Who needs love like that?
There's something going on, something not quite right
There something strange a-happening to me
There's someone at the door, I hear voices in my head
It seems things aren't the way they ought to be
Who needs love like that?
Who needs love like that?
It seemed so clear before I held my point of view
I kept my conversation never changed
And now it's all gone wrong and words are kinda hard
And nothing else around me looks the same
Who needs love like that?
Who needs love like that?
Love can turn you upside-down then leave you cold
It's plain to see you're losing all control
Who needs love like that?
Who needs love like that?
I'd like to understand, like to find out why
I can't remember all the lines I should say
But then I see your face and nothing really counts
Don't tell me now this feeling will stay
Who needs love like that?
Who needs love like that?
Love can turn you upside-down then leave you cold
It's plain to see you're losin' all control
Who needs love like that?
Who needs love like that?
Who needs love like that?
Who needs love like that?
Who needs love like that?

Oh l'amour
Broke my heart and now I'm aching for you
Mon amour
What's a boy in love supposed to do?
Looking for you,you were looking for me
Always reaching for you, you were too blind to see
Oh love of my heart why leave me alone?
I'm falling apart, no good on my own
Oh l'amour
Broke my heart and now I'm aching for you
Mon amour
What's a boy in love supposed to do?
Why throw it away? Why walk out on me?
I just live for the day, for the way it should be
There once was a time I had you here by my side
You said I wasn't your kind, only here for the ride
Oh l'amour
Broke my heart and now I'm aching for you
Mon amour
What's a boy in love supposed to do?
No emotional ties, you don't remember my name
I lay down and die, I'm only to blame
Oh love of my heart, it's up to you now
You tore me apart, I hurt inside-out
Oh l'amour
Broke my heart and now I'm aching for you
Mon amour
What's a boy in love supposed to do?
It's not the way you lead me by the hand into the bedroom
It's not the way you throw your clothes upon the bathroom floor
Been thinking about you, I just couldn't wait to see
Fling my arms around you as we fall in ecstasy
Ooh, sometimes
The truth is harder than the pain inside, yeah
Ooh, sometimes
It's the broken heart that decides
It's not the way that you caress me, toy with my affection
It's not my sense of emptiness you fill with your desire
Climb in bed beside me, we can lock the world outside
Touch me, satisfy me, warm your body next to mine
Ooh, sometimes
The truth is harder than the pain inside, yeah
Ooh, sometimes
It's the broken heart that decides
Woah
Ooh, sometimes
The truth is harder than the pain inside, yeah
Ooh, sometimes
It's the broken heart that decides
You are on one side and I am on the other
Are we divided?
You are on one side and I am on the other
Are we divided?
Why can't we live together?
There are no rights
This isn't your decision
We need to talk of changing things
But no one wants to listen
It doesn't have to be like that
It doesn't have to be like that
It doesn't have to be like that
A heart on the inside the same as any other
Are we divided?
Someone always has to suffer
We are broken
There's no one left to change it
Is that the way it has to be?
Why can't we rearrange it?
It doesn't have to be like that (one against one)
It doesn't have to be like that (one against one)
It doesn't have to be like that
Alava mo ja na me me limbaniango limbaniago
Zimbabwe abo naga na me me limbaniango limbaniago
Alava mo ja na me me limbaniango limbaniago
Zimbabwe abo naga na me me limbaniango limbaniago
What is the secret in calling me a brother?
Are we divided?
Always one against the other
We are strong now
Put down the ammunition
For what we know is right
Is gonna break down this division
It doesn't have to be like that (one against one)
It doesn't have to be like that (one against one)
It doesn't have to be like that (one against one, one against one)
It doesn't have to be like that (one against one, one against one)
It doesn't have to be like that
You are on one side and I am on the other
Are we divided?
I don't wanna look like some kind of fool
I don't wanna break my heart over you
I'm building a wall
Everyday it's getting higher
This time I won't end up another victim of love
You say that I could show some emotion
That I've been keeping secrets from you
But I can see through all your sweet talk
And all of your affections untrue
I'm gonna find you out
If I scream and I shout
You won't break down my protection
I don't wanna look like some kind of fool
I don't wanna break my heart over you
I'm building a wall
Everyday it's getting higher
This time I won't end up another victim of love
I'm gonna lock up what I'm feeling inside
Ain't no way you can break down the door
'Cause this time I've learned my lesson
You can take this declaration of war
Step right back
Put on your coat and your hat
Gonna avoid all complication
I don't wanna look like some kind of fool
I don't wanna break my heart over you
I'm building a wall
Everyday it's getting higher
This time I won't end up another victim of love
Call it new technology and they use it to burn and they show no concern
Work for their prosperity while the big wheels turn, now it's too late to learn
Don't upset the teacher
Though we know he lied to you
Don't upset the preacher
He's gonna close his eyes for you
And it's a shame
That you're so afraid
Just a worker waiting in the pouring rain
Putting back the pieces of a broken dream
Putting back the pieces of a broken dream
Father worked in industry, now the work has moved on and the factory's gone
See them sell your history where once you were strong and you used to belong
There was once a future
For a working man
There was once a lifetime
For a skillful hand
Yesterday
And it's a shame
That you're so afraid
Just a worker waiting in the pouring rain
Putting back the pieces of a broken dream
Putting back the pieces of a broken dream
Don't upset the teacher
Though we know he lied to you
Don't upset the preacher
He's gonna close his eyes for you
And it's a shame
That you're so afraid
Just a worker waiting in the pouring rain
Putting back the pieces of a broken dream
Putting back the pieces of a broken dream
Tempers fray so easily in desperate despair, is there anyone who cares?
