Easy Days
03:46

Once I was wandering
Right outside your door
Sweet voice was callin'
But I don't hear it no more
Once we were dancing
All alone in the dark
In came the sunrise
Empty were my arms
Where did those easy days go?
Ones I used to know, oh-oh
Way back on Easy Way Road
When I held you close
Once I was dreaming
Gentle waves on the sea
But now they're screaming
Washing over me
Once we were painting
On a canvas so fine
Bright were our colors
Bold were our lines
Where did those easy days go?
Ones I used to know, oh-oh
Way back on Easy Way Road
When I held you close
Back on Easy Way
Back on Easy Way
Back on Easy Way Road

If You Ever

If you ever have lacked an answer
If you've ever sought the truth
If you've been this close
To giving up
Oh-oh
Then this one's for you
If you ever have been in battle
If you've ever known defeat
If the waves have crashed
Like an avalanche
Oh-oh
Then this one's for you
Together we'll face the day
'Til all the storms blow 'way
Pass tonight, hope they may
But here I am to stay
If you ever have cried your eyes out
If you've ever lost your way
If you're needing this
Like an amethyst
Oh-oh
Then this one's for you
If you ever have dropped your rhythm
If your tune has ever lagged
If you've ever tried
Getting back in time
Oh-oh
Then this one's for you
Together we'll face the day
'Til all the storms blow 'way
Pass tonight, hope they may
But here I am to stay
If you ever have jumped that hurdle
If courage is guiding you
If you step ahead
Through the fear and dread
Oh-oh
Then this one's for you
This one's for you. Yeah - yeah
Then this one's for you

Pull Me to My Feet
04:38
|
|||
|
I close my eyes
Become the downpour
Destroy the land
Propose defeat
Reach out your hand
And share my sorrow
Be my strength
And pull me to my feet
It's in my head
A sweet illusion
It's just a lie I'm telling myself
But here you are
You're my foundation
You're my truth
You pull me to my feet
Pull me to my feet
Lead me onward
See my dreams
Guide me home
Share my world
Be my rainbow
Be the one I know I know
I tip my hat
And face the sunset
Travel westward
Roaring free
Come with me
We may get lonesome
Against the wind
You pull me to my feet
Pull me to my feet
Lead me onward
See my dreams
Guide me home
Share my world
Be my rainbow
Be the one I know I know
Pull me to my feet
Lead me onward
See my dreams
Guide me home
Share my world
Be my rainbow
Be the one I know I know

Enough of Me
04:39
|
|||
|
You don’t have to say a word
Just lend an ear so I’ll be heard
And hold my hand as teardrops fall
Dropping heavy like a cannonball
I’m afraid to face today
For the storm I’m in might wash away
All that I've gathered and what's to come
And leave me choosing "none of the above"
But there’s enough of me
There’s enough of you
I know that we'll make it
You will carry me; I will carry you
And that's how
We will make it
Make it through
Promise me you'll share this road
There's no way I'll make it on my own
When I’m falling help me stand
Be for me, dear, a steady hand
I’ll remember as I light this flame
The way she used to sing my name
In times of trouble she'd come to me
Her touch like feathers in my memory
Now there’s enough of me
There’s enough of you
I know that we'll make it
You will carry me; I will carry you
That's how we will make it
Make it through
There’s enough of me
There’s enough of you
I know that we'll make it
You will carry me; I will carry you
That's how we will make it
Make it through

The Faraway Waltz
05:26
|
|||
|
I closed my eyes in time to see
The moment when I was born
With tears of joy for her baby boy
She sang me this faraway waltz
When I was younger I’d bask in her voice
Like perfume, infusing the air
Although years have passed I am still taken back
By the echo of the faraway waltz
Stay a while, darling child
Let's go down to the sea
Don't be afraid of the coming of day
For you’re carrying all you need
The last time that I walked by the waves
I gave her a piece of my heart
She gave me the same when she rose up and sang
With nostalgia the faraway waltz
Stay a while, darling child
Let's go down to the sea
Don't be afraid of the coming of day
For you’re carrying all you need
