Better Than Love

Image
Every second is a lifetime And every minute more brings you closer to God And you see nothing but the red lights You let your body burn like never before. And it feels better than love. Yeah it feels better than love. Yeah it feels better than love. Turn away, turn away, close your eyes, you can runaway. It's not enough. Another second in the sunshine, A decade in the dark taking part in a dream. Have you forgotten what she looks like? Or do you only see what you want to believe? Does it feel better than love? Does it feel better than love? Turn away, turn away, close your eyes, you can runaway. It's not enough. I see the lights through the rain, oh tonight, but they never change. So what is love? Does it feel better than love? Does it feel better than love? Turn away, turn away, close your eyes, you can runaway. It's not enough. I see the lights through the rain, oh tonight, but they never change. So what is love?

God Gave Me You

Image
I’ve been a walking heartache I’ve made a mess of me The person that I’ve been lately Ain’t who I wanna be But you stay here right beside me Watch as the storm goes through And I need you God gave me you for the ups and downs God gave me you for the days of doubt For when I think I’ve lost my way There are no words here left to say, it’s true God gave me you There’s more here than what were seeing A divine conspiracy That you, an angel lovely Could somehow fall for me You’ll always be love’s great martyr Ill be the flattered fool And I need you God gave me you for the ups and downs God gave me you for the days of doubt For when I think I’ve lost my way There are no words here left to say, it’s true God gave me you On my own I’m only Half of what I could be I can’t do without you We are stitched together And what love has tethered I pray we never undo God gave me you for the ups and downs God gave me you for the days of doubt God gave me you for the ups and downs God gave me you for the...

I don't want to give you up I don't want to hold you up I don't want ambiguous I just know that I've had enough I want you to travel with me Let loose and let your mind go free...Show you things that you've never seen You just go to go with me Ohhh [Chorus] Your love is so good that I want to show you Don't make me responsible, for something you that can't find Ohhh Your loving is so good, so good, the closer I want it, I want it Into me I want it, I want it, Leave it here I want to get closer to you baby Experience...

This Too Shall Pass

Image
You know you can't keep lettin' it get you down And you can't keep draggin' that dead weight around. If there ain't all that much to lug around, Better run like hell when you hit the ground. When the morning comes. When the morning comes. You can't stop these kids from dancin'. Why would you want to? Especially when yor already gettin' yours. 'Cause if your mind don't move and your knees don't bend, well don't go blamin' the kids again. When the morning comes. When the morning comes. When the morning comes. When the morning comes. When the morning comes. When the morning comes. Let it go, this too shall pass. Let it go, this too shall pass. Let it go, this too shall pass. (You know you can't keep lettin' it get you down. No, you can't keep lettin' it get you down.) Let it go, this too shall pass. (You know you can't keep lettin' it get you down. No, you can't keep lettin' it get you down.) Hey! Let it g...

You

Image
The bluest skies don't seem so blue And the stars seem to be a little dimmer too Now that you're around you put 'em all to shame Let me break it down cause what I'm trying to say is No one gets me like you when you kiss me Girl you rock me harder than some downtown band I thought I knew what love was but I didn't have a clue I never found anything that makes me feel like I do about you Gotta whole new direction it seems these days I used to rush off to work and get home late but Now I show up late and rush back home My priorities are different, I can't leave you alone No one gets me like you when you kiss me Girl you rock me harder than some downtown band I thought I knew what love was but I didn't have a clue I never found anything that makes me feel like I do about you Girl if you ever get to guessing if I'm thinking about you Just remember that No one gets me like you when you kiss me Girl you rock me harder than some downtown band I thought I knew wh...

Run Away

Image
Follow me down through the cotton fields Moon shadow shine bright the way you will Lead us down a road where no one goes We can run away Come take my hand while I’m waiting here Get away from it all and find what’s real If we don’t get out now the chance won’t reappear We can run away [Chorus] Hold me tight and don’t let go Sweet and soft no one will know We can run away I buried my heart in a willow tree You came along, gave it back to me Now we’re creatures of the night, we set each other free Run away with me [Chorus] Hold me tight and don’t let go Sweet and soft no one will know We can run away Lay with me down by the riverside Stars in the sky shining in your eyes We won’t make a sound no one will be around We can run away [Chorus] Hold me tight and don’t let go Sweet and soft no one will know We can run away

If You're Going Through Hell

Image
Well you know those times when you feel like There's a sign there on your back That says I don't mind if you kick me, seems like everybody has Things go from bad to worse You think it can't get worse than that And then they do You step off the straight and narrow And you don't know where you are Used the needle of your compass, to sew up your broken heart Ask directions from a genie in a bottle of jim beam And she lies to you That's when you learn the truth [Chorus] If you're goin' through hell keep on going Don't slow down if you're scared don't show it You might get out before the devil even knows you're there I've been deep down in that darkness I've been down to my last match Felt a hundred different deamons breathin' fire down my back And I knew that if I stumbled I'd fall right into the trap That they were layin' But the good news is there's angels everywhere out on the street Holdin' out a hand to pull you b...

