If I could make a wish, I think I'd pass
Can't think of anything I need No cigarettes, no sleep, no light, no sound Nothing to eat, no books to read Making love with you Has left me peaceful, warm and tired What more could I ask There's nothing left, to be desired Peace came upon me And it leaves me weak So sleep, silent angel Go to sleep Sometimes All I need is the air That I breathe And to love you All I need is the air That I breathe Just to love you All I need is the air That I breathe Peace came upon me And it leaves me weak So sleep silent angel Go to sleep Sometimes All I need is the air That I breathe And to love you All I need is the air That I breathe Just to love you All I need is the air That I breathe Sometimes All I need is the air That I breathe And to love you All I need is the air That I breathe Just, to love you All I need is the air That I breathe |

The sun is overshadowed by the presence of the moon Night time has fallen she'll be comin' home soon Leave the door wide open, ah, so she won't need a key Lock it behind you baby draw the blinds so no-one can see There's only one thing on my mind Don't let don't let me down Don't let don't let me down My feelings are near the ground Silence is golden, ah, for me there's just one choice The music of your laughter, rippling of your voice The freshness of the evergreen, ah, fades as if too shy Can't compete with your beauty, couldn't if it tried There's only one thing on my mind Don't let, don't let me down Don't let, don't let me down My feelings are near the ground Let's build something to climb on Making the show a live one No need for make-up let's be real Give all in what your giving Making life worth living Being alive's how you should feel Oh and don't let, don't let me down My feelings are near the ground Don't want the sun to be shining Raising his eyebrows at the moon Saying I told you so she wouldn't show Well don't speak too soon I hear her footsteps walking on the outer floor Well it could be, I don't know, I don't know for sure There's only one thing on my mind Don't let, don't let me down Don't let, don't let me down My feelings are near the ground Come on back, can't live without you Come on back, (I need you, I need you, I) can't live without you Come on back, (I want you, I want you, I)can't live without you Come on back, (C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, I) can't live without you Come on back, (I love you, I love you, I) can't live without you Come on back, (I need you, I need you, I) can't live without you |

It's late, and the week-end's near You could say I can't wait Till the gang gets here Eight, and the Angels are roaring Shining those dips Straight line for the strip If I back out Fake a black out At my night on the chicken run Need some moonshine Doctor goodtime Keeping my nerves in line Down on the run Cy, the pack leader's wild Even preaches to ride In a Brando style Fast, two shadows are closing Passing like knives Short cut on our lives If I back out Fake a black out At my night on the chicken run Needs some moonshine Doctor goodtime Keeping my nerves in line Down on the run When the boys are called together To hand me out a feather, I'm through Sweating in my leather so I guess its now or never Something I've gotta do, just gotta do What I gotta do It's late, and the week-end's near You could say I can't wait Till the gang gets here Eight, and the Angels are roaring Shining those dips Straight line for the strip Shining those dips Straight line for the strip Passing like knives Short cut on our lives Shining those dips Straight line for the strip |

I wasn't there (I wasn't there) When I was needed (I wasn't there) I was out on the road Playing with my rock and roll band (I wasn't there) I should have been right by her side Like a good man ought to be But this rock'n'roll music sure gotta hold on me I wasn't there (I wasn't there) When my shack was burning (I wasn't there) I was out on the road playing with my rock'n'roll band (I wasn't there) While someone else put out the fire I was wailing my guitar Somehow this rock'n'roll music sure got a hold on me Somewhere I know, I sold my soul Sold it to the devil or the king of rock'n'roll Once I found out, what the music was all about Picked up my baggage And I joined in a big rock show I knew that I had to go I wasn't there (I wasn't there) There for my wedding (I wasn't there) I was back on the road Playing with my rock and roll band (I wasn't there) But when I came off stage that night I found her waiting patiently, good girl She knows that rock'n'roll music sure got a hold Rock'n'roll music sure got a hold She knows that rock'n'roll music sure got a hold on me |

