I've never seen you looking so lovely as you did tonight I've never seen you shine so bright I've never seen so many men ask you if you wanted to dance They're looking for a little romance given half a chance And I've never seen that dress you're wearing Or that highlights in your hair that catch your eyes I have been blind CHORUS The lady in red is dancing with me Cheek to cheek There's nobody here It's just you and me It's where I wanna be But I hardly know this beauty by my side I'll never forget the way you look tonight I've never seen you looking so gorgeous as you did tonight I've never seen you shine so bright you were amazing I've never seen so many people want to be there by your side And when you turned to me and smiled it took my breath away And I have never had such a feeling such a feeling of complete And utter love, as I do tonight CHORUS I never will forget the way you look tonight The lady in red My lady in red 빨간 옷을 입은 여인 그대가 오늘밤처럼 이렇게 사랑스러워 보인적이 없었어요 결코 당신이 그렇게 환해보인적이 없었어요 이렇게 많은 남자들이 그대와 함께 춤을 추고싶어하는 것을 본적이 없었어요 가능성은 별로 없어보여도 그들은 약간의 로맨스를 원한 것 같군요 그대가 입을 그 멋진 드레스를 본적이 없었어요 그대 눈을 황홀하게 빛내는 그대 머리카락도 나는 눈이 멀어있었어요 빨간옷을 입을 여인은 나와 같이 춤을 추고 있어요 서로 뺨을 맞대고 주위엔 아무도 없답니다 오직 그대와 나뿐 내가 원하던 곳이지요 그러나 난 내곁에 있는 이 아름다운 여인을 알지 못하죠 난 오늘밤 그대의 아름다운 모습을 결코 잊을 수 없어요 그대 오늘밤처럼 그렇게 멋있게 보인적이 없어요 그대 이렇게 화사하게 빛나보인적이 없었어요 그렇게 많은 남자들이 그대곁에 있고 싶어하는 것을 본적이 없었어요 그대 고개돌려 내게 미소지을 때 난 숨을 쉴 수가 없었지요 난 그렇게 완벽한 기분을 느낀 적이 없었어요 순전한 사랑을,,오늘밤처럼, 난 오늘밤 당신 모습을 잊을 수 없어요 빨간 옷을 입은 여인 빨간옷의 나의 여인이여 |

it's a rainy night in paris,
and the harbour lights are low, he must leave his love in paris, before the winter snow; on a lonely street in paris, he held her close to say, "we'll meet again in paris, when there are flowers on champs-elysees..." "how long" she said "how long, and will your love be strong, when you're across the sea, will your heart remember me? ..." then she gave him words to turn to, when the winter nights were long, "nous serons encore amoureux, avec les couleurs de printemps..." "and then "she said "and then, our love will grow again," ah but in her eyes he sees, her words of love are only words to please... and now the lights of paris, grow dim and fade away, and I know by the lights of paris, I will never see her again... |

A spaceman came travelling on his ship from afar,
'Twas light years of time since his mission did start, And over a village he halted his craft, And it hung in the sky like a star, just like a star... He followed a light and came down to a shed, Where a mother and child were lying there on a bed, A bright light of silver shone round his head, And he had the face of an angle, and they were afraid... Then the stranger spoke, he said "Do not fear, I come from a planet a long way from here, And I bring a message for mankind to hear," And suddenly the sweetest music filled the air... And it went La La... Peace and goodwill to all men, and love for the child... This lovely music went trembling through the ground, And many were wakened on hearing that sound, And travellers on the road, the village they found, By the light of that ship in the sky, which shone all round... And just before dawn at the paling of the sky, The stranger returned and said "Now I must fly, When two thousand years of your time has gone by, This song will begin once again, to a baby's cry..." And it went La La ... This song will begin once again To a baby's cry... And it goes La La... Peace and goodwill to all men, and Love for the child... Oh the whole world is waiting, waiting to hear the song again, There are thousands standing on the edge of the world, And a star is moving somewhere, the time is nearly here, This song will begin once again, to a baby's cry... |

"What do I do next?" said the Bishop to the Priest,
"I have spent my whole life waiting, preparing for the Feast, And now you say Jerusalem has fallen and is lost, The King of Heathen Saracen has seized the holy cross." Then the Priest said "Oh my Bishop, we must put them to the sword, For God in all his mercy will find a just reward, For the Noblemen and sinners, and Knights of ready hand Who will be the Lord's Crusader, send word throughout all the land, Jerusalem is lost, Jerusalem is lost, Jerusalem is lost;" "Tell me what to do", said the King upon his throne, "but speak to me in whispers for we are not alone, They tell me that Jerusalem has fallen to the hand Of some bedevilled Eastern heathen who has seized the Holy land;" Then the Chamberlain said "Lord, we must call upon our foes In Spain and France and Germany to end our bitter wars, All Christian men must be as one and gather for the fight, You will be their leader, begin the battle cry, Jerusalem is lost, Jerusalem is lost, Jerusalem is lost"... Ooh, high on a hill, in the town of Jerusalem, There stood Saladin, the King of the Saracens, Whoring and drinking and snoring and sinking, around him his army lay, Secure in the knowledge that they had won the day; A messenger came, blood on his feet and a wound in his chest, "The Christians are coming!" he said, "I have seen their Cross in the West," In a rage Saladin struck him down with his knife And he said "I know that this man lies, They quarrel too much, the Christians could never unite! I am invincible, I am the King, I am invincible, and I will win..." I will win Close they came, the army of Richard the Lionheart, Marching by day and night, with soldiers from every part, And when the Crusaders came over the mountain and they saw Jerusalem, They fell to their knees and prayed for her release; They started the battle at dawn, taking the city by storm, With horsemen and bowmen and engines of war, They broke through the city walls, The Heathens were flying and screaming and dying, And the Christian swords were strong, And Saladin ran when he heard their victory song; "We are invincible, God is the King, We are invincible, and we will win!" "What do I do now?" said the Wiseman to the Fool, "I have spent my whole life waiting, to find the Golden Rule, Though centuries have disappeared, the memory still remains Of those enemies together, could it be that way again?" Then the Fool said "Oh you Wise men, you really make me laugh, With your talk of vast persuasion and searching through the past, There is only greed and evil in the men that fight today, The Song of the Crusader has long since gone away, Jerusalem is lost, Jerusalem is lost, Jerusalem is lost... Jerusalem." |

Well my furrows are filled with corn,
I have my woman to keep me warm, But there's one thing that I do fear, That Eastern wind is getting near, There's a shotgun beside my bed, This is my country, where I was born and bred, But I am sure, as the willow will grow, That Eastern wind is going to blow, Blowing a hole in my life, Eastern wind, Running away with my life, Eastern wind; There's a woman who reads the stars, She sees Warlords on the planet Mars, And she said, "Boy, you'd better beware, That restless wind is getting near, Blowing a hole in your life, Eastern wind, Running away with your life, Eastern wind..." They are coming, they are coming, they are coming, look out! In my dream, I saw a crowd, They were burning the palace down, I saw a mad old man, and I ran to the door, And then that wind began to roar, And when they come, they'll find me here, I will not run, they will not see my fear, And I will fight to the very end, Before that wind I will never bend, If they're blowing a hole in my life, Eastern wind, Oh running away with my life, Eastern wind, Taking the plough from my hands, Eastern wind, Taking every bit of my land, Eastern wind... |

We're sitting out here on the runway,
Waiting for the plane to leave, And the Captain says, "There'll be a short delay, Bear with me please," They gave us the usual hassle, "You can't take those guitars on board," But the boys in the band just smiled, Heard it all before, And as they're starting to serve Champagne To the folks at the front of the plane, I can hear the engines roaring, we're on our way, And we are flying home, I feel the freedom in my soul, Flying home at last; Flying home, I've got the freedom in my soul, And it's four in the morning, My world is calling, Speeding through the universe tonight... The movie reminds of my lady, As she waits, "where are those guys?" Yes it's nice to see old Butch and Sundance in the sky, And now the sun is beginning to rise, It's like looking down on Paradise, There's a ball of fire that's burning, giving life, And we are flying home, I feel the freedom in my soul, Flying home at last; Flying home, I've got the freedom in my soul, And it's four in the morning, My world is calling, Speeding through the universe tonight... |

