Unconfined 02:57
I want you to fall madly Into my waiting arms The ones that longed to hold you All this time I would kiss you without fear Of letting myself go I'd be all yours, but I'd never Call you mine 'Cause you so Unconfined Well you've got that sweet demeanor But no one ever fools you The ones who try are fools themselves I find 'Cause when they show you rules You gladly break them all Unafraid to dance across that line Oh Unconfined Dreams are bigger than a town Why don't we just get bound What's keeping you around That night we left for Vegas In your hot-rod nineties pickup You said "Buckle up, my friend, enjoy the ride." Looking oh so Unconfined

I'm losing track of the time I've lost Because I wanted your love at any cost I'm doing that east side hustle Trying to chase a dime There you can break the rules But just one at a time I Got dreams for days And I'm Counting up the ways I tried to make you stay In my dreams I'm flying home But I'm not in a plane, I'm all on my own As I float down from the air I notice you and everyone I every loved is there I Got dreams for days And I'm Counting up the ways I tried to make you stay When I awake, I'm by myself Then I spot your picture on my shelf It looks like you and me, we got along real nice I think I'll call you up and say I'm doing alright Oh I Got dreams for days And I'm Counting up the ways I tried to make you stay

Jesse: I was not as helpless As you thought, when you tried to warn me 'Bout those times you took risks Wound up losing more than you received Jesse + Howard: I got my shit together Although I may not always look the part I'll admit I got a gambler's heart David: I guess I was kind of reckless But you were never in any danger Some might call me foolish Spent my life chasing dreams and making wagers David + Noah: I was only trying to give you all A better start I can't change I got a gambler's heart David + Howard: And a gambler's heart Breaks like any other You don't believe me? Just ask your mother I was only trying to play the game And top the charts Howard: You know that takes A gambler's heart Noah: I must have seemed so selfish Leaving farm and family behind My hand don't fit a shovel But it fits a guitar neck just fine Noah + Jesse: I was only trying To give myself to my art Noah: Guess I'm like you I got a gambler's heart

Whatever happened to the style and grit? Some folks came in and got rid of it Can't stand to drink under innocent lights So take me down that Neon Pike Take me down Take me down down Take me down away from downtown Take me down

A simple solution to an age old problem Sounds pretty good about now 'Cause I don't know where to find A way to to unwind The memory that tells me just how We ended so sudden Just like it was nothing After those years Now it seems That no one around me Can answer the question "What's to be done with me?" I know she's so happy With her new lover They are out having a ball But no matter which queen I place at the top My house of cards always falls My heart does not want What I think it should want The thing that my mind surely needs The question remains In the back of my brain "What's to be done with me?" I know she's so happy With her new lover They are out having a ball But no matter which queen I place at the top My house of cards always falls My heart does not want What I think it should want The thing that my mind surely needs Is anyone in this bar-room Able to tell me "What's to be done with me?" Oh tell me "What's to be done with me?"

She said, you'll be alright It'll be just fine The hurting will end It just takes time There ain't no need to tell me twice I can understand It doesn't need repeating Even though I'm just a man Tell it to my tears (Tell it to my tears) As they roll down (Tell it to my tears) As they fall to the ground (Tell it to my tears) 'Cause they don't know (Tell it to my tears) She said we weren't nothing special Just a bump in the road As you go through life You hit a whole bunch of those I've never been a sensitive Bu my eyes don't seem to know It isn't very manly to put on such a show Tell it to my tears (Tell it to my tears) As they roll down (Tell it to my tears) As they fall to the ground (Tell it to my tears) 'Cause they don't know (Tell it to my tears)

You best be mindful With every stride Or you might catch a glimpse Of my rambling side I believe I'll go Might leave today I have never found good reason To hang around and stay I'll run away Run away Run away with you I'll run away Run away Run away with you One broke-down cowboy One wild child We'll go just like we got here We can do them both in style Like Lord Byron or Rimbaud We're slightly mad A little bad and Kind of dangerous to know I'll run away Run away Run away with you I'll run away Run away Run away with you Even though we started out on two different sides To the universe that ocean's blue But it's neither deep nor wide I'll run away Run away Run away with you I'll run away Run away Run away with you And when the troubles Hit our sails You know we won't be turning back We'll just steer into the gale We'll use the stars As our map Trust the winds with our two bodies And hope it's not a trap I'll run away Run away Run away with you I'll run away Run away Run away with you

