(D. Hall/S. Allen)
I was lying there
Lying on the beach
I dreamed you were there
Feel the heat
The sun and the waves
When you touch my hand
We were on a desert island
And I had a dream
I was swept away
You and I are on an island
Where I thought the storm would never end
I saw your light on the horizon
And I knew that I was blown away again
No it doesn't matter
Yeah, it doesn't matter
'Cause nothing lasts forever
'Cause nothing last forever
No it doesn't matter
No it doesn't matter
'Cause nothing lasts forever
Nothing last forever
I was swept away
I was swept away
I was swept away with you
I was swept away
I was swept away
I was swept away with you
The rise and fall is endless
The risk you run of being lost in blue
You caught my drift while I was restless
When the current flows
I'm gonna flow with you
No it doesn't matter
Yeah, it doesn't matter
'Cause nothing last forever
Nothing last forever
No it doesn't matter
No it doesn't matter
'Cause nothing last forever
Nothing last forever
I was swept away
I was swept away
I was swept away with you
I was swept away
I was swept away
I was swept away with you
For a day
Or maybe for a lifetime
Break away
Is he throwing me a lifeline
If I say
That this will be the last time
Swept away
Will it end with you?
I was swept away
Swept away
Swept away
No it won't, no it won't
No it doesn't matter
Nothing last forever
Much ado is all I see
And feel like it's surrounding me
The crowd intrudes all day
'Til I'm finally swept away
I'm finally swept away
I'm finally swept away
I'm finally swept away
Soft wind blowing
Her hair into my face
Eyes still showing
Look at shadows
Dancing on the beach
Still horizons
All within our reach
Sun still glowing
Underneath the sea
Love just growing
One night, and I'm hooked on you
One kiss, and there's nothing I can do
First love, she had to be so far away
First time, I've been swept away
Spanish islands
Dot the better dreams
Turquoise waters
Throw me back again
When I'm dreaming
Something takes me there.
She's there waiting.
One night, yea, and I'm hooked on you
Just one kiss, and there's nothing I can do
First love, and she just had to be so far away
Oh first time, I've been swept away
I've been swept away.
I've been swept away.
I've been swept away.
Love worth keeping
Takes you by surprise
Untold promises
Cost the same
I know better
Still, I pay the price
She's there waiting.
One night, oh yea, and I'm hooked on you
Just one kiss, and there's nothing I can do
First love, she had to be so far away
Just one time, I've been swept away, yea.
Oh, yea!
I've been swept away, yea.
I've been swept away, yea.

Rock Is In My Blood
Look at me, it's hard to find
I know you can see what's on my mind.
When my heart beats it's two and four
It's getting hard to leave, I keep wanting more.
Baby, 'cause
Rock is in my blood.
Baby, rock is in my soul
And my heart's on fire, baby.
It comforts me, makes me high
And what touches me I can't deny
You can take me so far from here
But it still remains in my ears.
Baby, 'cause
Rock is in my blood.
And, it's pumpin', pumpin', pumpin'
Baby, rock is in my soul
And my heart's on fire, baby.
Stay with me, I need you so
Don't you ever leave, baby, please don't go
'Cause there's something here in all this confusion
Maybe I'll give to you a blood transfusion
Baby, 'cause
Rock it's in my blood.
Pumpin' baby, baby, baby,
Rock it's in my soul, yea
Rock is in my blood, oh,
Baby, rock, oh yea, is in my soul
Fire!
MC's who slept for days, must be swept away
The rhythm just sways, and like a sorceress I slays
foes, and ri-vals, who wanna come
this way, they, better pay attention
or a penchant not to mention suspension
from the microphone, plus the tension
Trey-eight oh's will vacate those
if there's drama with my henchmen
So lamp to my man Mussolini
Go get your whole staff, call the calf
cause half-and-half's couldn't cream me
The lyrics make your head knock
Malik B and BlackThought, the dreadlock
Mannn, transss-gressin
you'll catch lead I, crushin
poundin on the drums like King Kong
We can ring your bellll, ding-dong!
I styles with my vocab-ulary
The Roots the one to call your ultra adversary
Now you're all desert cause I'ma serv ya like a tray
to meet your doom Malik's the boom so you get swept away
MC's who slept for days, must be swept away
Yo, hello everybody do I need introduct'
I be the mic mercenary very un.. clear
to your ear the exquisite pattern that you hear
It's known to be Black Butta Baby
Crazy cardiac my attack on any fat rhythm
that I capture kid I snatch the mic from tykes
while I proceed.. and continue.. to tend to
business, cause this is, how I do
I'm insane, and go against the grain like freight
Never on no nigga dick, cause I'm just too hip
Plus I rest where niggaz pack and never act
other than ill, shit is real in Phy-double
So if you want trouble let's stomp
My mission is to flip on comp
You might aspire to be flyer than I, you must pay
your dues while I bruise niggaz new for the day
shall be swept away
MC's who slept for days, must be swept away
MC's who slept for days, must be... I'm on a mission
MC's who slept for days, must be swept away (4X)

