Love Will Take You
Here me talkin’ about you
You could be walkin’ above the clouds
But you decided to hide out in the rain
You figure your heart’s been broken
Love won’t be spoken here again
It’ll never be the same
don’t have to time your heart
just wind it up and start again
some people never know, some people never go
where only love can make or break you
There’s so much more to be, so baby, come with me
i guarantee my love will take you
just a little bit higher
You may be tempted to worry
But you should definitely take a chance
Baby, let yourself fall in love again
And maybe your knees are shakin’
Your love won’t be taken for granted again
I can give you more than games
don’t have to time your heart
just wind it up and start again
(repeat chorus)
(bridge)
We need the rain to wash away suspicion and sadness
Be afraid when yesterday begins again and again
(repeat chorus)
Mirrors On My Shoes
That face so innocent it’s hard to believe
Like some kind of angel
The things I’ve never had i suddenly needed
I never felt stranger
Just diggin’ the danger
When I first saw you through my
Rose colored glasses
You were too good to be true
But time has taught me that my
Rose colored glasses
Were just the mirrors on my shoes
I see you in the mirrors on my shoes
You called me “daddy” and it made me feel cool
A walking disater, one ignorant fool
I learned a lesson that they don’t teach in school
That sweet telecaster
Was all she was after
When I first saw you through my
Rose colored glasses
You were too good to be true
But time has taught me that my
Rose colored glasses
Were just the mirrors on my shoes
I see you in the mirrors on my shoes
(bridge release)
I’m lookin’ down
She’s out of town
Between You and Me
(retro chorus)
Between you and me there’s a place you can find me
Between you and me and the heavens above
There’s something i see in your face that reminds me
Of love
Just between you and me
There’s only one place i long to be
Safe in your heart, under your care
You’ll find me there
Just between you and me
Oh, it comes automatically
How many times have you looked my way
And i knew what you’d say
And with just one look
You can read me like a book
And it comes so naturally
Between you and me, we got something priceless
Between you and me, from heaven above
Between you and me, we’ve found us a
Timeless place called love
Just between you and me
Just between you and me
I couldn’t tell you honestly
If i’d want to live for one more day
Should you go away
And you know you’ll never find
Any two more of a kind
No-one will ever share what’s
(repeat chorus)
(inst)
(repeat “b” )
(repeat chorus)
I Can Talk About Love
I don’t know much about
Money, fortune or fame
And who invented the light bulb
Wow!!! I forgot his name
I didn’t make it to school
The day they taught it all
But hey!
I can talk about love
Don’t ask me anything ‘bout
What went down what day
Yeah, too much information
Drives me insane
Come to think, if i can’t recall
It don’t matter
But hey
I can talk about love
I can talk about whatcha’ do to me
Hear me talkin’ ‘bout love
Think about all the possibilities
I can’t say it enough
It’s all about you, all about me
I wanna’ hold you forever
It feels better and better
Girl your body, your kisses
Oh heaven’s what this is
Did i hear what i heard?
You whisper those words
‘bout to shut me up
It just seems like everyone’s
Looking to be what they’re not
I’d rather be one of those people
Believin’ in what they got
I’ll listen to all of those stories
Until my ears are shot
Then we can talk about love
(cho. Etc.)
