Safer Hands
Little hand held high, I reached for you, innocent and small
Never felt so safe, no wider smile, I had it all
No worries at all, little girl just three, she couldnt see
What there would be, clearer than you think, my memory
He treasured me, protected me
Wherever you have gone to, my mind is settled, youre in safer hands
Although youve gone for good now, my mind is settled, youre in safer hands
The day you left, no warning came, I was sleeping
Maybe it was your undying love, you didnt wake me, didnt take me
Now the years have flown and I have grown, there is a yearning
Give me just one day, to while away, to that Im drinking: wishful thinking
Wherever you have gone to, my mind is settled, youre in safer hands
Although youve gone for good now, my mind is settled, youre in safer hands
Even though its years, so long ago, there is a presence here
If there was some doubt, its all over now
Of that Im certain, theres no question
Wherever you have gone to, my mind is settled, youre in safer hands
Although youve gone for good now, my mind is settled, youre in safer hands

Now Youre Gone
(coverdale/vandenberg)
Now youre gone
I can feel my heart is breaking,
An I cant go on
When I think of the love that youve taken
In the night I pray for your embrace,
Every time I close my eyes
I cant escape your face
Youre out of sight,
But, always on my mind,
I never realised
My love could be so blind
Youre all I want,
Cant you feel the love
In this heart of mine
Youre all I need,
So maybe we could turn back
The hands of time,
Maybe we could give it another try
One more time
But, now youre gone
Theres an emptiness closing around me,
An I cant go on
When all I have left is the memory
In the night I call out your name,
I wake up in a cold sweat
An Im all alone again
I need your love
Much more than I can say,
I realise without you
I cant face another day
Youre all I want,
Cant you feel the love
In this heart of mine
Youre all that I need,
Since I lost you, girl,
Ive been losing my mind
Youre all that I want,
So maybe we could turn back
The hands of time,
Maybe we could give it
Another try
One more time,
Baby, just one more time
Now youre gone
I can feel my heart is breaking,
An I cant go on
When all of my love has been taken
Youre all I want,
Cant you feel the love
In this heart of mine
Youre all that I need,
Since I lost you, girl,
Ive been losing my mind
Youre all I want,
Cant you feel the love
In this heart of mine
Youre all that I need,
Since I lost you, girl,
Ive been losing my mind...

Rock n Roll Suicide
Time takes a cigarette, puts it in your mouth
You pull on your finger, then another finger, then your cigarette
The wall-to-wall is calling, it lingers, then you forget
Ohhh how how how, youre a rock n roll suicide
Youre too old to lose it, too young to choose it
And the clocks waits so patiently on your song
You walk past a cafe but you dont eat when youve lived too long
Oh, no, no, no, youre a rock n roll suicide
Chev brakes are snarling as you stumble across the road
But the day breaks instead so you hurry home
Dont let the sun blast your shadow
Dont let the milk float ride your mind
Youre so natural - religiously unkind
Oh no love! youre not alone
Youre watching yourself but youre too unfair
You got your head all tangled up but if I could only
Make you care
Oh no love! youre not alone
No matter what or who youve been
No matter when or where youve seen
All the knives seem to lacerate your brain
Ive had my share, Ill help you with the pain
Youre not alone
Just turn on with me and youre not alone
Lets turn on with me and youre not alone (wonderful)
Lets turn on and be not alone (wonderful)
Gimme your hands cause youre wonderful (wonderful)
Gimme your hands cause youre wonderful (wonderful)
Oh gimme your hands.

