"High" Beautiful dawn - lights up the shore for me.

There is nothing else in the world, I'd rather wake up and see (with you). Beautiful dawn - I'm just chasing time again. Thought I would die a lonely man, in endless night. But now I'm high; running wild among all the stars above. Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me. Beautiful dawn - melt with the stars again. Do you remember the day when my journey began? Will you remember the end (of time)? Beautiful dawn - You're just blowing my mind again. Thought I was born to endless night, until you shine. High; running wild among all the stars above. Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me. Will you be my shoulder when I'm grey and older? Promise me tomorrow starts with you, Getting high; running wild among all the stars above. Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me

..................................................................................... "Goodbye My Lover" Did I disappoint you or let you down? Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown? 'Cause I saw the end before we'd begun, Yes I saw you were blinded and I knew I had won. So I took what's mine by eternal right. Took your soul out into the night. It may be over but it won't stop there, I am here for you if you'd only care. You touched my heart you touched my soul. You changed my life and all my goals. And love is blind and that I knew when, My heart was blinded by you. I've kissed your lips and held your hand. Shared your dreams and shared your bed. I know you well, I know your smell. I've been addicted to you. [x2] Goodbye my lover. Goodbye my friend. You have been the one. You have been the one for me.

I am a dreamer and when I wake, You can't break my spirit - it's my dreams you take. And as you move on, remember me, Remember us and all we used to be I've seen you cry, I've seen you smile. I've watched you sleeping for a while. I'd be the father of your child. I'd spend a lifetime with you. I know your fears and you know mine. We've had our doubts but now we're fine, And I love you, I swear that's true. I cannot live without you. [x2] Goodbye my lover. Goodbye my friend. You have been the one. You have been the one for me. And I still hold your hand in mine. In mine when I'm asleep. And I will bare my soul in time, When I'm kneeling at your feet. Goodbye my lover. Goodbye my friend. You have been the one. You have been the one for me. I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow. I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow. I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow. I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow. ................................................................................. "Out Of My Mind" Judging by the look on the organ-grinder, He'll judge me by the fact that my face don't fit. It's touching that the monkey sits on my shoulder. He's waiting for the day when he gets me, But I don't need no alibi - I'm a puppet on a string. I just need this stage to be seen. We all need a pantomime to remind us what is real. Hold my eye and know what it means. I'm out of my mind. Judging by the look on the organ-grinder, He'll judge me by the fact that my face don't fit.

It's touching that the monkey sits on my shoulder. He's waiting for the day when he gets me, But I won't be your concubine - I'm a puppet not a whore. I just need this stage to be seen. Will you be a friend of mine to remind me what is real? Hold my heart and see that it bleeds. I'm out of my mind. ................................................................................................... "So Long, Jimmy" I just can't believe that it's over. We were chilling out on the sofa, Digging how the guitar goes, In a song that no one knows. Did you lick that line yourself, Or did the voodoo magic help? Does everyone have a different take? Do you seem real but I seem fake? Does everyone get hypnotized by your fire? So long, Jimmy, so long. Though you only stayed a moment, We all know that you're the one. Singing, So long, Jimmy, so long. Sure we're glad for the experience, We miss you now you've gone. We're just swimming in your soul 'cause, We all wish we wrote this song. Life goes on. I'm just so relieved that it's over. We were hanging out going nowhere, Digging how the guitar goes, In a song that no one knows. Did you burn that bridge yourself, Or did the voodoo magic help? Does everyone have a different take? Are you just cool and I'm just baked? Does everyone get mesmerized by your fire? So long, Jimmy, so long. Though you only stayed a moment, We all know that you're the one. Singing, So long, Jimmy, so long. Sure we're glad for the experience, We miss you now you've gone. We're just swimming in your soul 'cause,

