Footsteps movements finding people
Clutch to the forbidden soul
Twisting words to find a reason
How am I supposed to throw
Questions that I cannot answer
Watch those boys they dance and go
Hung up like the rules that made them
I'll be gone before you know
If I cry
Let me be told
Or give me something
That I can hold
Rhythms take me
Do I need it
Will we kiss will you let go
Twisting hearts
Oh how we bleed them
How am I supposed to throw
Memories from where I keep them
Words will only make us slow
We are brave on the assumption
She'll be back
Before you know
If I cry
Let me be told
Or give me something
That I can hold
Footsteps movements finding people
Clutch to the forbidden soul
Twisting words to find a reason
How am I supposed to throw
Questions that I cannot answer
Watch those boys they dance and go
Hung up like the rules that made them
I'll be gone before you know
If I cry
Let me be told
Or give me something
Hello, hello, goodbye
Hello, hello, goodbye
Hello, hello, goodbye, goodbye
Hello, hello, goodbye
Hello, hello, goodbye
Hello, hello, goodbye, goodbye
The rhythm of the jungle
A temperamental beast
Makes the mountain tremble
Brings giants to their knees
If I ask you to stay
You might leave anyway
But the situations fallen from my hands
I say
Hello, hello, goodbye
Hello, hello, goodbye
Hello, hello, goodbye, goodbye
I feel exasperation
Get down on your knees
I called the operator
But this is where I freeze
I said hello, I said hello
I said hello, I've got to go
Do you love me? Do you love me? No
Do you love me? I've got to go
Do you love me? Do you love me? No
Do you love me? I've got to go
I say
Hello, hello, goodbye
Hello, hello, goodbye
Hello, hello, goodbye, goodbye
Hello, hello, goodbye
Hello, hello, goodbye
Hello, hello, goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
The rhythm of the jungle
A temperamental beast
Makes the mountain tremble
Brings giants to their knees
If I ask you to stay
You might leave anyway
But the situations fallen from my hands
I say
Hello, hello, goodbye
Hello, hello, goodbye
Hello, hello, goodbye, goodbye
Hello, hello, goodbye
Hello, hello, goodbye
You can't bystand all the people
Stand them on their own
They will fall to pieces
So we watch them grow
Into strange and pretty faces
I don't know
Clutching to my lipstick traces
Watch them go
Chorus:
Make mistake number three
Make mistake number three
Make mistake number three
It's strange how much it changes
How they want to know
How cynical are people
That's where children go
Dragged into a conversation
They can't hold
It's so sad
But it prepares them for the mould
(chorus)
Why is my love like an ocean run dry?
Why is my love
Such a struggle with life?
You can't bystand all the people
Stand them on their own
They will fall into pieces
So we watch them grow
(chorus)
Make mistake number three
Breaking out of school
Ain't really fooling no one
I was sure I'd get my reward in time
Backing uo the street
With the smell of sweet sensation
Didn't want to be another dime
Hidden in the pocket
Of some unfortunate nation
Didn't have no money, sure didn't have the time
Chorus:
Unfortunate thing, such an unfortunate thing
Unfortunate thing, such an unfortunate thing
But I fought with nothing
But I fought with nothing
Laughing at the rumor
That you've been screwing someone
Laugh better cry
It could be your turn next time
Brother what a lover beyond the fourth dimesion
He's got an ego
That's bigger than yours and mine
(chorus)
Don't call me Bwana
Let it settle in your heart
We move from children
Into a business counterpart
Your head was shaking as I walked into the room
A spirit breaking
That's why I feel this way
Breaking out of school
Ain't really fooling no one
I was sure I'd get my reward in time
Backing up a street
With a smell of sweet sensation
Didn't want to be another dime
(chorus)
I was staring at the people
Lost and terrified
Turned and saw you smiling
My heart was terrorised
Lust among the millions
Another suicide
Chorus:
When I think that love was there
Don't wanna talk about it
Don't wanna talk about it
The pain we share
While they just talk about it
While they just talk about it
A hand reached out to touch me
A letter hit the pile
I felt my life revolving
Like fingers in a dial
Just then I stopped believing
But only for a while
When I think that love was there
Don't wanna talk about it
Don't wanna talk about it
The pain we share
While they just talk about it
While they just talk about it
When I think that love was there
Don't wanna talk about it
Don't wanna talk about it
Don't give it up
Don't count on their loving
Don't give it up, don't try
Don't give it up
Don't count on their loving
Dont give it up, don't try
Don't wanna talk about it
Don't wanna talk about it
(chorus)
When I think that love was there
I was staring at the people
Lost and terrified
Turned and saw you crying
A victim of your pride
But you are no civilian
So open up your eyes
(chorus)
He could word it out like a dangerous man
How could you value his intentions
Martin had the devil just like anyone can
He spoke words they were frightened to mention
Chorus:
Yesterday ain't gone
We just pushed it aside
Out in the jungle
There ain't nowhere you can hide
There's a different smile on your face today
Though you wear it well
There's a lot to say
There's a different mood in the world tonight
We can do it right
John he washed it over with a confidence tan
I konw that peace and love ain't prevention
Brian in the closet with his master plan
Build them up it's so sad they forget you
(chorus)
Are we not men
Did you save us?
Are we not men
Did you try, did you try?
We have been, we have been, we have been
We have been denied
I could word it out like a dangerous man
If they landed here we'd collect them
Yellow, black or white here in the circus of men
I don't know I don't care I forget you
Death cab for cutie
Sung it like a beauty
Stepped out forgetting
Danger has a duty
Lonely night
He wants to squeeze her tight
They murder for a dollar
No one hears you holler
Wrap up your baby
Then you'll be a scholar
Chorus:
Love stops knocking, your heart starts rocking
It's crime time
Out on the main land
Hit him with a right hand
Stepped on his ego
Now he fells like a man
Do it right
It's a lonely fight
Playing fats waller
Lipstick on your collar
Back in 1950
People had their honour
(chorus)
They murder for a dollar
No one hears you holler
Wrap up your baby
Then you'll be a scholar
Words that pull the trigger
Fear the laughing sound
Haunts you/to consider
Love might turn you around
To face a blind emotion
Words like hey let's try
Words like/think it over
They just don't apply
Chorus:
I'm the Boy (You made me)
I'm the Boy/I'm the Boy
I'm the Boy (You made me)
I'm the Boy, I'm the Boy
Love is....
What you make it
Love the overflow
Play if you can take it/some
They just don't know
If all the rules they are making
Break somebody's heart
What's the use in taking
Babys fall apart
(chorus)
(You made me)
You made me realise
That love is just is just a word
That goes unheard in a situation
Where love is nothing
And you....
Are all I can see
This boy's in love with you
You're everything
I can see
This boy's in love with you
You have taken it all
Away from me
Words that pull the trigger
Fear the laughing sound
Haunts you/to consider
Love might turn you around
To face a blind emotion
Words like hey let's try
Words like/think it over
They just don't apply
(chorus)
yeah baby
I wanna tell you something girl
God intended and you planned it
It was meant to be
Like a lover, or a brother
I'll shield you from the enemy
Don't say forever
Don't say forever
Hold me
Let's stay together
Let's say together
Look in my eyes
Can't you see what I need?
