THE KINKS lyrics - Bernadette



I don't wanna leave, Bernadette,

But I don't wanna live with the jet set.

I don't wanna leave with you payin' all my debts,

With that alimony, palimony, whatever it is you get.



Ooh, Bernadette, you are so expensive.

You've never done a day's work in your life,

You've got no incentive.

You've made a career out of punting off all of the men you've slept with.

Ooh, Bernadette, you are so expensive.



I can't get a job, Bernadette,

So all that I can offer are a lot of bad debts

If you marry me, Bernadette,

You'll lose the alimony, palimony, whatever it is you get.



Ooh, Bernadette, you are so expensive.

You've never done a day's work in your life,

You've got no incentive.

You've made a career out of punting off all of the men you've slept with.

Ooh, Bernadette, you are so expensive.

Ooh, Bernadette, Bernadette.

Ooh, Bernadette, Bernadette.



[Bernadette's got a house in the country,

She's really got it made.

Her lawyers made her filthy rich,

She's got all expenses paid.]



Maybe a famous rock star will fly you away,

Then you'll eat him all up,

And spit him out,

With a dash of Perrier.



And when you've had enough

You'll throw him away,

And take him for all you can get.

Yeah, you like it don't you, Bernadette?



I don't want to leave Bernadette,

But I wanna keep a little bit of self respect.

I don't want to leave with you paying all my debts,

With that alimony, palimony, whatever it is you get.

Ooh, Bernadette, you are so expensive.

You've never done a day's work in your life.

You've got no incentive.

Women like you oughta be locked up,

For giving others a bad name.

Ohh, Bernadette, you are so expensive.

Ooh, Bernadette, Bernadette.

Ooh, Bernadette.



I think you're sad.


JOURNEY lyrics - Daydream



(Perry/Rolie/Schon/Valory)



Shining in the silver moon,

Crystal ships are sailing to the sea.

Dreams the joys of pearls and gold,

And our angel's wings in flight unfold.



[Chorus:]

Fly, fly by my window,

Flyin' so free, yeah.

Yes, they fly, fly by my window.

Yes, those bright diamonds a-once were stone,

Rollin' down a silver stream.

Yes, those bright diamonds a-once were stone.



Sail on a silver wings of fire,

Sailing dreams beyond the silver moon.

In silver clouds that fly so high,

Live the dreams you search,

But can't find.



[Chorus]


BARBRA STREISAND lyrics - A Piece Of Sky



(Yentl reveals herself to Avigdor. Though

she is a woman ahead of her time, Avigdor

is a prisoner of his. So her journey must

continue... to a place where she hears

things are different.)



Tell me where

Where is it written

What is it I meant to be?

That I can't dare...

It all began the day I found..

That from my window I could only see

A piece of sky.

I stepped outside and looked around.

I never dreamed it was so wide

Or even half as high.

The time had come

(Papa, can you hear me?)

To try my wings

(Papa, are you near me?)

And even thought it seemed at any moment I could fall,

I felt the most,

(Papa, can you see me?)

Amazing things,

(Can you understand me?)

The things you can't imagine

if you've never flown at all.

Though it's safer to stay on the ground,

Sometimes where danger lies

There the sweetest of pleasures are found.

No matter where I go,

There'll be memories that tug at my sleeve,

But there will also be

More to question, yet more to believe..

Oh tell me where?

Where is the someone who will turn and look at me?

And want to share

My ev'ry sweet-imagined possibility?

The more I live - the more I learn.

The more I learn - the more I realize

The less I know.

Each step I take -

(Papa, I've a voice now!)Each page I turn -

(Papa, I've a choice now!)Each mile I travel only means

The more I have to go.

What's wrong with wanting more?

If you can fly - then soar!

With all there is - why settle for

just a piece of sky?

Papa, I can hear you...

Papa, I can see you...

Papa, I can feel you...

Papa, watch me fly!


ALICE COOPER lyrics - Going Home



I'm going home

There I am there in my bedrrom

I'm safe and I'm snug and shoring

And so glad to be there

I'm going home

None of this ever happened

But God, I relly did it

Still nothing has changed

I'm going home

I'm going home

To my own room to all the mess

To all the dirty laundry

It looks so good I don't care

I'm just so glad to be back home

Sweet home

I wonder if anyone missed me

Or have I been gone so long

They thought that I'd died

How many said I wonder what happened to Alice

How many shrugged or laughed

How many cried

But I don't give a damn

'Cuz I'm going home

I'm going home

To my own room to all the mess

To all the dirty laundry

It looks so good I don't care

I'm just so glad to be back home

I'm going home

Nothing can stop me now


U2 lyrics - The Sweetest Thing



My love throws me like a rubber ball

Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

She won't catch me or break my fall

Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

Baby's got blue skies up ahead

But in this I'm a rain cloud

You know she likes a dry kind of love

Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing



I'm losing you

I'm losing you yeah

Ain't love the sweetest thing



I wanted to run but she made me crawl

Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

Eternal fire, she turned me to straw

Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

You know I got black eyes

But they burn so brightly for her

This is a blind kind of love

Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing



I'm losing you

Oh oh oh, I'm losing you

Ain't love the sweetest thing



Blue-eyed boy meets a brown-eyed girl

Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

You can sew it up but you still see the tear

Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

Baby's got blue skies up ahead

But in this I'm a rain cloud

Ours is a stormy kind of love

Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

ALICE COOPER lyrics - Give It Up



You got your sugar

You got your spice

You got a kitten

Now isn't that nice

You just can't wait for a picnic in Spring

I just get nauseous

When I think of those things

You wait and wait and you wait for a lifetime

For a little piece of cake in the night time yeah

You wait and wait you can't wait any longer

You wait and wait, couldn't be any wronger no

Give it up

Don't let it get you down

Give it up

you really really blew it

Give it up

Turn your head around

You shop around for a sensible car

You hold your breath when you wish on a star

You settle down in a warm little house

You make some babies with your warm little spouse

Ah, how nice

You wait and wait and you wait for a lifetime

For a little piece of cake in the night time yeah

You wait and wait you can't wait any longer

You wait and wait, couldn't be any wronger no

Give it up

Don't let it get you down

Give it up

you really really blew it

Give it up

Turn your head around

Just when you got it made

And all your bills are paid

You stumble and fall into your grave

Ah, too bad

You wait and wait and you wait for a lifetime

For a little piece of cake in the night time yeah

You wait and wait you can't wait any longer

You wait and wait, couldn't be any wronger no

Give it up

Don't let it get you down

Give it up

you really really blew it

Give it up

Turn your head around


PATTY LOVELESS lyrics - (We Are All) Children Of Abraham



We are all children of Abraham, Abraham

We are all children of Abraham

THE RAMONES lyrics - 7 And 7 Is



When I was a boy I thought about the times I'd be a man

I'd sit inside a bottle and pretend that I was in a can

In my lonely room I'd sit my mind in an ice cream cone

You can throw me if you wanna 'cause I'm a bone and I go

Oop-ip-ip oop-ip-ip, yeah!



If I don't start cryin' it's because that I have got no eyes

My father's in the fireplace and my dog lies hypnotized

Through a crack of light I was unable to find my way

Trapped inside a night but I'm a day and I go

Oop-ip-ip oop-ip-ip, yeah!



One... Two... Three... Four!


BELINDA CARLISLE lyrics - Don't Cry



Don't cry

Don't you cry

Don't be sorry

Don't cry

Don't you cry

Don't be sorry



Wide-eyed you hypnotize me

With your sadness

Let's go so I can have

Some sweet sweet gladness

Why don't you forget about him?

Drop the curtain

Why don't you try someone else?

How can you be so certain?



Don't cry

Don't you cry

Don't be sorry



He's gone

So don't deny

No, don't you worry



Your room will very soon

Be like a shrine

Open wide your windows

You can make it shine

He maybe a second choice

He's not offended

No one can believe it

When their love has ended



Don't cry

Don't you cry



Put yourself in his shoes

And you'll see he's certain

Why don't you try someone else?

How can you be so certain?



