We've only just begun to live,
White lace and promises A kiss for luck and we're on our way. We've only begun. Before the rising sun we fly, So many roads to choose We start our walking and learn to run. And yes, We've just begun. * Sharing horizons that are new to us, Watching the signs along the way, Talking it over just the two of us, Working together day to day Together. And when the evening comes we smile, So much of life ahead We'll find a place where there's room to grow, And yes, We've just begun. * repeat |

I'll say goodbye to love
No one ever cared If I should live or die Time and time again the change for love has passed me by And all I know of love is how to live without it I just can't seem to find it So I've my mind up i must live my life alone And though it's not the easy way I guess I've always know I'd say goodbye to love There are no tomorrows for this heart of mine Surely time will lose these bitter memories And I'll find that there is someone to believe in And to live for something I could live for All the years of useless search finally reached an end Loneliness and empty days will be my only friend From this day love is forgotten I'll go on as best I can What lies in the future is a mystery to us all No one can predict the whee l of fortune as it falls There may come a time when i will see that I've been wrong But for now this is my song And it's goodbye to love I'll say goodbye to love |

Such a feeling's coming over me
There is wonder in most everything I see Not a cloud in the sky Got the sun in my eyes And I won't be surprised if it's a dream Everything I want the world to be is now coming true especially for me And the reason is clear It's because you are here You're the nearest thing to heaven that I've seen I'm on the top of the world looking down on creation And the only explanation I can find Is the love that I've found ever since you've been around Your love's put me at the top of the world Something in the wind has learned my name And it's telling me that things are not the same In the leaves on the trees and the touch of the breeze Is a pleasing sense of happiness for me There is only one wish on my mind When this day is through I hope that I will find That tomorrow will be just the same for you and me All I need will be mine if you are here |

Day after day
I must face a world of strangers Where I don't belong I'm not that strong It's nice to know that there's someone I can turn to Who will always care you're always there when there's no getting over that rainbow When my smallest of dreams won't come true I can take all the madness the world has to give But I won't last a day without you So many times when the city seems to be Without a friendly face a lonely place It's nice to know that you'll be there if I need you And you'll always smile it's all worthwhile when there's no getting over that rainbow When my smallest of dreams won't come true I can take all the madness the world has to give But I won't last a day without you Touch me and I end up singing Trouble seems to up and disappear You touch me with the love you're bringing I can't really lose when you're near When you're near my love If all my friends have forgotten half their promises they're not unkind just hard to find One look at you and I know That I could learn to live without the rest I've found the best when there's no getting over that rainbow When my smallest of dreams won't come true I can take all the madness the world has to give But I won't last a day without you when there's no getting over that rainbow When my smallest of dreams won't come true I can take all the madness the world has to give But I won't last a day without you But I won't last a day without you without you |

When I was young
I'd listen to the radio Waitin for my favorite songs When they played I'd sing along It made me smile Those were such happy times And not so long ago How I wondered where they'd gone But they're back again Just like a long lost friend All the songs I loved so well Every Sha la la la Every Woo woo Still shines Every shing a ling a ling That they're startin to sing's So fine When they get to the part Where he's breakin her heart It can really make me cry Just like before It's yesterday once more Lookin back on how it was In years gone by And the good times that I had Makes today seem rather sad So much has changed It was songs of love that I would sing to then And I'd memorize each word Those old melodies Still sound so good to me As they melt the years away Every Sha la la la Every Woo woo Still shines Every shing a ling a ling That they're startin to sing's So fine All my best memories Come back clearly to me Some can even make me cry Just like before It's yesterday once more Every Sha la la la Every Woo woo Still shines Every shing a ling a ling That they're startin to sing's So fine Every Sha la la la Every Woo woo Still shines Every shing a ling a ling |

