Verse-Chorus Lyrics

Lyrics by Gordon Alexander Reeves

Who Holds The Reins - Acoustic and Piano

Genres: Rock, Progessive

Who holds the reins
What are we destined for 
Can we steer our way
Who can cure the pain

The sands are shifting
Those who are leading 
Love themselves and use us as pawns
They have no heart and have to go

Who holds the reins
Who can cure the pain

We’re being lead down the path
The path to destruction 
Only they will endure the fire they bring
They don’t care but take care of themselves

Who holds the reins
What are we destined for 
Can we steer our way
Who can cure all our pain

What are we destined for 
Can we steer our way

Our home is being ruined each day
They don’t care but take care of themselves
Getting richer and richer at our expense
We have to wise up and steer our own way

Who holds the reins
Who can cure the pain

What are we destined for 
Can we steer our own way

What are we destined for 

Who holds the reins
Who can cure the pain

We have to steer our own way

Steer our own way

Soul (Aría Alta)

Genres: Pop, Rock, Progessive

You’re the only one I will never ever leave
You’re the one that holds the strings to my soul
You’re the only one who knows my thoughts
Together there’s nothing we can’t achieve 

No matter how far away we are we trust and know
That we will be true to our love and never stray
When l look into your eyes I see the truth
You’ll look into mine and know I’m yours

Doesn't matter wherever we are we’ll find our goal
You’re the one that holds the strings to my soul
You’re the only one I will never ever leave
You will always, always hold the strings to my soul

You’re the only one who knows my thoughts
Together there’s nothing we can’t achieve 

When l look into your eyes I see the truth
You’ll look into mine and know I’m yours
That we will be true to our love and never stray
No matter how far away we are we trust and know

Doesn't matter wherever we are we’ll find our goal
You’re the one that holds the strings to my soul

You’re the only one I will never ever leave
You will always, always hold the strings to my soul
To my soul

You’re the only one I will never ever leave
You’re the one that holds the strings to my soul
You’re the only one who knows my thoughts
Together there’s nothing we can’t achieve 

You’re the one that holds the strings to my soul

Doesn't matter wherever we are we’ll find our goal

We’ll find our goal

You are my soul

No Place To Roam (Aria Alta)

Genres: Pop, Rock, Progessive, Dance

The only place that we really even know
Every day we wake up and spin around the Sun
If we’re lucky we wake up beside the ones we love
We can plant the seeds and let them grow

There is no other world on which we can be alive
At least not within spitting distance of where we stand
If we’re lucky and pull together we can make this work
We plant the seeds and hope that they’ll survive

The only place that we really even know

We can plant the seeds and let them grow

We stand on the edge and look into the canyon below
Such beauty and wonder beneath our feet
Millions of years have brought us to this point
It’s up to us to feel our way and make a plan to follow
The only place that we really even know
Every day we wake up and spin around the Sun
If we’re lucky we wake up beside the ones we love
We can plant the seeds and let them grow

There is no other world on which we can be alive
At least not within spitting distance of where we stand
If we’re lucky and pull together we can make this work
We plant the seeds and hope that they’ll survive

The only place that we really even know

We plant the seeds and let them grow

This floating sphere that we find ourselves on is our only home
Make sure you let everyone know we have no other plan
No where else we can escape to if we make it uninhabitable
This planet Earth is our only home there is no other for us to roam

The only place 
The only place that we really even know

We spin and spin around the sun

Wake up and let’s make our way

This is our only home

There is no other for us to roam

There is no other 

This is our only home

Sun Goes Down (Male and Female vocals)

Genres: Rock

Woke this morning with the sunshine on my face
A nice warm shower to get me started
Coffee gave me courage to face the race
Ran for the bus to take down town

Lots of people milling around the square
Someone's preaching on the corner
Maybe he’s saving us from all our sins?
The morning’s gone and its so much warmer

Life is good and getting better
Lot’s of friends and things to do
Reading books and writing letters
Looking forward to catching up with you

Life is good and getting better


I’ll be there early so I’ll order drinks
Gin and Tonic or glass of wine?
I’ll do my best to get the corner bay
So we can talk, you can tell me about your day

The sun's gone down and the crowds are leaving
We should make our way back to your place
Another bottle of wine and a fabulous evening
Next we know….   the sun will be shining on both our faces

Life is good and getting better
Lot’s of friends and things to do
Looking forward to seeing other places
Next we know the sun is shining... on our faces

Life is good and getting better
It’s so good and much much better
Love being with you after the sun goes down
Love being with you after the sun goes down


After the sun goes down

Sunny Day

Genres: Pop, Rock

The sun is out and shining bright
Blue sky above from left to right
It’s gonna be a really good day today
I’m not staying in I’m going out to play

I’m gonna hike across the moors
No more wood or concrete floors
I’m gonna feel the grass beneath my feet
This day is gonna make me feel complete

Looking forward to seeing you out there
We can take a picnic with us so we can share
It does us good when we’ve got time to kill
Love to eat up there on the top of the hill

It’s gonna be a really good day today
We‘re making sure we’re out and play

The air’s so good and clean and pure
Breathe it in, you know it’s good for sure
We’ve got all day to have so much fun
Loving being out in this summer sun
 
It’s gonna be a really good day today
We‘re making sure we’re out to play

The sun is out and shining bright
Blue sky above from left to right
It’s turning out to be a really good day today
We’re not staying in we’ve gone out to play

We’ve been hiking across the moors
Away from wood or concrete floors
We’ve felt the grass beneath our feet
This day is gonna make us feel complete

The air’s been good and clean and pure
Breathed it in, you know it’s good for sure
We’ve had all day and had so much fun
Loved being out in this summer sun

