Wish You Were Here
-------------------------------
They kissed goodbye at the terminal gate
She said you're gonna be late if you don't go
He held her tight, said I'll be alright
I'll call you tonight to let you know
He bought a postcard, on the front it just said HEAVEN
With a picture of the ocean and the beach
And the simple words he wrote her
Said he loved her and they told her
How he'd hold her if his arms would reach
Wish you were here, wish you could see this place
Wish you were near, wish I could touch your face
The weather's nice, it's paradise
It's summertime all year and there's some folks we know
They say, "Hello, I miss you so, wish you were here"
She got a call that night but it wasn't from him
It didn't sink in right away, Ma'am the plane went down
Our crews have searched the ground
No survivors found she heard him say
But somehow she got a postcard in the mail
That just said HEAVEN with a picture of the ocean and the beach
And the simple words he wrote her
Said he loves her and they told her
How he'd hold her if his arms would reach
Wish you were here, wish you could see this place
Wish you were near, wish I could touch your face
The weather's nice, it's paradise
It's summertime all year, and there's some folks we know
They say "Hello, I miss you so, wish you were here"
The weather's nice, in paradise
It's summertime all year and all the folks we know
They say "Hello, I miss you so, wish you were here"
Wish you were here
She's In Love
---------------------
Third of June she said goodbye
I watched her walk into the night
The hardest thing I ever did was let her go
We swore as friends we'd stay in touch
Best of friends don't mean that much
When the phone call comes to tell you
She's in love
She's in love
She's got that fire in her eyes
She's in love
How her smile lights up the sky
It's like she's walking on air
She's been set free
I still can't believe
She's in love
Strolling down a one-way street
She's in love
You'd swear her heart has wings
She's in love
Why can't it be me
Told everyone I'm doing fine
Learned to get on with my life
I just want what's best for her
So I lied
Found a note on my door last night
Said, "I'll be your friend 'til the day I die"
But you should know I found someone
Now she's in love
She's in love
She's got that fire in her eyes
She's in love
How her smile lights up the sky
It's like she's walking on air
She's been set free
Still I can't believe
She's in love
Strolling down a one-way street
She's in love
You'd swear her heart has wings
She's in love
Why can't it be me
She's in love
She's got that fire in her eyes
She's in love
How her smile lights up the sky
It's like she's walking on air
She's been set free
Still I can't believe
She's in love
Strolling down a one-way street
She's in love
You'd swear her heart has wings
She's in love
Why can't it be me
Oh, now she's in love
Why can't it be me
She's in love
She's in love
She's in love
She's in love
Love Is Alive
-------------------
Steam on the window, the moon is bright
We're just two people holdin' on tight
The night is young and this feeling is strong
The smile on your face said it all...
Love is alive and well tonight
Taking control like a raging fire
Burning it's way from your heart to mine
Love is alive
This world is empty and cold at times
But here in your arms I am warm inside
Beyond any feeling I felt or believed
Bring on tomorrow, I can face anything
Love is alive and well tonight
Taking control like a raging fire
Burning it's way from your heart to mine
Love is alive
Passion and kisses, and fevered desires
Constantly needing this feeling of ours
Love is alive and well tonight
Taking control like a raging fire
Burning it's way from your heart to mine
Love is alive
Out of control like a raging fire
Burning it's way from your heart to mine
Love is alive
Love is alive
Don't Laugh At Me
-----------------------------
I'm a little boy with glasses
The one they call the geek
I'm a little girl who never smiles
'Cause I've got braces on my teeth
And I know how it feels
To cry myself to sleep
I'm that kid on every playground
Who's always chosen last
A single teenage mother
Tryin' to overcome my past
You don't have to be my friend
But is it too much to ask...
Don't laugh at me
Don't call me names
Don't get your pleasure from my pain
In God's eyes we're all the same
Someday we'll all have perfect wings
Don't laugh at me
I'm the cripple on the corner
You've passed me on the street
And I wouldn't be out here beggin'
If I had enough to eat
And don't think that I don't notice
That our eyes never meet
I lost my wife and little boy
When someone crossed that yellow line
The day we laid them in the ground
Was the day I lost my mind
And right now I'm down to holdin
This little cardboard sign...So
Don't laugh at me
Don't call me names
Don't get your pleasure from my pain
In God's eyes we're all the same
Some day we'll all have perfect wings
Don't laugh at me
I'm fat, I'm thin, I'm short, I'm tall
I'm deaf, I'm blind, hey aren't we all...
Don't laugh at me
Don't call me names
Don't get your pleasure from my pain
In God's eyes we're all the same
Don't laugh at me
I Do (Cherish You)
-------------------------
All I am, all I'll be
Everything in this world
All that I'll ever need
Is in your eyes shinin' at me
When you smile I can feel
All my passion unfolding
Your hand brushes mine
And a thousand sensations seduce me cause I....
