Heaven is a Place on Earth

(Rick Nowels/ Ellen Shipley)

Ooh, baby, do you know what that’s worth?

Ooh heaven is a place on earth

They say in heaven love comes first

We’ll make heaven a place on earth

Ooh heaven is a place on earth

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nPOy7TPjfkE

When the night falls down

I wait for you

And you come around

And the world’s alive

With the sound of kids

On the street outside

When you walk into the room

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-erG1hFbv4

You pull me close and we start to move

And we’re spinning with the stars above

And you lift me up in a wave of love...

Ooh, baby, do you know what that’s worth?

Ooh heaven is a place on earth

They say in heaven love comes first

We’ll make heaven a place on earth

Ooh heaven is a place on earth

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sH8oSVs_spg

When I feel alone

I reach for you

And you bring me home

When I’m lost at sea

I hear your voice

And it carries me

In this world we’re just beginning

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bWcASV2sey0

To understand the miracle of living

Baby I was afraid before

But I’m not afraid anymore

Ooh, baby, do you know what that’s worth?

Ooh heaven is a place on earth

They say in heaven love comes first

We’ll make heaven a place on earth

Ooh heaven is a place on earth

In this world we’re just beginning

To understand the miracle of living

Baby I was afraid before

But I’m not afraid anymore

Ooh, baby, do you know what that’s worth?

Ooh heaven is a place on earth

They say in heaven love comes first

We’ll make heaven a place on earth

Ooh heaven is a place on earth

I Get Weak

(Diane Eve Warren)

When I’m with you

I shake inside

My heart’s all tangled up

My tongue is tied it’s crazy

Can’t walk, can’t talk, can’t eat, can’t sleep

Oh, I’m in love, oh I’m in deep ‘cuz baby

With a kiss you can strip me defenceless

With a touch I completely lose control

‘Til all that’s left of my strength is a memory, wo...

I get weak when I look at you

Weak when we touch

I can’t speak when I look in your eyes

I get weak when you’re next to me

Weak from this love

I can’t speak when I look in your eyes

I get weak

Convincing eyes, persuasive lips

The helpless heart just can’t resist their power

You know you’ve got a hold over me

You know you’ve got me where I want to be ‘cuz lover

Like a wave you keep pulling me under

How I’ll ever get out of this I don’t know

I just know there’s just no way to fight it, wo...

I get weak when I look at you

Weak when we touch

I can’t speak when I look in your eyes

I get weak when you’re next to me

Weak from this love

I’m in deep when I look in your eyes

I get weak I get weak I get weak

Just a kiss you can strip me defenceless

Just a touch I completely lose control

‘Til all that’s left of my strength is a memory, wo...

I get weak when I look at you

Weak when we touch

I can’t speak when I look in your eyes

I get weak when you’re next to me

Weak from this love

I can’t speak when I look in your eyes

I get weak I get weak I get weak

Circle in the Sand

(Ellen Shipley/ Rick Nowels)

Sundown all around

Walking through the summer’s end

Waves crash baby, don’t look back

I won’t walk away again

Oh, baby, anywhere you go,

We are bound together

I begin, baby, where you end

Some things are forever!

Circle in the sand

‘Round and ‘round

Never ending love is what we’ve found

And you complete the heart of me

Our love is all we need

Circle in the sand

Cold wind, tide move in

Shiver in the salty air

Day breaks, my heart aches

I will wait for you right here.

Oh, baby when you look for me

Can you see forever?

I begin baby, where you end

We belong together

Circle in the sand

‘Round and ‘round

Rising of the moon as the sun goes down

And you complete the heart of me

Our love is all we need

Circle in the sand

Circle in the sand

Baby can you hear me?

Can you hear me calling?

