Lyrics
I just want to lead a simple life
Kiss goodnight a loving wife
Children sleeping safe in bed at night
A dog that barks ‘til the morning light
Fancy dress come Halloween
My pretty wife, my beauty queen
Gone fishing all day long
Drinking late and singing songs...
A simple life
A simple life
A simple life
A wonderful life
If you want it you can have it
If you want it, got to grab it
Do you really want it?
You’ve got to grab it
Lyrics
Oh Oh
Oh Oh
I tore the wall down
Let the enemy in
I found my
salvation
In the shadows of sin
Oh Oh
Oh Oh
I cursed your body baby
When you touched mine
I felt
your sweet lips sugar
Runnin' down my spine
And I
felt alive
I didn't feel nothin'
Sometimes I don't feel a
thing
Am I alive?
Oh Oh
Oh Oh
Slow Child, Slow...
Alive, Alive, Alive...
Dive a little deeper girl
Move a little closer girl
I
wanna be the only one
I wanna be the risin' sun
I didn't feel nothin'
Sometimes I don't feel a
thing
Am I alive?
Oh Oh
Oh Oh
Slow down child
Alive, Alive, Alive...
Oh Oh
Oh Oh
Lyrics
All i ever wanted was to see you smile
all you ever gave me was a troubled while
all that i ever needed was a word from you
all you never brought me, now I'm broke in two
And I'm out in the rain again
I can see the sun
Where are you when your not my friend?
I'm not the lonely one
And I'm out in the rain again
I can see the sun
I hope you had your fun
Sweet, sweet little lady of the night
sweet, my sweet little baby likes to bite
And I'm out in the rain again
I can see the sun
Where are you when your not my friend?
I'm not the lonely one
And I'm out in the rain again
I can see the sun
I hope... and everybody sing
Faith, lights, a city bleeds in the heart of a summer's
night
fate, lights, I'm down on my knees in the chill of a
winter's light
And I'm out in the rain again
I can see the sun
Where are you when your not my friend?
I'm not the lonely one
And I'm out in the rain again
I can see the sun
I hope you had your fun
All i ever wanted was to see you smile
Lyrics
Had the strangest day now
Strangers knockin' at my door
Your so far away now
Still I spoke to you on the phone
Who wants to feel alone with no one beside them?
Who wants to feel alone where no one will find them?
Who wants to feel alone?
Who wants to feel alone?
Not me, not me
Gotta pick up these pieces
'Cause I'm sure that it's all my fault
God, you tear me to pieces
And I'll trip on that pavement once more
Who wants to feel alone with no one beside them?
Who wants to feel alone where no one will find them?
Who wants to feel alone?
Who wants to feel alone?
Not me, not me
Who wants to feel alone with no one beside them?
Who wants to feel alone where no one will find them?
Who wants to feel alone?
Who wants to feel alone?
Not me, not me
Outro: I look within myself I don't know what I see
My heart is overgrown I don't what I feel
I'm always runnin' but I don't know why
My tears are fallin' from the big black sky

Why do you look so sad?
Why are you so blue?
Life is not all bad
And baby I love you
Whenever night falls (Ooh oh oh)
See the stars shining through
'Cause nothin' at all (Ooh oh oh)
Is gonna keep me from you
Baby I feel your pain
I'm cryin' for you again
Let sun shine through the rain
And I'll be there too
What you never had (Aha the way you look)
You can never lose
So baby don't feel bad (Aha the way you look)
Baby I love you
Whenever night falls (Ooh oh oh)
See the stars shining through
'Cause nothin' at all (Ooh oh oh)
Is gonna keep me from you
Baby I feel your pain
I'm cryin' for you again
Let sunshine through the rain
And I'll be there too
(la la la la la, la la la la la)
Baby I feel your pain (oh oh oh oh)
I'm cryin' for you again (oh oh oh oh)
Let sunshine through the rain (oh oh oh oh)
And I'll be there too (oh oh oh oh)
Baby I'm sure there's gold
The light that I see you hold
Don't leave me in the cold
I'm right beside you
Baby don't look back (oh oh oh oh)
Baby don't be blue (oh oh oh oh)
Baby don't look back (oh oh oh oh)
Baby I love you
Lyrics
I am working with my hands because I did not use my head
Now I learn to be a man, a man must make his own bread
I am crawling on the floor like many men have done before
The man above I can't ignore to keep the wolf far from my door
I have sailed out ‘ore the sea, the endless sky above me
To break the chains of charity where I was born but was not free
Throw me over and push me out, I am living from hand-to-mouth
I'll take my time and I'll shut my mouth, throw me over
and push me out
The price it costs I have to pay, the cost I pay I cannot say
This night will lead us to the day, the day will take my fears
away
A child is born, a man is made, a man's a child until he’s
saved
The child is father of the man; a father does the best he can...
Throw me over and push me out, I am living from hand-to-mouth
I'll take my time and I'll shut my mouth, throw me over
and push me out
You have tried and you have failed, you once stood but now
you're fallen
You heard the wisdom from the Gaels; taught maybe God was
callin'…
You were strong but now you're weak, you used to talk but now
you don't...
We used to laugh but now we only cry
Throw me over and push me out, I am living from hand-to-mouth
I'll take my time and I'll shut my mouth, throw me over
and push me out
Throw me over and push me out, I am living from hand-to-mouth
I'll take my time and I'll shut my mouth, throw me over
and push me out
I am working with my hands because I did not use my head
I'll used my heart instead...
