Somethin' changin' for me inside
Took a long time
Now there's nothin' for me to hide
I say what's on my mind
Changes, makin' me see the light
I finally see wrong from right
Now I can see every sign.
Oooh, I think I like it
I think I like what I'm feelin'
Even though it's such a surprise
But you know
Oooh, I think I really like it
I think I like what I feel
And changes really open your eyes
Oh, look at the world we make
What have we begun?
People livin' for what they take
All for number one
Changes makin' me see the light
I finally see the light
I finally see wrong from right
Now that it's all said and done
Oooh, I think I like it
I think I like what I'm feelin'
Even though it's such a surprise
But you know
Oooh, I think I really like it
I think I like what I feel
And changes really open your eyes
Oh doesn't love say enough
When you realize?
People try to come on so tough
All to fantasize
Changes takin' me through the night
I finally see the light
I've opened my eyes
Those changes can open your eyes
If I said what's on my mind
you'd turn and walk away
disappearing way back in your dreams
It's so hard to be unkind
So easy just to say
that everything is just the way it seems
You look up at me
And somewhere in your mind you see
a man I'll never be
If only I could find a way
I'd feel like I'm the man you believe I am
And it gets harder every day for me
to hide behind this dream you see
A man I'll never be
I can't get any stronger
and I can't climb any higher
You'll never know just how hard I've tried
Cry a little longer
and hold a little tighter
Emotions can't be satisfied
You look up at me
And somewhere in your mind you see
a man I'll never be
(instrumental)
If only I could find a way
I'd feel like I'm the man you believe I am
And it gets harder every day for me
to hide behind this dream you see
A man I'll never be
(instrumental)
Can't get any stronger
and I can't climb any higher
You'll never know just how hard I've tried
Cry a little longer
and hold a little tighter
Emotions can't be satisfied
Oh you look up at me
And somewhere in your mind you still see
a man I'll never be
If only I could find a way
I'd feel like I'm the man you believe I am
And it gets harder every day for me
I'm conscious of liars that cross my path
The sinners ambitious to rule this land
The gardens are dead and the walls have bled
People betrayed in a secret rage
Turn it off, somebody's asking me
Turn it off, somebody hears
Turn it off, somebody's asking me
Turn it off, somebody show a better way
The system's in distress
We feel the consequence, yeah
Sinners and liars have crossed my path
There's simple disgrace from the souls of man
My sister's in rags and her babe's in pain
Turn it off, somebody's asking me
Turn it off, somebody hears
Turn it off, somebody's asking me
Turn it off, somebody hears
Turn it off
Don't hear the words I'm preaching
If you deny the times of tribulation
Don't read the words I've given
If you believe there's sides to revelations
Life that once was taken brings a million lives to isolation
Brings a million lives to isolation
Turn it off, somebody's asking me
Turn it off, somebody hears
Turn it off, somebody's asking me
Turn it off, somebody hears
Turn it off
I'm conscious of liars that cross my path
The sinners ambitious to rule this land
Can't you say you believe in me?
Can't you see what you mean to me?
Everyday I think of you, you're on my mind
Some things in the past, are better left behind
Every night I dream of you, the images as clear as day
Can't you say you believe in me?
Can't you say you believe in me?
You know that where there's a will there's a way
Can't you say you believe in me?
Can't you see what it means to me?
Don't leave me alone tonight, 'cause I still love you
We've had our time apart, and I knew right from the start
I could never change, the way I feel about you baby
We can sit here all night long, and separate the right from the wrong
But love won't wait
Can't you say you believe in me?
Can't you say you believe in me?
You know that where there's a will there's a way
Can't you say you believe in me?
Can't you see what you mean to me?
Don't leave me alone tonight, 'cause I still love you
Oh, still in love with you
You know I need you baby, to stand by me
Can't you see I need you, baby?
Oh, I'm still in love with you
Can't you say you believe in me?
Can't you say you believe in me?
You know that where there's a will there's a way
Can't you say you believe in me?
Can't you see what you mean to me?
I hear you won't even say my name
I know things could never be the same
But whenever I call your number
You're not at home, don't hear the phone
Whenever I start to wonder
Are you alone, are you alone
Someone won't go to sleep tonight
Someone is gonna hurt inside
They say you receive the love you give
Someday you'll believe it's how I live
But when ever I call your number
I'm all alone and on my own
Whenever I start to wonder
The things you said, the words I read
Someone won't go to sleep tonight
Someone is gonna hurt inside
Someone like me, someone like me, like me
Someone won't go to sleep tonight
Someone is gonna hurt inside
Someone won't go to sleep tonight
Someone is gonna hurt inside
I stand on my own
And wonder if you've ever been alone
with all the world around you
Say the word; I'd be there
And like a fool I'd go anywhere
just like the day I found you
Tell me what you see
Tell me you believe in my love
Tell me what you need
Tell me you believe in my love
I don't understand what to say
You take my breath and then you walk away
Your life goes on without me
And you can look right at me
But in your eyes it's a mystery
What do you feel about me?
Tell me if it's real
Tell me what you feel in my love
Tell me what you see
Tell me you believe in my love
Tell me what to give
Tell me I can live for your love
Tell me not to leave
Tell me to believe in your love
I don't really know what to say
I don't know how but I could learn to pray
If praying makes you hear me
I could stay on my own
and wonder if I'd have ever known
I just want you near me
Tell me if it's real
Tell me what you feel in my love
Tell me what you need
Tell me you believe in my love
Tell what to give
Tell me how to live for your love
Tell me what you see
What does it take to be a man?
What does it take to see
It's all heart and soul
A gentle hand?
So easy to want and so hard to give
How can you be a man
'Till you see beyond the life you live?
Oh, what does it take to be a man?
We can be blind, but a man tries to see
It takes tenderness
For a man to be what he can be
And what does it mean
If you're weak or strong?
A gentle feelin'
can make it right or make it wrong
What does it take to be a man?
The will to give and not receive
The strength to say what you believe
The heart to feel what others feel inside
To see what they can see
A man is somethin' that's real
It's not what you are
It's what you can feel
It can't be too late
To look through the hate and see
I know that's what a man can be
Take a look around and tell me what you see
I guess that all depend on exaclty what you want it to be
Is your cup half-full? Is your cup half-empty?>br> How can you get what you need in the land of plenty?
Everybody gets carried away
Everybody's trying everyday to remind you
(Ooo) Leave it behind you
What's it take to see?
What's it take to believe right from wrong?
Never knowing where you belong
Walk On
Walk On
Sometimes I feel like I'm just doing time
Everybody wonders where you're going when you step out of line
Don't know all the answers, someone's got to stand up and say "Hey!"
If you want to win the game then you know you're gonna have to play
Everybody's got to find a way
And everybody's trying everyday to remind you
What's standing behind you?
What's it take to see?
What's it take to believe right from wrong/
Never knowing where you belong
Walk On
Walk On
Walk On
There's no turning back
Walk On
Get your train on the track
Who can stop de-evolution of the human race?
Look at you, Corporate America, you're in disgrace
Globalize; cigarettes, business jets, you love it
Maximize; but you can take your bottom line and shove it
Gotta get away (gotta get away)
Gotta get away, but I need a little help tonight
What 'ya gonna say (what 'ya gonna say)
What 'ya gonna say when you never even seen the light
See the light
Corporate America, look out, look out
Corporate America, who's gonna save us, who's gonna save us now?
You and I; DVDs, SUVs and cyberspace
Flying blind, virtual reality is in our face
This Earth desecrated by the human race
Now what's it worth? When do we evacuate to outer space?
Corporate America, look out, look out
Corporate America, who's gonna save us, who's gonna save us now?
I see the future in the past
Just took the corner way too fast, the reckless ride of modern man
Flattened everything that stands
Fooled by the sales pitch for progress at a dizzy pace
We idolize the filthy rich for giving us synthetic taste
Computer calls, urban sprawl
Is the world a better place, is the world a better place?
Fare thee well, global extinction's forever
So what the hell, order your Mercedes in leather
Veal crates, ozone holes, and toxic waste
And don't count out religious hate
Who can survive this manmade fate?
Gotta get away
Gotta get away, and I need a little help tonight
What 'ya gonna say
Wha 'ya gonna say when you couldn't even see the light
See the light
Yeah
My true love has come to call
The type of man I thought was dead and gone
And said, Sparrow, it's you I've come to see
'Cause with you is where I want to be
Oh, with you, with you
You take me higher
With you, with you
The waters parted the sea
With you, the stars shine much brighter
Fallin' into you, with you, with me
There's no way I'd ever resist
Or push away from your tender kiss
I give you my heart for the world to see
'Cause me with you, well it's destiny
Oh, with you, with you
You take me higher
With you, with you
The waters parted the sea
With you, the stars shine much brighter
Fallin' into you, with you, with me
Oh, with you
The stars shine much brighter
Fallin' into you, with you, with you
Oh, with you, with you with me
She's downright into herself, it's so untrue
She's dolled right in so well, this can't be you
So come down, so come see
You don't want to wake and believe
You don't know, you don't dream
But somehow you make me so dizzy
I wanna stare out your window
You don't want to let me in
Let me in
I wanna stare out your window
You don't want to let me in
Let me in
She's calling out to her friends, just give me two
She words right under her breath, they don't want you
So come down, so come please
You don't want to make me believe
You don't know, do not tease
Somehow you make me so free
I wanna stare out your window
You don't want to let me in
Let me in
I wanna stare out your window
You don't want to let me in
Let me in
So come down, so come please
You don't want to make me believe
You don't know, do not tease
Somehow you make me so free
I wanna stare out your window
You don't want to let me in
Let me in
I wanna stare out your window
You don't want to let me in
I know it never came easy
Girl, you drive me out of my mind
Your fine and still kind of sleazy
Now I want to make you mine
Somehow, I don't believe you
I really need you now
You know you're so good at teasing
Maybe that's what I like
Sometimes you're hot when you're freezing
Don't want to let you out of my sight
Somehow, I don't believe you
I really need you
I don't believe you
And I really need you
(Hey) You never believe what I say
You're gonna surrender someday
Surrender to me
Surrender to me
Surrender to me all the way
Surrender to me all the way (yeah, yeah)
Surrender to me
You've got an attitude
A hardheaded woman that I can't refuse
Your love is kind of rude
You love me like you got nothing to lose
Somehow, I don't believe you
I really need you
I don't believe you
And I really need you
(Hey) You never believe what I say
You're gonna surrender someday
Surrender to me
Surrender to me
Surrender to me all the way
Surrender to me all the way (yeah, yeah)
Surrender to me
All the way
All the way

Why is the bedroom so cold?
