You abandoned me
Love don't live here anymore
Just a vacancy
Love don't live here anymore
When you lived inside of me
There was nothin' I could conceive
That you wouldn't do for me
Trouble seemed so far away
You changed that right away, baby
You abandoned me
Love don't live here anymore
Just a vacancy
Love don't live here anymore
Love don't live here anymore
Just emptiness and memories
Of what we had before you went away
Found another place to stay, another home
You abandoned me
Love don't live here anymore
Just a vacancy, babe
Love don't live here anymore
In the windmills of my eyes
Everyone can see the loneliness inside me
Why'd you have to go away?
Don't you know I miss you so and need your love?
You abandoned me
Love don't live here anymore
Just a vacancy
Love don't live here anymore
You abandoned me
Love don't live here anymore
Just a vacancy, babe
Love don't live here anymore
No, no, no
You abandoned me
Love don't live here, live here, no, no
Just a vacancy, babe
Hey Joe,
Where you goin' with that gun in your hand.
Hey Joe,

I caught her messin' `round with another man.
Hey Joe,
I heard you shot your lady down,
Hey Joe,
Joe, I heard you shot your lady down,
Shot her down town.
Yes I did, I shot her.
'Cause I caught my woman foolin 'round
So I shot her down town.
She gave me the gun,
And I shot her.
Heeeeeeey Jooooooooe!
Well Hey Joe,
Where you gonna run to now?
Well Hey Joe,
Joe, where you gonna run to now?
Where ya gonna run to?
I'm goin' way down south.
Way down Mexico way.
I said-a,
I'm goin' way down south, baby,
Way down where I can be free.
Ain't no-one gonna find me.
Ain't gonna,
Ain't no hangman gonna,
Ain't no hangman that's gonna put a noose around me.
No no ain't no-one gonna find me,
No-one gonna find me.
Hey Joe,
Said there ain't no hangman who gonna,
No, no.
No, no.
No, no-ho.
Hey Joe,
No, no, don't go.
This is our fork in the road
Love's last episode
There's nowhere to go, oh no
You made your choice, and now it's up to me
I need to bow out gracefully
Though you hold the key, baby
Whenever you call me, I'll be there
Whenever you want me, I'll be there
Whenever you need me, I'll be there
I'll be around
I knew just what to say
'Cause I found out today
That all the words had slipped away, I know
There's always a chance, a tiny spark remains
And my sparks turn into flames, oh
And our love burn once again, yes I know
Whenever you call me, I'll be there
Whenever you want me, I'll be there
Whenever you need me, I'll be there
I'll be around
Whenever you call me, I'll be there
Whenever you want me, I will be there
Whenever you need me, I'll be there
I'll be around
Just call me at home, I'll be there
I'll never leave you home alone, I'll be there
Just call out my name, I'll be there
I'll be around
Whenever you want me, I will be there
Whenever you want me, I will be there
Just call out my name, I'll be there
I'll be around
Whenever you want me
Whenever you call me
Lookin' back over my years
I guessed, I've shedded some tears
I told myself time and time again
This time I'm gonna win
But another fight, things ain't right
I'm losin' again
Takes a fool to lose twice
And start all over again
Think I'd better let it go
Looks like another love T.K.O.
I think I'd better let it go, let it go, baby
Looks like another love T.K.O.
Tried to take control of the love
Love took control of me
'Cause I lose all thoughts, sense of time
And have a change of mind
Takin' the bumps and the bruises
Of all the things of a two-time loser
Tryin' to hold on, my faith is gone
It's just another sad song
I think I'd better let it go
What you see about it?
Looks like another love T.K.O.
Think I'd better let it go
Let it go, baby
Looks like another love T.K.O.
I think I'd better let it go, let it go
Tried to take control of this love
That took control of me
'Cause you lose all thoughts, sense of time
And have a change of mind
Takin' the bumps and the bruises
Of all the things of a two-time loser
See, I'm tryin' to hold on, but my faith is gone
It's just another sad song
I don't want to but I better but I need to let it go baby
Let it go baby
Tried to hold on boy but I need to let it go
I still love you baby, I still want you baby
But I gotta let it go
Takin' the bumps and the bruises
Of all the things of a two-time loser
Tried to hold on, my faith is gone
It's just another sad song
And I think I'd better let it go
(Let it go)
'Cause it looks like another love T.K.O.
(Oh yeah baby)
I think I'd better let it go, let it go, baby
If I know what's right for me, baby
Looks like another love T.K.O.
Think I'd better let it go
Looks like another love T.K.O.
And I think I'd better let it go
(Let it go)
'Cause it looks like another love T.K.O.
Think I'd better let it go
Looks like another love T.K.O.
There used to be a greying tower alone on the sea.
You became the light on the dark side of me.
Love remained a drug that's the high and not the pill.
But did you know,
That when it snows,
My eyes become large and,
The light that you shine can be seen.
Baby,
I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey.
Ooh,
The more I get of you
Stranger it feels, yeah.
And now that your rose is in bloom,
A light hits the gloom on the grey.
There is so much a man can tell you,
So much he can say.
You remain,
My power, my pleasure, my pain.
Baby, to me you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny
Won't you tell me is that healthy, baby?
