We Are America (feat. Johnny and Heidi) - CreatiVets

They say mother earth is breathing With each wave that finds the shore Her soul rises in the evening For to open twilight's door Her eyes are the stars in heaven Watching o'er us all the while And her heart it is in Ireland Deep within the Emerald Isle We are forty against hundreds In someone else's bloody war We know not why we're fighting Or what we're dying for They will storm us in the morning When the sunlight turns to sky Death is waiting for its dance now Fate has sentenced us to die Ireland I am coming home I can see your rolling fields of green And fences made of stone I am reaching out won't you take my hand I'm coming home Ireland Oh the captain he lay bleeding I can hear him calling me These men are yours now for the leading Show them to their destiny As I look up all around me I see the ragged tired and torn I tell them to make ready 'Cause we're not waiting for the morn Ireland I am coming home I can see your rolling fields of green And fences made of stone I am reaching out won't you take my hand I'm coming home Ireland Now the fog is deep and heavy As we forge the dark and fear We can hear their horses breathing As in silence we draw near There are no words to be spoken Just a look to say good-bye I draw a breath and night is broken As I scream our battle cry Ireland I am coming home I can see your rolling fields of green And fences made of stone I am reaching out won't you take my hand I'm coming home Ireland We were forty against hundreds

I was eight and he was late in life But still as sharp as that old Case knife That lives inside the pocket of his working shirt They never made a car he couldn't fix They never spent long up on bricks Always charged a little less than he was worth Ain't too many like him on this earth People say I'm like my dad Hey, I can't argue with that After all we're both cut from that same Carhartt canvas cloth So if we look you in the eye and shake your hand too tight Well, the truth is we're both trying to be Like the man who raised the man who raised me He took and taught me how to cast a line And the way to say grace at suppertime And how to handle and respect a loaded gun Heard the war made Grandpa tough Guess the grandkids softened him up 'Cause he never really was that hard on us Nothing like my aunts and uncles claim he was People say I'm like my dad Hey, I can't argue with that After all we're both cut from that same Carhartt canvas cloth So if we look you in the eye and shake your hand too tight Well, the truth is we're both trying to be Like the man who raised the man who raised me How to keep and treat a woman And cherish fifty years of moments People say I'm like my dad Hey, I can't argue with that After all we're both cut from that same Carhartt canvas cloth And when that sad day rolls around and he's lowered in the ground I hope they all can look at me and see The man who raised the man who raised me He raised me

The day that I came into the world You finally got your baby girl With me in your arms, right next to your heart Beatin' like a drum You started to shake, but it was okay Cause God knows I was In good hands Safe every day right there in the care of a good man Lookin' back now it's easy to see that You're the reason I am and have always been in Good hands They held me to help when I was hurt And held mine to climb the steps to church You couldn't make the smallest mistake Not in my eyes I understand how lucky I am To walk through this life In good hands Safe every day right there in the care of a good man Lookin' back now it's easy to see that You're the reason I am, and have always been in Good hands This is the day you give me away But we'll be alright Cause daddy I know you're letting me go Knowin' that I'm In good hands Safe every day right there in the care of a good man Lookin' back now it's easy to see that You're the reason I am, and have always been in Good hands I thank God for good hands I thank God for good hands

I don't need to be somebody, to be somebody I don't need a spotlight on me to change anything Anytime you want me, call me, middle of the night you got me I don't need to be somebody, to be somebody you need I don't know about you but sometimes I feel like I'm Drowning in the noise Hard to know what to do when you're stuck in a bad dream screaming You can't find your voice Who am I to go and try to fix the broken hearted All I know to do is show the lonely where I started You don't need to be somebody, to be somebody I don't need a spotlight on me to change anything Anytime you want me, call me, middle of the night you got me I don't need to be somebody, to be somebody you need Ordinary light can find the way to shine and chase away the dark If you got a minute to slow down, hand you can hold out You can be the spark, no matter who you are You don't need to be somebody, to be somebody I don't need a spotlight on me to change anything Anytime you want me, call me, middle of the night you got me I don't need to be somebody, to be somebody you need Who am I to go and try to fix the broken hearted All I know to do is show the lonely where I started You don't need to be somebody, to be somebody I don't need a spotlight on me to change anything Anytime you want me, call me, middle of the night you got me I don't need to be somebody, to be somebody you need I don't need to be somebody, to be somebody you need

