King Of Hearts
04:52
|
|||
All alone drifting wild / Like a ship that's
lost out on the ocean / Everyone's a
homeless child / And it's not hard to
understand / Why we need a Father's hand
/ There's a rainbow somewhere / And you
were born to be there / But you're just
running in circles / Till you reach out your
hand to the King of hearts.
Pockets full of pain and fear / That's a load
there's just no need to carry / Let it go and
leave it here / Now there's no price that's
left to pay / With one more mile or one
more day
There's a rainbow somewhere / And you
were born to be there / But you're just
running in circles / Till you reach out your
hand to the King of hearts.
You can try to catch the wind / But in the
end you're only wasting precious time /
Life can really be so kind / Once you find
the truth and follow, go on follow, follow
There's a rainbow somewhere / And you
were born to be there / But you're just
running in circles / Till you reach out your
hand / Till you reach out your hand / Til
you reach out your hand to the King of
hearts
There's a rainbow somewhere / There's a
rainbow somewhere / There's a rainbow
somewhere

Keep Me Runnin'
05:58
|
|||
Keep me runnin' from the shadow of my
lies / Like a gypsy who is never satisfied /
Once you compromise your soul / You
spend your lifetime dodging the devil's toll
Keep me runnin' (keep me movin') keep me coverin' up my
tracks / Keep me runnin' so I'm always
looking back / Always restless in my
dreams / And trouble's never too far
behind it seems
Keep me runnin' keep me movin' keep me
always on the go / Keep me makin' sure
my footprints never show / Keep me
runnin' keep me movin' keep me numb
from head to toe / Keep me hiding where
my past will never go
Keep me runnin' from the sins I can't erase
/ Like an outlaw with a mask to hide his
face / Once I was told that love could fly /
Yeah but it's been so long that I just can't
remember why
Keep me runnin' keep me movin' keep me
always on the go / Keep me makin' sure
my footprints never show / Keep me
runnin' keep me movin' keep me numb
from head to toe / Keep me hiding where
my past will never go
Keep me runnin' Keep me runnin' Keep
me runnin'

The Winner (High Card)
03:43
|
|||
I'm a wheeler a dealer the man who's in
control / Don't talk about my feelings
Don't talk abut my soul / Well you
know my time is money so I've got no
time to spend / But when you've got
some business won't you come on by
again
I'm the winner and I made it to the top /
And I took it all just like I planned / I'm
the man who holds the high card in his
hand
I'm an owner a loaner a master at the
game / I've got that golden Midas touch
And people know my name / There
were times I held the low cards baby well
I knew they weren't enough / But I just
kept my poker face and won it on the
bluff
I'm the winner and I made it to the top /
And I took it all just like I planned / I'm
the man who holds the high card in his
hand
It's not easy to see me I'm an influential
man / And I never needed anyone To
build my promised land / So don't tell
me about Jesus 'cause He's just to hard
to sell / And I never trust in strangers
that's the first rule I Learned well
I'm the winner and I made it to the top /
And I took it all just like I planned / I'm
the man who holds the high card in his
hand
I'm the winner look at me now I'm the
winner / I'm the winner look at me now
I'm the winner

Lung Cancer
03:34
|
|||
She went down to the corner store/ And
bought a pack of filter kings / Don't you
know tomorrow she'll be back for more /
Cause she really loves to smoke those
things / And every time that she inhales / A
cloud of that cigarette smoke / She's just
one step closer to the man in black / And
sixty cents closer to broke
And she's working on / Lung cancer,
emphysema, a cardiac arrest / And she'll
probably have a stroke when see sees /
The x-rays of her chest
When she had her first cigarette / A puff or
two was all she could take / Now if she doesn't
have one in her hand all the time /
You'll notice it begin to shake / And even
though she's nonchalant / And acts as if
her habit's a joke / I bet she won't do too
much laughing / When her life goes up in
smoke
She's been smoking that C-I-G-A-R-E-T-T-E
that cigarette's got her on her knees / C-I-
G-A-R-E-T-T-E / That darn tobacco won't
set her free / Suck baby suck / Suck on that
cigarette / Go on and light up that fag and
take a drag / It's bound to snuff you yet
(guitar break)
She went down to the corner store/ And
bought a pack of filter kings / Don't you
know tomorrow she'll be back for more /
Cause she really loves to smoke those
things / And every time that she inhales / A
cloud of that cigarette smoke / She's just
one step closer to the man in black / And
sixty cents closer to broke

