Well the sun sets gently on your shoulders
And it makes me want to touch you there
And the light in your eyes makes me feel
Like there's something much better out there
Something kind 

Chorus:
And I know someday I might be looking around
Trying to find some purpose
Well purpose it can't be that hard to find
As long as I've got the wind
The wind and your love to carry me 

Well tomorrow holds only mystery
And who's to say what might be
But I know in you I've found a love so strong
The sun and the moon look on in jealousy
In jealousy 

Chorus 

Well the sun sets gently on your shoulders
And it makes me want to touch you there
And the light in your eyes makes me feel
Like there's something much better out there
Something kind 

Chorus 

To carry me
Please carry me

Little girl was down by the waterside
The sun so hot and the roses so red where she lie
As little boys sit and watch as she twirls all around
Sunny smiles not a raincloud could bring that girl down
But now.... 

What's behind those big brown eyes
Do you dream at night
Without your lullaby 

Little boy sits alone as he sings in the dark
Wondering if his own dreams had pulled them apart
He sings a song of tomorrow he never can see
Mostly sings of a lost little girl's memory
And Now... 

As his dreams go flashing by
He begins to hear
A lonely lullaby 

Well now
We used to sing
And we used to cry
Through everything
In our children's lullaby 

Little girl on the street with nobody around
Has her head in the air dirty feet on the ground
She shuts her eyes and she wonders is this a mistake
Now she's gone from the warmth of her little boy days
And still... 

She believes that she'll get by
On her own without
Her little boy's lullaby 

Little boy prays to God to answer his song
To hold her hand when everyone else's are gone
Time goes by and the wounds slowly turn into scars
So he makes his final wish on the midnight stars
And he screams... 

Little girl won't you hear my cry
Won't you come back home 
To your lover's lullaby 

Little girl down by the waterside
Goodbye

Seems like only yesterday
But it started long ago
Trials tribulations
And notes in the autumn nights 

We didn't know way back then
What brothers we really were
Letting the time pass quickly
And watching it go 

Chorus:
But we stood together
And we made each other strong
We tried to comfort ourselves when the nights were long
And we held back the tears
When they needed to flow
But where we once stood lie only footprints in the snow 

Even when it was hard
To find a smiling face
And when others would leave us
Without a trace 

We never thought about tomorrow
Or what she might bring
We never stopped to realize
That we might not always sing 

Chorus 

Seems like only yesterday
God where'd the time go
Where we once laughed lie only tears in the snow

. . .



Well I know that no one is to blame
But do you feel my strength when you call my name
'Cause I feel yours inside
How could this be more right 

And I have traveled through my mind
I've given all my dreams up to time
Tell me what else can I do
We'll I'm nothing without you 

But you, you just don't know what to do
I guess I'll have to lose my love for you
These feelings cannot stay
'Cause I'm withering away 

I'm withering away
Withering away
And teardrops are all that I can give
But do you really know what true love is
Don't let it slip away
This doesn't happen everyday 

And you'd have no problem without me
So take this song as my apology
But you have closed my eyes 

And love's light shall never rise
Shall never rise on me
Shall never rise
It shall never rise 

And I'm scared I'll never hold you again
But I know that no one is to blame.

. . .



This mountain we must climb over
This mountain we must climb
I will follow you over
We will survive 

It's time now
We must be moving onward
It's time for us to fly
Take care and look over your shoulder
I'm there all the time 

If your lost and you need someone to count on
Oh you've got to look to me
Because it's times like these when a good friend is a savior
Oh you come running on back to me 

It's time now
We must be moving onward
It's time for us to fly
Take care and look over your shoulder
I'm there all the time 

And someday when you're feeling awkward
And someday when you're down
Come to me I will give you anything
I'll turn your frown around 

What you've done for me is more that I could hope for
Oh you are my friend
And I'll be there for you through happiness and sad times
Oh our love will pull us through 

This mountain we must climb over
This mountain we must climb
I will follow you over
We will survive

. . .



