Will you go up with me to the top of the mountain
Will you go up with me to the top of the mountain
In the golden hour
Will you go up with me to the top of the mountain
Will you go up with me to the top of the mountain
In the golden hour
In the golden hour
I don't want to come down
I don't want to come down
I don't want to come down
I don't want to come down
Will you come run with me and stay till the morning?
Will you come run with me and stay till the morning
Till the golden hour
Till the golden hour
Nothing to hide. A Thorn in my side. Both of our worlds collide.
Our Future provides. My Patience abides. Wings to the wind and fly
And I don't want to come down
I don't want to come down
I don't want to come down
I don't want to come down
Will you go up with me to the top of the mountain
Will you go up with me to the top of the mountain
In the golden hour
In the golden hour

Higher Ground (Remix)

The Thunder rolled without a warning
Let it rain I don't mind
When the southern skies are storming
And the sun breaks through from behind
When the night falls on the mountain
And the moon’s on the rise
Under all those stars you’re counting
I see their light shining in your eyes
And you keep on lifting my spirits up
til’ I’m on that higher ground.
And I keep my faith that the world is going to turn around.
The world is going to turn around.
The world is going to turn around.

Middle of the Mountain

In the middle of a mountain
Deep down in the dark
There’s a little light shining
Deep in my heart.
I don’t know how it got there - who gave it the spark?
Was it Love from the Monster or the Matriarch.
And I turned into a fire and I burned
For love
Down by the river
Way down in the deep
Mouth of the river
What words you speak
There’s a little light shining for those who seek
Shine forever and yours to keep
And I turned into a fire and I burned
For love
For love
Down by the water
The river runs wild
Lord knows how hard you tried
Blood of the monster in the cup for the bride
Tears of the father are kept inside
And I turned into a fire and I burned
Into the fire and I burned
Into a fire and I burned
Into the fire and i burned
In the middle of a mountain
Deep down in the dark
Theres a little light shining
Deep in my heart.

Mississippi

I’m goin down to the Mississippi water down to give my luck a draw
I’m goin down in the Mississippi summer in the heat now runnin from the law
I’m going down in a 64' Plymouth
Doin' 90 miles an hour through the city limits
I’ve come here to get a good look at you
You're such a sight for sore eyes
Yeah, the River runs deep, we’ll take it to the edge tonight.
Oh lord, the river don't sleep.
This feeling can't wait.
Let's take it til' the morning light.
Until the morning light.
I woke up feeling temptation from a love there ain't no denying
I woke up listen to the spirits and I started reading the signs.
Opened my eyes once I had bitten - the feeling arrived as if it was written.
I have a feeling that everything's coming around in its own time.
...there's a price to pay for your love so blind.
Where do you go when the the sun starts sinking low
With a fire to light and the night coming on so cold
Where do you go when the river runs high
It's pouring rain and there's nowhere to hide
Don't you know? Won’t you tell me where

Most I Can Give
04:33

I don't want to be a fool anymore
I'll bring all my faults to your door
Can't we spend all our time
Entwined in love's sweet incline
We do
Unknown as the deep ocean blue
The plan that is kept for me and you
But surely we have some say
In what we make of our days
We do
I love you
For each hill and slope that will arise
Take my hand we will walk stride in stride
And I hope my love will suffice
It's the most I can give of my life
To you
I love you
I love you
I hope my love will suffice
It's the most I can give of my life, it's the most I can give to you
I hope my love will suffice
It's the most I can give of my life, it's the most I can give to you
I love you

They say you better count your blessings
Well aint it like me to always learn my lessons
The hard way, give an inch and take a yard way
If it's worth having then we'll have it our way
Baby don't let me fall to my old habits.
Even when I'm tempted to reach out and grab it.
Testify testify when you gotta have it you gotta have it
Let's get away from this place come Sunday mornin
With our hangovers and our dirty clothes,
Hollywood I love you like an overdose
The weight is liftin off my shoulders
They say to get goin before you get older
I don't know what I've been told -
You lay your cards on the table or you fold
I put a lot of miles on it hard and fast
A little banged up but built to last .
Testify testify what's in the past is in the past
Let's get away from this place come Sunday morning
On the great highway got fuel to burn
Drive it to the point of no return
Let's get away from this place come Sunday mornin
Just a one way ticket for our peace of mind
All good things in all good time
Without you I'd be better off dead
But you don't like how I butter my bread
I shine my light and never hide away
For one fine mornin I'll up and fly away
Till then it's in God we trust
And it's Blood, and sweat, and tears and rust
Testify testify ashes to ashes and dust to dust
Let's get away from this place come Sunday morning
Running on fumes rollin down the road
Honey won’t you come on in from the cold
Honey won’t you come on in from the cold
Honey won’t you come on in from the cold

