ON THE OTHER SIDE

  • Heading for the other side, be waiting when you get that time

    Indignant in the way we ride...it will define

    Kinda makes you wonder what we're thinking when we're running out of line

    Navigate a sea of love...and getting light

    Knowing the transgression is giving us a lesson to decry

    You never know what it'll be or determine how a love is gonna feel

    What a finding on the other side...so real

    Working hard and it's justified, but you been living on a rusty lie

    Digging where the sun don't shine... it ain't right

    Doing for the man who doesn't understand how you survive

    Gotta listen, intuition, something eating at your mind

    Not religion, it's attention...on the way to win your life

    We never know when it'll be or determine how a love is gonna feel

    What a finding on the other side...so real

    Be good to your mother and your father and we'll see you on the other side

    Be kind to your brothers and all others and we'll see you on the other side

    Be cool, be love and we'll see you on the other side

    Be free, be one and we'll see you on the other side

LOVE YOU TRUE

  • Looking out the window waiting for your call

    I wonder if you will ring at all

    Thinking about this morning and your goodbye,

    holding in the feeling that make me cry

    Sitting on a fall line soaking up the sun

    anticipating, dreaming and waiting for you to come

    Love, you are the one for me

    and I want you to see

    How I feel about you and by design...

    try to make the most of it tonight

    I wanna love, I gotta love, I better love you,

    I'm gonna love you, I will love you true

    I wanna love, I gotta love, I better love you,

    I'm gonna love you, I will love you true

    Out in the evening sharing the time

    A smile on your face and you're leaving a trace of your kind Love,

    you are so beautiful and love you are divine

    When we get together, it's so fine

    Hanging on each other feels alright, it feels so right

    I wanna love, I gotta love, I better love you,

    I'm gonna love you, I will love you true

    I wanna love, I gotta love, I better love you,

    I'm gonna love you, I will love you true

CLIMB UP THE MOUNTAIN - 2

  • Will you climb up the mountain will you climb will you climb

    Will you climb up the mountain will you see the other side

    Will you climb up the mountain will you climb will you climb

    Courage to be redefined

    Who you gonna be now, what you wanna do

    Did you wanna turn your back on reality move it all around

    Even though you're standing all alone

    Will you climb up the mountain will you climb will you climb

    Will you climb up the mountain when you're feeling all right

    Will you climb up the mountain will you climb will you climb

    Fighting for you're state of mind

    One life is all you're gonna get so you better make it right

    Are you ready for another step cause it might just be the one

    That takes you higher

    Will you climb up the mountain will you climb will you climb

    Will you climb up the mountain just to see what you will find

    Will you climb up the mountain will you climb will you climb

    Truly different and divine

    Will you climb up the mountain will you climb will you climb

    Will you climb up the mountain when you're looking for the light

    Will you climb up the mountain will you climb will you climb

    Rather than the dark of night

    Will you climb up the mountain will you climb will you climb

    Will you climb up the mountain when you wanna redesign

    Will you climb up the mountain will you climb will you climb

    Heading for that finish line

WONDERING

  • It was a good night

    With the fire as our light

    The open window made it right

    It was time to re-unite

    Then the day came around

    We were back on the ground

    And you were far away

    Do we know what we need

    How could that be

    While we are wondering....why

    It was the right time

    For the love that we knew

    Was only waiting to be true

    There was nothing we could do

    Now the years are all gone

    But the feelings live on

    And you are far away

    Do we know what to feel

    How could this be

    While we are wondering...why

    Yes the day came around

    We were back on the ground

    And you were far away

    Do we know what we need

    Could this be

    While we are wondering...why

GAME IS ON - 1

  • Early morn you're packing up to go, talking about those days of long ago

    How you need some time to be alone, wanna have your confidence in mind

    Gotta make sure everything is right, won't handle being out of line

    Falling in and out of love, time away is good

    Although it's understood we know

    Game is on game is off

    Sometimes it feels like we're just living in a country song

    Game is on game is off, you and me ought to do this thing

    'Cause it's taking us way too long, way too long

    To and fro we go it's on and on, even if we're always getting along

    Do we clarify before it's gone, better leave that harmful thought behind

    You and I will have a glass of wine, maybe catch a line before we go

    Falling in and out of love, you and I are good

    And it's understood we know

    Game is on game is off

    Sometimes it feels like we're just living in a country song

    Game is on game is off, you and me ought to do this thing

    'Cause it's taking us way too long, way too long

    Game is on...

