Time can never mend
the careless whispers
Of a good friend
to the heart and mind
Ignorance is kind
there's no comfort
In the truth pain is
all you'll find
Should've known
better yeah-

Oh-- oh-
I feel so unsure
As I take your hand
and lead you
To the dance floor
as the music dies
Something
in your eyes
Calls to mind
the silver screen
And all it's said
good-bye
I'm never gonna
dance again
Guilty feet have
got no rhythm
Though it's easy
to pretend
I know your not a fool
should've known
Better than
to cheat a friend
And waste the chance
that I've been given
So I'm never
gonna dance again
The way I danced
with you-- oh-
Time can never mend
the careless whispers
Of a good friend
to the heart and mind
Ignorance is kind
there's no comfort
In the truth pain is
all you'll find
I'm never gonna
dance again
Guilty feet have
got no rhythm
Though it's easy
to pretend
I know your not a fool
should've known
Better than
to cheat a friend
And waste the chance
that I've been given
So I'm never gonna
dance again
The way I danced
with you oh--
Never without
your love-

Tonight the music
seems so loud
I wish that we could
lose this crowd
Maybe it's better
this way
We'd hurt each other
with the things
We'd want to say
we could have been
So good together
we could have lived
This dance forever
but no one's gonna
Dance with me
please stay
And I'm never gonna
dance again
Guilty feet
have got no rhythm
Though it's easy
to pretend
I know your not a fool
should've known
Better than
to cheat a friend
And waste the chance
that I've been given
So I'm never gonna
dance again
The way I danced
with you-- ah--
(Now that you're gone)
now that you're gone
(Now that you're gone)
what I did's
So wrong so wrong
that you had to
Leave me
alone-

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 used to think that
I wasn't fine enough
And I used
to think that
I wasn't
wild enough
But I won't
waste my time
Tryin to
figure out
Why you are
playin games
What's this all about
and I can't believe
Your hurting me
I met your girl
What a difference
what you seen in her
You ain't seen in me
but I guess it was all
Just make believe

Start kissin I found~

Fly me to the moon
and let me play
Among the stars
let me see what
Spring is like
on Jupiter and Mars
In other words
hold my hand
In other words
darling kiss me
Fill my heart
with song
And let me sing
forever more
You are all
I long for
All I worship
and adore
In other words
please be true
In other words
I love you-

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

A hot summer night
fell like a net
I've gotta find
my baby yet
I need you
to soothe my head
Turn my blue
heart to red
Doctor doctor
give me the news
I've got a bad case
of loving you
No pill's gonna
cure my ill
I've got a bad case
of loving you-
A pretty face don't
make no pretty heart
I learned that
buddy from the start
you thing I'm cute
a little bit shy
Momma I ain't
that kind of guy
Doctor doctor
give me the news
I've got a bad case
of loving you
No pill's gonna
cure my ill
I've got a bad case
of loving you-

I know you like it
you like it on top
Tell me momma are
you gonna stop-
You had me down
2 1 to zip
smile of judas
on your lip
shake my fist
knock on wood
I've got it bad
and I've got it good
Doctor doctor
give me the news
I've got a bad case
of loving you
No pill's gonna
cure my ill
I've got a bad case
of loving 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
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

