Faithfully - Journey

Highway run
Into the midnight sun
Wheels go 'round and 'round
You're on my mind
Restless hearts
Sleep alone tonight
Sendin' all my love
Along the wire

They say that the road
Ain't no place to start a family
Right down the line
It's been you and me
And lovin' a music man
Ain't always what it's s'posed to be
Oh girl, you stand by me
I'm forever yours
Faithfully

Circus life
Under the big top world
We all need the clowns
To make us smile
Through space and time
Always another show
Wondering where I am
Lost without you

And being apart ain't easy
On this love affair
Two strangers learn
To fall in love again
I get the joy
Of rediscovering you
Oh girl, you stand by me
I'm forever yours
Faithfully

I'll Be Alright Without You - Journey

I've been thinkin' about the times
You walked out on me
There were moments I'd believe
You were there
Do I miss you
Or am I lying to myself again

I do these things
(It's all because of you)
I keep holding on, but I'll try
(Try not to think of you)
Love, don't leave me lonely

(Chorus)
I'll be alright without you
There'll be someone else
I keep telling myself
I'll be alright without you
Oh, love's an empty face
I got replace it
(You don't need it)

People wonderin'
Why we broke apart
The great pretender
Here I go again

These things I do
(It's all because of you)
I'll keep holding on
But I'll try
(Try not to think of you)
All I wanted was to hold you

(Chorus)

(Chorus)

Any Way You Want It - Journey

Any way you want it
That's the way you need it
Any way you want it

She loves to laugh
She loves to sing
She does everything
She loves to move
She loves to groove
She loves the lovin' things

Ooh, all night, all night
Oh, every night
So hold tight, hold tight
Ooh baby, hold tight

Oh, she said
"Any way you want it
That's the way you need it
Any way you want it"
She said
"Any way you want it
That's the way you need it
Any way you want it"

I was alone
I never knew
What good love could do
Ooh, then we touched
and we sang
About the lovin' things

Ooh, all night, all night
Oh, every night
So hold tight, hold tight
Ooh baby, hold tight

Oh, she said
"Any way you want it
That's the way you need it
Any way you want it"

Oh, I said
"Any way you want it
That's the way you need it
Any way you want it"

She said, "Hold On - Hold on, hold on, hold on"

Oh - she said, "Any way you want it
That's the way you need it
Any way you want it"

"Any way you want it
That's the way you need it
Any way you want it"

She said, "Any way you want it
That's the way you need it
Any way you want it"

"Any way you want it
That's the way you need it
Any way you want it"

Ask The Lonely - Journey

You've been picked and it's over
What's that chip on your shoulder?
Outside were solid rainbows
Inside is where the heart grows
Picking up the pieces
Something more to believe in
As you search the embers
Think what you had, remember
Hang on, don't go let go now
You know, with every heartbeat
We love, nothing comes easy

Hang on, ask the lonely

You've got some fascination
With your high expectations
This love is your obsession
Your heart, your past possession
Let down your defenses
Won't be up to the one who cares
As you search the embers
Think what you had, remember
Hang on, don't go let go now
You know, with every heartbeat
We love, nothing comes easy

Hang on, ask the lonely
(Chorus)
When you're feeling love's unfair, you just ask the lonely
When you're lost in deep despair, you just ask the lonely

(Chorus 2x)

Ask the lonely

When you're down in deep despair
When you're down in deep despair
Ask the lonely, lonely, lonely
(as song fades out)Ask the lonely

Who's Crying Now - Journey

It's been a mystery
And still they try to see
Why something good can hurt so bad

Caught on a one way street
The taste of bittersweet
Love will survive somehow, some way

One love feeds the fire
One heart burns desire
I wonder who's crying now
Two hearts born to run
Who'll be the lonely one
I wonder who's crying now

So many stormy nights
So many wrongs or rights
Neither could change their headstrong ways

And in a lover's rage
They tore another page
The fightin' is worth the love they save

One love feeds the fire
One heart burns desire
I wonder who's crying now
Two hearts born to run
Who'll be the lonely one
I wonder who's crying now

Only so many tears you can cry
'Til the heartache is over
And now you can say your love
Will never die

