PAULA ABDUL lyrics - Cold-Hearted
How come how come he can he can tell-a tell-a you're-a you're-a
Always always number number one without a doubt
(He's one cold snake)
When-a when-a he is he is always always squirmin' squirmin'
Like a little snake under-a e-ver-y-a rock
(No give, all take)
You've been you've been workin' workin' on the on the love
And he's been only only playing undercover all the while
(One smooth sharp tongue)
Take a take another 'nother look into his eyes
(He just talks)
And you will on-ly see a rep-tile
He's a cold-hearted snake
Look into his eyes
Oh oh oh
He's been tellin' lies
He's a lover boy at play
He don't play by the rules
Oh oh oh
Girl don't play the fool--no
You're the one givin' up the love
Anytime he needs it
But you turn your back and then he's off and runnin' with the crowd
You're the one to sacrifice
Anything to please him
Do you really think he thinks about you when he's out
He's a cold-hearted snake
Look into his eyes
Oh oh oh
He's been tellin' lies
He's a lover boy at play
He don't play by rules
Oh oh oh
Girl don't play the fool--no
It was only late last night
He was out there sneakin'
Then he called you up to check that you were waiting by the phone
All the world's a candy store
He's been trick or treatin'
When it comes to true love girl with him there's no one home
He's a cold-hearted snake
Look into his eyes
Oh oh oh
He's been tellin' lies
He's a lover boy at play
He don't play by rules
Oh oh oh
Girl don't play the fool--no
You could find somebody better girl
He could only make you cry
You deserve somebody better girl
He's c-cold as ice
He's a cold-hearted snake
Look into his eyes
Oh oh oh
He's been tellin' lies
He's a lover boy at play
He don't play by rules
Oh oh oh --Girl don't play the fool--no
He's a cold-hearted snake
Look into his eyes
Oh oh oh
He's been tellin' lies
He's a lover boy at play
He don't play by rules
Oh oh oh
Girl don't play the fool--[Repeat To Fade]
PRINCE lyrics - Delirious
I get delirious whenever you're near
Lose all self-control, baby just can't steer

We can win the race
We can win the race
We have a dream, you win tonight
Take a chance, take a chance, God is on you side
We pray for you, you like a hurricane

Take the chance, take the chance, you'll win tonight
You know you are the best, you can beat the rest
We never let you down,
You have the energy, we want the victory
The hero's back in town

DIANA ROSS lyrics - Give Up
(Bernard Edwards/Nile Rodgers)
Give up, give up
Give up you're love to me
Give up, give up
Give up you're love to me
You better listen well
When I tell you
To be on the look out
You can't call for help
'Cause I know you inside out
Despite all your hideouts
I'm no great pretender
I'll make you surrender
So come along quietly
Here's a thought to remember
I have not met a man yet
To escape from my drag-net
Give up, give up
Give up you're love to me
Give up, give up
Give up you're love to me
Give up, give up
Give up you're love to me
I'll give you just the facts man
And you can draw all your own conclusions
I'll keep your mind surrounded
With chains of love so strong
You can't break through them
My arsenal is stocked
With all kinds of seductive weapons
Although your heart's locked up
My love will assist me
So that you can't resist me
Give up, give up
Give up you're love to me
Give up, give up
Give up you're love to me
Give up, give up
Give up you're love to me
Give up, give up
Give up you're love to me
Give up, give up
Give up you're love to me
Give up, give up
Give up you're love to me
No, no, no
Give up, give up
Give up you're love to me
Give up, give up
Give up you're love to me
Give up, give up
Give up you're love to me
Give up, give up
Give up you're love to me
Give up, give up
Give up you're love to me
Give up, give up
Give up you're love to me
Give up, give up
Give up you're love to me
Give up, give up
Give up you're love to me
PETER, PAUL AND MARY lyrics - Danny's Downs
(Michael Blanchard)
On the day little Danny arrived
His father stared and his mother cried
They knew his name but they didn't know why
He looked the way he did
This thing happens to other kids
How in the world are we gonna live
With a boy like that?
Doctor said,"Dan's the first bad news
Second is his heart won't make it through
It must be fixed unless you choose
To send him back where he came
Starve the boy from his name
Just six short days of pain
Or maybe less"
[Chorus:]
Danny's Downs but Love is up
It's been known to be more than enough
For more and more of us
Danny's downs but Love is up
"I'm not that strong," his father said
"The dreams are gone, the hopes have fled
Won't be long after he's dead
We'll try again to find
The child we had in mind
Where the hell are those papers to sign?"
And the man broke down
In a private room Danny's mother wept
As an old Jamaican woman swept
And not by chance their eyes met
(And she said)
"God's gifts are only good y'know
And there ain't no Love the Lord can't grow
Aw honey, take that boy with ya when ya go
Back home
[Chorus]
It's been eight years since the surgery
His sister's 5, his brother's 3
He goes to school and he knows how to read
He takes the bus home by himself
Puts his lunch pail back upon the shelf
And he hugs his Momma till she melts
To the floor
They're more than a home, they're a family
'Cause blood and bones are still souls y'see
And someone's baby's just another Danny
And in the guest room in the back
Lives this old Jamaican black
'Cause when you give a gift
God gives it back again.
[Chorus]
CHICAGO lyrics - If She Would Have Been Faithful
I was thinking about her
Visiting the past
Reconstructing details with old photographs
Studying the faces
With an objective point of view
Suddenly remembering doesn't haunt me
At the time you couldn't tell me
That one day I'd be glad
That something that I thought was love was misinterpreted
She had another lover - she emphatically denied
But they were doin' me a favor
A blessing in disguise
[Chorus:]
If she would have been faithful
If she could have been true
Then I would've been cheated
I would never know real love
I would've missed out on you
I watch you sleeping - your body touchin' me
There's no doubt about it
This is where I want to be
It's so ironic - I had to lose to win
I want to thank her (Thank her again)
[Chorus]
Bridge:
It's a paradox - full of contradiction
How I got from there to here
It defies a
Logical explanation
[Chorus]
THE KINKS lyrics - Artificial Light
Slow dancing in a disco,
Standing underneath the light show,
Illuminated by the artificial light.
I disbelieved it at first sight,
I couldn't tell if she was black or white,
It didn't matter in the artificial light,
Artificial light.
Artificial light.
Artificial light.
Artificial light.
First time I saw her she was easy to know,
She had nothing to hide, she put it all out to show.
She didn't cover up or try to conceal,
I knew the way that she felt 'cause her expression was real.
She didn't cover up the inside,
She showed it all on the outside,
Stark naked in the artificial light.
Everybody gotta learn to relax,
To be yourself you have to put on an act.
Get together in the artificial light.
And if I saw her in the light of day,
I wouldn't know what to say, I wouldn't know what had happened.
I only wanna know a world below,
Where we can be ourselves beneath an artificial glow.
And if you're scared what your friend'll say,
And you're embarrassed by the light of day,
Get together in the artificial light.
Everybody let yourself go,
Everybody to a floor show,
Get together in the artificial light.
Artificial light,
Artificial light,
Artificial light,
Artificial light.
THE GO-GO'S lyrics - Skidmarks On My Heart
(C. Caffey/B. Carlisle)
You sure know how to hurt a girl
Fewer hugs and no more kisses
Just water for your carburetor
And bearings for your pistons
Rev her engine for your pleasure
Caress and fondle her steering wheel
When you moan and hug her gear shift
Stop! Think how it makes me feel
[Chorus:]
Skidmarks on my heart
You've got me in fifth
You're burning rubber like my love
I'm driving in risk
Spend all your time and money
On that Pontiac GTO pile
Getting tired of your greasy antics
My pride's getting hurt by the mile
Blow her engine blow my mind
Keep her shocks and brakes aligned
I see that you're all jacked up
Leaving me and your exhaust behind
[Chorus]
I buy you cologne
You want axle grease
You say get a mechanic
I say get a shrink
I need promises
You want Motor Trend
Our love needs an overhaul
This may be the end
[Chorus]
WILLIE DIXON lyrics - After Five Long Years
(Willie Dixon)
After five long years I'm gonna make love
After five long years I'm gonna make love
After five long years I'm gonna make love
I'm gonna make love to you
After one long year I was watching you baby
After two long years you was driving me crazy
After three long years you know you still looked fine
After four long years I was out of my mind
After five long years I'm gonna make love to you
After one long year you had me lonesome and blue
After two long years I was begging you
After three long years you wouldn't change your mind
After four long years but I kept on trying
After five long years I'm gonna make love to you
After one long year I tried to be cool
After two long years I was just your tool
After three long years I was on the spot
After four long years well look what you got
After five long years I'm gonna make love to you

