You lyrics - Collective Soul


Time, I always need more time
To figure what I've lost, to learn what I should find
Soon, I'm always hoping soon
I'll figure what to add, I'll learn what to remove

New sunrise, new sunsets
New stories I haven't lived through yet

With you, it's always been you
There's never been good days
There's never been bad days without you

Choose, I'm always made to choose
I'll figure what to share, I'll learn from what I've used

New sunrise, new sunsets
New promises I haven't made quite yet

To you, it's always been you
There's never been good days
There's never been bad days without you

Yeah, there's never been a day without you
Yeah, there's never been a day
There's never been a night without you

You, it's always been you
There's never been good days
There's never been bad days without you

It's always been you
There's never those good days
There's never those bad days without you

My Days lyrics - Collective Soul

Got your sticks, got your stones
Got your ways, your means, your wants
Your needs, yeah, you is all you know

Who can learn what's wrong?
Who can learn what's right by your ways?
See, I can say I've loved
I can say I've tried in my days

Got your wish, got your dreams
Got your thoughts, your cause
Beware because nothing's as it seems

Who can learn what's wrong?
Who can learn what's right by your ways?
See, I can say I've loved
I can say I've tried in my days

Who can learn what's wrong?
Who can learn what's right by your ways?
See, I can say I've loved
I can say I've tried in my days

Try some conversation
Grab new information
Change is an indication
You can grow, you will grow

Who can learn what's wrong?
Who can learn what's right by your ways?
See, I can say I've loved
Yeah, I can say I've tried in my days

Who can learn what's wrong?
Who can learn what's right by your ways?
See, I can say I've loved
I can say I've tried, tried in my days

Yeah, have you learned? Yeah, have you learned?
Yeah, have you learned by your ways?
See, I have learned, yeah, I have learned
Yeah, I have learned in my days

Understanding lyrics - Collective Soul

With better competition
Got a savior, says he's gonna save who
Come together people
Tell me what new habit can we choose?

We're thinking and we're trying
Yeah, we're truthful then we're lying, I'm sure you know
We're quiet then we're loud
Yeah, we're hopeful then we doubt, I'm sure it shows

Do we get a second chance to these answers that we lack?
Or are we guided by the hope of some brilliant flash?
Tell me, tell me how long will this sobriety last?

Who's understanding? Yeah, understanding
To the ways, the means of our own self
We got the sex, the dreams with nothing else

Who's understanding? Yeah, understanding
To the right, the wrong of our own self
We got the look, the pose with nothing else

Dancing to the rhythm
From the knowledge of a hard drive spin
Looking for the formula
That always will save us in the end

We're creeping and we're crawling
Yeah, we're pushing, then we're stalling, have you felt?
We're open, then we're closing
Yeah, we're hiding, then we're showing, can you tell?

Do we get a second chance to these answers that we lack?
Or are we guided by the hope of some brilliant flash?
Tell me, tell me how long will this sobriety last?

Who's understanding? Yeah, understanding
To the ways the means of our own self
We got the sex, the dreams with nothing else

Who's understanding? Yeah, understanding
To the right, the wrong of our own self
We got the look, the pose with nothing else

Do we understand?
Do we understand all the words we've said?

Staring Down lyrics - Collective Soul

Loosened from my pride
Oh, that monster, he kept me so tight
I threw my aces down
Just to face the here and the now

So here I go again, I want to please
Yeah, here I go again, sweet I sleep
Sweeter I dream

I've been looking, I've been staring down
I've been searching, I've been staring down
And your love is what I found

As cautious as a thief
Oh, but restless with all of my needs
Now I stand before all I want
And all that I adore

So here I go again, I need to please
Yeah, here I go again, sweet you sleep
Sweeter I dream

I've been looking, I've been staring down
I've been searching, I've been staring down
And your love is what I

Long days, long nights
Just blinded by what was already in sight
Now I've found, I've found my way home
Yeah, I found my way home

