LANDSLIDE
"I took my love and I took it down
I climed a mountian and i turned around
And i saw my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well the landslide brought mw down
Oh, mirror in the sky
What is love
Can the child within my heart rise above
Can i sail through the seasons of my life
Well I've been afraid of changing 'cause I built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Children get older
I'm getting older too.
Well...well, I've been afraid of changing 'cause I built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Children get older
I'm getting older too
Well, I'm getting older too
So take this love and take it down
Yeah and if you climb a mountian and ya turn around
And see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well the landslide brought me down
And if you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well maybe
Well maybe
Well maybe the landslide will bring you down."
TRAVELIN' SOLIDER
"Two days past eighteen
He was waiting for the bus in his army greens
Sat dow in a booth in a cafe there
Gave his order to a girl with a bow in her hair
He's a little shy so she gave him a smile
And he said would you mind sittin' down for awhile
And talking to me, I'm feeling a little low.
She said I'm off in an hour and I know where we can go
So they went down an they sat on the pier
He said I bet you got a boyfriend but I dont care
I got no one to send a letter to
Would you mind if I sent one back here to you
CHORUS: I cried
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
Too young for him they told her
Waitin' for the love of a travelin' solider
Our love will never end
Waitin' for the solider to come back again
Never more to be alone when the letter said
A soliders comming home
So the letters came from an army camp
In Calafornia then Vietnam
And he told her of his heart
It might be love and all of the things he was so scared of
He said when it's getting kinda rough over here
I think of that day sittin' down at the pier
And I close my eyes and see your pretty smile
Don't worry but I wont be able to write for awhile
CHORUS
One friday night ata a football game
The Lord's prayer said and the anthem sang
A man said folks would you bow your heads
For a list of local Vietnam dead
Crying all alone under the stands
Was a piccolo player in the marching band
And one name read and nobody really cared
But a pretty little girl with a bow in her hair
CHORUS
CHORUS"
MORE LOVE
"I'm so close to you baby
But I'm so far away
There's a silence between us
And there's sp much to say
You're my faith, you're my doubt
We gotta meet in the middle
To work this thing out
CHORUS: More love, I can hear our hearts cryin'
More love, I know that's all we need
More love, to flow in between us
To take us and hold us and lift us above
If there's ever an answer
It's more love
We're afraid to be idle
So we fill up the days
We run on the treadmill
Keep slavin' away 'til there's no time for talkin'
About trouble in mind
And the doors are all closed
Between your heart and mine
CHORUS
Just look out around us
People fightin' thier wars
They think they'll be happy
When they've settled thier scores
Let's lay down our weapons
That hold us apart
Be still for just a minute
Try to open our hearts
CHORUS"
I BELIEVE IN LOVE
"I made a promise to myself
Locked it away deep down inside
Told my heart we'd wait it out
Swore we'd never compromise
Oh I'd rather be alone
Like I am tonight
Than settle for the kind of love
That fades before the morning light
Silence stared me in the face
And I finally heard its voice
It seemed to softly say
That in love you have a choice
Today I got the answer
And there's a world of truth behind it
Love is out there waiting somewhere
You just have to go and find it
CHORUS: I believe in love
I beileve in love
A love thats real, love that's strong
Love that lives on and on
Yes I believe in love
CHORUS"
