"Fires Of Eden"

"Fires Of Eden"


It's not over till it's over
I heard someone say
Must be a whisper in the wind
'Cause you're too far away
But in my restless sleep
I could swear, I saw you next to me
Sayin' oh, I'm comin' home
You'll never spend another night alone

Remember when love was innocent
There was never a better time
But you know those fires of Eden
Still burn in this heart of mine

The morning's uncertain
It's a nervous day
And I look for a reason
Why I should feel this way
I hear a voice run before
Driftin' through my open door
Sayin' it's alright
We're gonna light those flames tonight

Remember when love was innocent
There was never a better time
But you know those fires of Eden
Still burn in this heart of mine

Remember when love was freedom
We knew we were two of a kind
But you know those fires of Eden
Still burn in this heart of mine

And don't you wonder
How we drifted so far
When we belong to each other
Ooh we were miles apart
And there's a place
That was meant for the two of us
And when you touch the embers
You feel my love as strong as it ever was

Remember when love was innocent
There was still be better times
But you know those fires of Eden
Still burn in this heart of mine

Remember when love was freedom
We knew we were two of a kind
But you know those fires of Eden
Still burn in this heart of mine

Remember when love was innocent
There was still be better times
But you know those fires of Eden
Still burn in this heart of mine

"Fit To Fly"

"Fit To Fly"


Oh brother, man where are you
I am bucklin' from the load
I have lost my eye for color
And my heart can't see the road
Oh sister, come and catch me
'Cause my legs, their prime has past
I am breaking from the sorrow
And my faith is fadin' fast
Mother, father, help me
I'm your flesh and blood and bone
Don't you hear me
Can't you see me
Am I doomed to live alone

Without warmth or love or honor
Like a dog out on the street
Am I trash 'cause I can't manage
Must I grovel at your feet

I'm the boy who fought your battles
And I'm the man who won your wars
Is it over?
Have you used me?
I'm no value anymore

I'm your mothers,
Wives, and daughters
I'm your fathers, husbands, sons
I'm the life's blood of this country
I'm the hopeful precious ones

Am I nothing,
Am I no one
Once a fabric,
Now a rag
We treat people like they're nothing
We're not fit to fly,
Fit to fly
No, no, no - no, no, no

We're not fit to fly
Fit to fly a flag (no, no, no)
Join the Army
See the world
The Marine Corps
Join the Navy
We're not fit to fly
Fit to fly the flag

"Flashback"

"Flashback"


You were born between a rock and a hard place
To a couple of losers
I lived on the other side of your duplex
I heard you getting those bruises
I never would've wanted to walk in your shoes
It scared me to death, I was a kid too
Sometimes I think about you
Travis are you out there somewhere
Searching for somebody to care
Are you doing the same thing
That your daddy did to you
Wish I could have helped you somehow
Wonder if it's just too late now
Saw your pain, how come nobody
Seemed to have a clue
Is your world still black and blue
Travis, Travis
Did you follow in your mama's footsteps
Strung out on bad things
Just a product of circumstances
Never taught what love means
Travis I hope you did it different this time
All you had to do was make up your mind
Well, how did you decide to live your life
Travis are you out there somewhere
Searching for somebody to care
Are you doing the same thing
That your daddy did to you
Wish I could have helped you somehow
Wonder if it's just too late now
Saw your pain, how come nobody
Seemed to have a clue
Is your world still black and blue
Travis, Travis
And the circle goes round
Until someone hears the sound
Of a breaking heart
Wish I could have helped you somehow
Wonder if it's just too late
Saw your pain, how come nobody
Seemed to have a clue
Is your world still black and blue
Travis, Travis, Travis, Travis, Travis

"For What It's Worth"
(originally by Buffalo Springfield)



There's something happening here
What it is ain't exactly clear
There's a man with a gun over there
Telling me I got to beware
I think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
There's battle lines being drawn
Nobody's right if everybody's wrong
Young people speaking their minds
Getting so much resistance from behind
I think it's time we stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
What a field-day for the heat
A thousand people in the street
Singing songs and carrying signs
Mostly say, hooray for our side
It's time we stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Paranoia strikes deep
Into your life it will creep
It starts when you're always afraid
You step out of line, the man come and take you away
We better stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Stop, now, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Stop, children, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down

