"When Love Goes Wrong"

"When Love Goes Wrong"



It's a moonlight night, a hot July, a rainy day in August
well it doesn't matter where you are everything is magic
Ain't it strange that love can make you feel
like you're floating on air
You can see some good in everyone anywhere
That's when you least expect the pain
here comes the rain
what's the mystery of change, that no one knows

When love goes wrong, nothing goes right
Days last so long, the lonely nights
When love goes wrong

It's the thrill you feel, when sex appeals
pounding you like thunder
When that someone's there to pull you in
It's in a spell you're under
Ain't it strange that love can make you feel
like you're floating on air
You can see some good in everyone anywhere
well it doesn't matter who or what ya going through
If the table turns on you, then you will know

So if you've got someone to love,
love them while you can
If you got someone to hold, don't throw it away

When love goes wrong you fall apart
try as you might, a broken heart.

"Where Do We Go From Here?"

"Where Do We Go From Here?"



I saw you tonight
Going through all the motions with me
And wondered inside
If we were truly both sincere

You showed no surprise
When the evening had almost ended
And whispered confused
Tell me where do go from here

Past emotions, filling my memories
Lovers potion that hypnotize
Could it be time has rearranged, what remains
Of the fire that lit our lives, can it still survive

I felt so alone
Though I knew you were right beside me
How could it be so
Will we ever be as near?
To the world we held so dear
Tell me where do go from here?

Where are the thoughts
That disappear, where do we go from here

Past emotions, filling my memories
Lovers potion that hypnotize
Could it be time has rearranged, what remains
Of the fire that lit our lives, can it still survive

So now that we know
Something's wrong with our situation
The question remains
Will our thoughts disappear
When there's so much left unclear
Where do we go from here?

Where are the thoughts
That disappear, where do we go from here

"Where Have All The Flowers Gone"

"Where Have All The Flowers Gone"



Where have all the
flowers gone
A long time passing
Where have all the flowers gone
A long ago
Where have all the flowers gone
Girl, they're picked up, every one
When will they ever learn
When will they ever learn

Where have all the soldiers gone
Long time passing
Where have all the soldiers gone
A long ago
Where have all the soldiers gone
They've gone to graveyards every one
When will they ever learn
When will they ever learn

When will they learn, ever learn
When will they learn
When will they learn, ever learn
When will they ever learn
When will they ever learn

If you don't know what we're talkin' about
when we say this
There's too many starvin' children
If ya don't know what we're killing each other
And We just ain't got time for ya brother
No no hey hey ...

"Why?"

"Why?"


Do you feel what I feel
When you look at me
Why do I feel in my heart
That we're meant to be
Please forgive the words I say
Whenever you're around
You're my sweetest dream
A treasure I have found

[Chorus:]
Why - How can we find true love again
The healing kind that takes your mind
Why - How can we reach the soul within
Give all our heart and be born again
Rededicate this love affair - release it in the air
Rely upon the wings of love to take us there

My arms are open wide come get
This gift of love from me
I will give you anything
Cause' you hold the key
Just lay your body on me
And nature will run free
We can give inside -making love all night
And find our destiny

[Chorus]

Why does my heart tell me its right
Feeling you touch all though the night
Tell me your love will never die
The thought of you is a natural high

"Win Or Lose"

"Win Or Lose"



I know that I'm afraid of live
The tolls seems very steep
Your goals so uncontrollable
Impossible to keep

Despite the songs of lucky ones
Those very special few
Can't right the wrongs that often come
No matter what we do

I imagine that the feeling's close to none
All that passion running rampant sounds like fun
But when the trouble starts
I've heard of broken hearts
A hackneyed phrase-but one that I suspect is true
And so I wonder will I win or will I lose

Most come down, familiar ground a safer veiw
No more concerned with if they win or if they lose

The journey must be made
The hand is dealt, it must be played
It comes to all of us, we can't escape our dues
But I'm still holding back
I want my heart intact
Until the time that I'm unable to refuse

Inconsequential if I stumble up the rocks
or catapulted if I shoot right to the top
When I on love depend
My only question then
...is will I lose or will I win
So I wonder, yes I wonder

"Wonderland"

"Wonderland"



Come on in and enter as a child
Always wear a smile
Love and laughter here all the while
The flag of salvation waves around

