Words and Music by Dave Loggins
Billy was a small town loner
Who never did dream
Of ever leaving southern Arizona
Or ever hearing wedding bells ring
He never had a lot of luck with the ladies
But he sure had a lot of good working skills
Never cared about climbing any ladder
He knew the way in a small cafe, found the will
He met Miss Bonnie
And a little bit of her was a little too much
A few movies and a few months latter
The feeling got strong enough
They didn't own a car
So it must have been love
That drove him uptown for a diamond
That's when he started goin'
(Chorus)
Over the line
Working overtime
To give her things just to hear her say she don't deserve them
But he loves her and he just kept going overboard
Over the limit to afford to give her things he knew she wanted
'Cause without her where would he be?
See, it's not for him
She is his only need
Ring on her finger and one on the ladder
A new promotion every now and then
Bonnie worked until she couldn't tie her apron
Then stayed at home and had the first of two children
And my, how the time did fly
The babies grew up and moved away
Left 'em sitting on the front porch rocking
And Billy watching Bonnie's hair turn gray
And ev'ry once in a while you could see him get up
And he'd head downtown
'Cause he heard about something she wanted
And it just had to be found
Didn't matter how simple or how much
It was love
And, boy, ain't that love just something
When it's strong enough to keep a man goin'
(Repeat Chorus)
Over the line
Working overtime
She is his only need
His only need
Overboard
Over the limit
Just for her
She is his only need
His only need

Words and Music by Sam Lorber, Stewart Harris and Jill Colucci
I've been a rock and I've got my fences
I never let them down
When it comes to love, I keep my senses
I don't get kicked around
I shivered once you broke into my soul
The damage is done now I'm out of control
How did you get to me?
(Chorus)
No one else on earth could ever hurt me
Break my heart the way you do
No one else on earth was ever worth it
No one can love me like
No one can love me like you
You can make me want you any time you want to
You're burnin' me alive
I can't deny you even when I catch you
Weavin' a weak alibi
'Cause when the night falls you make me forget
Your love is killing me and it ain't over yet
How did you get to me?
(Repeat Chorus)
I shivered once you broke into my soul
The damage is done now I'm out of control
How did you get to me?
(Repeat Chorus Twice)

Words and Music by Naomi Judd and Mike Reid
The keeper of the gates of wisdom
Please let me in
'Cause I just can't go through
Another heartache again
Pretty lies and alibis
How could I be so blind?
Now I'm all alone and scared to stay
Slowly going out of my mind
(Chorus)
He was my strongest weakness
I surrendered heart and soul
It's gonna be a long, long time
'Til I regain control
I'm still a prisoner
Held captive by his memory
He was my strongest weakness
And I'm afraid he'll always be
I gave my faithful heart to someone
I couldn't understand
How he held my little world
In the palm of his hand
Now he's gone and life goes on
So if this pain will ever end
Will I be afraid to risk it all
Ever fall in love again?
(Repeat Chorus)

Words and Music by Karla Bonoff
Everywhere I look the sun is shining
But it's always raining here inside
I can see
You really had a hold on me
It's a mean old love
With a flame that never dies
Won't you tell me why
I can't say goodbye
Everywhere I go you're in my shadow
When I turn around there's no one there
And it's a real bad sign
I'm walking on a real thin line
A fool in love with a fool that never cared
Won't you tell me why
I can't say goodbye
Won't you tell me why
Ask anyone you know
And they'll say love fades away
But this hearts' cryin' just like yesterday
And it's a real bad sign
I'm walking on a real thin line
A fool in love with a fool that never cared
So won't you tell me why
I can't say goodbye
Won't you tell me why
I can't say goodbye

Words and Music by Marcus Hummon and Roger Murrah
I have sailed a boat or two
Out on the wild blue
Yonder to dreams that rarely come true
As far as I can see
From the island of green
I can put my trust in just one thing
(Chorus)
And only love sails straight from the harbor
And only love will lead us to the other shore
Out of all the flags I've flown
One flies high and stands alone
Only love
Peaceful waters, raging sea
It's all the same to me
I can close my eyes and still be free
When the waves come crashing down
And the thunder rolls around
I can feel my feet on solid ground
(Repeat Chorus)
. . .