Sixteen
Youve been a juvenile
With a dolphin smile
With no elbow room
Youve had in your little backyard
Portected by big walls
You didnt dare look over
cause youve been too small
Now youre finally sixteen
And youre feelin old
But they wont believe
That you got a soul
cause youre only sixteen
And youre feeling real
But you cant seem to cup a feel
Why do they have to force us
Through this metamorphose
Little butterfly
No matter how you try
Youll be segregated
Youre gonna be closed off
Youre callow and youre green
cause youre caught between
Youre only sixteen
Try to cross the line
But your little wings are interwined
Youre only sixteen
And youre such a tease
And theres nothing you can do
That can really please
These children
Theyre not really bad most of them
Theyre just products
Of rotten neighborhoods
And bad family situations
You know you cant forsake it
So sit back and take it
You see youre just not ripe
So dont try and fight that
Youre only sixteen
You wanna catch a peek
But they look at you
Like youre such a freak
Well youre only sixteen
With a lot to say
But they wont give you
The time of day
Youre only sixteen!
Youre only sixteen!!
Youre just sixteen!!!
You poor little thing

Beautiful Surprise
Its like yesterday
I didnt even know your name
Now today
Youre always on my mind
I never could have predicted that I feel this way
Youre beautiful surprise
Intoxicated every time I hear your voice
Youve got me on a natural high
Its almost like I didnt even have a choice
Youre beautiful surprise
Whatever it is you came to teach me
I am here to learn it cause
I believe that were written in the stars
I dont know the future hopes
But Im living in the moment
And Im thankful for the man that you are, you are, you are
You are everything I ask for in my prayers
So I know my angels brought you to my life
Your energy is healing to my soul
Youre beautiful surprise
Youre inspiration to my life
Youre the reason why I smile
Youre beautiful surprise

Someday
(branson/mindel)
Theres only one way to go when youre up too high
Youve gotta come down; youve gotta come down
And theres only one way of saying the word goodbye
Youve gotta come down; youve gotta come down
Youve gotta be sure youre not throwing your life away
You know I can say youll regret it someday
But someday, many tears and far away
Theres gonna be something thats gonna make you want to stay
And if someday you should wake and want me near
Ill still be here
Theres only one thing to do when you reach the end
Youve gotta let go; youve gotta let go
And theres only one scene when its all pretend
Youve gotta let go; youve gotta let go
Youve gotta be sure youre not throwing your life away
You know I can say youll regret it someday
And you know that someday, when theres no one sleeping on your mind
Youre gonna wake up and see tomorrow isnt hard to find
And if years dont heal the memories you feel
Ill still be here
Someday
And if someday you should wake and want me near
Ill still be here
Someday

Nobody Knows You When Youre Down & Out
(jimmie cox)
Once I lived the life
Of a millionaire
Spending my money
Oh I didnt care
Taking my friends out
For a mighty good time
Oh wed drink that good gin
Champagne and wine
But oh just as soon
As my money got low
I couldnt find nobody
And I had no place to go
And if I ever get my hands
On a dollar again
Im gonna hold on
Till the eagle wins
Cause I found out
Nobody wants you
When youre down and out
Nobody wants you
When youre down and out
Lord have mercy
Yeah, yeah, now listen
Now in your pocket
Theres not one penny
And all of them good friends
You found out you havent got any
Nobody come around
But the landlord and the taxman
Your ex-wife who says
She wants more alimony
Then theres a knock on the door
And its a woman you dont know
Says shes having your baby
Shell walk on in
But oh just as soon
As the money roll in
Here they all come sayings
That theyre youre long lost friends
But if I ever get my hands
On a dollar again
I believe, I believe Ill hold on
Till the eagle wins
Cause I found out
Nobody wants you
When youre down and out
Nobody wants you
When youre down and out
Nobody wants you
When youre down and out
Nobody wants you
When youre down and out
Nobody wants you
When youre down and out
Nobody wants you
When youre down and out
Nobody wants you
When youre down and out
Nobody, nobody, nobody

