Gary Barlow (born 20 January 1971) is an English singer-songwriter, pianist and record producer. He is frontman and lead vocalist of pop group Take That and the head judge on the The X Factor. Barlow is one of Britain's most successful songwriters. He has had two Number 1 singles and a Number 1 album as a solo artist, and has had sixteen top 5 hits, eleven Number 1 singles and seven Number 1 albums with Take That. He is also a six-time recipient of the Ivor Novello Award and has sold over 45 million records worldwide with Take That.
In Barlow's autobiography, he relates that his love of music began at an early age.
"I was one of those kids that's forever dancing in front of the TV looking at my reflection."
He said he enjoyed watching Top of the Pops on television, and when he was ten years old, he watched an episode of the programme in which Depeche Mode were performing their new single "Just Can't Get Enough". Barlow was mesmerised by the sound and decided he wanted a keyboard for Christmas. For the next few years, he spent most of his spare time teaching himself to play his favourite songs.
Louis Walsh: I've given this a great deal of thought, and, taken all things into consideration. I've decided, you're going... to hear my decision any minute now. My decision is... I'm taking you through to the final... moment when I tell you whether I'm taking you through to the final as quickly as possible. And I have decided, that you're not going to be someone... I decide to decide not to put through without a great deal of thought. You're going home... is one of the things I had considered saying to you. But, I have made my decision, and my decision is... I'm putting you through... the pain of going home, if I decide not to put you through to the final. Which, is what I'm going to decide any minute now! I'm putting you through... hell I know. But I'm afraid it's not good news... it's great news, and the great news is, you're going through to the live final!
Come inside guess tonight your love
Has finally come to an end
Settle down take a while you know
How long a heart takes to mend yes you do
And I know the way you're feeling now
Every problem shared it's a problem solved
In my eyes it's no easy fight
No one promised love was a peaceful ride
Baby, come and cry tears on my shoulder
Girl you can confide in me and forever more
There's no need to hide your tears
Lean on me I'll get you when you fall
Take your time stay awhile
The more you talk the more pain you move you move
Dry your eyes realise that sooner or later you'll lose you lose
Only fools believe there's rules to love
When you lose the lesson is learned
With your heart not your eyes
It's the way our survived not it's hard
Now you'll look back and smile
Baby, come and cry tears on my shoulder
Girl, you can confide in me now and forever more
There's no need to hide your tears
Lean on me I'll get you when you fall
Don't be too hard on yourself
Take it slow when you're not looking for love
That's when healing start to grow
Yes, I'm sure that it won't be long
Baby, to want again
Love is knocking hard at your door (2x)
Tears on my shoulder
Gotta be here forever more
Baby come and cry tears on my shoulder
Girl you can confide in me now and forever more
Forever more
Finding me now cry your tears on my shoulder
Got to be here when you fall
Me and you, you and me, we'll be fighting this love eternally
Don't cry your tears on my shoulder, tears on my shoulder
Out of the water,
feelin' down feelin' cold,
into the fire,
to a world I've never known,
God I'm so tired,
it's been a long long road to here,
but God it's been worth it,
when I feel your body near,
With your arms around me,
love surrounds me,
ever by my side,
with your arms you hold me,
trust and show me,
all I feel tonight,
but all this time that I've been searchin',
all this time that I've been hurtin',
it heals,
when I'm in your arms each night,
Runnin' away from,
all the love I never knew, oh no,
only to fall,
into the arms of someone true, oh yeah,
now I've never noticed,
I've been searchin' for so long,
just waitin' to find,
someone to make me feel this strong,
With your arms around me,
love surrounds me,
ever by my side,
with your arms you hold me,
trust and show me,
all I feel tonight,
but all this time that I've been searchin',
all this time that I've been hurtin',
it heals,
when I'm in your arms each night,
whoa oh ho,
so safe in your arms,
whoa,
With your arms around me,
love surrounds me,
ever by my side,
with your arms you hold me,
trust and show me,
all I feel tonight,
whoa,
ho, oh oh,
yeah,
(so safe in your arms)
forever more,
(so sfe in your arms)
whoa yeah,
So safe in your arms,
so safe in your arms,
so safe in your arms,
so safe in your arms,
Feeling tired, feeling like you're falling behind
This is where life's beauty contester dies
When the palest turn cold and the evening's not high
This is where trouble decides
Your friends, friends you need the most
If a loving start
That's the meaning of a love song
To take the pain away
It's the meaning of a love song
To help you through each day
Walk into this sound of music and memories
So close to your heart
It's strange the way your mood
It swings and it chnges as each song starts
Then the words change fast to slow
While the melody may start to go
And the beat becomes in motion
Into your heart, let the loving start
Turn the music down
Don't let it take over, don't let it decide
If your happy or sad
Together or lonely front or behind
Let the music play its song
And if it is our lives will move on
Since a goal that I believe in
Proves that only to get what you need
It's a feeling
You wanted, the pain away
It's the meaning of a love song
The secret of a love song
Oh move it's love, oh move it's love
To take the pain away
The meaning of a love song
Oh move to love
To take this pain away
(Verse)
Standing here without you I’ve got nothing to say
Seems my guardian angel had the day off today
Someone ahead of me is calling out my name
Without you I can’t stay
(Verse)
Standing at the gates they asked me what did I learn
So glad I got this far and still my soul hasn’t burned
Feels like I’ve run a race but haven’t even moved
Without you it’s so cold
But without you I now know
(Chorus)
Love is for the inspirational
Love is for the supernatural
All this time we spend on earth and just give it away
Love is for the conversational
Love is for the two dimensional
Love is for the common people so give it a try
Cos we like to love we like to love ‘til we cry
Yeah we like to love we like to love ‘til we die
(Verse)
Standing here so bare with no possessions to hide
Not too early or too late just got here in time
What feels so dangerous is this view is so sublime
Without you I’m right here
Without you I can’t hear
(Chorus)
Love is for the inspirational
Love is for the supernatural
All this time we spend on earth and just give it away
Love is for the conversational
Love is for the two dimensional
Love is for the common people so give it a try
Cos we like to love we like to love ‘til we cry
Yeah we like to love we like to love ‘til we die
(Bridge)
Now with retrospect and reason
I can see life’s one true meaning
Love me, Love me
There’s no future in the final act
So I sit looking back to when you loved me
You loved me
We like to love
(Chorus)
Love is for the inspirational
Love is for the supernatural
All this time we spend on earth and just give it away
Love is for the conversational
Love is for the two dimensional
Love is for the common people so give it a try
Cos we like to love we like to love ‘til we cry
Yeah we like to love we like to love ‘til we die
We like to love we like to love ‘til we die

Verse 1
Don't know this feeling inside of me,
But I know it's here for wrong not for right,
Don't know what your heart is telling me,
Everytime I ask you turn out the lights,
Bridge1
I wait around endlessly,
I look for love I can't see,
Each night I watch while you sleep.
Where are you now when I fall?
I'm trapped inside these four walls,
Somebody answer my call.
Chorus
Let's make a new beginning,
Don't be afraid of dreaming,
This love has always been part of our lives,
We'll never stop believing,
We'll never lose the feeling,
It's not too late we can win, no baby don't give in.
Verse 2
I'll take the blame if it's gonna help,
Shoot me down 'cause I'm gonna be proud,
I get the feeling it's someone else,
Though you tell me that's the easy way out,
Bridge 2
Let's close this down make amends,
Our love was always 2 friends
Living in each other lives,
We've worked so hard to be one,
Don't know now what we've become,
Somebody help me be strong,
Chorus
Let's make a new beginning,
Don't be afraid of dreaming,
This love has always been part of our lives,
We'll never stop believing,
We'll never lose the feeling,
It's not too late we can win, no baby don't give in.