I've been looking, I've been staring down
I've been searching, I've been staring down

I've been looking, I've been staring down
I've been searching, I've been staring down
And your love is what I found

She Does lyrics - Collective Soul

Every single word, every single sign
Every single moment captures her
Her motions well defined, her motions well defined
Yeah, she's well defined

Who could light the sky
With no sun, no moon, no stars above?
Who could give me cause
To speak, to wish or believe in love?
I'll tell you, my baby, she does

Way beyond my heart, way beyond the mind
Way beyond the measures one could ask for
For her love tonight and for her love tonight
For her love tonight

Who could light the sky
With no sun, no moon, no stars above?
Who could give me cause
To speak, to wish or believe in love?

Who could light the sky
With no sun, no moon, no stars above?
Who could give me cause
To speak, to wish or believe in love?
I'll tell you, my baby, she does

She does it for the fun, yeah, she does it purposely
She does it for the one, yeah, she does it just for me
Yeah, she does, hey, hey

Who could light the sky
With no sun, no moon, no stars above?
Who could give me cause
To speak, to wish or believe in love?

Who could light the sky
With no sun, no moon, no stars above?
Who could give me cause
To speak, to wish or believe in love?
I'll tell you, my baby, she does

Yeah, yeah, my baby, she does
Yeah, yeah, my baby, she does
Yeah, yeah, my baby, she does

Lighten Up lyrics - Collective Soul

Oh, you think it but you can't believe
So you say it's like that
Yeah, you see it but you can't be seen
Now is it like that?

So, hey, hey, hey, yeah, where you coming from?
Hey, hey, hey, we are all an equal some
Hey, hey, hey, you got the attitude
That everything's important 'cause the news is always new to you

You're not underground
You're just silly now
Oh, my foolish pup lighten up
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, lighten up

Hey, you want it but you can't receive
So you say it's like that
Hey, you know it but you can't agree
Now is it like that?

So, hey, hey, hey, yeah, where you coming from?
Hey, hey, hey, we are all an equal some
Hey, hey, hey, you got the attitude
That everything's important 'cause the news is always new to you

You're not underground
You're just silly now
Oh, my foolish pup lighten up
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, lighten up

You're not underground
You're just silly now
Oh, my foolish pup lighten up
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, lighten up

Be careful with the tongue
Then softer with the words you choose
Take your time, take your time
Take your time to find your own groove

Hey, hey, when information comes around
Hey, hey, well, let a message be found
Hey, hey, has your conviction sold out?
Hey, hey, has your conviction sold out?

You're not underground
You're just silly now
Oh, my foolish pup lighten up
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, lighten up

You're not underground
You're just silly now
Oh, my foolish pup lighten up
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, lighten up

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, lighten up
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, lighten up
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, lighten up

Love lyrics - Collective Soul

Marching through the corridor
Through faces I don't know
Got sunshine on the inside
But nowhere to glow

And counting down the hours
Pretending that it's time
Searching for the patience
A treasure I can't find

Days try to convince
Faith can cure all loneliness
Wishes wish for more
Wishes that could lead me towards

Love, love is where I now lie
Yeah, love is looking into your eyes

Looking out my window
Soaring through the blue
Something's always nothing
'Til I'm touching you

Nights are always spent
Hiding in life's compliments
And thoughts just thinking more
Thoughts on how I'm yearning for

Love, love is where I now lie
Yeah, love is looking into your eyes

Love, love is where I now lie
Yeah, love is looking into your eyes
Love, love is where I now lie
Yeah, love is looking into your eyes

I've got to get back, I've got to get back
I've got to, got to get back home
I've got to get back, I've got to get back
I've got to, got to get back home

Hymn For My Father lyrics - Collective Soul

I will follow, I will follow
Till the stars fall down, till the sun burns out
I will follow, I will follow
Till Gabriel's horn does sound

I will follow, I will follow
Through the path You chose with the words You spoke
I will follow, I will follow
By the love You always showed

I won't cry out 'cause love has lifted me
I won't cry out 'cause now I will receive
Everything that You've given me
All things to me

I will follow, I will follow
For in You I do believe

I will follow, I will follow
Through the path You chose with the words You spoke
I will follow, I will follow
By the love, the love You showed

Heart To Heart lyrics - Collective Soul

1/2 step down
(1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4)

We'll talk about the sky and how it shines
We'll talk about the seas and the Ocean's tide
We'll talk about pain we all receive
We'll talk about hope and how you'll believe, you'll learn to believe...

