A Spark To Start

The best advice to give you measured pound for pound
Is to take the freeway straight, avoid the round and round
The best advice to give you really pound for pound
Is to take the freeway straight, avoid the round and round
And if you get into your car and get a spark to start
Gotta put it into gear because it's time to depart
You take control of the wheel and drive it round the bend
Then you get acceleration as you start to ascend
And if you see a warning sign as you're driving the road
That says the going gets steep, you'd better lighten your load
Cause then the engine starts humming likes it's gonna explode
All your gauges start flashing cause you're on overload
You want to beg your lucky charms but there's no time my friend
And just when you are thinking this is how it will end
You find yourself shooting up there into the night
Your instinct tells you, "Grab the wheel and hold on tight"
You ratchet up a notch to break the speed of sound
But are you sure it makes a sound if there is no one around?
You ratchet up a notch to break the speed of sound
But are you sure it makes a sound if there is no one around?
And if you see a warning sign as you're driving the road
That says the going gets steep, you'd better lighten your load
And when your engine starts shaking likes it's going to explode
All your instruments are flashing cause you're on overload
You find yourself soaring up there into the night
Your impulse is to grab the wheel and hold on tight
But now you know it isn't you who's really flying the kite
Your thrusters engage and shoot you outta sight
And as you wonder what it is that makes the stars so bright
You finally get to travel at the speed of light
And I'll see you on the other side of life

Sugar Rush

I'm in love with this brilliant little girl
If you asked me then I couldn't say why
I'm in love with this sugar rush girl
If you asked me then I couldn't say why
There's something in the way that she walks
And she's talking in a way that's brand new to me
Maybe you would think that she's crazy but
She wouldn't be her any other way
I'm in love with my cotton candy girl
If you asked me then I wouldn't deny
I'm in love with this ice cream girl
If you asked me then I couldn't deny
I love the way she dances in circles
And the songs she sings to pick out which clothes to wear
Baby, you would think that I'm crazy but
Aren't the best a little wild anyway?
That's why I'm so glad
I've got this ice cream
Flowing through my blood stream
Doesn't stop at nothing
Taking care of everything
I've got this sugar cane
Rushing through my blood veins
Doesn't stop at nothing
Taking care of everything

Dreaming

I watched an angel walk out of my life
She went slow
She didn't want to go
Love had held out her hand
Sweetly beckoning to me
Doubt came from behind
And knocked her down
There's some part of me
That is gone
That's been torn
Searching for what I should do
Was I dreaming of you?
I've been spending my time contemplating
Searching around in my mind
For the needle I feared that I would find
I was doubting my love for her
Didn't understand why
I was doubting my love for her
Didn't understand why
I realized the truth
When I finally knew
The reason I do what I do
It's the promise of you
Now I'm with you
All my concerns melt
And I'm conscious of you
I know nothing else
Now I'm with you
So I let an angel
Now I'm with you
Walk out of my life
Now I'm with you
I didn't know but I hoped
Now I'm with you
That I would be meeting up with you
Now I'm with you
Now I'm with you
Now I'm with you
So I let an angel
Now I'm with you
Walk out of my life
Now I'm with you
I didn't know but I hoped
Now I'm with you
That I would be meeting up with you
Now I'm with you
Meeting up with you
Meeting up with you

The Lucky Ones

I know a place where we can go
I know a place where nobody's home
I know a place where we can be all alone
I know a place we'll steal away
I know a place at the end of the day
I know a place I tell you it's the only way
And if you go there we'll meet at dawn
And if you go there we'll be the only ones
And if you go there we'll see the rising face of the sun
And the two of us will be as one
I know a place where it's light as sky
I know a place where gravity does not apply
I know a place where both of us can learn to fly high
I know a place we'll steal away
I know a place at the end of the day
I know a place I tell you it's the only way
And if you go there we'll meet at dawn
And if you go there we'll be the only ones
And if you go there we'll greet the shining face of the sun
And won't we be the lucky ones?
And if you go there we'll meet at dawn
And if you go there we'll be the only ones
And if you go there we'll greet the shining face of the sun
And won't we be the lucky ones?

Reasons

I don't mind talking
I don't mind thinking
Don't mind reasoning as well
But when you go talking about reasons
And when all the reasons are for leaving
I don't believe that you're thinking
Of what is good as well
We help each other through the hard times
When we lack confidence we bolster each other
When things get crazy we work it out in the end
And aren't the crazy things what keep us sane anyway
I wish that you could
Stop dwelling on our failings
And start thinking of what is good
Because baby what we've got is worth saving
And you know you should
And you know you should
Stop dwelling on our failings
And start thinking of what is good
Because baby what we've got is worth saving
And you know you should
And you know you should
And you know you should
And you know you should now

Going back home
Been away so long
Don't know who I'll see there
But I know I wanna be there
Going back home
Of all the places I've been
Nothing compares to
My England dream of
Standing upon Richmond Hill
You can see the skies above you
River flows along below you
You can feel the music ringing
Colors blue and green are singing
Going back home
Of all the places I've been
Oh haven't you seen
My heimat dream
Going back home
When I need to be there
Hoping that I see you
And you know we're gonna meet where?
Standing upon Richmond Hill
You can see the skies above you
River flows along below you
You can see the music ringing
Colors blue and green are singing
And when I can't make it back
I can close my eyes and dream
Pretty soon I drift away
And once in awhile it seems like I'm
Standing upon Richmond Hill
You can see the music ringing
Colors blue and green are singing
Skies are shining up above you
Rivers dancing down below you

End of the Day

There are so many things to say
And also tragic things to tell
Let's remember all the good
But some of the bad as well
Now it's the end of the day
And at the end of the day
It's on the company's bill
So we won't have to pay
At the end of the day
It's at the end of the day
It's on the company's bill
So we won't have to pay
And now I fly
But how can I?
You only reach so high
Try and touch the sky
Before you come back down
I fly
But how can I?
You only reach so high
Try and touch the sky
Before you come back down
There are so many things to say
And there are tragic things to tell
Let's remember all the good
But some of the bad as well
Now it's the end of the day
And at the end of the day
It's on the company's bill
So I won't have to pay
At the end of the day
At the end of the day
It's on the company's bill
So we won't have to pay

You are sun
You are moon
You are far
You are my star
If you and I warped space and time
I could be back home in no time
You are sun
You are my killing moon
You are far
You are my star
My star
My star

Late Arrivals Salt Lake City, Utah
In 1999, Later Rivals was poised to unleash their debut album "A Spark To Start," a sonic prophecy. Then their enigmatic
band manager lured the band into cryogenic chambers, all in the name of safeguarding them from impending Y2K doom.
Fast forward 24 years. The timeless tunes had retained their melodic power. However, they embraced a subtle alteration, rechristening themselves Late Arrivals.
