AMY GRANT lyrics - Mountain Top



(Brown Bannister)



I love to sing and I love to pray

Worship the Lord most everyday

I go to the temple, and I just want to stay

To hide from the hustle of the world and its ways



[Chorus:]

And I'd love to live on a mountain top

Fellowshipping with the Lord

I'd love to stand on a mountain top

'Cause I love to feel my spirit soar

But I've got to come down from that mountain top

To the people in the valley below

Or they'll never know that they can go

To the mountain of the Lord



Now, praising the Father is a good thing to do

Worship the Trinity in spirit and truth

But if we worshipped all of the time

There would be no one to lead the blind



[Chorus]



Now, I am not saying that worship is wrong

But worship is more than just singing a song

It's all that you say, and everything that you do

It's letting His Spirit live through you



[Chorus]


THE JAYNETTS lyrics - Sally Go 'Round The Roses



Sally go round the roses (sally go round the roses)

Sally go round the roses (sally go round the pretty roses)



Hope this place can't hurt you (hope this place can't hurt you)

Roses they can't hurt you (roses they can't hurt you)

Sally don't you go, don't you go downtown

Sally don't you go-o, don't you go downtown

Saddest thing in the whole wide world

Is see your baby with another girl

Sally go round, oh Sally don't you go

Sally don't you go, Don't you go downtown

Oh, don't you go downtown

Saddest thing in the whole wide world

See your baby with another girl



Sally go round the roses (Sally go round the roses)

Sally go round the roses (Sally go round the pretty roses)



They won't tell your secret (they won't tell your secret)

They won't tell your secret, Oh no won't tell your secret

Sally baby cry, let your hair hang down

Sally baby cry, let your hair hang down

Sit and cry with the door closed

Sit and cry so no one knows

Sally baby cry, let your hair hang down

Sally baby cry, let your hair hang down

Saddest thing in the whole wide world

See your baby with another girl



Sally go round the roses (Sally go round the roses)

Sally go round the roses (Sally go round the pretty roses)

Sally go round the roses (Sally go round the pretty roses)



[Fade]



Sally go round the roses (Sally go round the pretty roses)

SMOKIE lyrics - Oh Carol



Well I was out cruisin', getting late and I was losin',

When I saw you walking my way,

So nonchalant, I bet you get what you want,

But so do I and I aint losing today.

Well your hips were swinging and your jeans were clinging,

You were driving me out of my mind,

On a hot afternoon when there's nothing to do,

Your not the sort of thing a fellow should find,

So I pulled on over, tossed your hair off your shoulder,

When you turned and you looked my way,

Oh you would have died or you'd have skinned me alive,

If I'd have said what I wanted to say,

So being polite said what you doin' tonight,

You said just so happens I'm free,

You got all the right curves and all the right words,

And that's alright by me.



Chorus:

Oh Carol you got me eatin' my heart away,

You got me countin' my nights and days,

Oh I am floatin' on the milky way,

Oh Carol nobody's done it before,

Oh baby you've opened the door,

Oh Carol you can do it some more.



Well if you're ready for this when we started to kiss,

She said hold on a minute or two.

Well naturally I knew it couldn't be me,

I said baby what's troublin' you,

She said I'm just sixteen if you know what I mean,

So we sat and we talked for a while,

And when we finally kissed you know she didn't resist,

And I must say she did it with style.



Chorus



Well I was out cruisin', getting late and I was losin',

When I saw you walking my way,

So nonchalant, I bet you get what you want,

But so do I and I aint losing today.



Chorus


SONIC YOUTH lyrics - She Is Not Alone



She is not alone

She is not alone today



She is not alone

She is not alone today



She is not alone

She is not alone today



She is not alone



To... day


RENAISSANCE lyrics - Black Flame



I am words, I am speaking

I never heard my conclusion

Lost the way in my confusion, in illusion

Lost inside the picture frame



I'm not to blame, I didn't see the black flame

I'm not ashamed, its poetry, the black flame

I'm rearranged, it's changing me, the black flame

Burns my blackened brain



I am strong, I am leaving

I never knew I'd feel the need so

Where to go, I'll turn the flow, I could not know

Screams inside the burning pain



It's spinning head, it's under hand-the black flame

It lies instead, I turned and I ran-the black flame

On me, it fed, I understand-the black flame

Burns my blackened brain



Run from me, don't you see

That we are one and I'm a part of you

Get away, any way

I'm still a secret in the heart of you

And I'm the burning in your soul



Now I'm weak, I am losing

I never thought I'd stop trying

I'm a lie, I'm just a sigh, just a crying

Just a symbol of the game



Suspended pain, I can not face the black flame

Intended fear, I can not trace the black flame

Extended reaching into space-the black flame

Burns my blackened brain

BETTE MIDLER lyrics - When A Man Loves A Woman



When he held me in his arms,

when he held me in his arms and said,

"Baby, baby, baby, you are the only one for me."



When a man loves a woman,

can't keep his mind on nothing else.

He'll trade the world

for the good thing he found.

Yeah, if she's bad, he can't see it.

She can do no wrong.

Turn his back on his best friend

if he put her down.



When a man loves a woman,

spend his very last dime

tryin' to hold on to what he needs.

Give up all his comforts,

go out and sleep out in the rain,

if she says, "Baby, that is how it's gonna be."



When a man loves a woman,

give up everything that he has,

tryin' to hold on to her precious love,

cryin, "Baby, baby please don't treat me bad."



When a man loves a woman

down deep in his soul,

she can bring him such misery.

If she's playin' him for a fool

he's the last one to know.

Lovin' eyes don't ever see.



So, this man says he loves me, he loves me.

He gives me everything, everything,

everything that he has,

tryin' to hold on to my precious love,

cryin', "Baby, baby, baby, don't you, don't you

treat me, treat me bad."

Ohhhh, oh I need him.



Yeah, when a man loves a woman

he can do her no wrong.

He could never hold another girl.

Why you tell me you love me, baby,

and run out ah-ah-ah-on the sly?

Baby, baby, this is a man's world.

No, no.

Oh, baby, change has got to come

in this man's world.

EARTH, WIND AND FIRE lyrics - Sunshine



(Maurice White, Al McKay & Philip Bailey)



Heavenly sunshine,

only you can stop the rain

Pouring in my heart, causing tears of pain.

All of your feelin', seems to make me glow

Like beautiful sunshine, that makes the flowers grow.



[Chorus:]

You're my sunshine, loving you is my dream

When I'm with you, I hear bluebells ring

And the beauty, only you can bring

Keep me smiling, my heart's filing away

Memories of a life with you

Take me with you, I'm the one who's

Gonna lift you, to your Shining Star.



You are my light, when dark days do appear

Bringing me sunshine

My heart has no more fear,

Birds in the air, they even sing your name

Spreading love's rainbow-an everlasting flame.



[Chorus]


STEVE WINWOOD lyrics - Help Me Angel



(Winwood/Jennings)



Help me angel

Plant my feet a little higher

Help me angel

I've been too close to the fire

Help me angel

Make my dream a little brighter

Help me angel

Help me turn on all the lights



You've seen all the sights

You've lived through all the nights

You've got something I have to know

'Cause I've still got far to go



Help me angel

'Cause it's so dark everywhere

Help me angel

Find the magic in the air



When sun's going down

And light leaving town

Something's shining deep in your eyes

Sunday morning, endless sunrise



You've got what I have to find

In the sunshine in your mind

NEIL DIAMOND lyrics - Long Gone



Say lady

Oh, you got to tell me

What it was came over you

You ain't the devil,

But you might as well be

For all the changes

That you put me through



Long gone, baby is what I'm gonna be

Long gone, pack up and save my soul

Hang on to whatever's left of me

Find me walkin' the long gone road



Want someone to believe in

Need someone that wants me, too

Don't want no lies and deceivin'

Girl, that's all I get from you



Long gone, baby is what I'm gonna be

Long gone, pack up and save my soul

Hang on to whatever's left of me

Find me walkin' the long gone road



Long gone, baby is what I'm gonna be

Long gone, pack up and save my soul

Hang on to whatever's left of me

Find me walkin' the long gone road



Long gone, baby is what I'm gonna be

Long gone, pack up and save my soul

Hang on to whatever's left of me

Find me walkin' the long gone road


TOM PETTY & THE HEARTBREAKERS lyrics - House In The Woods



(Tom Petty)



I'm goin' down to the house in the woods

See my little darlin'

I'm goin' down, out in the fields

With summertime comin'



Oh my love, what can I do

What can I do but love you?

