Because lyrics

Because I love you more
Than words could ever say
I can live again
With no regrets of dreams that died before you came

Because I know this time
This love is really mine
I can love again
And touch the stars that seemed so very far away

There's a world for us to find
Far beyond the rainbow line
And new horizons everyday
With love to guide us all the way
Eternally, eternally

Because you came to me

With all my dream to see
I can give again
With no regrets for all I gave before you came

There's a world for us to find
Far beyond the rainbow line
And new horizons everyday
With love to guide us all the way
Eternally, eternally

There's a world for us to find
Far beyond the rainbow line
And new horizons everyday
With love to guide us all the way
Because there's you, because there's you

My face in the rain lyrics

My face in the rain
I walk all alone
It's Sunday time is slow,
I'm happy that is all I know

My thoughts to the sun
I'm walking all alone
In a state of grace
All my life is on my own
I am happy that is all I know

My face in the rain,
and everything is [falling] now
my life is a song
It's Sunday time is slow,
I'm happy now, that is all I know

[interlude]

My face in the rain
rain falling down in a state of grace
I'm walking all alone now
I'm happy now that is all I know

My face to the sun,
I'm walking all alone
In a state of love
Ooh, It's Sunday time is slow
I'm happy now that is all I know

My face, looking at the rain (sing it again now)
I'm walking all alone
walking all alone now (walking all alone, all right)
a Sunday, and a Sunday afternoon
I'm walking all alone
and I am happy now
hm

Ooo, My face [up/at] the sun (Oh yeah)
I'm walking all alone now (walking all alone all right)
Sunday, Sunday
and my face in the rain
and I'm happy, but I'm happy that I was all alone
happy, happy, now
'cause I'm walking all alone

happy, happy, now
'cause I'm walking all alone
happy, happy, now
I'm just walking all alone
happy, happy, now
I'm just walking all alone
happy, happy, now
I'm just walking all alone
happy, happy, now
I'm just walking all alone...

Let it happen lyrics

Let it happen
Honey don't you live on the edge of your life
Let it happen
Honey don't you live on the edge of a sigh
Let it happen
Honey don't you live on the edge of a smile
Let it happen
Honey don't you live on the edge of your time
Baby all you got to do
Is let the rythm get to you

Baby all you got to do
Is let the rythm get to you

Let it happen
Honey take a ride on the wheel of life
Let it happen
Open up your heart to the wheel of life
Let it happen
You can put your trust to the wheel of life
Let it happen
Throw away your fear on the wheel of life
Baby all you got to do
Is let the rythm get to you
Baby all you got to do
Is let the rythm get to you

[interlude]

All you need is love on the wheel of life

Honey don't you live on the edge of a sigh

Let it happen
All you need is love on the wheel of life

Let it happen
Honey don't you live on the edge of a sigh

Baby all you got to do
Is let the rythm get to you

Baby all you got to do
Is let the rythm get to you

Let it happen
All you need is love on the wheel of life

Let it happen
All you need is love on the wheel of life

Let it happen
All you need is love on the wheel of life

Let it happen
All you need is love on the wheel of life

All you need is love on the wheel of life

All you need is love on the wheel of life

All you need is love on the wheel of life

All you need is love on the wheel of life

The promise lyrics

The promise that I never asked for
Yet somehow I long for was my only possession
A shelter and changing through fire and rain

A reason to go on and live for
Never took the game for and afraid of the seasons

The lost dream that found me
And I loved again
An hour, do I go from here

I love you forever
You meant it when you said it
I love you, I still do
What will I do without you?

It can't be, just simply can't be
You and I can't take it we've been [through] of moments
Tomorrow will guide us
Tomorrow will show

I love you forever
You meant it I know
An hour, do I go from here

[interlude]

I love you, I still do
What will I do without you?

It can't be, just simply can't be
You and I can't take it we've been [through] of moments
Tomorrow will guide us
Tomorrow will show
I love you forever
You meant it I know

The promise, the promise

Song for you lyrics

In me a silence as in your words
Glide like some crazy fall of nightbirds
I'm full of sky and music too

Wanna make a song for you
I wanna make a song for you
I wanna make a song for you

Just can believe [a touch is so light]
Laughing like in a circus all the time
Like [their go gesture] born anew

Wanna make a song for you
I wanna make a song for you

[interlude]

Drunk on the passing by of each day
Wanting to sing your fragrance, your grace
There's really good music floating on my song
I wanna make a song for you
I wanna make a song for you
I just wanna make a song for you

In me a silence as in your words
Glide like some crazy fall of nightbirds
I'm full of sky and music too
I wanna make a song for you
I just wanna make a song for you