We all wish we wrote this song. Life goes on. .................................................................................................. "Billy" Billy's leaving today (don't know where he's going). Holds his head in disgrace (he can't escape the truth). He knows the price that he's paid. He admits that it's too late to admit that he's afraid. Tomorrow comes. Sorrow becomes his soul mate. The damage is done. The prodigal son is too late. Old doors are closed but he's always open, To relive time in his mind. Oh Billy. Billy's leaving today (don't know where he's going). He's got lines on his face (they tell the story of his pain). He accepts it's his fate. He admits it took too long to admit that he was wrong. Tomorrow comes. Sorrow becomes his soul mate. The damage is done. The prodigal son is too late. Old doors are closed but he's always open, To relive time in his mind. Oh Billy. Once he was a lover sleeping with another. Now he's just known as a cheat. And he wish he'd had a mirror; looked a little clearer. Seen into the eyes of the weak. Tomorrow comes. Sorrow becomes his soul mate. The damage is done. The prodigal son is too late. Old doors are closed but he's always open, To relive time in his mind. Oh Billy. .......................................................................................... "Cry" I have seen peace. I have seen pain, Resting on the shoulders of your name. Do you see the truth through all their lies? Do you see the world through troubled eyes? And if you want to talk about it anymore, Lie here on the floor and cry on my shoulder, I'm a friend. I have seen birth. I have seen death. Lived to see a lover's final breath.

Do you see my guilt? Should I feel a fright? Is the fire of hesitation burning bright? And if you want to talk about it once again, On you I depend. I'll cry on your shoulder. You're a friend. You and I have lived through many things. I'll hold on to your heart. I wouldn't cry for anything, But don't go tearing your life apart. I have seen fear. I have seen faith. Seen the look of anger on your face. And if you want to talk about what will be, Come and sit with me, and cry on my shoulder, I'm a friend. And if you want to talk about it anymore, Lie here on the floor and cry on my shoulder, Once again. Cry on my shoulder, I'm a friend. ............................................................................................. "No Bravery" There are children standing here, Arms outstretched into the sky, Tears drying on their face. He has been here. Brothers lie in shallow graves. Fathers lost without a trace. A nation blind to their disgrace, Since he's been here. And I see no bravery, No bravery in your eyes anymore. Only sadness. Houses burnt beyond repair. The smell of death is in the air. A woman weeping in despair says, He has been here. Tracer lighting up the sky. It's another families' turn to die. A child afraid to even cry out says, He has been here. And I see no bravery, No bravery in your eyes anymore.

Only sadness. There are children standing here, Arms outstretched into the sky, But no one asks the question why, He has been here. Old men kneel to accept their fate. Wives and daughters cut and raped. A generation drenched in hate. Says, he has been here. And I see no bravery, No bravery in your eyes anymore. Only sadness. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> "1973" Simona You're getting older Your journey's been Etched on your skin Simona Wish I had known that What seemed so strong Has been and gone [Chorus:] I would call you up every Saturday night And we both stayed out 'til the morning light And we sang, "Here we go again" And though time goes by I will always be In a club with you In 1973 Singing "Here we go again" Simona Wish I was sober So I could see clearly now The rain has gone Simona I guess it's over My memory plays our tune The same old song [Chorus x3]

And though time goes by I will always be In a club with you In 1973 ....................................................................................................... "One Of The Brightest Stars" One day your story will be told. One of the lucky ones who's made his name. One day they'll make you glorious, Beneath the lights of your deserved fame. And it all comes round. Once in a lifetime like it always does. Everybody loves you 'cause you've taken a chance, Out on a dance to the moon, too soon. And they'll say told you so. We were the ones who saw you first of all. We always knew that you were one of the brightest stars. One day they'll tell you that you've changed, Though they're the ones who seem to stop and stare. One day you'll hope to make the grave, Before the papers choose to send you there. And it all comes round. Once in a lifetime like it always does. Nobody loves you 'cause you've taken a chance, Out on a dance to the moon, too soon. And they'll say told you so. We were the ones who saw you first of all. We always knew that you were one of the brightest stars. And they'll say told you so. We were the ones who saw you first of all. We always knew that you were one of the brightest ......................................................................................................... "I'll Take Everything" Oh these feet carry me far. Oh my body. Oh so tired. Mouth is dry. Hardly speak. Holy Spirit rise in me. Here I swear, forever is just a minute to me. I'll take everything in this life. I'll join everyone when I die. Have my body. Have my mind. Have my coat. Take my time. These I borrow. Borrow so far. Turn to dust. Fall apart. Here I swear, forever is just a minute to me. I'll take everything in this life. I'll join everyone and understand. 'Cause all men die. 'Cause all men die.

