"A Moment Of Forever"

"A Moment Of Forever"



Was it wonderful for you?
Was it holy as it was for me?
Did you feel the hand of destiny
That was guiding us together?

You were young enough to dream
I was old enough to learn something new
I'm so glad I got to dance with you
For a moment of forever

Sometimes when you're cryin', you're happy
Sometimes you're just cryin'
I know. I know.

Come whatever happens now
Ain't it nice to know that dreams still come true
I'm so glad that I was close to you
For a moment of forever.

"Aguila Del Norte"

"Aguila Del Norte"



Did anybody see them?
I heard there was a baby
Somebody heard her crying
Weaker through the night

They beat her mama bloody
And shot her with her daddy
It was the terror from above
El Aguila Del Norte

Down in Nicaragua
Running from the shadows
Striking holy terror
Deeper in the heart

You believe in Freedom
And you believe in justice
But not in Nicaragua
Not in Nicaragua

Aguila Del Norte
We can see your power
And the beauty of your freedom
What is in your heart?

You believe in honor
And you believe in Jesus
But not in Nicaragua
Not in Nicaragua

"Anthem '84"

"Anthem '84"



If you're looking for a fighter who'll defend you
And love you for your Freedom. I'm your man.
And I ain't gonna leave you for the crazy things you're doing
But don't ask me to lend a helping hand.

You were such a pretty dream as I remember
You were young and strong and God was on your side.
But vision slowly faded like the wonder from your eyes
And you traded your compassion for your pride.

But I still believe in all that we believed in.
And I pray to God that you will in the end.
And you'll see the golden chances that you're wasting.
And be the loving beauty that you can.

But I still believe in all that we believed in.
And I pray to God that you will in the end.
And you'll see the golden chances that you're wasting.
And be the loving beauty that you can.

"Back In My Baby's Arms Again"
(with Rita Coolidge)

"Back In My Baby's Arms Again"
(with Rita Coolidge)



I'm back in my baby's arms again I'm thankful too
I'm back in my baby's arms again that love is true
I'm back in my baby's arms again where I should be
Cause I know where I've been I was lost in sin
But I'm back in my baby's arms again

Well I hurt her so that I had to hide I would stay away not to face my pride
But she saw me through to the truth inside
And I'm back in my baby's arms again with the love that I stole
I'm back in my baby's arms again God bless her soul
I'm back in my baby's arms again and I know it's real

I pray the Lord I remember when cause it's better now than it's ever been
He came back to me like a long lost friend and I'm back in my baby's arms again
I'm back in my baby's arms again I'm thankful too...
I'm back in my baby's arms again

"Bad Love Story"

"Bad Love Story"


Once again you tried to show me
What my eyes refused to see
In the lines between the painful scene we're in
With the silence falling coldly
On a world of make-believe
And the ending that I still don't understand

[Chorus:]
It's a bad love story
That I've had to learn by heart
'cause I've lived these lines so many times before
And it's a shame the way the same old ending
Still tears me apart
Where the lady still don't love me anymore

I can see the truth before me
Like a mirror on the wall
With a crack or two for every fool I've been
And I see the lady waiting
For her count-down curtain call
And it's looking like the place that I came in

[Chorus:]
It's a bad love story
That I've had to learn by heart
'cause I've lived these lines so many times before
And it's a shame the way the same old ending
Still tears me apart
Where the lady still don't love me anymore

"Best Of All Possible Worlds"

"Best Of All Possible Worlds"



I was runnin' through the summer rain tryin' to catch the evenin' train
And kill that old familiar pain weevin' through my tangled brain
When I tipped my bottle back I smacked into a cop I didn't see
That policeman said Mr Cool if you're ain't drunk then you're a fool
I said if that's against the law tell me why I never saw
A man locked in that jail of yours who wadn't just as lowdown poor as me
Well that was when someone turned out the lights
And I wound up in jail to spend the night
And dream of all the wine and lonely girls in this best of all possible worlds