Bridge 3
Lets close this down make amends,
Our love was always 2 friends
Living in each others lives, We've worked so hard to be one,
Don't know now what we've become,
Somebody help me be strong,
Chorus
Let's make a new beginning,
Don't be afraid of dreaming,
This love has always been part of our lives,
We'll never stop believing,
We'll never lose the feeling,
It's not too late we can win, no baby don't give in.
Offer my peace to this love
Offer my peace to the world
When you feel life as no meaning
And your love has lost its feeling
Turn your face into sunlight
Come together let us both try
To offer our peace to this love
Like I offer my peace to the world
And when it's complete take the love from my palm
Cause it's the key for us to make love
Breath the air that's making you laugh
Shelter here and watch the sun rise
The longer it takes the more the meaning
The further away the far I believe in
And when we reach that place that we know so well
And it feels like we're gonna, gonna make it hapen
Only time will tell and the faces of the night
Cause it feels like we're gonna make it happen
Only time will tell and the forces of the night
Cause it feels like we're gonna make it happen
Make it happen
umm, stronger,
so strong, oh
Stronger ev'ry day,
stronger ev'ry night,
holdin' out for peace,
now I'm feelin' stronger,
Watchin' as this storm goes by,
I can see a light,
prisoner of my own design,
my hands are firmly tied,
I could just fade away,
live a life unkown,
I could be somewhere else,
but now I'm heading home, oh
Stronger ev'ry day,
stronger ev'ry night,
holdin' out for peace,
now I'm feelin' stronger,
Walkin' from that sheltered world,
with nowhere left to hide,
my naked soul is runnin' free,
my eyes are open wide, (eyes are open)
searchin' for the higher ground,
to make my life complete,
it's only when you climb that mountain,
the world is at your feet, oh
Stronger ev'ry day,
stronger ev'ry night,
holdin' out for peace,
but ready now to fight, oh,
life owes me nothin',
I have tasted ev'rythin',
but I can't wait much longer,
now I'm feelin' stronger,
(stronger each day)
(stronger each night)

(I'm feelin' stronger,

We're all here for a reason,

reach for every corner of this world,
our message has so much emotional feelin',
stand in turn,

life we hold in our hands,

So many ways
It's never been easy, no
Making time for love
It's never been easy finding someone you can trust
In the past I spent each night fulfilling
Someone else's dreams
Then I came face to face with you
And I have everything I need
Just giving you luv luv luv
Luv luv luv
Makes me feel alive
I'm giving to you change my life in so many ways
I'm giving to you wash and clean me up my crazy days
I'm so far from the valley
When I seemed I stoop so low
Now I am high on the mountain
Making trust to gain controt
Just giving you luv luv luv
Luv luv luv
Makes me feel alive
Gaining my reply
I give you my luv luv luv
Luv luv luv
Till the day I die, till the day that I die
Oh yeah

Concentrating, dedicating all my life to you
Contemplating, re-arranging where I'm going to
Wherever you go I will go and that's my way to prove
To prove that my love is true
Hey hey
Yeah yeah
Giving you love
I give you my love
I knew you changed my life in many ways
I knew you cleaned me up my crazy days
Now I feel like I've nothing left to say
Prove that my love is true
Giving you love
Love it has so many beautiful faces
Sharing lives and sharing days
My love it had so many empty spaces
I'm sharing a memory now I hope that's how it stays
Now I'm deep inside love and still breathing
She is holding my heart in her hand
I'm the closest I've been to believing
This could be love forever
All throughout my life the reasons I've demanded
But how can I reason with the reason I'm a man
In a minute I'm needing to hold her
In an hour I'm cold, cold as stone
When she leaves it gets harder and harder to face life alone
Now my dreams are filled with times when we're together
Guess what I need from her is forever love
I guess now it's time
For me to give up
I feel it's time
Got a picture of you beside me
Got your lipstick mark
Still on your coffee cup
Got a fist of pure emotion
Got a head of shattered dreams
Gotta leave it,
Gotta leave it
All behind now
Whatever I said,
Whatever I did I didn't mean it
I just want you back for good
Whenever I'm wrong
Just tell me the song and I'll sing it
You'll be right and understood
I want you back for good
Unaware but underlined
I figured out this story
It wasn't good
But in the corner of my mind
I celebrated glory
But that was not to be
In the twist of separation
You excelled at being free
Can't you find
A little room inside for me
Whatever I said,
Whatever I did I didn't mean it
I just want you back for good
Whenever I'm wrong
Just tell me the song and I'll sing it
You'll be right and understood
I want you back for good
And we'll be together,
This time is forever
We'll be fighting
And forever we will be
So complete in our love
We will never be uncovered again
Whatever I said,
Whatever I did I didn't mean it
I just want you back for good
Whenever I'm wrong
Just tell me the song and I'll sing it
You'll be right and understood
I want you back for good
I guess that now it's time
hey,
hoh,
he-e-e-ey,
Lay down for love,
lay down,
yeah,
I was alone,
with you on my mind,
look at me now,
you've left me behind,
you're all that matters,
you are my life,
you are the one that should be here by my side,
(you are my lover)
yes you are,
you should be my friend,
don't you think we've got some talkin' to do?
Only love depends on you,
Don't tell me it's over,
'cos it's not over yet, no,
don't tell me you love me when you're tryin' 'a throw this love away,
don't throw this love away,
don't say that I changed girl,
because change is not enough, no,
don't tell me it's over,
when you know that we can fight,
you know, you gotta lay down for love,
you gotta lay down for love,
oh yeah,
So where is your kiss?
Where is your touch?
The taste of your lips,
I miss them so much,
you said you'd be back soon,
you said you'd be here,
you seem to run everytime love comes near,
(remember when we were lovers?)
Yes I do,
remember when we were friends, ooh oooh?
Don't you think we've got some talkin' to do?
In the end it's up to you,
(I got to talk to you!)
Don't tell me it's over,
'cos it's not over yet, no,
don't tell me you love me when you're tryin' 'a throw this love away,
don't throw this love away,
don't say that I changed girl,
because change is not enough, no,
don't tell me it's over when you know that we can fight it,
you know, you gotta lay down for love,
(lay down, lay down)
lay down for me, lay down for you,
lay down for everything you do,
'cos you know it's right,
you know it's time,
to love me for the rest of your life,
(love me for the rest of your life)
(even when you got good love you don't need it)

Close your eyes, but don't forget,
What you have heard
A man who's trying to say three words,
Words that make you scared.
(Chorus)
A million love songs later,
And here I am trying to tell you that I can
A million love songs later, and here I am, here I am
A million love songs later, and here I am.
Look into the future now,
this is what I see,
A million chances pass me by
A million chances to hold you
Take me back, take me back,
To where I used to be
Hide away from all my truths
Through the light I see.
(Chorus)
A million love songs later,
And here I am trying to tell you that I can
A million love songs later, and here I am,
Just for jou girl
A million love songs later, here I am.
Feel for you babe, feel for you baby
(Chorus)
A million love songs later

I thought that you would be the one,
to share my life,
I thought that you would be the one,
to stand here by my side,
I thought that you would be the lover,
I've always dreamed of,
I thought that you would be the one,
to face and fight any storm,
What a fool I've been,
nothing's quite the way it seems,
all I've lost is all I had,
all I had I never found,
So walk right out of my life,
enjoy your independence and freedom,
how can you still be proud,
when you've broken you vow?
