Some songs...

My broken heart is on its own
Wanting someone to care but they don't
My broken heart doesn't know what to feel
Or what it will take for it to heal

I'm alone again,
And so I look for a friend
Who sees deep into my pain
And helps me heal again

My broken heart is on its own
Surrounded by friends still all alone
My broken heart is full of an ache
And I never know how much it can take

Alone, in need of a friend,
One who sees who I am
An stands, by my side,
And all my pain won't deny

My broken heart is on its own
In search of place to call its home
My broken heart just wants to be right
And needs more love to get through the night

My broken heart is on its own

My broken heart, my broken heart, my broken heart
My broken heart, my broken heart, my broken heart
My broken, broken heart, my broken heart, my broken heart
My broken heart, my broken heart, my broken heart
My broken heart, my broken heart, my broken heart
My broken, broken heart, my broken heart, my broken heart
My broken heart, my broken heart, my broken heart
My broken heart

We had a life, we had a love
We were the best of friends Then time went by and now I cry
I didn't see the end

Where did you go?
You left me standing here alone
I need to know
Why I'm afraid to let you go

We took a walk on a well worn path
We didn't seem to care
When I looked up you weren't around
You vanished like the air

Where did you go?
You left me standing here alone
I need to know
Why I'm afraid to let you go

I need to know
I need to know

I've never felt such loneliness
'Cause you were always there
But now you're gone, just moved along
Leaving my pain to bear

Where did you go?
You left me standing here alone
I need to know
Why I'm afraid to let you go

These old wounds keep opening
Catching me off my guard
'Cause I went off and left them
Just sitting there in my yard
Like some worn out old pickup
Whose frame began to rust
A thing I didn't need
In a ride I didn't trust

Old wounds, living inside of me
Old wounds, they never let me be
Old wounds, what is it they reveal
Old wounds, will they ever heal

And there they sit out in the weeds
Among good company
With all the things I tossed out
And didn't care to see
But these old wounds just haven't healed
As you were right to say
They're sitting in the backyard
Where children want to play

Old wounds, living inside of me
Old wounds, they never let me be
Old wounds, what is it they reveal
Old wounds, will they ever heal

Maybe it's time to take a look
And see just what is there
'Cause what I left for broken
May only need repair
And I know what I don't look for
I never hope to find
And that will always keep me
From having peace of mind

Old wounds, when I look I see
Old wounds, they never let me be
Old wounds, what is it they reveal
Old wounds, will they ever heal

Old wounds, when I look I see
Old wounds, I want to be free from
Old wounds, I just don't want to feel
Old wounds, it's time for them to heal

Wherever you go tonight I want to be with you
And under the moonlight I always want to say I love you

Hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on to me

Wherever I go today I hope that you are there
And standing by my side you tell me that you always care

Hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on to me

Whenever you call my name I know that I will hear
Because our hearts are one even though we are not near

Hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on to me

Hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on to me
Hold on to me

I went to those halls and thought they were mine
The flags and the statues, the portraits and signs
I stood there and looked in silent awe
Thinking of all who had seen what I saw
Those figures from history and those from today
Triumphantly building, as if out of clay. This idea of freedom for all who believe
No greater idea could I have conceived

I went to those halls and thought they were mine

I looked at those halls with new eyes today
With horror and shock, sadness and dismay
What I saw were not heroes but confused frightened men
Who heard lies as their truth, believed it and then. Spoke with a voice of anger and hate
Urged on by false innocence of deceitful debate
They raged and destroyed with actions and words
Until finally most of America heard

I went to those halls and thought they were mine

The things they were told were not innocent lies
But poison to truth as it slowly dies
Repeated by those who claim to be friends
Repeated right up to that bitter end
I looked at those halls with eyes brown and black
And saw things I hadn’t until the attack
I saw a system that I thought was done
Was still an idea which had only begun

I went to those halls and thought they were mine

My privilege revealed until I could see. Those halls were still yearning for all to be free
They called on us all to become United
They called for true freedom to be incited
They called out for justice, for Native and Black
They called out and said we must have their back
They called to believers and people of faith
They called every culture and called every race
They called in a voice so pure and so strong
They called out to us that we all belong

