The Lion
(A. Smith, A. Barnett, D. Colwell, R. Young)
Late at night
Rain falling down
Sets my mind wandering
I take a drive on a highway
I see you standing in the rain
Destiny was calling me
I would never be the same
You said your heart was aching, you were sad
(heart was aching)
I saw you cry the night you lied to me, oh no...oh no
You took my hand, then faded with the light
They said you died out on the road that night
I'm in a cold, cold sweat
Knuckles white upon the wheel
Danger flies on silent wings
I can't fight and I can't feel
Now I'm standing in the daylight
And it seems just like a dream
If only I could touch you, girl
But you're not there for real
You said your heart was aching, you were sad
(heart was aching)
Oh, yeah
I saw you cry the night you lied to me, oh no...oh no
You took my hand, then faded with the light
They said you died out on the road that night
You said your heart was aching, you were sad
(heart was aching)
I saw you cry the night you lied to me, oh no...oh no
You took my hand, then faded with the light - that's right
They said you died out on the road that night
You said your heart was aching, you were sad
(heart was aching)
I saw you cry the night you lied to me, oh no...oh no
You took my hand, then faded with the light
They said you died out on the road that night - oh no!
Silver and Gold (breve para dowload)
(A. Smith, A. Barnett, D. Colwell, R. Young)
Darkness descending
Night coming down in the city
She walks the street in search of fortune
Down in a doorway
There's a man with no hope or pride
He can't go on, he can't survive
Out in the jungle called the city
(no mercy)
You'll never make it on your own
You got to have that
Silver and gold, see you grow old
Turn with your back to the wall - yeah, yeah
Silver and gold, out in the cold
Run, but there's nowhere to go
Now he got no future
All just because of his past
Now he's got a gun, he's tired of talking, yeah
(ahh)
Hole in your pocket, hole in your shoe
Chip on your shoulder, you got that too
And you steal a ride, you're tired of walking
Well, in the cold, cold winter city
(no mercy)
You'll never make it on your own
You got to have that
Silver and gold, see you grow old
Turn with your back to the wall - yeah, yeah
(back to the wall)
Silver and gold, out in the cold
Run, but there's nowhere to go
(nowhere to go)
Silver and gold, see you grow old
Turn with your back to the wall - yeah, yeah
(back to the wall)
Silver and gold, out in the cold
Run, but there's nowhere to go
(nowhere to go)
Out in the jungle called the city
You'll never make it on your own
You got to have that
Silver and gold, see you grow old
Turn with your back to the wall - yeah, yeah
(back to the wall)
Silver and gold, out in the cold
Run, but there's nowhere to go
(nowhere to go)
Silver and gold, see you grow old
Turn with your back to the wall - yeah, yeah
(back to the wall)
Silver and gold, out in the cold
Run, but there's nowhere to go
(nowhere to go)
Silver and gold, see you grow old
Turn with your back to the wall - yeah, yeah
(back to the wall)
Silver and gold, out in the cold
Run, but there's nowhere to go
Down the Wire
(A. Smith, A. Barnett, D. Colwell, R. Young)
Heart's on fire, 'cause down the wire
Comes a voice from my past
My eyes ablaze, I have no escape
It's a need I've got to ask
Believe right from the start
Hold on to what you've got
Have faith in someone, down the wire
Pure in spirit, strong at heart
Long in truth, but short of the mark
I know your time will come one day
Down the wire comes my heart
Worlds apart, you're next to me
Down the wire, down all the days
You been gone, you promised me
You can cross me a river
And I will beckon you
Down the wire
Heart's on fire, 'cause down the wire
Comes a voice out of the cold
Would I miss your touch, would I miss my own sight
There's a heart that's beating down the line tonight
Believe right from the start
Hold on to what you've got
Have faith in someone, down the wire
Pure in spirit, strong at heart
Long in truth, but short of the mark
I know your time will come one day
Down the wire comes my heart
Worlds apart, you're next to me
Down the wire, down all the days
You been gone, you promised me
You can climb me a mountain
And you'll see what I do
Down the wire
(yeah)
Down the wire comes my heart
Worlds apart, you're next to me
Down the wire, down all the days
You been gone, you promised me
You can cross me a river
And I will beckon you
Down the wire comes my heart
Worlds apart, you're next to me
Down the wire, down all the days
You been gone, you promised me
Down the wire comes my heart
Worlds apart, you're next to me
Down the wire, down all the days
You been gone, you promised me
Promised me
Down all the days
Since you've been gone
Down all the days
You been gone, you been gone
Down the wire (wire)
Wire (wire)
Wire comes my heart
Down the wire
Since you've been gone
You Could Be A King
(A. Smith, A. Barnett, D. Colwell, R. Young)
A memory's in my mind, of another time
And now I feel it's right to share
The rebel in my soul is yours to tame
Life is not a cross we bear
Let's take a look around...
