Abilene
Something*s goin on
I don*t know what it is
But my phone just rang and I didn*t get no call
No call.
Just waiting here
Abilene, its got a lot of what you don*t need
It*s got lots of space
Still nothing seems misplaced
You*ve got a face
You are spacey
You got to take it as it comes to you
Don*t need no act of contemplation
Just keep it off your wasteful way for now (? )
It*s not you who has got to change
It*s not your way at all
It*s got to be you
It*s got to be you
The look in your eyes,
The feel of your body close to me
It*s got to be you
Who tells me the world spin away without love
You...
Reason, oh, reason for being once more together
It*s got to be you.
It*s got to be you
The look in your eyes,
The feel of your body close to me
It*s got to be you
Who tells me the world spin away without love
You...
Reason, oh, reason for being once more together
It*s got to be you.
It*s got to be you.
It*s got to be you.
It*s got to be you.

I Love....
i love...
that's the reason i walk,
the reason i breathe.
the reason i grieve.
the reason i dance.
the reason i smile.
the reason i listen.
the reason i offer a hand.
the reason i see beauty.
the reason i see both darkness,
and light....
the reason i take chances.
the reason i keep going.
the reason i get angry.
the reason i forgive.
the reason i touch.
the reason i question.
the reason i believe.
the reason i am tolerant.
the reason i understand.
the reason i fall.
the reason i fly.
the reason i write...
the reason i am what i am!

When You Need Someone
How does it feel to be on you own
while the night slips away
you toss and turn like a ship in the storm
have you lost your way
I can see by the look in your eyes
you've been hurt before
hold me close like the very first time
cause that's what love is for
Theres no reason to cry cause ill be there beside you when you need someone
I'd never leave you
I swear that you will be the only one
through the sorrow and pain just call out my name when you need someone
I'd sleep forever i swear that you would never be the only one when you need someone
Sometimes the world can be so cold and you dont know why
you're reaching out but theres no one to hold in times rushing by
I can see by the look in your eyes you just can't let go
hold me close and together we'll find just what love is for
Theres no reason to cry cause ill be there beside you when you need someone
I'd never leave you
I swear that you would be the only one
through the sorrow and pain just call out my name when you need someone
I'd sleep forever I swear that you would never be the lonely one when you need someone
When you need someone its a long long day when you need someone
it's a crawl and change
when you need someone you can call out my name
Theres no reason to cry cause I'll be there beside you when you need someone
I'd never leave you
I swear that you would be the only one
through the sorrow and pain just call out my name when you need someone
I'd sleep forever I swear that you would never be the lonely one when you need someone....

I Believe
Give me a reason
Why it's time to call it quits
Give me a reason
And I don't believe a bit
Give me a reason
To never let you go
Give me a reason
I've always told you so
I believe, yes I believe
Refrain:
I believe in me and you
Give me a reason
For the need of changing me
Give me a reason
I'll never change indeed
Give me a reason and I will call it quits
The mirror might be broken but
I know how to fix it
I believe, yes I believe
Refrain:
I believe in me and you
Four seasons in a year
One reason makes it clear
Im not the one receiving
I guess you dont oppose
I know were getting close
Im the one retrieving
Cause I believe!
Refrain:
I believe in me and you

An Atheist, And I Dont Know!
an atheist told me:
'i dont believe in God....'
'okay, what do you believe? '
'well, you know,
there's something out there,
something bigger, beyond
all our conceptions,
some reason behind creating
and destroying....
i dont know... just dont know....
some reason we feel the things we feel,
some reason we do the things we do.....
some reason we live our lives,
some reason we love who we love....
something that knows why things are,
why some people are hungry,
and some have too much...
some reason there's so much suffering...
some reason there's so much beauty...
i dont know, just dont see some bearded
old man casting judgements...
i just dont know....'
i thought for a little bit and answered:
'that's kinda like what i believe,
i just call the 'i dont know',
God! '

