"Did You Know"

Words & Music by William Hayden 2014 (c) (p) BMI

Did you know that before you even knew me

When you seemed to see right through me that I loved you so?

Did you know when I see through your disguise

In the places that you hide I see the hurt you keep inside

Did you know?

Did you know that I’d give up all I own

The world and all I’ve known so you’d never be alone

Did you know?

When you’re weary from wandering you’ll never be alone

I’ll be there to take your hand and lead you home

Did you know when your heart breaks in two

And you don’t know what to do I’ll be holding you?

Did you know for all your questions why

You’re the apple of my eye and for you I would die

Did you know?

When you’re weary from wandering you’ll never be alone

I’ll be there to take your hand and lead you home

Did You Know?

When you’re weary from wandering you’ll never be alone

I’ll be there to take your hand and lead you home

Did You Know? Did You Know? Did You Know

 

"In Your Eyes"

Words & Music by William Hayden 2014 (c) (p) BMI

I didn’t think that it would happen

But you caught me by surprise

Waiting for my life to begin

That’s when I found it in your eyes

There must have been something wrong with me

Stumbling around like I was blind

I tried to find my way but I could not see

Then I saw the light inside your eyes

In your eyes I can see forever

So surprised at what I found inside

In your eyes I know I’m never far from home

When I’m lost in your eyes

I can see myself inside your eyes so true

You know I’d stay there if I could

Cause if everyone saw me like you do

You know I’d never look so good

In your eyes I can see tomorrow

So surprised at what I found inside

In your eyes I see the better part of me

When I look in your eyes

In your eyes I can see forever

So surprised at what I found inside

In your eyes I know I’m never far from home

When I’m lost in your eyes, In your eyes

In your eyes, In your eyes, In our eyes

 

"Dream of You"

Words & Music by William Hayden 2014 (c) (p) BMI

I had another dream last night that you were home with me

We laughed and played and talked all night, just like the way it used to be

I knew you really couldn’t stay, you had to go start something new

But if you don’t mind anyway, I’ll stay right here and dream of you

Where did the time go, I built my life around you

Today’s the tomorrow I dreamt about yesterday

And now all that I can do, is dream of you, dream of you

Everyone has a reason, a reason for what they do

Through the smiles, through the seasons, my reason was you

The only thing that never changes, is that everything always changes

But things here are still the same, no sound when I call your name

Where did the time go, I built my life around you

Today’s the tomorrow I dreamt about yesterday

And now all that I can do, is dream of you, dream of you

Where did the time go, I built my life around you

Today’s the tomorrow I dreamt about yesterday

And now there’s nothing I can do

Where did the time go, Where did the time go

Today’s the tomorrow I dreamt about yesterday

And now there’s nothing I can do, but dream of you

Dream of you, dream of you, dream of you

 

"Rainbows"

Words & Music by William Hayden 2014 (c) (p) BMI

Girl don’t cry because it’s over, let’s smile because it was

I can’t pretend it doesn’t hurt me too, when it does

You were the one who taught me how to dream

How to close my eyes so I could really see

We lived our dreams from the stories we told

Walking on rainbows searching for our pot of gold

That’s what can happen when you give it all

Sometimes you fly sometimes you fall

I guess that’s just the way it goes

When you climb rainbows, when you climb rainbows

We fell asleep in the tall grass, making shapes in the clouds

But just like the clouds our love passed us by without a sound

That’s what can happen when you give it all

Sometimes you fly sometimes you fall

I guess that’s just the way it goes

When you climb rainbows, when you climb rainbows

That’s what can happen when you give it all

Sometimes you fly sometimes you fall

I guess that’s just the way it goes

When you climb rainbows, when you climb rainbows

 

"Because of You"

Words & Music by William Hayden 2014 (c) (p) BMI

There’s so much that I want to say, I just don’t know if I can

How can I find the words to explain, what I’m still trying to understand?