Lyrics
Travellin' through the fields of snow
To see your eyes to let you know
That I've been blind, I see the light
Oh take me home this Christmas night
The bells all ring as the choir sing
Of a new born child, made a king
The streets a-glow and Christmas snow
And you and I 'neath the mistletoe
(Sha la la) oh happy Christmas
(Sha la la) it won't be long
(Sha la la) it's Christmas time
I'm comin' home where I belong
I'm racin' home to be with you doll
The drinks will flow, we'll dance 'til we fall
I'm racin' home to hold you close
To my heart where I miss you most
(Sha la la) oh happy Christmas
(Sha la la) it won't be long
(Sha la la) it's Christmas time
I'm comin' home where I belong
(Sha la la) for the ones your heart
(Sha la la) make the distance near
(Sha la la) for the ones apart
(Sha la la) for the ones so dear
(Sha la la) oh happy Christmas
(Sha la la) it won't be long
(Sha la la) it's Christmas time
I'm comin' home where I belong
(Sha la la) oh happy Christmas (Sing a song of joy this
Christmas)
(Sha la la) the yuletide's here (Raise your glass to a brave
new year)
(Sha la la) it's Christmas time (For the ones without, for the
ones within)
A Time for love and not for fear (At Christmas time we begin
again)
Lyrics
I went to the Father, I cried at His feet
He spoke to me as I was a child; ‘Wash your face my son,
there’s no shame in trying.
In failing you are born, a new day will dawn’
‘Look up to the sky if ever you falter
For I’ll be by your light forevermore’
I went to the Father, I fell at His feet
My burden so heavy, this valley so deep
‘Don’t be cross my son, be patient and kind
An eye for an eye, will soon lead you blind’
‘Look up to the stars for shelter from darkness’,
He said, ‘I’ll carry your cross whenever you fall’
I went to the Father and I washed His feet
To cleanse the promises that I did not keep
‘Start anew my son with light and with love
The King came from Heaven, white as a dove
‘The hole in your heart, He cut with a knife
Is the sword in your soul that’s giving you life’
I went to the Father, for I did not know
In the harvest of this life, we reap what we sow
‘Don’t be blind to see what’s good and what’s right
If darkness engulfs you, just walk to the light’
‘Lift up your heart for Heaven’s above you
If things fall apart, get up when you fall’
I went to Jesus and he set me free
Where once I was blind, now I can see.
Lyrics
I travel alone down this old highway
And with each turn I can't go back
All alone down at the byway
If you look close you'll see the cracks
I jumped ship into the ocean
Untied myself from the mast
A drowning man in slow motion
With a heart that's beating fast
My my oh my my, My my oh my my
My my oh my my, My my oh my my
The forest track that lays before me
Don't take me back to where I've been
Oh my friends how they adore me
The more I loose and less I win
My my oh my my, My my oh my my
My my oh my my, My my oh my my
Have I gone too far
For you to open up your arms?
Oh have I gone too far
That I will always bring you harm?
My my oh my my, My my oh my my
My my oh my my, My my oh my my
My my oh my my, My my oh my my
At the crossroads is where you'll find me
The road not taken can't be won
The trail of blood I leave behind me
Is just the shadow of the sun
Lyrics
Like a falling star unseen by the world of cheated slaves
isolated by choice floating on the waves
throwing caution to the wind
rising slowly to begin...
Now slightly out of shape but led victory through life's games
your still blessed with all that wonder
oppressed by all life's shames
look up to the star when the fever grips you
runaway don't let the world trick you
And your love will never grow too old for me
your love, it will never grow too old for me
your love will never grow too old for me
I could think of a million faces, take me away from here
the man who works mysteriously is the man who knows no fear
the stage it is set you performed just fine
the devil has entered but the star still shines
And your love will never grow too old for me
your love, it will never grow too old for me
your love will never grow too old for me
And don't be sent hopelessly driftin'
And don't be sent hopelessly driftin'
Ohh oh oh oh oh
Ohh oh oh oh oh
Lyrics
It seems like yesterday it was a fresh new romance
And God knows how my heart did dance
But you're not God and I knew that
Still I was too proud to raise my hand
Forgive me but don't forget me
Forgive me but don't forget me
Runnin' from love was like tryin' loose my shadow
Now where your footsteps fall I trace to follow
Such a foolish boy, a lost lonely soldier
Not prepared to enter the battle they call love
Forgive me but don't forget me
Forgive me but don't forget me
So why'd you even listen to a single word I said
I thought I told you girl that I'm no good in bed
So why'd you even listen to a single word I said
Thought I told you girl that I'm no good in bed
And I'm fucked up in the head
Forgive me but don't forget me
Forgive me but don't forget me
My love for you was like a wanderer who came and went
So believe me when I say I didn't know what love meant
And dedication to my joyful isolation
Deceived me well as I sang in my chains
Forgive me but don't forget me
Forgive me but don't forget me
And whil you were lonely I was just alone
A selfish boy sittin' on a naked throne
And now the tide has turned
I'll reep just what I've sown
A life of luxury is now a life alone
I don't want to be alone
Forgive me but don't forget me
Forgive me but don't forget me
Forgive me but don't forget me
Lyrics
I've gotta get out of the city
Where nobody knows my name
I've gotta get out of the city
Where sunshine falls like rain
I've gotta get out of the city
Where heavenly skies are blue, yeah
I've gotta get out of the city
I've gotta get back to you
I've gotta get out of the city
To an ocean or a desert plain
I've gotta get out of the city
Some place that can sooth my pain
Oh I gotta get out of the city
To meadows of green and hue, yeah
I've gotta get out of the city
Well you know in my heart
I been lonely and lost without you
You can tell by the way that I talk
And the things that I do
I've gotta get back to you
I've gotta get back to you (alright)
I've gotta get back to you (uh-huh)
I've gotta get back to you
I've gotta get out of the city
Where nobody knows my name
I've gotta get out of the city
Where sunshine falls like rain
I've gotta get out of the city
Where heavenly skies are blue, yeah
I've gotta get out of the city
I've gotta get back to you
Well you know in my heart
I been lonely and lost without you
You can tell by the way that I talk
And the things that I do
I've gotta get back to you (alright) I've gotta get back to you (uh-huh)
(You can tell by the way that talk)
I've gotta get back to youI've gotta get back to you (alright)
(And the things that I do)
I've gotta get back to you (uh-huh) I've gotta get back to you
(Well you know in my heart I been)
I've gotta get back to you (alright) I've gotta get back to you (uh-huh)
(Lonely and lost without you)
I've gotta get back to you
Lyrics
When I was a child my mama taught me good
Though I was young and wild I think I understood
My mama said that life is long
And in my head I hear her song
You got to slow down
You got to take your time
Don't you let this life break you down
Don't you go lose your mind
World's goin' crazy
Don't do this to me baby (baby)
Gotta take it slow
When lost in a maze and life's confusin' me
And I am so afraid for my own destiny
I fall to my knees, I begin to pray
I beg and plead to hear you say
You got to slow down
You got to take your time
Don't you let this life break you down
Don't you go lose your mind
World's goin' crazy
Don't do this to me baby
Gotta take it slow
I need it, I got it
I lost it, I found it
I'm losin' my mind yeah
I had it, I grabbed it
I booked it, I bagged it
Baby
I want just to taste it
And touch it, not waste it
Wow oh oh oh
You got to slow down
You got to take your time
Don't you let this life break you down
Don't you go lose your mind
World's goin' crazy (crazy)
Don't do this to me baby (baby)
We've got to slow down
We got to take your time
Don't you let this life break you down
Don't you go lose your mind
World's goin' crazy (crazy)
Don't do this to me baby (baby)
Gotta take it slow
Lyrics
Now I'm a young man who likes to be loved
Sure we all love to be liked a lot
And there's gold in my soul and there's warmth in my heart
Sure I'm as content as can be
Oh but once in a while I can't raise a smile
And I lose all control of myself
So what can i do if I'm not there with you
I need you here by my side
And as she...