Keep Me In Mind

Image
1... 2... 3 This is gonna be funky How come all the pretty girls like you are taken baby I've been looking for someone like you to save me Life's to easy to be so damn complicated Take your time and I'll be waitin' Chorus: Keep me in mind Somewhere down the road you might get lonely Keep me in mind In a place someday that you will love me only I think about you somedays And the way I would lay and waste a day after day with you We always go our separate ways But no-one can love you baby the way I do Chorus: Keep me in mind Somewhere down the road you might get lonely Keep me in mind In a place someday that you will love me only Bridge: Well the world can be real tough Find shelter in me If there's no-one else to love Keep me in mind If ever you wanted me, I'll be your man I'd be a fool to let you go with someone else Whatever you want from me, I'll be your man I'd give it all up just to have you for myself Chorus: Keep me in mind Somewhere down the r...

Holding Out For A Hero

Image
Where have all the good men gone And where are all the gods? Where's the street-wise Hercules To fight the rising odds? Isn't there a white knight upon a fiery steed? Late at night I toss and turn and I dream of what I need [Chorus:] I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night He's gotta be strong And he's gotta be fast And he's gotta be larger than life Larger than life Somewhere after midnight In my wildest fantasy Somewhere just beyond my reach There's someone reaching back for me Racing on the thunder and rising with the heat Isn’t there a superman to sweep me off my feet I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night He's gotta be strong And he's gotta be fast And he's gotta be larger than life Up where the mountains meet the heavens above Out where the lightning splits the sea I would swear that there's someone somewhere Watching me Through the wind and the chill and the rain And th...

When Love Gets A Hold Of You

Image
It's all around you now, but you don't know it It's tugging at your heart, but you don't show it It's just a matter of time It's gonna hit you right between the eyes You'll wake up in the middle of the night I'll be the only thing on your mind Won't be able to shake it loose When love gets a hold of you Before you have your first cup of coffee You're gonna pick up the phone and call me Won't believe what you say and do When love gets a hold of you Cause it's gonna be written all over your face All your friends gonna tell you how much you've changed Feeling things that you can't deny Going crazy and you don't know why You'll wake up in the middle of the night I'll be the only thing on your mind Won't be able to shake it loose When love gets a hold of you Before you have your first cup of coffee You're gonna pick up the phone and call me Won't believe what you say and do When love gets a hold of you It gets a...

Kiss Me Again

Image
You got me where you want me But I ain't all there. My head is gone, my brain is fried and I'm standing right here You can touch me if you want, oh-oh I don't really care But I have ruined everything that I've ever loved And I guess we have to play The cards we've been dealt And I guess I've got nothing But whatever happens happens 'Cause my life is falling apart Or is it getting better, I don't know Well you can kiss me again if you want I don't mind Well you can kiss me again if you want Oh that'd be fine

Barton Hollow

Image
I'm a dead man walking here That's the least of all my fears Ooh underneath the water It's not Alabama clay Gives my trembling hands away Ooh Please forgive me father Ain't going back to Barton Hollow Devil gonna follow me e'er I go Won't do me no good washing in the river Can't no preacher man save my soul Did that full moon force my hand? Or that unmarked hundred grand? Ooh underneath the water Ooh Please forgive me father Miles and miles in my bare feet Still can't lay me down to sleep If I die before I wake I know the Lord my soul won't take, Ooh I'm a dead man walking I'm a dead man walking here Keep walking and running and running for miles Keep walking and running and running for miles Keep walking and running and running for miles, Woahh Ain't going back to Barton Hollow Devil gonna follow me e'er I go Won't do me no good washing in the river Can't no preacher man save my soul

Midnight City

Image
Waiting in a car Waiting for a ride in the dark The night city grows Look and see her eyes, they glow Waiting in a car Waiting for a ride in the dark Drinking in the lounge Following the neon signs Waiting for a roar Looking at the mutating skyline The city is my church It wraps me in the sparkling twilight Waiting in a car Waiting for the right time Waiting in a car Waiting for the right time Waiting in a car Waiting for the right time Waiting in a car Waiting for the right time Waiting in a car Waiting for a ride in the dark

Wasted Days And Wasted Nights

Image
Wasted days and wasted nights I have left for you Behind For you don't belong to me Your heart belongs to someone else Why should I keep loving you, When I know that you're not true And why should I call your name When you're the blame for making me blue Don't you remember the day That you went away and left me I was so lonely Prayed for you only, my love Why should I keep loving you When I know that you're not true And why should I call your name When you're the blame for making me blue Don't you remember the day That you went away and left me I was so lonely Prayed for you only, my love Why should I keep loving you When I know that you're not true And why should I call your name When you're the blame for making me blue

