When I beat my head against the wall of convention
the blood I taste is everyone's
I fought a battle thought unpopular
for stakes nobody seems to see
nobody sees but me
one step forward
two steps back
come on and try me
my pain is the pain of children
my heart is burning with their shame
when mother cries all day
I'll wipe those tears away
you can't grow up healthy in a house of
for every father holding back the angry fire until five
when it festers on the drive
his boss has shamed him to tears
Little baby boy, sittin' 'round his toys
Gettin' tired of crawlin'
He's pullin' up on an easy chair
He's gonna try a little walkin'
He's takin' steps
A six year old with a new school bag
Starin' down his drive
Holdin' on to his mama's hand
He's going on his first bus ride
He's takin' steps
A teenage boy in a rented tux
Reaching out a trembling hand
To a pretty young girl in a satin dress
Asking her to dance
Steps, some big, some small
Puttin' one foot after the other
Steps, the trick to it all
Is diggin' down to find a little courage
And it's okay to be afraid
You gotta have faith, 'cause life's all about steps
22 years she stood by a man
Who did her wrong
With a packed suitcase and a Greyhound ticket
She's finally gone
Takin' steps
At a meeting downtown, a tired old drunk
Stands and says his name
That leaves him eleven to go
He can already feel the change
Takin' steps
Somewhere a great Grandpa says
"I'm ready to go"
Peacefully drifts off to sleep
Wakes up on streets of gold
Steps, some big, some small
Puttin' one foot after the other
Steps, the trick to it all
Is diggin' down to find a little courage
It's okay to be afraid
Gotta have faith, 'cause life's all about
Steps, some big, some small
Puttin' one foot after the other
Steps, the trick to it all
Is diggin' down to find a little courage
And it's okay to be afraid
I lie awake in the dark of the night
lost without you
why didn't I try to put up a fight
for your love
my very soul was dyin'
why wasn't I cryin'
( CHORUS )
turn around, turn around
turn around don't walk away
turn around, turn around
don't you leave me torn apart this way
your love means everything to me
turn around baby
turn around, turn around
I thank the heavens for sendung you down
here to love me
my lonely world would stop turning around
with you gone
please don't go
why did I leave unspoken
the words that left me broken
( CHORUS )
turn around, turn around
turn around don't walk away
turn around, turn around
don't you leave me torn apart this way
your love means everything to me
turn around baby
now the nights don't end
and the rain sets in
and I can't pretend
I'll be alright again
baby, no one in my arms
will ever feel the way you do
and you might be here for me to hold you
if I'd only told you....
I'm gonna find you
and this time you wont get away
'cause baby i know exactly
what I'm gonna say
( CHORUS )
turn around, turn around
turn around don't walk away
turn around, turn around
don't you leave me torn apart this way
your love means everything to me
turn around baby
My love after all we've said and done
Are you tellin' me that the time has come?
To go our separate ways
And now after all that we've been thru
If you won't let me make it up to you
The truth I'll have you face
You won't be here tomorrow
But I'll get thru the sorrow baby
(Now that you're gone)
I'll keep the fires burning tho' my hearts breakin'
(I'll carry on)
Cos every day I'm learning life's for the taking
No matter what, I know that in the end
At least I can be certain
This heart will love again
I know we can't go on living yesterdays
Wish there was something more that I could say
To make my heart forget
But now, if you really have to go
Then I must somehow find the strength to show
No sadness to regret
You won't be here tomorrow
But I'll se thru the sorry baby
You won't be here tomorrow
But I'll get thru the sorrow baby
(Now that you're gone)
I'll keep the fires burning tho' my hearts breakin'
(I'll carry on)
Cos every day I'm learning life's for the taking
No matter what, I know that in the end
At least I can be certain
This heart will love again
I won't be here tomorrow
I will get thru the sorrow baby I will love again
Chorus Out
Are you hanging up your stocking on the wall?
Is it time that every Santa has a ball?
Does he ride a red nosed reindeer?
Does he tug upon a sleigh?
Do the fairies keep him sober for a day?
So here it is, Merry Christmas
Everybody's having fun
Look to the future now
It's only just begun
Are you waiting for the family to arrive?
Are you sure you got the room to spare inside?
Does your granny always tell ya
That the old songs are the best?
And she's up and rock n rolling with the rest
So here it is, Merry Christmas
Everybody's having fun
Look to the future now it's only just begun
What will your daddy do
When he sees your mamma kissing Santa Claus?
Ahhh ahhh
Ahhh ahhh
Are you hinging up your socking on your wall?
Are you hoping that the snow will start to fall?
Do you rattle down the hillside
In the buggy you have made?
When you land upon your head then you will say
So here it is, Merry Christmas
Everybody's having fun
Look to the future now
It's only just begun
So here it is, Merry Christmas
Everybody's having fun
Look to the future now
It's only just begun
It's only just begun
Everybody's having fun
Love's got a hold of my heart
I'm calling out
Won't somebody out there hear my s.o.s.
Throw me a lifeline please
An' save me
There's no doubt
Baby you took me prisoner I confess
When you crossed my defenses
And captured my heart
Now it's too late to put up a fight
I thought I was strong but as hard as I try
Can't break away
Darlin' there's no way out
Nothing can help me now
Love's got a hold of my heart
Love's got a hold of my heart
There's no escape
Now I'm like a damsel in distress
Trapped in a fairytale forever
An' no mistake
It's tragic but I'll have to face the truth I guess
Live evermore resigned to my fate
Now it's too late to put up a fight
I thought I was strong but as hard as I try
Can't break away
Darlin' there's no way out
Nothing can help me now
Love's got a hold of my heart
Yeah, love's
Love's got a hold of my heart
Hold on my heart
Hold on my heart
Love's got a hold on my
It's got a hold on my heart
Heart
Oh woah
Yeah, woah, oh
Now it's too late to put up a fight
I thought I was strong but as hard as I try
Can't break away
Darlin' there's no way out
Nothing can help me now
Love's got a hold of my heart
Can't break away
Darlin' there's no way out
Nothing can help me now
Love's got a hold of my heart
Ooo, love's got a hold of my heart
You can make the sun turn purple - You can make the sea turn turtle
But you know you can never make me - Love u more
You can turn wine into water - Turn sadness into laughter
But you know you can never make me - Love u more
Let the sky fall down - Let the leaves turn brown
Still you know you can never make me - Love u more
Let the redwoods die - Let the wells run dry
Still you know you can never make me - Love u more
You can make dew into diamonds - Or pacify the lions
But you know you can never make me - Love u more
You can make me dance to order - My self hung torn and quartered
But you know you can never make me - Love u more
Let the new day hide - Leave the scars inside
Still you know you can never make me - Love u more
Let the rain pour down - Let the valleys drown
Still you know you can never make me
Hey you know you can never make me - Love u more
We can make the sun turn purple - We can make the sea turn turtle
But you know you can never make me - Love u more
We can turn wine into water - Turn sadness into laughter
But you know you can never make me - Love u more
Let the sky fall down - Let the leaves turn brown
Still you know you can never make me - Love u more
Let the redwoods die - As the wells run dry
I know I hurt you baby and I'm sorry
But I'm back now so don't you worry
Darling what can I say I couldn't keep myself away
I think it's time we got back together
'cos we'd only be lonely forever
Darling we've gotta try ain't no good in goodbye
Oh oh oh time will answer all our questions
All I need is your affection
Wherever I go
Whatever I do
Everything reminds me of you
Wherever I go
Whatever I do
Love keeps bringing me back to you
The things we said - well I guess we didn't mean them
Now I've had time I understand your reasons
Darling you won't regret believe me I won't forget
'cos this time our love will be much sweeter
And I promise to look a little deeper
Darling whats done is done our best is yet to come
Oh oh oh time will answer all our questions
All I need is your affection
Wherever I go
Whatever I do
Everything reminds me of you
Wherever I go
Whatever I do
It's time to begin - now count it in...

[Chorus]: My boot scootin' baby is drivin' me crazy
My obsession from a western - my dance floor date
My rodeo romeo, a cowboy god from head to toe
Wanna make you mine, betta get in line
[Chorus]
Foot kickin' - finger clickin', leather slapping - hand clappin' -
hip bumpin' - music thumpin' - knee hitchin' - heel and toe -
floor scuffin' - leg shufflin' - big grinnin' - body spinnin' -
rompin' stompin' - pumpin' jumpin' - slidin' glidin' - here we go

