She don't care about my car
She don't care about my money
And that's real good because I don't got alot to spend
But if I did it wouldn't mean nothin'
She likes me for me
Not because I look like Tyson Beckford
With the charm of Robert Redford
Oozing out my ears
But what she sees
Are my faults and indecisions
My insecure conditions
And the tears upon the pillow that I shed
She don't care about my big screen
Or my collection of DVD's
Things like that just never mattered much to her
Plus she don't watch to much t.v.
And she don't care that I can fly her
To places she ain't never been
But if she really wants to go
I think deep down she knows that
All she has to say is when
She likes me for me
Not because I hang with Leonardo
Or that guy who played in "Fargo"
I think his name is Steve
She's the one for me
And I just can't live without her
My arms belong around her
And I'm so glad I found her once again
And I'm so glad I found her once again
And I'm so glad I found her once again
Gazing at the ceiling
as we entertain our feelings in the dark
The things that we're afraid of are gonna show us
what we're made of in the end
She likes me for me
Not because I sing like Pavarotti
Or because I am such a hottie
I like her for her
Not because she's phat like Cindy Crawford
She has got so much to offer
Why does she waste all her time with me
There must be something there that I don't see
She likes me for me
Not because I'm tough like Dirty Hairy
Make her laugh just like Jim Carrey
Unlike the Cable Guy
But what she sees
Is that I can't live without her
My arms belong around her
And I'm so glad I found her once again
Found her once again
I'm so glad I found her once again
On again
Standing At The Edge Of The Earth Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
I knew that this moment would come in time
That I'd have to let go and watch you fly
I know you're coming back so why am I dying inside
Are you searching for words that you can't find
Trying to hide your emotions but eyes don't lie
Guess there's no easy way to say goodbye
So I'll be standing at the edge of the earth
Hoping that someday you'll come back again
I'll be standing at the edge of the earth hoping for someday
Don't misunderstand what I'm trying to say
I don't want to let you leave this way
I want you to know that I stand right by your side
And I know this may be
The very last time that we see each other cry
But whatever happens know that I'll....
I'll be standing at the edge of the earth
Hoping that one day you'll come back again
I'll be standing at the edge of the earth hoping that someday
You'll come back to me
I'll be praying for whatever it's worth
Believing that one day you'll come back to me
I'll be standing at the edge of the earth
Hoping for someday
And I know this may be
The very last time that we see each other cry
But whatever happens know that I'll....
I'll be standing at the edge of the earth
Hoping that one day you'll come back again
I'll be standing at the edge of the earth hoping that someday
You'll come back to me
I'll be praying for whatever it's worth
Believing that one day you'll come back to me
I'll be standing at the edge of the earth
Hoping for someday
Waiting for someday Believing in someday
Praying for someday, I'll be....
Longing for someday Clinging to someday
Cherishing someday, I'll be....
Thinking of someday Dreaming of someday
Wishing for someday, I'll be....
Living for someday Counting on someday
Knowing that one day....
I will see you
That I'd have to let go and watch you fly
I know you're coming back so why am I dying inside
Are you searching for words that you can't find
Trying to hide your emotions but eyes don't lie
Guess there's no easy way to say goodbye
So I'll be standing at the edge of the earth
Hoping that someday you'll come back again
I'll be standing at the edge of the earth hoping for someday
Don't misunderstand what I'm trying to say
I don't want to let you leave this way
I want you to know that I stand right by your side
And I know this may be
The very last time that we see each other cry
But whatever happens know that I'll....
I'll be standing at the edge of the earth
Hoping that one day you'll come back again
I'll be standing at the edge of the earth hoping that someday
You'll come back to me

Stone Glass Window Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
Was conceived outta nuthin'
Always be what I've been
If I focus the real world
One day I might tune it in
Do I have to shout, Do I have to wave a gun
hide my head from the sun screamin' someone anyone
Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey
Tell me why why if you bleed, I'm the one that's gotta bleed
Got me fiendin' for the need to say hey look at me
Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey
I'm looking for something more than this
Can't see out my stone glass window
Pick me up in your dream life
Wrap me up in your gold
Tease me just like a dog needs a bone
Then throw me out in the cold
Ah....It's time to make a choice but I'm afraid to make some noise
When I hear the silent voice and the voice is telling me
Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey
Cause I'm a man on the run, do I have to wave a gun
Will I end up like the rest where the rest sleep eternally
Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey
I'm looking for something more than this
Can't sleep on this concrete pillow
I'm looking for something better than this
I'm slipping back to the low....
I'm going down
In my head is the sound
It's the voice of no one....
I'm looking for something more than this
Can't see out my stone glass window
Tehre's gotta be something better that this
I'm slipping back to the low....
Always be what I've been
If I focus the real world
One day I might tune it in
Do I have to shout, Do I have to wave a gun
hide my head from the sun screamin' someone anyone
Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey
Tell me why why if you bleed, I'm the one that's gotta bleed
Got me fiendin' for the need to say hey look at me
Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey
I'm looking for something more than this
Can't see out my stone glass window
Pick me up in your dream life
Wrap me up in your gold
Tease me just like a dog needs a bone
Then throw me out in the cold
Ah....It's time to make a choice but I'm afraid to make some noise
When I hear the silent voice and the voice is telling me
Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey
Cause I'm a man on the run, do I have to wave a gun
Will I end up like the rest where the rest sleep eternally
Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey
I'm looking for something more than this
Can't sleep on this concrete pillow
I'm looking for something better than this
I'm slipping back to the low....
I'm going down
In my head is the sound
It's the voice of no one....
I'm looking for something more than this
Can't see out my stone glass window
Tehre's gotta be something better that this
I'm slipping back to the low....
If She Couldn't Sleep Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
As I lie awake in the other room
I could probably stay awake til noon time
So frustrating knowing what could be
What's even worse is she used to belong to me
As I toss and turn there's nothing I can do
But if she couldn't sleep maybe we could make up
But I just can't seem to wake her up this time
Oh, no If she couldn't sleep
I know she'd tell herself maybe she might need
A little time to stop her heart from bleeding so
Like me, I wish she couldn't sleep
8AM and she's not at home
Stayed out all night wonder if she's all alone or
With someone new and she won't even call
To ease my mind just to help me break the fall
Now I'm feeling all the things I put her through
But if she couldn't sleep maybe we could make up
But I just can't seem to wake her up this time
Oh, no if she couldn't sleep
I know she'd tell herself that she might need
A little time to stop her heart from bleeding so
Like me, but I guess she's doing fine
I wonder if she knows she's on my mind
I could probably stay awake til noon time
So frustrating knowing what could be
What's even worse is she used to belong to me
As I toss and turn there's nothing I can do
But if she couldn't sleep maybe we could make up
But I just can't seem to wake her up this time
Oh, no If she couldn't sleep
I know she'd tell herself maybe she might need
A little time to stop her heart from bleeding so
Like me, I wish she couldn't sleep
8AM and she's not at home
Stayed out all night wonder if she's all alone or
With someone new and she won't even call
To ease my mind just to help me break the fall
Now I'm feeling all the things I put her through
But if she couldn't sleep maybe we could make up
But I just can't seem to wake her up this time
Oh, no if she couldn't sleep
I know she'd tell herself that she might need
A little time to stop her heart from bleeding so
Like me, but I guess she's doing fine
I wonder if she knows she's on my mind
South Hampton Avenue Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
She lies in bed out of her head sucking a cigarette
Closing her eyes she really tries to make believe she's dead
But she's not
She's not
In the next tomb her old man's room it's another night
He slips away on cathode ray into the TV light
Yea it's on
But he's gone
We live on South Hampton Avenue
We'll leave the welcome light on for you
Now that you think you know who we are
How do you like us so far
Right down the stairs my mom is there under the mushroom cloud
Sometimes she sits sometimes she knits sometimes she talks out loud
To herself
She's allowed
Hanging on the wall up and down the hall pictures of family
My brother Dave is on display for all the world to see
Now he's gone
He moved on
We live on South Hampton Avenue
I've got a feelin' that so do you...