When the world was dark and I couldn’t see, I took a walk in the pain

You were always there with me, and you carried me all the way

Love can bring you down and make you cry, but your love makes me high

Your love saved me; your love gave to me everything that I am is because of you                       

Your smile became my own, you showed me who I could be

Though I could never earn what you own, the love you gave became me

Who would have known the only way to gain, is to give it all away

The only wealth I could ever claim, is a debt I could never repay

Love can bring you down and make you cry, but your love makes me high                                   

Your love saved me; your love gave to me everything that I am is because of you

Love can bring you down and make you cry but your love makes me high

Your love saved me; your love gave to me everything that I am

Your love saved me; your love gave to me                                   

Your love showed me; your love flows in me                       

Your love shows me how

Your love saved me; your love gave to me                                   

Your love showed me; your love flows in me                       

Your love shows me how

Your love saved me

 

"Spring Will Come"

Words & Music by William Hayden 2014 (c) (p) BMI

We’re almost home, from driving in the rain

Girl it’s been a long hard road, to get here from the pain

It’s been the coldest winter, this town has ever known

But soon the seeds you planted last fall will start to grow

Girl it’s been a long cold winter, but soon you’ll see new life begin

And spring will come again, spring will come again

The seasons have come and gone, since that rainy day

The angels had been waiting; I guess they finally got their way

When the nights seem to get colder, I think about a warmer day

In the garden where your colors used to be, girl I can hear you say

Boy it’s been a long cold winter, but I’ve seen new life begin

And spring will come again, spring will come again

I know it’s been a long cold winter, but soon you’ll see new life begin

And spring will come again, spring will come again, spring will come again

We’re almost home

 

"Just Like You"

Words & Music by William Hayden 2014 (c) (p) BMI

Suddenly I woke up and it’s a brand new day

I didn’t think you’d make me feel this way

I’ve been looking a long time for somebody just like you

I’ve been waiting a long time for you

I’ve traveled all around the world hoping to find

The better part of me, and the hand that fits in mine

I’ve been waiting a long time to tell someone I love you

Now I’m thinking that someone is you

I’ve been looking a long time for somebody just like you

I’ve been waiting a long time for you

I’ve traveled all around the world just to find

Your shining smiling face and your hand holding mine

I’ve been looking a long time for somebody just like you

I’ve been waiting a long time for you

I’ve traveled all around the world just to find

Your shining smiling face and your hand holding mine

I’ve been looking a long time for somebody just like you

I’ve been waiting a long time for you

I’ve been looking a long time for somebody just like you

I’ve been waiting a long time for you

 

"Between The Lines"

Words & Music by William Hayden 2014 (c) (p) BMI

Today I opened a box of yesterday

Found the letters you wrote to me

They took me back to another place

Where our footprints used to be           

I walked around inside your letters

Crawled between the words inside

Just want to stay where life seems better

Where I can leave this world behind

Where I can hide between the lines

And turn my back to today

Where it’s you I can find, between the lines

Blue skies and lazy days

Did the sun really move that slow?

Now when time seems to slip away

There’s a place that I can go

I can crawl inside your words

And find shelter from the pain

I can walk between the lines

And be near you, just one more time again

I can hide between the lines and turn my back to the pain

Because it’s you I can find

Where I hide between the lines and turn my back to today

Because it’s you I can find between the lines
Today I opened a box of yesterday

 

"Out of My Mind"

Words & Music by William Hayden 2014 (c) (p) BMI

Holes in my pockets and dreams in my mind

Seems memories are all that I own

Too far from home, too many nights stoned

Too many two dollar wines

Last night I had the same old dream

I dreamt you were still here with me

Too many words spoken, too many times broken

Too many dreams about what could be

In my mind is where I’m living

In my mind is where I hide

Can’t find my way while I’m still looking inside           

For another place, another time                                   

I know I’ve got to be out of my mind                       

All of this time living alone

I never counted the days or the cost

Now looking back on what I left behind

Was it you or me that I lost?

In my mind is where I’m living

In my mind is where I hide

Can’t find my way while I’m still looking inside           

For another place, another time                                   

You know I’ve got to be out of my mind                       

In my mind is where I’m living

In my mind is where I hide

Can’t find my way while I’m still looking inside           

To another place, Oh, another time                                   

You know I’ve got to be out of my mind

Got to be out of my mind

Oh, not to get out of my mind

Oh, got to get out of my mind

Got to get out of my mind

Got to get out, get out of my mind

I’ve got to get out of my mind

 

"Free"

