  • Along the Road

    Dan Fogelberg

    Joy at the start, fear in the journey
    Joy in the coming home
    A part of the heart gets lost in the learning
    Somewhere along the road

    Along the road your path may wander
    A pilgrim’s faith may fail
    Absence makes the heart grow stronger
    Darkness obscures the trail

    Cursing the quest, courting disaster
    Measureless nights forebode
    Moments of rest, glimpses of laughter
    Are treasured along the road

    Along the road your steps may stumble
    Your thoughts may start to stray
    But through it all a heart held humble
    Levels and lights your way

    Joy at the start, fear in the journey
    Joy in the coming home
    A part of the heart gets lost in the learning
    Somewhere along the road

    Somewhere along the road
    Somewhere along the road

  • Always on My Mind

    Wayne Thompson, Mark James, Johnny Christopher

    Maybe I didn’t treat you
    Quite as good as I should have
    Maybe I didn’t love you
    Quite as often as I could have
    Little things I should have said and done
    I just never took a time

    You were always on my mind
    (You were always on my mind)
    You were always on my mind

    Maybe I didn’t hold you
    All those lonely, lonely times
    And I guess I never told you
    I’m so happy that you’re mine
    If I make you feel second best
    Girl, I’m sorry, I was blind

    You were always on my mind
    (You were always on my mind)
    You were always on my mind

    Tell me, tell me that your sweet love hasn’t died
    Give me, give me one more chance
    To keep you satisfied, satisfied

    Little things I should have said and done
    I just never took the time

    You were always on my mind
    (You were always on my mind)
    You were always on my mind

  • Angel

    Peter Franklin, Barry Fitzgibbon, Anthony Newton

    I got a call the other day
    It was my sister Carolyn, sayin’
    “Aretha, come by when you can
    I’ve got somethin’ that I wanna say”

    And when I got there she said
    “You know rather than go through a long drawn out thing
    I think the melody on the box will help me explain”

    Gotta find me an angel
    To fly away with me
    Gotta find me an angel
    Ooo and set me free

    My heart is without a home
    I don’t want to be alone
    I gotta find me an angel
    In my life, in my life

    Too long have I loved
    So unattached within
    So much that I know
    That I need somebody so
    So I’ll just go on
    Hoping that I find me someone
    Gotta find me an angel in my life
    In my life…in my life

    I know there must be someone
    Somewhere for me
    Oh I lived too long
    Without the love of someone
    And there’s no misery
    Ooooh oooh like the misery
    I feel in me

    I gotta find me an angel in
    In my life
    (You’ll meet him now don’t you worry)
    In my life
    (Keep lookin’ and just keep cookin’)
    In my life
    (He’ll be there, now don’t you worry)
    In my life.

  • Anyway

    Martina McBride, Brad Warren and Brett Warren

    You can spend your whole life buildin’
    Somethin’ from nothin’
    One storm can come and blow it all away
    Build it anyway

    You can chase a dream
    That seems so out of reach
    And you know it might not ever come your way
    Dream it anyway

    [chorus:]

    God is great, but sometimes life ain’t good
    When I pray it doesn’t always turn out like I think it should
    But I do it anyway
    I do it anyway

    This world’s gone crazy and it’s hard to believe
    That tomorrow will be better than today
    Believe it anyway

    You can love someone with all your heart
    For all the right reasons
    And in a moment they can choose to walk away
    Love ’em anyway

    [chorus]

    You can pour your soul out singing
    A song you believe in
    That tomorrow they’ll forget you ever sang
    Sing it anyway
    Yeah, sing it anyway

    I sing, I dream, I love
    Anyway
    Yeah

  • Bridge Over Troubled Water

    Paul Simon

    When you’re weary, feeling small,
    When tears are in your eyes, I will dry them all;
    I’m on your side. When times get rough
    And friends just can’t be found,
    Like a bridge over troubled water
    I will lay me down.
    Like a bridge over troubled water
    I will lay me down.

