Dreamer

I’ve been going through it, damn near lost all my faith
I’ve been trying hard to get there I just can’t recall the way
I’ve been going crazy, think I might be too far gone
I ain’t been worth much for saving now for more than way too long
So I’ll just close my eyes…
If I can dream forever then I never wanna die
I was born to be a dreamer in this hard up kind of life
If I can dream forever go ahead and blind my eyes
‘Cause these dreams are all I have and all these dreams I have are mine
Oh my, all these dream I have are mine
I’ve been going through it, lost far more than I have found
Never do know what I’m doing, running circles through the ground
I’ve been going crazy, Oh, my heart cannot be still
Try to breathe a little slower but everything’s up hill
So I’ll just close my eyes…
If I can dream forever then I never wanna die
I was born to be a dreamer in this hard up kind of life
If I can dream forever go ahead and blind my eyes
‘Cause these dreams are all I have and all these dreams I have are mine
Oh my, all these dream I have are mine
So If I can dream forever then I never wanna die…
I was born to be a dreamer in this hard up kind of life…
If I can dream forever, go ahead and blind my eyes…
‘Cause these dreams are all I have and all these dreams I have are mine.

Remember back when all we had to do was kill the time
Friday nights were backyard fires just keeping us alive
Remember back when all we ever wanted was to live
It never was what we would take it was always what we’d give
If I could find a way for me to do it all again
You know I would.
If I could find a way for me to do it one more time
I wish I could.
I wish I could.
Remember back when summer was still something to look forward to
All those days we wasted were the days we thought we’d never lose
Remember back before all these little things here mattered
Now we’re losing touch and time and place climbing all these ladders
If I could find a way for me to do it all again
You know I would.
If I could find a way for me to do it one more time
I wish I could.
I wish I could.
Nothing ever cut so bad a little time could not stitch.
Nothing ever hurt so bad a little love could not fix.
If I could find a way for me to do it all again
You know I would.
If I could find a way for me to do it one more time
I wish I could.
I wish I could.

Snowfall

It’s that time of year again
Time ticks by the fear sets in
Winter time it ain’t my friend
I’m worried now that it won’t end
It’s that time and place I guess
The less you see the more you get
This Winters leaving me with less
The deck is stacked and I’m placing bets
You talk slow like the snowfall
And I walk home on a phone call
Yeah, you talk slow like the snowfall
And I walk home on a phone call
I can hardly walk at all
Think it’s time that I left town
Somewhere my mind won’t slow me down
We’re all lost until we’re found
Something we could figure out
It’s that time I almost left
The kind of times we all regret
The Winters showing me my breath
It’s spilling out like secrets kept
And you talk slow like the snowfall
And I walk home on a phone call
Yeah, you talk slow like the snowfall
And I walk home on a phone call
And I can hardly walk at all
Yeah, you talk slow like the snowfall
And I walk home on a phone call
And I can hardly walk at all

Do you know where the sun might go
When she leaves this place
Have you seen where she hides
That pretty little face
Do you know if she sleeps
Or forever does she wake
Do you know where the sun goes
When she leaves this place
Do you know where the ocean
Goes to meet the skies
Have you seen where they meet
Have they told the reason why
Do you know if they’re lovers
Or only friends alike
Do you know where the oceans
Go to meet the skies
Do you know how much I love you
When I see you standing there
The way you do the things you do
You starve out this despair
Do you know the things I’d say
If I could find the words to share
Do you know how much I love you
When I see you standing there

Oh, River

There’s something about that river that reminds me I’m alive
Maybe the rest it’s given to these worn and weary eyes
Maybe the feeling that I get of being wild and being free
Maybe the endless memories it has given me
Oh, River - Oh, River
You’ve taught me so much
Oh, River - Oh, River
You ain’t taught me near enough
There’s something in the way you move, it inspires me to go
You never stop no matter what, no matter high or low
You’re unafraid of what’s ahead and if you are it never shows
You’re headed there, you always are, to wherever rivers go
Oh, River - Oh, River
You’ve taught me so much
Oh, River - Oh, River
You ain’t taught me near enough
Love wild - Love free - Love hard and Love mean
Love high - Love high - Love fast, and Love slow
Love one - Love all - Love short, and Love tall
Love light - Love heavy - Love now, and after all
Oh, River - Oh, River
You’ve taught me so much
Oh, River - Oh, River
You ain’t taught me near enough
