Don't tell me baby
Cause I already know Things could be better, Not like this Broadway Show Always a reason There's no time to talk I don't want you leaving And I surely don't want you to walk [Chorus] Cause I never felt this way I feel before Is this the blues? Almighty blues I've never felt so lonely, since I lost my one and only I can't go the distance I can't close the door Feel alone in a crowd I can't take no more [Chorus] Don't need a reason To be in your game With a loser's luck It's nothin' but a cryin' shame [Chorus] |

(Andy Powell/Andy Powell)
Is this your final answer? The way you want it to be? It seems there'll be no chance for Peace, love and harmony I know you need no other There's no one else involved It makes it more the stranger, A mystery I can't solve. (Chorus) Love's an enigma, Seems like I'm blind. Love's an enigma, I'm losing my mind. I gave you all you wanted, Found opportunities. Played to your advantage, Looked out for you constantly. The summer in your heart Became an autumn wind. And tore our life apart. Lord, I want it back again. (Chorus) |

Reflecting back on the life that I once knew,
I'm pretty sure I could have changed a thing or two. In our restless youth, we were wild and running fast, And everyone I knew said “Boy, you'll never last.” I saw an ad for a player in a band. I took a train, guitar case in my hand. Like a dream, sweet music in my ears. Had a little luck on the course we were to steer. Never found another reason, you gave me something to believe in. You came and you saved me. Yes I got what I need in: Faith, Hope and Love. Faith, Hope and Love. I settled down with my family, that is true. I kept my faith in the music to guide me through. And life can change, if you really want it to. And you can change, too, just believe in what you do. Never found another reason, you gave me something to believe in. You came and you saved me. Yes I got what I need in: Faith, Hope and Love. Faith, Hope and Love |

If I seem a bit crazy
It's because these thoughts they crowd my mind Gets a little bit hazy These events distort my sense of time My heart's like a cave where the sun The sun refuse to shine Well, it's bleeding me dry It's a little like an ancient remedy Nowhere left to hide Leeching all my energy My thoughts turn to death When I'm in your company It used to be that our planets Were so perfectly aligned in our time If you could see that, now it's harder to bring back All your dreams and all you've left way behind there's been a subtle shift In the population's hearts and minds Is there something I missed' Something kinda hard to define Now we search for evidence Of the stranger in our midst It used to be that our planets Were so perfectly aligned in our time |

Flying over the Mississippi Delta,
John Lee Hooker on my mind, my faith could move a mountain. Heart full of Blues, Space and Time. Took a long train to Memphis, Stax of music on my mind. Toss a coin into a fountain, I kick my heels here for a time. Am I running away? Am I changing tracks? Am I jumping trains? I ain’t turnin’ back. Well, I’m making tracks from ya, baby, With godspeed and help from below. Blowin’ cold in Chicago, The sun has the blues and it just won’t shine. The riffs that really move me Make the hours and the minutes mark time. Took the blacktop to Texas, Stevie Ray was on my mind. Knelt down at the crossroads. Can’t get the devil off my mind. Am I running away? Am I changing tracks? Am I jumping trains? I ain’t turnin’ back. Well, I’m making tracks from ya, baby, With godspeed and help from below |

You call this together;
can’t you feel the time collide? I’m wondering whether I can keep my thoughts inside. Prime time, your time, I try so hard just to stay online. Hard time, my time, get the feeling that I’m left behind. You’re a step ahead when I’m right behind you. Just a difference in time. I look ahead when you’re looking back. It’s just the difference in time; our time. Did you send this SOS? Is this goodbye or a cry for help? Seem like a stranger, are you still the same? I’m wondering what you think I feel. Love hurts, love scars. Felt so good now it feels so bad. This time, our time. Can we mend what we once had? You’re a step ahead when I’m right behind you. Just a difference in time. I look ahead when you’re looking back. It’s just the difference in time; our time. Don’t want to lose ya; Is there a future? You’re a step ahead when I’m right behind you. Just a difference in time. I look ahead when you’re looking back. It’s just the difference in time; our time |

Ready the armies and try as we must,
opening wounds of yore. Under the banner, “In God We Trust,” aiming to settle the score. Come rain, come shine, all travesties we will repay. Come rain, come shine, till dawns that golden day. Crowns and thrones may perish and fall, kingdoms rise and wane. But our trust in holy books and relics prevails, and constant will remain. Come rain, come shine, all travesties we will repay. Come rain, come shine, till dawns that golden day. Rabbis and Popes, Mullahs in cloaks, in the end, they’re all the same. The past, the future and the time in between in the name of peace, re-writing the scene. Come rain, come shine, all travesties we will repay. Come rain, come shine, till dawns that golden day. Ready the armies and try as we must, under the banner, “In God We Trust |

Hard on you
But don't you think it's hard on me Leave me now just with this memory Hard on you But don't you think it's hard on me Leave me now just with this memory Sneak on now Before the dawn The sun comes to the sky Get out of bed Still out of my head I show you to the door Bluebird singing to the dove They're talking about flying high above And the mothership to a fatherland we go Hard on you But don't you think it's hard on me Leave me now just with this memory Gimme a sign and I play my role Nothing down the world Century they say we'll come To north to seek its way Bluebird singing to the dove They're talking about flying high above And the mothership to a fatherland we go Hard on you But don't you think it's hard on me Leave me now just with this memory Bluebird singing to the dove They're talking about flying high above And the mothership to a fatherland we go Hard on you But don't you think it's hard on me Leave me now just with this memory Leave me now just here to company |

Any fool must surely know
You plant a seed and it will grow, But only if you tend it well. It's as the wise men so do tell. The end will justify the means And all the riches of your dreams, But don't be tempted on the way. It's as the wise men so do say. Like trees, children change As they twist and turn. You suffer alone for the peace that you yearn. You can weep and moan, feel the need to run, But you're leaving behind a loaded gun. |
