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

I know your eyes
in the morning sun
I feel you touch me
in the pouring rain
And the moment
that you wander
Far from me
I wanna feel you
In my arms again
then you come to me
On a summer breeze
keep me warm
In your love
then you softly leave
And it's me
you need to show
How deep is your love
how deep is your love
How deep is your love
I really mean to learn
'Cause we're living
in a world of fools
Breaking us down
when they all
Should let us be
we belong to
You and me
I believe in you
You know the door
to my very soul
You're the light
in my deepest darkest
Hour you're my saviour
when I fall
And you may not think
I care for you when
You know down inside
that I really do
And it's me
you need to show
How deep is your love
how deep is your love
How deep is your love
I really mean to learn
'Cause we're living
in a world of fools
Breaking us down
when they all
Should let us be
we belong to
You and me
na na na na na
Na na na na
na na na na na
Na na na na na
na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
then you come to me
On a summer breeze
keep me warm
In your love
then you softly leave
And it's me
you need to show
How deep is your love
how deep is your love
How deep is your love
I really mean to learn
'Cause we're living
in a world of fools
Breaking us down
when they all
Should let us be
we belong to
You and me
na na na na na
How deep is your love
how deep is your love
I really mean to learn
'cause we're living
In a world of fools
breaking us down
When they all
should let us be
We belong to
you and me
Na na na na na
how deep is your love
How deep is your love
I really mean to learn
'Cause we're living in
a world of fools
Breaking us down
when they all
Should let us be we
belong to you and me-

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

Today is gonna
be the day that
They're gonna throw it
back to you
By now you should've
somehow realized
What you gotta do
I don't believe that
Anybody feels the way
I do about you now
Backbeat the word is
on the street
That the fire
in your heart is out
I'm sure you've heard
it all before
But you never really
had a doubt
I don't believe that
anybody feels the way
I do about you now
and all the roads
We have to walk
are winding
And all the lights
that lead us there
Are blinding
there are many things
That I would like
to say to you
But I don't know how
because maybe
You're gonna be
the one that saves me
And after all
you're my wonderwall
Today was gonna
be the day but
They'll never throw it
back to you
By now you should've
somehow realized
What you're not to do
I don't believe that
Anybody feels the way
I do about you now
And all the roads
that lead you there
Are winding
and all the lights
That lights the way
are blinding
There are many things
that I would like
To say to you
but I don't know how
I said maybe
you're gonna be
The one who saves me
and after all
You're my wonderwall
I said maybe
You're gonna be
the one that saves me
And after all
you're my wonderwall
I said maybe
you're gonna be
The one that saves me
you're gonna be
The one that saves me
you're gonna
Be the one
that saves me-

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-

The whispers
in the morning
Of lovers
sleeping tight
Are rolling like
thunder now
As I look in your eyes
I hold on to your body
And feel each move
you make
Your voice is warm
and tender
A love that I could
not forsake
Cause I am your lady
and you are my man
Whenever
you reach for me
I'll do all
that I can
Even though
there may be times
It seems
I'm far away
Never wonder
where I am
Cause I am always
by your side
Cause I am your lady
and you are my man
Whenever
you reach for me
I'll do all
that I can
We're heading
for something
Somewhere
I've never been
Sometimes
I am frightened
But I'm ready to learn
of the power of love
The sound of
your heart beating
Made it clear suddenly
the feeling that
I can't go on
is light years away
Cause I am your lady
and you are my man
Whenever
you reach for me
I'm gonna do all
that I can
We're heading
for something
Somewhere
I've never been
Sometimes
I am frightened
But I'm ready to learn
of the power of love
Power of love
woo woo woo woo
Some keep to love
power of love

