This time yesterday I thought I was gonna die
Standing at the edge of my ordinary life
Now I'm looking far ahead I only see clear blue skies
I hope this feeling lasts me until the end of time

Now I don't see the things that bring me down like I used to (Noooo)
There were times we felt like giving up but we came through

All this time we've come a long long way
I've waited a lifetime for the day
I'm praying this moment's here to stay
All this time when every one else said I was wrong
You gave me a reason to be strong
You gave me the will to carry on
All this time.

You kissed my blues away
Now yesterday's far behind
And all these clouds of doubt have cleared around my mind
Now I'm looking far ahead and looking with brand new eyes
Well I can't see the future but I know it's looking bright

Never thought we could survive what we've come through
There were times we felt like giving up but we held true

All this time we've come a long long way
I've waited a lifetime for the day
I'm praying this moment’s here to stay
All this time when every one else said I was wrong
You gave me a reason to be strong
You gave me the will to carry on
All this time.

It's like a second chance at life
So many people pass it by
And you know it’s a shame cause they can't believe so they don't and they won't
even try
With every battle that's been won
With every little thing I've done
What I couldn't see is now clear to me

All this time we've come a long long way
I've waited a lifetime for the day
I'm praying this moment's here to stay
All this time when every one else said I was wrong
You gave me a reason to be strong
You gave me the will to carry on
All this time.

Too many roads
Dead end streets
I lost my way
Endlessly
Looking for something to restore my faith
Give me the strength to fight again

Too many words
Hit me hard
Coz they never meant what they said they would
I had been taken and broken, abandoned, alone
I guess, I was resigned to give in

The very first time that we met, I knew
I believed in you
I was lost and you gave me direction again

Just when all hope was gone
Just when I needed someone to give me love
You came and rescued me, yeah
Showed me right there
Just what I'd been waiting for
Lifted me up
And guided me out of the dark
Just when I needed it most
You’ve shown me the meaning

So you say you need time
Some time on your own
You wanna work things out

No I don't understand why
But baby I'll try
been waiting all my life

So before you go, won't you let me know
Is this the end,

Just say that it isn't so, tell me that you love me, just like before
Open up your heart, cause I need to know
Just say it isn't so
Oh no

I don't wanna lose your love
Baby bring me back to forever more
Explain it to my heart
Cause this can't be wrong
Just say it isn't so

I remember the days,
I remember the nights we spent together
The way that I made you laugh, is it all in the past
If so it makes me sad

So before you go, won't you let me know
Is this the end
Just say that it isn't so
Tell me that you love me just like before
Open up your heart, cause I need to know
Just say it isn't so

I don't wanna lose your love
Baby bring me back to forever more
Explain it to my heart, cause this can't be wrong
Just say it isn't so

Every moment in time,
That we spent. you and I, can't be wasted,
Oh no, no no no no
Turn around, look my way
Maybe then you will stay
Baby I pray

Oh oh
Just say that it isn't so
Tell me that you love me just like before
Open up your heart, cause I need to know
Just say it isn't so
Oh no

I don't wanna lose your love
Baby bring me back to forever more
Explain it to my heart, cause this can't be wrong
Just say it isn't so

Sometimes I get emotional
Sometimes I do some stupid things
Sometimes I say what I should just keep inside

Sometimes I'm sad, about everything
Sometimes I'm mad, and break something
Sorry times ten, but you just got in the way

Don't give up now, running away
I won't hurt you
Sometimes I'm just a pain
And that's the way it is
That's just the way I am

Sometimes I feel like crying
Laying down and dying
That's when I need you
Laughing's always easy
But sometimes I'm just scared you'll leave me
That's when I feel,
Emotional

You say I'm just, impossible
Totally, unpredictable
I'm just a girl, get used to it
No big deal

You can't change me
Why would you try
I'm no angel, but I can make you smile

And that's the way it is
And that's just the way I am

Sometimes I feel like crying
Laying down and dying
That's when I need you
Laughing's always easy
But sometimes I’m just scared you'll leave me
That's when I feel.
Emotional

Don't give up now, running away
I won't hurt you
Sometimes I'm just a pain
And that's the way it is
That's just the way I am

Sometimes I feel like crying
Laying down and dying
That's when I need you
Laughing's always easy
But sometimes I'm just scared you'll leave me
That's when I feel

Sometimes I get,
Emotional

It's gonna take a miracle to make you stay this time
Nothing I could care to say could ever change your mind
Though silently, there's a part of me, that wants to let you go

Call it my mistake, if that's what it takes
With time you'll learn what I already know

When the world is not enough
Come back to me
When your dreams have lost their touch
Come back to me
When you're tired of chasing rainbows, that never do end
And nothing in this world is good enough
Just come back to me again

