Found myself dreamin' Silver and gold Like a scene from a movie That every broken-hearted knows We were walkin' on moonlight And you pull me close Split second and you disappear And I was all alone I woke up in tears with you by my side Breath of relief, and I realise, no When I promised tomorrow So I'm gonna love you Like I'm gonna lose you I'm gonna hold you Like I'm saying goodbye Wherever we're standing I won't take you for granted 'Cause we'll never know when When we'll run out of time So I'm gonna love you In the blink of an eye Just a whisper smoke You could lose everything The truth is you never know So I'll kiss you longer, baby Any chance I'll get I'll make the most of the minutes In love with no regrets Let's take our time to say what we want Use what we got before it's all gone, no When I promised tomorrow So I'm gonna love you Like I'm gonna lose you I'm gonna hold you Like I'm saying goodbye Wherever we're standin' I won't take you for granted 'Cause we'll never know when When we'll run out of time So I'm gonna love you Like I'm gonna lose you I'm gonna hold you Like I'm saying goodbye

When I heard the news My heart fell on the floor I was on a plane on my way to Baltimore In these troubled times, hard enough as it is My soul has known a better life than this I wondered how so many Could be in so much pain While others don't seem to feel a thing And then I curse my whiteness and I get so damned depressed In a world of suffering, why should I be so blessed? I heard about a woman Who lives in Colorado She built a monument of song behind a garage door Where everyday she prays for all whom are born And all whose souls have passed on Sometimes my trouble gets so thick I can't see how I'm going to get through it But then I would rather be stuck up in a tree Than be tied to it Dee da doo da doo I know There is so much more I don't feel comfortable with the way my clothes fit I can't get used to my body's limits I got some fancy shoes to try and kick away these blues They cost a lot of money but they aren't worth a thing I want to free my feet from the broken glass and concrete I need to get out of this city Lay upon the ground, stare a hole in your sky Wondering where I go when I die When I die

I don't have an answer, babe I never understood Another day of dreadful news People ain't no good Even if I'd tell you to be strong Many other times I have been wrong It would be a lie to lead you on You don't know but I've been here before Picking every lock on every door Looking for the lighthouse on the shore A night like tonight When you're scared cause I'm leaving Life is unfair and the world is uneven Even I get scared sometimes I'm on my knees But the sky will open up while you're asleep Anyone can change the world I don't know if that's true Look at me I've tried so hard There's only so much you can do You don't know but I've been here before Picking every lock on every door Looking for the lighthouse on the shore A night like tonight When you're scared cause I'm leaving Life is unfair and the world is uneven Even I get scared sometimes I'm on my knees But the sky will open up while you're asleep While you're asleep While you're asleep A night like tonight When you're scared cause I'm leaving Life is unfair and the world is uneven Even I get scared sometimes I'm on my knees But the sky will open up while you're asleep If you get scared sometimes Life is unfair sometimes If you get scared sometimes Life is unfair sometimes If you get scared sometimes Life is unfair sometimes If you get scared sometimes Life is unfair sometimes If you get scared sometimes Life is unfair sometimes... While you're asleep

There ain't no reason things are this way It's how they always been and they intend to stay I can't explain why we live this way We do it every day Preachers on the podium speaking of saints Prophets on the sidewalk begging for change Old ladies laughing from the fire escape Cursing my name I gotta a basket full of lemons and they all taste the same A window and a pigeon with a broken wing You can spend your whole life working for something Just to have it taken away People walk around pushing back their debts Wearing paychecks like necklaces and bracelets Talking about nothing, not thinking about death Every little heartbeat, every little breath People walk a tightrope on a razor's edge Carrying their hurt and hatred and weapons It could be a bomb, or a bullet, or a pen Or a thought, or a word, or a sentence There ain't no reason things are this way It's how they always been and they intend to stay I don't know why I say the things I say But I say them anyway But love will come set me free Love will come set me free, I do believe Love will come set me free, I know it will Love will come set me free, yes Prison walls still standing tall Some things never change at all Keep on building prisons, gonna fill them all Keep on building bombs, gonna drop them all Working your fingers bare to the bone Breaking your back, make you sell your soul Like a lung, it's filled with coal Suffocating slow The wind blows wild and I may move But politicians lie and I am not fooled You don't need no reason or a three piece suit To argue the truth The air on my skin and the world under my toes Slavery stitched into the fabric of my clothes Chaos and commotion wherever I go Love I try to follow Love will come set me free Love will come set me free, I do believe Love will come set me free, I know it will Love will come set me free, yes There ain't no reason things are this way It's how they always been and they intend to stay I can't explain why we live this way We do it every day