In a country churchyard there's a preacher with his people
Gathered all around to join a man and woman, Spring is here and turtle doves are singing from the steeple, Bees are in the flowers, growing in the graveyard, And over the hill, where the river meets the mill, A lovely girl is coming down To give her hand upon her wedding day. Dressed in simple white and wearing flowers in her hair, Music as she walks slowly to the altar, And picking up his Bible then the Preacher turns towards her, "Will you take this man to be your wedded husband, to honour and love in the eyes of god above, Now let the peoble sing with me These words to live forever in your heart... Let your love shine on For we are the stars in the sky, Let your love shine strong Until the day you fly away" Many years have fallen on that golden country morning, The graveyard's overgrown, the church lies in ruins, Ivy on the walls and ravens wheeling round above me As I made my way towards the last remaining headstone, I fell to my knees, read the lines beneath the leaves, And suddenly it seemed to me I heard the words like singing in the trees... Let your love shine on For we are the stars in the sky, Let your love shine strong Until the day you fly... Let your love shine on For we are the stars in the sky, Let your love shine strong Until the day you fly... Fly away... |

Dennis is a menace
With his "Anyone for tennis?" And he'd beseech me to come keep the score. And Maude said, "Oh Lord, I'm so terribly bored" I really can't stand it anymore... I'm going...out to dinner, With a gorgeous singer, To a little place I know, Down by the key. Her name is Patricia, She calls herself Delicia And the reason isn't Very hard to see. She said, God made her a sinner Just to keep those fat men thinner As they tumble down in heaps Before her feet. They hang around in groups Like battle weary troops, One can often see the Queue right down the street. Because Patricia Or Delicia Not only is a singer She also removes all her clothing For Patricia, Is the best stripper in town... And with a swing of her hips, She started to strip To tremendous applause She took of her drawers And with a lick of her lips She undid all her clips, Threw it all in the air And everyone stared And as the last piece of clothing Fell to the floor, The police were banging on the door On a Saturday night, In 1924 Take it away boys... Well, Patricia was arrested And everyone detested, The terrible manner in which she was exposed Later on in court where everybody thought A summer's run in jail would be proposed.. But the judge said, "Patricia, Or may I say Delicia, The facts of this case lie before me (knock, knock, knock) Case dismissed... This girl was in her working clothes... And with a swing of her hips, She started to strip To tremendous applause She took off her drawers And with a lick of her lips She undid all her clips, Threw it all in the air And everyone stared And as the last piece of clothing Fell to the floor, The police were yelling out for more (more) On a Saturday night In 1924 |

Oh my love the evening light is catching colours in your eyes,
Take another glass of wine and bring your body next to mine; Tell me all the things you've done since you went away this morning, Oh these quiet moments make my day, we must never let them slip away... People everywhere the same, they're so busy they don't get together, So these quiet moments make my day, just to sit with you and drift away... |

Underneath a silver moon, the ship is like a ghost,
She's been out there for a week, just waiting for the wind to blow, But now she's off and running, and there's nothing I can do, 'Cos I am just a prisoner here until this war is through, And I'm singing, Sailor, can you hear me, Sailor, hear my call, Sailor, take me with you, Sailor, take me home... Yesterday I saw a sea bird wheeling light and low, Then she sailed off to the west Like she was telling me the way to go, If I had her wings my love I'd be with you tonight, But my last hope has gone, it's drifting out of sight, Wait for me, Oh Sailor, take me to her, Sailor, take me home... To feel the wind, to see the sky, To hear the waves breaking on the shore again, To be with you, to lie with you, To hear your voice echo through the hills again, Oh my darling wait for me, 'cos I will be there, When it is over, when it is over, Yes I will return one day, Sailor, take me to her, Oh Sailor, take me home, Sailor, can you hear me, Sailor, hear my call, Sailor, Sailor... |

There's a Spanish train that runs between
Guadalquivir and old Seville, And at dead of night the whistle blows, And people hear she's running still... And then they hush their children back to sleep, Lock the doors, upstairs they creep, For it is said that the souls of the dead Fill that train ten thousand deep!! Well a railwayman lay dying with his people by his side, His family were crying, knelt in prayer before he died, But above his head just a-waiting for the dead, Was the Devil with a twinkle in his eye, "Well God's not around and look what I've found, this one's mine!!" Just then the Lord himself appeared in a blinding flash of light, And shouted at the devil, "Get thee hence to endless night!!" But the Devil just grinned and said "I may have sinned, But there's no need to push me around, I got him first so you can do your worst, He's going underground!!" "But I think I'll give you one more chance" Said the Devil with a smile, "So throw away that stupid lance, It's really not your style", "Joker is the name, Poker is the game, We'll play right here on this bed, And then we'll bet for the biggest stakes yet, The souls of the dead!!" And I said "Look out, Lord, he's going to win, The sun is down and the night is riding in, That train is dead on time, many souls are on the line, Oh Lord, he's going to win!.." Well the railwayman he cut the cards and he dealt them each a hand of five And for the Lord he was praying hard Or that train he'd have to drive... Well the Devil he had three aces and a king, And the Lord, he was running for a straight, He had the queen and the knave and the nine and ten of spades, All he needed was the eight... And then the Lord he called for one more card, But he drew the diamond eight, And the Devil said to the son of God, "I believe you've got it straight, So deal me one for the time has come To see who'll be the king of this place, But as he spoke, from beneath his cloak, He slipped another ace... Ten thousand souls was the opening bid, And it soon went up to fifty-nine, But the Lord didn't see what the Devil did, and he said "that suits me fine", "I'll raise you high to hundred and five, And forever put an end to your sin", But the Devil let out a mighty shout, "My hand wins!!" And I said "Lord, oh Lord, you let him win, The sun is down and the night is riding in, That train is dead on time, many souls are on the line, Oh Lord, don't let him win... "Well that Spanish train still runs between, Guadalquivir and old Seville, And at dead of night the whistle blows, And people fear she's running still... And far away in some recess The Lord and the Devil are now playing chess, The Devil still cheats and wins more souls, And as for the Lord, well, he's just doing his best... And I said "Lord, oh Lord, you've got to win, The Sun is down and the night is riding in, That train is still on time, Oh my soul is on the line, Oh Lord, you've got to win..." |

I'd like you to meet my last queen,
over there large as life She's been hanging there for almost a week, my poor late wife; What do think of the colour of her skin, it has the bloom of the rose, You see she begged me to bring a certain painter in, and for that picture in her bedroom she would pose; Well after a while he was driving me mad, as you could well understand, Sitting in there, day after day, with my wife in the palm of his hand... It was - "Madam please do this and Madam please do that", You've never heard such display, But he didn't mind he was taking his time, it was me that had to pay, "Madam I think we should take a walk in the woods, you understand it's the light", And did I mind, no, I was so kind when they, came back in the middle of the night, and I swear I'll take care of the painter, Oh the painter... Well as you can see it was hard for me, but something has to be done, She only has eyes for him and his lies, and as for me, not a glance, not a single one; My orders were severe and she disappeared, it really was such a shame, And when they told me she was dead I broke down and said, "It's that painter, it's him, he's to blame." With his "Madam please do this and Madam please do that", You've never heard such display, But he didn't mind he was taking his time, it was me that had to pay, "Oh Madam I think we should take a walk in the woods, you understand it's the light", And did I mind, no, I was so kind when they came back in the middle of the night, And I hope it's the rope for the painter, When he's found, it's hellbound for the painter, I'll get that painter... |

Down in the jungle, you can hear a rumble,
Way up the Himalayas, in a Mexican bodega, Something is going on, People are coming, running round the world, There's no way to avoid them, they're everywhere, You can see them on the streets of London town; They've found a tourist attraction, It's a bobby on the beat, Yes a tourist attraction, They're all looking at his feet, And the blue rinse ladies, Shooting cameras from the hip, Doing Europe in two days, "We've had a wonderful trip!" And he turns to the Palace, You can almost hear him say, "Your Majesty why don't you tell them, Please go away!" Tourist attraction, tourist attraction, tourist attraction; Caribbean island, cool drink in my hand, Nearest thing to Paradise, the native girls are very nice; Something is going wrong, People are coming, running down the beach, Cameras at the ready, get out of reach, Time to grab my things, I'm heading for the hills; They've found a tourist attraction, Yes my little hideaway It's a tourist attraction, it will never be the same, There's a big bus driver taking money on the side, "Everybody stick together and please follow the guide," And way over yonder, they hear somebody yell, "I came here for the peace and quiet, y'all go to hell!" Tourist attraction, tourist attraction, tourist attraction, tourist attraction... |