Digging

Looking out for

Getting

With a bit of

Everything

The tambourine

Oh when I get old
I'll be looking back
Wishing it could
last forever
Oh yesterday
seem so far away
Long dress no shoes
summer nights
Golden and blue
it feels just like
We're stuck
I side a picture frame
These memories
never fade away oh
Whisper to me
we got the world
Right at our feet
and I just wanna sit
Right here
and look at you
That's probably
all I ever do
Oh when I get old
I'll be looking back
Wishing it could
last forever
Oh yesterday
seem so far away
Where did it go
all of the nights
All the time
we spent together
Oh yesterday
seem so far away
Wake up
and smile
'Cause
you're beautiful
Those hazel eyes
when I get old
That's all I wanna
think about
I probably shouldn't
say this out loud
High hopes big dreams
and a little scared
Way too naive
thinking you always
Be mine and never
leave my side
At least
these memories
Never
say goodbye
Oh when I get old
I'll be looking back
Wishing it could
last forever
Oh yesterday
seem so far away
Where did it go
all of the nights
All the time
we spent together
Oh yesterday
seem so far away
Someday I'm running
out of time
I'll see your picture
in my mind
I'll keep our love
frozen in time
Oh when I get old
I'll be looking back
Wishing it could
last forever
Oh yesterday
seem so far away
Where did it go
all of the nights
All the time
we spent together
Oh yesterday
seem so far away

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

Time it needs time
To win back your
love again
I will be there
I will be there
Love only love

your love someday
I will be there
I will be there-

I'll fight babe
I'll fight
To win back your
love again
I will be there
I will be there
Love only love
Can break down
the walls someday
I will be there
I will be there
If we'd go again
All the way
from the start
I would try to change
The thing that killed
our love
your pride has
built a wall
So strong That
I can't get through
Is there really
no chance
To start once again
I'm loving you-

Try babe try
To trust in my
love again
I will be there
I will be there
Love our love
Just shouldn't
be throw
away I will be there

If we'd go again
All the way
from the start
I would try to change
The thing that killed
our love
your pride has
built a wall
So strong That
I can't get through
Is there really
no chance
To start once again
If we'd go again
All the way
from the start
I would try to change
The things that killed
our love
Yes I've hurt you pride
and I know what
you've been through
You should give me
a chance
This can't be the end
I'm still loving you--
I'm still loving you--
I'm still loving you--
I need your love
I'm still loving you---

I'm still loving you--
I need your love
I'm still loving you--
I'm still loving you---

Ocean apart
day after day
And I slowly
go insane
I hear your voice
on the line
But it doesn't
stop the pain
If I see you next
to never
How can we say
forever
wherever you go
whatever you do
I will be right
here waiting for you
whatever it takes
Or how my heart breaks
I will be right here
waiting for you
I took for granted
all the times
that I though would
last somehow
I hear the laughter
I taste the tears
But I can't get near
you now
Oh can't you see
it baby
You've got me going
crazy
Wherever you go
whatever you do
I will be right here
waiting for you
whatever it takes
Or how my heart breaks
I will be right here
waiting for you
I wonder how
we can survive
This romance
But in the end
if I'll with you
I'll take the chance-

Oh can't you see
it baby
You've got me going
crazy
Wherever you go
whatever you do
I will be right here
waiting for you
whatever it takes
Or how my heart breaks
I will be right here
waiting for you
waiting
for you-

Such a feelings
coming over me
there is
wonder in most
everything I see
not a cloud in the sky
got the sun in my eyes
and I
won't be surprised
if it's a dream
everything
I want the world to be
is now coming
true especially
for me
and the reason
is clear
it's because
you are here
you're the nearest
thing to
heaven that I've seem
I'm on the
top of the world
looking
down on creation
and the only
explanation I can find
is the love
that I've found ever
since you've
been around
your loves
put me at the
top of the
world-

Something in the wind
has learned my name
and it's telling me
that things are not
the same in the leaves
on the trees
and the touch of
the breeze
there's a pleasing
sence of happiness
for me
There is only
one wish on my mind
when this day is
through I hope
that I will find
that tomorrow
will be just the
same for you and me
all I need will be
mine if you are here
I'm on the
top of the world
looking
down on creation
and the only
explanation I can find
is the love
that l've found ever
since you're been
around your loves
put me at the
top of the world
I'm on the
top of the world
looking
down on creation
and the only
explanation I can find
is the love
that I've found ever
since you've been
around your loves
put me at the
top of the
world-