Just another tragedy, just a personal affair in a room somewhere
There was once a future
For a working man
There was once a lifetime
For a skillful hand
Yesterday
And it's a shame
That you're so afraid
Just a worker waiting in the pouring rain
Putting back the pieces of a broken dream
Putting back the pieces of a broken dream (broken dream)
Putting back the pieces of a broken dream
Of a broken, of a broken dream
Putting back the pieces of a broken dream (broken dream)
Putting back the pieces of a broken dream
I can't believe what is happening to me
My head is spinning
The flowers and the trees are encapsulating me
And I go spinning
He was the baby of the class you know
He really didn't know that one and one was two
Two and two were four
He was the baby of the class you know
He really didn't know that, really didn't know that
Oh what a poor soul
Ooh, do we not sail on a ship of fools?
Ooh, why is life so precious and so cruel?
I close my eyes and I try to imagine
What you're dreaming
Why can't you see what you're doing to me?
My world is spinning
You were the baby of the class you know
You really didn't know that one and one was two
Two and two were four
You were the baby of the class
You were so young and so uncertain
Suffer little children
Oh what a poor soul
Ooh, do we not sail on a ship of fools?
Ooh, why is life so precious and so cruel?
He was the baby of the class you know
He really didn't know that one and one was two
Two and two were four
He was the baby of the class you know
He was so young and so uncertain
Suffer little children
Oh what a poor soul
Ooh, do we not sail on a ship of fools?
Ooh, why is life so precious and so cruel?
Ooh, do we not sail on a ship of fools?
Ooh, why is life so fragile and so cruel?
Ooh, do we not sail on a ship of fools?
Ooh, why is life so precious and so cruel?
How can I explain when there a few words I can choose?
How can I explain when words get broken?
Do you remember there was a time when people on the street were walking hand in hand in hand?
They used to talk about the weather, making plans together, days would last forever
Come to me, cover me, hold me
Together we'll break these chains of love
Don't give up, don't give up
Together with me and my baby, break the chains of love
Do you remember once upon a time when there were open doors?
An invitation to the world
We were falling in and out with lovers, looking out for others, our sisters and our brothers
Come to me, cover me, hold me
Together we'll break these chains of love
Don't give up, don't give up
Together with me and my baby, break the chains of love
Together we'll break these chains of love
How can I explain when there a few words I can choose?
How can I explain when words get broken?
We used to talk about the weather, making plans together, days would last forever
Come to me, cover me, hold me
Together we'll break these chains of love
Don't give up, don't give up
Together with me and my baby, break the chains of love
Together we'll break these chains of love
Don't give up, don't give up
Together with me and my baby, break the chains of love
Together we'll break these chains of love
I try to discover a little something to make me sweeter
Oh baby refrain from breaking my heart
I'm so in love with you
I'll be forever blue
That you gimme no reason why you make me work so hard
That you gimme no
That you gimme no
That you gimme no
That you gimme no
Soul, I hear you calling
Oh baby please
Give a little respect to me
And if I should falter would you open your arms to me?
We can make love not war and live at peace with our hearts
I'm so in love with you
I'll be forever blue
What religion or reason could drive a man to forsake his lover?
Don't you tell me no
Don't you tell me no
Don't you tell me no
Don't you tell me no
Soul, I hear you calling
Oh baby please
Give a little respect to me
I'm so in love with you
I'll be forever blue
That you gimme no reason, you know you make me work so hard
That you gimme no
That you gimme no
That you gimme no
That you gimme no
Soul, I hear you calling
Oh baby please (give a little respect)
Give a little respect to me
Soul, I hear you calling
Oh baby please (give a little respect)
Give a little respect to me
We'll be together again
I've been waiting for a long time
We're gonna be, we're gonna be together again
I'll be connected to the right line
We'll be together
And nobody ain't never gonna disconnect us
Or ever separate us
Or say to us you've got to
Stop!
Stand there where you are
Before you go too far
Before you make a fool out of love
Stop!
Don't jump before you look
Get hung upon a hook
Before you make a fool out of love
We'll be together again
I've been waiting for a long time
We're gonna be, we're gonna be together again
I'll be connected to the right line
We'll be together
And nobody ain't never gonna disconnect us
Or ever separate us
Or say to us you've got to
Stop!
