Voice, The

Between the open heart
and the whisper goodbye
there’s a perfect teardrop in your eye
between the lover’s moon
and the trembling sky
there’s a broken dream in your mind

And the voice is carrying
the love you have lost
and the change of heart
in someone you trust
yea the voice is carrying
the love and the scars
hear the lonely voice in the dark

Between the careful touch
and the breakaway kiss
there’s a beauty you can’t resist
Mmm between the fall apart
and the moment of bliss
there must be something more than this

And the voice is carrying
the love you have lost
love you have lost
and the change of heart in someone you trust
yea the voice is carrying
the love and the scars
love and the scars
hear the lonely voice
in the dark
in the dark
hear the lonely voice
hear the lonely voice

And the voice is carrying
the love you have lost
love you have lost
and the change of heart
in someone you trust
yea the voice is carrying
the love and the scars
love and the scars
hear the lonely voice in the dark

Oh yea the voice is carrying
the love you have lost
love you have lost
and the change of heart in someone you trust
Yea the voice is carrying the love and the scars
love and the scars
hear the lonely voice in the dark
in the dark

Lonely voice
lonely voice in the dark
hear the lonely voice
hear the lonely voice in the dark

Myth

You were born with a one-story mind
in a one-story town
with sleepy Mondays all around

but you never slipped, no baby, you held tight
your peppermint teeth flashed in the night
you always made the wrong words sound all right

I love your myth
I love what they say about you, yea
I love all the things
all the things that you do
the talk of the town, the stories about you, yea
cream tangerine, baby I love your myth

I’ve got this urge comin’ on so strong
oh I want to take you home
I’ve got to, I’ve got to take you home

I’m feelin’ like a monkey hangin’ in a tree
I love when you pay attention to me
I want to read your steamy poetry

I love your myth
I love what they say about you, yea
I love every little thing
every little thing that you do
The talk of the town, the stories about you, yea
cream tangerine, baby I love your myth

I’ve got this feeling comin’ on so strong
I have to take you home tonight
I’ve got to take you

You never slip you always hold on tight
you make the wrong moves look all right
you make it all all right
baby, I love your myth

I love your myth
I love what they say about you, yea
sweet tangerine, baby I love you

I love your myth
I love what they say about you, yea
I love every little thing
every little thing that you do
the talk of the town, the stories about you, yea
cream tangerine, baby I love your myth

Soy una mujer [Fading Like A Flower]

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
y por amor yo soy capaz de

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

Fool

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

Fingertips

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

Paint

I’ve got a hot chilly feeling I don’t understand
I’ve got to run through this minute like a hurricane
I’ve got to tighten my wire from the sense to the soul
I find my back to the wall when it’s time to go
I’ve got to know is that your heartbeat?

Paint…me right
can you feel the heat in me tonight?
Oh I I’m the pearl
paint your love all over my world

I get a love shock/electric from the touch of your hand
I’m getting lost in the riddles of the modern man
I’ve got it up down all around tied to the bone
hey there’s a strange situation on the late nite show
I’ve got to know is that your heartbeat?

Paint…me right
Can you feel the heat in me tonight?
Oh I I’m the pearl
paint your love all over my world
do it right
I can feel the woman in me tonight
Oh I I’m the pearl
paint your love all over my world

Rain, The

I was raised the Northern way
and my father had a Northern name
I did my crying out in the pouring rain
and a season turned into another one
I found a heart bright like the morning sun
he touched my lips so softly with his fingertips

But I kept the rain
falling down on me
all the time
all the time
I kept the rain
falling down on me
all the time
all the time

And some things in life won’t ever change
there’s a smell of a rusty chain
and of love disappearing like an aeroplane

I’ve kept the rain
falling down on me
all the time
all the time
I’ve kept the rain
falling down on me
all the time
all the time

Waiting For The Rain

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

Neverending Love

Chasing your shadow
the senses together
four-leafed and clever
I come from behind.

Chasing your shadow
I wander in circles
you’re 1 in a million
we’re 2 of a kind.

It’s you that I long for
it’s you that I hunger
oh you are the maker
of waves in my mind.

We dance in the moonlight
a run on the wire
drawing a fine line
a neverending love.

The fever turns slowly
into a fire
drawing a fine line
a neverending love.

Chasing your shadow
moon and the water
field and the reaper
star and the sky.