Leave a Light On

(Rick Nowels/ Ellen Shipley)

Take my hand

Tell me what you are feeling

Understand

This is just the beginning

Although I have to go

It makes me feel like crying

I don’t know when I’ll see you again

Darling leave a light on for me

I’ll be there before you close the door

To give you all the love that you need

Darling leave a light on for me

‘cause when the world takes me away

You are still the air that I breathe

I can’t explain I just don’t know

Just how far I have to go

But darling I’ll keep the key

Just leave a light on for me

Yes I know

What I’m asking is crazy

You could go

Just get tired of waiting

But if I lose your love

Torn out by my desire

That would be the one regret of my life

Just like a spark lights up the dark

Baby that’s your heart

We Want the Same Thing

(Rick Nowels/ Ellen Shipley)

Here is my case

We’ve got no time to waste

Cuz we want the same thing

We’re fighting a war

But we don’t know what for

Cuz we want the same thing

I know we’re different now

Different as night and day

But still want you near

I just want you to stay

I wanna take this chance

I want to be with you

Cuz what you’re looking for

I am looking for too

We dream the same thing

We want the same thing ...ooh...

And all that we need is to

See it together

We dream the same dream

We want the same thing ...ooh...

For now, for love, forever, amen

I look in your eyes and

I know deep inside that

We want the same thing

Breaking the chains that

Just keep us in shame

Cuz we want the same thing

No matter what we say

No matter what we do

Beyond the battlelines

Baby we know what’s true

We dream the same thing

We want the same thing ...ooh...

And all that we need is to

See it together

We dream the same dream

We want the same thing ...ooh...

For now, for love, forever, amen

Summer Rain

(Maria Vidal/ Robert Seidman)

Whispering our goodbyes

Waiting for a train

I was dancing with my baby

In the summer rain

I can hear him saying

Nothing will change

Come dancing with me baby

In the summer rain

I remember the rain on our skin

And his kisses hotter than the

Santa Ana winds

Whispering our goodbyes

Waiting for a train

I was dancing with my baby

In the summer rain

I remember laughing til we almost cried

(There at station that night)

I remember looking in his eyes

Oh my love, it’s you and that I dream of

Oh my love, since that day

Somewhere in my heart I’m always

Dancing with you in the summer rain

Doesn’t matter what I do now

Doesn’t matter what I say

Somewhere in my heart I’m always

Dancing with you in the summer rain

I can hear the whistle

Military train

I was dancing with my baby

In the summer rain

I can here him singing

Ooh “Love Is Strange”

Come dance with me baby

In the summer rain

I remember the rain pouring down

And we poured our hearts out

As the train pulled out

I can see my baby

Waving from the train

It was last time that I saw him

In the summer rain

Every time I see the lightening

Every time I hear the thunder

Every time I close the window

When this happens in the summer

Oh the night is so inviting

I can feel that you are so close

I can feel you when the wind blows

Blows right through my heart

Every night and every day now

Though I know you’ve gone away

Somewhere in my heart I’m always

Dancing with you in the summer rain

Live Your Life, Be Free (Rick Nowels/ Ellen Shipley)

I see you walking with her

I see you all around

But you don’t seem very happy now

You seem very down

I know you feel an obligation

To her emotional state of mind

But this is the time of your life baby

And you should be having a good time

And if you want me I’ll be there

To run my fingers through your hair

If you need me it’s alright

Come on over baby, and see me tonight (you’ve got to)

Live your life be free

Live your life be free

Open up your mind and you will see

You should be with me

You know that I’ll be waiting

You know my heart is true

I will be your everything

And give everything to you

So is you want me baby, I’m yours

You don’t have to knock, kick down my doors

Rules are made to be broken every day

You got one life to live, so hey (why don’t you)

Live your life be free

Live your life be free

Open up your heart and you will see

You should be with me, baby

You should be with me

Live your life be free

Live your life be free

And when you free you mind

You will leave your past behind

Live your life be free

Live your life be free

Open up your eyes and you will see

You should be with me, baby

You should be with me

Live your life be free

Live your life be free

Open up your heart and you will see

You should be with me baby

You should be with me