Work on me baby
Work on me baby
I do it better when I'm under pressure
Work on me baby
Work on me baby
Some boys are devils
And some fools say
Maybe we'll work it out
I think we'll work it out
God intended, he depended
On our honesty
Like a lover, like no other
I'll shield you from the enemy
You've been trying baby
Just painting a picture for me
Ain't no use crying darling
When we love so easily
Every day in every way we'll work
Play
Playing with my sexuality
Play with your body, with your mind
All you people staring at the wall
Gonna make it easy, easy for all
When I say I don't dance, I'm mean
Not like you
When I say I don't dance, I need
Something new
All you pretty babies staring at the boy
Gonna tell you something, you won't get no joy
When I say I don't wanna dance, I'm mean
Not like you
When I say I don't dance, I need
Something new
Wednesday night I sleep unfolded
Thursday night another dream
Friday night wy heart is pumping
Saturday I'm feeling mean
Say it, with your body
Say it, with your body, with your mind
Say it, with you sexuality
With your body with your mind
Do you deal in black money
Do you deal in black money
Do you deal in black money
Do you deal in black money
Fortunes find you
Cross out every emotion
Standing right behind
A shadow of devotion
Somebody else's life
Cannot be mine
But when you love someone
And they don't love you in return
When you love someone
You've got money to burn
Do you deal in black money
Do you deal in black money
Do you deal in black money
Do you deal in black money
I believe that
Nothing could come between us
Magic potions
Won't you save them for dreamers
Somebody else's life cannot be mine
But when you love someone
And they don't love you in return
When you love someone
You've got money to burn
Do you deal in black money
Do you deal in black money
Do you deal in black money
Do you deal in black money
Give me some love
But don't waste my time
Black money
I'll love you again
But you must be mine
Black money
Give me some love
But don't waste my time
Black money
Fortunes find you
Cross out every emotion
Standing right behind
A shadow of devotion
Somebody else's life
Cannot be mine
But when you love someone
And they don't love you in return
When you love someone
You've got money to burn
Do you deal in black money
Do you deal in black money
Do you deal in black money
Do you deal in black money
Give me some love
But don't waste my time
Black money
I'll love you again
But you must be mine
Black money
Give me some love
But don't waste my time
Clowns caress you
Figures undress your fear
Induced to crime beyond emotion
Shedding tears as big as the ocean
Don't say you didn't hear us calling
You'll be sorry in the morning
When we tell you
Mama had tears in her eyes
She's the only one who never cries
That's the way we destroy baby
Shut it out, shut it out
That's the way we destroy baby
Shut it out of your mind
That's the way
That's the way
If I address you
And you see me in the shadows falling
Call, caress me
Hey I woke up on my own this morning
Don't say you didn't hear us calling
You'll be sorry in the morning
Don't say you didn't hear us calling
You'll be sorry in the morning
When we tell you
Mama had tears in her eyes
She's the only one that never lies
I'm only trying to help you
On the street
They're preaching violence
Mr Man it's in your head
On the street
The midnight cowboy
Needs no gun
To shoot you dead
Why do I live the way I do
Ain't it obvious
I'm just a man like you
Mr Man full of love
Mr Man full of hate
Got his heart on the trigger
But he pulled it too late
Mr Man is a pilot
Mr Man is a fake
Mr Man's feeling hungry
And he's lying in wait
On the street
The lights are fighting
Searching for someone like you
Better find a good Messiah
To help the sad and lonely through
Why do I live the way I do
Ain't it obvious
I'm much more black than blue
On the street (They're preaching violence)
Mr Man it's in your head
On the street
The midnight cowboy
Needs no gun
To shoot you dead
Someone says
Wake up child
And throw your life away
See you in the crime file
What will your mama say
Sometimes you get angry
No focus in your life
When people get hungry
They learn how to survive
Chorus:
Changing every day
Changing every day
Changing every day
Changing every day
Summer syncopation
The space between your eyes
Is a place for heroes
That never compromise
Sometimes you feel lonely
No focus or surprise
Pushed into production
What a way to live our lives
(chorus)
War war is stupid
And people are stupid
And love means nothing
In some strange quarters
War war is stupid
And people are stupid
And I heard them banging
On hearts and fingers
People fill the world
With narrow confidence
Like a child at birth
A man with no defense
What's mine is my own
I won't give it to you
No matter what you say
No matter what you do
Now we're fighting
In our hearts
Fighting in the street
Won't somebody help me?
War war is stupid
And people are stupid
And love means nothing
In some strange quarters
War war is stupid
And people are stupid
And I heard them banging
On hearts and fingers
Man is far behind
In the search for something new
Like a Philistine
We're burning witches too
This world of fate
Must be designed for you
It matters what you say
It matters what you do
Now we're fighting
In our hearts
Fighting in the street
Won't somebody help me?
War war is stupid
And people are stupid
And love means nothing
In some strange quarters
War war is stupid
And people are stupid
And I heard them banging
On hearts and fingers
After the bird has flown
He walked ten thousand
Miles back home
You can't do that to me, no
You can't do that to me
You can't do that to me, no
You can't do that to me
In this heart of mine
I find a place for you
For black or white
For all the children, too
Now we're fighting
In our hearts
Fighting in the street
Won't somebody help me?
War war is stupid
And people are stupid
And love means nothing
In some strange quarters
War war is stupid
And people are stupid
And I heard them banging
Ooh mystery boy
Ooh mystery boy
It's too sad to point the finger
I told the boy to look at me
But what you say it never lingers
It's not what you say, but what you see
Boy look at me
I couldn't look no better see
Ooh mystery boy
Ooh mystery boy
It's too sad that love would sting you
You told the girl that it would be
A kind of love that's deep within you
A boy's a boy, but did they say he'd be
For eternity?
Or just a mystery
Ooh mystery boy
Ooh mystery boy
Ooh mystery boy
Ooh mystery boy
Mystery boy
ooh
ooh
Mystery Mystery Mystery boy
It's too sad to point the finger
I told the boy to look at me
It's too sad that love might sting you
You told the girl that it would be
Some kind of love that's deep within you
Some dream that's hard to see
Mystery boy
Moving moving
Move away
Spirit changed the conversation
Stepping stones across the land
I never wanted to be a hero
I never wanted to be a man
I hurt you darling
I made you cry
I hurt you darling
Don't ask me why
Move move move away from me darling
I never said I'd hold your hand
Move move move away from me darling
I never said I'd understand
If I could say this was judgment day
You know I'd be a millionaire
I'm prepared to wear my sorrow
Everywhere we go in town
Ain't no need to beg or borrow
While you're there to drag me down
I hurt you darling
I made you cry
I hurt you darling
Don't ask me why
Move move move away from me darling
I never said I'd hold your hand
Move move move away from me darling
I never said I'd understand
If I could say this was judgment day
You know I'd be a millionaire
(Justice right)
Move away
I need you so
I can't let go
I hurt you darling
I made you cry
I hurt you darling
Don't ask me why
Move move move away from me darling
I never said I'd hold your hand
Move move move away from me darling
I never said I'd understand
If I could say this was judgment day
You know I'd be a millionaire
Moving moving
Move away
I never said I'd hold your hand
Move move move away
Why don't you move?
