			Like the sweet morning dew,  
		I took one look at you, And it was plain to see you were my destiny. With my arms open wide, I threw away my pride. I'll sacrifice for you dedicate my life for you. I will go where you lead always there in time of need. And when I lose my will you'll be there to push me up the hill. There's no, no looking back for us, we got love sure 'nough, that's enough. You're all, you're all I need to get by. Like an eagle protects his nest for you I'll do my best, Stand by you like a tree, dare anybody to try and move me. Darlin' in you I found strength where I was torn down Don't know what's in store but together we can open any door. Just to do what's good for you and inspire you a little higher. I know you can make a man out of a soul that didn't have a goal. 'Cause we, we got the right foundation and with love and determination. You're all, you're all I want to strive for and do a little more. All, all the joys under the sun wrapp'd up into one.  |

			(Harry Garfield And Michael McDonald) 
		Not every hope is a dream come true Not every heart is made of steel Not all love sees the end of time And more hearts than not will be broken tryin' But I believe that love is enough In the healing of your touch Because you show me What it's all about I would never find out Unless you showed me How easily we complicate the simple things And one mistake we make along the way Is to think there's so much more we need Of things that time only takes away Here all that we have is now We learn to believe somehow It's enough we have today All I know is time changes everything Whatever tomorrow brings I will believe...  |

			You give your hand to me then you say, 'Hello' 
		I can hardly speak, my heart is beating so Oh, anyone who can tell, you think you know me well You don't know me 'cause you don't know Dreams of you at night who longs to kiss your lips Longs to hold you tight, to you I'm just a friend That's all I've ever been, you don't know me 'Cause I never knew the art of making love Though my heart aches with love for you Afraid and shy, I let my chance go by Chance that you might love me too You give your hand to me and then you say goodbye I watch you walk away, wish I'm that lucky guy You'll never, never know the one who loves you so You don't know me, no, no, no, you don't know me  |

		You if anyone should know what time will tell Not so long ago you taught me oh so well Now your time has come Someone took your place (there's) no need to tell me that he's gone ('cause) I can read it on your face You learned that you could dream every night You can try all you like You can pray every day that it's enough You can hope all you want It's something to hang your faith on But you can't make it love There's no way love can grow If only one is true I would think that you should know After all, I learned this from you No matter how much one's in love As long as one is lying There ain't no amount of tears There ain't no amount of trying You learned that you could dream every night You can try all you like You can pray every day that it's enough You can hope all you want It's something to hang your faith on  |

		What makes a man Believe in a brighter day When his whole world is fallin' apart All promise is fading away What does it take, To turn his heart to stone When he's got more than his share of riches More than one life can hold Sometimes it takes More than we've got it seems Something so close, so near Even a blind man sees If it takes a hand strong and mighty To spin this world around It takes the power of a woman's sweet love To make a man hold on What makes a man Hang his hope on someone To bring the light out of darkness Makes him believe a change is gonna come Something inside that just won't let go Something so simple, so sweet, Even a fool would know If it takes a hand strong and mighty To spin this world around It takes the power of a woman's sweet love To bring joy out of pain To let sunshine through rain To bring hope back to the heart To bring together what's fallin' apart She's got the kind of kisses To make a weak man strong She's got the kind of love To make a good man go wrong She's got what it takes  |

			Oh, no no baby 
		You're alone all the time Does it ever puzzle you, did you ask why You seem to fall in love, and out again Do you ever really love or just pretend Oh, baby why fool yourself Don't be afraid to help yourself It's never too late, too late to Stop, look Listen to your heart, hear what it's saying Stop, look And listen to your heart, hear what it's saying Love, love, love Though you try, you can't hide All the things you really feel, this time decide That you will open up, and let it in There's no shame in sharing love you feel within So darling, just jump right in Head over heels, and fall right in 'Cause it's never too late too late to Stop, look And listen to your heart, hear what it's saying Stop, look And listen to your heart, hear what it's saying Love, love, love ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By BELL, THOM / CREED, LINDA <i>Lyrics © Warner/Chappell Music, Inc.</i>  |

