*My love is a rock, an immovable force Anywhere that you are, my love is right here With any tick of the clock Life can change it's course But my love will not My love is a rock
Headed out into uncharted waters What you feel is your only guide And each step that you take brings you closer Just trust what you feel inside Cause something's telling you to keep on going Telling you that your aim is true Could be the voice of reason, or just blind devotion Whatever it is, it's calling out to you, singing....
*Repeat
Mixed messages shoot through a wire Tender turmoil in your voice Change is spreading through you like a fire Bridges are burning, you made your choice And as you're searching for peace in your world You may find yourself spinning around, and around, and around While the pain you've endured Only serves to make you surer Of the strength you have found, and then....
*Repeat
You may not be looking for love, but love may find you You may choose to close your eyes and run You may leave love far behind you In your eyes I can see the future In your heart I can always trust In your mind I will live on forever In your arms I will turn to dust These are feelings like I have never known The song of my very soul I can no longer silently sing it I'm gonna take it to the mountain and let it roll singing.....
My love is a rock, an immovable force Anywhere that you are, my love is right here With any tick of the clock Life can change it's course Some things are here and then gone before you know Some things disappear without a chance to grow But my love will not My love is a rock
When she turned away, you know it was just in time Cause I'd used up all my strength And you can't let a woman see you cryin And you know it's real She's not gonna change her mind You choose not to change your ways Though she begged you a thousand times And you don't understand And you want to be a man about it
*In time you'll learn to live without it And you know that you'll survive But still sometimes you doubt it If you can stand a little rain You're gonna grow again Cause you know that when love dies The heart survives
Your stare at the empty walls Inside of this vacant home You walk through these hollow halls And at night you sleep alone
*Repeat
You've been over it so many times in your head Looking for a hidden message of hope In something she said Still you find nothing to make this bad dream end Tell me, how many sleepless nights will you spend
All heaven broke loose It hit me like a shot right out of the blue All heaven broke loose I was shaken by the power of love Taken by the power of you
If I don't get to heaven For the things that I've done I guess it's all just history now Too late to be the innocent one I know that I've been led astray Love has torn me apart But each day is a victory now Since you have given peace to my heart Oh, I was a little bit crazy then Wheels kept turnin around And I kept losin ground ‘Till you stopped me from fallin again
The love that you've given me Is a love that is true And each time I feel like running I come running home to you
I cannot bathe you in a river gone black I cannot hold you in a poison rain If I can't see you through the air that we breathe What will love in the future be?
I wanna watch my children laugh as they run I wanna hold their children on my knee And tell them stories of a vanishing sun Of how it used to be
In my lover's life I want to share I want to see the world now through her eyes And about everything she sees, I care The time has come to rise
I cannot bathe you in a river gone black I cannot hold you in a poison rain If I can't see you through the air that we breathe What will love in the future be? Will we make it a different story? Is there love in the future for you and me?
We're looking for answers in outer space When will we discover the earth is a sacred place?
How did we end up ending up this way I always thought that we could work it out At times I wondered if we'd last out the day But my love was always stronger Stronger than my doubt Then here we are, are we running out of time? We've come so far to leave it all behind But that's how I feel I wanna know how you feel
I'd walk all night for you baby Stand in the pourin rain But you gotta meet me baby, half way You know that I don't wanna give up Do anything to make you stay But you gotta meet me baby, half way
I couldn't tell you what you meant to me I kept those feelings hidden far away And hoped that you could tell by looking at me Now you know what you needed Is too late to say....