I never said I'd understand (moving moving)
Move away
Move move move away
Why don't you move? (moving moving)
Man shake
Man shake
Man shake
Man shake
I've got this nasty camera
One snap it stole my soul
If you're left feeling lonely
One is the place to go
Now I never bothered
With things I cannot see
And now I've heard the drum track
You're just a basic enemy
Man shake
Man shake
Man shake
Man shake
I've told you out there, up there
A promise you can't see
But with your devil camera
You take your chance with me
Now we're passing strangers
Who knows what we'll be
Tried to re-arrange us
Who would shake your effigy
Man shake
Man shake
Man shake
Man shake
you were never no good (x4)
oh no...
you say that love is wrong
'cause I know that love is strong
when you get it from some they say
that love is just thrown away
did they ever love you my way
you were never no good (x4)
oh no...
someone is gonna pay
for taking my heart away
if it's love that you want to show
how am I supposed to know
in my way
you were never no good (x20)
did you say that love is wrong
you showed you were weak from the strong
you keep leaving me to feel
that wicked emotion you steal
you don't understand
Guns that cross the street
You never know who you might meet
Who's in disguise
Ooh as you blow a storm
There's no one there to keep you warm
It's no surprise
There's something in my eyes
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
And dreams are made of emotion
Dance with the counterfeit
The plastic smiles and micro heat
I'll meet you there
Run to the edge of town
Where Hollywood lay its footprints down
Monroe was there
But do you really care
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
And dreams are made of emotion
Guns that cross the street
You never know who you might meet
Who's in disguise
Ooh as you blow a storm
There's no one there to keep you warm
It's no surprise
There's something in my eyes
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
And dreams are made of emotion
Cry it's a miracle
Cry it's a miracle
Cry it's a miracle
Well you tried so hard to change the story
It was love but it was nothing new
Just a question of a moment's glory
For someone to take it all from you
You told me I was such a fool
First you were kind, then you were cruel
You taught me how to break the rules
And I said thank you baby
Gusto Blusto
If your loving is so good
Gusto blusto
I'd do it if I could
Gusto blusto
I'd love you if you would
Gusto blusto
Do it! Do it! Yeah!
Well you think you really have the answer
But I never made a move on you
I don't even get a chance to get what's coming
Baby that ain't all I do
Gusto Blusto
If your loving is so good
Gusto blusto
I wish you understood
Gusto blusto
I'd love you if you would
Gusto blusto
Do it! Do it! Yeah!
I give you good good loving
Sweet memories of you
You gave and taught me nothing new
Thank you baby
Gusto blusto
If your loving is so good
Gusto blusto
I wish you understood
Gusto blusto
I never break the rules
Gusto blusto
Don't you be so cruel
Wanna dance? Don't sit there
Woman, thank you thank you
God thank you woman
What we have is something special
Something quite unique
What we have should last forever
Heaven at my feet
I would give the world to you
Or anything you need
There is nothing I won't do
Just promise that you'll never leave
Chorus:
God thank you woman
Thank you thank you
For the joy that you give to me
God thank you woman
Thank you thank you
For the joy that you give to me
In this world you are my pleasure
No one can compete
Happiness is hard to measure
Woman you're so sweet
I would give my heart to you
You're the air I breathe
There is nothing I won't do
Just promise that you'll never leave
(chorus)
When I'm alone at night
I think of love
Well, baby that's alright
But it ain't enough
Won't you call me if you need me
I have loved
I would give the world to you
Or anything you need
Oh God thank you woman
Thank you thank you
For the joy that you give to me
Everything I Own
You sheltered me from harm
Kept me warm, you kept me warm
You gave my life to me
You set me free, set me free
Of all the years I ever knew
Those finer ones I spent with you
I would give everything I own
Give up my life, my heart, my home
I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again
You taught me how to cry
I don't know why, just don't know why
You told those lies to me
You set me free, set me free
Of all the years I ever knew
Those finer ones I spent with you
I would give everything I own
Give up my life, my heart, my home
I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again
Just to hold you once again
If there's someone you know
That won't let you go
And is taking it all for granted
You may lose them one day
Someone take them away
And you don't hear a word they say
I would give everything I own
Give up my life, my heart, my home
I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again
When I looked in your eyes
Felt the spirit of man
Demanding more than just a smile
Took a chance for a while
Speaking in tongues
That float us down rivers
The past will remind us
All colors we chose
When I told you those lies
Felt the spirit of love
Demanding more than comprimise
Took a chance for a while
Speaking in tongues
That float us down rivers
The past will remind us
All colors we chose
Some people say that the way that we live
Is out of this place
And some people say that the way that we live
Is blinded by fate
Clowns caress you
Figures undress your fear
Induced to crime beyond emotion
Shedding tears as big as the ocean
Don't say you didn't hear us calling
You'll be sorry in the morning
When we tell you
Mama had tears in her eyes
She's the only one who never cries
That's the way we destroy baby
Shut it out, shut it out
That's the way we destroy baby
Shut it out of your mind
That's the way
That's the way
If I address you
And you see me in the shadows falling
Call, caress me
Hey I woke up on my own this morning
Don't say you didn't hear us calling
You'll be sorry in the morning
Don't say you didn't hear us calling
You'll be sorry in the morning
When we tell you
Mama had tears in her eyes
She's the only one that never lies
Like Alice in Wonderland
The dream takes you by the hand
Inside emotions that you might not feel
If by some notion the dream was not real
The dream, the dream, the dream
Watching the colors as they run
Figures you mold like the sun
Lovers can dream, devils can dream
You may be nowhere until you have seen
The dream, the dream, the dream whoa
Oh what have I done?
Close my eyes and I dream of some world
It could be magic, it could be tragic
Hee, dream
When I wake up feelin' victimized
There was nothin' that can stop my eyes
From cryin', cryin'
Nobody likes to be alone
When you put the pressure down on me
'Cause I don't quite fit your imagery
I'm tryin', tryin'
Baby, I'm no superman
Baby, I'm no superman
Eyes like a deep blue sea
Is to dive in, dive in
Love that you give to me
We're survivin', survivin'
When love is gone, I can't carry on
When you know that love is on my mind
When you know that love is on my mind
It's a perfect chance to be unkind
You do it, do it
Within the arms of misery
Being sly you take a chance on crime
But the master has a new design
On loving, living
Out and in the enemy
Out and in the enemy
Eyes like a deep blue sea
Is to dive in, dive in
Love that you give to me
We're survivin', survivin'
When love is gone, I can't carry on
Eyes that open wide
Do you do
The love you give the child
Do you do
Why do you do that to me?