			Oooo 
		No, no, no, no No flowers where there used to be Just on the table there Just like you they're gone And now the table's bare Everywhere I turn I see Memories of a love so strong This lonely room just echoes Telling me you're gone [Chorus: ] It's not over yet Each night in my dreams You're back in my arms Still here in my arms Like you used to be But each morning I awake And I face reality I'm still not over you Getting over me A foolish heart, like mine Will always take for granted That precious love like yours Will wait till I come back But too many times I turned away Leaving you to cry alone But with every tear I'm learning All the ways that I was wrong [Chorus:] I'm still not over you And I'll never be I'm still not over you Getting over me  |

			(Michael McDonald And Bernie Chiaravalle) 
		Behind us now lies a long bending road And at this point we wonder what we need to be All this way like a single heart Just so you know nothings really changed for me For so long I watched you shine your light I know hope is hard to find right now (but) Someday you will Someday you will In every life the darkest days seem so long Till the fear fades like the waning tide The mornin' comes when the din in your head subsides Just enough for the quiet voice inside To point the way to the place where your strength lies Though it might take a while to find Someday you will... On that day you'll spread your wings and fly Although now you may not know why  |

		So long ago that you can hardly remember So far away but not so out of mind And you're still waiting to be forgiven Whose problem is it after all this time Down deep inside, if I were in your shoes I know in my heart, I'd never do that to you It's time to decide, if I still wanna try If love's gonna last, there's one thing I gotta find I'm searchin' for understanding I'm lookin' for understanding I'm sorry that my feelings are still so tender The things they make me do, and make me say I know in time that all things get better But 'til then this may be the price you have to pay Down deep inside, if I were in your shoes I know in my heart, I'd never do that to you It's time to decide, what we're gonna do If love's gonna last, there's something I need from you So easily trust can be broken Not so when a heart's got to mend Your love was the one thing I believed in Will it ever be the same again  |

[Chorus] Won't you help to sing These songs of freedom? 'Cause all I ever have Redemption songs Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery None but ourselves can free our minds Have no fear for atomic power, 'Cause none of them can stop the time How long shall they kill our prophets, While we stand aside and look? Some say it's just a part of it We've got to fulfill the book.

So let love open the door Maybe it's time that we hold on tight In each others embrace We might just see the morning light 'cause when we touch It's like a brand new start It's there we find the music in each others heart And we might just discover that we don't always see what's for real Love is somethin' that you feel [Chorus] We've both been here before So let love open up the door What love will surely show us Ain't that what we came here for? It ain't nothin' new Just a chance to finally see this love through This love has one purpose (and) Never asks for anything more So let love open the door Sometimes words only mean so much They don't say how we feel They don't keep us in touch It's too late once we drift apart All that's left are the pieces of two broken hearts [Chorus] Amy sings... Love is sweet, love is kind Love will open up your mind Let love open up the door All that counts, nothin' more Love is what we came here for  |

		Starin' back at a room full of strange faces I sense another welcome worn thin A bartender sayin' "son take it outside" "take it out the door you brought it in" He said, he don't wanna hear about my problem Or why I think I got it so tough He said guys like me come a dime a dozen That my only problem is knowin' when I've had enough (but) how can I have too much? How can I have to much of somethin' I can't get enough of? You said it so well in your letter baby You gave me every reason why Girl you sure use a lot of paper, just to say good-bye Well here's to the good times Here's to the way we were Here's to how you tried to be my lover 'till disaster struck Now you wanna be a friend and tell me I'm a man who simply needs too much But how can I have too much?  |