There's just a pillow left to hold
When you're gone I wait till dawn
Is devotion meant to go?
Why does an ocean turn to grey
Turn away my yesterday
Everything's so hard to show
But now warm my heart
Living without you
Living without you
Living without you means love
Why does an ocean turn to grey
It's on the way to make me stay
It's on the way you know I'm falling
Oh no I can't wait
Why is there nowhere to go
My love hold me so
Someday turns away
Into my yesterday
Living without you
Living without you
Living without you means love
Yesterday seems so far away
A nowhere to unknown
What all of these games we play
Why tell me why
Living without you
(Album: Corporate America, 2002)
"You say love is all you need
So the story goes
There's no changin' what you believe
But you're the one who knows
You gave up on love
You gave up so easily
Guess you're not so tough
You gave up on everything love could be
Saw the way so long ago
Guess it was beyond us
You won't say but you still know
You just broke your promise
You gave up on love
You gave up so easily
Guess you're not so tough
You gave up on everything love could be
Hey, you run to me but it's just not enough
Hey, you couldn't see that you had to be
You had to be in love
You gave up on love
You gave up so easily
Guess you're not so tough
You gave up on everything love could be
You gave up on love, hey
You gave up on love
(Album: Walk On, 1994)
"Well I saw her just as I was leaving
Crossing in between the cars
Sometimes seeing is just not believing
Like a spaceship coming down from Mars
(Oh)
Total attraction
You're driving me insane
A chain reaction
Baby, tell me what's your name
Baby, what's your name
Yeah, you know I'm not that underhanded
But I didn't know what else to do
So I told her that the ships had landed
And I told her "I'll take care of you"
(Oh)
Total attraction
You're driving me insane
A chain reaction
Baby, tell me what's your name.
Baby, what's your name?
Come on girl, what's your name?
(Oh, look out)
Well, I know you wouldn't understand it
Didn't know what I should say or do
And it wasn't quite the way I planned it
But I had to find a way to you
(Oh)
Total attraction
You're driving me insane
A chain reaction
Baby, tell me what's your name Yeah, yeah.
Baby, what's your name?
(Album: Corporate America, 2002)
"Hey, you can be so unfair
And you know I will remember
You said you'd always be there
When you go
Hey, I wanted you to know
I wish you were mine
And I, I just wanted you to know
I had a good time
Ooh I, I had a really good time
You can lie and I'll still believe it
It's OK, it doesn't matter
I know that you really mean it
In your own way
Hey, I wanted you to know
I wish you were mine
And I, I just wanted you to know
I had a good time
Ooh I, I had a really good time
You know what you want
Well maybe love is blind
But's alright, it's cool
I just wanted you to know
I had a really good time
Well I've been in love
But nothing lasts forever
So just holdon long enough
And maybe you'll end up together
It's alright, yeah, yeah, yeah
You can lie to my face and I'll believe it
It's OK, 'cause there's a feeling you can't replace
You didn't mean it anway
Hey, I wanted you to know
I wish you were mine
And I, I just wanted you to know
I had a good time
(Album: Walk On, 1994)
"I would do anything, anything a man can do
You're my strength and weakness
I give it all for you.
I would climb any mountain.
How can I make you see?
Though the stars may fall, it will always be you and me
The light in your eyes is all the hope I need
There's so much you can give.
Your smile is my reason to live.
Just take my hand, we'll make a stand
I know that we can make it.
(Hey) It's you and me. The world will see.
I know that we can make it, you and me.
I see you, full of sadness
Wondering 'bout this world we've made
There's a space between us all
Love has seen some better days
Oh, we can make it.
Oh, we can make it.
The love in your eyes is all I need to know
I'm never letting go
I'm here for you heart and soul
Just take my hand, we'll make a stand
I know that we can make it.