Out on the town kicking around feeling bluesy It's getting late I can't afford to be choosy Should be home and dry by now tried every trick in the book but Another night Saturday night and I'm losing Another night Saturday night and I'm losing The DJ plays a song from the past I remember I hold her tight in my arms she surrenders It's the same old record playing but it's a different girl that's swaying chorus As we move around the room whispering things with my eyes closed I feels that you're here Then the music stops I open my eyes My fantasy ends We're not even friends So leave me to catch my ride pay my fare on my way home The same thing every week on my own Next time around you might be there my luck might change but until then chorus |

I woke up in the morning
Heard a mockingbird sing Was he laughing at me I went to the basin washed the sleep out my eyes So I could see A note on the bed close to where my lover should be She slipped away in the night The writing was shaky and with tears on the sheets I'm sorry we had a fight So farewell sweet lover farewell I'm sorry we never said goodbye So farewell sweet lover farewell Left with a tear in your eye Must've been brewing for a very long time In the wardrobe the hangers are bare Don't know how you did it it must've been planned You even took your favourite chair So goodbye my lady goodbye You won't find no tear in my eye So goodbye my lady goodbye Going out tonight to get high Found myself at Charlies scene Drinking all fashions sticky painted movie queen Winked her eye at me That's how it happened Diamond shoes satin dress flashin' flashin' flashin' flashin' Woke up in the morning heard my mockingbird sing And it was singin' for me The lady I met last night's here by my side She's good company Well hello sweet lady hello Good morning with a smile Well hello sweet lady hello This lady's gonna make it alright This lady's gonna make it alright This lady's gonna make it alright Lady lady This lady's gonna make it alright x4 |

The road is long with many a winding turn
That leads us to who knows where who knows where But I'm strong strong enough to carry him He ain't heavy, he's my brother So as we go, his welfare is my concern No burden is he to bear we'll get there For I know he would not encumber me He ain't heavy, he is my brother If I'm laden at all I'm laden with sadness That everyone's heart isn't filled with the gladness Of love for one another It's a long long road from which there is no return While we're on our way to there why not share? And the road doesn't weigh me down at all He ain't heavy, he's my brother |

What to do now that she doesn't want me? That's what haunts me What to do? What to do to keep from feeling lonely? Want her only. What to do? The record hops and all the happy times we had. The soda shop, the walks to school now make me sad. Oh, what to do? I know my heart is showing, still not knowing what to do. (repeat) What to do? What to do? (to do, what to do, what to do) x8 |

Fifi the flea fell in love
With a clown from a flea circus fair She gave him her heart But he still couldn't see That for such a long time she had cared He put himself 'round all the other girl fleas Unaware that he hurt her so badly She cried in the arms of his manager friend And declared that she loved the clown madly One day Fifi went And this drove the clown wild The poor little flea started crying Never you mind his manager said I ought not to tell but she's dyin' Dyin' for love of you little flea You've broken her heart with your lyin' She couldn't stand to see you throw Her love away without tryin' The day Fifi died the little clown vowed He'd tend her grave every hour He broke down and cried When he saw her grave And on it he placed a small flower Poor little flea he wasted away He'd lost his Fifi forever So they opened her grave Put him inside Now at last they are together |

Went to a fortune teller
To have my fortune read I didn't know what to tell her I had a dizzy feeling in my head She took a hold of my palm She said Son you feel kind of warm And then she looked into a crystal ball She said You're in love I said how could that be so I'm not friendly with the girls I know She said when the next one arrives You gotta look into her eyes I left there in a hurry Looking forward to my big surprise The next day I discovered That the fortune teller told me lies I rushed straight back to that woman Just as mad as I could be I said I didn't see nobody Why'd she made a fool of me Then something struck me Like lightning from up above While looking at the fortune teller I fell in love Now I'm a happy fella I'm married to the fortune teller I'm as happy as I can be Now I get my fortunes told for free |