    When you’re down and out,
    When you’re on the street,
    When evening falls so hard
    I will comfort you.
    I’ll take your part.
    When darkness comes
    And pain is all around,
    Like a bridge over troubled water
    I will lay me down.
    Like a bridge over troubled water
    I will lay me down.

    Sail on silver girl,
    Sail on by.
    Your time has come to shine.
    All your dreams are on their way.
    See how they shine.
    If you need a friend
    I’m sailing right behind.
    Like a bridge over troubled water
    I will ease your mind.
    Like a bridge over troubled water
    I will ease your mind.

  • Bright Eyes

    Mike Batt

    Is it a kind of dream,
    Floating out on the tide,
    Following the river of death downstream?
    Oh, is it a dream?

    There’s a fog along the horizon,
    A strange glow in the sky,
    And nobody seems to know where you go,
    And what does it mean?
    Oh, is it a dream?

    Bright eyes,
    Burning like fire.
    Bright eyes,
    How can you close and fail?
    How can the light that burned so brightly
    Suddenly burn so pale?
    Bright eyes.

    Is it a kind of shadow,
    Reaching into the night,
    Wandering over the hills unseen,
    Or is it a dream?

    There’s a high wind in the trees,
    A cold sound in the air,
    And nobody ever knows when you go,
    And where do you start,
    Oh, into the dark.

    Bright eyes,
    burning like fire.
    Bright eyes,
    how can you close and fail?
    How can the light that burned so brightly
    Suddenly burn so pale?
    Bright eyes.

    Bright eyes,
    burning like fire.
    Bright eyes,
    how can you close and fail?
    How can the light that burned so brightly
    Suddenly burn so pale?
    Bright eyes.

  • Candle in the Wind

    Elton John, Bernie Taupin

    Goodbye Norma Jean
    Though I never knew you at all
    You had the grace to hold yourself
    While those around you crawled
    They crawled out of the woodwork
    And they whispered into your brain
    They set you on the treadmill
    And they made you change your name.

    And it seems to me you lived your life
    Like a candle in the wind
    Never knowing who to cling to
    When the rain set in
    And I would have liked to have known you
    But I was just a kid
    Your candle burned out long before
    Your legend ever did.

    Loneliness was tough
    The toughest role you ever played
    Hollywood created a superstar
    And pain was the price you paid
    Even when you died
    Oh the press still hounded you
    All the papers had to say
    Was that Marilyn was found in the nude.

    And it seems to me you lived your life
    Like a candle in the wind
    Never knowing who to cling to
    When the rain set in
    And I would have liked to have known you
    But I was just a kid
    Your candle burned out long before
    Your legend ever did.

    Goodbye Norma Jean
    Though I never knew you at all
    You had the grace to hold yourself
    While those around you crawled
    Goodbye Norma Jean
    From the young man in the twenty second row
    Who sees you as something more than sexual
    More than just our Marilyn Monroe.

    And it seems to me you lived your life
    Like a candle in the wind
    Never knowing who to cling to
    When the rain set in
    And I would have liked to have known you
    But I was just a kid
    Your candle burned out long before
    Your legend ever did
    Your candle burned out long before
    Your legend ever did.

  • Death is not the End

    Bob Dylan

    When you’re sad and lonely
    And you haven’t got a friend
    Just remember that death is not the end
    And all that you hell sacred
    Falls down and does not bend
    Just remember that death is not the end.

    Not the end, not the end
    Just remember that death is not the end.

    When you’re standing at the cross-roads
    That you cannot comprehend
    Just remember that death is not the end
    And all your dreams have vanished
    And you don’t know what’s up the bend
    Just remember that death is not the end.

    Not the end, not the end
    Just remember that death is not the end.

    When storm clouds gather round you
    And heavy rains descend
    Just remember that death is not the end
    And there’s nowhere there to comfort you
    With a helping hand to lend
    Just remember that death is not the end.

    Not the end, not the end
    Just remember that death is not the end.

