You like to dance and listen to the music I like to sing with the band You like your hands splashing in the ocean Well I like my feet on the sand Does anybody have it any better? Isn't it easy to see just how well we fit together?
When I start to sing the blues You pull out my dancing shoes Oh you could be so good for me You get brave when I get shy Just another reason why I think you could be so good for me So good
You like to drive like Mario Andretti I like it taking my time But let me say wherever you are going You know it suits me just fine Does anybody have it any better? Isn't it easy to see just how well we fit together?
When I start to sing the blues You pull out my dancing shoes I think you could be so good for me You get brave when I get shy Just another reaon why I think you could be so good for me So good.

Baby, baby I'm taken with a notion To love you with The sweetest of devotion
Baby, baby My tender love will flow from The blue sky to the deepest ocean
Stop for a minute Baby, I'm so glad you're mine Yeah, you're mine
Baby, baby The stars are shining for you And just like me I'm sure that they adore you
Baby, baby Go walkin' through the forest The birds above are singin' you a chorus

Sometimes we make it harder than it is We'll take a perfect night And fill it up with words we don't mean Dark sides best unseen And we wonder why we're feeling this way.
Sometimes I wonder if we really feel the same Why we can be unkind Questioning the strongest of hearts That's when we must start Believing in the one thing that has gotten us this far.
Chorus That's what love is for To help us through it That's what love is for Nothing else can do it. Melt our defenses Bring us back to our senses Give us strength to try once more Baby, that's what love is for.
Sometimes I see you And you don't know I am there And I'm washed away by emotions I hold deep down inside Getting stronger with time It's living through the fire And holding on we find
Chorus
Believing in the one thing That has gotten us this far That's what love is for To help us through it That's what love is for Nothing else can do it. Round off the edges Talk us down from the ledges Give us strength to try once more Baby, that's what love is for
That's what love is for. That's what love is for Melt our defenses Bring us back to our senses Give us strength to try once more Baby, that's what love is for. That's what love is for. That's what love is for. That's what love is for.
I see her as a little girl hiding in her room She takes another bath and she sprays her momma's perfume To try to wipe away the scent he left behind But it haunts her mind.
You see she's his little rag, nothing more than just a waif And he's mopping up his need, she is tired and afraid Maybe she'll find a way through these awful years to disappear.
Ask me if I think there's a God up in the heaven Where did He go in the middle of her shame? Ask me if I think there's a God up in the heavens I see no mercy and no one down here's naming names Nobody's naming names.
Now she's looking in the mirror at a lovely woman face No more frightened little girl, like she's gone without a trace Still she leaves the light burning in the hall It's hard to sleep at all.
Still she crawls up in her bed acting quiet as a mouse Deep inside she's listening for a creaking in the house But noone's left to harm her, she's finally safe and sound There's a peace she's found.
Ask her how she knows there's a God up in the heaven Where did He go in the middle of her shame? Ask her how she knows there's a God up in the heavens She said His mercy is bringing her life again.
Ask me how I know there's a God up in the heaven (How do you know?) Where did He go in the middle of her shame (Where did He go?) Ask me how I know there's a God up in the heavens (How do you know?) She said his mercy is bringing her life again She's coming to life again.
He's in the middle of her pain In the middle of her shame Mercy brings life He's in the middle Mercy in the middle.
So ask me how I know Ask me how I know, yeah Ask me how I know there's a God up in the heaven (How do you know?) Ask me how I know there's a God up in the heavens (How do you know?) Yeah, ask me how I know (How do you know?) Ask me Ask me Ask me how I know (How do you know?) There's a God up in the heavens Ask me how I know there's a God up in the heavens.
