Somehow you know
When she comes near
She's the one
You're waiting to see
Waiting to see, waiting to see.
Somehow you know
When she comes close
She's the one
You wanted the most
Wanted the most, wanted the most.
Somehow you know
When it's too late
She was the one
But it's too late
Somehow you know, somehow you -
La da da da, la da da da
La da da da, la da da da
La da da da, de da da da
INSTRUMENTAL
Somehow you know
When it's too late
She was the one
But it's too late
Somehow you know, somehow you -
Somehow you know
When she comes near
She was the one
You're waiting to hear
Waiting to hear, waiting to hear.
Somehow you know
Somehow you know
You are what you are
It was, what it was
The world didn't end
The world never does
I wake up alive
From habit I guess
Yes, I can survive, one love more or less
And sometime, somewhere, somehow
I laugh all my laughter
I've cried my tears now
I want my years now
My years
I've nowhere to go
That I have to be
There's no one I know
Who's waiting for me
There's so much inside
I still have to give
So much to be tried
A life time to live
And sometime, somewhere, somehow
I'll have my tomorrow
Today won't stop me
No way to stop me
Not now
The world still holds me
I want what's due now
If not with you now
Then someone, sometime, somehow
Intro Wah recoil!
Testing,testing,1 2 3 4 5
Seal ah sever
Love anointing
Ten commandment
Whoa yah!
Sizzla Kalonji with de bigger judgement uh-nuh!
Wide worldwide!
Ah-hah!
Chorus 'Cause somehow Jah-Jah jus' keep on blessing this place
Somehow Ras Tafari jus' keep on showing us his love and his grace
Somehow Jah-Jah jus' keep on blessing this place
Somehow Ras Tafari jus' keep on showing us his face
Verse 1 When I'm cruising through,moving through
I consider the little children need new clothes and shoes
I consider the little children need education and food
'Cause I've got the strength,and l've got the vibes
I've got my children and my beautiful wife
Life is for love,life is for living
The blessing from above is so much,l keep giving
Over the top of a lager in wineless wine bar
I can see the sunset over Blackbird hill
It's only the cocaine comaradarie
Keeping the thugs from moving in for the kill
Friends desert me through choice and pressure
I know the faces but I'm not safe
A kiss torn curl blows through your hair
Words glow and fade as the meanings change
But somehow - it don't bother me
somehow - it don't bother me
There's a choice to make but I'll make it later
Decisions just float on by
Oblivious to the sounds around me
I'm home but I don't know why
The last of the sunset bounces of the back wall
And reflects back off to the stars
A final witness to a dying sunset
The fire in his belly is taking over
He never watches the telly dressed or sober
He really likes a tiff, give him a lift
And he won't round now
He gets me to the point its nearly over
But somehow
Somehow I'd like to get to know him
Somebody told me that I shouldn't claim him
Somebody told me that I should let him go
Baby somehow
I really hate to say this
I can't wait 'til he gets older
Then I can assure you we'll be fine
I won't bow out
I know nobody's perfect
With love you gotta earn it
But until then I guess we'll have to scream and shout
Somehow, I'd like to get to know him
Somebody told me that I shouldn't claim him
Somebody said I should let him go
But they really don't know
That sometimes I really wanna kill him
I'd die if I wasn't with him
Somebody said I should let him go, oh
Looking out on Casanova
Well we got people coming over
I couldn't care less about the mess
Just pipe it down
By now you should know it
that I'm a girl who don't give a dis
there comes a point even for me
Cause you believe me somehow
You're second to none
And you got my love
You got me under the gun
Cause you will see me somehow
Ill stay with ya, stay with ya, stay with ya tell the end
Cause you believe me somehow
You're second to none
And you got my love
You got me under the gun
Cause you will see me somehow
Ill stay with ya, stay with ya, stay with ya tell the end
You got your coat on
Got me focused on
Dont move and slow motion
Every time I see its just enough
Cause you and me were ment to be together in love
And I said all my life
See I been spending all this time
Everytime I see, its just enough
Cause you and I were ment to be together in love
You got your coat on
Got me focused on
Dont move and slow motion
Every time I see its just enough
Cause you and I were ment to be together in love
And I said all my life
See I been spending all this time
Everytime I see, its just enough
She stares at the moon
Her ribbons out of tune
Memories of the past
At the bottom of her glass
And resting on her cheek
The imprint of his ring
A symbol of the weak
Commissioned by the king
Did he tie you down?
Did you make a sound?
She falls to her knees
Screaming God please
Make something of me
Cause I never wanted anything like what I wanna be right now
An angel again
An angel again somehow
She remembers his old boots
And the shotgun that he shoots
And all she could take
Lies at the bottom of a lake
So lift your cig and drag
As you figure out a plan
To hide it all away
How could she ever love this man
Did you weigh him down?
Did he make a sound?
And when you carry weight in your life (life)
And all the plans you make in your life (life)
The original decision was right
Did he tie you down?
Did you make a sound?
Did he weigh you down?
