Harrods is an upmarket department store located in Brompton Road in Brompton, in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, London. The Harrods brand also applies to other enterprises undertaken by the Harrods group of companies including Harrods Bank, Harrods Estates, Harrods Aviation and Air Harrods, and to Harrods Buenos Aires, sold by Harrods in 1922 and closed as of 2011[update], with plans announced to reopen in 2013.
The store occupies a 5-acre (20,000 m2) site and has over one million square feet (90,000 m2) of selling space in over 330 departments. The UK's second-biggest shop, Oxford Street's Selfridges, is a little over half the size with 540,000 square feet (50,000 m2) of selling space.
The Harrods motto is Omnia Omnibus Ubique—All Things for All People, Everywhere. Several of its departments, including the seasonal Christmas department and the Food Hall, are world famous.
Throughout its history, the store has had a total of five owners. On 8 May 2010, Mohamed Al-Fayed sold the store to Qatar Holdings for £1.5 billion.
Richard John Parfitt, OBE (born 12 October 1948) is best known for being a singer and the rhythm guitarist in the English rock band Status Quo.
Born in Woking, Surrey, Parfitt attended Goldsworth School, Woking and first met band member Francis Rossi in 1965 in Butlin's Minehead whilst he was playing as Ricky Harrison in a musical trio called 'The Highlights'.[citation needed] Rossi was playing with the Spectres (forerunner of Status Quo) at the time and Parfitt was sufficiently impressed to approach him with a view to working together. Nothing came of the meeting until 1967 when Parfitt joined Rossi, Alan Lancaster, John Coghlan and Roy Lynes to form the classic Quo lineup.
Parfitt has been a continuous member of the group, and has penned some of their greatest hits, sometimes in collaboration with the group's keyboard player Andy Bown, among them "Whatever You Want", "Again and Again", and "Rain". He recorded a solo album in 1985, but it was never released. Among musicians on the record were bassist John Edwards and drummer Jeff Rich, formerly with the Climax Blues Band and Judie Tzuke. He has earned the nickname 'The WOMORR' (The Wild Old Man of Rock 'n' Roll). Parfitt is known for his trademark white Fender Telecaster – a 1965 model.
Mohamed Abdel Moneim Al-Fayed (Arabic: محمد عبد المنعم الفايد, Muḥammad ʿAbd al-Munʻim al-Fāyad; born 27 January 1933) is an Egyptian businessman. Amongst his business interests are ownership of the English Premiership football team Fulham Football Club, Hôtel Ritz Paris and formerly Harrods Department Store, Knightsbridge. Fayed has three siblings: Ali, Salah, and Safia; and married Finnish socialite and former model Heini Wathén in 1985, with whom he had four children: Jasmine, Karim, Camilla, and Omar; and three grandchildren. Fayed had been linked to two celebrities, Diana, Princess of Wales and Michael Jackson. Fayed's son, Dodi, from his first marriage to Samira Khashoggi, died in a car crash in the Pont de l'Alma tunnel in Paris along with Diana and driver Henri Paul on 31 August 1997. Fayed's wealth is estimated at $1.2 billion, making him the 993rd richest person in the world.
Born in Bakos (باكوس), Alexandria, Egypt, as the eldest son of an Egyptian primary school teacher, Fayed's first entrepreneurial venture began at school where he sold homemade lemonade. He was married for two years, from 1954 to 1956, to Samira Kashoggi.
Piers Stefan Pughe-Morgan (born Piers Stefan O'Meara; 30 March 1965), known professionally as Piers Morgan, is a British journalist and television presenter. He is editorial director of First News, a national newspaper for children.
Morgan branched into television mainly as a presenter, but has become best known as a judge or contestant in reality television programmes. In the UK, he was a judge on Britain's Got Talent. Morgan is best known in the United States as a judge on the show America's Got Talent, and as the winner of The Celebrity Apprentice. On 17 January 2011, he began hosting Piers Morgan Tonight for CNN in the timeslot previously occupied by Larry King Live after the retirement of host Larry King.