.....: There's somethin goin on :..... (refrain repeats)
I am waiting with a ticket with a carry-on
People everywhere on their way, at a run
Then I see you from a distance
Light years later at fate's insistence
Old wounds, sad scenes, love lost, bad dreams
Heartache, old scars, old walls, these are
Swept away, swept away, swept away
You are standing by the pay phones, by the stairs
I walk straight into your arms and you hold me there
I am falling slowly backwards
Right into your famous last words
Old wounds, sad scenes, love lost, bad dreams
Heartache, old scars, old walls, these are
Swept away, swept away, swept away
All this ancient history, every unsolved mystery
Years I've carried with me, vanish when you kiss me
Old wounds, sad scenes, love lost, bad dreams
Heartache, old scars, old walls, these are
Well you send my life a whirling
Darling when you're twirling
On the floor
Who cares about tomorrow?
What more is tomorrow?
Than another day.
When you swept me away
Yeah you swept me away
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
I see the end of the rainbow
But what more is a rainbow
Than colors out of reach
If you come down to my window
And I climb out my window
Then we'll get out of reach
Then you swept me away
Yeah you swept me away
You said with such honest feeling
But what'd you really mean
When you said that I'm your man
Well how my darling can it be
When you have never seen me
And you never will again
That you swept me away
Yeah you swept me away
Well life is ever changing
But I will always find a constant
And comfort in your love
With your heart my soul is bound
And as we dance I know
That heaven will be found
Well you send my life a whirling
Darling when you're twirling
On the floor
And who cares about tomorrow?
Girl, what more is tomorrow?
Than another day.
When you swept me away
Yeah you swept me away
I'm swept away
Yes, I'm off the ground flying
Swept away
Yesterday's all but gone
Like a hurricane
You are tossing me 'round
And I'm swept away
And today you're the one
For society
Shimmy, shimmy, shimmy
And you go, oh, no
For propriety
Shimmy, shimmy, shimmy
And you go, no, no
But now I'm swept away
Yes, I'm past the sound barrier
Swept away
Yesterday's all but done
Like a Novocain shooting
Up through my arms faster
Swept away
And today you're the one
For society
Shimmy, shimmy, shimmy
And you go, oh, no
For propriety
Shimmy, shimmy, shimmy
And you go, no, no
But now I'm swept away
Yes, I'm past the sound barrier
Swept away
Yesterday's all but done
Like election day you are
Robbing me blind mister
Swept away
In a temporary lapse of sanity
You've been subdued by your own false sense of security
You're a prisoner of your own privilege
You fail to see the bars for what they are
NOW YOU'VE BEEN SUBDUED
You live your life exactly how they tell it
You agree no matter how they sell it
An unconscious effort to remain subdued
NOW YOU'VE BEEN SUBDUED
Complain about your life as you waste away
Never flying free from that golden cage
You're a prisoner of your own privilege
You fail to see the bars for what they are, come on
In a temporary lapse of sanity
You've been subdued by your own false sense of security
You're a prisoner of your own privilege
You fail to see the bars for what they are
NOW YOU'VE BEEN SUBDUED
You live your life exactly how they tell it
You agree no matter how they sell it
An unconscious effort to remain subdued
NOW YOU'VE BEEN SUBDUED
Complain about your life as you waste away
Never flying free from that golden cage
You're a prisoner of your own privilege
The evil fell from your pretty mouth, wrapped in your classic voice
Angelic in your syntax, demonic in your motive
Your pretty eyes don't know that
The water flowing from this well isn't fresh
Demolish all that sets you up against your rising up
Confessing all that's broken and watch the healing come
Spread out your open hands, admit you've held them shut
Turn all the way around, be swept away by this
Time for surrender
Spread out your open hands and he will raise you up
Confessing all that's broken and watch the healing come
Spread out your open hands, admit you've held them shut
Be swept away by this
Your clothes are smooth and spotless, the air is putrid sewage down
Wind of your pressed church clothes
Your eyes are black and empty, your deeds are just for showing
How big and bright your fake smile glows
I see you moving and their getting scared
Their eyes are focusing on something else
Your staring at me and I stare at you
I rage against everything that you do
See them surrender
Spread out your open hands and he will raise you up
Confessing all that's broken, look at the healing come
Spread out your open hands, admit you've held them shut
Be swept away by this
I see you moving and they're getting scared
Their eyes are focusing on something else
You're staring at me and I stare at you
I rage against everything that you do
So get this hell out, get this hell out of my way
There's nothing more that you can say
So get this hell out, get this hell out of my way
Get this hell out, get this hell out of my way
We spread our open hands and he is rising up
Repairing all that's broken, look at the healing come
We spread our open hands, forgiveness holds them up
I never had anything happen so fast
Took one look and I shattered like glass
I guess I let it show cos your smile told me you know
That you're everything I ever wanted at once
There's no holding this heart when it knows what it wants
And I never wanted anything more than to know you
I was swept away
No-one in the world but you and I
Gotta find a way to make you feel the way that I do
I was swept away
Without a warning like night when the morning begins the day
I was swept away
And so it begins, this journey of love
The summer wind carries us to places all our own
The words of a look, the language of touch
The way that you want me means so much
And I never wanted anything more than to love you
I am swept away
No-one in the world but you and I
gotta find a way to make you feel the way that I do
I am swept away
Without a warning like night when the morning begins the day
I was swept away, away
Seeing my tomorrow's in your eyes
I was swept away
Ooh, I hope I wake up soon
Ooh, I’m a victim of that crazy moon
The very first time you said my name
I knew it would never sound the same
Something about me has changed forever
Can't you see that I’m swept away
No-one in the world but you and I
Gotta find a way to make you feel the way that I do
I am swept away
Without a warning, like night when the morning begins the day
I was swept away, away
Seeing my tomorrow's in your eyes
Gotta find a way to make you feel the way that I do
I was swept away
Without a warning, like night when the morning begins the day
I was swept away
We were swept away
Dreaming of you
(Swept Away)
"Paolo Santos"
I never had anything happen so fast

