Bounce Lyrics




1. Undivided

.

That was my brother lost in the rubble

That was my sister lost in the crush

That was our mothers, those were our children

That was our fathers, that was each one of us

A million prayers to God above

A million tears make an ocean of

.

Chorus:

One for love

One for truth

One for me, one for you

.

I found spirit, they couldn't ruin it

I found courage in the smoke and dust

I found faith in the songs you silenced

Deep down it's ringing out in each of us

Yeah... yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

.

Chorus:

One for love

One for truth

One for me, one for you

.

Where we once were divided, now we stand united

We stand as one... undivided.

How many hands? How many hearts?

How many dreams been torn apart?

Enough, enough... the time has come to rise back as

.

Chorus:

One for love

One for truth

One for me, one for you

.

Where we once were divided now we stand united

We stand as one... undivided.

.

Undivided.

Undivided.

.

One for love

One for truth

One for me, one for you

Where we once were divided, now we stand united

We stand as one... undivided.

2. Everyday I used to be the kind of guy Who'd never let you look inside I'd smile when I was crying I had nothing but to a lot to lose Thought I had a lot to prove In my life there's no denying Goodbye to all my yesterdays Goodbye, so long, I'm on my way Chorus: I had enough of crying, bleeding, sweating, dying Hear me when I say, gonna live my life everyday I'm gonna touch the sky, spread these wings and fly I ain't here to play Gonna live my life everyday Change, everybody's feelin' strange Never gonna be the same Makes you wonder how the world keeps turning Life, learning how to live my life Learning how to pick my fights Take my shots while I'm still burning Goodbye to all those rainy nights Goodbye, so long, I'm moving on Chorus: I've had enough of crying, bleeding, sweating, dying Hear me when I say, gonna live my life everyday I'm gonna touch the sky, spread these wings and fly I ain't here to play Gonna live my life everyday Hit the gas, take the wheel, I just made myself a deal There ain't nothing gonna get in my way Everyday Guitar Solo Goodbye, so long, I'm moving on Chorus: I've had enough of crying, bleeding, sweating, dying Hear me when I say, gonna live my life everyday I'm gonna touch the sky and spread these wings and fly I ain't here to play Gonna live my life everyday 3. The Distance There's a train out in the distance, destination still unknown Far away where no one's waiting, so far from home, so far from home There's a rose outside your window, the first snow is falling down Like that lonesome whistle blowing I keep on going, keep on going... Chorus: Close your eyes and see my blue skies breaking through these dark clouds You are the light In my mind I see your red dress and your arms are reaching through the night I'll never give up the fight I'll go the distance There's a thread that runs between us pulling 'cross this great divide It's only there for the believers Don't stop believing, don't stop believing Chorus: Close your eyes and see my blue skies breaking through these dark clouds You are the light In my mind I see your red dress and your arms are reaching through the night I'll never give up the fight I'll go the distance, I'll go the distance There's a neverending story that begins with you and I Like the rose outside your window Don't let it die, don't let it die Chorus: Close your eyes and see my blue skies breaking through these dark clouds You are the light In my mind I see your red dress and your arms are reaching through the night Close your eyes and see my blue skies breaking through these dark clouds You are the light In my mind I see your red dress and my arms are reaching through the night I'll never give up the fight I'll go the distance 4. Joey Joey Keys was from my neighborhood Some would say that he was bad and Joe thought that was good Joey got the name "Keys" picking locks He never really robbed no one; it sure amused the cops Joey's parents owned a restaurant After closing time they'd give us almost anything we'd want I never cared that Joey Keys was slow Though he couldn't read or write too well but we'd talk all night long. Come on, come on, come on What you gonna do with your life? Come on, come on, come on Chasing sparks in the nights His old man said tomorrow is a ride that goes nowhere But I'll pull some strings, get blackbird wings And break us out of there Chorus: Hey Joey C'mon tell me 'bout your dreams Tell me all the sights you're gonna see Tell me who you're gonna be Hey Joey You're gonna kiss the girls goodnight Sometimes you got to stand and fight It'll be alright We're gonna find a better life See Joe was 3 years younger to the day Acting like a little brother but became my ball and chain I met this girl named Rhonda, she fell for me She said, "I might learn to like him but love ain't built for three." Chorus: Hey Joey C'mon tell me 'bout your dreams Tell me all the sights you're gonna see Tell me who you're gonna be Hey Joey You're gonna kiss the girls goodnight Sometimes you got to stand and fight It'll be alright Hey Joey News gets around in this fading neighborhood The old man lost the restaurant He drinks more than he should It's time for Joey keys to do some good Pick the lock off our lives, let's get out of here like we always said we would Chorus: Hey Joey C'mon tell me 'bout your dreams Tell me all the sights you're gonna see Tell me who you're gonna be Hey Joey You're gonna kiss the girls goodnight Sometimes you got to stand and fight It'll be alright We're gonna find a better life Find a better life Find a better life 5. Misunderstood Should I? Could I? Have said the wrong things right a thousand times If I could just rewind, I see it in my mind If I could turn back time, you'd still be mine You cried, I died I should have shut my mouth, things headed south As the words slipped off my tongue, they sounded dumb If this old heart could talk, it'd say you're the one I'm wasting time when I think about it Chorus: I should have drove all night, I would have run all the lights I was misunderstood I stumbled like my words, Did the best I could Damn, misunderstood Could I? Should I? Apologize for sleeping on the couch that night Staying out too late with all my friends You found me passed out in the yard again You cried, I tried To stretch the truth, but didn't lie It's not so bad when you think about it Chorus: I should have drove all night, I would have run all the lights I was misunderstood I stumbled like my words, did the best I could Damn, misunderstood Intentions good Guitar Solo It's you and I, just think about it... Chorus: I should have drove all night I would have run all the lights I was misunderstood I stumbled like my words, did the best I could I 'm hanging outside your door I've been here before Misunderstood I stumbled like my words, did the best I could Damn, misunderstood Intentions good. 6. All About Loving You Looking at the pages of my life Faded memories of me and you Mistakes you know I've made a few I took some shots and fell from time to time Baby, you were there to pull me through We've been around the block a time or two I'm gonna lay it on the line Ask me how we've come this far The answer's written in my eyes Chorus: Every time I look at you, baby, I see something new That takes me higher than before and makes me want you more I don't wanna sleep tonight, dreamin's just a waste of time When I look at what my life's been comin' to I'm all about lovin' you I've lived, I've loved, I've lost, I've paid some dues, baby We've been to hell and back again Through it all you're always my best friend For all the words I didn't say and all the things I didn't do Tonight I'm gonna find a way Chorus: Every time I look at you, baby, I see something new That takes me higher than before and makes me want you more I don't wanna sleep tonight, dreamin's just a waste of time When I look at what my life's been comin' to I'm all about lovin' you You can take this world away You're everything I am Just read the lines upon my face I'm all about lovin' you Guitar Solo Chorus: Every time I look at you, baby, I see something new That takes me higher than before and makes me want you more I don't wanna sleep tonight, dreamin's just a waste of time When I look at what my life's been comin' to I'm all about lovin' you All about lovin' you 7.
