Signs 04:33
Oh no, here we go Waiting for some kind of miracle Holding your breath for someone else’s destiny Instead of getting there on your own two feet They say that you can’t help those That can’t help themselves Relying on anything instead of yourself Meanwhile the world has passed you by While you were waiting for a sign Waiting for a sign (All that dreaming) It means nothing (All that wishing) It means nothing (All that hoping) it means nothing If you can't get out your own way (All those dreams) Lead to nothing and (All those wishes) Lead to nothing (All that hoping) Leads to nothing If you can’t get out your own way Oh no, here we go The lie you’ve been living is escapable Horoscopes, astrology, some cosmic entity They’re just your excuse to hide from reality You gotta take some chances The world won’t come to you No crystal ball will make your dreams come true Take your own life into your hands Why would you leave it up to chance Waiting for a sign (All that dreaming) It means nothing (All that wishing) It means nothing (All that hoping) it means nothing If you can't get out your own way (All those dreams) Lead to nothing and (All those wishes) Lead to nothing (All that hoping) Leads to nothing If you can’t get out your own way Get out your own way Waiting for a sign (All that dreaming) It means nothing (All that wishing) It means nothing (All that hoping) it means nothing If you can't get out your own way (All those dreams) Lead to nothing and (All those wishes) Lead to nothing (All that hoping) Leads to nothing If you can’t get out your own way Get out your own way Get out your own way Waiting for a sign

Fast Forward 06:47
I don’t know where this is going All I know is where we’ve been And all those days living without you All those nights my world was caving in And I can’t take this anymore Just move on they said, just close that door But it gets harder every day I close my eyes and I can still see your face I can’t bring back all we had But I can’t wait to see you again If I could just reach that farthest star If I could just wish it all to pieces And if I just gave up my whole life Maybe I’d fast forward time And be with you again All those times we had together All those memories fade away So I’ll just keep on fighting with forever To keep you here with me for one more day You know that I won’t leave you stranded I just hope that you can wait And with these tears I’ve shed I promise (I promise you) We’ll meet again, we’ll make our own fate I can’t bring back all we had But I can’t wait to see you again If I could just reach that farthest star If I could just wish it all to pieces And if I just gave up my whole life Maybe I’d fast forward time And be with you again And be with you again If I could just reach that farthest star If I could just wish it all to pieces And if I just gave up my whole life Maybe I’d fast forward time And be with you again And be with you again (Fast forward time) And be with you again [Reach that farthest star] (Fast forward time) And be with you again [Reach that farthest star] (Fast forward time) And be with you again

I woke up alone this morning Just like every other day Feeling there’s gotta be something Something better coming my way I’ll go out alone tonight Cuz there’s a feeling that I just can’t shake And then I saw it in your eyes Something that these words just couldn’t say Hey there baby, why are we waiting It’s just the two of us, congregating The night’s on fire, let’s take it higher We can go until the sun comes up Cuz we don’t ever get nothing at all And tonight’s for us so baby let’s lose it all Cuz it feels so right, and the stars are aligned Baby let’s take a chance and get ready to fall I woke up with you this morning Feeling like I’m finding better days Cuz we just want to make a connection Someone to share the empty space We’ll go out tonight together And we can bring it back to my place But you ain’t gotta stay forever Not unless you want to anyway Hey there baby, I know it’s crazy But we’ve been having these feelings lately It’s me and you, without a clue We can make it up as we go along And we ain’t gotta worry ’bout right or wrong Cuz we don’t ever get nothing at all (at all) And tonight’s for us so baby let’s lose it all Cuz it feels so right, and the stars are aligned Baby let’s take a chance and get ready to fall Days are short, nights are long But I don’t want to be alone Not tonight, not this time And I can feel it coming on We’re gonna need someone to lean on And this just feels so right Cuz we don’t ever get nothing at all And tonight’s for us so baby let’s lose it all Cuz it feels so right, and the stars are aligned Baby let’s take a chance and get ready to fall (Get ready to fall, get ready) I said baby let's take a chance and get ready to fall

I’m standing in the rain Singing counterpoint to Mother Nature’s pain It’s a dangerous game I’m standing on tomorrow Holding on to my childhood sorrow And the years will follow And I’m standing amid debris Of a life I’ve lost to a vengeful sea And now it’s part of history I’m one of them now Though I don’t want to be This life’s not mine now It belongs to history But I’m still standing tall (I’m still standing tall) I’m still standing tall I’m still standing tall (I’m still standing tall) I’m still standing tall And I will not fall I’m standing among the ages Trapped in a book of unwritten pages And the war still wages I’m standing in the past Remembering days from before the wrath Though nothing really lasts I’m standing against the fall Hoping they’ll see those still standing tall Still I can’t do it all This life’s not mine now It belongs to history But I’m still standing tall (I’m still standing tall) I’m still standing tall I’m still standing tall (I’m still standing tall) I’m still standing tall And I will not fall But I’m still standing tall (I’m still standing tall) I’m still standing tall I’m still standing tall (I’m still standing tall) I’m still standing tall And I will not fall (I’m still standing tall) I will not break, there’s too much at stake (I’m still standing tall) No I will not be broken (I’m still standing tall) I will not burn, yeah I can still learn (I’m still standing tall) No I will not be broken

So many miles have come between us And we both know it needs a change The oceans rise and fall beneath us now And I don’t feel like coming home Cuz it feels like I’m A million miles away I’ll be here before you know it And I just wanna say That I was scared and didn’t show it The ups and downs, the turn arounds Have brought us here today But it feels like I’m a million miles away So now I hold you in my arms But we both know it ain’t the same The space between is getting deeper now And I don’t want to be alone Cuz it feels like I'm A million miles away And I’ll be here before you know it And I just wanna say That I was scared and didn’t show it The ups and downs, the turn arounds Have brought us here today But it feels like I’m a million miles away A million miles away Whatever it is we need Whatever it’s for we bleed Here together, still together [x4] Whatever it is we need Whatever it’s for we bleed Here together (here together), we bleed together (we bleed together) [x2] A million miles away And I’ll be here before you know it And I just wanna say That I was scared and didn’t show it The ups and downs, the turn arounds Have brought us here today But it feels like I’m a million miles away It feels like I'm a million miles away A million miles away A million miles away

They always laughed and called us dreamers Their advice was get your head out of the clouds But I think we saw the unspoken truth in their eyes The faded loves and broken dreams of youth (Meanwhile) The airwaves, they sang a different tune (On the radio) Dreams of escape and dreams that would come true (It gave us hope) That maybe someday we’d get out of this place (The open road) A new horizon, or even outer space And when the grind would feel like it became too much We’d hit that old dusty highway Singing at the top of our lungs They played our favorite song And it taught us what we knew all along And the only thing that mattered was just holding on And they played our favorite song And we held on At times the world would set us adrift You went back to school, I picked up extra shifts Sometimes I’d hear you crying when I came down the stairs (Seeing you) So down and out was more than I could bear (Meanwhile) Our favorite album told a different story (On the radio) It’s like those songs were made just for you and me (It gave us hope) It gave us strength to dream of being free (And paved the road) To a brand new world of possibility And when our favorite band came rolling through town The world would fade away as we got lost in their sound They played our favorite song, and all our fears were gone The only thing that mattered was just holding on And they played our favorite song And we held on And we held on, and on, and on, and on Big cities or small towns, it doesn’t matter where you are now When the radio plays your song, we’re all just holding on They played our favorite song And made us feel like we belong And the only thing that mattered was just holding on And they played our favorite song And we held on
