NO TURNING BACK (BENNETT/YOUNG)
One star falling through the sky
One planet orbiting
One life travels much too far
Breaking through the atmosphere
There’s no turning back
We’ve gone too far this time
Gave me your heart and I gave you mine
There’s no turning back my love
If my eyes of flesh are closed
It’s only so that I can see
If love is only mortal flesh
The spirit must be guiding me

Stay Out Late (Bennett/Young)
You know it’s easy to please you-deceive you
You’re falling right now to my plan somehow
Your body’s achin’ you’re burning down the sun
Got to get beside you-inside you somehow
I can’t wait-I can’t stay because I know you wanna stay out late
We’re in deep-I can’t sleep because I know you wanna get home late
We’re living right now-the moment is all ours
I saw you last night-your face through the crowd
Your lips were pouting-I’m shouting-across the room
Your eyes betray you-they’re playing our tune
Meet me by the river in the summertime
The beast is howling for his women and wine
My lips are guilty with your silky taste
Your body’s gonna give me a sign

the devil and me (bennett/young)
the devil and me we're the best of friends
the devil and me we just can't pretend
when all your blood is set to burst
the devil in me will set me free i can't be free he can't be me
your makeup on you sprout your horns
alive again since who knows when
all of the pain is in your head
the voodoo doll is painted red you twist the head hear what it said
you thought tonight that we'd be gone
las vegas bound booze on the lawn
this engine's hot or can't you see
we're on the run we're having fun we've come undone here comes the sun
feel the devil chasin' me
just because i have to be
he's now a part of me
my soul too trapped and weak left to defend
the devil won't let me be
too deep inside of me
old rocking chair is all i see
he forces me to do it

One Of A Kind (Bennett/Young)
This was always meant to be
You and I live in this dream
Climbing the mountain won’t be so easy
When we reach the top you’re gonna fly with me
One of a kind, one of a kind-you’ve been on my mind
One of a kind, one of a kind-‘til the end of time
We’re gonna make it one way or another
Our faith will see us through
Our heart and soul are woven together
So glad fate sent me to you

River Runs Dry (Bennett/Young)
Did you want to walk-down the lane alone
I never wanted this broken telephone-memory is fading all over
But life-keeps a- rollin’ on
Oh life-just where we belong
Almost-climbed to the top of the hill
Dreaming of the sun
And the river runs dry-we’ll never know why
stone cold walking out-clocks run out past midnight
done walking round in circles my friend-time stopped while your world was fading
The night-got away from you my again
But night-has a way with you my friend
And now-we’re at the top of the hill-waiting for the sun
And the river runs dry-we’ll never know why
People live ‘til they die-and the river runs dry
Dark side of the moon-our love ones leave too soon-
There’s rising panic in our lives
Willow seems to weep-from the dark side of the street-
We can’t return to our youth

TRAIN SONG (BENNETT/YOUNG)
Used to play with fire when I was a kid, momma said “don’t go out there” daddy said “if you do, don’t say you did” playing at being an engineer taking the corners on two wheels, I pretended to ring the bell- spark and steel my fate was sealed
Racing through this tunnel-there’s a light up ahead-am I headed for glory-or am I already dead
You know the train it keeps a rollin’ along-desire my desire-and it never stops keepin’ on-go higher-take me higher-you know the train it keeps a rollin’ along-desire my desire-and it never stops keepin’ on-the fire-stoke the fire
Climbin’ up this mountain-like the engine that could, racing down the other side a little faster than I should, now my head’s out the window-sweet wind on my face, gonna make to the station on time-this train is never late
Feel the whistle blow, I can hear the whistle blow, got me tied down on the track-feel it vibratin’ under my back, hear the angry whistle blow in the distance-train is tryin’ to kill me or my witness-feel her comin’ down the track-I hear her comin’ I can feel her comin’ I can feel it-feel her comin’ watch out now-stoke the fire-I keep stokin’ the fire

THREE SHADES OF BLUE (BENNETT/YOUNG)
YOU SAY THAT YOU LIKE TO FEEL GOOD-PUT ALL YOUR FAITH IN A LITTLE PILL
KEEP COMING BACK LIKE IT’S YOUR BEST FRIEND-THE SOFT LADY BREAKS DOWN YOUR WILL
ALL YOUR FRIENDS WERE THERE-SO IF YOU’RE NOT HERE THEN YOU’RE NOWHERE
THEY WATCHED YOU SLOWLY SINKING DOWN
THREE SHADES OF BLUE-HANGING OUT WITH NOTHING TO DO
WHAT’S THIS WORLD COMING TO
I KNOW A PLACE-WE CAN GO
THEN LITTLE BLUE WON’T GET YOU THERE-
SO YOU TURN TO THE HORSE HE SAID CLIMB ON MY BACK IF YOU DARE
TAKE YOU TO THE DESERT-I’LL TAKE YOU TO THE SHORE-
LIKE A HORSE WITH NO NAME-YOU’LL BE READY TO SCORE