Morgan studied Journalism at Harlow College. After a brief career at Lloyds of London, he joined the Surrey and South London Newspaper Group in 1985, where he worked as a reporter on the South London News, and the Streatham and Tooting News. Morgan was recruited (he says headhunted by editor Kelvin MacKenzie) to join The Sun newspaper, specifically to work on the Bizarre column.

Born and raised in New York City, she primarily studied at the Convent of the Sacred Heart and briefly attended New York University's Tisch School of the Arts before withdrawing to focus on her musical career. She began performing in the rock music scene of Manhattan's Lower East Side, and was signed with Streamline Records by the end of 2007. During her employment as a songwriter for the record company, her vocal abilities captured the attention of recording artist Akon, who signed her to his label Kon Live Distribution.
Lady Gaga came to prominence as a recording artist following the release of her debut album The Fame (2008), which was a critical and commercial success that topped charts around the world and included the international number-one singles "Just Dance" and "Poker Face". After embarking on the The Fame Ball Tour, she followed the album with The Fame Monster (2009), which spawned the worldwide hit singles "Bad Romance", "Telephone" and "Alejandro". The album's success allowed her to embark on the eighteen-month long Monster Ball Tour, which later became one of the highest-grossing concert tours of all time. Her most recent album Born This Way (2011) topped the charts of most major markets and generated more international chart-topping singles, including "Born This Way", "Judas" and "The Edge of Glory". Besides her musical career, she involves herself with humanitarian causes and LGBT activism.
On a bridge across the Severn on a Saturday night
Susie meets the man of her dreams
He says that he got in trouble and if she doesn't mind
He doesn't want the company
But there's something in the air, they share a look in silence
And everything is understood
Susie grabs her man and puts a grip on his hand
As the rain puts a tear in his eye
She says, "Don't let go
Never give up, it's such a wonderful life
Don't let go
Never give up, it's such a wonderful life"
Driving through the city to the Temple Station
Cries into the leather seat
And Susie knows the baby was a family man
But the world has got him down on his knees
So she throws him at the wall and kisses burn like fire
And suddenly he starts to believe
He takes her in his arms and he doesn't know why
But he thinks that he begins to see
She says, "Don't let go
Never give up, it's such a wonderful life
Don't let go
Never give up, it's such a wonderful life"
Don't let go
Never give up, it's such a wonderful life
Don't let go
Never give up, it's such a wonderful life
She says, "Don't let go
Never give up, it's such a wonderful life
Don't let go
Never give up, it's such a wonderful life"
Don't let go
Don't let go
Don't let go
Don't let go
Don't let go
Don't let go
Don't let go
Never give up, it's such a wonderful life
Don't let go
Never give up, it's such a wonderful life
Don't let go
Never give up, it's such a wonderful life
Don't let go
Never give up, it's such a wonderful life
She says, "Don't let go
Never give up
Don't let go
Never give up, it's such a wonderful life
Don't let go
Wonderful life, wonderful, wonderful life
Don't let go
Wonderful life, wonderful, wonderful life
Don't let go
Innocent they swim
I tell them no.
They just dive right in
But do they know?
It's a long way down
When you're alone.
And there's no air or sound
Down below the surface.
There's something in the water
I do not feel safe!
It always feels like torture
To be this close!
I wish that I was stronger
I'd separate the waves!
Not just let the water
Take me away!
There was a time I'd dip my feet
And it would roll off my skin.
Now every time I get close to the edge
I'm scared of falling in.
'Cause I don't want to be stranded again
On my own.
When the tide comes in
And pulls me below the surface.
There's something in the water
I do not feel safe!
It always feels like torture
To be this close!
I wish that I was stronger
I'd separate the waves!
Not just let the water
I think we'll never change
and our hearts will always separate.
Forget about you
I'll forget about you.
The things we never say
Are better often left alone.
Forget about you
I'll forget about this time.
But it's the same old situation
We made it through this far.
We watched the rockets kiss the sky.
I saw the flames burn out in your eyes.
Nothing that I do
Will ever be enough for you
Whatever I do, whatever I do.
Take me as I am
I'll never be the other man.
