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

I just want to make love to you, baby

Well I can tell by the way that you twitch and walk
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
I don't want you wash my clothes
I don't want you leave the home
I don't want 'cause I'm sad and blue
I just want to make love to you, baby
Love to you, baby

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 my hands on you
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
TOO $HORT (TOO SHORT) lyrics - Talkin' Shit

Still representin the O, homey the Eastside, nigga 100th Ave.
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?
(?), take no marine time (?)
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

I talk big shit, big spit
I do it on the microphone and get rich
Bitch I'm so god damn motherfuckin cool
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
What's worse, if I put yo' name in a rap
Or get all in yo' face while I snap, bitch?
Oh you hoes better watch what you doin

[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

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.

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?
