Album Lyrics

(Not Including "TELL ME WHY")

DANNY BOY

Oh danny boy the pipes are calling.
From glen to glen and down the mountain side.
The summers gone and all the flowers are dying.
Tis you tis you must go and I must bide.

But come ye back when the summers in the meadow.
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow.
Tis i'll be here, in the sunshine or in the shadow.
Oh Danny Boy, Oh Danny Boy, I love you so.

And if you come when all the flowers are dying.
If i am dead as dead I well may be.
I pray you'll find the place where i am lying
And kneel and say an ave there for me.

And I shall hear thruogh soft you tread above me
And all my graves shall warmer sweeter be.
Then you will kneel and whisper that you love me
And i shall sleep in peace until you come to me.
And i shall sleep in peace until you come to me.


CARICKFERGUS

I wish I was in Carickfergus.
Where she is waiting, my rainbows end.
I would swim over the deepest ocean
Just to see her sweet smile again.

Corous:
But the sea is wide and Icannot get over.
Nor have iI the wings to fly.
I wish I new a friendly boatman
To ferry me back to my sweatheart's side.

I close my eyes and I remember
The fiels of green and flowers gold.
Where we would walk in sunlight meadows.
How my heart's longing to be back home.

Corous:
But the sea is wide and i cannot get over.
Nor have I the wings to fly.
So i'll just dream of Carickfergus
And the day I said goodbye.
Now and forever, my love and I.

So i'll just dream of Carickfergus
And the day i said goodbye.
Now and forever, my love and I.



IMAGINE

Imagine there's no heaven.
It's easy if you try.
No hell below us,
Above us only sky.

Imagine all the people,
Living for today.

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do.
Nothing to kill or die for.
No religion too.

Imagine all the people.
Living life in peace.

Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo

You may say i'm a dreamer.
But i'm not the only one.
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one.

Imagine no possessions.
Iwonder if you can.
No need for greed or hunger.
A brother hood of man.

Imagine all the people.
Sharing all the world.

Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo

You may say i'm a dreamer
I'm not the only one.
I hope some day you'll join us.
And the world willlive as one.

  I'LL BE THERE

You and I must make a pact.
We must bring salvation back.
Where there is love i'll be there.

I'll reach out my hand to you.
I'll have faith in all you do.
Just call my name and i'll be ther.
You know-oo-oo

Chorous:
(I'll be there to comfort you)
Build my world or dreams around.
I'm so glad that I found you.
(I'll be there with a love so strong)
I'll be your strength. I'll keep holding on.
Oo-oo

Let me fill your heart with joy and laughter.
Togetherness, well it's all i'm after.
Just call my name and i'll be there.

I'll be there to protect, Yeah baby.
With an unselfish love I respect you.
Just call my name and i'll be there.
And Oo-oo-oo

Chorous:
If you ever find someone new.
I know he better be good to you
Cos if he dosen't i'll be there.

Dont you know baby, yeah-yeah.

I'll be there, I'll be there.
Just call my name and i'll be there.
Just look over my shoulder

(I'll be there for you) I'll be there.
(I'll always be there for you)
(I'll be there for you) I'll be there.
(I'll always be there for you)
(I'll be there for you)
Just call my name and i'll be there.

Repeat to Fade


IT ALL BEGINS WITH LOVE

Rain has to fall if the flower is to grow
And the night as to come, if the moonlight is to glow.

And although my eyes my cry a thousand tears
In the end i'm sure they'll fill with laughter
And if by chance I live a million years
I beleive one thing will still be true.

Chorus:
In love I'll find the answer,
To the question,
That is written in my heart.
Have faith and it will guide me,
On my journey,
If I remember from the start,
It all begins with love.
It all begins with love.

The river as to bend on it's journey to the sea,
Then the tide as to turn, if the ocean is to breath.

Maybe I will search this world a hundred times,
Or maybe I'll find my dream tommrow.
But somewhere deep within this heart of mine
I believe one thing will never change.

Chorus:
In love I'll find the answer,
To the question,
That is written in my heart.
Have faith and it will guide me,
On my journey,
If I remember from the start,
It all begins with love.
It all begins with love, with love, with love.

Chrous:
In love I'll find the answer,
To the question,
That is written in my heart.
Have faith and it will guide me,
On my journey,
If I remember from the start,
It all begins with love.
It all begins with love.
It all begins with love.
It all begins with love.


YOUR FRIEND

If your feeling all alone,
If somebody makes you cry,
Don't you worry 'bout a thing
I'll dry your eyes.

Everything'll be allright,
The sun is gonna shine on you.
I will bring a summer breeze,
Turn your grey skies into blue.

If you need a helping hand just call me
Cos you don't have to face it on your own.

Chrous:
(Remember) Everybody needs affection,
Everybody needs a friend.
Everybody wants the same thing in this world.
(Remember) Someone who will always be there,
Right untill the very end.
No matter where you are, you can count on me,
I'll always be .... Your friend,

If you need a palce to run to,
A shelter when the rain comes down.
I'll be there to make you smile
When the circus leaves town.

And even in your darkest hour,
When every little thing goes wrong,
Let me be your satellite, I will guide you thru the night.

If you ever need a helping hand just call me
And I will come running back to you.

Chrous:
Together we will face the world
And try to live our dreams.
I'll always pick you up when you are down
And if we have to say goodbye and go our seperate ways
I want you to remember I'll always feel this way.

