Rear view mirror
well i felt the need to throw off your
chains
one more heart doing time and
another in pain
i was tired of living my life this way and
you were so sure I was gonna stay

you're already in my rear view mirror
I'm just beginning to see things clear
well i was beaten and dragged through
the mud, now I'm the one you'll be
thinking of

well you showed no emotion you had
to look cool
too many years i was the one playing
the fool
and i tried to give you a chance to
explain you just laughed and blew your
smoke in my face

its all about you its all for you
the whole world should drop
the whole world should stop
if you wanted it to
It dont matter
well we tried so hard to keep it
together
but i guess it wasn't meant to be
you had your issues and i had mine
but can't let go of whats inside me
once a fire burned in our soul
we felt it when we locked in a kiss
we were lost in each others gaze
and then we fell apart like this
i only wanted to hold you
your heart would beat with mine
but lately we've been killing each
other
feels like a part of me has died

it dont matter it dont matter i keep
telling myself it dont matter that
theres somebody else it dont matter
and its time to move on it dont
matter i have accepted your gone it
dont matter

now i still think about those crazy
days
how we laughed so hard we would
cry
so it hit me when you turned and
walked away and your love for me
now you deny
you wanted me to be your
everything once you wouldn't let go
then you cut me and it started to
sting another heart to overthrow
it dont matter
Looking for me
rain falls upon my windshield
this empty day fits the way i feel
she never found any hero in me
guess its not so easy to be
rain began to pour as thunder sounds
yeah outside you cant see my tears
falling down
part of me wishes i could let you go
this once open door is starting to close

someday you will think of me
somewhere you will think of me
someway you will think of me
somehow i will find my reason to be
if the answers are looking for me

i'm tired and i dont want to feel this way
i'm burned out and broken i've got
nothing to say
dont want to stay in this dark place
again maybe i should call a real good
friend

someday,somewhere,someway
somehow
State line
another night goes by and i've got
nothing much to say
i'm sitting next to an angry guy with
that dead look in his eyes
looking into my stale coffee i think man
i've had enough i dont want to spend
my life on the road anymore
another rest stop and i go breezing by
man my family is all alone back home
the other night my wife and i had a
fight and i never got a chance to
apologize

crossing another state line miles and
miles from my home wishing i could
hold you in my arms right now wishing
there was some other way

well i've got to make a living and its too
late to become somebody else i've got
bills no honest man can pay and this
tired road is dark and lonely without
you

crossing another...praying that i hold
you once again
Need you
well now i see thing a little clear than
before we should hold to what we
believe and nothing more
its not easy to stand up and fight to be
heard but its even harder to hide and
never say a word
well i have turned away when i should
have stayed worked too hard when i
should have played and gave away too
much of me became someone i did not
want to be

so can we live for tonight pretend
everything's all right
forget the pain that brings us down
baby i love you and need you

everyone has dreams and i hate to
see them die but the world grows cold
and pressure makes us fight
we have ripped away so much of me
and so much of you and we know thats
not what two lovers in love would do

so can we.....
so can we try to live the dream
then life wont be as hard as it seems
i hope angels give us peace
baby i love you and need you
My little girl
when they first handed you to me i fell
in love so instantly and i thought how
could there be fighting and wars? tears
fell as i thanked the lord above tears
fell as i kissed your little face and for
the first time i truly knew what love was
for the first time i fell in love

my little girl please stay my little girl
my little girl i will always love you

and i prayed for the strength to be the
greatest dad you could ever have oh
little girl how you changed my world i
would do anything for you i would even
die for you if i had to you are the
greatest gift i could have asked for

my little girl........

and when your days get too rainy i will
pray for you the sun will shine
and i wish my mom could have met you
but life doesn't always go the way we
want it to

my little girl please stay my little girl
my little girl i will always love you
Beautiful light
everyday that goes by you amaze me
my love grows deeper in an endless
sea you are my son a strong and
beautiful child and may the angels
always watch over you

beautiful light beautiful light
like the many stars at night you are my
beautiful light

i have a picture of my dad holding you
he was so proud i had a son that he left
just after you turned one
one day you'll know the love i feel for
you one day i'll wish that i were young
again one day you'll take a picture of
me with your child and one day i will
have to leave you too

