I'm crying
From deep in my soul to the core of my heart I'm crying And I'm crying For the door to close so I can make a new start I'm crying I'm trying To understand it all, how I missed the call I'm trying And I'm dying From the pain inside and all the tears I've cried I'm dying I wanna hold you again 'till the nightmare ends Let our love wash away the lost years I wanna kiss you again, I wanna kill the pain And swim in the flood of our tears But I can't do that now because You're far away from me I let you go somehow and now It's much too late to see the light One mistake, is that all it takes To erase the love of my life Seems insane that one moment's shame Can wipe out all that I've done right And I tried, how I tried Still our love found a place to hide And I've tried, God knows I've tried Still our love left and died |

Images of Nikki Lynn came drifting
Through my head this morning Long forgotten memories from oh, so long ago And it made me start to wonder Why it is this often happens And why we have a problem Sometimes simply letting go What value lies within the past What use is waiting there? Why spend so much time wondering When perhaps I shouldn't care? Do the lessons of our past mistakes Really make the future brighter? Is it something I should dwell upon Is it something I should share? Why can't I let go Why can't I let go I will let go I will let go I will let go I will let go? ooh We all have things that we're convinced We can't live without Joined at the hip to a sinking ship Surrounded by a sea of doubt Our reach should be bigger Than our grip on temporary satisfaction Make the finite infinite, the past behind us Lessons learned, a course of action Now I must let go Now I must let go |

I was downtown drinking with the boys
All of a sudden coming out of the noise One of my so-called friends About ruined the night He told me you've been seen around Told me you've been playing the town Seemingly without respect For the fact that you're mine If you think you're coming back to me You're adding insult to injury You better try your luck some other day When you can give me a reason, give me a reason Give me a reason - a reason to stay Give me a reason to stay The more I realise the more it hurts You're out there acting like some smalltown flirt Telling me you're spending your nights Dreaming of me You're asking me to overlook Asking me to let you off the hook Well obviously that's not the way it's gonna be You're so busy making up my mind I'm gonna do it in my own sweet time Come back baby when you've got Something better to say |

Don't try to control me
Don't try to console me Don't bother to write or call 'Cause I've heard it all before You had me fooled for a short time With your empty words and your fine lines But it ain't happening anymore 'Cause I know who you are You said you'd help me to turn my life around All you did was to turn it upside down I can't believe that I gave you so much trust Now you're trying to turn my rock to dust People saying I should've seen the sign You think that playing with lives is not a crime No matter how hard you try, I will survive 'Cause the moment of truth has just arrived |

No matter where you are
You'll hear my voice calling out to you What else can I do When my heart is beating slightly out of tune You will know the sound The voice of love so pure and crystal clear Trying to let you know that I've seen enough of living without you here Somewhere in my heart a fire is burning And the flame will never die While I watch the wheel of fortune turning And the long nights passing by Ain't it funny how the time seems to go so slow When you're looking through a crystal ball And I have to rely on the voice of love And hope you hear my call So long ago, so far away So strong was the love that we shared And now I find myself standing here Seeing just how much I cared 'Cause your love is the only love I'll ever want or need So listen to the voice of love, listen to my plea The voice of love |

Who knows who's to blame for it
Who knows who will pay for it And who knows how it came to be In whose name and by what decree Is there something out there Bigger than you and me Is there someone somewhere That we can't see who knows Do you know what you're doing here What did you see in your father's tears Anything to show for all these years Can you really hear a thing through the endless cheer There is something out there Bigger than you and me There is someone quite near That we can see Maybe I shouldn't think so much Maybe I shouldn't care Maybe I'm a little out of touch Who knows, who cares Who knows what's in store for us Who decides peace or war for us When god wants so much more for us You decide who you're gonna trust You wanna know who this hombre is You wanna live in the light You wanna feel the spirit's kiss Even though you tried to take his life Who knows? God knows |

You are my life, you are my love
You're the heart that beats within me You're the one I'll never leave You're what makes my life worth living And if the worst should come And we must move to a different drum We'll take it anyway 'Cause no matter what they say We'll be dancing with the wind Dancing with the rain Dancin' to the beat of my heart Dancin' to the melody Ringin' in my head Nothing's gonna keep us apart You are the sun, you are the moon You are my imagination We're gonna win, we just can't lose Not with all this inspiration They can try and take our stuff But they can't touch this special love We're together come what may And no matter what they say |

On Christmas Day we celebrate
That Jesus Christ was born Our lives are filled with special things We dance from dusk to dawn But did you know he also died for you Did you know he paid a price for you Do you know him as the greatest gift of all We remind ourselves of fairy tales A reindeer on a ride And we wrap the toys with love and care Preparing for that special night But did you know that Jesus died for you Did you know he paid a price for you Do you know him as the greatest gift of all And did you know that everyone Will meet him in the end Did you know he really loves you And he wants to be your friend Did you know that a simple prayer Will bring you all his love Did you know? Did you know? So Christmas comes and Christmas goes But Christ himself will stay If you let him live inside your heart It's Christmas every day For he came to earth to die for you He came to pay a price for you Do you know him as the greatest gift of all |

Mysteries sometimes need
Special people to stop and read In between the written lines To find the meaning Inside the mystery Inside the mystery You and I, we take it slow Writing stories as we go Understanding what we see To the world it's hidden deep Inside the mystery To you and I everything is fine To the world it ain't so right, no no Bur who's to say who's right And who's wrong Let us move along tonight When you and I have travelled on to Greener pastures and clearer seas We will live in all their dreams Inside the mystery Maybe it's an illusion Or a masquerade Or it could be a decision That only you and I can make While jokers come in thousands And the actor hopes to deceive You and I have a paradise Right here inside the mystery To you and I everything is fine To the world it ain't so right Bur who's to say who's right And who's wrong Let us move along tonight When you and I have travelled on to Greener pastures and clearer seas We will live in all their dreams Inside the mystery Oh yeah, inside the mystery |