I heard that you're
settled down
That you found a girl
and you're married now
I heard that your
dreams came true
Guess she
gave you things
I didn't
give to you
Old friend
why are you so shy?
Ain't like you to
hold back
Or hide
from the light
I hate to turn up out
of the blue uninvited
But I couldn't
stay away
I couldn't
fight it
I had hoped you'd
see my face
And that you'd be
reminded
That for me
it isn't over
Never mind I'll find
someone like you
I wish nothing but
the best for you too
Don't forget me
I begged
I remember
you said
Sometimes it lasts
in love
But sometimes
it hurts instead
Sometimes it lasts
in love
But sometimes
it hurts instead
You know how the
time flies only
Yesterday was the
time of our lives
We were born
and raised
In a summer haze
bound by the surprise
Of our
glory days
I hate to turn up out
of the blue uninvited
But I couldn't
stay away
I couldn't
fight it
I had hoped you'd
see my face
And that you'd be
reminded
That for me
it isn't over
Never mind I'll find
someone like you
I wish nothing but
the best for you too
Don't forget me
I begged
I remember
you said
Sometimes it lasts
in love
But sometimes
it hurts instead
Nothing compares
no worries or cares
Regrets and mistakes
they're memories made
Who would have known
how bittersweet
This would
taste
Never mind I'll find
someone like you
I wish nothing but
the best for you
Don't forget me
I begged
I remember
you said
Sometimes it lasts
in love
But sometimes
it hurts instead
Never mind I'll find
someone like you
I wish nothing but
the best for you too
Don't forget me
I begged
I remember
you said
Sometimes it lasts
in love
But sometimes
it hurts instead
Sometimes it lasts
in love
But sometimes
it hurts instead

Desperado
why don't you come to
Your senses
you've been out
Ridin fences
for so long now
Oh you're a hard one
but I know that
You've got
your reasons
These things
that are pleasin'
You can hurt you
somehow
Don't you draw
the Queen of diamonds
Boy she'll beat you
if she's able
You know
the Queen of hearts
Is always
your best bet
Now it seems to me
some fine things
Have been laid
upon your table
But you only
want the ones
You can't get
desperado
Oh you ain't
gettin no younger
Your pain and
your hunger
They're drivin
you home
And freedom
oh freedom
Well that's just
some people talkin'
Your prison is
walking through
This world all alone
don't you
Feet get cold
in the wintertime
The sky won't snow
and the sun
Won't shine
it's hard to tell
The night time
from the day
And you're losin all
your highs and lows
Ain't it funny
how the feelin
Goes away
desperado
Why don't you
come to your senses
Come down
from your fences
Open the gates
it may be rainin
But there's a rainbow
above you
You'd better
let somebody love you
(Let somebody
love you)
You'd better
let somebody love you
Before
it's too late-

You touched my life
with the softness
in the night
My wish was
your command
until you ran
out of love
Tell myself I'm free
Got the chance
of living
Just for me
No need to hurry home
Now that
you're gone Knife
cuts like a knife
How will I ever heal
I'm so deeply
wounded Knife cuts
like a Knife
You cut away the heart
of my life
when I pretend
where's my to fool
my dearest friend
I wonder if they know
it's just a show
I'm on a stage
Day and night
I go through
my charade
But how can
I disguise
What's in my eyes Knife
cuts like a knife
How will I ever heal
I'm so deeply
wounded Knife
cuts like a knife
You cut away the heart
of my life
Now all woh---
woh-- woh woh
I try to try
Lock it up
The pain of you inside
The pain of watching
you Watching you
Knife cuts
like a knife
How will I ever heal
I'm so deeply wounded
Knife
cuts like a Knife
How will I ever heal
I'm so deeply wounded
You cut away
The heart of
my life.

I can't remember
anything
Can't tell if
this is true or dream
Deep down inside
I feel to scream
This terrible silence
stops me
Now that the war
is through with me
I'm waking up
I can not see
That there is not much
left of me
Nothing is real but
pain now
Hold my breath
as I wish for death
Oh please god
wake me-

Back in the womb
it's much too real
In pumps life that
I must feel
But can't look forward
to reveal
Look to the time
when I'll live
Fed through the tube
that sticks in me
Just like a wartime
novelty
Tied to machines
that make me be
Cut this life off
from me
Hold my breath
as I wish for death
Oh please god
wake me-

Now the world is gone
I'm just one oh god
Help me hold my breath
as I wish for death
Oh please god
help me-