cried by my shoulder I knelt down and told her
my love in this life was not she
she glanced at me slyly and said to me politely
'I've always known it was her
you had better not kiss me you'll be sad when you miss me
I’ll soon be gone, you'll be sad
she raised her eyes and looked to the skies
and said Jaysus man aren't you mad!
I said patience at first now there's no need to curse
just walk your way and forget
she said miss you I won't and love you i don't
for your my only regret
I said foolish old woman you blind old bat
can't you see beyond your confines?
that once in your leisure oh i was you treasure
and from time to time you were mine
she said 'Hey diddle diddle the cat did a piddle
and pissed all over the moon'
she said silence was golden that her love I’d stolen
and stripped herself of her pride
I said morals aside when lust cannot hide
now let's go inside for a shag
she said not now I’m beat and there's life on the street
besides I just had your dad
I said ‘papa don't preach, Madonna can't teach
she's fallen from riches to rags’,
‘you've stooped so low now you've nowhere to go
except where you will feel sad…’
And as she...
'You know you think you’re so hot but oh no you’re not,
you’re a selfish and spiteful young man
Well turn your lights down low babe you know where to go babe
the darkness will take you by hand
and it will lead you down your way to finally find your fate
with Alice in old wonderland
but before she did go now she found the strength somehow
to let me know what she feels
And as she...
You’re a dirty young prick with a pin for a dick
I’ll be glad to see your behind
a big kick up my arse and she called my life farce
and I was left standing blind
You’re a dirty young prick with a pin for a dick
I’ll be glad to see your behind
a big kick up my arse and she called my life farce
and I was left standing blind
and I was left standing blind
and I was left standing blind
Lyrics
So Christmas is a-comin' but just not to us
Last year I got a roller, this year I'll take the bus
All you sea-sick sailors who had to face the sea
From emerald ilse of Ireland to the Statue of Liberty
They bailed out all the banks, they nailed us to the cross
They took our sons and daughters, their gain was our loss
Now Paddy's in the ditches, without a place called home
And all those sons of bitches can reep just what they've
sown
'Cause it's hard times in Dublin again
Ah yeah it's hard times in Dublin again
'You know you think you’re so hot but oh no you’re not,
you’re a selfish and spiteful young man
Well turn your lights down low babe you know where to go babe
the darkness will take you by hand
and it will lead you down your way to finally find your fate
with Alice in old wonderland
but before she did go now she found the strength somehow
to let me know what she feels
They're sellin' off our land, they're gold is a new green
They're smiling from the cover of Time magazine
They're takin' back our houses, we'll have to sell the car
And if you don't pay them thousands then you won't go
very far
They're homeless in the street, they have no food to eat
The buskers have gone bust and they're singin' a new beat
What happen to compassion? To empathy and trust?
Man's only salvation now, is if he needs he must
And it's hard times in Dublin again
Ah yeah it's hard times in Dublin again
The tiger drove us mad, divided us with greed
Severed our communities with false liberty
A man made of possessions, possessing all the man
And now this cold reccession is breaking up our clan
Pack them in and pile them high, take the money, run
Laughing while they bleed us dry, with our heads to their guns
They lashed up tall skyscrapers in Ireland's fields of green
Well what's the point of New York in Bally fuckin' breen?
'Cause it's hard times in Dublin again
And in hard times we all need a friend
I need a friend, Someone who can help me stand
(Oh ah Paul McGrath, I said Oh ah Paul McGrath)
I need a friend, Someone who will lend a hand
(Oh ah Paul McGrath, I said Oh ah Paul McGrath)
Someone who will break my fall...
Someone who will here my call...
James Connolly, Damo Dempsey,
Jimmy Joyce, In Bod we Trust,
Ronnie Drew, Enda O’Brien, Oscar Wilde and U2,
Philip Lynott and Willie Yeats with Paddy Kavanagh at St.
James's Gate,
Mary Robinson and Christy Moore,
When Packie's save saved us all,
Paul Brady and Seamus Heaney,
Joey the lips and Imelda May’s bits...!
And it's hard times in Dublin again
Ah yeah it's hard times in Dublin again
There I was in New York, dreamin' a new dream
My friends so far flung apart, lives torn out at the seams
But we'll home for Christmas, so decorate the tree
Yeah we'll be home for Christmas and say prayer for me
I miss my mam and daddy and my sisters too
I miss my friends and family and a pint of Guinness too
They say it doesn't travel but I'm a Guinness man
So I'm comin' back to Dublin, I'm takin' back my land!
'Cause it's hard times in Dublin again
And in hard times we all need a friend.
Lyrics
Watch out! Your on your own now boy
Who chose the lonely life?
Who chose the lonely life?
Lay low, lay low i'm on your side
Who told a lonely lie?
