BLOWING IN THE WIND



BLOWING IN THE WIND

BY Bob Dylan

Sung by Peter, Paul, and Mary

1. How many roads must a man walk down

2. Before they call him a man?

3. How many seas must a white dove sail

4. Before she sleeps in the sand?

5. How many times must the cannon balls fly

6. Before they’re forever banned?

7. The answer, my friend, is blowin’ in the wind,

8. The answer is blowin’ in the wind.

9. How many years must a mountain exist

10. Before it is washed to the seas?

11. How many years can some people exist

12. Before they’re allowed to be free?

13. How many times can a man turn his head,

14. And pretend that he just doesn’t see?

15. The answer, my friend, is blowin’ in the wind.

16. The answer is blowin’ in the wind.

17. How many times must a man look up

18. Before he can see the sky?

19. How many ears must one man have

20. Before he can hear people cry?

21. How many deaths will it take till he knows

22. That too many people have died?

23. The answer, my friend, is blowin’ in the wind,

24. The answer is blowin’ in the wind.

BROTHERLY LOVE

Sung by James Dean

1. We share the same last name and the same color eyes.

2. And we fought like tigers over that old, red bike.

3. “I’m batting first or you can’t use my glove.”

4. It wouldn’t take long until push came to shove

5. But we looked out for each other brotherly love.

6. You hated girls ‘til I had my first date.

7. I brought her home from the movies.

8. You stayed up late.

9. Three on a couch watching T.V.

11. I was smiling at her while you were laughing at me.

12. I won’t trade it for nothing brotherly love.

13. There’s a bond that brothers know

14. And it gets stronger as they grow.

15. The love, the time and miles can’t come between.

16. We disagree, but in the end

17. There will never be too close a friend

18. And brotherly love is something we all need.

19. They share the same last name and the same color eyes.

20. And they fought like tigers over that old, red bike.

21. Looking at them reminds me of us

22. They’re gonna fight and they’re gonna fuss.

23. They’ve got something special. It’s brotherly love.

23. Yes, we’ve got something special. It’s brotherly love.

BUTTERFLY KISSES

By Bob Carlisle

1. There’s two things I know for sure.

2. She was sent here from heaven, and she’s Daddy’s little girl.

3. As I drop to my knees by her bed at night,

4. She talks to Jesus, and I close my eyes.

5. And I thank God for all of the joy in my life. Oh, but most of all, for …

6. Butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer.

7. Stickin’ little white flowers all up in her hair.

8. “Walk beside the pony, Daddy, it’s my first ride.”

9. “I know the cake looks funny, Daddy, but I sure tried.”

10. Oh, with all that I’ve done wrong, I must have done something right.

11. To deserve a hug every morning, and butterfly kisses at night.

12. Sweet sixteen today, she’s looking like her momma

13. A little more every day. One part woman, the other part girl.

14. To perfume and makeup, from ribbons and curls.

15. Trying her wings out in a great big world. But I remember….

16. Butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer.

17. Stickin’ little white flowers all up in her hair.

18. “You know how much I love you, Daddy, but if you don’t mind,

19. I’m only going to kiss you on the cheek this time.”

20. Oh, with all that I’ve done wrong, I must have done something right.

21. To deserve her love every morning, and butterfly kisses at night.

22. All the precious time like the wind, the years go by.

23. Precious butterfly spread your wings and fly

24. She’ll change her name today. She’ll make a promise

25. And I’ll give her away. Standing in the bride room just staring at her,

26. She asked me what I’m thinking, and I said “I’m not sure,

27. I just feel like I’m losing my baby girl.”

28. She leaned over… and gave me…

29. Butter Kisses, with her mama there

30. Stickin’ little white flowers all up in her hair.

31. “Walk me down the aisle, Daddy, it’s just about time.”

32. “Does my wedding gown look pretty, Daddy?” “Daddy, don’t cry.”

33. Oh, with all that I’ve done wrong, I must have done something right.

34. To deserve her love every morning and butterfly kisses.

35. I couldn’t ask God for more. Man, this is what love is.

36. I know I’ve gotta let her go, but I’ll always remember

37. Every hug in the morning, and butterfly kisses.

CAT’S IN THE CRADLE

By Harry Chapin

2. He came to the world in the usual way.

3. But there were planes to catch and bills to pay.

4. He learned to walk while I was away.

5. And he was talking before I knew it,

6. And as he grew he'd say, "I'm going to be like you, Dad.

7. You know I'm going to be like you."

Chorus

And cat's in the cradle and a silver spoon.

Little boy blue and the man on the moon.

When ya’ coming home, Dad? (Son)

I don't know when, but we'll get together then Son. (Dad)

You know we'll have a good time then.

8. Son turned ten, just the other day.

9. He said, "Thanks for the ball, Dad. Come on let's play.

10. Can you teach me to throw?"

11. I said, "Not today. I got a lot to do."

12. He said, "That's okay!" And he walked away, but his smile never dimmed

13. And said, "I'm going to be like him, yeah. You know I'm going

14. to be just like him." CHORUS

15. Well, he came from college just the other day.

16. So much like a man I just had to say,

17. "Son, I'm proud of you. Can you sit for awhile?"