Stand there where you are
Before you go too far
Before you make a fool out of love
Stop!
Don't jump before you look
Get hung upon a hook
Before you make a fool out of love
We'll be together
And nobody ain't never gonna disconnect us
Or ever separate us
Or say to us you've got to
Stop!
Stand there where you are
Before you go too far
Before you make a fool out of love
Stop!
Don't jump before you look
Get hung upon a hook
Before you make a fool out of love
Stop!
One rule for us, for you another
Do unto yourself as you see fit for your brother
Is that not within your realm of understanding?
A fifty-second capacity of mind, too demanding?
Woah, then poor unfortunate you
There are a myriad of things that you can do
Like pick up a pen and paper (pick up a pen and paper)
Go and talk to a friend (go and talk to a friend)
The history of the future (history of the future)
No violence or revenge
Your shame is never ending
Just one psychological drama after another
You are guilty (guilty)
And how you ever entered into this life
God only knows the infinite complexities of love
We all have the ability
Our freedom is fragile
We all laugh and we cry, don't we?
We all bleed and we smile
Your shame is never ending
Just one psychological drama after another
You are guilty (guilty, guilty)
And how you ever entered into this life
God only knows you're not to sacrifice the art of love
Your shame is never ending
Just one psychological drama after another
We are guilty (guilty, guilty)
And how we ever entered into this life
God only knows the infinite complexities of love
We are guilty (guilty, guilty)
And how we ever entered into this life
God only knows we're not to sacrifice the art of love
We are guilty (guilty, guilty)
And how we ever entered into this life
The Lord only knows the infinite complexities of love
You are guilty (guilty, guilty)
And how we ever entered into this life
God only knows the ultimate necessity of love
Don't ever let me take you for granted
You've got the finger on the pulse of my soul
Mmm, let me place a kiss in the small of your back
Love and protect you from the evils of this world
Mmm, baby don't ever leave me stranded
Who ever said that the streets were paved with gold?
Well I'm afraid that we're all sadly mistaken
There's nothing here 'til we have someone to hold
Mmm, I love you with all the joy of living
'Til the lights go down in New York City
It's a special love affair
There's magic in the air
You've gotta shake me down
Bring me 'round to my senses
'Til I'm lost and found
And you surround me with your senses
If love wasn't here would we reinvent it?
Mmm, take me down to the very root of my soul
Mmm, baby say it as if you really mean it
And feel the passion work its way up through your skin
Mmm, I love you with all the joy of living
'Til the lights go down in New York City
It's a special love affair
There's magic in the air
You've gotta shake me down
Bring me 'round to my senses
'Til I'm lost and found
And you surround me with your senses
Let me take you by the hand
And we can go and find a brand new world
Star light, star bright
Let me take you by the hand
And lead you to a safe place in this world
You've gotta shake me down
Bring me 'round to my senses
'Til I'm lost and found
And you surround me with your senses
Blue savannah song
Oh, blue savannah song
Somewhere 'cross the desert
Some time in the early hours
In a restless world
On the open highway
My home is where the heart is
Sweet to surrender to you only
I send my love to you
Blue savannah song
Oh, blue savannah song
Racing 'cross the desert
At a hundred miles an hour
To the orange side
Through the clouds and thunder
My home is where the heart is
Sweet to surrender to you only
I send my love to you
Well I'm on my way back and your love will bring me home (say that your love will bring me home)
I'm travelling fast and your love will bring me home (say your love will bring me home)
Will I discover that your love will bring me home? (dream away darlin')
Will I discover that your love will bring me home? (yeah)
Somewhere 'cross the desert
Some time in the early hours
To the orange side
Through the clouds and thunder
My home is where the heart is
Sweet to surrender to you only
I send my love to you
Home is where the heart is
Sweet to surrender to you only (sweet to surrender)
I send my love to you
Ooh, savannah song (sweet to surrender)
To you only
I send my love to you
Ooh, savannah song
To you only
To you only
We go waiting for the stars
To come showering down
From Moscow to Mars
Universe falling down
You've got look real hard
There's a fiery star hidden out there somewhere
Not the satellite of love but a laser shooting out it's shiny tongue there
God is love, god is war
TV preacher tell me more
Lord redeem me, am I pure?
Pure as pure as heaven
Sent you money, sent you flowers
Could worship you for hours
In whose hands are we anyway?
Go waiting for the stars
To come showering down
From Moscow to Mars
Universe falling down
You've got look real hard
Is it in your heart? Yeah it's in there somewhere
The power wrapped in your palm, show it to me, hit them with your wrath and thunder
What's your pleasure? Tell it to me
How did you know? Show your beauty
In you somewhere, somewhere in me
Pure as pure as heaven
Sent you money, sent you flowers
Could worship you for hours
In whose hands are we anyway?
Yee-hah
Rolling along through a rose-coloured glow
The city looks pretty in pink
Armageddon is here
Did you ever have a lover leave you for another
And take your love and kisses for granted?