Who told a lonely lie?
And all this time you never did know
Which way to look or where you could go
I want so much more from my life
Why do you hide the hurt inside?
It don't feel wrong but it's sure not right
I need you here tonight
I'm down, i'm down but i'm not out
I want to take what's mine
Don't want to waste your time
I push my foot down to the floor
I'm screamin' out, I'm beggin' for more, more, more
I want so much more from my life
Why do you hide the hurt inside?
It don't feel wrong but it's sure not right
I need you here tonight
And you could get more from your life
If you didn't hide the hurt inside
It don't feel wrong but it sure ain't right
I need you here tonight
And we could get more from our lives
if we didn't drown the voice inside
it don't feel wrong but it sure ain't right
I need you here tonight
Lyrics
You take me, you take me from my land
And I will follow you down.
You break me, you break me like a man
And I will follow you down
Faith please, I need it I've no plan
And I will follow you...
Sometimes i sit and ask myself
why am i doing what I just can't
Lonely, I'm clapping like a one-man-band
And I will follow you down.
Angry, I'm angry like a dog
And I will follow you down
Yes, I will follow you...
Sometimes i sit and ask myself
Why am i doing what I just can't
Why am I doing what I just can't?
Why am I doing what I just can't?
All these colours around me
All these colours around me
All these colours around me
All these colours around me
All these colours around me
All these colours around me
All these colours around me
All these colours around me
All these colours around me
All these feelings inside me
Oh dear God can't you hear me
Can you hear me?
All these colours around me
All these colours around me
All these colours around me
Lyrics
You were alone
Lost in the dark
I left a hole
Inside your heart
In my darkest night
You’re the brightest
Light I can see
(I want to show you...)
It’s a new day, a new day
See the sunrise, baby in your eyes
It’s a new day, a new day
See the sunrise on the rest of our lives
Oh I won’t let you go
You are the star
Above the sea
When I was lost
You rescued me
In my deep despair
You have always
Been there for me
(I want to show you it’s...)
It’s a new day, a new day
See the sunrise, baby in your eyes
It’s a new day, a new day
See the sunrise on the rest of our...
Lies and shame, when I let you down
Hurt and blame, I was lost, I’m found!
It’s a new day, a new day
See the sunrise, baby in your eyes
It’s a new day, a new day
See the sunrise baby in your eyes
It’s a new day, a new day
See the sunrise, baby in your eyes
It’s a new day, a new day
See the sunrise baby in your eyes
It’s a new day, a new day
See the sunrise, baby in your eyes
It’s a new day, a new day
See the sunrise on the rest of our lives
In my darkest night you’re the brightest light I can see
In my deep despair you have always been there for me
Lyrics
Your life looks empty
with all that you have
your plate so plenty
your eyes so sad
Your heart so low
in a crowded room
One for sorrow and
Two for doom...
You fell down from the sky into my life
Like a nuclear light
You sing a song of sorrow and delight
Like a nuclear light
And I can hear you crying’ late at night
‘Cause something isn’t right
Like a nuclear light
You sail every Sunday
Your days are yours to choose
No such thing as Monday
For those who get to choose
I am beneath you
That’s how I see above
Not here to deceive you
We are hand in glove...
You fell down from the sky into my life
Like a nuclear light
You sing a song of sorrow and delight
Like a nuclear light
And I can hear you crying’ late at night
‘Cause something isn’t right
Like a nuclear light
Don’t you wanna talk with me?
I really need to talk with you
Don’t you wanna see me?
You’re in my head at night
Like a nuclear light
Oh oh oh child
Oh oh oh save me
Oh oh oh child
Oh oh oh save me...
Lyrics
Give me your tired and your poor
Give me the frail who flee from war
A new frontier where love conquers fear
A lamp that will light up the shore
Give me your weary and your weak
Give me the child who cannot speak
A northern star that guides from afar
A friend who gives strength to the meek
America, America, open the door to your heart
America, America, a light that will shine through the dark
Home of the Indian betrayed
Land of the white man and the slave
A black king is sworn, a nation reborn
The land of the free and the brave
America, America, open the door to your heart
America, America, a light that will shine through the dark
Keep us safe in your arms far away from harm
Keep us safe in your arms far away from the storm
America, America, open the door to your heart
America, America, a light that will shine through the dark
America, America, open the door to your heart
America, America, a light that will shine through the dark
America, America, open the door to your heart
America, America, a light that will shine through the dark
Lyrics
Never was what you wanted of me
I couldn't look to you 'cause you'd see through me
I always said that I'd never believe
It just takes too much time to explain what I mean
And it takes one step forward
So I take two back
One step forward
My heart isn't crushed it's cracked
Whoever thought things would turn out this way?
Oh no I never thought I'd be here today
Sometimes I wish that I could say what you said
Sometimes there's fire in my heart and in my head
One step forward so I take two back
One step forward my heart isn't crushed it's cracked
My heart isn't crushed it's cracked
There's many things I need to get off my chest
Yes, there's many thoughts I'd like to put to rest
There's many people to whom I should confess to
I'd take the time but you all know how it is...
One step forward so I take two back
One step forward my heart isn't crushed it's cracked
My heart isn't crushed it's cracked
One step forward, just one step forward
One step forward, just one step forward
One step forward, let me take one forward
One step forward, my heart isn't crushed it's cracked
One step forward
Lyrics
I smell you sneaking up behind my back
Your plot has leaked out now your cauldrons’ cracked
But I’m too weak willed to attack, now I’m on my back
I notice the glare in your eye
As you stare down and declare that I die
I want to scream at you but I’m just too shy
So I guess this is goodbye
If you can’t tell me how you feel
If you can’t say that
If you can’t say that...
I hear you like to think you got it all solved
That there’s no puzzle here where we’re involved
Why is it then I feel that we’re losing grip on a one way trip?
But still you steal to stay on top
You watch them all as they just drop
I’m not surprised but I wish I was
I wish I couldn’t see your eyes, that disguise that you can’t hide
If you can’t tell me how you feel
If you can’t say that
If you can’t say that...
