CAMEL lyrics - Rose Of Sharon



Love, are you awake or are you sleeping?

I'm so excited I could die...

starting out our lives.

Must make some plans for the future

now we need to settle down...

make a home our own.



What we gonna do when the baby comes?

It won't be long.



Love, am I awake or am I dreaming?

I'm so excited I could cry.

At times I'm so afraid.

Say you'll get a job

and never leave us...

Though I know you'll make it right,

Find a better life.



What we gonna do when the baby comes?

It won't be long.



Don't you ever go,

say you'll never leave

Promise you won't ever leave.



Don't leave me,

We need you.

Rose

I will try to settle down but

I can't tell the future

Rose

I will try to stay around but

I don't know the future



Oh Rose,

you'll never know,

just how much I need

you so.



Oh Rose, you'll never see

Just how much you mean

to me



But Rose,

This road is so hard and long

and I just can't say.


GEORGE BENSON lyrics - Love Of My Life



You are the love of my life

I knew it right from the start

The moment I looked at you

You found a place in my heart



You are the love of my life

You give me reason to live

You taught me how to be strong

With you is where I belong



No one's ever touched me

Quite the way you touched me

People search a life time

To find what we have



You are the love of my life

One thing that's good in this life

I'll spend the rest of my days

Just loving you



You are the love of my life

The heart and sould of my life

Once I was lost and alone

With you at last I am home



You are the love of my life

You give me reason to live

You give me so much of you

And leave me room to be free



No one's ever touched me

Quite the way you touched me

People search a life time

To find what we have



You are the love of my life

One thing that's good in this life

And in a world full of change

One thing I'm sure of



You are the love of my life

The one thing that makes sense in this world

I'll spend the rest of my days

Just loving you



You are the love of my life

And I thank god I'm alive

To spend my lifetime with you

You are the love of my life

PORTER WAGONER AND DOLLY PARTON lyrics - Milwaukee Here I Come



(Lee Fikes)



I'm gonna get on that old turnpike and I'm gonna ride

I'm gonna leave this town 'til you decide

Which one you want the most, them Opery stars or me

Milwaukee here I come from Nashville, Tennessee



Milwaukee's where we were before we came here

Working in a brewery, making the finest beer

She came to me on a payday night, said

"Let's go to Tennessee," so we came down to Nashville to the Grand Ole Opery



We turned on the TV, Porter Wagoner was singing loud

I said that's the man for me, I love him, there's no doubt

I'm leaving now see if I can find out where he's at

And if I can't find him, I'll settle for that bluegrass Lester Flatt



I'm going now and trade my old Ford for an Olds

I might get all drunked up and trade it for a Rolls

But there's one thing I know for sure, I'll always be blue

There ain't no way to get drunk enough to stop loving you


KISS lyrics - Turn On The Night



Everyone's thinkin' they're so hot tonite,

but there's a fire in your eyes

Everybody wants you girl,

but I want you more than any other guy

You got what I want, I got what you need, fire below

So if you know it, show it, don't let me go, whooah

Turn on the night - I can't wait, can't wait any longer

Turn on the night - yeah,

I wanna feel this feeling get stronger



Take me in your arms, I'll take you into my heart

Let's bring this love to life



C'mon baby put your finger on the switch,

let's make some sparks ignite

Show me what you want, show me what you need, fire below

C'mon and take me, shake me, don't let me go, whooah



Chorus:

Turn on the night - I can't wait, can't wait any longer

Turn on the night - yeah,

I wanna feel this feeling get stronger

Turn on the night - I can't wait, can't wait any longer

Turn on the night - yeah,

you know this feeling keeps getting stronger



Hey babe - you got what I want,

I got what you need, fire below

So if you know it, show it, don't let me go, whooah



chorus



(repeats out)


A-HA lyrics - There's Never A Forever Thing



Dearest...

Close your eyes now

Don't you cry

It's all right



Lie back

Leave the lights on

It's all right, dear



I'll be here through the night

With you till the first signs of light

Say the word and I'll come tonight



It's all right now

Don't you cry now

Hush...

Wipe your tears away

There's never a forever thing



All through the night

I'll try so hard to be there somehow

With you till the first signs of light

Say the word and I'll come

Tonight



Darling, don't you

Cry.


THE BANGLES lyrics - In Your Room



I love it in your room at night

You're the only one who gets through to me

In the warm glow of the candlelight

Oh, I wonder what you're gonna do to me.



(In your room)

I come alive when I'm with you

I'll do anything you want me to

In your room.



I love it in your room all day

When you're gone I like to try on all your clothes

You won't regret it if you let me stay

I'll teach you everything that a boy should know.



(In your room)

I'm alive when I'm with you

Gonna make your dreams come true

In your room.



I feel good in your room

Let's lock the world out

Feels so good when we kiss

Nobody ever made me crazy like this.



I love it in your room at night

You're the only one who gets through to me

In the warm glow of the candlelight

Oh, I wonder what you're gonna do to me.



(In your room)

I'll do anything you want me to

Only wanna be with you

In your room, in your room.



I feel good in your room

Let's lock the world out

Feels so good when we kiss

Nobody ever made me crazy like this.



In your room, in your room.

(In your room...in your room)

(In your room...in your room)

(In your room).

TERESA BREWER lyrics - A Tear Fell



(Dorian Burton and Eugene Randolph)



A fool am I, a fool am I, in love



A tear fell when I saw you

In the arms of someone new

A tear fell when you left me

All alone and feeling blue

A tear fell when you told me

That your love was not for me

I didn't miss the teardrops

But I missed you constantly

A fool am I, a fool am I, in love



The teardrops that you stepped on

As you danced across the floor

Were crushed like my poor heart was

When you walked out of my door

A tear fell when you told me

That the flame in your heart died

Darlin', have I lost you

Like these teardrops from my eyes

A fool am I, a fool am I, in love



[Instrumental Interlude]



A tear fell when you told me

That your love was not for me

I didn't miss the teardrops

But I missed you constantly

A fool am I, a fool am I, in love


MICHAEL JACKSON lyrics - Speechless



Your love is magical, that's how I feel

But I have not the words here to explain

Gone is the grace for expressions of passion

But there are worlds and worlds of ways to explain

To tell you how I feel

But I am speechless, speechless

That's how you make me feel

Though I'm with you I am far away and nothing is for real

When I'm with you I am lost for words, I don't know what to say

My head's spinning like a carousel, so silently I pray

Helpless and hopeless, that's how I feel inside

Nothing's real, but all is possible if God is on my side

When I'm with you I am in the light where I cannot be found

It's as though I am standing in the place called Hallowed Ground

Speechless, speechless, that's how you make me feel

Though I'm with you I am far away and nothing is for real

I'll go anywhere and do anything just to touch your face

There's no mountain high I cannot climb

I'm humbled in your grace

Speechless, speechless, that's how you make me feel

Though I'm with you I am lost for words and nothing is for real

Speechless, speechless, that's how you make me feel

Though I'm with you I am far away, and nothing is for real

Speechless, speechless, that's how you make me feel

Though I'm with you I am lost for words and nothing is for real

SpeechlessYour love is magical, that's how I feel

But in your presence I am lost for words

Words like, "I love you."


LYLE LOVETT lyrics - Once Is Enough



(Lyle Lovett)



I used to be so much more open minded

And I used to like to fall in love

And they tell me I was so much sweeter and kinder

But once is enough



Yeah I used to be Mr. Understanding

I used to could listen and not interrupt

But now I'm a different man than that man then

'Cause once is enough



And once is enough for anybody

Once is enough to fall in love

Once is enough to feel your heart beat

Once is enough



And yeah I used to be able to handle rejection

I used to be so long lean and tough

And I used to would fight for a woman's affection

But once is enough



Once is enough for anybody

Once is enough to fall in love

Once is enough to feel your heart beat

Once is enough



So baby you don't have to tell me two times

You can save your sweet breath because

I saw the way you looked away from my eyes

And once is enough



But a man can't help can't help but learn his lesson

But a man he can't help the stars above

And a man can't help but go around messing

With once is enough



Once is enough for anybody

Once is enough to fall in love

Once is enough too feel your heart beat

Once is enough



So if you see me down by the byway

Won't you tell me you'll do this much

Take your head just one time and turn it my way

'Cause once is enough



And once is enough for anybody

Once is enough to fall in love

Once is enough to feel your heart beat

Once is enough


LOU REED lyrics - The Bed



This is the place where she lay her head

When she went to bed at night

And this is the place our children were conceived

Candles lit the room brightly at night



And this is the place where she cut her wrists

That odd and fateful night

And I said, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, what a feeling

And I said, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, what a feeling



This is the place where we used to live

I paid for it with love and blood

And these are the boxes that she kept on the shelf

Filled with her poetry and stuff



And this is the room where she took the razor

And cut her wrists that strange and fateful night

And I said, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, what a feeling

And I said, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, what a feeling



I never would have started if I'd known

That it's end this way

But funny thing, I'm not at all sad

That it stopped this way



This is the place where she lay her head

When she went to bed at night

And this is the place our children were conceived

Candles lit the room brightly at night



And this is the place where she cut her wrists

That odd and fateful night

And I said, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, what a feeling

And I said, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, what a feeling

OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN lyrics - Never Enough



(John Farrar/Pat Farrar)



Twelve hours a day ain't such a long time

It's only a means to an end

He thinks that his pay will buy her devotion

But he's only payin' for her to pretend

What more can he do but give her his heart

Wrapped up in a love so sincere

Lookin' around at all that they have

It seems clear



That it's never enough, never never enough

Why is all that we have simply never enough?

