Angeline

Have a little faith in me

Hell and highwater

Highway, highway

Let the healing begin

Out of the blue

Soul time

Standing knee deep in a river

Summer in the city

Take me home

The great devide

The simple things

Too cool

Angeline

You walked away and I face another day alone - Angeline
There's no answer when I call but somehow through it all I'm hanging on

I know I should have seen it coming but it's hard to face the truth
And reality hits me in the face I'm lost without you - Angeline

Lost in the sound of the city like a shadow in the rain
Memories come back to haunt me and I still feel the pain

Some days are better than the others but the nights remain
I sit and watch the dawn breaking and I whisper your name

Angeline - how can I survive without you in my life anymore
Angeline - there's so much I want to say and I've got to find a way to let you know

Words left unspoken and hearts are broken in two

Try to gather up the pieces of these broken dreams
But good-bye echoes in this lonely room like a silent scream - Angeline
How can I give you up when I still feel your touch on my skin - Angeline
Oh it tears me up inside to know that I may never feel that way again - Angeline

Have a little faith in me

When the road gets dark
And you can no longer see
Let my love throw a spark
Have a little faith in me

And when the tears you cry
Are all you can believe
Give these loving arms a try baby
Have a little faith in me

When your secret heart
Cannot speak so easily
From a whisper start
To have a little faith in me

And when your back's against the wall
Just turn around and you will see
I will catch your fall
Have a little faith in me

When the road gets dark
And you can no longer see
Let my love throw a spark
Have a little faith in me

I've been loving you for such a long time
Expecting nothing in return
Just for you to have a little faith in me
You know time, time is our friend

I will hold you up, I will hold you up
Your love gives me strength enough

Have a little faith in me

Hell and highwater

Well I was standing at the junction trying to kill some time
She was sitting high on a bar stool drinking some cheap red wine
I asked how she was doing she said she was doing fine
When she asked me for a cigarette I recognised the signs

Well I knew just what she wanted and I swear it wasn't love
She just needed something to keep her head above

Hell and highwater

Try and make it through the night - hell and high water
Sometimes it's hard to keep your head above - hell and high water
Sometimes it don't feel right - hell and high water
Well the girl's just trying to keep her head above - hell and high water

A rainy night at a station in an old half way hotel
The Kind if place to make you feel one stop away from hell
Where the angels meet the drifters where many strong men fell
I asked her if she had a name she said call me Jezebel

Well I knew just what she wanted and I swear it wasn't love
She just needed something to keep her head above

Hell and highwater

I pick up my suitcase I was heading for the door
When a voice behind with a scarlet smile
Said honey you'll be back for more

zurück

Highway, highway

The circle turns and the seasons change
dogs grow old and in the summer it still rains
But I never thought you and I would ever be apart

Babies cry at their mothers breast
And sunday morning is still a day to be blessed
But what can I tell my broken heart

Highway, highway
Give me wings to fly
It's gonna be hard letting go of you
And living separate lives

The stars aren't diamonds and the moons not blue
There's no gold at the end of the rainbow
There's no dream to hold on to, without you
The only thing that's real is this lonely road tonight

Maybe a change would be good for me
Who knows where this road might lead

Highway, highway
Where you go I don't know
Maybe closer to my dreams, maybe far away
Take me today

Highway, highway
Give me wings to fly
It's gonna be hard letting go of you
And living separate lives

It's gonna be hard letting go of you
And living separate lives

Let the healing begin

I've keep it inside much too long there's no relief
Carry it around just like a stone too heavy for me

I had paid the price
Of standing on the outside looking in

It's time to let the healing begin

A boy is strung out he's going through hell his mother weeps
His sprint is broken and there's nothing left just a terrible need

And the days are marked by the heaviness of the heart
It never mends until the healing begins

And the tension prowls the streets like an animal
The people stay behind their locks and chains
It's a shame when so many are trying their best to live as one
And the smoke from the fires covers the sun.

A young girl is lying in the dirt her dreams ended there
Caught in the crossfire on somebody's turf hatred in the air

It's a voice that never sings a winter without the spring
t never ends it's time to let the healing begin
It's time to let the healing begin

zurück

Out of the blue

Out of this world out of this mind
Out of this love for you out of this world
Out of the blue out of this love for you

Some times I don't know you you're like someone else
But that's alright I'm stranger here myself
She don't shed a tear when I walk out that door
Cause she knows, she knows I'll be coming back for more

It's in the cards it's written in the stars
It's in the wee, wee hours it's a lonely bar
But she don't stay up all night and walk the floor
Cause she knows dam well I'll be coming back for more

zurück

Soul time

I feel life passing me by a little more each day
We don't act out our love in that old sweet and simple way

