America | Valentine | /a/america/valentine_20007091.html | Well, she said all along, I'm her one
A little fingernail polish, chewin' gum
Her round the world heart made of platinum, that's right
She looks like a China doll baby, especially in white
A tropicana flower in the candlelight
She turned into a pumpkin pie, sweet kiss at midnight
She moves, oh so fine
She's like a perfect valentine
She's not one to fall in love
She's too high on the stars above at night
She wants to be your red-hot mama, all alone
She dances with the boys on the telephone
She makes a lotta noise in the quiet zone at night
Yeah, you talk about a party at the beach, ain't that grand
She just took a raincheck with another man
Who lay on the deck of his catamaran some night
She moves, oh so fine
She's like a perfect valentine
She's not one to fall in love
She's too high on the stars above at night
Well, I can't tell you much, but what I know (what I know)
You can't take her with you when it's time to go
'Cause she knows where it's at with a Romeo, you'll see
She moves, oh so fine
She's like a perfect valentine
She's not one to fall in love
She's too high on the stars above at night
She moves
Just like a perfect valentine
She's not one to fall in love
She's too high on the stars above at night

Amy Grant | A Christmas To Remember | /a/amy+grant/a+christmas+to+remember_20007596.html | Twinkling lights
A chill is in the air
And carols everywhere
Close your eyes, it's almost here
Candles and cards
And favorite movie scenes
The smell of evergreen
As special as it's always been
And I have a dream or two
Maybe they will come true
[Chorus:]
Setting our hopes on a big snow tonight
We'll wake up to a world of white
It's gonna be a christmas to remember
Light up the fire, play some Nat King Cole
Always sentimental and don't you know that
It's gonna be a Christmas to remember
I know it's true
Time doesn't stand still
Many things can change
But we know some things never will
The memories we share
The songs we always sing
The mystery of life
The hopefulness this season brings
And I have a dream or two
Maybe they will come true
[Chorus:]

Amy Grant | Abide With Me | /a/amy+grant/abide+with+me_20708448.html | Abide with me, fast falls the eventide
The darkenss deepens, Lord, with me abide
When other helpers fail, and comforts flee
Help of the helpless, O abide with me
I need Thy presence every passing hour
What but Thy grace can foil the tempter's power?
Who like Thyself my guide and stay can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, o abide with me
Abide, with me
Abide, abide with me
I fear no foe with Thee at hand to bless
Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness
Where is death's sting? Where, grave, Thy victory?
I triumph still if Thou abide with me
Abide , with me
Abide, abide with me
Abide, with me
Abide, abide with me

Amy Grant | After The Fire | /a/amy+grant/after+the+fire_10010195.html | After the fire is over
After the ashes cool
After the smoke is blown away
I will be is for you
After the stillness finds you
After the winds of change
All that is good and true between us
This will remain the same
Slowly, slowly
We turn the pages of life
Growing, knowing
It comes at quite a price
After the fire is over
After the ashes cool
After the smoke is blown away
I will be here for you
After your time of wondering
Along this lonely road
There will be many voices calling
Mine will say welcome home
Slowly, slowly
We turn the pages of life
Growing, knowing
It comes at quite a price
After the fire is over
After the ash is cool
After the smoke is blown away
I will be here for you
I will be here for you

Amy Grant | Ageless Medley | /a/amy+grant/ageless+medley_20007735.html | Are you living in an old man's rubble?
Listening to the father of lies?
If you are then you're headed for trouble.
Listen too long, you'll eventually die.
Too late for walking in the middle,
Too late to try.
And it's too late for sitting in the balance,
No more middle line.
Are you puzzled by the way that you're behaving?
You wonder why you do the things you do?
Are you troubled by your lack of resistance?
It feels like something's got a hold on you.
Are you living in an old man's rubble?
Listening to the father of lies?
If you are then you're headed for trouble.
If you listen too long, you'll eventually die.
When I'm losing my sense of direction,
And I'm needing some strength and protection,
Walking away with You.
I go walking away with You, and when I,
When I think I can't stand any longer,
And I'm crying for someone that's stronger,
Walking away with You.
I go walking away with You.
El Shaddai, El Shaddai,
El-Elyon na Adonai,
Age to age, You're still the same,
By the power of the name.
El Shaddai, El Shaddai,
Erkamka na Adonai,
I will praise and lift You high,
El Shaddai.
I'm gonna fly.
No one knows where,
But I'm gonna fly.
I'm lighter than air.
And I'm gonna fly.
No one knows where,
But I'm gonna fly,
And soar through the air.
'Cause I have felt for the first time,
I can be myself,
No more faces to hide behind,
Just a smile,
And a dream that's mine.
Even if I am
The only one,
Who wants to fly....
I may not be every mother's dream for her little girl,
And my face may not grace the mind of everyone in the world.
But that's all right, as long as I can have one wish I pray:
When people look inside my life, I want to hear them say,
She's got her father's eyes.
Her father's eyes.
Her father's eyes, ya know.
Just like my father's eyes.... (Sing, sing, sing!)
(Sing, sing, sing!)
(Sing, sing, sing!)
Sing your praise to the Lord,
Come on everybody,
Stand up and sing... One more
Hallelujah,
Give your praise to the Lord,
I can never tell you,
Just how much good... That it's
Gonna do ya,
Just to sing, sing, sing....
Come on, sii-hii-yiing!
You know you really gotta sii-hii-yiing!
Come on, sii-hii-yiing! (Sing, sing, sing!)
I have decided,
I'm gonna live like I believer,
Turn my back on the deceiver.
I'm gonna live what I believe.
I have decided,
Being good is just a fable,
I just can't 'cause I'm not able.
I'm gonna leave it to the Lord.
Sing your praise to the Lord,
Come on everybody,
Stand up and sing... One more
Hallelujah,
Give your praise to the Lord,
I can never tell you,
Just how much good... That it's
Gonna do ya,
Just to sing, sing, sing.
Come on, sii-hii-yiing,
We've all gotta sii-hii-yiiiiiing!
Come on, sing, sing, sing!

Amy Grant | All I Ever Have To Be | /a/amy+grant/all+i+ever+have+to+be_20007703.html | When the weight of all my dreams
Is resting heavy on my head
And the thoughtful words of help and hope
Have all been nicely said
But I'm still hurting, wondering if I'll ever be the one
I think I am--I think I am.
Then you gently re-remind me
That You've made me from the first
And the more I try to be the best
The more I get the worst.
And I realize the good in me is only there because of who
You are, who You are.
And all I ever have to be is what
You've made me
Any more or less would be a step out of Your plan
As you daily recreate me help me always keep in mind
That I only have to do what I can find
And all I ever have to be
All I have to be
All I ever have to be is what You've made me

Amy Grant | Baby Baby | /a/amy+grant/baby+baby_20007643.html | Baby, baby
I'm taken with the notion
To love you with the sweetest of devotion
Baby, baby
My tender love will flow from
The bluest sky to the deepest ocean
Stop for a minute
Baby, I'm so glad you're mine, yeah
You're mine

The birds above a' singing you a chorus

And ever since the day you put my heart in motion
Baby I realize that there's just no getting over you
Baby, baby
In any kind of weather
I'm here for you always and forever
Baby, baby
No muscle man could sever
My love for you is true and it will never
Stop for a minute
Baby, they're so glad you're mine
And ever since the day you put my heart in motion
Baby I realize that there's just no getting over you
And ever since the day you put my heart in motion
Baby I realize that there's just no getting over you
Over you
Baby, baby
Always and forever
Baby I'm so glad that
Here for you baby
So glad you're mine
Baby I'm so glad that
When I think about you it makes me smile
Baby, baby be mine

Don't stop giving love
Don't stop, no
Baby I'm so glad that you're mine
Baby I'm so glad
Baby I'm so glad that
When I think about you it makes me smile

Amy Grant | Beautiful Music | /a/amy+grant/beautiful+music_20007617.html | Once my life had no direction, I was lost as could be
I was caught in a whirlpool, spinning around in misery
I needed a friend, you took me in and you touched my heart
With your song of love you gave me a brand new start
Now there's beautiful music flowin' on through me just like you said
Angels singin', joy bells ringing inside my head
Since you came inside me, now I'm lost inside your love
You gave me just enough to make me hunger for more of you
Now I'm hooked on your lovin' and I don't want to break loose
With my heart in my hand, I'm yours to command, do what you want me to
Just never let me go, Lord, I'm so in love with you
Now there's beautiful music flowin' on through me just like you said
Angels singin', joy bells ringin' inside my head
Since you came inside me, now I'm lost inside your love
Beautiful music flowin' on through me just like you said
Angels singin', joy bells ringin' inside my head
Beautiful music flowin' on through me just like you said
Angels singin', joy bells ringin' inside my head