If you can’t tell me how you feel
If you can’t say that
If you can’t say that...
If you can’t tell me how you feel
If you can’t say that
If you can’t say that...
Lyrics
What are we going to do?
I’ve lost everything we had
Have I got you?
What are you gonna say?
If the dark clouds come
To take our light away
I need you
To be strong
Don’t be scared
And hold on...
Remember all the things we did
We’ve been running wild in time
Since we were kids
‘Said I’d never let you down
But some things we say get
Lost before their found...
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
I can see you face in the stars at night
I can see a time when everything is alright
I can see you face in the stars at night
I can see a time when everything is alright
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
We don’t dance, we don’t laugh
Or hold hands, Photograph...
We were born, before time
I was made for you and you are mine
You are mine...
I can see you face in the stars at night
I can see a time when everything is alright
I can see you face in the stars at night
I can see a time when everything is alright
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
I need you
To be strong
Don’t be scared
And hold on...
Lyrics
And I could try to be cool and say I don't
But who knows what you might say?
And I could try to be hip and have a smoke
And blow all my worries away
In a funny way I always feel better
When I say these things don't matter
In a funny way I always feel better
When I’m with you
Who knows what we might find?
There's a light in the sky shines down on me
Makes me see though I’m blind
When i feel it the wind it sets me free
And opens the doors to my mind
In a funny way I always feel better
When i say these things don't matter
In a funny way I always feel better
When I’m with you
Who knows what we might find?
Sha la la la la la la la la la
Open your eyes boy your blind
In a funny way I always feel better
When I say these things don't matter
In a funny way I always feel better
When I’m with you
Lyrics
In a time when I had freedom, free to change my mind
I felt the curse of freedom, freedom was so blind
Alone I rose to walk the streets of London's wonderland
To rest my head and my feet by late night coffee stands
And viewed the moon so blindly in the splendour of my sight
In the darkness of a dying dream my heart was set alight
I heard the cries from the lost souls stripped from their streets so grand
And forgot how things look familiar to strangers in forgein lands
The sun would beat upon the street where I would wait and watch
A distant crowd of strangers meet 'neath the ticking of the clock
Aloud i cried it's not for you! The light is mine to see
And won't be blinded like the fool who tries but cannot be
Slow the nights were passing as I lay down on my bed
Heard the angels singing sweet music in my head
Aloof in crowds so distant when I turned to take her hand
The silence said 'resistance is the sword of modern man'
And now much time has passed, all that's been is gone
I look to the future and i know the road is long
And still i dream of you and what you brought to me
A love so blind it gave me freedom to see
In a time when I had freedom, free to change my mind
I felt the curse of freedom, freedom was so blind
Lyrics
Goodbye, don't you turn you'll only see me cry
Oh I'll try, I'll try to keep my head up high
I hope you know I miss you much
But I can't taste what I won't touch...
This is what I need
Sometime to think and some space to breathe
I've gotta find my feet
Cause I'm two steps behind everyone I meet
And it's breaking me down
Home, I'm leaving, I'm leaving home
Goodbye, Don't you turn don't want to see you cry
And oh you try, you try and keep your head up high
And when times get hard and I'm on my own
I think of you and I don't feel alone
This is what I need
Sometime to think and some space to breathe
I've gotta find my feet
Cause I'm two steps behind everyone I meet
Home, I'm leaving, I'm leaving home
Home, I'm leaving, I'm leaving home
And don't you turn you'll only see me cry
Don't you turn don't want to say goodbye
Don't you turn, I'll see you soon
No sorrow.
Lyrics
We were flying too close to the sun
Now all of our work is undone
I was riding too high in the sky
When storm clouds appeared in my eyes
And don’t you know that I...
Keep falling from the sky at night
And don’t you know that I...
Can’t tell the darkness from the light
We’d been chasing our tails for too long
And all that we built is now gone
I was trying too hard to be found
When all of my dreams ran aground
And don’t you know that I...
Keep falling from the sky at night
And don’t you know that I...
Can’t tell the darkness from the light
Each time I see you I start losing control
And I don’t know what to say...
I just hold on because I can’t let go
And I feel I’ve lost my way...
And don’t you know that I...
Keep falling from the sky at night
And don’t you know that I...
Can’t tell the darkness from the light
And don’t you know that I...
Keep falling from the sky at night
And don’t you know that I
Can’t tell the darkness from the light
We were flying too close to the sun
Before our time even begun...
Lyrics
Let it go, let it go, the future’s not ours to see
The past is gone, it's here you belong
Be happy in your heart, you'll be free
I must have tried a million times
To reach up high and touch the sky but where's my head?
I must have told a million lies,
Forgotten may alibis of things I said
I guess I never told the truth in my misspent
Forgotten youth but what's the point?
And I guess I never was what I could have been to you
Sometimes the things we want to say we never seem to do ...
(Um-um-um-um)
Let it go, let it go, the future's not ours to see
The past is gone, it's here you belong
Be happy in your heart, you'll be free
I must have thrown a million stones
Tryin' to break somebody else's bones, now where are they
I remember being happy then when we were young
And we were friends but where are you?
It was on one restless winter's night
When I let you slip out from my sight, now what can I do?
I remember trying to tell you how I was when I was blue
Thank God you were there for me you know that I'm still here for you...
Let it go, let it go, the future's not ours to see
The past is gone, it's here you belong
Be happy in your heart, you'll be free
Let it go, let it go, the future's not ours to see
The past is gone, it's here you belong
Be happy in your heart, you'll be free
Ah ah ah-ah ah ah ah-ah ah ah-ah ah
Ah ah ah-ah ah ah ah-ah
Ah ah ah-ah ah ah ah-ah
Lyrics
I watch the rain fall to the sea
it's just the moon, myself and me
and my soul longing to be free
to fade into the light, into it's mystery
a shadow circles on the sand
as i dream of foreign lands
and i reach out to touch your hand
'cause i'm lost at sea
who's gonna rescue me?
