LOVE (it's gonna find you)
Love
Oh it's a four letter word
It'll knock you around drag you down
But then it's the sweetest sound you've heard
Love
Yeah Love....
Well it'll take you to the limit
Lift you up when you feel down
And then slap your face to the ground
Love
Yeah Love....
Well there's not much you can do
You might as well open your heart
Cuz sooner or later love's gonna find you
Love, Yeah love
Love, Yeah love
It's gonna find you...
Love
Oh it's a mystery to us all
Rain or shine it's around us all the time
And you feel you got something to prove (with nothin' to lose)
Well there's not much you can do
You might as well open your heart
Cuz sooner or later love's gonna find you
Love, Yeah love
Love, Yeah love
It's gonna find you... (whatcha you gonna do?)
Love
Go on and say it
Love
No matter how you play it
Love
Needs no inspiration
Love
Yeah Love
It's gonna find you.

Follow Me
YA!
Follow me into the wilds of tomorrow
Lay your troubles down
We can leave right away
Will you take the lead
Or stumble n' fall
I can see the path it leads straight away
(Bridge)
But I can't hold your hand if you don't want me too
I can say a prayer for your soul
We can steal away for just a moment in time
Follow my lead and I'll take you home
(Chorus)
YA! YA! YA! YA!
O Follow me into the wilds of tomorrow
Lay your troubles down we can leave right away
Will you take the lead, or stumble or fall
I can see the path it's not so far away
And tomorrow when the sun rises
We both can be far far from home
Two lovers at best and friends for a life time
Take a chance on me, go on and prove me wrong
(Bridge)
But I can't hold your hand if you don't want me too
I can say a prayer for your soul
We can steal away for just a moment in time
Follow my lead and I'll take you home
(to chorus)
Follow me
go on now
Follow me
I'll bring you home
Follow me
Follow me
Follow me YA! o BABY follow me....

Down and Out
I've been walking the wild side of these mean streets
Trying to leave my mark
Cut to the chase they said I'd never make it
Son "Don't even try to start"
Well I ignored all the words they said
Figured I'm old enough to make my own bed
Now I'm not alone and look at the price I paid
Chorus
For walking the mean streets
I'm still standing tall
I'm still walking these mean streets
And your never gonna see me fall (AT ALL!)
Well I've been down and out damn near broke
Just trying to cut my own path
Take it the limit come on make or break me
Cuz ya know I'm gonna last
Well I cut to the chase
Tomorrow is just another day
Take a look this is what I have to say (to chorus)
Well I ignored all the words they said
Figured I'm old enough to make my own bed
Now I'm not alone and look at the price I paid
Well I've been down and out damn near broke
Just trying to cut my own path
Take it the limit come on make or break me
Cuz ya know I'm gonna last (to chorus)

FIND YOU OWN WAY HOME by REO SPEEDWAGON
A review of REO SPEEDWAGON'S new CD.
"FIND YOUR OWN WAY HOME".
After nearly 20 years REO SPEEDWAGON is back on the charts with their first studio album in 11 years. The genesis for the album began a couple of years ago when the band played a new song while on out on tour. The new song titled "EVERYTHING YOU FEEL" ignited a plethora of creative energy in the band and gave birth to the completion of 10 new tracks on the self released album titled FIND YOUR OWN WAY HOME. The bands 15th original studio release.
The album is REO through and through. A rock sold mix of hard rocking songs sprinkled with some of the softer touches REO is famous for. Leave no doubt. This album is one of the best the band has ever done and it is obvious the band it proud of it as well. And they damn well should be. It is every bit as potent as the classic multi platinum release Hi Infidelity from 1980 and shows REO is still capable of going full tilt in the studio.
The first song. SMILING IN THE END is a powerful crank up the volume rocker that not only holds its own musically but lyrically as well. IT ROCKS!
The second track, and title track for the album, FIND YOUR OWN WAY HOME also delves into strong lyrical heights. Definite single material!
The third song I NEEDED TO FALL slows the pace down a bit but don't let that fool you. It stands up musically with the best of them.
DANGEROUS COMBINATION is the 4th song and it has a near country feel to it. Lead singer and frontman Kevin Cronin teamed up with his good friend Jim Peterik from Survivor to pen this gem
LOST ON THE ROAD TO LOVE is the 5th song and this baby make you want to sing along with it. Upbeat and driven this song delivers more than you expect!
Track six, ANOTHER LIFETIME, is without a doubt one of my favorite songs on the album and one of my favorites from REO ever. Another definite sing along song.
RUN AWAY BABY takes the album's 7th slot and packs a somewhat surprising JAZZ type fell to it yet maintains that distinguished REO feel and sound at the same time.
The eighth track, EVERYTHING YOU FEEL is a rock solid old school REO anthem that will blister your eardrums. Quite possibly the best song on the album as well and the genesis for the new album.
BORN TO LOVE YOU takes the 9th slot and was written by REO bass player Bruce hall who also sings the song as well. This song ooozes class and has a very distinct sound with a heavy bass. For the first time ever on a REO song a clarinet is used. Played by none other that Bruce Hall's father BILL HALL. A first for both the instrument and someone from one of the bands family members to play on an REO album.The last song ends the CD with a great power ballad.
LET MY LOVE FIND YOU is a definite tear jerker but don't let that fool you. The song has class and the chops to be solid hit.
REO teamed up with legendary music producer Joe Vannelli from Blue Moon Studios and the results speak for themselves. While REO has maintained one of the strongest touring schedules over the years is a great feeling to see them back in action with new material and new CD. You can listen to samples of the songs on REO's WEBSITE at www.speedwagon.com You can also purchase the CD directly from the website or at most major record stores and WALMART.
Without a doubt this album ranks a 10 out 10 and is a must have in your collection. You simply will not be disappointed. One thing is for sure REO Speedwagon doesn't need to find their way home. But their album needs to find its way into yours.

I Remember
I remember the first time
I remember the last time
There's part of me that doesn't want to remember the past
And how can I say I sorry
When those words just don't feel right
How can I take the blame
When I didn't start the fight (cuz I remember)
Should I stay
Or should I go (I remember)
Those questions I don't want to face
I just want to feel.... your embrace, (your embrace)
I remember the long goodbye
I remember the first hello
And yet part of me doesn't want to remember anything at all
And how can I face tomorrow
When yesterday is still far behind
How can face the sorrow
When it was you who walked out of my life
And yesterdays turn to tomorrows
O the road of love can be unkind
Follow me we'll cut to the truth
Though the truth will cut us to the bone
I remember the first time
I remember the last time
There's part of me that doesn't want to remember the past
(and I)
I remember the long goodbye
I remember the first hello
And yet part of me doesn't want to remember anything at all
and part of me doesn't want to remember it all (all, all, all)
But.. should I stay
Or should I go
The questions I don't want to face
I just want to feel.... your embrace.
your embrace (I remember)
your embrace (yeah)
your embrace (I remember)
O I remember... Your embrace