LYNYRD SKYNYRD lyrics - Ain't No Good Life
(Steve Gaines)
Ain't no good life
Not the one that I lead
'Cause the more I fight the sadness, yeah
It only seems the more that I grieve
Well I look back on the good times
As some lost part of me
I wanna know, tell me why is it so
Well just because I don't pray
Lord, that don't mean I ain't forgiven
Just 'cause I'm alive
That don't mean I'm makin' a livin'
I'm gonna get myself together
I'm gonna try a dyin' attempt
Talkin' about the good times slippin' by
Yeah I tell ya
I don't even know where last month went
Well I can't make no money baby
Well 'cause my money's already spent
And I know where it went
I said it went on that damn rent
Well I don't mean change, baby
I mean foldin' money
Well I want lovin', said I don't need a buddy
I don't need nobody, now
Ain't exactly my idea
Its sort of old, borrowed and blue
Just tryin' to say
Don't try that straight life buddy
Oh you'll find it kind of hard on you
Women, don't try to cook nothin' up, ooh
Brother you know you'll only wind up in your own stew
Just don't let nobody tell you, oh what you oughta do
COWBOY JUNKIES lyrics - Walking After Midnight
I was walking after midnight
Yeah, out in the moonlight
The way we used to do
I'm always walking after midnight
Searching for you
I'm always walking after midnight
Searching for you
I stop to see a weeping willow
Crying on his pillow
Maybe he's a-crying for me
And as the skys turn gloomy
The night winds whisper to me
I'm lonesome as I can be
I'm always walking after midnight
Searching for you
I walk for miles along the highway
Well that's just my way
Of saying "I love you"
I'm always walking after midnight
Searching for you
I walk for miles along the highway
Searching for you
I'm always walking after midnight
Yeah, out in the moonlight
Hoping you may be
Somewhere a-walking after midnight
Searching for me
I'm always walking after midnight
Searching for you
GEORGE HARRISON lyrics - Breath Away From Heaven
In another life
I woke up dreaming with a sigh
As the morning light
Was painting whispers of a joy
And I was in the candlelit bedroom
Enchanting beauty shimmering magically
Like an irridescent cloud
Being blown by a westerly wind
She can move your soul without you knowing
She can take your breath away from heaven
And I was captured by her loneliness
A wounded tiger on a willowy path
Like an opalescent moon all alone
In the sky of a foreign land
She can take your breath away from heaven
She can move your soul without you knowing
She can take your breath away from heaven
She is like an everlasting blossom
She can take your breath away from heaven

OTIS REDDING lyrics - Louie Louie
[Originally by Richard Berry]
Fine little girl she waits for me,
Me catch the ship for cross the sea
Me saidl the ship all alone
Me never think me make it home
Louie, Louie, me gotta go
Louie, Louie, me gotta go
Three nights and days me sail the sea
Me think of girl constantly
On the ship I dream she there
I smell the rose in her hair
Louie, Louie, me gotta go
Louie, Louie, me gotta go
Me see Jamaica moon above
It won't be long, me see my love,
I take her in my arms and then
Me tell her I never leave again
Louie, Louie, me gotta go
Louie, Louie, me gotta go
ARCADIA lyrics - El Diablo
(LeBon-Rhodes-Taylor)
Enter newborn players and gather
Weigh their innocence
Only the brightest shine
But not forever
Many lights die, many tears rain
When those tears run dry
On a mountain madness day
You were just in time
For a foolish deal... a lover sold
I can't stand another howling day
Inside of this empty skin
While the beacons burn a flame
Please return from so far away
One life with the devil do i play
For so long el diablo is to blame
Oh el diablo, el diablo, won't you sell me back my soul?
Oh el diablo, el diablo, won't you sell me back my soul?
Weddings on the wind, will she blow my way?
He can dance and she can sing
She will tear your heart away
While the promise burns a flame
And will you return from so far away?
One life with the devil do i play
For so long, el diablo is to blame
One life with the devil do i play
For so long, el diablo is to blame
One life but the devil is in my way
LEO SAYER lyrics - La Booga Rooga
(Andy Fairweather Low)
Don't look back, that'll get you nowhere
A wall to wall suit and space circus hair
One step forward, one step back
That's what happens and that's a fact
To tell the truth, you raise up your hand
Don't write me no invitations in the sand
And when you talk, say what you mean
Just keep it dry lord, and keep it clean
Watch out for a la booga rooga
Some you win and some you loosa
Watch out for la booga rooga
Some you win and some you loosa
I don't know why and I can't explain
Why I'm lost on a street with no name
That's alright, that's okay
I just feel like I'm slipping away
Satellite mama, if you are near
Hey, the party's over, now just get me outa here
Silent night, watch over me
See that nobody writes me into the dream
Watch out for la booga rooga
Some you win and some you loosa
Watch out for la booga rooga
Some you win and some you loosa
[Solo]
I'm on fire inside my head
Someone put out the light
And they sent the world to bed
It's not too late, but I, I just can't stop
I think this time I'm going over the top
Hey, Mr. Dogface, please let me in
Say, don't you think that I'm worth remembering
Watch your step, watch what you do
'Cos you need me much more than I need you
Watch out for la booga rooga
Some you win and some you loosa
Watch out for la booga rooga
Some you win and some you loosa
Watch out for la booga rooga
Some you win and some you loosa
Watch out for la booga rooga
Some you win and some you loosa
PHISH lyrics - Self
Grass has been greater
Skies have been bluer
I know my soul is down in the sewer
You say that I am selfish
Well you know that that is true
I don't care what you say pretty mama
And I don't care what you do
I don't care about anyone except myself
I don't care about anyone except myself
In the land of the brave
And the home of the free
I don't care about anyone except for me
If you are unhappy and
You have not won your race
Well, there ain't no mercy in this world
And there ain't none out in space
So welcome to the nineties
I hope that you make it through
But if you get in trouble honey
This is what I say to you
I don't care about anyone except myself
I don't care about anyone except myself
In the land of the brave
And the home of the free
I don't care about anyone except for me
This is not the era of roses, peace and love
I must admit I'm the only one
That I'm thinking of
Well, I just make my honey
And I put it in the bank
I buy myself some presents
With no one but myself to thank
NEIL DIAMOND lyrics - Love Potion Number Nine
I took my troubles down to Madame Ruth
You know that gypsy
With the gold cap tooth
She's got a pad down at 34th and Vine
Sellin' little bottles of Love Potion #9
I told her that I was a flop with chicks
I been this way since 1956
She looked at my palm
And she made a magic sign
She said
"Whatcha need is
A bottle of Love Potion #9"
She bent down and turned around
And gave me a wink
She said I'm gonna make it up
Right here in the sink
It smelled like turpentine
And looked like India ink
I held my nose
I closed my eyes
I took a drink
I didn't know if it was day or night
I started kissing everything in sight
But when I kissed a cop
Down at 34th and Vine
He broke my little bottle of
Love Potion #9
She bent down and turned around
And gave me a wink
She said I'm gonna make it up
Right here in the sink
It smelled like turpentine
And looked like India ink
I held my breath and closed my eyes
I took a drink
I didn't know if it was day or night
I started kissin' everything in sight
But when I kissed a cop
Down on 34th and Vine
He broke my little bottle of
Love Potion #9
Love Potion #9
Love Potion #9
Love Potion #9
Love Potion #9
ERIC CLAPTON lyrics - Crazy Country Hop
(J. Otis)
Way down in a country town one day
A little ole' country band began to play.
They had two guitars and a beat-up saxophone;
When the leader said go them cats began to blow.
[Chorus:]
Ooh wee oh oh,
Ooh la la, let's rock and roll.
Now all the poeple gathered 'round
Just to dig that rockin' rollin' sound.
Suddenly the drummer rang a bell
And all them country cats began to yell.
[Chorus]
Ole' MacDonald did a crazy bop
Said it's time to milk my cow, I got to stop,
But just before I cool it and cut out
Here's something all you cats can think about.
[Chorus]
Snaggle-toothed Malinda was a drag,
She latched onto a dude who showed up stag.
He tried to run and then he tripped and fell;
She kissed him and we all could hear him yell.
[Chorus]
Well, a hound dog ran a polecat into town,
Brought him to the dance and laid him down.
Someone hollered skunk and you can bet
All them country cats is runnin' yet.
[Chorus]
PETER, PAUL AND MARY lyrics - 24 Green Street
(John Fischer)
The paint is old and peeling
The shutters show some cracks
There's a heavy limb on the apple tree
That's got to be cut back
There's some water in the cellar
A little sagging in the floor
But this house has weathered many storms
It will weather many more
'Cause I scraped away the peeling paint
And found the wood was good and strong
And I found a firm foundation
Had been there all along
There's nothing here that a little work
And time can't heal
'Cause everything underneath is real
Nerves are frayed and ragged
Patience is wearing thin
Words were said in fits of rage
That never should have been
We bruised each other badly
Lost respect along the way
But there's too much here worth saving
To throw it all away
Can't we lay aside our fear and pride
And find the good within
All that we have shared before
Can be restored again
There's nothing here that a little work
And time can't heal
'Cause everything underneath is real

