Of A Lifetime
The mist is slowly lifting
The sound of life misplaced your mind
Youre sitting, spellbound thru out time
I hope that you remember what you find
Singin more of a lifetime
You put it down-all that Im thinking
But take a long and distant search, when all is right
You take for granted
You cant look down but youre no worse.
Singin more of a lifetime
The countless visions that are drifting
The silver dreams you hate to lose.
Theres no harm. weve all been waiting.
Well keep your faith. do what you choose.
Singin more of a lifetime

High & Dry
With a lady-like devotion
She sails the bitter ocean
If it wasnt for lovesick sailors
Thered be nothin left but flotsam
Singin why me oh my
Is there a better man than i
I hope you find your way back home
Before youre lyin high and dry
I hope you find your way back home
Before you die
Her sails blow like bubbles
While ya sip yer daily doubles
If she wasnt so fond of the weather
She might give the deckhands trouble
Singin why me oh my
Is there a better man than i
I hope you find your way back home
Before youre lyin high and dry
I hope you find your way back home
Before you die
One day when I grew older
And I found I could not hold her
She took on a fine young skipper
Who soon run her up on a boulder
Singin why me oh my
Is there a better man than i
I hope you find your way back home
Before youre lyin high and dry
I hope you find your way back home
Before you die
Now the pleasures of the harbor
Dont include a lady barber
If it wasnt for long john silver
All of us pirates wouldve been martyrs
Singin why me oh my
Is there a better man than i
I hope you find your way back home
Before youre lyin high and dry
I hope you find your way back home
Before youre lyin high and dry
I hope you find your way back home
Before you die

Night On Broadway
Here we are
In a room full of strangers
Standing in the dark
Where your eyes couldn't see me
Well, I had to follow you
Though you did not want me to
But that won't stop my lovin' you
I can't stay away
Blamin' it all on the nights on Broadway
Singin' them love songs
Singin' them "straight to the heart" songs
Blamin' it all on the nights on Broadway
Singin' them sweet sounds
To that crazy, crazy town
Now, in my place
There are so many others
Standin' in the line
How long will they stand between us?
Well, I had to follow you
Though you did not want me to
But that won't stop my lovin' you
I can't stay away
Blamin' it all
On the nights on Broadway
Singin' them love songs
Singin' them "straight to the heart" songs
Blamin' it all
On the nights on Broadway
Singin' them sweet sounds
To that crazy, crazy town
I will wait ...
Even if it takes forever
I will wait ...
Even if it takes a lifetime
Somehow I feel inside
You never ever left my side
Make it like it was before
Even if it takes a lifetime, takes a lifetime
Blamin' it all
On the nights on Broadway
Singin' them love songs
Singin' them "straight to the heart" songs
Blamin' it all
On the nights on Broadway
Singin' them sweet sounds
To that crazy, crazy town
Blamin' it all
On the nights on Broadway
Singin' them sweet sounds
To that crazy, crazy town
I blame it all
On the nights on Broadway
Singin' them love songs
Singin' them "straight to the heart" songs

Youre A Big Girl Now
Our conversation was short and sweet
It nearly swept me off-a my feet.
And Im back in the rain, oh, oh,
And you are on dry land.
You made it there somehow
Youre a big girl now.
Bird on the horizon, sittin on a fence,
Hes singin his song for me at his own expense.
And Im just like that bird, oh, oh,
Singin just for you.
I hope that you can hear,
Hear me singin through these tears.
Time is a jet plane, it moves too fast
Oh, but what a shame if all weve shared cant last.
I can change, I swear, oh, oh,
See what you can do.
I can make it through,
You can make it too.
Love is so simple, to quote a phrase,
Youve known it all the time, Im learnin it these days.
Oh, I know where I can find you, oh, oh,
In somebodys room.
Its a price I have to pay
Youre a big girl all the way.
A change in the weather is known to be extreme
But whats the sense of changing horses in midstream?
Im going out of my mind, oh, oh,
With a pain that stops and starts
Like a corkscrew to my heart
Ever since weve been apart.

The Outlaw Torn
And now I wait my whole lifetime for you
I ride the dirt I ride the tide for you
I search the outside search inside for you
To take back what you left me
I know I'll always burn to be
The one seeks so I may find
And now I wait my whole lifetime
My whole lifetime
The Outlaw Torn
So on I wait my whole lifetime for you
So on I wait my whole lifetime for you
The more I search the more my need for you
The more I blast the more I bleed for you
You make me smash the clock and feel
I'd rather die behind the wheel
Time was never on my side
So on I wait my whole lifetime
My whole lifetime