"Games"

"Games"


I know you're a gamester
I'm the queen of spades
A ruler of hearts
Clash at the moon
I take my trips right from the start
I'm a sucker for love
Joker running wild
My heart it can break
Ooh it can break
Frail as a child

Whatever it is, it is
Whatever will be, it's gonna be
Whoever you are, you are
But those games that you play
Don't cha play'em with me

You're a visionary dreamer
Fool in a state, takes of chance
Love is a hazard, ooh such a hazard
When you flirt with romance
It's like shootin' the dice
Flip a coin in the air
You running on luck
Odds are against you
You're not playing fair

Whatever it is, it is
Whatever will be, it's gonna be
Whoever you are, you are
But those games that you play
Don't cha play'em with me

Stacking a deck, dealing the cards
Watch what you take
Standing on love

"Geronimo's Cadillac"
(originally by Michael Martin Murphey)



Put Geronimo in jail down south
Where he couldn't look
A gift horse in the mouth
Took old Geronimo by storm
Ripped off the feathers from his uniform

Oh boys, take me back
I wanna ride in Geronimo's cadillac
Oh boys, take me back
I wanna ride in Geronimo's cadillac

Sergeant, sergeant, oh don't you feel
There's something wrong with your automobile
Warden, warden, oh listen to me
Be brave and set Geronimo free
Governor, governor, oh isn't it strange
You never seen a car on the indian range

Oh boys, take me back
I wanna ride in Geronimo's cadillac
Oh boys, take me back
I wanna ride in Geronimo's cadillac

People, people, oh don't you know
The indian's got no place to go
Jesus told me, and I believe it's true
The red man's in the sunset too
Took our land, now they won't give it back
They sent Geronimo a cadillac

Oh boys, take me back
I wanna ride in Geronimo's cadillac
Oh boys, take me back
I wanna ride in Geronimo's cadillac

You have a date for half past eight tonight
Some distant bell starts chiming nine
You wanna see her, oh, you wanna see her, oh yeah
But you wait, you wait and wait
Girl don't come

You wanna go, but just you try, guy

"Give Our Love A Fightin' Chance"

"Give Our Love A Fightin' Chance"


So you wanna throw our love away
So you think we oughta say goodbye
And you tell me we've run out of time
Can't make your heart stop on a dime

You could always walk away
Like you never saw my face
If you wanted to

You could tell yourself a lie
Say this love ain't worth a try
But you know that isn't true
Your heart is tellin' you

Whoa, we gotta take a stand
Give our love a fightin' chance
We can talk it over, baby
Woman to man
Give our love a fightin' chance

So you think you'll wish it all away
Click your heels and leave it all behind
But don't ya know that in the real world
You gotta fight to keep love alive

There's a battle to be won
And if both our hearts are strong
We can make it though

So don't turn your back and run
'Cause your hearts under the gun
It's a case of do or die
Break down the walls of pride

Whoa, we gotta take a stand
Give our love a fightin' chance
We can talk it over, baby
Woman to man
Give our love a fightin' chance

We've already said...goodbye.
Since you gotta go, oh, you had better go now.
Go now, go now.
Go now.
Before you see me cry.
I don't want you to tell me just what you intend to do now.
'Cause how many times do I have to tell you, darlin' darlin',
I'm still in love with you now.
Whoaaa.

We've already said...so long.
I don't want to see you go, oh, you had better go now.
Go now, go now.
Go now.
Don't you even try.
Telling me that you really don't want it to end this way.
But, darlin' darlin', can't you see I want you to stay.
Yeahhh.

Since you gotta go, oh, you had better go now.
Go now, go now.
Go now.
Before you see me cry.
I don't want you to tell me just what you intend to do now.
But how many times do I have to tell you, darlin' darlin',
I'm still in love, still in love with you now.

I don't wanna see you go, but darlin', you'd better go now.
