House Of Love

AMY GRANT( 艾美葛蘭特 ) House Of Love歌詞
1.Lucky One

Lyrics:Amy Grant/Keith Thomas
Music:Amy Grant/Keith Thomas

You're the kind
When you love you love with all your might and
You're the kind
I would dream about at night
Now I'm the lucky one
Baby I'm the lucky one

You're the kind
That I want to be with in the dark and
You're the kind who is capturing my heart
And I'm the lucky one
Baby I'm the lucky one

And I have never been the one to fall in love so soon
But I could never face another night or day without you
Baby I'm the lucky one

You're the kind
With poetry and valentines and
You're the kind
Who will never ever leave
And I'm the lucky one
The luckiest girl
Baby I'm the lucky one

And I have never been the one to fall in love so soon
But I could never face another night or day without you
I'm the lucky one
Baby I'm the lucky one..


2.Say You'll Be Mine

Written:Amy Grant/Keith Thomas/Wayne Kirkpatrick

Chorus:Do you wanna be in love forever
Do you wanna make my dream come true
Let me be the one to kiss and hold you
Say you'll be my baby
Can you see the two of us together
Living in love this whole life through
Do you wanna be in love forever
Say you'll be mine

I can remember
When my mind was clear and free
Now there's a feeling
Coming over me
The sweetest attraction
That my heart has ever seen
I'm going crazy making sense of everything

Chorus

I really wonder
Is there magic in your smile
Taking me under
Got me acting like a child
Something about you
Hits me like an avalanche
I try to stand my ground
But I don't stand a chance

Chorus

Every time I close my eyes I dream about
Hugging you, holding you, kissing you boy
It's driving me crazy
But even if it takes forever
To win your heart and your love and your devotion
I know it's gonna be worth the wait

Chorus


3.Whatever It Takes

Written:Amy Grant/Keith Thomas/Gary Chapman

Face to face we embrace
We drink of love's sweetest wine
Whispered names fan the flames
Each touch is frozen in time
I can feel your heart
And the rhythm of it echoes through my soul
Well surely you know

Whatever it takes baby I'm gonna be there
Whatever it takes baby you've got to know
Whatever it takes to be true to you
Baby I'll do it somehow

Promises made to last
These are the hardest to find
Touch me now, let me know
Your love will always be mine
As the years go by
And the fire of my love surely grows
Baby you know

Whatever it takes baby I'm gonna be there
Whatever it takes baby you've got to know
Whatever it takes to be true to you
I'll love you to the end
Whatever it takes baby I'm gonna be there
Whatever it takes baby you've got to know
Whatever it takes to be true to you
Baby--somehow...

I wanna be true to you
I wanna be hugging you, kissing you
Loving you all of my life

Whatever it takes baby
Whatever it takes baby
I'm gonna give all of my love, all of my life
Whatever it takes baby
Whatever it takes baby
I'm gonna give all of my love till the end of time

Whatever it takes baby...


4.House of Love

Written:Wally Wilson/Kenny Greenberg/Greg Barnhill

Chorus:Well I'll bet you any amount of money
He'll be coming back to you
Ooh I know there ain't no doubt about it
Sometimes life is funny
You think you're in your darkest hour
When the lights are coming on in the house of love

You've been up all night
Thinking it was over
He's been out of sight
At least for the moment
But when something this strong
Gets a hold on you
The odds are ninety-nine to one
It's got a hold on him too

Chorus:

Now when the house is dark
And you're all alone inside
You've gotta listen to your heart
And put away your foolish pride
Though the storm is breaking
And thunder shakes the walls
Love with a firm foundation
Ain't never gonna fall

Chorus:

Though the storm is breaking
And thunder shakes the walls
Love with a firm foundation
Ain't never gonna fall

Chorus:


5.The Power

Written:Judson Spence/Tommy Simms

The Power...spoke the world into existence...raised the Son of
God from the dead...saves us from ourselves. 'For in Him we live
and move and have our being.' (Acts 17:28)

A king is crying from his throne
He had a queen but now she's gone
What is this magic that we seek
The mighty strong turn mighty weak
Every good girl hears it
Every bad boy fears it
No matter what I see
I believe, I believe

