So many stories to be told across the ages young and old. Could it be that we've become immune to all we hear on daytime news, Where is the passion to unite? Because divided we can't fight all the troubles in this life.
There's so many things that we are fighting. Yeah. There's so many people out there trying. Yeah.
And there's a little girl only six years old. Her daddy does drugs. Her mama's on the road. She's a latchkey kid before she's even grown. What we really need to do is give the girl a chance. Put her on the road where there's no way back, To a life that she's always known. We gotta do something. Yeah. Can't do nothing. Yeah.
A&E is full of life. Somebody's son got in a fight. Doctors say it's touch and go, So nobody's going home. Friday night is where it starts. Kids all high and having fun. There will be a loss of life. Trivial things that start a fight.
There's so many things we could be fighting. Yeah. But do we give a damn and are we trying? Yeah.
And there's a little girl only six years old. Her daddy does drugs. Her mama's on the road. She's a latchkey kid before she's even grown. What we really need to do is give the girl a chance. Put her on the road where there's no way back, To a life that she's always known. We gotta do something. Yeah. Can't do nothing. Yeah.
It's a crazy world we're living in. Yeah. It's a crazy world we're living in. Yeah.
Across town in a club, a girl's on the floor. She's lying in the dark. She did it once before. Her body's full of drugs. She did it for a rush. Don't it make you wonder just how many more? We gotta do something; it's not right. Can't keep saying our hands are tied. Gotta do something but it's too late: There'll be another mother digging a grave.
There's so many things that we are fighting. Yeah. But do we give a damn and are we trying? Yeah.

It's a crazy world we're living in. Yeah. It's a crazy world we're living in. Yeah.
The world's gone crazy that we are living in. The world's gone crazy that we are seeing in. The world's gone crazy more than a little bit. The world's gone crazy. Yeah.
The world's gone crazy that we are living in. The world's gone crazy that we are seeing in. The world's gone crazy more than a little bit. The world's gone crazy.
You have come to show me another side of you. The part where you are selfish in everything you do. Imagine what I'm feeling and what this does to me. You have got me feeling that you don't care for me.
I don't feel that on your mind. It's how you make me feel.
It's give and take when you try to get it right. I don't think you understand. You haven't taken time. You and I, we cannot survive, When one of us is trying and one is in denial.
If you stop believing, then baby let me know. And I won't try to stop you, I will let you go. I wish that you would listen to what I have to say. I am trying to save us, so don't you walk away.
I don't feel that on your mind. It's how you make me feel. Um, oh oh oh.
It's give and take when you try to get it right. I don't think you understand. You haven't taken time. You and I we cannot survive, When one of us is trying and one is in denial.
I don't think you know me. Give a little away too late. I don't think I ask too much, but still you hesitate. I want back the old days times we didn't fight. Right now things ain't working out, I want to get it right. But it's
It's give and take when you try to get it right. I don't think you understand. You haven't taken time. You and I we cannot survive, When one of us is trying and one is in denial.
The war of two minds, Why do we constantly fight? The breaking of two hearts, Oh, how long before the calm?
Looking for a place: some kind of middle ground, A little peace is what is needed now, I guess I'm trying to say can we work it out? Stop this...
The war of our two minds, I'm sick of fighting all the time, Emotions rising high, If a little hope is what we got, Then we gotta try to stop, The war of our two minds...
How did we get to here? Two souls once so near, Stop the fighting: that's our cure, Leave our troubles at the door, Make peace instead of war...
I really don't think you know what we got, And all we used to share and then we both forget, I'd do anything just to make it stop, Stop this...
The war of our two minds, I'm sick of fighting all the time, Emotions rising high, If a little hope is what we got, Then we gotta try to stop, The war of our two minds...
Baby won't you hear me out? Don't you ever wonder what this is all about? Let's stop this...
The war of our two minds, Are you sick of fighting all the time? Emotions rising high, If a little hope is what we got, Then we gotta try to stop, The war of our two minds...
