Great Divide lyrics - Hanson
The earth is shaking under siege
And every breath will meet it's fate
Still we hunger for a moment of freedom
Even though the hour is late
I find hope and it gives me rest
I find hope in a beating chest
I find hope in what eyes don't see
I find hope in your hate for me
Have no fear when the waters rise
We can conquer this great divide
When every eye is on the fortune
It can only breed contempt
They say blood is thicker than oceans
Still we box our brothers in
I find hope and it gives me rest
I find hope in a beating chest
I find hope in what eyes don't see
I find hope in your hate for me
Have no fear when the waters rise
We can conquer this great divide
Whoa, ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo
Whoa, ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo
Whoa, ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo
And we're gone
And we're gone
And we're holding on
And we're holding on
And we're holding on
I find hope and it gives me rest
I find hope in a beating chest
I find hope in what eyes don't see
I find hope in your hate for me
Have no fear
Have no fear when the waters rise
We can conquer this great divide
Whoa, ooo, ooo, ooo
Whoa, ooo, ooo, ooo
Whoa, ooo, ooo, ooo
Been There Before lyrics - Hanson
There's a down town corner
People down town know
And a back beat rhythm on the radio
And the girl who listens to a young man's song
On the block i live on
In the place i'm from
Well the young man sitting
On the dock of the bay
He took a long-term trip on a first class plane
How the whole world listens
To that one man's song
On the block i live on
In the place i'm from
Tell me does it move you
Does it soothe you
Does it fill your heart and soul with the
Roots of rock and roll
Does it move you
Does it soothe you
Does it fill your heart
And soul with the
Roots of rock and roll
Well the man in black sits
On a screened in porch
Making birthday wishes, 71 almost
You can hear him singing chariot
Swing low
On the block i live on
In the place i know
Tell me does it move youo
Does it soothe you
Does it fill your heart and soul with the
Roots of rock and roll
Does it move you
Does it soothe you
Does it fill your heart and soul with the
Roots of rock and roll
Tell me does it move you
Does it soothe you
Does it fill your heart and soul with the
Roots of rock and roll
Does it move you
Does it soothe you
Does it fill your heart and soul with the
Roots of rock and roll
Na na na na na na, I've been there before
Na na na na na na, I've been there before
Na na na na na na, I've been there before
Na na na na na na, I've been there before
When you can't get through it
You can listen to it
With a na na na na
Well I've been there before
When you can't get through it
You can listen to it
With a na na na na
Well I've been there before
Georgia lyrics - Hanson
Georgia, you know that you've been on my mind
Georgia, we've both learned to compromise
I'll be there for you
When everybodys coming unglued
Ill be there for you
I wont say you have to choose
I dont want to let you go
And i dont want to lose you slowly
I just want to let you know
That it's only just a little back and forth lately
Georgia, i'll be chasing you the rest of my life
Georgia, welcome to the roller coaster ride
When i come to you
I know that youll help me get through
I'll be there for you
We both know we could never choose
I dont want to let you go
And i dont want to lose you slowly
I just want to let you know
That it's only just a little back and forth lately
It's only just a little back and forth lately
You carry it like a heavyweight champ
It's hard to say i can't but i know i can't be right
There standing
I dont want to let you go
And i dont want to lose you slowly
I just want to let you know
That it's only just a little back and forth lately
I could never let you go
After all that you've been to me
I just want to let you know
That it's just a little back and forth
It's only just a little back and forth lately
A little back and forth lately
A little back and forth
Watch Over Me lyrics - Hanson
She wakes and takes her place in line
And never bothers to ask why the mirror sheds no light at all
The days turn into lesser days until there's only night
The light it wouldn't help she's too far gone
Her time is up it's five o'clock
It never stops
And she says please, and she says please
And she says please, watch over me
I watch her slowly make her way
Down on a road she shouldn't take
She always ends where she began
The years go by, they're adding up
She clicks her heels but she's still stuck
She's giving in but won't give up she'll never stop
And she says please, and she says please
And she says please, watch over me
And she says please, and she is,
On her knees and she begs and she pleads
Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
She counts the time 'til her heart breaks
Just waiting for her next mistake
And I said please, and she says please
And she says please, watch over me
On her knees and she begs and she pleads she says
Please, and she says please and she says please watch over me
She counts the time 'til herr heart breaks
Just waiting for her next mistake
Don't give up i know you've stopped believing
And you're down and you're begging you're pleading
Don't give up cause you're not too far gone
Running Man lyrics - Hanson
Waiting up all night
There's something on my mind
I need to tell you why
He's playing you for a fool
He's fooling 'round on you
And i just lost my cool
Feeling so sad
Too bad for the running man
Cause he waits too long so he can't
Come back again
Too bad for the running man
Cause i'm rright here waiting to make
That girl forget
Too bad for the running man, goodbye
Life isn't what it seems
Or something in a dream
That's not quite what i mean
I need to say goodbye
You think i didn't try
I'm not that other guy
I'm feeling so sad
Too bad for the running man
Cuase he waits too long so he can't
Come back again
Too bad for the running man
Cause I'm right here waiting to help
That girl forget
Too bad for the running man goodbye
Too bad for the running man
Cause he waits too long so he can't
Come back again
Too bad for hte running man
Cause i'm right here waiting to help
