I hit the coast with the faith of a preacherman
I saw a ghost with a face like a madman
I had this dream I was sleeping at the Royal Ball
I hit the streets
hey watch me in the monitor!
I saw a clone who looked just like a senator
I checked the clock I felt that it was time to go go go

Then came you
Why did you keep me waiting so long?
Why did you keep me waiting so long?
Why did you keep me waiting so long?

I was a spy I was captured by the enemies
I made a million selling secret fantasies
I saw my love wasted in a pale grey zone
I was the quake shaking every monument
I had to fi-find out what all the money meant
I checked the sun I knew that it was time to go go go

Then came you
Why did you keep me waiting so long?
Why did you keep me waiting so long?
Why did you keep me waiting so long?

Breathe some faith into my chest
lay me down i need the rest
ever since the sky turned grey
I’ve waited for the perfect day

Hey now
– it seems you’ve always touched me
like the sun

There’s no escape for the broken-hearted
there’s no return once you’ve lost your way
I say a prayer now our love’s departed
that you’ll come back to stay
and bring the perfect day

Blinded by a crazy light
I fell into the darkest night
those magic ties the two of us
I couldn’t see it turn to dust

Hey now
– it seems you’ve always reached me
like the sun

There’s no escape for the broken-hearted
there’s no return once you’ve lost your way
I say a prayer now your love’s departed
that you’ll come back to stay
bring back the perfect day

I’m a zombie in the moonlight
I’m sleepin’ when it’s daylight
I really should be alright
but I’m feelin’ kinda uptight
I’m messin’ with a neighbour
who killed my amp and Fender
he looked to sweet and tender
it’s hard to tell his gender
got coffee on the paper
my dog’s an alligator
I want you now and later

I got a crush got a crush on you
got a crush got a crush on you

I’m rentin’ the wrong movie
I’m laughin’ at the wrong guy
I’m drivin’ on the wrong side
my brain is gettin’ cock-eyed
the flag is never chequered
can’t find my F-beat records
God, give a little lovin’
the money’s in the oven
got dead flies in my scotch with ice
my talents always vaporize
I want your bird of paradise

I got a crush got a crush on you
Got a crush got a crush on you

Crush! Crush! We got a good thing goin’ on
Crush! Crush! Such a good thing goin’ on

I’m freezin’ in the summer
I’m sweatin’ in the winter
no middle in the centre
no colours in the printer
no treatment at the pharmacy
no lessons learned from history
no future in the factory
no meaning in the poetry
no changin’ in the weather
no Elvis in the leather
I want you now or never

I got a crush got a crush on you
got a crush got a crush on you

Halfway through the night
I wake up in a dream
Echoes in my head
Make every whisper turn into a scream

I dreamed I could fly
Out in the blue
Over this town
Following you
Over the trees
Subways and cars
I’d try to find out
Who you really are

In the middle of the night
Cool sweatin’ in my bed
Got the windows open wide
Thinkin’ about all the things you said

I wish I could fly
Out in the blue
Over this town
Following you
I’d fly over rooftops
The great boulevards
To try to find out
Who you really are
Who you really are

I wish I could fly now
Wish I could fly now
Wish I could fly now

I wish I could fly
Around and around
Over this town
The dirt on the ground
I’d follow your course
Of doors left ajar
To try to find out
Who you really are

To try to find out
Who you really are

I saw red stayed at home
Placed a big pillow over the phone
In this town where I’m from
I’ve learned two is so much better than one

But you left me alone
You can’t put your arms around what’s already gone
Watch you sink like a stone
You can’t put your arms around what’s already gone

Well you hurt to the core
You used to kiss like no one had done before
And your taste turned me on
Now you drive me real crazy just by being born

Cos you left (left left left) me alone (left me alone)
And you can’t put your arms around what’s already gone
Watch you sink like a stone
You can’t put your arms around what’s already gone

Baba b-baba b-baba ba
Baba b-baba b-baba ba

Took the tram ’round the bay
Where everyone tells you to have a nice day
And my pride almost broke
When the tears don’t fit you
you look like a joke

And you left (left left left) me alone (left me alone)
You can’t put your arms around what’s already gone
Cryin’ eyes gettin’ worn
You can’t put your arms around what’s already gone

Hey you left (left left left) me alone (left me alone)
You can’t put your arms around what’s already gone
Watch you sink like a stone
You can’t put your arms around what’s already gone

Baba b-baba b-baba ba
Baba b-baba b-baba ba

I’m waiting for the rain
I’m waiting for you
I’m waiting for the rain
to clean my soul
I’m waiting for the rain
nothing’s gonna be better
without you

The day you left me
the day you came
I’ll never forget you
feel you in my pain
the time stood still
the time was flying
I wonder why
I’m not dying

I’m waiting for the sun
I’m waiting for a new day
I’m waiting for the night
to close my eyes
I’m waiting for the dark
oh it’s gonna be harder
without you

The way we danced
I’ll always miss
I’ll never forget
the way we kissed
the time stood still
the time was flying
I wonder why
I’m not dying

Na na na na na
Na na na na na

Anyone who have a love close to this
knows what I’m saying
anyone who wants a dream to come true
knows how I’m feeling

All I can think of is you and me
doing the things I wanna do
all I imagine is heaven on earth
I know it’s you

Anyone who ever kissed in the rain
knows the whole meaning
anyone who ever stood in the light
needs no explaining

But everything more or less appears so meaningless
blue and cold
walking alone through the afternoon traffic
I miss you so

Anyone who felt like I do
anyone who wasn’t ready to fall
anyone who loved like I do
knows it never really happens at all
it’s over when it’s over
what can I do about it
now that it’s over

Everything more or less is looking so meaningless
and fades to grey
lying awake in an ocean of teardrops
I float away

Anyone who ever felt like I do
anyone who wasn’t ready to fall
anyone who loved like I do
knows it never really happens at all
it’s over when it’s over
what can I do about it
now it’s all over

Sunny called
I was in the hall
and made a note
I have to paint the kitchen walls
an angel smiled across the room
all in all it was a lazy afternoon

Then I thought about you
I think it was some sweet song that I heard

Got to get goin’ goin’ ahead
it will take a long, long time
got to go ahead and deal with my life
it has taken such a long time this time

Sunny called
I was in the bath
and heard the rain hit the roof and tiles
real hard (hit the roof real hard/hit the roof)
then I ran through my magazines
a few letters poorly hidden in a jar
(hidden in a jar/oh what a jar!)

