When I'm feeling blue, all I have to do
Is take a look at you, then I'm not so blue
When you're close to me, I can feel your heart beat
I can hear you breathing in my ear
Wouldn't you agree, baby you and me, we've got a groovy kind of love
Any time you want to, you can turn me on to
Anything you want to, any time at all
When I kiss your lips, ooh I start to shiver
Can't control the quivering inside
Wouldn't you agree, baby you and me, we've got a groovy kind of love,
(Solo)
When I'm feeling blue, all I have to do
Is take a look at you, then I'm not so blue
When I'm in your arms, nothing seems to matter
My whole world could shatter, I don't care
Wouldn't you agree, baby you and me, we've got a groovy kind of love
We've got a groovy kind of love, we've got a groovy kind of love
Come stop your crying it will be all right
Just take my hand and hold it tight
I will protect you from all around you
I will be here don't you cry.
For one so small, you seem so strong
My arms will hold you, keep you safe and warm
This bond between us can't be broken
I will be here don't you cry
'Cause you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more
You'll be in my heart
No matter what they say
You'll be here in my heart always
Always
Why can't they understand the way they feel?
They just don't trust what they can't explain.
Although we're different, deep inside us,
We're not that diff'rent at all.
And you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more
Don't listen to them, 'cause what do they know?
We need each other, to help to hold.
They'll see in time. I know
'Cause ____________________ must be strong
I may not be with you, but you have to hold on
They'll see in time. I know
We'll show them together
'Cause you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more
You'll be in my heart
No matter what they say
You'll be here in my heart always
Always
Why can't it wait 'til morning?
We can talk about it then
'Cos I've had a drink too many
And my troubles, well I ain't got any
Why can't it wait 'til daylight?
Things will seem much clearer then
I'm tired and my eyes are weary
And I just want you lying here with me
So close your eyes
I'll make it oh, so nice
Well I don't wanna think about what we've said
And I don't wanna know why we hurt ourselves
'Cos I just wanna hold you so close to me
It'll take care of itself and I wanna sleep
So why can't it wait 'til next time?
'Cos that time may never come
Stay here with your arms around me
You're going nowhere without me
So close your eyes
I'll make it oh, so nice for you
My harbour lights are fading fast
soon they'll disappear
alone I sit in darkness
hoping someone might come near
though I wait, though I try
no one ever comes
and the feelings that I have flood over me
the river starts to run
We fly so close
we fly so close
sometimes we fly too close
Every place you run to, everywhere you turn
there are places that you know you should not go
but some bridges just won't burn
all my life, though I try
I cannot change the past
and the ghosts that come back to haunt you
make you realise that
We fly so close
we fly so close
sometimes we fly too close
we fly too close
My heart is racing much faster now
life passes before my eyes
something's I see, they make me smile
something's they make me cry
so I look, so I try to find
a lesson I can learn
the passing of time hasn't changed my mind
and the ghosts I know return
You know we fly so close
we fly so close
sometimes we fly too close
we fly too close
We fly so close, you and I sometimes
sometimes we fly so close
we'll never know how many times
we fly so close
This is your wake up call... young hearts be free
Get up, get on, get out about and shout it
Tell 'em all you're dressed and on your way
Oh there's absolutely no doubt about it
This is your wake up call
You're gonna miss it all
Am I the only one out there that's listening
Cos it's such a lovely noise that I can hear
Eyes are opening up to all around them
This is their wake up call
They're gonna miss it all
Can you feel what's happening here
Everything is changing all around you
It's in the air, electricity
Everybody, yes everybody's waking up
Good morning to you
You're not the only one out there who's running
But the man who's sitting next to you's asleep
So pick him up and shake him till he hears you
This is his wake up call
He's gonna miss it all
Can you feel what's happening here
Everything is changing all around you
It's in the air, electricity
Everybody, yes everybody's waking up
Good morning to you
Those who've done all they can do sleep easy
Those that turn away, they sleep alone
But there's no doubt about it absolutely
This is a wake up call
We 're gonna miss it all
This is your wake up call
This is your wake up call
This is your wake up call
You're gonna miss it
You're gonna miss it all

Every moment now the bond grows
grows stronger
Two worlds, one family
Trust your heart
Let fate decide
To guide those lives we see
Vocals: Phil Collins
Put your faith in what you most believe in
Two worlds, one family
Trust your heart
Let fate decide
To guide these lives
To guide these lives we see
Put your faith in what you most believe in
Two worlds, one family
Turn off your mind, relax and float downstream
It is not dying, It is not dying.
Lay down all thoughts, surrender to the void
It is shining, oh it is shining.
That you may see the meaning of within
It is beginning, oh it is beginning.
That love is all and love is ev'ryone
It is knowing, oh it is knowing.
And ignorance and hate may mourn the dead
It is believing, oh it is believing.
So play the game, existence to the end
Of the beginning, of the beginning.
Of the beginning, of the beginning...
Somewhere Over The Rainbow
Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high
There's a land that I dreamed of once in a lullaby
(Okay-)
I was lying awake last night, waiting for your call
But if the rumours are true, that won't bother you at all
I'm trying hard to understand
What it takes to be your man
Now I don't have to wonder anymore
Least you can do is say you're sorry
Least you can do is give me back my heart
Just give me back my heart
Seems living in hope was wrong those years I was away
Thinking your letters, I never received, had gone astray
You said you'd always be there for me
Like a fool I thought you'd be
Now I don't know what I was thinking at all
But the least you can do is say you're sorry girl
Least you can do is give me back my heart
I won't come around no more
You won't find me standing outside your door
Least you can do is tell me why, tell me why
The least you can do is say you're sorry girl
Least you can do is give me back my heart
I won't come around no more
You won't find me standing outside your door
But the least you can do is tell me why
I won't be your fool anymore
There's no need to be cruel anymore …no, no
Least you can do is say you're sorry girl
The least you can do is give me back my heart ….just give me back my heart

SOMEWHERE - West Side Story
There's a place for us, somewhere a place for us
Peace and quiet and open air wait for us somewhere
There's a time for us,
Someday a time for us
Time together with time to spare
Time to look, time to care
Someday, somewhere,
We'll find a new way of living
We'll find a way of forgiving
Somewhere.
There's a place for us
A time and place for us
Hold my hand and we're halfway there
Hold my hand and I'll take you there
Somehow, someday, somewhere.
This is just an instrumental Song
Drums and trumpets

The signs are getting clearer, clearer than you need
The writing's on the wall, for you to see
You never thought you'd ever get the taste
You never thought that it could be this good
Just tell me what you want and I'll find the key
Reach out and touch it's all yours.
If you hang in long enough, you'll do it
Just hang in long enough
You're down on the ground, or so you say
You'd sell the hole in your pocket, if you could find a way
Don't ask me how I know, you don't wanna hear
It's been a long hard road, and the end is getting near.
You never thought you'd ever get the chance
You never thought your break would come along
If you tell me what you want, I'll find the key
Just reach out and touch it's all yours
If you hang in long enough
You'll do it
Just hang in long enough
They always say
The best things in life are free
But you want to have everything
Well you're going to have to beg if you want it all.
So hang in long enough, you'll do it
Hang in long enough
They'll let you out, then pull you in
Playing hell with your emotions,
You'll feel like giving in.
So just hang in long enough
And you'll do it
Just hang in long enough
Repeat to fade
Instrumental music only, sorry :((

Come, stop your crying, it'd be all right
Just take my hand, hold it tight
I will protect you from all around you
I will be here, don't you cry
For one so small, you seem so strong
My arms will hold you, keep you safe and warm
This bond between us can't be broken
I will be here, don't you cry
'Cause you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on, now and forever more
You'll be in my heart
No matter what they say
You with the sad eyes
Don't be discouraged
Oh I realize
It's hard to take courage
In a world full of people
You can lose sight of it all
And the darkness, inside you
Can make you feel so small
But I see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful
Like a rainbow
Show me a smile then
Don't be unhappy, can't remember
When I last saw you laughing
If this world makes you crazy
And you've taken all you can bear
You call me up
Because you know I'll be there
And I'll see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful
Like a rainbow
So sad eyes
Discouraged now
Realize
When this world makes you crazy
And you've taken all you can bear
You call me up
Because you know I'll be there
And I'll see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors, true colors
Cos there's a shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors, true colors
True colors are beautiful
Come with me, I'll take you now
To a place that you fear for no reason why
Your heart has turned away from me
And I will make you understand
Everything will become clear to you
When you see things through another's eyes
Everything will become clear to you
Whatever's meant for you, you will find
Come with me, I'll take you there
To a place where you'll see
Everything you need to be the one you need to be
And all of those things that you feared
Will disappear from you in time
Everything will become clear to you
When you see things through another's eyes
Everything will become clear to you
We know you really only wanna hear
the things we like to say
But if I say to you
"please don't do it"
you do it anyway
Sometimes I know we gotta be cruel
be cruel to be kind
When I ask you what you see in me
you say our love is blind
(chorus)
Cause only you know and I know
the things we mean to say
Only you know and I know
the things we mean to say
Whenever I think I know you better
better than I know myself
I open up and give you everything
then you just say "OK, what else?"
And when I run away you always cry
you always over react
But I don't know if you
know how you really feel
But you better know before I get back
(chorus)
Just try to remember
now I'm the one you love
You told me, ooh try to remember
I'm the one you're always thinking of
You told me, please try to remember
Before I walk away
Remember it's not good enough
telling me the way it was yesterday
(instrumental)
(chorus 2x)
Only you know and I know...
One more night, one more night
I've been trying, oh so long to let you know
Let you know how I feel
And if I stumble, if I fall, just help me back
So I can make you see
Please give me one more night
Give me one more night
One more night
'Cause I can't wait forever
Give me just one more night
Ooh, just one more night
Oh, one more night
'Cause I can't wait forever
I've been sitting here so long, wasting time
Just staring at the phone
And I was wondering should I call you
Then I thought, maybe you're not alone
Please give me one more night
Give me just one more night
Oh, one more night
'Cause I can't wait forever
Please give me just one more night
Ooh, just one more night
Oh, one more night
'Cause I can't wait forever
Give me one more night
Give me just one more night
Ooh, one more night
'Cause I can't wait forever
Like a river to the sea
I will always be with you
And if you sail away
I will follow you
Give me one more night
Give me just one more night
Oh, one more night
I can't wait forever
I know there'll never be a time
You'll ever feel the same
And I know it's only words
But if you change your mind
You know that I'll be here
And maybe we both can learn
Give me just one more night
Give me just one more night
Ooh, one more night
'Cause I can't wait forever
Give me just one more night
Give me just one more night
Ooh, one more night
I never dreamed you'd leave in summer
I thought you would go then come back home
I thought the cold would leave by summer
But my quiet nights will be spent alone
You said there would be warm love in springtime
That was when you started to be cold
I never dreamed you'd leave in summer
But now I find myself all alone
You said then you'd be the life in autumn
Said you'd be the one to see the way
I never dreamed you'd leave in summer
But now I find my love has gone away
If you feel it do it
You don't need a reason
For all you know
It could be good for you
To show your feelings
Don't just leave them
Do the things you believe in, it's alright
Don't worry turn around, I will still be here
I'm not moving don't worry
You just try and push me out
No, I'm not moving
No, I'm not going anywhere tonight
If you think it, say it
'Cause no one can stop you
Don't keep quiet, just 'cos you think you ought to
Feel free to shout it out, speak your mind, spit it out
'Cause I'm not moving don't worry
Ah you just try and push me out
No, I'm not moving, nowhere
Ah there's no hurry, I can sit it out
So don't worry turn around, I will still be here
If it hurts don't do it
'Cause no one can take you make you drink
And no one can tell you what you think
Remember if your spirit starts to sink
So you finally came right out and said it girl
What took you so long
It was in your eyes, that looks been there for too long
I'm waiting in line
Would you say if I was wasting my time
Or did I miss again, I think I missed again, oh
I think about it from time to time
When I'm lonely and on my own
I try to forget and yet
Still rush to the telephone
I'm waiting in line
Would you say if I was wasting my time
Or did I miss again, I think I missed again, oh
Or did I miss again, I think I missed again, oh
Well it feels like something you want so bad
And then you think you've got it
But it's something you already had
You can feel it all around you
But it's something you just can't touch
And I feel it coming at me
Yes I can feel it coming at me
Or did I miss again, I think I missed again, oh
Oh I missed again, I think I missed again, oh
So I'm waiting in line
But would you say if I was wasting my time
Did I miss again, I think I missed again, oh
Oh I missed again, I think I missed again, oh
Oh I missed again, I think I missed again, oh
Oh I missed again, I think I missed again, oh
I think I'm going back
To the thing I learned so well in my youth
I think I'm returning to
All those days when I was young enough to know the truth
Now there are no games to only pass the time
No more electric trains no more trees to climb
Thinking young and growing older is no sin
And I can play the game of life to win
I can recall the time when
I wasn't ashamed to reach out to a friend
And now I think I've got a lot more than
Just my toys to lend
Now there's more to do than watch my sailboat glide
And everyday can be my magic paradise
I can play hide and seek with my fears
And live my days instead of counting my years
Let everyone debate the true reality
I'd rather see my world the way it used to be
A little bit of courage is all we lack
So catch me if you can 'cause I'm going back
I'm going back
Not just sitting, walking away
Yes, I'm going back
Going back to my youth
Come on, catch me 'cause I'm going back
I've been doing some thinking
here on my own.
It's been on my mind.
This debt I owe to you.
I have to repay in kind.
But I can't find my way.
Tired and weary
I follow the path
that leads to your door.
But it occurred to me
all that I have
is already yours.
But I can't find my way
just to sit awhile
just to sit and watch you smile
But I can't find my way
Keep the faith you say
to keep the faith I pray.
Be strong you say
just follow the light.
Wheels keep turning but the closer I get
the farther I see.
Peace will only come
finding the peace within.
But I can't find my way
I can't find my way
I can't seem to find my way
I can't find my way oh no ...
Deep inside the border
Children are crying
Fighting for food
Holding their heads
Breaking their bread with a stone
All along the roadside
People are standing
Watching the sun
Shielding their eyes
Brushing the flies from their face
Tell me, what can you say?
Tell me, who do you blame?
Like a mirror you see yourself
These people each have a name
All around the township
Young men are dying
Of hunger and thirst
The well has run dry
The tears from her eye feeds her son
Now tell me, what can you say?
Tell me, who do you blame?
Like a mirror you see yourself
These people each have a name
You can say you're pulling back
We see the pictures everywhere
But what we don't see is
What's going on behind the closed doors
You don't seem to care
Do you expect me to believe you?
How can you really think?
But you can take your horse down to the water
Hold a gun at his head
And make him drink
No matter what you say
(No matter what you say)
It never gets any better
No matter what you do
(No matter what you do)
We never see any change
People living without rights
Without their dignity
But how loud does one man have to shout
To earn his right to be free?
You can keep your toy soldiers
To segregate the black and white
But when the dust settles
And the blood stops running
How do you sleep at night?
No matter what you say
(No matter what you say)
It never gets any better
No matter what you do
(No matter what you do)
We never see any change
No matter what you say
(No matter what you say)
It never gets any better
No matter what you do
(No matter what you do)
We never see any change
What makes you so high and mighty?
What makes you so qualified?
You can sit there and say
How many have their freedom?
But how many more died?
You decide to sit in judgement
Trying to play God yourself
Ooh but someday soon the buck is gonna stop
Stop with you and no one else
No matter what you say
(No matter what you say)
It never gets any better
No matter what you do
(No matter what you do)
We never see any change
No matter what you say
(No matter what you say)
It never gets any better
No matter what you do
(No matter what you do)
This love, this heart, these arms to hold
So tight to you, I won't let go
Can this be real, or just some dream that feels so true
I wish you love, I wish you more
You are all that I live for
I'll never hurt you believe me
My heart beats just for you
It only beats for you
I'll keep the fire alight for you
Can't think of nothing else, what can I do
This lonely heart of mine, it only beats for you
It only beats for you
You bring me peace, you make me smile
You give me strength and all the while
You ask for nothing, only love
And my heart beats just for you
It only beats for you
I'd say all these things to you
If you were here, but that's not gonna be
COs you 're not here at all
There's only me
But I won't stop trying
I won't give up, I'll wait for you
'Til you come back, it's all I can do
I'll be right here, I'm going nowhere without you
Give me the chance, just make the call
Just say the words, I'm waiting for
Just let this heart of mine show you
It only beats for you
Yes it only beats for you
It only beats for you
This love, this heart
These arms, they're only for you
This love, this heart
These arms, they're only for you
They're only for you
I'll try to make the sunshine
Brighter for you
Now we're leaving beautiful
There's a tear in your eyes
After all is said
After all is done
I'll do anything for you
Come with me
Close your eyes
Hold my hands and feel alright
Don't be scared
Don't be shy
Lift your head
It's gonna be alright
I'll try to make the star shine
Brighter for you
and I'll take you in the shoulder
Holding you way up high
I even chase the rainbow
Handed it in the sky
After all is said
After all is done
I'll do anything for you
Come with me
Close your eyes
Hold my hands
It'll be alright
Don't be scared
Don't be shy
Lift your head
It's gonna be alright
Through the eyes of innocence
You will find
You will see
They'll come in time all make sense
And you won't know
That it will show inside
Deep inside
Come with me
Close your eyes
Hold my hands
It'll be alright
Don't be scared
Don't be shy
Lift your head
It's gonna be alright
I'll try to make the days last longer for you
From the daybreak to the sunset to the end of time
I'll keep you safe away from the hurting
Cause when all is said
When all is done
I'll do anything for you
Come with me
Close your eyes
Hold my hands
It'll be alright
Don't be scared
Don't be shy
Lift your head
It's gonna be alright
Come with me
Close your eyes
Hold my hands
It'll be alright
Don't be scared
Don't be shy
Lift your head
It's gonna be alright
Well it don't matter to me what you say, what you say
And it don't matter to me what you're doing alright, alright.
Because I've heard it all so many times before
Just what you're saying and
I don't really want to hear it all no more, no more
Don't wanna hear it no more
Cos there's no way that you can run
Cos I'm gonna find you
And there's nobody that you can turn to
cos I'll be behind you just to remind you
That it don't matter to me what you say, what you say, say, say, saying
Well it didn't matter to me what you're doing alright, alright
It seems to me it's been too easy for you for too long
So you'd better climb down before you fall and hurt your pride, your pride
You're gonna hurt your pride
Cos there' nowhere that you can run to
Cos I'm gonna find you
And there's no place that you can stay
Cos I'll be behind you just to remind you
That it don't matter to me what you do
Well it don't matter to me, I'm talking to you, talking to you
Well it don't matter to me believe me
Well it don't matter to me
Repeat to fade
You were lonely and you needed a friend
And he was there at the right time with the right smile
Just a shoulder to lean on
Someone to tell you it'll all work out alright
Don't let him steal your heart away
No, don't let him steal your heart away
Don't let him steal your heart away
No, don't let him steal your heart away
You can look at him the way you did me
And hold him close say you're never letting go
But any fool can see you're fooling yourself
But you ain't fooling me
So don't let him steal your heart away
No, don't let him steal your heart away
And don't pack my suitcase, I'll be back
And don't take my pictures off a' the wall
Oh, did you hear me
Don't let him change a thing 'cos I'll be back
Jus tell him to pack his things and get out of your life
And just give me one more chance
I'll show you I'm right, I'm right
'Cos I've been thinking and I know it was me leaving you lonely
But hoping you could be strong
But could you look at me straight
Tell me what else can I do but say I was wrong
So don't let him steal your heart away
No, don't let him steal your heart away
Well he's gonna try to make it work for you
Make you think your whole life's been leading to this
But whatever you do
Think about me and don't be fooled by his kiss
And don't let him steal your heart away
Please, don't let him steal your heart away
And don't pack my suitcase, I'll be back
And don't take my pictures off a' your wall
Oh, did you hear me
Don't let him change a thing 'cos I'll be back
Jus tell him to pack his things and get out of your life
And just give me one more chance
I'll show you I'm right
You know I'm right
You were lonely and you needed a friend
And he was there at the right time with the right smile
Just a shoulder to lean on
Someone to say don't you worry it'll all be alright
But he's no good for you
He'll make you think your whole life's been leading to this
And whatever you do
Think about me, oh, and don't be fooled by his kiss
You said you would, you didn't and I wanna know why
And don't make no excuses
You promised, you promised, you better explain
Though I don't know what the use is
You said you could, you couldn't, now why did you lie?
You made it look so easy
You did it, why do it, what was your point?
Laughing while you tease me
Oh, do you know and do you care?
I said I did, I shouldn't cos the magic will go
It happened once before
You'll see it, you'll steal it and take it away
And then come back for more
Don't say you would, you wouldn't 'cos I saw you myself
It's too late for your reason
You're lying, you're lying, you've done it this time
I'm sick of all the cheating
Oh, well do you know and do you care?
'Cos I watch you
Oh every day I watch you pass me by
I'll get you
Yes in the end I'll get you
Just watch me try
Oh you make it hard to be hard but I'm trying my best
Cos down inside I'm burnin'
You want it, you got it, now take it and run
I'll hide how much it's hurtin'
Oh, well do you know and do you care?
Oh, well do you know and do you care?
Oh, do you know, and do you care?
I never thought I’d ever get tired of playing games
But I’ve been holding back for too long
Now the time has come to get it right
Now’s the time to show them all that they’re wrong
’cos they said thunder and they said lightning
It would never strike twice
Oh but if that’s true, why can’t you tell me
How come this feels so nice, oh it feels alright
Never ever did believe in guiding lights
’cos what you didn’t hold, slipped away
Oh but there’s a feeling deep down in my shoe
’cos things look like they’re going my way
’cos they say thunder and they say lightning
It would never strike twice
Oh but if that’s true, why can’t you tell me
How come this feels so nice, oh it feels alright
I never ever did believe in a second chance
You get, just one crack of the whip, that’s all
If you played the game, you got treated right
Oh but I’m not playing the game, no more
’cos they say thunder and they say lightning
It would never strike twice
Oh but if that’s true, why can’t you tell me
How come this feels so nice, oh it feels alright
I read all the letters
I read each word that you've sent to me
And though it's past now and the words start to fade
All the memories I have still remain
I've kept all the pictures but I hide my feelings so no one knows
Oh sure my friends all come round but I'm in a crowd on my own
It's 'cause you're gone now but your heart, heart still remains
And it'll be here if you come again
You see I'd heard the rumours, I knew before you let me know
But I didn't believe it, not you, no you would not let me go
Seems I was wrong but I love, I love you the same
And that's the one thing that you can't take away but just remember
If leaving me is easy
Then you know coming back is harder
If leaving me is easy
Then you know coming back is harder
If leaving me is easy
Then you know coming back is harder
If leaving me is easy
Then you know coming back is harder
If leaving me is easy
Then you know coming back is harder
If leaving me is easy
Then you know coming back is harder
If leaving me is easy
How can I just let you walk away, just let you leave without a trace
When I stand here taking every breath with you, ooh
You're the only one who really knew me at all
How can you just walk away from me,
when all I can do is watch you leave
Cos we've shared the laughter and the pain and even shared the tears
You're the only one who really knew me at all
So take a look at me now, oh there's just an empty space
And there's nothing left here to remind me,
just the memory of your face
Ooh take a look at me now, well there's just an empty space
And you coming back to me is against the odds and that's what I've got to face
I wish I could just make you turn around,
turn around and see me cry
There's so much I need to say to you,
so many reasons why
You're the only one who really knew me at all
So take a look at me now, well there's just an empty space
And there's nothing left here to remind me, just the memory of your face
Now take a look at me now, cos there's just an empty space
But to wait for you, is all I can do and that's what I've got to face
Take a good look at me now, cos I'll still be standing here
And you coming back to me is against all odds
It's the chance I've gotta take
Take a look at me now
Come gather 'round people wherever you roam,
and admit that the waters around you have grown,
and accept it that soon you'll be drenched to the bone
if your time to you is worth savin'
then you better start swimmin'
or you'll sink like a stone
for the times they are a-changin'
Come writers and critics who prophecise with your pen
and keep your eyes wide,
the chance won't come again,
and don't speak too soon
for the wheel's still in spin
and there's no tellin' who
that it's namin'
for the loser now
will be later to win
for the times they are a-changin'
Come senators, congressmen,
please heed the call
don't stand in the doorway,
don't block the hall,
for he that' gets hurt
will be he who has stalled,
there's a battle
outside and it's ragin'
it'll soon shake your windows
and rattle your walls
for the times they are a-changin'
Come mothers and fathers
throughout the land,
and don't criticize
what you can't understand
your sons and your daughters
are beyond your command,
your old road is rapidly agin',
please get out of the new one
if you can't lend your hand
for the times they are a-changin'
The line it is drawn,
the curse it is cast,
the slow one now will
later be fast,
as the present now
will later be past
the order is rapidly fadin'
and the first one now
will later be last
for the times they are a-changin'
If we can cross at the place that divides us,
Cross the river, the river so wide,
If we can smother the pain that's inside us,
Deny the demons that wait by our side,
We can find, find the light.
Our nights are filled with the light of the same moon.
We share the comfort of the same stars.
Our days are bright with the light of the same sun.
That don't matter. Can't you see what we are,
What we are, what we become?
Keep our sights on the way ahead.
Don't look back. It won't help us now.
The storm we left so far behind
Seems a dark memory that starts to fade,
But, until we see the light, we will not be safe.
We all sink or swim in the same ocean.
Break our skin and we will bleed.
Our minutes pass with the same motion.
We face the same danger. We share the same need.
Oh, we're all the same, you and me.
Keep our sights on the way ahead.
Don't look back. That won't help us now.
'Cause upstream, the river, it gets too wide,
So we must build that bridge right here,
'Cause if we wait, we will not reach the other side.
You see under that clear blue sky
The winds of change are blowing hard and long.
And they'll not stop to rest
'Cause the change is gonna come.
Our nights are filled with the light of the same moon.
We share the comfort of the same stars.
Our days are bright with the light of the same sun.
That don't matter. Can't you see what we are,
Oh, what we are, what we become?
Keep our sights on the way ahead.
Don't look back. That won't help us now.
'Cause upstream, the river, it gets too wide,
And if we don't build that bridge
Right here, right now,
Well it's a long, long road when you're out there alone,
no matter what side you're on,
but there's a heart of gold behind the smile
and it brought me to where I belong.
'Cos I'd set my sights on finding you
and I'm staying forever, you know it's true
Yes I'd set my sights on finding you
don't be lonely tonight, we can make it alright
No matter what you say,
no matter who you are,
love always finds a way
finds a way to your heart.
Well it's a cold lonely road, but you can survive
no matter which way you choose,
and as long as there's life behind these eyes
I'm here with you, win or lose.
If you let your light shine on through
someone will come round to pull you through,
yes just let your light shine on through,
don't be lonely tonight, you can make it alright.
Just hold my hand,
come with me a while, I'll make you smile.
Just hold my hand
there's someone who loves you, it's me, oh it's me.
No matter what you say,
no matter who you are,
love always finds a way
finds a way to your heart.
It's alright that you cry if you're lonely sometime,
no matter who's by your side,
'cos the love that you look for is inside us all,
but it's something you have to find
And I'd set my sights on finding you
and I'm staying forever, you know it's true.
Yes I'd set all my sights on findingyou
don't be lonely tonight, we can make it alright.
No matter what you say,
no matter who you are,
love always finds a way
It's in your eyes,
the love you hide away.
You can't disguise
the things you feel, the thing you say
If you just call my name
any time at all, I'll be there.
I don't know why,
the way you're falling away from me.
I can't describe
it's how it feels, it's what I see.
If you just call my name
anytime at all,
anytime at all,
anytime at all, I'll be there.
I look around, all I see is you
but you gotta tell me that you want me too.
Look at me, you're all that I need, it's true.
I'm here, just call my name
anytime at all, I'll be there.
I look around, all I see is you
but you gotta tell me that you want me too.
Look at me, you're all that I need, it's true.
I can't disguise
the love I wait for you to share
I can't deny
if you reach out and touch my hand it's there.
Or just call my name,
anytime at all,
anytime at all,
No I never meant to hold you back
I never meant to turn away
please forgive me
I never meant to break your heart
I'd give my last breath before I do
please forgive me
No I never meant to hold you down
I never meant to break your heart
somehow, somehow
we are survivors
No I never meant to hold you back
I never meant to turn away
here we are standing here
survivors in the night
No I never meant to break your heart
I'll always be here for you
here's my word, take my hand
survivors in the night
No I never meant to let you down
I'd give my last breath before I do
all I ever wanted was to be right here
survivors in the night
When all is said and done
we'll find a way
to put this all behind us
we'll find some way
'cos you know that I won't be leaving
yes I'm here and I won't be leaving
No I never meant to cause you pain
no I never meant to hurt
all I want to do now, is to try my best
survivors in the night
When all is said and done
we'll find someday
we can forget all this
somehow, some way
And as long as I'm here
there'll be no worries any more
and all these promises I'm making now
I'll hold each day
So don't ever, don't ever, don't forget
that I never, never menat to break your heart
all I ever wanted was to stand beside you
survivors in the night
I've forgotten everything about you
'Til someone says your name
I've forgotten all the reasons I loved you
'Til someone tells me that you rang
The memories are hazy now
I don't recall at all
There's nothing, there's nothing there
Just me and I don't understand why
I can't recollect my feelings
'Til someone mentions that they saw you
I really don't remember all the things you said
'Til someone shows me where you live
Why is everything so hazy now
I don't recall at all
There's nothing, there's nothing there just me
And I don't understand why
I can't recall your smile
The touch of your hand holding mine
And I can't remember why
Holding you seemed so right
The memories they're hazy now
I don't recall at all
There's nothing, there's nothing there just me
And I don't understand why
I've forgotten everything about you
'Til someone says your name
I've forgotten all the reasons I loved you
They come from miles around just to hear him play
He's on the same street corner almost every day
And there's always a crowd wherever he goes
And when he blows his horn, well everybody knows
I only wanna see him play
All the girls 'n' boys they wanna see him play
Nobody else they wanna see him play
And he brings a tear to the eye
He'll make you smile of make you cry
And nobody asks him why
Cos they just wanna see him play
They come from every way, every night
He's got a band so out there, it's outta sight
And the boys in the dancehall are rocking in the aisle
The girls up front - they wanna see him smile
I only wanna see him play
All the girls 'n' boys they wanna see him play
Nobody else they wanna see him play
And he brings a tear to the eye
He'll make you smile of make you cry
Ooh, nobody asks him why
Cos they just wanna see him play
Yeah, he's the man with the horn
Ooh they wanna see him play
Yeah, he's the man with the horn
Ooh they wanna see him play
Yeah, he's the man with the horn
You know they wanna see him, they wanna see him
They wanna, they wanna, they wanna see him play
(Play it, Don!)
Ah, station to station, coast to coast
Well you can hear all his records on the radio
He makes every evening feel like Saturday night
And if you're happy or sad he'll make the feeling right
I only wanna see him play
All the girls 'n' boys they wanna see him play
Nobody else they wanna see him play
And he brings a tear to the eye
He'll make you smile of make you cry
Ooh, nobody asks him why
Cos they just wanna see him play
Yes, you know they wanna see him, they wanna see him
Chow, they know they wanna see him, they wanna see him
They wanna, they wanna, they wanna see him play
They wanna see him play, play, play, play
Oh, all the girls and boys wanna see him play
All the girls and boys wanna see him play
All the girls and boys...
I don't want to see you go
There's too much to say.
But it's gone on for too long
I know how much it hurts to hear
You show it and I know it
So there's no reason for the tears.
I don't want to see you go
Don't want to see you cry.
'Cos I've been there and I know it
How much it hurts being left behind
If you hold on, just be strong
There'll come a time.
All things will come to pass, you know
All things will come around
I see your bags are packed
I guess that means you won't be back
There's nothing left could keep me chained
To get you, bring you back again.
If you hold on, won't be long
We'll find our time and place once more
Just hold tight, it's alright
We've been here before.
All things will come to pass, you know
All things will come around.
But if you don't want to stay, say goodbye
My number's on your wall
'Cos I've been there and I've seen it
It's there beside those other guys
So keep it, you may need it
There's no more reason for the lies.
Well it was one of those great stories
That you can't put down at night
The hero knew what he had to do
And he wasn't afraid to fight
The villain goes to jail
While the hero goes free
I wish it were that simple for me
And the reason that she loved him
Was the reason I loved him too
And he never wondered what was right or wrong
He just knew, he just knew
Shadows and shape mixed together at dawn
But by time you catch them simplicity's gone
And so we sort through the pieces my friends and I
Searching through the darkness to find the breaks in the sky
And the reason that she loved him
Was the reason I loved him too
And he never wondered what was right or wrong
He just knew, he just knew
And we wonder, yes we wonder
How do you make sense of this
When the hero kills the maiden
With his kiss, with his kiss
Well it was one of those great stories
That you can't put down at night
The hero knew what he had to do
And he wasn't afraid to fight
The villain goes to jail
While the hero goes free
I wish it were that simple for me
You called me from the room in your hotel
All full of romance
For someone that you'd met
Telling me how sorry you were
Leaving so soon
And that you miss me sometimes
When you're alone in your room
Do I feel lonely too?
You have no right to ask me how I feel
You have no right to speak to me so kind
I can't go on holding onto ties
Now that we're living separate lives
I held on to let you go
And if you lost your love for me
You never let it show
There was no way to compromise
So now we're living separate lives
Oh, it's so typical
Love leads to isolation
So you build that wall
So you build that wall
And you make it stronger
You have no right to ask me how I feel
You have no right to speak to me so kind
Someday I might find myself looking in your eyes
But for now we'll go on living separate lives
Yes, for now we'll go on living separate lives
It's there in the eyes of the children
In the faces smiling in the windows
You can come on out, come on open the doors
Brush away the tears of freedom
Now we're here, there's no turning back
We have each other
We have one voice
Hand in hand we will lay the tracks
Because the train is coming to carry you home
Come dance with me
Come on and dance into the light
Everybody dance into the light
There'll be no more hiding in shadows of fear
There'll be no more chains to hold you
The future is yours - you hold the key
And there are no walls with freedom
Now we're here, we won't go back
We are one world
We have one voice
Side by side we are not afraid
Because the train is coming to carry you home
Come dance with me
Come on and dance into the light
Everybody dance into the light
Do you see the sun - it's a brand new day
Oh, the world's in your hands, now use it
What's past is past, don't turn around
Brush away the cobwebs of freedom
Now we're here, there's no turning back
You have each other
You have one voice
Hand in hand you can lay the tracks
Because the train is coming to carry you home
Come dance with me
Come on and dance into the light
You've been in love that little bit too long
You've been in love and I think that you know
You've been in love it's time to move on
You've been in love and it's starting to show
She's getting to used to your face, getting too used to your smile
She's saying the same things every morning before you leave her
You'd better run, find out what's going through her mind
You'd better look out, cos he's not far behind
You've been in love that little bit too long
You've been in love and I think that you know
You've been in love it's time to move on
You've been in love and it's starting to show
Suddenly she's trying to please you, you start to think she's acting strange
And after all these years she wears make-up in the morning
You'd better run, find out what's going through her mind
You'd better look out, cos he's not far behind
Did you really believe she's doing it all for you?
Oh, can't you see, there's somebody else
You never showed it, you should have known it
You've been in love, yeah you've been in love
You've been in love, yeah you've been in love
Going round singing all those love songs, songs you haven't heard for years
You're gonna have to ask her why she's so happy
You'd better run, find out what's going through her mind.
But it may be too late, and I know why
You've been in love that little bit too long
You've been in love and I think that you know
You've been in love it's time to move on
You've been in love and it's starting to show
You've been in love that little bit too long
You've been in love, I think that you know
You've been in love it's time to move on
You've been in love and it's starting to show
To show, show, you've been in love, oh oh
(I've got blisters on my fingers!)
You Touch My Heart
Somehow you reach in and you touch my heart
Somehow you reach in, you touch my soul
When I look at you, I see everything we could be
Eyes wide open, looking at me
What can I offer you that you've never seen
Just don't be afraid, someone is watching
You will see
Somehow when you smile the day semms brighter
Somehow when you smile you melt my heart
When I look at you I see all things we should be
And in your darkest hour, hold out your hand for me
Something will guide you, I'll be beside you
And when it's rough out there, I'm with you everywhere
I will be right behind you if you should fall
Someday you will find everything you look for
Someday you will find a love like mine
When you smile at her you will feel the things you could be
Eyes wide open, looking at me
What can I offer you that you've never seen
Just don't be afraid, someone is watching
You will see, you will see
Somehow you reach in and you touch my heart
Somehow you reach in, you touch my soul
When I look at you, I see everything we could be
[Instrumental]
We stand, hang our heads disbelieving
then not knowing how could such a thing be wrong
we wonder just what must they be thinking
to take a life of one so young
So tell me when will it be over now, how soon?
how far must they go, to prove to you?
We wait and we wonder how this happened
killing the old, the innocent, the young
while sons follow in fathers footsteps not understanding
that what they do could somehow be so wrong
So tell me when will tit be over now, how soon?
how far must they go, to prove to you?
So we will wait and we'll wonder
No regrets, no forgiveness, no compassion
these brave heroes only know to hit and run
slowly my sadness turns to rage and we wonder
how can these scars ever heal, when all is said and done
So tell me when will it be over now, how soon?
how many tears must fall to prove to you?
please tell me, when will it be over now, how soon?
and how far must they go, to prove to you?
Put your faith in what you most believe in
Two worlds, one family
Trust your heart
Let fate decide
To guide these lives we see
A paradise untouched by man
Within this world blessed with love
A simple life, they live in peace
Softly tread the sand below your feet now
Two worlds, one family
Trust your heart
Let fate decide
To guide these lives we see
Beneath the shelter of the trees
Only love can enter here
A simple life, they live in peace
Raise your head up
Lift high the load
Take strength from those that need you
Build high the walls
Build strong the beams
A new life is waiting
But danger's no stranger here
No words describe a mother's tears
No words can heal a broken heart
A dream is gone, but where there's hope
Somewhere something is calling for you
Two worlds, one family
Trust your heart
Let fate decide
To guide these lives we see
Put your faith in what you most believe in
Two worlds, one family
Trust your heart, let fate decide
To guide these lives we see
A paradise untouched by man
Within this world blessed with love
A simple life, they live in peace
Softly tread the sand below your feet now
Two worlds, one family
Trust your heart, let fate decide
To guide these lives we see
Beneath the shelter of the trees
Only love can enter here
A simple life, they live in peace
Raise your head up, lift high the load
Take strength from those that need you
Build high the walls, build strong the beams
A new life is waiting but danger's no stranger here
No words describe a mother's tears
No words can heal a broken heart
A dream is gone but where there's hope
Somewhere, something is calling for you
Two worlds, one family
Trust your heart, let fate decide
To guide these lives we see
All I need is a TV show, that and the radio.
Down on my luck again, down on my luck again...
I can show you, I can show you -
Some of the people in my life.
I can show you, I can show you -
Some of the people in my life.
It's driving me mad, just another way of passing the day.
I... I... get so lonely when she's not there. I, I, I...
You're just another face that I know from the TV show,
I have known you for so very long I feel you like a friend,
Can't you do anything for me, can I touch you for a while,
Can I meet you on another day and we will fly away.
I can show you, I can show you -
Some of the people in my life.
I can show you, I can show you -
Some of the people in my life.
It's driving me mad, just another way of passing the day.
I... I... get so lonely when she's not there. I, I, I...
Turn it on, turn it on, turn it on again...
Turn it on, turn it on, turn it on again...
[I can see another face]
Turn it on, turn it on, turn it on again...