beautiful light beautiful light
like the many stars at night you are my
beautiful light
Thoughts in august
the wind is blowing the tall sweet grass
it almost sounds like a conversation
the sky is blue and the clouds are
dancing
maybe its something in the air maybe its
because of you
my girl is leaping each footprint in the
sand my boy cant walk yet but he is
laughing its days like these i thank the
lord above its days like these pray would
never end

when i hold your hand try to understand
i'm not perfect and love takes love and
love takes time

in this crazy world there is still so much to
believe in
in this crazy world there still is so much to
hold on to when i'm far away and all
alone i wonder what i'm missing back at
home

when i hold your hand try to understand
i'm not perfect and love takes love and
love takes time

feel the rays from the warm sun
its a beautiful day and good to be alive

when i hold your hand try to
understand...................................
Leaving soon
we ran on the beach we kicked up
the sand we felt the warm sun as we
took in the air
and we didn't know what it was to feel
young we only knew that life was a
dream we felt so safe with mom and
dad near we felt so alive and laughed
all day they protected us from all that
was bad god we never thought this
would end

and now he is leaving soon
mom left a long time ago
maybe he will find her when he
passes on
maybe one day we will find them
again

now we have kids of our own how we
love them and how we love to watch
them play and grow i wish to hide
them from all that is bad and i pray
they always stay safe
there still is so much to say and so
little time but there is peace in him so
there is peace in me
maybe its better this way you know i
cant speak without falling apart

and now he is leaving soon
mom left a long time ago
maybe he will find her when he
passes on
maybe one day we will find them
again
maybe we will get the answers we
need maybe one day we could laugh
again
Finish line
seems like these twenty years just
flew right by
seems like the clock wasn't on my
side
there was a way to watch the
setting sun now you can only find
me on the run

is there anyone who can slow
down time for a little while life has
become a runaway train and now
i'm out of style
is there anyone who can slow
down time for a little while
everybody racing for the finish line
but nobody has a smile

everything is now nobody wants to
wait all of us pile too much on the
plate oh i remember a time when
we walked free but yesterday was
gone at the count of three

is there anyone who can slow
down time for a little while life has
become a runaway train and now
i'm out of style
is there anyone who can slow
down time for a little while
everybody racing for the finish line
but nobody has a smile

Old stories by the seaside (savin rock)
i come back to the ocean to let things go or is it
something more? the past always has a way of
washing up on shore
the sun was burning bright as we ran through the sand
mom and dad were swinging me as they  each held a
hand i could still hear the merry go round i recall
being so young circus lights and summer nights one
for all and all for one
we were certain this place was held as a magical place
it was great growing up here but now the beach had
changed

these are the same old stories about the seaside and
i have heard them all before these are the same old
stories about the seaside and someday you'll have
your own that you will live for

so many lovers have come and so many lovers faded
away secrets were told as friendships and promises
were made the boardwalk always seemed to have a
life of its own
now its a bit torn down but this lonely beach i still call
home
so many fights over who would win the girl too much
drink and smoke and scotty began to hurl the police
came and there was nowhere to run they got us on
the pier because they had the guns

these are the same old stories about the seaside and
i have heard them all before these are the same old
stories about the seaside and someday you'll have
your own that you will live for

i used to hear of how different it was
the roller coaster the fun house man there was a buzz
people came from the surrounding states
it was the disney of the fifties before it got too late
the local cops could not stop the gangs and
bloodshed too much crime and they knew soon
someone would wind up dead so in the early sixties
they began to tare the seaside carnival down
i was young but i remember some of the rides being
brought to the ground

these are the same old stories about the seaside and
i have heard them all before these are the same old
stories about the seaside and someday you'll have
your own that you will live for
welcome to the show
some never think about it
some live their lives back there
some always dwell upon it
and some will say they dont care
some do all they can to hide
some are cowards for their cause
some always get a free ride
when they did nothing at all

welcome to the show
did you really want to know?
all the worlds a stage
yes your part of the show

some deserve a better place
and some never had to work for it
they are the ones who laugh in your
face
they live their lives in fear
they pretend to know it all
and some believe they really do
some will say you think too much
some lie and cant get enough

welcome to the show
did you really want to know?
all the worlds a stage
yes your part of the show
yes we are all part of the show!!!!!!!!!