			Nowhere To Run to, baby, nowhere to hide 
		Got Nowhere To Run to, baby, Nowhere to hide. It's not love I'm a running from, It's the heartbreak I know will come. 'Cause I know you're no good for me, but you've become a part of me. Ev'rywhere I go your face I see ev'rystep I take you take with me. Nowhere To Run to, baby, nowhere to hide Got Nowhere To Run to, baby, Nowhere to hide. I know you're not good for me, but free of you I'll never be, no. Each night as I sleep, into my heart you creep. I wake up feelin' sorry I met you, hoping soon that I'll forget you. When I look in the mirror to comb my hair I see your face just a smiling there. Nowhere To Run, Nowhere to hide from you baby, Got Nowhere To Run to, baby, Nowhere to hide. I know you're no good for me, but you've become a part of me, How can I fight a lover that shouldn't be when it's so deep, so deep, deep inside of me My love reaches so high I can't get over it. It's so wide I can't get around it, no Nowhere To Run, Nowhere to hide from you baby. Just can't get away from you baby, no matter how I try to baby, Nowhere to hide. I know you're no good for me, but free of you I'll never be, Nowhere To Run, Nowhere to hide, Got Nowhere To Run to baby.  |

					 If we could dream our lives away That would be just fine Without the cares and fears that prey on everybody's mind Tryin' to get back to a memory Tryin' to put the flame back in our hearts As we look back and we see the past Like it never was [Chorus:] 'cause it's no such luck There ain't no such thing Can't blame the stars or fever of spring No such luck There ain't no such thing Something's always goin' wrong We're just one step ahead of the heartaches| Tryin' to disguise how they take their toll Just when you think that you got it down Then you lose control [Chorus]  |

		Why do we look so hard? Why do we ask so much? In this world, it's sad in a way How time unblesses love, and faith is lost There's no more prayin' for saving grace to find us No more waiting for conscience to remind us There are few things meaningless as words At the point of no return Why do we want so much? Can we be satisfied? In this life how many times Can we pass the promised land, forever lost? There's no more prayin' for saving grace to find us No more waiting for conscience to remind us There are few things meaningless as words At the point of no return We are lost between faith and hope Between heart and mind, between love and pride Eventually, the day will come When lies won't buy time Tears won't bring hope When there's no more prayin'... Nowhere to run or do what we've done before There are few things meaningless as words At the point of no return We are lost between faith and hope Between heart and mind, between love and pride  |

		You say sometimes you feel like searchin' For what you think you need If you go searchin' for life's reward You'll wind up sailin' the seven seas 'cause here and now when lightning strikes And it drives us to our knees Only then do we realize What we don't always see That even now in our darkesr hour We've got the whole universe in our hands Of all the choices we could make If we do the lovin' thing Someday when we look back on this I doubt if we'll remember much About the times we hurt each other The reasons we forgot to trust There's more to us than that Sometimes I may try to be Though I know I'm not your answer But I'm not your problem either baby In that way we're all the same And I know if I surrender It's a lesson we must learn A simple truth we can understand Someday when we look back on this Far enough away to see That the most we could ask of this life The best that we can hope to be Is to be grateful for love so clear Like a mirror reflects your face If you search for the tracks of your tears I know you won't find a trace There's more to us than that Every single tear Every shattered dream They're just like pieces of a puzzle Of themselves not what they seem Even in our darkest hour I doubt if we'll remember much About the times we hurt each other The reasons we forgot to trust  |

Think I'd better let it go Looks like another love T.K.O. Tried to take control of love, love took control of me Cause you lose all thought, sense of time and have a change of mind Takin' the bumps and the bruises of all the things of a two-time loser Try to hold on, faith is gone, it's just another sad song [Chorus: x2] Tried to take control of the love, love took control of me Cause you lose all thought, sense of time and have a change of mind Takin' the bumps and the bruises of all the things of a two-time loser Try to hold on, the faith is gone, it's just another sad song [Chorus: x4]  |

