Leave the Light On

I feel the sun of a brand new day
I take a walk in its healing rays
But a darkness still shelters me
I think about how it used to be
The way your smile took a hold of me
How it pulled me out of the shade
Just keep your faith strong
I'll keep a hold on
To the hope still inside of me
Our love can't be wrong so leave the light on
While the weight of the world still terrifies me
So many reasons to push on through
There's more to see and so much to do
And I need you here by my side
I'll do my best to be what you need
And be the man that you see in me
In the dark I search for your light
Just keep your faith strong
I'll keep a hold on
To the fight still inside of me
Our love can't be wrong so leave the light on
While the weight of the world still terrifies me
Will I ever be free?
Yes I want to believe
There's a place we can hide from the doubt and defeat
Will you still be there?
It's a thought I can't bear
Give me one more chance
Won't you answer my prayer
Just keep your faith strong
I'll keep a hold on
To the good still inside of me
Or love can't be wrong so leave the light on
While the weight of the world still terrifies me
Never leave me lonely
Please let it be me

Love Is Alright

Love is alright it's a trusted friend
There in the beginning it will be there in the end
Love lay beside you got you through the night
Now you wake up in the morning you can see the light
Love is alright
What can you say?
A wildflower on a fine May day
Seems so fragile the wind might take it away
But love is alright
Love's been through the war
Around the block and now it's knocking at your door
Love is alright
Any day
It's always been there and it's here to stay
Love is only human it won't always win the fight
But love is alright
Alright
Love is alright
Alright
Love is alright
Love is alright
Any day
Love is timeless it will have it's way
When you least expect it comes dancing into sight
Love is alright
That's what I say
Always all around us in so many ways
It can stand up in the darkness keep on shining bright
Love is alright
Love is alright
Love is alright

Tides

Gently rocking on the tides that bind us
Out in the open where the light can find us
Ever present future to remind us
A perfect place to leave the past behind us
Gently rolling where the living takes us
Don't need excuses or someone to make us
Our course is charted to our satisfaction
Natural motion makes a smooth reaction
Gently rocking on the tides that bind us
Out in the open where the light can find us
Ever present future to remind us
A perfect place to leave the past behind us
No gates, no walls, no borders
No hate, no greed, no orders
No interest in a life of sorrow
We dream peacefully until tomorrow
Gently rocking on the tides that bind us
Out in the open where the light can find us
Ever present future to remind us
A perfect place to leave the past behind us
Gently rocking on the tides that bind us
Out in the open where the light can find us
Ever present future to remind us
A perfect place to leave the past behind us

Sunrise

Travelling through a lonesome night
Heading home into your light
I'll be rolling in your arms by daybreak
You can share a dream with me
Until we wake up from our sleep
The world will turn towards tomorrow
Sunrise sunrise
Smiling on the mountains and the sea
Sunrise sunrise
The way you smile on me
We know the dawn will come on soon
Larks will sing their ancient tune
I'll take your hand We'll walk out in the morning
In the moment you and I
Underneath a timeless sky
We will love the sun because it's shining
Sunrise sunrise
Smiling on the mountains and the sea
Sunrise sunrise
The way you smile on me
Sunrise sunrise
Smiling on the mountains and the sea
Sunrise sunrise
The way you smile on me
Sunrise sunrise
Smiling on the mountains and the sea
Sunrise sunrise
The way you smile on me

Common Fire
03:32
|
|||
Across the frontier of a northern country
Past the region of the standing stones
Past the farmland and the mountain valleys
To where the dark eyed maiden waits alone
Her heart stands on a promise given
On a day not so long ago
Her mind turns to its own survival
Homeward in the snow
Six tonged fire from a burning reef
And the sounds of war and the smell of grief
He stands on deck and he thinks of her
And the world recedes and his senses blur
A common tale, so history tells us
We're all the same once we're on the shelves
A common picture of our hearts desires
A common portrait of our common fire
Fickle winds of change may roll the sea of life
But we ride the waves through the toil and strife
We fight the fear and ease the pain
And in the end hope to remain

May the angels hold you tight
As your soul keeps shining bright
And your heart keeps beat forever and for all time
May the world pay due respect
To a man in retrospect
And his light shines so far away for all time
In my time to know you
Was to love you
Thank you for being my friend
May your footsteps all remain
As we sing this sad refrain
There were precious few I knew like you for all time
May you rest in peace my friend
Never easy at the end
But your love is spread and your word is read for all time
In my time to know you
Was to love you
Thank you for being my friend
May the angels hold you tight
As your soul keeps shining bright
And your heart keeps beat forever and for all time
In my time to know you
Was to love you
Thank you for being my friend
