1. THIS IS THE MOMENT

She said, "What went wrong?"
I said, "I loved you all along."
She said, "How could you love me and hurt me like you do?"
Oh, no. I said, "Don't say good-bye. Don't go. Please don't let us die."
This Is The Moment we could close the door,
Or hold on and fight for the chance at something more.
This Is The Moment, and if we hang in,
It's when we'll really begin.

She said, "I'm so scared."
I said, "Just think of what we've had."
She said, "That was then, how can I feel that again?"
Oh, no. I said, "Don't walk away. Don't go, it's hard as hell to stay,
But I know, you'll understand someday, in times like this
We find out what we're about."
This Is The Moment we could close the door
Or hold on and fight for a chance at something more.
This Is The Moment we've got to hang in,
That's when love really begins.

Oh, help me, please help me, hold us together.
I promise that we can still have forever.
Oh, no. I said, "Don't say good-bye. Don't go. Please don't let us die."
This Is The Moment we could close the door,
Or hold on and fight for the chance at something more.
This Is The Moment we've got to hang in,
It's when we really begin.

This Is The Moment we could close the door,
Or hold on and fight for the chance at something more.
This Is The Moment we've got to hang in,
It's when we really begin.
This Is The Moment we could close the door,
Or hold on and fight for the chance at something more.
This Is The Moment we've got to hang in,
It's when we really begin.


2. I HAVE A LOVE

I love him, I'm his
And everything he is, I am, too
I love her, we're one
There's nothing to be done

I have a love
And it's all that I need
Not a thing I can do
(Not a thing I can do)

When love comes so strong
There is no right or wrong
Your love is so strong
(When love comes so strong)
(There is no right or wrong)

Your love is so strong
(I love him, I'm his)
Be with her now forever
(And everything he is)

And love her
(Your love is your life)
My love

I have a love
And there's nothing to be done
Right or wrong

(I love him with a [Incomprehensible])
I have a love
And there's nothing to be done
(There's nothing)
Right or wrong

(I love him with a [Incomprehensible])
I have a love
And there's nothing to be done
(There's nothing)
Right or wrong


3. SO MUCH IN LOVE

As we stroll along together
Holding hands, walking all alone
So in love are we two
That we don't know what to do

So in love
(Two, so in love)
In a world of our own
(Two, so in love)

As we stroll by the sea together
Under stars twinkling high above
So in love are we two
No one else but me and you

So in love
(Two, so in love)
So much in love
(Two, so in love)

So in love
(Two, so in love)
So much in love
(Two, so in love)

We stroll along together
I tell you, "I need you, oh, so much
(I need you so much)
I love, love you my darlin'
(Darlin')
Can't you tell it in my touch?"

When we walk down the aisle together
We will vow to be together till we die
So much love have we two
Just can't wait to say, "I do"

So in love
(Two, so in love)
Are you and I
(Two, you and I)

So in love
(Two, so in love)
So much in love
(So much in love)

So in love
(Two, so in love)
Are you and I
(Two, you and I)

So in love
(Two, so in love)
So much in love
(So much in love)

So in love
(Two, so in love)
Are you and I
(Two, you and I)

So in love
(Two, so in love)
So much in love


4. SLOW BREAKUP

Someone cries, a sound across the room,
Words that fall, you've heard them all,
It's nothing new.
Everyone tries to give you their advice,
But nothing seems to change.
Days go by, you sleep in separate rooms,
It's nowhere with no one to tell your troubles to.
Maybe time will take away the pain,
But how long can you wait?
Slow Breakup,

You're left with no direction.
Slow Breakup,
You're longing for affection.
Slow Breakup,
You cry on your own shoulder.
Spend the night, you're talking with a stranger.
You're at home in a bar then you go so far
Away from your home.
Maybe it's wrong, this isn't someone like her,
But it's someone all the same.
Slow Breakup,
All lonely inside.
Slow Breakup,

You lost your pride.
Slow Breakup,
Cry on your own shoulder.
But nobody knows what's the right thing to do,
Then it happens to you.
Then it happens?
Slow Breakup,
Cry on your own shoulder.
Slow Breakup,
On your own.
Slow Breakup,
Left with no direction.
Slow Breakup,
Longing for affection.


5. LOVE IS THE ONLY CHAIN

Love is forever, baby so are we.
For every ship there is a shining sea.
For every heart, there is a waiting heart.
You are the light that lead me through the dark.
Your love keeps shining like a star,
When I am lost I know, your love will find me.
Love Is The Only Chain.

I say, Love Is The Only Chain.
Oh, Love Is The Only?
We fit together, baby we belong.
The music plays, you're my only song.
Here with you, I am complete.
You have become the very heart of me.
Your love keeps shining like a star,
When I am lost I know, your love will find me.
Love Is The Only Chain.

