For once in my life I have someone who needs me
Someone I've needed so long
For once unafraid I can go where life leads me
Somehow I know I'll be strong
For once I can touch, what my heart used to dream of
Long before I knew
Oh someone warm like you
Would make my dream come true, yeah yeah
For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before
For once I have someone I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore
For once I can say
This is mine you can't take it
As long as I know I have love I can make it
For once in my life I have someone who needs me
For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before
For once I have something I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore
For once I can say
This is mine you can't take it
As long as I know I have love I can make it
For once in my life I have someone who needs me
For once in my life
Somebody that needs me
Oh baby, for once in my life
Heaven help the child who never had a home
Heaven help the girl who walks the streets alone
Heaven help the roses if the bombs begin to fall
Heaven help us all
Heaven help the black man if he struggles one more day
Heaven help the white man if he turns his back away
Heaven help the man who kicks the man who has to crawl
Heaven help us all
Heaven help the boy who won't reach twenty one
Heaven help the man who gave that boy a gun
Heaven help the people with their backs against the wall
Heaven help us all
Heaven help us all
Now I lay me down before I go to sleep
In a troubled world I pray the Lord to keep
Keep hatred from the mighty
And the mighty from the small
Heaven help us all
Heaven help us all
Heaven help us all
Heaven help us all
If I could
I'd protect you from the sadness in your eyes
Give you courage in a world of compromise
Yes I would
If I could
I would teach you all the things I never learned
And I'd help you cross the bridges that I burned
Yes I would
If I could
I would try to shield your innocence from time
But the part of life I gave you isn't mine
I watched you grow
So I could let you go
If I could
I would help you make it through the hungry years
But I know that I can never cry your tears
But I would
If I could
If I live
In a time and place where you don't want to be
You don't have to walk along this road with me
My yesterday won't have to be your way
If I knew
I'd have tried to change the world I brought you to
Though there wasn't very much that I could do
I still would
If I could
Touch me in the morning
Then just walk away
We don't have tomorrow
But we had yesterday
Hey, wasn't it me who said that nothin good's gonna last forever?
And wasn't it me who said let's just be glad for the time together?
It must've been hard to tell me
That you've given all you had to give
I can understand your feeling that way
Everybody's got their life to live
Well, I can say goodbye in the cold morning light
But I can't watch love die in the warmth of the night
If I've got to be strong
Don't you know I need to have tonight when you're gone?
Till you go I need to lie here and think about
The last time that you'll touch me in the morning
Then just close the door
Leave me as you found me, empty like before
Wasn't it yesterday we used to laugh at the wind behind us?
Didn't we run away and hope that time wouldn't try to find us (Didn't we run)
Didn't we take each other to a place where no one's ever been?
Yeah, I really need you near me tonight
'Cause you'll never take me there again
Let me watch you go with the sun in my eyes
We've seen how love can grow
Now we'll see how it dies
If I've got to be strong
Don't you know I need to have tonight when you're gone?
Till you go I need to hold you until the time
Your hands reach out and
Touch me in the morning (Mornings where blue and gold and we could feel one another living)
Then just walk away (We walked with a dream to hold and we could take what the world was giving)
We don't have tomorrow (There's no tomorrow here, there's only love and the time to chase it)
But we had yesterday (But yesterday's gone my love, there's only now and it's time to face it)
Touch me in the morning
Like a long lonely stream
I keep runnin' towards a dream
Movin' on, movin' on
Like a branch on a tree
I keep reaching to be free
Movin' on, movin' on
'Cause there's a place in the sun
Where there's hope for everyone
Where my poor restless heart's gotta run
Theres' a place in the sun
And before my life is done
Got to find me a place in the sun
Like an old dusty road
I get weary from the load
Movin' on, movin' on
Like this tired troubled earth
I've been rollin' since my birth
Movin' on, movin' on
'Cause there's a place in the sun
Where there's hope for everyone
Where my poor restless heart's gotta run
Theres' a place in the sun
And before my life is done
Gotta find me a place in the sun
Yester-me
Yester-you
Yesterday
What happened to
The world we knew
When we would dream and scheme
And while the time away
Yester-me
Yester-you
Yesterday
Where did it go?