What we have is everything
In love there's nothing more
In my own experience, of that I feel so sure
Baby secretly, there's a side of me, that wants to set you free
I will pay the price, gladly sacrifice
If that's what I must do to make you see

When the world is not enough
Come back to me
When your dreams have lost their touch
Come back to me
When you're tired of chasing rainbows, that never do end
And nothing in this world is good enough
Just come back to me again
Oh Baby…

When you're tired of chasing rainbows, that never do end
When you realise that paradise has slipped through your hands
You can spend your whole life searching
You won't find this again
When nothing in this world is good enough
Turn around boy, come back into my life

I couldn't get you
Just like a shooting star
Then slipped through my fingers
It's a road too far

Why did I falter
Why did I lose my ground
I'm a fish out of water, now that your not around

How could I mend what's all said and done
How could I be so wrong

I'm running too fast and too slow
Moving too high and too low
But I can't seem to find a way to get it right

I'm going over and under
So is it really any wonder
That I can't seem to find a way to get it right

The odds are against me, and I'm running out of time
Chasing the shadows of a dream I'll never find
Got too much to lose, I can't walk away
That's just the price I pay

I'm running too fast and too slow
Moving too high and too low
But I can't seem to find a way to get it right

I'm going over and under
So is it really any wonder
That I can't seem to find a way to get it right

So now, I will go and stand and fight
I'll find the strength and hold on with all of my mite

I'm running too fast and too slow
Moving too high and too low
But I can't seem to find a way to get it right

I'm going over and under
So is it really any wonder
That I can't seem to find a way to get it right

Don't know why memories seem to pass me by
Broken the wings of a butterfly when you said goodbye
Late at night you're not here but it's alright
Now I seem to love you more since you closed the door

And you'll be moving on to places I would love to go
But you can't get back you can't get back to me
And you'll be moving on to places we would love to go
But you can't get back you can't get back to me

Let him without sin cast the first stone
I'll guarantee you this you'll stand alone
Let him without sin cast the first stone

Right or wrong I just needed to belong
These emotions carried on until you came along
Do we keep living a lie promises that we make until we die

Let him without sin cast the first stone
I'll guarantee you this you'll stand alone
Let him without sin cast the first stone
And you can't get back you can't get back to me

And you'll be moving on to places I would love to go
But you can't get back you can't get back to me
And you'll be moving on to places we would love to go
But you can't get back you can't get back to me

Let him without sin cast the first stone
I'll guarantee you this you'll stand alone
Let him without sin cast the first stone
And you can't get back you can't get back to me

Let him without sin cast the first stone
I'll guarantee you this you'll stand alone
Let him without sin cast the first stone
And you can't get back you can't get back to me

One life with you

So you're leaving
There must be something I can try
Saying sorry
As big as it seemed were words just lost on you and I

Is there something I've been missing
Cos I still need to know is this the end or the beginning

One life with you
Baby that's all I'm asking for
Take me in your arms for ever
One life with you
Baby you know this heart would break, say we can before it's too late

It's so funny
We never really say goodbye
I must be crazy
Kidding myself that you'll still give me one more try

A heart will heal in time
But I pray for the day when I can say that you are mine

One life with you
Baby that's all I'm asking for
Take me in your arms for ever
One life with you
Baby you know my heart would break, say you will before it's too late

It's the same every day, no hiding away (no hiding)
Only you can make it better
Start forever tonight for the rest of our lives
Baby we should be together

One life with you
And that's all I'm asking for
Take me in your arms for ever
One life with you
Don't you know my heart will break, say we can before it's too late

One life with you
And that's all I'm asking for
Take me in your arms for ever
One life with you
Don't you know my heart will break, say we can before it's too late
One life with you
Baby that's all I'm asking for
This time make it for ever baby

Birds flying high you know how I feel
Sun in the sky you know how I feel
Breeze driftin' on by you know how I feel

It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good

Fish in the sea you know how I feel
River running free you know how I feel
Blossom on the tree you know how I feel

It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good

Dragonfly out in the sun you know what I mean, don't you know
Butterflies all havin' fun you know what I mean
Sleep in peace when day is done
That's what I mean

And this old world is a new world
And a bold world
For me

Stars when you shine you know how I feel
Scent of the pine you know how I feel
Oh freedom is mine
And I know how I feel

How can sorry ever mend a broken heart?
What can I say when words can't make it better?
What do I do when I can't forgive myself for what I've done?
Where can I go where memories aren't tearin' me apart?
How can sorry ever mend a broken heart?

How can I hope when everything is hopeless?
Why do I try when nothing I can do will bring you back?
Why do I dry my cryin' eyes when I know that tears will start?
How can sorry ever mend a broken heart?

