Kūkai (空海), also known posthumously as Kōbō-Daishi (弘法大師, The Grand Master Who Propagated the Buddhist Teaching?), 774–835, was a Japanese monk, civil servant, scholar, poet, and artist, founder of the Shingon or "True Word" school of Buddhism. Shingon followers usually refer to him by the honorific titles of O-Daishi-sama (お大師様?) and Henjō-Kongō (遍照金剛?).
Kūkai is famous as a calligrapher (see Japanese calligraphy) and engineer. Among the many achievements attributed to him is the invention of the kana, the syllabary in which, in combination with Chinese characters (kanji) the Japanese language is written, a claim which is no longer taken seriously in scholarly circles, despite its persistence in popular belief. Also according to tradition, the Iroha, which uses every phonetic kana syllable just once and is one of the most famous poems in Japanese, is attributed to him but again, this is popular belief and nowhere attested to. His religious writings, some fifty works, expound the esoteric Shingon doctrine. The major ones have been translated into English by Yoshito Hakeda (see references below).
I never thought I could feel like this, no
You turn my world upside down
I never thought I could love you this way
I just want you to know
And everytime I look out my window
I wish that you would be here
Â''cause everytime that I see you baby
It feels like walking on air
Â''cause IÂ'll be by your side
But I don't know if I`ll be on your mind
So tell me is it right feeling blue
If youÂ're out there
Looking for me
I wanna hold you tonight
I wanna touch you right now
Because I wanna be there when you are sleeping
And anything you say IÂ'll do it for you
And I just wanna be there by your side
I wanna hold you tonight
I don't know where you are
Where you are now
But IÂ'll be waiting for you
Playing tricks with my heart
Won`t get me down
When I know youÂ're around
'cause I`ll be by your sideâ¦â¦..
I wanna hold youâ¦â¦â¦â¦â¦..
If I could show you
You would know that I still care
If you still want me
You know that IÂ'll be there
And I`ll be by your side
But I don't know if IÂ'll be on your mind
If I could right those wrongs
I did you
Tell me would it be like this
Sometimes this is all I think of
I don't have the strenght to miss
This ain't about the words that's fallen
Not another way to let go
You'll know - so tell me
Who's ganna take you back again
Who's gonna show you every thing
Baby
You just wait and see
I'm gonna keep the promises
I'm gonna be the one who say's
Baby
You just wait and see
If you fail to show me
Don't stop trying
This is just the way it goes
I know that you've been hurting
I been trying
This is all I really know
This ain't about the words that's fallen
Just another way to believe
You'll see - so tell me
Who's ganna take you back again
Who's gonna show you every thing
Baby
You just wait and see
I'm gonna keep the promises
I'm gonna be the one who say's
Baby
You just wait and see
Who's gonna take
Who's gonna give
Who's gonna be the one
Who takes the risk
Who's gonna leave
Who's gonna stay
Who's gonna be the one
Who finds the way
Who's ganna take you back again
Who's gonna show you every thing
Baby
You just wait and see
I'm gonna keep the promises
I'm gonna be the one who say's
Baby
Do donÂ't wonÂ't
Here I am
Feeling down, feeling blue
Don't you know
What it is I`m looking for in you
Turn around, girl
Don't close your eyes I want the truth
Â''cause I got some thing to say to you â yeah
What if I do love you
What if I don't want to
What if I do â what if I don't â what if I wonÂ't
Can`t you see
What IÂ'm trying to explain
Not so hard
Â''cause all you need in life is the things you can`t see
So turn around, girl
Just close your eyes and think of me
Now I got something to say to you â Yeah
What ifâ¦â¦â¦â¦..
I can`t decide it
Â''cause I can`t tell whatÂ's right or wrong
At all
When the day is done and IÂ'm without her
I feel like a cloud across the sun
Â''cause she`s all I have
I feel it in my blood
That maybe IÂ'm holding on to a never ending road
Oohhh I`ll never know
If IÂ'll be looking back when I grow old
And feel like I do now
She`s the only one
I need her in my life
Anything else seems so wrong
I have her in my heart
And I will always love her Â'till the end of time
SheÂ's the only one
I hold her in my dreams
Everytime I close my eyes
I feel her in my arms
I feel her in my heart
This is her song
Everytime IÂ'm down and lonely
It feels like praying without believing
When she`s not by my side
Â''cause now I know how much she means to me
But I canÂ't change the way she feels
Without her in my life
Ooohhhâ¦â¦..
She`s the only oneâ¦â¦â¦.
IÂ'm looking for
A way to let her know
IÂ'm searching for
You know IÂ'm gonna make a try
I never wanna let it die
But this ainÂ't right
Don't justify
You â you`re everything I need
But sometimes we just disagree
And this is my way to proceed
Silence cannot breathe on your side
But emptiness is my wound
Â''cause IÂ'm in pain why canÂ't you see IÂ'm down
Being the one just around
IÂ'll stay away Â'till it`s over
Â''cause you need to realize
ItÂ's time for me to go
Please stay away Â'till it`s over
And I will clear my thoughts again
Crazy or blind
IÂ'll stay away Â'till it`s gone
You â you`re everything I want
The reason why I wrote this song
IÂ'll be back when words are gone
If silence can`t survive on your side
Then loneliness is my pride
When IÂ'm in pain why can`t you see IÂ'm down
Being the one just around
IÂ'll stayâ¦â¦â¦â¦..
