Lyrics

Here I am, back again

Same old kid I’ve always been

Searching for a place to feel alive again

Age sixteen, our world is new 

A promise made between us two 

By the time this journey’s done you’ll never be the same

Steal a little bit

Give a lot back

Taking chances on all you will receive

Seeing things you never could believe 

Singing songs, Endless Nights

Finally found a friend

Say goodbye to all that holds you

Here at Summer’s End

There you were, behind your fence

Your sorrows never made much sense

Wishing for a place where you could still be free 

Chase the sound of full rejoice

In you I found my soul and voice 

Don’t you long to catch the star that no one else can see? 

Give a little bit

Get a lot more

Hearts will be broken here for sure

Make a noise like no one’s heard before

Singing songs, Endless Nights

Finally found a friend

Say goodbye to all that holds you

Here at Summer’s End

Older now, it still rings true

A promise kept between us two 

Chorus

Seven thirty comes around quickly

Get dressed, grab a cup to go

Out the door, you’re moving real swiftly 

Start the car, it’s time to hit the road

One, two, three, four

It’s gonna be a good, good day

You just want more

Than you can take

Got a spot with your name on it

Corner office and a corporate card

You never get to see those old friends

But that was back then, this is your time now

Oh, oh, oh, Everything Changes

Oh, oh, oh, Sometimes right before your eyes

Oh, oh, oh, everything changes

Oh, oh, oh, You might not even realize

Prom queen, captain of the cheer squad

Oh yeah, they’re playing your song

We all saw you moving with the “in” crowd

Uh uh, it didn’t take long

One, two, three, four

This is your life to make

You just had more

Than you could take

Always thought you’d find Prince Charming

Still waiting for him at the bar

Your dance card was filled up every evening

But that was back then, this is your time now

Oh, oh, oh, Everything Changes

Oh, oh, oh, Sometimes right before your eyes

Oh, oh, oh, Everything changes

Oh, oh, oh, You might not even realize

Seven thirty comes around quickly

Get dressed, grab a cup to go

Out the door, you’re moving real swiftly 

Start the car, it’s time to hit the road

Pretty as a picture we may never see again

Throwing every caution to the wind

The stakes are higher now than they have ever been

It’s time to make the call, my friend

Say you still believe and we can find a way

Another chance, another day

If we dare

We’ll make a brand-new start again

If we dare

We’ll make it right, we'll make it last 

If we dare

We’ll go farther than we’ve ever been

And we won’t be looking back 

Do you remember now who you were born to be

Here where angels fear to tread

Pay no attention to the souls too blind to see

No more listening to the dead.

We’re all just wanderers trying to find our way

Another chance, another day

If we dare

We’ll make a brand new start again

If we dare

We’ll make it right, we'll make it last 

If we dare

We’ll go farther than we’ve ever been

And we won’t be looking back 

Once you turn around

What’s lost has now been found

I may have been a fool,

But I’ll never lose you again

We spent some time away

I called you yesterday

I wonder what we’ll do 

Now that we’re feeling the same

I can’t tell where we went wrong

Or why we took so long, but …

This time, this time.

Gonna get it right.

This time

Whoa-oh, whoa-oh yeah

This time, this time.

Gonna get it right.

This time

Whoa-oh, whoa-oh yeah

Another space and time

You swore that you’d be mine

Then you turned away 

And found something better to do

We tried to move along 

Years have come and gone

Not too much has changed

Like time never touched me or you

Come on tell me,

Won’t you tell me 

You won’t let me down 

Way-oh, way-oh

Right on track now

Way-oh, way-oh

There ain’t no turning back now

Drift away to sleep 

Our perfect day has come and gone

Smiles to slumber now

And all new memories are born

Still so much to tell 

But words they seem to fail to say

Even in the darkest times

Your light will never fade away

Time and time again, I hope you’ll always understand

All Your Life

I’ll be here beside you

All Your Life

I’ll be there to take your hand

Even one day when I’m gone

You’ll never walk alone 

For all your life.

The places you will go

Will carry you far and wide

Every stumbling step you take  

Will only leave me terrified

Keep one thing in mind,

To all your friends and loves be true 

If in this life I do one thing right,

It’s to be a better man for you

As time rolls on, one thing on which you can rely

All Your Life

I’ll be here beside you

All Your Life

I’ll be there to take your hand

Even one day when I’m gone

You’ll never walk alone 

For all your life.

There goes the one I’ve been watching

Who inspires the sun to shine

I’ve had some time to think it over, 

And I need to make you mine 

Before you give yourself away

I’ve got to let you know that …

You could do much better

Why can’t I make you see?

