Holy Ghost

I could be the one you
Never thought you’d come to
I could be the love
You never thought you’d learn to love
I’ll give you the keys to the rising sun
I’m not here to please you
Give it to the ones who
Doubt every feeling
They’re demeaning to their ratting bones
Form a queue, fight the beast for the Albion.
When the chips are down
Don’t hope for the rope
Open your eyes or fall short when you’re holding on
Picking up the peaces one by one
I’ve got a thought you should know
Hanging heavily on my head
Are you listening?
Holy Ghost

I'm Your Man
03:00
|

|
You can’t hold me down
Or throw me away
You’ll have to put me to ground
Lock me in a cage
Who will take this?
With the grasp of a weary hand
Oh Greatness, I’m your man
Mount up, throwing it down
Coming to stay
Wound up, been too long now
No way to contain
Who will take this?
With the grasp of a weary hand
Oh Greatness,
I’m your man

This Town
03:26
|

|
There’s a crowd on the street
Making sounds
We know what’s coming now
Let’s take a drive to the other side of this fucked up town
Where fools go
To right their wrongs
And broken souls
Ignore lost loves
A nation full of lies
in a world that they contain
What a way for a young man
to make it through his day to days
Take what is yours
Before it’s gone
At a time you choose
Or be consumed
It won’t rest this town
It won’t rest this town
It won’t rest this town
It won’t rest this town

Side of the Road
03:20
|

|
Go, jump back on the road
We’re going back down your town
Roll up into a bar
We’re throwing our arms around
You want me to love you
Oh my dear
You want me to wrap you up in tears
You want me to sell my soul for it all
On the side of the road
Go, jump back on the road
Not holding my breath for rest
No one can control what happens next
Just guess

Come Next June
04:16
|

Will I see you come next June?
When our lives have caught up
with what we're trying to prove
As I try to write down my life down
avoiding truth
I gotta to tell you honey,
this one is all for you
Well these years have come
and gone like a bus
And I hope we're wrong but
the truth is love
That our situation oh
it's real fucked up
Will I see you come next June?
Another age in my eye
and maybe a new tattoo
To say I'll try to talk you around
won't be the truth
I'll just do my best not to call
you back too soon
Well we've tried and tried and
gone insane
I'd love to say that it's all one way
But I can't so I guess
I'll see you again some day
Will I see you come next June?
At high tide on the promenade
under a full moon
Again soon I'll share my last
virginia with you
Keep your bags packed for me
I'll be coming back through
Will I see you come next June?
When our lives have caught up
with what we're trying to prove
Will I see you come next June?
Keep your bags packed for me
I'll be coming back through
Keep your bags packed for me
I'll be coming back through

Heavy Soul
04:18
|

|
As I role down my sleeves
I start to understand
Life’s symphony
Through these eyes of mine
I can finally see
How all hope is kept under lock and key
And I’ll walk back down that road
To the place I call my home
Only by what becomes of me
Will help me carry my load
Must it keep holding on now?
Let go of my heavy soul
And I’ll walk back down that road
To the place I call my home
Will I stay or will I go
Will the journey let me on?
With the sun on the rise
We will hold on to tonight
Baby darling don’t you cry
We’ll keep praying to the sky

Long Kiss Goodbye
02:46
|
|||
|
Well I know
Yes I know
Just how much I
hurt you so
Because when I call
I hear no reply
As I think I’ve had my
Long kiss goodbye
And in your eyes
I see your pain
But will I
Find Mercy
Because when I call
I hear no reply
As I think I’ve had my
Long kiss goodbye
And I can’t roll
with you no more
As I’ve had enough
of holding on

Hit the Ground Running
03:28
|
|||
|
Oh what you doing?
Oh what you saying to me?
I’ve got this cold blooded
One I can’t afford to leave
Like a wolf
Going for that open door
When you hit the ground running
You gotta go hard and low
No I can’t remember
How this ever came to be
Just it was a night in December
The cold was rushing over me
Like a boat
Fallen to the ocean floor
When you hit the ground running
You gotta go hard and low
Got this girl in the city
If could only find a way to hold
But with a sixth sense on the wind and
I’m feeling like a rolling stone

Rooster Cogburn

|
Dirty words always fall on ears so cheap
Your vows, they mystify me
When are they coming back?
Golden sunset cops the eyes of me.
Another day, another dawn is near
I am loosing track
As I go, and fight the war
This loaded gun in the hand of god
A cherished moment
Brings you to your knees
I may forget
But I still believe
Of which there’s no return
As I go, and fight the war
This loaded gun in the hand of god
And all because those words don’t wash
I will become the legend of...

Sucker Punch
04:59

|
You caught my breath
As you walk away
A sucker punch
Right down by the waist
Do you know what you’re doing?
Know, what you’re doing to me?
The kind of women that I like to see
The kind I like rested up on me
Well I hope that you’re thinking
Hope that you’re saying the same
Are you gonna, Ease my soul
Are you gonna, Be the light
I took a walk with you by the lake
Talked a tale one day I will make,
For me oh some day
Me, on the day of my dawn
Are you gonna, Ease my soul
Are you gonna, Be the light
Don’t be adding to my load
Don’t be wasting none of my time
