Out in the garden, the rain's falling down Our clothes are soaked through to the skin There's mud on our hands, it's under our nails The trees slowly creek in the wind Are we pulling weeds, or are we pushing daisies? Sometimes it's just too hard to tell A rusted old spade cuts the ground in half Should we say hello or farewell? A garden of roses A garden of thorns A beauty that gives us hope A beauty itself forlorn Out in the garden, the sun's shining bright The warmth feels so good on our skin The mud on our hands washed clean by the rain Is this the end we begin? Did we pull the weeds, or did we push the daisies? Sometimes they both feel just the same Whether we pushed or we pulled makes no difference For still the garden remains A garden of roses A garden of thorns A beauty that gives us hope A beauty itself forlorn A garden of roses A garden of thorns A beauty that gives us hope A beauty itself forlorn

Drive 03:14
Pack your suitcase Feel your heart race To a new place Here we go Crack the windows Feel the wind blow Pull the doors closed Here we go Drive, drive, drive, drive C'mon, let's go Leave, leave, leave Leave this old town behind Fall Fall in love with the open road Trust it to lead you home Roads have worn grey Favorite songs play Comforting haze On we go Random silence Sleepy eyelids A brief respite On we go Drive, drive, drive, drive C'mon, let's go Leave, leave, leave Leave this old town behind Fall Fall in love with the open road Trust it to lead you home La da da da La da da da La da da da La da da Drive, drive, drive, drive C'mon, let's go Leave, leave, leave Leave this old town behind Fall Fall in love with the open road Trust it to lead you home

Lie To Me 04:11
Lie to me when the sun comes up Tell me you'll come back again Lay with me Between the sheets Even though we know it's the end I remember when I first looked in your eyes Two gorgeous, beautiful seas Two seas I found In which I could drown Accepting my fate happily Lie to me and say you won't go Tell me you'll stay here with me The stars in your eyes Light up the skies Your breath the gentlest breeze Lie to me Lie to me As your seas surround Me and I drown Lie to me

Temptation 03:32
Well the devil's ridin' shotgun But there's an angel in the back Well the devil's ridin' shotgun But there's an angel in the back And while the angel's got the map The devil's whip is mighty fast Well you love that home cookin' But there's a new place down the street Well you love that home cookin' But there's a new place down the street And while that home-cooked meal is nice That new place got a little spicy treat Oh, temptation, how sweet you seem With promises of wildest dreams Just a little taste Just a little touch Is all it takes Enough is just too much Well you got that pretty flower But then you see a little rose Well you got that pretty flower But then you see a little rose Don't mind the thorns like devil's horns Who cares for stead-as-she-goes? Oh, temptation, how sweet you seem With promises of wildest dreams Just a little taste Just a little touch Is all it takes Enough is just too much Oh, temptation, how sweet you seem With promises of wildest dreams Just a little taste Just a little touch Is all it takes Enough is just too much Oh, temptation, how sweet you seem With promises of wildest dreams Just a little taste Just a little touch Is all it takes Enough is just too much

Your toothbrush still remains Right where you left it last In case you come back home Like a heavy stone And I am but glass Why did things have to change From how they were before This house creaks and groans Oh, how I bemoan It's not you at the door This innocence This naivety Misplaced reverence What continuity The candle melts into A clear pool of wax I hold the candle still So wax doesn't spill I am just the glass This innocence This naivety Misplaced reverence What continuity Your toothbrush still remains Right where you left it last In case you come back home Like a heavy stone And I am but glass
7.
Oh, baby, I'm comin' home Oh, baby, I'm comin' home Please, please, please Please, honey, let me come home to you Oh, baby, it's been too long Oh, baby, it's been too long Been too long Been too long since I held you in my arms Oh, baby, the embers still burn Can't deny it Oh, baby, the embers still burn I can't fight it No, no, no Oh, baby, I'm comin' home Oh, baby, I'm comin' home Please, please, please Please, honey, let me come home to you Please, honey, let me come home to you

