What is it that you want from me?
I really wish I knew.
I try so hard to do my best,
But it's not good enough for you.
Over and over again
We will make the same mistakes.
Over and over again
There's a feelin' I just can't shake.
Is it time to go our separate ways?
Is it time to go our separate ways?
You know I need your love so bad.
Can't you see what you do to me?
I try so hard to understand,
But the truth's never plain to see.
Is it time to go our separate ways?
Is it time to go our separate ways?
Time after time we will try to understand.
I don't know where we went wrong,
But there's no use in holdin' on.
Over and over again
We will make the same mistakes.
Over and over again
And it's more than a man can take.
Is it time to go our separate ways?
Is it time to go our separate ways?
Is it time to go our separate ways?
The wind is up,
And the sky is falling.
The thunder cracks,
And the sea is rolling.
Wonder if we'll ever see tomorrow.
Ride with our backs to the wind,
Don't know if I'll make home again.
Running from the storm.
Running from the storm.
Running from the storm.
Running from the storm.
The sky is black,
And the wind is howling.
The lightning strikes,
And the sea is raging.
Wonder if we'll ever see tomorrow.
Turning our ships to the sun,
This time there is no place to run.
Running from the storm.
Running from the storm.
Running from the storm.
Running from the storm.
Running from the storm.
Running from the storm.
Running from the storm.
Running from the storm.
Running from the storm.
Running from the storm.
Running from the storm.
I used to wake up in the morning with an aching head.
I couldn't remember anything I'd said.
My friends told me I was getting out of line.
If it wasn't for you baby, I'd be doing time.
Since I met you baby,
You've made a new man of me.
Since I met you baby,
I'm happy as a man could be.
Yes, I am.
I used to think I was better than the rest.
Ain't no doubt about it, I was no second best.
Didn't seem to matter what was right or what was wrong.
I did some crazy things before you came along.
Since I met you baby,
You've made a new man of me.
Since I met you baby,
I'm happy as a man could be.
Yes, I am.
Since I met you baby.
Since I met you baby.
Since I met you baby.
Since I met you baby.
Since I met you baby,
I'm happy as a man could be.
One more time!
Since I met you baby.
Since I met you baby.
Since I met you baby.
Since I met you baby.
Since I met you baby.
Since I met you baby.
Since I met you baby.
Since I met you baby.
Well, since I met you baby,
I'm happy as a man could be.
Yes, I am.
Happy as a man can be.
You tell 'em Gary!

They came for him one winter's night.
Arrested, he was bound.
They said there'd been a robbery,
his pistol had been found.
They marched him to the station house,
he waited till the dawn.
And as they led him to the dock,
he knew that he'd been wronged.
You stand accused of robbery,
he heard the bailiff say.
He knew without an alibi
tomorrow's light would mourn his freedom.
Over the hills and far away,
for ten long years he'll count the days.
Over the mountains and the seas,
a prisoner's life for him there'll be.
He knew that it would cost him dear,
but yet he dare not say.
Just where he had been that fateful night,
a secret it must stay.
He had to fight back tears of rage.
His heart beat like a drum.
For with the wife of his best friend,
he'd spent his final night of freedom.
Over the hills and far away,
he swears he will return one day.
Far from the mountains and the seas,
back in her arms again he'll be.
Over the hills and far away.
Each night within his prison cell,
he looks out through the bars.
He reads the letters that she wrote.
One day he'll know the taste of freedom.
Over the hills and far away,
she prays he will return one day.
As sure as the rivers reach the seas,
back in his arms again she'll be.
Over the hills and far away,
he swears he will return one day.
As sure as the river reach the sea,
back in his arms is where she'll be.
Over the hills and far away,
she prays he will return one day.
As sure as the rivers reach the seas,
back in her arms is where he'll be.
Over the hills.
Over the hills and far away.
Over the hills.
Over the hills and far away.

Monday morning feels so bad.
Everybody seems to nag me.
Come on Tuesday I feel better.
Even my old man looks good.
Wednesday just won't go,
Thursday goes too slow.
I've got Friday on my mind.
Gonna have fun in the city.
Be with my girl, she's so pretty.
She looks fine tonight.
She is outa' sight to me.
Tonight, I'll paint it red.
Tonight, I'll lose my head.
Tonight, I've got to get tonight.
Monday I have Friday on my mind.
Do the five day drag once more.
No one, nothing else that bugs me.
Now I'm working for the rich man.
But I'll change his tune one day.
Tonight I'll get mad.
Tomorrow I'll be glad.
'Cause I've got Friday on my mind.
Gonna have fun in the city.
Be with my girl she's so pretty.
She looks fine tonight.
She is outa' sight to me.
Tonight, I'll paint it red.
Tonight, I'll lose my head.
Tonight, I've got to get tonight.
Monday I have Friday on my mind.
Yeah.
Gonna have fun in the city.
Be with my girl she's so pretty.
Gonna have fun in the city.
Gonna have some fun.
Be with my girl she's so pretty.

Gonna have fun in the city.
Gonna have some fun.
Be with my girl she's so pretty.
In the city tonight.
Gonna have fun in the city.

Searching each day for the answers,
watching our hopes disappear.
Set on a course for disaster,
living our lives in fear.
Our leaders leave us in confusion.
For them there's only one solution.
Caught in the fight for survival,
trapped with our backs to the wall.
Are we just lambs to the slaughter?
Who wait for the axe to fall.
Our world is headed for destruction.
Our fate is in the hands of fools.
Shadows of the past,
victims of the future.
How long will it last,
victims of the future.
Into the verbal arena,
armed with the lies that they tell.
They're fighting for world domination,
backed by the weapons of hell.
Is there no end to all this madness?
Is there no hope for us at all?
Shadows of the past,
victims of the future.
How long will it last,
victims of the future.
Shadows of the past,
victims of the future.
How long will it last,
victims of the future.
Shadows of the past,
victims of the future.
How long will it last,
victims of the future.
Yeah.
Shadows of the past,
victims of the future.
How long will it last,
victims of the future.
Shadows of the past,
victims of the future.
How long will it last,
victims of the future.
Victims of the future.
Victims of the future.
Victims of the future.
Victims of the future.
Yeah.

He never did much good when he went to school.
Too many teachers, there were too many rules.
A dirty faced kid, he was never outta trouble.
His Mom and Poppa told him better get out on the double.
But when he heard that music on the radio,
he knew one day he was gonna be a teenage idol.
He quit his job in the factory.
He was tired of makin' peanuts, so he jumped out of the tree.
He couldn't wait another day to get out of that place.
He punched the clock, and he broke its face.
But when he heard that guitar on the radio,
he knew one day he was gonna be a teenage idol.
Teenage idol.
He's a teenage idol, he knows how to rock and roll.
A teenage idol, he's way out of control.
He dumped his chick and he sold his car.
He bought himself a hot guitar.
He joined a band and they cut some tracks.
He hit the road and he's never looked back. Oh, no.
And now they're playing all his records on the radio.
And everybody knows, he's gonna be a teenage idol.
He's a teenage idol, he knows how to rock and roll.
A teenage idol, he's way out of control.
He's just a teenage idol, he knows how to rock and roll.
He's a teenage idol, he's way out of control.
And now they're playing all his records on the radio.
Everybody knows that he's gonna be a teenage idol.
Teenage idol.
He's a teenage idol, he knows how to rock and roll.
He's just a teenage idol, he's way out of control.
He's a teenage idol, he knows how to rock and roll.
A teenage idol, he's way out of control.
We're talking about a teenage idol.
You know what I mean.
He might be in your town next week,
so just look out.
Get those tickets while they're hot.
(Samwell-Smith/Relf/McCarty)
Shapes of things before my eyes,
just teach me to dispise.
Will time make man more wise?
Here, within my lonely frame.
My eyes just hurt my brain.
But will it seem the same?
Come tomorrow, will I be older?
Come tomorrow, maybe a soldier?
Come tomorrow, will I be bolder than today?
Now, the trees are almost green.
But will they still be seen,
when time and tide have been?
Soon, I hope that I will find
thoughts deep within my mind,
that won't disgrace my kind.
Come tomorrow, will I be older?
Come tomorrow, maybe a soldier?
Come tomorrow, will I be bolder than today?
Shapes of things before my eyes,
just teach me to dispise.
Will time make man more wise?
(Gary Moore/Neil Carter)
Time was running out for all on board,
soaring up through the shadows of night.
High above the clouds the engines roared,
this would be their final flight.
The russians have shot down a plane on its way to Korea.
Two hundred and sixtynine innocent victims have died.
Murder in the skies, came without a warning.
Murder in the skies, black September morning.
Murder in the skies.
Time was running out for everyone,
flying over the Sea of Japan.
None would live to see the rising sun,
death was following close at hand.
The russians have shot down a plane on its way to Korea.
Two hundred and sixtynine innocent victims have died.
Murder in the skies, came without a warning.
Murder in the skies, black September morning.
Murder in the skies, came without a warning.
Murder in the skies, black September morning.
Murder in the skies, came without a warning.
Murder in the skies, black September morning.
Murder in the skies, came without a warning.
Murder in the skies, black September morning.
Murder in the skies.
Murder in the skies.
Murder in the skies.
Murder, Murder in the skies.
Murder in the skies.

We step into a world of danger.
Each night we answer neon's call.
We steer away from passing strangers,
jumping at shadows on the wall.
The law of the jungle
is so hard to break.
When death walks behind you,
with each step you take.
Who knows what's waiting in the darkness?
Only the neon sees it all.
Who knows what lurks beyond the shadows?
The strong survive, the weak must fall.
The law of the jungle
is so hard to break.
When death walks behind you,
with each step you take.
The law of the jungle.
The law of the jungle.
The law of the jungle.
It's kill or be killed.
The law of the jungle
is so hard to break.
When death walks behind you,
with each step you take.
The law of the jungle.
The law of the jungle.
The law of the jungle.
It's kill or be killed.
The law of the jungle.
The law of the jungle.
The law of the jungle.
It's you or it's me.
The law of the jungle.
The law of the jungle.
The law of the jungle.

Look at you, a fool in love.
A man too blind to see.
You never ask yourself why they all leave you.
You try to play so many games.
You give yourself away.
And then you wonder why no one believes you.
You've got to realise
that this is goin' nowhere.
You've got to understand
that there's so much you can share.
You know you've got to
hold on to love
if you wanna learn to forget your sorrow.
You've got to
hold on to love
like there's no tomorrow.
Look at you, a fool in love.
A man too blind to see.

hold on to love
if you wanna learn to forget your sorrow.

You know you've got to
hold on, hold on, hold on,

There'll be a prize to pay,
if your love runs away.
Hold on, hold on,
hold on to love.

I don't know what is wrong with you.
Baby, baby, whatcha tryin' to do to me?
Lovin' you has got me so confused,
I'm sick and tired of always bein' abused this way.
All I want from you is your sweet lovin',

All I want from you is your sweet lovin',
it's gonna make me feel allright.
Yeah.
I don't know what's on your mind.

Oh, pretty woman
sure's the rising sun.
Says all your cheap paint and powder
ain't gonna help you none.
'Cause she's a pretty woman
right down to her bone.
So you might as well
leave your skin alone.
Pretty woman,
what's the matter with you?
Can't make you love me
no matter what I do.
Oh, pretty woman,
whatcha gonna do?
You kept on foolin' around
till I got stuck on you.
So you can drop your mess
and come down off your throne,
stop using my poor heart
as just a stepping stone.
Pretty woman,
what's the matter with you?
Can't make you love me
no matter what I do.
Oh, pretty woman
that's all right for you.
Now you just go on doing
what you wanna do.
But someday when you think
that you've got it made,
you're gettin' water deep enough
so you can't wade.
Pretty woman,
what's the matter with you?
Can't make you love me
no matter what I do.
Oh, pretty woman.
Oh, pretty woman.
Oh, pretty woman.
Oh, pretty woman.
Can't make you love me
no matter what I do. No!

no matter what I do.
Oh, pretty woman,
I just can't make you love me.
Oh, no.

It's the darkest hour
of the darkest night.
It's a million miles
from the morning light.
Can't get no sleep.
Don't know what to do.
I've got those midnight blues.
When the shadows fall,
I feel the night closing in.
There must be some reason
for this mood I'm getting in.
Can't get no sleep.
Don't know what to do.
I've got those midnight blues.
Every evening after sundown,
as the light begins to fade.
I feel so low, but I just don't know
why these blues won't go away.

He was born in Mississippi 1924.
He was born in Mississippi 1924.
Left his home with no money.
He had to pay his dues,
but he knew the time was comin'
when he'd be king of the blues.
King of the blues!
Lost his heart to a woman, Lucy was her name.
Lost his heart to a woman, Lucy was her name. Yes, it was.
When he hears her sing so sweetly,
he knows he just can't lose.
When he holds her in his arms he knows that
he's the king of the blues.
He's a Hunter with a Crosscut Saw.
Born Under A Bad Sign.
Caught his baby messin' down the Laundromat.
He Almost Lost his Mind.
Yeah!
He was born in Mississippi 1924.
He was born in Indianola, Mississippi 1924. Yes, he was!
He doesn't need no jester to keep him amused.
He's got Lucy by his side,
he's making headline news.
Doesn't need no palace,
like Freddie down in Dallas.
You can call him what you like,
I call him king of the blues.
That's right, mister Albert King of the blues.
Yeah!
King of the blues.
Let me hear ya!

