Soul Experience
Be yourself and live a little,
Dont bother painting your face;
Tomorrow it may rain and colors run,
Better it quench the flowers thirst.
Dont be afraid to live a little,
Dont be afraid of the people that belittle our love,
Oh our love.
Open up your thoughts and listen to others,
Your fellow man may surprise you;
He offers a unique item,
Soul experience, help yourselves to each other.
Dont be afraid to live a little,
Dont be afraid of the people that belittle our love,
Oh our love.
Just be yourself.
Just be yourself.
Oh our love, oh our love.

Ask For More
I feel you
I hold you
I taste you
As you travel
Deep into my senses
So refreshing
Soon you will open up the door
Feel my eternal love
So pour yourself right into me
Too much is never enough
I love love
You need love
Dont be afraid
Just ask for more
I need love
You have love
Dont be afraid
Just ask for more
Come feel love
Come taste love
Just ask for more
Give the love a chance to speak to you
And its voice will bring passion
As I taste it
In your silence
I feel the love
When were having fun
So pour yourself right into me
Too much is never enough
I love love
You need love
Dont be afraid
Just ask for more
I need love
You have love
Dont be afraid
Just ask for more
You deserve love
Touch this love
Dont be afraid
Just ask for more
Come feel love
Come taste love

The Ikon
On a day like no other
In a time unique, in a place divine
Keep your eye on the ikon
Shining in the light of eternal mind.
I went to sleep a blind man
But when I awoke I saw
The legions of the lonely
See their faces, hear them call.
See how they hang on
Each one in a world of his own design
Listen to the ikon
Ringing in the sound of eternal mind.
And the music plays forever
And it captures every ear
And the sound of barriers crashing down
Is the sweet harmony you hear.
Still, be still
To strong, so be still
Much too long, come down
Be still, look around
Listen here, be still
Hear the sound, be still.
Still we are here
We are still
Will we sing sweet
Sing we will
Still we are here
We are still
Nil is a fear all is nil
Still we are here we are still
Spill it let go let it spill.
The question comes to mind
About what should be done
And how much of the old will die
That the new may be begun
But you dont have to be afraid
Of being alone with nowhere to run.
You dont have to be afraid
To look yourself in the eye
You dont have to be afraid not to lie.
Someone knows who you are
Someone watches over you
Someone knows how you feel
And someone feels the same.
So you dont have to be afraid
Never fear, for you are living in eternal mind
For those who still recoil
For those who fear the pain
Of peering oer the edge of
A new and different plane.
You dont have to be afraid
Whenever you go you come back again
So you dont have to be afraid
We live and we die
You dont have to be afraid to know why.
You dont have to be afraid
Whenever you go you come back again
So you dont have to be afraid
We live and we die
You dont have to be afraid to know why.

Conversations: Angels And Demons (Part Three)
i sat down to talk to a
young gay man the day after
Amendment One passed...
'so, what do you do now? '
'i dont know... dont know whether
i'm more saddened or angry. and
i dont want to be either.'
'why do you think it passed? '
'i dont know if the majority
of people here are afraid of
people like me, or they just
hate me. for what i believe,
for my lifestyle, for whomever
i choose to love...
and the thing is... there's nothing
to be afraid of... i'm a human being
just like them.
and i dont hate them... what they believe
or how they live... i dont hate them
for loving. and i dont hate their God...
i believe in God just as much as they do! '
'it's funny you mention the God thing...
i felt like it was the underlying problem.
their definition of what God is, and what
God allows... and their sense of 'moral
judgement'...they're building walls when
they need to be building bridges! '
'if we're all created in God's image, and
yet we are diverse... then what's the problem? '
'all human beings have the right to love,
and to be loved... i think what we're most
afraid of is something in ourselves we dont
understand... i dont think we know who we are,
or who God is...'
'we're all just human beings, and we need to
live in a way that is respectful... that's
the only real answer...'
'agreed... wish you luck! '
enough said!