You have to understand
It`s only for a while
You have to understand
Baby IÂ'm tired of thinking I was wrong
IÂ'm lost with no sign
A game with no end
IÂ've been there searching gold but suddenly
You played with my mind
Got words from behind
A promise is right babe
I can believe in some
No win by default in your life
IÂ'm lost when youÂ're mindless
How can I fall down
Baby when your love is too far
There`s no strength in my heart
No will leads to distance
Can you feel it now
Your love is too far
I swear but again
The silence between us
I can feel it now â ooh yeah
Baby desire still relies on you
Take a look at me now
As it still lingers on
You let my feelings grow
But honestly
IÂ'm through with your game
You canÂ't always be right
A promise is sacred
I can believe in some
With you it's a million to one
I`m lost Â''cause youÂ're mindless
But how can I fall down
Baby when yourâ¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦.
Maybe in another life babe â I just want it good and real
Bangkok, Oriental setting
And the city don't know that the city is getting
The creme de la creme of the chess world in a
Show with everything but Yul Brynner
Time flies -- doesn't seem a minute
Since the Tirolean spa had the chess boys in it
All change -- don't you know that when you
Play at this level there's no ordinary venue
It's Iceland -- or the Philippines -- or Hastings -- or -- or this place!
One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster
The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free
You'll find a god in every golden cloister
And if you're lucky then the god's a she
I can feel an angel sliding up to me
One town's very like another
When your head's down over your pieces, brother
It's a drag, it's a bore, it's really such a pity
To be looking at the board, not looking at the city
Whaddya mean? Ya seen one crowded, polluted, stinking town --
Tea, girls, warm and sweet
Some are set up in the Somerset Maugham suite
Get Thai'd! You're talking to a tourist
Whose every move's among the purest
I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine
One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble
Not much between despair and ecstasy
One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
Can't be too careful with your company
I can feel the devil walking next to me
Siam's gonna be the witness
To the ultimate test of cerebral fitness
This grips me more than would a
Muddy old river or reclining Buddha
And thank God I'm only watching the game -- controlling it --
I don't see you guys rating
The kind of mate I'm contemplating
I'd let you watch, I would invite you
But the queens we use would not excite you
So you better go back to your bars, your temples, your massage parlours --
One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster
The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free
You'll find a god in every golden cloister
A little flesh, a little history
I can feel an angel sliding up to me
One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble
Not much between despair and ecstasy
One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
Can't be too careful with your company
Say - say it ain't over
'cause my heart is crying for you
Down - deep down you know that
so can you forgive me the truth
I kept my feelings inside of me
but now I can see
Don't wanna lose you
I'm here to stay
did I confuse you - girl
believe when I say
I never meant to
hurt you that way
I can't take a day without you
here by my side
I - I got this feeling
that you're gonna show me the way
How can I convince you
that love is the reason to stay
I kept my feelings inside of me
but now I can see
Don't wanna lose you
I'm here to stay
did I confuse you - girl
believe when I say
I never meant to
hurt you that way
I can't take a day without you
Drifting in a tide of emotion my state of minds
got me spinning round upside down
I'm tumbling to the ground ahh yeah
and everytime I call you up to communicate my feelings
you just back me out scream and shout
now your out of control ahh yeah
Ain't crazy ain't strange
how our lifes are rearranged
things will never be the same again no
Deep down can you hear what I'm saying
I found that there's another waying
right now can you hear what I'm saying
deep down deep down
deep down there's a word that describes it
somehow I guess I'll never find it
deep down deep down
Guess I'll just ponder on my thought's
just like the night before
all the love we use to share
it's killing me that you don't care ahh yeah
it's gonna be a long road with twists and turns, lessons learnt, bridges burnt
I guess it's just the way it goes ahh yeah
Ain't crazy ain't strange
how our lifes are rearranged
things will never be the same again no
Deep down can you hear what I'm saying
I found that there's another way(ing)
right now can you hear what I'm saying
deep down deep down
deep down there's a word that describes it
somehow I guess I'll never find it
deep down deep down
Deep down deep deep down
deep down there's a word that describes it
somehow I guess I'll never find it
deep down deep down
deep down deep deep down
Deep down there's a word that describes it
somehow I guess I'll never find it
Get this feeling when you are near
Can't believe it
The way you make me feel
I've been trying to fool myself
But I can't deny it
I never felt this way before
I just can't hold it back no more
