Gift Of Love

13 / 1992

Go to the land with the heaven aglow
Go to the home of the troll and the snow
Lead your dream by the hand
To wonderland
Go for the future you know you can win
Go for the goal that you carry within
Go where the wishes come true
I’ll go with you

Climb the mountains, show me your heaven
Lend me your hand if I go astray
Life is magic when we’re together
Close to you is where I will stay
You’ve got a fire in your heart
I need your flame to warm me when we’re apart
When the world is dark I’ll share your light
You’ll make my world a star in the night

Love is forever with you as my friend
When I am tired you cheer me again
You’re my force when I fight
This game called life

Climb the mountains, show me your heaven
Lend me your hand if I go astray
Life is magic when we’re together
Close to you is where I will stay
You’ve got a fire in your heart
I need your flame to warm me when we’re apart
When the world is dark I’ll share your light
You’ll make my world a star in the night

Climb the mountains, show me your heaven
Lend me your hand if I go astray
Life is magic when we’re together
Close to you is where I will stay
You’ve got a fire in your heart
I need your flame to warm me when we’re apart
When the world is dark I’ll share your light
You’ll make my world a star in the night
You’ll make my world a star in the night

 

Songwriters: Jan Vincents Johannessen/Svein Gundersen

You ask me what I want.
You ask me what I need.
It’s nothing you can buy.
My heart’s not ruled by greed.
I don’t love a diamond.
Diamond’s you see through.
I want you to hold me.
I want you to be true.

Give me the gift of love.
Look me in the eyes.
Say I’m the one you’re dreamin’ of.
That’d be the best surprise.
Give me the gift of your sweet love
in the light of the day,
in the dark of night.

Like the colors of the sun,
the feelings in your heart.
It’s all I want from you.
And when the sky is dark
I’ll have you beside me.
Who could ask for more?
I’ll just wear a smile
when you walk in the door.

Give me the gift of love.
Look me in the eyes.
Say I’m the one you’re dreamin’ of.
That’d be the best surprise.
Give me the gift of your sweet love
in the light of the day,
in the dark of night.

Give me the gift of love.
Look me in the eyes.
Say I’m the one you’re dreamin’ of.
That’d be the best surprise.
Give me the gift of your sweet love
in the light of the day,
in the dark of night.

Give me the gift of love.
Look me in the eyes.
Say I’m the one you’re dreamin’ of
That’d be the best surprise.
Give me the gift of your sweet love
in the light of the day,
in the dark of night.

 

Songwriters: Tom Kelly/Billy Steinberg/ Susanna Hoffs

If a picture paints a thousand words
Then why can’t I paint you?
The words will never show
The you I’ve come to know

If a face could launch a thousand ships
Then where am I to go?
There’s no one home but you
You’re all that left me too

And when my love for life is running dry
You come and pour yourself on me

If a girl could be to places
At one time, I’d be with you
Tomorrow and today
Beside you all the way

If the world show stop revolving
Spinning slowly down to die
I’d spend the end with you
And when the worlds was through

Then one by one the stars would all go out
Then you and I would simply fly away

 

Songwriters: David Gates

I watch the distant lights along the runway
Disappear into the evening sky
Oh, you know I’m with you on your journey
Never could say goodbye

It’s not the sun you’re trying to find
Something else is on your mind
You need a little space and time
To breakaway

It’s not the place you’re going to
It’s just a phase you’re going through
Though I won’t stop you
I don’t want you to

Breakaway
Fly across your ocean
Breakaway
Time has come for you
Breakaway
Fly across your ocean
Breakaway
Time has come

For you to waken in another country
Greet the morning under foreign skies
Leaving me to face another Monday
It’s not easy to get by

It’s not the sun you’re trying to find
Something else is on your mind
You need a little space and time
To breakaway

It’s not the place you’re going to
It’s just a phase you’re going through
Though I won’t stop you
I don’t want you to

Breakaway
Fly across your ocean
Breakaway
Time has come for you
Breakaway
Fly across your ocean
Breakaway
Time has come for you
Breakaway
Fly across your ocean
Breakaway
Time has come for you
Breakaway
Fly across your ocean

 

Songwriters: Graham Hamilton Lyle/Bernhard Joseph Gallagher

Want me to tell you
About all the love that is in my heart
How can I tell you
I wouldn’t even know where to start

There are no words that can describe
The way you make me feel inside
Forever yours
Need I Say More

Who needs the moonlight
All of the stars shining in the sky
They can’t compare to
All of the love shining in your eyes

Oh, there could never be
Anyone else for me
Forever yours
Need I Say More

I’ll be there for you, come rain or shine
Until this crazy world just runs out of time
So don’t you ever doubt it
I couldn’t live without you
One single day of my life

Don’t you know
There’s nothing left to understand
Dim out the lights and take my hand
Need I say more

Need I say more

 

Songwriters: Allan Rich/Lou Pardini/Victor Cook

Stars shining bright above you
Night breezes seem to whisper “I love you”
Birds singing in the sycamore tree
Dream a little dream of me

Say “Night-ie night” and kiss me
Just hold me tight and tell me you’ll miss me
While I’m alone and blue as can be
Dream a little dream of me