Run - run - run - run
Run, you'd better find somewhere to run.
You've made a fool of everybody.
But you're not fooling anyone.
Hide, you always need someplace to hide.
But you can't hide from what's inside yourself.
You just can't face it.
Run, run for cover now.
You'd better run for cover now.
You'd better find some other place to hide

Sometimes it seems,
that you've had more than enough.
As your life is going nowhere,
and you feel like giving up.
Sometimes you know,
that you can't take anymore.
When things are getting harder
than they've ever been before.
Don't lose your heart when things go wrong.
You know what to do now.
Just turn your back and carry on, come on.
Reach for the sky.
Come out with your hands up.
Reach for the sky.
Come out with your hands up.
Sometimes it seems,
like you've really lost your way.
When you're mind is full of doubt,
you've got nothing left to say.
You're going around in circles
like a man who's running blind.
But the world must keep on turning,
and it's leaving you behind.
Don't lose your heart when things go wrong.
You know what to do now.
You've got the strenght to carry on, come on.
Reach for the sky.
Come out with your hands up.

One day, I will write for you a lovesong mother.
As the children say, I love you, please hold me.
And you and I, we will live our life together.
Until that day when we die, I will love you mother.
I will always love you.
I'am writing from this war.
Oh mama, I don't know what I'm fighting for.
And have you seen my children?
God bless them, kiss them,
and tell them that I miss them.
See I'm frightened in the dark,
mama, mama.
The blood is ankle deep.
They have trained your boy to kill.
And kill someday he will.
They have trained your boy to die.
Mama take a look at your boy,
take a look at him now,
take a look at your boy.
He's marching,
he's a soldier.
Oh brother, oh mama.
He's on the street.
He's marching to the backbeat.
(Gary Moore/Neil Carter)
Lonliness is your only friend.
A broken heart that just won't mend,
is the price you pay.
It's hard to take when love grows old.
The days are long and the nights turn cold,
when it fades away.
You hope that she will change her mind,
but the days drift on and on.
You'll never know the reason why she's gone.
Empty rooms,
where we learn to live without love.
Empty rooms,
where we learn to live without love.
You see her face in every crowd.
You hear her voice, but you're still proud,
so you turn away.
You tell yourself that you'll be strong.
But your heart tells you,
this time you're wrong.
Empty rooms,
where we learn to live without love.
Empty rooms,
where we learn to live without love.
Empty rooms,
where we learn to live without love.
You hope that she will change her mind,
but the days drift on and on.
You'll never know the reason why she's gone.
Empty rooms,
where we learn to live without love.
Empty rooms,
where we learn to live without love.
Empty rooms,
where we learn to live without love.
Empty rooms,

The party's over, I can't drink no more.
My head is hurtin', I'm looking for the door.
But it's so hard to find, so hard to find.
Walk to my car on my hands and my knees.
Hand in my pocket, I'm looking for the keys.
But they're so hard to find.
Look at my son, he's no friend of mine.
Reach for my shades before I go blind.
Maybe tomorrow I don't wanna know.
All messed up with no place to go.
I'm seeing double, the whisky's to blame.
I'm having trouble remembering my name.
So hard to tell, it's so hard to tell.
Can't get no sleep, there's a quarrel and fight.
I'm not sure if I'm dead or alive.
So hard to tell.
Look at my son, he's no friend of mine.
Reach for my shades before I go blind.
Maybe tomorrow I don't wanna know.
All messed up with no place to go.
I can't believe it's really me in the mirror.
Feel like I'm falling of the rails,
looks like a hellhouse on my tail.
Look at my son, he's no friend of mine.
Reach for my shades before I go blind.
Maybe tomorrow I don't wanna know.
All messed up with no place to go.
All messed up with no place to go.
All messed up with no place to go.
All messed up with no place to go.
All messed up,
all messed up,
all messed up with no place to go.
All messed up with no place to go.

There is only tomorrow,
nothing but sorrow waiting for you.
Don't look for any mystery,
it's only history we're passing through.
The threat from the east
growing stronger with each passing hour.
All systems are failing,
and talks with the west have turned sour.
The leaders are waiting for blood on their hands.
Playing with weapons they don't understand.
Could it be this time we'll see the end of the world.
Each day brings a new danger,
love is a stranger we used to know.
Outside, the sun goes on rising.
But we're realizing there's not long to go.
The storm clouds are forming,
take heed of the warning to come.
The Kremlin has told every nation
there's no place to run.
The leaders are waiting for blood on their hands.
Playing with weapons they don't understand.
Could it be this time we'll see the end of the world.
The end of the world.
The end of the world.
The end of the world.
The threat from the east
growing stronger with each passing hour.
All systems are failing,
and talks with the west have turned sour.
The leaders are waiting for blood on their hands.
Playing with weapons they don't understand.
Could it be this time we'll see the end of the world.
The end of the world.
The end of the world.
The end of the world.
(Repeat to end)
(Gary Moore)
You've been turnin' me upside down
since the day I met you.
But no matter how hard I try,
I can't seem to forget you.
You've been turning me inside out
since the day I found you.
So why do I spend all of my time
just hangin' around you?
I don't care what you say to me.
From the way you been behaving
now it's plain to see.
You're gonna break my heart again.
You're gonna break my heart again.
Like you broke my heart before.
Everybody tells me
that I'd be better off without you.
So why do I spend all of my time
just thinking about you?
I don't care what you say to me.
From the things that I been hearing
now it's plain to see.
You're gonna break my heart again.
You're gonna break my heart again.
You're gonna break my heart again.
Just like you broke my heart before.
I don't care what you say to me.
From the way you been behaving
now it's plain to see.
You're gonna break my heart again.
You're gonna break my heart again.
You're gonna break my heart again.
Just like you broke my heart before.
You're gonna break my heart again.
You're gonna break my heart again.
Just like you broke my heart before.
You're gonna break my heart again.
You're gonna break my heart again.
You're gonna break my heart again.
You're gonna break my heart again.
(Gary Moore)
Whenever I'm with you,
the more I can give you,
the love that's inside my heart.
No, it's not easy,
but baby believe me,
it hurts me when we're apart.
But the road won't go on forever.
You can dry your tears away.
Whenever you're near me,
I know you can hear
the love beating in my heart.
I know it ain't easy,
but baby believe me,
it hurts me when we're apart.
But the road won't go on forever.
You can dry your tears away.
No, the road won't go on forever.
I'll be by your side someday.
But the road won't go on forever.
You can dry your tears away.
No, the road won't go on forever.
I'll be by your side someday.
Won't go on forever,
won't go on forever,
won't go on forever,

Take a look in the mirror
What do you see
Take a look deep inside you
Are you still free?
There is no peace of mind
When love turns so unkind.
Why does love have to go wrong?
When we try hard to hold on
Why does love have to go wrong?
Take a look all around you
What do you see
Through the pain that surrounds you
Are you still free?
There are no words to say
When the light fades to grey
Why does love have to go wrong?
When we try hard to hold on
Why does love have to go wrong?
Just a moment and it's gone
Take a look in the mirror
What do you see
Take a look deep inside you
Set yourself free
There is no plaxe to hide
When all the flames have died
Why does love have to go wrong?
When we try hard to hold on
Why does love have to go wrong?
Just a moment and it's gone
(Gary Moore/Jack Bruce)
Maybe the sun will keep on shining
Maybe the stars fall from the skies
Where there's a river flowing There is no way of knowing Where it goes, no one knows.
Maybe the rain will go on falling
Maybe the rain maountains touch the skies
Where there's a cold wind blowing
There is no way of knowing; where it goes, no one knows.
Living alone in the city
All of our dreams left behind
In every life there are seasons of laughter and sorrow.
Where in the world did our love go?
Where did our dreams choose to hide?
Where in the world did our love go?
When did our dreams say goodbye?
Living alone in the city
All of our dreams left behind
In every life there are seasons of laughter and sorrow.
Where in the world did our love go?
Where did our dreams choose to hide?
Where in the world did our love go?
When did our dreams say goodbye?
Where in the world
Where in the world
Where in the world did our love go?
(Gary Moore/Jack Bruce)
She was standing in the dark
Waiting in the wings
Just around the next dream
She was holding all the keys
To set my heart free
Behind the shadows of love.
From the distance I could see
Her standing alone
Shine like a jewel in the night
Hidden from the eyes
A theif of the soul
Behind the shadows of love.
Set me on fire with the stoires you tell
Drown in the ocean of dreams
Close to the flame on wings of desire
Nothing's what it seems
She was waiting oustside with arms open wide
Ready to break my heart's fall
Oh the lighting in her eyes
I learned how to fly
Behind the shadow of love.
Set me on fire with the stoires you tell
Drown in the ocean of dreams
Close to the flame on wings of desire
Nothing's what it seems
(Allen Jones/Sherwin Hamlett)
The price is gettin' higher every day
When it comes to good loving it's the same old way
The high cost of love it's getting higher every day
Seems like the less I get the more I have to pay.
I came home with the groceries, you said you need some more
I gave you my last two dollars, you said you need 3 or 4
The hight cost of love it's getting higher every day
Seems like the less I get the more I have to pay.
I bought you a leather coat, you said you wanted a mink
The way you spend my money you think you're married to a bank
The high cost of love it's getting higher every day
Seems like the less I make, Lord, the more I have to pay.
Where I live they want to raise my rent
Before I make a dollar you know it's already spent
The high cost of love it's getting higher every day
Seems like the less I get, Oh, the more I have to pay
Seems like the less I get, Oh, the more I have to pay.
(Gary Moore/Jack Bruce)
Will we find a place in tomorrow
Will we find the way to our dreams
Will we shine our light through the darkest night
Till the morning.
Glory Days
Don't let these times be forgotten
Glory Days
Don't let them fade from our hearts.
There's a time we left far behind us
Though the seeds of hope still remain
And the wheel must turn but the fires still burn
In the morning.
Glory Days
Don't let these times be forgotten
Glory Days
Don't let them fade from our hearts
Glory Days
Don't let these times be forgotten
Glory Days
Don't let them fade from our hearts.
Will we find ourselves in tomorrow
Will we find a way to your dreams
Will we shine so bright, turn your darkest night
To the morning.
Glory Days
Don't let these times be forgotten
Glory Days
Don't let them fade from our hearts
Glory Days
Don't let these times be forgotten
Glory Days
Don't let them fade from our hearts.

In my home of sand outside the city of gold
The wind's so burning hot but my heart remains so cold
I need to buy myself some answers
But the truth's already been sold.
Well I know how to use a razor
Carve my initials in the light
Yes I know how to use a razor
Carve my initials in the light
But sometimes in the depth of the dark, baby
I can make everything all right.
In my home of sand outside the city of gold
Well the wind's so burning hot but my heart remains so cold
The shelter in your eyes, I dream about it when I die
Thirst for it when I cry
My meal of salt upon that table of stone
My meal of salt upon that table of stone
Your feat's so sweet while I thirst here all alone.
In my home of sand outside the city of gold
The wind's so burning hot but my heart remains so cold
I need to buy myself some aspirin
But the truth's already been sold.
(Jack Bruce/Gary Moore/Kip Hanrahan)
You can fool the landlord sp you don't pay the rent
You can fool the world and become the president
You can fool all the people some the time
You can make a million dollars and cry"I don't have a lousy dime"
But you can't fool the blues
You can't fool the blues
When you're makin' all the rules it's so hard to lose
You can't fool the blues, oh no.
You can fool the Romans into lending you an ear
Write a story in the papers believing every smear
You can fool the rich by driving around in a wreck
You can get up someone's nose every time you bounce a cheque
But you can't fool the blues
No you can't fool the blues
You can't fool the blues it just laughs at each lie
Can't fool the blues, oh no.
You can fool your brother into lending you his car
Rub up the waitress for some coctails at the bar
You can talk some bimbo into taking you home
You can fool the wife into thinking you're alone
But you can't fool the blues
You can't fool the blues
That blues chews you up and spits you right out
You can't fool the blues, oh no.

So many came before you,
the prisoners of fate.
A history of bloodshed,
a legacy of hate.
But where will you be standing
when the battles have been won?
Inside your lonely fortress
the battle's just begun.
After the war
who will you be fighting for?
After the war is over.
After the fire
is burning to it's dying embers.
After the war.
A letter from the draft board,
put pain to all your dreams.
You're just another number
in military schemes.
They marched you in a uniform
you wore against your will.
With lies of hope and glory,
they taught you how to kill.
After the war
who will you be fighting for?
After the war is over.
After the fire
is burning to it's dying embers.
After the war.
After the war,
you thought you'd be a hero.
After all that you survived.
If hell was meant for heroes,
you'd surely have arrived.
After the war. After the war.
After the war
who will you be fighting for?
After the war
who will you be fighting for?
After the fire
is burning to it's dying embers.
After the war.

