How many ways
can I make somebody happy today
and how many times
did you helped em change their mind
about the way that things are going in their lives
It might be hard
We’re just trying to do our part
A shining arc-light falls
on everything
every day and every night
It’s shining on
It’s shining on
It’s shining on
It’s called Calafrio
We take it with us wherever we go
Me and my amigos
Living on Calafrio
The cooler we are
the better it gets
We’re never to far
from all of friends
Having a good time
out in the sunshine
knowing that everything will be alright

And It was out of my hands
You were totally way out of your head
But I felt
I knew
I knew what to do
I didn’t have a choice
it was out of the blue and
you’d never fallen down
like that before
You’d never spun around
I can’t ignore
anymore
these things
It’s just my heart and it sings
It sings
It sings
And I’m a big fan of everything that you do
I want to make sure your making it through
Come on now and think about the possibilities
that we have ahead and we’re holding the keys
You say it’s rock and roll
when you’re out of control
You’re there until the end
but you’ve still gotta know
It’s time to go home but you won’t go alone
You say it’s rock and roll
when you’re out control
This time everything’s right in line
I tied it all together and I saw every sign
I didn’t think you’d bounce back quite that fast
Didn’t think I’d forget about the past
never lasts, never dies
It’s just my head and it cries, it cries, it cries ahhhhhh
I really only remember one occasion when
I made a comment about your reputation
I never thought it’d affect our relationship now
look now look now

Riptide
04:35
|
|||
|
Undone by my own design
Yeah snow-blind to every sign
Same old brand of sabotage
Caught up in the same mirage
Keeping one foot out the door
Like this time and the time before
I’ll be shrinking away like the waning moon
Then I’ll wax poetic when I hear the tune
Should I flip the script should I just skip town
What am i supposed to do when it all goes down
Not quite what you need but you keep me around
What am i supposed to do when it all goes down
Cant catch a break
Can’t even think
Cuz my mind is racing
I’m on the brink
Didn’t want her here
Didn’t want her gone
Like a riptide is pulling me
Into a song
Just cant get my head on straight
My brain just wont accommodate
Some things never reach my heart
But I knew that from the very start
Should I flip the script should I just skip town
What am i supposed to do when it all goes down
This makes me wanna drink
Wishing things could be just fine another place another time
Maybe I should just fess up
Knowing things will be alright
another place another time

Don’t drag me down
Don’t talk to me
Don’t mess around
Don’t laugh at me
Don’t watch me fall
Don’t cry for me
Don’t make me small
Don’t die for me
Don’t watch me drown
Say a prayer for me
Don’t tell me what I could never be
We all just need somebody
We need somebody
We need somebody
We need somebody
Just resurrect
The ghost of me
Don’t apologize
Out of sympathy
I’m here right now
So talk to me
Let’s play around
Just laugh with me
Fall down with me
Get high with me
We made it here
Chaotically

Neil Young

I was on my own with a heart of gold
I heard this song on the radio
7 in the mornin and its time to go
Just one thing that I got to know
Is our life gonna get easier
Is our life gonna get any easier
I'm a million miles from my home
firestorm burns the hill that I know
I hear Neil Young on the radio
Singing about an old man with a heart of gold
Stripped of a life it was taken away
They broke him down
they left him whole
Out there's something that I gotta see
I don’t know if it was meant to be
Out there’s something that I gotta know
Its over now and I cant let go
Its all alright
Time gets tight
Far away world closer to me
Falling wayward souls to be
I was sitting there in the bar alone
The same song playin on the radio
(If) the old man can’t cope - how can I
Take at Look at my life, as it passes by
Is our life gonna get any easier?
Our life’s gonna get easier!!!
Far away world closer to me
Falling wayward souls to be
Time to put it down
Time to go alone
we’ve been goin and goin and gone
Will we make it? - that depends
Or Maybe it’s just how, this song ends
I'm a million miles from my home
firestorm burns the hill that I know
Far away world closer to me
Falling wayward souls to be

