It's late
in the evening
she's wondering
what clothes to wear
She puts on
her makeup
and brushes her
long blonde hair
And then she asks me
"Do I look all right?"
And I say
"Yes you look
wonderful tonight."
We go to a party
and everyone
turns to see
this beautiful lady
is walking
around with me
And then she asks me
"Do you feel
all right?"
And I say "Yes I feel
wonderful tonight"
I feel wonderful
because I see the love
light in your eyes
Then the wonder
of it all
is that you just
don't realize
how much I love you.

it's time to go
home now
and I've got an
aching head
So I give her
the car keys
and she helps me to bed
And then I tell her
as I turn out the light
I say
"My darling you are
wonderful tonight"
Oh my darling you are
wonderful tonight-

This is gonna
hurt
But I blame myself
first
'Cause I ignored
the truth
Drunk off of that love
my head up
There's no forgetting
you
You've awoken me
but you're choking me
I was so obsessed
gave you all of me
And now honestly
I got nothing left
I loved you
dangerously
More than the air
that I breathe
Knew we would crash
at the speed
That we were going
didn't care
If the explosion
ruined me
Baby I loved you
dangerously mmm mmm
I loved you
dangerously
Usually
I hold the power
With both my hands
tied behind my back
Look at
how things changed
'Cause now you're
the train
And I'm tied
to the track
You've awoken me
but you're choking me
I was so obsessed
gave you all of me
And now honestly
I got nothing left
'Cause I loved you
dangerously
More than the air
that I breathe
Knew we would crash
at the speed
That we were going
didn't care
If the explosion
ruined me
Baby I loved you
dangerously
You took me down down
down down
And kissed my lips
with goodbye
I see it now now
now now
It was a matter
of time
You know
I know
There's only one place
this could lead
But you are the fire
and I'm gasoline
I love you I love you
I love you
I loved you
dangerously
Woo more than the air
that I breathe
Oh now knew we would
crash at the speed
That we were going
didn't care
If the explosion
ruined me
Oh oh baby I loved you
dangerously mmm mmm
Woo I loved you
dangerously
Woo I loved you
dangerously

Wise men say
only fools rush in
But I can't help
falling in
love with you
shall I stay?
Would it be a sin
if I can't help falling
in love with you
Like a river flows
surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Somethings are
meant to be
Take my hand
take my whole life too
For I can't help
falling in
love with you
Like a river flows
surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Somethings are
meant to be
Take my hand take
my whole life too
For I can't help
falling in
love with you
For I can't help
falling in
love with you.

You're just too
good to be true
Can't take my eyes
off you
You'd be like
heaven to touch
I wanna hold you
so much
At long last
love has arrived
And I thank god
I'm alive
You're just too
good to be true
Can't take my eyes
off you
Pardon the way
that I stare
There's nothin
else to compare
The sight of you
leaves me weak
There are no words
left to speak
But if you
feel like I feel
Please let me know
that it's real
You're just too
good to be true
Can't take my eyes
off you

I love you baby
and if it's
Quite all right
I need you baby
To warm the
lonely night
I love you baby
trust in me when I say
Oh pretty baby
don't bring me
Down I pray
oh pretty baby
Now that I found
you stay
And let me
love you
Baby let me
love you
You're just too
good to be true
Can't take my eyes
off you
You'd be like
heaven to touch
I wanna hold you
so much
At long last
love has arrived
And I thank god
I'm alive
You're just too
good to be true
Can't take my eyes
off you

I love you baby
and If It's
Quite all right
I need you baby
To warm the
lonely night
I love you baby
trust in me when I say
Oh pretty baby
don't bring me
Down I pray
oh pretty baby
Now that I found
you stay
Love you baby
trust in me when I say
I need you baby

Down I pray
oh pretty baby
Now that I found
you stay
And let me
love you
Baby let me
love you

Oh my heart
won't believe
that you have left me
I keep telling myself
that it's true
I can get over anything
you want my love
but I can't get myself
over you
Don't forget to
remember me
and the love that
used to be
I still remember you
I love you in my heart
lies a memory
To tell the stars above
Don't forget to
remember me my love
On my wall lies
a photograph
of you girl- -
though I try to forget
you somehow
You're the mirror
of my soul so take me
out of my whole let me
try to go on living
right now
Don't forget to
remember me
and the love that
used to be
I still remember you
I love you in my heart
lies a memory
To tell the stars above
Don't forget to
remember me
my love.