Took a while for me to figure out what just happened, I'm sitting here alone: my life in pieces, Trying so hard to understand, hoping I can, Get some clarity, before I lose my sanity Got it all in my head, the words you said, I can't forget
And it seems like a dream, Now you're gone and it's just me, I'm on my own; I'm all alone, And the pain, that I feel, Given time I know will heal, But still you're gone and I'm on my own
Picking up the pieces of my life, Picking up the pieces, it's gonna take some time, Picking up the pieces of my broken heart, Picking up the pieces
Said you found someone, someone like you, I'm hoping she does better than I did with you, I don't wish you bad, but you left me sad, You came and broke my heart into a million pieces Got it all in my head, the words you said, Before you left
And it seems like a dream, Now you're gone and it's just me, I'm on my own; I'm all alone, And the pain, that I feel, Given time I know will heal, But still you're gone and I'm on my own
Picking up the pieces of my life, Picking up the pieces, it's gonna take some time, Picking up the pieces of my broken heart, Picking up the pieces
Was it all just a dream? Now you're gone and it's just me, I'm on my own; I'm all alone, And the pain, that I feel, Given time I know will heal, But still you're gone and I'm on my own
Picking up the pieces of my life, Picking up the pieces, it's gonna take some time, Picking up the pieces of my broken heart, Picking up the pieces, Picking up the pieces of my life, Picking up the pieces, it's gonna take a while, Picking up the pieces of my broken heart, Picking up the pieces
Am I not the same as you? Do I not live as you do? Do we not work the same land? Bear the same marks on our hands? Flesh and blood we're both the same, Though we go by different names, Both have families to feed, Though we see things differently,
We're running out of possibilities, Running out of time
When the walls come tumbling down, And you've lost too much to count, Will you feel you've won the fight? When there's no one else in sight? When the walls come tumbling down? And there's no one else around, Will you be on the side of right? When all you've loved has died
To your conscience I appeal, I stand before you, make a deal, Before we all lose control, And there's nothing left that's whole, They say sometimes revenge is sweet, But where there's loss how can that be? We are human so we feel, We are men not made of steel
We're running out of possibilities, Running, running out of time
When the walls come tumbling down, And you've lost too much to count, Will you feel you've won the fight? When there's no one else in sight? When the walls come tumbling down? And there's no one else around, Will you be on the side of right? When all you've loved has died
Tumbling down, no-one's around, Will you be on the side of right? Tumbling down, no-one's around
We're running out of possibilities, Running out of time
When the walls come tumbling down, And you've lost too much to count, Will you feel you've won the fight? When there's no one else in sight? When the walls come tumbling down? And there's no one else around, Will you be on the side of right? When all you've loved has died
You had to take the time Cos you had to make up your mind You really didn't want to choose But you had too much to lose They tried to change your mind Told you how to live your life And they told stories Stories that shouldn't be told It was you against the world But you chose to hold on to your girl You gotta believe that she's the one worth fighting for Forget about the world And worry about the girl Not what they say Not what they say your future holds for you Forget about the world And worry about the girl Not what they say Not what they say your future holds for you Had problems in the past There's no use in looking back The future holds so much for you Go to the light and pass on through You had a stronger love Outside forces weren't enough Tried their best to tear apart A love they hoped would never last So they tried to change your mind Told you how to live your life And they told stories Stories that shouldn't be told It was you against the world . . . Forget about the world. . . You gotta hold on to what you want What you've been fighting for You gotta believe in it - hold on Until you can fight no more You gotta hold on And you will see See your destiny Then you will know Which way to go Forget about the world.

Made a wish, I can dream I can be what I want to be Not afraid to live my life And fulfil my fantasies
I learnt a lot of tricks to help me live my life You helped me find my paradise When you came you were like
Sunshine through my window That's what you are My shining star Sunshine Making me feel I'm on top of the world Telling me I'll go far
Reaching out, for the highs You inspired me to try I felt the magic inside And I felt that I could fly I'm looking at the world in an optimistic light You made me appreciate my life 'Cos when you came you were like
Sunshine through my window That's what you are My shining star Sunshine Making me feel I'm on top of the world Telling me I'll go far
You are the calm I am the storm You are the breeze that carries me on When I said a truth You wink at me You're there for me
Sunshine (oh yeah) That's what you are My shining star Sunshine Making me feel I'm on top of the world Telling me that I'll go far Sunshine through my window That's what you are My shining star
(Sunshine) Making me feel I'm on top of the world Telling me that I'll go far Sunshine through my window That's what you are My shining star Sunshine Making me feel I'm on top of the world Telling me that I'll go far Sunshine My star, my star..