Don't cry

Don't you cry

Don't be sorry



Don't cry

Don't you cry

No, don't you worry


CAROLE KING lyrics - Midnight Flyer



The flashing neon excites my blood

Breathing in the carnival air

That old street of dreams has got my head spinning

Being there at the pleasure fair



I'm no stranger to danger

He's been my lifelong friend

I can feel the pulse of the city

Who knows how it will end



Midnight flyer, higher and higher

And the sun won't rise till five

And I don't care if I'm spending my money

At least I feel alive

Midnight flyer



Suburban village has gone to sleep

But I'm just waking up

The night holds a promise I intend to keep

To fill my loving cup



I know it's a long shot

But tonight I'm gonna take a chance

I can feel the rhythm of the city

It's my turn to dance



Midnight flyer, higher and higher

And the sun won't rise till five

I don't care if I'm spending my money

At least I feel alive



Midnight flyer, I'm on fire

Nothin's gonna stand in my way

I'm gonna keep on moving to the beat of the city

Until the break of day



Midnight flyer, I'm on fire

Midnight flyer, I'm on fire

Nothin's gonna stand in my way

Midnight flyer

OTIS RUSH lyrics - All Your Love



(Otis Rush)



All your love I miss loving, all your kiss I miss kissing

All your love I miss loving, all your kiss I miss kissing

Before I met you, baby, I didn't know what I was missing



All my love, pretty baby, I have in store for you

All my love, pretty baby, I have in store for you

Well I love you, baby, I know you love me too



Oh, oh, oh, baby, you know I love you

Yeah, yeah, yeah, baby, you know I love you baby

I love you baby, oh I love you so


EMMYLOU HARRIS lyrics - Restless



(Carl Perkins)



I don't belong to no one

I don't belong at all

Got my face in the corner

Got my back to the wall



And pretty baby I'm restless, restless

Restless through and through

I'm restless, restless

You look restless too



I'm a hair trigger lover

And I can't face up to nothing

I'm impatient with the wind

But I'm waitin' here for somethin'



And pretty baby I'm restless, restless

Restless through and through

I'm restless, restless

You look restless too



Restless sleep, twisted dreams

Moving targets, silent screams

Restless city, restless street

Restless you, restless me



I'm a face at the window

I'm a black satin sheet

And I can't stay warm

I stay out in the street



And pretty baby I'm restless, restless

Restless through and through

I'm restless, restless

You look restless too


AMERICA lyrics - Saturn Nights



One more song about movin' along the highway

Feel the fantasy in the air



(Ah -- --)



Filled the room with flowers from Norway

Sensed her majesty in the air

Made a sign 'bove your doorway, to show I care



I've been waiting every morning

Just to help you find your way

I've been standing on your corner

(Don't go away) Don't go away



One more song about movin' along the highway

Feel the fantasy in the air



I've been waiting every morning

Just to help you find your way

I've been waiting every morning

Help me make it through the day



I've been waiting every morning

Just to help you find your way

I've been waiting every morning

Help me make it through the day



I've been waiting every morning...

THE CHURCH lyrics - Drought



The earth is sucked bare by the sun

The empty clouded sky

The dazzling drone of pure heat rings alone

Seeing tears flash dry

On a sailing boat out to sea

Their mouths have all been parched

The salt meat of land drags the life from their glands

February and March



From a year without rain

From a year without rain



The weather is bare

The weather is bare

The weather is bare of flies

The house is full of dust

The taste of black trees like a tune on the breeze

Thirst that you can trust

The shadows contain no more cool

The windows all let in the heat

Dead things on the road as their insides explode

My hands are full of water and weeds


PAUL PENA lyrics - Kargyraa Moan



My wife died, went on that long black train,

Three years since then have come and gone again.

Had to find some way to sooth my soul,

That's when I found that Kargyraa Moan. And it goes



[First Chorus (No lyrics. Sounds from o to a in kargyraa style.)]



Walked on in to a little record store,

He had something from Tuva, said "I want it," don't you know,

By the time I met Chadaana's Kongar-ol,

Knew how to do that Kargyraa Moan.



Now I'm going on my way of life,

Sometimes we get in trouble, some times we have some strife.

Sometimes it seems so bad, people, feels like you're all alone,

That's when you want to moan that Kargyraa Moan.



[Repeat chorus (in kargyraa and chylandyk)]


THIN LIZZY lyrics - Look What The Wind Blew In



In the dismal darkness

I have sat and gazed, amazed

At the blazing factories



Like the lonely man

Who stands on the seashore

And I am afraid



As weary as I am

I try

I seem to see that things look ok



Run, run in your skin

Look what the wind just blew in



Many lovely ladies

I have felt, touched

And I was not afraid



I took them out dancing

Out romancing

And I was not afriad



Then somewhere from the north

This gale I knew just flew in

And I am afraid



Run, run in your skin

Look what the wind just blew in



Run, run in your skin

Look what the wind just blew in



Run, you got to run in your skin

Look what the wind just blew in



Look what the wind just blew in

You got to look what the wind just blew in

You got to look what the wind just blew in

THE CLASH lyrics - The City Of The Dead



(Strummer/Jones)



This is the city of the dead

As we lie side by side in bed

I'd do something else instead

But it is the city of the dead



We went out kickin' around

But you got drunk an' fallen down

An' I wished I could be like you

With the soho river drinking me down



In the city of the dead

Fall in love an' fall in bed

It wasn't anything you said

Except I know we both lie dead



Don't you know where to cop

That's what new york johnny said (*)

You should get to know your town

Just like I know mine



While all the windows stare ahead

An' the streets are filled with dread

Every nation in the world

Slinks through the alley after girls



What we wear is dangerous gear

It'll get you picked on anywhere

Though we get beat up we don't care

At least it livens up the air



But somedays we hide inside

All courage gone and paralysed

Sniff that wind of ugly tension

Today the jerks have got aggression



It is the city of the dead



[(*) - Johnny Thunders]


JACKSON 5 / THE JACKSONS lyrics - Play It Up



You've been sitting here thinking

Wether or not

He's gonna be with you

Give it up babe



Not meant to be this time

If he's not gonna love ya

Then don't worry 'bout losin'

His love



You'll make it up baby

Don't let it get you down

I can show you what love is all about

You're such a treat so candy sweet



With one chance I'll love away

All your doubts

Won't you be mine

Let's have a good time



Play it up

Just play it on up

Play it up

Just play it on up



Play it on up baby

Don't let it get you down

Show expression in whatever

You do



Gain possession

Keep control of your mind

Wake up baby

Don't let it get you down



Cryin' just don't make sense

Another victim of his evil game

I'll treat you right baby

Girl you should be mine



I can show you what love is all about

You're such a treat so candy sweet

With one chance I'll love away

All your doubts

Won't you be mine



Let's have a good time

Play it up

Just play it on up

Play it up

Just play it on up

Don't let it get you down


REO SPEEDWAGON lyrics - Sky Blues



I was sittin' on a plane, I was lookin' at the dreary day

I saw somebody, she was sittin' just an aisle away

She was a first class lady, and I knew that she looked refined

My heart started thumpin' louder than the engine whine

I got the sky blues-- I'm up in the air

Runnin' from a lady who just don't care

And all I wanna do is get down to earth with you

Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo, I got the sky blues

Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo, I got the sky blues



Well, I sat down beside her and I told her I was feeling blue

I said, "My girl don't want me and it's breaking my heart in two"

Well I felt so bad that I didn't even stick around. I said,

"We may be flying but heart's draggin' on the ground."

T. REX lyrics - Crimson Moon



[The beat of bondage stalks on]



Hey little girl you move so fine

All I want to do is melt your mind

Under the crimson moon

Under the crimson moon

I wanna feel your heat under the crimson moon

I wanna feel your heat under the crimson moon



You can shake your torpedoes

You can shoot your gun

You can mix your martinis

From the blood of the sun



I'm a chartreuse lover

I am an indigo man

In the black of the night

I'll hold your lily white hand

THE SUPREMES lyrics - Mother Dear



(Brian Holland/Lamont Dozier/Edward Holland, Jr.)



