Rain
seems like the hardest thing
a man can do
after a lifetime of battles,
triumphs and losses,
loving and losing...
is to dropp everything he has,
everything he knows, and
believes in
at the door...
and walk out into the rain...
alone and naked, with his
eyes, heart, and hands open,
and no expectations!

Here In My Heart
I keep on thinkin' I should be free
This time just leave it alone
With 17 reasons not to believe
Nothin' goes everybody knows like you always want it to be
But, here in my heart
There's a dream that's unbroken
And it get's in my way
But it won't be denied
Here in my heart the door is still open
Waiting for you to walk into my life (oohh oo-oo-ooh)
What I've been feelin' I can't explain
Lost in the muse of your eyes
An' I'm fallin' so hard
Just like the rain
Comes a time when ya cross the line and you know you got to believe
'Cos here in my heart
There's a dream that's unbroken
An' it gets in my way
But it won't be denied
Here in my heart the door is still open
Waiting for you to walk into my life
I know!
(That) I may never sleep again
'Till I see you (ooh oo-oo-ooh)
Oh, baby, I know (I know!)
Life is too short and I can't pretend
It's not about you (not about you)
Can't do without you
wooo oo-oo-ooh
Here in my heart
There's a dream that's unbroken
And it get's in my way (gets in my way)
But it won't be denied
Here in my heart (here in my heart)
The door is still open
Waiting for you to walk into my life
There's a dream that's unbroken
It gets in my way
But it won't be denied
Here in my heart (here in my heart)
The door is still open
Waiting for you to walk into my life
In my life (in my life)
In my life (in my life

She Believes In Love Again
I want her I need her
But I never let her know before
Kept her in the dark
Thought I lost her heart forever
She told me just show me
The feelings that you keep inside
And I promise that
We can put it back together
She believes in love again
She belives in me
Now weve gone far beyond
The way we used to be
And in her eyes from deep inside
She finally let me see
She believes in love again
She belives in me
I woke up I spoke up
And let her know the way I feel
Changes I could make
Wouldnt have to take a lifetime
She wants me she needs me
She always let me know before
And now its up to me
To give her all the things she needs the right way
She believes in love again
She belives in me
Now weve gone far beyond
The way we used to be
And in her eyes from deep inside
She finally let me see
She believes in love again
She belives in me
I just nearly blew it
How could I do it
I think about the pain I had put her through
God Im sorry
She said shed recover
If only Id love her
Shed open up her soul
And share her life with me
She believes in love again
She belives in me
Now weve gone far beyond
The way we used to be
And in her eyes from deep inside
She finally let me see
She believes in love again
She believes in me
In her eyes from deep inside
She finally let me see that
She believes in love again
She believes in me

Rain,rain
Why am I here if youre there
So far away its not fair
To be without you like this
I miss you more than you know
The nights are long
The days slow
Without the warmth of your kiss
Wish you were back here with me
Cause out my window
All is see is
Rain , rain in the sky
Everywhere I look my eyes see
Rain , rain fallin down
Crying as it hits the ground
Rain , rain in my heart
Every day that were apart
Rain , rain
Falling rain , rain
Rain , rain
Only rain , rain
The sun is strong when youre near
But when youre gone it disappears
Behind an ocean of blue
The telephones not good enough
It cant reach out it cant touch
Me like the way you do
Wish you would knock at my door
Cause only you can stop the pouring
Rain , rain in the sky
Everywhere I look my eyes see
Rain , rain fallin down
Crying as it hits the ground
Rain , rain in my heart
Every day that were apart
Rain , rain
Falling rain , rain
Rain , rain
Only rain , rain
Maybe ill go outside
And walk beneath the clouds
Pretend its you thats watching over me
This isnt the only thing that comes
Between us now
Baby soon well be together
Oooo
( everywhere I look I see rain )
( everywhere I look I see rain )
Rain
( everywhere I look I see rain )
Everywhere I look I see rain
( everywhere I look I see rain )
Rain
( everywhere I look I see rain )
Rain
( rain , rain in the sky )
( everywhere I look my eyes see rain )
Rain
( rain falling down )
Down
( crying as it hits the ground )
Dont , dont let it hit the ground
( rain , rain in my heart everyday that were apart )
( rain , rain )
Rain
( falling rain, rain )
Rain
( rain, rain )
Everywhere I look I see rain
Everywhere I look I see rain
But I dont see you
Youre not near me
I need you ooo
Rain
Itll never be the same
If you dont stop the rain

