@SONG: I Know You're Out There Somewhere
(Justin Hayward)

I know you're out there somewhere
Somewhere somewhere
I know I'll find you somewhere
And somehow I'll return again to you

The mist is lifting slowly
I can see the way ahead
And I've left behind the empty streets
That once inspired my life
And the strength of the emotion
Is like thunder in the air
'Cos the promise that we made each other
Haunts me to the end

CHORUS
I know you're out there somewhere
Somewhere somewhere
I know you're out there somewhere
Somewhere you can hear my voice
I know I'll find you somehow
Somehow somehow
I know I'll find you somehow
And somehow I'll return again to you

The secret of your beauty
And the mystery of your soul
I've been searching for in everyone I meet
And the times I've been mistaken
It's impossible to say
And the grass is growing
Underneath our feet

CHORUS

The words that I remember
>From my childhood still are true
That there's none so blind
As those who will not see
And to those who lack the courage
And say it's dangerous to try
Well they just don't know
That love eternal will not be denied

CHORUS

You know it's going to happen
I can feel you getting near
And soon we'll be returning
To the fountains of our youth
And if you wake up wondering
In the darkness I'll be there
My arms will close around you
And protect you with the truth

CHORUS
----------------------------------------------

@SONG: Want to Be with You
(Justin Hayward/John Lodge)

When I think of all the things
That we've been through
and all the things we've yet to do
I...I start to realise
The world is such a lonely place
Want to be with you

I remember all the heartaches we have known
The angry nights when we were lonely
The jealousy and pain
The world will have to hold its breath
Want to be with you

CHORUS
I don't need a reason
I don't need to understand
I just want to be
Want to be with you
Only want your love
Only want you by my side
Only want to be
Want to be with you

And when I look back down that road
I see the turnings that we both made
The choice we had to make
The promises we break
And nothing more than memories
Want to be with you

The jealousy and pain
Can we remain the same?
The world will have to hold its breath
Want to be with you

CHORUS
--------------------------------------------

@SONG: The River of Endless Love
(Justin Hayward/John Lodge)

I'm looking for a better world
Where there's no more hurt
Where there's only hope
For the eagle and the dove
I can see your face
Nothing can take your place
If we sil away on a river of endless love

I'm living in the hands of time
On the wings of love
On the edge of night
Where there's darkness everywhere
I won't be denied
I'm never going to leave your side
I will always be
On the river of endless love

In the silence just before the dawn
The shadows lost their form
We rise to greet the morning
In the calm that comes before the storm
A troubled and a restless heart is born
The river of endless love

I'm tearing down the walls of hate
Gonna start again gonna turn it around
Gonna build it with a prayer
I can always dream
And nothing is what it seems
If you lose your way
You can always find us there

In the silence just before the dawn
The shashadows lose their form
We rise to greet the morning
In the calm that comes before the storm
A troubled and restless heart is born
The river of endless love
-----------------------------------------------

@SONG: No More Lies
(Justin HHayward)

I need you like you need me
Truly and completely
Never be apart
I think that you should tell me
come right out and tell me
Just what's in your heart

And if you think that it's alright
Let's make a deal and work it out
We'll walk into the sunset you and I
With no more alibis
When we tell each other
No more lies

Well truth is my addiction
Stranger still than fiction
Wider than the sky
And songs that have such feeling
Words that have such meaning
Dreams that never die

And if you think it sounds OK
Let's turn around and start agaiin
We'll walk beside the ocean hand in hand
With no more alibis
When we tell each other
No more lies

I sometimes think that maybe
You're just a little girl
You know I love you baby
I've got to tell the world

So that's the final story
The truth in all its glory
See how much I care
You know you drive me crazy
Thrill me and amaze me
Drive me to despair

And if you think that now feels right
Let's close the door and dim the light
We'll greet the dawn together side by side
JUst look into my eyes
Cause you know I'll tell you
No more lies
------------------------------------------------

@SONG: Here Comes the Weekend
(John Lodge)

Somewhere in the night
There's a heart that beats so fast
I can feel the heat
Of the fire in your eyes
BUrning like a naked flame
Waiting for the ice to break
Counting down the days
Waiting for the weekend

Lonely is the night
Silence is a friend to walk with
With no one else to talk to

CHORUS
But on Friday night
It's alright, it's alright
You can be who you want to be
Take off for the weekend
If you can dance you can dance with me
'Cos it's Friday night
It's alright, it's alright
Nothing's gonna stop me now
I'm all wired up and ready to go
I'm on my way
Let's get on with the show
Here comes the weekend
Here comes the weekend

Somewhere in the heat
There's a heart that beats so fast
I can hear your voice
Talk to me tonight
Taking on a different face
Every time I hear your name
I'm counting down the days
Waiting for the weekend