I say, Love Is The Only Chain.
Oh, Love Is The Only?
Love Is The Only Chain.
Love Is The Only Chain.
I say, Love Is The Only Chain.
Love Is The Only Chain.


6. WHEN A MAN LOVES A WOMAN

When A Man Loves A Woman,
Can't keep his mind on nothin' else,
He'd trade the world for the good thing he's found.
If she is bad, he can't see it,
She can do no wrong.
Turn his back on his best friend
If he put her down.

When A Man Loves A Woman,
Spend his very last dime, tryin' to hold on to what he Needs.
He'd give up all his comforts,
Sleep out in the rain, if she said it ought to be.
When A Man Loves A Woman,

Deep down in his soul, she can bring him such misery.
If she is playing him for the fool,
He'd be the last one to know,
Lovin' eyes can never see.
When A Man Loves A Woman,
I know exactly how he feels.


7. I WONDER WHY

I Wonder Why it is the sky's so quiet tonight,
There's not a cloud in sight,
Just burning stars.
It seems strange to me, the way the waves obey
The moon that shines above
And draws them to eternity.
I Wonder Why it is that you are here with me,
I Wonder Why.

I Wonder Why it is the sea's so calm tonight,
The sands are ghostly white
Beneath the moon.
It seems strange to me to stand in endless space,
And know that in this place
I'm held within its timeless sway.
I Wonder Why it is that you are here with me.
I Wonder Why.

The wisdom of the world with all its mystery
Is strangely haunting me on this great shore.
I know no book can teach, but I can feel tonight,
The sky above, the sea below,
And you my love.
Tonight the world is mine, we're on the edge of time.
I Wonder Why.

I Wonder Why it is the sky's so quiet tonight,
There's not a cloud in sight,
Just burning stars.
It seems strange to me, that breeze in holy light,
We soar in wingless flight,
Amidst this vast eternity.
Tonight this world of mine is on the edge of time,
I Wonder Why.
I Wonder Why.
I Wonder Why.
I Wonder Why.


8. KING OF TONGA

She was bronzing in the sun drinking a cool rum punch
When a guy named D' Gatoni said, "Wow! Let me take
Your picture. You could be a model, girl. There's a guy
I know to show you how."
Now a model waves good-bye as on the plane she flies
Off to meet the king, the King of Tonga,
King of Tonga.

Now the girl gets to the palace dressed in black silk lace,
She says, "Well, my king of fashion and fame?"
And the king swings down and he fall on his face,
Said, "I'm so really, really glad you came."
Now the girl tries to resist, running from his kiss.
Now she's callin' the cops on the King of Tonga,
King of Tonga.

Daddy still doesn't momma night,
Tells her son, "Son, you squeeze her tight."
His daddy taught him everything he knows,
So the king steals the daddy's clothes.
Now the police knew the king, they knew him very well.
They said, "King, king what's the matter now?"

He said, "Boys, you've got to talk to this bride-to-be,
'Cause this crazy girl won't take my vow."
They said, "Give her romance."
And the king takes a chance,
And soon there'll be a new Queen
For the King of Tonga,
King of Tonga.
King of Tonga.


9. IF LOVE TAKE YOU AWAY

Time's on your hands, on your hands
But you never had so much to do.
She's got your heart, got your heart
She'll never give it back to you.
You know love takes time,
But it's well worth the wait.
Tell her today, boy, tomorrow's way too late.
If Love Takes You Away,

It can take you where you want to go.
If Love Takes You Away,
Let it take you where you'll never go.
Wait for tonight, for tonight,
Tonight is always on its way.
Talk with a beat, with a beat,
You never had so much to say.
Put your heart down as a bet,
Winner gets a kiss.
If you're playing the first time,
You can't miss.
If Love Takes You Away,

It can take you where you want to go.
If Love Takes You Away?
(Love takes you away, away)
It's all in the way, all in the way,
All in the way you show,
You're not afraid to climb,
'Cause it may be the first time,
Yes, it may be the last time,
You never really know.
If Love Takes You Away,

It can take you where you want to go.
If Love Takes You Away,
(Love'll take you, it'll take you)
If Love Takes You Away,
(Oh, love takes you away, away)
If Love Takes You Away,
(Oh, Love Takes You Away, away)


10. THE PROMISE

You were told to wait there for love,
Love said it's waiting for you.
It told me I could say?
I know, it's never easy getting all dressed up
With no place to go.
Helpful, that's what we're here for
All one together.

Harmony gets melody,
The orchestra gets its symphony,
The continents get seven seas,
Boy gets girl, and all you got was me
With The Promise I'd try to be honest,
I'd like to give you nothing to fear.

Lovers get, "I'm sorry."
Music gets to keep a key,
Children get to ride for free,
Mind and body is all you get of me
And The Promise I'd try to be honest,
I'd like to give you nothing to fear,
Nothing to fear
