Hannah JaneYou've got your big girls Now you have your young one too Wonder if someday I can have them The way I once had you I remember your crazy remarks We'd get drunk and go out after dark Searching for someone we could take home You don't wanna be alone You don't wanna see the sun go down You don't wanna open the door And see her go One step and tomorrow comes Two steps and she's off with someone Three steps and it's all you know You'll be home She'll be gone So what are you gonna do about me? I'll be there when you have no one else Spotted the ocean in the south's Holy Land I'll be there, be your friend Hold on strong Don't let go There'll never be no one to take your place So don't you wanna reach out and take my hand One step and tomorrow comes Two steps and she's off with someone Three steps and it's all you know You'll be home She'll be gone
Hold My HandWith a little love, and some tenderness We'll walk upon the water We'll rise above the mess With a little peace, and some harmony We'll take the world together We'll take 'em by the hand 'Cause I've got a hand for you 'Cause I wanna run with you Yesterday, I saw you standing there Your head was down, your eyes were red No comb had touched your hair I said get up, and let me see you smile We'll take a walk together Walk the road awhile 'Cause I've got a hand for you 'Cause I wanna run with you Hold my hand Want you to hold my hand Hold my hand I'll take you to a place where you can be Hold my hand Anything you wanna be because I wanna love you the best that, the best that I can See I was wasted, and I was wasting time 'Till I thought about your problems I thought about your crimes Then I stood up, and then I screamed aloud I don't wanna be part of your problems Don't wanna be part of your crowd, no 'Cause I've got a hand for you 'Cause I wanna run with you Hold my hand Want you to hold my hand Hold my hand I'll take you to the Promised Land Hold my hand Maybe we can't change the world but I wanna love you the best that, the best that I can Hold my hand Want you to hold my hand Hold my hand I'll take you to a place where you can be Hold my hand Anything you wanna be because I... Hold my hand Want you to hold my hand Hold my hand I'll take you to the Promised Land Hold my hand Maybe we can't change the world but I wanna love you the best that, best that I can The best that I can
Let Her CryShe sits alone by a lamppost Trying to find a thought that's escaped her mind She says Dad's the one I love the most But Stipe's not far behind She never lets me in Only tells me where she's been When she's had too much to drink I say that I don't care I just run my hands through her dark hair Then I pray to God you gotta Help me fly away And just let her cry If the tears fall down like rain Let her sing If it eases all her pain Let her go Let her walk right out on me And if the sun comes up tomorrow Let her be Let her be This morning I woke up alone Found a note standing by the phone Saying baby, maybe I'll be back someday I wanted to look for you You walked in, I didn't know just what I should do So I, sat back down and had a beer and felt sorry for myself Saying let her cry If the tears fall down like rain Let her sing If it eases all her pain Let her go Let her walk right out on me And if the sun comes up tomorrow Let her be Last night I tried to leave Cried so much I could not believe She was the same girl I fell in love with long ago She went in the back to get high I sat down on my couch and cried yelling Oh momma please help me Won't you hold my hand? Let her cry If the tears fall down like rain Let her sing If it eases all her pain Let her go Let her walk right out on me And if the sun comes up tomorrow Let her be Let her cry If the tears fall down like rain Let her sing If it eases all her pain Let her go Let her walk right out on me And if the sun comes up tomorrow Let her be Oh, let her be

Running From An AngelDon't look a gift horse in the mouth Come on try and tell me what they're talking about Those things you're dealing with, you're living a lie Everytime I see you it makes me wanna cry The times we laughed and talked, seems like yesterday Then you let the white horse come and take you away They came to get you it was coal black The wheels were in motion, there was no turning back Running from an angel Running to the devil, devil yeah Running from an angel Running to the devil I gave up on you a long time ago Well, there's something I want you to know Your lying and cheating really tore us apart Please don't come home if you're gonna break my mama's heart Running, running, running Don't make me cry again
I'm Goin' HomeMama, please don't go Won't you stay here, for one more day? I've been your boy for so long now There's so much I, I still have to say The sky ripped open and I held my heart in my hand Like a soldier on his very last day Cried myself to sleep that night And I listened as I heard the angels sing Sha la la Sha la la la, la la la la I'm goin' home Sha la la la, la la la la I'm goin' home Something inside of me makes me scream How could God take you from a little boy You'll be alright he's by my side He's not a little boy, he's my pride and joy Summer on the radio, when the phone rang And it was Jeanette Saying boy we had to let her go I beg, "No, no not yet" You left six of us to fend for ourselves Guess it's just part of someone's master plan We'll say you left cause you're my best friend You were a light to them, And I smiled when the angels sang...