The world's got problems baby we've got problems too
Why don't we work together and see what we can do

Take a little soul time say what's weighing on our minds
Take a little soul time there's no telling what we'll find
Let's love life and live it stop fighting and crying
Start hanging together and reaching and trying this time

Take a little soul time

There's still a place we can go inside you and me
To change our life as it is into life as it should be

Unseen angels, baby answer if we call
All our hopes and dreams they won't let us fall

Take a little soul time say what's weighing on our minds
Take a little soul time there's no telling what we'll find
Let's love life and live it stop fighting and crying
Start hanging together and reaching and trying this time

Take a little soul time

We could be so fine, so fine
If we just lay it on the line this time 

zurück

Standing knee deep in a river

Friends I could count on I could count on one hand
With a left over finger or two I took them all for granted
Let them all slip away where they wish I knew

They roll by just like water and I guess we never learn
Go through life parched and empty standing knee deep in a river dying of thirst

Sometimes I remember sweethearts I've known
Some I've forgotten I suppose one or two still linger
Oh and I wonder now why I ever let them go

They roll by just like water and I guess we never learn
Go through life parched and empty standing knee deep in a river dying of thirst

The sidewalk is crowded the city rolls by
And I rush through another day in a world full of strangers
Turn there eyes to me and just look the other way 

zurück

Summer in the city

Hot town summer in the city back of my neck getting dirt and gritty
Been down, isn't it a pity doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
All around people looking half dead walking on the sidewalk hotter than a match head

But at night it's a different world go out and find a girl
Come on, come on and dance all night despite the heat it will be alright
And babe, don't you know it's a pity the days can't be like the night
In the summer in the city

Cool town, evening in the city dressed so fine and looking so pretty
Cool cat looking for a kitty gonna look in every corner of the city
Till I'm weezin like a bus stop running up the stairs gonna meet ya on the roof top

zurück

Take me home

Maybe we're standing on the threshold with our eyes open wide
Let the river keep on flowing we can reach the other side
Caught in this endless revolution under helicopter skies
To lose becomes unthinkable and to win is the only road now

There's a bridge over the water I can see it like a rainbow
If you love me I'll be waiting take me home to the other side

All the men and all the women who sacrifice their love
Never taste what we took for granted no they don't know love at all
Some of them broken some of them wounded and so cynical from the pain
I was quiet as a grave yard till you heard me calling out your name

Life was victorious now it can't be denied
We'll stand together cause love is on our side

zurück

The great divide

Nights are long and the wind is howling down into the hollows
Somewhere deep inside I can hear you calling out
Across this great divide

Right or wrong there's a feeling in my heart I try to follow
But lately I just hide and my dream of someday crawling out
To cross this great divide

Isolation heart like a drum and the beating in wearing me down
Standing at the station but the train never comes
Still I'm hanging on like some old ghost town

Miles to go but I see that one way out stars in the distance
Skies are open wide waiting for my soul to rise
Above this great divide

Desperation is a dangerous blade in a reckless and trembling Hand
Sweet salvation just a thin line away
I should cut and run but I'll make my stand

Nights are long but I'll close my eyes again
Until tomorrow slip the bonds and ride
Touch the face I long to see above this great divide

We'll be all we long to be beyound this great divide

zurück

The simple things

Somewhere along the way I got caught up in the race
I kept spinning and turning lost myself my hope my faith

We're always wanting more than what we have
And what I've learned is all I really need are...

The simple things that come without a price
The simple things like happiness joy and love in my life
I've seen it all from so many sides and I hope you would agree
The best things in my life are the simple things

Hey everybody don't get me wrong
you got to understand ambition and knowledge
Are the seeds of every woman and man

It's good to work... work hard and prosper
As long as you take time to find...

The simple things...

This world moves so fast
sometimes you got to slow down, down, down
To find out what it's all about

We're always wanting more...

zurück

Too cool

It's too late
It's too late for tears
'cause you know tonight one thing is clear
I could sit at home and cry
Useless as it is
Or I can try to love again

I'll be too cool
Too cool for words
Too cool, to ever get hurt, too cool
It's a lesson I've learned from you
You've got to be (cool)

So long to yesterday
Goodbye is the price you pay
You think that I was the fool
But baby, you broke all the rules

I'm all right, I'll soon be better
'cause you know
Heart aches don't last forever
You went and left me cold
Searching for somebody New
But you'll come home
And when you do

I'll be, too cool
Too cool for words
Too cool, to ever get hurt, too cool
It's a lesson I learned from you
Got to be cool

Too cool
Too cool for words

Got too be cool
Too cool
