Masquerade (free) 03:15
lyrics
download
I see you staring from your eyes of glass A penny for your thoughts as we put on our masks We hide so that nobody else can see Inside are you hiding from me Caught up in your masquerade Porcelain smile emerald eyes Love charade Caught up in your masquerade Caught up in your masquerade I see your silhouette upon the stage I try to read your thoughts but you've turned the page Masked ball we shall all wear our veils 'til dawn We fall bearing masks of the pawn Caught up in your masquerade Porcelain smile emerald eyes Love charade Caught up in your masquerade Caught up in your masquerade Show us some mercy Take off that cursing mask and let us go Give us a chance The circumstances are beyond our control As if my feelings could pantomime in a masquerade We're hers and we're all going crazy Prisoners oh won't somebody save me Caught up in your masquerade Porcelain smile emerald eyes Love charade Caught up in your masquerade Porcelain smile emerald eyes Love charade Caught up in the masquerade Caught up in the masquerade

Way Back Home 03:57
lyrics

Summer nights In a town beside the sea Dancing lights Were beckoning to me In the summer wind I can hear the voices calling To me again Telling me to find my way back home Dreaming of Those California days Spent in love Until I went away Far away To seek my fame and fortune Hours to days God I've got to get back to you soon I'm on my way back home Anticipating I've been gone so long and I need you now so please be waiting For me when I no longer roam I believe I'll be on my way back home Homeward bound California on my mind At last I found I can't leave your love behind Neon lights They guide me to your door Shining bright Telling me I'm on my way back home I'm on my way back home Anticipating I've been gone so long and I need you now so please be waiting For me when I no longer roam I believe I'll be on my way back home

Brianna 03:50
lyrics

If I should go she would follow me If we wanted we could fly a million miles away Nobody else could see But I could make her come and play Or I could make her go away Brianna My imaginary friend When I needed a companion I could just pretend and see Brianna In our game of make believe No one else could see Brianna Brianna it looks like another rainy day Daddy's working momma says she's really too tired Through the rain we ran to our hideaway Pretending we had made a fire The sheltered cove to keep us dry Brianna My imaginary friend When I needed a companion I could just pretend and see Brianna In our game of make believe No one else could see Brianna I don't hear any more laughter No more make believe or hideaways on a rainy day And I could never forget her I could make her come and play Or I could make her go away Brianna My imaginary friend When I needed a companion I could just pretend and see Brianna In our game of make believe No one else could see Brianna

On The Radio 03:18
lyrics

Lost in a lazy summer's day With the wind blowing through my hair And on the radio A song begins to play The sounds of the city fade away As I'm encaptured by the melody It sounds so good to me It's leading me astray Take me away I want to fly so far away When I hear that song on the radio On the radio I sail away Got syncopation in my stride Because all the boys are watching me Can't blame them for what they see I got Stacy by my side We're caught in the endless summer's heat There's a party in the air tonight Under the corner light We'll go dancing in the street Take me away I want to fly so far away When I hear our song on the radio On the radio I sail away Take me away I want to fly so far away When I hear that song on the radio On the radio I sail away Slowly the dawn begins to break And in the new day comes a melody Seems like it's haunting me As the city starts to wake Softly the city sings along On the airwaves we have now arrived Radio comes alive They're singing my song Take me away I want to fly so far away When I hear my song on the radio On the radio I sail away

Forever Seventeen 04:48
lyrics

He's working every day Pumping gas trying to save some money away For what he doesn't know He's seventeen and he's never gonna grow old Here comes a Friday night Out on the boulevard he's ready to fight For his his girl 'cause she's his world tonight His imagination is running wild At times a man yet still a child He only wants to be Set free Forever seventeen We'll climb upon this summer's night Set free You've got to believe and we'll be Forever seventeen tonight He drives a black Corvette Breaking the law but he hasn't been caught yet Heads for the beach on Saturday Off with his friends just wasting the time away Lying in the sand She catches his eye he reaches for her hand To love her 'til another comes along The sun is setting it's time to fly Leave the girls alone to cry I wonder where could he be well he's Set free Forever seventeen We'll climb upon this summer's night Set free You've got to believe and we'll be Forever seventeen tonight Gets up early Sunday Grabs his guitar and quickly runs away Wondering if he'll ever show The boys tune up and get ready to go Arriving just in time The play a song that brings back to his mind A girl that he forgot to call Her heart is broken but after all He never promised her anything But once I thought I heard him sing Oh come along with me and we'll be Set free Forever seventeen We'll climb upon this summer's night Set free You've got to believe and we'll be Forever seventeen tonight Forever seventeen tonight