When I wake up feelin' victimized
There was nothin' that can stop my eyes
From cryin', cryin'
Nobody likes to be alone
When you put the pressure down on me
'Cause I don't quite fit your imagery
I'm tryin', tryin'
Baby, I'm no superman
Hey baby, I'm no superman
Eyes like a deep blue sea
Is to dive in, dive in
Love that you give to me
We're survivin', survivin'
Eyes like a deep blue sea
Is to dive in, dive in
Love that you give to me
We're survivin', survivin'
Eyes like a deep blue sea
Is to dive in, dive in
Love that you give to me
We're survivin', survivin'
Eyes like a deep blue sea
Is to dive in, ooh dive in
Love that you give to me
We're survivin', survivin'
Eyes like a deep blue sea
Is to dive in, ooh dive in
Love that you give to me
We're survivin', survivin'
Love that you give to me
Dive in, dive in
Love that you give to me
We're survivin', survivin'
Eyes like a deep blue sea
Is to dive in, dive in
Love that you give to me
We're survivin', survivin'
I know all there is to know - about the crying game
I´ve had my share of the crying game
First there are kisses - than there are sighs
and than before you know where you are - you´re saying goodbye
One day soon I´m gonna tell the moon about the crying game
and if he knows maybe he´ll explain -why there are heartaches - why there are tears
Say what to do - to stop feeling blue - when love disappear
First there are kisses - than there are sighs
and than before you know where you are - you´re saying goodbye
Don´t want no more - of this crying game
Don´t want no more - of this crying game
Don´t want no more - of this crying game
I have love sweeter than lies
Gave you no reason not to decide
Say you are leaving, you've got too much pride
It's not love if you have to hide it
Who is the man who puts weaves on the sand?
It's the stormkeeper, stormkeeper
Liven my life when I need to survive
Is the storm keeping you warm?
Keeping you warm
I have cried so many times
But only for things that never were mine
Heaven is sweet, love is unkind
Thoughts are twisted inside your mind
Who is the man who puts weaves on the sand?
It's the stormkeeper, stormkeeper
Liven my life when I need to survive
Is the storm keeping you warm?
Keeping you warm
Don't let them tell you
That this love is wrong
And don't let them fool you
That this love can't go on, on
Who is the man who puts weaves on the sand?
It's the stormkeeper, stormkeeper
Liven my life when I need to survive
It's the stormkeeper, stormkeeper
Who is the man who puts weaves on the sand?
It's the stormkeeper, stormkeeper
Liven my life when I need to survive
Is the storm keeping you warm?
Stand down, yeah
Stand down, ooh yeah, ooh yeah
Got to let it, ooh yeah
Gotta do it, yeah, yeah, oh yeah
Friends and lovers beware
'Cause there's something in the air
I feel it coming, I feel it coming
And I'm talking to you all
'Cause when that hammer starts to fall
There'll be no running, there'll be no running
But my people and your people
Must do the things they do, yeah
And my people are such sweet people
Don't worry, baby, won't get those hooks on you
Stand down, don't let them know your secret
(Stand)
Stand down, if you wanna live your life
(Stand)
Stand down, don't let them know your secret
(Stand)
Stand down, if you wanna live your life
(Stand)
Stand down, ooh yeah, stand down, yeah
It is written in the sky
There's no place for you and I
To keep on strumming, no strumming
In the message that we send
They're gonna tell us in the end
That we had it coming, we had it coming
But my people and your people
Must do the things they do, yeah
And my people are such sweet people
Don't worry, baby, won't get those hooks on you
Stand down, don't let 'em know your secret
(Stand)
Stand down if you wanna live your life
(Stand)
Stand down, don't let 'em know your secret
(Stand)
Stand down if you want, if you wanna live your life
(Stand)
If all the things that we possess
The most important is tenderness
Too cold when that wind blows today
And bitterness is the easy way
Stand down low
Stand down
Got to, got to need
You got to
But my people and your people
Must do the things they do, yeah
And my people are such sweet people
Don't worry, baby, won't get those hooks on you
Stand down, don't let 'em know your secret
(Stand)
Stand down if you wanna live your life
(Stand)
Stand down, don't let them know your secret
(Stand)
Stand down if you wanna live your life
(Stand)
Stand down
(Stand)
Stand down
(Stand)
Many lives they come, many lives they go
Without reason
In my heart I know I cannot let go
Without reason
Little children don't you feel so sad
When you come home feeling lost and bad
You got a reason, oh you got a reason
Oh woman, I gave my heart to you
When I found out what you've been through
You got a reason, oh you got a reason
Many lives they come, many lives they go
Without a reason in your heart, how could you know?
In my heart I know I cannot let go
Without a reason in my heart, how could you know?
(I know)
When they find you crying sorrows tears
And it's too late after all these years
You got a reason, gimme that reason
It's boys be strong and girls be weak
But children, careful how you speak
You got a reason, gimme that reason
Many lives they come, many lives they go
Without a reason in your heart, how could you know?
In my heart I know I cannot let go
Gotta reason in my heart and don't you know?
I believe in love
I believe in you baby
What about love?
Give it to me, you gotta give me a reason baby
Little children don't you feel so bad
When you come home feeling lost and sad
You gotta reason
Saved by this parade of passion was my company
Gave my life for next to nothing a sane artillery
Is one that kisses 2 be clever, who is the enemy?
It's not me, not me, not you, not me
Saved by this persuade like passion, sexuality
Gave my heart like fate was nothing, a sane reality
Is one that wishes never, never, what is reality
Show me, show me, show me
Sail on a sea of Pepsi Cola shaken at sunrise
Kiss the boy and then employ a very white disguise
Who had asked you to consider, you are not so fly
In the city they will snigger, ask them why
Saved by this parade of passion was my company
Gave my life for next to nothing, a sane artillery
Is one that kisses 2 be clever, who is the enemy?
It's not me, not me, no, not you, not me
When you hear them talking
Saying things that you don't understand
Just keep on walking
And tell 'em you don't give a damn!
Don't call me brother, I ain't your brother
We need more than crime prevention
We need more than ecstasy
We'll be needing police protection
Better keep your hands off me
And I pray, I pray
I've been on my knees all day
And I pray, I pray
I hear every word you say
Take a look at that cat
It's a game they play with people
Kiss and count the enemy
I don't cry when I feel the tension
I have state security
This ain't a revolution
That's just people talking
Ain't a revolution
Say, say it again
If I never get caught
I'll be here all night
Doing things I know ain't right
Fifty seven dreams ago
That's the problem if you're slow
Take a picture of tonight and keep it by your heart
Love has left us memories, there's no better way to part
I will find another love, someone new to drag me down
How you tried to level me but you never stood your ground
Fortunately I got wise this time, fortunately I got me on my mind
Oh, I just wanna be loved, don't wanna fight you, baby
But I'm much too proud to say it loud
I just wanna be loved, don't wanna beg you, baby
But I'm much too proud to say it loud
Take a piece of dignity and use it in your life
Even though you hurt me, I still want you to survive
Love was never special, we were never down
You will always have someone to bring you on the ground
Fortunately I got wise this time, fortunately I got me on my mind
Oh, I just wanna be loved, don't wanna fight you, baby
But I'm much too proud to say it loud
I just wanna be loved, don't wanna beg you, baby
But I'm much too proud to say it loud
Fortunately I got wise this time, fortunately I got me on my mind
Oh, I just wanna be loved, don't wanna fight you, baby
But I'm much too proud to say it loud
I just wanna be loved, don't wanna beg you, baby
But I'm much too proud to shout it loud
I just wanna be loved, don't wanna fight you, baby
But I'm much too proud to say it loud
I just wanna be loved, don't wanna beg you, baby
But I'm much too proud to say it loud
I just wanna be loved, oh, I just wanna be loved
Luxury and heartache
Oh, yeah
Oh, luxury and heartache
Oh, yeah
I won't be coming home tomorrow
Nobody there to catch my tears
I won't be leaving tears of sorrow anymore
I played that game for so many years
If I cry, will you catch my fall
Do you want me to be the same
If I cry, will you catch my fall
Am I playing the loser's game?
