Song: Lose Your Way
I have no confidence
And I can't see why I should
But I could do most anything for you
And you know I would
I try too hard
And then I give up way too easily
I'm the runner up inside of you
And you're the winner inside of me
Lose your way
And I will follow
Here today
And here tomorrow
Like my freedom I know
I'll never let you go
I still wish on the evening star
And I s'pose I always will
Every child loses something
A whole life can't fulfill
And when you cry I feel the sky
Burst open in my veins
If loving you makes a slave of me
Then I'll spend my whole life in chains
Lose your way
And I will follow
Here today
And here tomorrow
Like my freedom I know
I'll never let you go.
Walk the line
I'll walk inside you
Change your mind
Let your love decide you
It's the reason I know
You'll never let me go

- Name of Song: The Gift of Life
Artist: Desmond Child
Song: We were young
We were restless
We were reachin' for the stars
We had passion, and we burned down the night
Just a high school prince and princess
We built castles in the sky
When you're so much in love, there is no wrong or right
We weren't ready for a child in our lives
We weren't ready then--we were children ourselves
But it still hurts inside
I hope you're still up in heaven 'cause I need you now
I hope you're still a little angel and can hear my prayers somehow
Someday when I'm older, there will be no doubts
I hope you're still up in heaven 'cause I need you now
You'd be 16 now and countin'
You'd have lovers of your own
And I'd be stayin' up just for you to come home
When the gift of life is taken, can it ever be returned?
Or are you waiting in the wings of my soul?
We weren't ready for a child in our lives
We weren't ready then--we were children ourselves
And I know our choice was right
I hope you're still up in heaven 'cause I need you now
I hope you're still a little angel and can hear my prayers somehow
Someday when I'm older, there will be no doubts
I hope you're still up in heaven 'cause I need you now
You gotta make your choices
It's gotta be your choice
It's our God given right
(It's the gift of life)
To make your choices
Some of them will hurt
But you know what's right inside
(That's the gift of life)
Well, now I'm ready
I need someone to hold
My hands are empty, and I'm reachin' for you when I'm all alone
I hope you're still up in heaven 'cause I need you now
I hope you're still a little angel and can hear my prayers somehow
Someday when I'm older, there will be no doubts
I hope you're still up in heaven 'cause I need you now
I hope you're still up in heaven 'cause I need you now
The gift of life is precious--
I wanna give it back somehow...

- Name of Song: Tears in Heaven
Artist: Eric Clapton
Song: Would you know my nameif I saw you in heaven?
Would it be the same if I saw you in heaven?
I must be strong and carry on 'cause I know I don't belonghere in heaven.
Would you hold my hand if I saw you in heaven?
Would you help me stand if I saw you in heaven?
I'll find my way through night and day 'cause I know I just can't stayhere in heaven.
Time can bring you down.
Time can bend your knees.
Time can break your heart, have youbeggin' "Please!"
Beggin' "PLEASE!!!"
Beyond the door, there's peace I'm sure,
and I know there'll be no more tears in heaven.
Would you know my nameif I saw you in heaven?
Would it be the sameif I saw you in heaven?
I must be strong and carry on 'cause I know I don't belonghere in heaven.

- Name of Song: the dance
Artist: garth brooks
Song: The Dance
Looking back on the memory of
The dance we shared 'neath the stars alone
For a moment all the world was right
How could I have known that you'd ever say goodbye
(chorus)
And now I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end the way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance I could have missed the pain
But I'd of had to miss the dance
Holding you I held everything
For a moment wasn't I a king
But if I'd only known how the king would fall
Hey who's to say you know I might have changed it all
*chorus*
Yes my life is better left to chance
I could have missed the pain but I'd of had to miss the dance.