No it's never enough, never never enough

It's so sad

Is anything ever enough?



She ran out of time for people who loved her

Their love couldn't get her nowhere

Isn't it sad she started collecting

Friends who are strangers but she doesn't care

Surrounding herself with phonies and fools

Who tell her what she wants to hear

Looking around at all that they have it seems clear



That it's never enough, never never enough

Why is all that we have simply never enough?

No it's never enough, never never enough

It's so sad

Is anything ever enough?



Why must we want so much more than we have?

Will we never be satisfied?

Just look around

How can we feel so denied?



But it's never enough, never never enough

Why is all that we have simply never enough?

No, it's never enough, never never enough

It's so sad

Is anything ever enough?

Enough

[Repeats]


STATUS QUO lyrics - Over The Edge



(Lancaster / Lamb)



I'm shaking all over

From my head to my feet

I thought I was cold but

I've been really feeling the heat

You're turning me on

You're driving me crazy



My temperature's rising

When I'm talking to you

It wouldn't surprise me

If you told me a hundred and two

What's going on?

You're driving me crazy



And I'm falling, I'm falling, I'm falling

Yeah I'm falling, Im falling' I'm falling

I've never felt like it before

Surely it's against the law

What's going on?

What's going on?

What's going on?

You're driving me crazy



You gave me the fever

And the fever is hot

Taking me higher and higher

Right to the top

Don't let it stop

You're driving me crazy



You gotta believe me

'cos I never pretend

You're doing it now

So do it again

And again

Turning me on

Driving me crazy



And I'm falling, I'm falling, I'm falling

Yeah I'm falling, Im falling' I'm falling

And like I said before

Surely it's against the law

What's going on?

What's going on?

What's going on?

You're driving me crazy



Over the edge, I'm falling

Over the edge, I'm falling



Never felt like it before

Surely it's against the law

What's going on?

What's going on?

You're driving me crazy

You're driving me crazy

You're driving me crazy

You're driving me crazy

You're driving me crazy



I'm shaking all over

From my head to my feet

I thought I was cold but

I'm a-feeling the heat

My temperature's rising

When I'm talking to you

It wouldn't surprise me

It's a-hundred-and-two

You gave me the fever

And the fever is hot

It's taking me higher

Right to the top

You gotta believe me

'cos I never pretend

You're doing it now

So do it again



I'm shaking all over

From my head to my feet

I'm shaking all over

I'm shaking all over

I'm shaking all over

From my head to my feet

I'm shaking all over

I'm shaking all over

I'm shaking all over

From my head to my feet

I'm shaking all over

Shaking all over


PRINCE lyrics - Sister



I was only 16 but I guess that's no excuse

My sister was 32, lovely, and loose

She don't wear no underwear

She says it only gets in her hair

And it's got a funny way of stoppin' the juice

My sister never made love to anyone else but me

She's the reason for my, uh, sexuality

She showed me where it's supposed to go

A blow job doesn't mean blow

Incest is everything it's said to be

Oh, sister

Don't put me on the street again

Oh, sister

I just want to be your friend

I was only 16 and only half a man

My sister didn't give a goddamn

She only wanted to turn me out

She [took a whip to] me until I shout

"Oh, [motherfuckersjustamotherfucker]

Can't you understand?"

Oh, sister

Don't put me on the street again

Oh, sister

I just want to be your friend

I know what you want me to do

Put me on the street

And make me blue

Oh, sister, oohoohoooow


BRIAN ENO lyrics - Spinning Away



Up on a hill, as the day dissolves

With my pencil turning moments into line

High above in the violet sky

A silent silver plane - it draws a golden chain



One by one, all the stars appear

As the great winds of the planet spiral in

Spinning away, like the night sky at Arles

In the million insect storm, the constellations form



On a hill, under a raven sky

I have no idea exactly what I've drawn

Some kind of change, some kind of spinning away

With every single line moving further out in time



And now as the pale moon rides (in the stars)

Her form in my pale blue lines (in the stars)



And there, as the world rolls round (in the stars)

I draw, but the lines move round (in the stars)



There, as the great wheels blaze (in the stars)

I draw, but my drawing fades (in the stars)



And now, as the old sun dies (in the stars)

I draw, and the four winds sigh (in the stars)


JOHN HIATT lyrics - Go Down Swingin'



Kickin' and a-screamin'

Only way I learn

I'm afraid of my own shadow

Not the bridge around the turn



Well I lost myself and found myself

While you were kissin' ass

And I know it's not your nature

Just to let me pass



I'm gonna go down swingin'

Singin' till the end

I'm gonna go down swingin'

You and me and your best friend

I'm gonna go down swingin'

Upper cut and two left jabs

I'm gonna go down swingin' with everything I have



Sometimes I am a predator

Prowlin' for my life

Other times I am a field mouse

Running for the sides

Of the biggest, flattest corn field

Bigger than my Indiana home

'Til the harvest comes along

And I leave my tiny bones



I'm gonna go down swingin'

Singin' till the end

I'm gonna go down swingin'

Like the Duke recommends

I'm gonna go down swingin'

For the bleachers in left field

I'm gonna go down swingin' like a blade of steel



There's a scarecrow scarin' nothin'

Trumpet player in the barn

And he's puffin' both his cheeks out

And he's liftin' both his arms



As he blows his notes to heaven

As the preacher dunks you in

And all along the river

The air is sweet as sin



I wanna go down singin'

Hallelujah Gabriel

I wanna go down singin'

Oh, you play the blues so well

I wanna go down swingin'

Three sheets to the wind

I wanna go down swingin', punch drunk to the end

IRVING BERLIN lyrics - I'm Down In Honolulu Looking Them Over



[1st verse:]

You know my Uncle Jeremiah

Who disappeared a month ago

We got a letter from Hawaii

And I declare, my uncle's there

The atmosphere set him on fire

It simply went right to his head

What do you think he wrote

In his little note?

This is what he said



[Refrain:]

I'm down in Honolulu looking them over

I'm down in Honolulu living in clover

Try and guess the way they dress

No matter what you think it is, it's even less

Their language is hard to understand because it's so tricky

I've got them teaching me to say "wicky wicky"

I don't know what it means but it's the best that ever was

And if it means just what I think it does

I'll be in Honolulu looking them over for a long, long time



[2nd verse:]

My brother said "It's very nifty

Our Uncle's got the right idea"

Although my brother's very thrifty

He sent a wire to Jeremiah

He said "I'll go you fifty fifty

With ev'ry Hula girl you see"

My brother nearly died

Uncle just replied

Please don't bother me


SPARKS lyrics - Pineapple



(Ron Mael)



Tropical air helps us harvest all year

And serves to promote the vitamin C content

In turn yielding greater demand



Pineapple: Got to send a case to the city jail

The warden likes it because it won't conceal

Any sort of handmade weapons

That are baked right into their buns

And the taste is delectable

But won't the prisoners hit the table and shout

Pineapple, pineapple, pineapple fulfills every need

Pineapple: shares are gonna divide

Pineapple: if in us you confide



Got a contract for all of the schools

They will use it for all of their meals

Sure, the kids will throw it real far

'Cause it ain't a milk chocolate bar

But you know it don't stain so bad

But won't the fling it at a friend and then shout

Pineapple: tastes too healthy to me

Pineapple: it's filled with vitamin C

Pineapple: fulfills every need

Pineapple: to all the ships at sea

Pineapple: for the English at tea

Pineapple: to the Siamese twins

Pineapple: to heal those who have sinned

Ship some to the Alpine skiing team

The coach won't have to worry 'bout the calories

Sure it ain't strudel (they're nice)

But it helps your balance on ice

Puts you back on the winning trail



But don't the players moan and groan and then shout:

Pineapple: we get it every old night

Pineapple: but we're winning all right

Pineapple fulfills every need

Pineapple: shares are gonna divide

Pineapple: if in us you confide

Pineapple fulfills every need

Pineapple: upward trends are forseen

Pineapple: so invest in Big P

Pineapple fulfills every need

Pineapple: and the tins can be used

Pineapple: for anything that you choose

Pineapple, pineapple



We'll jet you there, breathe the Hawaiian air

Where hula is life, and luaus are for the wife

So visit our factory soon


ANNIE HASLAM lyrics - Blessing In Disguise



Every drop of water

descending like a pearl

lays upon the silken skin

of this perfect girl



The breeze around her body

moved upwards to her face

it held on like a baby

that found its resting place



Voices from the night before

cannot be denied

suddenly revealing

all the pain inside

Entering a well of thoughts

all her fears subside

all the bad things turning to

a blessing in disguise



She was the faintest flower

washed in by the tide

sending silent messages

to the world outside



Her face began to soften

her lips took on a smile

the people who had loved her

came rushing to her side



Voices from the night before

cannot be disguised

suddenly revealing

all the pain inside

Entering a well of thoughts

all her fears subside

all the bad things turning to

a blessing in disguise


MEGADETH lyrics - Almost Honest



(Dave Mustaine/Marty Friedman)



I lied just a little

When I said I need you

You stretched the truth

When you said that you knew

Just can't believe it

There's nothing to say

I was almost honest, almost



Living alone, can't stand this place

It's four in the morning and I still see your face



I was nearly pure

When I said I loved you

You were semi-sincere

You said I'd bleed for you

We were kind of candid

Now you've gone away

You were almost honest, almost



Living alone, falling from grace

I want to atone but there's just empty space

I can't face tomorow, now you're not coming back

Walked off in the night and just left me the tracks



I question your call by the tone of your voice

I know I should hang up but I don't have a choice

It happend that night when you told me to go

Don't ask who's to blame, I don't know



Almost, almost honest

Almost, I was almost honest

DOLLY PARTON, LINDA RONSTADT, EMMYLOU HARRIS lyrics - Those Memories Of You



(Alan O'Bryant)



Those memories of you still haunt me

Every night when I lay down

I'll always love you my little darling

Until the day they lay me down



In dreams of you my body trembles

I wake up and call your name

But you're not there, and I'm so lonesome

Without your love I'd go insane



Those memories of you still haunt me

Every night when I lay down

I'll always love you my little darling

Until the day they lay me down



I close my eyes and you're there with me

Your kiss I feel, your face I see

It's not your lips now that drive me crazy

It's just your haunting memory



Those memories of you still haunt me

Every night when I lay down

I'll always love you my little darling

Until the day they lay me down



Until the day they lay me down


10CC lyrics - Runaway



Remember I'm the one who didn't have a lot to say

I was trying to find the courage, but I let you walk away

And I can't forget your face, y'know it haunts me all the time

And it seems to me you're living in a dream

Wish we could run away, we could be alone together

Far away, leave the world behind

Runaway, runaway, what I want to say is

You're a part of me, let me be a part of you

I want to tell you what I'm thinking, but the words get in the way

When I'm sitting here alone I find the things I meant to say

If I wrote them in a letter, would you read between the lines

Would you understand how much I really care

Wish we could run away, we could be alone together

Far away, leave the world behind

Runaway, runaway, what I want to say is

You're a part of me, let me be a part of you

[I] I love you

[Need] I need you

[You] Don't want to live without you

If I'm backward counting forward, would you help me realize

All the answers to the questions I've been asking with my eyes

I could hand you all the cliches, but you've heard them all before

And I want to say I love you in my own way

And could we run away, we could be alone together

Far away, leave the world behind

Runaway, runaway, what I want to say is

You're a part of me, let me be a part of you

Runaway, runaway, we could be alone together

Far away, leave the world behind

Runaway, I love you, I need you

What I want to say is, I want you

You're a, I love you, part of me, I need you

Let me be a part of you

BONEY M lyrics - I Feel Good



What a beautiful morning

Just to wake up beside you

Is something I've missed for so long

I'm so glad that you came back home



Baby let me tell you

How my days slipped away

And how I was afraid of the night

But now I'm alright



I feel good

Feeling like a lover should

What else can I say

Won't forget the day

You came back to stay

I feel so good (I feel good, I feel good, I feel good)

Finally we understood

You and me were meant

True lovers from the start

We can never part



Our love is grown stronger

More than any temptation

In this world could possibly be

There's no doubt 'cause it's plain to see



I feel good

Feeling like a lover should

What else can I say

Won't forget the day

You came back to stay

I feel so good (I feel good, I feel good, I feel good)

Finally we understood

You and me were meant

True lovers from the start

We can never part



I feel good

Feeling like a lover should

What else can I say

Won't forget the day

You came back to stay

I feel so good (I feel good, I feel good, I feel good)

Finally we understood

You and me...

DOLLY PARTON lyrics - Wrong Direction Home



(Dolly Parton)



In a shingle covered cottage at the foothills of blue stacks

Near a mountain stream that's flowing crystal clear

Where the humming birds and honey bees feed on Mama's roses

My mem'ries just grow sweeter with the years

Mem'ries of my childhood are as sweet as mountain honey

And as fresh as a dew on morning glory vines

I grew up surrounded by the sights and sounds of nature

And they're forever present in my mind



But I'm headed in the wrong direction home

Headed in the wrong direction home

There's no place like home

But I'm headed in the wrong direction home



Teardrops mingled with the summer rain that was a falling

The day I left my mountain home behind

With a suitcase in my hand and a hope in my heart

I was following a dream I had to find



In that shingled covered cottage at the foothills of the smokies

Waits a family hat I'm longing to see

And mountain streams and fields of green

And rolling hills stay in my dreams

But I'm many, many miles from Tennessee



And still headed in the wrong direction home

Headed in the wrong direction home

But maybe I'll get back before too long

But I'm headed in the wrong direction home

SINEAD O'CONNOR lyrics - It's All Good



I am an angry man yeah, I vent it when I can, yeah

On the bag, not the skag

The negativity, yeah, pushed onto young paddy, yeah

Is a shame, whose to blame?

And when the baby cries, yeah, she has been criticised, yeah

Been put down, it's passed down



[Chorus:]

But it's all good, it's all good

All I say to you today

It's all good, sure it's all good

All I say to you today



And positivity, yeah, it is the way for me, yeah

It is truth, it is youth

They try to keep us down, yeah

They hide the high kings crown, yeah

From the Gaels, Kathleen wails

And to survive their sting, yeah

You have to be the king, yeah

Grasp the wealth of yourself



[Chorus]



Love yourself today, ok, ok

Love yourself today, ok, ok


LOS LOBOS lyrics - It'll Never Be Over For Me



(Bobrick/Blagman)



I know you've come

To tell me that it's over

Oh, oh, well, all right

I'll let you go free



But, baby

Thought it may be over for you

It'll never be over for me



Made up my mind

Not to start crying, oh, oh

But there's more

Than the eye can see



'Cause, baby, inside

My heart is breaking apart

'Cause it'll never be over for me



I'll know every time

I look up at a star, yeah, yeah

Top40db. net: The most accurate lyrics site on the net.

Your face is gonna come in view



And every time

The wild wind touches my lip

I'll think of your kiss

And feel so blue



If ever you find

That you were mistaken, oh, oh

No matter how long

That my heart beats



Just come on back

Oh, forget about everything, yes

'Cause it may be

May be over for you, yeah

But it'll never be over for me, oh, no

B. B. KING lyrics - Three O'Clock In The Morning



(B. B. King / Jules Taub)



Thank you so much, we thank you

Thank you ladies and gentlemen

Right here we're going all back to the begun

All we go to the very beginnin'

Before we made this and very few people knew about, B. B. King



We go all back this time

You remind and go back one time, do you?

Sometimes you feel good go back and start all over again

Oh boy!

You show so good to me, I will tell that

That you are



Now here it is, three o'clock in the morning,

Oh can't even close my eyes

Oh yes

It's three o'clock in the morning baby,

Oh, I can't even close my eyes

Well, you know I can't find my baby,

Keep on lookin' be satisfied



I've looked around me, people,

Hey, and my baby she knows she can't be found

Looked all around me, people,

Oh, my baby, she can't be found

Well, you know if I don't find my baby,

People, I'm going down to the Golden Ground



That's where the fellows hang out down there,

They shoot pool, you know



Goodbye, everybody,

Oh, I do believe this is the end,

Oh, oh, goodbye everybody,

Oh I do believe that this is the end.

Oh I want you to tell my baby,

Oh, to forgive me for my sins



A guy feels lonely then, when you hear something like that

You can't do whatever you wanna do

Because your mind is on the person you know

You figure something you've done

You don't know what it is because she won't tell you

But every time you look at her, she just starts to crying and won't say nothing

Then you say to yourself



It's my own fault, baby,

Treat me the way you wanna do,

Oh, yes, my own fault, baby,

Treat me the way you wanna do

Because when you would love me, baby,

Oh, a good time looked down,

That wouldn't be true



I go up on my feet and I had a lot of friends,

Now bad luck has hit me people,

And now I'm down again

Oh, I wonder why?

Why does everything have to happen to me?

I'm blue and I'm lonesome, people,

My heart is filled with misery



Once I had a lotta money,

They say the greatest man until

But bad luck has hit me now,

Pain has got me down

Yes, I wonder why, people

Why does everything have to happen to me?