For the rest of my days, the rest of my nights

What can I do but love you?



Summertime falls on the house in the woods

Back by the power lines

I ain't got a neighbor for nine or ten miles

Back in the tall pines



And hey, now baby, what can I do?

What am I goin' to do but trust you?

The rest of my nights, the rest of my days

What can I do but love you?



Hey now baby, what can I do?

What am I goin' to do but love you

For the rest of my days, the rest of my nights

What could I do but love you?

L. L. COOL J lyrics - Every Sip



[LL Cool J]

(Sip somethin)

Uhh, sip somethin

(Sip somethin)

I wouldn't drink that, if I was you



[Chorus + (LL Cool J)]

With every sip of my drink (uhh)

I get a little bit closer (uh-huh)

And when I'm tryin to re-think (yeah)

I can't really get focused (uh, uh)

I wasn't tryin to be mean

I can see that it's hopeless (uhh)

Cause your persistance overpowers me

I know you rollin out with me



[Verse One]

I was stayin at the Shore Club, leanin in the red room

Seen this tan mami, she was fresh off the sand dunes

Big bottles and models and poom-pooms

Surroundin my table, watchin me like cable

My Dolce hat was low, Versace shades

Had the Prada shoes on cause the world is a stage

Lah-lah in the air, it's a sky bar affair

The glamorous life, I had my glass in the air

When my eyes connected with somethin real real nice

Like she finished her drink and started chewin on my ice

Her smile was bananas, teeth was pearly white

That's when I realized it'll be a long night

The vibe was right, she was laced in all white

Her French manicure traced the crown on my mic

You ever try to focus, resist with all your might

But every sip you take pulls you deeper in the hype



[Chorus + (different ad libs)]



[Verse Two]

I'm talkin tan lines, belly rings and things

DJ rubbin my thing, makin my head swing

All the honies was schemin..

cause the rocks in my ears was gleamin, oh God I must be dreamin

My vision was blurry, the party was rockin

The tools was knockin, honey wanna get it poppin

Try my best to chill, she was fresh out of Brazil

People was walkin by makin our drinks filled

What would you do, if you was a Don

in a position to wild out with a Brazilian blonde?

Or maybe you a honey and it's hard to keep calm

Cause you sippin on somethin and homeboy's the bomb

You dancin in your seat, and singin along

And every sip makes you feel like you need to perform

The party is packed, it's just a little too warm

But you take another sip to prove that you strong



[Chorus + (different ad libs)]



[LL] Take it to the bridge



[Interlude + (LL Cool J)]

I can't call it, I can't tell

Honestly, I'm drunk as hell (uh-huh)

And me, I can not believeeeee (lay back baby)

This night out is windin down (uhh)

You keep buyin all these rounds for meeeeee (aww man)

I know what you want from me (yeah)

I know what you want



[Chorus - repeat 2x (w/ different ad libs)]



[Outro + (LL Cool J)]

Rollin out with me (roll out)

Rollin out with me (uhh, roll out)

Roll out (roll out)

Yeahhh (uhh, uhh, roll out)

(uhh, uhh, roll out)

(uhh, uhh, roll out)

(uhh, uhh, roll out)

(uhh, uhh, roll out, yeah)

(Yo Timbo! Bar's on you baby, hahahaha)

(YEAH!)


U. D.O. lyrics - No Limits



One life - never been a riddle

Black nights - live it to the max

It's all extremely done



No way - to colonise the middle

Ride hard - desperadoes at your back

Under a blood red sun



In this world - up to us

We stand or we fall - yeah



We got no limits - no hideaway

We got no limits - live today

We got no limits - the way to stay

We got no limits - no limits all the way



Gear up - life is what we make it

Rock hard - shaft it to the top

We've only just begun



Sun's up - we're gonna do some shakin'

Break out - we give it all we got

Make way 'cause here we come



In this world we decide

To answer the call - yeah



We got no limits, ...



Power 'n' riches 'n' rank

Mean nothing at all

Render the game to the en

Once and for all - once and for all - yeah



We got no limits, ...



We got no limits - no hideaway

We got no limits - live today

We got no limits - the way to stay

We got no limits



Ev'rybody live the life


PAUL MCCARTNEY lyrics - That Was Me



(Paul McCartney)



That was me, in the scout camp, in the school play

Spade and bucket by the sea, that was me



That was me, playing conkers at the bus stop

On a blanket in the blue bells, that was me



The same me that stands here now

When I think that all this stuff

Can make a life that's pretty hard to take it in, that was me



Well that was me, royal iris, on the river

Mersy beat n' with the band, that was me



Yeah that was me, sweating cobwebs under contract

In the cellar, on TV, that was me



The same me that stands here now

If fate agreed that all of this

To make a lifetime, who am I to disagree, that was me



That was me, accapella at the alter

in the middle of the picture, that was me



That was me at the party, sweatin' cobwebs

In a cellar on TV ya that was me



The same me that stands here now

When I think that all this stuff

Can make a life that's pretty hard to take it in, that was me

That was me, ya, that was me!


GERRY AND THE PACEMAKERS lyrics - Don't Let The Sun Catch You Crying



(Marsden - Marsden - Chadwick - Maguire)



Don't let the sun catch you cryin'

The night's the time for all your tears

Your heart may be broken tonight

But tomorrow in the morning light

Don't let the sun catch you cryin'



The night-time shadows disappear

And with them go all your tears

For the morning will bring joy

For every girl and boy

So don't let the sun catch you cryin'



We know that cryin's not a bad thing

But stop your cryin' when the birds sing



It may be hard to discover

That you've been left for another

But don't forget that love's a game

And it can always come again

Oh don't let the sun catch you cryin'

Don't let the sun catch you cryin', oh no

Oh, oh, oh


LUTHER VANDROSS lyrics - Isn't There Someone



Another sad day, another lonely day

For all we know some people only cry

They have no good times, no poetry rhymes

They don't know how or when or if or why

Why the goodness never stays

Or why love didn't come again today



Isn't there someone who knows they're in trouble

Isn't there someone who sees

I'll be the someone who cares that you're dying for love

I can be the someone that you need



I know you dream at night and lay your feelings down

And you wish your life could be more like your dreams

What a moonlit sound, your voice is not too loud

But somehow I hear it coming through to me

I pray you hang on to your dream

And I hope it gives you all the love you need

You need



Isn't there someone who knows that you're hurting

Is there someone to believe

Well, I'll be the someone who cares that you're dying for love

I can be the someone that you need



Don't you miss love, I know I often do

That's why I'm pulling you closer to me

But like anything you can't see

It's just a little harder to believe



Isn't there someone who loves you completely

Isn't there someone like me

Well, I'll be the someone who cares that you're dying for love

I can be the someone that you need

I can be the someone that you need

DAVID BOWIE lyrics - Golden Years



Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop

Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop

Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop



Don't let me hear you say life's

taking you nowhere,

angel



Come get up my baby

Look at that sky, life's begun

Nights are warm and the days are young

Come get up my baby



[CHORUS]

There's my baby lost that's all

Once I'm begging

you save her little soul

Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop

Come get up my baby



Last night they loved you,

opening doors

and pulling some strings, angel

Come get up my baby

In walked luck and you looked in time

Never look back, walk tall,

act fine

Come get up my baby



I'll stick with you baby for a thousand years

Nothing's gonna touch you in these golden years, gold

Golden years, gold whop whop whop

Come get up my baby



Some of these days, and it won't be long

Gonna drive back down

where you once belonged

In the back of a dream car

twenty foot long

Don't cry my sweet,

don't break my heart

Doing all right,

but you gotta get smart

Wish upon, wish upon, day upon day, I believe oh lord

I believe all the way

Come get up my baby



[CHORUS]



Don't let me hear you say life's

taking you nowhere,

angel



Come get up my baby

Run for the shadows, run for the shadows

Run for the shadows in these golden years



I'll stick with you baby for a thousand years

Nothing's gonna touch you in these golden years, gold

Golden years, gold whop whop whop [Repeat]


B. B. KING lyrics - Blues Before Sunrise



(Leroy Carr)



I have the blues before sunrise, tears standing in my eyes

I have the blues before sunrise, tears standing in my eyes

It was a miserable feeling, now babe, a feeling I do despise



I have to leave, leave you baby, because you know you done me wrong

I have to leave you baby, because you know you done me wrong

I'm gonna pack up and leave you darling and break up my happy home



I have to leave, leave you baby, I'm gonna leave you all alone

I'm gonna leave you baby, I'm gonna leave you all alone

I'm gonna pack up and leav you darling, because you know you done me wrong



Well now goodbye, goodbye baby, I'll see you on some rainy day

Well now goodbye baby, I'll see you on some rainy day

You can go ahead now little darling, 'cause I want you to have your way


DAVID COVERDALE lyrics - Whitesnake



In the shadows of the dark night,

You need a woman by your side..

She'll help you make it in the cold light

And keep you warm an' satisfied



If you want somemore lovin'

Drive you out of your mind

Give a little sweetness and sugar

Just make it sure she understands...



White skin women keep me howlin' for more

Brown skin honey, I love



Got a whitesnake mama

You wanna shake it mama

Got a whitesnake mama

Come an' let it crawl on you,

Just enough to see ya through



You want to find a little angel

Sweet surrender in her eyesv Broke down heart through morning

To the moon is on the rise



Night time is the right time

For rolling on the silent gloves

Daytime, nighttime, anytime is the right time

Stealin' round and makin' some love...



White skin women keep me howlin' for more

Brown skin honey, I love



Got a whitesnake mama

You wanna shake it mama

Got a whitesnake mama

Come an' let it crawl on you,

Just enough to see ya through



Listen...



Back door man ain't done nothing,

But creep around the door..

When you see his woman weepin'

You know the snake is there for more



Day time, night time is the right time

For rolling on the silent gloves

Night time is the right time

Make it sure you're the only one



White skin women keep me howlin' for more

Brown skin honey, I love



Got a whitesnake mama,

You wanna shake it mama

Got a whitesnake mama

Come an' let it crawl on you,

And you, and you...



Got a whitesnake mama


BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN lyrics - My Lucky Day



In the room where fortune falls

On a day when chance is all

In the dark of fierce exile

I felt the grace of your smile



Honey, you're my lucky day

Baby, you're my lucky day

Well I lost all the other bets I made

Honey, you're my lucky day



When I see strong hearts give way

To the burdens of the day

To the weary hands of time

Where fortune is not kind



Honey, you're my lucky day

Baby, you're my lucky day

Well I lost all the other bets I made

Honey, you're my lucky day



Whoa!



[Guitar solo]

[Sax solo]



I've waited at your side

I've carried the tears you've cried

But to win, darlin' we must play

So don't hide your heart away



Honey, you're my lucky day

Baby, you're my lucky day

Well I lost all the other bets I made

Honey, you're my lucky day



Whoa!

10CC lyrics - Man With A Mission



There's a man at the top

And I know that he's pulling the strings

He's got his eye in the sky

And I know that he sees everything

There's a bug on the phone

Got his eye on the fly on the wall

But the man in the street doesn't know

'till the guillotine falls

Then he drops before you realize

Bullets hit you right between the eyes

I'm a man with a mission

Got my foot in the door

I'm the man with a mission

And I'm breaking the arm of the law

There's a voice in the air

And you welcome it into your home

But the snake in the grass

Is the power behind the throne

While you sit in your castle

The enemy's scaling the wall

If you don't make a sound

There'll be no one to answer your call

The evidence is there in black and white

Your number's up for grabs if you don't fight

I'm a man with a mission

Got my foot in the door

I'm the man with a mission

And I'm breaking the arm of the law

I'm a man with a mission

got an ace up my sleeve

I'm the man with a mission

And your trapped in the web that I weave

Open your eyes - see the lies while you dance in the dirt

Open your eyes - to the lies while you still got a chance

Open your mind - and you find that you're locked in a trance

Stars in your eyes - they make you blind this is not a romance

The evidence is there in black and white

How long will it take you to see the light?

I'm a man with a mission

Got my foot in your door

I'm the man with a mission

And I'm breaking the arm of the law

I'm a man with a mission

got an ace up my sleeve

I'm the man with a mission

And your trapped in the web that I weave I'm a man with a mission

Yeh, I'm a man with a mission

Ooh, I'm a man with a mission

I'm a man with a mission


CHRIS REA lyrics - The Closer You Get



Street lights start to come on

I know that it's time

Stop what you're doing

Meet those drinking friends of mine

First lady call me on the telephone

She said 'Get out and die young but I'm staying at home'

Now I believe in love, I believe that it's true

Know I'm defenceless when I look into blue

Sleepy eyes down an angel's face

Don't worry honey no-one's gonna take your place



The closer you get, the better you look

Throw me a line

'Cos the closer you get, the more that I see

We'll sure have a good time

I know what you're thinking, well how do I feel?

We'll there's no rules in my book

Except the closer you get, the better you look



Keep one foot in the showroom, one out of sight

Girl I've had some close ones but I'm doing all right

Gold on her fingers don't mean a thing

He'll do his best to hear that sweet lady sing

Now I got the time if you got the place

We've got the know how and you got the face

We got the power, we got no shame

Come over baby, I sure do wanna light your flame

'Cos the closer you get, the better you look

Throw me a line

The closer you get, the more that I see

We'll sure have a good time

I know what you're thinking, well how do I feel?

We'll there's no rules in my book

Except the closer you get, the better you look


KRAFTWERK lyrics - The Hall Of Mirrors



The young man stepped into the hall of mirrors

Where he discovered a reflection of himself

Even the greatest stars discover themselves in the looking glass

Even the greatest stars discover themselves in the looking glass



Sometimes he saw his real face

And sometimes a stranger at his place

Even the greatest stars find their face in the looking glass

Even the greatest stars find their face in the looking glass



He fell in love with the image of himself

and suddenly the picture was distorted

Even the greatest stars dislike themselves in the looking glass

Even the greatest stars dislike themselves in the looking glass



He made up the person he wanted to be

And changed into a new personality

Even the greatest stars change themselves in the looking glass

Even the greatest stars change themselves in the looking glass



The artist is living in the mirror

With the echoes of himself

Even the greatest stars live their lives in the looking glass

Even the greatest stars live their lives in the looking glass



Even the greatest stars fix their face in the looking glass

Even the greatest stars fix their face in the looking glass



Even the greatest stars live their lives in the looking glass

Even the greatest stars live their lives in the looking glass


TOM WAITS lyrics - Who Are You?



(Tom Waits/K. Brennan)



They're lining up

To mad dog your tilta whirl

3 shots for a dollar

Win a real live doll

All the lies that you tell

I believed them so well. Take them back

Take them back to your red house

For that fearful leap into the dark

I did my time

In the jail of your arms

Now Ophelia wants to know

Where she should turn

Tell me...what did you do

What did you do the last time?

Why don't you do that

Go on ahead and take this the wrong way

Time's not your friend

Do you cry. Do you pray

Do you wish them away

Do you still leave nothing

But bones in the way

Did you bury the carnival

Lions and all

Excuse me while I sharpen my nails

And just who are you this time?

You look rather tired

(Who drinks from your shoe)

Are you pretending to love

Well I hear that it pays well

How do your pistol and your Bible and your

Sleeping pills go?

Are you still jumping out of windows in expensive clothes?



Well I fell in love

With your sailor's mouth and your wounded eyes

You better get down on the floor

Don't you know this is war

Tell me who are you this time?

Tell me who are you this time?


BEE GEES lyrics - E. S.P



Dark is the night

High is the fire

Touches the sky

Love with no shape or form

I am in your mind's eye

Just let your dreams run wild



Somewhere, out across the nation

Someone, waiting in the shadows

Listen, I don't wanna hear

Return to, sender

Calling, I can see the future

Someday, signal with a single motion

Show me you believe in someone, somewhere



Oh baby you, you give, me

You give me the runaround

Just another night, with, you

You're on my mind

And we got love

And love'll take you higher and higher and higher

Higher and higher



(CHORUS)

E. S.P

I communicate with you

Tell me what it means to feel

What am I supposed to do

E. S.P

Nothing any words can say

Nothing that we know is real

But it'll take your breath away

Your breath away



Danger, suddenly an early warning

Suddenly the soul is burning

But I still believe in someone, somewhere



Baby you, give, me

You give me the runaround

Just another night with you

I'm in your mind

And we got love

And love'll take you higher and higher and higher

Higher and higher



E. S.P

I communicate with you

Tell me what it means to feel

What am I supposed to do

E. S.P

And love'll take you higher and higher and higher

Higher and higher



Be prepared to make your sacrifice, tonight

Far beyond the point of no return, oh no



And we got love

And love'll take you higher and higher and higher

Higher and higher, higher and higher



(Repeat Chorus)


RICK SPRINGFIELD lyrics - It's Always Something (Itsalwayssomething)



(Springfield)



I look around me and I see what I wanted and what I settled for

Yeah, I've got the heart of a Joan of Arc but the soul of a gigolo.

I've been good at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

Anytime I stopped to smell the roses they drew blood from me.

Do you know what I mean?

You never ever get away clean. But it's alright,

Yeah, touchdown, turn around, flag on the play.



It's always something, you know it is, it's always something,

It's always something, everyday, it's always something.



When I was a kid the teachers and the priests said,

"Why do you let him run around like that?"

My father said, "If the boy wants to play guitar, I say we let him."

Through the hard years he was my rock

when I just could not win.

So it goes y'know my father died

just before my leaky ship came in.



Do you know what I mean?

You never ever get away clean. Oh, but it's alright yeah.

Down one, homerun, your dog steals the ball.



I step up to the table in the middle of my life

and I take my cards and I check them twice.

I've got a killer hand and I'm ready to stake my claim,

the cops raid the game.



...it's always something


AMERICA lyrics - Old Man Took



For the last time

I watched Old Man Took bait his hook

And then throw his line

Pick up his wine



He's a friend of mine

Known him all my life and his wife

'Neath the swayin' pine

And the clingin' vine

Just before he left



He said now young man

Take good care don't let the bugs bite

Please make sure to say a word at night

For all your brothers feeling blue

Blue, blue, blue

All the time



So I stayed awhile

Took my tea alone, called it home

Like a playing child

Running wild



Heard a bluejay call

Said we got you now

Hope you bow

To the old man's word

I'm sure you heard

Just before he left



He said now young man

Take good care don't let the bugs bite

Please make sure to say a word at night

For all your brothers feeling blue

Blue, blue, blue

All the time



Now young man

Take good care don't let the bugs bite

Please make sure to say a word at night

For all your brothers feeling blue

Feeling blue

Feeling blue

Feeling blue

Feeling blue

Feeling blue

Feeling blue

Feeling blue

Feeling blue...


ROBIN LUKE lyrics - Susie Darlin'



(Robin Luke)



I stood a-watchin' all night long

I stood a-watchin' all night long

I stood a-watchin' till you went away

You were a girl of many charms

Oh, how I loved you in my arms

I never thought that you would ever go

Because I loved you so



Oh-uh, Susie darlin'

I thought you knew

You were all the world to me

All my dreams come true



I stood a-cryin' all night long

I stood a-cryin' all night long

Cryin' and wishin' you'd come back to me-ee

Thinking of all the dreams we knew

Now that you're gone they won't come true

My heart is empty without you

Nothin' there but misery



Oh-uh, Susie darlin'

I thought you knew

You were all the world to me

All my dreams come true



Now-ow I stand a-watchin' all night long

I stand a-watchin' all night long

Knowing that life has nothing left for me-ee

I'll wait around most patiently

Hopin' you will return to me

'Til that happy day I will always be

Watchin' all night long



Oh-uh, Susie darlin'

I thought you knew

You were all the world to me

All my dreams come true

ERNEST TUBB AND LORETTA LYNN lyrics - Somewhere Between



(Merle Haggard - Bonnie Owens)



Somewhere between me and you

I love you so much I can't let you go and sometimes I believe you love me

But somewhere between your heart and mine there's a door without any key

Somewhere between your heart and mine there's a window that I can't see through

There's a wall so high it reaches the sky somewhere between me and you

[ piano ]

Somewhere between your heart and mine there's a love I can't understand

It's there for a while then it fades like a smile and I'm left in the middle again

Somewhere between...


R. E.M. lyrics - Hyena



Night time fell at the opening,

In the final act of the beginning of time.

Hyena take your role, the stage is set.

The town is safe again tonight



Hyena (I see the day ahead)

Hyena (and all that I've cried through)

Hyena (God knows you're doin' that, don't you?)



Hyena, sister look to your hand

Man you serve communal interest,

She'll tell you when and where and how and why you'd hurt

A beautiful young lady



Hyena (I see the day ahead)

Hyena (and all that I've cried through)

Hyena (God knows you're doin' that, don't you?)



The only thing to fear is fearlessness

The bigger the weapon the greater the fear

Hyena is ambassador to here



Night time fell like the closing

Meager pay, but recognition

Hyena crawls on his belly out

The town is safe again tonight



Hyena (I see the changes, man)

Hyena (Goin' on 'cross the way)

Hyena (I see my road ahead)

Hyena (Don't know if I should stay)

Hyena (I see you holding him,)

Hyena (and all that I've cried through)

Hyena (God knows you're doin' that, don't you?)

DAVID BOWIE lyrics - Heathen



Steel on the skyline

Sky made of glass

Made for a real world

All things must pass

Oo-o

Waiting for something

Looking for someone

Is there no reason?

Have I stared too long?

Oo-o

Oo-o

You say you'll leave me

And when the sun is low

And the rays high

I can see it now

I can feel it die

Oo-o

Oo-o


MICHAEL BOLTON lyrics - Next Lifetime



(Michael Bolton/Liz Sharpe)



Don't know why I never told you

There was something in your eyes that took my breath away

And every word I meant to say

Now I know I'd give my soul to you

Take you back in time and hold you

Just for one more day, so I wouldn't have to hurt this way

So I beg and plead, I'm on my knees

Gonna show you how long I can wait

I can't keep holding on if you're telling my heart it's too late



[Chorus:]

Next lifetime our love will be deeper

And I'll hold you sweeter

I won't waste so much time

Next lifetime I'll find you sooner

And I'll kiss you better

I won't lose you next time

Oh I will lay my heart on the line, next lifetime



I don't know what I was thinking

But giving you a part of me wasn't good enough

Never gave you all my love

I can't believe I was such a fool

All I needed was to prove to you I could feel like this

Could have said it all in our last kiss

Oh I beg and plead, I'm on my knees

I could never unmake my mistake

I can keep holding on but if somebody's taking my place



[Chorus]



Never knew how long the nights could be

Till you slipped right through my hands

How do I make you believe that I deserve a second chance

Take me back to the place where your heart was mine

If I could take you back in time

I will lay my heart on the line

I will lay my heart on the line


POWER STATION lyrics - Love Conquers All



In the beginning, darlin'

You made your first play

Living in a dream

Finding your way



Now it's for real

Learn from your feelings

Feel your resolve getting stronger with every day

Welcoming change



So wake up your heart and make a difference

Don't let your life and ambition just fade away

Make it real

And know that love conquers all



You can depend on it

Take a firm hold on your present,

Your past and your future

Don't lose your grip, hold on tight



Life ain't about winning, darlin'

It's how you play the game

Living in a dream - ain't that a shame



So wake up your heart and make a difference

Feel your resolve getting stronger with every day

Make it real



And know that love conquers all

You can depend on it

Don't make the same mistake

That you made over and over

Wake up, take hold of your life



Oh, oh, oh

Faint hearts don't make the grade

Go for it all



You know that love conquers all

You can depend on it


THE DAVE CLARK FIVE lyrics - Over And Over



(Robert James Byrd)



Ah-mmm, ah-mmm, ah-mmm, ah-mmm



Well, I went to a dance just the other night

Everybody there was there

I said over and over and over again

This dance is gonna be a drag

I said over and over and over again

This dance is gonna be a drag

I said over and over and over again

This dance is gonna be a drag



Ah-mmm, ah-mmm, ah-mmm, ah-mmm



All at once it happened

The prettiest in the world

I said a-won't you come over and a-talk to me

And be my girl

I said a-won't you come over and a-talk to me

And be my girl

I said a-won't you come over and a-talk to me

And be my girl



[Harmonica]



Ah-mmm, ah-mmm, ah-mmm, ah-mmm



She said she was sorry

And I was a little bit late

She would a-wait and a-wait and a-wait and a-wait

For her steady date

She would a-wait and a-wait and a-wait and a-wait

For her steady date

She would a-wait and a-wait and a-wait and a-wait

For her steady date



Ah-mmm, ah-mmm, ah-mmm, ah-mmm

IRVING BERLIN lyrics - When I Discovered You



[Algy's Verse:]

History proves

Since the world first began

Wonderful things have been discovered by man

Though to discover has not been my plan

I'm a discoverer too

Tho' I know my name

Won't be known to fame

This much is true



[Refrain:]

Columbus discovered America

Hudson discovered New York



Benjamin Franklin discovered the spark

That Edison discovered would light up the dark



Marconi discovered the wireless telegraph

Across the ocean blue



But the greatest discovery was

When you discovered me and I discovered you



[Stella's Verse:]

History proves

Since the world first began

Ev'rything great was not discovered by man

Girls can discover what men never can



I'm a discoverer too

Tho' I'll never be

Known to history

This much is true


THE ROLLING STONES lyrics - I Just Want To Make Love To You

See by the way that you baby talk

Know by the way that you treat your man

I can love you, baby, till the night train

RUFUS AND CHAKA KHAN lyrics - Please Pardon Me (You Remind Me Of A Friend)



(Brenda Gordon and Brian Russell)



Please pardon me, but I'm longing to speak

I hope you don't mind my staring

I don't mind, cause your face looks so kind

Seldom you'll find someone so daring



You remind me of a friend of mine

Ooh, I've lost (the) time, yeah



Everytime I see your face

You remind me of that someone

In fact, it's true, it's you

Runnin' right into you



I hope you don't mind, you look like a friend of mine

And it's seldom you find a face that's so kind

I hope you don't mind, you look like a friend of mine

And it's seldom you find a face that's so kind



Please pardon me, but I'm all into spirit

I hope you don't mind my starin'

I don't mind, cause your face looks so kind

Seldom you'll find someone so daring



Everytime I see your face

You remind me of that someone

In fact, it was you

Runnin' right into you

BONNIE RAITT lyrics - Big Road



Well I ain't goin' down that big long lonesome road

Pretty baby don't you hear me talkin'

No I ain't goin' down that big road by myself

If I can't carrry you baby

I'm gonna get me someone else



Alright boys

Well the sun is gonna shine in my back door some

My back door some, my door someday

You know the sun is gonna shine in

My back door some day

That big wind is gonna come up and blow my blues away



Now if you don't want me baby

Now why don't you tell me

Now why don't you tell me, tell me so

If you don't want me baby why don't you tell me so

It ain't like I'm a woman who ain't got no place to go



Play it right now

Now what good is a bulldog, if he won't fuss or

He won't fuss or fight pretty baby

What good is a bulldog, if he won't fuss or fight.

And what good is a man can't make his wolf stay all night


JETHRO TULL lyrics - A New Day Yesterday



My first and last time with you

and we had some fun.

wenT walking through the trees, yeah!

And then I kissed you once.

Oh I want to see you soon

but I wonder how.

It was a new day yesterday

but it's an old day now.



Spent a long time looking

for a game to play.

My luck should be so bad now

to turn out this way.

Oh I had to leave today

just when I thought I'd found you.

It was a new day yesterday

But it's an old day now.


DOLLY PARTON lyrics - Wait 'Til I Get You Home



(Dolly Parton/Mac Davis)



You never cease to amaze me

You can still make me crazy

Baby you can turn me on

With just your eyes

You're just so darn appealing



You stir up sexy feelings

Every man in the room

Would like to try you on for size



Wait 'til I get you home

Wait 'til I get you alone

Wait 'til I get my hands on you

Wait 'til I get you home sweet baby

Wait 'til I get you home



Oh baby you still make me

Feel feelin's that can take me

To places where I've never been before

Well honey I've got a feelin'

We'll make some shadows on the ceilin'

Tonight by candlelight behind closed doors



Wait 'til I get you home

Wait 'til I get you alone

Wait 'til I get my hands on you

Wait 'til I get you home sweet baby

Wait 'til I get you home



Your lovin' gets better

Each time we're together

It's always exciting and new

Each time we discover

We're still like young lovers

It's always been magic with you



Baby wait 'til I get you home

You just wait 'til I get you alone

Wait 'til I get my hands on you

Wait 'til I get you home sweet baby

Wait 'til I get you home

Wait 'til I get you alone

Wait 'til I get you home sweet baby

Wait 'til I get you home sweet darlin'

Wait 'til I get you home


LORETTA LYNN lyrics - I Pray My Way Out Of Trouble



(Loretta Lynn - Teddy Wilburn)



Many times my mind is wrapped up in trouble and my heart gets so heavy too

Sometimes when I sink so long I touch bottom

I kneel down to reach out and he pulls me through

I pray my way out of trouble and I ask my dear Lord to help me each day

I pray my way out of trouble and the dear nail scared hand wipes my teardrops away



The smallest prayer from the world's bigger sinner brings a smile to his sadden face

So I just go to him any time I am in trouble

Wash my heart in the waters of my Saviour's grace

I pray my way...

THE BEATLES lyrics - Two Of Us



(Lennon/McCartney)



["I Dig A Pygmy" by Charles Hawtrey and the Deaf Aids.

Phase one, in which Doris gets her oats.]



Two of us riding nowhere

Spending someone's

Hard earned pay

You and me Sunday driving

Not arriving

On our way back home

We're on our way home

We're on our way home

We're going home



Two of us sending postcards

Writing letters

On my wall

You and me burning matches

Lifting latches

On our way back home

We're on our way home

We're on our way home

We're going home



You and I have memories

Longer than the road that stretches out ahead



Two of us wearing raincoats

Standing so low

In the sun

You and me chasing paper

Getting nowhere

On our way back home

We're on our way home

We're on our way home

We're going home



You and I have memories

Longer than the road that stretches out ahead



Two of us wearing raincoats

Standing so low

In the sun

You and me chasing paper

Getting nowhere

On our way back home

We're on our way home

We're on our way home

We're going home



[We're going home,

you better believe it.

Goodbye.]