Forget about you
I'll forget about this time.
So won't you save this conversation
And find a better time?
Don't you ever understand
That if it hurts I'll do whatever I can?
And if it's set in motion
I'll watch it all pass by.
And leave the rest unspoken
I'll never change my mind.
Leave it unspoken, leave it unspoken,
Leave it unspoken, leave it unspoken now. (x4)
So just let me go
I won't change my mind.
I'd rather be lonely
Than be by your side.
and nothing you say
Could save us this time.
I'd rather be lonely.
I don't own any rights to this song.

If the band or the label (RCA) ask me to remove the
film,
There are times when we question the things we know
Never thought that the cracks will begin to show
We both know love is not that easy
I wish I'd known that it would be this hard to be alone.
Please, come home!
Loveless nights, they seem so long
I know that I'll hold you someday.
But till you come back where you belong
It's just another lonely Sunday.
Is this the end of the love that had just began?
I always hope that the best it was yet to come.
Please, come back, don't you leave me
We both so young, I know you need me too.
And there'll always be times like these.
Loveless nights, they seem so long
I know that I'll hold you someday.
But till you come back where you belong
It's just another lonely Sunday.
Maybe we'll see that we were wrong
If ever we look back one day
But till you come back where you'll belong
It's just another lonely Sunday.
Lonely, lonely.
If you don't come back tomorrow
I'll be left here in the cold
If you don't come back tomorrow, I'll go
Loveless nights, they seem so long
I know that I'll hold you someday.
But till you come back where you belong
It's just another lonely Sunday.
Maybe we'll see that we were wrong
If ever we look back one day
But till you come back where you'll belong
It's just another lonely Sunday.
My whole life waiting for the right time
To tell you how I feel.
Know I try to tell you that I need you.
Here I am without you.
I feel so lost but what can I do?
'Cause I know this love seems real
But I don't know how to feel.
We say goodbye in the pouring rain
And I break down as you walk away.
Stay, stay.
'Cause all my life I felt this way
But I could never find the words to say
Stay, stay.
Alright, everything is alright
Since you came along
And before you
I had nowhere to run to
Nothing to hold on to
I came so close to giving it up.
And I wonder if you know
How it feels to let you go?
You say goodbye in the pouring rain
And I break down as you walk away.
Stay, stay.
'Cause all my life I felt this way
But I could never find the words to say
Stay, stay.
So you change your mind
And say you're mine.
Don't leave tonight
Stay.
Say goodbye in the pouring rain
And I break down as you walk away.
Stay, stay.
'Cause all my life I felt this way
But I could never find the words to say
Stay, stay.
Stay with me, stay with me,
Stay with me, stay with me,
There's a storm on the streets
But you still don't run
Watching and waiting
For the rain to come
And these words wouldn't keep you dry
Or wipe tears from an open sky
But I know but I know
But I know I'm right
And I won't let you drown
When the water's pulling you in
I'll keep fighting, I'll keep fighting
The rain's going to follow you wherever you go
The clouds go black and the thunder rolls
And I see lightning, I see lightning
When the world surrounds you
I'll make it go away
Paint the sky with silver lining
I will try to save you
Cover up the gray
With silver lining
Now there's no way back
From the things you've done
I know it's too late
To stop the setting sun
You see the shadows in the distant light
And it's never gonna be alright
And you know, and you know
And you know I'm right
And I won't get left behind
When the walls come tumbling in
I'll keep climbing, I'll keep climbing
The rain's going to follow you wherever you go
The clouds go black and the thunder rolls
And I see lightning, I see lightning
When the world surrounds you
I'll make it go away
Paint the sky with silver lining
I will try to save you
Cover up the gray
With silver lining
When the world surrounds you
I'll make it go away
Paint the sky with silver lining
I will try to save you
Cover up the gray
With silver lining
Silver, silver, silver, silver
Silver, silver, silver lining
Silver, silver, silver, silver
(Deep blue sky, deep blue sky)
Silver, silver, silver, silver
Silver, silver, silver, silver
Time waits for no one
So do you want to waste some time?