Something's on my mind

Mother dear the boy keeps me crying

Don't know which way to turn

Keeps me so confused

Keeps me so confused



Mother dear

'Cause for him I yearn

But he treats your daughter bad

Keeps your daughter sad



I wish I didn't love him so

'Cause now I can't let him go

His kiss gets a little sweeter

Ooh, my heart gets a little weaker



I'm falling deeper

Deeper in love each day

I know he's no good for me

But I'm too weak to break away



Ooh, each day love gets a little stronger

Ooh, heartaches lasts a little longer



Help, help me mother dear

'Cause I can't help myself

Ooh, he treats your daughter bad

Keeps your daughter sad



So many times I've tried

Telling him we're through

But when he takes me in his arms

There's nothing I can do



Ooh, it's no use

I can't break loose

I keep love him more and more each passing day

All my love to him I give it

Without him around

I couldn't live

I need him so

And he knows it

Can't let him go

And I show it



Help, help me mother dear

I'm so in love with him

But he treats your daughter bad

Keeps your daughter sad



Help, help me mother dear

Help, help me mother dear

He keeps your daughter crying


RATT lyrics - It Doesn't Matter



It doesn't matter what you do, where you go, who you see

Without me

It's blackjack, don't look back, your luck is runnin' out of hand

You're dealin' over me

Jet set, upset, make a mess that never ends

You've had enough, you see



(It doesn't matter) The clothes you wear

(It doesn't matter) If they stare

(It doesn't matter) If it's stop or go

(It doesn't matter) I don't need to know



It doesn't matter if it's Russian Roulette, it's not me

For free

You're so hot, you never stop, livin' life until you drop

It's not up to me

Out all night until the day, live your life some other way

It's still not up to me



(It doesn't matter) The clothes you wear

(It doesn't matter) If they stare

(It doesn't matter) If it's stop or go

(It doesn't matter) I don't need to know



Turnin' out the lights

For long weekend nights

Give me a reason why you're here



Again it's blackjack, don't look back, your luck is runnin' out of hand

You're dealin' over me

Jet set, upset, make a mess that never ends

You've had enough, you see



(It doesn't matter) The clothes you wear

(It doesn't matter) If they stare

(It doesn't matter) If it's stop or go

(It doesn't matter) I don't need to know



Turnin' out the lights

For long weekend nights



It doesn't matter

It doesn't matter

It doesn't matter

It doesn't matter



Turnin' out the lights

For long weekend nights



(It doesn't matter)

(It doesn't matter) If they stare

(It doesn't matter) If it's stop or go

(It doesn't matter) I don't need to know


HELLOWEEN lyrics - We Damn The Night



Blood in my pillow

Blood in my skin

Am I going mad

Or was this a dream?

There in the depth

The hollow souls wait

Voices surround me

Tempting my fate

Then out of nowhere

Figures in white

Guarding my soul in the fight



We are strong we re'alive

We have faith in his might

We believe in the everlasting light

Anytime, anywhere we will always be there

We will fight for what's just and what's right

We damn the night



Out in the blackness

Shivering cold

Doubt takes on shape

Fear the unknown

Eyes of the fallen

Piercing their glance

Whispers of doom

Left without chance

Then out of nowhere

Figures in white

Shield my soul in the fight



We're strong, we're alive

We have faith in his might

We believe in the everlasting light

Anytime, anywhere we will always be there

We will fight for what's just and what's right

We damn the night



We're strong, we're alive

We have faith in his might

We believe in the everlasting light

Anytime, anywhere we will always be there

We will fight for what's just and what's right

We damn the night

We damn the night

We damn the night


THE MONKEES lyrics - Little Girl



Little girl is smart as she can be, woe

Little girl you've made a fool of me, woe.

I believed her when she said she really loved me.

The love was shining in my eyes so coundn't see the lies

In her eyes.



Little girl knows more than she pretends

She knew I wanted to be more than friends.

Every time she hurt me oh how sorry she was,

Yesterday she went to far and now I'm through because I'm wise

To all those lies.



Friends said don't worry now she's sweet and she's kind

Don't be afraid to tell her how you feel all the time

The little things that bothered me I let them go by

And now it's too late to cry.



Little girl it's time that we should part

'Cause little girl now you've broke my heart.

I couldn't help but hear what they had said about you

Now I'm ashamed to tell them that I fell in love you.

They'd laugh at me

Please set me free.



Friends said don't worry now she's sweet and she's kind

Don't be afraid to tell her how you feel all the time.

The little things that bothered me I let them go by

And now it's too late to cry.



Little girl now I'm through with you

'Cause you've got everything you wanted too.

Despite all those things that they said you had done

You had me believin' now that I was the one

In your dreams, instead of your schemes.



Little girl, little girl.....


RICHARD THOMPSON lyrics - That's All, Amen, Close The Door



(Richard Thompson)



That's all. That's all there was.

Say Amen. Close the door.

She gave as much as she had to give

Please don't ask for more

Please don't ask for more

That's all. The curtain's down.

The lights are up. Go home.

Did I care?

Was I in love?

In love enough to know

In love enough to know



There's precious few that line that road

She welled from deep and overflowed

There's no cup to hold the past

Too rich to drink, too rich to last

That's all



Well, you wish

But don't wish for me

As if a wish

Could cheat the fall

Oh just believe

And leave it be

There's beauty in what's brief

There's beauty in what's small

That's all



There's some who dare and some who shine

And some who only drag behind

And some who reap what others sow

When memories fail well who's to know



That's all. That's all there was.

Say Amen. Close the door.

She gave as much as she had to give

Oh please don't ask for more

Please don't ask for more

That's all.

NATALIE MERCHANT lyrics - Frozen Charlotte



(Lyric and music : Natalie Merchant)



Blue like the winter snow in the full moon

Black like the silhouettes of the trees

Late blooming flowers lie frozen underneath the stars

I want you to remember me that way



Far away

I'll be gone. Will you wait for me?

How long?

I don't know. Will you wait for me?



Still, as the river grows in December

Silent and perfect blinding ice

Spring keeps her promises

No cold can keep her back

I want you to remember me that way



Far away

I'll be gone. Will you wait for me here?

How long?

I don't know but wait for me here

Follow

Don't follow me to where, where I go



Far away

I'll be gone. Will you wait for me here?

How long?

I don't know, will you wait for me here?

Follow

Don't follow me to where I've gone

Follow

Don't follow me to where I've gone



Someday you'll take my place

And I'll wait for you here


FLEETWOOD MAC lyrics - Coming Your Way



I've got things to do

I move everyday

I hope you don't mindM

'Cause I'm goin' your way



You've got things to do

You move everyday

I hope you don't mind

'Cause I'm coming your way



You've got things to do

You move everyday

I hope you don't mind

'Cause I'm coming your way



I've got things to do

I move everyday

I hope you don't mind

'Cause I'm coming your way


BRYAN FERRY lyrics - Over You



(Ferry/Manzanera)



Oh baby this is nowhere

Wish I was somewhere - over you

Your sweet lips tell me there's no chance

No more romance - over you

Oh baby how can I go on'

Crying so long - over you

Where strangers look for new love

I'm so lost in love - over you

Some day yes it might come babe

When I'll be babe - over you

And always up to that moment

I will try to say I'm - over you


JOE TEX lyrics - Hold What You've Got



You'd better hold on to what you've got

You'd better hold on to what you've got

Cause if you think nobody wants it

Just throw it away and you will see

Someone will have it before you can count 1, 2, 3

Yes they will, yes they will

Listen fellows, you know it's not all the time

That a man can have a good woman

That he can call his very own

A woman who will stay right there at home

And mind the children while he's gone to work

A woman who will have his dinner cooked

When he comes home

Where some men make mistakes is

When they go out and stay because they feel

No other wants his woman but him

Well listen, if you think no other man wants her

Just throw her away and you will see

Some men will have her before you can count 1, 2, 3

Yes he will, yes he will



Listen girls, this goes for you too

Because you know I've seen so man women

Who've had so many good men in life

Men who would stand by them thru thick and thin

Men who'd go to work everyday and

Bring home their hard earned pay

Men who'd give their woman anything

Their little hearts desired

Where some women make mistakes is

When their men go out and let em play they would stay

Because they felt that no other woman wanted him but her

Well listen, if you think no other woman wants him

Just pitch him out in the street and you will see

Some woman will have your man

Before you can count 1, 2, 3

Yes she will, yes she will

BRENDA LEE lyrics - Hello Love



(Reggie Young - Red Williams)