Oh woo wo oh woo wo

You know you love me
I know you care
Just shout whenever
and I'll be there
You want my love
you want my heart
And we will never ever
ever be apart
Are we an item
girl quit playing
We're just friends
what are you saying
Said there's another
look right in my eyes
My first love
broke my heart
For the first time
and I was like
Baby baby baby oh like
baby baby baby no like
Baby baby
baby oh
Thought you'd
always be mine mine
Baby baby baby oh like
baby baby baby no like
Baby baby
baby oh
Thought you'd
always be mine mine
Oh oh for you I would
have done whatever
And I just can't
believe
We ain't
together
And I wanna
play it cool
But I'm
losin' you
I'll buy you anything
I'll buy you any ring
And I'm in pieces
baby fix me
And just shake me
til' you
Wake me
from this bad dream
I'm going down down

And I just can't
believe my first love
Would be around

Baby baby baby oh like
baby baby baby no like
Baby baby
baby oh
Thought you'd
always be mine mine
Baby baby baby oh like
baby baby baby no like
Baby baby

Thought you'd
always be mine mine
When I was 13
I had my first love
There was nobody that
compared to my baby
And nobody came
between us
Or could ever
come above
She had me goin' crazy
oh I was star-struck
She woke me up
daily
Don't need no
Starbucks
She made
my heart pound
And skip
a beat
When I see her
in the street
And at school
on the playground
But I really wanna
see her on the weekend
She know
she got me gazin'
Cuz she was
so amazin'
And now my heart is
breakin'
But I just
keep on sayin'
Baby baby baby oh like
baby baby baby no like
Baby baby
baby oh
Thought you'd
always be mine mine
Baby baby baby oh like
baby baby baby no like
Baby baby
baby oh
Thought you'd
always be mine mine
I'm gone
now I'm all gone
Now I'm all gone
now I'm all gone
I'm
gone

Digging

Friday night and

Looking out for

Umm where they play

Getting
in the swing
You come to
look for a king
Anybody could be

Night is young and
the music's high
With a bit of
rock music
Everything

You're in the mood

And when you get

The tambourine

I can see the pain
living in your eyes
And I know how
hard you try
You deserve to have
so much more
I can feel your hurt
and I sympathize
And I'll never
critisize
All you ever meant
to my life-
I don't want to
let you down
I don't want to
lead you on
I don't want to
hold you back from
Where you might
belong
You would
never ask me why
My heart is
so disguised
I just can't
live a lie anymore
I would- rather
hurt myself
Than to ever
make you cry
There's nothing
left to say
But goodbye
ah- goodbye-
You deserve a chance
at the kind of love
I'm not sure I'm
worthy of
Losing you is painful
for me
I don't want to
let you down
I don't want to
lead you on
I don't want to
hold you back
From where you
might belong
You would never
ask me why
My heart is
so disguised
I just can't
live a lie anymore
I would rather
hurt myself
Than to ever
make you cry
There's nothing
left to say-
But
goodbye-

You would never
ask me why
My hurt is
so disguised
I just can't
live a lie anymore
I would- rather
hurt myself
Than to ever
make you cry
There's nothing
left you try
No it's gonna
hurt us both
There's no other way
than to say goodbye
Uhm----
goodbye-