Chorus:
The power touches me
The power helps us see
The power holds my hand
The power drives me crazy

A flower grows, an old man dies
And through it all we still survive
A poor man screams but no one hears
Ain't nothing changed much through the years
Every bad day needs it
Every good day breeds it
No matter how it feels
When it's real you know it's real
Stronger than any bomb any man has ever made

Chorus:

And it won't take long to understand
Just how amazed I am

Open up your eyes and see
It won't take long to understand
Just how amazed I am

Every good day needs it
Every bad day needs it
No matter what I see
I believe, I believe
Stronger than any bomb any man has ever made

Chorus:

If I believe and you believe
And we believe everything is gonna be all right
It just might


6.Oh How the Years Go By

Written:Simon Climie/Will Jennings

In our times of trouble
We only had ourselves
Nobody else
No one there to save us
We had to save ourselves

And when the storms came through
They found me and you
Back to back together
And when the sun would shine
It was yours and mine
Yours and mine forever

Chorus:
Oh how the years go by
Oh how the love brings tears to my eyes
All through the changes the sould never dies
We fight, we laugh, we cry
As the years go by

There were times we stumbled
They thought they had us down
But we came around
How we rolled and rambled
We got lost and we got found
Now we're back on solid ground

We took everything
All our times would bring
In this world of dangers
'Cause when your heart is strong
You know you're not alone
In this world of strangers

Chorus:

And if we lose our way
Any night or day
Well we'll always be
Where we should be
I'm there for you
And I know you're there for me

Chorus:


7.Big Yellow Taxi

Lyrics:Joni Mitchell
Music:Joni Mitchell

They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
With a pink hotel, a botique, and a swinging hot spot
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got till it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot

They took all the trees and put 'em in a tree museum
And then they charged all the people twenty-five bucks just to
see 'em
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got till it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot

Hey farmer, farmer, put away your DDT now
Give me spots on my apples but leave me the birds and the bees,
please
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got till it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot

Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got till it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot

Late last night I heard the screen door slam
And a big yellow taxi carried off my old man
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got till it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot

Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got till it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot


8.Helping Hand

Written:Tommy Sims/Amy Grant/Beverly Darnall

Chorus:Everybody needs a helping hand
Take a look at your fellow man
And tell me what can I do today
Everybody needs a helping out
If that ain't what it's all about
Tell me what
What can I do
What can I do today

We've all seen trouble from time to time
There is a mountain ahead
i've got no strength to climb
If you're feeling that you're strong
Reach out to me
I hope this journey won't take long
But wont' you please
Have mercy

Chorus:

I'm talking 'bout the soul all alone
Needing the daily bread
Someplace to lay his head
And I'm talking about the neighbor on your street
Won't you look him in the eye
Take time to speak
That's mercy

Chorus:

Love one another
Sister and brother
Love is the only way

Chorus:


9.Love Has a Hold on Me

Lyrics:Amy Grant/Keith Thomas
Music:Amy Grant/Keith Thomas

I have found the perfect mystery
Love has a hold on me
Long before my life had come to be
Love has a hold on me
Love has a hold on me

Where do I come from
What does life mean
Is it not to know the one who made me

As I'm looking down the road ahead
Love has a hold on me
Someday when I breathe my dying breath
Love has a hold on me
Love has a hold on me

Where will I go
When this life is through
Back into the light that made me and you

Love has a hold on me
Something opened up my eyes to see
Love has a hold on me
Love has a hold on me

I don't have the answers to all of the questions
Running inside of my mind
But I can't help believe that
Understanding comes in time

Love has a hold on me
Something opened up my eyes to see
Love has a hold on me
Love has a hold on me

If I run, if I hide, I know inside
Your love has a hold on me
Tell me yes, tell me no, my heart will follow
Your love has a hold on me


10.Our Love

Written:Amy Grant/Tom Hemby
Arranger:Tom Hemby/Michael Omartian

I don't know what to say to you
Tears are on your face
You don't know how we'll make it through
Such a lonely place
But if you could read my mind
Then you'd understand
Even in times like these
I'm wanting nothing other than

Chorus:
Our love
You and me together
Our love
I'll stay with you
Our love
Our love our love is true

