Waterline Lyrics

♫ Waterline ▼

It's a hot muggy day, drinking red Red Cross koolaide
I wish I'd sleep and this would be a dream
Don't believe that TV screen or those news stand magazines
Until you've stood beneath the waterline

Chorus Come stand next to me, from here what do you see
Is there a future or are we captives of the past
With our backs to the wall, at the ceiling the lines crawl
It's something we all share, in and out and everywhere
We live beneath the waterline
We live beneath the waterline

I've seen cars up in trees, houses washed down the street
Lives lost, souls washed away
If your rich or your poor, it don't matter anymore
We're all the same beneath the waterline

Chorus

Bridge This a not a battle between us and a storm
It is a fight for home and family
To give and get love
If my house don't make it
Honey I still have a home
It's here with the brothers and sisters
The saints keep marching on

Chorus

♫ It's So Beautiful ▼

She forgave the lies I told her, all the ways I broke her heart
Let me walk outside and walk back in and begin with a new start
She lets me love her clean and pure
Puts her hand in mine as I'm reaching out for her's

Chorus That's so beautiful, it's so fine
It's so flesh and blood, so Devine
Not be alone in this universe
She belongs to me, I belong to her

Every single morning I am more amazed
Cause she can see deep down inside me
The best me I will ever be
She lives with the progress of this old piece of work
She loves me just like I am
For better or for worse

Chorus

Bridge I'm still on the trail of the girl who stole my heart
Winning her everyday is what sweetness is about
She protects me from the cold, safest warm I've ever felt
Thank our lucky stars we'll keep our secrets to ourselves

Chorus

♫ Screened in Porch ▼

The old tin roof it leaks sometimes
Right over the door when you go in or outside
The firewood's stacked safe and dry
Next to the wood stove that's as old as time
The winter won't last such a long long time
Down in these hardwoods and tall white pines
Soon we'll be mowing grass, tending tomato vines
That's the rhythm of the southern life

Chorus You just can't beat the summertime
As the tea soaks up the last sunshine
The front porch turns into Ryman Hall
It is Hank, George, John and Minnie Pearl
We'll tap out the beat on weathered boards
Been painted 100 times, worn down to bare wood floor
If I die, I hope I live forevermore
In the heaven of a screened in porch

The guitars are tuned and the bass thumps low
The locust hum, fire bugs make the whole place glow
There's a lot more peace and a lot less war
Out here on the screened in porch
The cats and the dog are blessed by The Lord
As they dodge the rocking chairs that walk this floor
We're keeping time is so much more
It's making heart beats for this world

Chorus

♫ Less is More ▼

I park the car. My chin falls to my chest
I say a prayer. My words will be blessed
That her bottle will still be full
Trapped between less and more

I am her son. I am a child that she has born
It's a cold winter's night. In her home out on the shore
She needs the truth. And I need her
We're both between less and more

Chorus As a child, she'd tuck me in
My favorite story, she'd read again and again
As I laid there. In my mother's arms
That bottle stole away her heart

It's not to late. You know we can start again
Take it from me. Let me show you where I've been
We'll step down off civic street
It's where I go. It's where I meet

In that room no one will laugh
We tell our stories. You can be my guest
We've all stood there in your shoes
With less and more we've had to choose

Chorus

♫ Hold on to Love ▼

Four in the morning
Doubts start to forming
On the backside of my mind
I've been roaming these roads
For so many years
I'm not sure I can leave them behind

She says that she loves me
Lord that she needs me
Right there at her side
That's the chance that you take
In decisions you make
If you hold to the love that you find

Chorus Hold on
Hold to the love that you know
You've got to hold on
Either hold or you gotta let go

Daylight will find me
The highway behind me
Reaching for that lady's arms
I'll be holding a space
In than woman's grace
I'll be feeling so safe and so warm

I'll give her my heart
All except for the part
That I save for the road left behind
But I'll leave it right there
Cause it's perfectly clear
You got to hold to the love that you find

Chorus

♫ Blow Dirt Blow ▼

He looks across the kingdom of the acres that he owns
To the Llano Estacado the place he calls home
This homestead is not easy, plant your sign and make your mark
320 acres, just enough to make a start

Chorus Then it's blow dirt blow, theses acres into dreams
You can't make her whole
Unless you give her back her heart
and leave behind the greed

The cowboys and the Indians they both disagreed
They said this land was made for grass, not cotton and not wheat
It is home to the buffalo then the sacred cow
You turn this sod over and you're gonna drive her spirit out

Chorus

Bridge Then the dust stood as deep as the snow
Covered all the fence posts then the windows and the doors
The old folks and the baby we prayed they might survive
Choked on dirt all through the night

Chorus

♫ Free Side of the Hill ▼

I woke up this morning, I knew I was alone
So I said to myself, how long can this go on?
I decided then and there, there is more than a mortal will
So I began a search for the free side of the hill

Chorus You might find me, you might find me
Yes, but you must look to the free side of the hill
You might find me, you might find me
Yes, but you must look to the free side of the hill

Genius Khan was the man supreme, through out all his lands
You know Alexander held the world In the palm of his hands
They concurred all and could not capture Peace of mind
Their empires failed, all they left was a memory behind

Chorus

Tell me, why run a race, if you do not plan to win?
Please tell me, why stand in the water If you don't know not how to swim?
Why pursue a goal, that's no bigger than yourself?
What's the reason for this living, is it heaven or is it hell?

Chorus

♫ Step Back in Time ▼

I placed the bet
So I live with the regret
For every song that I'll never sing
I've dreamed dreams inside dreams
They're still hanging in the breeze
So I hold my breath
So they don't blow away

Chorus If I could step back in time
Rewind all the choices that I've made
Yes if there were a chance
I'd never hold your hand
There is nothing
I would want to change

If a wish or a roll
Could turn theses songs to gold
I'd be the first
To toss the dice
I'd weave words into scenes
Where the blues all turn to green
And we could leave our troubles far behind

Chorus x2

I'm not sure if I know
Where the wind comes from or the falling snow
But I know that look that's in your eyes
It's telling me to just relax
Cause in your arms there is no turning back
The questions of today can wait their turn

Chorus Live life fully, not so fast
No need to hurry, just let it pass

Disasters strike and wonders shine
On Wall Street and the welfare line
Who's to say we get what we deserve
There are flowers I've never smelled
Feelings I have not felt
Questions I could ask if I had the nerve

Chorus

Morning's come and you're next to me
There' chirping birds and there's ecstasy
Treasures that our words, they can't describe
The secrets they are whispers shared
Wrapped inside of just being there
Thank our lucky stars that we're alive

Chorus x2

♫ Coming of Age ▼

Two middle age lovers, we cling to each other
Pray that we're working on our one another's
We practice keeping the promises made
Savor the wholeness of coming of age

Sweeter and deeper with each passing day
Takes a lot of hard work out here on the way
Together for ever comes a day at a time
Living in love is like gold down a mine

Chorus We stop up our ears, just close our eyes
To all the distractions, all of the lies
Count out the blessings of a home that love's made
That's the wholeness of coming of age

We planted and watered and guarded our seed
Walked all the boundaries, pulled out the weeds
They're fruitful and strong, they're our children, our fields
There's a great day coming when we gather the yield

Sweet situations still bring me a smile
Great expectations are well worth the miles
Secretes shared in sickness and health
For richer and poorer and all the hands dealt

Chorus
