I don't wanna be your friend, Shannon
I wanna drag the river, drink myself dry, oh
But I don't wanna be your friend, Shannon
I don't wanna be your friend, Shannon
I wanna make a scene, at the middle east, oh
But I don't wanna be your friend, Shannon
Oh no, what you want me to do?
Don't accuse me of accusing you,
'cause that doesn't work
I'm sorry
but it doesn't work
Oh, Shannon, oh.
I just wanna be your pet, Shannon
I just wanna be your pet
I wanna have your praises, sleep at your feet, oh
but I don't wanna be your pup, Shannon.
I don't wanna be your pup, Shannon
Come on Shannon, let's go wallow and rue
and you convinced me that your feelings are true,
but that doesn't work, oh
but that doesn't work
Oh, Shannon, oh
But I love you still
I love you still
I always will
I just wanna be your man, Shannon
I wanna be your right hand, Shannon
I wanna have your babies, take your last name
But I'm probably gonna just get drunk, Shannon
I'm gonna go get drunk, Shannon
I'm gonna go get drunk
I'm gonna go get drunk, oh
Another day is at end
Mama says she's tired again
No one can even begin to tell her
I hardly know what to say
But maybe it's better that way
Is papa were here?
I'm sure he'd tell her
Shannon is gone
I hope she's drifting out to sea
She always loved to swim away
Maybe she'll find an island
With a shady tree
Just like the one in our backyard
Mama tried hard to pretend
things would get better again
Somehow she's keeping
It all inside her
But finally the tears fill our eyes
And I know that somewhere tonight
She knows how much we really miss her
I once loved a lass and I loved her sae weel,
I hated all others who spoke of her ill,
But now she’s rewarded me well for my love,
For she’s gaun tae be wed tae another.
I saw my love to the church go,
Wi’ bride groom and bride’s maidens, they made a fine
show,
And I followed on wi’ my heart full of woe,
She was goin’ tae be wed tae another.
I saw my love sit doon tae dine,
As I sat doon beside her I poured oot the wine.
I drank tae the lassie that should have been mine,
Even though she’d been wed tae another.
The men o’ the forest they askit o’ me,
How many strawberries grow in the salt sea?
I answered them all wi’ a tear in my e’e
How many ships sail in the forest?
Dig me a grave and dig it sae deep,
And cover me over my head tae my feet,
And I will lie doon and I’ll tak a lang sleep,

We started dancing and love put us into a groove
As soon as we started to move.
The music played while our bodies displayed through the dance,
Then love picked us out for romance.
I thought it was clear the plan was we would share,
This feeling just between ourselves.
But when the music changed, the plan was re-arranged
He went to dance with someone else.
We started dancing and love put us into a groove
But now he's with somebody new - what does love want me to do?
Love said:
Let the music play he won't get away,
Just keep the groove and then he'll come back to you again, let it play.
Let the music play he won't get away,
This groove he can't ignore, he won't leave you anymore, no, no, no.
He tried pretending a dance is just a dance, but I see
He's dancing his way back to me.
Guess he's discovered we are truly lovers,
Magic from the very start, 'cause love just kept me groovin',
And he felt me movin' even though we danced apart.
So we started dancing and love put us into the groove
As soon as we started to move, as soon as we started to move.
Love said:
Let the music play he won't get away,
Just keep the groove and then he'll come back to you again, let it play.
Let the music play he won't get away,
This groove he can't ignore, he won't leave you anymore, no, no, no.
He tried pretending a dance is just a dance, but I see
He's dancing his way back to me,
He's dancing his way back to me.
Love said:
Let the music play he won't get away,
Just keep the groove and then he'll come back to you again, let it play.
Let the music play he won't get away,
This groove he can't ignore, he won't leave you anymore
Let the music play he won't get away,
Just keep the groove and then he'll come back to you again, let it play.
Walking sadly through the park
I hear crying in the darkness
And thought I act like I cannot hear
Their situation is very clear
A girl who's trying to tell her guy
The time has come that they say good-bye
And his answer tears my heart apart:
Give me tonight
Then if you don't wanna stay
Girl I'll just forget you
You'll see I'm right
You won't get to go away
Love ain't gonna let you
Walking with you through the park
Now it's my voice in the darkness
Just like the girl trying to tell her guy
I'm telling you we must say good-bye
I can't believe when I hear once more
The very words that were said before
Come from deep within your broken heart:
(His voice echoes in the dark
His voice echoes in the dark)
Give me tonight
Then if you don't wanna stay
Girl I'll just forget you
You'll see I'm right
You won't get to go away
Love ain't gonna let you
I'll give you one night
Give me tonight
Then if you don't wanna stay
Girl I'll just forget you
You'll see I'm right
You won't get to go away
Love ain't gonna let you
I'll get you one more night
Give me tonight
Give me tonight
Give me tonight...
His voice echoes in the darkness
[4x]
Give me tonight
Then if you don't wanna stay
Girl I'll just forget you
You'll see I'm right
You won't get to go away
My young love said to me, my mother won´t mind
And my father won´t slight you for your lack of kine,
And she stepped away from me and this she did say,
It will not be long love ´til our wedding day.