That girl forget
Too bad for the running man goodbye
It's too bad for the running man
It's too bad for the running man
It's too bad for the running man
It's too bad
It's too bad
It's too bad for the running man
It's too bad for the running man
It's too bad for the running man
It's too bad
It's too bad
Go lyrics - Hanson
For all the love we've made
Just one thing stays the same
The lamp gets dusty
The pipes get rusty
But I don't want to wash my hands clean
You say you love me too
Then why won't you go through
With the nightly kisses
With the hits and the misses
If you can make it on your own then
Go if you want to go
But stay if you want to know
The way through the mess we've made
And lie in a bed you know
Or go
I heard your moving van
But I didn't take a stand
You can't leave with them
You can't live without them
I never thought I'd want to let you
Go if you want to go
But stay if you want to know
The way through the mess we've made
And lie in a bed you know
Or go
For all the love we've made
Just one thing stays the same
The lamp gets dusty
The pipes get rusty
But I don't want to wash my hands clean
You say you love me too
Then why won't you go through
With the nightly kisses
With the hits and the misses
If you can make it on your own then
Go if you want to go
But stay if you want to know
The way through the mess we've made
And lie in a bed you know
Or go
Fire On The Mountain lyrics - Hanson
We sit secure in time-honored traditions made
Never wondering where or when the sickle may come
If we don't seek our knowledge to be greater men
When the rain starts falling gonna drown before we get our feet wet
We build our ivory towers to protect us from the flood
A fleet of vessels made of wood so they won't rust
But can we see the bottom of the bottle when we start to drink?
There's fire on the mountain fire and it's coming our way
Can we pick the pieces up
We're mending Babylon
Tryin' to right the wrong
Can we pick the pieces up
Live learn life love die dust gone
There's fire on the mountain
Can we pick the pieces up
We're mending Babylon
Tryin' to right the wrong
Can we pick the pieces up
Live learn life love die dust gone
One More lyrics - Hanson
I sit here by myself
Just staring into space
I thought I knew you well
Well who can ever say
It seems I've spent so long
I can't define my right from wrong
One more for the night
One more for the pain and
One more, long goodbye
And one shot to the brain
And one more takes the knife
And one more takes the train
Who do I name today
A dream of better days
Was long gone by the way
Is there a better place
Well who can ever say
It seems I've spent so long
I can't define my right from wrong
One more for the night
One more for the pain and
One more, long goodbye
And one shot to the brain
And one more takes the knife
And one more takes the train
Who do I name today
Who do I blame today
Nothing's over 'til it's over
And if it's over I don't
Want to hear it
Look into my eyes I told her
Holding onto what is gone won't heal it
It seems I've spent so long I can't
Define my right from wrong
One more for the night
One more for the pain and
One more, long goodbye
And one shot to the brain
And one more takes the knife
And one more takes the train
Who do I name today
Who do I blame today
Blue Sky lyrics - Hanson
I'm blind with eyes wide open
My body's tired and broken
I want a taste of something, that doesn't leave me dry
This hope for answered questions
As rare as true conviction
I stare into the distance, there is no truth in sight
Who can tell me why
Everybody's looking for a blue sky
Searching for an answer on a satellite
I know that there's got to be a blue sky out there to see
A blue sky waiting for me
I've seen the main attraction
I've felt the moment's passion
I won't be no soap box teacher, just taking your time
Just taking your time
Who can tell me why
Everybody's looking for a blue sky
Searching for an answer on a satellite
I know that there's got to be a blue sky out there to see
A blue sky
Everywhere I go, it feels like I'm always searching for something
'Til I know for sure, I'll be right here waiting for something
More, more, for something more, for something more
Everybody's looking for a blue sky
Searching for an answer on a satellite
I know that there's got to be a blue sky out there to see
Somewhere there's a blue sky waiting
Everybody's looking for a blue sky
Searching for an answer on a satellite
I know that there's got to be a blue sky waiting for me
A blue sky
Tearing It Down lyrics - Hanson
I am, taking a chance
Walking with my laces loose
Wrapped up, taking the maze
That everybody's running through
I'm sick of, black tie
Nickel and dime
We're going through the roof
I'm not a wise man
But I see the haze
And this is what I'm gonna do
Tearing it down
Tearing it down
Whoo, whoo
Tearing it down
Tearing it down
Whoo, whoo
There's a fine line
You walk everyday
'Cause somebody told you to
A white lie
You can't erase
Now you're gonna have to choose
You know a blind man
Won't show the way
But he can tell you
What it's coming to
Tearing it down
Tearing it down
Whoo, whoo
Tearing it down
Tearing it down
Whoo, whoo
Tearing it down
Ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni
Ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni now
Ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni
Ni ni ni now
Ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni
Ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni now
I'm not a wise man
But I see the haze
And this is what I'm gonna do
Tearing it down
Tearing it down
Tearing it down
Whoo, whoo
Tearing it down
Tearing it down
Whoo, whoo
Tearing it down
Tearing it down
Whoo, whoo
Tearing it down
Tearing it down
Whoo, whoo
Tearing it down
Tearing it down
Whoo, whoo
Something Going Round lyrics - Hanson
Are you falling asleep at the wheel
Maybe there is a feeling, you've been brushing off
Asking reason, what's left for me here
Well he's all out of answers
You're not out of luck
I've got this something
That's been going round
I've got this something
You don't know it
But you need it
I've got this something
That's been going round
I've got this something
You don't know it
But you need it now
Are you hungry?