burnin' yearnin' - winding grinding - let's begin the dance again
[Chorus]
You're mine....you're mine bubba
Gonna rope you in - so count me in
[Chorus]
We stood before our friends and pledged eternal love
To have and to hold
We both meant every word and spoke of one above
Love could not grow cold
Then I found myself so many nights
With time my only friend
And I only saw it in your eyes
Too late to make amends
darling
Time can be a healer or time can divide
I never meant for anyone to you from my side
But I'm just a man (just a man)
And it comes down to this
I was just to weak to resist
If only I had known I'd caused you so much pain
I would not have strayed
And tho' I promise you I'll never fall again baby
I must lie in this bed I've made
And tho' I'm hurtin' you I swear it was
The last thing on my mind
And I found myself on my own
One too many times
darling
Time can be a healer or time can divide
I never meant for anyone to take you from my side
But I'm just a man (just a man)
And it comes down to this
Tonight she'll be waiting in the place,
If she can get away,
For a secret rendezvous,
We've gotta keep our heads down low,
There's places we can't go,
Though we both know the harm that it would do,
If he knew, the thought of us,
It would break his heart until forever,
And without her,
He would fall apart,
I wish I never fell,
For my best friends girl.
I know it's wrong and he's a friend,
Someday it's got to end,
Our love is no excuse,
We've got to hide the way we feel,
And the moments that we steal,
Time could not heal,
The harm that it would do,
If he knew about us,
If he knew, the thought of us,
It would break his heart until forever,
And without her,
He would fall apart,
I wish I never fell,
For my best friends girl.
It's got to end,
This ain't no way to treat a friend,
Every time we try breaking it up,
Well it always starts again,
I can't let her go,
It's wrong and we both know,
It's out of our control,
If he knew, the thought of us,
It would break his heart until forever,
And without her,
He would fall apart,
I wish I never fell,
You know I miss you
When you're gone
And I can't pretend
That I know when
Our love started to go wrong
I know we planned to stay together
We just ran in to stormy weather
We couldn't see the dark clouds in the sky
(Couldn't see the dark clouds in the sky)
But I had no way of knowing
And I don't know where I'm going
But I'm movin' on
We talked it over
We've said it all
Well who could say
It would be this way
But the writing's on the wall
And now the sun is finally setting
This is where the story ends
We didn't count upon a rainy day
(Didn't count upon a rainy day)
But I had no way of knowing
And I don't know where I'm going
But I'm movin' on
I'm movin' on
I'm movin' on
I know we planned to stay together
We just ran into stormy weather
We couldn't see the dark clouds in the sky
(Couldn't see the dark clouds in the sky)
But I had no way of knowing
And I don't know where I'm going
Don't keep me dreaming
If all the hope is gone
If it's all over
Don't keep me hanging on
I can't stay
And dream my life away
In some kind of wonderland
Better to hurt me honestly
Than make a fool of me
My heart will understand
Make it easy on me
Just walk away, set me free
Don't try to do it gently
Just to please me
Make it easy, easy on me
If it's the time to go
If it's the last goodbye
Never turn around
Don't want you to see me cry
Don't make me stay
And wish my time away
In some fool's paradise
Don't give any hope to me
Spin any lines for me
Make the truth plain to see
Make it easy on me
Just walk away, set me free
Don't try to do it gently
Just to please me
Make it easy, easy on me
Better to hurt me honestly
Than make a fool of me
There's a bridge
I don't know how to cross yet
I need your hand to hold along the way
In your eyes
I see that you have faith in me
I don't wanna disappoint you by the choices I may make
If you believe
Believe in me
Ill turn this tide
This stream into a sea
Cos I believe
Believe in dreams
I know that somewhere there's a key
And time will wait for me
As I grow
I need your thoughts to guide me
I feel your love inside
Like vertigo
In your arms
You see the child within me
Embrace me then release me
When I'm ready to let go
If you believe
Believe in me
Ill turn this tide
This stream into a sea
Cos I believe
Believe in dreams
I know that somewhere there's a key
And time will wait for me
When I'm feeling lost
I just think of you
I just close my eyes
And dream blue
If you believe
Believe in me
Ill turn this tide
This stream into a sea
Cos I believe
Believe in dreams
I know that somewhere there's a key
And time will wait for me
Just believe in me
It's the things that you do,
So physical,
It's the things that you say,
So flammable,
You know I can't resist,
Boy it's such a shame,
Do you belong to another,
I don't wanna hurt nobody,
But my heart just can't hold back,
It's the Way You Make Me Feel,
The way that you make me feel,
Spinning my world around,
Tell me how can I walk away,
I don't care what they say,
I'm loving you anyway,
It's the way you make me feel
I'm going to make you mine,
It's not impossible,
Got to let you know,
I'm irresistible,
Baby can't you see,
You're the one for me,
But you belong to another,
I don't wanna hurt nobody,
But my heart just can't hold back,
It's the Way You Make Me Feel,
The way that you make me feel,
Spinning my world around,
Tell me how can I walk away,
I don't care what they say,
I'm loving you anyway,
It's the way you make me feel
When I look into your eyes,
Everytime you smile at me,
Oh I go weak inside,
Baby I just can't hide my love,
It's the Way You Make Me Feel,
The way that you make me feel,
Spinning my world around,
Tell me how can I walk away,
I don't care what they say,
I'm loving you anyway,
(She was older)
Older by years she was
All I'd been dreaming of
(Sure) sure and so confident
She must have been
Heaven-sent
She looked at me smiling
Breathing and sighing
And I felt like crying
She Said
Boy, can't you stay with me
Through the night?
You know I loved
That woman out of sight
Everybody needs someone
To show them how
Even though her touch
Is just a memory now?
I won't forget that moment
I lost my innocence
The day I became
Experienced
(Heaven don't)
Heaven don't make mistakes
A lesson is all it takes
From the beginning
She did the teaching
And I was so willing
Sharing the feelings
Of love that way
I'm never gonna forget that day
Everybody needs someone
To show them how
Even though her touch
Is just a memory now?
I'll never forget that moment
I lost my innocence
The day I became
Experienced
I won't forget that moment (no I won't)
I lost my innocence
The day I became
Experienced
Everybody needs someone
To show them how
Even though her touch
Is just a memory now?
I won't forget that moment
I lost my innocence
The day I became
I was so pre-occupied
Couldn't see what was right before my eyes
A love that's meant to last
In dissaray my life was back to front
I turned it round and decided what I want
Is for a love to last
Last , seems that I always put you last
But now I realise at last
There's gonna be a change
(A Time to change)
My commitment is to you and me
Now I know what my poor heart really needs
A love that's meant to last
My emotions have been carressed
So let me put in one sincere request
For a love to last
Last, seems that I always put you last
But now I realise at last
There's gonna be a change
I was so pre-occupied
Couldn't see what was right before my eyes
A love that's meant to last
All I want
Is for a love to last
(Unsurpassed - A love to last)
(Norman Whitfield / Janie Bradford / Barret Strong)
Oh listen to me people
I ain't got time to think about money
Or what it could buy
And I ain't got time to sit down and wonder
What makes a birdie fly
And I don't have the time to think about
What makes the flower grow
And I've never given a second thought to where the rivers flow
Too busy thinking about my baby yeah
And I ain't got time for nothing else
I ain't got time to discuss the weather
And how long it's gonna last
I ain't got time to do no studies
Once I get out of class
Telling you I'm just a girl, Saying I got a one track mind
When it comes to thinking about anything but my baby
I just don't have the time
Too busy thinking about my baby yeah
And I ain't got time for nothing else
Too busy thinking about my baby yeah
And I ain't got time for nothing else
All the diamonds and pearls in the world
Could never match your worth, no, no
He's some kind of wonderful
People I tell ya
I got a heaven right here on earth
I'm just a guy
With a one, one track mind
When it comes to thinking about anything but my baby
I just don't got the time
Too busy thinking about my baby yeah
And I ain't got time for nothing else
Too busy thinking about my baby yeah
And I ain't got time for nothing else
Too busy thinking about my baby
Ain't got time for nothing else, no, no, no
Too busy thinking about my baby
Ain't got time for nothing else, no, no, no
Boy, should've have known it from the start,
You'd go and break my heart,
But I was hoping, praying,
You, you always thought you were right,
But you couldn't see the light,
The truth was shining,
For all the world to see,
You made a fool of me (out of me)
Why did you have to leave
It started again,
That feeling inside me is burning,
When you're not around me I'm hurting,
And I'll never ever,
Start it again,
This time I'm learning my lesson,
Just when I thought I'd found heaven,
Now I know I'll never get over you
I guess I knew it all long,
Hoping that I was wrong,
I should've been strong, moved on,
Into a world, a world without you,
You split my heart in two,
You will be sorry,
You've blown it all away,
You made a fool of me (out of me)
Why did you have to leave
It started again,
That feeling inside me is burning,
When you're not around me I'm hurting,
And I'll never ever,
Start it again,
This time I'm learning my lesson,
Just when I thought I'd found heaven,
Now I know I'll never get over you
You took my soul (you took my soul)
You left me cold (ever so cold)
But now I know someday I will get over you
It started again,
That feeling inside me is burning,
When you're not around me I'm hurting,
And I'll never ever,
Start it again,
This time I'm learning my lesson,
Just when I thought I'd found heaven,
I see the way you act, like you're nonchalant,
But there's no way to hide,
What's in your eyes what's going on,
I'm not imagining the message coming through,
So I'll just say the way I feel,
I know you feel it too,
Think I know the reason that you're holding back,
Don't want me to see you over react,
I'm the kind who has to have it rehearsed,
I'm making my move, I'll go first,
I get b-b-buzzz off you,
Just bec-c-cause I do,
I'm saying it just the way it is,
'Cause it's everywhere in this room,
I get a b-b-buzzz all night,
And you're making me crazy inside,
The secrets out and there ain't no doubt,
I wanna give this b-b-buzzz right back to you
I guess I could pretend as if I didn't care,
It's just a game tp play,
To walk away and leave you there,
I want you next to me, so I'll just speak the truth,
It's not so hard to say,
Come on admit it you want it too,
Think I know the reason that you're holding back,
Don't want me to see you over react,
I'm the kind who has to have it rehearsed,
I'm making my move, I'll go first,
I get b-b-buzzz off you,
Just bec-c-cause I do,
I'm saying it just the way it is,
'Cause it's everywhere in this room,
I get a b-b-buzzz all night,
And you're making me crazy inside,
The secrets out and there ain't no doubt,
I wanna give this b-b-buzzz right back to you
You know it's true, I get electric when I feel everything yo d-d-do,
I know you know it's what I want, what I need from y-y-you,
I'd only be a liar if I said I didn't get a rush,
Gimme a shot, I know you're hot, I know I got b-b-buzzz,
I get b-b-buzzz off you,
Just bec-c-cause I do,
I'm saying it just the way it is,
'Cause it's everywhere in this room,
I get a b-b-buzzz all night,
And you're making me crazy inside,
The secrets out and there ain't no doubt,
I wanna give this b-b-buzzz right back to you
Here we are, we're perfect strangers
After all this time there's no more you and I
But don't look for blame
We've come so far to different places
And now to try to live a lie would be a crime
It's better this way
And we may not have tommorow
But there's always yesterday
After the love has gone
Only fools carry on
We've been hurting for so long
And we both know that it's wrong
After the love has gone
Then we just don't belong
We both know that it's wrong
After the love has gone
It's clear this far nothing to say now
We sang alone and tried so hard to play the game
It all ends the same
Just words no more fill these spaces
When love is gone it's only wrong to try again
I know it's a shame
That we may not have tommorow
But there's always yesterday
After the love has gone
Only fools carry on
We've been hurting for so long
And we both know that it's wrong
After the love has gone
Then we just don't belong
We both know that it's wrong
After the love has gone
Here we are, we're perfect strangers
Now to try to live a lie would be a crime
It's better this way
And we may not have tommorow
But there's always yesterday
After the love has gone
Only fools carry on
We've been hurting for so long
And we both know that it's wrong
After the love has gone
Then we just don't belong
We both know that it's wrong
After the love has gone..
It's time to begin, so count it in.