But did you know,
That when it snows,
My eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen.
Baby,
I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey.
Ooh, the more I get of you
stranger it feels, yeah.
Now that your rose is in bloom.
A light hits the gloom on the grey,
I've been kissed by a rose on the grey,
I've been kissed by a rose
...And if I should fall, at all
I've been kissed by a rose
There is so much a man can tell you,
So much he can say.
You remain
My power, my pleasure, my pain.
To me you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny
Won't you tell me is that healthy, baby.
But did you know,
That when it snows,
My eyes become large and,
the light that you shine can be seen.
Baby,
I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey.
Ooh, the more I get of you
Stranger it feels, yeah
Now that your rose is in bloom,
A light hits the gloom on the grey.
Yes I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey.
Ooh, the more I get of you
stranger it feels, yeah.
Now that your rose is in bloom.
A light hits the gloom on the grey,
Northern son
We're walking down that same avenue
Throw me a lifeline, won't you please
I'm watching the news, but I'm not at ease
Throw me a lifeline, won't you please
Come to the place where I used to play
And put on your peace wires for a day
Look at the radios in the sun
Can you let it pass you by?
Heavenly, can't you see?
Feels like yesterday's here now
Heavenly, trust in me
Feels like yesterday now
I look at the world and it's heavenly
I see a miracle place to be
Why is it anyone has to die?
Did they ever ask you why?
When will you talk about being free?
Pain isn't all that it's meant to be
Hanging another one out to dry
Is there any reason why?
Heavenly, can't you see?
Feels like yesterday's here now
Heavenly, trust in me
Feels like yesterday now...
Warring feeling
Feel like waking up again
Warring feeling
Feel like waking up again
Northern son
We're walking down that same avenue
I look at the world and it's heavenly
All of the things that it's meant to be
Some of the suffering all divine
Hearing Mother Nature cry
Loving the river more
I'm a survivor
Loving the river more
I like staying alive
Why don't you show me a little more?
Hearing your mother call
Anyone can feel
Heavenly, can't you see?
'Cause it feels like yesterday's here now
Heavenly, trust in me
Feels like yesterday now
Heavenly...
Mother, mother
There's too many of you crying
Brother, brother, brother
There's far too many of you dying
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some lovin' here today - Yeaaah
Father, father
We don't need to escalate
You see, war is not the answer
For only love can conquer hate
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some lovin' here today
Picket lines and picket signs
Don't punish me with brutality
Talk to me, so you can see
Oh, what's going on
What's going on
Ya, what's going on
Ah, what's going on
In the mean time
Right on, baby
Right on
Right on
Father, father, everybody thinks we're wrong
Oh, but who are they to judge us
Simply because our hair is long
Oh, you know we've got to find a way
To bring some understanding here today
Picket lines and picket signs
Don't punish me with brutality
Talk to me
So you can see
What's going on
Ya, what's going on
Tell me what's going on
I'll tell you what's going on - Uh
Right on baby
Mother, mother
Father, father
Brother, brother, brother
What's going on
People get ready
There's a train a-coming
You don't need no baggage
You just get on board
All you need is faith
To hear the diesels humming
Don't need no ticket
You just thank the Lord
People get ready
For the train to Jordan
Picking up passengers
From coast to coast
Faith is the key
Open the doors
And board them
There's room for all
Among the loved the most
There ain't no room
for the hopeless sinner
Who would hurt
All mankind just
To save his own
Have pity on those
whose chances are thinner
Cause there's no
Hiding place
From the Kingdom's Throne
So people get ready
For the train a-comin'
You don't need no baggage
You just get on board
All you need is faith
To hear the diesels humming
Don't need no ticket
You just thank
You just thank the Lord
Yeah
Ooh....

You're always on my mind, (day and night) day and night
When I think of you boy, everything feels so right
Well I often think of the happy times we spent together
And I just can't wait to tell you that I love you
Time keeps passing by, (you're not here) you're not here
I feel so all alone when I don't have you near
But I often think of the happy times we spent together
And I just can't wait (just can't wait) to tell you that I love you
I'm missing my baby, (missing my baby) missing my baby
I gotta hold you tight, and never let you out of my sight
Missing my baby, (missing my baby) missing my baby
I gotta feel your heart beat (your heart beat) next to mine
Gotta feel it
Time keeps passing by, (you're not here) you're not here
I feel so all alone when I don't have you near
Well I often think of the happy times we spent together
And I just can't wait (just can't wait) to tell you that I love you
I'm missing my baby, (missing my baby) missing my baby
I gotta hold you tight, and never let you out of my sight
Missing my baby, (missing my baby) missing my baby
I gotta feel your heart beat next to mine
Sometimes at night when I go to sleep
I hold my pillow tight,
thinking of you 'til is hurts
But in my mind, I know you're mine
And somewhere you're thinking of me too
Gotta have you (have you), gotta hold you (hold you)
Got to have your lovin' (I gotta have you)
And tell you that I love you
And I really miss you (I miss you)...