Your fears,
your scars,
I like you the way that you are
All your dark places and multiple faces,
I like you the way that you are
So never go,
I like all the things that you know
So many traces and beautiful spaces
you’re often just too scared to show
Let’s go, let’s go
9AM
born again,
wide awake
sleeping in
We watch the sun set and then
I gravitate to your light again
2AM
Settled in,
We’ve fallen into something so let’s try another day of it
and I’m gonna lay everything on the line
Your downs and outs,
I love when you scream and you shout
All your emotions are drops in the oceans
I like everything you’re about
So never change,
don’t clean-up and don’t rearrange
Nothing is perfect and that’s how we work it
no matter how often it rains
Let’s go, let’s go
9AM
born again,
wide awake,
sleeping in
We watch the sun
set and then
I gravitate to your light again
2AM
Settled in,
(and) We’ve fallen into something so let’s try another day of it
and I’m gonna lay everything on the line

The Plan
04:56
|

Tonight
we’re gonna take the town
down
Tomorrow
we’re gonna regret what we did
but not right now
and not out loud
I’ve been working on a plan
to become a better man
It’s gonna take me turning a-round
everything I’ve learned up until now
We know time is up
We know what is wrong
We know what is strong
and the difference has to come from us
Tomorrow
We won’t forget what was done
(and) it won’t be gone
but you’ll push us on
I’ve been working on a plan
To become a better man
It’s gonna take me turning a-round
Everything I’ve learned up until now
We know time is up
What know what is strong
we know what is wrong
and the difference has to come from us
We waited til now
All these changes are taking us way too long
Don’t doubt
The courage it takes to admit your mistakes
And move on
No more
Abuses that lead to excuses and outright lies
the reality
that we all see
who is that person
I know that it’s not me
Let’s go now
We needed this for so long

Stumbling In
04:05
|

|
I was long gone before I went away
I didn’t have what it takes
There was something in your eyes
Struck out when you walked in
Blacked out in a tailspin
I Wasn’t thinking right
that night
this won't be the first time it's crashing on me
I know someday you’re gonna find
a place to rest your weary mind
but when?
Now I'm standing in the light
Can't you see the stars shining bright
for you
Standing in the light
That's the best I'll ever do
Well I’m not scared anymore
Like the time before
All i ever wanted were the simple things in life
nothin more, nothing more
Throttle wide open on the 442
Swallowing pills just to see what they do yah
Stumbling in -
Stumbling out-
It's was all over when you started to shout HEY!
Are ya hearing me now?
Now I'm standing in the light
Can't you see the stars shining bright
for you
Standing in the light
That's the best I'll ever do
Yah It’s all that I can scream about for a minute
Life’s what I dream about with you in it
Don’t walk away
What’s left to say

Son of Steve Garvey
03:50

It’s really all the same although the times have changed
just another game that we have to play
I like to entertain
I wanna feel the pain
I wanna know how it’s gonna be
when you decide that you’re bored and you’re done with me
Now more than ever before
you find me belly-up to the bar
How about I take you to the show
How about I open the door just to let you know
Someday you’re going to tell me what you like doing
So I can take your breath away again
If I was the son of Steve Garvey
Maybe you’d see things my way
Or at least see me again
My father would come home and tell me
“son go about be a Garvey”
He would tell me I could win
not that I never should begin
The only way he ever played
was with all out desire, it’s insane
He’s on the television and I’m at home
I’m watching dad run the bases but I’m alone
He’s going to first, he’s rounding third
My old man sure could play
He’s coming home in fifteen days

Great Lengths
04:01

We get there every time
Whenever I’m alone
I close my eyes and get to thinking
and everything starts to feel right
Whenever we’re together
we don’t need to say anything
no not at all
We may like it here
But we’ll run away again
And be fine on the other side
I will go to lengths that you will never know and
I will be there every time
I will take every lesson that we learned together and
Make the most until we cross every line
With every passing day
We do a lot to get a little
We find a way to just get by
It might take forever
But we’ve got that kind of time
Don’t need to wonder why
And we always want to learn
So we take another turn
It goes on and on
Yeah we never want to burnt
So we take another turn
It goes on and on

Through the Smoke
03:39
|

|
Promises and diamonds and labels and silence
all because somebody said we should try this
all in the name of love
all because we think we want it
tolerance and stories and losses and glories
all because we’ll be together for always
all in the name of love
all because we have to have it
see through the smoke and look through the mirror
I’m calling your name out I hope you can hear it
one more night, one more day
making everything okay, today
All the noise subsides when you get to a place
and you finally realize all it really takes is
learning to empathize, hanging in as it shakes you hardest
see through the smoke and look through the mirror
I’m calling your name out I hope you can hear it
one more night, one more day
making everything okay, today
