Don't say goodbye, girl (goodbye, girl)
Don't make me cry, girl (cry, girl)
'Cos I love you (love you)

Used to have such fun
Used to have good times
But now those days are gone
Used to have it all
Used to get on fine
But things just went wrong

Used to be in love
Thought we had it made
But everything has changed
We just grew apart
No one is to blame

Woh, time has made us strangers
Maybe we can't go on
But if love can take the changes

Don't say goodbye, girl
Goodbye, girl
Don't throw it all away
'Cos I love you
Yes I do (yes I do)
Don't make me cry, girl
You're my girl
Don't say goodbye to me
'Cos I love you
Yes I do (yes I do)

We could go along
Saying things were fine
But we're just fooling ourselves
Maybe we should
Talk it out right now
And put things on the line

Everyone in love
Goes through times like these
It's just part of the game
I remember
I used to call your name

Woh, things don't have to be this way
Love is the answer now
Maybe we could start again today

Don't say goodbye, girl
Goodbye, girl
Don't throw it all away
'Cos I love you
Yes I do (yes I do)
Don't make me cry, girl
You're my girl
Don't say goodbye to me
'Cos I love you
Yes I do (yes I do)

Don't say goodbye, girl
Goodbye, girl
Don't say goodbye, girl
Goodbye, girl
Don't say goodbye, girl
Goodbye, girl
Don't say goodbye, girl
Goodbye, girl

Woh, time has made us strangers
Maybe we can't go on
But if love can take the changes

Don't say goodbye, girl
Goodbye, girl
Don't throw it all away
'Cos I love you
Yes I do (yes I do)
Don't make me cry, girl
'Cos you're my girl"
I couldn't live without you, no
'Cos I love you
Yes I do (yes I do)

Don't say goodbye, girl
Goodbye, girl
I want to spend my life with you
'Cos I love you
Yes I do (yes I do)
Don't make me cry, girl
You're my girl
Don't say goodbye to me
'Cos I love you
Yes I do (yes I do)

I can feel your love slipping away
Draining from my heart each and every day
I can feel your love slipping away
Draining from my heart each and every day

People ask me how's your love affair
I can only tell them lies
When they ask me where you are tonight
I can only fantasise

You may find somebody new
You'll say you love him, that's not true

I can feel your love slipping away
Draining from my heart each and every day
I can feel your love slipping away
Draining from my heart each and every day

Everybody thinks we're so in love
But things aren't always what they seem
Even my best friend says we're so good
Just how wrong can a person be

You may find somebody new
You'll say you love him, that's not true

I can feel your love slipping away
Draining from my heart each and every day
I can feel your love slipping away
Draining from my heart each and every day

I've been waiting
For a love to call my own
I've been hoping
You would say you're coming home
I will put my arms around you
Baby, I'm so glad I found you
There ain't nothing I can do
Now that I'm in love with you

No more looking for love
Now that I'm in love with you
No, there's no more looking for love
Now I've found a love that's true

I've been thinking
'Bout the way you looked last night
I remember how we held each other tight
As we lay beside the fire
Felt the heat of pure desire
There ain't nothing I can do
Now that I'm in love with you

No more looking for love
Now that I'm in love with you
No, there's no more looking for love
Now I've found a love that's true

I'm so glad that love has come around
I'm so thankful for the love I've found

No more looking for love
Now that I'm in love with you
No, there's no more looking for love
Now I've found a love that's true

I go to work in my clean shirt
I push a pen until half past ten
I watch the clock there on the wall
Tic toc, why don't you call
The boss come in and walks down the aisles
He turns around but he never smiles
He watches me just like a hawk
And then he says we must talk

You move me, from side to side
You move me and if feels so right
You move me up and down
You move me around and around

Son, he says (what) I've got bad news
Life is hard and you got the blues
I know you're good and I know you work hard
I'm sorry, son, but here are your cards
I went home and kicked off my shoes
And I asked myself why do I always lose
But then you called and everything was fine
I'm so glad that you are mine

You move me, from side to side
You move me and if feels so right
You move me up and down
You move me around and around

You're the one thing in my life
That makes me feel so good inside
will you hold me tight tonight
Oh, girl I wish you would decide

You move me, from side to side
You move me and if feels so right
You move me up and down
You move me around and around

When I fall in love it will be forever
Or I'll never fall in love
In a restless world like this is
Love is ended before it's begun
And too many moonlight kisses
Seem to cool in the warmth of the sun

When I give my heart it will be completely
Or I'll never give my heart
And the moment I can feel
that you feel that way too
Is when I fall in love with you

And the moment I can feel
that you feel that way too
Is when I fall in love with you

She wants to dance
She wants to dance with me
Oh yeah (dance with me)

There's a girl I've been waiting to see
And I really get the feeling that she likes me
'Cos she said so, but not in so many words
I've got to tell you what I've heard

She don't want no wild romance
When she's with me she only wants to dance

She wants to dance with me
'Cos I'll hold her so tight next to me
She wants to dance with me
'Cos I'll let her be what she wants to be

Now I know I've been out of touch
And I never meant to hurt my baby oh so much
'Cos I love her and I think she love me
And that's the way it's got to be

When we're together we never fight
We've got better things to do tonight

She wants to dance with me
'Cos I'll hold her so tight next to me
She wants to dance with me
'Cos I'll let her be what she wants to be

She wants to dance
She wants to dance

She wants to dance with me
'Cos I'll hold her so tight next to me
She wants to dance with me
'Cos I'll let her be what she wants to be

Are we lovers
or only just friends?
Come tomorrow
will I be lonely again?
When you see me
is it love in your eyes?
what you're feelin' deep down inside?

Do you think about me
when I'm far away?
Do you dream about me?
can I find the way
to make you want me
the way that I want you?
'Cause I think I love you
Could you love me too?

Take me to your heart
Never let me go
If you knew what I'm feeling
You would not say no

Take me to your heart
Never let me go
For your love, for your love
is all I need to know

Can you tell me
when you look at me
if you need me
in all honesty?
Because I'm certain
as sure as can be
I'll make ya happy
eternally...