The time is right
You hold me tight, love's got me high
Please tell me, yes
And don't say no, honey, not tonight
I need to have you next to me
In more ways than one
And I refuse to leave 'til I see the morning sun
Creep through your window pane
'Cause love won't let me wait, listen girl
The time is right
To turned down the lights and take my hand
We'll take a flight
We'll spend the night, honey, in a wonderland
So, now move a little closer to me
'Cause you owe it to yourself
And I will selfishly take a little for myself
And it's because of you
That love won't let me wait
Oh, not for one minute, girl, ooh
And I need your love so desperately
And only you can set me free
When I make love to you
We'll explode in ecstasy
You and I, we'll explode in ecstasy
And I won't take the blame
That love won't let me wait, no
'Til love won't let me wait
I said love won't let me wait
Oh darling, oh love won't let me wait
I said love won't let me wait
I, I'm so in love with you
Whatever you want to do
Is alright with me
You make me feel so in you
And I wanna spend my whole life with you
Let the senses since we're been together
Loving forever is what I need, yeah
Let me be the one who come harder to
'Cause I'll never be a true, ooh

Time's good or bad, happy or sad

Happy or sad and why somebody tell me

I just can't see, ooh, and you never do
And let to me, now would you baby
Beat it around you is all I see
That's what I wanna do
Let's, let's stay together
Loving you with you whether whether
Time's good or bad, happy or sad
Let's, let's stay together
Loving you with you whether whether
Time's good or bad, happy or sad
Let's, let's stay together
Loving you with you whether whether
Time's good or bad, happy or sad
Sometimes in our lives
We all have pain, we all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow
Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long, till I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on
Please swallow your pride
If I have things you need to borrow
For no one can fill
Those of your needs that you won't let show
You just call on me, brother, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on

If you just call me, oh
Call me, when you need a friend
Call me, when you need a hand
Call me, call me, call me
Call me, call me, call me
Spending my day
Thinking 'bout you girl being here with you
Being near with you, can't explain myself
I feel like I do, though it hurt me so
To let you know when I look in your eyes
And if you let me know how you feel
Let me know if this love is really real
But it seems to me
That I'm wrapped up in your love
Don't you know that I'm still in love
Sho' 'nuff in love with you, hey
Heaven knows that I'm still in love
In love with you, hey
Hey, hey, when I look in your eyes
Aw, for all the years I see
Me loving you and you loving me, hey seem to me
That I'm still wrapped up in your love
Don't you know that I'm still in love
Sho' 'nuff in love with you, hey I'm, I'm
To know that I'm still in love
Sho' 'nuff in love with you, hey
Yeah, I try if you want me to, I'm, I'm
I can't believe that it's real
The way that you make me feel
A burning deep down inside
A love that I cannot hide
Our love is you and me baby
That makes the world go 'round
And if you've been doin' lovin' with me
Layin' all my troubles down
Here I am, baby
Come and take me
Here I am, baby
Come and take me
Take me by the hand
Show me
Here I am, baby
It always ends up this way
Me begging you every day
A love that I cannot have
You broke my heart into half
Our love is you and me baby
That makes the world go 'round
And if you've been doin' lovin' with me
Layin' all my troubles down
Here I am, baby
Come and take me
Here I am, baby
Come and take me
Take me by the hand
Squeeze me
Here I am, baby
When I'm down
I can always call you
For a helpin' hand
I know you'll do the best you can
But it don't take much from me
Just my cup of Joe
Oh there's love inside me
I believe there's going to be an explosion
It's tough for me, oh baby
I can do worry
Tell me all your troubles
You won't ever have to worry now
Just one more thing, ask everybody
Everybody you see, no, no
You'll find yourself lost
And alone on a darkened street
Here I am, baby
Come and take me
Here I am, baby
Come and take me
Take me by the hand
Show me
Here I am, take me
Here I am, show me, won't you
Here I am, baby
Come and take me
Won't you teach me, baby?
Won't you take me by the hand?
Teach me
Here I am, baby

To follow what it means
And I'm wishing on the rainbows that I've seen
I'm wishing on the people who really dream
And I'm wishing on tomorrow, praying it'll comes
And I'm wishing on all the loving we've ever done
No, I never thought I'd see
A time when you would be
So far away from home
So far away from me
Just think of all the moments that we'd spent
I just can't let you go, for me you were meant
And I didn't mean to hurt you, but I know
That in the game of love you reap what you sow
I feel it's time we should make up, baby
I feel it's time for us to get back together
And make the best of things, oh baby
When we're together, whether or never
I feel it's time we should make up, baby
I feel it's time for us to get back together
And make the best of things, oh baby
When we're together, whether or never, oh
I'm wishing on a star
To follow where you are

To follow what it means
And I'm wishing on the rainbows that I've seen
I'm wishing on the people who've ever been
And I'm hoping on all the days to come and days to go
I'm hoping on days of loving you so
I'm wishing on a star
To follow where you are
I'm wishing on a star, oh, oh
And I'm wishing on all the rainbows that I see

Don't turn your back on what you think you know
You never know you know
Don't leave it alone
Cause I need you to cling to
[Chorus:]
Cause you are my kind
You're all that I want
Here in this life
Until we are gone
Our breath and our skin
Our hearts and our minds
They're one and the same
You are my kind
Well call on me baby
If you should ever need someone
To help get your head straight
I'll be your resident all night
Sure am glad just having you around

When you find love you never let it go
You never know you know
Without you I'm lost
I get scattered
I'm shattered
[Chorus:]

Here in this life
Until we are gone
Our breath and our skin
Our hearts and our minds
They're one and the same

Don't turn your back on what you think you know
You never know you know
Don't leave it alone
Cause I need you to cling to
[Chorus:]
Cause you are my kind
You're all that I want
Here in this life
Until we are gone
Our breath and our skin
Our hearts and our minds
They're one and the same
Cause you are my kind
[Bridge]
I love and our life
My heart and my soul
Need you tonight
Your love makes me whole
And it's all I can stand
Until you come home
I need you tonight
Cause you are my kind
I need you tonight
Cause you are my kind
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh you are my kind
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh you are my kind
Why, am I changing?
