1.Blue

Lyrics:Bill Mack
Music:Bill Mack

Blue
Oh, so lonesome for you
Why can't you be blue over me

Blue
Oh, so lonesome for you
Tears fill my eyes 'til I can't see

3 o'clock in the morning
Here am I
Sitting here so lonely
So lonesome I could cry

Blue
Oh, so lonesome for you
Why can't you be blue over me

Now that it's over
I realize
Those weak words you whispered
Were nothing but lies

Blue
Oh, so lonesome for you
Why can't you be blue over me
Why can't you be blue over me


2.How Do I Live

Lyrics:Diane Warren
Music:Diane Warren

How do I
Get through one night without you
If I had to live without you
What kind of life would that be
Oh, I
I need you in my arms, need you to hold
You're my world, my heart, my soul
If you ever leave
Well baby, you would take away everything good in my life
And tell me now

How do I live without you
I want to know
How do I breathe without you
If you ever go
How do I ever, ever survive
How do I
How do I
Oh, how do I live

Without you
There'd be no sun in my sky
There would be no love in my life
There'd be no world left for me
And I
Well baby, I don't know what I would do
I'd be lost if I lost you
If you ever leave
Baby, you would take away everything real in my life
And tell me now

How do I live without you
I want to know
How do I breathe without you
If you ever go
How do I ever, ever survive
How do I
How do I
Oh, how do I live

Please tell me, baby

How do I go on
If you ever leave
Well baby, you would take away everything
Need you with me
Baby, don't you know that you're everything good in my life
And tell me now

How do I live without you
I want to know
How do I breathe without you
If you ever go
How do I ever, ever survive
How do I,
How do I
Oh, how do I live (How do I live)
How do I live without you (How do I live)
How do I live without you baby (How do I live)

(How do I, how do I live)
How do I live


3.Can't Fight The Moonlight

Lyrics:Diane Warren
Music:Diane Warren

Under a lovers' sky
Gonna be with you
And no one's gonna be around
If you think that you won't fall
We'll just wait until
'Til the sun goes down

Underneath the starlight - starlight
There's a magical feeling - so right
It will steal your heart tonight

You can try to resist
Try to hide from my kiss
But you know
Don't you know that you can't fight the moonlight
Deep in the dark
You'll surrender your heart
Don't you know
Don't you know that you can't fight the moonlight
No, you can't fight it
It's gonna get to your heart

There's no escape from love
Once the gentle breeze (Once a gentle breeze)
Weaves it's spell upon your heart
And no matter what you think
It won't be too long
'Til you're in my arms

Underneath the starlight - starlight
We'll be lost in the rhythm - so right
Feel it steal your heart tonight

You can try to resist
Try to hide from my kiss
But you know
Don't you know that you can't fight the moonlight
Deep in the dark
You'll surrender your heart
Don't you know
Don't you know that you can't fight the moonlight
No, you can't fight it
No matter what you do
The night is gonna get to you

Can't fight, no
Can't hide, no
Don't try
You're never gonna win

Underneath the starlight - starlight
There's a magical feeling - so right
It will steal your heart tonight

You can try (to resist)
(Try to hide from my kiss)
(But you know) Don't you know that you, you know that you
Can't fight the moonlight
Deep in the dark, deep in the dark
You'll surrender your heart
But you know
But you know that you can't fight the moonlight
No (You can't fight it)

(You can try to resist) You can try to resist my kiss
(Try to hide from my kiss)
But you know
Don't you know that you can't, can't fight the moonlight
Deep in the dark
You'll surrender your heart, surrender your heart
But you know
Don't you know that you can't fight the moonlight
No, you can't fight it
It's gonna get to your heart


4.One Way Ticket(Because I Can)

Standing on the border
Looking out into the great unknown
I can feel my heart beating faster as I step out on my own
There's a new horizon and the promise of favourable wind
I'm heading out tonight, travelling light
I'm gonna start all over again

