MOODY BLUES lyrics - A Simple Game

As time goes by you will see

That we're going to be free

You and me, we'll touch the sky

Can you see in your mind's eye

That we are one

We're all the same

And life is just a simple game



There, by your side, I will be

When this crazy world is free

Free from doubt

When it finds out

Exactly what we're meant to be

That we are one

We're all the same

And life is just a simple game



Thoughts of another day

Flashing through my head

Thinking how life could be

All of the things that our great men have said

Be what we want to be

What we deserve to be

What we are meant to be



As time goes by, you will see

That we're going to be free

You and me, we'll touch the sky

Can you see in your mind's eye

That we are one

We're all the same

And life is just a simple game



We're gonna be free

Oohhh, gonna be free

Gonna be free

(Free, gonna be free, gonna be free, Oohhh)

SOCIAL DISTORTION lyrics - Crown Of Thorns

Pretty much been alone now

For almost five years

Well, I could always find a way

To hide these bitter tears

Still I am waiting

And wishing somehow

I wish I knew then

What I know now



[Chorus:]

It's no bed of roses

It ain't no crown of thorns

Better than lonely

I've been there before



Gotta bad reputation

For playing with love

Gonna play again now

And beat the odds above

And still I am waiting

And wishing somehow

I wish I knew then

What I know now



[Chorus]



Are you tired of being alone?

Or have you fallen out of love?

Do you care enough about yourself?

I have worn you're crown of thorns



[Chorus 2x]



I've been there before

DOLLY PARTON lyrics - If I Were A Carpenter

[Originally by Johnny Cash & June Carter]



If I were a carpenter

And you were a lady,

Would you marry me anyway?

Would you have my baby?



If a tinker were my trade

Would you still find me,

Carrin' the pots I made,

Followin' behind me.



Save my love through loneliness,

Save my love for sorrow,

I'm given you my onliness,

Come give your tomorrow.



If I worked my hands in wood,

Would you still love me?

Answer me babe, "Yes I would,

I'll put you above me."



If I were a miller

At a mill wheel grinding,

Would you miss your color box,

And your soft shoe shining?



If I were a carpenter

And you were a lady,

Would you marry me anyway?

Would you have my baby?

Would you marry anyway?

Would you have my baby?

SARAH VAUGHAN lyrics - Broken Hearted Melody

(Words by Hal David and Music by Sherman Edwards)



Br-oooo-ken hearted me-eee-lo-dy

Ooooonce you were our song of love

Nooooow you just keep taunting me

Wiiiiith the memory of (ba-da-da)

His tender love



Ooooh, broken hearted melody

Must you keep reminding me

Of the lips I long to kiss

And the love I miss

Since he went away

Night and day they play

That broken hearted melody

That he used to sing to me

When our love was young and bright

As he held me tight

Suddenly I found

I was heaven bound



Brooooken hearted melody

Ooooonce you were our song of love

Nooooow you just keep taunting me

Wiiiiiith the memory of (ba-da-da)

His tender love



Ooooh, broken hearted melody

Won't you bring him back to me

Sing to him until he yearns

For when he returns no more will he be

A broken hearted melody

Oooooooo, oo-oo

Oo-oo, oo-oo, ooooooooo

Oooooooo, oo-oo

Oo-oo, oo-oo, ooooooooo

BAD RELIGION lyrics - Murder

If you're discontent to know you world's a pile of shit,

Listen to a riddle that'll tickle every bit of it,



HA HA HA!



Ape shall not murder - Ape wasn't so sure

Bad ape you made a mistake,

Annihilation in a cannibal war!

Well cultivation might have served you

Might have raised you up unscathed

If you had called that fucker by its name!



Did you listen to the arbiter's beck and call?

Did you find what you were looking for or not at all?



NOT AL ALL!



Ape shall not murder - Ape take the cure

Bad ape you made a mistake,

Annihilation in a cannibal war!

Culture might have cured you

And raised you up unscathed

If you had called that fucker by its name!



Say the name!

Say the name!

Say the name!

BADFINGER lyrics - Keep Believing

[Intro:]

Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do



I couldn't wish you any bad I only miss the many highs we've had

our problems made it hard to smile

But I still loved you all the while

I can't deny that times have changed

I only wish we could have rearranged it

We were the pawns in someone else's game



Keep believing you can make it now

keep believing you can work it out

Keep believing you can make it now



I know the pace was rather slow

but I was not the one to run the show

Our problems made it hard to talk

slowing run down to a walk

I would have liked for things to last

but now I know that time has put it past

We were the pawns and we became the thing



[Chorus:]

If you wanna blame somebody you can blame it all on me

Just believe and you will see

just believe and you will see



I can't deny that times have changed

I only wish we could have rearranged it

We were the pawns in someone else's game



[Chorus]



Do do do do..........

SHANNON lyrics - Let The Music Play

We started dancing

And love put us into a groove

As soon as we started to move

The music played

While our bodies

Displayed through the dance



Then love picked us out for romance

I thought it was clear

The plan was we would share

This feeling just between ourselves

But when the music changed

The plan was re-arranged

He went to dance with someone else



We started dancing

And love put us into a groove

But now he's with somebody new

What does love want me to do



Love said

Let the music play

He won't get away

Just keep the groove

And then he'll come back to you again

(Let it play)

Let the music play

He won't get away

This groove he can't ignore

He won't leave you anymore

No, no, no



He tried pretending

A dance is just a dance

But I see

He's dancing his way back to me



Guess he's discovered

We are truly lovers

Magic from the very start

'Cause love just kept me groovin'

And he felt me movin'

Even though we danced apart



So we started dancing

And love put us into the groove

As soon as we started to move

As soon as we started to move



Love said

Let the music play

He won't get away

Just keep the groove

And then he'll come back to you again

(Let it play)

Let the music play

He won't get away

This groove he can't ignore

He won't leave you anymore

No, no, no



He tried pretending

A dance is just a dance

But I see

He's dancing his way back to me

He's dancing his way back to me



Love said

(Let the music play)

Let the music play

(He won't get away)

Just keep the groove

And then he'll come back to you again

(Let it play)

Let the music play

He won't get away...

THE RAMONES lyrics - Zero Zero UFO

It landed in a field in Idaho

Where it came from, I don't know

It did not look like it came from Japan

And out of the dark walked a strange man



If you think it's a pack of lies,

I saw it happen with my own eyes

A million miles from the milky way

A hundred years, a month, and a day



Zero Zero UFO



(When media writes) the neon lights

Spaceship travels at the speed of light

A million stars in the sky

(I here the Queen's on the alien's side)



If you think it's a pack of lies,

I saw it happen with my own eyes

A million miles from the milky way

A hundred years, a month, and a day

Hey!



Zero Zero UFO

Hey!

VANESSA PARADIS lyrics - Les Revenants

Le feu qui sort des naseaux

C'est le decor, c'est pour de faux

Les ailes noires dans le dos

Les redingotes, les grands chapeaux

Les squelettes en plein tango

Les trucs etranges qu'on voit pas trop

Les impossibles animaux

Du genre qu'on croise pas dans les zoos



Je vous regarde et je vois

Et je n'en reviens pas

Je vous regarde et je vois les revenants

Et je n'en reviens pas



Vous effrayez les minots

Ca fait recette

Je sais pas trop

Moi je vous trouve moins inquietants

Que la plupart des vivants



Je vous regarde et je vois

Et je n'en reviens pas

Je vous regarde et je vois les revenants

Je n'en reviens pas

SYD BARRETT lyrics - Milky Way

(Barrett)



What'd you ever say today when you're in the milky way



Oh tell me please

If I met you - I told you what to do

Seems a while

Since I could smile the way you do...



How many times, if I try, if I may,

When you're in the milky way



Half of your time - beside me only atmosphere

Since I could smile the way you do...



What can anyone mean to you

Standing in the milky way



Take life easy

Why so empty...?

I told you - I can tell you

What to do - when I hold you

And I tell you "I love you"

I feel that I'm way you do...



Give a grasp of life today

When you're in the milky way

Oh, try to please! Knock on wood of the trees

Glad you, mold you, mold you and hold you

Means five miles

And everyway for you...