Intro:
(live and learn)
Dont be afraid to
Do what you must do
(live and learn)
1a:
You can never undo
Whatevers been done
Youre so afraid
That true love may never come
Maybe tomorrow will bring
Happiness in
And in a little while
You could learn to smile
Again, oh, oh
But never give up
Thats a big mistake
Be true to your heart
And even if it breaks
You can still
1b:
Love another day
Find another way
Take a little time
And you could find
That one day your heart
Will have a home
Chorus:
Live and learn
When the morning comes
Youll see things in a different light
Give a little time
Dont be afraid to
Do what you must do
Its all up to you
To live and learn
2:
Whats done is done
Past is past
You can look around
But you can never go back, keep on
Living your life
Living it right
Take a little time
And you could find
That one day your heart
Will have a home
Chorus:
To live and learn
(dont be afraid to
Do what you must do
Its all up to you)
Dont be afraid to
Do what you must do
Its all up to you

Do what you must do
Its all up to you)
To live and learn

Molten Love
Written by dewey bunnell, 1973
Found on hat trick and highway.
First she says kings
Then he says aces
It gets pretty hard for a lady to tell
The hearts from the faces
Dont be afraid I know I will bring you home
Dont be afraid I know I will bring you home
To me, to me, me
I want to carry you across a threshold of fireflies
And violet stones, all alone (all alone)
Volcanic silver clouds fill pools and canyons around us
All around (all around)
But molten love
Cooled by your kisses
Take me down, take me down
So, dont be afraid I know I will bring you home
Dont be afraid I know I will bring you home
To me, me, to me, me
Molten love
Cooled by your kisses
Take me down, take me down
Yes, molten love
Cooled by your kisses
Take me down, take me down
So, dont be afraid I know I will bring you home
No, dont be afraid I know I will bring you home
Oh, dont be afraid I know I will bring you home
Dont be afraid I know I will bring you home
No, dont be afraid I know I will bring you home ...

Im Afraid
Afraid of the dark
Afraid of the light
Dont walk in the park
Afraid of the night
Afraid to get stabbed
Or hit by a car
Afraid of the streets
Afraid to go far
Afraid of the sky
Dont like to be high
I dont want to fall
Afraid I might die
Afraid of my friends
Dont like to be seen
Afraid to be nice
Afraid to be mean
Afraid that the wind
Will knock over trees
Afraid of my dog
Afraid of his fleas
[chorus]
Peace of mind
Hard to keep
Hard to find
Look ahead
Look behind
Looking for
Peace of mind
Cant relax
Cant unwind
Deep inside
Secret mind
Oh no!
Afraid to be caught
Afraid to be free
Afraid to make love
Afraid of vd
Afraid of the rain
Dont like to get wet
Afraid to take drugs
They make me forget
Afraid that the air
Will make me get sick
Afraid that a girl
Will cut off my....oh!
Someone tell me how it happened
Why my head is so confused
Can it be my circuits finally blew a fuse
Can a human being really change into a humanoid
Or is my imagination paranoid
All I need is peace and quiet, maybe just a little time
Turn the channel, turn the channel piece of mind
[repeat chorus]
Afraid of success
Afraid to grow old
Afraid that my brain
Is covered with mold
Afraid that I might
Ce put on a shelf
But thats not the least, oh, oh!
Afraid of myself

Dont Be Afraid
Now if youre thinkin bout a love that left you
Thinkin you should hide away
Girl I think its wrong
You just try to be strong now babe
Listen to what Ive got to say
I know the feelin that you feel today
But dont be afraid of love
Tell you how I feel about you
Tell you what you want to hear
Tell you that its true
But its all up to you now babe
Dont let your love disappear
Cant believe that Ill be stayin here
But dont be afraid of love
Baby dont you know good love is hard to find
Dont you think I know whats goin through your mind

I Dont Want To Live Without You
I find myself in a strange situation
And I dont know how
What seemed to be an infatuation
Is so different now
I cant get by if were not together
Ooh cant you see
Girl, I want you now and forever
Close to me
Im longing for the time
Im longing for the day
Hoping that you will promise to be mine
And never go away
I dont want to live without you
I dont want to live without you
I could never live without you
Live without your love
I ask myself but theres no explanation
For the way I feel
I know Ive reached the right destination
And I know its real
Im longing for the time
Im longing for the day
When Ill be giving you this heart of mine
Believe me when I say
I dont want to live without you
I dont want to live without you
I could never live without you
Live without your love
No I dont want to live without you
I dont want to live without you
I could never live without you
Live without your love
Now I dont want to live without you
I dont want to live without you
I could never be without you
Be without your love
I dont want to live without you
Live without your love
Live without your love
You see Im lost without your love
Ooh...oh

