1.There's Gotta Be More to Life

Yeah yeah...oh...oh....

I've got it all, but I feel so deprived.
I go up, I come down, and I'm emptier inside.
Tell me what is this thing that I feel like I'm missing
and why can't I let it go?

There's gotta be more to life
than chasing down every temporary high
to satisfy me.
Cuz the more that I'm
trippin' out thinking there must be more to life.
Well it's life, but I'm sure.
There's gotta be more...
than wanting more.

I've got the time and I'm wasting it slowly
Here in this moment, I'm halfway out the door.
On to the next thing, I'm searching
for something that's missing.

There's gotta be more to life
than chasing down every temporary high
to satisfy me.
Cuz the more that I'm
trippin' out thinking there must be more to life.
Well it's life, but I'm sure.

There's gotta be more...
I'm wanting more.
I'm always waiting on something other than this.
Why am I feelin' like there's something I missed?

There's gotta be more to life
than chasing down every temporary high
to satisfy me.
Cuz the more that I'm
trippin' out thinking there must be more to life.
Well it's life, but I'm sure.

There's gotta be more to life
than chasing down every temporary high
to satisfy me.
Cuz the more that I'm
trippin' out thinking there must be more to life.
Well it's life, but I'm sure...

(There's gotta be more) More...ooh yeah..
(More) More to
(To) More to
(Life) More to life...(yeah)
(There' s got be more to life) More to
More to life...
(More) More to
(To) More to
(Life...yeah) There's gotta be more...
(There's gotta be more to life)Oooh...
More to life...


2.Stuck

I can't get out of bed today
Or get you off my mind
I just can't seem to find a way
To leave the love behind

I ain't trippin
I'm just missing you
You know what I'm saying
You know what I mean

You kept me hanging on a string
While you make me cry
I tried to give you everything
But you just gave lies

I ain't trippin
I'm just missing you
You know what I'm saying
You know what I mean

Every now and then
When I'm all alone
I've been wishing you would call me on the telephone
Say you want me back
But you never do
I feel like such a fool
There's nothing I can do..
I'm such a fool for you---

I can't take it
What am I waiting for?
My heart's still breaking
I miss you even more
And I can't fake it
The way I could before
I hate you but I love you
I can't stop thinking of you
It's true , I'm stuck on you---

Now love's a broken record that's
Been skipping in my head
I keep singing yesterday
Why we've got to play these games we play?

I ain't trippin
I'm just missing you
You know what I'm saying
You know what I mean

Every now and then
When I'm all alone
I've been wishing you would call me on the telephone
Say you want me back
But you never do
I feel like such a fool

I can't take it
What am I waiting for?
My heart's still breaking
I miss you even more
And I can't fake it
The way I could before
I hate you but I love you
I can't stop thinking of you
It's true , I'm stuck on you---
You ----

Every now and then
When I'm all alone
I'll be wishing you will call me on the telephone
Say you want me back
But you never do
I feel like such a fool
There's nothing I can do..
I'm such a fool for you---

I can't take it
What am I waiting for?
My heart's still breaking
I miss you even more
And I can't fake it
The way I could before
I hate you but I love you
I can't stop thinking of you
I hate you but I love you
I can't stop thinking of you
Tell me what to do
I'm stuck on you---


3.Don't Look At Me


4.Genuine


5.Strong Enough

As I rest against this cold hard wall
Oh will you pass me by
Will you critize me as I sit and cry
I had fought so hard
and thought that all be battles had been won
only to find the war has just begun

Is He not strong enough
Is He not pure enough
To break me, pour me out and start again
Is He not brave enough
To take one chance on me
Please can I have one chance to start again

Will my weaknes for an hour
Make me suffer for a lifetime
Is there any way to be made whole again
If I'm healed, Renewed and find forgiveness
Find the strength I've never had
Will my scars forever ruin all God's plan

He took my life into His Hands
And turned it all around
In my most desperate circumstance
It's there I finally found