DEEP PURPLE lyrics - Kentucky Woman



(Neil Diamond)



Kentucky Woman

She shines in her own kind of light

She looks at you once in a day

And what's wrong is alright

And I love her,

God knows I love her



Kentucky Woman

She gets to know you

She gets to hold you

Kentucky Woman



She ain't the kind to turn

at the drop of her name

Well all the things she does

they turn you on just the same

And I love her,

God knows I love her



Kentucky Woman

She gets to know you

She gets to hold you

Kentucky Woman



I don't want much

The Good Lord's earth beneath my feet

A gentle touch

Cause that one girl in life is sweet and good

There ain't no doubt, I'm talking about



Kentucky Woman

She gets to know you

She gets to hold you

Kentucky Woman



Kentucky Woman she shines in her own kind of light

She looks at you once in a day

And what's wrong is alright

And I love her, yes I do, I love her



Kentucky Woman

She gets to know you

She gets to hold you

Kentucky Woman

Kentucky Woman

Kentucky Woman

Kentucky Woman

Unfuckwittable, see all we bust is rhymes and nuts

Oh yeah you'd probably be fuckin wit them

But nigga you'd never be fuckin wit us

Me, $hort Dog and B-Legit; see first of all homey we the shit

And all that other nonsense you other niggaz pop is irrelevant



[B-Legit:]

I rock the shit that's hot but got the ice to cool it down

In the town when I screw around nonbelievers layin down

Still activated but low, I'm seldom seen

With light green and other things that glow, man whattup doe?

Then I mack a straight dimepiece

Have her name on everything that a nigga lease, a savage

I keeps the deeds pink slips and cabbage, silly rabbit

See me and you drool like you're nothin but a fool

Ridin down the strip with B-Legit and Big Ant

Drinkin big gin, smokin big plants

My nigga big Bad Ass and B-Lah do it big

Drink the whole bottle bitch and give you a swig

But don't take it personal, that's just how we kick it

Pull out a big dick quick and make you lick it

And after you finish, make sure you do my nigga

Swallow all the cum bitch, and then you get a swigga

Somethin that'll quench yo' motherfuckin thirst, head first

Talk about yo' ass in a verse

Or get all in yo' face while I snap, bitch?



Oh you hoes better watch what you doin

Cause niggaz 'round here, we talk bad about bitches, f'real

[B-Legit:]

I bust a bad bitch daily afternoons

Stop by hair saloons, and make the sad bitch pay me

Expensive models, do they damn thang

Claim they got a little game, it ain't strange

To live tucked away, with no sidewalks, so bitch stay the fuck away

And you can go play, with yo' momma or somethin

THE ROLLING STONES lyrics - Champagne & Reefer



Yeah bring me champagne when I'm thirsty.

Bring me reefer when I want to get high.

Yeah bring me champagne when I'm thirsty.

Bring me reefer when I want to get high.

Well you know when I'm lonely

Bring my woman set her right down here by my side.

Well you know there should be no law

on people that want to smoke a little dope.

Well you know there should be no law

on people that want to smoke a little dope.

Well you know it's good for your head

And it relax your body don't you know.



Everytime I get high

I lay my head down on my baby's breast.

Well you know I lay down be quiet

Tryin' to take my rest.

Well you know she done hug and kiss me

Says Muddy your one man that I love the best.



I'm gonna get high

Gonna get high just as sure as you know my name.

Y'know I'm gonna get so high this morning

It's going to be a cryin' shame.

Well you know I'm gonna stick with my reefer

Ain't gonna be messin' round with no cocaine.

JETHRO TULL lyrics - Stuck In The August Rain



Brings jasmine tea on a painted tray

and bends to kiss my frown away.

But I'm still still stuck in the August rain;

stuck out in the cloudburst once again.



The cover's on, the coast is clear.

We're all battened down, only us here.

But I'm still still stuck in the August rain;

stuck out in the cloudburst once again.

She walks between the lines

and she can read my signs.



Stuck out in the August rain:

Out in the cloudburst once again.



Single-minded in my gloom.

I appear to revel in this darkened room.

But I'm still still stuck in the August rain;

stuck out in the cloudburst once again.

She walks between the lines

and she can read my signs.



Stuck out in the August rain:

Out in the cloudburst once again.


LOS LOBOS lyrics - Hearts Of Stone



(David Hidalgo/Louie Perez)



I travel down this lonely road

To see if I can pick me a rose

But all I find is a handful of thorns

In a place where blossoms should grow



[Chorus:]

Some hearts are made of stone

Some are cold, made of ice

Some beat all alone

Then there's those made of steel

Ones that don't even feel

Where are those hearts

Those hearts made of gold



I wandered down this lonely trail

Some twenty seven hours a day

But all I see are prints in the dirt

Where others tried to find their way



[Chorus]



How far will I go

To leave these fears behind

Oh, let those tears go dry

Yeah, won't stop until I can find

Oh, that heart of gold



[Chorus]


EMMYLOU HARRIS lyrics - Never Be Anyone Else But You



(Baker Knight)



There'll never be anyone else

But you for me

Never ever be

Just couldn't be

Anyone else but you



If I could take my pick of all

The boys I've ever known

Then I'd come and pick you out

To be my very own



There'll never be anyone else

But you for me

Never ever be

Just couldn't be

Anyone else but you



A heart that's true and longs for you

Is all I have to give

All my love belongs to you

As long as I may live



There'll never be anyone else

But you for me

Never ever be

Just couldn't be

Anyone else but you



I never will forget the way you kissed me

And when we're not together

I wonder if you miss me



For I hope and pray the day will come

When you belong to me

Then I'm gonna prove to you

How true my love can be



There'll never be anyone else

But you for me

Never ever be

Just couldn't be

Anyone else but you



Never ever be

Just couldn't be

Anyone else but you


BEASTIE BOYS lyrics - Something's Got To Give



(Beastie Boys/Caldato/Nishita)



I Wish For Peace Between The Races

Someday We Shall All Be One

Why Fight Yourself

This One is Called Rectify

There's Somethin' Coming To The Surface

There's Fire All Around

But This Is All Illusion



I've Seen Better Days Than This One

I've Seen Better Nights Than This One

Tension Is Rebuilding

Something's Got To Give

Something's Got To Give



Someday We Shall All Be One



Jesus Christ We're Nice


ELOY lyrics - Dreams



Close your eyes, you'll feel paralyzed

Colour shapes and shades all mingle



Suddenly all seems so bizarre

Faintly still you hear your heartbeat



Is it just an illusion?

or a mainline infusion?



Welcome dreamer!

Take shelter in this world of surreality

Gain wisdom from the astral world

Look inside the eye of the mind and find deliverance



Free from anxiety now

everything's clear in your mind

You found your sanctuary now

leaving all sorrows behind



In your dreams you'll be closer to yourself

Find a direction to your life

Dreams of good and dreams of bad

All experience you've had



Is it just an illusion?

or a mainline infusion?



Dreams recalled seem so true and real

waking up your lit with feelings

Emanating this new found might

days that once were grey are shining



Dormant emotions awake

tasting sweet to your mind

You see your goal way ahead

shining like a beacon in the dark



Forever is here and now

it's not a trick of the light

You hear a silence within

Peace and love reunite in everlasting burning light



You feel your aura expanding

bathing in virginal joy

Just like a flower in bloom

still in embryonic state crave for an identity



Free from anxiety now

everything's clear in your mind

You found your sanctuary now

leaving all sorrows behind



In your dreams you'll be closer to yourself

Find a direction to your life

Don't dispair when you feel you're in the shade

Wait and your dreams will lend a hand


BONNIE TYLER lyrics - Everybody Hurts



(Berry/Buck/Mills/Stipe)



[Originally by R. E.M.]



When the day is long and the night, the night is yours alone,

when you're sure you've had enough of this life, well hang on.

Don't let yourself go, everybody cries and everybody hurts sometimes.



Sometimes everything is wrong. Now it's time to sing along.

When your day is night alone, (hold on, hold on)

if you feel like letting go, (hold on)

when you think you've had too much of this life, well hang on.



Everybody hurts. Take comfort in your friends.

Everybody hurts. Don't throw your hand. Oh, no. Don't throw your hand.

If you feel like you're alone, no, no, no, you are not alone



If you're on your own in this life, the days and nights are long,

when you think you've had too much of this life to hang on.



Well, everybody hurts sometimes,

everybody cries. And everybody hurts sometimes.

And everybody hurts sometimes. So, hold on, hold on.

Hold on, hold on. Hold on, hold on. Hold on, hold on.

(Everybody hurts. You are not alone.)


