Shadows falling, baby
we stand alone
Out on the street anybody you meet
got a heartache of their own
(it oughta be illegal)
Make it a crime to be lonely or sad
(it oughta be illegal)
You got a reason for livin'
you battle on with the
love you're livin' on
You gotta be mine
we take it away
It's gotta be night and day
just a matter of time
(chorus)
And we got nothing to be guilty of
Our love will climb any mountain
near or far, we are
And we never let it end
we are devotion
And we got nothing to be sorry for
our love is one in a million
Eyes can see that we got
a highway to the sky
I don't wanna hear your goodbye
Aaah!
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh
Pulse's racing, darling
how grand we are
Little by little we meet in the middle
there's danger in the dark
(it oughta be illegal)
Make it a crime to be out in the cold
(it oughta be illegal)
You got a reason for livin'
You battle on with the
love you're buildin' on
You gotta be mine
we take it away
It's gotta be night and day
just a matter of time
Love soft as an easy chair
Love fresh as the morning air
One love that is shared by two
I have found with you
Like a rose under the April snow
I was always certain love would grow
Love ageless and evergreen
seldom seen by two
You and I will make each night a first
every day a beginning
Spirits rise and their dance is unrehearsed
They warm and excite us
'cause we have the brightest love
Two lives that shine as one
morning glory and midnight sun
Time we've learned to sail above
Time won't change the meaning of one love
ageless and ever evergreen
Don't tell me not to live, just sit and putter
Life's candy and the sun's a ball of butter
Don't bring around a cloud to rain on my parade
Don't tell me not to fly, I've simply got to
If someone takes a, spill it's me and not you
Who told you you're allowed to rain on my parade
I'll march my band out, I'll beat my drum
And if I'm fanned out, your turn at bat, sir
At least I didn't fake it hat, sir
I guess, I didn't make it but whether
I'm the rose of sheer perfection
Or freckle on the nose of life's complexion
The cinder or the shiny apple of its eye
I gotta fly once, I gotta try once
Only can die once, right, sir?
Ooh, life is juicy, juicy and you'll see
I'm gonna have my bite, sir
Get ready for me, love 'cause I'm a comer
I simply gotta march, my heart's a drummer
Don't bring around a cloud to rain on my parade
I'm gonna live and live now
Get what I want, I know how
One roll for the whole she-bang
One throw, that bell will go clang
Eye on the target and wham
One shot, one gun shot, and bam
Hey, Mister Arnstein, here I am
I'll march my band out, I will beat my drum
And if I'm fanned out, your turn at bat, sir
At least I didn't fake it, hat, sir
Guess I didn't make it
Get ready for me, love 'cause I'm a comer
I simply gotta march, my heart's a drummer
No,nobody, no, nobody, is ever gonna rain on my parade
I still can remember
the last time I cried
I was holding you and loving you
knowing it would end
I never felt so good
yet felt so bad
You're the one I love
And what makes it sad
is you don't belong to me
And I can remember
the last time I lied
I was holding you and telling you
we could still be friends
Tried to let you go
but I can't, you know
And even though I'm not with you
I need you so
but you don't belong to me
(chorus)
Coming in and out of your life
isn't easy when there
are so many nights
I can't hold you
and I've told you
These feelings are
so hard to find
Coming in and out of your life
will never free me
'Cause I don't need to touch you
to feel you, it's so real with you
I just can't get you out of my mind
But I can remember
the last time we tried
Each needing more than we could give
And knowing all the time
a stronger love
just can't be found
Even though at times this crazy world
is turning upside down
You'll always belong to me
Someone to hold you too close
Someone to hurt you too deep
Someone to sit in your chair
And ruin your sleep
And make you aware of being alive
Someone to need you too much
Someone to know you too well
Someone to pullyou up short
And put you through hell
And give you supprt for being
alive - being alive
Make me alive, make me confused
Mock me with praise, let me be used
Vary my days, bul alone is alone,
not alive.
Somebody hold me too close
Somebody force me to care
Somebody make me come through
I'll alway be there
As frightened as you of being alive
Being alive, being alive
Someone you have to let in
Someone whose feelings you spare
Someone who, like it or not
Will want you to share a little, a lot
of being alive
Make me alive, make me confused
Mock me with praise, let me be used
Vary my days, but alone is alone,
not alive
Somebody crowd me with love
Somebody force me to care
Somebody make me com through
I'll always be there
As frightened as you to help us survive
Being alive, being alive,
Being alive, being alive.
Hear our prayer
We have sinned before Thee
Have compassion upon us and upon our children
Help us bring an end to pestilence, war, and famine
Cause all hate and oppression to vanish from the earth
Inscribe us for blessing in the Book Of Life
Let the new year be a good year for us
Tell me where
Where is it written
What is it I meant to be?
That I can't dare...
It all began the day I found..
That from my window I could only see
A piece of sky.
I stepped outside and looked around.
I never dreamed it was so wide
Or even half as high.
The time had come
(Papa, can you hear me?)
To try my wings
(Papa, are you near me?)
And even thought it seemed at any moment I could fall,
I felt the most,
(Papa, can you see me?)
Amazing things,
(Can you understand me?)
The things you can't imagine
if you've never flown at all.
Though it's safer to stay on the ground,
Sometimes where danger lies
There the sweetest of pleasures are found.
No matter where I go,
There'll be memories that tug at my sleeve,
But there will also be
More to question, yet more to believe..
Oh tell me where?
Where is the someone who will turn and look at me?
And want to share
My ev'ry sweet-imagined possibility?
The more I live - the more I learn.
The more I learn - the more I realize
The less I know.
Each step I take -
(Papa, I've a voice now!)Each page I turn -
(Papa, I've a choice now!)Each mile I travel only means
The more I have to go.
What's wrong with wanting more?
If you can fly - then soar!
With all there is - why settle for
just a piece of sky?
Papa, I can hear you...
Papa, I can see you...
Papa, I can feel you...
Papa, watch me fly!
A rhapsody!
Contestants in disguise
A nation of desire
But who will win the prize?
The people stand united,
Reluctantly aligned
Copying and lying
Are the favorite past-time.
You've got a chance
To confront the world today
Desperate romance
Is the curse of castaways
What good is skill
If you don't make it to the dance?
Despite circumstance
You've got a chance!
Common life, depicted on afternoon tv,
Is spiked to give the
Miserable a vogue identity
Hate your neighbors,
Cheat your friends,
They don't discriminate
Popularity and fame don't care
If you're a reprobate
You've got a chance
To confront the world today
Desperate romance
Is the curse of castaways
What good is skill
If you don't make it to the dance?
Despite circumstance
You've got a chance!
I'm tired of all this
Shakespearean misinformation
I want to win the game
You've got the right intentions
But who's got time to think?
You've got a noon appointment,
You've got to hit the links
You're talking in the stratosphere,
You're curled up on the floor
With such a wealth of information,
Why are you so poor?
You've got a chance
To be relevant today
Desperate romance
Is the curse of castaways
What good is skill
If you don't make it to the dance?
(don't you believe what the
wise men have to say)
despite circumstance
you've got a chance
