"In The Name Of Love"

"In The Name Of Love"



Do the things you believe in
In the name of love
And know that you aren't alone
We all have doubts and fears

Know throughout every season
You are the name of love
And you'll keep on feeling at home
Throughout the coming years

Change is for certain
This we all know
Each day opening the curtain
On a brand new show

Through your sorrow and grieving
Don't forget the name of love
It goes on without any end
Forever

Birth and life and death make a circle
We are all part of
To see the light everlasting
Live in the name of love
Forever

"It Could Have Been Anyone"

"It Could Have Been Anyone"



Do you know that you know me like nobody else
All of my secrets and lies
Do you know that you made me believe in myself
Made me believe I could fly
All the things that you say
That I wait for each day
You're almost too good to be true

It could have been anyone, oh, anyone
A stranger out of the blue
It could have been anyone, oh, anyone
That I gave my heart up to
But it was you

Well you just never know when the moment will come
When love is about to begin
Something about someone reaching out
And letting someone in
And I'm glad I was there
When out of thin air
We both had nothing to do

It could have been anyone, oh, anyone
A stranger out of the blue
It could have been anyone, oh, anyone
That I gave my heart up to

One day we'll find out
Why you were sent to me
Now we're together
It must be the way it was meant to be

It could have been anyone, oh, anyone
A stranger out of the blue
It could have been anyone, oh, anyone
That I gave my heart up to
But it was you

"It Might As Well Rain Until September"

"It Might As Well Rain Until September"



What shall I write?
What can I say?
How can I tell you how much I miss you?

The weather here has been as nice as it can be
Althought it doesn't really matter much to me
For all the fun I'll have while you're so far away
It might as well rain until September

I don't need sunny skies for thing I like to do
'Cause I stay home the whole day long and think of you
As far as I'm concerned each day's a rainy day
So It might as well rain until September

My friends look forward to their picnics on the beach
Yes everybody loves the summertime
But you know darling while your arms are out of reach
The summer isn't any friend of mine

It doesn't matter whethee skies are grey or blue
It's raining in my heart 'cause I can't be with you
I'm only living for the day you're home to stay
So It might as well rain until September
September, September, oh
It might as well rain until September

"It's A War"

"It's A War"



The moon is full and I'm awake
And I don't know how much
I can take
Before I get too angry to be sad
Too many people thinkin' mean
Good ones few and far between
Takin' out on you
What they never had

It's a war, war
War any more
It's a war, war
War every day
You've got to keep your guard up
If someone else is hard up
He'll try to steal your dreams away

Once I thought of compassion as
A feelin' everybody has
Do unto others
That's the golden rule
But I found to my regret
People I had never met
Were out to get me - I was just a fool

It's a war, war
War any more
It's a war, war
War every day
You've got to keep your guard up
If someone else is hard up
He'll try to steal your dreams away

"It's Going To Take Some Time"

"It's Going To Take Some Time"



It's going to take some time this time
To get myself in shape
I really fell out of line this time
I really missed the gate

The birds on the telephone line (next time)
Are cryin' out to me (next time)
And I won't be so blind next time
And I'll find some harmony

But it's going to take some time this time
And I can't make demands
But like the young trees in the wintertime
I'll learn how to bend

After all the tears we've spent
How could we make amends
So it's one more round for experience
And I'm on the road again
And it's going to take some time this time

It's going to take some time this time
No matter what I've planned
And like the young trees in the wintertime
I'll learn how to bend

After all the tears we've spent
How could we make amends
So it's one more round for experience
And I'm on the road again
And it's going to take some time this time

"It's Gonna Work Out Fine"

"It's Gonna Work Out Fine"



We've been putting each other through a hard time
And it's a mighty good feeling to know we're gonna work it out
It's gonna work out
Yeah, it's gonna work out fine

Take a look at the way it's going now
Makes you want to give a sigh of relief
You know the last thing I ever wanted to do
Was to give you any grief
I guess it was a situation
That was bound to come up someday
But our feeling for each other won out
And I'm oh-so-glad to say