JOHN AND MARY lyrics - Clare's Scarf

(John Lombardo/Mary Ramsey)



Now she is living in the garret

From fear she never leaves her home

The neighbors sunning on their porches

The world enchanting down below

She knows them like they were a family

But it is she they never see



Ooh Clare wraps the scarf around her head

The one she loves, rubious red

Peers through the looking glass

Her heart sinks slowly



Clare spends time with books

Of fancy riddled rhymes

And she tries hard at learning new words

She's making lists of every vow

She'll never keep



Clare wraps the scarf around her head

The one she loves, rubious red

Peers through the looking glass

Her heart sinks slowly



When sorting through her mind

She finds it hard to find

A memory that is all her own

Ooh you took all I ever wanted,

As through your own



Clare wakes up, morning starts with a parade

The flags were snapping in the sun

She saw old soldiers on display

Bowed and greyed but not afraid



Clare wraps the scarf around her head

The one she loves, rubious red

Peers through the looking glass

She walks on slowly

Ooh you took all I ever wanted

As through your own

CHRIS DE BURGH lyrics - Borderline

I'm standing in the station,

I am waiting for a train,

To take me to the border,

And my loved one far away,

I watched a bunch of soldiers heading for the war,

I could hardly even bear to see them go;



Rolling through the countryside,

Tears are in my eyes,

We're coming to the borderline,

I'm ready with my lies,

And in the early morning rain, I see her there,

And I know I'll have to say goodbye again; And it's breaking my heart, I know what I must do,

I hear my country call me, but I want to be with you,

I'm taking my side, one of us will lose,

Don't let go, I want to know,

That you will wait for me until the day,

There's no borderline, no borderline; Walking past the border guards,

Reaching for her hand,

Showing no emotion,

I want to break into a run,

But these are only boys, and I will never know,

How men can see the wisdom in a war... And it's breaking my heart, I know what I must do,

I hear my country call me, but I want to be with you,

I'm taking my side, one of us will lose,

Don't let go, I want to know,

That you will wait for me until the day,

There's no borderline, no borderline,

No borderline, no borderline...

B. B. KING lyrics - Ask Me No Questions

(B. B. King)



You go out when you get ready

And you come home when you please

You just love me when you want me baby

And you think it outta be alright with me



When I try to talk, talk to you baby

And let you know just how I feel

You tell me if I don't like it

You know someone else will



Oh, but I done got wise to you baby

You're not the only bird in the sky

Oh so don't ask me no questions now baby

And I, I won't tell you no lies



Because I like to feel arms around me

And lips close, close to mine

So I don't have to beg you to love me

I don't have to beg you all the time



Oh, but I done got wise to you baby

You're not the only bird in the sky

So now don't you ask me no questions

And you know I won't, I won't tell you no lies



Yes you can love me if you want me

Or you keep on playing the field

Because I know if you don't love me

I know there's somebody else that will

KISS lyrics - The Jungle

Here I go

Down below



The sun is goin' down

A jungle comes alive

The beast is waking up

To take another life



I can't sleep

In too deep



The man with nothing left

Without a place to hide

Will take a final breath

And tumble in the night



Yeah

Someone's safe at home

Someone dies alone

Someone's fallen prey

Yeah

Some will take their fill

Like lions to the kill

Livin' day to day

Whoooaaaaaoooohhhh, The Jungle



Mothers mourn

Fathers groan



The child takes a hit

And then he starts to cry

A mother never hears

Her baby's last goodbye



Yeah

Someone's safe at home

Someone dies alone

Someone's fallen prey

Yeah

Some will take their fill

Like lions to the kill

Livin' day to day

Whoooaaaaaoooohhhh, The Jungle



The sun is coming up

A city comes alive

The lamb will never see

A jungle in the sky



Yeah

Someone's safe at home

Someone dies alone

Someone's falling prey

Yeah

Some will take their fill

Like lions to the kill

Livin' day to day

Yeah

Someone dies alone

Someone's safe at home

All is flesh and bone

Whoooaaaaaoooohhhh, The Jungle

ABBA lyrics - I Saw It In The Mirror

I saw it in the mirror

I saw it in my face

that I'm no longer needed

anyone can take my place

I saw it in the mirror

when I look into my eyes

'cause something sure is wrong

when this boy cries



I saw it in the mirror

my head is hanging low

and I ain't too familiar

with the feelings that I show

I know you say you love me

but I'm looking through your lies

it doesn't really bother you

if this boy cries



I never thought I could cry for you

but honey I will miss you 'til the day I die



I saw it in the mirror

I saw it in my face

that I'm no longer needed

anyone can take my place

I saw it in the mirror

when I look into my eyes

'cause something sure is wrong

when this boy cries

CHER lyrics - She Loves To Hear The Music

She's just a secretary

At a small recording firm

When it comes to music

There ain't nothing she can't learn



And everything she lives and breathes

Is written on an album sleeve

She can tell you who's hot

Who will make it and who will not



[Chorus:]

She loves to hear the music

She's got every lyric down

She loves to hear them say

She's got the greatest ears in town



Hangs around a studio

Ain't a rock star she don't know

Sometimes they take her home

But she always wakes up alone



Men that want to marry her

Never satisfied

In rythms that she hears

All that keeps her high



So they turn around and go

And leave her by her radio

She didn't love 'em anyway

Not like she loves the men who play



[Chorus]



She's there at every studio

The first to come, the last to go

Sometimes they take her home

But she always wakes up alone



Years will not be kind to her

Her world is for the young

Bands that played so tightly and knit

Will soon become unstrung



She'll be just another face

Out of town and out of place

When the songs revive again

She'll come to life and tell them when



[Chorus]



She could of been somebody's wife

Music men destroyed her life

Each night she took one home

But she always woke up alone

PETER GABRIEL lyrics - Listening Wind

[Originally by Talking Heads]



Mojique sees his village from a nearby hill

Mojique thinks of days before Americans came

He sees the foreigners in growing numbers

He sees the foreigners in fancy houses

He thinks of days that he can still remember...now.



Mojique holds a package in his quivering hands

Mojique sends the package to the American man

Softly he glides along the streets and alleys

Up comes the wind that makes them run for cover

He feels the time is surely now or never...more.



The wind in my heart

The wind in my heart

The dust in my head

The dust in my head

The wind in my heart

The wind in my heart

(Come to) Drive them away

Drive them away. u

Mojique buys equipment in the market place

Mojique plants devices in the free trade zone

He feels the wind is lifting up his people

He calls the wind to guide him on his mission

He knows his friend the wind is always standing...by.



Mojique smells the wind that comes from far away

Mojique waits for news in a quiet place

He feels the presence of the wind around him

He feels the power of the past behind him

He has the knowledge of the wind to guide him...on.



The wind in my heart

The wind in my heart

The dust in my head

The dust in my head

The wind in my heart

The wind in my heart

(Come to) Drive them away

Drive them away

PETER GABRIEL lyrics - Love To Be Loved

(Aaaaahi, byeeee)



So, you know how people are

When it's all gone much too far

The way their minds are made

Still, there's something you should know

That I could not let show

That fear of letting go



And in this moment, I need to be needed

With this darkness all around me, I like to be liked

In this emptiness and fear, I want to be wanted

'Cause I love to be loved

I love to be loved [x2]

Yes, I love to be loved



I cry the way that babies cry

The way they can't deny

The way they feel

Words, they climb all over you

'Til they uncover you

From where you hide



And in this moment, I need to be needed

When my self-esteem is sinking, I like to be liked

In this emptiness and fear,

I want to be wanted

'Cause I love to be loved

I love to be loved [x2]

Oh I love to be loved



This old familiar craving

I've been here before, this way of behaving

Don't know who the hell I'm saving anymore

Let it pass let it go let it leave

From the deepest place I grieve

This time I believe



And I let go [x2]

I can let go of it

Though it takes all the strength in me

And all the world can see

I'm losing such a central part of me

I can let go of it

You know I mean it

You know that I mean it

I recognize how much I've lost

But I cannot face the cost

'Cause I love to be loved



Yes I love to be loved

I love to be loved

[x3]