Just turn away don't look back,
the love you promised taught me a lesson,
I know I'll survive,
after you have walked out of my life,
out of my life,
I can't believe behind your smile,
that there lived a lie,
I can't believe inside your heart,
our love had already died,
I can't believe that I've been chasing something,
I'll never see,
I can't believe I've been the reason,
for your choice to be free,
How I've lost my way,
over night feelings change,
and after all this time you tell me,
you never felt the same way,
So walk right out of my life,
enjoy your independence and freedom,
how can you still be proud,
when you've broken your vow?
Just turn away don't look back,
the love you promised taught me a lesson,
I know I'll survive,
after you have walked out of my life,
and out of my arms each night,
there's no meaning now to all,
that I feel, inside,
don't tell me your love is true,
now my broken heart won't let me believe in you no,
So walk right out of my life,
enjoy your independence and freedom,
how can you still be proud,
when you've broken your vow?
Just turn away don't look back,
the love you promised taught me a lesson,
I know I'll survive,
after you have walked of my life,
baby, how can you still be proud,
when you've broken your vow?
Just turn away don't look back,
the love you promised taught me a lesson,
I know I'll survive,
after you have walked out of my life,
walked out of my life,
baby, whooo
walking out of my life,
walking out walking out of my life,
walked out of my life,
walking out of my life,
My life is extraordinary bare
i fought the fear and chased the pain
like nerd in my brain
my life doesn't need to be explained
just swerve in the lane
i chose to walk the line as one
like a jungle cat on the run
sometimes i live upon my island
cut off from emotion and its brain
(ad libs) ohh, yuhyuh that's when i'm tempted by the waters
the waters that i can take me far away
(ad libs) oh yah yah oh yah yah
So i'll just keep on walking down this open road
and before you know it, i'll score a goal
hoping someone somewhere sees me
like thierry my boy henry or
perhaps like a giant bumble bee
so i'll just keep on walking down this open road
talking to the man who knows me
like a fire bee
yes he knows me, the man is me
oh yuhyuh, yuhyuh! oh! bzzzzzz
My life was once full of people's smiley faces
in an oven with pizza and lamb cutlets
like when i was a boy with paper traces
brought to me by love which isn't strange
just peculiar and grange
oh my life had the goodness of blue waters
a day's a day for all i used to say
even more so for people who are gay
sometimes i can sit and cry my heart out
like a big girl's blouse,
drowning in my automatic ways
oh, that's when i am tempted by the waters
like a sheeplet, tossed upon the ocean (copyright this line to david hasselhoff)
then it gets out, swimming in the potion!
waters that can take me far away in a boat
so i'll just keep on walking down this open road
oh yuhyuh
hoping someone somewhere needs me
so i'll just keep on walking down this open road
oh yuhyuh
talking to the man who knows chun li
yes he knows chun li, the man is firebee, firebee,
oh firebee yuhyuh doov kew, oh yuhyuhyuhyuh,
hoona flame, yoga fire, yutap urkya, shoryookin
oh yuhyuh!
My life is now full of people's faces
within the light of change i pulled away
in my zonda, lambo and merc sl that's gay
my life shows that no man is a cacti (plural)oh yuhyuhyuh
i've exchanged the piece of life i cut away
like a birthday cake (spiderman one)
now you won't see me talking down that open road
i've found someone now who needs me
no you won't see me walking down that open road
i've found at last the man who knows me
yes he knows me and the man was me
the man was me
Oh yuhyuhyuhyuh (beautifal ad libs)
oh yuhyuhyuhyuh oh yuhyuhyuhyuh
oh yuhyuhyuhyuh
You could've kissed me, like this wasn't gonna last
Kept me from saying, something I'll never take back
You could've held me like there was no chance
Of me waking up where I am
You could've stopped short of every dream I've ever had
So help me girl, you've gone too far
It's way too late, to save my heart
The way it feels, each time we touch
I know I've never been so loved
And I can't help myself
So help me girl
Oh yeah
You gotta help me girl
You had to be there until the sun came up
Making last night feel like a vision of things yet to come
You just had to hold me like nobody else
Now look what you've gone and done
You had to love me, till I just can't get enough
Please, help me girl...
So help me girl, you've gone too far
It's way too late, to save my heart
The way it feels, each time we touch
I know I've never been so loved
And I can't help myself
So help me girl you've gone too far
It's way too late, to save my heart
The way it feels, each time we touch
I know I've never been so loved
And I can't help myself...
No, baby
I can't help myself...
I can't help myself...
So help... girl.
You've got to help me girl.
I'm falling down... (falling, falling, falling)
I'm falling down... (You've got me falling down!)
Cause I'm falling down... (You've got me falling down!)
Falling...(You've got me falling down!)
Ohhhh yeahh
I found the road to nowhere
The greener grass it turned to stone
Your shadowed face shines a rainbow now
The sign I found did point it home
Never knew that I'd miss you this way
Never knew that pain could survive here inside
Never knew that I'd miss you this much
I'm reaching out to touch
I'm calling out for love
I only walked to breathe again
I felt the walls were falling down on me
Caught a busy train to freedom
Now here I stand in this lonely town
Never knew that I'd miss you this way
I never knew that pain could survive here inside
Never knew that I'd miss you this much
I'm reaching out to touch
I'm calling out for love
And when stars fill the sky
It takes me back to the time
When we live for only love
Never knew that I'd miss you this way
Never knew that I'd miss you this way
I never knew that pain could survive here inside
Never knew that I'd miss you this much
And I'm reaching out to touch
And I'm calling baby calling
Ohhh... for your love
You took our love and tore it apart,
shattered each and every corner of our hearts,
walked away,
only to find,
the path that we had taken,
pointed back in time,
With open arms, we started again,
never knowing every day what lied ahead,
taking the time, the time to rediscover,
all that brought the two of us together,
So tell me why,
nothing feels the same,
nothing feels the same,
as it did back then,
I'm asking why,
nothing feels the same,
why's it all like a dream you can't remember,
like a hope you can't surrender,
tell me why,
nothing feels the same,
nothing feels the same,
whoa oh oh,
We figured all we had was worth a try,
we looked for words all day and talked all night,
face to face, all our questions answered,
reading in what we'd always just took for granted,
Now it's hard to see,
the days when love was natural,
it's so hard to see,
the way we're both refusing now,
to ask the question why,
Nothing feels the same,
nothing feels the same,
as it did back then,
I'm asking why,
nothing feels the same,
why's it all like a dream you can't remember,
like a hope you can't surrender,
tell me why,
nothing feels the same,
nothing feels the same,
whoa,
It seems impossible,
to be trying to solve this puzzle in a day,
whoa,
our fight has just begun,
and I'll be fighting baby,
fighting till the end,
until I find the answer why,
Nothing feels the same,
nothing feels the same,
as it did back then,
I'm asking why,
nothing feels the same,
why's it all like a dream you can't remember,
like a hope you can't surrender,
tell me why,
nothing feels the same...
When I first saw your face
Knew that I could not hesitate
You said, baby don't go too fast
If we do then it may not last
Time went on and I waited for you
I didn't know what else I could do
(What else should I do)
I thought that we'd always be together
You said, hold on, it just gets better
(Holding on forever
Holding on...)
And I believed you
I kept holding on
(Holding on forever
Holding on...)
You think that I can never leave you
You think I'm not that strong
You're wrong
Love won't wait (Love won't wait)
Forever and a day (Love won't wait)
Love must live in the here and now
Don't ask me how I know
So here I am with my heart on my sleeve
You said, baby put your trust in me
But I have come to the end of the line
And you've wasted up all of my precious time
Wanted to be something special to you
Everybody's somebody's fool
Won't be a fool no, you've got me all wrong
(You've got me all wrong)
You don't know what you have
Till it's gone
And I believed you
I kept holding on
(Holding on forever
Holding on...)
