My Mistake

I'm in a dream I'm flying over hills,
I see it shining in the hay.
There's something golden in my hands,
And then I go and let it slip away.

With eyes that are broken, my feelings are spoken.
It's time for the waters to break.
I know where I should be, and I'm gonna make it there.
I won't let you be my mistake.

The days go by like chapters from a book,
I'm skipping pages to the end.
There's a story that I'll never know,
The one about the man who makes amends.

With eyes that are open, my feelings are spoken.
It's time for the waters to break.
I know where I should be, and I'm gonna make it there.
I won't let you be my mistake.

The moment's uncovered, I must seize the day.
This goal that I hold high - won't let it be lost for all time.

With eyes that are open, my feelings are spoken.
It's time for the waters to break.
I know where I should be, and I'm gonna make it there.
I won't let you be my mistake.

With eyes that are broken, my feelings are spoken.
It's time for the waters to break.
I know where I should be, and I'm gonna make it there.
I won't let you be my mistake.

My mistake baby...

Lie, No. 1

You said you weren't a good liar. That was Lie #1.
You said your partying days were over, but the party's just begun.

You said it was a Friday thing, a shot or two of booze.
And in the middle of Tuesday, you're drunk and can't find your shoes.
You let all your lovers go, you swore to God it was true,
The phone is ringing off the hook, with dudes looking for you.

You whisper things I've never heard.
But the thing is baby, I believed every word.

You said you weren't a good liar. That was Lie #1.
You said your partying days were over, but the party's just begun.
Lie #1, Lie #1 - oh help me now.

[Lead Break]

It seems you've been hangin' out, in some very sketchy places.
It seems you and the cops babe, on a first name basis.

You whisper things I've never ever heard.
But the thing is baby, I believed every word.

You said you weren't a good liar. That was Lie #1.
You said your partying days were over, but the party's just begun.

Now a thousand lies later, look at the damage you've done,
'Cuz I believed you honey - I believed Lie #1.
Lie #1, Lie #1, Lie #1...

No Slack

Somebody told me that you had changed
Since the day my life has become estranged
Well that's ok, you just put on that face
But in your heart I know of another place

So here we are, now we're just worlds apart
But were we any closer at the start?
Something so alone, you want somebod,
But you're still on your own

(Oh baby) Now that the feeling's gone
I believe that I've done no wrong
'Cuz I've tried hard to get you back baby
But you just wouldn't cut me no slack

Now that it's gone, now that we've walked away
Now that we've both started a brand new day
I'm lookin' back - I'm lookin' at your face
I'm lookin' and all I see is empty space

So here we are, now we're just worlds apart
But were we any closer at the start?
Something so alone, you want somebody,
But you're still on your own

Oh baby, now that the feeling's gone
I believe that I've done no wrong
'Cuz I've tried hard to get you back baby
But you just wouldn't cut me no slack

But I gotsta' have ya
Now that I know the cost baby
Something's gonna change my mind
But I don't have the luxury of time no more
Oh, no more time baby...

[Short Lead Break]

Now that the feeling's gone
I believe that I've done no wrong
'Cuz I've tried hard to get you back baby
But you just wouldn't cut me no slack

Now that the feeling's gone
I believe that I've done no wrong
'Cuz I've tried hard to get you back baby
But you just wouldn't cut me no slack

Oh no...
Just wouldn't cut me no slack now...
Now that the feeling's gone...
Oh no more time baby...
Yeah now that the feeling's gone...

Unbroken

If I lived and breathed before you loved me
I don't recall
If I walked around at all I was in bits and pieces
Of a jagged heart
You kissed me and every piece back into place
Every pain got erased
Held me up to the sunlight
Now it feels like

No one ever left me out in the rain
Cold words that remained unspoken
I never got lost, spent years in the dark
'Cuz you're here now my heart's unbroken
When I see you smile, feel my soul again - I'm unbroken

If I doubted the power of love baby,
Now I understand
I thank God for everyday that you touch me like heaven
Inside your warm hands
In this world sometimes the only thing that's real
Is the way you make me feel
Baby the change is day to night - I swear it's like

No one ever left me out in the rain
Cold words that remained unspoken
I never got lost, spent years in the dark
'Cuz you're here, now my heart's unbroken
When I see you smile, feel my soul again - I'm unbroken

I still see the night, fell into your eyes
And when we made love it felt like the first time

No one ever left me out in the rain...

No one ever left me out in the rain
Cold words that remained unspoken
I never got lost, spent years in the dark
'Cuz you're here, now my heart's unbroken
When I see you smile, feel my soul again - I'm unbroken.