Last One Singin The Blues
Ive always tried to level with you eye to eye
I finally found the devil in you by and by
But I dont really want to be the
Last one singing the blues
When it comes to fiction youre the best Ive met
But all those little lies
Are gonna get you yet
But I dont really want to be the
Last one singin the blues
(*) you say that you love me
But if you really love me
Then why do you treat me this way
Your game is that youre gone again
Its off and then its on again
Well someday I wont play
If all I do is catch you in the same old lies
Ill just have to look at you
With different eyes
cause I dont really want to be
The last one singin the blues
Repeat (*)
Well fate will soon determine youre the one to lose
Ill be the one whos handin you your walkin shoes
cause I dont really want to be
The last one singin the blues
Yeah, I dont really want to be
The last one singing the blues

In This Lifetime
All things one will receive,
In this lifetime.
Will come.
To leave.
In this lifetime.
That which is believed,
In this lifetime.
Will change as one grows.
To learn, accept and come to know.
In this lifetime.
With trust there is happiness.
If kept.
Much is tested to address...
Each season manifested.
Reasons we all share,
To compare if something in life is missed.
Makes us seek pieces to complete...
With a snug fit.
In this lifetime.
And in this lifetime,
All that is received...
Leaves.
With air that is free to breathe.
That seems not to be an option,
In this lifetime of teased choices made to choose.

Once In A Lifetime (feat. Human Nature)
ONCE IN A LIFETIME
Kenny Loggins and Human Nature
Runaway Bride
Something about you
Oh, could it be I finally found
My destiny
Now here you are
Within my reach
How did I miss you? (how did I miss you)
When you were out there all the time
It took this moment
To make me realize...
Once in a Lifetime
You find your reason for living
You find the one that makes your every dream
Come true
(Find the one that makes your dreams...)
Oh I could search the world forever
But no one else could do
Cause once in a lifetime
You find someone like you
Ahh..
Once in a lifetime, ohh
I've waited for so long (so long)
Makin this can't nothin be but a lie
Cause all about
Standing by wind, oohh
Alone in the crowd, oh oh oh
I went through the motion (went through the motion)
Then out of heaven you arrived
Whatever was wrong
Suddenly is right
Cause once in a lifetime
You find the reason for living
You find the one who makes your every dream
Come true
(Find the one who makes your dream...)
No, I could search the world forever
And no one else would do
Cause once in a lifetime
You find someone like you
(Find someone like you...)
Hearts that wait for love can grow so weary
(Don't you know... a heart can grow?)
But it doesn't matter anymore
When you find the one you've waited for...
You find your reason for living
You find the one that makes your every dream come ... oh you make it come true
Oh you could search the world forever
But no one else would do
Cause once in a lifetime
You find someone like you.....
Cause once in a lifetime
You find someone.....
Someone like you......
(Ahhh...)
Whoaaa......................

L.u.v.
Guilty 'till proven innocent.
I'm thinking about the government
Wondering where the money went.
Into outer space, I guess.
Lying cs's everywhere.
Pretty boys in their underwear.
Statue of Liberty.
Who really cares
About freedom.
Singin' about l-u-v baby, luv
Singin' about l-u-v baby, luv
Throw up, throw down.
Get yourself a better town.
All these towns look the same
Self pity, number one recreation.
We're dying in the USA.
Preacher man, he keeps
Preachin'
While he covets your wife.
I ain't sayin' what's good
I ain't sayin' what's right.
Singin' about l-u-v baby, luv
Singin' about l-u-v baby, luv
Wait a minute, let me check my tan.
Am I the same color as Superman?
Helter skelter in a foreign land.
Monkeys versus dogs,
Lying under a big palm tree
With cream and bananas all over me.
That's the way it's supposed to be
Here in the Garden of Eden.
Singin' about l-u-v baby, luv
Singin' about l-u-v baby, luv
Singin' about l-u-v baby, luv

One Love In My Lifetime
(t. mcfaddin/l. brown/l. perry)
Ooh,yeah
From rags to riches, here I stand
Shaped and molded by your loving hand
With faith and trust unshaken
You led me all the way
Through years of joy and tears
Im standing here to say
Youre that one love in my lifetime
And if I search this whole wide world
I know Ill never find a love thats stronger
Than an oak tree
That will be standing in the sun
When my life is done, yeah
A carefree girl
I couldnt see
All the future plans darlin
You made for me
You placed the whole world
At my feet
And lit a flame of passion
That burns eternally
Love may come
And love may go
But youre the man that made me
And no one else can change me
Youre my adam, and Im your eve
And if I live a hundred years
I know therell only be
One love in my lifetime
Only one love
Burning in this heart of mine
Youre the one love
In my lifetime
And if I live a hundred years
I know Ill never find
A love thats stronger
Than an oak tree
That will be standing in the sun
When my life is done
One love in my lifetime
Only one love
Burning in this heart of mine
One love
Burning in this heart of mine
One love