An empty street
an empty house
A hole inside my heart
I'm all alone
The rooms are
getting smaller
I wonder how
I wonder why
I wonder where they
are the days we had
The songs we sang
together oh yeah
And oh my love
I'm holding on forever
Reaching for a love
that seems so far
So I say
a little prayer
And hope my dreams
will take me there
Where the skies
are blue
To see you once again
my love
Over seas from
coast to coast
To find the place
I love the most
Where the fields
are green
To see you once again
my love
I try to read
I go to work
I'm laughing
with my friends
But I can't stop
to keep myself
From thinking
oh no
I wonder how
I wonder why
I wonder where they
are the days we had
The songs we sang
together oh yeah
And oh my love
I'm holding on forever
Reaching for a love
that seems so far
So I say
a little prayer
And hope my dreams
will take me there
Where the skies
are blue
To see you once again
my love
Over seas from
coast to coast
To find the place
I love the most
Where the fields
are green
To see you once again
to hold you in my arms
To promise you
my love
To tell you
from the heart
You're all
I'm thinking of
I'm reaching
for a love that
Seems so far so so
I say a little prayer
And hope my dreams
will take me there
Where the skies
are blue
To see you once again
my love
Over seas from
coast to coast
To find the place
I love the most
Where the fields
are green
To see you once again
say a little prayer
Dreams will
take me there
Where the skies
are blue
To see you
once again
Over seas
from coast to coast
To find the place
I love the most
Where the fields
are green
To see you
once again my love-

I used to rule
the world
Seas would rise
when I gave the word
Now in the morning I
sleep alone
Sweep the streets
I used to own
I used to
roll the dice
Feel the fear in my
enemies eyes
Listen as the crowd
would sing
Now the old
king is dead
Long live
the king
One minute I
held the key
Next the walls
were closed on me
And I discovered that
my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt
and pillars of sand
I hear Jerusalem
bells a ringing
Roman cavalry choirs
are singing
Be my mirror my sword
my shield
My missionaries
in a foreign field
For some reason
I can't explain
Once you go
there was never
Never an
honest word
That was when I
ruled the world

It was the wicked
and wild win
Blew down the doors
to let me in
Shattered windows
and the sound of drums
People couldn't
believe what
I'd become
revolutionaries wait
For my head on
a silver plate
Just a puppet on
a lonely string
Ah who would ever
want to be king
I hear Jerusalem
bells a ringing
Roman cavalry choirs
are singing
Be my mirror my sword
and shield
My missionaries in
a foreign field
For some reason
I can't explain
I know Saint Peter
won't call my name
Never an
honest word
But that was when I
ruled the world

(Ooooh ooooh
ooooh ooooh ooooh)
I hear Jerusalem
bells a ringing
Roman cavalry choirs
are singing
Be my mirror my sword
and shield
My missionaries in
a foreign field
For some reason
I can't explain
I know Saint Peter
won't call my name
Never an
honest word
But that was when I
ruled the world

The falling leaves
drift by the window
The autumn leaves
of red and gold
I see your lips
the summer kisses
The sun-burned hands
I- - used to hold
Since- you went away
the days grow long
And soon I'll hear- -
old winter's song
But- I miss you
most of all my darling
When autumn leaves
start to fall.

Since- you went away
the days grow long
And soon I'll hear- -
old winter's song
But- I miss you
most of all my darling
When autumn leaves
start to fall.

Here comes a wave
meant to wash me away
A tide that is
taking me under
Swallowing sand left
with nothing to say
My voice drowned out
in the thunder
But
I won't cry
And I won't start
to crumble
Whenever
they try
To shut me
or cut me down
I won't
be silenced
You can't keep me
quiet
Won't tremble
when you try it
All I know is
I won't go speechless
'Cause
I'll breathe
When they try
to suffocate me
Don't you
underestimate me
'Cause I know that
I won't go speechless
Written in stone
every rule every word
Centuries old
and unbending
Stay
in your place
Better seen
and not heard
Well now that story is
ending
'Cause I I cannot
start to crumble
So come on
and try
Try to shut me
and cut me down
I won't
be silenced
You can't keep me
quiet
Won't tremble
when you try it
All I know is
I won't go
Speechless
speechless
Let the storm in
I cannot be broken
No I won't live
unspoken
'Cause I know that
I won't go speechless
Try to lock me
in this cage
I won't just
lay me down and die
I will take these
broken wings
And watch me burn
across the sky
Hear the echo
saying
I won't
be silenced
Though you wanna
see me tremble
When
you try it
All I know is
I won't go
Speechless
speechless
'Cause
I'll breathe
When they try
to suffocate me
Don't you
underestimate me
'Cause I know that
I won't go speechless
All I know is
I won't go
Speechless
speechless

Oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
oh oh
I can hear you
but I won't
Some look for trouble
while others don't
There's a thousand
reasons
I should go
about my day
And ignore
your whispers
Which I wish
would go away oh oh
You're
not a voice
You're just a ringing
in my ear
And if I heard you
which I don't
I'm spoken
for I fear
Everyone I've ever
loved is here
Within these walls
I'm sorry secret siren
But I'm blocking out
your calls
I've had
my adventure
I don't need
something new
I'm afraid of
what I'm risking
If I follow
you
Into the unknown
into the unknown
Into
the unknown
Oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh
What do you
want
'Cause you've been
keeping me awake
Are you here
to distract me
So I make
a big mistake
Or are you someone
out there
Who's a little bit
like me
Who knows
deep down
I'm not
where I'm meant to be
Every day's
a little harder
As I feel my power
grow
Don't you know
there's part of me
That longs
to go
Into the unknown
into the unknown
Into
the unknown
Oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh
Oh are you out there
do you know me
Can you feel me
can you show me
Oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Where are you going
don't leave me alone
How do I follow you
into the unknown

Same bed
but it feels
Just a little bit
bigger now
Our song
on the radio
But it don't
sound the same
When our friends
talk about you
All it does is
just tear me down
'Cause my heart breaks
a little
When I hear
your name
It all just sounds
like woo hu
Uhm too young too dumb
to realize
That I should've
bought you flowers
And held
your hand
Should've gave you
all my hours
When I had
the chance
Take you
to every party
'Cause all you wanted
to do was dance
Now
my baby's dancin'
But she's dancin'
with another man
My pride
my ego
My needs
and my selfish ways
Caused a good
strong woman like
You to walk
out my life
Now I never
never get to
Clean up the mess
I made oh
And it haunts me
every time
I close
my eyes
It all just sounds
like woo hu
Uhm too young too dumb
to realize
That I should've
bought you flowers
And held
your hand
Should've gave you
all my hours
When I had
the chance
Take you
to every party
'Cause all you wanted
to do was dance
Now
my baby's dancin'
But she's dancin'
with another man
Although it hurts
I'll be the first
To say that
I was wrong
Oh I know I'm probably
much too late
To try and apologize
for my mistakes
But I just want you
to know
I hope
he buys you flowers
I hope
he holds your hand
Give you all his hours
when he has the chance
Take you
to every party
'Cause I remember
how much
You loved
to dance
Do all the things
I should've done
When I was
your man
Do all the things
I should've done
When I was
your man

Here I stand
all alone
Have my mind
turned to stone
Have my heart
filled up with ice
To avoid
it's breakin' twice
Thanks to you
my dear old friend
But you can't help
this is the end
Of a tale
that wasn't right
I won't have no sleep
tonight
In my heart
in my soul
I really hate to pay
this toll
Should be strong
young and bold
But the only thing
I feel is pain
It's alright
we'll stay friends
Trustin'
in my confidence
And let's say
it's just alright
You won't sleep alone
tonight
In my heart
in my soul
I really hate to pay
this toll
Should be strong
young and bold
But the only thing
I feel is pain-

With my heart
with my soul
Some guys cry
you bought and sold
They've been strong
young and bold
And they say play
this song again
In my heart
in my soul
I really hate to pay
this toll
Should be strong
young and bold
But the only thing
I feel is pain-

I have often
told you stories
About the way
I lived the life
Of a drifter
waiting for the day
When I'd take
your hand
And sing you songs
then maybe
You would say
come lay with me
Love me
and I would
Surely stay
but I feel
I'm growing older
and the songs that
I have sung
echo in the distance
Like the sound
of a windmill
goin' 'round
I guess I'll always be
A soldier
of fortune

Many times
I've been a traveller
I looked for
something new
In days of old
when nights were cold
I wandered without you
but those days
I thougt my eyes
had seen you
Standing near
though
Blindness is confusing
it shows that
You're not here
now I feel
I'm growing older
and the songs that
I have sung
echo in the distance
Like the sound
of a windmill
Goin' 'round
I guess I'll always be
A soldier of fortune
I can hear the sound
Of a windmill
goin' 'round
I guess I'll always be
a soldier of fortune
I guess I'll always be
a soldier of fortune