Never to discover war is not the answer, leave you only disenchanted
God is love, god is war (God is love, god is war)
TV preacher tell me more (God is pure as pure as heaven)
Father help me, am I pure?
Pure as pure as heaven
Sent you money, sent you flowers (God is love, god is war)
Could worship you for hours (God is pure as pure as heaven)
In whose hands are we anyway?
Go waiting for the stars
To come showering down
From Moscow to Mars
Universe falling down
Go ahead with your dreaming
For what it's worth or you'll be stricken-bound kicking up dirt
For when it's dark, you never know what the night will bring
Go ahead with your scheming
And shop at home, you'll find treasure while cooking up bones
But the knife is sharp, you'd better watch that you don't cut your hands
And they covered up the sun
Until the birds had flown away
And the fishes in the sea
Had gone to sleep
And they covered up the sun
Until the birds had flown away
And the fishes in the sea
Had gone to sleep
Go ahead with your dreaming
For what it's worth or you'll be stricken-bound kicking up dirt
For when it's dark, you never know what the night will bring
Go ahead with your scheming
And shop at home, you'll find treasure while cooking up bones
But the knife is sharp, you'd better watch that you don't cut your hands
And they covered up the sun
Until the birds had flown away
And the fishes in the sea
Had gone to sleep
And they covered up the sun
Until the birds had flown away
And the fishes in the sea
Had gone to sleep
Holy Moses, our hearts are screaming
Souls are lifting, only dreaming
We'll be waiting, some are praying
For a time where no one's cheating
The sunlight rising over the horizon
Just a distant memory
The dawn chorus (dawn chorus)
Birds singing, bells ringing
In our hearts, in our minds
And they covered up the sun
Until the birds had flown away
And the fishes in the sea
Had gone to sleep
Woah oh oh oh, woah oh oh oh
Woah oh oh oh, woah oh oh oh
Woah oh oh oh, woah oh oh oh
I'm crazy flowing over with ideas
A thousand ways to woo a lover so sincere
Love and hate, what a beautiful combination
Sending shivers up and down my spine
For every Casanova that appears
My sense of hesitation disappears
Love and hate, what a beautiful combination
Sending shivers up and down my spine
And the lovers that you sent for me
Didn't come with any satisfaction guarantee
So I return them to the sender
And the note attached will read
How I love to hate you
I love to hate you
I love to hate you
I love to hate you
Oh, you really still expect me to believe
Every single letter I receive
Sorry you, what a shameful situation
Sending shivers up and down my spine
Ooh, I like to read a murder mystery
I like to know the killer isn't me
Love and hate, what a beautiful combination
Sending shivers, make me quiver
Feel it sliver up and down my spine
And the lovers that you sent for me
Didn't come with any satisfaction guarantee
So I return them to the sender
And the note attached will read
How I love to hate you
I love to hate you
I love to hate you
I love to hate you
And the lovers that you sent for me
Didn't come with any satisfaction guarantee
So I return them to the sender
And the note attached will read
How I love to hate you
I love to hate you
And the lovers that you sent for me
Didn't come with any satisfaction guarantee
So I return them to the sender
And the note attached will read
How I love to hate you
I love to hate you
I love to hate you
I love to hate you
I love to hate you
I love to hate you
Wandering through the back roads
And the rain comes rushing down
To resolve your love
For this man in his twenties
Am I right?
Am I wrong?
Or am I just dreaming?
Climbing up the back stairs
There's a chill wind in the air
I wrap up from the cold
Pull the blind in the window
Who was here?
Was it you?
Or am I just dreaming?
Look at all the lonely people
Walking miles around the town
I can see the old cathedral
But I have to play it down
Boats along the river
Setting up their sails
And life carries on as normal
Although you're not around
Waiting at the bus stop
Laughing off the
Shaking their umbrellas
'Til it starts again
Flowers in the water
Floating off downstream
Paper in the gutter
Blowing in the breeze
Am I right?
Am I wrong?
Or am I just dreaming?
Look at all the lonely people
Walking miles around the town
I can see the old cathedral
But I have to play it down
Boats along the river
Setting up their sails

For this man in his twenties
Am I right?
Am I wrong?
Or am I just dreaming?
Never had a point of view
'Cause my mind was always someone else's mind
I never had to tell a lie
'Cause I left the choices up to them
Don't know why, but I did
Oh, I want life
Life wants me
To breathe in its love
Take me I'm yours
Now I'm coming up for air
I'm gonna live my time for the rest of my life
Then I'll be coming back for more
I never had to call the tune
'Cause I always drifted with the tide of the moon
I would go out every night
Looking for someone to treat me right
Not a chance, not a hope in this world (world)
Oh, I want life
Life wants me
To breathe in its love
Take me I'm yours (take me)
Now I'm coming up for air (I'm yours)
I'm gonna live my time for the rest of my life
Then I'll be coming back for more
Ooh, ooh
Take me I'm yours (take me)
Now I'm coming up for air (I'm yours)
I'm gonna live my time for the rest of my life
Then I'll be coming back for more

If you change your mind, I'm the first in line
Honey I'm still free, take a chance on me

As long as we're together
Listen to some music, maybe just talking
Get to know you better
'Cause you know I've got so much that I wanna do
When I dream I'm alone with you, it's magic!
