I don't
wanna talk
About the things
we've gone through
Though it's
hurting me
Now it's history
I've played
all my cards
And that's
what you've
done too
Nothing more to say
No more ace to play
The winner
takes it all
The loser
standing small
Beside the victory
That's her destiny
I was in your arms
Thinking
I blonged there
I figured it
made sense
Building me a fence
Building me
a home Thinking
I'd be strong there
But I was a fool
Playing by
the rules
The gods may
throw a dice
Their minds
as cold as ice
And someone
way down here
Loses someone dear
The winner
takes it all
The loser has to fall
It's simple and
it's plain
Why should I complain
But tell me does
she kiss like
I used to kiss you
Does it feel
the same
When she calls
your name
Somewhere
deep inside
You must know
I miss you
But what can I say
Rules must be obeyed
The judges
will decide
The likes
of me abide
Spectators of
the show
Always staying low
The game in on again
A lover or
a friend
A big thing
or a small
The winner
takes it all
I don't wanna talk
If it makes you
feel sad
And I understand
You've come
to shake my hand
I apologize If it
makes you feel I bad
Seeing me so tense
No self-confidence
The winner
takes it all
The winner
takes it all

You just walk in
I make you smile
It's cool but
you don't even know me
You take an inch
I run a mile
Can't win you're
always right behind me
And we know
that you could go
And find some other
take or leave it
Or just don't
even bother
Caught in a craze
it's just a faze
Or will this be
around forever
Don't you know
it's going too fast
Racing so hard
you know it won't last
Don't you know
why can't you see
Slow it down
read the sign
So you know just
where you are going
Stop right now
thank you very much
I need somebody
with the human touch
Hey you always
on the run
Gotta slow it down
baby gotta
Have some fun
do do do do
Do do do do do do do
always be together
Ba da ba ba
ba da ba ba ba da ba
Stay that way forever
and we know
That you could go
and find some other
Take or leave it
cause we've always
Got each other
you know who you are
And yes you're
gonna breakdown
You're crossed
the line
So you're gonna
have to turn around
Don't you know
it's going too fast
Racing so hard
you know it won't last
Don't you know
why can't you see
Slow it down
read the sign
So you know just
where you are going
Stop right now
thank you very much
I need somebody
with the human touch
Hey you always
on the run
Gotta slow it down
baby
Gotta have
some fun
Gotta keep it down
honey
Lay your back
on the line
Cause I don't care
about the money
Don't be wasting
my time
You need less speed
get off my case
You gotta
slow it down
Baby just get
out of my face
Stop right now
thank you very much
I need somebody
with the human touch
Hey you always
on the run
Gotta slow it down
baby gotta
Have some fun
stop right now
Thank you very much
I need somebody
With the human touch
hey you always
On the run
gotta slow it down
Baby

Stop right now
thank you very much
I need somebody
with the human touch
Hey you always
on the run
Gotta slow it down

Summer has
come and passed
The innocent
can never last
Wake me up
when September ends
Like my father's
come to pass
Seven years
has gone so fast
Wake me up
when September ends
Here comes
the rain again
Falling
from the stars
Drenched
in my pain again
Becoming who we are
as my memory rests
But never forgets
what I lost
Wake me up
when September ends

Summer has
come and passed
The innocent
can never last
Wake me up
when September ends
Ring out the
bells again
Like we did
when spring began
Wake me up
when September ends
Here comes
the rain again
Falling
from the stars
Drenched
in my pain again
Becoming who we are
as my memory rest
But never forgets
what I lost
Wake me up
when September ends

Summer has
come and passed
The innocent
can never last
Wake me up
when September ends
Like my father's
come to pass
Twenty years
has gone so fast
Wake me up
when September ends
Wake me up
when September ends
Wake me up
when September ends