Hold The Flag
03:30

PEACE AND WAR-LOVE AND LIES
WHEN ALL OUR LIVES ARE DRIFTING
AND HEARTS ARE TRYING TO HIDE
ALL WE SEE-ALL WE SHOW
THEY TELL US WHAT TO THINK
THE THINGS THAT WE SHOULD KNOW
WE COULD HOLD THE FLAG-UNTIL THE LIGHTS GO DOWN
DEATH BOMBS FLYING OVER-YOUNG BODIES DEAD ON THE GROUND
ALL NATIONS SONS-WHO’S LIVES MAY SOON BE OVER
NO TIME TO GATHER THEIR HEARTS-OR LIVE
HATE AND LOVE-LIGHT AND DARK
WHEN ALL THE WORLD’S IN FLAMES
WITH NO IDEAS TO SPARK
IF OUR MINDS-BETRAY OUR HEARTS
CHILDREN ARE ALL BORN TO LOSE
WHEN THERE’S NOWHERE THEY CAN HIDE

BANJO (BENNETT/YOUNG)
My banjo screams for a high drunken life-but I’ll have to check it out with my wife
It’s better than the edge of a knife-my banjo screams for a high drunken life
High lonely bittersweet grin of grief
Went to mexico to become a thief
Senorita says “it’s under the leaf”
She’s glistening under the sun-you’ve got to believe
Well I went out to cali to check out the scene
l.a. was too much glitter and gleam
wound up in a small town a honkey-tonk bar
they were singing and carryin’ on-that’s all that matters to me
well I went to Colorado a rocky mountain high
heard on the news kind-bud was legalized
would you believe I bought it in a store
hit the road and called “I’m comin’ home” about a quarter to nine
pink little pills lined up in a row
got my foot and the gas and it’s thirty below
there’s ghosts on the road all the way back home
stay in and lock the doors disconnect the phone

GOOD TO BE ALIVE (BENNETT/YOUNG)
A STARVING BABY CRIES, A MOTHER SIGHS, MEN KILL AND MEN DIE,
HEARD GOD WAS STILL ALIVE
BUT HE AIN’T TAKIN’ NO CALLS-HE’S LONG OVERDUE
DON’T AGONIZE ABOUT THE PAIN, WHO’S TO FAULT-WHO’S TO BLAME, PRAY TO THE LORD TO STOP THE RAIN, WORSHIP THE SUN-EVERYTIME HE CAME SHINING DOWN ON YOU
ALL THE TO AND FRO-THIS AND THAT-TIT FOR TAT-YOUR POLITICS ARE WHACK-I THINK YOU’RE HALF-CRACKED, YOU KNOW SOMETIMES THERE’S NO GETTING THROUGH
LOSE YOUR FAITH IN THE WHOLE HUMAN RACE, IT’S NOT TOO LATE-QUARTER TO EIGHT-WHY WAIT, TAKE THE SOUTHBOUND TRAIN-OUTTA THIS PLACE AND WAVE GOODBYE TO ALL OF YOU
AND I HEARD THE ANGELS SING
NO-PLEASE DON’T GO, WE’D LIKE YOU TO KNOW
IT’S GOOD TO BE ALIVE-YEAH-FEELS SO GOOD TO BE HEAR WITH YOU
WALKIN’ DOWNTOWN, FEEL THE PRESSURE ALL AROUND, YOUR DECREPIT CITY’S DEAD-GOTTA CRACK IN THE HEAD, PROSTITUTES AND KIDS DEALING DEATH
THERE’S A WHOLE IN THE SKY-EVERYBODY’S GONNA DIE, ARMY-MILK-MONEY-NO CARREER-DON’T WORRY-YOU CAN KILL FOR UNCLE SAM, BUT NOW YOU’RE FEELIN’ HALF DEAD
SCRATCHIN’ THE SURFACE OF THE PAIN INSIDE-DOCTORS SAY YOUR HURTIN’ YOU’RE PROBABLY GONNA DIE BUT HE DON’T KNOW WHEN, IT’S ALL UP TO YOU
ONCE YOU NUMB THE PAIN, YOU CAN’T GET OFF THE TRAIN, ‘CAUSE YOU GOTTA HAVE THE PILLS-WITH A HANDFUL OF BILLS, NOW YOU’RE LYING ON THE FLOOR AND THE ROOMS GONE DARK

WALTZ TO THE WORLD (BENNETT/YOUNG)
You’re clear sky-you’re drowning
Your blue light-is midnight
We vanish-so rapid
Still moving-in shadow
Now-once in your life-you’ll find this light
Now let it shine-waltz to the world
Don’t waste your time-when all will be clear
The sky falls
We’re searching -tomorrow
We’re buried –in sorrow
The light burns-when I burn
In heaven-we’ve fallen
Now-once in your life-you’ll find this light-now let it shine-waltz to the world
Don’t waste your time when all will be clear-the sky falls and then
We go through our lives-most of the time-without any clue-of our lovers mind
Time passes by-with heartache and fear
The sky falls again
We’re angels-eternal
Transcending-from your world