I went to those halls and thought they were mine
To share with all others this idea divine

I'm looking at a bridge too far and I can't see the other side
I'm counting on my hope 'til I am taken for a ride
No matter what I do it's hard to know what's right
So I'm holding onto love to get me through the night

On a bridge too far
On a bridge too far

Here we go again, can you help me just a bit?
He's fallen off again and he can't get out of it
Well in his mess isn't where I want to be
So I say a little prayer for my serenity

On a bridge too far
On a bridge too far

Could be dope, alcohol, or coke, or speed
Could be almost anything or it could just be weed
All it takes is for him to want some more
Now he's on the other side as I look across the shore

On a bridge too far
On a bridge too far

He's on a bridge too far
She's on a bridge too far
They're on a bridge too far

It's all the same in the cities and the towns
Someone who should be up is always falling down
She didn't want to be caught in this disease
So she tries another time to get herself free

On a bridge too far
On a bridge too far
On a bridge too far
On a bridge too far

From my true self I wandered, I wandered
From my true self I wandered away
From my true self I wandered, I wandered
From my true self I wandered away

From my true home I wandered, I wandered
From my true home I wandered away
From my true home I wandered, I wandered
From my true home I wandered away

And through the night I wandered, I wandered
And through the night I wandered away
And through the night I wandered, I wandered
And through the night I wandered away

When will I find it I"m asking, I'm asking
When will I find it I ask of the day
When will I find it I"m asking, I'm asking
When will I find it I ask of the day

From my true self I wandered, I wandered
From my true self I wandered away

From my true home I wandered, I wandered
From my true home I wandered away

And through the night I wandered, I wandered
And through the night I wandered away

When will I find it I"m asking, I'm asking
When will I find it I ask of the day
When will I find it I"m asking, I'm asking
When will I find it I ask of the day

When I'm feeling down, down so low
Don't know what's up, but here's what I know
Yes there is somewhere I can go
Well I know

Out into the country where I can breathe the air
Ain't much is happening, but I don't care
There is a place where I belong
So I'm going down to Stevens Pond

You can come and see me, bring all your friends
Just keep on going where the pavement ends
Hurry up and get here where you can go
Real slow

You can bring a sitar and you will see
It doesn't matter when in Liberty
You can bring a guitar and sing along
When you're going down to Stevens Pond

I'm going left, uh huh
I'm going right, right where I belong
I'm going up, up that country road
Yes I'm going down to Stevens Pond

You can drink a Moxie, you can have a beer
You can sip on Siraz 'til you disappear
Just find the fire and pull up a chair
If you care

It ain't no mystery, it ain't no thing
Just keep it simple and see what life brings
Now listen to me and you will know
You should go down to Stevens Pond

I'm going left, uh huh
I'm going right, right where I belong
I'm going up, up that country road
Yes I'm going down to Stevens Pond

Well I'm going down to Stevens Pond
Well I'm going down to Stevens Pond

Don't want to be living the way I do
Just want to be happy in this life with you
Don't need everything to fill my home
A piece of mind is all I need to own

Enough
Enough
Enough, isn't that enough
Enough
Enough
Enough

Buy endless trinkets adorned in gold
This is the story that I've been told
Don't want all these things to feed my fear
'Cause what I need is already here

Enough (enough)
Enough (enough)
Enough (Isn't that enough)
Isn't that enough (enough)
Enough (enough)
Enough (isn't that enough)

There are people in the world who have nothing
And don't know what to do
There are others in the world with everything
Who take from me and you

I see all the hungry, I see the poor
I see the needy come to my shore
Don't show me more things that I can buy
Jut show me love before I die

Enough (enough)
Enough (enough)
Enough (Isn't that enough)
Isn't that enough? (enough)
Enough (enough)
Enough (isn't that enough)

Don't I have enough?
Enough (enough)
Enough (enough)
Whoa, yes I have enough
Oh yes
Yes I have enough Enough (enough)
Enough (enough)
Whoa, yes I have enough

Don't we have enough
We have enough
Enough (enough)
Enough (enough)
We have enough
Yes we have enough
Enough (enough)
Enough (enough)
We have, we have, we have enough
Oh oh