Oh won't you take me in your arms
That's where I belong
Together we are safe from harm
Together we are strong
I will hold your heart in mine
And guard it through the night
Let the stillness of this moment
Speak to us of all that's right

Chorus:

Our love
You and me forever
Our love
I'm made for you
Our love
Our love our love is true

Close your teary eyes and sleep
I'll watch through the night and keep

Chorus:


11.Children of the World

Written:Tommy Sims/Amy Grant/Wayne Kirkpatrick

Every life, every beating heart
Has a searching soul inside
Ever needing, ever seeking out
The meaning of life

I refuse to believe that we're only here to live and die
In the futile days of a faithless haze
Never asking why, why would I
When I've felt the hand of eternity
It's a legacy I will leave, I want to leave

For the children of the world
Every single little boy and girl
Heaven plants a special seed
And we must have faith for these

I will stand for the truth I've seen
So the truth is seen in me
I will give from the source of love
So all that I believe is handed down
For the road that's yet to be travelled on
By the ones who will carry one, I'll carry on

Chorus:
For the children of the world
Every single little boy and girl
Heaven plants a special seed
And we must have faith for these
Red and yellow, black and white
They are precious in the Father's eyes
Like the Father may we see
That they have a destiny
And give them the light of love to lead

Though the darkness around us now
To a place where hope is found

Chorus:


12.Politics of Kissing

Written:Cliff Magness/Amy Grant/Wayne Kirkpatrick

Oh, oh, oh
(That's the politics of kissing)
(Politics of kissing)

She's looking back to see if he's looking at her
They talk without any words
And then a smile is moving heaven and earth

She dreams of holding him tight
When the moment be right
Gotta be diplomatic a step at a time
Don't wanna blow it baby

That's the politics of kissing
To know when to show when to show your hair
First thoughts then second guessing
A sudden supply and demand
Balance of power baby
To hold or not to hold
That's the politics of kissing
Finding your way as you go, go, go...
How do you know

Head over heals and every move looking at you
But do you feel it too?
And if I'm moving closer, what will you do
Cuz I'm thinking please hold me tight
Am I the light in your eyes
Wish you had the power for reading my mind
Cause I'll never say it to you

That's the politics of kissing
To know when to show when to show your hair
First thoughts then second guessing
A sudden supply and demand
Balance of power baby
To hold or not to hold
That's the politics of kissing
Finding your way as you go, go, go...
How do you know

Oh, oh, oh...

Here what I'm saying to you
That's the politics of kissing
To know when to show when to show your hair
First thoughts then second guessing
A sudden supply and demand
Balance of power baby
To hold or not to hold
That's the politics of kissing

That's the politics of kissing
To know when to show when to show your hair
First thoughts then second guessing
A sudden supply and demand


13.Life's Gonna Change

Written:Amy Grant/Michael Omartian

Just like Tarzan swinging on a vine I move hard left but come
back right My life feels like a boomerang thrown It's far away,
then it's right back home

The giant pendulum, is swinging to and fro
This road we're riding on where does it go?
And maybe soon, it's gonna end, but then you never know
Hard as I try to get out of range
Life's gonna change, oh

Just when I'm used to the pouring rain
That's when the sun starts shining again
Life's gonna change

Why not smile while you got your smile?
The tears might come, might last awhile
You might as well live while you got your life
Cuz it's a little too late when it's time to die

The giant pendulum, is ticking off the days
I only blink and they have passed away
And that's why anytime I turn around, I'm still amazed
Hard as I try, to get it all arranged
Life's gonna change, oh

Just when I'm used to the pouring rain
That's when the sun starts shining again
Life's gonna change

(The sun is gonna shine) The sun is gonna shine on me
(The sun is gonna shine)
Hard as I try, to get it all arranged
Life's gonna change

Just when I'm used to the pouring rain
That's when the sun starts shining again
Life's gonna change (Life is gonna change, nothing ever stays
the same)
Life's gonna change

Just when I'm used to the pouring rain
That's when the sun starts shining again
Life's gonna change (Life is gonna change, nothing ever stays
the same)
Life's gonna change
Just when I'm used to the pouring rain
