Irish Angel
(Bruce McCabe)
In the fall of the year
She flew across the ocean
To Ireland, the land of her fathers
When we said good-bye a tear was in her eye
I lost her then and there, my Irish angel
The first letter came, she said she loved it there
And now how she wished I was now with her
She wrote it on the hill, in the gentle Irish rain
I saw her in my mind, my Irish angel
------(not sure about this line)
There was no second letter
Just the silence of the storm that fell around me
I let her down I know
The day I let her go
She's found someone else, my Irish angel
When I first saw her, my heart went into spinning
When they speak of love they call it falling
It was like I held my breath until I laid eyes on her again
Too beautiful, she was my Irish angel
When I stole a glance, then too a stolen kiss
I thought I knew the chance that I was taking
In all the days I've known a love as strong as this
And what it was to feel my own heart breaking
So now I raise a glass and then I raise another
One to forget and one to remember
OH I wanted just to dream the way things could have been
If I hadn't lost my Irish angel
Still Rainin
(Bruce McCabe)
Clouds one by one, fill the sky
Just like these tears that fill my eyes
I know by now she aint comin' back
Watch my world slowly fade into black
Look out my window, it's still rainin'
Look out my window it's still rainin'
They say that time heals everything Any hope I had is slowly slipping away Look out my window, it's still rainin' Look out my window it's still rainin' I thought the morning would rescue me But the rain keeps falling endlessly, endlessly Sometimes I wonder what'll become of me There ain't much left of what I used to be Her love shone on me like the morning light Now here I am alone again tonight Look out my window, it's still rainin' Look out my window, it's still rainin'.

Second Guessing
(David Z, Bruce McCabe)
Second guessin' first impressions There you go again Rushing off in all directions Since I don't know when All day long you've been building walls You've building walls all day Putting ceilings on your feelings Don't you think it's time time you admit it Your heart is more worthy of trust than the thoughts in your mind that sit there gathering dust Everything you're looking for You'll know when it's real You'll know when you've found it By the way you feel Writing down your deepest emotions With your pen in hand Your piece of paper flew out the window You watched it try and land You felt bad as it flew out of sight A part of your heart alone in the night All of a sudden you didn't mind it when you pictured that lonely stranger that would find it Everything you're looking for You'll know when it's real You'll know when you've found it By the way you feel.

I Am
(Prince, David Z, Levi Seacer, Jr.)
If being in love means waiting around So you can dance with me I am, I am If being in love means follow the leader Then this will have to be I am, I am Baby I am So in love with you I am, I am Gonna get you baby If it's the last thing I do I used to think that a pretty face Meant more than what was inside I did, I did If being a good man means swallowing all my pride I will, yes I will Repeat Chorus I am the one who loves you I am the one who cares You could fly me to the moon If I would find you there All the riches in this world mean nothing Without you here Whoever, Whatever, However, Whenever You need me I'm always here Men killing their brothers Nobody wants to go down alone In this age of uncertainty Love's worth more than gold I'd sleep outside your window If that would make you see That I'm the only one for you And you're the only one for me

Breakin' Me
(Jonny Lang, Kevin Bowe)
Everyday I see your face I wish that I'd stayed Don't even know what made me run away It's just the way I play the game Emotional is not a word I'd use to explain myself But now you've got me down upon my knees Baby please take me back I don't want to be in love But you're making me Let me up I've had enough. Girl you're breakin' me Here I am just half a man standing alone Felling like I lost my only chance At happiness when I let you go I don't want to be alone Thinkin' bout you girl I got nothing left in this lonely world Solo The first time my heart was ever touched Was the day I lost your love I can feel it in my flesh and blood My sould can only take so much So there it is Why can't you give us one more try You and I could find away to live If you let me in one more time I know you lost your faith in me, but I still believe Can I make you understand, can I make you see I am desperate for your love and it's breakin' me Breakin' Me

Wander This World
(Paul Diethelm, Bruce McCabe)
The tar in the street starts to melt from the heat
And the sweats runnin' down from my hair
I walked 20 miles and I'm dragging my feet
And I'll walk 20 more I don't care
And I'll wander this world, wander this world
Wander this world, wander this world all alone
I'm like a ghost some people can't see
Others drive by and stare
A shadow that drifts by the side of the road
It's like I'm not even there
And I'll wander this world, wander this world
Wander this world, wander this world all alone
Well I've never been part of the game
The life that I live is my own
All that I know is that I was born
To wander this world all alone, all alone
Some people are born with their lives all laid out
And all their success is assured
Some people work hard all their lives for nothin'
They take it and don't say a word
They don't say a word
Sometimes it's like I don't even exist
Even God has lost track of my soul
Why else would he leave me out here like this
To wander this world all alone
And I'll wander this world, wander this world
Wander this world, wander this world all alone

Walking Away
(Jonny Lang, Jerry Lynn Williams)
You can cry
But don't cry for me
I can't take it no more
That's the way it must be
You can't lie
You're way back in
Back into my heart
I won't let it be broken again
I took a tumble
I started to stumble
That's when I fell
Into a love
A thought came from above
I was under your spell
The things that mattered
Were broken and shattered
One by one
I was so sad
But now I'm glad
It's over and over
There's just one more thing
That I want to say
I truly loved you
But now I'm walking away
I put no one above you
That's why I'm walking away

The Levee
(Kevin Bowe)
I have been to Memphis but I couldn't find no peace
My soul is feeling restless and I need some relief
I'm heading for the Delta, see what I can find
I know the river holds the answers that'll ease my worried mind
Take me down to the levee where the women sing
Lay me down like an angel with a broken wing
Take me down to the levee where the river flows
Gon' throw my blues off the levee and let them go
Well, I have been to Natchez, been down to Baton Rouge
But the Delta keeps on callin' me no matter what I do
Chorus
Solo
I'm drivin' through the darkness, down Highway 61
Heading for the crossroads like the ones before me done

Angel Of Mercy
(Bruce McCabe, Michael Henderson)
Angel of mercy you don't need no golden wing
Angel of mercy you don't need no golden wing
The way you came to my rescue
Heaven must be watchin' over me
When the shadows fallin' and the day turns into night
I hear my angel callin' and I can't wait to see the light
Angel of mercy you don't need no golden wing
The way you came down to my rescue
Heaven must be watchin' over me
Sometimes I get a feelin' like a fever comin' over me
Just a touch of my angels hand and I'm right back on my feet
Angel of mercy you don't need no golden wing
The way you came down to my rescue
Heaven must be watchin' over me
Stay with me baby. Come down from the sky
Just like an angel. Take me to paradise
Angel of mercy you don't need no golden wing
The way you came down to my rescue
Heaven must be watchin' over me
