Wish That I Was There With You
(Jonathan Cain and John Waite)
Tommy "Mugs" Cain: Drums
Neal Schon: Electric Guitar Solo
Jonathan Cain: Bass, Acoustic and Rhythm Guitars
Wave good bye, feeling the distance
Home's where the hearts is
But I've got to go
And my faith, hopelessly persistent
Now I believe you're part of my soul
This lonely town...is tellin' me tonight
I'd be a desperate man
Without you in my life
All in a whisper...sending a prayer
I wish that I was there with you
Maybe tomorrow I'll wake, you'll be there
But it's just wishful thinking
You know that I care
'Cause when the lights go down
And I'm all alone
I wish that I was there
I wish that I was there with you
Oh baby now...with you
Close my eyes...imagine you're near me
Caught up in moments...memories of you
How are you...are you missin' me baby
'Cause I know what it feels like...
To be lonely for you
My empty heart is tellin' me tonight
I'd be a crazy man
To lose you in my life
All in a whisper...sending a prayer
I wish that I was there with you
Maybe tomorrow I'll wake, you'll be there
But it's just wishful thinking
You know that I care
'Cause when the lights go down
And I'm all alone
I wish that I was there...
I wish that I was there baby
(chorus)
Waiting On The Wind
(Jonathan Cain)
Tommy "Mugs" Cain: Drums
Glenn Letsch: Bass
Jonathan Cain: Acoustic Guitar
Steve Gornell: Slide Guitar
Livin' with a restlessness
That's never let me go
I need to feel I'm movin' on
It's what drives me in my soul
Sailin' through my younger years
As I moved from town to town
Blowin' like a hurricane
Seemed like nothin' slowed me down
Then it caught me without warning
I guess every journey has it's end
Now I struggle with the calmness
Till the spirit comes again,
The spirit moves me again
Waiting on the wind
Driftin' on still waters
It seems my life's on hold
And I don't know where I'm goin'
Pray the trade winds will find my ship in order
It's the silence and uncertainty
That make me look within
Till I've learned from where I've been
I'm just waiting on the wind
Things I took for granted
Victories of my past
All come back to haunt me now
Are they gonna be my last
So I test my faith again
As I wait to chase my dream
I'm at the mercy..of what will be my destiny
Now that I've had a taste of glory
It's tough to take, this twist of fate
Sometimes I feel I'm just turnin' out of time
Waiting on the wind
Driftin' on still waters
It seems my life's on hold
And I don't know where I'm goin'
Pray the trade winds will find my ship in order
It's the silence and uncertainty
That make me look within
Till I've learned from where I've been
I'm just waiting on the wind
Something Sacred
(Jonathan Cain and Andre Pessis)
Steve Smith: Drums
Mario Cippalina: Bass
Lyle Workman: Guitar
Annie Stocking: Background Vocals
Marisa Kerry: Background Vocals
Lora Leigh Christiansen: Background Vocals
I've seen a mountain crumble into dust
And faceless men trying to sell religion
In tall steel towers
Built on promises that've turned to rust
These times we're living in
Who you gonna trust
Out of the wreckage and the chaos
Stands a solitary rose
A touch of beauty in a savage garden
On the winds of mercy
I found you and the miracle grows
In a faithless world, baby we got
Something sacred
We can hold onto
A higher ground I've found with you
Something sacred
A prayer come true
Love we can believe in
We found an island in a hungry sea
A sheltered world
The rock of our salvation
But we got lucky
We were rescued by what's meant to be
Heart and soul...baby you and me got
Something sacred
We can hold onto
A higher ground I've found with you
Something sacred
A prayer come true
Love we can believe in
We've walked in the shadows
Had our share of lonely nights
We've lost some battles
Somehow we never gave up the fight but
We could see the light
Full Circle
(Jonathan Cain and Andre Pessis)
Tommy "Mugs" Cain: Drums

Jenny Meltzer: Background Vocals
Becky West: Background Vocals
Now your luck's run out
And the time has come
To reinvent your world
'Cause instead of getting better
You got older
So you take a chance, go against the odds
To make the big wheel spin
Praying there's an angel on your shoulder
You've been dreaming about happy endings
There's only starting over again
