Lyrics "I guess I call it home"

Sending You My Tune


Out on the road and playing at night
It gives me a feeling that’s wrong and right
Cause singing my songs it’s true
Is heaven for me to do, but I miss you

We’re doing a song that would make you dance
I close my eyes you’re here in a glance
The band and I, we’re alone
But some lines can send me right back home

Chorus:
Pick up the words, they’re coming to you soon
Feel the lines, I’m sending you my tune
Come on baby, I’m singing you my song
Send you my voice, till whole my sound is gone

I need this singing, it makes me fly
It gives me a spirit that never can die
Music that says goodbye
to limits and fills the sky, so high

Chorus:

Someday the time come that I will stay home
Too old to travel and pain in my bones
But my lady and I my friend
Will still sing my songs and listen then

Chorus:


Bad Day

Bad day, not fade away, never realised the pain
Eyes closed, so I’m alone, wish it ever was the same,
but it never happens

In this train, I’m on my way, maybe got a glimpse of you
But every time, I’m passing by, there’s nothing more that I can do,
but it is over

She will never be the one she was before
All these mem’ries turn to sadness can’t ignore
Now I’m devastated, alone and I am fainting
Wishing you’d come back somehow, but it never happens

Bad day, not fade away, never realised the pain
Eyes closed, so I’m alone, wish it ever was the same,
but it never happens

 

When The Wind Wakes Me Up To Travel On


When the wind wakes me up to travel on
When the wind makes me feel there’s something wrong
I’ve forgotten my dreams, and my visions are gone
When the wind wakes me up to travel on
When the wind wakes me up to travel on

When the road is a way I never walked
When my words are a way I never talked
When my faith is in distance and never shows up
When the road is a way I never walked
When the road is a way I never walked

I must leave all this madness in my eyes
I must leave all the doubts that fill my life
When the sun’s gone away, and I hate the break of day
I must leave all this madness in my eyes
And I will leave all this madness in my eyes

And I will fly from the sorrow, I’ll fly from the pain
And return with a strength you can’t explain
And I will fly from the sorrow, I’ll fly from the cold
And come back with a line that’s never told

When the wind wakes me up to travel on
When the wind makes me feel there’s something wrong
I’ve forgotten my dreams and my visions are gone
When the wind wakes me up to travel on
When the wind wakes me up to travel on

 

A Sioux (cry to the sun)


The wind can call your name, the prairie is a home
The earth can hear you weep, the mountains never sleep
For there is live, and love in everything, each living thing

The eagle holds the soul, and the wisdom of my father
His wings show the freedom, to search the sun again
Let my heart find him everywhere I can, that wise man

I am a Sioux, cry to the sun, to call my father and feel we are one
To feel the spirit bringing that man, to hear him telling once again,
to feel again…

The years can make a change, each winter predicts
Like white men who’d arrange, what worthy really is for them
They’ve lost all their pride in Wounded Knee, but won’t kill me

Cause father, the soul, the soul is always free
Of the strong Dakota Sioux, with roots they will not see
No respect, they took of all our land, our friend the land, our friend

I am a Sioux, cry to the sun, to call my father and feel we are one
To feel the spirit filling the sky and wonder why our dreams did die
I am a Sioux, I am a Sioux, I feel the spirit filling the sky and wonder why…
And crying…why..?

 

A Dream That’s So Alive


Just a rambler, just a lover of the sky
They call me passenger in dreams and lullabies
Just a stranger with a picture in his head
He can’t forget, he won’t forget

Well I may seem crazy, may seem foolish for the rest
Sure I’ve never been someone they called the best,
But there are few who got a dream that’s so alive,
The dreams that I’ve, are so alive

Chorus:
See the river, it keeps running on and on
Never stops, never dries out, it is strong
See that star, see it shine up in the night
It is far, but never out of sight

In the country where I come from nature’s gone
In the hearts of people there, the money’s stong
And who is wise, who’s clever in the end ?
What life ever meant, who understands ?

Chorus:

Just a rambler, just a lover coming by
I feel the earth still move and see the golden sky
A fire that will burn and that will last
Oh I am blessed, that spirit lasts

Chorus:

 

Love Music And A Rose


Home seems just an empty house, a bed is cold again
Reminds you of the days you knew back when
She was all you needed her to be, and she was close
Love was here, music and a rose

Sundays walking in the woods, late at night the wine
The simple things you’d proudly say, they’re mine
Days alone, seemed far away, never it seemed near
But now comes out the emptiness and fear

Chorus:
Life can change, things can grow, and you’ve heard it even so
But there’s something between deal with it and know
Life can run, life can rest, and you wanna pick the best
But something in this picture will not last

She could fill the lines up, when you ran out of words
You knew what could make her shine or hurt
Though you were as different as the sea and land can be
It was good, it felt heavenly

Chorus:

Home seems just an empty house, a bed is cold again
Reminds you of the days you knew back when
She was all you needed her to be, and she was close
Love was here, music and a rose
Love was here, music and a rose

 

Setting Sun


Setting sun fills my mind in the evening
Golden rays falling down on the plains
Come to rest now the daylight is leaving
And the warm setting sun chased the rain