Didn't want to listen but you wouldn't let me go
'Cause you call yourself a friend
Didn't want to hear the things you thought that I should know
But now I"m coming around again

You want to know
Just where we stand
Well so do I
So I'm coming around

Didn't want to stay so I just walked right out the door
Got some fences I should mend
Didn't stop to think about those things you said before
But now I'm coming around again

You want to know
Just where we stand
Well so do I
So I'm coming around

I'm coming around
I'm coming around
Yes I'm coming around

I'm coming, I'm coming, I'm coming around
Yes I'm coming around
I'm coming around

You used to come to me
Whenever I would let you
But now you must have grown
Out of the one I once knew
Or I have changed in ways
I never would have thought true
So here I walk alone
As you do what you must do

Whenever you are with me
In my mind
I bring you closer
And all is fine

You used to come to me
And sing the song of your heart
But now the melody
From the words is apart
But when I hear the song
Echo in the valley
I'd like to sing along
If I could find the right key

Whenever you are with me
In my mind
I bring you closer
And all is fine

You used to come to me
And make my soul come alive
But now I seem to leave
Before you even arrive
So how can I become
The one you have in your dreams
When all the things we are
Become as what they would seem

Whenever you are with me
In my mind
I bring you closer
And all is fine

You used to come to me
Whenever I would let you

If you want a friend that you can count on
Gotta be that way, be that way
If you want a friend that you can count on
Gotta be that way, be that way

If you want a love just to come and find you
Give it away, give it away
If you want a love just to come and find you
Give it away, gotta give it away hey hey

If you want a friend that will be there tomorrow
Better be there today, be there today
If you want a friend that will be there tomorrow
Better be there today, be there today

If you want a love just to come and find you
Give it away, give it away
If you want a love just to come and find you
Give it away, gotta give it away hey hey

When you're drowning in cold and dark
All alone and confused
Look around you will see someone
And she might just need you
Hear me saying now

When you got friends and they really need
You gotta hear what they say, hear what they say
When you got friends and they really need
You gotta hear what they say, hear what they say

If you want a love just to come and find you
Give it away, give it away
If you want a love just to come and find you
Give it away, gotta give it away hey hey

Said, if you want a love just to come and find you
Give it away, give it away
If you want a love just to come and find you
Give it away, gotta give it away hey hey

In this hard life I need a friend
Someone who'll take me to the end
'Cause when the road gets dark and cold
I need a will that will not bend

Now I'm up the creek without a paddle
And I keep on drifting 'way from you
Give me one more try to make things right
'Cause that is all I want to do

And when that rock rolled on down the hill
You'd be right there for me until
I didn't try, I don't know why
Sometimes I think I never will

Now I'm up the creek without a paddle
And I keep on drifting 'way from you
Give me one more try to make things right
'Cause that is all I want to do

We've seen some hard times
More than a few
If we keep trying
We'll make it through

As I get older, you'd think I'd know
That there is so much more to learn
But here I am, and there you are
And we just sing this song again

Now I'm up the creek without a paddle
And I keep on drifting 'way from you
Give me one more try to make things right
'Cause that is all I want to do

Yes I'm up the creek without a paddle
And I keep on drifting 'way from you
Give me one more try to make things right
'Cause that is all I want to do

Give me one more try to make things right
'Cause that is all I want to do
Yes that is all I want to do
'Cause that is all I want to do

When I look over the mountain
And my life soars around me
Then I know I'm not alone here
For your face is what I see

Now my friend do not forget me
Or forget all I have done
When we join together in spirit
We can see what we've become

When we come into the spirit
And we move over the sea
We will know the time has come now
We will know where we should be

When I look over the mountain
And my life soars around me
Then I know I'm not alone here
For your face is what I see

If truth be this arrow
Let my love be the bow
Let the quiver be my thoughts
Ever seeking understanding

Let this arrow fly
Cleaving misunderstanding and hate
Piercing hearts with silent love
Entering wounds in need of healing

And as this arrow flies
Held aloft by winds of hope
Let it resist the gravity
Of all my good intentions

If truth be this arrow
Let my love be the bow
