Red Sky in the Morning
Red sky in the morning, storm’s comin’, Red sky in the morning, storm’s comin’. Want some shelter, be my shelter, my darlin’.
Our tears like rain are fallin,, Like rain our tears keep fallin’. Hold out your arms, embrace me stop our crying’.
You’re like a bird flyin’, tryin’ to guide our way. Against strong winds, you beat your wings. And fly all day.
I’ll build us a nest, in a tall, tall tree, I’ll build us a nest, in a tall, tall tree. After the storm I’ll wait for you to come to me.
The Crash
Just when I think my life’s on track, A train comes at me; pushes me back.
Chorus Everybody knows, our kind of love can’t last, Everybody hears, the crash.
I thought that we were lifetime lovers, Now I find out we’re just losers.
Did God put me here just to cry? And when I need the truth; I get a lie.
How come I’m always the last to know? Tell me this nightmare ain’t so.
BREAK: V/C
Someday I’ll wake up and find the sun, Someday I’ll find a lovin’ one.
Everybody knows, our kind of love can’t last, Everybody hears, the crash Everybody hears. . . the crash.
Gambler’s Game
He holds his cards close to his heart, It’s a Gambler’s game, he knows the part, If he loves too much he just might lose, Or be dealt a hand he can’t refuse.
Dealing the card’s the easy part; Love seems so easy at the start, He gets a queen and starts to slide, She’s right beside him for the ride.
’Cause it’s a sleepless night when you don’t play, It’s a single bed where the lonely lay. It’s a heartache either way, "Deal the cards" I heard him say.
She smiles; he feels the light, The gamble’s payin’ off tonight. Things speed up, she holds on tight, But he starts sweatin’ with a fright.
All too soon the stakes get raised; She’s wantin’ love, he wants to play. She starts cryin’ late at night, And every word leads to a fight. (But it’s a)

Hear the River Flow
There is a way, You and I can live, We can listen to the land, And find the peace it gives.
Rivers can’t die,and tears last just awhile. Water must flow ‘round again, and smiles will brighten days. I love you now, I always will. Nothing can take from me the things I love within.
Deep within its bed, hear the river flow, Peace will come to us when we let the river flow.
I love you now, I always will. Nothing can take from me the things I love within. GAGA

I Have Faith
I have faith, Love will see us through. --- The light of trust; ---- Will shine on me and you And open our hearts, And wash away our fears, Releasing our tears: I Have Faith.

You Reel Me In
I thought love was like an expedition, Climb the hill, and it’s relaxation. Gettin’ tired of old situations, Always lookin’ for new emotion;
Chorus: You reel me in with your sweet, sweet love, You reel me in -- feels like heaven above. You reel me in, baby, fill me up, You reel me in with your love.
I never understood true loves appeal, I thought give and take was just makin’ deals. You opened up my heart, and now I can feel- I’m spinnin’ ‘round your emotional wheel, yeah, Sing Chorus Inst. V Before you, love was such a bore; Didn’t know what romance was for. You came along, and opened that door, Now my life ain’t borin’ no more, No, You reel me in with your sweet, sweet love, You reel me in, feels like heaven above. You reel me in, and fill me up, You reel me in with your love. You reel me in
Sunny Sunday Blues
Sunday, goin’ slow, can’t wait for it to go. Nothin’ much to do, sunny Sunday blues.
Sun is much too strong, must be somethin’ wrong These days keep draggin’ on, without your song.
Chores to do , pay the bills, sun heatin’ up the hills. It tests my will so much time to kill.
Kids playing in the street, hear the sound of little feet. My man he’s out of town, always gets me down.
The Way You Love Me
I like the way you hold me, Through the darkness of my night, You’re a bridge to my own light, I know thing’s will be all right.
You’re the whisper of sunshine, Through clouds on a stormy day, The rainbow and pathway That help me find my way.
I like the way you hear me, through my anger and pain, You don’t try to stop the rain, And force the sun out again.
You’re the whisper of sunshine, through clouds on a stormy day, The rainbow and pathway that help me find my way.
Inst V/C
I like the way you love me, It’s a sweet and gentle love; Like the breeze on the summer seas; the cooing of the dove.
You’re the whisper of sunshine, through clouds on a stormy day, The rainbow and pathway that help me find my way. The rainbow and pathway that help me find my way.
Bring It On Home
The world’s in so much pain; Everybody knows; Read it in the news, feel it in the air; We lose.
Brothers and sisters, momma’s and dad’s, Who’s gonna fight, Who’s gonna win; Who’s right?
All I really want; All I really need, Is love. . . Bring it on, Bring it on home. . . Bring it on home.
I don’t really think, war can bring us peace; Take away our fear, find light in the night; or know what’s fair. Power and fame, are just empty shells. Gimme something real, the smile on your face; the earth to feel.
All I really want; All I really need, Is love. . . Bring it on, Bring it on home. . . Bring it on home.
I Want To Live In Peace
I want to live in peace, I want to live in peace, Let compassion be my release, So we can live in peace.
Release the hate that binds me, Release the hate that binds me, Light my love for all the world to see, Release the hate that binds me.
Chorus
Shed the fear grown so tall, Shed the fear grown so tall. There is no wall so great that it can’t fall, When we shed the fear grown so tall. Chorus Inst. We’re one like the waters in the seas, We’re one like the waters in the seas, Your heart and mine beat in harmony, We’re one like the waters in the seas. Ch Inst. Ch 3x’s Inst 4x’s
Adios, My Sweet Amigo
I’m in your arms, Wish I could stay here all night, And feel your charms.
’Cause the nights are long When I’m out on the road, And I’m all alone, And a long way from home with no love Of my own.
Adios, my sweet amigo, When I go, please don’t shut the door. Hasta luego, mi amor, I hope we meet again on sunny shores.
You’ve got a way, Of tellin’ me how you feel, And I wanta stay With you forever and a day and Always play.
But the sun’s gone down; Work’s callin’ me away, Train’s leavin’ town, but I hope you’ll remember me when I’m not around.
Adios, my sweet amigo, When I go, Please don’t shut the door. Hasta luego, mi amor, I hope we meet again on sunny shores.