That I love you more than I ever knew I could And I need you now like I never thought I would
I thought about livin my life without you In this cold, cold world Well I'm no man of steel But I'd walk on fire for you That's just how I feel
Love is a positive vibration With love you find the good in a bad situation Everybody's gonna need a helping hand It don't really matter where you stand You're gonna need someone to lean on
Hate is a constant inflammation A fire that's built on fear and frustration One man's heaven is another man's hell Every story has got two sides to tell Don't let anybody pull you under
Some people just love to hate They criticize when they can't relate Some people don't love, they just love to hate
Some people can hardly wait To tear down what you create Cause some people don't love, they just love to hate
Somebody attacks without a reason He's just trying to drag you down in the hole that he's in Why are people so negative I think that everybody ought to just live and let live We could use a little understanding
I guess some people been pushed around Now they're trying to even it up by putting somebody else down I believe that things can only get better When everybody learns to live together
Why can't we see eye to eye? I feel you don't want to try Cause you won't see me as I am If you can't accept in me The good with the bad Then you won't see me cry again You won't see me
Why'd you want to go and walk away? I have got some things to say But you won't see me as I am If you can't accept in me The good with the bad Then you won't see me try again You won't see me I'll be movin on, I'll be long gone
You are in my range I am in your sight You say, things don't change I say, they just might
You just might find that you can trust in me If you look at more than just what you want to see But you won't see me as I am If you can't accept in me The good with the bad Then you won't see me around here again You won't see me I'll be movin on, I'll be long gone
I think to much about you baby You've on my mind more than you should I would do without you now I would walk away now if I could I never needed anybody baby I'm the one who never thought I would
*I keep telling myself I don't need you I keep telling myself I don't want you, now I'd tell myself anything to make me believe That I don't love you baby But I can't lie to my heart
Something's got me running to you Something tells me I can't run away Even if I thought of leaving The thought of you would only make me stay No one's ever gotten to me baby I'm the one who always got away
*Repeat
I can't tell the sky that it's not blue How can I tell you that I don't love you?
A man once said love is all you need And if not right he was close indeed It won't pay the rent Won't buy your shoes But it's time well spent if it keeps away the blues It won't turn the tide or stop the rain And deep down inside there might be a little pain But you still go through it Cause it gets you through the night Cause when you get down to it love is all right
Love is all right Love is all right Oh, love is all right
When your girl walks out you just want her back You got to have her now and that's a fact Jack Cause as big and bad and mean as you are You can't watch you're woman in another man's car You wanna keep that girl in you're passenger seat You wanna find her groove, wanna keep her beat So if you have to do it, you're ready to fight Cause when you get down to it love is all right
My life is runnin like a stock car race High speed and lots of curves Keep the pedal to the metal, win or lose But don't lose your nerve Some people live in fear If you can call that living I'm gonna keep my ass in gear And take the chance I'm given
*I'm gonna go for broke, play to win Do or die, just don't give in Take a shot, roll the dice Don't look back, just go for broke
My love is spinning like a steering wheel Just grab it and hold on tight Feel the power in your hands Take me right to the edge tonight Some people love in vain If you can call that lovin So let's hit the streets again It's all or nothin
*Repeat
Standing on the razor's edge But I'm not going under Every night I'm on the line Livin like my days are numbered
The whole thing started 1963 Young girls screamin' Black and white T.V. I was so ready, for something to set me free Those four boys from England, singin' right to me
That night I had a dream, of a rock 'n' roll band Everyone said no, no, no. I said yeah, yeah, yeah
I can't stop, can't stop rockin'...
Never really fit in Couldn't quite be cool Got my ass kicked up and down the halls of my high school When things got too crazy When life got too cruel I would just remember the boys from Liverpool
When I was lost, they were there to hold my hand When everyone said no, no, no. They said yeah, yeah, yeah
I was with you, you were alone Now I'm standing here Wisdom came only after you'd gone Now I'm starting all over, with a tear in my eye I just never thought you'd disappear
In the night your spirit arises With it comes the pain I hope I'm dreaming cus it hurts so bad When I reach out for you, I'm alone in some room I just never thought you'd disappear
I still love you like a child Wasn't that good enough? I still want you, it drive me wild The pain is just too much Maybe I've lost enough
Time heals all, so they say, I don't know Sometimes nothing's clear Maybe someday I'll understand But I know for a start There's a place in my hear that is yours And it won't disappear
I still love you like a child Wasn't that good enough? I still want you, It drives me wild The pain is just too much I still love you
Building The Bridge Father to son, husband to wife Brother to brother, black man to white Living together, falling apart Looking for the common ground in every human heart It all comes down to the two of us Yeah this is where we start We are building the bridge One small stone at a time With a lot of love And some help from above From your heart to mine
There's a land of justice, cities filled with pride A mountain of hope, just on the other side Across a river of indifference, and a valley of despair There's a tower of courage, piercing through the air I have a dream for our children, I want to take them there
And we are building the bridge One small stone at a time With a lot of love And some help from above From your heart to mine
As we seek out understanding As we learn to forgive When we open up our minds When our words are true and kind We are building the bridge
I can't kiss the telephone, I can't hug your picture And these postcards just remind me how far away you are There's two thousand miles of highway lyin' between us But the way I feel tonight it doesn't seem like all that far
`Cus when I get home I know the first thing we're gonna do When I get home I'm gonna turn my body loose on you It's been so long, I've been so true I want you when I get home
If I could I'd order you for breakfast every morning There'd be a headline story about you in my USA Today Every in-flight movie'd feature you and all your glory And into your friendly skies, this airplane would carry me away
`Cus when I get home I know the first thing we're gonna do...
