You're making lists today of all the things you haven't done yet You're driving everyone crazy, are you having any fun yet Mother says you oughta get married Shrink says here's a little blue pill Too young for your mid-life crisis Mirror says you're over the h...

Don't want to need the way I need you Don't want to feel like this Holding back all the words but not the kiss For the moment my heart begins to murmur The moment of truth arrives And I know you'll shake your head and say goodbye I know the price of this to m...

Out on the floor the couples are swaying To "One Faded Love" on the jukebox tonight You slide in your coins and the music keeps playing A slow country dance on a Saturday night Sweethearts in love and others just lonely Searching for someone to waltz with ton...

Tonight the brightest moon in a hundred years Floods the streets of Rome and I am standing here Wondering where the ghosts of antiquity Hide on nights like this once a century Where do shadows fall when there's only light Why'd you follow me halfway 'round the...

She used to watch him from afar She used to dream about him And she'd wish upon a star That one day he'd want her for his own Throw caution to the wind And with a grin He'd take her home She's something of a dreamer Something of a fool Something of a heartbre...

All of our dreams are laid out and measured Arrows and pins and a rainbow of threads Like hope on a string, sewn into the linings For the courage to face the unknown ahead My soul companion Out in the world somewhere My soul companion I’ll meet you the...

Spring and what's left of the hippies return from old rooming houses and Mexico. More letters, more journals, more poems to burn; Real heat at last. At last my words glow. My friend Jim just broke up his band, the guys all have jobs and the nights got too lon...

Still, still, still, One can hear the falling snow. For all is hushed, The world is sleeping, Holy Star its vigil keeping. Still, still, still, One can hear the falling snow. Sleep, sleep, sleep, 'Tis the eve of our Saviour's birth. The night is peaceful all...

When we were young, we pledged allegiance every morning of our lives The classroom rang with children's voices under teacher's watchful eye We learned about the world around us at our desks and at dinnertime Reminded of the starving children, we cleaned our pl...

Some people need to know what to expect Need to keep control, need to keep one step Ahead of every chance, as if chance decides Who it's gonna pass, who it will reward They don't understand, chances don't keep score They just find us when we're there to find...

I am waiting with a ticket with a carry-on People everywhere on their way, at a run Then I see you from a distance Light years later at fate's insistence Old wounds, sad scenes, love lost, bad dreams Heartache, old scars, old walls, these are Swept away, swep...

Fare thee well My own true love Farewell for a while Im going away But I'll be back Though I go ten thousand miles Ten thousand miles My own true love Ten thousand miles or more The rocks may melt And the seas may burn If I should not return Oh dont you see...

I have a heart that's proud you bet I have a mind that won't forget And I have arms that are strong and yet Tender when they wanna to be Well you can be the will that finds the way And you can be the one who saves the day But show me tender when it's time to s...

Grateful for each hand we hold Gathered round this table. From far and near we travel home, Blessed that we are able. Grateful for this sheltered place With light in every window, Saying "welcome, welcome, share this feast Come in away from sorrow." Father,...

I'm not made of stone, I'm not made of glass I've been alone, every one has I've learned to forgive what I'm not I just try to live with what I've got Maybe I've got what you need If you need something that not only feels right Something that's based on a rea...

The past comes upon you like smoke on the air You can smell it and find yourself gone To a place that you lived without worry or care Isn't that where we all once came from Green leaves and tall trees and stars overhead And the sound of the world through the...

Every heart has got a story About love holding out a lure Baby, when you've been that lonely You just want a cure Fool you once, you are forgiven Fool you twice, you're just a fool You fear the futures all been written By the past, and what didn't last All t...

Well it's a strange old game you learn it slow One step forward and it's back you go You're standing on the throttle You're standing on the brake In the groove 'til you make a mistake Sometimes you're the windshield Sometimes you're the bug Sometimes it all c...

Deep in your blood or a voice in your head On a dark lonesome highway It finds you instead So certain it knows you, you can't turn away Something or someone has found you today Genius or Jesus, maybe he's seen us But who would believe us I can't really say Wh...