    Oh the tree of life is growing
    Where the spirit never dies
    And the bright light of salvation
    Shines in dark and empty skies

    When the cities are on fire
    When the burning flesh of men
    Just remember that death is nt the end
    And you search in vain to find

    Just one law abiding citizen
    Just remember that death is not the end.

    Not the end, not the end
    Just remember that death is not the end.

  • Everything Must Change

    Benard Ighner

    Everything must change
    Nothing stays the same
    Everyone must change
    No one stays the same

    The young become the old
    And mysteries do unfold
    Cause that’s the way of time
    Nothing and no one goes unchanged

    There are not many things in life
    You can be sure of
    Except rain comes from the clouds
    Sun lights up the sky
    And hummingbirds do fly

    Winter turns to spring
    A wounded heart will heal
    But never much too soon
    Yes everything must change

    The young become the old
    And mysteries do unfold
    Cause that’s the way of time
    Nothing and no one goes unchanged

    There are not many things in life
    You can be sure of
    Except rain comes from the clouds
    Sun lights up the sky
    And butterflies do fly

    Rain comes from the clouds
    Sun lights up the sky
    And music
    And music
    Makes me cry

  • Fields of Gold

    Gordon Sumner

    You’ll remember me when the west wind moves
    Among the fields of barley
    You can tell the sun in his jealous sky
    When we walked in fields of gold

    So she took her love for to gaze awhile
    Among the fields of barley
    In his arms she fell as her hair came down
    Among the fields of gold

    Will you stay with me? Will you be my love?
    Among the fields of barley
    And you can tell the sun in his jealous sky
    When we walked in fields of gold

    I never made promises lightly
    And there have been some that I’ve broken
    But I swear in the days still left
    We will walk in fields of gold
    We’ll walk in fields of gold

    I never made promises lightly
    And there have been some that I’ve broken
    But I swear in the days still left
    We will walk in fields of gold
    We’ll walk in fields of gold

    Many years have passed
    Since those summer days
    Among the fields of barley
    See the children run as the sun goes down
    As you lie in fields of gold

    You’ll remember me when the west wind moves
    Among the fields of barley
    You can tell the sun in his jealous sky
    When we walked in fields of gold
    When we walked in fields of gold
    When we walked in fields of gold

  • I Will Remember You

    Sarah McLachlan

    I will remember you
    Will you remember me?
    Don’t let your life pass you by
    Weep not for the memories

    Remember the good times that we had?
    I let them slip away from us when things got bad
    How clearly I first saw you smilin’ in the sun
    Wanna feel your warmth upon me, I wanna be the one

    I will remember you
    Will you remember me?
    Don’t let your life pass you by
    Weep not for the memories

    I’m so tired but I can’t sleep
    Standin’ on the edge of something much too deep
    It’s funny how we feel so much but we cannot say a word
    We are screaming inside, but we can’t be heard

    But I will remember you
    Will you remember me?
    Don’t let your life pass you by
    Weep not for the memories

    I’m so afraid to love you, but more afraid to loose
    Clinging to a past that doesn’t let me choose
    Once there was a darkness, deep and endless night
    You gave me everything you had, oh you gave me light

    And I will remember you
    Will you remember me?
    Don’t let your life pass you by
    Weep not for the memories

    And I will remember you
    Will you remember me?
    Don’t let your life pass you by
    Weep not for the memories

    Or that I’d have to say goodbye to you so fast
    I’m so numb, I can’t feel anymore
    Prayin’ you’d just walk back through that door

    There will be another angel
    Around the throne tonight
    Your love lives on inside of me,
    And I will hold on tight
    It’s not my place to question,
    Only God knows why
    I’m just jealous of the angels
    Around the throne tonight

    You always made my troubles feel so small
    And you were always there to catch me when I’d fall
    In a world where heroes come and go
    Well God just took the only one I know
    So I’ll hold you as close as I can
    Longing for the day, when I see your face again
    But until then

    God must need another angel
    Around the throne tonight
    Your love lives on inside of me
    And I will hold on tight
    It’s not my place to question
    Only God knows why

    Morning has broken,
    Like the first morning,
    Blackbird has spoken
    Like the first bird;
    Praise for the singing,
    Praise for the morning,
    Praise for them springing
    Fresh from the Word.

