Slowrain Album

Woke up cold in the middle of the day, looking for a friend on this great highway
I always think there is going to be, just a little more time
Here’s to all that wish us well, all the others can go to hell

All my friends were there, and we drank songs
Now I’ve gone lonely, with no one in sight
It’s all I’ve ever known
Well, good night my love

Sometimes the loneliness just gets to be a bit too much
North winds cut to the bone, don’t you leave me here all alone
Maybe somebody’s gonna miss me when I’m gone, long gone

All my friends were there, we drank songs
Now I’ve gone lonely, with no one in sight
It’s all I’ve ever known
Well, good night my love

Like clay dripping through my fingers, and an echo playing on my mind
Why can’t you hear me, why can’t you see me, maybe it’s the end of our fall behinds
Promises made in the sand, they were here and then they’re gone

All my friends were there, we drank songs
Now I’ve gone lonely, with no one in sight
It’s all I’ve ever known
Well, good night my love

All these changes take time
All these places trace time
Driven by the tide
This is our date to ride
Raised by the flood
Bonded by our rushing blood

All these changes take time
All these places trace time
Lifted up by wings
Listen to the highway sing
Carried by the wind
Never need to run again

C’mon down beside me
Show me where you’re spinning time
Don’t leave out a word
‘Cause I ain’t too tired

All these changes take time
All these places trace time
Washed by the rain
Steals away all our pain
Warmed by the sun
Don’t you know we had our fun

Dreaming of home again
With an angel at the door
This spring has been a gift
Until we meet again

Old sayings are mostly true
And not always wrong
Expectations let you down
Like water in your hands

I can feel your voice
I can hear your mind

Run to the other side
Where the midnight shadows grow
The plan laid out in dust
And the river valley knows

Lying still and present
Listening for a clue
Perfection is a bore
The moment’s always ours

I can feel your voice
I can hear your mind

I’m still driving through
Fence posts passing by
Tracking all that matters
Let others go their way

Peace will find you here
Not a word of wasted time
It’s great to know you’re near
And always a trusted friend

I can feel your voice
I can hear your mind

Love cannot be erased
Love heals all (All)

Love is not lonely at all
We are champions of love

Love is like a waterfall
That has escaped it bounds

Don’t wait to tell someone that you love them
Love, more than ever before

Love will not dishonor you
Love first, the rest will flow

Love is all that’s real
Choose love, over all

Baby, I’ve been counting on faith
The kind that comes on blind in the night

By now I know nothing more
What I can’t see is what I have
A lonely day brings on the pain
Only time and mercy remain

Baby, never mind the weather
Blowing hard through this room

They say you never see the wind
Pressing up against your skin
You know it now at every turn
It just keeps coming on strong

Over and over in my mind, babe
You may never know me by name
Forever the way of time, babe
The kind that won’t leave you alone
Trying to mind my own way, babe
But I just wanna be your man

Baby, I gave it my all
Now I know it’s not enough

I love you sure as the summer
In a dream from yesteryear
Yet there is nothing so real
Like dancing with you on the water

Yeah, I know, It’s like you told me
The day can come down hard around you

Oh, we must be crossing the road of desire
My hands are sweating real bad
As we cross I hear distant chattering voices
Dragging the day behind them

If I could, I swear I would
Reach high and shake the moon from the sky

A lot of people after doing that, would give you the moon
But I don’t think I’d do that though
I would instead give you the sky
So you can put there what you want

So there you are
With the stars in your hair
Your love makes time stand still

Pick me up and turn me around
Where they don’t bring you down
What’s lost is found

You know I’m just a singer
Listening to the keeper of the vine

This world’s bleeding loud and long
Come on over as fast as you can
I’m not easing up on this night
Where none of these words fall to the ground

I used to wake with the fire of the moon
With greatness found in every tune
Bent over and stubborn, they can’t hold me down
Just like a black-belt film star now

The edge of the horizon is worth the trip
I want to live to crack that whip
When there’s no one to talk to, as the lights go down
Nothing holds my orbit to this town

We’re easy to break, but hard to steal
Can’t look away from my sweet stare

I walked inside her and was alone
Three weeks gone and a habit grown
I slept through that afternoon
A dream and a beat went by too soon

Did you see the mountains come out from the clouds
You were there

Like the wind across a hill of the wild
I saw you there

To sit outside with you and listen to the drums
Will you be there with me

When America comes