(Hey) It's you and me, the world will see
I know that we can make it.
I know that we can make it (Hey, yeah)
Just take my hand, we'll make a stand
I know that we can make it
(Hey) It's you and me. The world will see
I know that we can make it.
I know that we can make it.

Take a look around tell me what you can see
I guess that all depends on exactly what you want it to be
Don't know all the answers everybody's running away, hey
If you want to win the game then you know it's a shame not to play
Everybody get carried away
And everybody's got something to say
to remind you
Keep looking behind you
It's never easy to see
What it takes to believe right from wrong
Never going back where I've gone
Walk On
Walk On
Walk On
Walk On
Hey alright, we're not gonna turn back now

Just Walk On

"Can't help this feeling,
Can't help this feeling,
I can't believe it's open for discussion.
We've said our goodbyes.
I've been a fool not to see the repercussions.
You've had in my life.
I'm at the point of no return.
I've finally crossed the line.
Don't want to stop and watch the bridges burn,
'Cause I can't stand to see you stay behind.
I need your love.
I want you every way.
I need your love.
Can't help this feeling coming back everyday.
I stayed around hoping you'd discover
How much there was to lose.
I spelled it out, I led you to the water,
But you're too blind to choose.
I gave it everything and more to make it.
I've waited for so long.
I saw the chance to run and had to take it,
But something's missing and I know it's wrong.
I need your love.
I want you every way.
And I need your love.
Can't help this feeling coming back everyday.
I've passed the point of no return,
And all the tears have dried.
Don't want to stop and watch the bridges burn
'Cause I keep wishing I was on your side.
I need your love.
I want you every way.
And I need your love.
Can't help this feeling.
I need your love.
I want you every way.
I need your love.

The feeling takes so long to grow
If I tell you today will you turn me away
And let me go, I don't wanna lose you
I'm gonna take you by surprise and make you realize Amanda

Can'tcha see what you mean to me?
Everyday I think of you,
You're on my mind.

Are better left behind.
Every night I dream of you,
The images as clear as day.
Can'tcha say you believe in me?
Can'tcha say you believe in me?
You know that where there's a will there's a way.
Can'tcha say you believe in me?
Can't you see what it means to me?
Don't leave me alone tonight,

We've had our time apart
And I knew right from the start
I could never change
The way I feel about you baby.
We can sit here all night long
And separate the right from the wrong

"Now if you're thinkin' 'bout a love that left you,
Thinkin' you should hide away.
Girl I think it's wrong
You just try to be strong now babe.
Listen to what I've got to say
I know the feelin' that you feel today.
But don't be afraid of love.
Tell you how I feel about you.
Tell you what you want to hear.
Tell you that it's true.
But it's all up to you now babe.
Don't let your love disappear.
Can't believe that I'll be stayin' here.
But don't be afraid of love.
Baby don't you know good love is hard to find.
Don't you think I know what's goin' through your mind.
One man left you cryin' so you shut the door.
Just let me inside that's what my love is for.
Tell you how I feel about you.
Tell you what you want to hear.
Tell you that it's true.
But it's all up to you now babe.
Don't let your love disappear.
Can't believe that I'll be stayin' here.
Well, we were just another band out of Boston
On the road to try to make ends meet
Playin' all the bars, sleepin' in our cars
And we practiced right on out in the street
No, we didn't have much money
We barely made enough to survive
But when we got up on stage and got ready to play
People came alive.
Rock and roll band
Everybody's waitin'
Gettin' crazy
Anticipating love and music
Play, play, play, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Dancin' in the streets of Hyannis
We were getting pretty good at the game
People stood in line and didn't seem to mind
You know everybody knew our name
Livin' on rock-n-roll music
Never worry 'bout the things we were missing
When we got up on the stage and got ready to play
Everybody'd listen.
Rock and roll band
Everybody's waitin'
Gettin' crazy
Anticipating love and music
Play, play, play, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Playin' for a week in Rhode Island
A man came to the stage one night
He smoked a big cigar
Drove a Cadillac car
And said, ";Boys, I think this bands outta-sight
Sign a record company contract
You know I've got great expectations
When I hear you on the car radio
You're goin' to be a sensation!";

Now, I'm not like this,
I'm really kind of shy,
But I get this feeling
Whenever you walk by.
I don't want to down you,
I wanna make you high.
If you could see your way to me,
Come on and let me try.
Chorus :-
Let me take you home tonight.
Mama, now it's alright.
Let me take you home tonight,
I'll show you sweet delight.
You must understand this.
I've watched you for so long
That I feel I've known you,
I know it can't be wrong.
If we just get together
I wanna make you see
I'm dreaming of your sweet love tonight,
So mama let it be.

I don't wanna make excuses.
I don't wanna lie.
I just got to get loose
With you tonight.

I'm gonna show you sweet delight.
Show you sweet delight,
Pretty mama, mama,
Show you sweet delight.
Day is night in New York City.
Smoke, like water, runs inside
Steel idle trees to pity
Every living thing that's died.

Gonna hitch a ride,
Head for the other side;
Leave it all behind,
Never change my mind.
Gonna sail away,
Sunlight's another day;
Freedom on my mind,
Carry me away for the last time.
Ooooh yeah.
Life is like the coldest winter.
People freeze the tears I cry.
Words of hail their minds are into.
I've got to crack this ice and fly.
Chorus
[Keyboard Solo]
[Guitar Solo]
It's been such a long time
I think I should be goin', yeah
And time doesn't wait for me, it keeps on rollin'
Sail on, on a distant highway
I've got to keep on chasin' a dream
I've gotta be on my way
Wish there was something I could say.
Well I'm takin' my time, I'm just movin' on
You'll forget about me after I've been gone
And I take what I find, I don't want no more
It's just outside of your front door.
It's been such a long time. It's been such a long time.
Well I get so lonely when I am without you
But in my mind, deep in my mind,
I can't forget about you
Good times, and faces that remind me
I'm tryin' to forget your name and leave it all behind me
You're comin' back to find me.
Well I'm takin' my time, I'm just movin' on
You'll forget about me after I'v e been gone
And I take what I find, I don't want no more
It's just outside of y our front door.
It's been such a long time. It's been such a long time.
Yeah. It's been such a long time, I think I should be goin', yeah
And time dosnt wait for me, it keeps on rollin'
There's a long road, I've gotta stay in time with
I've got to keep on chasin' that dream, though I may never find it
I'm always just behind it.
Well I'm takin' my time, I'm just movin' along
Takin' my time, just movin' along
Takin' my time, takin' my time...
(Scholz)
You should have seen by the look in my eyes, baby
There was something missing
You should have known by the tone of my voice maybe
But you didn’t listen
And you played dead, but you never bled
Instead you lay still in the grass
All coiled up and hissing
And though I know all about those men
Still I don't remember
Cos it was us baby, way before then
And we’re still together
And I meant every word I said
When I said that I love you
I meant that I love you forever
And I'm gonna keep on loving you
Cos it's the only thing I wanna do
I don't wanna sleep
I just wanna keep on loving you
And I meant every word I said
When I said that I love you
I meant that I love you forever
And I'm gonna keep on loving you
Cos it's the only thing I wanna do
I don't wanna sleep
I just wanna keep on loving you
Baby, I'm gonna keep on loving you
Cos it's the only thing I wanna do
I don't wanna sleep
I stand on my own
And wonder if you've ever been alone with all the world around you
Say the word; I'd be there
And like a fool I'd go anywhere
Just like the day I found you
Tell me what you see
Tell me you believe in my love
Tell me what you need
Tell me you believe in my love
I don't understand what to say
You take my breath then you walk away
Your life goes on without me
And you can look right at me
But in your eyes it's a mystery
What do you fell about me?
Tell me if it's real
Tell me what you feel in my love
Tell me what you see
Tell me you believe in my love
Tell me what to give
Tell me I can live for your love
Tell me not to leave
Tell me to believe in your love
I don't really know what to say
I don't know how but I could learn to pray
If prayin' makes you hear me
I could stay on my own
And wonder if I'd have ever known
But I just want you near me
Tell me if it's real
Tell me what you feel in my love
Tell me what you need
Tell me you believe in my love
Tell me what to give
Tell me how to live for your love
Tell me what you see
Now if your feelin' kinda low 'bout the dues
you've been payin'
Future's comin' much too slow
And you wanna run but somehow you keep on stayin'
Can't decide on which way to go
CHORUS
I understand about indecision
But I don't care if I get behind
People living in competition
All I want is to have my peace of mind
Now you're climbing to the top of the company ladder
Hope it doesn't take too long
Can't you see there'll come a day when it won't matter
Come a day when you'll be gone
CHORUS
Take a look ahead
Take a look ahead
Yea,yea,yea, yea
Well everybody's got advice they just
keep on givin'
Dosen't mean to much to me
Lots of people have to make believe
they're livin'
Can't decide who they should be
CHORUS
Take a look ahead
Take a look ahead
Yea,yea,yea, yea
I didn’t mean to fall in love
I didn’t mean to fall in love
And all I need to say
I can’t go on the way things are
How can I lead the way
It feels so wrong to be so far away
Ooh, from you tonight
Cos I, I can’t survive
Didn’t know you wouldn’t come tonight
Didn’t handle love either
Didn’t know the guy would start a fight
Didn’t mean to go, go and fall in love
It’s like an avalanche
Once you fall you’re swept away
I didn’t stand a chance
Hanging on every word you say
Hey, we can find a place forever
Do you want it bad enough
I didn’t mean to fall in love
I didn’t mean to fall in love
So could you catch a plane
Come back home for one more try
I’ll never be the same
I fell so hard out of the sky today
Ooh, it’s not the same
And you, I would never believe
What you do for me
Can’t you see you’re all I need
Didn’t know you wouldn’t come tonight
Didn’t handle love either
Didn’t know the guy would start a fight
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Hey, my higher power
Yeah, give me the power
Let me love you
Take me home to your
religion for the night
Let me touch you
Teach me how to see
your vision through my eyes
Turn the pages
Tell my story
let me face another day
Safe embraces
I feel it comin' now
my captain's on his way
(chorus)
Hey, my higher power
The world is spinnin'
but I'm not afraid
Yeah, give me the power
It's the beginnin'
the beginnin' of another day
Yeah
Let me hold you
Take me back into
the secrets of my mind
Let me know you
Come and save me Lord
don't let me cross the line
(chorus)
Ooh, let me love you
(instrumental)
Hey, my higher power
The world is spinnin'
but I'm not afraid
Yeah, my higher power
It's the beginning
of another day
(chorus)
Hey, my higher power
Yeah, my higher power
We're gonna play you a song, a little bit of rock-n-roll
You gotta let yourself go, the band's gonna take control
We're gettin' down today
We'll pick you up and take you away
Get down tonight
Smokin', Smokin'
We're cookin' tonight, just keep on tokin'
Smokin', Smokin'
I feel alright, mamma I'm not jokin', yeah
Get your feet to the floor, everybody rock and roll
You've got nothing to lose just the rhythm and blues, that's all, yeah
We're gonna feel ok
We'll pick you up and take you away
Get down tonight
Smokin', Smokin'
We're cookin' tonight, just keep on tokin'
Smokin', Smokin'
I feel alright, mamma I'm not jokin', yeah
Everybody jumpin', dancin' to the boogie tonight
Clap your hands, move your feet
If you don't you know it won't seem right
We're gettin' down today
We'll pick you up and take you away
Get down tonight
We're gettin' down today
We'll pick you up and take you away
Well, we were just another band out of Boston
On the road and tryin' to make ends meet
Playin' all the bars, sleepin' in our cars
And we practiced right on out in the street
No, we didn't have much money
We barely made enough to survive
But when we got up on stage and got ready to play people came alive
Chorus:
Rock and roll band everybody's waitin'
Getting' crazy, anticipatin'
Love, and music, play, play, play, yea, yea, yea, yea
Dancin' in the streets of Hyannis
We were getting pretty good at the game
People stood in line and didn't seem to mind
You know everybody knew our name
Livin' on rock and roll music
Never worried 'bout things we were missin'
When we got up on stage and got ready to play everybody'd listen
Repeat Chorus
Playin' for a week in Rhode Island
A man came to the stage one night
He smoked a big cigar,
Drove a Cadillac car and said,
\"Boys, I think this band's outtasight;
Sign a record company contract!
You know I've got great expectations!
When I hear you on the car radio
You're gonna be a sensation!\"
Just let me hear it from your lips
it's the last thing that I'll ask you to say
Don't wanna hear it from strangers
if it's over let me have it straight
I've been used
but i'm takin' it like a man
I'm confused
but I'm doin' the best that I can
I've been tossed around plenty before
I've had this heart of mine broken and more
I can't find a reason for sure
but I've gotten used to bad news
(can't find me a reason for sure)
Don't tell me why
yes it's over I can see the end
But please don't lie
if you're leavin' me like a friend
I've been tossed around plenty of times
and I've read between all the lines
You're just another in the grand design
and I've gotten used to bad news
I know what you're sayin' is bad
it's not what I wanted but I'm ready for that
I'm ready for that, yea
I've been used
but I'm takin' it like a man
I'm confused
but I'm doin' the best that I can
I've been tossed around plenty before
I've had this heart of mine broken and more
I can't find a reason for sure
but I've gotten used to bad news
Oooooooo,
Ooooooooooo.
When I was younger I thought I could stand on my own.
It wasn't easy, I stood like a man made of stone.
But there was something about you (I want you to know),
It brought a change over me (it's starting to show).
I've got this feeling inside,
Got to have you, have you,
Ain't no good to hide.
Chorus :-
It isn't easy to show
What I'm feeling inside, girl.
It isn't easy, I know
When you believe in a man like me.
When I get angry I say things I don't want to say.
I really mean it, I don't want to leave you this way.
I couldn't help my reaction (I want you to know),
I lose control over you (I just want you to know).
I've got this feeling inside,
Got to have you, have you,
Ain't no good to hide.
Chorus
But there was something about you (I want you to know),
It brought a change over me (it's starting to show).
I've got this feeling inside,
Got to have you, have you,
Ain't no good to hide.
