Well it's not the way you planned it so you don't understand it anymore, no
Planted flowers in your garden but now you have forgotten what they are
Don't forget to
Don't forget to
Don't forget to
Don't go
Run a flag up every mountain just for those who doubted who you were
And in canyons and in valleys you've hidden and you've buried all you own

The Ship

Now the ship has sailed
Now the ship has sailed
To some other beautiful harbor
To some other port in the storm
She raises her mast
The wind is her breath
As she gracefully sails the sea
Now the ship has sailed
Now the ship has sailed
We stand on the shore to watch her
And applaud as she sails away
As strong in the storm as she is in the calm
Steady, strong and true
Now the ship has sailed
Now the ship has sailed
I remember her anchored in the harbor and covered with birds
While the waves crashed around her still she sat on top of the world
Now the ship has sailed
Now the ship has sailed

In The Spring

Seasons change
After the rains you've seen
You sure think you deserve a little sun
I'll get by cause I remember times
just living loud and singing songs
Love you more in the spring when my frozen heart can sing
And I hope today that summer never comes
Love you more in the fall after the heat of it all and I hope today that winter never comes
Yes I hope today that winter never comes
And I know too
That all of the things I do
Are telling me to stay another day
I'll be fine cause I know sun will shine
and carry all this grey away.
People got their reasons
Me I've got my seasons

How does your hair fall
So perfect each time
And how do we get to
the same place, same time
I never was a man who
had a winning first line
I knew when I saw you
I had to make you mine
How can a smle
weaken a man's heart
and how do we get where
we were at the start
So dance with me darlin'
I'll spin you around
The world will stop turning
You won't hear a sound
How does your hair fall
so perfect each time
and how do we get to
the same place, same time

Little sugar maple growing up tall
Down falls a branch and it kills them all
Well you couldn't no you couldn't have seen it coming
When you leave this world you can't take nothing at all
When you leave this world you can't take nothing at all
I was undertaken by the undertow
Water starts to rise and the wind began to blow
Well I could have yeah I could have seen it coming
When the rooster crows the third time you know it's time to go
When the rooster crows the third time you know it's time to go
Forty barefoot children throwing their stones
While forty kings of business ascend to the throne
Well we should have yeah we should have seen it coming
Cause when cash is king you're losing everything
Yeah when cash is king you're losing everything

If You Don't Ask

Love
It wasn't ours
But it was the kind of love
for which you would die
Love
It wasn't ours
It wasn't ours
I know what you're gonna say
before it ever leaves your mouth
And I know how you haven't felt
In way too many months
I know what you used to be
And it isn't who you are
I know what you're gonna say
And it's killing me
If you don't ask
I won't have to break your heart
If you don't ask
I won't have to break your
Heart
Love
It wasn't ours
But it was the kind of love
for which you would die
Love
It wasn't ours
It wasn't ours
If you don't ask
I won't have to break your heart
If you don't ask
I won't have to break your
Heart

So Long Friend
03:23

About the wisest man I ever met
A man whose name I don't recall
Only met him once or twice I guess
Never really knew the man at all
He said son don't ever say goodbye
To someone you hope to see again
He just shook my hand and said I'll see you in a while
He just smiled and said try this instead of saying goodbye
Just say
So long friend until we meet again
cause I know it's not our time to say goodbye
Just say
So long friend until we meet again
cause I know it's not our time to say goodbye
Always swore that I would write it down
And tell my friends just how I feel
But someday turned into yesteryear
A million sunsets away from here
Now I never ever say goodbye
to someone I hope to see again
I just shake their hand and say see you in a while
I just smile and I say this instead of saying goodbye
Just say
So long friend until we meet again
cause I know it's not our time to say goodbye
Just say
So long friend until we meet again
cause I know it's not our time to say goodbye