We’ve had all day and had so much fun
Loved being out in this summer sun

Loved being out in this summer sun

Out in the summer sun

The Way You Make Me Feel

Genres: Pop, Rock

I’m amazed at the way you make me feel
Even when you’re just walking at my side 
In the morning waking up beside you 
The tingles begin that make me feel so real

The way you laugh and sometimes tease
Your smile, the way you swish your hair
The way you walk and the way you talk
Everything about you shakes me to my knees

Love the way you make me feel 
I love the way you walk
I love the way you talk
The way you make me feel so real

I can’t explain it in words, maybe it’s a potion
The way you make me feel is so electric
I feel alive and wide awake, it builds me up 
Flooding through me, with such emotion

The way you make me feel   so  so real

The way you laugh and sometimes tease
The way you walk and the way you talk
Your smile and the way you swish your hair
Everything about you brings me to my knees

I’m amazed at the way you make me feel
Even when you’re just walking at my side 
In the morning waking up beside you 
The tingles begin and make me feel so real

Love the way you make me feel 
I love the way you walk
I love the way you talk
The way you make me feel so real

I’m amazed at the way you make me feel
Even when you’re just walking at my side 
In the morning waking up beside you 
The tingles begin and make me feel so real

Love the way you make me feel 
I love the way you walk
I love the way you talk
The way you make me feel so real

Your smile and the way you swish your hair

The way you walk and the way you talk

I love the way you make me feel 

The way you make me feel

Where Are We Going

Genres: Pop, Rock

What are we doing, where are we going
The weather’s changing, the Earth is warming
Water is getting scarce, Population’s growing, 
It’s only us, the people, who are worrying

Stop the killing, talk the talk and walk the walk

Our politicians are raging and making war
For our kids to fight and be the victims
Bombs are hurling in all directions
People are dying all over the planet

Stop the killing, talk the talk and walk the walk

Bombs and famine, they don’t need to happen
Our leaders, both religious and politicians
Need to dial it back and curb their ranting
Talk the talk and walk the walk, stop the killing

Stop the killing, talk the talk and walk the walk

Stop the killing, walk the walk and talk the talk 

Rivers are running dry, the crops are failing
Lakes are drying, the forests are burning
These sad fools, are strutting and preening 
They need to be gone so we can start turning

Stop the killing, talk the talk and walk the walk

What are we doing, where are we going
Population’s growing, water is getting scarce
The weather’s changing, the Earth is warming
It’s only us, the people, who are worrying
  
Stop the killing, talk the talk and walk the walk

We can’t go on ignoring all the signs around us
We need to stop the destruction of our only home
We’re speeding headlong into hell on earth
Our children’s children will not survive the mess we're leaving

We can’t leave it to those in their ivory tower
We've got to wake up and take the Power

What are we doing, where are we going
It’s only us, the people, who are worrying

Stop the killing, talk the talk and walk the walk
Stop the killing, walk the walk and talk the talk 

Stop the killing, wake up and take the power

Bestseller

Genres: Pop, Rock

Scribbling away to get the words down on paper
Deadline’s come and gone and come and gone again
Can’t  really push this off for later
Have to get out of this block before I go insane

Gotta make the New York Times best seller list
No ifs and buts this time, I’m working to the formula
Word for word, page by page, you get the gist
Don’t know if I can stay awake, I’m working on my stamina

Cups of coffee, take break, more cups of coffee
Read some Baldacci, read some Patterson
Maybe I should try some peppermint tea 
Maybe I should read some Clancy or some Grisham

Save the words I might hit the wrong key 
Erase the file and have to start from scratch
I have an idea that will spice up the plot

Deadline coming, I should finish on the dot
Deadline coming, I should finish on the dot
Deadline coming, I should finish on the dot
Deadline coming, I should finish on the dot

Bestseller

Scribbling away to get the words down on paper

Deadlines come and gone and come and gone again

Can’t  really push this off for later

Have to get out of this block before I go insane

Gotta make the New York Times best seller list
No ifs and buts this time, I’m working to the formula
Word for word, page by page, you get the gist
Don’t know if I can stay awake, I’m working on my stamina

Cups of coffee, take break, more cups of coffee
Read some Baldacci, read some Patterson
Maybe I should try some peppermint tea 
Maybe I should read some Clancy or some Grisham

Save the words I might hit the wrong key 
Erase the file and have to start from scratch
I have an idea that will spice up the plot
Deadline coming, I should finish on the dot

Gotta make the New York Times best seller list
No ifs and buts this time, I’m working to the formula
Word for word, page by page, you get the gist
Don’t know if I can stay awake, I’m fading fast

Bestseller?

Edge of Darkness

Genres: Rock

We’re gonna get through this together
Even if it takes us ‘til forever
All we have to do is hold tight
Be strong and ready for a fight

We’re standing on the Edge of Darkness
Looking to the side of Angels

There’s a long hard and bumpy road ahead
We’ve got to get there before we lose the thread
Twists and turns and ups and downs
Fighting off the clucking clowns

We’re standing on the Edge of Darkness
Looking to the side of Angels

We’re gonna get through this together
Even if it takes us ‘til forever
All we have to do is hold tight
Be strong and ready for a fight

We’re standing on the Edge of Darkness
Standing on the Edge of Darkness

        Darkness

Looking to the side of Angels

Let's take the courage to stop the Dark

Stand together and do what's right

Bringing reason back in sight

Meet each other in the light

Take the journey cross the abyss, 

Leave the Darkness far behind

Join us on the side of Angels

On the side of Angels



Side of Angels



Of Angels