Chasing your shadow
hammer and heartbeat
clay and new concrete
I follow the signs

It’s you that I long for
it’s you that I hunger
and you are the maker
of waves in my mind.

We dance in the moonlight
a run on the wire
drawing a fine line
a neverending love.

The fever turns slowly
into a fire
drawing a fine line
a neverending love.

We dance in the moonlight
a run on the wire
drawing a fine line
a neverending love.

The fever turns slowly
into a fire
drawing a fine line
a neverending love.

Un día sin tí [Spending My Time]

¿Qué hora es?
bienvenida la mañana
tan sola yo y el cielo tan azul
en mi café
en mi radio y en mi tele
siempre estás tú

Para empezar
me levanto de la cama y voy
vistiéndome así como así
gracias a Dios
tú no puedes verme llorando por tí

Un día sin tí
es una eternidad
es un adiós que duele por dos
solo esperar
la soledad
un día sin tí

Busco tu voz
y el teléfono me lleva al puerto gris
de tu contestador
ayúdame
yo no sé cómo pasarme un día sin tí

Un día sin tí
es una eternidad
es un adiós que duele por dos
solo esperar
la soledad
un día sin tí
es una eternidad
es un adiós que duele por dos
es una pena
un día sin tí

No tengo amigos ni otra cosa que hacer
sólo pienso fuertemente en tí
Oh…
Me niego a ser tu amor a cambio de un día sin tí

Un día sin tí
es una eternidad
es un adiós que duele por dos
solo esperar un día sin tí
un día sin tí
sin tí
es una eternidad
es un adiós que duele por dos
es una pena
un día sin tí
un día sin tí
sin tí

Quiero ser como tú [I Don’t Want to Get Hurt]

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
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

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

Como tú
aah quiero ser como tú

So Far Away

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

Run To You

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!

Dance Away

There’s a hidden meaning in everything she says
every close encounter
every kiss
every caress
even the truth has got that bitter taste of a lie
Well, I can read this lips but I can’t read his mind

I can see him dance away now
Oh oh – oh oh oh

He was one of the kind that seems so hard to find
there’s a change of weather
now he leaves me far behind
that I don’t matter to him came as such a surprise
Well, I can read his lips
I thought I red his eyes

I can see him dance away now
Oh oh – oh oh oh

I can see him dance away now
Oh oh – oh oh oh

I Don’t Want To Get Hurt

In everything I see you appear with me
how come? How come?
and everything I do involves you too
we are like one
in my life there has been so many changes
and I don’t want to be left out in the rain

I don’t want to get hurt
I’ve done my time
all I want from you is to tell the truth
I don’t want to get hurt no more this time
I don’t want to go blind
and find it’s falling apart all the time

In the middle of a dream you are there for me
your face your lips
but there’s no way you can tell
cos I hide it really well, so well
in my life there has been loving and lying
and I don’t another reason to cry

I don’t want to get hurt
I’ve done my time
All I want from you is to tell the truth
I don’t want to get hurt no more this time
I don’t want to go blind
and find I’m falling apart one more time


© Gessle – Jimmy Fun Music

Anyone

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

Call Of The Wild

I know her and every notion I get from her I wear inside me
I know her all of the broken leaves of love she leaves behind
Oh – don’t you hide away from the rain
Oh – can you tell me the name of this game?
I got to get thru to you

Behind the door
another wall
a lonely cry
a call of the wild

A dancing daze
an empty face
a crystal high
a call of the wild

And there is something that sweeps the dark
a lover’s dart
the call of a broken heart

Wrapped in the night
behind these eyes
oh hear the cry
the call of the wild

I know her and in my mind I dream of her
how she aches without me
I know her and every heart is a lonely number when she walks by
Oh – can you read the hurt in my eyes?
Oh – don’t you leave without saying goodbye
I got to get thru to you

Behind the door
another wall
a lonely cry
a call of the wild

A dancing daze
an empty face
a crystal high
a call of the wild
and there is something that sweeps the dark
a lover’s dart
the call of a broken heart

Wrapped in the night
behind these eyes
oh hear the cry
the call of the wild

Directamente a tí [Run To You]