You wanted to leave me there, afraid of a love affair
But I think you know, that I can't let go
If you change your mind, I'm the first in line
Honey I'm still free, take a chance on me
If you need me, let me know, and I'll be around

No I can't let go, 'cause I love you so
Hopping in

You won't be grabbed, if you're feeling horny
Well, you've passes so you got to know this precious property
I don't know the lads, so call me MC K
Nobody sits, understand me clearly
However hard he try, could he never own me
We all fit nice and just move freely
Special K, what he says all said carefully
Me not sit all along and just wait by phone
Not call me 'cause me never, never home ya
Machinegun as we get the wrong one
Master Mark, master Paul, mister Luke and John
If we like what we see we chance a situation
Nothing don't pay nothing, maybe see what follow on
What a Jill may do if the right man come?
Hey reggae boat, come we just have a little fun!
Go now!
Baba-ba-ba-ba, baba-baba-ba-baba
Honey I'm still free, take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best and it ain't no lie

Gonna do my very best and it ain't no lie
If you put me to the test, if you let me try
Open your eyes, I see your eyes are open
Wear no disguise for me, come into the open
When it's cold outside, am I here in vain?
Hold on to the night, there will be no shame
Always
I wanna be with you
And make believe with you
And live in harmony, harmony

Oh love
For the first time in my life I'm up to run away
It's not a choice that I made easily
It's not that I'm ashamed to face the light of day
It's really just a case of self-delusion
And I know it ain't easy
I know it ain't easy
I know it ain't easy
To see the truth
So run the sun, here's one for the road
And may god's love go with you
My tears are starting to show
Whoa
That I should fall from grace implies a twist of fate
But I'm open to the joys and woes of passion
And who shall take the wheel when it's time for overkill?
There's no release when destiny is calling
And I know it ain't easy
I know it ain't easy
I know it ain't easy
To see the truth
So run the sun, here's one for the road
And may God's love go with you
My tears are starting to show
Whoa
So run to the sun, here's one for the road
Though I'll never be lonely
Are you so high above me?
Whoa
Run to the sun
Run to the sun
Run to the sun
And I know it ain't easy
Somebody reach me
Willing to teach me
So run to the sun, here's one for the road
And may god's love go with you
My tears are starting to show
Whoa
I'll run to the sun, here's one for the road
Though I'll never be lonely
Are you so high above me?
Whoa
So run to the sun, here's one for the road
And may god's love go with you
My tears are starting to show
Whoa
So run to the sun, here's one for the road
Though I'll never be lonely
Are you so high above me?
Whoa
If they'd ever have told me that I'd find true love in every way
Would I cry 'til tomorrow? Would I keep the non-believers away?
Remember that late night last September when you held me in your arms so tight?
I was feeling kind of low, my heart was blue, I was empty 'til you came
But oh what a Saturday night
Things were going right
As right as they'd ever been
I know that you love me
If they'd ever have told me that I'd find true love in every way
Would I cry 'til tomorrow? Would I keep the non-believers away?
Was I shy? Was I good? With this foolish heart?
Did I try to deny we would fall apart?
Like a knight in shining armor you came over to save me, what a bolt out of the blue
Just one look into those eyes you had me fallen completely head over heels in love with you
But oh what a Saturday night
Things were going right
As right as they'd ever been
I know that you love me
If they'd ever have told me that I'd find true love in every way
Would I cry 'til tomorrow? Would I keep the non-believers away?
Was I shy? Was I good? With this foolish heart?
Did I try to deny we would fall apart?
And you saw me, I was falling head over heels in love with you
Saturday night
Things were going right
As right as they'd ever been
I know that you love me
If they'd ever have told me that I'd find true love in every way
Would I cry 'til tomorrow? Would I keep the non-believers away?
Was I shy? Was I good? With this foolish heart?
Did I try to deny we would fall apart?
If they'd ever have told me that I'd find true love in every way
Would I cry 'til tomorrow? Would I keep the non-believers away?
Was I shy? Was I good? With this foolish heart?
Did I try to deny we would fall
Did I try to deny we would fall a
Did I try to deny we would fall apart?
Tempered by greed, tall buildings breathe
Give a sigh of relief when it's night
Stirring from sleep, we night owls creep
Is there any sign of life under this stone?
Star chime, hollow and true
Love child
Weep for me, and I will cast your wheels in motion
Walk with me the inner reaches of emotion
Sheltered by creed, one piled on one
Do you have a little room for one small one?
