When the Mood Takes You 03:24
lyrics

When the Mood Takes You One day, when the mood takes you You'll run away to search for your dream In some ways, should the mood take you You'll chase down the stream heading out to sea And, some day if the mood makes you Blind sided, will you still see me? Just praying the mood not take you away from me, oh no How can you be so lost in the light? How can you be so lost in the light? Then comes that day when the mood takes you You'll run on home remember your dream But on that day I'll have gone searching out at sea Then comes that day when the mood takes you You'll run on home remember your dream But on that day well I'll have gone searching out at sea, yeah out to sea Won't find me as the mood takes you Lost in the light you will stay How could the mood ever not take me? Take me away, take me away How can you be so lost in the light? How can you be so lost in the light? As the mood takes you As the mood takes, takes you away

Who is Really Fooling Who? 04:47

Who is fooling who? Who is really fooling who, when the chips are down and you head for town? Don't recognise the games you play are just wasting time and they're pulling me down? So, who is really fooling you, when your dreams are broken and your pockets empty? Won't you ever realise that this time you waste is not a time of plenty? Are you saying nothing now, 'cause no words can right your sorry fable? Are you never gonna turn around, 'cause although you lost there's always one more table Won't you ever realise, that you fool yourself with your guilty pleasure? Maybe when you come on home you'll unlock the door, find your only treasure Who is really fooling who, when the chips are down and you head for town? Don't you recognise the pain, the waste of time it's still just pulling me down? Who is really fooling you, when the dreams you stole are running on empty? Won't you ever realise that this time you waste is not a time of plenty? Are you saying nothing now, 'cause no words can right your sorry fable? Are you never gonna turn around, although you lost yourself there's always one more table And, won't you ever realise, that you fool yourself with that guilty pleasure? Maybe when you come on home, babe you'll lock the door, find your only treasure Are you saying nothing now, 'cause no words can write your sorry fable? Are you never gonna turn around, although you lost yourself there's always one more table And, won't you ever realise, that you fool yourself with that guilty pleasure? Maybe when you come on home you'll unlock the door, find your only treasure Who is really fooling who, when the chips are down but you're back from town?

Bridges (Crossed and Burned) 03:46
lyrics

Bridges (Crossed and Burned) She is down on her luck, with no place to turn Embedded with waifs and strays, her skin patched with bruises and burns The clothes on her back are tattered and torn She sleeps in the doorways, where drunks spit out their cold scorn A lonely young man, with no money to spare Staggered to see her pain, not sure if he should care He stretches out his hand, clings to the hope that she can stand But her fear backs her into the shadows A helpless girl in a hopeless land He's a stranger to luck got no place to turn Embedded with the waifs and strays, his sin was only to yearn The coat on his back is matted and worn He sleeps in old boxes, wishing he'd never been born If only somebody, with a minute to spare Would offer some tea and their hand, to prove that somebody cares So he reaches out to touch them, Grasps at hope but he can't stand And their guilt drags them out of the shadows Their focus sharp on their homemade plans What do you do when you lose your way? How do you cope with that pain? In a world that just turns away Well bridges are crossed and bridges are burned You know that the truth is the proof It's a lesson that never is learned You know that the truth is the proof A lesson that never is learned

The Sea Refuses No River 03:15
lyrics

Just as all rivers will flow to the sea, So forgiveness must come easily Though your hands are tied today, You'll be hand in hand tomorrow That's got to come easily, In simpler times it seems you're like the river, Well that must flow easily Won't it feel the way it feels to a stranger by the water You forgive her anything, You can give her everything The sea refuses no river, they all flow easily, they flow because they're free The sea to the river like a stranger must seem If you really can’t forgive her then it won't come easily, you know it don't come easily Just as all rivers will flow to the sea, so forgiveness must come easily Though you wash your hands today, you'll praying for tomorrow That won't come easily, you know it won't come easily The sea seems like a stranger to me, no river sets me free, that don't feel good to me

Lighter Fuel Baby 03:18
lyrics

Lighter fuel baby Waiting time is over, It's really come to the end You know you're broke and your bottle's gone You found yourself without a friend You wasted time on dreaming, On that you can depend The thoughts you had the words you said, The actions you defend I can tell you now, you are going down You've gotta be joking if you think you can stick around Lighter fuel baby, You're never gonna find a friend You're burning out no blaze of glory It pains me to the end Lighter fuel baby to my will you are going to bend Lighter fuel baby You're never gonna find a friend You're burning out no blaze of glory To my will you've got to bend

Just a minute... 04:35
lyrics

Just a minute... Can you wait for just one minute, Before you head on out the door? I was trapping time forever, Now's not the time to settle the score The seconds, well, they tick on by Regardless of my fears and pride Won't you hold on for a moment longer? You see I've always been on your side You know I've always been by your side Think of all those second chances, I always give when we're apart It was only second glances, that were the ones that broke my heart If not forever, then a day It's not the time for us to pray Was it all the time you had? (Only time will tell) Time of your life either way

Seasons of Love 03:14
lyrics

Seasons of Love Raking through my memories as the leaves begin to fall The cold of winter's coming, there's no hope for spring at all The plans I made for summer come tumbling down to earth But see salvation rising through the light of just one birth Oh Lord, You find us sinful, lost, and proud But with your Word, You guide us We sing Your praise with voices loud The plan You made forever is only now revealed At this time of year, You come to us and all our wounds are healed Making safe our memories as new shoots begin to grow The cold of winter's passing the spring begins to show The plans we'll make for summer are plans with you in mind We see our true salvation in the love of all mankind Oh Lord, You find us sinful, lost, and proud But with Your Word, You guide us We sing Your praise with voices loud The plan You made for ever is forever and a day And in our hearts You come to us and wash our sins away And in our hearts You come to us and wash our sins away
