Beyond The Sunset--hank Williams
Should you go first and I remain, to walk the road alone
Ill live in memorys garden dear, with happy days weve known
In spring Ill wait for roses red, when faith the lilacs bloom
And in early fall when brown leaves fall,
Ill catch a glimpse of you
Should you go first and I remain, for battles to be fought
Each thing youve touched along the way, will be a hallowed spot
Ill hear your voice ill see your smile
Though blindly I may grope
The memory of your helping hand, will buoy me on with hope
(c)beyond the sunset oh blissful (g)morning
When with our saviour, heaven is be(c)gun
Earths toiling ended, oh glorious (f)dawning
Beyond the (c)sunset (g)when day is (c)done
Should you go first and I remain, to finish with the scroll
No lessening shadows shall ever creep in
To make this life seem droll
Weve known so much of happiness, weve had our cup of joy
And memory is one gift of god, that death cannot destroy
I want to know each step you take, that I may walk the same
For someday down that lonely road, youll hear me call your name
Should you go first and I remain, one thing ill have you do
Walk slowly down that long long path, for soon ill follow you
(c)in that fair homeland well know no (f)parting
Beyond the (c)sunset (g)for ever (c)more

Keep On Trying
Everybody is lazy
Nobody wants to do anything
Everyones crazy
At times I think Ive had enough of it
Living together
Its not a easy thing to begin
Making life a little better
Takes the power of your second please
Ive been around to love
Im trying hard, I know
I havent reach my ball
Ill do what I have to do
Someday well see it through
As long as I have you
Weve got to keep on pushing
(weve got to keep on pushing)
Weve got to keep on trying
(weve got to keep on trying)
Weve got to keep on pushing
(weve got to keep on pushing)
Weve got to keep on trying
(weve got to keep on trying)
Weve got to keep on pushing
(weve got to keep on pushing)
Weve got to keep on trying

Weve got to keep on pushing
(weve got to keep on pushing)
Weve got to keep on trying
(weve got to keep on trying)

Been Here Once Before
Got your back up against the wall
Now you know that after all
When you make mistakes like that
Theres no more turning back
Now weve gone and weve lost our heads
Youre better off just playing dead
Why you wearing that black hat
Theres no point in turning back
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before
Well all you know is you need to win
Should you go when your call comes in
Once you see all the blood that flows
I dont think youll be winning more
Now I thought that was all in the past
And that beast would come back last
Once again we are at war
Yes I know weve been here before
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before...thats for sure
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before
And I dont think youll be winning more
Weve been here once before
Weve been here thats for sure
I dont think youll be winning more
Weve been here once before
Weve been here thats for sure
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before...thats for sure
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before
And I dont think youll be winning more
Weve been here once before
Weve been here thats for sure
I dont think youll be winning more
Weve been here once before
Weve been here thats for sure
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before
Been here once before...

Before Nightfall
sunset crashes down
on houses, I hear voices
of the day around me
the alarm clock from
this morning
“have you found
where you are going
to get gone, will you
go, choose wisely
this day is nearly ending”
I can’t choose
this day is over, the
voices are only
leaves falling
from trees
I walk into the sunset
still crashing down
into shadows, I hear
your voice above
everything
the sky’s on fire dear
we should run while
we still can

Crazy Jane On God
That lover of a night
Came when he would,
Went in the dawning light
Whether I would or no;
Men come, men go;
All things remain in god.
All things remain in god.
Banners choke the sky;
Men-at-arms tread;
Armoured horses neigh
In the narrow pass:
All things remain in god.
All things remain in god.
I had wild jack for a lover;
Though like a road
That men pass over
My body makes no moan
But sings on:
All things remain in god.
All things remain in god.
Before their eyes a house
That from childhood stood
Uninhabited, ruinous,
Suddenly lit up
From door to top:
All things remain in god.
All things remain in god.
Oh, that lover of a night
Came when he would,
Went in the dawning light
Whether I would or no;
Men come, men go;
All things remain in god.
All things remain in god.
All things remain in god.
All things remain in god.
All things remain in god.
All things remain in god.