I love to be loved

I love to be loved

Yes I love to be loved

BEE GEES lyrics - Method To My Madness

I've played the game, still it's not worth it

Like a woman in the rain

I close my eyes

I'm on the shelf

I know myself



I've seen the lights of ev'ry city

Tried to work out where I am

I close my mind for the day

I know the way



I've played the game, still it's not worth it

Like a woman in the rain

So I close my eyes

I'm on the shelf

I know my self



There's never ever anybody to rely on

There isn't time to count the shoulders I have cried on

That's just circumstances, I must take my chances

But, baby you don't know what I'm saying

But I guess that's not true

And you know that's true

But there's a method to my madness



I've played the game, still it's not worth it

Like a woman in the rain

So I close my eyes for the day

I know the way

LOU REED lyrics - Perfect Day

Just a perfect day

drink Sangria in the park

And then later

when it gets dark, we go home



Just a perfect day

feed animals in the zoo

Then later

a movie, too, and then home



Oh, it's such a perfect day

I'm glad I spend it with you

Oh, such a perfect day

You just keep me hanging on

You just keep me hanging on



Just a perfect day

problems all left alone

Weekenders on our own

it's such fun



Just a perfect day

you made me forget myself

I thought I was

someone else, someone good



Oh, it's such a perfect day

I'm glad I spent it with you

Oh, such a perfect day

You just keep me hanging on

You just keep me hanging on



You're going to reap just what you sow [x4]

FRANK SINATRA lyrics - Misty

(Errol Carner, Johny Burke)



[Recorded November 21, 1961, Los Angeles]



Look at me, I'm as helpless as a kitten up a tree

And I feel like I'm hanging from a cloud, I can't understand

I get misty, just holding your hand, walk my way

And a thousand violins begin to play

Or it might be the sound of your hello

This magic I hear, I get misty the moment you're near

You could say that you're leading me on, but it's just what I want you to do

Can't you see just how hopelessly I'm drawn, that's why I'm following you

On my own, would I wander through this wonderland alone

Never knowing my right foot from my left, my hat from my glove

I get misty, and too much in love on my own

Would I wander through this wonderland alone

Never knowing my right foot from my left

My hat and my glove, I get misty and too much in love

Look at me

WHITESNAKE lyrics - Your Precious Love

I'm far from home,

And tired of this place,

I miss your good, good love

And your sweet embrace

Can't sleep at night

With you on my mind,

I just wanna run to you, baby,

Leave it all behind



'Cause it seems so long

Since I heard your song,

I'm coming home to you, baby,

Back where I belong



Your precious love,

That's all I need,

Angel spread your wings

And bring it on home to me



Sometimes in my life

I don't know what to do,

Tho' I'm weak for myself

I try to be strong for you.

You're there when I need you,

After all these years,

So I send you this letter, baby,

Written in tears



'Cause it seems so long

Since I heard your song,

I'm coming home to you, baby, baby,

Back where I belong



Your precious love,

That's all I need,

Angel spread your wings

And bring it on home to me



'Cause it seems so long

Since I heard your song,

I'm coming home to you, baby,

Back where I belong



Your precious love,

That's all I need,

Angel spread your wings

And bring it, bring it, bring on home



Your precious love, your precious love,

That's all that I need.

Angel spread your wings and

Bring it, bring it, bring on home

Bring it baby, baby, that's all I want.



Your precious love

Your precious love, that's all I need

Your precious love, your precious love

Your precious love, that's all I need

C'mon bring on home, baby

Won't you bring on home

I need your love...

JOHN (COUGAR) MELLENCAMP lyrics - Hard Times For An Honest Man

One man

Does his work

He's not satisfied

Not at all

Feels like

That he is being used

His self respect starts to fall

His frustration

Runnin' very very high

He takes it out

On the one he loves

Because it's safe

And who they gonna tell

And he hates the cold-bloodedness

That runs inside



[Chorus:]

Oh yes

It's hard times

For an honest man

Very very very hard times

Hard times for an honest man

Very very very hard times



Sister

She's got a lot of pride

You can see it when she walks into the room

But she's young

And she's unaware

Of what a brutal world can do to you

So she loves a man

He lies like a dog

Tears her little world all apart

So the walls go up

For the rest of her days

And there ain't no man can touch this girl's heart



[Chorus]



So we walk

From the front porch to the back yard

Just to laugh and say hello and say good-bye

But some days are hard, like a soldier's steel-toed boots

And the rent we pay to stay here gets high



[Chorus]

GOO GOO DOLLS lyrics - Sweetest Lie

Well you play your part so easily

You fooled yourself again.

With your lipstick smeared across some face

You'll never see again.

And I sat there in the corner

Working back my memories

And I wondered if the time would come

You'd get around to me.



Living the sweetest lie.

Living the sweetest lie.



Well you made me feel electric

Every moment that we shared

But the lights went out when I realized

You never even cared.

So I picked myself back up

I didn't know where I had been.

And the thing that makes you seem so wrong

Is I want you back again.



Living the sweetest lie

Yeah c'mon baby give me love

Living the sweetest lie

Yeah c'mon baby give me love



You know you'll never be taken

Your love will never be taken, no

And are you tired of waking

Are you tired of waking alone?

MOODY BLUES lyrics - Slings And Arrows

Slings and arrows, slings and arrows

Slings and arrows, slings and arrows

No chance for a second chance

When the arrows start to fly

No way is an easy way

To say goodbye

No dream is ever lost

If you never cease to try

Never thought you would walk away

From my side

I just can't hide from

Slings and arrows, slings and arrows

Slings and arrows, slings and arrows



Life is ever changing

Nothing stays the same

Nothing in this whole wide world

Can turn us back again

Cos where we're standing now

Is the point of no return

Looking back on a world

that's got to learn

You just can't hide from

Slings and arrows, slings and arrows

Slings and arrows, slings and arrows



Love is the shield

When you're standing

With your back to the wall

And if you turn around

And walk away

You're never gonna lose

Cos love conquers all



No chance for a second chance

When the arrows start to fly

No way is an easy way

To say goodbye

No dream is ever lost

If you never cease to try

Never thought you would walk away

From my side

I just can't hide from

Slings and arrows, slings and arrows

Slings and arrows, slings and arrows

ROY ORBISON lyrics - I Care

I don't believe you when you say there's nothing wrong

And you can't hide the tears in your eyes from me

Don't you know we've been together much too long

Please don't hide it, oh baby can't you see



[Chorus:]

That i care, Yes i care, And i swear i do, Oh i do, oh i do

I really do love you, Oh i care, Yes i care, And i swear i do

Oh i do, Yes i do, I really do want you



Would it matter if i told you i was sorry

For all the little things i didn't do for you

And if you ever left me girl don't you know i'd worry

You know all i ever wanted was you



And i care, Yes i care, And i swear i do, And i do, oh i do

I really do love you, Oh i care, Yes i care, And i swear i do

Oh i do, Yes i do, I really do want you



Oh i want you to want me too

Just to love me just to love me



[Chorus]