Chrous

Alt Chrous:
Everybody wants the same thing in this world. Please remember
No matter where you are, you can count on me,
I'll always be.... Your friend

I Love Declan
  LOVE CAN BUILD A BRIDGE

I'd gladly walk across the desert.
With no shoes upon my feet.
To shear with you the las bite
Of bread I had to eat

I would swim out to save you.
In your sea of broken dreams.
When all your hopes are sinking'
Let me show you what love means.

Chorus:
Love can build a bridge.
Between your heart and mine.
Don't ye think it's time?
Don't ye think it's time?

I would whisper love so loudly
Every heart could understand.
Love and only love
Can join the tribes of man.

I would give my hearts desire
So that you might see
The first step is to realise
It all begins with you and me.

(Repeat chorus)

When we stand together
it's our finest hour.
We can do anything, anything,
Keep beliving',
Belive in the power.

(Breakdown)

(Repeat Chorus)

Oh, love.
Love can build a bridge.
Yeah, Love.
Love can build a bridge.
With love we can build a bridge.
Don't ye think it's time?
Don't ye think it's time?


MAMA SAID

I couldn't sleep last night,
There was somethin' on my mind.
I lay there wishin in the dark,
someone could tell me why,
If you love somebody,
From the bottom of your heart,
Why do you heart each other,
How does it fall apart?

An' then i heard a voice,
As she sat down on my bed,
And i can still remember,
the words my mama said.

Chorus:
Love can give, Love can take
Love can bend and love can break.
When you think it's over, it's not the end.
Dont give in, just be strong.
And please remember son, my mama said,
There aint no broken heart love cannot mend.

My mama said, no one knows
What your life has got in store.
You may go walking on the moon,
You may be rich or poor.
But i know for certain,
If you try to reach the stars,
Anything is possible,
Your dreams are what you are.

But when it comes to matters of the heart
There is no guarantees
All that I can say to you,
Is what my mama said to me.

Chorus:
So one day in my lifetime,
When my world falls apart.
I won't cry, I'll just tell my heart
My heart......

Chorus:
Love can give, love can take
Love can bend and love can break.
When you think its over its no the end
Dont give in, just be strong
And please remember when my mama said,
There ain' t no broken heart love cannot mend.
There ain' t no broken heart love cannot mend.


TILL THE DAY WE MEET AGAIN

Well, here we are, just time for one more song,
Before another show is thru.
It's too bad the curtain as the fall,it's been a perfect night with you.

So dance and let the music play, untill we meet another day.

Chrous:
So don't say goodbye, there is no need to cry,
The love we share will never end.
Because you and me, we'll have this memory,
One we can turn to now and them.
Till the day we meet again.

So raise your hand and sing along with me,
I dedicate these words to you.
It feels as though I've known you all my life,yet this magic is so new.

So please remember when I say, good friends are never far away.

Chrous:
No looking back with regret, cos tonight, I've found here with you
something I'll never forget, wont forget.

Chrous:
Sha-la-la-la, Sha-la-la-la, Sha-la-la-la.... Till the day we meet again.

Young Voices
  AMAZING GRACE

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound.
That saved a boy like me.
I once was lost but now I'm found,
Was blind but now I see.

'Twas Grace that taught my heart to sing
And Grace my soul relived.
How precious did that Grace appear.
The hour I first believed.

If I should live ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun.
I would need more days to sing God's Praise
Than when I first begun.

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound.
The saved the boy like me.
I once was lost but now I'm found,
Was blind but now I see....I see.


CIRCLES IN THE SAND

I no your back's aganst the wall.
Nothing is easy,
The world is closing in.
But you wont let me fall,
You keep on fightin, you don't give in.

One day I will give to you, all that you deserve.
You are the sweetest thing live on this eath.

Chrous:
If I am lost upon the Ocean
You'll be the guiding star to lead me to dry land
And on the beach we'll wallk together,
Drawing circles in the sand.

In the name of love, now and forever
Always there for me.
But when the time is right
You'll be the first one to set me free.

And when I spread my wings, you'll teach me how to fly.
Although your heart will break the day we say goodbye.

Chrous:
If I am lost upon the ocean
You'll be the guiding star to lead me to dry land
And on the beach we'll walk together,
Drawing circles in the sand.

God only knows where I am going,
What kind of man will become.
But when I stand alone,out there in the world,
One thing I Know will never change,
I love you, and I will forever and a day.

Chrous:
If I am lost upon the ocean
You'll be the guiding star to lead me to dry land
And on the beach we'll walk together,
Drawing circles in the sand.

Circles in the sand.


ANGELS

I sit and waite,
Does an angle contemplate my fate?
And do they know
The places where we go when we're grey and old?

Cos I have been told that salvation
Let's their wings unfold.

So when I'm lying in my bed,
Thoughts running thru my head,
And I feel that love is dead...I'm loving angels instead.

Chorus:
And thru it all she offers me protection.
A lot of love and affection,
Whether I'm right or wrong.
And down the water fall, Wherever it may take me,
I know that life won't breake me.
When I come to call
She won't forsake me...I'm loving angles instead.

When I'm feeling weak
And my pain walks down a one way street.
I look above
And I know I'll always be blessed with love.

And as the feeling grows,
She brings flesh to my bones,
And when love is dead...I'm loving angles instead.


TWINKLE TWINKLE LITTLE STAR

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star,
How I wonder what you are?
Looking at your magic light,
Watching over us tonight.

Before my dreams take me away,
I kneel beside my bed and pray,
For all the children in the dark,
Till tommrow, twinkle littlw star....
Promise me you'll twinkle little star....
Cos everybody needs a little sar.