And I thought about you
it must have been some old pictures I found

Got to get goin’ goin’ ahead
It will take a long, long time, yea yea
got to go ahead and deal with my life
it has taken such a long time this time

Inganakee leo yo

It’s no secret I’ve been waiting
but I didn’t expect this
nothing will remain
nothing stays the same
after you came

It’s no secret I’ve been starving
I never felt anything for years
I sat up all night
just to watch your smile
when you’re sleeping

I was so lucky you came by
and turned a different corner
I could’ve been somewhere else
you could’ve passed by
could’ve passed by

Come on and sail the sea with me
come on let’s go around the world
maybe find a flat
or a canyon house
for the season

I was so lucky you came by
and turned a different corner
it could’ve been someone else
you had in mind
I was so lucky you found me
my rags turned gold and silver
I could’ve been somewhere else
you could’ve passed by
could’ve passed by

What would you make of this, my baby?
The sun through the trees
Is there a better place to be?

I was so lucky you came by
and turned a different corner
it could have been someone else
you had in mind, oh my
I was so lucky you picked me
my trash turned to silver
yea, I could have been somewhere else
you could’ve passed by
could’be passed by

You keep on walkin’ on the other side
other side other side
you keep on walkin’ on the other side
other side other side

Wherever you go I’m going with you
shouldn’t you know I’m bound to follow
whatever you say whatever you do
I give you a clue I’m gonna follow

And the stars will show
where the waters flow
where the gardens grow
that’s where I’ll meet you

Why don’t you let me let me come along
na na na na na na
why don’t you open make me come along
na na na na na na

Wherever you go I’m going for you
oh I was truly born to follow
like fire and wood and paper and glue
only a few were born to follow

And the stars will show
where the waters flow
where the gardens grow
that’s where I’ll meet you
and the sun will glow
melting all the snow
knowing all I know
that’s where I’ll meet you

Stars will show
where the waters flow
where the gardens grow
that’s where I’ll meet you
and the sun will glow
melting all the snow

every breeze will blow
knowing all I know

Take the line between us and hold it close to you
I want us to get together like lovers do
Let me kiss away your troubles the cold and lonely nights
just take this heart I’m giving and love is on the rise

Like lovers do – want to hold you through the night
Like lovers do – and when I look into your eyes
Like lovers do – oh I’m drowning in an ocean of emotion

It feels just like forever since I made love to you
September days of scarlet April morning dew
So take the love between us and hold it close to you
I want us to get together like lovers do

Like lovers do – want to hold you through the night
Like lovers do – and when I look into your eyes
Like lovers do – oh I’m drowning in an ocean of emotion
Like lovers do – want to hold you through the night
Like lovers do – and when I look into your eyes
Like lovers do – oh I’m drowning in an ocean of emotion
Like lovers do – want to hold you through the night
Like lovers do – and when I look into your eyes
Like lovers do – oh I’m drowning in an ocean of emotion
Like lovers do – want to hold you through the night
Like lovers do – and when I look into your eyes
Like lovers do – oh I’m drowning in an ocean of emotion

I got to get a message through
I don’t know where we’re going
I wrap my arms around your naked shoulders
take cover for the night

I see you in the morning rain
oh step inside and lay beside me
tender can you close my eyes and blind me
oh give me just a smile…

Before I fade to silver
silver Blue for you
before I fade to silver
Silver Blue for you

I’ve turned into The Broken One
who lost the inspiration
I want to give you all my love
like water to a blood red rose
the Passion – I can’t deal with her
the Pain – well I can do without him
and this is like the milky way
an ocean that only grows and grows

And babe I fade to silver
Silver Blue for you
I turn and fade to silver
Silver Blue for you

I wrap my arms around your naked shoulders
take cover for the night

Es así
la veo sonreir con ojos distraidos
quieta en una esquina
como si yo no estuviera allí

Creo yo que el juego para dos
los dos el mismo juego
pero no se da
de pronto ya no está
y no me deja ni un adiós

Ella es tímida
se esfuma si la ves
ella es tímida
por eso es como es
yo no soy capaz de lastimar su corazón
ella es tímida
más que tímida

Fíjate
la quiero pero sé
que es dulce
y vulnerable tan frágil como hilos de cristal
no quireo hacerle mal

Conozco sus secretos pero no
la voy a hacer sufrir
porque es tan débil como un pétalo de flor
y su dolor me duele a mí

Ella es tímida
se esfuma si la ves
ella es tímida
por eso es como es
yo no soy capaz de lastimar su corazón
ella es tímida
más que tímida

Yeah! Ella es así

Ella es tímida
se esfuma si la ves
ella es tímida
por eso es como es
yo no soy capaz de lastimar su corazón
ella es tímida
se esfuma si la ves

Ella es tímida
por eso es como es
yo no soy capaz de lastimar su corazón
Ella es tímida
más que tímida

En realidad yo dudo tanto de tí
por más que intento no me dejo llevar
pruebo tu amor y me siento fatal
pero yo te quiero
bien o mal

Habla el corazón que no sabe mentir
habla el corazón a todas horas de tí
oigo cosas bonitas y presto atención
habla el corazón y yo escucho su voz

A veces pienso que no hay nada que hacer
que tú y que tenemos poco que ver
pero al final habla el corazón dica que te quiero
óyelo

Habla el corazón que no sabe mentir
habla el corazón a todas horas de tí
oigo cosas bonitas y presto atención
habla el corazón y yo escucho su voz
oigo las voces que hablan de tí
yo no te quiero y ellas dicen que si
soy obediente sé que tienen razón
dejo que hable mi corazón

Habla el corazón que no sabe mentir
habla el corazón a todas horas de tí
oigo cosas bonitas presto atención.
habla el corazón y yo… Oh

Habla el corazón que no sabe mentir
habla el corazón a todas horas de tí
oigo cosas bonitas y presto atención
habla el corazón y yo…
escucho su voz

Spanish lyrics: Luis G. Escolar – Jimmy Fun Music

Tantas emociones sin vivir
tanto desarmor
aquí entró nunca el sol

Cuántas ilusines íntimas sin compensaciones
corazón cómo te pones
pasé por la vida sin pisar, sin amar

La gota perdida que se va, que se va, ya no está
como la lluvia en el cristal

Cuántas veces he sufrido soledad
cuántas veces he caído por confesar la verdad
he dado tanto amor mm tanta pasión
como loca por la vida sin control, sin salida
pasé por la vida sin pisar, sin amar

La gota perdida que se va, que se va, ya no está
como la lluvia en el cristal
como la lluvia en el cristal
como la lluvia en el cristal

