Warmer Place To Sleep
Well I been up to the mountain
Seen the ashes down below
I had breakfast with the wiseman
He told me what he thought I should know
And Ive been to bed with jezabel
And I found the well as deep
And Id trade in my ambitions
For a warmer place to sleep
Well Ive seen the heart of darkness
Read the writing on the wall
And the voice out in the desert
Was the voice out in the hall
And once he called me abel
And once he called me cain
And for forty days and for forty nights
I slept out in the rain
Chorus:
Girl can you share your warm bed tonight
I need to find a safe retreat
Someplace where they cant see my eyes
I need to find a warmer place to sleep
Well I rested in the devils arms
Ive chased the hounds of hell
I played truth or dare with the angels
And as I fall as I can tell
That a heart of gold aint no better
Than a heart torn from the street
And Id trade in my heart of stone
For a warmer place to sleep
Chorus:
Girl can you share your warm bed tonight
I need to find a safe retreat
Someplace where they cant see my eyes
I need to find a warmer place to sleep

China Girl
VERSE 1
How do you find a place to sleep when there's nowhere to go?
Life must be a living hell to you - only time will show
There with no clothes or food to eat
So filled with shame
Each tear that sits upon your face
I know them by name
BRIDGE
When will you stop to hear the voice inside
That you try to hide
No one can save you but you
CHORUS
China girl
Hope your find your way home
Coz my heart is bleeding
Waiting for your safe return
China girl
Everybody loves you
All those hearts are breaking
It's not the same since you've been gone
VERSE 2
Each night you feel the need to hold someone you don't know
To replace the emptiness inside - start heading home
Your place was never on the streets
You ignored your call
Did you know that pride was in the way
Before you'd fall
BRIDGE
When will you stop to hear the voice inside
That you try to hide
No one can save you but you
CHORUS
China girl
Hope your find your way home
Coz my heart is bleeding
Waiting for your safe return
China girl
Everybody loves you
All those hearts are breaking
It's not the same since you've been gone
MIDDLE 8
I'm asking you if I could find
Just where you had to sleep tonight
I wonder did you eat today
Did you get on your knees and pray?
To free you from this misery
That's not how life's supposed to be
No need for you to carry shame
There's no person here to blame
CHORUS X2
China girl
Hope your find your way home
Coz my heart is bleeding
Waiting for your safe return
China girl
Everybody loves you
All those hearts are breaking
It's not the same since you've been gone

Sleep Tight
Sleep Tight
Now hush
My little one
Don't be afraid
Your daddy's right here
It's just
A little dream
And now it's gone
There's nothing to fear
So close your eyes
I'll sing a sweet lullaby
Lay your head close to my heart
(chorus)
And sleep tight
The angels hover over you
They spread their wings
To keep you safe and warm
The starlight
In the heavens high above you
Will light a path
To find your way back home
Sleep tight
And now
My sleepy head
Your carriage waits
To take you off to bed
Let go
Your tiny hands
And drift away
To a bright enchanted land
I promise you
Your sweetest dreams will come true
Now leave this weary world behind
(chorus)
So close your eyes
And wish upon the brightest star
'cause when you dream
It doesn't matter where you are
Near to me or very far
I'll always be with you
(whispered)
sleep tight
sleep tight
sleep tight
(chorus
Yeah I'll keep you safe
Safe and warm

The Warmer Side Of Cool
(jack hues)
Well Im sitting on a hillside
On the warmer side of cool
With the future laid before me
Like a green and misty jewel
And to climb above the tree line
Is only for the fools
So they say
So they say
Chorus:
On the warmer side of cool
What you feel in your heart is all
On the warmer side of cool
Being cool its so easy to be cold
Well Im sitting by the seaside
On the warmer side of cool
With the ocean spread before me
Like a blue and misty jewel
And if I jump into the water
Would an angel break my fall
So they say
So they say
On the warmer side of cool
What you feel in your heart is all
Im sorry if I offend you
If Im a little bit intense
But I never did intend us
To be sitting on the fence
And even though Im guilty
Of making total sense
Im happy when its all
On the warmer side of cool
Repeat chorus
It aint cool to be cold

Mr. Rainmaker
It could have rained for
Forty weeks dear
And I'd never know the difference
When your life is one
Long down pour
You're not sure you'll go the distance
You came along
With a patch of blue sky
Inside your arms
I found a place that's warm and dry
Chorus
Mister Rainmaker
Don't waste your time
I found a girl
Who is permanent sunshine
She is the little queen
Of all of my dreams carry on
And find somene else to rain on
Find someone else to rain on
Chorus
Love never rained down on me dear
Only heartache and problems
Now thorugh your arms I can see clear
It's only been raining water
You came along
With a patch of blue sky
Inside your arms
I found a place that's warm and dry

You know its been a long long road

Still you wonder where youre goin
And why I had to leave

Find your way back to her heart
To her heart, cmon
I know its too late now
But I wish I could go back in time
And start all over somehow
And get it right from the start
Find your way back
Find your way back to her heart

Find your way back (find your way back) find your way back
Find your way back (find your way back) find your way back
Find your way back (find your way back) find your way back
Find your way back (find your way back) find your way back...

