I got to tell you right now, my little girl. I'm gonna hold you in my arms. I'm gonna jump and shout and scream, cause I love you so. I'm gonna, take you to the top. Gonna take you, to the top. Take you to the top. Gonna be the one to please you I know it's really true, how I feel about you. I've got a beat for you deep inside, in my heart, I know I'm gonna love you. I'm gonna love you. Gonna take you to the top. Take you to the top. I've got to tell you right now. I've told you twice. I'm always going to feel for you. Gonna squeeze and hold you tight. Michael's gonna have that special deal for you. My little deal for you. Gonna take you to the top. Take you to the top.

I Know 03:11
lyrics
buy track
I know that I know. That I love you so. I see that you see. That change in me. Whatever road you travel down. You know your feet they won't touch the ground no they won't make a sound at all. I know that I know. That I love you so. I feel that you feel. That this is real. Whatever road we travel down. If you hold on to me we'll always be home bound. Whatever road we travel down. You know our feet they won't touch the ground. No they won't make a sound at all.

Stand Up 03:13
lyrics
buy track
I'm looking out. I see the sunrise. The light shine in your hair. I just want to shout. So glad you're there. It feels so good and so free, to be in love again. To have someone to keep until the very end. Stand up and face the rising sun. Stand up, You're the only one. Stand up and fly away. If this world were mine. Just you and I alone. With you in my arms your heart will be my home. I love so strong so deep. Like the stars at night. Don't you know when my lips touch your cheek. That it feels so right. Stand up and face the rising sun. Stand up, You're the only one. Stand up and fly away.

Anthem 03:47
lyrics
buy track
Kansas wheat fields, golden waves. Georgia pines and present slaves. Hard at work in Atlanta, New York skyline glittering night. California dreaming of days in flight. San Francisco's quaking Louisiana hayride it's a Creole swamp land. Colorado gold mines spitting sand. Vermont maple syrup. Huge snowflakes. Minnesota land of lakes. A playground for Minneapolis, Minneapolis Saint Paul. Texas oil wells that rise above it all. Illinois high rise spreading growing. Chicago takes what it needs. Montana mountains big sky high. Mississippi river streaming by. St. Louis gateway. Denver, city in the sky. North Carolina the first in flight. Florida peninsula is shining bright. To be rather than to seem. The people always rule. Welcome to my home sweet home.

Not Takin It 03:51
lyrics
buy track
It's late on a Saturday night. Everyone else has gone to bed. Sitting here in my usual chair. Stories running round in my head. Then I realize what I've been missing. And I can come to a decision. I can't take it anymore. I can't take it anymore. I can’t take it anymore. Well I can’t take it anymore. Can't sleep till I figure it out. The answers in there somewhere. Not going to scream and not going to shout. Guess I'll say another prayer. Then I realize what I've been missing. And I can come to a decision. I can't take it anymore. I can't take it anymore.

Life is a Dream 03:31
lyrics
buy track
It's just a dream, but you're left with that feeling. You're wide awake, staring at the ceiling. You walk ahead, not sure which way to go. And should you care, as long as I don't let go. Because life is a dream. Life is a dream. Life is a dream. It's only a dream. Life is a dream. The air is thin. The light's getting dimmer. You look for hope but see just a glimmer. You walk ahead. Now not sure which way to go. And should you care as long as I don't let go. Because life is a dream. Life is a dream. Life is a dream. It's only a dream. Life is a dream.

Change 03:23
lyrics
buy track
Up all night here we go again. We walk for miles and miles but never reach the end. One by one now two by two. I wouldn't drag my feet if I were you. Can't you feel a change. Coming on it's getting strong. Can't you feel it rushing you. Can't you feel the spirit move. Once again we reach the shore. Tell me all you know now tell me more Keep this dream alive for me. Please tell me all you see. Can't you feel a change. Coming on it's getting strong. Can't you feel it rushing you. Can't you feel the spirit move Up all night up all day. The hours slip then drift away. Like the sands we walk upon. It blows for miles and miles and then it's gone, then it is gone. Can't you feel a change. Coming on it's getting strong. Can't you feel it rushing you. Can't you feel the spirit move

Megan Reid 03:06
lyrics

Where you going baby. So fast on your knees. Would you crawl back this way. You're Daddy's little tease. If I asked you nicely. If I beg and plead. Megan Reid. I'd like to take you sailing. Sailing in the breeze. Or riding on a motorbike sitting on Daddy's knees. It's a special kind of feeling. It will set you free. Megan Reid If I could see your future. I'd see you succeed. To make your life so special. It's all in the degrees. It may knock you over but only to your knees. Megan Reid

To The Moon 05:27
lyrics
buy track
When i see you girl it makes me smile. When i hear your voice I'm lifted to the sky. When I breathe in the air around your prefume. You know it takes me to the moon. To the moon.To the moon. Just the other day I saw you standing there. The sun was in your face and the wind was in your hair. That's when I knew that I's be with you soon and that you'd take me to the moon. To the moon. To the moon.

Never Leave 03:04
lyrics
buy track
Another peaceful morning with no run around. This old house is so quiet when you're not around. On my way up the stairs I stop and I pray. All I really want to do is see you today. I wish you'd come around and never leave. Never leave. I used to go out in the evening and I'd drive around. There's nothing at all to do in this little town. I start the car then I stop and I pray. All I really want to do is see you today. I wish you'd come around and never leave. Never Leave. I wish you'd come around. I wish you'd come around. I wish you'd come around and never leave. Never leave.

Breathe 05:05
lyrics
buy track
We're all in this. In this thing together. I guess you could say we're birds of a feather. But somethings gotta change. Somehow for the better. Cause somehow I feel. That we're in for some bad weather. We gotta listen a little better. Send someone a love letter. I'm telling ya that this worlds a keeper. Maybe we should just breathe a little deeper. Just breathe. Just breathe. Just breathe. I know it's hard when you never win. You gotta keep faith that someone will let you in. We gotta pray a little longer. Raise our children a whole lot stronger. I'm telling ya that this worlds a keeper. Maybe we should just breathe a little deeper. Just breathe. Just breathe. Just breathe. In and out, out and in, just breathing. Just breathing. Just breathe with me.