But you were strong enough
But you were pure enough
To break me, pour me out and start again
But you were brave enough
To take one chance on me
Oh Thank you for me chance to start againI wonder


6.I'm Not Missing You

Oh, Oh
I'm not missing you
Been through just about everything that I could go through
When it comes to relationships
Don't know what I was missing or why I ain't listen
When I told myself that was it
Now here I go, hurt again
Cause of my curiosity
Now that it's over
What else could it be, he just had to cheat

I made a promise never to settle
Why didn't I keep it?
Cause I hated the heartbreak
Crying and cheating, the fooling around


(But) I'm not missing you
I'm not going through the motions
Waiting and hoping you call me
I'm not missing you
You might have had me open
But I must be going because
I got life to do
I know I'm usually hanging on
I used to hate to see you gone
But this time it's different
I don't even feel the distance
I'm not missing
I'm not missing you

It's a shame in a way cause
I feel that I may not ever find the right one for me
Did I leave him, is he right in front of my face oh
Will my true love ever be?
Why would I go on a search again
When I know what the end will be
What good is love when it keeps on hurting me?

I made a promise never to settle
Why didn't I keep it?
Cause I hated the heartbreak
Crying and cheating, the fooling around

(But) I'm not missing you
I'm not going through the motions
Waiting and hoping you call me
I'm not missing you
You might have had me open
But I must be going because
I got life to do
I know I'm usually hanging on
I used to hate to see you gone
But this time it's different
I don't even feel the distance
I'm not missing
I'm not missing you

I'm not going through the motions
Waiting and hoping you call me
I'm not missing you
You might have had me open
But I must be going because
I got life to do
I know I'm usually hanging on
I used to hate to see you gone
But this time it's different
I don't even feel the distance
I'm not missing
I'm not missing you

No I can't be with you
Cause I'm scared felt like I was falling when you left me
I can't keep going through life
Unaware of what I missed
And the person I could be
Love's good when it's right
And when it's left in your memory
All the times I let you down
I guess love will be nice for someone else's life

(But) I'm not missing you
I'm not going through the motions
Waiting and hoping you call me
I'm not missing you
You might have had me open
But I must be going because
I got life to do
I know I'm usually hanging on
I used to hate to see you gone (I used to hate it)
Oh different, oh feel the distance
I'm not missing
I'm not missing you

I'm not going through the motions
Waiting and hoping you call me (knockin' at my door)
You might have had me open
But I must be going because (it's the best day of my life)
I know I'm usually hanging on
I used to hate to see you gone
I'm not missing
I'm not missing you I'm not missing you (oh baby)
I'm not missing you
I'm not missing you
I'm so over you
It ain't even a problem


7.Bounce Back


8.Without Love

Ooh...yeah...ooh... yeah... la da da da da...Ooh.

If I speak in the tongues of angels, but have not love
I'm only a resounding noise
If I have the gift of knowledge
And if my faith moves mountains high
But have not love I am nothing

Though I know the One
Who holds the stars in the heavens
In the palm of His hand
If I give all I possess
To the poor and the helpless
I'll still gain nothing
Without love

(Without Love)

Love's patient
True love is always kind
Love does not envy
Never brags, it's never proud
Slow to wrath, it keeps no records of wrongs against friends
Love forgives
We all could use forgiveness

Though I know the One who holds (I know the One)
The stars in the heavens
In the palm of His hands
If I give all I possess (All I possess)
To the poor and the helpless
I'll still gain nothing (without love)

oh... OOh... without love... oh

Love never fails
Love is true
Love's the one thing that can always change you
Love is patient
Love is kind
Love's the one reason the world survives
Love never fails
Love is true
Love's the one thing that can always change you
Love is patient
Love is kind
Love's the one reason the world survives

Though I know the One who holds (I know the One)
The stars in the heavens
In the palm of His hands (Oh..)
If I give all I posses (All I possess)
To the poor and the helpless
I'll still gain nothing
Without Love

Without Love
ooh...hey...yeah...