From luxury to heartache
Such a long way to find that you were mourning
From luxury to heartache
Such a long way you gave me little warning
She will be there to give you children, yes she will
She will be there to make you sing, sing, sing
I won't be standing in the shadows anymore
I learned to cover up my pain
If I cry will you catch my fall
Do you want me to be the same
If I cry will you catch my fall
Am I playing the loser's game?
From luxury to heartache
Such a long way to find that you were mourning
From luxury to heartache
Such a long way you gave me little warning
Gave me love
You gave your love to me
You gave me love
But it's not enough for me
Oh, luxury
But all you give me is pain
Again and again
Luxury is sweet and so cool
If I cry will you catch my fall
Do you want me to be the same
If I cry will you catch my fall
Am I playing the loser's game?
From luxury to heartache
Such a long way to find that you were mourning
From luxury to heartache
Such a long way you gave me little warning
From luxury to heartache
Such a long way to find that you were mourning
From luxury to heartache
You sheltered me from harm
Kept me warm, kept me warm
You gave my life to me
Set me free, you set me free
Of all the years I ever knew
Those finer one's I spent with you
I would give everything I own
Give up my life, my heart, my home
I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again
You taught me how to cry
I don't know why, just don't know why
You told those lies to me
You set me free, you set me free
Of all the years, I ever knew
Those finer ones, I spent with you
I would give everything I own
Give up my life, my heart, my home
I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again
Just to hold you once again
If there's someone you know that won't let you go
And taking it all for granted
You may lose them one day
Someone take them away
And you don't hear a word they say
I would give everything I own
Give up my life, my heart, my home
I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again
Just to hold you once again
I would give everything I own
Give up my life, my heart, my home
I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again
Watching the stars on Primrose Hill
The moon is high and the city is still
I came here to escape the chill
Of your cold shoulder
Evil sometimes, the things you say
If you really wish I would just go away
Then why do you cry
Like a little child
All your world, that's what you say I am
I'm working so hard to be a better man
You know I'll never ever lie
Never play those games with my mind
You'll be the loser, you might find
Questions lead to answers in time
While you're so cold, so cold inside
[Incomprehensible]
Remember that fight in Amsterdam
When I made you cry 'cause I know I can?
You could not escape the chill
Of my cold, cold shoulder
All your world that's what you say I am
I'm working so hard to be a better man
You know I'll never ever lie
Never play those games with my mind
You'll be the loser, you might find
Questions lead to answers in time
While you're so cold
I know you're hurting inside
Want someone to pay for the tears you cry
Ain't gonna be me, not this time
Never lie, never play those games with my mind
You'll be the loser, you might find
Questions lead to answers in time
While you're so cold, so cold inside
Never play those games with my mind
You'll be the loser, you might find
Questions lead to answers in time
While you're so cold, so cold inside
I know you're hurting
I'm hurting too
But I don't wanna hurt you
'Cause I love you
Say your mind has an overload
Your heart beats rhythm
Hot and cold
Your stature has a naked bust
When you're near
You're not like us
You know I'm not crazy
You know I'm not crazy
I caught on to the way you smile
Love could only last a while
I couldn't love
I couldn't touch
The situation
Was too much
You know I'm not crazy
You know I'm not crazy
Your love fails me
Your love it fails me
Your love fails me
Your love it drives me crazy
Don't tell me that lovers always mistrust
The lies in your eyes
The death in your lust
It's more than distraction
You touch you feel
Our hearts dance apart
And you say this is real
You know I'm not crazy
Talk about the love we feel
The passion that our hearts conceal
Kiss and run
The fools we trust
Love inside a blinding lust
You know I'm not crazy
You know I'm not crazy
Hold me to my every word
Forget about the things you heard
Time will conquer
Time will state
We owe every tear to fate
You know I'm not crazy
You know I'm not crazy
Your love fails me
Your love it fails me
Your love fails me
Black boys employ salassie
We kiss we define
White hands white hearts
The gender
How can I make you mine
Take me to God
In a world of blank kisses
Who breaks the colours
I know what this is
A one man show
THAT'S HOW WE KNOW
THAT'S HOW WE KNOW
Your white does the blood flow
YOURE WHITE DANCE LIKE AN ENEMY
YOURE WHITE DANCE LIKE AN ENEMY
YOURE WHITE DANCE LIKE AN ENEMY
White boys fall out
In a whirl of decisions
Show me what is
Then show me what isn't
A heart too slow
THAT'S HOW WE KNOW
THAT'S HOW WE KNOW
Your white does the blood flow
YOURE WHITE DANCE LIKE AN ENEMY
YOURE WHITE DANCE LIKE AN ENEMY
YOURE WHITE DANCE LIKE AN ENEMY
YOU'RE SO WHITE
YOU'RE WHITE
WHITE BOY
WHITE BOY
WHITE BOY
WHITE BOY
WHITE BOY
WHITE BOY
White boy dance
Do something sweet
Like pull my heart
Like use your feet
Like steal some culture
Let's fake this dance
A white boy kiss
A white boy chance
Don't take me over
Abuse my heart
When I change colour I'm here stop start
Hey devil kiss me
I'm taking chances
Not faking my culture
The rhythm it dances
I love your wisdom
I love your mind
White boys are babies (not my kind)
THIS LUST IS FASHION
That's my sin
By falling out
We're falling in
Now I'm broken
Watch it flow
I'm taking over
The victims we know so well
They shine in your eyes
When they kiss and tell
Strange pieces we never see
But you're always there
Like a ghost in my dream
And I keep on telling you
Please don't do the things you do
When you do those things
Pull my puppet strings
I have that strangest void for you
We love and we never tell
What pieces our hearts in the wishing well
Love lead us into the stream
And it's sink or swim
Like it's always been
And I keep on loving you
It's the only thing to do
When the angel sings
There are greater things
Can I give them all to you
Pull the strings of emotion
Take a ride into unknown pleasure
Fell like a child
On a dark night
Wishing there was some kind of heaven
I could be warm with your smiling
Hold out your hand for a while
The victims
We know them so well
The victims we know so well
They shine in your eyes
When they kiss and tell
Strange places we never see
But you're always there
Like a ghost in my dream
And I keep on telling you
Please don't do the things you do
When you do those things
Pull my puppet strings
I have the strangest void for you
Show my heart some devotion
Push aside those that whisper never
Feel like a child on a dark night
Wishing we could spend it together
I could be warm with your smiling
Hold out your hand for a while
The victims
This is America the land of dreams
You're lifting me up again
I feel dangerous scared
My children don't like thunder
My children don't like rain
My children don't like fighting
My children play the game
My children don't like violence
My children don't like change
