Headed out into my desert
All alone and thirsty
For somethin' more
Than the whiskey that had become my water
Would you mind if I put this on your shoulder
I need somethin' more
Here I am
Standing inside your love
Like a child
Falling asleep at the wheel
Of my life
And letting you drive
I'm letting you drive
Headed out into my dark night
Like a soldier surrounded in the losin' fight
Probability of a victory's over
Would you mind if I put this on your shoulder
I need somethin' more
You're the only one
You're the only one
Who can save me
Here I am right where I belong
On the shoulder
Handin' off the keys
Close my eyes
And letting you drive
I'm letting you drive
. . .

Oh why
Don't it make you cry?
Something so clear as love
Could become so vague
And it don't matter what we do
And it don't matter what we say
Without surrender we will never find our way
Disengage and leave the ground
Setting my sights on the great beyond
Silence is the loudest sound
I can't believe it, it's so beautiful
I was lost but now I'm found
Setting my sights on the great beyond
Disengage and leave the ground
Oh why
Don't it make you cry?
Something so clear as joy
Could fade into grey
And it don't matter anymore
When what you wanna buy ain't in that store
Sometimes you gotta write your own songs
When you wanna sing, sing
There ain't no reason why
We can't fly
We can't fly
There ain't no gravity girl
In my mind
Not tonight
Not tonight
. . .

spend a little time standin' on the front lines
and you really can't talk at all
your mind begins to wonder
is there any love at all?
the photographs you took
yeah there was somethin' in their eyes
every saint used to be a sinner
every man used to be a child
you said it was all in inside my mind
you were wrong
there was grace
you saw the enemy
I saw your face
people like you and I
spinnin' through space
you were wrong
I still have faith
everytime I feel the sunshine
I thank the Lord up above
for seein' somethin' I
couldn't see at all
comin' down hard
the feelin's all gone
where are we gonna hide?
my wings are feelin' clipped now
and all I wanna do is fly
somethin's gotta give
get up stand up see through it
gotta get this message to you
you said life don't mean a thing
that there's no reason left to dream
. . .

All these things that I have done
The hours I have spent
Lookin' for something to run to
To cover my head
The rain came down in sheets of razors
Cuttin' my face and blockin' my way
It was impossible to see the angel
That was starin' at me
If you could stand tall with me
(What are we fightin' for?)
We have to believe
(It was setting us up for more)
So much more than we could know
Was waitin' just down the road
If you could stand tall with me
Someone said you were the one
Who comes to every man
When his back's against the wall
And his money's all been spent
And it's time to fan the flame
Or never to walk this way again
Will I be the one to rise above
Lord am I strong enough?
It doesn't matter what we say
It only matters what we do
Move fast this flesh and blood
See what's inside of you
I need to know
. . .

Oh what dream have we here
Such vivid colors in all the clothes that you wear
Your alone you are the secret makes the Mona Lisa smile
Your alone you are the sign of love is true
That it's really here
Now I drink you like water,
Drink you like freedom
Drink you like the nectar that falls from Eden
Drink like water
Drink you like the everlasting love
Oh it's borrowed time we're livin' on
But I don't care no more
I got you, I'm breaking off this weight
Your alone you are
The timeless light that illuminates my way
You alone you are
The sparkle in my eye everyone can see
It's a miracle that I found you here next to me
I hear you breathin', I feel your song
Over mountains so high and rivers so wide I tried to find you
. . .

Take me on up to Zion
Where I can lay my burden down
Everything's on fire
Ain't no peace in this crazy town
Take me on up to Zion
Where my Lord will comfort me
He will lay me down by still water
While my enemies run from me
They gonna run
Run from me
You will see
See them run
Far away
From me
Take me on up to Zion
Think I gotta psalm
Runnin' throught my head
Bring me over to King David
Gonna sing it now for all my friends
Take me on up to Zion
Where no harm shall come to me
No fire will light upon my cloak
And the sons of iniquity
They gonna run
Run from me
You will see
See them run
Far away
From me
Take me on up to Zion
Where I can lay my burdens down
Oh everything's on fire
Ain't no peace in this crazy town
Take me on up to Zion
To that secret place in my heart
Where even Satan don't dare to stand too long
When he sees that temple guard
He's gonna run
. . .

