The Order Of Time

Pile in the church pew rows
Gran made the best yeast rolls
Gospel of stories told
Bout the one way to save your soul
Drag out the old guitar
Gas up that old ford car
We're gonna hit the dusty road
4 wheels can barely load
It's been a long, it's been a long, long, long, long, long, long, lonely road

Pops made his work in dust
But his hard-working hands fed us
Sun up 'til sun sank down
His body worked to the ground
Folks thought we had it made
Cause we always kept a face
Meanwhile there's bills to pay
And the stack growing every day

It's been a long, it's been a long, long,
Been a long, long, long, long, lonely road
My, my, my
It's been a long, been a long, long,
Been a long, long, long, long, lonely road

Soon as I turned 18
I packed up the grass is green
New York or Tennessee
Where I am is where I'll be
God tell me about your plans
And I'll find a place to land
Surely there'd be a way
To move towards a brighter day

It's been a long, it's been a long, long,
Been a long, long, long, long, lonely road
My, my, my
It's been a long, been a long, long,
Been a long, long, long, long, lonely road

One person's path unpaid
Went towards the path that saved
These are the songs you sing
In the search for the grass that's green

It's been a long, been a long, long, long, lonely road

Long Lonely Road lyrics © BMG Rights Management

You can leave knowing
You did all you could
You could have said ten thousand words
Done all the things that you should

But time's hands turn
To point straight your way
A memory faded to dust
Of a love you once made

There were the nights of the midnight ramble
The roll and tumble, the toss and gamble
There were suppers on the table
And electric's paid and rent was stable

We'd watch the sunsets on the shoreline
Walk hand in hand towards the star shine
Darlin' you had raise the windows, feel the rain dance
So sound and settled, deep in romance

So you can leave knowing
You did all you could
You could have said ten thousand words
Done all the things that you should

Time's hands turn
To point straight your way
A memory faded to dust
Of a love you once made

Love you once, love you once made
Love you once, love you once made
Love you once, love you once made
Love you once, love you once made

Leave knowing
You did all you could
You could have said ten thousand words
Done all the things that you should

Time's hands turn
To point straight your way
A memory faded to dust
Of a love you once made

Love you once, love you once made
Love you once, love you once made
Love you once, love you once made
Love you once, love you once made

Some things in life
Happen too slow
Sometimes you don't
Know which way to go

One thing for sure
One thing that's real
If and you ain't lovin' your woman, then someone else will
If and you ain't lovin' your woman, then someone else will

Men are born strong
Then broken down
Burdened at birth
Till six feet in the ground

One thing for sure
One thing that's true
If and you trust and believe in your man, he'll be good to you
If and you trust and believe in your man, he'll be good to you

Kids all grown up
Darn, it happened too fast
Parents gone broke
Money don't last

One thing for sure
One thing that's fate
If and you don't show them you love them, it will be too late
If and you don't show them you love them, it will be too late

If and you ain't lovin' your woman
If and you trust and believe in your man
And if and you don't show them you love them it will be too late

If And lyrics © BMG Rights Management

You can do your thing

Man done wrong and I don't care
Man done wrong and I don't care
Go on and roam 'round everywhere
Go on and roam 'round everywhere

Shadows dancin' at my door
Shadows dancin' at my door
I can't fight 'em anymore
I can't fight 'em anymore

Neighbor listen through the wall
Neighbor listen through the wall
Know that neighbor heard it all
Know that neighbor heard it all

Friend dropped by, but could not stay
Friend dropped by, but could not stay
Friend, he done up and walked away
Friend, he done up and walked away

Man Done Wrong lyrics © Bmg Platinum Songs, June And Stunson Publishing

How does it feel
To know that you can't go on anymore?

Bound, farewell, I'm bound
To leave you waiting by the front door
Bound, farewell, I'm bound
To leave you waiting by the front door

Tell me what you will
But I know just what I feel

Bound, farewell, I'm bound
To leave you waiting by the front door
Bound, farewell, I'm bound
To leave you waiting by the front door

Take what's mine
Love can be so unkind

Bound, farewell, I'm bound
To leave you waiting by the front door
Bound, farewell, I'm bound
To leave you waiting by the front door

