The World We Knew (Over And Over)

(originally by Frank Sinatra)

Over and over I keep going over the world we knew
Once when you walked beside me
That inconceivable, that unbelievable world we knew
When we two were in love

And every bright neon sign turned into stars
And the sun and the moon seemed to be ours
Each road that we took turned into gold
But the dream was too much for you to hold

Now over and over I keep going over the world we knew
Days when you used to love me

And every bright neon sign turned into stars
And the sun and the moon seemed to be ours
Each road that we took, it turned into gold
But the dream was too much for you to hold

Now over and over I keep going over the world we knew
Days when you used to love me

Over and over I keep going over the world we knew

Angels

Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing o'er the plains
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains.

Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo

Come to Bethlehem and see
Christ whose birth the angels sing
Come adore on bended knee

Christ the Lord, the newborn King

Gloria (let us sing)
In excelsis Deo (in excelsis Deo)
Gloria in excelsis Deo

Gloria (Angels, we have heard on high, sweetly singing)
In excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo-oria in excelsis Deo
In Excelsis Deo

Celebrate Me Home

Home for the holidays
I believe I've missed each and every face
Come on and play my music
Let's turn on the love light in this place

It's time I found myself
Totally surrounded in your circles
Whoa, my friends

Please, celebrate me home
Give me a number
Please, celebrate me home
Play me one more song
That I'll always remember
And I can recall
Whenever I find myself too all alone
I can sing me home

Uneasy highway
Traveling where the Westerly winds can fly
Somebody tried to tell me
But the men forgot to tell me why

I gotta count on being gone
Come on now, come on and
Be what you want from me
I'm this strong, I'll be weak

Please celebrate me home
Give me a number
Please celebrate me home
Play me one more song
That I'll always remember
I can recall whenever I
Find myself too all alone
I can make believe I've never gone
And I never know where I belong

Sing me home
(Please celebrate me home)
(Always remember)
Please celebrate me home
Play me one more song

Celebrate, celebrate, celebrate me home
Celebrate, celebrate, celebrate me home
Celebrate, celebrate, celebrate me home
Celebrate, celebrate, celebrate me home
I'm finally here, but I'm bound to roam
Celebrate me home
I'm finally here, but I'm bound to roam
Celebrate me home (please)
I'm finally here, but I'm bound to roam
Celebrate me home (give me a number, please)
I'm finally here, but I'm bound to roam
Celebrate me home
I'm finally here, but I'm bound to roam
Celebrate me home (give me a number)
I'm finally here, but I'm bound to roam
Celebrate me home

(Please, celebrate me home)
Give me a number and please
Celebrate home, whoa

Celebrate, celebrate me home

Shape of my Heart

(feat. Leslie Odom, Jr)
(originally by Sting)

He deals the cards as a meditation
And those he plays never suspect
He doesn't play for the money he wins
He doesn't play for respect

He deals the cards to find the answer
The sacred geometry of chance
The hidden law of a probable outcome
The numbers lead a dance

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart

He may play the Jack of diamonds
He may lay the Queen of spades
He may conceal a King in his hand
While the memory of it fades

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
That's not the shape, the shape of my heart

If I told you that I loved you
You'd maybe think there's something wrong
I'm not a man of too many faces
The mask I wear is one

But those who speak know nothing
And find out to their cost
Like those who curse their luck in too many places
And those who fear are lost

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
That's not the shape of my heart
That's not the shape, the shape of my heart

Your Face

I can see fire burning way out there
I can feel the cold wind across the bitter air
And it makes me wonder how we'll return
Where will we go, what will we do with all we've learned?

Well, I believe in all of us
I won't let this go to waste
I want someone I can touch
I want something I can taste
Holding on to what we must
The light ahead so hard to chase
But there is hope in all of us
And I can see it on your face
On your face (I can see, I can see)

And we're so connected but never more alone
We tell the world that we're special from the filter of a phone
I gotta be open cause life's meant to be shared
But how can I be my truest me when I'm so scared?
Oh...