Oye; a veces me siento mal;
es una cuestión personal.
Tengo un corazón para nadie;
nadie se lo quiere quedar.
Pero si lo parto contigo
yo vivo de tu mitad.
Tu mitad.
Voy directamente a tí;
directamente a tí.
Para encontrarte;
yo puedo llegar hasta el fin.
Voy directamente a tí;
directamente a tí.
Aunque no quieras voy a caer sobre tí.
La ciudad parece tan triste;
todo está: en silencio total.
Deseo que algo pase en mi vida
pero nada pasa de verdad.
Voy a buscar la salida;
me marcho de la ciudad.
Hacia tí.
Voy directamente a tí;
directamente a tí.
Para encontrarte;
yo puedo llegar hasta el fin.
Voy directamente a tí;
directamente a tí.
Aunque no quieras voy a caer sobre tí.
Un paseo por el sol oir tu voz y
mi vida marcha bien. Mucho mejor.
Directamente a tí.
Voy directamente a tí;
directamente a tí.
Aunque no quiras;
ah; ah.
Voy directamente a tí;
directamente a tí.
Para encontrarte;
yo puedo llegar hasta el fin.
Voy directamente a tí;
directamente a tí.
Aunque no quieras voy
a caer sobre tí.

Una reina detrás de un rey [Queen Of Rain]

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
Mmmm

My World, My Love, My life

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…

Sleeping In My Car

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

Cry

Living here without you is not an easy way of life
I spend my time without you
I try to make it all worthwhile
standing in a rainfull coming down from the sky

Why should I cry over you?
Why should I cry cry cry over you?

I keep on thinking about you
I’ve got no private pride to hide
I’ve built my world around you
like a call without reply
my love has lost direction
she’s got the sun in her eyes

Why should I cry over you?
Why should I cry cry cry over you?

Hearing your footsteps
loud on my stairs
a walking…
living without you
Feeling the sweet sweet smell of love in the air
I can feel it
living without you
Kissing the face that I see everywhere
but I’m living without you
living without

Hotblooded

You know I’m hotblooded baby…

Cos I’m hotblooded

I need your love so bad

Flash all the lights
I’ll be a camera tonight
I’ll snap the look on your face

“can I call you home?”
“can I call you home?”
“can I call?” – you can call me miss…

It Will Take A Long Long Time

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

Joy Of A Toy

You wake me up in the middle of the night and burn the cover down
You’re on the phone, in the air, like a record try to spin me round
Oh won’t you move away oh honey get away

The joy of a toy – is it all that you came for?
The joy of a toy got the look of a lie
The joy of a toy put the hurt into action
The joy of a toy – you can kiss this love goodbye

How can you win when you don’t know a thing what love is all about?
Don’t want to fight so get out of my sight I won’t surrender now
It’s independence day oh honey get away

The joy of a toy – is it all that you came for?
The joy of a toy got the look of a lie
The joy of a toy put the hurt into action
The joy of a toy – you can kiss this love goodbye

Hello Goodbye

No sé si es amor [It Must Have Been Love]

Es como amor pero no lo sé
sabe a besos mi almohada
madrugada y él no está
solitaria en mi cama
si él me ama por qué se va

Es amor o no es amor
no lo sé

No sé si es amor pero lo parece
con él soy feliz pero vivo sin él
no sé si es amor pero crece y
crece tan dentro de mi que
se ve a flor de piel

Qué curioso!
Siempre juntos
él con nadie
yo con él
Y se me escapa entre los dedos
medio angel, medio cruel

Eso es amor o no es amor
yo no lo sé
no sé si es amor pero lo parece
y me temo que yo estoy loca por él

No sé si es amor
todo pude ser…
es algo cálido
es algo íntimo

No sé si es amor pero lo parece
con él soy feliz pero vivo sin él
no sé si es amor pero crece y crece
tan dentro de mi
que se ve a flor de piel

No sé si es amor pero lo parece y me temo
que yo estoy loca por él

No sé si es amor
Todo puede ser…
Es algo cálido
es algo íntimo

El día del amor [Perfect Day]

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…

It Takes You No Time To Get Here

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

Vulnerable

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…

Chances

Hear my call
here and everwhere
I’ve been walking the streets in despair
one more fire turns a shade of grey
one more tear is lost in the rain.

