LONG-DISTANCE RUNNER

Over all the hills and then down in the valley
Running for the goal, never losing your sight
Keep your head up straight, your body’s feeling light
Maybe you will run down another blind alley
Feel it fade away, you are losing your cup
Hold your head up straight, you fall and then get up

And when you finally get there
What you’ve been reaching for
You never wanna be elsewhere
When the victory is yours

You are a long-distance runner
Throw your arms up far into the sky
And there is only one winner
Never stop, you’re running for the prize

On your marks, set, and I get into motion
Ready for the heat as I pick up the pace
Give it all you got and get into the race
Running each step with a given devotion
Keep your eyes forward and never look back
Give it all I got, I’m on the final track

What does it take to get there It’s all I’d ever want

To be a long-distance runner
And throw my arms up far into the sky
Cause there is only one winner
I’ll never stop, I’m running for the prize

Long-distance runner, a long-distance runner, a

To be a long-distance runner
Run until you reach the finish line
Cause there is only one winner
Never stop, you’re running for the prize

CAPTURED IN THE NIGHT

The face in the mirror looking back at you
You see fractions of your life, they are passing through
You stumble in the darkness but when you couldn’t see
Beyond dark horizon lines, the shadows flee

You were captured in the night
As you ran into the light

I had a trained night vision with adapted eyes
And so I trusted what i saw, nothing more to life
But then comes the dawning of the morning sun
And I can see a brand new day has just begun

I was captured in the night When I ran into the light

This is the right conclusion
to be alive again, be alive, be alive

SLEEP WALK

I keep my heart awaiting
Waiting for your chance to turn around
It feels captivating
See no one but I can hear a sound

I could’ve waited longer
Longer than day turning into night
Can you feel the hunger
Out of darkness, run into the light

And you’re falling in between
Somewhere you have never been
Where to go when you’ve been stuck in a sleep walk
I’ll be there when you’re awake
Ain’t no need to hesitate
Better take a leap of faith in your sleep walk

And you are goin blindly
That what lies ahead goes out of sight
I’m only asking kindly
Get out of darkness, run into the light

And when you’re walking in the deep of the night
No tellin’ where youre going wrong or you’re right
I’m gonna say it ’til the coming of dawn
Turn your light, turn your light on

I’m steady, awaiting, the earth is rotating
Get ready, for waking
You’re stuck in your sleep walk
I’m steady, awaiting, the earth is rotating
Get ready, for waking
A faith in your sleep walk

Open up your eyes
Open up your eyes in your sleep walk
Walk a mile, walk a mile, walk a mile, walk a mile

LEARN TO LOVE AGAIN

How many times have I tried to say sorry
In how many ways can a soul feel incomplete
Weather changing with every season
Tell me the reason
We were caught between the bitter and sweet

I remember we felt so alive with
A future unknown, all we had was here and now
Yesterdays gone when you are younger
It's making me wonder
Did we find our way, then lose it somehow

I wanna start all over
You're my everything
So come on, show me, get closer
Together we'll

Fight for our glory from now until the end
Every heart tells a story, we will learn to love again
Always, forever, like we were supposed to be

Give me the power to let every action
Speak about love more than words could ever say
Though it feels impossible sometimes
I need to know I'm
Giving in to let our love lead the way

So let us start all over
You're my everything
So come on, show me, get closer
Together we'll

From now until the end

LATE NIGHT HOLLYWOOD

Ridin' in a late night Hollywood
Ridin' in a late night Hollywood
I'm trusting that we'll always put up a fight

I wanna know, is this real
Or am I living a fantasy
Left my heart upon my sleeve
I'll be chasing a fire
Burning inside my soul

Ridin' in a late night Hollywood
You and me, we're rollin' into the night
Ridin' in a late night Hollywood
I'm trusting that we'll always put up a fight

All I got is all I need
A six-string and a worn-out prayer
So come on now, grab a seat
Better days are coming, holdin it straight ahead

I'll be chasing a fire
Burning inside my soul

LEANNA

Babe, sometimes I may feel like I stumble and fall
The road may be straight but I'm constantly hitting a wall
And out of the shadows, wherever the wind may blow
I will run into your arms, yeah, I'm coming home

Leanna
I wanna cherish every moment
That I have you by my side
Leanna
How I love you from here and
To the moon up in the sky
All of the laughter, all the tears
I wouldn't trade for a thousand years
Leanna
Love is always on our side

Better or worse, for the lows, my babe, for highs
We've had it all, our son got his mother's eyes
Come every hour and season, come what might
And babe, you look so pretty tonight

Look at the shimmering sky
As far as the eyes cannot see
Shining down on you and me
And babe, yeah, we'll be alright
Even the stars, stars will sing out
Sing out your name in the night