One love feeds the fire
One heart burns desire
I wonder who's crying now
Two hearts born to run
Who'll be the lonely one
I wonder who's crying now

Separate Ways (World's Apart) - Journey

Here we stand
Worlds apart hearts broken in two...two...two
Sleepless nights
Losing ground I'm reaching for you...you...you

Feeling that it's gone
Can change your mind
If we can't go on
To survive the tide love divides

Someday love will find you
Break those chains that bind you
One night will remind you
How we touched and went our seperate ways
If he ever hurts you
True love won't desert you
You know I still love you
Though we touched and went our seperate ways

Troubled times
Caught between confusion and pain...pain...pain
Distant eyes
Promises we made were in vain...in vain...in vain

If you must go I wish you love
You'll never walk alone
Take care my love
Miss you love

Ohhhhh
Someday love will find you
Break those chains that bind you
One night will remind you

If he ever hurts you
True love won't desert you
You know I still love you

I still love you, girl
I really love you, girl
And if he ever hurts you
True love won't desert you

Lights - Journey

When the lights go down in the City
And the sun shines on the bay
I want to be there in my City ooh, ooh
(Ooh, Ooh, Ooh)

So you think you're lonely
Well my friend I'm lonely too
I want to get back to my City by the bay
(Ooh, Ooh, Ooh)

It's sad,
Oh there's been mornings
out on the road without you,
Without your charms,
Ooh, Ooh, my, my, my, my, my, my
(Ooh, Ooh, Ooh)

When the lights go down in the City
And the sun shines on the bay
I want to be there in my City ooh, ooh
(Ooh, Ooh, Ooh)

(Solo)

When the lights go down in the City
And the sun shines on the bay
I want to be there in my City ooh, ooh
(Ooh, Ooh, Ooh)
Mmmmmm

(Ooh, Ooh, Ooh)

Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin' - Journey

You make me weep
And wanna die
Just when
you said we'd try
Lovin', touchin', squeezin'
Each other

When I'm alone
All by myself
You're out
With someone else
Lovin', touchin', squeezin'
Each other

You're tearin' me apart
Every, every day
You're tearin' me apart
Oh what can I say?
You're tearin' me apart

It won't be long, yes
'Til you're alone
When your lover
Oh he hasn't come home
'Cause he's lovin'
He's touchin'
He's squeezin'
Another

He's tearin' you apart
Every, every day
He's tearin' you apart
Oh girl, what can you say?
He's tearin' you apart

'Cause he's lovin'
Touchin'
Another

Now, it's your turn girl, to cry

Na na na na na na
Na na na na na
Na na na na na na
Na na na na na

Open Arms - Journey

Lying beside you.
Here in the dark
Feeling your heart beat
With mine
Softly you whisper
You're so sincere
How could our love
Be so blind

We sailed on together
We drifted apart
And here you are by my side

So now I come to you
With open arms
Nothing to hide
Believe what I say
So here I am
With open arms
Hoping you'll see
What your love means to me
Open arms

Living without you
Living alone
This empty house seems so cold
Wanting to hold you
Wanting you near
How much I wanted you home

But now that you've come back
Turned night into day
I need you to stay
So now I come to you
With open arms
Nothing to hide
Believe what I say
So here I am
With open arms
Hoping you'll see
What your love means to me
Open arms

Girl Can't Help It - Journey

If he could hold her
So close in his arms again
If she could show him
The letter her heart forgot to send

Why
They're living dreams on their own
Ooh they'll never stop running

The girl can't help it she needs more
He hasn't found what he's looking for
They're still standing in the rain
He can't help and she's just that way

And when he calls her
She tells him that she still cares
Under the moonlight
He wonders why she can't be there

Why
Why do they go on alone
When they're missing each other

(Chorus)

Ooh there's a fire in his eyes for you
Don't you know she still cries
Ooh do you know she still cries for you

Fire
Ooh there's a fire in his eyes for you
For you she cries
Ooh do you know she still cries for you

Fire
Ooh there's a fire in his eyes for you
Ooh nothing stands between love and you

 

[MuskratSusie]

Send Her My Love - Journey

It's been so long
Since I've seen her face
You say she's doing fine
I still recall
A sad café
How it hurt so bad
To see her cry
I didn't want to say good-bye