And oh your lights shining through now
love you got to me somehow
lonely eyes just stare out to sea
and your green eyes just stare back at me
the years are slowly slippin' by
and i just want you by my side
close your eyes and i'll close mine
if we get lost at sea
won't you drown with me?
and oh your lights shinning through now
love you got to me somehow
i was lost and low without you how
lonely nights not sleeping with you
when your green eyes just made mine blue
Lyrics
Only a fool will allow pride push him aside
Only a fool will allow pride keep feelings inside
Only a fool will allow pride to stand in the way
Of what you really wanna say...
Only a fool dresses in darkness then talks of light
Only a fool believes in the myth of mind over the truth of sight
Only a fool will watch love leave and never think to talk or breath
Only a fool will believe there's no hope
Only a fool will strike the match and smell no smoke
Only a fool will laugh out loud when he's the joke
Only a fool needs to kneel down and die
Just so he can feel alive
Only a fool dresses in darkness then talks of light
Only a fool believes in the myth of mind over the truth of sight
Only a fool will watch love leave and never think to talk or breath
Only a fool will believe there's no hope
Yes only a fool believes in the rope
Da da da
Ain't no time left to borrow from the night
Ain't no tears left to loose sight
Ain't no friend gone to where you can't go
Ain't no one strong who sinks down below
Only a fool (and I'm such a fool to wanna be your fool)
Da da da da, no no no
Da da da da, no no no
And to where we will go we may not ever know
And what we will be is not up to you or me
To be who you are, to strong, to be free, to be you, to be me
Only a fool dresses in darkness then talks of light
Only a fool believes in the myth of mind over the truth of sight
Only a fool will watch love leave and never think to talk or breath
Only a fool, don't believe there's no hope
Yes only a fool believes in the rope
Ain't no time left to borrow from the night
Ain't no tears left to loose sight
Ain't no friend gone to where you can't go
I wanna get high but I feel so low
Only a fool (and I'm such a fool to wanna be your fool)
Da da da da, no no no
Da da da da, no no no...
Lyrics
Hold me close in the morning sun
'Neath the sky when the day is young
Hold me tight in a moonlight shower
Let love make bright the darkest hour
Oh in your eyes I found myself
All lost inside somebody else
And when you rise in the morning
Look in my eyes oh my darling
See me smile, a day is dawning
See me smile, our day is dawning
Hold me still beneath your breath
'Fore my heart falls for death
Hold me high within your sight
For yours is mine – the brighest light!
Oh in your eyes I found myself
All lost inside somebody else
And when you rise in the morning
Look in my eyes oh my darling
See me smile, a day is dawning
See me smile, our day is dawning
And in my eyes you see truth
That beauty fades but love is ever new
And when you rise in the morning
Look in my eyes oh my darling
See me smile, a day is dawning
See me smile, our day is dawning
Hold me close in the morning sun
'Neath the sky when the day is young
Lyrics
Let’s not wait ’til the water runs dry
To have the very time of our lives
Let’s not wait ’til the daylight is done
When life has already begun
This is our song, this our song
Better leave at the starting gun
There’s only one race to run
And this is our song
Let’s not wait ’til the shadows appear
And live our lives stranded in fear
Let’s not wait ’til the darkness has come
When life has already begun
This is our song, this our song
Better leave at the starting gun
There’s only one race to run
And this is our song
And life has already begun...
This is our song, this our song
Better leave at the starting gun
There’s only one race to run
And life has already begun...
This is our song, this our song
Better leave at the starting gun
There’s only one race to run
This is our song, this is our song
Better leave at the starting gun
There’s only one race to run
And this is our song
Don’t wait to begin
Lyrics
Save your love for me
I can see the future through our past
Turn your face away from that sorrow
I promise you this time our love will last…
I held your love before, And what am I your pretty whore?
I fought the world for you, You fight yourself, you fight me to, oh
Save your love for me, oh, save your love for me
I can't resist your eyes, you don't see them when they cry
My mind is all for you, your heart don’t feel it like I do, oh
Save your love for me, oh, save your love for me
Oh can't you see that I'm lost without you?
Why can't you tell how much I want you?
Oh can't you see that I'm lost without you?
Our love’s a bad bet, like Russian Roulette
(ahh ah ahh ah ahh)
I can't resist your thighs, I can't listen to all your lies
I bared my soul for you, I told you things you never knew
You laugh, you talk me down, treat me like a stupid clown
I think the world of you, I thought it then and I still do, oh
Save your love for me, oh, save your love for me
Oh can't you see that I'm lost without you?
Why can't you tell how much I want you?
Oh can't you see that I'm lost without you?
Our love’s a bad bet, like Russian Roulette
(ohh oh ohh oh ohh)
We spun the gun, we lost and won, our love’s like the setting sun
We spun the gun, we lost and won, our love’s like the setting sun
We spun the gun, we lost and won, our love’s like the setting sun
And what am I your pretty whore? Another thing you’re fighting for
Let’s spin the gun, let’s have some fun, if the bullet blows we’ll both be done
You laugh and talk me down, you treat me like a stupid clown
I held your love before, I lost it in a game of war
You’ll be my last regret, the only one I won’t forget oh
Save your love for me
Save your love for me
(ohh oh ohh oh ohh)
Lyrics
When a new day dawns
And the world is bright
And the sun shines her light for us to see
I will be strong, I will carry on
So long as you stay, stay with me
(Oh baby baby)
Stay with me, stay with me
Stay with me, stay with me
If the seas we sail
Should rise and flood
Or the city lights fade to dusk
I will be strong, I will carry on
So long as you stay, stay with me
(Oh baby baby)
Stay with me, stay with me
Stay with me, stay with me
Through the winds of change
In the darkest night
On the stormy sea
I can see your light
Stay with me, stay with me
Stay with me, stay with me
Stay with me, stay with me
Stay with me, stay with me
Lyrics
Out of the dark came the brightest light
You were the star through my darkest night
I buried my secret in the dark of your heart
So no one would find you or keep us apart
You held the key to unlock my stare
I could hear voices that were not there
I kissed your lips in the poison rain
Our hearts like thunder through the pain
We were like sailors then, you were my long-lost friend
Riding the waves, riding the waves (through the storm)
You were the only one, I found beneath the sun
Riding the waves, riding the waves (through the storm)
The deeper the sea, the brighter the moon
She cast her spell but left us too soon
We were alone in a world full with lies
I gave up my mind to be by your side
We were like sailors then, you were my long-lost friend
Riding the waves, riding the waves (through the storm)
You were the only one, I found beneath the sun
Riding the waves, riding the waves (through the storm)
Now I am lost at sea, with no one to comfort me
It's dark, I cannot breath, I'm under the waves won't you rescue me?