A winter's day in a deep and dark December I am alone Gazing from my window to the street below On a freshly fallen , silent shroud of snow I am a rock I am an island Don't talk of love Well, I've heard the word before It's sleeping in my memory Don't disturb the slumber Of feelings that have died If I never loved, I never would have cried chorus I build walls A fortress deep and might That none may penetrate I have no need of friendship Friendship causes pain It's laughter and it's loving I disdain chorus I have my books And my poetry to protect me I am shielded in my armor Hiding in my room, safe within my womb I touch no one and no one touches me chorus And a rock feels no pain And an island never cries chorus x 2 |

White chalk written on red brick
Our love told in a heart It's there, drawn in the playground Love, kiss, hate, or adore I love Jennifer Eccles I know that she loves me I love Jennifer Eccles I know that she loves me La la, la-la la la la La la, la-la la-la La la, la-la la la la La la, la-la la-la I used to carry her satchels She used to walk by my side But when we got to her doorstep Her dad wouldn't let me inside One Monday morning Found out I'd made the grade Started me thinking Had she done the same? La la, la-la la la la La la, la-la la-la La la, la-la la la la La la, la-la la-la One Monday morning Found out I'd made the grade Started me thinking Had she done the same? I hope Jennifer Eccles Is going to follow me there Our love is bound to continue Love, kiss, hate, or adore Singing I love Jennifer Eccles I know that she loves me I love Jennifer Eccles I know that she loves me La la, la-la la la la La la, la-la la-la La la, la-la la la la La la, la-la la-la Singing La la, la-la la la la La la, la-la la-la La la, la-la la la la La la, la-la la-la |

If you could only see me
I know exactly where I am You wouldn't want to be me Oh, I can assure you of that I'm not the guy to run with 'Cause I'll throw you off the line I'll break you and destroy you Given time He's King Midas with a curse He's King Midas in reverse He's King Midas with a curse He's King Midas in reverse It's plain to see it's hopeless Going on the way we are So even though I'd lose you You'd be better off by far He's not the man to hold your trust Everything he touches turns to dust In his hands Nothing he can do is right He'd even like to sleep at night But he can't All he touches turns to dust All he touches turns to dust All he touches turns to dust All he touches turns to dust I wish someone would find me And help me gain control Before I lose my reason And my soul He's King Midas with a curse He's King Midas in reverse He's King Midas with a curse He's King Midas in reverse He's King Midas with a curse He's King Midas in reverse He's King Midas with a curse He's King Midas in reverse |

Saturday night I was downtown
Working for the FBI Sitting in a nest of bad men Whiskey bottles piling high Bootlegging boozer on the west side Full of people who are doing wrong Just about to call up the DA man When I heard this woman singing a song A pair of 45's made me open my eyes My temperature started to rise She was a long cool woman in a black dress Just a 5'9" beautiful tall With just one look I was a bad mess 'Cause that long cool woman had it all Woo! I saw her head up to the table With a tall walking big black cat Well, Charlie said "I hope that you're able, boy 'Cause I'm telling you she knows where it's at" When suddenly we heard the sirens And everybody started to run I jumped down and across the table When I heard somebody shooting a gun Well, the DA was pumping my left hand And then she was a-holding my right Well, I told her "Don't get scared 'Cause you're gonna be spared" Well I've gotta be forgiven If I wanna spend my living With a long cool woman in a black dress Just a 5'9" beautiful tall Well, with just one look I was a bad mess 'Cause that long cool woman had it all Had it all, had it all Had it all, had it all Had it all, had it all |

If I could make a wish
I think I'd pass Can't think of anything I need No cigarettes, no sleep No light, no sound Nothing to eat, no books to read Making love with you Has left me peaceful, warm, and tired What more could I ask? There's nothing left to be desired Peace came upon me, and it leaves me weak So sleep, silent angel, go to sleep Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe And to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Yes, to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Peace came upon me, and it leaves me weak So sleep, silent angel, go to sleep Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe And to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Yes, to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe And to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Yes, to love you All I need is the air that I breathe And to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Yes, to love you All I need is the air that I breathe |

