You’ve Got A Lover Words and Music by Shake Russell
The
clubs they’re all closing (Chorus) There’s acres and acres of heartbroken lovers |
 |
(Chorus)
You’ve got a lover but it’s not me
He can’t love you like I can
There will be others yes I understand
Will they love me like you can (Oh - Chorus)
The clubs they’re all closing
And you know I was hoping
The wine would see me over
I pulled up my collar walked into the night
I went looking for an answer
(Chorus)
You’ve got a lover but it’s not me
He can’t love you like I can
There will be others yes I understand
Will they love you like I can
And I can
Two Silver Hearts Words and Music by Shake Russell
Two silver hearts
They’re life long friends they’ve always been
They’ve so much to look back upon
Their love begins
Where other lovers often end
They’ve so much to be thankful for
(Chorus)
I know I know I know I heard him say
These years they’ve been so good to her
I know I know I do believe he knows
This time
She’s been loving him
It’s been a long long time
It had no name when I first walked with you
We had so much to look forward to
Then I changed your name
I watched your hair turn gray
I’ve so much to be thankful for
(Chorus)
I know I know I know I heard her say
These years they’ve been so good to him
I know I know I do believe she knows
This time for sure
He’s been loving her
It’s been a long long time
She’s been loving him a long time
Two silver hearts
They’re life long friends they’ve always been
They've always been
Illinois Bound Words and Music by J.B. Emerson
I met her one day in the coffee shop allot to talk about
Oh, it seemed such a long time ago
She asked me where I was headed for I'm an Arizona boy
Waiting for that dusty train I know
(Chorus)
I'm wondering why it seems
That I'm searching for my dreams
Since the day I saw her face
Hold me tight all through the night
This Arizona boy feels out of place
She said Illinois is my home, it gets awfully cold
And I said I hope you stay real warm
Then suddenly I felt my heart soar and it took nothing more
Than the way that she touched my hand (Chorus)
(Instrumental)
I saw her again the next day with nothing more to say
Through the train window pane
And I left without a sound as the rain came tumbling down
So my tears did the same (Chorus)
I'm wondering why it seems that I'm chasing all my dreams
Since the day I saw her face
Hold me tight all through the night
This Arizona boy feels out of place
I'm out of place, I'm out of place, I'm out of place
Turn the train around I'm Illinois bound
For the love I found
I'm Illinois bound
Seeds Words and Music by Pat Alger
| Sometimes I stop on my way home And watch the children play And I wonder if they wonder What they'll be someday Some may have a big dream Make it all come true While others go on dreaming Of things they'll never do (Chorus) |
 |
I saw a friend the other day
I hardly recognized
He'd done a lot of living
Since I last looked in his eyes
He told a tail of how he failed
The lessons he'd been taught
But he offered no excuses
And he left me with this thought (Chorus)
And as I'm standing at the crossroads once again
I am reminded we're all the same when we begin
But in the end (Chorus)
We're all just seeds (all just seeds)
In God's hands
Your Voice Words and Music by Pat Alger
When I’ve had one of those days
I could’ve live without
When nothing goes my way
And I it’s all turned inside out
You walk into the room
And the world just disappears
Your voice call out my name
And it’s music to my ears
(Chorus)
You know I love your eyes
The way they sparkle and they shine
And I love to feel your hand
Tightly holding mine
Of all the things I love about you
If I had to make one choice
You know I couldn’t live without
The sweet sound of your voice
When I hear your voice
It amazes me the way
I cuts above the noise
Even when I’m far away
A picture’s worth a thousand words
I heard them say it’s true
But I’d trade a thousand pictures
For just one word from you (Chorus)
You know I couldn’t live without your voice