'Cause I think about you
when you're far away
and I dream about you
night and day
Can I make you want me
the way that I want you
'Cause I think I love you
Could you love me too?

Take me to your heart
Never let me go
For your love, for your love
is all I need to know

Take me to your heart
Never let me go
For your love, for your love
is all I need to know

I don't wanna lose her
I don't wanna lose her

They told me that she had found somebody new
But I don't believe it
They said I would soon find out she was untrue
But I just can't see it

Maybe I am wrong to doubt it
And now that I think about it
If ever I lost her love
I'd be nothing, nothing without it

I don't wanna lose her, lose that girl
After all that we've been through
I don't wanna lose her, lose that girl of mine
(Lose that girl of mine)

I couldn't imagine life without her love
I just couldn't take it
If you wanted to know how well I would get on
I don't think I'd make it

Maybe I just don't show her
And now that I think it's over
I maybe should shout about it
'Cos I'd be nothing, nothing without it

I don't wanna lose her, lose that girl
After all that we've been through
I don't wanna lose her, lose that girl of mine
(Lose that girl of mine)

I'm gonna make a new start
And bring her back to my heart
'Cos what I found out about her
I just cannot live without her

Maybe I just don't show her
And now that I think it's over
I maybe should shout about it
'Cos I'd be nothing, nothing without it

Giving up on love
Giving up on love
I was so crazy about you, everyone knew
I couldn't sleep when I found out, yeah
You feel the way you do
So maybe it's my turn now
To show you how I feel

So listen to what I say
'Cos these feelings I can't conceal

I'm giving up on love
'Cos I've been hurt before
Giving up on love
And I don't want you no more

Giving up on love
And I don't want you no more

I don't believe that you need me

So don't try to stop me now

I know you wanna leave me
But I refuse to let you go
If I have to beg, plead for your sympathy
I don't mind 'cause you mean that much to me

Ain't to proud to beg, sweet darling
Please don't leave me girl, don't you go
Ain't to proud to plead, baby, baby
Please don't leave me girl, don't you go

Now I've heard a crying man is half a man
With no sense of pride
But if I have to cry to keep you
I don't mind weeping
If it'll keep you by my side

Ain't to proud to beg, sweet darling
Please don't leave me girl, don't you go
(Don't you go away)
Ain't to proud to plead, baby, baby
Please don't leave me girl, don't you go

Ain't to proud to beg, sweet darling
Ain't to proud to plead, baby, baby
Please don't leave me girl, don't you go

(Don't you go away)
(Don't you go away)

If I have to sleep on your doorstep all night and day
Just to keep you from walking away
Let your friends laugh, even this I can stand
'Cause I wanna keep you any way I can

Ain't to proud to beg, sweet darling
Please don't leave me girl, don't you go
Ain't to proud to plead, baby, baby
Please don't leave me girl, don't you go

Ain't to proud to beg, sweet darling
Please don't leave me girl, don't you go
Ain't to proud to plead, baby, baby
Please don't leave me girl, don't you go

Put yourself in my place
I only for a little while
Come on, try it, come on, try it
Come on, try it (try it, try it, try it)
Put yourself in my place
I only for a little while
Come on, try it, come on, try it
Come on, try it (try it, try it, try it)

Ain't to proud to beg, sweet darling
Please don't leave me girl, don't you go
Ain't to proud to plead, baby, baby
Please don't leave me girl, don't you go

I've been away for such a long time
Every day I miss you
All those long and lonely nights
Counting the hours till I'm with you

Till then
I'll keep holding on
Praying I'm not wrong
Hoping that our love is still strong
(Till then)
Keep our love alive
Hope you're satisfied
Till you're right here by my side
And the hands on the clock
Going round and round and round
But time don't seem to be moving at all

Every minute you were on my mind
Every day I wrote you
Half of me is lost in time
Half of me is always with you

Till then
I'll keep holding on
Praying I'm not wrong
Hoping that our love is still strong
(Till then)
Keep our love alive
Hope you're satisfied
Till you're right here by my side
And the hands on the clock
Going round and round and round
But time don't seem to be moving at all

Another ticket for another trip
To another destination (destination)
It's just the thought of you that keeps me strong
Moving in the right direction

If you ever wake up feeling blue
You know there's always someone
Who'll be right here for you
If there's any little thing
That's gonna get you down

And dial my number
That's all you have to do

So just you hush now, child
I'll bring my love to you

Just call me up, girl

Me, I'm just a simple guy
And no matter how hard I try
I may never show you how I feel

You may be the woman I love
I sometimes think that you've been sent from above
I am trying to be a man
Heaven knows, I do the best that I can

I'll never let you down
I'll be there whenever you need me
I'll never let you down
Come what my way

Me, I'll be a shoulder to cry on
I'll be someone you can rely on
And maybe you may see just how I feel

We may be so far apart
But you still know I've got a hungry heart
We must be patient, it won't last forever
It won't be long until we're together

I'll never let you down
I'll be there whenever you need me
I'll never let you down
I'll be strong, I'll show you how love can be
I'll never let you down
Come what my way

We must be patient, it won't last forever
It won't be long until we're together

I'll never let you down
I'll be there whenever you need me
I'll never let you down
I'll be strong, I'll show you how love can be

I don't want to be your lover

Last night I heard you creeping
I was almost sleeping
When I heard you come home
You knew I loved you madly
And I would gladly
Do anything for you

You climbed the stairs to Heaven
But you may never climb those steps again
You thought you'd be forgiven
But I was driven to make you understand

I don't want to be your lover
When there's another lover in your head
I don't want to be your lover
When there's another lover in your bed

Tell me how you could do it
Why put me through it
When you said you'd be true
You said that it was nothing
But it was something
And sometimes that's enough

So climb the stairs to Heaven
But you may never climb those steps again
You thought you'd be forgiven
But I was driven to make you understand

I don't want to be your lover
When there's another lover in your head
I don't want to be your lover
When there's another lover in your bed

We've been trying for a long time
To say what we want to say
But feelings don't come easy
To express in a simple way

But we all have feelings
We all need loving
And who would be the fool to say, that if you