Light shine, wild and free
Sunrise
Weep for me, and I will set your wheels in motion
Keep with me, like a roller on the ocean
Stand by me, and I will fill you with devotion
Walk with me the inner reaches of emotion
Here we are, in the sunshine
Everything is fine
Here we are, in the sunshine
Everything is fine
Weep for me, and the sands of time will fill the ocean
Keep with me, 'till rays of sunshine fill the ocean
Walk with me the inner reaches of emotion
Stand by me, and I will fill you with devotion
Weep for me, and the sands of time will fill the ocean
Keep with me, like a roller on the ocean
Stand by me, and I will fill you with devotion
Walk with me the inner reaches of emotion
The sands of time will fill the ocean
Keep with me, and rays of sunshine will fill the ocean
Walk with me, the inner reaches of emotion
Don't know what you've got 'til it's gone
A hint of a scent then it's gone
Look at the state of you, you're all fingers and thumbs
So who's your latest flame?
Driving 'em wild in the fast lane?
Won't say I told you so, but the boy has no shame
Once when my hands were full
We were double or quits then some
Nothing at all to show for a love so precious
Gone and blown it all
How can you say, 'it doesn't matter much to me'? A dumb mistake
Too much to pay
A shattered heart in love's debris
Gone and blown it all
And then you say, 'this can't be happening to me'
A dumb mistake
Too much to pay
A shattered heart in love's debris
Don't know what you've got 'til it's gone
The thrill of the chase then it's gone
Only the hurt to prove that it ever went on
And life is a wonderful thing
When you're humming the words to a love song
Do what you wanna do, be who you want to be
When I'm in your arms I'm strong
There's nowhere I'd rather be
We shine for liberty, life and the pursuit of pleasure
Gone and blown it all
How can you say, 'it doesn't matter much to me'?
A dumb mistake
Too much to pay
A shattered heart in love's debris
Gone and blown it all
And then you say, 'this can't be happening to me'
A dumb mistake
Too much to pay
A shattered heart in love's debris
And how the days have flown too few and fast
They said it wasn't meant to last
A dumb mistake
Too much to pay
A shattered heart in love's debris
Past five in the morning, feeling worse for the weather it seems
But what a feeling, what an endless night this has been
And we can't stay here, 'cause we won't be forever young
We'll have to go down before innocence is lost
And I dream you're with me
You hold me sweetly
And rock me gently to sleep
In your arms
Woah, woah
I've been getting used to all the crying and the games that you play
And if I carry on I'm going to end up with a hole in my head
And there's more to life than thrills and spills and dollar bills
We'll have to get through, some way and somehow
And I dream you're with me
You hold me sweetly
And rock me gently to sleep
In your arms
And I dream you're with me
You hold me sweetly
And rock me gently to sleep
In your arms
Woah, woah
The deal is on the rise again
The ship comes in to shore
You've been away to somewhere
But life goes on no less
Through the foreign ocean
Underneath the sea
And walls come tumbling down
We'll be forever calm
And you'll be here in my arms
I'll keep you away from harm
I thought about you twice just then
You get me every time
Keeps coming out of nowhere
It cannot be defined
Your colours are magnificent
From magenta to bright blue
And walls come tumbling down
We'll be forever calm
And you'll be here in my arms
I'll keep you away from harm
Through the foreign ocean
Underneath the sea
And walls come tumbling down
We'll be forever calm
And you'll be here in my arms
I'll keep you away from harm
My eyes are closed
And I've nothing more to say
But I was so willing to give it all away
And what a show
I've loved you all I could
When will I see you, is nothing understood?
You thought I was stupid, but now I stop at nothing (I stop at nothing)
I thought you were better but love's gonna take a man
Yeah, love's gonna take a man
Don't say your love is killing me
You know how much it means to me
I too have feelings deep inside
But would not hurt your foolish pride
Heaven only knows
At your every turn a scandal
But how does it suit you
When it's all too much to cope with?