Oh won't you listen O Lord to my plea for justice
Can't you hear my cry for help
Try to heed my honest prayer
And judge me in my favor 

'Cause you know my heart
You have come to me at night
But it's so hard to speak no evil
In a hole deprived of light 

So I pray for you to answer
And to turn to me and smile
Shower me with love to save me
From demons deep inside 

Protect me as you would your own eyes
In the shadows of your wings
And learn to know the sound that echoes
When an innocent man sings
When an innocent man sings
When he sings 

So I lie with all my failures
Praying to my best friend's ghost
Time to kneel instead of sitting
And let me do thy bidding
Won't you let me do thy bidding yeah
Help me do thy bidding

. . .



A small group of boys walks down the street
Throwing a ball in the air
One says to another
Hey I'll always be your brother
I'll always be your friend 

Chorus:
Do you remember
When we thought we were immortal
And the games we played always had a happy end
But in the game of life all the roses wither
And time writes its lines upon your face 

Summer's here and three young men
Drive through the town in the night air
When fall comes they'll part again
One turns to another and he says 

Chorus 

It's three A.M. and he's been feeling lonely
Work's been hard and the city's hard too
He picks up the phone and halfway across the country
A brother listens to his blues he says 

Chorus 

Lift your voices loud and clearly
Sing for brotherhood right now
Lift your voices loud and clearly
Sing for sisterhood right now 

Sometimes I wish
That we all were immortal
And the game of life always had a happy end
But I know it's not true oh time keeps passing
But I'm just glad to spend my time
With you 

Lift your voices loud and clearly
Sing for brotherhood right now
Lift your voices loud and clearly
Sing for sisterhood right now

. . .



When I was just a young boy
My mama said to me
Don't fall in love willingly 

Now that is all forgotten
Unwilling memory 

But if you change your mind
I will walk the line
I'll follow....
Willingly 

We used to talk about it
But now it seems the wind has blown your way
And I have come to doubt it
That you and I will ever love again 

'Cause good enough is one thing
That I will never be
And I admit it all
Willingly 

And now the times are changing
The things I've seen before don't look the same
My life is rearranging
But falls apart with whispers of your name 

And though I swear to love you
With all sincerity
I'll slowly fade away
Willingly 

The sun is on my shoulders
Perhaps it's colder for I've lost some pride
Or maybe it's the absence
Of all the joy I felt right by your side 

And when the storm was over
I found your memory
And I will hold it warm
Willingly

. . .



No fog clear in the moonlight
The stars shine so bright now's the time
I close my eyes - soft wind touch my face
Cool sand upon the place where I once kissed you
And held you close
Now I will reach for the stars
Because Oh my love, that's where you are


Chorus:
Though the storms of black night rage on
I still see your face
I still feel your lips on mine
And though my heart feels all alone without you
I still hear you sing to me
I still hear your voice on the sea 

Waves crash break the silence
Gulls cry a song of lament
I walk on through the stormy night
The air cries flash of anger
Dark night enshrouds the stranger all alone without you
Now I will reach for the stars
Because Oh my love, that's where you are 

Chorus 

No fog clear in the moonlight
The stars shine so bright now's the time
I close my eyes - soft wind touching my face
Cool sand upon the place where I once kissed you
And held you close
Now I will reach for the stars
Because Oh my love, that's where you are

Chorus

. . .



We met as two total strangers
As many lovers often do
But who could have ever seen the danger
I didn't know I'd fall in love with you 

You are this lonely picker's daydream
Like a wish that's wishing to come true
So Liberty just know I'm waiting
To share this love song with you 

Chorus
But do you think about me when you're lying in his bed
Won't you take the time to explain
Do you ever think you'd rather be with me instead
Or do you only think about me when it rains 

We shared some special nights together
We said we'd watch the morning rise
But when the sun was all around us
Wasn't nothing I hadn't seen in your eyes 

I try so hard to keep it hidden
But I am hurting deep inside
For every time I've seen you smile
There are two times that I have cried 

Chorus 

Now and forever my love will be the same
I will be waiting underneath the pouring rain.
