We Could Be In Love

~ Lea Salonga with Brad Kane ~


Lea:
Be still my heart
Lately it's minding on it's own
It could go far and wide
Just to be near you

Brad:
Even the stars
Shine a bit bright I've noticed
When you're close to me

Lea:
Still it remains a mystery

Both:
Anyone who seen us
knows what's going on between us
It doesn't take a genius
To read between the lines
And it's not just wishful thinking
Or only me who's dreaming
I know what these are symptoms of
We could be in love

Lea:
I asked myself why
I sleep like a baby through the night
Maybe it helps to know
You'll be there tomorrow

Brad: Don't open my eyes
Lea: Ohhh
Brad: I'll wake from the spell I'm under
Brad: Makes me wonder how
Lea: Tell me how
Brad: I could live without you now

Both:
And what about the laughter
The happy ever after
Like voices of sweet angels
Calling out our names
And it's not just wishful thinking
Or only me who's dreaming
I know what these are symptoms of
We could be in love

Brad:
All my life
I have dreamed of this
But I could not see your face

Lea:
Don't ask why
Two such distant stars
Can fall right into place

Both:
Anyone who seen us
Knows what's going on between us
It doesn't take a genius
To read between the lines
And it's not just wishful thinking
Or only me who's dreaming
I know what these are symptoms of
We could be in love

Oh it doesn't take a genius
To know what these are symptoms of
We could be
Lea: Ohh
We could be
Brad: Could be in
We could be in love
we could be in love

A Little Fall of Rain

~ Lea Salonga and Michael Ball ~

Eponine:
Don't you fret, Monsieur Marius,
I don't feel any pain.
A little fall of rain
Can hardly hurt me now.
You're here, that's all I need to know.
And you will keep me safe,
And you will keep me close,
And rain will make the flowers grow.

Marius:
But you will live, 'Ponine,
Dear God above!
If I could heal your wounds with words of love!

Eponine:
Just hold me now, and let it be,
Shelter me,
Comfort me...

Marius:
You would live a hundred years
If I could show you how.
I won't desert you now

Eponine:
The rain can't hurt me now.
This rain will wash away what's past!
And you will keep me safe,
And you will keep me close,
I'll sleep in your embrace at last!
The rain that brings you here is heaven-blessed!
The skies begin to clear and I'm at rest.
A breath away from where you are,
I've come home from so far...

(In counterpoint)
Eponine: So don't you fret, Monsieur Marius,
Marius: Hush-a-bye, dear Eponine,
Eponine:I don't feel any pain.
Marius: You won't feel any pain.
Eponine:A little fall of rain
Marius: A little fall of rain
Eponine:Can hardly hurt me now.
Marius: Can hardly hurt you now.
Marius: I'm here,
Eponine: That's all I need to know.

Eponine: And you will keep me safe,
Marius: I will stay with you,
Eponine: And you will keep me close,
Marius: 'Til you are sleeping...
Eponine: And rain,
Marius: And rain,
Eponine: Will make the flowers...
Marius: Will make the flowers...grow.

Sun And Moon

~ Lea Salonga and Simon Bowan ~

Kim:
You are sunlight and I moon
Joined by the gods of fortune
Midnight and high noon
Sharing the sky
We have been blessed, you and I

Chris:
You are here like a mystery
I'm from a world that's so different
From all that you are
How in the light of one night
Did we come so far?

Kim: Outside day starts to dawn
Chris: Your moon still floats on high
Kim: The birds awake
Chris: The stars shine too
Kim: My hands still shake
Chris: I reach for you

Both: And we meet in the sky!

Kim
You are sunlight and I moon
Joined here
Bright'ning the sky
With the flame
Of love

Both:
Made of
Sunlight
Moonlight

Kim:
Tomorrow will be the full moon
I can bring friends to bless our room
With paper unicorns and perfume
If you want me to

Chris:
Unicorns? sure. . .

