Estas são algumas músicas que fizeram e fazem parte dessa história, do período que a conheci, umas pela melodia outras pela letra e outras ainda pelo conjunto. Cliquem em cima para ver a letra, lembrando que são todas retiradas do site Vagalume.
Nod your head to this as a lot of apprentice
Some of this were standing on the shoulder of giants
Some tryants some benevolent
To the followers it's relevant
The rest get bent on lending opinions
I'm sending to a brand new level
I revel in completion delition of suckers
Getting served like Smuckers Jam
Fool know rules but the rest keep bouncing back
With the lack of further adieu see
As one can deduce we
Slam the shit out hard and long
Cuz we got more song
Something you might like now
All-star bound
Yeah your so sound
Cool as the blue water all around
From a force field flashing
Aliens are sending
Black evolutions of love you are hearing
The dark supernatural is the world we call
Our own home lightning in the mind comes out in song
But we're wild they say never trust us we're shady
In lieu of the crew your into we are baby
Cuz music will be coming out the words we speak
We erect breakbeats shatter wax still on the platter
Our shit is badder we come fly then we scatter
Cuz we deep and we solid yeah we hear ya holler
Electricity running through is all that feels good
Sometimes the only thing that really ever could
Feed that hunger I crave it I love it I gave it
I shove it in a battery and save it for later
A waiter in the Dorothy C. Pavilion in '89
I met some wierdos and had myself a real good time
Downtown L.A. is a soul graveyard
Where you got to be hard or get jacked
It lacked a certain sense of something
Something basic no karm in he least I broke east
You know I had to face it
I guess I flaked but it was no mistake because
311's got the boom
My mic check is giving me
Electric company
I can't see the high wide sky
Or stars above me
Are you a flower
Or more like a high rise tower
If so the soul of sweet delight
On you will shower
There's a place for us they say is somewhere
Not a dream but a place and you will be there
Your slippin' but content because your spirit
And hills are alive with the sound of music
People never see the whole trip of life man
Grab knowledge and all you do is syph
I could stay awake just to hear you breathing
Watch you smile while you are sleeping
While you're far away dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
Every moment spent with you is a moment I treasure
Don't want to close my eyes
I don't want to fall asleep
Cause I'd miss you baby
And I don't want to miss a thing
Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you baby
And I don't want to miss a thing
Lying close to you feeling your heart beating
And I'm wondering what you're dreaming
Wondering if it's me you're seeing
Then I kiss your eyes
And thank God we're together
I just want to stay with you in this moment forever
Forever and ever
Don't want to close my eyes
I don't want to fall asleep
Cause I'd miss you baby
And I don't want to miss a thing
Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you baby
And I don't want to miss a thing
I don't want to miss one smile
I don't want to miss one kiss
I just want to be with you
Right here with you, just like this
I just want to hold you close
Feel your heart so close to mine
And just stay here in this moment
For all the rest of time
Don't want to close my eyes
I don't want to fall asleep
Cause I'd miss you baby
And I don't want to miss a thing
Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you baby
And I don't want to miss a thing
Don't want to close my eyes
I don't want to fall asleep
Cause I'd miss you baby
I don't want to miss a thing
Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you baby
And I don't want to miss a thing
Don't want to close my eyes
I don't want to fall asleep
And I don't want to miss a thing
On the first part of the journey
I was looking at all the life
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There was sand and hills and rings
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
And the sky with no clouds
The heat was hot and the ground was dry
But the air was full of sound
I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...
After two days in the desert sun
My skin began to turn red
After three days in the desert fun
I was looking at a river bed
And the story it told of a river that flowed
Made me sad to think it was dead
You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...
After nine days I let the horse run free
'Cause the desert had turned to sea
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
there was sand and hills and rings
The ocean is a desert with it's life underground
And a perfect disguise above
Under the cities lies a heart made of ground
But the humans will give no love
You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...
Tell me why
I love you like I do,
Tell me who
can stop my heart
as much as you,
Tell me all your secrets, and I'll
tell you most of mine,
They say nobody's perfect,
well, thats really true this time
I dont have the answers,
I dont have a plan
All I have is you,
So darling, help me understand
(What we do) - you can whisper in my ear
(Where we go) - who knows what happens after here
Let's take each other's hand as we jump
in to the Final Frontier
I'm mad about you baby,
Mad About You...
Can't you hear those cavalry drums
Hijacking your equilibrium
Midnight hags in the mausoleum
Where the pixilated doctors moan
Carnivores in the Kowloon night
Breathing freon by the candlelight
Coquettes bitch slap you so polite
Till you thank them
For the tea and sympathy
I want to defy
The logic of all sex laws
Let the handcuffs slip off your wrists
I'll let you be my chaperone
At the halfway home
I'm a full grown man
But I'm not afraid to cry
Neptune's lips taste like fermented wine
Perfumed blokes on the Ginza line
Running buck wild like a concubine
Who's mother never held her hand
Brief encounters in Mercedes Benz
Wearing hepatitis contact lens
Bed and breakfast getaway weekends
With Sports Illustrated moms
I want to defy
The logic of all sex laws
Let the handcuffs slip off your wrists
I'll let you be my chaperone
At the halfway home
I'm a full grown man
But I'm not afraid to cry
I know your eyes in the morning sun
I feel you touch me in the pouring rain
and the moment that you wander far from me
I wanna feel you in my arms again.
And you come to me on a summer breeze
keep me warm in your love then you softly leave
and it's me you need to show
how deep is your love
(Chorus)
Is your love deep is your love?
I really mean to learn
Cause we're living in a world of fools
breaking us down when they all should let us be
we belong to you and me.
I believe in you
you know the door to my very soul.
you're the light in my deepest darkest hour
you're my saviour when I fall
And you may not think I care for you
when you know down inside that I really do
and it's me you need to show How deep is your love?
(Chorus)
La da da da da, la da da da da da da da da da da
And you come to me on a summer breeze
keep me warm in your love then you softly leave
and it's me you need to show
how deep is your love
(Chorus) repeat to fade
When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we'll see
No, I won't be afraid
No, I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand
Stand by me
(Chorus:)
So darling, darling,
stand by me,
oh, stand by me
oh, stand,
stand by me
stand by me
If the sky that we look upon
should tumble and fall
or the mountains should crumble in the sea
I won't cry, I won't cry,
No, I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand
Stand by me
(Chorus)
There's an angel on the stairs
(as if you'd even care)
When the lights go up,
and the sun has nearly gone down.
Did you see him on the street?
Did you pass him at your feet?
Did you think aloud, "How dare they
even look me in the eye"?
And he loves the girls.
And he loves the boys.
Going to make twenty dollars
before the weekends over
So set him up,
Let him fall.
Turn him over in your hands.
God save the King of New Orleans.
Got a ticket to a show.
Going to see him take a blow.
When the drunk one said,
"Cat Sssstevens was the greatest singer!"
And did you kick him in the head?
Did you see the blood run down?
DId you laugh at all when the people walked right by and said
aloud,
"You gutter punks are all the same.
Probably make twenty dollars 'fore the weekends over."?
So set him up,
Then let him fall.
Turn him over in your hands.
God save the King of New Orleans.
Radio in my head.
Radio in that car.
Going down again,
he's going down again . . .
Anyway you look, anyway you talk it over.
It's easier to let it slip out of your mind.
But it rips your heart out.
Then it kicks your head in.
Just give him one more chance,
try to see the beauty in his world.
All the way in on my hands, in on my feet,
and shoulders. Going to make twenty dollars
before the weekends over.
So set him up,
Then let him fall.
Turn him over in your hands.
God save the King of New Orleans.
God save the King of New Orleans.
Measuring a summers day
I only find it slips away to grey
And the hours they bring me pain...
Chorus:
Tangerine, Tangerine
I live in reflection and a dream
I was her lover, she was my queen
I'm now a thousand years between
Thinking how it use to be
Does she still remember times like these
To think of us again
And I do...
(Guitar Solo)
Chorus:
Tangerine, Tangerine
I live in reflection and a dream
I was her lover, she was my queen
I'm now a thousand years between
One way or another, I'm gonna find ya'
I'm gonna get ya', get ya', get ya', get ya'
One way or another, I'm gonna win ya'
I'm gonna get ya', get ya' ,get ya', get ya'
One way or another, I'm gonna see ya'
I'm gonna meet ya', meet ya', meet ya', meet ya'
One day maybe next week, I'm gonna meet ya'
I'm gonna meet ya', I'll meet ya'
I will drive past your house and if the lights are all down
I'll see who's around
One way or another, I'm gonna find ya'
I'm gonna get ya', get ya', get ya', get ya'
One way or another, I'm gonna win ya'
I'll get ya', I'll get ya'
One way or another, I'm gonna see ya'
I'm gonna meet ya', meet ya', meet ya', meet ya'
One day maybe next week ,I'm gonna meet ya'
I'll meet ya' ah
And if the lights are all out I'll follow your bus downtown
See who's hangin' out
One way or another, I'm gonna lose ya'
I'm gonna give you the slip
A slip of the lip or another I'm gonna lose ya'
I'm gonna trick ya', I'll trick ya'
One way or another, I'm gonna lose ya'
I'm gonna trick ya', trick ya', trick ya', trick ya'
One way or another, I'm gonna lose ya'
I'm gonna give you the slip
I'll walk down the mall, stand over by the wall
Where I can see it all, find out who ya' call
Lead you to the supermarket checkout, some specials and rat
food
Get lost in the crowd
One way or another I'm gonna get ya'
I'll get ya'
I'll get ya', get ya', get ya', get ya'
Where I can see it all, find out who ya' call
Once upon a midnight dreary
I woke with something in my head
I couldn't escape the memory
Of a phone call and of what you said
Like a game show contestant with a parting gift
I could not believe my eyes
When I saw through the voice of a trusted friend
Who needs to humor me and tell me lies
Yeah humor me and tell me lies
And I'll lie too and say I don't mind
And as we seek so shall we find
And when you're feeling open I'll still be here
But not without a certain degree of fear
Of what will be with you and me
I still can see things hopefully
But you
Why you wanna give me a run-around
Is it a sure-fire way to speed things up
When all it does is slow me down
And shake me and my confidence
About a great many things
But I've been there I can see it cower
Like a nervous magician waiting in the wings
Of a bad play where the heroes are right
And nobody thinks or expects too much
And Hollywood's calling for the movie rights
Singing hey babe let's keep in touch
Hey baby let's keep in touch
But I want more than a touch I want you to reach me
And show me all the things no one else can see
So what you feel becomes mine as well
And soon if we're lucky we'd be unable to tell
What's yours and mine the fishing's fine
And it doesn't have to rhyme so don't you feed me a line
But you
Why you wanna give me a run-around
Is it a sure-fire way to speed things up
When all it does is slow me down
Tra la la la la bomba dear this is the pilot speaking
And I've got some news for you
It seems my ship still stands no matter what you drop
And there ain't a whole lot that you can do
Oh sure the banner may be torn and the wind's gotten colder
Perhaps I've grown a little cynical
But I know no matter what the waitress brings
I shall drink it and always be full
Yeah, i will drink it and always be full
Oh I like coffee
And I like tea
I'd like to be able to enter a final plea
I still got this dream that you just can't shake
I love you to the point you can no longer take
Well all right okay
So be that way
I hope and pray
That there's something left to say
But you
Why you wanna give me a run-around
Is it a sure-fire way to speed things up
When all it does is slow me down
But you
Why you wanna give me a run-around
Is it a sure-fire way to speed things up
When all it does is slow me down

I've been wandering around the house all night
Wondering what the hell to do
I'm trying to concentrate but all I can think of is you
Well the phone don't ring cuz my friends ain't home
I'm tired of being all alone
Got the TV on cuz the radio's playing songs
that remind me of you
Baby when you're gone
I realize I'm in love
The days go on and on
And the nights just seem so long
Even food don't taste that good
Drink ain't doing what it should
Things just feel so wrong - baby when you're gone
I've been driving up and down these streets
Trying to find somewhere to go
Ya I'm lookin' for a familiar face but there's no one I know
This is torture, this is pain
It feels like I'm gonna go insane
I hope you're coming back real soon
Cuz I don't know what to do
Childhood living, its easy to do
Things that you wanted
I bought them for you
Graceless lady
You know who I am
You know I cant let you, slide through my hand
Wild horses couldn't drag me a way
Wild wild horses couldn't drag me a way
I watched you suffer a dull aching pain
Now you've decided to show me the same
Wild horses couldnt drag me away
Wild wild wild horses couldnt drag me away
I know I've dreamed you a sin and a lie
I have my freedom but I don't have much time
Faith has been broken, tears must be cried
Let's do some living, and after we'll die
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild wild wild horses we will ride them some day.
You won't admit you love me
And so
How am I ever
To know
You only tell me
Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps
A million times I ask you
And then
I ask you over
Again
You only answer
Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps
If you can't make your mind up
We'll never get started
And I don't wanna' wind up
Being parted, broken hearted
So if you really love me
Say yes
But if you don't, dear,
Confess
And please don't tell me
Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps
If you can't make your mind up
We'll never get started
And I don't wanna' wind up
Being parted, broken hearted
So if you really love me
Say yes
But if you don't, dear,
Confess
And please don't tell me
Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps
Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps
Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps
Sounds to be where, you want to scream
Always left without, saying hello
I’ve seen chains that bear less, snap and fall long before you
let go
Times run over you sink onto my floor,
It’s ok, we’ve cleaned them many times before
Simple lessons are, simple lessons are, simple lessons are,
Simple lessons are, simple...
Sounds might be where, yeah I want to cry
Always left before, I said hello
He’s had days where shades of brilliance, never granted him
space
Green shades of painful rains, it’s ok, they’ll wash away now
Simple lessons are, simple lessons are, simple lessons are,
Simple lessons are, simple...
Always taught you how, drain yourself empty
Always taught you how, drain yourself empty
We’re all scarred up from ages of childish games
Yet I’ve never seen your head up higher
It feels real this time, I see you happy again
Reel in it for a while, oh enough to take my place
Sounds to be where, you want to scream
Always left without, saying hello
I've seen chains that bear less, snap and fall long before you,
Long before you let go
I should be able to get over yourself
nothing given means nothing can get kicked around
I fear you and I occasionally think too
your insecurity makes living life tough on me, but
I don't know if you'll feel this way all the time
hear me, I don't think you're right
and no...you got nothing to prove
And I ponder why you're always trying to take what's mine
hear me, I won't fight you
you know you've got nothing to prove
I'm always able to get over myself
I still remember how you helped me figure it out
but I fear you and I occasionally think too
your insecurity pollutes your path to purity, but
I don't know if you'll feel this way all the time
hear me, I don't think it's right
no...you got nothing to prove
and I ponder why you're always trying to take what's mine
hear me, I won't fight you
no, it's not my way
I guess now you know why I never called ... (x2)
I guess now you know why I .. yeah ..
We should be able to get over ourselves
time in small quantity I think would work very well
I don't know why you feel this way all the time
hear me, I don't think you're right
you know you've got nothing to prove
and I ponder why you're always trying to take what's mine
hear me, I won't fight you
no, it's not my way
I guess now you know why I never called ... (x2)
I guess now you know why I ...

Why drink the water
from my hand?
Contagious as you think I am
Just tilt my sun towards
your domain.
Your cup runneth over again.
Don't scream about
Don't think aloud
Turn your head now baby
Just spit me out
Don't worry about
Don't speak of doubt
Turn your head now baby
Just spit me out
Why follow me to higher ground?
Lost as you swear I am.
Don't throw away your basic needs,
Ambiance and vanity.
December promise you gave unto me
December whispers of treachery
December clouds are now covering me
December songs no longer I sing
Well i guess you left me with some feathers in my hand
did it make it any easier to leave me where i stand?
i guess there might not be too many who would stand beside you
now
where'd you come from? Where am i going?
why'd you leave me 'till i'm only good for...
waiting for you
all my sins...
i said that i would pay for them if i could come back to you
all my innocence is wased on the dead and dreaming
everynight these silhouettes appear above my head
little angels of the silences that climb into my bed and
whisper
"everytime i fall asleep everytime i dream
why'd you leave us 'till we're only good for...
waiting for you"
all my sins...
i said that i would pay for them if i could come back to you
all my innocense is wasted on the dead and dreaming
i dream of Michaelangelo when i'm lying in my bed
little angels hang above my head and read me like an open book
suck my blood break my nerve offer me thier arms
well, i will not be an enemy of anything
i'll only stand here
waiting for you
all my sins...
i said that i would pay for them if i could come back to you
all my innocence is wasted on the dead and dreaming
Anyone who's ever had a heart
Wouldn't turn around and break it
Anyone who's ever played a part
Wouldn't turn around and break it
Sweet Jane -2x
Ah, sweet, sweet Jane
Waited for Jimmy down in the alley
Waited there for him to come back home
Waited down on the corner
Thinking of ways to get back home
Sweet Jane -2x
Ah, sweet, sweet Jane
Anyone who's ever had a dream
Anyone who's ever played a part
Anyone who's ever been lonely
Anyone who's ever split apart

