[audience cheering] With me awhile?

About eight month's ago we were asked to uh, write a song for that film.

That song is on our Escape album.

You might recognize this tune.

["Open Arms" playing] Lying beside you Here in the dark Feeling your heartbeat With mine Softly you whisper You're so sincere How could our love be So blind We sailed on together We drifted apart And here you are By my side So now I come to you With open arms Nothing to hide Believe what I say So here I am With open arms Hoping you'll see What your love means to me Open arms Living without you Living alone This empty house Seems so cold Wanting to hold you Wanting you near How much I wanted you home But now that you've Co me back Turned night into day I need you to stay So now I come to you With open arms Nothing to hide Believe what I say So here I am With open arms Hoping you'll see What your love means to me Open arms [audience cheering] [audience whistling] Thank you, Houston.

["Who's Crying Now" playing] [audience cheering] It's been a mystery But still they try to see Why something good Can hurt so bad Caught on a one-way street The taste of bittersweet Love will survive Somehow someway One love feeds the fire One heart burns desire Wonder Who's crying now Two hearts born to run Who'll be the lonely one?

Wonder Who's crying now So many stormy nights So many wrong or rights Neither could change Th eir headstrong ways You know what I'm talking about, Houston.

[audience screaming] And in a lover's rage They turn another page The fighting is worth Th e love they save One love feeds the fire One heart burns desire Wonder Who's crying now Two hearts born to run Who'll be the lonely one?

Wonder Who's crying now Only so many tears You can cry 'Til the heartache is over And now you can say Your love Will never die Whoa ooh ooh Ooh ooh Sing it for me, one time.

I want to hear you sing.

One love, feeds the fire Come on!

One heart, burns desire Wonder Who's crying now Two hearts, born to run Who'll be the lonely one?

Wonder Who's crying now Oh sometimes I wonder!

I called Neal up the other day And said, " How you doing?"

And he says, "I never felt so good."

I said,"The other night I talked to you you were feeling down in the dumps.

What's your secret?".

He says,"I found me a lady and son, right now, I am stone in love."

["Stone In Love" playing] Those crazy nights I do remember in my youth I do recall Those were the best times Most of all In the heat Wi th a blue jean girl Burning love comes once In a lifetime She found me singing By the rail road track Took me home We danced by moonlight Those summer nights Ar e calling Stone in love Can't help myself I'm fallin Stone in love Old dusty roads Led to the river runnin slow She pulled me down Oh, and in clover We'd go round In the heat Wi th a blue jean girl Burning love comes once In a lifetime Oh, the memories Never fade away Golden girl I' ll keep you forever Those summer nights Ar e calling Stone in love Can't help myself I'm fallin Stone in love Those summer nights Ar e calling Stone in love I can't help myself I' m fallin Stone in love Stone in love Stone in love Stone in love I'm crazy crazy About you baby So stone in love baby I'm crazy crazy crazy Ab out you baby Stone!
