Good Intentions 03:05
lyrics
buy track
I wonder if I wasted all this time Marching round in circles, nevermind I wish I could say I planned it this way But it's not the truth At the end of the day things fell into place Like they tend to do Guess I learned a simple lesson If I must confess I can't live on good intentions Though I try my best It's weird how sometimes passion is a curse Often a distraction from the work Passion will fade, find what remains A constant thread A hope and a dream, a pen and these strings My daily bread Guess I learned a simple lesson If I must confess I can't live on good intentions Though I try my best I can't live on good intentions I can't live on good intentions I can't live on good intentions I can't live on good intentions

Someday 03:46
lyrics
buy track
Someday you won't wanna hold my hand Would rather not spend time with your old man But until then we'll play pretend that time stands still Someday you will look for love and find it On that day I promise I won't mind it You deserve all that the world can give Sing and dance, laugh and play Chase the sun, embrace the rain Hard to see, safe to say We are in the good ol' days Someday you may go off to college Or travel 'round the world seeking knowledge Promise that you'll call me back at least once in a while Someday you will know your dream and chase it Realize that life is what you make it Enjoy the ride, but don't lose sight of now Sing and dance, laugh and play Chase the sun, embrace the rain Hard to see, safe to say We are in the good ol' days Sing and dance, laugh and play Chase the sun, embrace the rain Hard to see, safe to say We are in the good ol' days

They Say 02:16
lyrics

They say don't get attached Fate pours the fuel, life lights a match They say we must adapt Well I broke that rule but I'm learning fast I kinda like the open road It doesn't matter where we go At least there's hope in the unknown They say it's a better match Well I've come to terms, but I might look back They say there's a better path Well we can't commit 'cause nothing ever lasts I kinda like the open road It doesn't matter where we go At least there's hope in the unknown

Cedar Song 03:31
lyrics
buy track
There once was a cedar tree That watched over my family Clothed in her majesty The birds sing her praise She once was a little sprout A century has worn her out I often sit and think about All she has seen Stand tall lonely one We both know that life can be hard Stand tall lonely one Hold no contempt in your heart She has seen the lightning flash Held on through the avalanche She has felt the fire and axe Knock on her door She holds up a mountainside A burden somehow held in stride I have never heard her cry The Lord knows she should Stand tall lonely one We both know that life can be hard Stand tall lonely one Hold no contempt in your heart She has seen us laugh and play Cry and yell and waste away Watched me dig more than one grave She knows how it feels She has seen the children grow Having children of their own She has seen the elders go Back to the soil Stand tall lonely one We both know that life can be hard Stand tall lonely one Hold no contempt in your heart

Dare I Say 04:31
lyrics
buy track
I've never been so exhausted The day is done but the work is still piling up Can barely move if I'm honest Even still let the music fill me up Follow me for a ride My tank is full, it won't run dry Chase me till I'm 85 Won't catch me dead or alive Dare I say not a thing that can bring me down Dare I say not a thing that can bring me down Dare I say not a thing that can bring me down Dare I say not a thing that can bring me down There's a list with my name on it It tells me every single thing I got to do today It makes me anxious if I'm honest I know you can relate let the music fill you up Follow me for a ride My tank is full, it won't run dry Chase me till I'm 85 Won't catch me dead or alive Dare I say not a thing that can bring me down Dare I say not a thing that can bring me down Dare I say not a thing that can bring me down Dare I say not a thing that can bring me down Break my heart, I'll beat my chest Beat so hard I'll create breath Breathe so deep there's no room left Sing so loud I know you hear me Break my fingers, break my wrists Hold me close or kiss my lips Make me poor or make me rich I'll sing until no pain exists Follow me for a ride My tank is full, it won't run dry Chase me till I'm 85 Won't catch me dead or alive Dare I say not a thing that can bring me down Dare I say not a thing that can bring me down Dare I say not a thing that can bring me down Dare I say not a thing that can bring me down

If I Had Only 03:42
lyrics
buy track
If I had only one dollar left Stumbled on something worth so much less If something gave meaning but cost all I had I'd trade my one dollar and the clothes off my back Wake! Wake! My only mistake was thinking that I lost it all Wake! Wake! My only mistake was thinking that I knew it all If I had only one more day left Would I feel pity, would I object Though every reason I'd have to complain Kicking and screaming would be such a waste Wake! Wake! My only mistake was thinking that I lost it all Wake! Wake! My only mistake was thinking that I knew it all Take it all, take it all Take my life and prune the branches Give it all, give it all Give me life in all its madness Take it all, take it all Take my life and prune the branches Give it all, give it all Give me life in all its madness
