"They Can't Take That Away From Me"

"They Can't Take That Away From Me"


There are many, many crazy things
That will keep me loving you,
And with your permission
May I list a few?

The way you wear your hat.
The way you sip your tea.
The memory of all that -
No, no - they can't take that away from me.

The way your smile just beams.
The way you sing off-key.
The way you haunt my dreams.
No, no - they can't take that away from me.

We may never, never meet again
On that bumpy road to love
Still I'll always,
Always keep the memory of:

The way you hold your knife (do-do-do-do do-do).
The way we danced until three.
The way you've changed my life.
No, no - they can't take that away from me.
No, they can't take that away from me.

"Thief In The Night"

"Thief In The Night"


I could talk for hours but you wouldn't hear a word
Your own opinions make you blind
There will come a morning when the sand has all run out
There will be no time to change your mind

Like a thief in the night he will come
There will be nowhere left you can run to
You can fall with the night or you can rise
With the son

He will come in glory, a rider in the sky
The lion and the lamb rest side by side
Children of the kingdom, he will gather to himself
Children of the darkness he will leave behind

Like a thief in the night he will come
There will be nowhere left you can run to
You can fall with the night or you can rise
With the son

"This Day"

"This Day"


This day, could have been such an ordinary day
Could have gone in an uneventful way
Then you came into my world
And in my world you will stay

You girl, could have been such an ordinary girl
Could have been just an undiscovered pearl
Then love came with its magic
And made you my world

I know I will always treasure
That first moment of pleasure
When we met

If I were to live for ever
There’s one thing I would never
Quiet forget

Your kiss, could have been just an ordinary kiss
Could have been something I would never miss
But that could never be so
Not when I feel like this

If I were to live for ever
There’s one thing I would never
Quiet forget

This day, could have been such an ordinary day
Could have gone in an uneventful way
Then you came into my world
And in my world you will stay

"This New Year"

"This New Year"


I'm gonna find true love
This new year

January blues
The nights are dark and cold
The heartaches are frozen so they hount you

February snows
Abandoned cars and glowing fires
Sunlight from a shining spire blinds you

Don't you depend on love that's here then gone
Don't you look back to where the tears came from

This new year
We're gonna make it work now and for a lifetime
This new year
Gonna spread the word and shout it from the rooftops
Gonna find true love and cherish it, cherish it always
This new year

Cool winds in the spring
Blow the cobwebs out
Take away the doubts with freedom

Hear this beating heart
The feeling so alive
With you right by my side I'll never die lonely

We must depend on love that's here to stay
And Jesus loves you more than you can say

This new year
We're gonna make it work now and for a lifetime
This new year
We're gonna spread the word and shout it from the rooftops
We're gonna find true love and cherish it, cherish it always

We'll see a new revival call yeah
We'll reach out to the broken ones
We'll tell it to the world
To every boy and girl that love has come

This new year
We're gonna find true love
Ooh cherish it
This new year
We're gonna make it work now and for a lifetime
This new year
We're gonna spread the word and shout it from the rooftops
This new year
We 're gonna find true love and cherish it always
This new year
We're gonna reach out to this new year

"This Was My Special Day"

"This Was My Special Day"


Your eyes seem bluer today madam
And you look a lot happyer, I'd say madam
Could it be a certain boy has filled your heart with joy
Or would you prefer not to say madam

I woke up early this morning
As the sun came over the hill
Just a breeze in the air
Not a cloud anywhere
And I knew
This was my special day

The birds sang sweeter this morning
Than I've never heard them before
As the song through the air
Would have seem to declare
That they knew
This was my special day

For me, the birds are singing
For me, the bells are ringing
For me, the sun is high in the sky
And I know why

The bells rang louder this morning
As if they had something to say
Though it's sounds so absurd
Could it be that they heard
And they knew
This was my special day

This was my special day
This was my special day

For me, the bells are ringing
For me, the birds are singing
For me, the sun is high in the sky
And I know why

The bells rang louder this morning
As if they had something to say
Though it's sounds so absurd
Could it be that they heard
And they knew
This was my special day

This was my special day
This was my special day

"Thousand Miles To Go"

"Thousand Miles To Go"


Well, there's no time like the present
To get you through your past
I'm nowhere near the future
But I'm gonna get there fast
I'm moving on, I'm moving on

Well, I'm just passed Albuquerque
But somehow you're still near
I guess the objects in my mirror
Are closer than they appear
I'm moving on, I'm moving on

And I'll know it when I get there
But I don't think I'm getting close
There's a place without your memory
Somewhere down the road
I've cried a thousand miles of tears
I got a thousand miles to go

They say life is like a highway
And sometimes the road gets rough
Girl, you're like a twister
And I can't drive fast enough
I'll keep on until you're gone

When I hit the water
And there's no place left to go
I'll hang out left in this old 'Vette
And head towards Mexico
You'll be gone but not for long