CELINE DION lyrics - I Love You, Goodbye

Wish I could be the one

The one who could give you love

The kind of love you really need

Wish I could say to you

That I'll always stay with you

But baby that's not me

You need someone willing to give their heart and soul to you

Promise you forever, baby that's something I can't do

Oh I could say that I'll be all you need

But that would be a lie

I know I'd only hurt you

I know I'd only make you cry

I'm not the one you're needing

I love you, goodbye



I hope someday you can

Find some way to understand I'm only doing this for you

I don't really wanna go

But deep in my heart I know this is the kindest thing to do

You'll find someone who'll be the one that I could never be

Who'll give you something better

Than the love you'll find with me

Oh I could say that I'll be all you need

But that would be a crime

I know I'd only hurt you

I know I'd only make you cry

I'm not the one you're needing

I love you, goodbye



Leaving someone when you love someone

Is the hardest thing to do

When you love someone as much as I love you



Oh I don't wanna leave you

Baby it tears me up inside

But I'll never be the one you're needing

I love you, goodbye



Baby, its never ganna work out

I love you, goodbye

MOODY BLUES lyrics - No More Lies

I need you like you need me

Truly and completely

Never be apart

I think that you should tell me

Come right out and tell me

Just what's in your heart



And if you think that it's alright

Let's make a deal and work it out

We'll walk into the sunset you and I

With no more alibies

When we tell each other

No more lies



Well truth is my addiction

Stranger still than fiction

Wider than the sky

And songs that have such feeling

Words that have such meaning

Dreams that never die



And if you think that it's alright

Let's turn around and start again

We'll walk beside the ocean hand in hand

With no more alibies

When we tell each other

No more lies



I sometimes think that maybe

You're just a little girl

You know I love you baby

I've got to tell the world



So that's the final story

The truth in all it's glory

See how much I care

You know you drive me crazy

Thrill me and amaze me

Drive me to despair



And if you think that now feels right

Let's close the door and dim the light

We'll greet the dawn together side by side

Just look into my eyes

Cause you know I'll tell you

No more lies

DIRE STRAITS lyrics - Once Upon A Time In The West

Some people get a cheap laugh breaking up the speed limit

Scaring the pedestrians for a minute

Crossing up progress driving on the grass

Leaving just enough for room to pass

Sunday driver never took a test

Oh yeah, once upon a time in the west



Yes, it's no use saying that you don't know nothing

It's still gonna get you if don't do something

Sitting on a fence that's a dangerous course

Oh, you could even catch a bullet from the peace-keeping force

Even the hero gets a bullet in the chest

Oh yeah, once upon a time in the west



Mother Mary your children are slaughtered

Some of you mothers ought to lock up your daughters

Who's protecting the innocenti

Heap big trouble in the land of plenty

Tell me how we're gonna do what's best

You guess once upon a time in the west



Once upon a time in the west...

ALPHAVILLE lyrics - Sweet Needles Of Success

(Lyrics: Gold/music: Gold-Bloss)



The circus is full of smoke

After all this years

Some were good, some were bad

Didn't know what i was about to start

When i started

Though i wrote it all down

God, i was so naive!

When you're on the show,

You've got to shoot not to sing

Wasn't it worth anyway

12 years,

6 were good,

6 were bad

20.000 songs in my head

And a toast to all the pimps in the world

Here's to you

Hey, hey, here's to you,

Till the last bullet's fired

Welcome, sweet needles of success

Here's to you,

You got to shoot, not to sing

Welcome, customers,

Whores,

I still got my gun

I still got my gun

Look, i point at you

There's a shadow on the target,

I guess you call it future

And the fingertip-orchestras sounded

Like spirit rapping on the radio

The day i sold my music

For less than a soul

To a full-playback-pop-music-teenage-hero

Here's to you,

Sweet needles of success

Welcome, customers, whores,

I still got my gun

Here's to you,

You got to shoot not to sing

I still got some shots inside

Welcome, sweet needles of succes

Take me home,

Take me home

Oh, sweet needles of success

Here i go

Into the dry-ice fog

LYLE LOVETT lyrics - An Acceptable Level Of Ecstasy (The Wedding Song)

(Lyle Lovett)



The two-step it drug like a ball and chain

While the band was playing something like Moon River or Somewhere Over The Rainbow

And I was chasing the black man with the champagne

And I was chasing the black girl with the Oysters Rockefeller



And it was a highbrow occassion

For no special reason

And nobody knew

Nobody knew

That the flowers were furnished by the funeral parlor

And the whole thing was paid for by the funeral director

Who poisoned the saxophone section



And if you ain't the big daddy

You ain't nobody

If you ain't the big daddy

You ain't nobody

Red and yellow, black and tan

But white that's the color of the big boss man

It was a twenty-piece orchestra at the Warwick Hotel

With some fat man from the opera who tried to sing Misty

And it was black men and black boys in white ties and tails

And mascara and rouge and fake fingernails



If you ain't the big daddy

You ain't nobody

If you ain't the big daddy

You ain't nobody

Red and yellow, black and tan

But white that's the color of the big boss man



They had them everywhere man

They had one on every foot and every hand

And they was all saying yes sir

And right away ma'am

And they was picking up plates

And they was pouring wine

And they was checking umbrellas

And making shoes shine

And they was handing out towels in the washroom

For a quarter



And it was an acceptable level of ecstasy

As far as everyone could see

But nobody knew

That the flowers were furnished by the funeral parlor

And the whole thing was paid for by the funeral director

Who poisoned the saxophone section



And if you ain't the big daddy

You ain't nobody

If you ain't the big daddy

You ain't nobody

Red and yellow, black and tan

But white that's the color of the big boss man

CARLY SIMON lyrics - Memorial Day

(Carly Simon)



It should have been so soft, this morning as we left

But the valley was infected, by a different kind of beauty

And the Indians they knew, it was a devil's sanctuary.



Out of this unholy dawn, a car came stirring up the sand

And a woman from a passion play

Held up the limousine that brought me

All this way today. And I didn't need to turn around

So strong was the message, and the man who planned her life

Commanded all that followed: Well they bellowed, and they hollered

And they threw each other down, down in this valley

This cruel and lovely valley, Oh it should have been an alley

In some low down part of town



As the lights came up, there was no sun

And brandy splattered all over the ground

As this woman with her head held high

Yelled love and why oh why, you're killing me oh follow me-

As I watched safe and clean, from the frosted windows of that limousine



Well they bellowed and they hollered, and they threw each other down

Down in this valley, this cruel and lovely valley

Oh it sould have been an alley, in some low down part of town



Before he'd been so funny, imagining the best:

That he'd escaper recrimination, for abandoning the nest

He'd been joking and stoned, while he was entertaining me

But then turned and was stunned, by her panic and her misery



And I was in the get-away car

Giving him a chance, to get away

Get away, get away



And how the valley smoked, as he crossed Route 25

With his cymbals and his shattered crown, leaving all alone

His eyes fixed on the ground. And he didn't even turn around

So strong was the message, and he fell into the shallow sky

And was swallowed.

Well they bellowed and they hollered, and they threw each other down

Down in this valley, this cruel and lovely valley

Well it should have been an alley, In some low down part of town

VAN MORRISON lyrics - Just Like Greta

(Van Morrison)



Some days it gets completely crazy

And I feel like howling at the moon

Then sometimes it feels so easy

Like I was born with a silver spoon



Other times you just can't reach me

Seems like I've got a heart of stone

Guess I need my solitude

And I have to make it on my own



Well I guess I'm going A. W.O. L.

Disconnect my telephone

Just like Greta Garbo

I want to be alone



Need to make some real connection

Baby something's just got to give

'Cos I've been too long in exile

I've been grinding at the mill



Too long to decode all the secrets

Have to get some elbow room

Most people think that everything

Is just what they assume



Well I know I'm going A. W.O. L.

Tell everyone I'm not at home

Just like Greta Garbo

I just want to be alone



Well I'm going out to L. A.

I wanna get my business done

Then I'm going on to Vegas

Then I'm going on the run



If anybody asks you have you seen me

Please just tell them no

'Cos I'm living on the outside

And I have nowhere to go



Well I guess I'm going A. W.O. L.

Disconnect my telephone

Just like Greta Garbo

I just want to be alone



I just want to be alone

Disconnect my telephone

Just like Greta Garbo

I just want to be alone

DOLLY PARTON lyrics - Here You Come Again

Here you come again

Just when I've begun to get myself together

You waltz right in the door

Just like you've done before

And wrap my heart 'round your little finger



Here you come again

Just when I'm about to make it work without you

You look into my eyes

And lie those pretty lies

And pretty soon I'm wonderin' how I came to doubt you



All you got to do is smile that smile

And there go all my defenses

Just leave it up to you and in a little while

You're messin' up my mind and fillin' up my senses



Here you come again

Lookin' better than a body has a right to

And shakin' me up so that all I really know

Is here you come again

And here I go



[Instrumental Interlude]



All you have to do is smile that smile

And there go all my defenses

Just leave it up to you and in a little while

You're messin' up my mind and fillin' up my senses



Here you come again

Lookin' better than a body has a right to

And shakin' me up so

That all I really know

Is here you come again

And here I go

Here I go

And here I go

And here I go

Here you come again

Here I go

Here I go

And here I go

Here I go

IGGY POP lyrics - Football

I'm a football baby,

Rollin' round the field.

I've been passed and fumbled,

Till I don't know what I feel.

Everybody's the same,

They're all footballs too.

Setting up the big play

And trying to score.



I'm a football baby

In a football game

I'm a football baby

Run-kick



Life's a football game,

As every chump and champ knows.

We don't touch, we collide,

Till we're worn out inside.

We're kicking each other,

Right where it hurts,

Setting up the big play,

And trying to score.



