Searchin For Understanding
By darrell brown and michael mcdonald
So long ago that you can hardly remember
So far away but not so out of mind
And youre still waiting to be forgiven
Whose problem is it after all this time
Down deep inside, if I were in your shoes
I know in my heart, Id never do that to you
Its time to decide, if I still wanna try
If loves gonna last, theres one thing I gotta find
Im searchin for understanding
Im lookin for understanding
Im sorry that my feelings are still so tender
The things they make me do, and make me say
I know in time that all things get better
But til then this may be the price you have to pay
Down deep inside, if I were in your shoes
I know in my heart, Id never do that to you
Its time to decide, what were gonna do
If loves gonna last, theres something I need from you
So easily trust can be broken

Yah Mo B There
By james ingram/michael mcdonald/rod temperton/quincy jones
Heavenly father watching us all
We take from each other and give nothing at all
Well its a dog-gone shame
But never too late for change
So if your luck runs low
Just reach out and call his name, his name
Chorus:
Yah mo be there (up and over)
Yah mo be there (up and over)
Yah mo be there (up and over)
Yah mo be there (up and over)
Whenever you call
Never be lonely lost in the night
Just run from the darkness
Looking for the light
cause its a long hard road
That leads to a brighter day (hey)
Dont let your heart grow cold
Just reach out and call his name, his name

To Make A Miracle
(McDonaldHarris)
How many would believe
That a lamb lost unto this world
Would be the victory that we need
As he lay beneath the shining star
Chosen before time began
Eternal love from our father
It takes a miracle
To the world it is impossible
It takes a miracle
To the mind it is illogical
[Chorus:]
A world in need
A heart in chains
That's all god needs
To make a miracle
A soul ashamed
A life of pain
That's all god needs
To make a miracle

What's Going On
Mother, mother
There's too many of you crying
Brother, brother, brother
There's far too many of you dying
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some lovin' here today - Ya
Father, father
We don't need to escalate
You see, war is not the answer
For only love can conquer hate
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some lovin' here today
Picket lines and picket signs
Don't punish me with brutality
Talk to me, so you can see
Oh, what's going on
What's going on
Ya, what's going on
Ah, what's going on
In the mean time

No Love To Be Found
By michael mcdonald and bernie chiaravalle
Down here on loves killin floor
I doubt if we could take much more
Here and now, (we) need to ask ourselves why
Weve come this far only to find
The price of happiness
We no longer pay
You gotta really love someone
Words alone are cheap
Its more of what you do
And less of what you say
Baby I dont wanna live
In some prison of promises
Baby look around at all this emptiness
There aint no love to be found
With a love like this
All broken and bruised
You just walk a way
With nothin to lose
Here and now, (weve) got to ask ourselves why

Baby I Need Your Loving
Baby, I need your loving
Baby, I need your loving
Although you're never near
Your voice I often hear
Another day, another night
I long to hold you tight
'cause I'm so lonely
Baby, I need your loving
Got to have all your loving
Baby, I need your loving
Got to have all your loving
Some say it's a sign of weakness
For a man to beg
Then weak I'd rather be
If it means having you to keep
'cause lately I've been losing sleep
Baby, I need your loving
Got to have all your loving
Baby, I need your loving
Got to have all your loving

No More Prayin
By michael mcdonald
Why do we look so hard?
Why do we ask so much?
In this world, its sad in a way
How time unblesses love, and faith is lost
Theres no more prayin for saving grace to find us
No more waiting for conscience to remind us
There are few things meaningless as words
At the point of no return
Why do we want so much?
Can we be satisfied?
In this life how many times
Can we pass the promised land, forever lost?
Theres no more prayin for saving grace to find us
No more waiting for conscience to remind us
There are few things meaningless as words
At the point of no return
We are lost between faith and hope
Between heart and mind, between love and pride
Eventually, the day will come

Tuesday Heartbreak
Tuesday heartbreak seem to be unfair,
Cause you say that you found another man,
Tuesday break heart, guess you just don't care,
Cause you found you another man
I want to be with you when you're all alone,
I want to be with you
when you feel you got another man,
You see, baby, it's all alright
I wanna be with you when the nightime comes,
I wanna be with you when the daytime comes,
I wanna stay, oh baby, lemme, baby with you
Tuesday heartbreak seem to be a drag,
When you know that you love her especially,
Catch up baby, catch up with my dreams,
Maybe than I can see you all the time
But I wanna be with you when the nightime comes
I wanna be with you when the daytime comes,
I wanna stay and never go away,
Oh baby, it's alright
I wanna be with you when the nightime comes,

All I Need
(michael mcdonald/tommy sims)
Like a river runnin to the sea
There must be a reason for all these shattered dreams
Starts with our believing and ends with our backs against the walls
If Im not careful I might convince myself
This is the way its always gonna be
Spend my whole life wonderin just what it means to survive
So I wonder, am I strong enough?
Do I have the strength I need to carry on?
All Im askin for is the path thats gonna lead me home
Chorus:
All I need is a shinin light an open door
Im askin for nothin more than a little hope
Another mornin strange as it seems
Here once again with all these broken things
That once hung in the balance between the extremes of my life
With the will of a runaway train
I took my chances time and time again
Leaving nothin but wreckage and pain behind
Chorus:
