Boom Boom Boom

If all were well and we could tell

These visions we have to subside

And life were but one raging storm

For those of us who choose to ride

At the heart where calm prevails

We’d kneel before the master’s throne

Of blood and sweat, of wood and nails

And know that we’ve not stood alone

Chorus:

Time (time) boom boom boom

Time (time) boom boom boom

When lightning strikes and anger spites

All the good that we have done

And hands of power fold to plead

For guidance for their killing guns

When future’s past and all that’s left

In war to cast are sticks and stones

Only those in faith will rest

And know that we’ve not stood alone

Chorus:

Time (time) boom boom boom

Time (time) boom boom boom

Time (time) boom boom boom

Time (time) boom boom boom

Is this some kind of master plan

Where seas will rise and gods defend

Feel the pounding of the drums

The last of two, the second son

So take this worry from his hands

Drink it deep and sorrow filled

Call upon your ancient clans

Walk through oceans or the hills

Sing it like an endless song

Find the answers where they’ve blown

Let your weary will be done

And know that we’ve not stood alone

Chorus:

Time (time) boom boom boom

Time (time) boom boom boom

Time (time) boom boom boom

Time (time) boom boom boom

Stone By Stone

Sky’s turning black, I gotta make this a happen

Please bring her back, and if you do this for me

Timber by timber, stone by stone

With your strength I know

We’ll rebuild

She left me in a panic

I’d taken way too much for granted

She said, I can’t stand this

I have to let go

You know I’d never leave you

But this river’s too strong

I can’t hold on anymore

I called her name, cursed the rain

Used my anger, all my pain

I gave it all I had

But her hand slipped away

I tried to swim, I grabbed a limb

I held on tightly to our son

I didn’t want to go on, so I prayed

Many days now have passed

And I’ve managed to last

With time I’ve accepted she’s gone

But I need your assistance

To fight this resistance

You know I can do it

But I can’t do it alone

Waters rising, people crying

Oh, and I just keep on trying

To help who I can, but there comes no relief

My heart is breaking, my body’s shaking

My god, has my country forsaken me

Forsaken me

Sky’s turning black, and I just gotta make this happen

Please bring her back, and if you do this for me

Timber by timber, stone by stone

In your strength I know

We’ll rebuild

Sky’s turning black, I gotta make this happen

Please bring her back, and if you do this for me

Timber by timber, stone by stone

With your strength in my bones

We’ll rebuild New Orleans

Oh New Orleans

She left me in a panic

I’d taken way too much for granted

Drive

No final destination, no end in sight

Cruising down this highway doing 95

Sign posts like friendly ghosts

Love this Nova Scotia coast

All I want to do today is drive

Hiding from nobody, not trying to run

Little twist of faith never hurt no one

The top is down, the music’s loud

The world is my oyster now

All I want to do today is drive

Chorus:

Drive – just wanna go where I’ve never been

I just wanna drive

Just wanna see what I’ve never seen

I just wanna drive

Just wanna flow with the changing tide

I just wanna drive

Just wanna be all alone tonight

Surrender my body, surrender my heart

My soul is not mine to give

But some day when it parts

This space that holds it in

It’ll ride the never ending wind

Lay down all it’s worries and

Chorus:

Drive – just wanna go where I’ve never been

I just wanna drive

Just wanna see what I’ve never seen

I just wanna drive

Just wanna flow with the changing tide

Just wanna be all alone tonight

Just wanna feel that my world is right

Yeah all right

I just wanna drive

Just wanna see what I’ve never seen

I just wanna drive

Just wanna flow with the changing tide

I just wanna drive

Just wanna be all alone tonight

Going Home

I wish I’d never wrote those words, wish I’d never sent them

Wish I could turn back time

I can only hope you know I never meant them

But you haven’t gotten back to me

I’m losing my mind

I’m caught in a storm, starting to fall

Tired of this long winding road

Chorus:

Going home, stop this train

Going home, take this load

Going home, no more games

I’m going home

Guess I kinda lost my head, I find it so damn draining

I need a little time with you

Although our lives are different, they are equally insane

And I know some days you feel this way too

Innocence lost, lying awake

Hearts on the line, testing our faith

This feeling just shot through my soul

Chorus:

Going home, stop this train

Going home, take this load

Going home, no more games

I’m going home

Caught in a storm, starting to fall

This feeling just shot through my, shot through my soul

Chorus:

Going home, stop this train

Going home, take this load

Going home, no more games

I’m going home

Going home, stop this train

Going home, take this load

Going home, no more games

I’m going home

Without Words

I’m awake, you are sleeping

I’m amazed when I’m with you

Is this wrong, I am no one

You belong

Open your eyes

I have this feeling I am

Chorus:

Falling for you, falling for you

Without shame, without hurt

Without name, without words

Without fear, no regrets

When you’re near, I’m a mess

This much I know is true

I am alone without you

All the stars are now golden

In the sky when I’m with you

From now on, I’ll be someone

I’ll belong

Open your eyes

I have this feeling I am

Chorus:

Falling for you, falling for you

Without shame, without hurt

Without name, without words

Without fear, no regrets

When you’re near, I’m a mess

This much I trust is true

I’d be lost without you

So Small

Like snow on a mountain, riddled with worry

Like leaves on an oak, every colour of fall

Like a ship in full sail, in the heart of a fury

Ours is the glory, ours is the fall

Why even try to make sense of it all

Life is a stage, I play my part

Every note an expression, every last curtain call

I’ll make you laugh, I’ll break your heart

I’ll never try to make sense of it all

Why even try to make sense of it all

For this life I’ve known is all I’ve needed

And sorrows few, too few to say

I’ll not stand alone, I’ll not stand defeated

When it comes my time, I’ll smile and say

I rose every day with good in my heart

Tried to follow your way when you called

In this great plan, so little my part

So amazing, so small

So small

So amazing

This life is so amazing

So amazing

So small
