Silence, long lost friend. You've come to me again. Night comes closing in. And the loneliness within. . I'm older, should be wiser. Still I never seem to learn.
[originally performed by Paul Young]. . Baby, if we cant solve any problems. Why do we lose so many tears?. Oh, so you go again. When the leading man appears.
The Mississippi River, he's a friend of mine. And the people livin' in this town, they can be so fine. There's a big line runnin' straight down old Union Avenue.
I feel like I never measure up to who you see. Sometimes I think I can't give you all the love you need. You keep changing everyday. Amazing me in every way.
There came a time when I realized. My life was not my own. God above placed a seed of faith in me. That grew into a world I never known. . A kind of love my heart was never shown.
Get out of my dreams there's no room left. Get out of my bed. We did goodbye yesterday. Don't you think I heard what you said?. . You want too much. You play too hard.
We do a pretty good job of throwing sticks and stones. But everyone's got a closet full of skeleton bones. No need to tear each other down. 'Cause we're all standing here on common ground.
Look into my eyes and you will see. What you mean to me. Search your heart, search your soul. And when you find me there you'll search no more. . Can't tell me it's not worth tryin' for.
You've been hurt before, lost many wars. And you realize the danger you're in without Him in your heart. To make a new start, you're taking a chance you'll get hurt again.
Hearts gone astray. Leave me hurt when they go. I went away. Just when you needed me so. . Filled with regret. I come back begging you. Forgive, forget.
I was a pilgrim on a journey. Through a desert, cruel and unjust. I was lost and I was thirsty. And there where no signs I could trust. . Just when I started to falter.
Every night I hope and pray. A dream lover will come my way. A girl to hold in my arms. And know the magic of her charms. Because I want a girl to call my own.
I was lost in indecision. In the corridors of purpose. Looking for a sign. . The most human of conditions. Always asking, never knowing. Searching this heart of mine.
Don't get so busy that you miss. Giving just a little kiss. To the ones you love. And don't even wait a little while. To give them just a little smile.
You say, you fell out of love with no place to stand. You say, your heart's on the mend from a broken romance. You say, you don't want to trust because it hurts too much.
I can't light no more of your darkness. All my pictures seem to fade to black and white. I'm growin' tired and time stands still before me. Frozen here on the ladder of my life.
Many men will drink the rain and turn and thank the clouds. Many men will hear you speak, then will never turn around. . But I will not forget you. You are my god, my king.
I was alright for a while. I could smile for a while. But I saw you last night. You held my hand so tight. As you stopped to say hello. . You wished me well.
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire. Jack Frost nipping at your nose. Yuletide carols being sung by a choir. And folks dressed up like Eskimos. . Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe.
The twelve of you walked on the earth together. The Father was a brother to you all. The teaching that you heard was the Living Word. The wonders and the miracles you saw.