If my first love hadn't broke my heart If I'd never lost that job Or picked up a guitar And if I hadn't made that friend If I didn't get to play That dive bar that weekend I'd still be in my hometown If I was never let down I never would have moved to The city where I saw you Strumming on a bar stool Singing something old school Knew it when I heard it All of it was worth it Cause if I hadn't gone through Everything I went through I never would have met you I never would have met you If an ex just would've loved me right If I hadn't got that gig To sing to you that night Back then girl if I had Everything I wanted I never would have moved to The city where I saw you Strumming on a bar stool Singing something old school Knew it when I heard it All of it was worth it Cause if I hadn't gone through Everything I went through I never would have met you I never would have met you Can't be mad at the past I had One little change, good or bad I never would have moved to The city where I saw you I never would have moved to The city where I saw you Strumming on a bar stool Singing something old school Knew it when I heard it All of it was worth it Cause if I hadn't gone through Everything I went through I never would have met you I never would have met you

Yeah, I know "when you know, you know" is cliche But they ain't just empty words old people say I feel you settled in my bones I wasn't made to ever let you go If it were up to me, I'd be it for you We wouldn't be questioning anything baby we'd fall into A love like we've never known Forever never alone Still you and me when that sweet heavenly symphony calls us home If it were up to me What we've found, is something only fools would waste That's why it's your hand I'm holding You're perfection, darling, so If it were up to me, I'd be it for you We wouldn't be questioning anything baby we'd fall into A love like we've never known Forever never alone Still you and me when that sweet heavenly symphony calls us home If it were up to me If it were up to me A love like we've never known Forever never alone Still you and me when that sweet heavenly symphony calls us home If it were up to me If it were up to me

I love to wrap these arms of mine around you If I ain't kissing you, then I'm about to I wouldn't make it very long without you The reason you're around, as simple as it sounds I don't know any better I don't know any better Oh I don't know any better Feeling than loving you When the chips are down, you always pull me through it When the shots are fired, I know you'll take the bullet And I wonder sometimes why you choose to do it Well that's easy enough, I do it all because I don't know any better I don't know any better Oh I don't know any better Feeling than loving you Baby I swear we'll always be together And I ain't going anywhere I'll be your fool forever, cause I don't know any better I don't know any better Oh I don't know any better Feeling than loving you I don't know any better Feeling than loving you

(Takumii on the beat and she feelin' on me yeah yeah) (Oh) I tried so hard for you I'm tired of fallin' over you All of the things I'd do for you It was never enough for you We keep on breakin' up And makin' up You stayin' up And makin' love You wakin' up Next to someone that's not me You must be kiddin' me You're killin' me When you're with him You think of me Now I can see You're no longer yourself You said it's over But now here we are again We're missing closure Now you broke my heart again Lost my composure And I'm fuckin' up again Leave me alone girl I cannot fall in love again Here we go again Close my eyes until the end Thought you're more than just a friend Know you love me don't pretend She just another pretty face up in my phone She just another number blowin' up my iPhone She just another memory filled with lies though (Yeah yeah) You said it's over But now here we are again We're missing closure Now you broke my heart again Lost my composure And I'm fuckin' up again Leave me alone girl I cannot fall in love again You said it was over But here we are again Here we are again Tryna make it never end Know you love me don't pretend Don't say this is the end I just wanna try again But here we are again You said it's over But now here we are again We're missing closure Now you broke my heart again Lost my composure And I'm fuckin' up again Leave me alone girl I cannot fall in love again (No here we are again) (She just another number blowin' up my iPhone) (Ah)
