Looking For You

A friend of mine pulled on my coat and sat me down before he said
"Son, find the one that you cannot replace.
I've been travelling around, moving about, man I've been everywhere
The problem is everywhere's the same
Bouncing around from town to town looking for you
I first seen you and it seemed to me that you had an entourage
Maybe it was the fog rolling in
Seaside girl with a see saw mind, hair blowing in the wind
She don't care cause her beauty is from within
Bouncing around from town to town looking for you
Will there come a day when you finally look my way
It's so hard to face you when you're running
Keep me on a line, will there ever come a time when you
Open up the door to your heart and let me in
That same old friend dropped me a line came around the other day
Asked me how it went "Did you find the One ?"
I told my friend that I'd been asking around
Put the word out on the street
Heard she hangs on to the things she likes to keep
Hanging around this crazy little town looking for you
Waiting for you to open up the door to your heart and let me in
Open up your heart and let me in

When We Were Young

When we're young we often think how nice it'd be if we were old
We could stay up all night long and do what we want not what we're told
When we're old we know better than to wish for certain age
When we're old we often think how nice it'd be if we were young
When we're young we like to play...play out in the yard
Do they do that anymore?
When we're young we like to laugh...laugh until we cry
and can't stop anymore
When we're old it ain't so funny thinking 'bout the things we think about
When we're old we often wish that we could laugh
Just like we did when we were young
When we're young we live forever
Ain't nobody or nothing gonna bring us down
When we're old we often wish that we could sleep
Just like we did when we were young
When we were young

Your Way Or The Highway
03:48

Hey Little Darling can you hear me now, can't seem to find us any common ground
Between love and hate is a narrow line, we both knew it was a matter of time
We broke down somewhere along the way, the spark of life left cooling in the shade
A part of you is a part of me
If you don't like me baby set me free
Chorus
If it's your way or the highway, I guess I have no choice
You know I love you baby but I'd rather keep my voice
If that's the way it's going to be you can show me to the door
If its your way or the highway then I'd better hit the road
We tried to dust off this old love affair, we thought our love might get us there
But I woke up early and I saw the light,I cant stay here for another night
Chorus
Hit the road that's what i'm gonna do
Hit the road to get as far away from you
Hit the road to settle down where some peace can be found
If it's your way or the highway then I'm gone
Come a little closer can you hear me now
Ain't gonna find us any solid ground
A part of you is apart from me
If you don't like me baby set me free
Chorus

The Story
02:40

As the crow flies out sure as the wind
You threw it all out and stepped right in
Cobra snake boogie and a bottle of wine
You've got your story and I've got mine
Lightning strikes just the lucky few
Never thought I'd ever meet a girl like you
Was it true love or all a waste of time
You've got your story and I've got mine
So many sunny day gone by, the times we laughed and the times we cried
Now it's cold and lonely nights, no matter who's to blame or who is right
Your part of the story is a lot like mine
I don't have to tell you how the story ends
Ain't gonna let it happen again
All we've got left is what we had in kind
You've got your story and i've got mine

You've been in love, seen it all so you try it again
Hoping that its different than before
Picture books and frames of mind , the places you've been
That colour the way that you think
Kaleidoscopes and Citadels, shrines from the past
That help us to remember who we are
Rolling hills and sudden thrils an avalanche choir
that sings to the power of love
When you seek what you haven't found does it hurt to have me around?
Can you tell by my tears that i'm still fumbling 'round
Tumbled up in love again
Surprising is the thing that stops a heart
It baffles me how we've come this this far
Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dumb are at it again
Their hearts on the mend
Cedar sparks and beauty marks, an old fashioned smile
Hides the sadness that you wear so well
Eloquence and elegance and victory drums
That speak to the power of love
We you see what you haven't found does it hurt to have me around ?
Can you tell by my tears that i'm still fumbling 'round
Tumbled up in love again

I can't believe the things that tell me are true
The way that I cried tells more of me than of you
What is there to lose that isn't gone without a trace
Since you've been gone I've had to fight to chase the race
Chorus
Gonna drink to the future, drink to the past
Drink to my health because it ain't gonna last
I've been down so long and I'm tired of being so far gone
Now I know what I'll do because the time has come
For me to forget about you and go and have some fun
I don't care about the rest of these troubles of mine
All I want to do is have a good time
Chorus

Porch Light
03:43
|

|
I'm so far away but i'm moving in the right direction
Cruising on down the road
I know you're wide awake so will you make this one exception
C'mon baby leave it on
Chorus
Leave the porch light on, leave the porchlight on
It's late at night and I'm coming home leave the porch light on
Rolling down that highway driving ninety miles an hour
Rolling on down the road
It's been so long since you and I have been together
Come on baby leave it on
Chorus
'Cause your a high stepping mama with stileto daggers to your thighs
A sweet loving woman with those devastating eyes
Leave it on leave them on
I'm so far away but I'm moving in the right direction
Rolling on down the road
It's been so long since you and I have been together
Come on baby leave it on
Chorus

It's On You
03:47
|

If you see me walking down the street with a big smile on my face
Don't be alarmed don't cross the street don't you know that's just my way
I've been working hard most of my life I can't seem to catch a break
I'm gonna keep on smiling and if you don't that's on you
Chorus
It's on you to choose to live your life in the darkness or the light
It's on you to choose to be afraid or to jump up to the fight
I've been working hard most of my life I can't seem to catch a break
I'm going to keep on smiling and if you don't that's on you
Some people live outside the bounds of peace and happiness
They can't seem to find no joy. How can they live like this
I've got battle scars, I drive a beat up car I'm gonna smile until the end
I'm going to keep on smiling and if you don't that's on you
Chorus

Next To You
03:01

When you hurt it hurts me too, when you fall down I fall too
I pick you up again , you turn around and do the same
When you turn out the lights to go to sleep at night
Can you see me in the dark next to you
We've been hanging around this house hanging out a little while
We could leave before the dawn and travel by the stars
When you turn out the light to go to sleep at night
Can you hear me in the dark next to you
And as long as you're here by my side
The world seems right again
While we wait for night to fall I know exactly where i am
when you hurt it hurts me too, when you fall down I fall too
You pick me up again , I turn around and do the same
When you turn out the lights to go to sleep at night
Can you hear me in the dark next to you
I'll be next to you