Yeah yeah
I don't wait another day
I wanna hold you here and now
For always hey yeah
Im' gonna find a way to
Tell you tonight
'cause I don't wanna wait
Another day
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Torse and turning in my bed
Thoughts of you keep spining in my head
Can't keep playing all these games
All I'm saying
Is I never felt this way before
I just can't hold it back no more
I don't wait another day
I wanna hold you here and now
For always hey yeah
Im' gonna find a way to
Tell you tonight
'cause I don't wanna wait
Another day
I don't wanna keep you from my heart
And what it is has to say
I don't wanna wait untill tomorrow
It's to late
I don't wanna wait
I just wanna hold you here and now
Yeah yeah
For always yeah
I must find a way to tell you tonight
I don't wait another day
I wanna hold you here and now
For always hey yeah
Im' gonna find a way to
Tell you tonight
'cause I don't wanna wait
Another day
I don't wanna wait
Wait another day
I just wanna hold you here and now
I don't wanna wait
Wait another day
I must find a way to tell you tonight
I must find a way
'cause i don't wanna wait
How are doing are you okay
Its lovely day why hide away
Forget the ceel phone and just let it ring
Pull the curtain and see what it brings
Take your hand out of your pocket
And show them what you got
You are learning by living
Paraglide the winds of change
Make it by trying
Dont hold back just get it on and on
One cup too many of coffee you'll see
You think your hosting on mtv
Is that your way of letting go
Then you'll better stop the show
Take your hand out of your pocket
And show them what you got
You are learning by living
Paraglide the winds of change
Make it by trying
Dont hold back just get it on and on
You'll better get a ticket
To get a seat on next flight
I'll take your bags on
Leaving this old place
You are learning by living
Paraglide the winds of change
Make it by trying
I can't sleep I'm incomplete
as long as you don't tell me baby
the one thing I need to know right know
If only you would, call me
and put on hold
those dreams your lost in baby
just let me know, let me know where I belong
I can't go on like this
I'm caught up in this twilight
until you come around and set me free
I don't wanna hang on a string
I don't wanna wait for you to ring
tell me I can't read your mind
don't keep me waiting
keep me calling
keep me hanging here on a string
Maybe, you hesitate
twice shy, that's why your waiting
maybe, I set my hopes to high
But all I wanna, do now
is hold you close
and tell you the way I'm feeling
it's like you got, you got a hold on me
I can't go on like this
I'm caught up in this twilight
until you come around and set me free
I don't wanna hang on a string
I don't wanna wait for you to ring
tell me I can't read your mind
don't keep me waiting
keep me calling
keep me hanging here on a string
Every moment twenty 4-7
and everything in between
I wait for you to call me
I wait for you to tell me
I can't believe
that were sitting here
it's like a dream come true
after all these years
I've been looking for love
in every possible place
searching for an answer
in every strangers face
I didn't know what to do
or where to go
but you were here all the time
you stole my heart
you opened up my eyes
baby you changed my life
Say it again one more time
those three little words that'll change my life
say it again say I love you
say it today and tomorrow to
say it forever
say that you love me again
And I have been foolish
so many times
I wasn't to carefull
with this heart of mine
I had a dream
of an honest heart
of a full commitment
right from the start
Someone up there
must have heard my prayers
and somehow send you my way
I give you my heart
I give you my soul
I give you my night and day
Say it again one more time
those three little words that'll change my life
say it again say I love you
say it today and tomorrow to
say it forever
say that you love me again
"When I Look In Your Eyes"
For the first time I see it in your eyes
For the first time it hurts deep inside
I wish that I could turn back time
But there's no going back ?no way to deny
Ooohh suddenly
It feels like loosing it all
I'm trying so hard to be strong
When I look in your eyes
I don't know how to tell you
With every beat of my heart I try
To find a way to survive
Find a way to let go now
Tell me how to live my life alone
It's so hard to tell the truth from the lies
So would you hold my hand for one last goodbye
I don't know if I can let go
Who will catch me if I stumble and fall
Life is more than
just a feeling
and love is more
than you and me
No matter what
this world can't stop me
no matter how
it's gonna be
No matter what
i don't regret it
a jump can take
me really high
i must be doing this to find it,
when i land i realize
And I just need to know
you will be there
and catch me if I fall
'cause I'm going high high high
I'm standing on the edge
I never been so high
break jump and fly
I wanna touch the sky
I'm standing on the edge
I really wanna try
break jump and fly
i wanna touch the sky
No matter what
this world can't hold me
no matter how
I'm gonna try
I must be human for a reason
no matter what
I canÂ't believe
IÂ'm holding on to everything you said
When you don't say it anymore
So many people told me
But I couldnÂ't breath
Just look at me now
I canÂ't believe
I never knew that at all
ItÂ's so hard
To realize why you always do this