Well, I came into the city
with a swansuit on my back.
I didn't have no place to live,

The rhythm of our lives is changing day by day.
It seems no matter what I do or what I say,
that I'm always there for you,
but you're never here for me.
So many times you take me halfway to my dreams,
but then you close the door, and every time it seems
that I'm always there for you,
but you're never here for me.
Yes, I'm always there for you,
but you're never here for me.

Wild in the street

Dead, dead on my feet,

Sometimes when I look around
at people who are lonely,
I feel a sense of sadness deep inside.
It makes me wonder how I got along
before I found you,
and what I'd do if you should turn around
and say goodbye.
'Cause baby you,
you're what I'm living for.
I couldn't have asked for more.
Right from the moment that I found you,
I knew that you,
you were the one for me.
The one who could make me see,
this world could be a brighter place.
Sometimes when I think about
the friends I left behind me,
I feel a sense of sadness deep inside.
It makes me wonder how I knew
that one day you would find me,
and what I'd do if you should turn around
and say goodbye.
'Cause baby you,
you're what I'm living for.
I couldn't have asked for more.
Right from the moment that I found you,
I knew that you,
you were my brightest star.
And whether you're close or far,
you're always here inside my heart.

Ain't gonna worry no more,

Ain't gonna worry no more,

I'm tired of waiting by the telephone,
I'm tired of waiting till the cows come home.
I'm tired of waiting when you're not around,
I'm sick of waiting till the sun goes down.
Ain't gonna worry no more.
Ain't gonna trouble myself,

I said, I ain't gonna trouble my sweet self,

I remember the old country
they call the emerald land.
And I remember my home town
before the wars began.
Now we're riding on a sea of rage,
the victims you have seen.
You'll never hear them sing again
The Forty Shades Of Green.
We're goin' back to the wild frontier.
Back to the wild frontier, it's calling.
Back to the wild frontier.
We're goin' back,
back to the wild frontier.
I remember my city streets
before the soldiers came.
Now armoured cars and barricades
remind us of our shame.
We are drowning in a sea of blood,
the victims you have seen.
Never more to sing again
The Forty Shades Of Green.
We're goin' back to the wild frontier.
Back to the wild frontier, it's calling.
Back to the wild frontier.
Back to the wild frontier, it's calling.
Those are the days I will remember.
Those are the days I most recall.
We count the cost of those we lost
and pray it's not in vain.
The bitter tears of all those years.
I hope we live to see those days again.
Now we're riding on a sea of rage,
the victims you have seen.
You'll never hear us sing again
The Forty Shades Of Green.
And I remember a friend of mine,
so sad now that he's gone.
They tell me I'll forget
as time goes on.
We're goin' back to the wild frontier.
Back to the wild frontier, it's calling.
Back to the wild frontier.
We're goin' back,
back to the wild frontier (can you hear it callin'?).
Back to the wild frontier (can you hear it callin', callin?),
back to the wild frontier.
Back to the wild frontier (can you hear it callin'?).
I'm goin' back,
back to the wild frontier (can you hear it callin', callin'?).
It's calling me,
I hear it calling (can you hear it callin'?).
Oh, the wild frontier is calling me (can you hear it callin', callin'?).
I hear it calling,
hear it calling me back home again (can you hear it callin'?).
We're goin' back to the wild frontier (can you hear it callin', callin'?).
We're goin' back, we're goin' back, we're goin' back.

Ooh, yeah-yeah,
yeah-yeah-yeah.
It's five o'clock in the mornin',
but I'm not going to bed.
I just wanna stay up all night, yeah,
and make my eyes turn red.
Now, let me tell you what I'm gonna do,
I'll keep on moving till the night is through.
And I'll be rockin' and rollin',
rockin' and rollin', rockin' and rollin'.
Rockin' and rollin',
rockin' and rollin', rockin' and rollin'.
About a week ago on Monday,
I met this chick called Sue.
She said "Come over to my place,
I'll show you what to do."
I ended up stayin' the night,
she did some things that made me feel allright.
We were rockin' and rollin',
rockin' and rollin', rockin' and rollin'.
Rockin' and rollin',
rockin' and rollin', rockin' and rollin'.
I can't wait for the weekend,
there's a new girl in town.
I got me plenty of money,
I'm gonna spread it around.
Friday, Saturday, Sunday,
I tell you what I'll do.
Friday, Saturday, Sunday,
that's when I'm on the move.
I'll go struttin' with my friends,
I'll keep on movin' till the party ends.
We'll be rockin' and rollin',
rockin' and rollin', rockin' and rollin'.
Rockin' and rollin',
rockin' and rollin', rockin' and rollin'.
Aah.
Rockin' and rollin',

Rockin', rockin' and rollin'.
Wow.
(Gary Moore)
Ever since it all began,
a woman and an only man.
What happened to the world in which we're living?
We take, when all this time we could be giving.
And I ask myself each day,
where did we go wrong?
And I wonder when I pray,
where did we go wrong?
Ever since it all began,
one woman and a lonely man.
I worry for the world in which we're living.
We take, when all this time we could be giving.
And I ask myself each day,
where did we go wrong?
And I wonder when I pray,
where did we go wrong?
With every turn our world is growing older.
But does it mean our hearts are turning colder?
With every teardrop falls a shining star.
It seems so wrong, but now we've come so far.
After all is said and done,
I know I'm not the only one
who worries for this world in which we're living,
who cares about the love we should be giving.
And I ask myself each day,
where did we go wrong?
And I wonder when I pray,
where did we go wrong?

(Gary Moore)
Searching for the answers,
looking for the meaning of our different ways.
Try to understand it,
all of our misgivings is the price we pay.
But what are we here for?
Have we learned a single thing?
What are we here for?
Have we been through everything,
or must we stay until we get it right?
Travelling through the darkness,
guided by the light that shines on everyone.
Each of us an island,
moving through the universe since time began.
But what are we here for?
Have we learned a single thing?
What are we here for?
Have we been through everything,
or must we stay until we get it right?
So many of our dreams are telling us just who we are,
where we're from and how we came so far.
If we would only listen to the things within we know are true,
then all of us would see a brighter day.
Searching for the answers,
hidden in the meaning of our different ways.
Try to understand it,
all of our misgivings is the price we pay.
But what are we here for?
Have we learned a single thing?
What are we here for?
Have we been through everything,
or must we stay until we get it right?
Or must we stay until we get it right?
(Gary Moore)
The same with all the human race,
with nothin' to take it's place.
We want lovin',

Every woman, every man,

Everybody on this earth,
tryin' to find out what they're worth.

Well, how come, when you talk to her
she's listening to the music
on the radio tonight?
You can't keep her attention,
'cause she's concentratin'
on a late night movie show, allright.
I know you thought that you had it goin'
when she let you in through her front door.
But now you know, it's getting so late
and she don't want you around here no more.
I could have told you before.
You should have known it right from the start,
that the woman's in love,
the woman's in love with someone.
And you know it's gonna break your heart.
You'd better leave her alone,
the woman's in love with someone else.
But it ain't you.
I know that when she smiled
across the room at you tonight
you thought you had it made, oh yeah.
But maybe you reminded her
of someone else
though you can never take his place, oh no.
'Cause when you're feelin' so lonely,
a little conversation can go a long way.
But that's as far as you're gonna get,
'cause she's not the kind of woman to stray.
I could have told you before.
You should have known it right from the start,
that the woman's in love,
the woman's in love with someone.
And you know it's gonna break your heart.
You'd better leave her alone,
the woman's in love with someone else.
The woman's in love with me.
The woman's in love with me,
yeah-yeah.

a little conversation can go a long way.
But that's as far as you're gonna get,

Don't want no evil woman
make a fool out of me.
My girl she's so sweet,
she's my honey bee.
She feels the same way about me.
She feels the same way about me.
She feels the same way.
Wake up in the morning,
get my breakfast in my bed.
My girl she's so good,
love her till I'm dead.
She feels the same way about me.
She feels the same way about me.
She feels the same way.

We step into a world of danger.
Each night we answer neon's call.
We steer away from passing strangers,
jumping at shadows on the wall.
The law of the jungle
is so hard to break.
When death walks behind you,
with each step you take.
Who knows what's waiting in the darkness?
Only the neon sees it all.
Who knows what lurks beyond the shadows?
The strong survive, the weak must fall.
The law of the jungle
is so hard to break.
When death walks behind you,
with each step you take.
The law of the jungle.
The law of the jungle.
The law of the jungle
is kill or be killed.
Aogh.
The law of the jungle
is so hard to break.
When death walks behind you,
with each step you take.
The law of the jungle.
The law of the jungle.
The law of the jungle
is kill or be killed.
The law of the jungle.

It's you or it's me.

Used to be so easy to give my heart away
But I found out the hard way
There's a price you have to pay
I found out that love, was no friend of mine
I should have known time after time
So long, it was so long ago
But I've still got the blues for you
Used to be so easy to fall in love again
But I found out the hard way
It's a road that leads to pain
I found that love, was more than just a game
You're playin' to win, but you lose just the same
So long, it was so long ago
But I've still got the blues for you
So many years, since I've seen your face
But here in my heart, there's an empty space
Where you used to be
So long, it was so long ago
But I've still got the blues for you
Though the days come and go
There is one thing I know
Instrumental
Want you to hear me when I say
That the blues is back,
And it's here to stay.
I wanna tell you a story,
A story all about the blues.
I want you to listen to me baby,
While I sing it to you.
Want you to hear me when I say
That the blues is back,
And it's here to stay.
I used to have me somebody,
She mean't the whole world to me.
But she left me for someone else,
Left my heart in misery.
Yes, she did!
But I knew the day she left me
That the blues was gonna be a part of me.
Yes, it was.
Since you left me with the blues,
It was the last thing I thought I could use.
But I'm glad that you left me,
Left me with the blues.
If you hadn't given me the blues,
I wouldn't find myself someone sweet as you.
And I'm gonna tell you.
I said hey, hey, the blues is allright.
Hey, hey, the blues is allright.

She's that kind of woman.
No doubt about how she feels.
She's holding promises.
Her eyes won't tell,
her lips are sealed.
And I like her like that.
She's kind of crazy.
I think I know what I'm looking for.
That kind of woman.
I think I know what I'm looking for.
That kind of woman.
Standing in the doorway
with the sunlight in her hair.
She's watching the wind blow.
You know she don't have a care.
I like her like that.
She's kind of crazy.
I think I know what I'm looking for.
That kind of woman.
I think I know what I'm looking for.
That kind of woman.
She's got to look so cool, you know what I mean.
Got the wickedest smile that I've ever seen.
I crashed my heart on the side of the street
that she once stood on.
She's that kind of woman.
I like her like that.
She's pretty amazing.
I understand why I want some more.
That kind of woman.
One look from her knocks me on the floor.
That kind of woman.
She's that kind of lady
that you meet in a dream of dreams.
Puts others in her shadow,
but you know this woman's real.
And I like her that.
She's kind of crazy.
I think I know what I'm looking for.
That kind of woman.
I think I know what I'm looking for.

Let me tell you about the Texas blues.
I went down south to Dallas,
to hear those cowboys wail.
Came across that Billy Gibbons
ridin' on that ZZ trail.
I just can't lose with the Texas blues.
I said I just can't lose with the Texas blues.
The Texas blues.
Got myself in Double Trouble,
when I saw that Texas Flood.
Stevie said The Sky Is Crying,
superstition's in his blood.
I just can't lose with the Texas blues.
I said I just can't lose with the Texas blues.
The Texas blues.
How-how-how-how.
Come on!
I heard that Houston Twister.
He could run you off the tracks.
When he plays that Cold Cold Feeling,
you get the shivers down your back.
I just can't lose with the Texas blues.
I said I just can't lose with the Texas blues.
The Texas blues.
A-how-how-how-how.
Well, I'm going back to Dallas.
Won't go waitin' for no bus.
Ridin' off into the sunset.
You won't see my heels for dust.
I just can't lose with the Texas blues.
I said I just can't lose with the Texas blues.
I said I just can't lose with the Texas blues.
And I just can't lose with the Texas blues.

Surrender, surrender,
surrender, surrender.
Look at me and look at you,
the things we put each other through.
And every day that we're apart,
the scars run deeper through my heart.
Surrender, surrender,

Now that I anticipate,
when I'm with you the world can wait.
Heaven's door is open wide
when it's you I feel inside.
Surrender, surrender,
to our love so tender.
Look at me and look at you,

Oh, baby please stop messin' around.
You're messin' around with my heart.
Baby please stop messin' around.
You're messin' around with my heart.
And if you don't stop messin' baby,
pretty soon we're gonna have to part.
Oh, baby please stop messin' around.
You're messin' around all the time.
Baby please stop messin' around.
You're messin' around all the time.
And if you don't stop messin' baby,

Squeeze me baby till my face turn cherry red.
Roll me so hard, I'll fall right out of bed.