So, It's Like That

I was under the impression that everything was cool,
I get the feeling now I'm played for a fool.
So it's like that, so it's like that.
How easy it is - you break my heart again.

There's a train that's runnin' and I'm tied to the tracks,
The things you say it's too late to take them back.
So it's like that, so it's like that.
How easy it is - you break my heart again.
Oh yeah...

[Lead Break]

You took my best possession to the corner to hock it,
I keep on feelin' your hands are in my pocket.
So it's like that, so it's like that.
How easy it is - you break my heart again.
So it's like that, so it's like that.
How easy it is - you break my heart again.
Oh yeah...

Waiting For Me

Maybe I was wishin', for a little bit more
Even though I didn't want to be the one to kick down that door
Baby I was prayin', a prayin' to believe
There was something for - something more - out there waiting for me

'Cuz maybe I'm crazy, for chasing that dream
It hasn't been easy, like some make it seem
I can't help but feeling, my best is yet to be
Cuz somewhere there's something better waiting for me

Should I just be happy, with nowhere to go?
And no mystery calling me to the great unknown?
Should I keep pretending, pretending to see?
To live a lie - live and die - no that just ain't me

'Cuz maybe I'm crazy, for chasing that dream
It hasn't been easy, like some make it seem
I can't help but feeling, the best is yet to be
Cuz somewhere there's something better waiting for me

You can call me greedy - come along or leave me
There's somewhere that I gotta go yeah
But I don't know the reason, but that's what keeps me breathin'
It's the only thing I've ever known -- yeah!

[Lead Break]

Maybe I'm crazy, for chasing that dream
It hasn't been easy, like some make it seem
I can't help but feeling, my best is yet to be
Cuz somewhere there's something better waiting for me

No it hasn't been easy, like some make it seem...
Yeah I'm crazy for chasin' that dream...
No that just ain't me...
Like some make it seem...

But somewhere there's something better waiting for me

Never Say Goodbye

And now I'm older now than I used to be
And now I paid my dues and I spent my time
And there's nothing that I haven't seen
And oh, I still think about you every night

The rain's coming down
I'm standing in the street
I thought I knew it all
Baby I don't know a thing

[Chorus:]
I tried to put you in your place
I told you many lies
And I never meant to hurt you baby, yeah
I said a lot of things
But I'll never say goodbye

And when a pretty girl smiles at me
And I can't think of anything to say
Makes me think about you and me
Makes me think of how everything has changed

The rain's coming down
A-comin' down on me
I thought I knew it all
Baby I don't know a thing

[Chorus]

Oh, never say goodbye, ah yeah
Yeah I never say goodbye

[Chorus]

Never say goodbye, oh no
Never say goodbye, yeah

Mountain Time

You drive west on 80 and it won't take too long
'Til the road starts climbing up to mountain time
There's a girl I know there, she lives free and easy
And she shows me wonders and she takes my mind

And she's wild as eagles
She's as sweet as honeysuckle
Her life's flowing like a mountain stream
And she takes me somewhere
And it's good to be there
And she pulls me into her bright golden wing

Now I hate the city and I love the country
And I love that feeling on that mountain high
And that girl is waiting, but she won't wait too long
So I drive all night to that clear blue sky

And she's wild as eagles
She's as sweet as honeysuckle
Her life's flowing like a mountain stream
And she takes me somewhere
And it's good to be there
And she pulls me into her bright golden wing

I can feel it in the wind blow
I can feel love flow
And I'll be there when the morning comes, yeah

And she's wild as eagles
She's as sweet as honeysuckle
Her life's flowing like a mountain stream
And she takes me somewhere
And it's good to be there
And she pulls me into her bright golden wing

Bright golden wing

And she's wild as eagles
She's as sweet as honeysuckle
Her life's flowing like a mountain stream
And she takes me somewhere
And it's good to be there
And she pulls me into her bright golden wing

Bright golden wing

Pain And Sorrow

Sparkle as the tears come
They glitter as they fall
You sacrifice your love
For the wonder of it all
But I will, and you won't
And I deal, and you don't, yeah

[Chorus:]
Livin' on pain and sorrow
Until you find another way
Livin' on pain and sorrow
Until I find another way

Where's your silver lining?
Where's your long lost friend?
The emptiness is shining
From somewhere deep within
But I will, and you won't
And I deal, and you don't yeah

[Chorus 2x]

No I...go on
It's your life baby
'Til you find another way
Go on...oh yeah

Pain and sorrow
Pain and sorrow
Pain and sorrow
Find another way

Takin' The Hit

Yes I'm takin' the hit, payin' the price;
Sometimes in love the ending ain't nice.
Just layin' me down, (need help here),
I'm crying all night, yes I'm takin' the hit.