I do, cherish you
For the rest of my life
I don't have to think twice
I will, love you still
From the depths of my soul
It's beyond my control
I've waited so long to say this to you
If you're asking do I love you this much
I do
In my world before you
I lived outside my emotions
Didn't know where I was goin'
Till that day I found you
How you opened my life
To a new paradise
In a world torn by change
Still with all my heart till my dying day
I do, cherish you
For the rest of my life
You don't have to think twice
I will, love you still
From the depths of my soul
It's beyond my control
I've waited so long to say this to you
If you're asking do I love you this much
Yes, I do
If you're asking do I love you this much
I do
Oh, I do
The Perfect Conversation
--------------------------------------
In the perfect conversation we're standing at the station
And you're begging me, "please don't go"
You say, "the only thing that matters in this world
Is that we need each other so"
In the perfect conversation without any hesitation
I tell you, I was wrong
I say, "girl, you know sometimes my faith is weak
And my pride is much too strong"
In this perfect conversation here in my imagination
Somehow I know just when to say what's right
And I know just what I'm losing
Before this train I'm on starts moving
And I'm running though the door to hold you tight
Oh the perfect conversation always ends
Before we say goodbye
All that I can hear now, so loud and so clear now
Are the words I could not seem to find
Everything I didn't say keeps coming back
A mile at a time
In this perfect conversation here in my imagination
Somehow I know just when to say what's right
And I know I'll never leave you
'Cause I know how much I need you
And I tell you that I love you just in time
Oh the perfect conversation always ends
Before we say goodbye
Oh the perfect conversation always ends
Before we say goodbye
Because I Love You
------------------------------
Because I love you
That's the reason why
'Cause I love you
I'll reach up to the sky
Pull down a fairytale, a wishing well, a magic spell
And give them all to you
Because I love you
All I ever think about's when
When I can touch you
'Cause I can't live without
Your little sweet surprise, your hazel eyes, I'm hypnotized
And there's nothing I can do
Because I love you
I'll always be honestly, willingly, faithful and true
Because I love you
I'm hopelessly, endlessly
Yours, heart and soulfully
And I devotedly
Do it, 'cause I do it, 'cause I do it, 'cause I
Do it, 'cause I love you
Because I need you
Say you'll never go away
Because I want you
Every night and every day
Your little mystery, keeps kissing me, I'm history
And there's nothing I can do
Because I love you
I'll always be honestly, willingly, faithful and true
Because I love you
I'm hopelessly, endlessly
Yours, heart and soulfully
And I devotedly
Do it, 'cause I do it, 'cause I do it, 'cause I
Do it, 'cause I love you
Because I love you
I'll always be honestly, willingly, faithful and true
Because I love you
I'm hopelessly, endlessly
Yours, heart and soulfully
And I devotedly
Do it, 'cause I do it, 'cause I do it, 'cause I
Do it, 'cause I
Because I love you
I'll always be honestly, willingly, faithful and true
Because I love you
I'm hopelessly, endlessly
Yours, heart and soulfully
And I devotedly
Do it, 'cause I do it, 'cause I do it, 'cause
'Cause I love you
'Cause I love you
Permanently
----------------------
I've got you under my skin
I feel you coursing through my veins
I don't know where to begin
To talk about somethin'
That's never gonna change
I don't have to tell my body to breathe
And I don't know how to tell you how much I believe that
You're a part of every heartbeat that keeps me alive
You're the best of the best of every dream in my life
I'll need you with me
Permanently
We ride this river of time
So many people drift away
But once in forever we find
A rock of all ages and a love that remains
And for me you are the one
My never-ending story has begun
You're a part of every heartbeat that keeps me alive
You're the best of the best of every dream in my life
I'll need you with me
Permanently
You're a part of every heartbeat that keeps me alive
You're the best of the best of every dream in my life
I'll need you with me
Permanently
You're a part of every heartbeat that keeps me alive
You're the best of the best of every dream in my life
I'll need you with me
Permanently
Permanently
Permanently
Almost Doesn't Count
---------------------------------
Almost made you love me
Almost made you cry
Almost made you happy baby
Didn't I didn't I
You almost had me thinkin'
You turned around
Everybody knows
Almost doesn't count
Almost heard you saying
You were finally free
What was always missing for you baby
You'd found it in me
But you can't get to heaven
Half off the ground
Everybody knows
Almost doesn't count
I can't keep lovin' you
One foot outside the door
I hear a funny hesitation
Of a heart that's never really sure
Can't keep on tryin'
If you're looking for more
Than all that I could give you
Than what you came here for
Gotta find somebody
Not afraid to let go
Want a no-doubt to be-there kind of girl
You came real close
But every time you built me up
You only let me down
And everybody knows
Almost doesn't count
I can't keep lovin' you
One foot outside the door
I hear a funny hesitation
Of a heart that's never really sure
Can't keep on tryin'
If you're looking for more
Than all that I could give you
Than what you came here for
Maybe you'll be sorry
Maybe you'll be cold
Maybe you'll come runnin' back
From the cruel cruel world
You almost convince me
You're gonna stick around
But everybody knows
Almost doesn't count
Maybe I'll be here
Maybe I'll see ya 'round
That's the way it goes
Almost doesn't count
Back At One
---------------------
It's undeniable, that we should be together
It's unbelievable, how I used to say that I'd fall never
The basis you need to know you know just how I feel
And let me show you now that I'm for real
If all things in time time will reveal
One: you're like a dream come true
Two: just wanna be with you
Three: girl it's plain to see that you're the only one for me and
Four: repeat steps 1 through 3
Five: make you fall in love with me
If ever I believe my work is done
Then I start back at one
It's so incredible the way things work themselves out
And unemotional once you know what it's all about
And undesirable for us to be apart
I never would have made it very far
'Cause you know you hold the keys to my heart 'cause
One: you're like a dream come true
Two: just wanna be with you
Three: girl it's plain to see that you're the only one for me and
Four: repeat steps 1 through 3
Five: make you fall in love with me
If ever I believe my work is done
Then I start back at one
Say farewell to the darkened night
I see the coming of the sun
I feel like a little child whose life has just begun
You came and breathed new life
Into this lonely heart of mine
You threw out the lifeline just in the nick of time
One: you're like a dream come true
Two: just wanna be with you
Three: girl it's plain to see that you're the only one for me and
Four: repeat steps 1 through 3
Five: make you fall in love with me
If ever I believe my work is done
Then I start back at
One: you're like a dream come true
Two: just wanna be with you
Three: girl it's plain to see that you're the only one for me and
Four: repeat steps 1 through 3
Five: make you fall in love with me
If ever I believe my work is done
Then I start back at one....