MOTT THE HOOPLE lyrics - The Moon Upstairs
(Ian Hunter / Mick Ralphs)
Well my brother he was a drinking man
And I asked him for release
He said this won't do you no good
And sent for the police
Well they busted me for nothing
Cos they said I was insane
So they let my body go
But they locked away my brain
Well I wandered freely as a bird that had broken both its wings
And I hated them and they hated me and I hated everthing
And I realise that to survive well my body is not mine
And I feel neglected feel rejected
Living in the wrong time
And to those of you who always laugh
Let this be your epitaph
And my head is down and I'm called a clown by comedians that grace
The living stage of every page of worthless meaningless space
But I swear to you before we're though you're gonna feel our every blow
We ain't bleeding you we're feeding you but you're too f*cking slow
And to those of you who always laugh
Let this be your epitaph
ZUCCHERO lyrics - Ridammi Il Sole
(Zucchero)
Lo sai che cosa e la gioia
Tu lo sai cos'e
E allora perche sei cosi gaia
Tu lo sai perche?
Di un cuore puro e in fiamme
E gonfio come un bigne
Che danno solo le donne
Le donne come te!
Ridammi il sole
Che avevo dentro me
Ridammi il sole
Che piove dentro me
Della solitudine in fondo
Dimmi che ne sai
E di un'anima grande come il mondo
Dimmi che ne sai
Di un disperato in panne
Che fuma cento caffe
Che danno solo le donne
Le donne come te!
Ridammi il sole
Che avevo dentro me
Ridammi il sole
Che piove dentro me
Sei la gioia che ride
Mio Dio no!
O la gioia che uccide
Non lo so.
Ridi pagliaccio!
Bring back the sun....
Ridammi il sole
Che avevo dentro me
Ridammi il sole
Che piove dentro me
BLUE OYSTER CULT lyrics - Here Comes That Feeling
(Dick Trismen and Donald Roeser)
Drivin' alone into the darkness
I heard you call my name
And the roar of the engine
Is calling me to blame
Tears in my mirror cryin' for the people behind us
But I know I won't let you go, oh no
Here comes that feeling again
I'm wrapping my dreams around you
And our love is healin' again
After all we've been through
And I know there's a place inside of my heart
That the road will never find
And I'm afraid the approaching headlights
Will someday leave me blind
You shatter the mirror
Fight off the forces that drive me on tonight
I won't let you go, oh no
Here comes that feeling again
I'm wrapping my dreams around you
And our love is healin' again
After all we've been through
Baby, climb into the night time
Girl, this moment is the right time
Drivin' on and I'm still hungry
To make the next town
And this road's the only
thing that could bring us down
If it keeps me driving
I swear i'll never leave you behind
And I know I can't let you go, oh no
Here comes that feeling again
I'm wrapping my dreams around you
And our love is healin' again
After all we've been through
Here comes that feeling again
Here comes that feeling again
BONNIE RAITT lyrics - Under The Falling Sky
Warm and lovely mystery, fire smiling through
Before this moment fades away I want to know you
I've got lightening in my pocket, thunder in my shoe
Have no fear I've got something here I want to show you
Low, under the falling sky
Easily we will lie
While I bring it to you
It's a low road, a high wire going from me to you
And in your eyes the distance left is closing
I've got a feeling in my oceans
Blood underneath my skin
That into your bright fields this prison is opening
Our shadows wake each day though they don't know why
They hope and try - live and die
So leave them in their frozen world
Come and be my lover
If only for one stolen moment
We will live forever
Warm and lovely mystery, can you hear the choir?
Voices can no longer hold my desire
Just abandon your sad history and meet me in the fire
Angels wait to take me higher and higher
Higher and higher