That yester-glow
When we could feel
The wheel of life turn our way
Yester-me
Yester-you
Yesterday
I had a dream so did you
Life was warm and love was true
Two kids who followed all the rules
Yester-fools and now
Now it seems
Those yester-dreams
Were just a cruel
And foolish game we used to play
Yester-me
Yester-you
Yesterday
When I recall what we had
I feel lost
I feel sad
With nothing but
The memory of
Yester-love now
Now it seems
Those yester-dreams
Were just a cruel
And foolish game we had to play
Yester-me
Yester-you
Yesterday
Yester-me
Yester-you
Yesterday
Yester-me
Yester-you
Yesterday

Someday at Christmas men won't be boys
Playing with bombs like kids play with toys
One warm December our hearts will see
A world where men are free
Someday at Christmas there'll be no wars
When we have learned what Christmas is for
When we have found what life's really worth
There'll be peace on earth
Someday all our dreams will come to be
Someday in a world where men are free
Maybe not in time for you and me
But someday at Christmastime
Someday at Christmas we'll see a Man
No hungry children, no empty hand
One happy morning people will share
Our world where people care
Someday at Christmas there'll be no tears
All men are equal and no men have fears
One shinning moment my heart ran away
From our world today
Someday all our dreams will come to be
Someday in a world where men are free
Maybe not in time for you and me
But someday at Christmastime
Someday at Christmas man will not fail
Hate will be gone love will prevail
Someday a new world that we can start
With hope in every heart
Maybe not in time for you and me
But someday at Christmastime
Someday at Christmastime
Someday at Christmas men won't be boys
Playing with bombs like kids play with toys
One warm December our hearts will see
A world where men are free
Someday at Christmas there'll be no wars
When we have learned what Christmas is for
When we have found what life's really worth
There'll be peace on earth
Someday all our dreams will come to be
Someday in a world where men are free
Maybe not in time for you and me
But someday at Christmastime
Someday at Christmas we'll see a Man
No hungry children, no empty hand
One happy morning people will share
Our world where people care
Someday at Christmas there'll be no tears
All men are equal and no men have fears
One shinning moment my heart ran away
From our world today
Someday all our dreams will come to be
Someday in a world where men are free
Maybe not in time for you and me
But someday at Christmastime
Someday at Christmas man will not fail
Hate will be gone love will prevail
Someday a new world that we can start
With hope in every heart
Maybe not in time for you and me
But someday at Christmastime
Someday at Christmastime
Hey lady - you lady
'Cursin at your life
You're a discontented mother
And a regimented wife
I've no doubt you dream about
The things you'll never do
But I wish someone had to talked to me
Like I want to talk to you
I've been to Georgia and California and anywhere I could run
Took the hand of a preacher man
And we made love in the sun
But I ran out of places and friendly faces
Because I had to be free
I've been to paradise
But I've never been to me
Please lady - please lady
Don't just walk away
'Cause I have this need to tell you
Why I'm all alone today
I can see so much of me
Still living in your eyes
Won't you share a part
Of a weary heart
That has lived a million lies
I've been to Nice and the Isle of Greece
While I sipped champagne on a yacht
Moved like Harlow in Monte Carlo
And showed 'em what I got
I've been undressed by kings
And I've seen some things that a woman ain't s'pposed to see
I've been to paradise
But never been to me
(spoken)
Hey... you know what paradise is?
It's a lie... a fantasy recreated by people and places as you'd like them to be
But you know what truth is?
It's that little baby you're holding
And it's that man you fought with this morning
The same one you're going to make love with tonight
That's truth
That's love...
I've even been to crying for unborn children that might have made me complete
But I took the sweet life and never knew I'd be bitter from the sweet
I spent my life exploring
The subtle whoring that cost too much to be free
Hey lady...
