Time, Time, is on our side
Change the world if we’re just willing to try
Time, Time, for you and me
Get it together, time runs out eventually
Every minute every hour every day
time, time keeps ticking away
If time turned back, and I had another chance
Would I see different for a change
Hey Mister, could you spare some time
My 9 to 5 has gone and stolen all of mine
Hey Sister, together we’re the key
Just take the time to live the life we’re meant to be
Time, Time, is on our side
Change the world if we’re just willing to try
Time, Time, for you and me
Get it together, time runs out eventually
This second hand it keeps ticking away
It’s the final countdown, Lord it’s getting too late
Can’t turn the clock back to get another chance
We’ve got to do things different for a change
Hey Brother, could you spare an hour
I’d earn some more, but I just don’t have the power
Hey Lover, we can break these chains
Can’t waste the time while there’s still a world to save
Time, Time, is on our side
Change the world if we’re just willing to try
Time, Time, for you and me
Get it together, time runs out eventually
All the worry, and the heartbreak
What’s happening In the world today
How much more, can we take
Cause it all comes back around again
Time, Time, is on our side
Change the world if we’re just willing to try
Time, Time, for you and me
Get it together, time runs out eventually

Have you seen the light shining in her eyes
So bright, so beautiful, like a sunrise
Have you felt the warm glow of her smile
Like a fire burning in the cold moonlight
Yeah, she keeps me warm
Through the long black night ’til the break of dawn
Try to leave i always hold on
‘Cause my world gets colder when you’re gone
Darling take my hand, let me be your guide
Don’t cry, don’t be afraid when i’m by your side
Darling now don’t you fear, i may not know the way
But i swear i’ll stand by you ’til my dying day
Yeah, i’ll keep you warm
Through the long black night ’til the break of dawn
Try to leave i’ll always hold on
Cause my world gets colder when you’re gone
So i keep that fire burning all night long
Keep that fire burning all night long
Keep that fire burning all night long
And it keeps us warm
Keeps us warm
Yes it keeps us warm
So we, burn, burn, burn
Until the break of dawn
Keep the fire burning
Keep it burning bright
Through the morning ’til the end of the night
And it keeps us warm
Yes it keeps us warm
Keeps us warm
So we, burn, burn, burn
Yeah i keep that fire burning all night long
Keep that fire burning all night long
Keep that fire burning all night long
And we burn, burn, burn
So i keep that fire burning all night long
Keep that fire burning all night long
Keep that fire burning all night long
And it keeps us warm
Yes it keeps us warm
Yes it keeps us warm
So we, burn, burn, burn
Until the break of dawn

Dream

Staring out into nothing
Hoping for a brand new day
I dream of change but it ain’t coming
So I’m dreaming my life away
Chased by fate and I keep running
And Lord knows I’m afraid
Fight the good fight and I sure ain’t winning
So I’m dreaming my life away
yes I know, yes I know,
That a change is gonna come my way
Yes I know, yes I know
That a change is gonna come my way
So I dream, dream, dream
Oh I dream, dream, dream
Oh I’m dreaming my life away
I know the words but I just ain’t singing
Can’t think of what to say
Robbed of speech, my head is spinning
So I’m dreaming my life away.
And I know, yes I know,
That a change is gonna come my way
Yes I know, yes I know
That a change is gonna come my way
Yes I know, that a change is gonna come
It’s gonna come my way, yes it will
So I dream, dream, dream
Yes I Dream, dream, dream
Oh I’m dreaming my life away