And buy a one-way ticket on a west bound train
See how far I can go (Because I can)
I'm gonna go out dancing in the pouring rain
And talk to someone I don't know (Because I can)
I will face the world around me
Knowing that I'm strong enough to let you go
And I will fall in love again
Because I can

Gonna climb the mountain
And look the eagle in the eye
I won't let fear clip my wings and tell me how high I can fly
How could I have ever believed
That love had to be so blind
When freedom was waiting, down at the station
All I had to do was make up my mind

And buy a one-way ticket on a west bound train
See how far I can go (Because I can)
I'm gonna go out dancing in the pouring rain
And talk to someone I don't know (Because I can)
I will face the world around me
Knowing that I'm strong enough to let you go
And I will fall in love again
Because I can

I have walked through the fire
And crawled on my knees
Through the valley of the shadow of doubt
Then the truth came shining like a light on me
And now I can see my way out

I'm gonna buy a one-way ticket on a west bound train
See how far I can go (Because I can)
I'm gonna go out dancing in the pouring rain
And talk to someone I don't know (Fall in love)

I'm gonna buy a one-way ticket on a west bound train
Gonna have my breakfast with some pink champagne
I'm gonna sail the ocean
I'm gonna spread my wings
I'm gonna climb that mountain
Gonna do everything


5.Commitment

What I'm looking for
Is a love that's forever
Someone who can capture my soul in a heartbeat
And stay for all time
What I'm praying for
Is a match made in heaven
Someone who will worship my body
And still put his heart on the line

Commitment
Someone who'll go the distance
I need somebody who'll stand power
Who will make me go weak in the knees
Commitment
And everything that goes with it
I need honour and love in my life from somebody
Who's playing for keeps

What I'm searching for
Is a man who'll stand by me
Who will walk through the fire
And be my flame in the night
Oh, I won't settle for
Less than what I deserve
A friend and a lover who will love me
For the rest of my life

Commitment
Someone who'll go the distance
I need somebody who'll stand power
Who will make me go weak in the knees
Commitment
And everything that goes with it
I need honour and love in my life from somebody
Who's playin' for keeps

I've had promises broken
Three words left unspoken
They just left me aching for more
But I've found temptation
I won't be impatient
There's one thing that's worth waiting for

Commitment
Someone who'll go the distance
I need somebody who'll stand power
Who will make me go weak in the knees
Commitment
And everything that goes with it
I need honour and love in my life from somebody
Who's playing for keeps

Commitment
Someone who'll go the distance
I need somebody who'll stand power
Who will make me go weak in the knees
Commitment
And everything that goes with it
I need honour and love in my life from somebody
Who's playing for keeps
Oh, yeah
Commitment


6.I Need You

Written:Ty Lacy/Dennis Matkosky
Arranger:Gary Leech/Austin Deptula

I don't need a lot of things
I can get by with nothing
Of all the blessings life can bring
I've always needed something

But I've got all I want
When it comes to loving you
You're my only reason
You're my only truth

I need you like water, like breath, like rain
I need you like mercy from Heaven's gate
There's a freedom in your arms
That carries me through
I need you

You're the hope that moves me to courage again
You're the love that rescues me
When the cold winds rage
And it's so amazing
'Cause that's just how you are
And I can't turn back now
'Cause you've brought me too far

I need you like water, like breath, like rain
I need you like mercy from Heaven's gate
There's a freedom in your arms
That carries me through
I need you

Oh yes, I do

I need you like water, like breath, like rain
I need you like mercy from Heaven's gate
There's a freedom in your arms and it carries me through
I need you (Da, da, da, da)
Oh yes, I do (Da, da, da, da)
I need you (Da, da, da, da)
Oh (I need you, da, da, da, da)
Oh (Da, da, da, da)
I need you, oh (Da, da, da, da)
(Da, da, da, da)
(I need you)
(Da, da, da, da)


7.Written In The Stars

Artist:Leann Rimes/Elton John

LeAnn - Elton - Both - Choir

I am here to tell you we can never meet again
Simple really, isn't it, a word or two and then
A lifetime of not knowing where or how or why or when
You think of me, or speak of me, or wonder what befell
The someone you once loved so long ago, so well

