Under the Weather

The reasons keep changing
But my heart stays true
So when the spring turns into summer
I expect it to
And when I fall back into winter
I am blue, so then I wonder
Am I a bit under the weather?
Seasons arranging themselves in line
Somehow I find myself
Surprised by this every time
Well you think I’d be expecting what
Is following behind, so then I figure
That I am victim to the weather again
I am victim to the weather
I am victim to the weather
Pull myself together again
I’ll pull myself together again
Maybe if the planets would align
And the stars continue to shine
I’d see that I…
That I changing
But my heart stays true
So when the spring turns into summer
I expect it to
And when I fall back into winter
I am blue, so then I figure
That I am victim to the weather again
I am victim to the weather
I am victim to the weather
Pull myself together again
Pull myself together again
Pull myself together
Again...

Build a Boat
04:34
|

|
All my cares and all my dreams
Are nothing more than a mystery to me
Well I will throw myself into the sea
And I will build a boat on hopes and dreams
So my prayers, yes they will stay
Unanswered to this very day
All my cares and all my dreams
They are nothing more than a mystery to me
Thoughts are soaked with possibility
And they are overcome by reality
So my friends, yes they will clearly see
That I am nothing more than a hopeful dream
All my cares and all my dreams
They are nothing more than a mystery
All my cares and all my dreams
They are nothing more than a mystery to me
I will throw myself into the sea
And I will build a boat on hopes and dreams
All my cares and all my dreams
They are nothing more than a mystery
All my cares and all my dreams
They are nothing more than a mystery to me

Ocean
03:15
|

|
Nestled away on an island that sits
On the west coast of Canada
There lives a girl with a mother
That means all the world to her
When she smiles
Lyla’s her name
And the ocean is found
In between all of her sunny days
Paradise lay on the coast of the bay
Mother Nature she whispers her name
Lyla Ocean
You are my potion
For making me feel
Much better for now
Lyla, you look at me
With those blue eyes
And I’m safe and sound
Nestled away
Heading into the bay
Where I drove through the hills
Searching for this small town
Where love can be found
And as I look around
All the sights and the sounds
They call out her name
Lyla Ocean
You are my potion
For making me feel
Much better for now
Lyla, you look at me
With those blue eyes
And I’m safe and sound

Flying Over Saskatchewan
02:56
|

|
On a plane that’s on a trip
‘Cross the country where I live
I had to go to see the rest
Towards the coast put to the test
The other side was good to me
Two feet in water’s where I’ll be
When this map points left for me
Well, I’ll look down to see
There are no clouds over Saskatchewan?
There are no clouds over Saskatchewan!
I dare not fall towards the ground
No pillows down there for me now
This land it weaves a coloured quilt
With patterns laid out town to town
A miracle to fly so high
To see this country from the sky
When this map points left for me
Well, I look down to see
There are no clouds over Saskatchewan?
There are no clouds over Saskatchewan!
No clouds over Saskatchewan
There are no clouds over Saskatchewan!
(No clouds over Saskatchewan
No clouds over Saskatchewan!)

To the Blue
02:45

You are discovering now
That our time apart will drown
Into all the rivers you've found
Draining to the blue
You are just figuring out
What our time togethers about
Through all the words we share
Floating through the air
It's the silence that gets me through
It's the silence that gets me through
It's the silence that gets me through the day with you
As we drive for miles and miles
Learning how each other smile
And we talk of the weather awhile
And somehow, I'm blue
It's the silence that gets me through
It's the silence that gets me through
It's the silence that gets me through
It's the silence that gets me through the day with you
You are discovering now
That our time apart will drown
Into all the rivers you've found
Draining to the blue
It's the silence that gets me through
It's the silence that gets me through
It's the silence that gets me through the day with you

I Know
02:25

You were waiting for me
Down the neighbourhood street
And I didn’t show
So you will be mine
Only in my mind
I know
You were waiting in line
As the show began
And you watched the screen alone
So you will be mine
Only in my mind
I know
I never know
Where to start, where to end
Maybe this goes to show
Maybe this goes to show
That you will be mine
Only in my mind
I know.

Finding Your Own Way
04:09
|

|
Every man must find his/her way
It’s not a simple price to pay
Going through your day today
Every man must find his/her way
With one foot in
And one foot out
Of the water, oh so cold
You will find you can’t live without
One foot in and one foot out...
Every man must find his/her way
It’s not a simple price to pay
Going through your day today
Every man must find his/her way
Whether you’re a millionaire
Or you’re living on the streets,
Somewhere,
You will have to pay the fare
Of finding your own way...
Every man must find his/her way
It’s not a simple price to pay
Going through your day today
Every man must find his/her way

All to Myself
02:47

In this world love will always be
Holding on to all we cannot see
Let it live longer than you and I
In this world true love will never die
And all I want is you
To make this dream come true
All I want is you
All to myself.
The love I have for you is yours alone
Keeps me company while you are gone
Let it live forever just the same
In this world true love it will remain
And all I want is you
To make this dream come true
All I want is you
All to myself.
All I want is you
To make this dream come true
All I want is you
All to myself.

Spend This Life With Me
04:41

Yoko spread around ashes today
Now man’s nature walk is another man’s grave
Beside the park is the home where they stayed
It’s where they found love in the air each day
I met you walking down the aisle
I fell to my knees and I said “I Do”
First time in a while…
Then I could feel the earth tilt to my side
These flowers were fake
But the words were real
And they made you cry
Wherever you go
That’s where I’ll be
If you will spend this life with me
Where will we go...
She held my hand as it began to rain
As day turned to night
I started to feel my luck change
This beautiful girl defines my most beautiful days
And I’ll pour you some wine
Passing the time, here’s what I will say:
Wherever you go
That’s where I’ll stay
Play me a tune, I’ll sing you a song,
It’s better this way
Wherever you go
That’s where I’ll be
If you will spend this life with me
Where will we go…
Wherever you go
That’s where I’ll be
If you will spend this life with me
Where will we go?

A Song for Her
03:19
|
|||
|
Give me your heart
And I will give you mine too
Show me a sign
That I can spend my time with you
Something is changing in me
All I can think of is you.
(You)
Share with me once again
A smile with open arms
Because I’ve gone so far away
To understand what they are
With all of these changes
I see rearranging in me
And all I can think of is you.
(You)
Give me your heart
And I will give you mine too
Whether or not
It grows
And follows these changes
I see rearranging in me
All I can dream of is you
(All I can dream of is you)
(All I can dream of is you)
(All I can dream of is you)

I’m so sad to see you go
Although you have to sail away
You’ll be coming back, I know
And I’ll see you again, someday
We knew it all along
The Grand Old Lady sets her sails today
But still I sing this song
To wish her well along the way
Even at the end
I’d do it all again
This house it is a home to me now
I’m sad to see you go
But I’ll see you again, somehow
Well I thought I heard her say
“We’re all the way up in Heaven now”
These ghosts they tend to stay
Once the show starts they dance around
Lights down, a dimming glow
A note of rest, the seams will start to fray
You’ll be prettier, I know,
But in your hair I like the greys
Every now and then
I say Goodbye to a friend
But this time it is more than a few
To the love of my life
In my joy and my strife
I know that I will marry you soon…
Thank you for the show!
As I stand and we applaud your grace
I’m so sad to see you go
But I’ll see you again, someday,
I’ll see you again someday.
