Borders & Beyond Lyrics (2014)

Track 1: Beyond Borders

Take a breathe of fresh air and close your eyes
Open your heart before we start
There's a story in me and there's one in you
We live and let live, let's start anew

We've been running around 
In circles every day
Ignorance, it is not bliss 
It leaves too many things amiss

These things, we don't see
Hidden in our history 
Don't ever let them say
We can't love beyond borders

Borders and Beyond

Come a little closer, I want to hear you speak
Of your loves and your losses and the things you seek
Could there be a road that we've both walked on
That golden thread of life that we depend on


Though our homes are far apart
Where we're heading is the same
Not to walk there side by side
Would be a shame

We've been running around 
In circles every day
Ignorance, it is not bliss 
It leaves too many things amiss

These things, we don't see
Hidden in our history 
Don't ever let them say
We can't love beyond borders

Borders and Beyond

To love beyond borders...

Track 2: Surrender
You say you want to change the world
Well, you can start with mine
You can't turn over every stone
But you can roll away, the rock before my door

Be the hurricane, blow my world apart
Be the quiet light after a gusty night
Be the wetland, drain the dirt from my soil
Be the cool shadow when the sun lies low

I've been delivered 
And I'm waiting on you
You can be the earth, the wind, the fire
You can be the water

I've been delivered
Afraid of change
And now I stand alone before you
And  I surrender

Be the earthquake, shift the core of my existence
Send my thoughts afloat, to places beautifully remote
Be the ocean into which I can flow
Force myself into, only to peacefully dissolve

I've been delivered 
And I'm waiting on you
You can be the earth, the wind, the fire
You can be the water

I've been delivered
Afraid of change
And now I stand alone before you
And  I surrender

I surrender

Track 3: Keep on Keeping on

There's a wind coming
and it's coming from ahead
I want to turn around and go back
to where I came from instead

But somebody said "No, Kid!
You gotta keep on keepin' on!
'Cause everybody knows where they come from
but not where they belong"

So I take a step left, I take a step right
But I keep on doing wrong
For every wrong I do, I try to do a right
But when the wind keeps coming stronger
and I feel I can't go on
I take a walk down the street to the place where all
the hopeless people meet

And it's one drink, 2 drink, 3 drinks oh
and we sing us a song!
It's 4 drinks, 5 drinks, 6 drinks oh
and I feel like I belong!
And I don't want to go back home
where I'll lie in bed alone
With all those thoughts and all those fears
and worries in my head

So I "Cheers!" to this, I "Cheers!" to that
I "Cheers!" to any old thing
And when I wake in the morning with a heavy head
I still hear those fellows sing:

"Oh hey, you gotta keep on keepin' on!
Oh hey, you gotta keep on being strong!
Oh hey, you know we're all in the same boat!
Oh hey, you gotta keep on keepin' on!"

There's a wind coming
and it's coming from ahead
I thought the storm was gone
but here a new one comes along

So I take a step left, I take a step right
But I keep on doing wrong
For every wrong I do, I try to do a right
But when the wind keeps coming stronger
and I feel I can't go on
I take a walk down the street to the place where all
the hopeless people meet

And it's 1 prayer, 2 prayers, 3 prayers oh

And we sing us a song!

And it's 4 prayers, 5 prayers, 6 prayers, oh

And I feel like I belong!

And I don't want to go back home

Where I'll lie in bed alone

With all those thoughts and all those fears

and worries in my head

So it's "Amen!" to this "Amen!" to that

"Amen!" to any old thing

And when I wake in the morning with a heavy head

I still hear that preacher sing:

"Oh hey, you gotta keep on keepin' on!
Oh hey, you gotta keep on being strong!
Oh hey, you know we're all in the same boat!
Oh hey, you gotta keep on keepin' on!"


Track 4: Rollercoaster

Your moods are dark and hungry and it tears me apart
I hold my heart ready to be slain
You turn your back to easily and you feel no pain
Don't even look to see my heart bleeding in vain

So I ride you like a rollercoaster
Going up, going down 
I think I've lost my hold on you while
going around

Your days are dark and lonely and it takes you away
I try to capture you each time before its too late
I never succeed, always somehow in the wrong
You expect me to understand what you never say

So I ride you like a rollercoaster
Going up, going down 
I think I've lost my hold on you while
going around

Wait until the fire goes out

Then I come back for more

Track 5: One day

I remember when we met we were young, we were free
we were beautiful
And you caught my eye and I caught yours on one 
summer night

We fooled around without making sounds 
about forever
We let it play out and we said
that we'd still be friends

Since then I have seen you fall in and out of love
I have seen you up and down, I have seen you fall
I have seen your heart broken, I have seen you let some hearts go
Could it be that you love me honey, and you don't even know?

