&quot;You&#039;ve gotta dance like there&#039;s nobody watching,<br /> Love like you&#039;ll never be hurt,<br /> Sing like there&#039;s nobody listening,<br /> And live like it&#039;s Heaven on Earth.&quot;<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> ---William W. Purkey


I feel so alone
And it just won’t let me go
The doubt that is twisting my mind,
Shaking my faith, wasting my time

And I know I’ve got to be strong,
To keep carrying on,
But it’s such a long and lonely road,
Such a long way to go


And it’s a long, long way to heaven,
But I can’t stop thinking
About the golden dreams waiting on the other side

And it’s too much pain to bear,
And it’s a too heavy load to carry,
Still I can’t stop hoping
To hold the dreams waiting on the other side


In this path of the yellow bricks
Leading to Emerald City,
I’ve lost my way,
And I’m losing my sanity,
And I’m drifting away from my world of fantasies,
Help me,
I’m losing my fantasy sanity.



Can you send me an angel?
Some one to hold?
Can you send me an angel
To guide me down this road?

Can you send me an angel?
Can you send me an angel?
Can you send me an angel?
