In troubled times
It's hard to get straight answers
Between the lines
That border wrong or right
The homeland cries
It struggles with confusion
But this feelin' still remains
Like shelter from the rain

We live of faith
In the hands of those who guide us
And tear the page
On the fear we left behind
We set the pace
For every born survivor
Don't turn the other way

You're distant honey - Mr. Cool
You lock up your feelings - nobody's fool
You're facing the world
With your fist clenched tight
Tough guy - tough guy facing the fight
Don't forget to remember
She's coming up in back
Even you surrender
Surrender to her sweet attack

Ambush - ambush come from behind
Ambush - ambush capture your mind
Ambush - ambush I'm in disguise

Who was with you - where you been?
Baby it can't be this again
I can't cool it 'cos I can't win it with you
Words like punches - things we said
Under the belt and in the head
Down for the count in a cold cold bed
Beat by jealousy

Jealousy - jealousy
Stanglehold - love can't breathe
Let me be - set me free
Jealousy

You won't hear what I imply
What you say - I won't buy

Heavy heart think of yesterday
And you're torn apart
Thinking of the ways it was easier to smile
More than today love grew wild
Heavy heart like a perfect stranger
You make it hard
Taking all the blame - still you hear the sound
Calling your name - troubles coming down
Too heavy

Turn it around
It's pressing me down
Heavy heart
This time I find
It weighs on my mind
Heavy heart

Wake me up with laughter
Wrap me in your arms
This ain't no morning after
Never been so warm
It didn't take so long
For us to feel this way
Can a good thing last
Longer than a day?
Where do we take it now
Now that we caught fire?
Will something greater grow
Out of this desire?
Should I drop my guard
At the risk of being used?
But the way you do those things to me
How can I refuse?

Johnny Moon
Dreams in class
Answers the question before it's asked
You can see Johnny but he's not here
Nobody saw Johnny disappear
Mother says his mama's too easy
Letting him come and go as he pleases
Walls and windows won't do it
Lock the door
Johnny goes right through it
It's so hard to get his attention
When he's out there in another dimension
Johnny I wanna follow you outside

I been trying a long long time
To write a love letter, perfect lines
What I want to say is hard to find
No cliches or tired rhymes
But words turn on me
Hard as I try
It's your look of love
I can't describe
I'll use the language of love
You'll understand what I say
Words are never enough
The language of love is the only way
Bad bad heartaches
When I'm alone
Fighting with feelings

K.C.
Take another sip-o-wine
You gotta get her off your mind
You can talk about your heartbreak to me
Ok, K.C. I wish it could be easy
Just another lesson of the heart
K.C.
We were feelin' out of place
So we made our own escape
In that New York cafe place to be
Outsider, traveler you and me
We were laughing about it
Kept us out of reach
I won't forget that night

Say so long baby
Turn around
Loneliness hits you
Emptiness closes you down
Alone in his car
You think of his name
Took part of you with him
It won't be the same
You love to relive
The love that he gives
You love to recall
The rush of it all
He woos you so sweet
Then kicks on the heat
You're willing, you're hot
Give him all that you got
Lonely woman gets so cold

Deep inside this city night
There's only you and me
I can only hear your voice
I am all you see
Baby, I love you
Born to be mine
I'lI say forever
You say it all the time
Take it like a vow
We're together now
Together now, together now
Together now, together now
In this world so fast, nothing lasts
But I can feel it, we're gonna make it
Together
Now you're winning in big town trade

Young girl feeling pretty wild
Young girl in the band
Rolling into another town
Living the best they can
Across the street, a music store
She gotta find a brand new axe
And there he was, that blue guitar
He was staring her right back
Staring her right back

She held him close and he felt just fine
He warmed her up - she know he was just right
Together they cut right through the night
