Ask The Mountains
Dont come after

Dont come after
Dont come after
Please dont follow me along
When you read this Ill be gone
Ask the mountains
Springs and fountains
Why couldnt this go on?
Couldnt our happiness go on?
Ask the sun that lightens up the sky
When the night gives in, to tell you why
Ask the mountains
Wild woods, highlands
Ask the green in the woods and the trees
The cold breeze coming in from the sea
Springs and fountains
Ask the mountains
Springs and fountains
Ask the mountains
Springs and fountains
Ask the mountains
Springs and fountains
Ask the mountains
Ask the sun that lightens up the sky
When the night gives in, to tell you why
Tell the mountains
Springs and fountains
Why couldnt this go on?
Couldnt our happiness go on?
Why couldnt this go on?
Couldnt our happiness go on?

Hero
Hidden track on some versions of no rest for the wicked
I dont want to be a hero
I dont ever want to let you down
No I dont want to let you down
I can try to take you higher
But I dont want to wear your broken crown
You know it brings me down
Dont think youll ever understand me
I dont even understand me
Dont have the power to anoint you
And I dont want to disappoint the fools no more
The fools no more
I couldnt answer all your questions
And if youre lost I couldnt find the way
I couldnt find your way
You know youll have to face the music
You change your tune, you dont know what to play
So dont you run away
Everybodys talkin crazy
So think I am a ____ maybe
I dont want to hear about it
Dont want to have to scream and shout it
Fools no more
The fools no more
So I dont want to be a hero
Dont want to sit upon your crippled thrown
Ive got a life of my own
I am not your destination
Or a road thats gonna lead you home
So baby please dont go
Please dont go
Please dont go
Please dont go...

I Just Couldnt Say No
Written by randy owen, teddy gentry, and greg fowler
Youve got me achin more than I should
My heart is breakin, oh dont it feel good
cause I know for certain, were magic in love
Youve got me hurtin, cause I cant get enough
I just couldnt say no even though I should
Even if I did, wonder if you could
I just couldnt say no when your eyes say yes, yes
I just cant say no, Ive tried my best
The way you tease me makes me want you more
You purr like a kitten but I hear you roar
Your body language is talkin to me
Right here in the darkness, its so plain to see
I just couldnt say no even though I should
Even if I did, wonder if you could
I just couldnt say no, no, when your eyes say yes, yes
I just cant say no, Ive tried my best, I just couldnt say no
I just couldnt say no, no, when your eyes say yes, yes
I just cant say no, Ive tried my best
I just couldnt say no, Ive tried my best

Heaven Is One Step Away
By eric clapton
We searched all through the night.
I couldnt find it; you couldnt find it.
I knew something wasnt right.
I couldnt find it; you couldnt find it.
And they say heaven is one step away.
Heaven is one step away.
And then there came the dawn:
I couldnt find it; you couldnt find it.
I just had to carry on.
I couldnt find it; you couldnt find it.
Chorus
We didnt leave till a quarter to three.
All your friends, they were laughing at me.
I dont get it, I dont understand;
Who is that man holding your hand?
First verse
Chorus
Heaven is one step away.
Heaven is one step away.
Heaven is one step away.
Heaven is one step away.

Stars Of Warburton
I, I was, I was shaken down in a toy town
He, hes out there
You know its kennedys shadow from white cross to michigan
Atms, are in the air, oh yeah machines they are spinning out everywhere
The speaker is speaking
Can you hear the sound
The listener is listening as he hits the ground
The medium or the message but theres no one around
I couldnt believe
I couldnt believe the stars of warburton were waiting for me
We were dancing, we were dancing on the plain
Were looking through the window didnt see any buffalo there
We got our pipe dreams, they went up in smoke dreams
Burn it clean in the climate control, of your hypermark malls
Dont wanna talk about elvis presley
Dont wanna see his white shoes walking around
And around and around over here
The press barons acting up the mainframes are down
Newspapers crawling around on the ground
The medium or the message still theres no one around
I couldnt believe
I couldnt believe the stars of warburton were waiting for me
Over the hills and mountains we go, so far, so far away
For the ring of the axe on the ironbark, for the smell of the wallaby stew
From the golden reefs to the sandstone cliffs
Came the sheep of the mallee plain
The wind blew the soil to the orient, well be shouting to the skies again
I couldnt believe
I couldnt believe the stars of warburton were waiting for me
I couldnt believe
I couldnt believe the stars of warburton were living in me
Raining down on me, were washing down on me

