"The Real Thing"


Amanda, I know what you're thinking,
You and I have much to say,
And you've been making you crazy,
Trying to understand
But it's impossible at your age.

I know I said I'll always try,
But you're going to bed alone again tonight,
And you lie there in the dark and wonder why.

I did it for you, and the boys,
Because love should teach you joy,
And not the imitation,
That your mama and daddy tried to show you.
I did it for you, and for me,
And because I still believe,
There's only one thing,
You can never give up,
Or ever compromise on,
And that's the Real Thing you need in love.

You're so afraid your life is over,
And nothing I can say can change your mind.
How can anybody be so selfish,
And treat you all so cruel,
Go on and scream at me and cry
I'll always hold you in my soul,
And I'm never going to leave you all alone
But your daddy doesn't live here anymore.

I did it for you, and the boys,
Because love should teach you joy,
And not the imitation,
That your mama and daddy tried to show you.
I did it for you, and for me,
And because I still believe,
There's only one thing,
That you can never give up,
Never compromise on,
And that's the real thing you need in love.

Everybody's got a boat upon the ocean,
Not everybody's sailing out to sea,
And is there someone there for me?
I'm ready to believe.

I did it for you, and the boys,
Because love should teach you joy,
And not the imitation,
That your mama and daddy tried to show you.
I did it for you, and for me,
And because I still believe,
There's only one thing,
That you can never give up,
Never compromise on,
And that's the real thing you need in love.

"The Puppy Song"
(with daughter Bella)



Dreams are nothing more than wishes
And a wish's just a dream, wish to come true

If only I could have a puppy, I'd call myself so very lucky
Just to have some company to share a cup of tea with me

I'd take my puppy everywhere, la, la, la, la I wouldn't care
Then we'll stay away from crowds with signs that say no dogs allowed
Oh we, I know he'd never bite me, we, I know he'd never bite me

If only I could have a friend who sticks with me until the end
And walk along beside the sea to share a bit of moon with me

I'd take my friend most everywhere, la, la, la, la I wouldn't care
And we'll stay away from crowds with signs that say no friends allowed
Oh we, we'd be so happy to be, we, we'd be so happy to be together

But dreams are nothing more than wishes
And a wish's just a dream, you wish to come true

Dreams are nothing more than wishes
(Your wish will come true)
And a wish's just a dream
(Your wish will come true)
Your wish to come true
(Your wish will come true)

Your wish will come true
Your wish will come true
Your wish will come true

Dreams are nothing more than wishes
(Your wish will come true)
And a wish's just a dream
(Your wish will come true)
Your wish to come true
(Your wish will come true)

"The Undeniable Groove"


Have you ever wondered how you chose
The life that you have led?
How a million rivers run between the heart and the head
It ain’t easy, though
You need to know
The line between right and wrong
You’re stuck in the middle
But when you’re in it
Some things are undeniable

Full throttle on a Saturday night
Let’s celebrate it
Truth is I only came
To see ya raise ‘em up tonight
So glad you made it
When it’s so right
It’s so real
If you ever wonder
What you really feel
No need to doubt it

[Chorus]
It’s an undeniable groove
It’s the only viable truth
When it’s real love
There’s no way you can lose
It’s an undeniable
Totally reliable
Undeniable groove

You’re the harvest of
A million years of evolution
Let’s celebrate it
Every time ya try to make it, baby
Ya start a revolution
So glad ya made it

When it’s so real
It’s so deep
Truth is you could’ve done it in your sleep
No doubt about it

[Repeat Chorus]

But it’s easy to freak when you see that your heart’s
Sittin’ in the palm of your hand
You’re bound to doubt if you’re where you belong
But don’t lose your head
Because your heart knows where you stand

It’s the better known trick
Of biology – of magic ‘n theology

[Repeat Chorus]

"The Rest Of Your Life"


Walkin' on my own,
Absolutely free,
Solitary life,
The only life for me,
Midnight caf',
Dinner alone,
Independent heart,
Is all I've ever known,

Oh I believe,
I had no one to lose,
And nobody fooled but me

Fire in the storm,
Rainbow in the night,
Lightning on the sea,
Heaven in your eyes,
Never before,
The magic of night,
It happened in my arms,
Right before my eyes

Oh, now I believe,
There's a god watching over me,
From up here, I can see the rest of my life,
It's got directions starting over,
So hold me, it's destiny,
Cause from tonight I know,
You know the rest of your life is mine,
How long can I be this sure,
Only for the rest of your life.

Self-assured before,
Had it figured out,
All I didn't know,
Is what it's all about,
You walked into my world,
Then it came alive
I never knew before,
Why I survived.

Oh, now I believe,
There's a god watching over me,
From up here, I can see the rest of my life,
You're giving me directions starting over,
So hold me, it's destiny,
Cause from tonight I know,
You know the rest of your life is mine,

Whoa, oh whoa,
Whoa, I know it's over,
The past is over, ooh yeah
You can't go back to sleep,
Once you've seen what you have seen
And know what you know about love.