Darkness imprisoning
me all that I see
Absolute horror I
cannot live I cannot
Die trapped in myself
body my holding cell-
Landmine has
taken my sight
Taken my speech
taken my hearing
Taken my arms
taken my legs
Taken my soul left me
with life in hell-

Hello darkness
my old friend
I've come to talk
with you again
Because a vision
softly creeping left
the seeds while
I was sleeping
And the vision
that was planted
in my brain
still remains within
the sound of silence
In restless dreams
I walked alone narrow
streets of cobblestone
'neath the halo
of a street lamp
I turned my collar
to the cold and damp
When my eyes were
stabbed by the flash
of a neon light
split the night and
touched the sound
of silence
And in the naked light
I saw then thousand
people maybe more
people talking without
speaking people
hearing without
listening people
writing songs
that voices never
share no one dare
disturb the sound
of silence
"Fools!" said I
"You do not know
silence like
a cancer grows"
"Hear my words that
I might teach you
Take my arms
that I might reach you"
But my words
like silent raindrops
fell and echoed
in the wells of silence
And the people
bowed and prayed
to the neon god
they made
And the sign flached
out it's warning
In the words
that it was forming
And the signs said
The words of the
prophets are written
on the subway walls
and tenement halls
And whisper'd in
the sounds
of silence-

No I can't forget
this evening or your
face as you were
leaving
but I guess
that's just the
way the story goes
You always smile
but in your eyes
your sorrow shows
yes it shows
No I can't forget
tomorrow
when I think
of all my sorrow
and I had you there
but then I let you go
And now it's only
fair that I should
let you know
what you should know
I can't live
If living is
without you
I can't live
I can't give any more
I can't live
If living is
without you
I can't live
I can't give any more
No I can't forget
this evening or your
face as you were
leaving
but I guess
that's just the
way the story goes
You always
smile but in your
eyes your sorrow shows
yes it shows
I can't live
if living
is without you
I can't live
I can't give any more
I can't live
if living
is without you
I can't live
I can't give any more
I can't live
if living
is without you.

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-

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-

If I should stay
I would only be in
your way
so I'll go
But I know
I'll think of you
every step of
the way and I
will always
love you
will always
love you
You
my darling you
Eum-- bitter sweet
memories
that is all
I'm taking with me
so good-bye
Please don't cry
with both know
I'm not what you need
and I will always
love you
will always
love you Eum---

I hope
life treats you kind
And I hope You
have all you dreamed
of
and I wish you joy
and happiness
but above all
I wish you love
and I will always
love you
will always love you
will always
love you
I will always
love you
I will always
love you
I will always
love you
you
darling I love you
woo always
I'll always
Love you
woo woo

One touch
and you got me stoned
Higher
than I've ever known
You call the shots
and I'll follow
Sunrise but the
night's still young
No words but we're
speaking tongues
If you let me
I might say too much
Your touch
blurred my vision
It's your world
and I'm just in it
Even sober I'm not
thinking straight
'Cause I'm off my face
in love with you
I'm out my head
so into you
And I don't know
how you do it
But I'm forever ruined
by you woo woo woo
Can't sleep 'cause
I'm way too buzzed
Too late now
you're in my blood
I don't hate the way
you keep me up
Your touch
blurred my vision
It's your world
and I'm just in it
Even sober I'm not
thinking straight
'Cause I'm off my face
in love with you
I'm out my head
so into you
And I don't know
how you do it
But I'm forever ruined
by you woo woo woo

'Cause I'm off my face
in love with you
I'm out my head
so into you
And I don't know
how you do it
But I'm forever ruined
by you woo woo woo
By you
woo woo woo

Love of my life
you've hurt me
You've broken my heart
and now you leave me
Love of my life
can't you see
Bring it back
bring it back
Don't take it away
from me because
You don't know
what it means to me
Love of my life
don't leave me
You've taken my love
you now desert me
Love of my life
can't you see
Bring it back
bring it back
Don't take it away
from me because
You don't know
what it means to me-

You will remember when
this is blown over
And everything's
all by the way
When I grow older
I will be there
At your side
to remind you
How I still love you
I still love you-

Back hurry back
please bring it back
Home to me because
you don't know
What it means to me
love of my life
Love of my life
ooh-