I'll take everything in this life I'll join everyone since I'm gonna die I'll take everything in this life I'll join everyone 'cause all men die ............................................................................................... "Same Mistake" Saw the world turning in my sheets and once again I cannot sleep. Walk out the door and up the street; look at the stars beneath my feet. Remember rights that I did wrong, so here I go. Hello, hello. There is no place I cannot go. My mind is muddy but my heart is heavy. Does it show? I lose the track that loses me, so here I go. And so I sent some men to fight, and one came back at dead of night. Said he'd seen my enemy. Said he looked just like me, So I set out to cut myself and here I go. I'm not calling for a second chance, I'm screaming at the top of my voice. Give me reason but don't give me choice. 'Cause I'll just make the same mistake again. And maybe someday we will meet, and maybe talk and not just speak. Don't buy the promises 'cause, there are no promises I keep. And my reflection troubles me, so here I go. I'm not calling for a second chance, I'm screaming at the top of my voice. Give me reason but don't give me choice. 'Cause I'll just make the same mistake, I'm not calling for a second chance, I'm screaming at the top of my voice. Give me reason but don't give me choice. 'Cause I'll just make the same mistake again. Saw the world turning in my sheets and once again I cannot sleep. Walk out the door and up the street; look at the stars. Look at the stars fall down. And wonder where did I go wrong. ................................................................................................. "Carry You Home" Trouble is her only friend and he's back again. Makes her body older than it really is. She says it's high time she went away, No one's got much to say in this town. Trouble is the only way is down. Down, down. As strong as you were, tender you go. I'm watching you breathing for the last time. A song for your heart, but when it is quiet,

I know what it means and I'll carry you home. I'll carry you home. If she had wings she would fly away, And another day God will give her some. Trouble is the only way is down. Down, down. As strong as you were, tender you go. I'm watching you breathing for the last time. A song for your heart, but when it is quiet, I know what it means and I'll carry you home. I'll carry you home. And they were all born pretty in New York City tonight, And someone's little girl was taken from the world tonight, Under the Stars and Stripes. As strong as you were, tender you go. I'm watching you breathing for the last time. A song for your heart, but when it is quiet, I know what it means and I'll carry you home. I'll carry you home. ...................................................................................................... "Give Me Some Love" Me and my guitar play my way. It makes them frown. But little pieces by the highway bring me down. Mine is not a heart of stone, I am only skin and bone, And those little pieces are little pieces of my own. Why don't you give me some love? I've taken ship-load of drugs. I'm so tired of never fixing the pain. Valium said to me, I'll take you seriously, And we'll come back as someone else, Who's better than yourself. Many faces at the doorway all hang round. Watch me fighting in the hallway but make no sound. So I'm standing all alone, and I'm only skin and bone. So many faces but they all look out for their own. Why don't you give me some love? I've taken ship-load of drugs. I'm so tired of never fixing the pain. Valium said to me, I'll take you seriously, And we'll come back as someone else, Who's better than yourself. And some day soon they'll drop the bomb and let it all out. Someday. I know that someday soon we'll all be gone so let it all out. Let it all out today. And give me some love,

