Learning To Fly





Well I started out down a dirty road
Started out all alone
And the sun went down as I crossed the hill
And the town lit up, the world got still

I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing

Well the good ol' days may not return
And the rocks might melt and the sea may burn

Well some say life will beat you down
Break your heart, steal your crown
So I've started out for God knows where
I guess I'll know when I get there

I'm learning to fly, around the clouds
But what goes up must come down

No One Like You







Girl, it's been a long time that we've been apart
Much too long for a man who needs love
I miss you since I've been away
Babe, it wasn't easy to leave you alone
It's getting harder each time that I go
If I had the choice, I would stay

There's no one like you
I can't wait for the nights with you
I imagine the things we'll do
I just wanna be loved by you

No one like you
I can't wait for the nights with you
I imagine the things we'll do
I just wanna be loved by you

Girl, there are really no words strong enough
To describe all my longing for love
I don't want my feelings restrained
Ooh, babe, I just need you like never before
Just imagine you'd come through this door
You'd take all my sorrow away

There's no one like you
I can't wait for the nights with you
I imagine the things we'll do
I just wanna be loved by you

No one like you
I can't wait for the nights with you
I imagine the things we'll do
I just wanna be loved by you

No one like you

Love Is A Losing Game





For you I was the flame
Love is a losing game
Five story fire as you came
Love is losing game
 
One I wished, I never played
Oh, what a mess we made
And now the final frame
Love is a losing game
 
Played out by the band
Love is a losing hand
More than I could stand
Love is a losing hand
 
Self-professed profound
Till the chips were down
Know you're a gambling man
Love is a losing hand
 
Though I battled blind
Love is a fate resigned
Memories mar my mind
Love is a fate resigned
 
Over futile odds
And laughed at by the gods
And now the final frame
Love is a losing game

Since You've Been Gone





I get the same old dreams same time everynight
Fall to the ground and I wake up
So I get out of bed, put on my shoes and in my head
Thoughts fly back to the breakup

These four wall are closing in
Look at the fix you put me in

Since you been gone
Since you been gone
I'm out of my head can't take it
Could I be wrong
But since you been gone
You cast your spell so break it
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Since you been gone

So in the night I stand beneath the backstreet light
I read the words that you sent to me
I can take the afternoon, the night time comes around
too soon
You can't know what you mean to me

Your poison letter, your telegram
Just goes to show you don't give a damn

Since you been gone
Since you been gone
I'm out of my head can't take it
Could I be wrong
But since you been gone
You cast your spell so break it
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Since you been gone

If you will come back
Baby, you know you'll never do wrong

Since you been gone
Since you been gone
I'm out of my head can't take it
Could I be wrong
But since you been gone
You cast your spell so break it
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Ever since you been gone

Since you been gone
Since you been gone
I'm out of my head can't take it
Since you been gone
Since you been gone
I'm out of my head can't take it

Love Don't Come Easy





There comes a time
When baby you 'n me
We gotta work it out
Whatever it will be
It feels so right
But somewhere deep inside
You don't know how you feel
You don't know if it is real

Do you want it
Do you need it
'Cause love don't come easy
Do you want it
Do you need it
'Cause love don't come easy

There comes a time
When you wake up one day
Not knowing if our love
Will take us all the way
Then suddenly,
Oh, you feel you must decide
If we should carry on
With what we've just begun
You know that it ain't always easy
You know that it ain't always right
When love finds a place in your heart

You can walk out through this open door
Just like so many times before
If you don't find what you are looking for
You may be lost forevermore

You know that it ain't always easy
You know that it ain't always right
When love finds a place in your heart
There comes a time
When baby you should know
We are gonna make it
You gotta let it show
'Cause I cant wait
And find out in the end
That you will not be standing
Right here by my side

I Want Someone Badly






Now I want someone badly
Got a girl here tonight
Want someone new
Someone new

But (a) little cry wants someone badly
Wanna know if this is a bad lease on me
(I want know)
I want know
Am I sure that I heard you right
I want to know
If you're leaving just do it tonight

Now I want someone badly
To burn in here with me
Better listen baby
'Cause I cry all over madly
Don't do anything to it with me
Ooh I wanna know
Am I sure that I have your love
I want know
If you're leaving just make sure it's right 

Now I want someone badly
To burn in here with me
Better listen baby
'Cause I cry all over madly
Don't do anything to it with me
Ooh I wanna know
Am I sure that I have your love
I want know
If you're leaving just make sure it's right 

Now I, I want someone badly
Could it be true
That someone is you

Manchester





I wrote me a book
I hid the last page
I didn't even look
I think I locked it in a cage
Wrote a novel
Cause everybody likes to read a novel...

