"Love"

   
Love is real, real is love
Love is feeling, feeling love
Love is wanting to be loved.

Love is touch, touch is love
Love is reaching, reaching love
Love is asking to be loved

Love is you
You and me
Love is knowing
You can be

Love is free, free is love
Love is living, living, living love
Love is needing to be loved.

Love is you
You and me
Love is wanting
To be free

Love is knowing
You will be.

"To-Ra-Loo-Ra"

   
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral
Too-ra-loo-ra-li
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral
Hush now, don't you cry

Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral
Too-ra-loo-ra-li
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral
That's an Irish lullaby

Over in Killarney, many years ago
My mother sang a song to me in tones so soft and low
Just a simple little ditty in her good old Irish way
And I'd give the world if I could hear that song of hers
Today

Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral
Too-ra-loo-ra-li
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral
Hush now, don't you cry

Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral
Too-ra-loo-ra-li
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral
That's an Irish lullaby

"Let The Pendulum Swing"

   
Let the pendulum swing.
Let the old guard surrender
It is a new day, a new world,
A new language I wish to speak
The language of love
May I have the words I need to speak my truth,
To translate my heart and my vision
To my beloved and his children
To all who come to sit at our table
Or walk with us through the market place
Or pray with us by the water

May I have the plain poetry to tell them how I feel
Or why there is pain,
If the answers are mine to know.
And if they are, I ask the Spirit to let me share them
With a light heart, with laughter,
Wth no expectation, with humility
But for the grace of Thee, go I.
May I know my innocence
Every moment of every day
May I be a child forever
Intoxicated by hot sand, cool winds, by love
By my own communication to the Spirit.
May my aliveness always be as loud
When I make love, as when I cry
May I see my own reflection in the mirror
And smile

My love,
You are my teacher
And I surrender to your heart
The purest heart I've ever seen
Today I give you everything that is mine to give
My truth
All my innocence
And all my heart
I am yours
Let the dance begin.

"Just Breathe"

   
I prayed for something I could never understand
The Sword of Shiva to deliver me to unimagined lands.
And there you were

I asked for something that could catch me by surprise
To leap into the belly of the beast to rip me up and bring me out alive
And there you were

Into your eyes
I'm falling rain
Into your eyes
A hurricane
Into your eyes
I'm coming home
I'm holding on
I'm letting go

Oh, I'm flying free
O'er the land of the prophecy
All my future below
Oh, I pledge my life
All I am to be by your side
Then you whisper that all you need of me
Is Just to Breathe

Initiation to the wisdom of the heart
An invocation know to humble men
And tear their worlds apart
And there you were

I prayed every night n'day for something to believe
Some brand of magic that could lift me up and bring me to my knees
And there you were

Into your eyes
I'm falling rain
Into your eyes
A hurricane
Into your eyes
I'm coming home
I'm holding on
I'm letting go

Oh, I'm flying free
O'er the land of the prophecy
All my future below
Oh, I pledge my life
All I am to be by your side
Sworn to love you as long as I shall breathe

In every other lover's eyes
Keep it up, keep it up, keep it up, all your life
In the line of duty we can never do enough
I am surrendered
I am ascended on love

I'm flying free
O'er the land of the prophecy
All of my future before my eyes and
Oh, I pledge my life
All I am to be by your side
Come and take me home

Oh my father's son
New reborn as the chosen one
Now he kneels at your feet
Oh, I pledge my life
All I am to be by your side
Come and take me home.

"I Am Not Hiding"

   
I was runnin' from Paradise
Busy dancin' across thin ice
Then lookin' up
I thought somebody called my name
But I kept on walkin' on down
On my own way

I was livin' but not enough
Turnin' my face
From the face of love
Then lookin' up
I'm certain I saw your eyes
And I don't know how
And I don't know why
But I know I'm home

[Chorus:]
I Am Not Hiding
This time I'm deciding
Now I'm showin' up
To give it all my love
I Am Not Hiding
Now I'm standing here
Shoutin' out to heaven
Runnin' no more

Freedom was overdue
I was starvin' for a dream
And the dream was you
Then lookin' up
Big love was pourin' down
'N I don't know how
'N I don't know why
But I know I'm home

[Chorus]

The dream of love was more
Than I could have
I'd almost given it up
But darlin' now it's back

I am here
You are real
This time I'm learnin' to feel
I have found
Paradise
Showin' up in your eyes

This is all I know
No more sad goodbyes
Kiss it all hello
I'm showin' up for my life

Oh, Love is what it's all about
You gotta go in
To get out

For once in my life
I've found my home
Home in your arms, darlin'
All I know is that I'm finally home
Strong enough to see the truth
You gotta go in
To get out

"All I Ask"

   
Every time I'm around you
I'm caught by surprise
A sense of electric anticipation
Rolls into me when you smile.

