LYRICS
"Longer"
Dan Fogelberg
Longer than there’ve been fishes in the ocean,
Higher than any bird ever flew
Longer than there’ve been stars up in the heavens,
I’ve been in love with you
Stronger than any mountain cathedral,
Truer than any tree ever grew
Deeper than any forest primeval,
I am in love with you
I’ll bring fire in the winters,
You’ll send showers in the spring
We’ll fly through the falls and summers with love on our wings
Through the years, as the fires starts to mellow,
burning lines in the book of our lives
As the binding cracks and the pages start to yellow,
I’ll be in love with you
I’ve been in love with you,
I am in love with you
"That's the Way Loves Goes"
music by Alan Jackson
lyrics by Lefty Frizzell and Whitey Shafer
I've been throwing horseshoes over my left shoulder
I've spent most all my life searching for that four-leafed clover
Yet you ran with me chasing my rainbows
Honey, I love you too and that's the way love goes
That's the way love goes, babe, that's the music God made
For all the world to sing, it's never old it grows
Losing makes me sorry, you say "Honey, now don't worry"
Don't you know I love you too and that's the way love goes
"Unchained Melody"
music by Alex North
lyrics by Hy Zaret
Oh, my love
My darling
I've hungered for your touch
A long, lonely time
And time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine?
I need your love
I need your love
God speed your love to me
Lonely rivers flow to the sea, to the sea
To the open arms of the sea
Yes, lonely rivers sigh, "Wait for me, wait for me
I'll be coming home, wait for me"
"The Wind Beneath My Wings"
by Larry Henley & Jeff Silbar
It must have been cold there in my shadow,
To never have sunlight on your face.
You’ve been content to let me shine,
You always walked the step behind.
I was the one with all the glory,
While you were the one with all the strength.
Only a face without a name,
I never once heard you complain.
Did you ever know that you’re my hero,
And everything I would like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle,
‘Cause you are the wind beneath my wings.
It might have appeared to go unnoticed
That I’ve got it all here in my heart.
I want you to know I know the truth,
I would be nothing without you.
Did you ever know that you’re my hero,
And everything I would like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle,
Cause you are the wind beneath my wings.