CHRIS REA lyrics - Just Want To Be With You
I just wanna be with you
No matter what they say
Just wanna be with you
Every night and every day
Cold nights, dark days
I wanna be with you
I just wanna be with you
Till the final curtain falls
Just wanna be with you
Then know nothing at all
Cold nights, dark days
I wanna be with you
Wanna be with you
I know there's a price to pay
For doing what we do
But I just wanna be with you
Just wanna be with you
Don't wanna hold you down
Whatever that you do
Shine on, sweet angel
'Cos I just wanna be with you
I wanna be with you
IRVING BERLIN lyrics - Song Of Freedom
[Lyrics from sheet music:]
[Verse:]
Freedom, freedom
That's my song for today
Listen to this American troubador from the U. S.A.
[Refrain:]
I'm singing a song of freedom
For all people who cry out to be free
Free to sail the seven seas
Free to worship as we please
If the birds up in the trees can be free
Why can't we?
I'm bringing a song of freedom
To all people wherever they may be
Free to speak and free to hear
Free from want and free from fear
Sons of freedom far and near who agree, sing with me
That all God's children shall be free
[As sung in film:]
[Verse:]
-Freedom! Freedom!
-Here comes the Freedom Man
On this day of independence
On this Independence Day
Listen to an American troubador from the U. S.A.
[Refrain:]
I'm singing a song of freedom
For all people who cry out to be free
Free to sail the seven seas
Free to worship as we please
If the birds up in the trees can be free
Why can't we?
I'm bringing a song of freedom
To all people wherever they may be
Free to speak and free to hear
Free from want and free from fear
Sons of freedom far and near who agree, sing with me
That all God's people shall be free

TONY BANKS lyrics - The Gift
The door is opening there's a glimmer of light
Keep on pushing it will give tonight
And I don't care if it takes me long
It really doesn't matter if its right or wrong
The fires are burning and its warm inside my soul
As we wander down the road
The gift is mine tonight
Don't care if the mood won't last
And I don't care if it goes slow or fast
The stage is set, the timing's right
Let me lead you to the light
A chance is all there's ever gonna be
It's here let's take a hold
The gift is mine tonight - tonight
The magic look is in your eye
The power to move and satisfy
And the promise that you bring to me
Lifts me up and sets me free.
I've thought of how it could be in the future everyday
I've thought of all the good things in the past
Everyday, everynight.
I shouted at the sky but the sky was deaf
I looked into the ashes but the heat had all left
I never dreamed that it could be this way again
The magic look is in your eye
The power to move and satisfy
And the promise that you bring to me
Lifts me up and sets me free.
And I don't care if the cost is great
Stop and think about it, it's too late
The sails are set, the tide has turned
Time to go explore the world
The winds are blowing but its warm inside my soul
As we turn and leave the shore
The gift is mine tonight
The magic look is in your eye
The power to move and satisfy
And the promise that you bring to me
Lifts me up and sets me free.
The magic look is in your eye
The power to move and satisfy
And the promise that you bring to me
Lifts me up and sets me free...
HEART lyrics - Fallen Ones (Unplugged)
Born on the edge of a borderline
In the simmering summer of sweet blue fire
Now you walk on the cold cold wind
Nothing left of your light
The living sun just falls away leaving only day - day for night
Again and again the comrades fall
The tears roll down and the wounded crawl
In this heartless crazy world the wounds just burn like fire
Light a light for the fallen ones
Light a light and hold it - hold it high
Your burning star turned to midnight sun
I will stay alive for the fallen ones
Dancing with the smoke of your devastated flame
Dancing with the smoke dancing with the rain
So cold being here again
So I call your name - I call - I call your name

JEFFERSON AIRPLANE lyrics - D. C.B. A.-25
(Paul Kantner)
It's time you walked away and set me free--
I must move away, 'n' leave you be.
It has been good to us my friend,
Wait, and see how it will end.
We come and go as we please.
(Grace: We come and go as we please)
(Paul: That's how it has to be).
Here in this ocean, the near and holy,
Too many days I've left unstoned.
If you don't mind, happiness
Purple pleasure-fields in the sun
Ah don't you know I'm runnin' home
(Grace: Don't you know I'm runnin' home)
(Paul: To a place, for you unknown).
I take great peace in your sitting there(1).
Searching for myself, I find a place there(2).
I see the people of the world,
Where they are and what they could be.
I can but dance behind your smile
(Grace: I can but dance behind your smile)
(Paul: To [the] other world---to me, for a while)
FRANK SINATRA lyrics - When The Wind Was Green
(H. Stinson)
[Recorded April 14, 1965, Hollywood]
When the wind was green at the start of the spring
When the wind was green like a living thing
It was on my lips and its kiss was fair
You were there
When the wind was red like a summer wine
When the wind was red like your lips on mine
It caressed my face and it tossed my hair
You were there
Then came the fall and all of love came tumbling, stumbling down
Like leaves that lost to frost and found
They were flying, crying
In a brown wind dying
But the winter's come and we both should know
That the wind is white like the swirling snow
And we'll never see all the wonderful things to be seen
When the wind is green

MICHAEL JACKSON lyrics - I'll Come Home To You
If I had my way girl
I'd never leave for a minute
But things don't always turn out
The way we want them to
So while I'm away
I want you to remember
How much I love you
I love you, I love you
Let this love lift you up
Whne you're feelin' blue
Wherever I go, I will be loving you
Think of me when you see
Places we once shared
Whatever I do, someday I'll need you there
Wherever I go, whatever I do
I'll always come home
I'll come home to you
Even though we both know
You're not in my arms
Wherever I go, you're always in my heart
Just you ask, I'll come back
Though we're miles apart
Whatever I do, I'll come to where you are
Wherever I go, whatever I do
I'll always come home
I'll come home to you
Wherever I go, whatever I do
I'll always come home
I'll come home to you
NAZARETH lyrics - Beggars Day & Rose In Heather
If this is heaven, then I'm in hell
If trust is misfortune, then wish me well
While I think of sadness baby
Your light shines through, your light shines through
Your light shines through
chorus:
Because it's beggar's day
Because it's beggar's day
Because it's beggar's day
I've lost control of my darker side
A world all for free, on a nastier ride
*And I have crossed myself in anger
All your mercy can't save me, all your mercy can't save me
All your mercy can't save me
Because it's beggar's day
Because it's beggar's day
Because it's beggar's day
lead:
It's beggar's day
You know it's beggar's day
Because it's beggar's day
See this love, I've stored for you
Wheel it and deal it, but our feelin's are true
repeat *
chorus (2x)

KYLIE MINOGUE lyrics - Stars
You're asking yourself What's real
What to do with these feelings
That you have inside surreal
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
When you look deep into the pockets of the universe
You never know what you find
Because stars don't shine in singular places
Open up your mind's eye and
Light up familiar faces
Because in time
You'll find life and all of it's races
So open up your mind's eye
And go tonight
Begin to feel the light
How do we know the truth
Gotta look to the root
Inside the meaning of life for you
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
When you look deep into the pockets of the universe
You never know what you will find
Because stars don't shine in singular places
Open up your mind's eye and
Light up familiar faces
Because in time
You'll find life and all of it's races
So open up your mind's eye
And go tonight
Begin to feel the light
Stars don't shine
Stars don't shine
Stars don't shine
Stars don't shine
Stars don't shine
You never know what you will find
Because stars don't shine in singular places
Open up your mind's eye and
Light up familiar faces
Because in time
You'll find life and all of it's races
So open up your mind's eye
And go tonight
Begin to feel the light