Bound, farewell, I'm

The Front Door lyrics © BMG Rights Management

Is there a light?
You have inside you
Can't touch
A looking glass
Can only show you
So much
Follow the signs
Slowly but steady
Don't rush
The day will come
When you are ready
Just thust
Dancing on the astral plane
On holy water cleansing rain
Floating through the stratosphere
Blind, but yet you see so clear
Is there a way?
For you to shine
Without fear
From other worlds
But you can't say
What keeps you here
Dancing on the astral plane
On holy water cleansing rain
Floating through the stratosphere
Blind, but yet you see so clear
Dancing on the astral plane
On holy water cleansing rain
Floating through the stratosphere
Blind, but yet you see so clear
Blind, but yet you see
Blind, but yet you see
Blind, but yet you see
Blind, but yet you see so clear
Is there a way?
For you to give it
Your all
Dreaming a dream
Of sweeter things great or small
Dancing on the astral plane
On holy water cleansing rain
Floating through the stratosphere
Blind, but yet you see so clear
Dancing on the astral plane
On holy water cleansing rain
Floating through the stratosphere
Blind, but yet you see so clear
Dancing on the astral plane
On holy water cleansing rain
Floating through the stratosphere
Blind, but yet you see so clear
Blind, but yet you see
Blind, but yet you see
Blind, but yet you see
Blind, but yet you see so clear
Is there a light?
You have inside you
Can touch

Astral Plane lyrics © Bmg Platinum Songs, June And Stunson Publishing

Take my breath away
And you put me down
Teach me how to play again

Said, when I thought my heart
Had fallen with the rain
You taught me how to love again

Your sweet eyes
They don't lie
And your healing touch
Put my doubt aside

When I open my heart
Just to find
We are one
We are one
Just in time

When my voice was dry
And my eyes were sore from tears
Taught me how to face my fears

Well, I've tasted love before
But I never saw the light
Till you opened up the door

Your sweet eyes
They don't lie
And your healing touch
Put my doubt aside

When I open my heart
Just to find
We are one
We are one
Just in time

Your sweet eyes
They don't lie
And your healing touch, yes love
Put my doubt aside

And I open my heart
Just to find
We are one
We are one
Just in time

Just In Time lyrics © Bmg Platinum Songs, June And Stunson Publishing

Can I have this dance?
Shall we take a chance?
Oh, to long and pine
Oh, to search and find

It's a do-si-do
It's a toe to toe
Plant a money tree
Grow a love so free

And if I should fall so deep and true
And if I should fall so deep
May it be with you

Golden vest judge
But we don't think much
'Bout what went or came
Only what remains

And if I should fall so deep and true
And if I should fall so deep
May it be with you

Periwinkle rose
And each day we chose
Haven't known you long
Kept it sweet and strong

Write a poem or song
But you can't hold on
To what's come or gone
Only what's begun

And if I should fall so deep and true
And if I should fall so deep
May it be with you
May it be with you
May it be with you
May it be with you

With You lyrics © Bmg Platinum Songs, June And Stunson Publishing

What you believe
You give and receive
You patiently wait
Or hurry towards fate

Well, you tapped into time
With luck on your side
And ask no questions why
You just slip slide on by

No question why
You just slip slide on
You slip slide on by

Well, I knock at your door
Gather your heart from the floor
When no answers come
Ever still, never run

No question why
You just slip slide on
You slip slide on by

No question why
You just slip slide on
You slip slide on by

Sometimes I get the feelin'
That I might be with you tomorrow
Tomorrow
Tomorrow
Tomorrow

And you need
And you need me
I need you

So don't question why
You just slip slide on
You slip slide on by

No question why
You just slip slide on
Slip slide on by

No question why
You just slip slide on
You slip slide on by

Slip Slide On By lyrics © BMG Rights Management

Known you just a little while
I won't question or wonder how
If you've got a better plan
Be the first one to understand

Then they fell
Two hearts they fell
What they felt
Two hearts they felt
Like they'd been wishing on a wishing well

See, I had learned to live alone
Quiet house keeps a weak mind strong
Though I'd settled in my ways
It's mighty fine waking to your face

Then they fell
Two hearts they fell
What they felt
Two hearts they felt
Like they'd been wishing on a wishing well

Known you just a little while
I won't question or wonder how

Two Hearts lyrics © BMG Rights Management

I could sing you
A country tune
And carry the name
Sweet Valerie June

But I got soul
I got sweet soul
Soul

Well, I could play you
Play you the blues
To help carry the load
While you're paying your dues

But I got soul
I got sweet soul
Soul

Yeah, I got soul
Yeah, I got soul
Yeah, I got sweet soul
Soul

You've been often
Misunderstood
You been tossed and tangled
In search of what's good

Follow your soul
Sweet soul
Soul

Yeah, I got soul
Yeah, I got soul
Yeah, I got sweet soul
Soul

Yeah, I got soul
Yeah, I got soul
Yeah, I got sweet soul
Soul

Yeah, I got soul
Yeah, I got soul
Yeah, I got sweet soul
Soul
