The Way You Love Me

Verse 1
The day I saw your smile
It took me by surprise
'Cause I just knew that
something was different
Something in your eye
Was pure and undefiled
You had no secret kind of intentions
You won me with your tenderness
I never had to wonder or guess
I want you to know that

Chorus:
I like the way you love me
There's no one in the world I want more
Your life is precious to me
And you're the only one I adore

Verse 2:
You've got the perfect way
Of making me feel safe
And you know just how to amuse me
You take me in your arms
And tell me I belong and
That you're so happy that you found me

You got the love to make it last
You make me feel important and blessed
I need you to know that

Chorus:
I like the way you love me
There's no one in the world I want more
Your life is so precious to me
And you're the only one I adore

If I Could

Verse 1:
If I could just
Handle it
Than I wouldn't be
Living with it
If I could just
Step on the track
Be going on
And never look back

Pre Chorus:
But you keep haunting my window
I see you everywhere I go
You're offering me your hand now
As if I could use your help

Verse 2:
I'm doing it all
On my own
I'll tell the whole world
I made it alone
Give me a pat
On the back
So I can feel
I'm leading the pack

Pre Chorus:
But you're interrupting my solo
I can't deny the things you know
You're offering me your hand now
As if I could use your help
(final prechorus: "Will I refuse your help?")

Bridge:
I know that I did not enlist your help
But somehow I cannot pull away my hand
From your mighty hand

Chorus:
I'd be a fool to ignore you
I am nothing w/o you

Keep on Moving

Verse 1:
Look into my window
Turn the radio on
Move it like Gepetto
Groove it like a drum

Precho:
It's not the same unless you take
A little piece of it with you
It's not the same unless you're brave enough to
Bite off more than you can chew

Chorus:
Got to keep on movin
Come on trip the light
Got to keep on movin
We've got more of this to live for

Verse 2:
Wheels are movin slo mo
Thru the crowded street
Moon is casting shadows
Underneath your feet

Catch Your Breath

Verse 1:
There you go again
Barely time to shut the door behind you
Grabbing all you can
Just trying to climb the ladder
Brushin thru the wind
Feet that have you pounding
On the stairwell
Moving in your skin
So fast and fierce you travel

Prechorus:
Oh, you're climbing so high
But if it all falls down
Are you gonna be allright?

Chorus:
When are you gonna catch your breath
Chasing vanity confess
Don't wanna live a life pointless
You know time's a wasting
Can't add a minute to your life
Building castles in the sky
You'd be happier with less
Better stop and catch your breath

Verse 2:
Something in the sound
Heavy heart that beats
Against the rhythm
Nothing slows you down
Except to check the hour
Hear it out loud
Calling you to work a little harder
You're more lost than found
So far from where you started

Prechorus & Chorus:
cause now you know, the competition
Won't supply any meaning to your life
Because it's just a counterfeit

Tell me what you have;
Tell me what did you really gain
By running a race
That has no finish line

Unaffected

Verse 1:
Well, you're tough aren't you love
And no one can tear you up
'Cause you're hard and you're cold
And no one can break your hold
There's no tear for your eye
Such a casual disguise
There's no room for your soul
You're too strong to let it grow

Pre Chorus:
Never crumble or reveal
You don't crack and you don't peel

Chorus:
You're so calm and collected
So unaffected, by anything
You're so numb, and disconnected
So unaffected, that's how it seems

Verse 2:
You're the girl who never bends
Even when your world is cavin in
People ask if you're okay
You give a smirk and pull away
Gotta keep the upper hand
Even when you're with your friends
Shut them down if they take
Another step inside your space

Pre Chorus:
You don't hurt and you don't sting
You don't fall for anything
(Chorus)

Bridge:
You ain't foolin no one
I see it written on your face
You're crying out for someone to love you
Know you
(Chorus)

U Tic, I Tock

Verse 1:
You tic; I tock
You speed; I walk
You spend your love
Without A thought
I bite my lip
Before I take a plunge
We dance, we skip
Together, but
Be care full with my heart

Chorus:
This is the way you love
I can't believe what you're capable of
I want to see... the way you love

Verse 2:
You're quick; I'm late
You go; I stay
You pick and choose
Without debate
I mark my steps
With caution and delay
The things you said
Are lovely but
Be care full with my heart

Verse 3:
You spin the block
I count the cost
You scale the tower
Before I start
You pull my hand
Before I change my mind
I want the plan
For safety so
Be care full with my heart