Words and Music by Buddy Buie and J.R. Cobb
When you hit rock bottom
You've got two ways to go
Straight up
And sideways
I have seen my share of hard times
And I'm letting you know
Straight up
Is my way
Things are tough all over
But I've got good news
When you get down to nothing
You've got nothing to lose
I was born naked
But I'm glory bound
And a dead end street
Is just a place to turn around
(Chorus)
When the sky is the limit
Up on easy street
Rock bottom
Ain't no place to be
Rock bottom
Ain't no place for me
When the law of the jungle
Is the law of the land
Good luck
Stayin' alive
I keep a clinched fist under
This hat in my hand
‘Cause only the strong survive
Things are tough all over
But I've got good news
When you get down to nothin'
You've got nothin' to lose
Anyway, rock bottom
Is good solid ground
And a dead end street
Is just a place to turn around
When the sky is the limit
Up on easy street
Rock bottom
Ain't no place to be
Rock bottom
Ain't no place for me

Lyrics by: Brett James / Holly Lamar
I look around at all the faces and I see
All the lonely people looking back at me
Rich, poor don't matter we're all the same
Everybody's hungry in a different way
We're clawin' and climbin' and kickin' and screamin' and fightin' but really
Chorus
What the world needs now is love
Love and only love
A little help from up above
Faith to make a better day
Let's come together
Lay our differences down
Spread it all around
That's what the world needs now
(La, la, la, la, la)
Sometimes all it takes is just a smile
To change somebody's weather
Chase the clouds out of their sky
Sometimes you gotta give and not receive
Sometimes you gotta live what you believe
Open your arms cause that's where it starts
Right here with you and with me
Chorus
Bridge
Nobody likes the cold
We all need someone to hold
No one wants to be alone
Chorus: Repeat 3 times
(Third time: "Let's come together, lay our prejudices down…")
(La, la, la, la, la)
Fade Out

Lyrics by: Billy Kirsch, Bat McGrath
What good's a dollar
Without your baby sister?
Two scoops of ice cream
On a summer afternoon
We ran wild
And all we ever wanted
Was to rule the world
Between our house and school
(Chorus)
We move on
Put those dreams away
Thinking that we'll find them
Come some rainy day
First time I saw you
I knew I would love you
Half way through sophomore year
I finally asked your name
When I kissed you
I lost my heart completely
All we wanted
Was just to stay that way
We move on
Put those dreams away
Hoping that we'll find them
Come some rainy day
How could I know
That everything would change
Except the way I miss you
Come some rainy day
(Bridge)
I'll sit and laugh with friends
At what we've all been through
But I still catch my breath
When someone mentions you
(Repeat Chorus)
. . .

Words and Music by Billy Kirsch
Tell me when I can open my eyes
I don't want to watch you walk out that door
There's no easy way to get through goodbye
I'd probably try and talk you into staying once more
Or I'd lie and say it's all for the best
Wish you luck and say I have no regrets
But I'm not up to being strong
So I'll wait until you're gone
Is it over yet, is it over yet?
A taxi's waiting in the driveway for you
You call my name, I guess your ready to leave
I'd like to help you with a suitcase or two
But I'm afraid I'm gonna wind up down on my knees
I should tell you that I want you to go
I really need to spend some time on my own
Smile and say goodbye
So you don't see me dying inside
Is it over yet, is it over yet?
I should lie and say it's all for the best
Wish you luck and say I have no regrets
But I'm not up to being strong
So I'll wait until your gone
Is it over yet, is it over yet?

It's in the wind, the noise and steam
Beneath your skin and in your dream
It's who you are, it's how you feel
Your guiding star, your driving wheel
Sing
Let it take you
Let it bend you never break you down
Sing
Let it mold you
Make you bold and never hold you down
Sing your heart out
It's on the street, the neon glare
The hard concrete, the cold night air
It's in your voice, the way you sound
You have no choice but come unwound
Sing
Your songs of truth and pain
All the things you can't explain
Sing
The way you feel inside
Let the music be your guide
Sing your heart out
Sing it like you hear it
Like you have no need to fear it now
Sing it like you know it
Like you're not afraid to show us how
Sing from somewhere way down deep
Sing and make the angels weep
Sing and open heaven's door
Sing 'til you can't sing no more
Sing
Your songs of dark and light
Make your mark with all your might
Sing
Your songs of hope and fear
Sing the song that sent you here
Sing your heart out
Sing, sing, sing your heart out
Sing, sing your heart out
. . .

When I fall in love it will be forever
Or I'll never fall in love
In a restless world like this is
Love is ended before it's begun
And too many moonlight kisses
Seems to cool in the warmth of the sun
When I give my heart it will be completely
Or I'll never give my heart
And in the moment I can feel that you feel that way too
Is when I fall in love with you
And in the moment I can feel that you feel that way too
Is when I fall in love, is when I fall in love
Is when I fall in love with you, with you, with you