Oh, oh tonight
Don't be afraid of tomorrow
Just take my hand
I'll make it feel so much better tonight
Suddenly my eyes are open
Everything comes into focus, oh
We are all illuminated
Lights are shining on our faces, blinding
Swing me these sorrows
And try delusion for a while
It's such a beautiful night
You've got to lose inhibition
Romance your ego for a while
Come on, give it a try
Suddenly my eyes are open
Everything comes into focus, oh
We are all illuminated
Lights are shining on our faces, blinding
We are, we are blinding
We are, we are blinding
Suddenly my eyes are open
Everything comes into focus, oh
We are all illuminated
Lights are shining on our faces, blinding
We are, we are blinding
How we end up alone by hurtthere's no more use in lying
Yeah, there's no more use in lying
To tell the truth I don't care what you'll do
There's no more use in lying
There's no more use in trying
When there's no more use denying
I gave you the proof
I don't care what you'll do
We act in bitterness
And then we scream our very souls burning
I would react but then my mask would slip and you would see me
I hate her, you love me
Together we're nothing
I'm jus fucking scared to be alone
Then you'll see it from my way
Because you will see it from my way
That's how we end up alone
There's no more use in trying
There was no more use denying
If you paid your dues
I don't care it just proves
That's how we end up alone
There was no more use in crying
If there no more use in hiding
You do what you do
I don't care it just proves.
Nobody seems to care
Cause nobody's ever here
Nobody wants to listen
Cause nobody's even there
So we end up alone
If you fear for my way,
Well then, you'd see it from my way
'Cause when you see it from my way
Well then, you see it from my way
You will see it from my way
Because you will see things my way
I gave her my youth just to make me the proof
That's how we end up alone
That's how we end up alone
Because no one seems to care
Are you looking for happiness?
Are you looking for something better?

Don’t give it away, don’t give it away.
I don’t want your happiness.

I don’t want your happiness.
I don’t need your happiness.
So never show me happiness.
I don't mind
If your hands are a little cold
Guess I'm alive
But I got no way to go
So stay with me, Evelyn
Don't leave me with a medicine
In the night
As you sit and watch me sleep
I know you cry
But I never want to see
So if you go
And I don't know what to do
So don't you go
'Cause I've got no one but you
So stay with me, Evelyn
Don't leave me with a medicine
So stay with me, Evelyn
Don't leave me with a medicine
I see the lights
Casting shadows on my screen
And I don't mind
The lullabies from the machines
But if you go
I don't know what I'll do
So don't you go
'Cause I've got no one but you
So stay with me, Evelyn
Don't leave me with a medicine
So stay with me, Evelyn
Don't leave me
I'm more afraid than I've ever been
Inside the heart of every man
there is a lust you understand
and I’m just the same.
When all the love has gone away
and passion stares me in the face
could I walk away?
Here's hopin' you’ll help me to be brave.
Chorus
Devotion save me now!
I don’t wanna stray from the hallow ground.
I'll turn temptation down
I'm asking you to take me to safety this time.
Forgive my thoughts when I'm asleep
forgive these words I'm yet to speak.
I feel so ashamed.
Right now you seem so far away
so much confusion clouds my way
and I don’t know which path to take!
Here's hopin' you’ll help me to resist.
Chorus
Devotion save me now!
I don’t wanna stray from the hallow ground.
I'll turn temptation down
I'm asking you to take me to safety this time.
Devotion, devotion
I’m a slave unto the mercy of your love.
For so long I’ve been so wrong
I could never live without you.
Devotion, devotion
inside the heart of every man
there is so much to understand
and i'm just the same
when all the love has gone away
and passion stares me in the face
could i walk away
ears open
you'll help me to be brave
devotion save me now
i don't wanna stray from the hallow ground
i'll turn temptation down
i'm asking you to take me to safety this time
forgive my thoughts when i'm asleep
forgive these words i'm yet to speak
i feel so ashamed
right now you seem so far away
so much confusion clouds my mind
and i don't know which path to take
ears open
you'll help me to resist
devotion save me now
i don't wanna stray from the hallow ground
i'll turn temptation down
i'm asking you to take me to safety this time
devotion, devotion
i'm a slave onto the mercy of your love
for so long i've been so wrong
i could never live without you
devotion, devotion
I never thought I could forget you
I never thought I'd be the man I am now.