Closing her eyes she really tries to make believe she's dead
But she's not
She's not
In the next tomb her old man's room it's another night
He slips away on cathode ray into the TV light
Yea it's on
But he's gone
We live on South Hampton Avenue
We'll leave the welcome light on for you
Now that you think you know who we are
How do you like us so far
Right down the stairs my mom is there under the mushroom cloud
Sometimes she sits sometimes she knits sometimes she talks out loud
To herself
She's allowed
Hanging on the wall up and down the hall pictures of family
My brother Dave is on display for all the world to see
Now he's gone
He moved on
We live on South Hampton Avenue
I've got a feelin' that so do you...
What Have I Got To Lose Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
I started to write you a letter the other day
Didn't know exactly what I was going to say
And at the last minute I threw it all away
Cause I didn't think you1d read it anyway
And I'm the kind of man who1s glass is half full
But I'm a bit torn from the strings you pulled
And since I already felt a bit abused
I thought to myself
What have I got to lose
Cause I can't fall much further down
And look what I've got to win
If you would only hear my heart
Yesterday I actually tried calling
But that was after six days and six nights of stalling
And I thought about everything that we've been through
All the different places that we went to
The times we hurt each other, sometimes we meant to
Trying to make up with flowers that I sent you
But now I'm at the crossroads and it's time to choose
And I guess I just figured, what the hell...
What have I got to lose
Cause I've already come this far
And look what I've got to win
If you would only search my heart and see what's deep inside
Don't want to go to sleep cause I don't want to dream
I always wake up with tears it seems
Can't blame it on you so it must be me
I'll beg for forgiveness if that's what I need to do
Cause I ain't got nothing to lose
I've lost the one thing missing from my life
But look what I1ve got to win
If only I can get you to hear my heart
What have I got to lose
When all I've lost is the everything that I need
And look what I've got to win
If you'll only listen, listen to my heart
Didn't know exactly what I was going to say
And at the last minute I threw it all away
Cause I didn't think you1d read it anyway
And I'm the kind of man who1s glass is half full
But I'm a bit torn from the strings you pulled
And since I already felt a bit abused
I thought to myself
What have I got to lose
Cause I can't fall much further down
And look what I've got to win
If you would only hear my heart
Yesterday I actually tried calling
But that was after six days and six nights of stalling
And I thought about everything that we've been through
All the different places that we went to
The times we hurt each other, sometimes we meant to
Trying to make up with flowers that I sent you
But now I'm at the crossroads and it's time to choose
And I guess I just figured, what the hell...
What have I got to lose
Cause I've already come this far
And look what I've got to win
If you would only search my heart and see what's deep inside
Don't want to go to sleep cause I don't want to dream
I always wake up with tears it seems
Can't blame it on you so it must be me
I'll beg for forgiveness if that's what I need to do
Cause I ain't got nothing to lose
I've lost the one thing missing from my life
But look what I1ve got to win
If only I can get you to hear my heart
What have I got to lose
When all I've lost is the everything that I need
And look what I've got to win
If you'll only listen, listen to my heart
The Rest Of My Life Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
I know you're heard the excuses before
So I won't waste your time and I'll keep this short
I've bound my emotions 'cause I can't afford to be wrong
I know we've talked about being good friends
So we've been real careful of the signals we've sent
But all of your glances they came and the went to my head
And I'm not a man to throuw words to the wind
When I said "I love you" that's what I meant
And I plan to show you if it takes me the rest of my life
The rest of my life
The rest of my life
I don't want to rush this cause my greatest fear
is taking for granted what's taken us years
To build from the ground up with all of the tears that we cried
We've taken our time and for this I'm so glad
Now we can be sure that this moment will last
We've traveled a road of mistakes in our past to get her
And I'm not about to throw words to the wind
When I said "I love you" that's what I meant
And I'm going to show you if it takes me the rest of my life
The rest of my life
The rest of my life
And I'm not a man to throw words to the wind
When I said "I love you" well, that's what I meant
And I plan to show you if it takes me the rest of my life
So I won't waste your time and I'll keep this short
I've bound my emotions 'cause I can't afford to be wrong
I know we've talked about being good friends
So we've been real careful of the signals we've sent
But all of your glances they came and the went to my head
And I'm not a man to throuw words to the wind
When I said "I love you" that's what I meant
And I plan to show you if it takes me the rest of my life
The rest of my life
The rest of my life
I don't want to rush this cause my greatest fear
is taking for granted what's taken us years
To build from the ground up with all of the tears that we cried
We've taken our time and for this I'm so glad
Now we can be sure that this moment will last
We've traveled a road of mistakes in our past to get her
And I'm not about to throw words to the wind
When I said "I love you" that's what I meant
And I'm going to show you if it takes me the rest of my life
The rest of my life
The rest of my life
And I'm not a man to throw words to the wind
When I said "I love you" well, that's what I meant
And I plan to show you if it takes me the rest of my life
Walking Off The Buzz Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
Amy woulda died for me
She would've had my baby
If I needed a favor
It was yes, she never said maybe
And all the time that we walked barefoot in the sand
Somehow we never felt the rain
Now I got nothin but time
Nothing but mine
I could walk off the hurt
Run through the pain
Wipe all the tears pouring down my face
Deny the dream, that just never was
Oh girl
I just can't walk off the buzz
Amy used to call me all the time
But she hasn't lately
I wonder if she goes out at all
And if she's dating
And every time I walk alone along the beach somehow
I always feel the rain
So many times I wished for my space
Now I wish I didn't feel so outta place
I could walk off the fear
Crawl through the hate
Beg you to forgive, my every mistake
Pretend you and I, it just never was
Oh girl
I just can't walk off the buzz
And now that I'm lonely
I see you were the only one
Who ever knew me and could
See right through me
I could walk off the hurt
Run through the pain
Wipe all the tears pouring down my face
Deny the dream, that just never was
Oh girl
I just can't walk off the buzz
I just can't walk off the buzz
I just can't walk off the buzz
She would've had my baby
If I needed a favor
It was yes, she never said maybe
And all the time that we walked barefoot in the sand
Somehow we never felt the rain
Now I got nothin but time
Nothing but mine
I could walk off the hurt
Run through the pain
Wipe all the tears pouring down my face
Deny the dream, that just never was
Oh girl
I just can't walk off the buzz
Amy used to call me all the time
But she hasn't lately
I wonder if she goes out at all
And if she's dating
And every time I walk alone along the beach somehow
I always feel the rain
So many times I wished for my space
Now I wish I didn't feel so outta place
I could walk off the fear
Crawl through the hate
Beg you to forgive, my every mistake
Pretend you and I, it just never was
Oh girl
I just can't walk off the buzz
And now that I'm lonely
I see you were the only one
Who ever knew me and could
See right through me
I could walk off the hurt
Run through the pain
Wipe all the tears pouring down my face
Deny the dream, that just never was
Oh girl
I just can't walk off the buzz
I just can't walk off the buzz
I just can't walk off the buzz
Real Good Friends Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
You came all this way to see me