It's five past dreams, I should be home asleep,
But I just want to keep this moment alive, it's just you and I, And I can't deny that I've had too much to drink tonight, But everybody's gone, and we're still going strong, Thinking of bed, dancing instead, you're lovely in red; And we are moving cheek to cheek, and I know that I'm with The only one who makes it right, it's in your eyes, and your smile, And the way you look tonight; It's five past dreams, the world is waking up, just like I should Have done a long time ago, maybe I'm slow, I just didn't know, That the saviour of my heart is right here, in my arms, you are The one who makes it right with your eyes, and your smile, And the way you look tonight; And I know that I'm with the only one who makes it right, It's in your eyes, and your smile, and the way you look tonight; With your eyes, and the way you look tonight. |

Only a word before you go, everyone's waiting; So many friends to say goodbye, so many tears they'll have to cry, So many wings to help you fly where you are going; And now a plane must take away my child that life has found, And you will be up in the sky, and I'll be on the ground, Sending my love with you tonight; I will be waiting, I will be waiting, here for you, here for you; I don't know where the years have gone, Suddenly here, and you have grown, It was like only yesterday when you were so young; But here is the day we had to see, always the same eternally, This is the way that it must be, now it is your world; And so a plane must take away my child that time has found, And you will be up in the sky, and I'll be on the ground, Sending my dreams with you tonight; I will be waiting.....I'm trying not to show, But seeing you go, is the hardest thing that I have known; I will be waiting, don't worry 'bout me, I'll be alright * I will be waiting, don't worry 'bout me, I'll be alright, Here for you, here for you, I don't know where the years have gone..... |

Kiss me from a distance,
Hold me in your arms, Tell me that you love me, Whisper in the dark The words I long to hear When you are lying in your bed And though you're far away You will be with me here instead. When I hold you in my dreams tonight, when I hold you in my dreams tonight. Kiss me from a distance, Listen to my voice, Soon I will be with you, Standing at your door. The moon and my imagination Shimmer in your head, Your arms are reaching up for me, I slip into your bed. When I hold you in my dreams tonight, when I hold you in my dreams tonight. The moon and my imagination Shimmer in your head, Your lips are reaching up for me, I slip into your bed. When I hold you in my dreams tonight, when I hold you in my dreams tonight. When I hold you in my dreams tonight, when I hold you in my dreams tonight. Kiss me from a distance, (in my dreams tonight), Kiss me from a distance, (in my dreams tonight), Kiss me from a distance, (in my dreams tonight). |

Chris De Burgh - Read My Name
For every child that has been born There is a chance to shine, And everyone can have a dream Until the end of time, So live for every moment As the world keeps turning round, And lift your hands up to the sky And say it loud and proud, "I have been here, Read my name, Read my name! " For every child that has been born There is a chance in life, To try it all and be someone With what we have inside, So don't give up and don't give in, Just give it all instead, And raise your voice above the crowd And let them know You've said "I have been here, Read my name, Read my name; With all I've got I've taken part, I've made a difference to the world, I have been here Just read my name!" Endlessly amazing and inventive that we are, We dive the deepest oceans and We reach out for the stars, And one day there will be a man Across the universe, Who'll say "I come from Planet Earth" and these will be his words; "I have been here, Read my name, Read my name; With all I've got I've taken part, I've made a difference to the world, I have been here, Just read my name !" And when the darkness has to fall And comes the end of days, Then lift your hands up to the sky And say it once again..... "I have been here and I have taken part, I've made a difference to the world I have been here, Just read my name!" "I have been here... Just read my name. I've taken part..... Reach for the stars, Across the universe... We come from Planet Earth." |

Hear my voice and listen well, and a story I will tell,
How duty brought a broken heart, and why a love so strong Must fall apart; She was lovely, she was fine, daughter of a royal line, He, no equal, but for them it mattered little for they were in love; Rose of England, sweet and fair, shining with the sun, Rose of England, have a care, for where the thorn is, There the blood will run; Oh my heart, oh my heart; Through the summer days and nights, stolen kisses and delights Would thrill their hearts and fill their dreams with all emotions That true love can bring; But black of mourning came one day, when her sister passed away, And many said on bended knee, she has gone, and you must be our Queen; Rose of England, sweet and fair, shining with the sun, Rose of England, have a care, for where the thorn is, There the blood will run; Oh my heart, oh my heart; To the abbey she did ride, with her lover by her side, When they heard the church bells ring, she was Queen And one day, he'd be King; But men of malice, men of hate, protesting to her chambers came, "A foreign prince will have your hand, for he'll bring peace And riches to our land;" She said, "Do you tell me that I cannot wed the one I love? Do you tell me that I am not mistress of my heart?" And so with heavy weight of life she kissed her lover one last time, "This land I wed, and no man comes, for if I cannot have you, I'll have none;" Rose of England, sweet and fair, shining with the sun, Rose of England have a care, for where the thorn is, There the blood will run; Oh my heart, oh my heart. |

Snow is falling, snow is falling on the ground,
In the forest, in the forest there's no sound; A shallow grave is where we lie, The boys and men who died, And snow is falling on the ground, And we are calling to be found; And the seasons, and the seasons come and go, In the springtime, birds will sing and flowers grow, At summer's end, the autumn breeze, Will whisper through the trees, And leaves are falling on the ground, And we are calling to be found; And in our homes, so many tears, They don't know where we have gone, And snow is falling on the ground, And we are calling to be found, We are calling to be found...... |

I heard a voice so pure and easy, a songbird singing for me,
I had no choice, only to listen, and surrender to her world; And she will fly over the rainbow, She will walk in fields of gold, And when she sings from the high walls of Heaven, Will the angels cry like me? At first alone, then with hundreds around me, Enchanted by her song, But as the day is done, and the darkness is falling, The songbird sings no more; And now she flies over the rainbow, And she walks in fields of gold, And when she sings from the high walls of Heaven, Will the angels cry like me? And when she sings from the high walls of Heaven, Will the angels cry like me, will the angels cry like me? |

Go with love upon your journey, go with wonder in your heart,
May the light be there to guide you through the terrors of the dark, You have always been a good friend, but I won't know when you Have arrived, and I wish that I could see you one more time; There's a rainbow on the water, there's an eagle in the sky, Can you hear me up where you are, can you see me when I cry? You have left so much behind you, all the love you have given life, And I wish that I could hold you one more time; And they are always here beside us in a parallel point of view, And still they call, the ones who've gone before, Will you take me by the hand when I come through? You have left so much behind you, all the love you have given life, And I wish that I could hold you one more time; Yes they are always here beside us, in a parallel point of view, I hear them call, the ones who've gone before, Will you bring me to the light when I come through ? Go with love upon your journey, go with wonder in your heart, May there be someone beside you, who can hold you in the dark, When you get down to the river, don't pay him till the other side, And I wish that I could see you one more time, how I wish that I Could see you one more time. Go with love upon your journey. |

I feel the wind blowing through my doorway,
It's telling me that the summer's gone, And the winter waits in shadow, waiting with the storm; I am old and my bones are weary, And my son he is all I have, But he has gone to fight for freedom, leaving with my heart; All my life I have loved this land, worked it with my hands, But can this freedom send the rain when seed is in the ground, Can this freedom heal the pain and bring my boy back to me again? Oh oh oh.... I watched them sail from the rocks below me, 'Twas like the sea in its endless rage, Many fall on the road to freedom, dying on the stones; All my life I have loved this land, worked it with my hands, But can your freedom send the rain when seed is in the ground, Can your freedom heal the pain and bring my boy back to me again? Oh oh oh.... Late last night, as the world was sleeping, I dreamed my boy, He was calling out, 'cos he was lost in some dark forest, and Snow was falling down, falling on the ground......ooh..... |

There are those who think that love comes
With a lifetime guarantee, But we know from those around us, That this may not always be, It's the simple things That come between A father and a son, But when they try to talk, The knives are out Before they have begun; Well that was me, And I have seen The light that shines for eternity, Because I learned to say The words "I love you;" So many hearts have been broken By the lies of history, And so many arms are still open For that final mystery; We must show respect For all the rest, And what a man believes, And the one who died Upon the cross, Well he is the one for me, And he said "Come with me And you will see The light that shines for eternity, Be strong and learn to say The words "I love you;" And this endless road that we are on Just keeps on going round, But there's one destination That always is here to be found; So come with me, And you will see The light that shines for eternity, Be strong and learn to say The words "I love you," Be strong and learn to say The words "I love you," The words "I love you," The words "I love you," The words "I love you." |

Una mesa para dos, vino tinto de la casa,
Esta noche vaya con amor! This is the place to be on a night like this, The moon is shining on the silver sea where lovers kiss, So many times it was you and me, oh it's good to be here again, It brings back the memories of what you mean to me; This is the way to be on a night so fine, Everybody's on the walking street, with Spanish wine, And then we call into that little place where we had Those long romantic nights, and drink to the memories, And what you mean to me; And it has been such a long old road to where we are today, And just like all the rest there is a price we must pay, But we've been through all the bad times, and we've seen off All the sad times, and here we are, stronger than yesterday; So let's go back to our favourite place, For another long romantic night, And drink to these memories, and what you mean to me; Mas la Plana de Barcelona, Y Rioja, Vega Sicilia, Dos botellas - por favor! So here we are in that little place for another long romantic night, Let's drink to memories, and what you mean to me; Here's to the memories, and what you mean to me.