Little Girl Of Rags
Little girl all dressed in rags,
I see your face, it's oh so sad.
Little girl with tears streaming down,
You can't obscure that stubborn frown.
Little girl who's all alone,
No place to sleep and call your home.
Little girl, a boy has come,
You're sure that he must be the one.
Little girl, a place to stay,
He gives a bed where you can lay.
Little girl whose eyes shine bright,
Tears of joy flow out tonight.
Little girl, the past is gone,
Now you hear a wedding song.
Little girl, on goes the ring,
The voice of your heart begins to sing.
Little girl you now have his heart,
And not even rags could tear you apart.♥

We Will Meet Again
Was it the words she said or was it all in the way in which the lady said them?
Her eyes that spoke to me were sending my heart a thought so deep I cant forget them
I guess it wasnt the right time or the place
For love right then
But we met destiny, and it sealed our fate
Chorus:
Well me again (we will meet again)
I know we will (we will meet again)
On my heart its written (we will meet again)
Somewhere, someplace, somehow Ill find her then as I did now... just for a moment
And I will hear the wind that told me
I will return again my love have patience
Lifes a circle, it all comes back around, so until then...
Ill be waiting for you knowing somehow?
Repeat chorus
And if she were standing in a crowd
Shed be the one that I would find among the faces
And if the music was too loud
Itd be her voice that I would hear
Above it all (we will meet again)
I know we will (we will meet again)
I know we will (we will meet again)
And if she were standing in a crowd
Shed be the one that I would find among the faces
And if the music was too loud
Itd be her voice that I would hear
Above it all (we will meet again)
I know we will (we will meet again)
On my heart its written (we will meet again)
From this day till... (we will meet again)
Well me again (we will meet again)
Well me again (we will meet again)

Higher Ground
Walk me over this situation
Let the suns light warm my face
Once again the times are changing
Once again Ive lost my way
While the words of acient poets
Fall like dust upon my shoes
Greed has grabbed me of my vision
Turned my heart from higher truths
So take my hand and lift me higher
Be my love and my desire
Hold me safe, in honor bound
Take my heart to higher ground
I have walked too long in darkness
I have walked too long alone
Blindy clutching fist of diamonds
That I found were only stones
I would trade the wealth of ages
For a warmer hand to hold
Though the path of life is narrow
But it leads the streets of gold
So take my hand and lift me higher
Be my love and my desire
Hold me safe, in honor bound
Take my heart to higher ground
In this world we move through shadows
Never sure of what we see
While the truth abides between us
Come and share the truth with me
So take my hand and lift me higher
Be my love and my desire
Hold me safe in honor bound
Take my heart to higher ground
Ooh, ooh

Tonight The Heartaches On Me
You couldve heard a pin drop
When they walked through the door
Had to turn my eyes away
My heart fell to the floor
Someone whispered, wheres her halo?
Cause she had an angels face
He stood there smiling, holding on
To the one who took my place
So...
Chorus:
Tonight the heartaches on me, on me
Lets drink a toast to the fool who couldnt see
Bartender pour the wine, cause the hurtins all mine
Tonight the heartaches on me
I wonder if he told her
Shes the best hes ever known
The way he told me evry night
When we were all alone
Shell find out when the new wears off
Hell find somebody new
Shell learn what heartaches all about
And what Im going through
But...

Yes tonight, the heartaches on me
Oh lovers like you and me will never say die

Where do you go, girl?
Where do you go, girl,
when you fall asleep?
for even when we've spent a passion's time,
you, all woman and all animal,
and then drift gently into sleep
and I to watch you drift -
you're straight away a girl again.
Do you dream a girlhood's dearest dreams?
or roam a woman's world?
What girlhood's safe, safe place
do you retreat to
in your private sleep?
Was it when the only man to love
was your beloved father,
still recovering from a wartime's hangover
with alcohol - and your so fierce, despairing help?
Where do you go in sleep?
while I now watch this unknown girl;
an upper lip that asks so innocently
to be kissed?
And lower lip that just so innocently
enjoys?
Where do you go, girl,
so far, so many years away from me?
Where do you go, girl?

