ODESSA LEFT TOWN

Odessa left town so fast
Bright blue days of summer
A few friends called
With nothing much to say

We all saw it coming
Really no surprise
Off to ‘Frisco
City by the bay

Everybody knew that she was leaving
Everybody knew including me
No one really wants to talk about it
And she’s the only one... who thinks she’s free

I’ve been writing letters
I throw ‘em all away
Doesn’t really matter anyway

I’m just getting angry
I keep it all inside
I’m no good at what to do or say

Everybody knew that she was leaving
Everybody knew including me
No one really wants to talk about it
And she’s the only one... who thinks she’s free

I have come to understand a thing or two
Consequences come from everything you do
Maybe not today, but someday you will too
Then it’s not too late... maybe I’ll just wait

Odessa showed up with nothing
She left with much the same
And still the place seems
Empty since she’s gone

I’m just like the closet
Nothing left inside
I guess I always knew
That she was wrong

Everybody knew that she was leaving
Everybody knew including me
No one really wants to talk about it
And she’s the only one... she’s the only one
She’s the only one... who thinks she’s free

MOTEL

Seeing through the static
And everything erratic
Can sometimes sharpen your view
Promises are broken
And words left unspoken
You did what you had to do

Well, I’ve been at this motel
For the better part of hell
And the future I can’t even see
Your reflection, you say
Always gives you away
And the past is the past, let it be

And it’s just like last year
And just like next year
And it’s all the same in between
Oh I – Yeah I – I don’t know what I believe

I’ve been watching the window
And watching TV
But so far there’s nothing to see
Parking lot is empty
Just like my brain
I wish I had somewhere to be

Well, I guess it must be Christmas
And I don’t care
It feels like September ‘round here
Clarence took the car
So I headed to the bar
But I can’t even finish this beer

And it’s just like last year
And just like next year
And it’s all the same in between
Oh I – Yeah I – I don’t know what I believe

And those silver bells are ringing today
Silver bells are ringing
And I’m just here singing away

Now four o’clock is near
You’ll be sending us cheer
We’ve been hoping to see you all day
Your remorse and good will
Are convenient and still
We’ll take what you’re giving today
We’ve been waiting for something
To spur us along
And this is as good as it gets
Yeah, with one lucky pull
And a load of your bull
You expect us to all just forget

And it’s just like last year
And just like next year
And it’s all the same in between
Oh I – Yeah I – I don’t know what I believe
Oh I – Yeah I – I don’t know what I believe

 MY LOVE ROSE

I’m gonna buy a star
For my love Rose
She’s off to Tallahassee
There she goes
We’ll start a constellation
You and me
From here to Tallahassee
We can see

I’ve been living bare
Since you’ve been gone
Nothing much to eat
And nothing’s on
I sold my gun and
Bought some magazines
Off to Tallahassee
Sight unseen

I came home and
Took a look around
Checked the mail and
Opened what I found
A note from Rose
Yeah, she was moving on
Down in Tallahassee
She was gone

I stay up and
Stare out at the stars
You can do the same
From where you are
Look until you
Find the one that glows
That’s the one I named
For my love, Rose

WESTERN PA

The sky and the sea
Were the same bluest blue
No discernible horizon
Just me and you

She’d been there once before
In a car long ago
When things were different
Things you don’t know

Well, she stepped right off
Of that Greyhound bus
It was late on Saturday night
Out in Western Pennsylvania
The air was warm and she was a sight
Well the motel looked like twenty-five bucks
And a broken neon light
And she was gone, she was gone, she was gone

Everybody gets lonesome
Everybody needs a friend
Nothing here is permanent
Nothing but the end

The door opened wide
Without making a sound
I could hear her breath
But there was no one around

Well, she stepped right off
Of that Greyhound bus
It was late on Saturday night
Out in Western Pennsylvania
The air was warm and she was a sight
Well the motel looked like twenty-five bucks
And a broken neon light
And she was gone, she was gone, she was gone
She was gone, she was gone, she was gone

Sadness is a part of life
It’s a lesson we all learn
No one gets off easy
And happiness is earned

