THE MYSTERY Begin
with the voice, then start to sway Sing for Cindy's town I hear she's got
herself a job I hear it makes her feel sound You can tell her mind's adrift But
memory's just a well She drops her bucket down sometimes Brings it up to
show, not tell This is what's meant to be But
I wanna solve the mystery She turns her chair,
she walks a bit The town is turning gray I think I met her once, it starts
to click I think I know what she is, I think I pushed that away I will play
a song for her And all she represents What you are, what you are, what you
are What you are I play it on my guitar This
is what's meant to be But I wanna solve the mystery I'm
booked for a few more weeks, Those weeks turn to months, turn to years I'm
a little bit beat down Lost a bit in the blackjack
game, lost a bit in the empty eyes A stranger passes, I see her mom, I see
she's told some lies Give my best to the old gang, tell them I'm still okay It's
funny how you seem to stop When nothing's in the way This
is what's meant to be But I wanna solve the mystery This is what's meant
to be But I wanna solve the mystery This is what's meant to be But I
wanna solve the mystery WE

WORK She
cleaned the house for five hours She scrubbed the floor She did the dishes
and cleaned the stairs She polished the knobs on the doors It's hard work,
it's hard Don't take it for granted no more Hour
after hour, we're doin' the work It don't get done unless someone steps up Hour
after hour, we're doing the work You kept wishin' it would go away But you
have to do the work each day He takes the garbage
out and milks the cow He polishes the silver spoon He does the marketing
every Saturday He washes the car 'neath the light of the moon He wished
for secrets to be answered And for someone to help out But work needs to
be done, up comes the sun The work is what life's about Hour
after hour, we're doin' the work It don't get done, unless someone steps up Hour
after hour, we're doing the work You kept wishin' it would go away But you
have to do the work each day WALK
WITH ME When
you're tired and cold At the end of the day And the week seems so heavy
in front of you Don't hesitate to call on me I will do my best to comfort
you And baby, baby, walk with me, walk with
me, walk with me When you're sad and blue And
the world's a shady hue And their backs all seem to turn on you I will be
right here, so have no fear I will help you onto your feet so you can move And
baby, baby, walk with me, walk with me, walk with me
DESTINATION Here
we go again, With the right walk, and the right words For all of those who
wanted to be strong And here we go again We wonder, what could be the best
way To move this night along Look at all
the highway signs All the lovers drive in line And they say We're dy-dy-dyin'
today They say We're try-try-tryin' to pay The dues we feel we owe and
maybe someday We'll reach the destination Look

SWAY Each
time I wake up I don't know How to deal with adversity So, I look at the
ways to grow I see you lookin' at me I think I can be free Take
me to where all the green grass grows I wanna be where the wind blows There
I'll stay, I just want to sway I wanna be where the green grass grows I

joy Now here we go It's time to float, float on Take

CAN
YOU SEE THE SUN? It
was whispered once to me that one day you will be free It's true, the clouds
will part again In the hour when loops are closed, the baby bud becomes a rose It's
true, you will see it bursting Tell me now,
can you see the sun? Tell me now, can you see the sun? Through the trees,
through the storm Every day that I recall, the rain was like a wonderwall It's
true, sometimes the light comes creepin' through Every day until the end, the
rain will fall and fall again It's true, but it starts the world anew Tell
me now, can you see the sun? Tell me now, can you see the sun? Through the
trees, through the storm Tell me now, can you
see the sun? Tell me now, can you see the sun? Through the trees, through
the storm
WORTH WAITING FOR Someone
wrote something on a piece of paper It was like a letter from someone I'd never
met It said you shouldn't think of everything you might lose You should
think of everything you might get It talked
of a love affair, where two lovers snuck away They made a place to meet but
they were reckless They hoped to fall in love over and over, day after day There
was a book and an idea of tenderness, it said: If
you arrive early Please wait I might not be on time But I still need
the date It's hard to depend On people who let you down Especially when
so many people Are just runnin' around But trust me that I'll end up in
your arms again So please wait for me Your love is worth waiting for I
was reading a letter the things were all scrawled out It seems that it was
crossed out with red lines, But the message came through what was I could
see it had been crumpled a few times, it said: If
you arrive early Please wait I might not be on time But I still need
the date It's hard to depend On people who let you down Especially when
so many people Are just runnin' around But trust me that I'll end up in
your arms again So please wait for me Your love is worth waiting for For
some reason I was in the doorway There was a baptism A man was crying who
was not used to cryin' What was the reason? We can't recall But the letter
was still posted on his wall
I AM HOME Destination
snowcapped mountain Washington, by the trees and the river We can walk along
the trail to the sky We can reach the summit if we try From
the hills to the valley From my heart to the sky Feel the sun on my face I
am home, I am home Photographs in the passenger's
seat I was standing by a crashing waterfall Park the truck below and I can
taste The whiskey as I take a drink of it all From
the hills to the valley From my heart to the sky Feel the sun on my face I
am home, I am home Did the mountain call my
name? I think I hear her singin' to me The song is playin' on the radio I
think that I might go far away Back to from where I came From
the hills to the valley From my heart to the sky Feel the sun on my face I
am home, I am home THIS