Say It Isnt So
Theres no santa claus
It was all a lie
No man in the moon
Just a big light in the sky
I hear disneyland
Might lose mickey mouse
In some giant hostile corporate shake-up
Tell me its a nightmare
Please wake me up
(say it isnt so)
I found a book of matches
]from someplace weve never been
How come you hang the phone up
The minute I walk in
Last night I had this dream
That I was losing you
I woke up in a cold sweat shaking
Rescue me my heart is breaking
Chorus:
Say it isnt so (tell me its not true)
Say it isnt so (I believe in you)
Tell me its a lie (I dont need no proof)
They did it all with strings say everythings alright (couldnt be, not
You)
Say it isnt so
Superman dont fly
Elvis presley died
They deep fried the king
Like some tacky cheesy bathing beauty
Dancing on the beach in a bad b-movie
Chorus 1:
Say it isnt so (tell me its not true)
Say it isnt so (I believe in you)
Tell me its a lie (I dont need no proof)
Say everythings alright (couldnt be, not you)
Chorus 2:
Say it isnt so (dont give up on me)
Say it isnt so (dont give up on you)
Get me through the night (well make it through)
Make everything alright (couldnt be, not you)
Say it isnt so..
Chorus 1:
Say it isnt so (tell me its not true)
Say it isnt so (I believe in you)
Tell me its a lie (I dont need no proof)

Get me through the night (well make it through)

Heart Away
(robin wilson)
Heres a little something that I brought here for you
It aint much but it might just do
Fairly serious could hardly say
That I couldnt give my heart away
I couldnt give my heart away
Its never enough to feel and say
Throw my promises away
Several things that I could do
But I couldnt give my heart to you
I couldnt give my heart to you
Smokes on the table the matches are lost
Theres room in the back of the bar
Fairly serious could hardly say
That I couldnt give my heart away
I couldnt give my heart away
Aw, its not really serious but I should prove
That I dont mean what I might not do
Not that you wanted it anyway
But I couldnt give my heart away
I couldnt give my heart away...

Closer To Fine
Im trying to tell you something about my life
Maybe give me insight between black and white
The best thing you ever done for me
Is to help me take my life less seriously
Its only life afterall
Well darkness has a hunger thats insatiable
And lightness has a call thats hard to hear
I wrap my fear around me like a blanket
I sailed my ship of safety till I sank it
Im crawling on your shore
I went to the doctor
I went to the mountains
I looked to the children
I drank from the fountains
Theres more than one answer to these questions
Pointing me in a crooked line
The less I seek my source for some definitive
The closer I am to fine
The closer I am to fine
I went to see the doctor of philosophy
With a poster of rasputin and a beard down to his knee
He never did marry or see a b-grade movie
He graded my performance
He said he could see through me
I spent four years prostrate to the higher mind
Got my paper and I was free
I went to the doctor
I went to the mountains
I looked to the children
I drank from the fountains
Theres more than one answer to these questions
Pointing me in a crooked line
The less I seek my source for some definitive
The closer I am to fine
The closer I am to fine
I stopped by the bar at 3 a.m.
To seek solace in a bottle or possibly a friend
I woke up with a headache like my head against a board
Twice as cloudy as Id been the night before
And I went in seeking clarity.
I went to the doctor
I went to the mountains
I looked to the children
I drank from the fountains
We go to the doctor
We go to the mountains
We look to the children
We drink from the fountains
Yeah, we go to the bible
We go through the workout
We read up on revival
And we stand up for the lookout
Theres more than one answer to these questions
Pointing me in a crooked line
The less I seek my source for some definitive
The closer I am to fine
The closer I am to fine
The closer I am to fine