I used to think that I had left you far behind,
But time has never quite ereased you from my mind,
Coz my heart keeps telling me your gone,
Cant re-write history, move on;
Just as i know what i should do
Like a boat from the blue
It wants you
Chorus
And im back to where i started broken hearted
Never thought i could feel this way
Just like we never parted look what youve started,
Now your takin me over its
Just like the first time again
I used to dream so much,
But love would come and fall,
Help me to face the facts
I forgot that you werent gone
My heart wont listen when they say
you cant go back to yesterday
Somehow i broke the golden rule
Like a boat from the blue
Im falling for you
Chorus
Instrumental
(just like the first time, first time)
My heart keeps telling me your gone,
Rewind this tragedy, move on,
Just as i know what i should do
Like a boat from the blue
Im falling for you~
Chorus x2
Heaven Knows it's a lonely way living on my own,
I never thought that I would be this far from all I know,
I gave you all the love in me,
But love is blind and now I see,
The fool I've been believing you loved me,
I waited so long for you,
Now what am I supposed to do?
One day believe me you'll be sorry,
You're gonna feel this pain,
One day you'll see me and remember,
The promises you made,
Just wait and see how you'll be sorry,
One day your sky's gonna rain,
One day believe me, you'll come running,
Back to me again
Heaven knows you'll be back again,
When you feel the cold,
And the truth will find you out,
For all the lies you sold,
So chase the rainbows you can find,
'cos you've gone too far this time,
The fool I've been believing you were mine...
I waited so long for you,
Now what am I supposed to do?
One day believe me you'll be sorry,
You're gonna feel this pain,
One day you'll see me and remember,
The promises you made,
Just wait and see how you'll be sorry,
One day your sky's gonna rain,
One day believe me, you'll come running,
Back to me again
You'll be sorry,
When you realise the love you're missing,
You'll feel so lonely,
When you realise I'm not forgiving,
Not forgiving you,
No, no, no, no,
No forgiving, oh,
One day believe me you'll be sorry,
You're gonna feel this pain,
One day you'll see me and remember,
The promises you made,
Just wait and see how you'll be sorry,
One day your sky's gonna rain,
One day believe me, you'll come running,
And now , I know that I was wrong
You never really cared for me all along
And with you every dream I had
Was all it was , ain't that the fact
So I hold my head deep in my hands
I'm lost at sea no sign of land
I never knew what love could cost
No-one could know how much I've lost
I can't go on now that you've gone
Theres nothing left inside
I'll never understand why you had to lie
It's not enough to say you love
And then just say goodbye
I'll never break these chains
Theres no where to hide
Why did you have to lie?
And now that every hope has gone
I've got to find the strength to carry on
Alone , much more than before
I've given everything , theres nothing more
Why does it hurt so much when theres nothing I can do?
Why do I hate myself 'coz I can't stop loving you?
Now my life is empty
All I have is pain
I can't forget you
Why couldn't you have stayed?
Oh listen to me people
I ain't got time to think about money
Or what it could buy
And I ain't got time to sit down and wonder
What makes a birdie fly
And I don't have the time to think about
What makes the flower grow
And I've never given a second thought to where the rivers flow
[Chorus]
Too busy thinking about my baby yeah
And I ain't got time for nothing else
I ain't got time to discuss the weather
And how long it's gonna last
I ain't got time to do no studies
Once I get out of class
Telling you I'm just a girl, Saying I got a one track mind
When it comes to thinking about anything but my baby
I just don't have the time
[Chorus] (2x)
All the diamonds and pearls in the world
Could never match your worth, no, no
He's some kind of wonderful
People I tell ya
I got a heaven right here on earth
I'm just a guy
With a one, one track mind
When it comes to thinking about anything but my baby
I just don't got the time
[Chorus] (2x)
Too busy thinking about my baby
Ain't got time for nothing else, no, no, no
Too busy thinking about my baby
Ain't got time for nothing else, no, no, no
Take a chance, take a chance
Take a chaka-chance-chance
If you change your mind
I'm the first in line
Honey I'm still free
Take a chance on me
If you need me
Let me know
Gonna be around
If you got no place to go
When you're feeling down
Friday night and the lights are low
Looking out for a place to go
Where they play the right music
Getting in the swing
You come to look for a king
Anybody can be that guy
Night is young and the music's high
With a bit of rock music
Everything is fine
You're in the mood for a dance
And when you get the chance
You are the Dancing Queen
Young and sweet, only seventeen
Dancing Queen
Feel the beat from the tambourine, oh yeah
You can dance, you can jive
Having the time of your life
See that girl, watch that scene
Diggin' the dancing queen
I've been cheated by you
Since I don't know when
So I made up my mind
It must come to an end
Look at me now
Will I ever learn
I don't know how
But I suddenly lose control
There's a fire within my soul
Just one look and you can hear a bell ring
One more look, and I forget everything
Ohh-oh, mamma mia, here I go again
My, my, how can I resist ya?
Mamma mia does it show again
My, my, just how much I've missed ya
So I say thankyou for the music
The songs I'm singing
Thanks for all the joy they're bringing
Who can live without it
I ask in all honesty, what would life be
Without a song or a dance what are we
So I say thank you for the music
For giving it to me
So I say thankyou for the music
The songs I'm singing
Thanks for all the joy they're bringing
Who can live without it
I ask in all honesty, what would life be
Without a song or a dance what are we
So I thank ABBA for the music
Long ago, and, oh, so far away
I fell in love with you before the second show.
Your guitar, it sounds so sweet and clear,
but you're not really here.
It's just the radio.
Don't you remember you told me you loved me baby?
You said you'd be coming back this way again baby.
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh, baby.
I love you, I really do.
Loneliness is such a sad affair, and I can hardly wait
to be with you again.
What to say, to make you come again?
Come back to me again, and play your sad guitar.
Don't you remember you told me you loved me baby?
You said you'd be coming back this way again baby.
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh, baby.
I love you, I really do.
Don't you remember you told me you loved me baby?
You said you'd be coming back this way again baby.
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh, baby.
I love you, I really do.
Promises were never made,
Chances that we could have taken,
Sure I would stay forever with you,
Is it easier to live a lie?,
Tell my heart it's not worth trying,
It's hard when you're dreams are torn in two,
Thought we'd always be together,
I thought I'd never be out on my own again,
Lost without you,
Now that you're gone,
Holding on,
In My Heart I know it's time to say goodbye,
Stop me from loving you,
Even though I know we're through,
We're in the past can't afford the moment,
Cannot pretend I'm over you,
Thought we'd always be together,
I thought I'd never be out on my own again,
How wrong could I be?,
Now that you're gone,
Holding on,
In My Heart I know I want you in my life,
Stop me from loving you,
This feeling inside,
Cannot hide,
In my heart I know it's time to say goodbye,
Stop me from loving you,
Thought we'd always be together,
I thought I'd never be out on my own again,
How wrong could I be?,
In My Heart I know I want you in my life,
Stop me from loving you,
This feeling inside,
Cannot hide,
In my heart I know it's time to say goodbye,
Stop me from loving you,
Now that you're gone,
Holding on,
In My Heart I know I want you in my life,
Stop me from loving you,
This feeling inside,
Cannot hide,
In my heart I know it's time to say goodbye,
Stop me from loving you,
Now that you're gone.
La,La,La,La,La,La,La,La,La,La,La,La,La,La,La,La,(x4)
This was the last thing on my mind.
Are you hanging up your stocking on the wall?
Is it time that every Santa has a ball?
Does he ride a red nosed reindeer?
Does he tug upon a sleigh?
Do the fairies keep him sober for a day?
So here it is, Merry Christmas
Everybody’s having fun
Look to the future now
It’s only just begun
Are you waiting for the family to arrive?
Are you sure you got the room to spare inside?
Does your granny always tell ya
That the old songs are the best?
And she’s up and rock n rolling with the rest
So here it is, Merry Christmas
Everybody’s having fun
Look to the future now it’s only just begun
What will your daddy do
When he sees your mamma kissing Santa Claus?
Ahhh ahhh
Ahhh ahhh
Are you hinging up your socking on your wall?
Are you hoping that the snow will start to fall?
Do you rattle down the hillside
In the buggy you have made?
When you land upon your head then you will say
So here it is, Merry Christmas
Everybody’s having fun
Look to the future now
It’s only just begun
So here it is, Merry Christmas
Everybody’s having fun
Look to the future now
It’s only just begun
It’s only just begun
Everybody’s having fun

You stop and I go
Too fast, much too slow
Your uptown is downtown to me
I lose it, you find it
You're ahead and I'm behind it
Your day time is night-time to me
Feels like a million miles between us
Just like Mars & Venus
Must be the pull of gravity
I'm made for you, you're made for me
[Chorus]
Sometimes I drive you crazy
Sometimes you wanna change me
I say you don't, you say I do
That's how it plays with me and you
When we can't seem to make up
When we are about to break up
I look at you, you smile at me and then
We fall in love again
(Just like Mars & Venus)x2
You get what I don't
And you will when I just won't
Your upside is downside to me
I flip it, you drop it
You start me up and I can't stop it
You're on time is off time to me
Feels like a million miles between us
Just like Mars & Venus
Must be the pull of Gravity
I'm made for you, you're made for me
[Chorus]
For ever action, baby, baby, there's reaction
Must be opposite attraction
No matter what you're my ultimate distraction
And I know it gives you satisfaction
I was made for you and you were made for me
[Chorus]
We fall in love againx2
(Just Like Mars & Venus) to fade
I look at you we fall in love again
we fall in love again to fade
Mars and venus
Just like mars and venus
You stop and I go
Too fast, much too slow
You’re uptown is downtown to me
I lose it, you find it
You’re ahead and I’m behind it
You’re daytime is nighttime to me
Feels like a million miles between us
Just like mars and venus
Must be the pull of gravity
I’m made for you you’re made for me
{chorus}
Sometimes I drive you crazy
Sometimes you want to change me
I say you don’t you say I do
Thats how it plays with me and you
When we cant seem to make up
When we’re about to break up
I look at you,you smile at me and then
We fall in love again
(just like mars and venus) ( just like mars and venus)
You get what I don’t
And you will when I just won’t
You’re upside is downside to me
I flip it, you drop it
You start me up and I can’t stop it
You’re on time is off time to me
Feels like a million miles between us
Just like mars and venus
Must be the pull of gravity
I’m made for you you’re made for me
{chorus}
Sometimes I drive you crazy
Sometimes you want to change me
I say you don’t you say I do
Thats how it plays with me and you
When we cant seem to make up
When we’re about to break up
I look at you,you smile at me and then
We fall in love again
(just like mars and venus) ( just like mars and venus)
For every action, baby, there’s reaction
Must be opppsite attraction
No matter what you’re my ultimate distraction
And I know it gives you satisfaction
I was made for you and you were made for me
{chorus}
Sometimes I drive you crazy
Sometimes you want to change me
I say you don’t you say I do

Again and again and again

(Ooh ho)
I never read the signs,
The writing on the wall,
Cos life had begun
Can you be the one?
‘S not Deja ‘vu but I’m sure,
I’ve been here before
Love was all you had to lose,
But now I know it was too much for you.
Tell me why, I’m feeling the way I feel,
Deep inside, I know it’s not meant to be.
This time, I won’t take the easy way out,
I’m letting go,
Cos I don’t want you in mind
If you ain’t in it for love!
You never crossed the line,
I told my self I guess,
Cos I needed you to feel like I do
And, boy, I confess
I won’t settle for less
Love was all you had to lose,
But now I know it was too much for you.
Tell me why, I’m feeling the way I feel,
Deep inside, I know it’s not meant to be.
This time, I won’t take the easy way out,
I’m letting go,
Cos I don’t want you in mind
If you ain’t in it for love!
I know you’ve told me a thousand times
That there’s no love like yours and mine
But I can see through you
You don’t mean it do you?
So tell me why, I’m feeling the way I feel,
Deep inside, I know it’s not meant to be.
This time, I won’t take the easy way out,
I’m letting go,
Cos I don’t want you in mind
If you ain’t in it for love!
Cos I don’t want you in mind
If you ain’t in it for love!
No I don’t want you,
Don’t want you ,
If you ain’t in it for love!
If I tell you a secret
Would you ever tell a soul?
Inside I've got this feeling
And it's really taking hold
The spell that i've gone under
And it's irrisistible
So now I sit and wonder
Can one kiss change it all?
[Chorus]
Everybody needs a human touch
Does anybody really get enough?
It's a feeling we're all dreaming of
When two hearts beat as one
We all need what we call love
Does anybody really get enough?
It's a feeling we're all dreaming of
We need that human touch
You know when love has found you
It's a moment that is pure
Yet all at once I realized
Heaven made it yours
A miracle has happened
And it brought you to me
Now I'm caught up in the rapture
That only love can bring
[Chorus]
First time I ever saw you
I was mesmerized
And every day since I've fallen for you
Feels like paradise
We all need it, we all feel it
When two hearts beat, they beat as one
[Chorus]
Here and now I wanna be the one for you
In everything you want me to
Cos I couldn't live if were apart
time is running out on you and me
Cos nothings what it used to be
I guess I'm the only one to blame
But I promise you to make it right
Forget all the sorrows you bear within tonight
Believe in me when I say
Here and now I wanna be the one for you
In everything you want me to
Cos I couldn't live if were apart
Say there is something I can do
If I can make it up to you
For every time I let you down
And I promise you to make it right
Forget all the sorrows you bear within tonight
Believe in me when I say
Here and now I wanna be the one for you
In everything you want me to
Cos I couldn't live if were
apart
Here and now lets tear down the walls together
it's better late than never
I know that we could find a way here and now
Ill be there for you
Here and now I wanna be the one for you
In everything you want me to
Cos I couldn't live if were
apart
Here and now I wanna be the one for you
In everything you want me to
Cos I couldn't live if were
apart
Here and now I wanna fall in love again
And try to be the best I can
Whispered:
Drop, drop, drop in the ocean (X 4)
Verse 1.
Can you hear? There's a whisper in the air
Can you feel that a new heart is beating?
Each drop runs down to the end of the river
Where the past and the future are one
Verse 2.
Some may sail to the ends of the world
But no matter how mighty their journey
Every stranger they meet
Will tomorrow be a brother
Every life's another drop in the o-o-ocean.
Chorus:
I'm a drop in the ocean
Drop of emotion
I'm a part of the ever changing tide
I can rise up as rain
I can fall down like thunder
All it takes is just a drop in the o-o-ocean
Whispered:
Drop, drop, drop in the ocean (X 4)
Verse 3.
Some have died for a wish to be free
Some at war, some for no crime or reason
Every tear falling down helped the world tell it's story
Every life's another drop in the o-o-ocean.
Chorus:
I'm a drop in the ocean, drop of emotion
I'm a part of the ever changing tide
I can rise up as rain
I can fall down like thunder
All it takes is just a drop in the o-o-ocean
Whispered:
Drop, drop, drop in the ocean (X 4)
Chorus:
Drop in the ocean, drop of emotion
I'm a drop in the ocean of dreams
I can touch every shore
Join together every nation
All it takes is just a drop in the o-o-ocean.
Coda:
Drop, drop, drop in the ocean
Drop, drop, drop in the ocean
Drop, drop, drop in the ocean
Drop, drop, drop in the ocean
The ocean... The ocean...
The ocean... The ocean...
In the ocean... In the ocean...
In the ocean... In the ocean...
The ocean...
Deeper Shade Of Blue
(Topham/Twigg)
Album: Steptacular
Lead Vocals: H and Claire
Yeah, I'm a deeper shade of blue
And there's nothing I can do
You're so far, far away
Into each life some rain must fall
I didn't know I would catch it all
The clear skies have gone
And you with them too
It's not the same now without you
I used to say you're so beautiful
But it didn't change a thing at all
There's nowhere to run
Got nowhere to hide
I can't forget you when I've tried, but...
I'm a deeper shade of blue
And there's nothing I can do
You're so far, far away
Yeah, I'm a darker shade of me
And I just can't be free
You're so far, far away
You're so far away
Into each life some sun must shine
Well someone else must be getting mine
The days are so empty
Night's are so long
Awaking to find again that you've gone
I used to say you were wonderful
Now I just wonder where you are
It's easy to say, memories fade
But I'm still missing you
Nothing's changed... and
I'm a deeper shade of blue
And there's nothing I can do
You're so far, far away
Yeah, I'm a darker shade of me
And I just can't be free
You're so far, far away
You're so far away
Summer is over
And all we are is apart
The nights are so cold now
Without you in my heart, 'cos...
I'm a deeper shade of blue
And there's nothing I can do
You're so far, far away
Oh set me free
Everyone stand up
Stand up and move around
Everybody clap just clap
Just clap your hands
Everybody jam, jam