I Can't Wait
Once again I wait at home, just another lonely mornin’
Prayin’ everything’s alright while I’m wishin’ you were gone
Everytime I try to understand I realize I’m only just a man
Who’s in love with an angel who forgot how to fly
For every little ray of light you hide behind your darkness
Everytime we’re feelin’ right you seem to run away
I just wanna hear your gentle laughter
And I wanna see your smilin’ face
Even love can steal your patience
And leave nothin’ in your place
I can’t wait
For you to just make your own decisions
You’ve been searchin’ for a vision
With your eyes completely closed
I can’t wait
For you to just finally make it happen
Let go of all the trappings
If you’re still in love you’ll find your way home
Never been the kind of man
Who could take a love for granted
Forever is the longest word
And it’s awful hard to say
Baby, if you want this love to be
You just gotta get some kinda free
‘Cause I’ll always love you angel
but you gotta learn to spread your wings
(Repeat Chorus)
Home,
If you just give yourself a chance
You can have brand new romance again
We can
Love all the blues away
(Repeat Chorus)
Whatever Happened (To Our Love)
Lately, something that we used to have is gone, oh no
It’s crazy, I’m feelin like I just can’t carry on, without you
We tried to find some more, we’ve seen it all before
Should we let it end this way, oh
Whatever happened to our love
Did we create it in our minds
Or were we runnin out of time
Whatever happened to our love
If it wasn’t meant to be
Why do we need to cry
Maybe we forgot to give ourselves a chance, oh baby
Waiting for everything but love to bring romance
We’ve left it all behind, but you’re always on my mind
Should we let it end this way, oh
(Repeat chorus)
Take a moment of your time, maybe tonight
Look at all we’ve left behind, if we’re wrong or right
Does it matter who’s to blame
When we both feel the same
Should we let it end this way
What can we do about it
A Foreign Fire
You and I, so caught up in each other’s lives
We’ve forgotten the parts of ourselves we left behind
Now when I look into your eyes
I’m watchin’ every tear you cry
Light a foreign fire, new desire
I can see that you need to be in the zone
Something feels the same for me
Do you wanna be all alone, in love
Open up your heart, touch my soul again
Maybe we can start with stitches we can mend
We can go so far if we only bend
Open up your heart and fall in love again
With me
And no one knows the reason why it comes and goes
Maybe love need some time on her own, we’ll never know
And I don’t wanna throw away
Any of the love we’ve made
We can find desire, foreign fire
Meet me there cause there’s more to share in the zone
Baby, tell me truthfully
Do you wanna be all alone, in love
(Repeat chorus)
We can find enough, new desire
We can light it up, foreign fire
(Repeat chorus)
Just Another Fool
I coulda’ been long, I coulda’ been tall
I coulda’ been filthy rich, intelligent, I coulda’ had it
all
But something went wrong, I shoulda’ just stalled
I never shoulda’ listened to my heart
Never shoulda’ answered when you called
I coulda’ been free, I shoulda’ been me
I shoulda’ been walkin’ tall, through it all
But now I’m on my knees
It shoulda’ been right, but we’re turnin’ out wrong
I shoulda’ just seen it in your eyes
Guess I shoulda known it all along
That you wanted something else from me
Something that you need, nobody ever had to give
All I wanted was something else from you
A little bit of truth, was all I ever needed
(Chorus)
You win, I’m gone, and I know you’ll get along
You can always find yourself another fool
Too thin, for too long, I’m never right, you’re never wrong
But I think I’m more than just another fool
I’m just another fool who’s leavin’
you behind
The latest in your line of other fools
I’m just another fool who found himself in time
I just don’t wanna’ be another fool
You coulda been real, you shoulda’ been wise
I was standin’ right before you, wide open all the time
You were livin’ a lie, I caught it in time
You were singin’ all your sweet songs
But your words just never rhyme
When I think of you it seems to me, a mind’s a terrible
thing
When you use it just to win some private war
When it all comes down to you and I, it’s obvious to me
And baby, I surrender
(Repeat chorus)
Lost Souls
Her mama said, “You gotta’ live by the rules”
And “Don’t ever show what you feel”
She did her best until she felt like a fool
She needed to find something real
He grew up lonely on the wrong side of town
He’d always been on his own