Are we really happy
with this lonely game we play Looking for the right words to say Searching but not finding understanding anyway We're lost in this masquerade Both are afraid to say we're just too far away From being close together from the start We try to talk it over but the words got in the way We're lost inside this lonely game we play Thoughts of leaving disappear eachtime I see your eyes And no matter how hard I try to understand the reason why we carry on this way We're lost in this masquerade We try to talk it over but the words got in the way We're lost inside this lonely game we play Thoughts of leaving disappear eachtime I see your eyes And no matter how hard I try to understand the reason why we carry on this way We're lost in the masquerade We're lost in the masquerade (We're lost in the masquerade) |

Desperado
Why don't you come to your senses You been out riding fences For so long now Oh you're a hard one But I know that you've got your reasons These things that are pleasing you Can hurt you somehow Don't you draw the queen of diamonds boy She'll beat you If she's able The queen of hearts Is always your best bet Now it seems to me some fine things Have been laid upon your table But you only want the ones That you can't get Desperado Oh you ain't gettin' no younger You pain and your hunger They're driving you home Freedom Ah freedom That's just some people talking You're prisoners walking Through this world all alone Don't your feet get cold in the wintertime The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine It's hard to tell the night time From the day You're losing all your highs and lows Ain't it funny how the feeling goes away Desperado Why don't you come to your senses Come down from your fences And open the gate It may be raining But there's a rainbow above you You better let somebody love you You better let somebody love you Before it's too late |

After long enough of being alone
Everyone must face their share of loneliness in my own time nobody knew The pain I was goin through And waitin was all my heart could do Hope was all I had until you came Maybe you can't see how much you mean to me You were the dawn breaking the night The promise of morning light Filing the world surrounding me When I hold you Baby Baby Feels like maybe things will be all right Baby Baby Your love's made me Free as a song singin forever Only yesterday when I was sad And I was lonely You showed me the way to leave The past and all its tears behind me Tomorrow may be even brighter than today Since I threw my sadness away Only Yesterday I have found my home here in your arms Nowhere else on earth I'd really rather be Life waits for us Share it with me The best is about to be So much is left for us to see When I hold you Baby Baby Feels like maybe things will be all right Baby Baby Your love's made me Free as a song singin forever Only yesterday when I was sad And I was lonely You showed me the way to leave The past and all its tears behind me Tomorrow may be even brighter than today Since I threw my sadness away Only Yesterday Only Yesterday Only Yesterday Only yesterday when I was sad And I was lonely You showed me the way to leave The past and all its tears behind me Tomorrow may be even brighter than today Since I threw my sadness away Only Yesterday |

There was a man
A lonely man Who lost his love Through his indifference A heart that cared That went unshared Until it died Within his silence And solitaire's the only game in town And every road that takes him takes him down And by himself it's easy to pretend He'll never love again And keeping to himself He plays the game Without her love It always ends the same While life goes on around him everywhere He's playing solitaire A little hope Goes up in smoke Just how it goes Goes without saying There was a man A lonely man Who would command The hand he's playing And solitaire's the only game in town And every road that takes him takes him down And by himself it's easy to pretend He'll never love again And keeping to himself He plays the game Without her love It always ends the same While life goes on around him everywhere He's playing solitaire And solitaire's the only game in town And every road that takes him takes him down While life goes on around him everywhere He's playing solitaire |

There's a kind of hush
all over the world tonight All over the world you can hear the sounds of lovers in love You know what I mean Just the two of us and nobody else in sight There's nobody else and I'm feeling good just holding you tight So listen very carefully Closer now and you will see what I mean It isn't a dream The only sound that you will hear Is when I whisper in your ear I love you forever and ever There's a kind of hush all over the world tonight All over the world people just like us are fallin' in love So listen very carefully Closer now and you will see what I mean It isn't a dream The only sound that you will hear Is when I whisper in your ear I love you forever and ever There's a kind of hush all over the world tonight All over the world you can hear the sounds of lovers in love |

