"Have I Stayed Away Too Long?"

"Have I Stayed Away Too Long?"


Have I stayed away too long have I stayed away too long
If I came home tonight would you still be my darling or have I stayed away too long
The love light that shone so strong sweet sweet love light that shone so strong
If I came home tonight would that same light be shining
Or have I stayed away too long or have I stayed away too long

"He"

"He"


He can turn the ties and calm the angry sea
He alone besides who writes a symphony
He lights every star that makes a darkness bright
He keeps watch all through each long and lonely night
He still finds the time to hear a child's first prayer
Saint or sinner call and always find him there
Though it makes him sad to see the way we live he'll always say I forgive
(He can grab a wish or make a dream come true)
He can paint the clouds and turn the gray to blue)
He alone knows where to find a rainbow's end
He alone can see what lies beyond the bend
He can touch a tree and turn the leaves to gold
He knows every lie that you and I have told
Though it makes him sad to see the way we live he'll always say I forgive

"He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother"

"He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother"


The road is long, with many a winding turn
That leads us to who knows where, who knows where
But I'm strong, strong enough to carry him
He ain't heavy - he's my brother

So on we go, his welfare is my concern
No burden is he to bare, we'll get there
For I know he would not encumber me
He ain't heavy - he's my brother

If I'm laden at all, I'm laden with sadness
That everyone's heart isn't filled with gladness of love for one another
It's a long long road from which there is no return
While we're on our way to there, why not share
And the load, it doesn't weigh me down at all
He ain't heavy - he's my brother
He ain't heavy - he's my brother, he's my brother, he's my brother

"He's Got The Whole World In His Hands"

"He's Got The Whole World In His Hands"


He's got the whole world in his hands he's got the whole wild world in his hands
He's got the whole wild world in his hands he's got the whole world in his hands

He's got the little bitty baby in his hands he's got the little bitty baby in his hands
He's got the little bitty baby in his hands he's got the whole world in his hands
He's got the whole world in his hands...

He's got you and me brother in his hands he's got you and me sister in his hands
He's got you and me brother in his hands he's got the whole world in his hands
He's got the whole world in his hands...

He's got everybody here in his hands he's got everybody here in his hands
He's got everybody here in his hands he's got the whole world in his hands
He's got the whole world in his hands...
He's got you and me brother...
He's got the whole world in his hands...

"Help Me Make It Through The Night"

"Help Me Make It Through The Night"


Take the ribbons from your hair shake it loose and let it fall
Lay it soft against my skin like the shadows on the wall
Come and lay down by my side till the early morning light
All I'm taking is your time help me make it through the night
I don't care what's right or wrong now I won't try to understand
Let the devil take tomorrow Lord tonight I need a friend
Yesterday is dead and gone and tomorrow's out of sight
I don't want to be alone help me make it through the night

[Ac. Guitar]

Lord it's sad to be alone please help me make it through the night
No I don't want to be alone please help me make it through the night

"Here I Am"

"Here I Am"


If you're looking for a new love here I am
If you're searching for a true love here I am
I'll hold you day and night no I'll never let you out of my sight
If you're looking for a true love here I am
Have you ever been lonely have you ever have you ever felt real blue
Does your heart need that someone who is kind faithful and true
If you're looking for that someone here I am
If you're searching for an only one well here I am
Oh I've never shared a true love and I've never ever had a real love
If you're looking for a good love here I am oh Lord here I am

"Here We Go Again"

"Here We Go Again"


Here we go again she's back in town again
I'll take her back again one more time
Here we go again the phone will ring again
I'll be her fool again one more time.

I've been there before and I'll try it again
But any fool knows that there's no way to win
Here we go again she'll break my heart again
I'll play the part again one more time.

[Instrumental]

Here we go again she'll break my heart again
I'll play the part again one more time.

I'll play the part again one more time...

"Hey, Little One"

"Hey, Little One"


Hey little one so far from home and so alone
Hey little one I'm just like you I'm lonely too
The road of life is a long long road when you walk alone
Then I found you I found a love a love I've never known a love I've never known
Hey hey hey hey little one don't go away tell me you'll stay
Hey hey hey hey little one I'm just like you I'm so lonely too

"Highwayman"

"Highwayman"


I was a highwayman along the coach roads I did ride
With the sword and pistol by my side
Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade
Many a soldier shed his life blood on my blade
The bastards hung me in the spring of '25
But I am still alive

I was a sailor, I was born upon the tide
And with the sea I did abide
I sailed a schooner 'round the horn of Mexico
I went aloft to furl the mainsail in a blow
And when the yards broke off they say that I got killed
But I am living still, perhaps I'll always, I don't know

I was a dam builder across the river deep and wide
Where steel and water did collide
A place called Boulder on the wild Colorado
I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below
They buried me in that great tomb that knows no sound
But I am still around, seems like it all goes 'round and 'round and 'round
And 'round and 'round yes it goes when here we go

I'll fly a starship across the universe divide
And when I reach the other side
I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can
Perhaps I may become a highwayman again
Or I may simply be a single drop of rain
But I will remain and I'll be back again
Yes, I will when here we go but I'll be back again
Yes, I will when here we go but I'll be back again

"Hold On Hope"

"Hold On Hope"


Every street is dark
And folding out mysteriously
Where lies the chance
We take to be always working
Reaching out for a hand
That we can't see
Everybody's got a hold on hope
It's the last thing that's holding me

Invitation to the last dance
Then it's time to leave
That's the price we pay
When we deceive
One another animal mother
She opens up for free
Everybody's got a hold on hope
It's the last thing that's holding me

Look at the talkbox
In mute frustration
At the station
There hides the cowboy

Look at the talkbox
In mute frustration
At the station
There hides the cowboy
His campfire flickering
On the landscape
That nothing grows on
But time still goes on
And through each life of misery

Everybody's got a hold on hope
It's the last thing that's holding me
