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

Oh woo wo 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
down down
And I just can't
believe my first love
Would be around
and I'm 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
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

Woo you can dance

Having the time
of your life woo
See that girl

Digging
the dancing queen
Friday night and
the lights are low
Looking out for
a place to go
Umm where they play
the right music
Getting
in the swing
You come to
look for a king
Anybody could be
that guy
Night is young and
the music's high
With a bit of
rock music
Everything

You're in the mood

And when you get

You are

Young and sweet

Dancing queen

The tambourine

I don't know you
but I want you
All the more

Words fall through me
always fool me
And I
can't react
And games that
never amount to
More than they're
meant will play
Themselves
out
Take this sinking boat
and point it home
We've still
got time
Raise your
hopeful
Voice you
have a choice
You've
make it now
Falling slowly
eyes that know me
And I can't
go back
And moods
that take me
And erase me
and I'm painted black
You have
suffered enough
And warred
with yourself
It's time
that you won
Take this sinking boat
and point it home
We've still
got time
Raise your hopeful
voice you
Had a choice
you've made it now
Falling slowly
sing your melody
I'll sing along
oh oh

When I find myself
in times of trouble
Mother Mary comes
to me
Speaking words
of wisdom
Let it be
And in my
hour of darkness
She is standing
right in front of me
Speaking words
of wisdom
Let it be
Let it be Let it be
Let it be-- Let it be
Whisper words
of wisdom
Let it be
And when the broken
hearted people
Living in the
world agree
There will
be an answer
Let it be
For though they
may be parted there is
still a chance
that they will see-
There will
be an answer
Let it be-
Let it be Let it be
Let it be-- Let it be
There will
be an answer
Let it be-
Let it be
Let it be
Let it be--
Let it be
Whisper words
of wisdom
Let it be--
Let it be
Let it be
Let it be--
Let it be
Whisper words
of wisdom
Let it be- -
And when the night
is cloudy
There is
still a light
that shines on me
Shine until tomorrow
Let it be-
I wake up
to the sound of music
Mother Mary
comes to me
Speaking words
of wisdom
Let it be--
Let it be Let it be-
Let it be- Let it be
There will
be an answer
Let it be--
Let it be
Let it be-
Let it be- Let it be
Whisper words
of wisdom
Let it be--.

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

Beautiful

Now that you know

Breaking

You will squeeze
the life out of me

I'm not in love
so don't forget it
It's just
a silly phase
I'm going through
and just because
I call you up
don't get me wrong
Don't think
you've got it made
I'm not in love no no
it's because
I like to see you
but then again
That doesn't mean

That much to me
so if I call you
Don't make a fuss
don't tell
Your friends
about the two of us
I'm not in love
no no it's because-

I keep your picture
upon the wall
It hides a nasty stain
that's lying there
So don't you ask me
to give it back
I know you know
it doesn't mean
That much to me
I'm not in love
No no it's because ooh
you'll wait
A long time for me
ooh you'll wait
A long time
ooh you'll wait
A long time for me
ooh you'll wait
A long time
I'm not in love
So don't forget it
it's just
A silly phase
I'm going through
And just because
I call you up
Don't get me wrong
don't think
You've got it made
I'm not in love
I'm not
in love-

I found a love
for me
Darling
just dive right in
And follow
my lead
Well I found a girl
beautiful and sweet
Oh I never knew
you were the someone
Waitin'
for me
'Cause we were
just kids
When we fell
in love
Not knowin'
what it was
I will not give you up
this time
Darling
just kiss me slow
Your heart is
all I own
And in your eyes
you're holdin' mine
Baby I'm dancin'
in the dark
With you
between my arms
Barefoot
on the grass
Listenin'
to our favourite song
When you said
you looked a mess
I whispered
underneath my breath
But you heard it
darling
You look perfect
tonight
Well
I found a woman
Stronger than anyone
I know
She shares my dreams
I hope that someday
I'll share
her home
I found a love
to carry
More than
just my secrets
To carry love to carry
children of our own
We are still kids
but we're so in love
Fightin'
against all odds
I know we'll
be alright this time
Darling
just hold my hand
Be my girl
I'll be your man
I see my future
in your eyes
Baby I'm dancin'
in the dark
With you
between my arms
Barefoot
on the grass
Listenin'
to our favourite song
When I saw you
in that dress
Lookin'
so beautiful
I don't deserve this
darling
You look perfect
tonight
Baby I'm dancin'
in the dark
With you
between my arms
Barefoot
on the grass
Listenin'
to our favourite song
I have faith in
what I see
Now I know I have met
an angel in person
And she looks perfect
I don't deserve this
You look perfect
tonight

