Making excuses because I'm just a man
Making excuses for my fallen stand
Wanting more than what is really my share
Taking more than what I can bare
I can not see, I've lost my way
Making excuses day after day
But I see Your hand, and I see Your smile
I feel Your presence at every extra mile
You call my name when I walk away
You search my heart day by day
(chorus)
Every where I go You are there
Every step I take You always show that Your care
What I don't deserve You give me more than my share
Your loving touch shows me You are always there
Wordly values seek my searching mind
Taking Your time and making it fit mine
Living how I want for others that are seeing
Hoping they will like this
I can not see, I've lost my way
Making excuses day after day
But You touch my heart, and open my eyes
You reach in and fix inside
You lift my burdens so I can walk again
You came to this earth to die for my sins
What I thought I had was nothing
What I have in Christ is more than something
I still struggle throughout His days
The rain is falling down
I feel like a dog that's been kicked out into the street
I know that dogs can't drive cars
But that's about the only difference between us now
But wait, there's a rainbow across the freeway
And I think I feel the morning sun
Another song is number one
Golden days have just begun
Change every dog is gonna have his day
Change every loser's gonna have his way
Change I don't care what other people say
You can argue all day long about whether love really exists or not
It's a complete waste of time
Like arguing about whether Santa Claus really exists or not
I've got better things to do with my time
I've got places that I've got to be
And people that I've to see
Mountains that I have to ski
Golden days ahead of me
Change every dog is gonna have his day
Change every loser's gonna have his way
Change I don't care what other people say
Change just ignore them and they'll go away
Paradise was here, paradise is gone
Greece and Rome were here, Greece and Rome are gone
The Wild West was here, the Wild West is gone
Vaudeville was here, Vaudeville is gone
Change every dog is gonna have his day
Change every loser's gonna have his way
Change I don't care what other people say
You know I've been thinking
We'll get back together again someday
Your hair will be some weird color by then
Maybe we'll just start off again as friends, I wonder when
Change every dog is gonna have his day
Change every loser's gonna have his way
Change I don't care what other people say
Change just ignore them and they'll go away
Change every dog is gonna have his day
Change every loser's gonna have his way
Change I don't care what other people say
My sin is greater than any sea
I grab everything I can for me
My life is worth nothing on my own
I reap the seeds I have sown
I give excuses day after day
Its a lighted path but somehow I find a way to stray
(chorus)
I'm the one that nailed your feet and wrists
I placed the thorns and swung my fist
How can you love someone like me
Why did you shed your blood and set me free
I do the things I do to please me
Does the pain come back from the tree?
My reward should be death
But you set me apart from the rest, even though...
You changed my life and turned me all around
I was forever lost then you made me found
My rewards should only equal death
But you set me apart from all the rest
(chorus)
I'm the one that nailed your feet and wrists
You forgave me and unclenched my fist
You shed your blood on that tree
How can I explain something not of this world
A man hung between two thieves
Blood dripping from His hands and brow
Pulling with His nailed wrists for each breath
People spit on Him and mocked His name
This was a man that came to die for me
(chorus)
You can believe it or not
You can say that it's a myth
You can trust and obey or
You can say He doesn't exist
But I know He came and died and shed His blood on a tree
And three days later He arose and set me free
Three crosses on a hill, dark clouds in the sky
Tear falls to the ground from His mother's eye
Hanging in innocence as His Father watched Him die
Three days later the stone was rolled away
Breath came to His words as He arose alive
The sinner's debt did He pay with His death
After His truth was told it wasn't the same
What is the time, oh I've fallen again
How can' You love me with my life of sin
My eyes want everything that I see
They pull me down when I think I'm free
Each day I try to focus on You
But it always seems something gets in my view
(chorus)
I'm being torn between two worlds
Once that my eyes see
And one that my heart feels
I'm being torn between two worlds
One I know that's right
And one I know that's wrong
How is it that you can expain your love
Each time I fall, Your hand's reaching from above
My heart calls out to You ever hour
But I always seem to fall like rain in a shower
This struggle within keeps pulling me down
It was a long time ago
There was a man I've come to know
He was born from God's own hand
To die for all those who stand
His love is yet unfailing
His grace ever prevailing
He promises eternity
All you have to do is believe
(chorus)
How could it be that the Lord could set His people free
2000 years ago
Broken promises is all you see
Never felt the presence of He
What you live is the world around
Always lost and never found
The heart of yours that's grown cold
He'll turn around and make it bold
And what you think He'd never do
Can now be done and be renewed
There is no way to heaven
Except through the father above
There is no way to the father
Never letting go of all the things I made
To have and to hold so everthings o.k.
I cherish what I bought, yet I cherish what I sold
Think someday it would great to have a mansion when I'm old
(chorus)
So what if I ever rode a horse
So what if I ever drove a porsche
So what if my swimming pool was full of
So what pretty girls that want my number
Everyday I want to say o.k.
Running round in circles won't get lost along the way
So I guess it's not that easy cause somehow I ran astray
Need some money, need it fast, So I sold my cat for cash
So I live and so I learn
That I do not want to burn
Well if ya think this song is only seeming like it has no freakin meaning
It was an ugly thing to look into my soul
I thought You'd taken everything but You just filled the hole
Give me the thorn, drive it in deep
I'll take the pain cause love ain't cheap
(chorus)
My heart bowed in shame
As I called Your name
You shall always be the one for me
Can't explain the things You've done for me
Keeping me from the fire, Oh precious memories
Farther along I go, take my hand precious Lord
Can I have just a few seconds of your time
I see you've been searching and you can't seem to find
He came to this earth to die for me
He says if I believe I will be free
This gift He has given me He's given you
Just as He loves me He also loves you
(chorus)
I don't want to miss you
We haven't very long
I don't want to miss you
To whom do you belong?
You say you're not ready everything is fine
He's promised us life but He's never promised us time
What will it take to make you see
That just as He does, I want you there with me
I don't want you to be just a memory
I pray every night down on my knees
She sits in a room with fear
Painting a wall with iron tears
Her looks change to fit her own
Leaving her fading friends for love
Broken window on her wall
Sun of luminous brings her fall
Memories fill the broken pains
Breathing out her fall gains
(chorus)
You want it, You need it
God's got it, Let it go
Filter thoughts color the white
Clinching fists crash the light
Words hang like feeble threads
A heart that pierced and left for dead
Shutting eyes and turning away
Leaves her here for another day
If your without blame throw your stone
Oh, Friend, You've been on my mind lately
I've seen how you've been getting by
I can tell there's something different
You can see the hurt deep in your eyes
And when your world comes crashing down
I'll be the freind to help you turn around
(chorus)
I'm gonna be there
When the storms come crashing in
I'm gonna be there til the very end
I'm gonna be there
When the darkness calls your name
I remain the same
There are things to be said
But not this time
I just want to see you
See you from the inside, from the inside
And when your world comes crashing down
I'll be the friend to help you turn around
I wish that you were here right now
My arms would be around you
There's nothing you can't do
Together we'll make it through
And when your world comes crashing down
He picks a yellow flower on a Sunday afternoon
The love he had for her only he and God knew
The smile she gave him said all the unspoken words
With a glance in her eyes he saw a love so pure
(chorus)
Just as a boy can love a girl
And just as flowers can brighten your world
There's someone who died to show His love
The love you seek comes from above
He picks a white flower on a Friday afternoon
He never thought it would come so soon
She looks at him as she walks down the aisle
With every step she says "I love you" with her smile
He picks a yellow flower on a Sunday afternoon
And placed it in her hands just like he used to do
Time has changed the way their outside eyes see
But the love they feel inside is all they'll ever need
Just as a boy and girl can fall in love
Baby, I had girls before
But no-one ever hurt me more
Than you, woman, can't you see?
I've gotta have you back again
'Cause I just wanna be your man
Hey, hey, you belong to me, yeah
Baby, don't you get me wrong
'Cause I regret the things I've done
To you, I never lie again
How can I just make you know?
You never really meant to go
Mmm, mmm, I hope you understand
Baby, when I think of you sometimes
I hope you will come back again sometime
I just wanna be with you
Girl, I miss your love
Took some time to realize it's you I'm dreaming of
Now, what shall I say
Hey, hey
Baby, when I think of you sometimes
I hope you will come back again sometime
I just wanna be with you
Girl, I miss your love
Took some time to realize it's you I'm dreaming of
Lalalalalalala (Lalalala)
Lalalalalalala (Hey, hey)
Hey, hey
Sometimes
Mmm, sometimes
Well, it seems we're together now
But I got my doubts somehow
Oh, baby, when I read your mind
Sometimes I don't really know
Will I stay or will I go, go, go?
This time my love for you is done
Oooh, yeah
Baby, when I think of you sometimes
I hope you will come back again sometime
I just wanna be with you
Girl, I miss your love
Took some time to realize it's you I'm dreaming of
I'm dreaming of!
I just wanna be with you
Girl, I miss your love
Took some time to realize it's you I'm dreaming of
Lalalalalalala (Don't you know I miss you)
Lalalalalalala (Sometimes it breaks my heart)
Lalalalalalala (I just can't live without you)
Lalalala

