There was trouble in my mind tonight
Something inside didn't feel quite right
Then I saw your face in the moonlight and I was right beside you
Don't need words that we used to use
It goes deeper then the words we choose
You cant loose I wanna spread the news u got a love inside you
Some days it's hard to know what your feeling
I've been down that road before

I can't stop believing
Love makes the world go round
As long as your a part of me
Nothing's gonna take me down
Ohhh

Last winter when the snow fall hit
Cold city it was hard to commit
You were out there looking for the perfect fit and I was right beside you
Nothing real comes over night
You weren't sure if it felt right
But sometimes a love can move your life if you let it guide you

Baby you've got to take love where you can find it
Just walk right through that door

I can't stop believing
Love makes the world go round
As long as I'm a part of you nothing's gonna take you down

Love makes the world
Can't stop believing

Gonna make it happen together
We are strong now
Watch us fly

I can't stop believing
Love makes the world go round
As long as your a part of me nothing's gonna take me down

Love makes the world
Can't stop believing


. . .


The sun is shining but not on me
Another lonely day
What's the use in making plans
When nothing's gonna go my way
But there's a voice down deep inside me telling me what to say

[Chorus]
Don't you know that you can do anything
You can take anything and make it your own
Don't you know that you can do anything
And you don't have to do it alone

Searching for the girl I was
When I was sure and strong
When everything was easier
And I could do no wrong
If I could only believe in myself
I know I could find a way

[Chorus]

Sorry tears in my eyes
Got me down in confusion and doubt
Suddenly I realize
I'm no different than anyone working it out
We're all working it out

[Chorus]

The sun is shining but not on me
Another lonely day
What's the use in making plans
When nothing's gonna go my way
But there's a voice down deep inside me telling me what to say

[Chorus]
Don't you know that you can do anything
You can take anything and make it your own
Don't you know that you can do anything
And you don't have to do it alone

Searching for the girl I was
When I was sure and strong
When everything was easier
And I could do no wrong
If I could only believe in myself
I know I could find a way

[Chorus]

Sorry tears in my eyes
Got me down in confusion and doubt
Suddenly I realize
I'm no different than anyone working it out
We're all working it out

[Chorus]

. . .


I figured it out
I was high and low and everything in between
I was wicked and wild, baby, you know what I mean
Till there was you, yeah, you

Something went wrong
I made a deal with the devil for an empty IOU
Been to Hell and back, but an angel
was looking through
It was you, yeah, you - it's all because of you

[Chorus]
You are the reason
You are the reason I wake up every day
And sleep through the night
You are the reason, the reason

In the middle of the night
I'm going down 'cause I adore you
I want to floor you

I'm giving it up
No more running around spinning my wheel
You came out of my dream and made it real
I know what I feel
It's you - it's all because of you

[Chorus]

In the middle of the night
I'm going down because I want you
I want to touch you
I want to floor you
You are the reason, baby

[Chorus]

. . .


When I met you, I let you know
I didn't want to go the way I'd gone before
That door was closed--I was just looking for fun

And you were the right one, you got it
So we could just play around
We wouldn't get serious or mysterious
When it's done it would just be done

I wasn't gonna fall in love, no, I wasn't gonna fall
I wasn't gonna fall in love, till I fell in love with you

Well, you got down, saw through me
You read me like a book
You took me over and over again
And you turned my head around

I found I didn't know what I thought I knew
I was caught up in you so fast
Emotional, love potion-al
I want to make every moment last

I wasn't gonna fall in love, no, I wasn't gonna fall
I wasn't gonna fall in love, till I fell in love with you

Never know what's gonna, never know what's gonna come along
To change your mind, change your way
Play the game you said you'd never play
Never thought that we, never thought you and I would be together
Well I thought I could, but I guess you can't
You can't, you can't ever
Never say never

I wasn't gonna fall in love, no, I wasn't gonna fall
I wasn't gonna fall in love, till I fell in love with you

. . .


I don't know if it's hot in Texas
And I don't know if it's cold in Hell
I don't know if God is watching
I just know that I love you

People say "bad man's gonna getcha"
Trade my shoes for a simple soul
Throw away your burnt sienna
Cause I just know that I love you

Sticks and stones get gone in a hurry
Jack say "Jill, you never looked so fine"
Dancing on Boardwalk, what me worry?
As long as I know you're mine, all mine
all mine, all mine
you're mine

[Chorus]
I don't know, I don't know,
I don't know, I don't know

And if everybody had someone to care about
What a world, what a world
What a wonderful, wonderful world this would be

I don't care who's in the World Series
Or who does what in their own bedroom
News is blues and it doesn't really matter
I just know that, I just know that I love you

[Chorus]

I just know that I love you

. . .


