Ooh Baby Baby (Smokey Robinson/Pete Moore)


Oooh...la la la la

I did you wrong, my heart went out to play
But in the game I lost you, what a price to pay
I'm cryin'

Ooh baby baby
Ooh baby baby

Mistakes, I know I've made a few
But I'm only human, you've made mistakes too
Im cryin'

Ooh baby baby
Ooh baby baby

I'm just about at the end of my rope
But I can't stop tryin' I can't give up hope
Cause I feel that one day I'll hold you near
Whisper I still love you
Until the day is here
Oooh, I'm crying

Ooh, baby baby
Ooh, baby baby
Ooh, baby baby
ooooh..........

Jessica (Roger Watras)

The touch of her hand on my face 
The smell of her hair in my nose 
Whenever she goes away from me 
My heart goes where she goes 

You may think that I'm just crazy 
But I hate when I leave her side 
Cos she fills me up when she's near me 
That's a fact I won't hide 

Jessica 
The name makes my heart soar 
A woman with such an effect 
That no ones ever had before 

She stands by me through everything 
Despite the hard time we endure 
She has become the world to me 
And everything I adore 

Jessica 
I'll say the name once more 
A woman with such an effect 
That no ones ever had before 

I want to make her proud of me 
Although sometimes i tend to fail 
She doesn't punish me for it 
She believes that I'll prevail 

Jessica 
She's the girl I adore 
Jessica, how much I love you 
And I will say it once more 

Jessica, I say to you now 
Take my hand, together we fly 
On the wings of our destiny 
It's meant to be, you and I 

Jessie (You Are Mine) (Roger Watras)

Every once in a while 
When I just need some grace 
I close my eyes tight 
And I picture your face 

To me you are a blessing 
Given from high above 
The only person 
To who I am in love 

Jessie you are mine 
And you always will be 
Your love is clear 
In everything I see 

Every once in a while 
When I am filled with fear 
I feel much better 
'Cos I know that you're here 

And once in a great while 
When i feel very sad 
Your presence here 
Makes it so it ain't so bad 

Jessie you are mine 
And you always will be 
Your love is clear 
In everything I see 

Every once in a while 
When I feel your love flow 
My heart starts to beat 
And my presence must glow 

Jessie you are mine 
And you always will be 
Your love is clear 
In everything I see 

Jessie you are mine 
And you always will be 
Your love is clear 
In everything I see

Can It Really Be (Roger Watras)

Can it really be 
How much he forgives me 
It took a while to see 
That His love is totally free 

I was a sin ridden man 
Full of pain and hatred 
And every day I lived 
I was so frusterated 

With Satan dogging me 
Trying to drag me down 
No matter where I went 
He was hanging around 

Can it really be 
How much he forgives me 
It took a while to see 
That His love is totally free 

It didn't take me too long 
to give my soul away 
And to this day I fear 
Where would I be today 

If the devil were still here 
I'd be living with hate 
But God had assured me 
That it's never too late 

Can it really be 
How much he forgives me 
It took a while to see 
That His love is totally free 

My soul is full of light 
Because the Lord is here 
No longer full of doubt 
No longer will I fear 

Can it really be 
How much he forgives me 
It took a while to see 
That His love is totally free

The Train (Roger Watras)

He sits at the train station, ready to run away
When that train comes along he'll hope for the best
He doesn't know what's ahead of him now
But he'll just step on the train and let God do the rest

As he waits he gets to thinkin' about the past
He thinks about what she did to his bruised heart
Like a demon on a good christian man
Let out her claws and tore his entire soul apart

Now he's gonna run away
Searchin' for a his soul to save
Knowin' there must be a way
Waitin' for a better day

Thinks about his preacher friend from way back home
Said that Jesus would always be with him
With such a friend like Him on his side
He figured the outlook couldn't be that grim

So now he's ready to run, ready to hide
From the ghosts that haunt his memory tonight
The train arrives and he gets onboard
He just no longer has the strenght for this fight

Now he's gonna run away
Searchin' for his soul to save
Knowin' there must be a way
Waitin' for a better day

He falls asleep and he starts to have a dream
He's runnin' away but gettin' nowhere fast
And in his mind the darkness begins to creep
And he figures out that the pain will still last

But from the darkness comes a bright new light
And a face he is sure he has seen before
Why are you leaving your life behind
When I have given you so much to live for

Why you gonna run away
Searchin' for your soul to save
Thinkin' there must be a better way
Hopin' for a better day

Go back now and return home where you belong
You're not yet ready to leave this life behind
I have yet to call you up above
So go back home and live, and you just might find

Your soul may be hurting, but not yet broken
You will see that there is so much to enjoy
I gave you these gifts from in my heart
These are all gifths I won't let you destroy

Why you gonna run away
Hopin' for your soul to save
Cause there surely is a better way
Surely is a better day

He awakes and he finds the train has broke down
So he jumps off board and he heads home again
He lives his life completly anew
And he never looks back, not now, not then

Now he'll never run away
Cause the Lord his soul did save
And now he's found such a better way
To make each day a better day

Friends Into Lovers (Roger Watras)

How could I have possibly known
That the glow on your face could shine so bright
After all I have never seen your face
Like I have seen it tonight

I tried to shake these feelings
Tried to keep my love far under cover
'Cause I'm so afraid of the result
Of friends who become lovers


Can friends turn into lovers?
Can the friendship survive the fall?
I don't see why not
Cause aren't lovers, friends after all?


We've been friends almost forever
And friends forever more we will remain
But if I don't hold you closer tonight
Honey I will just go insane

Just always remember something
If the love we feel now should ever end
That even if our love does not survive
My love, I'll always be your friend

Can friends turn into lovers?
Can the friendship survive the fall?
I don't see why not
Cause aren't lovers, friends after all?


The House at Pooh Corner (Kenny Loggins) [for Jess and Dylenn]

Christopher Robin and I walked along
Under branches lit up by the moon
Posing our questions to Owl and Eeyore
As our days disappeared all too soon
But I've wandered much further today than I should
And I can't seem to find my way back to the Wood

So help me if you can
I've got to get back
To the House at Pooh Corner by one
You'd be surprised
There's so much to be done
Count all the bees in the hive
Chase all the clouds from the sky
Back to the days of Christopher Robin and Pooh

Winnie the Pooh doesn't know what to do
Got a honey jar stuck on his nose
He came to me asking help and advice
From here no one knows where he goes
So I sent him to ask of the Owl if he's there
How to loosen a jar from the nose of a bear

Help me if you can
I've got to get back
To the House at Pooh Corner by one
You'd be surprised
There's so much to be done
Count all the bees in the hive
Chase all the clouds from the sky
Back to the days of Christopher Robin and Pooh

It's hard to explain how a few precious things
Seem to follow throughout all our lives
After all's said and done I was watching my son
Sleeping there with my bear by his side
So I tucked him in, I kissed him and as I was going
I swear that the old bear whispered "Boy welcome home"

Believe me if you can
I've finally come back
To the House at Pooh Corner by one
What do you know
There's so much to be done
Count all the bees in the hive
Chase all the clouds from the sky
Back to the days of Christopher Robin
Back to the ways of Christopher Robin
Back to the days of Pooh
