Ralph Butts Lyr Req: songs by Tim O'Brien (16) Lyr Add: TENDERLY CALLING (Jan Camp Garrett) 21 Nov 98


Dennis......

The cockles & mussels Molly Malone is in the database. Just search [molly malone], using square brackets. I suspect this isn't the one you're looking for though.

Tenderly Calling sounds like a nice song, I'd like to hear it. Obviously based on the old Softly and Tenderly spiritual, which I always loved.

TENDERLY CALLING
Music & Lyrics by Jan Garrett
Copyright by Fool Child Music.
From the John Denver album "Different Directions"

    CHORUS
    Home, come on home
    Ye who are weary come home
    Softly and tenderly calling
    Home, come on home.

Sometimes when I'm feeling lonesome
And no one on earth seems to care
I'm all by myself in the darkness
With no one and nothing to share.

Just when it feels like it's hopeless
And I'll never make it alone
I hear the voices of angels
Tenderly calling me home.

    CHORUS

I try to keep it together
I never let on that I'm scared
Still sometimes I fall to pieces
Scatter and lost everywhere.

Just when it feels like there's no one
To mend all my broken-down dreams
I hear a voice deep inside me
Tenderly calling to me.

    CHORUS

So don't be afraid of the darkness
And don't run away from the storm
Stand up and face your reflection
The feelings you try to ignore.

After the tempest is over
You've let yourself come on through
You'll hear a voice in the silence
Tenderly calling to you.

    CHORUS
