Are we going to form a team
I trust you and you trust me
Are you going to let me in
Can I tell you where I’ve been
Can it work when we’re apart
Can you trust me with your heart
Will you stand for me and fight
Let me help you through the night
And when I see a thing, hear a thing, think a thing, feel a thing
Bring it all back to you
And when you need a thing, need a friend I’ll be there in the end
Bring it all back, I’ll bring it all back to you
Even through our stormy days
Shield each other through the rain
With you when the sun comes through
Stand together me and you

Make My Children See

Don’t know why I’m uneasy tonight
Can’t be content as a man
Sometimes it’s late and the day’s slowing down
That I think about who I am
Been trying to be the man folk want me to be
Road that’s still hard wired into me
But I can see far too late, that our species sealed it’s fate
That I’ve got to make my children see
That I’ve got to make my children see
(Got to change the path)
That I’ve got to make my children see
(There are things we can’t own)
That I’ve got to make my children see
(Got to fight for the world)
That I’ve got to make my children see
And it’s taken such a loss of life for me to understand
The true value of the aspects of my life
That the riches aren’t the things that I am holding in my hands
For the world around that’s free that we should fight
Now I can see just what I need to be
Is there strength in my old bones yet?
Can the power in my head waken part of me that’s dead?
Or do I pour another drink and forget?

Fly

Fly over land and sea my little one
Glide over storms above the rain
Don’t let the wind divert you from your course
Please darling return to me again
Are you feeling lonely?
Are you feeling spent?
Is there pressure above you?
Do you need to vent?
Are you feeling closeness?
Are you feeling joy?
Are you feeling freedom?
Times to enjoy
Is there spirit around you?
Are you in your place?
Has contentment found you?
Written on your face
Do you feel belonging?
Values intact?
Accept as they find you
Love you for that
And my heart saying
And my heart saying
Come on home safe to me
Come on home safe to me
Come on home safe to me
Come on home safe to me
Do you feel disgusted?
Do feel outraged?
Can people be trusted?
Just wanna get paid
Have you found a voice yet?
Can you make yourself clear?
Will you help them listen?
Can you make them hear?

No Need For Words

There’s no need for words, cause we both know how we feel
I won’t let it hurt, but I still know that it’s real
I just want to be by your side, no matter what path you choose
There’s no need for words, cause you know that I love you
There’s a wildness in those eyes, that reflects the open sea
A softness in that smile, brings out the best in me
There’s a power deep down inside, when I don’t know which way to turn
A gentle lull strengthens my soul, cos there’s lessons I must learn
Cos there’s lessons I must learn
A direction I must go
To live in this crazy, crazy world
Cos there’s no need for words
And you teach me more than you know
By my side in this crazy, crazy world
Sometimes life hurts, and I see it in your eyes
it cuts at your heart, but I know you see right through the lies
If there’s anyone can make it it’s you, no matter what the form book says
You’ve got all you need i know that you’ll succeed
Cos I know you’ll find your way
Cos I know you’ll find your way
A direction you must go
To live in this crazy, crazy world
Cos there’s no need for words
And you teach me more than you know
By my side in this crazy, crazy world