Won't you come get your fill
We could put this thing in motion
If you'd stop acting tough
Superstar you sit up high on your hill
I know why you're running
Only you know what you've lost
I've got this something
That's been going round
I've got this something
You don't know it
But you need it
I've got this something
That's been going round
I've got this something
You don't know it
But you need it now
When the sun goes down
It's here waiting
It is still right here for you now
And when the sun comes out
It's still waiting
It is still right here for you now
Doo doo doo doo doo,
Doo doo doo doo doo,
Doo doo doo doo
I've got this something
That's been going round
I've got this something
You don't know it
But you need it
I've got this something
I've got this something, yeah
I've got this something
You don't know it
But you need it
Yeah yeah, you don't know it
Yeah, you don't know it
But you need it
I've got this something
I've got this something, yeah
You need this something now
Your Illusion lyrics - Hanson
You say you want to kill yourself
It might make it just a little bit easier
You think you're the only one who hurts
Try looking just a little bit harder
I don't know why you're holding on
To the damage that's been done
'Cause you've got me wrapped up in your illusion
I keep on trying to change your conclusion
But you've got me wrapped up in your illusion
I keep on dying 'cause you're busy wasting life
Don't disguise your emptiness
By placing blame on me and everyone else
Protected by your safety nets
But you can't put the heart of your fears at rest
All I feel is deep regret for what you have become
You've got me wrapped up in your illusion
I keep on trying to clear the confusion
But you've got me wrapped up in your illusion
I keep on dying 'cause you're busy wasting
I keep on trying 'cause you're busy wasting life
You're busy wasting life
You're busy wasting life
I cannot go on this way
I bring no consolation for you and your pain
No one else can change your fate
You'll have to do it for yourself
You've got me wrapped up in your illusion
I keep on trying to clear the confusion
But you've got me wrapped up in your illusion
I keep on dying 'cause you're busy wasting life
You're busy wasting life,
You're busy wasting life, you've got me wrapped up
You're busy wasting life, 'cause I keep on trying
You're busy wasting life, you've got me wrapped up
You're busy wasting life, and I keep on dying
The Walk lyrics - Hanson
Deep in a wood
Where nothing is seen
A tightrope is strung to his heel
And high on the walk
He's down on one knee
He waits for the slow of the breeze
Ooh, wow
Look at him now on his feet
High up in the sky
And every moment, extends endlessly
If feels as though time isn't moving
And every second, hold breath not to breathe
And watch as he moves to the beat
Well down on the floor
I watch from my seat
I watch as he sways with the trees
And slowly he moves
But so elegantly
I'm all on the edge of my seat
On the tightrope everything's bare
All that there is from here to there
On the tightrope the goal is quite clear
Don't lose yourself in your
Fear
Everyone waits on a walk
Some are long and some small
But all of them tall
And everyone must make a choice
Will I go for it all, and possibly fall
The tightrope is thin
I could possibly win on the walk
Well high on the walk
The tightrope it bends
And nobody knows where it ends
To win or to lose you're all on your own
'Cause everyone must be alone
On the tightrope everything's bare
All that there is from here to there
On the tightrope the goal is quite clear
Don't lose yourself in your
Fear
In A Way lyrics - Hanson
On the third floor of the hotel there's a pregnant Flamenco dancer
In the bathtub is a razor and she's planning her great escape
In a way she's giving up on herself, whoooa
Either way she's giving up some of herself, whoooa
In the backyard there's a small boy playing soldiers with an army ranger
In the front room there's a mother to the small boy,
She's a total stranger
In a way she's giving up on herself, whoooa
But either way she's giving up some of herself, whoooa
Love is only what you give up
Life isn't what you get
Love won't always fill your cup
But life's when you start to live
Life's when you learn to give
When I leave here I'm going to go to the small boy
And that flamenco dancer
Leave the guitar and the spotlight I'm gonna go home to my biggest fans
But in a way I'm giving up some of myself, whoooa
But in a way isn't that what it's about, whoooa
But in a way I'm giving up some of myself, whoooa
Whoooa, oh whoooa, oh whoooa
Isn't that what it's about
Oh, whoooa, oh, whoooa, whoooa, no no noo
Oh, whoooa, oh, whoooa,
Isn't that what it's about