Freedom here abounds
The joy in the sound
Calls my name, on this day

I know my heart is free in wonderland
And it's all because of you my Lord
And all my eyes can see in wonderland
Every day a sunny day

Leave behind your shame and your disgrace
Here they have no place
You will wear the garment of His grace
The rising sun will never set again

Sorrows at its end
And every word that spoken shouts amen
Take me there

I know my heart is free in wonderland
And it's all because of you my Lord
And all my eyes can see in wonderland
Every day a sunny day

I know my heart is free in wonderland
And it's all because of you my Lord
And all my eyes can see in wonderland
Every day a sunny day

Every day's a world of peace, peace
Flows like a river through me, me
Calls my name, on this day

I know my heart is free in wonderland
And it's all because of you my Lord
And all my eyes can see in wonderland
Every day a sunny day

I know my heart is free in wonderland
And it's all because of you my Lord
And all my eyes can see in wonderland
Every day a sunny day

Let's build a new day
Just show me the way

Love flows, how crazy
Conditions at the moment
Our mission set us straight (ooh, yeah)

The system is a minority vault
You're as good as gold as long as you're an institution

The pendulum is swingin' right above your head

We gonn' work it out
We gonn' turn this round

"Wouldn't Change A Thing About You"

"Wouldn't Change A Thing About You"


If I were king and I ruled the world
I would make it safe for the boys and girls
There's so much I would do
But I wouldn't change a thing about you

If the summer could last till spring
Or a fallen sparrow could sprout new wings
Then I'd change that too
But I wouldn't change a thing about you.

All the love that you've been giving
All the joy that we've been living through
I wouldn't change a thing about you

[Bridge:]
Too little love and too much hate
When times get tough
Looking for something 'cause
I just can't get enough
But when I'm feeling down
You're there to see me through
I wanna hold ya, touch ya
Give you love all the time
'Cause when I'm with you, girl
I feel like the world is mine
Tell you baby, there's nothing
I wouldn't do for you

The sun comes out when I hear your name
I get butterfiles, do you feel the same?
That's what love can do
No, I wouldn't change a thing about you

In this imperfect world we're living
Perfect love like ours is rare, it's true
No, I wouldn't change a thing about you

[Bridge]

If I were king and I ruled the world
I would make it safe for the boys and girls
There's so much I would do
But I wouldn't change a thing about you

All the love that you've been giving
All the joy that we've been
living through
I wouldn't change a thing about you

la la la la
la la la la
I wouldn't change a thing about you

"Yearnin', Learnin'"

"Yearnin', Learnin'"



Once upon a time, a child was born
With a light, to carry on,
Didn't know what he had to be, had a feelin'
He was bound to see...

So the streets, he fled to shine
In a world of a different kind,
As he yearn, so he learn.

Stop! Look what's behind you
Fame and love gonna find you
We're just here to remind you
Yearn and learn is what you do.

He just felt so, good inside
Watchin' people come alive
Throbbin' rhythm and it stirs your soul
Melodies of joy unfold...

Gives your heart such a special treat
Clap your hands, stomp your feet...
As we yearn, so we learn.

Stop! Look what's behind you
Fame and love gonna find you
We're just here to remind you
Yearn and learn is what you do.

"You"

"You"



She was naive, and never knew
Back against the world-her dreams came true
There is a mirror in her eyes,
all the world with cherry painted skies
I would be a fool, not to notice who,
can make me want to give it all
Oh, and now, I'm a happy soul
that love has got a hold
And I know that love won't let me fall

You-light the way, you brighten up my day
You make me want to stay,
I guess you know that I'm in love with you
It's true, you changed my point of view,
and now I look at life, the way you do,
with a beauty shining thru

When I am true with my dreams
life is so sincere, in what it means
I am truly hypnotized-with a love
that took me by surprise
I would be a fool, not to notice who,
can make me want to give it all
Oh and now, love is so profound.
I need your love around to open yp,
this lonely heart

You-light the way, you brighten up my day
You make me want to stay,
I guess you know that I'm in love with you
It's true, you changed my point of view,
and now I look at life, the way you do,
with a beauty shining thru

You-light the way, you brighten up my day
You make me want to stay,
I guess you know that I'm in love with you
It's true, you changed my point of view,
You make it all seem right,
I'd love to share my life, with you