Love You Cant Deny
Dont think I dont know
About the thoughts going through your mind
Dont think I dont care
About the way you toss and turn at night
I gotta be sure
That were both feeling the same thing
Like never before my love
Dont be afraid
Chorus
I got a love you cant deny
I got love you cant deny
I got a love you cant deny
I got love you cant deny
Everybody everywhere
Wants to feel some kind of love sometimes
But if you cant show you care
Then I guess Ill have to say good bye
I gotta be sure
That were both feeling the same thing
Like never before my love
Dont be afraid

Hideaway
One day the boy decided
To let them know the way he felt inside
He could not stand to hide it
His mother she broke down and cried
Oh my father
Why dont you talk to me now
Oh my mother
Do you still cry yourself to sleep
Are you still proud of your little boy
Dont be afraid
You dont have to hide away
The boy he was rejected
By the people that he cared for
Its not what they expected
But he could not keep it secret anymore
Far from home now
Waiting by the telephone
Theres a new world
You can make it on your own
Are you still proud of your little boy
Dont be afraid
You dont have to hide away
Dont be afraid
Love will mend your broken wing
Time will slip away
Learn to be brave

Dont Hide Your Love
You never give yourself completely
Its just that youve been hurt before
Youre so afraid to let me love you
You never leave an open door
Dont judge me by some other lover
Who broke your heart and walked away
Come lets be fair with one another
My world is yours I swear it
Say the word and we can share it
Chorus:
Dont hide your love
(dont hide your love)
Not if you care for me
(not if you care for me)
It isnt fair for me
To worry and wonder and wait
Dont hide your love
(dont hide your love)
Just love me here and now
(just love me here and now)
Well work it out somehow
Dont you keep us apart
Baby unlock your heart
Dont hide your love
Well I now the past has bought you sorrow
The clouds still hang around today
But dont let the rain, fall on tomorrow
Baby we can make it together
cause Im gonna love you forever

First Time
Written by dennis deyoung (for paul)
Lead vocals by dennis deyoung
The lights are low
And were alone
The fires glow
It keeps us warm
As I reach out and touch your face
The moon lights up our first embrace
But please dont hesitate
Hold my hand, dont be afraid
Of the feelings in your heart
Just close your eyes, no one will mind
If were to fall in love this first time
Dont be afraid of love
Dont be afraid of love
Dont be afraid of love
Its the first time
The first time for love
There could be so many worlds and mountains
We could climb
Together, the two of us tonight
The two of us, were quite a pair
These lonely nights we both can share
So dont be shy, cause its okay
I understand feeling that way
Hold my hand, dont be afraid
Of the feelings in your heart
Close your eyes, no one will mind
If were to fall in love this first time
Its the first time
The first time for love
There could be so many worlds and mountains
We could climb
Together, the two of us tonight

True Colors
Features babyface
You with the sad eyes
Dont be discouraged
Oh I realize
Its hard to take courage
In a world full of people
You can lose sight of it all
And the darkness, inside you
Can make you feel so small
But I see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And thats why I love you
So dont be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful,
Like a rainbow
Show me a smile then,
Dont be unhappy, cant remember
When I last saw you laughing
If this world makes you crazy
And youve taken all you can bear
You call me up
Because you know Ill be there
And Ill see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And thats why I love you
So dont be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful,
Like a rainbow
[intru part]
So sad eyes
Discouraged now
Realize
When this world makes you crazy
And youve taken all you can bear
You call me up
Because you know Ill be there
And Ill see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And thats why I love you
So dont be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors, true colors
Cos theres a shining through
I see your true colors
And thats why I love you
So dont be afraid to let them show
Your true colors, true colors
True colors are beautiful,
Beautiful, like a rainbow

In Love With Yourself
He came over to my house
Didnt even knock, he just walked inside
And when I didnt want to talk
He said, oh god, what a lot of bullshit.
Dont be so in love with yourself
Dont be so in love with yourself
Dont be so in love with yourself cause Im not
Dont you know Im not?
And I said, youve got a lot of nerve
Coming here after all of the times
That youve tried to pull the wool
Over my eyes and my ears and nose and mouth and...
Dont be so in love with yourself
Dont be so in love with yourself
Dont be so in love with yourself cause Im not
Dont you know Im not?
And he said, youve got a lot of nerve
Painting me like Im the villain.
What about all of those words, like hes just a friend?
Oh god, what a lot of bullshit...
Dont be so in love with yourself
Dont be so in love with yourself
Dont be so in love with yourself cause Im not
Dont you know Im not?
And I said, youve got a lot of nerve,
After all, it wasnt me who left.
And now youre sleeping with that girl
That you used to say that you have always hated.
Dont be so in love with yourself
Dont be so in love with yourself
Dont be so in love with yourself cause Im not
Dont you know Im not?
And we took off all of our clothes
Had a lot of sex and then fell asleep
And when I finally awoke
I held him close and I whispered in his ear and said,
dont be so in love with yourself
Dont be so in love with yourself
Dont be so in love with yourself cause Im not
Dont you know Im not?
And he said, i know, dont you think I know?