There must be something I should know
Did you come here just to leave me
Cause I don't wanna let you go
I know you need more from me
Than I can give so now we'll see
If we can get along as real good friends
There's no need to say goodbye
We maybe better off a real good friends
To keep this love alive
Too much time and distance
Is what we were up against
And we didn't want to listen
To the advice of our friends
They said this can't last too long
They were right but they were also wrong
Cause now we're gonna be two real good friends
Even closer than before
That's the way I think it should've always been
But we just wanted more
From the first time that we made eyes
We knew there was something there
And if this is the last time
Then let's pretend we never met
So we can start again
We could learn how to be real good friends
Even closer than before
Cause that's the way we knew it shouldn've always been
And now we have it all
Ain't it better now that we're real good friends
Even closer than before
We'll never have to worry how the story ends
We'll just keep on wanting more
There must be something I should know
Did you come here just to leave me
Cause I don't wanna let you go
I know you need more from me
Than I can give so now we'll see
If we can get along as real good friends
There's no need to say goodbye
We maybe better off a real good friends
To keep this love alive
Too much time and distance
Is what we were up against
And we didn't want to listen
To the advice of our friends
They said this can't last too long
They were right but they were also wrong
Cause now we're gonna be two real good friends
Even closer than before
That's the way I think it should've always been
But we just wanted more
From the first time that we made eyes
We knew there was something there
And if this is the last time
Then let's pretend we never met
So we can start again
We could learn how to be real good friends

And now we have it all
Ain't it better now that we're real good friends

We'll never have to worry how the story ends
We'll just keep on wanting more
I Wanna Be There Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
Won't you let me catch your fall
Won't you let me lend a hand
Those lonely eyes have seen it all
But love's too blind to understand
Cause you don't know what you have

Gonna be your lover
Gonna be your friend
Gonna be there til the end
Jelly Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
I saw our future in her eyes
We searched for love amidst the lies
I didn't mean to draw her in
To a fight we'll never win
And I sigh as...
She becomes jelly in my hands
She told me things I never heard
And I just drank her every word
We swallow all that love can give
Cause love's the reason that we live
And I cry as...
She becomes jelly in my hands
We crossed our T's with gazing eyes
We knew it was finalized
Built this love on sinking sand
And I'm ashamed that I'm afraid to lend
a hand as...
She becomes jelly in my hands
We searched for love amidst the lies
I didn't mean to draw her in
To a fight we'll never win
And I sigh as...
She becomes jelly in my hands
She told me things I never heard
And I just drank her every word
We swallow all that love can give
Cause love's the reason that we live
And I cry as...
She becomes jelly in my hands
We crossed our T's with gazing eyes
We knew it was finalized
Built this love on sinking sand
And I'm ashamed that I'm afraid to lend
a hand as...
She becomes jelly in my hands
Light In Your Eyes Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
I can't remember the last time that we kissed goodbye
All our "I love you's" were just not enough to survive
Something your eyes never told me
But it's only now too plain to see
Brilliant disguise when you hold me
And I'm free
I've been thinking and here's what I've come to conclude
Sometimes the distance is more than two people can use
But how could I have known girl
It was time and not space you would need
Darling tonight I could hold you and you would know
But would you believe
There's a light in your eyes that I used to see
There's a place in your heart where I used to be
Was I wrong to assume that you were waiting for me
There's a light in your eyes
Did you leave that light burning for me
Cards and phone calls and photograph pictures of you
Constant reminder of all the things you get used to
Is there a chance in hell or heaven
That there's still something here to build on
Or do you just pick up the pieces after they fall
But after all
There's a light in your eyes that I used to see
And a song in the words that you spoke to me
Was I wrong to believe in your melody
There's a light in your eyes
Did you leave that light burning for me
Should I keep on waiting or does love keep on fading away
Fading away
It's been a while since I've seen you so how have you been
Did you get my letter I wrote you, but I did not send
I tried to call your old number
But the voice that I heard on the phone
I recognized but she told me the number was wrong
There's a light in my eyes but it's too bright to see
And a pain in my heart where you used to be
Guess I was wrong to assume that you were waiting here for me
There's a light in your eyes
Did you leave that light burning for me
All our "I love you's" were just not enough to survive
Something your eyes never told me
But it's only now too plain to see
Brilliant disguise when you hold me
And I'm free
I've been thinking and here's what I've come to conclude
Sometimes the distance is more than two people can use
But how could I have known girl
It was time and not space you would need
Darling tonight I could hold you and you would know
But would you believe
There's a light in your eyes that I used to see
There's a place in your heart where I used to be
Was I wrong to assume that you were waiting for me
There's a light in your eyes
Did you leave that light burning for me
Cards and phone calls and photograph pictures of you
Constant reminder of all the things you get used to
Is there a chance in hell or heaven
That there's still something here to build on
Or do you just pick up the pieces after they fall
But after all
There's a light in your eyes that I used to see
And a song in the words that you spoke to me
Was I wrong to believe in your melody
There's a light in your eyes
Did you leave that light burning for me
Should I keep on waiting or does love keep on fading away
Fading away
It's been a while since I've seen you so how have you been
Did you get my letter I wrote you, but I did not send
I tried to call your old number
But the voice that I heard on the phone
I recognized but she told me the number was wrong
There's a light in my eyes but it's too bright to see
And a pain in my heart where you used to be
Guess I was wrong to assume that you were waiting here for me
There's a light in your eyes
Did you leave that light burning for me
Scenes From A Coffee House Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
I remember Sunday afternoons at Kaldi's
I was never really down with coffee shops
A group of beatniks reading Kerouac
And the smell of grass from the parking lot
And as I recall
We got to know each other
We got to show each other
That we were fine just being friends
There's that guy who thinks he's Dylan
He plays guitar with the band
And he dedicates a song he thinks belongs to you and me
He must've seen us holding hands
But they don't know
We tried to cross that line before
But what we have is so much more
Cause now you will always be mine
And as I recall
We got to know each other
We got the show each other
That we were fine just being friends
We tried to cross that line before
But what we have is so much more
Cause now you will always be mine inside
And as I recall
We got to know each other
We got to show each other
That we were fine just being friends
And we still hold each other
And we still love each other
But we're just fine just being friends
I was never really down with coffee shops
A group of beatniks reading Kerouac
And the smell of grass from the parking lot
And as I recall
We got to know each other
We got to show each other
That we were fine just being friends
There's that guy who thinks he's Dylan
He plays guitar with the band
And he dedicates a song he thinks belongs to you and me
He must've seen us holding hands
But they don't know
We tried to cross that line before
But what we have is so much more