Tomorrow Is Now
Tomorrow is... tomorrow is now
You think the past is behind you
But baby whats that on your back
It looks to me like youre draggin it around
Like a heavy pack
Now we dont live in the present
Were to busy hangin on
To whats been and gone so it comes again
Singin the same old song
Singin na na-na na na
Let it go oh oh
Tomorrow is... tomorrow is now
Tomorrow is... tomorrow is now
What are you going to ask for
What are you going to create
Its in you hands to build your own world
Forget about fate
And I dont need to remind you
Life is short and life is sweet
And before you even know it
Past and future gonna meet
Oh, every day and every way
Good to go oh oh
Tomorrow is... tomorrow is now
Tomorrow is... tomorrow is now
Tomorrow is... tomorrow is now
Tomorrow is... tomorrow is now
Not much to say
Its all been said, anyway
Not much to think about
Just let go of yesterday
Singin na na-na na na

Let it go oh oh

And The Children Laughing
Ah......
Well, I been working up a fever trying to
Straighten up the mess in my mind about this place
I cant contain myself anymore
Cant you see its written all over my face
Why dont you get on your feet
Its about time you got to think
What ever happened to peace
Well open your eyes and youll see children laughing,
Voices singin ,hearts a-beatin ah.....
Your always talkin right and talkin about
The world and its corruption and moral decay
But what you gonna do about it , nothing ,
cause youre more like children then children while they play
Why youre so clean through and through you wont shake hands
With a negro whos maybe cleaner then you
Well listen around and youll hear children laughin ,
Voices singin , hearts a-beatin like they always do
So whats wrong with you , ah...
Youre so blown up with anger about the world
You write the songs about
Yet you dont even know your neighbors name
Now you want to go the the moon and live there
When you know itll only end up the same
How can he give you any gratitude,
With your endless sickenin attitude
You strive to get ahead
But you leave each other dead
Cant you see , children laughin ,
Voices singin , hearts beatin like they always do
So whats wrong with you , ah...
Children laughin , voices singin hearts beatin
Children laughin , voices singin , (fade)

I used to be a famous artist
Proud as I could be
Struggling to express myself
For the whole world to see

Searching for the lost elation
Little did I know the joy I was to find
In knowing I am only me
Im singin in my heart
Im singin in my heart
Im singin love to sing
I love to sing it from my heart
Oh the creation yeah
Of a good time doin my part
With an open-hearted laugh of realization in my mind
And now Im but a child who art
Erect in humility
Serving out a love for everyone I meet
In truth who are really me
Im singin in my heart

Dear Lifetime
Dear lifetime
Dear lifetime
Listen to me
Are you standing, waiting for me?
Are you running, will you follow me?
Dear lifetime
Answer me
What will remain of us?
Remain of us
Chorus:
I wont turn around, I will wait
I can run away, I will stay
Was I born with loneliness to die?
Was I born with loneliness to die?
Youve died before
And you nestled in against
Against my chest
I feel ashamed, you sound so cold
I feel ashamed, your blood is old
Chorus
I laid down my soul so you could see
I had no identity
I drowned in my homemade loneliness
And died of the thirst of my selfishness

Dear lifetime, dear lifetime, dear lifetime

You sound so cold, I feel ashamed
Your blood is old

Its time we let the spirit come in
Let it come on in
Im singin to the world
Everybodys caught in the spin
Look at where weve been
Weve been runnin around
Year after year blinded with pride
Blinded with fear
But its daybreak if you wanna believe
It can be daybreak aint no time to grieve
Said its daybreak if youll only believe
And let it shine, shine, shine
All around the world
Singin to the world
Whats the point in puttin it down?
Theres so much love to share
Im singin to the world
Dont you see it all comes around
The feelings everywhere
Weve been closin our eyes
Day after day covered in clouds
Losin our way
Hey, but its daybreak if you wanna believe
It can be daybreak aint no time to grieve

The Year 2000 Minus 25
Welcome to the year 2000, minus 25
Oh say, can you smell er for the smoke?
Gods still up there laughin
So hes gotta be alive
Who says he cant take a dirty joke?
Power is and power does and power slips away
Its so easy to abuse.
Whoda thought them arabs woulda bought the usa
Just to give it to the jews?
Chorus:
Singin crime still dont pay
Just like it used to
(just like it used to)
And time slips away til you die
(slips away til you die)
You know but I dont give a damn
When I choose to
(when I choose to)
And you know but it dont hurt so bad
When youre high
(when youre high)
Oh say does the future of the homesick and the brave
Even matter anymore
There aint no more reason for them boys to run away now
Than there was the fight before
And could you tell me why the hell we tried to win back in the war
What we wasted in the last?
Might just aint as righteous as it used to be before
When your armys out of gas
Chorus:
Singin crime still dont pay
Just like it used to
(just like it used to)
And time slips away til you die
(slips away til you die)
You know but I dont give a damn
When I choose to
(when I choose to)
And you know but it dont hurt so bad
When youre high
(when youre high)