You think that I can never leave you
You think I'm not that strong
You're wrong
Love won't wait (Love won't wait)
Forever and a day (Love won't wait)
Love must live in the here and now
Don't ask me how I know
Love takes time (Love takes time)
But you've been takin' too long
(Take too long)
Time never waited for anyone
Don't wait too long
Or I'll be gone
Don't Wait too long
I'll be gone
I'll be gone
(Oh there) There wasn't anything
That I wouldn't do
(And you) You led me on
You even said, I love you
(I love you, baby)
How can we go on
When it's tearin' us apart
(How can we love)
Are you going to break my heart
'Cause I believed you
Love won't wait (Love won't wait)
Forever and a day (Love won't wait)
Love must live in the here and now
Don't ask me how I know
Love takes time (Love takes time)
But you've been takin' too long
(Take too long)
Time never waited for anyone
Don't wait too long
Or I'll be gone
(Love won't wait)
How much longer can I wait for you
(Don't let this love just pass by us)
(It's not too late, you must choose)
(Love is so hard to find)
(And so easy to lose)
My commitment, my commitment is to live to love you
I will hold you I will show you
You can put your faith in me

Ome words they can't be spoken only sung

(Verse)
To think that we once shared a home
To think that we once had a goal
And I was once inside your heart
Oh and now this end it means a start
(Pre-Chorus 1)
So what’s love like in the present tense?
How did I rate?
How can I defend?
It hurts too much for me to comprehend
I lose you all over again
(Chorus 1)
Is he Mr. Incredible, Mr Desirable
Mr Emotional, always devotional
Mr and Mrs who always blow kisses
Their children are children who crave possibilities
Ain’t life so cruel when you’re just not good enough?
Ain’t life so cruel when there’s someone else she loves?
(Verse)
To think that you now share a bed
Oh to think my piece was never said
Oh we run but never got too far
Oh we were in the race but never left the start
(Pre-Chorus 2)
So what’s love like in the present tense
Was there any change, how much did you spend?
You make love kissing someone else’s face
The honeymoon starts everyday
(Chorus 2)
Is he Mr. Dependable, Mr Commendable
Never mucks up like a Mr. Expendable
Mr and Mrs he washes the dishes
But gives you the life of finances unlimited
Ain’t life so cruel when you’re just not good enough?
Ain’t life so cruel when there’s someone else she loves?
(Verse)
There’s no time to be happy
Too much to be sad
Hope that our time was the best that you had
Though everything seems such a blur we did love
And everything that you did wrong I forgot
(Verse)
So what’s love like sitting on the fence
D’you ever look back, to how we were then
It hurts so much for you to lose my name
I’d lose you all over again
(Chorus 3)
Is he Mr Exceptional, Mr Professional
Never in doubt through and through heterosexual
Love’s never fast and he always comes last
He’s the best seller a relationship enthusiast
Mr Incredible, Mr Desirable, Mr Emotional
Always devotional
Mr and Mrs who always blow kisses
Their children are children who crave possibilities
Ain’t life so cruel when you’re just not good enough?
Ain’t life so cruel when there’s someone else she loves?
(Verse)
It’s a true sign of a soldier
Taking care of the hearts around us
And the whole world loves a hero
A leader and a shoulder to cry on
(Pre-Chorus)
That’s what you are to me
Everyone around can see yeah
(Chorus)
When we’re face to face oh I
When the music plays oh I
Standing side by side
Put the past behind us
No one can take your place
When we’re face to face
(Verse)
You can measure the strength of a human
By the weight of the love around them
One sweet light in the darkness
Guided us all like a pilot
(Pre-Chorus)
That’s that you are to me
Everyone around believes yeah
(Chorus)
When we’re face to face oh I
When the music plays oh I
Standing side by side
Put the past behind us
No one can take your place
When we’re face to face
(Bridge)
When you live your life with a passion
Taking nothing for granted
You made me believe if you give love, you will find it
You, you are the world to me yeah
A heart as wide as the ocean
You aim to climb every mountain
And the unknown you understand it
Yea, you do
(Chorus x2)
When we’re face to face oh I
When the music plays oh I
Standing side by side
Put the past behind us
No one can take your place
When we’re face to face
You're everything I ever wanted and more
You're the girl that I've needed for so long
I think I'm old enough to know now
The reason I feel the way I do now
In my own words this love is so meant to be
It's in your eyes each time you're listening to me
I'm saying things I've never said before
And so naturally you're coming back for more
There's a reason why this love is changing my life
You're everything I ever wanted and more
You're in my mind, in my heart, in my soul
Each time I think about reason, my work, losing time
I just think about you and leave responsibility behind
And lead me back to you
My day it opens with your head on my shoulder
I love to kiss, touch, I love to hold ya
Our time it moves so fast
Every hour's a second till at last
We will sleep one night and that night is forever
You're everything I ever wanted and more
You're in my mind, in my heart, in my soul
Each time I think about reason, my work, losing time
I just think about you and leave responsibility behind
Everything, everything I want
Ooooo oh yeah
You mean everything and more to me
There's a reason why this love is changing my life
Cause you're everything I ever wanted and more
You're in my mind, in my heart, in my soul
Each time I think about reason, my work, losing time
I just think about you
Cause you're all I ever need
All I ever wanted and more
All I need
You're in my mind in my heart in my soul (you're everything)
And each time I think about reason, my work, losing time
I just think about you
(Verse)
It’s a gift, it’s a blessing
An all-white wedding, a peaceful morning in June
It’s a crown
It’s a calling
A rain shower falling, a new born yawning that’s new
(Verse)
It’s a smile, it’s a space
It’s a familiar place
It’s a long embrace with someone you love
It’s a bright sleepy thought
It’s a standing applause
It’s a meaningful cause that could save us all
(Pre-Chorus)
This love’s got stronger with time
And this love’s reciprocal
We’ve had it all and have it all to find
(Chorus)
I love you more than life
I love you more than life
And what we are is written in these lines
I love you more than life
More than life
(Verse)
It’s a white empty shore
It’s a New Year’s roar
It’s a curtain call on the greatest show
It’s the start of a new day
It’s getting your own way
It’s your child’s 1st birthday
Now get some sleep
(Verse)
It’s that feeling in your heart
It’s one drink too far
It’s a brand new car, you can drive yourself
It’s when visitors have gone
It’s your favorite song
It’s a sing-along so let’s sing along
(Pre-Chorus)
This love’s got stronger with time
And this love’s reciprocal
We’ve had it all and have it all to find
(Chorus)
I love you more than life
I love you more than life
And what we are is written in these lines
I love you more than life
More than life
(Verse)
It’s a fun ride fair
It’s the wind in your hair
It’s the oldest chair that’s so comfortable
(Bridge)
It’s a light, it’s a healing
That Friday feeling
The last journey home
Wanna let the whole world know
(Chorus)
I love you more than life
I love you more than life
And what we are is written in these lines
I love you more than life
More than life
What you don't know,
Is all I know.
How can I make sure that I fool everyone?
Gonna wear a suit and tie and put my bravest face on.
And it's far too deep to show you this wound.
No it wont heal, no time soon.
Nobody knows what I'm going through.
I'm dying inside.
Who know's what I'm thinking, what I'm trying to hide?
Here I'm dying all night
I'm breathing, but I can't feel life.
I'm smiling, but I'm dying inside.
How can I make sure that I'm invisible?
I find just a simple phrase that may say it all.
Cause it's far too soon and not the right time
(Verse)
A strip of sunlight, a moment in time
A change of direction
Your life in a face, your words on a page
Now your heart needs no protection
(Verse)
In one conversation I saw what I’d always believed in
In just a few words I could tell it would hurt
To leave you without knowing when I might see you again
So again I depend on the unknown
(Chorus)
I’ve travelled six thousand miles thirty thousand feet just to see you
Where is the danger?
