1.Where Were You
Softly i hear you call
And surely you're after it all
You tell me you know just who i am
That's a felony
Cause no one can
I can only look back when i stand all on my own
I know a friend
And i'll tell you when i see one
I'm reaching back again
Can i make it if i run
Where were you when i was naked in the cold
Where were you when my thoughts were growing old
Where were you
The train has left the station
With no chartered destination
If you don't have a ticket in your hand
It's too late to ride
Cause i've already closed the ticket stand
Where were you when i was naked in the cold
Where were you when my thoughts were growing old
Where were you
Softly i hear you call
And surely you're after it all
You tell me you know just who i am
That's a felony
Cause no one can
And theres something that i really want to know
Its building up inside
Where did you go
Where were you when i was naked in the cold
Where were you when my thoughts were growing old
Where were you
2.Walk On Water
Here i am as i have been so many times before
Looking back across the water
To my house upon the shore
Turning 'round and 'round again
To face the open air
Bewildered by the here
And the what is over there
Kicking up the surface
Then giving back again
How far out can i reach
Without failing in
'cause i can't walk on water
Standing on my pier upon the ocean
Captured by the notions of possibility
Manufacturing reality
Alone as i seem i am among you
If i call out will you walk on water
Will you walk on water
I guess i'll never find the puff-the-magic-dragon side
Unless i ride my ship of dreams across the swirling tide
I stare into the chaos that's ahead of me
Frustrated with the path that i have chose to see
Like an arrow shot
My dreaming eye is caught
By the distant shores returning
To just an inch behind
'cause i can walk on water
Standing on my pier upon the ocean
Captured by the notions of possibility
Manufacturing reality
Alone as i seem i am among you
If i call out will you walk on water
Will you walk on water
Just a little ways out
Just a little ways in
If i was making a bridge this is where i would begin
But i wouldn't have stopped here
If i call out will you walk on water
Will you walk on water
Leaps of faith must suffer the weight of hopes
But then the undertow pulls strongest
To the ones that we have been
Will you walk on water
3.Entertainer
So you come outside
To finally take a look
Up in the sky
Where the angels dream at night
I said hey that's my star your dreaming upon
Girl get your own star before i wish you gone
And she said little boy what you gonna do with your life
Are you gonna be a doctor
What your daddy would like
And i said that's pretty far
Way down the road
I'm only seven with a second grade load
How was your date last night
Oh and what was his name
Did you have a good time
Or was it one to shame
His name was adam
The date went great
Are you psyched for the fall
Your going on grade 8
And she said little boy what you gonna do with your life
Are you gonna be a doctor
What your daddy would like
And i said don't jump the gun
I've got plenty of time
But yeah i'd like to have a business
That i could call mine
So you got your masters in psychology
That sounds really cool
Can you got me one for free
I'll be interning for a year or two
Hows college life been treating you
And she said little boy what you gonna do with your life
You gonna be a doctor
What your daddy would like
And i said i found my happiness
Hope dad approves
I'm an entertainer my sound will make you move
4.Watching The Rain
Here i am against my will
Watching the rain
I cannot stand to be alone
Watching the rain
Time stands still
Watching the rain
I slowly start to drift away
Watching the rain
It's not so bad after all
Stuck amidst this waterfall
My mind is running free
There's no one here with me
Watching the rain
Here i am watching the rain
I kind of like to be alone
Watching the rain
Time stands still
Watching the rain
But i don't mind it anymore
Watching the rain
Its not so bad after all
Stuck amidst this waterfall
My mind is running free
There's no one here with me
I walk out into the rain
Cause i am not afraid anymore
I never thought something so mundane
Could open me up more
It's not so bad after all
Stuck amidst this waterfall
My mind is running free
There's no one here with me
Now i think i see a different side of me
I'm glad i got the chance in watch the rain
5.Think Of Me
Just the other day
When i left to go away
Come back another day
Something wasn't right
I could feel it in my eyes
I always hate goodbyes
Answering all those whys
With its gonna be all right
Think of me and i'll be there
I'm wherever you want me to be
I want to be close to you
And whatever that takes i'm willing to do
Just the other day
When i left to go away
Come back another day
I hadn't thought things through
Take a look at me
Tell me what you see
But someone longing to be
Right here next to you
Think of me and i'll be there
I'm wherever you want me to be
I want to be close to you
And whatever that takes i'm willing to do
And though sometimes i can't explain
The crazy things i do
Rest assured your faith in me
I'll be right here for you
Think of me and i'll be there
I'm wherever you want me to be
I want to be close to you
And whatever that takes i'm willing to do
6.Say What
Why do i feel like i've been through this before
And why do i feel like i'm gonna fail again
Is it that i regret not taking advice
Or is it that i know that i'm not right
Say what you want
I don't know
Say what you need
I don't care
Say how do you feel
When you feel like you're all alone
I haven't fallen as hard as i thought i would
Maybe its not as bad as people say
I could have turned my back and gone away
But now i know that i am here to stay
Say what you want
I dont know
Say what you need
I don't care
Say how do you feel
When you feel like you're all alone
7.He Shines
He won't think twice about
The little things he can go without
His cares find higher ground
The lives of others around
His lease of time and space
Will not show on his face
With what i've got i'll make do
I'm only passing through
He shines on days when even the sun's not around
Stands on beliefs that are old tradition found
And he swears on it like he's been there
A warning from the past
And he'll share a tale and convince you
And pray that it will last
Talks about this future place
Says i'll need a lawyer to fight my case
He believes in the master plan
Says he's living in borrowed land
He shines on days when even the sun's not around
Stands on beliefs that are old tradition found
And he swears on it like he's been there
