brandon heath - red sky

There's a man on my street
He reminds me everyday
Better take what you can get
Cause there's nothing more than this
Daylight fades into the ground,
Oh Lord i need you now

CHORUS
Cover me with the red sky tonight
The promise of a better day to come
Sing over me an angelic symphony
Tell me everything will be alright
With the red sky tonight

We're so taking with our fear
Now we're folded up in shame
*With our feet nailed* to the floor
We're the only ones to blame
I can't help but wonder why
Nobody bats an eye
You can see it in the faces
Of all *the passers by*

So, cover me with the red sky tonight
The promise of a better day to come
Sing over me an angelic symphony
Tell me everything will be alright

I sail into the sun
When the day is done
I need you in the night
So wake me in the dark
I see you in the sun
When the day is done

Cover me with the red sky tonight
I promise a better day will come
Sing over me an angelic symphony
Tell me everything will be alright
Tell me everything will be alright
Tell me everything will be alright

It's the red sky
It's the red sky
Tonight

brandon heath - beauty divine

Does it ever catch your eye
Beauty divine
In an old man's tears
A little girl's smile
If it feels like a song
One that belongs to you
Stop making sense
Your weakest defense
Just quiet your mind
Let the world unwind
See we're not alone
He makes Himself known
in time, His own time

chorus
So Breath
Life will surprise you
Just Be
It's what the world denies you
You see
The truth is all around you
Believe

We're not alone
He makes Himself known
in time, His own time

Does it ever catch your eye

brandon heath - butterfly

Seven days is all it took, this time
Look at me; do I seem the least bit surprised
I taught you how to spread your wings
I taught you how to drive
Didin't think you'd get so many miles

And I see
Life with my butterfly and me

Look me in the eye, just one time
Humor me, humor me once in a while
Always looking behind me, for a more important time
Someone you can sling your resume to

And I see
Life with my butterfly and me

This is, this is not about you and me
That ship boat, this ship is lost at sea
Just a morbid curiosity
About my butterfly and me

Seven days is all it took, this time
Now you're asking me what's going through my mind
The b-lines you paved, and the hands you waved
This should come as no surprise

And I see
Life with my butterfly and me

brandon heath - few less breaks

I've been walking around with my heart in my hand
I might ask you if you could ever understand
I can't take another break in my heart
So let me show you darling where to start

You think you know how to love me
But I think you might go and tear me apart
You think you know how to show me
But I could use a few less breaks in my heart

If there ever was a big mistake I made
I'm still broke from all the prices that I paid
I can't bring myself to linger in the past
I need something that I know is gonna last

You think you know how to love me
But I think you might go and tear me apart
You think you know how to show me
But I could use a few less breaks in my heart

brandon heath - fight another day

It's an uphill climb
But it's all you know
So you spin your wheels
And dig your heels and down you go

So predictable
But it's not your fault
How can you expect to do your best
When you're scared to fall

Cause the pain is real
But you will survive
That's how you know you're alive

Cause it's Okay Now, Hey Now
You can let go
That's when you
Find out, Find out
Everybody knows
That there just
Aint no, Aint no
Easier way out
I know it might not look that way
But You're gonna live to fight another day

There's a place I know
Outside of town
Let's get out of here
Where all our fears don't hang around

Here's another chance
Take it while you can
Cause it sure wont last
Moves so fast
And it's gone again

Pre-Chorus

Chorus

You wonder what you are made
I'm telling you now
You're gonna make somehow
What are you so afraid of

brandon heath - give me your eyes

Looked down from a broken sky
Traced out by the city lights
My world from a mile high
Best seat in the house tonight
Touched down on the cold black tile
Hold on for the sudden stop
Breath in the familiar shock
Of confusion and chaos
Are those people going somewhere?
Why have I never cared?

