My love is a rock, an immovable force
Anywhere that you are, my love is right here
With any tick of the clock
Life can change it's course
But my love will not
My love is a rock

Headed out into uncharted waters
What you feel is your only guide
And each step that you take brings you closer
Just trust what you feel inside
Cause something's telling you to keep on going
Telling you that your aim is true
Could be the voice of reason, or just blind devotion
Whatever it is, it's calling out to you, singing....

Chorus

Mixed messages shoot through a wire
Tender turmoil in your voice
Change is spreading through you like a fire
Bridges are burning, you made your choice
And as you're searching for peace in your world
You may find yourself spinning around, and around, and around
While the pain you've endured
Only serves to make you surer
Of the strength you have found, and then....

Chorus

You may not be looking for love, but love may find you
You may choose to close your eyes and run
You may leave love far behind you
In your eyes I can see the future
In your heart I can always trust
In your mind I will live on forever
In your arms I will turn to dust
These are feelings like I have never known
The song of my very soul
I can no longer silently sing it
I'm gonna take it to the mountain and let it roll singing.....

My love is a rock, an immovable force
Anywhere that you are, my love is right here
With any tick of the clock
Life can change it's course
Some things are here and then gone before you know
Some things disappear without a chance to grow
But my love will not
My love is a rock

. . .


When she turned away, you know it was just in time
Cause I'd used up all my strength
And you can't let a woman see you cryin
And you know it's real
She's not gonna change her mind
You choose not to change your ways
Though she begged you a thousand times
And you don't understand
And you want to be a man about it

In time you'll learn to live without it
And you know that you'll survive
But still sometimes you doubt it
If you can stand a little rain
You're gonna grow again
Cause you know that when love dies
The heart survives

Your stare at the empty walls
Inside of this vacant home
You walk through these hollow halls
And at night you sleep alone

Chorus

You've been over it so many times in your head
Looking for a hidden message of hope
In something she said
Still you find nothing to make this bad dream end
Tell me, how many sleepless nights will you spend

Chorus

. . .


Live it up, and let it go
Your time is up before you know
In a world full of wonder
Don't let your troubles pull you under

You're telling me your life is tough
And what you need is stronger stuff
Well you can live under sedation
Or get up and cause an overnight sensation

Woah, live it up
Life is what you make it
Woah, live it up
It's right there for you to take it

You sit and watch your MTV
You dream away in a fantasy
If you don't dig the situation
Then get a guitar and rock the nation

You can't hold back once you light the fuse
And if it feels alright, then let it roll
You got nothin to lose

Woah, live it up
Life is what you make it
Woah, live it up
It's right there for you to take it

. . .


All heaven broke loose
It hit me like a shot
Right out of the blue
All heaven broke loose
I was shaken by the power of love
Taken by the power of you

If I don't get to heaven
For the things that I've done
I guess it's all just history now
Too late to be the innocent one
I know that I've been led astray
Love has torn me apart
But each day is a victory now
Since you have given peace to my heart

Oh, I was a little bit crazy then
Wheels kept turnin' around
And I kept losin' ground
When you stopped me from fallin again

All heaven broke loose
It hit me like a shot
Right out of the blue
All heaven broke loose
I was shaken by the power of love
Taken by the power of you

Now you have been my salvation
For a love with no costs
Brought me to my senses again
Gave me back more than I eve lost

So, baby, if I lose my way
If temptation goes to my head
It's only a twist in the road
There's no way that I'll be misled

Oh, I was a little bit crazy then
But I've paid the price
Of my fool's paradise
Now I've just got to hold you again

If all heaven broke loose
It hit me like a shot
Right out of the blue
All heaven broke loose
We were shaken by the power of love
Taken by the power

The love that you've given me
Is a love that is true
And each time I feel like running
I come running home to you

Oh, we were a little bit crazy then

If all heaven broke loose
It hit me like a shot
Right out of the blue
All heaven broke loose
We were shaken by the power of love

. . .


I cannot bathe you in a river gone black
I cannot hold you in a poison rain
If I can't see you through the air that we breathe
What will love in the future be?

I wanna watch my children laugh as they run
I wanna hold their children on my knee
And tell them stories of a vanishing sun
Of how it used to be

In my lover's life I want to share
I want to see the world now through her eyes
And about everything she sees, I care
The time has come to rise

I cannot bathe you in a river gone black
I cannot hold you in a poison rain
If I can't see you through the air that we breathe
What will love in the future be?
Will we make it a different story?
Is there love in the future for you and me?