Why do people, get complacent with the things they're told?
World disasters they come and go.
I'd give anything just to be back home.
Cause there are people, asking why.
There are people, who believe in...
In life, gets confusing but I don't know why.
But I've made my plans already.
Had this trouble with it all my life.
Well world disasters, they come and go.
I'd give all my strength to be back home
Cause there are people, asking why
There are people asking...
How do I get to where I've come from, now?
How will I paint this garden I've destroyed, green?
Can I get back to where I've come from?
Cause there are people, who believe in life.
Well how do we get to where we come from?
Peace and love ain't enough these days.
Evolution says time is running out,
We've been here too long..."
Cause there are people, asking why
Ohh, there are people, asking...
How do I get to where I've come from, now?
How will I paint this garden I've destroyed, green?
Can I get back to where I come from?
Cause there are people, who believe it.
How do I get to where I've come from, now?
How do I paint this garden I've destroyed, green?
Can I get back to where I've come from?
Cause there are people, who believe it
How do I get to where I've come from, now?
How will I paint this garden I've destroyed, green?
Can I get back to where I've come from?
Cause there are people, who believe it
How can I get back to where I've come from, now...?
How do I get back to where I've come from, now?
Oh girl, I'd be in trouble if you left me now
'Cause I don't know where to look for love
I just don't know how
Oh girl, how I depend on you
To give me love when I need it
Right on time you will always be
All my friends call me a fool
They say, 'Let the woman take care of you'
So I try to be hip and think like the crowd
But even the crowd can't help me now
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh girl, tell me what am I gonna do
I know I've got a guilty face
Girl, I feel so out of place, oh yeah, yeah
Don't know where to go and who to see, yeah
All my friends call me a fool
They say, 'Let the woman take care of you'
So I try to be hip and think like the crowd
But even the crowd can't help me now
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh girl, I guess I better go
I can save myself a lot of useless tears
Girl, I've gotta get away from here
Oh girl, pain will double if you leave me now
I don't know where to look for love
And I don't, and I don't know how, no I don't
Better be on my way 'cause I just can't stay, oh yeah, yeah
Oh girl, why do I love you so?
I better be on my way, I can't stay, no
Tell me who am I gonna love
I don't know where to go, oh girl
Love dies
Chasin' away
Feels like I'm
Chasing nowhere
Doing whatever I feel
I just keep falling down
Rain against my window, sweet memories
I can't stand the rain against my window
Bringing back sweet memories
I can't stand the rain against my window
'Cause you're not here with me
Hey, window pain do you remember
How sweet it used to be?
When we were together everything was so grand
Now that we've parted there's one thing that I just can't stand
I can't stand the rain against my window
Bringing back sweet memories
I can't stand the rain against my window
How sweet it used to be
Empty pillow where our head used to lay
I know you've got some sweet memories
But like a window you ain't got nothing to say
I can't stand the rain, can't stand the rain
I can't stand the rain against my window
Bringing back sweet memories
I can't stand the rain against my window
Because she's not here with me
I can't stand the rain, I can't stand the rain
I can't stand the rain, said I just can't stand the rain, oh no
I can't stand the rain, said I just can't stand the rain, the rain, the rain
Here me say now I can't stand the rain
So strange
It's funny how
We came to meet
Those eyes uncanny
Were my invitation
I couldn't wait
I couldn't wait
To hold you like a baby
Is this what it feels like
You are here now
Oh but I
Can't seem to find our state of grace
Who knows tomorrow may never come
One touch, one look that is all it takes
These things forever change us
This is the sound of a feeling that's caught in my head
Makes me think about something you said
To take away my fears
Ohh I
This is the sound of a woken man
Why don't you tell me its you babe
I found you
You babe
Oh but I
Can't seem to find that state of grace
Who knows tomorrow may never come
One touch, one look that is all it takes
These things forever change us
Look at the past
No savoir faire
No that's not us
Oh but I
I can't seem to find my state of grace
Who knows tomorrow may never come
One touch, one look that is all it takes
These things forever change us
These things forever change us
These things
Look at the past
These things
No savoir fair
These things
I know that are ours
These things
Look at the past
Whoaa ohhh oohh ohhhhhh ohhh oohhh ohhha
Whoaa ohhh oohh ohhhhhh ohhh oohhh ohhha
Aaaahha
These things
She floats like a swan
Grace on the water
Lips like sugar
Lips like sugar
Just when you think you've caught her
She glides across the water
She calls for you tonight
To share this moonlight
You'll flow her river
She'll ask & you'll give her...