Heavenly blue-eyed roses
Seem to whisper to me
When you smile

Once there was this kid who
Got into an accident and couldn't come to school
But when he finally came back
His hair had turned from black into bright white
He said that it was from when
The cars had smashed him so hard
Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm
Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm
Once there was this girl who
Wouldn't go and change with the girls in the change room
But when they finally made her
They saw birthmarks all over her body
She couldn't quite explain it
They'd always just been there
Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm
Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm
But both the girl and boy were glad
'Cause one kid had it worse than that
'Cause then there was this boy whose
Parents made him come directly home right after school
And when they went to their church
They shook and lurched all over the church floor
He couldn't quite explain it
They'd always just gone there
Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm
Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm
Well I just heard the news today
It seems my life is going to change
I close my eyes, begin to pray
Then tears of joy stream down my face
With arms wide open
Under the sunlight
Welcome to this place
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
With arms wide open
Well I don't know if I'm ready
To be the man I have to be
I'll take a breath, I'll take her by my side
We stand in awe, we've created life
With arms wide open
Under the sunlight
Welcome to this place
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
Now everything has changed
I'll show you love
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
With arms wide open
I'll show you everything
Oh yeah
With arms wide open
Wide open
If I had just one wish
Only one demand
I hope he's not like me
I hope he understands
That he can take this life
And hold it by the hand
And he can greet the world
With arms wide open
With Arms wide open
Under the sunlight
Welcome to this place
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
Now everything has changed
I'll show you love
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
With arms wide open
I'll show you everything oh yeah
With arms wide open
wide open
Come see,
I swear by now
I'm playing time against my troubles, oh
I'm coming slow, but speeding.
Do you wish a dance?
And while I'm in the front,
My play on time is won.
Oh, but the difficulty's coming here.
I will go in this way
And find my own way out.
I won't tell you to be, oh no...
But I'm coming to much more.
Me...
All at once the ghosts come back
Reeling in you now.
Oh, What if they came down crashing?
Anyway, we used to play
For all the lonelyness that nobody notices now
Begging slow I'm coming here.
Only waiting.
I wanted to stay.
I wanted to play.
I wanted to love you.
I'm only this far
And only tomorrow leads the way.
I'm coming waltzing back and
Moving into your head.
Please.
I wouldn't pass this by.
Oh no, but I wouldn't take more than
What sort of man goes by?
I will bring you water.
Why won't you ever be glad?
It melts into wonder
I came in praying for you.
Why won't you run into rain and play?
And let it just splash all over you.
You've got your ball
you've got your chain
Tied to me tight tie me up again
who's got the claws in you my friend
into your heart I'll beat again
sweet like candy to my soul
sweet you rock and sweet you roll
lost for you I'm so lost for you
you come crash into me
and i come into you, i come into you
in a boys dream
in a boys dream
Touch your lips just so i know
In your eye, love, it glows so
I'm bare-boned and crazy for you
When you come crash into me, baby
And i come into you
In a boys dream
In a boys dream
If I've gone overboard
then I'm begging you to forgive me
In my haste
When I'm holding you so girl close to me
Oh and you come crash into me, baby
And I come into you
Hike up your skirt a little more
and show your world to me
Hike up your skirt a little more
and show your world to me
In a boys dream...in a boys dream
Oh i watch you there through the window
and i stare at you
You wear nothing but you wear it so well
Tied up and twisted, the way I'd like to be
For you, for me, come crash into me
I'm the king of the castle
You're the dirty rascle
Crash into me
Please crash into me, Babe
For this I see the wave go crash into me
I see the wave comin' crash into me
Crash into me
How can I turn away
Brother/Sister go dancing
Through my head
Human as to human
The future is no place
To place your better days
Cry freedom cry
From a crowd 10,000 wide
Hope laid upon hope
That this crowd will not subside
Let this flag burn to dust
And a new a fair design be raised
While we wait head in hands
Hands in prayer
And fall into a dreamless sleep again
And we wave our hands
Hands and feet are all alike
But gold between divide us
Hands and feet are all alike
But fear between divide us
All slip away
There was a window and by it stood
A mirror in which
He could see himself
He thought of something
Something he had never had but hoped would come along
Cry freedom, cry
From deep inside
Where we are all confined
While we wave hands in fire
Wave our hands
Hands and feet are all alike
But gold between divide us
Hands and feet are all alike
But fear between divide us,
Slip away
In this room stood a little child
And in this room this little child
She would remain
Until someone might decide
To dance this little child
Across this hall
Into a cold, dark, space
Where she might never trace her way across this crooked mile
Across this crooked page
Cry freedom, cry
From deep inside where
We are all confined
Till we wave our hands
How can I turn away
Brother/Sister go dancing
Through my head
Human as to human
The future is no place
To place your better days
Hands and feet are all alike
But gold between divide us
Hands and feet are all alike
But fear between divide us
Hands and feet are all alike
Hear what I say
Hear what I say
Oh, so be it
How can I turn away
Brother/Sister go dancing
Through my head
Human as to human
The future is no place
To place your better days
I hear more than I like too
so I boil my head in a sense of
humor... I laugh at what I cannot
change... I throw it all on the pyre
again... go then and do this
I'd do it for you... when all that I
want is so badly to be... by myself
again... it's going to drive me right
out of my brian
Drive in drive out I'm leaving
Drive in drive out
I'll come back again
Drive in drive out I'm leaving
Drive in drive out
I dont care if we all turn to waste...
so when i beg... you avoid
me... because I smell of dirt... hungry,
hungry boy... you won't leave me all
alone... the boy won't go
Sooner or later we're done
Sooner or later I'm gone
because, because
Sooner or later we're gone
Sooner away
Ooh, my head is pounding now... god
has all but left me behind... not a
sense of worry... I'm going to
drive in drive out again
Drive in drive out I'm leaving
Drive in drive out I'll come
Drive in drive out I'm leaving
Drive in drive out
I'm over this arrangement...
aournd here... emptiness
sounded so good... I want to
drive you right into my world
Drive in drive out I'm leaving
Drive in drive out I'll come
Drive in drive out I'm leaving
Drive in drive out
I let you down
Let me pick you up
I let you down
Let me climb up you to the top
So I can see the view from up there
Tangled in your hair
I let you down
I have no lid upon my head
But if I did
You could look inside and see what's on my mind
You could look inside and see what's on my mind
I let you down, oh, forgive me
You give me love
Let me walk with you, maybe I could say
Maybe talk with you, open up
And let me through
Don't walk away
Don't walk away
I have no lid upon my head
But if I did
You could look inside and see what's on my mind
You could look inside and see what's on my mind
I let you down
How could I be such a fool like me
I let you down
Tail between my legs
I'm a puppy for you love
I'm a puppy for you love
I have no lid upon my head
But if I did
You could look inside and see what's on my mind, oh it's you
I let you down
I'm a puppy for your love
I'm a puppy for your love
Forgive me
Forgive me
Forgive me
I let you down
When I step into the light
My arms are open wide
When I step into the light
My eyes searching wildly
Would you not like to be
Sitting on top of the world with
your legs hanging free
Would you not like to be ok, ok, ok?
When I'm walking by the water
Splish splash me and you takin a bath
When I'm walking by the water
Come up through my toes
To my ankles
To my head
To my soul
And I'm blown away
When I'm walking by the water
Splish splash me and you takin a bath
When I'm walking by the water
Come up through my toes
To my ankles
To my head
To my soul
And I'm blown away
I can't believe that we would
lie in our graves
Wondering if we had
spent our living days well
I can't believe that we would
lie in our graves
Dreaming of things that we
might have been
I can't believe that we would
lie in our graves
Wondering if we had
spent our living days well
I can't believe that we would
lie in our graves
Dreaming of things that we
might have been
Would you not like to be
I can't believe that you
would not like to be
Would you not like to be
ok, ok, ok
Swing in this tree
Oh I am bounce around so well
Branch to branch,
limb to limb you see
All in a day's dream
I'm stuck
like the other monkeys here
I am a humble monkey
Sitting up in here again
But then came the day
I climbed out of these safe limbs
Ventured away
Walking tall, head high up and singing
I went to the city
Car horns, corners and the gritty
Now I am the proudest monkey
you've ever seen
Monkey see, monkey do
Then comes the day
Staring at myself I turn to question me
I wonder do I want the simple
simple life that I once lived in well
Oh things were quiet then
In a way they were the better days
But now I am the proudest monkey
you've ever seen
Moneky see, Monkey do
Moneky see, Monkey do
So here we are tonight,
you and me together
The storm outside, the fire is bright
And in your eyes I see
what's on my mind
You've got me wild
turned around inside
And then desire, see, is creeping
up heavy inside here
And know you feel the same way
I do now
Now let's make this an evening
Lovers for a night, lovers for tonight
Stay here with me, love, tonight
just for an evening
When we make
our passion pictures
You and me twist up
secret creatures
And we'll stay here
Tomorrow go back to being friends
Go back to being friends
But tonight let's be lovers,
We kiss and sweat
We'll turn this better thing
to the best
Of all we can offer, Just a rogue kiss
Tangled tongues and lips,
See me this way
I'm turning and turning for you
Girl, just tonight
Float away here with me
An evening just wait and see
But tomorrow go back to your man
I'm back to my world
And we're back to being friends
Wait and see me,
Tonight let's do this thing
All we are is wasting hours
until the sun comes up it's all ours
On our way here
Tomorrow go back to being friends
Go back to being friends
Tonight let's be lovers, say you will
And hear me call, soft-spoken whispering love
A thing or two I have to say here
Tonight let's go all the way then
Love I'll see you,
Just for this evening
Let's strip down, trip out at this
One evening starts with a kiss
Run away
And tomorrow
back to being friends
Lovers...love...lovers
Just for tonight, one night...love you
And tomorrow say goodbye
I say my hell is the closet I'm stuck inside
can't see the light
and my heaven is a nice house in the sky
I got central heating and I'm alright
yeah, yeah, yeah can't see the light
keep it locked up inside don't talk about it
t-t-talk about the weather
yeah, yeah, yeah
can't see the light
open up my head and let me out little baby
'Cos here we have been standing for a long, long time
treading trodden trails for a long, long time, time, time, time,
time, time, time
I find sometimes it's easy to be myself
sometimes I find it's better to be somebody else
I see you young and soft oh little baby
little feet, little hands, little feet, little feet, little
baby
one year of crying and the words creep up inside
creep into your mind yeah
so much to say, so much to say, so much to say, so much to say
so much to say, so much to say, so much to say, so much to say
'Cos here we have been standing for a long, long time
can't see the light
treading trodden trails for a long, long time...........
I find sometimes it's easy to be myself
sometimes I find it's better to be somebody else
so much to say, so much to say, so much to say, so much to say
so much to say, so much to say, so much to say, so much to say
so much to say, so much to say, so much to say, so much to say
so much to say, so much to say, so much to say, so much to say
open up my head and let me out little baby
Straight in, suck up and go,
cool it, swallow, swallow
Breathe deep, take it all
it comes cheap
Push it through the doors
because in between the lines
I'm gonna pack more lines
so I can get in
Ooh traffic jam got more cars
than a beach got sand
Suck it up, suck it up, suck it up,
fill it up until no more
I'm no crazy creep, I've got it coming
to me because I'm not satisfied
The hunger keeps on growing
I eat too much
I drink too much
I want too much
Too much
I've got to get it somewhere
I mean, you never know, maybe you're dreaming
Who do you think you're watching
Who do you think you need
Play for me, play more,
ten times in the same day
I need more, I'm going
over my borders
I'm going to take more, more
from you, letter by letter
I eat too much
I drink too much
I want too much
Too much
I told, god, I'm coming
to your country
I'm going to eat up your cities,
your homes, you know
I've got a stomach full it's not
a chip on my shoulder
I've got this growl in my tummy
and I'm gonna stop it today
I eat too much
I drink too much
I want too much
Too much
Suck it up...
We were above
You were standing underneath us
We were not yet lovers
Dragons were smoked
Bumblebees were stinging us
I was soon to be crazy
Eat drink and be merry
For tomorrow we die
Eat drink and be merry
For tomorrow we die
We're tripping Billies
We're wearing nothing
Nothing but our shadows
Shadows falling down on
the beach sand
Remembering once, out on
the beaches
We wore pineapple grass bracelets
So why would you care
To get out of this place
You and me and all our friends
Such a happy human race
We're tripping Billies
We are all sitting
Legs crossed around a fire
My yellow flame she dances
Tequila drinking, oh,
our minds will wander
To wondrous places
So why would you care
To get out of this place
You and me and all our friends
Such a happy human race
Eat drink and be merry
For tomorrow we die
Eat drink and be merry
For tomorrow we die
Say, my love, I came to you with best intentions
You laid down and gave to me just what I'm seeking
Love, you drive me to distraction
Hey my love do you believe that we might last a thousand years
Or more if not for this,
our flesh and blood
It ties you and me right up
Tie me down
Celebrate we will
Because life is short but sweet for certain
We're climbing two by two
To be sure these days continue
These things we cannot change
Hey, my love, you came to me like wine comes to this mouth
Grown tired of water all the time
You quench my heart and you quench my mind
Celebrate we will
Because life is short but
sweet for certain
We're climbing two by two
To be sure these days continue
The things we cannot
Celebrate, you and me, climbing two by two, to be sure
these days continue, things we cannot change
Oh, my love I came to you
with best intentions
You laid down and gave to me
just what I'm seeking
Celebrate we will
Because life is short
but sweet for certain
We're climbing two by two
To be sure these days continue
Things we cannot change...
Things we cannot change
The moment I wake up
Before I put on my makeup
I say a little prayer for you
While combin’ my hair now
And wonderin’ what dress to wear now
I say a little prayer for you
Forever, forever you’ll stay in my heart
And I will love you
Forever and ever we never will part
Oh, how I’ll love you
Together, together, that’s how it must be
To live without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me
I run for the bus, dear
While riding I think of us, dear
I say a little prayer for you
At work I just take time
And all through my coffee break time
I say a little prayer for you
Forever, forever you’ll stay in my heart
And I will love you
Forever and ever we never will part
Oh, how I’ll love you
Together, together, that’s how it must be
To live without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me
I say a little prayer for you
I say a little prayer for you
Forever, forever you’ll stay in my heart
And I will love you
Forever and ever we never will part
Oh, how I’ll love you
Together, together, that’s how it must be
To live without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me
My darling, believe me
For me there is no one but you
Please love me too
I’m in love with you
Answer my prayer
Say you love me too
Why don’t you answer my prayer
You know every day I say a little prayer
I said I say, I say a little prayer
I can't hear what you're saying
What you're doing to me
It would take the jaws of life to pry open your words
so pry open your words
I don't want to talk about Elvis
No I don't want to go on pretending
It feels like I'm talking to
Talking to Charlie Brown's Parents
It feels like I'm talking to
A lonely man without a vision
Stuffed his mouth with indecision
Why he's a lonely man without a vision
Stuffed his mouth with indecision
I can't hear what you're saying
What you're doing to me
Can't you see
It would take the jaws of life to pry open your words
I don't want to talk about Jesus
And I don't want to go on converting, no
It feels like I'm talking to
Talking to Charlie Brown's Parents
It feels like I'm talking to
A lonely man without a vision
Stuffed his mouth with indecision
He's a lonely man without a vision
Stuffed his mouth with indecision
I can't hear what you're saying
What you're doing to me
Can't you see
It would take the jaws of life to pry open your words
Why he's a lonely man without a vision
Stuffed his mouth with indecision
He's a lonely man without a vision
Stuffed his mouth with indecision
I can't hear what you're saying
What you're doing to me
can't you see
It would take the jaws of life to pry open your words
to pry open your words
Animation
breathes a cloudless mind
Fascination
leaves the doubting blind
Until the circle breaks and wisdom lies ahead
the faithful live Awake
the rest remain misled
Some will transcend spinning years
One as if time disappears
Innocence faded
the mirror falls behind you
Trinity jaded
I break down walls to find you
Callow and vain
fixed like a fossil, shrouding pain
Passionless stage
Distant like brothers
Wearing apathetic displays
Sharing flesh like envy in cages
Condescending
Not intending to end
Some will transcend spinning years
One as if time disappears
Innocence faded
the mirror falls behind you
Trinity jaded
I break down walls to find you
Beginnings get complicated
the farther we progress
Opinions are calculated
Immune to openness
Beyond the circle's edge
We're driven by her blessings
Forever hesitating
Caught beneath the wheel
Innocence faded
the mirror falls behind you
Cynically jaded
The child will crawl to find you.
It came from the skies,
It burst through the gates.
With no mercy or disguise,
with their hearts set out in flames,
I know I've seen the master plan.
I'm just a man,(2)
I'm not giving in,
all the people understand
cause they all fell down and prayed,
I know I've seen the master plan.
They've killed the president,
they've killed the president.
It came from the skies, (2)
in all shades of green.
We can always justify,
we can measure up your dreams,
I know I've seen the master plan.
They've killed the president,
They've killed the president.
They've killed the president,
They've killed the president,
I'm just a man.
I'm so tired
Of falling in love
Finding it easier to fall out
Can't deny it
I feel it inside Cupid's fire
I can't hide
CHORUS:
I'm falling in love again
Ain't nothing I can do
Falling in love again
Girl this time it's with you
When I fall
It's always the same
And I'm so tired
Of playing this game
It's been so long now
Since I gave up my heart
I've kept it locked down
I don't wanna get it harmed
So let me tell you now
I just want to be sure
That you won't hurt me
Can you promise me that
CHORUS
You got to tell me
If you're going to break my heart
'Cos I don't wanna take the chance
And if it ain't true
All it's gonna be
Is nothing but a poor romance
So give me that promise to hold on
And I'll never let you go
We gotta have something to go on
I'm letting you know now
CHORUS
Save Tonight
Go on and close the curtains
All we need is candlelight
You and me and a bottle of wine
Going to hold you tonight
We know I'm going away
How I wish....wish it weren't so
Take this wine & drink with me
Let's delay our misery
Save tonight
And fight the break of dawn
Come tomorrow
Tomorrow I'll be gone
There's a log on the fire
And it burns like me for you
Tomorrow comes with one desire
To take me away....it's true
It ain't easy to say goodbye
Darling please don't start cry
'Cause girl you know I've got to go
Lord I wish it wasn't so
Save tonight
And fight the break of dawn
Come tomorrow
Tomorrow I'll be gone
Tomorrow comes to take me away
I wish that I......that I could stay
Girl you know I've got to go
Lord I wish it wasn't so
Save tonight
And fight the break of dawn
Come tomorrow
Tomorrow I'll be gone....
On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night
There she stood in the doorway;
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself,
'This could be Heaven or this could be Hell'
Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor,
I thought I heard them say...
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year, you can find it here
Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, she got the Mercedes bends
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat.
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget
So I called up the Captain,
'Please bring me my wine'
He said, 'We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty
nine'
And still those voices are calling from far away,
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say...
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
They livin' it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise, bring your alibis
Mirrors on the ceiling,
The pink champagne on ice
And she said 'We are all just prisoners here, of our own device'
And in the master's chambers,
They gathered for the feast
The stab it with their steely knives,
But they just can't kill the beast
Last thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back
To the place I was before
'Relax,' said the night man,
We are programmed to receive.
You can checkout any time you like,
but you can never leave!
I was standing
All alone against the world outside
You were searching
For a place to hide
Lost and lonely
Now you've given me the will to survive
When we're hungry... love will keep us alive
Don't you worry
Sometimes you've just gotta let it ride
The world is changing
Right before your eyes
Now I've found you
There's no more emptiness inside
When we're hungry...love will keep us alive
I would die for you
Climb the highest mountain
Baby, there's nothing I wouldn't do
I was standing
All alone against the world outside.
You were searching
For a place to hide
Lost and lonely
Now you've given the will to survive
When we're hungry... love will keep us alive
When we're hungry... love will keep us alive
When we're hungry... love will keep us alive.
A little less conversation, a little more action please
All this aggravation ain't satisfactioning me
A little more bite and a little less bark
A little less fight and a little more spark
Close your mouth and open up your heart and baby satisfy me
Satisfy me baby
Baby close your eyes and listen to the music
Drifting through a summer breeze
It's a groovy night and I can show you how to use it
Come along with me and put your mind at ease
A little less conversation, a little more action please
All this aggravation ain't satisfactioning me
A little more bite and a little less bark
A little less fight and a little more spark
Close your mouth and open up your heart and baby satisfy me
Satisfy me baby
Come on baby I'm tired of talking
Grab your coat and let's start walking
Come on, come on
Come on, come on
Come on, come on
Don't procrastinate, don't articulate
Girl it's getting late, gettin' upset waitin' around
A little less conversation, a little more action please
All this aggravation ain't satisfactioning me
A little more bite and a little less bark
A little less fight and a little more spark
Close your mouth and open up your heart and baby satisfy me
Satisfy me baby
As the snow flies
On a cold and gray Chicago mornin'
A poor little baby child is born
In the ghetto
And his mama cries
'cause if there's one thing that she don't need
it's another hungry mouth to feed
In the ghetto
People, don't you understand
the child needs a helping hand
or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day
Take a look at you and me,
are we too blind to see,
do we simply turn our heads
and look the other way
Well the world turns
and a hungry little boy with a runny nose
plays in the street as the cold wind blows
In the ghetto
And his hunger burns
so he starts to roam the streets at night
and he learns how to steal
and he learns how to fight
In the ghetto
Then one night in desperation
a young man breaks away
He buys a gun, steals a car,
tries to run, but he don't get far
And his mama cries
As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man
face down on the street with a gun in his hand
In the ghetto
As her young man dies,
on a cold and gray Chicago mornin',
another little baby child is born
In the ghetto
Mad About You Soundtrack
I like the feel of your name on my lips
And I like the sound of your sweet gentle kiss
The way that your fingers run through my hair
And how your scent lingers even when you're not there
And I like the way your eyes dance when you laugh
And how you enjoy your two-hour bath
And how you've convinced me to dance in the rain
With everyone watching like we were insane
Chorus
But I love the way you love me
Strong and wild, slow and easy
Heart and soul so completely
I love the way you love me
And I like to imitate ol' Jerry Lee
And you roll your eyes when I'm slightly off key
And I like the innocent way that you cry
At old top movies you've seen handreds of times
CHORUS
And I could list a million things
That I love to like about you
But they could all come down to one reason
I could never live without you..
CHORUS
Ooh Babe I love the way you love me
I walk the maze of moments
but everywhere I turn to
begins a new beginning
but never finds a finish
I walk to the horizon
and there I find another
it all seems so surprising
and then I find that I know
Chorus:
You go there you're gone forever
I go there I'll lose my way
if we stay here we're not together
Anywhere is
The moon upon the ocean
is swept around in motion
but without ever knowing
the reason for its flowing
in motion on the ocean
the moon still keeps on moving
the waves still keep on waving
and I still keep on going
Chorus
I wonder if the stars sign
the life that is to be mine
and would they let their light shine
enough for me to follow
I look up to the heavens
but night has clouded over
no spark of constellation
no Vela no Orion
The shells upon the warm sands
have taken from their own lands
the echo of their story
but all I hear are low sounds
as pillow words are weaving
and willow waves are leaving
but should I be believing
Then I am only dreaming
Chorus
To leave the thread of all time
and let it make a dark line
in hopes that I can still find
the way back to the moment
I took the turn and turned to
begin a new beginning
still looking for the answer
I cannot find the finish
It's either this or that way
it's one way or the other
it should be one direction
it could be on reflection
the turn I have just taken
the turn that I was making
I might be just beginning
I might be near the end.
If I could reach the stars, I'd pull one down for you
Shine it on my heart, so you could see the truth
That this love I have inside, is everything it seems
But for now I find, it's only in my dreams
That I can change the world
I would be the sunlight in your universe
You would think my love was really something good
Baby, if I could, change the world
If I could be king, even for a day
I'd take you as my queen, I'd have it no other way
And this love of ours would rule, this kingdom we have made
Till then I'll be a fool, wishin' for the day
That I can change the world,
I would be the sunlight in your universe.
You would think my love was really something good,
Baby if I could change the world.
Baby if I could change the world.
I could change the world,
I would be the sunlight in your universe.
You would think my love was really something good,
Baby if I could change the world.
Baby if I could change the world.
Baby if I could change the world.
Here is the money that I owe you
Yes so you can pay the bills
I will give you more
When I get paid again
I hate those people who love to tell you
Money is the root of all that kills
They have never been poor
They have never had the joy of
a welfare Christmas
(yeah) I know we will never look back (yeah)
You say you wake up crying
Yes and you don't know why
You get up and you go lay down inside
My baby's room
Yeah I guess I'm doing okay
I moved in with the strangest guy
Do you believe he actually
Thinks that I am really alive?
I will buy you a garden
Where your flowers can bloom
I will buy you a new car
Perfect shiny and new
I will buy you that big house
Way up in the west hills
I will buy you a new life
(yes I will)
I know all about that other guy
The handsome man with athletic thighs
I know about all the times before
with that obsessive little rich boy
They might make you think you're happy
Yeah maybe for a minute or two
They can't make you laugh
No they can't make you feel
The way that I do
I will buy you a garden
Where your flowers can bloom
I will buy you a new car
Perfect shiny and new
I will buy you that big house
Way up in the west hills
I will buy you a new life
I know we can never look back
Will you please let me stay the night
No one will ever know
I will buy you a garden
Where your flowers can bloom
I will buy you a new car
Perfect shiny and new
I will buy you that big house
Way up in the west hills
I will buy you a new life
I will buy you a new life
I am still living with your ghost
Lonely and dreaming of the west coast
I don't want to be your downtime
I don't want to be your stupid game
With my big black boots and an old suitcase
I do believe I'll find myself a new place
I don't want to be the bad guy
I don't want to do your sleepwalk dance anymore
I just want to see some palm trees
Go and try to shake your disease
We can live beside the ocean
Leave the fire behind
Swim out past the breakers
Watch the world die
I am still dreaming of your face
Hungry and hollow for all the things you took away
I don't want to be your good time
I don't want to be your fall back crutch anymore
I'll walk right out into a brand new day
Insane and rising in my own weird way
I don't want to be the bad guy
I don't want to do your sleepwalk dance anymore
I just want to feel some sunshine
I just want to find some place to be alone
We can live beside the ocean
Leave the fire behind
Swim out past the breakers
Watch the world die
I know it sounds funny but I just can't stand the pain
Girl I'm leaving you tomorrow
Seems to me girl you know I've done all I can
You see I beg, stole, and I borrowed
Yeah!
That's why I'm easy
I'm easy like Sunday morning
It's why I'm easy
Easy like Sunday morning
I wanna be high
So high
I wanna be free to know the things I do are right
I wanna be free
Just me
Oh babe!
It's why I'm easy
Easy like Sunday morning
It's why I'm easy
Easy like Sunday morning
I let the beast in too soon, I don't know how to live
Without my hand on his throat; I fight him always & still
O darling, it's so sweet, you think you know how crazy
-How crazy I am
You say you don't spook easy, you won't go, but I know
And I pray that you will
-Fast as you can, baby run-free yourself of me
Fast as you can
I may be soft in your palm but I'll soon grow
Hungry for a fight, and I will not let you win
My pretty mouth will frame the phrases that will
Disprove your faith in man
So if you catch me trying to find my way into your
Heart from under your skin
-Fast as you can, baby scratch me out, free yourself
Fast as you can
Fast as you can, baby scratch me out, free yourself
Fast as you can
Sometimes my mind don't shake and shift
But most of the time, it does
And I get to the place where I'm begging for a lift
Or I'll drown in the wonders and the was
And I'll be your girl, if you say it's a gift
And you give me some more of your drugs
Yeah, I'll be your pet, if you just tell me it's a gift
Cuz I'm tired of whys, choking on whys,
Just need a little because, because
I let the beast in and then;
I even tried forgiving him, but it's too soon
So I'll fight again, again, again, again, again.
And for a little while more, I'll soar the
Uneven wind, complain and blame
The sterile land
But if you're getting any bright ideas, quiet dear
I'm blooming within
Fast as you can, baby wait watch me, I'll be out
Fast as I can, maybe late but at least about
Fast as you can leave me, let this thing
Run its route
Fast as you can (repeat 4 times)
when I talk about it
it carries on
reasons only knew
when I talk about it
aries or treasons
all renew
big me to talk about it
I could stand to prove
if we can get around it
I know that it's true
when I talked about it
carried on
reasons only knew
but it's you I fell into
well I talked about it
put it on
never was it true
but it's you i fell into
Hello, I've waited here for you... Everlong.
Tonight, I throw myself into,
And out of the red, out of her head she sang.
Come down and waste away with me, down with me...
Show how, you wanted it to be,
I'm over my head, out of her head she sang.
And I wonder when I sing along with you,
If everything could ever feel this real forever.
If anything could ever be this good again,
The only thing I'll ever ask of you.
You gotta promise not to stop when I say when.
She sang:
Breathe out, so I can breathe you in,
Hold you in, and now, I know you've always been there
Out of your head, out of my head I sang.
And I wonder when I sing along with you,
If everything could ever feel this real forever,
If anything could ever be this good again.
The only thing I'll ever ask of you,
You gotta promise not to stop when I say when.
She sang:
And I wonder, when I sing along with you,
If everything could ever feel this real forever,
If anything could ever be this good again.
The only thing I'll ever ask of you,
You gotta promise not to stop when I say when.
Tonight I'm tangled in my blanket of clouds
Dreaming aloud
Things just won't do without you, matter of fact
I'm on your back, I'm on your back, I'm on your back
If you'd accept surrender, give up some more
Weren't you adored
I cannot be without you, matter of fact
I'm on your back
If you walk out on me, I'm walking after you
If you walk out on me, I'm walking after you
Another heart is cracked in two, I'm on your back
I cannot be without you, matter of fact
I'm on your back, I'm on your back, I'm on your back
If you walk out on me, I'm walking after you
If you walk out on me, I'm walking after you
If you walk out on me, I'm walking after you
Oh, your reputations so golden
You're never lonely and you're never home
I know you've been talking 'bout leaving
You've lost all your feelings for this town
Paint your nails and put on your lipstick
You don't want to miss your ticket out
Just because you graduate
From school so high in the
Gene pool, thats your point of view
But when you're broken down
And no one else is around
You'll come running back to this town,
And I'll be there, yes I'll be there
'Cause I remember how we drank time together
And how you used to say that the stars are forever
And daydreamed about how to make your life better
By leaving town, leaving town
Pack your bags, your smokes in your pocket
You're wearing my locket around your neck
Take a drag and wait for the Greyhound
The world is your playground, and you want to win
But when you're broken down, and no one
Else is around, you'll come running back to this
Town, and I'll be there, yeah, I'll be there
Cause I remember how we drank time together,
And how you used to say that the stars are forever
And daydreamed about how to make your life better
By leaving town, leaving town
Nothing in life will ever come that easy
Doesn't mean it has to be that hard
I know you'll find out who you are.....
But when you're broken down, and no one else
Is around, you'll come running back to this town
And I'll be there, yeah, I'll be there
'Cause I remember how we drank time together,
And how used to say that the stars are forever,
And you used to daydream about how to make your
Life better, by leaving town, leaving town
Oh, am I fooling you?
Do you fall for it all
or do you just see right through?
Are you as cool as you believe?
Are you playing hard?
Are you waiting just to quietly clock my card?
Are you waiting for a moment to leave?
I don't know how I bent what you said
to what I believe you meant
I don't know anything at all
I'm standing in the push and shove
and I'm just within the rescue
of the labour of your love
I can't do anything but fall
a-fall, a-fall-fall-fall
Why do I feel like I can never find you?
Why do I feel like I'm the only survivor?
Why am I thinking of -
you and me and the labour of love?
One chance, one shot
That's all anybody ever got
newborn still warm
Naked in the rush hour
Dancing in my gutter
and if you want to find me
Call me, I'll be far from
the cars and guitars and
Everybody
Why do I feel like I can never find you?
Why do I feel like I'm the only survivor?
Why am I thinking of -
you and me and the labour of love?
And I never knew before
but I feel like a child in a cold, cold war
So strong, so tough
Sitting in suburbia, waiting for the wind up
And I don't want to dance
I just want to jump from the prison of circumstance
why am I thinking of -
you and me and the labour of love?
Why do I feel like I can never find you?
Why do I feel like I'm the only survivor?
Why am I thinking of -
you and me and the labour of love?