It started with a word,
and it started pretty well
about a rare and fragile bird that I couldn't even spell
on the table
I think I left it on the table...

I found the last page in the sky,
cold and sweet, like an apple
I found you and now the story has its proper end

Oh hello,
will you be mine?
I haven't felt this alive in a long time
All the streets are warm today

I read the signs
I haven't been this in love in a long time
the sun is up, the sun will stay
Oh for the new day

The very last breath of the hero of our tale,
would lead you only to guess
Did he truly prevail
in the sequel?
I guess I'll have to write a sequel...

My favourite part's when I die
in your arms like a movie
It's tragic, but now the story has it's proper end

Oh hello,
will you be mine?
I haven't felt this alive in a long time
All the streets are warm and gray

I read the signs
I haven't been this in love in a long time
The sun is up, the sun will stay
All for the new day

Will you be mine?
The days are short and I wrote me my last rhyme
All the streets are warm today
I read the signs
I haven't been this in love in a long time

It's been a long time

Hold The Line






It's not in the way that you hold me
It's not in the way you say you care
It's not in the way you've been treating my friends
It's not in the way that you stayed till the end
It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you'll do
 
Hold the line, love isn't always on time, oh oh oh
Hold the line, love isn't always on time, oh oh oh
 
It's not in the words that you told me, girl
It's not in the way you say you're mine, ooh
It's not in the way that you came back to me
It's not in the way that your love set me free
It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you'll do
 
Hold the line, love isn't always on time, oh oh oh
Hold the line, love isn't always on time, oh oh oh
 
It's not in the words that you told me
It's not in the way you say you're mine, ooh
It's not in the way that you came back to me
It's not in the way that your love set me free
It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you'll do
 
Hold the line, love isn't always on time, oh oh oh
Hold the line, love isn't always on time (Love isn't always on time)
 
Hold the line, love isn't always on time (love isn't always, love isn't always on time)
Hold the line, love isn't always on time
Love isn't always on time
Love isn't always on time
Love isn't always on time, oh oh oh

Any Way You Want It





Any way you want it
That's the way you need it
Any way you want it

She loves to laugh
She loves to sing
She does everything
She loves to move
She loves to groove
She loves the lovin' things

Ooh, all night, all night
Oh, every night
So hold tight, hold tight
Ooh baby, hold tight

Oh,she said,
"Any way you want it
That's the way you need it
Any way you want it"
She said, "Any way you want it
That's the way you need it
Any way you want it"

I was alone
I never knew
What good love could do
Ooh, then we touched
Then we sang
About the lovin' things

Ooh, all night, all night
Oh, every night
So hold tight, hold tight
Ooh baby, hold tight

Oh, she said,
"Any way you want it
That's the way you need it
Any way you want it"
She said, "Any way you want it
That's the way you need it
Any way you want it"

Who Are You?







Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?

I woke up in a Soho doorway
A policeman knew my name
He said "You can go sleep at home tonight
If you can get up and walk away"

I staggered back to the underground
And the breeze blew back my hair
I remember throwin' punches around
And preachin' from my chair

Well, who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
I really wanna know (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
Tell me, who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
'Cause I really wanna know (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)

I took the tube back out of town
Back to the Rollin' Pin
I felt a little like a dying clown
With a streak of Rin Tin Tin

I stretched back and I hiccupped
And looked back on my busy day
Eleven hours in the Tin Pan
God, there's got to be another way

Who are you?
Ooh wa ooh wa ooh wa ooh wa ...

Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?

