I Know You're Out There Somewhere
Justin Hayward

I know you're out there somewhere Somewhere, somewhere I know I'll find you somehow Somehow, somehow And somehow I'll return again to you The mist is lifting slowly I can see the way ahead And I've left behind the empty streets That once inspired my life And the strength of the emotion Is like thunder in the air 'Cause the promise that we made each other Haunts me to the end I know you're out there somewhere Somewhere, somewhere I know you're out there somewhere Somewhere you can hear my voice I know I'll find you somehow Somehow, somehow I know I'll find you somehow And somehow I'll return again to you The secret of your beauty And the mystery of your soul I've been searching for in everyone I meet And the times I've been mistaken It's impossible to say And the grass is growing Underneath our feet I know you're out there somewhere Somewhere, somewhere I know you're out there somewhere Somewhere you can hear my voice I know I'll find you somehow Somehow, somehow I know I'll find you somehow And somehow I'll return again to you You see, I know you're out there somewhere Oh yes, I know you're out there somewhere You see, I know I'll find you somehow Oh yes, I know I'll find you somehow The words that I remember From my childhood still are true That there's none so blind As those who will not see And to those who lack the courage And say it's dangerous to try Well they just don't know That love eternal will not be denied I know you're out there somewhere Somewhere, somewhere I know you're out there somewhere Somewhere you can hear my voice I know I'll find you somehow Somehow, somehow I know I'll find you somehow And somehow I'll return again to you Yes I know it's going to happen I can feel you getting near And soon we'll be returning To the fountain of our youth And if you wake up wondering In the darkness I'll be there My arms will close around you And protect you with the truth I know you're out there somewhere Somewhere, somewhere I know you're out there somewhere Somewhere you can hear my voice I know I'll find you somehow Somehow, somehow I know I'll find you somehow And somehow I'll return again to you

Want To Be With You
Justin Hayward and John Lodge

When I think of all the things That we've been through And all the things we've yet to do I, I start to realise Without you by my side The world is such a lonely place Want to be with you I remember all the heartaches we have known The angry nights when we were lonely The jealousy and pain Can we remain the same? The world will have to hold its breath Want to be with you I don't need a reason I don't need to understand I just want to be Want to be with you Only want your love Only want you by my side Only want to be Want to be with you And when I look back down that road I see the turnings that we both made The choice we had to make The promises we break Are nothing more than memories Want to be with you Ahhh, ahhh, ahhh, ahhh, ahhh The jealousy and pain Can we remain the same? The world will have to hold its breath Want to be with you I don't need a reason I don't need to understand I just want to be Want to be with you Only want your love Only want you by my side Only want to be Want to be with you

River Of Endless Love
Justin Hayward and John Lodge

I'm looking for a better world Where there's no more hurt Where there's only hope For the eagle and the dove I, I can see your face Nothing can take your place If we sail away on a river of endless love Ahhh, the river of endless love... I'm living in the hands of time On the wings of love On the edge of night Where there's darkness everywhere I, I won't be denied I'm never going to leave your side I will always be On the river of endless love Ahhh, the river of endless love... In the silence just before the dawn The shadows lose their form We rise to greet the morning In the calm that comes before the storm A troubled and a restless heart is born Ahhh, the river of endless love... I'm tearing down the walls of hate Gonna start again Gonna turn it round Gonna build it with a prayer I can always dream And nothing is what it seems If you lose your way You can always find us there Ahhh, the river of endless love In the silence just before the dawn The shadows lose their form We rise to greet the morning In the calm that comes before the storm A troubled and a restless heart is born Ahhh, the river of endless love Ahhh, the river of endless love Ahhh, the river of endless love....

No More Lies
Justin Hayward

I need you like you need me Truly and completely Never be apart I think that you should tell me Come right out and tell me Just what's in your heart And if you think that it's all right Let's make a deal and work it out We'll walk into the sunset, you and I With no more alibis When we tell each other No more lies No more lies, no more lies No more lies... Well, truth is my addiction Stranger still than fiction Wider than the sky And songs that have such feeling Words that have such meaning Dreams that never die And if you think it sounds o.k. Let's turn around and start again We'll walk beside the ocean hand in hand With no more alibis When we tell each other No more lies No more lies, no more lies I sometimes think that maybe You're just a little girl You know I love you, baby I've got to tell the world So that's the final story The truth in all its glory See how much I care You know you drive me crazy Thrill me and amaze me Drive me to despair And if you think that now feels right Let's close the door and dim the lights We'll greet the dawn together, side by side Just look into my eyes 'Cause you know I'll tell you No more lies No more lies, no more lies No more lies, no more lies No more lies, no more lies No more lies

Here Comes The Weekend
John Lodge

Somewhere in the night There's a heart that beats so fast I can feel the heat Of the fire in your eyes Burning like a naked flame Waiting for the ice to break Counting down the days Waiting for the weekend Lonely is the night When all are sleeping Silence is a friend you walk with With no one else to talk to But on a Friday night It's all right, it's all right You can be who you want to be Take off for the weekend If you can dance you can dance with me 'Cause it's Friday night It's all right, it's all right Nothing's gonna stop me now I'm all wired up and I'm ready to go I'm on my way Let's get on with the show Here comes the weekend Here comes the weekend Somewhere in the night There's a heart that beats so fast I can hear your voice Talk to me tonight Taking on a different face Every time I hear your name Counting down the days Waiting for the weekend Lonely is the night When all are sleeping Silence is a friend you walk with With no one else to talk to But on a Friday night It's all right, it's all right You can be who you want to be Take off for the weekend If you dance, you can dance with me 'Cause it's a Friday night It's all right, it's all right And nothing's gonna stop me now I'm all wired up and I'm on my way It's the weekend And it's starting today Here comes the weekend Here comes the weekend Here comes the weekend