Got a baby girl sleeping in my bedroom And her mama laughing in my arms There's the sound of rain on the rooftop And the game's about to start I don't really know how I got here But I'm sure glad that I did And it's crazy to think that one little thing Could've changed all of it Maybe it didn't turn out like I planned Maybe that's why I'm such, such a lucky man For every stoplight I didn't make Every chance I did or I didn't take All the nights I went too far All the girls that broke my heart All the doors that I had to close All the things I knew but I didn't know Thank God for all I missed 'Cause it led me here to this Like the girl that I loved in high school Who said she could do better Or that college I wanted to go to 'Til I got that letter All the fights and the tears and the heartache I thought I'd never get through And the moment I almost gave up All lead me here to you I didn't understand it way back when But sit...

Shelter

I find shelter in this way Under cover, hide away Can you hear when I say I have never felt this way Maybe I had said something that was wrong Can I make it better with the lights turned on Maybe I had said something that was wrong Can I make it better with the lights turned on Could I be, was I there It felt so crystal in the air I still want to drown whenever you leave Please teach me gently how to breathe And I'll cross oceans like never before So you can feel the way I feel it too And I'll mirror images back at you So you can see the way I feel it too Maybe I had said something that was wrong Can I make it better with the lights turned on Maybe I had said something that was wrong Can I make it better with the lights turned on Maybe I had said something that was wrong Can I make it better with the lights turned on Maybe I had said something that was wrong Can I make it better with the lights turned on Maybe I had said something that was wrong Can I make it better with the li...

Forever can never be long enough for me To feel like I've had long enough with you Forget the world now we won't let them see But there's one thing left to do Now that the weight has lifted Love has surely shifted my way Marry Me Today and every day Marry Me If I ever get the nerve to say "Hello" in this cafe Say you will Mm-hmm Say you will Mm-hmm Together can never be close enough for me Feel like I am close enough to you You wear white and I'll wear out the words I love you And you're beautiful Now that the wait is over And love and has finally shown her my way Marry me Today and every day Marry me If I ever get the nerve to say "Hello" in this cafe Say you will Mm-hmm Say you will Mm-hmm Promise me You'll always be Happy by my side I promise to Sing to you When all the music dies And marry me Today and everyday Marry me If I ever get the nerve to say "Hello" in this cafe Say you will Mm-hmm Say you will Marry me Mm-hmm

Fear

Image
Morning smiles Like the face of a newborn child Innocent unknowing Winter's end Promises of a long lost friend Speaks to me of comfort But I fear I have nothing to give I have so much to lose Here in this lonely place Tangled up in our embrace There's nothing I'd like Better than to fall But I fear I have nothing to give Wind in time Rapes the flower trembling on the vine Nothing yields to shelter it From above They say temptation will destroy our love The never ending hunger But I fear I have nothing to give I have so much to lose Here in this lonely place Tangled up in our embrace There's nothing I'd like Better than to fall But I fear I have nothing to give I have so much to lose I have nothing to give We have so much to lose

[verse 1:] I don't believe that we were put together not to be together And I don't believe there's anyone out there that can love me better I don't believe that you know how much I miss seeing your pretty smile. Of course we had our ups and downs But I gotta have you around me cause [chorus:] I feel it all over my body (I feel it all over my body) I dream about you when I sleep (yea) You're the one for me (you're the one) You're the one for me (you're the one) All the signs say that Ever since the day that we laid eyes on each other baby You're the one for me (you're the one) You're the one for me (hey) [verse 2:] I don't believe that you know how much I melt every time I smell your scent boy And I don't believe (I don't believe) I got myself in this predicament I'm sorry (I'm so sorry) For everything I ever did wrong I'm sorry (I'm so sorry) And I'm begging you, begging you, begging ...

Love Song

Head under water And they tell me to breathe easy for a while The breathing gets harder, even I know that Made room for me but it's too soon to see If I'm happy in your hands I'm unusually hard to hold on to Blank stares at blank pages No easy way to say this You mean well, but you make this hard on me I'm not gonna write you a love song 'cause you asked for it 'cause you need one, you see I'm not gonna write you a love song 'cause you tell me it's Make or break in this If you're on your way I'm not gonna write you to stay If all you have is leaving I'm gonna need a better Reason to write you a love song today I learned the hard way That they all say things you want to hear And my heavy heart sinks deep down under you and Your twisted words, Your help just hurts You are not what I thought you were Hello to high and dry Convinced me to please you Made me think that I need this too I'm trying to let you hear me as I am I'm not gonna...