Cause now you will always be mine
And as I recall
We got to know each other
We got the show each other
That we were fine just being friends
We tried to cross that line before
But what we have is so much more
Cause now you will always be mine inside
And as I recall
We got to know each other
We got to show each other
That we were fine just being friends
And we still hold each other
And we still love each other
But we're just fine just being friends
Hold Her Closer Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
When you see love
And you don't know what it is
You might find yourself in fear
To show your heart
But when you feel it
And it's oh, so wonderful
You might find yourself in fear
To let it part, in fear to let it part
So hold her closer when she cries
Hold her closer when she feels
She needs a hand to hold
Someone who'll never let her go again
And hold him closer when he tries
To hold the tears back from his eyes
Don't say goodbye
When your heart decides
That it's time to let it through
There's no reason to be scared
To open up
Cause love may be blind
But all of us don't see it
So just once in your life
If you hear the knock of love
Just let it in
Hold her closer when she cries
Hold her closer when you know it's time to say goodbye
You hurry back to see her smile again
And hold him closer when he's down
When his world is upside down
Turn it around
So hold her closer when she cries
Hold her closer when she feels
She needs a hand to hold
Someone who'll never let her go
And hold her closer when she's down
When her world is upside down
Turn it around
Hold her close
And you don't know what it is
You might find yourself in fear
To show your heart
But when you feel it
And it's oh, so wonderful
You might find yourself in fear
To let it part, in fear to let it part
So hold her closer when she cries
Hold her closer when she feels
She needs a hand to hold
Someone who'll never let her go again
And hold him closer when he tries
To hold the tears back from his eyes
Don't say goodbye
When your heart decides
That it's time to let it through
There's no reason to be scared
To open up
Cause love may be blind
But all of us don't see it
So just once in your life
If you hear the knock of love
Just let it in
Hold her closer when she cries
Hold her closer when you know it's time to say goodbye
You hurry back to see her smile again
And hold him closer when he's down
When his world is upside down
Turn it around
So hold her closer when she cries
Hold her closer when she feels
She needs a hand to hold
Someone who'll never let her go
And hold her closer when she's down
When her world is upside down
Turn it around
Hold her close

Way We Were Before Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
When we started it was years ago
We tried so hard to find our souls
And lose the innocence that won't let go
So we crossed the line and can't turn back
Happy endings never last
Cause there's always more to stories never told
Is this what I've been waiting for
A life for someone else
To polish all my faded dreams and put them on the shelf
Is this what I've been dreaming of
Cause I'm needing so much more
I'm just trying to get back where we were before
We'd shine so hard for everyone
Cause we thought we had forever and
A day we never thought would end this way
With a million mornings left to come
We never cared for losing one
But it's half past my forever
And I need someone to hold my hand
And you're just what I've been waiting for
To come and take me in
To grab ahold of and take control and make me whole again
And if you need my everything
You can take it all and more
Just help me get back to where we were before
I've grown numb to some things
Hunger for one thing
That takes me back to where it all begain
I know we've grown apart
But every now and then
I just close my eyes and here we are again
And you're just what I've been waiting for
So come and take me in
Grab ahold and take control and make me whole my friend
And if you need my everything
You can take it all and more
Just help me get back where we were before
We tried so hard to find our souls
And lose the innocence that won't let go
So we crossed the line and can't turn back
Happy endings never last
Cause there's always more to stories never told
Is this what I've been waiting for
A life for someone else
To polish all my faded dreams and put them on the shelf
Is this what I've been dreaming of
Cause I'm needing so much more
I'm just trying to get back where we were before
We'd shine so hard for everyone
Cause we thought we had forever and
A day we never thought would end this way
With a million mornings left to come
We never cared for losing one
But it's half past my forever
And I need someone to hold my hand
And you're just what I've been waiting for
To come and take me in
To grab ahold of and take control and make me whole again
And if you need my everything
You can take it all and more
Just help me get back to where we were before
I've grown numb to some things
Hunger for one thing
That takes me back to where it all begain
I know we've grown apart
But every now and then
I just close my eyes and here we are again
And you're just what I've been waiting for
So come and take me in
Grab ahold and take control and make me whole my friend
And if you need my everything
You can take it all and more
Just help me get back where we were before
It's Your Day Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
It's your day
Colored pictures from a kid's eye
Across the way
And the animals all curious today
As if life is just a candle wish away
Wish away
It's your day
Candles burning more than you would like to say
Send the conversation way the other way
Did you find another silver line today
Or is it gray
Gotta learn to keep those ghosts away
Buy'em all a one way ticket on a flight to Neverland
God'll help you keep those ghosts away
It took a little while but I'm free again
Celebrate
There was a time that you were happy on this day
But you dreamed all of those precious years away
And the golden ones get closer everyday
Wouldn't you say
Gotta learn to keep those ghosts away
Buy'em a one way ticket on a flight to Neverland
God'll help you keep those ghosts away
It took a little while but I'm free again
Sing along
Lift your head up high cause there is nothing wrong
It's a wonder you survived it here this long
Living life as iuf it were a sing-along
Sing along
Gotta learn to keep those ghosts away
Buy'em all a one way ticket on a flight to Neverland
God'll help you keep those ghosts away
Took a little while but I'm free again
Need a little time til I'm free again
Colored pictures from a kid's eye
Across the way
And the animals all curious today
As if life is just a candle wish away
Wish away
It's your day
Candles burning more than you would like to say
Send the conversation way the other way
Did you find another silver line today
Or is it gray
Gotta learn to keep those ghosts away
Buy'em all a one way ticket on a flight to Neverland
God'll help you keep those ghosts away
It took a little while but I'm free again
Celebrate
There was a time that you were happy on this day
But you dreamed all of those precious years away
And the golden ones get closer everyday
Wouldn't you say
Gotta learn to keep those ghosts away
Buy'em a one way ticket on a flight to Neverland
God'll help you keep those ghosts away
It took a little while but I'm free again
Sing along
Lift your head up high cause there is nothing wrong
It's a wonder you survived it here this long
Living life as iuf it were a sing-along
Sing along
Gotta learn to keep those ghosts away
Buy'em all a one way ticket on a flight to Neverland
God'll help you keep those ghosts away
Took a little while but I'm free again
Need a little time til I'm free again
Humble Star Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
Back lounge tree hound
Glazed sun hell bound
Call up all your closest friends
So we can do it all again
Hey, humble star
Do you think you're gonna live forever
Did you ever have the feeling you were falling, walking
Now you're crawling
Blind man coke fan
Politician
Guess you got it all too soon
Now you're sucking on a glass balloon
Hey, humble star
Do you think you're gonna live forever
But what's forever
Is it better than what they bought and sold you
Now they control your soul
And all the time you knew that I was standing there
Asking all the questions, who and why and where...