And I'll know it when I get there
But I don't think I'm getting close
There's a place without your memory
Somewhere down the road
I cried a thousand miles of tears
I got a thousand miles to go

And I will know it when I get there
But I don't think I'm getting close
There's a place without your memory
Somewhere down the road
I cried a thousand miles of tears
I got a thousand miles to go, go, oh, yeah
Here I go

Oh baby, come keep on movin'
Heading down that road
I'm drivin', baby, drivin' is the code
Gonna keep on movin', baby
Headin' down the road
Down that road

Don't know when I'll get there
Hope I get there fast
Headin' down the highway
Hope that I don't drive right past

I'm getting closer
I'm getting closer

Yeah I belong
Wherever you'll be gone

"Through The Eye Of A Needle"

"Through The Eye Of A Needle"


Through the eye of a needle
An elephant is very small
And through the eye of a needle
A mountain’s not so very tall
Look at our great big quarrel
Through the eye of a needle
Please won’t you hurry back to me, my love?

Did you know there’s a spring?
A little spring looks like a river through the eye of a pond
The way of tree looks like a forest to a twig
Thing’s that are little can’t look very big, but

Through the eye of a needle
An elephant is very small
And through the eye of a needle
A mountain’s not so very tall
Look at our great big quarrel
Through the eye of a needle
Please won’t you hurry back to me, my love?

When I think of the love
The tender love we use to share
I can’t believe one mistake could really make
Your love for me turns into hate
Things that are little can’t look very big, but

Through the eye of a needle
An elephant is very small
And through the eye of a needle
A mountain’s not so very tall
Look at our great big quarrel
Through the eye of a needle
Please won’t you hurry back to me, my love?
Be my love

"Throw Down A Line"

"Throw Down A Line"


Throw down a line, help a poor boy
Who's drowning in the stormy sea
Throw down a line, help a poor boy
Who's hanging in a nowhere tree
Have you got a place for me

Men are tied in chains of silence
I look on violence, up, down, left and right
Is there no hope of light
The peaceful hand that once caressed me

Hurts like the rest, because it's turned to stone
Talons of steel have grown

Throw down a line, help a poor boy
Who's drowning in the stormy sea
Throw down a line, help a poor boy
Who's hanging in a nowhere tree
Have you got a place for me
Yeah, oh help me, yeah

Throw down a line, help a poor boy
Who's drowning in the stormy sea
Throw down a line, help a poor boy
Who's hanging in a nowhere tree
Have you got a place for me

See the moon, it's getting nearer
But no more clearer than the earth below
What do we really know
I feel the stab of pain returning
Despair is burning in my heart again
Why don't they see the end, ooooh

Throw down a line, help a poor boy
Who's drowning in the stormy sea
Yeah, throw down a line, help a poor boy
Who's hanging in a nowhere tree
Have you got a place for me

Throw down a line, help a poor boy
Who's drowning in the stormy sea
Yeah, throw down a line, help a poor boy
Who's hanging in a nowhere tree
Have you got a place for me

"Till I'm Home Again"

"Till I'm Home Again"


Just another lonely trail
Heading through the pouring rain
I am lost in time and space
Remembering your face

Just another winding road
I don't know where it will go
All I know is that
It takes me far from you

If I had my way
I'd be there beside you today

Till I'm home again
Till I see the morning in your eyes
And though the world may spin
Here inside my heart I'm only half alive
Till I'm home again, oh, till I'm home again

When I'm high above the clouds
Or alone inside the crowd
I'm a million miles from where I want to be
And oh, day runs into night
And this room has run out of light

Till I'm home again
Till I see the morning in your eyes
And though the world may spin
Here inside my heart I'm only half alive
Till I'm home again

So tell me you will wait for me
You're the star on my horizon
Keep the fire warm for me
I'll be back before the first snow fall

Until I'm home again
Till I see the morning in your eyes
Though the world may spin
Here inside my heart, I'm only half alive
Till I'm home again, oh, till I'm home again

Till I'm home again
Wait for me
Till I'm home again
Till I'm home again

Wait for me
Till I'm home again
Till I'm home again

"Time"

"Time"


Some people run, some people crawl
Some people don’t even move at all
Some roads lead on, some roads lead back
Some roads are bathed in light, some wrapped in fearful black

Time oh time where did you go
Time oh good-good time where did you go

Some people never get, some never give
Some people never die and some never live
Some folks treat me mean, some treat me kind
Most folks just go their way
Don’t pay me any mind

Time oh time where did you go
Time oh good-good time where did you go

Sometimes I’m satisfied, sometimes I’m not
Sometimes my face is cold and sometimes it’s hot
Sunset I laugh, Sunrise I cry
At midnight I’m in between and wondering why

Time oh time where did you go
Time oh good-good time where did you go
Time oh time where did you go