Closing Time

Closing time - time for you to go out, go out into the world. Closing time - turn the lights up over every boy and every girl. Closing time - one last call for alcohol, so finish your whiskey or beer. Closing time - you don't have to go home but you can't stay here. I know who I want to take me home. I know who I want to take me home. I know who I want to take me home. Take me home... Closing time - time for you to go back to the places you will be from. Closing time - this room won't be open 'til your brothers or you sisters come. So gather up your jackets, and move it to the exits - I hope you have found a friend. Closing time - every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end. Yeah, I know who I want to take me home. I know who I want to take me home. I know who I want to take me home. Take me home... Closing time - time for you to go back to the places you will be from... I know who I want to take me home. I know who I want to take me home. I know who I...

Burn everything you have And leave it all behind Lose all your inhibitions I'll take the mess you made And make it beautiful If time only stood still forever Hold out your hand and lean upon me I'll be the one to make you smile Hold out your hand and lean upon me I'll be the one to make you smile again Hold out your hand and lean upon me I'll be the one to make you smile Hold out your hand and lean upon me I'll be the one to make you smile again This moment that we're in Is slow and disappointing Time will never stand still forever If you take this chance we got And we'll make it beautiful If you'd take my word I'd be your savior Hold out your hand and lean upon me I'll be the one to make you smile Hold out your hand and lean upon me I'll be the one to make you smile again Hold out your hand and lean upon me I'll be the one to make you smile Hold out your hand and lean upon me I'll be the one to make you smile again Hold out your hand...

My Love Will Not Change

Image
Well, the seasons come And the seasons go And the reason you left Guess, I’ll never know There will be others, yes I know it’s true But they won’t do you Like I did for you My love will not change My love will not change It just rolls like a river To the sea of your name My love will not change My love will not change It’s as steady as the rhythm Of the pouring rain. Strong as the wind Across the mountain top Hey, my love is moving And it just won’t stop I run you loose honey I let you fly Now all I can do Is hang my head and cry My love will not change My love will not change Might as well try holdin’ Back a fast freight train My love will not change My love will not change Baby, ask me tomorrow And I’ll tell you the same

Enséñame

Image
Hay momentos que me dan Ganas de explicar Como el alma no sintió Lo que el cuerpo dió Y es que se que alguna vez Así me pasó Pero ahora haces que Eso cambie Tienes miedo, se ve en tus ojos Vas a temblar. Enséñame lo que piensas Que mi vida no sea mortal Enséñame lo que sientes Lo unico que ahora quiero escuchar Pero el tiempo pasará No lo podré evitar El momento ya llegó El miedo me venció Si pudieras comprender Lo mismo que yo Trataría de gritar Y acercarme Tus palabras detienen el tiempo Vas a temblar

Pain Makes You Beautiful

Pain makes you beautiful I give you what you want, the pain and the pleasure I'm no good for you But then you're no good for yourself I bring you pain Pain makes you beautiful I'm no good for you You're no good for yourself Strange and it's wonderful How you tell me what you need, the joy and the treasure Of pain's guilty pleasure Love's pressure painfully No sorrow tied Tied to my hurting you We delight in every torture I put you through How did we find this place This state where we satiate, where pain makes you beautiful Where you're no good for yourself No sorrow tied Tied to my hurting you To the compromising position, to all the painful things I do Pain makes you beautiful I give you what you want, the pain and the pleasure I'm no good for you, but then you're no good for youself

Anything (To Find You)

As we proceed to give you what you need As we proceed to give you what you need Likes sweet morning dew I took one look at you And it was plain to see You were my destiny We the big bank boys on the boulevard Putting all the pretty girls into pretty cars They shall not fuck with rozay pockets Feel the honey shots when I pop it I feel for you, vodka, rum on my arm 20 million Teflon Don, god bless All the D boys on the rise With my baby girl on my side, baby, baby I've been looking for someone special for a long, long time Someone that I can share my dream, someone I can call mine And every night I'm wishing, hoping, that he's only getting closer Cause I'm, oh I'm gonna find you, want to know you And I just wanna know if someone's out there Somebody to hold, somebody who cares I'll do anything to find you (and when I do) I won't let you go, no, no I'd do anything to find you (and when I do) I won't let you go, no, no ...

Such Great Heights

Image
I am thinking it's a sign that the freckles In our eyes are mirror images and when We kiss they're perfectly aligned And I have to speculate that God himself Did make us into corresponding shapes like Puzzle pieces from the clay And true, it may seem like a stretch, but Its thoughts like this that catch my troubled Head when you're away when I am missing you to death When you are out there on the road for Several weeks of shows and when you scan The radio, I hope this song will guide you home. They will see us waving from such great Heights, 'come down now,' they'll say But everything looks perfect from far away, 'come down now,' but we'll stay... I tried my best to leave this all on your Machine but the persistent beat it sounded Thin upon listening And that frankly will not fly. You will hear The shrillest highs and lowest lows with The windows down when this is guiding you home.

