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
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
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
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
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