I say I'm blue and I'm lonesome, people,

My heart is filled with misery


SOCIAL DISTORTION lyrics - Lost Child



Picked up by the police, only seventeen

What did he do, what did he say?

His father left him as a little boy

His mother turned tricks just to buy his toys



72 hour evaluation

Immediate psychiatric help

But Johnny wasn't crazy

He was just an angry boy



Years later, nothing much has changed

Liquor, drugs and gangs have made him a man

Living in the streets in a world of his own

He stops and watches his heart turn to stone



He's an important person now

He's running with a wayward crowd

But Johnny wasn't crazy

He was just a lonely boy



The pain got too great, an eventual suicide

Fear and anger were trapped deep inside

If only Johnny could have opened up his heart

Then me and Johnny wouldn't never had to part



He's tired of running the vicious circle

He loaded and cocked his.45

But Johnny wasn't crazy

He was just a frightened boy



Oh,

How many Johnnys must there be?

Oh Johnny

How I wish you were here

AEROSMITH lyrics - Jaded



Hey j-j-jaded, you got your mama's style

But you're yesterday's child to me

So jaded

You think that's where it's at

But is that where it's supposed to be

You're gettin' it all over me and serrated



My my baby blue

Yeah I been thinkin' about you

My my baby blue

Yeah you're so jaded

And I'm the one that jaded you



Hey j-j-jaded

In all it's misery

It will always be what I love and hated

And maybe take a ride to the other side

We're thinkin' of

We'll slip into the velvet glove

And be jaded



My my baby blue

Yeah I'm thinkin about you

My my baby blue

Yeah I'm so jaded

And baby I'm afraid of you



Your thinking's so complicated

I've had it all up to here

But it's so overrated

Love and hated

Wouldn't trade it

Love me jaded



Hey j-j-jaded

There ain't no baby please

When I'm shootin the breeze with her

When everything you see is a blur

And ectasy's what you prefer



My my baby blue

My my baby blue

Yeah I've been thinkin' about you

My my baby blue

Yeah you're so jaded

Baby

Jaded

Baby

You're so jaded

'Cause I'm the one that jaded you

ELTON JOHN lyrics - I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues



Don't wish it away

Don't look at it like it's forever

Between you and me I could honestly say

That things can only get better



And while I'm away

Dust out the demons inside

And it won't be long before you and me run

To the place in our hearts where we hide



And I guess that's why they call it the blues

Time on my hands could be time spent with you

Laughing like children, living like lovers

Rolling like thunder under the covers

And I guess that's why they call it the blues



Just stare into space

Picture my face in your hands

Live for each second without hesitation

And never forget I'm your man



Wait on me girl

Cry in the night if it helps

But more than ever I simply love you

More than I love life itself


BRENDA LEE lyrics - Proud Mary



(J. C. Fogerty)



Left a good job in the city

Working for the man both night and day

But I never lost a minute of sleep

Worrying 'bout the way things might have been



Big wheel, keep on turning

Proud Mary, keep on burning

Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river



Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis

I said I pumped a lot of tan in New Orleans

But I never saw the good side of a city

Till I hitched a ride on a riverboat queen



I said you know that I'm rolling, rolling

You know that I'm rolling' on the river



Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river

If you come down to the city

Bet you gonna find some people who live

You don't have to live if you ain't got no money

People on the river that know how to give



You know I said that I'm rolling, rolling

I'm rolling on the river

I gotta keep on turning, burning, rolling down the river...

TOM JONES lyrics - What Good Am I?



(Bob Dylan)



What good am I some like all the rest

If I just turn away when I see how you're dressed

If I shut myself off so I can't hear you cry

What good am I?



What good am I if I know and don't do

If I see and don't say if I look right through you

If I turn a deaf ear to the thunderin' sky

What good am I?



What good am I while you softly weep

And I hear in my head what you say in your sleep

And I freeze in the moment like the rest who don't try

What good am I?



What good am I then to others and me

If I had every chance and yet still fail to see

If my hands are tied must I not wonder within

Who tied them and why and where must I have been.



What good am I if I say foolish things

And I laugh in the face of what sorrow brings

And I just turn my back while you silently die

What good am I?


QUEEN LATIFAH lyrics - Jersey



["New Jersey Drive" soundtrack]



[Queen Latifah]

Yo what's up this is Queen Latifah in the house

Definetely representin Jersey on the love love

Coolin' in the county; shoot (???)

But damn I miss home



[Chorus 4x:]

I can't.. forget New Jersey



[Verse 1: Queen Latifah]

When I think of home I think of a place where theres no over-flowin

And all my family and peeps I knew when I was growin

Mommy and daddy made me proud to in Owens

So for me to keep goin, I would become

Her eminental royal highness

The Queen Latifah; no doubt; one of New Jersey's finest

So, said it all

Get up on all of my own

Cause Jersey's what I think about when I think of home

Don't let know one get close to you except the chosen

Stick with the ones who meant the most to you

When you were broke and blue, that's how fam do

That's how you stay true around these snakes

That freakin' smile when they hate you

I'm quick to take the ride down for in-town

(Just another day living on a down)

My experience legit, my rhymes is on hit

It's mad truth to the room where we the shit; I can't forget



[Chorus]



[Verse 2: Queen Latifah]

I used to work at Burger King but after takin orders

I used to take the path to Latin Quarters across the waters

Where I learned to do the Who, yo, I couldn't stop

I brought it back around the way to show the peple on my block

Teacher, teacher, tell me how you do it

It looks so simple like that there's nothin to it

So, we meet at Irvan's (???) and after school I run

To the wall of Brookmore boots, there was Solamon

I had a talent for getting up for gear

A petty thief, small time crook of the year

But I chilled cause I had bigger dreams than to steal

And Ramsey came for me and Patchy to put our voices on a reel

And I could hear myself on the radio

"45 King Special Red Alert Show"

Cause that's what life was all about to me

All E-E flavor you did it, represent Jersey



[Chorus]



[Verse 3: Queen Latifah]

I think about my mom and my brothers when I'm all swoll

Shock, Kim, when I'm all swoll

My baby sister. when I'm all swoll

Hostan, when I'm all swoll

Ill-Town, when I all swoll

Jill-Town, J. C, when I'm all swoll

(???) to (???) so on, when I'm all swoll

Recognize the whole mama soul

We got Naughty

In another words we got Nicky

We got Redman, the Order Facts and Whitney (???)

Bruce Springsteen, and a house ah blacks

Shaquille O'Neal, oh he'll catch rack

Tisha Campbell, Jerry Lewis, Tony Bennett

Back spin, or spin it,

Thursday peppermint and I'm in it

Shag do's, I does no fo's in the spot

Cause them peeps is my peeps and my back is got

Nuf' respect to your burough, your block

You're black; I love to see us move as a flock

Unscrapped, against each other

No body armor

Nobody harms a hair on a head, everything calmer

We ghetto stars and fools

We paid the dues

We made the blues

So come on with the come on

And get down with the get down

I'm down with my hometown sound



[Chorus]


RANDY NEWMAN lyrics - Miami



There's a girl over there

With the rhythm everywhere

She's a very fine girl

And she's been awfully nice to me



When we walk as we sometimes do

All the way out to Collins Avenue

Well it's very, very fine

Very, very special

Very



Gee, I love Miami

It's so nice and hot

And every building's so pretty and white

And I always get into so much trouble

When I'm down here

I know these two old stiffs

Live on the Waterway

That's where I like to stay

When I'm down

In



Miami

Blue Day

Best dope in the world

And it's free

Miami

Blue day

Put on your shortie shorts

And your Hawaiian shirt

And come down!



There's a man over there

With the conk in his hair

He's a very bad man

Don't look now

He's really very bad

And his name is Medina

And he comes from Argentina

See that little dog there with him

Well, he treats it just like it was his little boy



Oh, I love Miami

It's so hot

And the women down here

Are so impure

I love to hang around

The big hotels

And sleep in the sun all day



I know this double jointed guy

With the circus in St. Pete

He's with me now

He says hello

From Fourteenth Street

In



Miami

Blue day

Best dope in the world

And it's free

Miami

Blue day

Put on your shortie shorts

And your Hawaiian shirt

And come down!

KINGDOM COME lyrics - Can't Let Go (Director's Cut)



Young at heart you're all confused, I know

That's the reason why you've let me go

Can't forget you, even though I tried

Cannot stop the love I feel inside



Time alone to find out where to go

That is what you needed, now I know

Back then I just never understood

Why you needed time, when things were good



[Chorus:]

I just can't let go, 'cause I need you so

Yes, I do believe in you and I

I do, yes I do, ohh it's true

I love you



You sent letters which put at ease

Lovely notes, which helped me out to breathe

Time is gonna show where you belong

I just hope, it doesn't take too long



I was never hurt like this before

All alone and constantly at war

Peaceful pain is crawling up and down

Scared if you would ever let me drown



I just can't let go, 'cause I need you so

Yes, I do believe in you and I

Never felt so right, from deep down inside

Do I have to burn, for our love to return



It's you that I need, only you

I love you



I need you to get back, baby

I need you to come back, baby



I just can't let go... ...I love you

THE KINKS lyrics - Ducks On The Wall



After dinner Norman becomes depressed.