I've been to paradise
But I've never been to me
Hey lady - you lady
'Cursin at your life
You're a discontented mother
And a regimented wife
I've no doubt you dream about

The subtle whoring that cost too much to be free
Hey lady...
I've been to paradise
But I've never been to me
You touched me in the sun
I somehow knew I'd been the only one
How wonderful the moment
When the boy became a man
You warmed me in the night
And you taught me how to feel
But it all would seem unreal
To try and go back there again
We walked away from time
I'd like to keep the moment that was mine
I'd like to touch the man I made
Just once before you go
Beau, I've been to many places
And I opened every door
I've done everything a girl can do and more
But I've never been a woman before
No, I've never been a woman before
I've been to many places
And I opened every door
I've done everything a girl could do and more
But I've never been a woman before
Come, lay your head on my heart
Soon we'll be apart
Stay here till the touch of morning
I'm glad we're leaving as friends
Baby, by the way
I forgot to say
Can't we try
Love was never born to say goodbye
Just another helpless fool
In love is what I am
But I don't give a damn
Sorry, I forgot myself
I guess that I'm just not myself
I know that we're not 'spposed to cry
And love is 'spposed to die
When people get to know each other
In case I don't see you again
I really wish you well
Baby, this is hell
Can't we try
Let's go back to yesterday and lie
Touch me one more time
And make me feel that I'm alive
And if we don't survive
At least we'll have a moment here
With honest pain and tears
Then say goodbye
Come lay your head down on my heart
The morning sun will lead you
You know that I don't need you
We can't go back to yesterday
Go away
God, I wish you'd stay
Can't we try
Love was never born to say goodbye
Just another helpless fool
In love is what I am
But I don't give a damn
Once before I set you free
I've got to have you close to me and try
Let's go back to yesterday and lie
Touch me one more time
And make me feel that I'm alive
And if we don't survive
We can end like we began
And even though it's over
Can't we try
Love was never born to say goodbye
Just another helpless fool
In love is what I am
But I don't give a damn
Everyone's a kid at Christmas time
A holly jolly kid at Christmas time
Everyone from Maine to Baton Rouge
Got the news - even Scrooge!
Everyone's a kid at Christmas time
A holly jolly kid at Christmas time
Mistletoe is now the latest rage
And no one wants to act their age
The older folks are playing with their trains
Eating candy canes and trimming trees
Some nice old guy is riding through the sky
Would you believe he's jumping into chimneys?
Whoa, everyone's a kid at Christmas time
A holly jolly kid at Christmas time
Now's the time to throw your cares away
The world is on a holiday
There's even people singing in the street
Life is such a treat and goodness knows
That same old guy, still riding through the sky
And talking to a reindeer with a big red nose
Whoa, everyone's a kid at Christmas time
A holly jolly kid at Christmas time
Everyone from one to ninety-three
Feeling free, look at me!
Oh, everyone's a kid at Christmas time
A holly jolly kid at Christmas time
Now's the time to throw your cares away
And do the things you did, when you were just a kid
The world is on a holiday!
Everyone's a kid at Christmas time
A holly jolly kid at Christmas time
Everyone from Maine to Baton Rouge
Got the news - even Scrooge!
Everyone's a kid at Christmas time
A holly jolly kid at Christmas time!
Everyone's a kid at Christmas time
For once in my life I have someone who needs me
Someone I've needed so long
For once unafraid I can go where life leads me
Somehow I know I'll be strong
For once I can touch, what my heart used to dream of
Long before I knew
Oh someone warm like you
Would make my dream come true, yeah yeah
For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before
For once I have someone I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore
For once I can say
This is mine you can't take it
As long as I know I have love I can make it
For once in my life I have someone who needs me
For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before
For once I have something I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore
For once I can say
This is mine you can't take it
As long as I know I have love I can make it
For once in my life I have someone who needs me
For once in my life
Somebody that needs me
Oh baby, for once in my life
