Marry me to the blue sky
Bury me in that long last drop of hard rain
Meet me where they stop time
That’s you to me on the shovel
That’s digging deep grave
Till I can waltz on the moonbeam
Till I can find a way to turn all tears into wine
I’ll hitch my ride to a daydream
We can’t unkiss the lips that love is leaving behind
I ain’t living with the ghost
No future living in the past
I’ve seen what hate has done to hope
Tomorrow wasn’t built to last
I ain’t living with the ghost
How can I scream I’m scared to breathe?
I wrote each word you gave the toast
But we were fire and gasoline
I ain’t living with the ghost
I set my sails over wheat fields
Rode waves of amber let a new sunshine on my face
I dropped the sword, put down my shield
I left your scars for the stars that are guiding my way
I traded hurting for healing, I must admit that I was reeling
Now I’m feeling just fine
Traded nightmares for dreaming
Go tell your shadows that I got out alive!
I ain’t living with the ghost
No future living in the past
I’ve seen what hurt has done to hope
I found the tree, I cut the rope
Tomorrow wasn’t built to last
I ain’t living with the ghost
How can I scream I’m scared to breathe?
I wrote each word you gave the toast
But we were fire and gasoline
I ain’t living with the ghost
Last night I had this dream
I saw a man wash his feet in the church holy water
Then he worked up to his knees
From his arms to his neck
Said I’m in over my head
He was crying, trying to get some relief
Lord, I’m just trying to get some relief
I had this dream
That man was me
I ain’t living with the ghost
No future living in the past
I’ve seen what hurt has done to hope
I found the tree, I cut the rope
Tomorrow wasn’t built to last
I ain’t living with the ghost
How can I scream I’m scared to breathe?
I wrote each word you gave the toast
But we were fire and gasoline
I ain’t living with the ghost
This isn’t how the story ends
My friends it’s just a fork along the road
Don’t say your prayers, save your amens
You’ve come this far, but you’re still far from home
Don’t say goodbye, just say farewell
Write every line you’ll live to tell
Hold your head high, like harry
Give ‘em hell
As the night ignites the day
Make some memories along the way, ay
Write your song
Sing along
Love your life
Learn to laugh
Dare to dance
Touch the sky
Take pictures each step of the way
Make this the best of you the rest of your days
Start your revolution
And I’ll see you at the reunion
Some friends will go and some will stay
Ok, some last a chapter, some a page
For some, love some disguised as lust
But you’ll find love when you find trust one day
Do better than our parent did
Imperfect husband, wife and kids
Go chart your course, then turn it upside down
Go live your life eyes open wide
Who’s to say what’s wrong or right? Right?
Write your song
Sing along
Love your life
Learn to laugh
Dare to dance
Touch the sky
Take pictures each step of the way
Make this the best of you the rest of your days
Start your revolution
And I’ll see you at the reunion
As the night ignites the day
Make some memories along the way!
Write your song
Sing along
Love your life
Learn to laugh
Dare to dance
Touch the sky
Take pictures each step of the way
Make this the best of you the rest of your days
Start your revolution
And I’ll see you at the reunion
I say go start your own revolution