STRAIGHT TO VIDEO

Now listen closely, what is that noise
It's coming from afar
A mere joker that puts on a show
He thinks he's a star

That day circus was coming to town
Or so the story goes
The spotlight looking out for a clown
I guess noone knows
And so it started with a fairytale
That turned into a nightmare
Call it the truth, will it prevail
You'd better beware

It's like worse than the baddest of movies
Straight to video, go straight to video
You say the words but you can never prove 'em
Straight to video, go straight to video

It's like worse than the baddest of movies
Straight to video, go straight to video
A bad actor, ain't nothing more to it
Straight to video, go straight to video

All the world's looking through a blindfold
Not seeing anything
Wanna believe all that glitters is gold
Now watch that swing
We better stop play along with your games
They'll turn into a nightmare
You're gonna go, go down in flames
You'd better beware

It's like worse than the baddest of movies
Straight to video, go straight to video
Is there a way, I just wanna get thru this
Straight to video, go straight to video

FLY WITH EAGLES

Give me something to believe in
They won't bring me down again
Give me air, I want to breathe in
And let my heart begin to mend

Oh, spread your wings into the sky
And you're reaching higher
All you jaded, all you dreamers
See where eagles fly with eagles

Touch the sky, feel elevated
And the battle's finally won
Watch me now, I'm liberated
Yeah, I can fly, all schackles gone, gone, gone

Oh, spread your wings into the sky
And you're reaching higher
All you jaded, all you dreamers
See where eagles fly with eagles

Oh, spread your wings into the sky
And you're flying higher
All you doubters and believers
See where eagles fly with eagles

WHERE DID LOVE GO

Where did love go after all
Tell me, I've really wanted to know
I try to hold on 'til the nightfall
Babe, where did love go

My heart is feeling heavy
And moments passed me by
Oh, wish I could be weightless
With my arms in the sky
Was the pain that I tasted
There to make me feel alive

Where did love go after all
Tell me, I've really wanted to know
I try to hold on 'til the nightfall
Babe, where did love go

My heart is feeling weary
Each memory leaves a mark
Babe, I'm only human
Slowly losing the spark
Nothing left to be proven
But a tired and weary heart

END GAME

Tension is rising
And you can feel it in the air
You are not going anywhere
Try to keep your cool
Where you go from here, now tell me
Life is but a prayer

Hearts in a flame
You moved too fast to read the sign
What's your end game
Better go ahead or get off the mainline

Gimme one more, one for the road
What's your end game, I gotta know

Get into position
You ain't got nothing left to prove
I need to know now, what's your move
Try to keep your calm
Heavy lies the crown, he's standing right in front of you

Hearts in a flame
You moved too fast to read the sign
What's your end game
Better go ahead or get off the mainline

Gimme one more, one for the road
What's your end game, I gotta know
Won't you tell me, you go from here
Will you conquer or disappear

HIT THE GROUND

Headin’ straight into the night
like the morning won’t come, oh won’t come
You never gave in to a fight
’til the day you were done, oh you’re done

In the moment when you hit the ground
what went up was falling down
and the hardest part is knowing where to go
In the moment when you feel it’s gone
don’t forget to carry on
Even though you feel
you’ve wasted all your hope

And so the king lost his crown
it all happened so fast, oh so fast
Nowhere left to go but down
life caught up with you at last, oh at last

And when you hear the night is callin
close your eyes and you will know when
letting go is the best thing you can do

CHUTES AND LADDERS

When the darkness falls and you can see the stars
you may hold my hand, I’ll never be afar
I will try to protect you
from the heartaches and the pain
but you fall and rise and then you fall again

There will be chutes and ladders
but there is only us tonight
We got a call that matters
and don’t you ever give up the fight

So your eyes can’t tell me what tomorrow brings
but together here with you means everything
Yeah, I know we won’t stay here
forever in this spot
But I know you’ll stay forever in my heart

Any way the wind be blowing blessed be the road you’re going
Wherever the wind may take you every little step will make you

STAY

I knew I had to let you go
You were a young and restless soul
You decided you were breaking free
I knew when there was nothing left for me
Where would you go from here

So stay with me Stay with me

You got a dream, little runaway
Thru all the fire and all the rain
You got a dream, little runaway
I keep on waiting until the day

You were a story to be told
but then the nights were getting cold
All your dreams would take you anywhere
now you hold on to a wing and prayer
Where will you go from here

With every moment passing by, you still remember me
thru every storm, I stood there by your side
Until you turn around, back to where you’re coming from
I will leave a light on, let it be your guide

LOVE RIOT

Take it to the streets
every woman, every man
You gotta get up on your feet better go while you can
Aimin’ for the heart
I’m a fighter and a rebel
I’mma ready for the start revolution is here