Bringing it on, bringing it on, bringing it on, bringing it on
Come on get together
Make it last forever
Come on get together
Everybody jump around
Just check it out it's going down
Spot you down somewhere in the city
In the night
Right side, bodies over-heated
Set it alive
Now that the heat is rising
Feels so tantalizing
What it is you do
You've got it going on
You turn me on
Baby, baby
Move close to me
Take anything you want from me
Baby, baby
Just slide up close
We've got it going on
Ah na na na na na...
Right now
Can't you feel the rhythm?
Lose control
Can't wait
Into a new beginning
Free your soul
(Oh free my soul)
Now that the heat is rising
Feels so tantalizing
What it is you do
You've got it going on
You turn me on
Baby, baby
Move close to me
Take anything you want from me
Baby, baby
Just slide up close
We've got it going on

Bittersweet memories
That's all I'll take with me.
No matter what I know now I'll get by.
Hooooo
I watch the trees loose autumn leaves,
I see them blowing in the breeze,
Images falling through my mind.
Floating outside time.
Open the window feel the cold,
Snowflakes in silver and in gold,
And the light fades away into dark, like my heart.
Bittersweet memories
That's all I'll take with me,
No matter what I know now I'll get by.
Hooooo
Bittersweet when we meet,
That's how it's come to be,
'Coz I'm stronger now and I won't run and hide.
Hooooo
Now the same leaves are young and green,
So many colours fill my dreams,
And seeds of hope will bloom with love.
A promise of brighter days to come,
Rainbows are dancing, clear blue skies,
Waterfalls glisten in my eyes.
Every day the sun makes a new start,
Like my heart.
Bittersweet memories
That's all I'll take with me,
No matter what I know now I'll get by.
Hooooo
Bittersweet when we meet,
That's how its come to be,
'Coz I'm stronger now and I won't run and hide.
Hooooo
Now and then we can all lose our way,
Tomorrow's gonna bring a better day,
And I can see that finally you're free.
Ho ho ho ho
Bittersweet memories
That's all I'll take with me,
No matter what I know now I'll get by.
Hooooo
Bittersweet when we meet,
That's how its come to be,
'Coz I'm stronger now and I won't run and hide.
Hooooo
Bittersweet memories
That's all I'll take with me,
No matter what I know now I'll get by.
Hooooo
Bittersweet when we meet,
That's how it's come to be,
'Coz I'm stronger now and I won't run and hide.
Hooooo
Bittersweet.
All the thugs in the clubs get your cris on ice

Yo, who got the inflow keeping it tight
Lisa Maffia

Tonight leave out the crib with the Gucci prize

Outside the club security tight
Skip through the queue to the door on the right
Up on the floor by the bar what do you like
Time out bezzel techno ice

Into room two playing joints i like
Breakers being Harlem shaking all night
And if you're in the mood grip left and right
Party all night we don't want to fight

In the VIP Dready be bringing the vibes
One glass of verve two shots of ice
Ladies shake your a** all night
[Chorus]

JD Dready productions
Right under your nastiness
Here I lie in a lost and lonely part of town
Held in time in a world of tears I slowly drown
Goin' home I just can't make it all alone
I really should be holding you, holding you
Loving you, loving you
Tragedy, when the feeling's gone and you can't go on
It's tragedy, when the morning cries
And you don't know why, it's hard to bear
With no one to love you, you're going nowhere
Tragedy, when you lose control and you got no soul
It's tragedy, when the morning cries
And you don't know why, it's hard to bear
With no one beside you, you're going nowhere
Night and day there's a burning down inside of me, oh, ooh
Burning love with a yearning that won't let me be
Down I go and I just can't take it all alone
I really should be holding you, holding you
Loving you, loving you
Tragedy, when the feeling's gone and you can't go on
It's tragedy, when the morning cries
And you don't know why, it's hard to bear
With no one to love you, you're going nowhere
Tragedy, when you lose control and you got no soul
It's tragedy, when the morning cries
And you don't know why, it's hard to bear
With no one beside you, you're going nowhere
Tragedy, when the feeling's gone and you can't go on
It's tragedy, when the morning cries
And you don't know why, it's hard to bear
With no one to love you, you're going nowhere
Tragedy, when you lose control and you got no soul
It's tragedy, when the morning cries
And it hurts inside, it's hard to bear
With no one beside you, you're going nowhere
Nothing is so good it lasts eternally,
Perfect situations must go wrong,
But this have never yet prevented me,
Wanting far to much,
For far too long,
Looking back I could have played it differently,
Won a few more moments who can tell,
But it took time to understand men,
Now at least I know,
I know him well,
Wasn't it good,
Oh so good,
Wasn't he fine,
Oh so fine,
Isn't madness he can't be mine,
But in the end he needs a little bit more than me,
More, security,
He needs fantasy and freedom,
I know him so well,
No one in your life is with you constantly,
No one is completely on your side,
And though I'd move my world to be with him,
Still the gap between us is too wide,
Looking back I could have played differently,
Won a few more moments who can tell,
(I was just a little girl)
But I was ever so much younger then,
(So much younger then)
Now at least I know,
I know him well.
Wasn't it good,
Oh so good,
Wasn't he fine,
Oh so fine,
Isn't madness he won't be mine,
Didn't I know,
How it would go,
If I knew from the start,
Why am I falling apart?
Wasn't he good,
Wasn't he fine,
Isn't it madness he won't be mine,
But in the end he needs a little bit more than me,
More, security,
He needs his fantasy and freedom,
It took time to understand men,
Mars and venus
Just like mars and venus
You stop and I go
Too fast, much too slow
You're uptown is downtown to me
I lose it, you find it
You're ahead and I'm behind it
You're daytime is nighttime to me
Feels like a million miles between us
Just like mars and venus
Must be the pull of gravity
I'm made for you you're made for me
{chorus}
Sometimes I drive you crazy
Sometimes you want to change me
I say you don't you say I do
Thats how it plays with me and you
When we cant seem to make up
When we're about to break up
I look at you,you smile at me and then
We fall in love again
(just like mars and venus) ( just like mars and venus)
You get what I don't
And you will when I just won't
You're upside is downside to me
I flip it, you drop it
You start me up and I can't stop it
You're on time is off time to me
Feels like a million miles between us
Just like mars and venus
Must be the pull of gravity
I'm made for you you're made for me
{chorus}
Sometimes I drive you crazy
Sometimes you want to change me
I say you don't you say I do
Thats how it plays with me and you
When we cant seem to make up
When we're about to break up
I look at you,you smile at me and then
We fall in love again
(just like mars and venus) ( just like mars and venus)
For every action, baby, there's reaction
Must be opppsite attraction
No matter what you're my ultimate distraction
And I know it gives you satisfaction
I was made for you and you were made for me
{chorus}
Sometimes I drive you crazy
Sometimes you want to change me
I say you don't you say I do
Thats how it plays with me and you
When we cant seem to make up
When we're about to break up
I look at you,you smile at me and then
We fall in love again
(just like mars and venus) ( just like mars and venus)
We fall in love again
(just like mars and venus)
You smile at me and then
We fall in love again
(just like mars and venus)
Again and again and again
( just like mars and venus)
We fall in love again
Better the devil you know
Better the devil you know
Better the devil you know
Better the devil you know
Oh, oh
Say you won't need me no more
I'll take you back again
No more excuses, no no
Cos I've heard them all before
A hundred times or more
I'll forgive and forget
If you say you'll never go (woah)
Cos it's true what they say
It's better the devil you know
Woah
Our love wasn't perfect, I know
I think I know the score
If you say you love me, oh boy
I can't ask for more
I'll come if you should call (woah)
I'll forgive and forget
If you say you'll never go
Cos it's true what they say
It's better the devil you know
Woah
I'll be here every day
Waiting for your love to show (woah)
Yes it's true what they say
It's better the devil you know
Woah
Woah
Woah
Oh, woah
Say you won't leave me no more
I'll take you back again
No more excuses (no, no)
Cos I've heard them all before
A hundred times or more
I'll forgive and forget
If you say you'll never go (woah)
Cos it's true what they say
It's better the devil you know
I'll be here every day
Waiting for your love to show (woah)
Yes it's true what they say
It's better the devil you know
I'll forgive and forget
If you say you'll never go (woah)
Cos it's true what they say
If only you read my mind
You'd see I was hurt inside
A thousand times I've told myself it's over (it's over)
But the story has just begun
And darling whats done is done
It's time to change and leave the past behind
Why should we know all the answers
Or how the story ends (so baby)
Let's take a chance on a happy ending
(Let's) turn the page and stop pretending
The past can stop a heart from mending
It's time to let go 'cos baby you know
Some things are better best forgotten
And baby we can't pretend
In time the scars will mend
Please believe me theres a chance
let's take it (let's take it)
And maybe at last we'll find
That love should be true not blind
You can't decieve a heart that's open wide
(And) even now it's not to late
To change the story's end (so baby)
Let's take a chance on a happy ending
(Let's) turn the page and stop pretending
The past can stop a heart from mending
It's time to let go 'cos baby you know
Some things are better best forgotten
The story has just begun
Darlin' what's done is done
Baby, I'm in love
Don't hold me back, don't stop me now
Baby, I'm in love
Can't hold me back, don't stop me now
Baby, I'm in love
Can't hold me back, no way, no how
Baby, I'm in love
Don't stop me now, can't hold me back
And when I'm with you, baby
I'm never gonna give it up
Just me and you, baby
Our love is enough, is enough
Baby, don't dance, baby, don't sing
Baby, don't have to do anything
'Cause my baby's got something that does it for me
This is love that we got and I like it, I like it
Baby, don't groove, baby, don't swing
Baby, don't have to prove anything
'Cause my baby's so real, it's the way I feel
This is love and I like it
It makes my heart go boom, bang, boom, boom
It makes my heart go boom, baby, boom, boom
Baby, I'm in love
And I'm feeling high and it feels so right
Baby, I'm in love
Can't hold me back, don't stop me now
And when I'm with you, baby
I'm never gonna give it up
Just me and you, baby
Our love is enough, is enough
Baby, don't dance, baby, don't sing
Baby, don't have to do anything
'Cause my baby's got something that does it for me
This is love that we got and I like it, I like it
Baby, don't groove, baby, don't swing
Baby, don't have to prove anything
'Cause my baby's so real it's the way I feel
This is love and I like it
It makes my heart go boom, bang, boom, boom
It makes my heart go boom, bang, boom, boom
And when I'm with you, baby
I'm never gonna give it up
Just me and you, baby