Puede ser que la tonta sea yo
que sin saberlo algo falló
puede que si… puede que no

El caso es que mi vida va al revés que
que me arrepiento siempre después
cuando no hay nada que hacer

Soy una mujer y a veces me equivoco
porque me fío de mi corazón
soy una mujer y por amor
yo soy capaz de todo
soy así impulsiva y natural
en el fondo persona normal para bien o para mal

Soy una mujer, si, y a veces me equivoco
porque me fío de mi corazón
soy una mujer y por amor yo soy capaz de todo
soy capaz de todo
soy capaz de todo hasta de perder

Soy una mujer si me quieres tener
no juegues con mi amor
Oh… no juegues con mi amor

Soy una mujer si y a veces me equivoco
porque me fío de mi corazón
Soy una mujer
y por amor yo soy capaz de todo

Soy una mujer y a veces me equivoco
porque me fío de mi corazón
soy una mujer

Lo mucho que viví te lo debo a tí
no sé por qué
lo que yo sentí
lo sentí por tí
no sé por qué
en mi vida tuve mil elecciones
pero siempre ser como tú

Quiero ser como tú igual que tú
ni mejor ni peor
igualita que tú
quiero ser como tú igual que tú
necesito cruzar tu mar nadando
hasta donde tú estás

Todo lo que ví
lo aprendí de tí
no sé por qué
lo que puedo recordar
me recuerda a tí
no sé por qué
en mi vida tuve mil elecciones

Quiero ser como tú igual que tú

Una puerta más
una llave más y todas me llevan a tí
hace tiempo que tu casa abrí
y no te encontré

Yo sentí el perfume del amor
me enamorado de tí
pero tú no

Hay un día para querer y un día para olvidar
una reina va detrás de un rey

Una casa más
una cama más
y todas me llevan a tí
todas las abrí
y las dormí y nunca te encontré

Yo sentí las alas del amor
me he enamorado de tí y tú no

Hay un día para querer y un día para olvidar
una reina va detrás de un rey

Hay un día para ser y un día para recordar
una reina va detrás de un rey

Yo no sé cuántas cosas olvidaré
pero de tí me acordaré

Hay un día para ser y un día para recordar
una reina va detrás de un rey
una reina va detrás de un rey
una reina va detrás de un rey

Día gris sin ilusión.
dónde va mi corazón
necesito descansar
este no es un día más

Sola, desolada, esperando al sol
anímate que lo malo pasa
así es la ley, esa es la verdad
porque no hay mal que cien años dure
espera con valor el día del amor

qué más da, cómo te va
a veces bien, a veces mal
nada que hacer, solo esperar y sabe Dios lo que vendrá
sola, desolada, esperando al sol
anímate que lo malo pasa.
así es la ley, esa es la verdad
porque no hay mal que cien años dure
espera con valor el día del amor
Oh oh..oh oh..

Sola, desolada, esperando al sol
anímate que lo malo pasa
así es la ley, esa es la verdad
porque no hay mal que cien años dure
espera con valor el día del amor…
el día del amor

My girl came home to me
just the other day, acting OK
I was reading alone
in my favourite room, the TV was on
may I be excused
for not telling the truth
‘cos she’s gone, she said
she’s better off on her own

She turned her head
much better off on her own
my girl knocked on the door
to the place I usually refer to as home
I died, shoelace untied
she looked in my eyes, small and surprised
and God closed every gaze
the moon fell into the lake
Boy, she’s gone, a drift
she’s better off on her own

She closed, then she left
much better off on her own

Sitting naked by the windowsill
watching cars upon the hill
am I sleeping?
I was dreaming
for just a moment time stood still
better off on her own
better off on her own
now she’s gone, she said
she’s better of on her own
she turned her head
much better off on her own
she’s gone, she sighed
she’s better of on her own
the tears I cried
much better off on her own
my girl came home to me just the other day

What am I gonna do when I get a little excited
a little in pain? Tell me
What am I gonna say when I find the centre of my heart
is a suburb to the brain?

You wear them so well those innocent eyes
You’re puttin’ on a wonderful disguise
I want you so bad. I’m pushing my luck
It feels like being hit by a truck
This is no place special. Don’t know why I came
If someone has a minute won’t you explain

What am I gonna do when I get a little excited
a little in pain? Tell me
What am I gonna say when I find the centre of my heart
is a suburb to the brain?

na nana nana na
na nana nana na

Being with you; dealing with fire
Oh won’t you come around (come out)
come out (today) and play
(I want you so bad)
Answer my calls
Let’s spend the night within these walls
This is no place special.
Nothing for the saying (Nothing for the saying)
If someone’s got minute; do please explain

What am I gonna do when I get a little excited
a little in vain? Tell me
What am I gonna say when I find the centre of my heart
is a suburb to the brain?

na nana nana na
na nana nana na

What am I gonna do when I get a little excited
a little in vain? Tell me. Tell me. Tell me. Tell me
What am I gonna do when I get a little excited

What am I gonna say when I find the centre of my heart
is a suburb to the brain?

na nana nana na

What am I gonna to do

What am I gonna do when I get a little excited
a little in vain?

The centre of my heart
Yeah yeah yeah

What am I gonna say when I find the centre of my heart
is a suburb to the brain?
What am I gonna do now?
What am I gonna say when I find the centre of my heart

Every shape of every word you say that
breaks the silence of an ordinary day
every look that seems to mystify
every single smile that spins me to the sky

It makes me wanna run
it makes me wanna hide
cos you’re the only one that makes me come alive
it’s getting closer now and darker by the hour

It only goes to show that here it comes
here comes the weekend and I’m on my own again
with a Saturday in the rain
here it comes
here comes the weekend
the fine line from pleasure to pain
is making me cry
when will I see you again?

Every breath
every vision you make
every chance in love you love to take
every move that seems to alter my world
every dream I’ve had about this boy and this girl

It makes me wanna run
it makes me wanna hide
cos you’re the only one that makes my love alive
and time is running fast into a new goodbye

It only goes to show that here it comes
here comes the weekend
another walk down that lonely lane
another Sunday that feels the same
here it comes
here comes the weekend
the fine line from pleasure to pain
is making me cry
When will I see you again?

