MY MISTAKE
I’m in a dream I’m flying over hills,
I see it shining in the hay.
There’s something golden in my hands,
And then I go and let it slip away.

With eyes that are broken, my feelings are spoken.
It’s time for the waters to break.
I know where I should be, and I’m gonna make it there.
I won’t let you be my mistake.

The days go by like chapters from a book,
I’m skipping pages to the end.
There’s a story that I’ll never know,
The one about the man who makes amends.

With eyes that are open, my feelings are spoken.
It’s time for the waters to break.
I know where I should be, and I’m gonna make it there.
I won’t let you be my mistake.

The moment’s uncovered, I must seize the day.
This goal that I hold high, won’t let it be lost for all time.

With eyes that are open, my feelings are spoken.
It’s time for the waters to break.
I know where I should be, and I’m gonna make it there.
I won’t let you be my mistake.

With eyes that are broken, my feelings are spoken.
It’s time for the waters to break.
I know where I should be, and I’m gonna make it there.
I won’t let you be my mistake.
My mistake baby

LIE #1
You said you weren’t a good liar.
That was lie #1.
You said your partying days were over,
but the party’s just begun.

You said it was a friday thing, a shot or two of booze.
And in the middle of tuesday, you’re drunk and can’t find your shoes.
You let all your lovers go, you swore to God it was true,
The phone is ringing off the hook, with dudes looking for you.
You whisper things I’ve never heard.
But the thing is baby, I believed every word.

You said you weren’t a good liar.
That was lie #1.
You said your partying days were over,
but the party’s just begun.
Lie #1, lie #1
oh help me now.

It seems you’ve been hangin’ out, in some very sketchy places.
It seems you and the cops babe, on a first name basis.
You whisper things I’ve never ever heard.
But the thing is baby, I believed every word.

You said you weren’t a good liar.
That was lie #1.
You said your partying days were over,
but the party’s just begun.
Now a thousand lies later,
look at the damage you’ve done,
‘Cuz I believed you honey
I believed lie #1.
Lie #1, lie #1, lie #1…

NO SLACK
Somebody told me that you had changed,
Since the day my life has become estranged.
Well that’s ok, you just put on that face,
But in your heart I know of another place.
So here we are, now we’re just worlds apart,
But were we any closer at the start?
Something so alone,
you want somebody, but you’re still on your own.

(Oh baby) Now that the feeling’s gone,
I believe that I’ve done no wrong.
‘Cuz I’ve tried hard to get you back baby,
But you just wouldn’t cut me no slack.
Oh no, yeah

Now that it’s gone, now that we’ve walked away,
Now that we’ve both started a brand new day.
I’m lookin’ back, I’m lookin’ at your face,
I’m lookin’ and all I see is empty space.
So here we are, now we’re just worlds apart,
But were we any closer at the start?
Something so alone,
you want somebody, but you’re still on your own.
(Oh baby) Now that the feeling’s gone,
I believe that I’ve done no wrong.
‘Cuz I’ve tried hard to get you back baby,
But you just wouldn’t cut me no slack.

But I gotsta’ have ya,
Now that I know the cost baby.
Something’s gonna change my mind,
But I don’t have the luxury of time no more.
Oh, no more time baby

Now that the feeling’s gone,
I believe that I’ve done no wrong.
‘Cuz I’ve tried hard to get you back baby,
But you just wouldn’t cut me no slack.

Now that the feeling’s gone,
I believe that I’ve done no wrong.
‘Cuz I’ve tried hard to get you back baby,
But you just wouldn’t cut me no slack.
Oh no
Just wouldn’t cut me no slack now
Now that the feeling’s gone
Oh no more time baby
Yeah now that the feeling’s gone

UNBROKEN
If I lived and breathed before you loved me,
I don’t recall.
If I walked around at all I was in bits and pieces,
Of a jagged heart.
You kissed me and every piece back into place,
Every pain got erased.
Held me up to the sunlight,
Now it feels like:

No one ever left me out in the rain,
Cold words that remained unspoken.
I never got lost, spent years in the dark,
‘Cuz you’re here now my heart’s unbroken.
When I see you smile, feel my soul again
I’m unbroken.

If I doubted the power of love baby, now I understand.
I thank God for everyday that you touch me like heaven,
Inside your warm hands.
In this world sometimes the only thing that’s real,
Is the way you make me feel.
Baby the change is day to night
I swear it’s like:

No one ever left me out in the rain,
Cold words that remained unspoken.
I never got lost, spent years in the dark,
‘Cuz you’re here, now my heart’s unbroken.
When I see you smile, feel my soul again
I’m unbroken.

I still see the night,
fell into your eyes,
And when we made love it felt like the first time.

No one ever left me out in the rain

No one ever left me out in the rain,
Cold words that remained unspoken.
I never got lost, spent years in the dark,
‘Cuz you’re here, now my heart’s unbroken.
When I see you smile, feel my soul again
I’m unbroken

SO IT’S LIKE THAT
I was under the impression that everything was cool,
I get the feeling now I’m played for a fool.
So it’s like that, so it’s like that.
How easy it is, you break my heart again.

