YOU’RE THE ONE
Words and Music by Earl Harville
verse 1
Sad & lonely, that’s the way I used to be
Scared to mess with love again, afraid of all the pain
I was dying from a broken heart
Didn’t know how to make it stop, and then you said
“No, we’re not all the same- I’m not playing games.
I want you for you and not for what you give to me”
chorus
I guess I’ll try again
I think I’ll play the love game one more time
I think that you’re the one
The one that I’ve been searching for all of my life, oh
verse 2
It’s amazing how you turned me upside down
And how you made the down times feel just like a holiday
I’ll never look back to the past, no no
I’ll give love just one more chance
Because you love me for my heart and that’s where it should start
You love me for me and not for what you think you see
chorus
I guess I’ll try again
I think I’ll play the love game one more time
I think that you’re the one
The one that I’ve been searching for all of my life, oh
bridge
Could this be true?
Could I find someone who will love me
Without pain, without the games?
Baby, if you’re the one, I think that I will

ARMS AROUND ME
Words and Music by Earl Harville
verse 1
It’s so safe here
Nothing to bother us
No world outside of us
Nothing but us and love
I just want to stay here
No place I’d rather be
You, here, right next to me
Nothing but us and love
Precious time- being this close, nothing else can compare (x2)
chorus
Love is just feeling this close to you,
Safe and secure, lying next to you
Feeling my heart come alive
Babe, with your arms around me
Love is looking deep into your eyes
With my soul lit up by your smile
Feeling my heart come alive
Babe, with your arms around me
verse 2
So much peace here
I’m not afraid no more
My heart is fully yours
Oh boy, you’ve got my love
I want to just stay here,
laying so close to you,
warmed by the glow of you,
Man, I am so in love
Precious time- being this close, nothing else can compare (x2)
chorus
Love is just feeling this close to you,
Safe and secure, lying next to you
Feeling my heart come alive
Babe, with your arms around me
Love is looking deep into your eyes
With my soul lit up by your smile
Feeling my heart come alive
Babe, with your arms around me
bridge
And now I know that I belong
And though it seemed to take so long,
I’ve found the one, my Mr. Right
At last, I got my love 4 life
chorus
Love is just feeling this close to you,
Safe and secure, lying next to you
Feeling my heart come alive
Babe, with your arms around me
Love is looking deep into your eyes
With my soul lit up by your smile
Feeling my heart come alive
Babe, with your arms around me

MY HEART KNOWS
Words and music by Earl Harville
Chorus
I keep trying to tell myself the lie but my heart knows the truth
I can't walk away from this,
I can't give up what we once had
My mind still wants to convince me but my heart knows the truth
I'm way past turning back
I can't run away 'cause my heart knows
Verse 1
I could just pretend that I'm better off gone
Common sense, it says "boy, you need to move on"
I could just believe that I'll be just fine on my own
I can make believe that I want this to end
Could play the role like my hearts on the mend
I could just pretend that I'm OK with just being your friend
My mind wants to protect me, but my heart sees the real deal
Letting go would be the smarter thing, but the way I feel...
Chorus
I keep trying to tell myself the lie but my heart knows the truth
I can't walk away from this,
I can't give up what we once had
My mind still wants to convince me but my heart knows the truth
I'm way past turning back
I can't run away 'cause my heart knows
Verse 2
I could play it off with a smile on my face
Could play the role like I'm stronger everyday
I could make believe that I'm doing alright since you went away
I'll tell myself that I don't want you back
I'll tell the lie that I'm not feeling sad
I could just pretend that I'm really a happy man
My mind wants to protect me but my heart sees the real deal
Letting go would be the wiser thing, but the way I feel....
Chorus
I keep trying to tell myself the lie but my heart knows the truth
I can't walk away from this,
I can't give up what we once had
My mind still wants to convince me but my heart knows the truth
I'm way past turning back
I can't run away 'cause my heart knows