The hardest thing I've ever done
is keep believing There's someone in this crazy world for me The way that people come and go through temporary lives My chance could come and I might never know I used to say No promises let's keep it simple But freedom only helps you say goodbye It took awhile for me to learn that nothing comes for free The price I've paid is high enough for me I know I need to be in love I know I've wasted too much time I know I ask perfection of a quite imperfect world And fool enough to think that's what I'll find So here I am with pockets full of good intentions But none of them will comfort me tonight I'm wide awake at 4 AM without a friend in sight Hanging on a hoop but I'm alright I know I need to be in love I know I've wasted too much time I know I ask perfection of a quite imperfect world And fool enough to think that's what I'll find I know I need to be in love I know I've wasted too much time I know I ask perfection of a quite imperfect world And fool enough to think that's what I'll find |

Looking at you
I'm almost home again Something in you Puts me at ease Yes, I know that you're Suspicious of me Do I mean the things I say? Yo know I've been in love before That much is true But thought I've been in love before It wasn't with you ( ) Ooh, Sandy Could we spend the day together? You know how rainy weather Gets me down when I'm alone You, Sandy You gotta be a friend today An hour with you would Chase the winter away Being with you I'm like a child again Your eyes can see Clearer than mine No one ever made me quite so aware No one ever took the time The time it took surprises me Nothing's the same As if my life began again Hearing your name An hour with you would Chase the winter away |

Like sailin on a sailin ship to nowhere
Love took over my heart like an ocean breeze As seagulls fly I knew that I was losin Love was washed away with the driftin tide Oh its a dirty old shame When all you get from love is a love song Thats got you layin up nights Just waitin for the music to start Its such a dirty old shame When you got to take the blame for a love song Because the best love songs are written With a broken heart And now the tears in my eyes are ever blinding The future that lies before me I cannot see Although tomorrow I know the sun is rising Lighting up the world for everyone, but not for me Oh its a dirty old shame When all you get from love is a love song Thats got you layin up nights Just waitin for the music to start Its such a dirty old shame When you got to take the blame for a love song Because the best love songs are written With a broken heart (repeat) Well its a dirty old shame (repeat) |

Where's the word for the sadness
Where's the poetry in the pain Where's the color in the stain where the tears have fallen It's gone, it's just gone Where's the method to this madness As we create this suffering And we do each other in and we still hold on But it's gone, it's just gone (*) He says it's gone And he can't go on a living a memory Mulling it over endlessly Why is that so hard for me to see He says it's gone And he can't go on trying to live a lie And when he cries, I know it's over But I may never know why There's no face in the locket There's no place for the past I'll put it back in my pocket It was never meant to last It's just gone Repeat (*) There's no word for the sadness There's no poetry in the pain There's no color in the stain where the tears have fallen It's gone, it's just gone It's gone, it's just gone Well, it's gone |

As a child I was known for make-believing
All alone I created fantasies As I grew people called it self-deceiving But my heart helped me hold the memories As I walk through the world I find around me Something new, yet familiar's in the air I feel it ev'rywhere Like a child's eyes On a Christmas night I'm lookin' at you now Finding answers to my prayers (*) It's a new day for those good old dreams One by one it seems they're comin' true Here's the morning that my heart had seen Here's the morning that just had to come through Same old stage but what a change of scene No more dark horizons, only blue It's a new day for those good old dreams All my life I dreamed of lovin' you You're a spark of a long forgotten fire You're a touch of a slowly growing wind You're a taste of the ever-changing seasons Telling me there are some things that don't end We have left all the darkness far behind us All those hopes that we held along the way Have made it to this day Like an old love song Gone for much too long You hear it once again Ant it carries you away Repeat (*) It's a new day for those good old dreams And It's all because of you |

Tell me where do I go from here? You said you'd take me through the years So where do I go from here?

Now, now when I wake, I don't feel cold
Now that I have your hand to hold The winds might blow through me But I don't care There's no harm in thunder if you are there And now, now when we touch My feelings slide Now when I'm smiling, I know why You light up my world like the morning sun You're so deep within me we're almost one And now all the feelings that I have start to fade I was always afraid life might forget me Love might let me down Then look who I found (The winds might blow through me, but I don't care There's no harm in thunder if you are there) And now, now when I wake, there's someone home I'll never face the night alone You gave me the courage I need to win To open my heart and to let you in And I never really knew how until now Until now No, I never really knew how until now |