JIMMY BUFFETT lyrics - Buffet Hotel



Well the train slipped into the station

A worn out steel blue soul

A relic from colonial days

When the French were still in control

Lorsque les Francais ont ete en controle



It's an outpost in transition

Where the faithful in the bar

Know from the whistle and the squeaking wheels

That the next stop is Dakar

La prochaine etape etait Dakar



Talk on the radio

Talk on the street

Talk of men with money loco from the heat

Talk about the rail band

Pickin up the beat

We lit that great reunion

With the headlights on the jeep



And there's history on that jukebox

Where the spies and scoundrels dwell

It was the place to go in Bamako

Direction Buffet Hotel

Direction Buffet Hotel



Now we're lost in the Sahara

Four hours north of Tombouctou

Lookin' for a nomad who knows

Or maybe some wandering Jew

Allons a Essakane, Syndou

(Get us to Essakana, Syndou)



Then we heard that Tuareg combo

We had come so very far

And we were welcomed out of history

By the wind, the sand and the stars

J'ai commence a le percevoir



Sand in the couscous

Sand in the wine

There was sand in my guitar case

Stories in my mind



Machine guns on the hilltop

Camels in my tent

Buried in a sandstorm

As the music came and went



Well we crawled out of that desert

And the storm erased our tracks

The Sahara showed her heart to us

And then she took it back



Well we made it back to Bamako

Before that last call bell

We bought rounds for all our newfound friends

We owned Buffet Hotel

Nous avons eu Buffet Hotel



I recall dipomats

And hookers

I saw strangers diggin' wells

And for that one great night in Bamako

We owned Buffet Hotel

FRANK ZAPPA lyrics - God Bless America



(Irving Berlin)



God Bless America

Land that I love

Stand beside her,

And guide her,

Through the night

With the light from Above

Yeah!


JERRY LEE LEWIS lyrics - Sunday Morning Coming Down



Well, I woke up Sunday morning

With no way to hold my head that didn't hurt.

And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad,

So I had one more for dessert.

Then I fumbled in my closet through my clothes

And found my cleanest dirty shirt.

Then I washed my face and combed my hair

And stumbled down the stairs to meet the day.



I'd smoked my mind the night before

With cigarettes and songs I'd been picking.

But I lit my first and watched a small kid

Playing with a can that he was kicking.

Then I walked across the street

And caught the Sunday smell of someone frying chicken.

And Lord, it took me back to something that I'd lost

Somewhere, somehow along the way.



On a Sunday morning sidewalk,

I'm wishing, Lord, that I was stoned.

'Cause there's something in a Sunday

That makes a body feel alone.

And there's nothing short a' dying

That's half as lonesome as the sound

Of the sleeping city sidewalk

And Sunday morning coming down.



In the park I saw a daddy

With a laughing little girl that he was swinging.

And I stopped beside a Sunday school

And listened to the songs they were singing.

Then I headed down the street,

And somewhere far away a lonely bell was ringing,

And it echoed through the canyon

Like the disappearing dreams of yesterday.



On a Sunday morning sidewalk,

I'm wishing, Lord, that I was stoned.

'Cause there's something in a Sunday

That makes a body feel alone.

And there's nothing short a' dying

That's half as lonesome as the sound

Of the sleeping city sidewalk

And Sunday morning coming down.


RICHARD LLOYD lyrics - Lost Child



(Lloyd)



Lost child / Wild child

Where you running to?

Did it break down in your hometown?

So you're making up for lost ground.

I see it's true.



Lost child you wild child.

I see your cup is full.

You're still rolling in the morning.

We're still rocking.

Everybody else, they're all through.



Lost child / Wild child

I'd like to run with you.

We'll hold hands and watch the moon glow.

Settle back and watch the river now.

Let it flow.

Yeah.



You're the lost child.

I'm the wild child.

I'd give it all to be with you.

You're the lost child.

I'm the wild child, babe.

I'd give it all to see it through.

Yeah.



Lost child / Wild child.

I see you rolling a bone.

Lost child, you wild child.

You say that nobody's home.

You're still running from your feelings.

Don't you know that there's a healing going on right now?

Lost child / wild thing.

I need to run with you.

We'll hold hands and watch the moon glow.

Setlle back and watch the river now.

Let it flow.

Yeah.


BEE GEES lyrics - Marley Purt Drive



Sunday morning, woke up yawning; filled the pool for a swim.

Pulled down the head and looked in the glass just to see if I was in.

Went up the stairs and kissed my women to make her come alive.

'Cause with fifteen kids and a fam'ly on the skids,

I got to go for a Sunday drive.

Fifteen kids and a fam'ly on the skids,

I got to go for a Sunday drive.



That's how they are, so I grabbed out the car;convertible fifty-nine.

Headed for the freeway; tried to find the Pasadena sign.

Ten miles and three quarters more I wasn't feeling any more alive.

'Cause with fifteen kids and a fam'ly on the skids,

I got to go for a Sunday drive.

Fifteen kids and a fam'ly on the skids,

I got to go for a Sunday drive.



I used to be a minstrel free with a whole lot of bread in my bag.

I used to feel that my life was real, but the good Lord threw me a snag.

Now I'm gonna be the same as me, no matter how I try.

'Cause with fifteen kids and a fam'ly on the skids,

I got to go for a Sunday drive.

Fifteen kids and a fam'ly on the skids,

I got to go for a Sunday drive.



Turned 'round the car and headed for home; I guess I realized my fate.

Ten miles and three quarters more I pulled up outside the gate.

Twenty more kids were stood inside and that made thirty-five.

'Cause with an orphanage full of thirty-five kids,

I got to go for a Sunday drive.

An orphanage full of thirty-five kids,

I got to go for a Sunday drive.



Sunday morning woke up yawning; filled the pool for a swim.

Pulled down the glass and looked in the mirror just to see if I was in.

Went up the stairs and kissed my women to make her come alive.

'Cause with an orphanage full of thirty-five kids,

I got to go for a Sunday drive.

And orphanage full of thirty-five kids,

I got to go for a Sunday drive.


ROXETTE lyrics - Jefferson



Jefferson was always out of luck

I remember when we both grew up

Jefferson got hit by a westbound truck

I guess that didn't make him look like a million bucks

That night when Sally really stole the show

And every boy was captured diggin' for gold

Poor old Jefferson was left in the snow



I'm gonna pray for Jefferson

Pray for Jefferson's soul

I'm gonna pray for Jefferson

Pray for Jefferson's soul



Jefferson is always on my mind

When him and me were runnin' out of time

Jefferson was sure enough left be behind

The cops came in and took him by surprise

That night when Sally really showed her game

The neighbourhood would never be the same

Poor old Jefferson got the blame



Ooooh

I'm gonna pray for Jefferson

Pray for Jefferson's soul

I'm gonna pray for Jefferson

Pray for Jefferson's soul

I'm gonna pray for Jefferson

Pray for Jefferson's soul

Yeah

I'm gonna pray for Jefferson

Pray for Jefferson's soul



I do believe he didn't do wrong

I say a prayer for someone I care for

I do believe he didn't do wrong

I say a prayer for someone I care for



That night where Sally really gave it all

And made us small boys look quite tall

Poor old Jefferson left the ball



Yeah

I'm gonna pray for Jefferson

Pray for Jefferson's soul

I'm gonna pray for Jefferson

Pray for Jefferson's soul

I'm gonna pray for Jefferson

Pray for Jefferson's soul

I'm gonna pray for Jefferson

Pray for Jefferson's soul

a-a-a-a-ah [X3]


NEW ORDER lyrics - Turn



It's a hard way to come home

You've got me on my knees

The walls are tumbling down

The falling night believes



Listening through months and years

I can't forget that you were here

I feel your presence everywhere

In the corner over there



Turn your eyes from me

It's time for me to go

Across the hills and over the sea

I want you more than I know



It's a wild world out there

And nobody gives a damn

In cold blood we don't care

And we don't want to understand



I'm sitting here alone at night

My sleepless eyes are open wide

What do you want me to say

What we had has gone away



The sky is high the road is long

Show me what I should have done

What do you want me to do

Take it all away from you



Turn your eyes from me

It's time for me to go

Across the hills and over the sea

I want you more than I know



Turn your eyes from me

It's time for me to go

Across the hills and over the sea

I want you more than I know


GENESIS lyrics - Tonight, Tonight, Tonight



I'm coming down, coming down like a monkey, but it's alright

Like a load on your back that you can't see, ooh but it's alright

Try to shake it loose, cut it free, just let it go, get it away from me.