In the year of 1492 When Colombus sailed the ocean blue Had he landed on India shore You may never have come to knock on my door
CHORUS: Who needs a rhyme or a reason Some dreams were made to find So I know that I must follow Ask me just how much I love you You are starlight, I'm Galileo Even on the darkest night Oh, I will find the shining light of our love
Through the rain clouds, thundering nights Mr. Franklin stood there holding his kite He was crazy, always pressing his luck But he got what he wanted when lightning struck
*CHORUS X2
BRIDGE: I believe in you In the special love we could share And baby one day darlin you'll turn around And all I really know is I will be there

Ask me just how much I love you (of our love) I'm Galileo
I saw you walking by yourself Your eyes were crying out for help I know you feel your pain is more Than anyones been hurt before I know love hurts when its over If you wanna cry it's alright You're like a fallen soldier But you just can't lay down and die
You've got to remember you're not alone in this world Always remember you're not alone in this world
The moment that I looked at you I recognized the killing truth You really think there's no way out But if you let me, I can help you now Through all these shattered emotions There's a lesson to learn So come on let me hold you closer Love can soothe what love has burned
You've got to remember you're not alone in this world Always remember you're not alone in this world You've got to remember never alone, never alone, never, never alone
I got to tell you baby Through all these shattered emotions There's a lesson to learn So come on let me hold you closer Love can soothe what love has burned
You've got to remember you're not alone in this world Always remember you're not alone in this world
You've got to remember (got to remember) you're not alone in this world Always remember (Always remember) you're not alone in this world You've got to remember (got to remember) you're not alone in this world Always remember (Always remember) you're not alone in this world
Sun comes up Breakfast show Can't you see me runnin' It's crazy don't you know
The moon is high I'm workin' through the night Will somebody tell me Where do all the hours go (I don't know)
Well it don't stop, no it's never gonna stop Why do I have to wear So many things on my head
(Hats) One day I'm a mother One day I'm a lover What am I supposed to do (Hats) Workin' for a livin' All because I'm driven To be the very best for you
The water is hot (so hot) The phone don't stop So how do I manage to hold on to my sanity (I don't know baby I don't know)
My red dress on Time for havin' fun (time for havin' fun) But can I really be the girl you think you see in me
The spirit is willing But the flesh is weak Why do I have to wear So many things on my head
(Hats) One day I'm a mother One day I'm a lover What am I supposed to do (Hats) Workin' for a livin' All because I'm driven To be the very best for you (Hats) One day I'm a mother One day I'm a lover What am I supposed to do (Hats) Workin' for a livin' All because I'm driven To be the very best for you
This may be a dream come true This may be poetry in motion This may be a dream come true But when it all comes down It's an awful lot to take
It don't stop, no it's never gonna stop Why do I have to wear Things on my head
(Hats) One day I'm a mother One day I'm a lover What am I supposed to do (Hats) Workin' for a livin' All because I'm driven To be the very best for you (Hats) One day I'm a mother One day I'm a lover What am I supposed to do (Hats) Workin' for a livin' All because I'm driven To be the very best, very best

I will be walking one day Down a street far away And see a face in the crowd and smile Knowing how you made me laugh Hearing sweet echoes of you from the past I will remember you.
Look into my eyes while you're near Tell me what's happening here See that I don't want to say good-bye Our love is frozen in time I'll be your champion and you will be mine I will remember you.
Later on When this fire is an ember Later on When the nights not so tender Given time Though it's hard to remember darlin' I will be holding I'll still be holding to you I will remember you.
So many years come and gone And yet the memory is strong One word we never could learn Good-bye True love is frozen in time I'll be your champion and you will be mine I will remember you So please remember I will remember you I will remember you I will remember you I will remember you
we said our promises by candle light you held my hands i was dressed in white we were young how can we see that far? i knew i wanted you like no one else i told my momma that i found myself in your eyes how can we see that far? how can we see that far? but like you daddy said the same sun that melts the wax can harden clay and the same rain that drowns the rat will grow the hay and the mighty wind that knocks us down if we lean into it will drive our fears away and then i woke you in the dead of night to hold my hands push away the fright life had come how can we see that far? how can we see that far? yeah, we were nervous and a little scared until the music of our baby's cry filled the air how can we see that far? how can we see that far? but like your daddy said the same sun that melts the wax can harden clay and the same rain that drowns the rat will grow the hay and the might wind that knocks us down if we lean into will drive our fears away we might die we might live we could hurt each other badly do things, things so hard to forgive ooh, and if time is not our friend your mind might forget me before the end ohh, and i cannot look that far but like your daddy said the same sun that melts the wax can harden clay and the same rain that drowns the rat will grow the hay and the might wind that knocks us down if we lean into will drive our fears away how can we see that far? gotta lean into it will drive our fears away it's the same sun, yeah and the same rain
I've got my hope set high That's why I came tonight I need to see the truth I need to see the light.