Gotta change my
answering machine
Now that I'm alone
cuz right now
It says that we
can't come
To the phone
and I know it
Makes no sense
cuz you walked
Out the door
but it's the only way
I hear your
voice anymore
(It's ridiculous)
it's been months
And for some reason
I just
(Can't get over us)
and I'm stronger
Than this
(enough is enough)
No more walkin round
with my head down
I'm so over being blue
cryin over you
And I'm so
sick of love songs
So tired of tears
so done with wishing
You were still here
said I'm so
Sick of love songs
so sad and slow
So why can't I
turn off the radio
Gotta fix
that calendar I have
That's marked
July 15th
Because since
there's no more you
There's no more
anniversary
I'm so fed up with
my thoughts of you
And your memory
and how every song
Reminds me
of what used to be
That's the reason
I'm so sick of
Love songs
so tired of tears
So done with wishing
you were still here
Said I'm so
sick of love songs
So sad and slow
so why can't I
Turn off the radio
(leave me alone)
Leave me alone
(stupid love songs)
Don't make me
think about her smile
Or having
my first child
I'm letting go
Turning off the radio
Cuz I'm so
sick of love songs
So tired of tears
so done with wishing
She was still here
said I'm so
Sick of love songs
so sad and slow
Why can't I
turn off the radio
When I'm so
sick of love songs
So tired of tears
so done with wishing
She was still here
said I'm so
Sick of love songs
so sad and slow
Why can't I
turn off the radio
I'm so sick of
love songs
So tired of tears
so done with wishing
You were still here
said I'm so
Sick of love songs
so sad and slow
So why can't I
turn off the radio
Why can't I
turn off the radio

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

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

Baby baby
there will
Always be space
for you and me
Right
where you left it
And just maybe
enough time will pass
We'll look back
and laugh
Just
don't forget it
And maybe I'm wrong
for writing this song
Losing my head
over you
And
I'll be here
'Cause we both know
how it goes
I don't want things
to change
I pray they stay
the same always
And
I don't care
If you're
with somebody else
I'll give you
time and space
Just know
I'm not a phase
I'm always
ways ways
Always
ways ways
I'm always
ways ways
Pretty lady
used to walk with me
Down Bloor Street
oh what a time
And I still remember
the fussin'
The fightin'
the fxxxxx' the lyin'
So fine
you'll always be mine
And maybe I'm wrong
(hey babe you could)
For writing this song
(write me a song)
Losing my head
over you
And
I'll be here
'Cause we both know
how it goes
I don't want things
to change
I pray they stay
the same always
And
I don't care
If you're
with somebody else
I'll give you
time and space
Just know
I'm not a phase
I'm always
ways ways
Always
ways ways
I'm always
ways ways
(Always)
count on it sure
As the stars
in the sky
(Always)
you can count on it
Sure as the sun
will rise
(Always)
my love
For you will goin'
nowhere
(Always)
I will be here

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

How many special
people change?
How many lives are
living strange?
Where were you while
we were getting high?
Slowly walking down
the hall
Faster than
a cannonball
Where were you while
we were getting high?
Someday you will
find me
Caught beneath
the landslide
In a champagne
supernova in the sky
Someday you will
find me
Caught beneath
the landslide
In a champagne
supernova
A champagne supernova
in the sky
Wake up the dawn
and ask her why
A dreamer dreams
she never dies
Wipe that tear away
now from your eye
Slowly walking down
the hall
Faster than
a cannonball
Where were you while
we were getting high?
Someday you will
find me
Caught beneath
the landslide
In a champagne
supernova in the sky
Someday you will
find me
Caught beneath
the landslide
In a champagne
supernova
A champagne
supernova
'Cause people believe
that they're
Gonna get away
for the summer
But you and I
we live and die
The world's still
spinning round
We don't know why
why why why why

Sunday morning

I think I'll take
a walk in the park
Hey hey hey

And when I see her

Said that you

I am sailing
I am sailing
home again
'cross the sea
I am sailing
stormy waters
To be near you
to be free
I am flying
I am flying
like a bird
'cross the sky
I am flying
passing high clouds
To be with you
to be free
Can you hear me
Can you hear me
Through the dark night
far away
I am dying
forever trying
To be with you
Who can say
Can you hear me
Can you hear me
Through the dark night
far away
I am dying
Forever trying
To be with you
who can say-

We are sailing
We are sailing
Home again
'cross the sea
We are sailing
Stormy waters
To be near you
to be free
Oh Lord
to be near you
To be free
Oh Lord
to be near you
To be free
Oh Lord
to be near you
to be free
Oh Lord-

I took my troubles
down to Madame Ruth
you know
that gypsy
with the gold-capped
tooth
she's got a pad
down on
Thirty-Fourth
and vine
sellin' little
bottles of
love potion
number nine
I told her that I was
a flop with chics
I've been this way
since 1956
she looked
at my palm
and she made
a magic sign
she said
what you need is
love potion
number nine
she bent down
and turned around
and gave me
a wink
she said
I'm gonna make it up
right here
in the sink
It smelled like
turpentine
it looked
like Indian ink
I held my nose
I close my eyes
I took a drink
I didn't know
if it was day
or night
I started kissin'
everything in sight
but when I kissed
a cop down
on Thirty-Fourth
and vine
he broke my
little bottle of
love potion
number nine-