I came in crawling
with an absent-minded smile
I had so many things untied that summer night
when I decided it was worth another try

Entering your heart.. ohh yeah

The clock turned seven
it was cold and damp outside
but sort of strange considering
it was July
But it helped convincing me I had, I had to to try

Entering your heart…

Close your eyes
don’t say a word
all your thoughts must go unheard
and I…
have failed so many times…
entering your mind…
entering your mind…

I’m not the most important one under the sun
I don’t have any power connections to the Pentagon
but I’ve got something of my own
that must get done

Entering you heart
ohhh… entering your heart
close your eyes
don’t tell a soul…
all you dreams must be told…
and I…
have failed so many times…
entering you mind…
entering you mind

ohhh…
ohhh…

I…
have failed so many times…
entering your mind…
entering your mind…
ohhh… entering you heart
woah.. entering you heart

Right at the front door
I recognized the perfume
the scent was perfect in the dusk by the moon
there must be many ways
to ask her to my room
why didn’t I dare?

Well every hour
I try to get somethin’ done
out on the weekend
when I’m just havin’ some fun
I’m windin’ up with none
just zeroes, no 1’s
just space with no air

I get: “Bye-bye baby-baby bye baby-baby bye-bye…”

Real sugar
I don’t wanna climb the walls
Real sugar
that’s what I want or none at all
Real sugar
sweet as a sweet can be
Real sugar
that’s what I want and what I need
that’s what I need

Yeah every Friday
I’m gettin’ ready to roll
I want her blue eyes start sayin’ “Hi” and “Hello”
but I can always tell she’d rather be alone
with some other guy

I get: “Bye-bye baby-baby bye baby-baby bye-bye…”
Real sugar
I don’t wanna climb no walls
Real sugar
that’s what I want or none at all
Real sugar
sweet as a sweet can be
Real sugar
that’s what I want and what I need
Real sugar
I don’t wanna climb the walls
Real sugar
that’s what I want or none at all
Real sugar
sweet as a sweet can be
Real sugar
that’s what you’ve got so what’s for me?
Hey what’s for me?

I turn myself in turn turn turn
I turn myself out outside and in
I turn myself in turn turn turn
I turn myself out outside and in
Real sugar real sugar

I get: “Bye-bye baby-baby bye baby-baby bye-bye…”
Real sugar
I don’t wanna climb no walls
Real sugar
that’s what I want or none at all
Real sugar
sweet as a sweet can be

I see you comb your hair
and gimme that grin
it’s making me spin now
spinnin’ within
before I melt like snow
I say hello
How do you do!

I love the way you undress now baby begin
do you caress
honey my heart’s in a mess
I love your blue-eyed voice
like Tiny Tim shines thru
How do you do!

Well here we are crackin’ jokes in the corner of our mouths
and I feel like I’m laughing in a dream
if I was young I could wait outside your school
cos your face is like the cover of a magazine

How do you do
do you do
the things that you do
no one I know could ever keep up with you
how do you do!
did it ever make sense to you
to say bye bye bye?

I see you in that chair with perfect skin
well how have you been baby
livin’ in sin?
hey I gona know
did you say hello
How do you do?

Well, here we are spending time in the louder part of town
and I feel like everything’s surreal
when I get old I will wait outside your house
cos your hands have got the power meant to heal

How do you do
do you do
the things that you do
no one I know could ever keep up with you
how do you do!
did it ever make sense to you
to say bye bye bye?

7twenty7 is ready to move
you know she packed her bags
with nothing left to prove
I thought I didn’t care
now I’m fallin’ through
wouldn’t you?

Well, it’s a long long journey to the other side
oh I’ve been wishin’ all night I was on that flight
and god you’d better take care of the sweetest eyes
I hear myself swallowin’ the tears I cry
I hear myself swallowin’ the tears I cry

7twenty7 is up in the air
you know I feel her hands
on me everywhere
I thought I didn’t care
now I’m saying a prayer
hey mister, do you know the way
to salvation square?

It’s a long long winter ’til the birds will sing
oh I’ll be waitin’ all night for the phone to ring
I’m goin’ up in smoke and phoney magazines
everything is just pieces of my stupid dreams
everything is just spieces of my stupid dreams

With the clouds passin’ by
with the clouds passin’ by
it’s all right

7twenty7 is close to the sky
it carries the world
between hello and goodbye
like the Monday we met
that disappeared in a breath
like the Sunday she left
forever smellin’ of death

Another jet black night
another drink to go
oh I’ll be diving my head in the pure white snow
God you’d better take care of this gold skinned friend
tell me, will I ever see her again
tell me, will I ever see her again

I’ve been up all night
You’ve been putting up a fight
Seems like nothing I say gets through
How did this old bed
fit a world between me and you?

We said goodnight but the silence was so thick
You could cut it with a knife
We’ve hit a wall again
and there’s nothing I can do

You’re the one
yea I’ve put all my trust in your hands
C’mon look in my eyes
here I am,
here I am

You don’t understand me
my baby
You don’t seem to know
that I need you so much
You don’t understand me
my feelings
The reason I’m breathing, my love

The mornin’ comes
and you’re reaching out for me
just like everything’s the same
and I let myself believe
things are gonna change

When you kiss my mouth
and you hold my body close
do you wonder who’s inside?
Maybe there’s no way
we could feel each other’s pain.

Tell me why
it gets harder to know where I stand
I guess loneliness found a new friend
here I am.

You don’t understand me
You don’t seem to get me
my baby
You don’t really see
that I live for your touch

You don’t understand me
my dreams or
the things I believe in, my love
You don’t understand me
Understand me

Words & Music: Per Gessle & Desmond Child.

Per: Co-written with American songwriter Desmond Child, actually the first song ever to be written with someone from the “outside”. It wasn’t intended to be recorded by Roxette. Desmond came to Halmstad this summer, just to see if we could create something together. He had this idea, I changed it around a bit, and asked Marie to sing on the demo. Then I realized it suited us very well. Marie: You can hear that there are two songwriters working here.. it’s like a mix between Europe and the US. Per: Greenland, almost.

From “Don’t Bore Us – Get To The Chorus!”

With the moon and the sun in his eyes
he’s arrivin’
and I don’t know what I’d do without him
I’ve got life
suddenly

See, see me
I’ve got nothing to hide
see me
I’ve got nothing to hide
see me

I’m leavin’ my heart
in the palm of his hand
so gently
I know he knows that I love him
though I’ve never said
is there an easy way?

See, see me
I’ve got nothing to hide
see me
I’ve got nothing to hide
see me

Comin’ home, I’m comin’ home
it feels like I’m comin’ home
comin’ home, I’m comin’ home

See, (see me see me) see me
I’ve got nothing to hide (nothing to hide)
see me
I’ve got nothing to hide (nothing to hide)

See me…

Milk and toast and honey make it sunny
on a rainy Saturday he-he-hey
Milk and toast
some coffee take the stuffiness
out of days you hate you really hate
slow morning news pass me by
I try not to analyse but didn’t he blow my mind this time
didn’t he blow my mind?

