If home is where the heart is
I wear it on my sleeve
Momma told me that I was born to leave
Daddy said goodbye to me
Told me, "Son, wherever you go is where I'll be"
If life is for the dreamers
I can't be the only one
Days are long beneath the golden sun
Night falls right into my arms
Singing these songs until my voice is gone
If I never make it back
(Send my regards to future ex lovers)
If I slip through the cracks
(Give my love to my sisters and brothers)
I’ll wear my heart on my sleeve
Wherever I’ll be
Home is where you are when you’re with me
Home is where you are when you’re with me
If nature is how love grows
I found the rivers are wild
Sister told me she’s expecting her first child
Brother-in-law named him Wyatt Clyde
A boy who will run through the countryside
If I never make it back
Send my regards to future ex lovers
If I fall through the cracks
Give my love to my sisters and brothers
I’ll wear my heart on my sleeve
Wherever I’ll be
Home is where you are when you’re with me
Home is where you are when you’re with me
(Instrumental Bridge)
If I never make it back
Send my regards to future ex lovers
If I fall through the cracks
Give my love to my sisters and brothers
I’ll wear my heart on my sleeve
Wherever I’ll be
Home is where you are when you’re with me
Home is where you are when you’re with me

Journey of the bearded man
Through the Alaskan wilderness
Strength comes in numbers but he's alone
Fighting his demons with an iron lung
Past the Siberian desert sands
He stumbles upon an establishment
Inside the house, a room full of fiends
Waiting to feed on his shaky knees
With his revolving gun
He counts down from six to one
Grabs a drink with a touch of love
Then over the hills he goes
I do not know his name
He is just a bearded man
Little does he even know
Where his journey will go
Journey of the bearded man
An illustrious tale of redemption
Tommy took his one and only friend
To the grave, he swore he'd avenge
Against all odds in gale force winds
The lights went out to limit his presence
Stormed the brig and set it ablaze
To complete the deed he'd promised
With a sigh of relief, he left that day
Across the Atlantic Ocean
Back home to his native Ireland
I do not know his name
He is just a bearded man
Little does he even know
Where his journey will go
So three cheers to the man with no fear
A swan song to the life he will leave behind
The impression you give is what they receive
He'd say, "anything is possible if you believe"
I do not know his name
He is just a bearded man
Little does he even know
Where his journey will go
I do not know his name
He is just a bearded man
Little does he even know
Where his journey will go

Sinners & Saints (Live)

Don't leave me here
If you go away
Things will change
I'll never be the same
Don't leave me here on my own
If you go away
Things are bound to change
I'll never be the same
If only you'd decide to stay
I'll be the sinner to your saint
They'll be singing your praise
Till the end of days
Won't you give me one more chance?
To show you how I can be a better man
Won't you give me one more chance?
To be everything you’ve ever wanted
Everything you’ve ever needed
Don't leave me here all alone
If you go away
Things will really change
I'll never be the same
Don't leave me here
If you go away
Things will change
I'll never be the same
If you go away
Things will change
I'll never be the same

I took my love, I took it down
Climbed a mountain and I turned around
And I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills
'Til the landslide brought it down
Oh, mirror in the sky
What is love?
Can the child within my heart rise above?
Can I sail through the changin' ocean tides?
Can I handle the seasons of my life?
Well, I've been afraid of changin'
'Cause I've built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Even children get older
And I'm getting older, too
Well, I've been afraid of changin'
'Cause I've built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Even children get older
And I'm getting older, too
Oh, I'm getting older, too
I took my love, I took it down
I climbed a mountain and I turned around
And if you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well the landslide will bring it down
And if you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well the landslide will bring it down
Oh, the landslide will bring it down

Loneliness (Live)

Loneliness will come
It will come
It can’t be stopped by anyone
Loneliness will come
It will come
It’ll wash over your broken bones
And oh, it will go
If you can let go of the things that have hurt you most
And oh, it will go
When you find yourself in the arms of another lover
Love her
In the arms of a lover
Love her
Loneliness will come
It will come
When you’re lost in the darkness
Loneliness will come
It will come
It can’t be stopped by anyone
And oh, it will go
If you can let go of the things that have hurt you most
And oh, it will go
When you find yourself in the arms of another lover
Love her
In the arms of a lover
Love her
It will come, it will come
It will come, it will come
And oh, it will go
If you can let go of the things that have hurt you most
And oh, it will go
When you find yourself in the arms of another lover
Love her
In the arms of a lover
Love her
As it finds you on your knees
Praying for inner peace
It will come
It will come

God, it’s hard to have an honest heart
It’s hard to have an honest heart
When all of my demons want to rip it apart
God, it’s hard to have an honest heart
God, it’s hard to have an honest heart
It’s hard to have an honest heart
When all of my demons want to tear it apart
God, it’s hard to have an honest heart

God Forbid (Live)

God forbid you ever need
Anything amongst the trees
Lost in colors of the leaves
As you float away from me
God forbid I ever dream
Without you lying next to me
Sleeping sideways in the street
Making faces in your sleep
I’ve been searching for the truth
Weaving in and out of view
Candid photographs of me and you
Prove we were more than just a mood
You’ve got all of my old notes
Boxes filled with anecdotes
Flickering lights hang above the road
On moonlit drives heading home
What more do you want from me
I’ve given you everything
What more could you want from me
I’ve given you everything
What more do you want from me
I’ve given you everything
What more could you want from me
I’ve given you everything

Who's gonna love your baby, gonna love your baby
Who’s gonna love your baby, gonna love your baby
Kiss her head
Sweet baby girl
Kiss her head
She’s your sweet baby girl
Born into this beautiful world
Life is an incredible ride
We live, we breathe, and we die
Who's gonna love your baby, gonna love your baby
Who’s gonna love your baby, gonna love your baby
Kiss his head
Sweet baby boy
Kiss his head
He’s your sweet baby boy
Born into this dangerous world
Life is an incredible ride
We live, we breathe, and we die
Who's gonna love your baby, gonna love your baby
Who’s gonna love your baby, gonna love your baby
Their lips are bound to meet
Fate has its way
Winding paths converge eventually
Who’s gonna love your baby, gonna love your baby
Who’s gonna love your baby, gonna love your baby
