Your Time Is Now
03:13

Time is a one way ticket
To a place you've never been
As uncertain as the weather, as elusive as the wind
Cast away your doubts and ease your worried brow
The universe is calling, your time is now
Don't take black and white and make them into Dorian Gray
Tomorrow doesn't wait around for any part of today
Fail fearlessly, succeed with grace and rise above the crowd
The universe is calling, your time is now
So if you want to drink from life's loving cup
Sometimes you have to dig deep, sometimes you have to look up
Time has a way of creeping and sneaking up on you
Changing all the locks on the things that we thought we knew
Don't let them stand in your way, don't let them bring you down
The universe is calling, your time is now
So if you want to drink from life's loving cup
Sometimes you have to dig deep, sometimes you have to look up
And remember
A little faith goes a long way
A little faith goes a long way
Fail fearlessly, succeed with grace and rise above the crowd
The universe is calling, your time is now

I Got Lucky
03:23
|

|
From the fields of Carolina across the Great Divide
High above the hills or down by the riverside
Wherever I go I know
I got lucky when you found me
You can take me to a beach in sunny Mexico
Stand atop Victoria Peak and watch it all below
Wherever I go I know
I got lucky when you found me
From the blush of the morning to a sky of brilliant blue
To the far light that shines the starlight on you
Wherever I go I know
I got lucky when you found me
You can put me in a carriage, give me champagne in the park,
Take me out on the town until long after dark
Wherever I go I know
I got lucky when you found me
You can count up all your money, you can count up all your jewels
But I just count my blessings because I can count on you
Wherever I go I know
I got lucky when you found me
From the blush of the morning to a sky of brilliant blue
To the far light that shines the starlight on you
Wherever I go I know
I got lucky when you found me

That Train
03:24
|

|
There used to be a time when the blues disappeared
And stand by me was all that he could hear
Back in the day when that engine roared
But that train doesn't stop here anymore
There used to be a time when it was all in bloom
And no white elephant was in the room
Back in the day when that engine roared
But that train doesn't stop here anymore
Any port in a storm, any bed that will keep him warm
Any place where he can start over again
Start over again
There used to be a time when it was all green lights
No detours up ahead or roadblocks in sight
Back in the day when that engine roared
But that train doesn't stop here anymore
There used to be a time when he crossed the line
And he passed from the surreal to the sublime
Back in the day when that engine roared
But that train doesn't stop here anymore

The fog lingers until the afternoon
A vista that stretches out across these dunes
Icon, Icon where have you gone
I keep looking for you, what's going on
The fate of Lady Anne lies in these walls
She dances in the mirrors and down the halls
She's gone, she's gone somewhere in the night
Was her love in vain or did she finally get it right
Icon, Icon where have you gone
I keep looking for you, what's going on
They come to try to change the way things are
Brings their brands so they can leave their mark
But that won't happen here, no way no ho no dice
Before you dance with Lady Anne you really should think twice
Icon, Icon, where have you gone
I keep looking for you, what's going on

Tender Is The Night
03:35

Love in a summer's breath
Heals your body and steals your mind
Love for the asking
Unconditional and undefined
After all this time, after all this time
We'll be together tonight
When the sun goes down and the moon is high
Tender is the night
With her hands she guides you
With her heart she finds you
With her smile she lights your way
From here to yesterday
After all this time, after all this time
We'll be together tonight
When the sun goes down and the moon is high
Tender is the night
Love on a winter's night
Free and easy on your mind
Love for the asking
Unconditional and undefined
After all this time, after all this time
We'll be together tonight
When the sun goes down and the moon is high
Tender is the night
Tender is the night