Amy Grant | Christmas Can't Be Very Far Away | /a/amy+grant/christmas+cant+be+very+far+away_20007598.html | Little bits of heaven
Floating gently by the window
Soon this dirty city will be
Covered with a new snow
Let's put on our winter boots
Go outside and play
Christmas can't be very far away
Weather girl says "bundle up"
It's gonna be a cold one
I'll put on my wooly hat
You'll wear your dad's old Stetson
Pretty lights are everywhere
Shining night and day
Christams can't be very far away
Let's take a walk downtown and
Go dream shopping in the mall
The kids can do the Santa thing
Photographs and all
We'll get the biggest tree this year
And trim it to the top
And spend a whole lot more
Than what we've got
But so what
Come next spring
I know we will be
Ready for the sunshine
Right now throwin' snowballs
At each other's such a fun time
Kids will think we're crazy
For awhile and that's okay
Christmas can't be very far away
Christmas can't be very far away

Amy Grant | Christmas Lullaby | /a/amy+grant/christmas+lullaby_20007599.html | Are you far away from home
This dark and lonely night
Tell me what best would help
To ease your mind
Someone to give
Direction for this unfamiliar road
Or one who says, "Follow me and I
Will lead you home. "
How beautiful
How precious
The Savior of all
To love so
Completely
The loneliest soul
How gently
How tenderly
He says to one and all,
"Child you can follow Me an
I will lead you home
Trust Me and follow Me
And I will lead you home. "
Be near me, Lord Jesus
I ask Thee to stay
Close by me forever
And love me I pray
Bless all the dear children
In Thy tender care
And take us to Heaven
To live with Thee there
Take us to Heaven
To live with Thee there

Amy Grant | Do You Remember The Time | /a/amy+grant/do+you+remember+the+time_10010110.html | Do you remember the time your heart was moved to tears?
Can you look back on the moment after all these years?
On the moment love broke through and heaven seemed so near
Do you remember the time your heart was moved to tears?
Do you remember the day you first let Jesus in?
How he gently and tenderely washed away your sin
Don't you know that He still cares the way He did back then?
Do you remember the day you first let Jesus in?
Keep holdin' on
Never letting go
We're not far
from the end of the road
Keep holdin' on
Never letting go
We're not far
from the end of the road
In a moment love broke through heaven and heaven seemed so near
Do you remember the moment your heart was moved to tears?
Do you remember the time your heart was moved to tears?

Amy Grant | Fill Me With Your Love | /a/amy+grant/fill+me+with+your+love_20007736.html | But there are so many
Who don't know the reason
Their lives are wasting away
Just souls without purpose
They wonder in darkness
Without a thought for the day
Well, I'm no Savior
I'm just a window
Through which Your sweet love light can shine
So clean out the corners of my darkened pane
And fill me with Your love again
Fill me with Your love again
Fill me with Your love again
I open my heart and soul for you to enter me
And fill me with Your love again
Fill me with Your love again
Fill me with Your love again
I open my heart and soul for you to enter me

Down a street far away
And see a face in the crowd and smile
Knowing how you made me laugh
Hearing sweet echoes of you from the past
I will remember you.
Look in my eyes while you're near
Tell me what's happening here
See that I don't want to say good-bye
Our love is frozen in time
I'll be your champion and you will be mine
I will remember
I will remember you.
Later on
When this fire is an ember
Later on
When the night's not so tender
Given time
Though it's hard to remember darlin'
I will be holding
I'll still be holding to you
So many years come and gone
And yet the memory is strong
One word we never could learn
Good-bye
True love is frozen in time
I'll be your champion and you'll be mine
I will remember you
So please remember
I will remember you
I will remember you
I will remember you
I will remember you.

Amy Grant | If You Have To Go Away | /a/amy+grant/if+you+have+to+go+away_20007682.html | When I was a younger
I used to dream a lot
Staring into my coffee
About how you'd love me
And write me poetry
And want to be with me, yeah
Well, momma done told me
You might wander far, yeah
But nobody warned me
The road would own your heart
And so I'm saying
If you have to go away
I will be waiting by the phone
And if you have to go away
I'll put your records on
Pretend you're still at home
Now that I'm older
I sit at home a lot
With the kid we've got, yeah
The radio's playing
He really loves his wife
I hear the D.J. saying
Well momma done told me
You might wander far, oh
As long as you hold me
More than you hold that guitar
I'll keep on saying
If you have to go away
I'll leave your shoes beside the bed
And if you have to go away
I'll want to be with you
I'll be with me instead
If you have to go away
I won't be sleeping very well
But if you have to go away
I'll be loving you
Till it's cold in hell
Maybe you'll write me this time
Maybe you'll call on a static line
Saying don't you ever worry your pretty mind
Cause you and me are gonna be fine
And so I'm saying
If you have to go away
I will be waiting by the phone
And if you have to go away
I'll put your records on
Pretend you're still at home
If you have to go away
I'll leave your shoes beside the bed
And if you have to go away
I'll want to be with you
I'll be with me instead
If you have to go away
I won't be sleeping very well
But if you have to go away
I'll be loving you
I'll be loving you
If you have to go away

Amy Grant | It's Not A Song | /a/amy+grant/its+not+a+song_20007717.html | Day turns to night, and I turn into bed.
Can't get to sleep, something's in my head.
Pacing the floor, I try to force a rhyme.
Why do I fear this time?
[Chorus]
It's not a song till it touches your heart.
It's not a song till it tears you apart.
After what's left of what's right and what's wrong,
Till it gets through to you,
It's not a song.
Now close your eyes, look into your hand.
What do you see?
Life is our song, to give and learn to take.
Time will not wait.
Oh, won't you please come dance,
While the song's still playing,
Won't be long till the silence falls.
[Chorus: x4]

Amy Grant | Jehovah | /a/amy+grant/jehovah_20007718.html | Consider the lilies of the field
Solomon dressed in royal robes, has not the worth of them
Consider the lilies of the field
He takes after each and every need, leave all your cares behind
Seek him and you will find Your Father loves you so
Consider the creatures of the air
For all of the diamonds in all the earth have not the wealth of them
Consider the creatures of the air
Jehovah loves them with tender hand, He knows your every care
His touch is always there to see you through the night
And Jehovah I love You so
And Jesus I want You to know
All You've done for me to set me free
I'll never let You go
And Jehovah I love You so
And Jesus I want You to know
All You've done for me to set me free
I'll never let You go
Consider the lilies of the field
For how much more does He love His own? If Yaweh cares for them
Consider the creatures of the air
He takes after each and every need
If we ask Him for bread, will He give us a stone?
Jehovah loves His own
And Jehovah I love You so
And Jesus I want You to know
All You've done for me to set me free
I'll never let You go
And Jehovah I love You so
And Jesus I want You to know
All You've done for me to set me free

Amy Grant | Mountain Top | /a/amy+grant/mountain+top_20007623.html | I love to sing and I love to pray
Worship the Lord most every day
I go to the temple and I just want to stay
To hide from the hustle of the world and its ways
And I'd love to live on a mountain top
Fellowshipping with the Lord
I'd love to stand on a mountain top
'Cause I love to feel my spirit soar
But I've got to come down from that mountain top
To the people in the valley below
Or they'll never know that they can go
To the mountain of the Lord
Now praising the Father is a good thing to do
To worship the trinity in spirit and truth
But if we worshiped all of the time
There would be no one to lead the blind
But I'd love to live on a mountain top
Fellowshipping with the Lord
I'd love to stand on a mountain top
'Cause I love to feel my spirit soar
But I've got to come down from that mountain top
To the people in the valley below
Or they'll never know that they can go
To the mountain of the Lord
Now I am not saying that worship is wrong
But worship is more than just singin' a song
It's all that you say and everything that you do
It's letting his spirit live through you
Still I'd love to live on a mountain top
Fellowshipping with the Lord
I'd love to stand on a mountain top
'Cause I love to feel my spirit soar
But I've got to come down from that mountain top
To the people in the valley below
Or they'll never know that they can go
To the mountain of the Lord