Time flows, like a river she goes
Make the most of what you've got
When a man is born, to the earth he's thrown
Make this your paradise
You could be a king, but it don't mean a thing
If what's in your heart remains unspoken
Look for the truth before it looks for you
Your heart strong, never broken, yeah
There's a city in the sky, built for you and I
Keeps us dreaming on and on, on and on
And now I search my soul, looking for a sign
Show you right where I went wrong
Let's take a look around...
Time flows, like a river she goes
Make the most of what you've got
When a man is born, to the earth he's thrown
Make this your paradise
You could be a king, but it don't mean a thing
If what's in your heart remains unspoken
Look for the truth before it looks for you
Your heart strong, never broken
Ride the storm, safe in your arms
Catch the sun to light your way
Let's take a look around...
Time flows, like a river she goes
Make the most of what you've got
When a man is born, to the earth he's thrown
Make this your paradise
You could be a king, but it don't mean a thing
If what's in your heart remains unspoken
Look for the truth before it looks for you
Your heart strong, never broken
Time flows, like a river she goes
Make the most of what you've got
When a man is born, to the earth he's thrown
Make this your paradise
You could be a king, but it don't mean a thing
If what's in your heart remains unspoken
Look for the truth before it look for you
After the Storm
(A. Smith, A. Barnett, D. Colwell, R. Young)
I still hear them crying for mercy, screaming in anger
I still see the face in the darkness mirror their pain
It wasn't their fault, but they suffer anyway
Life's cheap, they say
When the times comes to pay, you'll be waiting
The voice of a lost generation, the cost is a crime
(ohhh)
And history screams out, but they do it anyway
Let the video roll
'Cause you're burning my soul with your message
The sound and the vision bring pictures into my home
(no, no, no)
And the children, they cry, but life goes on anyway
(after the storm)
You can see the thunder in her eyes
(oh no)
Even though the blood runs so cold
(after the storm)
Keep a fire burning in your heart
(after the storm, nowhere to run)
(after the storm)
You can see the thunder in her eyes
(oh no)
Soon the day will come when you will rise
(after the storm)
Until then, you'll have to tow the line
(after the storm, nowhere to run)
I still them crying for mercy, echoing pain
(ohhh)
You're just a man with your head in the sand, not to blame
You're such a long way from here
You're such a long way from here
If I ever get outta here
Fall to my knees and say a prayer
If I ever get outta this place
Look to the sky and accept my fate
(ohhh, yeah)
(after the storm)
You can see the thunder in her eyes
(oh no)
Even though the blood runs so cold
(after the storm)
Keep a fire burning in your heart
(after the storm, nowhere to run)
(after the storm)
You can see the thunder in her eyes
(oh no)
Soon the day will come when you will rise
(after the storm)
Until then, you'll have to tow the line
(after the storm, nowhere to run)
(after the storm)
You can see the thunder in her eyes
(oh no)
Even though the blood runs so cold
(after the storm)
Keep a fire burning in your heart
(after the storm, nowhere to run)
(oh yeah, after the storm)
(nowhere to run)
(oh, after the storm)
(your day will come, yeah)
(oooh, oh yeah)
Misunderstood
(A. Smith, A. Barnett, D. Colwell, R. Young)
In his mind he's been to hell and back again
Left a trail of broken dreams
The smile you wear just hides your fear
Out on the edge of the night
You can't tell what's wrong from right
Tell me, what went wrong with my mind?
I've been bad, mistreated - don't understand
Never make a diamond from a grain of sand
Nobody (nobody), change if I could
I'm not a bad man - I'm just misunderstood
(mistreated)
Misunderstood, yeah
(mistreated)
(mistreated)
Life's unkind, so hard upon an only child
Took it all out on the world
Don't you know two wrongs don't make a right
Look into my eyes
See the pain of a lifetime
What went wrong with my mind?
I've been bad, mistreated - don't understand
Never make a diamond from a grain of sand
Nobody (nobody), change if I could
I'm not a bad man - I'm just misunderstood, yeah
(mistreated)
Misunderstood, yeah
(oh, yeah
(mistreated)
All my life
(mistreated)
He wants to love somebody, and nothing less
He says no man can take the pressure and loneliness
He's over the edge...