(Chorus)
Send her my love
Memories remain
Send her my love
Roses never fade
Send her my love

The same hotel
The same old room
I'm on the road again
She needed so much more
Than I could give
We knew our love
Could not pretend
Broken hearts can always mend

(Chorus)

Callin' out her name I'm dreaming
Reflections of a face I'm seeing
It's her voice that keeps on haunting me

Send her, send her my love
Roses never fade
Memories remain
Send her, send her my love

Be Good To Yourself - Journey

Runnin' out of self-control
Gettin' close to an overload
Up against a no win situation
Shoulder to shoulder, push and shove
I'm hangin' up my boxin' gloves
I'm ready for a long vacation

Be good to yourself when, nobody else will
Oh be good to yourself
You're walkin' a high wire, caught in a cross fire
Oh be good to yourself
When you can't give no more
They want it all but you gotta say no

I'm turnin' off the noise that makes me crazy
Lookin' back with no regrets
To forgive is to forget
I want a little piece of mind to turn to

Be good to yourself when, nobody else will

 

[MuskratSusie]

When You Love A Woman - Journey

In my life I see where I've been
I said that I'd never fall again
Within myself I was wrong
My searchin' ain't over...over
I know that
When you love a woman
You see your world inside her eyes
When you love a woman
You know she's standin' by your side
A joy that lasts forever
There's a band of gold that shines waiting somewhere...oh yeah
If I can't believe that someone is true
To fall in love is so hard to do
I hope and pray tonight
Somewhere you're thinkin' of me girl
Yes I know...I know that
When you love a woman
You see your world inside her eyes
When you love a woman
You know she's standin' by your side
A joy that lasts forever
There's a band of gold that shines waiting somewhere...oh
It's enough to make you cry
When you see her walkin' by
And you look into her eyes
When you love a woman
You see your world inside her eyes
When you love a woman
Well you know she's standin' by your side
A joy that lasts forever
There's a band of gold that shines
When you love a woman...
When you love, love, love, love
When you love a woman
You see your world inside her eyes

Meant To Live - Switchfoot

Fumbling his confidence
And wondering why the world has passed him by
Hoping that he's bet for more than arguments
And failed attempts to fly
Fly

We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside
Somewhere we live inside
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside

Dreaming about Providence
And whether mice or men have second tries
Maybe we've been living with our eyes half open
Maybe we're bent and broken
Broken

We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside
Somewhere we live inside
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside

We want more than this world's got to offer
We want more than this world's got to offer
We want more than the wars of our fathers
And everything inside screams for second life
Yeah

We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live
(We were meant to live)
We were meant to live

This Is Your Life - Switchfoot

Yesterday is a wrinkle on your forehead
Yesterday is a promise that you've broken
Don't close your eyes, don't close your eyes
This is your life and today is all you've got now
Yeah, and today is all you'll ever have
Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes

This is your life, are you who you want to be
This is your life, are you who you want to be
This is your life, is it everything you dreamed it would be
When the world was younger and you had everything to lose

Yesterday is a kid in the corner
Yesterday is dead and over

This is your life, are you who you want to be
This is your life, are you who you want to be
This is your life, is it everything you dreamed it would be
When the world was younger and you had everything to lose

Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes

This is your life are you who you want to be
This is your life are you who you want to be, yeah

This is your life, are you who you want to be, who you want to be yeah
This is your life, are you who you want to be (who you want to be)
This is your life, is it everything you dreamed it would be
When the world was younger and you had everything to lose

And you had everything to lose

More Than Fine - Switchfoot

When I wake in the morning
I want to blow into pieces
I want more than just OK, more than just OK
When I'm up with the sunrise
I want more than just the blue skies
I want more than just OK, more than just OK

I'm not givin' up, givin' up, not givin' up now

I want more than just a good time
I want more than just OK, more than just OK. OK

More than fine, more than just OK. OK

Ammunition - Switchfoot

Blame it on what you've been through
Blame it on what you're into
Blame it on your religions
Blame it on politicians