And I know that you're filled by emotion
'Cause I see it in the tear
That you hide
Girl I don't want you to go
'N I don't need you to know
If forever is a part of your life

[Chorus:]
All I Ask of you
Is hear your heart
All I Ask of you
Is trust it babe

They call love "illusion"
They say "falling in love's a mistake"
"It could be just about anybody"
But I don't see it that way

Hey - I know what's in you
Because I can feel it too.
And I've never been more scared in my life

'N I don't want you to go
'N girl I don't need to know
If forever's what I see in
Your eyes

[Chorus]

Just as the night
Knows the sun's comin' home
Trust that our love
Has a mind of its own

"Now That I Know Love"

   
How do I know if I'm in love?
Who could I ever learn to trust?
I asked myself these questions for so long
What do I only wish to see?
What do I truly know to be?
I told myself to hold on tight
You never know enough
But now I see what I believe
'Cause I'm believin' love

[Chorus:]
Whether my mind's sayin' it's crazy
Whether my world's sayin' I'm wrong
Wherever my heart goes, that's where I belong
I finally found out what faith is
I follow the way that it feels
And heaven has never been more real

When you looked into me
And you laid your hands on me
At once the deaf could hear
The blind could see
Now that I Know Love

I was a child alone, asleep
You came along and cradled me
You took me in your arms
And rocked me so sweetly
I'd prayed for love
To come to pass
How do we know if love will last?
And if it can't then someone tell me
What we're livin' for
I don't know what tomorrow holds
But I know what I know

[Chorus]

Glory be, I believe
Oh I finally see that love isn't blind
'Cause I've never seen more clearly in my life
Now that I Know Love

"The Art Of Letting Go"

   
There are times
When love soaks you to the bone
'N then those moments leave you wonderin'
If you'll lose your mind or lose control

Life is nothing without love
Love is nothing if not freedom

They tell me the gates of hell
That you shake 'n you rattle
Are secretly locked from inside

[Chorus:]
You hope 'n pray you'll find
The one thing on your mind
Not until you know
The Art of Letting Go
'N it may seem to be
Defying gravity
That's because they know
The Art of Letting Go

You may think
You built a present perfect world
And you may wonder to yourself
Does anyone really know what else could ever matter?

But the Man with His hand
On the hammer
Wears a velvet glove

Does the rich man know he's poor?
Does the beggar care for much more than survival?

When you look into the eyes of children laughing
Do you remember who you were?
Or who you are?

Life is nothing without love
Love is nothing if not freedom

They tell me the gates of hell
That you shake 'n you rattle
Are secretly locked
From inside

[Chorus]

You hope and pray you'll find
A love to last all time
Not until you know
The Art of Letting Go
And it may seem to be
Defying gravity
That's because they know
The Art of Letting Go

You're dying to believe
In love eternally
Not until you know
The Art of Letting Go
And it may seem to be
Defying gravity
That's because we know
The Art of Letting Go

You can't go through it
Without going through it
'Til it goes through you
'Til you know the truth

"One Chance At A Time"

   
Hello there
You tell me
You got a lot of real respect
For my kind
The Old Timers
I'm old enough to know the rules.
But nobody gave me the book
I had to learn to improvise myself
'N time 'n time I let me down
Until I learned the hard way
How to feel
What's real

[Chorus:]
But you get one chance at a life
To give it all and get it right
'N after all this time in mine
Everything I thought I knew
Was tellin' me
To give it up
And leave it all behind
But you get endless second chances
To take it One Chance at a Time

For love 'n money
I made a lot-a dumb mistakes
In my time
Believe me
I proved and proved it
I can't believe I'm gonna prove it again
It's time to reinvent myself
But where the hell does the fire come from
When makin' it don't make it anymore?

[Chorus]

Time and Love
I been lookin' all my life
For time and love
Hoping a breeze will come 'n take me
I been waiting
And waiting
And sailing in one place
Like a bird against the wind
Afraid to turn and fly away

"Love's Got Nothin' To Prove"

   
Love isn't just
Somethin' to try
No "act" of love
Can satisfy
You've got to believe
It's live or die
To ask yourself the question
"How can love survive?"

And if we try
And it don't work out
Like so many people do
It's just a fact of life
No we ain't in charge
There ain't nothin' that's wrong with me
Ain't nothin' that's wrong with you

[Chorus:]
Love's got Nothin' to Prove
It's not up to you
Two souls come into a world made
Of time and space
Searchin' for the truth
With nothin' but love to prove
And find it in the gift of
A moment of grace

Your heart is broken
'Cause your love was untrue
You're asking God
"Oh why you?"

Oh was it crazy
Givin' all of you?
You ask yourself the question
"What more could I do?"

[Chorus]

There's always somebody to tell you how
You were a fool who jus' believed too much
But in the end the fool, you'll come to know
Is not the one who loved