Lord Tell Me When
04:06
|

|
A storm is coming
Can’t you feel it raging on and on
Keep on running
But you just can’t get away from what you’ve done
Can’t feed your soul on the black gold
That you sold it for
Will the wells that you drill
Quench your thirst or will
The poison turn to ash in your mouth
Lord tell me when
Lord tell me when
When will we learn
When will we learn
That money can’t buy, money can’t buy back
Money can’t buy back
The world that we’ve burned
The world that we’ve burned
A storm is coming
And pretty soon we’ll all be drowning in the flood
Unless we start realizing
The storm ain’t raging in the clouds above
Won’t raise your hand to help no man
But you’ll raise a gun
And if you could wash all the guilt from your hands
Pretty soon we’d be drowning in blood
Lord tell me when
Lord tell me when
When will we learn
When will we learn
That money can’t buy, money can’t buy back
Money can’t buy back
The world that we’ve burned
The world that we’ve burned
Mr business man, you’re standing at the storm front
Sailing a ship that you don’t know how to steer
Powered by profit, but you don’t heed the only
Prophet that you need to hear
Mr tax man, you’re taking all my money
Can’t afford to pay my bills
And while you’re at it, why don’t you remind everybody
To take the medication that makes them ill
Tell me when
Lord tell me when
When will we learn
When will we learn
That money can’t buy, money can’t buy back
Money can’t buy back
The world that we’ve burned
The world that we’ve burned
This world’s gonna burn
When will we learn
That you’ll burn, burn, burn, burn
That money can’t buy, money can’t buy back
Money can’t buy back
This world’s gonna burn
This world’s gonna burn
But we’ve got a change on the way

Redemption City

Well, i’ve got one foot on the platform
Got the other on the train
Got me a one way ticket to redemption
I ain’t ever going back again
Just like a traveling man
You know i carry a heavy load
Got me a suitcase full of burden
And a lead weight on my soul
And i said break those chains
Cast aside your pity
Got a one way ticket
To redemption
I’ve got a one way ticket
To redemption 1 2 3 4
Well, there’s a lamp on every corner
And the streets are paved with gold
Said, there’s a lamp on every corner
And the streets are paved with gold
I’m gonna rest my weary head
And pacify my soul
And i said break those chains
Cast aside your pity
Got a one way ticket
To redemption
I’ve got a one way ticket
To redemption city

One Drink
03:24
|

|
Head is pounding
Mouth is dry
Woke up this morning
Wailing why, oh why
Did I have that extra drink
Why did I have two more
And hell, three drinks after that
I wasn’t keeping score
Pour me
1 drink for my sorrows
1 drink for my sins
1 drink to let the devil out
1 more drink to keep him in
1 drink for my sorrows
1 drink for my sins
1 drink to let the devil out
1 more drink to keep him in
I said I wouldn’t do it
Swore never again
But never’s such an ugly word
When the whiskey’s free my friend
Hair of the dog that bit you
They say that’s the only cure
But that mean old dog bit me good and hard
So I better drink some more
Pour me
1 drink for my sorrows
1 drink for my sins
1 drink to let the devil out
1 more drink to keep him in
1 drink for my sorrows
1 drink for my sins
1 drink to let the devil out
1 more drink to keep him in
One more drink and then I’ll quit
I’m growing sick and tired of it
That’s what I say when I’m at home
But at the bar i don’t give a …
Moan and groan, fuss and fight
When I’m not drinking I don’t feel quite right
Just two more steps along the street
Mr Barman, won’t you make my night
Pour me
1 drink for my sorrows
1 drink for my sins
1 drink to let the devil out
1 more drink to keep him in
1 drink for my sorrows
1 drink for my sins
1 drink to let the devil out
1 more drink to keep him in
1 drink for my sorrows
1 drink for my sins
1 drink to let the devil out
1 more drink to keep him in
1 drink for my sorrows
1 drink for my sins
1 drink to let the devil out
1 more drink to keep him in
That’s what I need

I Gave It All Away
06:04
|

|
I was lost inside
Deaf, dumb and blind
When I gave it all away
I was out of line
And so full of pride
When I gave it all away
I was so confused
Wrecked from abuse
When I gave it all away
I could not refuse
I had nothing left to lose
So I gave it all away
I felt the pressure everyday
I tried to take on all the blame
Now I never need to explain
I just call out on your name
I tried to take on all the blame
I felt the pressure everyday
Now I never need to explain
I just call out on your name
And the clouds did part
And love filled my heart
When I gave it all away
And the sun did shine
When I made up my mind
And gave it all away
Yes I gave it all away
Yes I gave it all away