My children don't like silence
My children don't like pain
Hearts are lost and found
(Take me to America)
Hearts are lost and found
I'll be you won't stay
Too bad
They've given you a heart, too bad
They've given you a start, too bad
They've given you a heart, too bad
I cannot function, too bad
My children don't like movies
My children don't have dreams
My children don't think money
My children never scheme
The land of dreams
I've given you everything
That you could ask for
My children don't like thunder
Don't like rain
Change, change, change
My children don't like thunder
Don't put your head on my shoulder
Sink me in a river of tears
This could be the best place yet
But you must overcome your fears
In time it could have been so much more
The time is precious I know
In time it could have been so much more
The time has nothing to show
Because time won't give me time
And time makes lovers feel
Like they've got something real
But you and me we know
They've got nothing but time
And time won't give me time
Won't give me time
Don't make me feel any colder
Time is like a clock in my heart
Touch we touch was the heat too much
I felt I lost you from the start
In time it could have been so much more
The time is precious I know
In time it could have been so much more
The time has nothing to show
Because time won't give me time
And time makes lovers feel
Like they've got something real
But you and me we know
They've got nothin but time
And time won't give me time
Won't give me time
Oh in time it could have been so much more
The time is precious I know
In time it could have been so much more
The time has nothing to show
Because time won't give me time
And time makes lovers feel
Like they've got something real
But you and me we know
They've got nothin but time
And time won't give me time
Sun go east, sun go west
Sun go east, sun go west
You used to say love and be loved all the time
'Til you discovered feelings were a failure sign
When it rains, it rains so hard
The tears begin to show
Now it's raining in my heart
I want the world to know
Life will never be the same as it was again
Life will never be the same as it was again
Through my anger and my joy, my tears and pain
Life will never be the same as it was again
Beneath the sea of Hollywood where Frances used to reign
They trade their deepest wishes for a part in someone's game
Spirits die alone at night
For life they cannot hold
I would rather dance with you
Than have a medal to show
Life will never be the same as it was again
Life will never be the same as it was again
Through my anger and my joy, my tears and pain
Life will never be the same as it was again
Sun go east, sun go west
Will I wear a medal again
Sun go east, sun go west
We can dance and bring on the rain
Now I say love for love, not a space in time
The strangest things can shatter kings and take away what's mine
When it's raining in my heart
I want the world to know
I would rather dance with you
Than have a medal to show
Life will never be the same as it was again
Life will never be the same as it was again
Through my anger and my joy, my tears and pain
Life will never be the same as it was again
We are just everyday people, not a theatre company
Everyone wants to join us, there's no fear in us you see
It's me for you and you for me
Sun go east, sun go west
Will I wear a medal again
Sun go east, sun go west
No defeat
Your dance is sweet
Cause you ripped it from my soul
I'll kiss you
And we will throw a view
It's the only way to take control
Boy I'm sweet
When you've got me beat
I can't turn it
I feel cold
It's for you / that my love is true
Got to blind a boy
To take control
Take control (take it)
Take control (take it)
Take control (take it)
Take control
I was there
But you didn't care
And I know
You're using me
(If it's true get the best of you)
Take control (take it)
Take control (take it)
Take control (take it)
Take control
Take control (God would let this thing go)
Take control (God would let this thing go)
Take control (God would let this thing go)
Take control (take it)
Take control (take it)
Take control (take it)
Take control
Take control (God would let this thing go)
Take control (God would let this thing go)
Take control (God would let this thing go)
No defeat
Your dance is sweet
Cause you ripped it from my soul
I'll kiss you
And we will throw a view
How can I love you boy when you don?t even love yourself?
I?m useless now as I have always been
Just like some worthless love song dying on the radio
We talk in circles ?til we don?t know what we mean
No happy ever after, no big dark man
Ain?t no perfect situation, can?t you understand
Loving you is some strange voodoo
Loving you is some strange voodoo
How can I help you boy when I can barely help myself?
I?m useless now as I have always been
Your lying eyes, your thieving hands, you?re such a rogue at times
But you will always be a part of me
No happy ever after, no big dark man
Ain?t no perfect situation, ain?t no master plan
Loving you is some strange voodoo
Loving you I keep loving you yes I do
Loving you is some strange voodoo
Loving you is some strange voodoo
No happy ever after, no big dark man, no
Ain?t no perfect situation, can?t you understand
Loving you is some strange voodoo
Loving you I keep loving you yes I do
Loving you is some strange voodoo
Loving you is some strange voodoo
Loving you
Loving you
Didn't know what time it was and the lights were low
I leaned back on my radio
"Some cat was layin' down some rock and roll, lotta soul", he said
Then the loud sound did seem to fade
Came back like a slow voice on a wave of phase
That weren't no DJ, that was hazy cosmic jive
There's a starman waiting in the sky
He'd like to come and meet us
But he thinks he'd blow our minds
There's a starman waiting in the sky
He's told us not to blow it
'Cause he knows it's all worthwhile
He told me
"Let the children lose it
Let the children use it
Let all the children boogie"
I had to phone someone, so I picked on you
Hey, that's far out so you heard him too
Switch on the TV, we may pick him up on channel two
Look out your window, I can see the light
If we can sparkle he may land tonight
Don't tell your papa or he'll get us locked up in fright
There's a starman waiting in the sky
He'd like to come and meet us
But he thinks he'd blow our minds
There's a starman waiting in the sky
He's told us not to blow it
'Cause he knows it's all worthwhile
He told me
"Let the children lose it
Let the children use it
Let all the children boogie"
Starman waiting in the sky
He'd like to come and meet us
But he thinks he'd blow our minds
There's a starman waiting in the sky
He's told us not to blow it
'Cause he knows it's all worthwhile
He told me
"Let the children lose it
Let the children use it
Let all the children boogie"
La la la la, la la la la
La la la la, la la la la
La la la la, la la la la
You can't bystand all the people
Stand them on their own
They will fall to pieces
So we watch them grow
Into strange and pretty faces
I don't know
Clutching to my lipstick traces
Watch them go
Make Mistake Number Three
It's strange how much it changes
How they want to know
How cynical are people
That's where children go
Dragged into a conversation
They can't hold
Its so sad but it prepares them
For the mould
Make Mistake Number Three
Why is my love like an ocean run dry?
And why is my love such a struggle with life?
