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

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

Nella fantasia io
vedo un mondo giusto
Li tutti vivono
in pace e in onesta
Io sogno d'anime
che sono sempre libere
Come le nuvole
che volano~
Pien' d'umanita~
in fondo all'anima~
Nella fantasia io
vedo un mondo chiaro
Li anche la notte
e meno oscura
Io sogno d'anime
che sono sempre libere
Come le nuvole
che volano~
Nella fantasia
esiste un vento caldo
Che soffia sulle citta
come amico
Io sogno d'anime
che sono sempre libere
Come le nuvole
che volano~
Pien' d'umanita~
in fondo all'anima~

Um-------
there's a hero--
If you look inside
your heart-
You don't have
to be afraid
Oh what you are-----
there's an answer---
If you reach
into your soul---
And the sorrow
that you know--
Will melt
away----------
And then a hero
comes along
With the strength
to carry on--
And you cast
your fears aside--
And you know
you can survive---
So when you feel
like hope is gone--
Look inside you and
be strong--
And you finally
see the truth--
That a hero
lies in you--
It's a long-- road--
when you face
The world alone--
no one reaches out
A hand
for you to hold------
You can find--- love--
if you search
Within yourself---
and the emptiness
You felt-- will
disappear------------
And then a hero
comes along
With the strength
to carry on---
And you cast
you fears aside--
And you know
you can survive---
So when you feel
like hope is gone--
Look inside you
and be strong----
And you'll finally
see the truth---
That a hero lies
in you--- oh-----
Lord knows-----
dreams are hard to-
Follow-- but don't let
anyone---
Tear them away-----
hold-- on-----
There will be
tomorrow-- in- time--
You'll find
the way-----
And then a hero
comes along--
With the strength
to carry on---
And you cast
your fears aside----
And you know
you can survive----
So when you feel
like hope is gone---
Look inside you and
be strong---
And you'll finally
see the truth----
That a hero lies
in you-----
That a hero lies
in---- you-
Um---- that a hero
lies in-- you---

It's nine o'clock
on a Saturday
The regular crowd
shuffles in
There's an old man
sitting next to me
Making love
to his tonic and gin

He says son can you
play me a memory
I'm not really sure
how it goes
But it's sad
and it's sweet
And I knew it
complete
When I wore
a younger man's
Clothes na-- na---
na- na-- na-
Sing us a song
you're the piano man
Sing us a song
tonight
Well we're all in
the mood for a melody
And you've got us
feeling alright-

Now John at the bar
is a friend of mine
He gets me my drinks
for free
And he's quick
with a joke
Or to light up
your smoke
But there's someplace
that he'd rather be
He says Bill I believe
this is killing me
As the smile ran away
from his face
Well I'm sure that
I could be
A movie star
if I could get out
Of this place na--
na--- na- na-- na-
Now Paul is
a real estate novelist
Who never had time
for a wife
And he's talking
with Davy
Who's still
in the navy
And probably
will be for life

And the waitress is
practicing politics
As the businessmen
slowly get stoned
Yes they're sharing
a drink
They call
loneliness
But it's better than
drinking alone

Sing us a song
you're the piano man
Sing us a song
tonight
Well we're all in
the mood for a melody
And you've got us
feeling alright-

It's a pretty good
crowd for a Saturday
And the manager
give me a smile
'Cause he knows
that it's me
They've been coming
to see
To forget about
life for a while
And the piano
it sounds
Like a carnival
and the microphone
Smells like a beer and
they sit at the bar
And put bread
in my jar
And say man what
are you doing here
Oh- na-- na---
na- na-- na-
Sing us a song
you're the piano man
Sing us a song
tonight
Well we're all in
the mood for a melody
And you've got us
feeling alright-

Hey Jude don't
make it bad
Take a sad song
and make it better
Remember to let
her into your heart
Then your car start
to make it better
Hey Jude don't
be afraid
You were made to
go out and get her
The minute you
let her under your
skin Then you begin
to make it better
And any time you feel
the pain
Hey Jude refrain
don't carry the world
upon your shoulders
For well you know that
it's a fool
who plays it cool
By making his world
a little the colder
Da da da da da da
da da da
Hey Jude don't let
me down
You have found her
now go and get her
Remember to let her
into your heart
Then you can start
to make it better
So let it out and
let it in
Hey Jude begin you're
waiting for someone
to perform with
And don't you know
that it's just you
Hey Jude You'll do
the movement you need
is on your shoulder
Da da da da da da

Hey Jude don't make it
bad Take a sad song
and make it better
Remember to let her
under your skin
Then you'll begin
to make it better
better better better

Hey Jude.