You could do so much better

Turn around now (turn around now) 

Yes, I’m talking about me

I see you staring right through me

I’m always just a friend

But if you knew just what you’ve been missing

You’d never be alone again

Before you throw it all away

I’ve got to let you know that …

Chorus 

There’s only so much I can do

To get a message through to you 

There’s so much I want to say 

Come on, come on
And take a look my way …

Hey! Lucky me

I’ve been down

But my life’s about to turn a corner

Right into an oncoming train

Guess I won’t be late but just in … time

Goes by

Before you even know you missed it you’ve been

Wired for sound

The music plays, you start to dance, and …

Hey! Lucky me

I’m falling down

They’re gonna replace my supervisor

Now I’ve got to report to a clown

All of my punchlines have never been as … funny as

It seems, amazing to believe, it’s hysterical

You’re handed a glass of time

And every grain of sand has a number on it

Hey! Lucky me

I got your call

I couldn’t make out what you were saying,

How you were expecting … something more

But this is the best part, you’ll never get it

Back in my day

We never felt this way, our whole life

But fate has a way

Of making sure life kicks you hardest when you’re down

And it’s time

To pick yourself back up and say

To pick yourself up and say

And say …

Lucky me.

Don’t say how hard this is for you, 

‘Cause you mean everything to me.

My hands are shaking from the news

And hearing how it’s going to be

Please, please tell me

That this is not the end, you’re just messing with my head 

Beautiful lie

Come hold me now and take me through the night

Keep me safe and warm

Tomorrow when the morning comes

You can go your way, and so will I

Keep your good intentions close,

I hope they keep you warm

All those little things we’ve said and done

Now can only do me harm 

Please, please tell me

You’ll lay with me again

I can’t lose my closest friend 

Don’t say the words you didn’t mean

’Cause I don’t want to understand 

Is there nothing I can do? 

To keep from falling through your hands

Living with my confession

Where is it taking me? 

Dream of a life of promise,

A promise I’ll live to keep

Finding out all my questions

Lead to a single answer

Until the stars fall from the sky, 

I will wait to make you mine

Until the day our worlds collide,

There’ll be no surrender.

Until the stars fall

Caught up in every moment,

Got a new sense of wonder

I’ll suffer the time and distance,

There never could be another

When laughter and lies have faded,

And others will leave you lonely

I won’t fall behind …

Until the stars fall from the sky, 

I will wait to make you mine

Until the day our worlds collide,

There’ll be no surrender.

If it takes forever

Until the stars fall

Hey you, did you get what you wanted?

Hey you, is that just what you needed?

Right now, I know I gotta keep my eye on you

Oh yeah, I thought you were a friend

I guess, I guess it all depends

Which side you’re on when you’re getting screwed

The truth becomes distorted 

By your vanity

You tried to play me for a fool

But you’re not fooling me

You cannot bring me down

And you can’t hurt me anymore

You cannot bring me down 

No more, no more, no more

Wipe out all my good intentions

I don’t know what I was thinking

How could I ever put my trust in you?

You tried giving me the business

But I know just where the truth is

Watch out when your karma is coming due

You’re just a vain illusion of

Who you used to be

Tried to play us all for fools

But you’re not fooling me

You cannot bring me down

And you can’t hurt me anymore

You cannot bring me down 

No more, no more, no more

Where can I put the smile back on my face? 

I want to go right now to reach that place

Do you want to hitch a ride, come along with me? 

I need to get it down to size 

Getting tired of all this compromise 

See the sunlight stretch as far as I can see

I can’t tell what tomorrow brings, but …

I’m heading out for bluer skies

Gonna leave my troubles far behind

I’m gonna set my sails and drift away

I’m holding on for better days,

Don’tcha know they’re gonna come my way

I’m gonna turn the music on 

And let it play

Tell me, when your days are done

Will you say you lived every single one? 

Think about it: What in the world have you got to lose?

Does it satisfy you? I can’t tell 

But I hope the circus treats you well 

Just remember, you can quit the show 

any time you choose

You can stay here if you like, but …

Chorus

I’ll be rich in how I spend my time, ‘cause

I’m heading out for bluer skies

Gonna leave my troubles far behind

I’m gonna set my sails and drift away

I’m holding on for better days,

Don’tcha know they’re gonna come my way

I’m gonna turn the music on 

And let it play

I’m heading out for bluer skies

Gonna leave my troubles far behind

I’m gonna zip-a-dee my doo-dah-day

I’m holding on for better days,

Don’tcha know they’re gonna come my way

I’m gonna turn the music on 

And let it play

I’m gonna turn the music on and let it play

I’m gonna turn the music on 

And let it play

You were so good to me

Gave me everything I need 

To get me through

And I Thank You

Laguna Beach to San Jose

West Hollywood’s where I made my way 

And found a friend

But I can’t stay 

It’s time to go

Don’t look at me that way

We had to know 

There would come a day

When I’d say 

Goodbye California,

There’s always something new to love about you

About you

Goodbye California

I’ll miss you, but I’ve got to live without you

Without you

Music in the evening breeze

Among Juniper and Redwood trees

In endless days

We lost our way

Sunrise on the PCH

Homeward bound would have to wait

But it’s on my mind

All the time

It’s time to go

Don’t look at me that way

You had to know

There would come a day

When I’d say 

I won’t live with this regret

But I know I won’t forget