Oh me name's Able Rogers, a share man am I
On a three masted schooner from Twillingate Isle
I've been the world over north, south, east, and west
But the middle of nowhere wheres' I likes it best
Chorus:
Where its wave over wave, sea over bow
I'm as happy a man as the sea will allow
There's no other life for a sailor like me
Then to sail the salt sea boys, sail the sea
There's no other life but to sail the salt sea
Well I leave my wife lonely ten months of the year
For she built me a home and raised my children there
She never come out to bid farewell to me
Or ken why a sailor must sail the salt sea
Chorus
Ah, the work it is hard and the hours are long
But my spirit is willing, my back it is strong
And when the work's over the whisky we'll pour
We'll dance with the girls upon some foreign shore
I've sailed the world over for decades or more
And oft times I wonder what I do it for
I don't know the answer it's pleasure and pain
But with life to live over I'd do it again
Chorus
On the day I was born, the nurses all gathered 'round
And they gazed in wide wonder, at the joy they had found
The head nurse spoke up, and she said leave this one alone
She could tell right away, that I was bad to the bone
Bad to the bone
Bad to the bone
B-B-B-B-Bad to the bone
B-B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-B-Bad
Bad to the bone
I broke a thousand hearts, before I met you
I'll break a thousand more baby, before I am through
I wanna be yours pretty baby, yours and yours alone
I'm here to tell ya honey, that I'm bad to the bone
Bad to the bone
B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-Bad
Bad to the bone
I make a rich woman beg, I'll make a good woman steal
I'll make an old woman blush, and make a young girl squeal
I wanna be yours pretty baby, yours and yours alone
I'm here to tell ya honey, that I'm bad to the bone
B-B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-B-Bad
Bad to the bone
Now when I walk the streets, kings and queens step aside.
Every woman I meet, they all stay satisfied.
I wanna tell you pretty baby, what I see I make my own.
I'm here to tell ya honey, that I'm bad to the bone
B-B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-B-Bad
Bad to the bone
Woke up to the sound of pouring rain
The wind would whisper and I'd think of you
And all the tears you cried, that called my name
And when you needed me I came through
I paint a picture of the days gone by
When love went blind and you would make me see
I'd stare a lifetime into your eyes
So that I knew you were there for me
Time after time you were there for me
Remember yesterday - walking hand in hand
Love letters in the sand - I remember you
Through the sleepless nights and every endless day
I'd wanna hear you say - I remember you
We spend the summer with the top rolled down
Wished ever after would be like this
You said I love you babe, without a sound
I said I'd give my life for just one kiss
I'd live for your smile and die for your kiss
Remember yesterday - walking hand in hand
Love letters in the sand - I remember you
Through the sleepless nights and every endless day
I'd wanna hear you say - I remember you
We've had our share of hard times
But that's the price we paid
And through it all we kept the promise that we made
I swear you'll never be lonely
Woke up to the sound of pouring rain
Washed away a dream of you
But nothing else could ever take you away
'Cause you'll always be my dream come true
Oh my darling, I love you
Remember yesterday - walking hand in hand
Love letters in the sand - I remember you
Through the sleepless nights and every endless day
I'd wanna hear you say - I remember you
Remember yesterday - walking hand in hand
Love letters in the sand - I remember you
Through the sleepless nights and every endless day
some dreams live on in time forever
those dreams, you want with all
your heart
and i'll do whatever it takes
follow through with the promise i made
put it all on the line
what i hoped for at last would be mine
if i could reach, higher
just for one moment touch the sky
from that one moment
in my life
i'm gonna be stronger
know that i've tried my
very best
i'd put my spirit to the test
if i could reach
some days are meant to be
remembered
those days we rise above
the stars
so i'll go the distance
this time
seeing more the higher i climb
that the more i believe
all the more that this
dream will be mine
if i could reach, higher
just for one moment touch
the sky
from that one moment in
my life
i'm gonna be stronger
know that i've tried my
very best
i'd put my spirit to the test
if i could reach
if i could reach, higher
just for one moment touch
the sky
from that one moment in
my life
i'm gonna be stronger
i'm gonna be so much stronger
yes i am
i put my spirit to the test
if i could reach, higher
if i could, if i could
if i could reach
reach, i'd reach, i'd reach
i'd reach, i'd reach so
much higher
be stronger
And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
'Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know you're alive
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
(break and solo)
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
Could you whisper in my ear
The things you wanna feel
I'll give you anything
To feel it comin'
Do you wake up on your own
And wonder where you are
You live with all your faults
Chorus:
I wanna wake up where you are
I won't say anything at all
So why don't you slide
Yeah we're gonna let it slide
Don't you love the life you killed
The priest is on the phone
Your father hit the wall
Your ma disowned you
Don't suppose I'll ever know
What it means to be a man
Something I can't change
I'll live around it
Chorus
And I'll do anything you ever
Dreamed to be complete
Little pieces of the nothing that fall
Oh May, put your arms around me
What you feel is what you are
And what you are is beautiful
Oh May, do you wanna get married
Or run away
And I'll do anything you ever
Dreamed to be complete
Little pieces of the nothing that fall
May put your arms around me
What you feel is what you are
And what you are is beautiful
May do you wanna get married
Or run away
Chorus
by (doyle/mccann)
Na na na na na ni na na na
Na na na na na ni na na na
Wouldn't it be great if no one ever got offended,
And wouldn't it be great to say what's really on your mind?
I've always said all the rules are made for bending,
And if I let my hair down, would that be such a crime?
Chorus:
Oh, and I wanna be consequence free
I wanna be where nothing needs to matter
I wanna be consequence free
Just say na na na na na ni na na na
Na na na na na ni na na na
I could really use to lose my Catholic conscience
'Cause I'm getting sick of feeling guilty all the time
I won't abuse it, yeah, I've got the best intentions,
For a little bit of anarchy, but not the hurting kind
Chorus
I couldn't sleep at all last night
'Cause I had so much on my mind
I'd like to leave it all behind
But you know it's not that easy
Oh for just one night
Wouldn't it be great if the band just never ended
We could stay out late, and we would never hear last call
We wouldn't need to worry about approval or permission
We could slip off the edge, and never worry about the fall
Chorus
Na na na na na ni na na na

Hey, come this May we'll be running in the sun again. Your time
will come.
You're just an young broken heart. Been out sleeping in the
yard. How could you be so dumb?
Chorus:
All we losers stand in line just waiting for our time.
Broken angel take that plane and finger paint the sky till
everything shines
Everything shines
Everything shines
Everything shines
Old broken clock, haven't heard your old tick tocking man for
much too long.
And lonely jukebox in the corner of the nightclub, man, I need
your song. (I need your song)
All we losers stand in line just waiting for our time.
Broken angel take that plane and finger paint the sky till
everything shines
Everything shines
Everything shines
Everything shines
And all we losers stand in line just waiting for our time.
Broken angel take that plane and finger paint the sky till
everything shines
Everything shines
Everything shines
Everything shines

