You Light Up My Life



So many nights,

I'd sit by my window,

Waiting for someone to sing me his song.

So many dreams,

I kept deep inside me,

Alone in the dark, but now you've come along.



And you light up my life,

You give me hope, to carry on.

You light up my days

And fill my nights with song.



Rollin' at sea, adrift on the waters

Could it be finally,

I'm turning for home

Finally a chance to say, "Hey, I Love You"

Never again to be all alone.



And you light up my life,

You give me hope, to carry on.

You light up my days

And fill my nights with song.



You, You light up my life

You give me hope to carry on

You light up my days

And fill my nights with song

It can't be wrong, when it feels so right

'Cause you, you light up my life

I Know Who Holds Tomorrow



I don't know about tomorrow,

I just live from day to day.

And I don't borrow from the sunshine

'Cause the skies might turn to grey.



And I don't worry about the future,

'Cause I know what Jesus said,

And today I'm gonna walk right beside him

'Cause he's the one who knows what is ahead.



There are things about tomorrow

That I don't seem to understand

But I know who holds tomorrow

And I know who holds my hand.



And each step is getting brighter

As the golden stairs I climb.

And every burden is getting lighter

And all the clouds, their silver line.



And, I'll bet the sun it's always shining

And no tears will ever dim the eye

And the ending of the rainbow

Where the mountains, they touch the sky.



There are many things about tomorrow

I don't seem to understand

But I know who holds tomorrow

And I know who holds my hand.

Yes I know who holds my hand.

On The Side Angels



I've never been so certain,

I've never been sure.

We're on the side of angels,

If we believe this love is pure.



Is it so hard to trust it,

'Cause we've been wrong before?

There comes a time in every life,

We find the heart we're waiting for.



After all the might-have-beens,

The close and distant calls

After all the try-agains,

Don't be afraid to fall

We're on the side of angels after all.



Every time you touch me,

Don't you feel it too?

The gentle hand that's guiding us

You to me, me to you



After all the might-have-beens,

The close and distant calls

After all the try-agains,

Don't be afraid to fall

We're on the side of angels after all.



Heaven only knows

Why this took so long

But only Heaven knows

A love is right or wrong



After all the might-have-beens,

The close and distant calls

After all the try-agains,

Don't be afraid to fall

We're on the side of angels,

On the side of angels,

On the side of angels, after all.

Clinging To A Saving Hand



Sing me a song of praise and glory

Help this wandering child to understand.

That when I close my eyes in sleep eternal

I'll be clinging to a saving hand.



I want you to sing to me about the rock of ages,

And sing about eternity so sweet.

So that when I take my last breath of life

I'll awaken at my saviour's feet.



I want you to tell me about Paul and Matthew

And sing about my dear saviour's birth

And tell about his trials and tribulations.

While he walked upon his heathen Earth.



Come on and sing me a song of praise and glory

Help this wandering child to understand.

That when I close my eyes in sleep eternal

I'll be clinging to a saving hand.

I'll be clinging to a saving hand.

Ten Thousand Angels Cried



Stillness filled the Heavens, on crucifixion day.

Some say it rained, I don't know if it's true.

Well, I can just imagine ten thousand angels cried

That would seem like rain to me and you.



The angels all stood ready to take Him from the tree

They waited for the words from His voice.

And when he asked the father why has thou forsaken me.

They watched the saviour die of his own choice.



I've never seen ten thousand angels cry

But I'm sure they did

As they stood by

And watched the saviour die.



God turned his head away

He couldn't bear the sight

It must have looked like rain

When ten thousand angels cried.



As the sun slipped away

The skies turned to grey

And when Jesus gave his all

That's when the tears began to fall



I've never seen ten thousand angels cry

But I'm sure they did

As they stood by

And watched the saviour die.



God turned his head away

He couldn't bear the sight

It must have looked like rain

When ten thousand angels cried.



It must have looked like rain

When ten thousand angels cried.

LET THE TRAIN BLOW THE WHISTLE
I don't want no aggravation When my train has left the station If you're there or not, I may not even know Have a round and remember Things we did that weren't so tender Let the train blow the whistle when I go

On my guitar sell tickets So someone can finally pick it And tell the girls down at the Ritz I said hello Tell the gossipers and liars I will see them in the fire Let the train blow the whistle when I go

Let her blow, let her blow Long and loud and hard and happy Let her blow No regrets, all my debts will be paid When I get laid Let her blow, let her blow, let her blow

You'll be left without excuses For the evils and abuses Down to today from years and years ago And have yourself another toke From my basket full of smoke And let the train blow the whistle when I go

Let her blow, let her blow Long and loud and hard and happy Let her blow No regrets, all my debts will be paid When I get laid Let her blow, let her blow, let her blow

DOWN THERE BY THE TRAIN
There's a place I know where the train goes slow Where the sinner can be washed in the blood of the lamb There's a river by the trestle down by sinner's grove Down where the willow and the dogwood grow

You can hear the whistle, you can hear the bell From the halls of heaven to the gates of hell And there's room for the forsaken if you're there on time You'll be washed of all your sins and all of your crimes If you're down there by the train Down there by the train Down there by the train Down there by the train Down there where the train goes slow

There's a golden moon that shines up through the mist And I know that your name can be on that list There's no eye for an eye, there's no tooth for a tooth I saw Judas Iscariot carrying John Wilkes Booth He was down there by the train Down there by the train Down there by the train Down there by the train He was down there where the train goes slow

