Singin’ along when your life’s a song
You sing it everyday
Findin’ the key when you’re lost at sea
Will get you on your way
To that place
With a smile on your face
It’s good to be in California
It’s good to be back home
You’ll find them ‘round that coastal town
The California Sound.

Telling You Lies
03:29
|

|
Telling you lies
Don’t ask questions now
Don’t be kind to that mind
That will not blindly kneel and bow
Lookin’ for the truth
All depends in the end
If you’ll turn away your so-called friends
Because they’re telling you lies
And you just got fooled again
Comin’ from someone you look up to
It’s no surprise
And I’m losing my cool again
They’re telling you lies
They’re telling you lies
Don’t be so confused
It’s alright without sight
You’ll never have to really face the truth
The bubble keeps you safe
Locked inside where you hide
You’ll never have to give the facts a try
Because they’re telling you lies
And you just got fooled again
Comin’ from someone you look up to
It’s no surprise
And I’m losing my cool again
They’re telling you lies
They’re telling you lies
It’s all in your perspective
But numbers never lie
With some luck someday you’ll wonder why
Because they’re telling you lies
And you just got fooled again
Comin’ from someone you look up to
It’s no surprise
And I’m losing my cool again
They’re telling you lies
They’re telling you lies

Sometimes you feel crazy
Sometimes you feel low
Sometimes you feel lazy
Sometimes you don’t know
But when life starts pushing you back and you don’t like the way things are
Be still and relax Jack
Take a look at the stars
So just come in
And have the day that should’ve been
‘Cause through our song
We find it’s been there all along
One day you were playin’
But not playin’ around
‘Cause you heard what they’re sayin’
They kept putting you down
But when you start saying things back and you’re not getting very far
Sometimes there’s an answer
If you follow the stars
So just come in
And have the day that should’ve been
‘Cause through our song
We find it’s been there all along
All the things we’ve waited for
And we don’t want to wait anymore
All the chords we used to play
That they don’t want to play anymore
So just come in
And have the day that should’ve been
‘Cause through our song
We find it’s been there all along

It's Never Enough
02:45
|
|||
|
Nothing seems to follow you
And no one takes the lead
All your dreams are now just a fantasy
Someone’s standing next to you
And you can’t seem to breathe
Time to get yourself in a different scene
But it’s never enough
To get a bit of gratitude
It’s never enough
To get a better attitude
Something’s really eating you
And no one’s listening
You can’t talk a fool into empathy
Everything you try to do
Has often gone unseen
Trust and lust are often two different things
But it’s never enough
To get a bit of gratitude
It’s never enough
To get a better attitude

Come Close to Me
03:09
|
|||
|
I can feel the passion you bring
As your eyes are staring at me
And with a little trust
Someday, we could run away together
We could leave or we could stay
But I would rather face the day
Waking up next to you
I know you just want some truth
And I will give you strength
So baby come close to me.
Other girls don’t compare
They’re alright, but you’re right there
You’ll always be in my heart
I know it’s hard to talk about it
We could talk and work it out
Or close our eyes and go all out
Seeing what it becomes
There’s a level where we are one
And I will give you strength
So baby come close to me.
We could leave or we could stay
But I would rather face the day
Waking up next to you
I know you just want some truth
And I will give you strength
So baby come close to me.

Summertime in the sunshine is such a lonely place
Every song that you sang got lost along the way
Oh, but that was ok, for a while
Call me soft, call me sunshine, and file me away
Stories told about icons, who did you meet today
And how much did you pay for a smile
As you turn to the work you put in
It’s just not a sweet memory
No one’s fault but you just don’t fit in
You can feel the energy
Is it you or is it me?
Summertime in the sunshine waving across the bay
To the one’s who can see you, but just can’t hear you play
Because they don’t have a taste for your style.

Rise
03:18
|

|
All the things we’re waiting for we cannot find
If you don’t want any more leave it behind
When the room is closing in open your eyes
Taste the fear and smell the sin within their lies
Cleanse your soul with love and watch it rise
Everything you have to give you’ll get in kind
And as patience settles in transcending time
Find the mantra from within your deep blue mind
Dwell into the mystery and cross the line
Cleanse your soul with love and watch it rise
Watch it rise
Watch it rise

Runnin' Away

The bar is way too high
For her to qualify
He’s gonna have to try to be cool
Or he’ll never get through
Yeah, he’s gotta be cool
Or he’ll never get through
So let him roll the dice ‘til he’s lonely
‘Cause you can’t put a price on his needs
She may look real nice
But she’s only gonna make him wanna leave
There just ain’t no time
For her to waste her life
She’s gonna have to try to be cool
Or she’ll never get through
Yeah, she’s gotta be cool
Or she’ll never get through
So let her roll the dice ‘til she’s lonely
‘Cause you can’t put a price on her needs
He may look real nice
But he’s only gonna make her wanna leave
Run, runnin’ away
From something that ain’t supposed to be
Run, runnin’ away from a dream
Run, runnin' away
From something that ain’t supposed to be
So let them roll the dice ‘til they’re lonely
‘Cause you can’t put a price on their needs
They may look real nice
But they’re only gonna make you wanna leave

Some Kind of King
03:06
|

How do you activate freedom?
Wavin’ your guns in the street
You come into town and shut the place down
Acting like some kind of king
Thought you knew everything
A gun is a toy for a stupid cowboy
To shoot at what doesn’t agree
Someday it’s gonna be me.
Why are so many believers?
It’s just a show on TV
He tips his big hat and I guess that is that
‘Cause then he shoots everybody
It’s sure not what I want to be
I know a few fools who think that it’s cool
Without lookin’ past what they see
Someday they’re gonna get me.
Acting like some kind of king
Thought you knew everything
It’s up to you what a gun’s gonna do
To shoot at what doesn’t agree
Someday it’s gonna be me.

At the End of the Day
04:16

Every little celebration left along the way
Gave a little satisfaction to get us through the day
Morning light and late-night sunsets and everything between
Finds a way to stay together if you know what I mean
But every time we get together
And try to talk it through
Love will find a way
From me to you
At the end of the day (I’m still yours)
At the end of the day (That’s for sure)
‘Cause when the morning comes4
We’re gonna get us some
At the end of the day.
In the park at dark together can be a special thing
All alone in perfect weather we find some harmony
Ocean liner, stars behind her, drifting through the haze
Arriving at our destination, finding our own way
But if the breeze just knocks you over
No matter what you do
Love can find its way
From me to you
At the end of the day (I’m still yours)
At the end of the day (That’s for sure)
‘Cause when the morning comes4
We’re gonna get us some
At the end of the day.
We’ll make it last forever
So selflessly
We’ve got what everybody needs
At the end of the day (I’m still yours)
At the end of the day (That’s for sure)
‘Cause when the morning comes4
We’re gonna get us some
At the end of the day.

Was it really just that sort of charm?
Or did you think that it might break your heart?
We could have given it a brand-new start
Between Us
What were you looking for in my eyes?
An edgy person or a handsome guy?
Is this the truth or is it all a lie
Between Us
But it’s just so sad
‘Cause something’s gone inside of you
If I ever brought it up again
Would you only want to be my friend?
Does this really have to be the end
Between Us
Between Us