Life goes on; we come back around
Full circle
It's funny somehow
We're back where we started
Full circle
As you take her hand with a band of gold
And you promise all your love
The wedding bells don't always ring forever
When the clock has stopped, gotta wind it up
So the pendulum will swing
Rediscover why we came together
On the way to losing each other
You fall in love all over again
Back To The Innocence
(Jonathan Cain)
Standing in my playground
How I love to hear the sounds
Ringing hope the children know
How to let the magic out...I'd be there
Through the endless summers
Seemed like life was ours to taste
Golden years before the fears
I've seen ghosts of days gone by
Telling me dreams don't die
Like chasing a fly ball in center field
And holding hands at a high school dance
I'm drifting in time and it's taking me
Back to the innocence
Back to the innocence
These days I lose my vision
And I feel my years of age
And through denial forget my smile
The cruel games we play I know the child dep inside me
Is forever in my heart
And now pray a chance one day
To have children of my own
Share the blessing I have known
Little River
(Jonathan Cain)
Steve Smith: Drums
Glenn Letsch: Bass
Jonathan Cain: Acoustic 12-String Guitar
The morning you were born
The rain came down
I felt it wash my fears away
Showing me a mirror to my soul
Reflections of a brand new day
Run, little river, a world waits for you
As you wind through fields of dreams
My love will see you through
Born to be as part of me
Where waters flow as one
Run, little river, run
I watch you getting stronger every day
Where you turn the flowers grow
There'll be times when things get in your way
My faith in you will roll away the stones
Run, little river, the world waits for you
As you wind through fields of dreams
My love will see you through
Through my life I search for
Pease that you have now, and the secrets
Of your journey run so deep
Baptize me in your waters
See my spirit free
And into the sea you'll flow...
As I learn to let you go
Faithfully
(Jonathan Cain)
Tommy "Mugs" Cain: Drums
Glenn Letsch: Bass
Neal Schon: Guitar
Jonathan Cain: Acoustic Guitar
Highway run...into the midnight sun
Wheels' goin' round...you're on my mind
Restless hearts...will sleep alone tonight
Sending all my love...along the wire
They say that the road ain't no place
To start a family...but right down the line
It's been you and me
And lovin' a music man ain't always what it's
Supposed to be
Oh girl...you stand by me
I'm forever yours...faithfully
Circus life under the big top world
We all need the clowns to make us smile
Through space and time always another show
Wondrin' where I am lost without you
And bein' apart ain't easy on this love affair
Two strangers learn to fall in love again
And I get the joy of rediscovering you
Oh girl...you stand by me
I'm forever yours...faithfully
Faithfully...I'm still yours...forever yours
Just The Thought Of Losing You
(Jonathan Cain and Michael Bolton)
Tommy "Mugs" Cain: Drums
Jonathan Cain: Bass and Acoustic Guitar
Two different worlds...somehow
Find a way to come together
Moving so close...until now
And we find ourselves alone
So it's one more lonely night
I tried to feel like it was over
But just the thought of losin' you
And the emptiness...is more than I could take
Livin' without lovin you
My senses all break down
Oh I'm lost at just the thought of losin' you
All of my life...no one else
Ever meant enough to hold me
I've been afraid of my self
And the way I needed you
You've been waiting much too long
And I don't need to think it over
But just the thought of losin' you
And the emptiness...is more than I could take
Livin' without lovin' you
My senses all break down
Oh I'm lost at just the though of losin' you
The thought of losin' you
I've looked for you too long
Women Never Forget

Becky West: Background Vocals
Rover, move over now
Daddy's home from the war
I have been in this dog house
A few times before
She still gets so mad somehow
White lies I told in vain
I didn't know these clouds
Could bring so much rain
You try to say you're sorry
At least a hundred times
But she replays mistakes you've made
With a photographic mind
She's your judge and jury
And you ain't been pardoned yet
You might find forgiveness, boy