I know there's a place you walked
Where love falls from the trees
My heart is like a broken cup
I only feel right on my knees

I spit out like a sewer hole
Yet still recieve your kiss
How can I measure up to anyone now
After such a love as this

Stubborn Love







She'll lie and steal, and cheat, and beg you from her knees
Make you think she means it this time
She'll tear a hole in you, the one you can't repair
But I still love her, I don't really care

When we were young, oh, oh, we did enough
When it got cold, ooh, ooh, we bundled up
I can't be told, ah, ah, it can't be done

It's better to feel pain, than nothing at all
The opposite of love's indifference
So pay attention now, I'm standing on your porch screaming out
And I won't leave until you come downstairs

So keep your head up, keep your love
Keep your head up, my love
Keep your head up, my love
Keep your head up, keep your love

And I don't blame you dear for running like you did all these years
I would do the same, you'd best believe
And the highway signs say we're close but I don't read those things anymore
I never trusted my own eyes

When we were young oh, oh, we did enough
When it got cold, ooh, ooh we bundled up
I can't be told, ah, ah, it can't be done

So keep your head up, keep your love
Keep your head up, my love
Keep your head up, my love
Keep your head up, keep your love
Head up, love
Head up, love
Head up, love
Head up, love

I Will Wait







Well, I came home
Like a stone
And I fell heavy into your arms
These days of dust
Which we've known
Will blow away with this new sun

But I'll kneel down,
Wait for now
And I'll kneel down,
Know my ground

And I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you

So break my step
And relent
Well, you forgave and I won't forget
Know what we've seen
And him with less
Now in some way shake the excess

'Cause I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you

Now I'll be bold
As well as strong
And use my head alongside my heart
So tame my flesh
And fix my eyes
A tethered mind freed from the lies

And I'll kneel down,
Wait for now
I'll kneel down,
Know my ground

Raise my hands
Paint my spirit gold
And bow my head
Keep my heart slow

'Cause I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you

In Hell I'll Be In Good Company






Dead Love couldn't go no further
Proud of and disgusted by her
Push shove, a little bruised and battered
Oh Lord I ain't coming home with you

My life's a bit more colder
Dead wife is what I told her
Brass knife sinks into my shoulder
Oh babe don't know what I'm gonna do

I see my red head, messed bed, tear shed, queen bee
My squeeze
The stage it smells, tells, hell's bells, miss-spells
Knocks me on my knees
It didn't hurt, flirt, blood squirt, stuffed shirt
Hang me on a tree
After I count down, three rounds, in hell I'll be in good company

Dead Love couldn't go no further
Proud of and disgusted by her
Push shove, a little bruised and battered
Oh Lord I ain't coming home with you

My life's a bit more colder
Dead wife is what I told her
Brass knife sinks into my shoulder
Oh babe don't know what I'm gonna do

I see my red head, messed bed, tear shed, queen bee
My squeeze
The stage it smells, tells, hell's bells, misspells
Knocks me on my knees
It didn't hurt, flirt, blood squirt, stuffed shirt
Hang me on a tree
After I count down, three rounds, in hell I'll be in good company

Hoy converso con Miguel





Que como el sol sea mi verso,
más grande y dulce cuanto más viejo...

Que mi voz suba a los montes y baje a la tierra y truene
eso pide mi garganta desde ahora y desde siempre.
Aquí estoy para vivir mientras el alma me suene
y aquí estoy para morir cuando la hora me llegue.
Y si me muero, que muera con la cabeza muy alta,
muerto y veinte veces muerto, la boca contra la grama.
Cantando espero a la muerte, que hay ruiseñores que cantan
encima de los fusiles y en medio de las batallas.
No, no hay carcel para el hombre, no podran atarme, no,
este mundo de cadenas me és pequeño y exterior,
¿quien encierra una sonrisa?, ¿quien amuralla una voz?
A lo lejos tu más sola que la muerte, la una y yo.
A lo lejos tu sintiendo en tus brazos mi prisión,
en tus brazos donde late la libertad de los dos...
... libre soy, sienteme libre, libre soy, solo por amor. 

El se llama barro, aunque Miguel se llame,
sentado sobre los muertos el alma se relame
es su sino sangriento afilado hacia el papel
yo navego entre sus versos, hoy converso con Miguel. 

