"Visions Of Love" album cover After All These Years

Written by: David Grow
Sung by: Anne Cochran

Album: "Visions Of Love"
(Order this album through Amazon.com)

Here we are
After all these years
Face to face
Heart to heart
And I've loved you from the start
But I never thought that we'd be standing here
After all these years

Here we are
With another song to sing
All these days
Pass us by
As we watched our childhood fly
And I'm still the one to share your hopes and fears
After all these years

Chorus:
After all these years
We still have each other
One to another
After all these years
You're still the one
And I'm still here
After all these years

And here we are
With another bridge to cross
Face to face
Heart to heart
And I loved you from the start
But I never thought that we'd be standing here
After all these years

(chorus)

Bridge:
And I've loved these days
All we've been through
And I'd just like to say
I'm so glad it's been you
Here's one more song from the heart
For the laughter and the tears
After all these years

(chorus)

After all these years

Hold me close
Baby please
Tell me anything
But that you’re gonna leave
As I kiss this falling tear
I promise you I will be here

Chorus:
'Til the stars fall from the sky
'Til I find a reason why
And darling as the years go by
'Til there’s no tears left to cry
'Til the angels close my eyes
And even if we’re worlds apart
I'll find my way back to you by heart

When you go
I’ll stop the clock
I won’t ever
Let this moment stop
Time is stealin’ you from me
But it can never take this memory

(chorus)

(piano solo)

Destiny

Written by: Jim Brickman, Dane Deviller
and Sean Hosein
Sung by: Jordan Hill and Billy Porter

Album: "Destiny"
(Order this album through Amazon.com)

What if I never knew
What if I never found you
I'd never have this feeling in my heart
How did this come to be
I don't know how you found me

But from the moment I saw you
Deep inside my heart I knew

Chorus:
Baby you're my destiny
You and I were meant to be
With all my heart and soul
I give my love to have and hold
And as far as I can see
You were always meant to be my destiny

I wanted someone like you
Someone that I could hold on to
And give my love until the end of time
But forever was just a word
Something I'd only heard about

But now you're always there for me
When you say forever I believe

(chorus)

Maybe all we need is just a little faith
'Cause baby I believe that love will find the way

(instrumental bridge)

Baby you're my destiny
You and I were meant to be
With all my heart and soul
I give my love to have and hold
And as I far as I can see
From now until eternity
You were always meant to be my destiny

Sung by: Collin Raye and Susan Ashton

Album: "The Gift"
(Order this album through Amazon.com)

Winter snow is falling down
Children laughing all around
Lights are turning on
Like a fairy tale come true
Sitting by the fire we made
You’re the answer when I prayed
I would find someone
And baby I found you

Chorus:
All I want is to hold you forever
All I need is you more every day
You saved my heart
From being broken apart
You gave your love away
And I’m thankful every day
For the gift

Watching as you softly sleep
What I’d give if I could keep
Just this moment
If only time stood still
But the colors fade away
And the years will make us grey
But baby in my eyes
You’ll still be beautiful

(chorus)

(piano solo)

Chorus:
All I want is to hold you forever
All I need is you more every day
You saved my heart
From being broken apart
You gave your love away
I can’t find the words to say
That I’m thankful everyday
For the gift

Starlight falling on the snow
Fire glows within
Celebrate the joyful news
Hope is born again

There is holly 'round the doorway
There is cider on the stove
And the sound of Psalm will fill the air
As the family gathers close

Lift your voices high and sing
Grace has entered in
Praises to the infant King
Hope is born again

Through the frost upon the window
See the stocking on the
Where the light reflects the cheerfulness
That's growing in our hearts

Lift your voices high and sing
Grace has entered in
Celebrate the joyful news
Hope is born again

(instrumental)

Lift your voices high and sing
Grace has entered in
Praises to the infant King
Hope is born again

And the hope of that first Christmas
The day that heaven came to Earth
Now it comes again and fills our heart
As we celebrate his birth

Starlight falling on the snow
Fire glows within
Celebrate the joyful news
Hope is born again
Hope is born again

 

 
"Ballads" album cover

In A Lover's Eyes

Written by: Jim Brickman and Brock Walsh
Sung by: Ariel Rivera

Album: "Ballads" (Philippines edition)

All you see are endless skies
Like an ocean lit by fireflies
With a long deep breath
I speak my heart
Saying things
I'm not sure just what they are
A feeling catches me by surprise
You can see forever
In a lover's eyes

I can stop myself
But on I go
Finding feelings
I have never known
There's hope beyond
Your wildest dreams
And the feeling
Is nothing to extreme
In a flash
Tomorrow begins to rise
You can see forever
In a lover's eyes

I can see your world
Beautiful and new
And although I'm not sure
Where it's leading to
We will travel on
Our fate unknown
And for once
I know I'm not alone
It's a trade we make
A sacrifice
Love never ending
Is surely worth the price
If we survive
Love holds no greater price
You can see forever
In a lover's eyes

Love Of My Life

Written by: Jim Brickman and Tom Douglas
Sung by: Michael W. Smith

Album: "Destiny"
(Order this album through Amazon.com)

I am amazed
When I look at you
I see you smiling back at me
It's like all my dreams come true

I am afraid
If I lost you girl
I'd fall through the cracks
And lose my track in this crazy lonely world

Sometimes it's so hard to believe
When the nights can be so long
And faith give me the strength
And kept me going on

Chorus:
You are the love of my life
And I'm so glad you found me
You are the love of my life
Baby put your arms around me
I guess this is how it feels
When you finally find something real
My angel in the night
You are the love
The love of my life

Now here you are
With midnight closing in
You take my hand as our shadows dance
With moonlite on your skin

I look in your eyes
I'm lost inside your kiss
I think if I'd never met you
About all the things I'd missed

Sometimes it's so hard to believe
When a love can be so strong
And faith give me the strength
And keep me holding on

(chorus)

(instrumental bridge)

(chorus)

Simple Things

Written by: Jim Brickman
Sung by: Rebecca Lynn Howard

Album: "Simple Things"
(Order this album through Amazon.com)

Hey, time won't wait
Life goes by
Every day's a brand new sky
Every tear comes to dry
All that really matters in this crazy world
Is you and I together, baby just remember...