Relax and flow down-stream
And it's not dying

Let ignorance and hate
May go the dead

Thru My Eyes
It's never where you think you'll find it
The thing you think you're looking for
It could take you all your lifetime
And still you'd never quite be sure
You could look everywhere
Because you know it's there
Soemwhere beneath the sky
But too closely and you'll get burned
There's no lesson learned
Yet some people pass it by
You'll see the things different when you look thru my eyes
Things are different if you see what I see
Just look closely and you'll see thru my eyes
It could be different, you'll see how it could be,
If you can see
You may need help to find your way home
Those who brought you here have flown
The road you take is full of hope or sadness
The choice you make will be your own
But you're not alone in there
Just say hello in there
Cos there are many just like you
They'll help you find someway
To make it all the way
They'll tell you all you have to do
You'll see the things different when you look thru my eyes
Things are different if you see what I see
Just look closely and you'll see thru my eyes
It could be different, you'll see how it could be,
If you can see
No one warns you of the heartache
No one can hide you from the storm
But from the shadows there will come the sunshine
A place to dry and keep you warm
Though no one tells you how
Your heart's beating faster now
Getting stronger day by day
Suddenly it's clear, what you seek is near
It's what you learn along the way
It's never where you think you'll find it
The thing you think you're looking for
Well it could take you all your lifetime
Still you'll never quite be sure
You'll find it, just look closer
[Instrumental]
Some day, when I'm awfully low,
When the world is cold,
I will feel a glow just thinking of you...
And the way you look tonight.
Oh but you're lovely, with your smile so warm
And your cheek so soft,
There is nothing for me but to love you,
And the way you look tonight.
With each word your tenderness grows,
Tearing my fear apart...
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose,
Touches my foolish heart.
Lovely... Never, ever change.
Keep that breathless charm.
Won't you please arrange it?
'Cause I love you
Just the way you look tonight.
The sun is rising in the sky
Here we're waitin', standin' by
Round in circles, round and round
Pulse is racing, can't sit down
The noise of people fills the air
Search for silence goes nowhere
Time just passes, starts to rain
I look at you and I feel your pain
Day after day watching it grow, counting the time
In each and every way the pleasure is mine
Through all of the high times
Through all of the low times
The farther we reach, the farther we see
The farther we go
Time after time waitin' for you, when will you come?
Wanting to play the game we've begun
Through all of the high times
Through all of the low times
The more we can give, the more we can keep
The more there will be
Like the man said, "He was right
'Bout something coming in the air tonight"
Well if it's coming, let it be now
I feel it's close, I just know somehow
I can't hold on much longer
My head is filled with wonder
But if these things don't come to pass
I'll bring you water and fill your glass
Everyday the stronger it grows, it's easy to see
Getting to feel how good it can be
Through all of the high times
Through all of the low times
The more that we teach, the better we learn
The better we'll be
Through all of the high times
Through all of the low times
Through all of the high times
Through all of the low times
Through all of the high times
Through all of the low times
There’s a place for us
Somewhere a place for us
Peace and quiet and open air
Wait for us somewhere
There’s a time for us
Someday a time for us
Time together with time to spare
Time to love, time to care
Someday, somewhere
We’ll find a new way of living
We’ll find a way of forgiving
Somewhere, somewhere
There’s a place for us
A time and a place for us
Hold my hand and we’re half way there
Hold on to my hand and I’ll take you there
Somehow, something, somewhere
Someday, somewhere, somewhere, somewhere
There’s gotta be somewhere
Somehow, somewhere, somehow
Somehow, somewhere I know
Somewhere I know there’s a place for us
There’s got to be somewhere
Got to be somewhere
Somewhere out there
Somewhere
Instrumental
Everywhere I turn, I hurt someone
But there's noting I can say
To change the things I've done
Of all the things I hid from you
I cannot hide the shame
And I pray someone, something will come
To take away the pain
Chorus 1:
There's no way out of this dark place
No hope, no future
I know I can't be free
Well, I can't see another way
I can't face another day
Tell me where did I go wrong
Everyone I loved, they're all gone
I'd do everything so differently
But I can't turn back the time
There's no shelter from the storm inside of me
Oooh!
Chorus 1:
There's no way out of this dark place
No hope, no future
I know I can't be free
But I can't see another way
Oh and I can't face another day
Break 1:
Can't believe the words I hear (A word)
It's like an answer to a prayer
When I look around I see (Oh I can see)
This place, this time, this friend of mine, mmm
Break 2:
I know it's hard but you found somehow
To look into your heart and to forgive me now
You've given me the strenght to see just where my journey ends
You've given me the strenght to carry on
Oooh!
Chorus 2:
I see the path from this dark place
I see my future
Your forgivness has set me free
Oh and I can see another way
I can face another day
I see the path (I can see the path)
I see the future
I see the path from this dark place
I see my future
(To Fade)
The key to my survival
was never in much doubt
the question was how I could keep sane
trying to find a way out
things were never easy for me
peace of mind was hard to find
and I needed a place where I could hide
somewhere I could call mine
I didn't think much about it
til it started happening all the time
soon I was living with the fear everyday
of what might happen at night
I couldn't stand to hear the
crying of my mother
and I rememeber when
I swore that, that would be the
last they'd see of me
and I never went home again
they say time is a healer
and now my wounds are not the same
I rang the bell with my heart in my mouth
I had to hear what he'd say
He sat me down to talk to me
he looked me straight in the eyes
he said:
You're no son, no son of mine
You're no son, no son of mine
You walked out, you left us behind
and you're no son, no son of mine
oh his words how they hurt me, I'll never forget it
and as the time, it went by, I lived to regret it
You're no son, no son of mine
but where should I go,
and what should I do
you're no son, no son of mine
but I came here for help, I came here for you
Well the years they passed slowly
I thought about him everyday
what would I do, if we passed on the street
would I keep running away
in and out of hiding places
soon I'd have to face the facts
we'd have to sit down and talk it over
and that would mean going back
they say time is a healer
and now my wounds are not the same
I rang the bell with my heart in my mouth
I had to hear what he'd say
He sat down to talk to me
he looked me straight in the eyes
he said:
You're no son of mine
I've got sunshine on a cloudy day
And when it's cold outside
I've got the month of May
I guess you'll say
What can make me feel this way
My girl, I'm Talking about my girl
I've got so much honey the bees envy me
I've got a sweeter song
Than the birds in the trees
I guess you'll say
what can make me feel this way
My girl, I'm talking about my girl
I don't need no money fortune or fame
I got all the riches baby one man can claim
I guess you'll say
What can make me feel this way
My girl, I'm talking about my girl
I've got sunshine on a cloudy day
My girl
While I sitting here trying to think of things to say
Someone lies bleeding in a field somewhere
So it would seem we've still got a long long way to go
I've seen all I wanna see today
While I sitting here trying to move you anyway I can
Someone's son lies dead in a gutter somewhere
And it would seem that we've still got a long long way to go
But I can't take it anymore
Turn it off if you want to
Switch it off it will go away
Turn it off if you want to
Switch it off or look away
While we're sitting and we talk and talk and we talk some more
Someone's loved one's heart stops beating in a street somewhere
So it would seem we've still got a long long way to go, I know
I've heard all I wanna hear today
Turn it off if you want to
(Turn it off if you want to)
Switch it off it will go away
(Switch it off it will go away)
Turn it off if you want to
(Turn it off if you want to)
Switch it off or look away
(Switch it off it will go away)
Switch it off, switch it off
Switch it off, switch it off
Switch it off, switch it off
My mom and dad both say
I must be crazy to be this infatuated
But I know you know
We got something special never felt before
You get me going just looking at you
And the feeling's not hard to recognise so
Alright I'll come out in the open with it
Will you walk out with me?
Cos you're the first girl I've ever loved
Tell me do you feel the same way
Well I'll show you I'm not like all the rest
Cos I know who I am
Your skin is smooth as silk and your eyes like stars
You're just like a picture book standing there
But I can't go on
No, I can't go on thinking you don't feel the same way that I do
I'll be so careful I'll hold you like china
I'll promise not to hurt you I'll hold you like china
You won't feel nothing, I'll hold you like china
'Cos I know it's your first time
Your mum and dad don't like me
And they tell me every time I call around to see you
I don't know why
Cos I always straighten my tie and comb my hair
I know your brother thinks that
I'm a limp wristed wimp from the other side of town
I know he's got me wrong
Because I'm really not like that, I'll tell you why
You're the first girl I've ever loved
Tell me do you feel the same way
Well I'll show you I'm not like all the rest
'Cos I know who I am
I remember the very first time I held your hand
And that was the last time you were so close to me
But I can't go on
No, I can't go on thinking you don't feel the same way as I do
I'll be so careful I'll hold you like china
I'll promise not to hurt you I'll hold you like china
You won't feel nothing, I'll hold you like china
'Cos I know it's your first time
I know you know and now I want to, I want to tell everybody
I know you know and now I want them all to see
Repeat to fade
With a young man, with his heart on his sleeve
Had the body of a man, and a trust of a child
He never meant to hurt anybody
But he broke some hearts along the way
Ooh, it's all over
Ooh, it's all done
Ooh, it's all over
Or, has it just begun?
All that he spoke came right from his heart
Though some had been hurt by the things he had said
Go walking in the long grass to find his peace
Sometimes it'd grow so tall he'd lose his way
Ooh, now it's all over
Ooh, it's all done
Ooh, it's all over
Or, has it just begun?
Ooh, it's all over
Ooh, it's all done

I've been trying,

Now you said you loved me
so sincerely
that I believed that you loved me
Yet I can't understand why
Can't I be your only man
Day after day you
Ya Treat me any old way
I wanna go but my heart says no
Acting so strange
but my love still remains
So keep on trying boy
she's gonna change

Day after day you
Ya Treat me any old way
I wanna go but my heart says no
Acting so strange

It says keep on trying boy

Oooh...ohoooh...
Ya gotta keep on trying
Oooh...ohoooh...
You know I never meant to see you again
and I only passed by as a friend
All this time I stayed out of sight
I started wondering why
Now I, I wish it would rain down, down on me
Yes I wish it would rain, rain down on me now
You said you didn't need me in your life
I guess you were right
Well I never meant to cause you no pain
But it looks like I did it again
Now I, I wish ....
Though your hurt is gone, mines hanging on, inside
And I know it's eating me through every night and day
I'm just waiting on your sign
'Cos I know, I know I never meant to cause you no pain
And I realize I let you down
But I know in my heart of heart of hearts
I know I'm never gonna hold you again
Earth!
Fire!
Wind!

