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.

I should've known
I'd leave alone
Just goes to show
that the blood
You bleed is
just the blood you owe
We were a pair
but I saw you there
Too much to bear
you were my life
But life is far away
from fair
Was I stupid
to love you
Was I reckless
to help
Was it obvious
to everybody else
That I'd fallen
for a lie
You were never
on my side
Fool me once
fool me twice
Are you death
or paradise
Now you'll never
see me cry
There's just
no time to die
I let it
burn
You're no longer
my concern
Faces
from my past return
Another lesson yet
to learn
That I'd fallen
for a lie
You were never
on my side
Fool me once
fool me twice
Are you death
or paradise
Now you'll never
see me cry
There's just
no time to die
No time to die
no time to die
Fool me once
fool me twice
Are you death
or paradise
Now you'll never
see me cry
There's just
no time to die

Meet you downstairs
in the bar and hurt
Your rolled up sleeves
in your skull T-shirt
You say why did you do
with him today
And sniffed me out
like I was Tanqueray
'Cause you're my fella
my guy
Hand me
your Stella and fly
By the time
I'm out the door
You tear men down
like Roger Moore
I cheated myself
like I knew I would
I told you
I was trouble
You know
that I'm no good
Upstairs in bed
with my ex-boy
He's in the place
but I can't get joy
Thinking on you
in the final throes
This is when my
buzzer goes
Run out to meet you
chips and pitta
You say
when we're married
'Cause you're not
bitter
There'll be none of
him no more
I cried for you
on the kitchen floor
I cheated myself
like I knew I would
I told you
I was trouble
You know
that I'm no good
Yo aiyo I knew
you was trouble
When I first
laid eyes on you
Temperature's
so hot
The heat just
rise with you
Let me ride
with you
Talk about your
mistakes
You cheated
yourself
But these are
the breaks
And it never be the
same again
'Cause of old boy
but oh boy
Together we make
so much joy
In the sands and
oh what a wet wee-wee
But you
played me
So I had to roll up
my sleeves and
Hunt you down holding
the next man's stacks
Now you
sorry
Tryin' bring that
old thing back and
Act like we can
rekindle that flame
It's a
shame
How you can't get me
off the brain
He that lame you love
how I bring the pain
Got the
rug burns
Stinging and
you saying my name
Say my name
that's right
I'm high post
get the champagne
Love word up
we gon' toast
I cheated myself
like I knew I would
I told you
I was trouble
You know
that I'm no good
I cheated myself
like I knew I would
I told you
I was trouble
Yeah you know
that I'm no good

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-

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-

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

I see the
crystal raindrops fall
And the
beauty of it all
Is when the sun
comes shining through
To make those
rainbows in my mind
When I think
of you some time
And I want to spend
some time with you
Just the two of us
we can make it
If we try
just the two of us
(Just the two of us)
just the two of us
Building castles
in the sky
Just the two of us
you and I
We look for love
no time for tears
Wasted waters's
all that is
And it don't make no
flowers grow
Good things might
come to those
Who wait not to those
who wait to late
We got to go
for all we know
Just the two of us
we can make it
If we try
just the two of us
(Just the two of us)
just the two of us
Building castles
in the sky
Just the two of us
you and I

I hear the crystal
raindrops fall
On the window
down the hall
And it becomes
the morning dew
Darling, when the
morning comes
And I see
the morning sun
I want to be
the one with you
Just the two of us
we can make it
If we try
just the two of us
(Just the two of us)
just the two of us
Building castles
in the sky
Just the two of us
you and I
(Just the two of us)
just the two of us
(We can make it
just the two of us)
(Just the two of us)
just the two of us
(we can make it
just the two of us)
(Just the two of us
we can make it)
(Just the two of us
just the two of us)
(We can make it
just the two of us)
(Just the two of us
we can make it)
(Just the two of us
just the two of us)
(We can make it
just the two of us)
(Just the
two of us)

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-

When I was
a young boy
My father took me
into the city
To see a marching band
he said
"Son when you grow up
would you be
The savior
of the broken
The beaten
and the damned?"
He said
"will you defeat them
Your demons and
all the non-believers
The plans
that they have made?
Because one day
I'll leave you
A phantom to lead you
in the summer
To join
the black parade"
When I was
a young boy

