Halos and horns, sinners and saints
Hearts that are torn between what's wrong and ain't Just because it feels right does not make it so So we struggle through life in horns and halos Tempted and tried with each step we take We stumble and slide and make our mistakes Ask God to forgive us for all of our sins Then we take off our horns and wear halos again Halos and horns, sinners and saints Hearts that are torn between what's wrong and ain't Just because it feels right does not make it so So we struggle through life in horns and halos Halos and horns, sinners and saints We're praised or we're scorned, we either run or we faint Oh, but life is a challenge from the day that we're born Just tryin' to balance halos and horns It's heaven or hell, halos or horns Halos and horns, sinners and saints Hearts that are torn between what's wrong and ain't But just because it feels right; well, that don't make it so So we struggle through life in horns or halos It's either horns or halos |

(Dolly Parton)
Birds sing for everyone but me, for me it rains And I can't hear the music for the pain I see such happiness for some, but not for me With love, I always try so hard to get it right I find it gone just when I think I might Regretfully I see it last for some, but not for me Out of reach of all the things I want to have and hold I've come to just accept that's how it goes I've come so close Not for me, it's not for me to question, I suppose But I keep wonderin' what the future holds Why must it be? That life's so sweet for some, but not for me Birds sing for everyone but me, for me it rains And I can't see the sunshine for the pain But I see such happiness for some, but not for me For me it rains, there's only pain It's not for me |

Chorus:
Hello God, are you out there? Can you hear me, are you listenin' any more? Hello God, if we're still on speakin' terms Can you help me like before? I have questioned your existence, My resistance leaves me cold Can you help me go the distance? Hello God, hello, hello Verse 1: This old world has gone to pieces Can we fix it, is there time? Hate and violence just increases We're so selfish, cruel and blind We fight and kill each other In your name, defending you Do you love some more than others? We're so lost and confused Chorus: Hello God, are you out there? Can you hear us, are you listenin' any more? Hello God, if we're still on speakin' terms Can you help us like before? Oh, the free will you have given We have made a mockery of This is no way to be livin', We're in great need of your love Hello God Chorus: Hello God, can you grant us Love enough to make amends (Hello God) Is there still a chance That we could start again Hello God, we've learned our lesson Dear God, don't let us go More than ever Hello God, hello, hello Hello God, we really need you We can't make it without you (Hello God) We beseech you In the name of all that's true Hello God, please forgive us For we know not what we do Tag: Hello God, give us one more chance to prove ourselves to you Hello, God; hello, God |

If a picture paints a thousand words,
Then why can't I paint you? The words will never show The you I've come to know If a face could launch a thousand ships, Then where am I to go? There's no one home but you, You're all that's left me too And when my love for life is running dry, You come and pour yourself on me If I could be two places at one time, I'd be with you Tomorrow and today, Beside you all the way If the world should stop revolving Spinning slowly down to die, I'd spend the end with you And when the world was through, Then one by one the stars would all go out, Then you and I would simply fly away (Turnaround) If a picture paints a thousand words, Then why can't I paint you? 'Cause the words could never show The you I've come to know And one by one the stars will all go out, But you and I will simply fly away We'll fly away |

I used to sit for hours as a kid
And dangle my feet from an old flat bridge Seeing myself in the water below Shatter my image with the rocks I'd throw Shatter my image with the rocks I'd throw Long time gone and a long time ago When I shattered my image with the rocks I'd throw The world is cruel and people are cold Now they shatter my image with the rocks they throw Shatter my image with the rocks they throw I'm far from perfect but I ain't all bad And it hurts me more than it makes me mad We all do things that we don't want told And we all throw stones that we shouldn't throw You shatter my image with the rocks you throw Long time gone and a long time ago When I shattered my image with the rocks I'd throw The world is cruel and people are cold Now they shatter my image with the rocks they throw Shatter my image with the rocks they throw If you live in a glass house don't throw stones Don't shatter my image 'til you look at your own Look at your reflection in your house of glass Don't open my closet if your own's full of trash Stay out of my closet if your own's full of trash Long time gone and a long time ago When I shattered my image with the rocks I'd throw The world is cruel and people are cold Now they shatter my image with the rocks they throw Shatter my image with the rocks they throw Shatter my image with the rocks you throw Don't shatter my image with the rocks you throw |

I thought I saw the promise of forever in your eyes I thought that I was sure of what I saw You led me to believe that I was special in your life So I left my heart wide open for the fall I thought I'd found a safe and loving place inside your heart; And I was warm and willing any time The same soft lips that kissed me sweet were lying from the start But I swear I thought your love was genuine What a heartache you turned out to be What a heartache, what a heartache, Like a switchblade that cuts quick and deep Oh, what a heartache, what a heart break, Love ain't always what it appears to be Oh, what a heartache you turned out to be It just goes to show that you never can tell 'Cause I really thought that I knew you well I still can't believe I could be deceived so easily Are all these wishes I'm wishin' to myself Just rusty coins in a wishin' well? Wishes come true, they come false as well It's too late for you and me Oh, what a heartache you turned out to be What a heartache, what a heartache, Love is two-faced and easy to deceive Oh, what a heartache, what a heartache, What a mistake to think I could believe What a heartache, what a heartache, Like a switchblade that cuts quick and deep Ooh, what a heartache you turned out to be What a heartache, what a heartache, What a heartache, what a heartache, What a heartache. Ooh, what a heartache you turned out to be Ooh, what a heartache Oh, what a heartache, What a heart break you turned out to be |

Verse 1:
There will come a day when sorrow fades away, And anguish and heartache shall ease, No mothers cryin', no soldiers dyin', And turmoil and misery shall cease.