You thought I was nothing before you stepped into my life
I thought you were clever, but love's gonna take a man
And you haven't got it in you
Don't say your love is killing me
You know how much it means to me
I too have feelings deep inside
But would not hurt your foolish pride
Don't say your love is killing me
You know how much it means to me
I too have feelings deep inside
But would not hurt your foolish pride
Don't say your love is killing me
You know how much it means to me
I too have feelings deep inside
But would not hurt your foolish pride
What is there to do? Only rain
Falling down from the sky
Only me and you, fair and plain
Nothing lost and nothing gained
Only the love, nothing more, nothing less comes between us
Temperature's rising, my passion is burning inside
My world in light saving all as one
A love that no one can deny
My one true light, same for everyone
A love we dare you to defy
Only rain
I won't settle for less, but no regrets
See myself in your own reflection (See myself in your reflection)
Something in your eyes that tells me why
I'm a fool for your warm affection (I'm a fool for your affection)
Only the love, nothing more, nothing less comes between us
Temperature's rising, my passion is burning inside
My world in light saving all as one
A love that no one can deny
My one true light, same for everyone
A love we dare you to defy
Only rain
You are my, my one true, my world in light
You are my, my one true, my world in light
Freedom will come
To real love
Heaven will come
For real love
Do-Wah, Do-Wah, Do-Wah
Run away when it hurts, from the things that we do
Do-Wah, Do-Wah, Do-Wah
Don't know why we cry, run away from the truth
Children of new men
Colours of human kind, in shadow
Good is your loving
Growing and sharing storms
Believe
You've got to believe
Calling the day freedom will come
And we will arise to real love
Day by day, heaven will come
And we'll survive for real love
Cherish the union, the light in a stranger's eyes
Your guardian angel will make all the wrong things right
Believe
You've got to believe
Do-Wah, Do-Wah, Do-Wah
Do-Wah, Do-Wah, Do-Wah
Do-Wah, Do-Wah, Do-Wah
Do-Wah, Do-Wah, Do-Wah
Calling the day freedom will come
And we will arise to real love
Day by day, heaven will come
And we'll survive for real love
Calling the day freedom will come
And touch the sky in heaven above
Day by day, heaven will come
And we'll survive for real love
Calling the day freedom will come
And touch the sky in heaven above
Day by day, heaven will come
And we'll survive for real love
Calling the day freedom will come
And touch the sky in heaven above
Day by day, heaven will come
And we'll survive for real love
All of a sudden it's gone
Too late to wish a friend farewell
Heard the sea in a shell
Said we would meet in other worlds
See how the moon, she cries
Cool how the tears fill up the sky as snow
Gotta touch the sky
Hold you head in my hand
A taste, a wish, a parting sigh
Takes the boat across the water
Heaves a gentle sigh
See how the moon, she cries
Cool how the tears fill up the sky as snow
Gotta touch the sky
All of a sudden it's gone
Too late to wish a friend farewell
Heard the sea in a shell
Said we would meet in other worlds
See how the moon, she cries
Cool how the tears fill up the sky as snow
Gotta touch the sky
Gotta touch the sky
Gotta touch the sky
Climbing up on Solsbury Hill
I could see the city light
Wind was blowing, time stood still
Eagle flew out of the night
He was something to observe
Came in close, I heard a voice
Standing stretching every nerve
Had to listen had no choice
I did not believe the information
Just had to trust imagination
My heart going boom boom boom
'Son' he said 'Grab your things, I've come to take you home'
To keepin' silence I resigned
My friends would think I was a nut
Turning water into wine
Open doors would soon be shut
So I went from day to day
Although my life was in a rut
'Till I thought of what I'd say
Which connection I should cut
I was feeling part of the scenery
I walked right out of the machinery
My heart going boom boom boom
'Hey' he said 'Grab your things, I've come to take you home'
When illusion spin her net
I'm never where I wanna be
And liberty she pirouette
When I think that I am free
Watched by empty silhouettes
Who close their eyes but still can see
No one taught them etiquette
I will show another me
Today I don't need a replacement
I'll tell them what the smile on my face meant
My heart going boom boom boom
'Hey' I said 'You can keep my things, they've come to take me home'
You've done it all, you've broken every code
And pulled the rebel to the floor
You've spoilt the game, no matter what you say
For only metal, what a bore
Blue eyes, blue eyes
How come you tell so many lies?
Come up and see me, make me smile
Or do what you want, running wild
There's nothing left, all gone and run away
Maybe you'll tarry for a while
It's just a test, a game for us to play
Win or lose, it's hard to smile
Resist, resist
It's from yourself you've got to hide
Come up and see me, make me smile
Or do what you want, running wild
There ain't no more, you've taken everything
From my believe in Mother Earth
Can you ignore my faith in everything
'Cause I know what faith is and what it's worth
Away, away
And don't say maybe you'll try
To come up and see me, make me smile
Or do what you want, running wild
Ooh la la la
Ooh la la la aah
Come up and see me, make me smile
Or do what you want, running wild
Come up and see me, make me smile
Or do what you want, running wild
Twenty-seven times I paint the city in lights
Now I changed my mind
I was living fast now I'm running on empty
And I feel yeh I feel
You're gonna go, let me go
Breathe, and I breathe
It's bitter without you I can't live without you
And I'm in love with you
Stood the test of time
Though I treated you rough you were always kind
I let my head rule my heart now I'm feeling so lonely
And I feel it's the deal
You're letting me go gonna go
Breathe and I breathe
Hollow without you I can't live without you
And I'm in love with you
Breathe I believe
Empty without you I can't live without you
And I'm in love with you
Breathe, and I breathe
It's bitter without you I can't live without you
And I'm in love with you
Breathe I believe
Empty without you I can't live without you
And I'm in love with you
Breathe I believe
I can't live without you I can't live with you
And I'm in love with you
(Don't say you love me)
(Strange things that make me die)
(Don't say you love me)
(Strange things that make me die)
I don't belong I'm still around won't steal you like a radio
I'm still around I won't be long gonna treat you like an angel
But don't say you love me
Strange things that make me die
Dance 'till we're high you're shy
Don't say you'll cry
I told you lies I'm still around won't steal your act my angel
I won't be long it's still your round or serialize the radio
But don't say you love me
Strange things that make me die
Dance 'till we're high you're shy
Don't say (don't say) you'll cry
(What do you say?)
