The Way Home
Buy a box of dreams, and take it to your room
But someone else's dreams, if you're not careful, will take up all the room.
But I remember when we made our own.
Yes I remember my way home.
Walk a mile in my shoes, and I'll walk a mile in yours.
And you know that when we get there we're both gonna say whatever's mine is yours.
And we'll remember how we make our own.
Yes we'll remember our way home.
Walk down my street, see all that's going on
Come and listen at the wondow, can you hear the song?
You can be in my dream, if I can be in yours
We're both walking in the gutter, but let's keep looking at the stars
We remember how we make our own
Yes we remember our way home.

Jesus is a friend of mine
Jesus is a friend of mine
He's my bread and He's my wine
He's my comfort when I'm low
Come living waters and overflow.
He says: "Come all who are weary, who hunger and thirst
I am the last and I am the first.
Give me your burdens and share mine with me
For I'm humble and gentle and I will set you free"
Jesus is a friend of mine
He's my bread and he's my wine
When shadows gather He's the light
That's always shining, he gives me sight.
He says: "I'm there when you weary or stumble or fall,
You'll be with me and Im over all
The word that I speak it stills all the strife
And I have come that you might have life"

Somethin' Wrong
This morning when I woke up
Just before the dawn
First thing that I was thinking again was
Where did it all go wrong?
All the good people,
And my happy home,
When it's all going right somethin' always goin' wrong (x2)
Well I must be doin' somethin' wrong (x2)
Well baby I think about you.
I miss your lovin' you know its true.
Right now I'm thinkin' about you.
Wondering why we couldnt get along,
Wondering why Im sitting here writing this song.
When it's all going right somethin' always goin' wrong (x2)
Well I must be doin' somethin' wrong (x3)
You know the pressure's growin'
It's hard together Lord it's harder apart.
Turn the TV on the blood is flowin'
Time was when some things were for sure
When we knew the names of the people next door
When there wasn't no shame in being poor
when to prove you were alive you didn't have to have more (x2)
Well I think we're doin' somethin' wrong (x3)
Stop children what's that sound everybody look what's going down
(quoted from "For what it's worth")
I used to think everything was cool, gonna have to send myself right back to school.
Used to think everything was fine but sometimes I can't seem to find the time.

Shelter
I need shelter
Hmm I need shelter from the storm / from the storm
I need shelter
Give me shelter from the storm / from the storm
I need you to help me on
I need a still point
I need a still point 'cos all / all around is change
Where is the still point?
I need a still point 'cos all / all around is change
Oh it's always just out of range
I'll be your shelter
I'll be your shelter from the storm / from the storm
I'll be your still point
I'll be your still point when all / all is out of range
But all and everything is change

Hearts and Minds
or The businessman, the advertiser, the banker, the children and me
They're selling tickets for the Titanic
Two for the price of one
Special offer come and Buy Buy Buy, Yes and bring the children along
Turning forests into matchsticks
Sucking all the rivers dry
Fishing all the fish from the ocean
Special offer this week Buy Buy Buy
Bye Bye
But some say Life's too short to worry 'bout tomorrow
So we might as well party till dawn.
Somebody somewhere do something,
One man dies and another one's born.
One man dies and another one's born.
If I haven't got the Nike trainers I'm dead
what i really need is Sky TV
I've gone into debt for Christmas
And I've got to consume to be me, to be me, to be free
And he's making money out of money
Enjoying the merry go round
Telling me and selling me more, more, more
And there's never gonna be enough to round
Never gonna be enough to go round
It's what he says to me
Hearts and Minds
One at a Time
We're gonna turn it around
We're gonna make a new sound (repeat)
Meanwhile over on the other side of town
Johnny's just sittin' in the sun, watching everything that's going down.
Tryin' to raise enough for a cup of tea.
Well he don't have much, no he don't have much.
Enjoy the day, Johnny, enjoy the day, enjoy the tea
Hearts and Minds
One at a Time
I wanna sing a new song
I wanna turn you on (repeat)
(repeat opening verse)

Do it
Well now everybody trippin' over why and how
but the time is good yes the time is now
lots of people runnin' crissin' crossin on the street
Goin' nowhere with no one to meet
You got to do it
Do it for somebody
Come on and Do it
Do it for somebody (x3) Right now (x3)
So don't worry where we're goin' or where we comin' from
Up is sometimes down and right is often wrong
You can run for your Mama or stand with your Pa
It's all right yes it's all good so far
So now my little song is almost done
I hope that you've enjoyed it, yes it's been lots of fun
So remember do it for your sister or do it for your bro
Just do it for somebody and it's all gonna flow.

Waiting for You
If you're looking for me you know where you'll find me
You know that I'll always have time for you
These people around me, don't always understand me
They think that I'm waiting for somebody new.
Im waiting for you, to see through these complications.
And I'm hoping too, to break through. (repeat)
When I saw you yesterday there was something i forgot to say
It's that I love you, and I need you so bad.
You know I sometimes try to pray, I know I've got to find a way,
'Cos if I don't, I think Im gonna go mad
I'm waiting for you to see though these complications
And I'm hoping too, to break through
I'm waiting for you to see through all these f**k ups of mine,
And I'm hoping too, to break through.
But darling don't make me wait too long
Oh my sweet life don't make me wait too long.