Forever Lonely Road
As I walk along the forever lonely road
Thoughts of you collide in my mind, and I can't get them out
As I walk along the forever lonely road
My eyes start to play tricks on me, and I believe them
As I walk along the forever lonely road
I reach out, and my hand touches your skin
As I walk along the forever lonely road
I can hear your voice calling to me, and I can't resist
As i walk along the forever lonely road
I get closer to you, and I'm unable to turn around
As we walk along the open road
Life isn't so lonely anymore, because of you

The Long, Lone Road
YOU that had the soft path
And the lights, brightly glowing,
Your laugh is very still, and your hands are very chill,
And where may you be going?
'Though the light of dawn be breaking,
And the birds of morning call —
All the flowers and trees awaking —
'Tis the long road I'm taking,
The long road, the lone road that has no end at all.'
You that have the red gold,
And the gift of money-making,
Since your journey has no end, sure you'll need a heap to spend,
And how much will you be taking?
'O there's little need for spending
When the grey shadows fall,
And the twilight lies unending
On the way I'll soon be wending —
The long road, the lone road that has no end at all.'
You that had the choice wines,
In the frail cups glowing —
Is there any need to ask if you'll take a golden flask
On the road you'll be going?
'When I walk, a spirit shrinking,
Where the grey shadows fall,
There'll be little need, I'm thinking,
For the rich delights of drinking
On the long road, the lone road that has no end at all!'
You that sought the rich man
And the ladies — jewelled, glowing —
Since the way is far to wend, sure you'll need a true-heart friend
On the road you'll be going?
'Nay! — and not an ear shall heed me
Though I call, call, call,
When the beckoning shadows lead me;
And no prayer of heart shall speed me
On the long road, the lone road that has no end at all!'
You that had the hard heart
And the selfish soul uncaring,
Is there any deed at all that shall let a comfort fall
On the road you'll be going?
'Hush! the lights of day have ended,
And the grey shadows fall,
And, by no sweet thought attended,
I must wander, unbefriended,
Down the long road, the lone road that has no end at all!'

Dont Walk Away
Why do I say, dont walk away
Youll be the way you were before, when you dont want me anymore
Dont turn around, dont ever leave, a lonely room where empty days
Are gathering to meet me when youre gone, gone
How in the world will I go on
(dont walk away) all you gotta do is stay
(dont walk away) all you gotta do is stay (dont walk away)
Chorus:
Dont walk away (dont walk away), dont say goodbye (dont say goodbye)
Dont turn around (dont turn around), dont let it die (dont let it die)
When shadows fall (when shadows fall), when day is done (when day is done)
All through the night (all through the night), all of my life (all of my life)
Dont walk away
Is it a dream, when will it end
When everything weve ever known has ended and Im all alone
Where will I go, where will I be, the feelings that Ive never shown
Maybe Ill find the answer when youre gone, gone
How in the world will I go on
(dont walk away) all you gotta do is stay
(dont walk away) all you gotta do is stay (dont walk away)
Chorus repeats 3x

So I Can Smile Again
Show me the point of the surise
So I can trace my path to the point of the sunset
It pays me more this way in life
So I can never miss my path to success again
Show me the goodness of love
One by one, day after day
I could love all around, again and again
And see the goodness so great I‘ve come to realise
Show me the way to greatness
I would strive so hard
To make it so great on my own
Just with a guide or two from you my friends
So I can smile again
In all adversities and give thanks to you
The one most high above
See me so filled with life day after day
So I can smile again
In times of plenty
And struggle so hard in times of few
Step after step, I could build a lasting edifice you know
So I can smile again
And walk so majestically and gracefully
With all my achievements this far
Still hoping I could lend a helping hand when the need arises
So I can smile again
And walk up to you, my friends in Diaspora
With my hands so wide to embrace all
Peace is all we need and one world we must choose to remain
So I can simile again
After each blessing I receive from you, my Lord
Just can’t thank you enough
But a promise I‘ve made to be yours forever

