The Grand Slam 03:38
lyrics
buy track
Talking with my soul Looking for the right way Trying to make it better day after day Focused on every step, every shot I make Waiting for that moment, hoping it's not too late I need a little time for me Seems like it's never enough It's like living on a wire Wake up today and believe until the end It's your Grand Slam Every day fight until the end for your Grand Slam Somebody decides when I'm right or wrong Somebody says that I'm not alone Everybody seems to know the key to hit in life It's called "Passion & Sacrifice" Now I know perfection's not enough And I need more than fortune and love I see the crowd and I'm afraid to die It's always time to fight Wake up today and believe until the end It's your Grand Slam Every day fight until the end for your Grand Slam (One) Melbourne (Two) Paris (Three) London (Four) New York City Game, set and match Wake up today and believe until the end It's your Grand Slam Every day fight until the end for your Grand Slam The first time you came really close to winning The second time even closer So don't give up now, don't give up And try again till the last game And you'll be the winner of the Grand Slam Until the last game The Grand Slam Until the last game Come on

Born in the '70s 02:41

My eyes were open My ears were ready Ready to lead me to my place in this world Thanks to the records my father used to play I was too young to remember a name Believe it or not, I'm still hearing that sound It's stuck in my head I was born, I was born in the '70s Born in the '70s I was born, I was born in the '70s Born in the '70s Here comes the '90s A troubled teenage boy That was the first time I heard that voice So now I can't get away from the choices I made Dreaming about being a rocker one day Believe it or not, I'm still feeling that fire inside me No matter what stage I do what I can and I've nothing to complain about Maybe I'll have some regrets But at least I don't care I was born, I was born in the '70s Born in the '70s I was born, I was born in the '70s Born in the '70s I was born, I was born in the '70s Born in the '70s I was born, I was born in the '70s Born in the '70s Late, late '70s

Walking with You 04:42
lyrics
buy track
When you start to realize that time is running out And dark men are coming but there's nowhere to hide If I die for you, son, don't look back and just run We took this road that never ends Losing home and your innocence I told you stories and lies just to keep you alive There's no reason to hate or kill someone But you have to know that you're not alone 'Cause I'm walking with you I'm walking with you No matter what they say No matter what they do I'm walking with you I'm walking with you No matter what they say No matter what they do It's cold outside, snow and blood all around Hoping we finally find your sister and ma Another ghost town can only break me down There's no reason to hate or kill someone But you have to know that you'll never be alone 'Cause I'm walking with you I'm walking with you No matter what they say No matter what they do I'm walking with you I'm walking with you No matter what they say It doesn't matter what they do I'm still walking with you I'm walking with you I'm walking with you I'm still walking with you I'm walking with you I'm walking with you No matter what they say It doesn't matter what they do I'm still walking with you I'm walking with you I'm walking with you

Eyes on Me 03:28
lyrics

I stopped my car in the parking lot I can't pretend to be the one And I feel so wrong 'Cause I don't seem to be strong There's no way to fix it now Maybe it's our last night And our, and our past seems like only wasted time I can understand how you feel inside 'Cause your tears, your tears never lie And I can only touch your face again Put your eyes on me, babe Keep your eyes on me, baby You've never seemed so real You've never been so real Put your eyes on me, babe Keep your eyes on me, baby You've never seemed so real You've never been so real to me Eyes on me, eyes on me, eyes on me We feel the pain of losing our good times But there's no way back And we'll never forget those days and our memories I know your eyes, they're beautiful And I, I'll never find the words to say goodbye And I can only touch your face again Put your eyes on me, babe Keep your eyes on me, baby You've never seemed so real You've never been so real Put your eyes on me, babe Keep your eyes on me, baby You've never seemed so real You've never been so real to me Eyes on me, eyes on me Eyes on me, eyes on me Eyes on me I'll never be your love Eyes on me I'll never be your love again And we can't ever be just friends Eyes on me I'll never be your love Eyes on me I'll never be your love again But I'm just trying to be your friend Eyes on me, eyes on me, eyes on me

My Favorite Hour 04:09
lyrics

I know your heart is gold and not for me I know your heart is cold and you're not real But I've seen you for a while at that fancy bar Sexy in your summer dress And I can only dream you'll be mine What are you waiting for? (I'm waiting) Are you waiting for the perfect guy? What are you waiting for? (I'm waiting) I'm pretty sure he'll let you down I can make you happy right now This is my... This is mine This is my favorite hour When the world is ready... This is my... This is mine This is my favorite hour When the world is ready to turn in the same way I saw your friends, they were staring at me I saw your friends talking about the man I should be But I can get my guitar and be the man that I am And write a song about how I'm fucking lonesome at the end I'm still waiting (Hoping and waiting) 'Cause I can't choose between "love – or just having fun" I'm still waiting (Hoping and waiting) I'm really glad to see you down And I feel alright now This is my... This is mine This is my favorite hour When the world is ready... This is my... This is mine This is my favorite hour When the world is ready... This is my... This is mine This is my favorite hour When the world is ready... This is my... This is a man's favorite hour Hoping the world is ready to turn a different way My favorite hour My favorite hour My favorite hour
