I’ve been walking down this long road simply taking in the view
I’ve wandered down some wrong roads hit a dead end or two
Before I even take a step
I’ve gotta learn to forget
I don’t know ’bout you, what life has brought you through
But we’ll keep walking on, headed home, and see what He will do
We’re a world away from where we started
No more looking behind
We can make it if we just hold on
Keep the faith ’cause love’s on our side
I point my heart in His direction before I even take a step
I’ve to learned to follow my affections, walk away from foolish pride
When I think of where we started, look to the end
See the distance is less now than when we began
And It’s now I see, I need you right here with me
And we’ll keep walking on, head home, if we just believe
We’re a world away from where we started
No more looking behind
We can make it if we just hold on
Keep the faith ’cause love’s on our side
We’re a world away but we’re not there yet
There’s a whole lot of road up ahead
I want to ride every single mile with you
We’re a world away
No more yesterdays, we’re a world away
The One who has made a way for you and me
Is the same One who’s seen us do everything wrong
But He can make it all right
If we believe it’s true
If we say what we say
And do what we do
And hold on the Him
He’s gonna see us through.

Leaft me around
And nurse my broken wing
with all the promises
you can never honour
I just don’t care enough
to react to vain attempts
sent only to pepetuate on selfish little world
you wont see what I’ve become
You’ll wait and watch and still
your only let down
a violent little reaction
struggling only to keep myself alive
now here I stand
for nothing no one at all
I lead you down
begging to touch you in the cold
you give me a reason
I will not be the one
Through all the nonsense
There is a constant
you wont see what I’ve become
You’ll wait and watch and still
your only let down
cause this felling
has dawned on the face of you
a violent little reaction
struggling only to keep myself alive
you wont see what I’ve become
cause this felling
has dawned on the face of you
a violent little reaction
struggling only to keep myself alive

The yellow moon looks down now
Lights the scene for the night ahead
Surround the chairs in a circle
And I just can’t sit down

{chorus}
But the freak stares on
Puts on his glasses and he smokes it down
That don’t matter for much now/dear/downhere
He says, “I’m gonna put your head on
and don’t you screw it up.”

The message was delivered
The mothers wept uncontrollably
Mad children went to the warehouse
Heavens trumpets blow

{chorus}
{chorus}

Dancing in the moonlight
Heartaches to caress
Win or lose
It doesn`t make much odds

Shadows fight shadow fade
It is time not too late
For wakeing
From a dream
Night must be our daily bread
Or never what they seem

A voice in the dark
Knowing a better kind of love
A voice like a spark
Careless whisper
Of a dove
Secrets told
New and old
Mysteries unfold
Feel in the night
Voices in the dark
Bringing the light
Voices in the dark

Crying in the moonlight
Dying planet`s way
Where are those who used to show
The way
Shadows fight shadow fade
It is time not too late
For wakeing
From a dream
Night must be our daily bread
Or never what they seem

My heart was so heavy with longing for you
My arms were so lonely, lonesome and blue
Alone in my sorrow, I heard a voice cry
A voice in the wilderness, a voice from the sky

Have faith in your darling, the voice seemed to say
Be true to her memory, she’ll come back some day
And though there was no-one, nobody to see
A voice in the wilderness brought comfort to me


We had a quarrel, I was unkind
Why did you leave me, love made me blind
My darling forgive me, I yearn for your touch
Have pity, come back now, I need you so much
Believe me and you’ll hear it, that voice from above
The voice in the wilderness, the voice of true love


Believe me and you’ll hear it, that voice from above
A voice in the wilderness, the voice of true love.
My heart was so heavy with longing for you
My arms were so lonely, lonesome and blue
Alone in my sorrow, I heard a voice cry
A voice in the wilderness, a voice from the sky


Have faith in your darling, the voice seemed to say
Be true to her memory, she’ll come back some day
And though there was no-one, nobody to see
A voice in the wilderness brought comfort to me


We had a quarrel, I was unkind
Why did you leave me, love made me blind
My darling forgive me, I yearn for your touch
Have pity, come back now, I need you so much
Believe me and you’ll hear it, that voice from above
The voice in the wilderness, the voice of true love


Believe me and you’ll hear it, that voice from above
A voice in the wilderness, the voice of true love.