Just 20 seconds since I left you
'Cause I could never be your lover.
I found another girl to mess me around
So you don't get to make me suffer.
Look into my eyes
There's really nothing left to lose!
But now I know
That I'm never coming back to you!
Chorus:
Love grows cold!
Blood, tears and gold won't make it any better
I never let you down baby, baby
I never let you down baby, baby
And it won't get any better.
Blood, tears, and gold.
It's 20 seconds since I left you
And I remember why I never looked back.
I got no reason to forgive you
I see it in your eyes
The suffering it hides the blue
But I know that it's never gonna hide the truth, the truth
Baby
Blood, tears and gold won't make it any better
I never let you down baby, baby
I never let you down baby, baby
And it won't get any better
Every second is a lifetime
And every minute more brings you closer to God
And you see nothing but the red lights
You let your body burn like never before.
And it feels better than love.
Yeah it feels better than love.
Every second is a lifetime
And every minute more brings you closer to God
And you see nothing but the red lights
You let your body burn like never before.
And it feels better than love.
Yeah it feels better than love.
Turn away, turn away, close your eyes, you can run away.
It's not enough.
Another second in the sunshine,
A decade in the dark taking part in a dream.
Have you forgotten what she looks like?
Or do you only see what you want to believe?
Does it feel better than love?
Does it feel better than love?
Turn away, turn away, close your eyes, you can run away.
It's not enough.
I see the lights through the rain, oh tonight but they never change.
So what is love?
Does it feel better than love?
Does it feel better than love?
Turn away, turn away, close your eyes, you can run away.
It's not enough.
I see the lights through the rain, oh tonight but they never change.
Everybody waits for Christmas,
For me it's New Year's Day
That's gonna come and take my blues away.
I'm wishing on the stars for Christmas
And hoping for a better day,
When it doesn't hurt to feel this way.
And everywhere there's joy around this festive time of year
And happiness has never felt so far away.
All of the bells ringing out for Christmas
I'm singing goodbye to the year before.
I know that the next one will be different so much more.
All of the bells ringing out for Christmas
And I'm not supposed to feel this way.
And all that I want this year for Christmas is New Year's day.
It's only seven days 'till Christmas,
Six more 'till New Year's day.
It's not a good time to feel this way.
Everywhere the snow surrounds you
And melts your troubles away,
I can only hope to feel the same.
I know that there will be tidings of joy this time next year
But happiness has never felt so far away...
All of the bells ringing out for Christmas
I'm singing goodbye to the year before.
I know that the next one will be different so much more.
All of the bells ringing out for Christmas
And I'm not supposed to feel this way.
And all that I want this year for Christmas is New Year's day.
I remember how I used to feel at Christmas.
All of the bells ringing out for Christmas
I'm singing goodbye to the year before.
I know that the next one will be different so much more.
All of the bells ringing out for Christmas
And I'm not supposed to feel this way.
Take my hand and lead the way
Out of the darkness and into the light of the day
And take me somewhere I'll be safe
Carry my lifeless body away from the pain
'Cause I know what I've been missing
And I know that I should try
But there's hope in this submission
And there's freedom in your eyes
And we cry for help
I'm sick and tired of being afraid
If I cry anymore then my tears will wash me away
But when I hear you call my name
I whisper the world that I never thought I'd ever say
And I hope to God you'll listen
And you'll keep me safe from harm
'Cause I found what I was missing
When I fell into your arms
And we cry for help
I can feel the darkness coming
And I'm afraid of myself
Call my name and I'll come running
'Cause I just need some help
I can feel the darkness coming
And I'm afraid of myself
Call my name and I'll come running
I stand in the distance
I watch from afar
Should I offer my assistance
Should it matter who you are
We all get hurt by love
And we all have our cross to bear
But in the name of understanding now
Our problems should be shared
Confide in me, confide in me
I can keep a secret
And throw away the key
But sometimes to release it
Is to set our children free
We all get hurt by love
And we all have our cross to bear
But in the name of understanding now
Our problems should be shared
Confide in me, confide in me
Confide in me, confide in me
Stick or twist the choice is yours
Hit or miss what's mine is yours
Stick or twist the choice is yours
Hit or miss what's mine is yours
We all get hurt by love
And we all have our cross to bear
But in the name of understanding now
Our problems should be shared
Confide in me, confide in me
Confide in me, confide in me
Confide in me, confide in me
In a place close to nowhere
You lift me off the ground
And in your arms it feels like heaven
So wrap your wings around
Lay all over me and cast away my doubt
My heart is empty
And only you can tempt me
Is this hell or heaven?