One Reason
Lighting candles in the church of my choice
Loving strangers in the dark
Looking for someone to give me what i lack
Searching for something 'til you showed me
The gun in my back
I'm human and i need it
And i must have my beliefs
I open myself to the love (yea)
I love you 'cause you showed me
A merciful release
I'm living this time and i know you gave
Me the reason
One reason (to believe), one reason (you're the one)
One reason (to believe), one reason (my baby)
One reason (it's all i need), one reason (to believe)
Trying to get faith from the $8.50 paperbacks
Hoping they'll show me the way (the way to what)
Man in a crisis, a young girl in his bed
She's trying to help him when she tells him
It's all in his head
I'm human and i need it
I must have my beliefs
I open myself to the love (yea)
I love you 'cause you showed me
A merciful release
I'm living this time and i know you gave
Me the reason
One reason (to believe), one reason (you're the one)
One reason (to believe), one reason (my baby)
One reason (it's all i need), one reason (to believe)
I bow to the east or i kneel to the west
It's a matter of faith
I'm the only one who has to believe it
One reason (to believe), one reason (you're the one)
One reason (to believe), one reason (my baby)
One reason (it's all i need), one reason (to believe)
I bow to the east or i kneel to the west
It's a matter of faith
I'm the only one who has to believe it
One reason (to believe), one reason (you're the one)
One reason (to believe), one reason (my baby)
One reason (it's all i need), one reason (to believe)

Something Tells Me
Tonight I watch you in your sleep
Wondering what dark secrets you keep
Away from me
A careless word falls from your lips
A time and place that somehow slips
From a memory
I feel my way through darkness
But I trust in where your heart is
Cause each time I close my eyes
I can see better
I dream that we share our lives
Now and forever
Call it faith or just a feeling
Something tells me to believe in you
I feel you near but youre not there
And I feel quiet despair
Of what I might do
I hear a voice inside of me
That cries through the uncertainty
That I feel for you
There are no answers
But Ill take my chances
Cause each time I close my eyes
I can see better
I dream that we share our lives
Now and forever
Call it faith or just a feeling
Something tells me to believe in you
Something tells me (I believe in you)
Something tells me (you know I believe in you)
Everytime I close my eyes
Oh you know I believe in you
Something tells me

A Reason
Picture's of you in a evening gown
lost like a king without his crown
here I am, I abide
some day for you to be by my side
longing for your every touch
these feeling's so abrupt
there in your arms I would like to hide
lost only in your world forever
with dreams shared together
never to be absense
My heart so erupt
you took away every dejection
took me another direction
erased away every acrimony
that kept me so desolate
for you I would do the same
in this moment of essence
it just seems so decorous
in these times of despair
you gave me a reason to be
in times of regret
Only love could kill a demon
that's why you're my salvation
you taught me how to love
gave me a reason to care
a reason to move on
to look to the skies above
a reason to share
one more reason to dance
a reason to call out your name
Your heart and body abused
feeling you were used
still you were the one to apologize
with sadness in your eyes
torn and bruised
no more will you live in shame
Like peacocks that prance
and strut upon this stage
you keep me in a trance
gave a reason for one more chance
as we turn another page
I could love you so much
in a heaven so glorious

Still Waiting
So am I still waiting
For this world to stop hating
Can't find a good reason
Can't find hope to believe in
Drop dead a bullet to my head
Your words are like a gun in hand
You can't change the state of the nation
We just need some motivation
Three times casino eviction
Just lies and more contradiction
So tell me what would you say
I'd say its up: to me
So am I still waiting
For this world to stop hating
Can't find a good reason
Can't find hope to believe in
Ignorance and Understanding
We're the first ones to jump in line
Out of step for what we believe in
But whos left? To start the pleading
How far will we take this
It's not hard to see through the sickness
So tell me what would you say
I'd say its up: to me
So am I still waiting
For this world to stop hating
Can't find a good reason
Can't find hope to believe in
This can't last forever
Time won't make things better
I feel so alone
Can't help myself
And no one knows
If this is worthless
Tell me: so
What have we done
We're in a war that can't be won
This can't be real
I don't know what to feel
So am I still waiting
For this world to stop hating
Can't find a good reason
Can't find hope to believe in
So am I still waiting
For this world to stop hating
Can't find a good reason
Can't find hope to believe in

Spin, Spin (New York Remake Version)
So fine, so fine the web you spin,
I come too close and I'm caught again!
In the web of wild design,
I do not know what fate is mine!
All the day sit and spin,
Spin your web and you draw me in.
Spin, spin, spin, spin!
And my daddy said when I was young,
"Beware the web of love, my son,
To be in love is to be insane,
Make an old man groan, a young man pain!"
All the day, sit and spin,
Spin your web and you draw me in.
Spin, spin, spin, spin!
Then I did go and the time did fly,
Many a true love passed me by.
And then you came like a blinding storm,
I landed in your web so warm,
Spin your web and you draw me in.
Spin, spin, spin, spin!
So fine, so fine the web you spin,
I come too close and I'm caught again!
In the web of wild desire,
And I cannot control the fire!
All the day sit and spin,
You spin your web and you draw me in.

