Letra
Treated me kind Sweet destiny Carried me through desperation To the one that was waiting for me It took so long Still I believed Somehow the one that I needed Would find me eventually I had a vision of love And it was all that you've given to me Prayed through the nights Felt so alone Suffered from alienation Carried the weight on my own Had to be strong So I believed And now I know I've succeeded In finding the place I conceived I had a vision of love And it was all that you've given to me I had a vision of love And it was all that you've given me I've realized a dream And I visualized The love that came to be Feel so alive I'm so thankful that I've received The answer that heaven Has sent down to me You treated me kind Sweet destiny And you know that you did And I'll be eternally grateful Holding you so close to me Prayed through the nights Prayed through the nights So faithfully So faithfully (Faithfully) Knowing the one that I needed (Knowing the one that I needed would find me) Would find me eventually I had a vision of love And it was all that you've given to me I had a vision of love And it was all that you Turned out to be - There's Got To Be A Way4:53

Letra
You were so blind to let me go You had it all but didn't know No one you'll ever find will be Closer to all your dreams than me Believing the grass would be greener You told yourself "I just don't need her now" But I know you'll soon discover You're never satisfied with any other [Chorus:] Someday Oh Someday One you gave away will be the only one you're wishing for Someday hey hey Boy you're gonna pay 'cause baby I'm the one who's keeping score You'll change your mind and call my name Soon as you find they're all the same And when you find yourself alone Don't come back crying You should have known Believe me I'm not pretending It's not hard to predict This ending now 'Cause I know you'll soon discover You're needing me in spite of all the others [Chorus] Someday Oh Someday One you gave away will be the only one you're wishing for Someday hey hey Boy you're gonna pay 'cause baby I'm the one who's keeping score Maybe now you just can't conceive That there will ever come a time when you're cold and lonely Baby, how could you ever believe That another could replace me The one and only But when your down In your time of need And you're thinking that you Might be coming back to own me Just think again 'cause I won't need your love anymore! [Chorus] Someday Oh Someday One you gave away will be the only one you're wishing for Someday hey hey Boy you're gonna pay 'cause baby I'm the one who's keeping score - Vanishing4:11
Letra
If I could recapture All of the memories And bring them to life Surely I would Hear the distant laughter Wasn't it you and me Surviving the night You're fading out of my sight Swiftly [Chorus:] You're vanishing Drifting away You're vanishing I was so enraptured No sensibility To open my eyes I misunderstood Now you're fading faster It's suddenly hard to see You're taking the light Letting the shadows inside Swiftly [Chorus] Reaching out into the distance Searching for spirits of the past Just a trace of your existence to grasp And if somehow I could recapture All of the memories And bring them to life Lord knows I would But now you're fading faster Getting so hard to see Taking the light Letting the darkness inside Swiftly [Chorus] - All In Your Mind4:43
Letra
Come closer You seem so far away There's something I know you need to say I feel your emotions When I look in your eyes Your silence Whispering misunderstandings There's so much you need to realize You'll feel my emotions if you look in my eyes [Chorus] Hey darlin' I know you think my love is slipping away But baby it's all in your mind Don't worry Hold on tight and hear me when I say Baby it's all in your mind Believe me I believe in you There's nothing this feeling couldn't do Move closer my darling Feel the love in my eyes [Chorus] I know you feel my love In your mind... yeah [Chorus] Baby it's all in your mind Baby it's all in your mind Baby it's all in your mind Got to let you know baby Baby it's all in your mind You know my love is good now baby yeah Baby it's all in your mind Baby it's all in your mind Yeah darling Baby it's all in your mind Baby it's all in your mind [Repeat until fade] - Alone In Love4:11
Letra
[Chorus] Swept me away But now I'm lost in the dark Set me on fire But now I'm left with a spark Alone you got beyond the haze and I'm lost inside the maze I guess I'm all alone in love I look into your eyes You turn the other way And now I realize It's all a game you play I hold you in the night And wake to find you gone You're running out of sight It's so hard holding on All alone in love [Chorus] You haunt me in my dreams I'm calling out your name I watch you fade away Your love is not the same I've figured out your style To quickly drift apart You held me for a while Planned it from the start All alone in love Sitting in the dark without you How am I supposed to make it Through the night Slowly fall apart without you Cry away the hours Till the morning light [Chorus] - You Need Me3:51
Letra
Wait a minute Before you walk away Let me finish I've got a lot to say Baby I'm not gonna tolerate This game that you play You'll regret it If you desert me this way When there's nobody to dry your eyes Suddenly you're gonna realize [Chorus:] Don't you know You need me Don't you see Believe me Before you act so hastily Baby remember you need me Honey listen Don't make a big mistake I'm in your system You really can't escape When there's nobody to hold your hand Suddenly you're gonna understand [Chorus] No one understands you like I do After everything that we've been through Baby you can turn around and leave But I know that you'll keep coming right back to me [Chorus] - Sent From Up Above4:05
Letra
I can't imagine Looking in someone else's eyes What we have surpasses Even paradise It's hard to fathom Reaching for someone else's hand What we share is magic Heaven had a plan [Chorus] Sent from up above So much love In my life I can't get enough Of your touch-feels so right Unending passion Somehow the fire never dies What we share Is everlasting Love without without demise He made it happen Placed so much joy into our hands What we dreamed We finally captured Heaven took command [Chorus] - Prisoner4:22
Letra
Here comes the night No more living in the shadow of your love This is my life You always tried so hard to keep me down But now I'll rise above Those empty lies Stop pretending that my accusations Take you by surprise I've realized Now I'm ending all the secrecy I see through your disguise All the dreams we planned I believed so I held on I understand So when the morning comes You know that I'll be gone You don't think that I'll be strong enough I won't be a prisoner of your love No longer blind I can focus on deception Used to keep me by your side I read your mind Don't believe it's all a mystery There's nothing you can hide It's all defined There's nothing you can tell me now To change the way I feel inside All the dreams we planned I believed so I held on I understand So when the morning comes You know that I'll be gone You don't think that I'll be strong enough I won't be prisoner of your love I'm just not the girl you thought I was I won't be a prisoner of your love - Love Takes Time3:48
Letra
I had it all But I let it slip away Couldn't see that I treated you wrong Now I wander around Feeling down and cold Trying to believe that you're gone Love takes time To heal when you're hurting so much Couldn't see that I was blind To let you go I can't escape the pain Inside Love takes time I don't want to be here alone Losing my mind From this hollow in my heart Suddenly I'm so incomplete Lord I'm needing you now Tell me how to stop the rain Tears are falling down endlessly Love takes time To heal when you're hurting so much Couldn't see that I was blind To let you go I can't escape the pain Inside Love takes time I don't want to be here alone You might say that it's over You might say that you don't care You might say you don't miss me You don't need me But I know that you do and I feel that you do Inside Love takes time To heal when you're hurting so much Couldn't see that I was blind To let you go I can't escape the pain Inside Love takes time I don't want to be here alone
