1st Verse:
Another question in me
One for the powers that be
It's got me thrown
And so I put on my poker face
And try to figure it out
This undeniable doubt
A common occurence
Feeling so out of place
Guarded and cynical now
Can't help but wondering how
My heart evolved into
A rock beating inside of me
So I feel such a stoic ordeal
Where's that feeling that I don't feel
Chorus:
There was a boy who had the faith to move a mountain
And like a child he would believe without a reason
Without a trace he disappeared into the void and
I've been searchin' for that missing person
2nd verse:
Under a lavender moon
So many thoughts consume me
Who dimmed that glowing light
That once burned so bright in me
Is this a radical phase
A problematical age
That keeps me running
From all that I used to be
Is there a way to return
Is there a way to unlearn
That carnal knowledge
That's chipping away at my soul
I've been gone too long
Will I ever find my way home
Chorus:
There was a boy who had the faith to move a mountain
And like a child he would believe without a reason
Without a trace he disappeared into the void and
I've been searchin' for that missing person
He used to want to try to walk the straight and narrow
He had a fire and he could feel it in the marrow
It's been a long time and I haven't seen him lately
but I've been searchin' for that missing person

Sometimes I feel like this world is just one big gigantic merry-go-round
You gotta hold on tight or you get hurled through the air
Yeah, life is a 3 ring circus With clowns and freaks and camels and such
And you never know when you might be attacked by the bears
(Chorus)
Give me love, give me love
Love me good
Give me love, give me love
Love me good
Sometimes I feel like I'm afraid of my own shadow and then
Sometimes I can feel as bold as Gengis Khan
But I could never live in a yurt on a diet of Mongolian barbeque
I conqure the world for a moment Then the moment is gone
(Chorus 2x)
(bridge)
Let us take a moment now to bow our heads and pray
if only to give thanks for making it through another day
Sometimes I wish I was in a movie or some 70's TV thing
Where everything gets neatly wrapped by the end of the show
Yeah, but this ain't Hollywood and this sure ain't the Brady Bunch
and how this plot's gonna all pan out I don't really know
(Chorus 3x)

We're passengers aboard the train
Silent little lambs amidst the pain
That's no longer good enough
And when it's time to speak our faith
We use a language no one can explain
That's no longer good enough
And God knows it's a shame
'Cause if we look to pass the blame
We are not the worthy bearers of His name
Chorus:
For the world to know the truth
There can be no greater proof
Than to live the life, live the life
There's no love as quite as pure
There's no pain we can't endure
If we live the life, live the life
Be a light for all to see
For every act of love will set you free
There's something beautiful and bold
The power of a million human souls
Come together as one
And each, in turn, goes out to lead
Another by His word, His love, His deed
Now the circle is done
It all comes back to one
For it is He and He alone
Who has lived the only perfect life we've known
. . .

I have been unfaithful
I have been unworthy
I have been unrighteous
And I have been unmerciful
I have been unreachable
I have been unteachable
I have been unwilling
And I've been undesirable
And sometimes I have been unwise
I've been undone by what I'm unsure of
But because of you
And all that you went through
I know that I have never been unloved
I have been unbroken
I have been unmended
I have been uneasy
And I've been unapprochable
I've been unemotional
I've been unexceptional
I've been undecided
And I have been unqualified
Unaware - I have been unfair
I've been unfit for blessings from above
But even I can see
The sacrifice You made for me
To show that I have never been unloved
Unaware - I have been unfair
I've been unfit for blessings from above
But even I can see
The sacrifice You made for me
To show that I have never been unloved
It's because of you
And all that you went through
I know that I have never been unloved

1st Verse:
Once upon a time
I was faithless, running blind
Thru the Valley of the Lost
So now you find it rather strange
When you hear me claim the name
Of the one who bears the cross
And I say
Chorus:
I believe in you now
A new light is showing me how
I used to walk in the shadows of doubt
But I believe in you now
2nd Verse:
Will there ever come a day
When you follow in the way
Of the truth that sets you free
To where the thunder of a voice
And the echo of a choice
Will bring you to your knees
No longer running thru the night
A conversion to the light
Giving way to disbelief
And you say
Chorus
. . .

