The Road Ahead

The highway is my home
This heart belongs out on the open road
Don’t matter where we go
One life to live we’ve got to take the
Chance that we still have to make it
The long way is my friend
Rich as a king with all this time to spend
The wrong way is a myth
There’s something new ‘round every turn
Let’s find out what it is
I can feel it in my bones
Let the highway take me home
The road ahead will find its end
Somewhere along the coast
Although it seems our hopes and dreams
Were lost there long ago
So pack your bags and don’t look back
Get ready for the rush
And say goodbye to our old lives
Adventure’s calling us
No longer do we fear
The mountains and the canyons that appear
We’ll find our own way
This life is ours for us to make
No matter what they say
I can feel it in my bones
Let the highway take me home
The road ahead will find its end
Somewhere along the coast
Although it seems our hopes and dreams
Were lost there long ago
So pack your bags and don’t look back
Get ready for the rush
And say goodbye to our old lives
Adventure’s calling us
Though the sun will rise again
One day our time will end
I’ll never find a joy more true
Than every moment next to you
The road ahead will find its end
Somewhere along the coast
Although it seems our hopes and dreams
Were lost there long ago
So pack your bags and don’t look back
Get ready for the rush
And say goodbye to our old lives
Adventure’s calling us

In The Dark

In the night outside by the river I lost my way
Saw the girl I almost kissed the other day
If the night had not been cold I swear
I would have been more bold
Only if the night was warmer I'd’ve stayed
In the forest by the river where she ran
To the edge of where the water meets the land
When I saw her lying down I swear
I couldn't make a sound
It's a feeling that I’ll never understand
In the dark
You can see
Close your eyes
Let it go
‘Cause only you know where
You need to be
Yesterday I saw her walking in the street
With her head down she was staring at her feet
When her body hit the ground
Oh there were people all around
In her chest a heart that couldn't play a beat
In the dark
You can see
Close your eyes
Let it go
‘Cause only you know where
You need to be
When I found her she was lying on the ground
With her eyes closed no she couldn't make a sound
When I took her by the hand
Oh that was when her life began
Fell the chains of which she always had been bound
In the dark
You can see
Close your eyes
Let it go
‘Cause only you know where
You need to be
And only you can make it so

Down By The River

Home
Down by the river
Down by the river with you
I’m home
Down by the river
Down by the river with you
Down by the river
Down by the river with you
Young and full of hope
Every week it seemed we’d go
Born deep within me
Grew a love I’d never known
And I’ve found a sense of
Freedom in it’s flow
Hear the sound of rushing water call me
Home
Down by the river
Down by the river with you
I’m home
Down by the river
Down by the river with you
Down by the river
Down by the river with you
No you can’t contain it
Ain’t no walls can hold it back
Protected and well respected
As the first but not the last
And I’ve found a sense of
Freedom in it’s flow
Hear the sound of rushing water call me
Home
Down by the river
Down by the river with you
I’m home
Down by the river
Down by the river with you
Down by the river
Down by the river with you

It's Never Too Late
03:45
|

Open up the gates and let it go
My whole life’s been leaning on the door
Waitin’ for someone to turn the key
For the moment that I always knew I’d see
But I’m not sure I’ll ever leave this bed
That whole world is trapped inside my head
And the feelings that I never could explain
Oh I couldn’t tell you how to ease the pain
‘Cause I was broken
I was angry
I needed someone to tell me
That I was okay
And that it’s alright
It’s never too late
All I need to do is jump the fence
But the voices in my head ain’t makin’ sense
And the memories that I’d hoped would carry me
They could open up the door and set me free
‘Cause I was broken
I was angry
I needed someone to tell me
That I was okay
And that it’s alright
It’s never too late
And I was hopeless I was empty
I needed something to fill me
And I was helpless I was falling
I needed someone to lift me
‘Cause I was broken
I was angry
I needed someone to tell me
That I was okay
And that it’s alright
It’s never too late
Every day is started with a choice
To be the one who hears or be the voice
Please hold on to this promise keep it true
You be the voice for me and I for you
‘Cause I was broken
I was angry
I needed someone to tell me
That I was okay
And that it’s alright
It’s never too late
And if you’re hopeless
And you’re worn through
I’ll be the someone to tell you
That it’s okay
And it’s alright
It’s never too late

The Things We'll See

The things we’ll see
Just come with me
We’ll drive all night
Through dawn’s first light
The only stopping is for snacks and gasoline
And maybe some other things
Don’t bring no pain
No ball and chain
We’ll leave without
Our fear and doubt
Nothing is ever gonna take this one away
From me and you
So come on let’s go
Just you and me
You never know
The things we’ll see
The blacktop’s old
Two lines of gold
Will lead the way
Day after day
I look around and I’m in love with every view
When I’m with you
So come on let’s go
Just you and me
You never know
The things we’ll see
But when we go back home
And when the feelings fade
We can talk about the things we’ve seen
And all the places that we’ve been
But there’s a moment I cannot replace
It’s the moment when I saw your face
So come on let’s go
Just you and me
You never know
The things we’ll see
So come on let’s go
Just you and me
You never know
The things we’ll see