DrowningTrouble with the world is we're too busy to think about it, all right Why is there a rebel flag hanging from the state house walls? Tired of hearin' this shit about heritage not hate Time to make the world a better place Why must we hate one another? Well no matter what we gotta live together Just that you don't look like me, tell me what do you see When we pass on the street what do you wanna see P.E.'s coming is all I gotta say Wanna turn and run away They're just telling you how they see it Right or wrong they don't care, you wish that they would quit Drowning in a sea of tears Hatred trying to hide your fears Living only for yourself Hating everybody else Cause they don't look like you Nanci singing it's a hard life wherever you go About some fat racist living in Chicago Trying to teach his kids to hate everyone Well tell me why is that something you wanna teach your son? Why must we hate one another? When the people in the church, they tell me you're my brother You don't walk like me, ... you don't talk like me, saying Go back to Africa, I just don't understand I'm trying to be someone that he could look up to, but When I walk down the street, tell me what do you see I'm a man, I'm a man, I'm a man No I'm not like you Why do you hate me so I don't know, I don't know, I don't know Hating everybody else cause they don't look like you
TimeTime, why you punish me? Like a wave crashing into the shore You wash away my dreams Time, why you walk away? Like a friend with somewhere to go You left me crying Can you teach me about tomorrow, And all the pain and sorrow, Running free? Cause tomorrow's just another day And I don't believe in time Time, I don't understand Children killing in the street Dying for the colour of a rag Time, hey they're red and blue Wash them in the ocean, make them clean, Maybe their mothers won't cry tonight Can you teach me about tomorrow, All the pain and sorrow, Running free? But tomorrow's just another day And I don't believe in... Time is wasting Time is walking You ain't no friend of mine I don't know where I'm goin' I think I'm out of my mind Thinking about time And if I die tomorrow, yeah Just lay me down in sleep Time, you left me standing there Like a tree growing all alone The wind just stripped me bare, stripped me bare Time, the past has come and gone The future's far away Now only lasts for one second, one second Can you teach me about tomorrow And all the pain and sorrow Running free 'Cause tomorrow's just another day And I don't believe in time Time, why you punish me?
Look AwaySaw her standing there Tears upon her cheeks told me something was wrong I asked her what it was She looked away and said, "My daddy's home" I knew what that meant It meant that I can never see you again I had seen this once before I didn't wanna deal with it anymore "Look away", she said As she turned away from me And I tried to hold her Couldn't let her be Let her be, let her be I said "Why, Why do you make me cry" She said, "I love you so Look away, I don't wanna know" I saw her standing there Tears upon her cheek told me something's wrong I said, "What baby" She looked away and said, "My daddy's home" "Look away", she said As she turned away, my God I know I loved her couldn't let her be Let her be, let her be Look away Look away She said, "I love you so... look away"
Not Even The TreesAlone as I sit and watch the trees Won't you tell me if I scream will they bend down and listen to me And it makes me wonder if I know the words will you come Or will you laugh at me Or will I run Little boy says to me, "Where you goin' now son" I said, "I don't know where I'm goin' boy I only know where I'm from" And it makes me wonder If the stars shine when my eyes close Or does my brother's heart cry I don't know I'm a stranger in my home Now that everybody's gone Someone please talk to me Cause I feel you cry And you're sitting with him And I know I'll never see you again Lying down in Charleston under the Carolina sky You see I'm tired of feeling this pain I'm tired of living my own little lie And it makes me wonder When I see you in my dreams Does it mean anything? Are you trying to talk to me? I'm a stranger in my home Tell me are you feeling alone Someone tell me what to do 'Cause I'm feeling strong And I wonder how you feel Do y ou realize my pain is for real? I see you in my dreams And I wonder if you're looking down at me And smiling right now I wanna know if it's true When he looks at me Won't you tell me? Does he realize he came down here? And he took you too soon? And now my days are short an my nights are long I lay down with memories of you keep that keep me going on, going on It makes me wonder as I sit and stare Will I see your face again? Tell me, do you care I'm a stranger in my home Living life on my own Right now I just can't see 'Cause I'm feeling weak And my soul begins to bleed And no one is listening to me, not even the trees
GoodbyeTomorrow used to be a day away Now love is gone and you're into someone far away I never thought the day would come When I would see his hand not mine Holding on to yours because I could not Find the time And now I can't deny Nothing lasts forever But I don't wanna leave and see the teardrops in your eyes I don't wanna live to see the day we say goodbye Now there comes another part of life I go alone... Sitting at a bar with Chris, That I can't leave cause my house ain't no home I just wanna touch you girl I wanna feel you close to me Without your love I would give up now And walk away so easily So maybe while we're young We'll figure out together That even with the pain there's a remedy We'll be all right I don't wanna live to see the day we say goodbye When I first met you I couldn't love anyone But you stole my dreams and you made me see that I can walk into the sun and I could still be me And now I can't deny Nothing lasts forever But I don't wanna leave and see the teardrops in your eyes So baby why break up Lets figure out together That even with the pain there's a remedy, and We'll be all right I don't wanna live to see the day we say goodbye We say goodbye Oh goodbye Goodbye