DANCING SHOES - 2

  • We've got dancing shoes on and we're rockin' in 'em

    And our feet are moving blazing dynamite

    We've got dancing shoes on and we're stompin' on 'em

    As we celebrate and boogie through the night

    Take a hand and make a circle bring it in and get your mojo

    We've got dancing shoes on and we're rockin' in 'em

    And our feet are moving blazing dynamite

    We've got dancing shoes on and we're stompin' on 'em

    As we celebrate and boogie through the night

    Raise your hands up to the sky line

    Lift them up and see what you find

    We've got dancing shoes on and we're struttin' in 'em

    Now we're cuttin' and we're movin' left and right

    We've got dancing shoes on and we're sliding on 'em

    Maybe soon we're gonna give into the light

    Take a hand and make a circle bring it in and let your soul go

    Dancing Shoes,dancing shoes

    Take a hand and make a circle bring it in and let your soul go

    Dancing Shoes, dancing shoes

    Raise your hands up to the sky line

    Lift them up and see what you find

    Dancing Shoes,dancing shoes

    We've got dancing shoes on and we're rockin' in 'em

    We've got dancing shoes on and we're stompin' on 'em

    We've got dancing shoes on and we're rockin' in 'em

    And our feet are moving blazing dynamite

    We've got dancing shoes on and we're stompin' on 'em

    As we celebrate and boogie through the night

WALKING ON A CLOUD - 1
WALKING ON A CLOUD - 2

  • Where do you go to leave your troubles

    What do you do to fight the pain

    Could it be from something you’ve been told

    Or would it be your pride was not controlled

    You’re hearing the sounds of all the voices

    And telling yourself they’re all the same

    Could it be your time to let them in

    And let it be a sign to start again

    All your life you been a walkin on a cloud

    Never thinkin bout the day you’d come around

    Now you’re livin in a place you haven’t found

    So keep on pushing and you’re bound to settle down

    You open your eyes to see the fountain

    And see moving water come to life

    Now can you see how good the day could be

    And you can feel the power to believe

    All your life you been a walkin on a cloud

    Never thinkin bout the day you’d come around

    Now you’re livin in a place you haven’t found

    So keep on pushing and you’re bound to settle down

HE'S GONNA LOVE YOU

  • He's with you in the morning and on and on

    With you when you're dreaming and so far beyond

    He's with you when you're hurting and feeling blue

    With when you're lucky or don't know what you should do

    He's always here to stay, He never goes away

    He's gonna love you, gonna love you until the end of time

    He's gonna love you, gonna love you until the end of time

DREAM

  • Another year away from things I said I'd do

    Hold it in but love the dream that I pursue

    If I wait 'til the fun to start, I might find the time

    If I can only make it through the season of

    The gift of life

    Watching for a story line of what was yet to come

    Longing for a hill to climb so we could get it done

    Dream and dream and dream

    Dream and dream and dream

    Dream and dream and dream

    Dream and dream and dream

    Will I accept it just the way it is

    Or let it dissipate like cola and it's fizz

    I don't wanna be that hollow man who shoves it all aside

    I'd rather take it to the limit and to never be denied

    Could it be something so much more

    Waiting for the summer, waiting for the fall

    Waiting for the rain to pour down upon us all

    I get a bit emotional wondering what to do

    I don't know what it's gonna take, but all we need is love

    Dream and dream and dream

    Dream and dream and dream

    Dream and dream and dream

    Dream and dream and dream

    Nobody knows the way it's gonna go

    We could make it or we might just drop into the snow

    What do you know it's gonna be alright

    ...it's just a dream...a dream

  • I'm here and you're here and we're in love

    Stay here with me now

    I love you, you know it we're in love

    We're in love, we're in love with each other

    We're in love forever, forever

    I know you, you know me we're in love

    Hope it's true 'cause love's for me and you

    We're in love forever, forever

    We're in love, we're in love with each other

TRAIN COMIN'

  • Train comin' and the steam is rolling

    Train comin' up around the bend

    Train comin' with a Savior on it

    He's gonna make it right again

    Gonna grab that soul and take it for a ride

    Gonna find out what you really got inside

    Been livin' in a boneyard lately

    Been hangin' in a horrid fall

    One lady man has seen temptation

    Can't ever seem to let it go

    Gonna grab that soul and take it for a ride

    Gonna find out who you really are inside

    Train is a coming for your life

    We need to make a quest of it, committing to the best of it, relying on the warnings of the times

    Connect the dots to where they go instigate another show, motivated by the way we try

    One morning when your heart is weeping, one morning when the dole is high

    Train comin' with a Savior on it, He gonna try to make you right

    Gonna grab that soul and take it for a ride

    Train is a comin' for you and me

    We need to make a quest of it, committing to the best of it, relying on the warnings of the times

    Connect the dots to where they go instigate another show, motivated by the way we try
