Finding my way home

the road can be narrow

the road can be long

finding your way back 

is where you belong

cutting losses where I have been 

finding my way back

leaving behind eve's of destruction

on this road, so narrow, so long

living one day at a time

living like a ghost through

every nightmare's sunrise

'cause the road can be narrow

the road can be long, no matter what

finding your way back

is where you belong

When reality hits

when the door shuts, you know it's over

a calm is settling in after the storm

peace an' quiet fill my mind

a mind that was shattered in disbelief

of what happened

as loyalty has become something you have to buy

and now your last payment has been met, sometimes

a closed door, a closed mind, a closed life, brings peace 

in the valley of a weary mind

I found my peace, I found my freedom, I still hurt sometimes

but then again, I don't mind, not any more, I've reached

the end of the line, I'm feelin' fine

peace in the valley feels so just, feels so fine, feels so right

reality hit me , even more than that, I have survived

Love has come to call

when the night's still young and emotions run high

love comes to call, but love cannot be when we lay

in deceit in the arms of a new morning

so my sweet love, we have to realise, it was the wrong place

the wrong time, we crossed a line, how much the want, how

much the need, we cannot be

a train's leaving taking me away, I will think of you with no regret

each an' every day, yet our lives have to be lived in seperate ways

Where did it go wrong

he didn't know, but he had the feeling

he saw it come to light, when he saw

her words and read her lies

looking up to a pale blue sky, he knew

she thought he'd never know, it was time

to go, leaving an empty house

where love had gone blind, she thought

she could lie, out on the road, under a blue sky

he's wondering where did it go wrong, in this life

she made a choice, she thought she could lie

but choices, choices they come at a price

now he's wondering, was it all just a waste

of time

Gift of no return

so,...after walking through all the rain in your life

here's something I have to say, but most times you

do not listen

silence comes as a gift of no return, where words of love

never mentioned, are coming your way, speaking louder

than any silence ever could

'cause noise is a sound, always around always ppenetrating

your mind, with words  chasing approval for a lie and noise

will always fade and leave behind an empty soul no one can

find

Eyes of wisdom

she's older, but she sees 

with her eyes of wisdom

she sees me as the one

that will fufill her each 

and,...

every possible need, 

untill I'm gone

leaving her mind body and soul

her body I've never known

she knows I will remember 

and meet her desire again and again

after I've been gone everywhere 

and everywhere I wanted to go

I cannot forget her eyes mind

her body and soul, a body I need to know

'cause she sees me as the one

that will fulfill her each 

and,... 

every possible need she needs

she's older,...wiser

and she fulfills my each 

and every possible need

I need

untill I'm gone

Movin' in shadows

I move in shadows, no one sees me

I move through fire, no one sees me

I'm a father to the sun, sister to the moon

mother to the earth, you don't see me but

you need me

I am the father, a father you never met

I am the mother, a mother that never left

I'm your sun in the sky, darkness at night

your dawn breaking in the morning

you don't see me, but you need me

I move where angels are

I move, I move, I move in their shadows