[Chorus:]
Ohh Ohh, here I go
Ohh Ohh, this is all I know
Ohh Ohh, it's time to start
Ohh Ohh, a heart to heart

We'll talk about sights you will see
We'll talk about songs you'll learn to sing
We'll talk about Mom, we'll talk about me
We'll talk about love and what it means, cause love's all you'll need...

[Chorus]

And I'm only hear to teach
Yeah I'm only hear to learn
Cause sooner than you'll think
Boy it'll be your turn
So no excuses, no complaints, no restrictions, no restraints for...

You [4x] [Chorus]

[Chorus 2x]

Heart to heart [4x]

"Afterwords" (2007)

New Vibration lyrics - Collective Soul

I've got the sun and its seasons
Giving days only wanting to please
But I hear rhyme with
no reason
Spilling words that mean nothing to me

I'm not wanting more
Promises and
beliefs
I'm just waiting for
Someone to hear this heartbeat

I've got a soul and devotion

Giving love and a valentine
But I see life in its motion
Grinding out on every subject it
finds

[chorus]

I'm not running
I'm not chasing
I'm just looking for that old sensation

I'm not cooling
I'm not craving
I'm just living for some new vibrations

[chorus]

I'm not running
I'm not chasing
I'm just looking for that old sensation
I'm not coolilng

I'm not craving
I'm just living for some new vibrations

What I Can Give You lyrics - Collective Soul

Imagine again
I lean a little closer just to breathe you in
Words are in bloom
They wake me with their meaning and their
Thoughts of you

I can't give you
Treasures that only men have made
But what I can give you
No one can ever take away

Twisting the day
I always lose myself so I can find your way
Promises be
They whisper all the yearning
That I swear you'll need

[chorus]

I've got a long way
a long way to come down

[chorus]

Never Here Alone lyrics - Collective Soul

Had a thought but it hurt
So I let it go
I let it go
See I don't need these verses

Laying down their blues on me today

I'm never here alone
I thought I heard some angel say

You'll never be alone
I know I heard my father sing
I'm never here alone
I'm never here alone

Have a scar, yeah a scar
So I let it show
I let it show show
See I don't need tomorrow
Fearing from the pain of yesterday

[chorus]

I'm starting back where love begins

Gonna get me those blue skies
Those blue skies again

[chorus]

Bearing Witness lyrics - Collective Soul

Another day newspapers say
Life what'd you do to me
I'm always here, you're always there

Hope that's my company

Yeah stars have only so many wishes though
They can't tell what we already know
See I'm just gathering all my eyes can see through
I'm bearing witness to you

I'm bearing witness to you

Familiar words the evening stirs
Life what'd you say to me

I'm promised here, you're precious there
Love you're my destiny

[chorus]

Somedays I surrender
Somedays I resolve
But everyday I'd conquer
With your love
With you love

[chorus]

All That I Know lyrics - Collective Soul

In these lazy days
I barely see myself through
I lay here comfortable
My thoughts wrapped around you
I've got a lot on my mind
It's always you every time

You're all that I know
When the sun goes down
You're all that I know
When the sun comes
Rising like the devil in me
And when tomorrow wakes
It's sure to show
You're all that I know

These quiet nights
They nurture me to a bore
The only strength I find
Is when I'm wanting you more
I've had a lot on my mind
It still was you every time

[chorus]