[Star:]

Norman's office got on my nerves to-day.



[Wife:]

What do you mean? You are Norman!



[Star:]

(Shouts) I am a star!



[Wife:]

You're not a star Norman. You're

Just a plain ordinary little bloke and

Even if you walked down the street in

A silver suit people still wouldn't

Recognise you. You're dull, ordinary

And uninteresting! You're a drag!



Star rises from his chair and smashes

The dinner plates to the floor.



[Star:]

I hate this house and I hate you, but

More than anything else I hate those

Ducks!



[Wife:]

Don't you touch those ducks Norman!

They were a present from my mother.

Look, Norman, I've had enough of you

And your ridiculous fantasies. First of

All you wanted to be a painter, then

You wanted to be an astronaut, then

A footballer and now you're playing at

Being a rock singer. If you touch those

Ducks I'm leaving!



Ducks On The Wall



My baby's got the most deplorable taste,

But her biggest mistake

Is hanging over the fireplace.

She's got ducks, ducks on the wall,

Ducks, ducks, hanging on the wall.



My lady's got a sort of strange fascination,

An obsessive fixation

For cheap decorations

She's got ducks, ducks on the wall.

Ducks, ducks, hanging on the wall.



Wo-wo-wo I love her so but if she doesn't move the ducks,

I think my mind is gonna go.

Ducks ducks on the wall.

Ducks ducks, hanging on the wall.



I leave the office and I want to relax.

Don't want to stare at a wall

And look at a duck that can't quack.

I love you baby but I can't fall

For those ducks on the wall.



I start to snuggle up and squeeze her so tight.

Then out of the corner of my eye

I see those ducks in flight.

I love you baby but I can't ball

When I see those ducks on the wall.



Wo-wo-wo I can sit through your gossip and your soap opera shows,

But those ducks have got to go.

I love you baby but I can't ball

When I see those ducks on the wall.

And when I went to a cocktail party

With the bores next door,

What was the first thing that I saw?

Ducks, ducks on the wall.

Ducks, ducks hanging on the wall.



My baby's got the most deplorable taste,

But her biggest mistake

Is hanging over the fireplace.

She's got ducks, ducks on the wall,

Ducks, ducks hanging on the wall.



I'll sit and look at all the soap operas with her

I'll play all the panel games and watch all the quiz shows,

But those ducks they've got to go,

Those ducks are getting up my nose.



If those ducks can fly, well so can I.

And if those ducks have got to stay

Then I'm going to fly away.

I love you baby but I can't ball

When I see those ducks on the wall.



Ducks, ducks, ducks on the wall.

Ducks, ducks, ducks on the wall.

Oh those ducks on the wall are beginning to move

They're talking to me

I've got to get away from those ducks.


IRVING BERLIN lyrics - The Secret Service



[1st refrain:]

The secret service makes me nervous

When I am dating they are waiting to observe us

When I get ready to hold steady for the kiss you plant

The secret service makes me nervous and I can't



They're always spying, no denying

They're always peeping, gumshoe creeping, private eye-ing

When I'm beginning to give-inning like a maiden aunt

The secret service makes me nervous and I can't



I've been exposed beyond control

Just like a goldfish in a bowl

The President's daughter must drink water

No drink of Scotch, she might do what she hadn't oughter

When I'm ignited, so excited that I start to pant



The secret service makes me nervous

When my lamps are lit and I say "This is it!"

The secret service makes me nervous and I can't



[2nd refrain:]

The secret service makes me nervous

Those White House "dicks" get all their kicks when they observe us

Just as I wind up, make my mind up not to say "I won't"

The secret service makes me nervous and I don't



When things look rosy they get nosy

They'll say there's "tootsie" playing "footsie" very cosy

My pulse goes higher, I'm on fire, shaking at the knees

The secret service makes me nervous and I freeze



Whatever I may do or say

Will be reported the next day

They don't see clearly when I'm merely being courted

When I'm just necking, simply pecking with a "Cary Grant"



They stand behind me to remind me

Who and what I am when I don't give a damn

The secret service makes me nervous and I can't


10,000 MANIACS lyrics - Cotton Alley



(music: John Lombardo / lyrics: Natalie Merchant)



One time

You made me cry

Be proud that I

Remember



My chin is sore

The bruise is gone

But the spot is tender



Gave my hand a sister coy

To Cotton Alley where

You did enjoy

Your wicked games

You curious boy



Tied my laces up together

When I fell

You laughed

Until your belly was sore



In the brick laid aisle behind

The five and dime store



That's how

I made you blush

But doubt if you

Remember



Were my tears genuine

Or those of a skilled

Pretender



Nothing precious

Plain to see

Don't make a fuss over me

Not loud

Not soft

But somewhere in between

Say sorry

Let it be

The word you mean



I was a little pest who

Never took a hint

Could never

Take a hint



You pinched my fingers

In a door

Tossed my coloring book in a

Rusty barrel



Pulled spiders from my hair

Fingers in the door



My favorite blue blouse

Stained on the back

Running from a berry war



Can you hear me scream

In Cotton Alley

Scream in Cotton Alley

In Cotton Alley


BOB DYLAN lyrics - He Was A Friend Of Mine



He was a friend of mine

He was a friend of mine

Every time I think about him now

Lord I just can't keep from cryin'

'Cause he was a friend of mine



He died on the road

He died on the road

He never had enough money

To pay his room or board

And he was a friend of mine



I stole away and cried

I stole away and cried

'Cause I never had too much money

And I never been quite satisfied

And he was a friend of mine



He never done no wrong

He never done no wrong

A thousand miles from home

And he never harmed no one

And he was a friend of mine



He was a friend of mine

He was a friend of mine

Every time I hear his name

Lord I just can't keep from cryin'

'Cause he was a friend of mine.


JOHN DENVER lyrics - Waiting For A Train



(Rodgers)



All around the water tower, waiting for a train.

A thousand miles away from home, sleeping in the rain.

I walked up to a brakeman just to give him a line of talk,

He said if you've got money, I'll see that you don't walk.

Well, I haven't got a nickel, not a penny can I show.

Get off, get off, you railroad bum, and he slammed that boxcar door.



Well, he put me off in Texas, a state I dearly love.

The wide open spaces all round me, the moon and stars up above.

Nobody seems to want me nor to lend me a helping hand.

I'm on my way from 'Frisco, going back to Dixieland.

My pocketbook is empty, my heart is full of pain.

I'm a thousand miles away from home, just waiting for a train.


AEROSMITH lyrics - Chip Away The Stone



Well your actin' like a prima donna

Playin' so hard to get

Actin' so cool and nonchalant

Draggin' on a cigarette



You keep a wall all around ya

I'll get through some day

I want your love babe, but push don't shove

Gonna chip that stone away



Chip away

Chip away at the stone

And I won't stop until your love is my very own

Chip away

That's what I'm gonna do

Sweet little mama I wanna get next to you



Well you stand like a marble statue

Trying to look so hard

All decked out in your antique dress

While the boys all promenade



Even a rock will crumble

If you strike it night and day

If hammer I must, I'm gonna get through your crust

Gonna chip that stone away



Chip away

Chip away at the stone

And I won't stop until your love is my very own

Chip away

That's what I'm gonna do

Sweet little mama I wanna get next to you



Chip away

Chip away at the stone

And I won't stop until your love is my very own

Chip away

That's what I'm gonna do

Sweet little mama I wanna get next to you

Oooh...yes I do...



Chip away

Chip away

At the stone

Chip away

Chip away

At the stone



I won't stop

I won't stop

I won't stop

I won't stop

I won't stop



I won't stop

I won't stop

I won't stop

I won't stop

I won't stop

Won't stop



Chip it, I'm gonna nip it, all night long


DURAN DURAN lyrics - Missing



(LeBon, Rhodes)



And as I wander down to where you lay

The blood rushed up to meet the roses

In your hair

I thought I saw you smile

But now i don't see you anywhere

Whispering your love song in my ear

How can you touch me

When you're not really there?



Stumbling out i made my way towards the open door

Climbing fast the sun broad streaming

Laughter down into your empty gaze

Where can i find out

How i want to join in your games

I hear you calling

I hear you... calling calling calling calling

Whispering your love song in my ear

How can you touch me?

