Lay me down
There's a lot of us been pushed around Red or yellow, black or white and brown With a tear of their own Oh, can't you see While you're picking on society That believes on your family tree Calling you to come home You're the keeper of the castle So be a father to your children A provider of all their daily needs Like a sovereign lord protector Be their best friend, please direct them And they'll do well to follow where you lead Oh, in your head You don't believe what the good book says You're gonna strike out [?] instead Cause the world's been unkind But through thick and thin Whatever shape your heart is in You only have one next of kin Better keep 'em in mind You're the keeper of the castle So be a good man to your lady The creator of the sunshine in her day In the garden that you seeded Be a friend when a friend is needed You won't have to look the other way Lay me down There's a lot of us been pushed around Red or yellow, black or white and brown With a tear of their own Oh, can't you see While you're picking on society That believes your family tree A beggin' you to come on home Lay me down There's a lot of us been pushed around Red or yellow, black or white and brown With a tear of their own In your head You don't believe what the good book says |

There's not a street that you can walk
You've got to watch just who you're talking to They're out to get you Can't turn your back on a smiling face Next thing you know, there ain't no trace of you And this I bet you Some people lose and some folks win It's a matter of what they do [Chorus] Are you man enough? Big and bad enough? Are you gonna let 'em shoot your down? When the evil flies and your brother cries Are you gonna be around? Someone needs a friend Just around the bin Don't you think you should be there? Are you man enough when the going's rough? Is it in your heart to care? There's not pretending it goes away With every step that you take you pay your dues And I ain't lying You got to struggle to see the light Cause someone's looking to steal your right to choose And they don't stop trying It's like a jungle outside the door And it's keeping you so confused [Chorus] Gotta keep your eye on the passersby Better watch your step! Cause you never know when the knife will go And they ain't missed yet The strong survive They stay alive They're always cool But that they never teach you in school [Chorus: Repeat x2] ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By DENNIS LAMBERT, BRIAN POTTER <i>Lyrics © Universal Music Publishing Group</i> |

Just because in a moment of madness
I took advantage of your sweet love Don't just hand me a lifetime of sadness When there's so little I'm guilty of One chain don't make no prison Two wrongs don't make no right One rain don't make no river One punch don't make no fight Can you spare me a little affection Would that be askin' too much of you Don't point love in another direction I swear I'll make it up to you One chain don't make no prison Two wrongs don't make no right One rain don't make no river One punch don't make no fight There's a bed I'm keepin' empty for you There's a lot I know I've got to prove Don't let a simple misunderstanding Be a mountain that we can't move |

She used to be
Everything to me When she was my girl when she was my girl I held her near Told her how much I cared When she was my girl when she was my girl When she was my girl There was laughter and loving in my world Everyday When she was my girl Oh what joy she would bring Now I've lost everything She's gone, gone, gone gone, gone! I spend the night Dreaming how she used to be When she was my girl when she was my girl When she was my girl There was laughter and loving in my world Yes it was Cause she was my girl Oh what joy she would bring Now I've lost everything She's gone She used to be Everything to me When she was my girl My girl She was my girl |

I believe in you and me
I believe that we will be In love eternally As far as I can see You will always be The one for me Oh yes you will I believe in dreams again I believe that love will never end And like the river finds the sea I was lost now I'm free I believe in you and me I will never leave your side I will never hurt your pride When all the chips are down I will always be around Just to be right there where you are my love Oh I love you girl I will never leave you out I will always let you in To places no one's ever been Deep inside can't you see I believe in you and me Maybe I'm a fool To feel the way I do But I would play the fool forever Just to be with you forever I believe in miracles Love's a miracle And baby you're a dream come true I was lost now I'm free I believe in you and me I was lost now I'm free girl I believe in you and me |
