Step Into The Light

What you try to hide is never really hidden
But you know that don’t you?
Behind the lies, you dance around the truth Until your legs can’t hold you
Remember what I told you:
I will hold you steady
Baby, till your heart is ready
I will hold you right
If you step into the light
Passing down the road
I wander by the river where we waltzed together
Though I feel alone
There’s something in the memory that shines like treasure
Those words, they last forever:
I will hold you steady
Baby, till your heart is ready
I will hold you right
If you step into the light
See you and I are strangers here
In a way we’ll never lose this fear
But you’d never want to lose it, dear
I will hold you steady
Baby, till your heart is ready
I will hold you right
I will hold you steady
Babe, I know your heart ain’t ready
But I will hold you tight
Just you step into the light
Still you try to hide
You’re looking round for comfort in the arms that hold you
You’ll look far and wide
You’ll dance around the truth until your legs can’t hold you
Remember what I told you

Dance Tonight

In a bar, by the fire
Where the regulars sat drinking half and halfs
Back then, back a while
When the floor was kept clean and the place well-staffed
Now sits a quiet couple
With a couple heavy bags
The waiter wanders over
And he meets their weary glance
What’s it gonna be
What’s it gonna be tonight?
Well I’ll take a beer, she’ll take a whisky
Lager on tap, nothing risky
We just wanna dance
We just wanna dance tonight
There’s a few broken lights
Yeah the place has seen better days and nights
Still the young waiter tries
To keep it going and keep it alright
He knows of all the stories
That the walls hold in their past
Of famous bands, famous brawls
And flourishing romance
He wonders
What’s it gonna be
What’s it gonna be tonight?
Maybe he’ll take a beer, she’ll take a whisky
Lager on tap, nothing risky
They’ll ask me “What’s the finest malt you have?”
Yeah he’ll take a beer, she’ll take a whisky
We’ll turn up the tunes, push back the seats
Maybe have a dance
Maybe have a dance tonight
I’ll take a beer, she’ll take a whisky
Lager on tap, nothing risky
We just wanna dance
We just wanna dance tonight
I’ll take a beer, she’ll take a whisky
Lager on tap, nothing risky
Tell me, what’s the finest malt you have?
I’ll take a beer, she’ll take a whisky
Turn up the tunes, push back the seats
We just wanna dance
We just wanna dance
We just wanna dance
We just wanna dance
We just wanna dance
We just wanna dance tonight

Country Mile
04:26

I’ve been thinking ‘bout the west
Been dreaming of the coastline sunsets
And I’ve been thinking about us
Wondering if the time has come yet
Remember how we said we’d always love to go there
Remember how the thought just made you smile
Well baby, don’t you think that we should pack our bags and
Leave this town a while
Drive a country mile
A country mile
A country mile
At night, you take the empty roads and drive
Till you hit the potholes
Oh you’ll feel them
But I know that you don’t care
As long as we can make it there
There’s no complaining
Remember how we said we’d always love to try it
Remember how we planned it for a while
Well somewhere we went wrong but we could take this chance
I’d love to see that smile
Let’s drive a country mile
A country mile
Oh take me to the open sky
We’ll sit and watch the weather as it passes by
It’s time to leave the lights behind
Lie down and count the stars on a pitch black night
Remember how we said we’d always love to go there
Remember how the thought just made you smile
Well baby, don’t you think that we should pack our bags and
Leave this town a while
Let’s drive a country mile
A country mile
Drive a country mile
A country mile

I Will Go
07:21

I will go, I will wander
I will tear this heart away
And my love, where you find her
Tell her there to stay
Far I’ll go, far I’ll wander
To this road there is no end
Tell my dear that e’er I’ll mind her
Till we meet again
How’s it going?
It’s been too long
Kind of you to meet me here
See an old friend off on his way
Catch a drink down by the pier
Long I knew this day would come
Still the coming seems so soon
Ne’er feels right to leave this town
Even if the work is good
I will go, I will wander
I will tear this heart away
And my love, where you find her
Tell her there to stay
Far I’ll go, far I’ll wander
To this road there is no end
Tell my dear that e’er I’ll mind her
Till we meet again
Lost in one mind, stuck in two
As the boat leaves Mallaig bay
Watch a seabird catch the breeze
As the red sun lowers its gaze
Soon the stars will take their turn
Shining still for all to see
As I journey, may I learn
Sometimes space means harmony
I will go, I will wander
I will tear this heart away
And my love, where you find her
Tell her there to stay
Far I’ll go, far I’ll wander
To this road there is no end
Tell my dear that e’er I’ll mind her
Till we meet again
