Take Your Chances
(Hayward)

The secret that you keep
Is hidden way down deep
I see it in the window of your soul
I hear it in your voice
I feel it in your touch
The love that's in your heart you can control

So take your chances
Let's not pretend
'Cause we may never
Pass this way again

The pleasures of the night
The darkness and the light
It's hard to see the writing on the wall
I hear it in your voice
I feel it in your touch
I see it through the window of your soul

So take your chances
Let's not pretend
'Cause we may never
Pass this way again
 
 

Is It Just A Game
(Hayward)

The world is a lonely place
But I soon found out
That love was the saving grace
I know that once in a thousand years
There will come a time
When joy will replace our fears
And you and I
Will fly away together

Is it just a game
That we're playing now
Were we born to win
Can we lose somehow
Does it all come down
To what we've done before
Is it truth and love
That we're searching for

The world is a lonely place
And the rain that falls
Like tears running down your face
I know that once I can feel
The sun shining down on me
I'll run to your warm embrace
And you and I
Will fly away together

Is it just a game
That we're playing now
Were we born to win
Can we lose somehow
Does it all come down
To what we've done before
Is it peace and love
That we're searching for

The world is a lonely place

Is it just a game
That we're playing now
Were we born to win
Can we lose somehow
Doe it all come down
To what we've done before
Is it peace and love
That we're searching for

The truth may be hard to find
But then love is blind
 
 

One Again
(Hayward)

Why worry, it's alright
I'm with you through the night
I've listened to your dreams
I feel the presence that you've seen
Step out of the darkness
And into the light
The words of the promise
That was made were right
No tears and no troubles
No heartache, no pain
I know that we're going to be one again

Still waters run so deep
The world listens when you speak
One nation of the free
All believing that there'll be
No troubles, no hunger
No heartache, no pain
I know that we're going to be one again
Walk out of the darkness and into the sun
And wake to the morning when we live as one

Step out of the darkness and into the light
The fire that we've kindled is still burning bright
The dawn of tomorrow
Comes back to today
We'll capture that moment
And we'll fly away
 
 

Moving Mountains
(Hayward)

The cool of the evening
The strange unknown of the night
The warmth of the morning
The graceful bird in its flight
Well don't be afraid of the world
Let me take you by the hand
We can move mountains

The gift of tomorrow
The friends we've left far behind
The ones we remember
Their love will live in our minds
Well don't turn around
Don't look back
Let me take you by the hand
We can move mountains

'Cause the sands of time
Are on our side
Put your hand in mine
Let our fortunes ride
We'll sail away
On a wave of love
Let the four winds blow
From heaven above

The wind on the water
Seems to whisper soft in my ear
The call of the ocean
Across the waves I can hear
Don't be afraid of the world
Let me take you by the hand
We can move mountains

'Cause the sands of time
Are on our side
Put your hand in mine
Let our fortunes ride
We'll sail away
On a wave of love
Let the four winds blow
From heaven above
 
 

Silverbird
(Hayward/Wayne)

I can understand
The rain that falls
Waves that crash upon the shore
And I know that everyone
Must have freedom today
And baby in my dreams
I see you walking away

I can understand
The moon and stars
Wonders of this world of ours
And I see the fire of life
Burning brighter each day
And baby in my dreams I see
I see you walking away
So far away
I see you walking away

So fly my silverbird
You know that I
Am waiting for you
And everywhere you go
I'm with you still
I know you will
Return someday
And through the rain and the snow
When there's nowhere left to go
I hope you'll say
Darling now I understand
And I'm home to stay

When I close my eyes
I see you there
In everyone and everywhere
And I feel the power of love
Like an ocean today
And baby in my dreams I see
I see you walking away
So far away
I see you walking away

So fly my silverbird
You know that I
Am waiting for you
And everywhere you go
I'm with you still
I know you will
Return someday
And through the rain and the snow
When there's nowhere left to go
I hope you'll say
Darling now I understand
And I'm home to stay

And through the rain and the snow
When there's nowhere left to go
I hope you'll say
Oh darling now I understand
And I'm home to stay
 
 

Lost And Found
(Hayward)