He never wanted anything that he’d found
That is until she came along
Lost souls, big trouble
Never bet a dollar on their changes
Lost souls
Two dancers in paradise
Lost souls, big trouble
Together they’ll be takin’ all the chances
Lost souls
Two dancers in paradise
They stole a Cadillac and aimed for the coast
True love and a trunk full of beer
Pulled in a truck stop, ordered coffee and toast
Pulled out a gun, “Put the money in here”
A call came into the highway patrol
“Those two are at it again”
They brought out fifteen cars and started to roll
And what they began ended right here
(Repeat Chorus”
(Bridge)
You
still hear the stories around here
No one ever stops to wonder
True love and glory gone up in flames
In flames
Their only way
A game
A shame
They’re blown away
So Far Gone
I used to be the kind
of man everybody called a vagabond
I’ve broken almost every rule and called it free
So, all you had to do was drop your hat
And I’d be jumpin’ all over your bones
But, that was then,
and this is now
I turned it around
Now I’m livin’
in Salt Lake City and all I am is bored to tears
Ain’t no runnin’ around, ain’t no fun to be found
It’s the same old, same old, day old white bread thing
Now I’m livin’ in Salt Lake City, impossible to find me here
While I’m supposed to be glad it’s the downside of sad
Either drill me, thrill me, or kill me please
‘Cause I’m so far gone
Everything is so clean
and bright I’m always in my ‘round the clock shades
If you’re tryin’ to find mister right, it ain’t me
The reality I left behind ‘cause I engineered a really bad trade
I’m not on a
roll, I’m so in control
I’m losin’ my soul
(Repeat Chorus)
(Bridge)
I’d rather be
in blue Hawaii
Just wearing lampshades
On my sunburned head
You’ll find me there
Learning the hula
Drinking Mai Tai’s and Chi Chi’s
Passed out in my bed
(Repeat Chorus)
Only One Apple
You’re lookin’
for another, somebody who knows your rules
A brand new kind of lover, a leader who follows
He’ll be your dad and mother, and always agree with you
“Why do they all run away?”
something always happens,
right after it all begins
he falls into your trappings, you find yourself winning
so, Eve competes with Adam, when Adam can never win
“Why do they all run away?”
“Why doesn’t love ever stay?”
it was only one apple
just on taste of honey
suddenly you’re on your own
and it’s still about an apple
but now we call it money
guaranteed – nobody home
every new beginning,
you start with the same old rules
a game you’ll soon be winning, you’re the only one playing
your love is only fitting, into those same old shoes
“Why do they all run away?”
We all can see you
coming, lookin’ for someone new
Talkin’ ‘bout good lovin’, and takin’ those chances
You live to rise above it, and hold on to yesterday
“Why do they all run away?”
“Why doesn’t love ever stay?”
(Report Chorus)
(Bridge)
She’s gonna’
have her way
-- All gold, all jewels, all win, no lose
Or someone’s gonna’ pay
-- All old, all fools, too thin, new rules
There’s nothin’ you can say
-- She needs, to live, you give, no news
You’re livin’ yesterday
-- Go up, go down, do what, she’ll choose
It only takes one
bite
-- She moves, so smooth, so soon, no groove
Just one turn to the right
-- She fakes, she takes, don’t make, mistakes
So soon you’re taking flight
-- No snakes, no brakes, high rates, all skate
And leaving paradise
-- No bets, no threats, it gets, away
Never Let Go
Two souls searchin’ for eachother
Wishin’ they could find a way back home
Oh, if they could only rediscover
A feeling that they lost too long ago
And, baby, you and me
We’re more than just a memory
Who’d have thought we’d ever feel this way
Baby, I will hold you and never let go
‘til the end of time
and now I gotta’ let you know
I will love you and never let go
‘til the end of time
it’s something that you oughta’ know
it’s been seven days and seven nights
and not a single word from you
I guess it is the way that we’ve chosen
And I got so much on my mind
That I just wanna’ say to you
Way too many promises broken
And, baby, you and me
We’re more than just a memory
Who’d have thought we’d ever feel this way
Oh, oh, girl, I can’t believe
That both of us forget to care
But, if we ever make it back to yesterday
(Repeat Chorus)
(Bridge)
And, maybe I forgot to let you know
What you do when you’re touchin’ my heart
Oh, baby, I don’t wanna’ let you go
Oh, love will live if we just let it start again
(Repeat Chorus)
(Tag Stuff)
No, I’ll never let you go
And, it’s something that you gotta’ know
‘Til the end of time I want you by my side