Here he comes
to bring a little lovin’, honey
here he comes
to take away the hurt inside
here he comes
is everything that matters to me
here he comes
is everything I want in life

Milk and toast and honey
ain’t it funny how things sometimes look so clear
and feel so near
the dreams I dream my favorite wishful thinkin’
oh he’s bookmarked everywhere everywhere
true love might fall from the sky
you never know what to find
but didn’t he blow my mind this time
didn’t he blow my mind?

Milk and toast and honey

Here he comes
to bring a little lovin’ honey
to take away the pain inside
here he comes
is everything that matters to me
here he comes
is everything I want in life
here he comes
oh lay a little lovin’ honey
here he comes
to feel you’re gettin’ close to me
here he comes
is everything that matters to me
here he comes
is everywhere I want to be

Here he comes
to bring a little lovin’ honey
here he comes
to take away the pain inside
here he comes
is everything that matters to me
here he comes
is everything I want from life
here he comes
Oh lay a little lovin’ baby baby
here he comes
to gettin’ close to me
here he comes
is everything that matters to me
here he comes
is everywhere I want to be

To bring a little lovin’
is everything I want
to lay a little lovin’

Jefferson was always out of luck
I remember when we both grew up
Jefferson got hit by a westbound truck
I guess that didn’t make him look like a million bucks
that night when Sally really stole the show
and every boy was captured diggin’ for gold
poor old Jefferson was left in the snow

I’m gonna pray for Jefferson
pray for Jefferson’s soul
I’m gonna pray for Jefferson
pray for Jefferson’s soul

Jefferson is always on my mind
when him and me were runnin’ out of time
Jefferson was sure enough left be behind
the cops came in and took him by surprise
that night when Sally really showed her game
the neighbourhood would never be the same
poor old Jefferson got the blame

Ooooh
I’m gonna pray for Jefferson
pray for Jefferson’s soul
I’m gonna pray for Jefferson
pray for Jefferson’s soul
I’m gonna pray for Jefferson
pray for Jefferson’s soul
yeah
I’m gonna pray for Jefferson
pray for Jefferson’s soul

I do believe he didn’t do wrong
I say a prayer for someone I care for
I do believe he didn’t do wrong
I say a prayer for someone I care for

That night where Sally really gave it all
and made us small boys look quite tall
poor old Jefferson left the ball

Yeah
I’m gonna pray for Jefferson
pray for Jefferson’s soul
I’m gonna pray for Jefferson
pray for Jefferson’s soul
I’m gonna pray for Jefferson
pray for Jefferson’s soul
I’m gonna pray for Jefferson
pray for Jefferson’s soul

Lay it down
pull my heart to the ground
time’s getting cold
now the leaves all turn hard and blue

And I know
when I gaze to the sun
no place to hide
I got nowhere to run
from you away from you

Hold me now
girl I don’t know when
when we will ever meet again
that was then baby this is now
I try to get over you

Losing you…
things will never be the same
Can you hear me call your name?
If we changed it back again
things would never be…

In your hand
babe I don’t understand
you’ve got the eyes of a child
but you hurt like a man
always do always do

Touch me now girl
I don’t know when
when we will ever meet again
that was then baby this is now
time won’t get over you

I hit the road out of nowhere
I had to jump in my car
and be a rider in a love game
following the stars.

Don’t need no book of wisdom
I get no money talk at all.

She has a train going downtown
she’s got a club on the moon
and she’s telling all her secrets
in a wonderful balloon.
Oh she’s the heart of the funfair
she’s got me whistling her private tune.

And it all begins where it ends
and she’s all mine my magic friend.

She says: Hello you fool I love you
C’mon join the joyride
Join the joyride

She’s a flower I can paint her
she’s a child of the sun
we’re part of this together
could never turn around and run

Don’t need no fortune teller
to know where my lucky love belongs oh no

Cos it all begins where it ends
and we’re all magic friends

She says: Hello you fool I love you
C’mon join the joyride
Join the joynride

Be a joyrider

I take you on a skyride
a feeling like you’re spellbound
the sunshine is a lady
who ROX you like a baby

In that big big house there are fifty doors
and one of them leads to your heart
in the time of spring I passed your gate
and tried to make a start

All I knew was the scent of sea and dew
but I’ve been in love before
how about you?

There’s a time for the good in life
a time to kill the pain in life
dream about the sun you queen of rain

In that big old house there are fifty beds
and one of them leads to your soul
it’s a bed of fear a bed of threats
regrets and sheets so cold

All I knew your eyes so velvet blue
I’ve been in love before how about you?

There’s a time for the good in life
a time to kill the pain in life
dream about the sun you queen of rain

It’s time to place your bets in life
I’ve played the loser’s game of life
dream about the sun you queen of rain

Time went by as I wrote your name in the sky
fly fly away bye bye

When I go to heaven

When I go to heaven
I want to meet the Chiefs

we’re all part of the Indian Family

I’m only travellin’ thru this state of mine

Hey it’s alright, mama

I’m only in a certain state of mind

When I go to heaven

I’ll have a drink with Elvis
while Marlon’s on his way

My Papa told me to stay out of trouble
“When you’ve found your man, make sure he’s for real!”

I’ve learned that nothing really lasts forever
I sleep with the scars I wear that won’t heal
they won’t heal

Cos every time I seem to fall in love
Crash! Boom! Bang!
I find the heart but then I hit the wall
Crash! Boom! Bang!
That’s the call, that’s the game
and the pain stays the same

I’m walking down this empty road to nowhere
I pass by the houses and blocks I once knew

My Mama told me not to mess with sorrow
but I always did, and Lord, I still do
I’m still breaking the rules

I kick it up
I kick it down

Cos every time I seem to fall in love
Crash! Boom! Bang!
I find the heart but then I hit the wall
Crash! Boom! Bang!
that’s my real middle-name
it has always been the same
that’s the call, that’s the game
and the pain stays the same.