And I never wanted anything more than to know you

No one in the world but you and I
Gotta find a way to make you feel the way that I do

No one in the world but you and I

Without a warning
Like night when the morning begins the day
I was swept away
Away - seeing my tomorrows in your eyes
I was swept away
I hope I wake up soon
I'm a victim of that crazy moon
The very first time you said my name
I knew it would never sound the same
Something about me is changed forever
Can't you see that I'm swept away
No one in the world but you and I

We were swept away
He resides in Riverside
His laboratory is his pride & joy
Talks a lot about nothing much
Really loves to main line & he does
Lord yes he does
Speed Teeth
It don't go up his nose
Where does it go?
Seputih hati ini
Semurni cinta ini
Mekar mewangi kasih
Ku harapkan balasmu
Hulur tangan peluk diriku
Oh kekasih dekaplah aku
(Korus)
Perasaan cinta ku ini
Tak bisa ku bendung lagi
Di manakah waktu kan berkata
Menyetujui cinta ini
Merpati putih saksi kita
Dalam malam kita berjanji
Apa yang kan menghalangi
Tetap cinta ini kan terjalin
Seputih hati ini
.
Semurni cinta ini
Ku harapkan balasmu
Hulur tangan peluk diriku
I get swept away
When I think of you
Take me to that place
Where it's control I lose
I'm soothed by you, you take it all away
I lose to you, surrendered at the start of the game
I'll never deceive
I'm right here, I always been
Hide away, I'll hide away with you
I'll let the world just slip away
And I'm left with you
Your little masquerade, I'm sure of the mood
The moments we share
Always end too soon
Part of you stays a while
Even when you're far away
You had to have it, you could not wait
Now it’s a habit and a tough one to break
Power and passion, fashion and fame
(You were out to get it)
Now you think you might have made a mistake (
You may have reached your limit)
Now you’re up to your neck in it
In so deep you might be swept away
How did it happen, where did you stray?
Limited vision, or twist of fate?
You were the fastest in this rat race
(You set out to win it)
Now too much looks like too little too late
(Is this all there is to it?)
Now you say you see right through it
Stepped in skin deep then got swept away
Maybe it's tragic, maybe heartache
Blackened the magic money can make
It’s an addiction few ever shake
(And til you get through it)
You think love is just some motion to make
Now you see what love means to it
Don’t look back you just got swept away
Swept away
Swept away
Swept away
Swept away
Swept away
Ooh yeah
We spent all night down by the riverside
Laughin' at nothin' and talking too much
And the moonlight was so bright in your eyes
Before I knew it, I was fallin' in love
It was too cold to swim, oh, so we just lay there
On the bank 'til the break of day
And though we never went in the water
Oh darling, we were swept away
And the river rolled
And the night got cold
But you held me close
And you warmed my soul
And we spent all night down by the riverside
Wonderin' how it happened so fast
And it sure did take us by surprise
When that morning sun it came up at last
It was too cold to swim, oh, so we just lay there
On the bank 'til the break of day
And though we never went in the water
Deep down, we were swept away
And the river rolled
And the night got cold
But you held me closed
And you warmed my soul
And we spent all night down by the riverside
Ooh baby
It was too cold to swim, so we just lay there
On the bank 'til the break of day
And though we never went in the water
Oh darling, we were swept away
Though we never went in the water
We were swept away
Ooh, we were swept away
Swept away, swept away
We were swept, swept away
We were swept
We were swept away
I never had anything happen so fast
I took one look and I shattered like glass
I guess I let it show ’cause your smile told me you knew
That you’re everything I ever wanted at once
There’s no holding this heart when it knows what it wants
And I never wanted anything more than to know you
I was swept away
No one in the world but you and I
Gotta find a way to make you feel the way that I do
I was swept away
Without a warning
Like night when the morning begins the day
I was swept away
And so it begins
This journey of love
The summer wind carries us to places all our own