Stars fading, but I linger on, dear
Still craving your kiss
I’m longing to linger till dawn, dear
Just saying this

Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you
But in your dreams whatever they be
Dream a little dream of me

Stars fading, but I linger on, dear
Still craving your kiss
I’m longing to linger till dawn, dear
Just saying this

Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams that leave all worries far behind you
But in your dreams whatever they be
Dream a little dream of me

 

Songwriters: Fabian Andre/Gus Kahn/Wilbur Schwandt

Lights are down
Soothing sounds
Moonlight on my bed
Words that you just said
I need you

Lost in time
You are mine
Ever so sincere
Whisper in my ear
Close to you

No one knows what we both have discovered
Ever yearning with wishes so clear
No one knows only me and my lover
You and I we are one and so near

Come and let us fly
Warm July
Dreams of shifting sand
Let me touch your hand
I need you

No one knows what we both have discovered
Ever yearning with wishes so clear
No one knows only me and my lover
You and I we are one and so near come and let us fly

 

Songwriters: Touchton Timothy/Zauner Stefan/Briggs Curtis/Strobel Aron

Here, making each day of the year
Changing my life with a wave of her hand
Nobody can deny that there’s something there
There, running my hands through her hair
Both of us thinking how good it can be
Someone is speaking, but she doesn’t know he’s there

I want her everywhere
And if she’s beside me I know I need never care
But to love her is to need her everywhere
Knowing that love is to share
Each one believing that love never dies
Watching her eyes and hoping I’m always there

I will be there
And everywhere
Here, there and everywhere

 

Songwriters: John Lennon/Paul McCartney

All my life I’ve been a kind of lonely
Searching high and low looking for my way
And all at once I saw you right in front of me
I know that there and then
My lonely days were through

You’re just a rose
That shimmers in the sun
And now I know my life has just begun
You are the sweetest thing that could ever, ever be
And you’re a miracle to me

You fill my life with tenderness and harmony
I never thought that I would be laughing once again
You fill the room with something warm and wonderful
I can’t imagine life
Without your precious love

You’re just a rose
That shimmers in the sun
And now I know my life has just begun
You are the sweetest thing that could ever, ever be
And you’re a miracle to me

Rivers bend, rivers flow till the end of time
They keep flowing through eternity
Take me there, sail away
Take me to the sea
You’re a river that flows inside of me

You’re just a rose
That shimmers in the sun
And now I know my life has just begun
You are the sweetest thing that I’ve ever, ever seen
And you’re a miracle to me
And you’re a miracle to me

 

Songwriters: Neil Sedaka

There was a man
A lonely man
Who lost his love
Through his indifference

A heart that cared
That one time shared
Until it died
Within his silence

And solitaire’s the only game in town
And every road that takes him, takes him down
While life goes on around him everywhere,
He’s playing solitaire

A little hope
Goes up in smoke
Just how it goes
Goes without saying

There was a man
A lonely man
Who would command
The hand he’s playing

And solitaire’s the only game in town
And every road that takes him, takes him down
While life goes on around him everywhere,
He’s playing solitaire

And keeping to himself, begins to deal
And still the King of Hearts is well concealed
Another losing game comes to an end
And he deals them out again

And solitaire’s the only game in town
And every road that takes him, takes him down
While life goes on around him everywhere,
He’s playing solitaire

 

Songwriters: Sedaka Neil/Cody Philip

You tell me that you’re leavin’
I can’t believe it’s true!
Girl, there’s just no livin’ without you
Don’t take your love away from me
Don’t you leave my heart in misery
‘Cause if you go, then I’ll be blue
Breakin’ up is hard to do

Remember when you held me tight
And you kissed me all through the night
Think of all that we been through
And breakin’ up is hard to do

They say that breakin’ up is hard to do
Now I know, I know that it’s true
Don’t say that this is the end
Instead of breakin’ up I wish that
We were makin’ up again

I beg of you don’t say goodbye
Can’t we give our love just one more try?
Come on baby, let’s start anew
Breakin’ up is hard to do

 

Songwriters: Howard Greenfield/Neil Sedaka

A hot dry wind blows right through me
The baby’s crying
And I can’t sleep
But we know a change is coming
Come closer – sweet release

I am calling you
I am calling you…

A hot dry wind blows right through me
The baby’s crying
And I can’t sleep
But we know a change is coming
Come closer – sweet release

I am calling you
I am calling you…

 

Songwriters: Bob Telson

Come and take my hand
Show me how to follow you
Lead me in your way

Come and search my heart
Show me where the darkness hides
Make it as the day

Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah

Come and take my hand
Show me how to follow you
Lead me in your way

Come and search my heart
Help me to be more like you
Every day.

Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah

Come and take my hand
Show me how to follow you
Lead me in your way

Come and search my heart
Help me to be more like you
Every day.

More like you, that’s all I wanna be.
More like you, and always less of me.

Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah

Come and take my hand
Show me how to follow you
Lead me in your way

Come and search my heart
Help me to be more like you
Every day.

More like you, that’s all I wanna be.
More like you, and always less of me