Shapes of things before my eyes,
just teach me to dispise.
Will time make man more wise?
Here, within my lonely frame.
My eyes just hurt my brain.
But will it seem the same?
Come tomorrow, will I be older?
Come tomorrow, maybe a soldier?
Come tomorrow, will I be bolder than today?
Now, the trees are almost green.
But will they still be seen,
when time and tide have been?
Soon, I hope that I will find
thoughts deep within my mind,
that won't disgrace my kind.
Come tomorrow, will I be older?
Come tomorrow, maybe a soldier?
Come tomorrow, will I be bolder than today?
Shapes of things before my eyes,
just teach me to dispise.
Will time make man more wise?
Yeah.
Yeah.

Oh, strangers.
He get's this feeling.
It's there within, each time he wakes.
This empty feeling.
Before too long, he'll start to shake.
You see him after midnight
on the city streets.
He turns away
to hide his eyes from those he meets.
Strangers in the darkness.
You see them everywhere.
She's just a young girl.
She's left her home for better times.
She's made the wrong friends.
She's turning to a life of crime.
She sells her fading beauty
to the passers by.
She tries to hide
that faroff look.
It's in her eyes.
Strangers in the darkness.
You see them everywhere.
So many strangers in the darkness.
Why is it no one seems to care?
Oh, strangers in the darkness.
Strangers in the darkness.
They found him after midnight
on a city street.
A young man with a problem
that he couldn't beat.
Strangers in the darkness.
You see them everywhere.
So many strangers in the darkness.
Why is it no one seems to care?
(Gary Moore)
I need you to show me the way.
"Can you help me?" is all I can say.
I need you to set me on straight.
Help me now before it's too late.
Come along, I'll give you your directions
how to try, but nothin' I see.
Or is it just a subtle reflection
of what I am or am destined to be.
I need you to set me on straight.

Tell me anybody,
do you really give a damn for me?
I said, tell me anybody,
do you really give a damn for me?
'Cause I just got to tell you
'bout a thing that's botherin' me.
I was a ramblin' pony.
I would roll, I would roll,
I would roll from town to town.
I was a ramblin' pony.
People, I would roll from town to town.
Yes, just looking for a sweet woman,
and makin' all my love come on down.
Yeah.

Said you're sittin' there so green,
believe me, man, I'm just the same as you.
Do you want me to make a last cry or be satisfied?
That's exactly what I mean to do.

How come, when she's cold
she can melt your heart?
And when she's so blond
it tears you apart.
She's making it clear,
but you don't see through her.
She's got you where she wants you now.
She's got you where she needs you now.
How come, when she's bad
that you feel so good?
You know you can head,
but it's understood.
You know when she's wrong,
but you tell her she's right.
She's got you where she wants you now.
She's got you where she needs you now.
Under her spell, under her thumb.
No place to hide, no place to run.
If she's your life,
how can she take your breath away
with just one look at her?
And if she's your world,
why can't you tell your nights from day?
When she turns around,
does she know when she's found her a fool.
She's got you where she wants you now.
She's got you where she needs you now.
She's got you where she wants you now.
She's got you where she needs you now.

I never realized that you were in pain.
Wanna help you honey, let me see you again.
Hurts my soul baby, when I find you're feeling rough, yeah.
Life is so bad baby,
when do I find the key to love?
The smile on your face wipe away those tears.
Life is gonna get better as you live through those years.
Hurts my soul baby, when I find you're feeling rough, ooh.
Life is so bad baby,
when do I find the key to love?
Somewhere in this world, the one you're waiting for,
gonna come along baby, turn the key to your door.
Hurts my soul baby, when I find you're feeling rough, yeah.
Life is so bad baby,
when do I find the key to love?
When do I find the key to love?
(Gary Moore)
As the day begins, it finds me wonderin'
what to do with myself.
You came here, you left your mark, you disappeared,
now there is nobody else.
Time was we sailed across the mountain.
The song of the sky made my body rejoice.
Time was we sailed across the mountain.
Sailed across the mountain,
and the sun was in my voice.
I need someone to come along and
take this weight right of my shoulder before I fall.
You were here, but now you've gone.
The summer came and slept away from under us all.
Time was we sailed across the mountain.
The mist cleared away and I saw your face there.
Time was we sailed across the mountain.
Sailed across the mountain,
and the sun was in your hair.
The mountainside is very steep,
can't go on, I've tried to sleep.
Somebody lay me down.
If you don't climb, you're gonna fall,
catch your wary dreams at all.
A-a-ah, yeah (somebody lay me down).
Back in the ground,
yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah.
Somebody lay me down.
I need somebody (somebody lay me down).
Need somebody to lay me down,
yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah,
somebody to lay me down.
How I got here I can't say.
It was my own fault,
I admit that I should have learned.
From watching others I have seen
it's either up or down,
there can be no in-between.
Time was we sailed across the mountain.
To think it could last can't have been very wise.
Time sent me falling down the mountain.
Falling down the mountain,
for the sun was in my eyes.
(Gary Moore)
One, two, one-two-three-four.
You've got to be mean, you've got to be tough,

You've got to be hard or else you'll be done.
You have to take care of number one.
Don't come to me if you're out on the street.
I'll only tell you to get up on your feet.
Don't come to me if you feel you are through,
'cause I don't have the time to listen to you.
Run to your mama, but don't come crying to me.
Run to your mama, but don't come crying to me.
You've got to be smooth, you've got to be rough,
you don't need none of that pity stuff.
You've got to be cruel, forget bein' kind,

Don't come to me if you're down on the ground.
If it's problems you've got, I don't need you around.
Don't come to me if your luck is in doubt,
'cause I won't even listen, I'll just kick you out.
Run to your mama, but don't come crying to me.

Allright!
Let me tell you 'bout a place I know.
The kind of place where the kids all go.
Come along baby you can shake off your blues.
Don't be shy, you've got nothin' to lose.
We'll be rockin' every night,
rollin' till the break of day.
Rockin' every night,
rollin' till the break of day.
Yeah-yeah-yeah.
Let me tell you 'bout a girl I met.
She made it hard for me to forget.
She said "Ask me no questions, I'll tell you no lies."
So I gave it to her straight between the eyes.
We were rockin' every night,
rollin' till the break of day.
Rockin' every night,
rollin' till the break of day.
That's right, we were rockin'.
Allright!
You know what I mean.
I don't care if they call the cops.
I'm gonna keep on rockin' till the party stops.
You can leave if there's too much noise.
You know what they say,
boys will always be boys.
That's right.
You know what I mean.
Aaah.
Rockin' every night,
rollin' till the break of day.
We were rockin' every night,
rollin' till the break of day.
That's right, yeah!
Hah.
I don't care if the neighbours shout.
I don't care if they kick me out.
I'll come right back and knock down the door.
'Cause when I start to rock,
you know I always want more.
I always want more, just like my name says.
Yeah, that's right.
That's right.
Keep on rockin', keep on rollin'.
Keep on rockin', keep on rollin' every night.
(Gary Moore)
He sees her face in the mirror.
But as he turns, she starts to fade.
He hears her footsteps behind him.
But when he looks, she's gone again.
He hears her voice in the darkness.
As he awakes, she calls his name.
He sees her shadow on the wall
and counts her tears in the falling rain.
She has passed away
a long, long time ago.
Why she haunts him to this day,
he'll never know.
Rest, rest in peace.
You have gone, please leave me alone.
Rest, rest in peace.
You must go, heaven is your home now.
Rest, rest in peace.
You have gone, please leave me alone.
Rest, rest in peace.
You must go, heaven is your home now.
Rest, rest in peace.
You have gone, please leave me alone.
Rest, rest in peace.
You must go, heaven is your home now.

Picture of the moon
you gave to me that night.
The stars were out to play,
the moon was shining bright.
If only I had known
that it would end so soon.
I was left with a picture of the moon.
The sound of soft guitars
beneath the spanish skies.
Across the candle lights
the sadness in your eyes.
If only I had known
that it would end so soon.
I was left with a picture of the moon.
Picture of the moon
you gave to me that night.
The stars were out to play,
the moon was shining bright.
However could I know
that it would end so soon?
I was left with a picture of the moon.
I was left with a picture of the moon.
All that's left is a picture of the moon.

Over the hills and far away,
for ten long years he'll count the days.
Over the mountains and the seas,
a prisoner's life for him there'll be.
He knew that it would cost him dear,
but yet he dare not say.
Just where he'd been that fateful night,
a secret it must stay.
He had to fight back tears of rage.
His heart beat like a drum.
For with the wife of his best friend,
he spent his final night of freedom.
Over the hills and far away,
he swears he will return one day.
Far from the mountains and the seas,
back in her arms again he'll be.
Over the hills and far away.
Over the hills and,
over the hills and,
over the hills and,
over the hills and,
over the hills and far away.
Each night within his prison cell,
he looks out through the bars.
He reads the letters that she wrote.
One day he'll know the taste of freedom.
Over the hills and far away,
she prays he will return one day.
As sure as the rivers reach the seas,
back in his arms again she'll be.
Over the hills and far away,
he swears he will return one day.
As sure as the river reach the seas,
back in his arms is where she'll be.
Over the hills and far away,
she prays he will return one day.
As sure as the rivers reach the sea,
back in her arms is where he'll be.
Over the hills,
over the hills and far away.
Over the hills,
over the hills and far away.
(Gary Moore)
You're out of reach, you're out of touch.
This time baby you've run out of love.
You're out of sight, you're out of mind.
Another heartache I've left behind.
It doesn't make any difference
where you go from here.
Too many times you've been running
I was here, over and over again.
Well I've got you out of my system.
I've got you out of my soul.
We've been through this a thousand times.
Too many partners for your perfect crimes.
You turned your back when I was down.
Well this time baby I won't be around.
It doesn't make any difference
what you do or say.
This time it's over forever.
I'm on my way,
don't wanna see you again.
Well I've got you out of my system.
I've got you out of my soul.
Well I've got you out of my system.
And now I'm right outside your control.
It doesn't make any difference
where you go from here.
Too many times you've been running
I was here, over and over again.
Well I've got you out of my system.
I've got you out of my soul.
Well I've got you out of my system.
And now I'm right outside your control.
I've got you out of my system.
Well I've got you out of my system.
Out of my system.
I've got you out of my soul.
Out of my soul.
Well I've got you out of my system.
(Gary Moore)
It's not the same when I look in her eyes.
The magic's not there.
And when I look, I realize
what we could have shared.
I'm always gonna love you,
if loving means forever.
I'm always gonna want you.
I don't think I could ever
just forget the love we had.
It's not the same when she's here in my arms,
or the smile on her face.
And even though with all of her charms,
she can't take your place.
I'm always gonna love you,
if loving means forever.
I'm always gonna want you.
I don't think I could ever
just forget the love we had.
It's not the same when I look in her eyes.
The magic's not there.
And when I look, I realize
what we could have shared.
I'm always gonna love you,
if loving means forever.
I'm always gonna want you,
if loving means forever.
I'm always gonna love you,
if loving means forever.
I'm always gonna want you,
if loving means forever.
I'm always gonna love you.
(Gary Moore)
Take me out of here.
This place is gettin' much to small.
Make me disappear,
vanish through the nearest wall.
Give me one good reason why I should stay.
Give me one good reason to go on this way.
Give me one good reason why I should stay with you,
with you.
Take me out of here.
This place is closing in on me.
Make it disappear,
somewhere else I wanna be.
Give me one good reason why I should stay.
Give me one good reason to go on this way.
Give me one good reason why I should stay with you,
with you.
How, yeah.
Give me one good reason why I should stay.
Give me one good reason to go on this way.
Give me one good reason why I should stay with you,
with you, with you.
Take me out of here.
(Gary Moore)
One of these days we'll be together.
One of these days we'll be as one.
Love and illumination
all across every nation.
One fine day, we will walk in the sunshine.
One fine day, we will reach to the stars.
Oh-oh, wow-wow-wow-wow-wo-wow.
One of these days we'll be together.

