This mountain we must climb over
This mountain we must climb
I will follow you over
We will survive

It's time now
We must be moving onward
It's time for us to fly
Take care and look over your shoulder
I'm there all the time

If your lost and you need someone to count on
Oh you've got to look to me
Because it's times like these when a good friend is a savior
Oh you come running on back to me

It's time now
We must be moving onward
It's time for us to fly
Take care and look over your shoulder
I'm there all the time

And someday when you're feeling awkward
And someday when you're down
Come to me I will give you anything
I'll turn your frown around

What you've done for me is more that I could hope for
Oh you are my friend
And I'll be there for you through happiness and sad times
Oh our love will pull us through

This mountain we must climb over
This mountain we must climb
I will follow you over
We will survive

Oh won't you listen O Lord to my plea for justice
Can't you hear my cry for help
Try to heed my honest prayer
And judge me in my favor

'Cause you know my heart
You have come to me at night
But it's so hard to speak no evil
In a hole deprived of light

So I pray for you to answer
And to turn to me and smile
Shower me with love to save me
From demons deep inside

Protect me as you would your own eyes
In the shadows of your wings
And learn to know the sound that echoes
When an innocent man sings
When an innocent man sings
When he sings

So I lie with all my failures
Praying to my best friend's ghost
Time to kneel instead of sitting
And let me do thy bidding
Won't you let me do thy bidding yeah
Help me do thy bidding

A small group of boys walks down the street
Throwing a ball in the air
One says to another
Hey I'll always be your brother
I'll always be your friend

[Chorus:]
Do you remember
When we thought we were immortal
And the games we played always had a happy end
But in the game of life all the roses wither
And time writes its lines upon your face

Summer's here and three young men
Drive through the town in the night air
When fall comes they'll part again
One turns to another and he says

[Chorus]

It's three A.M. and he's been feeling lonely
Work's been hard and the city's hard too
He picks up the phone and halfway across the country
A brother listens to his blues he says

[Chorus]

Lift your voices loud and clearly
Sing for brotherhood right now
Lift your voices loud and clearly
Sing for sisterhood right now

Sometimes I wish
That we all were immortal
And the game of life always had a happy end
But I know it's not true oh time keeps passing
But I'm just glad to spend my time
With you

Lift your voices loud and clearly
Sing for brotherhood right now
Lift your voices loud and clearly
Sing for sisterhood right now

When I was just a young boy
My mama said to me
Don't fall in love willingly

Now that is all forgotten
Unwilling memory

But if you change your mind
I will walk the line
I'll follow....
Willingly

We used to talk about it
But now it seems the wind has blown your way
And I have come to doubt it
That you and I will ever love again

'Cause good enough is one thing
That I will never be
And I admit it all
Willingly

And now the times are changing
The things I've seen before don't look the same
My life is rearranging
But falls apart with whispers of your name

And though I swear to love you
With all sincerity
I'll slowly fade away
Willingly

The sun is on my shoulders
Perhaps it's colder for I've lost some pride
Or maybe it's the absence
Of all the joy I felt right by your side

And when the storm was over
I found your memory
And I will hold it warm
Willingly

No fog clear in the moonlight
The stars shine so bright now's the time
I close my eyes - soft wind touch my face
Cool sand upon the place where I once kissed you
And held you close
Now I will reach for the stars
Because Oh my love, that's where you are

[Chorus:]
Though the storms of black night rage on
I still see your face
I still feel your lips on mine
And though my heart feels all alone without you
I still hear you sing to me
I still hear your voice on the sea

Waves crash break the silence
Gulls cry a song of lament
I walk on through the stormy night
The air cries flash of anger
Dark night enshrouds the stranger all alone without you
Now I will reach for the stars
Because Oh my love, that's where you are

[Chorus]

No fog clear in the moonlight
The stars shine so bright now's the time
I close my eyes - soft wind touching my face
Cool sand upon the place where I once kissed you
And held you close
Now I will reach for the stars
Because Oh my love, that's where you are

[Chorus]

We met as two total strangers
As many lovers often do
But who could have ever seen the danger
I didn't know I'd fall in love with you

You are this lonely picker's daydream
Like a wish that's wishing to come true
So Liberty just know I'm waiting
To share this love song with you

[Chorus]
But do you think about me when you're lying in his bed
Won't you take the time to explain
Do you ever think you'd rather be with me instead
Or do you only think about me when it rains

We shared some special nights together
We said we'd watch the morning rise
But when the sun was all around us
Wasn't nothing I hadn't seen in your eyes

I try so hard to keep it hidden
But I am hurting deep inside
For every time I've seen you smile
There are two times that I have cried

[Chorus]

Now and forever my love will be the same
I will be waiting underneath the pouring rain.

I know it's been a long road
To get these towns behind me and I
Will gladly reap what we may sow I am
There for you and you're there for me

I stopped believing
a long time ago
And it's you I keep seeing
And I won't let you go

[Chorus:]
Are you waiting for
Heart in hand
Woman and man
See me where I stand I am
Heart
Heart in hand

These fields may hold a hunting ground
But the wolves are far behind me and I
Hear the howls and the distant sound
Of the messengers lost at sea

Into the morning light
Followed by madness
Reach through the empty fight
Searching through sadness

[Chorus]

I know it's been a long road
To get these fears behind me and I
Will gladly reap what we may sow I am
There for you and you're there for me

I stopped believing
a long time ago
And it's you I keep seeing
And I won't let you go

[Chorus]

An old man lying by the road
Black is night
He's got his finger on the trigger
An easy target in sight
He's got no future, no family tree
He's got a three dollar bottle
And he drinks 'till he can't see
All night, all night.....

A young girl waiting on a line
Eight a.m., she's got a six month old burden
Willpower's withering thin
An unwed mother beaten by her trade
Each week her welfare reminds her
Of mistakes she never made
Oh no.....

[Chorus]
Now what has that to say about tomorrow
What has that to show for today
Noah thought to build an ark
Before the heavens washed it all away
Away...

A baby crying through a dream
An afterthought
Mother is seething for pleasure
After the poison is bought
His eyes are tainted, staggered is his breath
Oh God, he's addicted
Addicted to death
Oh, no...

[Chorus]

Hold my thoughts I'm at an impasse
Past the place I stopped before
The sweeper's sweeping fragments
Of my head out the door

And the ice it burns upon my forehead
The calmness starts to scream
Must I always hold the upright
When my soul longs to dream

[Chorus:]
Is it too much to find an answer
Is it too much to hold you close
Is it too much to find a reason
Is it too much to free my soul
From self control

I can't get it any better
I always end up killing time
Time for love and time for living
Time to find what's really mine

[Chorus Twice]

And I know you're always waiting for me
You take me far away
And I know you're holding me
And it's better now . . .
And it's better now . . .
And it's better now . . .

Oh I know
That things are gonna change
The only thing for certain
Is that nothing stays the same
But all I want
Is love from you
Give me your hand
To hold on to
And if tears fill your eyes
Listen to my music it's no surprise

[Chorus:]
I don't want to be famous in life
I don't want to be famous in the world
I just want to be famous
Famous
I want to be famous in your heart

Oh I know
The wind is gonna blow
And in the winter
There's sure to be snow
But with the warmth of your smile
And the sun of your face
Shine on me in the darkness
With your love and grace
And if time hides my eyes
Listen to my music and recognize

[Chorus]

And if time hides my eyes
Listen to my music
Listen to my music and recognize

[Chorus]