We were like sailors then, you were my long-lost friend
Riding the waves, riding the waves (Through The Storm)
You are the only one I found beneath the sun
Riding the waves, riding the waves (through the storm)
We were like sailors then, you were my long-lost friend
Riding the waves, riding the waves (Through The Storm)
You were the only one, I found beneath the sun
Riding the waves, riding the waves (Through The Storm)
I was lost at sea (Through The Storm)
Won’t you rescue me (Through The Storm)
Out of the dark came the brightest light
Lyrics
When the sadness sets in and you know not where to go
Your heart it feels heavy and head it sinks low
When the daylight is done but your works' yet begun
Your low in your highchair, night leading you on
If the north wind blows in and your cold heart goes out
Your feet are so busy but draggin' you south
Oh I've sailed the world's seas and I can't find my port
By the light of the bright moon I still come up short
My home do I miss, when will fate lend a kiss?
If you never had nothin' there'd be nothin' to miss
N'ver a fighter was born who did not shed blood
To get to the forest,gotta walk through the mud
If you know your own path then live and let be
And the sorrow that binds you will soon set you free
Lyrics
There's a wishing well beyond the hill
My heart is heavy but it's beating still
I follow the river through the wooded way
Where branches are made green by light of the sun
And golden waters flow sending ripples to the bay
The ocean never knowing spring and tide are one
The backbird sings alone it echoes through the vale
The peace is slow but it does come
The multitude abreast fighting for a sale
The mountain we climb hides the winter sun
There's a wishing well beyond the hill
My heart is heavy but it's beating still
There's a wishing well beyond the hill
My heart is heavy but it's beating still
Come with me my friend and burrow down this track
Where few have tread the leafy way
We do not look below the wind is at our backs
And to the wind we begin to say...
'Here we are, as we stand
Foot to foot and hand in hand
Know not where were going but together it will be
The river ever flowing somehow always finds the sea'
There's a wishing well beyond the hill
My heart is heavy but it's beating still
There's a wishing well beyond the hill
My heart is heavy but it's beating still
But it's beating still
But it's beating still
But it's beating still
Instrumental
Lyrics
I am like a child,
Don’t wanna leave you
My heart is goin’ wild,
How I need you
I know what’s on your mind,
Don’t wanna hurt you no more
You said you’d never leave
But you left me
alone on my knees
What am I gonna do?
I’m lost without you
Why do we break up?
When sooner or later we’ll make up
The more that you push me away
I just want to stay
You are like the wind,
that’s blowin’ through me
You’re cold upon my skin,
the way you use me,
With no one in my heart
I am lost in the dark
I didn’t wanna go
But you pushed me
Away now I’m alone
How am I to survive
Without you by my side?
Why do we break up?
When sooner or later we’ll make up
The more that you push me away
I just want to stay
It gets a little lonely without you here by my side
Darlin’ won’t you hold me, this love I can’t hide
Every time we touch, I break down and cry
Why do we break up?
When sooner or later we'll make up
The more that you push me away
I just want to stay
Why do we break up?
When sooner or later we'll make up
The more that you push me away
I just want to stay
Why do we break up? (Why do we break up? We’re just gonna make up)
When sooner or later we'll make up (Each time you leave me)
The more that you push me away (I see you walking away)
I just want to stay
Lyrics
Guess I slipped up somewhere I don’t know when
Midway through my life
Bet we all fall sometime we need a friend
Midway through our lives
It’s okay, we all fuck up sometimes
It’s alright, don’t get bogged down by bad times
It’s okay, we live and we learn we don’t lose
Sure we all start some things we never begin
Midway through our lives
Once in a while we let the stranger in
Midway through our lives
It’s okay, we all fuck up sometimes
It’s alright, don’t get bogged down by bad times
It’s okay, we live and we learn we don’t lose
All life’s little let downs that break you they shape you to be you
You’ll live to learn from the fortune of fall which awaits you
This is true
Sometimes we all say things we don’t really mean
Midway through our lives
Not all the time are things just how they seem
Midway through our lives
It’s okay, we all fuck up sometimes
It’s alright, don’t get bogged down by bad times
It’s okay, we live and we learn we don’t lose
If they’re blind to see the person inside well it’s their loss at their cost
Don’t believe what they say about you cause it’s not true
This is true
Lyrics
I was buried down deep
In the ditch where you found me
I was hungry for love
With no one around
I was beaten and bruised
In a hole where they left me
I was cheated and used
All alone again
I lost my faith, Then I found you
You dug me out, now I'm diggin' you
You were lost without trace on an empty rooftop
When I saw your face neath’ the neon sky
We went all night, our body’s shiver
I watched your star light up the desert sky
I lost my faith, Then I found you
You dug me out, now I'm diggin' you
And if you should fall, I will be there for you
Whenever you call, I will be there
And if you should fall, I will be there for you
Whenever you call, I will be there
I lost my faith, Then I found you
You dug me out, now I'm diggin' you
I lost my faith, Then I found you
You dug me out, now I'm diggin' you
What we have baby
You could have too
Some call it love
Comes from above
One thing for sure
Your hand, my glove
Your hand, my glove
Lyrics
I want your body, wanna hold you, wanna kiss you night and day
I wanna be the only one who hears the silly things you say
I wanna be the only one or there'll be hell to pay
And if somebody ever loved you this much I would walk away
I don't want no part-time lover
I'm a fool for your heart
No part-time lover
So start but don't stop
You want my body every minute, every hour, every day
You wanna get with me, get on your knees and girl you better pray
You wanna be the only one well there's a price to pay
And if somebody ever loved you this much I would walk away
I don't want no part-time lover
I'm a fool for your heart
No part-time lover
So start but don't stop
Oh Lord, Oh Lord, Oh Lord, you know she's my baby blue
Oh Lord, Oh Lord, Oh Lord, Oh Lord, she's my baby blue
I don't want no part-time lover
I'm a fool for your heart
No part-time lover
So start but don't stop
Lyrics
I've been so foolish with my time
i been so selfish and unkind
you know i'm tryin' to find my way
oh Lord i've walked the darkest day
you know i feel misunderstood
there's somethin' else i need to say
but i just turn and walk away
oh lord i've walked the darkest day
Lord i've walked the darkest day
i climb up every mountain
oh Lord light my way
i've been beaten, i've been bruised
been so lonely and confused
wild riot runnin' round my mind
the road to you i just can't find
so long to love that's gone to waste
she left me bitter with this taste
and still i try to find my way
oh lord i've walked the darkest day
Lord i've walked the darkest day
i climb up every mountain
oh Lord light my way
Lord i've been down
head in the ground
i climb up every mountain
oh Lord light my way
Lord i've walked the darkest day
i climb up every mountain
oh Lord light my way
Lyrics
Hear the wind above the sea
The moon is calling out to me
Light as it passes on the way
Tracin' shadows 'round the bay
Dance with the stars shinnin' above
Swim in the ocean of your love
Rise though the tide may turn against you
Know the children are above you
And hear the voice that calls you from within
Make a choice to let the light shine in
There's a darkness that is real
There's a spirit I can feel...