    Sweet the rain’s new fall,
    Sunlit from heaven,
    Like the first dewfall
    On the first grass;
    Praise for the sweetness,
    Of the wet garden,
    Sprung in completeness
    Where his feet pass.

    Mine is the sunlight,
    Mine is the morning,
    Born of the one light
    Eden saw play;
    Praise with elation,
    Praise every morning,
    God’s re-creation
    Of the new day.

  • My Heart Will Go On

    James Horner, Will Jennings

    Every night in my dreams
    I see you, I feel you
    That is how I know you go on

    Far across the distance
    And spaces between us
    You have come to show you go on

    Near, far, wherever you are
    I believe that the heart does go on
    Once more you open the door
    And you’re here in my heart
    And my heart will go on and on

    Love can touch us one time
    And last for a lifetime
    And never let go till we’re gone

    Love was when I loved you
    One true time I hold to
    In my life we’ll always go on

    Near, far, wherever you are
    I believe that the heart does go on
    Once more you open the door
    And you’re here in my heart
    And my heart will go on and on

    You’re here, there’s nothing I fear
    And I know that my heart will go on
    We’ll stay forever this way
    You are safe in my heart
    And my heart will go on and on.

  • My Way

    Jacques Revaux, Claude Francois, Gilles Thibaut, Paul Anka

    And now, the end is here
    And so I face the final curtain
    My friend, I’ll say it clear
    I’ll state my case, of which I’m certain
    I’ve lived a life that’s full
    I traveled each and ev’ry highway
    And more, much more than this, I did it my way

    Regrets, I’ve had a few
    But then again, too few to mention
    I did what I had to do and saw it through without exemption
    I planned each charted course, each careful step along the byway
    And more, much more than this, I did it my way

    Yes, there were times, I’m sure you knew
    When I bit off more than I could chew
    But through it all, when there was doubt
    I ate it up and spit it out
    I faced it all and I stood tall and did it my way

    I’ve loved, I’ve laughed and cried
    I’ve had my fill, my share of losing
    And now, as tears subside, I find it all so amusing
    To think I did all that
    And may I say, not in a shy way,
    “Oh, no, oh, no, not me, I did it my way”

    For what is a man, what has he got?
    If not himself, then he has naught
    To say the things he truly feels and not the words of one who kneels
    The record shows I took the blows and did it my way!

  • One More Day

    Bobby Wayne Tomberlin

    Last night I had a crazy dream
    A wish was granted just for me
    It could be for anything
    I didn’t ask for money
    Or a mansion in Malibu
    I simply wished, for one more day with you

    One more day
    One more time
    One more sunset, maybe I’d be satisfied
    But then again
    I know what it would do
    Leave me wishing still, for one more day with you

    First thing I’d do, is pray for time to crawl
    Then I’d unplug the telephone
    And keep the TV off
    I’d hold you every second
    Say a million I love you’s
    That’s what I’d do, with one more day with you

    One more day
    One more time
    One more sunset, maybe I’d be satisfied
    But then again
    I know what it would do
    Leave me wishing still, for one more day with you

    Leave me wishing still, for one more day
    Leave me wishing still, for one more day

  • Over the Rainbow

    Harold Arlen, E. Harburgh

    Somewhere over the rainbow way up high
    There’s a land that I heard of once in a lullaby
    Somewhere over the rainbow skies are blue
    And the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true.

    Someday I’ll wish upon a star
    And wake up where the clouds are far
    Behind me
    Where troubles melt like lemon drops
    Away above the chimney tops
    That’s where you’ll find me

    Somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly
    Birds fly over the rainbow. Why then, oh why, can’t I?
    If happy little bluebirds fly
    Beyond the rainbow, why, oh, why can’t I?

