 Promised You A Miracle

Promised you a miracle belief is a beauty thing
Promises promises as golden days break wondering
Chance as love takes a train summer breeze and brilliant light
One love she sees He controls on love love sails to a new life

Promised you a miracle belief is a beauty thing
Promises promises as golden days break wondering
Only love she sees he controls on love life mirrors a cure
Everything is possible with promises everything is possible

I promised you a miracle belief is a beauty thing
Promises promises as golden days break wondering
Chance reflects on them a while love screams so quietly
Slipping back on golden times breathing with sweet memories
Promised you a miracle belief is a beauty thing
Promises promises as golden days break wondering
Only love she sees He controls on love life mirrors a cure
Everything is possible in the game of life everything is possible

Chance lost pearls of great price take care of family
Only aches for love love waits for fame in chance in chance they'll see
I promised you a miracle belief is a beauty thing
Promises promises as golden days break wondering
Only love she sees he controls on love life throws a cure
Everything is possible in the game of life
A burning dream you can be Queen everything is possible

Alive And Kicking

You turn me on, you lift me up
And like the sweetest cup I'd share with you
You lift me up, don't you ever stop, I'm here with you
Now it's all or nothing because you say you'll follow through
You follow me, and I follow you

What you gonna do when things go wrong?
What you gonna do when it all cracks up?
What you gonna do when the Love burns down?
What you gonna do when the flames go up?
Who is gonna come and turn the tide?
What's it gonna take to make a dream survive?
Who's got the touch to calm the storm inside who's gonna save you?
Alive and Kicking
Stay until your love is, Alive and Kicking
Stay until your love is, until your love is, Alive

You lift me up to the crucial top, so I can see
You lead me on, till the feelings come and the lights that shine on
But if that don't mean nothing like if someday it should fall through
You'll take me home where the magic's from and I'll be with you

What you gonna do when things go wrong?
What you gonna do when it all cracks up?
What you gonna do when the Love burns down?
What you gonna do when the flames go up?
Who is gonna come and turn the tide?
What's it gonna take to make a dream survive?
Who's got the touch to calm the storm inside?
Don't say goodbye in the final seconds who's gonna save you?
Alive and Kicking
Stay until your love is, love is, Alive and Kicking
Alive and Kicking
Stay until your love is, love is, Alive and Kicking

Don't You (Forget About Me)

Won't you come see about me I'll be alone dancing you know it
Tell me your troubles and doubts giving me everything inside and out 
And love's strange so real in the dark think of the tender things that we were working on
Slow change may pull us apart when the light gets into your heart
Don't you forget about me
Don't you forget about me

Will you stand above me look my way, never love me rain keeps falling down
Will you recognise me call my name or walk on by rain keeps falling down
Don't you try to pretend it's my feeling we'll win in the end
I won't harm you or touch your defenses vanity, insecurity
Don't you forget about me I'll be alone, dancing you know it
Going to take you apart I'll put us back together at heart
Don't you forget about me
Don't you forget about me

As you walk on by will you call my name?
As you walk on by will you call my name?
When you walk away  will you walk away?
Will you walk on by come on, call my name
Will you call my name?
When you walk on by and you call my name

Belfast Child

When my love said to me meet me down by the gallow tree.
For it's sad news I bring, about this old town and all that it's offering.
Some say troubles abound some day soon they're gonna pull the old town down.
One day we'll return here when the Belfast Child sings again

Brothers, sisters, where are you now as I look for you right through the crowd.
All my life here I've spent with my faith in God the Church and the Government.
But there's sadness abound some day soon they're gonna pull the old town down.
One day we'll return here when the Belfast Child sings again,

So come back Billy, won't you come on home?
Come back Mary, you've been away so long.
The streets are empty, and your mother's gone.
The girls are crying, it's been so long.
And your father's calling, come on home.
Won't you come on home, won't you come on home?
Come back people, you've been gone a while,
And the war is raging, through the Emerald Isle.
That's flesh and blood man, that's flesh and blood,
All the girls are crying but all's not lost.
The streets are empty, the streets are cold.
Won't you come on home, won't you come on home?
The streets are empty life goes on.
One day we'll return here when the Belfast Child sings again,

She's A River

Shadow let go there's something you should know
I just found my new direction and I hope you like the key
Like the air that led me to it she's like the wind that sucked me through it
She's a river and she's turning there in front of me
Stand back get back She'll paint your blue skies black
She gives bullet proof protection got a resurrection feel
When I'm scared, and about to lose she gives me travelling shoes
She's a river and she's turning in front of me and I go blind wasting my time
While the rivers in front of me that's where I'm going to be

Shine on, get on twilight from dusk to dawn
She's the spirit of creation She's the last chance guarantee
Got a myriad of poses sweet miracles and roses
She's a river and she's turning in front of me
Because when I find my state of mind
The river's in front of me that's where I'm going to be

They say that every heaven's got a thousand rooms so take me on that freedom ride
My heart is like a hunter's in the silent moon my nerves just feel electrified
Meet me on the staircase outside a darkened room light me like a naked flame
The voice of Mother Nature states all things must pass and nothing can remain
They say that every heaven's got a thousand rooms so take me on that freedom ride
You raise me like a building to the very top rush me to the end of time
You fill me full of danger you give me future shock then you leave me wasted dying
Stand back get back she is a river and she's turning in front of me 
And I go blind wasting my time the river's in front of me