"THE POWER IS YOURS!!"
I look out the window every day, I see the world go by
Watching I sit and wait for you
Just hoping you'll catch my eye
You see me stare but I don't care
I like the way you smile
One day I'll get to talk to you
Ooh, right now well I'm too shy
But in my world of make believe
You're the one what I need, oh, oh...
I could imagine me with you
But it's an impossibility
I'd love to try to realise, I gotta deal with reality
But if you turn my way, I'd look away, ooh even face-to-face
And deep inside me, inside my mind
Someone else is trying to take my place
But in my world of make believe
You're the one what I need, oh, oh...
Oh, come with me, I'll show you everything
Come with me, ooh
Come with me, I'll show you everything
It could be, come along with me and let me take you there, oh, oh...
I look out the window every day, I see the world go by
Watching I sit and wait for you
Ooh, just hoping that you'll walk by
But if you turn my way, I'd look away, ooh even face-to-face
And deep inside, ooh in my mind
Someone else is trying to take my place
In my world of make believe
You're the one what I need, oh, oh...
Come with me, ooh
Come with me, I'll show you everything
It could be, come along with me and let me take you there, oh, oh...
All of my life, come with me, come with me, come with me...
All of my life...
I like the way you smile
All of my life...
While the city starts to sleep
She's watching over you
Smoke hangs on the downtown skyline
Moon pushes through
But some people's on fire tonight
Wind rushing round their feet
Someone's gonna sleep well tonight
Word is on the street
So high flyer, high flyer
Fly high tonight
Fly angel, fly higher
Fly here tonight
It's a tribal thing we're seeing
War paint on the face
A question of territory, pride and space
People strutting and feathers flying
It's a sorry scene
Someone's sleeping well tonight
Word is on the street
So high flyer, high flyer
Fly high tonight
Fly angel, fly higher
Fly here tonight
Brother, my brother
Don't let me down again
Mother oh mother
Wipe away your tears again
High flying bird embraced him
Held him to her breast
Soft feathers brushed his face
Finally came to rest
Gently rocking him to and fro
He quietly went to sleep
Someone's found a place of peace tonight
Word is on the street
So high flyer, high flyer
Fly high tonight
Fly angel, fly higher
Fly away tonight
High flyer, high flyer
Fly high tonight
Fly angel, fly higher
Fly safe tonight
Well, you've gotta shout
If you've got something to say.
I know it's getting bad. You read it everyday.
And you, you can try your best to fight it,
But you won't make it on your own.
Oh, someone better tell the people up there.
I think they ought to know
The bubble's just about to burst.
Tell them they'd better beware.
The word is on the street.
Get up on your feet and shout out.
The kids out there don't know how to react.
The streets are getting tough,
And that's a matter of fact.
And I, I can't take this any longer,
But we can't make it on our own.
Oh, the people up there find it hard to relate.
They don't know how it feels
To be standing there on your own.
Believe me, it's never too late.
It's time to make a move.
Get up on your feet and shout...
Stop. Look down.
Everybody, do you see what's going on around you?
Stop. Look down.
Everybody, do you see what's going on around you?
Stop. Look down.
Everybody, do you see what's going on around you?
Stop. Look down.
Everybody, do you see what's going on around -
Shout out. Shout it out. Shout loud.
Oh, shout out. Shout it out. Shout loud.
There are people who give
And there are people who take.
Oh, and I believe it's gonna get better.
Realize what a difference you make.
And don't turn away. Hey! I'm talking to you.
So there's only the one solution.
Stop and think what's going on.
And you can draw your own conclusions,
But we won't make it on our own.
Oh, someone better tell the people up there.
I think they ought to know
The bubble's just about to burst.
Tell them they'd better beware.
The word is on the street.
Get up on your feet and shout...
Stop. Look down.
Everybody, do you see what's going on around you?
Stop. Look down.
Everybody, do you see what's going on around you?
Stop. Look down.
Everybody, do you see what's going on around you?
Stop. Look down.
Everybody, do you see what's going on around you?
Stop. Look down. Look down.
It's going on around you.
When I saw him last
He had that look in his eyes
I said: "do you need to talk?"
He said: "no"
So I called him up
Asked him again and I waited a while
He began to speak
Then he started to cry
You know some things are best left unspoken
Somethings just never work out
And sometimes
Seems you try and you try and whatever you do
There´s a fix that you´re in and you just can´t get out
He said "I need your help,
I need it now!
Give me the strength to go on!"
Well I didn´t know what
But I knew that something was wrong
He still had his pride
He´d tell me in time
But this feeling inside
Kept eating at me
I was losing a friend
And I had to know why
When I heard his voice on the phone
I knew it was bad news
So I rushed to be by his side
We said goodbye for the last time
I gently hugged him
Kissed him goodbye
He whispered: "I need you help
I need it now!
Give me the strenght to go on!"
We were always laughing
Just remember laughing mama
We were always laughing
Oh I need your help
I need it now
Give me the strength to go on
Well as time goes by
And it all becomes clear
We see the deciets
We see the lies
So I asked myself over and over and over again
What did they know
And what did they hide
Fools, leading the innocent blindly
Fools, turn it away
Sometimes
When I think of my friend with that look in his eyes
And if they told the truth
He might been here today
Oh I need your help
I need it know
Just give me the strength to go on
We were always laughing
Just remember the laughing
We were always laughing
It´s just we need it now
I got lost, couldn't find my way
And I guess there's nothin' more to say
Love can make you blind, make you act so strange
But I'm here and here I will stay
So everyday I cry
Yes everyday I fall
Do you ever wonder why, why I love everythin' about you?
But everyday I say, "I'll try to make my heart be still"
'Til then every way there is to cry, ourselves to sleep we will
It picked me up, knocked me off my feet
I've got no way to explain
Still I love you, love you, love you but this fire inside
Will never see the light of day
So everyday goes by and everyday I fall
It makes me wonder why?
My life's worth nothing without you
But everyday I say, "I'll try to make my heart be still"
'Cos every way there is to cry ourselves to sleep, we will
You'll never know, no, no, no ,no ,no
You'll never know just how close we were
You'll never know, no, no, no ,no ,no
You'll never know
No you'll never see
The book closes and we try to forget
But I know that things won't change
How we feel, how life goes on
And that seems so strange
And so the light fades away
Try, try, try as I may
I can't stop thinkin' about you
It seems my life's worth nothing without you
But everyday I say, "I'll try to make my heart be still"
'Til then every way there is to cry, ourselves to sleep we will
Everyday, everyday, you know I try so hard
Everyday, everyday, it gets a little harder
Everyday, everyday, you know I try so hard
Could've given you everything that you need
but I cannot turn back the years.
The perfect love was all you wanted fromn me
but I cannot turn back the years.
So we have to be strong
and I'm finding that hard.
We have to move on
but no matter how hard I try.
If your heart's in pieces
you look for the truth.
And when I look deep down inside I know
it's too bad I love you.
Sometimes
hits me in the morning
hits me at night.
that I cannot turn back the yeas.
So I look out my windows
turn off my light.
But I cannot turn back the years.
Can't make it seem easy
when you're all that I see.
Can't live in a dream and I won't serenade the truth.
People are hurting and they're looking to me
and I look at you here's nothing more to say
it's too bad I love you.
But I'm never gonna give it up.
All that I lived for
all that I dreamed
but I cannot turn back the years.
You're the water I drink
you're the air that I breathe
but I cannot tun back the years.
So we have to be strong
and I'm finding that hard...
Don't Get Me Started
Don't get me started on politicians
And the lies they spread
Don't even mention sex and religion
And who they take to bed
But if you see me running down the street
Know where I'm running to
I'm tired of honesty being denied us
I'm coming looking for you
Don't hold me down, I'm on my way
And nothing's gonna turn me round
Don't turn around, give it to me straight
I'm on my way and nothing's gonna shake me
I'll hold my ground
Wild horses won't make me
Don't get me started on information
Magazines and T.V.
There's one man under his big umbrella
While it's raining on you and me
Everyday it's getting harder to judge
Fiction from fact
I'm tired of truth being denied me
It's mine and I want it back
Don't hold me down, I'm on my way
And nothing's gonna turn me round
Don't turn around, give it to me straight
I'm on my way and nothing's gonna shake me
I'll hold my ground
Wild horses won't make me
Business as usual in our pressure steamer
Where reality slips from view
They say that we can' take it
I think I can, can you?
Don't get me started on blood and thunder
With people flying blind
Not caring what or who they take with them
Or what they leave behind
It's one mans god against another
While the river of tears roll by
The things they do in the name of their father
Can someone tell me why
Don't hold me down, I'm on my way
And nothing's gonna turn me round
Don't turn around, give it to me straight
I'm on my way and nothing's gonna shake me
I'll hold my ground
Don't get me started

Staywith me,

Right here by my side if ever I need you
Oh my love
In your arms,
Ifeel so save and so secure
Everyday is such a perfect day to spend
Alone with you
I will follow you will you follow me
all the days and nights that we know will be
I will stay with you will you stay with me
Just one single tear in each passing year
With the dark
I see so very clearly now
All my fears are drifting by me so slowly now
Fading away
I can say
The night is long but you are there
Close at hand I´m better for the smile you give
And while I live
I will follow you will you follow me
All the days and nights that we know will be
I will stay with you will you stay with me
Just one single tear in each passing year

I will follow You ...
Come stop your crying

This bond between us
Can't be broken
I will be here
Don't you cry
'Cause you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more
You'll be in my heart
No matter what they say
You'll be here in my heart, always
Why can't they understand
the way we feel
They just don't trust
what they can't explain
I know we're different but,
deep inside us
We're not that different at all
And you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more
Don't listen to them
'Cause what do they know
We need each other,
to have, to hold
They'll see in time
I know
When destiny calls you
You must be strong
I may not be with you
But you've got to hold on
They'll see in time
I know
We'll show them together
'Cause you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on,
Now and forever more
Oh, you'll be in my heart
No matter what they say
You'll be in my heart, always
Always
I know she says she wants me
I hear it every day
And I know she know it keeps me
Well there ain't no other way
But she's got a heart
Must be made of stone
'Cos when I tell her that
She'll miss me when I'm gone
She says
"Who said I would?"
She knows it ain't easy
For a simple boy like me
She fills me full of loving
Oh, then she sets me free
But she's got a heart
Must be made of stone
'Cos when I tell her that
She'll miss me when I'm gone
She says
"Who said I would"?
Tell me, "Who said I would?
Who said I would?
(Who said I would?)
Who said I would?"
I'm not the only one but I do fine
I suit her purpose and I'm just her kind
I don't own her and I never could
Don't think I do, don't think I should
Tell me
"Who said I would?"
(Who said I would?)
Who said I would?
But she's got a heart
Must be made of stone
And when I tell her that
She'll miss me when I'm gone
She says
"You're not the only one, but you do fine
You suit my purpose and you're just my kind
You don't own me and you never could
Don't think you do, don't think you should"
Who said I would?
(Who said I would?)
Now she knows when she calls me
I'll come runnin' every time
And she knows she gets me hot
But she don't know it's her body never mine
And she's got a heart
Must be made of stone
'Cos when I tell her that
She'll miss me when I'm gone
She says
"Who said I would?"
Tell me, "Who said I would?
Who said I would?
Who said I would?"
Who said I would?
Who said I would?
(Who said I would?)
Baby, ev'rything is all right, uptight, out of sight
Baby, ev'rything is all right, uptight, out of sight.
I'm a poorman's son, from across the railroad tracks,
The only shirt I own is hangin' on my back,
But I'm the envy of ev'ry single guy
Since I'm the apple of my girl's eye.
When we go out stepping on the town for a while
My money's low and my suit's out of style,
But it's all right if my clothes aren't new
Out of sight because my heart is true.
She says baby ev'rything is alright, uptight, out of sight.
Baby, ev'rything is alright, uptight, clean out of sight.
She's a pearl of a girl, I guess that's what you might say,
I guess her folks brought her up that way,
The right side of the tracks, she was born and raised
In a great big old house, full of butlers and maids.
She says no one is better than I, I know I'm just an average guy,
No football hero or smooth Don Juan,
Got empty pockets, you see I'm a poorman's son.
She says give her the things that money can buy
But I'll never, never make my baby cry,
And it's all right, what I can't do,
Out of sight because my heart is true,
She says baby ev'rything is alright, uptight, clean out of sight.
Baby, ev'rything is alright, uptight, clean out of sight.
Baby, ev'rything is alright, uptight, ah ah ah ah,
Baby, ev'rything is alright, uptight, clean out of sight.
It must be love, I'm feeling
This must be love
Oh, this must be love, I'm feeling
This must be love
Well, I wait in every day, oh, just in case
You decide to call
And I can hardly wait
'Cause I never thought time could pass so slowly
It must be love, I'm feeling
This must be love
Oh, this must be love, I'm feeling
This must be love
Happiness is something I never thought I'd feel again
But now I know
It's you that I've been looking for
And day by day more and more
Well, I know what you think, you've heard it before
Don't tell me I know
But this feeling inside my heart
You know I'm never letting go, 'cause I think that
It must be love, I'm feeling
This must be love
Oh, this must be love, I'm feeling
This must be love
Words can only say so much
It's harder to express
The things you do to me
You're everything I could've ever dreamed you'd be
This must be love, I'm feeling
This must be love
Oh, this must be love, I'm feeling
This must be love
This must be love, I'm feeling
This must be love
Oh, this must be love, I'm feeling
This must be love
This must be love, I'm feeling
The roof is leakin' and the wind is howlin'
Kids are crying 'cause the sheets are so cold
I woke this mornin' found my hands were frozen
I've tried to fix the fire but you know the damn
thing's too old
It's been months now, since we heard from our Mary
I wonder if she ever made the coast
Well she and her young man they both moved out there
I sure hope they write just to let us know
And me, I'm getting stronger by the minute
My wife's expecting but I hope she can wait
'Cause this winter looks like, it's gonna be another
bad one
But spring'll soon be here oh, but I hope it's not late
Ma and pa lived here and their's before them
They tried their hardest to make it a home
Seems so long now since they passed over
Hope my children'll try to make it their own
Now my roof is leakin' and the wind is howlin'
The kids are cryin', 'cos the sheets are so cold
I woke this mornin' and my hands were frozen
Oh I've tried to fix the fire but you know the damn
thing's too old
But me, oh I'm getting stronger by the minute
My wife's expecting but I hope she can wait
'Cause this winter looks like it's gonna be another bad
I want to talk about my baby, yeah yeah
With her pretty smile, yeah yeah
She's 'bout to drive me crazy, yeah yeah
Makes my heart beat wild
So everybody say, yeah, yeah yeah
Everybody say, yeah, yeah yeah
Everybody say, yeah, yeah yeah
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah

There's no questions about maybe
For her I'd make any sacrifice
So everybody say, yeah, yeah yeah
Everybody say, yeah, yeah yeah
Everybody say, yeah, yeah yeah

And when she walks that walk
I can't help but feel that she's for real
And when she talks that talk
I can't quite explain just how I feel
Talking about my baby
I want to talk about my baby, yeah yeah
To me she's everything, yeah yeah
She might fuss and called you lazy
But to her I'm still the king
So everybody say, yeah, yeah yeah
Everybody say, yeah, yeah yeah
Everybody say, yeah, yeah yeah
I know you're leaving me behind
I'm seeing you, darling, for the very last time
Show a little tenderness before you go
Please let me feel your embrace once more
Take me in your arms, come on and rock me, and rock me a little while
Hold me darling, rock me, rock me a little while
We all must feel heartache sometime
Right now, right now, now, I'm feeling mine
I tried my best to be strong, but I'm not able
I'm like a helpless child wrapped in a cradle
Let me know joy before I grieve
Just once more, darling, before you leave
Take me in your arms, come on and rock me, and rock me a little while
Hold me darling, rock me, rock me a little while
I'm losing you and my happiness
My life is over, I must confess
I'll never, never see your smiling face no more
I'll never, never hear your knock on my door
Before you leave me, leave me behind
Please let me feel happy just one more time
Take me in your arms, come on and rock me, and rock me a little while
Hold me darling, and rock me, rock me a little while
I said I never wouldn't beg, I said I wouldn't plead
Here I am, baby, begging you please
Baby, baby, please, baby, baby, please
Baby, take me in your arms
Come on and rock me, and rock me a little while
Whatever you do, I'll do it too
Show me everything and tell me how
It all means something
And yet nothing to me
I can see there's so much to learn
It's all so close and yet so far
I see myself as people see me
Oh, I just know there's something
bigger out there
I wanna know, can you show me
I wanna know about these
strangers like me
Tell me more, please show me
Something's familliar about these stransgers like me
Every gesture, every moe that she makes
Makes me feel like never before
Why do I have
This growing need to be beside her
Ooo, these emotions I never knew
Of some other world far beyond this place
Beyond the trees, aboe the clouds
I see before me a new horizon
I wanna know, can you show me
I wanna know about these strangers like me
Tell me more, please show me
Something's familiar about these strangers like me
Come with me now to see my world
Where there's beauty beyond your dreams
Can you feel the things I feel
Right now, with you
Take my hand
There's a world I need to know
I wanna know, can you show me
I wanna know about these strangers like me
Tell me more, please show me
Something's familiar about these strangers like me
Oh, the power to be strong
And the wisdom to be wise
All these things willcome to you in time
On this journey that you're making
There'll be answers that you'll seek
And it's you who'll climb the mountain
It's you who'll reach the peak
Son of Man, look to the sky
Lift your spirit, set it free
Some day you'll walk tall with pride
Son of Man, a man in time you'll be
Though there's no one there to guide you
No one to take your hand
But with faith and understanding
You will journey from boy to man
Son of Man, look to the sky
Lift your spirit, set it free
Some day you'll walk tall with pride
Son of Man, a man in time you'll be
In learning you will teach
And teaching you will learn
You'll find your place beside the
ones you love
Oh, and all the things you dreamed of
The visions that you saw
Well, the time is drawing near now
It's yours toclaim it all
Son of Man, look to the sky
Lift your spirit, set it free
Some day you'll walk tall with pride
Son of Man, a man in time you'll be
Son of Man
We had a life, we had a love
But you don't know what you've got 'til you lose it
Well, that was then and this is now
And I want you back
How many times can I say I'm sorry
How many times

You're all I need, let me show you
They say you can't take it with you
When you go and I believe it

Here with you, you know

We had a life, we had a love
But you don't know what you've got 'til you lose it
Well that was then and this is now

You're all I need, please, believe in me
Darlin', darlin'
If I could have you to call my very own
I work my fingers through the bone, I am alone
To you I'd always come home
'Cause there's something about you, baby
That makes me keep loving you
There's something about you, baby
Makes me love you just a little bit more
Truly does, just a little bit more
Sweet sweet thing, I'm satisfied
Sweet sweet thing, you set my soul on fire
I need you, yeah, badly
No matter what price I have to pay
'Cause without you, darlin', I'd worry hard
I love you anyway
'Cause there's something about you, baby
That makes me keep loving you
There's something about you, baby
Makes me love you just a little bit more
Truly does, just a little bit more
Sweet sweet thing, I'm satisfied
Sweet sweet thing, you're my only desire
I'm just your puppet on a string
And tears sometimes it brings
But do me any way you wanna when you wanna
I'll keep you just the same
'Cause there's something about you, baby
That makes me keep loving you
There's something about you, baby
Makes me love you just a little bit more
Truly does, just a little bit more
You're a real heartbreaker
You will never let me sit down
There's something about you, baby
That shakes me all up inside
You're a real heartbreaker
You gotta give me some
Give me some of your lovin'
You gotta give me some of your lovin'
Now I'm not a greedy girl
I don't need the world
(Just give me some)
Some of your lovin' now, oh, oh, oh, oh
Now I don't expect you to guarantee
Your faith and devotion to only me
I'm aware you got a lot of wild oats to sow
But baby when I need you
Don't you tell me no
You gotta give me some
(Give me some of your lovin')
Oh yes you do now
You gotta give me some of your lovin'
Now I'm not a jealous child
My demands are mild
(Just give me some)
Some of your lovin' now, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I know a man likes to feel that he's been around
Before he decides to settle down
I've no doubt
Some day you're gonna feel that way too
But baby, just remember
(Until you do)
You gotta give me some
(Give me some of your lovin')
Oh yes you do now
I mean to tell you
(You gotta give me some)
Of your lovin'
Now I'm not a greedy girl
I don't need the world
(Just give me some)
Some of your lovin' now, oh oh, oh, oh
You gotta give me some, some of your lovin'
I mean to tell you
(You gotta give me some of your lovin')
Oh, don't forget about me now
I mean to tell you, oh
Ah, you gotta give me some of your lovin'
I was lying awake last night waiting for your call
But if the rumors are true, I won’t bother you at all
I’m trying hard to understand
What it takes to be your man
Now I don’t have to wonder anymore
The least you can do is say you’re sorry
The least you can do is give me back my heart
Just give me back my heart
Seems living in hope was wrong those years I was away
Thinking you’re lest I never received had gone astray
You said you’d always be there for me
Like a fool I thought you’d be
Now I don’t know what I was thinking at all
But the least you can do is say you’re sorry girl
The least you can do is give me back me heart
I won’t come around no more
You won’t find me standing outside you’re door
The least you can do is tell me why
Tell me why
Oh oh
The least you can do is say you’re sorry girl
The least you can do is give me back my heart
I won’t come around no more
You won’t find me standing outside you’re door
The least you can do is tell me why
I won’t be fool anymore
And there’s no need to be cruel anymore
No no, no, no, no, no
The least you can do is say you’re sorry girl
Jimmy, Jimmy, oh Jimmy Mack, when are you coming back?
Jimmy, Jimmy, oh Jimmy Mack, when are you coming back?
My arms are missing you, my lips feel the same way too
I tried so hard to be true, like I promised I'd do
But this boy keeps coming around, he's trying to wear my resistance down
[Chorus:]
Hey Jimmy, Jimmy, oh Jimmy Mack, when are you coming back
Jimmy, Jimmy, oh Jimmy Mack, when are you coming back
He calls me on the phone, about three times a day
Now my heart's just listening to what he has to say
But this loneliness that I have within keeps reaching out to be his friend
[Chorus]
Need your loving, need your loving
[Instrumental break]
I wanna say, I'm not getting any stronger, I can't hold out very much longer
Trying hard to be true, but Jimmy, he talks just as sweet as you
[Chorus]
Need your loving, need your loving
Need your loving, need your loving...
(Jimmy, Jimmy, oh Jimmy Mack, when are you coming back)
Gently rolling father time
He's calling to him now
Though he hears him
He looks out to see
Some where out there lie his dreams
The story with no ending
Until he finds his answers
He won't be going nowhere
For him it's not too late
It's not too late
For some it's never too late
Quietly knockin' on her door
He patiently stands waiting
And though she hears him
She sits there fast in her chair
Some where out there never seen
Her hopes and dreams lie waiting
Until she finds an answer
She won't be going nowhere
For her it's not too late
It's not too late
For some it's never too late
For everything we know that's certain
There is much we cannot see
So we choose to close the curtain
Never knowing what could have been
It's not too late
No it's not too late
It's never too late
Slowly rockin' the baby's bed
He stokes it's head and whispers
Though it hears him
It keeps smiling and kicks it's feet
Cos somewhere out there is a life
A lifetime made for living
So it holds on fast
It ain't going nowhere
For some it's not too late
It's not too late
When I opened your letter yesterday
I could not believe my eyes
Cause I've already given
all I have to give
And I think it must
have slipped your mind
But I remember not so long ago
I gave it all, it's gone
And I gave it all to you
Now I'm living on borrowed
time, but it's mine
(chorus)
Oh did you hear me?
I cannot believe it's true
Are you really doing
the things you do?
No I cannot believe
it's you, really you
Oh these people I'm
talking to don't understand
They don't seem to realize
They're listening but
they're not hearing me
They're being too cruel to be kind
Any kind of feeling
that I had is gone
Cause I gave it all, it's gone
And I gave it all to you
Now I'm living on borrowed
time, but it's mine
(chorus)
Over and over I
keep on telling myself
Over and over I
hope I'm gonna make up
Over and over I
know it's really happening
And there's nothing
that I can say
Cause nothing can change
all the things that
you've done to me
Nothing can make me stay
Oh cause you know
I cannot believe it's true
Are you really doing
the things you do?
No I cannot believe
it's you, really you
I know it's a crying shame
it's all the same to you
It seems all so well laid out
but I cannot get through
never meant it to show
It started happening
that's all you know.
Oh I gave it all to you
Now I'm living on borrowed
time, but it's mine
(chorus)
Over and over I
keep on telling myself
Over and over I
hope i'm gonna make up
But over and over I
know it's really happening
And there's nothing
that I can say
Cause nothing can change all
the things that you do to me
Nothing can make me stay
Cause you know
I cannot believe it's true
Are you really doing
the things you do?
No I cannot believe
PHIL COLLINS – Great Spirits
When the earth was young and the air was sweet
And the mountains kissed the sky
In the far beyond with its mended hearts
Man and nature lived side by side
But great wisdom does not come without learning
And great vision not only with our eyes
So we can think that we see, truly see all around us
But when we look, do we see with open minds
Great spirits of all who lived before
Take our hands and lead us
Fill our hearts and souls with all you know
The key to understanding
Is to see through others’ eyes
Find a way to help us see from all sides
Truly see from all sides
Teach our children to look deeper than the surface
And see the world through another’s eyes
For to be blind beyond yourself is to look but not seeing
Knowing much is not enough to be wise
To see the wonder in all we’ve been given
In our world it’s not always as it seems
On the path that we choose, turn every corner
Follow on, for another begins
Great spirits of all who lived before
Take our hands and lead us
Fill our hearts and souls with all you know
The key to understanding
Is to see through others’ eyes
Find a way to help us see from all sides
Truly see from all sides
Oh great spirits of all who lived before
Take our hands and lead us
Fill our hearts and souls with all you know
The key to understanding
Is to see through others’ eyes
Find a way to help us see from all sides
Truly see from all sides
They came at night
leaving fear behind shadows along the ground.
nobody knew where to find him
no evidence was found.
I'm never coming back
they heard him cry and I believe him.
Well
he never meant to do anything wrong
It's gonna get worse if he waits too long.
Billy
Billy
don't you lose my number
'Cos you're not anywhere that I can find you.
Oh no
Billy
Billy
don't you lose my number
'Cos you're not anywhere that I can find you.
Searching through the day and into the night
They wouldn't stop till they found him.
They didn't know him and they didn't understand
They never asked him why.
Get out of my way
they heard him shout
then a blinding light
And all they could see was him
running down the street
Out of the shadows and into the night.
Billy
Billy
don't you lose my number
. . .
don't give up
keep running
keep hiding.
Don't give up
Billy
if you know you're right.
Don't give up
you know that I am on your side.
Don't give up
oh Billy
you better
you better
You better run for your life.
Billy
Billy
don't you lose my number

they came at night
leaving fear behind shadows along the ground. . . .
Oh Billy

don't you lose my number
PHIL COLLINS – Don’t Let Him Steal Your Heart Away
You were lonely and you needed a friend
And he was there at the right time with the right smile
Just a shoulder to lean on, someone to tell you it’ll all work out alright
Don’t let him steal your heart away
No, don’t let him steal your heart away
Don’t let him steal your heart away
No, don’t let him steal your heart away
You can look at him the way you did me
And hold him close, say you’ll never let him go
But any fool can see you’re fooling yourself, but you ain’t fooling me
So don’t let him steal your heart away
No, don’t let him steal your heart away, no
And don’t pack my suitcase, I’ll be back
Don’t take my pictures off of the wall, oh, d’ya hear me
Don’t let him change a thing cos I’ll be back
Just tell him to pack his things and be out of your life
And just give me one more chance, I’ll show you I’m right, I’m right
Cos I’ve been thinking and I know it was me
Leaving you lonely and hoping you could be strong
But can you look at me straight, tell me what else can I do
But say I was wrong
So don’t let him steal your heart away
No, don’t let him steal your heart away
Well he’s gonna try and make it work for you
Make you think your whole life’s been leading to this
But whatever you do, think about me, oh and don’t be fooled by his kiss
And don’t let him steal your heart away
Please don’t let him steal your heart away
And don’t pack my suitcase, I’ll be back
And don’t take my picture off of your wall, d’ya hear me
Don’t let him change a thing cos I’ll be back
Just tell him to pack his things and be out of your life
And just give me one more chance, I’ll show you I’m right, you know I’m right
Cos you were lonely and you needed a friend
And he was there at the right time with the right smile
Just a shoulder to lean on, someone to say ‘don’t you worry, it’ll all be alright’
But he’s no good for you
He’ll make you think your whole life’s been leading to this
And whatever you do, think about me, oh and don’t be fooled by his kiss
Oh no, no, no
And don’t let him steal your heart away, your heart away
Don’t let him take it, don’t let him steal your heart away from me
We never talked about it
But I hear the blame was mine
I had called you up to say, "I'm sorry"
But I wouldn't wanna waste your time
'Cause I love you but I can't take any more
There's a look I can't describe in your eyes
We could try like we've tried before
Would you keep on telling me those lies?
Do you lie?
Tell me do you remember?
There seemed no way to make up
Because it seemed your mind was set
And the way you looked and told me
That's a look I know I'll never forget
You could've come over to my side
You could've let me know
You could've tried to see that distance between us
But it seemed too far for you to go
So tell me do you remember?
Tell me do you remember?
Through all of my life
In spite of all the pain
You know people are funny sometimes
'Cause they just can't wait to get hurt again
Tell me do you remember?
Ohh the one
There are things we won't recall
And feelings we'll never find
It's taken so long to see it
'Cause we never seemed to have the time
There was always something more important to do
More important to say
And "I love you" wasn't one of those things
And now it's too late
Tell me do you remember?
Tell me do you remember?
Just tell me now, tell me now
Just tell me now, tell me now
Tell me do you remember?
Do you? Do you? Do you? Do you?
Do you remember?
Do you remember?
Do you remember? Now it's over
Do you remember? Ooh it's over
Here I am on bended knees
I lay my heart down at your feet
Now do I love you
All you have to do is ask
I'll give until there's nothing left
Do I love you
As long as there is life in me
Your happiness is guaranteed
I'll fill your heart with ecstasy, forever darling
Do I love you?
Do I love you?
Do I love you?
Indeed I do Indeed I do
The very thing that I want most
Is just to have and hold you close
Do I love you?
From early morning until late at night
You fill my heart with pure delight
Do I love you?
Whenever I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord your soul to keep
And bring you home safe to me, for ever darling
Do I love you?
Do I love you?
Do I love you?
Indeed I do, sweet darling, indeed I do
Now whenever I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord your soul to keep
And bring you home safe to me
For ever darling
Do I love you?
Do I love you?
Do I love you?
Where has my love gone?
How can I go on?
It seems dear love has gone away
Where is my spirit?
I'm nowhere near it,
Oh yes, my love has gone astray
But I'll blame it on the sun,
The sun that didn't shine,
I'll blame it on the wind and the trees
I'll blame it on the time that never was enough,
I'll blame it on the tide and the sea,
But, my heart blames it on me
Who poured the love out?
What made this bitter doubt?
Is peace not here for me to see?
Wish I could tell you,
What I am feeling,
But, words won't come for me to speak
But I'll blame it on the sun,
That didn't fill the sky,
I'll blame it on the birds and the trees
I'll blame it on the day that ended once too soon,
I'll blame it on the nights that could not be,
But, my heart blames it on me
Yeh, yeh, yeh, ooh,
Just set your sight high
Look 'em right in the eye and take it
And make a big, big, big noise
Don't ask why
Just take it wise and making it
Make that a big, big, big, big noise
You can feel it in the air
Feel it everywhere
There's a spirit moving
At just look, it's all around you
Just take a look around you people, stars [Unverified] to lose it
'Cause if you wanted you gotta go get it
Just to listen up
If there's something that you need
You better believe
Just set your sight high
Look 'em right in the eye and take it
And make a big, big, big noise
Don't ask why
Just take it wise and making it
Make that a big, big, big, big noise
Better make your play
Don't let her think like right or wrong, get it
'Cause there's nothing to it if you just
If you reach out and do it, it'll be okay
Just catch yourself a piece of the action
Just to listen up
If there's something that you need
You better believe
Just set your sight high
Look 'em right in the eye and take it
And make a big, big, big noise
Don't ask why
Just take it wise and making it
Make that a big, big, big, big noise
'Cause if you wanted you gotta go get it
Just to listen up
If there's something that you need
You better believe
Just set your sight high
Look 'em right in the eye and take it
And make a big, big, big noise
Don't ask why
Just take it wise and making it
I held the book so tightly in my hands
I saw your picture, heard you call my name
It was strange I could not look away
I had to be there, I wanted to go
You gave me no reason, you gave me no warning
But I was with you, by your side
Give me the strength, so I can help you
And I can be strong now, they don't frighten me
It's written in the book
The sun is hotter than before, but inside it's cold, I
wonder why
But if the fire within your heart can beat the storm
Well I believe we can make it right
It's time now, to show our feelings
Looking through you, your heart's empty
Whatever happened to you, you can't change it
No where to run to, please, oh please don't let me down
But wait a minute I don't understand
It's getting stronger, hold my hand
Don't want to leave you I don't want to go
But I'm a' losing all control
Can't you see me I'm slipping away
I can only stay if you've the will
To keep me here, oh Lord
It's written in the book
I held the book so tightly in my hands
I saw your picture, heard you call my name
Oh and even though we never, never touched
She calls out to the man on the street
"Sir, can you help me?
It's cold and I've nowhere to sleep
Is there somewhere you can tell me?"
He walks on, doesn't look back
He pretends he can't hear her
He starts to whistle as he crosses the street
She's embarrassed to be there
Oh, think twice, it's just another day for
For you and me in paradise
Oh, think twice, it's just another day
For you, you and me in paradise
Just think about it
She calls out to the man on the street
He can see she's been cryin'
She's got blisters on the soles of her feet
She can't walk but she's tryin'
Oh, just think twice, it's just another day
For you and me in paradise
Oh, yes think twice, it's just another day
For you, you and me in paradise
Just think about it, just think about it
Oh Lord, is there nothing more anybody can do?
Oh Lord, there must be something you can say
You can tell by the lines on her face
You can see that she's been there
Probably been moved on from every place
'Cause she didn't fit in there
Oh, yes think twice, it's just another day
For you and me in paradise
Oh, yes think twice, it's just another day
For you, you and me in paradise
Just think about it, just think about it
It's just another day
For you and me in paradise
It's just another day
For you and me in paradise
It's just another day
For you and me in paradise
It's just another day
For you and me in paradise
It's just another day
For you and me
It's another day
For you and me
It's another day
For you and me in paradise
In paradise
You've been in love that little bit too long
You've been in love and I think that you know
You've been in love it's time to move on
You've been in love and it's starting to show
She's getting to used to your face, getting too used to your smile
She's saying the same things every morning before you leave her
You'd better run, find out what's going through her mind
You'd better look out, cos he's not far behind
You've been in love that little bit too long
You've been in love and I think that you know
You've been in love it's time to move on
You've been in love and it's starting to show
Suddenly she's trying to please you, you start to think she's acting strange
And after all these years she wears make-up in the morning
You'd better run, find out what's going through her mind
You'd better look out, cos he's not far behind
Did you really believe she's doing it all for you?
Oh, can't you see, there's somebody else
You never showed it, you should have known it
You've been in love, yeah you've been in love
You've been in love, yeah you've been in love
Going round singing all those love songs, songs you haven't heard for years
You're gonna have to ask her why she's so happy
You'd better run, find out what's going through her mind
But it may be too late, and I know why
You've been in love that little bit too long
You've been in love and I think that you know
You've been in love it's time to move on
You've been in love and it's starting to show
You've been in love that little bit too long
You've been in love, I think that you know
You've been in love it's time to move on
You've been in love and it's starting to show
To show, show, you've been in love, oh oh
Somewhere down the road, you're gonan find a place
It seems so far, but it never is
You won't need to stay, but you might lose your strength
on the way
Sometimes you may feel you're the only one
Cos all the things you thought were safe, now they're gone
But you won't be alone, I'll be here to carry you along
Watching you 'til all your work is done
Whe nyou find your heart, you'd better run with it
Cos when she comes along, she could be breaking it
No there's nothing wrong, you're learning to be strong
Don't look back
She may soon be gone, no don't look back
She's not the only one, remember that
If your heart is beating fast, then you know she's right
If you don't know what to say, well, that's all right
You don't know what to do?
Remember she is just as scared as you
Don't be shy, even when it hurts to say
Remember, you're gonna get hurt someday, anyway
Then you must lift your head, keep it there
Remember what I said
I'll always be with you don't forget
Just look over your shoulder I'll be there.
Please come out tonight I need you here
its been a long, long time and I can't wait
let's find out,, let's see what it's like out there
if it rains we'll find somewhere, somewhere dry and warm
You'll say "my, it's been a long, long time"
I'll say "how are you? I've been fine"
Please come out tonight, let's go out and see the world
we can try to find, find somewhere
it seems so long ago, I can hardly remember the time
it's all I want, it's all I want, so let's see what we find
You'll say "there's so much you need to know"
I'll say "are you really sure you have to go?"
We don't need a reason, no explanations
just stay with me here, tonight
I won't say a word
I just need you here
Please come out tonight, let's go out and find ourselves
you can lean your head on my shoulder, remember?
You'll say "My, is that the time?"
I'll say "why not stay with me tonight?"
We don't need a reason
it's so warm inside
there's no one between us
if someone comes we can hide
just lay here beside me
just see what it's like
Just as I thought I'd make it
You walk back into my life
Just like you never left
Just as I'd learned to be lonely
You call up to tell me
You're not sure if you're ready
Oh ready or not, you'll take what you've got and leave
Leave me alone with my heart
Putting the pieces back together again
Just leave, oh leave me alone with my dreams
I can do without you, know what I mean
I wish I could write a love song
To show you the way I feel
Seems you don't like to listen
Oh like it or not, and take what you've got and leave
Oh leave me alone with my heart
It's broken in two when I'm not, I'm not thinking too
straight
Just leave, oh leave me alone with my dreams
I need love, love
Oh, ease my mind
And I need to find time
Someone to call mine
My mama said, "You can't hurry love
No, you'll just have to wait"
She said, "Love don't come easy
But it's a game of give and take"
You can't hurry love
No, you'll just have to wait
Just trust in a good time
No matter how long it takes
How many heartaches must I stand
Before I find the love to let me live again
Right now the only thing that keeps me hanging on
When I feel my strength, oh, it's almost gone
I remember mama said, "You can't hurry love
No, you'll just have to wait"
She said, "Love don't come easy
It's a game of give and take"
How long must I wait
How much more must I take
Before loneliness
Will cause my heart, heart to break
No, I cant bear to live my life alone
I grow impatient for a love to call my own
But when I feel that I, I can't go on
Well, these precious words keep me hanging on
I remember mama said, "You can't hurry love
No, you'll just have to wait"
She said, "Love don't come easy
Well, it's a game of give and take"
You can't hurry love
No, you'll just have to wait
Just trust in a good time
No matter how long it takes, now break
Now love, love don't come easy
But I keep on waiting
Anticipating for that soft voice
To talk to me at night
For some tender arms
Hold me tight
I keep waiting
Oh, till that day
But it ain't easy
(Love don't come easy)
No, you know it ain't easy
My mama said, "You can't hurry love
No, you'll just have to wait"
She said, "Love don't come easy
But it's a game of give and take"
You can't hurry love
No, you'll just have to wait
She said, "Love don't come easy

