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-

Words
don't come easy to me
How can I find
away to make you see
I love you Words
don't come easy
Words
don't come easy to me
This is the only way
for me to say
I love you Words
don't come easy
Well I'm
just a music man
Melodies for
my best friend
But my words
are coming along
Then I
I reveal my heart
to you and
Hope you believe
it's true cause
Words
don't come easy to me
How can I find away
to make you see
I love you Words
don't come easy
This is
just a simple song
That l've
made for you
on my own
There's on hidden
meaning you know
When I
When I say
I love you and honey
please believe
I really do cause-

Words
don't come easy to me
How can I find away
to make you see
I love you words
don't come easy
It isn't easy
Words don't come easy
Words
don't come easy to me
How can I find away
to make you see
I love you words
don't come easy
Don't come easy to me
This is the only way
for me to say
I love you
Words don't come easy-

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-

There is a house
in New Orleans
They call the
rising sun
And it's been the ruin
of many a poor boy
And Go I know I'm one
My mother was a tailor
She sewed my
new blue jeans
My father was
a gamblin' man
Down in
New Orleans
Now the only thing
a gambler needs
Is a suitcase
and a trunk
And the only time
he'll be satisfied
Is when he's all
a drunk

Oh mother
tell your children
Not to do
what I have done
spend your lives
in sin and misery
In the house
of the rising sun
Well I've got one
foot on the platform
The other
foot on the train
I'm going back to
New Orleans
To wear that ball
and chain
Well there is
a house in New Orleans
They call
the rising sun
And It's been the ruin
of many a poor boy
And God I know
I'm 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.

I can tell
by your eyes
That you've probably
been crying forever
And the stars
in the sky
Don't mean nothing
to you
They're a mirror
I don't wanna talk
About it
How you broke my heart
If I stay here just
a little bit longer
If I stay here
won't you listen
To my heart
oh my heart
If I stand all alone
will the shadow
Hide the colors
of my heart
Blue for the tears
black
For the night's fears
the stars in the sky
Don't mean nothing
to you
They're a mirror
I don't wanna talk
About it
How you broke my heart
If I stay here just
a little bit longer
If I stay here
won't you listen
To my heart
oh my heart my heart
Oh my heart
this is so hard-

I don't wanna talk
about it
How you broke my heart
and if I stay here
Just a little bit
longer if I stay here
Won't you listen
to my heart
Oh my heart
my heart oh my heart-

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-

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-

I had to meet you here
today
There's just so many
things to say
Please don't stop me
till I'm through
This is something
I hate to do
We've been meeting
here so long
I guess what we done
was wrong
Please darling
don't you cry
Let's just kiss
and say goodbye
Many months
have passed us by
I'm gonna miss you
I'm gonna miss you
I can't lie
I'm gonna miss you
I've got ties
and so do you
I just think this is
the thing to do
It's gonna hurt me
I can't lie
Maybe you'll meet
you'll meet
Another guy
understand me
Won't you try try try

Let's just kiss and
say goodbye mm-
I'm gonna miss you

Understand me

I believe
the children are
our future
Teach them well and
let them lead the way
Show them all
the beauty
they possess inside
Give them a
sence of pride
to make it easier
Let the children's
laughter remind us
how we used to be
Everybody's
searching for a hero
people need someone
to look up to
I never found anyone
who full filled
my needs
A lonely place to be
and so I learned
to depend on me
I decided long ago
never to walk
in anyone's shadow
If I fail
if I succeed at least
I live as I believe
No matter
what they take from me
They can't take away
My dignity
Because the greatest
love of all
is happening to me
I've found
the greatest
love of all
inside of me
The greatest
love of all is
easy to achieve
Learning to love
Yourself
it is the Greatest
love of all
I believe
the children
are our future
Teach them well and
let them lead the way
Show them
all the beauty
they possess inside
Give them a sence
of pride to make
it easier
Let the children's
laughter remind us
how we used to be
I decided long ago
never to walk
in anyone's shadow
If I fail
if I succeed
at least I live
as I believe
No matter
what they take from me
They can't take away
My dignity
Because the greatest
love of all
is happening to me
I've found
the greatest
love of all
inside of me
The greatest
love of all
is easy to achieve
Learning to love
Yourself it is
the Greatest
love of all
And if by chance
that special place
That you've been
dreaming of
leads you to
a lonely place
find
Your strength
in love ~

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.

