Chorus:
It's gotta be love
That keeps us together
It's gotta be a feeling from the heart
It's gotta be love
It must last forever
Or I won't let the fire start
It's gotta be love

I don't have time for a part time love affair
I can't pretend it's love when it's not really there
So don't you lead me on if you don't really care
It's gotta be real
And I got a feeling

Repeat Chorus

I can't just let you take my love and walk away
And you must know that love is not a game I play
So when you say you love me
You better mean just what you say

It's gotta be real
And I got a feeling

Repeat Chorus twice

. . .


Use to be (Use to be)
Love was mean to me
Every love I tried my heart cried that won't do
Now you see (Now you see)
Love's been good to me I guess my love was waiting just for you
You and me (You and me) (You and me)
Go so well as we
Fit right to a T
Can't you see we do

Gotta say (Gotta say) (Gotta say)
Your love's got a way
Of making me glad
I waited just for you
I should have known
That my heart could not be wrong

Gotta say (Gotta say) (Gotta say)
Your love's got a way
Of making me glad
I waited just for you
I should have known
That my heart could not be wrong

Gotta say (Gotta say) (Gotta say)
Your love's got a way
Of making me glad
I waited just for you
I should have known
That my heart could not be wrong

Gotta say (Gotta say) (Gotta say)
Your love's got a way
Of making me glad
I waited just for you
I should have known
That my heart could not be wrong

He believes in the family unit
The union of man and wife
He believes that you stand before God
For better, for worse and beyond this life

He believes that a ring on his finger
Is something to be proud of
For all of the world to witness
That he is committed to this love

He wants to get married

He'll build a house in the country
Where he'll watch his children grow
And teach them the values of something
That most people never even know

He wants to get married

I never thought I would be so blessed
To know a man like this
He's everything, everything I believe that a man should be

And when he is called to his maker
He wants to go to his grave
With his final remembrance of this earth
To be one last look at his wife's face

He wants to get married
He wants to get married
Oh, he wants to get married

But not to me

. . .


Preacher man talking about the end of time
Well, Lord knows I'm ready, it don't worry my mind
You see, I ain't afraid of nothing because I believe
I've got a sky full of angels watching over me

You can take my possessions
You can take all my gold
Nobody but Jesus gonna take my soul

Walk through darkness
I don't need no light
My faith in Jesus gonna be my guide
You see, I ain't afraid of nothing because I believe
I've got a sky full of of angels watching over me

You can take me for granted
You can take all my gold
Nobody but Jesus gonna take my soul

River's rising but I got no doubt
My sweet Savior's gonna pull me out
You see, I ain't afraid of nothing because I believe
I've got a sky full of angels watching over me

You can take my possessions
You can take all my gold
Nobody but Jesus gonna take my soul

I ain't afraid of nothing because I believe
I've got a sky full of angels watching over me

I ain't afraid of nothing because I believe
I've got a sky full of angels watching over me

The first time I laid my eyes on you I knew,
We'd spend this life side by side.
I still feel the same though your so far away,
I swear that you'll always be my....

Forever love
I promise you,
someday we'll be together,
Forever love.
I won't give up.
No matter what...
I'll be waiting for you
Forever love...

Minutes and hours and years may go by,
but my heart knows nothing of time.
So don't cry just keep me right there in your dreams.
And hold on to these words of mine...

Forever love
I promise you,
someday we'll be together,
Forever love.
I won't give up.
No matter what...
I'll be waiting for you
Forever love...

...is a road to our destiny,
nothing can change what is meant to be...

Forever love...

I won't give up.
No matter what...
I'll be waiting for you
Forever love...

I'll be waiting for you
Forever love...

Forever love...

The stars are way out of reach, they all said
Those are crazy schemes that fill your fool head
But it was clear from the moment we met
We could prove them wrong

All my life I heard that same old story
Dare to dream and you'll just be sorry
I might have given up my shot at glory
But then you came along

Chorus:
We're not expecting this to go down easy
We're not expecting any sweet dreams
Sure thing
But with a little luck
Could be we'll be
Winding up the way we planned
Heading for our promised land
Holding one last good hand

Something's calling us I know you hear it
Day by day I feel us growing near it
But once you find a kindred spirit
There's nothing you can do

Oh, baby I'm not saying we won't ever stumble
Some days will be rough and tumble
You and I know that life's a gamble
But I'll
Bet mine on you

Repeat Chorus:

. . .


You spend an awful lot of time in Massachusetts
Seems Like every other week you've got a meeting waiting there
Business must be booming or could something else
Be moving in the air up there

You say that its important for our future
An executive on his way up has got to play the part
Each time duty calls you got to give it all
You've got with all your heart

When whoever's in New England is through with you
And Boston finds better things to do
You know its not too late 'cause you'll always have a place to come back to
When whoever's in New Englands through with you

I hear the winter time up north can last forever
Ive been told its beautiful to see this time of year
They say the snow can blind you till the world you left behind
Just disappears I hear

I packed your bags and left them in the hallway
But before you leave again theres just one thing you outta know
When the icy winds blow through you remember that its me
Who feels the cold most of all

When whoever's in New England is through with you
And Boston finds better things to do
You know its not too late 'cause you'll always have a place to come back to
When whoever's in New Englands through with you

. . .


I watch you as you wake and rub your eyes and try to hide them from the

morning sun
I whisper how ya doing and you smile and say so tenderly good morning
hun

Chorus:
Last night you made his memory fade a little
You helped me see how love can still be right
I wish you didn't have to leave
If you just knew how much I need
Last night, ev'ry night

I know you have to catch a plane to Memphis
And you mentioned it's an early flight
You start to pack
And while I comb my hair
I stare at you and think about last night

Cause (Repeat Chorus)

I slip into my robe to go make coffee
You come in and pull me close to you
And as I feel your tender kiss
I whisper can't Memphis wait a day or two
Cause (Repeat Chorus)

Cause (Repeat Chorus)

. . .


The kid down the street mowes the grass every week
The neighbor next door fixed the roof where it leaked
Job's going fine and the bills are all paid
And everyone thinks that I'm doing OK

There's a guy down at work
He's asked me out once or twice
I haven't said yes
But I'm thinking I might
And on my way home I thought I saw you walk by
If only I could get you out of my mind

What in the world am I gonna do about you
Oh your memory keeps coming back
From out of the blue
Oh well I try
And I try
But I still can't believe that we're through
So tell me what in the world am I gonna do about you
What am I gonna do about you

I went to the store
But it wasn't much fun
It doesn't take long when you're shopping for one
Standing in line I thought I saw you walk in
And that's when it started all over again

What in the world am I gonna do about you
Oh your memory keeps coming back
From out of the blue
Oh well I try
And I try
But I still can't believe that we're through
So tell me what in the world am I gonna do about you
What am I gonna do about you
Darling what am I gonna do about you

. . .


Three wise men, a shining star
A mother and a father who had come so far
How could they know about their son
And the miracle he'd become
That he held the soul of man
In his tiny little hands

Chorus:
One child one day
And the universe will never be the same
From Bethlehem
Cause the angels' voices rejoicing in his name
Oh, and I believe with all my heart
That he will show the way
And you and I will meet
One child one day

A small white church, a mountainside
Cathedrals filled with music, and golden light
Oh, we gather everywhere
For the peace that's always there
For the story that is told
Of a birth so long ago

Repeat Chorus