I remember when you took a stand
With the pearl of wisdom in your hand
And a soul of desire
You held your own against the world
A lion's heart in a little girl
So unafraid of the fire
But those days don't last
Sweet dreams die fast
A stumble when you walk on the wire
When all your friends
Start giving in
The flames are burning higher and higher
(chorus)
Don't give up, Andrea
Got the whole world at your feet
Just keep on - holding on
This is where you need to be
All the days that you've been spending
Spinning while your heart's descending
Like a stone in the ocean
Sometimes when you think the world is ending
It's really just a new beginning
The other side of emotion
But I've seen your eyes -no compromise
When you set your mind on a matter
Be strong through the tears
And your sight will clear
You're gonna get what you're after
Don't give up, Andrea
Got the whole world at your feet
Just keep on - holding on
This is where you need to be
Don't give up, Andrea
Got the whole world at your feet
Just keep on - holding on
This is where you need to be
Don't be surprised when the road divides
Just take the one less traveled by
Don't give up, Andrea
Got the whole world at your feet
Just keep on - holding on
This is where you need to be
Don't give up, Andrea
Got the whole world at your feet
Just keep on - holding on
This is where you need to be
Don't give up, Andrea (Andrea)
Got the whole world at your feet (I know you're gonna make it)
Just keep on - holding on(Andre-a)
This is where you need to be
Don't give up, Andrea (Andrea)
Got the whole world at your feet (I know you're gonna make it)
Just keep on - holding on (Andre-a)
This is where you need to be

I'm looking at you
Old friend of mine
It's no use pretending
That everything's fine
So don't be so brave
Don't be so proud
I want you to know that
I'm here for you now
I can see you hurting and it's hurting me
It doesn't have to be this way
Chorus:
If you'd let me hold you
Closer
Let me know you
Let me show you the way
(Cantor during chorus)
Somebody gonna hold you head up
Somebody gonna show you the light
Somebody gonna hold you head up
Somebody gonna see you right.
I'm feeling for you
Feeling so much
When this heart is big enough
For the both of us
I'll give you my love
If you give me your pain
I'll hold it inside of me
Til you're stronger again
Well I hate seeing you so far away
When not a word can say enough
CHORUS w/ cantor
I'll be your rock for this day
When I hear you calling out my name
Cause I know you'd only do the same for me
Somebody gonna hold your head up
Somebody gonna show you the light
Somebody gonna hold your head up
Somebody gonna see you right
. . .

Who is the you that no one else can see
In your heart the lonely one afraid to be
Lost again...need a friend
You hide your soul
To keep the hurt inside
All alone your tears call out into the night
Is He there...does He care
( Chorus )
Yes, I know your name
Every prayer you pray
I'm the one who brought you to this place
The voice who sings to you
The hand that clings to you
Oh my child, I've always known your name
Known your name
I hold you close to me, close to heart
And this kind of love will find you
Anywhere you are.
Never fear, I am here
( Repeat Chorus )

If I could I would tell you why
The first time I saw her I could touch the sky
I turned to stone...and I could not speak
She had the ability to make me weak
Always wishing... always hoping
That she'll get the message from the
Bottom of my heart
Let's together...share forever
It's just a matter of time
I had to wait and just let her breathe
That's never been easy for a man to see
She moved slow... and she took her time
She kept me guessing what was on her mind
It's just a matter of time
Let's forever...be together
It's just a matter of time
It's just a matter of time
. . .

Chorus:
I really wanna see you
I really wanna touch you
If only I could hold you in my arms again
I really wanna reach you
Forever to be with you
If only I could hold you in my arms again
It was written in the stars
On the pages of my heart
Oh, that someday I would find
The love I feel for you tonight
On the ocean of our dreams
Like a prayer you came to me
And the longing that had been
Found its ending in your eyes
And I am missing you tonight
Chorus
Across the waves, across the sea
Separating you from me
Here's a promise and it's mine
I will love you for all time
I'm wishing you were here tonight
Chorus

Where's the navigator of your destiny
Where is the dealer of this hand
Who can explain
Life and its brevity
'Cause there is nothing here
That I can understand
You and I
Have barely met
And I just don't want to let go of you yet
Chorus:
Noah, hello, good-bye
I'll see you on the other side
Noah, sweet child of mine
I'll see you on the other side
And so I hold your tiny hand in mine
For the hardest thing I've ever had to face
Heaven calls for you
Before it calls for me
When you get there save me a place
A place where I can share your smile
And I can hold you for more than just awhile
. . .
