Walk blindly to the light and reach out for his hand
Don't ask any questions and don't try to understand Open up your mind and then open up your heart And you will see that you and me aren't very far apart 'Cause I believe that love is the answer I believe that love will find the way Violence is spread worldwide and there are families on the street And we sell drugs to children now oh why can't we just see That all we do is eliminate our future with the things we do today Money is our incentive now so that makes it okay But I believe that love is the answer I believe that love will find the way I believe that love is the answer I believe that love will find the way I've been seeing Lisa now for a little over a year She said she's never been so happy but Lisa lives in fear That one day daddy's gonna find out she's in love With a nigger from the streets Oh how he would lose it then but she's still here with me 'Cause she believes that love will see it through And one day he'll understand And he'll see me as a person not just a black man 'Cause I believe that love is the answer I believe that love will find the way I believe I believe I believe I believe that love is the answer I believe that love will find the way Love will find the way Love will find the way Love will find the way Please love find the way Please love find the way |

So you're scared to show your feelings
Baby I do understand Well I don't make a promise I can't keep And I vow to be a real good friend In those big green eyes I see a glow of love I just hope I'm the one you're dreaming of Let me be the one to love you Let me be the one to care Let me be the one to light your flame Oh baby Oh baby Let me be the one We spend all our time together We can't stand to sleep alone When you say you have to leave for now I miss you before you're gone All along we thought this was absurd (absurd) Every moment we spend goes by too fast Darling Darling take this chance with me Cause I have eyes only for you Oh baby Let me be the one to love you Let me be the one to care Let me be the one to light your flame Oh baby Oh baby Let me be the one Let me be the one to love you Let me be the one to care Let me be the one to light your flame Oh baby Oh baby Let me be the one For you Don't be scared to show your feelings Cause baby I do understand And I don't make promises that I can't keep And I vow to be a real good man |

Seems like yesterday but years have passed us by
Precious memories are clear before my eyes I can hear your voice calling out my name But I don't know you now, nothing stays the same All along I have wanted you I pray tonight that you want me, too All along there was no one else I've been waiting here all by myself If you were here with me we'd ride the ocean tide To that special place I help for you deep inside I've kept good company since you've been away Lonely stayed with me with pride began to fade All along I have wanted you I pray tonight that you want me, too All along there was no one else I've been waiting here all by myself And I will follow you til the end of time Til our love is at the end of the line You rolled out of my life just like the wind And left behind a broken heart All along I have wanted you I pray tonight that you want me, too All along there was no one else I've been waiting here all by myself |

I went to see my grandma today
I learned the difference between Living and alive Wall to wall roaches in a two by four infested room Lying there in pain Praying for the Lord to take her Nora - I hope it won't be too long for you Nora - All these years you've been so strong Nora - I hope you don't mind if I call you Nora I love you After leaving her, I turned my life around I see new life differently Through the vision of the old Oh, material things don't mean that muich to me I guess I learned that I'm just Glad to be alive and healthy Nora - All this time that you have known me Nora - It took your whole life just to show me Nora - How we take some things for granted Nora, Nora, Nora, I love you And though I know there wasn't long to go Time was something that we shared And when you died I didn't cry for long Cause I believe I'll see you again Nora - I'll see you on the other side Nora - I'll be the one with swallowed pride Nora - Are you sure you don't mind if I call you Nora, Nora, I love you, I love you, I love you I love ... you |

If I needed you so desperately
To come to me and talk to me To take my heart and hand into your comfort zone Where I'm not alone or lonely Well would you take the time to be my friend Cause in the end that's all there is There's love the eternal bond between us Would you be there When the lights are down low and I'm feeliong insecure With this bed so big and cold only memories to hold It's your voice I need to hear to help me overcome this fear I need your hand to help my heart from sinking into this quicksand of love If I told you that I couldn't bear to be alone Would you be there And if I said I need your heart to be my home Would you let me stay there Would you be there for me Can't you see I need you and you need me tonight Close your eyes Realize I've got so much love to give to you |