My life was cold and you came and warmed my soul

I need you everyday to stop my loneliness

In you I see everything that's good for me



Goodbye, misery, Hello, Love

I ain't believing this wonderful feeling

That I'm receiving when I touch your hand



And now I see what a happy thing it can be

Goodbye, misery, Hello, Love



No, I ain't believing this wonderful feeling

That I'm receiving when I touch your sweet head



Oh, now, now I see what a happy thing it can be

Goodbye, misery, Hello, Love



Hello, Love you know I'm glad to see you

Goodbye, misery, Hello, Love

To stop my loneliness

Hello, Love


AIR SUPPLY lyrics - Keeping The Love Alive



(Richard Supa)



Both of us holding back

So afraid

To fall in love and lose again

We've both been hurt before

Saw love walk out the door

In the end...



Actin' as cold as ice

When we wanna be

It's just a foolish game we play

You couldn't hurt me bad enough

To make me give it up

And walk away



[Chorus:]

We can't stop

The feeling's to strong

We've got the will to hang on

Can't stop

We struggle and fight to survive

Keepin' the love alive



We try to forget the past

So many times

It's hard to make those memories leave

With all we have at steak

We'll bend until we break

'Cause we both believe



[Chorus]



If we stand the test of time

Love will be the lasting kind



[Chorus]

MARILLION lyrics - Freaks



(Dick/Kelly/Mosley/Rothery/Trewavas)



Have you ever met a lady, screaming angst potential?

Have you ever dreamed of romance, no matter how experimental?

Have you ever felt an alien drifting back into your hometown?

Did you think you were buying safety when you bought that piece of ground?

She said all the best freaks are here

She said all the best freaks are here, please stop staring at me

So I said all the best freaks are here

All the best freaks are here, please stop staring at me



Have you ever woke up, sweating in the middle of the night?

You search the darkness and you're scrambling for the light

Have you ever walked down the street, heard bootsteps following you?

Don't worry my son, you've got the spook squad looking after you



He said all the best freaks are here

He said all the best freaks are here, please stop staring at me

So I said all the best freaks are here

All the best freaks are here, please stop staring at me

Stop staring at me



Airport terminal, patiently waiting on the last call

You feel the eyes burn the back of your head

Sign the autograph, get out of the picture, gonna have the last laugh

Feel the whispers as you head for the plane

Stop staring at me



Love and linen sheets seem so very far away

You save your pennies and you buy another day

But after all it's only hide and seek, just another game

There's so much fun to be had when you're living with a name



All the best freaks are here, all the best freaks are here

Please stop staring at me

All the best freaks are here, all the best freaks are here

Please stop staring at me

They said all the best freaks are here

All the best freaks are here, please stop staring at me

HUEY LEWIS AND THE NEWS lyrics - That's Not Me



Must have been out of my mind

Must have been a little bit crazy

I had heaven in my hands and didn't even know to do with it

Must have been seeing things

I can't believe the tears in my eyes

And now all I want to do is tell you what you mean to me



Never been one for crying

Don't waste time on jealousy

Never even thought about holding on till it happened to me, yes it happened to me



[Chorus:]

That's not me.

Don't look like me

Don't walk like me when you're out together

That's not me

Dont act the same way

Ain't got the same thing

He don't love you like I do



I must have been driving too hard

Doing ninety in a thirty-five zone

And now everything I do

Designed to get you back to me

You know, walking through stone

Breathing under water

Is easier than trying to shake a memory



Never been one for crying

Don't waste time on jealousy

Never even thought about holding on till it happened to me, yes it happened to me



[Chorus]


STEVIE WONDER lyrics - Sir Duke



Music is a world within itself

With a language we all understand

With an equal opportunity

For all to sing, dance and clap their hands

But just because a record has a groove

Don't make it in the groove

But you can tell right away at letter A

When the people start to move



They can feel it all over

They can feel it all over people

They can feel it all over

They can feel it all over people



Music knows it is and always will

Be one of the things that life just won't quit

But here are some of music's pioneers

That time will not allow us to forget

For there's Basie, Miller, Sachimo

And the king of all Sir Duke

And with a voice like Ella's ringing out

There's no way the band can lose



You can feel it all over

You can feel it all over people

You can feel it all over

You can feel it all over people



You can feel it all over

You can feel it all over people

You can feel it all over

You can feel it all over people



You can feel it all over

You can feel it all over people

You can feel it all over

You can feel it all over people



You can feel it all over

You can feel it all over people

You can feel it all over

I can feel it all over-all over now people



Can't you feel it all over

Come on let's feel it all over people

You can feel it all over

Everybody-all over people

NICK CAVE AND THE BAD SEEDS lyrics - Far From Me



For you dear, I was born

For you I was raised up

For you I've lived and for you I will die

For you I am dying now

You were my mad little lover

In a world where everybody fucks everybody else over

You who are so far from me

Far from me

So far from me

Way across some cold neurotic sea

Far from me



I would talk to you of all matter of things

With a smile you would reply

Then the sun would leave your pretty face

And you'd retreat from the front of your eyes

I keep hearing that you're doing best

I hope your heart beats happy in your infant breast

You are so far from me

Far from me

Far from me



There is no knowledge but i know it

There's nothing to learn from that vacant voice

That sails to me across the line

From the ridiculous to the sublime

It's good to hear you're doing so well

But really can't you find somebody else that you can ring and tell

Did you ever

Care for me?

Were you ever

There for me?

So far from me



You told me you'd stick by me

Through the thick and through the thin

Those were your very words

My fair-weather friend

You were my brave-hearted lover

At the first taste of trouble went running back to mother

So far from me

Far from me

Suspended in your bleak and fishless sea

Far from me

Far from me


UB40 lyrics - Wedding Day



Where were you on our wedding day

I got the bad news that you went away

Where were you little girl I say

Where were you on our wedding day



Give me back my ring

I ain't gonna let you keep a thing



Where were you when I said I do

Everybody laughing at my fine new suit

Now were where you on our wedding day



Give me back my ring.

I ain't gonna let you keep a thing



Now where were you when I searched the town

I turned the whole neighbourhood up side down

Now where were you little girl I say.

Where were you on our wedding day



Give me back my ring

I ain't gonna let you keep a thing

Give me back my ring

I ain't gonna let you keep a thing



Where were you when I said I do

Everybody laughing at my fine new suit

Now where were you little girl I say.

Where were you on our wedding day



Give me back my ring

I ain't gonna let you keep a thing



Now where were you when I searched the town

I turned the whole neighbourhood up side down

Now where were you little girl I say.

Where were you on our wedding day



Give me back my ring

I ain't gonna let you keep a thing


RICK SPRINGFIELD lyrics - Everybody's Girl



(Springfield)



Well, who'd have believed this seasoned connoisseur lady-killer

like me

Would get hurt by a girl like you?

And they got names for dirty little girls like you, honey

It ain't nice, but they call you "everybody's girl"



And they say: "Here she comes, here she comes, here she comes"

And they say: " here she comes, here she comes, here she comes

There goes everybody's girl

Everybody's girl, everybody's girl, everybody's girl"



You might say I was blind for a while

I fell asleep at the driving wheel

You sure woke me up in a hurry, honey

And I can't blame anyone but me I know

It's my fault for falling for everybody's girl



And they say: "He's the one, he's the one, he's the one"

And they say: "He's the one, he's the one, he's the one



He got screwed by everybody's girl

Everybody's girl, everybody's girl, everybody's girl



You got no apparent sensitivity

You're cut deep with self-destructivity

Your mind's made up, you're heading for the day

When you'll shake and your heart breaks

It's gonna come



Everybody's girl, everybody's girl

Everybody's girl, everybody's girl

Everybody's girl - you know the time's gonna come

Everybody's girl - you can't do this forever

Everybody's girl - you're not gonna get another chance

Everybody's girl - you're gonna get it!