There's something in your eyes

Baby maybe someday
Don't you cry
Don't you ever cry
Don't you cry
Tonight
You got your big girl
Now you have your young one too
Wondering if some day I could have them
the way I once had you
I remember your crazy remarks
We’d get drunk and go out after dark
Searching for someone we could take home
Chorus:
You don’t wanna be alone
You don’t want to see the sun go down
You don’t wanna open the door and see her go
One step and tomorrow comes
Two steps and she’s off with someone
Three steps and it’s all you know
You’ll be gone, she’ll be gone
So what are you gonna do about me
I’ll be there when you have no one else
I’ll be there, be your friend
Hold on strong, don’t let go
There will never be no one to take your place
So don’t you want to reach out and take my hand
Repeat chorus
With a little love, and some tenderness
We'll walk upon the water
We'll rise above this mess
With a little peace, and some harmony
We'll take the world together
We'll take 'em by the hand
'Cause I've got a hand for you
'Cause I wanna run with you
Yesterday, I saw you standing there
Your head was down, your eyes were red
No comb had touched your hair
I said get up, and let me see you smile
We'll take a walk together
Walk the road awhile, 'cause
'Cause I've got a hand for you
I've got a hand for you
'Cause I wanna run with you
Won't you let me run with you? yeah
Hold my hand
Want you to hold my hand
Hold my hand
I'll take you to a place where you can be
Hold my hand
Anything you wanna be because
I wanna love you the best that, the best that I can
See I was wasted, and I was wasting time
'Till I thought about your problems, I thought about your crimes
Then I stood up, and then I screamed aloud
I don't wanna be part of your problems
Don't wanna be part of your crowd, no
'Cause I've got a hand for you
I've got a hand for you
'Cause I wanna run with you
Ah, won't you let me run with you?
Hold my hand
Want you to hold my hand
Hold my hand
I'll take you to the promised land
Hold my hand
Maybe we can't change the world but
I wanna love you the best that, the best that I can, yeah
Hold my hand
Want you to hold my hand
Hold my hand
I'll take you to a place where you can be
Hold my hand
Anything you wanna be because
I...Oh...No, No, No, No, No
Hold my hand
Want you to hold my hand
Hold my hand
I'll take you to the promised land
Hold my hand
Maybe we can't change the world but
I wanna love you the best that, best that I can
Oh, The best that I can
You and me
We come from different worlds
You like to laugh at me
When I look at other girls
Sometimes you’re crazy
And you wonder why
I’m such a baby
Cause adult things make me cry
Well there's nothing I can do
I been looking for a girl like you
You look at me
You got nothing left to say
I'm gonna pout at you until I get my way
I wont dance, you wont sing
I just wanna love you
But you wanna wear my ring
Chorus:
Well there’s nothing I can do
I only wanna be with you
You can call me your fool
Only wanna be with you
Put on a little Dylan
Sitting on a fence
I say that line is great
You ask me what it meant by
“Said I shot a man named Gray
Took his wife to Italy
She inherited a million bucks
And when she died it came to me
I can’t help it if I’m lucky”
Only wanna be with you
Ain’t Bobby so cool
I only wanna be with you
(Solo)
Yeah I’m tangled up and blue
I only wanna be with you
You can call me your fool
Only wanna be with you
Sometimes I wonder
If it will ever end
You get so mad at me
When I go out with my friends
Sometimes you’re crazy
And you wonder why
I’m such a baby yeah
That adult things make me cry
Well there’s nothing I can do
I only wanna be with you
You can call me your fool
Only wanna be with you
Yeah I’m tangled up and blue
Only wanna be with you
Sometimes I shave my legs and sometimes I don't
Sometimes I comb my hair and sometimes I won't
Depend on how the wind blows I might even paint my toes
It really just depends on whatever feels good in my soul
I'm not the average girl from your video
and I ain't built like a supermodel
But, I Learned to love myself unconditionally
Because I am a queen
I'm not the average girl from your video
My worth is not determined by the price of my clothes
No matter what I'm wearing I will always be India Arie
When I look in the mirror the only one there is me
Every freckle on my face is where it's supposed to be
And I know our creator didn't make no mistakes on me
My feet, my thighs, my lips, my eyes I'm lovin' what I see
I'm not the average girl from your video
and I ain't built like a supermodel
But, I Learned to love myself unconditionally
Because I am a queen
I'm not the average girl from your video
My worth is not determined by the price of my clothes
No matter what I'm wearing I will always be India Arie
Am I less of a lady If I don't wear pantyhose?
My mama said a lady ain't what she wears but, what she knows
But, I've drawn a conclusion, it's all an illusion confusion's
the name of the game
A misconception, a vast deception
Something's gotta change
Don't be offended this is all my opinion
ain't nothing that I'm sayin law
This is a true confession of a life learned lesson I was sent
here to share with y'all
So get in where you fit in go on and shine
Free your mind, now's the time
Put your salt on the shelf
Go on and love yourself
'Cause everything's gonna be all right
I'm not the average girl from your video
and I ain't built like a supermodel
But, I Learned to love myself unconditionally
Because I am a queen
I'm not the average girl from your video
My worth is not determined by the price of my clothes
No matter what I'm wearing I will always be India Arie
Keep your fancy drinks and your expensive minks
I don't need that to have a good time
Keep your expensive car and your Caviar
All I need is my guitar
Keep your krystyle and your pistol
I'd rather have a pretty piece of Crystal
Don't need your sillicone, I prefer my own
What God gave me is just fine
I'm not the average girl from your video
and I ain't built like a supermodel
But, I Learned to love myself unconditionally
Because I am a queen
I'm not the average girl from your video
My worth is not determined by the price of my clothes
No matter what I'm wearing I will always be India Arie
Baby don't cry
Baby don't cry
Baby don't cry
Baby don't cry
Baby don't cry
Baby don't cry
When you're down and confused
Nothing seems right
And it's you who decides
Who's going to make it right
Baby don't cry

Face to face
Anything is possible
Not political, or analytical
Never givin up on the wrong
You got a choice
Why don't you use it
Change, is an attitude
Guaranteed to take hold of you
So welcome, to the turnstile
Take a turn with a new vow
Hey, I know what you know
All the sympathy
Made a mess of me
Respect the sacrifice
Before the number one
Now it has begun
Baby don't cry
Baby don't cry
Baby don't cry
Baby don't cry
Maybe one day I'll be an honest man
Up till now I'm doing the best I can
Long roads, long days, of sunrise, to sunset
Sunrise to sunset
Dream on brother, while you can
Dream on sister, I hope you find the one
All of our lives, covered up quickly
by the tides of time
Spend your days full of emptiness
Spend your years full of loneliness
Wasting love, in a desperate caress
Rolling shadows of nights
Dream on brother, while you can
Dream on sister, I hope you find the one
All of our lives, covered up quickly
By the tides of time
Sands are flowing and the lines
are in your hand
In your eyes I see the hunger, and the
desperate cry that tears the nightSpend your days full of
emptiness
Spend your years full of loneliness
Wasting love, in a desperate caress
Rolling shadows of nights
After Solo
Sands are flowing and the lines
are in your hand
In your eyes I see the hunger, and the
desperate cry that tears the nightSpend your days full of
emptiness
Spend your years full of loneliness
Wasting love, in a desperate caress
Rolling shadows of nights
I know she said it's alright
But you can make it up next time
I know she knows it's not right
There ain't no use in lying
Maybe she thinks I know something
Maybe maybe she thinks its fine
Maybe she knows something I don't
I'm so, I'm so tired, I'm so tired of trying
It seems to me that maybe
It pretty much always means no
So don't tell me you might just let it go
And often times we're lazy
It seems to stand in my way
Cause no one no not no one
Likes to be let down
I know she loves the sunrise
No longer sees it with her sleeping eyes
And I know that when she said she's gonna try
Well it might not work because of other ties and
I know she usually has some other ties
And I wouldn't want to break 'em, nah, I wouldn't want to break 'em
Maybe she'll help me to untie this but
Until then well, I'm gonna have to lie too
It seems to me that maybe
It pretty much always means no
So don't tell me you might just let it go
And often times we're lazy
It seems to stand in my way
Cause no one no not no one
Likes to be let down
It seems to me that maybe
It pretty much always means no
So don't tell me you might just let it go
The harder that you try baby, the further you'll fall
Even with all the money in the whole wide world
Please please please don't pass me
Please please please don't pass me
Please please please don't pass me by
Everything you know about me now baby you gonna have to change
You gonna have to call it by a brand new name
Please please please don't drag me
Please please please don't drag me
Please please please don't drag me down
Just like a tree down by the water baby I shall not move
Even after all the silly things you do
Please please please don't drag me
Please please please don't drag me
Please please please don't drag me down
Looking at himself but wishing he was someone else
Because the posters on the wall they don't look like him at all
So he ties it up, he tucks it in, he pulls it back, and gives a grin
Laughing at himself because he knows he ain't loved at all
He gets his courage from the can,
It makes him feel like a man
Because he's loving all the ladies
But the ladies don't love him at all
Cause when he's not drunk
He's only stuck on himself
And then he has the nerve
To say he needs a decent girl
Looking at herself but wishing she was someone else
Because the body of the doll it don't look like hers at all
So she straps it on, she sucks it in, she throws it up, and gives a grin
Laughing at herself because she knows she ain't that at all
All caught up in the trends
Well the truth began to bend
And the next thing you man
There just ain't no truth left at all
Cause when the pretty girl walks
She walks so proud
And when the pretty girl laughs
Oh man, she laughs so loud
And if it ain't this then its that
As a matter of fact
She hasn't had a day to relax
Since she has lost her ability to think clearly
Well I'm an energetic hypothetic version of another person
Check out my outsides there ain't nothing in here
Well I'm a superficial, systematic, music television addict
Check out my outsides there ain't nothing in
Here comes another one, just like the other one
Looking at himself but wishing he was someone else
Because the posters on the wall they don't look like a him
And so he ties it up he tucks it in, he pulls it back and gives a grin
Laughing at himself because he knows he ain't loved at all
He knows he ain't loved at all
A billion people died on the news tonight
But not so many cried at the terrible sight
Well mama said
It's just make believe
You can't believe everything you see
So baby close your eyes to the lullabies
On the news tonight
Who's the one to decide that it would be alright
To put the music behind the news tonight
Well mama said
You can't believe everything you hear
The diagetic world is so unclear
So baby close your ears
On the news tonight
On the news tonight
The unobtrusive tones on the news tonight
And mama said
Mmm
Why don't the newscasters cry when they read about people who die
At least they could be decent enough to put just a tear in their eyes
Mama said
It's just make believe
You cant believe everything you see
So baby close your eyes to the lullabies
On the news tonight

Perhaps love is like a resting place, a shelter from the storm
It exists to give you comfort, it is there to keep you warm
And in those times of trouble when you are most alone
The memory of love will bring you home
Perhaps love is like a window, perhaps an open door
It invites you to come closer, it wants to show you more
And even if you lose yourself and don't know what to do
The memory of love will see you through
Love to some is like a cloud, to some as strong as steel
For some a way of living, for some a way to feel
And some say love is holding on and some say letting go
And some say love is everything, and some say they don't know
Perhaps love is like the ocean, full of conflict, full of pain
Like a fire when it's cold outside, thunder when it rains
If I should live forever, and all my dreams come true
My memories of love will be of you
Some say love is holding on and some say letting go
Some say ove is everything and some say they don't know
Perhaps love is like the ocean, full of conflict, full of pain
Like a fire when it's cold outside, thunder when it rains
If I should live forever, and all my dreams come true
My memories of love will be of you
You show us everything you've got
You keep on dancin' and the room gets hot
You drive us wild, we'll drive you crazy
You say you wanna go for a spin
The party's just begun, we'll let you in
You drive us wild, we'll drive you crazy
You keep on shoutin', you keep on shoutin'
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
You keep on saying you'll be mine for a while
You're lookin' fancy and I like your style
You drive us wild, we'll drive you crazy
You show us everything you've got
Baby, baby that's quite a lot
And you drive us wild, we'll drive you crazy
You keep on shoutin', you keep on shoutin'
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
You're just too good to be true
can't take my eyes off of you
you'd be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much
at long last love has arrived
and I thank God I'm alive
you're just too good to be true
can't take my eyes off of you
Pardon the way that I stare
there's nothing else to compare
the sight of you leaves me weak
there are no words left to speak
but if you feel like I feel
please let me know that it's real
you're just too good to be true
can't take my eyes off of you
chorus:
I need you baby, if it's quite alright
I need you baby to warm the lonely nights
I love you baby, trust in me when I say okay
oh pretty baby, don't let me down, I pray
oh pretty baby, now that I've found you, stay
and let me love you, oh baby, let me love you, oh baby...
You're just too good to be true
can't take my eyes off of you
you'd be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much
at long last love has arrived
and I thank god I'm alive
you're just too good to be true
can't take my eyes off of you
chorus
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You don't have to go oh oh oh oh oh
You don't have to go oh oh oh oh oh
Baby please don't go.
Ay ay ay ay ay ay
All those tears I cry ay ay ay ay ay
All those tears I cry ay ay ay ay ay
Baby please don't go.
[CHORUS]
When I read the letter you wrote, it made me mad mad mad
When I read the news that it brought me, t made me sad sad sad.
But I still love you so, I can't let you go
I love you- ooh baby I love you.
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Every breath I take oh oh oh oh oh
Every move I make oh oh oh oh oh
Baby please don't go.