Vintage Wine
Justin Hayward

I remember the taste of the vintage wine From '63 through to '69 And I'm proud of the things we believed in then If I had the chance I'd go around again Oh, I tell you We were young and free Oh, I'll tell you 'Cause I was there you see Ohhh, ohhhh, oohhhh Ohhh, ohhhh, oohhhh And I look to the future with open arms And the songs that flow from my old guitar And I want to be there when the music plays And the lights go up on the empty stage Oh, I tell you Music set me free Oh, I tell you It sounds so good to me Ohhh, ohhhh, oohhhh Ohhh, ohhhh, oohhhh And if you're into wandering Underneath the stars We'll take the trip together Through this magic world of ours And if you're still uncertain Just what we can be Well, baby, make your mind up Get you things and follow me 'Cause if you're into romance, baby Love will find a way And if you're into dreaming Dream with me I remember the sound of the children's prayer The laughing eyes and the golden hair And as hard as I try Not a day goes by That I don't think of them I, I tell you We can be so free Oh, I tell you If you'll be there with me Ohhh, ohhhh, oohhhh Ohhh, ohhhh, oohhhh Ohhh, ohhhh, oohhhh Ohhh, ohhhh, oohhhh Ohhh, ohhhh, oohhhh

Breaking Point
Justin Hayward and John Lodge

Is that the wind On your face? Are you sure you're alone? Are you sure you're alone? Feel the chill Of an empty space Are you sure you're alone? Are you sure you're alone? In the middle of the night Is that your heart you hear? Or a train to nowhere It's pounding in your ear Have you reached your breaking point? Have you reached your breaking point, tonight? Only when you're sleeping can you drift away No one can hurt you Listen to the secret of your dreams Though you want to sleep forever Still you must return Hands of ice Down your spine Are you sure you're alone? Are you sure you're alone? Feel the grip Of a clinging vine Are you sure you're alone? Are you sure you're alone? In the middle of the night Is that your voice I hear? Or the wind that's calling Back across the years? Have you reached your breaking point? Have you reached your breaking point, tonight?

Miracle
Justin Hayward and John Lodge

I closed the door and I walked away From the life I knew On a night in June I took a chance and I lost control Trying to find out why On a night in July Why this hesitation? I can feel that the night is slipping away Wanna drown in the ocean of your love Wanna dance in the moonlight Looking for a miracle I left the city on a wave of despair Just to stand on my own On an August night From the valley of broken hearts Gonna make a new start in September Why this confusion? I can feel that the night is slipping away Wanna walk from the shadows to the sun Just to dream on a summer night Dream about a miracle Looking for a miracle Never had the chance before To turn the tide my way In the heat of the summer night You took my breath away Looking for a miracle Wanna walk from the shadows to the sun Just to dream on a summer night Dream about a miracle Your love is just a miracle I closed the door and I walked away From the life I knew On a night in June I took a chance and I lost control Trying to find out why On a night in July Why this hesitation? I can feel that the night is slipping away Wanna drown in the ocean of your love Wanna dance in the moonlight Looking for a miracle Love is just a miracle Looking for a miracle Your love is just a miracle Looking for a miracle Love is just a miracle

Love Is On The Run
John Lodge

Just because it's raining here It doesn't mean the sun isn't shining Somewhere else for someone You have loved But who's not near you anymore When your love is on the run Don't fall apart at what's begun It's just the healing process Of your heart When your dream has lost its course Don't waste your time closing doors You'll be the last to know When love has gone Love is on the run Love is on the run Love is on the run Love is on the run from me Love is on the run Love is on the run Love is on the run from me Couldn't find the words to say I love you Couldn't fight the hurt of holding on Couldn't hope Couldn't dream Couldn't see tomorrow Without your love I can't go on Love is on the run Love is on the run Love is on the run Love is on the run from me When your love is on the run Don't fall apart at what's begun It's just the healing process Of your heart When your dream has lost its course Don't waste your time closing doors You'll be the last to know When love has gone Love is on the run Love is on the run Love is on the run from me

Deep
Justin Hayward

Every time I hear the sound of the rain Beating on my roof again I want to taste your love And I want to go deep Deep, I want to go deep Deep, I want to go deep Every time I lift my eyes to the sky Something in my heart asks why I want to know the truth And I want to go deep Deep, I want to go deep Like the footprints Disappearing from the sand I try to catch the thought It slips right through my hand And as the darkness Throws its cloak upon the ground I start to run to you I've got to take you down I want to go deep Deep, I want to go deep Deep, I want to go deep Every time I feel I'm losing my way The power of your love remains I want to touch your love And I want to go deep Deep, I want to go deep Deep, I want to go deep Deep, I want to go deep
