See the dark night has come down on us
The world is livin??™ in its dream
But now we know that we can wake up from this sleep
And set out on the journey
Find a ship to take us on the way.

The time has come to trust that guiding light
And leavin??™ all the rest behind
We??™ll take the road that leads down to the waterside
And set out on the journey
Find a ship to take us on the way.

And we??™ll sail out on the water
Yes we??™ll feel the sea grow
Yes we??™ll meet out on the water
Where are all strangers are known.

If you travel blindly, if you fall
The truth is there to set you free
And when your heart can see just one thing in this life
We??™ll set out on the journey
Find a ship to take us on the way.

And we??™ll sail out on the water
Yes we??™ll feel the sea grow
Yes we??™ll meet out on the water
Where are all strangers are known.

See the dark night has come down on us
The world is livin??™ in its dream
But now we know that we can wake up from this sleep
And set out on the journey
Find a ship to take us on the way.

And we??™ll sail out on the water
Yes we??™ll feel the sea grow
Yes we??™ll meet out on the water
Where are all strangers are known.

Winding your way down on Baker Street
Light in your head and dead on your feet
Well another crazy day, you??™ll drink the night away
And forget about everything.

This city desert makes you feel so cold
It??™s got so many people but it??™s got no soul
And it??™s taken you so long to find out you were wrong
When you thought it held everything.

You used to think that it was so easy,
You used to say that it was so easy
But you??™re tryin??™, you??™re tryin??™ now.
Another year and then you??™d be happy
Just one more year and then you??™d be happy
But you??™re cryin??™, you??™re cryin??™ now.

Way down the street there??™s a light in his place
He opens the door, he??™s got that look on his face
And he asks you where you??™ve been, you tell him who you??™ve seen
And you talk about anything.

He??™s got this dream about buyin??™ some land
He??™s gonna give up the booze and the one night stands
And then he??™ll settle down, in some quiet little town
And forget about everything.

But you know he??™ll always keep movin??™
You know he??™s never gonna stop movin??™
Cause he??™s rollin??™, he??™s the rollin??™ stone.
And when you wake up it??™s a new morning
The sun is shining, it??™s a new morning
But you??™re going, you??™re going home.

You know I need your love, you got that hold over me
As long as I got your love, you know that I??™ll never leave
When I wanted you to share my life, I had no doubt in my mind
And it??™s been you, woman, right down the line.

I know how much I lean on you, only you can see
The changes that I??™ve been through have left their mark on me
You??™ve been as constant as the Northern Star, the brightest light that shines
It??™s been you, woman, right down the line.

I just wanna say this is my way
Of telling you everything I could never say before
Yeah this is my way of telling you that everyday I??™m loving you (so much more)

???Cause you believed in me through my darkest night
Put something better inside of me, you brought me into the light
Threw away all those crazy dreams, I put them all behind
And it was you, woman, right down the line.

I just wanna say this is my way
Of telling you everything I could never say before
Yeah this is my way of telling you that everyday I??™m loving you (so much more)

If I should doubt myself, if I??™m losing ground
I won??™t turn to someone else, they??™d only let me down
When I wanted you to share my life, I had no doubt in my mind
And it??™s been you, woman, right down the line.

Now the night train is waitin??™ to take me away
And I??™m still feelin??™ guilty cause you??™re wanting me to stay
Well I know, how I know, it??™s harder on you
But you said it yourself, there??™s nothing else we could do.

When the wheels start turnin??™, takin??™ me through the night
Out there in the darkness, there??™s a star shinin??™ bright
And it makes me feel better just to see it up there
I hope you??™re thinkin??™ about it, hope you know I still care.

So goodnight, yeah goodnight
Goodnight train is gonna carry me home
So goodnight, yeah goodnight
Goodnight train is gonna carry me home.

Now I know you??™ve been waiting, but I??™ll be seeing you soon
Meanwhile I just lay here staring at the moon
And a light made of silver, through my window it creeps
And the train keeps on rollin??™, and it just rocks me to sleep.

So goodnight, yeah goodnight
Goodnight train is gonna carry me home
So goodnight, yeah goodnight
Goodnight train is gonna carry me home

So goodnight, yeah goodnight
Goodnight train is gonna carry me home.
So goodnight, yeah goodnight
Goodnight train is gonna carry me home.

Now from city to city, it??™s four hundred miles
And I??™m bound to wake up every once in a while
And it??™s then that I call out to some higher power
And then I??™ll go back to sleep cause I??™ll be home in an hour.

So goodnight (goodnight), yeah goodnight (goodnight)
Goodnight train is gonna carry me home (goodnight)
So goodnight (goodnight), yeah goodnight (goodnight)
Goodnight train is gonna carry me home (goodnight)
So goodnight (goodnight), yeah goodnight (goodnight)
Goodnight train is gonna carry me home (goodnight)
So goodnight (goodnight), yeah goodnight (goodnight)
Goodnight train is gonna carry me home (goodnight)

(fade)
I??™m going home (ooooh) tonight...

Stealin??™ time, I??™ve been stealin??™ time
But I don??™t feel guilty, cause the time was mine
I kept down low, kept down low
I walked right out, I had to let it go.