The first leaves of the tree,
The way you look at me,
A thousand chiming church bells ring
The simple things are free
The sun, the moon, the stars,
The beating of two hearts
How I love the simple things,
The simple things just are

So here we go
Let's just dance
Teach my soul to take this chance
Put my heart in your hands
Out of all the moments that we leave behind
Turn around and tell me baby we'll remember...

The thunder and the rain,
The way you say my name
After all the clouds go by the simple things remain
The sun, the moon, the stars,
The beating of two hearts
How I love the simple things,
The simple things just are

Oh, The ocean and the sky
The way we feel tonight
I know that it's the love that brings the simple things to light
The sun, the moon, the stars,
The beating of two hearts
I love the way the simple things,
The simple things just are

Starlight, starbright
Wishing on the first star of the night
I wish I may
I wish I might
Make all your dreams
Come true tonight

As your drift
Off to sleep
Angels guard the memories you keep
Now close your eyes
And dream away
And you'll awaken on Christmas day

(instrumental)

Starlight, starbright
Shining on my little one tonight
I wish I may
I wish I might
Make all your dreams
Come true for you tonight.

If there were no words
No way to speak
I would still hear you
If there were no tears
No way to feel inside
I’d still feel for you

Chorus:
And even if the sun refused to shine
Even if romance ran out of rhyme
You would still have my heart
Until the end of time
You’re all I need, my love, my Valentine

All of my life
I have been waiting for
All you give to me
You’ve opened my eyes
And shown me how to love unselfishly

Chorus:
I’ve dreamed of this a thousand times before
But in my dreams I couldn’t love you more
I will give you my heart
Until the end of time
You’re all I need, my love, my Valentine

(piano solo)

Chorus:
And even if the sun refused to shine
Even if romance ran out of rhyme
You would still have my heart
Until the end of time
’Cause all I need is you, my Valentine
You’re all I need, my love, my Valentine

What We Believe In

Written by: Jim Brickman and Tom Douglas
Sung by: Pam Tillis

Album: "Destiny" (regular edition only)
(Order this album through Amazon.com)

Funny, just the other day
I was walking down the street
Stopped into that place
You know, the one where we used to meet
Thought I heard you call my name
And I whispered on the wind
And I remember you were going,
Never coming back again

Chorus:
But if love is what we believe in
I'll see you in heaven's first bright star
If seeing is believing
I look into the skies and there you are
You're not that far
'Cause love is what we believe in

Looking through some photographs
From not so long ago
Right now, I'd give anything
If I had only known
I would never you touch you, hold you
Or kiss your face
Feel your arms around me
Or fall in your embrace

(chorus)

Bridge:
Now love will break your heart
When you say goodbye
But love is worth the pain
And all tears you cry

(instrumental)

And if seeing is believing
I look into the skies and there you are
You're not that far
'Cause love is what we believe in
And you are in my heart
And our love is what I believe in.

Written by: Jim Brickman
Sung by: Jane Krakowski

Albums: Love Songs and Lullabies
(Order "Love Songs" through Amazon.com)

I never felt alone
I was happy on my own
And who would ever know there was something missing
I guess I didn't see the possibility
It was waiting all the time
But it never crossed my mind
Till you opened up my eyes
Now all I think about is

Chorus:
You in my life
In my dreams
In my heart I know it's true
That I belong with you
Because of you in my world
In my arms
I have everything and now
I can't imagine what I'd do
Without you

I never thought that love could be
Such a curiosity
But what attracted you to me
Was so unexpected
But it was waiting all the time
And it never crossed my mind
Until you opened up my eyes
Now all I think about is

CHORUS (x2)

In my life
In my dreams
In my heart I know it's true
That I belong with you
Because of you in my world
In my arms
I have everything and now
I can't imagine what I'd do
I can't imagine what I'd do
Without you
Without you

Sung by: Michelle Wright

Albums: "Visions Of Love" and "Destiny"
(Order "Destiny" through Amazon.com)

It's not the flowers
Wrapped in fancy paper
It's not the ring
I wear around my finger
There's nothing in all the world I need
When I have you here beside me
Here beside me

Chorus:
So you could give me wings to fly
And catch me if I fall
Or pull the stars down from the sky
So I could wish on them all
But I couldn't ask for more
'Cause your love is the greatest gift of all

In your arms
I found a strength inside of me
And in your eyes
There's a light to guide me
I would be lost without you
And all that my heart could ever want
Has come true

(chorus)

Bridge:
You could offer me the sun, the moon
And I would still believe
You gave me everything
When you gave your heart to me

(piano solo)

I couldn't ask for more
'Cause your love is the greatest gift of all

(chorus)