Keep Your Head Up

Image
I spent my time watchin' the spaces that have grown between us. And I cut my mind on second best or the scars that come with the greeness. And I gave my eyes to the boredom, still the seabed wouldn't let me in, And I tried my best to embrace the darkness in which I swim. Oh the darkness in which I swim. I'm walkin' back down this mountain With the strength of a turnin' tide Oh the wind's so soft on my skin, The sun so hard upon my side. Oh lookin' out at this happiness, I search for between the sheets. Oh feelin' blind and realize, All I was searchin' for was me. Ooh all I was searchin' for was me. Keep your head up, keep your heart strong. No, no, no, no. Keep your mind set, keep your hair long. Oh my darlin' keep your head up, keep your heart strong. Oh no no, keep your mind set in your ways, keep your hair, Keep your hair long. 'Cause I'll always remember you the same, Oh eyes are wild flowers, within demons of change. I saw a frie...

It’s been a long time since I came around Been a long time but I’m back in town This time I’m not leaving without you You taste like whiskey when you kiss me, oh I’d give anything again to be your baby doll This time I’m not leaving without you You said sit back down where you belong In the corner of my bar with your high heels on Sit back down on the couch where we Made love the first time and you said to me Something, something about this place Something ‘bout lonely nights and my lipstick on your face Something, something about my cool Nebraska guy Yeah something about, baby, you and I It`s been two years since I let you go, I couldn’t listen to a joke or rock `n roll Muscle cars drove a truck right through my heart On my birthday you sang me a heart of gold With a guitar humming and no clothes This time I'm not leaving without you Ooh-oh ooh-oh Sit back down where you belong In the corner of my bar with your high heels on Sit back down on the couch where we Made love the first ...

To Build A Home

Image
There is a house built out of stone Wooden floors, walls and window sills... Tables and chairs worn by all of the dust... This is a place where I don't feel alone, This is a place where I feel at home... Cause, I built a home For you For me Until it disappeared From me From you And now, it's time to leave and turn to dust... Out in the garden where we planted the seeds There is a tree as old as me. Branches were sewn by the color of green, Ground had arose and passed it's knees, By the cracks of the skin I climbed to the top, I climbed the tree to see the world, When the gusts came around to blow me down I held on as tightly as you held onto me, I held on as tightly as you held onto me... Cause, I built a home, For you, For me, Until it disappeared. From me, From you, And now, it's time to leave and turn to dust...

You look like A perfect fit For a girl in need Of a tourniquet But can you, save me Come on and, save me If you could, save me From the ranks of the freaks Who suspect they could never love anyone 'Cause I can tell You know what it's like The long farewell Of the hunger strike But can you, save me Come on and, save me If you could, save me From the ranks of the freaks Who suspect they could never love anyone You struck me down Like Radium Like Peter Pan or Superman You will come to save me C'mon and save me If you could, save me From the ranks of the freaks Who suspect they could never love anyone 'Cept the freaks Who suspect they could never love anyone But the freaks Who suspect they could never love anyone C'mon and save me Why don't you save me If you could save me From the ranks of the freaks Who suspect they could never love anyone 'Cept the freaks Except the freaks Who suspect they could never love anyone ...

One is the loneliest number That you'll ever do Two can be as bad as one It's the loneliest number since the number one No is the saddest experience You'll ever know Yes, it's the saddest experience You'll ever know Because one is the loneliest number That'll you'll ever do One is the loneliest number That you'll ever know It's just no good anymore Since you went away Now I spend my time Just making rhymes Of Yesterday Because one is the loneliest number That you'll ever do One is the loneliest number That you'll ever know One is the loneliest number One is the loneliest number One is the loneliest number That you'll ever do One is the loneliest number Much much worse than two One is a number divided by two (that's easy) Two divided by one is decided To bring down the curtain, Then one things for certain, Theres nothing to keep them together.

Little Baby Nothing

Image
No one likes looking at you Your lack of ego offends male mentality They need your innocence To steal vacant love and to destroy Your beauty and virginity used like toys My mind is dead, everybody love's me Wants a slice of me Hopelessly passive and compatible Need to belong, oh the roads are scarey So hold me in your arms I wanna be your only possession Used, used, used by men Used, used, used by men All they leave behind is money Paper made out of broken twisted trees Your pretty face offends Because it's something real that I can't touch Eyes, skin, bone, contour, language as a flower No god reached me, faded films and loving books Black and white TV All the world does not exist for me And if I'm starving, you can feed me lollipops Your diet will crush me My life just an old man's memory Little baby nothing Loveless slavery, lips kissing empty Dress your life in loathing Breaking your mind with Barbie Doll futility Little baby nothing Sexually free, made-up to br...