This is love that we got and I like it, I like it
Baby, don't groove, baby, don't swing
Baby don't have to prove anything
'Cause my baby's so real it's the way I feel
Here we are, we're perfect strangers
After all this time there's no more you and I
But don't look for blame
We've come so far to different places
And now try to live a lie would be a crime
It's better this way
And we may not have tomorrow
But there's always yesterday
After the love has gone
Only fools carry on
We've been hurting for so long
And we both know that it's wrong
After the love has gone
Then we just don't belong
We both know that it's wrong
After the love has gone
It's clear this far, nothing to say now
We sang alone and tried so hard to play the game
It all ends the same
Just words no more to fill these spaces
When love is gone it's only wrong to try again
I know it's a shame
That we may not have tomorrow
But there's always yesterday
After the love has gone
Only fools carry on
We've been hurting for so long
And we both know that it's wrong
After the love has gone
Then we just don't belong
We both know that it's wrong
After the love has gone
Here we are, we're perfect strangers
And now try to live a lie would be a crime
It's better this way
And we may not have tomorrow
But there's always yesterday
After the love has gone
Only fools carry on
We've been hurting for so long
And we both know that it's wrong
After the love has gone
Then we just don't belong
We both know that it's wrong
It's time to begin - now count it in...

If I was there, if I was there you'd see
All we need is time.
All we need is baba baba baba.
How do ya know?
All we need is time.
All we need is time.
All we need is baba baba.
But only in my dreams
I'm living without you
Giving my heart
To somebody new
It never should have been this way
You know we almost had it made
With feelings so right
How wrong could I be?
(That was then)
And now there's not a day I live
(Can't pretend)
That there's anything I wouldn't give
Believe in the end
You'll come back to me
Cos now you're gone
I'm standing still in time
I should be moving on
Leaving you behind
But only in my dreams
I'm living without you
Giving my heart
To somebody new
And I could make believe
I'm getting over you
But that's just the part
I can't seem to do
I'm moving on from should have beens
But only in my dreams
(I was wrong)
I never should have shied away
(Holdin on)
From tender words I should have said
A lesson well learnt
But I learnt it too late
(Now you're gone)
How am I supposed to live
When my heart's no longer mine to give
It's locked in the past can't go back
It's a cruel twist of fate
Cos now you're gone
There's no good in goodbye
I should be movin on
Leaving you behind
But only in my dreams
I'm living without you
Giving my heart
To somebody new
And I could make believe
I'm getting over you
But that's just the part
I can't seem to do
I'm moving on from should have beens
But only in my dreams
So I guess I'll keep dreaming
Maybe one day I'll let you go
But seeing is believing
I've got to let you know
In my dreams
I'm without you
I give my heart
To someone new (only in my)
Make believe (make believe)
I'm over you
I'm movin on from should have beens
But only in my dreams
I'm livin without you
Giving my heart
To somebody new
And I could make believe
I'm getting over you
I'm movin on from should have beens
But only in my dreams
I think I heard about a thousand times or more
Don't you bother wasting time
You're telling me
You're so much better than before
But I find it hard believin'
Until you prove me wrong
If you really want my love
If I'm all you're dreaming of
You may find it tough
Cos words are not enough
(If you want my love)
I wouldn't ever make the same mistake again
Don't wanna be nobody's fool
I wouldn't play the losing game where you can't win
There ain't nothing that I'm missing
So you'd better prove me wrong
If you really want my love
If I'm all you're dreaming of
You may find it tough
'Cause words are not enough
If you want my love
You know it ain't easy
To find a new way
After everything that we've been through
So come on and please me
And show that I'm wrong
Let me see you bring the best out of you
If you really want my love
If I'm all you're dreaming of
You may find it tough
'Cause words are not enough
If you want my love
If I'm all you're dreaming of (all you're dreaming of)
You may find it tough
'Cause words are not enough
If you really want my love (if you want my love)
If I'm all you're dreaming of (all you're dreaming of)
You may find it tough
'Cause words are not enough
If you really want my love (if you want my love)
If I'm all you're dreaming of (all you're dreaming of)
You may find it tough
Used to say I know,
To Find love I'd climb any mountain,
Now I've reached the top,
The only way is down again.
You're not everything to me that matters,
My whole world when you leave won't shatter,
I will my best to make you see,
You're not everything,
No you're not everything that matters to me,
I know I should have told you,
If you want my arms to ever hold you,
Gonna need more love than this,
How will I make you see,
If you want the whole truth,
You'll find that I'm trying to show you,
Just what your love means to me,
I can't let you in,
You're not everything to me that matters,
My whole world when you leave won't shatter,
I will my best to make you see,
You're not everything,
No you're not everything that matters to me,
Don't wanna spend my whole life,
Just waiting on the pain oh oh oh,
I need some time, I need some time,
While I'm waiting in the rain,
And if I let you hold me,
Will I ever survive,
So I'll deny these feelings,
I've tried hard so long to hide,
You're not everything to me that matters,
My whole world when you leave won't shatter,
I will do my best to make you see,
You're not everything, no you're not everything to me oh oh,
You're not everything,
I've never met somebody
That does what you do
Takes my emotions and make each one
Fell brand new
Trouble is there is someone
Been here in my heart
So now I've got to put an end to
What I've been dying to start
And it wouldn't hurt so bad
If it didn't feel so good
You know Id be with you
If there was anyway I ever could
You know I wouldn't miss your touch
If I didn't want it so much
I don't want to go
But I should
You know it wouldn't hurt so bad
If it didn't feel so good
Sounds like it should be easy
But it's just so hard
We've got to come to our senses
Before we go too far
I want you but I cant have you
So sad so true
Gott a be careful what you wish for
Cos this could never come true
And it wouldn't hurt so bad
If it didn't feel so good
You know Id be with you
If there was anyway I ever could
You know I wouldn't miss your touch
If I didn't want it so much
I don't want to go
But I should
You know it wouldn't hurt so bad
If it didn't feel so good
I cant help seeing how it could be
I close my eyes and you're here next to me
I'm helplessly watching us start to fade
And love slip away
And it wouldn't hurt so bad
If it didn't feel so good
You know Id be with you
If there was anyway I ever could
You know I wouldn't miss your touch
If I didn't want it so much
I don't want to go
But I should
You know it wouldn't hurt so bad
I thought that we were set for life,
Will be together man and wife,
But all the plans I made for us,
Have changed,
I thought I could decide for you,
Everything that we would do,
I wish I could have bit my tongue,
But I kept going on and on,
Words of wisdom,
Everyone offers me,
Words of wisdom,
Now I can see,
That it's easy on the outside,
To give an advice,
But now your gone,
And I can recognize,
What I put you through,
With those words of wisdom,
I gave to you
Everybody's telling me everybody's telling me,
It clearly wasn't meant to be,
But they don't know how much I hurt you,
I was wrong,
Now I realize that being wise so wise,
Doesn't always mean to criticise,
And by driving your love away,
I know now what not to say,
Words of wisdom,
Everyone offers me,
Words of wisdom,
Now I can see,
That it's easy on the outside,
To give an advice,
But now your gone,
And I can recognize,
What I put you through,
With those words of wisdom,
I gave to you
They tell me how life goes on,
And I gotta be strong,
But I don't wanna be looked upon,
As someone who really needs,
Words of wisdom,
Words of wisdom,
Everyone offers me,
Words of wisdom,
Now I can see,
That it's easy on the outside,
To give an advice,
But now your gone,
And I can recognize,
What I put you through,
With those words of wisdom,
I gave to you
I gave to you (words of wisdom),
I gave to you (words of wisdom),
I said too much, went way too far
It's only now, now we're apart
That I can see I was wrong
And you're where I belong
So please don't make me cry
I know you don't believe it,
But I really didn't mean it
When I said goodbye.
(When I said goodbye)
I was a fool, now I'm alone
Would you have stayed,
Stayed if you had known
That every thought is of you
Hurt is all I can do
Without you in my life.
I know you don't believe it
But I really didn't mean it
When I said goodbye
I can't bear to watch you fly,
I need you in my life
Don't say goodbye
Let's give love another chance
It used to be that you and me
Was all we needed to know
I can't believe you're leaving
And I can't live my life alone
We've changed so much
And still love remains
Let's work it out,
There's no need to turn the page
You're love is everything
Don't let go, we can win
If we would only try
I know you don't believe it
But I really didn't mean it
When I said goodbye
(Goodbye)

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
I'd do anything to be your hero.
Maybe I'm never gonna change the world,
Or split the atom in two,
I know one man can't save the universe,
But girl if I could,
I'd do it for you,
I'd give you anything you asked for,
I'll be your knight in shining armour,
And just like Superman,
I'd move heaven and earth,
In order to save you,
Swim seven seas,
To come to your rescue,
What would it take,
Just let me know,
I'd do anything to be your hero,
I know I may not be invincible,
Or be the world's strongest man,
But baby nothing seems impossible,
With you by my side,
I'll hold back the time,
I'll be your knight in shining armour,
Bright light to guide you into harbour,
And just like Superman,
I'd move heaven and earth,
In order to save you,
Swim seven seas,
To come to your rescue,
What would it take,
Just let me know,
I'd do anything to be your hero,
I'd fly through the air,
Protect you from danger,
Walk through fire,
To win back your favour,
What more would it take,
I have to know,
'Cos I'd do anything to be your hero,
I'd do anything to be your hero,
Hero (hero, hero) (won't you be my)
Hero (hero, hero)
Hero (hero, hero) (come on)
I'd do anything to be your hero,
I'd move heaven and earth,
In order to save you,
Swim seven seas,
To come to your rescue,
What would it take,
Just let me know,
I'd do anything to be your hero,
I'd fly through the air,
Protect you from danger,
Walk through fire to win back your favour,
What more would it take,
I have to know,
'Cos I'd do anything to be your hero,
My love after all we've said and done
Are you tellin' me the time has come?
To go our separate ways
And now after all that we've been thru
If you won't let me make it up to you
The truth I'll have to face
You won't be here tomorrow
But I'll get through the sorrow baby
(Now that you're gone)
I'll keep the fires burning though my heart's breakin'
(I'll carry on)
'cos every day I'm learning life's for the taking
No matter what, I know that in the end
At least I can be certain
This heart will love again
I know we can't go on livin' yesterdays
Wish there was something more that I could say
To make my heart forget
But now if you really have to go
Then I must somehow find the strength to show
No sadness no regret
You won't be here tomorrow
But I'll get through the sorrow baby
I won't be here tomorrow
This is the summer of love
Tonight the fiesta will come
It's the summer of love
Tonight we live la vida loca
Yes we'll have the time of our lives
A fiesta we'll always remember
Tonight we will taste paradise
Life is sweet and we treasure each moment
Moving closely with me as we sway
For tonight we forget our tomorrow
It's time for the music to play
The temperature's rising
You search the horizon
And there's not a cloud in the sky
So dance, it's the summer of love
Tonight the fiesta will come
One hundred degrees
In the shade of the trees
One more time
Tonight is the night of our lives
De fruta la vida that's right
One hundred degrees
And we turn up the heat
One more time for the summer of love
The night is when friends become lovers
And people are lost in their dreams
Tomorrow the spell may be broken
So celebrate love and be free
The rhythm of life beats within you
Dont' try to resist when it calls
Move closer to me feel the music
Now nothing else matters at all
The temperature's rising
You search the horizon
And there's not a cloud in the sky
So dance, it's the summer of love
Tonight the fiesta will come
One hundred degrees
In the shade of the trees
One more time
Tonight is the night of our lives
De fruta la vida that's right
One hundred degrees
And we turn up the heat
One more time for the summer of love
No we dance in the moonlight
And I see love in your eyes
Look to the stars, make a wish
Don't try to resist
It's the summer of love
Tonight is the night of our lives
De fruta la vida that's right
One hundred degrees
And we turn up the heat
Thank God for the weekend,

For feeling alright,
Come and taste the spice of life,
Tonight nothing matters,
Come and feel the groove,
Let it into you,
You know what you've gotta do,
Every Friday when my work is done now,

Everybody clap your hands,
Get up and dance,
We're gonna stomp all night now,
Everybody move your feet,
Get up and feel the beat,
We're gonna stomp all night now,
All I need is the music,
To get me high,
Feeling so alive,
Leaving all my cares behind,
Keep doing your own thing,
And I'll keep doing mine,
Dancing through the night,
This where I feel alright,
Every Friday when my work is done now,
I get my party on,
I call a few friends of mine,
Make sure I'm looking fine,
I know we're gonna have a real good time, yeah,
Everybody clap your hands,
Get up and dance,

Cos now is the time,
All I need is the music,
To get me high,
Everybody, everybody,
We're gonna, we're gonna,
Stomp all night now,
Everybody clap your hands and get up and dance
When I close my eyes, and you're not there
I feel this emptiness inside - do you care?
If you have to go I'll understand
But th pain's so hard to take when we're apart
You'll never see me cry - it's locked away
But theres this feeling deep within me wants to stay
And if you were here would things be right
I need to find my way alone to win this fight
Stay with me tonight
One more time could make it right
One more chance to hold you tight
Won't you stay with me tonight?
And there's just no point in looking back
And finding fault in everything we ever had
And the promises we made with tears
Will always be with me in times - when you're not here
If I hold you close no need to fight
I know that nothing I could say would make it right
If the chance has gone slipped away
I used to think
That I had left you far behind
But time has never quite erased you from my mind
My heart keeps telling me you're gone
Can't re-write history
Move on
Just as I know what I should do
Like a bolt from the blue
In walks you
Right back the where I started
Broken-hearted
Never thought I could feel this way
Just like we never parted
Look what you've started
Now you're taking me over
It's just like the first time again
I used to dream
Some other love would come along
Help me to face the facts
Forget that you were gone
My heart won't listen when they say
You can't go back to yesterday
Somehow I broke the golden rule
Like a bolt from the blue
I'm falling for you
My heart keeps telling me you're gone
Can't re-write history
Move on
Somehow I broken the golden rule
Like a bolt from the blue
I'm falling for you
Just like the first time
That you're taking me over
Holding you so gently
I gave you room to breathe
Now all I feel is empty
Why did you have to leave
What happened to forever
Is nothing built to last
My whole world could shatter
I'm fading fast
Yeah I'm fading fast
I need someone to save me
You don't know 'til you've been in love
I need to find a way back
And I don't know if I'm strong enough
And though I'm longing for yesterday
I guess there's really nothing left to say
'Cos now that's just a memory
since you took your love away
since you took your love away
I'm trying to forgive you
But I'm not proud to say
That after all we've been through
It's hard to find a way
I'm trying not to hate you
For pushing me aside
But when a heart is breaking
Well it's hard to hide
Yes it's hard to hide now
I need someone to save me
You don't know 'til you've been in love
It's hard to find a way back
And I don't know if I'm strong enough
And though I'm longing for yesterday
I guess there's really nothing left to say
'Cos now that's just a memory
Since you took your love away
since you took your love away
You took your love
Oh baby
NO I need you
I need someone to save me
You don't know 'til you've been in love
It's hard to find a way back
And I don't know if I'm strong enough
And though I'm longing for yesterday
I guess there's really nothing left to say
'Cos now that's just a memory
Since you took your love away
Baby I was hypnotised
When I looked into your eyes
Saw the love I'd been waitin' for
Couldn't help but fantasize
'bout a world where you and I
Stay together for evermore
Don't hesitate
'cos I can't control my feelings
Just can't wait
Now I know where this is leadin'
Baby please, this heart's on the line
Don't waste this precious time
Say you'll be mine
It's not hard to do
Just tell me you feel it too
Baby it's time
Say you'll be mine (say you'll be mine)
Took a spark to start the fire
Fan the flame of my desire
Turn the light on my destiny
An' it took me by surprise
All the love I felt inside
Now I know it was meant to be
An' step by step
I can feel how close we're getting
Can't stop yet
'cos I know where this is headin'
Baby please, this heart's on the line
Don't waste this precious time
Say you'll be mine
It's not hard to do
Just tell me you feel it too
Baby it's time
Say you'll be mine (say you'll be mine)
Baby it's time (it's time)
(Say you'll be mine
Say it, All you gotta do is say it (just say it)
You're the one I've been waiting for
Say it, All you gotta do is say it (just say it)
Baby please, this heart's on the line
Don't waste this precious time
Say you'll be mine
It's not hard to do (not hard to do)
Just tell me you feel it too (feel it too)
Baby it's time
Say you'll be mine (say you'll be mine)
Say, say you'll be mine (say you'll be mine)
Say, say you'll be mine (say you'll be mine)
Say, say you'll be mine
Baby it's time
Say you'll be mine (say you'll be mine)
Baby please, this heart's on the line
Don't waste this precious time
Say you'll be mine
It's not hard to do (not hard to do)
Just tell me you feel it too (feel it too)
Baby it's time
Say you'll be mine (say you'll be mine)
Baby it's time
Across the desert sands I watch a caravan
And dream it could take me to you
As the east wind blows
I shiver to my bones
Cos all I can think of is you
I still feel you here
The memories are clear
So don't go forgetting my love
How we learned to be free
How we dreamed the same dream
Now nothings what it seems
Paradise lost is a place without you
In the shadow of love there's no room with a view
Walking alone on the sand
Wish you were here again here again
Wishing you were here again
I watch the sun go down and head back into town
The same way I used to with you
Up and down these streets
The music sounds so sweet
But it always reminds me of you
I still feel you here the memories so clear
So don't go forgetting my love
How we learned to be free
How we shared everything
Until you come back to me
Paradise lost is a place without you
In the shadow of love theres no room with a view
Walking alone on the sand
Wish you were here again here again
Wishing you were here again
Do you remember
Laying here with me
Do you remember
The way we used to be
Paradise lost is a place without you
In the shadow of love theres no room with a view
Walking alone on the sand
Wish you were here again here again
Wishing you were here again
Paradise lost is a place without you
In the shadow of love theres no room with a view
Walking alone on the sand
Wish you were here again
I wish you were here again
And Tell me baby
I wanted your love,
But look what it's done to me,
All my dreams have come to nothing,
Who would have believed?
All the laughter that we shared would be a memory,
I cannot count the tears you've cost me,
If I could have seen.
And do you ever think of me,
And how we used to be?
Oh, I know you're somewhere else right now,
And loving someone else no doubt,
Well I'm one for sorrow,
Ain't it too too bad?
Are you breaking someone else's heart?
'Cos you're taking my love where you are,
Well I'm one for sorrow,
Ain't it too bad about us,
I wanted your love,
But I got uncertainty,
I tried so hard to understand you,
All the good it did me,
Now the places that we knew,
Remind of how we were,
Everything is just the same,
But all I feel is hurt,
And do you ever think of me,
Boy look into these eyes,
It's time you realised,
I've had my share of life's heartaches and misery,
Too many times before,
Oh how I've been so sure it's meant to be,
And each every time,
I step across the line,
Just like the fool I am,
I swear it'll be the last,
But here I go again,
Listening to my heart,
It's telling me it's time to move on,
You gotta let it go,
When something in my mind,
Keeps saying no.
No sad goodbyes,
No one last tries,
See I've had enough takin' chances on love,
And I said I'd never do it again,
One look at you,
At once I knew,
That no matter whatever,
I'll never say never again.
And on the day he left,
I crossed my heart and said,
I will be stong instead,
Ready to stand my ground,
This time enoughs enough,
Don't want a another love to let me down,
And though forget,
It's over now and yet,
You know I did my best to leave it all in the past,
But boy I guess I never counted on my heart,
It's telling me it's time to move on,
You gotta let it go,
But something in my mind's still saying no.
No sad goodbyes,
No one last tries,
See I've had enough takin' chances on love,
And I said I'd never do it again,
One look at you,
At once I knew,
That no matter whatever,
(Heart, heart, heart, heart, heart, heart)
Love's got a hold on my heart
(Love's got a hold on my heart)
I'm calling out
Won't somebody out there hear my SOS (SOS)
Throw me a life line please, and save me
There's no doubt
Baby, you took me prisoner I confess
When you crossed my defences
And captured my heart
And now it's too late to put up a fight
I thought I was strong but as hard as I try
Can't break away
Darling, there's no way out
Nothing can help me now
Love's got a hold on my heart
(My heart, my heart, heart, heart, heart)
(Love's got a hold of my heart)
There's no escape (there's no escape)
Now I'm like a damsel in distress
Trapped in this fairy tale forever (ooh ooh)
And no mistake
Its tragic but I'll have to face the truth I guess
And live ever more resigned to my fate
Cos now it's too late to put up a fight
I thought I was strong but try as I might
Can't break away
Darling, there's no way out
Nothing can help me now
Love's got a hold on my heart,
Yeah, yeah
Love's got a hold on my heart
Hold on my heart
Hold on my heart
(Love's got a hold on my,
Its got a hold on my heart)
(Heart, heart, heart, heart, heart, heart, heart, heart)
Oh oh
(Heart, heart, heart, heart, heart, heart, heart, heart)
Yeah
Ooh oh
And now its too late to put up a fight
I thought I was strong but try as I might
Can't break away
Darling, there's no way out
Nothing can help me now
Love's got a hold on my heart
Can't break away
Darling, there's no way out
Nothing can help me now
Love's got a hold on my heart (ooh ooh)
You can make the sun turn purple
You can make the sea turn turtle
But you know you can never make me
Love you more
You can turn wine into water
Turn sadness into laughter
But you know you can never make me
Love you more
Let the sky fall down
Let the leaves turn brown
Still you know you can never make me
Love you more
Let the redwoods die
Let the wells run dry
Still you know you can never make me
Love you more
You can make dew into diamonds
Or pacify the lions
But you know you can never make me
Love you more
You can make me dance to order
My self hung torn and quartered
But you know you can never make me
Love you more
Let the new day hide
Leave the scars inside
Still you know you can never make me
Love you more
Let the rain pour down
Let the valleys drown
Still you know you can never make me
Hey you know you can never make me
Love you more
Ooh ooh ooh yeah yeah
We can make the sun turn purple
We can make the sea turn turtle
But you know you can never make me
Love you more
We can turn wine into water
Turn sadness into laughter
But you know you can never make me
Love you more
Let the sky fall down
Let the leaves turn brown
Still you know you can never make me
Love you more
Let the redwoods die
As the wells run dry
Still you know you can never make me
Hey you know you can never make me
Yeah you know you can never make me
How could it go wrong when I dreamed for so long,
Of you and no one else,
I thought you were truly the one who knew me,
Better than know myself,
And since you went away I face the pain each day,
Of livin' without you,
Love had a hold on me and then it set me free,
Now there's nothing I can do but....
Learn to love again (though it's hard I will believe)
I know the pain won't last,
I'll get there in the end (gonna make it through you'll see)
I'll mend this broken heart and....
Learn to love again (gotta get back on my feet)
I know the pain will pass,
And though I don't know, I'll get there in the end,
Somehow I'll learn to love again
So many lessons, so many questions,
I'm tired of "what could have beens",
(but) nothing's forever, never say never,
Who knows where the heart will lead,
'Cos when you've been in love you know it's not enough,
To live without someone who cares,
So baby come what may I won't lose faith no way,
It's more than I can bear so I'll....
Learn to love again (though it's hard I will believe)
I know the pain won't last,
I'll get there in the end (gonna make it through you'll see)
I'll mend this broken heart and....
Learn to love again (gotta get back on my feet)
I know the pain will pass,
And though I don't know, I'll get there in the end,
Somehow I'll learn to love again
I know this pain won't last forever,
I'm gonna put this broken heart back together,
Learn to love again (though it's hard I will believe)
I know the pain won't last,
I'll get there in the end (gonna make it through you'll see)
I'll mend this broken heart and....
Learn to love again (gotta get back on my feet)
I know the pain will pass,
And every now and then, I 'll think of you my friend,
I wasn't jealous before we met,
Now every woman I see is a potential threat,
I'm not possessive it isn't nice,
You heard me saying that smoking was my only vice,
But now it isn't true,
Now everything is new,
And all I've learned has over turned,
I beg of you,
Don't go wasting your emotion,
Lay all your love on me,
It was like shooting a sitting duck,
A little small talk a smile,
And baby I was hooked,
I still don't know what you've done to me,
A grown up man,
Should never fall so easily,
I feel a kind of fear,
When I don't have you near,
And satisfied,
I'd skip my pride,
I beg you dear,
Don't go wasting your emotion,
Lay all your love on me,
Don't go sharing your devotion,
Lay all your love on me,
I've had a few little love affairs,
They didn't last very long,
And they've been pretty scarce,
I used to think I was sensible,
It makes the truth even incomprehensible,
Cos eveerything is new,
And everything is you,
And all I've learned has overturned,
What can I do,
Don't go wasting your emotion,
Lay all your love on me,
Don't go sharing your devotion,
There was something in your voice,
That was telling me don't be too sure,
Arousing my suspicions,
I have never felt before,
I thought we had it made,
I thought you'd never go away.
But now you're suddenly like a stranger,
And you're leaving our love behind,
Of all the things I was ever planning for,
This was the last thing on my mind.
When I looked into your eyes,
There was something you weren't telling me,
But in my confusion I just couldn't see,
If there was any doubt,
I thought that we would work it out.
But now you're suddenly like a stranger,
And you're leaving our love behind,
Of all the things I was ever planning for,
This was the last thing on my mind.
There was something in your voice,