I believe in all of us
I won't let this go to waste
I want someone I can touch
I want something I can taste
Holding on to what we must
Reach for feelings long erased
But there is love in all of us
And I can see it on your face
On your face (I can see, I can see)

And when we surrender what we had before
(Just be strong, it won't be long)
Just keep moving forward through that open door
Door...

I believe in all of us
I won't let this go to waste
I want someone I can touch
I want something I can taste
Holding on to what we must
The light ahead so hard to chase
But there is hope in all of us
And I can see it on your face
Your face...

And I've never been one to pray
Losing trust and losing faith
But there is God in all of us
And I can see Her on your face
(I can see, I can see)
On your face
(I can see, I can see)
Ooh...
(I can see, I can see)

I can see
I can see...

Both Sides Now

Rows and flows of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons everywhere
I've looked at clouds that way

But now they only block the sun
They rain and snow on everyone
So many things I would have done
But clouds got in my way

I've looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
It's cloud illusions I recall
I really don't know clouds at all

Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels
The dizzy dancing way you feel
As every fairy tale comes real
I've looked at love that way

But now it's just another show
You leave 'em laughing when you go
And if you care, don't let them know
Don't give yourself away

I've looked at love from both sides now
From give and take, and still somehow
It's love's illusions I recall
I really don't know love at all

Tears and fears and feeling proud
To say "I love you" right out loud
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds
I've looked at life that way

But now old friends are acting strange
They shake their heads, they say I've changed
Well something's lost, but something's gained
In living every day

I've looked at life from both sides now
From win and lose and still somehow
It's life's illusions I recall
I really don't know life

I've looked at life from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
It's life's illusions I recall
I really don't know life at all

She

She can kill with a smile
She can wound with her eyes
She can ruin your faith with her casual lies
And she only reveals what she wants you to see
She hides like a child
But she's always a woman to me

She can lead you to love
She can take you or leave you
She can ask for the truth
But she'll never believe you
And she'll take what you give her as long as it's free
She steals like a thief
But she's always a woman to me

Oh, she takes care of herself
She can wait if she wants
She's ahead of her time
Oh, and she never gives out
And she never gives in
She just changes her mind

She will promise you more
Than the Garden of Eden
Then she'll carelessly cut you
And laugh while you're bleedin'
But she'll bring out the best
And the worst you can be
Blame it all on yourself
'Cause she's always a woman to me

Oh, she takes care of herself
She can wait if she wants
She's ahead of her time
Oh, and she never gives out
And she never gives in
She just changes her mind

She's frequently kind
And she's suddenly cruel
She can do as she pleases
She's nobody's fool
But she can't be convicted
She's earned her degree
And the most she will do
Is throw shadows at you
But she's always a woman to me

The Impossible Dream

(originally by Richard Kiley)

To dream the impossible dream
To fight the unbeatable foe
To bear with unbearable sorrow
And to run where the brave dare not go
To right the unrightable wrong
And to love pure and chaste from afar
To try when your arms are too weary
To reach the unreachable star

This is my quest
To follow that star
No matter how hopeless
No matter how far

To fight for the right
Without question or pause
To be willing to march, march into Hell
For that heavenly cause

And I know if I'll only be true
To this glorious quest
That my heart will lie peaceful and calm
When I'm laid to my rest

And the world will be better for this
That one man, scorned and covered with scars
Still strove with his last ounce of courage
To reach the unreachable the unreachable the unreachable star

And I always dream the impossible dream
Yes, I'll reach the unreachable star

The First Time I Ever Saw Your Face

(originally by Roberta Flack)

The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave
To the dark and the endless skies

The first time ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth move in my hand
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command, my love

And the first time ever I lay with you
I felt your heart so close to mine
And I knew our joy would fill the earth
And last 'til the end of time, my love

The first time ever I saw your face
Your face
Your face
Your face

It's Now or Never

I watch the morning dawn upon your skin
A splinter in the light
It caught and frayed the very heart of us
It's been hiding there inside for all this time
How a sure thing winds up just like this
Clockwork silence only knows