I still feel the heat
slowly fallin’ from the sky
and the taste of the kissing
shattered by rain
comin’ tumblin’ from behind
and the wild holy war

I kick it up
I kick it down

Cos every time I seem to fall in love
Crash! Boom! Bang!
I find the roses dying on the floor
Crash! Boom! Bang!
that’s the call, that’s the game
and the pain stays the same
that’s my real middle-name
it has always been the same

Oh Yea Oh Yea Oh Yea Uh-huh
been the same, been the same
it has always been the same

I once knew a girl
I can’t remember her name
but I remember her face
cos her sister looked the same

They both left school
but they couldn’t find a job
so they said farewell
and stole a small town car

As they were riding by the beach some summer night
the radio shouted out one of those songs
that might just change your life

– It went like this:

“Checkin’ in checkin’ out
making love I like watching all your fireworks
I like it when I light up those stars in your eyes
just like fireworks in the sky”

– yes it did…

Throwing some poems to the ports and docks
they were sleeping outdoors pushing all their luck.
they sent me a letter full of pills and thrills
then they both got rich and moved to Hollywood Hills

Yea they made lots of money playing folk guitar
cos everywhere the boys went crazy just to hear these words of art:

“Checkin’ in checkin’ out
take it to the sky
making love I like watching all your fireworks
I like it when I light those stars in your eyes
just like fireworks in the sky”

They’re coming to get you
they’re coming to get you now
coming to get you now
watch the sky!

You’re sliding down a dream, o yea
where nights are born in blue, that’s the truth
you’re swimming in a stream, o yea
fish are jumping too, next to you

Suddenly you notice someone’s at the door
you could swear you’ve been through this all before

Then she runs
her fingertips through your hair
your life has just begun
her fingers
they are everywhere
you’re floating light like air
leaving the ground
and she shines on just like the sun

You’re gazing at the sky, o my
the stars are out tonight, shining bright
you’re waving to a cloud, bye-bye
you’re drowning in the smile of his eyes

Suddenly you feel there’s no time for a deal
though a voice tells you it’s for real

And she runs
her fingertips through your hair
and life has just begun
her fingers
they are everywhere
you’re floating light like air
leaving the ground
she-she shines on just like the sun

It’s just a sunny afternoon
somebody’s singing songs of love, child
you love a lazy afternoon once in a while

Baby sometimes I feel like dying
driving while I’m closing my eyes
moving in and out of hiding
trying to catch some truth in my life
watching your stars and your moonlight
come tumbling down from the sky
take it now!

I’m gonna run to you
I’m gonna come to you
I wanna find you
in everything that I do
I’m gonna run to you
I’m gonna count on you
I’m gonna follow
baby what else can I do?

Sunday morning my town is sleeping
lying all alone in my bed
there’s not a sound I can’t help but listening
wishing I was somewhere else instead
but sometimes they’re too hard to handle
those voices inside my head
listen now!

I’m gonna run to you
I’m gonna come to you
I wanna find you
in everything that I do
I’m gonna run to you
I’m gonna count on you
I’m gonna follow
baby what else can I do?

Take a walk inside my dream
a church a lonely road
all the people come and go and come and go

Do it now!

I’ll tell you what I’ve done
I’ll tell you what I do
been driving all nite
just to get close to you
baby babe – I’m moving so fast
you’d better come on

The moon is alright
the freeway’s heading south
my heart is going Boom!
there’s a strange taste in my mouth
baby babe – I’m moving real fast
so try to hold on
try to hold on!

Sleeping in my car – I will undress you
sleeping in my car – I will caress you
staying in the back seat of my car making up

So come out tonight
I’ll take you for a ride
this steamy ol’ wagon
the radio is getting wild
baby babe – we’re moving so fast
I try to hang on
try to hang on!

Sleeping in my car – I will undress you
sleeping in my car – I will caress you
staying in the back seat of my car making love – oh yea!

Sleeping in my car – I will possess you
sleeping in my car – certainly bless you
laying in the back seat of my car making up

The night is so pretty and so young
the night is so pretty and so young
so very young…

Sleeping in my car – I will undress you
sleeping in my car – I will caress you
staying in the back seat of my car making love to you

Sleeping in my car – I will possess you
sleeping in my car – certainly bless you
laying in the back seat of my car making up

I will undress you
I will undress you

Everywhere I look I see her smile
her absent-minded eyes
and she has kept me wondering for so long
how this thing could go wrong

It seems to me that we are both the same
playing the same game
but as darkness falls this true love falls apart
into a riddle of her heart

She’s so vulnerable
like china in my hands
she’s so vulnerable
and I don’t understand
I could never hurt the one I love
she’s all I’ve got
but she’s so vulnerable
oh so vulnerable

Days like these
no one should be alone
no heart should hide away
her touch is gently conquering my mind
there’s nothing words can say

She’s coloured all the secrets of my soul
I’ve whispered all my dreams
but just as nighttime falls
this vision falls apart
into a riddle of her heart yea

She’s so vulnerable
like china in my hands
she’s so vulnerable
and I don’t understand
I could never hurt someone I love
she’s all I’ve got
but she’s so vulnerable
Oh so vulnerable

Don’t hide your eyes…

Sunday
sick o’ my tears
monday morning
I could’ve felt much better

Tuesday
you’re in my way
I wish you would type my heart a letter

Place your love
in my world
it’s for you
it’s made for you
I need time
a lot o’ time
to get you off my mind
to get you off my mind

Wednesday
nuthin’s OK
Thursday afternoon

Place your love

I need time
a lot o’ time
to get you off my mind
to get you off my mind

Maybe you’ll come here
maybe you’ll disappear
maybe the clouds I fear
will turn to flowers in the air
these cool vibrations
they’re hitting me all the time
you’ve got me diggin’ and divin’
in the garden of my mind

Place your love
in my world
it’s for you
it’s all made for you
I need time
a lot o’ time
to get you off my mind

It’s a high
to watch you fly
across the sky
all the time
to watch you all the time

I love the sound of smashing guitars
I love the sound of crashing guitars

I love the sound of breaking guitars
I love the sound of crashing guitars
hey you long haired vintage Jesus
break the guitar into 1000 pieces
I love the sound of crashing guitars
don’t you?

The 6-string kick inside

Don’t you love the sound of crashing guitars?
Don’t you love the sound of crashing electric guitars?
Don’t you love that sound; drinvin’ in your car?
Don’t you love the sound of crashing electric guitars?
Don’t you?
Don’t you?

I love the touch of watching the stars
I love the sound of trashing guitars
custom made, Townshend’s ace
smash the axe and break the case
I love the sound of crashing guitars
crashing and crashing!

The 6-string kick inside
the 6-string kick inside

I love the sound of crashing guitars

What’s she like
when she turns around to kiss you goodnight?
When she wakes up in the morning by your side?
What’s she like?