The cafe's are all deserted
The streets are wet again There's nothing quite like An out of season holiday town in the rain When the tourists go And the cold winds blow And my girl is on a plane Home I'm never gonna love another The way I have loved you It's taken me a little while to discover Now I know it's true But fatal hesitation Made me miss the show Ooooooh, Romeo is standing in the rain And I know that I have let her slip away Fatal hesitation, fatal hesitation I saw you again this morning Walking down the beach And though you are a thousand miles away You were only just out of reach When I got up close and I saw her face I knew it couldn't be so No, nooooooo Ooooooh, Romeo is standing in the rain And I know that I have let her slip away Fatal hesitation, fatal hesitation I'm gonna get on my boat and sail away Ooooooh, Romeo is standing in the rain And I know that I have let her slip away Fatal hesitation, fatal hesitation I'm gonna read a little Shakespeare And get her outta my head It doesn't matter anymore Gonna miss her just a little bit Just a little bit |

When I touch you I can feel you shivering
I can feel your heart is beating fast We are alone in this crowded room Oh tonight there is something happening And it's something that should never be But there's a flame over you and me And I can see the fire on water I can see the light shining in your eyes I know that I can't stop it now 'Cos I've been caught in the heat of the sun... There's a place and an ancient fortress High above the worries of the world I'd love you there for a long, long time And we'll discover all our deepest secrets And let the spirit go flying free Until the dawn breaks over the sea It's burning like fire on the water I can see the light shining in your eyes I know that I can't stop it now 'Cos I've been caught in the heat of the sun Yes I've been caught in the heat of the sun Oh let it shine on me And I can see the fire on the water I can see the light shining in your eyes I know that I can't stop it now 'Cos I've been caught in the heat of the sun Yes I've been caught in the heat of the sun Oh let it shine on me And I can see the fire on the water Can't stop it now... |

This is for Rosanna, sweet girl of mine,
A song for the baby who changed my life, I'll never forget when I saw you first, I thought that my heart would burst, With the love that I have. As I watch you sleeping in here tonight, And I hear your breathing so soft and light, I cannot believe all the things that I feel, When I hold you next to me, It's the love that I have. Oh how my heart it is shining, Oh how my heart it is shining, Oh how my heart is shining through, With the love that I have. And as you are growing from baby to child, I share the wonders that are in your eyes, And I am amazed at the way you change, All according to the plan, And the love that I have. And when you are older you will go away, You'll see injustice and you'll see pain, But never forget that I'm always there, Like a shadow by your side, With the love that I have. Oh my love, you have your mother's eyes, And when I see you laugh, you have your mother's smile, And you are mine all of my life, You are mine, all of my love, You are mine, blood of my blood, You are mine. Oh how my heart it is shining, Oh how my heart it is shining, Oh how my heart it is shining through, With the love that I have. |

Last night i was walking through the harbour
Where the fishing boats are lying on the shore, The news had travelled fast and everyone went to be Where the mayor was making a speech, And the crowd started cheering When he talked about the glory of it all, And the boys coming home from the war; Last night, they were dancing in the streets And making music in the alleyways and bars, From a house down in the old town came the sound of guitars, Margarita was waiting inside, With her long black hair hanging down beneath the red light, And she smiled, for the boys coming home from the war, The boys coming home from the war; And they said we were heroes, they said we were fine, We were kings in command, we had god on our side, And we said "nothing will make us change in any way, Since yesterday - we're just the same, Since yesterday - nothing has changed, Since yesterday - we're just the same," But i can feel there's a new kind of hunger inside, To be satisfied, i saw it there last night; Last night i was walking through the shadows Far away from all the music and the girls, When i saw a soldier with a woman in black, And they stood without any word, Just staring at a photograph of someone, and she began to cry. For a boy left behind in the war, Some boy left behind in the war; And they said we were heroes, they said we were fine, We were kings in command, we had god on our side, And we said "nothing will make us change in any way, Since yesterday - we're just the same, Since yesterday - nothing has changed, Since yesterday - we're just the same," But i can feel there's this new kind of hunger inside, To be satisfied, i saw it there last night... |

We took a boat over Lake Geneva.
It was raining all night long, We were lucky and we saw no enemy, And came from Switzerland poor refugees, Far from the guns of war, We said goodbye to it all; They brought us in to a nurse's station, Half a mile behind the lines, Oh Lord, how my heart was breaking, To see the children, and the walking wounded, Hoping for a ticket home, And say goodbye to it all; I woke up on a cold blue morning, To see her there, standing right beside me, Long years since I left her at the borderline, And how she found me I'd never know, But we decided there and then, To say goodbye to it all; Say goodbye to it all, Say goodbye to it all.... Took a train from Paris to the ocean, Found a small hotel by the coast, As we walked along the beaches of Normandy, We came to Juno, Omaha and Gold, And whispered a prayer for the boys, Who said goodbye to it all; Now we've got our own place by the water, And I have a job in the old hotel, She is ready and she's hoping for a daughter, Well I don't mind, we've made our choice. We've got all the time in the world, We said goodbye to it all, We said goodbye to it all. Say goodbye to it all, Say goodbye to it all, Say goodbye to it all, Say goodbye to it all. |

In the Ballroom of Romance, there's a rock band playing,
People swaying to the beat, swaying in the heat, In the corner over there by the door is a local casanova, Yelling for another scotch, "hey, steady on the rocks!" And when the girl walked in, a complete unknown, There was mass confusion, this beauty was alone, And then the room began to shimmer, Every heart was beating fast, Every man who had to win her, Was moving fast, they said, I'm ready, I'm ready for romance, I'm ready for romance is here at last; In the Ballroom of Romance, there's a young man waiting, Standing looking over at the scene, it could be you or me, Every eye in the room was watching as she walked over to him, Whispered "do you want to come with me, I'm heading for the beach." In her BMW 635, going smooth at 90, feeling good to be alive, And then the moon began to shimmer, Hey the sea was roaring in, Just one kiss and then his heart Began to sing, he said I'm ready, I'm ready for romance, I'm ready for romance is here at last; Hey the moon began to shimmer, And the sea was roaring in, The last thing I remember Was her kiss, I said I'm ready, I'm ready for romance, I'm ready, I'm ready for romance, I said I'm ready, I'm ready for romance, I'm ready for romance is here at last! In the Ballroom of Romance In the Ballroom of Romance In the Ballroom of Romance In the Ballroom of Romance I'm ready! Life goes on, same old song Life goes on, and love grows strong... |

i looked to the north, and i turned to the west,
for a sign, a light in the sky, oh the message is clear, that the time is near, for a leader to come again; a circle of stones on the head of a hill, tonight is where it will be, in this desolate place, we all stand and wait, for a leader to come again, yes a leader will come again; for it is written, that a leader will be here, and then a vision, left me blinded by the light, and it started right in front of my eyes... |

I'm chasing a shadow, I can't see a thing,
It's dipping and diving like a bird on the wing, And every time I get near it just seems to slip away; There's a fighter inside who will never give up, We are what we are and it's never enough, Write the words in the sand that this man will come again; You may run from the sea, and the words disappear, Oh you may fall to your knees, But the power is here, to survive; It's shining again, It's shining again - the spirit of man, It's shining again - the spirit of man; Ah remember the first day of man on the moon, The whole world was watching, a whole world in tune, It was hard to believe he was the same as me and you; Oh look back to the future and look down the years, It wasn't all battles and bad news and tears, We have brought to this place a desire to have a dream; We may reach for the stars, and fall from the sky, Oh in the darkest hour the spirit of man comes to life; It's shining again - the spirit of man, It's shining again - the spirit of man, It's shining again - the spirit of man; And we work - aha - for the good things that we can have, Yea we work - aha - for the family and home, Yea we work - aha - for the D-Mark and the dollar, Yea we work - aha - for the woman on the phone, Yea we work - aha - for that moment of elation, Yea we work - aha - for a chance to get away, And we work - aha - just to let imagination, Come inside and take me away; We may reach for the stars, and fall from the sky, Ooh in the darkest hour the spirit of man comes to life; It's shining again - the spirit of man, It's shining again - the spirit of man, It's shining again - the spirit of man. |