Seeing my tomorrows in your eyes
I was swept away
I hope I wake up soon
I’m a victim of that crazy moon
The very first time you said my name
I knew it would never sound the same
Je me sens, dans tes bras, si petite
Si petite, aupr?s de toi
Que tu peux, quand mon coeur bat trop vite
Le briser entre tes doigts
Quand tu vois qu'une peine m'agite
Tu me berces, doucement
Je me fais, dans tes bras, si petite
Si petite
? mon amant !
Je suis venue un beau jour, dans ta vie
Tout simplement
Et tu fis na?tre en mon ?me ravie
L'enchantement
Ce que tu veux, je le fais, sans contrainte
Sans murmurer
Car je ne puis, toujours, sous ton ?treinte
Que t'adorer !
J'ai beau savoir, mon tr?sor, que tu m'aimes
De tout ton coeur
Il est des soirs o? je doute quand m?me
O? j'ai bien peur
Je crains toujours qu'un autre amour t'emporte
Et sans tarder
Je me dis tout bas: “Serai-je assez forte
Was there a first time you can remember the structure of life
It fell into chaos and standing alone you were face to face with uncertainty
Your bare feet sticking to the cold floor
The shrill raised voices echoing off rusted tin
Escalating through those burdened walls
That was the last time you felt at home
On a cold night when sound sleep and fair dreams should have kept you
Warm in your bed you were standing restless
Staring into your own eyes that for the first time seemed empty and
Losing light with every second
Who is this young man and will he ever understand
Exactly why his world was changed that night
Or how do you come back from this
Where everything seems strangely distorted and so far away from love
Who is this young man and will he ever understand
One night this night
Was it the night that you were swept away
To this deep dark place and
Now how will you get back
I feel so far from everything,
I try to find a silver lighting and everything around me fades;
And dreams of you have turned to grey.
I tried to keep a simple faith that love will find me here someday.
And all the lines that we have made, burned in time and fade away.
And I'm losing hope to much this days
And in your love I'm swept away
Can you put me in and keep me safe?
Can you put me in and keep me safe
I dreamed of you among the waves
And we were sailing to our place
And when I awoke you went away
I see how fast this dreams can change
And I'm losing hope to much this days
And in your love I'm swept away
Can you put me in and keep me safe?
Can you put me in and keep me safe
And I'm losing hope to much this days
And in your love I'm swept away
Can you put me in and keep me safe?
Can you put me in and keep me safe
Put me in and keep me, keep me, keep me safe
Put me in and keep me, keep me, keep me safe
Put me in and keep me, keep me, keep me safe
Put me in and keep me, keep me, keep me safe
Put me in and keep me safe
In your love I'm swept away
In your love, in your love
In your love I'm swept away