Rainbow's End 04:39
lyrics

Time and time again I remember when We were so in love But time gets in the way Forever lasts a day When you fall in love We held our summer's dream Penny in the stream Our wishing well Though now the stream is gone A rainbow lingers on And I hold it tight With all my might The rainbow's end My destiny I pray I see Just a glimmer of a rainbow Beckoning to me Come and set me free The rainbow's end The rainbow calls to me Every now and then I trust my closest friend And I softly cry But fear gets in the way I can never say The reasons why Like why I can't think straight When is it too late And who am I At times I do believe That it is hard to cleave The sinking line Then there you shine The rainbow's end My destiny I pray I see Just a glimmer of a rainbow Beckoning to me Come and set me free The rainbow's end The rainbow calls to me Time and time again I remember when I was so afraid But I rose above it all I've broken down the wall The barricade I passed the tests of time The riddles and the rhymes The pain inside I know now I'll survive Tonight I feel alive The reasons why Burn in the distant sky The rainbow's end My destiny I pray I see Just a glimmer of a rainbow Beckoning to me Come and set me free The rainbow's end The rainbow calls to me

Steal The Night Away 03:47
lyrics

You've been dying Dying to catch my gaze I've been trying But your boyfriend blocks my view What am I supposed to do When you're lonely Do you think of him Or do you see me Your passions are enchained Your blood is high Your heart is swaying Let's steal the night away And make it ours Make this feeling stay Come let me hide away Behind your eyes Into the night Away I've been calling Heart beats telephone rings Let's stop stalling The night is ours to hold Your fantasy will soon unfold You've been crying He's been hurting you You could be flying Upon emotion sail A tender lover's heart is frail Let's steal the night away Make it ours Make this feeling stay Come let me hide away Behind your eyes Into the night Away

Goodbye Shiloh 03:03

Shiloh how can I say goodbye To part of my life I don't want to forget I know it's been so very long Still I keep holding on to the thought of it Though thoughts remain Our lives have changed And it's time to let it go Goodbye Shiloh Goodbye Shiloh One look past my shoulder then I'll go In your eyes Shiloh I know There's restless change It's time to say goodbye Shiloh how can I forget When all that I see reminds me of you and I Every time that I hear your name I swear I still go insane and get butterflies Old friends Who knew us then They all want to know How is Shiloh Goodbye Shiloh One look past my shoulder then I'll go In your eyes Shiloh I know There's restless change It's time to say goodbye

Once Upon A Time 03:34

I loved her madly once upon a time The girl was mine But she left me for another Some day she will discover Girl you mean everything in the world to me I wish to take you back in my arms just like we used to be We had it all Like some Hollywood movie We had it all Now the tale has been told The storybook's closed But once upon a time She was mine Oh baby what's going on inside your mind To leave behind Didn't I treat you like a lady Your hopes will soon be fading You'll never find anyone in the world like me And you had everything you ever dreamed We had it all Like some Hollywood movie We had it all Now the tale has been told The storybook's closed But once upon a time Once upon a time A little girl had everything she ever dreamed Now I never see her Well princess turn on your radio I got something I want you to hear I love you I need you My every thought revolves about you You're always on my mind I don't think that I can live without you We had it all Like some Hollywood movie We had it all Now the tale has been told The storybook's closed But once upon a time She was mine

Fool To Fall In Love 03:38
lyrics

I hear them whispering my name When we pass by the say You'll never be the same boy They say that you're the one to blame And that I never should've Stepped upon your game board They're calling me a fool for loving you I love I love you I love Fool to fall in love I tried explaining They keep proclaiming Fool to fall in love But fools never fall in love They only look at me and frown As if I was some jester Trying to wear the king's crown In their eyes I've done so wrong They live their lives in silence Never hear their heart songs I'd rather have lost in love than to Never love never love you never love Fool to fall in love I tried explaining They keep proclaiming Fool to fall in love But fools never fall in love I love I love you I love Fool to fall in love I tried explaining They keep proclaiming Fool to fall in love But fools never fall in love

Who's the little girl Painting all the red roses green Janine Chasing falling stars To put them in her jar of dreams Janine The curtains are drawn Now she's lost in a song on the radio With faraway eyes she imagines herself as a queen Your dreams are all at your command Janine You know they'll never understand Janine You're somewhere in between Your latest magazine Dream dream dream Janine Who's the little girl Watching players acting out the scene Janine Searching for significance Honey what's the difference Janine She holds in her hand Such delusions of grandeur she won't let go Don't try to save her she's already too far gone Your dreams are all at your command Janine You know they'll never understand Janine You're somewhere in between Your latest magazine So ream dream dream Janine Surrounded by a world of make believe Slowly you've become enveloped by your dreams This ain't no nursery rhyme It ain't no once upon a time Yet still you hold your pocketful of dreams Where's that little girl Once so footloose and fancy free Janine She's somewhere in society Wrapped up in the big machine Janine She's lost her innocence Her dreams have all been spent long ago That make believe queen is quietly fading away Your dreams are all at your command Janine You know they'll never understand Janine You're somewhere in between Your latest magazine So dream dream dream Janine You're somewhere in between Your latest magazine Dream dream dream Dream dream dream Dream dream dream Janine