You only ever treaded me so kind
Boy, I musta been stupid, out of my mind
I let you down one to many times
Now where can I go where memories aren't tearin' me apart
How can sorry ever mend a broken heart?

How could I have messed it up so bad?
Just throw away everything we had
Look in the mirror don't know who I am

What can I say when words can't make it better?
What do I do when I can’t forgive myself for what I've done?
Where can I go where memories aren't tearin' me apart?
How can sorry ever mend a broken heart?
Why do I dry my cryin' eyes when I know that tears will start?
How can sorry ever mend a broken heart?

I'll never be a hero
I'll never change the world
And I can't stop the hands of time
Or touch the sky
But when you're near me
Feels like nothing's gonna hurt me
There's not one thing I can't do
When I'm with you

I know I'm not made out of stone
I'm not made of steel
I'll never be a super hero even in my dreams
But when you look at me
I am invincible

I don't possess the powers
To turn night to day
And I can't, I can't stop the rain
Make seasons change
But when you're near me
Feels like nothing's gonna stop me
And in that moment in time
The world is mine

I know I'm not made out of stone
I'm not made of steel
I'll never be a super hero even in my dreams
But when you look at me
I am invincible

I'll never conquer the world
Won't make history
I will never live forever
That will never be
But when you look at me
I am invincible

I am strong
But all the strength that I possess
Is all because of all the love and tenderness
That you bring me
You make me feel I can do anything

I know I'm not made out of stone
I'm not made of steel
I'll never be a super hero even in my dreams
But when you look at me
I am invincible

There is nothing more to do
There are days for loving you
I'll never know, no I'll never know

Oh what a world it would be like
To sit with you and talk all night
I'll never know, no I'll never know

Coz I've always held you so close
Now I'm losing everything I love and more

Tell me how I'm gonna wake up
What am I supposed to do
Tell me when the night is over will I still be with you
Baby if we're gonna breakup
I'll never believe its true
(ad lib coz I'm lonely)
Tell me how I'm gonna wakeup without you

I will toss and turn at night
Dreaming what it would be like
I'll never know, no I'll never know

Maybe you would think it to
Loosing me like I lost you
But I'll never know, now I'll never know
How I'll never look at your eyes
Just to have you here beside me one more time

Tell me how I'm gonna wake up
What am I supposed to do
Tell me when the night is over will I still be with you
Baby if we're gonna break up
I'll never believe it's true
Tell me how I'm gonna wake up without you.

I wanna hear your love
Is there anybody listening
How did you hear this love
Is the sound of your heart beating next to mine

I just can't be here without you
If only I knew what you were thinking to

Your love is like sunshine
Through my window
Throwing me a life line
Showing me the way
Your love is like a new dawn
After the night time
Simple words can not describe
How you move me deep inside

It's more than everything
The magic I feel
When we touch
Much more than energy
Like flying with angels above
It's amazing baby
Truly astounding
More than anything
More than everything
Is your love

Your love is like a warm breeze
Fresh off the ocean
I can feel your heartbeat
Dancing with mine
Your body told me when we're kissing
Does real emotion
Come and overwhelm me
Blowing my mind
I believe it endlessly
You're a miracle to me

It's more than everything
The magic I feel
When we touch
Much more than energy
Like flying with angels above
It's amazing baby
Truly astounding
More than anything
More than everything
(Is your love)

Real words can never show
How much you've changed my life
But I'd really rather try
I wanna try

It's more than everything
The magic I feel
When we touch
Much more than energy
Like flying with angels above
It's amazing baby
Truly astounding
More than anything
More than everything
Yeah yeah yeah

Am I really here, is this really happening
Cause I've thought about this moment all my life
When you pull me near, just a touch and I begin
To know I'm in the perfect place in perfect time

It's almost like I'm dreaming wide-awake
You only ever get to feel this way

Once in a lifetime
You find yourself believing
Every dream that you've lost has been found
Once in a lifetime
Somebody turns your whole world around
And my once in a lifetime is now

If you could hear my heart
You would know with every beat
Nothing I have ever done compares to this
Stay right where you are, close enough to hear me breathe
Wanna hold on to this feeling and never forget

That I am yours with every breathe I take
You only ever get to feel this way
Once in a lifetime
You find yourself believing
Every dream that you've lost has been found
Once in a lifetime
Somebody turns your whole world around
And my once in a lifetime is now

I wish that time was standing still
That I could stay right here until
I've memorized this moment here with you
Cause with every touch and every kiss
I know that I was made for this
You only find something so true
Once in a lifetime, in a lifetime
You find yourself believing every dream that you've lost has been found
Once in a lifetime
Somebody turns your whole world around
And my once in a lifetime is now

And my once in a lifetime is now
Is now