Lips like sugar
Sugar kisses
Lips like sugar
Sugar kisses
She knows what you know
I know what she's thinking
Sugar kisses, sugar kisses
Just when you think she's yours
She's flown to other shores
To laugh at how you break
And melt into this lake
You'll flow down her river
But you'll never give her...
Lips like sugar
Sugar kisses
Lips like sugar
Sugar kisses
She'll be my mirror
Reflect what I am
Loose women
The king of Siam
And my siamese twin
Alone in the river
Mirror kisses, mirror kisses...
Lips like sugar
Sugar kisses
Lips like sugar
Sugar kisses...

My love is growing stronger
As you become a habit to me
Ooh, I've been loving you too long
I don't wanna stop now, oh
With you my life has been so wonderful
I can't stop now
You are tired and your love is growing cold
My love is growing stronger
As our affair, affair grows old
I've been loving you oh too long
Don't want to stop now, oh, oh oh
I've been loving you a little too long
I don't wanna stop now, oh, oh

When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we'll see
No I won't be afraid, no I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
And darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh now now stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me
If the sky that we look upon
Should tumble and fall
And the mountains should crumble to the sea
I won't cry, I won't cry, no I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
And darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me, stand by me-e, yeah
Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me, oh now now stand by me
Oh stand by me, stand by me, stand by me
Darlin', darlin', stand by me-e, stand by me
Oh stand by me, stand by me, stand by me
Northern son
We're walking down that same avenue
Throw me a lifeline, won't you please
I'm watching the news, but I'm not at ease
Throw me a lifeline, won't you please
Come to the place where I used to play
And put on your peace wires for a day
Look at the radios in the sun
Can you let it pass you by?
Heavenly, can't you see?
Feels like yesterday's here now
Heavenly, trust in me
Feels like yesterday now
I look at the world and it's heavenly
I see a miracle place to be
Why is it anyone has to die?
Did they ever ask you why?
When will you talk about being free?
Pain isn't all that it's meant to be
Hanging another one out to dry
Is there any reason why?
Heavenly, can't you see?
Feels like yesterday's here now
Heavenly, trust in me
Feels like yesterday now...
Warring feeling
Feel like waking up again
Warring feeling
Feel like waking up again
Northern son
We're walking down that same avenue
I look at the world and it's heavenly
All of the things that it's meant to be
Some of the suffering all divine
Hearing Mother Nature cry
Loving the river more
I'm a survivor
Loving the river more
I like staying alive
Why don't you show me a little more?
Hearing your mother call
Anyone can feel
Heavenly, can't you see?
'Cause it feels like yesterday's here now
Heavenly, trust in me
Feels like yesterday now
Heavenly...
It is only love I feel
That will give us peace of heart
In my hour of desperate need
I feel closer to the one
Oh but why...
Please
Human being
If you bleed
they will say it was destined
They'll be punchin' tickets
By the minute if you fall out of line
desperate
desperate
Tell me is it death you feel
That will bring you peace of life.
Who wants
Tell me you're one of us
Tell me you're one
Tell me you're one of us
Tell me you're one
When you lose your self esteem
That's when love dies...
Ohhh...
Please human being
If you bleed
They will say that it's destined
They'll be punchin' tickets
By the minute if you fall out of line
We're mere human beings we die
So...
So...destined desperate
Well I feel
When you've reached number one
You look like you're puffing but
Really only blocking the sun...
Blocking the sun
Blocking the sun
We're mere human beings
We die
It's destined
They'll be punchin' tickets
By the minute you fall out of life
We're mere human beings we die
We're mere human beings we die
Desperate
It's destined
We're mere human beings we die
desperate
it's destined
destined
Can't you see it's only life?
And after all the Jacks are in their boxes,
And the clowns have all gone to bed.
You can hear the happiness staggering on downstream,
Footprints dressed in red.
And the wind whispers Mary.
A broom is drearily sweeping,
Up the broken pieces of yesterday's life.
Somewhere a Queen is weepin',
Somewhere a King has no wife.
And the wind cries Mary.
Mary.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
The traffic lights they turn blue tomorrow,
And shine their emptiness down on my bed,
Their tiny island sags on downstream,
'Cause the life that lived is dead.
And the wind screams Mary.
Now will that wind ever remember,
All those names it has blown in the past.
Now with its crutch, its old age and its wisdom,
It whispers "No, this will be the last".
And the wind screams Mary.
Mary.
