VERSE I
To many years have gone by standing still with stage fright
Seasons change, and so do people so you better go and figure this out
CHORUS
On the path of goin nowhere fast, that’s what they say to me
On the path, of goin nowhere fast and moving forward I guess we’ll see
VERSE II
another day gone by like the way time seems to fly
and just so you know your not alone, in this life or for tonight Chorus
VERSE III
you better make up your mind of what to do in this life
you better make up your mind of what to do in this life, (cause your)

A Little Faith
04:37
|
|||
VERSE I
sometimes we know and sometimes we don't
but we always wish that we did
and that's when we pray and we ask
to be given the answer
CHORUS
And sometimes in life we have to realize
That there are things we’ll never know
We have to have a little faith
And that’s just the way it is
VERSE II
And sometimes we pretend That we know everything
We speak without thinking And say some stupid things
And that’s when we lose things worth keeping
We mess up our lives And there’s no one to blame
CHORUS
VERSE III
that's when we look at our lives
and we ask ourselves are we wise
and that's when we know that the answer is no
the same as always and always will be
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Have a little faith-----------------

Cause It's Her
03:28
|

Verse I
Don’t forget we’ll fight this, these feelings will pass
It’s hard now but we move on, eyes open and best foot forward
Scattered and broken, we put the pieces back together
Pre-Chorus
Cause Her grace, is surrounding me
And her love, is all I’ll ever need
It’s enough, to fill me up
Chorus
You see it’s hard but we do it, cause she’s worth it
Yes it’s hard but we do it, cause it’s her
Oh it’s hard but we do it, cause she’s worth it
It’s hard but we do it, cause it’s her
Verse II
A little bit of effort, is what you have to give
You can’t just walk right through, without knowing where you’re going
You’ll trip hard and fall fast, on the slippery slope.

Idly By
03:50
|
|||
Verse I
cut off from the outside, on the inside
in our perfect little world, we reside
looking to the outside, we see the pain
and the suffering, the world's insane
Chorus
As we stand, idly by
watching from the outside
confused, and wondering why
what to do we cannot decide
Verse II
We see the pictures, on our tv's
starving little children with disease
millions of people, displaced from their homes
wars about who knows what, and who knows why
Bridge
Some people choose to do something
Some people are better than me

Happy Song

|

VERSE I
This is your happy song, I think ya oughta hear it once a day just to get along
this is your rainy day, there's been a whole lot more of them since ya moved away
this is your time of night, ya think it's getting better but it really just turns the knife
this is your one thing, your one thing
CHORUS
This is my happy song, and I'm not to dang sad just to sing along
this is my loneliness, as I’m vyin for attention man why can't I just admit
that I am not afraid to say ya I have been movin on and it hurts like everyday
this is my happy song, and I'm not to dang proud just to sing along, sing along...
VERSE II
This is you fallin down, pickin up the pieces as your lying flat on the ground
ya gotta hear your stupid song, it makes ya feel better but it's really just nothin at all
this is me leaving you, I'm to far away and I won't put up with this
so play your happy song, and cries your eyes out but don't expect me to sing along

Unrockstar
03:50
|
|||
VERSE I
most rockers sing about women and cars
havin lotsa money and hangin out in bars
drinkin lotsa whiskey and gettin really tipsy
being the leader of the party comittee
CHORUS
I wanna be an unrockstar
an audience of one on my guitar
No love of money riches or fame
life lived without any shame
playing for the music and not for the glory
I want that to be my story
cause I wanna be an unrockstar
an unrockstar
VERSE II
Doin lotsa drungs n gettem for free
they think it's heaven but I disagree
those ain't things that I strive for
in my life I want so much more
VERSE III
bein a rockstar ain't my bit
I want a regular life I must admit
there's only one woman in my life
and that woman she is my wife

Words That Comfort
03:35
|
|||
Verse I
Looking for answers starting to see
i'll find them in my memory's
used to hold on to all the words
you'd say to me
CHORUS
where are those words that comfort
when you say goodbye say goodbye say goodbye
all those times you try to hide because
you can't deny can't deny can't deny
Verse II
wouldn't question what you did
or remark on how you'd live
now i knew that as we got
older you'd move along
Verse III
hoped that i would know
what it was that u knew
saw it through your eyes
it was just in time
BRIDGE
falling down around you, u find it hard
reach out to find a grip but it slips (away)

Why
03:20
|
|||
VERSE I
You came off so well at first, anyone would have thought you well
The signs were written on the wall, but all were lookin at the floor
The little things that you said, and the little things that you did
Then the big things came and blew right up, and now you've left me wonderin
CHORUS
Why Must you insist
Why Do you lie
Why Must you manipulate
Why Must you lie
VERSE II
Now we're left to heal on our own. You left before we worked it out.
The only one who could help us, we feel like we have betrayed.
But now we shall move on, let nothing get in our way.
We are done with you. Now we're left wondering why.
VERSE III
Now we have to clean the mess that you were too scared to fix yourself.
You lied and dropped us on the floor. You turned and ran away.
You asked us to believe in you. You promised that you'd try.
How can we ever listen to you again? All I wonder is
BRIDGE
I'll pray for understanding and I'll pray for you.
Doubt it will do any good. I'll always be left wondering.

As Friends Come

VERSE I
way back in the third grade you were the first friend that I had
at my new place you stuck up for me
while I stood up for you you were a good friend in a time of need CHORUS
CHORUS
As friends come and friends go but as friends come ya know your better than most
why you had to go and end it all
well that doesn't make sense it'll never make sense
no that doesn't make sense it'll never make sense to me
VERSE II
We shared our first drink and you fixed my first car
we played ball and puck and ya never let me give up
then you were my best friend my very best friend CHORUS

You had your whole life but you couldn't see
you had barely lived why couldn't you see CHORUS
VERSE III
Now we tell your stories about the times we miss so much
the stories you should be tellin instead your just a memory
a great memory but still a memory indeed CHORUS