You run and hide you swim away
Afraid of all the things I say
Now the time has caught up with you
Fast car child star
j.a.p. girl rap czar
No one is to blame
How's it feel to be a household name
Someone's about to lose
And it's playing on the evening news
Hey, crumbled star
I guess it didn't last forever
Does it ever
Forever's never
I guess you really weren't so clever
Glazed sun hell bound
Call up all your closest friends
So we can do it all again
Hey, humble star
Do you think you're gonna live forever
Did you ever have the feeling you were falling, walking
Now you're crawling
Blind man coke fan
Politician
Guess you got it all too soon
Now you're sucking on a glass balloon
Hey, humble star
Do you think you're gonna live forever
But what's forever
Is it better than what they bought and sold you
Now they control your soul
And all the time you knew that I was standing there
Asking all the questions, who and why and where...
You run and hide you swim away
Afraid of all the things I say
Now the time has caught up with you
Fast car child star
j.a.p. girl rap czar
No one is to blame
How's it feel to be a household name
Someone's about to lose
And it's playing on the evening news
Hey, crumbled star
I guess it didn't last forever
Does it ever
Forever's never
I guess you really weren't so clever
When She Comes Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
Passing all the pictures on the wall
Counting all the stairs I know them all
Knowing there is nothing left to say
I take her by the hand and lead the way
I lead the way for
When she comes
And she wants all the world to know
She calls my name, she calls my name
And she never lets me go
Have all my efforts found the way
Have all my efforts gone astray
Waiting by the closet down the hall
I can see her shadow on the wall
All of this for a bum like me
Beauty only for my eyes to see
I can see it
When she comes
And she wants everyone to know
She calls my name, she calls my name
And she never lets me go
Have all my efforts found the way
Have all my efforts gone astray
Feel all the pieces falling right back into place
Feel all emotions dripping down into my face
And all the love I know she feels for me
I can feel it
When she comes
Counting all the stairs I know them all
Knowing there is nothing left to say
I take her by the hand and lead the way
I lead the way for
When she comes
And she wants all the world to know
She calls my name, she calls my name
And she never lets me go
Have all my efforts found the way
Have all my efforts gone astray
Waiting by the closet down the hall
I can see her shadow on the wall
All of this for a bum like me
Beauty only for my eyes to see
I can see it
When she comes
And she wants everyone to know
She calls my name, she calls my name
And she never lets me go
Have all my efforts found the way
Have all my efforts gone astray
Feel all the pieces falling right back into place
Feel all emotions dripping down into my face
And all the love I know she feels for me
I can feel it
When she comes
Peace And Love Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
May every star you wish upon
And every hope you're hangin' on come true
Out of everybody in the world
There's no one who deserves it more than you
I hope you find
Everyhing you've been dreamin' of
Only good things

You must know what you mean to me
I wish that you could always be around
I hope you find
Everything you are worthy of
I'm gonna miss you
But I only wish you
Peace and love

Tears of joy

Wherever you may be in this world
My salutation says it all
May you always have enough
Peace and love
I let you go unselfishly
Cause everyone needs time to be alone
Well maybe time will bring you back
And if it does you'll always have a home
I sign my name

I'm on your side
No question of pride
Peace and love

I Believe Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
Walk blindly to the light and reach out for his hand
Don't ask any questions and don't try to understand
Open up your mind and then open up your heart
And you will see that you and me aren't very far apart
'Cause I believe that love is the answer
I believe that love will find the way
Violence is spread worldwide and there are families on the street
And we sell drugs to children now oh why can't we just see
That all we do is eliminate our future with the things we do today
Money is our incentive now so that makes it okay
But I believe that love is the answer
I believe that love will find the way
I believe that love is the answer
I believe that love will find the way
I've been seeing Lisa now for a little over a year
She said she's never been so happy but Lisa lives in fear
That one day daddy's gonna find out she's in love
With a nigger from the streets
Oh how he would lose it then but she's still here with me
'Cause she believes that love will see it through
And one day he'll understand
And he'll see me as a person not just a black man
'Cause I believe that love is the answer
I believe that love will find the way
I believe I believe I believe I believe that love is the answer
I believe that love will find the way
Love will find the way
Love will find the way
Love will find the way
Please love find the way
Please love find the way
Don't ask any questions and don't try to understand
Open up your mind and then open up your heart
And you will see that you and me aren't very far apart
'Cause I believe that love is the answer
I believe that love will find the way
Violence is spread worldwide and there are families on the street
And we sell drugs to children now oh why can't we just see
That all we do is eliminate our future with the things we do today
Money is our incentive now so that makes it okay
But I believe that love is the answer
I believe that love will find the way
I believe that love is the answer
I believe that love will find the way
I've been seeing Lisa now for a little over a year
She said she's never been so happy but Lisa lives in fear
That one day daddy's gonna find out she's in love
With a nigger from the streets
Oh how he would lose it then but she's still here with me
'Cause she believes that love will see it through
And one day he'll understand
And he'll see me as a person not just a black man
'Cause I believe that love is the answer
I believe that love will find the way
I believe I believe I believe I believe that love is the answer
I believe that love will find the way
Love will find the way
Love will find the way
Love will find the way
Please love find the way
Please love find the way

So you're scared to show your feelings

All Along Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
Seems like yesterday but years have passed us by
Precious memories are clear before my eyes
I can hear your voice calling out my name
But I don't know you now, nothing stays the same
All along I have wanted you
I pray tonight that you want me, too
All along there was no one else
I've been waiting here all by myself
If you were here with me we'd ride the ocean tide
To that special place I help for you deep inside
I've kept good company since you've been away
Lonely stayed with me with pride began to fade
All along I have wanted you
I pray tonight that you want me, too
All along there was no one else
I've been waiting here all by myself
And I will follow you til the end of time
Til our love is at the end of the line
You rolled out of my life just like the wind
And left behind a broken heart
All along I have wanted you
I pray tonight that you want me, too
All along there was no one else
I've been waiting here all by myself
Precious memories are clear before my eyes
I can hear your voice calling out my name
But I don't know you now, nothing stays the same
All along I have wanted you
I pray tonight that you want me, too
All along there was no one else
I've been waiting here all by myself
If you were here with me we'd ride the ocean tide
To that special place I help for you deep inside
I've kept good company since you've been away
Lonely stayed with me with pride began to fade
All along I have wanted you
I pray tonight that you want me, too
All along there was no one else
I've been waiting here all by myself
And I will follow you til the end of time
Til our love is at the end of the line