Let My Love Open The Door
Pete Townshend) (various dates)
The people keep repeatin'
The children follow along
Everybody keeps from changin'
And you could say you did enough...
Let my love open your door... (3x)
To your heart...
Let my love open the door (2x)
When everything feels all over
Everybody seems unkind
I'll give you a four-leaf clover
Take all worries out of your mind
Let my love open your door... (3x)
To your heart...
Let my love open the door...
To your heart...
Let my love open the door...
Have the only key to your heart...
I can stop you from fallin' apart
Tried to say in my own way...
Somebody give me the chance to say...
Let my love open your door...
It's all I'm lookin' for
And erase yourself from misery
There's only one thing that's gonna set you free...
When trouble really falls you...
Don't let it tie you down
Love can cure your problems
You're so lucky I'm around
Let my love open your door... (3x)
To your heart...
Let my love open the door...
To your heart...
Let my love open the door... (5x)
Oh...to your heart...
Oh...baby, I know I said, I said, I said, I said, I said, I said...
...I said, I said, I said, I said, I said, I said...
Oh...na na na...let my love open the door...
Let my love... (2x

Morning Prayer
may my feet
follow my heart,
may the door to my heart
open both ways.
may my hands
always be open,
may my mouth
support my ears
by silence.
may my eyes
remain naked,
may my soul be connected.
may my thoughts,
words, and actions,
be the breath of compassion.

Living Without Your Love
(david wolfert / steve nelson)
If I passed you on the street
Would you look the other way
Afraid that we would meet
Could it be that its down to tears?
After all the love we knew
It was so hard losing you
Now I feel it coming on
That emptiness again
cause Ive been living without your love
Just making believe I can still get by
Paying the price inside, oh
God knows the hardest thing Ill ever do
Losing you, ooh, oh
I try to put the thoughts away
But I see your face before me
As you turn to walk away
And I can force a smile
cause it turned out so wrong
After feeling so right so long
And Im just not ready for another day alone
cause Ive been living without your love
Just making believe I can still get by
Paying the price inside, oh
God knows the hardest thing Ill ever do
Losing you
Yeah, eah
I feel it coming on
That emptiness again
cause Ive been living without your love, oh
Just making believe I can still get by
Paying the price inside
Lord knows the hardest thing Ill ever do
Losing you
Im, just living
Oh, living without your love
Ill get by
But Im paying, yeah
Without your love
I cant get back to much more love
Oh no
Im not ready for
Im not ready for
Love and loneliness
Living, oh yes, Im living without your love
Ill just get by
Im just getting by
I cant stand it much longer
Ah, living, living without

Every Drop Of Rain!
i am too old (and stubborn)
to change direction now!
my feet, though tired and weary,
have walked this path for years.
my battles have left me stripped
of the things i didnt need....
of the things that had hold of me,
the things that had no value...
knowing that i know no more
than what i have felt and seen.
knowing that i know no less
than who i've touched, where i've been...
eyes grown dim still fixed,
on that light on a faraway hill.
hands and heart steady open,
giving as fast as i receive....
with gratitude for each moment,
passionate hunger that never fades...
i'd say farewell but i'm not leaving,
i'll remain as long as the wind,
in every dropp of rain!

