Missing Person Another question in me One for the powers that be It's got me thrown and so I Put on my poker face And try to figure it out This undeniable doubt A common occurrence Feeling so out of place Guarded and cynical now Can't help but wondering how My heart evolved into a Rock beating inside of me So I reel, such a stoic ordeal Where's that feeling that I don't feel? Chorus: There was a boy who had the faith to move a mountain And like a child he would believe without a reason Without a trace he disappeared into the void and I've been searching for that missing person Under a lavender moon So many thoughts consume me Who dimmed that glowing light That once burned so bright in me Is this a radical phase A problematical age That keeps me running From all that I used to be Is there a way to return Is there a way to unlearn That carnal knowledge That's chipping away at my soul I've been gone too long Will I ever find my way home? Chorus: There was a boy who had the faith to move a mountain And like a child he would believe without a reason Without a trace he disappeared into the void and I've been searching for that missing person He used to want to try to walk the straight and narrow He had a fire and he could feel it in the marrow It's been a long time and I haven't seen him lately but I've been searching for that missing person |

Love Me Good Sometimes I feel like this world Is just one big gigantic merry-go-round You gotta hold on tight or you get hurled through the air Yeah, life is a three-ring circus With clowns and freaks and camels and such And you never know when you might be attacked by the bears Chorus: Give me love, give me love, love me good Sometimes I feel like I'm afraid of my own shadow and then Sometimes I can feel as bold as Genghis Khan But I could never live in a yurt On a diet of Mongolian barbecue I conquer the world for a moment, then the moment is gone Chorus Bridge: Let us take a moment now to bow our heads and pray If only to give thanks for making it through another day Sometimes I wish I was in a movie Or some 70's TV thing Where everything gets neatly wrapped by the end of the show Yeah, but this ain't Hollywood And this sure ain't the Brady Bunch And how this plot's gonna all pan out, I don't really know Chorus |

Live the Life We're passengers aboard the train Silent little lambs amidst the pain That's no longer good enough And when it's time to speak our faith We use a language no one can explain That's no longer good enough And God knows it's a shame As we look to pass the flame We are not the worthy bearers of his name Chorus: For the world to know the truth There can be no greater proof Than to live the life, live the life There's no love that's quite as pure There's no pain we can't endure If we live the life, live the life Be a light for all to see For every act of love will set you free There's something beautiful and bold The power of a million human souls Come together as one And each in turn goes out to lead Another by his word, his love, his deed Now the circle is done It all comes back to One For it is He and He alone Who has lived the only perfect life we've known Chorus |

Never Been Unloved I have been unfaithful I have been unworthy I have been unrighteous And I have been unmerciful I have been unreachable I have been unteachable I have been unwilling And I have been undesirable Chorus: Sometimes, I have been unwise I've been undone by what I'm unsure of But because of you, and all that you went through I know that I have never been unloved I have been unbroken I have been unmended I have been uneasy And I've been unapproachable I've been unemotional I've been unexceptional I've been undecided And I have been unqualified Chorus: Unaware, I have been unfair I've been unfit for blessings from above But even I can see the sacrifice you made for me To show that I have never been unloved |

I Believe In You Now Once upon a time I was faithless, strutting blind Through the valley of the lost So now you find it rather strange When you hear me claim the name Of the one who bears the cross... and I say... Chorus: I believe in You now A new light is showing me how I used to walk in the shadows of doubt But I believe in you now Will there ever come a day When you follow in the way Of the truth that sets you free? To where the thunder of a voice And the echo of a choice Will bring you to your knees No longer running through the night A conversion to the light Giving way to disbelief... and you say... Chorus |

Don't Give Up I remember when you took a stand With the pearl of wisdom in your hand And a soul of desire You hold your own up against the world A lion's heart in a little girl So unafraid of the fire But those days don't last Sweet dreams die fast A stumble when you walk on the wire When all your friends Start giving in The flames are burning higher and higher Chorus: Don't give up, Andrea Got the whole world at your feet Just keep on holding on This is where you need to be All the days that you've been spending Spinning while your heart's descending Like a stone in the ocean Sometimes when you think the world is ending It's really just a new beginning The other side of emotion But I've seen your eyes No compromise When you set your mind on the matter Be strong through the tears And your sight will clear You're gonna get what you're after Chorus Bridge: Don't be surprised when the road divides Just take the one less traveled by Chorus |

Let Me Show You the Way I'm looking at you, old friend of mine There's no use pretending that everything's fine Now don't be so brave, don't be so proud I want you to know that I'm here for you now I can see you hurting and it's hurting me It doesn't have to be this way... Chorus: (Somebody gonna hold your head up) If you let me hold you closer (Somebody gonna show you the light) Let me know you (Somebody gonna hold your head up) Let me show you the way (Somebody gonna see you right) I'm feeling for you, feeling so much When this heart is big enough for the both of us I'll give you my love if you give me your pain I'll hold it inside of me 'till you're stronger again Well, I hate seeing you so far away When not a word can say it enough... Chorus Bridge: I'll be your rock for this day When I hear you calling out my name 'Cause I know you'd only do the same for me Chorus |

I Know Your Name Who is the you that no one else can see In your heart, a lonely one afraid to be Lost again, need a friend You hide your soul to keep the hurt inside All alone, your tears call out into the night Is He there, does He care Chorus Yes, I know your name Every prayer you pray I'm the One Who brought you to this place The Voice Who sings to you The Hand that clings to you Oh My child, I've always known your name... known your name I hold you close to me, close to heart And this kind of love will find you anywhere you are Never fear, I am here Chorus |

A Matter of Time I picked up the guitar to write several songs for this record, including this one. Brent Bourgeois delivers a great lyric. If I could, I would tell you why The first time I saw her I could touch the sky I turned to stone, and I could not speak She had the ability to make me weep Chorus: Always wishing, always hoping That she'll get the message from the bottom of my heart Let's together share forever It's just a matter of time I had to wait and just let her breathe That's never been easy for a man to see She moved slow and she took her time She kept me guessing what was on her mind Chorus: Always wishing, always hoping That you'd get the message from the bottom of my heart Let's forever be together It's just a matter of time |

In My Arms Again Inspired and written for the movie "Titanic." Grateful for the opportunity to send them a song; grateful it landed on this record. Chorus: I really wanna see you I really wanna touch you If only I could hold you in my arms again I really wanna reach you Forever to be with you If only I could hold you in my arms again It was written in the stars On the pages of my heart Oh, that someday I would find The love I feel for you tonight On the ocean of our dreams Like a prayer you came to me And the longing that had been Found its ending in your eyes And I am missing you tonight Chorus Across the waves, across the sea Separating you from me Here's a promise and it's mine I will love you for all time I'm wishing you were here tonight Chorus Song for Rich |

Hello, Goodbye Where's the Navigator of your destiny? Where is the Dealer of this hand? Who can explain life and its brevity 'Cause there is nothing here that I can understand You and I have barely met And I just don't want to let go of you yet Chorus: Noah, hello, goodbye I will see you on the other side Noah, sweet child of mine I will see you on the other side And so I hold your tiny hand in mine For the hardest thing I've ever had to face Heaven calls for you before it calls for me When you get there, save me a place A place where I can share your smile And I can hold you for more than just a while Chorus |