Puppet Strings
04:24
|
|||
I can't keep from mourning for this topsy-
turvy world / With all its strife and pain /
Mourning for the lost and the desperate
children / Who can't remember their
names
And I can feel it in my soul / Now the end
is getting near / I can hear the devil
laughing / And its ringing in my ears
Long ago He chose us to inherit all His
kingdom / And we were blessed with light
/ But wandering away we disobeyed Him
in the garden / And stumbled into night
And I can feel it in my soul / Now the end
is getting near / I can hear the angels
weeping / And it's ringing in my ears
We are all like foolish puppets who
desiring to be kings / Now lie pitifully
crippled after cutting our own strings
But God said I'll forgive you I will face you
Man to man / And win your love again /
Oh how could there be possibly a greater
gift of love / Than dying for a friend
And I can feel it in my soul / Now the end
is getting near / I can hear the devil
laughing / And it's ringing in my ears
We are all like foolish puppets who
desiring to be kings / Now lie pitifully
crippled after cutting our own strings
Cutting our own strings / Cutting our own
strings / Cutting our own strings

First Prayer
03:10
|
|||
I've been waitin' for a long long time /
Hopin' You're a friend of mine / If there's
one thing that I need to do / Well that's to
find out more about You / I have been
wondering all of my days / So if You're
there show me the way
I see people in a world of lies / Staring out
through lonely eyes / Watching as the
years go by / Knowing they're living only
to die / There must be something missing
somewhere / So if You're listening answer
this prayer
I will follow if You'll lead me / Help me
make a stand / If You'll breathe new breath
inside me / I'll believe you can/ I'll believe
You can
Well I never really learned to pray / But
You know what I'm tryin' to say / I don't
want my life to end / Not ever knowing
why it began / So if You'll trust me I'll do
my best / and I'll be trusting You for the
rest

I've Got News For You
03:50
|
|||
Everybody's going to the movies /
Everybody's leavin' for the show / Seems as
if we've lost the nerves for feeling / And no
one's in the mood to want to know
I've got news for you this is not a game /
I've got news for you are you Listenin' /
I've got news for you we are all the same /
And when that is understood we can start
to live again
Can you look inside yourself and tell me /
That your emptiness is just a state of mind /
And you'll feel better if you just keep busy
/ If you leave your feelings all behind
I've got news for you this is not a game /
I've got news for you are you listenin' / I've
got news for you we are all to blame / And
when that is understood we can start to live
again
Oh start to live again / People people tell
me where have we been
Ever feel as if your heart was whispering /
Like a special Voice you never heard
before / And something deep inside your
soul was tickin' / As if someone was
pounding on the door
I've got news for you this is not a game /
I've got news for you are you listenin' / I've
got news for you we are all the same / I've
got news for you this is not a game / I've
got news for you we are all the blame /
And when that is understood we can start
to live again / Yes when that is understood
we can start to live again

Song For Sarah
03:28
|
|||
Sarah can I love you will you open up the
door / I know you've heard that misused
word a lot of times before / But I think that
you need someone who can firmly take
your hand / And love you in a way that you
can really understand
Sarah will you love me you've got so much
there to give / We've waited for so long to
change the lonely way we live / And I see
the fragile lady that you hide behind your
eyes / And I want so much to reach you
when I hear those distant cries
Sarah Someone loves you in a way I never
could / He laid His life before you on a
cross made out of wood / Oh and in His
hour of anguish our dreams were given
birth / I hope you finally realize how much
your love is worth

I wonder if this Christmas they'll begin to understand
The Jesus that they celebrate is much more than a man
'Cause the way the world is I don't see How people can deny
The only way to save us was for Jesus Christ to die
And I know that if Saint Nicholas was here he would agree
That Jesus gave the greatest gift of all to you and me
They led Him to the slaughter on a hill called Calvary
And mankind was forgiven when they nailed Him to the tree
But most of all the children they're the ones I hope will learn
That Jesus is our Savior and He's going to return
And Christmas isn't just a day and all days aren't the same
Perhaps they'll think about the word and see it spells His name
And I know that if Saint Nicholas was here he would agree
That Jesus gave the greatest gift of all to you and me
They led Him to the slaughter on a hill called Calvary
And mankind was forgiven, mankind was forgiven
We were all forgiven when they nailed Him to the tree
So Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
I wonder if this Christmas they'll begin to understand