The Vision
And I saw a burning chariot, And the four horsemen of the apocalypse, Waiting on high, And I heard the thunder rolling in, And behold our leader on a pale horse riding in the sky; And I saw this land a battlefield, With a hundred thousand men, Fighting hand to hand, And I heard the sounds of victory, And the rivers ran red with the blood of our enemies; And I, I saw fire from the sky, I saw fire, and I saw paradise, (paradise,) Fire from the sun, I saw fire, And I saw Alpha and Omega; Fire, I saw fire, And I saw paradise, (paradise,) Fire, I saw fire; |

I am left in the night, trembling with fear,
I have seen to the future, and the future is here, Our leader will bring victory, but our land is in flames, And as the final sounds of battle disappear, I had to say, What about me, and you, and the ones that we love, What about me, and you, and the ones that we love, Well what about us? |

A woman's heart is filled with passion, A woman's heart is filled with lust, If you don't believe that these things happen, Could be the biggest mistake that a man can make; A woman's night is filled with dreaming, Of the perfect man who may not be you, If we don't see what she's been missing, Could be the biggest mistake that a man can make, She wants to get near to you, Don't turn her away, She wants to get through to you, She wants to say; Give me your night, And i will show you my passion, Give me your lust, And i will drink you dry, Give me your dreams, And i will show you a lover, Give me your heart, And i will hold you close, And i will love you till the day i die. A woman's day is filled with longing, For a little romance and company, If we don't look or just don't listen, Could be the biggest mistake that a man can make; A woman's heart is yours forever, She will be true, to the one in her life, If we don't give her love and affection, Could be the biggest mistake, that a man can make. She wants to get near to you, Don't turn her away, She want's to get through to you, She want's you to say; Give me your night, And i will show you my passion, Give me your lust, And i will drink you dry.... Give me your dreams, And i will show you a lover, Give me your heart, And i will hold you close, And i will love you till the day i die.

Give me your dreams, And i will show you a lover, Give me your heart, And i will hold you close, And i will love you till the day i die. |

I see you everywhere, i see your eyes, i touch your hair,
You took me on a highway to the stars, and left me halfway there; I hold you in my dreams, your tender kiss is never what it seems, 'cos when i wake up in the morning sun, i look, but you're not there; I cannot believe this has happened to me, It's been heaven in your arms, You gave me so much, with an angels touch, And then you took my heart; I see you in the street, and people turning at my running feet, But when i get up close a stranger's eyes, are looking back at me; Oh i cannot believe this has happened to me, Its like heaven for one day. You left me like this with an angels kiss, And then you flew away; I see you everywhere, i see your eyes, i touch your hair, I'm gonna take that highway to the stars, And i will find you there; I see you everywhere, i see you everywhere, I see you everywhere, i see you everywhere.......... Everywhere..... And when i'm looking for you, i'm gonna find you, And when i find you i am, i'm gonna hold you, And when i hold you i am, i'm gonna love you, And when i love you it will, it will be forever....... Everywhere........ I see you.... everywhere..... |

I want it..... Four in the morning and i just can't sleep I've got a craving now for something sweet So i head off for my local all-night supermarket, When i get there, it's deserted; And now i'm standing at the chocolate shelf, Under the sign that says, "help yourself" If you really gotta have it, Then we really gotta sell it to ya This is for people who say.... I want it and i want it now! I want it and i just can't wait! I want it and i want it now. I want it and i will not wait...... I want it.......now I sit at home and when i watch tv, I gotta have remote control with me, Oh and when i'm watching football, I can go to total recall, I got freeze frame, i got slo - mo. This is the way that it was meant to be, You gotta get ready for the century I'm a total modern man, And i got total modern plans And it's so easy when you say..... I want it and i want it now! I want it and i just can't wait! I want it and i want it now. I gotta get a feel to try, gotta get a meal inside, Gotta get a deal tonight, i gotta say.... I want it now, i want it now, i want it now, And i just can't wait.... I want it and i want it now! I want it and i just can't wait! I want it and i want it now. I want it and i will not wait... I want it now, i want it now, i want it now, And i just can't wait I want it now, i want it now, i want it now, And i just can't wait Here it is the new sensation, Listen to the new generation, We want something, we want it now! You don't need no invitation, Listen to the new conversation, We want something, we want it now....... We want it now, |

Living in this fantasy, working with reality,
I have come back here again,to touch the sun and feel the rain, Invitations, conversations,friends to make me strong, I've seen that light, and i watch it shine, living in the world; Well i believe that destiny is written in the darkest sea, With every movement that we make, and every footstep that we take, Inspirations, correlations, where we're meant to be, There's so much more that i want to know,living in the world; Oh-oh still the hunger, oh-oh to see it all, Oh-oh and the wonder of the sunlight in the morning, And the moonlight on the bay, I'm singing now; Oh oh oh oh...oh oh oh oh. Oh oh oh oh, living in the world Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh... Living in the world. Don't believe a word you read, and only half of what you see, 'cos there are those who make it up, just to make that extra buck, And when they write the poison,they will surely get it back, And i'm still here, and i'm gonna stay, living in the world; Oh-oh - in the spotlight, oh-oh - it can be hard, Oh-oh - it's a hotlight, when it's shining on the tough, That's when the tough begin to shine, I'm singing now; Oh oh oh oh...oh oh oh oh. Oh oh oh oh, living in the world, Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh, Living in... the world; I've seen the wonder of the forest in the light, I've seen the miracle of winter birds in flight, I've seen the universe come flashing in the night, Living in the world; And when they call me, i will be waiting, when it's time to go, But i'm not ready yet! Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh, Living in the world, Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh, Living in the world, Living in the world, Living in the world. Living in, living in, living in the world...... |

And he laid her down in a field of corn,
And the sun was on his back, Up above there was, a clear blue sky, She held him by the hand, She had known him since they both were young, He'd been always in her life, And the first time that he had kissed her lips, She knew it deep inside, that this was; Love of a different world, love of the life, Love of the ancient ones, love of the heart divine; Through the long hot days and the summer nights, He was always by her side, Just a boy and girl in an innocent world, before the flanders tide, When the autumn leaves had turned to gold, She would have her wedding day, And the people sang like an angel choir, And everybody said that this was; Love of a different world,love of the life, Love of the ancient ones,love of the heart divine; Then the winter came, and the winds of war were blowing with the snow, And he looked so fine in his uniform, she knew that he must go, When the soldiers left on the morning train, She was waving him goodbye, And as the tears rolled down, for the very first time, The baby kicked inside, and this was; Love of a different world,love of the life, Love of the ancient ones,love of the heart divine; Love of a different world,love of the life, Love of the ancient ones,love of the heart divine. |

My lover is a morning with the sun, Another day with her has just begun, She's waking me up to see her world, My lover is the light; My lover is a chance to play the fool, To shake a lot of trees and break the rules, She's bringing me back the boy inside, My lover gives me time; And all through the days, there are so many ways to love her, Its easy to do, when the heart and the soul are true; My lover has the meaning of success, She's telling me that i can be the best, But if i should fail at least i've tried, My lover has it right; And all through the days, There are so many ways to love her, It's easy to do, when the heart and the soul are true, My lover is a dancer in the dark, Whispering the secrets in her heart, She's opening up to my desire, My lover in the night; She is the morning sun, She's the one, Bringing me back, The boy inside, My lover in the night, My lover is the light, My lover has it right, My lover is my life. |

The only place for miles around, Cutting hair in the modern style, Putting in the nine to five, But, every night it was the same old dream, On the cover of a magazine, She, looked good but it could never come true, 'cos nothing ever happens round here, Nothing ever happens round here; She had a boyfriend in the town, He spent his days just messing around, With stick shifts and steering wheels, Motorbikes and automobiles, And every night it was the same old thing, Meet the boys for a couple of drinks, Shoot pool and talk about girls, And nothing ever happens round here, Nothing ever happens round here; They said nothing, no nothing, Nothing ever happens round here, Nothing, no nothing, Nothing ever happens round here. One day in a local bar, She heard a movie man was looking for a star, And everybody in the whole damn town, Got the call to come on down, And when she walked into the room, Every heart went boom boom boom, - who's that girl? She's exactly what were looking for, But nothing ever happens round here, Nothing ever happens round here; They said nothing, no nothing, Nothing ever happens round here, Nothing, no nothing, Nothing ever happens round here; And so she took a screen test, No doubt that she was the best, The camera fell in love with her, Before she knew it she was on the way to make that dream come true; Now she's living in hollywood, And everything is looking good, She thinks about the folks back home, And her boyfriend all alone, but; Every night it's still the same old thing, Meet the boys for a couple of drinks, Shoot pool and talk about girls, And nothing ever happens round here, Nothing ever happens round here, They said nothing, no nothing, Nothing ever happens round here, Nothing, no nothing, Nothing ever happens round here; |

