I know it's late but I can't sleep tonight,
'Cause I got something on my mind.
I could try one more time to turn out the light,
But I just can't make myself unwind.
'Cause every time I close my eyes I see your face,
And I find my eyes wide open, and I'm starin' into space.
Some think it's been too long this time,
I can hardly stand another day.
With all the miles and miles between us
Can it be that tomorrow holds a promise
Of joy for you and me?

In A Little While I'll Be On My Way,
So hold on, baby, just-a one more day,
In A Little While I'll Be On My Way, to you.
Oh, yeah.
Come tomorrow I'll be home, and you can be satisfied,
'Cause we can leave this lonely life behind.
In the mornin' I can wake up with a smile
'Cause I'll be on my way back home to you,
Feelin' better by the mile.

In A Little While I'll Be On My Way,
So hold on, baby, just-a one more day,
In A Little While I'll Be On My Way, to you.
In A Little While I'll Be On My Way,
So hold on, baby, just-a one more day.
In A Little While I'll Be On My Way,
So hold on, baby, just-a one more day.

I don't have plans and schemes and I don't have hopes and dreams.I don't have anything since I don't have you.I don't have fond desires and I don't have happy hours.I don't have anything since I don't have you.
I don't have happiness and I guess I never will ever again.When you walked out on me, in walked on misery and he's been here since then.

I don't have love to share and I don't have one who cares.I don't have anything since I don't have you.I don't have love to share and I don't have one who cares.I don't have anything since I don't have you, you, you, you…

Funny how we're all so blind,
Love is gentle, love is kind in the nighttime.
Funny we can be so sad,
It doesn't have to be so bad in the daytime.
You want to know, where do the songs all go in your lifetime?
One of these days we'll go and find out where they stay.

Once upon a lover's song,
There was a boy who sang along in the nighttime.
Once upon a lover's dream,
There was a tale of broken wings in the daytime.
You want to know, where do the songs all go in your lifetime?
One of these days we'll go and find out where they stay.

And I Know, love will come someday.
And I Know, love will find a way.
And I Know, love will come some way.
And I Know, love will change your day.
The songs that I bring, the songs that I sing yeah.

Catch a piece of falling star,
Try to keep it in a jar till the morning.
Catch a summer firefly,
Pray that it'll stay alive till the dawning'.
You want to know, where do the songs all go in your lifetime?
One of these days we'll go and find out where they stay.

And I Know, love will come someday.
And I Know, love will find a way.
And I Know, love will come some way.
And I Know, love will change your day.
The songs that I bring, the songs that I sing
Love will come some day.

And I Know, love will find a way.
And I Know, love will come some way.
And I Know, love will change your day.
And I Know, love will come some day.
And I Know, love will find a way.
And I Know, love will come some way.
And I Know, love will change your day.
And I Know

I heard a nightingale croon last night in town.
I smiled up at the moon, had another round.
You've got to be the prettiest girl I've found,
And I'm gonna Sail On A Rainbow.
I'm gonna dance all night in the rain.
I'll keep on sailin' on a rainbow,
Till I hold you in my arms again.

In sunny spring we were sweethearts
Sleeping in the sand.
Our love was an endless dream,
No one could understand.
Just like pennies from heaven,
I know I cannot fail,
And I'm gonna Sail On A Rainbow.
I'm gonna dance all night in the rain.
I'll keep on sailin' on a rainbow
Till I hold you in my arms again.

So, I'm gonna Sail On A Rainbow.
I'm gonna dance all night in the rain.
I'll keep on sailin' on a rainbow
Till I hold you in my arms, till I hold you in my arms,
Till I hold you in my arms again, till I hold you in my arms again.
Till I hold you in my arms, till I hold you in my arms again.

Ive had many times
I can tell you
Times when innocence Id trade for company
And children saw me crying
I thought Id had my share of that
But these miss you nights
Are the longest

Midnight diamonds
Stud my heaven
Southward burning
Lie the jewels that eye my place
And the warm winds
That embrace me
Jst as surely kissed your face
Yeah these miss you nights
Are the longest

How I miss you
Im not likely to tell
Im a man and cold day light
Buys the pride Id rather sell
All my secrets
Are wasted affair
You know them well

Thinking of my going
How to cut the thread
And leave it all behind
Looking windward for my compass
I take each day as it arrives
But these miss you nights
Are the longest

Lay down all thought of your surrender
Its only me whos killing time
Lay down all dreams and themes once remembered
Its just the same
This miss you game
Yeah these miss you nights
Are the longest

. . .


