posted by lucaslover528

In this world there’s much confusion
And I’ve tasted city life and it’s not for me
Now I do dream of distant places
Where I don’t know now but its destiny

If it’s the rich life I don’t want it
Happiness ain’t always material things

I want Destiny
It’s the place for me yeah yeah yeah
Give me the simple life
I’m getting away from here
Let me be me, come on let me feel free

Now I’m a man that’s for all seasons
And what the city offers me ain’t naturally
I look to greet the stars
But there’s no stars to see
I’m gonna search this world until I find my destiny

If it’s the rich life I don’t want it
Happiness ain’t always material things

I want destiny
It’s the place for me yeah, yeah, yeah
Give me the simple life
I’m getting away from here
Let me be me, come on let me feel free, let me be me

I wanna get far from here
Should I up and fly away so fancy free, yeah
Nobody can change my mind
The words of destiny are calling me
While time

I want destiny
It’s the place for me yeah
Ah destiny
You and me, do it my way
So fancy free
Ah destiny
You and me
So fancy free
Destiny
Ah destiny

THE JOY YOU BRING TO ME EACH DAY
MAKES LONLINESS SEEM FAR AWAY
IT ALL BEGINS AND ENDS WITH LOVE

EACH TIME YOU'RE NEAR I FEEL SO GOOD

Lyrics to If You'd Only Believe

posted by lucaslover528

I have seen love make men stagger
Prey on their weakness and wound
Their pride
But you won't be touched by its dagger

When you're close by my side
If you'd only believe
Ooh, ooh, ooh
If you'd only believe
Ooh, ooh, ooh

What your love means to me
(And) I will climb with you the mountain
Sail the shining deep blue sea
'Til we find a place where we can go

Where a soul can be free
Ooh, ooh, ooh
If you'd only believe
Ooh, ooh, ooh

What your love means to me
And if the sky comes
Tumbling down
Raining too hard for you to see
That's the time when you need

Someone around
And who's got a shoulder like me?
Can you tell me what...

Hallelujah Day
Sing Hallelujah
Love is on it's way
It's coming to ya

Children gather 'round now
Clap your hands and sing
That old sun is shinin' down
Soon the bell are gonna ring, yes they will now

Can't you see that ray of hope
Somebody finally saw the light
They're gonna send our bothers home
It's gonna be alright, yea

Sing Hallelujah
Love is on it's way

Let the good times roll
We can make this last forever
If you feel it in your soul

Somebody found the key
Somebody open up the door
Now there'll be dancing...

Lyrics to Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas

posted by lucaslover528

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on
Our troubles will be out of sight

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the Yuletide gay
From now on
Our troubles will be miles away

Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more

Through the years we all will be together
If the fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now

Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once...

Lyrics to Give It Up

posted by lucaslover528

I don't know what you do to me
But this feeling is here to be
I hope it's love and one day we'll see the moon
Take my hand and we'll fly away
A love so new till the dying day
A life so true all you have to say is you will

You've got to believe in something
You've got to believe in
Give it up
Give it up
My love is true now
Say me and you now
Give it up
Give it up

Just say the word and I'm screaming out your name
So make it true, to make it us
Just give me half a chance
I need your love,
Hope it's me your thinkin' of
A love to give, I can't live
Just give me half the chance

I don't know what you do to me
But this feeling is here to be
Just say that you'll be giving me your love

All you got to do is
Give it up, give it up
Give it up, give it up
Give it up, give it up
Give it up, give it up

All you got to do is
Give it up, give it up
Give it up, give it up
Give it up, give it up
Give it up, give it up

Lyrics to Everybody

posted by lucaslover528

Oh, everybody, get down on the floor
I love the way you shake your thing
You make me want some more

I've had my days of standing on shaky ground
I want my life so fancyfree
I know that I can do it
I have to let me be
And I've had enough
And I know what's right for me

I've done my time and I have paid the price
All you have to do
Is state my name out loud
Forget your worries
And let's dance and shout
All you have to do
Is state my name out loud

Oh, everybody, get down on the floor
I love the way you shake your thing
You make me want some more

This time I'm leaving all my cares behind
I've tasted the good life and...

Lyrics to Can You Feel It

posted by lucaslover528

can you feel it,can you feel it,can you feel it!

if you look around
the whole world's coming together now.
can you feel it,can you feel it,can you feel it!
feel it in the air
the wind is taking it everywhere.
can you feel it,can you feel it,can you feel it!

all the colors of the world should be
lovin' each other wholeheartedly.
yes it's alright,take my message to your brother and tell him twice.
spread the word who tried to teach the man who is hatin' his brother,
when hate won't do
'cause we're all the same
yes the blood inside of me is inside of you.

now tell me!

can you feel it,can you feel it,can you...

BREEZY, YEAH

THEY SAY THAT YOU'LL BE GONE
NEVER STAY TOO LONG
WON'T LET LOVE BEGIN
AND YOU CHANGED LIKE THE WIND
GIRL I GOT YOU ON MY MIND

LOVE IS COMING ON
AND I FEEL IT GETTING STRONG
TRYING EVERYWAY I KNOW
TO MAKE YOU NEVER WANT TO GO
THE WIND THAT BROUGHT YOU HERE IS GONE
WHY RACE BACK TO WHERE YOU BELONG

Lyrics to Alright With Me

posted by lucaslover528

Yah tell me lies
It brings me down down
I sacrificed do all I can for you
Then you throw me away

It's hard to figure out
If you want me
If you need me
I just have to wait and see

Alright it's alright
Alright with me
There's nothing you can do
To turn and make me walk away

Alright it's alright
Alright with me
I don't care what people say
I'm gonna love you anyway

Must be love
You misused the person in me
(Yeah, you did)
Like a hand in glove
Always thought how we could be

I can't turn back the times
When you were all mine
Try to love you
Try to please you

I just have to wait and see
Alright it's alright
Alright with me
I don't care what peole say

I'm gonna love you any way
Alright it's alright
Alright with me
There's nothing you can do
To turn and make me walk away

Lyrics to Art Of Madness

posted by lucaslover528

I can't help the things I do
Tho' they might seem strange to you
Got my mind, just spinnin' round
Inside, outside, upside down
There's an art to all this madness
Tho' it seems insane to you

There's a rhyme to all the reason
In everything I do
Have you any imagination
Of what I'm goin' through
There's art to all this madness
I'm just crazy over you

People just can't understand
They don't think I'm a normal man
So tell me why they walk around
Using half of their brain
You tell me now who's insane
There's an art to all this madness
Tho' it seems insane to you

There's a rhyme to all the reason
In everything I do
Have...

Lyrics to 2300 Jackson Street

posted by lucaslover528

2300 Jackson street
2300 Jackson street
2300 Jackson street

Memories of growing up
And working hard
Our childhood passed us by

Mom and Dad
They sacrificed their wants and needs
So we could reach the light

Although the times were tough for us
We knew they both worked hard
They gave us all their hearts could give

And still made room for love
We're all united
And standing strong
And still today
We're one big family

(chorus)
2300 Jackson Street
Always home
2300 Jackson Street
Always home

Oooooo
In harmony, together we'll
Join Hands and sing
Our love across the land

Remember we always said, if we...