Desperté de ser niño, nunca despiertes,
triste llevo la boca, riete siempre,
Siempre en la cuna, defiendo la risa pluma por pluma.
Músicas exasperadas, duras como botas, huellan
la faz de las esperanzas y de las entrañas tiernas.
Crepita el alma, la ira. El llanto relampaguea,
¿Para qué quiero la luz si tropiezo con las tinieblas?
Un carnívoro cuchillo, de ala dulce y homicida
sostiene un vuelo y un brillo alrededor de mi vida.
Rayo de metal crispado fulgentemente caido,
picotea mi costado y hace en él un triste nido.
Pero al fin podré vencerte, ave y rayo secular,
corazón, que de la muerte nadie ha de hacerme dudar.
Sigue, pues, sigue cuchillo, volando, hiriendo, algún día
se pondrá el tiempo amarillo sobre mi fotografía. 

El se llama barro, aunque Miguel se llame,
sentado sobre los muertos el alma se relame
es su sino sangriento afilado hacia el papel
yo navego entre sus versos, hoy converso con Miguel. 

Vientos del pueblo le llevan hasta el último rincón,
es vecino de la muerte y le sobra el corazón.
Voz de campesino, su sangre es un camino cruel,
yo navego entre sus versos, hoy converso con Miguel.
Por las calles voy dejando algo que voy recogiendo,
pedazos de vida mía venidos desde muy lejos.
Como una fontana que, eterna en brotar persiste,
como un sendero me iré y no acabaré de irme.
Beso soy, sombra con sombra.
Beso, dolor con dolor.
Por haberme enamorado, corazón sin corazon.
De las cosas, del aliento sin sombra de la creación,
sed con agua en la distancia pero sed alrededor.
Lucho contra la sangre, me debato
contra tanto zarpazo y tanta vena.
Y cada cuerpo que tropiezo y trato,
es otro borbotón de sangre, otra cadena.
¿No cesara este rayo que me habita?
¿No cesará esta terca estalactita?
No quiero dormir-morir, no quiero morir durmiendo
en sagrada tierra estéril, yo quiero morir viviendo.

El se llama barro, aunque Miguel se llame,
sentado sobre los muertos el alma se relame
es su sino sangriento afilado hacia el papel
yo navego entre sus versos, hoy converso con Miguel. 

Vientos del pueblo le llevan hasta el último rincón,
es vecino de la muerte y le sobra el corazón.
Voz de campesino, su sangre es un camino cruel,
yo navego entre sus versos, hoy converso con Miguel. 

El llegó con tres heridas...
La del amor...
La de la muerte...
La de la vida...
Hijo de la luz y de la sombra...
Miguel Hernández.

Hopeless Wanderer





You heard my voice, I came out of the woods by choice
Shelter also gave their shade
But in the dark I have no name
So leave that click in my head
And I will remember the words that you said
Left a clouded mind and a heavy heart
But I am sure we could see a new start
So when your hopes on fire
But you know your desire
Don't hold a glass over the flame
Don't let your heart grow cold
I will call you by name
I will share your road

But hold me fast, hold me fast
'Cause I'm a hopeless wanderer
And hold me fast, hold me fast
'Cause I'm a hopeless wanderer

I wrestled long with my youth
We tried so hard to live in the truth
But do not tell me all is fine
When I lose my head, I lose my spine

So leave that click in my head
And I won't remember the words that you said
You brought me out from the cold
Now, how I long, how I long to grow old

So when your hope's on fire
But you know your desire
Don't hold a glass over the flame
Don't let your heart grow cold
I will call you by name
I will share your road


But hold me fast, hold me fast
'Cause I'm a hopeless wanderer
And hold me fast, hold me fast
'Cause I'm a hopeless wanderer
I will learn, I will learn to love the skies I'm under
And I will learn, I will learn to love the skies I'm under
The skies I'm under

Lieblingsmensch





Manchmal fühl ich mich hier falsch
wie ein Segelschiff im All.
Aber bist du mit mir an Bord,
bin ich gerne durchgeknallt.
Selbst der Stau auf der A2
ist mit dir blitzschnell vorbei.
Und die Plörre von der Tanke
schmeckt wie Kaffee auf Hawaii. (yeah)

Auch wenn ich schweig', du weisst Bescheid.
Ich brauch gar nichts sagen, ein Blick reicht.
Und wird uns der Alltag hier zu grau,
pack' ich dich ein, wir sind dann mal raus!

Hallo, Lieblingsmensch!
Ein Riesenkompliment dafür, dass du mich so gut kennst.
Bei dir kann ich ich sein,
verträumt und verrückt sein,
na na na na na na - danke, Lieblingsmensch!
Schön, dass wir uns kennen.