I Can No Longer Live For you
I spent my life loving you-
not someone like you, but YOU;
not a part of you, but YOU.
I spent my life knowing you,
hearing your heartbeat, painting your smile;
memorizing your thoughts, reading your eyes.
You thought that if you wear a mask,
I wouldn't know at all.
But then I do, coz all my life
I did nothing but living for you.
It's not your face that matters at all,
I can always see your soul.
You might not tell me if youre there
but I can feel your shadows.
It's not your voice that matters at all,
I can always hear your heart.
I can recognize your footsteps,
I can read what's on your mind.
You know that I would sense the truth,
you know that i would feel it.
You didnt tell me- were you afraid?
You twisted all you said.
I loved you and I love you-
I can always forgive you...
I can always understand you.
I waited to hear the truth from you
but why the silence?
Maybe because you dont love me
enough to tell me;
you dont love me enough
to win me back...
you dont love me enough
to care what I feel.
You just dont love me and Im sorry
I can no longer live for you.
I cant forever live for you.
Many times i hoped that i could touch forever
and beg him then to stay.
But then he didnt-
Yet, I wont live forever just to feel your love.
Im sorry, I cant do it-
I can no longer live for you...
but die for you, I will.

Dont Be Afraid
(graham russell, frank esler smith)
When winter calls and the wind wont wait
Look through the rain see the leaves start to break
Once so alone like a prayer on the sea
Nothing to hide, so much there to see
(chorus)
Dont be afraid
Dont be afraid
The thoughts you wear like a long lost friend
Are buried so deep that you cant see them end
You know spring will come just as quick as you need
And run straight to you when the dark nights are free

Green are your eyes
In the morning, when you rise
Dont you be afraid to lie
By me, my love
Your father will not know
Love can be broken
Though no words are spoken
Dont you be afraid to lie
By me, my love
Your father will not know
Love, dont cry
I'll never try
Dont you be afraid to lie

Your father will be told someday

Love Dont Love You
Chorus:
Love dont love you, love dont care
Love dont love you, love dont care
Verse 1:
You said youd always be there
You said youd always care
You always comfort me
You used to share things with me
You used to have time for me
Now it all seemed to end
I cant control my fears
Neither hold back tears
Knowing that somethings wrong, yeah
The more that I fight with you
The more I realize
It takes more than love
To satisfy my life
Chorus:
Love dont love you, love dont care (its got to be you, baby)
Love dont love you, love dont care (not love, baby)
Verse 2:
I thought I never would see
The day that you and me
Could not communicate
It came to my surprise
The only reason why
We misused the four-letter words
I should have known the signs
Instead I was blind
Ignoring what people would say
When will I ever learn
Cant blame it all on one word
Some words can seem more brutal than kind
Chorus:
Love dont love you, love dont care (love dont love you)
Love dont love you, love dont care (got to be you)
Love dont love you (love dont care about you, no way, no way, no way)
Love dont care no way
Bridge:
You see it takes a fool to learn
That love dont love nobody (got to be you)
But Ive learned
That love dont love me
And it sure cant love you (can only be you, oh)
So what are you gonna do
Dont just say you love me (baby)
You got to show me (show me that you care)
So where do we go from here
You tell me
You got to show me that you love me
Show me that you care
I need to know that you will always be there
Im gonna be there for you
Love dont love no one
And it sure dont care
Love dont love nobody
You should take my advice
Show me that you love me
Show me that you care, baby

Love dont love you, love dont care
Love dont love you, love dont care

Fool For Love
When I look into your eyes I see
Everything I was meant to be
If Im a fool in love
I dont care, I dont care
When were together
All I know
There is a place
I need to go
If Im a fool in love
I dont care, I dont care
If Im a fool in love
If Im a fool in love
If Im a fool in love
I dont care
I dont care
Visions of moonlight
In the park
We kissed and danced away
In the dark
If Im a fool in love
I dont care, I dont care
Was it wrong to show you
All I feel ?
No, I think that what
Does us in is the
Love were afraid to reveal...
Driving midnight highway one
Love is the ocean
Youre the one