Everybody gets lonesome
Everybody needs a friend
Nothing here is permanent

Well, she stepped right off
Of that Greyhound bus
It was late on Saturday night
Out in Western Pennsylvania
The air was warm and she was a sight
Well the motel looked like twenty-five bucks
And a broken neon light
And she was gone, she was gone, she was gone
She was gone, she was gone, she was gone
She was gone, she was gone, she was gone

FEARLESS WARRIORS

This used to be our bar
Strange how it’s come so far
The rules have changed and
So has the clientele

Up to the roof they say
It’s Independence Day
Explosions in the sky
So what the hell

If anyone thinks they’re happier than me
They’re dying
If anyone thinks they’re lonelier than me
They’re lying

It’s over before “I do”
Everyone knows it’s true
That’s the way that this one always goes
You think you’re happy now
You’re just the “easy out”
That’s the part that everybody knows

If anyone thinks they’re happier than me
They’re dying
If anyone thinks they’re lonelier than me
They’re lying

Fearless Warriors light the sky
Nothing’s different this July
The more things stay the same
The less I play the game
Fearless Warrior you and I

This used to be our bar
This used to be our bar

BACK TO THE RIVER

I’ve been over that rainbow honey
But I’ve been back awhile
I’m so tired of feeling so funny
And hidin’ behind a smile

But it’s over now - Yeah, I’ve crossed that line
And I’m older now - And it’s fine fine fine
I’m so sick of sittin’ here lying
But I don’t know what’s true
Guess I’m gonna have to start tryin’
Yeah that’s what I’ll do

But it’s over now - Yeah, I’ve crossed that line
And I’m older now - And it’s fine fine fine

Pick me up (Well I could use it now)
Put me down (Before it gets around)
I’m all right (That’s what I wanna say)
Back to the river and I’ll cleanse my soul today

Take me back to the Illinois River
Where I can finally breathe
Call my name and torture my liver
I’m wearin’ my heart on my sleeve
But it’s over now - Yeah, I’ve crossed that line
And I’m older now - And it’s fine fine fine

Pick me up (Well I could use it now)
Put me down (Before it gets around)
I’m all right (That’s what I wanna say)
Back to the river and I’ll cleanse my soul today

Well I’m not that kind of man
I hope that you understand
I’ve been away too long
Caught in the undertow
Gotta just let it go
Nobody’s all that strong
I’m hopin’ and prayin’
But never just sayin’
That ain’t the way back home
Well I’m over tryin’ yeah
But I’m just not buyin’

But I’m willing to go...
Willing to go it alone

Pick me up (Well I could use it now)
Put me down (Before it gets around)
I’m all right (That’s what I wanna say)
Back to the river and I’ll cleanse my soul today
Back to the river and I’ll cleanse my soul today
Back to the river and I’ll cleanse my soul today

GIRLFRIEND IN TACOMA

Girlfriend in Tacoma
It’s a long, long way from home
Like waking from a coma
And I’m here all alone
We can send each other sweet love notes
And we can talk about it on the phone
Girlfriend in Tacoma
I’m seriously on my own

Girl in Oklahoma
How can this be too serious
Dream of her aroma
I think I’m just delirious
Can we really be more than friends
Is it all a bunch of “just pretend”
Girl in Oklahoma
It’s hard to comprehend

I know, I know, I know
I know, I know
It's hard to comprehend

Do you count the stars
I can still see ours
If you look right now you can almost
hear the sound of the breaking hearts

Girlfriend in Pomona
It’s not that far away
But distance makes the heart grow fonder’s what they say
Is there anyone in the world
Who is gonna be the perfect girl
Girlfriend in Pomona
I know it’s all absurd

I know, I know, I know
I know, I know
I know it all absurd

Girlfriend in Tacoma
It’s a long, long way from home
Long, long way from home
Long, long way… from home

LOST AND FOUND

I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY
I DIDN'T KNOW WHERE TO START
I DIDN'T WANT TO BE THE ONE
WHO WOULD BREAK YOUR HEART