You can't bystand all the people
Stand them on their own
They will fall to pieces
So we watch them grow
Into strange and pretty faces
I don't know
Clutching to my lipstick traces
Watch them go
Miss me
I know you'll miss me
I know you'll miss me blind
I know you'll miss me
I know you'll miss me
I know you'll miss me blind
Bet you got a good gun
Bet you know how
To have some fun
And then
You turn it around on me
Because I'm better
Than the rest of the men
I say you'll miss me
And you always do
I say you'll miss me
Now would I lie to you
Now there's no need
To demand
Grab my golden hand
I'll teach you
And you'll never be sure
If the way that you need
Is too much like greed
Decide if you are rich or you're poor
I know you'll miss me
I know you'll miss me
I know you'll miss me blind
Bet you make the fool run
Bet you know how
To make it last 4 ever
But you know
I'm never really sure
If you're just kissing to be clever
I say you'll miss me
And you always do
I say you'll miss me
Now would I lie to you
Because this love
That I have to give
Must be better than that kind
It can make you rich
It can make you poor
But I know that
You'll miss me blind
I know you'll miss me
I know you'll miss me
He's the mannequin of your dreams, you designed him
Nothing will stand in your way
A punch in the heart won't tear him apart
Neither will the things they say
'Cause he's a beggar, lover believer
You are just an innocent reader
He's the mannequin of your dreams, step inside him
Look at the world his way
Laughter is loud from the fool in the crowd
You'll crack his smile one day
Every dream must follow where we go
Don't let them shatter your ego
Ooh, mannequin, lover mannequin, my lover mannequin, whoa
Ooh, mannequin, lover mannequin, my lover mannequin, whoa
I gave you just a bit of my time
You lied and you committed a crime
To present my feelings with shallow meanings
How could you tear me apart?
I ain't true
Listen to what I'm telling you
He's the mannequin of your dreams, you denied him
Laughter and political sway
People are sweet but the primitive beat
Is always getting in my way
I can give you nothing but me though
It isn't what you want to see, oh
Ooh, mannequin, lover mannequin, my lover mannequin, whoa
Ooh, mannequin, lover mannequin, my lover mannequin, whoa
You don't have to touch it to know
Love is everywhere that you go
You don't have to touch it to feel
Love is every second we steal
Love is love, is nothing without you
Love is love, is everything you do
Open up your eyes
And you will see
Love is love, is everything to me
You don't have to touch it to be
Wrapped up in emotion like me
Everyone must feel how I do, yeah
Love is just to be close to you
Love is love, is nothing without you
Love is love, is everything you do
Open up your eyes
And you will see
Love is love, is everything to me
And you know that love is love
It's written in black and blue
And everything you say
Must bring her closer, closer to you
Ba ba
Ba ba
Ba ba
You don't have to touch it to know
Love is everywhere that you go
You don't have to touch it to feel
Love is every second we steal
Love is love, is nothing without you
Love is love, is everything you do
Open up your eyes
And you will see
Love is love, is everything to me
Love is love, is nothing without you
Dirty Babylon
You're nasty
Everyone said you are the don
Respected, rejected, down trodden and stunned
Hold up your head like the innocent one
Threaten my life, tell me my time will come
Babylon boy with the honey and gold
Robbing the black men, stories of old
Why tell the truth? I cannot be
I am the light that you never see
Oh, nothing more than the lion's roar
Gimme truth and understanding
Oh, nothing more than the lion's roar
The voice in your head said I am a thief
You stand on the land and you lie through your teeth
Babylon boy with the honey and gold
Robbing the black men, stories of old
Why tell them truth? I cannot be
I am the light that you never see
Oh, nothing more than the lion's roar
Gimme truth and understanding
Oh, nothing more than the lion's roar
Oh, nothing more than the lion's roar
Gimme truth and understanding
Oh, nothing more than the lion's roar
Gimme truth and understanding
You're nasty
I know you want to see me dead
You come on upon my head
I know you want to see me dead
You come on upon my head
Oh, nothing more than the lion's roar
Gimme truth and understanding
Oh, nothing more than the lion's roar
Oh, nothing more than the lion's roar
Gimme truth and understanding
Desert loving in your eyes all the way
If I listen to your lies would you say
I'm a man without conviction
I'm a man who doesn't know
How to sell a contradiction
You come and go, you come and go
Karma karma karma karma, karma chameleon
You come and go, you come and go
Loving would be easy if your colors were like my dream
Red gold and green, red gold and green
Didn't hear your wicked words everyday
And you used to be so sweet, I heard you say
That my love was an addiction
When we cling our love is strong
When you go you're gone forever
You string along, you string along
Karma karma karma karma, karma chameleon
You come and go, you come and go
Loving would be easy if your colors were like my dream
Red gold and green, red gold and green
Every day is like survival
You're my lover, not my rival
Every day is like survival
You're my lover, not my rival
I'm a man without conviction
I'm a man who doesn't know
How to sell a contradiction
You come and go, you come and go
Karma karma karma karma, karma chameleon
You come and go, you come and go
Loving would be easy if your colors were like my dream
Red gold and green, red gold and green
Karma karma karma karma, karma chameleon
You come and go, you come and go
Loving would be easy if your colors were like my dream
Red gold and green, red gold and green
Karma karma karma karma, karma chameleon

Somedays in more ways
I need the distractions
Fire/desire/love and reaction
HE MUST BE SOMEONE
Yes even me
SOMETHING FOR NOTHING
Some wish to see
Life beyond reason
Who will I be (who will I be)
I'M AFRAID OF ME
I'M AFRAID OF ME
Always survive days
Cut and discretion
Touched in a sane way
Leave no impression
HE MUST BE SOMEONE
Yes even you
FOOL MY DIRECTION
Some wish to see
Love without treason
Who will love me (who will love me)
I'M AFRAID OF ME
I'M AFRAID OF ME
(afraid to love you)
I'M AFRAID OF ME
I'M AFRAID OF ME

Downtown we'll drown
We're in our never splendor
Flowers
Showers
Who's got the new boy gender
I'll be your baby
I'll be your score
I'll run the gun for you
And so much more
I'LL TUMBLE 4 YA
I'LL TUMBLE 4 YA
I'LL TUMBLE 4 YA
I'LL TUMBLE 4 YOU
I'LL TUMBLE 4 YA
I'LL TUMBLE 4 YA
I'LL TUMBLE 4 YA
I'LL TUMBLE 4 YOU
Uptown their sound
Is like the native
You send her
Junction
Function
The boy with pop is slender
Did he say maybe
Or I'm not sure
He'll be a boy for you
But you need more
I'LL TUMBLE 4 YA
I'LL TUMBLE 4 YA
I'LL TUMBLE 4 YA
I'LL TUMBLE 4 YOU
I'LL TUMBLE 4 YA
I'LL TUMBLE 4 YA
I'LL TUMBLE 4 YA
I'LL TUMBLE 4 YOU
I GET A CRAZY FEELING
THAT CHASES IN MY HEAD
IT'S NOTHING THAT YOU DO TO ME
IT'S NOTHING THAT YOU SAID
IT'S LOVE IN STEREO
AND WHEN I CAN'T LET GO I SAY
I'll be your baby
I'll be your score
I'll run the gun for you
And so much more
I'LL TUMBLE 4 YA
I'LL TUMBLE 4 YA
I'LL TUMBLE 4 YA
I'LL TUMBLE 4 YOU
Downtown we'll drown
We're in our never splendor

You've got Hiroshima, going cough inside
You cheat and lie, just to survive
Shake the money tree, heed the warning signs
Where lovers lie, not parricides
What would you give to be the master of your life?