Let The Little Boy Sing 05:04

On a winter's night A child was born They held him tight They said thank you Lord They raised him well Taught him to obey They don't understand He only wants to play In all he has you'd never know That deep inside the boy is crying Help me let me play In all they've done they should be proud The more they do he sings it louder Watch me break away Come watch me play Let the little boy sing And watch the melody As it follows his dreams To the skies In his eyes music's everything It's all he wants to be So let the little boy sing Every time he sees a stage The boy just smiles he knows he has tomorrow Come what may In all this time and all these dreams And silent prayers you know it seems Tomorrow's far away Oh so far away Let the little boy sing And watch the melody As it follows his dreams To the skies In his eyes music's everything It's all he wants to be So let the little boy sing On a crystal night A star was born Beneath the lights They screamed for more As he took the stage They began to stand He began to sing And they clapped their hands Let the little boy sing And watch the melody As it follows his dreams To the skies In his eyes music's everything It's all he wants to be So let the little boy sing

Phone Number 04:17

It was the night at the movies When you really caught my eye But I had to try to stop thinking about you But there's just no chance 'cause you're dancing inside my mind It seems you've left behind Your phone number And all night Through the streets of the city I tried to find you Before you went home I don't even know your name As I pick up the phone Phone number Well hello I know how crazy this must seem But remember You can always take a chance with a boy like me Phone number Hanging on the line I'm trying to get through I've been calling all day Just to hear from you It was a night of confusion As I lay inside my room I knew I'd soon gather the courage to call you As I lift the receiver The thought of you drives me wild Fumbling with the dial I'm praying this doesn't fall through All night Keep trying to call you In my mind I recite what I say True love Is only a phone call away Phone number Well hello I know how crazy this must seem But remember You can always take a chance with a boy like me Phone number Hanging on the line I'm trying to get through I've been calling all day Just to hear from you

Smile for the cameras Oh you look so glamorous An overnight sensation The talk of Hollywood And just like in the story A carriage is waiting for thee And we here all are sorry You're leaving the neighborhood Never in your wildest dreams Could you see yourself upon the screen One word of warning watch yourself When the clock strikes twelve Cinderella starlet With your slippers made of scarlet Cinderella starlet Come dance for me Cinderella story In your hour of fame and glory Acting out your wildest dreams Caviar and champagne Your nights are purely insane Keep going like a freight train 'til the sun begins to rise I caught your latest movie And wow you really move me With your million dollar smile And mascara made disguise You slide out of your Cadillac A blond haired blue eyed heart attack Your new dress glistens in the light But not your eyes Cinderella starlet The spotlights all now are lit Cinderella starlet Come dance for me Cinderella story In your hour of fame and glory Acting out your wildest dreams A fantasy Bound to a vision A dream which you've envisioned And now you finally captured it Best hang on for your life Beware of the spotlight For when the clock strikes midnight It fills your head with fantasies Then cuts you like a knife Once upon a silver screen Lived a hometown honey movie queen Like the Cinderella fairy tale All give hail Cinderella starlet The spotlights all now are lit Cinderella starlet Come dance for me Cinderella story In your hour of fame and glory Acing out your wildest dreams A fantasy

Northern Lights 07:48
lyrics

Funny how the time just passes by Before we blink an eye We find that the moment's gone I knew a boy here yesterday It seems he's lost his way But still I'll carry on On we go 'til the dawn Holding strong Crying Angel of Faith I beg of you Lift your broken wings and fly And light the sky Funny how life plays games Funny how nothing stays the same Only the fractured memories remain Watching the clouds roll by Wishing that time would petrify So I could be that boy again On we go Through the storm Arm in arm Together yet alone We'll find our way Through the dark and stormy nights When we see those Northern Lights When illusion blinds your eyes Just your inner soul to guide you Not a single soul beside you Look toward the Lights When the darkness covers night Then from northern skies they borrow Until the sun breaks through tomorrow Northern Lights Walking through the streets I saw a man Briefcase tight in hand Caught in the morning crowds He's working every day now nine to five With 2.3 kids and a wife And no time to watch the clouds On we go On our knees Crying pleas Oh heaven above I've lost my way Set your sacred stars in flight Let me see those Northern Lights I saw an old man all alone Defeated to the bone Lost in his weary plight As I approached to ask him why He said don't ever blink an eye Or you'll miss the Northern Lights On we go Toward our heights Toward the Lights Crying oh Lord take me home In your arms Keep me sheltered safe and warm Protect me from the storm