The perils of loneliness
The pleasures of love
That we find
The arguement's immenent
The look on her face
As we cry
There's nothing when you fall alone
There's hate when you fall by the side
You know that I didn't mean to hurt you love
I just need some light
On my life
But when a man is wrong
Facing all the mistakes
That he's done
There can be no right
Now if I was a holy man
And you were the devil in a song
And if I liked what you played
Does that mean you're right and I'm wrong
Know there's danger in serenade, my friend
There's even love if you find what you want
And there's reason to be afraid
And reason to open your heart
But when a man is wrong
Facing all the mistakes
That he's done
There can be no right
Oh my friend
I sometimes get things wrong to get things right
Oh my friend
You know I sometimes get things wrong to get things right
Oh my friend
When a man is wrong
Facing all the mistakes that are done
When a man, when this man is wrong
There can be no right
Walk On By
If you see me walking down the street
And I start to cry, each time we meet
Walk on by
Make believe that you don't see the tears
Yes let me grieve in private
'Cos each time I see you I break down and cry
Oh walk on by
I just can't get over losing you
And if I seem broken in two
Walk on by
Foolish pride, that's all I have left
So let me hide the tears and the sadness
You gave me when you said goodbye
Oh walk on by
Stupid pride that's all I have left
So let me hide the tears and the sadness
You gave me when you said goodbye
Oh walk on by
You know you really got to go
So walk on by
Baby leave me never see the tears I cry
Know you really go to go so walk on by
Baby babe, I'm all weak from talking
And if I stay too long
People try to slow me down
They talk about me like a dog
They talk about the clothes I wear
But they don't realize
They're the ones who're square
So that's why
They can't slow me down
I don't want to be slowed down
I gotta move on
Stone free
To do as I please
Stone free
To ride with the breeze
Stone free
To do as I say
I gotta gotta gotta get away
C'mon
Woman here, woman there
Try to keep me in a plastic cage
But they don't realize
It's so easy to break
Oh but sometimes I get hot
Just trying to get out of here
Oh, but they don't realize
They're the ones who're square
So that's why
They can't slow me down
I don't want to be slowed down
I gotta move on
Ohh!
Stone free
To do as I please
Stone free
To ride with the breeze
Stone free
To do as I say
I gotta gotta gotta get away
From here...
Hold back
Round and round and round we go
Hold me my darlin'
Don't be late
Oh for the show
Stone free
To do as I please
Stone free
To ride with the breeze
Stone free
To do as I say
I gotta gotta gotta get away
Stone free
To do as I please
Stone free
Just to ride with that breeze
Stone free
To do as I say
You get me
If I say no, if I resist
If I don't give in to this
Would it be a lesson or a loss?
Suddenly I know what it's about
Thoughts come in, and words come out
Suddenly I'm not killing time
It's all over now
You get me
You get me
Like a beautiful song
You heard a million times
Like the rainbows end
You can never find
You get me
You get me
If I say yes, if I let go
And face the consequence I'll know
Will it lead to living with regret?
Suddenly the walls are coming down
I wont be the same when I come around
Suddenly I am understood
It's all over now
You get me
You get me
Like a crimson sunset
Where the sky meets sea
Like no one alive
But lives in my dreams
You get me
You get me
You get me
You get me
Like a beautiful song
You heard a million times
Like the rainbows end
You can never find
It's hard to ignore
And undeniable, too
This feeling inside
When I look at you
You get me
How will I stand
If you turn out the light
That shines over me
That shines over me
And how will I live
If you take all the give
That you have for me
That you have for me
Without so madly
Without so fast
Yet still we remain
How will I love
If you take all the life
From out of me
Right from out of me
Tell me how will I live
If you take all the give
That you give to me
We burned so brightly
Love so fast
Yet still we remain
Ohhhh
'Cause we'll live
And we give
Today
I yeah
But dontcha know
You know
You know
You know
I know
You know
And I said
Now dontcha know
You know
You know
You know
I know
You know
And I said
Now dontcha know
You know
You know
You know
I know
You know
Tell me how will I live
With anyone but you
Babe
Anyone but you babe
With anyone but you
With anyone but you
Silence in your voice
Screaming I've no
Choice 'cause I'm angry
Angry and lonely
Silence while you steal
Feeding from the
Will of my babies
My one and only's
So, wish I could make you see
The harm in what you did
But I never hear you scream
Dumb-da-dumb-dumb-dumb [2x]
Silence while you win
Gleaming like a
Toe dying ugly
Rocks in you belly
There's silence every day
'Cause I know that there's no
Way I can save you
'Cause you won your own blue
But true remain
So, wish I could make you see
The harm in what you did
But I never hear you scream
Dumb-da-dumb-dumb-dumb [8x]
Whoa, the lonely, I sing this for you only
Whoa, the lonely, a freind that I once knew
Whoa, the lonely, if you and me if only
For a friend I once knew
A friend I once knew
Yeah...
Puff, the magic dragon,
Lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist
In a land called Honah Lee.
Little Jackie Paper
Loved that rascal Puff,
And brought him strings and sealing wax
And other fancy stuff.
Puff, the magic dragon
Lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist
In a land called Honah Lee. Oh!
Puff, the magic dragon
Lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist
In a land called Honah Lee.
Together they would travel
On a boat with billowed sail.
Jackie kept a lookout perched
On Puff's gigantic tail.
Noble kings and princes
Would bow whenever they came,
Pirate ships would lower their flags
When Puff roared out his name. Oh!
Puff, the magic dragon
Lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist
In a land called Honah Lee. Oh!
Puff, the magic dragon
Lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist
In a land called Honah Lee.
A dragon lives forever,
But not little girls and boys.
Painted wings and giant rings
Make way for other toys.
One grey night it happened,
Jackie Paper came no more
And Puff that mighty dragon,
He ceased his fearless roar.
His head now bent in sorrow,
Green scales fell like rain,
And Puff no longer went to play
Along that cheery lane.