Help Me Find A Way To Your Heart
Another day and Im spending
Time alone
I called you place and there was
No one home
Ive been laying low but im
Thinking of you
Out there by yourself trying to find
Something new
Girl I thought what we had was so
Good that Id never hear you say no
And for all that is worth, I cant
Think about ever letting go
But Im lost for the words that i
Need to get over the way I feel
I cant do it by myself
Girl I really need you her
Help me find a way to our heart
Help me find my way, I cant see
In the dark
Tell me if Ive drifted too far
Am I warm? am I cold?
Tell me now, let me know
Baby where we are
Ive asked myself a thousand times
Or more
Girl, if we dont communicate then
What is loving for?
cos I thought what we had was
So good that Id never hear you
Say why
I cant do it by myself
Girl weve really got to try
Help me find a way to our heart
Help me find my way, I cant see
In the dark
Tell me if Ive drifted too far
Am I warm? am I cold?
Tell me now, let me know
Baby where we are
Too much time too much confusion
Love wont let me be
Take a little time and show you care
For me
Baby tell me what to say
cos I cant live my life this way
Show me where your feelings start
Show me sweet baby the way
To your heart

I've been waiting for forever to find you, to find you
I'm not alone now, alone now
Cuz you've taken in my heart from the cold
All I know is every time I look into your eyes I'm home, I know
You're where I belong

And I know it's the truth
You're part of my heart
There's nothing I can do

In Another World
This is the first time on my own
This is the first time I've ever been alone like this
The silence covers wall to wall
I never knew how suddenly the night can fall
Far away
I can here the city screams
Drift away
I could be beside you in my dreams
[Chorus:]
In another world
I could walk away
Pretend there was nothing
I wouldn't need you anyway
In another world
But not in this world
I have no stronghold to defend
But still my heart is outside, beating at the door again
No promises to make or keep
And though I'm free to go
I end up chasing sleep again
Drift away
Wonder if you think of me
Yesterday, is the place I'm going endlessly
[Chorus]
And though I realize the truth
Is not idealized in you
Why should I be surprised to find
That you are always on my mind
[Chorus 2x]
This is the first time on my own
This is the first time I've ever been alone like this
The silence covers wall to wall
I never knew how suddenly the night can fall
Far away
I can here the city screams
Drift away
I could be beside you in my dreams
[Chorus]
In another world
But not in this world
I have no strong hold to defend
But still my heart is outside, beating at the door again
No promise to make or keep
One thought I'm free to go
I end up chasing sleep again
Drift away
Wonder if you think of me
Yesterday, is the place I'm going endlessly
[Chorus]
And though I realize the truth
Is not that I desire in you
Why should I be surprised to find
That you are always on my mind

This is the first time on my own-acap

Spanish Eyes
(andrew fromm/sandy linzer)
Here we are in the arms of one another
And we still go on searching for each other
Knowing that hate is wrong and love is
Right for us tonight
When I look into your spanish eyes
I know the reason why I am alive
And the world is so beautiful tonight
Chorus
Its a place Ive never been
And it comes from deep within
And its telling me that Im about to win first prize
Knowing all I have to do
Is reach out my hand to you
Anytime I want to look into your spanish eyes
Let it be if were nothing more than dreamers
Who believe that we see no wall between us
How can they be in my heart and in my mind,
When all I could find
When I look into your spanish eyes
I know the reason why I am alive
And the world is so beautiful tonight

Thought I couldnt reach that far
I cant believe how close that we are
When I look into your spanish eyes
And the world is so beautiful tonight

I Hear Your Voice
So many nights thought that I was doing fine
Thought that time had chased your picture from my mind
So many times thought my heart was finally strong
Now I find this heart of mine was so wrong
I thought Id finally learned to get on with my life
I hear your voice-(call)
Your voice (call)
Your voice (call)
The way it used to do
I feel my heart (fall)
I try to keep you off my mind
But every time I do, I hear your voice
So many days I thought that I could love again
But any fool in love would know thats all pretend
You always seem to find your way
Back in my dreams and I cant break free
Chorus
You know I tried so many times just to forget you
Ive tried to walk away from you
Oh girl, its just no use
I hear your voice (call)
Your voice (call)
Your voice (call)
Calling me.. calling me the way...
I feel my heart (fall)
I try to keep you off my mind
But every time I do,

I hear your voice

Danny Boy (live)
Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen, and down the mountain side
The summer's gone, and all the roses are dying
It's you, It's you must go and I must bide
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow
For I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so
But when ye come and all the flowers are a dying
And if I am dead, dead I well may be
Just come and find, find the place
Find the place where I lay lying
And kneel and say an "Ave" there for me
And I will hear tho soft you tread above me
And my grave, my grave warmer and sweeter be
For you're gonna kneel and you're gonna tell
God you're gonna tell me how you loved me
And I will sleep in peace until you come to me