Cos tonight, tonight, tonight - oh, I'm gonna make it right

Tonight, tonight, tonight - oh.



I'm going down, going down, like a monkey, ooh but it's alright

Try to pick yourself up, carry that weight that you can't see,

Don't you know it's alright

It's like a helter skelter, going down and down, round and round

But just get it away from me - oh.



Because tonight, tonight, tonight - oh

We're gonna make it right

Tonight, tonight, tonight - oh.



I got some money in my pocket, about ready to burn

I don't remember where I got it, I gotta get it to you

So please answer the phone, cos I keep calling, but you're never home

What am I gonna do

Tonight, tonight, tonight - oh

I'm gonna make it right

Tonight, tonight, tonight - oh.



You keep telling me I've got everything, you say I've got everything I want

You keep telling me you're gonna help me, you're gonna help me, but you don't

But now I'm in too deep

You see it's got me so that I just can't sleep

Oh get me out of here, please get me out of here

Just help me I'll do anything, anything

If you'll just help me get out of here.



I'm coming down, coming down like a monkey, ooh but it's alright

It's like a load on your back that you can't see,

Ooh don't you know that it's alright

Just try to shake it loose, cut it free, let it go

But just get it away from me

Cos tonight, tonight, tonight - oh

Maybe we'll make it right

Tonight, tonight, tonight - oh.



Please get me out of here

THE TEMPTATIONS lyrics - Since I Lost My Baby



The sun is shining, there's plenty of light (oh yeah)

A new day is dawning, sunny and bright (oh yeah)

But after I've been crying all night

The sun is cold, and the new day seems old

Since I lost my baby. (Since I lost my baby.)

Oh, since I lost my baby. (Oh, since I lost my baby.)



The birds are singing and the children are playing

There's plenty of work and the bosses are paying

Not a sad word should a young heart be saying

But fun is a bore and with money I'm poor.



Since I lost my baby. (Since I lost my baby.)

Oh, since I lost my baby. (Oh, since I lost my baby.)

Next time I'll be kinder (Next time I'll be kinder)

Won't you please help me find her (Won't you please help me find her)

Someone just remind her (Someone just remind her)

Of this love she left behind her (Of this love she left behind her)

Till I find her I'll be trying ta (Till I find her I'll be trying ta)

Everyday I'm more inclined ta

Find her

Inclined ta

Find her

Inclined ta find my baby

Been looking everywhere (ba--by)

Baby, I really, really care!



Oh, determination is fading fast (oh yeah)

Inspiration is a thing of the past (oh yeah)

Can't see how my hope's gonna last

Good things are bad and what's happy is sad



Since I lost my baby. (Since I lost my baby.)

Oh, since I lost my baby. (Oh, since I lost my baby.)

I feel so bad (since I lost my baby)

I feel so sad (since I lost my baby)

Everything is wrong

This heart is hard to carry on (since I lost my baby)

I'm lost as can be (since I lost my baby)

What's gonna happen to me?


CELINE DION lyrics - Amoureuse



(Eddy Marnay / Paul Baillargeon)



[Woman In Love]



Cent a l'heure

Sur un long ruban d'argent

La pluie fait briller la route allegrement

Et la radio, et la radio

Hurle a tout vent



(A hundred (miles) per hour

On a long silver ribbon

The rain make the road shinning

And the radio, and the radio

Plays out loud)



Ce jour la

Le bonheur etait au bout

Mon coeur avait l'air d'un fou

Je me revois

Foncant comme une fleche

Au rendez-vous



(On that day

Happiness was at the end

My heart looked like a fool

I see myself again

Rushing like an arrow

At the rendez-vous)



Amoureuse, amoureuse

J'avais mis ma vie en musique

Amoureuse, amoureuse

J'etais l'enfant d'une chanson



(Woman in love, woman in love

I had put my life in music

Woman in love, woman in love

I was a song's child)



Amoureuse (sur un ruban d'argent)

Amoureuse (la pluie fait le beau temps)

Et la radio, et la radio

Hurle a tout vent (sur un ruban d'argent)

Amoureuse (j'entends courir mon coeur)

Amoureuse (je vois courir les fleurs)

Et l'autoroute qui se deroule

A cent a l'heure



(Woman in love (on a silver ribbon)

Woman in love (rain makes out the good weather)

And the radio, and the radio

Plays out loud (on a silver ribbon)

Woman in love (I hear my heart running)

Woman in love (I see flowers running)

And the highway that unfolds

At a hundred (miles) per hour)



Amoureuse, amoureuse

J'avais mis ma vie en musique

Amoureuse, amoureuse

J'etais l'enfant d'une chanson



(Woman in love, woman in love

I had put my life in music

Woman in love, woman in love

I was a song's child)



En roulant j'avais fait dix fois le tour

De tout un roman d'amour pour un garcon

Qui me telephonait

Depuis trois jours



(While driving I made ten circles around

A whole love story for a boy

Who was calling me

For three days)



Amoureuse, amoureuse

J'avais mis ma vie en musique

Amoureuse, amoureuse

J'etais l'enfant d'une chanson



(Woman in love, woman in love

I had put my life in music

Woman in love, woman in love

I was a song's child)



Amoureuse, amoureuse

J'avais mis ma vie en musique



(Woman in love, woman in love

I had put my life in music)


JACK SCOTT lyrics - Cool Water



All day I face a barren waste

Without the taste of water

Cool water (water)(water)(water)

Old Dan and I, with throats burned dry

An' souls that cry for water (water)(water)

Cool (water)

Clear (water)

Water (water, water)



A-keep a-movin, Dan (water)

Don't you listen to him, Dan (water, water)

He's the devil not a man

And he spreads the burning sand with water (water)

Dan, can't you see that big green tree (water)

Where the water's runnin' free (water)

And it's waitin' there for me and you

Cool clear water (water, water)



Shadows sway and seem to say

Tonight we pray for water

Cool water (water)(water)(water)

And way up there he'll hear our prayer

And show us where there's water (water)(water)

Cool (water)

Clear (water)

Water (water)(water, water)(water)



A-keep a-movin, Dan (water)

Don't you listen to him, Dan (water, water)

He's the devil not a man

And he spreads the burning sand with water (water)

Dan, can't you see that big green tree (water)

Where the water's runnin' free (water)

And it's waitin' there for me and you

Cool clear water (water, water)



(Keep a-movin, Dan) (water)

(Don't you listen to him, Dan) (water, water)

(He's the devil not a man)

(And he spreads the burning sand with water) (water, water, water)

Cool clear water (water, water, water)


PET SHOP BOYS lyrics - In Denial



[Father:]

In denial, no

my life's a trial

I'm not denying

that every little bit hurts

It's a problem

that I'm not solving

Don't mind admitting

I feel like quitting this job

for a while, getting away

before it gets any worse today



[Daughter:]

You're in denial

and that is final

You're not admitting

you should be quitting all these

queens and fairies

and muscle Marys

the rough trade boyfriend

who in his pathetic own way

denies he's gay

Why can't you see?

This is a fantasy world



[Father:]

Think I'm going mad

How d'you know if you're going mad?



[Daughter:]

Look at me I'm lonely



[Father:]

Look at me I'm sad



I'm not denying

I could be trying

a little harder

to deal with some of this stuff



[Daughter:]

Know what I'm thinking?

Less drugs and drinking

No cigarettes and you'd feel

a little less rough



[Father:]

Is that enough?

My life is absurd, I'm living it upside down

like a vampire, working at night, sleeping all day

A dad with a girl who knows he's gay



[Daughter:]

Can you love me anyway?