Never let you go
I want to hold you and love you
To have you by my side
‘Til the end of time, baby
Baby, baby, I’ll never let you go
Bethlehem
With this frankincense and this gold and myrrh
We are traveling so far
For a vision of one child born of love
We are following this star
So, the three of us travel ‘round the world
We are riding toward one dream
In the darkest night we see heaven’s light
Shining on the new born king
What’s that star that’s shining, oh so bright
What’s this road that we must follow
Why this little town, these three men, so wise
Who’s this child that we must follow
Here to Bethlehem
There’s a song to sing, and a tale to tell
And a world to rise above
So, we’re traveling here to Israel
Just to find this child of love
We’ve all seen the light and our path is clear
Love is just around the bend
There’s an end in sight it begins right here
There’ll be peace in Bethlehem
(alt chorus answers)
what’s that star, oh so bright?
Road that we must follow?
Why this town – men, so wise
God’s own child, follow
Try to remember, where this started
Follow your heart
It’s more than December
It’s God’s own child
Stone Cold Hollywood
He likes to think that he’s politically connected
No matter what comes down he’s cool
He lives his life as thought he’s magically protected
And treats the rest of us like fools
He’s always first in line when someone else is flashin’
To claim he did it on his own
He’ll always hide behind somebody else’s passion
He’ll wrap it up and take it home
You know that he’s oh, so terminally hip
Nobody can clip the wings of a fool
‘Cause he’ll never take much more than a sip
He’ll miss out on the trip as long as he’s cool
And he’s
Stone cold Hollywood
Standin’ in front of you
An emperor without a stitch of clothes on
Stone cold Hollywood
Hiding from the truth
Responsible for everything that’s goin’ on
He’s always found a way whenever he’s in trouble
To place the blame on somebody else
You know it’s safe to say he lives inside his bubble
And if he feels he keeps it to himself
You know that he’s oh, so quiet and cruel
Abusing the rules just to have it his way
He will never know or care for the truth
As long as he’s cool he’ll pose it away
(Repeat chorus)
He’s definitely cold, he’s typically bold
And he’s dancin’ around in the clothing that he stole
He’s smellin’ the gold, and sellin’ your soul
And he’s doin’ his best to hide his getting’ old
He thinks that he’s bad, when his shit is so sad
But he’s takin’ the bows for what he’s never had
He’s followin’ fads, but he’s slippin’ a tad
‘Cause he’s never been the reason to be glad
Already Gone
Baby, I may never know exactly what you’re feelin’
But it seems you’re on another roll
Maybe I’m the last to see the glances you’ve been stealin’
What your lookin’ for is takin’ it’s toll
No guarantees, so baby please
Gotta keep the sugar coating to yourself
Either stay with me or set me free
Gotta’ let me get myself up off the shelf
Up in here, it’s all clear, you’re already
gone
And I know, ‘cause it shows, you’re already gone
And you’re already gone
Down the road
All on your own
Check please, Louise
What did I expects
And you’re already gone
Down the road
Ain’t nobody home
Check please, Louise
Thank you very next
And so, now we find ourselves exactly where we started
Tryin’ to fall in love with somebody else
Don’t know how to play this game and not be broken hearted
And I can’t believe the lies I’m gonna’ tell
Don’t lie to me, Pinnochio
Gotta’ keep the sugar coating to yourself
Baby, stay with me or let me go
Gotta’ let me get myself up off the shelf
You can’t hide, down inside, you’re already
gone
I’ll be fine, ‘cause in my mind, you’re already gone
(Repeat chorus)
Bad News
Her skirt goes down to her elbows
Her shoes are sharper than nails
With legs so long they never seem to stop
When she walks she steals the wind from your sails
Her eyes are holdin’ secrets that are rarely told
Her voice full of promises made
Her hands possess the power over hot and cold
Her lips so full they drive you insane
I’d do anything for her favors
Even walk a hundred miles through the fire
And she soon became my only desire
Don’t you know that she’s bad news
Lookin’ for someplace to happen
And after she’s had you
All that’s left is an empty shell
Don’t you know that she’s bad news
Her beauty’s just the bait for the trappin’
And after she’s had you, hell is just a place
If I ever see that face it would be
A hundred years too soon
You may just want to take a chance and let it fly
You say, “No one in the world is that mean.”