You rolled out of my life just like the wind
And left behind a broken heart
All along I have wanted you
I pray tonight that you want me, too
All along there was no one else
I've been waiting here all by myself
Oh Virginia Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
Here's my chance to say thank you to a place where
All my memories are fond and an essence of my heart
Waiting there with open arms
There's Melissa full of charm
How I miss her so, she's such a sight of love down in
Oh Virginia down the higway to 64
East way to Newport News
There you'll find an open door in
Oh Virginia all my friends are there to greet me
Just a smile down 64 along the open road
At the Patton Hotel I spent lots of time there
That's where we decided this is where we wanted to be
And down the road on Jefferson you'll find Steamer's close by
If you see Mark and Steve Breen
Tell 'em Jeff and I both said "hi"
But we were younger then never knowing then
That she would take us as her own
And make us part of her life
Highway to the sun we had so much fun
I can't wait to get there and tell 'em that I miss my second home
Oh Virginia down the way we'll be there in no time
Oh Virginia just a ride down 64
Oh Virginia I can see those signs from here
Oh Virginia 25 miles to Hampton Roads
We got friends in Yorktown we got friends in Williamsburg
We got friends in Newport News
We want all of y'all from Portsmouth sing
We got friends in Bluefield we got friends in Richmond
We got friends in Hampton Roads
And down by the beach let me hear everybody, yeah
All my memories are fond and an essence of my heart
Waiting there with open arms
There's Melissa full of charm
How I miss her so, she's such a sight of love down in
Oh Virginia down the higway to 64
East way to Newport News
There you'll find an open door in
Oh Virginia all my friends are there to greet me
Just a smile down 64 along the open road
At the Patton Hotel I spent lots of time there
That's where we decided this is where we wanted to be
And down the road on Jefferson you'll find Steamer's close by

But we were younger then never knowing then
That she would take us as her own
And make us part of her life

Oh Virginia down the way we'll be there in no time
Oh Virginia just a ride down 64
Oh Virginia I can see those signs from here
Oh Virginia 25 miles to Hampton Roads
We got friends in Yorktown we got friends in Williamsburg
We got friends in Newport News
We want all of y'all from Portsmouth sing
We got friends in Bluefield we got friends in Richmond
We got friends in Hampton Roads
And down by the beach let me hear everybody, yeah
Nora Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
I went to see my grandma today
I learned the difference between
Living and alive
Wall to wall roaches in a two by four infested room
Lying there in pain
Praying for the Lord to take her
Nora - I hope it won't be too long for you
Nora - All these years you've been so strong
Nora - I hope you don't mind if I call you Nora
I love you
After leaving her, I turned my life around
I see new life differently
Through the vision of the old
Oh, material things don't mean that muich to me
I guess I learned that I'm just
Glad to be alive and healthy
Nora - All this time that you have known me
Nora - It took your whole life just to show me
Nora - How we take some things for granted
Nora, Nora, Nora, I love you
And though I know there wasn't long to go
Time was something that we shared
And when you died I didn't cry for long
Cause I believe I'll see you again
Nora - I'll see you on the other side
Nora - I'll be the one with swallowed pride
Nora - Are you sure you don't mind if I call you
Nora, Nora, I love you, I love you, I love you
I love ... you
I learned the difference between
Living and alive
Wall to wall roaches in a two by four infested room
Lying there in pain
Praying for the Lord to take her
Nora - I hope it won't be too long for you
Nora - All these years you've been so strong
Nora - I hope you don't mind if I call you Nora
I love you
After leaving her, I turned my life around
I see new life differently
Through the vision of the old
Oh, material things don't mean that muich to me
I guess I learned that I'm just
Glad to be alive and healthy
Nora - All this time that you have known me
Nora - It took your whole life just to show me
Nora - How we take some things for granted
Nora, Nora, Nora, I love you
And though I know there wasn't long to go
Time was something that we shared
And when you died I didn't cry for long
Cause I believe I'll see you again
Nora - I'll see you on the other side
Nora - I'll be the one with swallowed pride
Nora - Are you sure you don't mind if I call you
Nora, Nora, I love you, I love you, I love you
I love ... you
Would You Be There Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
If I needed you so desperately
To come to me and talk to me
To take my heart and hand into your comfort zone
Where I'm not alone or lonely
Well would you take the time to be my friend
Cause in the end that's all there is
There's love the eternal bond between us
Would you be there
When the lights are down low and I'm feeliong insecure
With this bed so big and cold only memories to hold
It's your voice I need to hear to help me overcome this fear
I need your hand to help my heart from sinking into this quicksand of love
If I told you that I couldn't bear to be alone
Would you be there
And if I said I need your heart to be my home
Would you let me stay there
Would you be there for me
Can't you see
I need you and you need me tonight
Close your eyes
Realize
I've got so much love to give to you
To come to me and talk to me
To take my heart and hand into your comfort zone
Where I'm not alone or lonely
Well would you take the time to be my friend
Cause in the end that's all there is
There's love the eternal bond between us
Would you be there
When the lights are down low and I'm feeliong insecure
With this bed so big and cold only memories to hold
It's your voice I need to hear to help me overcome this fear
I need your hand to help my heart from sinking into this quicksand of love
If I told you that I couldn't bear to be alone
Would you be there
And if I said I need your heart to be my home
Would you let me stay there
Would you be there for me
Can't you see
I need you and you need me tonight
Close your eyes
Realize
I've got so much love to give to you
Home Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
If you can look into his tired and weary eyes
The can tell a million stories of all he holds inside
Waiting patiently 'til the day he dies
For a better life-for a better life
For a better life-for a better life
He saw people die because of their beliefs
He saw a leader shot down cold by men behind the trees
But he believes he believes that one day he will see
Love and harmony-love and harmony
Love and harmony-love and harmony
He said
Take me to a world that's filled with happy people
Take me to a land where the poor men are the rich ones
Where there are smiling faces and the lonely ain't alone
Take me to that peaceful place I call Home
Tell me how it is that someone can't believe
When the sun gives light and brown comes to the leaves
But we have got our own ideas of how the story's told
Lies and make believe-lies and make believe
Lies and make believe-lies and make believe
He said
Take me to a world that's filled with happy people
Take me to a land where the poor men are the rich ones
Where there are smiling faces and the lonely ain't alone
Take me to that peaceful place I call Home
The can tell a million stories of all he holds inside
Waiting patiently 'til the day he dies
For a better life-for a better life
For a better life-for a better life
He saw people die because of their beliefs
He saw a leader shot down cold by men behind the trees
But he believes he believes that one day he will see
Love and harmony-love and harmony
Love and harmony-love and harmony
He said
Take me to a world that's filled with happy people
Take me to a land where the poor men are the rich ones
Where there are smiling faces and the lonely ain't alone
Take me to that peaceful place I call Home
Tell me how it is that someone can't believe
When the sun gives light and brown comes to the leaves
