Clear As The Driven Snow
Patrick simmons
Playin easy somewhere, shade across my mind
Thoughts that pass I cannot catch, I reach for you and find
That I have learned how not to get burned now
Wind in the tree blows, even the sea knows
That I have learned how, think I can see now
Lookin through dreams is not what it seems
They handed me the bottle and said drink it til its gone
But now that its half empty Im not sure I can go on
Thought I had learned how not to get burned now
Wind in the tree blows, even the sea knows
That I have learned how, think I can see now
Lookin through dreams...
I keep rollin, I keep rollin
I keep rollin and I cant stop
Rollin and I cant stop
Its drivin me out of my mind
To the truck stop, to the plane hop
To the boat dock and Im so close
Boat dock and Im so close

Angels Of Madness
Guy Allison, Michael Hossack, John McFee
EarthWalk Music (ASCAP) / Moon On The Lake Music (ASCAP) / Long Tooth Music (BMI)
There are no questions left to ask,
Through your eyes I can see, our future now lies in the past.
It can't be measured in simple time
Each stolen moment shared, a theft divine.
And I
Drift through the shadows of a memory,
Silently echoing the words I'll never hear again.
While the
Angels of madness hold you in their arms
Seductive lies disguised as truth.
As you fade in their dark caress
Still I reach through empty nights for you.
Love is no sin
Your night will end.
Reflections they won't let you see,
They weave a tapestry
from broken threads of shattered dreams.
You hold a mirror to yourself

On Every Corner
Keith Knudsen, Zeke Zirngiebel
Hollamule Music (ASCAP) / ZCreatures Music (BMI)
Brother, you've fallen far behind.
What is it that's on your mind?
Sister, oh how do you decide?
What do you see through your clouded eyes?
On every corner I turn to,
Some variation of "help me please,"
Can't pretend I don't see you there.
How should I feel?
Brother, you've fallen to your knees.
What do your children need?
The distance is never out of reach,
There's only inches between you and me.
On every corner I turn to,
Some variation of "help me please,"
Can't pretend I don't see you there.
How should I feel?
Hey, mister, well I'm lookin' your way, you know
I wouldn't ask if things weren't like they were today.

One Step Closer
Keith knudsen/john mcfee/carlene carter
Baby, theres a chance you ought to take
Chance of a mistake you gotta make
Maybe Im mistaken too
To take my chance with you
I need you like a shadow needs a light
Ill follow you like morning follows night
When nothins left ahead of you
Ill be right behind you
Shadows disappear at night
We both know its a shame if you should lose one
Why is it so hard to find
Tell me that youre right there too
One step baby
Two steps maybe
One step closer
Ill be next to you
Baby, its a secret I cant keep
Trouble comes and suddenly youre weak
I dont believe you got the strength

Higher Ground
Bill Champlin, Tamara Champlin, Tom Johnston
Night Warm Music (ASCAP) / Tabby Chabby Music (ASCAP) / Windecor Music (BMI)
Mornin' finds me at the table
Sifting through your memories.
I'd change your mind but I'm not able
'Cause you were gone long before I could set you free.
No more hearin' bad notes playin'
Songs I don't believe any more.
Cold wind blows and the rivers rise.
Let the muddy waters slide.
I think it's time to head for higher ground,
Somethin' better in the sky.
Time to spread my wings and fly.
Heaven help me up to higher ground.
Midnight sends its shiny darkness
Throws a shadow on my dreams.
I don't have time - time for broken hearted
'Cause I'm all paid up on the tears you left for me.
No more cryin', no more buyin'
Into lies I don't believe - what you say.

People Gotta Love Again
Tom Johnston
Windecor Music (BMI)
Wake up everybody
Take a good look around
There's far too many reasons
For all the troubles goin' down.
Jesus is watchin',
And the devil is alive.
Buddha is cryin',
And Allah is mystified.
Brothers killin' brothers,
And our children in the streets.
We gotta change the times
We gotta change the times.
The world is watchin', look at the shape we're in.
There ain't no doubt about it, people gotta love again.
Down on every corner
We got children sellin' dope.
Who's gonna send a message
And try to give 'em hope.

Down In The Track
Tom johnston
I been workin the whole day long
On these railroad ties singin a sad, sad song
Down the track is a bad way to live
The boss mans whip is all hes got to give
And late at night in the twilight of the south
They put you in a cell and let the bulldogs out
The old cat down the way
Well hes singin out the blues
cause hes got no one back home
Oh, somebody sighed
Next day comes they send you back out on the track
All that sweat be drippin down off your back
Everybodys singin a workin mans song
Hopin they dont have to feel the whip on their bone
The water boy slowly works his way around
A bucket full of swamp water weighin him down
Old squezer walker just fell out on the ground
And theyre draggin his body away
Oh, my, my, my

Song To See You Through
Tom johnston
Sometimes I cant see past a day
I know Im growin tired and I feel it, yeah
And the song that I sing when the notes begin to ring
Its hard for my head to get into the melody, yeah
Day to day, I tell you
Day by day
I see faces all around me
When they start to smile
I just stop for a while
And I say baby let me love you
A small town store with an old wooden floor
The old man inside sellin dry goods
Has a smile on his face
Dont you know thats hard to replace
I bet hes gonna live to be a hundred, yeah
Day to day, I tell you
Day by day
I see faces all around me
When they start to smile

Drift Away
Day after day I'm more confused
When I look for the light in the pouring rain
I know that's a game that I hate to lose
And I'm feeling the strength
Ain't it a shame
(Chorus)
Give me the Beat Boys to free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock 'n roll and drift away
Oh..Give me the Beat Boys to free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock 'n roll and drift away
Beginning to think that I'm wasting time
I don't understand the things I do
The world outside looks so un-kind
I'm countin' on you
To carry me through...OH...
Give me the Beat Boys to free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock 'n roll and drift away
Yeah!..Give me the Beat Boys to free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock 'n roll and drift away
When my mind is free