This struggle is such a waste of time, yours and mine
I give you these eyes that I see through
My blood, my money too
I'm not afraid to run to you 'cause I get lonely too
No one knows you, like I do
You've got Hiroshima, inside, where lovers lie
What would you give to be the master of your life?
'Cause struggle is such a waste of time, yours and mine
I give you these eyes that I see through
My blood, my money too
I'm not afraid to run to you 'cause I feel lonely too
No one knows you, like I do
What would you give to be the master of your life?
The struggle is such a waste of time, yours and mine
I give you these eyes that I see through
My blood, my money too
I'm not afraid to run to you 'cause I get lonely
I give you these eyes that I see through
My blood, my money too
I'm not afraid to run to you 'cause I get lonely too
I give you these eyes that I see through
My blood, my money too
United
(I get tired of speaking)
What if you're a lonely boy?
What if you're a broken man?
What if you're just tired of speaking?
I live with my heartache, you bet that I do
I'm sad and I'm shaken, I'm empty and so blue
Magical function, I gave it all to you
They say they'll never let you down
United we stand so tall
They say they'll never let you down
United we fall
What if you're a lonely boy?
What if you're a broken man?
What if you're just tired of speaking?
What if you're alone at night?
What if we're all heaven's children?
I grew up in darkness, my enemies few
I gave you my life, it was easy for you
No explanation, this boy has grown up too
That say they'll never let you down
United we stand so tall
They say they'll never let you down
United we stand so tall
They say they'll never let you down
United we fall
I believe the world should always be our standing ground
And I believe the world should hold us close
And spin this great big world around don't be scared at night alone
And spin this great big world around
What if you're a lonely boy?
What if you're a broken man?
What if you're just tired of speaking?
What if they break hearts for you?
(And I will never let go)
What if your intent is true?
(No matter how we control)
What if you're just tired of crying
(I will never let you go, no matter how we control)
Heaven's children
I was young but still I knew
People were just frightened too
I would talk, they would not hear me
I have been a lonely boy
I have been a broken man
Woman, thank you thank you
God thank you woman
What we have is something special
Something quite unique
What we have should last forever
Heaven at my feet
I would give the world to you
Or anything you need
There is nothing I won't do
Just promise that you'll never leave
God thank you woman
Thank you thank you
For the joy that you give to me
God thank you woman
Thank you thank you
For the joy that you give to me
In this world you are my pleasure
No one can compete
Happiness is hard to measure
Woman you're so sweet
I would give my heart to you
You're the air I breathe
There is nothing I won't do
Just promise that you'll never leave
God thank you woman
Thank you thank you
For the joy that you give to me
God thank you woman
Thank you thank you
For the joy that you give to me
When I'm alone at night I think of love
Well baby that's alright but it ain't enough
Won't you call me if you need me
I have loved
I would give the world to you
Or anything you need
Oh God thank you woman
Thank you thank you
You say that you're misunderstood
But you like it that way
Then you say you're lonely
Well that's the price you pay
And I don't think I love you
That's the cruelest game we play
But I love you that way
You're a perfect lover
Why don't you stay?
You're a perfect lover
Ain't it always that way
You feel a little twisted
You feel a little pain
You're a little hateful
Don't worry, you'll feel that way again
Cry, don't
Cry don't cry for me
You say that you're not beautiful
But you are in my eyes
You say my love's too heavy
Well that comes as no surprise
It's already over
There's nothing to say
It's already over
Give me time
To realize my crime
Let me love and steal
I have danced inside your eyes
How can I be real
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Precious kisses
Words that burn me
Lovers never ask you why
In my heart
The fires burning
Choose my color
Find a star
Precious people always tell me
That's a step
A step too far
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Words are few
I have spoken
I could waste a thousand years
Wrapped in sorrow
Words are token
Come inside and catch my tears
You've been talking but believe me
If its true
You do not know
This boy loves without a reason
I'm prepared to let you go
If its love you want from me
Then take it away
Everything is not what you see
It's over again
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Do you really want to hurt me
I was cold till you touched me
Fear had no place to hide
I felt nothing but sadness
Love is the great divide
Felt like someone was counting
The tears that rush from my eyes
I was broken and doubting
Love and my own sweet pride
Come clean, come clean
You know where you've been, slipping and stepping inside
Come clean, come clean
I know that's a dream, love is the divide
Felt a rush from the mountain
Oh Lord, I pushed you aside
I felt nothing but sadness
I'll be alone tonight
How can we lose? There's no laws to abuse
There was never more passion in crime
You took my hand, told me you'd understand
There'd be time, so much time
I was cold till you touched me
Fear had no place to hide
I felt nothing but sadness
Desolate loving in your eyes
You used to made my life so sweet
Step out like a god found child
I saw your eyes across the street
Ooh - I've been a foll to take you to be -
More than just kind, to stare -
Into a life of maybe, love -
Is hard to find
In the church of the poison mind
In the church of the poison mind
In the church of the poison mind
In the church of the poison mind
Watch me clinging to the beat
I had to fight to make it mine
That religion you can sink in neat
Just move your feet and you'll feel fine
Who would be the fool to maybe trade
A kiss in time, and who -
Am I to say that's crazy, love -
Will make you blind
In the church of the poison mind
In the church of the poison mind
In the church of the poison mind
In the church of the poison mind
Desolate loving in your eyes
You used to made my life so sweet
Step out like a god found child
I saw your eyes across the street
Ooh - I've been a foll to take you to be -
More than just kind, to stare -
Into a life of maybe, love -
Is hard to find
In the church of the poison mind
In the church of the poison mind
Many lives they come, many lives they go
Without reason
In my heart I know I cannot let go
Without reason
Little children don't you feel so sad
When you come home feeling lost and bad
You got a reason, oh you got a reason
Oh woman, I gave my heart to you
When I found out what you've been through
You got a reason, oh you got a reason
Many lives they come, many lives they go
Without a reason in your heart
How could you know?
In my heart I know I cannot let go
Without a reason in my heart
How could you know?
(I know)
When they find you crying sorrows tears
And it's too late after all these years
You got a reason, gimme that reason
It's boys be strong and girls be weak
But children, careful how you speak
You got a reason, gimme that reason
Many lives they come, many lives they go
Without a reason in your heart
How could you know?
In my heart I know I cannot let go
Gotta reason in my heart and don't you know?
I believe in love
I believe in you baby
What about love?
Give it to me, you gotta give me a reason baby
Little children don't you feel so bad
When you come home feeling lost and sad
You gotta reason