Feel the beat of the midnight drum pounding a rhythm you know.
Dance for love and dance for the spirit that's living there beneath your bones.
You only live once but it feels like it's been forever since we've just listened to the rhythm
Listen to the rhythm and let it take me to the place that I call home
Lift me high.
Swing me low.
Sweet music,
Got to let it shine down deep in my soul
Lift me high.
Swing me low.
Where do you go when you need that music,
Well it's knocking, hear me knock on your door
Songs of the river.
Songs of the mountain.
Songs of the people I know.
And I beat that drum and play til my fingers bleed on my arpeggios
I said bleed on my arpeggios
So play that beat on the midnight drum
Play it from the seed of your soul
We can shine a light in the dark for each other
Won't you satisfy my soul?
Go ahead! Satisfy my very soul!
Lift me high.
Swing me low.
Sweet music, got to let it shine down deep in my soul
Lift me high.
Swing me low.
We can shine a light in the dark for each other
Won’t you satisfy my soul,
Go ahead satisfy my very soul

Cotton threads and rusty needles sew the patches to my jeans.
And they tend to always fall apart, unravel at the seams.
I got holes in my pockets big enough to spill my dreams.
I'm a grateful one for all I’ve had and all I've ever seen.
Don't you worry now.
It’s gonna be alright.
It's always darkest out before the morning light
Yes we like the food that's on our table fresh and simply grown
And we like a little privacy wherever we call home.
I'm letting go of everything but love and Lord knows that I'm trying.
Even though I'm chasing happiness sometimes it's bitter tears I'm crying.
Don't you worry now.
It’s gonna be alright.
It's always darkest out before the morning light
Don't you worry now.
It’s gonna be alright.
It's always darkest out before the morning light

I followed you like a child into a dream
I can't recall
You stood at the edge, waved as we drove away
And that's the last of you I ever saw
Look away, look away, just behind the curtain
There's a light behind the curtain that forever shines
Look away, look away, nothing’s ever certain
But I will follow you when it's my time
You were called back home one September morning
One too many mornings hanging on by a thread
Got the call from your brother by the sound of his voice
I didn't even need to hear the words he said
Look away, look away, just behind the curtain
There's a light behind the curtain that forever shines
Look away, look away, nothing’s ever certain
But I will follow you when it's my time
It’s the love that lives forever
I feel when I remember feel when I remember
It’s the love that lives forever
I feel when I remember feel when I remember you
Look away, look away, just behind the curtain
There's a light behind the curtain that forever shines
Look away, look away, nothing’s ever certain
But I will follow you when it's my time
Look away, look away, just behind the curtain
There's a light behind the curtain that forever shines
Look away, look away, nothing’s ever certain
But I will follow you when it's my time
I will follow you

Heart of Mine

I’ll be there for you my brother
If the flood comes six feet high
I’ll be there for you my sister
If the well begins to run dry
If the well begins to run dry
I don’t ask much of many
I do for mine and that’s no lie
All I ask and ask a plenty
Is for the will to wanna try
Is for the will to wanna try
On the vine in the summer
What becomes tomorrow’s wine
To fill the cup of another
With what’s kept in this heart of mine
With what is kept in this heart of mine
With what is kept in this heart of mine

Got to keep on growing
Keep on growing
And keep my spirits high
There will come a moment
Come a moment
As clear as the Carolina sky
There's a sweet salvation
Sweet salvation
Every time I look into your eyes
Got to keep on pushin
Keep on pushin
And keep my eyes on the prize
And I pray for the moment that the rain comes
Water come down and gonna wash this city
Lord let it fall and wake the seed to grow
Dance with my lover and the rain comes.... down
Well the Lord giveth, Lord giveth
And the Lord taketh away
Got to keep on growing,
Keep on growing
Until my dying day
Until my dying day
I've been planting them seeds,
I’m gonna watch them grow
Well my love is a fire down in my soul
Comin up from the roots growing down in the ground
And I pray for the moment that the rain comes
Water come down and gonna wash this city
Lord let it fall and wake the seed to grow
Dance with my lover and the rain comes.... down.
And the rain comes down
And the rain comes down
And the rain comes down

Down by the river
An old gravel road
My Carolina
Sweetest I've known
Before I take my rest
I ask you one favor
Please take me back
To a place I call home
I can remember
The colors of evening
Sweet southern summers
Time passing slow
Down by the river
I heard your voice calling
Calling to me
To bring me back home
I think that we're learning to fly
Oh my love, don't you worry
In the end, we'll be alright
This ain't goodbye.
I can remember
The colors of evening
Sweet southern summers
Time passing slow
Down by the river
I heard your voice calling
Calling to me
To sing me back home
I think that we're learning to fly
Oh my love, don't you worry
In the end, we'll be alright
This ain't goodbye.

I'll Be On Your Side
03:14

Oh, the times I’ve tried
Outliving the times I’ve died, just a little bit inside
Sacrifice has become a way of life
With no end in sight
Love is a lifeline that I need, yes I do
I’m giving you all that I have to give, believe me
One more day and every day that’ll ever be
I’ll be on your side
From less than zero
Lift it up and touch the sky
Always searching and reaching for a little light
Shining deep inside
We’re all growing towards it just the same
Wearing darkness to hide the shame now
Well your heart’s like a seed it only grows to the light
Love’s gonna make everything alright
Love’s gonna make it alright, everything will be alright
Got to let it shine, got to let it shine
Sometimes it lifts you up into the light
I’ll be on your side
One day everything will return to dust again out here among the stars
And when all is said and done there will only be what always was and will ever be
Love is a life line that we can hold through space and time
We’re all coming back around again just to keep on shining
