Wastin' Time
05:17

There is candlelight on the curtain
There's a home where the road never ends
Threw my reasons away but make no mistakes
'Cause I, I ain't wastin' time
There's a blue moon above the valley
Oh there's a train running late on the track
Just the song of its wheels it begs me to sleep
But I ain't wastin' time
And I ain't wastin' time
Time is just a highway
And I ain't wastin' time
In the middle of the road
Ain't wastin' time
'Cause time's all there is to waste
And I ain't wastin' mine
No I ain't wastin' time
There's a cool wind off the ocean
At the shore where my ship will sail in
Yes I am castaway but you heard me say
That I ain't wastin' time
There are hours we spent on the telephone
There are words that don't come between friends
Let me tell you again alone I can't win
But I ain't wastin' time
And I ain't wastin' time
Time is just a highway
And I ain't wastin' time
In the middle of the road
Ain't wastin' time
There's no time left to waste now
And I ain't wastin' mine
No I ain't wastin' time
And I ain't wastin' time
Time is just a highway
And I ain't wastin' time
In the middle of the road
Ain't wastin' time
There's no time left to waste now
And I ain't wastin' mine
No I ain't wastin' time

There's a place up on the northern coast
Where if you listen you can hear the ghosts
It's where the redwoods meet the sea
And it's a place that's deep inside of me
Voices call from yesteryear
Saying things that no one wants to hear
Like those sailing ships that came to call
They will vanish softly in the fog
I believe
I believe they're watching us
For all mankind
I believe they're watching us
There comes a time
I believe they're watching us
And they'll be watching
I believe they're watching us
I believe
I believe they're watching us
That woman and man
I believe they're watching us
Will never end
I believe they're watching us
And they'll be watching
I believe they're watching us
Somewhere
I believe they're watching us
They'll be watching
I believe they're watching us
Somewhere
As they look down upon the land
I'm sure it's something they'd all understand
There's no progress made without it's loss
And someone has to pay the cost
I believe
I believe they're watching us
For all mankind
I believe they're watching us
There comes a time
I believe they're watching us
And they'll be watching
I believe they're watching us
I believe
I believe they're watching us
That woman and man
I believe they're watching us
Will never end
I believe they're watching us
And they'll be watching
I believe they're watching us
Somewhere
I believe they're watching us
They'll be watching
I believe they're watching us
Somewhere

Long Green
05:03
|

Life is mostly peaceful in this sleepy ocean town
But sometimes the helicopters they go flying around
And they make a lot of noise when they go chopping up the sky
Don't look now mom and dad nut there's an army going by
Long green more sterling than silver
Long green much greater than gold
It's the root of all evil
It's the way to your dream
It's the color of money
Long green
Taken as a whole I guess my life is mostly good
But now the marijuana mafia is camping in the woods
It really does cost more than gold
When you weigh it pound for pound
But the locals they don't see much local product passed around
Long green more sterling than silver
Long green much greater than gold
It's the root of all evil
It's the way to your dream
It's the color of money
Long green
Lead
Everything considered I just couldn't ask for more
But it really spoils the mood now
When they're breaking down the door
And when they're up there watching it's an eerie kind of dread
And I get to feeling uneasy as they hover overhead
Long green more sterling than silver
Long green much greater than gold
It's the root of all evil
It's the way to your dream
It's the color of money
Long green
It's the root of all evil
It's the way to your dream
It's the color of money
Long green

Sisters In My Heart
05:30

High upon the mountain lives the king of the hill
He sits on his throne at the edge of the river
Where the water runs so still
And all of this weather is just a fire in his soul
He sits upstairs on the top of the world
Looks down on the valley below
Where the road goes on forever
Yes the road goes on forever
In a house full of sisters in my heart
Living down in the city of hope
And when we climb to the mountain above
We look down on the valley of love
In a house full of sisters
Every morning narrow streets they take me where I live
Tonight I hide in the heart of the jungle
They leave me there foe dead
Some times I hear them laughing some times I tell a joke
We all long for the top of the mountain we live in the valley below
Where the road goes on forever
Yes the road goes on forever
In a house full of sisters in my heart
Living down in the city of hope
And when we climb to the mountain above
We look down on the valley of love
In a house full of sisters
You you you are on your way
And I too I am on my way
Lead
I stand in a room full of strangers and it drags me into sleep
I drink from a fountain of angels where the water runs so deep
Sister can you hear me calling from my bed
Sister can you save me and raise me from the dead
Where the road goes on forever
Yes the road goes on forever
In a house full of sisters in my heart
Living down in the city of hope
And when we climb to the mountain above
We look down on the valley of love
In a house full of sisters