Back 2 Good
Its nothing, its so normal you
Just stand there I could say so much
But I dont go there cuz I dont want to
I was thinking if you were lonely
Maybe we could leave here and no one would know
At least not to the point that we would think so
Everyone here, knows everyone here is thinking about
Somebody else
Its best if we all keep it under our heads
I couldnt tell, if anyone here was feeling
The way I do
But Im lonely now, and I dont know how
To get it back to good
I dont mean that, you own me
This aint no good, in fact its phony
As hell
But things worked out just like you wanted too
If you see me out you dont know me
Try to turn your head, try to give me some room
To figure out just what Im going to do
And everyone here, hates everyone here for
Doing just like
They do
Its best if we all keep this quite instead
And I couldnt tell, why everyone here was
Doing me like
They do
But Im sorry now, and I dont know how
To get it back to good
Everyone here, is wondering what its like to be with
Somebody else
Everyone heres to blame, everyone here
Gets caught up in the pleasure of the pain,
Everyone hides
Shades of shame, but looking inside were the same, were
The same
And were all grown now, but we dont know
How
To get it back to good
Everyone here, knows everyone here is thinking bout
Somebody else
Its best if we all keep this under our heads
I couldnt tell, if anyone here was feeling
The way I do
But its over now, and I dont know how, its over now

Just Couldnt Wait
I miss her face, but the girl left seven years ago.
Guess I never shouldve let her go.
Thats how I feel because I love her so.
But Im afraid that she will never know.
She just couldnt wait, she said she couldnt wait til some day.
She just couldnt wait, my baby just couldnt wait, no.
She said she couldnt wait til some day, til some day.
Oh, tell me now, where do the broken-hearted go from here.
You missed her love and now youre steering clear.
I aint afraid of nothin but my fear.
The fear that she might see this rollin tear.
She just couldnt wait, she said she couldnt wait til sunday.
She just couldnt wait, my baby just couldnt wait, no.
She just couldnt wait, my baby just couldnt wait, no.
Oh she couldnt wait til sunday no, til sunday.
She just couldnt wait, my baby just couldnt wait, no.
She said she couldnt wait til sunday.

She said she just couldnt wait.
You know she just couldnt wait, no.

Then There Are The Mountains
On a mountain's peak is there peace?
Mountains that overlook the quiet prairie.
Mountains that borders life in rural counties.
Mountains chiseled by years of wind and rain.
Mountain winds creep keeping all secrets.
Mountains a kin to the lower hills of death.
Mountains at the height of glamour baked in sunshine.
Mountains that reach for more majestic planes.
Mountains giving to the ridges, valleys and cliffs.
Mountains in spring the fulfillment of adventure and dream.
Mountains which can shelter one from storm.
Mountains an enduring symbol in poetry.
Mountains which inhabit the calls of the wild.
Mountains of spectacle, below the bending roads between.
Mountains embracing, magnifying the sounds of river.
Mountains the stellar monuments of time.

I Am The Resurrection
Down down, you bring me down
I hear you knocking at my door and I cant sleep at night
Your face, it has no place
No room for you inside my house I need to be alone
Dont waste your words I dont need anything from you
I dont care where youve been or what you plan to do
Turn turn, I wish youd learn
Theres a time and place for everything Ive got to get it through
Cut loose, youre no use
I couldnt stand another second in your company
Dont waste your words I dont need anything from you
I dont care where youve been or what you plan to do
Stone me, why cant you see
Youre a no-one nowhere washed up baby whod look better dead
Your tongue is far too long
I dont like the way it sucks and slurps upon my every word
Dont waste your words I dont need anything from you
I dont care where youve been or what you plan to do
I am the resurrection and I am the light
I couldnt ever bring myself to hate you as Id like
I am the resurrection and I am the light
I couldnt ever bring myself to hate you as Id like