Sometimes it's hard
to be a woman
Giving all your love
to just one man
You'll have bad times
and he'll have
good times
Doin' things that
you don't understand
But if you love
him you'll
forgive him
Even though he's hard
to understand
and if you love him
Oh be proud of him
Cause after
all he's just a man
Stand by your man
Give him
two arms to cling to
And something
warm to come to
when nights
are cold and lonely
Stand by your man
And tell the world
you love him
Keep giving
all the love you can
Stand by your man -
Stand by your man
And tell the world
you love him
Keep giving
all the love you can
Stand by
your man -

There's a feeling
there's a fire
There's a whisper
preaching to the choir
Take the leaders
and the liars
Throw your fears
on the funeral pyre
Keep on breathing
don't go under
Keep your ear
to the ground
Hear
the thunder
When the earth quakes
and the ground shakes
Throw your passion
to the wind
When the storm
breaks
Mother sister
father brother
Step
into the light
And start
a tiny riot
Stop being
so goddxxx quiet
Got a spark
in your heart
So strike it
crush your way up here
Turn the pouring rain
to a tidal wave
And
fight it
Got something inside
don't hide it
Like dynamite ignitin'
crush your way up here
Turn
the pouring rain
To the wave
of a tiny riot
Take the music
learn to use it
Turn
it up
'Til your speakers
blow fuses
Learn the rhythm
but never lose it
Keep
on moving
'Til you know
what the truth is
If butterflies can use
their wings
To turn the wind
to hurricanes
You and I can
break
The chains
it takes a day to
Start
a tiny riot
Stop being
so goddxxx quiet
Got a spark
in your heart
So strike it
crush your way up here
Turn the pouring rain
to a tidal wave
And
fight it
Got something inside
don't hide it
Like dynamite ignitin'
crush your way up here
Turn
the pouring rain
To the wave
of a tiny riot
In the darkness
there's a light
You can find it
if you try
If you open up
your eyes
If you're drifting out
to sea
You can just
hold on to me
We'll make it
to the other side
And start
a tiny riot
Stop being
so goddxxx quiet
Got a spark
in your heart
So strike it
crush your way up here
Turn the pouring rain
to a tidal wave
And
fight it
Got something inside
don't hide it
Like dynamite ignitin'

To the wave
of a tiny riot
Oh yeah good God I'm

A broken man

Won't even

The devil's dance
to win my soul
What we doin'

Why the bottom

Why we got good sxxx

Why the feel for

a picture
Tellin'

Like a heart
in the best
Way should

You had it

Keep hopin' for

To live

Fxxx you
and your mom
And your sister
and your job
And your broke-ass
car
And that sxxx
you call art
Fxxx you
and your friends
That I'll never see
again
Everybody but your dog
you can all fxxx off
I swear
I meant to mean
The best
when it ended
Even tried
to bite
My tongue
when you start sxxx
Now you're textin'
all my friends
Asking
questions
They never even
liked you
In the first
place
Dated a girl
that I hate
For the attention
she only made it
Two days
what a connection
It's like you'd do
anythin'
For my affection
you're goin'
All about it
in the worst ways
I was into you
but I'm over it now
And I was tryna
be nice
But nothing's
getting through
So let me
spell it out
A-B-C-D-E F you
and your mom
And your sister
and your job
And your broke-ass
car
And that sxxx
you call art
Fxxx you
and your friends
That I'll never see
again
Everybody but your dog
you can all fxxx off
Nah nah nah nah nah
nah nah nah
A-B-C-D-E
F you
You said
you just needed space
And so I gave it
when I had nothin'
To say
you couldn't take it
Told everyone
I'm a bxxxx
So I became it
always had
To put yourself
above me
I was into you
but I'm over it now
And I was tryna
be nice
But nothing's
getting through
So let me
spell it out
A-B-C-D-E F you
and your mom
And your sister
and your job
And your Craigslist
couch
And the way
your voice sounds
Fxxx you
and your friends
That I'll never see
again
Everybody but your dog
you can all fxxx off
Nah nah nah nah nah
nah nah nah
A-B-C-D-E
F off
Nah nah nah nah nah
nah nah nah
A-B-C-D-E F you
and your mom
And your sister
and your job
And your broke-ass
car
And that sxxx
you call art
Fxxx you
and your friends
That I'll never see
again
Everybody but your dog
you can all fxxx off

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
