TRAVELING MAN ON THE MOVE

 

WORE OUT YOUR SHOES

 

WORSHIPED THE SUN 

 

WORE THE RAIN

 

SAW THE STARS REACHING

 

OUT FOR YOU

 

FELT THE SAND

 

SHIFT BENEATH YOUR FEET

 

 

 

EVER SO FADED

 

INTO SUMMERS GLOW

 

THE SECRETS YOU TAKE WITH YOU

 

INTO THE DYING LIGHT

 

WHEN YOU GO

 

IT ALL MAKES PERFECT SENSE TO YOU

 

DARK OF NIGHT

 

ON THIS LONELY AVENUE

 

HEADING OUT OF TOWN

 

NOTHING TO SLOW HIM DOWN

 

BACK TO THE STARS

 

WHERE HE FEELS ONE

 

NEVER STILL

 

ALWAYS ON THE MOVE

 

NEVER STAYS TOO LONG

 

LIKE A SUMMER SHOWER

 

ONE MINUTE HERE

 

AND THE NEXT ITS GONE

 

 

 

WHAT DO YOU SEEK

 

THAT YOU CAN'T FIND

 

I HOPE YOU FIND IT ALL

 

IN GOOD TIME

 

JUST PICK A DAY

 

AND FLY AWAY

 

INTO SUMMER MIST

 

DISAPPEAR LIKE YOU WERE NEVER HERE

 

NEW SOMETHING THERE

 

HE'S GOT TO SEE

 

WHY NOT

 

WHILE HE'S STILL FREE

 

 

A SPIRIT WANDERING

 

A QUEST A DREAM

 

THE MYSTERIES IN BETWEEN

 

ON YOUR WAY TO EVERYTHING

 

EXCEPT THE THING YOU MISSED

 

YOU CAST AWAY THE SENTIMENTS

 

YOU ALWAYS THINK THERE'S TIME

 

THEN YOUR GONE

 

NO TRACES LEFT BEHIND

 

BACK TO THE STARS

 

WHERE HE FEELS ONE

 

IT ALL MAKES PERFECT SENSE

 

TO YOU

 

YOU CAN TELL ME

 

YOU CAN TELL ME

WHAT'S LEFT OF HEAVENS LIGHT FADES

 

FINDS THE DAWN AGLOW

 

I TAKE YOUR HAND IN MINE 

 

OFF WE GO

 

GOLDEN SUNLIGHT SHINES

 

FILLING IN THE LINES BETWEEN US

 

MY HEART CAPTURED IN THE VOID

 

BEFORE THE VEIL OF SILENCE FALLS

 

AS MUCH AS I'M A PART

 

I CAN IMAGINE WELL

 

WHAT'S IN YOUR HEART

 

THE REST YOU CAN TELL ME

 

 

A STORY GROWS

 

IT ALL TAKES TIME

 

ONE LOOK INTO YOUR EYES

 

CARRIES ME FOR MILES AND MILES

 

INSIDE YOUR LOVE

 

BESIDE YOUR HEART

 

LONG AS YOUR GRACE ALLOWS ME

 

TO LOVE YOU

 

I WOULDN'T DREAM

 

OF MISSING A MOMENT

 

I COULD SPEND WITH YOU

 

 

THE SUN GOING DOWN AGAIN

 

LEAVES ME TO SIGH

 

WHAT I FEEL INSIDE

 

SHOULDN'T BE A SECRET

 

LOOK INTO MY EYES

 

AS I LAY DOWN BESIDE YOU

 

COVER YOU OVER WITH MY LOVE 

 

CLOSE ENOUGH AND NEAR TO WHISPER

 

SECRETS IN MY EARS

 

 

 

YOU CAN TELL ME

 

WHAT YOU THINK I WANT TO HEAR

 

WON'T GIVE UP UNTIL WE MOVE FROM HERE

 

GET TO THERE

 

AS MUCH AS WE'RE BOTH

 

 A PART OF SOMETHING

 

WORTH HOLDING ONTO

 

TAKE MY FIRE

 

KEEP IT BURNING WILD

 

ALL AGLOW, LIGHT UP THE NIGHT

 

I CAN IMAGINE WELL

 