but women never forget
I played the Romeo
I played the lover boy
And she came into my house
And threw away my toys
Oh, brother don't you know
Memories are built to last
As you walk into your future
You're gonna bump into your past
You better face up to the truth
Everybody plays the fool
Get down on your knees
'Cause her love's worth the blues
My Old Man
(Jonathan Cain)
Steve Smith: Drums
Myron Dave: Bass
Lyle Workman: Guitar and Mandolin
Ralph Hartley: Background Vocals
Looking back, when I was growing up
How he'd guide me with his hand
I always saw in my father's eyes
What it takes to be a man
He was dedicated to the family trust
Swear we'd never let each other down
Born a saint, under a Southern Cross
Wandered to the midwest skyline
For forty years, he gave his life
To his woman and his dreams
Sure, all my memories
Will all trace back to him
You know I'll miss you
Now that you have gone
There's no love
That could ever take the place
Of me and my old man
A father's son is coming home to stay
To the one that understands
We'd talk it out or drink all night
Remembering what I am
Remember my old man
Distant Shores
(Jonathan Cain and Robbie Patton)
Steve Smith: Drums
Myron Dave: Bass
Lyle Workman: Guitar
Soft reflections inviting my eyes
Fill my darkness with a warm harbor light
Oh babe...you cared and I was saved
And from distant shores
You have brought me home again
Across the water you can follow the stars
Look a lifetime
Still now know who you are
Oh babe...you know I'm here to stay
And from distant shores
You have brought me home again
Winds wold me that you would hold me again
Ocean breezes would soon release me
And all my searching would end
There you go...inviting my eyes
Fill my darkness with a warm harbor light
Oh babe...you cared and I was saved
Just to lay down in your loving arms
Takes the emptiness away
And from distant shores
You have brought me home again
When The Spirit Comes
(Jonathan Cain)

Marisa Kerry: Background Vocals
Leigh Christiansen: Background Vocals
Surrounded in a moment
A touch of magic in the air
We all are joined together
Anticipation's everywhere
Know the faithful
Come for what they need
One congregation rising to their feet
And I want to be there listening
When the spirit comes
And share a celebration
In the beauty of a song
When the spirit comes
Some people wait a lifetime
To be touched by the light
To be a part of something
Amazing grace, so rare, so right
In the presence some will never feel
Only shines for those who still believe
And I want to be there listening
When the spirit comes
And share a celebration
In the beauty of a song
Lift our voices to the sky
Knowing we belong
And hope that he will stay awhile
When the spirit comes
When the spirit comes
Where miracles can happen
Our wildest dreams can come alive
Give us inspiration
Guiding our desires
Guiding our desires

I nearly drowned, when I was just a kid
It was lucky a man pulled me out when he did
I could've died young...
Before my life had begun
Stepped in a hold, I was goin' down fast
Had water in my lungs didn't think that I'd last
I remember that day.
It could've ended that way
He saw me going down from the end of the pier
From the surface waved me
From my deepest fears
Saint John pulled me from the water
Let me see the light of day
Saint John saved me from the shadows
I found my faith...on baptism day
Lifted me up under an Arkansas sky
Breathing life in my lungs
Bringing tears to my eyes
From a watery grace
Another soul be amazed
Carried me back to where my day had begun
Said goodbye said he had to run
At least a thousand lifetimes
Is what I saw in his eyes
I still feel the chill of the darkness near
Where all space and time seem to disappear
Saint John pulled me from the water
Let me see the light of day
Saint John saved me from the shadows
I'd found my faith on baptism day
I go on livin' everyday
With a deeper sense of pride
We're all here dying anyway
At least I've had a little mercy on my side
Yeah yeah yeah
Saint John pulled me from the water
let me see the light of day
Saint John pulled me from the shadows
On baptism day...
I could see there's a higher power
Take me to the river
Take to me some higher ground
Lay me in the water turn this lonely boy around