That Won't Stop My Love
04:14
|

You know my love is a shower of devotion
My love's a lighthouse it keeps on shining through
If we had to live in a shack by the ocean
Baby that won't stop my love for you
That won't stop my love for you
And I don't care if we don't have the money
And it doesn't matter if all the bills are due
All I know is your lips are sweet as honey
And those bills won't stop my love for you
Those bills won't stop my love for you
My love will climb a mountain build a castle in the sky
I will be your lantern baby, I will be your guide
We will build a fire let its flame fill the night
And if all of our dreams don't come true
That won't stop my love that won't stop my love for you
Break
The love I feel is deeper by the minute
And I take it with me in every thing i do
If the world explodes with all the people in it
That won't stop my love for you
That won't stop my love for you

I was floating on a placid sea
Stifled with monotony
Then your ship sailed along and now I believe
It's with you I'll meet my destiny
Because I'm like the other part of you
And I know you feel the same way too
I was holding it back now there' nothing I can't do
It's stronger by the day it's true
And I see new horizons
And a world full of dreams that come true
I know it's our time I can always depend on you
Always depend on you
Just like Romeo and Juliet
This love of ours is heaven sent
You make of me a beast you make of me a pet
This love is as good as it gets
I tell the darkness just get out of town
Because I'm strong enough when you're around
And you pick me up when mister blues gets me down
You make me want to play a clown
And I see new horizons
And a world full of dreams that come true
I know it's our time I can always depend on you
Always depend on you

Slow Down Take It Easy

Slow down take it easy
All you got is time
Going a thousand miles an hour
Is no way to spend your life
Everything is going fast enough
It's getting to be tough
To keep up with the way it goes and goes
It's new and then its old
Bought and quickly sold
It's getting harder to keep up with things
Faster and faster round and around
The only way I'm going now is down
Caught up in an experiment lost in the maze
No one knows the right direction these days
It's like a mouse in a cage
So Slow down take it easy
All you got is time
Going a thousand miles an hour
Is no way to spend your life
Lead
To find a way to make it can be tough
But you just can't speed it up
It all happens in its own sweet time
Sit back and recline
Relax and let it happen
Harder and harder never do enough
Who you are depends upon your stuff
Longer and longer murder by degree
You keep it all your life like a disease
It's a brain freeze
Slow down take it easy
All I got is time
Going a thousand miles an hour
Is no way to spend your life
So slow down take it easy
Slow down take it easy

Time goes so fast the present is past
It all rushes by in a moment
As each promise made becomes yesterday
You're never quite sure where the time went
When I reach the edge I make you this pledge
I'll always be right beside you
Right here and now I give you this vow
Inside my heart I know it's true
Lost in the world like a holy man
I searched for my soul in the wilderness
These are the things I would say and do
If there was a me for you
Sax
It's always so clear whenever you're near
This is the love of a lifetime
I'd hold you so close I'd never let go
If only you were mine
For someone alone there's no one there
They live their life without a care
These are the things I would say and do
If there was a me for you
I would give you the stars
Every moment of a lifetime
With you I'm lighter than air
When I'm right beside you
Sax
Lost in the world like a holy man
I searched for my soul in the wilderness
These are the things I would say and do
If there was a me for you
I would give you the stars
Every moment of a lifetime
With you I'm lighter than air
When I'm right beside you
If there was a me for you

Timbertown

Yesterday the news came down they're closing up the mill
Though I knew that the day would come I'm feeling empty still
'Cause who's have thought not long ago
When those trees were crashing down
That there'd come a day of no more lumber in Timbertown
We still got our places to eat we've got our scenic train
But a hundred years of history just passed by like the pouring rain
So pass me that bottle boy I'll pour us another round
No one goes out much anymore here in Timbertown
In Timbertown last of your kind in another time
You made his place go round and round
I've heard them say the things that go around
Will come back around I think I hear the sound
Of tears in Timbertown
What about the guy in the woods the man who drives a truck?
If it's all that he's ever known is he just out of luck?
It's not a matter of time until we start it all again
It takes a thousand years for those giants to grow my friend
It hurts every one of us for a good man to lose his job
'Cause there goes anyone but for the grace of God
Don't look for help up above there ain't none coming down
You're on your own out here in this timber timber timber Timbertown
Last of your kind in another time
You made his place go round and round
I've heard them say the things that go around
Will come back around I think I hear the sound
Of tears in Timbertown
Tears in Timbertown
