What's Left

I've got ahold
ahold of your hand
and you've got a boat I could float on dry land
and you've got a heart
as full as a hole
and you were something baby but you got old
and when the walls are falling all around you
and the bottles break
and make that sound
do you go running scared or do you take what's left
and try to make it whole
well I've gotten more from wanting
than I ever got from getting
and there was a time when I wanted everything till I got something
and watched it all burn
and when the walls are falling all around you
and the bottles break
and make that sound
do you go running scared or do you take what's left
and try to make it whole
you can't have it 'lessen I give it
and you can't fix me
cause you're broke
I've got ahold
ahold of your hand
and you've got a boat I could float on dry land
and you've got a heart
as full as a hole
and you were something baby but you got old
and when the walls are falling all around you
and the bottles break
and make that sound
do you go running scared or do you take what's left
and try to make it whole
try to make it whole
try to make it

Well it's not the way you planned it
so you don't understand it anymore
planted flowers in your garden
now you have forgotten what they are
don't forget to
don't forget to
don't forget to don't go
don't forget to
don't forget to
don't forget to don't go
run a flag up every mountain
just for those who doubted
who you were
and in canyons and in valleys
you've hidden and you've
buried all you own
don't forget to
don't forget to
don't forget to don't go
don't forget to
don't forget to
don't forget to don't go
don't forget to
don't forget to
don't forget to
don't forget to
don't forget to don't go
don't forget to
don't forget to
don't forget to don't go

Eight twenty-tree seventeen and twenty-four
an ambush a massacre
they called it Dummer's War
led by Harmon and Moulton
well they'll name streets for these men
oh here they come
yeah they're coming up the Kennebec
with seventeen boats and two hundred men
and a hundred dollar bounty on each of our heads
it's a brave man who fights
when he's got no chance to win
asleep in the night
the women and children
just meat to these rangers
out here seeking revenge
now the water it surrounds you
and the leaves fall down
come on listen to the north wind
come on listen to the sound
Eight twenty-tree seventeen and twenty-four
a pile of ash on the forest floor
they chased our dead down the river
to take proof of their kill
cause they'll pay them down in Boston
for the hair of our young
nothing left standing when daylight comes
the land lies sacred to the souls of our brave
survivors return to buy our dead
and wash in the river
which for days ran red
and all the years to follow will carry me to my rest
now the water it surrounds you
and the leaves fall down
come on listen to the north wind
come on listen to the sound
now the water it surrounds you
and the leaves fall down
come on listen to the north wind
come on listen to the sound
now the water it surrounds you
and the leaves fall down
come on listen to the north wind
come on listen to the sound
now the water it surrounds you
and the leaves fall down
come on listen to the north wind
come on listen to the sound

I Believe in Love Again
03:06
|
|||
|
They lay together
in fields of heather
swim in water slow and deep
drained from the mountainside
alive they spin into forests so green
her belongs to her
she belongs to him
but not like women not like men
like flowers to a garden
oh like leaves to a limb
takes one
to complete one garden or a limb
I believe in I believe in
I believe in love again
Eyes full of wonder
heart full of love
and she'll never have to wonder
she'll never question
if the one she loves
would stay forever this time
the way he looks at her
tells her that he needs her
and then he says the words
he'll never leave her
and says please love
just stay forever this time
takes one
to complete one garden or a limb
I believe in I believe in
I believe in love again
takes one
to complete one garden or a limb
I believe in I believe in
I believe in love again
I believe in I believe in
I believe in love again

For a Night
03:34
|

|
It's not the kind of walk you ever forget
especially when it's walking away
You're not the kind of girl
you'll never regret
and everybody says it
guess I found out the hard way
guess I learned it first hand
I was only yours for a night
I was only yours for a day
so lie to me
lie to me I know you will
so lie to to me
and say that you care
I waited out here for hours
just to talk to you in the sidewalk light
somebody stepped outside
locked the door and said goodnight
they said you were already long gone
down the interstate
I was only yours for a night
I was only yours for a day
so lie to me
lie to me I know you will
so lie to to me
and say that you care
now you're gone now you're gone away from me
now you're gone now you're gone away from me
now you're gone now you're gone away from me
I was only yours for a night
I was only yours for a day
I was only yours for a night
I was only yours for a day
I was only yours for a night
I was only yours for a day
I was only yours for a night
I was only yours for a day