		Surrounded by four walls that ain`t so pretty His parents give him love and affection To keep him strong moving in the right direction Living just enough, just enough for the city... His father works some days for fourteen hours And you can bet he barely makes a dollar His mother goes to scrub the floor for many And you`d best believe she hardly gets a penny Living just enough, just enough for the city... His sister`s black but she is sho `nuff pretty Her skirt is short but Lord her legs are sturdy To walk to school she`s got to get up early Her clothes are old but never are they dirty Living just enough, just enough for the city... Her brother`s smart he`s got more sense than many His patience`s long but soon he won`t have any To find a job is like a haystack needle Cause where he lives they don`t use colored people Living just enough, just enough for the city... His hair is long, his feet are hard and gritty He spends his love walking the streets of New York City He`s almost dead from breathing on air pollution He tried to vote but to him there`s no solution Living just enough, just enough for the city... I hope you hear inside my voice of sorrow And that it motivates you to make a better tomorrow This place is cruel no where could be much colder If we don`t change the world will soon be over Living just enough, just enough for the city!

Will this not pass over? [Chorus:] I won't go back to Kikwit Town I won't go back I won't go back to Kikwit Town I won't go back They would not give us my father's body The men in orange suits started gathering 'round They asked the names of all who live here As they threw him down in hole and burned his house down What have we done to deserve this? God's wrath has surely come He lets the devil walk among us He lets death into our homes Where is our deliverance here From this demon loosed upon us? [Chorus] Is it not enough we live in this squalor? Is it not enough these sacrifices we make? Are we not entitled to some mercy On this short journey we take? [Chorus] They said come down and answer all our questions It's best for all if I turn myself in But I know as sure as I walk through that hospital door I will never see daylight again What have we done to deserve this? God's wrath has surely come He lets the devil walk among us He lets death into our homes Where is our deliverance here From this demon loosed upon us?  |

					 Where you gonna go, Where are you gonna hide? You go on leaving out your heart And all it's saying deep inside. I can feel your heart beat You got me all wrong. You don't have to worry You just been lonely too long I know what it means to hide your heart From a long time ago - [Chorus] It keeps you running It keeps you running etc. I know how you feel You know I been there But what you've been keeping to yourself Well you know it just ain't fair Are you gonna worry For the rest of your life Why are you in such a hurry To be lonely one more night? I know what it means to hide your heart From a long time ago -  |

			We were born before the wind 
		Also younger than the sun Ere the bonnie boat was won as we sailed into the mystic Hark, now hear the sailors cry Smell the sea and feel the sky Let your soul and spirit fly into the mystic And when that fog horn blows I will be coming home And when the fog horn blows I want to hear it I don't have to fear it Cause I want to rock your gypsy soul Just like way back in the days of old Then magnificently we will flow into the mystic Come on girl Can you hear it Come on girl Into the mystic And when that fog horn blows you know I will be coming home And when that fog horn blows I got to hear it I don't have to fear it I want to rock your gypsy soul Just like way back in the days of old And together we will flow into the mystic I want to hear it You don't have to fear it I want to rock your gypsy soul Come on girl... Hear the sailors cry Into the mystic  |

		Had a childhood sweetheart We were always hand in hand I was hightop shoes and shirt tails Suzy was in pig tails I know I loved her even then You know my papa disapproved it My mama boohooed it But I told them time and time again "Don't you know I was made to love her Built a world all around her" Yah! Hey, hey, hey She's been my inspiration Showed appreciation For the love I gave her through the years Like a sweet magnolia tree My love blossmed tenderly My life grew sweeter through the years I know that my baby loves me My baby needs me That's why we made it through the years I was made to love her Worship and adore her Hey, hey, hey All through thick and thin Our love just won't end 'Cause I love my baby, love my baby, ah! My baby loves me My baby needs me And I know I ain't going nowhere I was knee high to a chicken When that love bug bit me I had the fever with each passing year Oh, even if the mountain tumbles If this whole world crumbles By her side I'll still be standing there 'Cause I was made to love her I was made to live for her, yeah! Ah, I was made to love her Built my world all around her Hey, hey, hey Oo baby, I was made to please her You know Stevie ain't gonna leave her, no Hey, hey, hey Oo wee baby, my baby loves me My baby needs me Hey, hey, hey Oo my baby loves me....  |