She stepped away from me and she moved through the fair,
And fondly I watched her move here and move there,
Then she went her way homeward with one star awake,
As the swan in the evening moves over the lake.
The people were saying no two were e´er wed,
But one has a sorrow that never was said,
And I smiled as she passed with her goods and her gear,
And that was the last that I saw of my dear.
I dreamt it last night that my young love came in,
So softly she entered her feet made no din,
She came close beside me and this she did say,

Hey there, I've been watching you
Sittin' there against the wall
Say there, I don't know what you're doing
But you're not having fun at all
I can tell you're feelin' down
'Cause you show no reaction
And everybody's in the groove
(Everybody)
But you're not helping things at all
Sitting there afraid to move
(Afraid to move)
Gotta get up when you're feelin' down and go meet somebody
'Cause all you need to turn things around is a sweet somebody
Gotta get up when you're feelin' down, go meet somebody
'Cause all you need to turn things around is a sweet somebody
(Sweet somebody, gotta get up)
Hey boy, I know how you feel
Sitting there all by yourself
But say, boy, your heart will never heal
Until you find somebody else
Let whoever broke your heart
Fade into the past and give tonight another try
(Give tonight and try)
This could be a brand new start
Don't you let it pass you by
(Pass you by)
Gotta get up when you're feelin' down, go meet somebody
'Cause all you need to turn things around is a sweet somebody
Gotta get up when you're feelin' down, go meet somebody
'Cause all you need to turn things around is a sweet somebody
(Sweet somebody, gotta get up)
Gotta get up when you're feelin' down, go meet somebody
'Cause all you need to turn things around is a sweet somebody
Gotta get up when you're feelin' down, go meet somebody
(Meet somebody)
'Cause all you need to turn things around is a sweet somebody
(Gotta get up)
Sweet somebody
(Gotta get up)
Sweet somebody
Gotta get up when you're feelin' down, go meet somebody
(Meet somebody)
'Cause all you need to turn things around is a sweet somebody
Gotta get up when you're feelin' down, go meet somebody
(Meet somebody)
'Cause all you need to turn things around is a sweet somebody
Fareweel to a' our Scottish fame
Fareweel our ancient glory
Fareweel ev'n to the Scottish name
Sae famed in martial story
Now Sark rins o'er the Solway sands
An' Tweed rins to the ocean
To mark where England's province stands
Such a parcel of rogues in a nation
What force or guile could not subdue
Thro' many warlike ages
Is wrought now by a coward few
For hireling traitor's wages
The English steel we could disdain
Secure in valors station;
But English gold has been our bane-
Such a parcel of rogues in a nation
O, would, or had I seen the day
That Treason thus could sell us
My auld grey head had lien in clay
Wi' Bruce and loyal Wallace
But pith and power, till my last hour
I'll mak this declaration-
"We were bought and sold for English gold"
Walking sadly through the park
I hear crying in the darkness
And thought I act like I cannot hear
Their situation is very clear:
A girl who's trying to tell her guy
The time has come that they say: "Good-bye"
And his answer tears my heart apart:
Give me tonight
then if you don't wanna stay
Girl
I'll just forget you.
You'll see I'm right
you won't get to go away
Love ain't gonna let you.
Walking with you through the park
Now it's my voice in the darkness.
Just like the girl trying to tell her guy
I'm telling you
we must say "good-bye".
I can't believe when I hear once more
The very words that were said before -
Come from deep within your broken heart:
Give me tonight
then if you don't wanna stay
. . .
I'll give you one night.
Give me tonight
then if you don't wanna stay
. . .
I'll get you one more night.
Give me tonight
give me tonight
give me tonight
Give me tonight
give me tonight
give me tonight
. . .
His voice echoes in the darkness.
Give me tonight
then if you don't wanna stay
. . .
Yes
I'll give you one more night.
Give me tonight
then if you don't wanna stay
I'm only human, of flesh and blood I'm made.
Ooh human, born to make mistakes.
If fiveboys in the house say it loud.
If five boys in the house check it out.
Come on baby dry your eyes, wipe your tears.
Never like to see you cry, please forgive me.
I wouldn't ever try to hurt you, I just needed
Someone to hold me, to fill the void while you were gone.
To fill this space of emptiness.
I'm only human, of flesh and blood I'm made.
Ooh human, born to make mistakes.
If five boys in the house say it loud
If five boys in the house check it out.
When I lay upon my bed I reminisce then I wish
That I got you by my side with the cherry red kiss
Hit me off make it soft hold me tight throughout the night
You know I'm gonna fight cos the thing we had was right
But if you go all I know I can't go a day without you
Here in my arms hypnotised with your charms now
I'm feeling for you baby ain't you hearing the alarms
You can't stop all that love that I got
Wanna rewind time to better days that were hot check it
Bring back the better days for me baby
You gotta bring 'em back cos I'm going crazy
I go insane with your name up in my brain
Things will never be the same you ain't up in my frame
So what you gonna do what you gonna say
Tell me that you're gonna push your loving back my way.