Sometimes I find myself
Beholdin' all the gifts
Some magnificent power gave me
In the form of my two kids
Can't dream of being good enough
To deserve even half of this
So let me thank you one more time
And seal it with a kiss
Seal it with a kiss
She sang
[Chorus:]
All I have given to you
I'd give again
All I have been to you
I would be again
You are my mountain, my high place to climb
Deep in your valleys are plenty of places to hide
There's plenty of ways to get lost
In your light
In your light
Always remember
When it crashed into me
Deown deep in a jungle of sorrows
Blind and cold not see
Like something grabbed my hand said child
If you wanna find some peace
Let me take you where the music and laughtet
Never ever cease
The ground beneath your feet
She sang
[Chorus]
Everytime I look to you
I remember who I am
All my fears they fade away
And I find that I'm lost again
In your light, to your sweet love
I run
[Chorus]
In your light, yeah
In your light, ooh
In your light, yeah
In your light
In your light, oh yeah
In your light
In your light
. . .

Thank God my heart still flies the flag of love
After all that we've been through
All the bread's still on the table
And I still wanna break it with you
Still wanna write those words that light your mind
And lead your heart to me
Up on the desert plain
Yeah we will climb
To a higher place
Leavin' our hopes and fears behind
If we should falter
And grow thirsty love
I'll head off in my faith
To bring the water and the wine
And just in time
Thank god my heart still flies the flag of love
May be tattered, may be torn
Like a wedding gown's much prettier
After it's been worn
Like a baby only sees the light
After he's been born
I'm gonna bring you water
I'm gonna bring you wine
I'm gonna bring you shelter from the storm
And just in time
. . .

Oh Great City of the Veil
Statues that hide the face
That never leaves a trace
For history wrong to tell
From the foundation I have run
And climbed the highest walls
Just to uncover that sweetest love
Of the one who lives inside me
Oh, Oh, Rome
This love will shine on
Oh, Rome
This love will shine on
Oh great woman of the veil
Temptations that hide the face
That never took the bait
That never ever fell
Never believed there were two
Where there's only ever been one
Shines as brightly in the night
As she does in the blazin' sun
Traffic jam!
I can't believe we got stuck here again
Outside St. John's
We gotta move on
To the temple not made with hands
Where you're never late
But just in time
For the real Love that lives inside
. . .

Even now
As the dawn it breaks
There's a silence
Like the world
Has got nothin' left to say
And my stained-glass heart
Lays shattered
On the floor
Of the Church of One
Yeah it's time, oh it's time
I waited for soul whispers
Tellin' me to be strong
How long did we sleep for?
We gotta get these children home
Yes the song of my soul is sweet
Like a blackbird 'gainst a night sky
Human eyes can't see
But to feel it is salvation
So wild and free
No destiny
No destiny
I waited for soul whispers
Tellin' me to be strong
How long did we sleep for?
We gotta get these children home
I waited for soul whispers
Comin' from on high I know
We will fly right over the temple
Spread your wings its time to go
Time to rise
Time to reach for that love
That was there in your infant eyes
Time to believe again
Time to reap again
Yeah it's time, oh it's time
I waited for soul whispers
Tellin' me to be strong
How long did we sleep for?
We gotta get these children home
I waited for soul whispers
Tellin' my heart to grow
We will fly right over the temple
Spread your wings its time to go
. . .

The fever's breaking on this girl
The sweat is running down her back
I taste the salt and dream of oceans
Tears of joy, so glad
We have not lost the will to move
To stand when we must stand
Just when we thought the light had gone
It shows itself again
And as we climb the heat it grows
The purest love you'll know
What dreams we had are fadin' to black
All I got from that city,
They're takin' it back
All I need, I believe
What I want, I can't see
The fire on the mountain
Is callin' me home
Where are you baby can you hear
Me calling out your name
Through the fog of spirit making clouds
And making dark the way
And as we climb the sound it grows
The angels trumpet blows
Callin' me home
Speaks to me in whispers
To my soul
Sayin' do not fear the ghosts that walk this road
No they can't do a thing to you
Turn your eyes to me
And feel right through
. . .