  • Something Beautiful Remains

    T. Britten and G. Lyle

    Tears will leave no stains
    Time will ease the pain
    For every life that fades
    Somethin’ beautiful remains

    We’re living in world, stars and dust
    Between heaven and all that surrounds us
    We’re travelers here, spirits passing through
    And the love we give, is all that will endure

    Hey now, what we had is gone
    But I still remember you
    Just like a rose after the rain
    Somethin’ beautiful remains

    Tears will leave no stains
    Time will ease the pain
    For every life that fades
    Somethin’ beautiful remains

    Now the darkness falls
    The sun’s going down
    One by one, the stars are comin’ out
    Tide comes in, washes footprints from the sand
    As one day ends a new day must begin

    Hey now, though we are apart
    You’re forever in my dreams
    Hey now, love is lost again
    Something beautiful remains

    Tears will leave no stains
    Time will ease the pain
    For every life that fades
    Something beautiful remains

    And you wonder sometimes how you carry on
    When you’ve lost the love you knew
    But it’s alright, alright
    To your own heart be true

    Tears will leave no stains
    Time will ease the pain
    For every life that fades
    Something beautiful remains

    Tears will leave no stains
    Time will ease the pain
    For every life that fades
    Something beautiful remains

    Tears will leave no stains
    Time will ease the pain
    For every life that fades
    Something beautiful remains

  • Somewhere Only We Know

    Timothy Rice-Oxley, Tom Chaplin, Richard Hughes

    I walked across an empty land
    I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
    I felt the earth beneath my feet
    Sat by the river and it made me complete

    Oh simple thing, where have you gone?
    I’m getting old and I need something to rely on
    So tell me when you’re gonna let me in
    I’m getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

    I came across a fallen tree
    I felt the branches of it looking at me
    Is this the place we used to love?
    Is this the place that I’ve been dreaming of?

    Oh simple thing, where have you gone?
    I’m getting old and I need something to rely on
    So tell me when you’re gonna let me in
    I’m getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

    And if you have a minute, why don’t we go
    Talk about it somewhere only we know?
    This could be the end of everything
    So why don’t we go somewhere only we know?
    Somewhere only we know

    Oh simple thing, where have you gone?
    I’m getting old and I need someone to rely on
    So tell me when you’re gonna let me in
    I’m getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

    And if you have a minute, why don’t we go
    Talk about it somewhere only we know?
    This could be the end of everything
    So why don’t we go? So why don’t we go?

    Oh, this could be the end of everything
    So why don’t we go somewhere only we know?
    Somewhere only we know

    Christine McVie

    For you, there’ll be no more crying
    For you, the sun will be shining
    And I feel that when I’m with you
    It’s alright, I know it’s right

    To you, I’ll give the world
    To you, I’ll never be cold
    ‘Cause I feel that when I’m with you
    It’s alright, I know it’s right

    And the songbirds are singing
    Like they know the score
    And I love you, I love you, I love you
    Like never before

    And I wish you all the love in the world
    But most of all, I wish it from myself

    And the songbirds keep singing
    Like they know the score
    And I love you, I love you, I love you
    Like never before
    Like never before
    Like never before

    Neil Diamond

    Stones would play inside her head
    And where she slept,
    They made her bed
    And she would ache for love
    And get but stones

    La la la la la la la la la

    Lordy, child
    A good day’s comin’
    And I’ll be there to let the sun in
    And bein’ lost
    Is worth the comin’ home

    La la la la la la la la la on stones

    You and me, a time for planting
    You and me, a harvest granting
    The every prayer ever prayed
    For just two wild flowers that grow

    La la la la la la la la la on stones

  • Tears in Heaven

    Eric Clapton and Will Jennings

    Would you know my name
    If I saw you in heaven?
    Would it be the same
    If I saw you in heaven?

    I must be strong
    And carry on,
    ‘Cause I know I don’t belong
    Here in heaven.

    Would you hold my hand
    If I saw you in heaven?
    Would you help me stand
    If I saw you in heaven?

    I’ll find my way
    Through night and day,
    ‘Cause I know I just can’t stay
    Here in heaven.