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

Finally Found A Reason to live,
No words can fill my head.
Finally, here at ease, I'm within
The light that fills my head.
And I Finally Found A Reason to live,
And I never knew the way to begin.

Waiting on a wish in a well,
That day may never come.
I've been known to follow my mind,
Those days are far behind.
And I Finally Found A Reason to live,
And I never knew the way to begin.

But now that I see your face,
My world is a better place.
For how can I ever leave you from my world,
Your world?

Finally found a feeling that's real,
In you, in me, I feel.
Time is just a turn of the wheel,
The way to love revealed.
And I Finally Found A Reason to live,
And I never knew the way to begin.

But now that I see your face,
My world is a better place.
For how can I ever leave you from my world,
Your world?

. . .


Lost again.
I see it in your eyes you feel alone again.
I made it just in time to break your fall again.
You thought you'd come so far, but here we are again.
Down again.
I see it on your face the hope is gone just when,
You thought the pieces fit, but you fell apart again.
And as I was before, here I am again.

But if you could see Beyond The Tears,
You'd know love won't desert you.
To see beyond the tears, you know I'll never hurt you.
To see the sun behind the rain, feel the joy behind the pain.
You know you'll see me standin' right beyond the tears

Once again, I see it in your look, you're feelin' lost again.
And now you are afraid to try your love again,
'Cause this lonely moment feels like the end.

But if you could see Beyond The Tears
You'd know love won't desert you.
To see beyond the tears, you know I'll never hurt you.
To see the sun behind the rain, feel the joy behind the pain.
You know you'll see me standin' right beyond the tears.

When alone turns to lonely, and loneliness to fear,
It's so easy to imagine love will disappear,
But love is always here.
If you could see Beyond The Tears,
You'd know love won't desert you.
To see beyond the tears, you know I'll never hurt you.
To see the sun behind the rain, feel the joy behind the pain.
You know you'll see me standin' right beyond the tears
See me standin' right Beyond The Tears,
See me standin' right Beyond The Tears,
Right Beyond The Tears.

Oh How Happy you have made me,
Oh How Happy you have made me.
I have kissed your lips a thousand times,
And more times than I can count,
I have called you mine.
You have stood by me in my darkest hour.

Oh How Happy you have made me,
Oh How Happy you have made me.
Oh How Happy you have made me,
Oh How Happy you have made me.

Through our years together
We have had stormy weather,
But our love has been so strong,
That's, love, how we carry on.
Oh How Happy you have made me,
Oh How Happy you have made me.
You brought joy in my empty life,
All that was wrong, you made it right.
My love, my love, my love

Oh How Happy you have made me,
Oh How Happy you have made me.
Oh How Happy, Oh How Happy,
Oh How Happy
Oh How Happy you have made me,
Oh How Happy you have made me.
(Repeat and fade)

She doesn't want me, she doesn't care,
I've tried so hard to let her know, but she doesn't see me there.
What else can I do When Someone Doesn't Want You?
The picture's painted, I've been denied,
The artist couldn't fit me in, there wasn't room for me inside.
What else can I do When Someone Doesn't Want You?

When the day is over, the stars are in the sky,
I'll be going, I know that this is good-bye.
No tears will ever take her place,
They'll disappear, but will the memory linger on
After the pain is gone?
On a river, in my boat,
I'll save this sinking heart of mine,
Somehow I will stay afloat.
What else can I do When Someone Doesn't Want You?

When Someone Doesn't Want You, When Someone Doesn't Want You,
(When that someone When she doesn't want you.)
When Someone Doesn't Want You,
(When that someone When she doesn't want you.)
When Someone Doesn't Want You.
(Repeat and Fade)

Far away when the day is raining,
Far away when the sky is blue,
Anytime at all,
Take Me Away from it all.
Take Me Away.

Long ago, where the Western breezes
Used to blow here into my heart,
I would hear you call,
Take Me Away from it all.
Take Me Away. (Take Me Away.)
Take Me Away from it all.
Take Me Away.

(Love is like a melody we simply can't forget,
A sad and happy memory we never shall regret,
The magical duet.)
Far away when the day is sleeping,
Far away where a starry sky waits for you to call,
Take Me Away from it all.
Take Me Away. (Take Me Away.)
Take Me Away from it all.
Take Me Away. (Take Me Away.)
