  • There’s a River Lyrics

    Song Lyrics on Allspirit

    Steve Winwood

    Winwood/Jennings

    There’s a river pouring
    From a pure and a crystal stream
    And it carries my heart along
    Carries me all my life
    And I know it will bring me home

    There’s a choir singing
    With a force that can light the sky
    I will join with a voice deep inside
    Anthems for joys gone by
    And for joys I am sure will come

    Golden treasure in the evening sky
    It’s good to be alive
    Golden measure, hear the music cry
    When my heart sings
    Of golden things

    There’s a dove ascending
    Like my thoughts in the summer sky
    And she carries my soul along
    Clear to eternity
    And I know I am not alone

    Golden treasure in the evening sky
    It’s good to be alive
    Golden measure, hear the music cry
    When my heart sings
    Of golden things

    There’s a river pouring
    From a pure and a crystal stream
    And it carries my heart along
    Carries me all my life
    And I know it will bring me home

  • The Morning Side Lyrics

    Song Lyrics on Allspirit

    Steve Winwood

    Winwood/Jennings

    You meet every kind of person moving toward the morning side
    You see the good and the bad, the eyes are sad
    You play every midnight gambler before you see the light
    On the morning side, the morning side

    You feel every heat and passion moving towards the morning side
    To earn one more second chance, you learn the dance
    When you finally climb the mountain, you see the other side
    It’s the morning side, the morning side

    Now my life has changed and now my eyes can see
    Now I’m living on the morning side
    Now I’m letting all the sunlight into me
    Now I’m free

    And I know I’ll never pass that way again
    That dark journey to the morning side
    On the morning side I feel my life begin
    Let’s begin

  • Reach for the Light Lyrics

    Song Lyrics on Allspirit

    Steve Winwood

    (Weil)

    Balto Soundtrack 1995

    Deep in the night
    the winds blow cold
    and in a heartbeat
    the fear takes hold

    Deep in the storm
    there’s a place that’s soft and still
    where the road waits to be taken
    if you only will

    The voices inside you
    can lead your soul astray
    Believe in what you dream
    Don’t turn away
    don’t you turn away

    Reach for the light
    You might touch the sky
    Stand on the mountaintop
    and see yourself flying
    Reach for the light
    to capture a star
    Come out of the darkness
    and find out who you are

    Somewhere in time
    the truth shines through
    and the spirit knows
    what it has to do

    Somewhere in you
    there’s a power with no name
    It can rise to meet the moment
    and burn like a flame

    And you can be stronger
    than anything you know
    Hold on to what you see
    Don’t let it go
    don’t you let it go

    Now, there’s no turning back
    when your destiny is calling
    Listen to the thunder roll
    and let your heart break free

    Reach for the light

  • Higher Love Lyrics

    Song Lyrics on Allspirit

    Steve Winwood

    Winwood/Jennings

    Think about it, there must be higher love
    Down in the heart or hidden in the stars above
    Without it, life is a wasted time
    Look inside your heart, I’ll look inside mine
    Things look so bad everywhere
    In this whole world, what is fair?
    We walk blind and we try to see
    Falling behind in what could be

    Bring me a higher love
    Bring me a higher love
    Bring me a higher love
    Where’s that higher love I keep thinking of?

    Worlds are turning and we’re just hanging on
    Facing our fear and standing out there alone
    A yearning, and it’s real to me
    There must be someone who’s feeling for me
    Things look so bad everywhere
    In this whole world, what is fair?
    We walk blind and we try to see
    Falling behind in what could be

    Bring me a higher love
    Bring me a higher love
    Bring me a higher love
    Where’s that higher love I keep thinking of?

    Bring me a higher love
    Bring me a higher love
    Bring be a higher love
    I could rise above on a higher love

    I will wait for it
    I’m not too late for it
    Until then, I’ll sing my song
    To cheer the night along
    Bring it…Oh bring it…

    I could light the night up with my soul on fire
    I could make the sun shine from pure desire
    Let me feel that love come over me
    Let me feel how strong it could be

    Bring me a higher love
    Bring me a higher love
    Bring me a higher love
    Where’s that higher love I keep thinking of?

  • Put On Your Dancin’ Shoes Lyrics

    Song Lyrics on Allspirit

    Steve Winwood From the Album Roll With It 1988

    Winwood/Jennings

    So much going on out there, leaves us hanging in the air
    And it’s all that we can do to face each day and see it though
    Life’s a dance, put on your dancing shoes, take a chance

    You can’t shut your eyes to pain, faces crying in the rain
    You can’t keep it all inside, you need some way to let it ride
    Life’s a dance, put on your dancing shoes, take a chance

    When you’re all over, when you know you’ve done all that you can do
    Put on your dancing shoes, it’ll see you through

    Voices shouting in the street, life lived to a ragged beat
    Someone’s world is tumbling down, and who’s the saint and where’s the clown?
    Life’s a dance, put on your dancing shoes, take a chance

    When you’re all over, when you know you’ve done all that you can do
    Put on your dancing shoes, it’ll see you through
    When time is flying, when you know there’s no end to these modern blues
    Put on your dancing shoes, it’ll see you through