Amy Grant | Nobody Home | /a/amy+grant/nobody+home_20007637.html | Main street U.S.A boarded up and dry
Knowin' what once was here just makes me want to cry
Used to be the favorite place
Now what remains are memories even time cannot erase
Old man Johnson's store, where we grew up too fast
All that remains today are echoes from the past
Used to be a boomin' town
All that's left is either broken up or broken down
Singing, oh ah, oh ah, oh ah, oh
Where we used to belong
There ain't nobody home
Said, oh ah, oh ah, oh ah, oh
You can knock all you want
But, ain't nobody home
Packed up, moved away, runnin' from the past
Leaving behind the dusty dreams and broken glass
Used to be a busy town
Now, everybody passes through, but they don't stick around
(Chorus)
Was a newsstand on the corner
Right next to the barber shop
And down the street there
That's where all the kids would stop
And they would tease the neighbor's bulldog
Laugh and run away
Now, there's no one left who knows the truth in what you say
(Chorus)
(Final Chorus)

Amy Grant | Not Giving Up | /a/amy+grant/not+giving+up_21060089.html | If you think you're gonna fail
Well, you're probably gonna fail
So tell me, what was all the dreaming for?
And if you think you're gonna lose
Well, you're probably gonna lose
So what's the point in trying anymore?
What you're looking for, you'll find
It happens every time
I'm not giving up,
Not giving up on you
You can say you've had enough
But I won't stop calling,
I'm not giving up,
Not giving up on you
Not giving up on you
When your fragile heart is breaking
And your confidence is shaken
I can tell you that we've all been there before
The first step is hard to take
But it's a choice you gotta make
When life is waiting through that open door
I wish that you could see
The way you look to me
I'm not giving up,
Not giving up on you
You can say you've had enough
But I won't stop calling,
I'm not giving up,
Not giving up on you
Not giving up on you
Oh, not so long ago,
You pulled me through
So I'm not giving up,
Not giving up on you
Even if the rain comes down
And your sky is falling
I'm not giving up,
Not giving up on you
You can say you've had enough
But I won't stop calling,
I'm not giving up,
Not giving up on you
You know we can work this out
If we just keep talking
I'm not giving up,
Not giving up on you
Not giving up on you
'Cause is you think you have a chance

Amy Grant | Nothing Is Beyond You | /a/amy+grant/nothing+is+beyond+you_20521017.html | Where could I go, where could I run
Even if I found the strength to fly
And if I rose on the wings of the dawn
And crashed through the corner of the sky
If I sailed past the edge of the sea
Even if I made my bed in Hell
Still there You would find me
'Cause nothing is beyond You
You stand beyond the reach
Of our vain imaginations
Our misguided piety
The heavens stretch to hold You
And deep cries out to deep
Singing that nothing is beyond You
Nothing is beyond You
Time cannot contain You
You fill eternity
Sin can never stain You
Death has lost its sting
And I cannot explain the way You came to love me
Except to say that nothing is beyond You
Nothing is beyond You
If I should shrink back from the light
So I can sink into the dark
If I take cover and I close my eyes
Even then You would see my heart
And You'd cut through all my pain and rage
The darkness is not dark to You
And night's as bright as day
Nothing is beyond You
You stand beyond the reach
Of our vain imaginations
Our misguided piety
The heavens stretch to hold You
And deep cries out to deep
Singing that nothing is beyond You
Nothing is beyond You
And time cannot contain You
You fill eternity
Sin can never stain You
And death has lost its sting
And I cannot explain the way You came to love me
Except to say that nothing is beyond You
Nothing is beyond You
Nothing is beyond You

Amy Grant | O Little Town | /a/amy+grant/o+little+town_20007591.html | O little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by
Yet in thy dark streets shineth
The everlasting light
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight
How silently, how silently
The wondrous gift is given
So God imparts to human hearts
The blessings of His heaven
We hear the Christmas angels
The great glad tidings tell
O come to us, abide with us
Our Lord Emmanuel
No ear may hear his coming
But in this world of sin
Where meek souls will receive Him
Still the dear Christ enters in.

Amy Grant | O Love That Will Not Let Me Go | /a/amy+grant/o+love+that+will+not+let+me+go_20708543.html | O love that will not let me go
I rest my weary soul in thee
I give thee back the life I owe
That in thine ocean depths its flow
My richer, fuller be
O light that followest all my way
I yield my flickering torch to thee
My heart restores its borrowed ray
That in thy sunshines glow its day
May brighter, fairer be
O joy you seek me through the pain
I cannot close my heart to thee
I trace the rainbow through the rain
And feel the promise is not vain
Then morn shall tearless be

In lowly paths of service free
Tell me Thy secret, help me hear
The strain of toil, the fret of care
Teach me Thy patience, still with Thee
In closer, dearer company
In work that keeps faith sweet and strong
In truth that triumphs over wrong
O Master let me walk with Thee
In closer, dearer company
O Master let me walk with Thee
Let me walk with Thee
In hope that sends a shining ray
Far down the future's broadening way
In peace that only Thou canst give
With Thee, O Master, let me live

Amy Grant | O Sacred Head | /a/amy+grant/o+sacred+head_20007700.html | O sacred head now wounded
With grief and shame way down,
Now scornfully surrounded
With thorns thine only crown,
How art thou pale with anguish,
With sore abuse and scorn.
How does that visage languish,
Which once was bright as morn.
What language shall i borrow
To thank thee dearest man?
For this, thy dying sorrow,
Thy pity without end.
O make me thine forever,
And should i fainting be,
Lord, let me never, ever
Outlive my love to thee.

Amy Grant | Old Man's Rubble | /a/amy+grant/old+mans+rubble_20007624.html | Are you living in an old man's rubble
Are you listenin' to the father of lies
Are you walking' with unnecessary burdens
Are you trying to take them upon yourself
If you are then you're living in bondage
And you know that's bad for your spiritual health
And are you trying to live by your emotions
Are you puttin' your faith in what you feel and see
Then you're living just to satisfy your passions
And you better be careful, 'cause you're being deceived
Are you living in an old man's rubble
Are you listenin' to the father of lies

If you are then you're headed for trouble
If you listen too long, you'll eventually die
Are you puzzled by the way that you're behavin'
Do you wonder why you do the things you do
And are you troubled by your lack of resistance
Do you fell that something's got a hold on you
Well, deep within' you there's a spiritual battle
There's a voice of the darkness and the voice of the light
And just by listening you've made a decision
'Cause the voice you hear is gonna' win the fight
Are you living in an old man's rubble
Are you listenin' to the father of lies
If you are then you're headed for trouble
If you listen too long, you'll eventually die
If you're living as a new creation
If you're listening to the Father of light
Then you're living in a mighty fortress
And you're gonna' be clothed in power and might

And you're gonna' be clothed in power and might

Amy Grant | Out In The Open | /a/amy+grant/out+in+the+open_10010185.html | They were the sweetest words I'd ever heard
My heart could barely take it in
Like water offered to the lips
Of a tired and thirsty man
'cause it's a tangled web of woven
I don't know all the reasons
But it amazes me to wake up
To your mercy every morning
So I'm standing here spinning around
In the fields of freedom
And I'm still alive and reaching out
And I can feel the healing
'cause you say
Come on out come on out

Out in the open

Ready and waiting

For the sake of never making waves I
Kept my secrets to myself
And no one ever really knew the
Darker shadows of my heart
But I will be a witness
That there's nothing in me dark enough
The power of forgiveness
Cannot resuce from the deep
So I'm standing here spinning around
In the fields of freedom
And I'm still alive and reaching out
And I can feel the healing
And you say
Come on out come out

Amy Grant | Santa's Reindeer Ride | /a/amy+grant/santas+reindeer+ride_20283435.html | We've got our little fingers workin' hard
On the trains and dolls and cars
Hurryin' 'cause Santa's a-waitin'
Soldiers marchin' out the door
Carryin' the toys galore
For Santa's reindeer ride
This is more than just another reindeer ride
Not a practice run in July
We've got to load up all the festive gear
Peace, and hope, and yuletide cheer
For Santa's reindeer ride
Polish the runners, shine Rudolph's nose
Tighten the harness, brush off the snow
We'd love to sing our little working songs,
Wish that we could tag along
Just to see the children's faces
Tonight the world is filled with joy,
Deeper than the games and toys
It's time to load up the sleigh.
Tonight the world is filled with joy,
Deeper than the games and toys
It's time to load up the sleigh. (It's time to load up the sleigh).