Darling please don't go.
[CHORUS]
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You don't have to go oh oh oh oh oh
You don't have to go oh oh oh oh oh
(Baby please don't go)
Well I guess it would be nice
If I could touch your body
I know not everybody
Has gotta body like me
But I gotta think twice
Before I give my heart away
And I know all the games you play
Because I play them too
Oh, but I need some time off
From that emotion
Time to pick my heart up off the floor
When that love comes down
Without devotion
Well it takes a strong man baby
But I'm showin' you that door
Cuz I gotta have faith
Gotta have faith - [3x]
Baby, I know you're askin' me to stay
Say please, please, please don't go away
Cuz you're givin' me the blues
Baby, you mean every word you say
Can't help but think of yesterday
And another who tied me down to lover boy blues
Before this river becomes an ocean
Before you pick my heart up off the floor
When our love comes down
Without devotion
Well it takes a strong man baby
But I'm showing you that door
I gotta have faith
Gotta have faith - [3x]
get the fuck up!
I gotta have faith
faith - [2x]
You say I only hear what I want to.
You say I talk so all the time so.
And I thought what I felt was simple,
and I thought that I don't belong,
and now that I am leaving,
now I know that I did something wrong 'cause I missed you.
Yeah yeah, I missed you.
And you say I only hear what I want to:
I don't listen hard,
don't pay attention to the distance that you're running
to anyone, anywhere,
I don't understand if you really care,
I'm only hearing negative: no, no, no.
So I turned the radio on, I turned the radio up,
and this woman was singing my song:
lover's in love, and the other's run away,
lover is crying 'cause the other won't stay.
Some of us hover when we weep for the other who was
dying since the day they were born.
Well, well, this is not that;
I think that I'm throwing, but I'm thrown.
And I thought I'd live forever, but now I'm not so sure. You try
to tell me that I'm clever,
but that won't take me anyhow, or anywhere with you.
You said that I was naive,
and I thought that I was strong.
I thought, "hey, I can leave, I can leave."
Oh, but now I know that I was wrong, 'cause I missed you.
Yeah, I missed you.
You said you caught me cuz u want me and one day you'll let me
go.
"You try to give away a keeper, or keep me 'cause you know
you're just scared to lose.
And you say, "Stay."
And you say I only hear what I want to.
it's easier not to be wise
and measure these things by your brains
I sank into Eden with you
alone in the church by and by
I'll read to you here, save your eyes
you'll need them, your boat is at sea
your anchor is up, you've been swept away
and the greatest of teachers won't hesitate
to leave you there, by yourself, chained to fate
I alone love you
I alone tempt you
I alone love you
fear is not the end of this!
it's easier not to be great
and measure these things by your eyes
we long to be here by his resolve
alone in the church by and by
to cradle the baby in space
and leave you there by yourself chained to fate
oh, now, we took it back too far,
only love can save us now,
all these riddles that you burn
all come runnin' back to you,
all these rhythms that you hide
only love can save us now,
all these riddles that you burn yeah, yeah, yeah
I know that I should think about giving
And think about
Helping out
And think about
Think about living
But I can't seem to rescue myself
What about my bank account
And my holy desert shield
That keep me dry under the arms?
Flags and mental jewelry's all I know
And they keep my happy and warm inside
So I said unto this man
"Who are you and where do you come from?"
And he proceeded to tell me many things
But I said nothing at all
For the flowers in the corner, by the room,
In the window, and the sun
Said it all
At least they said they would
Said they could
Mama said they would
Do me good
The way you're bathed in light
reminds me of that night
god laid me down into your rose garden of trust
and I was swept away
with nothin' left to say
some helpless fool
yeah I was lost in a swoon of peace
you're all I need to find
so when the time is right
come to me sweetly, come to me
come to me
love will lead us, alright
love will lead us, she will lead us
can you hear the dolphin's cry?
see the road rise up to meet us
it's in the air we breathe tonight
love will lead us, she will lead us
oh yeah, we meet again
it's like we never left
time in between was just a dream
did we leave this place?
this crazy fog surrounds me
you wrap your legs around me
all I can do to try and breathe
let me breathe so that I
so we can go together!
love will lead us, alright
love will lead us, she will lead us
can you hear the dolphin's cry?
see the road rise up to meet us
it's in the air we breathe tonight
love will lead us, she will lead us
life is like a shooting star
it don't matter who you are
if you only run for cover, it's just a waste of time
we are lost 'til we are found
this phoenix rises up from the ground
and all these wars are over
over
over
singin' la da da, da da da
over
come to me
singin' la da da da, da da da
come to me
I talk of freedom
you talk of the flag
I talk of revolution
you'd much rather brag
and as the decibels of this disenchanting discourse
continue to dampen the day
the coin flips again and again, and again, and again
as our sanity walks away
all this discussion though politically correct
is dead beyond destruction
though it leaves me quite erect
and as the final sunset rolls behind the earth
and the clock is finally dead
I'll look at you, you'll look at me
and we'll cry a lot
but this will be what we said
this will be what we said
Look where all this talking got us, baby.
Mama was queen of the mambo
papa was king of the Congo
deep down in a jungle
I started banging my first bongo
Every monkey like to be
in my place instead of me
cause I´m the king of Bongo
baby I´m the king of Bongo Bong
I went to the big town
where there is a lot of sound
from the jungle to the city
looking for a bigger crowd
So I play my Bongo
for the people of this city
but they don´t go crazy
when I´m banging all my boogie
I´m the
Chorus:
King of the Bongo
King of the Bongo bong
Hear me when I come, baby
King of the Bongo
King of the Bongo
Nobody likes to be
in my place instead of me
cause nobody go crazy
when I´m banging on my boogie
I´m a king without a crown
Hanging loose in a big town
but I´m the king of Bongo
baby I´m the king of Bongo Bong
Refrain
They said that I´m a clown
making too much dirty sound
they said there is no place
for little monkey in this town
Nobody liked to be
in my place instead of me
cause nobody go crazy
when I´m banging all my boogie
I´m the
Refrain
Banging on my bongo
all that swing belongs to me
I´m so happy there´s nobody
in my place instead of me
I´m a king without a crown
Hanging loose in a big town
but I´m the king of Bongo
baby I´m the king of Bongo Bong
Chorus
Mama was queen of the mambo
papa was king of the Congo
deep down in a jungle
I started banging my first bongo
Everybody like to be
in my place instead of me
cause I´m the king of Bongo
baby I´m the king of Bongo Bong
Je ne t´aime plus mon amour
Je ne t´aime plus tout le jour
Je ne t´aime plus mon amour
Je ne t´aime plus tout le jour
Games, changes and fears
When will they go from here
When will they stop
I believe that fate has brought us here
And we should be together babe
But we´re not
I play it off but I´m dreaming of you
And I´ll keep my cool, but feenin´
I try to say goodbye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it´s clear
My world crumbles when you are not there
Goodbye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it´s clear
My world crumbles when you are not there
I may appear to be free
But I´m just a prisoner of your love
And I may seem all right and smile when you leave
But my smiles are just a front
Just a front, hey
I play it off, but I´m dreaming of you
And I´ll keep my cool but I´m feenin´
I try to say goodbye and I choke
(Yeah)
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it´s clear
My world crumbles when you are not there
Goodbye and I choke
(Yeah)
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it´s clear
My world crumbles when you are not there
Here is my confession
May I be your possession
Boy I need your touch
Your love, kisses and such
With all my might I try
But this I can´t deny
Deny
I play it off but I´m dreaming of you
(But I´m dreaming of you babe)
And I´ll keep my cool but I´m feenin´
I try to say goodbye and I choke
(Yeah)
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try
(Try to hide it)
To hide it, it´s clear
My world crumbles when you are not there
(When you are not there ahh)
Goodbye and I choke
(Yeah yeah yeah)
I try to walk away and I stumble
(Hey hey hey)
Though I try to hide it, it´s clear
(Say it Lord)
My world crumbles (Lord)
When you are not there
(The Lord kisses us)
Goodbye and I choke
(I´m choking)
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it´s clear
My world crumbles when you are not near
(When you are not near yeah yeah yeah)
Yeah yeah
Treated me kind
Sweet destiny
Carried me through desperation
To the one that was waiting for me
It took so long
Still I believed
Somehow the one that I needed
Would find me eventually
I had a vision of love
And it was all that you've given to me
Prayed through the nights
Felt so alone
Suffered from alienation
Carried the weight on my own
Had to be strong
So I believed
And now I know I've succeeded
In finding the place I conceived
I had a vision of love
And it was all that you've given to me
I had a vision of love
And it was all that you've given me
I've realized a dream
And I visualized
The love that came to be
Feel so alive
I'm so thankful that I've received
The answer that heaven has sent down to me
You treated me kind
Sweet destiny
And I'll be eternally grateful
Holding you so close to me
Prayed through the nights
So faithfully
Knowing the one that I needed
Would find me eventually
I had a vision of love
And it was all that you've given to me
I had a vision of love
And it was all that you turned out to be
Love, love is a verb
Love is a doing word
Fearless on my breath
Gentle impulsion
Shakes me makes me lighter
Fearless on my breath
Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my breath
Night, night of matter
Black flowers blossom
Fearless on my breath
Black flowers blossom
Fearless on my breath
Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my breath
Water is my eye
Most faithful mirror
Fearless on my breath
Teardrop on the fire of a confession
Fearless on my breath
Most faithful mirror
Fearless on my breath
Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my breath
You're stumbling a little (x2)
She says it's cold outside and she hands me my raincoat
She's always worried about things like that
She says it's all gonna end and it might as well be my fault
And she only sleeps when it's raining
And she screams and her voice is straining
(chorus)
She says baby
It's 3 am I must be lonely
When she says baby
Well I can't help but be scared of it all sometimes
And the rain's gonna wash away I believe it
She's got a little bit of something, God it's better than
nothing
And in her color portrait world she believes that she's got it
all
She swears the moon don't hang quite as high as it used to
And she only sleeps when it's raining
And she screams and her voice is straining
(chorus)
She believes that life is made up of all that you're used to
And the clock on the wall has been stuck at three for days, and
days
She thinks that happiness is a mat that sits on her doorway
But outside it's stopped to rain
(chorus)
Finished with my woman 'cause she couldn't help me
with my mind
people think I'm insane because I am frowning all the time
All day long I think of things but nothing seems to satisfy
Think I'll lose my mind if I don't find something to pacify
Can you help me occupy my brain?
Oh yeah
I need someone to show me the things in life that I can't find
I can't see the things that make true happiness,
I must be blind
Make a joke and I will sigh and you will laugh and I will cry
Happiness I cannot feel and love to me us so unreal
And so as you hear these words telling you now of my state
I tell you to enjoy life I wish I could but it's too late
Please baby can't you see
My mind's a burnin' hell
I got razors a rippin' and tearin' and strippin'
My heart apart as well
Tonight you told me
That you ache for something new
And some other woman is lookin' like something
That might be good for you
[CHORUS]
Go on and hold her till the screaming is gone
Go on believe her when she tells you
nothing's wrong
But I'm the only one
Who'll walk across the fire for you
I'm the only one
Who'll drown in my desire for you
It's only fear that makes you run
The demons that you're hiding from
When all your promises are gone
I'm the only one
Please baby can't you see
I'm trying to explain
I've been here before and I'm locking the door
And I'm not going back again
Her eyes and arms and skin won't make
it go away
You'll wake up tomorrow and wrestle the sorrow
That holds you down today
[CHORUS]
I hate the world today
You're so good to me
I know but I can't change
tried to tell you but you look at me like maybe I'm an angel
underneath
innocent and sweet
Yesterday I cried
You must have been relieved to see the softer side
I can understand how you'd be so confused
I don't envy you
I'm a little bit of everything
all rolled into one
Chorus:
I'm a bitch, I'm a lover
I'm a child, I'm a mother
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint
I do not feel ashamed
I'm your hell, I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
You know you wouldn't want it any other way
So take me as I am
This may mean you'll have to be a stronger man
Rest assured that when I start to make you nervous
and I'm going to extremes
tomorrow I will change
and today won't mean a thing
Chorus
Just when you think you've got me figured out
the season's already changing
I think it's cool you do what you do
and don't try to save me
Chorus
I'm a bitch, I'm a tease
I'm a goddess on my knees
when you hurt, when you suffer
I'm your angel undercover
I've been numbed, I'm revived
can't say I'm not alive
You know I wouldn't want it any other way
Bodies fill the fields I see, hungry heroes end
No one to play soldier now, no one to pretend
running blind through killing fields, bred to kill them all
Victim of what said should be
a servant `til I fall
Soldier boy, made of clay
now an empty shell
twenty one, only son
but he served us well
Bred to kill, not to care
do just as we say
finished here, Greeting Death
he's yours to take away
Back to the front
you will do what I say, when I say
Back to the front
you will die when I say, you must die
Back to the front
you coward
you servant
you blindman
Barking of machinegun fire, does nothing to me now
sounding of the clock that ticks, get used to it somehow
More a man, more stripes you bare, glory seeker trends
bodies fill the fields I see
the slaughter never ends
Soldier boy, made of clay
now an empty shell
twenty one, only son
but he served us well
Bred to kill, not to care
do just as we say
finished here, Greeting Death
he's yours to take away
Back to the front
you will do what I say, when I say
Back to the front
you will die when I say, you must die
Back to the front
you coward
you servant
you blindman
Why, Am I dying?
Kill, have no fear
Lie, live off lying
Hell, Hell is here
I was born for dying
Life planned out before my birth, nothing could I say
had no chance to see myself, moulded day by day
Looking back I realize, nothing have I done
left to die with only friend
Alone I clench my gun
Soldier boy, made of clay
now an empty shell
twenty one, only son
but he served us well
Bred to kill, not to care
do just as we say
finished here, Greeting Death
he's yours to take away
Back to the front
you will do what I say, when I say
Back to the front
you will die when I say, you must die
Back to the front
you coward
you servant
you blindman
Back to the front.
Lay beside me
Tell me what they've done
Speak the words I wanna hear
To make my demons run
The door is locked now
But it's open if you're true
If you can understand the me
Then I can understand the you
Lay beside me
Under wicked sky
Through black of day
Dark of night
We share this pair of lives
The door cracks open
But there's no sun shining through
Black heart scarring darker still
But there's no sun shining through
No, there's no sun shining through
No, there's no sun shining
What I've felt
What I've known
Turn the pages
Turn the stone
Behind the door
Should I open it for you?
Yeah
What I've felt
What I've known
Sick and tired
I stand alone
Could you be there
'Cause I'm the one who waits for you
Or are you unforgiven too?
Come lay beside me
This won't hurt, I swear
She loves me not
She loves me still
But she'll never love again
She lay beside me
But she'll be there when I'm gone
Black heart scarring darker still
Yes, she'll be there when I'm gone
Yes, she'll be there when I'm gone
Dead sure she'll be there
Lay beside me
Tell me what I've done
The door is closed, so are your eyes
But now I see the sun
Now I see the sun
Yes, now I see it
What I've felt
What I've known
Turn the pages
Turn the stone
Behind the door
Should I open it for you?
Yeah
What I've felt
What I've known
So sick and tired
I stand alone
Could you be there
'Cause I'm the one who waits
The one who waits for you
Oh
What I've felt
What I've known
Turn the pages
Turn the stone
Behind the door
Should I open it for you?
So I dub thee unforgiven
Oh, what I've felt
Oh, what I've known
I take this key
And I bury it in you
Because you're unforgiven too
Never free
Never me
'Cause you're unforgiven too
Out where the river broke
The bloodwood and the desert oak
Holden wrecks and boiling diesels
Steam in forty five degrees
The time has come
To say fair's fair
To pay the rent
To pay our share
The time has come
A fact's a fact
It belongs to them
Let's give it back
How can we dance when our earth is turning
How do we sleep while our beds are burning
How can we dance when our earth is turning
How do we sleep while our beds are burning
The time has come to say fairs fair
to pay the rent, now to pay our share
Four wheels scare the cockatoos
From Kintore East to Yuendemu
The western desert lives and breathes
In forty five degrees
The time has come
To say fair's fair
To pay the rent
To pay our share
The time has come
A fact's a fact
It belongs to them
Let's give it back
How can we dance when our earth is turning
How do we sleep while our beds are burning
How can we dance when our earth is turning
How do we sleep while our beds are burning
The time has come to say fair's fair
To pay the rent, now to pay our share
The time has come, a fact's a fact
It belongs to them, let's give it back
How can we dance when our earth is turning
How do we sleep while our beds are burning
Three months in here
Can't catch the tears
Time never lands
Our love is all that stands now
Streets feel strange
And longer lives can never change
I'm so glad to have you
And it's getting worse
I'm so mad to love you
And you evil curse
I feel out of place
Just look at my face
Stuck in the mud
Knee-deep in blood girl
Eyes, blind fold
You never said I'm growing old
I'm so glad to have you
And it's getting worse
I'm so mad to love you
And your evil curse
I'm so glad to have you
And it's getting worse
I'm so mad to love you
And your evil curse
Sample: My my my heart is still reliant/very light
Tell them I've gone
And nothing's wrong
In from the past
A sudden blast bang
Spring has gone
And summer keeps on coming on
I'm so glad to have you
And it's getting worse
I'm so mad to love you
And your evil curse
I'm so glad to have you
And I'm getting worse
I'm so mad to love you
And your evil curse
I'm so glad to have you
And I'm getting worse
I'm so mad to love you
And your evil curse
I've a plan to save you from my misery
I'm a man to brave to follow history
We always have a choice
Or at least I think we do
We can always use our voice
I thought this to be true
We can live in fear
Extend our selves to love
We can fall below
Or lift our selves above
Fear can stop you loving
Love can stop your fear
Fear can stop you loving
But it's not always that clear
I always try so hard
To share my self around
But now I'm closing up again
Drilling through the ground
Fear can stop you loving
Love can stop your fear
Fear can stop you loving
But it's not always that clear
I'd love to give my self away
But I find it hard to trust
I've got no map to find my way
Amongst these clouds of dust
Fear can stop you loving
Love can stop your fear
Fear can stop you loving
Love can stop your fear
Fear can stop you loving
Love can stop your fear
Fear can stop you loving
But it's not always that clear (X4)
Who can you trust when you need to?
Why do we rust when we heed you?
Crashing back down to earth I've found
We can love
Oh, let me see
All of the places that I can be
Oh, let me know
All of the places where we can go
Do you ever think in bubbles?
Do you ever shake up troubles?
Falling apart right from the start
Crawling 'round
Oh, let me see
All of the places that I can be
Oh, let me know
All of the places where we can go
Show us how to stand up, strong
Waiting, for you takes so long
Shadows leave us standing naked
We can't fake it
Oh, let me see
All of the places that I can be
Oh, let me know
All of the places where we can go
Oh, let me see
All of the places that I can be
Oh, let me know
All of the places where we can go
Hold on little girl
show me what he's done to you
Stand up little girl
A broken heart can't be that bad
when it's through, it's through
Fate will twist the both of you
So come on baby come on over
Let me be the one to show you
CHORUS:
I'm the one who wants to be with you
Deep inside I hope you feel it too
Waited on a line of greens and blues
Just to be the next to be with you
Build up your confidence
So you can be on top for once
Wake up who cares about
Little boys that talk too much
I seen it all go down
Your game of love was all rained out
So come on baby, come on over
Let me be the one to hold you
CHORUS
Why be alone when we can be together baby
You can make my life worthwile
and I can make you start to smile
when its though its though
fate will twist the both of you
So come on baby, come on over let me
be the one to show you
Chorus x 3
Just to be the next to be with u
In the summertime when the weather's high,
you can stretch right up and touch the sky,
when the weather's fine,
you got women, you got women on your mind.
Have a drink, have a drive,
go out and see what you can find.
If her daddy's rich, take her out for a meal.
If her daddy's poor, just do as you feel.
Speed along the land,
do a ton, or a ton and twentyfive.
When the sun goes down, you can make it,
make it good in a lay-by.
We're not grey people, we're not dirty, we're not mean.
We love everybody, but we do as we please.
When the weather's fine
we go fishing or go swimming in the sea.
We're always happy,
live's for living, yeah, that's our philosophy.
Sing along with us, dee-dee-dee-dee-dee.
Da-da-da-da-da...
Yeah, we're happy happy, da-da-da-da-dah.
When the winter's here, then it's party time.
Bring a bottle,
wear your bright clothes. It'll soon be summertime.
And we'll sing again,
we'll go drivin' or maybe we'll settle down.
If she's rich, if she's nice,
bring you're friends and we'll all go into town.
Three important rules for breaking up
Don't put off breaking up when you know you want to
Prolonging the situation only makes it worse
Tell him honestly, simply, kindly, but firmly
Don't make a big production
Don't make up an elaborate story
This will help you avoid a big tear jerking scene
If you wanna date other people say so
Be prepared for the boy to feel hurt and rejected
Even if you've gone together for only a short time,
And haven't been too serious,
There's still a feeling of rejection
When someone says she preferres the company of others
To your exclusive company,
But if you're honest and direct,
And avoid making a flowery emotional speech when you brake the
news,
The boy will respect you for your frankness,
And honestly he'll appreciate the kind of straight foward
manner
In which you told him your decision
Unless he's a real jerk or a cry baby you will remain friends
I'm head of the class
I'm popular
I'm a quarter back
I'm popular
My mom says I'm a catch
I'm popular
I'm never last picked
I got a cheerleader chick
Being attractive is the most important thing there is
If you wanna catch the biggest fish in your pond
You have to be as attractive as possible
Make sure to keep your hair spotless and clean
Wash it at least every two weeks
Once every two weeks
And if you see Jonny football hero in the hall
Tell him he played a great game
Tell him you liked his article in the newspaper
I'm the party star
I'm popular
I've got my own car
I'm popular
I'll never get caught
I'm popular
I make football bets
I'm a teachers pet.
I propose we support a one month limit on going steady
I think It will keep people more able to deal with weird
situations
And get to know more people
I think if you're ready to go out with Jonny
Now's the time to tell him about your one month limit
He won't mind he'll apreciate your fresh look on dating
And once you've dated someone else you can date him again
I'm sure he'll like it
Everyone will appreciate it
Your so novel, what a good idea
You can keep you time to your self
You don't need date insurance
You can go out with whoever you want to
Every boy, every boy, in the whole world could be yours
If you'll just listen to my plan
THE TEENAGE GUIDE TO POPULARITY!
I'm head of the class I'm popular
I'm a quarter back I'm popular
My mom says I'm a catch I'm popular
I'm never last picked
I got a cheerleader chick
I'm the party star
I'm popular
I've got my own car
I'm popular
I'll never get caught
I'm popular
I'm a teachers pet.
I make football bets
Everybody's been in my face
Tellin' me I gotta make a change
All I ever hear day and night is "You better hurry up and get a
life"
I need some direction-'cause the clock is tickin' away
Then a friend of a friend of mine
Says I've really been on his mind
And wants to go out and check out what the feelin's about
Says we have a deep connection-well it sure is news to me
And all I can say is
Intuition tells me how to live my day
Intuition tells me when to walk away
Could have turned left
Could have turned right
But I ended up here
Bang in the middle of real life
Then another one always says-she'd do anything to get ahead
She doesn't care if she has to scratch and claw to get in the
door
She wants her 15 minutes of fame and 20 would be nice
But I guess it's her life
'Cause intuition tells me that I'm doin' fine
Intuition tells me when to draw the line
Could have turned left
Could have turned right
But I ended up here
Bang in the middle of real life
should have turned left
But I turned right
And I ended up here
And I fell alright
You make it hard for me
Can't find the real you
You really think that I can't see
What it is that you're trying to do
(Chorus)
Every time I think of you
I feel shot right through with a bolt of blue
It's no problem of mine but it's a problem I find
Living a life that I can't leave behind
There's no sense in telling me
The wisdom of a fool won't set you free
But that's the way that it goes
And it's what nobody knows
While every day my confusion grows
Every time I see you falling
I get down on my knees and pray
I'm waiting for that final moment
You'll say the words that I can't say
I feel fine and I feel good
I'm feeling like I never should
Whenever I get this way, I just don't know what to say
Why can't we be ourselves like we were yesterday
I'm not sure what this could mean
I don't think you're what you seem
I do admit to myself
That if I hurt someone else
Then I'll never see just what we're meant to be
Every time I see you falling
I get down on my knees and pray
I'm waiting for that final moment
You'll say the words that I can't say
90 miles outside chicago
Can't stop driving
I don't know why
So many questions
I need an answer
Two years later you're still on my mind
Whatever happened to Emilia Earhart
Who holds the stars up in the sky
Is true love just once in a lifetime
Did the captain of the titanic cry?
(chorus)
Someday we'll know
If love can move a mountain
Someday we'll know
Why the sky is blue
Someday we'll know
Why I was meant for you
Does anybody know the way to Atlantis
Or what the wind says when she cries
I'm speeding by the place that I met you
For the 97th time..... tonight
(chorus)
Someday we'll know
Why Samson loved Delilah
One day I'll go
Dancing on the moon
Someday you'll know
That I was the one for you
(yeah yeah yeah yeah)
I bought a ticket to the end of the rainbow
I watched the stars crash in the sea
If I could ask god just one question
Why aren't you here with me....tonight
(chorus)
instrumental fade
Here I am again,
Overwhelming feelings
A thousand miles away
From your ocean home
Part of me is near
Thoughts of what we were invade
The miles that stand between
We can't separate
Your all I hoped you'd become
Sister I see you
Dancing on the stage
Of memory
Sister I miss you
Fleeting visits pass
Still they satisfy
Reminders of the next
Overshadow goodbye
Our flames burn as one
Sister I see you
Dancing on the stage
Of memory
Sister I miss you
All I am begins with you
Thoughts of hope understood
Half of me breathes in you
Thoughts of love remain true
Here we are again saying goodbye
Still we fall asleep underneath the same sky
You're all I knew you'd become
Sister I see you
Dancing on the stage
Of memory
Sister I miss you
Entwined, you and I
Our souls speak from across the miles
Intertwined, you and I
Our blood flows from the same inside
Half of me, breathes in you
Thoughts of love remain true
I see you, I feel you
When I close my eyes
I see walking there...
I see you dancing in my mind
<< Voltar <<
It's a bit early in the midnight hour for me
To go through all the things that I want to be
I don't believe in everything I see
Y'know I'm blind so why d'you disagree
Take me away cos I just don’t want to stay
And the lies you make me say
Are getting deeper every day
These are crazy days but they make me shine
Time keeps rolling by
All Around The World, you've gotta spread the word
Tell 'em what you’ve heard
You're gonna make a better day
All Around The World, you've gotta spread the word
Tell 'em what you’ve heard
You know it's gonna be okay
Whatcha gonna do when the walls come falling down?
You never move you never make a sound
Where you gonna swim with the ridges that you found?
You're lost at sea well I hope that you drown
Take me away cos I just don’t want to stay
And the lies you make me say
Are getting deeper every day
These are crazy days but they make me shine
Time keeps rolling by
All Around The World, you've gotta spread the word
Tell 'em what you’ve heard
You're gonna make a better day

