THERE ARE THINGS YOU CAN’T PREPARE FOR
There are things you can’t prepare for
Things that’ll never be OK
You can try to learn to live with them
But there are things that’ll never be OK
Like the time she tried to kill you
Or the time they left you behind
Or the time they died and left you
Impressions forever imprinted in your mind
Things you shouldn’t‘ve seen
In places you shouldn’t’ve been
Things you can’t prepare for
Things that’ll never be OK
(true story)

SINGING TO MYSELF
Ain't it hard this despair
So much harder when she don't care
Ain't it hard when it takes you
Any time, anywhere
And ain't it hard when you don't know
what to do, where to go
Hard when there's no-one
nothing, no-where
Ain't it hard to sing the blues
In your lonely room.
Hard to be wading
In anger and gloom
I miss friends, miss my room
Miss the sweet afternoon
I don't know where it's goin'
Only see where I've been
And it's so hard this despair
So much harder when she don't care
Hard when it takes you
Any time, anywhere
Walk with me
Hold my hand
Help me believe
To see an end
I don't know where it's going
Only see where I' been
I'm singin' to myself
In my lonely room

WHAT MIGHT COME
I’m so afraid of what might come
and it’s been so long
And I’m gone, I’m gone…

TOMORROW’S ANOTHER DAY
Sittin’ here like the asshole I am
In the shit and the shambles that is my home
Too many things to do
Best just do nothin’ at all
Tomorrow’s another day
Tomorrow I will find my way
Movin’ things from here to there
But there’s no room anywhere
Can’t throw nothin’ away
I might need it some day
Tomorrow’s another day
Tomorrow I will find my way
When the reminder comes I’ll pay
Let ‘em wait another day
Didn’t call the lawyer today
But tomorrow’s another day

SITTING AND THINKING IN MY FAVOURITE SPOT ABOUT THINKING
I’ been sittin' here wonderin' far too long
I’ been sittin' here wonderin' on my own
Thinkin’ 'bout how the time keeps rollin' on
Wonderin' if I'll ever get to where I'm goin'
Scenes fly by all day long
Gettin' jabbed with the bad makin’ it hard to go on
Seein' all that's come and gone
I can't carry it on my own
I like to drive all day to the sun
Don't stop until we reach the sun
Sail, float, dream and drift away
Into you

WAYFARING STRANGER
I’m just a poor, wayfaring stanger
Travellin’ through, this world of woe
And there’s no sickness, toil or danger
In that land, to which I go
I’m goin’ there, to see my father
Goin’ there, no more to roam
I’m only goin’ over Jordan
I’m only goin’ over home
I know dark clouds, will hang around me
I know my way is rough and steep
But beauteous fields lay all around me
Where God’s redeemed his vigil’s keep
I’m goin’ there to see my mother
She said she’d meet me when I come home
I’m only goin’ over Jordan
I’m only goin’ over home

DREAMIN’ OF YOU & ME
Can’t imagine how beautiful you must be
Though I try everyday
Can’t imagine how beautiful you must be
Oh how I wish you’d come up and see me
And I dream of you and me
My head on your breast
I kiss the side of your neck
Can’t imagine how beautiful you must be
Though I try everyday
Can’t imagine how beautiful you must be
Oh how I wish you’d come up and see me

SITTIN’ BY THE STEREO
I’ been sittin’ by the stereo
and I’ been waiting for you to call
I’m just sittin’ by the stereo
and I’m just waitin’ for you to come home
Now I don’t know if I am right or wrong
I don’t know if I am right or gone
I keep sittin by the stereo
And I keep waitin’ for you to come home
Am I right or am I wrong
Am I good or am I gone
Somebody tell me where is my home
Somebody call me on the telephone

All the night long