IT DOESN'T REALLY SEEM FAIR
I NEVER ASKED TO BE "THE ONE"
DOESN'T MAKE IT ANY EASIER
WHEN IT'S ALL SAID AND DONE

SOMETIMES I THINK I'VE CHANGED MY WAYS
BUT JUST LIKE EVERY TIME IT FADES
AND I CAN TELL YOU HOW IT ENDS
DON'T WANT TO TAKE YOU DOWN WITH ME
DON'T WANT TO MAKE YOU DROWN WITH ME
IT'S ALL CLICHE AND "LET'S BE FRIENDS"

THAT'S THE WAY IT'S ALWAYS BEEN
I COULDN'T CHANGE IT IF I TRIED
NOTHING THAT YOU COULD HAVE SAID OR DONE
THAT COULD CHANGE MY MIND

I UNDERSTAND THAT IT'S TOO LATE FOR ME
I JUST ACCEPT THAT'S HOW IT GOES
I MADE MY PEACE AND I'M OKAY WITH IT
AS FAR AS ANYBODY KNOWS

SOMETIMES I THINK I'VE CHANGED MY WAYS
BUT JUST LIKE EVERY TIME IT FADES
AND I CAN TELL YOU HOW IT ENDS
DON'T WANT TO TAKE YOU DOWN WITH ME
DON'T WANT TO MAKE YOU DROWN WITH ME
IT'S ALL CLICHE AND "LET'S BE FRIENDS"

DON'T WANT TO BE THE ONE WHO LETS YOU DOWN
DON'T WANT TO LEAVE YOU LOST AND FOUND
BUT WE BOTH KNEW THIS FROM THE START
DON'T WANT TO HAVE THIS CONVERSATION
WE'RE BOTH GONNA NEED CONSOLATION
THERE'S JUST NO EASY WAY
NO EASY WAY TO BREAK YOUR HEART
HEART   •    HEART

SOMETIMES I THINK I'VE CHANGED MY WAYS
BUT JUST LIKE EVERY TIME IT FADES
AND I CAN TELL YOU HOW IT ENDS
DON'T WANT TO TAKE YOU DOWN WITH ME
DON'T WANT TO MAKE YOU DROWN WITH ME
IT'S ALL CLICHE AND "LET'S BE FRIENDS"

THERE NEVER REALLY IS A FAIRYTALE
AND WISHES DON'T COME TRUE
BUT IF THERE'S "HAPPY EVER AFTER"
I HOPE IT HAPPENS FOR YOU
I HOPE IT HAPPENS FOR YOU

DON'T WANT TO BE THE ONE WHO LETS YOU DOWN
DON'T WANT TO LEAVE YOU LOST AND FOUND
BUT WE BOTH KNEW THIS FROM THE START
DON'T WANT TO HAVE THIS CONVERSATION
WE'RE BOTH GONNA NEED CONSOLATION
THERE'S JUST NO EASY WAY

THERE’S JUST NO EASY WAY
NO EASY WAY TO BREAK YOUR HEART
HEART•HEART

EMPTY SKY

EMPTY SKY - LOOK MY WAY
STAND MY GROUND - TIL YOU TURN GREY
EMPTY SKY - GOES ON AND ON
CLOSE MY EYES - UNTIL YOU'RE GONE

THERE'S A MESSAGE IN THE HILLS
YOU CAN HEAR IF YOU'LL BE STILL
HOLD YOUR BREATH AND CLEAR YOUR MIND
AND EMPTY SKIES YOU WILL FIND

EMPTY SKY AND ALL ALONE
WE ARE ALL JUST ON OUR OWN
EMPTY SKY WILL SET YOU FREE
ALL THE SAME JUST YOU AND ME

THERE ARE VOICES IN THE WIND
WORDS OF LOVE THEY ALWAYS SEND
FILL YOUR HEART AND MAKE YOU CRY
A COMMON THREAD AND EMPTY SKY