Hey it's my problem, I'm not blaming you;
And I wasn't love, you're just passing through.
And I won't complain, your kiss wasn't calm,
Something has moved you, you're moving on.

I'm feelin' so bad just to think about you.
You're not coming back there's nothin' I can do.

'Cuz I'm takin' the hit, payin' the price;
Sometimes in love the ending ain't nice.
Just layin' me down, (need help here),
I'm crying all night, yes I'm takin' the hit.

[Lead Break]

I lie to myself, someday I won't care,
Each day I wake up and you're still there.
I'm hiding the truth, from people I see,
Know something's wrong and it's killin' me.

I'm feeling so bad just to think about you,
You're not coming back there's nothin' I can do.

Yes I'm takin' the hit, payin' the price;
Sometimes in love the ending ain't nice.
Just layin' me down, (need help here),
I'm crying all night, yes I'm takin' the hit.

Yes I'm takin' the hit, payin' the price,
Sometimes in love the ending ain't nice.
Just layin' me down, (need help here),
I'm crying all night, yes I'm takin' the hit

Under The Radar

You were sinking lower,
Just to ride a little high.
You were in the ground to taste a bluer sweeter sky.

Something's got to give, yeah - nothing lasts this long.

It's hard to hear you say,
Your breaking up, your signal's fading.
Now you're caught under the radar.

Peace of mind, a space in time,
A part of you you'll never find.
Now you're caught under the radar.

Breathe a little faster,
This could be your time.
You can't be honest with yourself while living out that same old lie.

I can't reach for something you won't let me see.

It's hard to hear you say,
Your breaking up, your signal's fading.
Now you're caught under the radar.

Peace of mind, a space in time,
A part of you you'll never find.
Now you're caught under the radar.

[Lead Break]

It's hard to hear you say,
Your breaking up, your signal's fading.
Now you're caught under the radar.

Peace of mind, a space in time,
A part of you you'll never find.
Now you're caught under the radar.

Oh yeah...

Stick In Love

I should be medicated - I'm debilitated,
There's nothing I can do.
Put me where they find 'em - deep in some asylum,
Let me forget about you.

I'm absolutely, positively, sick in love with you.

Here's the situation - I need an operation,
Bring me a doctor and a nurse.
Give me anesthetic - isn't this pathetic?
They are tellin' me it could be worse.

I'm absolutely, positively, sick in love with you.
I'm absolutely, positively, sick in love with you.
Sick in love...

All my friends said to leave her,
It's too late, I got the fever.
My brother said, “Forget her now�br> But they never met her.
And after all this time...
This ain't getting' better.

Now I can't hack it - I need a straitjacket,
I love you and I can't stop.
I need a pill now,
I'm truly truly ill now, any second I will drop.

I'm absolutely, positively, sick in love with you.
I'm absolutely, positively, sick in love with you.
I'm sick in love...
I'm absolutely, positively, sick in love with you.
Oh I'm sick in love baby, oh no...
Oh I can't stop baby...

The Hard Way

I've known this day was gonna come,
Will I be the one, will I be around?
I can feel something heavy on your mind,
Coming through again, coming down again.

I don't know what I can do.
Got all those roads in front of ya, Which one will you choose?

Break down, break through - break anything you want.
Say that's not you - holdin' the world up.
Every time you give, everything you got, you just wanna stop.
Think you're going the wrong way.
You were never lost, didn't know the cost,
Then you still get down - do it the hard way.

Love is so easy to refuse,
Easier to quit, easiest to lose.
You never let it make any sense,
Always hiding behind, all those words never said.

I've stood here as long as I can stand.
Now the cards are in your hands,
My heart is in your hands...

Break down, break through - break anything you want.
Say that's not you - holdin' the world up.
Every time you give, everything you got, you just wanna stop.
Think you're going the wrong way.
You were never lost, didn't know the cost,
Then you still get down - do it the hard way.

Goin' the hard way - oh yeah...

[Short Lead Break]

Break down, break through - break anything you want.
Say that's not you - holdin' the world up.
Every time you give, everything you got, you just wanna stop.
Think you're going the wrong way.
You were never lost, didn't know the cost,
Then you still get down - do it the hard way.

Do it the hard way...
Do it the hard way...
Do it the hard way...
Oh yeah...

Money makes that mother love...
Money makes that mother love...
Money makes that mother love...

'Cos that ain't me, that ain't me