....
Made a meal and threw it up on Sunday
I've got a lot of things to learn
Said I would and I believe in one day
Before my heart starts to burn.
So what's the matter with you?
Sing me something new ... Don't you know
The cold and wind and rain don't know
They only seem to come and go, away
Times are hard when things have got no meaning
I've found a key upon the floor
Maybe you and I will not believe in the things we find behind
the door
Stand By Me -- Nobody knows the way it's gonna be
Stand By Me -- Nobody knows the way it's gonna be
Stand By Me -- Nobody knows the way it's gonna be
If you're leaving will you take me with you
I'm tired of talking on my phone
But there is one thing I can never give you
My heart will never be your home
Today is gonna be the day
That they're gonna throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you gotta do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do about you now
Backbeat the word was on the street
That the fire in your heart is out
I'm sure you've heard it all before
But you never really had a doubt
I don't believe that anybody feels
The way I do about you now
And all the roads we have to walk are winding
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding
There are many things that I would
Like to say to you
But I don't know how
Because maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me ?
And after all
You're my wonderwall
Today was gonna be the day?
But they'll never throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you're not to do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do
About you now
And all the roads that lead you there were winding
And all the lights that light the way are blinding
There are many things that I would like to say to you
But I don't know how
I said maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me ?
And after all
You're my wonderwall
I said maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me ?
And after all
You're my wonderwall
Said maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me
You're gonna be the one that saves me
You're gonna be the one that saves me
I would say I´m sorry
If I thought that it would change your mind
But I know that this time
I´ve said too much
Been too unkind
I try to laugh about it
Cover it all up with lies
I try and
Laugh about it
Hiding the tears in my eyes
´cause boys don´t cry
Boys don´t cry
I would break down at your feet
And beg forgiveness
Plead with you
But I know that
It´s too late
And now there´s nothing I can do
So I try to laugh about it
Cover it all up with lies
I try to
laugh about it
Hiding the tears in my eyes
´cause boys don´t cry
I would tell you
That I loved you
If I thought that you would stay
But I know that it´s no use
That you´ve already
Gone away
Misjudged your limits
Pushed you too far
Took you for granted
I thought that you needed me more
Now I would do most anything
To get you back by my side
But I just
Keep on laughing
Hiding the tears in my eyes
´cause boys don´t cry
Boys don´t cry
Boys don´t cry
How many times have you been pushed around?
Is anybody there, does anybody care?
How many times have your friends let you down?
Is anybody there, did anybody stare?
How many times have your friends let you down
Just open up your heart, just open up your mind
How many times has your faith slipped away?
Well is anybody safe, does anybody pray?
Life is waiting for you
It’s all messed up but we’re alive
Life is waiting for you
It’s all messed up but we’ll survive
Doo, doo, doo..
How many days have you just slept away?
Is everybody high, is everyone afraid?
How many times have you wish you were strong?
Have they ever seen your heart
Have they ever seen your pain?
Life is waiting for you
It’s all messed up but we’re alive
Life Is waiting for you
It’s all messed up but we’ll survive
She gets high, she gets lost
She gets drown by the cost
Twice a day, every week
In all her life
She gets high, she gets lost
She gets drown by the cost
Twice a day, every week
And all her life
Life is waiting for you
Its all messed up but we’re alive
Life is waiting for you
It’s all messed up but we’ll survive
Life is waiting for you
It’s all messed up but were’e alive
Life is waiting for you
It’s all messed but we’re alive
It’s all messed up but we’ll survive
It’s all messed up but we’re alive
It’s all messed but I will, I will survive...
Watching time go and feeling belief grow
Rise above the obstacles
People beseech me
But they will never teach me
Things that I already know
I know
Dreams that I have shattered
May not have mattered
Take another point of view
Doubts will arise though
Like chasing a rainbow
I can tell a thing or two
That's true
You've got to believe in yourself
Or no one will believe in you
Imagination like a bird on the wing
Flying, free for you to use
OK baby
I can't believe they stop and stare
And point their fingers doubting me
Their disbelief suppresses them
But they're not blind
It's just that they won't see
I'm a believer, I ain't no deceiver
Mountains move before my eyes
Destiny planned out I don't need no handout
Speculation of the wise
Cut my life into pieces
This is my last resort
Suffocation, no breathing
Don't give a fuck
If I cut my arm bleeding
This is my last resort
Cut my life into pieces
I've reached my last resort
Suffocation, no breathing
Don't give a fuck
If I cut my arm bleeding
Do you even care
If I died bleeding?
Would it be wrong
Would it be right
If I took my life tonight
Chances are that I might
Mutilation out of sight
And I'm contemplating suicide
Cause I'm losing my sight,
Losing my mind,
Wish somebody would tell me I'm fine
Losing my sight ,
Losing my mind,
Wish somebody would tell I'm fine
I never realized
I was spread too thin
Till it was too late
And I was empty within
Hungry feeding on chaos and living in sin
Downward spiral, where do I begin
It all started when I lost my mother
No love for myself
And no love for another
Searching to find a love upon a higer level
Finding nothing but questions and devils
Cause I'm losing my sight
Losing my mind,
Wish somebody would tell me I'm fine
Losing my sight,
Losing my mind,
Wish somebody would tell I'm fine
Nothing's alright
Nothing is fine
I'm running and I'm crying
I'm crying(x4)
I can't go on living this way
Cut my life into pieces
This is my last resort
Suffocation, no breathing
Don't give a fuck
If I cut my arm bleeding
Would it be wrong
Would it be right?
If I took my life tonight
Chances are that I might.
Mutalation out of sight.
And I'm contemplating suicide.
Cause I'm losing my sight
Losing my mind,
Wish somebody would tell me I'm fine
Losing my sight
Losing my mind
Wish somebody would tell me I'm fine
Nothing's alright
Nothing is fine
I'm running and I'm crying
I can't go on living this way
Can't go on
Living this way
Nothing's al...right
She knows your side, the side she knows it well
She's needing some time, it seems she's gone and fell
All over you, again it's not the same.
The way to look on through, she'll be playing you game.
Chorus
dododo...and she's wishing.
and she's crying now
now she's hoping well
It seems that she knows where she's coming from
Even still you go, you think it's far from done
She's having you now, you go running back
Same old story how she's down and out...
She's perfecting her craft.
The brighter thing get to realize your dreams,
brings all the whole world to judge on your scene.
I'm trying to ask you to open up your senses,
To all the fine things that tear down the fences.
Put up by, and kept by those who don’t always listen.
To what the father told you they won’t be missing.
Out and down on this child’s intervention.
This boy never meant nothing but just to give you.
All about the passion. (X4)
Extra now extra won’t you read all about it.
Seems you've grown up, turned your life around it
Don’t judge him on what the others might say,
You’ll be asking him for just one thing some other day.
He’s tryin’, he’s buyin’, he’s got himself a time
And it looks like, and it feels like, he’s doing fine.
So won’t you stay back off his line.
This boy never meant nothing but just to give you.
People, now people, won’t you please understand.
This child’s not thinking about what others chance.
The rain’s pouring down on him like harsh blowing sand.
blinding game of darkness it’s no wonder he ran
Back to the old school right now if they see him though.
They know that he’s brewing up a fresh batch of home stew
Now they’ll sit back and if they only knew.
This boy never meant nothing but just to give you.
Hey...oooh...
Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay.
Were laid spread out before me as her body once did
All five horizons revolved around her soul
As the earth to the sun
Now the air I tasted and breathed
Has taken a turn
Ooh, and all I taught her was everything
Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore
And now my bitter hands
shake beneath the clouds
Of what was everything?
Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black, Tattooed
everything...
I take a walk outside
I'm surrounded by some kids at play
I can feel their laughter,
So why do I sear?
Hard and twisted thoughts that spin round my head
I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning
How quick the sun can, drop away
And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass
Of what was everything?
All the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed
everything...
All the love gone bad
Turned my world to black
Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I'll be...yeah...
Uh huh...uh huh...ooh...
I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, I know you'll be
the sun,
In somebody else's sky, but why
Why, why can't it be, oh can't it be mine...
(Together) We will go our way
(Together) We will leave some day
(Together) Your hand in my hand
(Together) We will make our plan
(Together) We will fly so high
(Together) Tell all our friends goodbye
(Together) We will start like new
(Together) This is what we'll do:
(Go west) Life is peaceful there
(Go west) in the open air
(Go west) where the skies are blue
(Go west) this is what we're gonna do
(Together) We will love the beach
(Together) We will learn and teach
(Together) Change our pace of life
(Together) We will work and thrive
(I love you) I know you love me,
(I want you) how could I disagree?
(And that's why) I make no protest
(And you say) you will do the rest
(Go west) life is peaceful there
(Go west) in the open air
(Go west) baby, you and me
(Go west) this is our destiny
(Go west) sun and winter time
(Go west) we will do just fine
(Go west) where the skies are blue
(Go west) this is what we're gonna do
There, where the air is free
We'll be (we'll be) what we want to be
Now, if we make a stand
We'll find (we'll find) our promised land!
(I know that) there are many ways
(To live there) in the sun or shade
(Together) we will find the place
(To settle) where there's so much space
(Don't look back) And the place back east
(Wrestling) wrestling just to feast
(And we'll go) ready to be two
(So that's what) we are gonna do
(Oh, what we're gonna do is...)
(Go west) life is peaceful there
(Go west) there, in the open air
(Go west) Where the skies are blue
(Go west) This is what we're gonna do...
(Life is peaceful there) Go west
(In the open air) Go west
(Baby, you and me) Go west
(This is our destiny) Come on, come on, come on, come on
(Go west) Sun and winter time
(Go west) we will feel just fine
(Go west) where the skies are blue
(Go west) this is what we're gonna do
(Come on, come on, come on, come on, go west!)
Shadows grow so long before my eyes
And they're moving across the page
Suddenly the day turns into night
Far away from the city
Don't hesitate
'Cause your love won't wait
{Chorus}
Ooh baby I love your way
Wanna tell you I love your way
Wanna be with you night and day
Moon appears to shine and light the sky
With the help of some firefly
Wonder how they have the power to shine, shine, shine
I can see them under the pine
Don't hesitate
Cause your love won't wait
{chorus}
Well don't hesitate
Cause your love won't wait
I can see the sunset in your eyes
Brown and gray, blue besides
Clouds are stalking islands in the sun
I wish I could buy one
Out of season
Don't hesitate
Cause your love won't wait
{chorus}
outside there's a box car waiting
outside the family stew
out by the fire breathing
outside we wait 'til face turns blue
i know the nervous walking
i know the dirty beard hangs
out by the box car waiting
take me away to nowhere plains
there is a wait so long
you'll never wait so long
here comes your man (3X)
big shake on the box car moving
big shake to the land that's falling down
is a wind makes a palm stop blowing
a big big stone fall and break my crown
there is a wait so long
you'll never wait so long
here comes your man
there is a wait so long
you'll never wait so long
here comes your man (3X)
there is a wait so long
you'll never wait so long
here comes your man (12X)
Children are innocent
a teenager's fucked up in the head
adults are even more fucked up
and elderlies are like children
will there be another race
to come along and take over for us?
maybe martians could do
better than we've done
we'll make great pets! X8
[Guitar solo]
my friend says we're like the dinosaurs
only we are doing ourselves in
much faster than they
ever did
we'll make great pets! X8
[Guitar Solo]
we'll make great pets! X8

the middle of an elephant's long wet cold grey nose
but that's totally feather pluckn insane

Movin' to the country, gonna eat alot of peaches,
I'm movin to the country, gonna eat me alot of peaches,
Movin to the country, gonna eat alot of peaches,
Movin to the country, gonna eat alot of peaches.
Peaches come, from a can,
They were put there by a man,
In a factory downtown.
And if I had my little way, Id eat peaches everyday,
Some suckin' bulgers in the shade.
Movin to the country, gonna eat alot of peaches,
Movin to the country, gonna eat alot of peaches,
Movin to the country, gonna eat alot of peaches,
Movin to the country, gonna eat alot of peaches.
I took a little nap on a root so twist,
Squished your rotten peach in my fist,
And dreamed about you, woman
I shoved my finger down inside, made a little room for a hand to
hide,
Nature's candy in my hand or can, or pie.
Millions of peaches, peaches for me,
Millions of peaches, peaches for free,
(repeat till fade)
There'll be no strings to bind your hands
not if my love can't bind your heart
And there's no need to take a stand
for it was I who chose to start
I see no reason to take me home,
I'm old enough to face the dawn
CHORUS:
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Then slowly turn away from me
Maybe the sun's light will be dim
So it won't matter anyhow
If morning's echo says we've sinned,
Well, it was what I wanted now
And if we're the victims of the night,
I won't be blinded by the light
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Then slowly turn away
I won't beg you to stay with me
Through the tears of the day,
Of the years, baby baby baby
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby
They say we're young and we don't know
Won't find out till we grow
Well I don't know babe if that's true
Cause you got me baby, I got you
(Chorus)
Babe, I got you babe, I got you, Babe.
They say our love won't pay the rent
Before it's earned our money's always spent
I guess that's so, we don't have a lot
But at least I'm sure of all the things we got
(Chorus)
I got flowers in the spring
I got you, you wear my ring
And when I'm sad, you're a clown
And if I get scared you're always around
And then they say your hair's too long
But I don't care, with you I can't do wrong
Then put your little hand in mine
There ain`t no hill or mountain we can't climb
(Chorus)
I got you to hold my hand
I got you to understand
I got you to walk with me
I got you to talk with
I got you to kiss goodnight
I got you to hold me tight
I got you I won't let go
I got you who loves me so
I got you, babe
Love of my life, you hurt me
You've broken my heart and now you leave me
Love of my life, can't you see?
Bring it back, bring it back, don't take it away from me
because you don't know what it means to me...
Love of my life don't leave me
You've stolen my love and now deserve me
Love of my life, can't you see?
Bring it back, bring it back, don't take it away from me
because you don't know what it means to me...
You'll remember when this is blown over,
and everything's all by the way
When I grow older, I will be there at side to remind you
how I still love you, I still love you...
Hurry back, hurry back, don't take it away from me because
you don't know what it means to me
Love of my life,
love of my life...
Uhhh... Yeah....
When you were here before,
couldn't look you in the eye.
You're just like an angel,
your skin makes me cry.
You float like a feather,
in a beautiful world
I wish I was special,
you're so fucking special.
But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo.
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here.
I don't care if it hurts,
I want to have control.
I want a perfect body,
I want a perfect soul.
I want you to notice,
when I'm not around.
You're so fucking special,
I wish I was special.
But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo.
What the hell am I doing here?.
I don't belong here
She's running out the door,
she's running,
she run, run, run, run, run.
Whatever makes you happy,
whatever you want.
You're so fucking special,
I wish I was special,
but I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo.
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here,
I don't belong here.
Two jumps in a week,
I bet you think that's pretty clever don't you boy.
Flying on your motorcycle,
watching all the ground beneath you drop.
You'd kill yourself for recognition,
kill yourself to never ever stop.
You broke another mirror,
you're turning into something you are not.
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Drying up in conversaton,
you will be the one WHO cannot talk.
All your insides fall to pieces,
you just sit there wishing you could still make love
They're the ones who'll hate you when you think you've got the
world all sussed out
They're the ones who'll spit at you.
You will be the one
screaming out.
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
It's the best thing that you've ever had,
the best thing that you've ever, ever had.
It's the best thing that you've ever had,
the best thing you've had has gone away.
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry

Push her voice inside of me
I'm overcoming gravity

It's easy when you're sad to be
Just one note
Could make me float
Could make me float away
One note from
The song she wrote
Could fuck me where I lay
Just one note
Couldd make me choke
One note that's
Not a lie
Just one note
Could cut my troat
One could make me die.
Psychic spies from China
Try to steal your mind's elation
Little girls from Sweden
Dream of silver screen quotations
And if you want these kind of dreams
Its Californication
It’s the edge of the world
And all of western civilization
The sun may rise in the east
At least it settles in a final location
It’s understood that Hollywood
Sells Californication
Pay your surgeon very well
To break the spell of aging
Celebrity skin is this your chin
Or is it war your waging
First born unicorn
Hard core soft porn
Dream of Californication
Dream of Cailfornication
Marry me girl be the fairy to my world
Be my very own constellation
A teenage bride with a baby inside
Getting high on information
And buy me a star on the boulevard
It’s Californication
Space may be the final frontier
But it’s made in a Hollywood basement
And Cobain can you hear the spheres
Singin' songs of station to station
And Alderon’s not far away
It’s Californication
Born and raised by those who praise
Control of population
And everybody’s been there
And I don’t mean on vacation
First born unicorn
Hard core soft porn
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
Destruction leads to a very rough road
But it also breeds creation
And earthquakes are to a girl’s guitar
Their just another good vibration
And tidal waves couldn’t save the world
From Californication
Pay your sugeon very well
To break the spell of aging
Sicker then the rest
There is no test
For this is what you’re craving
First born unicorn
Hard core soft porn
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
So no one told you life was gonna be this way
Your jobs a joke, you're broke, your love life's D.O.A.
It's like you're always stuck in second gear
When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month,
or even your year
but..
I'll be there for you
When the rain starts to pour
I'll be there for you
Like I've been there before
I'll be there for you
'Cuz you're there for me too...
You're still in bed at ten
And work began at eight
You've burned your breakfast
So far... Things are goin' great
Your mother warned you there'd be days like these
But she didn't tell you when the world has brought
you down to your knees and...
I'll be there for you
When the rain starts to pour
I'll be there for you
Like I've been there before
I'll be there for you
'Cuz you're there for me too...
No one could ever know me
No one could ever see me
Since you're the only one who knows
What it's like to be me
Someone to face the day with
Make it through all the mess with
Someone I'll always laugh with
Even at my worst I'm best with you, yeah
It's like you're always stuck in second gear
When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month,
or even your year...
I'll be there for you
When the rain starts to fall
I'll be there for you
Like I've been there before
I'll be there for you
'Cuz you're there for me too...
I'll be there for you
I'll be there for you
I'll be there for you
'Cuz you're there for me too...