EMPTY SKY AND ALL ALONE
WE ARE ALL JUST ON OUR OWN
WE ARE ALL JUST ON OUR OWN

LIKE A SPARROW

SUNSET IN THE DESERT SKY
LIKE A FIRE IN THE DEVIL'S EYE
COOL BREEZE AS THE SUN BEGINS TO FADE
ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN SHORE
NOT SURE WHAT WE CAME HERE FOR
NOW AND THEN I BELIEVE WE'VE BEEN BETRAYED

I COULDN'T TELL YOU HOW THE STORY ENDS
I'M STILL CONFUSED HOW IT ALL BEGINS
AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN IS STILL UNCLEAR
IT ALL SEEMS CRAZY AT A CASUAL GLANCE BUT
I WOULDN'T CHANGE IT IF I HAD THE CHANCE
THE BITS AND PIECES ARE
THE WHOLE THAT BRINGS ME HERE

LIKE A SPARROW
STRAIGHT AND NARROW
I CAN FEEL I'M FREE
GETTING STRONGER
NOT MUCH LONGER
HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE

BRING THE NET I'M FALLING
WON'T YOU CATCH ME IF YOU CAN
THINGS WOULD BE SO SIMPLE
IF YOU'D ONLY HOLD MY HAND
FOR AWHILE

PEOPLE COME YEAH AND PEOPLE GO
YOU FALL IN LOVE BUT YOU NEVER KNOW
THINGS CAN CHANGE BEFORE YOU

GET THE CHANCE TO BREATHE
YOU TAKE A CHANCE EVERY NOW AND THEN, BUT
IT'S GETTING HARDER NOT TO JUST PRETEND
WE'RE ALL JUST LOOKING FOR
THE ONE WE CAN BELIEVE

LIKE A SPARROW
STRAIGHT AND NARROW
I CAN FEEL I'M FREE
GETTING STRONGER
NOT MUCH LONGER
HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE

BRING THE NET I'M FALLING
WON'T YOU CATCH ME IF YOU CAN
THINGS WOULD BE SO SIMPLE
IF YOU'D ONLY HOLD MY HAND
FOR AWHILE

I COULDN'T TELL YOU HOW THE STORY ENDS
I'M STILL CONFUSED HOW IT ALL BEGINS
AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN IS STILL UNCLEAR
IT ALL SEEMS CRAZY AT A CASUAL GLANCE BUT
I WOULDN'T CHANGE IT IF I HAD THE CHANCE
THE BITS AND PIECES
ARE THE WHOLE THAT BRINGS ME HERE
THE BITS AND PIECES
ARE THE WHOLE THAT BRINGS ME HERE
THE BITS AND PIECES
ARE THE WHOLE THAT BRINGS ME HERE

WHAT IF WE NEVER WENT TO SLEEP

Sometimes I think I must be dreaming again
I am outside looking in
I’m back where I’ve always been
I close my eyes and hope it all goes away
I’m left with nothing to say
It’s just a dream anyway

What if the sun never went down
What if the earth stopped turning around
What if we just got in too deep
What if we never went to sleep

I lie awake eyes open wide to the light
I don’t see day or see night
I don’t see wrong or see right
I don’t believe in many people these days
I think that normal has changed
I don’t think it’s just a phase

What if the sun never went down
What if the earth stopped turning around
What if we just got in too deep
What if we never went to sleep

Well close your eyes – Surprise
The world just goes away
Now close your mind – and find
Another place to stay
Now open wide – inside
And let is all escape
If the earth stopped turning around
It doesn’t matter anyway

What if the sun never went down
What if the earth stopped turning around
What if we just got in too deep
What if we never went to sleep

What if the sun began to fade
What if the earth just lost its way
What if we all turned into sheep
What if we never went to sleep
What if we never went to sleep

WHISKEY AIN’T WORKIN’

WHERE THERE WAS NOTHING YOU JUST APPEARED
LIKE CINDERELLA ON A CALIFORNIA NIGHT
YOU TOOK MY HEART AND YOU RAN AWAY
I KNOW THE STORY AND IT JUST AIN'T RIGHT
MAYBE YOU KNOW THE STORY TOO
'CAUSE IT COULD HAPPEN TO YOU