WHAT'S INSIDE YOUR HEART

 

THE REST YOU CAN TELL ME

 

A STORY GROWS

 

IT ALL TAKES TIME

HEAVEN SENT

 

 SOMEONE SWEET AS YOU

 

COMES ALONG JUST ONCE IN YOUR LIFE

 

WHEN YOU TAKE MY HAND IN YOURS

 

MY HEART TURNS TO STONE

 

THERE'S NO GUARANTEES

 

WE COULD LOSE CONTROL

 

RIDE RECKLESS ON A WILD

 

NORTHWEST WIND 

 

DAYS AND DAYS COULD GO BY 

 

THAT WE'LL NEVER GET BACK AGAIN 

 

 

HOW DO I GET TO THAT PART OF YOU

 

WHEN I DO

 

WE'LL DANCE ON A PIN

 

FALL OFF INTO A STARRY SKY

 

FLOATING UP THIS HIGH

 

ITS NOT HARD TO SEE WHY

 

WHAT'S INSIDE NOW TO STAY

 

SO SAFELY, LOCKED AWAY

 

SOMEWHERE I N YOUR HEART

 

 

 

I WANT TO TAKE YOU TO

 

EVERYTHING YOU DREAM

 

WOULDN'T THAT BE A THING 

 

SOFT NIGHT, FEELS RIGHT

 

YOU RIGHT BESIDE ME

 

INNOCENT DELIGHT

 

LIKE A STAR BURNING BRIGHT

 

YOU MAKE MY WORLD

 

SOMETHING GOOD

 

HOLD ME AT END OF DAYS LIGHT

 

SLEEP WITH ANGELS

 

WATCHING OVER

 

TAKE MY HAND, BEFORE WE LAND 

FALL OFF INTO STARRY SKIES

JUST YOU AND I

HEAVEN SENT

SOMEONE AS SWEET AS YOU

SURELY GOES FORWARD

TO A PLACE YOU

ALREADY KNEW

YOU GLIMPSE YOU'VE SEEN

YOU HAD A DREAM

ALL WE HAD TO DO

WAS COME ALONG

AT THE RIGHT TIME

SHOULD OF BEEN SOONER

I GUESS HEAVEN SENT

TAKES SOME TIME

DANCING ON A PIN

HOW DO I

GET TO THAT

PART OF YOU

MY HEAD SWIMMING WITH THOUGHTS 

 

MY EARS FILLED WITH A RESTLESS SEA

 

CRASHING IN CLOSE TO ME

 

WINTER SPEAKS LOUD AND CLEAR

 

GRAY SKIES COMING DOWN

 

I TURN TO YOU

 

TO RAISE MY SPIRIT 

WELL ABOVE AND BEYOND IT

WHERE SUMMER BREEZE STILL SOFTLY BLOWS

A FLEETING EMBRACE

IS ALL YOUR ALLOWED 

MOVING THROUGH A SPACE IN TIME

LIKE THESE CLOUDS SLOWLY PASSING BY

DAY JUST LIKE NIGHT

WINTER MOON

OUTSHINES THE SUN

THE FOREST SPENT AND STILL

A LONELY FEELING

A CHILL

I FEEL YOU HOLD ON

JUST A LITTLE BIT TIGHTER

CLOSER TO ME

FALLING TO

FALLING UNDER A SPELL

TIRED AND SLOW

WINTER MOON

 

 I KNOW TO BLAME

 

ON AND MORE THE SAME

 

 

 

ITS JUST YOU

 

THAT SAVES ME

 

YOU KEEP MY HEART AND HOME

 

YOU KEEP ME GOING

 

DON'T YOU FALL TO FAR FROM ME

 

YOU KNOW LOVE SHOWS

 

FROM TIME TO TIME

 

DAY TO DAY

 

ANYWAY TIME ALLOWS

 

 

DEEP IN FOREST GREEN

 

AND EVERYWHERE IN BETWEEN 

 

JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE THERE

 

A FLEETING EMBRACE

 

IS ALL YOUR ALLOWED

 

MOVING THROUGH SPACE AND TIME

 

LIKE THESE CLOUDS SLOWLY PASSING BY

 

DAY JUST LIKE NIGHT

 

WINTER MOON

 