Words & Music by William Hayden 2014 (c) (p) BMI

I want to go as far as my eyes can see

As far as my two legs can carry me

I just need to be where I can breathe

While my heart is young and I am free

I’m free far from home

I’m so free on my own

I want to go where the road takes me

There’s no other place that I have to be

I need to be where I can be me

Or I can be anyone that I want to be

I’m free far from home

I’m so free on my own

Sometimes the road can be lonely

Sometimes the nights can be cold

I guess that’s just the price of freedom

Some days I just feel so old

I’m free far from home

I’m so free on my own

Sometimes my dreams come back to me

From the depths of my memory

There was a time when I was really free

A place where I could really be loved

I was loved, I was loved

I was free when I was home

I was free safe at home

I was free when I was home

I was free when I was home

Wish I could be, free

 

"Coming Home"

Words & Music by William Hayden 2014 (c) (p) BMI

Too many days since I’ve been gone

Too many nights I’ve been alone

Too many roads, too far away from home

In my heart I know there’s still a place

A place where I belong

And how I long to see your face

It’s been too long

I’m coming home, I’m coming home

I know I really can’t go home again 

Things never stay the same

But home’s the only place I’ve ever known

Where I can heal from the pain

I’m going to pack my bags, going to leave tonight

I know I was so wrong

I’ve got to do what I know is right

I’ve got to get back to where I belong

I’m coming home, I’m coming home
Is that your face I see, Is that you reaching out to me

There’s nothing in this world that can stop be now

I’m running as fast, as fast as I know how

I’m coming home, I’m coming home, I’m coming home

I’m coming home, I’m coming home, I’m coming home

 

"Again"

Words & Music by William Hayden 2014 (c) (p) BMI

Here I go again

Just when I thought my life was over

Another chance to begin, again

I was empty underneath my skin

More forsaken than I had ever been

Now something’s stirring within, again

Just when I thought I would never feel this way but then

My heart’s light as a feather and I’m alive again

The earth had lost its green to brown

The sky had lost its sun

But deep beneath the frozen ground a new life had begun

The world was in disguise, hidden by all its sin

Suddenly I opened my eyes, again

Just when I thought I would never, see this day begin

Gray clouds move over, the sun is shining again

Just when I thought I would never pass this way again

Everything’s so familiar and now I’m home again

Here I go again

 

"Invisible Man"

Words & Music by William Hayden 2010 (c) (p) BMI

If I’ve been keeping to myself
If I don’t have that much to say
It’s ‘cause I know that I just can’t stay
Tomorrow I’ll be on my way

My mind wants to be still
My heart longs to belong
But I don’t know if I ever will
You see I’ve been moving for so long

I’m the invisible man see me while you can
I’m here today but tomorrow I’ll be gone
I’m the invisible man

Well, I don’t use smoke or mirrors
But she seemed to see right through
Through this flesh and these bones
Right through the man she never knew

Be careful don’t get too near
I hide my heart in my sleeve
I’ll give it to you and then I’ll disappear
Oh, and then you will believe

I’m the invisible man just watch my slight of hand
I’m here today but tomorrow I’ll be gone
I’m the invisible man

I’ve been hiding in the rain
I don’t know how much longer I can last
Trying to find peace in the pain
And in the shadows of my past

I’ve been running from something
Something that I just can’t see
I’ve been running from something
Maybe I’m running from me

I’m the invisible man see me if you can
I’m here today but tomorrow I’ll be gone
I’m the invisible man

I’m the invisible man please see me if you can
I’m here today but tomorrow I’ll be gone
I’m the invisible man

I’m the invisible man see me if you can
I’m here today but tomorrow I’ll be gone
I’m the invisible man

 

"Since You’ve Been Gone"

Words & Music by William Hayden 2010 (c) (p) BMI

Yesterday just seems so long ago and today just seems so long
Tomorrow will never come since you’ve been gone
I spend my days just wasting time don’t know what else to do
Than to sit and close my eyes and think of you

Yesterday just seems so long ago and today just seems so long
Since you’ve been gone, Since you’ve been gone

Excuse me Mr. Sun, why do you have to shine
Why don’t you save your sunny days for another time
I seem to spend all my days in a world made of shades of grey
Without your shining face the world just looks that way

Yesterday just seems so long ago and today just seems so long
Since you’ve been gone, Since you’ve been gone, Since you’ve been gone

So many times I’ve asked myself why did you have to go
But I already know that I don’t want to know
Sometimes my heart still dreams of you and I wish that you were near
When I open up my eyes and you’re not here

Yesterday just seems so long ago and today just seems so long
Since you’ve been gone, Since you’ve been gone,
Since you’ve been gone, Since you’ve been gone

 

"Your Love"