I'm a football baby,

In a football game

I'm a football baby,

I'm a football baby,

In a football game

I'm a football baby,

Block-pass

I'm a football baby,

In a football game

I'm a football baby,

Run-kick-hit-goal.

THE ASSOCIATION lyrics - Cherish

(Terry Kirkma)



Cherish is the word I use to describe

All the feeling that I have hiding here for you inside

You don't know how many times I've wished that I had told you

You don't know how many times I've wished that I could hold you

You don't know how many times I've wished that I could

Mold you into someone who could

Cherish me as much as I cherish you



Perish is the word that more than applies

To the hope in my heart each time I realize

That I am not gonna be the one to share your dreams

That I am not gonna be the one to share your schemes

That I am not gonna be the one to share what

Seems to be the life that you could

Cherish as much as I do yours



Oh I'm beginning to think that man has never found

The words that could make you want me

That have the right amount of letters, just the right sound

That could make you hear, make you see

That you are drivin' me out of my mind



Oh I could say I need you but then you'd realize

That I want you just like a thousand other guys

Who'd say they loved you With all the rest of their lies

When all they wanted was to touch your face, your hands

And gaze into your eyes



Cherish is the word I use to describe

All the feeling that I have hiding here for you inside

You don't know how many times I've wished that I had told you

You don't know how many times I've wished that I could hold you

You don't know how many times I've wished that I could

Mold you into someone who could

Cherish me as much as I cherish you



And I do... cherish you

And I do... cherish you



Cherish is the word

BLUE OYSTER CULT lyrics - Feel The Thunder

(E. Bloom)



Slicing through the night Three riders

Perched on American steel Riders with no name

Time cannot reveal riders with no names



On October 31'st many years ago

Three friends went out for a ride

For it was a famous party night

And to party was to get high

They loaded up on beer and cocaine

And they started their bikes with a roar

They couldn't have known that on this night

They were beginning their longest tour



Chorus:Feel the thunder of the midnight ride

They're torn asunder by those who died

Feel the thunder of the midnight ride

They're torn asunder by those who died



On to their favorite road they rode

Leather horsemen ridin' three wide

Their metal beasts howled in the night

And dark spectre was their guide

They came around the curve too fast

Only time for a scream

A fiery crash of chrome and steel

Was the beginning of the longest dream



Chorus:



As their fates decreed that night

Their souls must be tried

Now you can hear them every Hallows Eve

Forever doomed to ride



Slicing through the night Three riders

Perched on American steel Riders with no name

Time cannot reveal riders with no names



CHORUS:

MARIAH CAREY lyrics - Vanishing

If I could recapture

All of the memories

And bring them to life

Surely I would

Hear the distant laughter

Wasn't it you and me

Surviving the night

You're fading out

Of my sight

Swiftly



[Chorus:]

You're vanishing

Drifting away

You're vanishing

I was so enraptured

No sensibility

To open my eyes

I misunderstood



Now you're fading faster

It's suddenly hard to see

You're taking the light

Letting the shadows inside

Swiftly



[Chorus]



Reaching out into the distance

Searching for spirits of the past

Just a trace of your existence to grasp

And if somehow I could recapture

All of the memories

And bring them to life

Lord knows I would

But now you're fading faster

Getting so hard to see

Taking the light

Letting the darkness inside

Swiftly

JOHNNY CASH lyrics - Ragged Old Flag

I walked through a county courthouse square

On a park bench, an old man was sittin' there.

I said, "Your old court house is kinda run down,

He said, "Naw, it'll do for our little town".

I said, "Your old flag pole is leaned a little bit,

And that's a ragged old flag you got hangin' on it".

He said, "Have a seat", and I sat down,

"Is this the first time you've been to our little town"

I said, "I think it is"

He said "I don't like to brag, but we're kinda proud of

That Ragged Old Flag



"You see, we got a little hole in that flag there,

When Washington took it across the Delaware.

and It got powder burned the night Francis Scott Key sat watching it,

writing "Say Can You See"

It got a rip in New Orleans, with Packingham & Jackson

tugging at its seams.

and It almost fell at the Alamo

beside the Texas flag,

But she waved on though.

She got cut with a sword at Chancellorsville,

And she got cut again at Shiloh Hill.

There was Robert E. Lee and Beauregard and Bragg,

And the south wind blew hard on

That Ragged Old Flag



"On Flanders Field in World War I,

She got a big hole from a Bertha Gun,

She turned blood red in World War II

She hung limp, and low, a time or two,

She was in Korea, Vietnam, She went where she was sent

by her Uncle Sam.

She waved from our ships upon the briny foam

and now they've about quit wavin' back here at home

in her own good land here She's been abused,

She's been burned, dishonored, denied an' refused,

And the government for which she stands

Has been scandalized throughout out the land.

And she's getting thread bare, and she's wearin' thin,

But she's in good shape, for the shape she's in.

Cause she's been through the fire before

and i believe she can take a whole lot more.



"So we raise her up every morning

And we bring her down slow every night,

We don't let her touch the ground,

And we fold her up right.

On second thought

I *do* like to brag

Cause I'm mighty proud of

That Ragged Old Flag"

THE PRETENDERS lyrics - Up The Neck

Anger and lust my senses running amok

Bewildered and deluded, have I been hit by a truck?

When my tongue lay inside his lip

Felt like the time in the womb

But I woke up with a headache that split my skull

Alone in the room



I got down on the floor with my head pressed between my knees

Under the bed with my teeth sunk into my own flesh

I said baby, oh sweetheart



Lust turns to anger, a kiss to a slug

Something was sticky on your shag rug, look at the tile

I remember the way he groaned and moved with an animal skill

I rubbed my face in the sweat that ran down his chest

It was all very run of the mill

But I noticed his scent started to change somehow

His face went berserk and the veins bulged on his brow

I said baby, oh sweetheart



Bondage to lust, abuse of facility

Blackmailed emotions confuse the demon and devotee

I was sure his intentions were sweet

And that mine was as well

But a wish is a shot in the dark

When your coin's down the well



I got out in the hall with my teeth in my head

Up to my neck and I said, said, said dead

I said baby, oh sweetheart

ROGER TAYLOR lyrics - Good Times Are Now

(Roger Taylor)



Across the street your smile broke

Like a wave upon my face

You didn't notice me at all

Across the street I saw you

With some other pretty face

I loved you then I love you now

I loved you then I love you now

I had to take a chance cos special moments

Only tend to happen now and then

I had to take my chance and grab the moment by it's ears

Not be just some fly on your wall

Had to take my chance there

So I asked you out to dance there

I loved you then I love you now

I loved you then I love you now

I had to take a chance cos special moments

Only tend to happen now and then



Live for the present it's the only one we have

Nobody get's out of here...alive

Life in the future might never come to pass

You know - good times are now



I loved you then I love you now

I loved you then I love you now

I had to take a chance cos special moments

Only tend to happen now and then



Live for the present it's the only one we have

Nobody get's out of here...alive

Life in the future might never come to pass

You know - good times are now



Across the street your smile broke

Like a wave upon my face

You didn't notice me around

Across the street I saw you

With some other pretty face

I loved you then I love you now

I loved you then I love you now

I had to take a chance cos special moments

Only tend to happen now and then



You know - good times are now

JIMI HENDRIX lyrics - I Was Made To Love Her

I was born in Lil' Rock,

Had a childhood sweetheart,

We were always hand in hand.



I was hightop shoes and shirt tails,

Suzy was in pig tails,

I know I loved her even then.



You know my papa disapproved it,

My mama boohooed it,

But I told them time and time again,

"Don't you know I was made to love her,

Built a world all around her"

Yah! Hey, hey, hey.



She's been my inspiration,

Showed appreciation

For the love I gave her through the years.



Like a sweet magnolia tree

My love blossmed tenderly,

My life grew sweeter through the years.



I know that my baby loves me,

My baby needs me,

That's why we made it through the years.



I was made to love her,

Worship and adore her,

Hey, hey, hey.



All through thick and thin

Our love just won't end,

'Cause I love my baby, love my baby. Ah!



My baby loves me,

My baby needs me,

And I know I ain't going nowhere.



I was knee high to a chicken

When that love bug bit me,

I had the fever with each passing year.