Never wonder what I'll feel as living shuffles by
You don't have to ask me and I need not reply
Every moment of my life from now until I die
I will think or dream of you and fail to understand
How a perfect love can be confounded out of our hands

Is it written in the stars
Are we paying for some crime
Is that all that we are good for
Just a stretch of mortal time
Is this God's experiment
In which we have no say
In which we're given paradise
But only for a day

Nothing can be altered
Oh, there is nothing to decide
No escape, no change of heart, no any place to hide

You are all I'll ever want but this I am denyin'
Sometimes in my darkest thoughts I wish I never learned
What it is to be in love and have that love returned

Is it written in the stars
Are we paying for some crime
Is that all that we are good for
Just a stretch of mortal time
Is this God's experiment (God's experiment)
In which we have no say (In which we have now say)
In which we're given paradise (If only for a day)
But only for a day

Is it written in the stars
Are we paying for some crime
Is that all that we are good for
Just a stretch of mortal time

Is this God's experiment (God's experiment)
In which we have no say (In which we have now say)
In which we're given paradise (Given paradise)
But only for a day (For a day)


8.Unchained Melody

Oh, my love
My darling
I've hungered for your touch
A long lonely time
As time goes by
So slowly
That time can do so much
Are you still mine

I need your love
I need your love
God, speed your love
To me

Lonely rivers flow
To the sea
To the sea
To the open arms
Of the sea, yeah
Lonely rivers sigh
'Wait for me, wait for me
I'll be coming home
Wait for me'

Oh, my love
My darling
I've hungered, hungered for your touch
A long lonely time
And I know that time goes by
So slowly
That time can do so much
Are you still mine

I need your love
I need your love
God, speed your love
To me
Oh
Oh


9.The Light In Your Eyes

Life can take your dreams and turn them upside down
Friends will talk about you when you're not around
Reality can really cut you down to size
But don't ever lose that light in your eyes
Don't ever lose that light in your eyes

People make you promises they'll never keep
Soon you'll know why people say talk is cheap
And life resembles on big compromise
But don't ever lose that light in your eyes
Don't ever lose that light in your eyes

Keep on shining
Keep on smiling
Don't lose faith and don't lose heart
When you're crying
Just keep trying to remind yourself
You're a shining star
Yes, you are

Somewhere down the line you'll face the judgement day
When the angels look at you what will you say
They've got a way of knowing who qualifies
Just let them see that light in your eyes
Don't ever lose that light in your eyes

Keep on shining
Keep on smiling
Don't lose faith and don't lose heart
When you're crying
Just keep trying to remind yourself
You're a shining star
Yes, you are

Don't ever lose that light in your eyes (Don't ever lose)
Don't ever lose that light in your eyes (That light in your
eyes)
Don't ever lose
(Don't ever lose that light in your eyes)


10.On The Side of Angels

I've never been so certain
I've never been so sure
We're on the side of angels
If we believe this love is pure

Is it so hard to trust it
'Cause we've been wrong before
There comes a time in every life
We find the heart we're waiting for

After all the might-have-beens
The close and distant calls
After all the try-agains
Don't be afraid to fall
We're on the side of angels after all

Every time you touch me
Don't you feel it too
The gentle hand that's guiding us
You to me
Me to you

After all the might-have-beens
The close and distant calls
After all the try-agains
Don't be afraid to fall
We're on the side of angels after all

Heaven only knows
Why this took so long
But only Heaven knows
A love is right or wrong

After all the might-have-beens
The close and distant calls
After all the try-agains
Don't be afraid to fall
We're on the side of angels
On the side of angels
On the side of angels after all

Oh

On the side of angels

Oh


11.You Light Up My Life

So many nights
I'd sit by my window
Waiting for someone
To sing me his song
So many dreams
I kept deep inside me
Alone in the dark
But now you've come along