I'm only human, of flesh and blood I'm made.
Ooh human, born to make mistakes.
If fiveboys in the house say it loud.
Where can I run to find an escape
I've had a very busy day
I need some fun, some private space
I want to get away
To someplace where
There isn't a care or a worry
But it must be some place near
'Cause I wanna go in a hurry
Do you wanna get away, do wanna escape
I can help you, I'm your lover, oh
Do you wanna get away, my love can take you some place
Where you'll never be discovered (Do you)
I wanna get away, yeah
I wanna get away, yeah
No time plan an exotic trip
To an island in the sun
'Cause where can I go and be back again
By the time tomorrow comes
Somewhere to find
A quick holiday is the question
Baby, would you mind
Repeating your lovely suggestion
Do you wanna get away, do wanna escape
I can help you, I'm your lover, oh
Do you wanna get away, my love can take you some place
Where you'll never be discovered (Do you)
Do you wanna get away, do wanna escape
I'll help you leave it all behind you
I know a place in paradise
Where even time ain't gonna find you (Say yeah, say yeah)
Do you wanna get away
(Yes, I wanna)
Do you wanna
(Yes, I wanna get away, yeah)
I do want to
You do want to get away
I will take you
You will take me too
Do you wanna get away, do wanna escape
I can help you, I'm your lover, oh
Do you wanna get away, my love can take you some place
Where you'll never be discovered (Do you)
Do you wanna get away, do wanna escape
I'll help you leave it all behind you (I really wanna get way)
I know a place in paradise
Where even time ain't gonna find you (Say yeah, say yeah)
Do you wanna get away, do wanna escape
I can help you, I'm your lover, oh
Do you wanna get away, my love can take you some place
Ye Jacobites by name lend an ear, lend an ear
Ye Jacobites by name lend an ear
Ye Jacobites by name your faults I will proclaim
Your doctrines I must blame, you shall hear.
What is right and what is wrong by the law, by the law
What is right and what is wrong by the law
What is right and what is wrong, a short sword and a long
A weak arm and a strong for to draw.
What makes heroic strife famed afar, famed afar?
What makes heroic strife famed afar?
What makes heroic strife, to whet the assassin's knife
Or hunt a parent's life with bloody war.
Then leave your schemes alone in the state, in the state
Then leave your schemes alone in the state
Then leave your schemes alone, adore the rising sun
And leave a man alone to his fate, aleave a man alone to
his fate.
Ye Jacobites by name lend an ear, lend an ear
Ye Jacobites by name lend an ear
Ye Jacobites by name your faults I will proclaim
Your doctrines I must blame, you shall hear.
Then leave your schemes alone, adore the rising sun
And leave a man alone to his fate...
Get up get up get up get up
Lift your head
C'mon C'mon
Get up out of bed
Today's the day you hold the world with
your song
Go now go now go now
Help ascalate
Angels come down, help with this parade
To hear your voice ring out
C'mon and shout out and let you song be
heard
Chorus:
This is the time
This is the day that we've been waiting
All the world will stop to watch you shine
Hey now hey now hey now hey now
Sing your hymn
This is the new national anthem
We will all stand on guard to let you be

Let go let go let go
All the cannons
How beautiful this world has become
Now everyone will see what i believe that
these words should be sung
Chorus:
This is the time
This is the day that we've been waiting
All the world will stop to watch you shine
This is the time
This is the day that we've been waiting
All the world will stop to watch you shine
And if you fall
And if you fall
And if you trust then yes it will come true
Hey hey yeah
Chorus:
This is the time
This is the day that we've been waiting
All the world will stop to watch you shine
This is the time
This is the day that we've been waiting

VERSE 1
Shannon was the preacher's only daughter
Living in a small town on the edge of nowhere
Went to high school with her girlfriends
She was different but she always tried to fit in
A Sunday sermon in a church filled with solemn faces
Late at night daddy liked to touch her secret places
Momma closed her eyes denying everything she'd seen
Shannon ran away from home when she was sixteen
CHORUS:
Shannon, where are you now?
You've got to find your way through somehow
Close your eyes, 'cause it won't be long
When a new day will dawn
VERSE 2
A lonely girl collecting pieces of her broken life
She meets Jimmy and he asks her if she'll be his wife
Shannon knows their relationship can never last
But she is desperately trying to forget her past
Soon she's left alone to raise her growing children
Jim gets drunk each night then staggers home and beats them
Shannon fears that their gonna have to run away
She thinks he'll kill her if she stays with him another day
REPEAT CHORUS
GUITAR SOLO
Another day is at end
Mama says she's tired again
No one can even begin to tell her
I hardly know what to say
But maybe it's better that way
Is papa were here?
I'm sure he'd tell her
Shannon is gone
I hope she's drifting out to sea
She always loved to swim away
Maybe she'll find an island
With a shady tree
Just like the one in our backyard
Mama tried hard to pretend
things would get better again
Somehow she's keeping
It all inside her
But finally the tears fill our eyes
And I know that somewhere tonight