The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face

Image
The first time ever I saw your face I thought the sun rose in your eyes And the moon and stars were the gifts you gave To the dark and the empty skies. and the first time ever I kissed your mouth I felt the earth move in my hands Like the trembling heart of a captive bird That was there at my command, my love. And the first time ever I lay with you I felt your heart so close to mine And I knew our joy would fill the earth And last and last and last till the end of time The first time ever I saw your face, your face, Your face, your face.

Saw Something

Image
After the storm Had passed I wondered how long The break in the clouds would last I saw something in your eyes I'm sure (Oh baby) I saw it Something in your eyes I wanted it for myself I sit and I wait And I stare Still wishing for a divine intervention To lift me from my chair I saw something in your eyes I'm sure (Oh baby) I saw it Something in your eyes I saw something in your eyes I'm sure (Oh baby) I saw it There was something in your eyes I wanted it for myself You and I have come so far We've reached beyond the farthest star Time and time and time again I want you back You were my friend We can't pretend I saw something in your eyes I'm sure (Oh baby) I saw it Something in your eyes I wanted it for myself

The Last Night Of The World

Wonderful Tonight

Image
It's late in the evening; she's wondering what clothes to wear. She puts on her make-up and brushes her long blonde hair. And then she asks me, "Do I look all right?" And I say, "Yes, you look wonderful tonight." We go to a party and everyone turns to see This beautiful lady that's walking around with me. And then she asks me, "Do you feel all right?" And I say, "Yes, I feel wonderful tonight." I feel wonderful because I see The love light in your eyes. And the wonder of it all Is that you just don't realize how much I love you. It's time to go home now and I've got an aching head, So I give her the car keys and she helps me to bed. And then I tell her, as I turn out the light, I say, "My darling, you were wonderful tonight. Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight."

Say Hey (I Love You)

Image
This one goes out to you and yours worldwide I say hey I be gone today But I be back around the way Seems like everywhere I go The more I see the less I know But I know one thing That I love you I love you I love you I love you I’ve been a lot of places all around the way I’ve seen a lot joy and I’ve seen a lot of pain but I don’t want to write a love song for the world, I just want to write a song about a boy and a girl Junkies on the corner always calling my name And the kids on the corner playing ghetto games When I saw you getting down well I hoped it was you And when I looked into your eyes I knew it was true I say Hey I be gone today But I be back around the way Seems like everywhere I go The more I see the less I know But I know one thing That I love you I love you I love you I love you Now I’m not a highly metaphysical man But I know when the stars are aligned you can bump into person in the middle of the road look into their eyes and you suddenly know Rocking in the dance hall...

The Way I Am

Image
If you were falling, then I would catch you. You need a light, I'd find a match. Cause I love the way you say good morning. And you take me the way I am. If you are chilly, here take my sweater. Your head is aching, I'll make it better. Cause I love the way you call me baby. And you take me the way I am. I'd buy you Rogaine when you start losing all your hair. Sew on patches to all you tear. Cause I love you more than I could ever promise. And you take me the way I am. You take me the way I am. You take me the way I am.

Without You

Image
I loved you since the very first day When I caught you looking my way I smiled and just knew it And up until you came along No one ever heard my song Now it’s climbing with a bullet It’s nice to have someone so honestly devoted But when it’s said and done, girl I hope you know that The traveling, the singing, it don't mean nothing without you The fast cars, the guitars, they are all just second to this life this love that you and I've been dreaming of for so long Would all be as good as gone without you Oh Without you yea yea Along comes a baby girl And suddenly my little world Just got a whole lot bigger, yes it did And people that I barely knew They love me cause I’m part of you Man it’s tough to figure How two souls could be miles from one another But still you and me somehow found each other The traveling, the singing, it don't mean nothing without you The fast cars, the guitars, they are all just second to this life this love that you and I've been dreaming of for ...

This Will Make You Love Again

Image
When the joys of living just leave you cold Frozen from the failing mess you've made your own And if you want an ending to your screenplay life Well here's the consolation That will change your heart and mind And all the glitz messiah's just pass the time A cure for no real sickness, cross your hopes and die Your supermarket jesus comes with smiles and lies Where justice he delays is always justice he denies This will make you love again... And now you're safe Love again To feel the rays Love again The sweet delays Love again And shoot the breeze Early thursday mornings Wipe away the flies The crossfire fight for action In between your thighs And every touch is sacred When they leave the room If i have to switch the lights off I wanna switch them off with you This will make you love again... And now you're safe Love again To feel the rays Love again The sweet delays Love again And shoot the breeze Love again

Freedom 90

I won't let you down I will not give you up Gotta have some faith in the sound It's the one good thing that I've got I won't let you down So please don't give me up cause I would really, really love to stick around, oh yeah Heaven knows I was just a young boy Didn't know what I wanted to be I was every little hungry schoolgirl's pride and joy And I guess it was enough for me To win the race? A prettier face! Brand new clothes and a big fat place On your rock and roll TV But today the way I play the game is not the same No way Think I'm gonna get myself happy I think there's something you should know I think it's time I told you so There's something deep inside of me There's someone else I've got to be Take back your picture in a frame Take back your singing in the rain I just hope you understand Sometimes the clothes do not make the man All we have to do now Is take these lies and make them true somehow ...