Lonely Road
Tis dark and lonely,
Walking here alone.
This cold stony road
I have made my own.
Tis where the brave few
Dare to venture thru.
They walk here in search-
Search of life anew.
The coldness chills inside;
I grit my teeth and hold on.
Though sad and long, I make this road my own
Tis lonely out here,
To lean on, there's far and few.
So many times, i cry,
Screaming, 'Where are you? '
I want to turn around,
Quit and walk away.
The pressure is too much-
Too much for me to stay.
But then i see, o'er the hill
A faint glimering light.
Hope springs eternal
In the darkest of nights.
You come close and
I feel you take my hand,
Pull me up, help me fight.
You help me stand.
'My child, ' you whisper,
'I walked this road, still do.
Only now i walk it
Just to help you.'
I feel his might all around
As with faith renewed i push on.
Raise my hands high
As i cry,
'This lonely road i make my own.'
Let everyone leave me, l
Let them walk away.
I'm getting out of here, I wasn't meant to stay.
This lonely road is the only way home.
Walk it I must, even if I'm alone.
So hear it now, as I toil by, this lonely road, I make my own!
It's pain and hardship
I will do my best to bear,
I will keep pushing on
When there's no one nowhere.
Cause this lonely road
I made my own.

Road To Nowhere
I tried to hang on for as long as I could
But now I can see that it just aint no good
Our love it has wasted
Right down to the core
Whatever we had
We dont have anymore
Youve got to get off a road to nowhere
Youve got to get off a road to nowhere
Well I tried and I tried to make things work out right
But I guess were two people who cant help but fight
Your eyes they are open
And oh so are mine
We both need our freedom
Dont you think its about time
Im trying to get off this road to nowhere
Im trying to get off this road to nowhere
(lead)
Thank you for the good times weve had in the past
But we both know enough to know good times dont last
Baby youre just no good for me
And Im no good for you
Lets not waste our time talkin
We both know what to do
Weve got to get off this road to nowhere
Its time to get off this road to nowhere
Youve got to get off this road to nowhere
Weve got to get off this road to nowhere

I Believe (In You)
I believe in you
If you believe in me
And I believe that faith and hope and love brings harmony
United once again
Well stand there hand in hand
And put love back together just the way
I believe in you
If you believe in me
And I believe that faith and hope and love brings harmony
United once again
Well stand there hand in hand
And put love back together just the way weve always planned
I still remember how it used to be
Seclusion in our love so deep
A world to touch that meant so much to me
And promises we couldnt hope to keep
The cool romance and nights of ecstasy
Slip slowly by on paper wings
The cold reality of you and me
Came creeping like a storm cloud gathering
I believe in you
If you believe in me
And I believe that faith and hope and love brings harmony
United once again
Well stand there hand in hand
And put love back together just the way weve always planned
The balance of our love hangs tenderly
A careful step through broken glass, yeah
One thoughtless word could kill a memory
And days we loved together in the past
I give and take I do my very best
To keep this vision that Ive seen
I give respect if you could just accept
There never really was a perfect me
I believe in you
If you believe in me
And I believe that faith and hope and love brings harmony
United once again
Well stand there hand in hand
And put love back together just the way weve always planned
You walk away and see yourself in retrospect
Remember all of loves first visions
Step aside try to see just what went wrong
Living together isnt easy all the time
I believe in you if you believe in me, oh
Theres still the chance that we can find romance, yeah
I know we can
I believe in you
If you believe in me
And I believe that faith and hope and love brings harmony
United once again
Well stand there hand in hand
And put love back together just the way weve always planned
I believe in you, if you believe in me
I believe in you, I believe in you...
United undivided...

Blue Orpheus
If you want to cry
You can always find something to cry about
Its so easy to be wise
Over someone elses tears
But you have a gift
That the rest of us just cant live without
And its something in your voice
When you tell us how you feel
cause weve all loved something and lost it
And its burning my heart
I cant open my mouth and just let it out
But when I hear my blue orpheus sing
I know that life is a wonderful thing
Somewhere theres love and perpetual spring
I know life is a wonderful thing
Seems so long ago
The sound of your joy filled the atmosphere
We can make it on our own
But the road is so rocky and steep
And when you feel lost
No one tells you what you need to hear
And the only dream you have
Is the one thats in your sleep
cause we soon forget what were here for
I need someone to say hes got dreams of his own
Ill know Im not alone
I want to hear my blue orpheus sing
Ill know that life is a wonderful thing
Somewhere theres love and perpetual spring
Ill know life is a wonderful thing
Sing
You will one day be together again
Though you can not see her
Sing
She is somewhere in the world

