Heroes In High Places

Your destiny's unsettled
The future is unclear
you find yourself wondering
Just what you're doing here
The rut you see you're stuck in
Doesn't have a gentle slope
But I tell you there's a way out
You don't have to give up hope

Reach out your hand, I'll take it
Ask for a path, I'll make it
Just put your trust in me
I won't let you down
I didn't die and rise again
To see you left without a friend
If you're looking for heroes in high places
This one wears a crown

You don't have to wander
Through the desert of despair
Running after each mirage
To find salvation there
The fool's gold of false promises
And things that cannot last
Won't get you what you're searching for
It's to me you must hold fast

Jersey Girl

I'm crazy 'bout a girl I've never met
And she's all that I can think of
She's the one I can't forget
I'm scared about the way she makes me feel
It would surely break my heart
If I found it isn't real
But I'm gonna take a leap of faith
And dream about her warm embrace

Oh Jersey girl, oh Jersey girl
Would you like to be my valentine
Oh please say you'll be my Jersey girl
Give this California boy your heart, be mine

We're supposed to get together in the spring
Down in the dirty south
At the Houston gathering
I just can't wait for the day
That I gaze at her sweet smile
And I have the chance to say
I'm so happy that we're finally here
And I have the chance to hold you near