And I say that I love you
I say that I need you
baby I leave you a sign of desire
no shadow will haunt you
no heart will desert you
no one will hurt you
no space or no time

Got to got you got to got to take your chances on me
like the river will lead the water to the sea
take on me
take your chances on me
don’t ever let it be
don’t ever let it be

There’s a night when you close your eyes around a dream
that shines like the sun
everyone knows it’s beautiful
tell me why you want to dream it alone

And I say that I love you
I say that I need you
baby I leave you the lines in my palm
No darkness will get you
no heart will desert you
nothing can hurt you or do you any harm

Got to got you got to got to take your chances on me
like the river will lead the water to the sea
take on me
take your chances on me
don’t walk away from me
don’t walk away from me

Knockin’ On Every Door

Hey now honey you got to face the floor
you headed for the heart
but you couldn’t find the door
could you? Could you?
Well I’m standing in the sun
but I’m living in the rain
I got to get a-whirlin’
like a human hurricane over you over you

Now you’re looking like a fox on the run
and you’re faster than a shot from a gun
I’m pointing at you oh you
talking ’bout you hey you

I thought we had love in store
– you keep on knockin’ on every door
babe I’ve seen it all before
– you keep on knockin’ on every door
ain’t no lovin’ you ignore
– you keep on knockin’ on every door
keep keep knock knockin’ on every door
– you keep on knockin’ on every door

Hey now honey time is all you’ve spent
you moved into the bed
but you couldn’t pay the rent
could you?
In the twinkle of an eye you electrify
I got to get a-shootin’ like a rocket in the sky
bye bye goodbye

Now you’re burning like you’re hot on the scene
don’t you love to steal a part of my dream?
I’m looking at you oh you
talking ’bout you yea you

I thought we had love in store
– you keep on knockin’ on every door
babe I’ve seen it all before
– you keep on knockin’ on every door
ain’t no sugar you ignore
– you keep on knockin’ on every door
keep keep knock knockin’ on every door
I thought we used to have love in store
– you keep knock knockin’ on every door
hey babe don’t run around here no more
– you keep on knockin’ on every door
ain’t no sugar you ignore
– you keep on knockin’ on every door
keep keep knock knockin’ on every door
– you keep on knockin’ on every door
you’d better learn your lesson now…

I Was So Lucky

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

From One Heart To Another

Running running from one heart to another
Running running from one heart to another

Echoes of loneliness
traces from love affairs will never disappear
always come thru

I thought I’d never know the time to see you go
two people turned into one
thinking as one

A hint in the night
a touch of a dream has come to an end
we run from one heart to another again

The rose of our love is witherd and torn
and gone from one heart to another

Sailing away to sea
the ships made of you and me
they pass in the darkest nights
and turn out the lights

And I thought I’d never know the season to see you go
two people twirled into one
being as one

A hint in the night
a touch of a dream has come to an end
we run from one heart to another again

The rose of our love is witherd and torn
and gone from one heart to another

Running running from one heart to another

A hint in the night
a touch of a dream has come to an end
we run from one heart to another again

The rose of our love is witherd and torn
and gone from one heart to another again

A touch of a dream has come to an end
we run from one heart to another again

The rose of our love is witherd and torn
and gone from one heart to another again

Running running from one heart to another
Running running from one heart to another

Better Off On Her Own

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

A Thing About You

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…

First Girl On The Moon, The

She was the first girl on the moon
She didn’t compromise
When she took off that cold afternoon
Heading for the northern skies.

I told her I could come
That I could come along.

She was the first girl on the moon
I think I was her only friend
She brought her raygun an old harpoon
Just in case of accidents.

I told her I could come
That I could come along
But she didn’t let me come along
Wave goodbye
Wave goodbye.

She was the first girl on the moon
Standing tall flag in hand
She looked around humming a tune
The strangest song known to man.

I told her I could come
That I could come along
But she never let me come along
Wave goodbye
Wave goodbye.

Dangerous

You pack your bag
you take control
you’re moving into my heart and into my soul

Get out of my way!
get out of my sight!
I won’t be walking on thin ice
to get through the night

Hey, where’s your work?
what’s your game?
I know your business but I don’t know your name…

Hold on tight
you know she a little bit dangerous
she’s got what it takes to make ends meet
the eyes of a lover that hit like heat
you know she’s a little bit dangerous

You turn around
so hot and dry
you’re hiding under a halo
your mouth is alive
get out of my way!
get out of my sight!
I’m not attracted to go deeper tonight

Hey, what’s your word?
what’s your game?
I know your business but I don’t know your name…

Hold on tight
you know she a little bit dangerous
she’s got what it takes to make ends meet
the eyes of a lover that hit like heat
you know she’s a little bit dangerous
she’s armed and extremely dangerous…

I Remember You

Are you ready? go!

