Songbook 1
What colour is the wind, daddy
Is it yellow, red or blue
When he's playing with my hair, daddy
Does he do the same to you
When he's dying does his colour fade
Is a gentle breeze a lighter shade
Just like his friend the sea
The wind feels blue to me
-------
When the blackbird starts to sing, daddy
Do the flowers hear him too
When he's pouring out his heart, daddy
Tell me what do roses do
Do they cast their scent upon the air
And is fragrance just a rose in prayer
Giving thanks to God above
For the blackbird's song of love
-------
CHORUS:
Blow wind blow
Wild and free
My daddy says
You're a lot like me
-------
I know each colour
Its shape and size
I've seen them all
With my daddy's eyes
-------
I know that grass is green, daddy
I've touched it with my toes
And snow is purest white, daddy
I've felt it with my nose
But my favourite colour has to be
The colour of your love for me
And daddy I've been told
That love is always gold
-------
REPEAT CHORUS:
-------
My daddy says
You're a lot like me
-------
What colour is the wind
Everybody needs a little help sometime
No-one stands alone
Makes no difference if you're just a child like me
Or a king upon a throne
For there are no exceptions
We all stand in the line
Everybody needs a friend
Let me tell you of mine
-------
CHORUS:
He's my forever friend
My leave me never friend
From darkest night
To rainbow's end
He's my forever friend
-------
Even when I turn away He cares for me
His love no-one can shake
Even as I walk away He's by my side
With every breath I take
And sometimes I forget Him
My halo fails to shine
Sometimes I'm not his friend
But He is always mine
-------
REPEAT CHORUS:
-------
If you still don't know the one I'm talking of
I think it's time you knew
Long ago and far away upon a cross
My friend died for you
So if you'd like to meet Him
And don't know what to do
Ask my friend into your heart
And He'll be your friend too
-------
REPEAT CHORUS:
-------
He's my forever friend
You're forever telling me I'm weak
When I'm criticised I never speak
-------
I prefer to turn the other cheek
But I will love you all my life
-------
I can never do things right byyou
I'm the kind of man who muddles through
You can find mistakes in all I do
But I will love you all my life
-------
Something foolish happens and you see
In the middle of it all there's me
Seems I cause you so much misery
But I will love you all my life
-------
CHORUS:
All my life, all I own
Everything is yours alone
Every day, my whole life through
I will spend loving you
-------
Everybody says for you I'm wrong
You'll get nowhere fast with me along
They keep telling me I don't belong
But I will love you all my life
-------
REPEAT CHORUS:
-------
I will love you all my life
Life is leading us to different places
When
you're gone I don't know what I'll do
I will learn to smile at other faces
But part of me will always be in love with you
-------
Who knows where another year will find me
Gone will be the lovely thing we knew
But each starry night will still remind
me
And part of me will always be in love with you
-------
CHORUS:
Part of me will always be wherever you are
Wanting you so
although we're apart
Part of me will never let your memory get very far
Away from me
You'll always be in my heart
-------
Other lips may learn to kiss me sweetly
And darling when I find somebody new
I will make believe I'm hers completely
But
part of me will always be in love with you
-------
REPEAT CHORUS:
-------
And part of me will always be in love with you
If people dressed in colours
According
to their deeds
Many leading men would dress in black
And lots of unsung heroes
Who never made a name
Would be walking
round with gold upon their back
-------
CHORUS:
Heaven knows, you're a rose
And the love inside your heart
Just grows and
grows
No-one sees I suppose
That it's something that only me
And heaven knows
-------
If people were like flowers
Imagine
what you'd see
Thorns in highest places
Where the roses ought to be
And down along the hedgerows
Among the grasses
tall
You would find the sweetest roses
Of them all
-------
REPEAT CHORUS:
-------
If people were like music
Some hearts
would never sing
Think of all the happiness
A song like yours could bring
You fill the life I'm living
With love and
harmony
And you're the sweetest song
I'll ever see
-------
REPEAT CHORUS TWICE:
-------
That it's something only me
And
heaven knows
When life's a picture all
black and white
With so much there that isn't right
A gentle smile and you begin
To change the scene and colour in
And
leaden weights turn into wings
How do you do those things
-------