We've been blowing up
We're the issue
It's our condition
We've been blowing up
We're the issue
Our detonation
We've been blowing up
We're the issue
We're ammunition
We're ammunition
We're ammunition
We are the fuse and ammunition

I have no generation
Show me my motivation
One world one desperation
One hope and one salvation

We've been blowing up
We're the issue
Our detonation
We've been blowing up
We're the issue

Look what a mess we've made of love
Look what a mess we've made of love
Look what a mess we've made
We've got ourselves to blame
Look what a bomb we've made of love

We've been blowing up
We're the issue
It's our condition
We've been blowing up
We're the issue
Our detonation
We've been blowing up
We're the issue

We're ammunition
We are the fuse and ammunition, ammunition

Dare You To Move - Switchfoot

Welcome to the planet
Welcome to existence
Everyone's here
Everyone's here
Everybody's watching you now
Everybody waits for you now
What happens next?
What happens next?

I dare you to move
I dare you to move
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move
I dare you to move
Like today never happened
Today never happened before

Welcome to the fallout
Welcome to resistance
The tension is here
The tension is here
Between who you are and who you could be
Between how it is and how it should be

Yeah

I dare you to move
I dare you to move
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move

Where can you run to escape from yourself?
Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna go?

I dare you to lift yourself
Lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move

Like today never happened
Today never happened
Today never happened

Redemption - Switchfoot

Four A.M. two hours to go
I'm wearing out a lonely glow
I miss you more than I could know
Here I am, here I am
Won't you get me?

I've got my hands at redemption's side
Whose scars are bigger than, these doubts of mine
I'll fit all of these monstrosities inside
And I'll come alive, come alive

With my fist down at your feet
I was running out of mysteries
Insecure and incomplete
Here I am, here I am
Won't you get me?

I've got my hands at redemption's side
Whose scars are bigger than, these doubts of mine
I'll fit all of these monstrosities inside
And I'll come alive, come alive
Alive, come alive

My fears have worn me out
My fears have worn me out
Yeah, my fears have worn me out
My fears have worn me, worn me out

I've got my hands at redemption's side
Whose scars are bigger than these doubts of mine
I'll fit all of these monstrosities inside
And I'll come alive (got my hands)
At redemption's side (whose scars)
Are bigger than, (bigger than), these doubts of mine
I'll fit all of these monstrosities inside
And come alive, come alive

The Beautiful Letdown - Switchfoot

It was a beautiful letdown
When I crashed and burned
When I found myself alone, unknown and hurt
It was a beautiful letdown
The day I knew
That all the riches this world had to offer me
Would never do

In a world full of bitter pain and bitter doubt
I was trying so hard to fit in, fit in
Until I found out
That I don't belong here (I don't belong)
I don't belong here (I don't belong)
I will carry a cross and a song
Where I don't belong, I don't belong

It was a beautiful letdown
When you found me here
Yeah for once in a rare blue moon
I see everything clear

I'll be a beautiful letdown
That's what I'll forever be
And though it may cost my soul
I'll sing for free
We're still chasing our tails
and the rising sun
And our dark water planet's
still spinning in a race
Where no one wins
And no one's won

See I don't belong here
I don't belong, I don't belong
I will carry a cross and a song
Where I don't belong, I don't belong
I don't belong here, I don't belong here
I don't belong here, I don't belong
I'm gonna set sight and set sail for the kingdom come
Kingdom come
Your kingdom come
Won't you let me down yeah
Let my foolish pride
Forever let me down

Ah, easy living, you're not much like your name
Easy dying, hey you look just about the same
Would you please take me off your list
Easy living, please come on and let me down

We are a beautiful letdown
Painfully uncool
The church of the drop outs, the losers, the sinners, the failures, and the fools
Oh what a beautiful letdown
Are we salt in the wound
Hey, let us sing one true tune, yeah

I don't belong here (I don't belong)
I don't belong here (I don't belong)
I don't belong here (I don't belong)
Feels like I don't belong here (I don't belong)
Yeah I don't belong here (I don't belong)
Cause I don't belong here (I don't belong)
No I don't belong

Would you let me down
Come on and let me down
You always let me down
So glad that I'm let down, yeah

Come on and let me down
Cause I don't belong to you
Please
Won't you let me down?