I Will Walk With You
Cover your heart, put on your mask
Dance with me slowly, is all that I ask
What is the hardest, falling or not
Knowing just where to begin or start
I will walk, I will walk, with you
I will walk with you
Lay down beside me, tell me your dreams
The view from inside is not what it seems
But no one will hurt you, not like before
Your last thread of forgiveness wont reach the door, noooo
I will walk, I will walk, with you
I will walk with you
I will walk, I will walk, with you
I will walk with you
I will walk, I walk with you
Pull up the curtains
Watch the night fall
Who has the answers when nobody calls
Now rely on fury, blame the sun rise last
Cause I was in love with you, but I cant change the past
I will walk, I will walk with you
I will walk with you (with you)
I will walk, I will walk with you
I will walk with you

Love In Stereo
First time I went to California
Couldn't believe my eyes
Skirts were so short
Nights were so long
Thought that I would probably die, yeah
Fresh out of Luckenbach, Texas
I didn't expect that pair
Both of them had one thing on their mind
Both of them were willing to share
I never had to women before
But i'm an open minded person
So baby lock that door
We're loving in stereo
Its love
Love in stereo
Ohh, how can anything feel so good?
Loving from the bottom
Loving from the top
Loving from the left and the right
Well I'm a lover not a fighter
But it looks like I'm gonna have to fight
To keep from losing my mind, mind mind
I never had two women before
But I'm an open minded person
So baby lock that door
It's love in stereo
Well first time I went to California
I couldn't believe my eyes
Skirts were so short
Nights were so long
Girls were coming two at a time
Yeah love
We're loving in stereo
And it's love
It's love in stereo
And it's love
Ooh ooh, we're loving in stereo
And it's love
How can anything feel so good?
It's love in stereo

You're Only Losing Your Heart
Don't do anything I wouldn't do
Pass me anyway, like I'm a fool for you
Passionate anyway
Walkin' out the back door
Used to be alive until just now
It's just becoming unreal
You're only losing your heart
It's nothing critical
You won't believe it till it starts
You're only losing your heart
It's not unusual
It's only tearing you apart
Don't do anything I wouldn't do
Pass me anyway, lie like a fool
Laugh at me anyway
Walkin' out the back door
Used to be alive until just now
It's just becoming unreal
You're only losing your heart
It's nothing critical
You won't believe it till it starts
You're only losing your heart
It's not unusual
It's only tearing you apart
Solo
Oh, how can I be
So far away
Without a reason?
Should I know
How not to lose?
How can I not
Follow you anymore?
But I'm lost
Take me away!
Takin' all my time, make me a choice
Passionate anyway
Walkin' out the back door
Used to be alive until just now
It's just becoming unreal
You're only losing your heart
It's nothing critical
You con't believe it till it starts
You're only losing your heart
You can't believe it to be
The thing that's tearing you apart
You're only losing your heart
It's nothing visual
You won't believe it till it starts
You're only losing your heart
The thing you're dreamin' of is
The thing that's tearing you apart
Even though I'm wasting my time

A Rainy Day Enjoyed
Waking this morning is unhurried, even slow –
the weather is saying something to the body.
The forecast for the day, it seems, is rain.
Time, then, for that ease of human living –
a day of light and measured pleasures,
to be indulged in, not too briefly,
not too long; to love each thing at home within itself;
open all the windows, and perhaps the doors –
let in that rain-washed air, conditioned, cool,
be inside and yet outside; it once was said
that rain comes only after sacrifice;
this rain is holy.
Idly open a drawer not opened for some time;
find there a children’s toy or game;
live for some minutes as a child again,
smelling rain as you once smelled it,
full of the promise of a lifetime not yet lived.
Be that child again, in this loving house;
love this rainy day as children do,
living life the way it’s offered; all
too present to need future dreams;
let the golden present sift gently through your fingers,
you, unhurried, loving life
as it now, today, loves you.