But now you're suddenly like a stranger,
And you're leaving our love behind,
Of all the things I was ever planning for,
Hurry up love don't keep me waiting
Just say the words I'm longing for
Right here and now this moments for the taking
You are the one that I adore
Here in your arms I'm drifting far away
So tell me know don't you hesitate
Is this love that we're feeling
Or are we dreaming
Do you feel the magic too
Make a dream come true
And if you feel the wonder that I do inside
Then I think it's love we're feeling tonight
In your eyes I see only heaven
With you my love I'll always stay
You're in my heart now and forever
I need to know that you feel the same
With you I think I know what love can mean
So hold me now until eternity
Is this love that we're feeling
Or are we dreaming
Do you feel the magic too
Make a dream come true
And if you feel the wonder that I do inside
Then I think it's love we're feeling tonight
And in your arms it feels like paradise
I see my dreams reflected in your eyes
Don't you tell me that I'm dreamin'
'cos I won't believe it
This is love we're feeling tonight
oh tonight
Is this love that we're feeling
Or are we dreaming
Do you feel the magic too
Make a dream come true
And if you feel the wonder that I do inside
Then I think it's love we're feeling
I think it's love we're feeling
Maybe I wanted to be free
I wanted time to be me
I tried to fly so high
But something changed inside of my heart
And now there's the sweetest pain
Oh I can't explain
It's time I asked
What am I running from and to
Ooh, I surrender baby
I need your love to save me
Now I know that I was wrong
I'm coming back 'cos love is strong
Yeah I surrender baby
So stop my heart from breaking
It's crazy but now that we're through
The only thing I want is you
So surrender too
Maybe we're only halves alone
And it's together we are whole
And now I've thought it through
Well it all works out it's you I love
Every single day I picture your face
But it's not enough
And I can't fight the truth no more
Ooh, I surrender baby
I need your love to save me
Now I know that I was wrong
I'm coming back 'cos love is strong
Yeah I surrender baby
So stop my heart from breaking
It's crazy but now that we're through
The only thing I want is you
So surrender too
Now I know what love is worth
And it's too much to lose
And I know there's nothing else
Nothing else but you
So surrender too
Ooh, I surrender baby
I need your love to save me
Now I know that I was wrong
I'm coming back 'cos love is strong
Yeah I surrender baby
So stop my heart from breaking
It's crazy but now that we're through
The only thing I want is you
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
I'd do anything to be your hero.
Maybe I'm never gonna change the world,
Or split the atom in two,
I know one man can't save the universe,
But girl if I could I'd do it for you.
I'd give you anything you asked for,
I'd be your knight in shining armour,
And just like superman.
I'd move heaven and earth,
In order to save you,
Sail seven seas,
To come to your rescue,
What would it take?
Just let me know,
I'd do anything to be your hero (hero).
I know I may not be invincible,
Or be the worlds strongest man (oh no),
But baby nothing seems impossible,
With you by my side,
I'll hold back the tide.
I'd be your night in shining armour,
The light to guide you into harbour,
And just like superman.
I'd move heaven and earth,
In order to save you,
Sail seven seas,
To come to your rescue,
What would it take?
Just let me know,
I'd do anything to be your hero (hero).
I'd fly through the air,
Protect you from danger,
Walk through fire (walk through fire),
To win back your favour,
What more would it take?
I have to know,
Cause I'd do anything to be your hero,
I'd do anything to be your hero.
Hero hero hero
Hero hero hero
Hero hero hero
I'd do anything to be your hero
I'd move heaven and earth (oh yeah),
In order to save you (yes I would),
Sail seven seas,
To come to your rescue,
(What would it take?) What would it take?
Just let me know,
I'd do anything to be your hero (hero).
I'd fly through the air,
Protect you from danger,
Walk through fire (walk through fire),
To win back your favour,
What more would it take?
Just let me know,
Cause I'd do anything to be your hero (hero),
Here I am just longing for you once again,
If your arms would only let me in,
You'd see the mess I'm in,
I have dreamed your heart will come and rescue me,
Oh baby set me free,
Only your love can win,
You are only a heartbeat away,
Baby and my love one day will find you it will remind you,
When it comes your way oh when it comes your way.
Here I am my heart in the palm of your hand,
Your every wish is my command,
Darling understand,
If I live a lie,
Then all my dreams are doomed to die,
Oh baby just let me try,
To have my heart's desire.
You are only a heartbeat away,
Baby and my love one day will find you it will remind you,
When it comes your way oh when it comes your way,
Ooh but my feelings are in vain,
Just like feelings they won't go away,
My love remains,
In my heart we'll always stay.
You are only a heartbeat away baby,
And my love one day will find you,
It will remind you,
When it comes your way oh when it comes your way,
You are always in my heart to stay baby,
Love comes once in a lifetime,
I think its high time,
Our hearts beat as one,
Love,all my love was yours,
Of this I was so sure,
I guess I never saw it coming baby,
But now I'm over the surprise,
I'm wearing this disguise,
So everyone can think I'm having fun baby,
The world only sees me smiling,
My pillow knows the truth at night,
'cause that's where I hide my sorrow,
And they call me happy go lucky,
They don't know my heart is dying inside,
A smile's a frown turned upside down,
I do my happy go lucky so well,
I'm even fooling myself
But now I've put it to the test,
I know it's for the best,
In fact it's good you walked out on me baby,
I, I've learned how to survive,
Without you in my life,
So why am I still talking 'bout you baby,
The world only sees me smiling,
My pillow knows the truth every night,
'Cause that's where I hide my sorrow,
And they call me happy go lucky,
They don't know my heart is dying inside,
A smile's a frown turned upside down,
I do my happy go lucky so well,
I'm even fooling myself
All my love yours,
I guess I was so sure,
When I see the morning light,
I put on this facade,
It's all I have to protect my pride,
It's all I've got, this smile is all I've got,
And they call me happy go lucky,
They don't know my heart is dying inside,
A smile's a frown turned upside down,
I do my happy go lucky so well,
On the phone for hours at a time,
Has your voice changed or is it a trick of the line?
All alone, I'm losing my mind,
Wonderin' what you'll be doin' tonight,
I still feel you hodin' me as clear as the day we said goodbye,
Words can change so easily when they cross a million miles,
Hand on your heart, heart on your sleeve,
Are you tellin' me,
When we're apart you still believe,
We are meant to be?
Even if you say the words you know I long to hear,
I wanna be sure so tell me once more,
Hand on your heart
Losin' sleep, can't take anymore,
Tired of wonderin' if you really miss me at all,
I just need to be reassured,
If you love me what you waitin' for?
I still feel you holdin' me as clear as the day we said goodbye,
Memories fade so easily, but am I still in yours like you're in mine?
You know that's all I need, baby tell me honestly....
Hand on your heart, heart on your sleeve,
Are you tellin' me,
When we're apart you still believe,
We are meant to be?
Even if you say the words you know I long to hear,
I wanna be sure so tell me once more,
Hand on your heart
I still feel you holdin' me, tellin'me love will always be....
Don't know if I can wait,
Until I see your face,
I need you to tell me,
Hand on your heart, heart on your sleeve,
Are you tellin' me,
When we're apart you still believe,
We are meant to be?
Even if you say the words you know I long to hear,
I wanna be sure so tell me once more,
Into each life some rain must fall
I didn't know I would catch it all
The clear skies have gone
And you with them too
It's not the same now without you
I used to say you're so beautiful
But it didn't change a thing at all
There's nowhere to run
Got nowhere to hide
I can't forget you and I've tried, but...
I'm a deeper shade of blue
And there's nothing I can do
You're so far, far away
Yeah, I'm a darker shade of me
And I just can't be free
You're so far, far away
You're so far away
Into each life some sun must shine
Well someone else must be getting mine
The days are so empty
Night's are so long
Awaking to find again that you've gone
I used to say you were wonderful
Now I just wonder where you are
It's easy to say memories fade
But I'm still missing you
Nothing's changed ... and
I'm a deeper shade of blue
And there's nothing I can do
You're so far, far away
Yeah, I'm a darker shade of me
And I just can't be free
You're so far, far away
You're so far away
Summer is over
And all we are is apart
The nights are so cold now
Without you in my heart
I'm a deeper shade of blue
And there's nothing I can do
You're so far, far away
Yeah, I'm a darker shade of me
And I just can't be free
You're so far, far away
You took a mystery
And made me want it
You got a pedestal
And put me on it
You made me love you
Out of feeling nothing
Something that you do, oh
And I was there not
Dancing with anyone
You took a little then
You took me over
You set your mark on
Stealing my heart away
Crying trying
Anything for you
I'm in the middle of
A chain reaction
(Chain reaction)
You give me all the
After midnight action
(Don't pass me by)
I wanna get you
Where I can let you
Make all that love to me
I'm on a journey
For the inspiration
(Inspiration)
To anywhere and
There ain't no salvation
(Don't make me cry)
I need you to get me
Nearer to you
So you can set me free
We talk about love, love, love
We talk about love
We talk about love, love, love
We talk about love
You make me tremble
When your hand moves lower
(When you're in love)
You taste a little
Then you follow slower
(When you're in love)
Nature has a way
Of yielding treasure
Pleasure made for you
You gotta plan your future
Is on the run
Shine a light for
The whole world over
You never find your love
If you hide away
Crying dying
All you gotta do is
Get in the middle of
A chain reaction
(Chain reaction)
You get a medal when
You're lost in action
(Don't pass me by)
I wanna get your love
All ready for the
Sweet sensation
Instant radiation
You let me hold you
For the first explosion
(First explosion)
We get a picture of
Our love in motion
(Don't make me cry)
My arms will cover my lips
Will smother you
(Sooner or later)
With no more left to say
We talk about love, love, love
We talk about love
You let me hold you
For the first explosion
My arms will cover you
All you gotta do is
Get in the middle of
A chain reaction
(Chain reaction)
You get a medal when
You're lost in action
(Don't pass me by)
