Autumn 04:10
There's a hole in my heart where all the love goes all of my life I've tried to keep it closed All the ladies I've known have always treated it right it's my heart that's searching each day and each night Autumn come slowly, Autumn come quick I need a fix to help me deal with this Autumn turn brightly, Autumn that's it Color my life, and I'll pay the rent On the heels of fall comes a heat wave my heart, it keeps beating for a better way I have done what i can my decision's been made but my heart says resolve is just a day away Autumn come slowly, Autumn come quick I need a fix to help me deal with this Autumn turn brightly, Autumn that's it Color my life, and I'll pay the rent This time keeps on passing my hair is turning gray time alone can't heal me nor hearts sad refrain Autumn has gone the frost has settled in So long my darlin' I'll see you again

Chase the gold, cause someday you will be All you had, were dreams that could not be Play the grass, never regret when you lay down to die… Always what, you meant it to be They never get, what you wanted to see You've always had, the upper hand Chased it once, go for it twice Don't ever take, your own advice Try to be true, all the way through Chase the gold for you And I can’t say that I was due And I can’t say that it was through But I can say that you were cruel You led me like a fool Save the gold, cause its never so bright When you think, you gave all of your fight Hold on to her, all that you can, never let go of her hand Someday love, it will be all lost Your heart and thoughts, consume all the cost That sacred bond, corroded with time, and fell Truth is blind, leading the blind Scared and afraid, of what you might find Try to be true, all the way through Save the Gold for you And I can't say that I was due And I can't say that it was through But I can say that you were cruel You led me like a fool Spend the gold, it's worth more than you paid You've lost it all, so much more than you made She's left and gone, the "why" will drive you insane… Never what, you thought it would be She's left your hand, you no longer see Your left with pain, and feeling blue She get's to bend, all over the place While your left to rot, feeling disgrace It's no longer true, all the way through Spend the gold for you It'll fade, yet that song still reminds me of you That breath you take, like the times, that we once knew

Wine spills, the clock is still In time with our, shattered lives from open ties She, denies, the opened lie of many times, before the door has time to close My life has changed in so many ways My, mind, with moonlight views of family ways that strained the day She, said, she'd love me till the day is still, but now I cry for morning sky My life has changed in so many ways I will walk this new life Tonight is all mine I will walk this night alone, Tonight is all mine This talk will cost, it's never cheap This pain's still there, I see you weep Beside me still Forced to heal, how will I deal? My heart has broke and will not feel Anymore Tonight is all mine I will walk this night alone, Tonight is all mine

Why Lie 07:19
The vast and endless stormy maze In which it's beauty I will gaze Isn't that the way we see The sounds of yellow crazy moon Forces out a silent tune Isn't that the way it goes Empty is the starry sky With visions from a looming eye Isn't that the way it's told Farther through this trip we fall Sailing through the waves we haul Isn't that the way we know My world is here     Why lie with fear Feel your heart is free     Why lie to me Our kingdom and a world to come Our wisdom is a shining sun Isn't that the way we grow Falling down an endless dream Grabbing onto what it seems Isn't that the way we fear

These long, long, long October shadows These cold, cold, cold November nights How I long, long, long for you body Next to mine, all thru the night Over and over, the wind it howled The houses have blown down, Thru the towns The people they cried out,  As long as they could While all the young boys,  They understood; These long, long, long October shadows These cold, cold, cold November nights How I long, long, long for you body Next to mine, all thru the night The feeling of wanting, the knowing of sin The old men have followed, The women begin Singing and laughter, innocence lost Yet all the young boys They loose their trust; In these long, long, long October shadows These cold, cold, cold November nights How I long, long, long for you body Next to mine, all thru the night The days have grown shorter, the night it has come We long for those moments, When we were young Age has no meaning, For what we've become We're no longer young boys Who sing our songs

Those Eyes 03:44
Those deep blue eyes They tell such stories More than she'll share This love she gives me Oh dear, I'm here tell me your fears those eyes told me I'll hold you near I wish I held you tight in my arms the pulse of your heart so sweet and so strong And then I saw Into your soul I've never seen love Like yours before... Baby, don't cry I can see you before long dear we'll be just two

History 04:45
My ears have been ringing for days now, But that's not the story The theory of time and a place Where these things are real I couldn't escape times erased It's haunting me now The very thought of regret That's got nothing on me Sleepless nights and wasted days That's history Sleepless nights and wasted days I'm better today One hundred years from this day, Who's left to judge me I've kept my promise to date that's all I have This life has got ups and got downs I know that for sure I couldn't be happier now The future's so bright Sleepless nights and wasted days That's history Sleepless nights and wasted days I'm better today

Inch On 07:22
Look around at what I've seen, A man's life and his losing dreams My toy axe and saw at age 10, I couldn't fail, I would do it again Every cent I made from shining shoes, I'd give it to her just to sing the blues Without a grave in this cold mountain, I speak the truth and I'd say it again We'll climb, to the highest ridge Our hearts in our hands, lines drawn in the sand Our souls burn with life, as we bend in time, Slowly ticking from the bombs, in our mind Soon my time will come, to see my fallen ones Our hearts were torn, We kept our course, Love and scorn, Inch On Step back, take a look at your life, Tell me it's not going alright You never dream, from what I've seen, I've worked hard from the start of the scene Not slowing down, not losing heart, Stay the course right from the start Without a grave in this cold mountain, I speak the truth, and I'd tell it again We'll climb, to the highest ridge Our hearts in our hands, lines drawn in the sand Our souls burn with life, as we bend in time, Slowly ticking from the bombs, in our mind Soon my time will come, to see my fallen ones Our hearts were torn, We kept our course, Love and scorn, Inch On

Streetlights 05:31
Veronica Nathan stepped out of her lovers Manhattan apartment, just as the rain stated to fall. Her heels echoed on the stairs as she could hear the rain hitting the pavement outside, while the streetlights buzz and glow. Thoughts of him were filling her head, yet she felt guilt ridden for what she was doing. She looked down at her finger, where her wedding band should be, as she exited the building into the rainy night and started to hail a cab. The water splashed at her feet as her head swirled with confusion, to her, the road was empty, barren, yet the sirens and horns were all around her… "Excuse me miss, is this your cab?" and suddenly a cab was in front of her, door open, "Yes!" she snapped, and pushes the man to the side and sits quickly, door slamming behind her, hair soaked, mascara running down her cheeks. "Where ya headed", the cabby asks, and she simply says "drive." As the rain falls outside, she can hear distant thunder as the first flash of lightning catches her eye. The weather makes her think of how she got here, and why. As the cab races through the wet streets, lights blur and she can still smell him on her, it makes her cringe, and again, the cabby asks, "where to?!" She can barely say, all she wants to do is escape, run from herself, hide in the shadows. As the thunder claps, she is woken, so to say, and says "JFK, please." As those words leave her mouth, she is instantly drawn to her decision, where is she running to, and how will she know when she gets there. As the cab screeches to halt she is now faced with her future, past and present. The cabby, wreaking of stale bread and booze, turns to ask for his fare, she is lost in her head, words fail her, she can barely comprehend his request. Veronica reaches into her purse and hands him a twenty dollar bill, and exits into the rain once again. As she stands in front of the terminal, she is frozen with indecision. Tears stream down her face and mingle with the drops of rain, the thunder growing louder and stronger, do not ease her troubled mind. She is left where she started, listening to the streetlights buzz and the rain fall...