Would you know my name
if I saw you in heaven
would you be the same
if I saw you in heaven
I must be strong
and I'll carry on
cause I know
I don't belong
here in heaven-

would you hold my hand
if I saw you in heaven
would you help me stand
if I saw you in heaven
I'll find my way
through night and day
cause I know
I just can't stay
here in heaven-

Time can bring
you down
time can bend
your knees
time can break
your heart
have you beg and plead
beg and plead-

beyond the door
there's peace I'm sure
and I know
there'll be no more
tears in heaven-

would you know my name
if I saw you in heaven
would you be the same
if I saw you in heaven
I must be strong
and I'll carry on
cause I know
I don't belong
here in heaven
cause I know
I don't belong
here in heaven-

Uhm uhm
uhm uh uhm uhm
Some people live
for the fortune
Some people live
just for the fame
Some people live
for the power yeah
Some people live
just to play the game
Some people think that
the physical things
Define
what's within
And I been
there before
But that
life's a bore
So full
of the superficial
Some people
want it all
But I don't want
nothing at all
If it ain't
you baby
If I ain't got
you baby
Some people want
diamond rings
Some just want
everything
But everything
means nothing
If I ain't got
you yeah
Some people search
for a fountain
That promises
forever young
Some people need
three dozen roses
And that's
the only way
To prove you love him
hand me the world
On a silver platter
and what
Good would it be
with no one to share
With no one who truly
cares for me
Some people
want it all
But I don't want
nothing at all
If it ain't
you baby
If I ain't got
you baby
Some people want
diamond rings
Some just want
everything
But everything
means nothing
If I ain't got
you you you
Some people
want it all
But I don't want
nothing at all
If it ain't
you baby
If I ain't got
you baby
Some people want
diamond rings
Some just want
everything
But everything
means nothing
If I ain't got
you yeah-
If I ain't got you
with me baby uh
Woo see nothing
in this
Whole wide world
don't mean a thing
If I ain't got you
with me baby-

When I am down
and oh my soul
So weary
when troubles come
And my heart
burdened be
Then I am still
and wait here
In the silence
until you come
And sit a while
with me
You raise me up
so I can stand
On mountains
you raise me up
To walk on
stormy seas
I am strong when I am
on your shoulders
You raise me up
to more than I can be

You raise me up
so I can stand
On mountains
you raise me up
To walk on stormy seas
I am strong when I am
On your shoulders
you raise me up
To more than I can be
you raise me up
So I can stand
on mountains
You raise me up
to walk on stormy seas
I am strong when I am
on your shoulders
You raise me up
to more than I can be
You raise me up
so I can stand
On mountains
you raise me up
To walk on
stormy seas
I am strong when I am
on your shoulders
You raise me up
to more than I can be
You raise me up
to more than I can be

I'm sitting here
in a boring room
It's just another
rainy Sunday afternoon
I'm wasting my time
I got nothing to do
I'm hanging around
I'm waiting for you
But nothing ever
happens and I wonder
I'm driving around
in my car
I'm driving too fast
I'm driving too far
I'd like to change
my point of view
I feel so lonely
I'm waiting for you
But nothing
ever happens
And I wonder
I wonder how
I wonder why
yesterday you told me
About the
blue blue sky
And all that
I can see
Is just
a yellow lemon tree
I'm turning my head
up and down
I'm turning turning
turning turning
Turning around
and all that I can see
Is just
another lemon tree
Sing da
da da da da dee da da
Da da da da dee da da
da da da da
I'm sitting here
I miss the power
I'd like to go out
taking a shower
But there's a heavy
cloud inside my head
I feel so tired
put myself into bed
Where nothing
ever happens
And I wonder
Isolation
Is not good for me
Isolation
I don't want to
sit on a lemon tree
I'm stepping around
in a desert of joy
Baby any how
I'll get another toy
And everything
will happen
And you'll wonder
I wonder how
I wonder why
yesterday you told me
About the
blue blue sky
And all that
I can see
Is just
a yellow lemon tree
I'm turning my head
up and down
I'm turning turning
turning turning
Turning around
and all that I can see
Is just
a yellow lemon tree
Yellow wonder wonder
I wonder how
I wonder why
yesterday you told me
About the
blue blue sky
And all that I can see
and all that I can see
And all that
I can see
Is just
a yellow lemon tree
