YOU'RE NEVER TOO OLD

TO GORMAN ALEXANDER

TODD CORCORAN, vocal/guitar

01. DANCING UNDER THE MIDNIGHT SUN (3'00)

music & lyrics by TODD CORCORAN
you’re never too old / you’re never too young / to dance all day / under the midnight sun / come with me / and you will see // you can take it slow / you can dance alone / find someone to hold / under the midnight sun // dancing under the midnight sun / i see your face / and i want to have some fun / you’ll never believe what’s going on // there aren’t any who can fake it / everybody’s got to do it ’til there heart shakes / we could all be under the sun / dancing now // dancing under the midnight sun / it’s always a good time to go / so why don’t you take some time / and come with me // see us all having fun dancing under the midnight sun / you don’t have to feel so alone / it doesn’t matter what you do / it won’t take you very long // dancing under the midnight sun / with you / i can’t think of what i’d rather do

02. WILL THESE HARD TIMES NEVER BE GONE (2'30)

music & lyrics by TODD CORCORAN
i’ve been sitting here a long time / something’s always going wrong / my heart keeps on cryin’ out / will these hard times never be gone // they’re the same old problems / round and round they’re led along / hear the innocent pleading out / will these hard times never be gone // these hard times will never be gone

03. LONGING TO BE FREE (3'37)

music & lyrics by TODD CORCORAN
we’re so free and alive / we’ve got our mores / and we’ve got our roles / so get in line / keep moving / and don’t forget to die // but what about this longing to be free / it’s kind of funny to see / how everybody knows / the need to be free / when we’re not alone / everybody feels / the need to be free / the need to be me / the need to believe as one / rolling down the freeway ’til we’re gone // you got to believe you can be free / and if somebody says / they can save you / run far away // it troubles me / how some will never be free / from the bars and walls / that have collected in their minds / can’t be the reason i feel right but alone // what feels so wrong / is how little some will take / to let it go / all day long / is there anyone out there longing to be free

04. THE SUNLIGHT ALWAYS SHINES THROUGH (4'13)

music & lyrics by TODD CORCORAN
i should tell you what will go wrong / but i can’t say / ignore the questions / forget the past / the sunlight always shines through // i know sometimes the pain is strong / too strong for words / nurse the sorrow / take your time / the sunlight always shines through // i don’t know why the pain moves on / yet it does go / climb through the darkness / open your heart / the sunlight always shines through

05. WE'RE ALREADY HERE (4'52)

music & lyrics by TODD CORCORAN
there seems to be a place for me / a place for you / a place for all / where there are trees / and there are birds / and encouraging words / happiness / understanding / and grace // we’re here / we’re already here / there’s no reason to fight or fear / all can be yours / if you accept what’s in store / and know that we’re already here

06. EVERYBODY NEEDS A LITTLE HOPE (4'25)

music & lyrics by TODD CORCORAN
everybody needs a little hope in their heart / everybody’s will gets broken once in a while / everybody seems so right / when you know they’re wrong // there’s got to be a lesson / from everything we’ve seen / there’s got to be some hope / outside of all the misery // everybody’s got a little trouble in their mind / everybody’s got a little something left to find / everybody needs a little hope / and i do too // there’s got to be some hope / there’s got to be a little time // everybody’s got something on their mind / everybody’s got a little hope that can be found // it seems to me / we’ve got something all our own / it seems to me / there’s nothing needed more

07. IN THE MORNING (2'35)

music & lyrics by TODD CORCORAN
in the morning / the sun was up / and the wind was still // that day i let it go / all the hate that seemed to flow through me // and now i can be / what i’ve known was meant for me all along // i’ve found my home / i’ve found my home / to think that all was nearly gone / i’m home

09. AND THEN YOU'RE GONE (2'45)

music & lyrics by TODD CORCORAN
somebody’s in your way / somebody says you’re wrong / one day you’re here / then you’re gone // and then you’re gone / round and round day after day / standing alone in the rain / you cry all night because you’re afraid / and then you’re gone / then you’re gone

10. WHEN I CLOSE MY EYES (4'09)

music & lyrics by TODD CORCORAN
when i close my eyes / there’s nothing i can’t see / all that’s been lost / all that can be // the days can be endless / the nights can be too / something’s happening / something’s going down / when i close my eyes // when i close my eyes / the darkness becomes lost / lost in good times / lost in good thoughts // if i fall / i’ll never have to cry / cause something’s happening / something’s going down / when i close my eyes / when i close my eyes

11. HAVE YOU EVER WISHED YOU WERE YOUNG AGAIN (4'01)

music & lyrics by TODD CORCORAN
have you ever wished you were young again / and thought about all the things you could do / would you try to be a better man / would you want to live by the sea // would i see anyone that’s gone / would i go back to the fields i fought on / no i couldn’t take it on i wouldn’t be that strong // but oh / if you could take all i’ve known / i’d be on my way / right now // have you ever wished you were young again / and thought about all the things you could do / would you travel far from everything / would you seek the finest things // would i feel the same things on and on / would i repeat all that went wrong / no i couldn’t take it on / i wouldn’t be that strong // but oh / if you could take all i’ve known / i’d be on my way / right now