Amy Grant | So Glad | /a/amy+grant/so+glad_20007711.html | I had laid some mighty plans
Thought I held them in my hands
Then my world began to crumble all away I tried to build it back again
I couldn't bear to see it end
How I hurt to know You wanted it that way.
(Chorus)
And I'm so glad, glad to find the reason
That I'm happy-sad that
You've torn it all away
And I'm so glad, though it hurts to know I'm leaving Everything I ever thought
that I would be
Once I held it in my hand
It was a kingdom made of sand
But now you've blown it all away
I can't believe that I can say that I'm glad.
Long before my plans were made I know a master plan was laid
With a power that superceded my control
And if that truth could pierce my heart I wouldn't wander from the start
Trying desperately to make it on my own.
(Chorus)

I would be Thine and Thine alone
And this the prayer my lips are bringing
Lord, let in me Thy will be done
[Chorus]
Sweet will of God, still fold me closer
Til I am wholly lost in Thee
Sweet will of God, still fold me closer
Til I am wholly lost in Thee
I'm tired of sin, footsore and weary
The darksome path hath dreary grown
But now a light has ris'n to cheer me
I find in Thee my Star, my Sun
[Chorus]
Thy precious will, O conqu'ring Savior
Doth now embrace and compass me
The storms have ceased, my peace a river
My soul a prisoned bird set free

Amy Grant | The Power | /a/amy+grant/the+power_20007676.html | A king is crying from his throne
He had a queen but now she's gone
What is this magic that we seek
The mighty strong turn mighty weak
Every good girl hears it
Every bad boy fears it
No matter what i see
I believe, i believe
[Chorus:]
The power touches me
The power helps us see
The power holds my hand
The power drives me crazy
A flower grows, an old man dies
And through it all we still survive
A poor man screams but no one hears
Ain't nothing changed much through the years
Every bad day needs it
Every good day breeds it
No matter how it feels
When it's real you know it's real
Stronger than any bomb that any man has ever made
(repeat chorus)
And it won't take long to understand
Just how amazed i am
Hey, hey
Open up your eyes and see
It won't take long to understand
Just how amazed i am
Every good day needs it
Every bad day needs it
No matter what i see
I believe, i believe
Stronger than any bomb any man has ever made
(repeat chorus twice)
The power drives me crazy
If i believe and you believe
And we believe everything is gonna be all right
All right
It just might

(the power)

Amy Grant | The Things We Do For Love | /a/amy+grant/the+things+we+do+for+love_10009993.html | Too many broken hearts have fallen in the river
Too many lonely souls have drifted out to sea
You lay your bets and then you pay the price
The things we do for love, the things we do for love.
Communication is the problem to the answer
You've got her number and your hand is on the phone
The weather's turned and all the lines are down
The things we do for love, the things we do for love.
Like walking in the rain and the snow
When there's nowhere to go
And you're feelin' like a part of you is dying
And you're looking for the answer in his eyes.
You think you're gonna break up
Then he says he wants to make up.
Ooh you made me love you
Ooh you've got a way
Ooh you had me crawling on the floor.
Like walking in the rain and the snow
When there's nowhere to go
And you're feelin' like a part of you is dying
And you're looking for the answer in his eyes.
You think you're gonna break up
Then he says he wants to make up.
Ooh you made me love you
Ooh you've got a way
Ooh you had me crawling on the floor.
A compromise would surely help the situation
Agree to disagree but disagree the part
When after all it's just a compromise of
The things we do for love, the things we do for love

Andrea Bocelli | Power Of Love | /a/andrea+bocelli/power+of+love_10010598.html | The whispers in the morning of lovers sleeping tight
Are rolling by like thunder now as I look in your eyes
I hold on to your body and feel each move you make
Your voice is warm and tender a love that I could not forsake
'Cause you are my lady and I'm your man
Whenever you reach for me I'll do all that I can
Lost is how I'm feeling lying in your arms
When the world outside's too much to take
That all ends when I'm with you
Even though there may be times it seems I'm far away
But never wonder where I am cause I am always by your side
'Cause you are my lady and I'm your man
Whenever you reach for me I'll do all that I can
We're heading for something somewhere I've never been
Sometimes I am frightened but I'm ready to learn
'Bout the power of love
The sound of your heart beating made it clear suddenly
The feeling that I can't go on is light years away
'Cause you are my lady and I'm your man
Whenever you reach for me I'll do all that I can
We're heading for something somewhere I've never been
Sometimes I am frightened but I'm ready to learn
'Bout the power of love

Andrea Bocelli | Sogno | /a/andrea+bocelli/sogno_20007813.html | SOGNO
Va ti aspettero'
II fiore nel giardino segna il tempo
Qui disegnero' il giomo poi del tuo ritorno
Sei cosi sicura del mio amore
Da portarlo via con te
Chiuso nelle mani che ti porti al viso
Ripensando ancora a me
E se ti servira' lo mostri al mondo
Che non sa che vita see'e'
Nel cuore che distratto sembra assente
Non sa che vita see'e'
In quello che soltanto il cuore sente
Non sa
Qui ti aspettero'
E rubero' i baci al tempo
Tempo che non basta a cancellare
Coi ricordi il desiderio che
Resta chiuso nelle mani che ti porti al viso
Ripensando a me
E ti accompagnera' passando le citta' da me
Da me che sono ancora qui
E sogno cose che non so di te
Dove sara' che strada fara' il tuo ritorno
Sogno
Qui ti aspettero'
E rubero' i baci al tempo
Sogno
Un rumore il vento che mi sveglia
E sei gia' qua

Andrea Bocelli | Someone Like You | /a/andrea+bocelli/someone+like+you_20259252.html | There's a wind that blows
Its calling your name
And its speaks to me again and again
Telling me go to her
Don't let her go
Hold her close to you
Then you will know
The meaning of love
Exactly what is all about
The feeling that I get when I can't forget
Everything that makes me want to
That's how deep it goes
All I really know is that I love you so
And if its the only thing I ever do
Then I know its true
That I should love someone like you
Someone who believes in me
Makes my voice to sing with a heart so free
As sure as I can be
For me if one dream can come true
Then I will love someone like you
In your eyes I see
A life that could mean so much more
With you next to me
And if time is cruel
Well I won't try to hide
I could walk through fire
With you by my side
Cause after all if we want forever
There's a hand to hold through the sad and cold
When nobody wants to know you
So never let it go
And you'll never be alone
Knowing that I love you so
And if its the only thing I ever do
Then I know its true
That I should love someone like you
Someone who believes in me
Makes my voice to sing with a heart so free
As sure as I can be
For me if one dream can come true
Then I will love someone like you
So never let it go
And you'll never be alone
Knowing that I love you so
And if its the only thing, the only thing I ever do

That I should love someone like you

Makes my voice to sing with a heart so free
As sure as I can be

Magari fino in fondo,
Il mondo attorno ormai
Non mi interessa piu.
Mi basta averti qui
E stringerti cosi.
Mi basta un gesto tuo
Un sorriso,
Una parola,
E un attimo cosi
Vale un'eternita
Accendi un fuoco e poi
Restiamo soli!
Noi.
[English: "I Want To Stay Like This"]
I want to stay like this
If possible to the end
By now the world around
No longer interests me
It is enough that you are here
And I hold you like this
A gesture from you is enough
A smile,
A word,
And a moment like this
Is worth an eternity.
Light a fire and then
Let's be alone!
Us.

Andrea Bocelli | When A Child Is Born | /a/andrea+bocelli/when+a+child+is+born_20520198.html | A ray of hope flickers in the sky
A tiny star lights up way up high
All across the land dawns a brand new morn
This comes to pass, when a child is born
A silent wish sails the seven seas
The winds of change whisper in the trees
And the walls of doubt tumble tossed and torn
This comes to pass when a child is born
A rosy hue settles all around
You start to feel you're on solid ground
For a spell or two no one seems forlorn
This comes to pass, when a child is born
It's all a dream, an illusion now
It must come true, sometime soon somehow
All across the land, dawns a brand new morn
This comes to pass, when a child is born
A ray of hope flickers in the sky
A tiny star lights up way up high
All across the land dawns a brand new morn
This comes to pass, when a child is born
This comes to pass ...

