Track Name: Tell Me No Lies
You've been sneaking all around
Dodging me and creeping all over town
But, I found you out

Don't tell me no lies
You've got a thin disguise
Tell me no lies
I can see the guilt in your eyes
Don't tell me no lies

Your strange behavior gave you away
I sensed you were cheating
Now you've got nothing to say
I hope it was worth it
To throw it all away
The life we built together
Now you've got Hell to pay
Cause I found you out

Does your other lover treat you right?
Or hold you in comfort all through the night?
And what about our daughter?
Did you ever wonder - what this would do to her?
When she finds you out
Track Name: Belle
Bleach blonde hair and a ring in her nose
Tattooed shoulder and trendy clothes

She's looking for a scene that's better than this
Cause her whole life is a big old mess

A free spirit I can hear her say
I'm living my life more everyday

Facing highs and lows of life on the road
Doubts and fears of being on her own
But she'll never give in
No she'll never give in
She's chasing her dream

You've got to hold on while you can
Stand strong, never give in
Believe in yourself
Believe, believe, believe
Don't ever give in

From the middle of nowhere to Beverly Hills
She's running on empty searching for cheap thrills

Models and club kids, surfers and soap stars
Parties at Dave's house and dancing at some bars

She's got nothing to lose when feeling this cold
All she really wants is a hand to hold
Track Name: I Believe In Love
Tell me what it is you believe in
Tell me what do you believe

Tell me what it is you believe in
Tell me please, please

Tell me what it is you believe in
Do you believe in me?

I believe in you - I believe in you and me
I believe in you - I believe it's all true

Tell me what it is you believe in
Tell me what do you believe

I believe in Love.

Do you believe in the power within your will
That you can just meditate and the world will fill
With peace on earth, goodwill towards men
Or maybe your kindness will cover your sins

Do you believe that killing in the name of God
Will win you some virgins at the strike of your rod
With the rest of us left in the chaos and blood
Sounds selfish to me - not selfless, or good

Do you want to live in fear for your life
In fear for your kids, in fear for your wife
Without joy or peace, just sickness and death
Sounds Hellish to me - I'd rather breathe my last breath

I believe we need to be extremists for Love
To cut through the darkness and rise up above
The hate, the injustice and the fall of man
Will you sacrifice your life for the plan?

To be an extremist for Love, not and extremist of hate
Like a dreamer once said - before it's too late
To whom much is given they say much is required
Stand up for Love and with Love we'll inspire
Track Name: Lonesome Heart
Lines that run across your face
Tell of hard times along the way
Memories, a familiar face
Takes you back to childhood days

Songs we sing when we are down
And times that trouble we have found
They help us feel that we can bear
Seeking relief from all our cares

Lonesome heart, lonesome heart - my only friend
Is weary from worrying
Oh lonesome heart

Clouds cast shadows down the road
But, God knows where you want to go
Soon you'll find where you belong
Let Love lead your heart back home

Lonesome heart, lonesome heart - my only friend
Is weary from worrying
Run over hard, places I've been
So weary, weary from worrying
So weary from worrrying
Track Name: How Great Is Your Love
My God is money in the bank
And my love is shallow and fake

Hiding cold, greedy hands
I depend on my own plans

I'm alive, but not really awake
I've been blind to everything at stake

Why do I fail to let go and trust you?
When, when will I try
To trust the love in your eyes

Shaken to silence
Why do I fight this
Leaving me breathless
How great is your love

The battle lines have been redrawn
The fight extends to my front lawn

Broken hearts and smoking guns
Tell me Lord what have I done

He said, "You open your heart, but you won't let go."