Hold my hand, hold me now, now I need it
Just the silence that’s filling the air
While we stay here tonight we could feel it
All the peace that two people could share

Close our eyes while we sit and we wonder
How the time can take precious things away
It has been to long ago, that we felt like this we know
Let us promise that we take more time to go

Setting sun fills my mind in the evening
Golden rays falling down on the plains
Come to rest now the daylight is leaving
And the warm setting sun chased the rain

 

Between Two Brothers


He is ten, the youngest one is eight
See them run, they can’t wait
They are running to the football field nearby
See that light in their eyes

They are brothers and they feel they are the best
Just the two of them, could beat the rest
It’s something between words like swank and pride
Something that they dreamed about at night

There’s something between these brothers, they are friends
A feeling from the start that never went
Playing games and laughing at the jokes, they’re joined as one
Growing up together they have fun
There’s something between these brothers in the sun

Till they were about eighteen years old
They spent most days together it is told
Would this bond be broken on a day
Could you think it’d slip away

There’s something between these brothers, they are friends
A feeling from the start that never went
Talking in the night, sleeping much to late
Cause the things they had to share just couldn’t wait
There’s something between these brothers that was faith

Years went by, they live in different homes
Different places, on their own
But listen, the spirit’s still alive
When you need it, you can feel that it will rise

There’s something between these brothers that can’t die
There’s something between these brothers makes me fly
The roads, they may split, but the roots, they will send
You down to where the mem’ries never end
Where two boys are still playing hand in hand
Where two grown ups are home until the end
There’s something between these brothers, they are friends
Something between these brothers, they are friends
Something between these brothers…They’re best friends

 

I Guess I Call It Home


When the road’s to long and empty, and my feet can’t walk no more
There’s a space inside my heart, that shows a door
And when I close my eyes I smile, cause I see her for a while
It’s a song and I guess I call it home

And I’m somehow filled again, with an energy and then
It won’t leave me, it keeps going by my side
And it’s a fire in a glance, it’s a place the stars can dance
It’s belong and I guess I call it home

Chorus:
I call lit home, cause I can show there the way I really am
I call it home, cause I can grow there, to love and understand
I guess I call it home

Like the sea can sleep in time, like the nightingales will rhyme
There’s a peace in a room that makes me warm
And when we talk about our day, as the time can slip away
There’s a song and I guess I call it home

Chorus:

And when the blue turns in grey
There’s a feeling coming on
In our night there is a sunlight that will come
There’s a feeling like a sunlight that will come

When the night is gone I’d say; never take your love away
In your arms I need a place I’d always come
And when the romance will not fade, the light is stronger than the shade
There’s a song and I guess I call it home

Chorus:

 

Running Down The Road


Well I’m running without stopping down the road
I left my worries, left my luggage, my heavy load
Left the gossip and the papers, left the daily news
Left the smog and daily rut and sad, sad city blues
Now I’m running without stopping down the road

They call me silly Sam, they call me names at my door
They call me weird John, they call me stupid Frank and more
Because I don’t know their king
But I know it’s wrong an addicted thing
They call me names, but never the right one, at my door

Chorus:
Now I’m running all alone to break away
I’m running to escape the cold, cold day

They say time is money, feelings let them die
They say build a speedway, let the country fools cry
They say loving trees and mountains is a drunken song
Come on get your things together, you won’t make it long
Time is money, feelings let them die

Country roads, show me the was
Country roads, show me the way

They want to rope me in with my back against the wall
They want to change me, they want to see my visions fall
But I will shake them off my heart
They will never ever touch that deepest part
They want to rope me in with my back against the wall

Chorus:

Well I’m running without stopping down the road
I left my worries, left my luggage, my heavy load
Left the gossip and the papers, left the daily news
Left the smog and daily rut and sad, sad city blues
Now I’m running without stopping down the road
Now I’m running without stopping down the road

Country roads, show me the way
Country roads, show me the way

 

One More Day


I was looking at the bright light
All alone in the freezing cold
My mind was running wild, it kept me warm
The stars, it’s light, shining bright,
reminds me of my home
Brings me back the place where I belong

Nowadays I’m drifting
Alone ain’t got no home
Get some rest before the break of dawn
Maybe in the summer sun
a turning point will come
And I will be forever with my love

Chorus:
Sir is there a medicine for a life like this ?
One that gets me up to go on strong
Sir is there a remedy for a fading heart ?
It hurts so bad the pain tears me apart
One more day and it goes better
One more night, a light will shine
One more day, it really matters
One more night, one more day

I was searching for the answers
to wait another day
Dreams may end, weakness fills my sould
Maybe in the summer sun
a turning point will come
And I will be forever with my love

Chorus:

 

My Promise, My Love


Hold my baby, my own precious girl
Hold it tight in her little world
Open face, shining bright as can be
Looking at me

Chorus:
Here’s my promise, my love
Always rising above
The storms may shake and the sun may go
But this love will ever show

Make me dance with your wonderful smile
It can make me lift up a while
It’s that sound and that glimpse in your eyes
Feels like paradise

Chorus:

My last lullaby today
It’s time to slip away
Just whisper my prayer up to
Heaven for you

Chorus:
