JOAN BAEZ lyrics - Jackaroe
(Traditional)
There was a wealthy merchant,
In London he did dwell
He had a lovely daughter,
The truth to you I'll tell
Oh the truth to you I'll tell
She had sweethearts a-plenty
And men of high degree
There was none but Jack the sailor,
Her true love e'er could be
Oh her true love e'er could be
Now Jackie's gone a-sailing
With trouble on his mind
To leave his native country
And his darling girl behind
Oh, his darling girl behind.
She went into a tailor shop
And dressed in men's array
And stepped on board a vessel
To convey herself away
Oh, to convey herself away.
"Before you step on board, sir,
Your name I'd like to know"
She smiled all in her countenance,
"They call me Jackaroe"
Oh, they call me Jackaroe.
"Your waist is light and slender,
Your fingers are neat and small
Your cheeks too red and rosy
To face the cannonball"
Oh, to face the cannon-ball.
"I know my waist is slender,
My fingers neat and small
But it would not make me tremble
To see ten thousand fall"
Oh, to see ten thousand fall.
The war soon being over,
They hunted all around
And among the dead and dying
Her darling boy she found
Oh, her darling boy she found.
She picked him up all in her arms
And carried him to the town
And sent for a physician who
Quickly healed his wounds
Oh, who quickly healed his wounds.
This couple they got married
And well they did agree
This couple they got married,
So why not you and me
Oh, so why not you and me.
RICHARD THOMPSON lyrics - I'll Regret It All In The Morning
(Richard Thompson)
Whisky helps to clear my head
Bring it with you into bed
If I beat you nearly dead
I'll regret it all in the morning
I'm so drunk I couldn't care
If that's a wig or your own hair
Here's my ticket, take me there
I'll regret it all in the morning
I'll regret it all in the morning
When I see your smiling face
I'd rather be in any place but here
The years have left their mark
Your skin feels smooth as bark
As we shiver in the dark
I'll regret it in the morning
As you gaze around in fright
With your knuckles turning white
You're a lonely, lonely sight
To wake up to in the morning
This is no way to exist
With some girl who keeps a list
Naming all the boys she's missed
And she's longed for in the morning
I'll regret it all in the morning
When I see your smiling face
I'd rather be in any place but here
Now the room is spinning fast
And it fades away at last
When this empty night is passed
I'll regret it all in the morning
JEFFERSON AIRPLANE lyrics - Volunteers
Look what's happening out in the streets
Got a revolution Got to revolution
Hey I'm dancing down the streets
Got a revolution Got to revolution
Ain't it amazing all the people I meet
Got a revolution Got to revolution
One generation got old
One generation got soul
This generation got no destination to hold
Pick up the cry
Hey now it's time for you and me
Got a revolution Got to revolution
Come on now we're marching to the sea
Got a revolution Got to revolution
Who will take it from you
We will and who are we
We are volunteers of America
ELVIS PRESLEY lyrics - Without Him
(Mylon R. Lefevre)
Without Him I could do nothing
Without Him I'd surely fail
Without Him I would be drifting
Like a ship without a sail
Without Him I would be dying
Without Him I'd be enslaved
Without Him life would be worthless
But with Jesus thank God I'm saved
Oh Jesus, oh Jesus
Do you know Him today
Please don't turn Him away
Oh Jesus, my Jesus
Without Him how lost I would be
Without Him how lost I would be
MICHAEL BOLTON lyrics - Without Your Love
I don't know what it is you got
But it's plain enough to see
Whatever it is sure
Means alot to me, oh yeah
I try to turn and walk away
But it does no good, I've gotta stay
This feelin' that you give
Won't let me be, oh no
[Chorus:]
You really got a hold on me, yeah, yeah
I can't live without your love
I can't live without your love
I can't live without your love
I don't know what it is you give
But I can't live without your love
Everywhere I see your face
Even though my foolish pride
I must admit I've got
No place to hide, oh no
You're even living in my mind
It's getting to the point where I find
A day without you is like
A long lonely ride, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
Way that you're coming to me
Amazes me to no end
I turn my back on your love
And people tell me now
That I look like
I done lost my only friend, yeah
I don't know what it is you give
But I can't live
I don't know what it is you give
But I can't live
I don't know what it is you give
But I can't live without your love, yeah
I can't live without your love
[repeat 8x]
KMFDM lyrics - Mysterious Ways
Ha, ha, ha, ha!
Even better then the real thing!
Johnny take a walk with your sister the moon
Let her pale light in to fill up your room
You've been living underground
Eating from a can
You've been running away
From what you don't understand...
She's slippy
You're sliding down
She'll be there when you hit the ground
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
She moves in mysterious ways
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
She moves in mysterious ways
Johnny take a dive with your sister in the rain
Let her talk about the things you can't explain
To touch is to heal
To hurt is to steal
If you want to kiss the sky
Better learn how to kneel
(On your knees boy)
She's the wave
She turns the tide
She sees the man inside the child
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
She moves in mysterious ways
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
She moves in mysterious ways
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
Lift my days, light up my nights
One day you will look...back
And you'll see...where
You were held...how
By this love...while
You could stand...there
You could move on this moment
Follow this feeling
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
She moves in mysterious ways
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
She moves in mysterious ways
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
We move through miracle days
Spirit moves in mysterious ways
She moves with it
She moves with it
Lift my days, light up my nights

TESLA lyrics - Dear Mr. Fantasy
[Originally by Traffic]
Dear Mister Fantasy play us a tune
Something to make us all happy
Do anything take us out of this gloom
Sing a song, play guitar
Make it snappy
You are the one who can make us all laugh
But doing that you break out in tears
Please don't be sad if it was a straight mind you had
We wouldn't have known you all these years
FRANK SINATRA lyrics - Come Back To Me
Hear my voice, where you are, take a train, steal a car,
Hop a freight, grab a star, come back to me.
Catch a flame, catch a breeze, on your hand, on your knees,
Swim up high, only please come on back to me.
On a mule, in a jet, with your hair in a net,
In a shower wet, I don't care.
This is where you should be, from the hills to the shore,
By the wind to my door, raise the highway dust,
Break the law if you must, throw the world, only just
Come back to me.
Blast your hide, you recall, must I fight City hall
Here and now, damn it all, come on back to me,
Where on earth must I be, still I yell till I'm blue,
In control then when you come on back to me.
Have you gone to the moon, or the corner saloon
And to crack and to croon, oh my girl, where in hell can you be?
In a crate, in a trunk, on a horse, on a junk,
In a road or a van, wrapped in mink or saran,
Anyway that you can, came back to me,
Come back to me, come back to me, come back,
Come back to me, me!

THE CHURCH lyrics - Happenstance
When the distant charge of love is felt
And the fruit is heavy on the vine
Rivers rushing as the snow it melts
I should take some time
Really make you mine
Happenstance
Such a charmer
Like an extinguished star
You're gone yet still remain
And you've taken it so far
Return to outer space
If I lay me beside you
Your golden hair frozen
Happenstance
Such a charmer
Close your eyes in the dark
And open up a door
You feel the energy arc
You're not here anymore
When the honeyed days of love return
And the king is drunk upon his throne
City's empty and the crystal burnt
I should take some space
Be with you some place
When the hopeless nights of love have gone
And the spirits are still within the trees
And we're running back to Albion
I should take some chance
Given happenstance
Happenstance
Such a charmer

JUDAS PRIEST lyrics - Living After Midnight
(Halford/Tipton/Downing)
Living after midnight, rockin' to the dawn
Lovin' 'til the morning, then I'm gone, I'm gone
I took the city 'bout one A. M, loaded, loaded
I'm all geared up to score again, loaded, loaded
I come alive in the neon light
That's when I make my moves right
Living after midnight, rockin' to the dawn
Lovin' 'til the morning, then I'm gone, I'm gone
Got gleaming chrome, reflecting steel, loaded, loaded
Ready to take on every deal, loaded, loaded
My pulse is racing, I'm hot to take
This motor's revved up, fit to break
Living after midnight, rockin' to the dawn
Lovin' 'til the morning, then I'm gone, I'm gone
I'm aiming for ya
I'm gonna floor ya
My body's coming
All night long
The air's electric, sparkin' power, loaded, loaded
I'm getting hotter by the hour, loaded, loaded
I set my sights and then home in
The joint starts flying when I begin
Living after midnight, rockin' to the dawn
Lovin' 'til the morning, then I'm gone, I'm gone
[Repeat and fade]
WOODY GUTHRIE lyrics - Go Back & Try

I'ma gonna go back an try;
Gonna go back an' try just one more time.
All you people shakin' your heads,

Gonna go back an' try, try one more time.

Take my Stella in my hand;
Gonna travel 'round my country one more time.

Good mornin' blues, how are you today;
Caint you hear me callin' you just one more time?

I'll sing my way outta two more prisons one more time.

Back where th' boll weevil kisst his darlin
You can bringa little water to Sylvye one more time.
Back t' th' gallyhouse drummin joints
Back t' th' boogyhouse jookin joint
Sing and play in my long trousers one more time.
I'm gonna wheel back, I'm gonna see paw an' maw
Down 'roun' Mooresport, Louisianna,
I'm runnin barefooted chasin that bullfrog one more time.

Singin louder than th' bull alligator one more time.

Huggin anda kissin you, sweet little Martha, one more time.
One more time baby you gonna be my wife
Tellin the whole world you're half my life;
Holdin your hand like the day I met you one more time.

PINK FLOYD lyrics - Eclipse
All that you touch
All that you see
All that you taste
All that you feel
All that you love
All that you hate
All you distrust
All that you save
All that you give
All that you deal
All that you buy
beg, borrow or steal
All you create
All you destroy
All that you do
All that you say
All that you eat
everyone you meet
All that you slight
everyone you fight
All that is now
All that is gone
All that's to come
and everything under the sun is in tune
but the sun is eclipsed by the moon.
BBM lyrics - Naked Flame
(Gary Moore)
There's a place in my heart where you used to be
There's a pain deep inside don't want the world to see
Nothing but emptiness
Once there was your caress
I was touched by your naked flame.
Now it was hard sometimes tose things that we went through
But believe me when I say i would never mean to hurt you
I hold the memory of holding you next to me
In my arms like a naked flame.
Think it over before you break my heart
Think it over before the crying starts
Then we can say goodbye to the tears
I should have known that this time was a coming
But if you ever need me I'll come a-running, home to you
There's a place in my dreams where we used to meet
But there's no one around now, it's just an empty street
hold the memory of holding you close to me
In my arms like a naked flame
In my heart burns a naked flame.

BONNIE RAITT lyrics - You
Nobody else could make me happy
No one could hurt me like you do
You were the only one That mattered
Then you were gone...Love had moved on
Left me alone thinking of...
You...There was never any other
You...and I were created to be true
Isn't it Love that keeps us breathing
Isn't it love we're sent here for
Wasn't that love that we were feeling
(That was something baby)
Deep in our soul...Deeper than we know
Keeping me holding out for
You...There was never any question
You'll be forever on my mind
You and I, we were meant to be together
True hearts in a world where love is dyin'
And I might as well have been dyin' when
We were apart
When you came back I felt the beating of my heart
You...There was never any question
You'll be forever on my mind
You and I, we were meant to be together
You...and only you
It was you...only you
You...Always you
KANSAS lyrics - Loner
(Steve Walsh)
I remember when I saw your face I said out loud she's out of place
She's summer's child and still she feels no freedom
Your hair was long and so was mine when we were young I felt a kind of magic
Did you feel that for me
(Chorus)
I thought that you would understand you thought that I was in your hand
Now's the time when I can't stay not even you can change the way
I'm a loner
I remember when I saw your eyes I said out loud I realize
That beauty often hides a heart that's hardened
You tell me now you use them all they love it best before they fall
Collected like a flower in your garden
(Chorus)
GLEN CAMPBELL lyrics - Angel Dream
[Originally by Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers]
I dreamed you
I saw your face
Caught my lifeline
When drifting through space
I saw an angel
I saw my faith
I can only thank God it was not too late
Over mountains
I floated away
'Cross an ocean
I dreamed her name
I followed an angel
Down through the gates
I can only thank God it was not too late
Sing a little song
Loneliness
Sing one to make me smile
Another round for everyone
I'm here for a little while
Now I'm walking
This street on my own
But she's with me
Everywhere I go
Yeah, I found an angel
I found my place
I can only thank God it was not too late
I can only thank God it was not too late
I can only thank God it was not too late
RICKY NELSON lyrics - Night Train To Memphis
Take that night train to Memphis
Take that night train to Memphis
And when you arrive at the station
I'll be right there to meet you
I'll be right there to greet you
So don't turn down my invitation
Halleluja, hallelujah
I'll be shoutin' hallelujah all the day
Oh we'll have a jubilee down in Memphis, Tennessee
And we'll shout hallelujah all the day
Take that night train to Memphis
Take that night train to Memphis
Tell that engineer to pull that throttle open
Keep that engine stack a smokin'
I'm not kiddin', I'm not jokin'
I'll soon be with my girl and I'm hopin'
Halleluja, hallelujah
I'll be shoutin' hallelujah all the day
Oh we'll have a jubilee down in Memphis, Tennessee
And we'll shout hallelujah all the day
Take that night train to Memphis
Take that night train to Memphis
And when you arrive at the station
I'll be right there to meet you
I'll be right there to greet you
So don't turn down my invitation
Halleluja, hallelujah
I'll be shoutin' hallelujah all the day
Oh we'll have a jubilee down in Memphis, Tennessee
And we'll shout hallelujah all the day
ROD STEWART lyrics - For All We Know
For all we know
We may never meet again
Before you go
Make this moment sweet again
We won't say goodnight
Until the last minute
I'll hold out my hand
And my heart will be in it
For all we know
This may only be a dream
We come and go
Like a ripple on a stream
So love me, tonight
Tomorrow was made for some
Tomorrow may never come
For all we know
Tomorrow may never come
For all we know

RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS lyrics - Police Helicopter

STYX lyrics - Back To Chicago
(Dennis DeYoung)
I was waiting all alone last night
When they cancelled all remaining flights
And I was suddenly aware, I was being so unfair
To turn and run from you again
So I called you on the telephone
And I said hey girl I'm coming home
Cause I know my words were cruel
And that I acted like a fool
But I'm gonna make it all up to you
And I don't care what people say
Cause I'm gonna love you night & day
Oh baby if you still want me
Still need me, all you gotta do is let me
Walk right up to your door
I'm makin' my way back to Chicago
I'm makin' my way come rain or shine
I'm gonna find true love waiting for me
I'm gonna make it all work out for good this time
Let's go walking by the beach tonight
And watch the sun come up on Lake Shore Drive
Then I'll take you in my arms
And I'll keep you from all harm
Cause I know everything is gonna be alright
And I don't care what people say
Cause I'm gonna love you night & day
Oh baby if you still want me
Still need me, all you gotta do is let me
Just walk right up to your door
I'm makin' my way back to Chicago
I'm makin' my way come rain or shine
I'm gonna find true love waiting for me
I'm gonna make it all work out for good this time
I'm makin' my way back to Chicago
I'm makin' my way come rain or shine
I'm gonna find true love waiting for me
I'm gonna make it all work out for good
Know it's understood
I'm coming home to stay this time
ROSANNE CASH lyrics - Seven Year Ache (Live)
You act like you were just born tonight
Face down in a memory but feeling all right
So who does your past belong to today?
Baby, you don't say nothing when you're feeling this way
The girls in the bars thinking, "who is this guy?"
But they don't think nothing when they're telling you lies
You look so careless when they're shooting that bull
Don't you know heartaches are heroes when their pockets are full
Tell me you're trying to cure a seven-year ache
See what else your old heart can take
The boys say, "when is he gonna give us some room"
The girls say, "god I hope he comes back soon"
Everybody's talking but you don't hear a thing
You're still uptown on your downhill swing
Boulevard's empty, why don't you come around?
Baby, what is so great about sleeping downtown?
Plenty of dives to be someone you're not
You say you're looking for something you might've forgot
Don't bother calling to say you're leaving alone
'Cause there's a fool on every corner when you're trying to get home
Just tell 'em you're trying to cure a seven-year ache
See what else your old heart can take
The boys say, "when is he gonna give us some room"
The girls say, "god I hope he comes back soon"
Tell me you're trying to cure a seven-year ache
See what else your old heart can take
The boys say, "when is he gonna give us some room"
The girls say, "god I hope he comes back soon"

URIAH HEEP lyrics - Mistress Of All Time (Enlightened Woman)
(Lanzon)
She dances on the seven seas
Dances on the ocean
Sunlight on her golden hair
Shapes of pure emotion
Her voice is heard like crystal words across the sky
She moves just like an angel
She's the mistress of all time
Her sun pours down like liquid gold
To chase away the sorrows
Her clothes are like a million stars
Made of tears and rainbows
And all the while her senses smile into my life
She moves just like an angel
She's the mistress of all time
Just like the restless to a mission bell
I must run to her meet her everywhere
As her music fills the universe
She leaves the dancing visions
Of her image on the water
And precious stones upon the shore
From every distant corner
Like diamonds in the light they shine beyond the stars
She moves just like an angel
She's the mistress of all time
Just like the restless to a mission bell
I must run to her meet her everywhere
As her music fills the universe
She dances on the seven seas
Dances on the ocean
Sunlight on her golden hair
Shapes of pure emotion
Her voice is heard like crystal words across the sky
She moves just like an angel
She's the mistress of all time
She move me like an angel
A voice of pure emotion
Her tears are like a rainbow
BONNIE TYLER lyrics - He's Got A Hold On Me
(Nik Kershaw)
No matter how hard I try
No matter how many days go by
I really can't make this feeling go away
Whenever I change my mind
Whenever I turn my head around
The only one I can see every single day
He's got a hold on me
Nothing I can say
Nothing I can do
He's got a hold on me
And pretty soon he may
Have a hold on you
Whenever he's somewhere else
I try to remember if I can
When if only I could forget
I think I'd be just fine
I wonder where he came from
I wonder what name he answers to
Whatever he calls himself
I'd like to call him mine
He's got a hold on me
Nothing I can say
Nothing I can do
He's got a hold on me
And pretty soon he may
Have a hold on you
It could be my low resistance
And you can all be as smug as hell
But you all better keep your distance
Unless you wanna get burnt as well
Whenever he walks on by
And looks at me then I know
That he is never letting go
He's got a hold on me
Nothing I can say
Nothing I can do
He's got a hold on me
And pretty soon he may
Have a hold on you
BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN lyrics - Kitty's Back
Catlong sighs holding Kitty's black tooth
She left to marry some top cat, ain't it the cold truth
And there hasn't been a tally since Sally left the alley
Since Kitty left with Big Pretty things have got pretty thin
It's tight on this fence since them young dudes are musclin' in
Jack Knife cries 'cause baby's in a bundle
She goes running nightly, lightly through the jungle
And them tin cans are explodin' out in the ninety-degree heat
Cat somehow lost his baby down on Bleecker Street
It's sad but it sure is true
Cat shrugs his shoulders, sits back and sighs
OOh, what can I do, ooh, what can I do?
OOh, what can I do, ooh what can I do?
Catlong lies back bent on a trash can,
Flashing lights cut the night, dude in the white says he's the man
Well you better learn to move fast when you're young or you're not long around
Cat somehow lost his Kitty down in the city pound
So get right, get tight, get down
Well who's that down at the end of the alley?
She's been gone so long
Kitty's back in town, here she comes now
Kitty's back in town
Kitty's back in town, here she comes now
Kitty's back in town
Kitty's back in town, here she comes now
Kitty's back in town
Now Cat knows his Kitty's been untrue
And that she left him for a city dude
But she's so soft, she's so blue
When he looks into her eyes
He just sits back and sighs
Ooh, what can I do, ooh, what can I do?

ROGER TAYLOR lyrics - Two Sharp Pencils (Get Bad)
(Roger Taylor)
Here comes a dude
Get a look at that guy
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
Na na ba ba ba da da da
Give me 'b' give me 'a' give me 'd'
Give me one two three
Give me one two three
Now there was a young man from Dundee
Got stung on the knee by a wasp
And asked if it hurt said no not a bit
He can do it again if he wants to
Again if he wants to
Do it again if he wants to
It's bad
Real bad
It's a crazy world full of crazy dudes
If we all get crazy we can boogie through
Yeah
Say give me two sharp pencils
Give me peace for days
It's bad
That's bad
Get bad
Alright
That's bad
Get bad
Not bad
There's a cute young chick from??????
Went for a swim in a lake
When a man in a punt stuck the pole over the edge
Said you can't swim here it's private
That's bad
Get bad

THIN LIZZY lyrics - Hollywood
They say people out in hollywood
Live their life out in black and white
They're living out a technicolor dream
Next day they're a star overnight
Not like living in new york
Man, it's tougher
Not like in london town
Boy, you suffer
Nobody give a break
When you're down on your luck
Everybody's on the take
When you're down on your luck
You can't make a mistake
When you're down on your luck
People out in hollywood
They got a lot of class
You see the boys strutting down the boulevard
Trying to make a pass
Not like in new york
It's high rise, it's concrete and complex
Not like in london town
It reigns down on its subjects
Nobody give a damn
When you're down on your luck
Nobody understands
When you're down on your luck
Lady chance, she won't dance
When you're down on your luck
People out in hollywood
They can make it to the stars
They can reach the screen
Drive around in big expensive convertible cars
Not like in new york
All you've got is broadway
Not like in the west end of london
You can't make it no way
Nobody give a damn
When you're down on your luck
Nobody understands
When you're down on your luck
You've got to strut your stuff
When you're down on your luck
You can't take it easy, it ain't good enough
When you're down on your luck
Everybody's on the make
When you're down on your luck
Nobody give a fair deal
When you're down on your luck
Nobody understands my uncle sam
When you're down on your luck
I'm ready for the dance
When you're down on your luck
I gotta make a dollar holler
When you're down on your luck

GARY WRIGHT lyrics - Love Is Alive
Well, I think it's time to get ready
To realize just what I have found
I have lived only half of what I am
It's all clear to me now
My heart is on fire
My soul's like a wheel that's turnin'
My love is alive
My love is alive, ya, ya, ya
There's something inside that's making me crazy
I'll try to keep it together
'Cause what I say may not happen the same way
Now could be forever
My heart is on fire
My soul's like a wheel that's turnin'
My love is alive
My love is alive, ya, ya, ya
My love is alive
My love is alive
There's a mirror moving inside my mind
Reflecting the love that you shine on me
Hold on now to that feelin'
Let it flow, let it grow, ya, ya
My heart is on fire
My soul's like a wheel that's turnin'
My love is alive
My love is alive, ya, ya, ya
My love is alive
My love is alive
My love is alive
My love is alive
My love is alive
My love is alive
My love is alive

GEORGE HARRISON lyrics - Blood From A Clone
They say they like it, now, but in the market it
May not go well as it's too laid back.
You need some oomph-papa, nothing like
Frank Zappa
And not New Wave they don't play that crap
Tyr beating your head on a brick wall
Hard like a stone
Don't have time for the music
They want the blood from a clone
I hear a clock ticking
I feel the nitpicking
I almost quit kicking at the wall
There seems a confusion, under the illusion
That they know just what will suit you all
Beating my head on a brick wall
Hard like a stone
Ain't got time for the music
They want the blood from a clone
There is no sense to it
Pure pounds and pence to it
They're so intense too makes me amazed
Don't want no music but, they're making you
sick with
Some awful noises that may get played
By beating their heads on a brick wall
Hard like a stone
Ain't no messing 'round with music
Give them the blood from a clone
Where will it all lead us
I thought we had freed us
From the mundane seems I'm wrong again
Could be they lack roots, they're still wearing
jack boots they're
Marching somewhere in the pouring rain
Beating my head on a brick wall
Hard like a stone
Don't have time for the music
They want the blood from a clone
LOU REED lyrics - Home Of The Brave
Here's to Johnny with his Jo, and Mickey's got a wife
And here's to Jerry, he's got Joyce
And me I'm shaking in my boots tonight
For the daughters and the sons
Lost in the home of the brave
Here's to the home of the brave
Here's to the life that's not saved
Here's to the home of the brave
Here's to the home of the brave
Here's to Frank, hit in some bar
In picturesque Brooklyn Heights
And here' to a friend, who jumped in front of a train
At seven o'clock, on night
And another friend, who thinks he lacks worth
Has disappeared from sight
Somewhere in the home of the brave
Here's to the home of the brave, ...
The stars are hiding in their clouds
The street lights are too bright
A man's kicking a woman, who's clutching his leg tight
And rush off to the home of the brave
Here's to the home of the brave, ...
And everyday you have to die some, cry some, die some
And everyday you have to die some, cry some, and die
In the home of the brave - home of the brave

HERBIE HANCOCK lyrics - Sister Moon
(Sting)
[Originally by Sting]
Sister moon will be my guide
In your blue blue shadows I would hide
All good people asleep tonight
I'm all by myself in your silver light
I would gaze at your face the whole night through
I'd go out of my mind, but for you
Lying in a mother's arms
The primal root of a woman's charms
I'm a stranger to the sun
My eyes are too weak
How cold is a heart
When it's warmth that he seeks?
You watch every night, you don't care what I do
I'd go out of my mind, but for you
I'd go out of my mind, but for you
My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun
My hunger for her explains everything I've done
To howl at the moon the whole night through
And they really don't care if I do
I'd go out of my mind, but for you
Sister Moon
DEF LEPPARD lyrics - Warchild
Warchild, your heart is broken
Your mind is breakin', it's such a shame
Warchild, your body's broken
Your woman's taken, it's not a game
People once shared your wisdom
Shared your memory, shared your dreams
Now your thoughts have all been shattered
What once was rhythm are now just screams
Warchild, I used to love you
The whole world loved you, we used to care
Warchild, your mind has been emptied
So all you do now is just sit n' stare
People once shared your wisdom
Shared your memory, shared your dreams
Now your thoughts have all been shattered
What once was rhythm are now just screams
Your lady's waiting, she's hesitating
Not knowing why
Warchild, the pain you're showing
The pain is knowing that you're gonna die
People once shared your wisdom
Shared your memory, shared your dreams
Now your thoughts have all been shattered
What once was rhythm are now just screams
DEAN MARTIN lyrics - South Of The Border
South of the border down Mexico way
That's where I fell in love when the stars above came out to play
And now that I wander
My thoughts ever stray
South of the border down Mexico way
Ah, she was a picture in old Spanish lace
Just for a tender while I kissed the smile upon her face
It was fiesta we were so gay
South of the border down Mexico way
Then she sighed as she whispered manana
Never dreamed that we were parting
And I lied as I whispered manana
For tomorrow never came
South of the border I jumped backed one day
There in a veil of white by the candle light knelt to pray
Ah, the mission bells told me that I must not stay
South of the border down Mexico way
I yi yi yi I I I I
I yi yi yi
I yi yi yi
GOLDEN EARRING lyrics - The Hammer Of Love
(G. Kooymans/B. Hay)
I'm a-runnin' on empty and my good-luck charm
It's like a mojo workin' `gainst this heart of mine
Just a split second for my heart to know
It wouldn't take long to fall for you
And it hurts like hell
And I know it shows
Taking me down with a single blow
That's what you get when you been hit
By the hammer of love,
Hit, by the hammer of love
Hit, by the hammer of love
The hammer of love, the hammer of love
I'm defying all the laws of gravity
Floating on air and with sympathy
The doctor says you're runnin' outta luck
Cause you've been struck by the hammer of love
And it hurts like hell
And I know it shows
Taking me down with a single blow
That's what you get when you been hit
By the hammer of love
Hit, by the hammer of love
Hit, by the hammer of love
The hammer of love, the hammer of love
Right on the head
Like a ton of bricks
It's like a ringing the bell
Yeah, and you know, you know
That it hurts like hell
And I know it shows
Taking me down with a single blow
You've been hit by the hammer of love
You've been hit by the hammer of love
The hammer of love, the hammer of love
THE KINGSTON TRIO lyrics - Goo Ga Gee
(Mike Settle)
Well, the Goo Ga Gee is a mighty funny bird. He sings the best song that you ever, ever heard.
He learned this song from a little baby 'cause ev'ry little baby goes "Goo ga gee."
Well, the Goo Ga Gee is from the Milky Way. It flies down to earth ev'ry other day.
It hides in the corner where you can not see and as he flies away he sings, "Goo ga gee."
Well, the Goo Goo Ga Ga, Goo Goo Ga Ga, Goo Ga Gee, the Goo Ga Gee is the bird for me
And if you think my song is a little crazy, it's only 'cause you never sing the Goo Ga Gee.
[Repeat first verse]

BARRY MANILOW lyrics - Somewhere Down The Road
We had the right love
At the wrong time
Guess I always knew inside
I wouldn't have you for a long time
Those dreams of yours
Are shining on distant shores
And if they're calling you away
I have no right to make you stay
[Chorus:]
But somewhere down the road
Our roads are gonna cross again
It doesn't really matter when
But somewhere down the road
I know the heart of yours
Will come to see
That you belong to me
Sometimes goodbyes are not forever
It doesn't matter if you're gone
I still believe in us together
I understand more than you think I can
You have to go out on your own
So you can find your way back home
And somewhere down the road
Our roads are gonna cross again
It doesn't really matter where
But somewhere down the road
I know that heart of yours
Will come to see
That you belong with me
Letting go is just another way to say
I'll always love you so
We had the right love at the wrong time
Maybe we've only just begun
Maybe the best is yet to come
Cause somewhere down the road
Our roads are gonna cross again
It doesn't really matter where
But somewhere down the road
I know that heart of yours
Will come to see
That you belong with me
GENTLE GIANT lyrics - It's Only Goodbye
Strange though we made it, in those days that were bare
What pulled us through them, something was there.
I can remember, drifting apart,
Thoughtless ways much stronger,
As the time grew longer
One for one not always,
Then you said to me...
(*)It's only goodbye, a smile and a cry, and suddenly over, when
(*)I think of you know, in kindness allow. My memory lingers, then
(*)It's only goodbye, my strength telling lies, Just facing what had to be.
Mixed my reflections, did we think it was real
Was it forever, fear not, just feel.
You had your troubles, yes I had mine.
Weren't we both for sharing, No not really caring,
I would realize that, when you said to me...
(*)REPEAT.....
IT'S ONLY GOODBYE.....
THE CARS lyrics - You Are The Girl
why don't you dream anymore
what's in the way
how come you point to the door
and ask me to stay
why don't you flash that smile
like you used to do
why don't you stay for awhile
it's up to you
you are the girl
that keeps me up at night
you are the girl
that makes me feel allright
you are the girl
you give me a twirl
you are the girl
in my dreams
why don't we talk anymore
what did i say
how is it what i came for
is floating away

NIRVANA lyrics - Sifting
Afraid - to grade
Wouldn't it be fun?
Cross, self loss (Alt: Cross, says floss)
Wouldn't it be fun?
Wet your bed
Wouldn't it be fun?
Sun felt numb (Alt: Some fear none)
Wouldn't it be fun?
Your eyes...
Teacher said,
Your eyes...
Teacher said,
Your eyes...
Teacher said,
Preacher said
"Don't have nothing for you" [x7]
Spell the smell
Wouldn't it be fun?
Search for a church
Wouldn't it be fun?
Wet your bed
Wouldn't it be fun?
Cold in coals
Wouldn't it be fun?
Your eyes...
Teacher said,
Your eyes...
Teacher said,
Your eyes...
Preacher said [x2]
"Don't have nothing for you" [x7]
"Don't have nothing for you" [x9]
AMERICA lyrics - Foolin'
You let me follow you around
It helped your status in the town
Well I didn't know your name
There's no truth in what you claim
So I think you better stop this foolin' 'round
I think it's called a lesson learned
When one so close suddenly turns
Leaves you standing on your own
Got no place to call your home
So I think you better stop this foolin' 'round
Now it's my time to make amends
Hope my message don't offend
And I hope this doesn't drive you round the bend
Leaves you standing on your own
Got no place to call your home
So I think you better stop this foolin' 'round
Yes, I think you better stop this foolin' 'round
Yes, I think you better stop this foolin' 'round
[Repeat and fade]
PINK FLOYD lyrics - Matilda Mother
There was a king who ruled the land.
His majesty was in command.
With silver eyes the scarlet eagle
Showers silver on the people.
Oh Mother, tell me more.
Why'd'ya have to leave me there
Hanging in my infant air
Waiting?
You only have to read the lines
They're scribbly black and everything shines.
Across the stream with wooden shoes
With bells to tell the king the news
A thousand misty riders climb up
Higher once upon a time.
Wandering and dreaming
The words have different meaning.
Yes they did.
For all the time spent in that room
The doll's house, darkness, old perfume
And fairy sories held me high on
Clouds of sunlight floating by.
Oh Mother, tell me more
Tell me more.
Aaaaaaaah
Aaaaaaaah
Aaaaaaaah
PET SHOP BOYS lyrics - Two Divided By Zero
(Two divided by zero, zero)
(Two divided by zero, zero, zero)
Let's not go home, we'll catch the late train
I've got enough money to pay all the way
When the postman calls, he'll deliver the letter
I've explained everything; it's better that way
(Divided by, divided by) I think they heard a rumour
(Divided by, divided by) Or someone tipped them off
(Divided by, divided by) It's better to go sooner
(Divided by, divided by) Than call it all off
We'll catch a plane to New York, and a cab going down
Cross the bridges and tunnels, straight into town
Tomorrow morning we'll be miles away
On another continent and another day
(Divided by, divided by) Let's not go home
(Divided by, divided by) Or call it a day
(Divided by, divided by) You won't be alone
(Divided by, divided by) Let's run away
(Two divided by zero, zero)
(Two divided by zero, zero, zero)
(D...d...d...d...d...divided by)
(Divided by, divided by)
(Z...z...z...z...z...zero, zero)
(Divided by)
(Turn of that noise...)
(Divided by, divided by) Someone spread a rumour
(Divided by, divided by zero, zero)
(Divided by, divided by) Better to go sooner
(Divided by, divided by) Let's run away
So why hang around for the deed to be done
You can give it all up for a place in the sun
When the postman calls we'll be miles away
On a plane to New York and another day
(Divided by, divided by) I think they heard a rumour
(Divided by, divided by) Or someone tipped them off
(Divided by, divided by) Better to go sooner
(Divided by, divided by) Than call it all off
(Divided by, divided by) Someone spread a rumour
(Divided by, divided by) And someone has to pay
(Divided by, divided by) Let's not go home
(Divided by, divided by) Let's run away
(Divided by, divided by) Let's not go home
(Divided by, divided by) Let's run away
MEN WITHOUT HATS lyrics - The Safety Dance
We can dance if we want to
We can leave your friends behind
'Cause your friends don't dance
And if they don't dance
Well they're no friends of mine
I say, we can go where we want to
A place where they will never find
And we can act like we come from out of this world
Leave the real one far behind
And we can dance
(Dancer)
We can go when we want to
The night is young and so am I
And we can dress real neat
From our hats to our feet
And surprise 'em with the victory cry
Say, we can act if want to
If we don't nobody will
And you can act real rude and totally removed
And I can act like an imbecile
I say, we can dance, we can dance
Everything out of control
We can dance, we can dance
We're doing it from pole to pole
We can dance, we can dance
Everybody look at your hands
We can dance, we can dance
Everybody takin' the cha-a-a-ance
Safety dance
Well, it's safe to dance
Yes, it's safe to dance
We can dance if we want to
We've got all your life and mine
As long as we abuse it
Never gonna lose it
Everything'll work out right
I say, we can dance if we want to
We can leave your friends behind
'Cause your friends don't dance
And if they don't dance
Well they're no friends of mine
I say, we can dance, we can dance
Everything out of control
We can dance, we can dance
We're doing it from pole to pole
We can dance, we can dance
Everybody look at your hands
We can dance, we can dance
Everybody takin' the cha-a-a-ance
Well, it's safe to dance
Yes, it's safe to dance
Well, it's safe to dance
Well, it's safe to dance
Yes, it's safe to dance
It's safe to dance...
GILBERT O'SULLIVAN lyrics - What A Way (To Show I Love You)
If and when you want me to
I'll be right there by your side
If and then you can't be sure
I can help you to decide
It's no secret any longer
Come to think it
It wasn't even at the start
In my heart where you reign
You'd have thought by now
That something would upset the balance
But as yet nothing has come along
What a way to show I love you
Underneath the floor above you
What a way to give each other a ride
What a way to face the future
Knowing you'll be always true to her
What a way to keep each other alive
I'm a great believer in
The thoughts of anywhere and how
I would say that all the things
You want are yours right here and now
Don't forget I've learnt my lesson
Had the opportunity to make many mistakes
In the days before you came
And although I find it hard
To let myself look foolish
It doesn't mean we don't have any fun
What a way to show I love you
Other than below or above you
What a way to kiss each other goodbye
What a way to start tomorrow
Knowing that there'll be no sorrow
What a way to keep each other alive
What a way to show I love you
Underneath the floor above you
What a way to give each other a ride
What a way to face the future
Knowing you'll be always true to her
What a way to keep each other alive

ZUCCHERO lyrics - Diamante (English Version)
(Zucchero - Musker / De Gregori)
Where do I go, when part of me is dying?
Somewhere they're baking new bread
There's peace in my life.
I'll be the rain, and you'll be heaven crying
And my eyes will be filled with flowers
Upon the snowfields of white.
And we will learn to walk together
Oh hand in hand, we'll walk together
Domenica.
Waiting for you, I'll drink a glass of wine
My heart will explode again
And we'll be larger than life
Time in the distance, will bring me to your side
From high up in heaven, diamante
We'll see peace with our eyes.
We'll see them walking, the brides and soldiers
Dancing the dark, they melt together
Against the twilight
And all together we'll lift our voices
Singing the time, to play at soldiers
is gone forever
Domenica.
Fai piano i bimbi grandi non piangono
Fai piano i bimbi grandi non piangono
Fai piano i bimbi grandi non piangono
We'll see them walking, the brides and soldiers
Dancing the dark, they melt together
Against the twilight
And all together we'll lift our voices
Singing the time, to play at soldiers
is gone forever
Domenica.
IGGY POP lyrics - Lust For Life
Here comes Johnny Yen again
With the liquor and drugs
And a flesh machine
He's gonna do another strip tease
Hey man, where'd you get that lotion?
I've been hurting since I bought the gimmick
About something called love
Yeah, something called love
Well, that's like hypnotising chickens
Well, I'm just a modern guy
Of course, I've had it in the ear before
'Cause of a lust for life
'Cause of a lust for life
I'm worth a million in prizes
With my torture film
Drive a G. T.O.
Wear a uniform
All on government loan
I'm worth a million in prizes
Yeah, I'm through with sleeping on the sidewalk
No more beating my brains
No more beating my brains
With the liquor and drugs
With the liquor and drugs
Well, I'm just a modern guy
Of course, I've had it in my ear before
'Cause, of a lust for life (lust for life)
'Cause of a lust for life (lust for life, oooo)
I've got a lust for life (oooh)
Got a lust for life (oooh)
Oh, a lust for life (oooh)
Oh, a lust for life (oooh)
A lust for life (oooh)
I got a lust for life (oooh)
Got a lust for life
Well, I'm just a modern guy
Of course, I've had it in my ear before
'Cause I've a lust for life
'Cause I've a lust for life.
Well, here comes Johnny Yen again
With the liquor and drugs
And a flesh machine
I know he's gonna do another strip tease
Hey man, where'd ya get that lotion?
Your skin starts itching once you buy the gimmick
about something called love
Oh Love, love, love
Well, that's like hypnotising chickens.
Well, I'm just a modern guy
Of course, I've had it in the ear before
And I've a lust for life (lust for life)
'Cause I've a lust for life (lust for life)
Got a lust for life
Yeah, a lust for life
I got a lust for life
Oh, a lust for life
Got a lust for life
Yeah a lust for life
I got a lust for life
Lust for life [repeat and fade]

RICKY NELSON lyrics - Stop Sneakin' 'Round
Well I hear that you've been sneakin' around on me
But honey that's not the way it's gonna be
Well I told you once, and I warned you twice
If you want my love you gotta be nice
And stop that crazy sneakin' around on me
Well let your conscience be your guide you know you're wrong
I'm not gonna take this messin' around to long
When you start cheatin' a love affair
It's not gonna get you anywhere
'Cause one of these days you'll up and find me gone
Well I know somethin' you better find out
Listen to what I've been talkin' about
When you started cheatin' on me
Foolin' around with TNT
Well I hear you've been sneakin' around the place
Somebody is tryin' to lead our love astray
Well I'll tell you somethin' you oughtta know
This messin' around's just gotta go
'Cause one of these days I'll up and walk away
Well I know somethin' you better find out
Listen to what I've been talkin' about
When you started cheatin' on me
Foolin' around with TNT
Well I hear you've been sneakin' around the place
Somebody is tryin' to lead our love astray
Well I'll tell you somethin' you oughtta know
This messin' around's just gotta go
'Cause one of these days I'll up and walk away
Well I hear that you've been sneakin' around on me
Well I hear that you've been sneakin' around on me
Well I hear that you've been sneakin' around on me
KINGDOM COME lyrics - Should Have Told You
Up til dawn, thinking 'bout last night
The morning comes, just don't feel so right
I was wrong, by not telling you
Should have said, what I wanted to
Must have been blind, as I looked all around
(My) Head was to big and my feet off the ground
As I look back on what I should have done
I never would let you leave again
[Chorus:]
I should have told you
I wanna hold on you
I should have told you
Since you're gone, it's an empty dream
What I have done, makes me want to scream
Where are you, where are you
I do need you so much
It's killing me, this reality
Must have been blind, as I looked all around
(My) Head was to big and my feet off the ground
As I look back on what I should have done
I never would let you leave again

TONY BANKS lyrics - Lion Of Symmetry
The stars ignite as the sun sets
And disappears in a river of dancing molten gold
In the moon rise the lion steps out tonight
No law, no sin, no rip it up and start again
No tears, no pain, no fear, no more chains
The office walls are closing in
As the telex machines perversely sing ignored
You're hypnotised and the lion roars within
No law, no sin, no rip it up and start again
No tears, no pain, no fear, no more chains
Why are we here? Not just to live and breathe
I cannot sleep, I need the beast
I need some action, I need destruction
I'll return to the wild, I'll return to the child I said
No sense of emotion adrift in the ocean
Here we are knee-deep in stars, knee-deep in stars
City nights caressed in a shroud
All is quiet and the silence is tentatively loud
You kiss the streets as you crawl on your hands and feet
No law, no sin, no rip it up and start again
No tears, no pain, no fear, no more chains
Why are we here? Not just to live and breathe
I cannot sleep, I need the beast
I need some action, I need destruction
I'll return to the wild, I'll return to the child I said
No sense of emotion adrift in the ocean
Here we are knee-deep in stars, knee-deep in stars
Moving in the darkness
Phosphorus eyes, jungle pride
A glisten of madness, a wave of sadness
The lion never sleeps, he's never at peace
He stalks so boldly, so nervous, so coldly
Vicious serenity, perverse intensity
Head bowed stretched proudly, embrace the earth
Same blood, same soul, same breath, same goal
The office walls are closing in, feel the sensation
Telex machines perversely sing raw communication
And you're hypnotised, a transformation
The lion steps out tonight
And you kiss the damp streets with ease
As you crawl on your hands and feet
Naked is the beast and the beast is forever free
You are the lion, you are the lion of symmetry
Golden warrior savage, savage creature
You are the lion, you are the lion of symmetry
No law, no sin, no rip it up and start again
No tears, no pain, no fear, no more chains...
SONNY BOY WILLIAMSON II lyrics - The Goat
(Sonny Boy Williamson II (Rice Miller))
There was an animal called a goat, he butted his way out of the Supreme Court
Said, "Let him go"
Yeah, said, "Let him go, because he butt so hard till you can't use him in our court no more"
Judge give him five hours to get out of town, he got five miles down the road and committed another crime
That's when the high sheriff happened to be coming along, and caught the billy goat eating up an old farmer's corn
High sheriff taken the billy goat to the county jail, but the desk sergeant cant said that "I'll go his bail, let him go"
A medicine doctor bought the billy goat, had a great big stage show
The billy goat got mad and butt him right down in the lonesome floor
So let him go, please, please, let him go, because he butt so hard till I can't use him in our court no more
Ooh
PAUL MCCARTNEY lyrics - Movie Magg
(Perkins)
Now, let me take you to the movies, Magg, so I can hold your hand.
Oh, it ain't that I don't like your house, it's just that doggone man
and that double barrel behind the door that waits for me, I know.
Oh, climb upon old Becky's back and let's ride to the picture show.
I only see her once a week and it's when my work is through.
I break new ground the whole week long but my mind's set straight on you.
And I polished up my old horse Beck, and she looks good, I know.
So climb upon old Becky's back and let's ride to the picture show.
Now won't you let me take you to the show so I can hold your hand.
Oh, it ain't that I don't like your house, it's just that doggone man
and that double barrel behind the door that waits for me, I know.
So climb upon old Becky's back and let's ride to the picture show.
Well, I break new ground all week long with my mind's set straight on you.
And every time I try to smile, my heart it breaks in two.
I slick myself for Saturday night cause there's one thing I know,
I'm gonna take my Maggie dear to the western picture show.
Now won't you let me take you to the show so I can hold your hand.
And it ain't that I don't like your house, it's just that doggone man
and that double barrel behind the door that waits for me, I know.
Oh, climb upon old Becky's back and let's ride to the picture show.
CHER lyrics - (This Is) A Song For The Lonely
When you're standing on the edge of nowhere
There's only one way up
So your heart's got to go there
Through the darkest night
See the light shine bright
When heroes fall in love or war
They live forever
[Chorus:]
This is a song for the lonely
Can you hear me tonight
For the broken hearted, battle scared
I'll be by your side
This is a song for the lonely
When your dreams won't come true
Can you hear this prayer
'Coz someone's there for you
Well love don't need a reason
She can pick you up
Or leave you bleeding
I've seen a strong man cry
I know the reason why
We all forgive, we all forget
We just keep believing
[Chorus]
So let it find you
Where ever you may go
I'm right beside you
Don't have to look no more
You don't have to look no more, oh no
This is a song for the lonely
And that's not only you
Through the darkest night
Gonna see the light
Love don't need a reason
Just to leave you bleeding
But you know inside
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
JOY DIVISION lyrics - Ice Age
I've seen the real atrocities,
Buried in the sand,
Stockpiled safety for a few,
While we stand holding hands.
I'm living in the Ice age,
I'm living in the Ice age,
Nothing will hold,
Nothing will fit,
Into the cold,
It's not an eclipse.
Living in the Ice age,
Living in the Ice age,
Living in the Ice age.
Searching for another way,
Hide behind the door,
We'll live in holes and disused shafts,
Hopes for little more.
I'm living in the Ice age,
I'm living in the Ice age,
Nothing will hold,
Nothing will fit,
Into the cold,
No smile on your lips,
Living in the Ice age,
Living in the Ice age,
Living in the Ice age...

THE BEATLES lyrics - Honey Don't
(Perkins)
Well how come you say you will when you won't
Say you do, baby, when you don't?
Let me know honey how you feel
Tell the truth now, is love real?
But ah ah well honey don't, well honey don't
Honey don't, honey don't, honey don't
I say you will when you won't, ah ah, honey, don't
Well I love you, baby, and you ought to know
I like the way you wear your clothes
Everything about you is so doggone sweet
You got that sand all over your feet
But ah ah well honey don't, honey don't
Honey don't, honey don't, honey don't
I say you will when you won't, ah ah, honey, don't
[Ah, rock on George, one time for me.
I feel fine.
I said.]
Well sometimes I love you on a Saturday night
Sunday morning you don't look right
You've been out painting the town
Ah ah baby, been stepping around
But ah ah well honey don't, I said honey don't
Honey don't, honey don't, honey don't
I say you will when you won't, ah ah, honey, don't
[Ah, rock on George, for Ringo one time.]
Well honey don't, well honey don't
I say you will when you won't, ah ah, honey, don't
DIRE STRAITS lyrics - Private Investigations
It's a mystery to me - the game commences
for the usual fee - plus expenses
confidential information - it's not a public inquiry
I go checking out the reports - digging up the dirt
you get to meet all sorts in this line of work
treachery and treason - there's always an excuse for it
and when I find the reason I still can't get used to it
And what have you got at the end of the day?
what have you got to take away?
a bottle of whisky and a new set of lies
blinds on the windows and a pain behind the eyes
Scarred for life - nocompensation
private investigations
LYLE LOVETT lyrics - I Can't Love You Anymore
(Lyle Lovett)
This Georgia road is red
The Georgia sky is blue
And it looks just like the sky
That carried me to you
The good Lord up in heaven knows
What I've been going through
And he's whispering to me
That I'll get over you
My angel in distress
You look OK to me
I'll send you my address
I could easily stay with you
On your side of heaven's door
'Cause I don't love you any less
But I can't love you anymore
It's Tuscaloosa, Birmingham
Or Baton Rouge
Hell I don't know just where I'm at
To tell the truth
But the good Lord up in heaven knows
What you've been going through
And he's whispering to me
That he'll take care of you
My angel in distress
You look OK to me
I'll send you my address
When I know what it will be
I could easily stay with you
On your side of heaven's door
'Cause I don't love you any less
But I can't love you anymore
My angel in distress
You look OK to me
I'll send you my address
When I know what it will be
I could easily stay with you
On your side of heaven's door
'Cause I don't love you any less
But I can't love you anymore
I don't love you any less
But I can't love you anymore

RINGO STARR lyrics - Photograph
(Richard Starkey and George Harrison)
Ev'ry time i see your face,
It reminds me of the places we used to go.
But all i got is a photograph
And i realise you're not coming back anymore.
I thought i'd make it the day you went away,
But i can't make it
Till you come home again to stay-yi-yay-yi-yay.
I can't get used to living here,
While my heart is broke, my tears i cried for you.
I want you here to have and hold,
As the years go by and we grow old and grey.
Now you're expecting me to live without you,
But that's not something that i'm looking forward to.
I can't get used to living here,
While my heart is broke, my tears i cried for you.
I want you here to have and hold,
As the years go by and we grow old and grey.
Ev'ry time i see your face,
It reminds me of the places we used to go.
But all i got is a photograph
And i realise you're not coming back anymore.
Ev'ry time i see your face,
It reminds me of the places we used to go.
But all i got is a photograph
And i realise you're not coming back anymore.
Ev'ry time i see your face,
It reminds me of the places we used to go.
But all i got is a photograph
And i realise you're not.
TOTO lyrics - The Road Goes On
Not by way of an apology
For the things that I have done
Do I set my boat upon the sea
So like thunder I am breaking free
In the landscape of the heart
It's hard to tell what's really taken me
Now I see it all through different eyes
This emotion can't be wrong
Past the mountains under empy skies
And the road goes on and on...
I've been living through this poetry
Tangled words and worn out prose
Love is needing, love is bleeding me
Now I see it all through different eyes
This emotion can't be wrong
Past the mountains under empty skies
And the road goes on...
[Instrumental brake]
Now I see it all through different eyes
This emotion can't be wrong
Past the mountains under empty skies
And the road goes on...
Now I see it all through different eyes
Where I'm going, where I've gone
All I know - I'm still surprised
That the road goes on and
GILBERT O'SULLIVAN lyrics - Get Down
Told you once before
And I won't tell you no more
Get down, get down, get down
You're a bad dog baby
But I still want you 'round
You give me the creeps
When you jump on your feet
So get down, get down, get down
Keep your hands to yourself
I'm strictly out of bounds
Once upon a time I drank a little wine
Was as happy as could be, happy as could be
Now I'm just like a cat on a hot tin roof
Baby what do you think you're doin' to me
Told you once before
And I won't tell you no more
So get down, get down, get down
You're a bad dog baby
But I still want you 'round around
I still want you around
Aye aye aye
I don't give a damn
And I'd like you if you can to
Get down, get down, get down
You're bad dog baby
But I still want you 'round
Once upon a time I drank a little wine
Was as happy as could be, happy as could be
Now I'm just like a cat on a hot tin roof
Baby what do you think you're doin' to me
Told you once before
And I won't tell you no more
So get down, get down, get down
You're a bad dog baby
But I still want you 'round around
EMMYLOU HARRIS lyrics - Light Of The Stable
(Steve Rhymer/Elizabeth Rhymer)
Hail, hail to the newborn king
Let our voices sing him our praises
Hail, hail to the guiding light
That brought us tonight to our savior
Ale, alleluia, alle, alleluia
Ale, alleluia, alle, alleluia
Come now, there it shines so bright
To the knowing light of the stable
Lean close to the child so dear
Cast aside your fear and the thankful
Ale, alleluia, alle, alleluia
Ale, alleluia, alle, alleluia

RICKY NELSON lyrics - I Got A Feeling
Well I've got a feeling
That I'm gonna get you
Say I've got a little feeling
That it won't be long
'Til I hold you in my arms and, baby,
that's where you belong
Well I've got a feeling
That you think about me
Well I've got a little feeling
and I hope it's true
'Cause nobody else could want you so
and love you like I do
Well I got a feeling
That our love was meant to be
And there's a whole wild world of happiness
Just waitin' for you and me
So why don't you tell me
That you love me only
'Cause I got a feeling
that you really do
And I never had this feeling
'Til I fell in love with you

BILLY JOEL lyrics - Everybody Has A Dream
While in these days of quiet desperation
As I wander through the world in which I live
I search everywhere for some new inspiration
But it's more than cold reality can give
If I need a cause for celebration
Or a comfort I can use to ease my mind
I rely on my imagination
And I dream of an imaginary time
I know that everybody has a dream
Everybody has a dream
And this is my dream, my own
Just to be at home
And to be all alone...with you
If I believe in all the words I'm saying
And if a word from you can bring a better day
Then all I have are these games that I've been playing
To keep my hope from crumbling away
So let me lie and let me go on sleeping
And I will lose myself in palaces of sand
And all the fantasies that I have been keeping
Will make the empty hours easier to stand
I know that everybody has a dream
Everybody has a dream
And this is my dream, my own
Just to be at home
And to be all alone...with you
RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS lyrics - Right On Time
One shot all I need
I've got rhythm when I bleed
'Til death do us part
Break my heart so I can start
Supercalifragilistic
Kiss me in the futuristic
Twisted but I must insist
It's time to get on top of this
[Chorus:]
It's right on time
It's right on time
It's right on time
It's right on time it's right on time it's right on
time it's right on time
Lookin' fine you're lookin' fine get on 1999
It's right on time
Discard to bombard
Calling all you shooting stars
Holy cow bow wow wow
Now I'm here I'm nowhere now
Joan of Arc reincarnated
Maybe we could be related
So much blood to circulate
And so much space to decorate
Chorus
Plain and simple pain
I want to but I can't complain
Death row let us go
It's time to blow up for the show
All the world reverberated
Coming through we motorcaded
Vibrate when we operated
Turning up in solid stated
Oh Lord
CHRIS DE BURGH lyrics - A Celebration
Don't worry darling,
That's no forever in my eyes,
Just want to hold you for a while,
Nobody knows how it will go,
Spending this night together;
I can hardly believe it's true,
I can hardly believe it's you,
A celebration...
Turn it on and let it fly away,
And let's see what we can do,
Oh little darling, it's really something,
When it's me and when it's you;
I'm going to give you everything I have,
Until the night is through,
Did you ever believe in love?
Did you ever believe in love?
I've got a feeling,
I've got a feeling in my heart,
We'd be together from the start,
Something inside you just cannot hide,
Is waiting the time to show it;
I can hardly believe it's true,
I can hardly believe it's you,
A celebration...
Turn it on and let it fly away,
And let's see what we can do,
Oh little darling, ain't you something,
When it's me and when it's you;
I'm going to give you everything I have,
Until the night is through,
Did you ever believe in love?
Did you ever believe in love?
Well this is it!
Something inside you cannot hide,
Is waiting the time to show it;
And I can hardly believe it's true,
I can hardly believe it's you,
A celebration...
And this is it!
B. B. KING lyrics - Let The Good Times Roll
(Fleecie Moore / Sam Theard)
Hey everybody, let's have some fun
You only live for once and when you're dead you're done
So let the good times roll, let the good times roll
And live a long long
I don't care if you are young or old no no, get together and let the good times roll
Don't stand there moaning, talking trash
If you wanna have some fun, you'd better go out and spend some cash
And let the good time roll
Let the good time roll
I don't care if you young or old, get together and let the good times roll
Don't stand there moaning, talking trash
If you wanna have some fun, you'd better go out and spend some cash
And let the good time roll
Let the good time roll
I don't care if you young or old, get together and let the good times roll
Hey mister landlord, lock up all the doors
When the police comes around, tell them Johnny's coming down
Let the good times roll
Let the good times roll
And Lord I don't care if you young or old,
That's good enough to let the good times roll
Hey everybody!
Tell everybody!
That B. B. and Bobby's in town
I got a dollar and a quarter
And I'm just raring to clown
Don't let nobody play me cheap
I got fifty cents to know that I'm gonna keep
Let the good times roll
I don't care if you young or old
Let's get together and let the good times roll
SIMPLY RED lyrics - Money's Too Tight To Mention

My rent is due
My kids all need
Brand new shoes
So I went to the bank
To see what they could do
They said son - looks like bad luck
Got-a hold on you
[Chorus:]
Money's too tight to mention
I can't get an un-em-ploy-ment ex-ten-sion
Money's too tight to mention

To see what he could do -

But I'm unable to
So I called on my fa-ther fa-ther
Oh my fa-ther
He said

Money's too tight to mention
Oh mo-ney mo-ney mo-ney mon-ey

MEGADETH lyrics - One Thing
One thing
That I got for you
Is the one thing
That you never do
One thing makes you feel brand new
Is the one thing that your coming to
Just the one thing
Gets you in the mood
You call my number in the middle of the night
To tell me nothing else can make you feel alright
But it rings and rings you hang it up
And call me back again
One thing
That I got for you
Is the one thing
That you never do
One thing
That you got to choose
Is the one thing you can never lose
Just the one thing is your attitude
You call my name in the middle of the night
When your makin' love and it feels alright
But it's him not me
Can't you see a shot of reality?
I know what you do
I know what you want to do
I know when the lights go out
I know what you are gonna to do
One thing
That I got for you
Is the one thing
That you never do
Just the one thing gets you in the mood
Just the one thing its your attitude
One thing is one thing
Just the one thing
Oh

VINCE GILL lyrics - The Sun's Gonna Shine On You
(Vince Gill)
Well, it ain't hard to see you've got the blues
Come hold on to me, and I'll comfort you
A pretty little angel with a heavy heart
Well, tryin' to carry on is the hardest part
[Chorus:]
Love will fool ya, it'll do you wrong
Shout hallelujah when the clouds are gone
'Cause you know pretty baby, the sun's gonna shine on you
The sun's gonna shine on you
I miss that little sparkle on your face
That pretty little smile that has been replaced
Have a little faith, baby just be still
'Cause things are gonna be just the way they will
[Chorus:]
Love will fool ya, it'll do you wrong
Shout hallelujah when the clouds are gone
'Cause you know pretty baby, when you ain't lookin'
The sun's gonna shine on you
The sun's gonna shine on you
[Chorus:]
Love will fool ya, it'll do you wrong
Shout hallelujah when the clouds are gone
'Cause you know pretty baby, when you ain't lookin'
And you ain't ready, the sun's gonna shine on you
The sun's gonna shine on you

TOTO lyrics - Afraid Of Love
You stole my heart the moment you came to town
I said hello but you were gone when I turned around
You can't get away, can't get away, even if you try now
I wanna tell you but the words just can't be found
I like the way you move and just the way you are
I can't take anymore, 'cause girl, you're pushing too hard
You can't get away, can't let you go, what's a boy to do now
You got me asking myself how I survived this far
I gotta get away from you, girl
[Chorus:]
'Cause I've never been afraid of love 'till I met you
Never thought a girl could make me feel the way you do
Never been afraid of love 'till I met you
Ooh, yes you say
[Instrumental break]
I'll give you something that you never ever had
When I start to think about you, it makes me laugh
You took me by surprise, I saw it in your eyes, I never had a chance, girl
Now that I see what you are, it doesn't hurt so bad
[Repeat chorus]

DREAM THEATER lyrics - Perfect Strangers
(Ritchie Blackmore, Roger Glover and Ian Gillan)
Can you remember remember my name
As I flow through your life
A thousand oceans I have flown
And cold spirits of ice
All my life
I am the echo of your past
I am returning the echo of a point in time
Distant faces shine
A thousand warriors I have known
And laughing as the spirits appear
All your life
Shadows of another day
And if you hear me talking on the wind
You've got to understand
We must remain
Perfect Strangers
I know I must remain inside this silent well of sorrow
A strand of silver hanging through the sky
Touching more than you see
The voice of ages in your mind
Is aching with the dead of the night
Precious life (your tears are lost in falling rain)
And if you hear me talking on the wind
You've got to understand
We must remain
Perfect Strangers
QUEEN lyrics - These Are The Days Of Our Lives
(Queen)
Sometimes I get to feelin'
I was back in the old days - long ago
When we were kids, when we were young
Things seemed so perfect - you know?
The days were endless, we were crazy - we were young
The sun was always shinin' - we just lived for fun
Sometimes it seems like lately - I just don't know
The rest of my life's been - just a show.
Those were the days of our lives
The bad things in life were so few
Those days are all gone now but one thing is true -
When I look and I find I still love you.
You can't turn back the clock, you can't turn back the tide
Ain't that a shame?
I'd like to go back one time on a roller coaster ride
When life was just a game
No use sitting and thinkin' on what you did
When you can lay back and enjoy it through your kids
Sometimes it seems like lately I just don't know
Better sit back and go - with the flow
Cos these are the days of our lives
They've flown in the swiftness of time
These days are all gone now but some things remain
When I look and I find - no change
Those were the days of our lives yeah
The bad things in life were so few
Those days are all gone now but one thing's still true
When I look and I find, I still love you,
I still love you.