I have my return ticket ready with nothing to lose
Has time taken leave of our senses
Or has sense taken leave of our time
If all of my life has been leading to this rendezvous
Let it happen on 6th Avenue
(Verse)
I’ve always lived life in search of surprise
I keep my eyes open
What you can’t control you can’t leave alone
So don’t choose be chosen
(Verse)
Now your tongue can’t say the questions cos you know the answers
In just a few words I could tell it would hurt
To leave you without knowing when I might see you again
(Chorus)
I’ve travelled six thousand miles thirty thousand feet just to see you
Where is the danger?
I have my return ticket ready with nothing to lose
Has time taken leave of our senses
Or has sense taken leave of our time
If all of my life has been leading to this rendezvous
Let it happen on 6th Avenue
(Bridge)
On any other day I’d have taken Broadway
In a New York minute
To think I could have missed you
(Chorus x2)
I’ve travelled six thousand miles thirty thousand feet just to see you
Where is the danger?
I have my return ticket ready with nothing to lose
Has time taken leave of our senses
Or has sense taken leave of our time
If all of my life has been leading to this rendezvous
Let it happen on 6th Avenue
(Verse)
She sleeps better with the TV on
She came in dark but she goes out blonde
Her mother slept with a Rolling Stone
Her lights are on but she’s never at home
She’s never at home
(Chorus)
She’s an actress tryna’ learn the art
Actress searching for a part
If you ask her, ask her what she’s in
And watch her act again
(Verse)
Still trying to figure out who she is
Sometimes she’s mine but she’s always his
She made a movie once for fifty bucks
You can still get it if you know where to look
If you know where to look
(Chorus)
She’s an actress tryna’ learn the art
Actress searching for a part
If you ask her, ask her what she’s in
And watch her act again
(Verse)
All lies, all lies
Bad breaks and broken minds
Old words of make believe
One more honey just for me
(Bridge)
(Actress…)
Tryna’ find a line
(Actress…)
Tryna’ hold back time
(Ask her…)
Ask her what she’s in
And watch her act again
(Verse)
She leaves the doorway right behind her
Her whole world is a stage
She needs to feel your eyes upon her
As she dances in a cage
The music’s pumping louder
As her mind heads to the stars
She gets clarity of thought in the back of someone else’s car
(Chorus)
She’s an actress tryna’ learn the art
Actress searching for a part
If you ask her, ask her what she’s in
And watch her act again
She’s an actress…
If you ask her, ask her what she’s in
And watch her act again
She’s an actress…
(Verse)
Hatches matches then dispatches
All in the embers of my ashes
Thy will was done
Oh wipe that worry from your face
You’ll die when you see my new face but
Do the time
You’re in for life
(Chorus 1)
Oh my friends I hear you sing
The Lord’s my shepherd really what a song to sing
Why bring me flowers when you know that I can’t smell a thing?
For the folks I leave behind
I’m in heaven well imagine my surprise
I’m really flattered that you came here to remember
And look I made the news again
In Requiem, with all my friends
(Verse)
There is no shame here, I feel no loss
The pawn and king both in the same box
And no one famous
Please don’t panic
It looks so tragic
All switching seats on the Titanic
I’m sad to go
Hope you enjoy the show
(Chorus 2)
Oh my friends I hear you say
A lot of lovely things about me here today
I’m glad you didn’t let the truth get in the way
To all my friends I leave behind
They put a spread on so let’s all go back to mine
I really love it that you came here to remember
And look we made the news at ten
In Requiem with all my friends
(Bridge)
This dyin’ ain’t much of a living no no
Will we want what we’re given heaven knows
(Chorus 1)
Oh my friends I hear you sing
The Lord’s my shepherd really what a song to sing
Why bring me flowers when you know that I can’t smell a thing?
For the folks I leave behind
I’m in heaven well imagine my surprise
I’m really flattered that you came here to remember
And look I made the news again
In Requiem, with all my friends
With all my friends
With all my friends
With all my friends
(Verse)
Small town girls live life sweetly
They don’t waste time dreaming of opportunity
Small town girls learn quickly
They live for who they are not who they wanna be
(Pre-Chorus)
Upon the greenest grass they laugh and grow
The man who makes the boundaries no one knows
(Chorus)
Small town girls they make the whole world turn
Don’t get their fingers burned quite as easy as the rest, oh oh
Small town girls they make my heart collapse
Such a shame the Bible never said that
The foundations of the world, they are built on small town girls
(Verse)
Small town girls stop at nothing
They take no prisoners, never try small talking
And what they have is quite unique
Their hearts are big enough to wear on their sleeves
(Pre-Chorus)
Upon the greenest grass they laugh and grow
The man who makes the boundaries no one knows
(Chorus)
Small town girls they make the whole world turn
Don’t get their fingers burned quite as easy as the rest, oh oh
Small town girls they make my heart collapse
Such a shame the Bible never said that
The foundations of the world, they are built on small town girls
(Bridge)
Everybody knows they’re quite a chase
When everybody looks they hide their face
Small town girls are innocent
With rosy cheeks and grassy knees their life is heaven sent
Most girls marry young and have some kids
But who am I to tell them what they’ve missed
(Chorus)
Small town girls they make the whole world turn
Don’t get their fingers burned quite as easy as the rest, oh oh
Small town girls they make my heart collapse
Such a shame the Bible never said that
The foundations of the world, they are built on small town girls
Small town girls
(Verse)
This house, built from stone
Bricks and mortar
Love and hope
(Verse)
Voices, children cry
Parents teach us
Wrong from right
(Pre-Chorus 1)
What makes your heart ache?
What makes us thankful for every day?
It’s always the brightest light
That takes you home each night
(Chorus)
Open the doors and windows
Whole world inside these four walls
More than a building
Floor to the ceiling
A picture of love
That’s this house
That’s this house
That’s this house
(Verse)
Peaceful, home sweet home
Stuff needs fixing but nothing’s broke
Full hearts, passing time
So glad this place is
Yours and mine
(Pre-Chorus 2)
What makes you soul warm?
What makes us be the people we’ve become?
It’s always the brightest light
That takes you home each night
(Chorus x2)
Open the doors and windows
Whole world inside these four walls
More than a building
Floor to the ceiling
A picture of love
That’s this house
(Verse)
These walls
Full of heart
Brothers, sisters
Play their part
(Verse)
From innocence to teenage fights
Christenings, weddings
This is life
This is life yea
Oh this house
This is life yea
(Chorus)
Open the doors and windows
Whole world inside these four walls
More than a building
Floor to the ceiling
A picture of love
That’s this house
That’s this house
That’s this house
That’s this house
That’s this house
Do you sometimes feel your life is leaving you behind?
