Woke up this morning To a bright and sunny day Made a move on my lady She took it all the way Fried eggs for breakfast And I never even broke a yoke Made my way into work They laughed at all my jokes Life is not this easy This feeling's kind of strange There's something in the air Might be the winds of change So, when they ring my number I'll be slightly out of range... Cause that's the blues callin' Went to the see the boss man To ask about a raise He said, no problem Even offered up some praise I had him on the spot And things were going so swell I asked for more time off He agreed to that as well. Chorus When everything is going your way Thank your lucky stars Cause it doesn't happen everyday But when those stars start falling And good luck goes a stray Run for cover Get out of the way Cause that's the blues callin' I made it to my gig At this dive up on the hill The place was jammed with people It gave me such a thrill They knew all my songs They danced and sang along I was high on the feeling I could not do no wrong Chorus

Keep on driving, the sky is getting clearer Everything's a blur in the rear view mirror I'm not really sure what's waiting around the bend We will find out together my forever friend The road will be long, many bridges to cross Just aim for the sun, we will never get lost If there is ever weather that won't let us pass Hop in the driver's seat and step on the gas And start runnin' breaking the chains Free from the reins Runnin, changing the scenes Chasing our dreams Runnin' , Runnin' free from the reins Runnin' chasing our dreams Life's too short to just breath Grab a hold of each moment cause time is a thief Keep your eyes on the prize and reach for the stars No map to guide us just follow our hearts Stir up some dust on an old dirt road Do what we want instead of doing what we're told Write our own pages, dance our own dance Be free from the cages, go take a chance And start runnin' breaking the chains Free from the reins Runnin, changing the scenes Chasing our dreams Runnin' , Runnin' free from the reins Runnin' chasing our dreams

Darkness falls and the sun rises fast As the fishermen try their luck with a cast Hoping their bounty is a good as the last While the church bells chime in time for mass It's just another day in the shadow of the steeple Here with these incredible Mexican people. They're working their way to a mid day siesta Shaking off the remnance of last night's fiesta When you're living each day like it could be your last That bottle of tequila...man, it goes down so fast It's just another day in the shadow of the steeple Here with these incredible Mexican People They honour the living and they cherish the dead Taking care of business with either silver or lead Bound and determined to stay one step ahead Carving out a path where other's fear to tread It's just another day in the shadow of the steeple Here with these incredible Mexican People

Something's sneaking thru the alley Into our hearts and minds Stealing all that's dear to us Hell, it even took John Prine How could we have been so blind Not to see the clues Here we stand on shakey ground One foot in the blues When the world stops turning we need to shine. People helping people out on the front line. An old man lonely, a young baby cries The chips might be down but love never dies. Now is our chance to look at life From a different point of view Change the things that we've done wrong It starts with me and you When the world stops turning we need to shine. People helping people out on the front line. An old man lonely, a young baby cries The chips might be down but love never dies. I hear that love conquers all Let's put it to the test. How and when this thing might end Is anybody's guess. When the world stops turning we need to shine. People helping people out on the front line. An old man lonely, a young baby cries The chips might be down but love never dies. Love Never Dies....