State Of Mind
I was goin round the world
I was lookin for somewhere
I was searchin for someone
Who was gonna take me there
Didnt want to do it cause I knew what Id find
Yourre really only livin in a state of mind, yeah
I was thinkin of the past
I was tryin to rack my brain
I was looking at the future, looking at the future
I was tryin to play the game
Didnt want to do it cause I knew what Id find
Youre really only livin in a state of mind, yeah
Sometimes you get lost
Sometimes you get found
In a state of mind
Sometimes youre too high
Sometimes youre too down
Its just a state of mind
Didnt want to do it cause I knew what Id find
Youre really only livin in a state of mind, yeah
Sometimes you get lost
Sometimes you get found
In a state of mind
Sometimes youre too high
Sometimes youre too down
Its just a state of mind
You think you know it all
Then you think that you know nothing
Cant dance, cant crawl, crawl
Maybe you better forget it
Didnt want to do it cause I knew what Id find
Youre really only livin in a state of mind, yeah
Didnt want to it cause I knew what Id find
Youre really only livin in a state of mind, yeah

An Inspiration
However the battle is ended,
Though proudly the victor comes
With fluttering flags and prancing nags
And echoing roll of drums.
Still truth proclaims this motto,
In letters of living light, -
No Question is ever settled,
Until it is settled right.
Though the heel of the strong oppressor
May grind the weak to dust,
And the voices of fame with one acclaim
May call him great and just,
Let those who applaud take warning,
And keep this motto in sight, -
No question is ever settled
Until it is settled right.
Let those who have failed take courage;
Tho' the enemy seems to have won,
Tho' his ranks are strong, if he be in the wrong
The battle is not yet done;
For, as sure as the morning follows
The darkest hour of the night,
No question is ever settled
Until it is settled right.
O man bowed down with labor!
O woman, young, yet old!
O heart oppressed in the toiler's breast
And crushed by the power of gold!
Keep on with your weary battle
Against triumphant might;
No question is ever settled
Until it is settled right.

Settle The Question Right
However the battle is ended,
Though proudly the victor comes,
With flaunting flags and neighing nags
And echoing roll of drums;
Still truth proclaims this motto
In letters of living light,
No question is ever settled
Until it is settled right.
Though the heel of the strong oppressor
May grind the weak in the dust,
And the voices of fame with one acclaim
May call him great and just;
Let those who applaud take warning
And keep this motto in sight,
No question is ever settled
Until it is settled right.
Let those who have failed take courage,
Though the enemy seem to have won;
If he be in the wrong, though his ranks are strong,
The battle is not yet done.
For sure as the morning follows
The darkest hour of night,
No question is ever settled
Until it is settled right.
O men, bowed down with labour,
O women, young yet old,
O heart, oppressed in the toiler’s breast
And crushed by the power of gold,
Keep on with your weary battle
Against triumphant might;
No question is ever settled
Until it is settled right.

Since Youve Been Gone
J. spinks
Since youve been gone
Theres something I wanna say
Since youve been gone
Theres no one taking your place
Since youve been gone
Ive just been foolin around
Since youve been gone
This worlds been turned upside down
Didnt think Id find a girl that I could not forget
Anything we started not so long ago - aint over yet
Since youve been gone
Staring at your photograph
And I know it wont be long
An I know youre coming back
You turned me on
Since the first time I set eyes on you
You turned me on
Ooh the things you want me to do
Dont get me wrong
cos youre not the only girl Ive ever had
But since youve been gone
Girl you know the thought of yous driving me mad
All I do is think of you I lie awake - lie awake
And no matter how I try this loneliness - you know I cant take
Since youve been gone
Staring at your photograph
And I know it wont be long
An I know youre coming back
Since youve been gone
Theres something I wanna say
Since youve been gone
Theres no one to stand in my way
Since youve been gone
So scared of losing this time
Since youve been gone
Girl you know that I cant get you out of my mind
Since youve been gone
Staring at your photograph
And I know that I was wrong
An I know youre coming back
Since youve been gone
Tried my best to read between the lines
If some things are hard to say
You better tell me one more time
Since youve been gone
Since youve been gone

