Frozen heart, broken smile
Those days that don’t seem worthwhile
Don’t say that you’re giving up
Sometimes it's gonna be tough
Follow your heart be true to your mind
Leave all your troubles behind
Have a look deep down inside
See what you can find
Out of thought, out of time
Right down to your last dime
Don’t say that your gonna quit
You can get there bit by bit
Follow your heart be true to your mind
Leave all your troubles behind
Have a look deep down inside
See what you can find
No-one can set you free that’s for you to do ya see
All the stars align it's for you they shine
It’s for you they shine
Follow your heart be true to your mind
Leave all your troubles behind
Have a look deep down inside
Have a look and see what you find
What you find
See what you can find

It's All Happening Now

It's not been alone that I fear
It’s missing you my sweet dear
Time has knocked us again
It’ll never keep us apart
So now I'm trading in these shoes
For a brand new attitude
I hope they’ve got my size
And they fit just right
Don’t waste your time on the past
Yes it makes you but it won't last
It’s all happening now
It’s good when we disagree
It gives a sense to be free
The differences in our views
Makes us stick like glue
May good luck darken your door
That along with so much more
All the answers are deep inside
We just got to go and find
Don’t look for solution in times to come
Forthcoming expectations will often let you down
It’s all happening now
It’s all happening now
It’s all happening now
It’s all happening now

A Country Job

What's wrong mister you seem a bit uptight not always can things go just right
A bad start can be hard to shake sometimes even hard to take
It's not like you didn’t try your best it's not like you wouldn’t pass no test
When the hammer falls and the day is done you can go home knowing the sun has shown
It's not bad for a country job
Serve your time serve that apprentice the tricks of the trade are in the experience
Listen up close put, down that pen perhaps someday you’ll be training some men
The weekly wage just isn't enough the bills at home are pretty tough
Up and up, you raise them up I'm not sure that they’ll ever drop
It's not bad for a country job
It's not bad for a country job
It's not bad………………….. People in this country vote but don't get no say
This country's direction its living days
So minister for finance how do you sleep next to all that power and greed?
Giving to the rich what you're taking from the poor all that money your keeping for sure
And minister are you getting your five a day?
Your blood's flowing but you're turned the other way
Election year you conquered the race but your mam never thought you no family grace

Try Your Best

That cats off again out into the night
One thing is for sure he got trouble on his mind
And you can bet your last dollar he’ll return before light
Never leaves nothing no, not a trace behind
It’s high up it's low down
Got to have those feet fixed on the ground
Head to the east head far out west
Don’t really matter as long as you try your best
No rest for the wicked with its price to pay
What was your mother feeding you those first few days?
Stand up and be counted or move along your way
There's no one to blame now and you got nothing to say
It’s high up it's low down
Got to have those feet fixed on the ground
Head to the east head far out west
Don’t really matter as long as you try your best
Now the cats got your tongue
Your pride went astray
Your money's no good here
I hear Darwin is a great hideaway!?

The Way The Wind Blows

Don was a tailor man who never stopped till he met his plan
Now he spends his days alone with Gloria
Never had he kissed anyone but she, she had it all in one
She keeps him on his toes with every note
Good fortune came his way though not knowing it then the price he paid
Paved the way for things to come
That’s the way the wind blows
It never stops don’t you know
Ritchie he couldn’t settle down better known as townland clown
He’d spread his wings like a big old eagle
The type that would just swope in the type that always had to win
A chance missed was like losing a war
The day she said she was three months gone he said I'm sorry love I'm moving along
It's one of those things he’s always regret
That’s the way the wind blows
It never stops don’t you know
That old junkie, he robbed him
He robbed him and left him alone
Alone on his own far from home
Looking for the nearest way out
That’s the way the wind blows
It never stops don’t you know
