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

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

Say baby you been lookin' real good

Funny how it never felt so good
It's a feelin' that I know
I know I'll never forget
Ooh it was the best time

Ooh it was the best time

Ooh and the love we shared-

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