Well I woke up next morning feelin' like my head was gone
And like my thick old tongue was lickin' somethin' sick and wrong
And I told that man I'd sell my soul if somethin' wet and cold is that old cell
That kindly jailer grinned at me all eaten up with sympathy
Then bought himself another beer and came and whispered in my ear
That booze was just a dime a bottle boy you couldn't even buy the smell
I said I knew there was somethin' I liked about this town
But it takes more than that to bring me down down down
Cause there's still a lot of wine and lonely girls in this best of all possible worlds

Well they finally came and told me they was a gonna set me free
And I'd be leavin' town if I knew what was good for me
I said it's nice to learn that everybody's so concerned about my health
I said I won't be leavin' no more quicker than I can
Cause I've enjoyed about this much of this as I can stand
And I don't need this town of yours more than I've never needed nothing else
Cause there's still a lotta drinks that I ain't drunk
Lots of pretty thoughts that I ain't thought oh yeah
Lord there's still so many lonely girls in this best of all possible worlds

"Between Heaven And Here"

"Between Heaven And Here"



You got your reasons to choose not to ever believe me (believe me)
maybe life done you so dirty you'll never be free.
Look what you're doing to someone who surreally loves you.
Is that the lonesome old way you wanted to be ? (I didn't think so)

Partner, I know, we could be soul to soul if we want to.
Oh, ain't it worth it, there's so little lovin' today.
Wastin' our feelings on something when so little matters.
Think of the time and the chances we're throwing away.

We can do better than this we can go for the glory!
I hope to God we can handle the worst of our fears!
Then if you will if you're up to the thrill of a lifetime
maybe we'll tear down the walls between heaven and here.

Maybe the secret is making believe when it matters
maybe just keeping it simple and close to the heart.
Love is so easy to make and so easy to shatter.
We can be stronger together or tear it apart.

"Billy Dee"

"Billy Dee"



Billy Dee was seventeen when he turned twenty-one
Fooling with some foolish things he could've left alone
But he had to try to satisfy a thirst he couldn't name
Driven toward the darkness by the devils in his veins

All around the honky-tonks, searching for a sign
Gettin' by on gettin' high on women, words and wine
Some folks called him crazy, Lord, and others called him free
But we just called us lucky for the love of Billy Dee

Busy goin' his own way and speakin' his own words
Facin' and forgettin' every warnin' that he heard
Makin' friends and takin' any crazy chance he could
Gettin' busted for the bad times and believin' in the good

Billy took a beatin' from a world he meant no harm
The score was written in the scars upon his arm
Some felt he was payin' for the life he tried to lead
But all we felt was sorry for our good friend Billy Dee

It may be his soul was bigger than a body's ought to be
Singin' songs and bringin' laughter to the likes of you and me
'Cause the world he saw was sadder than the one he hoped to find
But it wasn't near as lonesome as the one he left behind

Yesterday they found him on the floor of his hotel
Reachin' toward the needle, Lord, that drove him down to hell
Some folks called it suicide, others blame the speed
But we just called it crucified when Billy Dee O.D.'d

"Blame It On The Stones"

"Blame It On The Stones"



Mister Marvin Middle Class is really in a stew
Wond'rin' what the younger generation's coming to
And the taste of his martini doesn't please his bitter tongue
Blame it on the Rolling Stones.

Blame it on the Stones; blame it on the Stones
You'll feel so much better, knowing you don't stand alone
Join the accusation; save the bleeding nation
Get it off your shoulders; blame it on the Stones

Mother tells the ladies at the bridge club every day
Of the rising price of tranquilizers she must pay
And she wonders why the children never seem to stay at home
Blame it on the Rolling Stones.

Blame it on the Stones; Blame it on the Stones
You'll feel so much better, knowing you don't stand alone
Join the accusation; save the bleeding nation
Get it off your shoulders; blame it on the Stones

Father's at the office, nightly working all the time
Trying to make the secretary change her little mind
And it bothers him to read about so many broken homes
Blame it on those Rolling Stones.

Blame it on the Stones; Blame it on the Stones
You'll feel so much better knowing you don't stand alone
Join the accusation; same the bleeding nation
Get it off your shoulders; blame it on the Stones

Blame it on the stones, blame it on the stones.