I've got my hope set high That's why I came tonight I need to see the truth I need to see the light And I can do my best And pray to the Father But the one thing I ought to know by now
When it all comes down When it all comes down If there's anything good that happens in life It's from Jesus.
You know that when it all comes down When it all comes down If there's anything good that happens in life It's from Jesus.
I've got my hope set high And like a star at night Out of the deepest dark It shines the purest light.
I've got my hope set high Beyond the wrong and right I need to see the truth I need to see the light. Cause I can do my best And pray to the Father But the one thing I ought to know by now
When it all comes down When it all comes down If there's anything good that happens in life It's from Jesus.
I'll tell you when it all comes down When it all comes down If there's anything good that happens in life It's from Jesus.
Main street U.S.A boarded up and dry Knowing what once was here just makes me want to cry Used to be the favorite place, yeah Now what remains are memories even time cannot erase
Old man Johnson's store, where we grew up too fast All that remains today are echoes from the past Used to be a booming town, yeah Now all that's left is either broken up or broken down
Chorus: Singing, oh ah, oh ah, oh ah, oh Where we used to belong There ain't nobody home Said, oh ah, oh ah, oh ah, oh You can knock all you want But, ain't nobody home
Packed up, moved away, running from the past Leaving behind the dusty dreams and broken glass Used to be a busy town, yeah Now everybody passes through, but they don't stick around
(Repeat Chorus)
Oh, was a newsstand on the corner Right next to the barber shop And down the street there That's where all the kids would stop And they would tease the neighbor's bulldog And laugh and run away And now there's no one left Who knows the truth in what you say
Now everybody passes through, but they don't stick around
(Repeat Chorus) Oh, oh, oh ah, oh ah, oh ah, oh Where we used to belong There ain't nobody home Talk all you want But, ain't nobody home Knock all you want But, ain't nobody home
When every moment gets too hard The end of the road can feel so far No matter how much time we're apart I'm always near you
I'll be the shelter in your rain, Help you to find your smile again I'll make you laugh at a broken heart Wherever you are
Chorus 'Cause I'm never gonna walk away If the walls come down someday All alone,and you feel afraid I'll be there when you call my name You can always depend on me I believe until forever ends I will be your friend
So many people come and go But nothing will change the you I know You'll never be just a face in the crowd And time will show
Chorus Through the seasons and the years I will always hold you dear Never you fear
Chorus
I'll be around when the candle burns down low And I want you and I want you to know
Why do lovers drift apart And how does love fade away When do pieces of a broken heart mend again You've been crying in the dark And you've been feeling alone Don't be scared of what you'll find When you turn the light on
Chorus: Ain't nobody gonna say goodbye No, ain't nobody gonna walk away This time, baby, I'm learning how to love you, love you Ain't nobody gonna make you cry No, ain't nobody ever really tried to love you Like I love you
What sad memory of yesterday What terrible scar Keeps you gathering the pieces of Your shattered heart There was once upon a time When hope was living within I know there will come a time When you can believe again
(Repeat Chorus)
How long have you been feeling lonely How long have you been feeling sad and blue
This time, baby, I'm learning how to love you, love you Ain't nobody gonna make you cry No, ain't nobody ever really tried to love you Like I love you
This time, baby, I've been learning how to love you, love you Let me love you Like I love you
CHORUS: It takes a little time sometimes To get your feet back on the ground It takes a little time sometimes To get the Titanic turned back around It takes a little time sometimes But baby you're not going down It takes more than you've got right now Give it time
What's this walking thru' my door I know I've seen the look before Sometimes in faces on the street Sometimes in the mirror looking back at me You can't fix this pain with money You can't rush a weary soul You can't sweep it under the rug, now honey It don't take a lot to know
CHORUS
Now it may not be over by morning But Rome wasn't built in a day You can name that thing a thousand times But it won't make it go away Let me put my arms around you And hold you while you weep We've been talking and you know what I'm sick of this talk And it's nothing that won't keep