We're looking for answers in outer space
When will we discover the earth is a sacred place?

Chorus

. . .


How did we end up ending up this way
I always thought that we could work it out
At times I wondered if we'd last out the day
But my love was always stronger
Stronger than my doubt
Then here we are, are we running out of time?
We've come so far to leave it all behind
But that's how I feel
I wanna know how you feel

I'd walk all night for you baby
Stand in the pourin rain
But you gotta meet me baby, half way
You know that I don't wanna give up
Do anything to make you stay
But you gotta meet me baby, half way

I couldn't tell you what you meant to me
I kept those feelings hidden far away
And hoped that you could tell by looking at me
Now you know what you needed
Is too late to say....

That I love you more than I ever knew I could
And I need you now like I never thought I would

Chorus

I thought about livin my life without you
In this cold, cold world
Well I'm no man of steel
But I'd walk on fire for you
That's just how I feel

Chorus

. . .


Love is a positive vibration
With love you find the good in a bad situation
Everybody's gonna need a helping hand
It don't really matter where you stand
You're gonna need someone to lean on

Hate is a constant inflammation
A fire that's built on fear and frustration
One man's heaven is another man's hell
Every story has got two sides to tell
Don't let anybody pull you under

Some people just love to hate
They criticize when they can't relate
Some people don't love, they just love to hate

Some people can hardly wait
To tear down what you create
Cause some people don't love, they just love to hate

Somebody attacks without a reason
He's just trying to drag you down in the hole that he's in
Why are people so negative
I think that everybody ought to just live and let live
We could use a little understanding

Chorus

I guess some people been pushed around
Now they're trying to even it up by putting somebody else down
I believe that things can only get better
When everybody learns to live together

. . .


Why can't we see eye to eye?
I feel you don't want to try
Cause you won't see me as I am
If you can't accept in me
The good with the bad
Then you won't see me cry again
You won't see me

Why'd you want to go and walk away?
I have got some things to say
But you won't see me as I am
If you can't accept in me
The good with the bad
Then you won't see me try again
You won't see me
I'll be movin on, I'll be long gone

You are in my range
I am in your sight
You say, things don't change
I say, they just might

You just might find that you can trust in me
If you look at more than just what you want to see
But you won't see me as I am
If you can't accept in me
The good with the bad
Then you won't see me around here again
You won't see me
I'll be movin on, I'll be long gone

. . .


I think to much about you baby
You've on my mind more than you should
I would do without you now
I would walk away now if I could
I never needed anybody baby
I'm the one who never thought I would

I keep telling myself I don't need you
I keep telling myself I don't want you, now
I'd tell myself anything to make me believe
That I don't love you baby
But I can't lie to my heart

Something's got me running to you
Something tells me I can't run away
Even if I thought of leaving
The thought of you would only make me stay
No one's ever gotten to me baby
I'm the one who always got away

Chorus

I can't tell the sky that it's not blue
How can I tell you that I don't love you?

. . .


A man once said love is all you need
And if not right he was close indeed
It won't pay the rent
Won't buy your shoes
But it's time well spent if it keeps away the blues
It won't turn the tide or stop the rain
And deep down inside there might be a little pain
But you still go through it
Cause it gets you through the night
Cause when you get down to it love is all right

Love is all right
Love is all right
Oh, love is all right

When your girl walks out you just want her back
You got to have her now and that's a fact Jack
Cause as big and bad and mean as you are
You can't watch you're woman in another man's car
You wanna keep that girl in you're passenger seat
You wanna find her groove, wanna keep her beat
So if you have to do it, you're ready to fight
Cause when you get down to it love is all right

. . .


My life is runnin like a stock car race
High speed and lots of curves
Keep the pedal to the metal, win or lose
But don't lose your nerve
Some people live in fear
If you can call that living
I'm gonna keep my ass in gear
And take the chance I'm given

I'm gonna go for broke, play to win
Do or die, just don't give in
Take a shot, roll the dice
Don't look back, just go for broke

My love is spinning like a steering wheel
Just grab it and hold on tight
Feel the power in your hands
Take me right to the edge tonight
Some people love in vain
If you can call that lovin
So let's hit the streets again
It's all or nothin

Chorus

Standing on the razor's edge
But I'm not going under
Every night I'm on the line
Livin like my days are numbered