I remember when we met you were young, you were free
You were beautiful
I couldn't keep my mind, I couldn't keep my eyes 
of you
But I was foolish, and I was reckless and my heart was wild
So I let you go I don't know why
I went fooling around

Since then I have seen you fall in and out of love
I have seen you up and down, I have seen you fall
I have seen your heart broken, I have seen you let some hearts go
Could it be that you love me honey, and you don't even know?

One day, One day, we'll be together

One day, One day

Track 6: Country King

Cheap motels and cigarettes
Booze, old women and sticky sweat
Traveling light with his guitar
Fueling up in small town bars

He's the country king
always on the road
To the world he sings 
from deep down below

Always looking for that stroke of luck
His one eye on the past, the other shut
He's got crows feet reaping havoc on his face
His old body can't keep up with the pace

He's the country king
Racing against time
On those melodies he rides
Chasing the sublime

He wrote a song in my bed
Still rings in my head
That, and the look on his face
As he left me all alone
just me and that song
In my bed

He's living the dream in the shade of light
He's faking life in the dark, dark night
He's got a pocket full of songs about love and loss
But these days the music just ain't enough

He's the country king
Holding out for love
He gathers it like stones
But the load ain't enough

He wrote a song in my bed
Still rings in my head
That, and the look on his face
As he left me all alone
just me and that song
In my bed

He's the country king

always on the road

To the world he sings

from deep down below

below

below

Track 7: This Space

I liked you, since the first time we met
Was it something you did, or something you said?

But oh this space...I cannot move through
So that I can get to you
Oh this space, I want to move through
So that I can get to you

You like me, you said so late last night
When you had too much wine, and a girl by your side

But oh this space, still seems to be
too wide and far to get to me
Oh this space, I want to move through
So that I can get to you

You say you've burned your fingers one too many times
I can tell you I have once or twice
Living is loving, and if that is true
We've got to break through this space, so I can get to you

I can get to you...

Oh this space, it cannot be
Too wide and far, to get to me
Oh this space, we've got to move through
So that I can get to you

I can get to you...

Track 8: Flower and Song

They say all that's left
Are flowers and sad songs
Where the wise men
and warriors used to be

They say we're like spring grass
We come only to sleep
Oh like the spring grass
Only to dream

They say the earth is the place
of the fleeting moment

But 

The're a million fire lighters in the sky
A million layers of earth beneath our feet
A million precious moments as we blink our eyes
Heaven is nowhere
Heaven is everywhere
Come on and let it shine

So rain down on me
All those fresh cut flowers
Rain down on me
All those beautiful songs
Rain down on me
All your unanswered questions
Rain down on me
All your good and your wrongs

For you know the earth is the place
Of the fleeting moment

and

The're a million fire lighters in the sky
A million layers of earth beneath our feet
A million precious moments as we blink our eyes
No answers needed here
They are everywhere

So I erect my drum
Assemble my friends, aya!
We paint with flowers
With songs give colour!

I erect my drum
Give shade to those who live on earth
We'll dance abundantly 
in this book of paintings!

We won't flower in vain
We won't flower in vain

Track 9: Other side of Goodbye

Speak to me one more time
Can you give me some peace of mind
Are you free of longing there
Have all your questions disappeared?

Do you think of me there at all
Do you hear when my heart calls?

Show me the other side of goodbye
Show me the other side of goodbye

'Cause I stopped believing

And I do not understand

This hole that you've left behind

Can mean no good to any man

I see you everywhere

and then I find its not you

I want to tell you stories

of all the silly things that I do

Show me the other side of goodbye

Show me where you go after you die

'Cause I pray at night
and I wish on shooting stars
That you would visit me somehow
That you would tend to these scars

But there is only silence
and it is unbreakable and stern
Tell me that you're free of this
Show me your world, I want to learn

Why should I wait?!
Is this really the cross that we bear?
A little old punishment
oh, for surviving?!

