Gave me your heart, gave me everything you had
When I was down and needed you the most
Showed me love when I knew not what love was
You shared your laughs and kissed away the tears
You're my life, you're the hand that leads me through
Forever, baby, I'll keep on loving you
I would crawl for a million miles, just to kiss the lips that made me smile
Oh, that made me smile
I was blind, I was on the run
The night has a thousand eyes, a heart but one, oh, the heart but one
I just melt when your eyes meet mine
Oh the thought of holding you, oh just the thought of
It's all your love (it's all your love) that keeps me hanging on (hangin' on)
I count the days without you by my side
It's all your love (it's all your love)
That keeps my dreams alive (dreams alive)
And girl I can't thank you enough
For all your love
Tell me, child, will you love me when I grow old
Will your tender touch be the same?
Cause your heart means to me a world of gold
And without you, baby, I'd be lost and cold
You make me feel like a superman
I could take on the whole world with just one hand, oh, just one hand
Girl, you make me feel so alive
I could climb the highest mountain and touch the sky, oh, yes I can
I can't wait to make love tonight
Just the thought of holding you, oh just the thought of
It's all your love (it's all your love) that keeps me hanging on (hangin' on)
I count the days without you by my side
It's all your love (it's all your love)
That keeps my dreams alive (dreams alive)
And girl I can't thank you enough
It's all your love (it's all your love) that keeps me hanging on (hangin' on)
I count the days without you by my side
It's all your love (it's all your love)
That keeps my dreams alive (dreams alive)
And girl I can't thank you enough
It keeps me hangin', keeps me hangin' on
It's all your love that keeps me hangin' on
It's all your love (it's all your love) that keeps my dreams alive
And girl I can't thank you enough for all your love


 
On the turning away
From the pale and downtrodden
And the words they say
Which we won't understand
"Don't accept that what's happening
Is just a case of others' suffering
Or you'll find that you're joining in
The turning away"
It's a sin that somehow
Light is changing to shadow
And casting it's shroud
Over all we have known
Unaware how the ranks have grown
Driven on by a heart of stone
We could find that we're all alone
In the dream of the proud
On the wings of the night
As the daytime is stirring
Where the speechless unite
In a silent accord
Using words you will find are strange
And mesmerized as they light the flame
Feel the new wind of change
On the wings of the night
No more turning away
From the weak and the weary
No more turning away
From the coldness inside
Just a world that we all must share
It's not enough just to stand and stare
Is it only a dream that there'll be
No more turning away?


 
And so we sail towards the dawn, joining those who gently mourn for you
It's only because of you
Friends may come and friends may go, the only friend I need to know is you
It's only because of you
Mighty castles, lonely kings, hear the ragged children sing it's you
It's only because of you
He who smiles at lofty schemes, stems the tide of broken dreams is you
It's only because of you

And when the storms have died away, only truth will live to say it's you
It's only because of you
And when the darkness flies away, only love will shine to say it's true
It's only because of you


 
Red and yellow seasons change in gear, oh yeah
Giving her all I am and reaching out for loving care
And you know she can feel it oh yeah
You know she doesn't have to try

Going on forever oh yeah
Knowing that's the reason why
She said tonight is a wonderful time to fall in love oh yeah
Tonight is a wonderful time to fall in love
Let's fall in love
Let's fall in love
The two of us together, oh yeah
Doing things the way we do
And nothing seems to matter, oh no
As long as I can be with you
And you know she can feel it
'Cause that's the way she likes to fly
Going on forever oh yeah
And knowing that's the reason why
She said tonight is a wonderful time to fall in love oh yeah
Tonight is a wonderful time to fall in love
Let's fall in love
Let's fall in love
Love is such a sweet thing, oh yeah
It's easy when you realize
These moments are forever, oh yeah
It's magic and it's in her eyes
She said tonight is a wonderful time to fall in love oh yeah
Tonight is a wonderful time to fall in love
Let's fall in love
Let's fall in love



Well I wonder some times as I look at you
Was it so very long ago
There were times
There were so many times
Holding on
And it comes only
Once in your life
There maybe just a chance
I'll live with you
Maybe you
Maybe someone like you
Someone like you
If a day should go by and I'm without you
Moves so slowly it never ends
All the while
Wondering how it could be
Does he know
That it comes only once in your life
There maybe just a chance
I'll live with you
Maybe you
Maybe someone like you
Someone like you
Someone like you
Someone like you
Once in your life
Someone like you
Want someone like you



You, carry me away
Well I'm not holding on to the past another day
Come and stand by me
We'll leave no stone or rock un-turned, just take the lead
And don't walk away
Turn to me
Don't walk away
All my nights and all my days
Well I'll be holding on to you, don't slip away
Won't you take control
Well sometimes I say what I don't mean, but it's just a show
Just don't walk away
I'll be your fool
Don't walk away
From tomorrow
You leave, I'll follow
The more I stay
The more I need
The more I take
The more I believe
Into the dark, you turn to me
Well we can throw our heartbroken worlds into the breeze
Just don't walk away
I'll be your fool
Don't walk away
From tomorrow
You leave, I'll follow
The more I stay
The more I need
The more I take
The more I believe
And all my nights and all my days
Well I'll be holding on to you each step you take
Well don't walk away
Turn to me
Don't walk away
Baby please
Don't turn away
Turn to me
Just don't walk away
Don't walk away