Bei dir kann ich ich sein,

Schön, dass wir uns kennen.

Absolut niemand darf's erfahren,
aber dir vertrau ich's an,
weil du's sicher aufbewahrst:
meine Area 51.
Und manchmal drehen wir uns im Kreis,
aus 'ner Kleinigkeit wird Streit,
aber mehr als 5 Minuten
kann ich dir nicht böse sein. (yeah)
Mach ich dir was vor, fällt's dir sofort auf.
Lass ich mich hängen, dann baust du mich auf.
Manchmal wiegt der Alltag schwer wie Blei,
doch sind wir zu zweit, scheint alles so leicht.

Hallo, Lieblingsmensch!
Ein Riesenkompliment dafür, dass du mich so gut kennst.
Bei dir kann ich ich sein,
verträumt und verrückt sein,
na na na na na na - danke, Lieblingsmensch!
Schön, dass wir uns kennen.

Zeiten ändern sich und wir uns gleich mit.
Du und ich, so jung auf diesem alten Polaroid Bild.
Das letzte Mal, als wir uns sahen, ist viel zu lang her,
doch jetzt lachen wir, als wenn du nie weggewesen wärst.

Hallo, Lieblingsmensch!
Ein Riesenkompliment dafür, dass du mich so gut kennst.
Bei dir kann ich ich sein,
verträumt und verrückt sein,

Jag kommer







Natten är ung och jag ligger vaken
Jag är "Lucy in the sky", jag är högt över molnen
Ja, jag vet att hon är söt men håll tillbaka
För jag har trillat dit, jag har fallit, jag har vaknat

Ja, jag vet att hon är söt men håll tillbaka
För,
Jag kommer, jag kommer, jag kommer, jag kommer - jag är nästan där
Jag kommer, jag kommer, jag kommer, jag kommer nu
Du, håll ut

Du vet att,
Jag kommer, jag kommer, jag kommer, jag kommer
Baby, jag tror jag är kär
I taxin, i trappen, i hissen, i hallen
Jag faller
Faller

Du och jag nu
Du snälla vänta, vänta, håll ut
Tio tusen meter upp i luften ser jag allt så klart
Jag vet att hon är söt, men det måste bli du och jag
Du och jag

För,
Jag kommer, jag kommer, jag kommer - jag är nästan där
Jag kommer, jag kommer, jag kommer, jag kommer nu
Du, håll ut
Du vet att,
Jag kommer, jag kommer, jag kommer, jag kommer
Baby, jag tror jag är kär

I taxin, i trappen, i hissen, i hallen
Jag faller
Faller
Oooooooh
Jag tror att jag faller, jag faller

Jag faller
Jag faller
I taxin, i trappen, i hissen, i hallen
Jag faller
Faller

(Jag kommer, jag kommer, jag kommer, jag kommer)
(Jag kommer, jag kommer, jag kommer, jag kommer)
(Jag kommer, jag kommer, jag kommer)
Du, håll ut
Du vet att,
Jag kommer, jag kommer, jag kommer, jag kommer
Baby, jag tror jag är kär

I taxin, i trappen, i hissen, i hallen
Jag faller
Faller
Jag kommer, baby, jag tror jag är kär

I taxin, i trappen, i hissen, i hallen
Jag faller
Faller

You Never Can Tell







It was a teenage wedding,
and the old folks wished them well
You could see that Pierre
did truly love the mademoiselle
And now the young monsieur
and madame have rung the chapel bell,
"C'est la vie", say the old folks,
it goes to show you never can tell

They furnished off an apartment
with a two room Roebuck sale
The coolerator was crammed
with TV dinners and ginger ale,
But when Pierre found work,
the little money comin' worked out well
"C'est la vie", say the old folks,
it goes to show you never can tell

They had a hi-fi phono, boy, did they let it blast
Seven hundred little records,
all rock, rhythm and jazz
But when the sun went down,
the rapid tempo of the music fell
"C'est la vie", say the old folks,
it goes to show you never can tell

They bought a souped-up jitney,
'twas a cherry red '53,
They drove it down New Orleans
to celebrate their anniversary
It was there that Pierre was married
to the lovely mademoiselle
"C'est la vie", say the old folks,
it goes to show you never can tell

While My Guitar Gently Weeps









I look at you all, see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping
Still my guitar gently weeps

I don't know why nobody told you
How to unfold your love
I don't know how someone controlled you
They bought and sold you

I look at the world and I notice it's turning
While my guitar gently weeps
With every mistake we must surely be learning
Still my guitar gently weeps

Well...

