Believe in love - Darryl Anders~AgapéSoul

Believe in love
This is dedicated to the
two most important
people in my life
MoM - I know that every good thing that I am is because of
you. You told me long ago before I could even comprehend,
that I would do this.
Joni - This project could never have happened without you.
Thank you for patiently loving me thru this long process.
Standing beside me every step of the way, lifting me up when
things got rough, believing in me and helping me believe in
myself. This is our dream and now it has come true. I love you
now and always!
Special Thanks

these songs to life. I am eternally grateful for your friendship,
dedication and support throughout this journey.

Take a trip on a train your destination
Is anywhere at all
Walk a wire without a net you’d better be
ready cause one day you might fall
You’ll never know how easy until
you take the chance
To find out which is sweeter the
music or the dance
(Chorus)
Don’t stop believing don’t let ‘em turn
your head around
Don’t stop believing don’t ever let ‘em
bring you down.
You gotta believe in something it’s alright
if you believe in love
Take a look at the book to see where you
came from in it you will see
Knowledge is power knowledge is
wisdom to set your soul free
Now it’s no big secret it’s free for all
to share
Love is everlasting love is always there
(Chorus)
I believe in the beat to the break the
boom to the theory attraction reaction
the hype to the blight the hurt to the
hate the light to the fate the crime to
the punishment the fall to darkness the
loneliness the weariness the wanting
to the worthy the power to assert the
one the one the alpha omega the being
created while conceiving the element to
change which exchange and rearrange
to take on a new state of mind state of
being to live beyond the lust to teach to
trust to hold to help to heal to heed to
give back to relieve to further to nurture
to console build to achieve the passionate
release the fate the life the love the
fight to call the light to kill the hate and
the hype
Words are no substitute for passion
Don’t you know that lies never
take the place of truth
You can try to hide your pain
from me it’s useless
Cause I understand the hurt
that you’ve been thru
It’s alright if you don’t wanna talk about it
But if you ever feel the need
You can come to me and tell me all
about it
TELL ME WHERE
IT HURTS

(Chorus)
Lay your head upon my shoulder
I will be your rock
I’ll love you till the end of time
I’ll never ever stop
No need to be afraid if you
put your trust in me
Cause I got everything you want
and I got more than what you need
Time after time you’ve been the victim
In a cycle that would seem to have
no end
What you thought was love
was not the answer
No matter what you did
you never seemed to win
All the promises that seem
to end up broken
All the dreams that fade away still it’s not
too late to change the situation
(Chorus)
Tell me where it hurts
so I can make it better
Tell me where it hurts
I’ll kiss away your pain
Tell me where it hurts
I’ll dry your every tear-drop
You can lean on me (repeat)
I’ll be your shelter in the rain
DON’T SAY U
LOVE ME

I can’t believe that it’s come down to this
All I’ve got left are memories of a last
goodnight kiss
Love is a word that I used to believe
Mine was a heart that you chose to
deceive
(Chorus)
Don’t say u love me
Don’t say u need me
Don’t say u love me
Don’t waste my time
Time has a way that it
heals all your wounds
I’ve accepted the fact our
love is now thru
Today the phone rang and
your voice loud & clear
Said the words that before
I had once longed to hear
(Chorus)
How is it that you came here today
Thinking all my hurt would just fade away
Did you think that I’d never get over you
Did you think that I’d forever be your fool
Too late to turn back the hands of time
We were both too young and my heart
was blind
It took me some time now I realize
What I thought was love was really
just a lie
(Chorus, repeat)
(Chorus)
Time cannot erase what
the heart cannot forget
Time cannot erase
what a foolish heart regrets
You can’t run away from
what’s inside of you
Maybe forever I’ll be still lovin you
Now the nights are so much colder than
they were when you were here
I wanna reach out just to hold
you it’s the loneliness I fear
Didn’t know the way I’d feel when
everything was said and done
Now my heart may never heal now and
forever I’ll be the lonely one
(Chorus)
God only knows how I’ve
tried to make this wrong seem right
I’d give up the world for you
and spend the rest of forever
With you in my life
TIME CANNOT ERASE

