Be Strong Now

And if she'd only say what's wrong
She can't go on

You've got to be strong now
And if I come and hold you now
You'll be safe and sound

Make a lonely face
That no one ever sees
You see the things she believes
Since life is bittersweet and
She'd open up to me
And it's the only thing she dreams
You've gotta believe

You've got to be strong now
And if I come and hold you now
You've got to be strong now
If I hold you now

Ooh God, if I could change a thing tonight
We won't be lonely
Ooh God, If I could change a thing
What does it have to be this
You have to be strong now
And if I come and hold you now
You've got to be strong now
If I hold you now

Sound of Love

The sound of love is oceans far away
And I can love and I can check your fate
The sound that beckons me is from your heart
And I can't begin to say
Cause I don't really know just where I've been
And every desire my heart gets in

Your love, it takes a little faith
And I know I have to wait my own good time, yes
Your love, I know I can't escape it
And I know that we can make it all work out

I found you lost and longing a jumbled past
Oh let's begin again
For she's not gonna last before the day is done
Every desire under the sun

Your love, it takes a little faith
And I know I have to wait my own good time, yes
Your love, I know I can't escape it
And I know that we can make it all work out

In the daylight love seems to come and go, oh
No more indecision and no more heartfelt division
I've seen a vison, oh

The sound of love is passing the city's decay
And people always searching a lonely disease
And overrunning
Run right to the faith
I swear that this love is strong
It's gonna carry me
And know that this dream and every desire

Your love, it takes a little faith
And I know I have to wait my own good time, yes
Your love, I know I can't escape it
And I know that we can make it all work out
I
No more indecision and no more heartfelt division
I've seen a vision, oh

Beauty

In a minute, dear
Love holds seconds
It'll come clear
Do you see pity
Do you see love
Ride away, dear love
Dash away
No-one hears you call
Do you see pity
Do you see love

In the morning light you lay by my side
In the evening your love begins to shine
World is changing but my love won't lame
Do you see clearly
Do you see love
Do you see anything at all

And there's that never comes back down
And it feels like something's gonna happen now
World is changing but my love won't lame
Do you see beauty
Do you see love
Do you see anything at all

In a minute, dear
Love holds second
It'll come clear
Do you see pity
Do you see love
Ride away, dear
Now dash away
No-one hears you call
Do you see clearly
Do you see love
It calls your name
No matter how you try
And I can't recall
A time when I didn't love you

Do you see clearly
Do you see love
Do you see anything at all
And all this time we waste
Precious time we waste
I get through
Do you see clearly
Do you see love
Do you see anything at all
And all this time we waste
Precious time we waste
I can't take it anymore
Love love love
Love is what you need
And love is what you need
Ooh

See The Sun

I come back to me, darling
I'll say your heart is free
To be with someone else
Who loves and cares and talks to you
It's me
And when you want to stay
Do stay
And if you're undecided
You know there's no denying
Our love to you
I'll be around to run to you
It's me

See the sun
And what you can't learn
And everyone who
See the sun
And what you can't learn
Feel the warmth love gives
To everyone and everything
I know you feel the same

I know it's the hardest to do
I know and if you're gone
Well I'll come and find you
I know that in a day or two
When things are quiet over you
There's no wrong and on

See the sun
And what you can't learn
And everyone who
See the sun
And what you can't learn
Feel the warmth love gives
To everyone and everything
I know you feel the same

I told you I told you
That when we feel apart
I wrote you I wrote you
A next you'll fall apart
Of you
Don't deny it
Feel the warmth love gives
See the sun
And what you can't learn
Feel the warmth love gives

Country Girl

Hallelujah
I'm in love with
A girl from the country
She's got no money
It's the smile
I'm in love with
And ooh

We go running
I don't care where to
Till the morning
It's a part of you that never
Dies
I'm in love with
And ooh
I give you everything you'll ever need
It all comes down to that smile
A country mile
An angel child

When night is falling
You dream of city lights
Your hair then falling
You hold my hand
And then you cry
I'm in love with you
And ooh
And I can't find any
I'll be waiting then
It all comes back to
Your half-smile
Country mile
Angel child
Want you to stay
Want you to sway
Want you
I do
I'm in love with you
I'm in love with you

Jealousy

Hey now
Never want to be alone
Never want to be apart from you
On your own
Hey now
And if you run and hide
And you tell me there's a hurt
You confide
And you've been lost for so long
And I'm your forest and I'll come through
Your little jealousy
Your little jealousy
Your little jealousy
Over me

Hey now
Throw your arms around me
And you tell me there's no reason to believe
And hey now now
And if I reassure you
I can tell you in one little
And love is a fallen star shining on you
Love could cure a heart
You've been lost for so long,dear
And all your hornets disappear
A little jealousy
Oh, jealousy
Your little jealousy
Over me
Jealousy

