Let's Hit the Road!

Our feet they dance across the earth
Our spirits are entwined
Lay with me under the crystal sea
And beauty we will find
Come with me and we will see
The beauty of the earth
Mountains and the ocean
Sights of which we've only heard
We'll hoist the sails of our red ship
And sail the sea with style
Take my hand and we will fly on
Past the farthest mile
We can come and go
To and fro as we please
'Cause when you're living on the road
You're living life with ease
Open your heart
Open your soul
Let's rock and roll
Let's hit the road
Ask me where we're going
And I'll tell you this my friend
The trip is more the journey
Than where the journey ends
We'll make it where we end up
And we'll find out all along
That down the road we send love
And recieve a life of song
Open your eyes
Open your mind
So much to find
Don't fall behind

Mother of earth shines her light in my eyes
I could not look away even if I tried
The sound of the highway is singing my tune
From the river banks down to the rolling dunes
Imparted dreams into a dreamless mind
A feeling so unique and hard to find
From the highest mountain down to the ocean's edge
Never mind what the nay-sayers of your dreams said
She's got it all from head to toe
Her desert's dry, but her river flows
Imparted dreams into a dreamless mind
A feeling so unique and hard to find

Hang Loose
03:42
|

When your plans hit the fan
And you're decieved
You can't stand, you can't land
You just seethe
Listen man, do not mourn
And do not grive
Just take my hand, let it go
Learn to breathe, alright now
From the left, from the right
You're attacked
Down all day, up all night
Cards are stacked
But you must play, you must lose
To win it back
Day by day, if you cruise
You'll find the path, to the light now
Hang loose
What's the rush
What's the fear
All you've ever wanted
Is all right here
If you let it be
Take it slow, play it cool
No need to run
Ride the wave, be the fool
Have your fun
We are saved, seen within
We are one
There's no grave, there's no sin
Under the sun, only love now

Translucent

We got struck by a flash from what awaits
Now the passing water's pooled
Her flood fades into radiant glow
Her crown with colors jeweled
She fooled me once but I got wise
Saw she wants me hanging round
From flowing skies she picked me up
Soaking wet
Lady luck
Don't you ever let us down
Blinded by your blitz
Only afterglow remains
To know it fits from far away
Gives a man's mind growing pains
Through which I'll let you pour through
'Til I can get more of you
We got matched by the spinning hands of fate
Their plans our plot unfolds
Forking out on longing limbs
Hot water our future holds
So cold at the brim of pouring
The mute suspense we bear
Hoping they'll lend us woven clouds
Covered up
Out of sight
So we can meet up in the air
Blinded by your blitz
Only afterglow remains
To know it fits from far away
Gives a man's mind growing pains
Through which I'll let you pour through
'Til I can get more of you
We got held up at the garden's gate
But glimpsed the promised side
The heaven's split and rung like bells
And told us then to hide
We'll ride it out in dreaming
The storm will not run dry
We'll bide our days above the world
'Til the one
We can come out
To shine way up on high
The rain and the light coming shining through
Your eyes of blue stained glass
I'm blinded but I'm finding out
How to love by letting them pass
Blinded by your blitz
Only afterglow remains
To know it fits from far away
Gives a man's mind growing pains
Through which I'll let you pour through
'Til I can get more of you

(Oh Fuck) A Bit Too Much
03:50
|
|||
|
One too many cigarettes
Bid farewell a good night's rest
And if you think you've seen it yet
Hold on boy, you're in for a test
Going 'round thinking you're the best
'Til too much tobacco hits your chest
Spilling shame on the camel's crest
Vomit on your denim vest
Oh fuck
A bit too much
Walk into the gas station
See the black box, your search is done
Corner of your eye, nine bucks for one
You think you're in for a night of fun
Swilling all my troubles gone
Not too long 'til this goes wrong
Drown my troubles in the booze
Another swig so much to lose
Oh fuck
A bit too much
Take a hit and hold it down
Now I'm jumping at the slightest sound
Flower pot down in my lungs too long
Should've known when to put down the bong
Can't tell if I'm hot or cold
I'm seeing angles lost in fold
Much too young to feel so old
For a dime my soul is sold
Oh fuck
A bit too much

Step right in, the show is about to begin
It's one you know, forever ebbs and flows
Right into light and sound, follows you all around
The way that the world was made, I tell you to be not afraid
In the tent, a lifetime that came and went
As many have passed before, with the same cast and score
A party of pain and joy, playing with fire and toys
As sure as we die, we're born
Rise again to perfrom
Come one, come all
Come big and small
Come empty, leave open
At the greatest show on earth

Tunneling
02:58
|

|
Stare into my eyes and stay perfectly still
I know what I've done but not what I will
It'll kill me or keep me returning to you
I'm asleep and I'm running from what I must do
Tunneling, in spite of funneling
Tunneling, in spite of funneling
Light at the end of the tunnel
Take a long look and tell me what you see
How well can you make out the person called me
Send him my greetings, deliver them fast
For each day's the first one but it could be the last
Tunneling, in spite of funneling
Tunneling, in spite of funneling
Light at the end of the tunnel
Vision grown heavy, the dark's closing in
The edges of my mind worn tightrope thin
Looking all for something to grip
Can't see my hands so it seems I must slip
Tunneling, in spite of funneling
Tunneling, in spite of funneling
Light at the end of the tunnel
I turn and surrender
In the embers burns a whole world
From within the void
It's love
Tunneling, in spite of funneling
Tunneling, in spite of funneling
Light at the end of the tunnel

Unfinished Business
02:37
|

|
Full speed
Trying to get to where I'm going
I need
A carpet or a magic potion
More weed
A bowl or joint is what I'm smoking
Run free
Floating off into the ocean
You think
That anybody could stop me
Chain link
Don't you know I came by hopping
More drink
Soon the floor will need some mopping
The brink
Off the top I'll soon be dropping

Walk in the Red Sand
03:16
|
|||
|
Coming down the narrow road
Past the plains is something new
We enter a far out land
Where the wind sings a different tune
The sky turns to a clear blue sea
The mountains burn with fire red
Down by the valley we travel
By the waking moon we're led
Walk up the face of the mountain
I'll get as high as I can
Look off the top of the canyon
And walk down through the red sand
Crepuscular lady emerges
Among the blazing spires
As the eyes of the sleepy sun grow weary
Across the valley of fire
And as the darkness falls
Across the valley of burning light
The flames are climbing tall
And you know you're feeling alright
Walk in the red sand and feel your soul
You'll swear it was eternal life
When the summer turns to fall
Across the valley of fire

Bound for More

I knew this chick once
We were acquainted well
The tricks she showed me
Swore I'd never tell
She like to party
And kick back too
Every night she took me
Left me black and blue
I rolled up slowly
A new whip each time
Her hips went whirling
With the help of wine
The king's best daughter
You know, the youngest one
Under velvet covers
She'll show you the sun
She's the rambling type
She gotta know why
She's the gambling type
When the stakes are high
Can't say her name
Though I still feel her kiss
If you wanna play her game
I'll tell you man, it goes a little something like this