I was looking back to see
If she was looking back to see
If I was looking back at her
I saw her walking down the street
Though little does she look so sweet
I followed her for half a mile
I had to stop and talk a while
I was looking back to see
If she was looking back to see
If I was looking back at her
She had a yellow golden hair
I'm gonna follow everywhere
She had a wiggle when she walk
I wanted her to stop and talk
You know that I was looking back to see
If she was looking back to see
If I was looking back at her
Yeah
She had a yellow golden hair
I'm gonna follow everywhere
She had a wiggle when she walk, yeah
I wanted her to stop and talk
You know that I was looking back to see
If she was looking back to see
If I was looking back at her
You know that I was looking back to see
If she was looking back to see
If I was looking back at her
You know that I was looking back to see
If she was looking back to see
I never met a woman
Who could make me feel the way you do
'Cause when I look into your eyes
You don't know what I'm going through
I was looking for someone to turn to
Something I'd never had before
And then you came into my life
Now I can open any door
Once in a lifetime
I could ever find someone like you
Once in a lifetime
I could ever find someone like you
I never met a girl before
Who could understand a man like me
'Cause when I hold you in my arms
I just know that this was meant to be
I was looking for some understanding
Something I'd never had before
And then you came into my life
Now I can open any door
Once in a lifetime
I could ever find someone like you
Once in a lifetime
I could ever find someone like you
Once in a lifetime
Just once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime
I was looking for someone to turn to
Something I'd never had before
And then you came into my life
Now I can open any door
Once in a lifetime
I could ever find someone like you
Once in a lifetime

Once in a lifetime
That I could ever find someone like you
Just once in a lifetime
I could ever find someone like you
Once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime
What can you say?
There isn't much to tell.
I'm going downhill
And I blame myself.
I've been jumpin' at shadows,
Thinking 'bout my life.
Everybody points their hand at me.
I know I'm just a picture
Of what I should've been.
I've been jumpin' at shadows,
Thinking 'bout my life.
What can you say?
There isn't much to tell.
I'm going downhill
And I blame myself.
I've been jumpin' at shadows,
(Gary Moore)
Another time, another place.
The lonely streets where we embraced.
Then you would go without a trace.
Nothing's the same without you.
Another day goes passing by.
I sit alone and wonder why.
Sometimes it's hard, but I will try
to live my life without you.
You're in my heart, you're in my dreams.
You're everywhere or so it seems.
So many times I've heard that song.
Hold back the tears, pretend you're strong.
Another day goes slowly by.
I sit alone and wonder why.
I think of you, I start to cry.
Nothing's the same without you.
Another time, another place.
The sweetness of our last embrace.
What would I give to see your face.
Nothing's the same without you.
Nothing's the same,
nothing's the same,
nothing's the same without you.
(Little Willie John)
Need someone's hand
to lead me through the night.
Need someone's arms
to hold and squeeze me tight.
'Cause when the night begins,
I'm at an end,
because I need your love so bad.
Need some lips
to feel next to mine.
Need someone to stand up
and tell me when I'm lyin'.
When the lights are low,
and it's time to go,
that's when I need your love so bad.
Why don't you give it up,
bring it on home to me,
or write it on a piece of paper, darlin',
so it can be read to me.
Tell me that you love me
and stop driving me mad,
beacause I, I need your love so bad.
Need your soft voice,
talk to me at night.
Don't want you to worry baby,
'cause I know we can make everything allright.
Listen to my plea baby,
bring it home to me,
because I need your love so bad.

I got a long grey mare,
she won't let me ride.
I got a long grey mare,
she won't let me ride.
She makes me brush her in the morning,
put her to bed every night, yeah.
Long grey mare,

Long grey mare,

We used to ride so hard,

Long grey mare,

Long grey mare,

And when I dig you with my spur,

(Gary Moore)
You live your life in a state of confusion,
never finding your way.
You've had the breaks,
but you're so disillusioned.
You only live for today.
You never stop for a red light,
you never even try.
You're on the wrong side of midnight.
Too fast to live, but too young to die.
Keep on rockin' and rollin'.
Keep on singing the blues.
Keep on rockin' and rollin'.
You've got nothing to lose.
You say that you've got a hot reputation.
You never built it on trust.
I say you're part of a lost generation.
You got left in the dust.
You never stop for a red light,
you never even try.
You're on the wrong side of midnight.
Too fast to live, but too young to die.
Keep on rockin' and rollin'.
Keep on singing the blues.
Keep on rockin' and rollin'.
You've got nothing to lose.

When I first met you baby,
I didn't even know your name.
When I first met you baby,
I didn't even know your name.
Oh, I was feelin' low on the ground.
Bad luck and evil women were to blame.
I never realized
how sweet and kind one woman can be.
I never realized, people,
how sweet and kind a woman can be.
Oh, but when I looked in your eyes,
I knew true love had come to me.
Yeah.
Take my hand,
hold it tight and don't let go.
Take my hand, take my hand,
hold it tight and don't let go.
'Cause our love is like a merry-go-round,
forever and ever round it goes.
(P.A. Greenbaum/C.G. Adams)
Will you love me tomorrow
like you say you love me now?
Will you love me tomorrow
like you say you love me now?
When the flames of our flesh have stopped burning,
and the fire of our love has gone out.
Too many times I've given too much,
now give me your love in return.
Too many times I've given too much,
now give me your love in return.
Give me your mind and your heart,
but please don't leave me with a love that burns.
Please don't use me as your fool,
'cause my heart can't stand another lie.
Oh, don't use me as your fool,
'cause my heart just can't stand another lie.
And if you can't love me tomorrow,
please leave me alone in my room to cry.
(Gary Moore)
Can't seem to find no way out of here,
but maybe I'm not even trying.
Every day one thing becomes so clear,
there is no point in denying.
That I'm lost in your love,
I'm so lost in your love.
It's been this way such a long, long time,
oh, ever since I can remember.
From that sweet moment when you were mine,
on that cold night in November.
I've been lost in your love,
I'm lost in your love.
I'm so lost in your love,
so lost in your love.
Can't seem to find no way out of here,
but maybe I'm not even trying.
Every day one thing becomes so clear,
there is no point in denying.
That I'm lost in your love,
so lost in your love.
I'm so lost in your love.
I'm so lost in your love.
I'm lost.
I'm lost.
I'm lost.
I'm lost.
I'm so lost.
I'm so lost.
I'm lost.
I'm so lost inside your love,
inside your love,
inside your love.
(P.A. Greenbaum)
Oh, I got a feelin'
blues gonna be my only way.
Oh, I got a feelin'
blues gonna be my only way.
'Cause when you're lookin' for somebody,
lookin' for somebody.
Tell me woman,
how do you see a man like me?
Tell me woman,
how do you see a man like me?
You look so nice.
You feel so warm.
Oh, I got a feelin'
blues gonna be my only way.
'Cause I got a feelin', people,
blues gonna be my only way.
'Cause when you're lookin' for somebody,

(Gary Moore)
I don't know what's wrong with you.
Baby, baby, what you tryin' to do.
Well, I gave you my love,
but that wasn't good enough for you.
I thought we had a love so strong.
And baby, baby, how you proved me wrong.
Well, I'm so confused,
I don't know what I'm supposed to do.
And it's just another lonely night (lonely night),
I'm all by myself.
It's just another lonely night (lonely night),
you're with someone else when you should be with me.
Life was so easy when our love was new.
But times change, and I'm so blue.
Well, you gave me your love,
then you turned around and said we're through.
I crawled for miles on my hands and knees
just to hear you whisper "Baby, please."
I need you so bad,
I'd do anything to be with you.
But it's just another lonely night (lonely night),
I'm all by myself.
It's just another lonely night (lonely night),
you're with someone else.
Oh, just another lonely night.
Oh, just another lonely night.
Oh, just another lonely night.
Oh, just another lonely night.
And it's just another lonely night,
I'm all by myself.
It's just another lonely night,
you're with someone else.
It's just another lonely night (lonely night),
I'm all by myself.
It's just another lonely night (lonely night),
you're with someone else.
Just another lonely night (lonely night),
all by myself.
Just another lonely night (lonely night),
you're with someone else.
(Gary Moore)
In every heart a story is told.
There's a way you can believe in forever.
In every life the story unfolds,
like a mystery for you to see
and tear away the mask.
Hold on to your dreams,
learn how to fly like angels.
Hold on to your dreams,
soaring above, wings of love.
In every tear a lesson to learn.
There's a way you can believe in forever.
Time never hears the reasons we give.
It just marches on until it's gone,
forever and a day.
Hold on to your dreams,
learn how to fly like angels.
Hold on to your dreams,
soaring above, wings of love.
Hold on to your dreams,
learn how to fly like angels.
Hold on to your dreams,
soaring above, wings of love.
Hold on to your dreams,
learn how to fly like angels.
Soaring high above,
wings made from love.
(Gary Moore)
The woman I love doesn't want me.
I'm having to face my worst fears.
She's promised her heart to another.
Feel like I'm drowning in tears.
She is the one I have lived for.
I've waited for so many years.
Now she is leaving me lonely.
Feel like I'm drowning in tears.
I was the one who waited endlessly,
sending you kisses from the stars.
I was the one who fought relentlessly,
wishing you hadn't gone so far.
The woman I love doesn't want me.
I'm having to face my worst fears.
She's promised her heart to another.
Feel like I'm drowning in tears.
Feel like I'm drowning in tears.
(Gary Moore)
I'm falling for your sweet face,
then lonely I'll be gone.
Don't know what I'll be doin',
somehow I think it's wrong.
Been hosting like a gangster,
just tryin' to hide the clues.
But the way I feel, I can't believe it,
I didn't even make a move.
I just wanna be kidnapped,
tied and gagged and bound to the chair,
if you dare.
I'm just kidnapped,
'cause you're stealing my love
and I swear you don't care.
It must be a conspiracy
your fiendish mind has planned.
No ransom note, no blackmail letter,
no evidence at hand.
I can try to run, I can try to hide,
I can pass right out, commit suicide.
But baby, it's no use for me,
you won't be denied.
I just wanna be kidnapped,
tied and gagged and bound to the chair,
if you dare.
I'm just kidnapped,
'cause you're stealing my love
and I swear you don't care.
It's easy in this place and time,
so easy to get trapped.
With a woman like you and a gift like that,
I just wanna be kidnapped, kidnapped, kidnapped.
It's easy in this place and time
so easy to get trapped.
With a woman like you and a gift like that
I just wanna be kidnapped,
tied and gagged and bound to the chair,
if you dare.
I'm just kidnapped,
'cause you're stealing my love
and I swear you don't care.
I'm just kidnapped,
tied and gagged and bound to the chair,
if you dare.
I'm just kidnapped,
'cause you're stealing my love
and I swear you don't care.
I'm just kidnapped,
tied and gagged and bound to the chair,
if you dare.
I'm just kidnapped,
'cause you're stealing my love
and I swear you don't care.
I'm just kidnapped.
And every time I see your face (tied and gagged and bound to the chair),
I don't know what do do (if you dare).
I'm just kidnapped,
You've got to hold me for ransom ('cause you're stealing my love),
looks like the plan is due (and I swear you don't care).
I'm just kidnapped.
Kidnapped, kidnapped, kidnapped (tied and gagged and bound to the chair),
kidnapped, kidnapped, kidnapped (if you dare).
I'm just kidnapped (I'm just kidnapped),
'cause you're stealing my love
and I swear you don't care.
The time has come to talk about tomorrow.
You should be a careful one tomorrow.
I heard them on the radio.
I saw them on the video.
I don't think I can take much more.
Led clones, Led clones.
You've stolen from the houses of the holy.
You've rolled into the kingdom of the sain.
I heard you on the radio.
I saw those crummy videos.
I don't think I can take no more.
Led clones, Led clones.
Got to get it on,
From the still of the night.
But you're gettin' it wrong,
You know it ain't right.
Ooh, yeah.
Ooh, yeah.

(P.A. Greenbaum)
My baby's gone and left me cryin' by myself.
My baby's gone and left me cryin' by myself.
I loved another woman, now I lost my best gal.
She was a real good woman, never done me no harm.
Was a real good woman, never done me no harm.
I loved another woman, now she's up and she's gone.
Well, come back baby, I won't do you no wrong.

(P.A. Greenbaum)
I ain't never missed a woman
anytime or anyhow.
Said I ain't never missed a woman
anytime or anyhow.
I said, I ain't never missed nobody
just like the way I miss my baby now.
If you could see my woman,
you'd know why no one else can take her place.
If you could see my woman, people,
you'd realize why no one else can take her place.
You'd know just what I'm talking 'bout,
if you could see my baby's sweet, sweet face.
That's why I ain't never missed a woman
anytime or any place.
No, I ain't never ever missed a woman
anytime or any place.
When I say I ain't never missed nobody,
I mean I ain't never missed nobody
like I miss my baby now, yeah.
(Gary Moore)
Sometimes I feel so lonely.
Sometimes I feel so lost.
Sometimes there seems so many
bridges to be crossed.
(But then I look at you,)
and I realize.
(But then I look at you,)
that it's all worth while.
Sometimes I feel I'm losin'.
Sometimes I just can't win.
Sometimes I feel like cryin'
and I just hold it in.
(But then I look at you,)
look at you and I realize.
(When I look at you,)
that it's all worth while.
When I look into your eyes,
I see the signs of the love you have inside.
It's hard to hide.
You're my life, you're my reason for living.
It's so right, all this love you've been giving.
Day and night, I'm always with you.
And it's all worth while.
Sometimes I feel I'm losin'.
Sometimes I just can't win.
Sometimes I feel like cryin'
and I just hold it in.
(But then I look at you,)
I look at you and I realize.
I realize.
(When I look at you,)
when I look at you,
that it's all worth while,
all worth while.
(But then I look at you,)
I look at you and I realize.
I realize.
(When I look at you,)
open my eyes,
that it's all worth while.
(Gary Moore)
I can still remember,
like it was yesterday,
the pain inside my heart
as you turned to walk away.
I don't know and I don't care
what the people say.
I don't know and I don't care,
I love you anyway.
For I have found my love in you.
And I have found a love so true.
I can still remember,
like it was just the other day.
I could have done without those stories
while you're so far away.
I don't know, I don't care
what my friends all say.
I don't know and I don't care,
I love you anyway.
For I have found my love in you.
And I have found a love so true.
Ooh, that first sweet night together.
I will remember it forever.
I put my heart on the line.
Though I knew I was wrong,
I would keep holding on.
Do you still remember
all those times ago?
When you lay like a flame in my arms,
and I could never let you go.
For I have found my love in you.
And I have found a love so true.
Yes, I have found my love in you.
And I have found a love so true.
I don't know and I don't care.
Ooh, that first sweet night together.
I don't know, I don't care.