I don't know how you were diverted
You were perverted too
I don't know how you were inverted
No one alerted you

I look at you all, see the love there that's sleeping While my guitar gently weeps
Look at you all
Still my guitar gently weeps

Heart Shake









And I want you like lightning
Wants to black out the city below
Cause when I look at you
You look back at me with those eyes of stone
You smell so sweet when we're underneath these southern lights
And I can see the seas of Sicily are in your eyes
So now I'm letting go

And I throw myself into the sky
There ain't no need for little goodbyes
But if I come home
Will you still be there?
Will you still be there?

You make my heart shake like a rolling stone
You make my heart shake outta control
You make my heart shake
And I don't need your fools gold

And I'll never forget
The way your silhouette
Always gave me chills
And even now as we lie in bed
I think you know how it feels
So now I'm letting go

And I throw myself into the sky
There ain't no need for little goodbyes
But if I come home
Will you still be there?
Will you still be there?

You make my heart shake like a rolling stone
You make my heart shake outta control
You make my heart shake
And I don't need your fools gold

You make my heart shake like a rolling stone
You make my heart shake like it's out in the cold
You make my heart shake
And baby it's taking its toll

You make my
You make my
You make my

You make my heart shake like a rolling stone
You make my heart shake outta control
You make my heart shake
And I don't need your fools gold

You make my heart shake like a rolling stone
You make my heart shake like it's out in the cold
You make my heart shake
And baby it's taking its toll

I Gotta Try







Maybe it's true what they say about it
Maybe we can't make the ends meet
Maybe we'll all have to do without it
Maybe this world's just incomplete

Still we all look for the truth in our lives
Searching from different sides
So hard living in a desperate world
But we all do the best that we can

Some people see a change
Some will remain the same
But all of them live their lives under the gun
Some see the road as clear
Some say the end is here
They say it's a hopeless fight, well I say I gotta try

Maybe there's too much to think about it
Maybe there ain't nothin' left to say
But if our time's really runnin' out
Then this is no time to run away

'cause we're destined to look for the truth in this life
Blinded by tearful eyes
If it's no use tryin' in a desperate world
Then tell me why was I born

Some people see a change
Some will remain the same
But all of them live their lives under the gun
Some see the road as clear
Some say the end is here
They say it's a hopeless fight, but I say I gotta try

Lonely-living too lonely
Is it too late
To turn it all around

Some people see a change
Some will remain the same
But all of them live their lives under the gun
Some see the road as clear
Some say the end is here
They say it's a hopeless fight, but I say I gotta try

Someone's tryin'
Someone's cryin' out
While we live under the gun
Someone's livin'
Someone's givin' up

Hysteria







Out of touch, out of reach yeah
You could try to get closer to me
I'm in luck, I'm in deep, yeah
Hypnotized, I'm shakin' to my knees 

I gotta know tonight
If you're alone tonight
Can't stop this feeling
Can't stop this fire 

Oh, I get hysterical, hysteria
Oh can you feel it, do you believe it?
It's such a magical mysteria
When you get that feelin', better start believin'
'Cos it's a miracle, oh say you will, ooh babe
Hysteria when you're near
Out of me, into you yeah
You could hide it's just a one way street
Oh, I believe I'm in you, yeah
Open wide, that's right, dream me off my feet
Oh, believe in me 

I gotta know tonight
If you're alone tonight
Can't stop this feeling
Can't stop this fire 

Oh, I get hysterical, hysteria
Oh can you feel it, do you believe it?
It's such a magical mysteria
When you get that feelin', better start believin'
'Cos it's a miracle, oh say you will 

Ooh babe
Hysteria when you're near
Come on

A Case of You







Just before our love got lost you said
"I am as constant as a northern star"
And I said "Constantly in the darkness
Where's that at?
If you want me I'll be in the bar" 
 
On the back of a cartoon coaster
In the blue TV screen light
I drew a map of Canada
Oh Canada
With your face sketched on it twice
Oh you're in my blood like holy wine
You taste so bitter and so sweet 
 
