"What's Forever For"



I've been lookin' at people
And how they change with the times
And lately all I've been seein' are people
Throwin' love away and losing their minds

Maybe it's me who's gone crazy
'Cause I can't understand why
All these lovers keep hurtin' each other
When love is so hard to come by

So what's the glory in living?
Doesn't anybody ever stay together anymore?
And if love never lasts forever
Tell me what's forever for?

I've been listenin' to people
And they say love is the key
And it's not my way to let them lead me astray
It's only that I want to believe

I see love-hungry people
Tryin' their best to survive
While in their hands is a dying romance
And they're not even tryin' to keep it alive

So what's the glory in living?
Doesn't anybody ever stay together anymore?
And if love never lasts forever
Tell me what's forever for?

So what's the glory in living?
Doesn't anybody ever stay together anymore?
And if love never lasts forever
Tell me what's forever for?

"Whatever Happened To Old Fashioned Love"



We live in the modern age
Where love is fast like a turning page
In a magazine, we've hardly seen
The friends we used to know
They disappear, they come and go
Like the times we've had
It's kind of sad

Whatever happened to old fashioned love
The kind that would see you through
The kind of love my Momma and Daddy knew
Yeah, whatever happened to old fashioned love
The kind that would last through the years
Through the trials
Through the smiles
Through the tears

Today is all we've planned
We say tomorrow we'll understand
If it all should end
We'd be alone again

Ohh, whatever happened to old fashioned love
The kind that would see you through
The kind of love my Momma and Daddy knew
Yeah, whatever happened to old fashioned love
The kind that would last through the years
Through the trials
Through the smiles
Through the tears

For now the tenderness
Has been replaced
With something less
And it's hard to find
What we left behind

Ohh, whatever happened to old fashioned love
The kind that would see you through
The kind of love my Momma and Daddy knew
Yeah, whatever happened to old fashioned love
The kind that would last through the years
Through the trials
Through the smiles
Through the tears.

"Why Don't We Go Somewhere And Love"



I don't want to read the paper this morning
I don't want to hear no busy city sounds
There's so many things that's so much more important
And they're the only things worth thinkin' bout

Why don't go somewhere and love
It's been a long long time
Why don't we just go somewhere and love
And lock the world outside

Why don't we just lay down what we're doin'
We don't need a reason or a rhyme
Don't take the time to stop and think about it
If we talk too much we might just change our mind

So why don't we go somewhere and love
And leave it all behind
Why don't we just go somewhere and love
And stay a long long time

Why don't we go somewhere and love
And leave it all behind
Why don't we just go somewhere and love
And stay a long long time

"Wisdom Of A Fool"



If you're lucky enough
To have someone who loves you
Then be glad
That you have
Someone who loves you
For lips that are warm
Can grow cool
Listen to the wisdom of a fool

When you take her poor heart
And you do something to it
Then you say to yourself
Why did I do it
You may find that the world can be cruel
Listen to the wisdom of a fool

Now I had a love just the same as you
And I was a fool not to see
But you still have time to say
I love you
I'm afraid it's too late for me

Go back to the arms
That you know will be waiting
Hold her close and be glad
Glad that she's waiting
You'll be happy
Believe me if you
Only listen to the wisdom of a fool

Only listen to the wisdom of a fool

"Without A Doubt"



I flash back and think about
The time I first found you
You took me in just as I was
And made me feel brand new
And though it wasn't long ago
At times it's hard to believe
It really actually happened
I let you get to me

Without a doubt
I've had my doubts
Without a doubt
I finally found out
I remember oh so clear
When you came here in my heart
In my heart

When I get lonely
I remember that old me
And doubt if I can keep it up
Till I go back and see
The first time that you found me
You must have known love well
Or maybe you were love itself
At the time I couldn't tell

Without a doubt
I've had my doubts
Without a doubt
Now I finally found out
I remember oh so clear
When you came here in my heart
In my heart

Without a doubt
I've had my doubts
Without a doubt
I finally found out
I remember oh so clear
When you came here

Without a doubt
I've had my doubts
Without a doubt
Now I finally found out
I remember oh so clear
When you came here

"Without Love"



I awakened this morning
I was filled with despair
All my dreams turned to ashes and cold
And as I looked at my life
It was barren and bare

Without love I have nothing at all

Without love
I have nothing
Without love
I have nothing at all
I could conquer the world
But nothing would I have
Without love I have nothing at all

Oh I could conquer the world
But what would I have
Without love
I have nothing at all

Without love
I have nothing

"Would They Love Him Down In Shreveport"



If they saw Him riding in, long hair flying in the wind,
Would they love Him down in Shreveport today?
If they heard He was a Jew and a Palestinian too,
Would they love Him down in Nashville today?

If they saw Him talk with ease to the junkies, whores, and thieves,
Would they love Him out in Wichita today?
Would the rich men think it funny if He said give up your money?
Would they love Him up on Wall Street today?