Lonely is the night
When all are sleeping
Silence is a friend you walk with
With no one else to talk to

CHORUS
-------------------------------------------

@SONG: Vintage Wine
(Justin Hayward)

I remember the taste of the vintage wine
>From '63 through to '69
And I'm proud of the things we believed in then
If I had a chance I'd go around again

Oh I tell you
We wer young and free
Oh I'll tell you
'Cause I was there you see

And I look to the future with open arms
and the songs that flow from my old guitar
and I want to be there when the music plays
And the lights go up on the empty stage

Oh I tell you
Music set me free
Oh I tell you
It sounds so good to me

And if you're into wandering
Underneath the stars
We'll take a trip together
Through this magic world of ours

And if you're still uncertain
JUst what we can be
Well baby make your mind up
Get your things and follow me

'Cause if your into romance baby
Love will find a way
And if you're into dreaming
Dream with me

I remember the sound of the children's prayer
The laughing eyes and the golden hair
And as hard as I try
Not a day goes by
That I don't think of them

I tell you
We can be so free
Oh I tell you
If you'll be there with me
----------------------------------------------------

@SONG: Breaking Point
(Justin Hayward/John Lodge)

Is that the wind
On your face?
Are you sure you're alone?
Are you sure you're alone?

Feel the chill
Of an empty space
Are you sure you're alone?
Are you sure you're alone?

In the middle of the night
Is that your heart you hear
Or a train to nowhere
That's pounding in your ear?

CHORUS
Have you racheached your breaking point?
Have you reached your breaking point tonight?

Only when you're sleeping can you drift away
NO one can hurt you
Listen to the secret of your dreams
Though you want to sleep forever
Still you must return

Hands of ice
Down your spine
Are you sure you're alone?
Are you sure you're alone?

Feel the grip
Of a clinging vine
Are you sure you're alone?
Are you sure you're alone?

In the middle of the night
Is that your voice I hear?
Or the wind that's calling
Back across the years?

CHORUS
----------------------------------------

@SONG: Miracle
(Justin Hayward/John Lodge)

I closed the door and I walked away
>From the life I knew
On a night in JUne
I took a chance and I lost control
Trying to find out why
On a night in July
Why this hesitation
I can feel that the night is slipping away
Wanna drown in the ocean of your love
Wanna dance in the moonlight
Looking for a miracle

I left the city on a wave of despair
To stand on my own
On an August night
Fromhe valley of broken hearats
Gonna make a new start in September
Why this confusion
I can feel that the night is slipping away
Wanna walk from the shadows to the sun
Just to dream on a summer night
Dream about a miracle
Looking for a miracle
Never had the chance before
To turn the tide my way
In the heat of the summer night
You took my breath away
Looking for a miracle

Wanna walk from the shadows of the sun
Just to dream on a summer night
Dream about a miracle
Your love is just a miracle

I closed the door and I walked away
>From the life I knew
On a night in June
I took a chance and I lost control
Trying to find out why
On a night in July
Why this hesitation
I can feel that the night is slipping away
Wanna drown in the ocean of your love
Wanna dance in the moonlight
Looking for a miracle
Looking for a miracle
---------------------------------------------------

@SONG: Love Is on the Run
(John Lodge)

Just beacause it's raining here
It doesn't mean the sun isn't shining

Somewhere else for someone
You have loved
But who's not near you anymore

CHORUS
When your love is on the run
Don't fall apart at what's begun
It's just the healing process
Of your heart
When your dream has lost its cause
Don't waste your time in closing doors
YOu'll be the last to know
When love has gone
Love is on the run
Love is on the run
Love is on the run from me
Love is on the run
Love is on the run
Love is on the run from me

Couldn't find the words to say I love you
Couldn't fight the hurt of holding on
Couldn't hope
Couldn't dream
Couldn't see tomorrow
Without your love
I can't go on

Love is on the run
Love is on the run
Love is on the run from me

CHORUS
--------------------------------------------------

@SONG: Deep
(Justin Hayward)

Every time I hear the sound of the rain
Beating on my roof again
I want to taste your love
And I want to go deep
Deep
I want to go deep
Deep
I want to go deep

Every time I lift my eyes to the sky
Something in my heart asks why
I want to know the truth
And I want to go deep
Deep
I want to go deep

Like the footprints
Disappearing fromhe sand
I try to catch the thought
It slps right through my hand
And as the darkness
Throws its cloak upon the ground
I start to run to you
I've got to take you down
I want to go deep
Deep
I want to go deep
Deep
I want to go deep

Every time I feel I'm losing my way
The power of your love remains
I want to touch your love
An' I want to go deep
Deep
I want to go deep
Deep
I want to go deep
Deep
I want to go deep
