We've Only Just Begun

We've only just begun to live, white lace and promises
A kiss for luck and we're on our way
Before the rising sun we fly, so many roads to choose
We start out walking and learn to run
And yes, we've just begun.

Sharing horizons that are new to us.
Watching the signs along the way.
Talking it over just the two of us,
Working together day to day, together.

And when the evening comes we smile,
So much of life ahead, we'll find a place where there's room to grow.
And yes we've just begun.

Sharing horizons that are new to us.
Watching the signs along the way.
Talking it over just the two of us,
Working together day to day, together, together.

And when the evening comes we smile,
So much of life ahead, we'll find a place where there's room to grow.
And yes, we've just begun.

Perhaps Love

Perhaps love is like a resting place
A shelter from a storm.
It exists to give you comfort,
It is there to keep you warm.
And in those times of trouble,
When you were most alone
The memories of love will bring you home.

Perhaps love is like a window,
Perhaps an open door.
It invites you to come closer,
It wants to give you more.
And even if you loose yourself,
And don't know what to do,
My memories of love will see you through.

Oh love to some is like a song
To some as strong as steel,
To some a way of living,
To some a way to feel.
And some say love is holding on,
And some say letting go.
And some say love is everything,
And some say they don't know.

Perhaps love is like the ocean,
Full of conflict full of pain.
Like fire when it's cold outside,
Like thunder when it rains.
If I should live forever,
And all my dreams come true
My memories of love will be of you

Always The Children

So many roads and too many voices
The choice is so hard knowing which one to hear
But learning's the key to unlock the potential
Each one is able the message is clear

Chorus:   Always the children, the seeds of our future
                Hope for a better and brighter place to live
                Always the children, they'll lead us tomorrow
                The future starts today, they have so much to give

On the horizon the children are coming
Train them today, show them which way to go
Fill them with knowledge and wisdom to use it
Take time to teach them all that you know

Chorus

Good-bye to you my trusted friends
We've known each other since we were nine and ten
Together we climbed hills and trees
Learnt of love and ABC
Skinned our hearts and skinned our knees
Good-bye my friends it's hard to die
When all the birds are singing in the sky
Now that spring is in the air
Pretty children everywhere 
Think of me and I'll be there.

We had joy
We had fun
We had season in the sun
But the hills and the trees
Like the seasons have all gone

Good-bye Michelle my little one
You gave me love and helped me to the sun
In the time that I was down
You would always come around
Set my feet back to the ground
Good-bye Michelle it's hard to die
When all the birds are singing in the sky 
Now that spring is in the air
Pretty children everywhere
Think of me and I'll be there

We had joy
We had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the theme and the song
Like the seasons have all gone

Good-bye papa please pray for me
I was the black sheep of the family
You tried to teach me right from wrong
So much love, too much song
You'd wonder how I'd get along
Good-bye papa it's hard to die
When all the birds are singing in the sky
Now that spring is in the air 
Pretty flowers everywhere
Think of me and I'll be there.

We had joy
We had fun
We had season in the sun
But the wine and the song
Like the seasons have all gone
All our lives we had fun
We had season in the sun
But the hills and the trees
Like the seasons have all gone

Where Were You
Where were you when the world stopped turning that September day?
Out in the yard with  your wife and children or working on some stage in LA.?
Did you stand there in shock at the sight of that black smoke raising against that blue sky?
Did you shout out in anger and fear for your neighbor or did you just sit down and cry?

Did you weep for the children they lost their dear loved ones and pray for the ones who don't know?
Did you rejoice for the people who walked from the rubble and sob for the ones left below?
Did you burst out in pride for the red, white and blue, the heroes who died just doing what they do?
Did you look up to heaven for some kind of answer and look at yourself and what really matters?