You oughta be ooh-eyed, she'll lose you but good
As long as she's warm, the livin' is sweet
Then she'll raise a storm, you're back on the street
You might as well know, my friend, that's the end

The days of wine and roses and you

Falling in love with love is playing the fool
Caring too much is such a juvenile fancy
Learning to trust is just for children in school
I fell in love with love one night when the moon was full
I was unwise with eyes unable to see
I fell in love with love, with love everlasting
But love fell out with me
Oh, I fell in love with love one night when the moon was full

Till I hear you sigh here in my arms
Anywhere you wander, anywhere you go

In your heart believe what in my heart I know
That forevermore I'll wait for you
The clock will tick away the hours one by one
Then the time will come when all the waiting's done
The time when you return and find me here and run
Straight to my waiting arms

For a thousand summers I will wait for you
Till you're here beside me, till I'm touching you
And forevermore sharing your love

Golden rainbows you washed away
Lonely clouds that can only say

To live in your arms again
To love like we did then
To run free as the wind forever
Silver wings of eternity
Take me back like the child to see
Faces lost in the memories
If I could only go back, if I could only go back
To live in your arms again
To love as we did then
To run free as the wind forever, run

The silence of a falling star
Lights up a purple sky
And as I wonder where you are
I'm so lonesome I could cry
I'm so lonesome I could cry

Andy Williams | It's A Most Unusual Day | /a/andy+williams/its+a+most+unusual+day_20321717.html | It's a most unusual day
Feel like throwing my worries away
As an old native-born Californian would say
It's a most unusual day
There's a most unusual sky
Not a sign of a cloud passing by
And if I want to sing, throw my heart in the ring
It's a most unusual day
There are people meeting people
There is sunshine everywhere
There are people greeting people
And a feeling of Spring in the air
It's a most unusual time
I keep feeling my temperature climb
If my heart won't behave in the usual way
Well, there's only one thing to say
It's a most unusual day
There are people meeting people
There is sunshine everywhere
There are people greeting people
And a feeling of Spring in the air
I keep feeling my temperature climb, climb, climb, climb, climb, climb, climb
Till there is only one thing to say
It's a most, most, most, most, most unusual, most unusual
Most unusual da-ay-ay
Most unusual da-ay

Andy Williams | Love Song Of Kalua | /a/andy+williams/love+song+of+kalua_20998262.html | This is the night of love
The shining hour of Kalua
Her song is in the air
Her lips are waiting there
Who will be Kalua's only love?
Who will her lover be?
Who will her lover be?
Before the night is old
My arms will hold Kalua
And where the trandewinds blow
Soft and low
Our love will blossom bright
In the night
And stars will sing above
The love song of Kalua

Andy Williams | Love Story | /a/andy+williams/love+story_20250204.html | Where do I begin
To tell the story
Of how great a love can be
The sweet love story
That is older than the sea
The simple truth about the love she brings to me
Where do I start
With her first hello
She gave new meaning
To this empty world of mine
There'll never be
Another love, another time
She came into my life
And made the living fine
She fills my heart
She fills my heart
With very special things
With angel songs
With wild imaginings
She fills my soul
With so much love
That anywhere I go
I'm never lonely
With her along who could be lonely
I reach for her hand
It's always there
How long does it last
Can love be measured by the hours in a day
I have no answers now
But this much I can say
I know I'll need her 'till the stars all burn away
And she'll be there
How long does it last
Can love be measured by the hours in a day
I have no answers now
But this much I can say
I know I'll need her 'till the stars all burn away
And she'll be there

Andy Williams | May Each Day | /a/andy+williams/may+each+day_20267039.html | May each day in the week be a good day
May the Lord always watch over you
And may all of your hopes turn to wishes
And may all of your wishes come true
May each day in the month be a good day
May you make friends with each one you meet
And may all of your daydreams be mem'ries
And may all of your mem'ries be sweet
The weeks turn to months and the months into years
There'll be sadness and joy, there'll be laughter and tears
But one thing I pray to heaven above
May each of your days be a day full of love
May each day in the year be a good day
May each dawn find you happy and gay
And may all of your days be as lovely
As the one you shared with me today
May each day of your life be a good day
And good night.

Andy Williams | More Today Than Yesterday | /a/andy+williams/more+today+than+yesterday_20263827.html | I don't remember what day it was
I didn't notice what time it wa-as
All I know is that I fell in love with you
And if all my dreams come true
I'll be spending time with you...
Every day's a new day in love with you
With each day comes a new way of loving you
Every time I kiss your lips my mind starts to wander
And if all my dreams come true
I'll be spending time with you
Oh, I love you more today than yesterday
But not as much as tomorrow (yesterday)
I love you more today than yesterday
But, darling, not as much as tomor-orrow-ow
Tomorrow's date means springtime's just a day away
Cupid, we don't need you now, be on your way
I thank the Lord for love like ours that grows ever stronger
And I always will be true
I know you feel the same way too
Oh, I love you more today than yesterday
But not as much as tomorrow (yesterday)
I love you more today than yesterday
But, darling, not as much as tomor-orrow-ow
Every day's a new day, every time I love you
Every way's a new way, every time I love you
Every day's a new day, every time I love you
Every day's a new day [fade]

Andy Williams | One Day Of Your Life | /a/andy+williams/one+day+of+your+life_20856391.html | One day of your life is all I'm askin' girl,
Just give me one day of your life and let me share your world.
If you give me one little moment I will make this moment last,
I'll live the future with the past.
One day of your life can't mean that much to you,
It's only one day of your life, but it will see me through.
If I can't have you for ever, if I can't have things my way
I'll be content with just one day.
If I must build a world of fantasy,
Please with a memory.
One day of your life is all I'm asking girl,
Just give me one day of your life and let me share your world.
If I can't have you for ever, if I can't have things my way
I'll be content with just one day.
One day of your life,
Ooooh one day of your life,
It's only one day of your life,
Just give me only one day of your life

Andy Williams | Quiet Night Of Quiet Stars | /a/andy+williams/quiet+night+of+quiet+stars_20520075.html | Quiet nights and quiet stars
Quiet chords from my guitar
Floating on the silence that surrounds us
Quiet nights and quiet dreams
Quiet walks by quiet streams
And the window lookin' on the mountains and the sea how lovely
This is where to be
Here with you so close to me
Till the final flicker of life's ember
I who was lost and lonely
Believing life was a only a bitter tragic joke
Have found with you the meaning of existence oh, my love
(instrumental interlude)
This is where to be
Here with you so close to me
Till the final flicker of life's ember
I who was lost and lonely
Believing life was a only a tragic joke
Have found with you the meaning of existence oh, my love

Say it isn't so.
Everyone is saying you don't love me,
Say it isn't so.
Everywhere I go,
Everyone I know
Whispers that you're growing tired of me,
Say it isn't so.
People say that you
Found somebody new,
And it won't be long before you leave me,
Say it isn't true.
Say that everything is still okay,
That's all I want to know.
And what they're saying,
Say it isn't so.
People say passing by
Say he's younger than I
And it won't be long before you leave me,
Tell me it's a lie.
Say that everything is still okay,
That's all I want to know.
And what they're saying,
Say it isn't so.

Andy Williams | Show Me | /a/andy+williams/show+me_20997892.html | Don't talk of stars burning above
If you're in love show me
Tell me no dreams filled with desire
If you're on fire show me
Here we are together in the middle of the night
Don't talk of spring, just hold me tight
Anyone whose ever been in love will tell you that
This is no time for a chat
Haven't your lips longed for my touch
Don't say how much, show me, show me
Don't talk of love lasting through time
Make me no undying vow
Show me show me
Haven't your lips longed for my touch
Don't say how much, show me, show me
Don't talk of love lasting through time
Make me no undying vow
Show me show me now

Andy Williams | So Rare | /a/andy+williams/so+rare_20007916.html | What is so rare as a day in June?
'Till now we have never been told
The old question's answered by one that is new
What is so rare, dear, as you?
So rare, you're like the fragrance of blossoms fair
Sweet as a breath of air
Fresh with the morning dew
So rare You're like the sparkle of old champagne
Orchids in cellophane
Couldn't compare to you
You are perfection you're my idea
Of angels singing the Ave Maria
For you're an angel, I breathe and live you
With every beat of the heart that I give you
So rare, This is a heaven on earth we share
Caring the way we care
Ours is a love so rare
So rare, You have the warmth of a Schubert air
Charming and debonaire
Those are the words for you
So rare You have a way that's beyond compare
That "one in a million" air
In everything you do
You have that something, that certain manner
You thrill me more than the "Star Spangled Banner"
You stage a love scene, so sweetly tender
And in that love scene I gladly surrender
So rare, to have a future like yours to share
Sweetheart the way we care

Andy Williams | Still Under The Weather | /a/andy+williams/still+under+the+weather_20824394.html | My first lesson
In losin' love was you
Learnin' to live with your memory
Was lesson number two
And I can't lie
Baby I still cry sometimes
But I've come a long way
Towards gettin' you out of my mind
I'm still under the weather
But I'm over the storm
I still miss the shelter
Of your lovin' arms
But what I thought would kill me
Has just made me strong
I'm still under the weather
But I'm over the storm
Sometimes your memory
Still gets the best of me
But that lonely ache in my heart
Ain't as bad as it used to be
And sometimes the way that I'm feelin'
Inside doesn't show
But I know
I'll get over you, I've just got a long way to go
I'm still under the weather
But I'm over the storm
I still miss the shelter
Of your lovin' arms
But what I thought would kill me
Has just made me strong
I'm still under the weather
But I'm over the storm
I'm still under the weather
But I'm over the storm

