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?

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..)