But we have got our own ideas of how the story's told
Lies and make believe-lies and make believe
Lies and make believe-lies and make believe
He said
Take me to a world that's filled with happy people
Take me to a land where the poor men are the rich ones
Where there are smiling faces and the lonely ain't alone
Take me to that peaceful place I call Home
End Of The World Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
You spend half the time dreaming and the other half's a lie
You don't know where you're going and you don't know how to try
You don't really have a best friend but you think that you're in love
Now all you can remember are the words he used the most
Like the "lie" in believe
The "I" in decieve
The "her" in together
The "we" in the weather
He said a lot of things I'm sure he meant them at the time
But it's not the end of the world
Well you didn't see it coming cause you never understood
That there's a time to draw the line when things are going good
But you just kept on giving beyond the call of love
And he was kind to rob you blind of the pieces of your heart
Like that part that made you give
And the part that made you weak
When he would softly kiss you
And tell you that he missed you
I know it doesn't seem like what I'm going to say is true
But it's not the end of the world
It's not the end of the line
You know there's more to love
You know there's more to life
And I know there's more to you
Well I can't help but think about you in the middle of the night
I know it's kinda lonely but you have to win this fight
I just wish that I could hold you and tell you it's allright
But it's not the end of the world
You don't know where you're going and you don't know how to try
You don't really have a best friend but you think that you're in love
Now all you can remember are the words he used the most
Like the "lie" in believe
The "I" in decieve
The "her" in together
The "we" in the weather
He said a lot of things I'm sure he meant them at the time
But it's not the end of the world
Well you didn't see it coming cause you never understood
That there's a time to draw the line when things are going good
But you just kept on giving beyond the call of love
And he was kind to rob you blind of the pieces of your heart
Like that part that made you give
And the part that made you weak
When he would softly kiss you
And tell you that he missed you
I know it doesn't seem like what I'm going to say is true
But it's not the end of the world
It's not the end of the line
You know there's more to love
You know there's more to life
And I know there's more to you
Well I can't help but think about you in the middle of the night
I know it's kinda lonely but you have to win this fight
I just wish that I could hold you and tell you it's allright
But it's not the end of the world
Heaven Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
Well it's all right to feel like time is running down
And make amends with those who once have let you down
To cry for children who have not yet had their chance
To pray for foes in hopes that one day we'll join hands
And live in Heaven
Heaven forever Heaven forever
Heaven forever Heaven forever
Love's waiting past the stars
Tranquility is not that far
Believe in Him he believes in you
And I'll see you in Heaven
I seen a messenger who was preaching on the street
He had nothing but the blisters on his feet
And all those big shots with their Mercedes' and yachts
There'll be a time fir the to let go what they got
And I'll see them in Heaven (...maybe)
Heaven forever Heaven forever
Heaven forever Heaven forever
Do you feel it? Do you see?
There's no admission, Heaven's free
This is ther world which we decided
Without the love we're all divided
Love's waiting in the sky
Tears for Him will puriufy
The answer is in His eyes
And He'll see you in Heaven
Do you live for Heaven
Would you die for Heaven
Then I'll see you in Heaven
And make amends with those who once have let you down
To cry for children who have not yet had their chance
To pray for foes in hopes that one day we'll join hands
And live in Heaven
Heaven forever Heaven forever
Heaven forever Heaven forever
Love's waiting past the stars
Tranquility is not that far
Believe in Him he believes in you
And I'll see you in Heaven
I seen a messenger who was preaching on the street
He had nothing but the blisters on his feet
And all those big shots with their Mercedes' and yachts
There'll be a time fir the to let go what they got
And I'll see them in Heaven (...maybe)
Heaven forever Heaven forever
Heaven forever Heaven forever
Do you feel it? Do you see?
There's no admission, Heaven's free
This is ther world which we decided
Without the love we're all divided
Love's waiting in the sky
Tears for Him will puriufy
The answer is in His eyes
And He'll see you in Heaven
Do you live for Heaven
Would you die for Heaven
Then I'll see you in Heaven
Forever For Tonight Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
Could I be with you alone
I'm not sure where this will go
Cause we don't have the time we need
Just enough to make us bleed
Cause I'll be leaving soon
It's hard to say when I'll return
And I don't want to lead you on
So if you feel the need
Close your eyes abd share this dream
It will be eternity
Forever for tonight
I will be there to hold you through the night
Forever for tonight
I will love you forever for tonight
Forever for tonight
Al I look into your eyes
Feelings much too strong for us not to try
And if by chance we lose this fight
Darling we still have tonight
So when I'm far away
I will always be with you
You will never be alone
So if you feel the need
Take my hand and share this night
It will be eternity
See I've been broken down by empty promises
Like a sky without a star
And I've been having doubts that I could feel again
But I believe that I'm in love
I'm not sure where this will go
Cause we don't have the time we need
Just enough to make us bleed
Cause I'll be leaving soon
It's hard to say when I'll return
And I don't want to lead you on
So if you feel the need
Close your eyes abd share this dream
It will be eternity
Forever for tonight
I will be there to hold you through the night
Forever for tonight
I will love you forever for tonight
Forever for tonight
Al I look into your eyes
Feelings much too strong for us not to try
And if by chance we lose this fight
Darling we still have tonight
So when I'm far away
I will always be with you
You will never be alone
So if you feel the need
Take my hand and share this night
It will be eternity
See I've been broken down by empty promises
Like a sky without a star
And I've been having doubts that I could feel again
But I believe that I'm in love
Lucky To Be Here Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
All my life has been a show that never ends
Made a lot of music and I've made a lot of friends
I've got two children but I've never had a wife
Don't mean to bore you with the story of my life
I've been criticized for all the things I've done
But I must admit that I did it all in fun
The Lord has blessed me with a song a day to sing
It's been a long hard road but I wouldn't change a thing
And oh
I'm just lucky to be here
I can't believe I got this far
And if I stopped along the way to fight a tear
I'm sorry
But I thought I saw my dream
There's been so much that I've learned along the way
I learned that love is color blind and how to pray
And that emotions were controlled from deep inside
But what I learned the most was how to swallow pride
Oh, I'm just lucky to be here
I can't believe I got this far
And if I stopped along the way to fight a tear
I'm sorry
But I thought I saw my dream
Oh, I'm just lucky to be here
I'd gladly stay a thousand years
Breathe your love into this union of souls
And I'll just write the words
Made a lot of music and I've made a lot of friends
I've got two children but I've never had a wife
Don't mean to bore you with the story of my life
I've been criticized for all the things I've done
But I must admit that I did it all in fun
The Lord has blessed me with a song a day to sing
It's been a long hard road but I wouldn't change a thing
And oh
I'm just lucky to be here
I can't believe I got this far