Hold me in your arms
I won't feel better
If you hold me in your arms
We can brave this storm together

We both know there's a problem
A problem that we've got to face
So put your trust in me, lover
No-one's ever gonna take your place

'Cos we all have a problem
We all have fears
But there's always got to be a way
Yes we all have feelings
We all need loving
And you would be a fool to say, that if you

Hold me in your arms
I won't feel better
If you hold me in your arms
We can brave this storm together

[solo]

You only have to hold me
Touch me to make me feel so good
You only have to hold me
Feel me
To make me feel the way you know I should

Hold me in your arms
Hold me in your arms
Hold me in your arms
Hold me in your arms
When you gonna hold me in your arms
Hold me in your arms
Hold me in your arms
Hold me in your arms
Hold me in your arms
Hold me in your arms
Hold me in your arms
Hold me in your arms
Hold me in your arms

I know that love could realign the phases of the moon
Yet it comes and goes like a wave of a stranger
And as we stumble for the truth we're caught in a web of lies
Is nothing worth a damn without the danger

We're lost in a world of illusive dreams
Where every story has a desperate ring

[Chorus]
We got a right to happiness in the name of love
And though sometimes we may forget to give it all we possess
We gotta try for what we get in the name of love
And without pause or regret searching only for the best

We could see the light unfold right before our eyes
Blinded by the tears we get lost in the shadows

Oh but the heart is a wondrous thing
Surviving the thunder outlasting the rain

[Repeat chorus]

Oh but the heart is a wondrous thing
Surviving the thunder outlasting the rain

[Repeat chorus]

And we'll try in the name of love
And we'll try in the name of love
We got a right in the name of love

She's taken my time
Convinced me she's fine
But when she leaves
I'm not so sure

It's always the same
She's playing her game
And when she goes
I feel to blame

Why won't she say
She needs me?
I know she's not
As strong as she seems

Why don't I see
Her cry for help?
Why don't I feel
Her cry for help?
Why don't I hear
Her cry for help?

I wandered around
The streets of this town
Trying to find sense in it all

The rain on my face
It covers the trace
Of all the tears
I've had to waste

Why must we hide emotions?
Why must we never break down and cry?

All that I need
Is to cry for help
Somebody please hear me
Cry for help
All I can do
Is cry for help

No need to feel ashamed
Release the pain
Cry for help

Cry for help
Is all I need
All I need
Is a cry for help

Cry for help
Is all I need
All I need
Is a cry for help

Why must we hide emotions?
Why can't we ever break down and cry?

All that I need
Is to cry for help
I will be there
When you cry for help
Why don't I hear
Her cry for help?

All that I need
Is to cry for help
Somebody please hear me
Cry for help
All I can do
Is cry for help

All that I need
Is to cry for help
I will be there
When you cry for help
Is it so hard to cry for help?

Cry for help is all I need
No need to feel ashamed
All I need is a cry for help
Come on and release the pain
Cry for help is all I need
Put your trust in me
All I need is a cry for help
My love is gonna set you free

She comes home in the morning light
Tries to hide the secret of last night
Tells a tale of working late
Says the things she knows I hate

Why should I convince myself
That she loves me and no one else
Feels like time to break the chains
I wont be fooled again

Gonna take my time
Gonna take what's mine
I'm gonna move right out
Gonna take my time
Gonna keep my pride
Gonna move right out yeah

When we kiss there's no flame
But I believe I'm not to blame
When we touch its by mistake
Tenderness she just can't fake

Who does she think I am
To let her love another man
I won't take another day
I just refuse to stay

Gonna take my time
Gonna take what's mine
I'm gonna move right out
Gonna take my time
Gonna keep my pride
Gonna move right out

Gonna take my time
Gonna take what's mine
I'm gonna move right out
Gonna take my time
Gonna keep my pride
Gonna move right out yeah

Oh I love her I really care
The days so long when she's not there
But I believe it just ain't right
To see her with someone else tonight

Hear me now

Gonna take my time
Gonna take what's mine
I'm gonna move right out
Gonna take my time
Gonna keep my pride
Gonna move right out

Gonna take my time
Gonna take what's mine
I'm gonna move right out

How can you turn and walk away
Leaving me here with things to say
How can you stand and watch me fall
Don't you feel no love at all

I only want to say to you
That it would break your Papa's heart
For him to hear the things you say
When we could make a brand new start

[Chorus]
Will you hold me in your arms or let me go
Cause I want to show the world how much I know
That I love you
And I only want to be with you

How do I know you'll always stay
You're changing your mind most every day
I'm telling you girl don't push too far no
Just who do you think you are

I only want to say to you
That it would break your Mama's heart
For her to hear the things you say
When we could make a brand new start

[Repeat chorus x2]

Oh I love you so

Are you ready, for a guy like me
Come on baby, I'm on bended knee
Are you ready to be loved by me again

I only want to say to you

That it would break my loving heart
For me to see the things you do
When we could make a brand new start
Yes we could make a brand new start

Here we are
Riding high
We've some so far
We can touch the sky

So why can't we live together
Can't we be friends
Why must we fight our brothers
Til the bitter end

[Chorus]
We really got a problem
We don't know how to fix yeah
There ain't no reason for staying
We just can't do it

Talk to me
Scream and shout
Trust in me
We can work it out

We all know the world keeps turning
One day at a time
Easier lessons for leaving
We just couldn't find

[Repeat chorus]

So why can't we live together
Can't we be friends
Why must we fight our brothers
Til the bitter end

Ooh yeah
Won't you trust in me
I know we can make it yeah

I close my eyes and look inside
For a picture of how it should be
And I wonder if you could see what I see

Would you ever choose to live the way you do

We really got a problem
We don't know how to fix b'dum yeah
There ain't no reason for staying
We just can't do it

We really got a problem
We don't know how to fix b'dum yeah

There are times when a woman makes you laugh and cry
Nobody knows when she is telling lies
I just want to hear the truth from you
So don't play those games you always do

You don't have to hide the way you feel
Tell me if your love for me is real

[Chorus]
Is this really love
Is this the real thing
Is this really love
Can it be the right thing