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

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 memorize the
note you sent
Go all the places
that we went
I seem to search
the whole day through
For anything
that's part of you
I kept a ribbon
from your hair
A breath of perfume
lingers there
It helps to cheer me
when I'm blue
Anything
that's part of you
Oh how it hurts
to miss you so
When I know
you don't love me
Anymore
to go on needing you
Knowing you
don't need me
No reason left
for me to live
What can I take
what can I give
When I'd give
all of someone new
For anything
that's part of you-

Oh how it hurts
to miss you so
When I know
you don't love me
Anymore
to go on needing you
Knowing you
don't need me
No reason left
for me to live
What can I take
what can I give
When I'd give
all of someone new
For anything
that's part of you-

Oh my love
my darling
I've hungered for
your touch along
Lonely time
And Time goes by
So slowly
and time can do
So much Are you
still mine
I need your love
I need your love
God speed your love
to me
Lonely rivers flow
to the sea to the sea
To the open arms
to the sea yeah
Lonely rivers sigh
wait for me
Wait for me
I'll be coming home
Wait for me
Oh my love my darling
I've hungered hungered
for your touch
A long
lonely time
And Time goes
by so slowly
And time can do
so much
Are you still mine
I need your love
I I need
your love
God speed your
love to me

When you're weary
feelin' small
When tears are in
your eyes
I'll dry them all -
I'm on your side
oh when times -
get rough - -
And friends just can't
be found
Like a bridge over
troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over
troubled water
I will lay me down.

When you're down
and out
when you're on
the street
When evening falls
so hard
I will comfort you -
I'll take your part
oh when darkness
comes - -
And pain is all around
Like a bridge over
troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over
Troubled
water I will
lay me down.

Sail on silver girl
sail on by
Your time has come
to shine
All your dreams are
on their way
See how they shine
oh if you need a
friend
I'm sailing right
behind
Like a bridge over
troubled water
I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over
troubled water
I will ease
your mind - - -.

If you search
for tenderness
It isn't hard
to find
You can have the love
you need to live
But if you look
for truthfulness
You might just as well
be blind
It always seems to be
so hard to give
Honesty
is such a lonely word
Everyone is
so untrue
Honesty
is hardly ever heard
And mostly
what I need from you
I can always
find someone
To say they
sympathize
If I wear my heart out
on my sleeve
But I don't want
some pretty face
To tell me
pretty lies
All I want is
someone to believe
Honesty
is such a lonely word
Everyone is
so untrue
Honesty
is hardly ever heard
And mostly
what I need from you
I can find a lover
I can find a friend
I can have security
until the bitter end
Anyone can comfort me
with promises again
I know (I know)
I know wo wo
When I'm deep
inside of me
Don't be too
concerned
I won't ask
for nothing
While
I'm gone
But when I want
sincerity
Tell me
where else can I turn
'Cause you're the one
that I depend upon
Honesty
is such a lonely word
Everyone is
so untrue
Honesty
is hardly ever heard
And mostly
what I need from you

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-

This romeo is
bleeding
But you can't see
his blood
It's nothing
but some feelings
That this old dog
kicked up
It's been raining
since you left me
Now I'm drowning
in the flood
You see I've always
been a fighter
But without you
I give up
Now I can't
sing a love song
Like the way
it's meant to be
Well I guess I'm not
that good anymore
But baby
that's just me
And I will love you
baby always
And I'll be there
forever and a day
Always
I'll be there
Till the stars
don't shine
Till the heavens
burst and the words
Don't rhyme
and I know when
I die you'll be
on my mind
And I'll love you
always
Now your pictures
that you left behind
Are just memories
of a different life
Some that made us
laugh some
That made us cry
one that made
You have to say
goodbye
What I'd give to run
my fingers through
Your hair
touch your lips
To hold you near
when you say
Your prayers try
to understand
I've made mistakes
I'm just a man
When he holds
you close
When he pulls
you near
When he says
the words you've been
Needing to hear
I'll wish
I was him cause those
words are mine
To say to you till the
end of time
That I will love you
baby always
And I'll be there
forever and a day
Always
if you told me
To cry for you
I could
If you told me
to die for you
I would
take a look at
My face
there's no price
I won't pay
to say
These words
to you

Well there ain't
no luck
In these loaded dice
but baby if you
Give me just
one more try
We can pack up
our old dreams
And our old lives
we'll find a place
Where the sun still
shines
And I will love you
baby always
And I'll be there
forever and a day
Always
I'll be there
Till the stars
don't shine
Till the heavens
burst and the words
Don't rhyme
and I know when
I die you'll be
on my mind
And I'll love you
always always

Look Dick look

See pretty Jane

Someday
I loved her
Since we were children
back in grammar school
Loved her then and

by the flowers
Where she'll lay
look Dick look
Look at Jane see Jane
laugh and play
Look Dick look
see pretty Jane
I'm gonna marry her
someday-

