I have refused to take part I told them "drink something new" Please let me pull something through I don't know no shame I feel no pain I can't I don't know no shame I feel no pain I can't see the flame But I do know Mandinka I do know Mandinka I do know Mandinka I do I do I do I say I do Soon I can give you my heart I swear I do Soon I can give you my heart I do Mandinka Soon I can give you my heart Soon I can give you my heart Soon I can give you my heart |

I will live by my own policies I will sleep with a clear conscience I will sleep in peace Maybe it sounds mean But I really don't think so You asked for the truth and I told you And there's millions of people To offer advice and say how I should be But they're twisted And they will never be Maybe I was mean But I really don't think so You asked if I'm scared And I the emperor's new clothes The emperor's new clothes The emperor's new clothes The emperor's new clothes The emperor's new clothes Everyone can see what's going on They laugh `cause they know they're untouchable Not because what I said was wrong Everyone can see what's going on They laugh `cause they know they're untouchable Not because what I said was wrong Whatever it may bring I will live by my own policies I will sleep with a clear conscience I will sleep in peace Maybe it sounds mean But I really don't think so You asked for the truth and I told you Through their own words They will be exposed They've got a severe case of The emperor's new clothes The emperor's new clothes The emperor's new clothes The emperor's new clothes |

I?ll remember it And Dublin in a rainstorm And sitting in the long grass in summer Keeping warm I?ll remember it Every restless night We were so young then We thought that everything We could possibly do were the right Then we moved Stolen from our very eyes And I wondered where you went to Tell me when did the light die You will rise You'll return The phoenix from the flame You will learn You will rise You'll return Being what you are There is no other Troy For you to burn And I never meant to hurt you I swear I didn't mean Those things I said I never meant to do that to you Next time I'll keep my hands to myself instead Oh, does she love you What do you want to do? Does she need you like I do? Do you love her? Is she good for you? Does she hold you like I do? Do you want me? Should I leave? I know you're always telling me That you love me Just sometimes I wonder If I should believe Oh, I love you God, I love you I'd kill a dragon for you I?ll die But I will rise And I will return The Phoenix from the flame I have learned I will rise And you'll see me return Being what I am There is no other Troy For me to burn And you should?ve left the light on You should?ve left the light on Then I wouldn't have tried And you'd never have known And I wouldn't have pulled you tighter No I wouldn't have pulled you close I wouldn't have screamed No I can't let you go And the door wasn't closed No I wouldn't have pulled you to me No I wouldn't have kissed your face You wouldn't have begged me to hold you If we hadn't been there in the first place Ah but I know you wanted me to be there oh oh Every look that you threw told me so But you should?ve left the light on You should?ve left the light on And the flames burned away But you're still spitting fire Make no difference what you say You're still a liar You're still a liar You're still a lawyer |

I am stretched on your grave
and will lie there forever if your hands were in mine I'd be sure we'd not sever my apple tree my brightness it's time we were together for I smell of the earth and am worn by the weather when my family thinks that I'm safe in my bed from night until morning I am streteched at your head calling out to the air with tears hot and wild my grief for the girl that I loved as a child do you remember the night we were lost in the shade of the blackthorn and the chill of the frost thanks be to Jesus we did what was right and your maiden head still is your pillar of light the priests and the friars approach me in dread because I still love you my love and you're dead I still would be your shelter through rain and through storm and with you in your cold grave I cannot sleep warm so I'm stretched on your grave and will lie there forever if you hands were in mine I'd be sure we'd not sever my apple tree my brightness it's time we were together for I smell of the earth and am worn by the weather |

Jackie left on a cold, dark night telling me he'd be home sailed the seas for a hundred years leaving me all alone and I've been dead for twenty years I've been washing the sand with my ghostly tears searching the shores for my Jackie-oh I remember the day the young man came said, your Jackie's gone, he got lost in the rain and I ran to the beach and laid me down you're all wrong, I said and they stared at the sand that man knows the sea like the back of his hand he'll be back some time laughing at you and I've been waiting all this time for my man to come, take his hand in mine and lead me away to unsailed shores I've been washing the sand with my salty tears searching the shore these long years and I'll walk the sea forever more 'til I find my Jackie-oh |

John I love you I'm ever so fond of you Will you wait for me 'Til I am heavenly Oh there's much work to do But I love you Oh you're tender Your name's a whisper I let tears fall like rain Apple-sized they were All over her And through all of those times When you could have died This is what you find There's life outside your mother's garden There's life beyond your wildest dreams There hasn't been any explosion We're not spinning like Dorothy If you look now then you'll see why Don't be afraid to cry This time don't let yourself fly Child Pick up those dancing shoes Kick off those wedding blues These are the ways You can choose Child you're tender Your name's a whisper There's life outside your mother's garden There's life beyond your wildest dreams There hasn't been any explosion We're not spinning like Dorothy If you look now then you'll see why Don't be afraid to cry This time don't let yourself fly Child Pick up those dancing shoes Kick off those wedding blues These are the ways You can choose Child I love you I'm ever so fond of you |

It won't be easy you'll think it strange When I try to explain how I feel That I still need your love After all that I've done You won't believe me All you will see is a girl you once knew Although she's dressed up to the nines At sixes and sevens with you I had to let it happen I had to change Couldn't stay all my life Down at heel Looking out of the window Staying out of the sun So I chose freedom Running around trying everything new But nothing impressed me at all I never expected it too Don't cry for me Argentina The truth is I never left you All through my wild days My mad existence I kept my promise Don't keep your distance And as for fortune And as for fame I never invited them in Though it seemed to the world They were all I desired They are illusions They are not the solutions they promised to be The answer was here all the time I love you and hope you love me Have I said too much? There's nothing more I can think of to say to you But all you have to do is look at me To know that every word is true I kept my promise Don't keep your distance |

I hope you're happy now... I could never make you so... You were a hard man... No harder in this world You made me cold and you made me hard And you made me the thief of your heart Winter is cold...oh! But you're colder still And for the first time I feel like you're mine I share you with the one who will Meant what falls apart And turn a blind eye To the thief of your heart Ohhh you lost Ohhh you lost all You lost all Ohhh you lost you lost all You lost all I'll never wash these clothes I want to keep the stain Your blood to me is precious Nor would I spill it in vain Your spirit sings Though your lips never part Singing only to me The thief of your heart From the point of lies Within the mind of God Let light stream forewards Within the minds of man Let light descend on earth From the point of love Within the hearts of God Let love stream forewards Into the hearts of man May the Christ return to earth From the center Where the will of God is now Let the purpose guide the little wills of man Purpose wich the masters now unserve From the center wich we call the race of man Let the plan of love and light work out And may is seal the door where evil dwells Let love and light and power Restore the planet earth Ohhh you lost Ohhh you lost Ohhh you lost all you lost all Ohhh you lost Ohhh you lost all you lost all |
