BECAUSE

Verse 1:
I’m foolish and I’m reckless never stay in one place long
I’m living life from day to day, anywhere I can belong
I get into moving and it gets into me
I’ve made my bed and I lay in it
That’s the way it’s gonna be

Chorus:
I am the way I am
You are the way you are
Don’t ask me why ‘cause I don’t know
It’s just because

Verse 2:
You don’t have to say I love you just because you do
Words don’t ever mean a thing, it’s your actions that hold true
Every time you tell a lie it all comes down on you
That’s the way it always goes
There’s nothing you can do

Chorus:
I am the way I am
You are the way you are
Just like planet Earth goes spinning ‘round among the stars
I am the way I am
You are the way you are
Don’t ask me why ‘cause I don’t know
It’s just because

Bridge:
When you’re feeling bored to the core
Just go on out beyond your front door
And nothing is the same anymore

Verse 3:
I’m foolish and I’m reckless never stay in one place long
I’m living life from day to day, anywhere I can belong

Chorus

BIGGER THAN US

Verse 1:
I hope you’re happy wherever you may be
I hope that sometimes you think about me
When you’re in the shower, when you’re all alone
Listen my message on your answer phone

Verse 2:
If you would pardon a few bad habits of mine
Four letter words I don’t mean to be unkind
Please ignore me when I bitch and whine
And you will be the biggest saint of all time

Chorus:
We all are part of something bigger
We all are part of something bigger
We all are part of something bigger
Than us

Verse 3:
I could be almost anything I wanna be
As long as I got room to breathe and wishes are free
Here we all are dreaming in red, white and blue
Doing almost anything we want to do

BRING OUT THE CANDLES

INTRO:

Verse 1
There is a single mother living down the block
She takes the bus to work, sometimes she has to walk
She has three small children, a girl and two boys
They don’t get enough to eat and play with broken toys

CHORUS:
Bring out the candles and bask in the light
Of a warm cozy fire place on cold winter nights
And dream of snow fairies and bright Christmas trees
And may a choir of sweet angels sing you to sleep

Verse 2
Every time you eat a chocolate from a ten pound box
Remember the homeless man with holes in his socks
His name is Ol’ Jarhead and he carries a tin cup
Asking for your spare change or anything you got

CHORUS

Verse 3
Think about the new stuff you just bought but you don’t need
And think about the people who have lost everything
Open up your pocketbook and break your penny jar
And you will feel something like love burning in your heart

CHORUS (twice)

OUTRO:

DON'T WAKE ME

Verse1:
Don’t wake me up if I am dreaming
Turn out the light as you are leaving
You know I’ve been a little bit wild
But now I’m sleeping like a child
Kiss my once or twice before you go

Verse 2:
I close my eyes and see your face
Your strong warm body I embrace
And my reflection in your eyes
I get so dizzy deep inside
Feeling naked I try to find a place to hide

Chorus:
And I call your name in the dark
And I call your name in the dark
Over and over
Over and over again

Verse 3:
Don’t wake me up when I am sleeping
I could lay here forever dreaming
I get a vision in my head
You come and creep into my bed
And I don’t ever want to see the light of day

Chorus

DRINKING ALONE
Will Birch / Graham Revell

INTRO:

Verse 1:
Sittin’ on a bar stool in a lonely saloon
Waitin’ for a friend to phone
Lookin’ at the clock, shootin’ at the moon
It ain’t easy when you’re drinkin’ alone

Verse 2:
The bar is getting crowded and you’re fed up to the teeth
Now you’re in the twilight zone
Don’t wanna leave your seat, but you’re busting for a leak
It ain’t easy when you’re drinking alone

Chorus:
Some people like their fun
Some people like their liquor
Yeah, Whiskey’s pretty good, but Gin is so much quicker
And you never wanna go, so set ‘em up Joe
It ain’t easy when you’re drinkin’ alone
It ain’t easy when you’re drinkin’ alone

SOLO

Verse 3:
And now it’s getting late, closing time is near
Still waitin’ for that friend to phone
You really oughta go, but have another beer
It ain’t easy when you’re drinkin’ alone

Chorus:
It ain’t easy when you’re drinkin’ alone

EAST OF THE SUN, WEST OF THE MOON

Verse1:
These clean bare feet could take me far
Take a whip to my back, take a knife to my heart
You can’t hold me back, try and stop me now
I can’t help myself, I don’t know how

Chorus:
East of the sun, West of the moon
I would lie, I would cheat, even steal for you
East of the sun, West of the moon
I will run away with you

Verse 2:
You were born with a silver spoon in your mouth
Oh you have no fears and you have no doubts
The moon and stars you could take with ease
You’ve got everything, including me

Chorus

Bridge:
Cross my heart and hope to die
I want you bad, now I can’t lie

INTRO

Chorus:

Verse 1: Every little snowflake has a shape of its own
Some like stars or a perfect full moon
And tonight I’ll hold my hand out to catch a few
Here’s a heart shaped snowflake I have captured just for you

Chorus:

Verse 2:
I hope you’re keeping happy and I hope you’re keeping warm
And I hoping that you’ll be with me
Here in front of the fire with our glasses raised
Drinking to each other and better days

Chorus:

Verse 3:
Here’s a toast to your good fortune, here’s a toast to your good health
Here’s a toast to peace on Earth
And here’s a toast to your loved ones wherever they might be
And here’s a toast to you, Baby, and here’s a toast to me

Chorus:

Tag: Here’s a heart shaped snowflake I am holding just for you.

FULL MOON OVER BABYLON

Verse 1:
Mission bells are ringing all over today
For an innocent who got in someone’s way
And somewhere in the night the bad guys hiding in the dark
Laughing ‘cause they think they got away

Verse 2:
Ambulance arriving as a cop car pulls away
Having interviewed a witness who went blind
Blinded by the bright lights of the television crews
Filming all the drama they can find

Chorus:
There’s a full moon over Babylon
For the guilty and the innocent too
A full moon over Babylon
While Heaven hides inside of you

Verse 3:
Mission bells are ringing all over today
For the killers who were just caught by surprise
And as the red sun goes down into the west
An ancient silver light is on the rise

Chorus:
There’s a full moon over Babylon
For the guilty and the innocent too
A full moon over Babylon
Seeing everything we do