What is this feeling, confusing me more and more I'm out of control and my body is oh so unsure Don't understand what's happened to me This is not how it should be Everyday the world gets harder to face For these loving arms there's no better place Emotions, running away with me Changing me endlessly, affecting my gravity Emotions, taking me up and down Turning my life around, Stealing my energy (Take, keep, holding, feel the gravity, Got no energy, changing endlessly) I search for solutions, no hope for conclusions, I'm torn What is this life about, I can't work out why I was born Ooh, don't know what is this thought, is the power of thought in me It's a strange reaction, but I never fekt this way before It seems to have a life of its own It goes on and on and on Emotions, running away with me Changing me endlessly, affecting my gravity Emotions, taking me up and down Turning my life around, Stealing my energy (Take, keep, holding, feel the gravity, Got no energy, changing endlessly) |

Did you lie, when you said you'd always be there for me Did you care, when I said I'd walk out the door Now is it me, or are things not how they used to be 'Cos deep in side, I'm feeling so unsure Now I could run away and hide But I'm still here by your side But every time I try to say goodbye, you find a way to make me change my mind Tell me how can I be sure your love is strong I don't want to make the same mistake, there's only so much pain a heart can take But every time I tell myself I can't go on, you prove me wrong When you dream, am I still the one in your fantasy When we touch, does it feel the same as before 'Cos all I know is I can't give up so easily There are times when I'm feeling insecure Now I could run away tonight But I'm still here by your side But every time I try to say goodbye, you find a way to make me change my mind Tell me how can I be sure your love is strong I don't want to make the same mistake, there is only so much pain a heart can take But every time I tell myself I can't go on, you prove me wrong Prove me wrong, prove me wrong, Prove me wrong, prove me wrong Now I could run away tonight But I'm still here by your side Every time I try to say goodbye, you find a way to make me change my mind Tell me how can I be sure your love is strong I don't want to make the same mistakes, there is only so much pain a heart can take But every time I tell myself I can't go on, you prove me wrong Prove me wrong You know I can't go on You know I can't go on You prove me wrong How can I tell myself, you prove me wrong |

Look at us, we've come so far Every road travelled says who we are Like a tide, we rise and fall We sail on, through the storm, So many changes in my life Every precious moment has a sacrifice There were times when I stood alone I found the strength to carry on And when I thought the walls were closing in around me Oh baby you were my fight I was standing in the dark waiting for the light to shine on me When you came into my life like a thousand angels watching over me Well I have nowhere left to go And I can't take it any more You were right there in front of me Now I'm holding out my heart, giving all I've got 'Cos you're part of me, let it shine on me In a time where worlds collide So many teardrops from a strangers eyes There's an answer inside of you Close your eyes, see the truth Just when you think the walls are closing in around you Oh baby I'll be your fight I was standing in the dark waiting for the light to shine on me When you came into my life like a thousand angels watching over me Well I have nowhere left to go And I can't take it any more You were right there in front of me Now I'm holding out my heart, giving all I've got 'Cos you're part of me, let it shine on me You don't need to hide in the shadows alone All you have to do is stand up, you're not on your own Take a look around you babe Well I have nowhere left to go And I can't take it any more You were right there in front of me I was standing in the dark waiting for the light to shine on me When you came into my life like a thousand angels watching over me Let it shine on me I was standing in the dark waiting for the light to shine on me When you came into my life like a thousand angels watching over me |

Walk on a lonely street, Don't know where I am, I don't understand Lost in the wilderness And I burn for you In the solitude No matter where I go I can't forget Sometimes I wish we'd never met You're my weakness In the middle of the night And I wonder who you're dreamin of You're my weakness And as hard as I fight Lying here without you And I'm feeling like the end of the world The end of the world My heart is an empty place full of memories That I can't erase Time could be standing still And for all I know It forever will Without my arms around you I feel cold In deep and losing all control You're my weakness In the middle of the night And I wonder who you're dreamin of You're my weakness And as hard as I fight Lying here without you And I'm feeling like the end of the world Give me a reason to give up on you I'm watchin and waitin for shooting stars To shine on you You're my weakness In the middle of the night And I wonder who you're dreamin of You're my weakness And as hard as I fight Lying here without you Lying here without you |