Met you by surprise
I didn't realize
That my life would
change forever
Saw you standing there
I didn't know I cared
There was
something special
In the air
dreams are my reality
The only kind of
real fantasy
Illusions are
a common thing
I try to live
in dreams
It seems as
if it's meant to be
Dreams are
my reality
A different kind
of reality
I dream of loving
in the night
And loving
seems alright
Although
it's only fantasy-

If you do exist
honey don't resist
Show me a new way
of loving
Tell me that it's true
show me what to do
I feel
something special
About you
dreams are my reality
The only kind
of reality
Maybe my foolishness
has past
And maybe now at last
I'll see
How a real thing
can be
Dreams are
my reality
A wonderous world
where I like to be
I dream of holding you
all night
And holding you
seems right
Perhaps that's
my reality-

Met you by surprise
I didn't realize
That my life would
change forever
Tell me that it's true
feelings that are cue
I feel
something special
About you
dreams are my reality
A wonderous world
where I like to be
Illusions are
a common thing
I try to live
in dreams
Although
it's only fantasy
Dreams are
my reality
I like to dream of you
close to me
I dream of loving
in the night
And loving you
seems right
Perhaps that's
my reality-

On a dark
desert highway
cool wind in my hair
warm smell of colitas
rising up
through the air
Up ahead
in the distance
I saw a
suimmering light
My head grew heavy and
my sight grew dim
I had to stop
for the night
These she stood
in the doorway
I heard the
mission bell
He said And
I was thinking
to myself
this could be heaven
and this could be hell
Then she lit up
a candle and she
showed me the way
There were voices down
the corridor
I thought
I heard them say
Welcome to the
Hotel California
Such a lovely place
(such a lovely place)
such a lovely face
plenty of room at the
Hotel California
Any time of year
(any time of year)
you can find it here
Her mind is
Tiffany twisted
She got
the Mercedes Benz
She got a lot of
pretty pretty boys
that she calls friends
How they dance
in the courtyard
sweet summer sweet
Some dance to remember
some dance to forget
So I called up
the captain
Please bring me
my wine
He said
We haven't had that
spirit here since
nineteen sixty nine
and still those voices
are calling
from far away
wake you up
in the middle
of the night
just to here them say
Welcome to the
Hotel California
Such a lovely place
(such a lovely place)
such a lovely face
They living it up
at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise
(what a nice surprise)
bring your alibis
Mirrors on the ceiling
the pink champagne
on ice
and she said
We are all just
prisoners here
of our own device
And in the
master's chambers
they gathered
for the feast
They stab it with their
steely knives
but they just can't
kill the beast
Last thing I remember
I was running
for the door
I had to find
the passage back
to the place
I was before
Relax said
the night man
We are programmed
to receive
You can check out
any time
you like
but you can
never leave-

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-

For a while
there it was rough
But lately
I've been doin' better
Than the last
four cold
Decembers
I recall
And I see my family
every month
I found a girl
my parents love
She'll come and stay
the night
And I think
I might have it all
And I thank God
every day
For the girl
he sent my way
But I know
the things
He gives me
he can take away
And I hold you
every night
And that's a feelin'
I wanna get used to
But there's no man
as terrified
As the man who stands
to lose you
Oh I hope
I don't lose you
Uhm please stay
I want you I need you
Oh God
don't take
These beautiful things
that I've got
Please stay
I want you I need you
Oh God
don't take
These beautiful things
that I've got
Oh woo
please don't take
I found my mind
I'm feelin' sane
It's been
a while
But I'm findin'
my faith
If everything's good
and it's great
Why do I sit and wait
'til it's gone
Oh I'll tell ya
I know I've got enough
I've got peace
and I've got love
But I'm up
at night
Thinkin' I just might
lose it all
Please stay
I want you I need you
Oh God
don't take
These beautiful things
that I've got oh woo
Please stay
I want you I need you
Oh God
I need
These beautiful things
that I've got

