when the wheels of life they turn
it can get hard sometimes
maybe it’s something you’ve yet to learn
i’ll do my best to help you find
that light that shined inside
we’re gonna light that fire
we’re gonna make it burn real bright
its time to take your turn
let love guide you…..
take my hand and trust
don’t let go of this touch
everybody need someone sometime
in life….
take my hand and trust
don’t let go of this love
everybody need someone sometime
to find
to find themselves
when you need a friend to lean on
don’t you hesitate
to share the weight with me
and I will do my best….
let love guide you….
CHORUS…
BRIDGE:
put your heart before your head
and let love guide you through…….
take my hand and trust
don’t let go of this touch
everybody need someone sometime
in life….
take my hand and trust
don’t let go of this love
everybody need someone sometime
to find
to find themselves
to feel safe
to believe in love
to find their place

Hide. Taken by force
Fitted withe disguise
Over Firth of Forth
It’s hard looking down
When you’re this far North
Where everyone you know
Is taken in due course
And Surprise!
It’s not what you think
The miracle of Skye
The Northern Light
Rise. Dust yourself off
The Charity and Faith
Have finally paid off
You’re taking no grief
For the way that you are
Live without regret
Shooting for the Stars
And Surprise!
It’s never what you think
The miracle of Skye
The Northern Light
The Northern Light
The Northern Light
The Northern Light
Drive. Way to far
Don’t look back
It’s only scars
And give all that you can
Finally be free
Tear off the chains
Be all you can be
And Surprise!
It’s always what you think
The miracle of Skye
The Northern Light
The Northern Light
The Northern Light
The Northern Light
The Northern Light
The Northern Light
The Northern Light
The Northern Light

TIME CAN MEND THIS
BROKEN HOPE AND
LAUNCH THIS ENDLESS KISS
WORDS WERE SPOKEN
HEARTS WERE BROKEN
TIME CAN FIND WHAT WE MISSED
WADE INTO THE WATER
WHERE THE SEA MEETS THE SKY
HOLD ON JUST A LITTLE LONGER
WE\LL FIND YOU AND I
WHEN PATIENCE ESCAPES ME
I KEEP PACING
ALL THESE TERRIBLE NIGHTS
NO ONE HOLDS ME
THE ANXIOUS CHOKING
TEARS ME UP INSIDE
I CLOSE MY EYES AND DREAM
WHERE THE SEA MEETS THE SKY
I CALL ON YOU TO MEET
WHERE THE SEA MEETS THE SKY
WADE INTO THE WATER, INTO THE WATER
WHERE THE SEA MEETS THE SKY
I CLOSE MY EYES AND DREAM
WHERE THE SEA MEETS THE SKY
I CALL ON YOU TO MEET
WHERE THE SEA MEETS THE SKY
WADE INTO THE WATER, INTO THE WATER
WHERE THE SEA MEETS THE SKY
TIME CAN MEND THIS
BROKEN HOPE AND
LAUNCH THIS ENDLESS KISS
WORDS WERE SPOKEN
HEARTS WERE BROKEN
TIME CAN FIND WHAT WE MISSED

While I'm Pretendin'

Saturday has come and gone, another weekend all alone
Wishing you were here next to me
Sunday, He’s on the rise
The tears have left these desert eyes
Well, maybe, that’s the way it’s supposed to be
While I’m pretendin’
That maybe we are mendin’
I’m chaining up a person that should be free
While I’m out shopping
worn out on the talking
I still grab the things you used to need
When I’m at the checkout
The irony of “checkout”
Well, it’s not completely lost on me
While I’m pretendin’
That maybe we are mendin’
I’m chaining up a person that should be free
While I’m pretendin’
That maybe we are mendin’
I’ve gotta let you go, let you be
I was here and you weren’t there
another 1000 mile stare
My stomach churning like the sea
Wondering if your happy now
Wish I could believe somehow
That you and I were never meant to be
While I’m pretendin’
That maybe we are mendin’
I’m chaining up a person that should be free
While I’m pretendin’
That maybe we are mendin’
I’ve gotta let you go, let you be