I was lost
I was wandering in the dark
I was searching for the spark
That would light my life
I was lost
I didn't know where I was from
I was always on the run
Trying to find myself
I was out on my own
Then you brought me back home
I was lost but now I'm found
I'm so glad that you're around
To shelter me

I was lost
I didn't know the words to say
I just couldn't find a way
To express myself
I was blind
I just couldn't read my mind
I didn't know what I would find
When I met myself
I was out on my own
Then you brought me back home
I was lost but now I'm found
I thank God that you're around
To shelter me

And I love the way you tell me
That you love me, yes I do
And I love the way you ask me
If I love you, yes I do

I was lost
There was so much I had to learn
I didn't know which way to turn
'Til I turned to you
I was wrong
I should've seen it all along
I couldn't find where I belong
'Til I belonged to you
I was out on my own
Then you brought me back home
I was lost but now I'm found
I thank God that you're around
To shelter me
 
 

Goodbye
(Hayward)

Over and over
I keep going over
The things that you said
Then walked out of my life
The chain has been broken
The words have been spoken
The door it is open
And waiting for you

Somewhere there's a reason
There's a reason why
Why love has to falter
Why love has to die, and I know
Somewhere there's an answer
But it can't tell me
What I need to hear
What I need to see, and I go

Over and over
I keep going over
The things that you said
Then walked out of my life
Goodbye is all that comes to me
Goodbye is all I can hear
So long, it seems so long to me now

Somewhere in the distance
There's a child who sees
Looking for a reason
Looking to be free, and I know
Somewhere there's an answer
But it can't tell me
What I need to hear
What I need to see, and I go

Over and over
The things that you said
Then walked out of my life
Goodbye is all that comes to me
Goodbye is all I can hear
So long, it seems so long for me
 
 

Who Knows
(Hayward)

Sometimes I find myself searching
As I walk the streets all alone
Searching the faces for someone
Someone to take me back home, back home

Who knows where the future leads us
The waters are wide, the road is long
I pray for a hand to guide us
And welcome us back where we belong

So many miles come between us
And fate seems to keep us apart
Fortune once brought us together
Is there still a place in your heart, in your heart

Some day when my journey is over
I'll come stumbling back to you, my love
I know when the circle is broken
I'll come tumbling back to you, my love

But I long for the day
I can call you and say
I'm a step on the way back to you

Sometimes I find myself searching
As I walk the streets all alone
I'm searching the faces for someone
Someone to take me back home

Who knows what the morning brings us
The moment of truth, the power of love
I know where the future leads me
It's leading me back to you, my love
 
 

The Best Is Yet To Come
(Ward)

Where did we go wrong
We had all the magic to put us on our way
And all the tragedy that we ever wanna see
But you know I'm right
When I say the best is yet to come

Where did we go wrong
Was it so enlightening we couldn't find our way
And all so frightening
We couldn't see which move to make
Well you know I'm right
When I say the best is yet to come

And if you leave me now
Like you say you might
Oh please don't leave me now
'Cause I know if you do
None of this will come true so

Where do we go now
Now your heart is aching
And leading you astray
And me I'm burning up
Trying to get you to stay
'Cause you know I'm right
When I say the best is yet to come
And you know the best is still to come

And if you leave me now
Like you say you might
Oh please don't leave me now
'Cause I know if you do
None of this will come true so

Where did we go wrong
We had all the magic to put us on our way
And all the tragedy that we ever wanna see
But you know I'm right
When I say the best is yet to come
And you know the best is still to come
 
 

The Lights Are Low
(Hayward)

The lights are low
And the music now is slow
And we ask the night
How can this be wrong and feel so right

They say it's true
I'm a fool to trust in you
But then who are they
Who are they to know
I need you so

Did you look in the mirror
And see a stranger standing there
Did you ever drive for miles and miles
And wonder how on earth you got yourself there

I feel your magic as we move and sway
Seems like my self control is slipping away
Let me taste the love
Let me drink the wine
It's yours and mine

Did you ever wake up in the morning
To find that nothing, nothing was the same
And the only thing that really matters
Is the pleasure and the pain

The lights are low
And the music now is slow
And we ask the night
How can this be wrong and feel so right
