Kenneth Clark Loggins(born January 7, 1948) is
an American musician, singer and songwriter. His early songs were recorded with
the Nitty Gritty
Dirt Band in 1970, which led to seven albums
recorded as Loggins and
Messina from 1972 to 1977. His early
soundtrack contributions date back to A Star Is
Born in 1976, and he is known as the King
of the Movie Soundtrack. As a solo artist, Loggins experienced a string of
soundtrack successes, including an Academy Award nomination for "Footloose"
in 1985. Finally Home was released in 2013, shortly after Loggins formed the
group Blue Sky Riders with Gary Burr and Georgia Middleman. He won
a Daytime Emmy Award, two Grammy Awards, and was
nominated for an Academy Award, a Tony Award, and a Golden Globe Award.
Leap of Faith is the seventh studio album by
American singer-songwriter Kenny Loggins.
The album was
released on September 10, 1991 by Columbia
Records. It was the first album Loggins released after a divorce,
and is notably longer than his previous solo albums. Singles
from the album included "The Real Thing," "If You Believe,"
"Now or Never," and "Conviction of
the Heart," the latter of which was later dubbed
"the unofficial anthem of the environmental
movement" by Vice
President Al Gore. "I
Would Do Anything" features Sheryl Crow who can also be heard in the title song along with Smokey Robinson.
Where are the dreams
That we once had?
This is the time
To bring them back
What were the
promises
Caught on the tips of our tongues?
Do we forget or forgive?
There's a whole other life
Waiting to be lived when
One day we're brave enough
To talk with conviction of the heart
And down your streets
I've walked alone
As if my feet were not my own
Such is the path I chose
Doors I have opened and closed
I'm tired of living
this life
Fooling myself, believing we're right when
I've never given love
With any conviction of the heart
One with the earth
With the sky
One with everything in life
I believe we'll survive
If we only try
How long must we all
wait to change
This world bound in chains that we live in
To know what it is to forgive and be forgiven?
Too many years of
taking now
Isn't it time to stop somehow?
Air that's too angry to breathe
Water our children can't drink
You've heard it
Hundreds of times
You say you're aware
Believe, and you care
But do you care enough
Where's your conviction of the heart?
One with the Earth
With the sky
One with everything in life
I believe it will start
With conviction of the heart
With the Earth
With the sky
One with everything in life
I believe it will start
With conviction of the heart
One Earth
One sky
Only one world
Only one chance
For one life
When will live
(With conviction of the heart)
One child
One dream
And only one life
Give her one chance
For one life
When will we live
Only one Earth
Only one sky
Only one world
We've only got one chance
To live in one life
I believe it's only
gonna start
When we begin with
Some conviction of the heart.