Sweet Marie
03:19
|
|||
|
Today is tonight
in a violet sky
in a key the west was won
a weary maid waits outside the gate
I call her to come inside
show yourself to me up close
so that I can see your sin
it's the wondering
not the wandering that brings me to my knees
oh sweet Marie
oh sweet Marie
it's a cavalier heart
that brings her here
a die that's cast in time
if she follows me there
to the end of the world
then safely she'll arrive
it's still the wondering
not the wandering
that brings me to my knees
oh sweet Marie
oh sweet Marie

Swampland
04:01
|

|
I'm gonna make this mistake
I'm gonna make it with everything that's I've got
and I'm warning you now
I'm gonna push till it breaks
I'm gonna trade in this swampland
for some wide open space
cause it was easy to fall
wasn't easy to make my way back
to the place where we were
you left me crying out you left me crying out
in the night
you left me crying out you left me crying out
in the night
I'm gonna just be around
I'm gonna just keep my feet
so close to the fire
there's no telling me now
I'm gonna just wait it out
I'm gonna find out how many times
a heart breaks
cause I've got no reason to leave here
but can't find a reason to stay
you left me crying out you left me crying out
in the night
you left me crying out you left me crying out
in the night
you left me crying out you left me crying out
in the night
you left me crying out you left me crying out
in the night

Jesus Ain't Listenin'
03:16
|
|||
|
My parents taught the fear of God
spoil the child if you spare the rod
and every night I'd say a little prayer
say if I die before I wake
I pray the Lord my soul to take
for he has built a place for me on high
but Jesus ain't listenin' tonight
the devil came and took my soul
and left without a fight
Jesus ain't listenin' tonight
I swear I said my prayers
but Jesus ain't listenin' tonight
just a boy in my teens
much to learn or so it seemed
I was carrying on with a local girl
she said things are getting late
and I said yeah but wait
I've got a friend that I can call for this
but Jesus ain't listenin' tonight
the devil came and took my soul
and left without a fight
Jesus ain't listenin' tonight
I swear I said my prayers
but Jesus ain't listenin' tonight
well I've said prayers for lots of things
health and wealth
and the Sox to win
even asked forgiveness for some sins
I've prayed for love
I've prayed for peace
but just one look at the middle east
will tell you all you really need to know
Jesus ain't listenin' tonight
the devil came and took my soul
and left without a fight
Jesus ain't listenin' tonight
I swear I said my prayers
but Jesus ain't listenin' tonight
Jesus ain't listenin' tonight
the devil came and took my soul
and left without a fight
Jesus ain't listenin' tonight
I swear I said my prayers
but Jesus ain't listenin' tonight
Jesus ain't listenin' tonight
the devil came and took my soul
and left without a fight
Jesus ain't listenin' tonight
I swear I said my prayers
but Jesus ain't listenin' tonight
Jesus ain't listenin' tonight
the devil came and took my soul
and left without a fight
Jesus ain't listenin' tonight
I swear I said my prayers
but Jesus ain't listenin' tonight

Old Man
03:55
|
|||
|
My old man and I
we've kicked that dust up a time or two
just looking for some common ground
it's proven hard to find
I guess that's probably cause he's found his truth
and I've quit searching for mine
and these days
it's something I can hold inside my hand
and these days it's something I can see with my own eyes
we don't talk about it now
just lay our weapons down
we don't talk about it now
just lay our weapons down
now it's not fair to say
what's the point in sharing all these big bright stars
when they don't mean the same to me
as they do to you
but they're still lovely from both points of view
maybe we could talk about that
or even something a little more familiar to you
or even about the one who don't come around anymore
we don't talk about it now
just lay our weapons down
we don't talk about it now
just lay our weapons down
we don't talk about it now
just lay our weapons down
we don't talk about it now
just lay our weapons down
we don't talk about it
we don't talk much about anything
we don't talk about it
we don't talk about it
we don't talk about it now
just lay our weapons down
we don't talk about it now
just lay our weapons down

Over You
07:40
|

|
How many times will I get over you
without getting over you
how many times
How many times will I get over you
without getting over you
how many times
I was thinking how you'd lay with me
in the wintertime
and I was hoping you would sit with me
in the summertime
it was always you
you know no one else would do
honey yeah you always had my heart
now there's grey inside your eyes
where used to shine so bright
now there's doubt
each time you look at me
you used to know me
you knew me
How many times will I get over you
without getting over you
how many times
How many times will I get over you
without getting over you
how many times
