Saw an old friend yesterday
Guess we both had too much to say
Seems we’ve taken different sides
All caught up in politics and pride

If we can get beyond the blame
I know we would see we are still the same
The distance between us will fade
There will be no distance between us someday

In that distant land across the sea
There are people just like you and me
They just want to see their children grow
And feel the same love we all know
When we get beyond all the hurt and blame
And realize we are all the same
The distance between us will fade
There’ll be no distance between us someday

We can rise up
Join each other
We can build a bridge
Brother to brother
Take the steps
We need to take
To get us to a better place

Where the distance between us will fade
There will be no distance between us one of these days
One of these days

We can rise up
Join each other
We can build a bridge
Brother to brother
Take the steps
We need to take
To get us to a better place
Where the distance between us fades away
There will be no distance between us one of these days

One of these days

We can rise up
Join each other
We can build a bridge
Brother to brother
No distance
Between us
One of these days

When there's sadness in your eyes,
I see it,
You can't hide what's weighing on your mind.
When there's trouble in your life,
I feel it,
What's wrong with you is wrong with me,
What's Right is Right.

When there's joy inside your heart,
I'll share it.
When you gotta dream I say, reach for the sky,
And if you ever thought I'll catch you,
What's wrong with you is wrong with me,
What's Right is Right.

(chorus)
I don't wanna go,
A single night without you,
I don't wanna know,
What an empty bed is like.
When you laugh I'm laughing,
When you cry I'm crying.
What's wrong with you is wrong with me,
What's Right is Right.

This I promise you forever,
With you all the way to the finish line,
And we're gonna cross that bridge together,
Marching step by step, walking side by side.

I don't wanna go,
A single night without you,
I don't wanna know,
What an empty bed is like.
When you laugh I'm laughing,
When you cry I'm crying.
What's wrong with you is wrong with me,
What's Right is Right.

-sax solo-

(ChorusX2)

What's wrong with you is wrong with me,
What's right is...Ooooh, What's wrong with you is wrong with me yeah,
What's Right is Right.

Nineteen
The number on his back wore the captain of the high school football team

Took us all the way to state
Got a scholarship to play down in Tennessee

He could catch he could throw he could run he could go like you’ve never seen

Nineteen
But on the day those twin towers came down his whole world turned around
He told them all I can’t play ball there’s a war on now
He marched right in with a few good men and joined the marines

At nineteen

(chorus)
He’s a boy next door
He might of carried your bags at the grocery store
Now he’s somebody’s son in a hole with a gun in a foreign land
Trying to hold on to his American dream

At nineteen

There’s a sniper out there in the dark somewhere and a soldier is down
Need someone who can duck and run and get him out somehow
What one good man will raise his hand and take one for the team
How bout you nineteen?

(chorus)
He’s a boy next door
He might of carried your bags at the grocery store
Now he’s somebody’s son in a hole with a gun in a foreign land
Trying to hold on to his American dream

Nineteen
Nineteen

Brought him home today with a big parade down on main street
Gotta Purple Heart and a Silver Star solder gave a speech
Said he could catch he could throw he could run he’s the one that rescued me

…could have played for Tennessee
He was nineteen
He was only nineteen

I look around this room
And feel the pool of tender years
Before we knew enough
To be afraid of all our fears

Baby there was no corner
We couldn’t fight our way out of
And every thought of leaving
Left us leaning on this love
We had it all you know
Before you started letting go

If you can walk away tonight
Give it up for good
Throw it all away like we swore we never wood
If you can tear down everything we built
Deny everything we felt
I guess there’s a lot I misunderstood

If you can leave here tonight
Baby maybe you should

Baby I just keep on seeing
All that moonlight shining down
The way our love could light up
This little Alabama town

So I keep holding on to hope
Still finding reasons to believe
Cause all I ever got from you
Was always just enough for me
But if it’s not for you
Do what you gotta do

If you can walk away tonight
Give it up for good
Throw it all away like we swore we never wood
If you can tear down everything we built
Deny everything we felt
I guess there is a lot I misunderstood

If you can leave here tonight
Baby maybe you should

If you can leave here tonight
Baby maybe you should

I live on a battlefield
Surrounded by the ruins of the love we built
And then destroyed between us
The smoke has cleared
As I stumble through the rubble
I’m a dazed seeing double
And I’m a truly mystified

My new home
Has a shallow feel
With tears and muddy waters
And bits of broken heart
All around
There is desolation
Scenes of a devastation
Of love been torn apart
I live on a battlefield
I live on a battlefield

I live on a battlefield
The one wear not one single drop of blood has spilled
Is no less a horrifying
Sweet memories memories
Of a bygone situation
And now shattered lord and battered
Lives scattered around

My new home
Has a shallow feel
With tears and muddy waters
And bits of broken heart
All around
There is desolation
Scenes of devastation
Of love been torn apart

I live on a battlefield

My new home
Is a shallow feel
With tears and muddy waters
And bits of broken heart
All around
There is desolation
Scenes of devastation
Of love been torn apart

I live on a battlefield
I live on a battlefield
I live on a battlefield
I live on a battlefield
I live on a battlefield
I live on a battlefield
I live on a battlefield
I live on a battlefield
I live on a battlefield
I live on a battlefield
I live on a battlefield
I live on a battlefield
I live on a battlefield
I live on a battlefield
I live on a battlefield
I live on a battlefield

Ohhhh, I was lying in the bed with fever
And I was, burning up inside
My baby walked, in my bedroom
And I could hardly open my eyes

She said that she was going to the pawnshop
Just across the track
She started packing some clothes in a hurry
And then she said she would be right back

But I ain't seen hide `nor hair of my baby, since that day, yeah
Well I ain't seen hide `nor hair of my baby, since she went away
I remember so well when she slammed the door
But the girl didn't make it back no more
I ain't seen hide `nor hair of my baby, since that day

Well, I waited for 24 hours, and I was just about to starve to death
It didn't look like she was comin' back, so I had to look out for myself
Well I called, the police department, to find out what they knew
They said, "No, by heck, but we will get her yet", because they was lookin' for her too

Well I ain't seen hide `nor hair of my baby, since that day, yeah
Well I ain't seen hide `nor hair of my baby, since she went away
Well I don't know what happened a-cross the track
But I know my baby didn't make it back
I ain't seen hide `nor hair of my baby, since that day

(instrumental break)

Well I called, my Dr. Foster, and when the girl answered the phone
I got a funny feeling, the way she said Dr. Foster had gone
She said, "He left with a lady patient, about 24 hours ago"
I added two and two, and here's what I got: I got I'll never see that girl no more

Well I ain't seen hide `nor hair of my baby, since that day, yeah
But I ain't seen hide `nor hair of my baby, since she went away
If Dr. Foster has got her, then I know I'm through
Because he's got medicine and, money too
I ain't seen hide `nor hair of my baby, since that day

Whoaah, no
