Vox Humana

Kenny Loggins Vox Humana Lyrics
1.At Last

I can't tell you 'bout the future
I wouldn't even swear about the past
One thing i know for certain
That's when your heart stops hurting
Falling in love, caught up with me at last

Always knew it would, never had it so good
Now my time's arrived, and i'm glad i'm alive
I feel like a love today, and it won't fade away
In my heart, i know it's right
By the way that i'm sleepin at night

People say that love ain't easy
Find a little love and let it dawn
One thing i know for certain
It'll make your heart stop hurting
Falling in love, caught up with me at last

Always knew it would, never had it so good
Now my time's arrived, and i'm glad i'm alive
I feel like a love today, and it won't fade away
In my heart, i know it's right

I was out there, all on my own
And just a smile is all i was after
And then you filled my world up with laughter
What a wonderful life
I never saw it so beautiful

Oh-oh-wo-oh what a wonderful life

Always knew it would, never had it so good
Now my time's arrived, and i'm glad i'm alive
I feel like a love today, and it won't fade away
In my heart, i know it's right

Always knew it would, never had it so good
Now my time's arrived, and i'm glad i'm alive
I feel like a love today, and it won't fade away
In my heart, i know it's right


2.Forever

Now, while we're here alone
And all is said and done
Now i can let you know
Because of all you've shown
I've grown enough to tell you
You'll always be inside of me
How many roads have gone by
So many words left unspoken
I needed to be by your side
If only to hold you
Chorus:
Forever in my heart
Forever we will be
And even when i'm gone
You'll be here in me
Forever
Once, i dreamed that you were gone
I cried out trying to find you
I begged the dream to fade away
And please awaken me
But night took a hold of my heart
And left me with no one to follow
The love that i lost to the dark
I'll always remember
Forever in my heart
Forever we will be
And know that when i'm gone
You'll be here in me
Forever in my heart
You always thought i'd be
I'd be yours
Forever....


3.I'll Be There

Stand or fall
The love you have is all you have to give
As long as you live

On your own
You're never all alone
There'll be a light to guide you on
Remember that love is there

(stand your ground)
(stand your ground)
You made it this far, baby
Don't let it go
(stand your ground)
(stand your ground)
This is the moment for you know, ohh

(i'll be there)
(to hold you in my heart)
Cause our love is forever
(i'll be there)
I'll never let us drift apart
I'll be there for you

Comes a day
Feels so filed away, so far to go
You should know by now

(i'll see you)
You're free
(i know)
How we used to be
(don't need no heart)
You've got the power do whatever you desire
You're gonna bet to win, you're a survivor

(stand your ground)
Ohhhhhh
(stand your ground)
??????? wherever ?????? darling, ohh

(i'll be there)
(to hold you in my heart)
Cause our love is forever
(i'll be there)
I'll never let us drift apart
I'll be there for you

(i'll be there)
(when you need to feel the love)
(when your love lasts forever)
(i'll be there)
My heart is gonna be around
(you gotta love)
(you gotta love)
(you know you got my love)
Ohhhh
(you gotta love)
(you gotta love)
(you know you got my love)
Oh my love
(you gotta love)
(you gotta love)
(you know you got my love)

Woooo

(i'll be there)
(to hold you in my heart)
Cause our love is forever
(i'll be there)
I'll never let us drift apart
(i'll be there for you)

(i'll be there)
(when you need to feel the love)
Cause our love is forever
(i'll be there)
My heart is gonna be around
(i'll be there for you)

{ad lib and fade to end}


4.I'm Gonna Do It Right

Waitin' for the night to fade
Here on a foreign shore
And all i've done is run away
Like too many nights before

Its taken far too long
To make my world my own
I'm gonna try
'cause this time round
I've made my mind up

Chorus:
If i think about leavin'
I'm gonna do it right, alright
'n if i'm thinkon' about holdin' on
I'm gonna do it right

Never been known to lie to me
Ain't gonna start in now
I've never been one for hide and seek
So what's all this endless doubt about

I know just what i'll do
I've got to make my move
'n i'll be fine
'cause this time round
I've made my mind up

Chorus:
Then bridge:
Don't matter what you do
Just get to doin'
It'll come to you

No more maybe
No more baby
No more 'save me'

And if i want to live my life
I gotta get it up to do it right
And if i want to feel alright
Gotta shed a little light on me tonight

Oh, hold on, hold on

Repeat chorus to fade


5.Let There Be Love

Love can be a game for two
But a real love
Take ya more than a lttle bit of time

Ya gotta keep on makin' it
Though your arms are achin'
Your knees are shakin'
Your heart keeps breakin' down
That's what life is about

Chorus:
Oh wo
Let there be music
Let there be candlelight
Let there be love
Let there be young hearts
Sendin' up hungry sparks
Let there be love

Life
Like a smile in the big boy's eye
He lit a little light
'n brought it all in, in under seven days

He said 'i'm makin' em, a man and woman
I'll let run but before my work is through
There's still one thing that i got to do'

Chorus:
Let there be music
Let there be candlelight
Let there be love
Let there be young hearts
Sendin' up hungry sparks
Let there be love

Bridge:
You wonder how it happens
You question if there'll ever come a day
We'll get your head out of your way

Deep in the heart a' me
The music, it plays the beat
Its like a part a' me is turnin', turnin', turnin'
Don'cha try to defeat it
'cause i know ya just can't beat it
Somethin' inside a' me is
burnin',burnin',burnin',burnin',burnin',burnin',burnin'