THE GO-GO'S lyrics - Living At The Canterbury
(Wiedlin)
Okay living in the city
Whores outside a-posing
Traffic noise a lullaby
Skyscapers better than the blue skies
We can do what we want
We can say what we please
We can be who we want
Being poor's okay by me
Proud I don't have no TV
Living at the Canterbury
[My friends think I'm a fool]
Living at the Canterbury
I guess it's pretty cool
Living at the Canterbury
Fighting off the roaches
Like being in a dormitory
Till rental due approaches
[Don't know where we'll get the cash]
Spent it all on booze
I'm no fool with credit cards
It's better not to think
Sometimes little I like to think!
BEASTIE BOYS lyrics - Pass The Mic

Hey Beau, let's go and get pirogue and push-pole down the bayou,

PETER GABRIEL lyrics - That Voice Again
I want to be with you
I want to be clear
but each time I try
it's the voice I hear
I hear that voice again
I'm listening to the conversation
judge and jury in my head
it's colouring everything
all we did and said
and still I head that sharp tongue talking
talking tangled words
I can sense the danger
just listen to the wind
I want you close I want you near
I can't help but listen
but I don't want to hear
hear that voice again
I want to be with you
I want to be clear
but each time I try
it's the voice I hear
I hear that voice again
I'm hearing right and wrong so clearly
there must be more than this
it's only in uncertainty
that we're naked and alive
I hear it through the rattle of a streetcar
hear it through the things you said
I can get so scared
listen to the wind
I want you close I want you near
I can't help but listen
but I don't want to hear
hear that voice again
what I carry in my heart
brings us so close or so far apart
only love can make love
I want you close I want you near
I can't help but listen
but I don't want to hear
I hear that voice again
I want to be with you
I want to be clear
but each time I try
it's the voice I hear
I hear that voice again
CHRIS REA lyrics - Summer Love
Once there was a summer love
Long ago and far away
The autumn whispers to the falling leaves
Summer love can't stay
This was their place, this was where
Just for one moment, without cares
Two lovers dreaming of how the world should be
Please bring back my summer love to me
Did you have to go, did I have to stay
Did you have to go, away
Now it's all gone, but who can forget
Summer love, sweet summer love
I see your shadow everywhere
I feel your smile though you're not there
A kiss for every star in the sky way above
You'll always be my one and only summer love

VAN MORRISON lyrics - New Biography
See you've got the new biography
Where did they get the info from
Same as before some, so called friends
Who claim to have, known me then
How come they've got such good memories
And I can't even remember last week
Got to queston where they're coming from
What knowledge of me is it that they speak
So far away, way back when
The people that claim, to have known me then
Not on my wavelength and it's such a shame
That they have to play the name game
The fame game, oh the name game,
Lord it's a cryin' shame
Lord tell me what's to blame
Reinvented all the stories they know
Give them all a different slant
What is it that they're really looking for
Just a hobby on the internet
So far away, way back when
The people that claim, to have known me then
Not on my wavelength and it's such a shame
That they have to play the name game
The fame game, the name game,
Oh it's such a cryin' shame, tell me who's to blame
If they didn't really know me way back
How can they know me now, in any respect
It's a pity they don't feel the pain
That they should pay the price to play, to play
The fame game, the name game
It's such a cryin' shame, please tell me who's to blame
Not on my wavelength and it's such a shame
That they have to play, have to play the fame game
Oh the name game, it's a cryin' shame
Please tell me who's to blame
They keep on playin'
The fame game, oh the name game
It's such a cryin' shame, please tell me who's to blame
Keep on playin' the fame game
Lord, the name game, its such a cryin' shame
Please tell me who's to blame
They just keep on playin' the fame game
Oh the name game, its such a cryin' shame
Please tell me who's to blame
Keep on, keep on playin'..
BARBRA STREISAND lyrics - Kiss Me In The Rain
I remember sitting on the front steps
Feeling the softness of a warm summer rain
I see the reflections of my mind
All the sadness all the pain
Visions of yesterday,
How fast they slip away
And though my dreams have come and gone
With one wish I can say:
Kiss me in the rain, and make me feel like a child again
Bring back all those memories
Kiss me in the rain, and make me feel like a child again
With the feeling that I get,
I don't even mind if we get wet
And if I drift outside myself
Please don't turn away
I'm searching for the innocence
I've lost along the way
Come join me in my fantasy
Step out of space and time
There's only one thing left to do
So if you wouldn't mind:
Kiss me in the rain, and make me feel like a child again
Bring back all those memories
Kiss me in the rain, and make me feel like a child again
With the feeling that I get,
I don't even mind if I get wet
Kiss me in the rain, and make me feel like a child again
Bring back all those memories
Kiss me in the rain, and make me feel like a child again
With the feeling that I get,
I don't even mind if I get wet
Come on kiss me in the rain
Oh, won't you kiss me in the rain
With the feeling that I get
I don't even mind if I get wet
FRANK SINATRA lyrics - Little Green Apples
(B. Russel)
[Recorded November 13, 1968, Hollywod]
And I wake up in the morning, with my hair down in my eyes,
And she says hi, and I stumble to the breakfast table,
While the kids are going off to school goodbye.
And she reaches out and takes my hand,
Squeezes it, says, how you feelin' hon?
And I look across at smiling lips that warm my heart and see my morning sun.
And if that's not lovin' me, then all I've got to say.
God didn't make little green apples
And it don't rain in Indianapolis in the summertime.
There's no such thing as Dr. Zeuss, Disneyland, and Mother Goose no nurs'ry rhyme.
God didn't make little green apples
And it don't rain in Indianapolis when the winter comes.
There's no such thing as make-believe, puppy dogs, and autumn leaves and B. B. guns.
Sometimes I call her up at home knowing she's busy
And ask if she could get away and meet me, and grab a bite to eat.
And she drops what she's doin' and hurries down to meet me, and I'm always late.
But she sits, waiting patiently and smiles when she first sees me
Cause she's made that way and if that's not lovin' me
Then all I've got to say.

JOHN LEE HOOKER lyrics - Five Long Years
(Eddie Boyd)
If you've ever been mistreated, you know just what I'm talkin' about
If you've ever been mistreated, you know just what I'm talkin' about
I worked five long years for one woman, she had the nerve to put me out
I got a job in a steel mill, truckin' steel like a slave
Five years of fright runnin' straight home with all my pay
I been mistreated, you know just what I'm talkin' about
I worked five long years for one woman, she had the nerve to put me out
Yes, yes, yeah
I fin'ly learned to listen, I should a long, long time ago
Next woman I marry, she got to work and bring me some gold, oh yeah
You know just what I'm talkin' about
I worked five long years for one woman, she had the nerve to put me out, oh yeah
It's too bad, too bad
DOLLY PARTON lyrics - The Mystery Of The Mystery
(Porter Wagoner)
There are so many things that I don't understand
And I search my mind to try to find an answer
But the more I search the less I seem to find out why
Like where where the wind goes, how does life begin
What happens when we die
The mystery of the mystery must stay unknown
Only God can know and man must not see
Great minds have tried but they will not find
The answer to the mystery of the mystery
Man will seek the mystic rails of the mystery
But their silent halls reveal not a sound
Many men will give their lives just to try to find
The answer to a mystery in their mind
The mystery of the mystery must stay unknown
Only God can know and man must not see
Great minds have tried but they will not find
The answer to the mystery of the mystery
JACKSON BROWNE lyrics - Lives In The Balance
I've been waiting for something to happen
For a week or a month or a year
With the blood in the ink of the headlines
And the sound of the crowd in my ear
You might ask what it takes to remember
When you know that you've seen it before
Where a government lies to a people
And a country is drifting to war
And there's a shadow on the faces
Of the men who send the guns
To the wars that are fought in places
Where their business interest runs
On the radio talk shows and the T. V.
You hear one thing again and again
How the U. S.A. stands for freedom
And we come to the aid of a friend
But who are the ones that we call our friends
These governments killing their own?
Or the people who finally can't take any more
And they pick up a gun or a brick or a stone
There are lives in the balance
There are people under fire
There are children at the cannons
And there is blood on the wire
There's a shadow on the faces
Of the men who fan the flames
Of the wars that are fought in places
Where we can't even say the names
They sell us the President the same way
They sell us our clothes and our cars
They sell us every thing from youth to religion
The same time they sell us our wars
I want to know who the men in the shadows are
I want to hear somebody asking them why
They can be counted on to tell us who our enemies are
But they're never the ones to fight or to die
And there are lives in the balance
There are people under fire
There are children at the cannons
And there is blood on the wire

CROSBY, STILLS, NASH & YOUNG lyrics - Compass
(David Crosby)
I have wasted ten years in a blind-fold,
Ten-fold more than I've invested now in sight.
I have traveled beveled mirrors in a fly crawl,
Losing the reflection of a fight.
But like a compass seeking north, (seeking north).
There lives in me a still, sure, spirit part.
Clouds of doubt are cut asunder (clouds of doubt).
By the lightning and the thunder
Shining from the compass of my heart (shining from my heart).
I have flown the frantic flight of the bat-wing
And only known the dark because of that
I have seized death's door-handle
Like a fish out of the water
Waiting for the mercy of the cat.
But like a compass seeking north, (seeking north).
There lives in me a still, sure, spirit part.
Clouds of doubt are cut asunder (clouds of doubt).
By the lightning and the thunder
Shining from the compass of my heart (shining from my heart).

AEROSMITH lyrics - Major Barbra
Major....
Major Barbra sits in the fields
And waits for her crops to grow
She sits in a chair, that she made outa wood
So many many years ago
Major why won't they grow
You giv'em their water and hope
Major why won't they grow
She waits all day
And she hopes through the night
For a new day that might show
A bright yellow sun
That will make the crops come
And let the old days go
Major why won't they grow
You've given them water and hope
Major why won't they grow...ohh
Major...
Look out in your field
Tell me what do you see shinin' through
Major...
Look after your fields
And your fields will look after you
Yes they do
Yes they do
Yeah yeah yeah...
Major...
Look out in your fields
Tell me what do you see shinnin' through
Major...
Look after your fields
And your fields will look after you
Yes they do
Yeah they do
Yeah yeah yeah...
YELLO lyrics - Daily Disco
Your dancing drives me crazy
I wanna see it all night long
Dj could be playing
Always this one song
Your dancing drives me crazy
Your dancing drives me mad
Please sue don't be so lazy
If you don't dance I'm sad
I wanna see you moving
And dancing all the night
The way that sue is moving
Is nothing but divine
And only in the disco
I know she can be mine
And when the night is over
The club is closing down
I wanna give her anything I got
I give her just a crown
I wanna see you moving
And dancing all the night
I'm not here for the music
Or for your eyes so blue
I got to see you dancing
To be in love with you
I wanna get my daily disco
Watch you all the night
I wanna get my daily disco
Did you get that sue all right
I wanna see you moving
And dancing all the night
Hey you
I wanna see your dance
Cause you're the only one
And when you dance
I know you're mine
I wanna see your dance
I want it all night long
Oh sue you're so divine
Hey you
Another night is gone
Another day is back
I am walking home and feel all right
Sun in my eyes
One thing in my mind
I hope to see you sue tonight
My name is clinch dedee
You're the only one I wanna see
You're the only one I want to dance
I'm one of your fans
I'm one of your fans
I wanna see you moving
Dancing all the night
Don't come any closer
It's damaging my sight
It's damagine my sight
ALISON KRAUSS AND UNION STATION lyrics - Every Time You Say Goodbye
(John Pennell)
Look at the sky baby
What do you see?
Looks like the tears that I cry
Fallin' down like rain on the ground
Every time you say goodbye
Take a look around now
Why don't you feel
The way that cold wind stings and bites
And your words just are like arrows through my heart
Every time you say goodbye
There's a restless feeling knocking at my door today
There's a shadow hanging 'round my garden gate
I read between the lines of words you can't disguise
Love has gone away, and put these tears in my eyes
Look at the sky baby, see how it cries?
Ain't it just like my tears
Fallin' down like rain on the ground
Every time you say goodbye
There's a restless feeling knocking at my door today
There's a shadow hanging 'round my garden gate
I read between the lines of words you can't disguise
Love has gone away, and put these tears in my eyes
There's a restless feeling knocking at my door today
There's a shadow hanging 'round my garden gate
I read between the lines of words you can't disguise
Love has gone away, and put these tears in my eyes
VINCE GILL lyrics - Son Of A Ramblin' Man
Have you ever had a thing for a woman
A thing that makes you lose your mind
Everytime I start to think about her
Sends shivers up and down my spine
My daddy was a bit of a rounder
Siad these women are gonna make you go blind
Well I told my old man that I'm right over here
Like the way I see just fine
[Chorus:]
I'm the son of a ramblin' man
Son of a runnin' kind
I'm the son of a ramblin' man
Come from a long long line
Well I'm just a hillbilly gypsy
Ain't much for settling down
If I thought somebody might miss me
Maybe I'd have to hang around
So I better keep on drifting
Every town just a little too small
Ain't nothin' in the world like a woman
I'm going to try to love them all
[Chorus 3x]
AMERICA lyrics - Desperate Love
Secret calls long after hours
Suspicions rise, why does she whisper
Someone's hiding something
What's going on
She smiles and finds an excuse to go out
Meets him somewhere on the edge of town
For one more night of real love
How can it be wrong
'Cause when they turn out the lights
In their rented room tonight
Two lovers won't be lonely anymore
When it's a desperate love, risk is high
Cheating hearts making alibis
In the shadows someone is waiting
Waiting for their lover to come tonight
A cheater's conscience has no pride
To spend the night with another man's wife
Lie to his best friend and never think twice
He knows where to find what he longs to have
And do anything 'cause he wants her that bad
Love has many faces, faces to hide
'Cause when they turn out the lights
In their rented room tonight
Two lovers won't be lonely anymore
When it's a desperate love, risk is high
Cheating hearts making alibis
In the shadows someone is waiting
Waiting for their lover to come tonight
When it's a desperate love, risk is high
Cheating hearts making alibis
In the shadows someone is waiting
Waiting for their lover to come tonight
When it's a desperate love (desperate love), risk is high
Cheating hearts making alibis
In the shadows someone is waiting
Waiting for their lover to come tonight
When it's a desperate love (desperate love), risk is high
Cheating hearts making alibis
In the shadows someone is waiting
Waiting for their lover to come tonight...
BONNIE RAITT lyrics - I Need Love
I need love
And I search it everyplace I go
And lately I been in a zone
It's got a will of its own
But right now I'm here to discuss
Just what you think about us
I need love, I need love
And I'm checkin everything I see
You know at times I wanna take on three
That's just the way I could be
I let you know about that
Just so you know where I'm at
I need love, I need love
It's always been this way and ain't' nothin'
Gonna change it
And ain't nothing you can try
I need love, I need love
And I'm takin every chance I man
And baby you could make my day
There's just one thing I should say
Now that's it's all said and done
You know I do need to run
I need love, I need love
REBA MCENTIRE lyrics - The Angels Sang
(Helen Darling/Peggy Newman)
My little boy was a wise man this year
His Christmas play was something I couldn't miss
Between the shopping and my job I barely got there
My faith was worn from stress and strain
Until those little
Angels sang (hallelujah)
To the King (people rejoice)
He brought peace and joy to all the world
When he came
And the angels sang (hallelujah)
And they sang (people rejoice)
And as I watched those innocent children
I felt the greatness of that holy night
And for a moment I was right there with those wise men
So overwhelmed with love and light I had to cry when the
Angels sang (hallelujah)
To the King (people rejoice)
He brought peace and joy to all the world
When he came
And the angels sang (hallelujah)
And they sang (people rejoice)
Angels sang (hallelujah)
To the King (people rejoice)
He brought peace and joy to all the world
When he came
And the angels sang (hallelujah)
And they sang (people rejoice)

