Lyrics
From Land to Land
What will happen when I go
Will the castle still remain
What will happen when I don’t see you
Will the stories go away?
Will the warm thoughts still surround you with the same love
And can you show them the way
They are what has connected us
Our imagination of a better place
From land to land
And from the sea to the stars
Those dreams take us to a better place
When the world pushes down on my soul
Our imagination washes those problems away
I don’t want our world, away from my world
To leave, with only a grain of sand as a memory
So if I’m on a land, across the sea
The stars will bring us home
Somehow I’ve grown fonder
Of playing out stories in my mind
Of crossing bridges, and making new friends
The ones I can’t seem to find
These friends don’t care what I say
An apology fixes every time
I can’t lose the time to dream
I fear the real world will take that from me
From land to land
And from the sea to the stars
Those dreams take us to a better place
When the world pushes down on my soul
Our imagination washes those problems away
I don’t want our world, away from my world
To leave, with only a grain of sand as a memory
So if I’m on a land, across the sea
The stars will bring us home
My troubles won’t leave me
So I must carry on
When I climb up the mountain
Will I lose the imagination and love I have now?
Sometimes I wish I could just stop time
Keep living the dreams that are in my mind
Though in my heart I know, when I reach the sky
They’ll all be by my side
From land to land
And from the sea to the stars
Those dreams take us to a better place
When the world pushes down on my soul
Our imagination washes those problems away
I don’t want our world, away from my world
To leave, with only a grain of sand as a memory
So if I’m on a land, across the sea
The stars will bring us home
Someone You Can Love
I saw you fall
on something
but you picked yourself right up
You kept on walking
You put on a smile
And you seemed alright to me
But you kept on tripping
Beneath the sinking sun
And I felt like something was wrong
Then you were gone
You were out of sight
And the sun was below the horizon
Let me be someone that you can talk to
Let me be a guiding hand when I can
I always will be your old annoying friend
So let me be someone that you can love
I’ve heard the thoughts
As to where you might have gone
But I don’t know what to think
It’s hard for me
To see you sunken
Down into the ground
I know
You are in
There, somewhere
And I know
You will leave that place
I could never doubt you
Let me be someone that you can talk to
Let me be a guiding hand when I can
I’ll always be your old annoying friend
So let me be someone that you can love
You don’t have to be
Something spectacular
Cause at the end of the day
No one is
You don’t have to be
Some different around me yeah
So let me be someone that you can love
Let me be someone that you can talk to
Let me be a guiding hand when I can
I’ll always be your old annoying friend
So let me be someone that you can love
Change
Something has changed
In the way the earth takes its daily run
Devastated I used to be
For when they stole my voice
Something has changed
Feels like ash instead of flame
New growth I see in the distance
But the fear of fire still remains
The winds, the rain they washed away
All that I had
A beginning is here, I can see that clear
When the clouds leave the sky
You seem so shy
So different than I remember
But would I replace any of it?
I don’t know
Took me by surprise
The way you seemed to glance at me
Promises have been broken
And maybe I am broken
But it took me by surprise
How timid you were towards me
If I matter to someone
Then maybe I matter
The winds, the rain they washed away
All that I had
A beginning is here, I can see that clear
When the clouds leave the sky
You seem so shy
So different than I remember
But would I replace any of it?
I don’t know
Think this could be new
Is this the new daze?
The road seemed to have no end
Am I now at the end?
I’m ready to stand tall with the change
Are you the change I’ve been wishing for?
You’ve helped me up the mountain
And are you the one to welcome me home?
The winds and the rain they brought to me
A beginning, with a clear sky
You seem so shy, so beautiful
And I won’t replace
The winds and the rain they brought to me
A beginning, with a clear sky
You seem so shy so beautiful
And I won’t replace
The Breeze
A long time ago but not long enough ago
Was the first time your small eyes met mine
I introduced you to my old man
He took a liking to you and you called him a friend
Not long after that he hobbled cross the rainbow bridge
Other than his departure you’ve never really been sentimental
And maybe that means I shouldn’t be sentimental
But when you left, I couldn’t help thinking…
The world might leave me in the rain
I might throw my dreams down the drain
You might be gone, but you’ll sit beside me in my heart
And the breeze will never blow you away
When I slouched into the house you were always there
And I counted on you being around
I remember you getting stuck on the roof and resting in the sun
But what pains me most is what I never paid attention to
There’s an empty spot
In every corner, every chair, every room, everywhere
I didn’t understand how vital your peaceful presence was
And when you left, I couldn’t help thinking…
The world might leave me in the rain
I might throw my dreams down the drain
You might be gone, but you’ll sit beside me in my heart
And the breeze will never blow you away
Someday soon
It will settle in
For where you’ve gone
Is only my sadness
I’ll listen to you in the breezes
Takes me where it pleases
You’re with me more than ever
Makes me remember…
The world might leave me in the rain
I might throw my dreams down the drain
You might be gone, but you’ll sit beside me in my heart
And the breeze will never blow you away
Waves of the World
There is some simplicity in the sound
Of the music
Probably found it when I met you
It was long before we could know
Anything about the world
Or how to sing for all the noise
Back in those days, we were all shielded
From the evil of the waters
But now we all have to survive
You could be someone who I could
Ponder the problems with
And make them feel a bit simpler
Could you be
A soul that I could trust?
Would you be
Help through the waves of the world?
Used to be
So easy when I wrote this music
When I write the words to this song
I’m giving my heart along
There used to be a time when we’d talk
For hours on end
About the music that I love
Why has all that time
Been washed away?
Goner than gone the fish might say
If I were to find a new river
Sit and listen to the waves
I fear that life wouldn’t be the same
There seems to be no way to get the
Fish or flow back
I think I must sail on my own now
Used to be
A soul that I could trust
Used to be
Help through the waves of the world
Used to ride
The tide when I wrote this music
When I write the words to this song
I wanted to give my heart along
I still hope you’ll come back to me
So I can find my place, here or there
I want the old friend that I knew
Who’d run right at the brush
I still think you could be with me
Soaring over when the ocean floods
I hope someone will journey with me again
So I won’t be alone in the waves of the world