Young girl, don’t cry
I’ll be right here when your world starts to fall
Young girl, it’s all right
Your tears will dry, you’ll soon be free to fly

When you’re safe inside your room you tend to dream
Of a place where nothing’s harder than it seems
No one ever wants or bothers to explain
Of the heartache life can bring and what it means

When there’s no one else
Look inside yourself
Like your oldest friend
Just trust the voice within
Then you’ll find the strength
That will guide your way
If you will learn to begin
To trust the voice within

Young girl, don’t hide
You’ll never change if you just run away
Young girl, just hold tight
And soon you’re gonna see your brighter day

Now in a world where innocence is quickly claimed
It’s so hard to stand your ground when you’re so afraid
No one reaches out a hand for you to hold
When you’re lost outside look inside to your soul


When there’s no one else
Look inside yourself
Like your oldest friend
Just trust the voice within
Then you’ll find the strength
That will guide your way
If you will learn to begin
To trust the voice within

Yeah…
Life is a journey
It can take you anywhere you choose to go
As long as you’re learning
You’ll find all you’ll ever need to know

You’ll make it
You’ll make it
Just don’t go forsaking yourself
No one can stop you
You know that I’m talking to you

When there’s no one else
Look inside yourself
Like your oldest friend
Just trust the voice within
Then you’ll find the strength
That will guide your way
If you will learn to begin
To trust the voice within

Young girl don’t cry
I’ll be right here when your world starts to fall

I know you’re walkin’ down lonely street
I know you can’t get out of the heat
Baby, it’s alright
Don’t have a wasted life

I know you have to feel a little used up
And no one can give you enough
Baby hold on tight

Don’t have a wasted life
I love you too much
Don’t have a wasted life
I love you too much

They give it to you from the time you’re born
You keep tryin’ to make one more score
Baby it’s alright
You gotta stand and fight
So when you’re lonely and you feel let down
You can call me I’ll come around
And treat you nice
Don’t have a wasted life
I love you too much — uh,uh, uh, don’t have a wasted life

It’s a waiting game you play.
Still you think that you can win,
So you play on,
Play on.
And the rush hour weaves you home.
In another day you’ll break.
You will break down.
(I know it)
Like me.
~ Don’t be that way, don’t act like that.
~ Please don’t be like me.
On the business card you’ll leave
Is a name that you don’t own.
Credit given, credit taken.
Take it.
In another day you’ll sink.
You’re the only one afloat,
And the best move, if you’ll make it,
(You won’t make it)
Is to leave.

(Lainie Marsh)

I hear the clock a tickin’
See the sweat upon my brow
I know my destination
Nothing’s gonna stop me now
I’m running on desire
Baby I’ve got nerves of steel
Coming down to the wire
Lord above me guide the wheel

Keep me in your prayers tonight
I’ll be weary upon that road
I know the finish line’s in sight
But I still have a ways to go

There’s a junkyard dog a barkin’
In the valley down below
He’s wanting me to stop and
Gather up a heavy load
Ain’t gonna heed his call
Ain’t givin’ him the time of day
You mangy mutt once and for all
I said I threw that stuff away

I won’t have a bit of trouble
Heading down the straight and true
I’ll fly solo on the double
Into the yonder blue

I might need some intervention
Out upon the icy turn
In a foggy situation
Squealin’ on a hairpin curve

I’m running on desire
Baby I’ve got nerves of steel
Coming down to the wire
Lord above me guide the wheel

Keep me in your prayers tonight
I’ll be weary upon that road
I know the finish line’s in sight
But I still have a ways to go
Keep me in your prayers tonight
I’ll be weary upon that road
I know the finish line’s in sight
But I still have a ways to go
Got a ways to go, got a ways to go

There she is sitting there
Out behind the smoke-house in her rocking chair
She don’t do nothin’
She don’t say nothin’
She don’t feel nothin’
She don’t know nothin’
Maybe she’s crazy, I don’t know
But maybe that’s why I love her so

Her papa was a midget
Her mama was a whore
Her grandad was a newsboy ’til he was eighty-four
Man don’t you think I know she hates me
Man don’t you think I know that she’s no good
If she knew how she’d be unfaithful to me
I think she’d kill me if she could
Maybe she’s crazy I don’t know
But maybe that’s why I love her so

I’m not afraid of the greywolf
Who stalks through our forest at dawn
As long as I have her beside me
I have the strength to carry on

Today we will be married
And all the freaks that she knows will be there
And all the people from the village will be there
To congratulate us
I will carry her across the threshold
I will make dim the light
I will attempt to spend my love within her
But though I try with all my might
She will laugh at my mighty sword
She will laugh at my mighty sword
Why must everybody laugh at my mighty sword?
Lord, hep me if you will
Maybe we’re both crazy, I don’t know
Maybe that’s why I love her so