THE WHISKEY AIN'T WORKING
WHAT YOU GONNA DO
DRIVE OUT TO THE DESERT
FOR A LITTLE DOSE OF TRUTH
YOU DON'T HAVE TO BOTHER
OR PRETEND TO EVEN CARE
THE WHISKEY AIN'T WORKIN'
THERE'S NOTHING REALLY THERE

I OWE YOU MORE THAN YOU REALLY KNOW
THE CLOCK WAS TICKING BUT I PAID NO MIND
I HAD A THEORY OF HOW IT GOES
AND I WAS TELLING ME THAT THAT WAS FINE
I HAD A CHANCE MAYBE MORE THAN ONE
I THOUGHT THAT I WAS PROBABLY DONE

THE WHISKEY AINT' WORKING
WHAT YOU GONNA DO
DRIVE OUT TO THE DESERT
FOR A DIFFERENT POINT OF VIEW
NO ONE'S GONNA BOTTHER YOU
OR TRY TO BE YOUR FRIEND
THE WHISKEY AIN'T WORKIN'
UNTIL THE BITTER END

NO ONE WAS WRONG NO ONE WAS RIGHT
THEN WHY AM I STILL THINKING
BOUT YOU EVERY NIGHT
NOBODY KNOWS EXCEPT FOR YOU
I STARTED THINKING YOU GOT NOTHING ELSE TO DO

I CAN’T BELIEVE WHERE THE TIME HAS GONE
I USED TO WONDER WHAT YOU’RE DOIN’ NOW
I CAN’T IMAGINE IT’S CHANGED THAT MUCH
NOBODY ANSWERS WHEN I ASK AROUND
I MAY BE RIGHT BUT I MIGHT BE WRONG
IT’S JUST THE SAME OL’ SONG

THE WHISKEY AIN'T WORKING
WHAT YOU GONNA DO
DRIVE OUT TO THE DESERT
FOR A LITTLE DOSE OF TRUTH
YOU DON'T HAVE TO BOTHER
OR PRETEND TO EVEN CARE
THE WHISKEY AIN'T WORKIN'
THERE'S NOTHING REALLY THERE

NO ONE WAS WRONG NO ONE WAS RIGHT
THEN WHY AM I STILL THINKING
'BOUT YOU EVERY NIGHT

RAIN AGAIN

Here comes the rain again
Just like an old lost friend
Like breathing oxygen
Here comes another storm
This time it’s gonna pour
I guess that’s just the score
Why can’t the rain just wash away my pain

It’s really comin’ down
I wonder if I’ll drown
Don’t even make a sound
Those clouds keep a-rollin’ in
They’re building up again
Lightenin’ and thunderin’
Why can’t the rain just wash away my pain

Well I’m rollin’ down my window
Gonna put my hand outside
That summer breeze is blowin’
And there’s nowhere left to hide
I might as well just open up my arms
Let it bury me alive
One thing I can count on is
Here comes the rain again

Here comes another day
There’s nothing left to say
Why don’t we walk away
There’s nothing left unsaid
So why get out of bed
It’s all inside my head
Why can’t the rain just wash away my pain

You might think that I’m okay if you
Sat down and talked to me all day long
I would never admit that there’s only
One thing that is keeping me strong
I wonder what else I can do
I know that I will make it through
I hope that don’t go insane while I’m
Standin’ in the rain

Here comes the rain again
Just like an old lost friend
Lightenin’ and thunderin’ yeah

MURDERER OF LOVE

THIS IS NOT THE WAY
I WANTED IT TO BE
NEVER HOW I PICTURED IT
IN MY WILDEST DREAMS
MY HEART IS GROWING SILENT
BUT I REALLY WANT TO SCREAM

I AM A MURDERER OF LOVE
I AM A MURDERER OF LOVE
I AM A MURDERER OF LOVE
I GUESS IT’S TRUE • THAT’S WHAT I DO

I WONDER HOW
IT ENDED UP THIS WAY
I WAKE UP IN THE MORNING AND IT
BOTHERS ME ALL DAY
I WANT TO MAKE IT BETTER
BUT THERE’S NOTHING I CAN SAY