The Hardest Thing
we bothknow that i shouldn't be here
this is wrong
and baby it's killing me killing youboth of us tryin' to be strong
i've got somewhere else to be
promises to keep
someone else who loves me
and trusts me fast asleep
i've made up my mind
there's no turning back
she's been good to me
and she deserves better than that
it's the hardest thing
i'll ever have to do
to look you in the eye
and tell you i don't love you
it's the hardest thing
i'll ever have to lie
to show no emotion
when you start to cry
i can't let u see
what you mean to me when my hands are tied
and my hearts not free
we're not meant to be
it's the hardest thing
i'll ever have to do
to turn around and walk away
pretending i don't love you
i know that we'll meet again
fate has a place and time
so you can get on with your life
i've got to be cruel to be knd
like Dr. Zhivago
all my love i'll be sending
and you'll never know
'cause there can be no happy ending

Rain from Heaven
rain rain rain rain
the murmer of rain
the sweet song of rain
the wind along with rain
the nostalgic feeling of rain
which can be enjoyed with a sad song
now its raining! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
the dropp that fallen in my face
let it be the last dropp before I die
and let that dropp clean all my guilt
so that my soul will not see hell
then you might hear my sound
along with the next rain; Says
'the rain on that day was from heaven'

Get Out
What if theres no more fun to have ?
And all Ive got is what I had
What if I have forgotten how ?
Cut my losses and get out now
Get out right now
Theres something stronger than me
Theres something I dont want to see
A new thing growing in me
It is the hardest thing to do
To watch it grow on top of you
And see youre just like everyone
No fun

My Heart Will Go On (Titanic Theme) - Celine Dion
Every night in my dreams,
I see you, I feel you,
That is how I know you go on.
Far across the distance,
And spaces between us,
You have come to show you go on.
Near, far, wherever you are,
I believe that the heart does go on.
Once more you open the door,
And you're here in my heart,
And my heart will go on and on.
Love can touch us one time,
And last for a lifetime,
And never let go till we're one.
Love was when I loved you,
One true time I hold to,
In my life we'll always go on.
Near, far, wherever you are,
I believe that the heart does go on.
Once more you open the door,
And you're here in my heart,
And my heart will go on and on.
There is some love that will not go away.
You're here, there's nothing I fear,
And I know that my heart will go on.
We'll stay forever this way,
You are safe in my heart,
And my heart will go on and on.

Determination
for it is said my friend
that there is no such thing as
a hard rock
to a constant dripping of
the dropp of rain
there is not such thing as an
impenetrable void
to a loving heart
there is no such obstruction strong enough
to stop a flowing river
no rock stays forever

The Hand Of Love
The young woman intertwines her hands with her older man
Smiling laughing at his funny charming jokes
The cool rain is the only relief her boiling heart has
His hand softly squeezes hers
He smiles, she smiles
The sun in both of their eyes
Warming them from the inside out
He touches the side of her face
With the hands of steal
But the touch of silk
With stars in her eyes
And the rain soak their innocents
He gently presses his lips to her hand
Baby you are me unspoken princess
She sighs
Has he’s still holding her delicate hand
He be believes that is made out of gold
He knows she is the other half of his soul
He says I love you to her heart as no words are spoken
Looking into her green eyes
That night in the warm rain of mystery

Hardest Part Is The Night (live, Japan)
In the heat of the street of the city
A young boy hides the pain
And he walks so tall, trying to hang on
But he knows he's going down again
I know he's going down...
Darkness fades he's the prince of his city
In a place where they all know your name
You can see in their eyes life so paralyzed.
Your just a pawn in a losin' game
You lose at life it ain't no game
Hear their cries
The hardest part is the night
(In the night, hear their cries, in the night)
Stay alive
The hardest part is the night, it's the night, it's the night...
All alone in a place where the lonely
They all have to walk through the rain
And they dance on the edge where you only
Only pray that it has to end
That the night ain't no friend
Hear their cries
The hardest part is the night
(In the night, hear their cries, in the night)
Stay alive
The hardest part is the night, it's the night, it's the night...
(X 2)
These four walls they could tell you some stories
About lying and dying and fame
There's a price that you pay for the glory
About losing and choosing and pain.
Hear their cries
The hardest part is the night
In the night, hear their cries, in the night
Stay alive
In the night, stay alive, in the night