Broken

~ Seether featuring Amy Lee ~

I wanted you to know
I love the way you laugh
I wanna hold you high
And steal your pain away

I keep your photograph
I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high
And steal your pain

'Cause I'm broken
When I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right
When you're gone away

You're gone away,
You don't feel me anymore

The worst is over now
And we can breathe again
I wanna hold you high
And steal your pain away

There's so much left to learn
And no one left to fight
I wanna hold you high
And steal your pain

'Cause I'm broken
When I'm open
And I don't feel right
I am strong enough

'Cause I'm broken
When I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right
When you're gone away

'Cause I'm broken
When I'm open
And I don't feel right
I am strong enough

'Cause I'm broken
When I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right
When you're gone away

'Cause I'm broken
When I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right
When you're gone

You're gone away
You don't feel me anymore

~ Stonefree ~

The lights are now on us
The stage surrounds us
But it's you
It's you I remember

This maybe our best gig
The most well attended
But it's you
That I wanna be with

Cause whenever you're not here
There's this void I feel within
It's you
I crave and need

Cause I'm here and you're there
It's too much for me to bear
So hold on, soon I'll be home

The times that were upon
Gets too familiar
What I want
Is to be with you

Cause the last song syndrome
Is your voice I hear so clear
You said you'll wait
For me

Cause I'm here and you're there
It's too much for me to bear
So hold on, soon I'll be home

I miss the way you touch my face
I miss the way you say my name
I miss you, oh baby
I wish you're here with me

I'm here and you're there
It's too much for me to bear
So hold on

Cause I'm here and you're there
It's too much for me to bear
So hold on, soon I'll be home

Soon I'll be home
Soon I'll be home
Soon I'll be home
Soon I'll be home

We Are One Tonight

~ Switchfoot ~

Check!

Tonight!
Tonight!

I'll rise
I'll fall
I'll fail you all
We built these cities to stand so tall
We've lost our walls

I don't want to lose it, coming down
With the whole world upside-down
I don't have a soul to trust in now
With the whole world upside-down

We are one, tonight!
And we're singing it out!
We are one, tonight!
And we're dreaming out loud!
And the world is flawed
But these scars will heal
We are one, tonight!
Tonight!
Tonight!

Two eyes
One tongue
I've come
Undone
I'm no victim
I paid these dues
I came to lose

I don't want to fight about it now
With the whole world upside-down
I don't have a soul to trust in, now
With the whole world upside-down

We are one, tonight!
And we're singing it out!
We are one, tonight!
And we're dreaming out loud!
And the world is flawed
But these scars will heal
We are one, tonight!
Tonight!
Tonight!
Tonight!
Tonight!
Tonight!

I don't want to lose a common ground
With the whole world upside-down
I don't want to fight about it now
And the world was burning out

Let's slow the evening down
Slow it down
Slow down
Please slow down
Down
Down
The stars are comin' out!

We are one
We are one
We are one
We are one tonight

We are one tonight
And were singing it out
We are one tonight
And were dreaming out loud
And the world is flawed,
But these scars will heal!

Stars

~ Switchfoot ~

Maybe I've been the problem,
Maybe I'm the one to blame
But even when I turn it off and blame myself,
The outcome feels the same

I've been thinkin maybe I've been partly cloudy,
Maybe I'm the chance of rain
Maybe I'm overcast, and
Maybe all my lucks washed down the drain

I've been thinking 'bout everyone,
Everyone you look so lonely

But when I look at the stars,
When I look at the stars,
When I look at the stars
I see someone else
When I look at the stars,
The stars, I feel like myself

Stars lookin at our planet
Watching entropy and pain
And maybe start to wonder how
The chaos in our lives could pass as sane
I've been thinking bout the meaning of resistance,
Of a hope beyond my own
And suddenly the infinite and
Penitent begin to look like home

I've been thinking bout everyone,
Everyone you look so empty

But when I look at the stars,
When I look at the stars,
When I look at the stars
I see someone else
When I look at the stars,
The stars, I feel like myself

Everyone, everyone you feel so lonely
Everyone, yeah everyone you feel so empty

When I look at the stars,
When I look at the stars,
When I look at the stars
I feel like myself
When I look at the stars,
The stars, I see someone...

