Ragged Mile
03:30
|
|||
|
Those who walked strongly before me
Footsteps on the trail
Pulled out from the country
Rose up from the pale
What line do I use to reconcile
This sick unlisted regret
Its true I am always reminded
Of something I seem to forget
Dismiss the days of city life
Of cogging in the gears
Rejected all the colour
I saw since I was born
Sunk into the forest
Where I stayed for many years
Read the leaves that told the tale
Of roots that kept us warm
Walk a ragged mile
Angry man whose paths I've crossed
Rusted in between
The gentle man whose charm I lost
I was only seventeen
Seems that its a pity
I remember all I've seem
Gather up the innocence
Forgotten in a dream
Speak to me of benefits
Creating brotherhood
Now you're claiming what you hear
Is always understood
But your values lie in lies
Untold of order that's implied
Time to count the heads of those
Not with you on this ride
Walk a ragged mile

Everywhere Strength
02:43
|

|
I see that life is everywhere
Everywhere there's strength
Tossing me like a ship out
On a raging sea
In the tiny body I was given
Well I made some mistakes
When I let fear guide me
Didn't help me find the golden gates
And its hard to say I'm sorry
And I'm sorry Lord I am
Sorry for some of the things I have done
But not for who I am
Not for who I am
My love for you is everywhere
Everywhere there's strength
Tossing me like a ship out
On a raging sea
And its hard to say I'm sorry
And I'm sorry Lord I am
Sorry for some of the things I have done
But not for who I am
Not for who I am

Crowded Room
03:27
|
|||
|
Woke up in a crowded room
Voices inside my head
Heard a voice roar against the sheets
Alone inside my bed
Woke up in a crowded room
Woke up in a crowded room
Voices inside my head
Tore a path through the pages of time
Broken and desperate to put your life on the line
No more like the night before
Counting the times that you shine
Woke up in a crowded room
Woke up in a crowded room
Voices inside my head

She Was Alone
03:56
|
|||
|
Waisting away
In another part of town
Waiting on a good friend
Who won't let me down
Won't somebody come
Sit next to me
I swear I've seen you before
She was alone, she was alone
Waisting away
With my glass of gin
You're a sweetheart
To let me in
No one beside me
Nowhere to begin
I'm just someone, somewhere, praying
She was alone, she was alone

Song for Danko
04:39
|
|||
|
Endless highway, far behind
It still lingers on for us to find
Cost of living, price of dying
Endless heartstrings songs can bind
Fill your shirt with what you can
One more time, one more band
Who cares for you, who knows you care
Rumbling rain on my door.
Ruthless gale, August heat
What’s the game Rick? You gotta stay on your feet
Northern wishes line our street
Life’s been good to us all
Life’s been good to us all
Sing by night, wander by day
Cherish the road and it won’t fade
You give me reason to go out and play
A kiss for what I leave behind
Ruthless gale, August heat
What’s the game Rick? You gotta stay on your feet
Northern wishes line our street
Life’s been good to us all
Life’s been good to us all
SOLO
Dreams of Nashville, Simcoe Child
Carnival Hawk barking wild
Hit the big time in home town style
Singing his sweet sweet song all the while
Lived in the Country, Canadian soil
Lived in the Liquid brought to a boil
Nomadic spirits bound to be loyal
To what is bound to last
Endless Highway, far behind
It still lingers on in my mind.

Storm on the Horizon
04:51
|
|||
|
There's a storm coming on the horizon
On this bitter sweet lonely morn
Well I never had me much money
And the taverns have taken all my pay
Landlord mines a stone in my heart
But my blood is getting thicker by the day
There's a storm coming on the horizon
On this bitter sweet lonely morn
When I look back on my misgivings
There is only one sign I abide
My soul it belongs to the devil
He took it on the day that she died
There's a storm coming on the horizon
On this bitter sweet lonely morn
There's a storm coming on the horizon
On this bitter sweet lonely morn
Lord help me off the gallows
Left me in these dark streets alone
Nobody recognized me when I drifted
Down the river where I once called my home
There's a storm coming on the horizon
On this bitter sweet lonely morn
There's a storm coming on the horizon
On this bitter sweet lonely morn

House on the Hill
01:57
|
|||
|
Poor me a drink, make one for you
A room full of old friends where somethings always new
Meet you at the end of the word, we'll start all over again
May seem like nowhere, but you're treated like a friend
Everyone's equal here, but that's not the point
No one knows the difference when you role into this joint
You're on top of the world and there's no looking down
May seem like nowhere, but you're ten miles from town
Instantly you know you're gonna love it here
Let me tell you that it always feels like home
A room full of friends where nothing stands still
Together in the house on the hill
Solo
Instantly you know you're gonna love it here
Let me tell you that it always feels like home
A room full of friends where nothing stands still
Together in the house on the hill
Together in the house on the hill

Feel it in the Morning
03:46
|
|||
|
Her eyes are like a clear blue day
Her voice is a beam of light
Start shaking when you look my way
And I know we're gonna be alright
Feel it in the morning, feel it in the morning
Feel it in the morning, in the morning time
In the morning time.
Got to watch the things I say
And stay within your line of sight
Think about you when I pray
And I know we're gonna be alright
Feel it in the morning, feel it in the morning
Feel it in the morning, in the morning time
In the morning time.
Feel it in the morning, feel it in the morning
Feel it in the morning, feel it in the morning
Feel it in the morning, feel it in the morning
Feel it in the morning, in the morning time
In the morning time.
In the morning time, in the morning time
In the morning time, in the morning time
In the morning time, in the morning time
In the morning time, in the morning time