With one eye closed, half a world unknown
You want to wave for help but both your hands are tied
You want to start again but you’re just too scared
So if you wanna find out, just go ahead and try now
If the thought is terrifying
The risk is really frightening
And your only fear is falling
You should leave without a warning and…
(Chorus – part 1)
Jump, fly
Let your feet leave the ground, step into the sky and…
Jump, high
If you want a better view, then another life is calling you to
(Chorus – part 2)
Go ahead and try now
Or how you gonna find out
If life has got predictable
Go on do something wonderful
The first step is the hardest
You’ll be safe without a harness so jump
Jump…
You never stand to win if you’re not in the race
When voices cheer, you’ll be far from here
And maybe once or twice you’ll fall flat on your face
But when you move on you’ll be twice as strong
Go out on a limb now
Throw caution to the wind now
If the thought is terrifying
The risk is really frightening
And your only fear is falling
You should leave without a warning and…
(Chorus – part 1)
Jump, fly
Let your feet leave the ground, step into the sky and…
Jump, high
If you want a better view, then another life is calling you to
(Chorus – part 2)
Go ahead and try now
Or how you gonna find out
If life has got predictable
Go on do something wonderful
The first step is the hardest
You’ll be safe without a harness so jump
Jump…
Make up your mind
You’ll be just in time
Jump, Jump
If the thought is terrifying
The risk is really frightening
There’s no need to play it safe
Just take a leap and fall
You should leave without a warning and…
(Chorus – part 1)
Jump, fly
Let your feet leave the ground, step into the sky and…
Jump, high
If you want a better view, then another life is calling you to
(Chorus – part 2)
Go ahead and try now
Or how you gonna find out
If life has got predictable
Go on do something wonderful
The first step is the hardest
You’ll be safe without a harness so jump
Jump…
Jump…
You've got me thinkin' 'bout tomorrow,
although I'm livin' in today,
you've got me wishin' I lived in another world,
though in my home I wanna stay,
You're tellin' me you understand,
but you don't really know now who I am,
or what I do,
you're tellin' me we'll work it out,
then all you do is kick and scream and shout,
what more can I say,
Fast car take me home,
to the place where I can breathe where I feel strong,
fast car take me back,
to the place where I'm free at last,
so free at last,
heh,
yeah eh eh heh,
oooh ooh ohh,
Why did I let you come this far,
why did I let you tear me down, baby,
I should have known it from the start, I didn't,
you turned a page without a sound,
You're tellin' me I've got to learn,
but you're love has so many twists and turns,
I can't find my way,
you're tellin' me it's all a shame,
but now I feel this soul has got no name,
and to you t's all a game,
Fast car take me home,
to the place where I can breathe where I feel strong,
fast car take me back,
to the place where I'm free at last,
so free at last,
at last yeah,
ooh hooo,
You're tellin' me it's all a shame,
but now I feel this soul has got no name,
and to you it's all a game,
Fast car take me home,
to the place where I can breathe where I feel strong,
fast car take me back,
to the place where I'm free at last (so free at last baby)
Fast car take me home,
to the place where I can breathe where I feel strong,
fast car take me back,
to the place where I'm free at last,
so free at last
Watching as this storm goes by I can see a light,
A prisoner of my own design my hands are firmly tied,
I could just fade away and live a life unknown,
I could be somewhere else but now I'm headed home
Stronger every day,
Stronger every night,
I'm holding out for peace,
But ready now to fight,
Life owes me nothing,
I have tasted everything,
But I can't wait much longer now I'm feeling stronger
Walking from that sheltered world
With nowhere left to hide,
My naked soul is running free, my eyes are open wide,
I'm searching for a higher ground to make myself complete,
It's only when you climb that mountain the world is at your feet
Stronger every day,
Stronger every night,
I'm holding out for peace,
But ready now to fight,
Life owes me nothing,
I have tasted everything,
But I can't wait much longer now I'm feeling stronger
Stronger now,
I'm stronger now,
I'm feeling stronger every single day
Stronger every day,
Stronger every night,
I'm holding out for peace,
But ready now to fight,
Life owes me nothing,
I have tasted everything,
But I can't wait much longer now I'm feeling stronger
Oh oh
I know you're still hurting
And you'll never forget
Don't wear your pain no no
Don't wear your regret
You've escaped from the lies that he sold you
You've escaped from deceit
Stood alone until finally I've found you
Believe if you give love
You'll only receive
Don't need a reason to love me
Don't need a reason to care
When you wake in the morning
You'll find I'll always be there
Don't need a reason to want me
You don't need a reason to stay
Just believe in yourself
And you'll find love somewhere out there
I can see now you're thinking
If I'll do the same
If I'll give you all of my heart
Then take it away
You're strong enough to follow,
A black time and still breathe yeah
It's time you unchained from the past
All that I am is everything you see
Don't need a reason to love me
Don't need a reason to care
When you wake in the morning
You'll find I'll always be there
Don't need a reason to want me
Don't need a reason to stay
Just believe in yourself
And you'll find love somewhere out there
So hard to believe
You're the same girl
That you used to be
It's painful to see
You're still hurting
When all you need now
Is the love that lies inside me - me - me
Don't need a reason to love me
You don't need a reason to care
When you wake in the morning
You'll find I'll always be there - oh yeah
Don't need a reason to want me
Don't need a reason to stay
Just believe in yourself
And you'll find love somewhere out there
Somewhere out there...
oooh,
whoa oh ho,
oooh,
whoa ho yeah,
mmmmm,
Take a look,
at all we have,
I believe,
it still could last,
we've always found our way before,
I've never believed in closing doors,
I think the answer is deep in our hearts,
you think the answer is being apart,
So before you turn away from me,
before your heart is running free,
there's a million reasons you should stay,
look around you baby now,
before you turn away,
you turn away,
Let me ask,
before you choose,
is what you'd gain,
more than you'd lose,
we've worked so hard to get this far,
only to find another start,
I think the answer is still unkown,
you think the answer is being alone,
So before you turn away from me,
before your heart is running free,
there's a million reasons you should stay,
look around you baby now,
before you turn away,
whoooo hoooo,
you're turning away,
whoa ho yeah,
baby,
I think the answer is deep in our hearts,
you think the answer is being apart,
whooo ooh,
So before you turn away from me,
before your heart is running free,
there's a million reasons you should stay,
look around you baby now,
before you turn away,
so before you turn away from me,
I'm always thinkin' about you
I wonder if you can tell
These things I'm feelin' inside me
I keep them all to myself
Scared to show my true emotions
Don't wanna love alone
Because I fall, so deep
You'll never know
How far I go
And I know why
Hearts beat, desperately
I fall so deep
yeah I fall so deep,
Some people think love is foolish
While others think it's a game
I think that love is a fire
I'm burnin' up in your flame
I'm so lost in my emotions
Wanting you ever more, ooh ooh
Because I fall, so deep
You'll never know
How far I go
And I know why
Hearts beat, desperately
I fall so deep
I fall so deep
I fall so deep
I fall so deep
And I've come so close to the part
Where I reveal my heart to you
But I lose my nerve, can't find the words
To tell that it's true
I fall so deep
I fall, so deep
You'll never know
How far I go
And I know why
Hearts beat, oh so desperately
I fall so deep
I fall, so deep
You'll never know (never know)
How far I go (you'll never know)
And I know why
Hearts beat, desperately
I fall so deep
I'm always thinkin' about you (I fall so deep)
I wonder if you can tell (and I fall so deep)
These things I'm feelin' inside me (I fall so deep)
Mmmmm
Yeah, gonna make love tonight
Hang on in there baby
Mm mm ohhhh
We can't help but make it
We're gonna make love tonight
Whoaaaohh
Wooo!
Now that we've caressed
A kiss so warm and tender
I can't wait 'til we've reached
That sweet moment of surrender
Ohh we'll hear the thunder roar
Feel the lightening strike
At a point we both decided to meet
At the same time tonight
Hang on in there baby
Hang on in there darling
I'm gonna give you more
Than you ever dreamed possible
Don't be afraid baby, no way
Sweet virgin of the world, yeah
We can't help but make it (we can't help but make it)
Because there's true love between us girl
Ohh so let us touch that cloud
Everyone dreams of
Oh we're almost there darling
We're truly making love
Hang on in there baby
Please don't let me down
Please don't destroy
This new joy we've found
Ohh ohh
What's that now baby
What's that you say
Something's eating at you
And it's about to get away
Don't fight it baby you'd better open up the door
'Cause that's the key to freedom that we've both been working for
Let it go baby, let it go honey
Ohhh right there, right there
Baby don't you move it anywhere
Go baby, let it go baby
Let it go honey, oh honey
Oh right there, right there
Baby don't you move it
Don't you dare
Hang on in there baby
Hang on in there darling
I'm gonna give you more
Than you ever dreamed possible
Hang on in there baby
Please don't let me down
Please don't distroy
This new joy we've found
Hang on in there baby
Hang on in there darling (hang on in there darling)
I'm gonna give you more (gonna give you more)
Than you ever dreamed possible
Hang on in there baby (yeah)
Please don't let me down
Please don't distroy
This new joy we've found
Hang on in there baby
Hang on in there darling (hang on in there baby)
I'm gonna give you more (hang on in there baby)
Than you ever dreamed possible
Hang on in there baby (yeah)
Please don't let me down
Please don't distroy
From 'open road' album.