How do you really dare


THE SCORPIONS lyrics - No Limit



(Music: Klaus Meine, Rudolf Schenker, Eric Bazilian / Lyrics: Klaus Meine, Rudolf Schenker, Eric Bazilian)



What's the noise who's to blame

The Maserati comes unchained

Smell the power and energy

Come away, come away, come away



You're the rider of the wildest storm

Live your dreams before they're gone

Feel the spirit that sets you free

Come away, come away, come away



You gotta live it up there's no limit

We gotta make it there's no limit

You give it all you've got there's no limit

Reach for the sky



We gonna leave for tomorrowland

We've got the future on our hands

A piece of heaven for you and me

Come away, come away, come away



You gotta live it up there's no limit

We gotta make it there's no limit

You give it all you've got there's no limit

Reach for the sky



You gotta let it go there's no limit

We gotta take it there's no limit

You leave me hot and cold there's no limit

Reach for the sky



Higher higher

Take me higher always higher

Reach for the sky

THE KINGSTON TRIO lyrics - Marcelle Vahine



Marcelle Vahine ai'a Tahiti a wa'a

Ta mata hata Tahiti

No fatigi, fatigi mata ho



O he no a'utu nu'a hu nu

Ai'a a hulu a o'u

He a hu na'a hu nu'a ei'a na

Ha a'a mai a an tat mahu



[Repeat all]


SARAH MCLACHLAN lyrics - Drawn To The Rhythm



When we wore a heart of stone we wandered to the sea

Hoping to find some comfort there yearning to feel free

And we were mesmerized by the lull of the night and the smells that filled the air

And we layed us down on sandy ground it was cold but we didn't care



[Chorus:]

And we were drawn to the rhythm

Drawn to the rhythm of the sea

And we were drawn to the rhythm

Drawn to the rhythm of the sea



We fell asleep and began to dream when something broke the night

Memories stirred inside of us the struggle and the fight

And we could feel the heat of a thousand voices telling us which way to go

And we cried out is there no escape from the words that plague us so



[Chorus]



In the still and silent dawn another day is born

Washed up by the tireless waves the body bent and torn

When you wake in the face of the blinding sun and you search only to find

That heaven is a stranger place than what you've left behind



[Chorus]

KENNY LOGGINS lyrics - Flying Dreams



Dream by night

Wish by day

Love begins this way.

Loving starts

When open hearts

Touch, and stay.

Sleep for now

Dreaming's how

Lover's lives are planned.

Future songs

And flying dreams,

Hand, in hand.



Love it seems

Made flying dreams

So hearts, could soar.

Heaven sent

These wings were meant

To prove, once more.

That love is the key....

Love is the key.

You and I

Touch the sky

The eagle and the dove.

Nightingales

We keep our sails

Filled with love.

And love it seems

Made flying dreams,

To bring you home to me....



[Instrumental section]



Love it seems

Made flying dreams

So hearts, could soar.

Heaven sent

These wings were meant

To prove, once more.

That love is the key....

Love is the key.



You and I

Touch the sky

The eagle and the dove.

Nightingales

We keep our sails

Filled with love.

Ever strong

Our future song,

To sing it must be free.



Ev'ry part

Is from the heart,

And love is still the key.

And love it seems

Made flying dreams

To bring you home

To me..


THE WHO lyrics - The Dirty Jobs



I am a man who looks after the pigs

Usually I get along okay.

I am man who reveals all he digs,

Should be more careful what I say.



I'm getting put down,

I'm getting pushed round,

I'm being beaten every day.

My life's fading,

But things are changing,

I'm not gonna sit and weep again.



I am man who drives a local bus

I take miners to work, but the pits all closed today.

It's easy to see that you are one of us.

Ain't it funny how we all seem to look the same?



We're getting put down [etc.]



My karma tells me

You've been screwed again.

If you let them do it to you

You've got yourself to blame.

It's you who feels the pain

It's you that feels ashamed.



I am a young man

I ain't done very much,

You men should remember how you used to fight.

Just like a child, I've been seeing only dreams,

I'm all mixed up but I know what's right.



I'm getting put down [etc.]


HOWLIN' WOLF lyrics - Decoration Day



(Chester Burnett a. k.a. Howlin' Wolf)



Lord, I've got a woman, she's nice lovin' in ev'ryway

Lord, I've got a woman, she's nice lovin' in ev'ryway

You know she done died an left me, I had a blues on every decoration day



So sorry to see you to leave me, I hate to see my baby get away

So sorry to see you leave me, I hate to see my baby get away

I want ya to bring me some flowers, about ev'ry decoration day



Lord, I was walkin' 'round her bedside, these was the last the words my baby had to say

Lord, walkin' 'round the bedside, these was the last words my baby had to say

She said, "Bring me some flowers, be sure, honey on ev'ry decoration day"


RICHARD LLOYD lyrics - Cortege



(Lloyd)



I followed him, in a long black car,

In a long line of cars, we headed into the stars

We never played the game, we only headed on down the line

And though he always left with her, still i knew that he was mine

But i know that i will never see him again



We never looked back, but we never looked ahead

So it hit me like a heart attack, when i found out he was...

And it was a summer day, but the leaves fell on the ground

And the children remained at play, but they did so without a sound

And i know that he will never be there again



I know the sun turns around the earth

They say otherwise, but the truth hurts

And it was a long time ago, when he ran into his mother's arms

And she held him oh so close,

And she promised he would never come to harm

But i know that she will never hold him again

I've come just to say good-bye my friend

Good-bye my friend.


BOSTON lyrics - Surrender To Me



(Sikes-Scholz-Laquidara)



I know it never came easy

Girl, you drive me out of my mind

Your fine and still kind of sleazy

Now I want to make you mine

Somehow, I don't believe you

I really need you now

You know you're so good at teasing

Maybe that's what I like

Sometimes you're hot when you're freezing

Don't want to let you out of my sight

Somehow, I don't believe you

I really need you

I don't believe you

And I really need you

(Hey) You never believe what I say

You're gonna surrender someday

Surrender to me



Surrender to me

Surrender to me all the way

Surrender to me all the way (yeah, yeah)

Surrender to me



You've got an attitude

A hardheaded woman that I can't refuse

Your love is kind of rude

You love me like you got nothing to lose

Somehow, I don't believe you

I really need you

I don't believe you

And I really need you



(Hey) You never believe what I say

You're gonna surrender someday

Surrender to me

Surrender to me

Surrender to me all the way

Surrender to me all the way (yeah, yeah)

Surrender to me

All the way

All the way

All the way



All the way

Surrender to me all the way

Surrender to me

Surrender

ELTON JOHN lyrics - Slow Down Georgie (She's Poison)



Hey there Georgie got a couple of things to say

One you're my friend, and two it's hurting me

Seeing you act this way

But my hands are tied and I can only try to talk you out of a fall

`Cause the reputation of the woman you're dating's

About as nasty as the Berlin wall



Slow down Georgie she's poison

Man you've got to watch yourself

She's gonna get in your head, she's gonna crawl in your bed

You're just a stepping stone for someone else



Slow down Georgie she's poison

She's just another divorcee

An undercover lover of a hundred

Other little fish in the sea



You better cut her loose before she gets her hooks in you

If you give her the world, and it was covered in pearls

She'd only ask for the moon

She's got you hypnotised, with her big brown eyes

And a body that could stop a clock

But if you think your face ain't gonna be replaced

Georgie boy you're in for a shock



Well it ain't my job to rain on your parade

But if the chips were down, you'd do the same for me

It's always been that way

She's got you paralysed with a pack of lies

About honour and the single girl

And if you buy that line you must be out of your mind

You must be living in another world


GEORGE BENSON lyrics - Beyond The Sea



Somewhere beyond the sea

Somewhere, waiting for me

My lover stands on golden sands

And watches the ships that go sailing



Somewhere beyond the sea

She's there watching for me

If I could fly like birds on high

Then straight to her arms I'd go sailing



It's far beyond a star

It's near beyond the moon

I know beyond a doubt

My heart will lead me there soon



We'll meet beyond the shore

We'll kiss just as before

Happy we'll be beyond the sea

And never again I'll go sailing!



[Instrumental]



It's far beyond a star

It's near beyond the moon

I know beyond a doubt, yeah!

My heart will lead me there soon



We'll meet, I know we'll meet, beyond the shore

We'll kiss just as before

Happy we'll be beyond the sea

And never again I'll go sailing!



And never again I'll go sailing!

And never again I'll go sailing!

Sailing... yeah!


WHITNEY HOUSTON lyrics - I Go To The Rock



Where do I go?

When there's nobody else to turn to

Who do I talk to?

When nobody wants to listen

Who do I lean on? Oh

When there is no foundation stable

I go to the rock

I know he is able, I go to the rock



[Chorus:]

I go to the rock of my salvation

I go to the stone that the builders rejected

I run to the mountain

And the mountain he stands by me

When the Earth all around me is sinking sand

On Christ the solid rock I stand

When I need a shelter I go to the rock



Where do I go, where do I go

When the storms of life are threatening

Who do I turn to when those winds of sorrow blow

And is there a refuge in the time of tribulation

Go to the rock, I know he is able

I go to the rock



[Repeat Chorus (2X)]



I go the rock when I need a friend

I can go to the rock

I go to the rock when I need a shelter

You can go to the rock

You can go to the rock

You can go to the rock

I can go

I go to the rock

I can go to the rock

I can go to the rock

I can go, I can go to the rock

I can go when I need some shelter

When I need a friend

I can go



And when the Earth around me is sinking sand

On Christ the solid rock I stand I can stand

When I need a friend

I go to the rock

I can go to the rock

Hey hey hey oh yeah


BARBRA STREISAND lyrics - Watch Closely Now



[Performed by Kris Kristofferson]



Warch closely now

Are you watching me now7

Your eyes are like fingers

They're tourhinq my body

And arousing my soul

Riding the passion arising inside me

How high, can I go?

