I'm sittin' in the window of a street cafe
Watchin' you walking by each day It seems that you always wanna look my way Hey, you can't deny, boy You're such a shy boy So good looking you seem to be But you're too tongue-tied to say hi to me You could make it happen so easily Woah, I'll tell you why boy 'Cos I'm looking for a shy boy Most guys advertise By making eyes and telling lies If you only knew You could make your dreams come true All you gotta do is ask me to If this was a quiz on a TV show And the prize was a guy who would love me so Whatever they ask, the answer I know Hey, my reply boy Is gimme a shy boy Most guys advertise By making eyes and telling lies If you only knew You could make your dreams come true All you gotta do is ask me to Some guys act a bit too sure And maybe you're thinkin' that less is more But Honey, you still gotta knock on my door Hey, just try boy And you could be my boy I'll tell you why boy 'Cos I'm looking for a shy boy Just try boy, you're such a shy boy |

There are nine million bicycles in Beijing
That's a fact It's a thing we can't deny Like the fact that I will love you till I die We are twelve billion light years from the edge That's a guess No-one can ever say it's true But I know that I will always be with you I'm warmed by the fire of your love everyday So don't call me a liar Just believe everything that I say There are six billion people in the world More or less And it makes me feel quite small But you're the one I love the most of all We're high on the wire With the world in our sight And I'll never tire Of the love that you give me every night There are nine million bicycles in Beijing That's a Fact It's a thing we can't deny Like the fact that I will love you till I die And there are nine million bicycles in Beijing And you know that I will love you till I die! |

First of all must go
Your scent upon my pillow And then I'll say goodbye To your whispers in my dreams And then our lips will part In my mind and in my heart Cos your kiss Went deeper than my skin Piece by piece Is how I'll let go of you Kiss by kiss Will leave my mind one at a time One at a time First of all must fly My dreams of you and I There's no point in holding on to those And then our ties will break For your and my own sake Just remember This is what you chose Piece by piece Is how I'll let go of you Kiss by kiss Will leave my mind one at a time One at a time I'll shed like skin Our memories of lazy days And fade away the shadow of your face Piece by piece Is how I'll let go of you Kiss by kiss Will leave my mind one at a time One at a time One at a time One at a time |

The first time that I saw you
I said "for goodness sake That man's got the power He's a charmer with a snake" I was thrilled and fascinated But somehow liberated When you took me To a place I'd never been You showed me lots of things I'd never seen You set me free As if you'd taken me Halfway up the Hindu Kush And I love you For showing me the view From Halfway up the Hindu Kush The next time that I saw you You looked into my eyes I was sitting on your carpet When I felt it begin to rise I kinda got the feeling I was floating to the ceiling Instead of only looking at the sky You picked me up And showed me how to fly You set me free As if you'd taken me Halfway up the Hindu Kush And I love you For showing me the view From Halfway up the Hindu Kush From Halfway up the Hindu From Halfway up the Hindu From Halfway up the Hindu Kush You set me free As if you'd taken me Halfway up the Hindu Kush And I love you For showing me the view From Halfway up the Hindu Kush |

My mamma done told me
When I was in pigtails My mamma done told me, Hon A man is a two-face He'll give you the big eye And when the sweet talking's done A man is a two-face A worrisome thing who'll leave you to sing The blues in the night Now the rains a-fallin' Hear the trains a-callin', whooee! Hear the lonesome whistle Blowin' across the trestle, whooee A-whooee-ah-whooee, clickety-clack Comes echoing back The blues in the night From Natchez to Mobile From Memphis to St. Joe Wherever the four winds blow I've been in some big towns And heard me some big talk But there is one thing I know A man is a two-face, a worrisome thing who'll leave you to sing The blues in the night My mamma done told me When I was in pig tails My mamma done told me, Hon A man is a two-face He'll give you the big eye And when the sweet talking's done A man is a two-face A worrisome thing Who'll leave you to sing The blues in the night My mamma done told me |

If a black man is racist, is it okay?
If it's the white man's racism that made him that way Because the bully's the victim they say By some sense they're all the same Because the line between Wrong and right Is the width of a thread From a spider's web The piano keys are black and white But they sound like a million colours in your mind I could tell you to go to war Or I could march for peace and fighting no more How do I know which is right And I hope he does when he sends you to fight Because the line between wrong and right Is the width of a thread from a spider's web The piano keys are black and white But they sound like a million colours in your mind Should we act on a blame? Or should we chase the moments away? Should we live? Should we give? Remember forever the guns and the feathers in time Because the line between wrong and right Is the width of a thread from a spider's web The piano keys are black and white But they sound like a million colours in your mind The piano keys are black and white But they sound like a million colours in your mind But they sound like a million colours in your mind |