- Name of Song: Victim of the Game
Artist: garth brooks
Song: Victim of the Game
Well, it took a little time
But I guess you finally learned
That promises get broken
And bridges do get burned
You've been siftin' through the ashes
Just tryin' to find a flame
Holdin' on to nothin'
You're a victim of the game.
You were standin' way too close
To see it all fall apart
And there were things you couldn't hear
'Cause you were listenin' with your heart
But you can't say I didn't warn you
Now there's no one else to blame
There's on one quite as blind
As a victim of the game.
(chorus)
And it don't matter who you are
It treats everyone the same
All you need's a heart
To be a victim of the game.
You know it's really gettin' to you
When you take to tellin' lies
And you can try to fool your friends
But yo can't look 'em in the eye
There ain't no standin' tall
In the shadow of the shame
When everybody knows
That you're a victim of the game.
*chorus*
Oh, you know, when I look into your eyes
I can really feel the pain
Starin' in the mirror
At a victim of the game

- Name of Song: i will remember you
Artist: Sarah Mclachlan
Song: I Will Remember You
I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories
Remember the good times that we had?
I let them slip away from us when things got bad
How clearly I first saw you smilin' in the sun
Wanna feel your warmth upon me, I wanna be the one
I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories
I'm so tired but I can't sleep
Standin' on the edge of something much too deep
It's funny how we feel so much but we cannot say a word
We are screaming inside, but we can't be heard
But I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories
I'm so afraid to love you, but more afraid to lose
Clinging to a past that doesn't let me choose
Once there was a darkness, deep and endless night
You gave me everything you had, oh you gave me light
And I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories
And I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories
Weep not for the memories.

- Name of Song: iris
Artist: goo goo dolls
Song: Iris
And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't wanna go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
And sooner or later it's over
I just don't wanna miss you tonight
Chorus:
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
And you bleed just to know you're alive
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

- Name of Song: without you
Artist: dixie chicks
Song: Without You
I've sure enjoyed the rain
but I'm looking forward to the sun
You have to feel the pain
when you lose the love you gave someone
I thought by now the time
would take away these lonely tears
I hope you're doing fine all alone,
but where do I go from here 'cause
Without you I'm not okay
And without you
I've lost my way
My heart's stuck
in second place ooh
Without you
Well I never thought I'd be
lying here without you by my side
It seems unreal to me that
the life you promised was a lie
You made it look so easy
making love into memories
I guess you got what you wanted
but what about me 'cause
Without you I'm not okay
And without you
I've lost my way
My heart's stuck
in second place ooh
Without you
Somebody tell my head to try to tell my heart
That I'm better off without you
'Cause baby I can't live
Without you I'm not okay
And without you
I've lost my way
My heart's stuck
in second place ooh
Without you...Without you

- Name of Song: black balloon
Artist: goo goo dolls
Song: Black Balloon
Babies black balloon makes her fly
I almost fell into that hole in your life
And you're not thinking about tomorrow
'Cause you were the same as me
But on your knees
A thousand other boys could never reach you
How could I have been the one
I saw the world spin beneath you
And scatter like ice from the spoon
That was your womb
Comin' down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you get colder
Or are you someone's prayer
You know the lies they always told you
And the love you never knew
What's the things they never showed you
That swallowed the light from the sun
Inside your room
Comin' down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you get colder
And there's no time left for losin'
When you stand they fall
Comin' down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you grow colder
All because I'm
Comin' down the years turn over
And angels fall without you there
And I'll go on to bring you home
All because I'm
All because I'm
And I'll become
What you became to me

- Name of Song: The background
Artist: Third eye blind
Song: Everything is quiet.Since you're not around. And I live in the numbness now. In the background.I do the things we did before. I walk Haight street to the store. And they say wheres that crazy girl. You don't get drunk on red wine. And fight no more. Cause I don't seeyou anymore. Since the hospital. But the plans I make still have you in them. Then you come swimming into view. And i'm hanging on your words like I always use to do. The words they use so lightly. I only feel for you.i only know this cause I am. Way back down . In the background. words they come and memories all repeat. I lift you head while. They change the hospital sheets. I would never lie to you. No I would never lie to you. I felt you long afterwe were through. And the plans I make still have you in them. Cause you come swimming into view. And I'm hanging on your words. Like I always use to do. The words they use so lightly. I only use for you. I only know this cause i am.Way back down. In the background.