You were all alone Nothing but the sky in each direction Past the limits sign In the shadow of the Church of Resurrection You said “What happens in the Heartland Stays inside your heart man.” So play it once again, Sam Play it all night long By Starlight ooh by Starlight By Starlight Samantha by Starlight Now the fireflies are out Hey let's talk about just how we got here I heard you came back for your Mama Me I'm just a sight seer And I ought to be in Mexico Or maybe New York City But I know it's not as pretty As this country side By Starlight ooh by Starlight By Starlight Samantha by Starlight They were never made to last The stars we're seeing burned out long ago As you handed me a cold one You said “Tell me all about your evil schemes.” In the morning when I wake up I wanna wake up to the person in my dreams She said “It don't always work out, But when it does you'll know that it's right.” In the mean time we can stay here We can stay here and just enjoy the night By Starlight Ooh by Starlight By Starlight Samantha by Starlight You were all alone Nothing but the sky Don't wanna wake up wanna wake up wanna wake up wanna wake up from a dream I wanna stay here wanna stay here wanna stay here wanna stay here in the starlight

'Lina Rose 04:17
When I first met my wife I thought she'd love me my whole life She called herself the Carolina Rose 'Lina Rose She called herself the Carolina Rose One day she walked down the path As she threw her red hair back In her teeth she held a Carolina Rose 'Lina Rose In her teeth she held a Carolina Rose With a Bible and a gun She said "We're gonna have some fun!" And the blossoms turned to thorns of 'Lina Rose 'Lina Rose The blossoms turned to thorns of 'Lina Rose I heard a cackle and a click Then I learned real quick The one who's in charge, it's 'Lina Rose 'Lina Rose She's the one in charge Miss 'Lina Rose

Chances 03:42
Kisses in the dark How it always starts Knowing it's a foolish kind of game We're both trying to win Before you go away I try and have you stay The odds aren't in my favor But I never trusted favors much my friend I know I was wrong But I'm asking you to forgive Or I'll regret it As long as I will live I've been taking chances so long I know how to deal Except for this time It's much too real Yours is the kind that's much to precious to lose I want you to know I'm taking my next chance on you Walking on the floor trying to guess the score arithmetic and love don't mix so I tell the tale and try and fix the end I've been taking chances so long I know how to deal Except for this time It's much too real Yours is the kind that's much to precious to lose I want you to know I'm taking my next chance on you I know I was wrong But I'm asking you to forgive Or I'll regret it As long as I will live I've been taking chances so long I know how to deal Except for this time It's much too real Yours is the kind that's much to precious to lose I want you to know I'm taking my next chance on you

All my life I've wondered how To mean so much to someone else You make it look so easy Never even break a sweat I know our time is ending It'll be over soon So before you go could you show me How to hang the moon Next time round I'll have it down I won't have think about All the times I won't be there To keep the flame from burning out It'll shine bright in the darkness Isn't that what it should do So before you leave would you teach me Just how to hang the moon Do I need a ladder to the stars A special set of nails That break sky when hammered Piecing heaven's veil I'll try to pick it up this time To remember all your moves So kindly could I watch you Once more hang the moon Once more hang the moon I am running out of reach here Stumbling from my feet's spheres And Mumbling in my speech dear As I recover from my swoon, How do you hang the moon

Everyone wants to talk to the farmer But won't listen to a word he has said They just try and change his opinions You want to print that? Go on ahead I Just want rain I pray for rain 'Cause it just won't rain Every time I'm asked what do I pray for The answer is simple and true There was a straightforward honest and great force And when it stopped, we were all screwed I just want rain I pray for rain 'Cause it just won't rain Don't you want to end suffering and hatred Don't you want some democracy now Someone's holy book or their color Never mattered to me anyhow I just want rain I pray for rain 'Cause it just won't rain More than twice I've been pulled from the floodwaters They asked how could you be such a fool Don't you know that there's no greater honor To be taken by what made you I just want rain I pray for rain 'Cause it just won't rain