You're comin' witfh me girl, I'm gonna show you how

When it's scary, don't look down



Watch closely now

Are you warching me now?

I see the hunger arise in your eyes

And it's urging me on

Higher and harder ond fasrer ond farther

Than I've ever gone

You're coming closer lady;

Don'tcha leave me now

We're gonna make it,

Don't look down



Maybe I'm takin' me too many chances

With no net at all

Maybe I'll teach you at least that you've

Got to be free when you fall



Warch closely now

Are you watching me now?

I'm the master magician

Who's setting you free

From the lies you've been told

When they're breaking your back

Bring your last straw to me

I turn straw into gold

I'm gonna need you later,

When you're not around

But I can take it, d

Don't look down



Watch closely now...

Are you watching me now?


DEF LEPPARD lyrics - No No No



Oh yeah

She was a foxy rocker, a roxy roller

An unchained sex machine

Yeah

Slippin' slidin', electric glidin'

And boy she was mean, I said mean

High class dealer, sippin' her tequila

Comin' on pretty strong

Real love stealer, rebel rousin' squealer

She said go but I said no



I kept saying no, no no no no no

I kept saying no, no no no no no



Waiting at the back door

Couldn't take it anymore

Didn't know where she'd been

She looked pretty neat, turnin' on the heat

And only seventeen, seventeen

Windin' her up, bringin' her down

She wanted it just the same

Said stick around, that's when I found

I only had myself to blame



I kept saying no, no no no no no

I kept saying no, no no no no no



High class dealer, sippin' on tequila

Comin' on really strong

Rhythm stealer, rattle off squealer

She said go but I said no



Well I kept saying no, no no no no no

Well I kept saying no, no no no no no

Well I kept saying no, no no no no no



I say no no no

I say no no no

I say no no

No no no no no no no

No no no no no no no

DEPECHE MODE lyrics - Walking In My Shoes



I would tell you about the things they put me through

The pain I've been subjected to

But the Lord himself would blush

The countless feasts laid at my feet

Forbidden fruits for me to eat

But I think your pulse would start to rush



Now I'm not looking for absolution

Forgiveness for the things I do

But before you come to any conclusions

Try walking in my shoes

Try walking in my shoes



You'll stumble in my footsteps

Keep the same appointments I kept

If you try walking in my shoes

If you try walking in my shoes



Morality would frown upon

Decency look down upon

The scapegoat fate's made of me

But I promise now, my judge and jurors

My intentions couldn't have been purer

My case is easy to see



I'm not looking for a clearer conscience

Peace of mind after what I've been through

And before we talk of any repentance

Try walking in my shoes

Try walking in my shoes



You'll stumble in my footsteps

Keep the same appointments I kept

If you try walking in my shoes

If you try walking in my shoes

Try walking in my shoes



Now I'm not looking for absolution

Forgiveness for the things I do

But before you come to any conclusions

Try walking in my shoes

Try walking in my shoes



You'll stumble in my footsteps

Keep the same appointments I kept

If you try walking in my shoes

You'll stumble in my footsteps

Keep the same appointments I kept

If you try walking in my shoes

Try walking in my shoes

If you try walking in my shoes

Try walking in my shoes


BOB MARLEY lyrics - So Much Things To Say



Ooh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

Ooh yeah, yeah!

They got so much things to say right now;

They got so much things to say.

They got so much things to say right now;

They got so much things to say.



Eh! But I'll never forget no way: they crucified Je-sus Christ;

I'll never forget no way: they stole Marcus Garvey for rights.

Oo-ooh!

I'll never forget no way: they turned their back on Paul Bogle.

Hey-ey!

So don't you forget (no way) your youth,

who you are and where you stand in the struggle.



They go so very, so very, so very, so very, so very, so very,

so very, so very, so very, so very, so very -

everything they say - so much to say.

They got so much things to say, so much things to say.



I'n'I nah come to fight flesh and blood,

But spiritual wickedness in 'igh and low places.

So while they fight you down,

Stand firm and give Jah thanks and praises.

'Cos I'n'I no expect to be justified

by the laws of men - by the laws of men.

Oh, true they have found me guilty,

But through - through Jah proved my innocency.



Oh, when the rain fall, fall, fall now,

It don't fall on one man's housetop. Remember that:

When the rain fall,

It don't fall on one man's housetop.



They singin': so very much, so very much, oh so very much,

so very, very -

They got so much things to say right now;

yeah, they got so much things to say.



Hey, but I'n'I - I'n'I nah come to fight flesh and blood,

But spiritual wickedness in 'igh and low places.

So while, so while, so while they fight you down,

Stand firm and give Jah thanks and praises.

I'n'I no expect to be justified

by the laws of men - by the laws of men.

Oh, hey through Jah to prove my innocency,

I told you wicked think they found me guilty.



They got la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la;

la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la;

la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la;

la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

- they "la" very much all the time.



So much things to say, rumour about,

they got so much without humour,

they don't know what they're doin', yeah.


PRINCE lyrics - The Sun, The Moon And Stars



Ah-ooh, ah-ah-ooh, ah-ah-ooh, ah-ah-oh-ooh [2x]



It's late and I'm running out of clever things 2 say

The kind that will bring a girl like U 2 tears

There's only one more glass of this rose

Let's throw it on the fire with our past

And dance the night away until...



The sun, the moon and stars

Don't seem as far as they did yesterday

The sun, the moon and stars

In love we R - 4ever, always



It's late and I think it's about time 4 U and me 2 get closer...

2 get closer than we ever did before (ooh)

Whenever there's a tide U can let it ride inside your interior

Lay back, relax upon my shore (Ooh)

Ooh-ooh baby, I wanna make love 2 U right here

One inside the other one - no fear, we're here until...



The sun, the moon and stars

Don't seem as far as they did yesterday

The sun, the moon and stars

In love we R - 4ever, always



Blow out this candle sunlight

And come lay down next 2 me

And paint another rainbow - ooh-wee (ooh-wee)

Eclipse this light with extasy



[...]

Come on, come on

Let's lay down

I'm walking out of what to say

That kind of lucky rhyme

Make a chippy wanna say:

"Whisper in the belly

2 me rocking rose"

Do U like I do

Come on and dance the night away

Let's lay before they get to close the door

U and me, we got 2 get down on the floor

Come on, let the tide ride in and off the shore

I wanna love U once again - and then some more

Lay your head back I got my hand behind your head

Like U do the limbo supple on the bouncy bed

Let's bouncing on the summer spring

And when U start 2 fall

U come like a cold winter due in Montreal



(Come on baby)

(The sun, the moon and stars) - hey-hey, hey-hey

(The tide ride) - hey-hey, hoo-hoo

(The tide ride - hou)



The sun, the moon and stars

Don't seem as far as they did yesterday

The sun, the moon and stars

In love we R - 4ever, always



The sun, the moon and stars

Don't seem as far as they did yesterday

The sun, the moon and stars

In love we R - 4ever, always


IRON MAIDEN lyrics - All In Your Mind



(Del Bromham)



[Originally by Stray]



Look inside your head and find, tell me now and it's all in your mind

Look inside your head and find a way deep inside and it's all in your mind



It's all in your mind

It's all in your mind



Revolution, air pollution, Chairman Mao Tse Tung is in your mind

"But he's dead pal... He's not very well anyway..."

A new day breaking-people hating

Love's a dream and it's all in your mind



[Solo]



Segregation, preservation, politicians all are in your mind

Pewter suta, Karma Sutra, even Blanckenheimer's in your mind



Yes...



It's all in your mind

It's all in your mind

GARY WRIGHT lyrics - Dream Weaver



I've just closed my eyes again

Climbed aboard the dream weaver train

Driver take away my worries of today

And leave tomorrow behind



Ooooh, dream weaver

I believe you can get me through the night

Ooooh, dream weaver

I believe we can reach the morning light



Fly me high through the starry skies

Maybe to an astral plane

Cross the highways of fantasy

Help me to forget todays pain



Ooooh, dream weaver

I believe you can get me through the night

Ooooh, dream weaver

I believe we can reach the morning light



Though the dawn may be coming soon

There still may be some time

Fly me away to the bright side of the moon

And meet me on the other side



Ooooh, dream weaver

I believe you can get me through the night

Ooooh, dream weaver

I believe we can reach the morning light



Dream weaver

Dream weaver


STYX lyrics - Witch Wolf



(James Young, Ray Brandle)



Reoccurring symptoms

Answer the baleful howl

Bringing me dreams of darkness

The doer of all that's foul

Raping the minds of infants

Sower of unplanted seeds

Full moon warrior

Doer of sordid deeds



Witch Wolf

Night Rider

Why do you call for me?