Sometimes I get
the feeling
She's watching over me
and other times
I feel
like I should go
And through it
all the rise and fall
The bodies
in the streets
And when you're gone
we want you
All to know
we'll carry on
We'll carry on
and though you're dead
And gone believe me
your memory will
Carry on
we'll carry on
And in my heart
I can't contain it
The anthem won't
explain it
A world that sends
you reeling
From decimated dreams
your misery
And hate will
kill us all
So paint it black
and take it back
Let's shout it loud
and clear
Defiant
to the end
We hear the call
to carry on
We'll carry on
and though you're dead
And gone believe me
your memory will
Carry on
we'll carry on
And though
you're broken
And defeated you're
weary widow marches
On and on we carry
through the fears
Oh oh oh
disappointed
Faces of
your peers
Oh oh oh oh
take a look at me
'Cause I could not
care at all
Do or die
you'll never make me
Because the world will
never take my heart
Go and try
you'll never break me
We want it all we
wanna play this part
I won't explain
or say I'm sorry
I'm unashamed
I'm gonna show my scar
Give a cheer
for all the broken
Listen here because
it's who we are
I'm just a man
I'm not a hero
Just a boy who had
to sing his song
I'm just a man
I'm not a hero
I! don't! care!
we'll carry on
We'll carry on
and though you're dead
And gone believe me
your memory will
Carry on
we'll carry on
And though
you're broken
And defeated you're
weary widow marches on
We'll carry on
we'll carry on
We'll carry on
we'll carry
We'll
carry on

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

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.

So many nights
I'd sit by my window
waiting for someone
to sing me his song
So many dreams
I kept deep inside me
alone in the dark
but now
you've come along
and you
light up my life
you give me hope
to carry on
You light up my days
and fill my nights
with song
Rollin' at sea
adrift on the waters
could it be fin'lly
I'm turning
for home fin'lly
a chance to say "hey!
I love you
never again
to be all alone
and you light up
my life
You give me hope
to carry on
You light up my days
and fill my nights
with song
and you light up
my life
You give me hope
to carry on
You light up my days
and fill my nights
with song
It can't be wrong
when it feels so
right cause you
you light up my
life.

You know
I want you
It's not a secret
I try to hide
I know
you want me
So don't keep saying
our hands are tied
You claim
it's not in the cards
But fate is pulling
you miles away
And out of reach
from me
But you're here
in my heart
So who can stop me
if I decide
That you're
my destiny
What if we
rewrite the stars
Say you were
made to be mine
Nothing could
keep us apart
You'd be the one
I was meant to find
It's up to you
and it's up to me
No one can say
what we get to be
So why don't we
rewrite the stars
Maybe the world
could be ours tonight
You think
it's easy
You think I don't want
to run to you
But there are
mountains
And there are
doors
That we can't
walk through
I know
you're wondering why
Because
we're able to be
Just you and me
within these walls
But when we go
outside
You're gonna wake up
and see that
It was hopeless
after all
No one can
rewrite the stars
How can you say
you'll be mine
Everything
keeps us apart
And I'm not the one
you were meant to find
It's not up to you
it's not up to me
When everyone tells us
what we can be
How can we
rewrite the stars
Say that the world
can be ours tonight
All I want is to fly
with you
All I want is to fall
with you
So just give me
all of you
It feels impossible
it's not impossible
Is it impossible
say that it's possible
How do we
rewrite the stars
Say you were
made to be mine
Nothing can
keep us apart
'Cause you are the one
I was meant to find
It's up to you
and it's up to me
No one can say
what we get to be
Why don't we
rewrite the stars
Changing the world
to be ours
You know
I want you
It's not a secret
I try to hide
But I can't
have you
We're bound to break
and my hands are tied

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

It's 12:45
on a Tuesday
I don't really care
what you say
I'm just getting
off my face tonight
'Cause
I'm just
Tryna live
till the weekend
And
I don't know
How I'm supposed
to breathe when
Everything you say is
playing on my mind
You don't know
where I've been
And you don't know
what I'm drinking
I need a moment
to think
About
nothing at all
Oh baby
you gotta stop
I see
that you're calling
I told you that
I ain't picking up
I know that
you wanna start
'Cause we got
our problems
I love you but I just
need tonight off
It's getting
pretty deep in the AM
And I should go home
but I'm staying
I'll be
sleeping
On the cold floor
tonight oh
I hope
you'll understand
In the
morning
That this is
just my problem
That
I'm solving
Yeah I got a lot
of stuff on my mind
I don't know
where I've been
And what the hell
am I drinking
And I can't help
but to think
Yeah
it's all my fault
Oh baby
you gotta stop
I see
that you're calling
I told you that
I ain't picking up
I know
that you wanna start
'Cause we got
our problems
I love you but I just
need tonight off