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, how sweet When the raven of darkness turns into a white dove of peace Tag: Raven dove, behold he cometh in the clouds And every eye shall see him Sweet bird, sweet bird of peace Raven Dove |

Oh, you're out there tonight with another And my pain is so dreadfully sharp. I picture you with her and shudder, It's like a dagger through the heart Do you think that my feelings don't matter, Or your cheatin' or hurtful remarks When you leave me all broken and shattered It's like a dagger through the heart Oh, I know I'm a fool to keep stayin' When you've made hurtin' me such an art, Tossed around like a used box of crayons, It's like a dagger through the heart Oh, you cut me to pieces so often Like a knife or a poisonous dart I would be better off in my coffin, It's like a dagger through the heart Oh, I know I'm a fool to keep stayin' When you've made hurtin' me such an art, Tossed around like a used box of crayons, It's like a dagger through the heart Like a dagger through the heart, through the heart |

Verse 1:
The word "If", just two tiny letters Says so much for something so small The biggest little word in existence; Never answers, just questions us all 1st Chorus: If regrets were gold, I'd be rich as a queen If teardrops were diamonds, how my face would gleam If I'd loved you better, I wouldn't be lonely If only, if only, if only Verse 2: But looking back now I see clearly With my twenty-twenty hindsight Oh, but don't think I haven't paid dearly, 'Cause you could be in my arms tonight 2nd Chorus: If regrets were gold, I'd be rich as a queen If teardrops were diamonds, how my face would gleam How I let you go, I swear is beyond me But if only; ah, if only; oh, if only 3rd Chorus: I could start over, if I could go back Have the power to change things Then I would do that But I listened to others like a fool, Oh, shame on me Tag: But if only you would just come back If only, dare I even ask Oh, if only |

Verse 1:
John Daniel came to town one summer afternoon Wearin' dirty work clothes so everyone presumed He was just another logger from the loggin' camp nearby And he was, but there was somethin' different in John Daniel's eyes Verse 2: John Daniel was a young man, not more than twenty-four And there was an air about him that one could not ignore And in spite of callused hands & dirty clothes, his face was kind And I wanted so to know what was in John Daniel's mind 1st Chorus: John Daniel, tell me where did you come from; tell me where is it you've been John Daniel, tell me why are you different from all of these other men John Daniel, there's somethin' about you that I don't quite understand John Daniel, do you hold the answer to a higher plan? Verse 3: I rented him a room; he went upstairs like all the rest It was Saturday and he'd be goin' in to town, I guessed But he left in a robe and sandals, with a Bible in his hand; And I thought to myself, John Daniel, I don't understand Verse 4: Now I'd planned to meet some friends of mine when I got off at three, In the park we often gather to talk of love and peace When I got there I found that a crowd had gathered 'round; And there I saw John Daniel a sittin' on the ground 2nd Chorus: John Daniel, tell me where did you come from; tell me where is it you've been John Daniel, tell me why are you different from all of these other men John Daniel, there's somethin' about you that I don't quite understand John Daniel, do you hold the answer to a higher plan? Verse 5: So, "You want to be free," he said, "Well, this is how you can." As he read from the Bible he held in his hand We were searchin' for the truth not knowin' where to look, Not knowin' that the answers all were in John Daniel's book Verse 6: John Daniel told us all how we could be free John Daniel taught us all a better way for you and me He came to us in our own way so we'd be sure to see He had the light and essence of the man from Galilee 3rd Chorus: John Daniel, tell me where did you come from; tell me where is it you've been John Daniel, tell me why are you different from all of these other men John Daniel, there's something about you that I don't quite understand John Daniel, do you hold the answer to a higher plan? Tag: John Daniel, John Daniel, John Daniel John Daniel do you hold the answer to a higher plan? John Daniel came to town one summer afternoon Wearin' dirty work clothes so everyone presumed He was just another logger from the loggin' camp nearby And he was, but there was somethin' different in John Daniel's eyes Ooh, John Daniel, tell me where did you come from Tell me where is it you've been John Daniel, tell me why are you different from all of these other men John Daniel, there's something about you that I don't quite understand John Daniel, do you hold the answer to a higher plan? |

(Jimmy Page/Robert Plant)
There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold And she's buying a stairway to heaven When she gets there she knows if the stores are all closed, With a word she can get what she came for Ooh, a stairway to heaven There's a sign on the wall but she wants to be sure 'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings In a tree by the brook there's a songbird who sings, Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven Oh-oh, makes me wonder. I wonder; I really, really wonder There's a feelin' I get when I look to the west And my spirit is crying for leavin' In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees And the voices of those who stand lookin' Ooh. It's whispered that soon if we all call the tune Then the piper will lead us to reason, And a new day will dawn for those who stand long And the forests will echo with laughter Oh-oh-oh-oh, Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh If there's a bustle in your hedgerow don't be alarmed now. It's just a spring clean for the May queen Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run There's still some time to change the road you're on Oh, it makes me wonder Your head is hummin' and it won't go in case you don't know, The piper's callin' you to join him Oh, can you hear the wind blow And did you know your stairway lies upon the whisperin' wind Stairway to heaven, stairway to heaven You can't buy it, you can't borrow You've got to walk it straight and narrow Stairway to heaven, stairway to heaven, stairway to heaven And as we walk on down the road Our shadows longer than our souls, All that glitters is not gold Wanna be a rock and not a roll Oh, the great almighty dollar leaves you lonely, lost and hollow You can't fool yourself forever You gotta work to get to heaven Stairway to heaven. If we listen and hold fast To every question that we asked The truth will come to us at last And she's buying a stairway to heaven |