Chorus:
Give me your eyes for just one second
Give me your eyes so I can see
Everything that I keep missing
Give me your love for humanity
Give me your arms for the broken hearted
The ones that are far beyond my reach
Give me your heart for the once forgotten
Give me your eyes so I can see
yeah
yeah
yeah
yeah

Step out on a busy street
See a girl and our eyes meet
Does her best to smile at me
To hide whats underneath
Theres a man just to her right
Black suit and a bright red tie
To ashamed to tell his wife
He's out of work
He's buying time
Are those people going somewhere?
Why have I never cared?

Chorus

Ive Been there a million times
A couple of million eyes
Just moving past me by
I swear I never thought that I was wrong
Well I want a second glance
So give me a second chance
To see the way you see the people all alone

Chorus (x2)

brandon heath - i will lay you down

You've got the whole world on your shoulders
And it's more than you can bear
I hear you calling for some help
But is there anybody there?

Well I'm here to let you know
This was never meant for you
I know what you're going through

Come to me weary now
And I will lay you down
Throw all your cares aside
You will never be denied
Come set your burden free
You will be safe with me
Come to me weary now
I will lay you down

So don't you worry 'bout a thing
I'm gonna get you through the night
I know you're scared but it's gonna be alright
And if you wake before the light
Don't be afraid, just call my name
I'll hear you pray, I'm on my way, yeah, yeah

So come to me weary now
And I will lay you down
Throw all your cares aside
You will never be denied
Come set your burden free
You will be safe with me
Come to me weary now
I will lay you down

Everything's alright cause I am on your side
And if you need to you can hide in me
Cause all you need to know
I will never let you go
I'm the lover of your soul

So come to me weary now
And I will lay you down
Throw all your cares aside
You will never be denied
Come set your burden free
You will be safe with me
Come to me weary now
I will lay you down

brandon heath - i m not who i was

I wish you could see me now
I wish I could show you how
I'm not who I was
I used to be mad at you
A little on the hurt side too
But I'm not who I was

I found my way around
To forgiving you
Some time ago
But I never got to tell you so

I found us in a photograph
I saw me and I had to laugh
You know, I'm not who I was
You were there, you were right above me
And I wonder if you ever loved me
Just for who I was

When the pain came back again
Like a bitter friend
It was all that I could do
To keep myself from blaming you

I reckon it's a funny thing
I figured out I can sing
Now I'm not who I was
I write about love and such
Maybe 'cause I want it so much
I'm not who I was

I was thinking maybe I
I should let you know
I am not the same
But I never did forget your name
Hello

Well the thing I find most amazing
In amazing grace
Is the chance to give it out
Maybe that's what love is all about

I wish you could see me now
I wish I could show you how
I'm not who I was

brandon heath - if you call my name

I opened to door to my room and I thought of you
Painting my walls to the shade of your favorite blue
Dancing with a song in your head used to bother me
Now all I have is a song for some company

In my bright imagination
Blamed my shaky shot at love on the wind
In the end guess all I want you to say
Is that you want me to stay

If you called my name I would turn around
I would run to you
Sacrifice my shame I would follow,
I would follow you

Yesterdays gone so it's on with the rest of me
Should open my dreams with a dose of reality
And take another look at the bend in my history
Hoping that maybe you'll come chasing after me

If you called my name I would turn around
I would run to you
Sacrifice my shame I would follow,
I would follow you

Should I pay my penance
Would my price be enough for you
If I've got nothing up my sleeve
Would you believe

That if you called my name I would turn around
I would run to you
Sacrifice my shame I would follow,
I would follow you

brandon heath - it s no good to be alone

We're leaving you a message on your telephone
Everybody's wondering what you're doing home
Yeah, we're starting and you're missing the party
Can you hear it playing your favorite song
Everybody's singing but something's wrong
'Cause you're missing, 'cause you're missing
Hey, hey, are you listening, hey, hey, are you listening

It's no good to be alone
It's no good to be out there on your own
It's no good for you anymore than it is for me
It's no good, no good for you to be alone
Alone, alone, alone, no good to be alone

