One Good Reason

NEVER SAW IT COMING
HAPPENED SO FAST
HIT ME LIKE A HEADSTONE
OVER BROKEN GLASS
WATER IS RISING
HARD TO BREATH
JUST ONE GOOD REASON
IS ALL I NEED
LOOK OUT THE WINDOW
I TOUCH THE PAIN
EVERY RAINDROP
CALLS OUT YOUR NAME
SEE THE CLOUDS ROLLING
ACROSS THE SKY
FEELS LIKE I’M BROKEN
BUT I DON’T KNOW WHY
YOU WERE SO HARD TO HOLD ONTO
WITH EVERY TEAR I CRY
I START TO REALIZE
I’LL NEVER GET OVER YOU
I REMEMBER EVERY MINUTE
I REMEMBER THE DAY
WHEN YOU HAD TO ADMIT IT
AND OUR WORLD BLEW AWAY
THAT SINKING FEELING
DOWN ON MY KNEES
A HEART REVEALING
A HOME IN NEED
STOP LOOKING OVER YOUR SHOULDER
FOR SOMEONE YOU WON’Y FIND
I GUESS WE GOTTA GET OVER OURSELVES
SOMETIMES
SO TELL ME A STORY
THROW ME A LINE
I’M TIRED OF KEEPING TRACK OF YOUR LIES
FEEL LIKE I’M FALLING
INTO BLACK
GIVE ME ONE GOOD REASON
AND I’LL COME BACK

Went for a walk in the world today
Looking for a song
To help me move along...
talk but nothing good to say
when all we see is wrong
Makes it hard to carry on...
So look up now, Don't Worry
Fear not the Night
Look up now , don't worry
You'll be alright ...
Went for a walk in the world today
Looking for higher ground
Coz I was feeling down ...
So I climbed a mountain all the way
and a good friend there I found
This is how that sounds...
OOO's
Went for a walk in the world today
looking for a reason why
now all I see is sky ...

A Melody lingers in my ear tonite
a lyric ringing loud and clear leads me to the light
it’s the sound of a young heart breaking
behind a mind that’s wound too tight
under skin so hot, it’s ready to ignite
I turn the radio on and i let the DJ drive
when you’re on the Road to Nowhere
it’s hard to stay between the lines
and i see my own Star falling
into the Tick and Tock of Time
looking for a friend i Left behind
and it Goes On and On and On...
but u won’t know what you’re missing til it’s gone
It goes On and On and On...
but there ain’t Nobody listening to
The Singer who Lost his Song
Found a Penny in my pocket
and it asked me for some change
The Sun came up this morning
so i Know it’s bound to Rain
there’s a broken record playing
and i’m haunted by the sound
it keeps my head spinning round and round
and it Goes On and On and On...
but u won’t know what you’re missing til it’s gone
It goes On and On and On...
but there ain’t Nobody listening to
The Singer who Lost his Song
A Melody lingers in my ear tonite
a lyric ringing Loud and Clear
Big and Strong and Bright
It’s the sound of an Old Heart healing
from a wound won in a fight
because i know this time
I’m gonna get it right
yes i know this time i’m gonna get it right
Because it Goes On and On and On...

I’m a Seafaring Man, I’m a rider on the storm
the son of my father on the water i was born
i work until dark and i rise at the dawn
hauling the lines as i sing my song
Out here in the weather i tend my nets
but a fisherman’s life has few regrets
In a hard days labour some hands get wet
but it all works out when i land my catch
You can sail across the water
you can span the grand prairie
looking for a free man
will you remember me remember me ?
A good woman waits for me back on the shore
while i chase the fish off the Labrador
she leaves a candle burning bright
to bring me home safe through the night
when the last trawl falls i’ll take my leave
the stars in the sky are all i need
just tow my boat to my family
they’ll keep on living from the sea
i’m free as a sail in the breeze
with the wind in the waves to watch over me
You can sail across the water
you can span the grand prairie
looking for a free man
will you remember me remember me ?