Oh, whoooa, oh, whoooa
Isn't that what it's about
I Am lyrics - Hanson
Gone astray we find ourselves
Right on the edge of falling apart
Don't you see it's in our ways
When something's done wrong, we just go along
It lights a fire inside of me
Just show me when this living stops
I am father and son
I am all that I fear
I can choose to give up
We could tear the world apart
Tear the world apart
We could tear the world apart
Cut the cord start to breathe
We're living life at frantic speed
Don the suit and ride the steed
With these shackles on you won't come to harm
But I could be the worst of these
A sinking ship in the open sea
I am father and son
I am all that i fear
I can choose to give up
We could tear the world apart
Tear the world apart
We could tear the world apart
All on my own I'm trying
To change how you see and what you believe
To fight fire with fire and live eye for eye
We'll all end up blind and burning
Burning, burning
We could tear the world apart
We could tear the world apart
We could tear the world apart
We could tear the world apart
So Lovely lyrics - Hanson
She owns a shotgun and a fourty-four
And a five-pound chihuahua named El Salvador
She likes to lie under the stars at night
And watch the sky as the plains pass by
You know that skirt's so short your eyes could bleed
Yes, she acts like she's a royal queen of modesty
She'll keep you guessing 'cause her eyes deceive
When you think you got it made
She's got the aces up her sleeve
She's so lovely
And she lets you believe what you want to believe
When she loves me
All you know she can do no wrong
You know she wants to buy a limousine
So she can always look important everytime she's seen
She's got a smile that you can't believe
And the junk in her trunk! It'll bring you to your knees
She's so lovely
And she lets you believe what you want to believe
When she loves me
All you know she can do no wrong
Oh no, she can do no wrong
Say, you know she can do no wrong
When she loves me
When she goes out with the girls at night
She won't be back until the dawn of the morning light
She quit her job at the sales and loan
Now she's working for the nation
Got a job in immigration
She's so lovely
And she lets you believe what you want to believe
When she loves me
All you know she can do no wrong
Oh no, she can do no wrong
Say, you know she can do no wrong
When she loves me
Call Me lyrics - Hanson
Good morning, I'm alone
My joy's on the shelf
Because my broken heart
Can't mend more of itself
Today your hope is gone
He took it when he left
Well, his promise to hold on
Never could be kept
So just pick up the phone
And call me
When you find yourself alone
Just call me
I love the way I find
Your eyes to be so kind
And it's funny how they seem
To stare straight through me
So if you wake up today
Forgetting what you have
And you find that you feel lost
I'll be your ticket back
Just pick up the phone
And call me
When you find yourself alone
Just call me
Just call me baby
Need You Now lyrics - Hanson
Your deep brown eyes
They watch me as I sleep
And long dark hair
That washes over me
Like a ray of sunlight
That warms me as I wake
'Cause I need you now
Nothing ever goes the right way
Got to live life day by day
Hearts will bind you, they're to remind you of
Where you stand
A freckled nose
That nudged me as I sleep
A heart of gold
That holds me as I dream
Tucked away in silence
But wake me when you come
'Cause I need you now
Nothing ever goes the right way
Got to live life day by day
Hearts will bind you, they're to remind you of
Where you stand
I'll never see you home
'Cause then I'd sleep alone
Each morning as I wake
The sun is always brighter when you stay
Never Let Go lyrics - Hanson
Just lay down
And let your worries sleep
Don't think now
The water is dark and deep
'Cause you know that I'll love you
And never let go
And you know
That I'll love you forever
I'll love you and never let go
Yes I'll love you and never let go
Just cry out
Yeah I've cried those tears before
I can feel it now
As your teardrops hit the floor
'Cause you know
That I'll love you and never let go
And you know
That I'll love you forever
I'll love you and never let go
Yes I love you and never let go
You don't have to ask me do I love you
As I hold you it says how much I do
I'm yours until forever is through
Anytime I stand for you
I know I'd lay my life down for you
I'll never let
Not ever let go
just lay down
put your worried thoughts to bed
as slumber pulls you down
on my shoulder rest your head
'Cause you know
That I love you and never let go
And you know
That I'll love you forever
I'll love you and never let go
Yes I love you and never let go
never let go never let go
never let never let go never let go