Hip hap hop - can you tell me -
What the future has in store for you and me?
Hip hap hop - can you tell me -
Can I love you even more (than I did before)

For you so many girls stand up in line.
But now my company seems alright -
Somehow I feel you're gonna stay forever
forever and ever

There's a lot of talkin' goin' round
That I'm no good at all.
But can you find one reason baby
Just to let me fall.
I will always love you
No matter what they say
Let the people do their talkin' -
We're gonna find our way.
Keep your had up to the sky -
You'll be flyin' high
on a rainbow
in the air
There's no way that you can fly
But you always gotta try
to keep on goin'
anywhere.
When you're feelin' lonely
feelin' blue -
You don't know what to do
Just remember one thing baby
yeah
Someome cares for you.
Just keep your head together
See the bright sides of life.
Thru' rain and stormy weather
We surely will survive.
Keep your head up to the sky
What the people say
it hasn't got a meaning.
We will find a way
well maybe it won't work the first time.
Look up to the sky
and you will find a rainbow.
Better look next time
I hope you'll find a way to go on -
Soon
soon.
I will always love you
Keep your head up to the sky
Again you tried to hold on
again I asked you to leave
I was a fool
now I don't wanna lose you
but it seems too late, there's
no way to turn.
You stopped the rain from falling
you gave the sunlight a chance
you didn't see
how much your love meant to me
now we have grown apart
and it's too late to learn
Goodbye, goodbye
I want you to stay
goodbye, goodbye
but I have to go away
we've been in love
but there's no way to turn
Here we are
tryin' to get ourselves
together
hide and seek won't pay
can't you see
there ain't no use in tryin' to
hold on
we must part, we must say
goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
I want you to stay
goodbye, goodbye
but I have to go away
we've been in love

Is it love that we share
