"That's All I Need To Know"

"That's All I Need To Know"


Maybe I Have
No Grounds To Feel Jealous
But I'M Just A Guy
Who'S Got To Tell It Like It Is
I Must Be Sure Of Your Love
On That I Exist

Is There Someone
To Whose Heart You Belong
Just Tell Me Now
Darling I Will Be Gone
But If He Is Stealing From Me
Then That Would Be Wrong

I Stand My Ground
Against Any Man
Who Would Try To Take You From My Arms
If You Know Me At All
You Know I Don'T Let Go
As Long As You Want Me
That'S All I Need To Know

I'Ve Never Been
What They Call The Fighting Kind
But I'M A Man
Who'Ll Defend What Is Mine
I'Ve Built My World Around You

[Chorus]
[Solo]

If You Know Me At All
You Know I Don'T Let Go
As Long As You Want Me
That'S All I Need To Know
I Don'T Back Down
When I'Ve Got My Feet On The Ground
I'M A Peace Loving Man
But I'Ll Take The Blows
As Long As You Want Me
That'S All I Need To Know
That'S All I Need To Know
That'S All I Need To Know

"The Fall"

"The Fall"


Strange how this world works
I don't care about your place
You better believe you're gonna get her
You gotta let go, it's out of your hands

One day you're gonna look back
See the reason that you got back

It's all in the fall
That's when you find out what you're all about
We've all been hurt, we've all been burnt
You get knocked down, kicked around, then you get back up
It's all in the fall, starting over again, starting over again

Somebody once told me
Trouble is trouble's gonna be coming your way
When the world gets dark and lonely
You might stumble and fall but you get through it all
It's gonna be okay

One day you're gonna look back
And see it all happen so damn fast, so fast

It's all in the fall
That's when you find out what you're all about
We've all been hurt, we've all been burnt
You get knocked down, kicked around and then you get back up
It's all in the fall

You don't know who you are till it all comes tumbling down
Next thing you know you've found

That it's all in the fall
That's when you find out what you're all about
Yes, it's all in the fall
That's when you find out what you're all about

We've all been hurt, we've all been burnt
You get knocked down, kicked around and then you get back up
It's all in the fall, it's all in the fall, starting over again
Starting over again

"The Great Divide"

"The Great Divide"


Nights are long
And the wind is howling down
Into the hollows
Somewhere deep inside
I can hear you calling out
Across the great divide
Right or wrong there's a feeling in my heart
I try to follow
But lately i just hide
And my dream of someday crawling out
To cross this great divide
Isolation
Heart like a drum
And the beating is wearing me down
Standing at the station
But the train never comes
Still I'm hanging on
Like some old ghost town
Miles to go but I see that one way out
Stars in the distance
Skies are open wide
Waiting for my soul to rise
Above this great divide
Desperation
Is a dangerous blade
In a reckless and trembling hand
Sweet salvation
Just a thin line away
I should cut and run
But I'll make my stand
Nights are long
But I'll close my eyes again
Until tomorrow
Slip the bonds and ride
Touch the face I long to see
Above this great divide
We'll be all We long to be
Beyound this great divide

"The Jealous Kind"

"The Jealous Kind"


Girl, don't be angry if I seem rude
Each time we meet
A boy that you once knew
[??] just to be so close to you

It's just that I'm so afraid
Someone might steal you away, I'd lose my mind
So please forgive me for the way I act sometimes
I'm the jealous kind

If you only knew where I lived
And didn't mind
[?] can't you see [??]
That I'm losing my mind

I want you all to myself
I don't want you shackin' with nobody else
I can't help it if it's the way I act sometimes
Because I'm the jealous kind

You know I love you girl

Just one more thing now,If you only knew
How much it hurts me just to hear you say
How, when we first met
I can't think that those were the good old days

Why must you hurt me so
I can't stand it no more, I'm tryin'
So please, I can't control these tears in my eyes
Lord I'm the jealous kind

I love you baby
You know you've got me baby

You know I'm the jealous kind

"The Last Road"

"The Last Road"


I don't want to live forever
Though I wish for nothin' better
Than forever with you

Baby don'cha say you're leaving
Ain't no way I'll stop believing
Just hold on tight
Hold on tight
To me