What’s she like?
The yellow moon or the deep blue of the sea?
Do you feel the same way you did when it was me?
What’s she like?

Oh I’ve been holding on
I’ve been holding on for far too long
I’ve been holding on
I’ve been holding on much too long

What’s she like
when you’re making love and stars are in her eyes?
When you’re looking for the answers in her smile?
What’s she like?

Oh I’ve been holding on
I’ve been holding on for far too long
I’ve been holding on
I’ve been holding on much too long
too long

I never knew I could love somebody
the way that I loved you
I never thought I’d be the broken-hearted
well nothing hurts you like the truth

So what’s she like when she turns to you
when push comes to shove?
When she whispers in your ear that she’s in love?
What’s she like?

Oh I’ve been holding on
I’ve been holding on for far too long
I’ve been holding on
I’ve been holding on much too long
So what’s she like?

Never looked back on a love affair
I never spent minutes on history
it made me sad
it made me so sad

And in no time no time at all a change has begun
and the name is You
I feel strange
you’ve made my life strange

Cos baby when you get close to me
I say there’s a certain chemistry

Come back before you leave
I haven’t got room for a broken heart
come back before you leave
you shouldn’t go at all
you shouldn’t go at all.

So many years and so many nights
I still can recall oh
the way that you move when you dance
do you want to dance?
We’ve had our habits and attitudes
you make me remember the power when everything’s right
please stay the night

Cos baby when you get close to me
there’s something about you I really need

Come back before you leave
I haven’t got room for a broken heart
come back before you leave
you shouldn’t go at all
you shouldn’t go at all

Babe, come back before you leave
I’ll be the air for you when you breathe
I’ll be the rising sun
Close the door, let’s make love
all God’s angels sing above
into the rising sun

I’ve got to come down
I’ve been awake for far too long
my eyes look torn
they were so strong
I wore the crown
I wrote the song
now it’s fading
my heart was open like a window to a summer breeze

I breathed your love
I filled my lungs and veins
and I breathed your love until I felt the pain
and like rain it slipped away

I tried to find out what love was really all about
behind the curtain waits the sky
it’s rare I feel enough to cry
I’m drying up inside

My life was open like a window to the summer breeze

I breathed your love
I filled my lungs and veins
and U breathed your love until I met the pain
and like rain it slipped away
just like a little rain

I breathed your love and nothing stayed the same
yes I breathed your love and filled my heart in vain
cuz like rain it slipped away
just like rain it swept away

Once upon a time there was a little girl
once she was mine
in my heart the only one
I wonder where you are
I know you’re somewhere in me
I can see your smile when I close close my eyes

Oh little girl
where did you go
little girl
I miss you so
Oh I remember when she was mine
I remember when she was mine

Once upon a time there was a little voice
singing loud and clear
in my heart the only one
once upon a time there were so many dreams
once they were mine

Oh little girl
they’re with oh they’re with you now

Oh little girl
where did you go little girl
I miss you so
I remember when she was mine
Oh I remember when she was mine

Oh girl little girl
where did you go little girl
I miss you so
Oh I remember when she was mine

where did you go little girl

Where did she go?
Where did she go from here?
The last time I saw her
she made all the clouds disappear
she said with a smile
yea the weather’s alright
she left her coat at home that night

Where do I begin today?
Where do colours never fade?
In the sunshine
in the rain
it’s quite the same
It’s never gonna change
I’ll be looking for Jane

Why did she come?
Why did she come to me?
There must have been millions
in the world she’d rather see
at least in my mind
as time has gone by
it’s always harder to laugh then to cry

Where do I begin today? (ba-ba-ba)
Where the colors never fade (ba-ba-ba)
In the sun and in the rain
it’s quite the same
it’s never gonna change
I’ll be looking for Jane

Where do I begin today? (ba-ba-ba)
Where the sunshine never fades (ba-ba-ba)
In the sun and in the rain
it’s quite the same
it’s never gonna change
I’ll be looking for Jane

Where do I begin today?
Where the colours never fade
In the sun and in the rain
it’s quite the same
it’s never gonna change
I’ll be looking for Jane

Where do I begin today?
Where the sun will never fade
In the sun and in the rain
it’s quite the same

Bringing me down to my knees

Been thinking about you
Without even trying
I’ve done it
There’s something about you
I can’t put my finger on it

Monday was fine
and I was on a high
Oh you thrilled me
I should be alright
but Friday I died when you killed me

You’re bringing me down to my knees, oh oh
Love me forever or baby
just let it go, oh oh
I’m begging you please to ease
allow your feelings to show; oh oh
You’re bringing me down to my knees ‘cos I love you so

If your love is strong
I want to be so sure about it
Oh is it all wrong to go on talking about it?

Monday was fine
yea the hours went by like a summer breeze
But way down the line
you might make up your mind
and it’s time to freeze

You’re bringing me down to my knees, oh oh
Love me forever or baby
just let it go, oh oh

I’m begging you please to ease
allow your feelings to show, oh oh
You’re bringing me down to my knees ‘cos I love you so
Oh, you’re bringing me down to my knees ‘cos I love you so

oh oh yeah

I don’t know much about you
but I’m pretty sure I wanna be with you
I haven’t got a clue what is wrong
what is right
what is left to do
I read a magazine
I watch TV-screen
I dive into a dream only to find me in love with you

I wish you’ll never stop to make my head go pop
You make my head go pop pop p-pop pop pop pop every time you’re around

It’s a pleasant valley Sunday
and everything seems to be beautiful
people go to church
but I’m found contemplating by the swimmingpool
I’m gazing at the sun
I watch him bringing joy to everyone
I feed the ducks with a bun only to find me in
love with you

I wish you’ll never stop to make my head go pop
You make my head go pop pop pop pop pop pop
You make my head go pop pop p-pop pop pop pop ever time
you’re around
press to play and never stop to make my head
go pop
Yea you make my head go pop pop pop pop pop pop
every time you’re around

Make my head go pop pop pop
Make my head go pop pop
Go pop pop
I feed the ducks with a bun only to find me in love with you

I left and wrote this song cos my life looked so shatterd
I thank the Lord I’m still strong like before
I picked myself up from the floor and tried

I tried just a little bit harder oh yea
if someone wants you to bleed
and it feels like your’re dying
don’t make the moves you don’t need
don’t cry just say ba-ba-bye-bye and try try

Try just a little bit harder -you’ll survive
try just a little bit harder -go ahead and try

Mondays and rainy days were in my pocket
I don’t want to send them on to you
bring them to you