Even the best of relationships
Run the risk of going awry
There's a lot two people who care about each other
Can do to make each other cry
Ain't it funny how it took a reunion
To help us to really see
With each other is the only way we can ever be

"It's Never Too Late"

"It's Never Too Late"



I used to watch all the couples going by
Feeling left out and so alone
But now I feel so much a part of them
Because I've got a man of my own

It's never too late to fall in love again
And I know, and I know
That it's true
You treat me with so much tenderness, love and respect
And I just love everything that you do

When I needed the comfort of a strong man's arms
You chased away my blues
Remember the first time when we made love
Brothers and sisters, have you heard the news

It's never too late to fall in love again
It don't pay, it don't pay
To sit there remembering when
No matter how much pain and heartache you've known
It's never too late
Never too late to love again

It's never too late to fall in love again
It's never too late to fall in love again
It's never too late to fall in love again
And I know, and I know
That it's true
It's never too late to fall in love again
I just love every little thing that you do
It's never too late to love again

"It's Too Late"

"It's Too Late"



Stayed in bed all morning just to pass the time
There's something wrong here, there can be no denying
One of us is changing, or maybe we've stopped trying

And it's too late, baby, now it's too late
Though we really did try to make it
Something inside has died and I can't hide
And I just can't fake it

It used to be so easy living here with you
You were light and breezy and I knew just what to do
Now you look so unhappy, and I feel like a fool

And it's too late, baby, now it's too late
Though we really did try to make it
Something inside has died and I can't hide
And I just can't fake it

There'll be good times again for me and you
But we just can't stay together, don't you feel it too
Still I'm glad for what we had, and how I once loved you

But it's too late, baby, it's too late
Though we really did try to make it
Something inside has died and I can't hide

"Jazzman"

"Jazzman"



Lift me, won't you lift me above the old routine
Make it nice, play it clean, Jazzman

When the Jazzman's testifyin'
A faithless man believes
He can sing you into paradise
Or bring you to your knees
It's a gospel kind of feelin'
A touch of Georgia slide
A song of pure revival
And a style that's sanctified

Jazzman, take my blues away
Make my pain the same as yours
With every change you play
Jazzman, oh, Jazzman

When the Jazzman's signifyin'
And the band is windin' low
It's the late night side of morning
In the darkness of his soul
He can fill a room with sadness
As he fills his horn with tears
He can cry like a fallen angel
When risin' time is near

Jazzman, take my blues away
Make my pain the same as yours
With every change you play

Oh, lift me, won't you lift me with every turnaround
Play it sweetly, take me down, oh, Jazzman

"Just Once In My Life"

"Just Once In My Life"



There's a lotta things I want, a lotta things that I'd like to be
But girl I don't foresee a rags to riches story for me
There's just one little dream I've got to make come true
There's just one round I've got to win, I can't be a loser with you

And baby, baby
Just once in my life let me get what I want
Girl, don't let me down
Just once in my life let me hold on to
The good thing I've found, don't let me down
Baby, say that you'll be stayin'

'Cause I couldn't face the day if you weren't here by my side
And if you went away then I'd be left without any pride
I've given up on schemes 'cause every one fell through
I've given up so many things, don't ask me to give up on you

And baby, baby
Just once in my life let me get what I want
Girl, don't let me down
Just once in my life let me hold on to
The good thing I've found, don't let me down
Baby, say that you'll be stayin'

That old pot of gold ain't so easy to find
But if you'll stand by me, girl, I'll keep peace of mind
I can't give you the world but I will work hard for you, girl
Yes, I'll work hard (everyday) all my life (you will see)
If you won't leave me (baby, don't leave)
Please don't leave me (oh no don't leave)
Just do this for me, baby

Just once in my life let me get what I want
Girl, don't let me down
Just once in my life let me hold on to
The good thing I've found, don't let me down
Baby, say that you'll be stayin'

Just once in my life let me get what I want
Girl, don't let me down
Just once in my life let me hold on to
The good thing I've found, don't let me down
Just once in my life let me get what I want
Girl, don't let me down