A warning from the past
And he'll share a tale and convince you
And pray that it will last
With every soul he saves his eyes fill with joy
Another human being the word did not destroy
He shines on days when even the sun's not around
Stands on beliefs that are old tradition found
And he swears on it like he's been there
A warning from the past
And he'll share a tale and convince you
And pray that it will last
He won't think twice about the little things he can go without
8.Peace Of Mind
I was driving in my car just the other day
Thinking about the times when i used to say
Life is just a game anyone can play
But somehow that thought has seemed to fade away
I'll close the door on what's behind
I don't know anymore if i can find peace of mind
Can i find some peace of mind
So very very hard to find
Being nineteen isn't what its supposed to be
Waiting for things to be brought to me
Why'd i have to grow up and see
That this world wasn't made for me
I'll close the door on what's behind
I don't know anymore if i can find peace of mind
Can i find some peace of mind
So very very hard to find
I don't need your help
I just need some time
I don't care for your thoughts
Just for mine
I'll close the door on what's behind
I don't know anymore if i can find peace of mind
Can i find some peace of mind
So very very hard to find
I find myself a slave to things i've said
Like in my life i will bring home lots of bread
I'm like a needle without a thread
Cannot understand why these lights are red
I'll close the door on what's behind
I don't know anymore if i can find peace of mind
Can i find some peace of mind
So very very hard to find
9.Find In You
You don't think the way i do
You've got your own point of view
We don't see eye to eye on many things
Even when we try
I find in you what i don't in me
A side of life i never see
So you be you and i'll be me
Its okay if we disagree
I'm learning more and more each day
I'm thinking about the things you say
Why you do the things you do
And why you are the you that's you
I find in you what i don't in me
A side of life i never see
So you be you and i'll be me
It's okay if we disagree
I've been listening to every word you say
Maybe someday i will feel your way
But not today
What i do is what i see
You said when you were just like me
You've grown lot and now you e wise
But i just don't see though your eyes
I find in you what i don't in me
A side of life i never see
So you be you and i'll be me
It's okay if we disagree
10.Hold On
Don't tell yourself you're all alone
Don't tell your friends you're on your own
Don't look around for other fish in the sea
Just hold on baby and wait for me
Hold on it won't be long till i come around again
Tell yourself about your love for me
Tell your friends how you know
That we can handle being away for a while
And that our love grows stronger with every mile
Hold on it won't be long 'til i come around again
If you think that i'm leaving without a tear in my eye
You're surely mistaken
I don't know how to cry
And when i'm back again
You will see that i'm for real
We will show all of your friends
It was never a big deal
Listen to me when i say
Hold on
It wont be long 'til i come around again
11.Without You
Your eyes look through me
Like you knew what i don't
Your smile's so soothing
When you know
That i won't turn away
Say good-bye on any future day
Lose myself make you cry
And run away and hide
You bring to me security i've never had before
I'm learning to sleep again
'cause i know that you are so sincere
Your lying here and never going away
I can say that today
I'm the happiest man alive
Without you in my life
I'd never be the same
Without you in my life
I'd never feel the same
Now that you're in my life
I'll never be the same
Now close your eyes
And listen to the music
And let it be understood
That this is how i feel
Without you in my life
I'd never be the same
Without you in my life
I'd never feel the same
Now that you're in my life
I'll never be the same
Oh i'm so satisfied
With all that you do
And the way you make me feel
Without you in my life
And the way you make me feel
12.Something Else
You say it's not a how
But rather it's a why
If you think you've got the answers
Then get up and try
If my belief comes with an empty hand
Don't call me a sinner
Even though i am
Don't waste your time
My mind is set
Don't hit me up tomorrow
Cause i won't forget
Let's talk of the things
That we concur on
And move along to something else
I'm sitting in the corner
Got my face against the wall
I can't be sold on what i'm told
I'm too scared to fall
Don't disregard me if i don't buy your brand of bread
I cant help it if i don't find strength in what you've said
Don't waste your time
My mind is set
Don't hit me up tomorrow
Cause i won't forget
Let's talk of the things that we concur on
And move along to something else
Hear the preach and praise the speech
Well that's all nice and fine
Understand me when i say
That i'm satisfied with mine
I know you want to help me
But i'll be fine on my own
Now i'm going out to dinner
If i have to all alone
Don't waste your time
My mind is set
Don't hit me up tomorrow
Cause i won't forget
Let's talk of the things that we concur on
And move along to something else
13.Fuzzy-headed Morning
I am lying down with my feet crossed in bed
It's a fuzzy-headed morning
I don't know i'm not dead
I don't know what time it is
But it's later than before
There's a schoolroom clock on the wall
But it doesn't work no more
I know it's sometime in the morning
Between six and probably one
Cause there's light outside my window
But there isn't any sun
I feel pretty rested
But without the time i'm not for sure
I don't know if i should start my day
Or go to sleep some more
Here it is another day
And i've yet to touch the ground
I'm not afraid to leave the bed
I'd just rather lay around
There's a tv that i could watch
Sits adjacent to the bed
One of those japanese numbers
That does everything they said
I could look at some friends
In pictures taped over the desk
There's an ansel adams to the left
It's quite picturesque
Here it is another day
And i've yet to touch the ground
I'm not afraid to leave the bed
I'd just rather lay around
I like to pretend sometimes
I do it quite a lot
I think of the things i have
That i really haven't got
This bed that i lie on really isn't mine at all
In fact neither is the t.v. clock or pictures on the wall
Here it is another day
And i've yet to touch the ground
I'm not afraid to leave the bed
I'd just rather lay around
Here it is another day
And i've yet to touch the ground
I'm not afraid to leave the bed
I'd just rather lay around