9.I Promise

Will I always be there for you
When you need someone, Will I be that one you need
Will I do all my best to, to protect you
When the tears get near your eyes
Will I be the one that's by your side

Will I be there when you call me in the middle of the night
Will I keep the rain from falling down into your light
I promise, I promise
I promise I will

Will I take tender care of you
Take your darkest night and make it bright for you
Will I be there to make you strong and to lean on
When this world has turned so cold
Will I be the one that's there to hold

Will I be there when you call me in the middle of the night
Will I keep the rain from falling down into your light
I promise, I promise
I promise I will

Will I be there when you call me in the middle of the night
Will I keep the rain from falling down into your light
I promise, I promise
I promise I will

Yeah
And I love you more every day
And nothing will take that love away
When you need someone
I promise I'll be there for you (there for you)
I promise

Will I be there when you call me in the middle of the night
Will I keep the rain from falling down into your light
I promise, I promise
I promise I will

And I promise (and I promise)
I promise (oh I promise you)
I will be there when you call me (when you call me)
I promise (I promise)
I promise I will


10.Maybe I Won't Look Back

I woke up from dreaming
I returned a call from a friend of mine, she sounded really
lonely
But I had somewhere to be
I said I'll call you later
'Cause I really need to go, I can't be late, she'll be okay,
this is important
Then I forgot completely


You can be who you choose to be
But whether you do, or whether you don't
Depends on your priority
And I know that it's not easy


I'm looking for the peace to find some sleep tonight
'Cause I'm
Not very proud of the way I have lived today
But if I choose to
Follow Him along the way
Then maybe I won't look back
Feel like time is gonna pass me by
Then maybe I won't look back


On those days I could of said something
In those times when help was needed I was busy
I was within the words to see the moment is good
In some way I could have been something
I thought I was done with a simple smile, but I was selfish
But if I change my heart today, tomorrow it may be okay
And maybe I won't look back

I woke up from a nightmare
Where I was talking down this street, invisible and no one else
could see me
All my chances were gone
I can't get your attention
I've had many things to say, but never tried, afraid you
wouldn't listen
Should of done it all differently


You can be who you choose to be
But whether you do, or whether you don't
Depends on your priority
Lord help me to choose wisely


I'm looking for the peace to find some sleep tonight
'Cause I'm
Not very proud of the way I have lived today
But if I choose to
Follow Him along the way
Then maybe I won't look back
Feel like time is gonna pass me by
Then maybe I won't look back


On those days I could of said something
In those times when help was needed I was busy
I was within the words to see the moment is good
In some way I could have been something
I thought I was done with a simple smile, but I was selfish
But if I change my heart today, tomorrow it may be okay
And maybe I won't look back


I can't hold back, I can't be shy
This is my big chance to be living the life, I gotta
Stand up strong and take the ride
Throw all those useless excuses aside
So much to do, I got a lot to say
I don't always understand but I'll gonna follow anyway
'Cause there is a bigger plan, a destiny


I'm looking for the peace to find some sleep tonight
'Cause I'm
Not very proud of the way I have lived today
But if I choose to
Follow Him along the way
Then maybe I won't look back
Feel like time is gonna pass me by
Then maybe I won't look back


On those days I could of said something
In those times when help was needed I was busy
I was within the words to see the moment is good
In some way I could have been something
I thought I was done with a simple smile, but I was selfish
But if I change my heart today, tomorrow it may be okay
And maybe I won't look back

Then maybe I won't look back


11.Dear Friend

Dear Friend
What's on your mind
You don't laugh the way you used to
But I've noticed how you cry
Dear friend I feel so helpless
I see you sit in silence
As you face new pain each day
I feel there's nothing I can do
I know you don't feel pretty
Even though you are
But it wasn't your beauty
That found truth in my heart