OUTSHINES THE SUN 

 

 

A BEAUTIFUL LIGHT

THROUGH THE DARKNESS OF NIGHT

 

RESTLESS SPIRIT DRIVE

 

STRAIGHT THROUGH

 

YOU LINGER IN MY DREAMS

 

MAYBE I'M IN A HURRY

 

TO TASTE YOUR LOVE

 

ALL THESE STARS

 

REMIND ME OF YOU

 

SHINE AND, MAKE FOR YOU

 

A BEAUTIFUL LIGHT

 

A STORY YOU JUST, CAN'T PUT DOWN

 

 

I SEE YOU WAITING

 

THE SUN IS RISING

 

DIAMONDS, IN GOLDEN LIGHT

 

IF I LOOK AWAY

 

I'M AFRAID YOU MIGHT

 

DISAPPEAR  

AN APPARITION

A THOUGHT AS I GET NEAR

TREES GO PASSING BY

 

CATCHING THE EARLY LIGHT OF DAWN

 

ALL THE SWEETNESS OF THE MORNING

 

LIES WITH YOU

 

THE MYSTERY THE WAITING

 

TOO MUCH TIME TO THINK

 

SEE WHERE ALL THIS LEADS TO

 

JUST BECAUSE WE WERE MEANT TO

 

 

FINALLY THERE YOU ARE

 

WAITING AT THE DOOR

 

A VISION COMPLETE

 

NEVER A NEED STRONGER

 

LIFE WOULD LAST FOREVER

 

JUST THINK WHAT WE COULD DO

 

ALL THIS LOVE

 

JUST A START

 

YOU CAPTURE MY IMAGINATION

 

YOU OWN MY HEART

 

JUST WHEN I THOUGHT

 

I'D NEVER SEE

 

A BEAUTIFUL LIGHT

 

YOU APPEARED

 

LIKE THE FIRST STAR IN THE SKY

 

THE REASON IS ABUNDANTLY CLEAR

 

WE BOTH KNOW WHY

 

PROVIDENCE EMBRACED US

 

LIFTED US TO HIGHER GROUND

 

GATHERED UP THE LOVE

 

 WE FOUND

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

SUNRISE ALL ALONE

 

SUNRISE ALL ALONE

RAIN FALLING

 

TURNING INTO SNOW

 

SITTING HERE

 

WATCHING YOU GO

 

SADNESS IN MY HEART

 

ALREADY STARTING

 

YOU KNOW I WISH YOU WELL

 

SO MANY STORIES

 

WHO DO I TELL

 

WHO DO I SING TO

 

IF NOT YOU

 

ITS A LONG WAY FROM HERE

 

TO SOMEONE NEW

 

AND IF AT ALL

 

THERE'S NO ONE TO CALL

 

 

 

HEY ALL OF THIS DESPAIR

 

WAKING UP AND FINDING

 

YOU NOT THERE

 

THE SUNRISE ALL ALONE 

 

JUST LIKE I RIDE

 

A  HORSE UNDER ME

 

AND ONE AT ITS SIDE

 

I HAVE TO TAKE IT

 

ONE DAY AT A TIME

 

TRY TO HIDE THIS

 

 LONELY HEART OF MINE 

 

FIND SOME JOY

 

A HAPPY SIDE

 

TIL DARKNESS OVERTAKES

 

THE SETTING SUN

 

 

 

SITTING BY THE FIRE ON THIS NIGHT

 

MOONSHINE ON THE SNOW 

 

SPARKS FLY INTO AN UNSETTLED SKY

 

HITS ME

 

SINKS  IN ALL  AT ONCE

 

ALONE

 

JUST LIKE BEFORE

 

LOVE FOUND ME

 

WORKED ITS WAY INSIDE

 

I'M NOT SURE

 

WHAT THIS IS I FEEL

 

HOW COULD I HAVE KNOWN

 

IT WASN'T REAL

 

SOMETHING APART FROM LOVE

 

JUST LIKE I RIDE

 

A HORSE UNDER ME

 

AND ONE AT ITS SIDE

 

I HAVE TO TAKE THIS

 

ONE DAY AT A TIME

 

TRY TO HIDE THIS

 

LONELY HEART OF MINE