Think For Yourself
Ive got a word or two
To say about the things that you do
Youre telling all those lies
About the good things that
We can have if we close our eyes
Do what you want to do
And go where youre going to
Think for yourself
cause I wont be there with you
I left you far behind
The ruins of the life that you have in mind
And though you still cant see
I know your minds made up
Youre gonna cause more misery
Do what you want to do
And go where youre going to
Think for yourself
cause I wont be there with you
Although your minds opaque
Try thinking more if just for your own sake
The future still looks good
And youve got time to rectify
All the things that you should
Do what you want to do
And go where youre going to
Think for yourself
cause I wont be there with you
Do what you want to do
And go where youre going to
Think for yourself
cause I wont be there with you
Think for yourself
cause I wont be there with you

Are you looking for some place you can be free
Are you looking, looking for someone you want to be
You ran away from home girl - searching for your shangri-la
Wherever you may roam girl in my mind you wont be far
Paradise is what youre looking for

Youre a prisoner inside a gilded cage
You keep praying sayin there must be a better way
Youve got the best intentions of this I dont have any doubts

Complicated
Youre never going to see what you like
Youre never going to wake up and change your mind
Youre never going to keep what you hold
You wont accomplish anything on your own
You cant have what you wanted
So make up your mind and come to your senses
Youll never win if you dont bend
Its not so complicated
If you decide to change your mind
Youll find your inundated
Youre never going to do what you say
Youll always try to make up another way
Youre never going to act on your own
Youre never going to see that youre all alone
And so youre here and you dont know
If you can choose the way to go
Its not about the way it is
So dont become a realist
Youve got time to make a choice
Dont think aloud but have a voice
And when you think the time is right
Dont ever be afraid to fight

Lying in my bed again
And I cry cos youre not here
Crying in my head again
And I know that its not clear
Put your hands, put your hands
Inside my face and see that its just you
But its bad and its mad
And its making me sad
Because I cant be with you
Baby I cant be with you
Thinking back on how things were
And how we loved so well
I wanted to be the mother
Of your child
And now its just farewell
Put your hands in my hand
Well find another end
And come with me,
And my head, and my head
On anyones shoulder
Cause I cant be with you
Baby I cant be with you
Cause youre not here, youre not here
Baby I cant be with you
Cause youre not here, youre not here
And baby Im still in love with you

Life Goes On
A friend of mine just had a real bad time.
You see, his life was shattered and he lost his mind.
His girl ran off along with his best friend,
And through emotional stress he brought his life to an end.
It was such a tragedy,
But thats the way its got to be.
Life goes on.
Life goes on.
It happens evry day.
So appreciate what you got
Before its taken away.
Life will hit you
When youre unprepared,
So be grateful and take all
That you can while youre there.
Get that frown off your head,
cause youre a long time dead.
Life goes on and on and on.
Life goes on and on and on.
No use runnin round lookin scared,
Life could get you when youre unaware.
One day its gonna come, so you better accept it.
Life will hit you when you least expect it.
And one day when you are gone,
You know that life will still go on.
But no onell care if youve been good, bad, right or wrong.
Life will still go on.
My bank went broke and my well ran dry.
It was almost enough to contemplate suicide.
I turned on the gas, but I soon realized
I hadnt settled my bill so they cut off my supply.
No matter how I try, it seems Im too young to die.
Life goes on and on and on.
Life goes on and on and on.
Tornado, cyclone and hurricane
Can batter the houses with the thunder and rain.
Blizzards can blow; the waves hit the shore,
But the people recover and come back for more.
Somehow the people fight back, even the future looks black.
Life goes on and on and on.
Life goes on and on and on.

Nobody Knows You When Youre Down & Out
Once I lived the life of a millionaire
Spending my money, I didnt care
Takin my friends out for a mighty good time
Drinkin high priced liquor, champagne and wine
Then I began to fall so low
Couldnt buy me no friends, have no place to go
If I ever get my hands on a dollar again
Im gonna hold on to it, till the eagle grins
I said nobody knows you when youre down and out
In your pocket, you aint got one penny
And your friends, you didnt have any
Just as soon as you get up on your feet again
Everybody wants to be your long-lost friend
Oh lord without a doubt
Nobody wants you, nobody needs you nobody wants you
When youre down and out
I say nobody wants you
Nobody needs you
Nobody wants you when youre down and out
