1. The Secret of Fire
The Secret of Fire
Chorus Intro
    The secret of fire, been trying to find
     Since the beginning of time
         The sword and the pen, the lute and the lyre
    We're still chasing
           Crouching in a cave two sticks in his hand     
       A cold and lonely man
     Then he felt the burn Life took a turn    
       This is how it began
It was mystical, irresistable
       Dancing there in the dark
       Gazing at the flame it took his breath away
       It had him by the heart
Chorus full
The secret of fire, been trying to find
       Since the beginning of time
       The sword and the pen, the lute and the lyre
       We're still chasing the secret of fire
Sittin' at the bar
       Could be any town
       Any night when the sun goes down
 People gathering
 It's a primal thing
   Just looking around
Chorus Intro
Hidden desire finding it's way
 Down through the ages
    Never grow tired, day after day
        We keep burning and turning the pages
Chorus Full x 2

 

2. Kind Word
Kind Word


I don’t have a line for this
         And I’m not trying to pick you up
   But I’m working on a lonely
   Bigger than a Mack truck

I don’t even know your name
       Or the place that you call home
 Come tomorrow morning
       I just don’t want to be alone

Chorus:
   I’m not looking to fall in love
      Don’t really believe in happy ever after 
       Maybe Tonight it might be enough
      If I just heard…  a kind word
 
      I haven’t always been like this
          It’s funny how the shadows get to you
      They know how to play a heart
      Oh such a slow seductive tune

               Who knows what the night might bring  
               Or where this conversation ‘s gonna go
      Come tomorrow morning
      I just don’t want to be alone

Chorus:

           Please don’t say you’re getting over someone
        Isn’t everybody?

Chorus:

 

 

3. Grace-with Patty Smyth
Grace-with Patty Smyth

I know that you’re out there
         Shadowing me in the mist
        I‘ve seen your silvery hair
       On a hundred nights like this
Not always a full moon
        Sometimes when I’m lost in the dark
        I feel the air move
       Against my heart
Chorus
I have known you all my life
      Please don’t be afraid to come into the light
      And show your face
      Grace
A delicate flower
        I’d almost forgotten the taste
        Locked away in a tower
        Innocent and chaste
 Chorus
 Baby I've been here all along
              But your world's so far away from mine
              I'm so afraid I won't belong
              Please don't turn away...We can try
Chorus x 2


 

4. Banks of Denial
Banks of Denial

Chorus
 Sitting, waiting, watching the water
       On the banks of denial
       Toe in, hoping for a sign
       On the banks of denial
^
I Can’t believe we’re here again
         This is getting too familiar
         Wasn’t love supposed to win
         Not get swept up in this river…  now we’re
^
Chorus
^
 Guess we didn't see
          When the current pulled us in
          We were willing to pretend
          When the little things began
          Me not kissing you goodnight
         You not taking my hand
^
Chorus x 2
5. When Right Is Wrong
When Right Is Wrong
Reasonably comfortable
      I Thought I had enough
     Yeah I had all worked out
     But love, love can show you things you never knew
     Like the way my heart felt
     The first time I saw you
Chorus
 I hate right when right is wrong
     When being weak is being strong
     To stay or be where I belong 
     I hate right when right is wrong
 Absolutely thrilling
       You took my breath away
      For a moment I was willing
      You almost heard me say
      To say that I would go with you and leave it all behind
      But my heart belongs to someone else
      Ohh
Chorus
I will always call it love
         Call it what you will
         Call it anything you want
         Just don’t say it wasn’t real
Half Chorus
To stay or be where I belong 
           I hate right when right is wrong


 

6. You Just Don't Walk Away
You Just Don't Walk Away

Who would’ve thought It’d come down to this

          Lying here like strangers in silence

          I can’t believe we let it get

          So far away from where we started

Chorus

But you just don’t walk away from a love like this

       I’m so afraid there are too many pieces

       To put it back together

       It would never be the same

       But you just don’t walk away


Not really asking you to change your mind

          I think we both know it’s over

          But we just can’t leave these memories behind

         Lying there like fallen soldiers


Chorus


 Maybe someday

              Things will look different, then one of us

              Will picks up the phone, “I was thinking about you”

              Thinking about you 


Chorus


Chorus

7. The Moment
The Moment

Lost on the ocean

Sometimes our love feels that way

Out in the open 

Two hearts adrift on the waves

Trying to find their way


Back to the shelter

The shelter of each other’s arms

Back to believing

Together we’ll weather the storm

That’s how we find our way 


Chorus

 Being able to recognize  the moment  as we see it

Being able to catch it as it goes by

Being able to realize  the moment  as we live it

Taking the time to keep it alive

Keep it alive


We let the world in

Stopped looking in each other’s eyes

What in the world were we thinking?

How did we become so blind?

We need to get it back baby cause

What we had was


Chorus


How did it happen?

What triggered this retreat

It really doesn’t matter

If it was you or if it was it me


Chorus 

8. The Pundit Song
The Pundit Song

 

 

Marionette like movements

Somebody pulling their strings

Carefully crafted motions

Somewhere the fat lady sings 

But nobody knows it’s over

Nobody knows….It’s over  

 

Sitting in hair and make-up

Watching them powder your face

Can’t let them see you sweating 

Can’t let them miss what you say

We need to be enlightened

We need to be

Told what to think and feel

To know what’s real 

 

Chorus

We’re Wide awake …Do they really think we’re all sleeping our lives away?

(We’re )Wide awake … Do they really think we ‘re all hanging on every word they’re saying?

We’re praying………

God save us from the pundits

 

What ever happened to Walter?  

“And that's the way it is”

He was somebody we trusted

That place in our day that was his  

 

But now we get 24 hours

Their Chessy cat grins

Constantly in our faces

Vying for our good graces

 

Chorus

 

Marionette like movements

Somebody pulling their strings

 

 

9. You Found The Song
You Found The Song

You were the first one

You were the only one who gave it half a chance

You didn’t hesitate you couldn’t wait to see

If there was a song in me


You took a blank page

And waited like a poet waits for the right words to come

And then you set them in the perfect melody

You found the song in me


So many songs left unsung

So many hearts without anyone

Who will listen?


You were the grand exception

You saw the things the others could not see

There beyond my careful self protection

You found the song in me


So many songs left unsung

So many hearts without anyone

Who will listen?

Who will listen…

You found the song in me

You found the song in me