18. He shook his head and said with a smile,

19. " What I'd really like, Dad, is to borrow the car keys.

20. See you later. Can I have them please?" CHORUS

21. I've long since retired. My son's moved away.

22. I called him up just the other day.

23. I said, "I'd like to see you, if you don't mind."

24. He said, "I'd love to Dad, if I can find the time."

25. "You see my new job's a hassle, and the kids have the flu.

26. But it's sure nice talking to you, Dad. It's been sure nice talking to you."

27. And as he hung up the phone it occurred to me.

28. He'd grown up just like me, my boy was just like me. CHORUS

5. How was I to know he thought I hung the moon?

7. Came home late every night.

8. He never had too much to say,

9. Too much was on his mind.

10. I never really knew him. Oh, now it seems so sad.

11. Everything he gave to us took all he had.

12. Then the days turned into years.

13. And the memories to black and white.

14. He grew cold like an old winter wind

15. Blowing across my life.

16. The greatest words I never heard.

17. I guess I’ll never hear.

18. The man I thought could never die,

19. Has been dead almost a year.

20. He was good at business,

21. But there was business left to do.

22. He never said he loves me. Guess he thought I knew.

16. That never learns to live.

17. When the night has been too lonely

18. And the road has been too long.

19. And you think that love is only

20. For the lucky and the strong.

21. Just remember in the winter

22. Far beneath the bitter snow,

23. Lies the seed that with the sun's love

24. In the spring becomes the rose.

10. And a time to every purpose under heaven.

11. A time to build up, a time to break down.

12. A time to dance, a time to mourn.

13. A time to cast away stones, a time to gather stones together.

14. To everything, turn, turn, turn.

15. There is a season. Turn, turn, turn.

16. And a time to every purpose under heaven.

17. A time of love, a time of hate.

18. A time of war, a time of peace.

19. A time you may embrace, a time to refrain from embracing.

20. To everything, turn, turn, turn.

21. There is a season. Turn, turn, turn.

22. And a time to every purpose under heaven.

23. A time to gain, a time to lose.

24. A time to lend, a time to sow.

25. A time for love, a time for hate.

26. A time for peace.

27. I swear it's not too late.

UNANSWERED PRAYER

By

Pat Alger, Larry B. Bastain, and Garth Brooks

Sung by Garth Brooks

1. Just the other night at a hometown football game

2. My wife and I ran into my old high school flame.

3. And as I introduced them, the past came back to me.

4. And I couldn’t help but think of the way things used to be.

5. She was the one that I ‘d wanted for all times.

6. And each night I’d spend praying

7. That God would make her mine.

8. And if He’d only grant me this wish I’d wished back then.

9. I’d never ask for anything again.

10. Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers.

11. Remember when you’re talking to the Man upstairs

12. That just because He doesn’t answer

13. Doesn’t mean he don’t care.

14. Some of God’s greatest gifts are unanswered prayers.

15. She wasn’t quite the angel that I remembered in my dreams.

16. And I could tell the time had changed me

17. In her eyes too it seemed.

18. We tried to talk about the old days wasn’t much we could recall.

19. I guess the Lord knows what He’s doing after all.

20. And as she walked away well I looked at my wife

21. Then and there I thanked the good Lord for the gifts in my life.

22. Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers.

23. Remember when you’re talking to the Man upstairs

24. That just because He may not answer

25. Doesn’t mean he doesn’t care.

26. Some of God’s greatest gifts are unanswered.

27. Some of God’s greatest gifts are all to often unanswered.

28. Some of God’s greatest gifts are unanswered prayers.

WHEN YOU SAY NOTHING AT ALL

By Don Schlitz and Paul Overstreet

Sung by Ronan Keating

1. It’s amazing how you can speak right to my heart.

2. Without saying a word, you can light up the dark.

3. Try as I may I can never explain

4. What I hear when you don’t say a thing.

CHORUS

5. The smile on your face lets me know that you need me

6. There’s a truth in your eyes saying you’ll never leave me.

7. The touch of your hand says you’ll catch me

8. Wherever I fall.

9. You say it best, when you say nothing at all.

10. All day long I can hear people talking outloud.

11. But when you hold me near, you drown out the crowd.

12. Try as they may they can never define

13. What’s being said between your heart and mine. CHORUS

WIND BENEATH MY WINGS

Sung by Bette Midler

1. It must have been cold there in my shadow

2. To never have sunlight on your face.

3. You were content to let me shine, that’s your way.

4. You always walked a step behind.

5. So I was the one with all the glory.

6. While you were the one with all the strength.

7. A beautiful face without a name for so long.

8. A beautiful smile to hide the pain.

9. Did you ever know that you’re my hero?

10. And everything I would like to be.

11. And I can fly higher than an eagle,

12. ‘Cause you are the wind beneath my wings.

13. It might have appeared to go unnoticed.

14. But I’ve got it all here in my heart.

15. I want you to know, I know the truth, of course, I know it.

16. I would be nothing without you.

17. Did you ever know that you’re my hero?

18. You’re everything I wish I could be.

19. I could fly higher than an eagle,

20. For you are the wind beneath my wings.