I wanna get your love
All ready for the
Sweet sensation
Instant radiation
You let me hold you
For the first explosion
(First explosion)
We get a picture of
Our love in motion
(Don't make me cry)
My arms will cover my lips
Will smother you
(Sooner or later)
With no more left to say
All you gotta do is
Get in the middle of
A chain reaction
(Chain reaction)
You get a medal when
You're lost in action
(Don't pass me by)
I wanna get your love
All ready for the
Sweet sensation
Instant radiation
You let me hold you
For the first explosion
(First explosion)
We get a picture of
Our love in motion
(Don't make me cry)
My arms will cover my lips
Will smother you
(Sooner or later)
I feel so unsure,
As I take your hand,
And lead you to the dance floor,
As the music dies,
Something in your eyes,
Calls to mind a silver screen,
And all its sad goodbyes,
I'm never gonna dance again,
Guilty feet have got no rhythm,
Though it's easy to pretend,
I know you're not a fool,
I should have known better than to cheat a friend,
And waste a chance that I'd been given,
So I'm never gonna dance again,
The way I danced with you,
Time can never mend,
The careless whisper of a good friend,
To the heart and mind,
Ignorance is kind,
There's no comfort in the truth,
Pain is all you'll find,
I'm never gonna dance again,
Guilty feet have got no rhythm,
Though it's easy to pretend,
I know you're not a fool,
I should have known better than to cheat a friend,
And waste a chance that I'd been given,
So I'm never gonna dance again,
The way I danced with you,
Tonight the music seems so loud,
I wish that we could loose this crowd,
Maybe it's better this way,
We'd hurt each other with the things we want to say,
We could have been so good together,
We could have lived this dance forever,
But now who's gonna dance with me,
Please stay,
I'm never gonna dance again,
Guilty feet have got no rhythm,
Though it's easy to pretend,
I know you're not a fool,
I should have known better than to cheat a friend,
And waste a chance that I'd been given,
So I'm never gonna dance again,
The way I danced with you,
Now that you've gone,
Now that you've gone,
Now that you've gone
Was what I did so wrong,
So wrong that you had to leave me alone,
I'm never gonna dance again,
Guilty feet have got no rhythm,
Though it's easy to pretend,
I know you're not a fool,
I should have known better than to cheat a friend,
And waste a chance that I'd been given,
So I'm never gonna dance again,
I see the way you act like you're nonchalant
But theres no way to hide
Whats in your eyes whats going on
I'm not I'magining the message coming through
So I'll just say the way I feel
I know you feel it too
Think I know the reason that you're holding back
don't want me to see you over react
I'm the kind who has to have it rehearsed
I'm making my move I'll go first
I get bbbuzzz off you
Just becccause I do
I'm saying it just the way it is
Cause it's everywhere in this room
I get a bbbuzzz all night
And you're making me crazy inside
The secrets out and there aint no doubt
I wanna give this bbbuzzz right back to you
I guess I could pretend as if I didnt care
it's just a game tp play
To walk away and leave you there
I want you next to me so I'll just speak the truth
it's not so hard to say
Come on admit it you want it too
Think I know the reason that you're holding back
don't want me to see you over react
I'm the kind who has to have it rehearsed
I'm making my move I'll go first
I get bbbuzzz off you
Just becccause I do
I'm saying it just the way it is
Cause it's everywhere in this room
I get a bbbuzzz all night
And you're making me crazy inside
The secrets out and there aint no doubt
I wanna give this bbbuzzz right back to you
You know it's true I get electric when I feel everything yo dddo
I know you know it's what I want what I need from yyyou
Id only be a liar if I said I didnt get a rush
GI'mme a shot I know you're hot I know I got bbbuzzz
I get bbbuzzz off you
Just becccause I do
I'm saying it just the way it is
Cause it's everywhere in this room
I get a bbbuzzz all night
And you're making me crazy inside
The secrets out and there aint no doubt
i want to live my life, live it my own way over throw the shame, the shame you dealt brought me to my knees always trying to please you instead of living for me, you say you say you know whats best for me time change the time has come for me to change and you controlled my dreams, i never asked you and i never agreed to your requests goal destinies i abandoned you and now im free, now i, i live my life live it my own way forget yesterday no expectations just my ambitions identity the choice is up to me
I know that you're removed
It seems that you're so busy
We barely recognize you here
Do you recognize me?
Are you walking away?
Or have you gone?
Are they just these little steps you're taking?
Only life you're taking
My world you're breaking
Only God forsaken
My heart you're raping
My life you're shaking
It's just that you're removed
You don't look me in the eye now
It's only 5 a.m. my dear
Do you want to lie now?
Is she seventeen?
Or 21?
Are they just these little steps you're taking?
Only lives you're raping
Only God forsaken
Only love you're taking
little love you're making
My heart you're breaking
Are you walking away
Or have you gone?
Are you leaving me?
Are these little steps you're taking?
My love you're breaking
Only lives you're shaking
My God you're hating
Only girls you're raping
My life you're taking
It's my little heart you're raping
It's your love you're faking
Life seems to be
A monotone groove
You dance with specific steps
Into a pre-defined direction.
Every point we reach
Is a point of no return.
Life is a one-way-road
Into a pre-defined direction.
Life is perpetual motion
Some steps in little circles
Some choose the spiral line
New old game with higher stakes.
We follow the gallery of preset
Consuming pictures about the norm
By stepping forward we regress
Instead of living real progress.
No more I'll take it to the place I hate
I'll never be the same erase
No fuck will ever take the fact that I was
Giving nothing more to life then
Stand I deliver every promise that I
Make my integrity will take me to the
Next time I stare death in the face
I stand alone I'll wait I'll stand in line
Against the wall of every corner that I take
We stand together everything is in our fate
No fuck will give me one more reason
And I'll take it to another level
Test my ability to stand out from the rest of
Every fucking wannabe that jumped on
All of them now changing for the
Next changing for the
Next wave fucking craze a fabricated waste of nothing
Steps on my own falls from above
Alone here I stand, alone here I am
The more steps you take
The more that you leave behind
The more steps you take
The more that you leave behind
So who is following you now?
So who is following you now?
The more steps you take
The more that you leave behind
The more steps you take
The more that you leave behind
The more steps you take
The more that you leave behind
The more steps you take
The more that you leave behind
So who is following you now?
So who is following you now?
Whoa oh oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh oh
Following you now
Whoa oh oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh oh
Verse 1:
Help me find a way
Or a good reason to get up out of this bed
It seems no matter what I do or how much I make
It's never good enough.
To face the same problems, the same debts,
Sometimes even adds more stress.
And I don't know who claimed this a simple life
Try to walk in my shoes, see through my eyes.
People just don't seem real
Cause no matter what I do or how much I
Make it's never good enough.
Pre-Chorus:
Working takes up so much time
It eats your life away
It's hard to hold on to what I
Have cause I keep finding myself
Chorus:
Five steps forward
Ten steps back
Tryin' to get ahead
But keep fallin' off track.
Running around
And around again
(Repeat chorus)
Verse 2:
To pickup where you left off
Is all you have to look forward
To each day
How do you get ahead
When you're behind and the hole
You've dug gets deeper
Just to quit tryin is such a cop out
I couldn't cheat myself
And I don't Who claimed this a simple life
All the money I make
Barely gets me by but I keep hanging on
Cause no matter what I do or how much I
Make it's never good enough
Pre-Chorus:
Working takes up so much time
It eats your life away
It's hard to hold on to what I
Have cause I keep finding myself
Chorus:
Five steps forward
Ten steps back
Tryin' to get ahead
But keep fallin' off track.
Running around
And around again
(Repeat chorus)
Bridge: All the money I make
Barely gets me by. All the money
I make is never good enough.
Pre-Chorus:
Working takes up so much time
It eats your life away
It's hard to hold on to what I
Have cause I keep finding myself
Chorus:
Five steps forward
Ten steps back
Tryin' to get ahead
But keep fallin' off track.
Running around
And around again
I feel the same: drawn out, dried, hurt by what you say.
Nice clothes. Your mind is all shadows.
Insane, see the light; step off;
Don't you know that those cold hard lies that you're telling come back?
Look at me. I won't stand for another.
Now, what you're seeing is a man taken by what he needs.
So hard you have it when you're down.
Here's the day, dreaming of another fate.
So hard you have it--tell me.
Rest these eyes of mine there tired
From watching loved ones break a part
I tried to count the blessings but they'll never see this place anyways
Burn these walls if that's the only way to change
I'll pray for days if you think it will help at all
Oh why cant we? Find the time in streets for love
We're in the race of getting older
And who needs dimes if they get dollars
I tried to keep my head high but I always feel so poor anyways
Burn these walls if that's the only way to change
I'll pray for days if you think it will help at all
Look through the window
And take a momenth to breath
The words in the air
Are trying to explain
That the shadow and the light
Won't unite until you decide
It won't be this day
It won't be this way...
(And with no choice left, I will take a
Breath and leave all those memories under
The water...)
(Why do you have to leave now? I am not ready
For this burden, I am not ready for this. This
Is just a dream, This is not the end)
(Finally the truth, this is the moment
I've been waiting for, you thought I was
Drowned... dead, but everything will change
From now on)
(I don't know who you are anymore, I just
Don't know who you are! )
(I know the dark darkens your sun
And in the dark everyone loses control
That demons from yesterday demand their
Way today, don't be afraid, this is your life...
Live! )
There was a time you had my heart
And the days never ended
This is the reason why I've been absent
For too long
There was a time you had my heart
And it's time for me to move on
There is no turning back cause
This is who you are... this is who you are... now