They still remember the day when Little Boy dropped from his womb.
They still remember how their homes became their children's tombs.
Their suffer mourn each soul who died that August morning
Why don't we listen, why don't we heed the warning?
Hiroshima, the place where innocence was burned.
Hiroshima, the memory makes my stomach turn.
Hiroshima, the world should truly feel the shame.
Hiroshima, the place where facing death became the way of life.
So many children have been born who cannot read or write.
They cannot speak, they cannot hear and some have lost their sight.
Adults with infant minds don't know the reason why,
for they were in their mothers' wombs when death fell from the sky.
Hiroshima, the place where innocence was burned.
Hiroshima, the memory makes my stomach turn.
Hiroshima, the world should truly feel the shame.
Hiroshima, the place where facing death became the way of life.
The rest of us should learn a lesson from their sorrow,
so we can stop it all happening tomorrow.
Hiroshima, the place where innocence was burned.
Hiroshima, the memory makes my stomach turn.
Hiroshima, the world should truly feel the shame.
Hiroshima, the rest of us must take the blame.

nothing but sorrow waiting for you.
Don't look for any mysteries,
it's only history we're passing through.
The threat from the east
growing stronger with each passing hour.
All systems are failing,
and talks with the west have turned sour.
The leaders are waiting for blood on their hands,
playing with weapons they don't understand.
Could it be this time we'll see the end of the world?
Each day brings a new danger,
love is a stranger we used to know.
Outside, the sun goes on rising.
But we're realizing there's not long to go.
The storm clouds are forming,
take heed of the warning to come.
The Kremlin has told every nation
there's no place to run.
The leaders are waiting for blood on their hands,
playing with weapons they don't understand.
Could it be this time we'll see the end of the world?

She broke my heart, make no mistake.
All I did was give.
And all she did was take.
But don't you know,
where she goes,
the cold wind blows.
The cold wind blows.
I ain't gonna cry no more.
I ain't gonna cry no more.
I ain't gonna cry no more.
I ain't gonna cry no more.
Ain't gonna cry no more,
cry no more.
Gonna cry no more.
Ain't gonna cry no more.
(Gary Moore)
I'm a man with something to say.
I don't need nobody to show me the way.
I don't care if it's day or if it's night.
There ain't nobody who's gonna teach me wrong from right.
'Cause every hungry woman
has tried to make a fool out of me.
Every hungry woman,
stick around and baby you'll see.
I'm cold hearted.
I'm so cold hearted.
I'm a man with a mind of my own.
I don't need nobody, I'm happy all alone.
I don't care if it's day or if it's night.
There ain't nobody who's gonna teach me wrong from right.
'Cause every hungry woman
has tried to make a fool out of me.
Every hungry woman,
stick around and baby you'll see.
I'm cold hearted.
I'm so cold hearted.
I'm cold hearted.
I'm so cold hearted.
Let me show you why they call me cold hearted, baby.
Every hungry woman
has tried to make a fool out of me.
Every hungry woman,
stick around and baby you'll see.
I'm cold hearted.
I'm so cold hearted.
I'm cold hearted.
I'm so cold hearted.
Baby, I tell you I've got a heart that's made of stone.
(Gary Moore)
It was a cold black night,
and the rain was falling down.
It was a cold black night,
and the rain was falling down.
It was a cold black night,
the night that my baby left town.
It was the darkest day,
and the wind was howlin' through.
It was the darkest day,
and the wind came howlin' through.
It was the darkest day,
day my baby said we're through.
Oh, come back baby,
never did you no wrong.
Come back baby,
I never did you no wrong.
I've been sleeping in the ground
ever since your love been gone.
It was a cold black night,
and the rain was falling down.
It was a cold black night,
and the rain was falling down.
It was a cold black night,
the night my baby left town.
Yeah.
It was the darkest day,

It was a cold black night.
It was a cold black night,
the night my baby left town.
It was a cold black night.
(Gary Moore)
So many times you tried to take the best of me.
So many times, now you're gonna take the rest of me.
Better look at what you're doing before it's too late.
It's a fine line you're treadin' between love and hate.
There'll be a cold day in hell
before I'm coming back to you.
So many times you tried to play a dead end game.
Yes, you did.
I tried to tell you, but you'd never wanna take the blame.
Now you've pushed me to the limit, and I can't take no more.
You'd better take one last look before I'm out the door.
There'll be a cold day in hell
before I'm coming back to you.
You never listened when I told you
that you were way out of line.
Too busy talkin' to listen,
accusing me of telling lies.
So many times you tried to get the best of me.
Yes, you did.
So many times, but now you're gonna take the rest of me.
Well, it's too late for sorry and it's too late for tears.
Better take one last look before I disappear.
There'll be a cold day in hell
before I'm coming back to you.
There'll be a cold day in hell
before I'm coming back to you.
There'll be a cold day in hell
before I'm coming back to you.
Yeah!
(Gary Moore)
The pink crucifix with the ivory Jesus I wanted.
The man with the blood on his hands, as I ran from the river.
Kissing my cousin, before they took her to the graveyard.
Trembling at night from the violence I heard from my bedroom.
These are my memories.
These are my memories,
coming home.
Called up at school, for my hand wasn't there to say "present".
Running the gauntlet outside the Club Rado at dawn.
Rory and me, without a spare string between us.
Catching the last bus halfway through I'm So Glad.
These are my memories.
These are my memories,
coming home.
Philip and me and 'the Brush' ridin' 'round in a Transit.
The Bailey, the Strangely's, the smoke and the speed and the acid.
I lost my virginity to a Tipperary woman.
A heart that was broken, but it wasn't the first or the last time.
These are my memories.
These are my memories,
coming home.
Under the wings of the man they called Green, I found freedom.
Three children, one wife, a twist of the knife and a scandal.
Divorce, separation, some kind of salvation came lately.
So many have gone, but I know it's just business as usual.
Oh, these are my memories.
These are my memories.
These are my memories.
These are my memories.
These are my memories.
These are my memories,
coming home.
These memories keep coming back.
Those memories keep coming back.
All those years ago.
All those years ago.
These are my memories.
These are my memories.
These are my memories.
(Gary Moore)
Well, I'm standin' at the station,
a suitcase in my hand.
I'm standin' at the station,
a suitcase in my hand.
But that train won't bring my baby back.
No, that train won't bring my baby back.
Well, she left me here this morning
to meet another man.
She left me here this morning

a suitcase in my hand.
And that train won't bring my baby back.
Yeah, that train won't bring my baby back.
Bring her home, yeah.
Well, I'm standin' at the station,
a suitcase in my hand.
Lord, I'm standin' at the station,
a suitcase in my hand.
But that train won't bring my baby back.
No, that train won't bring my baby back, yeah.
Bring her home, yeah.
Move along,

(Gary Moore)
Hey you with the guitar.
Where did you play last night?
I do believe it was in Memphis,
but I can't remember right now.
'Cause I been foul politicin'
and I acted in fear to be.
I had to get up five this morning
with them bells playing in my head.
Sometimes I work so hard,
I'm gonna play my fingers to the bone.
Well, I can boogie, boogie,
boogie on my way back home.
Well, I've been workin' every night
for the pastes buy meats and needs.
I'm gonna finish up tomorrow night
and turn myself a plane back east.
I'm gonna do my work
so I can help my pain and rest.
Well, I'll be back here someday soon
hope I can give my best.
Sometimes I work so hard,
I'm gonna play my fingers to the bone.
And now I can boogie, boogie,
boogie on my way back home.
Yeah.
Well, my axe is gettin' rusty
and an old slow demon I seem to be.
The throat is gettin' dusty,
before it's gone that I had thrifty hands.
Well, I've been up for heart breakin'
and I had to keep my men to pay.
I had to catch a plane this morning
with them bells ringing in my head.
Sometimes I work so hard,
I'm gonna, gonna play my fingers to the bone, hooh.
Well, now I can boogie, boogie,
boogie on my way back home.
Said I learned to boogie, boogie,
boogie on my way back home.
I can boogie, boogie,
boogie on my way back home.
(Willie Dee/Tony Newton/... Hitchings)
Don't you break me,
leave me shakin' like a leaf on a tree.
I can't face it,
I can't make you fall in love in me.
Late at night when I retire,
baby, your eyes set me on fire.
I know I never felt much higher
because of your love.
Because of your love.
It's no wonder,
girl, with a single kiss you can make me freeze.
Please don't tease me,
say that you need me, I'm all on my knees.
You know you made me sacrifice
everything I knew was right.
Now I can't even sleep at night
because of your love.
Because of your love.
Please, won't you set me free,
I'm riding on stormy sea.
I'm all broke up inside
from all the tears I've cried.
I'm in love.
Please, won't you set me free,
I'm riding on stormy sea.
I'm all broke up inside
from all the tears I've cried.
Please, won't you set me free,
your love's got a hold on me.
Because of your love.
I need your lovin'.
I need your lovin', need your lovin'.
(Gary Moore)

Bad news ain't no use.
So keep your thoughts to yourself.
You're a sad excuse, subject for abuse.
Gotta throw you back up on the shelf.
I never lied, I never tried,
I gave my love to your wholesale.
And when the times start looking good,
it never seems to fail.
You bring me bad news.
I'm often rude, loving you.
This time you made your last mistake.
I cut loose from running news.
They strangle every breath I take.

(Otis Rush)
All your lovin' is lovin'.
All your kissin' is kissin'.
All your lovin' is lovin'.
All your kissin' is kissin'.
Before I met you baby,
I never knew what I was missin'.
All your lovin' pretty baby,