Theres Gold In The Mountains
(words & music by giant - baum - kaye)
There are lots of girls in the mountains
And theyre worth their weight in gold
When theyre in my arms with their lovin charms
A treasure chest I hold
Well theres gold in the mountains, love in the hills
I dont need no city women with their diamonds and frills
Theres gold in the mountains and oh what scenery
The prettiest girls I ever did see
Theres such beauty there in the mountains
You can feel your knees growin weak
Every single boy feels the height of joy
When he climbs that mountain peak
Well theres gold in the mountains, love in the hills
I dont need no city women with their diamonds and frills
Theres gold in the mountains and oh what scenery
The prettiest girls I ever did see
I said theres gold in the mountains, love in the hills
I dont need no city women with their diamonds and frills
Theres gold in the mountains and oh what scenery

The Refuge
I will lift mine eyes to the mountains,
To the mountains whence cometh my aid;
I shall drink of the Mercy's crystal fountains,
And shall not be afraid.
St. Patrick and St. Bride be with me,
And all the saints of the Gael;
The wings of Heaven above and beneath me,
The dead of Inisfail.
The caves of the mountains shall receive me,
I shall lie as at a mother's breast
The white food the King of Heaven shall give me,
And the wine of Heaven for feast.
Where the eagle screams over Nephin,
Where the Reek of Patrick looks on the isles,
li-orn the voices of the world that fret and deafen,
From the evil in her smiles,
I shall creep, and the mountains will hold me,
As a lamb that runs with the ewe,
The warmth of the mother shall enfold me,
I shall have milk and dew.

But it better or people will wonder
And I couldnt care less if it never stopped rainin

You can laugh and stare
Say sour grapes
But I dont care
I couldnt care less if I didnt have a friend
cept people would say I was crazy
And I wouldnt work cause I dont need money
But the same folks would say I was lazy

I was gonna leave her anyway

Dont mean a thing to day

Wild Horses
Childhood living
Is easy to do
The things you wanted
Well I bought them for you
And graceless lady
You know who I am
You know I cant let you
Ah slide through my hands
Wild horses
Couldnt drag me away
Wild, wild horses
Couldnt drag me away
I watched you suffer
A dull aching pain
Now youve decided
To show me the same
No sweeping exits
Or offstage lines
Can make me feel bitter
Or treat you unkind
Wild horses
Couldnt drag me away
Wild, wild horses
Couldnt drag me away
I know I dreamed you
A sin and a lie
I have my freedom
But I dont have much time
Faith has been broken
Tears must be cried
Come on lets do some living
After we die
Wild horses
Couldnt drag me away
Wild, wild horses
Well ride them someday

Where That Loves Been Gone
Sometimes I wonder whos making love to you now
Now that its been so long
Yes sometimes I wonder whos making love to you now
Now that its been so long
Well I dont know where or when you found out
Where that loves been gone
Remember that winter we went walking in the snow
Now its been and gone
Yes, I remember the winter we went walking in the snow
Snow thats been and gone
And right across the country still Ive got to go
Wherever that loves been gone
But any old way theres a smile on my face
Theres a smile that I just cant hide
Though Im missing you now like I never knew how
I couldnt forget you if I tried
Dont it make you wonder, but I wouldnt worry no more
Standing by the side of the road
Oh dont it make you wonder, but I wouldnt worry no more
Just standing by the side of the road
Into the night you just pick up and go
Youll see where the loves been gone
But any old way theres a smile on my face
Thers a smile that I just couldnt hide
Thoush Im missing you now like I never knew how
I couldnt forget you if I tried
I couldnt forget you

I couldnt forget you if I tried