If you've lost all your hope, if you've lost all your faith I know you can be cared for and I know you can be safe And all the shamefuls and all of the whores And even the soldier who pierced the side of the Lord Is down there by the train Down there by the train Down there by the train Down there by the train Down there where the train goes slow

Well, I've never asked forgiveness and I've never said a prayer Never given of myself, never truly cared I've left the ones who loved me and I'm still raising Cain I've taken the low road and if you've done the same Meet me down there by the train Down there by the train Down there by the train Down there by the train Down there where the train goes slow

Meet me down there by the train Down there by the train Down there by the train Down there by the train Down there where the train goes slow

BIRD ON A WIRE
Like a bird on a wire Like a drunk in a midnight choir I have tried in my way to be free Like a fish on a hook Like a knight from an old fashioned book I have saved all my ribbons with thee

And if I have been unkind I hope that you will just let it go by And if I have been untrue I hope you know it was never to you

Like a baby stillborn Like a beast with his horn I have torn everyone who reached out for me

But I swear by this song By all I have done wrong I'll make it all up to you

I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch He called out to me "Don't ask for so much" And a young man leaning on his darkened door He cried out to me "Hey, why not ask for more"

Like a bird on a wire Like a drunk in a midnight choir I have tried in my way to be free

THE MAN WHO COULDN'T CRY
There once was a man who just couldn't cry He hadn't cried for years and for years Napalmed babies and the movie love story For instance could not produce tears As a child he had cried as all children will Then at some point his tear ducts ran dry He grew to be a man, the feces hit the fan Things got bad, but he couldn't cry

His dog was run over, his wife up and left him And after that he got sacked from his job Lost his arm in the war, was laughed at by a whore Ah, but sill not a sniffle or sob

His novel was refused, his movie was panned And his big Broadway show was a flop

He got sent off to jail; you guessed it, no bail Oh, but still not a dribble or drop

In jail he was beaten, bullied and buggered And made to make license plates Water and bread was all he was fed But not once did a tear stain his face

Doctors were called in, scientists, too Theologians were last and practically least

They all agreed sure enough; this was sure no cream puff But in fact an insensitive beast

He was removed from jail and placed in a place For the insensitive and the insane He played lots of chess and made lots of friends And he wept every time it would rain

Once it rained forty days and it rained forty nights And he cried and he cried and he cried and he cried

On the forty-first day, he passed away He just dehydrated and died

Well, he went up to heaven, located his dog Not only that, but he rejoined his arm Down below, all the critics, they loot it all back Cancer robbed the whore of her charm

His ex-wife died of stretch marks, his ex-employer went broke The theologians were finally found out

Right down to the ground, that old jail house burned down The earth suffered perpetual drought

"What's In It For Me"



Thought we had a good thing baby
You pulled the wool over my eyes
Should've seen it coming baby
Now all I see is a cool love dying
Honey I don't want to hold you down
Why you gotta own the lock and the key
Oh tell me baby
Good things just don't come around
And you can't have them for free
No not me
You've been a river of give
And an ocean of take
Darlin' for heaven's sake

You've got me up and down and in between
Acting nice then being real mean
Hey
Well you hold me tight then you turn your back
Who could deal with that
You say you want to work it out, boy
Tell me what's in it for me

You're living in your own world
You act like I'm just passing through
Oh yeah
Don't you want to be happy
Don't you know how good I could be
Seems everybody's telling you something
That they know you just want to hear
Oh but you ain't gonna hear it from me
You've been a valley of love
And a mountain of need
Baby, it's time you see

You've got me up and down and in between
Acting nice then being real mean
Hey
Well you hold me tight then you turn your back
Who could deal with that
You say you want to work it out, boy
Tell me what's in it for me

Up and down and in between
Acting nice then being real mean
Well you hold me tight then you turn your back
Who could deal with that
You say you want to work it out boy
Tell me what's in it for me

You've been a river of give and a mountain of take
Darlin’ for Heaven's sake

You've got me up and down and in between
Acting nice then being real mean
Hey
Well you hold me tight then you turn your back
Who could deal with that
You say you want to work it out, boy
Tell me what's in it for me

Up and down and in between
Acting nice then being real mean
Hey
Well you hold me tight then you turn your back
Who could deal with that
You say you want to work it out boy
Tell me what's in it for me
Oh, in it for me
What's in it for me
What's in it for me

I Got My Baby"



Diggin’ around
Feelin’ so down
Floatin’ around like a feather
Nothin’ but me
And all of my dreams
Trying to hold it together
Those were long days
Long days indeed
Could not avoid
I felt no joy
No relief

Everyone knows when that's how it goes it's usually bound to get better
So when you arrived
I looked in your eyes and all I could see was forever
What a fine day
A fine day indeed
When you showed up I fell in love now look at me

I got my baby
I got those good times
Don't lack no sunshine
Baby I got you

Darlin' I find you're blowin' my mind every time that I hold you
Better than gold the deeper we go nobody knows it like I do
These are sweet days
Sweet days indeed
A love that flows will always grow
Now can't you see

I got my baby
I got those good times
Don't lack no sunshine
Baby I got you

Red hot and no blues
Got no more bad news
I got my baby
Baby, I got you

And on and on
Oh what a love affair
And on and on
Oh, I will always be there
Yeah
Oh baby

I got my baby
I got those good times
Don't lack no sunshine
Baby I got you

Red hot and no blues
Got no more bad news
I got my baby
Baby, I got you

I got my baby
I got those good times
Don't lack no sunshine
Baby I got you

Yes, I do
Red hot and no blues
Got no more bad news