There's a quiet Revolution going on,
Like a fire in every corner of the world, And friends that you have known for many years, Are talking with a new light inside, Talking with a brightness in their eyes; There are quiet conversations going on, As people speak about what they have seen, And everywhere the feeling's getting stronger, That soon there will be change in our lives, From a thousand years of looking in the sky, Something is coming now, something is coming now; You will believe it when, You will believe it, When the light comes shining through, You will believe it when, You will believe it, When it's shining down on you; There are quiet celebrations going on, So many have been waiting for so long, To see the whole world waking from a dream, And find a new dimension inside, See a revelation in our time, Something is coming now, Something is coming now.; You will believe it when, You will believe it, When the light comes shining through, You will believe it when, You will believe it, When it's shining down on you; We must guard against the enemy, They can help us or they can betray us in the night, Don't talk, don't talk,but this quiet revolution, Can destroy the man of darkness with the light; You will believe it when, You will believe it, When the light comes shining through, You will believe it when, You will believe it, When it's shining down on you; Shining on you, shining on you........ |

And the fear was in my heart,
All around me the forest and the rain, Then with the flash of a light, I saw it in the night, I must be getting near - Saint Peter's Gate! When I went through the door, he was standing in the hall, An old man with a beard of shining white, He said "I've been expecting you, let me show you to your room", And he took me all the way by candlelight, And lying there on the bed, a book, black & red, My name was written on the front in gold, And when I opened it up, there were pictures of my life, And a voice began to call from down below; Nobody will get through, nobody, Not even you, can escape the Judgement Day, Nobody will be spared, Heaven is only there, For the ones who satisfy them at - Saint Peter's Gate. "Come with me" said that old man, as he took me by the hand "There is someone here that you have seen before, In this room on the left, a man who did his best, To bring joy and happiness to one and all; But in that room on the right, a dictator in life, We've been waiting for him here,as you can tell, For all the blood he's spilled, And for all the ones he's killed, We condemn him to eternity in hell; Nobody will get through, Nobody, Not even you, can escape the Judgement Day, Nobody will be spared,Heaven is only there, For the ones who satisfy them at - Saint Peter's Gate. I woke up with the dawn, there was someone in my room, A woman, like an angel all in white, And then she told me "You must run, for your time has yet to come, Go now, before they change their minds", And from the window I saw, A thousand or more, Bringing that dictator to his knees, And his cries broke the sound, Of my footsteps on the ground, As I made it to the safety of the trees: Nobody will get through, Nobody not even you, Can escape the judgement day, Nobody will be spared, Heaven is only there, For the ones who satisfy them at... Saint Peters Gate. Nobody will get through, Nobody not even you, Can escape the judgement day, Nobody will be spared, Heaven is only there, For the ones who satisfy them at, St Peters Gate. |

In the last moments of the dawn, Before the day begins, before we say goodnight, Hold me now, kiss me now, My hands are shaking, and my heart is aching, At the thought of making love with you, Tonight, i would never dream that i would fall in love, And it would be with you, We're out at sea, just you and me, Now the wind is blowing, and my passion is growing, And your eyes are glowing with the light of love; There is no explanation why it should be this way, For you and me, must be destiny, And from a new horizon, you came right out of the blue; With the last moments of the dawn, Could be the first day of my life with you; Hold me now, kiss me again, 'cos my hands are shaking, And my heart is aching, As the dream of making love with you Comes true........... In the last moments of the dawn, the last moments of the dawn.... |

He walked alone up the rocky road, To find the place, to read the stone, And bring the word back, from the top of the mountain, Where it would be; The lightning struck, and the thunder roared, As he lifted it up, In the name of the lord, And many waited for the new revelation, They are ready to go, they're going home; And the rivers of abraham are running free, With the dawn of a waking man, and destiny, To the garden of eden, and paradise, We will never be broken, and we will never die; We cross the bridge to the silver bird, And say goodbye to the ones that we love, No skies or oceans in the place we are going, Like seeds on the wind; The time has come, we shut the door, We are ready to go, in the name of the lord A world is waiting for a new destination, We are ready to go, we're going home; And the rivers of abraham are running free, With the dawn of a waking man, and destiny, To the garden of eden and paradise, We will never be broken and we will never die; And the rivers of abraham, are running free, With the dawn of a waking man and destiny, To the garden of eden and paradise, We will never be broken, We will never die, And the rivers of abraham are running free, With the dawn of a waking man, and destiny, To the garden of eden and paradise We will never be broken and we will never die. |

I cannot sleep tonight, i have you on my mind,
Even the wind is calling your name, Though you are far away, i feel that you are near, Whispering words from over the sea, And if you wake in your night,remember that i will be here; And like the same sun, that's rising on the valley with the dawn, I will walk with your shadow and keep you warm, And like the same moon, that's shining through my window here tonight, I will watch in your darkness, and bring you safely to the morning light. Where there is love like this, forever, for all time, I will be there, wherever you lie, And where there are hearts that live together in one soul, Nothing on earth will keep us apart, And if you're crying inside, remember that i will be here; And like the same sun that's rising on the valley with the dawn, I will walk with your shadow and keep you warm, And like the same moon that's shining through my window here tonight, I will watch in your darkness, and bring you safely to the morning light; I love you, i love you, i love you; And if you're crying inside, remember that i will be here; And like the same sun, that's rising on the valley with the dawn, I will walk with your shadow and keep you warm, And like the same moon that's shining through my window here tonight, I will watch in your darkness and bring you safely to the morning light; Same sun, same moon, Same sun, same moon, Same soul, same heart, Same world, same stars - you will be forever in my world; Same sun, same moon, Same sun, same moon, Same soul, same heart, oh, i love you i love you i love you, Same world, same stars - you will be forever in my heart. |

There is something on my mind,
and I'm losing concentration And I feel it everytime, that you are near me. I could tell you all about, your picture at my bedside, I should call you sometime, and talk it over. 'Cos I get a kick inside, and I feel a tingle too, It just comes from time to time, And it only happens, When I think of You, sleeping, when I'm dreaming, when I wake up, when I think of you, walking, when I'm talking, when I look up, when I think of You, take me away to a land of mass confusion, And I don't know what to say, when I am near you, I could stand here all day long, just staring at your window, But I have so much to do, that's so important, Then I get a kick inside, and I feel a tingle too, It just comes from time to time, And it only happens, When I think of You, sleeping, when I'm dreaming, when I wake up, When I think of you, walking, when I'm talking, when I look up, when I think of You may get the feeling that I'm dancing on the ceiling, When I get a kick inside, and my head is spinning too, It just comes from time to time, And it only happens When I think of You, sleeping, when I'm dreaming, when I wake up, When I think of you, when I whisper to your picture, when I kiss it, when I think of you When I think of you, when I'm dreaming we're together, on my sofa, When I think of you, when I'm wishing that we're kissing, when we're dancing, When I think of you. |

You look beautiful
You're looking good, I haven't seen you for a long time, How've you been? i like the way you have your hair, But something has changed, And i can see a woman in your eyes, and in your smile; Remember when we'd always be together, And we believed this love would never die. And ever since then, I've often wondered how i'd feel if we should meet again, And you look beautiful, you look wonderful, You're like an angel heaven sent to me, You look beautiful, you look wonderful, I've got a feeling this was meant to be, When we broke apart, we both set off to find the world, And face the storms of life, I thought i heard you calling, When your ship hit the rocks, And here we are survivors from the sea Just you and me, out on the beach, If you have time, Lets get a cup of coffee, and talk about, All the feelings that we share, Cos when there's still love, You know it from the moment that you see, Those eyes again; And you look beautiful, You look wonderful, You're like an angel heaven sent to me, You look beautiful, You look wonderful, I've got a feeling this was meant to be, Yes i know it this was meant to be, You look wonderful, Now i know it, this was meant to be; |

