Roll the Dice Throwing out all the darkness inside All those broken bounds left behind Roll the dice Let’s find out what’s my luck Roll the dice Let’s see if my fortune is back Driving out the all shadows inside A move to send them all away beyond the clouds The dice, roll the dice Let’s find out what’s my luck The dice, roll the dice Let’s see if my fortune is back Casting out all the demons inside Words like holy water from my mouth The dice, roll the dice Let’s find out what’s my luck The dice, roll the dice Let’s see if my fortune’s back

Lonely Riders Lost the trace Even though I had read all the signs No clue of my guiding star I got lost And I wished there’d been a turning back But I was halfway nowhere and beyond Then I found you Running from the coming storm Looking for a place to hide And you said you were tired Of learning by crying Could see our hearts were broken, so broken Lonely riders We both spent a long time coming down this bitter road When we were once Lonely riders But nothing’s going to hurt you now If we ride to the other side No one’s going to hurt you No one’s going to hurt you by my side So no more lonely rides We can never know where it’ll be coming from When or how or even why Let’s just keep on riding to the other side And there we’ll have our answer, our big answer Lonely riders We both spent a long time Coming down this bitter road When we were once Lonely riders But nothing’s going to hurt you now If we ride to the other side No one’s going to hurt you No one’s going to hurt you by my side So no more lonely rides

Childlike Wonder It’s magic You walk around oozing innocence And you look at me with those eyes The purest eyes A great trick To get in trouble and pretend to make Your way out with a smile The biggest smile It’s lovely Watching you play a super hero Saving your friends with your powers Your super powers Your aura Glitters like a piece of heaven You come near and there’s light The sweetest light Time goes by and we’re all getting older Years flow and we’re not kids any longer I wish we didn’t lose the spirit Of childlike wonder And we all kept the child in our hearts It’s funny How you question with that impertinence So many doubts in your mind The brightest mind Cause I know there’s a child Deep in our hearts I know what he sounds like When he shouts out Time goes by and we’re all getting older Years flow and we’re not kids any longer I wish we didn’t lose the spirit Of childlike wonder And we all kept the child in our hearts

Our Little Kingdom A perfect time to share intense colours When it seems all hope is lost Let us show you where they shine Just come with us Where we go is not far Where we go we have fun Where we go it’s our little kingdom Of love Flowers bloom When they’re ready for something new We are calling you to bring The purest light in you We are calling you to come Just as you are Where we go we run and hide Where we go no one can find us Where we go it’s our little kingdom Of love Happy times are sacred They won’t fade away Sweet little treasures we’ve all got inside ourselves Let us light up our path In green, blue and red If you bring your spark we’ll show you the way Where we go we sing and dance Where we go until the sunlight Where we go, our little kingdom of love

Reasons 05:14
Reasons Here’s the morning and its sunlight A few reasons, a few reasons to try To hold on while the day starts With a few reasons, a few reasons this time All this time I’ve been waiting for something to happen Becoming so dark inside Wondering why I’ve got no reasons, got no reasons to go on Here’s tomorrow with my new life And lots of reasons, lots of reasons to start off The unknown has abruptly come With lots of reasons, lots of reasons to stop Grinding my teeth down Not to shout out oh God why I don’t shine with my own light Like this sun And I’ve got no reasons, got no reasons But your love held these broken parts together Sealed the cracks and gave me a new heart It came tearing down old concrete layers Washed my wounds and made me a new man

The Master Plan The leaves are now falling And the laughter’s gone Try not to be thrown into confusion Longing for the past If autumn plays its part I guess it all comes down to If you’ve got and you stick to your plan The shadows are longer And we all miss the sun But running in circles won’t be The way out of your darkest night If winter lets you down I guess it all comes down to If you’ve got and you stick to Your plan, this life is your master plan You’ll be born and you’ll die You’ll weep and you’ll laugh Under the sky And time, you know time will never look back You’ll mourn and you’ll dance You’ll hate and you’ll love Well it’s your master plan A breathe of fresh air And the magic is done You’re climbing the mountain But you know that you aim for the stars The spring will bring new light I guess it all comes down to If you’ve got and you stick to Your plan, this life is your master plan You’ll be born and you’ll die You’ll weep and you’ll laugh Under the sky And time, you know time will never look back You’ll mourn and you’ll dance You’ll hate and you’ll love Well it’s your master plan You see the horizon And the beach from afar Slowly but surely Cause you know getting there is half the fun The summer’s not that far I guess it all comes down to If you’ve got and you stick to your plan

Live Tonight 04:50
Live Tonight Oh tonight Feeling well tonight It’s been a long ride But I’m all right Home again Feeling safe is swell Well I’ve wished for this Lots of times Tonight my north & south sing together Cause mind & heart become one Live tonight The past has passed And setbacks left some scars But I still have hope By my side All those days Shedding tears and sweat Were not in vain They were learning times Tonight my heads & tails sing together Cause body & soul become one Live tonight This life is allright Quite a trip so far And my dreams are here So alive And here on stage Fighting tooth and nail This voice and six strings It’s all I’ve got Tonight my lost & found sing together Cause mind & spirit become one Live tonight

Act Of Faith 03:33
Act Of Faith Endless roads Mysterious calls Destination out there Struggling to hear A message from those who have fought Who’ve made their stand Will they tell me how far? Will they know Where I’m heading to right now? An act of faith A miracle blast Eternal fears chasing me Wishing to face My golden age Right after those turns My own promised land Will they tell me how far? Will they know Where I’m heading to right now? The time has come So what’s it going to be? The time has come Time will escape Like water escapes from our hands So drink while you can I want to believe There’s nowhere to go but straight ahead When you’re feeling this bliss Will they tell me how far? Will they know Where I’m heading to right now?

The Week Is Gone (Getaway Plan) The week is gone The week is gone It’s five o’clock And you’re walking out the door The week is gone The job is done And you sing your song On the way back home ‘Cause it’s time to think about a getaway plan Meet up with friends at the park It’s time to think about being yourself Laughing in the sun The week is gone The week is gone And you leave your box Merging into the flow The week is gone What’s done is done And you whistle your tune On the bus back home ‘Cause it’s time to think about a getaway plan A drink with friends at the bar It’s time to think about being yourself Laughing all night long Tonight will not last forever So get your life back on track ‘Cause out there the stars will take you To meet someone you might know The real you ‘Cause it’s time to think about a getaway plan Meet up with friends at the park It’s time to think about being yourself Laughing all night long It’s time to think about a getaway plan A drink with friends at the bar Why not getting dressed up and joining your friends They’re coming to the show

Beyond The Extra Mile Modern-day buccaneer Sails away right now Leaving this world behind Daydreaming desperately About those things not yet done And others to be found? Some silly fantasies Have struck this worried mind Leaving it wounded bad Old stories ‘bout pipe dreams They say don’t dwell in doubt You better trust your gut I’m going away I’m going for the long haul Believe it or not I’ll run for a while ‘till it’s done And the treasure is at hand Where I’ll see beyond the extra mile Me and my dreams will be fine As long as we move forward ‘cause we’ll go beyond the extra mile Beyond the extra mile Illusion came to me And it was like a wake up call Pushing me to move on Old stories ‘bout pipe dreams Keep saying don’t dwell in doubt Just trust your gut Well I’m going away I’m going for the long haul Believe it or not I’ll run for a while ‘till it’s done And the treasure is at hand Where I’ll see beyond the extra mile I’ll sleep away with these dreams Feeding my soul ‘cause we’ll go beyond the extra mile Beyond the extra mile