I have been living
I have been fooled
I have been many things but I've always been in love with you
I have been travelling
Eating life's food
Though I've been far away
I have still remained in love with you
I've been given a chance to share my music with the world
Soon my song will be over
'till I sing the song of love
For me and you
I've been sharing with the world my songs of love
Well baby I have been learning
I have been used
I have been sheltering within this plenty world of love I share with you
I've been given the answer
I've been given words of love
I've been given the reason
And the reason I've been sharing with the world
I've been sharing with the world my songs of love
That's why I'll always be in love
I will always be in love
I will always be in love with you
Always be in love
I will always be in love
I know it's life
When you can't seem to catch someone's eye
I'm sure I'll get it right
Giving it time in the hope she'll be mine
Maybe there's already love by her side
Maybe she longs for one night
It's a million to one she will want me
It's a chance of invitation or a simple goodbye
It's a million to one she will love me for the rest of her life
I caught a glance
That was the first time
Will it be the last?
I have not much yet
Let it all out or saying our fast
Maybe she'll smile or maybe she'll laugh
Maybe this dream is all that I have
Sweeter the feeling
The higer the hope
Nothing can help me
Where will I begin
When will I realise, will I realise
And I feel inside
Won't you help me girl
Won't you help me girl, say say it's myd ay
It's my night baby, it's a million to one
Don't say goodbye
(h. perdea, a. spooner & nacho mano)
From 'open road' album (argentina version)
Por que me besabas como si esto fuese a durar
Y permitiste que hablara si habia un final
Tu me abrazabas de un modo aquel, ahora que todo lo se
Por que no frenaste los suenos que no vivire
Ayudame
Estate hoy para salvar mi corazon
El modo de sentire tu piel
Yo se que nadie asi mi amor
Debiste quedarte y amanecer con el sol
Y comenzar en esa noche un futuro de amor
Solo un abrazo pudo bastar
Y mira que has hecho de mi
Debiste amarme hasta no ponder mas, oh si
Ayudame
Estate hoy para salvar mi corazon
El modo de sentir tu piel
Yo se que nadie asi mi amor
Yo solo no sabre, ayudame
Yo solo no podre
Solo no sabre (3x)
Ayudame
Solo ayudame, solo ayudame
Can we share tonight the years we've been apart baby
From the time we said goodbye until now
How the nights we laughed and loved still feel like yesterday
How I'm hoping you still feel the same
So strange we're standing here after all this time
Strange when the present and the past collides
Memories of our days apart I feel they're fading past
Silence for my questions here at last
Are you ready now for me to love you
Are you ready now to give this love a try, oh yeah
Are you ready now for me to give you trust, to give you truth
Are you ready now for me
Are you ready now for me to say I love you
The look upon your face shows no surprise baby
Guess you always knew when things played on my mind
I believe in second chances
I believe in love for life
I believe maybe you can lost love once but never twice, no, no
Are you ready now for me to love you
Are you ready now to give this love a try
Are you ready now for me to give you trust, to give you truth
Are you ready now for me
Are you ready now for me to say I love you
Throw the past aside
Let's make up for lost time
If we let this love past by
We may never find these feelings again in our lives
Are you ready now for me to love you
Are you ready now to give this love a try
Are you ready now for me to give you trust, to give you truth
Are you ready now for me
Are you ready now for me to say I love you
Are you ready now for me to love you
Are you ready now to give this love a try
Are you ready now for me to give you trust, to give you truth
Are you ready now for me
I know you've heard so many people say
I've got a different girl in every town
But there must be somebody telling lies
And spreading rumours spreading rumours all around
Cause a cuddly toy it's my only joy
Waiting for the day when I get home
And what I need is a girl like you
Just to call call me baby own
So you've got to feel for me baby
You know you got to feel for me baby
Oh, you've got to give me your love
Well I don't pour out my heart like this to everyone
And not anyone that I meet
And I know it ain't the wine cause I feel just fine
Can't you see babe, I'm still on my feet
So you've got to feel for me baby
You got to feel for me baby
You know, you've got to feel for me baby
You've gotta give me your love
Come on now
So you gotta feel for me baby
You gotta feel for me baby
You know, you gotta feel for me baby
You've got to give me your love
First thing in the morning is
Last thing in the night
Girl you've got to love me
Treat me so right
You know you have got to feel, come on
Told you once told you big times
You know you've got to feel
Come on baby, told you big times
Told you five times
You know you've got to feel feel
Come on, come on baby
You've got to feel my lofe
You've got to feel for me baby
You've got to give me your love
First thing in the morning last thing in the night
Girl you gotta love me, treat me so right
Treat me so right, treat me so right
I can't sit and wait,
for you to say,
if there's room inside your heart,
I'm not used to playing,
love's silly games,
turn me down or let me start,
You have to believe I'll make things right,
open your arms give up the fight,
For all that you want,
for all that you're feeling,
there's a place where you can go,
for all that you need,
I will be waiting,
to be your life your hero,
Now if you decide,
to run and hide,
it's only you you're cheating,
(the key's in your hand)
the key's in your hand
(you must understand)
you must understand,
I won't be defeated no,
I really believe this goes inside,
open your arms let me see your light,
For all that you want,
for all that you're feeling,
there's a place where you can go,
for all that you need,
I will be waiting,
to be your life your hero,
I'm sure that you've heard this before so many times,
(so many times)
yeah,
but girl look inside my heart and you will find,
I'll be your life your hero,
I'll be the one to hold you,
I'll never let you go,
I'll always understand you baby,
to be your life your hero,
(for all that you want)
for all that you want,
(for all you're feeling)
for all that you're feeling,
(there is a place)
there's a place where you can go,
(for all that you need)
for all that you need,
(I will be waiting)
I will be waiting,
to be your life your hero,
whoa, ho,
(for all that you want)
whoa ho yeah,
(for all you're feeling)
(there is a place)
there's a place where you can go,
(for all that you need)
oh yeah,
(I will be waiting)
I will be waiting,
to be your life,
Hey babe here I am
I'm a man on the scene
I can give you what you want
But you got to come home with me
I have got some good old love
And I got some more in store
When I get through throwing it on you
You better come and run back for more
Why don't you come along and down by the dozen
Me ain't nothing but drugstore loving
Pretty little thing let me light your candle
Cause mama I'm sure to handle now is around
Action speak louder than words
And I'm a man with experience
I know you've got another man
But I can love you better than him
Take my hand don't be afraid
While I prove every word I say
I'm advertising love for free
So won't you can place your ad with me
Babe here I am
I'm a man on your scene
I can give you what you want
But you got to come home with me
I've got some good old love
And I got some more in store
When I get through throwing it on you
The telephone it never rings when you want it to ring,
when it rings it's never the voice you needed to hear,
it's funny how the radio sings the words you meant to say,
and when you need a smile you only find a tear,
I'm in deep regret,
tryin' to forget,
but hope we'll never sleep when we're apart,
All that I've given, given away,
is all that I need here tonight,
the more that I try to, try to forget,
is the more this empty heart seems to fight,
it fights for all that I've given away,
hoo ooh ooh,
all that I've given away,
The day it never goes too fast when you need it to pass,
and every corner of the night loneliness sleeps,
and though I'll never hear the answer to the questions that I've asked,
often wonder what our future would have been,
this deep regret,
makes it harder to accept,
that love could pay the price from the heart,
All that I've given, given away,
is all that I need here tonight,
the more that I try to, try to forget,
is the more this empty heart seems to fight,
it fights for all that I've given away,
Well I know the load of changes slowly turned you upside down,
and the pieces of your life fall all around,
and at times it's hard to recognise the pace you've always lived,
where's the sun? Where's the sky?