When will you rise
When will you rise again When will you rise And show me the way I need you now in my uncertainty I need your strength To face the new day Swept off my feet By life's sweet mystery Sometimes it's hard Just getting along I know you're there Why won't you come to me You know I'm lost without a song Dance with me, sweet inspiration Seems to me only you know how Dance with me, oh dance with me Share my fantasy just for now Inspiration's gonna rise again Gonna take me by surprise again You'll see the light in my eyes again Inspiration's gonna rise again |

Winter came today
And took the sun away Leaving me with nothing but The stars to play But I'm sure that I won't Let it bring me down The rough comes with the smooth But that's what life's about Working on the principle That you'll be here I can stand alone for quite a while I know I can learn to live The changes of the year Mellow in the river of your smile I know that the season's Queen Can hear me She's bringing longer shadows To the trees Perhaps she knows I'd love to have you near me So she tries her Very best to please Her best to please I suppose I'll always have These memories Till we are together once again Of the days which were So long and lonely Till the longer shadows And all the golden meadows Tell me that the time has come For us to live again |

What is this place I find myself in?
Where we're all supposed To think the same way All I see is patience growing thin While the people need someone With something to say In the garden of peace All around me is dying And the place where My love grew is empty At this moment in time How can truth be a crime I'll tell you if only you'll let me I'll let you into a secret of mine Like a delicate wine treat it gently By setting free All the love in your heart Life will become what it was Meant to be originally With this memorized Take your place by my side And we'll ponder The joys of tomorrow Only in love can we Live with our pride For in love lies No reason for sorrow |

Well I picked her up on the 44
One evening back in July She looked so pretty In the full moonlight That I just couldn't pass her by And we hadn't rolled But a mile or more Before the lady started Making her moves It was becoming steadily clearer That she was into a boogie groove Well she said she was hurtin' From too much flirtin' And I shouldn't get the wrong idea So I said what's a pretty girl like you Doin' in a place like here Well she got into a fix Lookin' for some kicks Her high ideals had been blown So I tried to be nice, I told her twice She was the prettiest girl in town And she said brown eyed boy Play me a rock 'n' roll tune And maybe there's a chance we can Dance by the light of the moon Yeah, brown eyed boy Won't you play me a rock 'n roll tune And maybe there's a chance we can Dance by the light of the moon |

When the leaving birds
Fill the stone grey sky And the green, green leaves Turn away and die And the once warm sun Has to run and hide And the Winter clouds Begin their stormy ride Cold black shadows cross my eyes And help to make me realize You've gone, oh Cold Autumn Sunday Still I walk alone The paths we shared And I try to recreate the love we had For you were my life And my heart is sad And it's strange how autumn Used to make me glad Only now an empty sky is there To let me know how much I care You've gone, oh Cold Autumn Sunday I'm near to dying No use denying that it's true Spend my whole time crying Finding ways of trying Not to be blue, oh, over you |

Woman you are a mystery to me
You're really not what I thought You would be from the start And I've tried just as hard As any man can But you never seem to Understand my heart Woman Lady we've been together For a good long time But every time I start to think You're all mine, you stand back I tried but I'm slowly Running out of ideas And my joy is quickly Turning to tears and that's a fact Woman, you gotta trust me If we're gonna stay in love Then you know Thats the way that it must be Won't you try a little harder To understand |

How well I remember the days
In the house on the hill With the cat, the raccoon and A fat lazy daydream to kill And the moon to sing me to sleep And the birds to open my eyes And the first thing I'd see Would be you And you made me happy I know I could love you If I knew that you wanted me to And the house on the hill And all of the things we could do How good it all is just to live And to need nothing more The way I feel now I don't know But I don't need to be sure 'Cause the sun that brought us together Will follow my dreaming forever And the first thing I'll see will be you And you make me happy |

At the break of day
When my dreams Have come and gone The memories will fade away But I wonder for how long Not too long For I know an evening comes And I hear the night-birds' tune I remember where it all begun As we danced beside the moon It's always on my mind But where did it come from Our love was the strongest kind So where can it have gone? Won't someone show me the way To turn my night into day Or throw a rope around the moon No, don't let it see me alone |

She sits so quietly
At the window by the door Wondering if she'll Ever smile again Her eyes filled with memories And her life in sad array Unaware of the colours of the day She dare not cry for fear Her hope might disappear But if she cared to try I know it all could be so clear But she's living in the past She didn't know it wouldn't last And it's a long, long, lonely road Oh, to go down The treasured names You call each other just for fun And as you woke She kissed your eyes You killed it all when it had Only just begun What's it take to make you realise Love isn't easy though Many like to think it is But you must learn To give and take or know What you will miss But she's living in the past She didn't know it wouldn't last And it's a long, long, lonely road Oh, to go down |

I once read a story
About a world full of love Of freedom and glory As seen through the eyes of a child We learned to believe That the earth was all Ocean and ground Though we were soon to see That there wasn't Enough to go 'round I saw words and wars Though my books had told me My life would be one long song Man make laws Although laws make man So uncertain So uncertain what's right And what's wrong Confused without reason Stumbling helplessly day by day It was all so deceiving For that child was me And I can't find the book anymore For that child was me And I can't find the book anymore |

Do you feel alright ...
One in the morning I'm always on the run And still it seems I never get far The road's never ending It looks like I've just begun And life's just a game and I'm playing my part When will I see you I'm longing to hold you Just the sound of your voice Will help me through |