Oh, even if the mountain tumbles,

If this whole world crumbles,

By her side I'll still be standing there.



'Cause I was made to love her,

I was made to live for her, yeah!



Ah, I was made to love her,

Built my world all around her,

Hey, hey, hey.



Oo baby, I was made to please her,

You know Stevie ain't gonna leave her, no,

Hey, hey, hey.



Oo wee baby, my baby loves me,

My baby needs me,

Hey, hey, hey.



OO my baby loves me...

PRINCE lyrics - Love Sign (Shock G's Silky Remix)

(We don't stop) [repeat sample in song]



Love sign [x2]

Love, love



[Chorus:]

If U're sick of evil knocking on your door

Throw up the love sign once and 4 ever more

If U'd rather make love and have a little fun

Throw up the love sign everybody and not the gun



In a chariot of red and gold

The cool, fuzzy voice said, "Come save your soul"

Before the fear of rejection reared its head

He stood before the masses and calmly said



[Chorus]



In the day of where and why we all belong

Don't nobody wanna hear a silly love song

And if they did then we would sing it on the news

While U're aiming your gun at me and I'm aiming back at U



[Chorus]



Now

Song now

Everybody sing the song now



If U only had one year left 2 live

What good is the time U spend if U got no love 2 give?

Let's all get up off the front and find a cause 2 back

Then we can teach the babies replications of the act, of the act



[Chorus 2x]



(Sick of evil knockin', yeah)

(Then ev..everybody, oh)

(We can have a little fun)

(Everybody, oh yeah)

(Oh yeah)

(4 ever more)

(Make a little love now)

(We can make love instead of guns, oh)



Now

THE MARVELETTES lyrics - My Baby Must Be A Magician

You are under my power

It is the power of love



Eyes that hypnotize

And all it takes is just once glance

Just one look at him

Puts me in a lover's trance



Now listen

No rabbits in his hand

No pigeons up his sleeve

But you better believe

When I prove he can do so much

My baby must be a magician cause he's sure got the magic touch



Oh my morale was low

Then he appeared just like a genie

His love has the power

He's my private great Houdini



No reading decks of cards

No cords that disappear

No special gear

Like Alladin's lamp and such

But my baby must be a magician cause he's sure got the magic touch



Whenever I'm feeling bad

My baby simply kisses me

And then Presto, Chango, Alakazam

I'm alright again oh yes I am

Yes I am alright



No mystic crystal ball

No long black flowing cape

But I can't escape

>From his tender loving touch

Oh my baby must be a magician cause he's sure got the magic touch

Say my baby must be a magician cause he's sure got the magic touch

R. E.M. lyrics - What If We Give It Away?

On the outside underneath the wall

All the money couldn't buy

You're mistaken no one's standing there

For the record no one tried



Oh I try to

What if we give it away?



Overlooking with a hollow eye

What's pretending is it right

Eye for order a hand for what's in line

Couldn't follow couldn't write



And our life is fine here

Stitch it on your tie here



Here's the trailer Tom

A year has come and gone

We're not moving was it right

Take the order sew it on your tie

We couldn't follow couldn't try

WOODY GUTHRIE lyrics - From Here On In

I'll take one road

From here on in.

From here on in

I'll take one street,

From here on in

I'll take one trail,

One walk, one lane

From here on in



I'll climb one hill,

Up a mountain side,

Through a pasture green

Through a vineyard wide.

I'll swim the sea,

Tread the sandy shore.

I'll take one gate,

One arch, one door.



I'll wade one river,

One little creek, one stream.

I'll cross one valley,

And all between.



From here on in

I'll take one road,

One walk, one lane

From here on in.

MEMPHIS MINNIE lyrics - You Can't Give It Away

(Memphis Minnie)



What is that you're going around here trying so sell?

It'ain't good to eat, you know, it ain't good to smell

Don't nobody want it

Don't nobody want it

Don't nobody want it

You can't even give it away



First time I met you had that meat in your hand

Going to give it to some woman's man

Ah, don't nobody want it

Don't nobody want it

Don't nobody want it

You can't even give it away



(spoken: Play it, Dennis, tell all about it)



You got something you can't sell and you can't give away

You just as well to take it on back where you stay

Ah, don't nobody want it

Don't nobody want it

Don't nobody want it

You can't even give it away



And don't let me catch you trying to give it to my man

If you do, I'm gonna raise a pain, I doggone can

Don't nobody want it

Don't nobody want it

Don't nobody want it

You can't even give it away



(spoken: Play it Dennis, tell all about it, boy)



Look-a here, black gal, why don't you get off the line?

What you trying to sell, it ain't nobody buying

Don't nobody want it

Don't nobody want it

Don't nobody want it

You can't even give it away

Leavin' bodies hangin' like the tongue of my chucks

Chalk another one, homicidal in the G ride

I swear I'm killing every nigga standing outside

Letting 'em have it

With my double barrel sawed off

I'm smoking everybody nigga bitches and all

Stretch 'em out in broad daylight muthafuck the witnesses

Eyes big as golf balls from the funny cigarette[haha]

As the sun frowns on my forehead

I sweat murder which makes me a walking dead man

Man bringing more bad news than shlepp rock

When I bust shots

W. C. keep the hammer cocked



The gangsta, the killa, and the dope deala [4x]



[Mack 10:]

What's crackin

Well, it's the nigga that's housin' the scene

I got pounds of green and birds sittin' on the triple beams

I put it down on and off the record my flats a

Double decker, marble floors all checkered

Now what can I say every bitch I lay be pure and

Bombay like Peruvian yae

So I brag and I boast man I got the most, man

I make more deliveries than the postman

My homie Carlito plug me with the amigos an

Now it's kilos five and six double zeros

Now what's next I'm stuck like a Kotex

Blindin' niggas with the buggas in my Rolex

With my aces o-t on a regular basis

We got pauveted faces fightin' federal cases

Cause ain't nothin' reala' than niggas gettin' they scrilla

Like a gangsta, a killa

But Mack I'll be the dope deala



Killa county is a state, murda [4x]

The gangsta the killa and the dope deala[murda] [8x]



Damn it's a trip, all these cameras goin up

I cant go here, I can't go there

I feel institutionalized

And i'm on the street

MADONNA lyrics - I'm So Stupid

'Cause I used to live

In a fuzzy dream

And I wanted to be

Like all the pretty people



I'm so stupid

'Cause I used to live

In a fuzzy dream

And I used to believe

In a pretty pictures

That were all around me

But now I know for sure

That I was stupid



[Chorus:]



Please don't try to tempt me

It was just greed

And it won't protect me

Don't want my dreams

Adding up to nothing

I was just looking for

Everybody's looking for something



I'm so stupid

'Cause I used to live

In a tiny bubble

And I wanted to be

Like all the pretty people

That were all around me

But now I know for sure

That I was stupid

Stupider than stupid



Stupider than stupid

Stupider than stupid



[chorus]



Everybody's looking for something

Everybody's stupid stupid

Everybody's looking for something

Everybody's stupid stupid

Everybody's looking for something

Everybody's stupid stupid

Everybody's looking for something

Everybody, everybody



[chorus]

BEACH BOYS lyrics - Everyone's In Love With You

(Mike Love)



Oooooo-ooooo-ooooo

Ooo-ooo-ooo



Everyone's in love with you

But you can't fall in love with anyone

Still everyone's in love with you

Though you can't fall in love with only one



So many people have had a love affair

Have had a love to share like mine

But I tell you people

I found something new

A love of a different kind



Everyone's in love with you

Though most just barely glimpse a part of you

They all can see your love shine through

It come s from deep within the heart of you



So many people have had their love affairs

Had their loves to share like mine

Now I tell you people

I witnessed something new

A love that could only be divine



Everyone's in love with you

And though you can't belong to only one

Still everyone's in love with you

Because (beacause) you gave your love

(Beacause) Because you gave your love (you gave your love)

Because you gave your love to everyone

RORY GALLAGHER lyrics - Seven Days

(Rory Gallagher)



