Heaven knows no frontiers
Lyrics and music by Jimmy McCarthy
If life is a river and your heart is a boat
And just like a water baby, born to float,
And if life is a wild wind that blows way on high,
And your heart is Amelia dying to fly,
Heaven knows no frontiers and I've seen heaven in your eyes
And if life is a bar room in which we must wait,
'round the man with his fingers on the ivory gates,
Where we sing until dawn of our fears and our fates,
And we stack all the dead men in self addressed crates,
In your eyes faint as the singing of a lark,
That somehow this black night,
Feels warmer for the spark,
Warmer for the spark,
To hold us 'til the day,
When fear will lose its grip,
And heaven has its way,
Heaven knows no frontiers,
And I've seen heaven in your eyes
If your life is a rough bed of brambles and nails,
And your spirit's a slave to man's whips and man's jails,
Where you thirst and you hunger for justice and right,
And your heart is a pure flame of man's constant night,
In your eyes faint as the singing of a lark,
That somehow this black night,
Feels warmer for the spark,
Warmer for the spark,
To hold us 'til the day when fear will lose its grip,
And heaven has its way,
And heaven has its way,
When all will harmonise,
And know what's in our hearts,
The dream will realise
Heaven knows no frontiers,
And I've seen heaven in your eyes,
Heaven knows no frontiers,
And I've seen heaven in your eyes
Star by Bryan Adams
What cha wanna be when you grow up,
What cha gonna do when your time is up,
What cha gonna say when things go wrong,
What cha wanna do when you're on your own?
There's a road, long and winding,
The lights are blindin',
But it gets there.
Don't give up, don't look back,
There's a silver linin',
It's out there somewhere.
Everybody wants an answer,
Everybody needs a friend,
We all need a shinin' star on which we can depend,
'N'so tonight we're gonna wish upon a star
We never wished upon before.
To find what you're lookin' for.
There'll be times in your life
Ya, when you'd be dancin'n'shit,
But you ain't gettin' in,
But don't get disillusioned, no, don't expect too much,
'Cause if what you have is all you can get,
Just keep on tryin', it just ain't happened yet.
Everybody wants to be a winner,
Everybody has a dream,
We all need a shinin' star when things ain't what they seem.
So tonight we're gonna wish upon a star
We never wished upon before,
Gotta get where you headed for.
Everybody wants some kindness,
Everybody needs a break,
We all need a shinin' star when things get hard to take.
So tonight we're gonna wish upon a star
We never wished upon before.
Yeah, tonight we're gonna wish upon a star
We never wished upon before.
Gonna find what you're lookin' for.
Don't get disillusioned, no, don't expect too much
Yearbook by Hanson
Dear Amy, see you in September
Hope that you remember me next year
Hey Jamie, you've been a great friend to me
I hope that I'll still see you around here
'Cause I'm looking through the yearbook then I find that empty space
There's a name without a picture, but I can't forget his face
Tell me where did he go, I want to know
Where did Johnny go?
It says, "Picture unavailable" right here
More than sad, it makes me mad to know somebody knows
There's a lying in your silence. Tell me where did Johnny go?
Poor Katie, she won't even speak his name
None of us will ever be the same
It's quiet in the halls, but I hear echoing off the walls.
The rumors of Johnny's mystery
'Cause I'm looking through the yearbook then I find that empty space
No he never wrote me nothing, but I can't forget his face
Ohhh. There's a lying in your silence. Tell me where did Johnny go?
Sometimes I think I hear him calling out my name
Sometimes I wonder if maybe we're to blame
It's been a year now and a lot of things have changed
But I keep thinking about Johnny. I keep turning to that page.
Where did he go I want to know, Where did he go I want to know?
Ohhh. There's a lying in your silence. Tell me where did Johnny go?