Oh I could drink a case of you darling
Still I'd be on my feet
oh I would still be on my feet
 
Oh I am a lonely painter
I live in a box of paints
I'm frightened by the devil
And I'm drawn to those ones that ain't afraid 
 
I remember that time you told me you said
"Love is touching souls"
Surely you touched mine
'Cause part of you pours out of me
In these lines from time to time
Oh, you're in my blood like holy wine
You taste so bitter and so sweet 
 
Oh I could drink a case of you darling
And I would still be on my feet
I would still be on my feet
 
I met a woman
She had a mouth like yours
She knew your life
She knew your devils and your deeds
And she said
"Go to him, stay with him if you can
But be prepared to bleed" 
 
Oh but you are in my blood
You're my holy wine
You're so bitter, bitter and so sweet
 
Oh, I could drink a case of you darling
Still I'd be on my feet
I would still be on my feet

After All





There, there was a time I knew
That no matter, come what may, love
Would prevail
And then inside the dreams I knew
Came the question lovers fear
Can true love fail
Then I would miss the childhood wish
And haven't I sung to you
Of the knight in armor bright
Faithful and true to you 

Darling, after all
I will be the one to hold you in my arms
After all
I will be the one to hold you
I will be the one to hold you in my arms
In my arms 

I know in my heart and mind
That no matter, come what may, love will survive
And love, the author of space and time
Keeps the galaxies and each sparrow alive
And the love that heals the wound
After the war is through
Is the knight in armor bright
Faithful and true to you 

Darling, after all
I will be the one to hold you in my arms
After all
I will be the one to hold you
I will be the one to hold you in my arms
In my arms

S.O.S.





C'est un SOS, je suis touchée, je suis à terre
Entends-tu ma détresse, y'a t-il quelqu'un?
Je sens qu'j'me perds

J'ai tout quitté, mais ne m'en veux pas
Fallait qu'j'm'en aille, je n'étais plus moi
Je suis tombée tellement bas
Que plus personne ne me voit
J'ai sombré dans l'anonymat
Combattu le vide et le froid, le froid
J'aimerais revenir, j'n'y arrive pas
J'aimerais revenir

Je suis rien, je suis personne
J'ai toute ma peine comme royaume
Une seule larme m'emprisonne
Voir la lumière entre les barreaux
Et regarder comme le ciel est beau
Entends-tu ma voix qui résonne? (qui résonne)

C'est un SOS, je suis touchée, je suis à terre
Entends-tu ma détresse, y'a t-il quelqu'un?
Je sens qu'j'me perds

Le silence tue la souffrance est loi
L'entends-tu? Est-ce que tu le vois?
Il te prends et fait de toi
Un objet sans éclat
Alors j'ai crié, j'ai pensé à toi
J'ai noyé le ciel dans les vagues, les vagues
Tous mes regrets, toute mon histoire
Je la refais

Je suis rien, je suis personne
J'ai toute ma peine comme royaume
Une seule larme m'emprisonne
Voir la lumière entre les barreaux
Et regarder comme le ciel est beau
Entends-tu ma voix qui résonne?

C'est un SOS, je suis touchée, je suis à terre
Entends-tu ma détresse, y'a t-il quelqu'un?
Je sens qu'j'me perds

Let Me Fall In Love







Before I go to sleep tonight,
won’t you tell a story?

One that does not center around
power or glory—

A simple tale of love that is
tender and sweet,

Forever glorified, still
uncorrupted, with a steady heartbeat.

Or better still of love that’s
also passionate and wild,

That holds the light of youth
and makes you playful like a child.

Then let me fall in love.

I’ve heard people speak of sad
ending and broken hearts,

But the heart does heal and
where one thing ends, another starts.

I’ve heard them say they wished
they never knew such pain

But to wish for pain- free love
is to wish in vain.

And anyway, pain does not have to
mean suffering,

If love is a gift, to it yield
an offering

Cause when you fall in love,
you fall in love

With everything, with everyone,

And you look at the world
through a new pair of eyes

And you see fear – it crawls,
but love – it flies.
So fly with it, grow a pair of wings and soar up high,
This bird, it sings a lullaby.
Close your eyes now, go asleep,
And dream a dream of falling deep in love.