(What do you say?)
Don't go on I see your eyes I screw you around my angel
You're still my love it's in your eyes our song is on the radio
But don't say you love me (what do you say?)
Strange things that make me die
Dance 'till we're high you're shy
Don't say you'll cry
Don't say you love me
Don't say you'll cry I'm high
Don't say you'll cry
How many dreams am I looking for in your eyes, in your eyes
Ooh baby bet it seems that you're reaching down, all alone, on your own
Dreams are emotion baby, you know you gotta try
How am I supposed to know what's in your head, what's on your mind
I'm searching for your love that's in your heart I need it
Here I go impossible again
Should I hold you close to keep the night from ending
I know I put you on a pedestal in my eyes, in my eyes
I don't like it when you put me down 'cause it hurts, yeah it hurts
Win some and lose some baby, you know you gotta try
I feel it my heart and in my soul and through my veins
Falling from my lips three little words 'I love you'
Here I go impossible again
Should I hold you close to keep the night from ending
Dive into the ocean baby you know you gotta try
How am I supposed to know what's in your head, what's on your mind
I'm searching for your love that's in your heart I need it
Here I go impossible again
Should I hold you close to keep the night from ending
Here I go impossible again
Should I hold you close to keep the night from ending
Come and hold me and dissolve me
But I never do what I am told to
You enthuse me don't abuse me
At the worst of times you'd never lose me
There are times when I could fall in love with you
There are times when I would scream till I was blue
Don't get me wrong I can be strong
Then I could fall in love with you
Don't let me down take me to task
When I could fall in love with you
Like a child, like a child
I was dreaming we were sleeping
And you held me tight to keep believing
Don't upset me, I won't let you
Fall into a space that's empty
There are times when I could fall in love with you
There are times when I would scream till I was blue
Don't get me wrong, I can be strong
Then I would fall in love with you
Don't let me down, take me to task
When I could fall in love with you
Like a child, like a child
There are times when I could fall in love with you
There are times when I would scream till I was blue
Don't get me wrong, I can be strong
Then I would fall in love with you
Don't let me down, take me to task
When I would fall in love with you
Like a child, like a child
Don't get me wrong, I can be strong
Then I would fall in love with you
Don't let me down, take me to task
When I would fall in love with you
Like a child, like a child
Blinded by the vision
I turn and face my back to the wall
Cause I'm locked up in a rhythm
The prism of a big glitter ball
Wrapped around your finger
I'm caught up in the middle with you baby
With some laughter and drinking
There's very little else I can do
Then I go and drop a bombshell upon you
I been making eyes at somebody else
You're no longer number one
She loves the night and all that glitters
Her name in lights around the city
Don't you mess your life up Sunday girl
You rushing down like a roller-coaster
Night on the town gonna make the most of
We can dance till Sunday morning girl
You pushing and a shoving me
Baby like a bitch to the wall
But you're driving me crazy
Right up to fever pitch I could fall
When you shine down your love-light
I'm getting blinded by the sight and sound
She loves the night and all that glitters
Her name in lights around the city
Don't you mess your life up Sunday girl
Then I go and drop a bombshell upon you
I been making eyes at somebody baby
You're no longer number one
She loves the night and all that glitters
Her name in lights around the city
Don't you mess your life up Sunday girl
You rushing down like a roller-coaster
Night on the town gonna make the most of
We can dance till Sunday morning
We can dance till Sunday morning
We can dance till Sunday morning girl
I'm just saying I want my mummy back
Lost her to the drink but her soul's intact
Mama said to me be proud of who you are
She saw Jesus in the eyes of a broken man
Sail away I am learning my lesson
Mama sends her love and Godspeed you come home
One little white lie
Was enough to conceal my goodbye
Then I stole away kissed her farewell
And wished her the best for her life
Then I stole away woah like a thief in the night
I'm just saying not behind daddy's back
He takes care of her in his overtime
He's no saint I know as he goes around the town
Watch him cry himself to sleep, he's my daddy
Sail away, I will go it alone now
Leave my past behind to seek fortune and fame
One little white lie
Was enough to conceal my goodbye
Then I stole away kissed her farewell
And wished her the best for her life
Then I stole away woah like a thief in the night
Sail away, there's a storm in a teacup
Mama sends her love and Godspeed you come home
One little white lie
Was enough to conceal my goodbye
Then I stole away kissed her farewell
And wished her the best for her life
Then I stole away woah like a thief in the night
One little white lie
Was enough to conceal my goodbye
Then I stole away like a prodigal son
And wished her the best for her life
Then I stole away woah like a thief in the night