She came looking for me with her arms open wide,
like some long lost friend of mine.
She said, "Excuse me, but do you remember me?"
I said, "No, I don't believe I do"
So she looked me up and down,
and undressed me with her eyes,
Then she said "You've got everything I need, you've got everything I want"
So I said "OK,
you can wear my hat,
you can have my coat,
you can take my shirt
'cos I don't need it.
You can wear my shoes,
you can take my socks,
come on take my bag it's yours
If you love it,
you can have it if you love it,
ain't no problem if you love it,
come on take it if you love it."
So her friend came up to me
with a pen and paper in her hand,
expressing some interest in the number of my room,
She said, "Excuse me, but do you remember me?"
I said "No." She said "Can I appeal to you?"
So I looked her up and down
and, realising her insinuations, I blushed
she said "Listen, babe, you don't know me,
no you don't know me but you owe me,
and I love you,
yes I love you,
put your arms around me 'cos I love you,
I got all your records and I love you"
So I suggested
"You can wear my hat,
you can have my coat,
you can take my shirt
'cos I don't need it.
You can wear my shoes,
you can take my socks,
come on take my bag it's yours
If you love it,
you can have it if you love it,
ain't no problem if you love it,
come on take it if you love it."
Well later on that day this guy came to me
with a scrap of paper in his hand
He said, "Hey buddy, can you sign your name for me?"
I said, "Why, do I owe you money?" He said, "No"
I said, "Listen pal, do I know you? Have we ever met?
Why do you want my name on this little piece of paper?"
He said, "I love you,
I don't know you but I love you,
like my brother I love you,
put your arms around me 'cos I love you"
I said, "Hey let's not rush things.
you can wear my hat,
you can have my coat,
you can take my shirt
'cos I don't need it.
You can wear my shoes,
you can take my socks,
come on take my bag it's yours
If you love it,
you can have it if you love it,
ain't no problem if you love it,
come on take it if you love it.
You can wear my hat,
You can wear my hat,
You can wear my hat,
When I grow up to be a man
Like my father was when I was young
I hope I can make him so proud of me
Proud enough to call me his son, oh yeah
What makes these people so different now
What makes these times so strange?
Seems most people got most everything they need
How come we see this change?
Our sons and daughters seem to be beyond our control
Their smile is fading fast, they're losing their soul
When will we ever learn, yet I'm a believer
When I was a boy, did we have more respect?
This world seemed a nicer place to be
But time slowly passes and one day you look around
You hardly recognize what you see
Our sons and daughters seem to be beyond our control
Their smile is fading fast, they're losing their soul
Now when will we ever learn, but I'm a believer
They're beyond your control
We're all sons of our fathers
Sometimes I feel like mine
I can hear him say, the things I say
Seems all things come around in time, oh
Why these things happen we'll never know?
Guess that was then and this is now
We always knew that change was gonna come
But I want to go back, please tell me how
Our sons and daughters seem to be beyond our control
Their smile is fading fast and they're losing their soul
When will we ever learn, yet I'm a believer, oh yeah
We said goodbye to a dear old friend
And we packed our bags and left feeling sad
It's the only way
We said hello as we turned the key
A new roof over our heads
Gave a smile
It's the only way
Only way
Turn your head
And don't look back
Set your sails for a new horizon
Don't turn around don't look down
Oh there's life across the tracks
And you know it's really not surprising
It gets better when you get there oh
Well it really don't matter much where you are
Cos home is in your heart
It's a feeling that you wake with one day
Some people key p running all their life
And still find they haven't gone too far
They don't see it's the feeling inside - the feeling inside oh
Turn your head and don't look back
Just set your sails for a new horizon
Don't turn around don't look down
Oh there's life across the tracks
And you know it's really not surprising
It gets better when you get there
We said hello as we turned the key
A new roof over our heads
Well, there was no reason to believe she'd always be there
But if you don't put faith in what you believe in
It's getting you nowhere
Cos it hurts, you never let go
Don't look down, just look up
Cos she's always there to behind you, just to remind you
Two hearts, believing in just one mind
You know we're two hearts believing in just one mind
Cos there's no easy way to, to understand it
There's so much of my life in her, and it's like I'm blinded
And it teaches you to never let go
There's so much love you'll never know
She can reach you no matter how far
Wherever you are
Two hearts, believing in just one mind
Beating together till the end of time
You know we're two hearts believing in just one mind
Together forever till the end of time
She knows (she scores)
There'll always be a special place in my heart for her
She knows, she knows, she knows
Yeah, she knows (she knows)
No matter how far apart we are
She knows, I'm always right there beside her

I never thought I'd ever get tired of playing games
But I've been holding back for too long
Now the time has come to get it right
Now's the time to show them all that they're wrong
'Cos they said thunder and they said lightning
It would never strike twice
Oh but if that's true, why can't you tell me
How come this feels so nice, Oh it feels alright
Never ever did believe in guiding lights
'Cos what you didn't hold, slipped away
Oh but there's a feeling deep down in my shoe
'Cos things look like they're going my way
'Cos they say thunder and they say lightning
It would never strike twice
Oh but if that's true, why can't you tell me
How come this feels so nice, Oh it feels alright
I never ever did believe in a second chance
You get, just one crack of the whip, that's all
If you played the game, you got treated right
Oh but I'm not playing the game, no more
'Cos they say thunder and they say lightning
It would never strike twice
Oh but if that's true, why can't you tell me
I can hear through these walls
I can hear it when they're foolin' around
I can hear through these walls and
I hear every sign, every sound
I can hear through these walls
In the dark with the shades pulled down
Every word that they say
Every move they make feels it's coming my way
My favorite moment putting the glass up next to the wall
Imagination though I see nothing, I hear it all
Putting my sign up do not disturb me, speak or shout, inside out
Oh when my clothes, they're all laid out
I can see through my windows
I can see the girls and the boys
I can see through my windows and
I can imagine the noise
I can see through my windows
I can see them playing with toys
Oh I hope it won't end
If I promise not to touch, just be a friend
Life is so lonely and I don't get high off just being me
I like pretending wanting to touch them, wanting to see
It's only normal creeping behind you, now don't shout, 'cause it's alright
They keep the windows locked and the door shut tight
Oo I'm feeling like I'm locked in a cage no way in, no way out
And it gets so lonely am I really asking a lot
Just to reach out and touch somebody?
'Cause when I look through my windows or open my door
I can feel it all around me
And I can hear through these walls
I can hear it when they're foolin' 'round
I can hear through these walls
I can hear every sight, every sound
I can hear through these walls
In the dark with the shades pulled down
And every word that they say
Every noise they make feels it's coming my way
Ah yeah
Ah yeah
Ah yeah
So here we are together
just you and me
sitting side by side
don't know why
with time just racing by
but I don't want to go
Well I don't know much about it
'cos all I am is what you see
in front of you
there's no more
feels so close and yet so far
but I don't want to go
Here I am, take my hand
here I am, please take my hand
I'd like to sit here with you if that's all right
if you don't mind I could sit and stare all night
sit here waiting for you to hold me tight
It's sad but I know it's true
you see I know you well
you'd only laugh at me
and that would hurt me so
just look at me here
you've got me pleading with you
but I don't want to go
'Cos you know that I love you so
yes you know that I love you so
Here, I will be here love
for you love, I will always be here love
If you look real close
you'll see my heart is on my sleeve
and it'll be here waiting
waiting for you, waiting for me
someone once said that if you truly, truly believe
you can make things happen
make things appear to be all that they seem
tell me do you believe?
We'll find a hideaway
together we'll find a way
somewhere, somehow, we'll find some way
there must be somewhere
there must be someplace
we can find somewhere
where they don't know my face
believe me we can find it
yes we can find it
somewhere, there's a place for us
somewhere, a time and a place for us
Come gather 'round, people, wherever you roam,
And admit that the waters around you have grown,
And accept it that, soon,
You'll be drenched to the bone.
If your time to you is worth saving,
Then you'd better start swimming,
Or you will sink like a stone,
For the times, they are a-changin'.
Come, writers and critics who prophecise with your pen,
And keep your eyes wide. The chance won't come again.
And don't speak too soon
'Cause the wheel's still in spin
And there's no telling who that it's naming.
For the loser now will be later to win,
For the times, they are a-changin'.
Come, senators, congressmen, please heed the call.
Don't you dare stand in the doorways.
Don't you block off the hall.
For he that gets hurt will be he who has stalled.
There's a battle outside and it's raging.
It'll soon shake your windows and rattle your walls,
For the times, they are a-changin'.
Yes, they are a-changin'.
Come, mothers and fathers throughout the land,
Oh, and don't you dare criticize
What you cannot understand.
Your sons and your daughters,
They're beyond your command.
Well, your old road is rapidly aging.
Please get out of the new one
If you cannot lend a hand,
For the times, they are a-changin'.
Oh, the line, it is drawn. The curse, it is cast.
And you know the slow one now will later be fast,
As the present now will later be past.
Well, the order is rapidly fading.
And the first one now will later be last,
For the times, they are a-changin'.
Yes, they're a-changin'.
Come gather 'round, gather 'round.
Come gather 'round, people, wherever you roam,
And accept it that, soon,
You will be drenched to the bone.
Then you better start swimming,
Or you're gonna sink like a stone,
When the daylight comes and I look across the room,
I see you're gone.
As the morning breaks and I reach to hold your hand
I can see, see I'm the only one.
Well, your clothes are gone and your bags are packed
but the bed's still warm where you lay
now I need your love to come shining through
to carry me, come carry me away.
If you choose a time, I'll catch the moon
I'll see you there
from wherever I am, wherever you are
we'll find somewhere.
I see the same stars in the same sky
shining down on you,
I'll be looking up from wherever I am
and it's you I'll see if you're looking too.
There'll be days that'll seem much longer,
some nights will seem so cold,
and it's gotta come soon - please don't be too long,
don't be too long.
If you choose a time, we can catch the moon
I'll see you there
Whenever it is, from wherever you are
oh we'll find, yes we'll find somewhere.
I remember the night you weren't at home
(had to work late is what I heard)
That's what you said
I can never forget the way it felt,
you needed some time to work it out,
that's what you said
and now I feel a fool.
'Cos late at night I call your name,
I'm wondering what for,
'cos I've seen those other guys
sniffin' around your door.
Whatever happened to the words
'Lovers for all eternity?'
That's what you said,
I was your rome, you were my Juliet,
eternally
that's what you said
and now I feel a fool.
'Cos late at night I hear your voice
calling out my name,
oh I know it's just a dream
but every night's the same.
I carried a torch for you, through the thick and thin
you know it don't seem right that I won't see you again
No no
Late at night I call your name,
I'm wondering what for,
'cos I keep seeing those other guys
sniffin' around your door.
I carried a torch for you through the wind and rain
I'll never forget you, but I won't see you again
No no
I thought your friends all liked me
I thought I fitted in just right,
that's what you said.
Soon I'll be gone and you'll be free,
you can go find the things that you want.
That's what you said
and I won't feel a fool
'cos late at night I still call your name,
I'm wondering what for,
'cos I keep seeing those other guys
sniffin' around your door.
All day long he was fighting for you
And he didn't even know your name
Young men come and young men go
But life goes on just the same
And I don't know why
Why do we keep holding on
I don't know why
Pretending to be oh so strong
Oh why
Is there something I don't know
Or something very wrong, with you and me
or maybe
That's the way it is, there's nothing I can do,
That's just the way it is.
They've been waiting for word to come down
They've been waiting for you night and day
They won't wait any longer for you
It may already be too late
And I don't know why...
You see the dying, you feel the pain
What have you got to say
If we agree that we can disagree
We could stop all of this today
It's been your life for as long as you can remember
But you cannot fight no more
You must want to look your son in the eyes
When he asks you what you did it for
'Cos all day long he was fighting for you
And he didn't even know your name
Young men come and young men go
But life goes on just the same
Well I've been waiting so long
I've been waiting so patiently
Out of the blue you call
You're leaving him to be with me now
Now maybe I'm right, or maybe I'm wrong
Oh, I gotta know now
I'll take what you got, so you'd better hold on
You'd better believe it
Cos that's how I feel when I'm in your arms
That's how I feel when I'm with you
You make me feel like never before
That's how I feel when I'm with you
He doesn't treat you good
He doesn't say the things that I say
So when he turns around
You're gonna stab him in the back and then walk away
Now maybe I'm right, or maybe I'm wrong
Oh, I gotta know now
I'll take what you got, so you'd better hold on
You'd better believe it
Cos that's how I feel when I'm in your arms
That's how I feel when I'm with you
You make me feel like never before
That's how I feel when I'm with you
You've been away too long
And now you're coming home
But I won't believe it until
I'm holding you tight, tight, tight tonight
Now maybe I'm right, or maybe I'm wrong
Oh, I gotta know now
I'll take what you got, so you'd better hold on
You'd better believe it
Cos that's how I feel when I'm in your arms
That's how I feel when I'm with you
You make me feel like never before
That's how I feel when I'm with you
That's how I feel when I'm in your arms
(That's how I feel when I'm with you) ooh, yeah
That's how I feel when I'm in your arms
That's how I feel when I'm with you
I wanna testify
Testify my love for you
I'm here to testify
Testify my love for you
And I will do all that I can do for you
Together we will be together
Come on testify
Testify your love for me
Testify
Testify your love for me
You can be all the things you want to be
And together we will be together
Every heart that's ever been broken
Knows these things must not go unspoken
Giving yourself, giving each other
The strength to lead on one another
I'll be there for you
You'll be here for me
That is why I wanna testify
Testify my faith in you
Come on and testify
Testify your trust in me

Tearing and breaking down
Tearing my heart
Tearing and breaking down
Tearing my heart
Tearing and breaking down
There goes my heart again
Tearing and breaking down
Watch my heart fly away
All the love that I have ever known
Came from the sweetest of hearts
Every time I was looking for love
I found it in you
Tearing and breaking down
There goes my heart again
Tearing and breaking down
Watch my heart fly away
All the tears you found in your eyes
I know that they were mine
All the love you were trying to disguise
I never could deserve
Tearing and breaking down
There goes my heart again
Tearing and breaking down
Watch my heart fly away
Saw that look in the eyes
And I felt so sorry for myself
I could have cried
Heard you saying goodbye
And you know if that’s so strange
Cos I know we’ve tried
With all the tearing and breaking down
Tearing my heart again
Tearing and breaking down
I can watch it fly away
Tearing and breaking down
Tearing my heart
All the tearing and breaking down
Tearing my heart again
Tearing and breaking down
Tearing my heart
Tearing and breaking down
Watch my heart fly away, fly away, fly away
Tearing and breaking down
you see the light oh in the window of my room
I'll be looking out though the shades are drawn
if you should hear someone quietly calling out for your help
don't be alarmed, it might just be me
take me with you, take me there
I'll go with you anywhere
show me all the things you know
are you with me, are you there
I'll be with you everywhere
show me all the things you know, you know, you know, you know
the sun always seems to shine on the other side of the mountain
the water is clear on the other side of the hill
all at once it comes to me, ooh as I lay down
where I am is where I should be
take me with you, take me there
I'll go with you anywhere
show me all the things you know, oh, oh
are you with me, are you there
I'll be with you everywhere
show me all the things you know, oh
I'm holding them close to you, all those things I learned
but there's no questions unanswered, so we watch the candle burn
on and on
still the candle burns all night
oh so bright until morning when I wake and find myself alone
so if you see me all you need, is someone crying, calling out
"rescue me, and take me home, take me home"
take me with you, take me there
I'll go with you anywhere
show me all the things you know, you know
take me with you, take me with you
take me with you, take me with you
show me all the things you know, please show me
just take me, show me
just take me, show me
just take me, show me
just take me, show me
just take me, show me
please take me, show me
It was the third of September
That day I'll always remember, yes I will
Cause that was the day, that my daddy died
I never got a chance to see him
Never heard nothin' but bad things about him
Momma I'm depending on you, to tell me the truth
Momma just hung her head and said, son
[Chorus:]
Papa was a rolling stone, (my son)
Where ever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died, all he left us was alone
[Chorus]
Hey Momma!
Is it true what they say that Papa never worked a day, in his life
And Momma, some bad talk goin' round town sayin' that Papa had three outside children
And another wife, and that ain't right
Heard them talking Papa doing some store front preachin'
Talked about saving souls and all the time reaching
Dealing in debt, and stealing in the name of the law
Momma just hung her head and said...
[Chorus 2x]
Hey Momma,
I heard Papa called himself a jack of all trades
Tell me is that what sent Papa to an early grave
Folks say Papa would beg, borrow, steal
To pay his bills
Hey Momma,
Folks say Papa never was much on thinking
Spent most of his time chasing women and drinking
Momma I'm depending on you, to tell me the truth
Momma looked up with a tear in her eye and said, son...
Take that look of worry
I'm an ordinary man
They don't tell me nothin'
So I find out all I can
There's a fire that's been burnin'
Right outside my door
I can't see but I feel it
And it helps to keep me warm
So I, I don't mind
No I, I don't mind
Seems so long I've been waitin'
Still don't know what for
There's no point escaping
I don't worry anymore
I can't come out to find you
I don't like to go outside
They can't turn off my feelings
Like they're turnin' off the light
But I, I don't mind
No I, I don't mind
Oh I, I don't mind
No I, I don't mind
So take, take me home
('Cos I don't remember)
Take, take me home
('Cos I don't remember)
Take, take me home
('Cos I don't remember)
Take, take me home
(Oh Lord)
'Cos I've been a prisoner all my life
And I can say to you
(Ohh ohh)
Take that look of worry
Mine's an ordinary life
(Ohh ohh)
Working when it's daylight
And sleeping when it's night
(Ohh ohh)
I've got no far horizons
I don't wish upon a star
(Ohh ohh)
They don't think that I listen
(Ohh ohh)
Oh but I know who they are
(Ohh ohh)
And I, I don't mind
No I, I don't mind
Oh I, I don't mind
No I, I don't mind
So take, take me home
('Cos I don't remember)
Take, take me home
('Cos I don't remember)
Take, take me home
('Cos I don't remember)
Take, take me home
(Oh Lord)
Well I've been a prisoner all my life
And I can say to you
But I don't remember
(Take, take me home)
'Cos I don't remember
(Take, take me home)
'Cos I don't remember
(Take, take me home)
'Cos I don't remember
(Take, take me home)
'Cos I don't remember
(Take, take me home)
'Cos I don't remember
(Take, take me home)
'Cos I don't remember
(Take, take me home)
'Cos I don't remember
(Take, take me home)
'Cos I don't remember
Seems I've lingered too long in the darkness
unlock the door, turn the light on and wait.
I should know better than to rest on a promise
but this body before you has seen too much pain.
Take me down, take me down to the water,
take my hand, learn me all I should know.
Here I am, I'm waiting for you
just give me a sign, oh please don't fail me now.
It's at this time we feel the emotion,
nothing is wasted, nothing is lost.
I'm sure that I've been here before sometime
some bridges are reached but never are crossed.
Take me down, take me down to the water,
take my hand, learn me all I should know.
Here I am, I'm waiting for you
just give me a sign, oh please don't fail me now.
Take me down, take me down to the water,
take my hand, learn me all I should know.
Here I am, I'm waiting for you
just give me a sign, oh please don't fail me now.
Don't fail me now
'cos it's out of my control.
I'm coming with you,
I'm right beside you,
oh feet don't fail me now.
Seems I've lingered too long in the darkness
unlock the door, turn the light on and wait.
I should know better than to rest on a promise
but this body before you has seen too much pain.
Take me down, take me down to the water,
take my hand, learn me all I should know.
Here I am, I'm waiting for you
just give me a sign, don't let me go.
Take me down, take me down to the water,
take my hand, learn me all I should know.
Here I am, I'm waiting for you