Roxanne







Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light
Those days are over
You don't have to sell your body to the night

Roxanne
You don't have to wear that dress tonight
Walk the streets for money
You don't care if it's wrong or if it's right

Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light
Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light

Roxanne (put on the red light)
Roxanne (put on the red light)
Roxanne (put on the red light)
Roxanne (put on the red light)
Roxanne (put on the red light)
Roxanne

I loved you since I knew you
I wouldn't talk down to you
I have to tell you just how I feel
I won't share you with another boy

I know my mind is made up
So put away your make-up
Told you once, I won't tell you again
It's a bad way

Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light
Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light

Ain't It Fun







I don't mind
Letting you down easy but just give it time
If it don't hurt now, but just wait, just wait a while
You're not the big fish in the pond no more
You are what they're feeding on

So what are you gonna do
When the world don't orbit around you
So what are you gonna do
When the world don't orbit around you

Ain't it fun
Living in the real world
Ain't it good
Being all alone

Where you're from
You might be the one who's running things
Well you can ring anybody's bell and get what you want
See it's easy to ignore trouble
When you're living in a bubble

So what are you gonna do
When the world don't orbit around you
So what are you gonna do
When nobody wants to fool with you

Ain't it fun
Living in the real world
Ain't it good
Being all alone
Ain't it good to be on your own
Ain't it fun, you can't count on no one
Ain't it good to be on your own
Ain't it fun you can't count on no one
Ain't it fun
Living in the real world

Don't go crying to your mama
'Cause you're on you're own, in the real world
Don't go crying to your mama
'Cause you're on you're own, in the real world

Don't go crying to your mama
'Cause you're on you're own, in the real world
Don't go crying to your mama
'Cause you're on you're own, in the real world

Ain't it fun, ain't it fun
Baby now you're one of us
Ain't it fun, ain't it fun, ain't it fun

Ain't it fun
Living in the real world
Ain't it good, ain't it good
Being all alone
Ain't it fun
Living in the real world
('Cause the world don't orbit around you)
Ain't it good, ain't it good
Being all alone

Don't go crying to your mama
'Cause you're on your own, in the real world
Don't go crying to your mama
'Cause you're on your own, in the real world
Don't go crying to your mama
'Cause you're on your own, this is the real world
Don't go crying to your mama
'Cause you're on your own,
In the real world (This is the real world, this is the real world)
Don't go crying to your mama
'Cause you're on your own, in the real world
Don't go crying to your mama
'Cause you're on your own, in the real world
Don't go crying to your mama
Don't go crying

Cambalache







Que el mundo fue y sera una porqueria,
ya lo sé…
En el quinientos seis
y en el dos mil también
Que siempre ha habido chorros,
maquiavelos y estafaos,
contentos y amargaos,
valores y dublés…
Pero que el siglo veinte
es un despliegue
de maldad insolente
ya no hay quien lo niegue.
Vivimos revolcaos en un merengue
y en un mismo lodo
todos manoseaos…
 
Hoy resulta que es lo mismo
ser derecho que traidor...
Ignorante, sabio, chorro,
generoso o estafador
Todo es igual. Nada es mejor
Lo mismo un burro
que un gran profesor
No hay aplazaos ni escalafón,
los inmorales nos han igualao.
Si uno vive en la impostura
y otro roba en su ambición,
da lo mismo que sea cura,
colchonero, rey de bastos,
caradura o polizón…
 
Qué falta de respeto,
que atropello a la razón
Cualquiera es un señor
Cualquiera es un ladrón
Mezclao con Stavisky va Don Bosco
y “La Mignon,”
Don Chicho y Napoleón,
Carnera y San Martin…
Igual que en la vidriera irrespetuosa
de los cambalaches
se ha mezclao la vida
y herida por un sable sin remache
ves llorar la Biblia
contra un bandoneón.
 
Siglo veinte, cambalache
problemático y febril
El que no llora, no mama,
y el que no roba es un gil.
Dale no más. Dale que va
Que allá en el horno
nos vamo a encontrar
No pienses más,
sentate a un lao.
Que a nadie importa
si naciste honrao.
Que es lo mismo el que trabaja
noche y día, como un buey
que el que vive de los otros,
que el que mata que el que cura
o esta fuera de la ley.
