    1. Perfect World

      A little white house
      In a little old town
      Stuck in a middle of nowhere.
      Stars shine bright
      When the sun goes down
      It's a perfect world
      As long as you're there.
    chorus:

    Count my blessings
    Say my prayers
    Love waking up in the morning
    Sunlight shining upon your hair
    And you're lying next to me
    It's where I want to be.
      Blue sky over fields of green
      I'm as happy as I've ever been
      One thing makes it oh so clear
      It's a perfect world
      As long as you're here.
      Don't want to live near the lights of the sity
      I like it right where I am
      Just to be part of a woman in love
      With the heart of a simple man.

    2. Rain Love

      Threw out my old raincoat
      Set sail without a boat
      For places somewhere far beyond my dreams
      As the sky came pouring down
      I layed down on the ground
      Like I was dreaming
      I let the feeling wash all over me.
    chorus:

    Rain - Rain Love
    Comin' around me (It's falling around me)
    Rain - Rain Love
    You've finally found me
    In time your're gonna recognize
    One drop will open your eyes
    Rain love.
      It's the color of every sky
      It's the wave to change the tide
      When the world is crumblin' down round you and me
      It's the calm that lifts the storm
      It's the promise that keeps you warm
      When you don't understand
      Just trust the guiding hand that calms the sea.
      It takes this love to make you realize
      No greater love could ever feel the skies.

    3. Just Like Love

      See the color of roses
      Sail across America
      I couldn't wait find you
      I'm looking for a miracle
      And somewhere out of the blue
      In the heart of getting by.
    chorus:

    It only takes a second to learn
    It only takes a second to hurt
    And it's just like love to be the hardest thing
    It's just like love to be everything.
      An ilusion of laughter
      Lost in a desert sky
      That's how I feel without you
      I can't take another night
      Somewhere out of the blue
      From my heart and in your eyes.
      Oh I can feel it all
      Right or wrong I'm here
      Here for you.
      And it's just like love to be the hardest thing
      It's just like love to be everything.
      Just Like Love

    4. Feels Like Rain

      Here I go again
      Hanging on the bitter end
      All alone
      Nothing left to lose.
      Don't want to face tomorrow
      I can't sleep tonight
      Blane it on the weather
      Till I get over you.
    chorus:

    Feels like rain
    Feels like I'll never fall in love again
    There's a cold wind blowing every cloud my way
    And it feels like rain today.
      Taking down every picture
      Hanging on every wall
      Broken dreams, painful memories.
      Like the times I never listened
      And the times I didn't try
      It's gotta be the weather
      'Cause you're not here with me.
      Regreting every minute
      Since I watched you talk away
      'Cause it's not the same without you.
      Now the clouds are hiding
      Every sunny day
      I guess I'll stay inside again
      ( And the storm is coming so I'm here to stay )
      'Cause it feels like rain today.

    5. I'm Coming Home

      Every time I wake up somewhere far away
      Counting all the minutes back to yesterday
      I wonder what you're doing, do you feel this way
      Are you thinking of me too
      Looking in the mirror all I wanna see
      Is your pretty face smilling back at me
      There's nowhere in the world that I would rather be
      Than to be back home with you.
    chorus:

    I'm on my way
    I promise you that I won't be long
    I just called to say
    I've missed every little moment without you
    And I can't wait
    For us to be alone
    I'm almost in your arms
    I'm coming home.
      At night when I'm alone I really miss your touch
      I hold on to your picture and it means so much
      To know that there is someone out there just for me
      And you feel the same way too
      Everywhere I go I wish that you were there
      Everything I do I wish that we could share
      Everywhere I go
      Makes me miss you
      So. I can touch you
      Anytime I close my eyes
      Baby you can feel it
      If you just believe
      I'm coming home.

    6. It's Only Love

      I get high when I see you go by
      My oh my.
      When you sigh, my, my inside just flies,
      Butterflies
      Why am I so shy when I'm beside you?
      It's only love and that is all,
      Why should I feel the way I do?
      It's only love, and that is all,
      But it's so hard loving you.

      Is it right that you and I should fight
      Ev'ry night?
      Just the sight of you makes nighttime bright,
      Very bright.
      Haven't I the right to make it up girl?
      It's only love and that is all,
      Why should I feel the way I do?
      It's only love, and that is all
      But it's so hard loving you
      Yes it's so hard loving you -- loving you.

    7. Rule The World

      There's a garden of hope
      In a town called faith
      And the state of happiness is not
      Far away
      From the country of wants
      And the sea of needs
      I'll take you there with me.
    chorus:

    Someday when I rule the world
    I'm gonna stand by you
    And love you all I can
    You're beautiful
    The reason I believe
    Don't give up on me
    I'll make it wonderfull
    When i rule the world.
      When I look into your eyes
      It just amazes me
      And the way I feel inside
      Well, you're changing me
      Through the sweat and the tears
      Moving step by step
      I'll do anything for you.
    chorus
      High above it all
      In the sky of promises
      I choose to stand by you
      I'll stand by you.
    chorus

    8. Have A Little Faith

      Dry those tears
      From your eyes
      Maybe I can help you
      A few more hours until the light
      And I will hold you
      You've waited patiently
      Don't ever doubt your faith in me
      Baby hold on a little longer.
    chorus:

    When the night is falling
    And it's more than you can take
    Remember that I love you
    Have a little faith
    And just like the morning
    I'll be there when you awake
    Close your eyes, right now, I'm on my way
    If you just have a little faith.
      Even now my heart has wings
      I can't wait to see you
      As I lie beside you in my dreams
      I can't wait to touch you
      Tonight my body lives
      To cross the miles, To kiss your lips
      Baby, hold on a little longer.
    chorus

    9. Only Heaven Knows

      Why ask why
      Show yourself some mercy
      Don't be shy
      You don't have to look away
      It's alright
      You don't have to know the answers
      In your heart you know you'll do
      The very best you can.
    chorus:

    Sail away tonight
    On the ocean of forgiveness
    We do not decide
    Which way the wind will blow
    Baby, close your eyes
    Let go of tomorrow
    Some things in life
    Only heaven knows.
      Face the sky
      The light will never hurt you
      Live your life
      You don't have to be afraid
      Hear the sighs
      Of those who truly love you
      There's nothing you could ever do
      To make them turn away.
      Hush my baby
      Don't you cry
      Say a little prayer to heaven
      And I will sing a lullaby.

    10. Whatever Gets You Through

      Hey - Hey now can't you see
      That's life
      Take a look around you now
      Some day's you shine
      Some days it all unwinds.
      Fly - high above your fears
      Be sure
      Never let them rain on you
      And should they fall
      Then after all.
    chorus:

    Whatever gets you through
    It takes
    Whatever gets you through
    Believe whatever gets you through
    Your life.
      I'm so tired of always finding my world so bare
      Look around you now
      Life isn't always fair
      Whatever gets you through
      Will get you there.
    chorus