Words & Music by William Hayden 2010 (c) (p) BMI

Did you know it’s you I think about
When I do it makes me smile out loud
All my friends say all I talk about
Is the love that I don’t want to live without

Only you can turn me inside out
When I see your smile or your cute little pout
What I feel is real and I have no doubt
That I never want to live without
Your Love, your Smile, your Laugh, your Love

When you came along I was down and out
Trying to figure out what life is all about
Then you took my hand and you helped me out
You gave me something to sing about
Your Love, your Smile, your Laugh, our Love

 

"Movin' On"

Words & Music by William Hayden 2010 (c) (p) BMI

I watched her in the mirror, as I drove out of town
She made it oh so clear, she didn’t want me around
Sometimes I still hear her voice, and sometimes I see her face
I say she didn’t mean that much to me, and someone will take her place
I’m movin', movin' on, Yes, I’m movin', movin' on

She thought my heart would break in pieces, when she finally let me go
What I did with all those pieces, I guess she’ll never know
Sometimes I have to tell myself, that things can really change
That my heart won’t skip a beat, the next time I hear her name
I’m movin', movin' on, Yes, I’m movin', movin' on

There I go again, my mind wonders to that place
Where I can see her face, but I know that I can’t stay
I’m movin' on, movin' on, it’s alright

Time slips right through my fingers, but the thing that I can’t grasp
Is that I can’t stop these voices, and the pictures from my past
Now driving down the highway, with two fingers on the wheel
I tell myself it’s over, but that’s not the way it feels
But I’m movin', I’m movin' on, Yes, I’m movin, movin on

 

"Ordinary Man"

Words & Music by William Hayden 2010 (c) (p) BMI

Another day, still lying in bed, searching for the strength to begin
Another day, going through the motions, tomorrow I’ll do it all again

I watch the days go by and I wonder, like watching sand through an hourglass
Seems like I’m either living for tomorrow, or I’m living in the past

I’m just an ordinary man, I hold my heart tight in my hand
I’m just an ordinary man, just want someone to understand

Some days it seems I’m running in circles, and sometimes I just can’t decide
I want to go in the right direction, but get lost in all my foolish pride

Yea, I get so lost without you, sometimes I’d call your name out loud
somehow I know you always hear me, though I feel like I’m lost in the crowd

I’m just an ordinary man, when I’m cut down to my soul
I reach out to take your hand, because I know you love will make me whole

I love the way that you love me, you hold me up when I can’t stand
And did you know that when you’re with me, I become more than I am

I’m just an ordinary man, oh, but when you hold my hand
I become more than I am, then I’m not just an ordinary man

Oh, yea, with you I’m superman

 

"I Still Think of You"

Words & Music by William Hayden 2010 (c) (p) BMI

I thought of you today
Seems so long ago and far away
I could see you smiling at me
Like a faded memory

Days go by and life goes on
Things have changed now since you’ve been gone
I still think of you and all the times we had
All the love we shared the good times and the bad
I still think of you I feel your hand in mine
I can’t believe that after all this time, I still think of you

This is not how I thought it would be
We had so many plans so many dreams
Though I’ve left them all behind
The pictures linger in my mind

You’ve given me so many sweet memories
You know you’ll always be a part of me
I still think of you and all the times we had
All the love we shared the good times and the bad
I still think of you I feel your hand in mine
I can’t believe that after all this time, I still think of you

Days go by and life goes on
Things have changed now since you’ve been gone
I still think of you and all the times we had
All the love we shared the good times and the bad
I still think of you I feel your hand in mine
I can’t believe that after all this time
I still think of you, I still think of you, I still think of you

 

"This Road"

Words & Music by William Hayden 2010 (c) (p) BMI

Walk with me down the road

Hold my hand and I won’t be alone

Watch with me as the road unfolds

When evening comes we’ll be safe at home

Stay with me let’s talk awhile

Let’s share our dreams, share our stories

I want to hear you laugh, just want to see you smile

There’s no one in the world but you and me

Nobody knows just what’s up ahead around the bend

Just look around we’ll never be here again

On this road

Walk with me down the road

Hold my hand and you won’t be alone

Let’s make our plans; let’s live our dreams

The road may be shorter than it seems

Nobody knows just what’s up ahead around the bend

Just look around we’ll never be here again

On this road, On this road

Nobody knows just what’s up ahead around the bend

Just look around we’ll never be here again

On this road, On this road, this road