I hear your footsteps like you’re walking
I hear your voice like you’re talking to me
and I can reach every moment
every caress like i’m living a dream
down to the bone
go little darling

Oh I remember you
feels like it was yesterday
I remember you
you’ve got me running back again
you shared my secrets and my laughter
I fell in love with the light in your eyes
and I believed that summer would go on and on
for the rest of my life
down to the bone
go little darling

hey I remember you
feels like it was yesterday
I remember you
you’ve got me running back again
you’ve got me running
I say: na na na na na na na na na na

Stars

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
knowing all I know
that’s where I’ll meet you

And the stars will show
every breeze will blow
knowing all I know
that’s where I’ll meet you

Like Lovers Do

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

Alguien [Anyone]

Alguien para descubrir el amor
para quererse
alguien para compartir el dolor
y perdonarse
toda la vida buscándote
lejos de mi y eras tu
esa persona que sabe querer
y eres tu…
alguien para dar un beso total
y abandonarse
alguien para dar un salto mortal
y no morirse
quien iba decirmelo
tu eres el único, tu amor
mi corazón desde el cielo al suelo
buscándote…

Alguien para conocer la vida
alguien para conservar el calor
alguien para creer en todo
alguien para disfrutar del amor

Después más que nada
estar feliz contigo
mi buen amigo…

Siempre buscándote
ahora sintiéndote
aquí en mi
para los dos un amor
sin testigos
gracias a ti

Alguien para conocer la vida
alguien para conservar el calor
alguien para creer en todo
alguien para disfrutar del amor
después más que nada
estar feliz contigo oh
mi buen amigo, amigo

Alguien para conocer la vida
alguien para conservar el calor
alguien para creer en todo
alguien para disfrutar del amor
después más que nada
estar feliz contigo oh
mi buen amigo, tu eres ese alguien

Happy Together

When she walked up, he walked down
just like the seasons went round and round
she was in love, he wasn’t sure
she wrote some letters he tried to ignore

They could have been so happy together
they could have been so lucky in love
sing la di da
so happy together
they could have run the earth, the sky, the sun

She carried his ring since she left school
he knew she was precious, the prettiest jewel
she wanted a baby, but he wasn’t sure
he couldn’t make up his mind anymore

They could have been so happy together
they could have been so lucky in love
sing la di da
so happy together
they could have run the earth, the stars, the sun

I couldn’t ever hurt no one
if you feel shattered I’m sorry for what I’ve done
we could have been so happy together
we could have been so lucky in love
sing la di da
so happy together
we could have run the earth, the sky, the sun
Yea, we could have been so happy together
we could have been so lucky in love
sing la di da
so happy together

We could have run the universe
could have run the universe
could have run the universe for fun
so happy together
so happy together
so happy together

Centre Of The Heart, The

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
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 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
is a suburb to the brain?

Every Day

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

Place Your Love

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
I wish I was sleepin’

Friday and Saturday sun
gettin’ up early but I can’t get nuthin’ done

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
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

View From A Hill

Raging waves sweep this heavy heart
cold is the colour of the dark
find a byway and climb that hill
watch the thunder cast a spell
what did you gain from love?
Don’t ask me!
All for the sweetest thrill…

I see a view from a hill
Oh oh
I see it perfectly clear
and I cry for the dreams that you kill
Oh oh view from a hill
and it’s only a moment away

Love is a rainfall
hard on the head
no escape though you’re soaking wet
leave me blinded by your light
leave me stranded alone tonight
what did you gain from love?
Don’t ask me!
All for the cheapest thrill…

I see a view from a hill
Oh oh
I see it perfectly clear
and I cry for the dreams that you kill
Oh oh view from a hill
and it’s only a motion away

Watercolours In The Rain

Going through the motions
ending up nowhere at all
can’t see the sun on my wall
going through emotions
ending up on a frozen morning
with a heart not even broken

Seems I’ve been running all my life
all my life
seems I’ve been running all my life
all my life like watercolours in the rain

Find a place to settle down
get a job in a city nearby
and watch the trains roll on by
I’ll find the falling star
I’ll fall in love with the eyes of a dreamer
and a dream worth believing