I will not make
the same mistakes
That you did
I will not let myself
Cause my heart
so much misery
I will not break
the way you did
You fell so hard
I've learned
The hard way
to never let it
Get that far
because of you
I never stray too far
from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play
On the safe side
so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I find it
Hard to trust
not only me
But everyone around me
because of you
I am afraid
I lose my way
And it's not
too long
Before you point
it out
I cannot cry
because I know
That's weakness
in your eyes
I'm forced to fake
a smile a laugh
Everyday of my life
my heart can't
Possibly break
when it wasn't
Even whole
to start with
Because of you
I never stray
Too far
from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play
On the safe side
so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I find it
Hard to trust
not only me
But everyone around me
because of you
I am afraid
I watched you die
I heard you cry
every night
In your sleep
I was so young
You should have
known better
Than to lean on me
you never thought
Of anyone else
you just saw your pain
And now I cry
in the middle
Of the night
for the same
Damn thing
because of you
I never stray too far
from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play
On the safe side
so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I tried my hardest
Just to forget
everything
Because of you
I don't know how to
Let anyone else in
because of you
I'm ashamed of my life
because it's empty
Because of you
I am afraid
Because of you
because of you

We were both young
when I first saw you
I close
my eyes and the
Flashback starts
I'm standing there
On a balcony
in summer air
See the lights see the
party the ball gowns
See you make your way
through the crowd
And say hello
little did I know
That you were
Romeo
You were
throwing pebbles
And my daddy said
stay away from Juliet
And I was crying
on the staircase
Begging you please
don't go and I said
Romeo take me
somewhere
We can be alone
I'll be waiting
All that's left to
do is run
You'll be the
prince and
I'll be
the princess
It's a love story
baby just say yes
So I sneak out to
the garden to see you
We keep
quiet
Cause we're dead
if they knew
So close your eyes
escape this town
For a little while~
oh oh
Cause you were Romeo
I was a scarlet letter
And my daddy said
stay away from Juliet
But you were
everything to me I was
Begging you please
don't go and I said
Romeo take me
somewhere
We can be alone
I'll be waiting
All there's left to
do is run
You'll be the
prince and
I'll be
the princess
It's a love story
baby just say yes
Romeo save me they try
to tell me how to feel
This love is difficult
but it's real
Don't
be afraid we'll
Make it out
of this mess
It's a love story baby
just say yes oh oh oh

I got tired
of waiting
Wondering if you were
ever coming around
My faith in you was
fading
When I met you on the
outskirts of town
And I said
Romeo save me
I've been feeling
so alone
I keep waiting for you
but you never come is
This
in my head
I don't know
what to think he
Knelt to the
ground and
Pulled out
a ring and said
Marry me Juliet you'll
never have to be alone
I love you and that's
all I really know
I talked
to your dad go
Pick out
a white dress
It's a love story
baby just say yes
Oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh
Cause we were
both young
When I first
saw you

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

Yesterday
All my troubles
Seemed so far away
Now it looks as though
They're here to stay
Oh I believe in
Yesterday
Suddenly
I'm not half the man
I used to be
There's a shadow
Hanging over me
Oh Yesterday
Came suddenly
Why she
Had to go I don't know
She wouldn't say
I said
Something wrong now I
long for yesterday
Yesterday
love was such an easy
Game to play
Now I need a place to
Hide away
Oh I believe in
Yesterday Why she
Had to go I don't know
She wouldn't say
I said
Something wrong now I
long for yesterday
Yesterday
love was such an easy
Game to play
Now I need a place to
Hide away
Oh I believe in
Yesterday Mm mm
Mm mm mm mm mm.

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.