Seven days of thunder eight days of rain

The feeling that I'm under

Is like a ball'n chain, like a ball'n chain



Just round the corner I know a store

Gonna trade in my razor and bay a 44

And I'll come knocking knocking door to door

The feeling in my head is like all out war

All out war third world war



And if they catch me and put me in the chair

You can sit beside me there's plenty room to spare

You are the reason I am in tis fix will you cry for me

When they throw that switch throw that switch



This time they'll lock me up for sure

Throw away the key when they slam the door



City to city town to town

Seven days running

Will they track me down

Will they track me down

THE SUPREMES lyrics - I Guess I'll Miss The Man

(Stephen Schwartz)



I guess I'll miss the man

Explain it, if you can

His face was far from fine

But still I'll miss his face

And wonder if he's missing mine



He never smiled enough

But though his words were gruff

I liked his shy, sad glance

I never told him so

But then, I never got the chance



Some men are heroes

Some men outshine the sun

Some men are simple, good men

This man wasn't one



Ooh



This man

Wasn't one



And I won't miss his moods

His gloomy solitudes

His blunt and thoughtless style (thoughtless style)

But please don't get me wrong

He was the best to come along

In a long, long while

GREEN DAY lyrics - Hold On

My mental stability reaches its bitter end

As I step to the edge

Of a shadow of a doubt

With my conscience beating

Like the pulse of a drum

that hammers on and on

As I reach the break of day

As the sun beats down

On the halfway house

Has my conscience beating

The sound in my ear

The will to persevere

As I reach the break of day



When you've lost all hope

And excuses

And the cheapskates and the losers

Nothing's left to cling on to

You gotta hold on...

Hold on to yourself



A cry of hope, a plea for peace

And my conscience beating

It's not what I want

For it's all that I need

To reach the break of day

So I run to the edge

Beyond the shadow of a doubt

With my conscience bleeding

Here lies the truth

The lost treasures of my youth

As i hold to the break of day

IRVING BERLIN lyrics - When I'm Out With You

[1st verse:]

Let's take a stroll up the avenue

Dearie, I love to be seen with you

Showing off is one of my joys

Let me show you off to the boys

You'll never guess what they say and do

When I am out with you



[Refrain:]

I've seen them stare as we're passing by

I've seen them glare with a jealous eye



Let me tell you that I'm all in clover

When I notice how they look you over



I've heard them cry, "It's the very best!"

Now you know why I throw out my chest



You beautiful thing, I'm as proud as a king

When I'm out with you



[2nd verse:]

I like your clothes 'cause I think they're great

You're the original fashion plate

Always something diff'rent to show

All dressed and someplace to go

If I'm conceited, don't think it queer

There is a reason, dear

KATE BUSH lyrics - Them Heavy People

Rolling the ball, rolling the ball, rolling the ball to me.

Rolling the ball, rolling the ball, rolling the ball to me.



They arrived at an inconvenient time.

I was hiding in a room in my mind.

They made me look at myself. I saw it well.

I'd shut the people out of my life.



So now I take the opportunities:

Wonderful teachers ready to teach me.

I must work on my mind. For now I realise:

Everyone of us has a heaven inside.



Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot.

Them heavy people help me.

Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot.

Rolling the ball, rolling the ball, rolling the ball to me.



They open doorways that I thought were shut for good.

They read me Gurdjieff and Jesu.

They build up my body, break me emotionally.

It's nearly killing me, but what a lovely feeling!



I love the whirling of the dervishes.

I love the beauty of rare innocence.

You don't need no crystal ball,

Don't fall for a magic wand.

We humans got it all, we perform the miracles.



Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot.

Them heavy people help me.

Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot.

Rolling the ball, rolling the ball, rolling the ball to me.

Rolling the ball, rolling the ball, rolling the ball to me.

Rolling the ball, rolling the ball...

A-HA lyrics - Cannot Hide

Can you see me baby

Standing in the light

I feel your cat's eyes on me

Faster in the night

I move inside

Got those eyes

Something's burning baby

That's alright

You and I

Here tonight



Meet me on the other side

'Cause you can do me right

Take me where I cannot hide

'Cause you can do me right

Meet me on the other side

You don't know me girl

I'm faceless in the crowd

The things I could show you baby

Come on, come onto my cloud

I'm alive tonight

Something's falling baby

You and I

Out of the sky I can see it in your eyes



Meet me on the other side

'Cause you can do me right

Take me where I cannot hide

'Cause you can do me right

You need, baby, you're alive

'Cause you can do me right

Take me to the other side

'Cause you can do me right

Meet me on the other side



I speak French today baby.

TINA TURNER lyrics - Whatever You Need

(Harriet Roberts & Russell Countenay)



In what other lives have I known your kiss

And what forgotten moments have I felt like this

The way you touch me I come undone

You know me more than anyone

Whatever you want



In what other lives have I touched your face

And what words did we whisper in a strange forbidden place

To be with you baby is to find myself

We're two of a kind, you and I

I couldn't love anyone else

You are my beginning, my end

You are my lover, my friend

In this life, in this time



Whatever you want, whatever you need

I will be right here waiting, baby baby baby

Whatever you want, whatever you need

I will be right here waiting, yeah yeah yeah



Yeah

In what other lives did I feel your skin

And when exactly did I breathe you in

Feel like I've known you for a thousand years

You're so familiar to me and there is no fear

You are my beginning, my end

You are my lover, my friend

In this life, in this time



Whatever you want, whatever you need

I will be right here waiting, baby baby baby

Whatever you want, whatever you need

I will be right here waiting, yeah yeah yeah yeah



Watch the sun go down, yeah yeah

My past and future in you are bound, oh yeah

I watch as time moves on, I'm alive and strong

And when I'm with you there's no right, no wrong



Whatever you want, whatever you need

I will be right here waiting, baby baby baby

Whatever you want, whatever you need

I'm gonna be right here waiting, baby baby

Whatever you want (Whatever you want)

Whatever you need (Whatever you need)

I will be right here waiting, baby baby baby

Whatever you want, whatever you need

Whatever you want

Right here, right here waiting

Right here, right here waiting

THE RAMONES lyrics - The Shape Of Things To Come

There's a new sun Risin' up angry in the sky

And there's a new voice Sayin' "we're not afraid to die"

Let the old world make believe It's blind and deaf and dumb

But nothing can change the shape of things to come



There are changes Lyin' ahead in every road

And there are new thoughts Ready and waiting to explode

When tomorrow is today The bells may toll for some

But nothing can change the shape of things to come



The future's comin' in, now Sweet and strong

Ain't no-one gonna hold it back for long



There are new dreams Crowdin' out old realities

There's revolution Sweepin' in like a fresh new breeze

Let the old world make believe It's blind and deaf and dumb

(But) nothing can change the shape of things



To come

BEACH BOYS lyrics - I Do Love You

When you say you do

Makes me want to spend life with you

I never knew life could be so good

When you say you care

Want to be right there beside you

And show the world

You've been good to me

And you know I do



All my love

You are my love

Without your love I go nowhere

All my love

You are my life

You are the girl I'm dreaming of

You're the one I really love

I do love you

I do love you

I do love you

I do love you



When you say it's true

Lets me know we'll be forever

Insightful joy

Of a love so good

Want to be right there beside you

And tell the world

You've been good to me

And you know I do



All my love

You are my love

Without your love I go nowhere

All my love

You are my live

You are the girl I'm dreaming of

You're the one I really love

I do love you

I do love you

I do love you

I do love you

JOHN PRINE lyrics - Everybody

While out sailing on the ocean

While out sailing on the sea

I bumped into the Savior

And He said pardon me

I said "Jesus you look tired"

He said "Jesus so do you,

Sit down son

'Cause I got some fat to chew"



[Chorus:]

Everybody needs somebody that they can talk to

Someone to open up their ears

And let that trouble through

Now you don't have to sympathize

Or care what they may do

But everybody needs somebody that they can talk to



Well he spoke to me of morality

Starvation, pain and sin

Matter of fact the whole dang time

I only got a few words in

But I won't squawk

Let 'em talk

Hell it's been a long long time

And any friend that's been turned down

Is bound to be a friend of mine



[Chorus]



Now we sat there for an hour or two

Just eatin' that Gospel pie

When around the bend come a terrible wind

And lightning lit the sky

He said so long son I gotta run

Appreciate you listening to me

And I believe I heard him sing these words

As he skipped out across the sea



[Chorus]

BUDDY & JULIE MILLER lyrics - The Devil Is An Angel

(Julie Miller)



Well, you look just like an angel, you sound so bright and true,

You seem so sweet coming down my street, but the devil is an angel too,

The devil is an angel too.