Standing in the shadows of love
I'm getting ready for the heartaches to come
Can't you see me standing in the shadows of love
I'm getting ready for the heartaches to come
I wanna run but there's no way to go
'Cause heartaches will follow me I know
Without your love, a love I need
It's the beginning of the end for me
'Cuz you've taken away all of my reasons for living
When you pushed aside all the love I've been giving
Now wait a minute
Didn't I treat you right, now baby didn't I
Didn't I do the best I could, now didn't I, didn't I?
So don't you leave me standing in the shadows of love
I'm getting ready for the heartaches to come
Don't you see me standing in the shadows of love
Trying the best to get ready for the heartaches to come
All alone I'm destined to be
With misery my only company
It may come today, and it might come tomorrow
But it's for sure I've ain't got nothing but sorrow
Now won't your conscience kinda bother you
How can you watch me cry after all I've done for you?
Now hold on a minute
Gave you all the love I had, now didn't I
When you needed me I was always there, now wasn't I
Standing in the shadows of love
Getting ready for the heartaches to come
I'm trying not to cry out loud
You know cryin', it ain't gonna help me none
What did I do to cause all this grief?
Now what did I say to make you wanna leave?
Now wait a minute
I gave my heart and soul to you now didn't I
And didn't I always treat you good now didn't I
I'm standing in the shadows of love
I'm getting ready for the heartaches to come
Don't you see me standing in the shadows of love
Trying the best to get ready for the heartaches to come
You called me from the room in your hotel
All full of romance for someone that you met
And telling me how sorry you were, leaving so soon
And that you miss me sometimes when you're alone in your room
Do I feel lonely too?
You have no right to ask me how I feel
You have no right to speak to me so kind
We can't go on, holding on to time
So far now we're go on living separate lives
Well I held on to let you go
And if you lost your love for me, you never let it show
There was no way to compromise
So now we're living
(Now we're living)
Separate lives
Ooh, it's so typical, love leads to isolation
So you build that wall
(Build that wall)
Yes, you build that wall
(You build that wall)
And you make it stronger
No, you have no right to ask me how I feel
You have no right to speak to me so kind
Some day I might find myself looking in your eyes
(I just might)
But for now, we'll go on living separate lives
Yes for now, we'll go on living separate lives
You oughta know by now
that a man can't hold on forever,
so why do you keep waiting here
when you know it makes me want you more?
You oughta know by now
how it fells to be loved,
so why d'you keep me hanging here,
with this stone around my heart, dragging me down, down, down
when all I'm trying to do is trying to get next to you, let me in, let me in.
You oughta know by now
or maybe someone should show you
that a man needs to be loved
and even in this man's world
with you it don't come easy
You oughta know by now
that no man can sleep at night
with a burning in his heart
that would tear this man apart
take me out of my misery,
'cos all I'm trying to do is trying to get next to you, let me in, let me in.
You oughta know by now
just how good it feels to be wanted,
and no man could love you more,
so why can't you show me something,
just a little bit of something?
You oughta know by now
all the things a man has to do in his life,
and all these things I do
you know that I do it all for you, I do it all for you.
'Cos all I'm trying to do is trying to get next to you,
yes all I'm trying to do is trying to get next to you.
Let me in, let me in,
Tell everybody I'm on my way
New friends and new places to see
With blue skies ahead, yes I'm on my way
And there's no where else that I'd rather be
Tell everybody I'm on my way
And I'm loving every step I take
With the sun beatin' down, yes I'm on my way
And I can't keep this smile off my face
'Cause there's nothing like seein' each other again
No matter what the distance between
And the stories that we tell will make you smile
Oh it really lifts my heart
So tell 'em all I'm on my way
New friends and new places to see
And to sleep under the stars and could ask for more
With the moon keeping watch over me
Not the snow not the rain can change my mind
The sun will come out wait and see
And the feeling of the wind in your face can lift your heart
Oh, there's no where I would rather be
'Cause I'm on my way now
Well and truly
I'm on my way now
I'm on my way now(x3)
Tell everybody I'm on my way
And I just can't wait to be there
With blue skies ahead yes I'm on my way
And nothing but good times to share
So, tell everybody I'm on my way
And I just can't wait to be home
With the sun beating down yes I'm on my way
And nothing but good times to show
I'm on my way
Everywhere I turn, I hurt someoneBut there's nothing I can say to change the things I've doneOf all the things I hid from you, I cannot hide the shameAnd I pray someone, something will come to take away the pain
There's no way out of this dark placeNo hope, no futureI know I can't be free and I can't see another wayI can't face another day
Tell me where, did I go wrongEveryone I loved, they're all goneI'd do everything so differently but I can't turn back the timeThere's no shelter from the storm inside of me
There's no way out of this dark placeNo hope, no futureI know I can't be free and I can't see another wayI can't face another day
I can't believe the words I hearIt's like an answer to a prayerWhen I look around I seeThis place, this time, this friend of mine
I know it's hard but you found somehowTo look into your heart and to forgive me nowYou've given me the strength to see just where my journey endsYou've given me the strength to carry on
I see the path from this dark place, I see my futureYour forgiveness has set me freeOh and I can see another wayI can face another day!
I see the path, I can see the pathI see the futureI see the path from this dark placeI see the future
I remember yet before we met
When every night and day
I had to live the life of a lonely one.
And I remember meeting you,
Discovering love could be so true
When shared by two, 'stead of only one.
When you said you loved me
We could not be parted.
Said, I built my world around you
And I'm truly glad I found you
Because loving you has made my life sweeter than ever.
I never felt so good before.
Loving you has made my life sweeter than ever.
Yes it has, you know it has.
Each night I pray we'll never part
Because the love within my heart
Grows stronger from day to day.
Best I try, hard I try
To reassure and satisfy.
You know I'd be lost if you went away.
[Bridge]
Because loving you has made my life sweeter than ever.
Yes it has, I know it has.
Loving you has made my life sweeter than ever.
[Bridge]
Because loving you has made my life sweeter than ever.
I never felt so good before.
Loving you has made my life sweeter than ever.
Yes it has, you know it has.
Loving you has made my life sweeter than ever.
Don't you know my baby there.
Sometimes I lie awake, wondering if I'll make it out of here,
but the wind blows round my heels, so I stay
I remember lying there, wishing I could be someone else
trying to find somehow to get away.
If I asked him nicely d'you think he's show me how to fly,
'cos the dust has weighed my wings down, and I'm too tired to try.
Sometimes I sit here hearing voices in my head
I try to understand, to make some sense.
I wonder if I had to, would I lie to save myself?
A plea of guilty, but self defence.
If I asked him nicely d'you think he'd show me how?
I'm sure he's out there listening, but he's too tied up right now to try
Try, all of my sins
'cos I can't stop now,
just don't leave me behind.
Sometimes I lie awake, wondering if I'll get out of here,
but the words stick in my throat and I stay.
I remember lying there, wishing I could be someone else,
trying to find somehow to get away
If I asked him nicely d'you think he's show me how to fly,
Whenever I'm with him
Something inside
Starts to burnin'
And I'm filled with desire
Could it be the devil in me
Or is this the way love's supposed to be
Just like a heatwave
Burning in my heart
Can't keep from cryin'
It's tearing me apart
Whenever he calls my name
So slow, sweet and plain
I feel, yeah, yeah, well I feel that burning flame
Has my blood pressure got a hold on me
Or is this the way love's supposed to be
Just like a heatwave
Burning in my heart
Can't keep from cryin'
It's tearing me apart
Sometimes I stare in space
Tears all over my face
I can't explain it, don't understand it
I 'ain't never felt like this before
But that doesn't mean it has me amazed
I don't know what to do, my head's in a haze
Just like a heatwave
Burning in my heart
Can't keep from cryin'
It's tearing me apart
Don't pass up this chance
This time it's a true romance
Love is here and
Oh, my darling, now you're gone
Love is here and
Oh, my darling, now, now you're gone
You persuaded me to love you
And I did
But instead of tenderness
I found heartache instead
Into your arms I fell
So unaware of the loneliness
That was waiting there
You closed the door to your heart
And you turned the key, locked your love away from me
Love is here and
Oh, my darling, now you're gone
You made me love you
And oh, my darling, now you're gone
You said loving you
Would make life beautiful
With each passing day
But as soon as love
Came into my heart
You turned and you walked, just walked away
You stripped me of my dreams
You gave me faith, then took my hope
Look at me now
Look at me
See what loving you has done to me
Look at my face
See how cryin' has left it's trace
After you made me all your own
Then you left me all alone
You made your words sound so sweet
Knowing that your love I couldn't keep
My heart cries out for your touch
But you're not there
And the lonely cry fades in the air
Love is here and
Oh, my darling, now you're gone
Love is here and
Oh, my darling, now you're gone
You made me love you
Oh, my darling
Now you're gone
You made me love you
Oh, my darling
Once upon a time I made a lion roar -
he was sleeping in the sunbeams on the old zoo floor.
I had gone to see the park where my papa used to play,
it's called called Villa Borghese and it's on the way
to East Africa.
Down on Grand Comoro Island, where I grew past four,
I could swim and fish and snorkel on the ocean floor,
and the wind laughed, and the wind laughed through the trees as if to say,
here's a child who'll want the world to go his way
in East Africa, in East Africa.
Suddenly for me the world turned upside down -
far from my friends the lions and the dolphins came this awful sound.
Dark shadows, sounds of thunder raging over me,
came this monster called 'A-dre-no-leu-ko-dys-tro-phy'
Where's my East Africa?
Well they said, they said, they said (the ones who know it all)
they said from now on for you there will be no more standing tall,
so I took my parents' hands, I lifted my head to say
I'll just have to be a hero, there's no other way!
Back to East Africa
Back to East Africa
Back to East Africa
there are things in life you learn and
oh, in time you'll see
cause out there somewhere it's all waiting
if you keep believing
so don't run, don't hide, it will be all right
you'll see, trust me, I'll be there watching over you
just take a look through my eyes
there's a better place somewhere out there
just take a look through my eyes
everything changes, you'll be amazed what you'll find
if you look through my eyes
there will be times on this journey
all you'll see is darkness
but out there somewhere daylight finds you
if you keep believing
so don't run, don't hide, it will be all right
you'll see, trust me, I'll be there watching over you
just take a look through my eyes
there's a better place somewhere out there
just take a look through my eyes
everything changes, you'll be amazed what you find
if you look through my eyes
all the things that you can change
there's a meaning in everything
and you will find all you need
there's so much to understand
take a look through my eyes
there's a better place somewhere out there
just take a look through my eyes
everything changes, you'll be amazed what you'll find
just take a look through my eyes
there's a better place somewhere out there
just take a look through my eyes
everything changes, you'll be amazed what you'll find
(you'll find a better place)
if you look through my eyes
(you know there's a better place)
just take a look through my eyes
(you'll find a better place)
if you look through my eyes
Father comes home 'cause his money's run out.
Seems a little loose tonight. He starts to shout.
His dinner's not on the table.
Seems mother's not able.
She's staring at the T.V.
You could smell it on his breath
And feel it in his touch.
He never meant to hit her hard,
But he's like that when he's had too much.
It's just another story about going too far.
It's just another story about going too far.
Well, the kid's at school, she's getting good grades,
But the peer pressure's starting now.
Too bad - she had it made.
Seems there's always someone trying to push you
To do something, you know,
Ain't the way they told you to. It's hard to see.
Well, the things you taught her, how to be,
It's like you told her nothing. Selective memory.
"Come on, just try it, it's only a smoke,
Ain't gonna kill you," so she takes a toke...
Fade to grey.
It's just another story about going too far.
Just another story about going too far.
Well, the guys at work seemed OK. Buy you a drink,
Get you laid - what's wrong with that?
Why'd they have more money than you,
Expensive cars, and expensive clothes?
Do you ever think of what they do?
At night, they're out shaking people down.
When they're walking together, seems they own the town.
But hey, who's gonna talk? You are their alibi.
Don't turn around. Don't ask questions. Just walk.
It's just another story about going too far.
It's just another story about going too far.
Just another story about going too far.
It's over
Oh yes it's all over
And it's been a long time coming
Some say it's too long
She said it
And now she'll regret it
But if she'd ask anyone
I know they'll tell her to her face, that it's too late
'Cause I don't wanna know
No, I don't wanna know
She can cry all she wants
She's not gonna bring me back, no no
I don't wanna know
No I don't wanna know
She can try all she wants
It's not gonna get me back, oh oh, no no
They warned me
Oh yes they all warned me
They told me, don't lose your heart to her
She'll never give it back, no no
Oh it's too late
She made a big mistake
It wouldn't be the first one anyway
Tell me how many more? No no no
No I don't wanna know what she said
No I don't wanna know what she said
She can cry all she wants
She's not gonna bring me back, no no
I don't wanna know what she said
No I don't wanna know what she said
She can try all she wants
It's not gonna get me back, no no, oh oh
It's over
Oh oh it's all over
And it's been a long time coming
Some say it's too long, oh oh
They warned me
Oh yes they all warned me
They told me, "Now don't lose your head to her
She'll never give it back", no no, no no
I don't wanna know what she said
No I don't wanna know what she said
She can cry all she wants
She's not gonna get me back, no no
I don't wanna know what she said
No I don't wanna know what she said
She can try all she wants
Well I’ve been waiting, waiting here so long
But thinking nothing, nothing could go wrong
Ooh and now I know she has a built-in ability
To take everything she sees
And now it seems I’m falling, falling for her
She seems to have an invisible touch, yeah
She reaches in and grabs right hold of your heart
She seems to have an invisible touch, yeah
It takes control and slowly tears you apart
Well I don't really know her, I only know her name
Ooh but she crawls under your skin, you're never quite the same
And now I know she's got something you just can't trust
And it's something mysterious
And now it seems I’m falling, falling for her
She seems to have an invisible touch, yeah
She reaches in and grabs right hold of your heart
She seems to have an invisible touch, yeah
It takes control and slowly tears you apart
She seems to have an invisible touch, yeah
She reaches in and grabs right hold of your heart
She seems to have an invisible touch, yeah
It takes control and slowly tears you apart
Well she don't like losing, to her it's still a game
And though she will mess up your life you'll want her just the same
And now I know she has a built-in ability
To take everything she sees
And now it seems I’ve fallen, fallen for her
She seems to have an invisible touch, yeah
She reaches in and grabs right hold of your heart
She seems to have an invisible touch, yeah
It takes control and slowly tears you apart
She seems to have an invisible touch, yeah
She seems to have an invisible touch, oh
She seems to have an invisible touch, yeah
She seems to have an invisible touch, oh
She seems to have an invisible touch, yeah
She seems to have an invisible touch, oh
She seems to have an invisible touch, yeah
Inside out, ooh you got me inside out
Oh inside out, oh inside out
Now everybody keeps on telling me how to be
And everybody tells me do what they say
Oh, I'll help myself it's up to me and no one else
But till I'm ready just keep out of my way
Inside out, ooh you got me inside out
Oh inside out, oh inside out
Now everybody's got me running round, up and down
And here I am going out of my mind
But I won't lose sight of all the, the things I'm looking for
They're coming to me and I'm taking what's mine
Inside out, ooh you got me inside out
Oh inside out, oh inside out, inside out
I'll play the game
We'll make the same mistakes
It's all the same
If we can give and take
Hold on, hold on, ooh
Hold on, hold on, ooh
Inside out, ooh you got me inside out
Oh inside out, oh inside out
All of my life I've been searching and hanging on
Turning a corner, never know what I'd find
But now I'm back again like I never went away
Ooh let me in I'm through with wasting my time
Inside out, ooh you got me inside out
Oh inside out, oh inside out
Oh inside out, ooh you got me inside out
All that time I was searching, with nowhere to run to
It started me thinking
Wondering what I could make of my life
And who’d be waiting
Asking all kinds of questions to myself
But never finding the answers
Crying at the top of my voice
And no-one listening
All this time, I still remember everything you said, aha
This much you promised, how could I ever forget
Listen, you know I love you but I just can’t take this
You know I love you but I’m playing for keeps
Although I need you, I’m not gonna make this
You know I want to but I’m in too deep
So listen, listen to me
Ooh, you must believe me
I can feel your eyes go through me
But I don’t know why
Ooh I know you’re going
But I can’t believe, it’s the way that you’re leaving
It’s like we never knew each other at all
It may be my fault
I gave you too many reasons for being alone
When I didn’t want to
I thought you’d always be there
I almost believed you
All this time, I still remember everything you said
Ah, ooh there’s so much you promised
How could I ever forget
Listen, you know I love you but I just can’t take this
You know I love you but I’m playing for keeps
Although I need you, I’m not gonna make this
You know I want to but I’m in too deep
So listen, listen to me
I can feel your eyes go through me
It seems I spent too long only thinking about myself, aha
But now I want to spend my life just caring ‘bout somebody else
Listen, you know I love you but I just can’t take this
You know I love you but I’m playing for keeps
Although I need you, I’m not gonna make this
You know I want to but I’m in too deep
You know I love you but I just can’t take this
You know I love you but I’m playing for keeps
Although I need you, I’m not gonna make this
You know I want to but I’m in too deep
I can feel it, comin' in the air tonight, oh Lord
I've been waitin' for this moment, all my life, oh Lord
Can you feel it comin' in the air tonight, oh Lord?
Oh Lord
Well if you told me you were drowning
I would not lend a hand
I've seen your face before, my friend
But I don't know if you know who I am?
Well I was there and I saw what you did
I saw it with my own two eyes
So you can wipe off that grin
Know where you've been
It's all been a pack of lies
And I can feel it comin' in the air tonight, oh Lord
I've been waitin' for this moment, all my life, oh Lord
I can feel it, in the air tonight, oh Lord, oh Lord
And I've been waitin' for this moment all of my life, oh Lord
Oh Lord
Well I remember, I remember, don't worry
How could I ever forget?
It's the first time and the last time we ever met
But I have know the reason why you keep your silence, oh
No you don't fool me
'Cause the hurt doesn't show
The pain still grows
It's stranger to you and me
I can feel it comin' in the air tonight, oh Lord
I've been waitin' for this moment for all my life, oh Lord
I can feel it comin' in the air tonight, oh Lord
I've been waitin' for this moment all my life, oh Lord oh Lord
I can feel it, comin' in the air tonight, oh Lord
I've been waiting for this moment all my life, oh Lord oh Lord
I can feel it, comin' in the air
I can feel it, comin' in the air
I've been waiting for this moment, all my life, my life
I can feel it, comin' in the air
I can feel it, comin' in the air
I've been waitin' for this moment, all my