Chorus
I am happy [?]
Can't you see?
I've gotta, gotta have you.
But there was something about you.
Well, we were just another band out of Boston
On the road to try to make ends meet
Playin' all the bars, sleepin' in our cars
And we practiced right on out in the street
No, we didn't have much money
We barely made enough to survive
But when we got up on stage and got ready to play
People came alive.
Rock and roll band
Everybody's waitin'
Gettin' crazy
Anticipating love and music
Play, play, play, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Dancin' in the streets of Hyannis
We were getting pretty good at the game
People stood in line and didn't seem to mind
You know everybody knew our name
Livin' on rock-n-roll music
Never worried 'bout the things we were missing
When we got up on the stage and got ready to play
Everybody'd listen.
Rock and roll band
Everybody's waitin'
Gettin' crazy
Anticipating love and music
Play, play, play, yeah, yeah
Playin' for a week in Rhode Island
A man came to the stage one night
He smoked a big cigar
And drove a Cadillac car
And said, "Boys, I think this bands outta-sight
Sign a record company contract
You know I've got great expectations
When I hear you on the comedy hour
You're gonna be a sensation!"
Rock and roll band
Everybody's waitin'
Gettin' crazy
Anticipating love and music
In my mind
I can see reminders of a past decay
So far behind
Like the shadows linger at the close of day
And we could see
We were timeless dreamers of another day
And we were free
In a dawning age we had so much to say
Ooh, the nights you came to me
A blue jean lady, so eager to be free
And the wind in your long hair blowin'
As we stood for the band, oh, Hollyann
Hollyann, we made the dark into light
We saw the wrong and the right
We were for life
And we would never concede it
Hollyann, we left the world behind
A million hands gave the sign
We held the line light
Can you believe it?
Hollyann
Hollyann
We could live
Just to turn the world into our fantasy
And we could give
Aquarius was really meant to be
You and I we were there to see the dawn
Side by side we had love to carry on
And I still hear guitars in the air
As we sat in the sand, oh, Hollyann
Hollyann, we made the dark into light
We saw the wrong and the right
We were for life
And we would never concede it
Hollyann, we left the world behind
A million hands gave the sign
We held the line light
I, I know I'm a dreamer
It's easy to see, I want to be a believer
And fly right through the air
Now I'm wide awake, I want you to take me there
The things that you told me
I don't know if I was dreaming
And dreams aren't enough
Life is so lonely
I need someone to believe in
Are you in love?
Can't you see that's everything to me
That's enough
Magdalene, let me hear it said so I am sure
Answer me, can't you see that's all I'm waitin' for?
Here I am on my knees once more, Magdalene
Time must lead you somewhere
I don't want to wait
I know you can take me there
The way that you hold me
I don't know if I was dreaming
And dreams aren't enough
Life is so lonely
I need someone to believe in
Someone to love
Can't you see that's everything to me
That's enough
Magdalene, let me hear it said so I am sure
Answer me, can't you see that's all I'm waitin' for?
Here I am on my knees, I'm begging, begging you please
Magdalene, Magdalene, ohh
Magdalene, let me hear it said so I am sure
Answer me, can't you see that's all I'm waitin' for?
Here I am on my knees, oh, I'm begging you please, Magdalene
It's been such a long time
I think I should be goin', yeah
And time doesn't wait for me
it keeps on rollin'
Sail on, on a distant highway, yeah
I've got to keep on chasin' a dream
I've gotta be on my way
Wish there was something I could say
(chorus)
Well I'm takin' my time
I'm just movin' on
You'll forget about me
after I've been gone
And I take what I find
I don't want no more
It's just outside of your front door
Yeah hey hey hey
It's been such a long time
It's been such a long time
Well I get so lonely when I am without you
but in my mind, deep in my mind
I can't forget about you
Good times and faces that remind me
I'm tryin' to forget your name
and leave it all behind me
You're comin' back to find me
(chorus)
(instrumental)
Yeah hey
It's been such a long time
I think I should be goin', yeah
And time doesn't wait for me
it keeps on rollin'
There's a long road
I've gotta stay in time with, yeah
I've got to keep on chasin' that dream
though I may never find it
I'm always just behind it
Well I'm takin' my time
I'm just movin' along
Takin' my time
Hey I'm just movin' along
Takin' my time
Just takin' my time, yeah
Takin' my time
Woh I'm just movin' along

A million hands gave the sign
We held the line
Can you believe it?