I AM A MURDERER OF LOVE
I AM A MURDERER OF LOVE
I AM A MURDERER OF LOVE
I GUESS IT’S TRUE • THAT’S WHAT I DO

SO STOP ME ‘FORE I LOVE AGAIN
THERE’S NOTHING LEFT TO GAIN
I DON’T THINK I CAN HANDLE
ALL THE SORRY AND THE PAIN
I KNOW IT WILL GET BETTER
BUT I FEEL LIKE I’VE BEEN DRAINED

I AM A MURDERER OF LOVE
I AM A MURDERER OF LOVE
I AM A MURDERER OF LOVE
I GUESS IT’S TRUE • THAT’S WHAT I DO

I WISH THAT I
COULD SOMEHOW MAKE IT RIGHT
THE DAMAGE HAS BEEN DONE
AND NO FORGIVENESS IS IN SIGHT
THE ONE I LOVE WITH ALL MY HEART
CANNOT SEE THE LIGHT

I AM A MURDERER OF LOVE
I AM A MURDERER OF LOVE
I AM A MURDERER OF LOVE
I GUESS IT’S TRUE • THAT’S WHAT I DO

SO STOP ME ‘FORE I LOVE AGAIN
THERE’S NOTHING LEFT TO GAIN
I DON’T THINK I CAN HANDLE
ALL THE SORRY AND THE PAIN
I KNOW IT WILL GET BETTER
BUT I FEEL LIKE I’VE BEEN DRAINED

I AM A MURDERER OF LOVE
I AM A MURDERER OF LOVE
I AM A MURDERER OF LOVE
I GUESS IT’S TRUE

ONE NIGHT

THERE WAS ONE NIGHT
WHEN YOU AND I
WERE MEANT TO BE
THERE WAS ONE NIGHT

AND EVERYTHING
YOU SAID WAS RIGHT
AND YOU WERE MINE
THERE WAS ONE NIGHT

WE DID NOT KNOW
EACH OTHER WELL
BEFORE THAT NIGHT
AND THEN I FELL
I FELL FOR YOU
AND YOU FOR ME
BUT IT WAS JUST
NOT MEANT TO BE

THERE WAS ONE NIGHT
PERFECT AND TRUE
THERE WAS ONE NIGHT
WHEN I LOVED YOU

I WENT FROM NOWHERE
TO HEAD OVER HEELS
I NEVER LEARN FROM THE PAST
YOU SAID I LOVE YOU
I COULDN’T BREATHE
BUT YOU KNOW YOU FALL TOO FAST

THERE WAS ONE NIGHT
WHEN YOU AND I
WERE MEANT TO BE
THERE WAS ONE NIGHT

THERE WAS ONE NIGHT
PERFECT AND TRUE
THERE WAS ONE NIGHT
WHEN I LOVED YOU

BONUS SONG: SOMETHING IN THE WAY

I fell in love with you this morning
I watched you walk away last night
You walked out of the bar
And strolled down to your car
And baby I could see the light

There’s something in the way that you know me
Even though we’d never met before
And if I had to guess
I know that you’d say yes
And you’d be mine forever more

Something in the way that you love me
Something in the way that you call my name
Nothing I can say
I really can’t explain
It’s just something in the way

I know my heart knows what it’s after
But my mind is working overtime
Is everything OK?
It’s been a long, long day
But then you seem to read my mind

 So now and then I start to wonder
Is all of this for real and true
You put my mind at ease
You say the perfect things
You always know just what to do

Something in the way that you love me
Something in the way that you call my name
Nothing I can say
I really can’t explain
It’s just something in the way

And when my head hits the pillow
On the bed next to you
I have to believe that the dream’s come true
There’s no place I’d rather be

Something in the way that you love me
Something in the way that you call my name
Nothing I can say
I really can’t explain
It’s just something in the way
Nothing I can say
I really can’t explain
It’s just something in the way