Only Hope

~ Switchfoot ~

There's a song that's inside of my soul
It's the one that I've tried to write
over and over again
I'm awake and in the infinite cold
But You sing to me over
and over and over again

So I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands
And pray to be only Yours
I pray to be only Yours
I know now You're my only hope

Sing to me of the song of the stars
Of Your galaxy dancing and laughing
and laughing again
When it feels like my dreams are so far
Sing to me of the plans that
You have for me over again

And I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands
And pray to be only Yours
I pray to be only Yours
I know now You're my only hope

I give You my apathy
I'm giving You all of me
I want Your symphony
Singing in all that I am
At the top of my lungs
I'm giving it back

And I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands
And pray to be only Yours
I pray to be only Yours
I pray to be only Yours
I know now You're my only hope

from the movie: A Walk To Remember

You

~ Switchfoot ~

There's always something
In the way
There's always something
Getting through
But it's not me
It's You
It's You

Sometime's ignorance
Rings true
But hope is not in
What I know
Not in me
It's in You
It's in You

It's all I know
It's all I know
It's all I know

And I find peace
When I'm confused
I find hope when
I'm let down
Not in me
It's in You
It's in You

I hope to lose myself
For good
I hope to find it in the end
Not in me
In You
In you

It's all I know
It's all I know
It's all I know
In you
In you
It's in You

There's always something
In the way
There's always something
Getting through
But it's not me
It's You
It's You
It's You (to fade)

Learning To Breathe

~ Switchfoot ~

Hello, good morning, how you do?
What makes your risin' sun so new?
I could use a fresh beginning too
All of my regrets are nothing new
So this is a way, that I say I need You
This is a way
This is a way

That I'm learning to breathe
I'm learning to crawl
I'm finding that you and you alone can break my fall
I'm living again, awake and alive
I'm dying to breathe in these abundant skies

Hello, good morning, how you been?
Yesterday left my head kicked in
I never, never thought that
I would fall like that
Never knew that I could hurt this bad

I'm learning to breathe
I'm learning to crawl
I'm finding that you and you alone can break my fall
I'm living again, awake and alive
I'm dying to breathe in these abundant skies
These abundant skies
Yeah, abundant skies, yeah

This is a way that I say I need You
This is a way that I say I love You
This is a way that I say I'm Yours
This is a way
This a the way that

I'm learning to breathe
I'm learning to crawl
I'm finding that you and you alone can break my fall
I'm living again, awake and alive
I'm dying to breathe in these abundant skies
Yes I'm dying to breathe in these abundant skies
These abundant skies, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm learning to breathe
I'm dying to breathe in these abundant skies
Hello, good morning, how you doin'?

Twenty-Four

~ Switchfoot ~

Twenty four oceans
Twenty four skies
Twenty four failures
Twenty four tries
Twenty four finds me
In twenty-fourth place
Twenty four drop outs
At the end of the day
Life is not what I thought it was
Twenty four hours ago
Still I'm singing Spirit take me up in arms with You
And I'm not who I thought I was twenty four hours ago
Still I'm singing Spirit take me up in arms with You

Twenty four reasons to admit that I'm wrong
With all my excuses still twenty four strong

See I'm not copping out not copping out not copping out
When You're raising the dead in me
Oh, oh I am the second man
Oh, oh I am the second man now
Oh, oh I am the second man now

And You're raising these twenty four voices
With twenty four hearts
With all of my symphonies
In twenty four parts
But I want to be one today
Centered and true

I'm singing Spirit take me up in arms with You
You're raising the dead in me
Oh, oh I am the second man
Oh, oh I am the second man now
Oh, oh I am the second man now
And You're raising the dead in me, yeah

I want to see miracles, see the world change
Wrestled the angel, for more than a name
For more than a feeling
For more than a cause

I'm singing Spirit take me up in arms with You
And You're raising the dead in me

Twenty four oceans
With twenty four hearts
With all of my symphonies
In twenty four parts.
Life is not what I thought it was
Twenty four hours ago
Still I'm singing Spirit take me up in arms with You
And I'm not copping out.
Not copping out.
Not copping out.