Who knew love would come walking thru my door Turn a light on somewhere down inside Give me a feeling I'd never had before It was a long wait It was just the wrong time
But I hope you'll hold me now Somewhere within And when you think about What might have been
Chorus: Cry a river Flood the sea Cry a river over me Take the bitter With the sweet And cry a river over me
And how do you argue with a feeling in your bones 'Bout what is and what isn't meant to be Some things you live with And you never let it show Like the pain I felt The day I watched you leave
But I hope you'll think of me When tender winds blow Sit on the shores of love And just let it go
We are all the same it seems Behind the eyes Broken promises and dreams In good disguise All we're really looking for is somewhere Safe and warm The shelter of each other in the storm
Chorus: Maybe one day We can turn and face our fears Maybe one day We can reach out through the tears After all it's really not that far To where hope can be found Maybe one day We can turn this world around
Who can trace the path of time Not you or me The twisting road we call our lives We cannot see The hunger and the longing everyone of us Knows inside Could be the bridge between us if we try
(Repeat Chorus)
After all it's really not that far to where hope can be found
Chorus: Maybe one day We can turn and face our fears Maybe one day There'll be laughter in our tears After all it's really not that far To where hope can be found Maybe one day We can turn this world around
We can turn this world around Maybe we can, one day, turn this world around Oh, let's turn this old world around
There was this guy, he was down on his luck He was truly poverty's child Well, he had no home and he had no car And he wore a weary smile Moved out to l.a., knocked around for awhile But he was getting nowhere Then he did this movie and it did really well Now he's a millionaire See, life is a curious thing Life, ooh life is a curious thing
I know a man who could paint the town red Had a college degree in fun 'till the doorbell rang and a long lost flame said "this little boy is your son" Gave him a suitcase and a bear Left 'em in a cloud of dust Now he's checking out schools and driving carpools Learning to adjust He says life is a curious thing Life, ooh life is a curious thing
Well, I know that it can be demanding I know that it can be unkind I don't really understand it But lord sure knows I try Life is a curious thing Life, ooh life is a curious thing
Let me tell you 'bout a kid I knew A pudgy girl back in school She had greasy hair and geeky glasses Object of ridicule The other day in the check out line They were ringing up my rice and beans There she was, a pretty little face On the cover of a magazine And I said life is a curious thing Life, ooh life is a curious thing (chorus)
Just goes to show that you never know Just what tomorrow may bring But I'll tell you this that what it is Is seldom what it seems 'cause life is a curious thing Life, ooh life is a curious thing. . .
There you go making mountains Out of such a little hill Here I go mixing mortar For another wall to build There's a struggle in this life we lead It's partly you It's partly me (but)
Every road that's traveled Teaches something new Every road that's narrow pushes us to choose And I'd be lying if I said I had not tried to leave a time or two But every road that leads me Leads me back to you
Here we stand in the middle Of what we've come to know It's a dance, it's a balance Holding on and letting go But there is nothing that we can't resolve When love's at stake When love's involved
I took a drive along the west bank of the shore I thought of what you said then I thought some more You say your life is all but chiseled out in stone And all you want is just a taste of the unknown
Think it was yesterday I called you on the phone You say you need a change, I recognize the tone Buy me a ticket please, to anywhere I'll go I'm not saying what is right or what is wrong I'm just thinking you've been hanging here too long
So, why don't we, just up and leave it all behind Maybe a change would ease your mind For a time, leave it all behind
What I really want to do is see you smile Hear you talk and let me listen for a while There's too much going on to keep it all inside You try to whisper, but you start to scream and shout What you need is just a place to let it out (Chorus)
You try to whisper but you start to scream and shout What you need is just a place to let it out (Final Chorus)