It's been a little while, you've been outta the scene
Spending all your time chasing down a dream
Takes a lifetime, takes a lifetime
It's a short life, it's a short life
You know it doesn't matter how high you climb
If no one's there to share the ride when you get there
Who's gonna be there

Nobody's suppose to be an island
Stuck out in the middle of the ocean on your own
I'm not giving up until I find you
Give me an S.O.S., I'll bring you home
It's no good for you to be alone

brandon heath - jesus in disguise

Ever get something in your head
It's nothing you've heard, or something you've read
Ever had a cut, but you never saw a blade
Brought to your knees, but you never prayed

(Chorus)
Jesus in disguise
Jehovah passing by
The burden of a tear
Hanging in your eye
Jesus in disguise
A scar across the sky
You were looking for a king
You would never recognize
Jesus in disguise

Ever feel like you've been somewhere before
You hold the key, you know which door
Speak the word your lips have never known
Because your heart told you so

(Chorus)
Jesus in disguise
Jehovah passing by
The burden of a tear
Hanging in your eye
Jesus in disguise
A scar across the sky
You were looking for a king
You would never recognize
Jesus in disguise

So open my eyes, wide as I can
Blind as I am, blind as I am
So open my eyes as wide as I can
Blind as I am, blind as I am

Jesus in disguise
Jesus in disguise

brandon heath - leaving eden

(One more step away)
Headlines read like a warning, we're under attack
(One more step away)
I just waved to a stranger, he didn't wave back
(One more step away)
And if it weren't for my TV, I wouldn't know what is real (One more step away)
My doctor can't do a thing for how I feel

(Chorus)
Feels like I'm leaving Eden
Feels like I'm leaving Eden

People are losing their homes to hurricanes
(One more step away)
Old lady living next door forgot her own name
(One more step away)
Teacher is hiding her Bible, but at least she's got a job (One more step away)
My local Salvation Army just got robbed oh

(chorus)
Feels like I'm leaving Eden
Feels like I'm leaving Eden oh
It's like I'm further away with every step I take
And I can't go back
'Cause I'm leaving Eden

I'm going, going home
I'm going, going home
There's no place, no place like home
There's no place, no place like home

(chorus)
When you're leaving Eden
When you're leaving Eden
It's like I'm further away with every step I take
And I can't go back
'Cause I'm leaving, leaving Eden

brandon heath - let s make it last

Rain come down tonight
Except for the bump on my head I?m feeling alright
Dancing to our favorite tune
I pulled you in way too soon
Bang went the drums we went boom
Yea

Running through the yard
Splashing through puddles with you without regard
Do you think the neighbors will care
So what if they do they?ll just stare
The kids will all say its not fair

The way that we love
The way that we laugh
It?s something worth seeing
So let?s make it last
Let?s make it last

Come some sunny day
We?ll call in sick to our jobs
What will we say
She?s coming down with a flu
I think that I?m catching it too
This is what love makes you do

The way that we love
The way that we laugh
It?s something worth seeing
So let?s make it last

The way that we love
The way that we laugh
It?s something worth seeing yea
So let?s make it last
Live out each moment
They go by so fast
Let?s make it last

brandon heath - listen up

Why are you crying
Did I say something wrong
Were'nt we just talking
Tell me whats going on

Cause I'm pretty sure my intentions
Were nothing more than conversation
Maybe you just needed someone
To listen to your heart

Maybe I spoke too soon
Maybe I said too much
Now that my face is blue
Think it's time I listen up
I've already said enough

Sometimes I do this
Thing is I'm so afraid
When it get's quiet
What you might have to say

Cause I'm guilty of
Overcompensation
I'm lost in my
Own translation
I apologize, I know I
Should listen to your heart

Chorus

There isn't anything that I could say
Not a word to get in the way
Of you, Of You, I am listening

Chorus