What is love? What is life? Who am I?
whoa oh whoa oh, who am I?
And I feel it now?
(all I've given away, is all the I've been living for today)
it's all that I've been living for today
(all I'm feeling inside)
feeling inside
(it's everything I'm living for today)
I miss all, all your love
Oh, yeah yeah
I miss all, all this now
I think that I've found the truth
I think love is no more
But explaining love made its move
Said goodbye and walked through my door
I miss pain
I miss hope
I miss change now you're gone
I miss all, all your love
I miss days
I miss nights
Making up when, when we fight
I miss all, all this now
The lonely sky never seem so grey
It's been grey for so long
So God forgive me, I never used to pray
I've prayed every night girl, since you've been gone
All you said and all you did
It's all the loving that I miss
Can know your love and all the hate
But give it up this huge mistake
But that's explaining love it made it's move
All babies together
Every one a seed
Half of us are satisfied, half of us in need
Love's bountiful in us
Tarnished by our greed
When will there be a harvest for the world?
When will there be
I wanna know now baby
Half a nation planted
So concerned with gain
As the seasons come and go
Greater grows the pain
Far to many
Are feeling much strain
When will there be a harvest for the world?
So, when will there be
I wanna know now baby
Gather every man
And gather every woman
Celebrate your lives
And give thanks to our children
Gather every one
Gather all together
All together
Overlooking none (2x)
Hoping life gets better
For the world
So dress me up for battle
When all I want is peace
Those of us will pay the price
I come home with the least
And nation after nation
Are turning into beasts
He loved you much more,
than a sister or brother,
he is honest and kind,
he's a man like no other,
and he'd give his own life,
if somebody needed it more,
yes he laughs all the time with me,
he gives his love and friendship to all,
You hurt him real bad,
in his moments of silence,
he shares all his pain with me,
and his personal subsidence,
still he fights with his mind,
he believes he's done you wrong,
so he goes to sleep cryin' again like a child,
like a child,
He would go anywhere that you ask,
he would answer to all that you need,
but it's clear now to me what he's feelin' inside,
he is thinking of yesterday's girl,
all you are now is yesterday's girl,
he is free now from all of your painful attacks,
free now from all of your poisonous chats,
free,
yesterday's girl,
On occasions we'd smoke,
and make small conversation,
we'd pass briefly on older times,
and forgotten relations,
he's the best friend I've ever had,
our opinions never cross,
now you come to me needin' a shoulder that's strong,
all of your pain is because you were wrong,
He would go anywhere that you ask,
he would answer to all that you need,
but it's clear now to me what he's feelin' inside,
he is thinking of yesterday's girl,
all you are now is yesterday's girl,
he is free now from all of your painful attacks,
free now from all of your poisonous chats,
free,
yesterday's girl,
Yes he would go anywhere that you ask,
he would answer to all that you need,
but it's clear now to me what he's feelin' inside,
he is thinking of yesterday's girl,
all you are now is yesterday's girl,
he is free now from all of your painful attacks,
free now from all of your poisonous chats,
free,
yes he would go anywhere that you ask,
he would answer to all that you need,
but it's clear now to me what he's feelin' inside,
he is thinking of yesterday's girl,
all you are now is yesterday's girl,
he is free now from all of your painful attacks,
free now from all of your poisonous chats,
free,
So there you go again,
turning love into a question,
you know it's not so hard to say,
if this is for real or rejection,
don't make me promises don't make me decide,
don't beg forgiveness just try harder next time,
if you take directions from your heart,
I know this love will start,
Don't keep me wondering,
'cos it's hard enough to know,
don't keep me wondering,
if you've turned cold,
we've got to work it out,
whatever's wrong we'll make it right,
don't keep me wondering if your love,
is worth the fight,
All alone still waiting, yeah,
so glad I know that you're worth the chasing,
now I understand your easons,
I've never argued or fought with my feelin's,
Don't keep protecting don't keep changing your mind,
you use forgiveness as a way to fight time,
don't push aside a love you've never tried,
try and see this through my eyes,
Don't keep me wondering,
'cos it's hard enough to know,
don't keep me wondering,
if you've turned cold,
we've got to work it out,
whatever's wrong we'll make it right,
don't keep me wondering if your love,
is worth the fight,
don't keep me wondering,
I've been wondering if your love'll ever be,
so free, so free,
would you lie lie hi hi,
don't keep me wondering,
you know it's wrong,
yeah, ooh
we've got to work it out,
I've been wondering if your love ever be,
so free, so free,
no no no,
noo hoo,
we've got to work it out,
alright,
don't keep me wondering,
work it out,
don't keep me wondering,
To be your superhero
I can't sit and wait for you to say
If there's room inside your heart
I'm not used to playin' that silly game
Turn me down or let me start
You have to believe, I'll make things right
Open your arms, give up the fight
For all that you want, for all that you're feeling
There's a place where you can go
For all that you need, I will be waitin'
To be your superhero
Now if you decide, to run and hide
It's only you, you're cheating
The key's in your hand, you must understand
I won't be defeated, no
I really believe, this goes inside
Open your arms, let me see in your eyes
For all that you want, or all that you're feeling
There's a place where you can go
For all that you need, I will be waitin'
To be your superhero, to be your superhero
I'm sure that you've heard this before so many times
Girl, look inside my heart and you will find
You'll find your superhero
I'll be the one to hold you, I'll never let you go
I'll always understand you, baby
To be your superhero
For all that you want, for all that you're feeling
There's a place where you can go
For all that you need, I will be waiting
To be your superhero
For all that you want, for all you're feeling
There's a place where you can go
For all that you need, I will be waitin'
Love, it has so many beautiful faces
Sharing lives and sharing days
My love it had so many empty spaces
I'm sharing a memory now
I hope that's how it stays
Now I'm deep inside love and still breathing
She is holding my heart in her hand
I'm the closest I've been to believing
This could be love forever
All throughout my life
The reasons I've demanded
But how can I reason
With the reason I'm a man
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh yeah
In a minute I'm needing to hold her
In an hour I'm cold, cold as stone
When she leaves it gets harder and harder
To face life alone
Now my dreams are filled
With times when we're together
Guess what I need from her
Is forever love
Ooh, Ooh, yeah
Oh, oh, oh, oh, mm-mm-mm
Oh, oh, yeah
Now I feel forever love
Ooh, ooh
Oh yeah
Here comes the sun
Here comes the sun, and I say
It’s all right
Little darling
It’s been a long, cold lonely winter
Little darling
It feels like years since we’ve been here
Here comes the sun
Here comes the sun, and I say
It’s all right
Little darling
The smiles returning to the faces
Little darling
It seems like years since it’s been here
Here comes the sun
Here comes the sun, and I say
It’s all right
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Little darling
I feel that ice is slowly melting
Little darling
It seems like years since it’s been clear
Here comes the sun
Here comes the sun, and I say
It’s all right
Here comes the sun
Here comes the sun, and I say
It’s all right
It’s all right
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
