A Treasure Chest A True Man Blue Ribbon
Did You Say A Prayer Tonight? Far From Fear Long Ago and Far Away
Softer Than The Wind Take A Look At Me
Where Did It Go? Will I Wait?

MIDI File Lyrics
A Treasure Chest
A Treasure Chest

 

Mom, mom.
Can you help me to go on?
Even though.
Some say you are gone
You left a treasure chest
And I have found inside
One last dream you hid for me
Before you died

Mom, mom
Not used to singing songs
Making music
For some to sing along
But in my treasure chest
I find life will not end
Before the treasures you gave me
I can give again

There are no diamonds, no fancy jewels
Only the life you led, a treasure to behold
They buried part of me with you underground
I really miss you mom, I miss having you around...

Mom, mom
You can now have rest
They called you an angel
Mom, you were the best
The part of me still seeing
Still sees your happiness
And I just want to thank you
For my treasure chest

MIDI File Lyrics
A True Man
A True Man
I'm getting this impression
Of a man who truly is
What he says he is
In him
No doubts uncovered

He captures my sensation
Every time he plays
But he doesn't complain
In him
I have discovered

Peace is the music that he plays to me
Love is the orchestra's symphony
Always willing to take my hand
Yes I know in him is a true man

He's a monomaniac
And he doesn't miss his mark
Even in the dark
In him
I've found a humor

A masterpiece of honor
And a pride that will not die
Dignity can hide
In him
There is no rumor

Peace is the music that he plays to me
Love is the orchestra's symphony
Always willing to take my hand
Yes I know in him is a true man

They'll make a bust of him I pray
Through the dust the sign will say
He made music every day.

Peace is the music that he plays to me
Love is the orchestra's symphony
Always willing to take my hand
Yes I know in him is a true man
Yes I know in him is a true man.

MIDI File Lyrics
Blue Ribbon
Blue Ribbon
It's big enough, you know
That part you hide
It spans a bridge, from sea to sea.
But it don't reach me

I lost my balance
Tripping over you
Blushing red, in no cent ly
You didn't see

I'd give you a blue ribbon
For going for the gold
Some would let you hunger
But I would make you full
I'd try to find a harmony,
Live the golden rule
I'd apply some common sense
But never throw away the jewels

I think I'll start a life
That's all my own
I keep the fridge, you the T V
What will it be?

Grass isn't greener
On the other side
I heard these words inside of me
But I was free
I was free.

I'd give you a blue ribbon
For going for the gold
Some would let you hunger
But I would make you full
I'd try to find a harmony
And never treat you cruel
I'd apply some common sense
But never throw away the jewels

Me see be free
That's the way it is today
We have it all in front of us
And the choice is ours to make
I wish they could mean it
When I hear them say.

I'd give you a blue ribbon
For going for the gold
Some would let you hunger
But I would make you full
I'd try to find a harmony
And never treat you cruel
I'd apply some common sense
But never throw away the jewels 

I'd give you a blue ribbon
For you this is my goal. (x4)

MIDI File Lyrics
Did You Say A Prayer Tonight?
Did You Say A Prayer Tonight?
did you say a prayer tonight?
hoping all would turn out right
put the darkness out of sight
did you say a prayer?

can you find the strength within?
get on up and try again
power in your words for them
did you say a prayer?

on bended knees 
holding hands
blessings pouring on our land
knowing god is in control
his desire to console
silent souls

life is short we all know this
there's a purpose why we live
seek to help and help to give
did you say a prayer

when the mourning brings a day
all the pain is swept away
love will thrive by what we say
did you say a prayer

on bended knees
holding hands
blessings pouring on our land
knowing god is in control
his desire to console
silent souls

they don't stand there anymore
just some dust of life before
but i know they see heaven's door
it isn't really far away
i know he hears us when we pray...

on bended knees
holding hands
blessings pouring on our land
knowing god is in control
his desire to console
silent souls
oh...
silent souls....

MIDI File Lyrics
Far From Fear
Far From Fear
We didn't get to be with her longer than that week
I guess he wanted her to go at last she didn't speak
Saying all the goodbyes filled our eyes with tears
But she left us with a smile we know she was far from fear

She gave me a dream
I inherited that day
Something to hold on
When God took her away
I know she's looking down
I still feel her care
My momma's up in heaven
But she is far from fear

She had a will all her own like no one else on Earth
Her priceless way made others say she doesn't know her worth
Her laugh was bittersweet from all the hell that she'd been through
Heaven is her wages she earned every penny too..