I was born in a prison there was no way out
If you want to be heard you got to scream and shout
You don't know the kind of mess I'm in
Nobody else is going to save my skin but

You have got the key to set me free
If you want my love then rescue me

[Repeat chorus x2]

You don't have to hide the way you feel
Tell me if your love for me is real

I had a dream about a city dressed in lights
And there were friends of mine
I saw them time after time
But I never knew their names
And darling I swear
I saw you there
I know it sounds insane

Sweet dreams of a child forgotten so easy
I needed your smile to bring it all back to me
I see all of my life as the road that brought me here
Must be something went right
I just know when you're near

[Chorus]
This must be heaven
Have I found it what I've been looking for
This must be heaven
Have I finally stumbled through the door

How could I have doubted
I guess I must have lost my place
You turned on the light
And I saw my life
Reflected in your face

Sweet dreams of a child forgotten so easy oh yeah
I needed your smile to bring it all back to me
I see all of my life as the road that brought me here
Must be something went right
I just know when you're near

[Repeat chorus]
And I always knew that there was something more

Come closer to me now
You fill me up I'm overflowing
Come closer to me now
Come hold me tight and don't let go

[Repeat chorus]

You fill me up girl
You fill me up and I'm overflowing

This must be heaven
Have I found what I've been living for
This must be heaven
Have I finally stumbled through the door

This must be heaven
Have I found what I've been looking for
This must be heaven
And I always knew that there were something more

Your love is warm as a ray of sun
Touching me when the morning comes
So lucky am I to have you by my side
Forever

[Chorus]
Never knew love could feel this way
Never knew love could do this to me
Never knew love could feel this way
Never knew love could do this to me

Thought I had it all in the palm of my hand
Darkness had fallen on me and I didn't quite understand
Then came you you brightened up my days yeah
Forever

[Repeat chorus]

Oh I know
Never knew love never knew love

Could feel this way
Could do this to me
Could feel this way
Could do this to me
I never knew your love

When we were out dancing the other night
You almost got me into another fight
You always want to prove you've got the touch, baby
To make all the other guys want you so much

But if you ever do that to me
Just one more time
I swear to you that I will blow
And baby that's

[Chorus]
The bottom line
The bottom line

If you really love me like you say
Wouldn't keep on hurting me this way
You always turn away when I call your name
And baby things just stay the same

So if you ever do that to me
Just one more time
I swear to you that I will blow
And baby that's

[Repeat chorus]

Here we go

You've got to believe it's over
You've got to believe it's true
You've got to believe it's over
And we're through

You've got to believe it's over
You've got to believe it's true
You've got to believe it's over
And we're through

The bottom line
The bottom line
The bottom line

All that you have ever done for me
Is show just how rotten life can be
But this has taught me one thing that's for sure yeah
I'll never let that girl back through my door

And if she ever does that to me
Just one more time
I swear to you that I will blow
And baby that's

[Repeat chorus x2]

I'd like to thank you all for coming this evening
All you people all you people out there
You're all beautiful

When I come home a little late at night
And I crawl into my bed
I think of you and where you are tonight
And I wish you were here instead

I really want you to know that I'm the one
I'm never letting go
I swear I'll do the best I can to be
Your one and only man cause

[Chorus]
You light up my night and day
You bring on the sunshine
You make me feel good today
Yeah you wonderful you

When times are hard and nothing goes my way
And I wonder what to do
I think of you and all the things you say
You're the one that pulls me through

I really want you to know that I'm the one
I'm never letting go
I swear I'll do the best I can to be
Your true and only man cause

[Chorus]
Behind the smile that I portray
I am saddened every day
My eyes are sore with endless nights of crying
I hope that you don't feel this way

My heart fills with tears when you pass me by
You won't look me in the eye
Don't you think that it's a crying shame
We must play these silly games

The pain in my heart that shows we're apart
Is growing stronger day by day

[Repeat chorus]

If you think that I have done you wrong
I won't try to change your mind
But try to think of the love that we once had
And maybe things won't seem so bad

The memories of those times are vivid in my mind
And yet they slip away as time goes on

Take me back tonight
Hold me close and tight
Forever I will be true

Behind the smiles that we portray
There is nothing hidden away
Our eyes are sore because we are crying
I hope we'll always feel this way

Children cry on the street
They don't have enough to eat
Mothers wait for days to end
A hopeless situation they can't mend

Is it good for you?
Is it good for me?
I don't know how the world can sleep
It's just not right to close the door turn out the light

[Chorus]
They'd better be the ones you love
The children ought to get some love
If no-one else should get enough
They'd better be the ones you love

Daddy waits there in line
A little work he hopes to find
Something wrong with times like these
It's enough to bring a man down to his knees

Is it good for you?
Is it good for me?
I don't know how the world can sleep
It's just not right to close the door turn out the light

[Repeat chorus x2]

Thinking of the children
You better be think about the children
Better be, you better be
Better be the ones you love
Better be, you better be
Better be the ones you love
Yeah yeah yeah

Do you believe it what the papers say?
They're driving me insane they push me over my limit
Do you believe it they catch me every time?
It ought to be a crime. Wo, the things they say

There ought to be a reason for turning black to white
Sometimes get the feeling that it's done to spite
They don't need a reason to turn your world around

[Chorus]
I'm waiting for the bell to ring
I want the children to sing
And I'm waiting for the bad man to fall
I'm just about done with it all

Do you believe it, when politicians talk
And make, make the people walk into the fire
Do, you concede, is there no reprieve
From their power game, I know there's someone to blame

We ought to be forgiven for taking in their words
They don't even write them now is that absurd
They don't need a reason to tear your world apart

[Repeat chorus]

And I'm just about done with it all

With it all

And I'm waiting, you know I'm waiting
For the angels to sing for the freedom it brings
For the bad man to fall
When the children call, I want the angels to sing
And I'm just about done with it all

And I'm waiting for the bell to ring
I want the children to sing
And I'm waiting for the bad man to fall
I'm done with it all

I walk the wire every night
I can't decide between wrong and right
I've lost control over the things i do
'Cause I'm hopelessly falling in love with you

Now the one who never took a chance
Becomes a victim of circumstance
I've lost my way, now I'm so confused
'Cause I'm hopelessly falling in love with you

All my dreams are far behind me
They don't matter anymore
I don't care about the things I could lose
'Cause I'm hopelessly falling in love with you

Now the one who always played it safe
Becomes another who's lost his way
I can't believe it, though I know it's true
'Cause I'm hopelessly falling in love with you

And all my dreams begin to blind me
And I was so confused
And I don't care about the things I could lose
'Cause I'm hopelessly falling in love with you

I'm not gonna fight it, I'm gonna choose
To hopelessly fall, oh yeah
You know I'll hopelessly fall in love, with you.

Lately I've been sleeping
Far too long in bed
I've been dreaming of you lover
Oh the things inside my head

I don't want to wake up
I'm scared to break the spell
Oh I'm sleeping like a baby
I hope you sleep so well

You know I'm hoping, hoping

[Bridge]
I know there's a dream for us
I know there's a dream for us
I know there's a dream for us,
Been on our minds
I know there's a dream for us
I know there's a dream for us
I know there's a dream for us,
We're gonna find

[Chorus]
I know there's a dream for us
I believe it's true
In a word, love you
And I'm hoping our dream comes true

You know I'm hoping, hoping

Miracles and moonbeams, wishes on a star
These are things I dream of, I know it sounds bizarre
I see familiar faces, or is it deja vu
The one recurring vision
Is a dream I have of you

You know I'm hoping, hoping

[Repeat bridge]

Come on now baby

[Repeat chorus]

When you find someone you find someone you love
You know you can't believe it
When you find someone you know you can't deceive it
Your love takes you high

I know there's a dream for us
I'm sure there's a dreams for us

Do you ever feel like you are drowning
Do you ever feel like you are going under fast
Do you ever feel that you are wasted
And you need a little confidence to pull you through
Do you ever feel like you are losing
Does it ever feel like you are fighting against the tide
Do you ever feel like you are helpless
and you need somebody who can show you the way

[Chorus]
You know that I'm always with you
You know that I'm by your side
You know that I'm always with you
In body and soul, body and soul

Do you ever feel like you are running
Do you ever feel like you are hiding from the truth
Do you ever feel that you have wasted all the precious time
that you've been given all of our life

[Repeat chorus]

You may get so sad and weary
But you're never going under,
do you ever sit and wonder why I
Always there for you 'cos I won't let them drag
No I won't let them drag you down

Not so long ago my life was oh so easy
I did what I want, said what I want
I did what I want, said what I want
Not so long ago my life was oh so easy
I did what I want, said what I want
I did what I want, and then you came
Once in my life I found a joy like this
One special moment captured in a kiss
For the rest of my life I may never feel like this again, again

[Chorus]
I don't know if I'm ready, I hope I'm strong enough
To be a man that someone can depend on
I don't know if I'm ready, but I know I've got enough love

As the days go by, I see that it's so easy
To do what I want, say what I want,
do what I want, say what I want
As the days go by, yeah I feel that it's so easy
To do what I want, say what I want, do what I want
And only once in my life I may find a joy like this
One special moment captured by a kiss
For the rest of my life I may never feel like this again, again

[Repeat chorus]

I've got enough love, ooh yeah, I've got enough love, ooh

And only once in your life you may feel like this
One special moment captured in a kiss
For the rest of your life you may never feel like this again

Everybody needs a woman in their life
A mother or a sister, a man may need a wife
If you have a woman in your life
Don't take her for granted you'll regret it by and by

[Chorus]
Don't use her or abuse her, or you'll lose her
She filled with emotion, strong as the sea
Deep as an ocean, and she'll always be
So high on her feelings, high on my list
She's everything, she is nature's gift

Give her the attention that she's worthy of
Show her some respect
And don't take advantage of the fact that she loves you

[Repeat chorus]

Mother nature gave us
Mother nature gave us this creation
Mother nature gave us
Mother nature gave us this creation
Someone you can count on,
She'll always be there whenever you need her

[Repeat chorus]

Weary from giving so much of herself
Never complaining, always seems
So high on her feeling, so high on my list
She's everything she is nature's gift

Someone called me just the other day
I thought it was you, but my hopes were washed away
I picked up the telephone, it sent a shiver down my spine
I wanted to hear your voice, and talk about old times

[Chorus]
Remember the days when we walked
The times that we talked for hours and hours
Remember the way it used to be, just you and me
Remember the days

Think it over what I say
I know it could be just like it used to be
Do you believe it baby, do you share my point of view
You know that I mean it baby, and all you have to do is

[Repeat chorus]

What can I do without you, how can I live without you
The day's gonna come, when I'm on the run
So I'm begging you baby please
Remember the days

[Repeat chorus]

What can I do without you, how can I live without you
So come on girl I'm begging you please
Come on and talk to me

The times that we walked
The days that we used to walk out in the park
Remember how it used to be
Do you remember, do you remember how good it used to be

Come on girl, I said come on girl

To the left, to the right, we're gonna rock all night

I went home for the weekend
I saw my friends and my family
I couldn't believe how they'd changed
They where laughing and crying
Feeling all the joy in life
It was so good to feel it too
And I know just how it feels
I know just what it means

[Chorus]
When you love someone, it feels so right
When you love someone, they hold you tight
When you love someone, it feels so good
When you love someone, it's understood

A couple having a baby
Are giving life to the love they feel
They count the days expectantly
And they, they know just how it feels
Yeah they do, and they, they know just what it means
Just what it means

[Repeat chorus]

It's just about time for a change
It's just about time for me to rearrange
Just about time for a change
It's just about time for me to rearrange my life

I toss and turn
I'm turning round
But I cannot sleep
I'm hypnotized
I'm paralyzed
By a different beat
I hear your voice
Getting louder now
Yet so out of reach
But I'm mistaken
It's only the echo of you

And I'm not sleeping
Now that you're gone
I can't help feeling
I did you wrong
And the night goes on and on'

A crowded bar
The mating game
So I'm out of place
It's so bizarre
She's coming up to me
But I see your face
The DJ plays familiar songs
And it takes me back
But I'm mistaken
It's only the echo of you

And I'm not sleeping
Now that you're gone
I can't help feeling
I did you wrong
And I need healing
It's been so long
And the night goes on and on'

I hear your voice
I hear your voice calling
I hear your voice, on and on'

I toss and turn
I'm turning round
But I just can't sleep

Now that you're gone

And I need healing

At Least It Started Out That Way
Two Ordinary People
Sharing Thoughts At The End Of The Day

Was It The Wine That Made Her Sparkle Made Her Shine
I Crossed That Line It Was Only Meant To Be

A One Night Stand
Here I Am With Empty Hands
Wasn't Looking For Love And I Knew From The Start
It Was A One Night Stand

She Was Only Passing Through
But It Suited Me Just Fine
Emotional Attachment Never Crossed My Mind

Was It The Light That Played A Trick On My Mind
I Crossed That Line It Was Only Meant To Be

She Was Only Passing Through

Starry, starry night
Paint your palette blue and gray
Look out on a summers day
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul...
Shadows on the hills
Sketch the trees and the daffodils
Catch the breeze and the winter chills
In colours on the snowy linen land.

Now I understand
What you tried to say, to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free:
They would not listen; they did not know how --
Perhaps theyll listen now.

Starry, starry night
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in violet haze
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
Colours changing hue
Morning fields of amber grain
Weathered faces lined in pain
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand.

Now I understand
What you tried to say, to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free:
They would not listen; they did not know how --
Perhaps they'll listen now.

For they could not love you
But still, your love was true
And when no hope was left inside
On that starry, starry night
You took your life as lovers often do --
But I could've told you, Vincent:
This world was never meant
For one as beautiful as you.

And I love you so.
The people ask me how,
How I've lived till now.
I tell them I don't know.

I guess they understand
How lonely life has been.
But life began again
The day you took my hand.

And, yes, I know how lonely life can be.
The shadows follow me, and the night won't set me free.
But I don't let the evening get me down
Now that you're around me.

And you love me, too.
Your thoughts are just for me;
You set my spirit free.
I'm happy that you do.

The book of life is brief
And once a page is read,
All but love is dead.
That is my belief.

And, yes, I know how loveless life can be.
The shadows follow me, and the night won't set me free.
But I don't let the evening bring me down
Now that you're around me.

And I love you so.
The people ask me how,
How I've lived till now.
I tell them, "i don't know."

There could never be a portrait of my love,
For nobody can paint a dream.
You will never see a portrait of my love,
For miracles are never seen.

Anyone who sees her
Soon forgets the Mona Lisa.

It would take, I know, a Michelangelo
And he would need the glow of dawn
That paints the skies above
To try and paint a portrait of my love.

Where do I begin
To tell the story of how great a love can be
The sweet love story that is older than the sea
The simple truth about the love she brings to me
Where do I start

With her first hello
She gave new meaning to this empty world of mine
There'll never be another love, another time
She came into my life and made the living fine
She fills my heart

She fills my heart with very special things
With angels' songs , with wild imaginings
She fills my soul with so much love
That everywhere I go I'm never lonely
With you my love, who could be lonely
I reach for her hand-it's always there

How long does it last
Can love be measured by the hours in a day
I have no answers now but this much I can say
I know I'll need her till the stars all burn away
And she'll be there

A cigarette that bears a lipstick's traces
An airline ticket to romantic places
And still my heart has wings
These foolish things remind me of you

A tinkling piano in the next apartment
Those stumblin' words that told you what my heart meant
A fairground's painted swings
These foolish things remind me of you

You came, you saw, you conquered me
When you did that to me
I knew somehow this had to be

The winds of March that make my heart a dancer
A telephone that rings but who's to answer?
Oh, how the ghost of you clings
These foolish things remind me of you

How strange, how sweet, to find you still
These things are dear to me
They seem to bring you near to me

The sigh of midnight trains in empty stations
Silk stockings thrown aside, dance invitations
Oh, how the ghost of you clings
These foolish things remind me of you

Now you say you're lonely
You cried the long night through
Well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried a river over you

Now you say you're sorry
For being so untrue
Well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried, cried, cried a river over you

You drove me, nearly drove me, out of my head
While you never shed a tear
Remember, I remember, all that you said
You told me love was too plebeian
Told me you were through with me and

Now you say, you say you love me
Well, just to prove that you do
Come on and cry me a river, cry me a river
'Cause I cried a river over you

You drove me, nearly drove me, out of my head
While you never shed a tear
Remember, remember, all that you said
Told me love was too plebeian
Told me you were through with me and

Now, now you say you love me
Well, just to prove you do
Come on and cry, cry, cry me a river, cry me a river
'Cause I cried a river over you

If my pillow talk, imagine what it would have said
Could it be a river of tears I cried in bed?
So you can cry me a river
Daddy, go ahead and cry that river
'Cause I cried, how I cried a river over you
How I cried a river over you

There was a boy
A very strange enchanted boy
They say he wandered very far, very far
Over land and sea
A little shy and sad of eye
But very wise was he

And then one day
A magic day he passed my way
And while we spoke of many things
Fools and kings
This he said to me
"The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return"

"The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return"

Why do birds suddenly appear every time you are near?
Just like me they long to be close to you
Why do stars fall down from the sky every time you walk by?
Just like me they long to be close to you

On the day that you were born
The angels got together and decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair
Of gold and starlight in your eyes of blue

That is why all the boys in town follow you all around
Just like me they long to be close to you
Just like me they long to be close to you

See the pyramids along the Nile.
Watch the sunrise from a tropic isle.
Just remember, darling, all the while
You belong to me.

See the marketplace in old Algiers.
Send me photographs and souvenirs.
Just remember when a dream appears
You belong to me.

I'll be so alone without you.
Maybe you'll be lonesome, too.
And blue.

Fly the ocean in a silver plane.
See the jungle when it's wet with rain.
Just remember till your home again
You belong to me.

