Blessid Union Of Souls Album

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
Til your everything is gone
You need someone to show you how to live again

I wanna be there when you're feeling high
I wanna be there when you wanna die
I'm gonna light your fire
Gonne feel your flame
I wanna be there when you go insane
I wanna be there when you're feeling' down
And I'll be there when your head is spinnin' round
Gonna be your lover
Gonna be your friend
I wanna be there til the end

You wouldn't know that I was there
Cause I have been there all the time
And if I had my way I'd hold you in my arms
And leave this madness all behind

Cause you got so much to give
But you throw it all away
And all you got to show for who you are is pain

And I've got so much to give
If you'd only let me in
I'm gonna take the time to show you I'm a friend
You'll believe in love again

I wanna be there in the pouring rain
I wanna be there when you call my name
I'm gonna light your fire
Gonna feel your flame
I wanna be there when you go insane
II wanna be there when I'm outta town
And when your whole damn world is crashing down
I'm gonna be your lover
Gonna be your friend
I wanna be there til the end
Cause you don't know what you have
Til your everything is gone
You need someone to show you how to live again

And I've got so much to give
If you'd only let me in
I'm gonna take the time to show you I'm a friend
You'll believe again

I wanna be there when your baby cries
I wanna be there when they tell you lies
I'm gonna light your fire
Gonna feel your flame
I wanna be there when you go insane
I wanna be there when your nights are long
And when you're feeling like you don't belong
Gonna be your lover
Gonna be your friend
Gonna be there til the end

I'm gonna be there in the morning
I'm gonna be there in the night
I'm gonna be there to make you strong when
you're tired
I'm gonne be there when you want me
I wanna be there when you don't
Gonna be your lover
Gonna be your friend
Gonna be there til the end

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

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

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

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 is
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

Put your head on my shoulder
No need to worry 'bout a thing
I'll be the cure for your lonliness
I'll make you feel like you're whole again
And you can always count on me wherever I may be
When this world's got you feelin' blue
Call on me and I'll run to you
My friend

On my wings we both can fly
Cause there's no burden big enough
And when you're hurtin' baby so am I and we'll both cry
There's nothing stronger than our love
And you can always count on me, wherever I may be
Oh I'm gonna find the way
To a better day
My friend

So let me be the one to save ya
Cause it's the least that I can do
And you don't have to return the favor
Cause I promise you
Oh we're gonna make it through
My friend

Put your head on mny shoulder
No need to worry bout a thing
If you need me I'll be there in a hurry
Call on me, time and time again
Cause you're my friend

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

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

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

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

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
No in betweens just
Peace and love

These words did not come easily
Still you know I had to write them down
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

Peace and love
Tears of joy
Kindness of strangers
All of your roads
Paved in gold
By guardian angels
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
No one to blame it on because
I'm on your side
No question of pride

Peace and love
Tears of joy
Kindness of strangers
All of your roads
Paved in gold
By guardian angels
Wherever you may be in this world
My salutation says it all
May you always have enough
Peace and Love
