Place Called Houston Lyrics

It's a long way back from nothing
But that's just where we're coming from
A place called Houston on the map
I can remember when
He picked us up just like water
You have to keep on drinking to go on living
To keep on living
Sometimes I wasn't thirsty at all

The day you realize that you already have
Everything that you ever wanted, you'll know

If a man can love enough h
He can save a million lives
And maybe his own
If a man can love enough
To give up his whole world
What he will receive in return
Will be so much more

Some lessons must be taught
With the blood and sweat of other men
And now that I have seen
The fight that you've fought
It's my day to be that man
And I hope I may fight this as well

There are at least two bands named Waxwing.

1. In 1996, Rocky Votolato (singer/guitarist), along with friends Rudy Gajadhar (drums) and Andrew Hartley (bass), started playing under the name Waxwing. Rocky's younger brother Cody (The Blood Brothers) soon joined the band on second guitar, and the band recorded their debut 7" for Henry's Finest Recordings. In 1999, Second Nature Recordings released their first full-length, entitled 'For Madmen Only'. Blending straight-up rock with elements of post-hardcore, and Cody's metal reminiscent guitaring, Waxwing soon established a strong local following. It was a feat built upon with their two succeeding albums 'One For the Ride' (2000) and 'Nobody Can Take What Everybody Owns' (2002).

2. Waxwing was a heavy metal band that released an EP called "Appetizer" in 1988. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