Seems I’ve been running all my life
all my life
seems I’ve been running all my life
all my life like watercolours in the rain

Salvation

I can barely remember my past
everything seems to disappear so fast
but I recall being jealous and alone
gazing at the dreams going by

I started my life when you knocked on the door
found something inside I didn’t dare to ignore
now I do believe in flowers on the moon
I’ll swim beside the golden tide

You crashed by the gate
captured my fate
salvation
my eyes couldn’t see
I hardly breathed
I was diving so deep
salvation

I’m down in the study holding on to my luck
will you still love me when I call you up?
I gave you my body the power over me
come on bring out the best in me

You crashed by the gate
captured my fate
salvation
my eyes couldn’t see
I hardly breathed
my heart was asleep
salvation

Some will get broken
others will get lucky like me meeting you
don’t pass me by

You crashed by the gate
captured my fate
salvation
my eyes couldn’t see
I hardly breathed
I was down on my knees
salvation

Some will get broken
others will get lucky like me meeting you
don’t pass me by
don’t pass me by

I found salvation oh yea
you bring me salvation
I found salvation

Pearls Of Passion

There was a banquet of believers
when we walked into the room
December days of Christmas
felt like days in June
and there were morning light
and sunrise chimes echoed all around
now’s the time for weary minds
the moon is northern bound

And you know I’m going back
going back today
back to where I came from
and you know I’m going back
going back to stay
to the alleys where pearls of passion came my way

There’s a promise in the twilight
it’s so innocent and wild.
two hearts that break the silence
you can hear a distant cry
and there’s emptiness and loneliness
it’s more or less the same
let’s run between the raindrops babe
and catch the midnight train

And you know I’m going back
going back today
back to where I came from
and you know I’m going back
going back to stay
to the alleys where pearls of passion came my way

And you know I’m going back
going back today
back to where I came from
and you know I’m going back
going back to stay
to the alleys where pearls of passion came my way

Bla Bla Bla Bla Bla (You Broke My Heart)

You promised me it will last forever
you said there is no way you could die
everything you ever told me was a bunch of lies
hey mama back on the outside
you know that’s not where I belong, no
every truth, everything I believed in has turned out wrong

It’s all bla bla bla bla bla
you broke my heart so many times
a lot of bla bla bla bla bla
you broke my heart

It’s so clear when you scratch on the surface
going deeper, deeper down
all I wanted was to make you happy
but baby, what’s that sound?
but baby what’s that sound?

It’s all bla bla bla bla bla
you broke my heart so many times
a lot of bla bla bla bla bla
you broke my heart
you’ve broke my heart
you’ve broke my heart

All you ever cared for was to make you stronger
no one I have known has looked so weak
Oh
you never know

It’s so bla bla bla bla bla
you broke my heart so many times
a lot of bla bla bla bla bla
a lot of bla bla bla bla bla
you broke my heart so many times
a lot of bla bla bla bla bla
you broke my heart
you broke my heart
you broke my heart
you broke my heart
you broke my heart so many times

Crash! Boom! Bang! [Spanish]

Mi propio padre qua me conocía
no se equivocó
dudaba da mi

Mi madre siempre todo lo sabía
No doy más da no, no doy más de si
soy así

Cada vez que me enamoro yo…
Crash! Boom! Bangi
Siento algo como vértigo
Crash! Boom! Bang!
Soy un tren un misil
voy a cien, voy a mil

Mi corazón me ha superdemostrado
que pierdo el control en la intimidad
que soy capaz de
dar mi amor privado
a aquel que me da sus ganas de amar
me dejo llevar

Cada vez qua me enamoro yo..
Crash! Boom! Bang!
Siento algo como vértigo…
Crash! Boom! Bang!
Yo no sé ni quién soy
nada pido, todo doy
soy así, natural
vaya bien o fatal

Me dejo llevar
por la piel
por instinto
puedo morir
por amor, sin solución

Cada vez qua me enamoro yo…
Crash! Boom! Bang!

Oh, yeah… Oh, yeah…
Soy así: Crash! Boom! Bang!

Here Comes The Weekend

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?

It Hurts

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

I Love The Sound Of Crashing Guitars

Mao Mao Mao…

I love the sound of smashing guitars
I love the sound of crashing guitars
red guitars against the wall
big guitars can turn so small
I love the sound of crashing guitars
show it!

