"In Your Eyes"

"In Your Eyes"



In your eyes, I see gentle rain
Springtime comes, in love again
puts me back on my feet again
and in your eyes, i feel no pain

and in my mind, I saw love walk past
a lovers dream within my grasp
I never knew I could fall so fast
but in your eyes I found love at last

I found your love waiting at my door,
I found a dream come true
I've never known a love like this before
and if you take me there, I'll be waiting for you

I found your love waiting at my door,
I found a dream come true
I've never known a love like this before
and if you take me there, I'll be waiting for you

In your eyes, I see gentle light
it gives me hope, it gives me life
it gives me love when I hold you tight
and in your eyes I found love tonight
and in your eyes I found love tonight

"It All Comes Down To You"

"It All Comes Down To You"



Who do you think you're talkin' to.
You know me, and I know you.
Your silence and your stony face,
You don't have the ground to waste.
Your love is gone, 'cos it all comes down to you.

What can we say when all is said?
A house divided cannot stand.
Your head and heart and chary gaze,
Life is just too short to waste.
Your love is gone, 'cos it all comes down to you.

I've paid for you and you don't seem to mind.
I'm bending over backwards; you're not satisfied.
What more can I offer, to leave 'pon the alter?
Love is gone, 'cos it all comes down to you.

What can we do when all is done?
Your life's not the only one.
Just take a look beyond yourself,
The reason of your private hell:
Your love is gone, 'cos it all comes down to you.

I've paid for you and you don't seem to mind.
I'm bending over backwards; you're not satisfied.
What more can I offer, to leave 'pon the alter?
Love is gone, 'cos it all comes down to you.

"It Doesn't Matter"

"It Doesn't Matter"



It doesn't matter what I want
It doesn't matter what I need
It doesn't matter if I cry
Don't matter if I bleed
You've been on a road
Don't know where it goes or where it leads

It doesn't matter what I want
It doesn't matter what I need
If you've made up your mind to go
I won't beg you to stay
You've been in a cage
Throw you to the wind you fly away

It doesn't matter what I want
It doesn't matter what I need
It doesn't matter if I cry
Doesn't matter if I bleed
Feel the sting of tears
Falling on this face you've loved for years

"It Don't Matter Now"

"It Don't Matter Now"



It's finally come
Is that sorry on your breath?
Where were you when I was sitting back here
Missing you to death?
It don't matter now
How, I wanna know
Can you tell me plain and true
How high will you fly
Without me there to be your sky?
Well, it don't matter now

Don't mean to leave you standing on your own
I think back on days and nights we had long ago
Maybe love is just a game you play
This much I do know
It don't matter now

It's finally come
Is that sorry on your breath?
Where were you when I was sitting back here
Missing you to death?
It don't matter now
Now I don't tell stories
And I don't pretend
I won't be around to say I told you then
Cause it seems like something's finally broken
That'll take a lot of mend
But it don't matter now

Is that sorry on your breath?
Where were you when I was sitting back here
Missing you to death?
It don't matter now
It don't matter now
It don't matter now

"It Won't Work This Time"

"It Won't Work This Time"



You walked up yesterday and you told me you were leavin'
Left a note sayin' momma won't be back
But you'll come back and I've got news for you dear
You won't have a home and that's a fact

Don't you come back on your knees asking my forgiveness
Pack your bags and move on down the line
Don't you roll them eyes at me, tellin' me your sorry
It's too late babe, and it won't work this time

I've always been around, Lord when you needed someone
I played the role 'til I knew each line by heart
But now it's time to change, won't you find another playmate
Someone who'll be glad to play the part

Don't you come back on your knees asking my forgiveness
Pack your bags and move on down the line
Don't you roll them eyes at me, tellin' me your sorry
It's too late babe, and it won't work this time

Don't you come back on your knees asking my forgiveness
Pack your bags and move on down the line
Don't you roll them eyes at me, tellin' me your sorry
It's too late babe, and it won't work this time

"It Wouldn't Have Made Any Difference"

"It Wouldn't Have Made Any Difference"



Do you remember the last time I said
If I ever thought of lying
I'd rather think of dying instead
And the last time you called me
To say we were through
How it took a million tears
Just to prove they all were for you