Over
Hold me, it's destiny,
And from tonight I know,
You know the rest of your life is mine,
How long can I be this sure,
Only for the rest of your life.

"There Is A Mountain"
(with daughter Hana)



First there is a moutain, then there is no mountain, then there is.

"The Unimaginable Life"


I know we were born to be here again
In the kind of love that you die for
Somethin' in the innocent wind's
Been callin' out to me
Over 'n over

I would build a castle upon our dreams
Or leave it all behind us in ashes
Just to feel your heart in my heart
A promise and a prayer
To lead 'n to follow
Voices that call
From an ancient dream
Remind me of a world I've never known

[Chorus:]
We are the bridge
We are the fire
'N I burn in a river of love
And now I can sing with all my heart

Oh I believe
All that I've seen in your eyes
An Unimaginable Life

Something in the way that you say hello
Even to the sound of your heart beat
All seems so familiar to me
My soul-memory of love
Leading me homeward

Voices that call from an ancient dream
The promise of a life I've never known

We are the bridge
We are the fire
And I burn in a river of love

I know I can sing
With all my heart
Here it begins
Freedom is in your eyes
An Unimaginable Life

[Chorus]

'N I know I can sing
With all my heart
Oh I believe
Darlin' that we've arrived
An Unimaginable Life
Our Unimaginable Life

"This Is It"


There've been times in my life
I've been wonderin' why
Still, somehow I believed we'd always survive
Now, I'm not so sure
You're waiting here
One good reason to try
But, what more can I say
What's left to provide

(You think that maybe it's over)
(Only if you want it to be)
Are you gonna wait for a sign, your miracle
Stand up and fight

(This is it)
Make no mistake where you are
(This is it)
You back's to the corner
(This is it)
Don't be a fool anymore
(This is it)

The waiting is over, no, don't you run
No way to hide
No time for wonderin' why
It's here, the moment is now, about to decide
Let 'em believe
Leave 'em behind
But keep me near in your heart
Know whatever you do
I'm here by your side

(You say that maybe it's over)
(Not if you don't want it to be)
For once in your life
Here's your miracle
Stand up and fight

(This is it)
Make no mistake where you are
(This is it)
You're goin' no further
(This is it)
Until it's over and done

(No one can tell you what you know)
Whoa-oh-ho, whoa-aaah
(Who makes the choice of how it goes)
It's not up to me this time
(You know)
Comes a day in every life

(This is it)
Make no mistake where you are
(This is it)
You're goin' no further
(This is it)
Until it's over and done
(This is it)
One way or another
(This is it)
(No one can tell what the future holds)
(This is it)
Your back's to the corner
(This is it)
(You make the choice of how it goes)
(This is it)
The waiting is over
(This is it)
(No one can tell what the future holds)
(This is it)
You're goin' no further
(This is it)

"This Is How My Song Goes"


I can still hear you say
“Give up on yourself
You give up on me”
Oh, mother of my children
Anchor of my soul
With all that I’ve been given
I should thank the Lord
And if life is just a tale to tell
I don’t want a tragedy
I want a love story
All I’ve ever known
Been my beacon home
It’s the water of my soul
All I’ve ever known
It’s my blood ‘n bone
It’s the water of my soul

This is how my song goes
This is how my song goes
Anywhere the wind blows
This is how my song goes

I tried to see myself
Through the mirror of the world
But the image returned
Distorted and cracked
The more that I travel
The more it comes back
To you and me
And all the simple things
It’s the song we sing

This is how my song goes
This is how my song goes
No matter wherever the wind blows
This is how my song goes

This is how my song goes
This is how my song goes
Where there used to be walls I got windows
This is how my song goes

"This Island Earth"


When will we know love?
When will we listen to heaven above?
And how will we return?
Someone said that we've been tempting fate
But I believe this song just wouldn't come if it's too late.

[Chorus:]
When will we see a light upon the ocean.
Shining like a star
That leads us ever onward
There's a new world waiting
When will we see rebirth
This Island Earth

Maybe our moment is gone
Maybe we've stood and watched
A moment too long
So why do I believe?
Someone said
That the truth's too much to take
But tell me how we can face it
If we only want to look the other way

[Chorus]

To a new beginning
Shine for all it's worth
This Island Earth

Why, what will we say to the angry child,
Try to explain away her fears while we're crying burning tears
Maybe it's time to cry the tear that matters

[Chorus]

Oh as we sail
Through the stars
We're alive on this island of ours

"To-Ra-Loo-Ra"


Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral
Too-ra-loo-ra-li
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral
Hush now, don't you cry

Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral
Too-ra-loo-ra-li
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral
That's an Irish lullaby

Over in Killarney, many years ago
My mother sang a song to me in tones so soft and low
Just a simple little ditty in her good old Irish way
And I'd give the world if I could hear that song of hers
Today

Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral
Too-ra-loo-ra-li
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral
Hush now, don't you cry

Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral
Too-ra-loo-ra-li
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral
That's an Irish lullaby