FRANK SINATRA lyrics - Summer Me, Winter Me



(M. Bergman, A. Bergman, M. Legrand)



[Recorded August 20, 1979, New York]



Summer me, winter me

And with your kisses, morning me, evening me

And as the world slips far away, a star away

Forever me with love



Wonder me, wander me

Then by a fire pleasure me, peaceful me

And in the silence quietly, whisper me

Forever me with love



And ev'ry day I'll gentle you, tender you

And oh, the way I'll velvet you, clover you

I'll wrap you up and ribbon you, rainbow you

And shower you with shine!



Suddenly, magically, we found each other

There we were, here we are

I plan to let you happy me, summer me, winter me, always



[instrumental]



Then suddenly, magically, we found each other

There we were, here we are

I plan to let you happy me, summer me, winter me, always be mine

REBA MCENTIRE lyrics - Every Time You Touch Her



(Pam Rose/Pat Bunch/Mary Ann Kennedy)



Do you hold her all night long

Do you sing her our love song

Do you kiss her lips until love makes her weak, oh darlin'

Do you promise her the moon

Does she think loves coming soon

Does she know each move is made from memory, oh darlin'



Every time you touch her (Every time)

Every time you touch her think of me

When she reaches out for you, the same way my arms do



Does she know the truth your love belongs to me, oh baby

Do you wonder in the dark if she sees into your heart

Do you close your eyes so she will never see, oh baby



Every time you touch her (Every time)

Every time you touch her think of me



Nights were never made to spend alone I can wish you love, but I can't wish you gone

Do you hold her all night long

Do you sing her our love song

Do you kiss her lips until love makes her weak, oh darlin'



Every time you touch her (Every time)

Every time you touch her think of me

SIMPLE MINDS lyrics - Dance To The Music



Dance To The Music

Dance To The Music

All we need is a drummer for people who only need a beat. Yeah

I'm gonna add a little guitar and make it easy to move your feet

I'm gonna add some bottom so that the dancers will twist all night

You might like to hear my organ I said my kind of bag now.

If I could hear the horns blow sitting here on the ground listen to me

Dance To The Music

Dance To The Music


ABBA lyrics - Summer Night City



Summer night city

summer night city



Waiting for the sunrise

soul dancin' in the dark

summer night city

walkin' in the moonlight

love-makin' in a park

summer night city



In the sun I feel like sleepin'

I can't take it for too long

my impatience slowly creepin'

up my spine and growin' strong



I know what's waiting there for me

tonight I'm loose and fancy free

ah -



When the night comes with the action

I just know it's time to go

can't resist the strange attraction

from that giant dynamo

lots to take and lots to give

time to breathe and time to live



Waiting for the sunrise

soul dancin' in the dark

summer night city

walkin' in the moonlight

love-makin' in a park

summer night city



It's elusive call it glitter

somehow something turns me on

some folks only see the litter

we don't miss 'em when they're gone



I love the feeling in the air

my kind of people everywhere

ah -



When the night comes with the action

I just know it's time to go

can't resist the strange attraction

from that giant dynamo

and tomorrow when it's dawning

and the first birds start to sing

in the pale light of the morning

nothing's worth remembering

it's a dream, it's out of reach

scattered driftwood on a beach



Waiting for the sunrise

soul dancin' in the dark

summer night city

walkin' in the moonlight

love-makin' in a park

summer night city


JOHN DENVER lyrics - Like A Sad Song



Usually in the morning I'm filled with sweet belonging and everything is beautiful to see.

Even when it's raining, the sound of heaven singing is simply joyful music to me.

But sometimes I feel like a sad song, like I'm all alone without you.



So many different places, a million smiling faces, life is so incredible to me.

Especially to be near you and how it is to touch you, oh, paradise was made for you and me.

Sometimes I feel like a sad song, like I'm all alone without you.



I know that life goes on just perfectly and everything is just the way that it should be.

Still there are times when my heart feels like breaking and anywhere is where I'd rather be.

Oh, and in the nighttime, I know that it's the right time to hold you close and say I love you so.

To have someone to share with and someone I can care with

and that is why I wanted you to know.

Sometimes I feel like a sad song, like I'm all alone without you, without you.

DAVID LEE ROTH lyrics - Lose The Dress (Keep The Shoes)



I respect your intellect

More impressive still

Are you sporting skills

Do i detect

Integrity and self-respect?

Cool



Now lose the dress, keep the shoes

So what you're saying could be true



All the world's a molecule

A little atom contained within

The thumbprint of a greater being

I wish i may i wish i might

And with any luck

I will tonight

But before we do



Come here you

Lose the dress, keep the shoes

Lose the dress, keep the shoes

Lose the dress


SIMPLE MINDS lyrics - When Two Worlds Collide



Shots ring out in Paris, the bells ring out in Rome

Your photo's in the paper, buy you're getting old

Footsteps in the carpark he's the governor of the night

The omens say crime don't pay but each dog has its price

When two worlds collide

The tears well inside

When two worlds collide



A boy is found in Naples, his body's in a ditch

His young life counts for nothing when somebody's getting rich

There's flowers on the table, he sips water she drinks wine

And I don't think that mercy is the language of our time



When two worlds collide

The teardrops inside

When two worlds collide

You break me up inside



Backstreet of Chicago a black man plays the gold

There's a man on every corner says he'd like to buy your soul

Bhuddists in the temple, bullets in the night

Steeping out of their world, into your world, into mine

In the jet black night



The tears well inside

When two worlds collide

You break me up inside

Two worlds collide


GLENN HUGHES lyrics - It's About Time



They say that nothin's better

To Feel you in my arms

You know I'm out to get ya

So why won't you come back to me baby

And it's about time



I need you baby, I need you so

I love you baby, don't you know

Come to me woman, every night

You know what baby, you're clean outta sight

You're clean outta sight

Oh you're clean outta sight



You left this home with heartache

You really should have known

It's only for your own sake

So why can't you come back to me baby



I need you baby, I need you so

I love you baby, don't you know

Come to me woman, every night

You know what baby, you're clean outta sight

You're clean outta sight

Oh you're clean outta sight


NEIL DIAMOND lyrics - Win The World



I never noticed when you changed your hair

Just another of those moments

I was only half there



When you wore that red dress

That was cut up to here

I never noticed

You were wearing a tear



I was always tryin' to win the world

What on earth was I thinking of?

One time too often

I didn't hold you enough



I was always tryin' to win the world

But somewhere I lost you

I never saw you

Only tryin' to win my love



It should have been me there

For all of those times

It would have been me there

If I knew the signs

When you wore that red dress

How could I know then

You'd wear it for me once

And never wear it again?



I was always tryin' to win the world

What on earth was I thinking of?