And if I stopped along the way to fight a tear
I'm sorry
But I thought I saw my dream
There's been so much that I've learned along the way
I learned that love is color blind and how to pray
And that emotions were controlled from deep inside
But what I learned the most was how to swallow pride
Oh, I'm just lucky to be here
I can't believe I got this far
And if I stopped along the way to fight a tear
I'm sorry
But I thought I saw my dream
Oh, I'm just lucky to be here
I'd gladly stay a thousand years
Breathe your love into this union of souls
And I'll just write the words
As Long As We're Together Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
Here we are we're on this ride to nowhere
On this road to somewhere we have never been before
We'll be all right
As long as we're together
We're like the little people from the little places
All together searching for that bigger constellation
You know we're all right
As long as we're together
[Chorus:]
What a union we could be if we just had the power
What a moment we could seize in our finest hour
Everything in time happens in this light
Though our hands are tied
We will still survive
Well here we are and we've climbed the mountain
Now we've seen the river but there's poison in the water
Say it's all right
If we just drink together
Well we've seen the road and we've seen the signs
Still we march in single file like cattle to the slaughter
Yes it's all right
As long as we're together
[Chorus:]
What a union we could be if we just had the power
What a moment we could seize in our finest hour
Everything in time happens in this light
Though our hands are tied
We will still survive
We will still survive
We can stay alive
Well here we are on this ride to nowhere
Road to somewhere we have never been before
We'll be all right
As long as we're together
And we'll be all right
As long as we're together
We'll be all right
As long as we're together
[Chorus:]
WHAT a union we could be if we just had the power
What a moment we could seize in our finest hour
Everything in time happens in this light
Though our hands are tied
We will still survive
Taste the music of my soul
Tell me that it's sour
You could rain on my parade
But you'll never kill the flower
Feed me all the lies
Waiting for rewind
Choke us w/ your vines
We will still survive
We will still survive
We can stay alive
On this road to somewhere we have never been before
We'll be all right
As long as we're together
We're like the little people from the little places
All together searching for that bigger constellation
You know we're all right
As long as we're together
[Chorus:]
What a union we could be if we just had the power
What a moment we could seize in our finest hour
Everything in time happens in this light
Though our hands are tied
We will still survive
Well here we are and we've climbed the mountain
Now we've seen the river but there's poison in the water
Say it's all right
If we just drink together
Well we've seen the road and we've seen the signs
Still we march in single file like cattle to the slaughter
Yes it's all right
As long as we're together
[Chorus:]
What a union we could be if we just had the power
What a moment we could seize in our finest hour
Everything in time happens in this light
Though our hands are tied
We will still survive
We will still survive
We can stay alive
Well here we are on this ride to nowhere
Road to somewhere we have never been before
We'll be all right
As long as we're together
And we'll be all right
As long as we're together
We'll be all right
As long as we're together
[Chorus:]
WHAT a union we could be if we just had the power
What a moment we could seize in our finest hour
Everything in time happens in this light
Though our hands are tied
We will still survive
Taste the music of my soul
Tell me that it's sour
You could rain on my parade
But you'll never kill the flower
Feed me all the lies
Waiting for rewind
Choke us w/ your vines
We will still survive
We will still survive
We can stay alive
Walk Away Lyrics – Blessid Union of Souls
No one has all the answers
For the question on your mind
You just want to know the reasons
The reasons why
No one said it would be easy
Because no rose garden is in this life
They can't stop you from believing
You can turn back time
In your mind
Deep in side you here 'em say
Live your life and walk away
Don't wait any longer
Cause it won't make you stronger
Live your life and walk away
Every passing day reminds you
Every memory seems to find your pain
But hopefully tears will wash behind you
Just like rain
Every road you take to mending
Seems a million miles away
Though the hurt seems never ending
It can walk away
You can fly away
Deep in side you here 'em say
Live your life and walk away
Don't wait any longer
Cause it won't make you stronger
Live your life and walk away
Deep in side you here 'em say
Live your life and walk away
Don't wait any longer
Cause it won't make you stronger
Live your life and walk away
For the question on your mind
You just want to know the reasons
The reasons why
No one said it would be easy
Because no rose garden is in this life
They can't stop you from believing
You can turn back time
In your mind
Deep in side you here 'em say
Live your life and walk away
Don't wait any longer
Cause it won't make you stronger
Live your life and walk away
Every passing day reminds you
Every memory seems to find your pain
But hopefully tears will wash behind you
Just like rain
Every road you take to mending
Seems a million miles away
Though the hurt seems never ending
It can walk away
You can fly away
Deep in side you here 'em say
Live your life and walk away
Don't wait any longer
Cause it won't make you stronger
Live your life and walk away
Deep in side you here 'em say
Live your life and walk away
Don't wait any longer
Cause it won't make you stronger
Live your life and walk away
Who's To Blame? lyrics - blessid union of souls
She is gone, seventeen
And her son, just turned three
Lives off of society and contempt
Feeds her son pays the rent
And I wonder who's to blame
And I wonder who's to blame
Daddy loves his little girl
She's his pride, his joy, & his world
But they took her from his life
She's been missing since July
And I wonder who's to blame
And I wonder who's to blame
He takes a promise that he'll lead the way
Finally to stay tomorrow
Shine a light upon virgin roads to peace
Where no one dares to go
Let's come together all as one
For to change this road that we're on
There's an answer it's called love
But we nailed it to the cross, along time ago
And I wonder who's to blame
And I wonder who's to blame
And I wonder wonder who's to blame
And I wonder who's to blame
For the suffering of the children
For the lying and the killing
Who's to blame
For the hurting and the sorrow
And a hopeless tomorrow
Tell me who's to blame
I know we can make it better
We can always come together
Cause there's evil everywhere
And it's much more than I can bear
There's a cross that we can carry
And a burden we can bare
Still it all remains the same
Somebody tell be who's to blame
Who's to blame
And her son, just turned three
Lives off of society and contempt
Feeds her son pays the rent
And I wonder who's to blame
And I wonder who's to blame
Daddy loves his little girl
She's his pride, his joy, & his world
But they took her from his life
She's been missing since July
And I wonder who's to blame
And I wonder who's to blame
He takes a promise that he'll lead the way
Finally to stay tomorrow
Shine a light upon virgin roads to peace
Where no one dares to go
Let's come together all as one
For to change this road that we're on
There's an answer it's called love
But we nailed it to the cross, along time ago
And I wonder who's to blame
And I wonder who's to blame
And I wonder wonder who's to blame
And I wonder who's to blame
For the suffering of the children
For the lying and the killing
Who's to blame
For the hurting and the sorrow
And a hopeless tomorrow
Tell me who's to blame
I know we can make it better
We can always come together
Cause there's evil everywhere
And it's much more than I can bear
There's a cross that we can carry
And a burden we can bare
Still it all remains the same
Somebody tell be who's to blame
Who's to blame
