Catching Lightning

Feel it out like a spider makes her web
It's time to see the proof
Truth is a cave in a cold backwater mountain
Isolated in the eyes of a new moon

Ohhh ohhh ohhh ohh
Yeh yeh

Ohh when you see fire, there is no higher high
Catching lightning all night till you see the horizon, in the morning light

Ohhh ohhh ohhh ohh
Yeh yeh

Ohhh ohhh ohhh ohh
Yeh yeh

Cargo cults comedies at bamboo airports
Straighten out so they see you
Sober up for the camera you’re facing
Switching the lights on in you

Ohh when you see fire, there is no higher high
Catching lightning all night till you see the horizon, in the morning light

Don’t check me out I'm out for lunch
Don’t check me out I'm out for lunch

We’re all catching lightning
We’re all catching lightning
We’re all catching
We’re all catching lightning
We’re all catching lightning
We’re all catching
We’re all catching
We’re all catching lightning

Conversations in D

It's when I say hello
It's when I call you on the phone
It's when I open up my heart enough to let you know

It's when I toss and turn at night
And wonder will you be alright?
Cos I don't have the answers much less the questions

Cos this is a one-way conversation
This is a one-way conversation

Man I know you've been let down
Even when you're not around
I can hear your voice tremble like it's hiding in a ghost town

And I wish we had more time
And a little piece of mind
Cos I don't have the answers much less the questions

Cos this is a one-way conversation
This is a one-way conversation
This is a one-way conversation

This is a one-way conversation
This is a one-way conversation
This is a one-way conversation
This is a one-way conversation

I don't have the answers much less the questions

Art can change the world

Art can change the world
Art can change the world

Paintbrush in a child's hand
See her universe expand
Color canvas with her love
Sharing joy and creation

Art can change the world
Art can change the world

Young man with his first guitar
Transported to worlds afar
Sharing songs with all the world
Melodies so magical

Art can change the world
I can change the world

Every moment is a chance to give
To someone who's hurting
Who's so deserving
Of a miracle

Art can change the world
You can change the world

Sculpture in refugee camps
Reminds us of our humanness
Come together as one blood
See what we're capable of

Art can change the world
We can change the world
