Born For The Road

Long is the night when I'm driving alone
It’s just me in the car and you’re back at home
With a bottle of wine and a smile that says ‘come on in’
It’s dark outside and poring with rain
But there’s joy in here, I’m coming home again
Coming back to you, one mile at a time
Throw open that door……. and hold me
Baby never let me go
We both know its been way too long
Could you please please…. forgive me
I know not what I do
But sometimes I must bear a heavy load
And you know I was born for the road
As the radio plays I’m singing along
To a tune we danced to in a time long gone
And I feel you now, just like I did then
When I get home it’s like we were never apart
But when I leave it simply breaks your heart
So I guess we know, something has to change
Throw open that door……. and hold me
Baby never let me go
We both know its been way too long
Could you please please…. forgive me
I know not what I do
But sometimes I must bear a heavy load
And you knLong is the night when I'm driving alone

And you know I was born for the road
500 miles and it’s getting late
But you’re waiting there by that rusty gate
Just like you’ve always been, with beauty in your eyes
Our home is warm the fire alight
The prefect scene on a perfect night
To be home again with our love shining bright
Throw open that door……. and hold me
Baby never let me go
We both know its been way too long

Move On

I didn’t know if I’d ever have the courage
To close the door and leave it all behind
I still can’t find the words to tell that story
And when it comes to my tomorrow I’m flying blind
My favourite bar was out of my favourite whisky
A bottle of beer wouldn't take the pain away
So I turn the key and head out to the border
The radio's on and the music seems to say
Gotta Move on to a different type of country
Gotta move on to a better part of town
Say goodbye to the devil that stood beside me
Walk away from a life that brought me down
Gotta move on, head held high and not turn around
I finally found the one that understands me
Makes me smile just like I used to do
There’s a real long road that leads me back to glory
But every step helps this old heart renew
Gotta Move on to a different type of country
Gotta move on to a better part of town
Say goodbye to the devil that stood beside me
Walk away from a life that brought me down
Gotta move on, head held high and not turn around
There’s at least two sides to every situation
And the quietest voice often speaks the truth
If you listen just to those who shout it loud from the roof
You’ll only have the gossip…..
And not the proof
Gotta Move on to a different type of country
Gotta move on to a better part of town
Say goodbye to the devil that stood beside me
Walk away from a life that brought me down
Gotta move on, head held high and not turn around

Deep in the woods in the south of this land
Lived a girl with a dream who was hatching a plan
She bought a guitar and she wrote a few songs
And wherever she played they would all singalong
She pedalled her tunes ‘round the clubs and the bars
Playing for drinks or the tips in a jar
Then out of the dark came a sharply dressed man
With the promise of fortune and fame in his hand
Come and sing with me
'bout the heart that I wear on my sleeve
Come and sing with me
Its the reason that I live and breathe
No matter the voice, no matter the mood
No matter who’s higher or lower than you
If your soul is in need of the sun or the moon
Then drop all your worries and follow my tune
Interviews, radio, stadiums played
Albums that sold by the thousand a day
Fan clubs and limos and photos to sign
But there in her hand was barely a dime
When lights were turned down and the crowds had all gone
Back in her room with the radio on
A song from the past started filling the room
And she knew in her heart what she had to do
So she took the bus home
With just her guitar
Back to the place where her people left more than just tips in a jar
Come and sing with me
'bout the heart that I wear on my sleeve
Come and sing with me
Its the reason that I live and breathe
No matter the voice, no matter the mood
No matter who’s higher or lower than you
If you’re soul is in need of the sun or the moon
Then drop all your worries and follow my tune…
If you’re soul is in need of the sun or the moon
Then drop all your worries and follow my tune

Without You

Your chestnut eyes, shine like the sun
Your morning smile, tells me I’m the one
The way you hold me warms, me to my core
I can’t be without you, anymore
You know my heart, better than I do
I’ll answer the call but only cause it’s you
This love is real, this love is raw
I can’t be without you any more
I give thanks each day for your kisses and the way you hold my hand
And understand
There we lay, in the afterglow
We pray to god, still we must go
With tears in our eyes, we close the door
And I can’t be without you any more
