How Did I Fall In Love With You

BRIAN: Remember when we never needed each other
The best of friends like sister and brother
We understood we'd never be alone

HOWIE: Those days are gone now I want you so much
The night is long and I need your touch
Don't know what to say never meant to feel this way-ay
Don't wanna be alone tonight

ALL: What can I do [HOWIE:] to make you mine
ALL: Fallin' so hard so fast this time
What did I say what did you do
How did I fall in love with you

Brings back the child that I resemble

It's True

PLEASE NOTE: for this song "ALL (lead changing intermittently)" means that everyone is singing, but in every part of the line there is one person with a stronger part than another, but this part changes almost every syllable, and it would be impractical to detail this.

[Piano intro]

BRIAN: Even the lover makes a mistake sometimes
Like any other
Fall out and lose his mind
And I'm sorry [AJ echo:] sorry sorry [BRIAN:] for the things I did
BRIAN: For your teardrops over words I said
Can you forgive me and open
Your heart once again, oh yeah

ALL (echoing) (lead changing intermittently): It's true [Echoes twice]
I mean it
From the bottom of my hea-eart
Yeah, it's true
Without you I would fa-a-all apart
BRIAN: Yeah baby

AJ: Whatever happened
I know that I was wro-ong, oh ye-e-es
Can you believe me
Maybe your faith is go-o-one
Oh yes it is
AJ and NICK: But I love you [NICK:] and I always will
NICK: So I wonder if you want me still
NICK lead with ALL: Can you forgive me [NICK:] and open
NICK: Your heart once [NICK lead with ALL:] agai-ai-ain, [NICK:] oh yeah-ah-ah-ah-ah

NICK lead with ALL: It's true
AJ lead with ALL: (yes it's true)

BRIAN: It's true
ALL (lead changing intermittently): Without you I would fa-a-all apart
NICK: Ooh ooh ooh ooh

BRIAN: I'd do anything to ma-ake it up to you [echoes twice]
So please understand [ALL echo:] please understa-a-and
BRIAN: And open your heart once agai-ai-ain

ALL (lead changing intermittently): It's true [echoes once]
NICK (through next two lines): Ho-oh-oh-oh

From the bottom of my hea-eart

Don't you see it's now or never
'Cause I just can't be frie-ends

Ooh, la da da da ha-ta-da
Ooh, la da da da ha-ta-da
Ooh, la da da da ha-ta-da

To be happy, you are all I need to make me happy
'Cause every time you're near all the tears inside are raindrops
All the sadness in my lifetime goes away
Just believe in me, all I need is someone who believes in me
You're the good-luck charm, you're the reason for the rainbows
God knows I'd hate to see you go away
Baby don't leave me this way

(If you stay) If you stay I'll give you what you want
(I'll show you) I'll show you I'm the only one for you
(If you stay) If you stay with me I'll show you how much I need you
Oh how much I need you

To be with you, I just wanna constantly be with you
'Cause only when you're around all my problems aren't my problems
All the clouds inside my garden float away
Baby, you know

(If you stay) If you stay I'll give you what you want
(I'll show you) I'll show you I'm the only one for you
(If you stay) If you stay with me I'll show you how much I need you
Oh how much I need you

Oh forever, you have all my gratitude forever
For being who you are brings me victory I promise
My frustrations and my losses fly high away
They fly high

(If you stay) Stay baby, stay baby
(La-da-ta, da-ta-da-ta, i-i-ya)
(I'll show you) Anything you want
I'll show you how much I need (if you stay)

Children Need A Helping Hand

Children need a helping hand
Children need a promised land
Let the children feel again
That love is alive
Children need a helping hand
Children are so innocent
Make this world a wonderland
So give us a sign
So give us a sign

Children have a heart of gold
Sometimes they feel alone and sold
They need someone to be around
To reach out, a helping hand
Many children don't know what to do
There's no one there to guide them through
We are living in a world so cold
It makes them sad and sold
They need a helping hand

Children need a helping hand
Children need a promised land
Let the children feel again
That love is alive (that love is alive)
Children need a helping hand (day by day)
Children are so innocent (show them the way)
Make this world a wonderland (join us and sing)
So give us a sign
So give us a sign

[Spoken:]
Children need a helping hand
We all are called to change
Into a world of hope
Without war and without pain

[Sung:]
Children do have fantasies
The thought of far away and free
Dreaming of a wonderland
They live in a children's world
We could live in perfect harmony
Wonderland could be reality
Without war and without pain
And no one'd die in vain
That's the promised land

Children need a helping hand
Children need a promised land
Let the children feel again
That love is alive (that love is alive)
Children need a helping hand (day by day)
Children are so innocent (show them the way)
Make this world a wonderland (join us and sing)
So give us a sign
So give us a sign

[Rap:]
Children want to find their own way
Getting stronger day by day
Children have a heart and soul
Don't let them live without a goal
Children make the world go round
Don't destroy want they have found
Set an example be consequent
Be confident with a helping hand

[Sung:]
Children need a helping hand (they need a helping hand)
Children need a promised land (show them the way)
Let the children feel again (feel again)
That love is alive
Children need a helping hand
Children are so innocent
Make this world a wonderland
So give us a sign
So give us a sign