Can’t you say you believe in me
Can’t you see what you mean to me
Every day I think of you, you're on my mind
Some things in the past are better left behind
Every night I dream of you, the images as clear as day
Can’t you say you believe in me
Can’t you say you believe in me
You know that where there's a will there's a way
Can’t you say you believe in me
Can’t you see what it means to me
Don’t leave me alone tonight cos I still love you
We've had our time apart and I knew right from the start
I could never change the way I feel about you baby
We can sit here all night long and separate the right from the wrong
But love won't wait
Can’t you say you believe in me
Can’t you say you believe in me
You know that where there's a will there’s a way
Can’t you say you believe in me
Can’t you see what you mean to me
Don’t leave me alone tonight cos I still love you
Ooh, still in love with you
You know I need you baby, to stand by me
Can't you see I need you, baby
Ooh, I'm still in love with you
Can’t you say you believe in me
Can’t you say you believe in me
You know that where there's a will there’s a way
Can’t you say you believe in me
Can’t you see what you mean to me
Don’t leave me alone tonight cos I still love you
(Album: Corporate America, 2002)
"Different eyes with the same old screen
We laugh, we love, we cry from what we've seen
It's crazy, it's how we feel
We're staring at the walls and living out of magazines
Ooh, ooh, cryin' outside the line
There's people with disease
If you took a chance, would you like to dance
'Cause my heart is cryin'
What it would mean to me
It's like make-believe
And my heart is cryin', cryin'
Can't you see my heartis cryin'
Different minds with the same old dreams
We live a life of imaginary means
It's crazy, it's how we feel
A pilot always tries to fly without a winning pace
A runner can never decide to end a given race
Staring outside, a child's made a big mistake
If you took a chance, would you like to dance
'Cause my heart is cryin'
What it would mean to me
It's like make-believe
And my heart is cryin', cryin'
Can't you see my heartis cryin'
Different minds with the same old dreams
We live a life of imaginary means
Ooh, ooh, crying outside the line
There's people with disease
If you took a chance, would you like to dance
'Cause my heart is cryin'
What it would mean to me
It's like make-believe
And my heart is cryin', cryin'
Can'tcha say you believe in me?
Can'tcha see what you mean to me?
Everyday I think of you
you're on my mind
Some things in the past
are better left behind
Every night I dream of you
the images as clear as day
(chorus)
Can'tcha say you believe in me?
Can'tcha say you believe in me?
You know that where
there's a will there's a way
Can'tcha say you believe in me?
Can't you see what it means to me?
Don't leave me alone tonight
'cause I still love you
We've had our time apart
and I knew right from the start
I could never change
the way I feel about you baby
We can sit here all night long
and separate the right from the wrong
But love won't wait
(chorus)
Oooh, still in love with you
You know I need you baby
to stand by me
Can't you see I need you, baby?
Oooh, I'm still in love with you
(chorus)
I'm ready for more
the feelin' now that
I'm beside you
We'll open the door
do anything that
we decide to
And I know that there's something
that's just out of sight
And I feel like I'm
finally seeing the light
Holdin' on girl
I know it's right
I know it's right
We're ready, hey yeah
You and I
we'll find a reason
to simplify (simplify)
a change of season
And I feel like it's time
we were off on our way
We can go so much farther
than we've come today
Holdin' on girl and
come what may
Come what may
We're ready
We're ready
We're ready, yeah
We're ready
We're ready
We're ready
We're ready now
We can find a way
We're ready now
catchin' a wave to ride on
Steady now
headin' where we decide on
And I know that there's something
that's just out of sight
And I feel like we're trying
to do something right
Come on make it if we
hold on tight
Hold on tight
We're ready, yeah
We're ready, yeah yeah
We're ready
We're ready
We're ready, yeah yeah
We're ready, yeah yeah
We're ready, 1, 2, 3, 4
We're ready
(instrumental)
We can find a way
We're ready now, oooh
we're ready now
Well you know I don't get off on workin' day after day
I wanna have some fun while I'm here
I play the game when it's goin' my way
And there's nothin' like a party when it's kickin' into gear
I'm gettin' ready for a party tonight
Yes I'm gettin' ready to cruise
And if you've got somethin' for me
I've got somethin' for you
Baby
It's a party and nobody cares
What we're doin' there
Baby, it's a party as long as you're there
It's a party, party, party!
I can't believe it when some people say
That it's a sin that way we live to die
You know, there's never been a more natural thing
Yea there's a brand new story, but it's the same old lie
So come on
Get ready for the time of your life
'cause I'm gettin' right in the groove
And if you've got somethin' for me
I've got somethin' for you
Baby
It's a party and nobody cares
What we're doin' there
Baby, it's a party as long as you're there
It's a party, party, party!
Yea yea yea yea get down and party if you need a cue
You're sure to find one in the crowd
Just meet some friends and have a toke or two
In a place where they can never play the music too loud
Get ready for a party tonight
'cause I'm gettin' right in the groove
And if you've got somethin' for me
I've got somethin' for you
Baby
It's a party and nobody cares
What we're doin' there
Baby, it's a party as long as you're there
It's a party, party, party!
You know a man doesn't live on bread alone
He's got to have some lovin' each and every night
And a woman's got to have it if the truth be known