I'm standing in the station,
I am waiting for a train, To take me to the border, And my loved one far away, I watched a bunch of soldiers heading for the war, I could hardly even bear to see them go; Rolling through the countryside, Tears are in my eyes, We're coming to the borderline, I'm ready with my lies, And in the early morning rain, I see her there, And I know I'll have to say goodbye again; And it's breaking my heart, I know what I must do, I hear my country call me, but I want to be with you, I'm taking my side, one of us will lose, Don't let go, I want to know, That you will wait for me until the day, There's no borderline, no borderline; Walking past the border guards, Reaching for her hand, Showing no emotion, I want to break into a run, But these are only boys, and I will never know, How men can see the wisdom in a war... And it's breaking my heart, I know what I must do, I hear my country call me, but I want to be with you, I'm taking my side, one of us will lose, Don't let go, I want to know, That you will wait for me until the day, There's no borderline, no borderline... No borderline, no borderline... |

The caf굎 are all deserted, the streets are wet again,
There's nothing quite like an out of season holiday town, In the rain, When the tourists go and the cold winds blow, And my girl is on a plane, home... I'm never gonna love another, the way that I have loved you, It's taken me a little time to discover it, Now I know it's true, but fatal hesitation, Made me miss the show, Oh Romeo is standing in the rain, And I know that I have let her slip away, Fatal hesitation, fatal hesitation... I saw you again this morning, walking down the beach, And though you are a thousand miles away, You were only just out of reach, but when I got up close, And I saw her face, I knew it couldn't be so, no, no... Oh Romeo is standing in the rain, And I, yes I know, I have let her slip away, Fatal hesitation, fatal hesitation, I'm going to get on my boat and sail away; Oh Romeo is standing in the rain, And I know, I have let her slip away, Fatal hesitation, fatal hesitation, Fatal hesitation, oh Romeo is standing in the rain, Fatal hesitation, yes I know, I have let her slip away; I'm gonna read a little Shakespeare, And get her out of my head, It doesn't matter any more, I'm gonna miss her just a little bit, Just a little bit... |

I wake with the dawn, something is wrong,
Then I hear you breathing softly by my side, And I know that I was dreaming, of a time that may come, When you would be no longer in my life; I slip out of the bed, I go down the stairs, Still troubled by the power of the dream, And I know that I don't say it quite as much as I should, The way I feel, and what you mean to me; You are my lover, you are my friend, You are my life to the very end, You bring me comfort, you keep me warm, You give me hope, you make me strong, You take me away to a distant shore, And it's with you that I want to stay, Forevermore; We go out at night, you're looking so good, People turning, as you walk into the room, And when I stand beside you I can feel the pride in my heart, To know that you are here with me tonight; You are my lover, you are my friend, You are my life to the very end, You bring me comfort, you keep me warm, You give me hope, you make me strong, You take me away to a distant shore, And it's with you that I'm going to stay, Forevermore, Yes it's with you that I'm going to stay, Forevermore, Yes it's with you that I'm going to stay, Forevermore. You are my lover, you are my friend, You are my... |

I never knew love could be
a silence in the heart A moment when the time is still And all I've been looking for is right here in my arms Just waiting for the chance to begin I never knew love could be the sunlight in your eyes On a day that you may not have seen And all I've been searching for well words could never say When a touch is more than anything Maybe you will never know how much I love you But of this be sure Here is your paradise here is your book of life Where you and I will be forevermore Here is your paradise here is your book of life you and I will be forevermore And in the dark night you'll follow the bright light And go where the love must go And you will wake in the morning to a brand new day Take all your worries away Maybe you will never know how much I love you But of this be sure Here is your paradise here is your book of life Where you and I will be forevermore Here is your paradise here is your book of life you and I will be forevermore |

Please give me one more chance,
I'm begging you, just one more chance, If you'll listen... This is not some movie romance, Or everlasting love at a glance, Won't you listen... She is a part of me now, She's the very heart of me now, so... If you really love her, let her go; She's your daughter and I know that you care, But like a lost bird in the cold night air, She is lonely... Thinking back to the days you were young, When the pain of loving was so very strong, Weren't you lonely? She is no longer a child, She's a woman with love in her eyes, so... If you really love her, let her go, If you really love her, let her go; She is no longer a child, She's a woman with my love in her eyes, so... If you really love her, let her go, If you really love her, let her go, If you really love her, let her go... |

In a country churchyard there's a preacher with his people,
Gathered all around to join a man and woman, Spring is here and turtledoves are singing from the steeple, Bees are in the flowers, growing in the graveyard, And over the hill, where the river meets the mill, A lovely girl is coming down, To give her hand upon her wedding day... Dressed in simple white and wearing flowers in her hair, Music as she walks slowly to the altar, And picking up his bible then the preacher turns towards her, "Will you take this man to be your wedded husband, to honour and love in the eyes of God above, Now let the people sing with me, The words to live forever in your heart... Let your love shine on, For we are the stars in the sky, Let your love shine strong, Until the day you fly away" Many years have fallen on that golden country morning, The graveyard's overgrown, the church lies in ruins, Ivy on the walls and ravens wheeling round above me, As I made my way towards the last remaining headstone, I fell to my knees, read the lines beneath the leaves, And suddenly it seemed to me, I heard the words like singing in the trees... Let your love shine on, For we are the stars in the sky, Let your love shine strong, Until the day you fly... Let your love shine on, For we are the stars in the sky, Let your love shine strong, Until the day you fly, fly away... |

There's an angel crying up in Heaven tonight,
And I've got the Devil in my heart, Because I keep saying things that I don't mean, And it's tearing us apart There's a wild wind blowing in the desert tonight, Oh how I long to feel the rain, And let it wash away these lonely tears, And bring us back again, 'Cos it's a different world when I look into your eyes, You're the nearest thing that I have seen to Paradise, And I know with you I will be in love forever There's a stranger waiting deep in every heart, To say the crazy things we say, But I promise you he won't be back, To steal your dreams away So come up close and put your sweet hand in mine, I'm going to hold you all night long, And if you wake up I will be here, To tell you that I love you 'Cos it's a different world when I look into your eyes, You're the nearest thing that I have seen to Paradise, And I know with you I will be in love forever Yes, it's a different world when I look into your eyes, You're the nearest thing that I have seen to Paradise, And I know with you I will be in love forever, Yes I know with you I will be in love forever, In love forever. |

The autumn leaves were falling,
On these old cathedral walls, There were candles in the darkness, Singing in the choir, And reading out the names, Of all the ones who've gone before, Well I could tell that you were thinking, About the meaning of it all; And you said to me "Who will open up my eyes, To the wonder, and the glory, and the stars in the sky?" And you said to me "For this road I'm travelling on, I need someone beside me forever, who? Who?" And I said "It's me, and I'm ready to go, Ready to show, that I'll never let you down, And I want you to know, that this power will grow, Every day, every beat of my heart, Forever, forever;" We went down to the river, And we found a small caf, They say that over in the corner, Sat the writer Ernest Hemingway, And here he made his story of the lovers in the war, And through it all they stayed together, Till the rain had to fall; And you said to me "Who will be the one apart, Who will teach me, with conviction, all the ways of the heart?" And you said to me "On this journey of my life, I need someone to love me forever, who? Who?" And I said, listen "It's me, and I'm ready to go, Ready to show, that I'll never let you down, And I want you to know, that this power will grow, Every day, every beat of my heart, I love you, I love you; It's me, and I'll never let you down, And I want you to know, that this power will grow, Every day, every beat of my heart, Forever, I love you, forever." |

The cold north wind they call "la bise"
Is swirling round about my knees Trees are crying leaves into the river I'm huddled in this french cafe I never thought I'd see the day When winter's here and summer's really over Even the birds have packed up and gone They're flying south with their song And my loveshe too has goneshe had to fly Take careit's such a lonely sky They'll trap your wings my love and hold your flight They'll build a cage and steal your only sky Fly awayfly to mefly when the wind is high I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky ... The old cathedral lights are low She and I we'd often go there To admire and sometimes kneel in prayer Lords and ladies lie in stone Hand in hand from long ago And though their hands are cold they'll love forever Even the choir rehearses those songs For christmas is not long. And aloneI sing my songshe had to fly Out there it's such a lonely sky They'll trap your wings my love and hold your flight They'll build a cage and steal your only sky Fly awayfly to mefly when the wind is high I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky ... Fly awayfly to meand if you need my love I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky ... I'll come in with the dawn I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky ... On the wings of the mourn I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky ... Above the world we'll be flying I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky ... And though their hands are cold they'll love forever |

