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]

We can win the race

Take a chance, take a chance, God is on you side

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


MARIAH CAREY lyrics - It's Like That

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 *

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

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.