The Reason
I'm not a perfect person
There's many things I wish I didn't do
But I continue learning
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know
I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is you
I'm sorry that I hurt you
It's something I must live with everyday
And all the pain I put you through
I wish that I could take it all away
And be the one who catches all your tears
Thats why I need you to hear
I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is You [x4]
I'm not a perfect person
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know
I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is you
I've found a reason to show
A side of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do
And the reason is you

A reason to live
A man's reason to live is his very reason to die. His reason to live is his reason to sacrifice by his reason to love. His reason to love is his reason to die. If he died it would be a great sacrifice by reason of his faith. Then that reason of faith is substantiated if that love is good. Therefore his faith is purposeful.
A dangerous man has no reason to live and therefore no reason to love as all is lost. If that man has no love he has no reason for faith and he has no reason of faith because there is no love. He will give up his life easily. Look at the ones who love you and you will have the reason to live. That reason to live is what makes you believe in life. Therefore by reason of love you have faith and by reason of faith you have life. - John 17: 3

Beyond All Reason
I love you beyond all reason
My love, my sweet, my soul devout
For you are all that is beautiful
To the eye of my hearts mind
And what more could make me feel
Such pining and longing as you
When I look upon your smile
These eyes windows to my soul
Look inside and see your reflection
For all I choose to see is you my love
You who I call all beautiful
Of the fairest heart and gentle nature
You are the love personified in verse
As near perfect as I dare to speak
And what reason or understanding exists
In the throws of such unrelenting thought
No, there is none I know of
All that there is, is an exclamation
I love you beyond all reason

Stronger Than The Night
(graham russell, michael sherwood, david young)
Tonite you are the world to me, part of the mystery
And we dont need a reason to love
Say youll never go, thats all I need to know
And when you close your eyes, Ill still be here
And if the world falls
You will be the only reason to love
Ill find my way
One heart may lie, one kiss may die
But we live, live and learn to fly
Beyond the darkest sky
Stronger than the night
If you hold me now, all that I feel is yours
Cos youre the only reason to love
What you are to me, is all that you need to be
And when you touch the stars, I will be there
And when the world falls away
I will be your only reason to love
Ill find my way
One heart may lie, one kiss may die
But we live, live and learn to fly
Beyond the darkest sky
Stronger than the night
One heart may lie, one kiss may die
But we live, live and learn to fly
Beyond the darkest sky
Stronger than the night

One Good Reason
Just give me one good reason
I know somehow, theres got to be one
I wasnt born every minute of every day
I never feel this way
I fought hard to keep my freedom
But when I think of things that weve done
I give what I keep, and I keep what I give away
Is this a good sign, Im on a thin line
One good reason is all I need
Say the word and Ill cut you free
What was nothing just yesterday
Could be something thats here to stay
One good reason and I might go either way
Give me some indication
Its not my imagination
Something is born every minute of every day
Something could come my way
I just need one good reason
To make me stay instead of leaving
I never knew how to be any other way
Maybe theres still hope
Im on a tight rope
One good reason is all I need
To take the heart that is tempting me
Make a move that could change your life
Never know if its wrong or right
One good reason is all I need tonight
It just takes one good reason
My body sweats, my hands are freezing
I dont make decisions like this every single day
What do I have to say
Just give me one good reason
Give me one good reason

Do It For Love
Hall And Oates-Do It For Love
I would fly ten thousand miles
In the pouring rain
Just to see your face
I'd bare my soul to a total stranger
Just to say your name
And I'm not ashamed
Just to love you into every morning
I would change my name
And run away
I won't do it for money
I won't do it for pride
I won't do it to please somebody else
If it don't feel right
But I'll do it for you
And at least I'll try
I don't need any other reason
Than I feel it deep inside
I'll Do It For Love
I would write your name across the sky
So the world could see
What you mean to me
I'd sing songs at the top of my voice
In an empty room
Just to dance with you
And to love you into every morning
I'll leave the world behind
And I'll slow down time
I won't do it for money
I won't do it for pride
I won't do it to please somebody else
If it don't feel right
But I'll do it for you
And at least I'll try
I don't need any other reason
Than I feel it deep inside
I'll Do It For Love
What I do for love can take us anywhere at all