    Time can bring you down,
    Time can bend your knees.
    Time can break your heart,
    Have you begging please, begging please.

    Beyond the door,
    There’s peace I’m sure,
    And I know there’ll be no more
    Tears in heaven.

    Would you know my name
    If I saw you in heaven?
    Would it be the same
    If I saw you in heaven?

    I must be strong
    And carry on,
    ‘Cause I know I don’t belong
    Here in heaven.

  • Time to Say Goodbye

    Francesco Sartori, Lucio Quarantotto, Frank Peterson

    When I am alone I sit and dream
    And when I dream the words are missing
    Yes I know that in a room so full of light
    That all the light is missing
    But I don’t see you with me, with me
    Close up the windows, bring the sun to my room
    Through the door you’ve opened
    Close inside of me the light you see
    that you met in the darkness

    Time to say goodbye
    Horizons are never far
    Would I have to find them alone
    without true light of my own with you
    I will go on ships over seas
    that I now know
    No, they don’t exist anymore
    It’s time to say goodbye

    When you were so far away
    I sit alone and dream of the horizon
    Then I know that you are here with me, with me
    Building bridges over land and sea
    Shine a blinding light for you and me
    To see, for us to be

    Time to say goodbye
    Horizons are never far
    Would I have to find them alone
    without true light of my own with you
    I will go on ships over seas
    that I now know
    No, they don’t exist anymore
    It’s time to say goodbye

    So with you I will go
    on ships over seas
    that I now know
    No, they don’t exist anymore
    It’s time to say goodbye
    so with you I will go…
    I love you

  • When I Get Where I'm Going

    George Teren and Rivers Rutherford

    When I get where I’m going
    On the far side of the sky
    The first thing that I’m gonna do
    Is spread my wings and fly

    I’m gonna land beside a lion
    And run my fingers through his mane
    Or I might find out what it’s like
    To ride a drop of rain

    [Chorus]

    Yeah when I get where I’m going
    There’ll be only happy tears
    I will shed the sins and struggles
    I have carried all these years
    And I’ll leave my heart wide open
    I will love and have no fear
    Yeah when I get where I’m going
    Don’t cry for me down here

    I’m gonna walk with my grand daddy
    And he’ll match me step for step
    And I’ll tell him how I missed him
    Every minute since he left
    Then I’ll hug his neck

    [Repeat chorus]

    So much pain and so much darkness
    In this world we stumble through
    All these questions I can’t answer
    So much work to do

    But when I get where I’m going
    And I see my maker’s face
    I’ll stand forever in the light
    Of his amazing grace
    Yeah when I get where I’m going
    There’ll be only happy tears
    Hallelujah
    I will love and have no fear
    When I get where I’m going
    Yeah when I get where I’m going

  • Wind Beneath my Wings

    Jeff Silbar and Larry Henley

    It must have been cold there in my shadow
    To never have sunlight on your face
    You were content to let me shine, that’s your way
    You always walked a step behind

    So I was the one with all the glory
    While you were the one with all the strength
    A beautiful face without a name for so long
    A beautiful smile to hide the pain

    Did you ever know that you’re my hero
    And everything I would like to be?
    I can fly higher than an eagle
    For you are the wind beneath my wings

    It might have appeared to go unnoticed
    But I’ve got it all here in my heart
    I want you to know, I know the truth, of course
    I know it
    I would be nothing without you

    Did you ever know that you’re my hero?
    You’re everything I wish I could be
    I could fly higher than an eagle
    For you are the wind beneath my wings

    Did I ever tell you you’re my hero?
    You’re everything, everything I wish I could be
    Oh, and I, I could fly higher than an eagle
    For you are the wind beneath my wings
    ‘Cause you are the wind beneath my wings

    Oh, the wind beneath my wings
    You, you, you, you are the wind beneath my wings
    Fly, fly, fly away, you let me fly so high
    Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings
    Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings

    Fly, fly, so high against the sky
    So high I almost touch the sky
    Thank you, thank you
    Thank God for you, the wind beneath my wings