Everybody needs
a little time away
I heard her say
from each other
Even lovers
need a holiday
Far away from
each other
Hold me now
it's hard for me to say
I'm sorry
I just want you to stay
after all that
we've been through
I will make it up
to you
I promise to
And after all
that's been said
and done
You're just
the part of me
I can't let go
woo----
Couldn't stand to be
kept away
Just for the day
from your body
wouldn't wanna
be swept away
Far away from the one
that I love
Hold me now
it's hard for me to say
I'm sorry
I just want you to know
Hold me now
I really wanna tell you
I'm sorry
I could never
let you go
after all that
we've been through
I will make it up
to you
I promise to
And after all
that's been said
and done
You're just the
part of me
I can't let go
After all that
we've been through
I will make it up
to you
I promise to-

Now I'm gonna be
the lucky one-

Perhaps love is like
a resting place
A shelter
from the storm
It exists to give you
comfort it is
There to keep you Warm
And in those times
of trouble when
you are most alone
The memory of love will
bring you home
Perhaps love
is like a window
Perhaps an open door
It invites you
to come closer
It Wants
to show you more
And even if you
lose yourself
and don't know
what to do
The memory of love will
see you thru
Oh love to some is
like a cloud
To some
as strong as steel
For some a way
of living For
some a way to feel
And some say love
is holding on
And some say
letting go
And some say love
is ev'rything
some say they
don't know
perhaps love
is like the ocean
Full of conflict
full of pain
Like a fire
When it's cold outside
Thunder when
it rains If I should
live forever
And all my dreams
come true
My memories
of love will
be of you.

And some say love is
holding on
And some say
letting go
And some say love
is ev'rything
some say they
don't know
Perhaps love
is like the ocean
Full of conflict
full of pain
Like a fire
When it's cold outside
Thunder when
it rains If I should
live forever
And all my dreams
come true
My memories
of love will be of you.

Won't even

when she cries
In the night
Tommy whispers:
Baby it's okay someday
we've got to
Hold on to
what we've got
'Cause it doesn't
make a difference
If we make it or not
we've got each other
And that's a lot
for love
We'll give it
a shot
Oh We're half
way there
Oh Livin' on a prayer
take my hand and
We'll make it
I swear
Oh Livin' on a prayer
livin' on a prayer

We've got to hold on
ready or not
You live for the fight
when it's all that
You've got
oh We're half
Way there
oh Livin' on a prayer
Take my hand and
we'll make it I swear
Oh Livin' on a prayer
oh We're half
Way there
oh Livin' on a prayer
Take my hand and
we'll make it I swear
Oh Livin' on
a prayer

I don't like
to sleep alone
Stay with me
don't go
Talk with me
for just a while
So much of you
to get to know
Reaching out
touching you
Leaving all the
worries
All behind
loving you
The way I do
my mouth on yours
And yours on mine
marry me
Let me live with you
nothing's wrong
When love is right
like a man say
In his song
help me make it
Through the night
loneliness
Can get you down
when you get
To thinking
no one cares
Lean on me
and I'll lean on you
Together we will
see it through
Oh I don't like
to sleep alone
Sad to think
some folks do
No I don't like
to sleep alone
No one does do you
I don't like
To sleep alone
no one does do you-

I Can't Stop
Loving You
I've made up my mind
To live in memory
of old lonesome time
I can't stop
wanting you
I'm go
that
it's useless to say
So I'll just live
my life
in dreams of
yesterday
A Those happy hours
that we that we once
knew I
know that
Though so long ago
the keep on
the keep on
make me blue
What can I
They say
that time
It has the heals
my broken
heart
But time has
stood still
since we've been
a part
I Can't
Stop
I Can't Stop
Loving You
I sad that
I made up
I've made up my mind
To live in memory
of old
lonesome time
yes and
I'm can't and
I'm can't and
I'm can't
I can't stop
walk to you
I sad that
It's useless to say
so I'll
just live my life
in dreams of
