WE WERE DREAMING
midnight wisdom in a sound i heard you whisper
on a porch outside of your house you cigarette flickers out
turn off the light beside the door before you light one more
you'd listen as i play you songs and you'd say maybe
they're more than what we are, more than just crazy
so much bigger than this world, not sure i'm ready for this girl
we were dreaming under the moon
i played the music, you called the tune
we were dreaming under the moon
midnight widom in a song, wonder what it means
you had me figured out, we were only eighteen
in the rising heat of early june, i think your friends'll be here soon
we'd stay outside till dawn stretched out on lawnchairs
inside we both just knew, there's so much out there
so much bigger than this world, i'd be so lost without this girl
we were dreaming under the moon
i played the music, you called the tune
we were dreaming under the moon
we were dreaming, but awoken soon
lazy lovers, our hearts outstrewn
caught in motion, the world so new
strange emotion, the stars in motion
i'll share the view...with you...we were dreaming
midnight wisdom in the sky, as it grows colder
you told me listen close, before we're older...
STREETLIGHT
i drive alone looking for an exit that'll lead me home
on a dim back road, somewhere i don't know
tearing down the highway, looking for a highway sign of life
but this dark road looks like every dark road in the night
you could be my streetlight
shining through the cold night
you would be the only sight
you could be the night glow
coming through my window
you would lead the way home
got turned around, lost my direction somewhere in this town
the night falls down crashing without a sound
roaring through the darkness, going forty over without a sight
but this dark road looks like every dark road in the night
you could be my streetlight
shining through the cold night
you would be the only sight
you could be the night glow
coming through my window
you would lead the way home
FORTUNES OF SILVER AND GOLD
time will slide away
offers itself in nights and days
leaves me wide awake
no more time for dreams
i don't know what you mean
but i'm so much older it seems
the song will carry on
as we move to the rise of the dawn
it stretched across the lawn
no more time for sleep
i'll rise to my feet
and i'll march to the beat
someday we'll head on out down this road
we'll break out, don't worry just what you've been told
we'll search out our fortunes of silver and gold
we'll break out, don't worry just what you've been told
time will slide away
as we move through these night and days
are you wide awake?
i want you here with me
all the things we will see
we'll see how the time sets us free
we'll journey past these streets
while all the world is fast asleep
through deserts hills and seas
our destiny takes form
we rise up through this storm
and we march right on
someday we'll head on out down this road
we'll break out, don't worry just what you've been told
we'll search out our fortunes of silver and gold
we'll break out, don't worry just what you've been told

HIGH LIFE
slow down, so i can see your face
the sound is so loud, i think it's time we left this place
city lights are buzzing all around
so fast, i don't think that they'll slow down
darling, i justwant to be with you now
this high life
is just so bright
you know that we'd be alright
if we forgot about this high life
my feeling is that it's time that we climb down
enough living way up so far from ground
don't need the fallout of the factories
can't breathe the fantasy they feed to me
darling, i think it's time we left this town
this high life
is just so bright
you know that we'd be alright
if we forgot about this high life
remember who we are tonight
is more than this high life
you know that we'd be alright
without this high life
abstraction, this high life is a fantasy
it's a fraction of everything i want to be
and action's the only thing that's stopping me now
this high life
is just so bright
you know that we'd be alright
if we forgot about this high life
remember who we are tonight
is more than this high life
i think that we'd be just fine
without this high life
SAD EYES
darling, it's just the wind blowing outside
i'll close the windows, so you can ease your mind
darling, i hear it blowing all the time
but that doesn't chance the way the sun will shine
and if your eyes are closed, you 'll never know
if everything's alright
and if your heart stops for just a minute
and you're holding on to this sad sad world
shake your head to begin it
there's so much more that you deserve
you've got sad eyes, sad eyes looking back
you've got sad eyes, sad eyes on the past
if you hold on to somebody, sometimes you've got to let them go
you've got sad eyes, don't you know?
darling, i think the wind is starting to die
i'll bring the car around and we'll go for a ride
darling, i think the day is just so fine
now you're driving down the highway by my side
and if you stay asleep, you'll never see
the beautiful scenery
and if your heart stops for just a minute
and you're caught back within the past
shake your head to begin it
we're driving down oh so fast
CHORUS
i know you're feeling down baby, that's why i've got to sing to you
i guess we'll keep on driving maybe until the sky outside turns blue
and if you hold on to somebody, sometimes you've got to let them go
cause sometimes your head gets too damn heavy
from holding on to old sad souls, and you've got...sad eyes...
ON MY OWN
i could be a mountain top
i could be the earth and rocks
i could be such solid ground to walk
now i'm on my own
i could be the song you sing
i could be all the love you bring
i could be most anything
now i'm on my own
tired of waiting for the right time
sitting still i'm gonna lose my mind
no more waiting for the right time
i gotta go
i could be the night and day
i could be as bright as cosmic rays
or reflect back as the moonlight babe
now i'm on my own
i could be the kick drum and the bass
i could be the lyrics on this page
i could be the man on this stage
now i'm on my own
tired of waiting for the right time
sitting still i'm gonna lose my mind
no more waiting for the right time
i gotta go