I Can't Wait

Verse 1:
Hard rain beats on the window
The whole house now, is dark
I hear you walking in the other room
But it feels like we're apart
It's been years now
We've been together
but somehow things have changed
when was the last time?
I can't remember
When we looked in each other's eyes

Chorus:
I can't wait
Till we hit the bottom
I'm gonna stop
Before I'm there
It's too late
If we say tomorrow
Cause our love is for today

Verse 2:
Sometimes I still hear the laughter
That echoed in the halls
We use to say it didn't matter
Cause we'd wrestle it through it all
But, I miss the feeling
Of waiting for you
To walk into the room
Let us recover
All that we once knew
Cause I still wanna be with you
(Chorus)

Bridge:
God bless the day
You came in my life
Though paths and currents change
And I'm gonna stay
With you in my mind
I won't give you up
No never

There's not a reason
For us to suffer
When we could make a change
No sense in bleeding
Or taking cover
When help is only a step away
(chorus)

Intervention

Verse 1:
The kid is fresh out of luck
She's feelin down and out
She's fallen flat on her hip
She needs a turn about
The train has come off the track
Her belly on the ground
She's got a crook in her path
The sky is fallin out

Pre Chorus:
Oh, how her path's uncertain
None of her plans are workin'
Where is the light for the end?

Chorus:
She needs your help
She needs Your hand
Oh, she needs an intervention
She needs your love
You understand
Oh, she needs an intervention

Verse 2:
She's had about all she'll take
The road is bowin out
She's movin every which way
But now she's turned around
She's giving You all her trust
She's gonna take a chance
She's only got but one
More penny in her hand

Pre Chorus:
Oh, there's a burning question
She's looking for a lesson
Who's gonna calm all the waves?
(Chorus)

Pearl

Verse 1:
For you know all that I love,
All I'm about, all that I sing
And you know the melody of my heart
By memory
Not a thought I have slips your ear,
Slips your mind, passes by
And the cry of disappointment
And the cry for perfect peace
Are in the blueprints

Chorus:
For there's not a time, not a time
When you don't appreciate
What you've made in me
No there's not a time, not a time
When you cannot see
The pearl in me

Verse 2:
Every joy, every wonder,
All my interest and my thunder...
It's close to you
And the locket on your neck, in your hand
Holds all that I am
You have woven me, chosen me
I am Yours, you are mine
Every longing, every wish
The fantasies of love at last
Are written in your heart. For there's...

Chorus:
Not a time, not a time
When You don't appreciate
What You've made in me
No there's... not a time, not a time
When you cannot see the pearl in me
(repeat)

Making You Blush

Verse 1
I'm not making you blush
I'm not the one you speak of
I've not won the prize of your love

Verse 2:
I'm not turning your head
I don't make you short of breath
I'm not stopping you in your tracks

Chorus:
I am the one
He picked out of the crowd
I am the one, he called my name out loud
He wrote me on His hand
The day He drew me from the sand
I am the one
I'm the one He loves

Verse 3:
You're not looking my way
You're not asking me to stay
You don't smile when you hear my name

Verse 4:
I've not captured your hand
I've not gained your sentiment
And I would not be called your favorite
(chorus)

Bridge:
I don't dazzle your eye
I don't make you feel alive
And we know I can't change your mind
(chorus)

Dawn

Verse 1:
You were a drop of rain in the night
You touched down
On the parched swollen ground
All for a girl, who needed you tonight

Pre Chorus:
The withering fragile heart
In the drought that captured her soul

Chorus:
The dawn is breaking
And there's plenty light to find
The clouds won't crouch her back anymore
The feather falls softly
And the yoke is light to bear
She'll give her burdens to the wind

Verse 2:
She was young and married well
Till the years their children came
In the darkness, her babies would cry
For their father who would never come

Pre Chorus:
She gathers the pieces of her shattered life
These days are so dark she can't see for fright

(Chorus)

Night Will Fall

Verse 1:
Night will fall
Even when you don't want it
When you least expect it
Is when the sun goes down
But still his hand is at your back
The moment you call him
He is there
His ear is never far to find you
His hand is never short to save you

Chorus:
Love, has come
To mend and heal the brokenness you are
Love, will say
Not everyday will be just like today
Just hold on
The war will be behind you
Just hold on
My friend
Just hold on

Verse 2:
Curtains close
When you had just run up to meet them
In your shining hour
Something stole your song
But still He's closer than your breath
To hold you in your unhappiness
His ear is never far to find you
His hand is never short to save you
(Chorus)