If He made the wine from water, gave it to their sons and daughters,
What would the folks in Salt Lake City say?
If He talked of brotherhood as he walked their neighborhoods,
Would they love Him up in Boston today?

If He said love those who use you, and forgive those who abuse you,
If He turned the other cheek, what would you say?
Would you laugh and call Him crazy, and just send Him on his way,
If Jesus came to your town today?

"You Call That A Mountain"



I always heard about the great Atlantic
How it humbles you to stand upon it's shore
So I thought I'd take some time to go and see it
Since I had no ties upon me anymore
But I don't know what I'd wasted my time for

You call that an ocean?
To me it's just a pond that's almost dry
If you want to see an ocean
You should see the tears her leaving made me cry

So I headed west to see that famous canyon
That the Colorado cut so deep and wide
I thought seeing something lower down than I felt
Might cheer me up and ease my troubled mind
But I just got disappointed one more time

You call that a canyon?
It's nothing but a pothole in the yard
If you want to see a canyon
You should see the hole she left here in my heart

So now I stand here staring at the Rockies
I've heard they reach right up to heaven's door
They're like that little hole and that blue puddle
And I see now what I should have seen before
Without her life holds no wonders anymore

You call that a mountain?
It's just a little pile of rocks and dirt
If you want to see a mountain
You ought to try getting over her
You call that a mountain

"You Gave Me Love"



You gave me time when no one gave me time of day,
You looked deep inside while the rest of the world looked away,
You smiled at me when there were just frowns everywhere,
You gave me love when nobody gave me a prayer.

That's why I call You Saviour... that's why I call You Friend,
You touched my heart... You touched my soul,
And helped me start all over again,
That's why I love You, Jesus... that's why I'll always care,
You gave me love when nobody gave me a prayer.

You gave me laughter after I cried all my tears,
You heard my dreams while the rest of the world closed it's ears,
I looked in Your eyes, and I found the tenderness there,
You gave me love when nobody gave me a prayer.

That's why I call You Saviour... that's why I call You Friend,
You touched my heart... You touched my soul,
And helped me start all over again.
That's why I love You, Jesus... that's why I'll always care,
You gave me love when nobody gave me a prayer.

"You Make Me Feel Brand New"



My love
I'll never find the words, my love
To tell you how I feel, my love
Mere words could not explain
Precious love
You held my life within your hands
Created everything I am
Taught me how to live again

Only you
Cared when I needed a friend
Believed in me thick and thin
This song is for you
Filled with gratitude and love

God bless you
You make me feel brand new
For God blessed me with you
You made me feel brand new
I sing this song 'cause you
Make me feel brand new

My love
Whenever I was insecure
You built me up and made me sure
You gave my pride back to me
Precious friend
With you I'll always have a friend
You're someone who I can depend
To walk a path that never ends

Without you
My life has no meaning or rhyme
Like notes to a song out of time
How can I repay
You for having faith in me

God bless you
You make me feel brand new
For God blessed me with you
You made me feel brand new
I sing this song 'cause you
Make me feel brand new

God bless you
You make me feel brand new
For God blessed me with you
You made me feel brand new
I sing this song 'cause you
Make me feel brand new

God bless you
You make me feel brand new
For God blessed me with you
You made me feel brand new
I sing this song 'cause you
Make me feel brand new

"You Were There To Catch Me"



You were there to catch me
When I fell in love
Fell in love
You were there to catch me
When I fell in love
Fell in love

The paper moon I was reaching for
Was never really there
And you were there to catch me
When I fell in love
When I fell into your love

When you came my sadness
Walked out the door
Out the door
Your love gave me something
Worth living for
Living for

My life was broken and shattered
But you made the pieces fall right in place
And you were there to catch me
When I fell in love
When I fell into your love

Ev'rytime I slipped and fell
Your arms were open wide
You never turned your back on me
And never said goodbye

And you were there to catch me
When I fell in love
Fell in love
But now you're right beside me
When I need your love
Need your love

Life a leaf I was surely falling
And you were the ground
You were there to catch me
When I fell in love
When I fell into your love

You were there to catch me
When I fell in love
When I fell into your love

You were there to catch me
When I fell in love
When I fell into your love

You were there to catch me
When I fell in love
When I fell into your love

You were there to catch me
When I fell in love
When I fell into your love

You were there to catch me
When I fell in love
When I fell into your love

"Your Tears Leave Me Cold"



I remember the feeling of wanting to die
When you said goodbye
Now you've come back home, crying
Go on and cry, girl, your tears leave me cold

At first the pain of losing you
Tore my poor heart in two
Now I find my prayers weren't lying
Go on and cry, girl, your tears leave me cold

If you think I still love you
You're mistaken, I don't care what you do
Never thought I'd see your heart aching
Go on and cry, girl, your tears leave me cold

Yes, I saw her on the corner drinking wine
The same girl I once called mine
You say that you'll be true, stop lying
Go on and cry, girl, your tears leave me cold

Go on and cry, girl, your tears leave me cold
Go on and cry