Better Together

Image
There is no combination of words I could put on the back of a postcard No song that I could sing, but I can try for your heart Our dreams, and they are made out of real things Like a, shoebox of photographs With sepia-toned loving Love is the answer, At least for most of the questions in my heart Like why are we here? And where do we go? And how come it's so hard? It's not always easy and Sometimes life can be deceiving I'll tell you one thing, it's always better when we're together Mmm, it's always better when we're together Yeah, we'll look at the stars when we're together Well, it's always better when we're together Yeah, it's always better when we're together And all of these moments Just might find their way into my dreams tonight But I know that they'll be gone When the morning light sings And brings new things For tomorrow night you see That they'll be gone too Too many things I have to do But if all of these dreams mig...

The Windmills Of Your Mind

Image
Round, like a circle in a spiral Like a wheel within a wheel. Never ending or beginning, On an ever spinning wheel Like a snowball down a mountain Or a carnaval balloon Like a carousell that's turning Running rings around the moon Like a clock whose hands are sweeping Past the minutes on it's face And the world is like an apple Whirling silently in space Like the circles that you find In the windmills of your mind Like a tunnel that you follow To a tunnel of it's own Down a hollow to a cavern Where the sun has never shone Like a door that keeps revolving In a half forgotten dream Or the ripples from a pebble Someone tosses in a stream. Like a clock whose hands are sweeping Past the minutes on it's face And the world is like an apple Whirling silently in space Like the circles that you find In the windmills of your mind Keys that jingle in your pocket Words that jangle your head Why did summer go so quickly Was it something that I said Lovers walking allong the shore, Le...

The Last Dance For Me

Image
You can dance-every dance with the guy Who gives you the eye,let him hold you tight You can smile-every smile for the man Who held your hand neath the pale moon light But don't forget who's takin' you home And in whose arms you're gonna be So darlin' save the last dance for me Oh I know that the music's fine Like sparklin' wine, go and have your fun Laugh and sing, but while we're apart Don't give your heart to anyone But don't forget who's takin' you home And in whose arms you're gonna be So darlin' save the last dance for me Baby don't you know I love you so Can't you feel it when we touch I will never, never let you go I love you oh so much You can dance, go and carry on Till the night is gone And it's time to go If he asks if you're all alone Can he walk you home,you must tell him no 'Cause don't forget who's taking you home And in whose arms you're gonna be Save the last dance for me Oh I know ...

Lost

Image
I can't believe it's over I watched the whole thing fall And I never saw the writing that was on the wall If I'd only knew The days were slipping past That the good things never last That you were crying Summer turned to winter And the snow it turned to rain And the rain turned into tears upon your face I hardly recognized the girl you are today And god I hope it's not too late It's not too late 'Cause you are not alone I'm always there with you And we'll get lost together Till the light comes pouring through 'Cause when you feel like you're done And the darkness has won Babe, you're not lost When your worlds crashing down And you can't bear the thought I said, babe, you're not lost Life can show no mercy It can tear your soul apart It can make you feel like you've gone crazy But you're not Things have seem to changed There's one thing that's still the same In my heart you have remained And we can fly fly fly away ...

Amor Del Bueno

Smile

You're better then the best I'm lucky just to linger in your light Cooler than the flip side of my pillow, that's right Completely unaware Nothing can compare to where you send me Let's me know that it's ok Yeah it's ok And the moments when my good times start to fade You make me smile like the sun Fall outta bed Sing like a bird Dizzy in my head Spin like a record Crazy on a Sunday night You make me dance like a fool Forget how to breathe Shine like gold Buzz like a bee Just the thought of you can drive me wild Oh, you make me smile Even when you're gone Somehow you come along Just like a flower poking through the sidewalk crack and just like that You steal away the rain and just like that You make me smile like the sun Fall outta bed Sing like a bird Dizzy in my head Spin like a record Crazy on a Sunday night You make me dance like a fool Forget how to breathe Shine like gold buzz like a bee Just the thought of you ...

What You Want

Need You Now

Image
Picture perfect memories, scattered all around the floor. Reaching for the phone cause, I can't fight it any more. And I wonder if I ever cross your mind. For me it happens all the time. It's a quarter after one, I'm all alone and I need you now. I said I wouldn't call but I lost all control and I need you now. And I don't know how I can do without, I just need you now. Another shot of whiskey, can't stop looking at the door. Wishing you'd come sweeping in the way you did before. And I wonder if I ever cross your mind. For me it happens all the time. It's a quarter after one, I'm a little drunk and I need you now. I said I wouldn't call but I lost all control and I need you now. And I don't know how I can do without, I just need you now. I guess I'd rather hurt than feel nothing at all. It's a quarter after one, I'm all alone and I need you now. And I said I wouldn't call, but I'm a little drunk and I need you now. And I d...