When my friends told me you had someone new
I didn't believe a single word was true
I showed them all I had a faith in you
I just kept on saying

Oh, no, not my baby
Oh, no, not my sweet baby
You're not like those other guys
Who lead you on and tell you lies

My mama told me when rumors spread
There's truth somewhere and I should use my head
But I didn't listen to what she said
I kept right on saying

Oh, no, not my baby
Oh, no, not my sweet baby
You're not like those other boys
Who play with hearts like they were toys

Well, you might have had a last minute fling
But I am sure it didn't mean a thing
'Cause yesterday you gave me your ring
And I'm so glad that I kept on saying

(* Possibly * You and I we got a special thing
We go together just like summer and spring
They're all jealous of the love you bring
And I'm gonna keep on saying)

Oh, no, not my baby
Oh, no, not my sweet baby
You're not like those other guys
Who lead you on and tell you lies

Oh, no, not my baby
Oh, no, not my sweet baby
Oh, no, not my baby
Oh, no, not my sweet baby

. . .


Do you know that you know me like nobody else
All of my secrets and lies
Do you know that you made me believe in myself
Made me believe I could fly
All the things that you say
That I wait for each day
You're almost too good to be true

[Chorus]
It could have been anyone, oh, anyone
A stranger out of the blue
It could have been anyone, oh anyone
That I gave my heart up to
But it was you

Well you just never know when
the moment will come
When love is about to begin
Something about someone reaching out
And letting someone in
And I'm glad I was there
When out of thin air
We both had nothing to do

[Chorus]

One day we'll find out
Why you were sent to me
Now we're together
It must be the way it was meant to be

[Chorus]

. . .


Yesterday was a perfect day
Living in make-believe, perfect together
In your eyes I was number one
And you were all the world to me forever,
ever and ever
But you have another life
You're going to somewhere I don't belong

[Chorus]
I can't think about Monday
I can't think about watching you walk away
I only want to be with you,

I just want to be with you
I can't think about anything else but Sunday
and the touch of you
I only want to be with you,
I can't think about Monday without you

In an empty room
Waiting for a reason why
Trying, crying, dying
I know that it's over
But I don't want to hear you say goodbye

[Chorus]

. . .


Why do we isolate each other
All the walls we build between us
Make it so hard to be together

How can we tear at one another
When the thing we have in common
Is an uncommon love

Walls can fall, tears can mend
So why can't we reach across the line
And touch each other

Here on two sides of the truth
We've a middle ground in common
We have an uncommon love

Time can heal, hearts can mend
So why can't we reach across the line
And touch each other

When will we ever learn
That the thing we have in common
Is an uncommon love
We have an uncommon love
An uncommon love

. . .


You don't have to wear the weight of the
world on your shoulders
Don't you know I'll be there for you, always, always
You can tell me anything, and you know I'll understand

When you're down and out, and your soul is bare
You just turn around - you will find me there

You keep on giving everyone
so much more than your share
So many things you do in so many ways, always
But you need someone you can hold on to

When you're down and out, I will always care
You just turn around - you will find me there

When it's all gone wrong, it's falling down on you
Lean on me, I'll be strong
I will keep you safe, keep you warm
When you're down and out, I will always care
You just turn around - you will find me there

I will take your hand, I will dry your tears
I will comfort you when your hope has disappeared

When you're down and out, I will always care
You just turn around - you will find me right there

When you're down and out and you're in despair
You just turn around - you will find me there

When you're down and out, I will be right there
You just turn around, you will find me
You will find me there

. . .


Seems so hard
All I want to do is let down my guard
Laugh like a child and play out in the yard
I want to feel safe again

I don't know
What happened to you, where did you go
Wish I could not feel the cold wind blow
I want to feel safe again

If only I could believe everything will soon be
like all the fairy tales I've read
But I feel so lost and naked
And I wake up with the shape of a dream
In my head

Seems so hard
All I want to do is let down my guard
Get through just one more day unscarred
I want to feel safe again
I want to feel safe again
Safe again with you

. . .


I go through the motions of being with people
When deep in my soul, I want to be where you are
I know we speak every night
But words only go so far, I know

It feels like an ocean of time we're apart
I know that I've said it before
But this time when I come home
I will stay with you
This time's the last time that I'm gonna go

Just close your eyes and imagine me home again
It isn't so far away
Soon I'll be back, and you'll never be alone again
This time I mean to stay

I promise you this time I'll do whatever it takes
To stay right by your side
I would do anything, I would give you everything
'cause you are everything to me

But until then
Gotta keep our emotions under control
It won't be easy to do
'cause all I want to do is kiss you, touch you,
hold you, love you, promise, I promise
I promise you, I'll stay with you, but 'til then

Just close your eyes, and imagine me home again
I mean every word I say
Soon I'll be back, and you'll never be alone again
This time I mean to stay

Just close your eyes, and imagine me home again
Soon I will be on my way (never gonna go)
This time I mean it, you'll never be alone again
This time I mean to stay