One time too often

I didn't hold you enough



I was always tryin' to win the world

But somewhere I lost you

'Cause I never saw you

Only tryin' to win my love



Somewhere I lost you

'Cause I never saw you

Only tryin' to win my love


BEACH BOYS lyrics - Darlin'



(Brian Wilson/Mike Love)



Ohh darlin'

My darlin' you're so fine

Ohhhh-hhh-hhh



Don't know if words can say

But darlin' I'll find a way

To let you know what you meant to me

Guess it was meant to be

I hold you in my heart

As life's most precious part



Oh darlin'

I dream about you often my pretty darlin'

(Darlin' you're so fine)

I love the way you soften my life with your love

Your precious love uh huh oh



I was living like half a man

Then I couldn't love but now I can

You pick me up when I'm feeling sad

More soul than I ever had

Gonna love you every single night

Cause I think you're too outta sight



Oh darlin'

I dream you often my pretty darlin'

(Darlin' you're so fine)

I love the way soften my life with your love

Your precious love uh huh huh



Woah oh oh oh



Every night darlin'

Gonna love you every single night, yes I will

Cause I think you're too doggone outta sight



Oh darlin'

I dream you often my pretty darlin'

(Darlin' you're so fine)

I love the way soften my life with your love

Your precious love uh huh huh

Oh

Funny how it never felt so good

J. J. CALE lyrics - Anyway The Wind Blows



(J. J. Cale)



Some like this and some like that

And some don't know where it's at

If you don't get loose, if you don't groove

Well, your motor won't make it and your motor won't move

If time don't tell you then don't ask me

I'm riding on a hurricane down to the sea

If you can't hear the music, turn it up loud

There's movement in the air and movement in the crowd

Bow-legged woman doing the boogaloo

She got a jive, she got a move

Turn around, do it again

Bow-legged woman, where you been

Fat Jack owns a honky-tonk downtown

You can catch a woman if you hang around

You can tear down the door, tear down the wall

Fat Jack he don't care at all

Easy come, easy go

Anyway the wind blows

Hey, drummer, drummer, can you give me that beat

Can you give me that beat, got to move my feet

Guitar player been all around the world

But he can't play a lick for looking at the girls

One two three four five six seven

Well, you'd better change your ways or you won't get to heaven

Eight nine ten, gonna stop at eleven

Eleven just lays around with seven

Some like this and some like that

And some don't know where it's at

If you don't get loose, if you don't groove

Well, your motor won't make it and your motor won't move

Easy come, easy go

Anyway the wind blows

RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS lyrics - I've Been Down



I tumble into space, try to stop the fall

My body ripped and tore, I could have floated in space



Could have floated



I stumble 'round my home

I am on the outside My legs and arms are lead, feeling love from no one

Could have floated My head weighs ninety-pounds and I've been down

My friends are aliens and I've been down

Well now I've got no wife Cut a lizard's tail, it grows back to life

I killed some sleepless nights, my heart's torn to pieces

Could have floated I am the funny guy, yeah I've been down

I am the big rock star yeah I've been down

I'll never be the same, cause I've been inside out

And I want to be an animal and take care of my own

My head weighs ninety pounds and I've been down

My friends are aliens and I've been down

I know what it's like cause I've been down Devil sneaks in and deals and I've been down


JAMES TAYLOR lyrics - T-Bone



Me and T-Bone on the road to town, it's like I'm walking with a talking machine.

Just as soon as he thinks of something else, he won't wait to interrupt himself.

Must be something that he can't quite say, he just doesn't want to leave it that way.

Although he may not know it yet, unless I miss my bet,

he's just trying to forget what his heart remembers.



I see that T-Bone got an automobile, low-loping and open to the sky.

All night behind the hurricane wheel, riding in the eye.

All day underneath the hood, Mondo Bondo, plastic, wood.

He needs a mile of masking tape if he wants to keep his ship in shape,

someday to escape what his heart remembers, yes, what his heart remembers.



T-Bone's not alone, not alone, looks like he gets a second chance.

It's Mamarama and Lumalamalu want to take him to recovery dance.

He's looking like he gets his meat suit back, I guess he must have missed the crack attack.

Still he's riding for a fall 'cause it's written upon the wall,

that now he must recall what his heart remembers, what his heart remembers.

CHRIS REA lyrics - Mississippi



Nashville sky, in the morning sun

Somewhere up north, a new life begun

He was drawn to the twister, with a Memphis sound

Kissed by an Angel, of a music town.



Jump a train from Chicago, trace it back

With the neck of a bottle, and the groove of the tracks

Spend your life running, that Angels sweet sound

Chasing the ghosts, of a faraway town.



Oh Mississippi, running through my veins

Oh Mississippi, never the same again.

(Paul Hardy Kennerley)



I cried so hard

You know I can't do more

It's a turn of the card

It's a close of the door

The lies you told

You know they hurt so deep

So I go home and cry myself to sleep



Day after day

You been treatin' me bad

My friends'll come up and say

Why do you take all of that?

And it's makin' me moan

And it's makin' me weep

So I go home and cry myself to sleep



You play at love like a child plays games

One day I'm in and then I'm out again

You change the rules

I can't win

You've broken me, now, so I'll give in



You play at love like a child plays games

One day I'm in and then I'm out again

You change the rules

I can't win

You've broken me, now, so I'll give in



Well, I've been through worse

But I don't know what

Joy is just the reverse

Of what I've got

So take this heart

Or what's left to keep

And I go home and cry myself to sleep

I just go home and cry myself to sleep

I go home and cry myself to sleep

UFO lyrics - Too Hot To Handle



Caught in the crossfire, warnin' fight

Legends make or break game

Swept up by the rolling waves of the night

The paper chase for fame



I was too, too hot, baby

Too hot to handle

Yeah, I was too, too hot

Too hot to handle



Wink of an eye, the feelings ran high

A real rock and roll molest

But I ain't no romance

And I ain't no slow chance

Won't get no quick change



(1)And I'm too, too hot, baby

Too hot to handle

Yeah, I'm too, too hot, baby

Too hot to handle



(2)Sha la la la, roll you over

Turn you around and do it again

Sha la la la, keep on coming

Do it once but never the same



[INSTRUMENTAL]



(2)Repeat



I'm in your town, won't fool around

I'll make some action stick

Just like the story says, these boys are bad

So keep out of shootin' range



(1) Repeat

(1) Repeat (ad lib)


WHITNEY HOUSTON lyrics - So Emotional



I've been hearing your heartbeat inside of me

I keepp your photo right beside my bed

Livin' in a world of fanticies

I can't get you out of my head



I've been waiting for the phone to ring all night

Why you wanna make me feel so good

I got a love of my own

Shouldn't get so hung up on you



[Chorus]



I remember the way that we touched I wish I didn't like it so much

I get so emotional, baby

Every time I think of you

I get so emotional, baby



Ain't it shocking what love can do

Ain't it shocking what love can do



I gotta watch you walk in the room, baby

I gotta watch you walk out

I like the animal way you move

And when you talk I just watch your mouth



[chorus]


KENNY LOGGINS lyrics - Cody's Song



When you feel afraid,

When you lose your way, I'll find you,

Just try to smile, and dry your eyes,

I will bring back the moon into your skies.

And ever you will, remember darling, I'll be there to:



Say to you

I'll promise you

I'll promise to

Comfort you and say to you

Darling, I'll be there just for you.



There's so much to learn,

And when you want me

Then I'll show you,

And through the years,

You'll always be

The lullaby in the heart of the child in me.



Whenever you will, remember darling

I'll be there to



Say to you

I'll promise you

I'll promise to

Comfort you and say to you

Darling, I'll be there just for you.



Hold it, feel it,

Music is in your heart.

When you need it,

Just keep listening,

Let it sing, let it sing.



Though you've grown away

No matter how you'll change

I'll know you.

And when you tire of life alone,

There will always be one sure way back home



Just turn on the quiet,

And you close your eyes

And listen inside

(unconditional)

(unconditional)

(unconditional)



I'll be there to sing to you,

I promise you

I promise to

Comfort you

And sing to you.



And darling, I'll be there,

Anytime, and anywhere,

Cody I'll be there just for you.


IGGY POP lyrics - Nazi Girlfriend



I want to fuck her on the floor

Among my books of ancient lore

So I will make a full report

I got a Nazi Girlfriend



It's not the four-inch heels she wears

It's not her baby-fine blond hair

It's more the desert in her stare

I've got a Nazi Girlfriend



She's not the colt

That she once was

She's elegant

But youth is lost

Still she has ways to make me talk

I love you Nazi Girl



Her French is perfect

So's her butt

She wears two crosses

Tangled up

She's independent

She's not dumb

Tough little Nazi Girl



So now I've fucked her on the floor

Among my books of ancient lore

And I have made a full report

About a Nazi Girl


AMERICA lyrics - Wind Wave



Sometimes when I'm down on my luck, feelin' dizzy

My mind reels back to those days in the city

When early in the morning take a trip, it's so pretty

I could never understand why it wasn't so grand



I got a hankerin' for a wind wave

I got it through and through

I got a hankerin' for somethin' home made

It's got to be brand new



Early in the morning when the sun comes up

I'm gonna grab a fishin' pole and a sleepin' bag roll

Head out for the land of the dumb but the pretty

I won't stay long but you never know



I got a hankerin' for a wind wave

I got it through and through

I got a hankerin' for somethin' home made

It's got to be brand new



I got a hankerin' for a wind wave

I got it through and through

I got a hankerin' for somethin' home made

It's got to be brand new



Sometimes when I'm down on my luck, feelin' dizzy

My mind reels back to those days in the city

Sometimes when I'm down on my luck, feelin' dizzy

My mind reels back to those days in the city

Sometimes when I'm down on my luck, feelin' dizzy

My mind reels back to those days in the city...

