"Love Leaves Someone Behind"
Lyrics By: Benoit Jutras / Sandra Botnen

In this town there is much more
than a circus giving what they look for
Unconciously people are drawn
to things that feel strong
They meander to their rightful place
and meet their challenges face to face

And if I could see, could see through time

In this town a woman decides
to change her fate or take it all by stride
She can't know what the future holds
or if she acts to bold.
Irony falls on my seeking to find
a story that leaves no one behind.

I don't want to leave
I'm scared to leave

A little effort tries to block it
but there's nothing that can stop it
Once a love has picked up speed
it's gonna leave someone behind to bleed

Everything's in constant change
Love is changing everything
So we run
No one wants to be left standing alone

And if I could see, could see through time
I'd dream to see no one left behind
And if I could just see through time
I would dream to see no one left bhind
And if I could see, if I could see through time
you know I would dream to see no one left behind
No one left behind
Left behind
No, no one

"Let Love Live"
Lyrics By: Benoit Jutras / Sandra Botnen

A dangerous thing is
hope when you have nothing else
a simple laugh
that was the past
Growing up too fast
I wanted freedom for the rest
I want to change "not" answers to
questions like "Why can't they get what they need?"

Please let them live
Let them be
Let them take what they must need
Give them love
Give romance
Give the child its fair chance
Let love live
Let love be
Let a human heart go free
Give courage
Give romance
Teach them all how they can dance

A dangerous thing is
hope when you have nothing else
open so wide
fragile inside
Innocent hands
Reach for warmth and a place to hide
The change will come
when we collide
when we collide

Please!
Let them live
Let them be
Let them take what they must need
Give them love
Give romance
Give the child its fair chance
Let love live
Let love be
Let a human heart go free
Give courage
Give romance
Teach them all how they can dance

Let them live
Let them be
Let them take what they must need
Give them love
Give romance
Give the child its fair chance
Let love live
Let love be
Let a human heart go free
Give courage
Give romance
Teach them all how they can dance

How they can dance
How they can dance

"Child in his Eyes"
Lyrics By: Benoit Jutras / Sandra Botnen

If you think
you've figured it out
And if you think
it's how it should be,
Tell me why
children suffer and then want to die...

So much love, courage,
knowledge, and hope
We still live loving,
do it in vain,
and our fight for freedom is still the same,
the same...

You can look at the man
with the child in his eyes
The boy cries when Man wants to die
He gives up in the future
next thing he falls in love with a smile...

And if you think
you figured it out
Tell me,
was it just chance
or did his heart choose?
And how can you know
when hearts are immune to the rules?

If you think
you figured it out
Tell me,
why an old man - must he
be humbled so?
Why do I ask
when it's time for the mind to let go?

If you look at the man
with a child in his eyes
The boy cries while Man wants to die
He gives up in the future,
next thing he falls in love with a smile...

If you look at the man
with a child in his eyes
The boy cries when Man wants to die
He gives up in the future
next thing he falls in love with a smile
He's alive
He loves one with no name but a smile

If you look at a man
with the life in his eyes
The boy laughs when Man wants to fly
He's revived,
He's alive
He loves one with no name but a smile...