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

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
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
Mao Mao Mao…

Heart Shaped Sea, The

Babe it’s time to tell me that it’s over
tell me that it’s over it’s plain to see
and this time we won’t be starting over
no crying on your shoulder into the heart shaped sea
oh you’ve been a-running from our door
and you’ve been enchanted by the gracious voice of love

Babe it’s time to look me in the eyes
time to say goodbye it’s clear to me
and this time I won’t let you down
you can turn around I’ll set you free
Oh you’ve been a-sailing from our shore
and you’ve been enchanted by someone from afar

Babe it’s time to gather all the harvest
to pray before the winter
and sail the heart shaped sea
Oh you’ve been a-running from my love
and you’ve been enchanted by the powers up above

Soul Deep

Save a prayer for a sinner and a saint
my baby’s coming back
say a prayer
hide hide away yea baby’s coming back
hey hey hey ain’t gonna trouble his wandering mind
gonna take on the time to find out

If my love is
soul deep – spinning the heart round a wire
soul deep – a heavenly wave
soul deep – heating the heart like a fire
soul deep is taking my breath away-ay-ay

Save a tear till the curtain will fall
well I’m saving them all for you
knock on wood
is it understood that I’m saving it up for you
hey hey hey
love is a hustle just a moment behind
gonna walk on the line to find out
if my love is soul deep…

Save a prayer for a sinner and a saint
my baby’s coming back
say a prayer
hide hide away yea yea baby’s coming back

hey hey hey
ride on the soul train
now I’m too close to hide
gonna take on the time to find out
if my love is soul deep…

Pay The Price

I try to keep your name
and still get rid of your face
I hate to be by myself
all locked away in this place
you turn me inside out
you turn me outside in
around and upside down
a rollercoaster within

Pay the price of love
when he calls for you
you’ve got to
pay the price of love
when he calls for you

I grab my big black book
and call the numbers I know
something is melting this town
like it was all made of snow
you turn me inside out
you turn me outside in
around and up and down
the elevator within

Pay the price of love (ooh la la la)
when he calls for you
you’ve got to
pay the price of love (ooh la la la)
when he calls for you

Spending the evening alone
with the 10 o’clock news
looking at you through the holes
in the soles of my old brown shoes

It Must Have Been Love

Lay a whisper on my pillow
leave the winter on the ground
I wake up lonely there’s air of silence
in the bedroom and all around
touch me now I close my eyes and dream away

It must have been love but it’s over now
it must have been good but I lost it somehow
It must have been love but it’s over now
from the moment we touched ’til the time had run out

Make-believing we’re together
that I’m sheltered by your heart
but in and outside I’ve turned to water
like a teardrop in your palm
and it’s a hard Christmas (winter’s) Day I dream away

It must have been love but it’s over now
it was all that I wanted now I’m living without
It must have been love but it’s over now
it’s where the water flows
it’s where the wind blows

Little Miss Sorrow

You could see from miles around
She wore her summer dresses bright
Quite like the sky
She always came in colours
All smiles and daffodils
She let her hair down in the breeze

But every little thing has changed today
Little Miss Sorrow
Every little thing turned pale then faded
Little Miss Sorrow
The sunlight doesn’t show
All the colours go
Out through the window

She used to go out dancing
Cool silver fingernails
I used to watch her from the bar
Following her car
She always came in colours
She always kept control
She painted yesterday in gold

But every little thing turned grey today
Little Miss Sorrow
Every little thing turned pale then faded
Little Miss Sorrow
The sunlight doesn’t show
All the colours go
Even the rainbow

Allow me to introduce myself
I’m just a local boy
She was my Little Miss Joy
I want to call her name
My life won’t be the same
Dear God

Every little thing has changed today
Little Miss Sorrow
Every little thing turned pale and faded
Little Miss Sorrow
Yes, every little thing turned grey today
Little Miss Sorrow
The weak replaced the strong
The bird forgot the song
What’s going on?
What’s going on?
Tell me, what’s going on?

Half a Woman, Half a Shadow

Wash my pain away,
Half a woman, half a shadow…

Daylight is breaking again
I hide in the dark. I’m watching the rain.
You’re out of touch. You’re out of reach.
What can I say, I never wanted it this way.

Love sleeps all alone
The cold telephone I know the heart.
Yes, I know the kind The kisses of fire
Turning to grey I never wanted it this way
I always wanted you to stay

Wash my pain away
Cause I’m half a woman half a shadow.