Show me the other side
Is it light like a feather, is it free?
You know it would make life
It would make life so much easier for me

If you show me the other side of goodbye
If you show me the other side of goodbye
Show me the other side of goodbye
Show me where you go after you die

Track 10: Wild fire

I never thought that there would ever be
Another song about you coming out of me
But here I go again, a little rant and raving
Yet again I'll sing a song and yet again, you'll play along

Yes I know, got to let this go
I've got to take control

But baby you're a wild fire
and I'm the wind that always gets you higher
No matter how fast I run
You're always licking at my heals
I always stop, so I can feel you

Oh, ain't this a tragic affair
You only have to look at me
to get me down on my knees
I thought I was headstrong and I'd keep it all
wrapped inside
It's only when I write a song
You come along and haunt me

Yes I know, got to let this go
I've got to take control

But baby you're a wild fire
and I'm the wind that always gets you higher
No matter how fast I run
You're always licking at my heals
I always stop, so I can feel you

Oh, can't someone come and rid me of this disease

Oh, can't someone else come sweep me of my feet

Yes I know, I've got to let this go

I've got to take control

You're just a fantasy

A wall around me

Behind you lies the whole world

But baby you're a wild fire
and I'm the wind that always gets you higher
No matter how fast I run
You're always licking at my heals
I always stop, so I can feel you

Track 11: Illusions

I'm not ashamed of my illusions

They show me what I want

They show me what I'm scared of

When things get rough

I'm not ashamed of my illusions

They speak for me when I can't

They bring me to my knees

But only if it's needed

So yeah my head spins honey

and I know it spins real fast

Don't worry babe, it won't spin loose

and splatter all over this place

'Cause in my spinning head

are all my silly illusions

And baby their tied down to the drawing card

They're tightly bound to my heart

I'm not ashamed of my illusions

These bridges that I cross

I take my time on them

Till some random day comes

I'm not ashamed of my illusions

They keep me warm in the night

Until I finally face the truth

And it feels alright

So yeah my head spins honey

and I know it spins real fast

Don't worry babe, it won't spin loose

and splatter all over this place

'Cause in my spinning head

are all my silly illusions

And baby their tied down to the drawing card

They're tightly bound to my heart

And home is where the heart is

Although we know it sometimes leaves and drifts astray
Yeah home is where the heart is
Only to come back home some day

Only to come back home again, 
On some rainy day!

Track 12: Find your light

So you’re stuck in a rut
And you feel lost in the dark
(What you gonna do?)

So you love someone
Who doesn't love you back
(What you gonna do?)

And you thought you’d be
Somewhere else by now
(What you gonna do?)

You feel so lonely
You’re invisible
(What you gonna do?)


Find your light (This world it is a big stage)
Find your light (There’s no escaping the curtain call)
Find your light (You're one of a kind)
Find your light (You've gotta step out and find your light)


So you’re walking in circles
Like a rat in a maze
(What you gonna do?)

You’re future’s a haze
And you don’t have control
(What you gonna do?)

No one’s got your back
And you don’t know who you are
(What you gonna do?)

You find that you speak
but your voice don’t travel far
(What you gonna do?)

Find your light (This world it is a big stage)
Find your light (There’s no escaping the curtain call)
Find your light (You're one of a kind)
Find your light (You've gotta step out and find your light)

So you’re tired and you've lost your zest for life
You can’t find the words, you’re so misunderstood
Your habits they keep you down but you’re afraid of change
You procrastinate, repress your pain
Again and again, again and again


Find your light, find your light


Track 13: If I were a song

If I were a song
Would you take me on the road
If I were a song
Would you know me word for word

If I were a song
Would you play me to your friends
If I were a song
Would I be ringing in your head

Would I make you calm
Or would I make you want to dance
Would I take your mind to far away places
Would I make you laugh
or would I make you want to cry
Would I take away those bad thoughts from your mind

So sway with me, play me
Love me if you can
Listen to my melody 
riding on the wind
Floating by your window
as free as a bird
Waiting, anxiously waiting
Only to be heard
Only to be heard
By you

If I were a song
I would love your whistle
If I were a song
I'd know every tap of your foot
If I were a song
I would sleep in your heart
If I were a song
I would find you in the dark

I would make you calm
and I would make you want to dance
I would take your mind to far away places
I would make you laugh and help you cry
if it is needed
I would take away those bad thoughts from your mind

So sway with me, play me
Love me if you can
Listen to my melody 
riding on the wind
Floating by your window
as free as a bird
Waiting, anxiously waiting
Only to be heard
Only to be heard
By you
