I want to live a simple life
get a job and pay my dues
Settle down with my pretty wife
Find a Love i’ll never lose
I want to sing a Simple Song
One that brings down all your blues
I want to make right what went wrong
Find a love i’ll never lose
I was lost in the middle of nowhere
I was tossed on the angry sea
I believe that out there somewhere
There’s a Love that will Set me Free
When they lay my body down
and my soul flies to the sky
Don’t wanna see you with a frown
Don’t wanna hear my children cry
I was lost in the middle of nowhere
I was tossed on the angry sea
I believe that out there somewhere
There’s a love that will Set me Free
When i go back to the ground
I’ll leave you something that you can use
It’s worth more than any crown
I’ll leave a Love you’ll never lose
I was lost in the middle of nowhere
I was tossed on the angry sea
I believe that out there somewhere
There’s a Love that will set me free

I’m on my way but i don’t know where
i don’t know where but i know i’m going
I’m on my way, i don’t know where
But i know where i come from
It’s getting dark, but i don’t care
I won’t carry no shame or sorrow
I’m looking sharp, i’ll show no fear
As i move towards tomorrow
Let the Wind Wash over me
Cast my worries out to sea
Let the Waves Crash through my heart
Watch my old ways fall apart
There’s a bright star smiling in the night
My guiding light she’s ever shining
So i know that my road is right
and I’ll be safe arriving
Let the Wind wash over me
Cast my worries out to Sea
let the waves crash through my heart
watch my old ways fall apart
Moving Fast, Moving Slow
I will find the Light and I will follow
I’m on my way but i don’t know where
I don’t know where but i know i’m going
I’m on my way, i don’t know where
but i know where i come from

Rise And Fall

i hear the wind arising
i feel it on my face
i look to the horizon wait for the storm to break
there’s a fire in the water
there’s a bloodstain on the sky
there’s a black cloud in my heart
every time we say goodbye
and we heave and haul
the big and small
and we give our all
to the Rise and Fall
Push Pull In Out Push Pull In Out
I will not shake or shiver
i will not be afraid
i know i will deliver
on the promise that i made
you know i’ll never leave you
you know i’m here to stay
i know how much i need you
every time i sail away every time i sail away
and we heave and haul
the big and small
and we give our all
to the Rise and Fall
i’ve been fighting all my life
i’ve been wrong and i’ve been right
i’ve had my back against the wall
waiting for the Rise and Fall
and we heave and haul
the big and small
and we give our all
to the Rise and Fall

A River runs Slow Deeply and Low
Steady but never Still
Like leaves in the wind
We shiver and spin Blown without a Will
This Life is an ocean of Love
Let every heart, Rise above
A man walks alone
A long way from home
Far from his family and friends
Like a blackbird he flies
Across darkening skies
Trying to get back to them
This Life is an ocean of Love
Let every heart Rise Above
On and On and On and On
We whistle at the sun
On and On and On We Run
A baby is born
Like a thunderstorm
A father's pride lights up the night
In the wink of an eye A lifetime goes by
One chance to get it right
This Life is an ocean of Love
Let every heart Rise Above
Let every heart Rise Above
