I Rode On

When I found this road
I didn't know how long
But the wind was at my back,
So I rode on
And when the night began to fall
I never saw the dawn
But the wind was at my back
So I rode on
I know the town that I call home
Won't be the same for long
But the wind is at my back
So I'll ride on
Bridge:
When it blew in from the north and brought the cold bite of winter
I rode on
And when she wouldn't have me near though I tried and tried to win her
I rode on
I know the road is dark
And the night is long
But the wind is at my back
So I'll ride on

Hammer

Chorus:
This world is made of stone
And I hold the hammer
This world is made of stone,
And I hold the hammer
I am not a master of this form
Nor a ruler of the land
But I have had the fortune to be born
With a hammer in my hand
Chorus
These woods are lovely dark and deep but I have promises to keep my friend
As long as I keep two in line my step will ne'er be out of time and this road will never end
Chorus
I am not a master of this form
Nor a ruler of the land
But I have had the fortune to be born
With a hammer in my hand
And this path I carve of living wood
And it grows with me
Chorus 2x

Nevermind

There's a song I have to write
I know it has to be tonight
This is gonna be the one I swear
There's a word I have to say
My lips were working yesterday
This is gonna be the one I swear
Oooooh
There's a girl I have to meet
Behind the counter down the street
My coffee is black, but her smile is so sweet
This is gonna be the one I swear
Nevermind...
Say the words and I'll repeat
And hope that yours is right for me
This is gonna be the one I swear
Nevermind...

Dawn

Aint no golden road before me
Aint no wind that's at my back
Aint no pretty girl beside me
Sky's a painted black
And the ice beneath my feet is almost thick enough to stand
But I'd be dreaming if I called it land
Aint no golden road before me
Aint no burdens at my back
Aint no pretty girl beside me
Sky's a moanin' black
And the ice beneath my feet is almost thick enough to stand
But I'll be sinking
Cause that good sun's a risin' it'll be here soon
I know it by that sliver near the dark side of the moon and I
Only hope there's time enough to finish out the tune that I'll be singing
Won't you come on soon
Aint no golden road before me
Aint no wind that's at my back
Aint no pretty girl beside me
Sky's a painted black
And the ice beneath my feet is almost thick enough to stand
But I'll be sinking,
Cause that good sun's a risin' I can feel it come
I feel it in the shiver in the ground I'm standing on and I
Only hope there's time enough as I look out upon the darkness leaving
To know the dawn

Morning
Early Morning
And the many voices whisper in my ear
Tell me things that I wanna hear
In the Morning
Daydreams
Sipping Daydreams
And the tired thoughts that follow me to bed
Speaking to me softly in my head
In the Morning
ooooh
Simple
Oh it's Simple
Just like breathing in and breathing out are one
Every creature needs the sun
In the Morning
Morning
Early Morning
How many times will I lay down tonight
Before I am ready for bed?
How many times will I turn out the light,
Till the lights have all gone in my head?
ooooh

Any Other Man

There's a lot of voices telling you no
And you're tryna find a place you can go
But you're the man!
And any other man just wouldn't know
And the mighty might look like they're strong
But they can't hold their poses for long
Cause you're the man!
And any other man would do it wrong
And the mountains might look like they're tall
But you know you're not seeing it all
Cause you're the man!
And any other man is bound to fall
And the demons may gather around,
But you'll tell them you're standing your ground
Cause you're the man!
And any other man deserves his crown
Any other man could feel the same
Any other man could feel like he was playing someone else's game
Or like his hand was made stronger than his chains
And the sun will go down every day
But your mothers and fathers will stay
Cause you're the man!
And any other man can say the same.
Lad'n da daht dee daht'n da
Lad'n da daht dee daht'n da
HEY!
Lad'n da daht dee daht'n da
Lad'n da daht dee daht'n da
HEY!
Any other man could feel the same
Any other man could feel like he was playing someone else's game
Or like his hand was made stronger than his chains
And the sun will go down every day
But your mothers and fathers will stay
Cause you're the man!
And any other man can say the same.
