Life Is A Journey

A Smile Can Feel So Good

Music by Alex Gwerder
Words by Alex Gwerder & Jim Bows

A man must make his own way in this world
And fulfill his destiny
He likes the happy feeling he gets
He gives his all and gives his best

His time has come , all the hard work has paid off
His name is known both far and wide
The papers write about the things he's achieved
He's got a good feeling inside

But when he walks in his hometown
He feels concealed
No recognition
All lips are sealed

Bad news will always travel like the wind, around the neighbourhood
Good news takes longer, but a smile can feel so good

Ignore the haters, and carry on
Nothing can stop him now
The world is faithful to the people who try
Hard work will make you strong

But when he walks in his hometown
He feels concealed
No recognition
All lips are sealed
No recognition
All lips are sealed

Bad news will always travel like the wind, around the neighbourhood
Good news takes longer, but a smile can feel so good
Good news takes longer, so much longer but a smile can feel so good

Back On The Road

Music by Alex Gwerder
Words by Alex Gwerder & Jim Bows

I wake up slowly, my body aches
It's monday morning, I'm running late
Rain is falling, I step outside
Should I just go back, I can't decide

My phone starts ringing, and so it goes
So many problems, I've got to solve
The pressure's building, the valve is tight
But I'll feel better, come tonight

I'm going back on the road
'Cos my life is the show
I can't wait to get back on the road

The sound of music, is in my soul
I've got to play it, that rock n' roll
Makes all my worries, just melt away
I need that feeling, every day

I'm going back on the road
'Cos my life is the show
I can't wait to get back on the road

I'm going back on the road
'Cos my life is the show
I can't wait to get back on the road

I'm going back on the road
'Cos my life is the show
I can't wait to get back on the road

I'm going back on the road
I'm going back, back on the road

Let It Flow

Music by Alex Gwerder
Words by Alex Gwerder & Jim Bows

There are times, I can't hear myself thinking
Too much noise, I can feel myself sinking
Got these thoughts running 'round in my head that need a place to go
Give me time on my own, all alone, just let it flow
Give me time, a quiet place where I can go, just let it flow
Just let it flow

There's only one thing can help me climb out of this hole
Pick up my guitar and play some rock 'n' roll

I'm on call, gotta solve every problem
Juggling balls, try not to drop them
Got these thoughts running 'round in my head that need a place to go
Give me time on my own, all alone, just let it flow
Give me time, a quiet place where I can go, just let it flow
Just let it flow

There's only one thing can help me climb out of this hole
Pick up my guitar and play some rock 'n' roll

Let it flow

There's only one thing can help me climb out of this hole
Pick up my guitar and play some rock 'n' roll

Rock 'n roll, rock 'n roll,
Rock 'n roll, rock 'n roll

Life Is A Journey

Music by Alex Gwerder
Words by Jim Bows

I'm just fine with who I am, and I am proud of what I've done
I'm a simple man, and not the chosen one

I live the way I want to live, and do the things I like to do
Good times and the bad times, I could make it through

With a woman who stood by me
Shared the joy and shared the pain
Life is a journey
There's nothing I would change

I make music when I can, you know I'm a music man
Guitar in the corner, it's part of who I am

Pick a line that feels so good, touches my soul the way it should
All I need is here, made of steel and wood

There are people who can't hear what I'm saying
They don't understand
They build you up, just to tear you down
Life is a journey
And the road can be hard

I need time for myself, time to be alone
Silence is all around me, miles from home

When I lose sight of where I'm going
Then the seeds of doubt, they start growing
Think about tomorrow, where will I be

Life is a journey, you and me
I've been through it all, I didn't fall
Life is a journey, you and me
There's nothing I would change
There's nothing I would change

Walking On A Fine Line

Words & Music by Jim Bows

Way I feel lately it's driving me crazy
Too many requests no time for recess
I took down the mirror that's hanging on the wall
I'm walking on a fine line, hope the lord don't let me fall

I'm growing weary and that's not like me
Losing my faith in doing the right thing
Chasing after daydreams didn't bring no change at all
I'm walking on a fine line, hope the lord don't let me fall

I've gotta stand firm don't let the screw turn
Take a deep breath yeah give up this endless
Fighting with the ego, ain't no fight at all
I'm walking on a fine line, hope the lord don't let me fall

My fires burning, the wheels still turning
My motors running, I keep on coming
Closer to the writing that's written on the wall
I'm walking on a fine line, hope the lord don't let me fall

I'm walking on a fine line, hope the lord don't let me fall
