Ghostlight
I Believe
Will we pull through?
Will we be winning?
When the call to glory starts playing
I say together we can move a mountain
Into the darkness and back again
I believe we should get together
I believe we can rise above
We cut out a future, cut off a past
Capture a moment, hope to make it last
If you should stumble, I won't let you fall
Wherever your going, wherever you are
I got a message I'm trying to get through
Something so simple, something so true
If we get together, we'll be rising
When the call to glory starts playing
Take My Hands
Last summer's sadness past
I'm alive at long last
I swagger, stammer, strut
Out into the night
With a clear dream
Take my hands I want you
You sit by your TV
I think it makes you blue
Don't sit with your sad song
Come on change the tune
If you're not tanking chances
Then you'll never know
Take my hands I want you
Don't be confused
Don't shut me out
I'll show you something new
Just listen to your heart girl
You'll hear mine there too
Take my hands I want you
Loves Uunderground
All night intensity
All night long
Lonely, so lonely
But never alone
Strange ends come together
Love's underground
Between the first kiss and the dear john
I held her hand
Between a clean sheet and a cold slap
I made a plan
In the half-light
I wished out loud
Diving deep in love's underground
It was hard before
Now it's harder still
There is a stranger
Just a little bit kills
She might approach you
Do you one down
But I make out okay
In love's underground
Slow Fuse
This is my lonely room
With peeling paper on the walls
Hot summer night of dreams
TV shows till dawn
Wound up so tight
Stayed up all night for a change
Like last night and the one before
Remembering your name
Like a phantom by the back door
Wound up so tight
Like a restless boy on a slow fuse
Cool early morning rain
Rattled bones and all
I dream on after dawn
But keep a watchful eye
Wound up so tight
Like a restless boy on a slow fuse
I burn in the evening when the day is through
Love Comes Slowly
I've been out looking for so long
Been out of my mind for so long
I've been out in strange places
Taking the heat
Love comes slowly
Love echoes still
Now the time is right
After so much darkness
I'm beginning to see the light
Picking up pieces
Threads of the mystery
Love comes slowly
Love echoes still
A river flows
Love washes over me
Deep and slow
I go down
I search for the real thing
I look into your eyes
Players are pretenders
This is to survive
A tender touch can change so much
Love comes slowly
Love echoes still
Love will right this wrong, slowly
Seconds Away
I might hear your voice in a crowded room
And I know love is just a second away
Every time you call
Heaven's just a second away
A second to paradise
Big city's got the shining lights
But that don't mean a thing to me tonight
I've traveled some miles to be yours
Big city's got the shining lights
Heaven's here and its a second away
Brought together in the darkness
A little shaky at the start
Like a slow train coming
Straight from your heart
Need those arms around me
Heaven's just a second away
A second to paradise
Every time it's something new
To wild to be contained it's true
Seconds away, one move closer
Seconds away, I heard a whisper
All Hell's the price to pay
And I'd gladly pay
Pay to know that love is just a second away
Out of Breath
One day all friends are gone
Out of town or out of breath
I need a shot to soothe my soul
The phone's disconnected or they're just not home
Tonight's the night
Found out too late
Out of time
Out of breath
In a lonely place
What will I risk tonight
Face the music, pay the price
I'd like to taste and to touch her
All I need is an alibis
The music plays loud
Everyone's waiting
Word gets around
Out on the street again
I could imagine trough storms and heat all mine
Someone calling my name
I answer back, but not in time
Tonight's the night
Found out too late
Out of time
Out of breath
In a lonely place
Burn For Me
Living out of my lonely suitcase
I burn a flame for you
Days pass without a wonder
Things I don't recognize
Burn a flame, my heat fuels your heat
Burn a flame, a flame guarantees
Burn for me
I still see the way you look
So excited and so spent
If we could break the distance
And keep the flame of innocence
Burn a flame
Like hands across some great distance
I reach to you
To forget the wasted time
To end where I began
Burn a flame, my heat fuels your heat
Burn a flame, a flame guarantees
Burn for me
With a Promise
With a promise and Philadelphia soul
He slipped into town while lights were low
Soul radio
He was on the road to shout across the nation
He shook soul U.S.A. with dancing hip action
Soul radio
He cuts the groove
Makes the mark
Works it out now
Puts it on the line
He's got us moving now
A soul star and he shines
With a promise and Philadelphia soul
He came on like a dream
He worked us over good
Soul radio
Now we're moving, fifty thousand strong
Alive with the feeling that's been gone so long
Ashes of Love
All those sparks
All that love
Blue light electricity
Black out and gone
Come to a place
I thought was love
But it was vacant
Already spent
Cold as the ashes
Ashes of love
The touch and spark
Now it is gone
The time weighs heavy
Slice of my life
Words hang in the air
Like a cut with a knife
Super heated passion
How could it last
Short circuit lover
Burnt out too fast
Deep in the night
I search 'till I find you
Search through the past to find something new
Something I've never scene
Something from a dream
Don't Look Back
Late night phone calls
Sometimes hurting 'till dawn
If we could we'd go back
And switch it all around
Crying over coffee
Staring cold and blue
Thinking back to last night
Left without a clue
Get ready baby, forget your past
It's up to you, don't look back
One night dreams in cheap hotels
Been chasing luck around
But that lady doesn't show
For last nights one night stand
Burnt out ends of smokey days
And one more night's past by
Give those regrets a rest
And let your spirit fly
Footprints always before you
Always steps behind
There's a thousand little moments
Time to make a stand
Till Tears Go By
Say that plans were uncertain
And you know plans change
I would have been there
But plans got in the way
I may be mistaken but I heard her cry
A little time to hold her
Till tears go by
You know I'd like to stay
But I'm on a different path from you
You know I want your love
But its time to move
Love's a strange number
Quite a number of things
A strange trick to play pA strange tune today
A magic carpet thing That plays out on my (these) strings
I may be mistaken but I heard her cry
A little time to hold her
Till tears go by
On my way
On my own
All night long
All alone
On my way
On the move
Tme to run
In Heaven's Light
I see this world through strange eyes
Eyes not my own
With a shift of focus
A search from within
The world is a wasteland
That burns between extremes
Nothing is for certain
A constant shifting scene
Open your eyes tonight
In heaven's light, tonight
You can see everything, alright
In heaven's light, tonight
Grace is found on no map
It's just out of view
Always in the distance
Always on the move
Some of us are rising
Others falling fast
Some things are out of focus (Some things are getting better)
And some things just can't last
Open your eyes tonight
In heaven's light, tonight
I'll show you everything, alright
In heaven's light, tonight
From the center of the silent
Where the heading's done
Where it all begins
Two move towards one
Open your eyes tonight
In heaven's light, tonight
I'll give you everything, alright
In heaven's light, tonight
