Bring Back The Dance

What would I do without
Would the street lights dim, would I embrace sin
A wolf free among the sheep, how can I sleep
Simple minded cross trained, I need to stop and notice
What have I done? Have I made a difference, have I built a bridge
With what can I free such pain, run the race without strain, for ever more
I...I...need such an embrace

What do you call it
What about love?

Would my candle give light, if the sun failed to give flight
Would I stop to care, so many left in fear, so many I can hear!
Many lost it all, with a simple emotion I could stop this all! Oh

What do you call it
What about love?
What do you call that
What about love?
What do you call everything
What about love?
Come on say it with me
What about love?

I may only have two arms, but a nation can embrace, whip tears from their face
But it starts with one, once one, now many more, stop the fight settle the score
Here comes a chance, don't let it fall between the cracks, bring back the dance

Would my candle give light, if the sun failed to give flight
Many lost it all, with a simple emotion I could stop this all!

I...I...need such an embrace!

What do you call it
What about love?
What do you call that
What about love?
What do you call everything
What about love?
Come on say it with me
What about love?

I...I...need such an embrace!
I...You, I, you, need oh,
What about love?
Such an embrace yeah
What about love?
Need everything
What about love?
To bring
What about love?
Love to everyone!

What do you call it
What about love?
What do you call that
What about love?
What do you call everything
What about love?
Come on say it with me
What about love?

Pristine One

So often frustrated
So often suffocated
So I guess I hide, love lost resides
For this I need advice, no matter the price
Gone, gone, a visionary masterpiece I called mine
Something tells me I'll never see again, pristine ora shine
Weight of distance ever further away buries me, and I
Fell from the one so high a top the mountain
Fell where do I go, where do I go
From here, from here!

Well I called you mine, pristine ora shine
My account of moon phases, can you read the signs
Same mind different faces, can't you read the signs
Well I called you mine, pristine ora shine
I called you mine, called you mine
So far away, about time I let go

About time I let go

So often defeated
So often resentful
Store it all, control is what makes me
Creates such madness within me
So I guess I hide, insanity resides
I tell you, I can't hear you anymore
Something in me understands, but can't comprehend
Trapped between you and me, and I
Fell from the one so high a top the mountain
Fell where do I go, where do I go
From here, from here!

Well I called you mine, pristine ora shine
My account of moon phases, can you read the signs
Same mind different faces, can't you read the signs
Well I called you mine, pristine ora shine
I called you mine, called you mine
So far away, about time I let go

About time I let go

Well I called you mine
So often I feel
You surround me
So often I feel
You so distant from me
So often, so often it hurts
Ora, ora, ora shine! Shine!
Time I let you go

Pristine ora shine
My account of moon phases, can you read the signs
Same mind different faces, can't you read the signs
Well I called you mine, pristine ora shine
I called you mine, called you mine
So far away, about time I let go

One Last Time

Your hands riddled with splinters, yet gentle hearted
But tomorrow brings on harder years
You've seen it all time and time before, the trees bare your burdens
Just after snowfall covered and they stand tall, but won't stand forever
Splinters bleed, burn in unforgiving chill, where will it end, no
You call, but on one to call friend

Won't you, won't you
Sacrifice one, last, time

Won't you, won't you
Ten thousand, ten thousand nails
Hear the sound, let it ring
One last time
Let it, let him sing, on and on
Just let it in, gotta let it in
Just let it in
Won't you, won't you just let in

Your foundation riddled with holes
Yet sought higher ground, won't admit defeat, you're too proud
Suddenly you surround the shattered pieces of spring bloom dreams and it hits
Who will remember you when your eyes go dark
Like a beacon no longer in the night sky
How many years have been lost, your heart can not pay the cost no

Won't you, won't you
Sacrifice one, last, time

Won't you, won't you
Ten thousand, ten thousand nails
Hear the sound, let it ring
One last time
Let it, let him sing, on and on
Just let it in, gotta let it in
Just let it in
Won't you, won't you just let in

Ten thousand nails struck, but fell silent
Tears stain your clothes, and have nowhere to go
Ten thousand, ten thousand nails, when will you hear the sounds
Creator of kings, hear him, hear him sing
Surround, surround you now
Let it ring oh, let it ring

Won't you, won't you
Ten thousand, ten thousand nails
Hear the sound, let it ring
One last time
Let it, let him sing, on and on
Just let it in, gotta let it in
Just let it in, gotta let it in
Just let it in...