Possibility

There's a possibility There's a possibility All that I had was all I'm gonna get Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm There's a possibility There's a possibility All I gonna get is gone with your step All I gonna get is gone with your stare So tell me when you hear my heart stop You're the only one that knows Tell me when you hear my silence There's a possibility I would't know Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm Know that when you leave Know that when you leave By blood and by me, you walk like a thief, By blood and by me, and I fall when you leave So tell me when you hear my heart stop You're the only one that knows Tell me when you hear my silence There's a possibility I wouldn't know So tell me when my sigh is over You're the reason why I'm closed Tell me when you hear me falling There's a possibility it wouldn't show Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm By blood and by me, and I'll fall when you leave. By blood and by me, I follow your lead. Mmmmm...

You'll Be Mine

We could bring a blanket for the grass Cover up your eyes so you don't see If you let me go I'm running fast One two three count one two three We could watch the black birds cross the skies We could count the leaves left on the trees We could count the teardrops in our eyes One two three yeah one two three One two three yeah one two three Now you know now you know How I feel and I won't back down Prick your finger on a spinning wheel But dont make a sound Drop of blood and now you're taken For all time With a kiss you will awaken And you'll be mine you'll be mine you'll be mine I could always stay and work it out Wondering if you still wanted me But there are so many things to doubt One two three count one two three Think that for a moment you were mine I know that you saw what we could be But then you went and changed your mind One two three yeah one two three One two three yeah one two three Now you know now you know How I feel and I won't back down Pr...

Just The Way You Are

[Verse 1] Her eyes, her eyes make the stars look like they're not shining Her hair, her hair falls perfectly without her trying She's so beautiful And I tell her everyday (yeahh) I know, I know When I compliment her she won't believe me And it's so, it's so Sad to think that she don't see what I see But everytime she asks me "Do I look okay?" I say [Chorus:] When I see your face There's not a thing that I would change 'Cause you're amazing Just the way you are And when you smile The whole world stops and stares for a while 'Cause girl you're amazing Just the way you are [Verse 2] Her lips, her lips I could kiss them all day if she'd let me Her laugh, her laugh she hates but I think it's so sexy She's so beautiful And I tell her everyday Oh you know, you know, you know I'd never ask you to change If perfect's what you're searching for Then just stay the same So don't even bother asking if you look okay ...

Broken Wings

Baby don't understand Why we can't just hold on To each other's hands This time might be the last I fear unless I make it all too clear I need you so Take these broken wings And learn to fly again And learn to live so free And when we hear the voices sing The book of love will open up And let us in Take these broken wings Baby I think tonight We can take what was wrong To make it right Baby it's all I know That you're half of the flesh And blood makes me whole Need you so Take these broken wings And learn to fly again And learn to live so free And when we hear the voices sing The book of love will open up And let us in Take these broken wings You got to learn to fly And learn to live so free And when we hear the voices sing Let us in Let us in Baby it's all I know That you're half of the flesh And blood makes me whole Yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah so Take these broken wings And learn to fly again And learn to live so free And when we hear the voices sing The b...

In Your Eyes

Love I get so lost, sometimes Days pass and this emptiness fills my heart When I want to run away I drive off in my car But whichever way I go I come back to the place you are All my instincts, they return And the grand facade, so soon will burn Without a noise, without my pride I reach out from the inside In your eyes The light, the heat In your eyes I am complete In your eyes I see the doorway to a thousand churches In your eyes The resolution of all the fruitless searches In your eyes I see the light and the heat In your eyes Oh, I want to be that complete I want to touch the light The heat I see in your eyes Love, I don't like to see so much pain So much wasted and this moment keeps slipping away I get so tired of working so hard for our survival I look to the time with you to keep me awake and alive And all my instincts, they return And the grand facade, so soon will burn Without a noise, without my pride I reach out from the inside In ...

Don't Give Up

Image
In this proud land we grew up strong We were wanted all along I was taught to fight, taught to win I never thought I could fail No fight left or so it seems I am a man whose dreams have all deserted I've changed my face, I've changed my name But no one wants you when you lose Don't give up 'cos you have friends Don't give up You're not beaten yet Don't give up I know you can make it good Though I saw it all around Never thought I could be affected Thought that we'd be the last to go It is so strange the way things turn Drove the night toward my home The place that I was born, on the lakeside As daylight broke, I saw the earth The trees had burned down to the ground Don't give up You still have us Don't give up We don't need much of anything Don't give up 'cause somewhere there's a place Where we belong Rest your head You worry too much It's going to be alright When times get rough You ca...