Chorus: I'm just a singer of simple songs, I'm not a real political man
I watch CNN but I'm not sure I can tell you the difference in Iraq and Iran.
But I know Jesus and I talk to God and I remember this from when I was young
faith, hope and love are some good things he gave us and the greatest is love

Where were you when the world stopped turning, that September day?
Teaching a class full of innocent children or driving down the some cold interstate?
Did you feel guilty 'cause you're a survivor?
In a crowded room did you feel alone?
Did you call up your mother and tell her your loved her?
Did you dust off that Bible at home?
Did you open your eyes, hoped it never happened?
Close your eyes and not go to sleep?
Did you notice the sunset for the first time in ages or speak to some stranger on the street?
Did you lay down at night and think of tomorrow?
Go out and buy you a gun?
Did you turn off that violent, old movie you were watching and turn on I love Lucy reruns?
Did you go to a church and hold hands with some stranger?
Stand in line and give your own blood?
Did you just stay home and cling tight to your family?
Thank God you had somebody to love

Chorus (2xs)

The greatest is love...and the greatest is love...
Where were you when the world stopped turning that September day?

- Annie Patriotic Alan Jackson

Before all lands in east or west
I love my native land the bed
With God's best gifts its teeming
No gold nor jewel here are found
But men of noble worth a bound
And eyes of joy are beaming (2xs)

Before all people east or west
I love my noble land the best
A race of noble spirit
A sober mind and generous heart
To virtue, trained yet free from art
They form their inherit (2xs)

To all the world I give my hand
My heart I give my native land
I seek her good her glory
I honor every nations name
Respect their fortune and their fame
But love the land that bore me (2xs)

If I carry the gospel, to the lost near and far
Then i won't stand empty handed 
Before God's judgment bar
But I dare not relax
Till I've done all he ask
Lest I should leave behind 
An unfinished task

Chorus: For you have run the race
              For you have kept the faith
              These words I love to hear my savior say
              When my life on earth is passed
               There's just one thing dear Lord I ask
               Don't let me leave behind
               An unfinished task

When I come to my crossing
I'll be leaving behind
All my earthly possession
But this I won't mind
It will make my heart glad
If I leave all I have
And I don't leave behind
An unfinished task.

Chorus

Hush now my little one
Please don't you cry
Lay your head down
On my shoulder and sigh
Sun's gone away now
And mama will pray
Silence will keep 
All the while you're asleep
I had a little nut tree
 Nothing would it bear
But a silver nutmeg 
And a golden pear

The king of Spain's daughters 
Came to visit me
And all for the sake
Of my little nut tree.

Every Breath You take
Every breath you take
 And every move you make
 Every bond you break, every step you take
 I'll be watching you

 Every single day
 And every word you say
 Every game you play, every night you stay
 I'll be watching you

 Oh, can't you see
 You belong to me?
 How my poor heart aches 
 With every step you take
 Every move you make
 Every vow you break
 Every smile you fake, every claim you stake
 I'll be watching you

 Since you've gone I've been lost without a trace
 I dream at night, I can only see your face
 I look around, but it's you I can't replace
 I feel so cold, and I long for your embrace
 I keep crying baby, baby please, 
 Oh, can't you see
 You belong to me?
 How my poor heart aches 
 With every step you take
 Every move you make
 Every vow you break
 Every smile you fake, every claim you stake
 I'll be watching you
 Every move you make, every step you take
 I'll be watching you
 I'll be watching you
Every breath you take, every move you make, every smile you fake....I'll be watching you
Every single day, every word you say, every game you play.. I'll be watching you...etc

When You Say Nothing At All
It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word, you can light up the dark
Try as I may I could never explain
What I hear when you don't say a thing

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me when ever I fall
You say it best..when you say nothing at all

All day long I can hear people talking out loud
But when you hold me near, you drown out the crowd (the crowd)
Try as they may they can never define
What's been said between your heart and mine

CHORUS 

(You say it best when you say nothing at all
You say it best when you say nothing at all..)

The smile on your face
The truth in your eyes
The touch of your hand
Let's me know that you need me..

CHORUS

(You say it best when you say nothing at all
You say it best when you say nothing at all..)

The smile on your face
The truth in your eyes
The touch of your hand
Let's me know that you need me..

(You say it best when you say nothing at all
You say it best when you say nothing at all..)