(Gary Moore)
Listen to me woman,
I just think it's a sin.
I know you hear me knockin',
but you won't let me in.
Might be fine for you
just to keep me hangin' round.
But if you don't open up this door,
I'm gonna kick it down.
Sometimes I feel like
I'm back on the streets again.
Sometimes I feel like
there's nowhere to go.
Sometimes I feel like
I'm back on the streets again.
Listen,
you've been telling me to short
for much too long.
But now I'm gonna put you back
where you belong.
Might be fine for you
just to keep me hangin' round.
But if you don't open up this door,
I'm gonna kick it down.
Sometimes I feel like
I'm back on the streets again.
Sometimes I feel like
there's nowhere to go.
Sometimes I feel like
I'm back on the streets again.
Sometimes it's the only place that I know.
That I know.
Sometimes I feel like
I'm back on the streets again.
Sometimes I feel like
there's no place to go.
Sometimes I feel like
I'm back on the streets again.
Sometimes it's the only place that I know.
Sometimes I feel like
I'm back on the streets again.
Sometimes I feel like
there's no place to go.
Sometimes I feel like
I'm back on the streets again.
Sometimes it's the only place that I know.
Only place that I know, yeah.
(Gary Moore)
All of our destinies
written within us.
No more of falling for
the world's biggest lie.
Are you so jealous of the wind and her freedom?
Nothing can stop you now.
Live in your dreams.
Are we afraid of tomorrow?
Are we afraid of tomorrow?
Crossing the wilderness,
finding the treasure.
Buried within yourself
all you desire.
Soul of the world can see
all you are feeling.
Heeding the wise man's words,
all things are one.
Are we afraid of tomorrow?
Are we afraid of tomorrow?
Mmah, ah.
All of our destinies
written within us.
No more of falling for
the world's biggest lie.
Are you still jealous of the wind and her freedom?
Nothing can stop you now,
so live in your dreams.
Are we afraid of tomorrow?
Are we afraid of tomorrow?
Afraid of tomorrow.
Afraid of tomorrow.
Oh, afraid.
Oh, oh afraid.
Oh, afraid.
Take off your hat, kick off your shoes
You know you ain't goin' anywhere
Spend all your time singin' your blues
You know you ain't goin' anywhere
You've always been a good friend of mine
But you always say farewell
And the only time that you're satisfied
Is with your feet in the wishing well, in the wishing well
Throw down your gun, you might shoot yourself
Or is that what you're tryin' to do?
Put up a fight you believe to be right
And one day the sun will shine through
You've always got somethin' to hide
Somethin' you just can't tell
And the only time that you're satisfied
Is with your feet in the wishing well, in the wishing well
But I know what you're wishing for
Love in a peaceful world
Love in a peaceful world
Love in a peaceful world
Hmm, hmm, huh
You've always been a good friend of mine
But you always say farewell
The only time that you're satisfied
Is with your feet in the wishing well
In the wishing well, in the wishing well
Everybody's got a dream
And they take it to the wishing well
Don't care how long you go, I don't care how long you stay
It's good kind treatment bring you home someday
Someday baby, you ain't gonna trouble poor me anymore
Now you keep on bettin' that the dice won't pass
Well I know, and I know, whoa, oh you're livin' too fast
Someday baby, you ain't gonna trouble poor me anymore
Yeah, I'll tell everybody in my neighborhood
You're a kind little woman but you don't do me no good
But someday baby, you ain't gonna trouble poor me anymore
I know you're leaving, if you call that gone
Oh without my lovin' yeah, oh, you can't stay long
But someday baby, you ain't gonna trouble poor me anymore
Good bye baby, yeah well take my hand
I don't want no woman no, who can't have no man
But someday baby, you ain't gonna trouble poor me anymore
If you could see inside my heart
You’d see a loneliness right from the start
Feels like love, feeling love, has passed me by
These days I need no reason to cry
If you could feel the way I feel
You’d know that every word I sing is real
Seems like love, feeling love, can pass you by
These days I need no reason to cry
I always knew I would have to let you go
The years go by and the only thing I know
Is that I love you still
If I could see your face today
When all the emptiness be far away
All the loneliness would pass me by
I remember the old country
They call the emerald land
And I remember my home town
Before the wars began
Now we're riding on a sea of rage
The victims you have seen
You'll never hear them sing again
The forty shades of green
We're goin' back to the wild frontier
Back to the wild frontier, it's calling
Back to the wild frontier
We're goin' back, back to the wild frontier
I remember my city streets
Before the soldiers came
Now armored cars and barricades
Remind us of our shame
We are drowning in a sea of blood
The victims you have seen
Never more to sing again
The forty shades of green
We're goin' back to the wild frontier
Back to the wild frontier, it's calling
Back to the wild frontier
Back to the wild frontier, it's calling
Those are the days I will remember
Those are the days I most recall
We count the cost of those we lost
And pray it's not in vain
The bitter tears of all those years
I hope we live to see those days again
Now we're riding on a sea of rage
The victims you have seen
You'll never hear us sing again
The forty shades of green
And I remember a friend of mine
So sad now that he's gone
They tell me I'll forget
As time goes on
We're goin' back to the wild frontier
Back to the wild frontier, it's calling
Back to the wild frontier, we're goin' back
Back to the wild frontier
(Can you hear it callin'?)
Back to the wild frontier
(Can you hear it callin', callin?)
Back to the wild frontier
Those forty shades of green are calling me back home
Ooh, we're goin' back, back to the wild frontier
Yeah
I laid down last night, too tired to wake
I had a chill this mornin', too tired to shake
I got a good poker hand, too tired to win
I can hear my baby knockin', too tired to let her in
I'm tired
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm tired, woo
Too tired
Too tired for anythin'
I'm too tired to walk
Too tired to run
I can hear my baby callin'
Too tired, too tired
I'm tired
Yes, I'm tired
I'm tired
Too tired for anythin'
Take over Albert
I'm too tired for this
I'm tired of prosperity
I'm tired of luck
I'm sittin' on a pin
I'm too tired to get up
I'm tired
I declare I'm tired
I'm too tired
Too tired for anythin'
Oh, Albert I'm tired
You better take over Albert
They looked out from the fortress on the hill
There came a single warrior returning from the kill
The spoils of war hung from his horses mane
The bloody heads of enemies that he had freshly slayed
They saw the face, the eyes so sullen
Could only be the young Cuchullain
Thunder rising, thunder rising
Thunder rising early in the morning
Cities burning, the world keeps turning
Thunder rising early in the morning
The son of Lugh MacEithleen knew no fear
For just one blow at any foe to tell his end was near
So many tried to mock this Celtic son
They taunted and they teased him till he slayed them one by one
And so they came, and so they've fallen
At the hands of young Cuchullain
Thunder rising, thunder rising
Thunder rising early in the morning
Cities burning, the world keeps turning
Thunder rising early in the morning
Long ago, the legend has it
How the mighty Ulster men
Battled with the King Of Connacht
Fighting to the bitter end
No one knew what foolish reason
Caused this skirmish to begin
Was it treachery or treason
Or just the idle threats of drunken men?
Thunder rising, thunder rising
Thunder rising early in the morning
Cities burning, the world keeps turning
Thunder rising early in the morning
Thunder rising, thunder rising
Thunder rising early in the morning
Young men are dying, the widows are crying
I saw you standing at the corner of the street,
You look so fine.
I don't care what it is your sellin',
I wanna be the next in line, aough.
You're dressed to kill,
You look good enough to eat.
I'm telling you,
There's just one thing you can't beat.
This thing called love.
This thing called love.
Aough.
That long, blond hair, those eyes of blue,
Those ruby lips and legs so long, baby.
You've got the goods,
You're holdin' big time.
There's no way you can go wrong.
You knock 'em dead,
When you're walking down the street.
I'm telling you,
There's just one thing you can't beat.
This thing called love, woh.
This thing called love.
This thing called love.
This thing called love.
Lookin' for a love on a summer's night.
I've got you lined up in my sights.
I've been looking for a love since the break of dawn.
Hey baby, come on!
Yeah!
This thing called love.
This thing called love.
I've been looking for a love on a summer's night.
I'm loaded up, you're in my sights.
Lookin' for a love since the break of day.
Hey baby, what you say?
Ooh, yeah!
This thing called love.
This thing called love.
This thing called love.
This thing called love.
You wrestle with your conscience
To free your better self
But did you think for one moment
You could be someone else
Between a rock and a hard place
Is where you seem to be
You've been caught in a trap
Between the devil and the deep blue sea
All those nights so lonely
All the tears that you cry
You can't hide from the hurt inside
The hurt inside
You're in a situation
Pray this time it will pass
But it feels like you're walkin'
Over miles and miles of broken glass
Painted into a corner
Where the sun never shines
Somebody's turned on the spotlight
You forgot to learn your lines
In the place you once called your heart
There's a wound that's open wide
You can't hide from the hurt inside
The hurt inside
When you're thinking 'bout the hard times
Everyone's been through
But it won't make no difference
Seeing things the way you do
In this blue condition
You must search for the light
Don't believe them when they tell you
You can't hold back the night
Between a rock and a hard place
Is where you'll always be
Caught in a trap
Between the devil and the deep blue sea
So many words unspoken
So many times you never tried
You can't hide from the hurt inside
The hurt inside
No, you can't hide from the hurt inside
The hurt inside
There's one thing you can't hide
It's the hurt inside
I know the reason
You turn your back
On things that you don't wanna hear
I know this feelin'
I get from you
When you try to act so sincere
But I don't know
What's making you behave this way
I'm gonna go
You never hear a word I say
You better learn to
Take a little time
To show me that you care for me
Take a little time
To show me you're still there for me
I know the danger
You're holding all the cards
Because you think I'll wait
You're like a stranger
You better show your hand
Before it gets too late
But I don't know
What's making you behave this way
I'm gonna go
I might as well just walk away
If you don't learn to
Take a little time
To show me that you care for me
You gotta take a little time
To show me you're still there for me
You better take a little time
To show me what's been going on
It's been like this for much too long
Take a little time
Don't hand me all these lines
My eyes are open wide now
Don't give me all your lies
I'm gettin' much too wise for you
Take a little time
Yeah
But I don't know
What's making you behave this way
You never hear a word I say
I might as well just walk away
If you don't learn to
Take a little time
To show me that you care for me
You better take a little time
To show me you're still there for me
You gotta take a little time
To show me what's been going on
It's been like this for much too long
Take a little time
You gotta take a little time
I'm tellin' you
You gotta take a little
Take a little time
Take a little time
Take a little
Take a little time
You gotta take a little
Take a little
You gotta take a little
Take a little time
I'm tellin' you
Take a little
Take a little time
Take a little
My baby she's left me
My baby she's gone
My sweet little angel
Spread her wings and flown
I think of a reason
For going on
From this day, I will play, the blues
She said it was over
This time it's the end
Bad luck and trouble
Gonna be my only friend
I still can't believe it
After all we've been through
Everyday, I will play, the blues
Everybody, knows what the blues is all about
It's the pain you can't live with
It's the woman you can't live without
She came from Chicago
She read me the news
In the headlines, was a story, of the blues
They say a broken heart
Can always mend
That time is the healer
The sadness will end
Well I've done so much crying
When will I laugh again
Till that day, I will play, the blues
Everybody knows what the blues is all about
It's the pain you can't live with
It's the woman you can't live without
Could have cried me a river
When they told me the news
Call it stormy Monday
But Tuesday's just as bad
Call it stormy Monday
Tuesday's just as bad
Wednesday is worse
And Thursday's all so sad
The eagle flies on Friday
Saturday, I go out to play
Eagle flies on Friday
Saturday, I go out to play
Sunday, I go to church
I get down on my knees and pray
Lord have mercy
Lord have mercy, mercy on me
Lord have mercy
Lord have mercy, mercy on me
Oh, I'm crazy about my baby
Please send her home to me
Yeah, yeah
Lord have mercy
Lord have mercy, mercy on me
Yeah, Lord have mercy
Lord have mercy on me
Well, I'm crazy about my baby
I think I’ll fall to pieces
If I don’t find something else to do
This sadness, it never ceases
Oh, I’m still in love with you
And my head, it keeps on reeling
It's got me in a crazy spin
Oh darling, darling, darling, darling, darling
Is this the end
I’m still in love with you
You know some people out there are saying
Time has its way of healing
It can dry all the tears from your eyes
Oh but darling they don’t tell you about this empty feeling
You know I can’t disguise it
After all that we’ve been through
I try my best but it’s no use
Ooh, I’m gonna keep on loving you
Is this the end
I’m still in love with you
And now that it’s all over
Woman, there’s something I think you should know
And maybe cos my baby, she had a baby by me
She might think it over one more time before she goes
Call on me baby
If there’s anything I could do for you
Call on me baby
Help me see it through
Look around across the nation.
Another league of morons marching,
Banners in hand.
Looking for another scapegoat,
Try to take away the things they don't understand.
Somewhere in the darkness,
There's a voice that's crying to be heard.
You feel it deep inside you,
A voice that just won't be denied.
Speak for yourself.
Someone will hear you,
Someone will listen.
Speak for yourself.
Who knows, you might change your world.
They try to take away your freedom.
They try to tell you what you can
Or what you can't hear.
Don't let this moral suffocation
Make you turn out just like them,
Is that what they fear?
Somewhere in the darkest night,
A voice that's crying to be heard.
You hear it deep inside you now,
A voice that just won't be denied.
Speak for yourself.
Someone will hear you,
Hear what you're saying.
Speak for yourself.
Who knows, you might change your world.
They never listen to a word you say.
They always turn their backs and walk away.
Well, take a look at yourself now, baby.
Take a look at yourself.
Take a look at the things you should have done.
It's up to you.
Speak for yourself.
Someone will hear you,
Someone will listen.
Speak for yourself,
Someone will hear you,
Out in the darkness.
Speak for yourself.
Someone will hear you,
Someone will listen.
Speak for yourself.
Who knows, you might change your world.
You might change your world.
As I sit here and play my Spanish guitar
Underneath the stars
It passes the time away
Each note I play is a memory of Spain
The melodies they take me back there again
So as I sit here and play on my old Spanish guitar
