Devil on the Road
Time is out of mind
When you drive the bottom line
You know
Turning back the time
You leave it all behind
When you go
Tugging at the ties
That are tightening all the time
Looking for the signs
That have been there all the time
You know
Baby, I don’t know
Not any more
I can see myself
I feel like I’m coming home
And I’ll be right there
And I don’t know
If I lay down low
Here’s the funny thing
When you step outside your dream
You’re home
Lightening lights the sky
Thudner in the night
On the road
Static on the line
A hundered thousand miles
To go
The sunrise rises up
The road goes on and on
And you’re home
Baby I don’t know
Not any more
I can see myself
I feel like I’m coming hoem
And I’ll be right there
And I don’t know
If I lay down low
There are shadows on the road (x4)
Baby I don’t know
Not any more
I can see myself
I feel like I’m coming home
And I’ll be right there
And I don’t know
If I lay down low
I’m the devil on the road
I’m the devil on the road
The Shade of Trees
Light comes up and finds the day
Sun's too bright so you turn away
Shadows pass along the way
You are here and here I’ll stay
And here I’ll be
Underneath
The passing of the memories
And the shade of trees
Sun comes out upon the fields
Stretching out along hte hill
She is dancing along the sky
She brings with her the morning light
And here I’ll be
Underneath
The passing of the memories
And the shade of trees
A Day Like Today
You kept me alive
All this time
You kept me alve
You turned on the light
I can feel that you’re near like the sun coming out
I don’t know when you go there are clouds all around
Playing games in the rain but I’ll find my way out
Running down to the ground but I’m on the right track
Yeah!
You kept me alive
All this time
You kept me alive
You turned on the light
On a day like today
No sign of rain
We change but stay the same
You kept me alive
All this time
You kept me alive
You turned on the light
All these years I came near but I did not begin
All this time passing by but I didn't get in
Now I find piece of mind on the road to the hill
Lay me down now i’m found and the world becomes still
On a day like today
No sign of rain
We change but stay the same
You kept me alive (x4)
Late Last Summer
It’s a long road home
Where do you go?
The sun’s coming up
With or without love
You’re too far in
It’s too far out
It’s too far up
And a long way down
Late last summer
Behind the wall
You had it all
Late last summer
Before the fall
You had it all
Turning over
Turning in your sleep
All your dreams are
Ten foot deep
You’ve been driving
Driving in the rain
Through all the places
That all look the same
Late last summer
Behind the wall
You had it all
Late last summer
Before the fall
You had it all
Late last summer
Behind the wall
You had it all
Late last summer
Before the fall
You had it all
Skimming Stones
Everything will change
Nothing stays the same
End of the things we know
Beginning of the things that we don’t
East of everything
West of the wind
Still the sun shines through
Every time i’m with you
When the sun comes out
We’re skimming stones
When the sun comes out
We know we’re home
A rainy day in May
One last role to play
I won't repeat the mistakes
I’ve already made
When the sun comes out
We’re skimming stones
When the sun comes out
We know we’re home
She Keeps Me On
I’m a stranger at the threshold
You are a flutter of wings
The sun is over the hill
I’m unlearning everything
On the edges of a new dawn
You feel you’ve reached the end
Well there’s no end to anything
Just begining again
And I dont know why
She keeps me on
And I don’t know why
She keeps me on
On and on
She keeps me on
On and on
She keeps me on
I’m a stranger at the table
I will go anywhere
I could tell a thousand strangers
But no-one would care
Well she carries me onward
She leads me home
Well, you just have to let it all go
Life is an open road
And I dont know why
She keeps me on
And I don’t know why
She keeps me on
On and on
She keeps me on
On and on
She keeps me on
This life
Is burning
Brighter than eyes
I am learning
This life
Is changing
Well no-one gets out alive
I think we’ll make it
So lead me on
Lead me on
On and on
She keeps me on
On and on
Lead me on
On and on
She keeps me on
On and on
Lead me on
On and on....
Into the Blue
The weather turns over the hills
We’re heading in
The rain falls down over the fields
The day begins
We should shelter from the rain
But then again
Something changes in the clouds
Let the rain come down
The moon is rising over you
And you send yourself to sleep
You’re sailing into the blue
But this is not a dream
The sun comes up between the trees
Smiling at everything
Summer sun on autumn leaves
Bigger hopes on little wings
The moon is rising over you
And you send yourself to sleep
You’re sailing into the blue
But this is not a dream
Into the blue
Headlights
I’m a hare in the headlights
Staring out into the night
I’m a voice that is whispering
Don’t keep yourself locked up inside
I know
Don’t you think I know
There’s a song on the radio
Echoes of a bygone age
We sing along on the precipice
Aching for forgotten days
I know
Don’t you think I know
They draw you near
Searchlights disappear
Well I’m standing here
Headlights appear
A blue grey moon is over you
Moonlight is over the feilds
Driving into the heartland
You don’t know what you think or you feel
I know
Don’t you think I know
We are lights that light the way
You follow because you lead
There is no choiuce buty moving on
The ending is to begin
I know
Don’t you think I know
They draw you near
Searchlights disappear
Well I’m standing here
Headlights appear
Down Comes the Night
Washing blowing on an October line
Sun shines through the trees
Green leaves against the deep blue sky
I’ve come to find
The rest of my life
Autumnal slumbers and awakenings in spring
The sun’s mirror glow
Hurts my eyes and soon the light
Will fade and we’ll head inside
And sit by the fire
Oh down comes the night
We come alive
It’ll be alright
Down comes the night
His thoughts carried him over the rooftops
Through the park to the start
Further to go it’s a long road
The journey’s not lost, just unknown
Here we go
Still waters will carry you nowhere
A cycle without a chain
Colours are cast like a 50’s photograph
The last of the sun before the rain
It’ll be back again
Oh down comes the night
We come alive
It’ll be alright
Down comes the night
Dynamo
You know that the past is a forgeign place
You’ve got to let yourself up off the hook
You can lean on any shoulder
Don’t leap before you take a second look
I will lay your burden down
It’s just a whisper in June
Nothing’s holding you back now
But the whisper in you
It’s been a long, long time since you lit up inside
Dynamo
You are not a stranger to yourself
Even when the night is falling hard
When the shadows grow in corners
Don’t afraid of the dark
I will lay your burden down
It’s just a whisper in June
Nothing’s holding you back now
But the whisper in you
It’s been a long, long time since you lit up inside
Dynamo
Just watching the clouds rolling over me
And no I don’t really know
What goes around will come around
We connect like dominoes
I will lay your burden down
It’s just a whisper in June
Nothing’s holding you back now
But the whisper in you
It’s been a long, long time since you lit up inside
Dynamo
Long Road Home
I know you and you know me
I don’t know what you can be
I’ve got to get up off the kitchen floor
I don’t belong here anymore
It seems so long since I’ve been here
A hundred thousand million years
The dawn is rising, yes I saw
It’s brighter than I ever thought
I don’t know what you’ve been told
Just mind the low sun when you go
It’s a long road home
Finding faces in the clouds
Been lying on the grass for hours
They stay there until they’re gone
They’re there until they’re not
I’m the singer, not the song
From here the hills hide the sun
It’s soon to rise above
The boats are going out today
That’s all I have to say
Drive safe on your way
I don’t know what you know
Just mind the low sun when you go
It’s a long road home