I've been bad, mistreated - don't understand
Never make a diamond from a grain of sand
(out on my own)
Nobody (nobody), change if I could
I'm not a bad man - I'm just misunderstood, yeah
(mistreated)
Misunderstood
(yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(who'd get it?)
(who'd get it?)
I've been bad, mistreated - don't understand
Never make a diamond from a grain of sand
Out on my own
Nobody (nobody), change if I could
I'm not a bad man - I'm just misunderstood, yeah
(mistreated)
Misunderstood
(yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(mistreated)
(mistreated)
Kid Gone Astray
(A. Smith, A. Barnett, D. Colwell, R. Young)
He waits every evening outside schoolyard gates
Dealing death, whoever wants to pay
(oh yeah, you'll pay)
Hide your tears, act much older than your years
Can't you see - it's building up this way?
Just another kid gone astray
Hey, mama, do you know just where your baby's gone?
Do you know she walks the streets at night?
(that's right)
Emergency - but you can't believe just what you see
Read the news - it happens every day
Just another kid gone astray
Don't bite the helping hand
That reaches out to understand
We all need a little time
To put the reason to the rhyme
'Cause everybody has their day
But sooner or later we all gonna stray
Gone astray - aw, yeah, yeah, yeah
Gone astray
Just like a loaded gun
Trigger-happy and on the run
Nobody gonna stand in my way, yeah
But don't lose touch
Slip through my hands and out of reach
Come on back, we'll work it out some way
(oh, yeah)
The stakes are high, but you can't gamble with your life
Can't you see - I need you here today
Just another kid gone astray
(oh, yeah, yeah)
Kid gone astray
(oh, yeah, yeah)
Kid gone astray
Don't bite the helping hand
That reaches out to understand
We all need a little time
To put the reason to the rhyme
Well, everybody has their day
But sooner or later we all go astray
Gone astray - oh, yeah
Gone astray
Don't bite the helping hand
That reaches out to understand
We all need a little time
To put the reason to the rhyme
Well, everybody has their day
But sooner or later we all go astray
Gone astray - oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
(gone astray)
You're just another kid gone astray...
Fallen Heroes
(A. Smith, A. Barnett, D. Colwell, R. Young)
Heart of a lion, fight to the end, run like the wind
A champion of champions, best in the land, you always win
Don't fade away, don't fade away
Run with your dream right to the end
Your spirit flies on eagle's wings
Never coming down
Fallen heroes, no more worship
Where have all your good times gone?
Once I stood atop this mountain
Glory days set like the sun
Sitting all alone, staring at a TV screen
I'm thinking of the past
I'm living in a land of faded memories
Realize that nothing lasts
Don't fade away, don't fade away
Reach out to you, but you're not there
Your soul was never meant to be
Tied to the ground
Fallen heroes, no more worship
Where have all your good times gone?
Once I stood atop this mountain
Glory days set like the setting sun
Took away my fame and fortune
Left me with no place to go
Fallen hero, modern reject
They don't remember yesterday
Fallen heroes, no more worship
Where have all your good times gone?
Once I stood atop this mountain
Glory days set like the setting sun
Took away my fame and fortune
Left me with no place to go
Fallen hero, modern reject
They don't remember yesterday
Fallen hero, no more worship
Where have all your good times gone?
Once I stood atop this mountain
Glory days set like the setting sun
Took away my fame and fortune
Left me with no place to go
Fallen hero, modern reject
They don't remember yesterday
The hero falls into disgrace
Out of time and out of place
Part of me and part of you
Would love to be a hero too
They took away my fame and fortune
Left me with no place to go
Fallen hero, modern reject
They don't remember...
Wishing Your Life Away
(A. Smith, A. Barnett, D. Colwell, R. Young)
Locked up, banged up, can't think for yourself
Twenty-four hours in a ten-foot cell
Rights of a prisoner, needs of a dog
Stare at the ceiling, make your peace with god
Night calls, my heart falls, hours turn to days
Daybreak - oh, heartache...
Looking down in disbelief
I see myself, it can't be me
Wishing your life away
Pray that tomorrow comes
Cry your tears today, yeah
Yesterday may never come
Well, well...
Backed up, jacked up, it's worse than you think
Thirty long days, just one little drink
No hands on the wheel, no foot to the floor
Just walls and a ceiling and the slamming of a cell door
Lights out, the night shouts, the days drag on and on
Daybreak - oh, heartache...
No way out, there's no escape
I think this time I'm going crazy