HARRY CONNICK, JR. lyrics - We Three Kings
(Reverend John Henry Hopkins, Jr.)
We three kings of Orient are;
Bearing gifts we traverse afar,
Field and fountain, moor and mountain,
Following yonder star.
[Refrain:]
O star of wonder, star of light,
Star with royal beauty bright,
Westward leading, still proceeding,
Guide us to thy perfect light.
Born a King on Bethlehem's plain
Gold I bring to crown Him again,
King forever, ceasing never,
Over us all to reign.
[Refrain]
Frankincense to offer have I;
Incense owns a Deity nigh;
Prayer and praising, voices raising,
Worshipping God on high.
[Refrain]
Myrrh is mine, its bitter perfume
Breathes a life of gathering gloom;
Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying,
Sealed in the stone cold tomb.
[Refrain]
Glorious now behold Him arise;
King and God and sacrifice;
Alleluia, Alleluia,
Sounds through the earth and skies.
[Refrain]
RICHARD THOMPSON lyrics - Tear Stained Letter
(Richard Thompson)
It was three in the morning when she took me apart
She wrecked the furniture, she wrecked my heart
She danced on my head like Arthur Murray
The scars ain't never going to mend in a hurry
Just when I thought I could learn to forget her
Right through the door come a tear-stained letter
Oh, oh, oh love love
Cry, cry if it makes you feel better
Set it all down in a tear-stained letter
Oh, oh, oh love love love
Cry, cry if it makes you feel better
Set it all down in a tear-stained letter
Well my head was beating like a song by the Clash
It was writing cheques that my body couldn't cash
Got to my feet, I was reeling and dizzy
I went for the 'phone but the line was busy
Just when I thought that things would get better
Right through the door come a tear-stained letter
Oh, oh, oh love love
Cry, cry if it makes you feel better
Set it all down in a tear-stained letter
Oh, oh, oh love love love love
Cry, cry if it makes you feel better
Set it all down in a tear-stained letter
Well I like coffee and I like tea
But I just don't like this fiddle-di-dee
It makes me nervous, it gives me the hives
Waiting for a kiss from a bunch of fives
Just when I think I could learn to forget her
Right through the door come a tear-stained letter
Oh, oh, oh love love love
Cry, cry if it makes you feel better
Set it all down in a tear-stained letter
Oh, oh, oh love love
Cry, cry if it makes you feel better
Set it all down in a tear-stained letter
Oh, oh, oh
Cry, cry if it makes you feel better
Set it all down in a tear-stained letter

ALICE IN CHAINS lyrics - Head Creeps
No more time
Just one more time
So crazy, beat the strain
Too lazy, shake the gray
So, and she willed the rain
So let me be defamed
Your redundancy stains
Tired of infantile claims
Like puppets on a string
Untangle you from me
Time to call the doggies off
Tired of the shadowin'
Slide me to the side again
Slapped in the face again
No more time
Just one more time
Your redundancy stains
Tired of infantile claims
Like puppets on a string
Untangle you from me
So crazy, beat the strain
Too lazy, shake the gray
So, and she willed the rain
So let me be defamed
Time to call the doggies off
Tired of the shadowin'
Slide me to the side again
Slapped in the face again
One day my plane leaves
Some way my head creeps
Some day my head leads
Some way my head creeps
No more time
Just one more time
Empty room sets the scene
Pick at me slow, pain fiend
Suck me through barbed screen
Anger becomes our queen
Tongue whipping forked black
How long until you crack
Surprised and set back
Lackeys' loose talk for fact
Time to call the doggies off
Tired of the shadowin'
Slide me to the side again [2x]
Slapped in the face again
One day my plane leaves
Some way my head creeps
Some day my head leads
Some way my head creeps
Creeps
No more time
Just one more time
So crazy feel the hate
Yeah, I've got years to wait
I know it's not too late
Lending clean hands of fate
Rise from the dirt I'm in
Hide in another's skin
Stick black dress doll with pin
Your mouth takes on my grin
So crazy [3x]

MISFITS lyrics - American Nightmare
Hot cherry on Friday night
When the sun goes down my spine
I put an axe in my baby's head
I'm gonna end up doing time
She looks so good in red
American nightmare running scared
She shoulda been hard to get
She shoulda been hard to kill
She shoulda been hard to kill, hey
I had to split your head
American nightmare running scared
I'm heading down the highway
Sign has three inverted nines
If the lord don't get me the devil will
But not without a fight
This highway never fucking ends
American nightmare running scared
American nightmare running scared
I'm heading down the highway
Sign has three inverted nines
If the lord don't get me the devil will
But not without a fight
This highway never fucking ends
American nightmare running scared
Hey, American nightmare running scared
JERMAINE JACKSON lyrics - Lonely Won't Leave Me Alone
Why do I seem to be
Caught up inside a dream all my life
It's always a voice somewhere
Saying I never should try to set my heart free
I try to say I love you
But the words won't come trough
In my eyes see all the tears and sad memories
Were I could hold someone
And words like right and wrong
Would just fade away like yesterday
Lonely won't leave me alone
Lonely won't leave me alone
Lonely won't leave me alone
Won't even let me fall in love
Ooh, ooh
Everywhere I go
Aways by my side
Lonely won't let me fall in love
Is it a game I play
Or can it be yesterday In my mind always a part of my memory
Why can't I start out new
And leaves that old feeling too far behind
I guess that lonely needs company
Around each bend of road
I'm thinking that in time
There will be that rainbow's end
Or when I follow those
Self-illusions I find
It's just the two of us again
Lonely won't leave me alone
Lonely won't leave me alone
Why, tell me why
Lonely just keeps my heart out of touch
Ooh, ooh
Everywhere I go
Aways by my side
Lonely won't let me fall in love
SONIC YOUTH lyrics - Trilogy: a) The Wonder
See flashing eyes
They're flashing cross to me
Burnin up the sky
Sunshinin to me
Yr locus crown
Copkillin heartbeat
Head's lookin down
Bowin out to the street
I'm just walking around
Yr city is a wonder town
Lips red to white
Lips green in blacked night
Yr spirit flares
Flarin up leonine
I'm just walking around
Yr city is a wonder town
Transmitter rhyme
Transmitter all the time
Lookin up to the sky
I'm seeing ghosts flyin
I'm just walkin around
Yr city is a wonder town
I think I been there once before
Something tells me there's so much more
She's back in town to even the score
Time to go
See flashing eyes
They're flashing 'cross to me
Burnin' up the sky
Sunshining into me
Your locus crown
Cop-killin' heartbeat
Head's lookin' down
Bowin' out, to the street
I'm just walkin' around
Your city is a wonder town
BARCLAY JAMES HARVEST lyrics - Silver Wings
Did we take away the daylight from our life?
Dreams are over, faded with the night
We've been here so long, didn't we see the way
Love grown cold as ice melted with the rain
After all these years
Can't believe it's true
Is it really over
After all that we've been through?
I need you here
To take away the pain
I just want to be with you again
Did you see the way
We broke the things we made
Gone forever, never be the same
Torn away on "silver wings"
Love like lightning ended in the rain
After all this time
You're still the only one
Can't be over, all we've said and done
I need you back
To take away the pain
I just want to be with you again
I need you back
To take away the pain
I just want to be with you again