- Name of Song: Fly
Artist: Celene Dion
Song:
Fly, fly little wing
Fly beyond imagining
The softest cloud, the whitest dove
Upon the wind of heaven's love
Past the planets and the stars
Leave this lonely world of ours
Escape the sorrow and the pain
And fly again
Fly, fly precious one
Your endless journey has begun
Take your gentle happiness
Far too beautiful for this
Cross over to the other shore
There is peace forevermore
But hold this mem'ry bittersweet
Until we meet
Fly, fly do not fear
Don't waste a breath, don't shed a
tear
Your heart is pure, your soul is
free
Be on your way, don't wait for me
Above the universe you'll climb
On beyond the hands of time
The moon will rise, the sun will set
But I won't forget
Fly, fly little wing
Fly where only angels sing
Fly away, the time is right
Go now, find the light

- Name of Song: The Promise
Artist: Tracy Chapman/New Beginning
Song: If you wait for me
then I'll come for you
Although I'v travelled far
I always hold a place for you in my heart
If you think of me
if you miss me once in a while
then I'll return to you
I'll return and fill that space in your heart
remembering your touch
your kiss
your warm embrace
I'll find my way back to you
If you'll be waiting
If you dream of me, like I dream of you
In a place that's warm and dark
In a place where I can feel the beating of your heart
Remembering your touch
your kiss
your warm embrace
I'll find my way back to you
If you'll be waiting
I've longed for you
and I have desired
to see your face your smile
to be with you
wherever you are
remembering your touch
your kiss
your warm embrace
I'll find my way back to you
please say you'll be waiting
together again
It would feel so good
to be in your arms, where all my journeys end
If you can make a promise
If it's one that you can keep
I vow to come for you
If you'll wait for me
and say you'll hold a place for me in your heart

- Name of Song: Remember the Tinman
Artist: Tracy Chapman/New Beginnings
Song: There are locks on the doors
and chains streched across all the entries to the inside
There's a gate and a fence and bars to protect from only god knows what lurks outside
Who stole your heart left you with a space that no one and nothing can fill
Who stole your heart
Who took it away knowing that without it you can't live
Who took away the part so essential to the whole
Left you a hollow body
Skin and bone
What robber, what thief
Who stole your heart and the key
Who stole your heart, the smile from your face
the innocence the light from your eyes
who stole your heart
or did you give it away
and if so, then when and why
who took away the part so essential to the whole
left you a hollow body
skin and bone
what a robber what thief
whole stole your heart and the key
now all sentiment is gone
now you have no trust in no one
who stole your heart
did you know but forget the method and moment in time
was it a trickster
using mirrors and sleight of hand
a strong elixir
or a potion that you drank
who hurt your heart
Bruised it in a place
that no one and nothing can heal
you've gone to wizards, princes and magic men
you've gone to witches
the good and bad, the indifferent
but still all sentiment is gone
but still you have no trust in no one
if you can tear down the walls
throw your armor away
remove all roadblocks barricades
if you can forget there are bandits and dragons to slay
and don't forget that you defend an empty space
and remember the tinman found he had what the thought he lacked
remember the tinman
go find your heart
and take it back
who stole your heart, maybe no one can say
one day you will find it I pray

- Name of Song: Tell it like it is
Artist: Tracy Chapman
Song: Say It
Say It
Say It
Tell it like it is
Say it
Say it
Say it
Tell it like it is
What breaks your heart
What keeps you awake at night
What makes you want to breakdown and cry
Say you'll never turn your back
Say you'll never harden to the world
Say you'll never try to still the thythms in your breast
Say you'll never look at the evil among us and try to forget
Say you'll tell it like it is
Say it
say it
say it
So everyone can hear
say it
say it
say it
tell it like it is
What breaks your heart
what deeps you awake, awake at night
How your anger and grief make you want to cry out
and tell it like is is
But say you'll never close your eyes
Or pretend that it's a rosy world
Say you'll never try to paint what is rotten with a sugarcoat
Say you'll talk about the horrors you've seen and the torment you know
And tell it like it is
Say it say it say it
So no one can forget
Say it
say it
say it
tell it like is
What breaks your heart
what keeps you awake at night
what makes you want to break the ties that silence and bind
and tell it like it is
say you'll never cover your ears and close your mouth
and live in a silent world
say you'll only run as far or as fast as you need to be secure
say that you'll tell the truth
when a lie could cross your lips
and tell it like it is
say it
say it
say it
say it
say it
say it
(repeated many times)
