Strange encounters It's so strange to have you all in my room Have you been altered? You're not lookin' the same as you and you and you So glad I found ya Been lookin' so long for someone like you And I want you to go To take off And join us all And please leave with me To fulfill your destiny North of Gibraltar We'll meet up there and we'll blast off so soon Message from Hatonn Said he's so glad we can be there by noon Been years since I've been here It's not lookin' the same except you and you and you And you and you and you And you and you and you And I want you to go To take off And join us all And please leave with me To fulfill your destiny

The only time I beg them off Is when you're closin' in on me I can get some time 'til mornin' Just meet me around the bend and Come on home with me Well I tried and cried But no more Finally seein' it through And I'm not waitin' for the perfect moment One by one I'll push 'em all out So glad it's you And I need to know Would you sing with me? And I need to know Well can I? Can I? Tried and cried But no more Finally seein' it through And I'm not waitin' for the perfect moment One by one I'll push 'em all out So glad it's you

Springtime and your muddy moods Whatcha doin' You're staring down me now? Hurry now punch across the stream Get ready One two three go Springtime and your muddy moves Gotcha down But you're hangin' on to me now? What we lost we'll never see Washed away and covered from me Springtime and your muddy moods Whatcha doin' You're staring down me now? Springtime and your muddy moves Gotcha down But you're hangin' on to me now?

Back To You 03:24
Flyin' high Flyin' my ways Flyin' always Back to you Flyin' always Back to you Bit slow today I am on time I'm on my time Just wait with me I'm on my time Just wait with me Happy home Is where I can see When we depart You and me You took my day And the next day And all the days Right for you Give us all the days Back from you Lost with you It's been sideways Been fuckin' five days Just help me through It's been five days Just help me through

Pale weak and shy With troubles to meet your eye But if you want to meet Come! It's my treat And it's all for you Pale weak and shy With troubles to meet your eye Come down to the street That's where we'll greet Cuz that's what we do And I want to know Can I have a seat before you? Cuz it's what you say And it's who you have before you And I want to know Can I have a seat before you? Cuz it's what you say And it's who you have before you

Knew it's you, hound dog Gettin' my dog run off If anyone's seen the two I'm just up the road Cuz it's dark and cold in your woods Let's just hope they show Knew it's you, hound dog Lookin' for you Can't hardly see Thinkin' about all those days with you Where you missin' to, Tubbs? Can't hardly see That hound took you from me We're comin' for you now Why'd you go run away Why'd you go and leave my side Whatcha doin' to me, hound? Whatcha doin' to me Where you missin' to, Tubbs? Can't hardly see Should have stayed right home with me Knew it's you, hound dog If anyone knows the truth It'd be nice to know Cuz it's dark and cold in your woods Let's just hope they know Knew it's you, hound dog

Thinkin' I saw him Hold the phone Highland Rider Is all alone Worn to bone and eyes like a ghost Doin' what he had to do Sayin' that he's through with you But aren't we all through with you? Sing it all at once with me! Well I see Someone here knows where he'll be Sing it all at once with me! I have it on authority Well I'll be Highland Rider's just up the stream Highland Rider's just up the stream Sheriff wants a word with you Sayin' you know a thing or two Doin' what they had to do But Highland Rider knows a thing or two Sing it all at once with me! Sing it with authority! Well I'll be Someone here knows where he'll be Sing it all at once with me! I have it on authority Well I'll be Highland Rider's gone and free Highland Rider's gone and free Highland Rider's gone and free

I can show you a love that bleeds I can show you a love that needs A little warmth And hope A little room to grow Runnin' free The wind has slowed The snow is deep The cold we know Would like to freeze Our home We'll never let it inside Runnin' free Never let it inside
