Aint That Peculiar
By william robinson, warren moore, marvin tarplin and robert rodgers
You do me wrong and still Im crazy bout you
Stay away too long and I cant do without you
Every chance you get you seem to hurt me more and more
But each hurt just makes my love stronger than before
I know flowers grow through rain
But how can love grow through pain
Chorus:
Aint that peculiar
A peculiarity
Aint that peculiar baby
Peculiar as can be
You tell me lies that should be obvious to me
But Im in so much love with you baby that I dont want to see
That the things you do and say are designed to make me blue
Its a doggone shame my love for you makes all your lies seem true
If the truth makes love last longer
Why do lies make love stronger
Chorus:
Aint that peculiar

I Stand For You
By chuck sabatino and michael mcdonald
No greater power
No greater gift to lose
Then the message unspoken
The silence of the truth
Alone we hide in the shadows
But together we bring on the light
Chorus:
One voice is not strong enough
One heart just wont do
In this world I dont count for much
Unless I stand for you
Oh, we are the beginning
Of a sound that might be heard
To the many who lie waiting
Our words break through the cold grip of silence
And they guide us through the night
Chorus:
One choice is all we got
One fact remains true

Every Time Christmas Comes Around
(McDonaldHarris)
Old man winter's coming on
The nights are long and the days are gray
The fading sound of the robin's song
Summer days seem a lifetime away
It's the time that we look to each other
To raise our spirits and chase the blues away
That time of year when we all get together
I see it comin' I can hardly wait
[Chorus:]
It's all right I can't stop thinkin' 'bout it
It's a good life no time to be sad
I feel so right every time christmas comes around
Children's laughter and the snow on the ground
Starts lifting my heart up baby
I feel the love and the joy all around
That's how I know that it's christmas darlin'
So glad that we've still got each other
And this love is a gift we'll exchange
A prayer for peace for my sisters and brothers

Believe In It
By michael mcdonald
Its hard to bet your life on love
When all we learn is how to keep on moving
And the odds are never good enough
For all we know, nothing lasts forever in this life
Show me one thing that will never fade away
What goes with the fall, returns with the spring
This whole world is made that way
Whos to know if love will stay
Chorus:
But theres nothing quite like this
That Ive ever known
And I believe in it
Theres no way out of it
I cant let go
Because I believe in it
We second guess the things we see
When all too soon you know time will show
If love was never meant to be
Then we cant hide before too long

Down By The River
By neil young
Be on my side, Ill be on your side baby
Theres no reason for you to hide
Its so hard for me standin here all alone
When you could be takin me for a ride
Ooh la la la
She could drag me over the rainbow
And take me away
Down by the river
I shot my baby
Down by the river
Dead
Take my hand, Ill take your hand baby
Together we might get away
This much madness is too much sorrow
Its impossible to make it today
Ooh la la la
She could drag me over the rainbow
And take me away
Down by the river

Bad Times
By michael mcdonald
I met a man standing on the street today
Through his eyes, the world looked so grim
As if we all dont know just what its like
When the rain falls down and the lightning strikes
But then girl, Ive been runnin most of my life
And Ive been around long enough to learn
That one mans blue sky is another mans rain
And no matter what is in it for me, I only know for him
Chorus:
These are bad times
These are real bad times
These are sad times
These are bad times
I know we each bear the brunt of our lies
But not until the spirit sinks so low
Does a man start to feel all alone
And when he turns his back on trust
Then theyve only just begun

Lost In The Parade
By michael mcdonald & grady walker
The sight of her aint like before
For a lonely heart, you should feel much more
You left behind a time when dreams came true
And in this real and lonely world
We only do what we can do
All night long that telephone rings
You remember how you loved that girl
Now you think it dont mean a thing
It keeps coming back
So you turn away
Well, thats all behind you now
Like rollin thunder
It just fades away somehow
As we get lost in the parade
Never tried to give what she was looking for
And to a lonely heart, loves an open door
All night long that telephone rings
You remember how you loved that girl
Just when you think it doesnt mean a thing

East Of Eden
By michael mcdonald
The world goes mad around us
As I stand by and watch you sleep
In the hope that harm wont find us
I pray the lord our souls to keep
Does he see us here?
Are we precious in his sight?
Or are we merely dust on this tiny ball?
He hurled out into the night
Somewhere east of eden
From the first time that we stumble
We learn that nothing is assurred
However hopelessly we tumble
Its by the grace of God that we endure
If theres some better place
Far from all thats wrong
But if God in his wisdom
Saw fit to put you here
Then here is where I belong
Somewhere east of eden

Sweet Freedom
By rod temperton
No more runnin down the wrong road
Dancin to a diffrent drum
Cant you see whats goin on
Deep inside your heart
Always searchin for the real thing
Livin like its far away
Just leave all the madness in yesterday
Youre holdin the key
When you believe it
Chorus:
Shine sweet freedom
Shine your light on me
You are the magic
Youre right where I wanna be
Oh sweet freedom carry me along
Well keep the spirit alive on and on
Well be dancin in the moonlight
Smilin with the risin sun
Livin like weve never done

By Heart
By michael mcdonald/chuck sabatino & david pack
Girl, they aint no way out
When something is meant to be
Darling, there aint no doubt
Im right where I want to be
So everything you see as the end of our road
I see as only a start
This aint no time to stop before we begin
And though theres no promises
Chorus:
Everytime I think how good it could be
I start to be believe its up to the stars
I should use my head
But that only tends to lose me and confuse me
Everytime I think how good it could be
I surely believe well make it that far
I should use my head
But I only know you by heart, by heart
Girl, I know Im in
Over my head