A Gift Words and Music by J.B. Emerson
You are a gift to me
Given by God alone
And I will serve you
Under His love
For many a day goes by
When I feel apart from you
And I've waited patiently
To be one with you
With all my fears placed aside
I give my whole heart to you
Without deserving your love
With all my joy placed In God
I give my whole self to you
For I will love you all my life
(Instrumental)
With all my fears placed aside
I give my whole heart to you
Without deserving your love
With all my joy placed In God
I give my whole self to you
For I will love you as my wife
You are a gift to me
Given by God alone
You are a gift to me
Live and Learn Words and Music by J.B. Emerson
Everybody wants what everybody has
No on wants what no one wants
There people who are crying
They're drying in the street
No on has time to really listen
Tell me why, why, why
The sun came up for everyone today
The sun went down the same way everyday
With so much in common, I wonder how we choose
To only notice our differences (Chorus)
(Chorus)
Tell me why, why, why (Can’t we live and learn)
Can't we live and learn by our mistakes?
Why must it always have to be this way?
This way, this way... Oh, no
(Instrumental)
Born with two arms to legs to eyes to see
Breath the same air, feel same wind
Under the same sky just you and me
Feel the same pain, know the same fear
Have the same joy, know the same love
How can this be?
Tell me why, why, why
Want to know why, why, why
Will someone tell me why
Can't we live and learn (Repeat)
I know we can live
I know we can live and learn
When I Hold You Words and Music by Todd Lanson Martin
The day is done the hour’s late
A baby girl cries, she’s wide awake
Rushed to her room to make her smile
And let her mother rest awhile
Baby girl I know you know
How much you Daddy loves you so
And all the cares of the day, just fade away
When I hold you
I warm the bottle on the stove
I tell you things like how you’ll grow
You look at me I know you care
Then you watch your hand with a cross-eyed stare
Little girl don’t you see
Just how much you mean to me
You have that certain feel, I know love is real
When I hold you
(Chorus)
When I hold you, there’s no place that I’d rather be
When I hold you, I want the whole world to see
It’s you and me, your Daddy’s little girl
When I hold you
I take you to the rocking chair
We spend our closest moments there
I sing you songs you close your eyes
You drift into my lullaby
Oh, honey you know its true
My world starts and ends with you
You help me know how to live by what you give
When I hold you
The bottle’s gone, I slowly rise
Back to the crib I take my prize
I lay you down beside your bear
And thank you for the times we share and
Angel may your dreams be nice
May they take you to paradise
And all of the dreams that I’ve dreamed come true it seems
When I hold you (Chorus)
Your Daddy’s little girl when I hold you (Repeat)

My Heart Belongs To You Words and Music by Tom Booth
My heart, my heart belongs to you
My heart, my heart belongs to you
I could never leave you
You're all that I need
My heart belongs to you
My life, my life belongs to you
My life, my life belongs to you
I could never leave you
You're all that I need
My life belongs to you
(Instrumental)
My soul, my soul belongs to you
My soul, my soul belongs to you
I could never leave you
You're all that I need

My heart belongs to you
This I Would By Todd Lanson Martin ã 1993 T & M Melodies
Hand in hand we walk together
And arm in arm we stroll along
And if we could walk into forever
This I would
Cheek to cheek we share our secrets
Eye to eye we share our vows
And if we could fly into the heavens
This I would
Many people, they fall in love
Yet not many people know the beauty of our love
Heart to heart we know each other
Soul to soul we soar as one
And if I could have you every moment
This I would
Day to day our love grows stronger
Year to year our hopes anew
Yet if I could stop the world from turning
This I would
Many people, they fall in love
Yet not many people know the beauty of our love
Kiss to kiss we stand united
Hug to hug we shall not fall
And if I could stop time with us together
This I would
Tear to tear we cope with burdens
Smile to smile we overcome
And if I could make this love eternal
This I would
Take Me Away Words and Music by J.B. Emerson
I tried to tell you last night
Don’t let your problems
Get you so uptight
And while saying that true love
Will cast out all fear
I heard you cry in my ear (And you said)
(Chorus)
Take me away, take me away with you
I want to go where it’s peaceful and clear
Take me away, take me away with you
I want to leave from here (I’d love to see you again)
Steve I remember you all so well
All of the laughs and the jokes you could tell
And while serving the Father, you died on that day
I know that you can hear me say (Chorus)
Instrumental
My life may not amount to much
Looking for good and seeing too much
But all I ask for is to grant one request
Father come take me away
(Chorus)
Take me away, take me away with you
I want to go where it’s peaceful and clear
Take me away, take me away with you
I want to leave from here (Repeat Chorus)
Deep In The West Words and Music by Shake Russell
Deep in the west
Where the tall mountains grow
I’ve gone home
Where the heaven above
Turns red from the fire down below
(Chorus)
Are you listening to me
When I’m talking to you
Said together we’re one
And divided we’re through
Oh, oh divided we’re through
Silver friend at night
Yellow friend you come with the dawn
Back in my heart, I’ve been drying my eyes
You see me run
(Chorus)
So you hang onto me
And I hang onto you
Said together we’re one
And divided we’re through
Oh, oh divided we’re through
(Instrumental)
| Refusing to talk I suppose that it’s all for love’s sake Ain’t it babe But learning to give That’s important, before you can take from me Are
you listening to me (There you go) |
