What if... "Danny's Song"

Danny's Song

by Kenny Loggins

(hear it sung by Ann Murray)

People smile tell me I'm the lucky one.
And we've just begun,
I think I'm gonna have a son.
He will be like him and me.
Free as a dove concieved in love.
The sun is gonna shine above.


And even though we ain't got money,
I'm so in love with ya honey
Everything will bring a chain of love.
And in the mornin' when I rise,
It brings a tear of joy to my eyes,
an tell me evry-thing is gonna be alright


Love the girl who holds the world in a paper cup, drink it up.
Love her she'll bring you luck.
And if you find she helps your mind buddy take her home.
Don't you live alone.
Try to earn what lovers own.


And even though we ain't got money,
I'm so in love with ya honey
Everything will bring a chain of love.
And in the mornin' when I rise,
brings a tear of joy to my eyes,
an tell me evry-thing is gonna be alright

------------------------- 

I heard this the other day

as I was eating a bagel and thought,

 what if..., what if...  What if this was me...

Remember those times when

nothing much else mattered,

except holding on to one another.

Nothing but "I'm so in love with ya honey"

mattered at all.

Is that possible? Can it still be found?

What if I believe that it's all true...

"And even though we ain't got money,
I'm so in love with ya honey
Everything will bring a chain of love.
And in the mornin' when I rise,
brings a tear of joy to my eyes,
an tell me evry-thing is gonna be alright"

And just maybe....

What if?

 

What if... "Hello, it's me"

Hello, it's me
I've thought about us for a long, long time
Maybe I think too much but something's wrong
There's something here that doesn't last too long
Maybe I shouldn't think of you as mine

Seeing you
Or seeing anything as much as I do you
I take for granted that you're always there
I take for granted that you just don't care
Sometimes I can't help seeing all the way through

It's important to me
That you know you are free
'Cause I never want to make you change for me

Think of me
You know that I'd be with you if I could
I'll come around to see you once in a while
Or if I ever need a reason to smile
And spend the night if you think I should

It's important to me
That you know you are free
'Cause I never want to make you change for me

Think of me
You know that I'd be with you if I could
I'll come around to see you once in a while
Or if I ever need a reason to smile
And spend the night if you think I should

Think of me...
Think of me...
Think of me

I heard this the other day

as I was eating a bagel and thought,

 what if..., what if...  I heard God saying this

to me. A simple hello, and kind word,

Does the God of all the universe want to speak to me?

To talk to me like this... to say "I've 

thought about our relationship" to me.

"It's important to know you are free."

What if I believe that it's true...
What if God is imploring me with these words...

"Think of me... Think of me... Think of me..."

And just maybe....

What if?

What if... When I Need You

  

When I Need You

Leo Sayer

When I need you
I just close my eyes
And I'm with you. And
all that I so wanna
give you
It's only a heartbeat away.

When I need love
I hold out my hands
And I touch love. I
never knew there was
so much love
Keeping me warm night and day.

Miles and miles of
empty space in
between us
The telephone can't

take the place of
your smile.
But you know I won't
be traveling forever.
It's cold out but hold out
And do like I do.

 

When i need you
I just close my eyes
And you're right
here by my side.
Keeping me warm night and day
I just hold out my hands
I just hold out my hands
And I'm with you

-----------------------

I heard this the other day

as I was eating a bagel and thought,

 what if..., what if...  I were saying this 

not just to God, but to Christ himself.

How would this be heard? Received? Acted on?

Do I believe the presence is with me?
If I just hold out my hands... maybe....

just maybe....

What if?

What if... "D'yer mak'er"

Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You don't have to go oh oh oh oh oh
You don't have to go oh oh oh oh oh
You don't have to go

Ay ay ay ay ay ay
All those tears I cry ay ay ay ay ay
All those tears I cry ay ay ay ay ay
Baby please don't go.

When I read the letter you wrote
It made me mad mad mad
When I read the news that it brought me
It made me sad sad sad
But I still love you so, I can't let you go
I love you- ooh baby I love you

Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Every breath I take oh oh oh oh oh
Every move I make oh oh oh oh oh
Baby please don't go

Ay ay ay ay ay ay
You hurt me to my soul ay ay ay ay ay
You hurt me to my soul ay ay ay ay ay
Darling please don't go.

When I read the letter you sent me
It made me mad mad mad
When I read the news that it brought me
It made me sad sad sad
But I still love you so
And I can't let you go
I love you- ooh baby I love you

Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You don't have to go oh oh oh oh oh
You don't have to go oh oh oh oh oh
(Baby please don't go)  

  

~lyrics from "D'yer mak'er"

I heard this the other day

as I was eating a bagel and thought,

What if I heard God say this...

What if that longing for relationship 

that is expressed here came from above...

What if I were being wooed

in this way by the deepest love

of the universe...

what if it took God's breath away,

yes, and hurt God that I withheld

myself from the relationship...

What if the emotion and feeling of this

song summed all that up...

then I looked it up and read it. 

and thought, maybe, just maybe...

What if... "Just the way you are"

~ Billy Joel

You always have my unspoken passion
Although I might not seem to care

I don't want clever conversation
I never want to work that hard
I just want someone that I can talk to
I want you just the way you are.

I said I love you and that's forever
And this I promise from the heart
I could not love you any better
I love you just the way you are.

 ~excerpt(s) from "Just the Way You Are"

I heard this the other day

as I was eating a bagel and thought,

What if I heard God say this...

then I looked it up and read it. 

and thought, maybe, just maybe...
