1974
Written and performed by Amy Grant
Suggested by PK
We were young
None of us knew quite what to say
But the feeling moved
Among us in silence anyway
Slowly we had made
Quite a change
Somewhere we had crossed a big line
Down upon our knees
We had tasted holy wine
And no one could sway us
In a life time
Purer than the sky
Behind the rain
Falling down all around us
Calling out from a boundless love
Love had lit a fire
We were the flame
Burning into the darkness
Shining out from inside us
Not a word
No one had to say we were changed
Nothing else we lived through
Would ever be the same
Knowing the truth
We had gained
Purer than the sky
Behind the rain
Falling down all around us
Calling out from a boundless love
Love had lit a fire
We were the flame
Burning into the darkness
Shining out from inside us
Stay with me
Make it ever new
So time will not undo
As the years go by
How I need to see
That's still me
Falling down all around us
Calling out from a boundless love
Burning into the darkness
Shining out from inside us
Purer than the sky
Behind the rain
Falling down all around us
Calling out from a boundless love
Love had lit a fire
We were the flame
Burning into the darkness
Shining out from inside us

Sometimes
Performed by The Carpenters
Lyrics by Felice Mancini & music by Henry Mancini
Suggested by terryl
Sometimes, not often enough,
We reflect upon the good things,
And those thoughts always center around those we love;
And I think about those people who mean so much to me
And for so many years have made me so very happy,
And I count the times I have forgotten to say "thank you"
And just how much I love them.

Don't Let It Pass By
Performed by Poco
Suggested by Moog25
Go on, my little babe, and cry
Lay your head down, shut your eyes
Someday we'll make us realize
Things weren't really quite that bad
Think of all the things we had
Oh, I know
Sometimes we don't do things right
Lose our heads and start to fight
Over something small, something trite
Finally seeing in the end
Just how silly we have been
Couldn't be because I don't love you
It's foolish even thinkin' I don't try
Lovin' is a feelin' and I'm a-feelin' it too
Don't Let It Pass By
Monday morning could still be blue
Sleepy-eyed, about to lose
That morning always comes too soon
Finds me lyin' in my bed
Things half-done, some half-said
I love you
Time After Time

Time After Time
by Cyndi Lauper and Rob Hyman
Suggested by cherebus
Lying in my bed I hear the clock tick,
And think of you
Caught up in circles confusion
Is nothing new
Flashback warm nights
Almost left behind
Suitcases of memories,
Time after
Sometimes you picture me
I’m walking too far ahead
You’re calling to me, I can’t hear
What you’ve said
Then you say go slow
I fall behind
The second hand unwinds
If you’re lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you I’ll be waiting
Time after time
If you’re lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you ‘Ill be waiting
Time after time
After my picture fades and darkness has
Turned to gray
Watching through windows you’re wondering
If I’m ok
Secrets stolen from deep inside
The drum beats out of time
If you’re lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you I’ll be waiting
Time after time
You said go slow
I fall behind
The second hand unwinds
If you’re lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you I’ll be waiting
Time after time
If you’re lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you I’ll be waiting
Time after time
Time after time
Time after time
Time after time

Pure Imagination
Written by Leslie Bricusse, Performed by Gene Wilder
Suggested by smatt644
Come with me
And you'll be
In a world of
Pure imagination
Take a look
And you'll see
Into your imagination
We'll begin
With a spin
Traveling in
The world of my creation
What we'll see
Will defy
Explanation
If you want to view paradise
Simply look around and view it
Anything you want to, do it
Wanta change the world?
There's nothing
To it
There is no
Life I know
To compare with
Pure imagination
Living there
You'll be free
If you truly wish to be
If you want to view paradise
Simply look around and view it
Anything you want to, do it
Wanta change the world?
There's nothing
To it
There is no
Life I know
To compare with
Pure imagination
Living there
You'll be free
If you truly
Wish to be
