(Michael McDonald/Kenny Loggins & Ed Sanford)
I'm fading out of sight
My wheels are the only sound
Runnin' at the speed of sight
I can't slow down
Out on the open road
Racing to beat the night
No matter where I go
Guess I'll get there all right
So why don't I understand
What's trippin' me up
It used to be a simple thing
[Chorus:]
I can't hold on, I can't return

(Michael McDonald)
I met a man standing on the street today
Through his eyes, the world looked so grim
As if we all don't know just what it's like
When the rain falls down and the lightning strikes
But then girl, I've been runnin' most of my life
And I've been around long enough to learn
That one man's blue sky is another man's rain
And no matter what is in it for me, I only know for him

(Michael McDonald & David Pack)
Lost and lonely lives
Drifting like waves at sea
We make it day by day
Watching the world go by
In a moment when time stands still
From here we look out on forever
[Chorus:]
Darling, our love
One love that never fades away
Our love
This love will light the world on its way
Shattered, hopeless dreams
Sifting like grains of sand
We claim it and here we stay

(Michael McDonald & Amy Holland)
So easily said in passing
Always followed by some way out
You got me so dizzy
I'm wondering what it's all about
All this talk about us and the future
How real is this future you see
Maybe love's just a word thrown around
But it's important to me
Darlin' I've heard it all before
But I can't give up
Till I know for sure
[Chorus:]

(Michael McDonald & Randy Goodrum)
Sometimes it seems to me
A long and tender love
Is just not meant to be
It's just not of this world
The more we live with this love
The more we learn to ignore
We keep our feelings inside
Until we open the door
[Chorus:]
It's in my heart, it's in your eyes
It's waving us on
Till everything stops, everything dies
(we can't stop now, we've come this far)

(Michael McDonald/Chuck Sabatino & David Pack)
Girl, they ain't no way out
When something is meant to be
Darling, there ain't no doubt
I'm right where I want to be
So everything you see as the end of our road
I see as only a start
This ain't no time to stop before we begin
And though there's no promises
[Chorus:]
Everytime I think how good it could be
I start to be believe it's up to the stars

(Michael McDonald & Chuck Sabatino)
I'm not used to saying things like that
'cause all my best intentions fall so flat
But when it comes down to it
My love for you knows no limit, darling
I'll say, I'll do
[Chorus:]
Any foolish thing to call on your affection
Any foolish thing to show how much I care
Any foolish thing that we say might come about

(Michael McDonald & Grady Walker)
The sight of her ain't like before
For a lonely heart, you should feel much more
You left behind a time when dreams came true
And in this real and lonely world
We only do what we can do
All night long that telephone rings
You remember how you loved that girl
Now you think it don't mean a thing
It keeps coming back
So you turn away
Well, that's all behind you now

(Michael McDonald & Chuck Sabatino)
For the most part within ourselves
We've got all we need
And I don't mean to make you feel
Dependent on me
But for everyone there comes a day
When you need some help along your way
When that moment comes
[Chorus:]
I'll be you angel
When the going gets rough
(when your best ain't enough)
I'll be by your side
(all else has been tried)
And I ain't giving up
