Irish Angel

(Bruce McCabe)

In the fall of the year

She flew across the ocean

To Ireland, the land of her fathers

When we said good-bye a tear was in her eye

I lost her then and there, my Irish angel

The first letter came, she said she loved it there

And now how she wished I was now with her

She wrote it on the hill, in the gentle Irish rain

I saw her in my mind, my Irish angel

------(not sure about this line)

There was no second letter

Just the silence of the storm that fell around me

I let her down I know

The day I let her go

She's found someone else, my Irish angel

When I first saw her, my heart went into spinning

When they speak of love they call it falling

It was like I held my breath until I laid eyes on her again

Too beautiful, she was my Irish angel

When I stole a glance, then too a stolen kiss

I thought I knew the chance that I was taking

In all the days I've known a love as strong as this

And what it was to feel my own heart breaking

So now I raise a glass and then I raise another

One to forget and one to remember

OH I wanted just to dream the way things could have been

If I hadn't lost my Irish angel

Still Rainin

(Bruce McCabe)

Clouds one by one, fill the sky

Just like these tears that fill my eyes

I know by now she aint comin' back

Watch my world slowly fade into black

Look out my window, it's still rainin'

Look out my window it's still rainin'

They say that time heals everything It don't get no better with each passing day

Any hope I had is slowly slipping away

Look out my window, it's still rainin'

Look out my window it's still rainin'

I thought the morning would rescue me

But the rain keeps falling endlessly, endlessly

Sometimes I wonder what'll become of me

There ain't much left of what I used to be

Her love shone on me like the morning light

Now here I am alone again tonight

Look out my window, it's still rainin'

Look out my window, it's still rainin'.

Second Guessing

(David Z, Bruce McCabe)

Second guessin' first impressions

There you go again

Rushing off in all directions

Since I don't know when

All day long you've been building walls

You've building walls all day

Putting ceilings on your feelings Don't you think it's time you quit it

Don't you think it's time time you admit it

Your heart is more worthy of trust

than the thoughts in your mind that sit there gathering dust

Everything you're looking for

You'll know when it's real

You'll know when you've found it

By the way you feel

Writing down your deepest emotions

With your pen in hand

Your piece of paper flew out the window

You watched it try and land

You felt bad as it flew out of sight

A part of your heart alone in the night

All of a sudden you didn't mind it

when you pictured that lonely stranger that would find it

Everything you're looking for

You'll know when it's real

You'll know when you've found it

By the way you feel.

I Am

(Prince, David Z, Levi Seacer, Jr.)

If being in love means waiting around

So you can dance with me

I am, I am

If being in love means follow the leader

Then this will have to be

I am, I am

Baby I am

So in love with you

I am, I am

Gonna get you baby

If it's the last thing I do

I used to think that a pretty face

Meant more than what was inside

I did, I did

If being a good man

means swallowing all my pride

I will, yes I will

Repeat Chorus

I am the one who loves you

I am the one who cares

You could fly me to the moon

If I would find you there

All the riches in this world mean nothing

Without you here

Whoever, Whatever, However, Whenever

You need me I'm always here

Men killing their brothers

Nobody wants to go down alone

In this age of uncertainty

Love's worth more than gold

I'd sleep outside your window

If that would make you see

That I'm the only one for you

And you're the only one for me

Breakin' Me

(Jonny Lang, Kevin Bowe)

Everyday I see your face I wish that I'd stayed

Don't even know what made me run away

It's just the way I play the game

Emotional is not a word I'd use to explain myself

But now you've got me down upon my knees

Baby please take me back

I don't want to be in love

But you're making me

Let me up I've had enough. Girl you're breakin' me

Here I am just half a man standing alone

Felling like I lost my only chance

At happiness when I let you go

I don't want to be alone

Thinkin' bout you girl

I got nothing left in this lonely world

Solo

The first time my heart was ever touched

Was the day I lost your love

I can feel it in my flesh and blood

My sould can only take so much

So there it is

Why can't you give us one more try

You and I could find away to live

If you let me in one more time

I know you lost your faith in me, but I still believe

Can I make you understand, can I make you see

I am desperate for your love and it's breakin' me

Wander This World

(Paul Diethelm, Bruce McCabe)

The tar in the street starts to melt from the heat

And the sweats runnin' down from my hair

I walked 20 miles and I'm dragging my feet

And I'll walk 20 more I don't care

And I'll wander this world, wander this world

Wander this world, wander this world all alone

I'm like a ghost some people can't see

Others drive by and stare

A shadow that drifts by the side of the road

It's like I'm not even there

And I'll wander this world, wander this world

Wander this world, wander this world all alone

Well I've never been part of the game

The life that I live is my own

All that I know is that I was born

To wander this world all alone, all alone

Some people are born with their lives all laid out

And all their success is assured

Some people work hard all their lives for nothin'

They take it and don't say a word

They don't say a word

Sometimes it's like I don't even exist

Even God has lost track of my soul

Why else would he leave me out here like this

To wander this world all alone

And I'll wander this world, wander this world

Wander this world, wander this world all alone

Walking Away

(Jonny Lang, Jerry Lynn Williams)

You can cry

But don't cry for me

I can't take it no more

That's the way it must be

You can't lie

You're way back in

Back into my heart

I won't let it be broken again

I took a tumble

I started to stumble

That's when I fell

Into a love

A thought came from above

I was under your spell

The things that mattered

Were broken and shattered

One by one

I was so sad

But now I'm glad

It's over and over

There's just one more thing

That I want to say

I truly loved you

But now I'm walking away

I put no one above you

That's why I'm walking away

The Levee

(Kevin Bowe)

I have been to Memphis but I couldn't find no peace

My soul is feeling restless and I need some relief

I'm heading for the Delta, see what I can find

I know the river holds the answers that'll ease my worried mind

Take me down to the levee where the women sing

Lay me down like an angel with a broken wing

Take me down to the levee where the river flows

Gon' throw my blues off the levee and let them go

Well, I have been to Natchez, been down to Baton Rouge

But the Delta keeps on callin' me no matter what I do

Chorus

Solo

I'm drivin' through the darkness, down Highway 61

Heading for the crossroads like the ones before me done

Angel Of Mercy

(Bruce McCabe, Michael Henderson)

Angel of mercy you don't need no golden wing

Angel of mercy you don't need no golden wing

The way you came to my rescue

Heaven must be watchin' over me

When the shadows fallin' and the day turns into night

I hear my angel callin' and I can't wait to see the light

Angel of mercy you don't need no golden wing

The way you came down to my rescue

Heaven must be watchin' over me

Sometimes I get a feelin' like a fever comin' over me

Just a touch of my angels hand and I'm right back on my feet

Angel of mercy you don't need no golden wing

The way you came down to my rescue

Heaven must be watchin' over me

Stay with me baby. Come down from the sky

Just like an angel. Take me to paradise

Angel of mercy you don't need no golden wing

The way you came down to my rescue

Heaven must be watchin' over me
