Lyrics

Picture
If our dreams don’t come true 
​

I’ve been walking around this city
Feeling down about you
Since I got back from the troubles
I can’t find a trace of you
Well they said I wouldn’t feed you
Or buy you fancy shoes
But the things that I stole for me, I stole for you
Forgive me baby, if our dreams don’t come true

I was standing on the platform
When I saw her walking by
All tongue-tied and shackled
To a new man by her side
She was nothing to me darling
Just something I had to do
And the love that I gave to her, I’d give to you
Forgive me baby, if our dreams don’t come true

There was a light over the hillside
When I first set eyes on you
Something waiting past the corners
Oh so innocent and so true
Could we get back to it darling?
Start anew?
And the things that I did for me, I’ll do for you
Forgive me baby, if our dreams don’t come true
Clarion Field

It was a very long time
In a single day
An empty house
Nothing left to say
I looked at you
You spoke to me
And the words flowed out
For eternity…

Across Clarion Field
With the horseshoe trees
So close and yet so far from me
You saved my life
And now you’ve gone
But I won’t cry because life moves on

It was such a long end
To a younger life
And tragedy
Cuts like a knife
When you lose your love
Along the way
Cos you never tried
So she went away…

To Clarion Field
With the horseshoe trees
So close and yet so far from me
You saved my life
And now you’ve gone
But I won’t cry because life moves on

Calling out a different name
Screaming out how love has changed
Maybe you’ll find something that stays
Now it’s slipped away
So those days are gone
And you sing a different song
Just take what’s yours and carry on
Like you do

Now from this place
Can’t you see?
There’s nothing
Where you used to be
And it got me down, yeah
It made me sigh
But in my heart
You never died
One Good Thing

Tell me one thing that I’ve done lately
That doesn’t come back to haunt me. 
Tell me one thing that I’ve done girl
That doesn’t come back to taunt me.

If I can do one thing baby
If I can stand and fight
If I can do one good thing
And make it all alright

You know there were others back then
But you’re the one I loved
So I’m sorry I can’t help you now
But I’m glad you thought I could

If I can do one thing baby
Well I might be forgiven
If I do this one good thing
Find a way to heaven

Don’t know why these things are happening now
Don’t know why I’m turning inward 
When she left I felt abandoned and afraid and angry
Though she taught me love is endless
Love is endless 

Now at night I hit the streets
City bars are waiting
And it’s so hard to be all alone
But the ties are slowly breaking

See, if I can do one thing baby
And hold this thing together
If I do this one good thing
We might last forever
Pretty Baby

Ooee baby
You drive me crazy
So crazy I’m just hanging on for you

Ooee baby
You drive me crazy
So crazy I’m just hanging on for you

And sometimes I think that I get it right
And sometimes I think I’m going to lose this fight

So I say
Ooee baby
I’m holding on for you

This pretty lady
Came walking down my street
Rings on her fingers and high heels on her feet

This pretty lady
Came walking down my street
So I’m looking in windows
Hiding my face
Can’t find the words to speak

And sometimes I feel that I get it right
And sometimes I feel I’m going to lose this fight

So I say
Ooee baby
I’m holding on for you

Cos you drive me crazy
I’m holding on for you

And sometimes I think that I get it right
And sometimes I feel I’m going to lose this fight

So I say
Pretty baby, I’m holding on for you
Pretty baby, I’m holding on…
I’m holding on
Georgia

Before I got to Georgia I was running scared
Rain on my back and loneliness, I was all alone
I was watching out for the signs
Now I got to Georgia I ain’t going home

Man, I worked my fingers to the bone
Doing my job to pay for what I own
Hey, if I could’ve changed it man I would
But before I got to Georgia I wasn’t doing too good

She took the time to change me
Change me like she could
She took the time to hear me
And healed me for good

Cos by the time I got to Georgia I was running scared
Rain on my back like all the things I felt inside
But hey I don’t want to do this all alone
But before I got to Georgia I was on my own

Rain on my back, running scared and all alone

Now I got to Georgia I ain’t going home