There’s a train that’s runnin’ and I’m tied to the tracks,
The things you say it’s too late to take them back.
So it’s like that, so it’s like that.
How easy it is, you break my heart again.
Oh yeah

You took my best possession to the corner to hock it,
I keep on feelin’ your hands are in my pocket.
So it’s like that, so it’s like that.
How easy it is, you break my heart again.
So it’s like that, so it’s like that.
How easy it is, you break my heart again.
Oh yeah

WAITING FOR ME
Maybe I was wishin’, for a little bit more,
Even though I didn’t want to be the one to kick down that door.
Baby I was prayin’, a prayin’ to believe,
There was something for, something more, out there waiting for me.
‘Cuz maybe I’m crazy, for chasing that dream.
It hasn’t been easy, like some make it seem.
I can’t help but feeling, my best is yet to be,
‘Cuz somewhere there’s something better waiting for me.

Should I just be happy, with nowhere to go?
And no mystery calling me to the great unknown?
Should I keep pretending, pretending to see?
To live a lie - live and die, no that just ain’t me.
‘Cuz maybe I’m crazy, for chasing that dream.
It hasn’t been easy, like some make it seem.
I can’t help but feeling, the best is yet to be,
‘Cuz somewhere there’s something better waiting for me.

You can call me greedy, come along or leave me,
There’s somewhere that I gotta go yeah.
But I don’t know the reason, but that’s what keeps me breathin’.
It’s the only thing I’ve ever known, yeah!

Maybe I’m crazy, for chasing that dream.
It hasn’t been easy, like some make it seem.
I can’t help but feeling, my best is yet to be,
‘Cuz somewhere there’s something better waiting for me.

No it hasn’t been easy, like some make it seem
Yeah I’m crazy for chasin’ that dream

No that just ain’t me
Like some make it seem

But somewhere there’s something better waiting for me

NEVER SAY GOODBYE
And I’m older now than I used to be,
And I’ve paid my dues and spent my dime.
And there’s nothing that I haven’t seen, ooh
But still I think about you every night.

Rain’s coming down
I’m standing in the street.
I thought I knew it all
Baby, I don’t know a thing.
Tried to put you in your place, I told you many lies.
But I never meant to hurt you baby, yeah.
I said a lot of things, but I’ll never say goodbye.

And when a pretty girl smiles at me,
And I can’t think of anything to say,
Makes me think about you and me,
Makes me think of how everything has changed.

Rain’s coming down
coming down on me,
I thought I knew it all
baby I don’t know a thing.
Tried to put you in your place, I told you many lies.
But I never meant to hurt you baby, yeah.
I said a lot of things, never said goodbye.
Oh never said goodbye
I never said good night.

Tried to put you in your place
I told you many lies,
I never meant to hurt you baby, yeah,
I said a lot of things, I never said goodbye.

Never say goodbye, yeah.
Oh no,
Never say goodbye, yeah.

MOUNTAIN TIME
You drive West on 80 and it won’t take too long,
‘Til the road starts climbing up to mountain time.
There’s a girl I know there, she lives free and easy,
And she shows me wonders and she takes my mind.
And she’s wild as eagles,
She’s as sweet as honeysuckle,
Her life’s flowing like a mountain stream.
And she takes me somewhere,
And it’s good to be there,
And she pulls me into her bright golden wing.

Now I hate the city and I love the country,
And I love that feeling on that mountain high.
And that girl is waiting, but she won’t wait too long,
So I drive all night to that clear blue sky.
And she’s wild as eagles,
She’s as sweet as honeysuckle,
Her life’s flowing like a mountain stream.
And she takes me somewhere,
And it’s good to be there,
And she pulls me into her bright golden wing.

I can feel it in the wind blow
I can feel love flow
And I’ll be there when the morning comes, yeah.

And she’s wild as eagles,
She’s as sweet as honeysuckle,
Her life’s flowing like a mountain stream.
And she takes me somewhere,
And it’s good to be there,
And she pulls me into her bright golden wing.

Bright golden wing

And she’s wild as eagles,
She’s as sweet as honeysuckle,
Her life’s flowing like a mountain stream.
And she takes me somewhere,
And it’s good to be there,
And she pulls me into her bright golden wing.

Bright golden wing

PAIN AND SORROW
Sparkle as the tears come
They glitter as they fall
You sacrifice your love
For the wonder of it all
But I will, and you won’t
And I deal, and you don’t, yeah

Livin’ on pain and sorrow
Until you find another way
Livin’ on pain and sorrow
Until I find another way

Where’s your silver lining?
Where’s your long lost friend?
The emptiness is shining
From somewhere deep within
But I will, and you won’t
And I deal, and you don’t yeah

Livin’ on pain and sorrow
Until you find another way
Livin’ on pain and sorrow
Until I find another way
Livin’ on pain and sorrow
Until you find another way
Livin’ on pain and sorrow
Until I find another way

No I…go on

It’s your life baby
‘Til you find another way

Go on…oh yeah

Pain and sorrow
Pain and sorrow
Pain and sorrow
Find another way

TAKIN’ THE HIT
Yes I’m takin’ the hit, payin’ the price
Sometimes in love the ending ain’t nice.
It’s layin’ me down, I’m dyin’ a bit
I’m crying all night, yes I’m takin’ the hit.

Hey it’s my problem, I’m not blaming you
And I wasn’t love, you’re just passing through.
And I won’t complain, your kiss wasn’t con,
Something has moved you, you’re moving on.
I’m feelin’ so bad just to think about you.
You’re not coming back there’s nothin’ I can do.
‘Cuz I’m takin’ the hit, payin’ the price
Sometimes in love the ending ain’t nice.
It’s layin’ me down, I’m dyin’ a bit
I’m crying all night, yes I’m takin’ the hit.

Now I tell myself, someday I won’t care,
Each day I wake up and you’re still there.
I’m hiding the truth, from people I see,
Know something’s wrong and it’s killin’ me.
I’m feeling so bad just to think about you,
You’re not coming back there’s nothin’ I can do.
Yes I’m takin’ the hit, payin’ the price;
Sometimes in love the ending ain’t nice.
It’s layin’ me down, I’m dyin’ a bit
I’m crying all night, yes I’m takin’ the hit.

Yes I’m takin’ the hit, babe, payin’ the price,
Sometimes in love the ending ain’t nice.
It’s layin’ me down, I’m dyin’ a bit
I’m crying all night, yes I’m takin’ the hit, yeah

UNDER THE RADAR
You were sinking lower,
Just to ride a little high.
You were in the ground to taste a bluer sweeter sky.
Something’s got to give, yeah - nothing lasts this long.
It’s hard to hear you say,
Your breaking up, your signal’s fading.
Now you’re caught under the radar.
Peace of mind, a space in time,
A part of you you’ll never find.
Now you’re caught under the radar.

Breathe a little faster,
This could be your time.
You can’t be honest with yourself while living out that same old lie.
I can’t reach for something you won’t let me see.
It’s hard to hear you say,
Your breaking up, your signal’s fading.
Now you’re caught under the radar.
Peace of mind, a space in time,
A part of you you’ll never find.
Now you’re caught under the radar.

It’s hard to hear you say,
Your breaking up, your signal’s fading.
Now you’re caught under the radar.
Peace of mind, a space in time,
A part of you you’ll never find.
Now you’re caught under the radar.

SICK IN LOVE
I should be medicated, I’m debilitated,
There’s nothing I can do.
Put me where they find ‘em, deep in some asylum,
Let me forget about you.
I’m absolutely, positively,
sick in love with you.

Here’s the situation, I need an operation,
Bring me a doctor and a nurse.
Give me anesthetic, isn’t this pathetic?
They are tellin’ me it could be worse.
I’m absolutely, positively,
sick in love with you.
I’m absolutely, positively,
sick in love with you.
Sick in love

All my friends said to leave her,
It’s too late, I got the fever.
My brother said, “Forget her now”
But they never met her.
And after all this time
This ain’t getting’ better.

Now I can’t hack it, I need a straitjacket,
I love you and I can’t stop.
I need a pill now,
I'm truly truly ill now, any second I will drop.
I’m absolutely, positively,
sick in love with you.
I’m absolutely, positively,
sick in love with you.
I’m sick in love
I’m absolutely, positively,
sick in love with you.

Oh I’m sick in love baby, oh no…
Oh I can’t stop baby

THE HARD WAY
I’ve known this day was gonna come,
Will I be the one, will I be around?
I can feel something heavy on your mind,
Coming through again, coming down again.

I don’t know what I can do.
Got all those roads in front of ya,
Which one will you choose?
Break down, break through, break anything you want.
Say that’s not you
holdin’ the world up.
Every time you give, everything you got, you just wanna stop.
Think you’re going the wrong way.
You were never lost, didn’t know the cost,
Then you still get down, do it the hard way.

Love is so easy to refuse,
Easier to quit, easiest to lose.
You never let it make any sense,
Always hiding behind, all those words never said.
I’ve stood here as long as I can stand.
Now the cards are in your hands,
My heart is in your hands
Break down, break through, break anything you want.
Say that’s not you, holdin’ the world up.
Every time you give, everything you got, you just wanna stop.
Think you’re going the wrong way.
You were never lost, didn’t know the cost,
Then you still get down, do it the hard way.

Goin’ the hard way
oh yeah

Break down, break through, break anything you want.
Say that’s not you, holdin’ the world up.
Every time you give, everything you got, you just wanna stop.
Think you’re going the wrong way.
You were never lost, didn’t know the cost,
Then you still get down, do it the hard way.

Do it the hard way
Do it the hard way
Do it the hard way
Oh yeah