Yeah, give me some love, Come on, give me some love today. .................................................................................................... "I Really Want You" Many prophets preach on bended knee. Many clerics wasted wine. Do the bloodied sheets on those cobbled streets mean I have wasted time? Are there silver shores on paradise? Can I come in from the cold? I killed a man in a far away land, my enemy I'm told. I really want you to really want me, but I really don't know if you can do that. I know you want to know what's right but I know it's so hard for you to do that. And time's running out as often it does, and often dictates that you can't do that. But fate can't break this feeling inside that's burning up through my veins. I really want you. I really want you. I really want you - now. No matter what I say or do, the message isn't getting through, And you're listening to the sound of my breaking heart. I really want you. I really want you. Is a poor man rich in solitude, or will Mother Earth complain? Did the beggar pray for a sunny day, but Lady Luck for rain? They say a million people bow and scrape to an effigy of gold. I saw life begin and the ship we're in and history unfold. I really want you to really want me but I really don't know if you can do that. I know you want to know what's right but I know it's so hard for you to do that. And time's running out as often it does and often dictates that you can't do that. But fate can't break this feeling inside that's burning up through my veins. I really want you. I really want you. I really want you - now. No matter what I say or do, the message isn't getting through, And you're listening to the sound of my breaking heart. No matter what I say or do, the message isn't getting through, And you're listening to the sound of my breaking heart. ............................................................................................................ "Shine On" Are they calling for our last dance? I see it in your eyes. In your eyes. Same old moves for a new romance. I could use the same old lies, but I'll sing, Shine on, just, shine on! Close your eyes and they'll all be gone. They can scream and shout that they've been sold out, But it paid for the cloud that we're dancing on. So shine on. Just shine on!

With your smile just as bright as the sun. 'Cause they're all just slaves to the gods they made But you and I just shone. Just shone. And when silence greets my last goodbye, The words I need are in your eyes, and I'll sing. Shine On, just, shine on! Close your eyes and they'll all be gone. They can scream and shout that they've been sold out, But it paid for the cloud that we're dancing on. So shine on. Just shine on! With your smile just as bright as the sun. 'Cause they're all just slaves to the gods they made, But you and I just shone. Just shone. .................................................................................................. "Annie" Annie, you had your name in the bright lights. I thought I saw your photograph having such a laugh in a magazine, Did it all come tumbling? Annie, you were made for the big time. They said you're a star to be in the NME, But the walls came tumbling down, down. Will you go down on me? 'Cause Annie you're a star, that's just not going very far. And all the world will know your name, And you'll be famous as you are 'cause I'll sing for you. Annie, would it be nice to be recognised? And did you practise your autograph but now no one's asked and it's such a shame, That the dreams are crumbling? Annie, why aren't you bathed in the limelight? 'Cause I thought that you said you'd be a celebrity several years ago. Did it all come tumbling down, down. Will you go down on me? 'Cause Annie you're a star, that's just not going very far. And all the world will know your name, And you'll be famous as you are 'cause I'll sing for you. ........................................................................................................... "I Can't Hear The Music" Is it a warning? Is it an evil sign? Is it a people who have lost their mind? Is it the Darkness? Is it a man resigned? Is it a best friend leaving you behind? Is it ever gonna stop? Will they ever let you go? You're in a rush, they don't care enough 'cause their lives are very slow. Time is ticking on. You don't get a second shot, And when you sell your soul for a leading role, will The Lost Souls be forgot?

And if I can't hear the music and the audience is gone, I'll dance here on my own. And I hope the Lonely Hearts' Club Band will play out one last song, Before the sun goes down. And is it envy? Should it really make you sick? Is now the time that you realise you'd better get out quick? 'Cause time is ticking on too long to fake your smile, But then you sold your soul for a leading role, so wear it for a while. And if I can't hear the music and the audience is gone, I'll dance here on my own. And I hope the Lonely Hearts' Club Band will play out one last song, Before the sun goes down, And there she goes. And there she goes. So run, Yoshimi, run. 'Cause Billy's got himself a gun, And you're right to be afraid: they'll send you to your grave 'Cause you're strange and new. So run, Yoshimi, run. 'Cause Billy's got himself a gun, And you're right to be afraid: they'll send you to your grave 'Cause you're strange and new. And if I can't hear the music and the audience is gone, I'll dance.