Somehow you seem familiar - haven't I seen you before?

Got a different name, but is it the same old heartache coming 'round my door, my door?



Got one hand on my shoulder; you keep one behind your back,

I'm going to need some identification, baby, before I let you unpack,

You look at me so tender, but I wonder if there lies something dark and sinister behind those innocent eyes.



Well, you coo just like a baby, make me want to let you in,

You seem sincere - but if I trust you, dear, will I ever see my soul again?

You sound just like a preacher, stand upright and tall,

But I want to know - honey, after the show, do you have any love at all?



And I don't mean to doubt your sincere intent, but underneath there's the look about something mean and malevolent,

You look just like an angel, you sound so bright and true,

You seem so sweet coming down my street, but the devil is an angel too,

I said, the devil is an angel too,

That's right, the devil is an angel too.

ERASURE lyrics - All This Time Still Falling Out Of Love

(Clarke / Bell)



As a means of release

Pick up my little pieces of heaven

'Tis a social disease when I cry

As you head for the door

I want it all, you can take it all leave it



With the light coming in

My desire to give in runs away with me

If I'm not good enough and my love is too much

Then forget it

Now I am strong carry me home

You can take it or leave it



God help me but forgive my true intention

It hurts me but I've nowhere left to run

All this time still falling out of love



As we cut to the thrust

This could well be the year of decision

Do you know what I mean

Like a song spinning round in my head?

Now I am strong carry me home

You can take it or leave it



God help me but forgive my true intention

It hurts me but I've nowhere left to run

All this time still falling out of love



I want it all, give me it all

I want it all, give me it all



God help me but forgive my true intention

It hurts me but I've nowhere left to run

God help me but forgive my true intention

It hurts me but I've nowhere left to run

All this time still falling out of love

All this time still falling out of love

STEVEN CURTIS CHAPMAN lyrics - In This Little Room

(Steven Curtis Chapman and Geoff Moore)



[Hebrews 10:24]



In this little room I put my pen to the paper,

To write what's in my heart down on a page;

With every line, a silent prayer is being lifted

That the song will somehow find its way

From this little room to your heart.



In this little room with just a microphone to hear me,

I sing what's in my heart while the music plays;

And with every line, a silent prayer is being lifted

That the song will somehow find its way

From this little room to your heart.



I close my eyes imagining your faces;

I see the smiles, the tears, the joys, the pain.

We may be strangers but I can give this song to you,

Because the One who gave me this song knows your name,

He knows your name, He knows your name.



In this little room tonight I'll be praying,

As Jesus comes to meet you where you are,

We'll hear His voice together if we listen,

And we'll find it's really not that far

From this little room, from this little room,

From this little room to your heart.

JACKSON 5 / THE JACKSONS lyrics - Skywriter

(Jerry Marcellino / Mel Larson)



[Chorus:]

Skywriter

Sweep your silver pen,

Across the sky so high



Skywriter

Won't you write the biggest

I love you

Cross the sky



She don't read the letters

I write anymore

Sorry I upset her

But I wasn't sure

Now I know I love her

I hope that she will see

A message high above her

That you write for me, yeah.



[Chorus]



Hey hey

Send a box of cande

And flowers every day

Still she wouldn't listen

Her pride got in the way



Now it's up to you

It won't fade away

Write it on the heavens

Love will make it stay, yeah



[Chorus]

CARLY SIMON lyrics - A Mother's Intuition

(Carly Simon)



It's a mother's intuition

To make a little space

It's her quiet mission to tidy up her place

A mother's intuition is like a kangaroo's

She hops around, she mops the ground

She fusses over you



A mother

With her intuition

Will know just what to do



It's a mother's intuition to wash her baby

Well she won't forget behind the ears

And the extra soap suds on the tail

A mother's into cleaning

She'll clean until she's through

She's smart enough

She's wise enough

To add up two and two



A mother

With her intuition

Will know just what to do



A mother has a feeling

She pays special attention

If someone is concealing

If someone's playing tricks

She rubs and scrubs and scours the secrets

Until the answer clicks



Then she takes a brush

And polishes your teeth

She'll make you shine and sparkle new

Until she finds the real you

Underneath



Isn't it charming?

Just mommy and little Roo

Fresh as a daisy

Sparkling just like new



It's a mother's intuition

It's a mother's intuition

It's a mother's intuition

JETHRO TULL lyrics - It's Breaking Me Up

So many long days. In so many ways.

I try to get through to what lies deep inside of you.

Oh, baby. I said, you're breaking me up, woman.

Yeah, you're breaking me down.

You're lying in little pieces --

scattered all around.



You're doing your worst to see me get hurt.

You're waiting to see the tears running out of me.

But, oh, baby, I said you're breaking me up, woman.

You're breaking me down.

You're lying in little pieces --

scattered all around.



My teares have run dry and you wonder why.

I've found a new woman who don't do the things you can.

Oh, baby, I said you're breaking me up, woman.

You're breaking me down.

You're lying in little pieces --

scattered all around.

YANNI lyrics - Desire

Llena el aire con mis antojos

Prende el fuego en mi corazon

Que te acerquen todos los ojos

Que si te muestra pasion



Bailame, sin parar

Vuelvete tormenta en mi mar

Que te miren asi, irradiando calor

Entregate a este ritual de amor



Tu meneo vuelve loco a cualquiera

Traes la rumba en tus caderas

Puro sabor



Ya no aguanto este deseo

Y es que la carne me obliga

Yo daria mi vida todo por ti

Enredarme entre tu cuerpo

Tus labios invadir

Tan siquiera un momento

Serlo todo en ti



Rie, baila, sueltate el pelo

Todos quieren verte bailar

Tu hermosura enciende los suenos

Provoca ganas de amar



Negate mucho mas

La miel de tu veneno me da

Tengo ya deseo en ti

Despeinado el dolor

Haz de mi tu esclavo de amor



Tu veneno vuelve loco a cualquiera

Traes la rumba en tus caderas

Puro sabor



Ya no aguanto este deseo

Y es que la carne me obliga

Yo daria mi vida todo por ti

Enredarme entre tu cuerpo

Tus labios invadir

Tan siquiera un momento

Serlo todo tu sentir

UB40 lyrics - Lisa

I admire you from afar

You've changed the way I see

I used to think that I

Should make you be like me

But after this short time

Watching what you do

I realise that I

Should strive to be like you



Whenever I am near you

I tread so awkwardly

Afraid someone may steal you

I guard you jealously



Then sing the world your praises

Let everybody know

That I just saw the future

A place I want to go



I admire you from afar

You've changed the way I see

I used to think that I

Should make you be like me

But after this short time

Watching what you do

I realise that I

Should strive to be like you



I hear you when you're talking

Untouched simplicity

Alive with expectations

In search of what might be



I admire you from afar

You've changed the way I see

I used to think that I

Should make you be like me

But after this short time

Watching what you do

I realise that I

Should strive to be like you



Then sing the world your praises

Let everybody know

That I just saw the future

A place I want to go



I hear you when you're talking

Untouched simplicity

Alive with expectations

In search of what might be



Then sing the world your praises

Let everybody know

That I just saw the future

A place I want to go



I hear you when you're talking

Untouched simplicity

Alive with expectations

In search of what might be



Then sing the world your praises

Let everybody know

That I just saw the future

A place I want to go

NEW EDITION lyrics - It's Christmas (All Over The World)

All my life, I've tried to do what's right. First star I see tonight, please make my wish come true.

Why can't we join hands around one tree? Let live and let it be.

Make Christmas last forever.



When Santa's flying in his magic sleigh,

Goes all around the world in just a day.

From the North Pole to the Southern tip,

He makes his trip with gifts to give away. Hear him say,



"It's Christmas, all over the world tonight.

It's Christmas, all over the world."



All my life, I learned if I was good, and did everything I should, my dreams would all come true.

I can see a special time when we join hands around one tree,

And Christmas lasts forever.



When Santa's flying in his magic sleigh,

Goes all around the world in just a day.

From the North Pole to the Southern tip,

He makes his trip with gifts to give away. Hear him say,



"It's Christmas, all over the world tonight.

It's Christmas, all over the world."