Andy Williams | The Bilbao Song | /a/andy+williams/the+bilbao+song_20007894.html | That old Bilbao moon, I won't forget it soon
That old Bilbao moon, just like a big balloon
That old Bilbao moon would rise above the dune
While Tony's Beach Saloon rocked with an old-time tune
We'd sing a song the whole night long and I can still recall
Those were the greatest (those were the greatest)
Those were the greatest (those were the greatest)
Those were the greatest nights of them all
No paint was on the door (no paint was on the door)
The grass grew through the floor (the grass grew through the floor)
Of Tony's Two By Four (of Tony's Two By Four)
On the Bilbao shore (on the Bilbao shore)
But there were friends galore (howdy do, howdy do)
And there was beer to pour (chug-a-lug, chug-a-lug)
And moonlight on the shore (and the moon shines above)
That old Bilbao shore (on the shore, not the floor)
We'd sing all night with all our might and I can still recall
Those were the greatest (those were the greatest)
Those were the greatest (those were the greatest)
Those were the greatest nights of them all
That old Bilbao moon, I won't forget it soon
That old Bilbao moon, just like a big balloon
That old Bilbao moon would rise above the dune
While Tony's Beach Saloon rocked with an old-time tune
We'd sing all night with all our might and I can still recall
Those were the greatest (those were the greatest)
Those were the greatest (those were the greatest)

Andy Williams | Walk Hand In Hand | /a/andy+williams/walk+hand+in+hand_20007897.html | Walk hand in hand with me through all eternity
Have faith, believe in me, give me your hand
Love is a symphony of perfect harmony
When lovers such as we walk hand in hand
Be not afraid, for I am with you all the while
So lift your head up high and look toward the sky
Walk hand in hand with me, this is our destiny
No greater love could be, walk hand in hand
Walk with me
Be not afraid, for I am with you all the while
So lift your head up high and look up to the sky
Walk hand in hand with me, this is our destiny
No greater love could be, walk hand in hand
Walk with me

Andy Williams | Where Or When | /a/andy+williams/where+or+when_20007908.html | It seems we stood and talked like this before
We looked at each other in the same way then
But I can't remember where or when
The clothes you're wearing are the clothes you wore
The smile you are smiling you were smiling then
But I can't remember where or when
Some things that happened for the first time
Seem to be happening again
And so it seems that we have met before
And laughed before, and loved before
But who knows where or when

Andy Williams | Winter Wonderland | /a/andy+williams/winter+wonderland_20802005.html | Sleigh bells ring
are you listening
in the lane
snow is glistening
A beautiful sight
we're happy tonight
walking in a winter wonderland
Gone away is the bluebird
here to stay is a new bird
He sings a love song
as we go along
walking in a winter wonderland
In the meadow we can build a snowman
Then pretend that he is Parson Brown
He'll say: Are you married?
we'll say: No man
But you can do the job
when you're in town
Later on
we'll conspire
as we dream by the fire
To face unafraid
the plans that we've made
walking in a winter wonderland
In the meadow we can build a snowman
and pretend that he's a circus clown
We'll have lots of fun with mister snowman
until the all the kids knock him down
When it snows
ain't it thrilling
Though your nose gets a chilling
We'll frolic and play
the Eskimo way
walking in a winter wonderland
Walking in a winter wonderland
walking in a winter wonderland

From the Broadway musical "My Fair Lady"
I'm gettin' married in the morning
Ding dong the bells are gonna chime
Pull out the stopper, let's have a whopper
But get me to the church on time
I gotta be there in the morning
Spruced up and looking in my prime
Girls, come and kiss me, show how you'll miss me
But get me to the church on time
If I am dancing, roll up the floor
If I am whistling, whisk me out the door, for
I'm gettin' married in the morning
Ding dong the bells are gonna chime
Kick up a rumpus but don't lose your compass
And get me to the church, get me to the church
For Pete's sake, get me to the church on time

Andy Williams | Wouldn't It Be Loverly | /a/andy+williams/wouldnt+it+be+loverly_20520063.html | Words and Music by Alan Jay Lerner and Frederick Loewe
All I want is a room somewhere
Far away from the cold night air
With one enormous chair
Oh, wouldn't it be loverly?
Lots of chocolate for me to eat
Lots of coal makin' lots of 'eat
Warm face, warm 'ands, warm feet
Oh, wouldn't it be loverly?
Oh so loverly sittin' abso-bloomin'-lutely still
I would never budge till Spring crept over mi window sill
Someone's 'ead restin' on my knee
Warm and tender as 'e can be
Who takes good care of me
Oh, wouldn't it be loverly?
Who takes good care of me
Oh, wouldn't it be loverly? (loverly)
Loverly (lovely)
Oh, wouldn't it be loverly?

I'll go on mine
Please don't you call me
Or drop me a line

With somebody new
And you should find someone
More suited to you
Cause we're wrong for each other
Wrong for each other
Let's fight another round
I couldn't explain it
I can't tell you why
I've got such a talent
For making you cry
And one day you'll thank me
For saying so long
For making an end to
A love that was wrong
Cause we're wrong for each other
Wrong for each other
Let's fight another round
Cause we're wrong for each other
Wrong for each other
Wrong for each other
Wrong for each other...

And the redbird sings, I'll be blue
Cause you don't want my love
"Some other time", that's whatcha say when I want you
Then you laugh at me and make me cry
Cause you don't want my love
You don't seem to care a thing about me
You'd rather live without me
Than to have my arms around you
When the nights are cold and you're so all alone (all alone)
[Chorus]
In the summertime when all the trees and leaves are green
And the redbird sings, I'll be blue
Cause you don't want my love
Once upon a time you used to smile and wave to me
And walk with me but now you don't
Cause you don't want my love
Some other guy is takin' up all your time
Now ya don't have any time for me
Cause you don't want my love
You don't seem to care a thing about me
You'd rather live without me
Than to have my arms around you
When the nights are cold and you're so all alone (all alone)
In the summertime when all the trees and leaves are green
And the redbird sings, I'll be blue
Cause you don't want my love
In the summertime when all the trees and leaves are green
And the redbird sings, I'll be blue
Cause you don't want my love
(In summertime, in summertime when all the leaves are green)
In the summertime, I'll be blue all the time
Cause you don't want my love

Bring us back in time, to what we love.

When the music high we can sing alone,
Bring us back in time, to what we love.

Everybody was around and I was dancing with you
We all went down to the party Friday night
And had a drink there or two
Oh what a heat
I feel love and heart beat
It's electricity
Majestic sound, round and round and round, got you next to me
Feel my heartbeat drumming to the beat
Like a symphony
Feel my heartbeat drumming to the beat
Like a melody, come see
Feel my heartbeat drumming to the beat
Like a symphony
Feel my heartbeat drumming to the beat
Like a melody, come see
Time after time everybody came around
And I was dancing with you
Don't know your name,
Making me ashamed
To feel the way that I do
The lights went out
Couldn't leave without you, this is the place to be
I won't forget
The greatest times I've had when I was dancing with you
Feel my heartbeat drumming to the beat
Like a woman in love
Feel my heartbeat drumming to the beat
Like a woman in love so high
Feel my heartbeat drumming to the beat
Like a symphony
Feel my heartbeat drumming to the beat
Like a melody, come see
Feel my heartbeat
Feel my heartbeat
Feel my heartbeat
There was a time when everybody was around and I was dancing with you
Don't know your name,
Making me ashamed
To feel the way that I do
The lights went out
Couldn't leave without you, this is the place to be
I won't forget
The greatest times I've had when I was dancing with you

Today we're living in a shanty
Today we're scrounging for a meal
Sophie
Today I'm stealing coal for fires
Who knew I could steal?
Men
I used to winter in the tropics
Women
I spent my summers at the shore
Fred
I used to throw away the paper
All
He don't anymore!
We'd like to thank you: Herber Hoover
For really showing us the way
We'd like to thank you: Herbert Hoover
You made us what we are today
Prosperity was 'round the corner
A cozy cottage built for two
In this blue heaven
That you
Gave us
Yes!
We're turning blue!
They offered us Al Smith and Hoover
We paid attention and we chose
Not only did we pay attention
We paid through the nose.
In ev'ry pot he said "a chicken"
But Herbert Hoover he forgot
Not only don't we have the chicken
We ain't got the pot!
Hey Herbie
Women
You left behind a greatful nation
All
So, Herb, our hats are off to you
We're up to here with admiration
Sophie
Come down and have a little stew
All
Come down and share some Christmas dinner
Be sure to bring the missus too
We got no turkey for our stuffing
So why don't we stuff you
We'd like to thank you, Herbert Hoover
For really showing us the way
You dirty rat, you Bureaucrat, you
Made us what we are today
Come and get it, Herb!