She gave me a dream
I inherited that day
Something to hold on
When God took her away
I know she's looking down
I still feel her care
My momma's up in heaven
But she is far from fear

Angels have gone before me
Only they can know peace
When he takes me tomorrow
Then my dream will be true

She gave me a dream
I inherited that day
Something to hold on
When God took her away
I know she's looking down
I still feel her care
My momma's up in heaven
But she is far from fear
My momma's up in heaven
But she is far from fear

MIDI File Lyrics
Long Ago And Far Away
Long Ago and Far Away
Long ago and far away
Reflecting in this difference that we made
I look at you and see myself somebody new
That time became the turning point
It came together, wonder, love and joy
Two hearts united underneath that sun.

Long ago I lived a fantasy
Your world was far from me
We knew we had to keep believing
Long ago and far away
I find our future in its place somehow
When I look back I know what life's about
Long ago.

(Instrumental)

Long ago I lived a fantasy
Your world was far from me
We knew we had to keep believing
Long ago and far away
I see our future in its place somehow
When I look back I know what life's about.
Long ago.

MIDI File Lyrics
Softer Than The Wind
Softer Than The Wind
You can give me all your dreams
I'll take care of them for you
My life becomes so serene
Hoping that you're wishing too
Turning in this breeze I feel
Your hands touching all of me
Though your presence isn't real
You can give me ecstasy

We've been out on moonlight walks
I caressed your gentle arms
While you kissed me tenderly
You were opening my heart
There's a pleasure soothing me
When I'm having thoughts like this
In a gust of love that comes
Just something I can't resist

Carry me
To that paradise again (x2)
Where long blue waves come rolling in
Our hearts are waiting to begin
Your love is softer, softer than the wind

Fall leaves are dancing in the trees
Doves are making music
As the day becomes free
The clouds are moving
Like they've never been
Flowing with the energy that you send

Carry me
To that paradise again (x2)
Where long blue waves come rolling in
Our hearts are waiting to begin
Your love is softer, softer than the wind

MIDI File Lyrics
Take A Look At Me
Take A Look At Me
Take a look at me
Am I that different?
Since we said those words
A long, long time ago
Love was kinder then
The passion flowed so smooth
Oh what I would not give
To give it back to you

What's that smile for?
Your face it just might crack
For goodness sakes
Is it all coming back?
Didn't it feel good?
To know love in return
And when we had to live
Apart how we did yearn

(chorus)
Look again. Take a look at me
I'm your friend
At least, I used to be
'Till the end of time
Together we did chime
You ran to open doors
Who could've asked for more?
Take a look at me. Take a look at me

There was power in our kisses
We were more than we could see
You were Mr. I was Mrs.
In our future family
20 years and counting
Still some blessings too
I just wanted you to know
I still look at you

(instrumental)

(chorus)
Look again. Take a look at me
I'm your friend
At least, I used to be
Until the end of time
Together we did chime
You ran to open doors
Who could've asked for more?
Take a look at me. Take a look at me

If you look again, take a look at me
See I'm your friend
At least, I use to be
Until the end of time
Together we did chime
You ran to open doors
Who could've asked for more?
Take a look at me.
Take a look at me
Take a look at me.

MIDI File Lyrics
Where Did It Go?
Where Did It Go?
(V1)
Your the only one I know
Could lose their dipstick
Honey where did it go
No that's my lipstick
Think I see it under there
Does it matter do you care
Honey where did it go
Your hair...!

(Chorus)
Where did it go what you cannot find
You put it where you'd find it
At a better time
Where did it go what are we gonna do
Honey I'll just leave it
Where you want me to

(V2)
Used to be good lovers
We sure had a ball
Didn't need the covers
Didn't hide at all
Where did it go
All those younger days
I'm finding I can't find things
I think it's just a faze

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
Where did it go what you cannot find
Is it worth the money is it worth the time
Learning to be good losers
Is that such a crime
Honey I'll just love you until you lose your mind

(instrumental)

(Chorus)
Where did it go what you cannot find
You put it where you'd find it
At a better time
Where did it go what are we gonna do
Honey I'll just leave it
Where you want me to

MIDI File Lyrics
Will I Wait?
Will I Wait?
Flying out an open window
Someone's pulling me back in though
Am I losing all my senses?
In this high

Going through these clouds together
Having dreams my life is better
Can it be that loving you?
Is why

Will I wait forever for
The you I feel with love
Can I hold enough of you
Until we really touch
Will I wait
Will I wait
Will I wait
Get through my sorrows
Will I wait
Will I wait
Will I wait
For our tomorrows

Thoughts are filling up my spaces
Though I'm sitting my heart paces
Hear your footsteps leading to
My open door

Closer than we knew we could be
Gentle passion seems to rule me
With love from the one I'm
Waiting for

Will I wait forever for
The you I feel with love
Can I hold enough of you
Until we really touch
Will I wait
Will I.
Will I wait
Get through my sorrows
Will I wait
Will I wait
Will I wait
For our tomorrows

My bed has a softer pillow
Something I held now we will know
Tonight tears were only drops
Of rain...

Will I wait etc.
