When I got poison oak at Danny’s place You should have seen the look upon your face That itch I couldn’t scratch made me so mad You said, “before it gets better it’s gonna get bad” Oh, ain’t that just the way it goes? The way back home always seems so much longer And oh, everybody knows We break our bones but they grow back stronger Greyhound to the city’s runnin slow I hate to leave you here my dear but I’ve got to go Know I’d never give your love away When I’m coming home, I’m coming home to stay When we said goodbye in the kitchen I thought that I would die but I just didn’t My broken heart grew legs and started runnin I opened up the blinds and let the sun in I opened up the blinds and let the sun in Let’s open up the blinds and let the sun in Oh, ain’t that just the way it goes? The way back home always seems so much longer And oh, everybody knows We break our bones, but they grow back stronger

Take me down to the river babe and push me in Oh won't you love me madly whether I sink or swim I knew your love would save me from the first time I saw your face And when you behave like a devil in the night I put you into your place Take me down down down down down down Take me down to the river babe and push me in Oh won't you love me madly whether I sink or swim And if you want to leave me there to drown in the depths of your love I'd never regret it I'd just thank my stars above Take me down down down down down Take me down to the river babe and push me in Oh won't you love me madly whether I sink or swim I guess its time I tell you what Im keeping to myself Come sit close to me Ill share the secret to my spell

Everyones talking puts a fog around my head Im trying to clear it up now I heard it somewhere running blind can leave you dead I could use some help now Its a shame that I hesitate to change Oh the ways that I live Helps me see myself plain When the water runs accrsoss my skin Oh Virginia Rain down on me Wash away the mud so I can see A little more clearly Oh Virginia Rain on me Your holy water oh it makes a holy wine Truth’ll trickle on down Open up let it seep into your mind I dont hold my breath cause it makes me want to drown

Wasting time in New Orleans Every day was like a dream We could travel the world a few times That'd be fine with me Cause when you're around All I see Is nothing but Blue Skies Nothing but Blue Skies Nothing but Blue Skies When you're with me The Falling Water It danced beneath the sky Just like the red wing black bird Singing out it's song from on high It had the tune I had the words Nothing but Blue Skies Nothing but Blue Skies Nothing but Blue Skies When you're with me From dawn until dusk on the very first day I knew I knew I knew Id stay with you Under the Blue Skies Nothing but Blue Skies Nothing but Blue Skies When you're with me

Follow that boy down to the river Voice like that, boy you make girl shiver You’re like a wolf in old sheep’s clothes I’ll show you mine if you show me yours Got your man down on his knees Beggin please, baby please Good luck getting me out of your head I can tell you right now you won’t ever regret it Gonna drown you ‘fore you find you’re in too deep I’m no good you see You’re gonna wish you never met me Follow that boy down to the sea He got a girl looks just like me Better start prayin you're gonna be saved Follow that boy down to his grave Got the world down on its knees Beggin please, baby please Good luck getting me out of your head I can tell you right now you won’t ever regret it Gonna drown you ‘fore you find you’re in too deep

Call me crazy but i just won't lie Id rather run through the coals then sit by the fire In every place of peace and quiet I've found I hear the call of the night she howls, she howls Awooo Awooo You and me and the moon make three I'll take you down like a storm on the sea Im a full blown natural disaster only happy when Im caught in the wind blowing faster Wind and the rain whipping my face And there's no place for the calm in me I have grown to love this thrill The thought of the fall it gives me a chill Train of thought running off the rails The devil's breath put the wind in my sails

Parked my car on the side of the highway Watching the automobiles go by Never felt this much pleasure from wasting time Sky was gold just how you like it Road map told you where the treasure was hiding But you threw it away, you lost it Tore up pieces fell out of your pocket Now you're lost, don't know where to go But maybe you'll find me there waiting round the next bend in the road Ill be your soldier and you be my Buffalo Rose It was just before the summer I danced for you in the square We swam naked in the quarr felt the cool wind in our hair Not word was spoke between us cause we said it in our stare I'm the lover to your fighter the roller to your stone Ill be your soldier and you be m Buffalo Rose There are man paths to wander A hundred roads to roam Oh a thousand lights to follow only one leads me back home Its the glow of burning fire from the embers in our soul But light falls through your fingers Roads they wear you down Oh do we both love each other just enough to stick around Its hard to stand beside you when my feet dont touch the ground But I know when were together aint a house that makes a home Ill be your soldier and you be my Buffalo Rose Life’s an open canvass Loves a leap of faith Oh my world was black and white before I looked upon your face Now im sworn to run forever to whatever you may chase I hear the constant ringing Coins echo in the well Oh the pyramids are calling us to seek and find ourselves They alone shall know our stories and theyre sworn to never tell But i hope that youll remember as you chase those sacred stones Ill be your soldier and you be my Buffalo Rose

Well if I knew a gypsy I’d have my fortune told She’d say boy tied to another Are the strings of your soul Oh my love it stings Sharp and sweet and laced with honey World out there is cold They’ll steal your clothes and take your money I’m no saint I’m no Better than the rest Want to steal you for myself Hold you closely to my chest When the winds bear us apart When the timing is unkind Know that I’ll be chasing down your heart Till the neverend of time And when you’re feeling lonesome Standing on a ledge Caught up in a whirlwind Caught up in your head Listen for my voice It’s carried on the breeze Neath the wings of birds In the song of bees Find my face engraved In every mountainside Take me with you through the darkest nights Forever keep the thought of me One that’s gentle on your mind I know it’s hard to look ahead Hard to leave the past behind Oh its hard to leave it behind

Gets me feeling mighty strange Trying to read my mind Had to hide myself away Venture deep inside Solitary did I wander through the web I walked alone Free to discover, to craft the path that shapes my soul As I ventured closer To the center of my core I began to understand My journey’s reward It was through the darkest corners I found my way to light A complicated torture to know your every side Oooo Here I lie uncovered Cut my heart open on the ground To invite another To step inside what I have found To step inside what I have found We were born in summer Before we walked we learned to run Now we’ve got each other Lay our blankets in the sun Lay our blankets in the sun

When I’m free, I won’t be scared When I’m free, I won’t be scared There’ll be birds, and trees, and air And we’ll hold hands most everywhere There’ll be no fear there When we’re free We’re all born and we all die We can all love if we try Don’t know much bout in between But people who don’t think like me They’re gonna die too So are you (Oooooh) x2 It don’t matter where you’re from Who you are or who you love In the end it’s all the same The sun goes down, we change our names It seems insane Maybe But time goes on and still we sing That same old song, ‘let freedom ring’ It’s almost like we still believe That someday we might all be free I guess We’ll see (Oooooh) x2 We get hungry, they just ate We got love and they got hate We got flowers and they got guns We’ll keep em pointed to the sun See which one grows Who knows?
