Sail on Sweet Soul
Down beside these rocks where waves crash like giants
Sits a man with his thoughts and a smile
Just a song in his heart and a ghost in his mind
A lifetime of memories on trial
Well the blue of his eyes matches that of the sea
Where he knew he always belonged
And he faces the wind that is whipping like sin
Like a king he takes his crown
And he says let these squalls please carry me away
Let my life be that of a hurricane
Oh I’m stepping out of line
Just to leave it all behind
So say a prayer for me as I drift out to sea
I’m leaving here tonight
Well if I should find your good graces in time
If I could right what I’ve done wrong
I’d change all your days in so many ways
To feel like an old familiar song
But the past is the past and the tides they all change
We all must float along
So I’ll face the wind that is whipping like sin
Sail on sweet soul sail on
And he says let these squalls please carry me away
Let my life be that of a hurricane
Oh I’m stepping out of line
Just to leave it all behind
So say a prayer for me as I drift out to sea
I’m leaving here tonight

He looked them in the eyes and he knew that they were gone
Just a gang of restless hearts and the beat of one good song
The train tracks ran through the middle of the earth
Chase them to the river’s edge just to see what they were worth
A few messages a day to see if they were still alive
Counting down the minutes to the bell that sounded right on time
And he said to his friend man I’m walking out the door
I keep spinning my wheels I know that we were meant for more
What do you say
We chase our dreams and run
There’s nothing left here for us now
Skin it man forget the past somehow
What’s done is done
We can’t get it back
So follow me across these tracks
We’ll live like thieves who fight the setting sun
Let’s move along
We’re burning through the scenes like a film we used to know
And we’re living in a dream hoping we don’t have to go
No I won’t stop now dodging trains that come our way
The devil in the night will lead us to a brand new day
What do you say
We chase our dreams and run
There’s nothing left here for us now
Skin it man forget the past somehow
What’s done is done
We can’t get it back
So follow me across these tracks
We’ll live like thieves who fight the setting sun
Let’s move along
And I’m wondering where this all will lead
If I’m fighting this alone
Then I turn and see these kids stand right by me
And I know we’re walking down that same old road
Not letting go
What do you say
We chase our dreams and run
There’s nothing left here for us now
Skin it man forget the past somehow
What’s done is done
We can’t get it back
So follow me across these tracks
We’ll live like thieves who fight the setting sun
Let’s move along
Oh I’m too deep into this so I’m long gone
Let’s move along

Gold
Everything we
Everything we’ve worked for is gone
Except for this love
And all we chose to
All we chose to believe is all gone
Except for this love
Words are ringing in my ears
You failures and your fears
Will see the light of day
But tonight we wash them away
In desperation we all sing
And I would not change a thing
This was our road
And we paved it in gold
In these waters
In these waters clean and cool
We found this love
Across these oceans
Across these oceans I give to you
This undying love
We face a frightening road
With dangers nobody knows
But never alone
Yeah never alone
The earth could shake and slowly die
And I’d never question why
I’d just take hold of your hand
I’d just take hold of your hand
In desperation we all sing
And I would not change a thing
Yeah this is our road
And we paved it in Gold
We gave all we had
Through sunshine and rain
Through laughter and pain
We gave all we had
And if I should fall
If time slips away
When we’re old and grey
Oh my heart still beats true
I’m glad I fell with you