To me, yeah
If you don't open up your heart
You don't wanna know
How to get me back inside
You don't know
Â''cause everytime I try
You always keep me waiting
all alone - forever
I close my eyes
To drift away, leave it all behind
What I see is just the same
Maybe if I hold you
So much to say
But where do I start
I canÂ't believe
That I never knew that at all
Its so hard
To realize why you always do this
I hope you listen now
Wherever you are
I hope my words will fly
And get to you far away frome here
Coz you're all my life
All I wish to find
All I ever really wanted and more
But I should have told you before
The magic was gone
My days were always bright
When you were around
My heart was filled with life
And music of love was in my ears (yeah)
Coz you're all my life
All I wish to find
All I ever really wanted and more
But I should have told you before
The magic had gone
Chorus:
You're my heart
You're my love
You're my everything
You're the air that I breathe
You're the songs that I sing
I don't know why I let you walk out of my heart
I can't live without you no more
But I should have told you before the magic had gone
So if you hear me cry
Please come awake
And shape this lonely heart
Take fear away from me (oh yeah)
Coz you're all my life
All I wish to find
All I ever really wanted and more
But I should have told you before
The magic had gone
Chorus:
You're my heart
You're my love
You're my everything
You're the air that I breathe
You're the songs that I sing
I don't why I let you walk out of my heart
I can't live without you no more
But I should have told you before
The magic had gone
Bridge:
Time will fly
Our love will fade away
Everything we had might disappear
But I won't let
I won't let it go
Just hide it in my heart
Save it here
Chorus:
You're my heart
You're my love
You're my everything
You're the air that I breathe
You're the songs that I sing
I don't know why I let you walk out of my heart
I can't live without you no more
But I should have told you before
The magic had gone
HERE YOU ARE ON THE BACK OF MY MIND AGAIN
DON'T GUESS IT'S GONNA GET ANY BETTER
IS YOUR MEMORY EVER GONNA END
OR DOES IT GO ON FOREVER
I WAS THE ONE WHEN YOU LEFT TOWN
SAID I'D GET ALONG SOMEHOW
DIDN'T TAKE LONG TO FIND OUT
THAT I WAS WRONG
CHORUS:
LOOK AT ME NOW
NOTHING BUT A WHOLE LOT OF TIME ON MY HANDS
LOOK AT ME NOW
THOUGHT I WOULDN'T NEED YOU, NOW I UNDERSTAND
YOU SAID I WAS NEVER GONNA LEARN
LOOK AT NE NOW
I WAS SO BUSY LOOKING AT FOR MYSELF
I KNOW I MUST HAVE TOOK YOU FOR GRANTED
DIDN'T WANT TO MAKE ROOM FOR SOMEONE ELSE
DIDN'T KNOW LOVE WHEN I HAD IT
YOU WERE THE ONE WHO SET ME FREE
BUT YOU CAN LAY THE BLAME ON ME
COME MY WAY AND YOU'LL SEE
I HAVE CHANGED
(CHORUS)
CALLING YOUR NAME IN THE QUIET OF THE NIGHT
SEEING YOUR FACE EVERY TIME I CLOSE BY EYES
IT'S ALWAYS THE SAME, I KEEP HOPING THAT YOU MIGHT
LOOK AT NE NOW
STANDING HERE HOLDING MY HEART IN MY HANDS
LOOK AT ME NOW
WISHING I'D TOLD YOU WE COULD STILL START AGAIN
WHAT I'D GIVE IF YOU TURNED
AND LOOK AT ME NOW
You are stuck in my heart
Like counting a million stars
For that many reasons you are
Can't you tell
you've been all over me like a spell - I know
(I never wanna let you go)
Can't you see
you've been changing the world around me - I know
(I never wanna let you go)
If you hold me close enough
I can whisper you the words
If the distance is to far
I can't do nothing, 'cause
You are stuck in my heart
and we can go anywhere
whatever the reason you are
so stuck in my heart
like counting a million stars
for that many reasons you are
Can't deny
since I met you that day I've been blind - to see
( Now I wanna know for real)
Inside me
I'm afraid to wake up from a dream - and see
(It never really happened to me)
If you hold me close enough
I can whisper you the words
If the distance is to far
I can't do nothing, 'cause
You are stuck in my heart
and we can go anywhere
whatever the reason you are
so stuck in my heart
like counting a million stars
for that many reasons you are
You are......like a dream so deep inside of me
You are......the reason that I never sleep
You are......stuck in my heart
You are
Can't you tell
you've been all over me like a spell
(I will never let you go, I will never let you go no, no)
Can't you see
you've been changing the world around me
(I don't wanna let you go, no I'll never let you go no, no)
I can't do nothing, 'cause
You are stuck in my heart
and we can go anywhere
whatever the reason you are
so stuck in my heart
like counting a million stars
Don't push it â no, don't push it
The lifeline is your source
Would you believe it if I told you Â'bout something
Would you lie for the benefit of doubt so you will loose
You won`t feel attractive
You won`t feel accepted
Why â waste it on a sick try
When the tough keeps coming at you, don't fall
The only thing I really want is just you back in life
Your life doesnÂ't spin around â I can see it now
Your eyes wonÂ't get me down â I want you back in life
Would you know if you been living on a lie
Or would you keep walking on a thin line
Don't break it, don't break a lifeline
You`ll find your reasons
But youÂ're right next to me
Don't break it, don't break a good sign
If you go crazy in a mixed up world
IÂ'll let you off easy
But breaking it will be a sin
I would die if I didnÂ't see sunlight
Why would you be the one blocking my sight â IÂ'm on your side
You will find me attractive
You will be accepted now