I was alone
I told my mouth to shot up
cos I was talking to myself
like I always do when I’m stuck
well, I was crying
you could be crying too
I was screaming throungh the windown
I keep missing you
and the tears came down from the sky
and the rain feel hard on my eyes

Now you know what I look like
I’m feeling like a fool
I lose on my own
I’m going back to school

And I will pray
Hallelujan
you’ll be breaking every rule
and come back to stay
I’m feeling like a fool

I really tried so hard to design my life
there’s a big black void in head
like it’s been cut by a knife
every time your name comes around
this stupidity follows me down

Now you know what I look like
I’m feeling like a fool
I thought I could swim I’m drowning in the pool

And I will pray
Hallelujan
you’ll be breaking every rule
and consider to stay
I’m feeling like a fool

Please come back to stay
I’m feeling like a fool
I’m feeling like a fool in my heart
I’m feeling like a fool

In the coldest time of year
darkness all around my heart
I was alone but didn’t fear to wander
in the light of the stars
in the bright and silent night
winds would knock and disappear
still I felt the feeling near
like the first time you were ever here

You’re so far away
so far away
you left me
you told me you would stay
you never said goodbye and
I’ll keep asking how
oh come unto me now

I have breathed the morning air
I have heard the four winds blow
I was weary but prepared to follow
down this lonely road
in the room where lovers sleep
winds would knock and disappear.
still I felt the music near
like the first time we were ever here

You’re so far away
so far away
you left me
you told me you would stay
you never said goodbye and
I keep wondering why
I keep on wondering how
oh come unto me now

You’re so far away
so far away
you left me
you told me you would stay
you never said goodbye and
I keep wondering why
I keep on wondering how
oh come inside me now

Some days are covered in rain
while other days are made for glory
and you are the summer sun
the only one who knows the story

Do you want to talk about it? – I don’t know
Do you want to say some words? – Oh I can’t let go
I’m talking about my world my love my life
everytime I try to close my eyes
you just enter my mind
and you lay yourself down beside me… oh why?

Some streets are covered with sweat
there are no regrets just new connections… oh why?
You are the Summer Son and i’m the one who wants affection

Do you want to talk about it? – I don’t know
Do you want to speak some words? – Oh I can’t let go
I’m talking about my world my love my life
everytime I try to close my eyes
you just run through my head
and you lay yourself down, beside me… oh why?

My world my life…

I’m talking about my world my love my life
everytime… I try to close my eyes
you just enter my mind
and you lay yourself down beside me… oh why…
you just run through my head
and you lay yourself down beside me… oh why…

Why don’t you take the rest of the day off
you do deserve a break
follow that road
it ain’t long
just cross that silver lake
yea pass the pond
the off-white fence
when you see the mailbox to the left
you’ve made it all right
no way to go wrong
all you do is blow that horn

It takes you no time to get here
just drive out of town today
it takes you no time to get here and when
you’ve arrived you might as well stay
you might as well stay

Why don’t you leave your desk for a short while
you do deserve some time
enjoying the other side of life
you forgot to memorize
stay in the sun
reach for the moon
make a little love in the afternoon
you’re doing all right
no way you go wrong
this is the place where you belong

It takes you no time
no time to get here

I pick up the phone
I’m dialing your number
While I pray you’re at home
At home and alone
‘Cuz I can’t function on my own
And I’ll never stop believing…

The reaping is done
You are the one
The radio is on but the sound is all gone
And I wanna walk out in the sun
But lately that’s been very hard to do

I’ve got a thing about you
And I don’t really know what to do
‘Cuz I’ve got a thing about you
Hey you

I pick up the phone
I’m dialing that number
And my heart like a stone
Waits for the tone
Oh I can’t make it on my own
And I’ll never stop believing…

I know what is right and this is so wrong
Alone in my bed, better off on my own
The TV is on but the colors are gone
And lately you’ve been painting my world blue

I’ve got a thing about you
(I’ve got a thing about you)
And I don’t really care what you do
I’ve got a thing about you
(I’ve got a thing about you)
Yeah, you

I’ve got a thing about you
I’ve got a thing about you

Lately you’ve been painting my world blue

I’ve got a thing about you
(I’ve got a thing about you)
And I don’t really know what to do
I’ve got a thing about you
Hoping this story cuts through
(this story cuts through)
Yeah, I’ve got a thing about you
A thing about you

I’ve got a thing about you
I’ve got a thing about you
And I don’t really know what to do

I’ve got a thing about you…

Every day I see him coming
every day he walks on by
life used to be so plain and simple
before he came into my life

Every night I keep on dreaming
every night I take him home
we always go to bed together
I always wake up all alone

Oh it’s strange, so strange
what he’s doing to me
Oh it’s strange so strange
did this ever happen to you
the way it has happened to me
the way it just happened to me

Every day outside my window
always minutes close to eight
I wish he stayed a little longer
but his bus is never late

Every night we’re dancing slowly
I play the music he adores
like Sinatra then we’re talking
all important things for sure

Oh it’s strange so strange
what he’s doing to me
Oh it’s strange so strange
did this ever happen to you
the way it has happened to me

Oh it’s strange so strange
what he’s doing to me
Oh so strange real strange
did this ever happen to you
the way it has happened to me
the way it just happened to me

Can you tell me where it leaves
when it’s neverending?
Can you tell me where to go
when no one’s home?

And I know you know
it hurts
it hurts to be alone
you’re on your own
on the one-way train going down

Can you tell me what to say
when there’s no one listening?
Can you show me what to do
when all is done?

I know you know
it hurts
it hurts to be alone
the plan has gone wrong
like a runaway train going down
going down, down, down
going down
going down, down, down
Oooohhhh

Yes I know you know
it hurts
it hurts to be alone
you’re on
on your own
on a one-way train going down
going down
going down, down, down
going down
going down, down, down

That’s the feeling
it hurts to be alone…
going down

Sunday morning
I’m still hiding in bed
listening to the rhythm of the rain above my head
and all that I have said
I sure saved a lot for you
but what could I do?
If I’d been talking to the wall
it wouldn’t make any difference to you
that’s the art of being you
I think I carry the weight of the world
sometimes you lose
the weight of the world
sometimes you cry

I kiss your smile
I wish you’d stay the night
I put my arms around your golden head
and turn out the light
oh I love to watch your eyes
when I make love to you
wait little world
sometimes you lose
the weight of the world
sometimes you cry
sometimes you cry

The weight of the world
sometimes you lose
the weight of the world
sometimes you cry
sometimes you cry
