Lyrics from Edges Of The Heart CD
Tight Black Jeans
We had a rough time
We had a moment
We had a fear of separation
All in a rough time
All in a moment
All in a fear of separation
But I’d miss your laughter
I’d miss your grace
I’d miss your love and
I’d miss your face
I’d miss the everyday
I’d miss the dreams
What I’d really miss most is you in your Tight Black Jeans
We had a falling out
We had a moment
We had a fear of separation
All in a falling out
All in a moment
All in a fear of separation
But I’d miss your laughter
I’d miss your grace
I’d miss your love and
I’d miss your face
I’d miss the everyday
I’d miss the dreams
What I’d really miss most is you in your Tight Black Jeans

I Move For Your Love
You could say I can’t ignore you
You would be absolutely right
You could say that I adore you
You would be absolutely right
You could say that I can’t live without you
You can feel my dependency
You could say I live for you
Let there be no discrepancy
I move for your mysterious
I move for your defiance
I move you so serious
I move for your love
I move for your experience
I move for your desire
I move you so serious
I move for, I move for,
I move for your love
You could say I can’t ignore you
You would be absolutely right
You could say I’m all out for you
You would be absolutely right
You could say I’m lost without you
You can feel my insecurity
You could say I live for you
Let there be no discrepancy
I move for your mysterious
I move for your defiance
I move you so serious
I move for your love
I move for your experience
I move for your desire
I move you so serious
I move for, I move for,
I move for your love
Carry me up to the middle of the daylight
Carry me up to the middle of the skies
Build me up to the level of your low light
So I can look in your eyes

Edges Of The Heart
Flying long endangered round the edges of the heart
Bold the eagle flies above
Through the ancient sky
Oh, the strength that belongs to those
As strong as you and I
Left alone to search for love
That longs to laugh and cry
It’s simply passion
A tidal wave of tears
Sympathy’s in fashion
Left from all the years
There’s little in the way
But the years (Flying long endangered round the edges of the heart)
Bold, I came across to you
Cold, it felt to me
Oh, the love that lasts through all
The fast eternity
I give to you a burst of light
I give that I may see
It’s simply passion
A tidal wave of tears
Sympathy’s in fashion
Left from all the years
There’s little in the way
But the years (Flying long endangered round the edges of the heart)
Fly away with me
Fly into the air
Trust these eyes to see
And I will trust you care
And let the falling wind
Take us there
Though the eagle flies so high
Time has played its part
Flying long endangered round
The edges of the heart
So afraid you’ll put an end
To something that I start
It’s simply passion
A tidal wave of tears
Sympathy’s in fashion
Left from all the years
There’s little in the way
But the years (Flying long endangered round the edges of the heart)

Guilty
CHORUS:
Guilty, Guilty
Intractable, I am
Guilty
No innocence, no alibi (2x)
I never expected this
I can’t get over it
I never expected this (2x)
I turned a couple of dials
I pushed a button or two
But I never imagined (2x)
That this could happen to me and you
CHORUS
I never expected this
I can’t get over it
I never expected this (2x)
I threw a couple of glances
I made a couple of moves
But I never imagined (2x)
That this could happen to me and you
CHORUS
I never expected this
I can’t get over it
I never expected this (2x)
I threw some weight around
I said a word or two
But I never imagined (2x)
That this could happen to me and you
Bless those angels that see us through
Bless the ones who watch me and you
Bless our lives and be they true
I never expected this
I can’t get over it
I never expected this (2x)
I turned a couple of dials
I pushed a button or two