JOHN HIATT lyrics - The Walking Dead



It's that mechanical motion

Skin-tight when the nights are bloodless

Lip-sync the latest notion

From zombie drill instructors



Throw out of all the parties

Maybe it's time for me to bed

Now his eyeball's runnin'

Just like a razor down her leg



[Chorus:]

Baby's joined the walking dead

Up from her grave

Another white slave

Nothin' goes in or out of her head

Never you mind

Tryin' to find

A real live girl in your bed

She's joined the walking dead



She likes this frenzy feeding

She cuts across the dance floor

Thinks she's the only one bleeding

He cuts his teeth on girls like her



Just a little more makeup

'Til she makes up for being used

He hardly knows what he's saying

She hardly knows how to refuse



[Chorus]



She's walking



With his eyes in your head

With his tongue in your bed

And your lips are swollen red

From the kiss of the walking dead



[Chorus]


WHITESNAKE lyrics - You're Gonna Break My Heart Again



(David Coverdale & John Sykes)



Now I know

I've seen that look

On your face before

When you realised

All the memories

Walked right out the door...



Now it's eye for an eye

A tooth for a tooth

No more hiding behind the truth

I'm gonna get exactly

What's coming to me



You're gonna break my heart again,

You never let me forget it

You're gonna break my heart again

But, you're gonna live to regret it



Now you say

I took advantage of you

When you never knew the score

But, you should know

We've been this way

One thousand times before



You told me once,

You told me twice

It's down to me, girl

To pay the price

But, this time's the last time

That's for sure...



You're gonna break my heart again,

You never let me forget it

You're gonna break my heart again

But, you're gonna live to regret it

Yes you are



You talk of how our love

Was meant to be

And all the time

You sacrificed for me...



So how could I forget it,

Why should I regret it

'Cos when you told me you loved me

I knew it was lies

So no more crying, no more goodbyes,

'Cos this time's the last time

That's for sure...break my heart...



Now you say

There is no one in the world

Can get the better of you

An' you should know

'Cos you never made it easy

With the pain you put me thru



I told you once

I told you twice

It's down to you, girl

To pay the price

'Cos this time's the last time

That's for sure...



You're gonna break my heart again,

You never let me forget it

You're gonna break my heart again

But, you're gonna live to regret it



I just can't take anymore,

No more, no more, no more...


ALISON KRAUSS lyrics - Will You Be Leaving



You may walk away in anger

Wear your heart upon your sleeve

You make act like it don't matter

Keep me laughing while you leave

But burning bridges won't get me back

If you change your mind some day

Why can't we turn this scene around

Before you walk away?



Will you be leaving, leaving me today?

Like the ocean leaves us waiting on the sand

Crumbling in our hand

I can't live this scene again



You may turn away in silence

While the tears run down your face

Say there's nothing left to bind us

Leaving love without a trace

But if I loved you well

You'd soon find out why your new love falls some day

Why can't we burn this heartache down

before you walk away?



Will you be leaving, leaving me today?

Like the ocean leaves us waiting on the sand

Crumbling in our hand

I can't live this scene again



Will you be leaving, leaving me today?

Like the ocean leaves us waiting on the sand

Crumbling in our hand

I can't live this scene again


IRVING BERLIN lyrics - It Isn't What He Said, But The Way He Said It!



[1st verse:]

Happy, I'm so happy

I could throw myself away

Some peculiar something

Keeps my heart a-jumping

Both night and day

Say!

Stupid Mister Cupid

Went and pierced me thro' the heart

I've been fascinated

Simply captivated

Captured from the start



[Refrain:]

It isn't what he said

But the way he said it

Made me fall

He spoke of wedding bells

Until it seem'd the knot was tied

He described an automobile

And it was just as good as taking a ride

The way he spoke of love

Set my heart a-bouncing like a ball

He told me of a kiss last week

So natural, I could feel it on my cheek

It isn't what he said

But after he said it

I had to love him, that's all



[2nd verse:]

Clever, he's so clever

You could never understand

Ev'ry word they carry

In the dictionary

Is at his command

And!

Peaches are his speeches

They're the finest in the land

He'll describe a jewel

In a way that you will

Feel it on your hand


EMMYLOU HARRIS lyrics - Luxury Liner



(Gram Parsons)



Luxury liner, forty tons of steel

If I don't find my baby now

I guess I never will

I've been a long lost soul

For a long, long time

I've been around

Everybody ought to know what's on my mind

You think I'm lonesome, so do I

So do I



Well, I'm the kind of girl

Who likes to make a livin' runnin 'round

And I don't need a stranger

To let me know my baby's let me down

You think I'm lonesome, so do I

So do I



Luxury liner, forty tons of steel

No one in this whole wide world

Can change the way I feel

I've been a long lost soul

For a long long time

I've been around

Everybody ought to know what's on my mind

You think I'm lonesome, so do I

So do I

PAUL MCCARTNEY & WINGS lyrics - Let Me Roll It



You gave me something, i understand,

You gave me loving in the palm of my hand

I can't tell you how i feel

My heart is like a wheel

Let me roll it

Let me roll it to you

Let me roll it

Let me toll it to you



I want to tell you

And now's the time

I want to tell you that

You're going to be mine



I can't tell you how i feel

My heart is like a wheel.

Let me roll it

Let me roll it to you

Let me roll it

Let me roll it to you


STEVIE WONDER lyrics - Sylvia



Whoa, oh, oh, yeah

Mmm, hmm Sylvia

You know you're getting to me now

Mmm, mmm, mmm, Sylvia

You gently touched my heart somehow



Yesterday you made me happy as a child at play

Just like the summer sun that warms my heart

And move on, now you are gone



Whoa, oh, oh, Sylvia

You're everything that I adore

That sweet song, that caught a spark in me more

Tenderly that's how you whisper that you loved me

As if a raindrop kissed my ear and disappeared, now you are gone



Oh, oh, oh, yeah

You know I love my little Sylvia



Whoa, oh, oh, yeah

And yesterday I feel in love with you all the way

Tenderly you lit a spark in my heart, now you are gone



Mmm, hmm, Sylvia

I gently miss Sylvia

I'm crazy 'bout ya, Sylvia

You know I love my little Sylvia


BABYFACE lyrics - Give U My Heart



Your love's so exciting

Boy I can't deny it

Since you found a place in my heart

Givin' me a feeling

Ooh it's such a feeling

I pray that we never will part

How can I explain it

Please hear what I'm sayin'

You bring so much so much joy to my life

Words cannot express

So much happiness

I'll forever be by your side



And I will give you my heart

And I will always be true to you

And I will love you forever



If I could just make love to you

Make love to you

Girl I must confess it

You've been such a blessing

Never felt so good in my life

You know how to take it

I know how to give it

We both always have a good time

I hear what you're sayin'

Lord knows you ain't playin'

Ain't no doubt that I'm satisfied

And I'll keep it comin'

Keep bringin' the lovin'

So baby bring your lovin'

Every morning, noon, and night



[HOOK (2 times)]



Oh give me just a minute and

I'll jump right on in it

We can make love under the stars

All year pleasure pleasure

I'll be yours forever

Girl, I'll never leave now

I'll be there to please you

We won't have to worry at all



[HOOK (3 times)]



I will go all the way down

I'll make it feel so good

I wanna do you right

If I could just make love to you



[HOOK (2 times)]


FRANK ZAPPA lyrics - Super Grease

Howard: And a wine tasted like. . .