Every single time
You take me out with you
You always flirt around
With someone new
But I never criticize
The tearful things you do
Cause I'm so afraid
Of losing you
But in my lonely room
Tears I don't have to hide
Cause I just lock my door
And let myself go and
Lay right down and cry
Every place we go
People are whispering
About your flirting ways
And it hurts me so to hear
But in the public's eye
I just push behind
All my hurt inside
And pretend I don't mind
But in my lonely room
Tears I don't have to hide
In my lonely, lonely
Lonely, lonely room
I push my pride aside
And lay right down and cry
In my lonely room
In my lonely room
Well
you can tell everyone I'm a down disgrace
Drag my name all over the place - I don't care anymore.
You can tell everybody 'bout the state I'm in
You won't catch me crying 'cos I just can't win -
I don't care anymore
I don't care anymore
I don't care what you say
I don't play the same games you play.
'cos I've been talking to the people that you call all your friends
And it seems to me there's a means to an end - they don't care anymore.
And as for me I can sit here and bide my time
I got nothing to lose if I speak my mind -
I don't care anymore
I don't care no more
I don't care what you say - we never played by the same rules anyway.
I won't be there anymore
get out of my way - let me by
I got better things to do with my time
I don't care anymore
I don't care anymore
I don't care anymore
I don't care anymore.
Well
I don't care now what you say
'cos everyday I'm feeling fine with myself.
And I don't care now what you say
hey -
I'll do alright by myself 'cos I know.
'cos I remember all the times I tried so hard
And you laughed in my face 'cos you held all the cards -
I don't care anymore.
And I really ain't bothered what you think of me
'cos all I want of you is just a let me be -
I don't care anymore
d'you hear I don't care no more
I don't care what you say - I never did believe you much anyway
I won't be there no more
so get out of my way - let me by
I got better things to do with my time
I don't care anymore.
D'you hear I don't care anymore
I don't care no more.
You listening I don't care no more
no more.
You know I don't care anymore
don't care no more
no more
Hang In LONG Enough
The signs are getting clearer, clearer than you need
The writing's on the wall, for you to see
You never thought you'd ever get the taste
You never thought that it could be this good
Just tell me what you want and I'll find the key
Reach out and touch it's all yours.
If you hang in long enough, you'll do it
Just hang in long enough
You're down on the ground , or so you say
You'd sell the hole in your pocket, if you could find a way
Don't ask me how I know, you don't wanna hear
It's been a long hard road, and the end is getting near.
You never thought you'd ever get the chance
You never thought your break would come along
If you tell me what you want, I'll find the key
Just reach out and touch it's all yours
If you hang in ...
They always say
The best things in life are free
But you want to have everything
Well you're going to have to beg if you want it all.
So hang in long enough, you'll do it
Hang in long enough
They'll let you out, the n pull you in
Playing hell with your emotions,
You'll feel like giving in.
When I'm feeling blue
all I have to do
is take a look at you,
then I'm not so blue.
When you're close to me
I can feel your heartbeat,
I can hear your breathing in my ear.
Wouldn't you agree,
baby you and me got a groovy kind of love.
Anytime you want to
you can turn me on to
anything you want to,
anytime at all.
When I kiss your lips
oh I start to shiver
can't control the quivering inside.
Wouldn't you agree,
baby you and me got a groovy kind of love.
When I'm feeling blue
all I have to do
is take a look at you,
then I'm not so blue.
When I'm in your arms
nothing seems to matter
my whole world could shatter: I don't care.
Wouldn't you agree,
Goin' to a go go
Goin' to a go go
Na na na na, yeah
Well, there's a brand new place I've found
Where people go from miles around
They come from everywhere
And if you drop in there
You might see anyone in town
Goin' to a go go, everybody's
Goin' to a go go, well, come on now
Don't you want to go, yeah
One more time, yeah I'm
Goin' to a go go, ooh ooh ooh ooh
Goin' to a go go, baby come on now
It doesn't matter where you are
A go go can be far
You'll see the people from your block
And don't be shocked
If you see your favorite star
Goin' to a go go, 'cause everybody's
Goin' to a go go, aw come on now
Don't you want to go, yeah, people come on
Na na na na yeah, ooh tell me
Don't you want to go, yeah
Now it's alright, I-yi
Goin' to a go go, yes I am now
Goin' to a go go, oh come on now
It doesn't matter if you don't stagger
It doesn't matter if you don't drag
You should have some fun
I'm telling everyone
Most every taxi that you flag is
Goin' to a go go, oh come on baby
Goin' to a go go, baby come on now
Don't you want to go, yeah
One more time, yeah
I'm goin' to a go go
Goin' to a go go, baby come on now
Goin' to a go go, oh come on baby
Goin' to a go go, oh come on now
I love you, girl, with all my heart and soul
I can't understand why you treat me cold
Your every wish, girl, is my command
And that's why I can't seem to understand why
Girl, girl, girl, why you wanna make me blue?
I'm askin' you girl, girl, girl, why you wanna make me blue?
One day you say you love me too
The next day you tell me that we are through
My love for you is just a game
But each time we play, girl, my heart feels the pain
Girl, girl, girl, why you wanna make me blue?
Oh girl, girl, girl, why you wanna make me blue, so blue?
[Instrumental]
Woo Girl, girl, girl, why you wanna make me blue? (make me blue)
Oh girl, oh girl, oh girl, tell me why can't you be true? (can't be true)
The way you treat me, it just isn't fair
You make it so plain you just don't care
You have a ball around my time
Of sleepless nights I'm getting tired
Girl, girl, girl, why you wanna make me blue?
I'm askin' you girl, girl, girl, why you wanna make me blue, baby?
Girl, girl, girl, why you wanna make me blue?
Oh oh girl, girl, girl, why you wanna make me blue?
Find a way to my heart, and I will always be with you
From wherever you are, I'll be waiting
I'll keep a place in my heart, you will see it shining through
So find a way to my heart, and I will, I will follow you
This journey's not easyfor you, I know
If your footsteps get too faint to hear, I'll go
Cos you know, quesations are never that easy
And never the same
You have the answer believe me
If you have the faith
Find a way to my heart...
Time may come, and time may go, I know
If you should call out for me, I'll go
But you know, there is a code to be broken
I wrap it around
Without a word being spoken
Without a sound
Ther's a reason I hide my heart
Out of sight out of mind
And when I find out just who you are
The door will be open for you to..

Every place you run to, I'll be there with you
Being with out you is driving me crazy
Oh I just don't know what to do
Cos being with out you is driving me crazy
Cos all I want is you, in my life
If all the world's just stage then we are
We're only just to crazy players
Please understand why I just can't go on with out you, anymore
There's no escaping me
I want you bad, can't you see?
I'm losing all control, I cannot guarantee my sanity
Cos being with out you is driving me crazy
I don't know what to do
Yes being with out you is driving me crazy
Cos all I want is you
Cos being with out you is driving me crazy
I don't know how long I'll last
Cos being with out you is driving me crazy
Feel my pulse, it's going so fast
You, you're driving me crazy
Me, I'm out of my mind
You, you're making my crazy
Me, I'm running out of time
(Key change)
I am your conscience and your guidance
I know just what you feel inside
I share your darkest thoughts
But you, you share no consequences for them
There's no escaping me
I'm with you while you sleep
I hear your lies, I hear your truth
I hear you speak before you do
But being with out you is driving me crazy
And I don't know what to do
Yes being with out you is driving me crazy
Cos all I want is you
Cos being with out you is driving me crazy
I don't know how long I'll last
Cos being with out you is driving me crazy
feel my pulse, it's going so fast
Cos being with out you is driving me crazy
I don't know what to do...
Cos being with out you is driving me crazy
I don't know how long I'll last...
And being with out you is driving me crazy
I don't know what to do...
Cos being with out you is driving me crazy
I don't know how long I'll last...
You keep on walking so you don't fall down
It's the same old story
You keep on hiding so you can't be found
It's the same old story
Oh, but I know you, you're the one who ran
You know why, it's because you can, oh
But it's alright, 'cause I don't mind
I'm just trying to help
But I wonder why, doesn't anybody stay together anymore
I wonder why, doesn't anybody stay together anymore
My friends keep falling and they can't get up
It's the same old story
Well, one says white and the other one black
It's the same old story
And I don't know why you keep emotions walled up
Your heart's on your sleeve, but your sleeve is rolled up
But it's alright, 'cause I don't mind
I'm just trying to help
But I wonder why, doesn't anybody stay together anymore
Oh, I wonder why, doesn't anybody stay together anymore
I wonder why, doesn't anybody stay together anymore
I wonder why, doesn't anybody stay together anymore
Things can change, from a misunderstanding
Nobody talks, nobody hears, oh oh oh
Makes me wonder why, doesn't anybody stay together anymore
Oh, I wonder why, doesn't anybody stay together anymore
You keep on looking for that higher ground
It's the same old story
Your glass is empty and the chips are down
It's the same old story
But I don't know why, your emotions walled up
Your heart's on your sleeve, but your sleeve is rolled up
But it's alright, 'cause I don't mind
I'm just trying to help
But I wonder why, doesn't anybody stay together anymore
Oh, I wonder why, doesn't anybody stay together anymore
Oh, I wonder why, doesn't anybody stay together anymore
Oh, I wonder why, doesn't anybody stay together anymore
So you leavin' in
the mornin'
on the early train.
Well I could say
everything's all right
and I could pretend
and say goodbye
Got your ticket
got your suitcase
got your leaving smile
Oh I could say that's the way it goes
and I could pretend you won't know
That I was lying...
Chorus:
Cuz I can't stop loving you
No I can't stop loving you
No I won't stop loving you
Why should I?
We Took a taxi
to the station
not a word was said
and I saw you walk across the road
for maybe the last time, I don't know
Feeling humble
heard a rumble on the railway track
and when I hear the whistle blow
I'll walk away and you won't know
that I'll be crying...
[Chorus]
Even try,
I'll always be here by your side.
Why, why, why?
I never wanted to say goodbye,
Why even try?
I'm always here, if you change,
change your mind.
So you're leavin'
in the mornin'
on the early train
Well, I could say everything's alright
and I could pretend and say goodbye
But that would be lying...
Chorus 2x
Why should I?
Why should I?
Why should I, even try?
Chorus
Why should I?
Why should I?
Dunno why
Why should I?
Though we might hate to admit it
There are always two sides to every story
Find yourself in the gutter in a lonely part of town
Where death waits in the darkness
With a weapon to cut some stranger down
Sleeping with an empty bottle
He's a sad and an empty hearted man
All he needs is a job and a little respect
So he can get out while he can
We always need to hear both sides of the story
A neighborhood peace is shattered
It's the middle of the night young faces hide in the shadows
While they watch their mother and father fight
He says she's been unfaithful
She says her love for him has gone
And the brother shrugs to his sister and says
"Looks like it's just us from now on"
We always need to hear both sides of the story
And the lights are all on, the world is watching now
People looking for truth, we must not fail them now
Be sure, before we close our eyes
Don't walk away from here till you hear both sides
Here we are all gathered in what seems
To be the center of the storm
Neighbors once friendly now stand each side
Of the line that has been drawn
They've been fighting here for years
But now there's killing on the streets
While small coffins are lined up sadly
Now united in defeat
We always need to hear both sides of the story
And the lights are all on, the world is watching now
People looking for truth, we must not fail them now
Be sure, before we close our eyes
Don't walk away from here till you see both sides
White man turns the corner
Finds himself within a different world
Ghetto kid grabs his shoulder
Throws him up against the wall
He says, "Would you respect me
If I didn't have this gun
'Cos without it, I don't get it
And that's why I carry one"
PHIL COLLINS – Billy, Don’t Lose My Number
They came at night leaving fear behind
Shadows were on the ground
Well nobody knew where to find him
No evidence was found
"I'm never coming back" they heard him cry
And I believe him
Well he never meant to do anything wrong
It's gonna get worse if he waits too long
Billy, Billy don't you lose my number
Cos you're not anywhere that I can find you
Oh now Billy, Billy don't you lose my number
Cos you're not anywhere that I can find you, oh no
Searching through the day and into the night
They wouldn't stop til they found him
They didn't know him and they didn't understand
They never asked him why
"Get out of my way" they heard him shout
Then a blinding light
Oh all I could see was him running down the street
Out of the shadows and into the night
Now Billy, Billy don't you lose my number
Cos you're not anywhere that I can find you, oh
Now Billy, Billy don't you lose my number
Cos you're not anywhere that I can find you, oh
Don't give up, keep running, keep hiding
Don't give up Billy, if you know you're right
Don't give up, you know that I am on your side
Don't give up, oh Billy, you better, you better, you better run for your life
Now Billy, Billy don't you lose my number
Cos you're not anywhere that I can find you, oh
Oh now Billy, Billy don't you lose my number
Cos you're not anywhere that I can find you, oh
They came at night leaving fear behind
Shadows were on the ground
Nobody knew where to find him
No evidence was found
"I'm never coming back" they heard him cry
And I believe him
He never meant to do anything wrong
It's gonna get worse if he waits too long
Now Billy, Billy don't you lose my number
Cos you're not anywhere that I can find you, oh
Now Billy, Billy don't you lose my number
Cos you're not anywhere that I can find you, oh
Now Billy, Billy don't you lose my number
Cos you're not anywhere that I can find you, oh
Now Billy, Billy don't you lose my number
All of my life, I've been searching
For the words to say how I feel
I'd spend my time thinking too much
And leave too little to say what I mean
But I've tried to understand the best I can all of my life
All of my life, I've been saying sorry
For the things I know I should have done
All the things I could have said come back to me
Sometimes I wish that it had just begun
Seems I'm always that little too late, all of my life
Set 'em up, I'll take a drink with you
Pull up a chair, I think I'll stay
Set 'em up, 'cos I'm going nowhere
There's too much I need to remember
And there's too much I need to say
All of my life, I've been looking
But it's hard to find the way
Just reaching past the goal in front of me
While what's important just slips away
And it doesn't come back but I'll be looking, all of my life
Set 'em up, I'll take a drink with you
Pull up a chair, I think I'll stay
Set 'em up, 'coz I'm going nowhere
There's too much I need to remember
And there's too much I need to say, oh yeah
All of my life there have been regrets
That I didn't do all I could
Making records upstairs while he watched TV
I didn't spend the time I should
How can I just let you walk away
just let you leave without a trace?
When I stand here taking every breath with you
you're the only one who really knew me at all.
How can you just walk away from me when all I can do is watch you leave'
'cos we shared the laughter and the pain and even shared the tears.
You're the only one who really knew me at all.
So take a look at me now
well
there's just an empty space
And there's nothing left here to remind me
Just the memory of your face.
take a look at me now
there's just an empty space
And you coming back to me is against the odds
And that's what I've got to face.
I wish I could just make you turn around
turn around and see me cry.
There's so much I need to say to you
so many reasons why.
You're the only one who really knew me at all.
So take a look at me now
well
there's just an empty space
And there's nothing left here to remind me
Just the memory of your face.
Now take a look at me now
'cos there's just an empty space
But to wait for you is all I can do and that's what I've got to face.
Take a good look at me now
'cos I'll still be standing here
And you coming back to me is against all odds
