And it seems like you can’t work them out,
You’ll fix them I know it.

Back Where We Began
02:48
|

|
Had so many chances, Lots of circumstances,
That were hard to figure out.
Heard a lot of laughter, Found what we were after,
That is what it’s all about.
We may go on doing what we can.
As we move on, the place to start,
Is back where we began.
Traveled on life’s highway, Seems we did it my way,
It wasn’t always smooth. (echo)
Traveled lots of miles, Managed a few smiles,
But there’s no time left to lose. (echo)
We may go on, and hope we understand.
Before we start, the way to go,
Is back where we began.
Have to take a stand,
Everywhere we can, oh, yeah.
Something we should know,
No matter where we go, oh, yeah.
Everything we do, Everyone we see,
Everything we plan,
Right here, today, get back,
Back where we began.
Saw a lot of action, positive reactions,
That surprised me lots of times. (echo)
If we keep a cool head, then we won’t be misled,
The outcome will be fine. (echo)
We may go on making lots of plans.
Before we start, the way to go,
Is back where we began.
The way to go,
Is back where we began.
The way to go,
Is back where we began.

Where Did She Go?
03:02
|

|
Where did she go? I don’t know.
She just walked out on me.
And just like that, she left me flat.
I’ve got to know. What did she think of us?
And all the feelings that we had.
Why did she go? I don’t know.
Did she believe their lies?
Without a word she disappeared.
I’ve got to know. It made feel so low.
I’m not so sure I’ll love again.
Smiles and laughter,
I thought, we were fine.
Then one sad day,
She was gone, and I was blind.
Where did she go? I don’t know.
She left and broke my heart.
Why didn’t I see it in time?
I’ve got to know. What did I do to make her go?
If I knew that I’d start again.
Smiles and laughter,
I thought, we were fine.
Then one sad day,
She was gone, and I was blind.
Why did she go? I don’t know.
Did she believe their lies?
Why didn’t I see it in time?
I’ve got to know. It made feel so low.
I’ve got to know. It made feel so low.
Where did she go?

Hole In My Heart
02:10
|

|
I remember when I think about us,
Love that we once shared and how it fell apart.
When you said goodbye you know it left,
A hole in my heart.
I thought time would heal all the heartache.
When I try so hard to make a brand new start,
Thoughts of you come back to open up,
This hole in my heart.
We only have one life to live.
I have so much love to give.
If it's not for you and me, you know, I’ll go.
I don’t know if you are thinking of me,
Love that we once shared and how it fell apart.
I can’t seem to find a way to fill,
The hole in my heart.
I thought time would heal all the heartache.
When I try so hard to make a brand new start,
Thoughts of you come back to open up,
This hole in my heart.
We only have one life to live.
I have so much love to give.
If it's not for you and me, you know, I’ll go.
Please don’t think about me, I’ll be just fine.
Even though forgetting you is oh so hard.
Now it’s time to find someone to fill,
This hole in my heart.
This hole in my heart.
This hole in my heart.

If it’s love don’t try to fight it.
It’s not hard to understand.
You can trust me now and take my hand.
There are many ways to say it,
Only one that works for me.
Open up your eyes so you can see.
If it’s love just let it in,
Please don’t fight and let’s begin,
Right now. There’s no time like today.
And I know you want it now,
Come with me I’ll show you how,
To love, and take the chance to say.
If it’s love you’re bound to know it.
It’s an easy thing to see.
You can trust and come along with me.
Instrumental:
If it’s love just let it in,
Please don’t fight and let’s begin,
Right now. There’s no time like today.
And I know you want it now,
Come with me I’ll show you how,
To love, and take the chance to say.
If it’s love your heart is in it.
It’s the easy way to be.
Let me show you so that you can see.
There are many ways to say it,
Only one that works for me.
Open up your eyes so you can see.
So you can see.
So you can see.

Up In The Air
02:58
|

Up in the air, I want to be there.
Up in the air, without a care.
When I see all the birds fly free,
How they glide and play,
I could watch all day,
Wishing it were me.
Floating high as the clouds go by,
Over deep blue seas.
Somewhere I should be,
Up above the waves.
Up in the air, I want to be there.
Up in the air, without a care.
There’ll be nothing to stop me,
High up over the city lights,
Up where all of my problems,
Seem so small.
In my dreams I can fly so high,
And look down to see,
Things that limit me,
As I float above.
Up in the air, I want to be there.
Up in the air, without a care.
There’ll be nothing to stop me,
High up over the city lights,
Up where all of my problems,
Seem so small.
People tell me angels fly,
I’m sure I don’t know,
Cause I’m down below,
Wishing I could soar.
Up in the air, I want to be there.
Up in the air, without a care.
Up in the air, without a care.
Up in the air…

I don’t want to reach a ripe old age,
But I don’t think I want to die.
I know that I’m not getting any younger.
And I don’t want to say goodbye.
I guess I’m a lot like Peter Pan,
The fact is I just won’t grow up.
And though I tell myself I’m not a fairy,
I still wish I could make time stop.
I don’t want to get old, I don’t have to be told,
Over and over and over again, I’ll be much wiser by then.
I’m running away, Yes, I’m running away.
I feel so helpless, I’m running away.
Guitar solo:
I don’t want to get old, I don’t have to be told,
Over and over and over again, I’ll be much wiser by then.
I’m running away, Yes, I’m running away.
I feel so helpless, I’m running away.
I don’t want to reach a ripe old age,
But I don’t think I want to die.
I know that I’m not getting any younger.
And I don’t want to say goodbye.
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye.