'Cause we got
our problems

Tell me somethin'
girl
Are you happy
in this modern world
Or do you
need more
Is there
somethin' else
You're
searchin' for
I'm falling
in all the good times
I find myself
longin' for change
And in the bad times
I fear myself
Tell me something
boy
Aren't you
tired
Tryin' to fill
that void
Or do you
need more
Ain't it hard
keeping it so hardcore
I'm falling
in all the good times
I find myself
longing for change
And in the bad times
I fear myself
I'm off the deep end
watch as I dive in
I'll never meet
the ground
Crash through
the surface
Where
they can't hurt us
We're far from
the shallow now
In the shallow
shallow
In the shallow
shallow
In the shallow
shallow
We're far from
the shallow now

I'm off the deep end
watch as I dive in
I'll never meet
the ground
Crash through
the surface
Where
they can't hurt us
We're far from
the shallow now
In the shallow
shallow
In the shallow
shallow
In the shallow
shallow
We're far from
the shallow now

Sometimes
love will bloom
In the spring time
then my flowers
In summer
it will grow
Then fade away
in the winter
When the cold wind
begins to blow
But when it's
evergreen evergreen
It will last
through the summer
And winter too
when love is evergreen
Evergreen
like my love for you
So hold my hand
and tell me
You'll be mine
through laughter
And through tears
we'll let
The whole world see
our love
Will be evergreen
through all the years
But when it's
evergreen evergreen
It will last
through the summer
And winter too
when love is evergreen
Evergreen
like my love for you

Before the dawn
I hear you whisper
in Your sleep don't let
the morning take him
outside the birds
begin to call
as if to summon
up my leaving
It's been a long time
since I found someone
since I found someone
who would stay
I waited too long
now you leaving
oh please don't take
it all the way-

It's been a long time
since I found someone
since I found someone
who would stay
I waited too long
now you leaving
oh please don't take
it all the way
Before the dawn
I hear you whisper
in your sleep don't let
the morning take me-

I could stay awake
just to hear
You breathing
watch you smile
While you are sleeping
while you're far away
And dreaming
I could spend my life
In this
sweet surrender
I could stay
lost in this moment
Forever
well every moment
Spent with you
is a moment I treasure
I don't wanna close
my eyes
I don't wanna
fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you
babe
And I don't wanna
miss a thing
'Cause even
when I dream of you
The sweetest dream
would never do
I'd still miss you
babe
And I don't wanna
miss a thing
Lying close to you
feeling
Your heart beating
and I'm wondering
What you're dreaming
wondering if it's me
You're seeing
then I kiss your eyes
And thank God
we're together
And I just wanna stay
with you
In this moment forever
forever and ever
I don't wanna close
my eyes
I don't wanna
fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you
babe
And I don't wanna
miss a thing
'Cause even
when I dream of you
The sweetest dream
would never do
I'd still miss you
babe
And I don't wanna
miss a thing
And I don't wanna
miss one smile
And I don't wanna
miss one kiss
Well I just wanna
be with you
Right here with you
just like this
I just wanna
hold you close
Feel your heart
so close to mine
And just stay here
in this moment
For all the rest
of time
Yeah yeah yeah
yeah yeah
I don't wanna
close my eyes
I don't wanna
fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you
babe
And I don't wanna
miss a thing
'Cause even
when I dream of you
The sweetest dream
would never do
I'd still miss you
babe
And I don't wanna
miss you babe
I don't wanna
close my eyes
I don't wanna
fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you
babe
And I don't wanna
miss a thing
'Cause even
when I dream of you
The sweetest dream
would never do
I'd still miss you
babe
And I don't wanna
miss a thing
I don't wanna
close my eyes
I don't wanna
fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you
babe
And I don't wanna
miss a thing-