I held my nose
I closed my eyes
I took a drink
I didn't know
if it was day
or night
I started kissin'
everything in sight
But when I kissed
a cop down
on Thirty-Fourth
and vine
he broke my
little bottle of
love potion
number nine
love potion
number nine
love potion
number nine
love potion
number nine-

As the sun goes down
I move around
Keeping to the shadow
life hangs
By a thread and
I've heard it said
That I'll not see
tomorrow
If that's my destiny
it'll have to be
So I'll face
the future
Running out of time
I'm on the line
But I'll go down
fighting-

Felt the hand
of justice
Telling wrong
from right
Threw me out
upon the street
In the middle of
the night
Cybernetic heartbeat
digital precise
Pneumatic fingers
nearly had me
In their vice
not begging you
I'm telling you
you won't break me
You won't make me
you won't take me
Under blood red skies
you won't break me
You won't take me
I'll fight you
Under blood red skies
through
A shattered city
watched by laser eyes
Overhead the night
squad glides
The decaying paradise
automatic sniper
With computer sights
scans
The bleak horizon
for it's victim
Of the night
they're closing in
They'll never win
you won't break me
You won't take me
you won't make me
Under blood red skies
you won't break me
You won't take me
I'll fight you
Under blood red skies-
as the end is
Drawing near
standing proud
I won't give in
to fear as I die
A legend will be born
I will stand
I will fight you'll
never take me alive-

I'll stand my ground
I won't go down
You won't break me
you won't take me
Just I'll fight you
under blood red skies
You won't break me
you won't take me
Just I'll fight you
under blood red skies-
You'll never take me
alive-
I'm telling you
hands of justice-
I will stand
I will fight-
As the sun
goes down-

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-

I stand alone
in the darkness
The winter of my life
came- so fast
Memories go back
to childhood
To days I still recall
oh how happy I was--
Then there was
no sorrow
There was no pain
walking through
The- green-- fields
sunshine in my eyes
I'm still there
everywhere
I'm the dust
in the wind
I'm the star
in the northern sky--
I never stayed
anywhere
I'm the wind
in the trees
Would you wait
for me forever-

I'm still there
everywhere
I'm the dust
in the wind
I'm the star
in the northern sky--
I never stayed
anywhere
I'm the wind
in the trees
Would you wait
for me forever
Would you wait
for me forever
Will you wait
for me forever-

Well today
I'm so weary
Today I'm
so blue
Sad and
broken hearted
And it's all
because of you
Life was
so sweet dear
Life was
a song
Now you've gone
and left me
Oh where
do I belong
And it's
all for the love
Of a dear
little girl
All for
the love
That sets your heart
in a whirl
I'm a man
who'd give his life
And the joys
of this world
All for the love
of a girl

And it's
all for the love
Of a dear
little girl
All for
the love
That sets your heart
in a whirl
I'm a man
who'd give his life
And the joys
of this world
All for the love
of a girl

Wherever you go
wherever you may
wander in your life
surely you know
I always want to be
there holding your hand
and standing by
to catch you
when you fall
seeing you thru
in ev'rything you do
Let me be there
in your morning
Let me be there
in your night
Let me change
whatever's wrong
and make it right
Let me take you through
that wonder land
that only two can share
All I ask you is
let me be
there.

Watching you grow
and going thru
the changes
in your life
that's how I know
I'll always want to be
there whenever
you feel you need
a friend to lean on
here I am
Whenever you call
you know I'll be there
Let me be there
in your morning
Let me be there
in your night
Let me change
whatever's wrong
and make it right
Let me take you through
that wonder land
that only two can share
All I ask you is
let me be there
Let me be there
in your morning
Let me be there
in your night
Let me change
whatever's wrong
and make it right
Let me take you through
that wonder land
that only two can share
All I ask you is
let me be there
All I ask you is
let me be there.

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---

of a fairy tale
You can take
the future
Even if you fail
I believe in angels
Something good in
everything I see
I believe in angels
when I know
The time is
right for me
I'll cross the stream
I have a dream
I have a dream
a fantasy
To help me
through reality
And my destination
makes it worth
The while
pushing through
The darkness
still another mile
I believe in angels
something good in
Everything I see
I believe in angels
When I know the time
is right for me
I'll cross the stream
I have a dream
I'll cross the stream
I have a dream-

I have a dream
a song to sing
To help me cope
with anything
If you see the wonder
of a fairy tale
You can take
the future
Even if you fail
I believe in angels
Something good in
everything I see
I believe in angels
when I know
The time is
right for me
I'll cross the stream
I have a dream
I'll cross the stream
I have a dream-