I set the course I'm coming back
I never should have gone
I started listen' to the radio
They write of you in all the songs
You say it all you make it clear
We shouldn't be apart
I couldn't take anymore like this
Like holding the world in my heart
I wanna see you
Don't you know
I wanna hold you
Can't you tell
That every little bit of me
just wanna be the song in your heart
I wanna comeback
I don't wanna let you go
This is the way I'm gonna let you know
Baby look at us
I don't wanna live with my fingers crossed
Could I tell you this
Could I show you that
I just wanna be with you again
If only I could say the words
And see the smile on your face
If only I could make it back in time
That's when the world is mine
I wanna see you
Don't you know
I wanna hold you
Can't you tell
That every little bit of me
just wanna be the song in your heart
I wanna comeback
I don't wanna let you go
This is the way i'm gonna let you know
Baby look at us
I don't wanna live with my fingers crossed
Could I tell you this
Could I show you that
Hold on we've just begun
we're still looking for a place in the sun
so don't give up on one mistake
'cause I know it's you and I what ever it takes
Ok I know I was wrong
to hurt the someone to whom I belong
I feel so lost and I need to know if your heart
really wanna let me go
Is it too late to say I'm sorry
The things that I've said the way that you feel
Tell me girl
Is it too late to say I worry
About you
After all you know me well
I'm not always completely myself
my intensions don't seem to fail
when it comes to you 'cause I know this love is true
Is it too late to say I'm sorry
The things I've said the way that you feel
tell me girl
Is it too late to say I worry
I wan't you to see that I can be
Anything to be by your side
I just want you to know - hey ahh
you were never really out of my dreams
baby don't let me go know let me stay
Is it too late to say I'm sorry
The things I've said the way that you feel
tell me girl
Is it too late to say I worry
I wan't you to see that I can be
Tell me girl
Is it too late to say I'm sorry
The things I've said the way that you feel
tell me girl
Is it too late to say I worry
I wan't you to see that I can be
It's early in the morning
soon another day will dawn
I can't wait to feel your arms
around me again
I believe that we could
lay down the world
together we could live
the dream that never ends
Open up the door
just a little more
baby let me in
You are the one, You are the one
who can make moments last forever
The one that makes the sun shine
where ever you go, You are the one
why make it harder, than it has to be
just listen, I'll give you love
if you'll give me your heart
Everytime I near you
time is standing still
there's nothing you can't fix
with your heavenly smile
I would never leave you
my love is for life
taking things for granted
was never my style
Just give a little love
say you'll never stop
I'll do anything
You are the one, You are the one
who can make moments last forever
The one that makes the sun shine
where ever you go, You are the one
why make it harder, than it has to be
just listen, I'll give you love
If you'll give me your heart
And I'll do anything
if you give me your heart
ahh ahh yeah
I'll do anything
You are the one, You are the one
who can make moments last forever
The one that makes the sun shine
where ever you go
give a little love
say you'll never stop
and I'll do anything
I'll give you love
if you'll give me your heart
ohhhhh ohhhhh
who can make moments last forever
The one that makes the sun shine
Where ever you go
you are the one
why make it harder, than it has to be
just listen, I'll give you love
ALL THAT I WANT / C21
I just need you to know
That everytime you walk into a room I get a feeling
And I try to make it show
But every now and then it seems as though you don't believe it
Girl just dance
I like the way you move it
Just shake, shake, shake into the music
C'mon and dance
Don't worry about it
Don't need to play no games 'cause I love you just the same
(You turn) me on and on turn me on
The definition of all that I want
But you don't seem to hear me at all
I'm telling you
Baby you're all that I want

Please forgive what I said

Tears are drowning my heart
I need you to
tell me tell me baby......
Could you ever love me again
if I say that I'm sorry
could you ever hold me
the way we used to hold eachother
would you ever trust me same
if I say that I'm sorry
could you ever love me again
I softly whisper your name
dont wanna burn out the flame
I never ever doubted my mind
when there's a mountain to climb
You got the words in your heart
I need you to
tell me tell me baby......
Could you ever love me again
if I say that I'm sorry
could you ever hold me
the way we used to hold eachother
would you ever trust me same
if I say that I'm sorry
could you ever love me again
I want you close
closer than close
So many things to say
so many words to spell
the way you make me feel
I want my heart to tell
No place to run and hide
don't you know....
That I've been strong enough for loneliness
I'm holding back the best
Love will never lie
even when your gone
I will be right here
waiting 'till we belong
Love will never lie
I stole your rights to cry
I will be right here
waiting 'till we belong
Don't tell me how to change
don't tell me what I need
how will you hear my words
if you don't believe
I wanna take you back
'cause now I know....