Without his life-long friend,
He could not be brave,
So Puff that mighty dragon
Sadly slipped into his cave.
Puff, the magic dragon
Lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist
In a land called Honah Lee. Oh!
Puff, the magic dragon
Lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist
In a land called Honah Lee
I met an angel,
I was so petrified.
And through the angel,
I saw the essence of life.
But she's gone now.
Yeah she's gone now.
Still I go on.
I walk the main street,
With a cloak over me.
She bears her soul,
For all in suffering to see.
But she's gone now,
Yeah she's gone now.
And I stare...
Out of the window,
I see trouble, I see all that is wrong.
Out of the window,
I see war and I think what's going on.
Out of the window,
There's a fight involving all my friends.
Out of the window...
Out of captivity,
And into the arms of peace.
For their comfort and love.
For when love comes,
And everything goes with it.
Like the calm before the storm.
Be she's gone now.
Yeah she's gone now.
Still I stare...
Out of the window,
I see trouble, I see all that is wrong.
Out of the window,
I see war and I think what's going on.
Out of the window,
There's a fight involving all my friends.
Out of the window...
Through that window.
And it hurts like hell, yeah.
You've been gone a long time,
Left your keys but you didn't leave no trace.
If that means you need time honey,
Then take time,
Ho lord... Oh lord.
Now I regret it,
Baby only I know what you need.
I'll be the one there kissing you off,
When you leave...
Yeah,
Looking though my window.
Yeah.
Out of my window.
Out of my window.
I'm looking though my window.
Through my window,
It looks like pain....... yeah, na-na-now.
...pain... yeah, na-na-now.
Picture the sky that is how high I reach
So far alive none have been right for me
But your love, is a chance of love to take
With each breathe in me I wake
If it brings you back to me
Because I'm free and in love
I'm the loneliest star from the sun
But I feel that I'm close to than one
It will stop me from becoming undone
Cause I'm free
I have been close
I have been almost real (who do you really want to make it, who do you want to kill)
But city light
But nothing quite like here (who do you really want to be right here)
Your love, (your love) is a life that binds us both, (your love)
With each breathe in me that I hold
We will throw it all away
Don't you know that I'm free and in love
I'm the loneliest star from the sun
But I feel that I'm close to than one
It will stop me from becoming undone
(With your love), I know that I can be the best with, (With your love), I know that I can take a risk with (With your
love), I can fly away love, (With your love, With your love), I feel alone to try and mess with, (With your love), you and I
can be possessed with (With your love), I can try for you now (With your love)
Don't you know that I'm free and in love
I'm the loneliest star from the sun
But I feel that I'm close to than one
It will stop me from becoming undone
Cause I'm free, don't you know I'm free
Hmmmmmmmmmmmm
I am
So unsure
Every minute that waits
Every second that I'm away
From you
And love
Is a way that
Has no rules
Know that I'm loving you
Even if it's
A fool that waits in vain
Waits in vain
Yesterday it hit me
I felt we were slipping away
Say you if you can it's okay
Just like you said way then
Sometimes I fall
And I feel like
I don't know the way
Say if you can it's okay
Just like you said then
Just like you said
Now my days become long
Okay
I know I'll never feel the same again
So please
Don't let
My lows bring you down
Always know that
I need you
Yes I do....oh
Yesterday it hit me
I felt we were slipping away
Say if you can
It's okay
Just like you said way then
Sometimes I fall and I feel like
I don't know the way
Won't you say if you can
It's okay
Just like you said then
Just like you said.... oh
Ohhhhhh .....
My my my my my again
Yesterday it hit me
I felt you were slipping
Away
Say if if you can it's okay
Just like you said way then
Sometimes I fall and I feel
I don't know the way
Won't you say if you can
it's okay
Just like you said then
Just like you said.... oh
Just like you said then
Just like you said.... oh
Just like you said way back then
I may dream of
Who comes tumblin' out of the sky
Trees beneath, sometimes
I'm wonderin' if I've come too high
Did I forget
My keys, my facts, my phone, my head
And, oh, some cash, remind me
Darling, definitely
I can hear you ask me why
Well, it could be
This is all in my head
Yes, it could be
What I need lies ahead
If I'm any closer I will be here
I can feel but I can't see
To tell you the truth I'm not the only one
Who's tried to find that key
I'm so loud that
I am climbin' out of my mind
Walls are crumblin'
I got out, I made it just in time
Well, it could be
This is all in my head
Yes, it could be
Something we might have read
If I'm any closer I will be here
I can feel but I can't see
To tell you the truth I'm not the only one
Who's tried to find that key
If I'm any closer I will be here
I can feel but I can't see
To tell you the truth I'm not the only one
Who's tried to find that key
If I'm any closer I will be here
I can feel but I can't see
To tell you the truth I'm not the only one
Who's tried to find that, tried to find that
Are we tired of feeling blue
Can I get along with you
Just don't tell me try
Every time we fuss and fight
What I really try to say
Is I won't be afraid, yah
If you say you're willing too
Close your eyes and maybe - maybe see it through
Don't make me wait long
Sounds like a sad song of mine
Every time we meet baby on the street there we go
Always seem to fight why we do I never now that
All I can take
'Cause you ain't easy
Some kind of read
That's life, get back together, every time
It amazes me to say, yah
I've been so tired to find my way, close to you
To love divine is what I - what I'm gonna do
Yah, What I'm really trying to say
Is love won't deny me, cause everyday is like a newly day
Lovin' till the end yah yah yah yah:.
