When you’ve seen beyond yourself,
Then you may find peace of mind is waiting there,
And the time will come when you see we’re all one,
And life flows on within you and without you.
I understand about indecision
But I don’t care if I get behind
People livin’ in competition
All I want is to have my peace of mind, yeah, whoa
Oh, my own life
Is all I can hope to control.
Oh, let my life,
Be lived for the good,
Good of my soul.
Let it bring peace,
Sweet peace,
Peace will come,
And let it begin with me.
I’ve seen You in our home fires burning with a quiet light
You are mothering and feeding in the wee hours of the night
Your gentle love is patient, You will never fade or tire
Your peace will make us one
And even as I wander, I’m keeping you in sight
You’re a candle in the window on a cold, dark winter’s night
And I’m getting closer than I ever thought I might
And I can’t fight this feeling anymore
I’ve forgotten what I started fighting for
It’s time to bring this ship into the shore
And throw away the oars, forever
I’ll be your candle on the water
'Till every wave is warm and bright
My soul is there beside you
Let this candle guide you
Soon you’ll see a golden stream of light
And it seems to me you lived your life,
Like a candle in the wind.
Never knowing who to cling to,
When the rain set in.
And I would have liked to have known you,
But I was just a kid.
Your candle burned out long before,
Your legend ever did.
Light one candle for the Maccabee children
With thanks that their light didn’t die
Light one candle for the pain they endured
When their right to exist was denied
Light one candle for the terrible sacrifice
Justice and freedom demand
But light one candle for the wisdom to know
When the peacemaker’s time is at hand
Bless the beasts and the children,
For in this world they have no voice,
They have no choice.
Bless the beasts and the children,
For the world can never be,
The world they see.
Light their way
When the darkness surrounds them;
Give them love, let it shine all around them.
Bless the beasts and the children;
Give them shelter from a storm;
Keep them safe;
Keep them warm.
Mama may have
Papa may have
But god bless the child that’s got his own
Papa don’t preach I’m in trouble deep
Papa don’t preach, I’ve been losing sleep
But I made up my mind, I’m keeping my baby, hm
I’m gonna keep my baby, hm
Teenage girl, much too young
Unprepared for what’s to come
A baby changes everything
Not a ring
On her hand
All her dreams and all her plans
A baby changes everything
Then I got Mary pregnant
And, man, that was all she wrote.
And for my nineteenth birthday I got a union card and a wedding coat.
We went down to the courthouse
And the judge put it all to rest.
No wedding day smiles, no walk down the aisle,
No flowers, no wedding dress.
No April rain,
No flowers bloom,
No wedding Saturday within the month of June,
But what it is, is something true,
Made up of these three words that I must say to you:
I just called to say I love you…
You ask me how much I need you, must I explain?
I need you, oh my darling, like roses need rain
You ask how long I’ll love you, I’ll tell you true
Until the Twelfth of Never, I’ll still be loving you
Hold me close, never let me go
Hold me close, melt my heart like April snow
I’ll love you 'til the bluebells forget to bloom
I’ll love you 'til the clover has lost its perfume
I’ll love you 'til the poets run out of rhyme
Until the Twelfth of Never and that’s a long, long time
Until the Twelfth of Never and that’s a long, long time
A long long time ago
I can still remember how the music used to make me smile
I knew if I had my chance
I could make those people dance
And maybe they’d be happy for awhile…
All you fellas who have someone and you really care, yeah, yeah
Then it’s all of you fellas who better beware, yeah, yeah
Somebody’s out to get your lady
A few of your buddies, they sure look shady
Blades are long, clenched tight in their fist
Aimin’ straight at your back
And I don’t think they’ll miss
(What they do?)
(They smilin’ in your face)
All the time, they want to take your place
The back stabbers (Back stabbers)
One way or another, I’m gonna find ya
I’m gonna get ya, get ya, get ya, get ya
One way or another, I’m gonna win ya
I’m gonna get ya, get ya ,get ya, get ya
One way or another, I’m gonna see ya
I’m gonna meet ya, meet ya, meet ya, meet ya
One day, maybe next week, I’m gonna meet ya
I’m gonna meet ya, I’ll meet ya…
If you want it
Here it is
Come and get it
But you better hurry cause its going fast
He had a nasty reputation as a cruel dude
They said he was ruthless said he was crude
They had one thing in common: they were good in bed
She’d say, "Faster, faster “The lights are turning red”
Life in the fast lane
Surely make you lose your mind
Life in the fast lane, yeah