When the night falls
and the evil arise
we will better stand our ground
Fighting all the clouds and the wicked lies
We are starting a, starting a (raising a)

Love, love riot Love, love riot

Some people may say
fight fire with fire
But the morning light of day will defeat any night
They may win a battle
maybe overcome a ground
But the snake will end his rattle you won’t hear any sound

CLOSER

Take my body, mind, my spirit
If I ever lose the path that I’m walking
Draw me into your arms

And whenever I may fall
I know I don’t have to fear it
You are walking right beside me, I feel it
Oh, yes, I know that

Everywhere I go, you’re with me all along the way
From here on now I will say
All I have and all I am, I give to you my heart
back where it belonged from the very start

Closer, I just wanna be so much closer, feel you’re drawing me ever
Closer, I just wanna be so much closer, closer

All the words I cannot speak can you see them in my eyes still
I am asking for the road I may travel that brings me into your arms

There’s a fire deep inside
and it won’t be satisfied ’til
oh, this stranger is coming home, I can feel it
Oh, yes, I know that

CAUGHT UP IN A DREAM

A vision in the night
flyin’ over me by the speed of light
There’s still another chance take a deep breath
Save the last dance

With my back against the wall all I really need is a miracle from you

Music playin’ on the radio Just how many miles left to go

Getting caught up in a dream Hard to remember, easier to forget
But we’re holdin’ on to love something we have never seen
And if I’mma dreaming
don’t wake me up just yet

Daylight, disappear speak another word into my ear
A vision before my eyes Greater than the world
the water and the skies

AWAKE

Final lifeline
no longer will we ever be patient
Sense of high time
Cause this could be the moment we’ve waited for

And we’re finally awake
let the chains be broken
Yeah, tonight we’re finding who we are with our eyes wide open

Slow down, listen
our hearts are beating stronger and stronger Clearer vision
Cause this will be the moment we’ve waited for

And we’re finally awake
let the chains be broken
Yeah, tonight we’re finding who we are with our eyes wide open

And we’re finally awake we are moving mountains

So tonight we’re finding who we are with our hearts wide open

Put a seal over our hearts
Like a reflection, look in a mirror
No more deception, we can see clearer now

Yeah, we’re finally awake
let the new life begin

FIRE BURNIN’

We got the power
get ready for the curtain call
In the midnight hour wake up, burnin’ the oil

Like stepping into a video game
In a moment of truth
better check your meter
When all we’re doing is fanning the flame
we are trimming and we’re burning getting ready to keep the

Fire burnin’ heart is in a motion Fire burnin’ keeping fire burnin’
Fire burnin’ showing your devotion Fire burnin’ keeping fire burnin’

We got the matches
one strike and you’re feeling the spark
Trophies and badges
won’t save you in the dark

Cause when the fire is coming along
and the heat in the night’s giving satisfaction
All said and done, yeah, we gotta be strong

OVERJOYED

You’ve been waiting for this moment all your life
You’ve been searching for a love that is divine
You’ve been asking, is this all?

Now your heart is overjoyed with laughter
The search is over and it really matters
You are dancing, give me more!

There’s a feeling going on inside your heart
Movin’ on to something else, a brand new start
You can feel it deep inside, your heart is overjoyed
With this feeling going on inside your heart
Every new day is a gift, a brand new start
You can feel the glow inside, your heart is overjoyed

You’ve been hoping for this moment all the time
You’ve been feeling that your life is in decline
You’ve been asking, is this all?

Now your heart is overjoyed with laughter
A new beginning and it really matters
You are dancing, give me more!

WORDS FOR MENDING HEARTS

You know I didn’t mean what I just said
All the little words inside my head they keep tearing me
You know I never lost my faith in you
Though I try to hide you see me through and I wonder why

Yeah, the love that we've been trying to build
piece by piece so long, I will not let it break

Cause I know we will never be apart, woah
We could go on and on ’til the dawn and never find a love like this
Babe, can you tell me where to start, woah
We got to find the words for mending hearts
cause I know we will never be apart

Believe me when I tell you how I feel
Cause babe, what we got, I know it's real and I wonder why

MALIBU PIER

So long, goodbye
we’re gonna head out to the Malibu Pier
Hands to the sky
so hold on tighter, we are shifting the gear

And not a minute too soon, we’re on our way
The road ahead and we are free at last
we’re cruising down the highway and we’re leaving the past behind

Look at all the mountains we have moved
you and me together
Woah, love will bring us from here and to the moon
Now and ’til forever, come on

Hello coastline
yeah, we are driving down the 101
 I’m yours and you’re mine
wind in my hair and life is second to none

Say goodbye to all the yesterdays
we’re cruisin down the highway and we finally found our way

Look at all the mountains we have moved
 you and me together
Woah, love will bring us from here and to the moon