And you light up my life
You give me hope
To carry on
You light up my days
And fill my nights with song

Rolling at sea
Adrift on the waters
Could it be finally
I'm turning for home
Finally a chance
To say 'Hey, I Love You'
Never again to be all alone

And you light up my life
You give me hope
To carry on
You light up my days
And fill my nights with song

'Cause you, you light up my life
You give me hope
To carry on
You light up my days
And fill my my nights with song
It can't be wrong
When it feels so right

'Cause you
You light up my life


12.Nothin' New Under the Moon

Nowhere to go
All night to get there
Another nice try with Mr. Wrong
Late night TV on my horizon
National Anthem and I'm barely hanging on

Just a typical Saturday night
Feeling like the rest of my life

There was nothing new under the moon
Same old dance
Same old tune
Just wishes on stars that never came true
Just one more night to get through
There was nothing new under the moon
'Til you

Hey, what a change
Hey, what a concept
Here's a true heart wanting mine
News flash
Who'd ever thought you could have the same feeling at the very
same time

Look at what your love's doing to me
I can't believe I used to believe

That there was nothing new under the moon
Same old dance
Same old tune
Just wishes on stars that never came true
Just one more night to get through
There was nothing new under the moon
'Til you

(Nothing new) Nothing new under the moon
Same old dance
Same old tune
Just wishes on stars that never came true
Just one more night to get through
There was nothing new under the moon
'Til you
Nothing new under the moon
'Til you

(Nothing new under the moon) There was nothing new under the
moon 'til you
(Nothing new under the moon)
(There was nothing new under the moon) Nothing new
('Til you) 'Til you
(Nothing new under the moon) Oh yeah
(There was nothing new under the moon 'til you)
There was nothing new under the moon 'til you
(Nothing new)
Oh oh


13.Big Deal

Well, he used to be mine
Not so very long ago
I was crazy
To ever let him get away, yeah
But girl, you should know better
Then to go bragging in my face
So forgive me
For what I'm 'bout to say

Big deal
So what
Who cares
You just got lucky
That's all it was
Shut up
Don't wanna hear another word about candle lights and long stem
roses

He's perfect
I heard ya
The first ten times that you told me, yeah
It's amazing

You call yourself a friend
But you just keep rubbing it in

Big Deal
So what
Who cares
You just got lucky
That's all it was
I swear
If I hear another word about candle lights and long stem roses
And how you're falling head over heels
In love

So happy for you

14.Life Goes On

Life goes on, life goes on
Life goes on, life

You sucked me in and played my mind
Just like a toy
You were crank and wind
Baby, I would give 'til you wore it out
You left me lying in a pool of doubt
And you're still thinking you're the Daddy Mac
You should've known better but you didn't and I can't go back

Oh, life goes on
And it's only gonna make me strong
It's a fact, once you get on board
Say goodbye cause you can't go back
Oh, it's a fight, and I really wanna get it right
Where I'm at, is my life before me
And this feeling that I can go back
Life goes on
Life goes on (And this feeling that I can't go back)
Life goes on

Wish I knew then what I know now
You held all the cards and sold me out
Baby, shame on you if you fool me once
Shame on me if you fool me twice
But you've been a pretty hard case to crack
Should have known better but I didn't and I can't go back

Oh, life goes on
And it's only gonna make me strong
It's a fact, once you get on board
Say goodbye cause you can't go back
Oh, it's a fight, and I really wanna get it right
Where I'm at, is my life before me
And this feeling that I can go back

Na, na, na, na, na
Life goes on
Na, na, na, na, na
Made me strong
Oh yeah, got a feeling that I can't go back
Life goes on (and it's only gonna make me strong)
Oh yeah, life goes on and on and on

Shame on you if you fool me once
Shame on me if you fool me twice
But you've been a pretty hard case to crack
Should have known better but I didn't
And I can't go back

Oh, life goes on
And it's only gonna make me strong
It's a fact, once you get on board
Say goodbye cause you can't go back
Oh, it's a fight, and I really wanna get it right

