It Won't Be Easy

Think
There’s something wrong with all the world and everything
There must be something we can do to change some things
But it won’t be easy, no
It won’t be easy, no
It won’t be easy, no
So I’ll find a way to realign
Go
And search for ways that you can try to change the world
Don’t ever think that all you need is gold and pearls
But it won’t be easy, no
It won’t be easy, no
It won’t be easy, no
So I’ll find a way to realign

What You Want Me To Be

I used to dream about the look in your eyes
A sea of stars in the pale moonlight
And I’d wonder if I’d ever find a way
To build a rocket ship
Of nails and wood
It’s all I’ve got to get me past the moon
‘Cause I know that’s where you like to stay
I don’t wanna have to say a single word
I just want you to pick up on how I feel
And if you take an extra minute
Not like anyone else
You’ll see some things only you can see
That I can be what you want me to be
So I made my way
To the northern pines
With axe in hand and love on my mind
You’re far away but I’ll build a ship for you
‘Cause there’s not a place
I’d rather be
Than outer space in harmony
Because home is where I can see the world with you
I don’t wanna have to say a single word
I just want you to pick up on how I feel
And if you take an extra minute
Not like anyone else
You’ll see some things only you can see
That I can’t be what you want me to be
I don’t wanna have to say a single word
I just want you to pick up on how I feel
And if you take an extra minute
Not like anyone else
You’ll see some things only you can see
That I won’t be what you want me to be

Brilliant Mind

It’s over
Our time is done
When it was time that you leave us
You left with our hearts
But it was just too soon
It just wasn’t right
Maybe one day all the spirits
Reveal to us why
If we could bring you home
If there was more time
To say goodbye
Oh a brilliant mind
So brave and so bold
How could we never have seen
Your aching soul?
But it was just too soon
It just wasn’t right
Maybe one day all the spirits
Reveal to us why
If we could bring you home
If there was more time
To say goodbye

I Would

Listen up my love, I’ve done some nasty things to you
But if I could take them back and change your point of view, I would
You know I would
I just hope it’s not too late to make some peace with you
And I know it’s a long hard road to rebuild with you
But you know I would
You gave so much to me and I let you down
If I could find a way to turn this ship around, I would
You know I would
I just hope it’s not too late to make some peace with you
And I know it’s a long hard road to rebuild with you
But you know I would

The Other Side

We can’t wait ‘cause there’s little time
To build this bridge where the river’s wide
Across the banks I can see your shine
We’ll find a way to see the other side
Some days can be so dark and dull
The sun won’t always shine on you and me
But there’s light inside our hearts & minds
We might just need some help to set it free
But I can’t be one to say the truth is just one way
I can’t be too sure that love is the cure to all our darkest days
But something’s got to give
The pressure’s building in
And it will get worse if we don’t converse so I’ll say
We can’t wait ‘cause there’s little time
To build this bridge where the river’s wide
Across the banks I can see your shine
We’ll find a way to see the other side
And maybe it’s true
The current flowing through might be too strong for one man
So hold my hand through the cold, cold water
We can make it
We can make it, yes we can
But I can’t be one to say the truth is just one way
I can’t be too sure that love is the cure to all our darkest days
But something’s got to give
The pressure’s building in
And it will get worse if we don’t converse so I’ll say
We can’t wait ‘cause there’s little time
To build this bridge where the river’s wide
Across the banks I can see your shine
We’ll find a way to see the other side

Go tell it on the mountain,
Over the hills and everywhere.
Go tell it on the mountain,
To set my people free.
Who's that yonder dressed in red,
Sets my people free?
Who's there yonder dressed in red,
Sets my people free?
I'm beggin'
Who's that yonder dressed in red?
Must be the children that Moses led.
Go tell it on the mountain,
To set my people free.
Go tell it on the mountain,
Over the hills and everywhere.
Go tell it on the mountain,
To set my people free.
Who's there yonder dressed, dressed in white,
Sets my people free?
Who's there yonder, full dressed in white,
Sets my people free?
I'm beggin'
Who's there yonder dressed in white?
Must be the children of the Israelites.
Go tell it on the mountain,
To set my people free.
Go tell it on the mountain,
Over the hills and everywhere.
Go tell it on the mountain,
To set my people free.
Who’s there yonder dressed in blue?
Set my people free
Who’s there yonder dressed in blue?
Set my people free
Who’s there yonder dressed in blue?
Beating the black off my brothers too?
Go tell it on the mountain
To set my people free.
Go tell it on the mountain,
Over the hills and everywhere.
Go tell it on the mountain,
To set my people free.
Go tell it on the mountain,
To set my people free.
Go tell it on the mountain,
To set my people free.