Your smile
Your smile is worth million
Your heart may be in trillion
What makes you so unique/
I see you in dreams when not awake
You are so dear and near
But we have no words from you to hear
I always worry for u and fear
Let no pain come to you o, dear
You stay happy wherever you are
You are so near though remain very far
You make us cry I don't know why?
I wish I had wings to fly?
Days are getting on close
You may be ready to pose
Clad in good suit to tie in nuptials
We may all stand to witness your initials
I pray God to offer you happy smile
You never suffer separation for while
You get helping hand when walk for mile
Can you preserve your smile not for sake of smile

The Times Youve Come
In the time weve known
That we each are a part of one another
Weve lost as much as we have won
And as our lives have grown
We have found that it only brings us pain
That hangs on to the things that we have done
Still I love the times youve come
When you went away
Taking all that Id built my false road on
I dropped my life and couldnt find the pieces
Now you come and go
And its hard but I feel my strength returning
Well see how far this new road reaches
Well see a little more each time we come
Now everybodys gonna tell you its not worth it
Everybodys gotta show you their own thing
You might try to find your way up around it
But the need for love will still remain
Now were lying here
So safe in the ruins of our pleasures
Laughter marks the place where we have fallen
And our lives are near
So it wouldnt occur to us to wonder
Is this the past or the future that is calling
You know Ive loved these times youve come.

Well you and i
Were buddies
And weve been since we first met
Me and you
Well weve sure been through
Our share of laughter and regret
Lord knows weve had our bad days
And more than once weve disagreed
But youve always been a friend to me
You can be so stubborn
Theres times I think you just like to fight
And I hope and pray
I live to see a day
When you say I might be right
And theres times Id rather kill you
Than listen to your honesty
But youve always been a friend to me
Youve always been

And show me its okay to be
Just the way I am

Twist Of Fate
(kipner/becket)
Do we deserve a second chance?
How did we fall into this circumstance?
We werent so straight and narrow
This is much more than we deserve
A higher voice has called the tune
Two hearts that lost the beat will now resume
The gift of life extension
By divine intervention
Its gotta be a strange twist of fate
Telling me that heaven can wait
Telling me to get it right this time
Life doesnt mean a thing
Without the love you bring
Love is what weve found
The second time around
Dont understand whats going on
Woke up this morning, all the hurt was gone
This is a new beginning
Im back in the land of the living
Its gotta be a strange twist of fate
Telling me that heaven can wait
Telling me to get it right this time
Life doesnt mean a thing
Without the love you bring
Love is what weve found
The second time around
Its gotta be a strange twist of fate
Telling me that heaven can wait
Oh, Im gonna get it right this time
Life doesnt mean a thing
Without the love you bring
Love is what weve found
The second time around
Its gotta be a strange twist of fate
Telling me that heaven can wait
You know, Im gonna get it right
Im gonna make it work this time
Life doesnt mean a thing
Without the love you bring
Love is what weve found
The second time around
Its gotta be a strange twist of fate
Telling me that heaven can wait
Life doesnt mean a thing
Without the love you bring
Love is what weve found

Lonely Road
Too much time thinking about all of my mistakes
My heart, my mind, my soul, my body ache
A hunger for, the loving arms of your embrace
I walk along the lonely road
I walk along the lonely road
My back is strong, girl
I carry the load
All the grinding time I pay the debt that's owed
I walk along the lonely road
Too much time thinking about everything that went wrong
I cry my eyes out every time I hear your song
I hope this path brings me back where I belong
I walk along the lonely road
I walk along the lonely road
My back is strong, girl
I carry the load
All the grinding time I pay the debt that's owed
I walk along the lonely road
Too much pride, for me to up and take the blame
Weep inside girl it's killing me with pain
Every night, I sleep I call your name
I walk along the lonely road
I walk along the lonely road
My back is strong girl
I carry the load
All the grinding time I pay the debt that's owed
I walk along the lonely road
I walk along the lonely road
My back is strong girl
I carry the load
All the grinding time I pay the debt that's owed
I walk along the lonely road
I walk along the lonely road