Man it’s a hot one
Like seven inches from the midday sun
I hear you whisper & the words melt everyone
But you stay so cool
My muñequita, my Spanish harlem Mona Lisa
Your my reason for reason
The step in my groove
And if you say this life ain’t good enough
I would give my world to lift you up
I'd change my life to better suit your mood
Cause you’re so smooth
And just like the ocean under the moon
Well that’s the same as the emotion that I get from you
You got the kind of lovin that can be so smooth
Gimme your heart, make it real
Or else forget about it
I’ll tell you one thing
If you would leave it would be a crying shame
In every breath and every word I hear your name calling me out
Out from the barrio, you hear my rhythm on the radio
You feel the turning of the world so soft and slow
Turning you round and round
And if you say this life ain’t good enough
I would give my world to lift you up
I'd change my life to better suit your mood
Cause you’re so smooth
And just like the ocean under the moon
Well that’s the same as the emotion that I get from you
You got the kind of lovin that can be so smooth
Gimme your heart, make it real
Or else forget about it
Your love is better than ice cream
better than anything else that I've tried
and your love is better than ice cream
everyone here know how to fight
and it's a long way down
it's a long way down
it's a long way down to the place
where we started from
Your love is better than chocolate
better than anything else that I've tried
oh love is better than chocolate
everyone here knows how to cry
it's a long way down
it's a long way down
it's a long way down to the place
where we started from...
(VERSE 1)
I'll be your dream, I'll be your wish I'll be your fantasy.
I'll be your hope, I'll be your love be everything that you
need.
I love you more with every breath truly madly deeply do..
I will be strong I will be faithful 'cos I'm counting on a new
beginning.
A reason for living. A deeper meaning. Yeah..
(CHORUS)
I want to stand with you on a mountain.
I want to bathe with you in the sea.
I want to lay like this forever.
Until the sky falls down on me...
(VERSE 2)
And when the stars are shining brightly in the velvet sky,
I'll make a wish send it to heaven then make you want to cry..
The tears of joy for all the pleasure and the certainty.
That we're surrounded by the comfort and protection of..
The highest powers. In lonely hours. The tears devour you..
(CHORUS)
I want to stand with you on a mountain,
I want to bathe with you in the sea.
I want to lay like this forever,
Until the sky falls down on me...
(BRIDGE)
Oh can't you see it baby?
You don't have to close your eyes 'cos it's standing right
before you.
All that you need will surely come...
I'll be your dream I'll be your wish I'll be your fantasy.
I'll be your hope I'll be your love be everything that you
need.
I'll love you more with every breath truly madly deeply do...
(CHORUS )
do' yeah do' yeah
[repeat until fade]
Closing time, open all the doors
And let you out into the world
Closing time, turn all of the lights on
Over every boy and every girl
Closing time, one last call for alcohol
So finish your whiskey or beer
Closing time, you don’t have to go home
But you can’t stay here
I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
Take me home
Closing time, time for you to go out
To the places you will be from
Closing time, this room won’t be open
Till your brothers or your sisters come
So gather up your jackets, move into the exits
I hope you have found a friend
Closing time, every new beginning
Comes from some other beginning’s end
I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
Take me home
Closing time, time for you to go out
To the places you will be from
I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
Take me home
Closing time, every new beginning
Comes from some other beginning’s end
I just sware
That I'll always be there
I'd give anything and everything
And I will always care
Through weekness and strength
Happiness and sorrow
For better or for worse
I will love you
With every beat of my heart
From this moment life has begun
From this moment you are the one
Right beside you is where I belong
From this moment on
From this moment I have been blessed
I live only for your happiness
And for your love
I'd give my last breath
From this moment on
I give my hand to you with all my heart
Can't wait to live my life with you
Can't wait to start
You and I will never be apart
My dreams came true because of you
From this moment as long as I live
I will love you
I promise you this
There is nothing I wouldn't give
From this moment on
Your the reason I believe in love
And your the answer to my prayers from up above
All we need is just the two of us
My dreams came true because of you
From this moment as long as I live
I will love you
I promise you this
There is nothing I wouldn't give
From this moment
I will love you (I will love you)
As long as I live
From this moment on
Mmmmmm
"All I wanna do is have a little fun before I die,"
Says the man next to me out of nowhere, apropos
Of nothing. He says his name's William but I'm sure
He's Bill or Billy, Mac or Buddy, he's plain ugly to me.
And I wonder if he`s ever had a day of fun in his whole life.
We are drinking beer at noon on Tuesday
In a bar that faces a giant car wash
The good people of the world are washing their cars
On their lunch break, hosing and scrubbing
As best they can in skirts and suits
They drive their shiny Datsuns and Buicks
Back to the phone company, the record store,
Well, they're nothing like Billy and me.
Chorus:
All I wanna do is have some fun
I got a feeling I'm not the only one
All I wanna do is have some fun
I got a feeling I'm not the only one
Until the sun comes up over Santa Monica Boulevard.
I like a good beer buzz early in the morning
And Billy likes to peel the labels
From his bottles of Bud and shred them on the bar
Then he lights every match in an oversized pack
Letting each one burn down to his thick fingers
Before blowing and cursing them out - and he's watching
THE BOTTLES OF BUD they spin on the floor
A happy couple enters the bar dangerously close
The bartender looks up from his want ads.
Chorus
Otherwise the bar is ours, and the day and the night
And the car wash too, the matches and the Buds
And the clean and dirty cars, the sun and the moon.
Chorus
Life springs eternal
On a gaudy neon street
Not that I care at all
I spent the best part of my losing streak
In an Army Jeep
For what I can't recall
Oh I'm banging on my TV set
And I check the odds
And I place my bet
I pour a drink
And I pull the blinds
And I wonder what I'll find
I'm Leaving Las Vegas
Lights so bright
Palm sweat, blackjack
On a Saturday night
Leaving Las Vegas
Leaving for good, for good
I'm leaving for good
I'm leaving for good
Used to be I could drive up to
Barstow for the night
Find some crossroad trucker
To demonstrate his might
But these days it seems
Nowhere is far enough away
So I'm leaving Las Vegas today
I'm Leaving Las Vegas
Lights so bright
Palm sweat, blackjack
On a Saturday night
Leaving Las Vegas
Leaving for good, for good
I'm leaving for good
I'm leaving for good
I'm standing in the middle of the desert
Waiting for my ship to come in
But now no joker, no jack, no king
Can take this loser hand
And make it win
I'm Leaving Las Vegas
Lights so bright
Palm sweat, blackjack
On a Saturday night
Leaving Las Vegas
Leaving for good, for good
I'm leaving for good
I'm leaving for good
I quit my job as a dancer
At the Lido des Girls
Dealing blackjack until one or two
Such a muddly line between
The things you want
And the things you have to do
I'm Leaving Las Vegas
Lights so bright
Palm sweat, blackjack
On a Saturday night
Leaving Las Vegas
Leaving for good, for good
I'm leaving for good
I'm leaving for good
I'm leaving Las Vegas
And I won't be back
No I won't be back
Not this time
strong enough
God, I feel like hell tonight
Tears of rage I cannot fight
I'd be the last to help you understand
Are you strong enough to be my man?
Nothing's true and nothing's right
So let me be alone tonight
Cause you can't change the way I am
Are you strong enough to be my man?
Lie to me
I promise I'll believe
Lie to me
But please don't leave
I have a face I cannot show
I make the rules up as I go
It's try and love me if you can
Are you strong enough to be my man?
When I've shown you that I just don't care
When I'm throwing punches in the air
When I'm broken down and I can't stand
Will you be strong enough to be my man?
Lie to me
I promise I'll believe
Lie to me
But please don't leave
No more maybes
Your baby's got rabies
Sitting on a ball
In the middle of the andes
Yeah, Yeah.
I’m a freak of nature
Yeah, Yeah.
I'm a freak
If only I could be as cool as you
As cool as you
Body and soul, I'm a freak, I'm a freak
Body and soul, I'm a freak, I'm a freak
Try to be different
Well get a different disease
Seems it's in fashion
To need the cold sore cream
Yeah, Yeah.
I’m a freak of nature
Yeah, Yeah.
I'm a freak
I don't really know
How to put on a cool show
As boring as they come
Just tell me where to go
If only I could be as cool as you
As cool as you
As cool as you
As cool as you
Body and soul, I'm a freak, I'm a freak
Body and soul, I'm a freak, I'm a freak
Body and soul, I'm a freak, I'm a freak
Body and soul, I'm a freak, I'm a freak
Freak

Miss You Love
Millionaire say
Got a big shot deal
And thrown it all away but
But I'm not too sure
How I'm supposed to feel
Or what I'm supposed to say
But I'm not, not sure,
Not too sure how it feels
To handle every day
And I miss you love
Make room for the prey
'Cause I'm coming in
With what I wanna say but
It's gonna hurt
And I love the pain
A breeding ground for hate but...
I'm not, not sure,
Not too sure how it feels
To handle everyday
Like the one that just past
In the crowds of all the people
Remember today
I've no respect for you
And I miss you love
And I miss you love
I love the way you love
But I hate the way
I'm supposed to love you back
It's just a fad
Part of the, teen, teenage angst brigade and
I'm not, not sure,
Not too sure how it feels
To handle everyday
Like the one that just past
In the crowds of all the people
Remember today
I've no respect for you
And I miss you love
And I miss you love
Remember today
I've no respect for you
And I miss you love
And I miss you
I love the way you love
But I hate the way
I'm supposed to love you back
by Words Mick Hucknall Music Mick Hucknall & Fritz Mcintyre
Come to my aid, you're sweet as everything
Come to my aid, I'd give you anything
I feel so betrayed by a people I love
Come to my aid, it's you I'm thinking of
Prouder than wild, sad enough to sing
Come to my aid and care for social living
Chorus:
Why are we liable to die for survival
Why is our nation divided?
Come to my aid (repeat)
In the poverty stakes see just what it means
When welfare decimates you'd better care
About your fellow people
Chorus:
Why are we liable to die for survival
Why is our nation divided?
Come to my aid (repeat)
Come on board!
You've got that look again
The one I hoped I had when I was a lad
Your face is just beaming
Your smile got me boasting, my pulse roller-coastering
Anyway the four winds that blow
They're gonna send me sailing home to you
Or I'll fly with the force of a rainbow
The dream of gold will be waiting in your eyes
You know I'd do most anything you want
Hey I, I try to give you everything you need
I can see that it gets to you
I don't believe in many things
But in you I do
Her faith is amazing
The pain that she goes through contained in the hope for you
Your whole world has changed
The years spent before seem more cloudy than blue
In many ways your baby's controlling
When you haven't laid down for days
For the poor no time to be thinking
They're too busy finding ways
You know I'd do most anything you want
Hey I, I try to give you everything you need
I'll see that it gets to you
I don't believe in many things
But in you I do
You know I'd do most anything you want
Everyday I, I try to give you everything you need
We'll always be there for you
I don't believe in many things
But in you I do
Kiss me out of the bearded barley.
Lightly, beside the green, green grass.
Swing, swing, swing the spinning step.
You wear those shoes and I will wear that dress.
CHORUS
Oh, kiss me beneath the murky twilight.
Lead me out on the moonlit floor.
Lift your open hand.
Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance,
silver moon's sparkling.
So kiss me.
Kiss me down by the broken tree house.
Swing me high upon its hanging tire.
Bring, bring, bring your flowered hat.
We'll take the trail marked on your father's map.
REPEAT CHORUS 2x
Paint the town
Take a bow
Thank everybody
You're gonna do it again
You are the few, the proud
You are the antibody
Mind soul, and zen
And the world's a stage
And the world's a faze
And the end is near
So push rewind
Just in time
Thank anybody
You're gonna do it again
The way that you walk
It's just the way that you talk
Like it ain't no thing
And every single day is just a fling
Then the morning comes
Take your knocks
Shake them off
Duck everybody
You're gonna take them again
You are you foe
Your friend
You are the paparazzi
You are the tragedian
And the world's a craze
And the world's a faze
And the end is near
So push rewind
Just in time
Thank anybody
You're gonna do it again
The way the you walk
It's just the way that you talk
Like it ain't no thing
And every single day is just a fling
And when it comes it moves so slow
Kinda like it's saying I told you so
Looking back before she goes
Tomorrow's gonna hurt
And the world's a stage
And the world's faze
And the end is near
So push rewind
Just in time
Thank anybody
It's just the way that you walk
It's just the way that you talk
Like it ain't no thing
And every single day is just a fling
Then the morning comes
Shakedown 1979, cool kids never have the time
On a live wire right up off the street
You and I should meet
June bug skipping like a stone
With the headlights pointed at the dawn
We were sure we'd never see an end to it all
And I don't even care to shake these zipper blues
And we don't know just where our bones will rest
To dust I guess
Forgotten and absorbed into the earth below
Double cross the vacant and the bored
They're not sure just what we have in the store
Morphine city slippin' dues, down to see that
We don't even care, as restless as we are
We feel the pull in the land of a thousand guilts
And poured cement, lamented and assured
To the lights and towns below
Faster than the speed of sound
Faster than we thought we'd go, beneath the sound of hope
Justine never knew the rules
Hung down with the freaks and the ghouls
No apologies ever need be made
I know you better than you fake it, to see
(rpt 1)
The street heats the urgency of sound
As you can see there's no one around
It's you that I adore
You'll always be my whore
You'll be a mother to my child
And a child to my heart
We must never be apart
We must never be apart
Lovely girl, you're the beauty in my world
Without you, there aren't reasons left to find
And you'll pull your crooked teeth
You'll be perfect just like me
You'll be a lover in my bed
And a gun to my head
We must never be apart
We must never be apart
Lovely girl, you're the murder in my world
Dressing coffins for the souls I've left to die
Drinking mercury to the mystery
Of all that you should ever seek to find
In time
In you I see dirty
In you I count stars
In you I feel so pretty
In you I taste God
In you I feel so hungry
In you I crash cars
We must never be apart
Drinking mercury to the mystery
Of all that you should ever seek to find
Lovely girl, you're the murder in my world
Dressing coffins for the souls I've left behind
In time
We must never be apart
And you'll always be my whore
'Cause you're the one that I adore
And you'll pull your crooked teeth
You'll be perfect just like me
In you I feel so dirty
In you I crash cars
In you I feel so pretty
In you I taste God
We must never be apart
Call you up in the middle of the night
Like a firefly without a light
You were there like a slow torch burning
I was a key that could use a little turning
So tired that I couldn't even sleep
So many secrets I couldn't keep
Promised myself I wouldn't weep
One more promise I couldn't keep
It seems no one can help me now
I'm in too deep
There's no way out
This time I have really led myself astray
CHORUS
Runaway train never going back
Wrong way on a one way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor there
Can you help me remember how to smile
Make it somehow all seem worthwhile
How on earth did I get so jaded
Life's mystery seems so faded
I can go where no one else can go
I know what no one else knows
Here I am just drownin' in the rain
With a ticket for a runaway train
And Everything seems cut and dry
Day and night, earth and sky
Somehow I just don't believe it
CHORUS
Bought a ticket for a runaway train
Like a madman laughin' at the rain
Little out of touch, little insane
Just easier than dealing with the pain
CHORUS
Runaway train never comin' back
Runaway train tearin' up the track
Runaway train burnin' in my veins
Runaway but it always seems the same
by Music: Cornell, Thayil; Lyrics: Cornell
Take, if you want a slice
If you want a piece
If it feels alright
Break, if you like the sound
If it gets you up
If it brings you down
Share, if it makes you sleep
If it sets you free
If it helps you breathe
Don't come over here
And piss on my gate
Save it just keep it
Off my wave
Cry, if you want to cry
If it helps you see
If it clears your eyes
Hate, if you want to hate
If it keeps you safe
If it makes you brave
Pray, if you want to pray
If you like to kneel
If you like to lay
Don't come over here
And piss on my gate
Save it just keep it
Off my wave
Keep it off my wave
Keep it off my wave
Keep it off my wave
My wave
Cry, if you want to cry
If it helps you see
If it clears your eyes
Hate, if you want to hate
If it keeps you safe
If it makes you brave
Take, if you want a slice
If you want a piece
If it feels alright
Don't come over here
And piss on my gate
Save it just keep it
Off my wave
Keep it off my wave
Keep it off my wave
My wave
Forward yesterday
Makes me wanna stay
What they said was real
Makes me wanna steal
Livin' under house
Guess I'm livin', I'm a mouse
All's I gots is time
Got no meaning, just a rhyme
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause I like to steal
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal, I like to steal
I'm half the man I used to be
Because I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
Well, I'm half the man I used to be
Because I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
Well, I'm half the man I used to be
Because I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
Well, I'm half the man I used to be, half the man I used to be
Feelin' uninspired
Think I'll start a fire
Everybody run
Bobby's got a gun
Think you're kinda neat
Then she tells me I'm a creep
Friends don't mean a thing
Guess I'll leave it up to me
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal
Take time with a wounded hand
Guess I like to steal
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal, I like to steal
I'm half the man I used to be
Because I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
I'm half the man I used to be
Because I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
I'm half the man I used to be
Because I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
I'm half the man I used to be, half the man I used to be
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal
Take time with a wounded hand
Guess I like to steal
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal, I like to steal
I'm half the man I used to be
Because I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
Well, I'm half the man I used to be
Because I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
Well, I'm half the man I used to be
Because I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
Well, I'm half the man I used to be, half the man I used to be,
Half the man I used to be
Falling falling
Gonna drop like a stone
I'm falling through the atmosphere
On a warm afternoon
If lovers discover
That ev'ryone dies
So don't tell me, please hole me
It's a dangerous life
Daddy dear
Let's get outta here
I'm scared
10 o'clock
Nighttime in New York
It's weird
If you're looking for trouble
That's what you will find
Mom & pop
They will fuck you up
For sure
Love so deep
Kills you in your sleep
It's true
Love keeps us together
And love keeps us alive
And we - are criminals that never
broke no laws
And all - we needed was a net
to break our fall
They're searching for diamonds
They're grabbin' at straws
Sex 'n' sin
Sax 'n' violins
It's hell
Wooden heads
Furniture with legs
For sale -
Love keeps us together
And love will drive us insane
And we - are criminals that never
broke no laws
And all - we needed was a net
to break our fall
Going home
Back where I belong
To stay -
Rays of light
They will turn the light
TO day -
Birds travel together
Birds follow the sun
And I - am watching as the birds go flying home
HIGH TIME WE MADE A STAND AND SHOOK UP
THE VIEWS OF THE COMMON MAN
D.J.´S THE MAN WE LOVE THE MOST
COULD YOU BE, COULD YOU BE SQUEAKY CLEAN
AND SMASH ANY HOPE OF DEMOCRACY?
AS THE HEADLINE SAYS YOU´RE FREE TO CHOOSE
THERE´S AN EGG ON YOUR FACE AND MUD ON YOUR SHOES
ONE OF THESE DAYS THEY´RE GONNA CALL IT THE BLUES
AND ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE WHEN YOU´RE
SOWING THE SEEDS OF LOVE
ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE
SOWING THE SEEDS OF LOVE
I SPY TEARS IN THEIR EYES
THEY LOOK TO THE SKIES FOR SOME KIND
OF DIVINE INTERVENTION
FOOD GOES TO WASTE!
SO NICE TO EAT, SO NICE TO TASTE
POLITICIAN GRANNIE WITH YOUR HIGH IDEALS
HAVE YOU NO IDEA HOW THE MAJORITY FEELS?
SO WITHOUT LOVE AND A PROMISED LAND
WE´RE FOOLS TO THE RULES OF A GOVERNMENT PLAN
KICK OUT THE STYLE: BRING BACK THE JAM
ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE WHEN...
SOWING THE SEEDS
THE BIRDS AND THE BEES
MY GIRLFRIEND AND ME IN LOVE
FEEL THE PAIN
TALK ABOUT IT
IF YOU´RE A WORRIED MAN
THEN SHOUT ABOUT IT
OPEN HEARTS
FEEL ABOUT IT
OPEN MINDS
THINK ABOUT IT
EVERYONE
READ ABOUT IT
EVERYONE
SCREAM ABOUT IT!
EVERYONE
EVERYONE
EVERYONE
READ ABOUT IT
READ ABOUT IT
READ IT IN THE BOOKS IN THE CRANNIES
AND THE NOOKS THERE ARE BOOKS TO READ
by (music/lyrics: Cornell)
Please, mother mercy / Take me from this place / And the long
winded curses / I keep hearing in my head / Words never listen /
And teachers never learn / Now I'm warm from the candle / But I
feel too cold to burn / He came from an island / And he died
from the street / He hurt so bad like a soul breaking / But he
never said nothing to me / So say hello to heaven
New like a baby / Lost like a prayer / The sky was your
playground / But the cold ground was your bed / Poor stargazer /
She's got no tears in her eyes / Smooth like whisper / She knows
that love heals all wounds with time / Now it seems like too
much love / Is never enough, you better seek out / Another road
'cause this one has / Ended abrupt, say hello to heaven
I never wanted / To write these words down for you / With the
pages of phrases / Of things we'll never do / So I blow out the
candle, and / I put you to bed / Since you can't say to me / Now
how the dogs broke your bone / There's just one thing left to be
said / Say hello to heaven
Well, shake it up baby now
Twist and shout
Come on, come on, come, come on baby now