But it wouldn't have made any difference,
If you loved me
How could you love me
When it wouldn't have made any difference,
If you loved me
You just did not love me

'Cause I know of hundreds of times I could be
In the most unfaithful arms
That you always picture me
Though I can't always show proof I was true
No one else could change my mind
Or stop me coming home to you

But it wouldn't have made any difference,
If you loved me
How could you love me
When it wouldn't have made any difference,
If you loved me
You just did not love me

Enough to believe me
Enough not to leave me
Enough not to look for
A reason to be unhappy with me
And make me regret ever wanting you

It wouldn't have made any difference
Wouldn't have made any difference

"It's Over"

"It's Over"



The nights are so lonely and the days pass me by
True love has faded, left me behind
So we'll just move along and stop wasting time
It's over all over now

It's over, end of the line
It's over and your doin' fine
It's over and over and over, I'm asking why
You're leaving it's over now

Gone are the love songs that only we knew
Robbed by the cold wind that sings the night through
Gone is the sweet love, tried but untrue
It's over all over now

It's over, end of the line
It's over and my desperate heart is still trying to find some way, hoping you'll stay
Cause it's over, all over now
It's over, all over now

"Jacob's Dream"

"Jacob's Dream"



In the spring of 1856 with the snow still on the ground
Two little boys were lost in the mountains above the town
The father went out hunting the boys had stayed behind
While mother tended to her chores they wandered from her side

The two had gone to follow him and lost their way instead
By dusk the boys had not been found and fear had turned to dread
200 men had gathered there to comb the mountain side
The fires were built on the highest peak in hopes they'd see the light

Oh mommy and daddy why can't you hear our cries
The day is almost over, soon it will be night
We're so cold and hungry and our feet are tired and sore
We promise not to stray again from our cabin door

Now Jacob Diverd woke one night from a strange and erie dream
He saw a path between two hills near a dark and swollen stream
He told his wife he saw the boys huddled close beside a log
For two more nights the dream returned this vision sent from God

Oh mommy and daddy why can't you hear our cries
The day is almost over, soon it will be night
We're so cold and hungry and our feet are tired and sore
We promise not to stray again from our cabin door

a thousand men had searched in vain the west side of pop's creek
But Jacob's wife knew of this place and said to travel east
With a guide to take him there, Jacob came upon the scene
And found the boys cold and still beneath the old birch tree

Oh mommy and daddy, look past the tears you cry
We're both up in Heaven now, God is by our side
As you lay us down to rest in the presence of the Lord
Know that we will meet you here at Heaven's door

Oh mommy and daddy, look past the tears you cry
We're both up in Heaven now, God is by our side
And as you lay us down to rest in the presence of the Lord
Know that we will meet you here at Heaven's door

"Jesus Help Me To Stand"

"Jesus Help Me To Stand"



Through trials, troubles and care
I know Jesus my savior is there
Giving me faith through darkest days
Keeping me on the narrow way

Jesus savior, help me each day
Fill me with hope, fill me with faith
Darkness retreats at the touch of Your hand
Jesus savior, help me to stand

Jesus lived through darkest pain
Rejected by men, despising the shame
Man of sorrows, acquainted with grief
He gave his life so we may be free

Jesus savior, help me each day
Fill me with hope, fill me with faith
Darkness retreats at the touch of Your hand
Jesus savior, help me to stand

I know that Jesus died for me
Cancelled my debt at Calvary
Rose from the dead, unlocked Heaven's door
Trust in his love and live evermore

Jesus savior, help me each day
Fill me with hope, fill me with faith
Darkness retreats at the touch of Your hand
Jesus savior, help me to stand

"Killing The Blues"

"Killing The Blues"


Leaves were falling, just like embers,
In colors red and gold, they set us on fire
Burning just like a moonbeam in our eyes.

[Chorus:]
Somebody said they saw me, swinging the world by the tail
Bouncing over a white cloud, killing the blues.

Now I am guilty of something...
I hope you never do
Because there is nothing
Sadder than losing yourself in love.

[Chorus]

Now you asked me... just to leave you
To go out on my own
And get what I need to
You want me to find what I've already had.

[Chorus x2]