So many voices but nothing said
It's like a drumbeat in my
head
Your eyes are saying without words
The sweetest things I've ever heard
Instead of drums I hear strings
How do you do
those things
-------
How do you take my heart and turn it over
Where do you get the power you possess
Making my concrete
world a field of clover
Turning my losing run into success
-------
So much confusion, so many tears
The sound of sadness in
my ears
Just when I think I cannot cope
You lift my heart and give me hope
From troubled waters, healing springs
How do
you do those things
He lay his deepest feelings down
before her
He showed her all the corners of his heart
He gave her all the dreams his life had woven
And one by one he
watched them fall apart
He wrapped her in his vision of perfection
The burden proved too much for her to take
She couldn't
wear the halo that he gave her
She couldn't go on hiding each mistake
-------
CHORUS:
Now the spell is badly broken
There
are no angels after all
Theres only people, lonely people
And a million ways to fall
-------
She left him with a note of measured
sorrow
She thought she would be cruel to be kind
But he has problems trying to forget her
Her memory walks the shadow of
his mind
-------
REPEAT CHORUS:
-------
A million promises to break
A million liberties to take
A million feelings to fake
And a
million ways to fall
REPEAT CHORUS TWICE:
Moon on canvas sail
Such a
beautiful sight
Lost on a stardust trail
On a mystical night
Wash of a million waves
Calling to me
Deep in my soul I can
hear
The song of the ocean
-------
Far from the noise of men
Free from its hold
We took our dreams and ran
We were
scattered like gold
Softer than silken feet
Through a night like a prayer
Taking our hearts to meet
The song of the
ocean
-------
Golden moon
Silent friend
Rides alone
Just like me he can see
The beauty in your song
-------
Strung like a
million pearl
Stars in the sky
Dance as the seabird call
Their lonely lullaby
Heaven is there to touch
If your heart is clear
I've
come to love so much
The song of the ocean
-------
Secrets as old as time
Whisper to me
Sometimes a soul can feel
What the
mind cannot see
Heaven is there to touch
If your heart is clear
I've come to love so much
The song of the ocean
The song of
the ocean
No time at all
That's all it took
For me to
find an answer in your loving look
I never thought I'd ever fall
But then you came along
And took no time at all
-------
The
wasted time
The empty years
The lonely nights I tried to drink away my fears
Life wasn't life, as I recall
Then you changed
everything
And took no time at all
-------
CHORUS:
Time waits for no man
And I could see
That time was not about
To change
its ways for me
Time turned me bitter
Time turned me cold
You put the sweetness back
And turned my grey to gold
-------
REPEAT CHORUS:
No time at all
That's all it took
For me to find an answer in your loving look
I never thought I'd ever
fall
But then you came along
And took no time at all
Then you changed everything
And took no time at all
I love the sound of a steam
train
Rushing through the night
And a hoot of an owl
And a puppy dog's growl
Thrills me with delight
I love the crunch of the
crisp
And the wind when it whispers
Down our avenue
-------
Oh me oh my I love the things that my ears can do
Oh me oh my
I love the things that my ears can do
-------
I love the sound of a kettle singing
As it warms through the garden hand
And I
bubble inside when trombones glide
And the grand pianos grand
I Love the gurgle and glug when I pull out the plug
And the
water rushes through, oooh
-------
Oh me oh my I love the things that my ears can do
Oh me oh my I love the things that my
ears can do
-------
There is treasure in the air if you listen
I you don't you'll never know
What you are missing
-------
I love the
sound of laughter
That has its roots in love
And the purest gold is the story told
By the blackbird and the dove
The oceans
sigh is a lullaby
That is old and ever new
-------
Oh me oh my I love the things that my ears can do
Oh me oh my I love the
things that my ears can do
-------
There is treasure in the air if you listen
If you don't you'll never know
What you are
missing
-------
I love the sound of a doorbell
Doing what a doorbell does
And old bumblebee doesn't bother me
With his buzz
buzz buzz
I love the pop of a champagne top
And the click of a well-heeled shoe, oooh
-------
Oh me oh my I love the things
that my ears can do
Oh me oh my I love the things that my ears can do
She wears her heart upon her
sleeve
And doesn't think the world can see
Behind a smile she hopes can seize
Her broken box of memories