And it's no one's fault
There's no black and white
Only you and me
On this endless night
And as the hours run away
With another life
Oh, darling can't you see it's now or never
It's now or never

Sweeping eggshells still at 3 am
We're trying far too hard
The tattered thought balloons above our heads
Sinking in the weight of all we need to say
Why's and what if's have since long played out
Left us short on happy endings

And it's no one's fault
There's no black and white
Only you and me
On this endless night
And as the hours run away
With another life
Oh, darling can't you see it's now or never
It's now or never

It's now or never
It's now or never

You know that there's so much more
And it's no one's fault
There's no black and white
Only you and me
On our final night
And as the hours run away
With another life
Oh, darling can't you see it's now or never
It's now or never

I Can't Make You Love Me

Turn down the lights
And turn down the bed
Turn down these voices
Inside my head

Lay down with me
Tell me no lies
Just hold me close
Don't patronize

Don't patronize me

'Cause I can't make you love me
If you don't
You can't make your heart feel
Something it won't
Here in the dark
In these final hours
I will lay down my heart
And I'll feel the power
But you won't
No, you won't
'Cause I can't make you love me
If you don't

I'll close my eyes
And then I won't see
The love you don't feel
When you're holding me

And morning will come
And I'll do what's right
Just give me till then
To give up this fight

And I will give up this fight

'Cause I can't make you love me
If you don't
You can't make your heart feel
Something it won't
Here in the dark
In these final hours
I will lay down my heart
And I'll feel the power
But you won't
No, you won't
'Cause I can't make you love me
If you don't

The Fullest

(feat. Kirk Franklin)

Let's go

Lately
Underneath this darkened sky
A spark has finally come to life
And washed over me
Steer me
From out of this delusive night
I got so much time for wild surprises
I can't hold them anymore

But how much this could mean to me
I can only imagine
Just how deeply we perceive
All the colors that we found

Would you follow me out on the thin branches?
Going blind, trying to soak up the sun
I believe, I believe, that the space in between
Is what we become
Pedal back through the fog through to second chances
Gotta fly at the end of the fall
And when my hour's up
I wanna say I've filled my cup to the fullest

Yeah
Ha-ha
Yeah
Come on

Breathe
From hibernation, wake to life
Untie the hands and twist the knife
Before we stop going round (woo)
And oh, I know
That it's still so damn hard to try
To plant a flower just to watch it die
Can start to break you down (yes)

But how much further we could see
If we only imagined
Just how deeply we perceive
All the colors that we've found (hah, come on)

Would you follow me out on the thin branches?
Going blind, trying to soak up the sun
I believe, I believe, that the space in between
Is what we become
Pedal back through the fog through to second chances
Gotta fly at the end of the fall
And when my hour's up
I wanna know I've filled my cup to the fullest

Ah-ha
Listen

My friend, don't you give up (don't give up)
Even though you've had enough (had enough)
All the pain that life can bring (lift your head)
Lift your head and just believe (come on)

With eyes wide open
We'll only know then (our love)
Our love can tear down walls (yes, sir)
'Cause I watched them fall
And I can't came back for more (follow)

Come on, follow me out on the thin branches
Going blind, trying to soak up the sun (woo)
I believe, I believe, that the space in between
Is what we become (what we become)
Pedal back through the fog through to second chances
Gotta fly at the end of the fall (and when my hour's up)
And when my hour's up (hey, I wanna know)
I wanna say I've filled my cup, and we'll be singing

Oh, la, la (ooh)
La la la, la la la
Oh, la la la (oh)
Oh, la, la (ha-ha)
La la la, la la la
Oh, la la la (oh, we'll be singing)
Oh, la, la (don't give up now)
La la la, la la la
Oh, la la la (can't give up now)
Oh, la, la
La la la, la la la
Oh, la la la

Oh, la, la (oh)
If the world has ever needed love before
We need it now
Right now
Come on