Esta indecision me molesta

"Me entra frio por los ojos"
It´s late at night, and I´m feeling down
There's couples standing in the street
sharing summer kisses and silly sounds
so I step inside, pour a glass of wine
with a full glass and empty heart
i search for something to occupy my mind
'cos you are in my head
swimming forever in my head
tangled in my dreams
swimming forever
(chorus)
so I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
and all the songs we used to know
(listen to them)
so I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
remember where we used to go
Now It´s morning light, and it´s cold outside
caught up in a distant dream
I turn and think that you are by my side
So I leave my bed and i try to dress
Wondering why my mind plays tricks
And fools me into thinking you are there
But you´re still in my head
swimming forever in my head
not lying in my bed
just swimming forever
repeat chorus (2x)
you are in my head
swimming forever
repeat chorus
(listen to them) I listen to the radio
and all the songs we used to know
I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
to all the songs we used to know
I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
to all songs, all the songs we used to know hey
(listen to the radio, listen to them)
all the songs we used to know
(listen to the radio, listen to them)
yeah yeah
(listen to the radio, listen to them)
yeah
(listen to the radio)
People are strange, when you're a stranger
Faces look ugly when you're alone
Women seem wicked, when you're unwanted
Streets are uneven, when you're down
When you're strange- faces come out of the rain (rain, rain)
When you're strange- no one remembers your name
When you're strange, when you're strange, when you're str-ange
Repeat entire song
Here you go, way too fast
Don't slow down your gonna crash
You should watch what you say here
Don't look out, gonna break your neck
So shut, shut your mouth
'Cuz I'm not listening anyhow
I've had enough, enough of you
Enough to last a life time through
So what do you want of me?
I ainit got no words of sympathy
And if I go around with you
You know that I get messed up to
With you...
Na na na na na na na na na woah
Na na na na na na na na na woah
Here you go way too fast
Don't slow down, your gonna crash
You don't know whats been going down
You've been running all over town
So shut, shut your mouth
'Cuz i'm not listening anyhow
I've had enough, enough of you
Enough to last a life time through
So wot do you want of me
I ain't got no cure for misery
And if I go around with you
You know that I get messed up to
With you...
With you...
With you...
Na na na na na na na na na woah
(Don't slow down, your gonna crash)
Na na na na na na na na na woah

Na na na na na na na na na woah
(Don't slow down, your gonna crash)
repeat 'til end
She confessed her love to me
Then she vanished on the breeze
Trying to hold on to that was just impossible
She was more than beautiful
Closer to etherial
With a kind of down to earth flavor
Close my eyes
It's three in the afternoon
Then I realize
That she's really gone for good
Anybody seen my baby
Anybody seen her around
Love has gone and made me blind
I've looked but I just can't find
She has gotten lost in the crowd
I was flippin' magazines
In that place on Mercer Street
When I thought I spotted her
Getting on a motor bike
Looking rather lady like
Didn't she just give me a wave?
Salty tears
It's three in the afternoon
Has she disappeared
Is she really gone for good
Anybody seen my baby
Anybody seen her around
If I just close my eyes
I reach out and touch the prize
Anybody seen her around
(Rap)
Anybody seen my baby
Anybody seen her around
If I just close my eyes
I reach out and touch the prize
Anybody seen her around
Lost, lost and never found
I must have called her a thousand times
Sometimes I think she's just in my imagination
Lost in the crowd
If you start me up
If you start me up I'll never stop
If you start me up
If you start me up I'll never stop
I've been running hot
You got me ticking gonna blow my top
If you start me up
If you start me up I'll never stop
You make a grown man cry
Spread out the oil, the gasoline
I walk smooth, ride in a mean, mean machine
Start it up
If you start it up
Kick on the starter give it all you got, you got, you got
I can't compete with the riders in the other heats
If you rough it up
If you like it you can slide it up, slide it up
Don't make a grown man cry
My eyes dilate, my lips go green
My hands are greasy
She's a mean, mean machine
Start it up
If start me up
Give it all you got
You got to never, never, never stop
Never, never
Slide it up
You make a grown man cry
Ride like the wind at double speed
I'll take you places that you've never, never seen
Start it up
Love the day when we will never stop, never stop
Never stop, never stop
Tough me up
Never stop, never stop, never stop
You, you, you make a grown man cry
You, you make a dead man cum
You, you make a dead man cum
by Music By: Glen Phillips And Toad, Lyrics By: Glen Phillips
it's hard to rely on my good intentions
when my head's full of things that i can't mention
seems i usually get things right
but i can't understand what i did last night
it's hard to rely on my own good senses
when i miss so much that requires attention
have to laugh at myself sometimes
and i can see that i'm not blind
there's little relief
give us reprieve
for all the things i've left behind
i'm positive that i'm not blind
i'm not afraid things won't get better
but it feels like this has gone on forever
you have to cry with your own blue tears
have to laugh with your own good cheer
it's hard to rely on my good intentions
when my head's full of things that i can't mention
seems i usually get things right
but i can't understand what i did last night
there's little relief
give us reprieve
imagining the world outside
i'm positive that i'm not blind
i can't be hard on you
'cause you know i've been there too
learned a lot of things from you
but life gives little relief
give us reprieve
and when everyone is cold as ice
i clinch my fists and close my eyes
imagining the world outside
but i can see that i'm not blind
Every finger in the room is pointing at me
I wanna spit in their faces then I get afraid of what that could
bring
I got a bowling ball in my stomach, I got a desert in my mouth
Figures that my courage would choose to sell out now
I've been looking for a savior in these dirty streets
Looking for a savior beneath these dirty sheets
I've been raising up my hands - drive another nail in
Just what God needs, one more victim
Why do we crucify ourselves
Everyday I crucify myself
Nothing I do is good enough for you
I crucify myself
Everyday I crucify myself
And my heart is sick of being in
And my heart is sick of being in chains
Chains
Got a kick for a dog, beggin' for love
Gotta have my suffering so that I can have my cross
I know a cat named easter, he says will you ever learn
You're just an empty cage girl if you kill the bird
I've been looking for a savior in these dirty streets
Looking for a savior beneath these dirty sheets
I've been raising up my hands - drive another nail in
Got enough guilt to start my own religion
Why do we crucify ourselves
Everyday I crucify myself
Nothing I do is good enough for you
I crucify myself
Everyday I crucify myself
and my heart is sick of being in
and my heart is sick of being in chains
Chains
Please be
Save me
I cry
Looking for a savior in these dirty streets
Looking for a savior beneath these dirty sheets
I've been raising up my hands- drive another nail in
Where are those angels when you need them
Why do we crucify ourselves
Everyday I crucify myself
Nothing I do is good enough for you
I crucify myself
Everyday I crucify myself
And my heart is sick of being in
And my heart is sick of being in chains
Chains
Why do we
Crucify ourselves
Everyday
I crucify myself
Now I'm going back to find myself
Is it getting better
Or do you feel the same?
Will it make it easier on you now
You got someone to blame?
You say
One love, one life
When it's one need
In the night
One love
We get to share it
It leaves you, baby
If you don't care for it
Did I disappoint you
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without
Well, it's too late
Tonight
To drag your past out
Into the light
We're one
But we're not the same
We get to carry each other
Carry each other
One
Have you come here for forgiveness?
Have you come to raise the day?
Have you come to play Jesus
To the lepers in your head?
Did I ask too much
More than a lot?
You gave me nothing now
It's all I got
We're one
But we're not the same
We will
We hurt each other
Then we do it again
You say
Live is a temple
Love, the higher law
Love is a temple
Love, the higher law
You as me to enter
And then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on
To what you got
When all you got is hurt
One love
One blood
One life you got
To do what you should
One life
With each other
Sisters, brothers
One life
But we're not the same
We get to carry each other
Carry each other
One ... one
Uh, uh, uh, oh
Make, make it, make it
Ahh, ahh, oh
Ahh, ahh
And one
Ahh, ahh ... oh
Red, red wine
Go to my head
Make me forget that I
Still need her so
Red, red wine
It's up to you
All I can do, I've done
Mem'ries won't go
Mem'ries won't go
I'd have swamp
That with time
Thoughts of you
Would leave my head
I was wrong
And I find
Just one thing makes me forget
Red, red wine
Stay close to me
Don't let me be alone
It's tearin' apart
My blue, blue heart

85 miles out of Nashville, thinkin' bout the way things change
Try an keep it by the reigns
I'm a lone drifter, big money flipper
Take anything you got on the rocks in a snifter
I missed her in Kentucky, went down to Lousiana
I never had no lovin' like I had in Alabama
A man of my word ain't out to hurt nobody
I'm jus a m c to keep the boogie in the party
Been singin' lodi dodi since 84 and
I'll be singin' lodi dodi 'til I'm 84
I couldn't ask for more, life's been sweet
So you can save the planet, I'll save your seat
I been gone for weeks, I ain't slept in days
I can't find myself in this self made maze
It's been so long since I've been fine
I'm just tryin' to see the bottom of this bottle of wine
And I know I'll see better days
Well I know you'll see things my way
I never thought about change until
Spend a little time where time stood still
Been lookin' for a mill but I keep comin' up shy
I been broke fool, I ain't tryin' to be that guy
Wanna ride like lightning, roll like thunder
I'm tryin' to get some money, I ain't getting any younger
At times I wonder, at times I won't
Sometimes I give a fuck but most times I don't
Don't, Don't even care, through stained glass windows these eyes
stare
I try to stay straight but it's kickin' my ass
Everytime I look ahead I get a glimpse of the past
I sit half mass like a sholdier's flag
That's why my left leg limps and my Dickies sag
It's been so long since I've been fine
I'm just tryin' to see the bottom of this bottle of wine
And I know I'll see better days
Well I know you'll see things my way (X2)
Well I been all around this crooked land
I come across all walks, I shook Jim Beam's hand
I got no plans and no place to go
It keeps getting harder to just say no
I see people laugh and people cry
That's how some live and that's how some die
Well me myself I'm gonna sit right here
And I'm a watch this world break down in tears
All my fears and dark gray skies
Couldn't crack my smile or break my stride
Got too much pride, I got too much shout
I might be down but I still ain't out
Got too much time and that's all I have
When I leave this world I'll still be sad
It's been so long since I've been fine
I'm just tryin' to see the bottom of this bottle of wine
And I know I'll see better days
Well I know you'll see things my way (X2)
Don't wanna wait 'til tomorrow
why put it off another day?
one by one, little problems
build up, and stand in our way. Oh
One step ahead, one step behind it
now you gotta run to get even
make future plans I'll dream about yesterday, hey!
come on turn, turn this thing around
Hey! It's your tomorrow
come on, it's everything
catch your magic moment
do it right here and now
it means everything
Miss a beat, you lose a rhythm
and nothin' falls into place
only missed by a fraction
slipped a little off your pace
The more things you get, the more you want
just trade in one for another
workin' so hard to make it easy
got to turn, come on
turn this thing around
Hey, it's your tomorrow
come on, it's everything
catch that magic moment
do it right here and now
it means everything
it's enlightened me
right now
what are you waitin' for?
right now
Hey! It's your tomorrow
come on, it's everything
catch that magic moment
and do it right, right now
oh, right now!
It's what's happening
right here and now
right now, it's right now
tell me, what are you waitin' for?
Turn this thing around
Sirens ring, the shots ring out
A stranger cries, screams out loud
I had my world strapped against my back
I held my hands, never knew how to act
Chorus:
And the same black line that was drawn on you
Was drawn on me
And now it's drawn me in
6th Avenue heartache
Below me was a homeless man
Singin' songs I knew complete
On the steps alone, his guitar in hand
His fifty years, he stood where he stands
(Chorus)
Now walkin' home on those streets
The river winds move my feet
The subway steam, like silhouettes in dreams
They stood by me, just like moonbeams
(Chorus)
Looked out the window, down upon that street
And gone like a midnight was that man
But I seen his six strings laid against that wall
And all his things, they all look so small
I got my fingers crossed on a shooting star
Just like me- he just moved on
(chorus)
So long ago, I don't remember when
That's when they say I lost my only friend
Well, they said she died easy of a broken heart disease
As I listened through the cemetery trees
I seen the sun comin' up at the funeral at dawn
The long broken arm of human law
Now, it always seemed such a waste
She always had a pretty face
I wondered why she hung around this place
(CHORUS):
Hey, come on try a little
Nothing is forever
There's got to be something better than
In the middle
But me and Cinderella
We put it all together
We can drive it home
With one headlight
She said it's cold
It feels like Independence Day
And I can't break away from this parade
But there's got to be an opening
Somewhere here in front of me
Through this maze of ugliness and greed
And I seen the sun up ahead
At the county line bridge
Sayin' all there's good and nothingness is dead
We'll run until she's out of breath
She ran until there's nothin' left
She hit the end, it's just her window ledge
(CHORUS)
Well, this place is old
It feels just like a beat up truck
I turn the engine, but the engine doesn't turn
Well, it smells of cheap wine and cigarettes
This place is always such a mess
Sometimes I think I'd like to watch it burn
I'm so alone, and I feel just like somebody else
Man, I ain't changed, but I know I ain't the same
But somewhere here in between the city walls of dyin' dreams
I think of death, it must be killin' me...
(CHORUS)
Move yourself
You always live your life
Never thinking of the future
Prove yourself
You are the move you make
Take your chances win or loser
See yourself
You are the steps you take
You and you and that's the only way
Shake, shake yourself
You're every move you make
So the story goes
{Refrain} Owner of a lonely heart
Owner of a lonely heart
Much better than a
Owner of a broken heart
Owner of a lonely heart
Say you don't want to chance it
You've been hurt so before
Watch it now The eagle in the sky
How he dancin' one and only
You, lose yourself
No not for pity's sake
There's no real reason to be lonely
Be yourself Give your free will a chance
You've got to want to succeed
{Refrain}
Owner of a lonely heart
After my own decision
They confused me so
Owner of a lonely heart
My love said never question your will at all
In the end you've got to go Look before you leap
Owner of a lonely heart
And don't you hesitate at all, no no
{Refrain twice}
Owner of a lonely heart
Sooner or later each conclusion
Will decide the lonely heart
Owner of a lonely heart
It will excite it will delight
It will give a better start
Owner of a lonely heart
Don't deceive your free will at all
Don't deceive your free will at all
Owner of a lonely heart
Don't deceive your free will at all
Just receive it