-------
CHORUS:
White lies in windows
Easy to see through
Look with your heart
Look with your eyes
You'll see the world
Or a
heart that's been broken
Looking through windows
And white lies
-------
He rakes the ashes of yesterday
For something he
can wear with pride
He says he could have had it all
If only he had tried
-------
REPEAT CHORUS:
-------
And we all hide
sometimes
Behind the life we weave
It's a fool's game
It's ourselves we deceive
-------
She says she's glad she never
married
No one to hurt
No one to please
Children would only have tied her down
Stolen her fantasy
-------
REPEAT
CHORUS:
-------
Looking through windows and white lies
Candlelight, snow white, winter as clear
as crystal
Stands like a dream that's frozen forever in time
Love, fire warms me as the sun retires for another day
Wrap me up
in a dream of you and throw me away
-------
Dog-eyed eventide's mellow mantle is fallen
And on the silence, the nightingale
sails his song
Stars blink from a sky of Indian ink while I kneel and pray
Wrap me up in a dream of you and throw me
away
-------
I'll sit and listen as the clock ticks by
Holding you inside my mind
I can't believe that time's forgotten how to
fly
Since you left my world behind
-------
Silver-haired mother stares into the hills of her memory
Old smile softened by years of
livin' in love
She knows where the river of my longing flows when she hears me say
Wrap me up in a dream of you and throw
me away
-------
She knows where the river of my longing flows when she hears me say
Wrap me up in a dream of you and
throw me away
Wrap me up in a dream of you and throw me away
Throw me away
Throw me away
Throw me away
Songbook 2
Down the years there'll be days
when we must be apart
So I bought this small watch for to measure the time
The inscription it carries comes straight from my
heart
To remind you you'll always be mine
-------
CHORUS:
Love you every second
It's simple but so true
Love you every
second
Every second I live I love you
-------
When you feel you're out fighting this world on your own
Watch those hands
turning round and remember that phrase
While there's breath in this body you won't be alone
So believe that old watch when
it says
-------
REPEAT CHORUS:
-------
Every moment is precious so don't waste a one
For you'll never recover a moment
that's gone
-------
Love can sometimes lost in an ocean of time
But my heart will not change and I want you to know
You
possess every drop God allows to be mine
I decided a long time ago, to...
-------
REPEAT CHORUS:
-------
Every moment of
time I love you
There never was anyone quite like me
I'm the
only me that you'll ever see
From the top of my head to the tip of my toe
Oh oh oh I'm special you know
-------
There never
was anyone like me or you
Being ourselves is the best we can do
We're priceless and precious for God tells me so
Oh oh oh
we're special you know
-------
CHORUS:
We're quite unique
A walking work of art
And strong or weak
We all have our
own
Special place in God's Heart
-------
We're different each one from the other it's true
God never repeats himself, never
makes two
Be happy with who you are, God made you so
Oh oh oh you're special you know
-------
REPEAT CHORUS:
-------
We're different each one from the other it's true
God never repeats himself, never makes two
We're priceless and precious
for God tells me so
Oh oh oh we're special you know
-------
Oh oh oh we're special you know
All I own
Everything I do
I would Surrender
For
one more tender night
With You
-------
All that's mine
All that I possess
Struggled and paid for
I'd gladly trade
For your
caress
-------
I live and breathe your memory every day
I'm so afraid in time you'll slip away
-------
Here inside
Forever you
remain
I'd give up each pleasure
And all that I treasure
If I could only have you back again
-------
I've dreams of ways that
could erase
The wrong I've done
But everything I've tried has gone astray
-------
Every night
Somewhere in my sleep
My
dreams come true
My rendezvous
With you I keep
-------
I wish that I could change the way you feel
And somehow bring an
end to my ordeal
-------
My heart sings
His old refrain
I could recapture
The joy and the rapture
If I could have you back
again
I am red like the blood
Of the saviour who
stood
In my place and paid the price
For my way to paradise
Like the blood that he shed
I am red
------
I am green like the
land
That held out a welcome hand
Listen to my lonely song
Let me feel that I belong
Like that land pure and green
I am
green
-------
CHORUS:
These are my colours
That show where my allegiance lies
These are the colours