That I've been strong enough for loneliness
I'm holding back the best
Love will never lie
even when your gone
I will be right here
waiting 'till we belong
Love will never lie
I stole your rights to cry
I will be right here
waiting 'till we belong
It's good to know
the words to say
without losing faith
I know that it's coming thru
I've been trying to believe
I've been trying but it's over
She's been hoping for
that you will find your love again
I'm flying paperplanes
With all the letters she writes
Why don't you realize now
That everytime you break it
She cries
Haven't been around to see her
All night
Haven't been around to hold her
I try but she cries
Haven't been around to tell her
That i try the best that i can
Words dont change the way i feel
Dont deny it to be better
Shes been cloce to me
And i dont wanna lose a friend
I've been looking for a way
To say im sorry
She's been waiting for you
But everytime your gone
She cries
Haven't been around to see her
All night
Haven't been around to hold her
I try but she cries
Haven't been around to tell her
That i try the best that i can
You dont wanna make it stop
I think i have seen enough
Things have just been way to rough
Tired of the same old bluff
I dont wanna make you cry
I just wanna say goodbye
I dont need your seek and hide
Living on the same old lie
She cries
Haven't been around to see her
All night
Haven't been around to hold her
I try but she cries
Haven't been around to tell her
I see no picture of you, no
We never ended this right, so
Now IÂ'm back and on time
Strong enough to keep you in mind
How could I miss such beautiful lips
When I canÂ't deny just a look in your eyes
Takes me higher than high
I just realize
Time is passing by
I tremble as I try
To tell you why
IÂ'm so confused
And it has to turn out right
Just one minute of your time give me
Just one hour I can never let you be
Must go on like a heart with a beat
If you believe in me
I always wanna be
Imagine roses frozen but alive
So sad I wonder could you be mine
IÂ'm drawing xx.Â's Â'cause I canÂ't write
It feels like snow in July
When I can`t reply to a question it`s you
IÂ'm awake all night, canÂ't sleep Â''cause itÂ's you
There`s nothing left for me to hide
Hold me close
you never really know until it goes
why it ends
can't you see
the way your acting now
is tearin' me, tearin' me apart
You can't be walking out that door
say(ing) you don't love me anymore
Just give a little bit of lovin and I'm ok
have a little bit of faith don't walk away
'cause I know that you need me
just open your eyes
it's me that your hurting
and your love cuts deep inside
I want to know
I never thought I'd have to let you go
tell me why
true as can be
what it would take for you to stay with me
one more night
You can't be walking out that door
say(ing) that you don't love me anymore
Just give a little bit of lovin and I'm ok
have a little bit of faith don't walk away
'cause I know that you need me
just open your eyes
it's me that your hurting
and your love cuts deep inside
You got me running
got me out of my mind
but you don't seem to understand
you know I need you I always had
So don't be walking out that door
say(ing) you don't love me anymore
Just give a little bit of lovin and I'm ok
have a little bit of faith don't walk away
'cause I know that you need me
just open your eyes
it's me that your hurting
Don't you know that IÂ'm lost
I took it for granted too long
IÂ've been trying now itÂ's gone
How could we live on a lie
I can see you wanna be strong
Just let it go
Don't you see somehow we were blind
When I look in your eyes
I don't know whatÂ's right
But all we have is now
Tell me why it ainÂ't easy
When you know that I still believe it
Just look around canÂ't you see
We just need to find a way to forgive
So tell me why it ainÂ't easy
When you know
You're the only one who lives in my heart
I don't know if IÂ'm wrong
IÂ've been looking back
Maybe IÂ'm not that strong
Enough to love you like that
I believe somehow in your heart you know
I could never be the one who`s letting you go
Â''cause when I see you cry
I don't know whatÂ's right
But all we have is now
Tell meâ¦â¦â¦â¦â¦..
Why canÂ't you see it doesnÂ't matter how we get there
We`re just a second away from where we wanna be
I still believe that you`ll find the answer
You know I need your love
You got that hold over me
As long as I've got your love
You know that I'll never leave
When i wanted you to share my life
I had no doubt in my mind
And it's been you...woman
Right down the line
I know how much i lean on you
Only you can see
The changes that i've been through
Have left a mark on me
You've been as constant as a northern star
The brightest light that shines
It's been you...woman
Right down the line
I just wanna say this is my way of tellin you everything i could never say before
Yeah this is my way of tellin you that everyday I'm lovin you so much more
Cos You believed in me
Throughmy darkest night
Put something better inside of me
You brought me in to the light
Threw away all those crazy dreams
I put them all behind
But it was you...woman
Right down the line
I just wanna say this is my way of tellin you everything i could never say before
Yeah this is my way of tellin you that everyday I'm lovin you so much more
If I should doubt myself
If I'm losin ground
I won't turn to someone else
They'd only let me down
When i wanted you to share my life
I had no doubt in my mind
And it's been you...woman
Right down the line
I set the course I'm coming back
I never should have gone
I started listenÂ' to the radio
They write of you in all the songs
You say it all you make it clear
We shouldn't be apart
I couldn't take anymore like this
Like holding the world in my heart
I wanna see you
Don't you know
I wanna hold you
Can't you tell
That every little bit of me
just wanna be the song in your heart
I wanna comeback
I don't wanna let you go
This is the way I'm gonna let you know
Baby look at us
I don't wanna live with my fingers crossed
Could I tell you this
Could I show you that
I just wanna be with you again
If only I could say the words
And see the smile on your face
If only I could make it back in time
That's when the world is mine
I wanna see you
Don't you know
I wanna hold you
Can't you tell
That every little bit of me
just wanna be the song in your heart
I wanna comeback
I don't wanna let you go
This is the way i'm gonna let you know
Baby look at us
I don't wanna live with my fingers crossed
Could I tell you this
Could I show you that
start stop and start
stupid acting smart
flirting with the flicks
you say it's just for kicks
you'll be the victim of your own dirty tricks
you got yourself to tease and displease
doors swinging wide
you walked in to hide
looking at your feet
failure's complete
saw you and me on the coin-op tv
frozen in fear every time we appear
i'm not surprised at all and really, why should i be?