STEPHEN STILLS lyrics - Rollin' My Stone



Can you see them runnin' their games on my mind

See the wasted energy flyin' by

Whispering shadows standin' somewhere close by

Don't mean nothin' to me, I can't see your eyes



Somebody rollin' my stone

How could you leave me alone

Oh darlin', you're on your own

Nobody rollin' my stone

On down the road



And I know I've done the same sort of thing

Hidin' inside myself, can't find my way out again

And the world can get so twisted from Mary Jane

Lookin' back it seems so ridiculously insane



Somebody rollin' my stone

How could you leave me alone

Oh darlin', you're on your own

Nobody rollin' my stone

On down the road



Somebody rollin' my stone

How could you leave me alone

Oh darlin', you're on your own

Nobody rollin' my stone

On down the road



So then what have I got to say to you

Nobody's tryin' to tell you what to do

Then they know when you think of something new

Why are you sailin' with that fair weather crew



Somebody rollin' my stone

How could you leave me alone

Oh darlin', you're on your own

Nobody rollin' my stone


ROXETTE lyrics - Pay The Price



I try to keep your name

And still get rid of your face

I hate to be by myself

All locked away in this place

You turn me inside out

You turn me outside in

Around and upside down

A rollercoaster within



Pay the price of love

When he calls for you

You've got to

Pay the price of love

When he calls for you



I grab my big black book

And call the numbers I know

Something is melting this town

Like it was all made of snow

You turn me inside out

You turn me outside in

Around and up and down

The elevator within



Pay the price of love (ooh la la la)

When he calls for you

You've got to

Pay the price of love (ooh la la la)

When he calls for you



Spending the evening alone

With the 10 o'clock news

Looking at you through the holes

In the soles of my old brown shoes


SLAYER lyrics - Hardening Of The Arteries



(Lyrics Hanneman; Music Hanneman])



Fear runs wild in the veins of the world

The hate turns the skies jet black

Death is assured in future plans

Why live if there's nothing there



Spectors of doom await the moment

The mallet is sure and precise

Cover the crypts of all mankind

With cloven hoove begone



[Chorus:]

Sadistic minds

Delay the death

Of twisted life

Malicious world



The crippled youth try in dismay

To sabotage the carcass Earth

All new life must perish below

Existence now is futile



Decrepit breath, vile in its stench

A world in decay

Transgressor is as one



[Chorus]



[Lead - King, Hanneman]



Convulsions take the world in hand

Paralysis destroys

Nobody's out there to save us

Brutal seizure now we die

THE DOORS lyrics - Take It As It Comes



Time to live

Time to lie

Time to laugh

Time to die



Takes it easy, baby

Take it as it comes

Don't move too fast

And you want your love to last

Oh, you've been movin' much too fast



Time to walk

Time to run

Time to aim your arrows

At the sun



Takes it easy, baby

Take it as it comes

Don't move too fast

And you want your love to last

Oh, you've been movin' much too fast



Go real slow

You like it more and more

Take it as it comes

Specialize in havin' fun



Takes it easy, baby

Take it as it comes

Don't move too fast

And you want your love to last

Oh, you've been movin' much too fast

Movin' much too fast

Movin' much too fast

THE RAMONES lyrics - Why Is It Always This Way?



Hey hey hey

Why is it always this way?



Last time I saw her alive

She was wavin', wavin' bye bye

She was contemplating suicide

Now she's lying

In a bottle of formaldehyde

And oh, I just don't know

Why I can't let her go

Oh I just don't know



Hey hey hey

Why is it always this way?



Last time I saw her alive

She was going to the wash and dry

She was outside hitchin' a ride

Now she's lying

In a bottle of formaldehyde


BEE GEES lyrics - Cucumber Castle



There were the trees, see the grass, a thing gets inspired.

Said "This is the place I will try," and he did.

Stood in the dark, sat a man who beckoned him in,

But leaving his grass was a sin, but he did.



Cucumber Castle be ever so humble it's home.

He saw the light in the cellar reflect in his eyes,

Yet early that morning was he to receive a surprise.

Cucumber Castle be ever so humble it's home.

Cucumber Castle be ever so humble it's home.



Said 'Are you leaving or are you receiving my friend,

Doest need any money till then" and he did.

He said "I'm the owner, not you, and this is my stead,

So give it to me now I'm dead, and he did, said:



Cucumber Castle be ever so humble it's home.

Cucumber Castle be ever so humble it's home.


WOODY GUTHRIE lyrics - Danville Girl



I went down to the railroad yard, Watch the train come by

Knew that train would roll that day But I did not know what time.



I did not know what time, boys, did not know what time,

Knew the train would roll that day but I did not know what time.

Good morning, Mister railroad man, what time does your train roll by?



Nine sixteen and two forty four, twenty five minutes 'til five.

At nine sixteen, two forty four, twenty five minutes 'til five.

Thank you, Mister railroad man, I wanna watch your train roll by.



Standing on the platform, smoking a big cigar,

Waitin' for some old freight train that carries an empty car.



I rode her down to Danville town, got stuck on a Danville girl,

Bet your life she was a pearl, she wore that Danville curl.



She wore her hat on the back of her head like high tone people all do,

Very next train come down that track, I bid that gal adieu.



I bid that gal adieu, poor boys, I bid that gal adieu,

The very next train come down that track, I bid that gal adieu.

SKID ROW lyrics - Livin' On A Chain Gang



(Bolan, Snake)



Turn on the TV, 'cause I got nowhere

To go

Seems that there's a little trouble down

In Mexico

A 13-year-old boy robs a store

So he can eat

And they got him doing time while

Killers walk the streets



A hungry politician is the wolf that's

At the door

Hell-bent on submission and feedin'

On the poor

We could stare into the sun if we would

Open up our eyes

But we paint ourselves into a corner

Colored in white lies



Busted on a rockpile - getting

Dusted in the heat

Shackled to the system - and

Draggin' my feet



I'm riding on a breakdown - another

Whiteknuckled shakedown

Feels like I'm livin' on a chain gang

I'm riding on a breakdown - a suicidal

Shakedown

Feels like I'm on a chain gang



A con man's intuition can wash

Your sins away

Send your contribution and he'll save

Your soul today

What can he know, has he been

Through hell and back

He takes the cash and drives it home in

A brand new Cadillac



Spitting at the guard dog, burning

In his wicked deal

Screamin' down the railroad with

No one at the wheel



I'm riding on a breakdown - another

Whiteknuckled shakedown

Feels like I'm livin' on a chain gang

I'm riding on a breakdown - a suicidal

Shakedown

Feels like I'm on a chain gang



Faith healin', superstition

Cold-blooded criminal mind

Getting off on high position

Hey brother can you spare a dime

To get me off this slaughter line



I'm riding on a breakdown - another

Whiteknuckled shakedown

Feels like I'm livin' on a chain gang

I'm riding on a breakdown - a suicidal

Shakedown

Feels like I'm on a chain gang



I'm riding on a breakdown - another

Whiteknuckled shakedown

Feels like I'm livin' on a chain gang

I'm riding on a breakdown - a suicidal

Shakedown

Feels like I'm on a chain gang


DEPECHE MODE lyrics - In Your Memory



Put up the barriers

Shut down your senses

Cover up with all of your pretences

See no evil

Your eyes are blunted

We are the hunters

We are the hunted



Place it in your memory

Leave it in your past

But don't forget



Taking a tumble

I'm taking a dive

Sometimes I stumble when my mind's made up

Reaction levels

Seem strangely muted

Ordinary acts of fun have been diluted



Place it in your memory

Leave it in your past

But don't forget

NEIL DIAMOND lyrics - We Got Love



(Yes we got love

Yes we got love)

Take a boy like me and a girl like you

Nothing in this world that we can't do

'Cause we got love



Let them say the things

That they want to say

Long as I have you everything's OK

'Cause we got love

Yes we got love

Baby we got love



Why would the try to keep us apart

Can't they see

Tho' we are young

What we feel in our hearts

Will always be

Baby we got love



That's the way that we feel

And some day they'll find

That it's really real

'Cause we got love

Yes we got love

Yes we got love