On the flag that my
heart flies
-------
I am blue like your eyes
That can lift and sympathise
Always lookin' out for me
So much love in them I
see
Like your eyes clear and blue
I am blue
-------
I am gold like the smile
On the curly-headed child
Full of innocence and
trust
Makes my worries turn to dust
Like this child that I hold
I am gold
-------
REPEAT CHORUS TWICE:
-------
I am red like the
blood
Of the saviour who stood
In my place and paid the price
For my way to paradise
Like the blood that he shed
I am red
I
am red
I am red
Long ago my father placed his hand upon
my head
As he lay each finger down he smiled at me and said
Someday son when you're a man you will understand
You'll
only count your true friends on the fingers of one hand
-------
CHORUS:
Five fingers you can count upon
Five fingers and you
are one
-------
If you dreams should crumble inside your wounded heart
Reflect upon the speed at which fair-weather friends
depart
Then warm yourself upon the memories of the chosen few
The best who wanted nothing but the very best for
you
-------
REPEAT CHORUS:
-------
My father said the golden patches of your life will bring
Butterflies who'll use you for a
while to warm their wings
Then fly away when rainclouds start to gather in your sky
And leave behind the faithful who will love
you till they die
-------
REPEAT CHORUS:
-------
And you are one
See the down and out in his ragged
clothes
How he got that way only heaven knows
Sell his self respect for a beer
Anything to make his lonliness disappear
See
the haunted face and the hollow eyes
She won't live too long till the day she dies
Got a needle that won't be denied
Nobody
knows how many times she's tried
-------
CHORUS:
She's somebody's daughter
He's some mother's son
Imagine they
belong to you
You must know how it feels
When you need someone
He's some mother's son
-------
See the grey old man
with the broken mind
Talking to himself he's been left behind
By your world that he doesn't know
He's lost in the backstreets
of long ago
See the little girl on your TV screen
Does she has to starve, is the world so mean
She should be too young to
despair
But she can't see a single ray of hope anywhere
-------
REPEAT CHORUS:
-------
He's some mother's son
He's some
mother's son
If only I had wings
I'd let the air
release my mind
And leave my worries far behind
And let the silent oceans of the skies
Wash every grain of sorrow from my
eyes
-------
If only I had wings
I'd fly beyond the rainbow's dawn
In search of heaven's stardust shores
Where long forgotten
dream will all come true
Beyond the mellow ocean's tender blue
-------
CHORUS
I'm flying
Up where the eagle reigns
I'm
flying
Leaving behind my chains
If only I had wings
Upon the breeze I'd lay my soul
And let God's hand take full control
And
sing my heart's surrender To His love
Forever to the moon and stars above
-------
REPEAT CHORUS:
-------
And let the silent
oceans of the skies
Wash every grain of sorrow from my eyes
If only I had wings
If only I had wings
Last night I dreamed I was in
heaven but you weren't there
And I was crying like a baby looking for you everywhere
And I saw waterfalls of light
Stars that
didn't need a night
Somehow heaven wasn't right without you
-------
CHORUS:
Without you my heart could never be
free
Without you heaven couldn't be heaven to me
-------
Everyone I met was smiling all sorrow gone
Full of loneliness inside
me I wandered on
And although death had been destroyed
Forever cast into the void
Heaven couldn't be enjoyed without
you
-------
REPEAT CHORUS:
-------
Then an angel stood before me and to my shame
I begged and pleaded her to send me
from whence I came
Then all my sorrow flew away
When I heard the angel say
If you left how could I stay without you
Some people say to go along
way
Forget about others think of number one
Take what you can from your fellow man
It doesn't matter who you walk
upon
-------
What happened to love your neighbour as yourself
Where it's needed give a little help
What happened to
love
-------
Some would sell their sold to hell
For all the things that money can buy
Power and fame is the name of their
game
But you can't take it with you when you die
-------
What happened to blessed are the humble and the meek
Blessed are
the poor who turn the other cheek
What happened to love
-------
I prefer to live life by that old black book
It's guided me along
life's way of every hour of every day
Down every road I took
-------
This world today has gone astray
So many bound by
selfishness and pride
Folk cherish and chase what's worthless and base
And wonder why they're never satisfied