Now you could move and leave no forwarding address You could be living on the moon But I know just where you are, I don't have to guess You're waiting up for me and praying that I'll be home safe and soon
`Cus when I get home I know the first thing we're gonna do...
I thought I had all I could ask for Only a fool would think there was more I would never have believed That anything could feel brand new Then I met you
I'd been around the world, and then some Anything I wanted I could get some But I had not been anywhere I could not share the things I knew Then I met you
Ooh then I met you
I never thought I would ever say That I need you the way I do But then I never felt what I'm feeling today I just never knew, then I met you
I've heard my songs over the radio They follow me wherever I go I wold listen to my own words And wonder why they'd never ring quite true Then I met you...and I knew
I know she's sleeping with him But it can't be true She loves me too much That's just something she wouldn't do
Now you may say I look the other way You may think I'm blind But I say don't go looking for what you don't want to find
Wouldn't I be the one that you'd come running to Wouldn't they be my arms I look into your eyes as you tenderly hold me So safe and secure, oh how I wish I were
I know she's sleeping with him But it can't be true...
I say to myself, I've given all I can I tell myself this game must end But in the mirror do I see a new man Or will I look the other way again?
I know she's sleeping with him But it can't be true...
I know it, you know it, everybody knows it I can't look the other way I won't look the other way again
After Tonight Staring up at the moonlight Looking up at the stars I'm alone and I just want to be with you But I don't know where you are Maybe I took you for granted So blind, I let your love slip away Now I'm missing you so much I can't stand it Please believe me when I say,
After tonight, I never will be the same again This time I'm sure that nothing means more Than giving you all the love I can After tonight I promise, I'm gonna be a better man Just hold me tight, and I'll be all right After tonight
Anticipating the moment When I can make love with you again Patience is a virtue I'm finding Very hard to understand
After tonight, I will never be the same again This time I'm sure that nothing means more Than giving you all the love I can After tonight I promise, I'm gonna be a better man Just hold me tight, and I'll be all right After tonight
Hey, wait a minute Something just ain't right Hey, wait a minute Something's just not fair I was supposed to win the lottery I'm supposed to be a millionaire I'm supposed to be a worldwide tourist With lots of equity and life insurance Yes I'm supposed to be a gold card member Rubbin' elbows with the big time spenders I'm supposed to be a wealthy man But all I've got are blistered hands Hey, wait a minute!
Hey, wait a minute There's got to be a better way I'm workin' twice as hard but gettin' no richer Than I was yesterday I'm supposed to drive a big Mercedes Live in a mansion full of naked ladies I'm supposed to own my own casino Be a superstar like Sammy, Frank and Dino Some day I'm gonna be a big success And tell my boss to kiss my ass
Hey, wait a minute Something must be wrong I'm supposed to be dining on caviar And drinking Dom Perignon Yes I'm supposed to have open invitations To classy country clubs all across the nation Yes I'm supposed to have jewelry and diamonds And a fifty foot yacht I can sail around the islands I'm supposed to be so carefree But all I've got is misery Hey, wait a minute Something's just not right