IS THERE A CURE?
Words and Music by Earl Harville
Verse 1
Hey baby- Can we talk
About the things that are going on in our lives
Cause I’m sensing something’s wrong
Passion once new has grown old
Our love once has become oh so cold
And boy, it’s scaring me
Chorus
Oh so sad, I don’t know where our love went wrong
It’s too bad, I always thought our love was strong
Since you’ve gone, the only thing I do is cry
Tell me is there a cure for love once it has died
Verse 2
I don’t what to do to make things right
To put the fire back into the passionate nights
Those nights of love ago
Where lies the fault? Which one’s to blame
For dead love’s ashes where used to burn such a flame? Ooooooo
Chorus
Oh so sad, I don’t know where our love went wrong
It’s too bad, I always thought our love was strong
Since you’ve gone, the only thing I do is cry
Tell me is there a cure for love once it has died
Bridge
I don’t wanna give up on this love
I don’t think my heart will beat without you
Does it mean enough to you to fight for?
It can’t be that you don’t love me anymore!!
Chorus
Oh so sad, I don’t know where our love went wrong
It’s too bad, I always thought our love was strong
Since you’ve gone, the only thing I do is cry
Tell me is there a cure for love once it has died

WHEN YOU GET HOME
Words and Music by Earl Harville
verse 1
Away…. you’re so far from home
I hate to sleep alone
Cold…..this bed when you’re not here
Boy, how I miss you much, wishing you were near
You’re never too far away for me to love you
I feel your heart for me even when you’re far away but
chorus
(When you get home)
I’ll be running right into your arms (baby)
I need to feel your heartbeat close to mine
(Waiting for you)
To kiss me long and hold me tight (honey)
And tell me how much you miss me
verse 2
Days….they drag on and on
It seems you’ve been gone so long
Nights...they feel even longer without you here
Babe, how I miss your touch, wishing you were near
You’re never too far away to know I love you
You feel my love for you even when you can’t see my face but
chorus
(When you get home)
I’ll be running right into your arms (baby)
I need to feel your heartbeat close to mine
(Waiting for you)
To kiss me long and hold me tight (honey)
And tell me how much you miss me
bridge
Though nights are so cold without you
You still warm the special place in my heart
My heart will always be your home
My love is with you wherever you go

Candlelit bath, wet skin rubbing
Blue light’s on us
Slow, hot kisses...hands in places…

After we make love, I’ll hold you in my arms and
Sing you a lullaby

ALONE
Words and music by Earl Harville
Verse 1
Lately, I feel all alone
An island to myself
No hand to hold, no shoulder to lean on
No arms to hold me close
Is anybody listening?
Can anyone hear my heart?
Can you see behind the laugh and smile?
See how well I play the part?
Verse 2
Lately, I feel so alone
Like my voice is left unheard
Misunderstood, the odd man out
For real, the silence burns
Is anybody listening?
Can anyone hear my heart?
Can you see behind the laugh and smile?
See how well I play the part?
Coda
But I still carry on

HANG ON
Words and music by Earl Harville
Verse 1
So scared, overwhelmed
Feeling helpless, feeling alone
Cried so hard,
Felt like I couldn’t catch my breath
Chorus
Then I pray ‘help me,
Make a way for me,
Give me the strength to hang on’.
‘Help me,
Make a way for me,
Give me the strength to hang on’.
Verse 2
Can’t see the way through,
Can’t make the ends meet, can’t keep it together, no
Though I tried on my own,
But I couldn’t do it
Chorus
Then I pray ‘help me,
Make a way for me,
Give me the strength to hang on’.
‘Help me,
Make a way for me,
Give me the strength to hang on’.
Bridge
Worries seem to cloud your view,
Think the dream is over and done
But don’t give up just yet,
The breakthrough is just around the corner…..
Chorus
Then I pray ‘help me,
Make a way for me,
Give me the strength to hang on’.
‘Help me,
Make a way for me,
Give me the strength to hang on’.

CUTS JUST LIKE A KNIFE
Words by Earl Harville & Saundra Crisler
Music by Earl Harville
verse 1
Gazing out my window
At what seems to be a warm and sunny day
Finding only emptiness
That takes my breath away
pre-chorus
Just when I think I’m over you
Reality puts a beating on me
I’m only lying to myself
I’m still not over you
Chorus
It cuts just a knife
The pain is just unbearable
I cannot seem to find
A way out of this misery of mine
verse 2
I can’t believe it’s over
I can’t believe that you’ve gone away
I prayed someday you’d come back to me
With loving arms to stay
pre-chorus
Just when I think I’m over you
Reality puts a beating on me
I’m only lying to myself
I’m still not over you
Chorus
It cuts just a knife
The pain is just unbearable
I cannot seem to find
A way out of this misery of mine
bridge
I need to make peace with this
And get on with my life
But when I try to tear myself
There’s no place to hide (x2)