I can't tell when we're together
Give me strength, give me shelter
Underneath your shroud
And tell me your love will last forever
And I'll wear your heavy crown
And together we will never come back down
My heart is empty
And only you can tempt me
Is this hell or heaven?
I can't tell when we're together
No matter where I run
There's something about your love
What have I become?
There's something about your love
There's something that makes me use my mind
and never come back down
My heart is empty
And only you can tempt me
Is this hell or heaven?
When I go
You will be someone new
You will see the stars come out
You won't feel the pain I've caused at all
'Cause someday I must face up
Someday you'll be better off on your own
So just let me go
Under the bridge
I'll carry this guilt
No more
So under the waves
And out of your way
I'll go
When I'm gone
You will find someone new
And he won't lie or torture you
And you won't cry for what you've lost at all
And someday
When you wake up happy
You will thank the Lord that I'm gone
So darling be strong
I'm under the bridge
I'll bury this guilt
Forever more
So under the waves
And out of your way
I spend these waking hours looking for the Sandman
I spend these waking hours looking for his master plan
I'll wait ‘til morning ‘til he comes to my house
And he'll give no warning when he's knocking me out
So sing me to sleep, tonight,
And don't bring me back to life
I spend these waking hours looking for the Sandman
I spend these waking hours looking for his master plan
He will be sorry when he comes to my house
I'll show no mercy till the lights go out
So sing me to sleep, tonight,
And don't bring me back to life
We're waiting for the sandman, but he never hears the call
We're waiting for the sandman, but he never hears the call
We're waiting for the sandman, but he never hears the call
We're waiting for the sandman, but he never hears the call
So sing me to sleep, tonight,
And don't bring me back to life
We're waiting for the sandman, but he never hears the call
We're waiting for the sandman, but he never hears the call
We're waiting for the sandman, but he never hears the call
Home, it's where the heart is
So just let me breathe again
Make me young again
And we'll go where we are free again
This is not the end
We'll be young again
So we'll say goodbye girl
And watch as the world burns
This is exile
We're in exile
So just let the heads roll
And we'll stand on this world alone
In this exile
We're in exile
Exile, exile, exile...
Home, it's where the heart is
Where we'll never leave again
Suffer or bleed again
When we go
The vultures will feed on them
And fire will come around
And we'll be young again
So we'll say goodbye girl
And watch as the world burns
This is exile
We're in exile
So just let the heads roll
And we'll stand on this world alone
In this exile
We're in exile
We're in exile...
We're in exile...
In my dreams I see the life She brings to me
But I forget Her in the morning.
And I don't need Her holy blessings to be free,
And I can stand it when She's talking, talking back to me.
In the shadow of Mother Nature
We find it hard to live our lives,
But we never chose the life She gave us
And we don't need Her to survive.
It's no wonder we grow strong while You grow weak.
And that's exactly how You made us.
And all your violence makes it
Harder to believe.
And every death just leaves us faithless,
Faithless in defeat.
