Ain't Nobody (Joy)
04:58
|

I like to feel the breeze as it serenades my soul
Live my life with ease, surrender all control
Oh and the clouds may come, try to steal away my sunshine
But ain't nobody gonna take my joy
I like to hear the birds as they welcome to a new day
They speak without words, tell me that everything's okay
I open up my window, so I can hear their melody, they're singin',
"Ain't nobody gonna take my joy"

For You

Oh my love, I miss your crooked smile
And it hurts so bad that I haven’t seen you in a while
And I want you to know you’re a part of who I am
I find myself looking at your picture whenever I get the chance
Oh I hate the distance
Know that I’ll be with you all the time
Though I hate the distance
Darling I’ll be with you all the time
I hope those beautiful eyes never have to see a day of sadness (Ohh)
May the only tears you cry be from laughing too hard
How I pray for your delicate heart
Take my word the years don’t linger on
So take your share, before they’re gone
All your dreams, they’ll follow you forever
So promise me you’ll look them in the eyes and let ‘em lead you on.
Oh I hate the distance
Know that I’ll be with you all the time
Though I hate the distance
Darling I’ll be with you all the time
I hope those beautiful eyes never have to see a day of sadness (Ohh)
May the only tears you cry be from laughing too hard
How I pray for your delicate heart

Summertime Dream
03:43
|

The evening slips away like velvet sand running through my fingers
The sun he waves goodbye, and as he leaves says “see ya tomorrow”
The gentle breeze tickles my soul, Jack serenades on the radio
So pull up a chair, we got room; we’re not leaving anytime soon
So throw another log in the fire, my friend
It’s a beautiful night it doesn’t have to end
We’ve got memories to make, and to bod farewell to another day
So take all the time you need
Close your eyes, breathe with me
We can chase the sea, oh you and I, we’re free
In our summertime dream
The rain begins to fall
It kisses my cheek I don’t mind at all
The air is warm and kind
Oh I’d rather not go inside.
The days are long and easy
They dance around your heart
It feels so good to be living , yeah, ‘cause the living ain’t hard at all
So throw another log in the fire, my friend
It’s a beautiful night it doesn’t have to end
We’ve got memories to make, and to bod farewell to another day
So take all the time you need
Close your eyes, breathe with me
We can chase the sea, oh you and I, we’re free
In our summertime dream
{Whistle}
So take all the time you need
Close your eyes, breathe with me
We can chase the sea, oh you and I, we’re free
In our summertime dream
Throw another log in the fire

Jericho
04:30
|

|
For years I had a gate around my heart
Brick by brick, I built the strongest guard
Like Jericho, my walls would keep me safe
But on you marched, with unshakable faith
Down they crumbled
The city of my soul is in your hands
The army of my fears doesn't stand a fighting chance
Against the gentleness in your eyes
I know you're just a man
I don't expect the promised land
Just a promise that you'll never leave my side
Don't know how long it's been since I felt the sun
Hard to feel anything at all with that armor on
Now I'm free to dance, free to run
All my shame is good and gone
Down they crumbled
The city of my soul is in your hands
The army of my fears didn't stand a fighting chance
Against the gentleness in your eyes
I know you're just a man
I don't expect the promised land
Just a promise that you'll never leave my side
Oh I know that you'll never leave my side

Empty
03:22
|

|
I feel empty, and it scares me
They say just tell the truth and you can’t go wrong
So I’ve been tryin’, and it takes all of my strength
But I feel empty, so empty today
And I feel lost, with a hundred roads before me
I’ve been praying over every step I take
So I keep moving, though it takes all of my strength
But I feel empty, too empty today
Oooh
Though I’m afraid, and nothing really makes sense
The path that’s set before is ever straight
So I will go, and though my vision’s blurred
I will trust the hand that leads me on
Oooh

I Will Keep On
04:00
|

|
I could watch the rain 'till tomorrow
Couple hours from the night I could borrow
Write out my troubles on the window
Watch them fade away
These sorrows settle on my shoulders
No rest for the weary or the sober
It's like a wall that I can't knock over
I wanna pull the covers to my head
But I have to put my feet on the floor
Even if my heart can't take anymore
With hope as deep as the day is long
I will keep on keepin' on
I will keep on keepin' on
I will keep on
I will keep on keepin' on
I will keep on
Like a flower underneath the snow
I will take my time to grow
Pushing past the unknown
Till the light finds my face
And these thoughts that consume my mind
Their power will fade in time
They will not drain this life of min
Not if I can help it
But I have to put my feet on the floor
Even if my heart can't take anymore
With hope as deep as the day is long
I will keep on keepin' on
I will keep on keepin' on
I will keep on
I will keep on keepin' on
I will keep on x2
oohh
But I have to put my feet on the floor
Even if my heart can't take anymore
With hope as deep as the day is long
I will keep on keepin' on
I will keep on keepin' on
I will keep on
I will keep on keepin' on
I will keep on x2