(Chorus)
It was early in December
when I had to say goodbye
Even now I still remember
how it hurt to see you cry
Pride’s a selfish thing
but what’s it got to do with love
So I turned and walked away
and over my shoulder I heard you say
HEAVEN CAN HEAR uS

SIR DukE
Written by steVie WonDer
ProDuceD by D. anDers anD V. lars
Mirror mirror on the wall
tell me what you see
A voice from somewhere deep inside
dying to be free
Watch the world around you spinning
ever round and round
Someone always out there
trying to turn it upside down
So you’re looking for the answers yet
you’ve had it all the time
Right here in your heart the truth you’ll
always find
(Chorus)
Heaven can hear us
In the still of the night
Out of the darkness to hold up the light
Heaven can hear us if we only believe
Your reality is blinded
by the clever masquerade
Find no satisfaction
in the friends that you’ve made
They speak a different language
they live by different rules
Are they the movers & the shakers
or just stationary fools
If faith makes you afraid well then where
then will your wisdom lead you
When all is said and done who will be
there to receive you
(Chorus)
Let your faith be
strong unbroken unyielding
You’re just a grain of sand in this
kingdom he’s building
When the weight of the world
comes crashing down
Keep your head to the sky &
your feet on the ground
(Chorus)
VOICE OF REASON
Written by Darryl anDers
anD Joe Gilman
ProDuceD by D. anDers
anD n. Gallant
All around the world it’s clear to see our
ever-changing global history
We sacrifice the many for the few so that
selfish dreams we can pursue
We sold the broken pieces of the wall
before it even had the chance to fall
If we never learn from our mistakes how
many hearts will have to break before it’s
too late for us all
(Chorus)
Can you hear the voice of reason
see the world thru eyes of faith
Know that we can change the world
with the choices that we make
Can you hear the voice of reason
see the world thru eyes of faith
Knowing love is everlasting tell me do
you hear the voice of reason
Silence shattered by the screams of war
as felt in every heart at every door
To our children how do we explain in war
what we would ever hope to gain
To those who say that God does not exist
I suggest that we should tell them this
Learn to hear the voice inside your heart
for that’s the place where real love starts
the truth you can’t afford to miss
(Chorus)
SAY YOU WILL
Written by Darryl anDers
anD Joe Gilman
ProDuceD by D. anDers anD V. lars
I loved you and I let you go
Wish I knew then, the things
I’ve come to know
I miss you more than words
can say I want you back
Can you find it in your heart to take me
To a place we knew so long ago cause I
can’t live without you
(Chorus)
Say u will say you’ll be my lover
Say u will share my life
Say u will say you’ll stay forever
Say u will Say u will
Remember how it used to be
I thought that love came so easily
In my search to find some happiness
I traded more and ended up with less
Now I know I don’t deserve to hold you
Or an answer to my heart’s request
But if you ever loved me
(Chorus)
No one’s ever loved me quite like you do
Although some have lead my heart astray
Maybe I just had to learn the hard way
That life without your loves’ too big a
price to pay
(Chorus)
IF I EVER LOSE

If you’re foolin only foolin
All I ask is why?
If you’re playin, all I’m sayin is
Feelings sure can lie
If you’re lyin, keep on lyin
Don’t tell the truth don’t you dare
You can’t drop me cause you still got me
After taking me way up there
(Chorus)
Oh… If I ever lose this heaven
If I ever ever ever lose this heaven
Whoa I’ll never be the same
Oh… If I ever lose this heaven
If I ever ever ever lose this heaven
Whoa I’ll never be the same
When you’re kind extra kind
Then suddenly you’re crossed
You’re so moody you get to me
Still can’t turn you off
Fascinating more fascinating
Than the dark side of the moon
So exciting that I’m rewriting
This book of love called you
(Chorus)