Don't make me wait long
Sounds like a sad song of mine
Every time we meet baby on the street there we go
Always seem to fight why we do I never now that
All I can take
'Cause you ain't easy
Some kind of read
So I dream of
And dream of
And dream of
And dream of your life
And dream of
And that's how we make love
And we dream of
And dream of
And dream of
And dream through the night
Don't make me wait long
Don't make me wait long
Every time we meet baby on the street there we go
Always seem to fight why we do, I never now that
All I can take
'Cause you ain't easy
Some kind of read, hey
Why must I explain the way I feel
From my head to my feet
And why do you pay truth to what they're telling you
It's me you should believe
I can't tell you I feel sure
But I know the way that I feel now
All that I am asking for is
Just the chance to love you more
I wanna come home to you
I would do it all if
You would put your faith, you'll see
We're half the lives that we could be
I'll build this castle for you
I would do it all for love
How can I exchange the words I said
When I hear they're my dream?
So do what you must do to throw them back at me
And you are where I can't see
When you're with me, feel secure
Don't you know the way that I feel now?
All that I am asking for is
Just the chance to love you more
I wanna come home to you
I would do it all if
You would put your faith, you'll see
We're half the lives that we could be
I'll build this castle for you
I would do it all if
Ooh, you would believe it
You know you better believe it now
Ooh, you better believe it
You know that you better believe it now
All that I am asking for is
Just the chance to hold you more
I wanna come home to you
I would do it all if
You would put your faith, you'll see
We're half the lives that we could be
I'll build this castle for you
We both know
That the harder we try
Can't understand it
We're so caught up in the reasons why
Station to station
And we couldn't even say their names
I realized it
Was just a game
I had lost my faith
Long ago
I had lost my faith
Long ago
I can see
That if I stay close to your side
All of my pressures now
I know they will subside
If ever you need me
All you gotta do is fall
I hear you sayin'
That you got it all
I had lost my faith
Long ago
I had lost my faith
Long ago
A stranger so it seems
I lie here for you touch
But what I'd like to know
Is why do I want you so much
You say that's all the same
All through my life
I have
Waited for you
Have you waited too
are you feeling what I'm feeling
Ohhhh.... I
I had lost my faith
Long ago
I had lost my faith long ago
I had lost my faith
Long ago
I had lost my faith
Long ago
I lost my faith
I lost my faith
I lost my faith
Love serenade,
Soothe me with the morning sun.
Help me find someone,
Peaceful and non-judgemental.
Holdin' me back,
And make me feel whole with life.
And stay the same.
Life.
Without the pain.
Why must we dream in metaphors?
Try to hold on to something we couldn't understand.
Couldn't understand.
And why must we argue loudly?
When peace is our one salvation.
I couldn't understand
Couldn't understand
Yeah...
Ohh, ohh ohh, ohh ohh, ohh ohh
Ohh, ohh ohh, ohh ohh, ohh ohh
Someone lost their faith in, seeking God so they.
Turn to the needle, back to the cradle. They were...
Rocking it all too long.
Tell me what's going on with your life.
Has it stayed the same?
Well why do we dream in metaphors?
Try to hold on to something we couldn't understand.
Couldn't understand.
Tell me why must we argue loudly? When peace is our one,
Salvation I couldn't understand
Couldn't understand
Yeah
Ohh, ohh ohh ohh ohh
Ohh, ohh ohh ohh ohh ohhh...
Life will always stay the same
Life stay the same
Life will ease your pain
...life without no......pain or shame...
Why must we dream in metaphors?
We're trying to hold on to something we couldn't understand.
Couldn't understand
Tell me why must we argue loudly when peace is our one
Salvation I couldn't understand
Couldn't understand
Now why must we dream in metaphors
Something that's lost
...couldn't understand stand stand, I couldn't understand.
And you know I know I couldn't understand I just couldn't understand.
...Couldn't understand stand stand, I couldn't understand.
And you know I couldn't understand, I just couldn't understand.
Couldn't understand stand stand,
I couldn't understand
And you know I know I couldn't understand,
I just couldn't understand
Couldn't understand stand stand,
I couldn't understand
And you know I know I couldn't understand,
I just couldn't understand
Couldn't understand stand stand,
I couldn't understand
And you know I know I couldn't understand,
My emotions
Drift away
I think about it but it's alright it's alright it's alright it's alright
It's alright now
My emotions
Drift away
I think about it every single day
Do I regret it
Well I'd say thats its alright it's alright it's alright
Out in space
There's a feeling that runs through your veins
One that has no time no space
Taking you high
So that you can't deny it
Thats when you're in love
Taking you high
So that you can't deny it
That's when youre in love
Taking you high
So that you can't deny it
That's when you're in love
That's when you're in love
Taking you high
So that you can't deny it
That's when you're in love
Taking you high
So that you can't deny it
That's when you're in love
Taking you high
So that you can't deny it
That's when you're in love