Oh yeah
I've gotta go now
Moving on
No turning back
'Cause you made me strong
Oh yeah
Got a feeling that I can't go back
No, I can't go back
Oh yeah


15.We Can

They will try to stop the dream we're dreaming
But they can't stop us from believing
They will fill your head with doubt
But that won't stop us now
So let them say we can't do it
Put up a road block
We'll just run right through it
'Cause

We can do the impossible
We have the power in our hands
And we won't stop
'Cause we've got
To make a difference in this life
With one voice, one heart, two hands
We can

They will say the odds are stacked against us
But that can't hold us back
We will be relentless
There's a voice they're gonna hear
A voice so loud and clear
So let them say we can't do it, give us a mountain,
And we're gonna move it
'Cause

We can do the impossible
We have the power in our hands
And we won't stop
'Cause we've got
To make a difference in this life
With one voice, one heart, two hands

today)
Because we've got the faith it takes
To win this race
So let them say we can't do it

We can do the impossible
We have the power in our hands
And we won't stop
'Cause we've got

Do the impossible, do the impossible
I have the power in my hands
And I won't stop
Cause I've got
To make a difference in this life
With my one voice, one heart, two hands
We can


16.Last Thing On My Mind

Written:Leann Rimes/Ronan Keating

LeAnn - Ronan - Both

Four o'clock in the morning
My mind' s filled with a thousand thoughts of you
And how you left without warning
But looking back I'm sure you tried to talk it through

Now I see it so clearly
We're together but living separate lives

So I wanna tell you I'm sorry
Baby, I can't find the words
But if I could
Then you know I would, yeah yeah

No, I won't let go, know what we can be
I won't watch my life crashing down on me
Guess I had it all right there before my eyes, yeah
Girl, I'm sorry now, you were the last thing on my mind

You carried me like a river
How far we've come still surprises me

And now I look in the mirror (Look in the mirror)
Staring back is a man I used to be with you
How I long for you, yeah

No I won't let go, know what we can be
I won't watch my life crashing down on me
Guess I had it all right there before my eyes, yeah
Girl, I'm sorry now, you were the last thing on my mind

Girl, I'm sorry, I was wrong
Could have been there
Should have been so strong
So I'm sorry
Uh

Oh

Oh

No I won't let go, know what we can be
I won't watch my life crashing down on me
Guess I had it all right there before my eyes, yeah
Girl I'm sorry now (Uh, I'm sorry), you were the last thing on
my mind

I won't watch my life crashing down on me
Guess I had it all right there before my eyes, yeah
Girl I'm sorry now, you were the last thing on my mind
On my mind
On my mind


17.This Love

Oh

In the free life there were detours on dirt gravel roads
Sometimes it feels like there's just no right way to go
There'll be times you'll go crazy
And times you'll break down
Always something that stands in your way

Just keep your eyes on me
Never loose sight of me
This love
Nothing can come between
Us when we're following
This love
This love

Everybody is bound to feel lost now and then
But I'll be the one thing that'll be there for you till the end
Through good days and bad
The ups and the downs
Don't you ever let go of your dreams
Oh

Just keep your eyes on me
Never loose sight of me
This love
Nothing can come between
Us when we're following
This love

I'll be your northern star
When everything's dark
I will shine for you
Shine for you

Just keep your eyes on me
Never loose sight of me
This love
Nothing can come between
Us when we're following
This love

Just keep your eyes on me
Never lose sight of me
This love
Nothing can come between
Us when we're following
This love
Oh, oh, no
This love


18.Crazy

Crazy
I'm crazy for feeling so lonely
I'm crazy
Crazy for feeling so blue
I knew you'd love me as long as you wanted
And then someday
You'd leave me for somebody new

Worry
Why do I let myself worry
Wondering
What in the world did I do
Oh

I'm crazy
For thinking that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for trying
And crazy for crying
And I'm crazy for loving you

Crazy
For thinking that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for trying
And crazy for crying
And I'm crazy for loving
You
