tim halperin - from this day on
We set out at the first light
We lit up with the sunrise
Gets my heartbeat running wild
When you're here by my side
And we'll dream
Dream out loud
Take our chance
Take it now
We will go
From this day on
Take this world
And make it ours
You and I
All life long
We'll take this world
From this day on
We can breathe in the moment
Open arms, we can own it
All these dreams we can run down
Feel it fall into place now
And we'll dream
Dream out loud
Take our chance
Take it now
tim halperin - holding this rope
At midnight she tells me
That she loves me
I know it's because we,
We just can't get enough
It's getting harder to focus,
I'm stuck inside this business
She knows the words to tell me
When the going gets tough
I step into the driver's seat
And I head for the highway
I'm rolling down the windows,
I'm making sure the wind's
Still blowing my way
And I say...
We are holding this rope,
Yeah, we are holding this rope,
We are holding this rope
And she knows that I won't,
Yeah, she knows that I won't ever let go
In Oklahoma,
The raindrops hit the pavement,
Well, then it hits me
The sun has slipped away,
Not to worry,
Our song comes on the radio
I'm singing words
That let me know I'll be okay
And sometimes I don't know
How I've got it so good
She pulls me in and holds me,
I let her take me hostage again
And I say...
We are holding this rope,
Yeah, we are holding this rope,
We are holding this rope
And she knows that I won't,
Yeah, she knows that I won't ever let go
The way I understand it,
That I have one life to live
I can't wait to see
How much loving I can give
With every day I'm knowing
That I don't know where I'm going
But I really don't care,
I'm going with her...
Hmm, yeah,
And we are holding this rope,
Yeah, we are holding this rope,
We are holding this rope
And she knows that I won't,
Yeah, she knows that I won't ever let go...
tim halperin - let it go
I try to walk from here
But it seems my feet disappear
It didn't stop my thoughts from travelling
To places in spite of their fear
I looked over all the past to find
That the only way out is time
So I'll let it go,
Yeah, I'll let it go...
It takes me a while to realize I'm wrong
I try to keep my mouth shut
But that never last long
I've been compromised
By my own disguise,
Soon I'll realize
What it feels like to let it go,
So I'll let it go
Stone-cold buildings smile as I walk by
Sneering at defeat
With plenty of reasons why
It took all I had to lay me on the line
And I'm back, it's a fact,
Things got the best of me this time
It takes me a while to realize I'm wrong
I try to keep my mouth shut
But that never last long
I've been compromised
By my own disguise,
Soon I'll realize
What it feels like to let it go...
Paint a weather love should grow
It seems that I can't let go
Things I still want to know
But it seems that I can't let go...
So I'll stay away if you want me to,
Time needs distance
I'll stay away if you want me to
So I'll stay away if you want me to,
Time needs distance
I'll stay away...
I've been compromised
By my own disguise,
Soon I'll realize
What it feels like to let it go...
tim halperin - only love
Morning light
Breaking through the eastern hills
Just you and me (mm)
While the earth stands still
Dashboard dreams of what could be
In the great unknown
We have no map, we got no plans
Just open road
Say you'll stay with me forever
Say you'll be my only love
We can make it through whatever
Say you'll be my only love
Endless days
We got the whole world at our feet
We'll take our time
Yeah we'll be who we want to be
Under this sky
I'm so alive
When you're with me
This open door
This empty page
For the heart set free
Say you'll stay with me forever
Say you'll be my only love
We can make it through whatever
Say you'll be my only love
Say you'll be
My only love
Say you'll be, say you'll be
My only love
tim halperin - she runs
Just when I saw morning coming
I turned my head
To see Karen running...
Ever since she was a baby
Karen couldn't sit still
They had to create healthcare
For all the boys that she made ill
Well, sometimes still I wonder
How I got locked in her trap
But with love so good it's no wonder
That I won't be the last
And she runs, ooh,
You know it's just begun
And she runs, ooh,
To make you think
About what you've done
And she runs...
I've been trying to find her lately,
She's been trying to find herself
And the cracks that break
And the dreams that wake
Keep her from knowing just how to tell
Could this be my future
And could this be my past
Well, Karen's running out of reasons
And I am falling fast
And she runs, ooh,
And you know it's just begun
And she runs, ooh,
To make you think
About what you've done
And she runs...
And she runs, ooh,
You thought you've had enough
And she runs, ooh,
It's the chase that makes it fun
And she runs, ooh,
You thought you've had enough
And she runs, ooh,
To make you think
About what you've done
And she runs...
tim halperin - something beautiful
Here we stand
The world awaits
We'll let the stars tonight
Light the way
Hand in hand
Through light or rain
It's your constant love
That gives me strength
Under the starlight
We'll find our way, I know
This is the start of something beautiful
With you by my side
There's no place that we can't go
This is the start of something beautiful
When the wind
Moves along your face
It captures everything
I long to say
So don't look back, love
And don't you wait
Just say you'll run with me
Come what may
Under the starlight
We'll find our way, I know
This is the start of something beautiful
With you by my side
There's no place that we can't go
This is the start of something beautiful
(Ohh's)
Something beautiful
(Ohh's)
Here we stand
The world awaits
It's your love, I know
That gives me strength
Under the starlight
We'll find our way, I know
This is the start of something beautiful
With you by my side
There's no place that we can't go
This is the start of something beautiful
tim halperin - the last song
When it's over, I go numb
And lose the feeling for a while
All the pictures make me wonder
If I'll ever find that smile
I'm a sailboat tossed by wind and waves
And somehow I'm staying afloat
I'm a memory on you, oh and won't forget me
You burn the letters I wrote
Ooh, you should know
Ooh, you should know
That this is the last song
I'll write for you
And this is my last try
To make it through
And you won't say a word
I'm surprised you haven't heard
I'm trying not to love you
And I wonder if this cycle of mine
Will ever end
And I wonder why growing closer to love
Is starting all over again
I'm a regret, you can try to avoid me
It hurts to know I'm around
I'm a story and I don't know the ending
I worry about that now
Ooh, you should know
Ooh, you should know
That this is the last song
I'll write for you
And this is my last try
To make it through
And you won't say a word
I'm surprised you haven't heard
I'm trying not to love you
And this is the last song
I'll write for you,
Yeah, this is my last try
To make it through,
Yeah, this is the last song
I'll write for you
And this is my last try
To make it through
And you won't say a word
I'm surprised you haven't heard
I'm trying not to love you,
I'm trying not to love you...
tim halperin - white
Yellow roses at your feet
A veil that couldn't hide those blue eyes
Your daddy walked you up to me
Everybody stood as you passed by
Been dreaming of this moment
Waiting on the day
When I'd look at you and say
I choose
You
For the rest of my life
Everyday
I'll remain
Right by your side
I'm the boy who won the world
Cuz somehow you're the girl
Standing here in front of me tonight
Dressed in white
From that first date at the coffee shop
Nothing else had ever felt so right
And your smile has always lit me up
But I've never seen it shining quite this bright, no
I choose
You
For the rest of my life
Everyday
I'll remain
Right by your side
I'm the boy who won the world
Cuz somehow you're the girl
Standing here in front of me tonight
Dressed in white
Your good days and bad days
Your never thought you'd have days
The hard times and sweet times
All those in between times
Your stands and your fall
Baby I want it all for all time
I choose
You
For the rest of my life
Everyday
I'll remain
Right by your side
I'm the boy who won the world
Cuz somehow you're the girl
Standing here in front of me tonight
Dressed in white
Dressed in white
