A Little Lovin'

 

Sometimes I’d like to close the door behind me

And throw away the key

Get in my car and leave this world behind me

Set my spirit free

Back to the past

I really wanna go

Moving too fast

Riding down the road

 

When I see the world start turning

Faster than I want it to

In this moment without warning

A little lovin comes shining through

 

Pick up the phone I need an 800 number

To find out who I am

Call the police, a priest or maybe a doctor

Help me make a stand

I’ll pay the price

I really wanna know

It would be nice

To let my feelings show

 

If the moon and stars won’t tell me

How can I find out what’s true

In this moment without warning

A little lovin’ comes shining through

 

And if I lost forever

Everything I’ve learned

I couldn’t ask for better

Moments spent

Waiting for the love I’ve found in you

 

 

 




Only One

 

I give my heart to you only

Just like a river that runs so true

And like a flower that feels the light of the sun

I give to you

A promise meant for you only

 

You are the only one

It’s in my heart every night and day

And even after the songs been sung

You are the only one

 

I give my word to you only

A simple trust like the falling rain

When thunder crashes and leaves your world in the dark

I’ll be with you

And this I say to you only  

No never to be lost or torn apart

Cause knowing what the world would be without

The solid ground I’ve walked with you so far

 

 




Safe in Your Arms

 

It’s the time of the evening

When the day is through

And the world stops revolving round

I find peace in the moment

I come home to you

It’s the love that I feel all around

 

Hold me in your arms tonight

The way you always do

Tell me with your eyes that I’m

Everything to you

 

I just want to be safe in your arms

All through the night

Watching as the clouds move on by past the moon

I just want to love you completely

All through my life

Waiting for the sun to come into our room

 

I awake in the shadows

Find it hard to sleep

Being close to you calms my fears

Knowing nothings for granted

Nothings guaranteed

But this love that I feel right here

 

 




You've Got That Loving Down

 

Tell me baby

I don't know how you do it

Gimmie lovin’

Lovin’ everyday

You give me what I need

To get me through the night

You give me what I believe

Will make everything in my life feel right

 

You got the lovin’ that feels so strong

You got the lovin’ when things go wrong

You got the lovin’ I needed

You got that lovin’ down

You got the lovin’ that shines so bright

When the world doesn't treat me right

You got the lovin’ I needed

You got that lovin’ down

You got that lovin’ down

 

Keep it coming

No one does any better

A fundamental

Feeling good all the time

 

Give a little give a little of the lovin’

That I know I need tonight

Give a little give a little of the lovin’

And tell me its all right

 




Minefield

 

Every day I walk the line with you

Every day I talk but I can't get through

I'm losing again; It’s just the game I'm in

I'm watching every move, every step I take

I just never know, if you're gonna break

I'm a leave you alone, Its just the game I'm in

 

Through a minefield, walking

Through a minefield

Through a minefield with you

 

You're a ticking bomb about to explode

How can you be hot and then so cold?

I'm losing again; it’s just the game I'm in

Well you know I try to turn it around

You just turn your back and leave me on the ground

I'm a leave you alone, its just the game I'm in

 

I know you don't know just how I think and how I feel

I know you don't know, I know you don't know

Just how I feel

 




Listen to the Rain Fall

 

Listen to the rain fall

Here alone I lie awake again

Going over memories

Round and round they go

Inside my head

And colors I remember

The bluest skies were always there in your eyes

But nothing lasts forever

Just like the clouds going by

 

Listen to the rain fall

Falling like tears on my window

Listen to the rain call

Telling me I was a fool

How can I go on this way when

All that I think of is you

I wish I could stop the rain from

Bringing those memories of you

 

Listen to the rain fall

Thought I heard you calling out my name

Knowing that its over

Trying hard to bring you back in vain

I look outside my window

That’s when I know I’m falling just like a stone

And flowing like a river

After the rains have all gone

 




There Goes My Heart

 

Go on and leave me now

Go back where you started from

Looking for another one

Close to your heart

Leave me alone again

To work it out and dream again

Find a way to see again

Here in the Dark

 

I just can’t believe that I’ll never see

See us together

How can I go on when the world for me

Has fallen apart

 

Go on walk out the door

And leave me alone

Think I’m gonna be sad

I know I’m gonna cry

Cause saying goodbye isn’t what I want

Tell me how to get through

And start a new life with somebody else

Oh no I’m letting you go

 

Take me back home again

Kiss me like you always do

Hold me like you wanted to

Love me again

Save me just one more dance

And with flowers and romance

Tell me that there’s still a chance

But don’t let me go

 

Gone are the days that we

Came to be together

We go our separate ways

Make a new start

It’s just the memories

That lives inside forever

They’ll never fade away

Here in my heart

 




Lucky One

 

It doesn’t matter if I’m number one

I can’t lose when I’m around you

And if I never have the chance to run

I’d be the lucky one who found you

 

If I lose one hundred times

Never cross the finish line

If I never claim the prize

I’d be the lucky one who loved you

 

When I’m with you I hold the winning hand

The cards are always in my favor

I make a bet on you and take a stand

I’ll always be the lucky player

 

If I lose one hundred times

Never cross the finish line

If I never claim the prize

I’d be the lucky one who loved you

 

You’ve given me a chance to spin

A chance to win your heart

I knew if I could just be smart

And hold my cards I’d win

 

If I lose one hundred times

Never cross the finish line

If I never claim the prize

I’d be the lucky one who loved you

 




Here

 

We’ve been together so long

You are my friend and lover

Another season goes on

When we’re together

When we’re together

 

Here

Living with you right here

All through the years

Here

Living with you right here

 

We’ve built a good foundation

We wish each other happiness

No need for explanation

When we’re together

When we’re together

 

I promise to be there when the sun doesn’t shine

Through sickness and sorrow

You’ve given me your heart and I’ve given you mine

Today and tomorrow

I’m staring at the future I see in your eyes

I see it’s forever

 




The Best Things in Life Are Free

 

Baby I been looking at you

And the little things that you do

Oh it’s so easy to see

The best things in life are free

When I'm walking with you in the sun

And I'm holding you close to me

When we're laughing and having fun

You're everything I need

 

I'm thinking 'bout things

Like loving you each day

And thinking 'bout the

Ordinary things we say

That means so much to me each day

Knowing that you're here with me

The best things in life are free

 

I don't need no fancy diamond ring

I can get along without those things

Cause I got a love that gives to me

The best things in life are free

When I look and see the stars at night

I get a feeling coming over me

Everything is gonna be all right

You're everything I need

 

I believe I'm doing I'm doing all right

I believe I'm doing I'm doing all right

It doesn't cost a whole lot more

To notice what you've missed before

And find the love that you've been waiting for