Stealin??™ time, I??™ve been stealin??™ time
Forgot about everything and eased my mind
Stealin??™ time, I was stealin??™ time
But now I know it??™s time to cross that line.

I watched the sky, watched the sky
Every day I let the world roll by
Sun and rain, sun and the rain
It felt so good to know that magic again.

Stealin??™ time, I??™ve been stealin??™ time
Forgot about everything and eased my mind
Stealin??™ time, I was stealin??™ time
But now I know it??™s time to cross that line.

Wait my love, wait my love
We??™ll soon be brighter than the sun up above
Wait and see, wait and see
Forget about everything except you and me.

Stealin??™ time, I??™ve been stealin??™ time
Forgot about everything and eased my mind
Stealin??™ time, I was stealin??™ time
But now I know it??™s time to cross that line.

(fade)
Roll on, cross that line, been so long, stealin??™ time
Roll on, cross that line, been so long, stealin??™ time.

Oh Mattie open up the door, that??™s right I??™m home again
You??™ve got a big surprise in store, turn ???round and count to ten
Wait ???til you see what I got you, well you??™ll say it??™s a magic thing
It??™s like an old mandolin man, you just wind him up and he??™ll start to sing.

I??™ve been away for quite a while, and I want to hear all your news
Speak to me, let me see you smile, cause I??™ve had those homesick blues
When I go down to that city I just don??™t know wrong from right
When I go back to you Mattie, well you make me see the light.

Love is a singular thing, it can take you up or bring you down
Yes love is a song that I sing, so come on now Mattie listen to the sound
When you grow up we??™ll sit and talk of how things used to be
I??™ll be a grand old man of rock with all these memories.

(Yeah, night and day and day)

Wakin??™ up here on a rainy day
I swore last time that I would stay away
I came down here to talk to you
I said this time I might get through.

I heard us speak but all the words were dead
We talked all night and left it all unsaid
So we agree to disagree
At least we got our memory.

Whatever??™s written in your heart, that??™s all that matters
You??™ll find a way to say it all someday (yeah)
Whatever??™s written in your heart, that??™s all that matters
Yeah, night and day, night and day.

You??™ve got your secrets yeah and I??™ve got mine
We??™ve played this game now for a long long time
You don??™t lean on anyone
You never had no place to run.

You never wanted me to get too close
We love and hate the ones we need the most
I tried to find a way to you
One thing I could say to you.

Whatever??™s written in your heart, that??™s all that matters
You??™ll find a way to say it all someday (yeah)
Whatever??™s written in your heart, that??™s all that matters
Yeah, night and day, night and day.

Maybe I??™ve always set my sights too high
You take the easy way and still get by
I know there ain??™t no special way
We all get there anyway.

I heard us speak but all the words were dead
Talked all night and left it all unsaid
So we agree to disagree
At least we got our memory.

Whatever??™s written in your heart, that??™s all that matters
You??™ll find a way to say it all someday (yeah)
Whatever??™s written in your heart, that??™s all that matters
Yeah, night and day, night and day.

(fade)
Yeah, Night and day and day
Yeah, Night and day and day (whatever??™s written in your heart)

This silver bird takes me ???cross the sky
Just one more hour and I??™ll be home and dry
???Cross the ocean, way above the clouds I come stealin??™.

Feelin??™ tired, but I feel good
Cause I did everything I said I would

Wake up my love, the sun is shinin??™ out that blue sky up above
It??™s a brand new day, let??™s walk outside and let that breeze blow all our cares away.

You know that way back there in that city life
We??™ve been strangers for so long
Now that I feel like I know you again
I want to stay.

So long ago (yeah), we had a love so warm and bright when we had just begun
That was my last dream, since then I??™ve watched the rest crumble one by one.

Since we??™ve been on this island yeah it??™s felt so right
It??™s gettin??™ closer now everyday
Now that I feel like I know you again
I want to stay.

(sha la la sha la la)

You know that on my own I don??™t make it alone
I need someone who needs me
I only know that wherever you are
I want to be.

But from now on, we won??™t worry about a thing, yeah the past is gone
This is our last day (yeah), we??™re gonna make sweet love before we sail away.

Well here I am, back in town
Just as the night is comin??™ down
Warm wind blowin??™ through the trees
I watch them swing, I watch them sway
Lie here waiting for the day.

Sleep won??™t come, I need a drink
Stop my head, don??™t wanna think
Wishing I could be with you
But I know you??™re so far away
And I??™m here waiting for the day.

Water of life pour your light down on me
Take me out of this darkness, sweet star of the sea
Water so sweet you can open my eyes
You can bring down the rain on this desert so dry.

Out on the street, shadows fall
Silence speaks, I hear it call
City of the living dead
Count the lights on the motorway
Lie here waiting for the day (alright).

Water of life pour your light down on me
Take me out of this darkness, sweet star of the sea
Water so sweet you can open my eyes
You can bring down the rain on this desert so dry.

Yes here I am, back in town
Just as the night is comin??™ down
Warm wind blowin??™ through the trees
I watch them swing, I watch them sway
Lie here waiting for the day (alright)
