If I could fill my soul, if I could never drive and make it home, yeah If I should look to the light, and see a bright star shining bright I'd say home, is where you are, yeah home, is where you are (Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh) If I could do what you did to me, to show a love that's true and set you free I'd say, hand me your last cigarette If I could write a song and sing it twice, for you to stay with me I'd do it right Id say bring me my guitar For its a long road, a long road to be a star Yeah It's a long road, a long road to where you are (Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh) If I could be another friend in need, in need of happiness and to be free I'd say you are the strength I need, yes you are the strength I need So close your eyes, come back to me, I need you now If only you could read my mind, and feel my heart, and breath my love If you would wait for me on my porch, and I would listen to you, oh my lord I would cry, for you are finally mine

Heart of Oak 04:58
I know this road, is much too long, For us to go, out on our own And though there's pain, and our strength is gone, Ill hold your hand, till the war is won Keep my heart near yours, and our eyes on the road And side by side, I will meet your eyes, Ill keep you free, and safe, safe from demise A change in pace, this fire will rise, We run proud and free, hear our battle cry, yeah! Keep my heart near yours, and our eyes on the road (Ooh ooh ooh ooh) Keep my heart near yours, and our eyes on the road

London 05:29
I feel it in my bones today, a fire calls my heart away I’ll leave this ground and earth and say, life lived at home is such a waste But I know it's hard when the road is far, I know it's hard when the road is far A heavy mind a beating heart, I am in need of a new start Didn't pay for things I didn't take, but judged by those who sealed my fate I cry, I plead my innocence to those who say, I'm a dead man walking away Ill burn this home down, move away, the smoke and ash will clear a way For this ol' heart to travel down, I'll make my way to London Town And I, I'll be a going now, I'll make It home, my worlds on fire I'm lost in desire oh! But I know it's hard when the road is far

For love was made to set you free, from the fires and the folly of your darkest dreams To be who you were made to be, yeah yeah yeah Love, I know it's ok, we will always find a way To stay alive, fight through the pain, all is gone but the start of the day There is hope in the start of the day For love was made to set you free, from the fires and the folly of your darkest dreams To be who you were made to be, yeah yeah yeah A piece of mind, a sovereign sigh, a joy that comes and goes with the rain For we will walk through darkened caves, where light is gone but hope remains The light is gone but hope still remains For love was made to set you free, from the fires and the folly of your darkest dreams To be who you were made to be, yeah yeah yeah! For love was made to set you free, from the fires and the folly of your darkest dreams To be who you were made to be, yeah yeah yeah And we will find the truth inside, a mystery of the love that triumphs over night Together with the love of the light, yeah yeah yeah

This I Know 04:13
(Ohhhhhh) Child you're as lonely as a starless night, a night, the black of death, that found your mothers eyes Mothers eyes, mothers eyes, mothers eyes, mothers eyes Swiftly make your way down to the open grove, wait and you will find what you are looking for Looking for, looking for, looking for, looking for Keep your path as narrow as the eagle flies, the meadows viscous snares intended for demise To fade your life, as day to night, to fade your life, as day to night The pride of man, it leads to anger and disgrace, be humble lest you come to share your fathers fate Fathers fate, fathers fate, fathers fate, fathers fate (Ohhhhhh) This I know, this I know, yeah this I know, this I know
6.
Virtues 05:32
If we were still friends, if we could forget hurt, If we didn't end, I would hear you I'd listen to your, stories of life, and death. And I'd stay by your side, till the end And I love you (oh woah) and I miss you (oh woah) But I hate you (oh woah) for you don't) love me anymore And if you were an ocean, waving to the shore And I were the coastline, you'd swallow me whole And I'd still say sorry, for getting you dry, even as I was drowning, in your sea of lies For I love you (oh woah) and I miss you (oh woah) But I hate you (oh woah for you don't) love me anymore And I'm sorry, about the ways that I hurt you And how I destroyed all my virtues, and sent you to dismay But you liar, you took the love that we shared and threw it away like Nothing, like you could just care less But I love you (oh woah) and I miss you (oh woah) But I hate you (oh woah for you don't) love me anymore