Beautiful Letdown

~ Switchfoot ~

it was a beautiful let down
when i crashed and burned
when i found myself alone unknown and hurt
it was a beautiful let down
the day i knew
that all the riches this world had to offer me
would never do

in a world full of bitter pain and bitter doubt
i was trying so hard to fit in, fit in,
until i found out
i don't belong here
i don't belong here
I will carry a cross and a song where I don't belong
but i don't belong

it was a beautiful let down
when you found me here
yeah for once in a blue moon i see everything clear
i'll be a beautiful let down
that's what i'll forever be
and though it may cost my soul
i'll sing for free

we're still chasin our tails and the rising sun
in our dark water planet
still spins in a race
where no one wins and no one's one

I don't belong here
I don't belong here
i'm gonna set sight and set sail for the kingdom come
Your kingdom come
won't you let me down yeah
let my foolish proud
forever let me down

easy living, not much like your name
easy dying, you look just about the same
won't you please take me off your list
easy living please come on and let me down

we are a beautiful let down,
painfully uncool,
the church of the dropouts
and losers and sinners and failures and the fools
oh what a beautiful let down
are we salt in the wound
let us sing one true tune

I don't belong here
I don't belong here
I don't belong here
Feels like I don't belong here

Let me down
Let me down
Feels like I'm let down
Let me down.
Cuz I don't belong here
Please
Won't you let me down?

Redemption

~ Switchfoot ~

Four A.M. two hours to go
I'm wearing out a lonely glow.
I miss you more than I could know.
Here I am, here I am,
won't you get me?

I've got my hands on redemption's side
Whose scars are bigger than these doubts of mine.
I'll fit all of these monstrosities inside
and I'll come alive.

With my fist down at your feet
I was running out of mysteries
Insecure and incomplete, here I am, here I am,
won't you get me?

I've got my hands on redemption's side
Whose scars are bigger than these doubts of mine.
I'll fit all of these monstrosities inside
and I'll come alive.

My fears have worn me out
My fears have worn me out
My fears have worn me, worn me.

I've got my hands on redemption's side
Whose scars are bigger than these doubts of mine.
I'll fit all of these monstrosities inside
and I'll come alive.

I've got my hands on redemption's side
Whose scars are bigger than these doubts of mine.
I'll fit all of these monstrosities inside
and I'll come alive.

On Fire

~ Swicthfoot ~

They tell you where you need to go
They tell you when you'll need to leave
They tell you what you need to know
They tell you who you need to be

But everything inside you knows
There's more than what you've heard
There's so much more than empty conversations
Filled with empty words

And you're on fire
When He's near you
You're on fire
When He speaks
You're on fire
Burning at these mysteries

Give me one more time around
Give me one more chance to see, yeah
Give me everything You are
Give me one more chance to be... (near You)

With everything inside me looks like
Everything I hate
You are the hope I have for change
You are the only chance I'll take

When I'm on fire
When You're near me
I'm on fire
When You speak
And I'm on fire
Burning at these mysteries
These mysteries...

I'm standing on the edge of me
I'm standing on the edge of me
I'm standing on the edge of me
I'm standing on the edge of everything
I've never been before.
And I've been standing on the edge of me
Standing on the edge

And I'm on fire
When You're near me
I'm on fire
When You speak(Yea)
I'm on fire
Burning at these mysteries...
these mysteries...
these mysteries
Ah you're the mystery
You're the mystery

More Than Fine

~ Switchfoot ~

When I wake in the morning,
I want to blow into pieces.
I want more than just ok, more than just ok.
When I'm up with the sunrise
I want more than just blue skies.
I want more than just ok, more than just ok.

I'm not giving up, giving up, not giving up now.
I'm not giving up, giving up, not backing down.

More than fine, more than bent on getting by.
More than fine, more than just ok.

When I'm wet with the sunshine.
I want more than just a good time.
I want more than just ok, more than just ok.

I'm not giving up, giving up, not giving up now.
I'm not giving up, giving up, not selling out.