Somehow
Somewhere
and I call call you my heavenly pearl
oh could you make me overstand dis ya difficult wold
with all things running up and down and faster than
fast
with all the lights sparkling in bars and wars
one million letters making history in every day
I read the news see the writings on the wall on my way
while one a differ between tiny little bigger and mad
the other differ between yellow, red, brown, snowwhite
and black
and who feels Lord he knows it
and what he sees is dreader than dread
red tears stealing your hope man
but you can?t forget
what has been done yeah
to your brother
what has been done yeah
to your own
CHORUS
somehow the sunlight will come down to your home
somewhere you find a place where you ain?t alone
somehow wisdom will come and overflow
all your rainy days your teardrops and your mean heavy
load
and hey pearl could you tell me where I am I feel lost
in dis ya labyrinth I don?t know where to walk who to
trust
satan is living in dem corrupted minds
and evil seed dem a go plant after dem brainwashed your
mind
downtown every corner is a dangerous zone
barking people with high fever
out of control
piff pfaff but the murderer is gone like his shot
nobody knows why dis ya innocent girl has been his spot
and I hear the woman crying
her innocent girl has been his spot
and I hear the woman imploring
to give her back
and I feel the woman dying
she lost everthing that she got
if you are desperated and falling
sing along
CHORUS
somehow the sunlight will come down to your home
somewhere you find a place where you ain?t alone
somehow wisdom will come and overflow
all your rainy days your teardrops and your mean heavy
load
friend if your life is full of darkness and you can?t
see no light
you got to be strong start a rebelion and love will let
you thrive
all of your seeds see them growing and know you know my
frined
if you?re fighting you?ll win one day
one day someway
CHORUS
somehow the sunlight will come down to your home
somewhere you find a place where you ain?t alone
somehow wisdom will come and overflow
all your rainy days your teardrops and your mean heavy
Chorus:
Won't He make a way somehow
Won't He make a way somehow
Keep looking up unto the hills
From whence cometh
All of your help
My help cometh from the Lord
Bridge:
He'll make a way somehow
I know He can do it
Make a way somehow
I know He can
Ending:
The pain will not subside but i will do what it takes
I'm all alone inside but i wont give up and break
If ever i had reason it means nothing now
Kill all the pain inside 'cause i will win somehow
I will win i will win somehow
I will win i will win somehow
All these thoughts are kept inside when in fear i run and hide
Now these thoughts i must confide it's time to put my fear aside
All these thoughts are kept inside when in fear i run and hide
Now these thoughts i must confide it's time to put my fear aside
I cannot give up hope for it is all i got
I have no self esteem my soul is tied in knots
If ever i had reason it means nothing now
Kill all the pain inside me 'cause i will win somehow
I will win i will win somehow
I will win i will win somehow
All these thoughts are kept inside when in fear i run and hide
Now these thoughts i must confide it's time to put my fear aside
All these thoughts are kept inside when in fear i run and hide
Now these thoughts i must confide it's time to put my fear aside
I was born into this mess just to put me to the test
With this curse i've been blessed i will rise above the rest
I was born into this mess just to put me to the test
With this curse i've been blessed i will rise above the rest
I was born into this mess just to put me to the test
With this curse i've been blessed i will rise above the rest
I was born into this mess just to put me to the test
With this curse i've been blessed i will rise above the rest
All these thoughts are kept inside when in fear i run and hide
Now these thoughts i must confide it's time to put my fear aside
All these thoughts are kept inside when in fear i run and hide
Now these thoughts i must confide it's time to put my fear aside
Its time to put my fear aside
By Dave Fenton
I've seen it before
I know the score
You're trying to be wild and carefree
You really can't take it no more
I'm trying to think
I can't think clear
Everybody's talking to me
It's gone foggy in here
But as time goes marching home again
It leaves me to reflect
Or was this just a waste of time
Or was this time well spent
And if it marches back again
And orders me to smile
Then will I be prepared
Or will it take a little while
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me now
I'll make it up to you somehow
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me now
I'll make it up to you somehow
I've listened to you
Please listen to me
Don't tie us up completely
Just wait and see
I'll try very hard for a second chance
Which is it to be? One dead romance
Or a handful of dreams? Please tell me
It makes all the difference to me
And I really want to know
I've done so many things I suddenly regret
IfI could only compromise and you'd try to forget
A single kiss, a lovers wish, the past dissolves in tears
The present burns inside of me, the future disappears
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me now
I'll make it up to you somehow
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me now
I'll make it up to you somehow
Oh Yes I will and I'll go
Out of my way to make you happy
Till the sun don't shine and sky stops turning blue
I really want to know
Could I ever be happy
Without somebody who really cared
Somebody like you
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me now
I'll make it up to you somehow
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me now
I'll make it up to you somehow
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me now
I'll make it up to you somehow
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me now
I'll make it up to you somehow
What can I do?
I can't stop thinkin' about you
Oh, what can I do?
I can't stop thinkin' about you
I know it's time to go now
But, but I'm sure we'll meet again somehow
One of these days
I'm sure we'll meet again
I didn't want
To see this come to an end
If I was only still a child
It might be easier to let go somehow
When I needed you
You didn't lend me your ears
But you left me too soon
Oh and it's got me in tears
I gotta say goodbye from now
From across the miles / i want you to know / you still have my heart / i send all my love wrapped up in this song / i wish we were'nt apart / i'll try to make you proud and not let you down / but never forget i'll be back around / Chorus / someway, somewhere, somehow / i think of you even now / and though you're not here / im making it clear, ill be with you / someway, somewhere, someday, somehow / 2. / every night when i sing / no matter what town im in / its a d ream come true / and before i go on / i take a look at whos there / hoping i would see you / from behind the curtain i look in the crowd / i won't be complete cause you're not around / Chorus / i want to thank you for letting me live on the road / and being patient with times when im gone / just remember that youre the one i give my love / and let that thought help you carry on / Chorus

Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me now
I'll make it up to you somehow
Yes I will
Grey visions of today
Every sight the same
I can not break free
I think I'm gone
As though I never wake
Always drawn into descent
And my hope decays, just out of reach
Cursed through life & condemned to misery
To be left with nothing...
If only for a moment; a way out
To see the faintest glimmer amongst the dark
To mend the broken dawn so bleak
Somehow I think I'm gone
But like ashes to the wind i will fade
Nameless and Forgotten
The thorn upon the withered rose