Two For Twenty
03:30
|
|||

I've been through hell and high water
I've been down roads that never end
I've been to places that don't exist
On a scale from one to ten
Two for twenty, two for twenty
They say numbers never lie
Two for twenty, two for twenty
Taking my chances and stayin' alive
I never knew where it was coming
Each day entered through a different door
But I could be certain when they drew the curtain
That I had never been here before
Two for twenty, two for twenty
They say numbers never lie
Two for twenty, two for twenty
Taking my chances and stayin' alive
Morning comes before the sun has risen
Lonely days and restless nights
My life passing though a prism
Of shifting shapes and changing lights
Two for twenty, two for twenty
They say numbers never lie
Two for twenty, two for twenty
Taking my chances and stayin' alive

Carry On
04:00
|
|||
|
A mask of mystery followed me every day
The hand that I was dealt the one I had to play
Sometimes in my funk, I lost sight of the prize
When where I should have been looking
Was right before my eyes
All I want to do is feel the fire, raise my voice in the choir
The way that you inspire gives me faith to carry on
The way that you inspire gives me faith to carry on
The minor chords hold each and every scar
From every blow that landed in the heart
Washed up on the shore, hanging out to dry
In the end what I had to find was right before my eyes
All I want to do is feel the fire, raise my voice in the choir
The way that you inspire gives me faith to carry on
The way that you inspire gives me faith to carry on
It's not about what I have, it's not about what I own
It' all about whatever I do I won't fact it alone
Any time I feel sorry for myself
I see some soul crying out for help
There's always someone there worse off than you are
Stop complaining, stop blaming rise up and raise the bar
All I want to do is feel the fire, raise my voice in the choir
The way that you inspire gives me faith to carry on
The way that you inspire gives me faith to carry on

California girl with sunshine in her hair
Imagines her future and how she'll get there
But LA wasn't happening and New York was messing with her mind
With a suitcase and a dream she shut it down and left LA behind
New York heartbeat, New York hustle
To break a leg there are dues to pay
Through the turnstiles everybody takes the field
But not everybody gets to play
She couldn't give it away
She couldn't give it away
A closet for a bedroom, kitchen just as small
Pipes hissing through the night at bugs on the wall
The stage is set, the curtain rises on a New York day
She would have worked for nothing
But nothing was all that came her way
It's a few years later, she's made the grade
Takes a breath to think about now and then
All that rejection, so much sacrifice
Once upon a time way back when
She couldn't give it away
She couldn't give it away

You wake up each day and you think you know what to expect
By the time the suns set you're still waiting on deck
One out of three you're in the Hall of Fame
In other walks of life it's not the same
I'm trying to get by with three chords and a bridge
Crossed the valley and stream where the water never flowed
Packed my bags, cranked it up and headed on down the road
Not much has changed after all this time
Where it leads your guess as good as mine
I'm trying to get by with three chords and a bridge
A day like to day and so many before
So much on his mind as he shuts the door
Goes to work down at Union Square
So invisible he's just barely there
So you wake up each day and you think you know what to expect
By the time the suns set you're still waiting on deck
One out of three you're in the Hall of Fame
In other walks of life it's not the same
I'm trying to get by with three chords and a bridge

Start The Fire
02:50
|
|||
|
I was born in the water to fly in the sky
And everything between here and there is the story of my life
My shadow is getting longer as the evening reappears
A trick of the light or some testament to the years
So start the fire, start the fire
Sometimes it doesn't stay lit
Start the fire, start the fire bit by bit
Start the fire
He was 70% the, 50% of the time
And the rest he spent rummaging through the clutter is his mind
He climbed hills of indifference from morning through the night
Trying to get some ownage on the story of his life
So start the fire, start the fire
Sometimes it doesn't stay lit
Start the fire, start the fire bit by bit
Start the fire
If it happens once you're lucky
If it happens twice you're blessed
And if it doesn't happen at all get in line with all the rest
I'm a breath away from destiny and miles down the road
I'll keep searching for the best in me, the part I make my own
So start the fire, start the fire
Sometimes it doesn't stay lit
Start the fire, start the fire bit by bit
Start the fire