Virginia 05:03
The candle's burned out And darkness surrounds In fickle flesh we're bound And silence, it sounds Oh, Virginia, I'll wait for you Cross my heart and hope to die Oh, Virginia, I swear it's true You're the apple of my eye The foundation's cracked And my time has come My bags are packed Else we're undone Oh, Virginia, I'll wait for you Cross my heart and hope to die Oh, Virginia, I swear it's true You're the apple of my eye So here I await With wax and concrete My flesh gone to waste But my heart still beats Oh, Virginia, I'll wait for you Cross my heart and hope to die Oh, Virginia, I swear it's true You're the apple of my eye Oh, Virginia, I'll wait for you Cross my heart and hope to die Oh, Virginia, I swear it's true You're the apple of my eye You're the apple of my eye You're the apple of my eye You're the apple of my eye

I know that you're scared of where this might go Down that same old road that you've been before I know that you're scared of where this might lead Hold a rose too tight and it makes you bleed I know that you say that you're gettin' too old to fall And that you're wonderin' if you'll be happy after all But baby I'm standin' down here with arms wide open Just in case Just in case you do I know that you say the timin' ain't right Rain's fallin' down and it's dark as night I know that you say the timin's all wrong All wrong But the night is darkest just before the dawn I know that you say that you're gettin' too old to fall And that you're wonderin' if you'll be happy after all But baby I'm standin' down here with arms wide open Just in case Just in case you do I know that you say that you're gettin' too old to fall And that you're wonderin' if you'll be happy after all But baby I'm standin' down here with arms wide open Just in case Just in case you do I know that you say that you're gettin' too old to fall And that you're wonderin' if you'll be happy after all But baby I'm standin' down here with arms wide open Just in case Just in case you do

Mad House 05:14
She leans in close and I feel her breath As she whispers in my ear The sounds of a ghost that I thought had left The words so crystal clear But my hands are tied, so all I can do Is just rock back, to and fro Try as I might, all I see is you But you don't let me go There is love in the mad house Within the ghosts, the crazed, the confused There is love in the mad house The pursuing and the pursued Over again and over again I dream the same damn dream Locked in a pen and forced to spend Time listening to the screams But in the end I'm taken away And cradled in your arms Starting to mend, starting to wake You set fire to the stars There is love in the mad house Within the ghosts, the crazed, the confused There is love in the mad house The pursuing and the pursued Whoa, whoa, whoa Whoa, whoa, whoa Whoa, whoa, whoa Whoa, whoa, whoa There is love in the mad house Within the ghosts, the crazed, the confused There is love in the mad house The pursuing and the pursued There is love in the mad house Within the ghosts, the crazed, the confused There is love in the mad house The pursuing and the pursued She leans in close and I feel her breath As she whispers in my ear The sounds of a ghost that I thought had left The words so crystal clear

Farewell 03:41
Hands held tightly As we drive With open hearts and a twinkle in our eye The sun shines brightly On fifty-five And early start and just a few clouds in the sky Farewell Farewell Farewell Farewell Skip the pleasantries How things have changed One last drive and then to each our separate place No more remedies A kiss exchanged Oh, what could've been, a foolish thought embraced Farewell Farewell Farewell Farewell Farewell Farewell Farewell Farewell

Fly 04:50
I see the waves crash on your shores I hear the winds rattle your doors Hear the winds rattle your doors I see the stones crumble and fall I hear the trees snap in the squall Hear the trees snap in the squall Oh, we'll keep our feet on the ground And our heads in the sky Oh, but we won't ever come down Cuz it's too fun to fly I'll help you rebuild hand over hand Join my voice to yours, we'll see o'er the land We will sing o'er the land I'll help you plant seeds to nurture and grow Stand by your side in worry and woe Your side in worry and woe Oh, we'll keep our feet on the ground And our heads in the sky Oh, but we won't ever come down Cuz it's too fun to fly Oh, we'll keep our feet on the ground And our heads in the sky Oh, but we won't ever come down Cuz it's too fun to fly Oh, we'll keep our feet on the ground And our heads in the sky Oh, but we won't ever come down Cuz it's too fun to fly
13.
Momma, can't you see I'm tryin' so hard to be The man that you need me to be Papa, take my hand I'm tryin' so hard to stand On my own two feet in this land Oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh Brother, hear my words Don't leave my voice unheard The rain's left my vision blurred Sister, please believe I want to do right, you see But it's harder than I thought it would be Oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh Lift me up Help me fly To stars above Burnin' bright Lift me up Help me fly To stars above Burnin' bright Lift me up Help me fly To stars above Burnin' bright