Dear friend you are so precious
Dear friend

Dear friend
I'm here for you
I know that you don't talk too much
But we can share this day anew
Dear friend
Please don't feel like you're alone
There is someone who is praying
Praying for your piece of mind
Hoping joy is what you find

I know you don't feel weak
Even though you are
But it wasn't your strength
That found room in my heart

Dear friend
You are so precious
Dear friend


12.Beautiful Awakening


13.So Simple

Don't need high heels
For a good feel
You can keep the fancy clothes
I'll take walkin in the rain
Over things material
I'll trade Melrose and the big names
Give me faces that I know
Just play a melody that everybody knows

Take it down, down, down
And strip it to the core
I don't really need much less is more, more, more


True to life, true to me
The way it's got to be
So simple, so simple, so simple
True to love, love to be
Absolutely free
(so simple, so simple, simple)

Give me wisdom, plain and truthful
Teach me somethin I don't know
Plain as education, inspiration I suppose (yeah yeah)
Give me family, on a Sunday
And I'll be just fine
There's nothing in the world
That's worth more of my time

Take it down, down, down
And strip it to the core
I don't really need much less is more, more, more

True to life, true to me
The way it's got to be
So simple, so simple, so simple
True to love, love to be
Absolutely free
(so simple, so simple, simple)

True to life, true to me
The way it's got to be
So simple, so simple, so simple
True to love, love to be
Absolutely free
(so simple, so simple, simple)

Livin my dream, is my song to the world
(let 'em hear it)
Sharin' my soul and spirit
I'm hopin that you hear it
Got one (one) life (life) to live (live)
It's only what you make it (make it)
Every new day's a chance worth takin

True to life, true to me
The way it's got to be
So simple, so simple, so simple
True to love, love to be
Absolutely free
(so simple, so simple, simple)

True to life, true to me
The way it's got to be
So simple, so simple, so simple
True to love, love to be
Absolutely free
(so simple, so simple, simple)


14.I Could Be the One

I could be the one
I could be the one

I wonder what I've got to be for You to wanna use me
I do not always have just the right words to say

But You tell me simple things
That I'd love the chance to bring
To a world of people who just simply need You

Doesn't matter where I'm from
Or where I've been, how far I've come
Doesn't matter where I live
Or what I have, you are my life
Doesn't matter who I know
Or what I've done, you Take it all
You want me as I am

I could be the one
Someone You're looking for
I don't have much to give
Lord, I'm ready
And through You
I could be the one
Whatever You want me to do
I will hold on to
What You say can be done
I could be the one

It is amazing to see
That You chose people like me
Who get off track, fall, crashin' down to the ground
But that's when You pick me up
And show Your strength is enough
You can use a broken heart to heal a broken life

Doesn't matter where I'm from
Where I've been, how far I've come
Doesn't matter where I live
Or what I have, you are my life
Doesn't matter who I know
Or what I've done, you Take it all
You want me as I am

I could be the one
Someone You're looking for
I don't have much to give
Lord, I'm ready
And through You
I could be the one
Whatever you want me to do
I will hold on to
What you say can be done
I could

I could be the one
Someone You're looking for
I don't have much to give
Lord, I'm ready
And through You
I could be the one
Whatever you want me to do
I will hold on to
What you say can be done
I could be the one

Bright, Bright
Shooby-Doop, Shooby-Doop
Bright, Bright
Shooby-Doop, Shooby-Doop-Doop, Bright

You take the crazy things
You take the weakest things
You use the foolish things
To show Your glory
Lord take my broken heart
Take all of my mistakes
You take all of me I want to
Show how great You are

I could be the one
Someone You're looking for
I don't have much to give
Lord, I'm ready
And through You
I could be the one
Whatever you want me to do
I will hold on to
What you say can be done
I could

I could be the one
Someone You're looking for
I don't have much to give
Lord, I'm ready
And through You
I could be the one
Whatever you want me to do
I will hold on to
What you say can be done
I could be the one
