Goodbye Girl
06:30

Goodbye girl
It’s been a long time
Since I’ve been around
I hate to say it
But I’m leavin’ town
Goodbye girl
I hear that train a rollin’
Coming down the tracks
And soon I’ll be goin’
Never coming back
Goodbye girl
All of my life
I’ve searched for you
Now it’s too late
I have to say to you
Goodbye girl
Now the train’s a leavin’
And my fate is bound
Don’t know where I’m goin’
But I’m leaving town
I love you
You know it’s true
I just wish
I could come home to you
And take you in my arms
Where you belong
Look into your eyes
Where my love is found
I need you
To tell me to
Stop running
And come home to you
And run into your arms
Where I belong
Taste your lips again
So our love is bound
Goodbye girl

Fire Dance

You can be anything
You can live
Out your dreams
If you want
You could become
All you want to be
Light dances in the flames
Like waves on the sea
Bringing light to dark night
And warmth that surrounds me
Fire in the sky
Rain down on me
Flames climb high at night
In my dreams
All you have to really do
Is look into your heart
And you’ll see that all you need
Is within your reach
I’ve seen flames dance in dreams
Walked the edge of extremes
And I know the flame will rise
And consume me
Fire in the sky
Rain down on me
Flames climb high at night
In my dreams
(Guitar Solo)
You can be anything
You can live
Out your dreams
If you want
You could become
All you want to be
I’ve seen flames dance in dreams
Walked the edge of extremes
And I know the flame will rise
And consume me
Fire in the sky
Rain down on me
Flames climb high at night
In my dreams

Baby, I Don't Know Why
04:32

|
Baby, I don’t know why
You cry
Every night over me
Baby, don’t you understand
I’m your man
And that’s the way it should be
‘Cause deep in the night
When I’m holdin’ you tight
It all seems like a dream
I lose control
And I just don’t know
How I’m supposed to be
But I know
I love you
Yes I do
I, can’t explain
How this feeling inside me remains
But you touched my heart
And left me out of the dark
And now
I love you
Yes I do
I, don’t know
If you can see it in me
But I know
I love you
Yes I do
Love you

Tonight (Vocal)

There’s a lot I don’t know
Like why wars are waged by men
There’s a lot that makes no sense
Like watching my friends lose everything
I wish I could help them
Sometimes I can’t sleep at night
I wake up in a fright
And all the world’s asleep tonight
Please wake up before the end’s in sight
We could bring each other up
Give your brother a helping hand
Help with the needy and poor
You would like it if you gave it a chance
Together I know we can
And we could sleep tonight
Knowing we gave it a fight
But all the world’s asleep tonight
Please wake up before the end’s in sight
I wish this war would end
And all the soldiers come home again
I wish that we could help
Stop all the hate that’s destroying man
I wish this war had never been
And somewhere in the world tonight
Love could win over this fight
But all the world’s asleep tonight
Please wake up before the end’s in sight
Look around you my friends
Don’t look away just because you’re afraid
I need your help with this plan
Together we’ll do it, I know we can
Please come and take my hand
And we could win this fight
It’s our lives, and our right
And all the world’s asleep tonight
Please wake up before the end’s in sight
Tonight

Across The Sea
03:48
|

|
Sometimes I wish
That I could
Sail across the sea
Find a way
To get away
From reality
I would watch
The stars as
Waves crashed down on me
And search for
Lighted shores to
Harbor my safety
I know
I can’t escape
But someday
I’ll find my way
Lights fall
Down from dusk
Polaris I see
Poised in the northern sky
My compass
To guide me
I know I’ll find a way
In this lonely world
And if you believe in me
You could be my girl
Together we will sail the world
Just you and I
Sometimes I wish
That I could
Sail across the sea
Find a way
To get away
From reality
I would watch
The stars as
Waves crashed down on me
And search for
Lighted shores to
Harbor my safety
I know
I can’t escape
But someday
I’ll find my way
Lights fall
Down from dusk
Polaris I see
Poised in the northern sky
My compass
To guide me
Across The Sea

Your Sweet Lovin'
04:27
|

You say love is just a game
Fools play
And it’s always the same
A broken heart and lonely nights
No one
To hold you tight
You say you have no time
Workin’ hard
And you can’t spare a dime
No hope for lovin’ you
But I know
That ain’t true
Look in your heart
I know
You’ll find a way
‘Cause I love you
With all my heart
It tears me in two
When we’re apart
I need your sweet lovin’
To get through the day
And I need you
To be by my side
I’m feelin’ blue
‘Cause I need you tonight
I need your sweet lovin’
Every night and day
You say you have no time
Workin’ hard
And you can’t spare a dime
No hope for lovin’ you
But I know
That ain’t true
You say love is just a game
Fools play
And it’s always the same
A broken heart and lonely nights
No one
To hold you tight
Look in your heart
I know
You’ll find a way
‘Cause I need you
To be by my side
I’m feelin’ blue
‘Cause I need you tonight
I need your sweet lovin’
Every night and day
‘Cause I love you
With all my heart
It tears me in two
When we’re apart
I need your sweet lovin’
To get through the day

Shadows
04:56
|
|||
|
When shadows fall down on the earth
And moon shines it’s light on the ground
They move across the walls within
In hopes of being unbound
They know not of the state they’re in
Or why the world passes them by
And if you acknowledge them
They’ll never leave your side
Sometimes I wish I had not this vision
I could live my life in peace
But still they see that I can hear them
And so they still haunt my dreams
Night brings shadows in the mist
Past lives bound to this realm
And so I try to look away
The shadows that haunt my dreams

It’s sunny
All the birds
In the sky
Are singing a lovely tune
It’s funny
Whenever
You walk by
The dark clouds part from my view
Your so lovely
That my heart
Jumps for joy
And all the world
Seems so new
So maybe and if you
Want me to
I know I could
Fall for you
Oh can’t you see
That it’s just
You and me
And all the sunny skies turn dark
When I’m without you
Oh baby I can see
The one for you is me
And all the
Grey clouds
In the sky
Turn sunny when
You are near
So honey
Come and take my
Hand tonight
And you could be
By my side
No more lonely
And all the
Grey cloud will
Become clear blue
Sunny skies