Stand up now be a man
Give and live the best you can
Walk the road that lies before you
Know that I am here beside you
Love, love will find a way
Night will always find the day
And you will find your way to me
Like a river finds the sea
And hear the voice that calls you from within
Make a choice to let the light shine in
There's a darkness that is real
There's a spirit I can feel...
And hear the voice that calls you from within
Make a choice to let the light shine in
There's a darkness that is real
There's a spirit I can feel...
Lyrics
In the garden we were young again
Innocence, runnin' wild and free like the wind
The ocean as clear as the sky
The light that I saw as a child
Was burning bright, burning bright
The haunted fields where we used to play
On the beach, throwin' stownes out into the bay
The ships that would sail out to sea
Above the sun smiling for me
Was burning bright, burning bright
Then came the thunder and the lightning in the sky
Our heart's asunder as we watched the river dry
Oh the light it is bright
The light that lifts up your night
Is burning bright, is burning bright
The winter came and the light grew dim
In our hearts, we forgot the things we knew then
And sang in our chains like the sea
Above the moon laughing at me
It's burning bright, it's burning bright
Then came the thunder and the lightning in the sky
Our heart's asunder as we watched the river dry
Oh the light it is bright
The light that lifts up your night
Is burning bright, is burning bright
And the wind she is ragin'
For a heart that is aching through the night
And the moon she is cryin'
For a star that is dyin' will burn bright
A light that I know
Is burning bright, is burning bright
Lyrics
Train left the station in the darkened night
guess i'll just whistle my way home again
fell into temptation beneath the street light
seeing your ghost there i guess i got scared
And you say...
wait 'til the morning light
wait 'til the feeling's right
wait 'til the morning light
and i'll be with you
So i stroll into a low lit room
i can see the mirror glare back at me
she offers me something
i don't understand
she ain't wearing nothing
but your all i see
And you say...
wait 'til the morning light
wait 'til the feeling's right
wait 'til the morning light
i'll be with you
wait 'til the morning light
wait 'til the feeling's right
wait 'til the morning light
i'll be with you
alone again with you my friends
today i learned to fight the feeling more
i want more and more
So i throw on my shoes and i'll tie my lace
i'm staring back at you but i can't see your face
and so i shut the door and i'll make my way
back into the night but i can't hear your voice
won't you say...
wait 'til the morning light
wait 'til the feeling's right
wait 'til the morning light
i'll be with you
wait 'til the morning light
wait 'til the feeling's right
wait 'til the morning light
i'll be with you
i'll be loving you
guess i'll just whistle my way home again
today i learned to fight the feeling more
i want more and more
Lyrics
You broke through, you pierced my skin
But baby that's all over now.
You speak to me, a storm begins
But baby it's all over now
You held me to help me
But baby that's all over now
My heart starts poundin' when your around and
Still I know that I can touch your heart
It's been over for all those years
And so this penance is mine, I did the crime
All i caused you was pain and tears
With the secrets i kept, they're never yours they're mine
And still she haunts me
She haunts me through the night
Why does she hurt me?
This torture don't feel right
And still she haunts me
She haunts me through the night
Why does she hurt me?
I know I don't feel right
You touch me, I'll break free
But baby that's all over now
Old days are gone now you moved on
Well i suppose it's all for the best
And i was wrong to lead you on
Through that tunnel towards a dark tempest
I fucked up baby you drive me crazy
I'm so sorry that i made you cry
It's been over for all those years
And so this penance is mine i did the crime
All i caused you was pain and tears
With the secrets i kept they're never yours they're mine
my crime, my time...
And still she haunts me
She haunts me through the night
Why does she hurt me?
This torture don't feel right
And still she haunts me
She haunts me through the night
Why does she hurt me?
I know i don't do right
it's been over for all those years
it's about time have i served my crime?
Lyrics
Been such a long time
Since I saw your face
Been such a hard time
I’m all over the place
Callin’ to let you know
I don’t want to let you go
And now the flowers are dyin’
Mama, I can’t stop cryin’
Thought I saw you
Walkin’ on the street
This song is for you...
Why do you forsake me?
Thought I heard your voice
In Love there is no choice
Truth is you think I’m lyin’
Mama, I can’t stop cryin’
Say you’ll be mine, like I was yours
When as a child, (I was) safe in your arms
This waterfall ain’t for dryin’
Mama, I can’t stop cryin’
Such a long time
Since I saw your face
I’ve had a hard time
Since our fall from grace
There’s no sense in denying
Something precious is dying
Mama, I can’t stop cryin’
Mama, I can’t stop now