More than fine, more than bent on getting by.
More than fine, more than just ok.

More than fine, more than bent on getting by.
More than fine, more than just ok.

More than oceans away from the dawn.
More than oceans away from the dawn.
More than oceans away from who we are

Meant To Live

~ Switchfoot ~

Fumbling his confidence
And wondering why the world has passed him by
Hoping that he's meant for more than arguments
And failed attempts to fly, fly

We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside
Somewhere we live inside
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside

Dreaming about Providence
And whether mice or men have second tries
Maybe we've been livin with our eyes half open
Maybe we're bent and broken, broken, oh

We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside
Somewhere we live inside
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside

We want more than this world's got to offer
We want more than this world's got to offer
We want more than the wars of our fathers
And everything inside screams for second life, yeah

We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live
We were meant to live

Gone

~ Switchfoot ~

She told him she'd rather fix her makeup
than try to fix what's going on
but the problem keeps on calling
even with the cellphone gone
she told him that she believes in living
bigger than she's living now
but her world keeps spinning backwards
and upsidedown
don't say so long, and throw yourself wrong
don't spend today away
cause today will soon be

gone, like yesterday is gone,
like history is gone,
just trying to prove me wrong
and pretend like you're immortal

she said he said live like no tomorrow
every day we borrow
brings us one step closer to the edge (infinity)
where's your treasure, where's your hope
if you get the world and lose your soul
she pretends like she pretends like she's immortal
don't say so long
you're not that far gone
this could be your big chance to makeup
today will soon be

gone, like yeterday is gone,
like history is gone,
the world keeps spinning on,
your going going gone,
like summer break is gone,
like saturday is gone
just trying to prove me wrong
you pretend like your immortal your immortal

we are not infinite
we are not permanent
nothing is immediate
we're so confident
in our accomplishments
look at our decadence

gone, like Frank Sinatra
like Elvis and his mom
like AL Pacino's cash nothing lasts in this life
my highschool dreams are gone
my childhood sweets are gone
life is a day that doesn't last for long

life is more than money
time was never money
time was never cash,
life is still more than girls
life is more than hundred dollar bills
and roto-tom fills
life's more than fame and rock and roll and thrills
all the riches of the kingsend up in wills
we got information in the information age
but do we know what life is
outside of our convenient Lexus cages

she said he said live like no tomorrow
every moment that we borrow
brings us closer to the God who's not short of cash
hey Bono i'm glad you asked
life is still worth living, life is still worth living
life is more than who you are

Dare You To Move

~ Switchfoot ~

Welcome to the planet
Welcome to existence
Everyone's here
Everyone's here

Everybody's watching you now
Everybody waits for you now
What happens next
What happens next

I dare you to move
I dare you to move
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move
I dare you to move
Like today never happened
Today never happened before

Welcome to the fallout
Welcome to resistance
The tension is here
Tension is here
Between who you are and who you could be
Between how it is and how it should be, yeah

I dare you to move
I dare you to move
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move
I dare you to move
Like today never happen
Today never happened

Maybe redemption has stories to tell
Maybe forgiveness is right where you fell
Where can you run to escape from yourself?
Where you gonna go?Where you gonna go?
Salvation is here

I dare you to move
I dare you to move
I dare you to lift yourself
Lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move
I dare you to move
Like today never happened
Today never happened
Today never happened

Adding To The Noise

~ Swicthfoot ~

What's it gonna take
to slow us down
to let the silence spin us around?
What's it gonna take
to drop this town?
We've been spinning at the speed of sound.

Stepping out of those convenience stores
what could we want but more more more?
From the third world
to the corporate core
we are the symphony of modern humanity

If we're adding to the noise
turn off this song
If we're adding to the noise
turn off your stereo, radio, video

I dont know
what they're gonna think of next
genetic engineers of the most high tech
A couple new ways to fall into debt
I'm a nervous wreck but I'll bet
that that T.V. set
tells us what we've wanted to hear
But none of these sound bites
are coming in clear
From the third world to the corporate ear
we are the symphony of modern humanity. Yeah

If we're adding to the noise