These blue shoes seem to suit me well
When I feel like hell As I do now that you're gone Lost and lonely since you stopped caring I've been wearing my new shoes I've been wearing my blue shoes You and I made the perfect pair It don't seem fair I loved you more than you know Sorry I'm in such a sorry state But while I wait for some good news I'll be wearing my blue shoes Don't feel like walking strong Shufflin' along on my way home Trudgin' down that shopping street Where we used to meet But I ain't buying I'm wearing my blue shoes and crying These blue shoes seem to suit my sould Since you shot that hole Since you shot that hole in my heart And if I wind up on the sidewalk bleeding I won't be needing my new shoes Won't be needing my blue shoes These blue shoes seem to suit me well When I feel like hell As I do now that you're gone Lost and lonely since you stopped caring I've been wearing my new shoes I've been wearing my blue shoes |

I'm on the road again. Well I'm so tired of cryin' but I'm out on the road again I ain't got nobody, just to call my special friend. You know the first time I traveled out in the rain and snow In the rain and snow. You know the first time I traveled out in the rain and snow In the rain and snow.

She said Lord have mercy on my wicked one. Well now take it from me, momma, Please don't you cry no more. Take a hint from me, momma, Please don't you cry no more.

Some call it faith, some call it love.
some call it guidance from above. You are the reason we found ours, So thank you, stars. Some people think it's far away, some know it's with them every day. You are the reason we found ours, So thank you, stars. There are no winds that can blow it away on the air, when they try to blow it away is when you know it will always be there. To some it's the strength to be apart, to some it's the strange feeling in the heart. And when you're out there on your own, It's the way back home. There are no winds that can blow it away on the air, when they try to blow it away is when you know it will always be there. Some call it faith, some call it love. some call it guidance from above. You are the reason we found ours, So thank you, stars. So thank you, stars. So thank you, stars. |

Show me how you do that trick
The one that makes me scream he said The one that makes me laugh he said And threw his arms around my neck Show me how you do it And I promise you I promise that I'll run away with you I'll run away with you Spinning on that dizzy edge I kissed his face and i kissed his head And dreamed of all the different ways I had To make him glow Why are you so far away? he said Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you That I'm in love with you You, soft and only You,lost and lonely You, strange as angels Dancing in the deepest oceans Twisting in the water You're just like a dream You're just like a dream Daylight licked me into shape I must have been asleep for days And moving lips to breathe his name I opened up my eyes And found myself alone alone Alone above a raging sea That stole the only boy I loved And drowned him deep inside of me You, soft and only You, lost and lonely You, just like heaven You, soft and only You, lost and lonely You, just like heaven |

You're beautiful so silently
It lies beneath a shade of blue It struck me so violently When I looked at you But others pass, they never pause, To feel that magic in your hand To me you're like a wild rose They never understand why I cried for you When the sky cried for you And when you went I became a hopeless drifter But this life was not for you Though I learned from you, That beauty need only be a whisper I'll cross the sea for a different world, With your treasure, a secret for me to hold In many years they may forget This love of ours or that we met, They may not know How much you meant to me. I cried for you And the sky cried for you, And when you went I became a hopeless drifter. But this life was not for you, Though I learned from you, That beauty need only be a whisper Without you now I see, How fragile the world can be And I know you've gone away But in my heart you'll always stay. I cried for you And the sky cried for you, And when you went I became a hopeless drifter. But this life was not for you, Though I learned from you, That beauty need only be a whisper That beauty need only be a whisper |

They say we never landed on the moon
There's no wind there, they assume I guess conspiracies are nothing new, But I'm sure I've been there with you. And I don't believe that in space The only life is here on earth How could we be the only race That loves and hates 'til death from birth? But I do believe in love, Though I should never rely on love Nothing else excites me, But loving you. Is it true a politician's heart Can rust away and fall apart? I guess it must be hard, It must be hard, To know what's good And to know what's easy You might think it's strange, For all my wild ideas, But I do not believe that change, Can ever happen without tears. But I do believe in love, Though I should never rely on love Nothing else excites me, But loving you |