Repeat chorus to fade:


6.Loraine

Hold me
Long enough to tell me
What you told me
Long ago
Before you got to know me

Only when lovers try
They learn to talk it out
To keep their love alive
That's the only way, i say,
That love survives
Its time we try

Chorus:
Loraine
Won't you show the way
Hearts that bend won't break
When they learn to face the truth now
Show me how

Loraine
I know you feel the same
Hold me now
I don't know what to say
I'm so in love with you
Loraine

Talk to me
Isn't that the way it ought to be?
But whats's the use if we end up a memory
Remembering our honesty
I always thought that's what you want of me
But now the truth has made you turn your back on me
Oh, can't you see

Chorus then bridge:
I've got to find a way
I beg you babe
I need to hear you say
You love me

If i have the chance
I won't let you go
I'll stay by your side
I'll be lovin' you darlin'
And for all of my life
I will let you know
You're my only love
Just believe in me darlin'

Look in my eyes
I swear this is true
I you want it
You got it
I promise you loraine

Repeat chorus to fade

I swear i love you
I always will
This kind of feeling never came to me until loraine


7.Love Will Follow

I run out of breath and start to shake
I love you with all my heart can take
I hold you beside me in my sleep
And long to be dreaming in my sleep

We've come into a place in time
Where i am yours and you're mine
A circle filled with love

If you'll come away with me
I could show you ecstasy
Close your eyes and we will lead
And love will follow

Take a chance and hold my hand
I know you'll understand
We'll find a special land
And love will follow

A smile on your lips and in your eyes
A stranger adrift in paradise
You touch me and slowly move away
Take all of the night you need to take

Just wait a little while and see
What you mean to me
I've waited all my life

If you come away with me
I could show you ecstasy
Close your eyes and we will lead
And love will follow

Use your wings and fly away
And come with me today
Your heart will lead the way
And love will follow

(if this was just a chance of make-believe)
(you'd never feel it this way)
I've always wanted to love somebody
As much as i, i wanted you now


We've come into a place in time
Where i am yours and you're mine
A circle filled with love

If you'll come away with me
I could show you ecstasy
Close your eyes and we will lead
And love will follow

Take a chance and hold my hand
I know you'll understand
We'll find a special land
And love will follow

Girl, i swear i'll never fall
It's a natural pure law
And everywhere we go
Love will follow

Use your wings to fly away
And come with me today
Your heart will lead the way
And love will follow


(hold me long, all night long, where you belong, my baby)
(hold me long, all night long, where you belong, my baby)
(hold me long, all night long, where you belong, my baby)
(hold me long, all night long, where you belong, my baby)
(hold me long, all night long, where you belong, my baby)
(hold me long, all night long, where you belong, my baby)
(hold me long, all night long, where you belong, my baby)
(hold me long, all night long, where you belong, my baby)
(hold me long, all night long, where you belong, my baby)
Fade


8.No Lookin' Back

I'm fading out of sight
My wheels are the only sound
Runnin at the speed of a' light
'n i can't slow down now

Out on an open road
Racin' to beat the night
No matter where i'm goin'
I guess i'll get alright

So why don't i understand
What's trippin' me up?
It oughta be a simple thing

Chorus:
I can't hold on
'n i can't return
Its time to let go
'n start to live and learn

I took a one-way flight
Too high to see the ground
Now i know how long it takes
A heart to come down

Alone on the highway now
Takin' it mile by mile
I'd rather be a lonely man
Than an imprisoned child

So why do i feel the strain
That keeps trippin' me up
Will it ever be a simple thing

Chorus:
I can't hold on
And i can't return
Rivers will run
'n bridges will burn
I can't say just how
But there's no lookin' back now

Bridge:
When everything fades away
And there's nothing left
Then you got to keep rememberin'

Chorus:
I won't slow down
'n i can't return
Its time to let go
'n start to live and learn

So why don't i understand
What's trippin' me up?
Well it oughta be a simple thing

I can't hold on
'n i can't return
Rivers will run
'n bridges will burn
I can't say just how
But there's no lookin' back now
I wo't slow down
'n i can't return
As night turns to dawn
The pages will burn
I can't say just how
But there's no lookin' back now
I can't hold on
'n i can't reurn
Its time to let go
'n start to live and learn


9.Vox Humana

Early mornin' lookin' tired and worn
And lookin' out for the enemy
You made all the way to hudson bay
But you're right back here with me
Tryin' to run away
Your lips are sealed

A runaway
So tell me baby
What you're wantin' me to do
Givin' my love to you
Mama don't you know
Now you're livin' like a runaway
Sunday dawn you met a gypsy woman
On a road to tennessee
She told you a lot about the world to come
But did she tell you
Why you couldn't tell me
Like a runaway
How one by one you run away
Now tell me baby
What you want me to do
Givin' all my love to you
Mama don't you know

(chorus)

It's gonna be a hard leavin'
You're gonna need a strong reason
'cause i ain't gonna start believin'
That you're out of my life
You bet you better do your fast talkin'
Before you do your last walkin'
It's gonna be a hard hard leavin' (talk to me)
Vox humana
I wanta feel the power of speech
Vox humana
Sounds so right so real to me
Vox humana
You gotta say
What you oughtta say
Don't try to run away
Darlin' i'm lettin' you know