Thirteenth hour madman

Bringing my soul to fire

Visions of my sweet Beulah

To torment soon retire



Witch Wolf

Night Rider

Why do you call for me?



Got my one-way ticket

on this hell bound train

I can't seem to stop falling

I bear the wrath of Cain



Witch Wolf

Night Rider

Why do you call for me?


HELLOWEEN lyrics - Eagle Fly Free



People are in big confusion

They don't like their constitutions

Everyday they draw conclusions

And they're still prepared for war



Some can say what's ineffective

Some make up themselves attractive

Build up things they call protective

Well your life seems quite bizarre



[Bridge:]

In the sky a mighty eagle

Doesn't care 'bout what's illegal

On its wings the rainbow's light

It's flying to eternity



[Chorus:]

Eagle fly free

Let people see

Just make it your own way

Leave time behind

Follow the sign

Together we'll fly someday



Hey, we think so supersonic

And we make our bombs atomic

Or the better quite neutronic

But the poor don't see a dime



Nowadays the air's polluted

Ancient people persecuted

That's what mankind contributed

To create a better time



[Bridge:]

In the sky a mighty eagle

Doesn't care 'bout what's illegal

On its wings the rainbow's light

It's flying to eternity



[Chorus:]

Eagle fly free

Let people see

Just make it your own way

Leave time behind

Follow the sign

Together we'll fly someday



[Solos]


RUFUS AND CHAKA KHAN lyrics - Half Moon



(J. Hall)



Half Moon, Nighttime sky

Silver stone, Heaven's eye

Silver stone from the seven seas

Won't you be sure you bring sweet love home to me



You thrill me like a mountain

You thrill me like a sea

Nighttime's past but still at last your love

Half moon, Nighttime stone



You be sure that you call my name

Telling everybody going around

Won't you tell the world about sweet, sweet love I found you



Thrill me like a mountain

Thrill me like sea a sea, lord!

Nighttime's past, still at last love!

Half moon, Nighttime sky



Silver stone from the seven seas

Won't you be sure you bring your sweet love home to me now!

YES lyrics - And You And I IV: Apocalypse



(Anderson/Bruford/Howe/Squire)



And you and I climb, crossing the shapes of the morning.

And you and I reach over the sun for the river.

And you and I climb, clearer, towards the movement.

And you and I called over valleys of endless seas.


MARIANNE FAITHFULL lyrics - I'm Looking For Blue Eyes



What's happened to blue eyes,

Has anyone seen him?

Don't anyone tell me

That he gave up on me.



I'm looking for blue eyes

I gotta find him,

I gotta know if,

If he's been looking for me.



There was a time blue eyes said he'd love no other,

His one and only love, he swore at me.

There was a time when his blue eyes were clearer than mine did



It isn't right, he isn't to blame, he didn't mean it this way.



What's happened to blue eyes,

Has anyone seen him?

Don't anyone tell me

That he gave up on me?



I'm looking for blue eyes

I've got to find him

I don't know if,

If he's been looking for me.



What's happened to blue eyes?

KINGDOM COME lyrics - Can't Deny



You pretend you're so cool

It's not you who's the fool

Says the voice on your shoulder



You pretend you're so calm

And you've never been harmed

But you're crying inside



[Chorus:]

Can't deny

What you find under the cover

What you need's more than a lover



You would like to believe

You could never deceive

Not yourself or another

When the going gets rough

You pretend you're so tough

But you're hurting inside



What you need is a friend

You can trust 'till the end

And you don't need no other

After all you've been through

L can see why you choose

Living life in disguise


TOM WAITS lyrics - November



No shadow

No stars

No moon

No care

November

It only believes

In a pile of dead leaves

And a moon

That's the color of bone



No prayers for November

To linger longer

Stick your spoon in the wall

We'll slaughter them all



November has tied me

To an old dead tree

Get word to April

To rescue me

November's cold chain



Made of wet boots and rain

And shiny black ravens

On chimney smoke lanes

November seems odd

You're my firing squad

November



With my hair slicked back

With carrion shellac

With the blood from a pheasant

And the bone from a hare



Tied to the branches

Of a roebuck stag

Left to wave in the timber

Like a buck shot flag



Go away you rainsnout

Go away, blow your brains out

November

CHRIS ISAAK lyrics - Except The New Girl



Drive your mustang down, to where you hang out.

Alone without a friend.

Girls walk by you, some in fact have tried you.

But once they tried they never tried again.



Except the new girl.

Except the new girl.



Alone and lonesome, trusting no one they say,

You never had a friend.

People talk about you, they say they doubt you really,

Ever let anybody in.



Except the new girl.

Except the new girl.



I guess there's never been anyone.



Except the new girl.

Except the new girl.



Last time I saw him, he was laughing.

She was standing by his side.

I've got a feeling, that they're still together.

From the look that was in his eyes. There's no one,



Except the new girl.

Except the new girl.



See him smile, he don't care.

Says he loves her, and he'll always love her.

See him smile, it seems fair.

That he finally found her, finally hold her. There's no one,



Except the new girl.

Except the new girl.

Except the new girl.


CHRIS REA lyrics - I Can Hear Your Heartbeat



In the silence of the side street

In the whisper of the night

From the darkness of the empty hours

To the early morning light

From the hustle down on main street

With all it's lights so bright

To the trucker on the highway

Pressing through the night



I can hear you heartbeat

I can hear you heartbeat

Girl, the sound of you is so sweet



I'm in a European disco

And it's thumping up the beat

There's a jukebox in a cafe

Where the younger ones can meet

We got freezing Coca-Cola

We got anything you want

I'm moving on that back beat

Girl, but it's you that sings the song



'Cos I can hear you heartbeat

I can hear you heartbeat

The sound of you is so sweet



And I'm sailing on your wind song

Oh, I can feel the summer breeze

You've got me walking on my tiptoes

You've got me standing on my knees

From the mills way down in Pittsburgh

To the clubs of gay Paris

No matter where I roam, girl,

You can always get to me



And I still hear your heartbeat

Yea I still hear your heartbeat

Girl, the sound of you is so sweet,

to me



And I still hear your heartbeat

Yea I still hear your heartbeat

Girl, the sound of you is so sweet,

to me


CELINE DION lyrics - Oxygene



Comme tous les matins

Le soleil se leve

Entre les buildings



As every morning

The sun rises up

Between the buildings

Vers sept heure et demie

J'ouvre ma fenetre

Toujours le meme homme qui fait son jogging!



Around seven and a half o'clock

I open my window

Always the same man jogging!

Je m'habille

Je me maquille

J'avale un grand cafe noir



I dress

I make up

I swallow a large black coffee

Mes lunettes

Ma malette

Accessoires obligatoires



My glasses

My briefcase

Compulsory accessories

Les miroirs

Du couloir

Multiplient ma silhouette



The mirrors

Of the corridor

Reproduce my silhouette

L'ascenceur

Me fait peur

A chaque etage, mon coeur s'arrete, , ,



The elevator

Frightens me

At every floor, my heart stops, , ,

Donnez-moi

Donnez-moi de l'oxygene

Donnez-moi de l'oxygene, , ,



Give me

Give me some oxygen

Give me some oxygen

Dans une cour d'ecole

Un enfant qui joue

Avec un ballon vert

Porte tout a coup

La main a son cou

En tombant par terre, etouffe par l'air



In a schoolyard

A kid playing

With a green ball

Suddenly put

His hand at his neck

While falling on the ground, smothered by the air

A midi

Et demi

Encore un grand cafe noir



At noon

And a half

Another large black coffee

Je ne mange

Qu'une orange

Pour tenir le coup jusqu'au soir



I only eat

An orange

To be able to hold on till the evening

4 Je m'etends

Un instant

Les jambes a la verticale



I lay down

A moment

Legs up in the air

Je respire

Et j'expire

Dans un mouvement machinal, , ,



I inhale

And exhale

In a mechanical way, , ,

Donnez-moi

Donnez-moi de l'oxygene

Donnez-moi de l'oxygene, , ,



Give me

Give me some oxygen

Give me some oxygen, , ,

Dans une ambulance

Traversant la ville

A deux cents a l'heure

On mene a l'urgence

Um homme immobile

Avec une pile a la place du coeur



In an ambulance

Crossing the city

At two hundreds per hour

We bring to the emergency

A motionless man

With a battery instead of a heart

Toute la s'maine

J'me demene

De neuf heures jusqu'a cinq heures



All the week

I struggle

From nine o'clock till five o'clock

Le trafic

Me panique

Quand je roule a la noirceur



The traffic

Panics me

When I drive at night

Le parking

Du building

A toujours la meme odeur



The parking

Of the building

Always has the same smell

En rentrant

Dans l'apartement

J'allume mon climatiseur, , ,



Entering

In the appartment

I turn on my air conditioner

Donnez-moi
