Somewhere it went south tonight Desire turned to change The same road that led you here Is leading you astray You've fallen off the face of the world You can't explain When your friends feel more like echoes You don't hear back from again Deep in the distance, I know you'll hear this Where are you gonna go When your wildfire heart burns out And no one cares anymore? Another face in the cards We call this time Getting lost in the fold I'll tell you something The others won't It took a thousand nights To get to hold The heroes breathe like villains If you can get close enough You buy the suit they're wearing And you become the one you've judged But deep in the distance, I know you hear this Where are you gonna go When your wildfire heart burns out And no one cares anymore? Another face in the cards We call this time Getting lost in the fold I'll tell you something The others won't It took a thousand nights To get to hold You're born afraid Of the hell you raised Can't realize you were loved You can't hear those words deserved You can't hear the song unsung But deep in the distance, I hope you hear this Where are you gonna go When your wildfire heart burns out And no one cares anymore? Another face in the cards We call this time Getting lost in the fold I'll tell you something The others won't It took a thousand nights To get to hold To get to hold...

One day down and life to go Looks like you and me, we've lost all control Major Tom is moving on And the space left in between us Is the place where we belong And who would've thought that we would go Falling off the face of the world while it moves on? No one says 'you told me so' What if everything we live for comes down to skin and bone? What if it's good and lasting? Good and lasting What if it's good and lasting? Good and lasting What if fear is just a ghost? It's more scared of us than the closet we keep closed If every day could never end Do we live for happiness? Feel the one last kiss What if it's good and lasting? Good and lasting What if it's good and lasting? Good and lasting What if it's good and lasting? Good and lasting What if it's good and lasting? Good and lasting

Something's on my mind Telling me it's time To let go of holding on We tried everything For the life of me I can't just go along Is it any wonder why we're going under? We should've seen it coming our way It's like I finally woke up to nothing left to hold up Knowing it'd be harder to stay Makes it easy going Easy going Makes it easy going, ooh-ooh When you can't undo Things you can't get through I need a lucky thread No more days to waste So that we can say More livin', less regret Is it any wonder why we're going under? We should've seen it coming our way It's like I finally woke up to nothing left to hold up Knowing it'd be harder to stay Makes it easy going Easy going Makes it easy going, ooh-ooh Only so much you take, then you break And it's easy going When it isn't worth the fight, goodbye And it's easy going (easy going) Only so much you take, then you break And it's easy going (easy going, makes it easy going) When it isn't worth the fight, goodbye And it's easy going (makes it easy going, easy going) (Makes it easy going, oh)

He was not my father's brother but he wished that he could be Told us kids to call him Uncle and we would be his family He had a wife and kids in Fresno, the youngest one was twenty-four Daddy brought him into our house, they didn't want him anymore He helped us work the family business building fences in the sun He worked just like a man of twenty until the working day was done He and Dad would spend their Evenings sittin' in lawn chairs in the yard Where they'd drink and toast to Seagram's, Seagram's never went down hard Won't you wake up, Uncle Lloyd We've got a lot of work today We'll get Don to make the coffee Load that truck and be on our way Friday night you can drive to Vegas Maybe this time you will win Buy a trailer by the river And you won't have to work again He was sleeping in the workroom on a mattress on the floor When one night I heard him crying as I passed outside his door He cried, "Rita, girl, I love you! Rita, darling, please don't go "I've tried hard to make you happy; I've done everything I know" Then I heard the bottle open, the tipping up and putting down And the rustling of the covers, then he did not make a sound I thought of thirty years of Rita standing sternly by his side All the years of hanging in there and all the emptiness inside Then I thought of how their children have children of their own And how a man at fifty-seven winds up living so alone Won't you wake up, Uncle Lloyd We've got a lot of work today We'll get Don to make the coffee Load that truck and be on our way Friday night you can drive to Vegas Maybe this time you will win Buy a trailer by the river And you won't have to work again (Oh, you'll never work again)

There's a southern accent Where I come from The young'uns call it country And the yankees call it dumb I got my own way of talking But everything gets done With a southern accent Where I come from Now that drunk tank in Atlanta Was just a motel room to me I think I might go work Orlando If the orange groves don't freeze I got my own way of working But everything is run With a southern accent Where I come from For just a minute there, I was dreaming For just a minute it was all so real For just a minute she was standing there with me There's a dream that I keep having Where my mama comes to me And kneels down by the window And says a prayer for me I got my own way of praying But every prayer's begun With a southern accent Where I come from I got my own way of talking But everything gets done With a southern accent Where I come from

You got a lot on your plate and it's too much to handle One thing or another both ends of the candle With a wife and three kids and one on the way Lately it seems there's just ain't enough time in the day It'll drive you insane if your cup ain't half full You can't complain and you can't grab the horns by the bull Life moves too fast to beg, steal or borrow But if you cut the grass, it'll be short tomorrow It's the last thing on your mind but it's the first thing I see Every time I drive by I wonder just how long it'll be I know you ain't got time to be working for nothing And you got mouths to feed But when you walk out in the morning Just look and you'll see what I mean It'll drive you insane if your cup ain't half full You can't complain and you can't grab the horns by the bull Life moves too fast to beg steal or borrow But if you cut the grass, it'll be short tomorrow I believe what you sow in the spring you will reap in the fall Bad luck on a string don't mean nothing at all What goes up don't always come right back down Sometimes people leave and never come back around One thing I know is hard work always shows And the one way to get there is to always be going If you ain't got friends you don't get Christmas cards And a good place to start's your front yard It'll drive you insane if your cup ain't half full You can't complain and you can't grab the horns by the bull Man, life moves too fast to beg steal or borrow But if you cut the grass, it'll be short tomorrow Yeah, whatever you do today is gonna be done tomorrow

I'm lookin' through a hole in the sky I'm seein' nowhere through the eyes of a lie I'm gettin' closer to the end of the line I'm livin' easy where the sun doesn't shine I'm livin' in a room without any view I'm livin' free 'cause the rent's never due The synonyms of all the things that I've said Are just the riddles that are built in my head Hole in the sky Take me to heaven Window in time Through it I fly I've seen the stars disappear in the sun The shooting's easy if you've got the right gun And even though I'm sittin' waitin' on Mars I don't believe there's any future in cause Hole in the sky Take me to heaven Window in time Through it I fly I've watched the dogs of war enjoyin' their feast I've seen the western world go down in the east The food of love became the greed of our time But now I'm livin' on the profits of pride Hole in the sky Take me to heaven Window in time Through it I fly I'm lookin' through a hole in the sky I'm seein' nowhere through the eyes of a lie I'm gettin' closer to the end of the line I'm livin' easy where the sun doesn't shine

He rode in from the west with an eye for a dollar to make He pitched us a sell about healing and oil from a snake The barkeep he warned him but the man did not comprehend How strangers round here disappear like straw in the wind Too young but in love when she met him in some northern town He treated her good until the sun and the whiskey went down Did the bruise on her face test the patience of all of her kin Or do strangers round here disappear like straw in the wind Oh Tim runs his mouth when he drinks since his wife passed away But he's good to the kids and the crops that he sells are fair trade But a travelin' man had enough and took a pipe to his chin That travelin' man disappeared like straw in the wind Oh if the mouth of this river could talk here's what it would say If you come here with good in your heart you'll be on your way Oh but I'm not the one here who judged another man's sin Or made strangers round here disappear like straws in the wind Oh strangers round here disappear like straw in the wind
