ALL I WANT
It could be love, it could be hate
What’s the difference if all you feel is pain
It could be hope, might be a lie
A broken heart makes you wanna die
It could be rain coming down cold as ice
It’s been like this for so many nights
To go to sleep you’ve got to calm your mind
And drift away somewhere else in time
Is there really anywhere else in time
All I want, all I want
All I want is you
We pray for peace and march proud into war
Driven by fear we can’t seem to control
Afraid to love afraid to yield
What is this demon we all conceal
There is no truce our nature is to doubt
Is our heart cursed to live without?
But yet this spark that reminds us all
Our soul responds to some distant call
Does anyone hear that distant call?
All I want, all I want
All I want is you
Somebody told me something that must have made me this way
Said life is just a circle from birth to your grave
Feared I might believe that, sensed it from time to time
You kept my soul from breaking, from losing my mind
All I want, all I want
All I want is you
You’re all I want
You’re all I want
All I want is you

NAIVE
He has hope for the hopeless in this dying place
He doesn’t do what he’s been told,
When he’s told to look the other way
He gets so close to their hurt,
You know he feels their pain
He has a vision for the future, calls it paradise
He sees the planet healed and whole,
Like from the other side
He won’t deny the evil force,
Says for now it has it’s place
Believes the end will show us all,
Love has won this race
How can he, how can he
How can he believe like that
How can he, how can he
God, he’s so naive
He sees the good in every man no matter what’s passed
He has patience and he understands
He’s so sincere when he holds your broken hand
Looks you in the eyes and give you this smile, like he knows some secret plan
How can he, how can he
How can he believe like that
How can he, how can he
God, he’s so naive
How can he believe like that,
How can he believe
He holds out for the liars,
He knows what they mean
He shares his food with the helpless,
He likes the way they eat
He says this place ain’t so bad,
Loves the way we all laugh
Opens his arms oh so wide,
Says if you could see yourselves
How can he believe like that,
How can he believe
He has hope for the hopeless in this dying place
He has a vision for the future, calls it paradise
He sees the good in every man,
No matter how bad
He holds out for the liars,
He knows what we mean
How can he believe like that?
How can he believe

UNDER THE STARLIGHT
I don’t feel the pain like I use to, I don’t seem to care that much anymore
I’ve grown blind with time, I don’t see the crime
I don’t even know what day it is
I remember when I would dance in the starlight
When things got tough there always was enough hope to fight
Do you remember dancing in the starlight
Twirling around, dizzy with love
Singing all night, under the starlight
Now as time goes by it doesn’t matter any less
You can’t steer the ship you’re in you either sink or float in it
You get tired of chasing shadows,
Tired of the promises made You want to hear something simple
Like your heart is your home and not your grave
I remember when I would dance in the starlight
When things got tough there always was enough hope to fight
Do you remember dancing in the starlight
Twirling around, dizzy with love
Singing all night, under the starlight
I really really miss it I really really miss it
You would kiss me on the lips and say catch me if you dare
You know we had this courage, Each day, a beautiful mystery
Do you remember dancing in starlight
When things got tough there always was enough hope to fight
Do you remember dancing in the starlight
Do you remember? We were dancing in the starlight
When things got tough there always was enough hope to fight
Do you remember? Do you remember? We were dancing in the starlight
Twirling around, dizzy with love
Out of control, crazy in love
Singing all night, under the starlight.

YOU CAME FROM SOMEWHERE
You came from somewhere, you came to me
You came from somewhere helped me believe
I went far away where no one could reach me
Sifted through the voices to find one who could teach me
Flattery and spies, confusion and lies
I gave up so many good things, my reasons to try
You came from somewhere, you came to me
You came from somewhere helped me believe
You know I walked in circles, I crossed all my lines
I gave in to temptation, to see if I was alive
I saw the beauty grow old and die
I had to surrender my reasons to try
You came from somewhere, you came to me
You came from somewhere helped me believe
I went far away where no one could reach me
Sifted through the voices to find one who could teach me
I saw the beauty grow old and die
I had to surrender, no reason to try
You came from somewhere, you came to me
You came from somewhere helped me believe
Somewhere, I believe Somewhere, I believe