Love always change with the trees
the spring and the leaves the waves on the sea
Wilder than light the wind in your eyes
led me astray I never wanted it this way
I always wanted you to stay

Oh I need you yes I need you
Give me a reason to believe

Entering Your Heart

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

Weight Of The World, The

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

What’s She Like?

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?

(I Could Never) Give You Up

I’ve been hiding
I’ve been hiding
lost in the love of another
I’ve followed the moon and a song
and I thought it would take me forever
to find a place where I belong

I watch a rainbow rise
I give you all I’ve got

I could never give you up
the way you make my love shine
I could never give you up
the way you make true love shine

I believe you when you say
you don’t want to be lonely
I’ll carry your heart like a bridge
when you need all the time you can find
to get the hurt out of your mind

I’ll watch the rain go by
and give you all I’ve got

Cause I could never give you up
the way you make my love shine
I could never give you up
the way you make true love shine

(Do You Get) Excited?

When the day gets dark
over a thousand streets
and you feel your heart is a living beat

When you’re all alone
and you close your eyes
naked to the bone
the dream comes alive

Do you get excited
when I touch you in the night?
my oh my…

Do you get excited
when I meet you every night?
you won’t let the night pass you by

When your body’s hot
the window’s open wide
this moment’s all you got
in this race of life
when you feel the fire
is getting close to you
hey baby, you know I’m lonely too

Do you get excited
when I touch you in the night?
my oh my…
do you get excited
when I meet you every night?

You won’t let the night pass you by
I wanna know

Cooper

Cooper went out late last night
I heard the slam from her door
foggy ways
November daze
all the white wolves were smiling

Cooper went out walkin’ the clouds
she left everything in a mess
“Shut your mouth when you talk to me”
her words were always so small

And there’s a sound from the telephone
when can I say she’s coming home?
Leave me the number you’re dialing from
and may I ask who’s calling?
May I ask who’s calling?

Cooper went out
3 o’clock sharp
I heard the bells from the church
someone said they saw a car
Picking her up by the station

Cooper went out and that’s all there is
I’m just no one from next door
everything will be alright
when all the flowers have cried

Then there’s a voice on the telephone
when can I say she’s coming home?
Leave me the number you’re dialing from
and may I ask who’s callin’? (Who’s calling?)
May I ask who’s calling? (Who’s calling?)
May I ask who’s calling?

Turn To Me

Turn to me
when your heart breaks away
turn to me
don’t turn me away

When everything’s said and done
when you’re looking for somewhere to run

Why don’t you turn to me?
Turn to me
Why don’t you turn to me?
Turn to me

Turn to me
when the moon gets too cold
turn to me
when the story’s been told
when everything’s dim and grey
when you’ve hidden the rainbow away

Why don’t you turn to me?
Turn to me
Why don’t you turn to me?
Turn to me

Now that Christmas is here
I’ll shatter your fears
and if you want the secrets of mine
turn to me and read these lonely lonely eyes

Why don’t you
why don’t you turn to me?
Turn to me
Why don’t you turn to me?
Rely on me
why don’t you turn to me?
Turn to me
why don’t you
why don’t you turn to me?

Now that Christmas is here
Rely on me
Why don’t you turn to me?
Now that Christmas is here
turn to me

Lo siento [Salvation]

Poco a poco me olvido de tí
es natural las cosas son así
me equivoqué, buscaba un corazon
hecho para mi, mi mitad
depronto la vida cambió de color
el viento bailaba separándonos
mi mundo feliz dejó de ser feliz
y apenas nos mirábamos.

Yo, voy a seguir, sola sin tí
lo siento
voy a olvidar lo que gané, lo que perdí, lo siento

Ahora me queda detener el reloj
volver atras y ver que nos pasó
comerme la vida, pasando de tí
pensando solamente en mi, en mi

Yo, voy a seguir, sola sinti
lo siento

Voy a olvidar lo que gané
lo que perdí, lo siento

Algo que termina
algo que se queda en el aire se va,
no volverá
salvation, salvation
yo, voy a seguir, sola sin ti
lo siento

Voy a olvidar lo que gané
lo que perdí, lo siento
algo que termina
algo que se queda en el aire se va
no volverá
cuanto lo siento, cuanto lo siento


Spanish lyrics: Luis G. Escolar – HipHappy