Each note I play just sails away
But it brings me closer to that Spanish señorita
Oh, she’s so far away
As I sit here and play underneath the stars
It passes the time away
You say we're in love
Well I don't know how to tell you
It's not the way it seems
And you think you really love me,
And you're waiting for the earthquake
You've been feeling in your dreams
And though I might send you flowers
Enjoy your company
Even call you every day when we are grow
When all is said and done
All it is, is a simple pretty maids all in a row
I can give you up any time I want to
(Love is a drug but it won't take hold)
I can give you up any time I need to
(You make it hard, but I'm in control)
Sometimes I think
I was a fool to love you so
I'm at the point of no return
I might even to lose in a row
I might even to lose in a row
You're making me crazy
Till I don't know what I'm saying
It's coming out confused
And I don't really need you, no
You're just another heartache
I wish I could refuse
And though I might seem obsessive
'Cos I want you constantly
Don't go thinking
That it's something places to go
When all is said and done
All it is, is a simple pretty maids all in a row
'Cos I can give you up any time I want to
(Love is a drug but it won't take hold)
Yes, I can give you up any time I need to
(You make it hard, but I'm in control)
Sometimes I think
I was a fool to love you so
I'm at the point of no return
I might even to lose in a row
I might even to lose in a row
'Cos when all is said and done
All it is, is a simple pretty maids all in a row
When all is said and done
I wish it was a simple pretty maids all in a row
You're makin' me crazy
I was a fool
I remember Paris in ‘49
Champs Elyse’s, Sans Michelle and old Beaujolais wine
I recall that you were mine in those Parisienne days
Looking back at the photographs
Those summer days stepped outside cold and cast
Ooh, I could write you paragraphs
It doesn't matter if you're wrong or if you're right
It makes no difference if you're black or if you're white
All men are equal till the victory is won
No color or religion ever stopped a bullet from a gun
Out in the fields the fighting has begun
Out on the streets, they're falling one by one
Out from the skies a thousand more will die each day
Death is just a heartbeat away
It doesn't matter if you're left or to the right
Don't try to hide behind the cause for which you fight
There'll be no prisollers taken, well the day is done
No flag or uniform ever stopped a bullet from a gun
Out in the fields the fighting has begun
Out on the streets, they're falling one by one
Out from the skies a thousand more will die each day
Death is just a heartbeat away
There's no communication
No one to take the blame
The cries of every nation
Have fallen on deaf ears again
Out, out, out, out, out
Out in the fields, out in the fields
Out in the fields
They are falling one by one
No flag has ever stopped a bullet from a gun
Death is just a heartbeat away, a heartbeat away
Death is just a heartbeat away, a heartbeat away
The fighting has begun
They're falling one by one
A thousand more will die each day, out
She'll tear you up
She'll bring you down
She'll leave your heart
In the 'lost and found'
She's just waitin'
Waitin' till the sun goes down, yeah
Take it from me
You're not the only fool in town, yeah
She'll make you angry
She'll make you sad
She'll find a way
To make the good times bad
She's a woman
That kind of likes to fool around
Take it from me
You're not the only fool in town, no
There's somethin' about that woman
She tries to drag a good man down
Somethin' about that woman
Take it from me
You're not the only fool in town
No, you're not
Come on
Yeah
Somethin' about that woman
She tries to drag a good man down
Somethin' about that woman
Take it from me
You're not the only fool
She'll tear you up
She'll bring you down
She'll leave your heart
In the lost and found
She's just waitin'
She's waitin' till the sun goes down, yeah
Take it from me
You're not the only fool in town
You can take it from me
You're not the only fool in town
No, you're not
I said, take it from me
You're not the only fool in town, no
Take it from me
I’ve seen that look somewhere before
Your sorrow’s like an open door
You’ve been this way for much too long
Somebody must have done you wrong
But one day the sun will shine on you
Turn all your tears to laughter
One day your dreams may all come true
One day the sun will shine on you
I’ve seen that look so many times
I know the sadness in your eyes
Your life is like a wishing well
Where it goes, only time will tell
One day the sun will shine on you
Turn all your tears to laughter
One day your dreams may all come true
One day the sun will shine on
Say goodbye to the lonely nights
Say goodbye to the northern lights
Say goodbye to the cold north winds
Say goodbye to the autumn leaves
One day the sun will shine on you
Turn all your tears to laughter
One day your dreams may all come true
One day the sun will shine on you
One day the sun will shine on you
No, no, no
Out on the streets they're all living in fear
You can hear their hearts pound as the moment draws near
One push of a button is all it would take to dress the world in black
One fault in the system, a fatal mistake
And you'll never come back from a nuclear attack
The Russians are ready, the U.S. is armed
They try and tell us there's no cause for alarm
If you think you can live like a rat in a sewer
Might stand a chance to stay alive
No one can say, no one knows for sure
Just who will survive a nuclear attack
You ain't never coming back, no, from a nuclear attack
Oh, no no no no no, yeah oh
Oh, yeah, look out
Out on the streets they're all living in fear
You can feel their hearts pound as the moment draws near
You won't know what's hit you, it'll happen so fast
Won't be the time to even scream
You'll just be burned up by the heat of the blast
A thing of the past in a nuclear attack
Nuclear attack, you ain't never coming back
Ain't never coming back, no no no no
From a nuclear attack, oh
We used to stand on the corner of the street,
Watching the world go by.
Movin' on when the cops came along,
Looking 'em in the eye.
Young guys with stars in their eyes,
Trying to make ends meet.
Young guys with stars in their eyes,
Dancin' to the beat.
Running wild,
We were livin' on dreams.
Running wild,
Nothing's what it seems.
Running wild.
(Holy show - show - show)
The Alley Cats on a Saturday night,
A rumble without a warning.
Woodbines and a bottle of wine,
And no school in the morning.
Hot stuff, we acted so tough,
We knew how to take a heed.
Paying the dues by singing the blues,
And dancin' to the beat.
Running wild,
We were livin' on dreams.
Running wild,
Nothing's what it seems.
Running wild,
We were livin' on dreams.
Running wild,
Nothing's what it seems.
Just like an ocean in motion,
Sometimes you go too far.
Then just to drop in the ocean,
Crash and burn like a shooting star.
Young guys with stars in their eyes,
Just trying to make ends meet.
Young guys with stars in their eyes,
Dancin' to, dancin' to the beat.
Running wild,
We were livin' on dreams.
Running wild,
Nothing's what it seems.
Running wild,
We were livin' on dreams.
Running wild,
Nothing's what it seems.
Running wild,
We were livin' on dreams.
Running wild,
Nothing's what it seems.
Running wild,
We were livin' on dreams.
Running wild,
Outside the rain is falling
Inside it feels so cold
A view from a broken window
Faces that look so old
Every trick in the book you have tried
To make ends meet
Just remember those nights that you cried
There was nothing to do but lie awake and
Listen to your heartbeat
Listen to the rhythm of your soul
Listen to your heartbeat
Listen to the rhythm of your soul
Outside the rain is falling
Inside you feels so cold
A view from a broken window
Faces that have grown so old
Every trick in the book you have tried
To make ends meet
Just remember those nights that you cried
There was nothing to do but lie awake and
Listen your heartbeat
Listen to the rhythm of your soul
Listen to your heartbeat
Listen to the rhythm of your soul
Listen to your heartbeat
Listen to the rhythm of your soul
You thought the mourning served out years ago
There's no more records on the radio
No place to go
Every trick in the book you have tried
To make ends meet
Just remember the nights that you cried
There was nothing to do but lie awake and
Listen to your heartbeat
Listen to the rhythm of your soul
Listen to your heartbeat
Listen to the rhythm of your soul
Listen to your heartbeat
Listen to the rhythm of your soul
Listen to your heartbeat
Listen to the rhythm of your soul
Listen to your heartbeat
Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain
When I hear that wind blow
All across the Wicklow mountains
Is it you, I hear a calling?
Johnny boy, oh Johnny boy
When I look to the west
All across the river Shannon
I can still see you smiling
Johnny boy, oh Johnny boy
When the leaves have turned to brown
And winter is due
As I watch the sun go down
I'll think of you
When I hear that wind blow
All across the Wicklow mountains
Sure it's you, I'll hear a calling
I wish I could get through to you
Seems like you don’t want me to
But still I try
I know when you’re not feeling strong
Things for you are going wrong
But still I try
I remember the first time
That I looked into your eyes
I remember the first day
Of your life
You’re my flesh and blood
I knew it from the very first moment
You’re my flesh and blood
I knew it from the very first moment
I’ve seen the sadness in your eyes
I wish that I could paint your skies
A brighter blue
You build these walls around yourself
Protecting you so no-one else
Can get to you
You’re my flesh and blood
I knew it from the very first moment
You’re my flesh and blood
I knew it from the very first moment
You’re my flesh and blood
I knew it from the very first moment
You’re my flesh and blood
I knew it from the very first moment
You’re my flesh and blood
I knew it from the very first moment
You’re my flesh and blood
I knew it from the very first moment
My flesh and blood
Let's hear it for the fat boy
Let's hear it for the fat boy
Let's hear it for the fat boy
Let's hear it for the fat boy
Let's hear it for the fat boy
Let's hear it for the fat boy
Let's hear it for the fat boy
Let's hear it for the fat boy
Fat boy, fat boy
Fat boy, fat boy
Fat boy, fat boy
Fat boy, fat boy
Let's hear it for the fat boy
Fa-fa-fat, b-b-boy
Let's hear it for the fat boy
Let's hear it for the fat boy
Let's hear it for the fat boy
Let's hear it for the fat boy
Let's hear it for the fat boy
When I’m close to you I feel my heart beat
Telling me that you’re the one for me
Darling, I don’t understand the reason
I just know that this was meant to be
And when I look into your eyes I see it
Everything that I’ve been searching for
Darling, I don’t understand this feeling
I just know it’s growing more and more
Because I’m falling in love with you
It’s the easiest thing for me to do
Yes, I’m falling in love with you, it’s true
I lie awake at night and think about you
I wake up to another lonely day
I know you’ll never feel this way about me
No matter what I do or say
And I’m falling in love with you
It’s the easiest thing for me to do
Yes, I’m falling in love with you, with you
You say you’re not the one for me
I am just a dreamer
I’ve tried so hard to make you see
That someone like you can make my dreams come true
Because I’m falling in love with you
It’s the easiest thing for me to do
Yes, I’m falling in love with you
It’s the easiest thing for me to do
Falling, yes I’m falling
Falling, ooh, yes I’m falling in love with you
Falling, falling, I’m falling, I’m falling
Don't believe me if I tell you
Not a word of this is true
Don't believe me if I tell you
Especially if I tell you
That I'm in love with you
Don't believe me if I tell you
That I wrote this song for you
There just might be some
Other silly, pretty girl I'm singing it to
Don't believe a word
'Cause words are only spoken
And a heart is like a promise
Meant to be broken
Don't believe a word
'Cause words can tell lies
And lies are no comfort
When there's tears in your eyes
Don't believe me if I tell you
Not a word of this is true
Don't believe me if I tell you
Especially if I tell you that
I'm in love with you
Don't believe a word
Don't believe a word
Don't believe me, don't believe me
Not a single word
Don't believe me if I tell you
Not a word of this is true
Don't believe me if I tell you
Especially if I tell you
I'm in love with you
Don't believe me if I tell you
That I wrote this song for you
There just might be some
Other silly, pretty girl I'm singing it to
Don't believe a word
'Cause words are only spoken
And a heart is like a promise
Meant to be broken
Don't believe a word
'Cause words can tell lies
And lies are no comfort
When there's tears in your eyes
Don't believe me if I tell you
Not a word of this is true
Don't believe me if I tell you
Especially if I tell you that
I'm in love with you
Don't believe a word
Don't believe a word
Don't believe me
Don't believe me
Don't believe me
Sometimes he sees her walking by
He never looks her in the eye
She doesn't know, she doesn't care
What he is feeling
And as she turns to walk away
There is nothing he can say
She doesn't know, why should she care?
When he's alone, she's never there
To see him
Crying in the shadows
Of a love he used to know
But now it's all over
Crying in the shadows
Of someone he called his own
But now he's all alone again
Sometimes she sees him walking by
She never looks him in the eye
He doesn't know, he doesn't care
What she is feeling
And as he turns to walk away
There is nothing she can say
He doesn't know, why should he care?
When she's alone, he's never there
He leaves her
Crying in the shadows
Of a love she used to know
But now it's all over
Crying in the shadows
Of someone she called her own
But now she's all alone again
But he can see it in her eyes
Oh, she can feel it in her heart
Yes, they can feel it in their hearts
It's tearing them apart
Over and over again
Crying in the shadows
Of a love he used to know
But now it's all over
Crying in the shadows
Of someone she called her own
But now she's all alone
Crying in the shadows
Of a love they used to know
But now it's all over
Crying in the shadows
Of a love they used to know
But now they're all alone again
Crying in the shadows
Crying in the shadows of love
Crying in the shadows
Crying in the shadows of love
Crying in the shadows
Crying in the shadows of love
I was born up on the North side
Where the Lagan River flows
When I came across the border
I was following my nose
Dublin city '69
There could have been no better place
There was no better time
Through the thunder and the rain
The deepest blood of emeralds
Was running through my veins
Blood of emeralds
I was down and out on Skid Row
But I held on to my pride
The darkest son of Ireland
He was standin' by my side
We would sail the stormy seas
Never looking back
We were afraid of what we'd see
Through the thunder and the rain
The deepest blood of emeralds
Was running through our veins
Some of us will win and some of us will lose
The strong will survive
Some of us will fall
Some of us won't get out of here alive
Blood of emeralds
Blood of emeralds
I was angry, I was sad
Just thinking about the times we had
I felt so lost and lonely too
What could I say, what could I do
And after all, the time goes by
No one knows the reasons why
You lived each day like there was no tomorrow
You spent those years living on time you borrowed
And in your eyes, all I could see was sorrow
Some of us will win, some of us will lose
The strong will survive
Some of us will fall
Some of us won't get out of here alive
Blood of emeralds
Blood of emeralds
Blood of emeralds
(Blood of emeralds.)
The deepest blood of emeralds
Blood of emeralds
The deepest blood of emeralds