Burn the headlights
Till the night is gone
Pull me closer
If you say it's over
Then you're wrong

Cause this ain't the last road
The brave ones never run home
Tonight we will live fast
And die young
We never dance alone
Tonight
We could drive a million places
And listen to a million places
And listen to a million stations
You know
I'll sing along
With you

Burn the headlights
Till the night is gone
Pull me closer
If you say it's over
Then you're wrong

'Cause this ain't the last road
The brave ones never run home
Tonight we live fast
And die young
But we never dance alone
'Cause this ain't the last road
We'll pave the highway in gold
Stand by and me and don't leave
Lonely
This ain't the last road

Have a lil' faith in me
Hold on
Hold on
'Cause I don't believe
In time
This time
Don't say goodnight

'Cause babe it's our last road
We'll pave the highway in gold
Won't take a single step
Without you
Without you by my side
'Cause this ain't the last road
'Cause this ain't the last road
The brave ones never run home
Tonight we live fast
And die young
But we never dance alone
'Cause tis ain't the last road
Tonight
Tonight

"The Letting Go"

"The Letting Go"


You can look away
But you can't disguise
The light that shines so brightly
Is gone from your eyes
It wasn't my mistake
It's nothing you did wrong
Sometimes learning to surrender
Is the same as being strong

Letting go
Letting go
The hardest part is knowing
That I'll miss you so
I'd like to wish you well
Oh but it hurts you know
Sometimes doing what is right
Means letting go
Yeah

As we walk away
Leaving it all behind
I hope we will be satisfied
With what we'll find
And if it's not all you want
I hope it's good enough
To make it worth
The precious things
We're giving up

Letting go
Letting go
The hardest part is knowing
That I'll miss you so
I'd like to wish you well
Hey but it hurts you know
Sometimes doing what is right
Means letting go

Sometimes late at night
I can't believe the things I hear
An angel comes to me
And whispers in my ears
Saying there's a time to read
And a time of the soul
A time for holding on
And a time
Just for

Letting go
Letting go
The hardest part is knowing
That I'll miss you so
I'd like to wish you well
Girl but it hurts you know
Sometimes doing what is right
Means letting go
I'd like to wish you well
Oh but it hurts you know
Sometimes doing what is right
Means letting go
Oh.

"The Man In Me"

"The Man In Me"


The man in me will do nearly any task
As for compensation, there's a little he will ask
Take a woman like you
To get through to the man in me.

Storm clouds are raging all around my door
I think to myself I might not take it anymore
Take a woman like your kind
To find the man in me.

But, oh what a wonderful feeling
Just to know that you are near
It sets my heart a-reeling
From my toes up to my ears.

The man in me will hide sometimes to keep from being seen
But that's just because he doesn't want to turn into some machine
Take a woman like you
To get through to the man in me.

"The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress"

"The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress"


See her as she flies
Golden sails across the skies
Close enough to touch
But careful if you try
Though she looks as warm as gold
The moon's a harsh mistress
The moon can be so cold

Once the sun did shine
And Lord it felt so fine
The moon a phantom rose
Through the mountains and the pine
And then the darkness fell
The moon's a harsh mistress
It's hard to love her well

I fell out of her eyes
I fell out of her heart
I fell down on my face, yes I did
And I tripped and I missed my star
And I fell and fell alone
The moon's a harsh mistress
The sky is made of stone

The moon's a harsh mistress
She's hard to call your own

"The One"

"The One"


Is it getting better
Or do you feel the same
Will it make it easier on you now
You got someone to blame
You say...

One love
One life
When it's one need
In the night
One love
We get to share it
Leaves you baby if you
Don't care for it

Did I disappoint you
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without
Well it's...

Too late
Tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one, but we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other
One...

Have you come here for forgiveness
Have you come to raise the dead
Have you come here to play Jesus
To the lepers in your head

Did I ask too much
More than a lot
You gave me nothing
Now it's all I got
We're one
But we're not the same
Well we
Hurt each other
Then we do it again
You say
Love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple
Love the higher law
You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on
To what you got
When all you got is hurt

One love
One blood
One life
You got to do what you should
One life
With each other
Sisters
Brothers
One life
But we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other

One...life

One
