I know there’s a light In the summertime I have through the night Kept it burning You Say Everything’s Alright What A Beautiful Lie From my satellite I can see everything Strychnine stitches in time Withering on the vine When we recombine We’ll bottle the lightning one more time Bottle the lightning one more time From grey to black and white Now we’re choosing our sides I see in your eyes We’re headed for a reckoning I stay out of sight You won’t see me for a long time All my nickels and dimes And pennies in your wishing well But we’re walking through the desert alone And the maps in the future will show We were so close to water that Anybody here who had the magic beans could sow I know there’s a light In the summertime I have through the night kept it burning Please stay here tonight Right by my side Put your hand in mine we’ll bottle the lightning one more time bottle the lightning one more time bottle the lightning one more time

All Right 03:22
I tried vapors, pills and shrinks Spilled it out in miles of ink But all I needed was someone to say baby It’ll all be all right I was wandering this world alone I had no place that I called home And all I needed was someone to say baby It’ll be all right Lying awake and I’m thinking Alone I don’t know what I’d do Cause there’s too many fakers among us I try to say what I know is true I was broke and I had to fold Down the river I’d been sold You looked me in the eyes and said baby It’ll all be all right I judged the cover but not the book When I took a second look I saw you standing there saying baby It’ll all be all right Lying awake and I’m thinking Alone I don’t know what I’d do Cause there’s too many fakers among us Just trying to say what I know is true Lying awake but I’m dreaming ‘Bout the very first moment I knew Because that look in your eyes was a promise And here’s a promise I have for you. When you’ve dropped out on all your dreams You’re not as lost as it might seem Cause I’ll be there for you, I say baby It’ll all be all right I still believe in you, I say baby It'll all be all right.

Save me I keep on having the same dream Where I'm falling I'm falling Awaking When the audience is silent It sounds like a siren approaching Maybe I should check all the labels for warnings Cause I'm scratching the surface of crazy I'm out of my body I'm out of my head Going out of my head It's amazing Amazing I feel The wages of future sin I’m here on the outside looking in Once Again Sedate me Everything I wanted is fading I twist but my resistance is failing I float like a feather emotional weather A changeling Lately I'm talking to nobody listening I'm counting but the rhythm escapes me I’ve an audience with silence No contest no violence a light in the tunnel awaking Awaking I feel The wages of future sin I’m here on the outside looking in Once Again This is the state of the artist I’m on the edge of falling apart at the seams When in doubt I’ll take it to heart I think I traded a life for living a dream I feel The wages of future sin I’m here on the outside looking in Once Again I feel The wages of future sin I’m here on the outside looking in Once Again

I am not the smartest apple in the orchard I may not be qualified But you can come to me whenever you have trouble I am always on your side I will never be a strong man I’ll never press 283 But if my arms are safe and warm when you come running Then that’s strong enough for me I can always be a lighthouse darling Whenever you are lost at sea And I will love you for the rest of my life I will love you for the rest of my life And when you hold my hand when we are walking And when you’re riding on my knee And when I sing to you when you are sleeping I know who I was meant to be So I wrote this little song about you When I heard this melody It said I’ll love you for the rest of my life I will love you for the rest of my life I will love you for the rest of my life I will love you for the rest of my life I don’t mean we’ll always be together Someday I’ll have to let you go But if there’s one thing I hope you remember It’s that your daddy loves you so I know I won’t get to be there through the ending But I was with you from the start Since I first held and heard you softly breathing I have held you in my heart And as long as I have breath to say it Then let me say it once again That I will love you for the rest of my life I will love you for the rest of my life I will love you for the rest of my life I will love you for the rest of my life