I've been missing you
I've got the roses I've got the wine With a little luck she will be here on time This is the place we used to go With romantic music and the lights down low And as you stand there amazed at the door And you're wondering what all this is for It's just a simple thing from me to you The lady that I adore cos there's something That you should know it's that I've been missing you more than words can say And that I've been thinking about it every day And the time we had just dancing nice and slow And I said now I've found you I'm never letting go There is no reason to the things that we do You can break a heart with just a word or two And take a lifetime to apologise When the one you love's in front of your eyes And I will fall to my knees like a fool If it's the only way of getting through You see if I think you are beautiful Someone else is going to feel it too So there's only one thing to do tell you that I've been missing you more than words can say And that I've been thinking about it every day Well tonight's our night for dancing nice and slow Because now I've found you I'm never letting go No now I've found you I'm never letting go I've been missing you I've been missing you I've been missing you I've been missing you darling |

sometimes the man in me gets restless
i need to get away from you and spend some time with someone that i knew just to see her for the night and in the candlelight to talk and remember early days sometimes the woman in you's uneasy i can see it in your eyes just like me you need to know can you still fly can you still arouse the passions of another man and if you carry it through what would i do? it would take much more than this to break a love so long in the making it would take much more than talk or dreams to shake so strong a foundation - more than this sometimes the man in me gets lonely when i am away from you and in the darkness of another hotel room if theres someone in the night saying "its gonna be alright to ease away the pain of missing you" what can i do? it would take much more than this to break a love so long in the making it would take much more than talk or dreams to shake so strong a foundation - more than this |

Cherie, il est onze heures du soir
et tu me manques beaucoup; je pense ?toi toujours... toujours. At separate tables we sit down to eat, In separate bedrooms we go to sleep at night, I only wish you knew how much, You've been on my mind; I think about you when the morning comes, I think about you when all my day is done, Wondering what you are doing now, Are you lonely too? Because I - I miss you here tonight, And I wish you were by my side, And I don't want to let go; At separate tables we sit down to write, The separate letters that never see the light, If only we could just agree, To read between the lines; I want to see you and I know what I will say, We must be crazy to throw it all away, Never knowing what is lost, Before it's all too late; And I - I miss you here tonight, And I wish you were by my side, And I don't want to let go; Yes I - I miss you here tonight, And when I hold you by my side, Well I'm not gonna let go; I miss you, I really miss you... |

I'm lying here tonight, thinking of the days we've had,
Wondering if the world would be so beautiful, If I had not looked into your eyes, How did you know that I've been waiting? I never knew the world would be so beautiful at all; I'm spending all the days, dreaming of the nights we've had, I never knew that love would be a miracle, When I think of all the ones before, But now that I've found you I am flying, I never knew that love would be so beautiful to me, I never knew that love would be so beautiful to me; And when we dance to the rhythm that is burning like a flame, And when you touch me I can hardly move you take my breath away, You give me all that I want to feel when we become as one, And then you take me to the heaven of your heart; Did nobody ever tell you, you're the best thing that has ever been; Ah... you... ah... so beautiful... ah... so beautiful... I'm standing here tonight, thinking of the time we'll have, I never knew that you would be so beautiful, )From the day you came into my life, I just want to say, you make me happy, I never knew that you would be so beautiful to me, I never knew that you would be so beautiful to me; So beautiful to me... So beautiful to me... So beautiful to me... ...to me; I'm lying here tonight, I'm dreaming here tonight, I dance with you tonight... |

Suddenly love comes in and finds me on open ground,
Nowhere to hide, nowhere to run, there's no turning back, And a journey has just begun; Suddenly love breaks down the doors, There is singing inside, And all of the light that's in your eyes, shining here tonight, Has woken the man in me, and the woman in you, The woman in you; All night, heads on the pillow, and eyes that are never shut, All night, rain on the window, but inside, we have so much; Suddenly love takes me away where I've never been, Shows me a world I have never seen, I could only dream, That I ever would find myself with a lover like you, A lover like you; All night, heads on the pillow, and eyes that are never shut, All night, body to body, and thrilling to every touch; Oh, suddenly love takes me away where I've never been, It shows me a world I have never seen, and I just want to be, Alone in your mystery, love me over and over, and over and over again. |

Let us talk no more, let us go to sleep
let the rain fall on the window pane and fill the castle keep I am weary now weary to my bones weary from the travelling and the endless country roads that brought us here tonight for this weekend and a chance to work it out for we cannot live together and we cannot live apart it's the classical dilemma between the head and the heart She is sleeping now softly in the night and in my heart of darkness she has been the only light I am lost in love, looking at her face and still I hear the voice of reason telling me to chase these dreams away oh, here we go again we're divided from the start for we cannot live together and we cannot live apart it's the classical dilemma between the head and the heart Now the dawn begins and still I cannot sleep my head is spinning round but now the way is clear to me there is nothing left nothing left to show the jury and the judge will see it's time to let her go now hear the heart.... I believe that time will show she will always be a part of my world I don't want to see her go so I plead my case to hear the heart and stay.... it's time to let her go - I don't want to let her go- and in this classical dilemma I find for.... the heart |

There is an answer, some day we will know, And you will ask her, why she had to go, We live and die, we laugh and we cry, And you must take away the pain, Before you can begin to live again; So let it start, my friend, let it start, Let the tears come rolling from your heart, And when you need a light in the lonely night, Carry me like a fire in your heart, Carry me like a fire in your heart; There is a river rolling to the sea, You will be with her for all eternity, But we that remain need you here again, So hold her in your memory, And begin to make the shadows disappear; Yes let it start, my friend, let it start, Let the love come rolling from your heart, And when you need a light in the lonely night, Carry me like a fire in your heart, Carry me like a fire in your heart; And when you need a light in the lonely night, Carry me like a fire in your heart, Carry me like a fire in your heart; And when you need a light in the lonely night, Carry me like a fire in your heart, Carry me like a fire in your heart. |

Lady love, go back to sleep, Dry the tears from your eyes, But i cannot stay with thee Until the morning, For the dawn is breaking, And my ship is waiting for me, And i must go, But i'll be back, yes, Before this year is over; So we sailed across the sea, Till we found america, 'round the cape of storms We set our sails for home, And when the sea was roaring And the lord i called To help my drowning men, I saw the light, yes, the candle in your window... And i have brought you silver, And i have brought you gold, And spices from the indies in the hold; I've seen ships on the horizon, That i'd swear were going down, But now i know for certain, The world is round, I have seen, my eyes have seen. One day says galileo, A man will reach the sky, And see the world completely, From outside, And gazing down from younder, On a world of blue and green, He'll say with eyes of wonder, I have seen, i have seen, My eyes have seen. I have seen, My eyes have seen. |

When I think of all the times I've tried so hard to leave her She will turn to me and start to cry And she promises the earth to me and I believe her After all there's time I don't know whyvAh girl ... girl... She's the kind of girl who puts you down when friends are there you feel a fool When you say she's looking good She acts as if it's understood She's cool cool cool cool Ah girl ... girl... Was she told when she was young that pain would lead to pleasure Did she understand it when they said That a man must break his back to earn his day of leisure Will she still believe him when he's dead? Ah girl ... girl |

from Chris De Burgh - Beautiful Dreams (1995)
I don't mind this empty room, and i like it when i'm alone, I'm trying not to think about you, i'm not waiting by the telephone, I'm watching a late-night movie, where the lovers say goodbye, And it's really getting to me, and tears are in my eyes, But i'm not crying, i'm not crying, I'm not crying over you, i'm over you; I go out with all of my friends, and i'm hardly ever at home, You know things just couldn't be better, I have read it in my horoscope, I might take a walk past your house, for a trip down memory lane, You may see me at your window, standing in the pouring rain, But i'm not crying, i'm not crying, I'm not crying over you, no i'm not crying, I'm not crying, i'm not crying, i'm not crying over you, I'm over you; No i'm not crying, i'm not crying, I'm not crying over you, i'm over you, I'm over you. |

A candy coloured clown they call the sandman, Tiptoes to my room every night, Just to sprinkle star dust and to whisper, "go to sleep everything is alright;" I close my eyes and i drift away, And to the magic night i softly say, A silent prayer, like dreamers do, Then i fall asleep to dream my dreams of you; In dreams i walk with you, In dreams i talk to you, In dreams you're mine, all of the time, We're together in dreams, in dreams; But just before the dawn, I awake and find you gone, I can't help it, I can't help it if i cry, I remember when you said "goodbye". It's too bad that all these things, Can only happen in my dreams, Only in dreams, In beautiful dreams, Only in dreams, In beautiful dreams. |