So, take it fast, make it last ‘cause by and by
She’ll turn you inside out and strip you clean
So, take it from one with burnt fingers
I was sure I could hit and run
But, she turned me over just for fun
(Repeat chorus)
(Bridge)
I can’t remember just how it started
I lost my place and I fell behind
The next thing I new I was broken hearted
All the time seemed to fly, I knew that I
Was beginning to lose my mind
I’ve looked in the eyes of the devil
Stood in line for the seat by the fire
When she fanned the flames of pure desire
(Repeat chorus)
I Know Love
The night is cold and lonely
When love’s so far away
Things couldn’t get too much better
But, it all comes down today
How could I see it comin’
Or see it going away
So blind when we fall in love
We make the same mistakes
I know you want a change
To get you through the night
I hope someday you get it right
I know love and when it’s burnin’ bright
No one’s feelin’ this way
So, take your shot, walk on out
Leave it all behind
We were wrong anyway
Someday I pray to deliver
Something someone needs
Hopin’ what comes in return
Will finally set me free
I know I did my best
I gave it all I had
But, sometimes things just turn out bad
(Repeat chorus)
(Bridge)
So wrong, so, so long
So wrong, so, so long
So leave it all behind
Baby, I’ll see you down the line
Finally free
(Repeat “B” section and chorus, etc)
Leap Of Faith
Lonely, far away from home
Go ahead who’s gonna’ know?
And it’s only the nights that seem so long
You might as well just give it a go
Don’t look now, someone’s standing in the
wings
Waiting for your sun to go down
Don’t you know that to me you’re everything?
My life is empty when you’re gone
And, it’s leaving a hole
Where the sun’s supposed to shine
Heaven don’t leave me behind
And with one leap of faith one innocent tumble
You’ll have to remember one lie
With just one leap of faith true love can crumble
Don’t let it happen tonight
It’s one step away from good-bye
Wandering all around the world
Workin’ hard, tryin’ to succeed
Don’t be wondering, don’t you be no fool
You and I are all that we need
And you’re never too far
From my heart and my mind
Heaven don’t leave me behind
(Repeat chorus)
(Bridge)
Don’t say good-bye
Take Me
(A cappella intro)
We need stories to tell, true love and glory, the echoes of bells
So, we keep searching, eventually landing alone
Then love comes along
I
saw your face, and it was magic
So, I asked myself, "is this another dream?"
So blown away, I can't imagine myself
Being hit and falling so soon
I fell so
hard, it's almost tragic
Every time my heart starts another scene
One stubborn fool, hopeless romantic
Because all I wanna' be is with you
(Chorus)
So, love please take me
Anywhere you wanna' go, I will follow you
So, don't forsake me
Once you've got me don't let go
Touch my soul and let it begin
Don’t break my heart again
You came
my way, and something told me
That you could be the one I'd be a fool to lose
What can I say, you just unfold me
And I know I will surrender to you
(Additional
lyrics for tag)
Here we throw, once again, caution to the wind
Here we go, 'round the bend, let this love begin
All I wanna'
be is with you
Baby, tell me what you're gonna' do
With all of your love