Cherish the Love
Beyond the romance, beyond the heartache
Beyond the darkness a voice rings true
Inside the moment, inside the spirit
Inside the heart there’s a voice that rings true
I hear it every time I look at you
I hear it everywhere I go
I know the sound it makes inside of me
Beyond the quarrels, beyond the passion
Beyond the hardships a voice rings true
Inside the mind’s eye, inside your touch
Inside of us there’s a voice that rings true
I hear it every time I look at you
I hear it everywhere I go
I know the sound it makes inside of me
And it says, Cherish the love
Love so tender
Cherish the love
Love so true
Cherish the love
Love so splendid
I cherish my love for you
Beyond the hard words, beyond the soft lights
Beyond a rough night a voice rings true
Inside I feel you, inside you are me
Inside of us there’s a voice that rings true
I hear it every time I look at you
I hear it everywhere I go
I know the sound it makes inside of me
And it says, Cherish the love
Love so tender
Cherish the love
Love so true
Cherish the love
Love so splendid
I cherish my love for you

Too Many Tears
Can we talk about it
The things we hate the most
Can we clear the air
Can we talk?
Are you looking at me
When I look at you
Are you open-eyed
Are you looking?
‘Cause there’s too many tears
Too many fears
Too much to save for later
Did you say something
Did I miss it
Were you reaching out
Did you say something?
‘Cause we need each other
We can’t lose here
We have each other
And we need it
‘Cause there’s too many tears
Too many fears
Too much to save for later
Too many things for you and me sometimes
Too much for anyone
Can we talk about it
Can we talk here
Can we talk about it?
Are you looking at me
Can you see me
Are you looking?
‘Cause there’s too many tears
Too many fears
Too much to save for later

Land of Milk and Honey
All the roads are paved
They go every which way
All the fields are sold for the money
All the trees are gone
All the pastures brown
In this land of milk and honey
All the wars we wage
And the winds that rage
It’s a wonder we’re alive
When the mind is steel
And the hands don’t feel
Can the heart hope to survive?
All the houses match
All the streets are patched
All the neighbors are out running
And the sky is gray
Almost every day
In this land of milk and honey
All the wars we wage
And the winds that rage
It’s a wonder we’re alive
When the mind is steel
And the hands don’t feel
Can the heart hope to survive?
Where have the dreams all gone?
Where have the dreams all gone?
And where did we go wrong
We can’t end this way
All the men in gray
Off to fight each day
To protect their hard- earned money
All their battles fought
All the farmers bought
In this land of milk and honey
All the wars we wage
And the winds that rage
It’s a wonder we’re alive
When the mind is steel
And the hands don’t feel
Can the heart hope to survive?
Where have the dreams all gone?
Where have the dreams all gone?
And where did we go wrong
We can’t end this way

Alone With You
In the early morning, in the middle of the day
In the late evening you can sweep me away
I’d give most anything for one long hour
When I can be alone with you
When the sun don’t shine, when the wind blows
I wrap myself around your fire glow
I’d give most anything for one long hour
When I can be alone with you
Times are getting harder
There’s danger in the heart
The ties that bind us all get torn apart
But the times that get me through
Are when I can be alone with you
Times are getting harder
There’s danger in the heart
The ties that bind us all get pulled apart
But the times that get me through
Are when I can be alone with you
We all need someone with things as they are
When fear runs close and love so far
When care is lost on its way to war
The differences don’t matter anymore
So I sit up and wait for your call
I thought I’d find love but I’d never fall
I’d give most anything for one long hour
When I can be alone with you

Bayou Blue
Get up everyone
Gonna have big fun
Gonna dance all night
Under the moonlight
We gotta go
Hear the sounds of the Zydeco
Let the music move you
In the heat of the Bayou Blue
And if I leave you there
Je vas revenir
Dans Le Vieux Carre
You can dance the night away
Look out for the white coats
They’re coming to get you
They’re dying to take you
To a straight and a narrow room
Look out for the odd gleam
In the eye of the holder
They’re coming to get you
And put you away
We can go hear the Zydeco
Let the music move you
In the heat of the Bayou Blue
And if I leave you there
Je vas revenir
Dans Le Vieux Carre
You can dance the night away
Look out for the Blue Boys
They’re coming to get you
They’re dying to take you
To a straight and a narrow room
Look out for the odd gleam
In the eye of the holder
They’re coming to get you
And put you away
We can go hear the Zydeco
Let the music move you
In the heat of the Bayou Blue
And if I leave you there
In the old town square
You can always stay
And dance the night away