Ariana Grande | Baby I | /a/ariana+grande/baby+i_21065398.html | Baby I got love for thee
So deep inside of me I don't know where to start
I love you more than anything
But the words cant even touch what's in my heart
When I try to explain it I be sounding insane
The words don't ever come out right
I get all tongue tied (and twisted)
I can't explain what I'm feeling
And I say baby, baby
Baby (baby I)
Oh baby, oh baby, my baby (Baby I)
Oh baby, baby I (baby I)
All I'm tryna say is you're my everything baby
But every time I try to say it words they only complicate it

No matter what you do (real talk) I'll be around
Oh baby, see baby I been feelin' you
Before I even knew what feelings were about
Oh baby
When I try to explain it I be sounding all crazy
The words don't ever come out right
I get all tongue tied (and twisted)
I can't explain what I'm feeling

Straight up, you got me
All in, how could I not be
I sure hope you know (I sure hope you know)
If it's even possible, I love you more
Than word love can say it
It's better not explaining that's why I keep saying baby I
Ooh baby, oh baby, my baby (Baby I)

All I'm tryna say is you're my everything baby
But every time I try to say it words they only complicated

Ariana Grande | Break Free | /a/ariana+grande/break+free_21085384.html | [Verse 1]
If you want it, take it
I should have said it before
Tried to hide it, fake it
I can't pretend anymore
[Pre-Chorus]
I only want to die alive
Never by the hands of a broken heart
I don't wanna hear you lie tonight
Now that I've become who I really am
[Chorus]
This is the part when I say I don't want it
I'm stronger than I've been before
This is the part when I break free
Cause I can't resist it no more
This is the part when I say I don't want it
I'm stronger than I've been before
This is the part when I break free
Cause I can't resist it no more
You were better, deeper
I was under a spell
Like a deadly fear I am, babe
On the highway to hell
I only want to die alive
Never by the hands of a broken heart
I don't wanna hear you lie tonight
Now that I've become who I really am
[Bridge]
This is the part when I say I don't want it
I'm stronger than I've been before
This is the part when I break free
Cause I can't resist it no more
[Chorus]
This is the part when I say I don't want it
I'm stronger than I've been before
This is the part when I break free
Cause I can't resist it no more
(Our love baby, oooh)
The thought on your body
I came alive
It was lethal
It was fatal
In my dreams it felt so right
But I woke up and pretend
Oh baby
This is the part when I say I don't want it
I'm stronger than I've been before
This is the part when I break free
Cause I can't resist it no more
This is the part when I say I don't want it
I'm stronger than I've been before
This is the part when I break free
Cause I can't resist it no more

Been runnin' 'round in circles
Tryin' to find the end (end)
Bumped into this shy guy
While chillin' with my friends (friends)
He's eyein' me, his eyes on me
Makes my body weak

It's only been a minute
Since you came in, and changed my li-ife
When I get around you, I feel this spark igni-ite
I got that fire, you got me open
You dig it deeper, we take it higher x2
Crazy what we're doin'
Livin' lettin' go
Ridin' havin' good times
And no one has to know
He's eyein' me, his eyes on me
Makes my body weak

It's only been a minute
Since you came in, and changed my li-ife
When I get around you, I feel this spark igni-ite

Ariana Grande | Honeymoon Avenue | /a/ariana+grande/honeymoon+avenue_20996813.html | I looked in my rear view mirror and
It seemed to make a lot more sense
Than what I see ahead of us,
Ahead of us, yeah.
Uh I'm ready to make that turn
Before we both crash and burn
'Cause that could be the death of us,
The death of us,
Baby you know how to drive in rain
And You decided not to make a change
Stuck in the same old lane
Going the wrong way home
I feel like my heart is stuck in bumper to bumper
Traffic, I'm under pressure 'cause I can't have you
The way that I want
Let's just go back to the way it was
When we were on Honeymoon Avenue

Guess they didn't count at that stop sign
And my heart is at a yellow light, a yellow light

Well that's when we start turnin' around
You're saying baby don't worry
But we're still going the wrong way baby

We gon' be lost if we continue to fight
Honey I know
Yeah, we can find our way home
I feel like my heart is stuck in bumper to bumper

Oh, oh, oh, oh
I don't ever ask you where you've been

Know who you're with
I can't even think straight but I can tell
That you were just with her
And I'll still be a fool
I'm a fool for you

Just a little bit of your heart
Just a little bit of your heart
Just a little bit of your heart is all I want
Just a little bit of your heart
Just a little bit of your heart
Just a little bit is all I'm asking for
Oh, oh, oh, oh
[Verse 2]
I don't ever tell you how I really feel
Cause I can't find the words to say what I mean
And nothing's ever easy
That's what they say
I know I'm not your only
But I'll still be a fool
Cause I'm a fool for you
[Chorus]

But at least I'm one
I hear a little love is better than none
Oh babe

Just a little bit of your heart
Just a little bit of your heart
Just a little bit of your heart is all I want
Just a little bit of your heart
Just a little bit of your heart
Just a little bit is all I'm asking for
[Chorus]
Just a little bit of your heart
Just a little bit of your heart (Just a little bit baby)
Just a little bit of your heart is all I want (Is all I want)
Just a little bit of your heart (Just a little bit)
Just a little bit of your heart (Just a little bit)
Just a little bit is all I'm asking for

On the moon, Who needs genies in a bottle girl
If they already got you
Boy you make me feel so lucky
Finally the stars align
Never has it been so easy, to be in love
And to give you this heart of mine
You know what I need (Eh! )
I know what you like (Eh! )
Put it all together baby we could be alright (Hey)
How could this be wrong
When it feels so right
Yeah, I really love you I really love you
And I'll never let you go

I'm always gonna stay
You call for me, I'm right there (right there)

Lost in in your eyes and I lose all track of time

If my Benz turned back to Public Transportation
Would you still be at home for me with the candles waiting
And get my mind back adjacent to the place of a young visionary
A player too, you know I have some girls missionary
My black book, and numbers thicker than the dictionary
And bible I got to recycle
I love and I like you
Five course meals even though you don't mind a drive-thru
That's why I got you

I may not know it
But it's real as it can be
You need no season

When you're both in love

Seein' eye to eye and feelin'
Heart to heart

Both in love
With each other from the start
Ev'rythin's magic

In this wonderland for two
There's nothing like it
Won't try to hide it
Anyone can tell there's nothin' you can do
There's no need to worry
Which starts we're under
We've got all we need to know
We have the answer
Forever after
You're the one for me
And I'm the one for you

I've gotta go my way
Try and understand

Arlo Guthrie | Buffalo Skinners | /a/arlo+guthrie/buffalo+skinners_20153013.html | Traditional, arranged
By Arlo Guthrie
Come all you old time cowboys
And listen to my song
Please do not grow weary
I'll not detain you long
Concerning some wild cowboys
Who did agree to go
And spend the summer pleasant
On the range of the buffalo.
Well I found myself in Griffin
In eighteen eighty-three
When a man by the name of Creagho
Come a'walkin' up to me
Sayin "How do you do young fella
And how'd you like to go
And spend the summer pleasant
On the range of the buffalo".
Well me being out of work right then
To that drover I did say
"My goin' out on the buffalo range
Depends upon the pay
But if you pay good wages,
Transportation to and fro
I think I might go with you
On the range of the Buffalo".
Well yes I pay good wages
And transportation too
If you'll agree to work for me
Until the season's through
But if you do get homesick
And you try and run away
You'll starve to death out on the trail
And you'll also lose your pay
Well with all the flatterin' talkin'
He signed up quite a train
Some ten or twelve in number
Of able bodied men
And our trip it was a pleasant one
Through all New Mexico
Until we crossed Pease River
On the range of the buffalo
It was there our pleasures ended
And our troubles all begun
A lightnin' storm come up on us
And made the cattle run
We got full of the stickers
On the cactus that did grow
And the outlaws waited to pick us off
In the hills of Mexico
Well the working season ended
But the drover would not pay
He said "You spent your money boys
You're all in debt to me".
But the cowboys never put much stock
In a thing like a bankrupt law
So we left the bastard's bones to bleach
On the range of the buffalo.