see nothing wrong
see nothing wrong
so sick and tired of all these pictures of me
completely wrong
totally wrong
go walking by
here come another guy
jailer who sells personal hells
who'd like to see me down on my fucking knees
everybody's dying just to get the disease
hey hey hey hey
i'm not surprised and really, why should i be?
see nothing wrong
see nothing wrong
so sick and tired of all these pictures of me
completely wrong
totally wrong
i'm not surprised and really, why should i be?
see nothing wrong
see nothing wrong
so sick and tired of all these pictures of me
oh everybody's dying just to get the disease
everybody's dying just to get the disease
everybody's dying just to get the disease
Staring at life through the blink of an eye
Day after day doing everything right
But finding yourself at the back of the line
Hostility in the back of your mind
Sometimes you feel like the world is laughing
Spinning around on the tip of a pin
Confidence holds up the phone to your ear
The caller predicts where you’ll be in a year
Oh, if time is on our side
Then why are we waiting?
Four leaf clover
Four leaf clover
Come on over
Four leaf clover
Oh, four leaf clover
Come on over
Here’s to the fortune
Here’s to romance
And here’s cosmic nature of chance
But whatever happened in New York City?
And what will the rest of the century bring?
Fate is a hammer, fate is a spring
Winding up tightly around everything
But don’t look away for a moment
You’ll miss your fortune uncoil
At the flick of a wrist
Oh, with time upon our side
There’s no use waiting
CHORUS
Floating through the void
No existential choice
There’s no control, no control.
Our superstitious voice
Claims luck is such a whore
And no one’s free from destiny.
CHORUS
We will not wait for you
But what else can we do
We haven’t got the time
Our faces turning blue
We shouldn’t wait for you
But what else can we do
Four leaf clover?
Oh, four leaf clover
C’mon over
Oh, four leaf clover
when you tell me that you don't love anymore one
I tell you babe you better go
but realize that love is not like a rainbow
you know love is a thing that must grow
fighting is easy why did you tell me that you are leavin'
listen babe first you have to know that I really love you
I promise you girl that I will change my live when you
tell me that you love me
come on let us dance and let us sing just the whole night
and let's talk about love in the moonlight
maybe there comes a time that you will see
that I really try to do my best
I hope that you never forget the first day that you saw
from that moment you were drivin' me mad
Ann, I will love you
When I know that I can
Ann, I will love you
When you know what I am
You think that you love me
But you don't know me yet
Perhaps I'm not what I'll be
You think that you love me
But I don't think it's that
You have to learn to live with me
You think that you love me
But you don't know me yet
Perhaps I'm not what I'll be
You think that you love me
But I don't think it's that
You have to learn to live with me
Ann, I will try it
But I think that I can't
Ann, I will try it
And my love she's still smiling to me
Don't you run, she wants to cry
She found out that I don't love her
And other things I said were lies
She cannot turn me loose, oh no
In spite of everything she's still in love
To her lovesick mind I'm from above
My love, she is a quarrely girl
She just can't quarrel with me
When I say: "I want to love you"
She says: "You must wait and see"
She cannot turn me loose, oh no
In spite of everything she's still in love
To her lovesick mind I'm from above
I think I don't want to pray
'Cause I need a childish love
I found out that it's too fine
Yes, it's too fine to swap
I cannot turn her loose, oh no
In spite of her 'cause I'm in love
To my lovesick mind she's from above
I cannot turn her loose, oh no
In spite of her 'cause I'm in love
To my lovesick mind she's from above
I cannot turn her loose, oh no
In spite of her 'cause I'm in love
Well, to my lovesick mind she's from above
I cannot turn her loose, oh no
In spite of her 'cause I'm in love
Call me mister pitiful
Baby that's my name now
Call me mister pitiful
That's how I got my fame
But people just don't understand
What makes a man feel so blue
They call me mister pitiful
'Cause I lost someone just like you
They call me mister pitiful
This everybody knows now
They call me mister pitiful
Most every place I go
But nobody seems to understand
How can a man sing such a sad song ooh
When he lost everything
When he lost everything he had
How can I explain to you
When somebody has been so very blue
How can I tel you 'bout my past
And all the things won't end
I just can´t wait (Roelofs,Bieler)
When the sun is shining
When the babies are crying
I just realized the good things
When the people say that my life is ok
I just realized the good things
And when I walk with woman
I'm so proud
I'm proud of the things we've done
I'm gonna be a father
And we must carry on
Cause I wanna help her have a child

I was a little boy
Age of five
Got somethin' in my pocket
Keep a lot o'folks alive
Yes I'm a man
I spell it M-A-N man man
All you pretty women
You stand in line
I can make love to you baby