Breaking up is so very hard to do

If you really love him
And there's nothing I can do
Don't try to spare my feelings
Just tell me that we're through

And make it easy on yourself
Make it easy on yourself
'Cause breaking up is so very hard to do

And if the way I hold you
Can't compare to his caress
No words of consolation
Will make me miss you less

My darling, if this is goodbye
I just know I'm gonna cry
So run to him
Before you start crying too

And make it easy on yourself
Make it easy on yourself
'Cause breaking up is so very hard to do

Oh, baby, it's so hard to do

There's a place for us
Somewhere a place for us
Peace and quiet and open air
Wait for us
Somewhere

There's a time for us
Some day a time for us
Time together and time to spare
Time to look, time to care
Someday
Somewhere

We'll find a new way of living
We'll find there's a way of forgiving
Somewhere

There's a place for us
A time and place for us
Hold my hand and we're halfway there
Hold my hand and I'll take you there
Somehow
Someday
Somewhere

There's a place for us
Hold my hand and we're halfway there
Hold my hand and I'll take you there
Somehow
Someday

Wise men say, only fools rush in.
But I can't help falling in love with you
Shall I stay?
Would it be a sin?
I can't help falling in love with you

As the river flows gently to the sea
Darling so we go, some things were meant to be
Take my hand take my whole heart too
'Cause I can't help falling in love with you

As the river flows gently to the sea
Darling so we go, some things were meant to be
Take my hand take my whole heart too
'Cause I can't help falling in love with you

What the world needs now,
Is love, sweet love,
It's the only thing that there's just too little of.
What the world needs now,
Is love, sweet love,
No, not just for some but for everyone.

Lord, we don't need another mountain,
There are mountains and hillsides enough to climb,
There are oceans and rivers enough to cross,
Enough to last 'till the end of time.

What the world needs now,
Is love, sweet love,
It's the only thing that there's just too little of.
What the world needs now,
Is love, sweet love,
No, not just for some but for everyone.

Lord, we don't need another meadow,
There are cornfields and wheat fields enough to grow,
There are sunbeams and moonbeams enough to shine,
Oh listen Lord, if you want to know, oh

What the world needs now,
Is love, sweet love,
It's the only thing that there's just too little of.
What the world needs now,
Is love, sweet love,
No, not just for some oh but just for every, every, everyone.

What the world needs now,
Is love, sweet love.
What the world needs now,
Is love, sweet love.
What the world needs now,
Is love, sweet love.

We were young and drinking in the park
There was nowhere else to go
And you said you always had my back
Oh but how were we to know

That these are the days that bind you together, forever
And these little things define you forever, forever

All this bad blood here, won’t you let it dry?
It’s been over for years, wont you let it lie?

If we’re only ever looking back
We will drive ourselves insane
As the friendship goes resentment grows
We will walk our different ways

But those are the days that bind us together, forever
And those little things define us forever, forever

All this bad blood here, won’t you let it dry?
It’s been over for years, wont you let it lie?

And I don’t wanna hear about the bad blood anymore
I don’t wanna hear you talk about it anymore
I don’t wanna hear about the bad blood anymore
I don’t wanna hear you talk about it anymore

All this bad blood here, won’t you let it dry?
It’s been over for years, wont you let it lie?

When all of your flaws and all of my flaws
Are laid out one by one
A wonderful part of the mess that we made
We pick ourselves undone

All of your flaws and all of my flaws
They lie there hand in hand
Ones we've inherited, ones that we learned
They pass from man to man

There's a hole in my soul
I can't fill it I can't fill it
There's a hole in my soul
Can you fill it? Can you fill it?

You have always worn your flaws upon your sleeve
And I have always buried them deep beneath the ground
Dig them up; let's finish what we've started
Dig them up, so nothing's left unturned

All of your flaws and all of my flaws,
When they have been exhumed
We'll see that we need them to be who we are
Without them we'd be doomed

There's a hole in my soul
I can't fill it I can't fill it
There's a hole in my soul
Can you fill it? Can you fill it?

You have always worn your flaws upon your sleeve
And I have always buried them deep beneath the ground
Dig them up; let's finish what we've started
Dig them up, so nothing's left unturned

Oooooh
Oooooh

When all of your flaws
And all of my flaws are counted
When all of your flaws
And all of my flaws are counted

You have always worn your flaws upon your sleeve
And I have always buried them deep beneath the ground
Dig them up. Let's finish what we've started
Dig them up. So nothing's left unturned

Oooooh
Oooooh

All of your flaws and all of my flaws
Are laid out one by one
Look at the wonderful mess that we made
We pick ourselves undone

(Knowledge is power)

Sometimes it gets so hard to listen
Hard for me to use my eyes
And all around the gold is glistening
Making sure it keeps me down to size

I don't wanna know 'bout evil
Only wanna know about love
I don't wanna know a thing about evil
Only wanna know about love

(Knowledge is power)

I'm waitin' for the planes to tumble
Waitin' for the towns to fall
I'm waitin' for the cities to crumble
Waitin' till I see you crawl

I don't wanna know 'bout evil
Only wanna know about love
I don't wanna know 'bout evil
Only wanna know about love
I don't wanna know 'bout evil
Only wanna know about love
I don't wanna know a thing about evil

Only wanna know about love

I don't wanna know 'bout evil
Only wanna know about love

And yes it's getting hard to listen
Hard for me to use my eyes
And all around the gold is glistening
Making sure it keeps us hyp-n-o-tized

I don't wanna know 'bout evil
Only wanna know about love
I don't wanna know 'bout evil
Only wanna know about love
I don't wanna know 'bout evil
Only wanna know about love
I don't wanna know a thing about evil
Only wanna know about love
I don't wanna know 'bout evil
Only wanna know about love
I don't wanna know 'bout evil
Only wanna know about love
I don't wanna know a thing about evil
Only wanna know about love
I don't wanna know 'bout evil

You touched my hand
Said, "Follow me
I'll be your eyes when you cannot see"
Now the only blindness that I'm gonna choose
Is ignorance to all your misuse

There was a time when you held all the cards
And you felt them all evenly 'cause I couldn't see
You read my mind
Left yourself so hard to find
I thought you knew me better than I knew myself

Spend your time cutting me down
When it's plain to see it's faith that will carry
Spend your time cutting me down
When it's plain to see it's faith that will carry
Spend your time cutting me down (you touched my hand)
When it's plain to see it's faith that will carry
Spend your time cutting me down (I'll be your eyes)
When it's plain to see it's faith that will carry

I could try talkin' to you but I already learned all I need to
Spend your time cutting me down
Don't listen to a word then you throw me a frown
To catch the eye of a stranger is nothing new
I was just waitin' for something to do
It was a twisted pair but now I'm through

Spend your time cutting me down (you touched my hand)
When it's plain to see it's faith that will carry (said it's faith that will carry)
Spend your time cutting me down (I'll be your eyes)
When it's plain to see it's faith that will carry
Spend your time cutting me down (you read my mind)
When it's plain to see it's faith that will carry (left yourself so hard to find)
Spend your time cutting me down (I thought you knew me better)
When it's plain to see it's faith that will carry (than I knew myself)

You touched my hand
Said, "Follow me
I'll be your eyes when you cannot see"
Now the only blindness that I'm gonna choose

Look at the priest and the blood and the fire??
Weighted down with metal, I wonder why?
Haven't we moved further in time
Haven't we advanced along the line

Yesterday is gone
Yesterday is gone
Let it fade away
Blind chances of destiny

Yesterday is gone
Yesterday is gone
Let it fade away
Blind chances of destiny

Isn't it the scheme of love to take
Wouldn't my life remain the same
Wonder if my God could take the blame
Time's the only voodoo dreams can change

Yesterday is gone
Yesterday is gone
Let it fade away
Blind chances of destiny

Yesterday is gone
Yesterday is gone
Let it fade away
Blind chances of destiny

Let your mind go free

Yesterday is gone
Yesterday is gone
Let it fade away
Blind chances of destiny

Yesterday is gone
Yesterday is gone
Let it fade away
Blind chances of destiny

Falling from the western slopes to find yourself alone again
Wonderin' where you have been
Your lonely voice calls across the starlit coast
Reaching out to be seen

She cries your name
Three times again
She cries your name
How long can this love remain?

Scratch beneath the surface screen of what we say and what we see
Is there truth to be seen?
She's cryin' out your name
But her scream sounds the same
How fickle fate can be

She cries your name
Three times again
She cries your name
How long can this love remain?

Birds which scream for territory can learn to sing euphorically
Given time that is real
There's a wasteland in his soul
The burned out trees will leave you cold
Living out beside the hill

She cries your name
Three times again
She cries your name
How long can this love remain?

She cries your name
Three times again
She cries your name
How long can this love remain?

She cries your name
Twelve times again
She cries your name
How long can this love remain?

When you wake in the morning
[?] blue
See the sun replace the moon
It isn't hard to do

When the light shines
Everything you are
And the light shines
It's there for you my love

Doo-dah-doo...

When you wake in the morning
Leave the shadows where they lie
Make the changes right away
Tomorrow is today

When the light shines
Everything you are
And the light shines
It's there for you my love

Doo-dah-doo...

She said I put a spell on you
He said there's nothin' I could do
And I wouldn't love the way I do if I didn't know that it was true
And I'd never love the way I do since I began losing you
And nothing can compare to when you roll the dice and you swear your loves for me
And she don't know if she can keep it together forever

She said I only want to possess you, it's dangerous
He said I only try to impress you, it's strangeness
And I wouldn't love the way I do if I didn't know that it was true
And I'd never love the way I do since I began losing you
Nothing can compare to when you roll the dice and you swear your loves for me
And she don't know if she can keep it together forever
And nothing can compare to when you roll the dice and you swear your loves for me
And she don't know if she can keep it together forever.

It was the sound of the city that was making me blue
I kept hearing it and I'd think of you
Wherever you go and whatever you do I'll be with you
I'll be with you

Summer's burning (up inside)
Left alone (to gag then tie)
Here comes the rain
Just when you never thought you'd lose your way again

When it's so wrong
It has to be, nobody has won
We will soon be free
The prisoner is history
We will soon be free
The prisoner is history

Yea...

You've been lost and you've been found
This time you've gotta stand your ground
Here comes your train
Just when you never thought you'd catch that ride again

When it's so wrong
It has to be, everybody's gone
We will soon be free
The prisoner is history
We will soon be free
The prisoner is history

Yea...

Now when I need you
You're nowhere around
Just when I'm going then
You're taking a trip down town
How do you fly so far
With the world in disguise
Do the people around you
Put you to where they need you

Where do you go
When the wind doesn't blow
Are you still like the trees
Only bend with a breeze

I long to smell you
To feel you within
I need you near to me
Just the touch of your skin
I want to hear you
And tell you again
But so much can happen
Makes it harder to explain

Where do you go
When the wind doesn't blow
Are you still like the trees
Only bend with a breeze

You think I need no one
You're always around
Turning on a sixpence
Locked in the crowd
Now when I need you
You're nowhere around
Just when I'm going down
You're takin' a trip down town

Where do you go
When the wind doesn't blow
Are you still like the trees
Only bend with a breeze.

That we must fly is a ?? thing
And nothin' can stay forever locked in
I'll take your blame like a ball and a chain
I'll wear it 'round my neck
I won't feel no shame

Breakin' waves on the shore
It turned then fade once more
Release me from this love
If it's ours it'll come
Release me from this love
If it's ours it'll come
Release me
Release me from this love

Don't want no sympathy
Draggin' me down
Makin' me sorry
When we can wake up and see
All that we never knew to be

Breakin' waves on the shore
It turned then fade once more
Release me from this love
(Release me from this love)
If it's ours it'll come
Release me from this love
(Set me free with your love)
If it's ours it'll come
Release me
Release me from this love

Breakin' waves on the shore
It turned then fade once more
Release me from this love
(Release me from this love)
If it's ours it'll come
Release me from this love
(Set me free with your love)
If it's ours it'll come
Release me from this love

Release me
Release me from this love
Release me
Set me free with your love