I fell in love with you
watching Casablanca
Back row at
the drive in show in
the flickering light
Popcorn and cokes
beneath the stars
became champagne
and caviar
Making love on a long
hot summer's night
I thought you fell in
love with me
watching Casablanca
Holding hands beneath
the paddle fans
in Rick's candle
lit cafe
Hiding in the shadows
from the spies
Moroccan moonlight
in your eyes
Making magic
at the movies
in my old chevrolet
Ooh a kiss is still
a kiss in Casablanca
But a kiss is not
a kiss without
your sigh
Please come back to me
in Casablanca
I love you
more and
more each day
as time goes by-

I guess there are many
broken hearts
in Casablanca
You know I've never
really been there so
I don't know
I guess our love story
will never be seen
on the big wide
silver screen
But it hurt just as bad
when I had to watch
Ooh a kiss is still
a kiss in Casablanca
But a kiss is not a
kiss without your sigh
Please come back to me
in Casablanca
I love you
more and more each day
as time goes by
Ooh a kiss is still a
kiss in Casablanca
But a kiss is not a
kiss without your sigh
please come back to me
in Casablanca
I love you
more and more each day
as time goes by
I love you
more and
more each day
as time goes by-

Look
if you had
One shot
one opportunity
To seize everything
you ever wanted
One moment
would you capture it
Or just let it slip yo
his palms are sweaty
Knees weak arms
are heavy
There's vomit
on his sweater
Alredy mom's spaghetti
he's nervous
But on the surface
he looks calm
And ready
to drop bombs
But he keeps on
forgettin
What he wrote down
the whole crowd
Goes so loud yo
he open his mouth
But the words
won't come out
He's chokin how
everybody's jokin now
The clock's run out
time's up over bloah
Snap back to reality
oh there goes gravity
Oh there goes rabbit
he choked
He's so mad
but he won't
Give up that is he
no he won't have it
He knows his whole
back city's ropes
I don't matter
he's dope
He knows that
but he's broke
He's so stacked
that he knows
When he goes back
to his mobile home
That's when it's back
to the lab again yo
This whole rap shit
he better go capture
This moment and
hope it don't pass him
You better
lose yourself
In the music
the moment
You own it you better
never let it go ho
You only get one shot
do not miss
Your chance to blow
this opportunity
Comes once
in a lifetime
You better
lose yourself
In the music
the moment
You own
it you better
Never let it go ho
you only get one shot
Do not miss
your chance to blow
This opportunity
comes once
In a lifetime
you better
The soul's escaping
through this hole
That it's gaping
this world is mine
For the taking
make me king
As we move toward
a new world order
A normal life is borin
but superstardom's
Close to post mortar
it only grows harder
Only grows hotter
he blows us all over
These hoes is
all on him
Coast to coast shows
he's know
As the globetrotter
lonely roads
God only knows
he's know father
From home
he's no father
He goes home
and barely knows
His own daughter
but hold your nose
Cuz here
goes the cold water
His hoes don't want
him no mo
He's cold product
they moved on
To the next schmoe
who flows
He nose dove and
sold nada
So the soap opera is
told and unfolds
I suppose
it's old potna
But the beat goes on
da da dum de dom
You better
lose yourself
In the music
the moment
You own it you better
never let it go ho
You only get one shot
do not miss
Your chance to blow
this opportunity
Comes once
in a lifetime
You better
lose yourself
In the music
the moment
You own it you better
never let it go ho
You only get one shot
do not miss
Your chance to blow
this opportunity comes
Once in a lifetime
you better
No more games
I'm a change
What you call rage
tear this mothafuckin
Roof off like
2 doas cased
I was playing
in the beginning
The mood all changed
I been chewed up
And spit out
and booed off stage
But I kept rhymin
and stepwritin
The next cypher
best believe
Somebody's payin
the pied piper
All the pain inside
amplified by the fact
That I can't get by
with my 9 to 5
And I can't provide
the right type of
Life for my family
cuz man
These goddam
food stamps
Don't buy diapers
and it's no movie
There's
no Mekhi phifer
This is my life
and these times
Are so hard
and it's getting
Even harder
trying to feed
And water my seed
plus see dishonor
Caught up between
bein a father
And a prima donna
baby mama drama's
Screamin on and
too much for me
To wanna stay
in one spot
Another jam or not
has gotten me
To the point
I'm like a snail
I've got to formulate
a plot fore
I end up in jail
or shot success is
My only mothafuckin
option failure's not
Mam I love you
but this trail has
Got to go
I cannot grow old
In salem's lot so
here I go is my shot
Feet fail me not
cuz maybe
The only opportunity
that I got
You better
lose yourself
In the music
the moment
You own it you better
never let it go ho
You only get one shot
do not miss
Your chance to blow
this opportunity
Comes once
in a lifetime
You better
lose yourself
In the music
the moment
You own it you better
never let it go ho
You only get one shot
do not miss
Your chance to blow
this opportunity
Come once
in a lifetime
You better
you can do anything
You set your mind
to man-

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.