If you can look into his tired and weary eyes
The can tell a million stories of all he holds inside Waiting patiently 'til the day he dies For a better life-for a better life For a better life-for a better life He saw people die because of their beliefs He saw a leader shot down cold by men behind the trees But he believes he believes that one day he will see Love and harmony-love and harmony Love and harmony-love and harmony He said Take me to a world that's filled with happy people Take me to a land where the poor men are the rich ones Where there are smiling faces and the lonely ain't alone Take me to that peaceful place I call Home Tell me how it is that someone can't believe When the sun gives light and brown comes to the leaves But we have got our own ideas of how the story's told Lies and make believe-lies and make believe Lies and make believe-lies and make believe He said Take me to a world that's filled with happy people Take me to a land where the poor men are the rich ones Where there are smiling faces and the lonely ain't alone Take me to that peaceful place I call Home |

You spend half the time dreaming and the other half's a lie
You don't know where you're going and you don't know how to try You don't really have a best friend but you think that you're in love Now all you can remember are the words he used the most Like the "lie" in believe The "I" in decieve The "her" in together The "we" in the weather He said a lot of things I'm sure he meant them at the time But it's not the end of the world Well you didn't see it coming cause you never understood That there's a time to draw the line when things are going good But you just kept on giving beyond the call of love And he was kind to rob you blind of the pieces of your heart Like that part that made you give And the part that made you weak When he would softly kiss you And tell you that he missed you I know it doesn't seem like what I'm going to say is true But it's not the end of the world It's not the end of the line You know there's more to love You know there's more to life And I know there's more to you Well I can't help but think about you in the middle of the night I know it's kinda lonely but you have to win this fight I just wish that I could hold you and tell you it's allright But it's not the end of the world |

Well it's all right to feel like time is running down
And make amends with those who once have let you down To cry for children who have not yet had their chance To pray for foes in hopes that one day we'll join hands And live in Heaven Heaven forever Heaven forever Heaven forever Heaven forever Love's waiting past the stars Tranquility is not that far Believe in Him he believes in you And I'll see you in Heaven I seen a messenger who was preaching on the street He had nothing but the blisters on his feet And all those big shots with their Mercedes' and yachts There'll be a time fir the to let go what they got And I'll see them in Heaven (...maybe) Heaven forever Heaven forever Heaven forever Heaven forever Do you feel it? Do you see? There's no admission, Heaven's free This is ther world which we decided Without the love we're all divided Love's waiting in the sky Tears for Him will puriufy The answer is in His eyes And He'll see you in Heaven Do you live for Heaven Would you die for Heaven Then I'll see you in Heaven |

could i be with you alone?
i'm not sure where this will go. cause we don't have the time we need, just enough to make us bleed. cause i'll be leaving soon... its hard to say when i'll return, and i don't want to lead you on. so if you feel the need, close your eyes and share this dream. it will be eternity... forever for tonight, i will be there to hold you through the night. forever for tonight, i will love you.. forever for tonight forever for tonight as i look into your eyes, feelings much too strong for us not to try, and if by chance we lose this fight, darling we still have tonight. so when i'm far away, i will always be with you. you will never be alone... so if you feel the need, to take my hand and share this night. it will be eternity... forever for tonight, i will be there to hold you through the night. (i'll be there for you babe) forever for tonight, i will love you, forever for tonight... see i've been broken down by empty promises like a sky without a star. i've been having doubts that i can feel again but i believe that i will love you... ohhhhh yeeaaah forever for tonight i will be there to hold you through the night (i'll be there for you baby) forever for tonight i will love you forever for tonight |

All my life has been a show that never ends
Made a lot of music and I've made a lot of friends I've got two children but I've never had a wife Don't mean to bore you with the story of my life I've been criticized for all the things I've done But I must admit that I did it all in fun The Lord has blessed me with a song a day to sing It's been a long hard road but I wouldn't change a thing And oh I'm just lucky to be here I can't believe I got this far And if I stopped along the way to fight a tear I'm sorry But I thought I saw my dream There's been so much that I've learned along the way I learned that love is color blind and how to pray And that emotions were controlled from deep inside But what I learned the most was how to swallow pride Oh, I'm just lucky to be here I can't believe I got this far And if I stopped along the way to fight a tear I'm sorry But I thought I saw my dream Oh, I'm just lucky to be here I'd gladly stay a thousand years Breathe your love into this union of souls And I'll just write the words |