In the shadow of Mother Nature
We find it hard to live our lives,
But we never chose the life She gave us
Verona oooh
Verona ooh
From the first time that I saw you
Verona, I knew
That tomorrow would be different
With a lady like you
Verona ooh
Verona ooh
From the first time that I saw you
Verona, I knew
That tomorrow would be different
Say a little prayer for me
Cupid, shoot your arrows into me
I feel lust like a sick disease
And my blood ignites when I hold you close to me
And I'll never let you go
Cupid, I'll never let you go
(I'll never let you go)
Bring my lover to her knees
Pierce her skin and make her fall in love with me
'Cause I swear I'll make you bleed
If you break my heart when I hold you close to me
I'll never let you go
Cupid, I'll never let you go
(I'll never let you go)
Cupid, Cupid
I'll never let you go
I'll never let you go
I'll never let you go
I'll never let you go
I'll never let you go
I can't control this flesh and blood
That's wrapped around my bones
It moves beneath me like a river
Into the great unknown
I stepped onto the moving stairs
Before I could tie my shoes
Pried a harp out the fingers of a renegade
Who lived and died the blues
And his promise made was never clear
It just carved itself in me
All I saw was frost inside my head
On the night he said to me
Someday we'll live like horses
Free rein from your old iron fences
There's more ways than one to regain your senses
Break out the stalls and we'll live like horses
We're the victims of the heartbreak
That kept us short of breath
Trapped above these bloodless streets
Without a safety net
I stood in line to join the trial
One more customer of fate
Claimed a spoke in the wheel of the wagon train
On the road to the golden gate
On the flat cracked desert I jumped ship
It just made sense to me
I've spent too long in the belly of the beast
Talk to me girl, tell me your lies
Let your secrets have no ties
‘Cause the light will never shine on this heart of mine
And all the love we sacrificed
Look at all of the damage you have done in time
You can see what a savage I've become, in my eyes
If you look in my heart you will find
No love, no light, no end inside
And I'm looking for a miracle
And I'm looking for a miracle
But I hope, I pray, and I will fight
Cause I'm looking for a miracle
Cause I'm looking for a miracle
There's a place I wanna go
And a life I wanna know
But you crucified my heart of gold
But oh, look at all of the damage you have done in turn
If you offer salvation, I will run into your arms
And deep in my heart you will find
No love, no light, no end inside
And I'm looking for a miracle
And I'm looking for a miracle
But I hope, I pray, and I will fight
Cause I'm looking for a miracle
Cause I'm looking for a miracle
Miracle
And I'm looking for a miracle
There's no love, no light, no end inside
And I'm looking for a miracle
And I'm looking for a miracle
But I hope, I pray, and I will fight
Cause I'm looking for a miracle
Rock me on the river,
Where my troubles belong.
'Cause you know I love you,
But I know it's wrong,
But your body is all that I want.
Rosy affair,
You took my heart for a little while
Greatest mistake
I ever made was –
Loving you.
Rosy affair,
I gave you my heart for a little while
Wish I could stay with you tonight.
I'm going home.
And we danced all night in the shadows,
Alone we stood in the crowd.
But I'm going crazy, now you're not around
You should find another lover, baby
Who won't let you down.
Rosy affair,
You took my heart for a little while.
Greatest mistake
I ever made –
Loving you.
Rosy affair,
I gave you my heart for a little while.
Wish I could stay with you tonight.
I'm going home.
I'm sorry that I couldn't love you, no more
I'm sorry that I didn't tell you
I talk to you, Rosy.
If I stay here tonight
There'll be trouble,
But I don't want to pretend.
'Cause I know that we'll make it
My heart just can't take it no more,
But I would rather lose a lover, baby, over it all.
Rosy affair,
Greatest mistake
I ever made.
Rosy affair,
For a little while, too long
Wish I could stay with you tonight.
Rosy affair,
You took my heart for a little while
Greatest mistake
I ever made –
Loving you.
Rosy affair,
I gave you my heart for a little while
Wish I could stay with you tonight
Oh we ain't got a barrel of money
Maybe we're ragged and funny
But we'll travel along singin' our song side by side
Don't know what's comin' tomorrow
Maybe it's trouble and sorrow
But we'll travel the road sharin' our load side by side
Through all kinds of weather
What if the sky should fall?
Just so long as we're together
It doesn't matter at all
When they've all had their quarrels and parted
We'll be the same as we started
Just travlin' along singin' our song