And there's a fallen star
Shining on you
Love could cure our hearts
You've been lost
For so long dear
And every time
Your heart pulls on my strings
You're a little jealousy
A little jealousy
Over me
Your jealousy
Over me
Yeah yeah yeah

Lover, Lover

Lover darling
When you hold my hand
It's all I have until tomorrow
Lover darling
When you hold my life
If it's you it's right
Until tomorrow

Lover lover come to me
If you need sympathy
Lover lover won't you speak
I can barely hear you breathe

Lover angel
The stars at night
In a burned-out sky
Until tomorrow
Lover angel
Got your wings to fly
And the wind inside
'Cause you're still there

Lover lover come to me
If you need sympathy
Lover lover won't you speak
I can barely hear you breathe

On the way to the sun
And there's a new world just begun
I can feel I'm getting older
I can feel the years wash over
You're the only one I love

Lover lover come to me
If you need sympathy
Lover lover won't you speak
I can hardly hear
If you say that you love me
And if your heart's one and only
If you live with me for just one day
Until tomorrow
Until tomorrow

Lover lover come to me
If you need sympathy

Silver String

Ooh
I need you tonight
You lay sleeping by my side
And I worry, dear
When things you say are bright and gay
And I want to hear your words
Of encouragement
And not a soul
Just I will know

We're lovers dear
And we're honestly
Together somehow
And tied with silver string
We'll live for ever and ever
Until you decide

And downhearted
And down 'cause we live apart
No, I can't fake it
Not for one more day
Is there someplace we can go
It's up to us to care
In you I trust
In all things there's a must
And never leave again

We're lovers dear
And we're honestly
Together somehow
And tied with silver string
We'll live for ever and ever
And if you decide
And don't lie
You know there'll still come time
We're lovers dear
And we're honestly
Together somehow
And tied with silver string
We'll live for ever and ever
And if you decide
Ooh

Winter

Love will carry me
Over land to the sea
Take me far away
To the home where I'll stay
I cared to follow
And through your eyes I will see
A place where there is light
And all the stars are out at night

And I'll come
Calling out your name
And I'll come
Calling out in vain
And I walk
No-one knows my name
And I'll come
Will you help me find my way

There's another way
If I leave you today
I'm down and I hurt
Am I hearing right
But I can't find you
If I fall away
In there I just ran away

And I'll come
Calling out your name
And I'll come
Calling out in vain
And I walk
No-one knows my name
And I'll come
If you help me find my way

If it's over
And the highest peak
I will come
If you cover me
I know I'll fail
I know I'm weak
But it's you again
Over and over I hear
Angels singing
Love
I dream at night about you
Yearning tides
Love the moon
Hold me in your morning light
And Jesus loves the best
I dreamed I had found you
And yearning tides
Love the moon
Hold me in your
And Jesus loves
Lovers light

One and Two

You and I
Are one and two
If you kill
We were both torn in two
You and I
Are one and two
Both our hearts
Beat as one, dear
And you
But is it okay
Is it okay
If I run away
It is okay
When your love has faded away
If I hold you tight and never let go
If I hold you tight and never let show
The way I feel
All around me
I know it's you

You and I
Are hopeless too
If I gave you all my heart could
And I'm true
All my life I've waited for
And there's nothing left
No there's no-one else
To live for
Any more
But is it okay
Is it okay
If I
I can escape
Your faith
Will need just one more longer
Day
Aaaah
If I hold you tight and never let go
If I hold you tight and never let show
The way I feel deep inside of me
I swear it's you
If I hold you tight and never let go
If I hold you tight and never let go
If I hold you tight and never let go
If i hold you in my arms
Forever
All around me
All around me
And I swear it's you

No One's Gonna Hurt You

No-one's gonna hurt you
Not any more
Ever since I've met you
I've grown to adore you
Adn I know they hurt you
Bruised and sore
No-one's gonna hurt you
No-one's gonna hurt you
Not anymore
No-one's gonna hurt you
No-one's gonna hurt you
Not any more

If I hold you close
I will take you to
A secret world
Where no-one knows
And I want to love you
The nightingale belongs to
Safe and sound
No-one's gonna hurt you
Not anymore
No-one's gonna hurt you
Not any more

You tried and so many years
Ran away
Still pray the heart
Oh you know this is a last chance
Forever gonna make
No-one's gonna hurt you
I will never leave you
Not anymore
No-one's gonna hurt you
I swear to God I need you
There is no more
No-one's gonna hurt you
Ooh
Yeah
There is a love for me
All my life silver stars
All my life stands alone