SUZANNE VEGA lyrics - Machine Ballerina
Am I an afternoon's pastime?
a thing on a string
to be thrown and retrieved
like a phone call received
on somebody's birthday
to tease and delight
and then say goodnight
and then just say goodbye?
Am I a toy on a tray?
a soft piece of clay
queen or clown for the day
machine ballerina
soldier of tin
standing so loyal
while you sit so royal
then I'm put away?
For your approval,
perusal,
and your possible
refusal,
I'm amusing,
I'm a puppet for your play.
Am I your Mad Magazine?
skin trampoline
pin-up pinball machine
your fantasy girl
of puzzling parts
but none fits or starts
we match wits but not hearts
I'm heard but never seen?
For your approval,
perusal,
and your possible
refusal,
I'm amusing,
I'm a puppet for your play.
ALICE COOPER lyrics - Stolen Prayer
I walk the streets alone
On feeble bones I ride
My sins are etched in stone
I got no place to hide
Well, I was unshakable
In what I did believe
I feel so breakable
But have I been deceived
You showed me your paradise
And your carnival of souls
But my heart keeps telling me
That ain't the place to go
Well, I'm not invincible
So I want you to leave
Well, I'm so convincible
But have I been deceived
[Chorus:]
I take your words and try them on
Yeah, it's a perfect fit, boy
You tell me one size fits us all
Yeah, like an old straightjacket
Well, tell me why I'm so afraid
All my words are spoken
All my words are spoken
All my words are spoken
In a stolen prayer
I remember yesterday
When things were black and white
Never thought I'd get confused
On what was wrong and right
Well, I'm not unbreakable
With armour on my skin
Well, it's not unthinkable
I could be fooled again
[Chorus]
You steal another minute from my life
You cut a little deeper with your knife
You steal a little breath from my air
And you don't care
And even thought I'm chokin'
All my words are spoken
I take your words and try them on
Yeah, it's a perfect fit, boy
You tell me one size fits us all
Yeah, like an old straightjacket
Take this world and try it on
Man, you're lookin' good boy
Stick your neck out on the block
So you won't miss nothing
Stretch your finger, grab your hair
Don't you feel like screaming
Feel the blood rush from your veins
Now you're a perfect zombie
Now I'm on my knees
All my words are spoken
All my words are spoken
All my words are spoken
All my words are spoken
All my words are spoken
In a stolen prayer

MORRISSEY lyrics - I'll Never Be Anybody's Hero Now
Warm lights from the grand houses blind me
Haves cannot stand have-nots
And my love is under the ground
Aye one true love is under the ground
And I'll never be
I'll never be
I'll never be anybody's hero now
I'll never be
I'll never be
I'll never be anybody's hero now
They who should love me
Walk right through me
I am a ghost
And as far as I know I haven't even died
And my love is under the ground
My one true love is under the ground
And I'll never be
I'll never be
I'll never be anybody's hero now
I'll never be
I'll never be
I'll never be anybody's hero now
See as I.. See as I.. See as I..
I'll never be
I'll never be
I'll never be anybody's lover now
I'll never be
I'll never be
I'll never be anybody's lover now
Things I've heard and I've seen
And I've felt and I've been
Tell me I'll never be anybody's lover now
It begins in the heart
And it hurts when it's true
It only hurts because it's true
JANIS JOPLIN lyrics - Piece Of My Heart
Oh, come on, come on, come on, come on!
Didn't I make you feel like you were the only man — yeah!
An' didn't I give you nearly everything that a woman possibly can?
Honey, you know I did!
And each time I tell myself that I, well I think I've had enough,
But I'm gonna show you, baby, that a woman can be tough.
I want you to come on, come on, come on, come on and take it,
Take it!
Take another little piece of my heart now, baby!
Oh, oh, break it!
Break another little bit of my heart now, darling, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, oh, have a!
Have another little piece of my heart now, baby,
You know you got it if it makes you feel good,
Oh, yes indeed.
You're out on the streets looking good,
And baby deep down in your heart I guess you know that it ain't right,
Never, never, never, never, never, never hear me when I cry at night,
Babe, and I cry all the time!
But each time I tell myself that I, well I can't stand the pain,
But when you hold me in your arms, I'll sing it once again.
I'll say come on, come on, come on, come on and take it!
Take it!
Take another little piece of my heart now, baby.
Oh, oh, break it!
Break another little bit of my heart now, darling, yeah,
Oh, oh, have a!
Have another little piece of my heart now, baby,
You know you got it, child, if it makes you feel good.
I need you to come on, come on, come on, come on and take it,
Take it!
Take another little piece of my heart now, baby!
Oh, oh, break it!
Break another little bit of my heart, now darling, yeah, c'mon now.
Oh, oh, have a
Have another little piece of my heart now, baby.
You know you got it — whoahhhhh!!
Take it!
Take it! Take another little piece of my heart now, baby,
Oh, oh, break it!
Break another little bit of my heart, now darling, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Oh, oh, have a
Have another little piece of my heart now, baby, hey,
You know you got it, child, if it makes you feel good.
TOM PETTY & THE HEARTBREAKERS lyrics - Big Weekend
There's some friends that I know
Living in this town and I've come far to see them.
Gonna track em' down.
They live in a brick house painted white and brown.
Left a tip for the maid and I packed up my guitar,
Dropped my key on the counter, rented a car.
Gonna hook up with em' later and go hit the bars.
I need a big weekend. Kick up the dust.
Yeah a big weekend.
If you don't run, you rust.
Well I may shake your hand but I won't know your name.
The joke in your language don't come out the same.
There's times when I'm down and there's nothing to blame.
I need a big weekend.
Kick up the dust.
Yeah a big weekend.
If you don't run, you rust.
I can work, I can travel, sleep anywhere,
Cross every border with nothing to declare.
You can look back babe, but it's best not to stare.
I need a big weekend.
Kick up the dust.
Yeah a big weekend.
If you don't run, you rust.