Arlo Guthrie | Children Of Abraham | /a/arlo+guthrie/children+of+abraham_20518617.html | Children of Abraham, what's your story?
Killing each other for a piece of land
Children of Abraham, this ain't glory
You've got to walk together hand in hand
Take down the flags that just separate the people
Take down the wire on the boundary
Take back the words that were spoken in anger
You've got to live just like a family
Children of Abraham,I must be dreaming
Rivers of blood running through your hands
Children crying, mothers screaming
It just wasn't looking like the Promised Land

Flyin' in a big jet liner
Chicks are flyin' everywhere around the plane
Could we ever feel much finer?
Comin' into Los Angeles
Bringin' in a couple of keys
Don't touch my bags if you please mister customs man
There's a guy with a ticket to Mexico
No, he couldn't look much stranger
Walkin' in the hall with his things and all
Smilin, said he was the lone ranger
Comin' into Los Angeles
Bringin' in a couple of keys
Don't touch my bags if you please mister customs man
Hip woman walkin' on the movin' floor
Trippin' on the escalator
There's a man in the line and she's blowin' his mind
Thinkin' that he's already made her
Comin' into Los Angeles
Bringin' in a couple of keys
Don't touch my bags if you please mister customs man
Comin' in from London from over the poll
Flyin' in a big airliner
Chicks are flyin' everywhere around the plane
Could we ever feel much finer?

Arlo Guthrie | Cowboy Song | /a/arlo+guthrie/cowboy+song_20178912.html | This morning I woke up alone
I spent the day time on my own
Lots of people have come and gone
To hear a cowboy sing an old time song
Oh babe, I love you so
This here is the only thing I know
It ain't right and it ain't wrong
To hear a cowboy sing an old time song
Last night I sat till closing time
Thinking of the things that crossed my mind
You were the one I was thinking of
I guess it must be that I'm just in love
Oh babe, I love you so
This here is the only thing I know
It ain't right, it ain't wrong
To hear a cowboy sing an old time song
I hope they play this song of mine
On the jukebox for a dime
Then if you leave 'cause something's wrong
You'll hear your cowboy sing an old time song
Oh babe, I love you so
This here is the only thing I know
It ain't right and it ain't wrong
To hear a cowboy sing an old time song
To hear a cowboy sing an old time song

Arlo Guthrie | Drowning Man | /a/arlo+guthrie/drowning+man_20189587.html | Words and music by Arlo Guthrie
I remember when I met you
Underneath the evening sky
Now it seems I could forget you
Rescue me, I'm bound to die
All the promises we made there
With no words to understand
And though I've tried I've come up empty
Heart of stone, drowning man
CHORUS:
I'm going down for the third time
And I need a helping hand
The rooster crows and I'm sinking
Heart of stone, drowning man
Where are you, my dear companion
How much longer must you be
I'm all alone out on the ocean
When will you come and rescue me
It's too late for new beginnings
In this world I've left behind
There is nothing left worth keeping
Not a thing to change my mind
CHORUS
How far down the road to glory
Must we go without a sign
Caught out on these stormy waters
How can you treat me so unkind
Did you know from the beginning
That I'd dig this lousy hole
Oh, don't leave me here abandoned
In this dark night of the soul
CHORUS

Arlo Guthrie | Eli | /a/arlo+guthrie/eli_20243611.html | Gonna sit right here and sing myself a tune
That I wrote one afternoon after everyone had gone
And I know that this won't mean a lot to you
You've got better things to do but for me I'll just go on
Old dog is lying in the middle of the road
He don't do nothing 'cause he don't want to
And I think I'm gonna like that hound
'Cause the more he sits around, the less I want to do too
Gonna sit right here and watch the world roll by
Till we both just up and die watching clouds and eating flies
Don't want to bother no one, don't want nothing here to change
A dusty road is all we've ever dreamed of
And I think I'm gonna love this life
Maybe someday take a wife
She can join us if she wants to
Ain't nobody gonna tell what to do
If a car comes we just move
And we both move real smooth
Like old dog is moving must be something in the air
Some bitch is coming up the road now
And I think I'm gonna like that hound
'Cause the more he gets around, the more I want to do too

Arlo Guthrie | Evangelina | /a/arlo+guthrie/evangelina_20334165.html | I dream in the morning
That she brings me water
And I dream in evening
That she brings me wine
Just a poor man's daughter
From Puerto Penasco
Evangelina in old Mexico
There's a great hot desert
South of Mexicali
And if you don't have water
Then you better not go
Tequila won't get you
Across the desert
To Evangelina in old Mexico
And the fire I feel for the
Woman I love
Is driving me insane
Knowing she's waiting
And I just can't get there
Lord only knows that I've
Racked my brain
To try and find a way
To see that woman in old Mexico
I met a kind man
Who guarded the border
He said you don't have papers
But I'll let you go
I can tell that you love her
By the look in your eyes now
She's the rose of the desert
In old Mexico
And the fire I feel for the
Woman I love
Is driving me insane
Knowing she's waiting
And I just can't get there
Lord only knows that I've
Racked my brain
To try and find a way
To see the woman in old Mexico
And I dream in the morning
That she brings me water
And I dream in the evening
That she brings me wine
Just a poor man's daughter
From Puerto Penasco
Evangelina in old Mexico
There's a great hot desert
South of Mexicali
And if you don't have water
Then you better not go
Tequila won't get you
Across the desert
To Evangelina in old Mexico
She's the rose of the desert
In old Mexico

Arlo Guthrie | Every Hand In The Land | /a/arlo+guthrie/every+hand+in+the+land_20336102.html | Words and Music Arlo Guthrie
Every hand in the land
Shakes along with me
It don't seem that I can dream
Like I used to dream
Maybe that somebody is shaking me
If I fell I could tell
It may be that somebody is making me
Dream that you're forever
Gone away from me
Every toe that I know
Step away with me
I can't seem to get where
I want to be
Maybe it's my own foot
That keeps tripping me
Trip trap - flip flap
It must come to wherever from it comes
Through to me
I can't walk to where
My own dreams talk to me
Every face in this place
Take your eyes away
Blink if you think that
There's another way
Maybe it's my own eyes
That don't see the way
The time is blind
It may come to pass
That I will lose my mind
I can't live without the love I left behind
I can't live without the love I left behind

Arlo Guthrie | Gates Of Eden | /a/arlo+guthrie/gates+of+eden_20209380.html | Of war and peace the truth just twists, its curfew gull it glides
Upon four legged forest clouds the cowboy angel rides
With his candle lit into the sun though it's glow is waxed in black
All except beneath the trees of Eden
The lamp post stands with folded arms its iron claws attached
To curbs 'neath holes where babies wail
Through its shadow's metal badge
All in all can only fall with a crashing but meaningless blow
No sound ever comes from the Gates of Eden
The savage soldier sticks his head in the sand and then complains
Unto the shoeless hunter who's gone deaf but still remains
Upon the beach where hound dogs bay at ships with tattooed sails
Heading for the Gates of Eden
The time rusted compass blade, Aladdin and his lamp
Sits with Utopian hermit monks, side saddle on the Golden Calf
And on their promises of paradise you will not hear a laugh
All except inside the Gates of Eden
Relationships of ownership they whisper in the wings
To those condemned to act accordingly and wait for succeeding kings
And I try to harmonize with songs the lonesome sparrow sings
There are no kings inside the Gates of Eden
The motorcycle 'Black Madonna', two-wheeled gypsy queen
And her silver-studded phantom cause the gray flannel dwarf to scream
As he weeps to wicked birds of prey, pick up on his bread crumb sins
And there are no sins inside the Gates of Eden
The kingdoms of experience in the precious winds they rot
While paupers change possessions
Each one wishing for what the other has got
And the princess and the prince discuss what's real and what's not
It doesn't matter inside the Gates of Eden
The foreign sun it squints upon a bed that is never mine
As friends and others, strangers from their fates try to resign
Leaving men holy and totally free to do anything they wish to do but die
And there are no trials inside the Gates of Eden
At dawn my lover comes to me and tells me of her dreams
With no attempts to shovel the glimpse
Into the ditch of what each one means
At times I think there are no words but these to tell what's true
And there are no truths outside the Gates of Eden

Arlo Guthrie | Hobo's Lullaby | /a/arlo+guthrie/hobos+lullaby_20211224.html | o to sleep you weary hobo
Let the towns drift slowly by
Can't you hear the steel rail humming
That's a hobo's lullaby
Do not think about tomorrow
Let tomorrow come and go
Tonight you're in a nice warm boxcar
Safe from all the wind and snow
I know the police cause you trouble
They cause trouble everywhere
But when you die and go to heaven
You won't find no policemen there
I know your clothes are torn and ragged
And your hair is turning grey
Lift your head and smile at trouble
You'll find happiness some day
So go to sleep you weary hobo
Let the towns drift slowly by
Don't you feel the steel rail humming
That's a hobo's lullaby
