Cry Baby

Hold back the tears
Into each life a little rain must fall
So, if they’ve gone and left you lonely
now don’t you let ‘em see you beg and crawl

Wipe dry your eyes
Though every night alone it makes you cry
Cuz' if your lover made you sorry
don’t let it bring you down

Back when it started you were so in love
and everything was right
Each tender kiss it made your heart alive
It made you feel so right

And now you know it’s really over
but you just hold on to the pain
You could be over it by now

So don’t you cry baby
Don’t you cry baby
I’ll tell you why baby

‘Cause I’m so sick of hearing
how they let you down and broke your heart

Now don’t you cry baby
Don't you cry baby

Don’t let ‘em have
more than they’ve already taken
Listen to me,
you know it’s you that you’ve forsaken now, yeah!

Hold back the tears
Into each life a little rain must fall
So if they’ve gone and left you lonely,
now don’t you let ‘em see ya beg and crawl

Wipe dry your eyes
Though every night alone it makes you cry
Cuz' if your lover made you sorry
don’t let it bring you down

You never thought you’d hear those words again
You thought true love was true
You shared your heart and got it broke again
Somehow that’s nothing new

And don’t they always leave you cryin'
but you can never see it’s you
Runnin’ down the same old accusations
until you’re blue

So don’t you cry baby
You tell your lies baby
Realize baby
That the only one you know you’re really lying to is you

Now don’t you cry baby
Don’t you cry baby

Listen to me
It’s in one ear and out the other
You gotta change
To find that true love is forever and ever
To stay together
And leave you never
You last forever
It’s sunny weather
So don’t you cry, baby!

Seven Stars

So the lights go down again
as a day comes to an end
All the years have passed us by
but I still miss you my friend

Ah, the life that we lead
turns away to the sea
To the end of time
in the endless fire
of the Seven Stars

Every dream becomes a means
to the world beyond our eyes
Destination never seen
just a moment in our lives

All the way through the sky
Galaxies fall away

A love that hides
within the night
of the Seven Stars...

A love that hides
within the night
of the Seven Stars

Every tragedy denies
what The Word has come to be
Turn away from endless lies
to the Sprit that we see

Ah, the light that we bring
never fades and never leaves
The endless day
on the endless way
to the Seven Stars

The endless day
on the endless way
to the Seven Stars...

God's Little Creatures
Thompson

Fish gotta' swim and birds gotta' fly
God’s little creatures all gotta' try
for what they want,
for what they need

You know, older and younger, all the way you feel
Nothin’ ever changes that doesn’t make it really
what they want
and what they need

Over and over, such a simple game
Only keep shouting and calling on His name
The tides keep rising
the wind keeps blowing strong

If you've got the means then you know the way
Just a little further to break out of the fray
It’s all you want
It’s all you need

~~(Instr.)~~

Anything can happen you just got to believe
Get up in the morning and start shaking those trees
So keep on going and
don’t look back and cry

All the world’s a stage and you can make a play
It’s just a little further to make it all the way
It’s all you live
and all you’ll be

Fish gotta swim and birds gotta fly
God’s little creatures all wonder why
It's what we want
and what we need

But bolder and stronger, just a frame of mind
All comin’ together, making it unwind
For what we want,
and what we need!

Stranger Things

You show up and remind me
of everything I’ve got.
To keep things simple
and a little can mean a lot.
Paths we walk double back
on paths that we forgot.
Life may not be a lie, but it can seem stranger
than some fictional plot.

We make more of nothing
that isn’t really there.
Like the orange glow over Leavenworth
that lights up the air.
But that light means more than most things
so I don’t really care.
If we’re just some lonesome fools
I’m just glad that you are there.

Stranger things have happened
but I can't remember when.
I just walk on through the fog
and there you are my friend.
~~(Instr.)~~

All those lines on the freeway
they mark off sacred ground
that stretches out between us,
a distance closed by sound.

And the shirt on my back is already yours,
you gave it to me in the first place.
As I recall it was raining hard
and the wind was in my face.

And stranger things have happened
as I’m sure they will again.
But I was tripping through the fog
and there you were my friend.

See these seeds we planted
pushing through the soil.
Reaching for the sun - we can taste the fruit
before it gets a chance to spoil.
It couldn't go better if we'd planned it
we might as well be staring at the moon.
Or wearing a smile that says it all, cause for a while
it was all the way true.

Stranger things may happen
and you know they will again.
Cause sometimes the fog burns off
and it's all so clear my friend.

All Gonna be There
Thompson/Lovelace

Well we’re all gone be there
we’re all gonna be there
‘Cause somehow we’re all gonna get there alright

Well we’ll know who we see there
so happy to be there
Just laughin’ and waitin’ to see you again

They always told you to live for today
Said tomorrow will bring its own way
No fears or worries, so don’t be afraid
Take my hand, we’ll get by one more day

'Cause we're all gonna be there,
we’re all gonna be there
Yeah, somehow we’re all gonna get there alright

Well we’ll know who we'll see there,
so happy to be there
Just laughin’ and waitin’ to see you again

Sometimes it seems like there’s just no way out
No matter how hard that you try
So hard to know what this world’s all about
Don’t know whether to laugh or to cry

But we're all gonna be there,
we’re all gonna be there
Yeah, somehow we’re all gonna get there alright

Well, we’ll know who we'll see there,
so happy to be there
Just laughin’ and waitin’ to see you again

The darkest moments
can seem so alone
But the light’s always shining inside you
Lift up your eyes
‘cause you’re never alone
Yeah that light keeps on shining inside you – in you!

~~(Instr.)~~

Well, we’re all gonna' be there
we’re all gonna' be there
‘Yeah somehow we’re all gonna' get there alright

Well, we’ll know who we see there
so happy to be there
Just laughin’ and waitin’ to see you again!