-------
Tell
me what happened to blessed are the pure
Isn't its beauty valued any more
What happened to love
What happened to
love
What happened to love
If I ever lose my memory
So I
don't even know my name
I'd still recognise
The loving inside your eyes
I'd watch them glow
And my heart would
know
-------
If my should ever fail me
If blindness ever struck me down
With a single finger's touch
From the hands I love so
much
The love would flow
And my heart would know
-------
CHORUS:
My heart would know if all else fails
The heart moves
on a different plane
Fear is a mountain love has scaled
Time and time again
-------
If you lips should ever lie dear
If you should
set out to deceive
There's no way you could hide
What was going on inside
The lies would show
And my heart would
know
-------
REPEAT CHORUS:
-------
If you ever lose your memory
So you don't even know your name
You'd still
recognise
The love inside my eyes
The love would show
And your heart would know
And my heart would know
I've been down and I've been broke
I
have worn the devil's yoke
I have cheated and I've lied it's sad to say
But I've come to realise
That the spirit slowly dies
With
each little wrong you do along life's way
-------
Now I'm free for the Lord delivered me
I've escaped the chains that weighed
me down
So long, so long
Now my heart is warm and light
And the road ahead is bright
All my days I'll sing my saviour's
song
-------
CHORUS:
-------
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
I will sing my saviour's song
-------
All the lies I swallowed up
From the
devil's bitter cup
Turned the hope inside my heart to misery, misery
From the depths of my despair
Came an answer to my
prayer
And the hands of love reached out and rescued me
-------
Now I'm free, really free
I've escaped the chains that
weighed me down
So long, so long
Now my heart is warm and light
And the road ahead is bright
All my days I'll sing my
saviour's song
-------
REPEAT CHORUS TWICE:
Watch where you're going
Travel with
care
Stay out of danger
Go where you know
Wrap yourself well when there's a chill in the air
And God be with you wherever
you go
'Cos you're dear to be
More than you'll ever know
You're so dear to me
And I love you so
-------
CHORUS:
Each
night I'll say a little prayer
That God will guard and guide you
And walk beside you everywhere
And scatter dreams inside
you
-------
Beware of those who are empty and loud
And choose your friends by the size of their heart
Think for yourself never
run with the crowd
Always remember although we're apart
That you're dear to me
More than you'll ever know
You're so
dear to me
And I love you so
-------
REPEAT CHORUS:
-------
Don't work too hard, take some time to unwind
And don't let
worry dictate how you feel
Don't spoil tomorrow by looking behind
I only hope that these words will reveal
That you're dear
to me
More than you'll ever know
You're so dear to me
And I love you so
-------
'Cos you're dear to be
More than you'll ever
know
You're so dear to me
And I love you so
Walking down the street by the
house we knew
Weeds command the garden where our roses grew
Children I don't know climb our apple tree
And scare the
bark that bears the mark
Of your sweet love for me
-------
No-one sees an old man cry
As he starts to say goodbye
Won't
someone up there tell them please
They're walking on my memories
-------
CHORUS:
Sweet memories
The afterglow
Of
lovely long ago
-------
The window where she stood and waved to me each day
Now frames another while I roll the years
away
See things as they were our loving used to be
I'm glad those smiling eyes can't see
What time has done to me
-------
No-one sees san old man's tears
And when his heart breaks no-one hears
Won't someone up there tell them please
They're
walking on my memories
-------
REPEAT CHORUS × 3:
I can't believe
How selfish I've
been
Looking for something for me
In all that I've seen
Now I'm so sorry for
The life that I led before
Now that life is
gone
And the new man walks on
-------
CHORUS:
You've opened my eyes Lord
You've opened my heart Lord
You've
helped me to see
It's not about me
And the things that I do
It's about loving you
-------
For so many years
I lived like a
ghost
Thinking that happiness
Lived with those who have most
Pulling on empty strings
Putting my trust in things
That
can't satisfy
They just wither and die
-------
REPEAT CHORUS:
-------
Now I'm alive
Like I never was
I've got a reason to
live
And it's all because
I've found the fountain of
Peace and eternal love
I was lost now I'm found
Now I'm heaven-
bound
-------
REPEAT CHORUS:
-------
And dear Lord I do
