1.  NOW OR NEVER:

Verse

This is the time for us to start

Writing our history

This is the time we stand apart

We’re breaking free

Chorus

We’re walking away from what we know

Taking a chance on where we wanna go

Maybe it’s hard for us to see

All of the things we someday wanna be

There’s no surrender

And we’re never turning back

Though we will remember

Everything we had

There’s no more waiting on forever

It’s now or never

Verse

This is the time we say goodbye

To all of our present fears

Here in this place we somehow find

That they disappear

Bridge 

Just give your everything

This is what you’re made for

We can conquer anything

Chorus

2.  HEAVEN:

Verse

I could stay like this forever

Wrapped up safely in your arms

Why would I ever want to leave - I

Won’t let go

Verse

The world is rushing by our window

But time can’t touch us in this place

I’m surrounded by your light - oh

Now I know

Chorus

So this is what it feels like

To hold forever in your hand

So this is what it looks like

Gazing on where angels stand

If there’s - such perfection

Within this fallen world

I wonder what will heaven be like?

Verse

Let me hide along your fringes

As close as mortal hearts can be

Take these pieces left of me and

Make me whole

Chorus (2X)

3. CARRIED AWAY:

Verse

Don’t know what I’ve been doing lately

But it’s time that I figured out

‘cause I’m starting to think that maybe

You could be what this is all about

Though I’m trying to keep my center

And keep all my goals in view

I’m caught up in this sense of wonder

Captured at the thought of you

Chorus

I get carried away

It’s so easy to stray

Seems like everyday

I can’t get enough

Of what you do, what you say

Keeps me wishing this way

I get carried away

All the time

Verse

Well, it’s starting to be an issue 

‘cause the more that I look I find

All the world could be gone around me

But I can’t get you off my mind

It’s so hard to be realistic

When you happen to be so near

I don’t want to mess up our friendship

If there isn’t something deeper here

Chorus

Bridge

Why can’t reality

Be made of you and me

It can’t be that hard to see

I know we’re meant to be

That’s my guarantee

Hoping someday you’ll agree 

Half Verse

So, I’m gathering up my courage

‘cause I gotta come clean tonight

I can’t take one more day not knowing

Just tell me if I’m wrong or right

Chorus

4. DON’T LEAVE ME TONIGHT:

Intro

Don’t leave me

Don’t leave me tonight

Verse

Like a child I was terrified

When you turned to say goodbye

I didn’t know if you would clarify - identify

Tell me why you need to go

Climb

I want you / I need you

I can’t help it though I try

I want you / I need you

Can’t keep it all inside

Chorus

Don’t leave me tonight

Don’t turn off the light

I’m losing the fight

Don’t leave me

Don’t leave me - tonight

Verse

If I was wrong I apologize

I just thought that you would stay

Moving on we can compromise - I’ll improvise

You don’t have to go away

Climb

I hold you / I keep you

Every moment all the time

I hold you / I keep you

Let me make you mine

Chorus

Bridge

Don’t leave me / don’t lose me / don’t let it go

Don’t leave me / don’t lose me / don’t ever let me go - 

I know you / I want you  / I need you / don’t let it go

I want you / I need you / don’t ever let me go -

Chorus 2X

5. BITTER COLD:

Verse

Heading down the winter highway

You bear your burden tall

No one comes to take it from you

When your heart begins to fall

Climb

As you go your lonely way

You hear the wind begin to say

Chorus

Oh, the bitter cold now

It’s in your bones now

Can’t take it back now

You’ll never know how

Verse

There be days so full of trouble

Your mind is sinking down

And your nights are full of sorrow

Your cries the only sound

Climb

Though you take it all in stride

It’s weary now

You feel inside

Chorus

Oh, the bitter cold now

It’s in your bones now

Can’t take it back now

You’ll never know how

Oh, the bitter times now

I see in your eyes now

long is the road now

Wherever you go now

Climb

You await your final rest

And watch the sun fade in the west

Chorus

6. CHASING LOVE

INSTRUMENTAL

7. FAIR WEATHER LOVE:

Verse

Change is in the air

everyone prepare

I see it the way you’re standing there

you believe in fate

never one to wait

no one ever knows till it’s too late

Climb

I have learned to see

you’re no guarantee

Chorus

fair weather love 

you will come and you’ll grow

in troubled times

no surprise that I don’t know

come with the shine

you’ll be mine until the snow

fair weather love

you will fade before you go

Verse

standing in the sun

heaven’s just begun

never would you ever turn to run

but you’re about to go

you wonder how I know

a stormy day will make your colors show

Climb

it won’t be long before

you won’t want me anymore

Chorus

8. COME WITH ME:

Verse

Can you hear me whispering calling your name

Leave behind the people still sleeping away

Dawn is breaking, overtaking, 

Slowly making you open your eyes

Listen closely, come and hold me

I’m ready to go, I’m ready to be free

Chorus

Come with me

Together forever

And set me free

As only you can

Verse

Can you feel this love that’s so hard to explain

We can break these chains that have held us so long

My heart’s aching, yours for taking

I’m so tired of waiting for you

Come and find me, please be mine

Be everything, everything I need

Chorus

Bridge

We don’t have to wait anymore

Just walk out through that open door

Let me show you the way

Things are not as bad as they seem

Together we can share every dream

Chorus

Bridge

We don’t have to wait anymore

Just walk out through that open door

Let me show you the way

Things are not as bad as they seem

Together we can share every dream

Chorus

9. HEAVEN REPRISE

INSTRUMENTAL

10. CITY THAT I’M LOOKING FOR

Verse

I’ve been to Chicago and I’ve seen it’s tallest tower

Rising high in silver spears in great displays of power

They got a lot of pretty things a man cannot ignore

Oh, but that’s not the city that I’m looking for

Verse

I’ve seen New York city now all covered in the snow

Shining bright with colored lights everywhere I go

But I feel something missing here

And I long for something more

Oh, it’s still not the city that I’m looking for

Chorus

And every time that I try to rest my troubled soul

All I find is I’m not at home

And I will walk every road the world may have in store

But it’s still not the city that I’m looking for

Verse

I’ve been out to see L.A. in all it’s glory fine

To get a taste of hollywood some would call divine

But every sip upon my lip would kill me at the core

Knowing this is not the city that I’m looking for

Chorus

Bridge

Seems like just as long as I remember

I’ve never found the place I wanna find

But as long as I can get there by forever

I’ll admit that I don’t really mind

Verse

Cuz somewhere in that city by the pretty crystal sea

I’ve been told of streets of gold

And a mansion there for me

And nothing here can make me fear 

The promise of that shore

Oh, and that’s the kind of city that I’m looking for

Chorus

Oh, and that’s the kind of city that I’m looking for (2X)

11. SO CLOSE:

Verse 

Do you remember

All of the times we said goodbye

And all of the times we never got to say hello

We said that someday

We’d have the chance to make it right

Baby I thought that I would be there by tonight

Chorus

(‘cause) we were so close and yet so far

And I was almost to where you are

I thought that I could hold you in my arms

I was wrong

But that’s how the story goes

How it ends, no one knows

But I will keep you here inside my heart

So close

Verse

I never see you

It isn’t enough to hear your voice

I need to take you by the hand and pull you close

Now that I love you

Even more than all before

And no matter what I do

I just keep missing you

Chorus

Bridge

there’s nothing else I need

all I want is you

right here next to me

you somehow get me through

I will stay forever true

Half Chorus

Chorus