In an hour's time
Yes I'm a man
I got nightmares all the time
'Bout a girl who ain't too fine
Being in love with that girl is worse
Knocks me on my head at first
Then she splits my mind in two
Kiss my lips and beats me too
My head does hurt, my eyes do ring
Like a shingle wishes branch
I feel the weight of thousand stone
With this stick she breaks my bones
She lifts me up so very high
She is a drug I don't deny
She'll let me go right to the floor
You mean nothing but trouble baby, beat it
You mean nothing but trouble baby, beat it
If you think that you're still my friend
You are wrong, don't you understand
We can't go on like this, love was just a game now
You deceived me like a child so stupid
You deceived me like a child so stupid
I never believed you're a duchess
'Cause you cannot lie when you ought to
But I loved you so, everything was different
I despise you, I despise you
You tumbled all back down
I despise you, I despise you
The queen without a crown
I despise you, I despise you
You tumbled all back down
I despise you, I despise you
The queen without a crown
You mean nothing but trouble baby, beat it
You mean nothing but trouble baby, beat it
If you think that you're still my friend
You are wrong, don't you understand
I like to be on the highway, the highway to your heart
So many ways to go, but I just wanna go my way
Oh, baby, please listen to what I'm gonna say
I like to see your face when you are smiling (Yeah)
Now tell me that you love me and do me no wrong
You got the sexy legs, oooh, baby, I love you so strong
Go now
It's a long way to your heart but I know that I will be
the victor
You cannot always say to me that I must go away
Here I'm lying in a field of weed
the great blue sky is all surrounding me
the rest it gives me is a marvel thing
I see a bird who's cleaning his two wings
fly fly away from all the lawyers
the screaming children playing with their toys
people always running after me
to tell me what to have
what to be
I look upon the landscape and I see
In the distance there stands an old gum tree
I close my eyes and slowly sink away
in this field where I always wanna stay
oh I sleep
yes I sleep
in this field
in this field
in this field
I'm losing my sense for the time
the occupative world is there behind
I wish I could always separate
myself like this but now
waving hands is what I see
you mean too much for me
o, I am sorry that I've gone
but that's already done
did not want, to go away
but I had too do, I could not stay
everytime I think of you
it was the best thing I got do
I set you free at that time
but now I taste the relish of sour wine
starring at the loneley avenue
starring and thinking, thinking of you
you married whith a man
who can't love you like I can
I set you free at that time
Tired of love and tired of bread
She gave up her extant world
Moved from place to place and there
She came into the world of birds
She discovered that there were
Other things inside her brains
At one day the police came in
Went to a jail for girls
After months she was released
Hurried back to the world of birds
Getting stoned and loving girls
Are her only things to do
There she was now drafting girls
Lonely in her world of birds
Getting stoned and loving girls
Are her only things to do
There she was now drafting girls
Lonely in her world of birds
Her world of birds
Her world of birds
I don't want you 'cause your legs are too slender but
you're the girl
That's left you here tonight, yeah here tonight
I find myself like an offender that's stuck on me
Not on your mind, on your mind
You're the victor, you're the victor
Ah, here tonight, yeah, here tonight
You're the victor, you're the victor
Ah, here tonight, yeah, here tonight
Alright
You bore me stiff for you cannot
Pacify, pacify
I wish I could get rid of you 'cause you're poisoning
My mind, my mind
You're the victor, ah, you're the victor
Ah, here tonight, yeah, here tonight
You're the victor, yeah, you're the victor
Ah, here tonight, ah, here tonight
Alright
It's like flogging a dead horse with you 'cause you
have as much
Experience as a child, as a child
So this it was the truth, I'm going
I'm leaving here tonight, yeah, here tonight, oh
You're the victor, yeah, you're the victor
Ah, here tonight, yeah, here tonight (Alright)
You're the victor, you're the victor
Ah, here tonight, yeah, here tonight
It could be a spoonful of diamonds
Could be a spoonful of gold
Just a little spoon of your precious love
Satisfies my soul
Men lies about it
Some of them cries about it
Some of them dies about it
Ev'rything fights about a spoonful
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful
It could be a spoonful of coffee
Could be a spoonful of tea
But just a little spoon of your precious love
Is good enough for me
Men lies about it
Some of them cries about it
Some of them dies about it
Ev'rything fights about a spoonful
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful
It could be a spoonful of water
Saved from the desert sand
But one spoon of them forty fives
Saved you from another man
Men lies about it
Some of them cries about it
Some of them dies about it
Ev'rything fights about a spoonful