I know that it's over But I can't believe we're through They said that time's a healer And I'm better without you It's gonna take time I know But I'll get over you
[Chorus:] Look at my life Look at my heart I have seen them fall apart Now I'm ready to rise again Look at my hopes Look at my dreams I'm building bridges from these scenes Now I'm ready to rise again
Caught up in my thinking, yeah Like a prisoner in my mind You pose so many questions But the truth was hard to find I better think twice I know That I'll get over you
[Chorus]
Much time has passed between us Do you still think of me at all? My world of broken promises Now you won't catch me when I fall
Early in the morning My friends already calling Ready for a party They're just getting started Wouldn't miss it for a moment My heart's already stolen Heard he's gonna be there To miss it wouldn't be fair No, no, no, no, no, no
When a woman wants her man She'll catch him any way she can I'm telling you I got a masterplan I'm gonna get you boy Make you my man
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, de Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, de Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, de Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, de
Driving down the highway Roberta, Donnie Hathaway, yeah yeah Playing on the airwaves As we're making our way We pull up to a red light Check the mirror for the last time (for the last time) I know I'm looking just fine and I feel all right 'Cos I know I'm gonna party tonight, yeah, baby
When a woman wants her man … Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, de
Walking through the party With all my girls behind me, yeah, yeah Suddenly I saw him My heart it started jumping (and jumping and jumping and jumping) Then he led me to the dancefloor Then he held me closely (so closely, baby) Then he whispered softly (ooh) Will you be my one and only My only girl
It's five o'clock in the morning, and I cannot sleep I'm looking at you beside me, and I'm watching you breath baby I touch your face Feel your warmth you're now a part of me I don't know what I would do if you were ever to leave I want you to be, practically given your heart away to me baby I made a promise to you that I'll be keeping it safe, I never give it away, no, no, no, no
Chorus: You should know, I never plan to let you go you should care I made my promise to be here
Made for each other that's what our friends all keep on saying I got a feeling they're right but I just don't wanna say no I don't wanna tempt fate my friend my lover there's nothing I can't ask of you you're always there for me whenever I am needy of you your always true baby, baby
Chorus
My mind goes back to a time that wasn't long ago your confirmation of love for me you captured my soul, you made me feel whole what we got is good we gotta keep a hold on it our obligation to love is something we know exists, we're two parts that fit
Chorus
I know I'm saying this when you already understand, love's never easy between a woman and a man Some things in life will never come to you so easily I want your kind of love and not from someone grieving me...no, no, no, no
Here I am, Waiting for a sign, I never seem to know, If you want me in your life,
Where do I stand, I just don't know, I never feel I know you, Cos you blow hot and you blow cold,
It seems I've grown attached, Though we're not the perfect match, I just can't explain,
Should I stay, should I go, Could I ever really stand to let go, Can you not find the right words to say, That maybe I'm getting in your way,
I feel your warmth, Got me wanting more, You've left the door half open, I'm in two minds to explore,
But then again, Am I being honest, Being truthful to myself, Can I see my life without you, Could I be with someone else,
It seems I've grown attached, Though we're not the perfect match, I just can't explain, Oh no,
Should I stay, should I go, Could I ever really stand to let you go, Can you not find the right words to say, That maybe I'm getting in your way, Should I stay, should I go, I really think it's time that you should let me know, Can you not find the right words to say, That maybe I'm getting in your way
It seems I've grown attached, Though we're not the perfect match, I just can't explain, Oh no,
Should I stay, should I go, Could I ever really stand to let you go, Can you not find the right words to say, That maybe I'm getting in your way, Should I stay, should I go, I really think it's time that you should let me know, Can you not find the right words to say, That maybe I'm getting in your way
Should I stay, should I go, Could I ever stand to let you go, Can you not find the right words to say, That maybe I'm getting in your way,
Should I stay, should I go, I think it's time you let me know, Can you not find the right words to say, That maybe I'm getting in your way (fades)
From the moment that we met i knew that we would connect Your eyes had told me that some how we shared your history didnt realise i took a chance couldnt let the moment past I felt that fate had played a hand and brought you heard to me
And happiness can be short lived (can be short lived) And pain can bring you to your knees
Dont think that i'll get over you Dont know if i can make it through my darkest days Without you in my life and i dont think that i can face the pain and never see your face again (i close my eyes and wonder when) will it ever end
Got as close as we could be felt you could see through me you read my mind you read my life became a part of me took for granted precious times thought we had it all inside (but some cruel twist of fate) i had to watch it fade away
Dont think that i'll get over you Dont know if i can make it through my darkest days Without you in my life and i dont think that i can face the pain and never see your face again (i close my eyes and wonder when) will it ever end
Dont think that i'll get over you Dont know if i can make it through my darkest days Without you in my life dont think that i can face the pain and never see your face again (i close my eyes and wonder when) will it ever end
Dont think that i'll get over you Dont know if i can make it through my darkest days Without you in my life dont think that i can face the pain and never see your face again (i close my eyes and wonder when) will it ever end
(dont think) (dont know) will it ever end will it ever end
For too long I was weak Too weak to find my feet I tried to hold it all inside So you'd never realise
For too long I believed That you were good for me, I closed my mind to other possibilities You tried to out my fire Yes you did, yes you did Then you took control of me, yeah yeah
Maybe I was just too scared And maybe what you're Looking for is gone 'cause baby I Chorus: I learned to love myself I don't need no-one else Baby can't you see that I don't need your chains around me You said that this was love Well it was just too much I needed to be free Your kind of love was killing me
Well people say I've changed, yes I don't feel the same, they say I have a glow It's all because you're gone
I learned to love myself I don't need no-one else Oh baby can't you see that I don’t need your chains around me It’s Independence Day Now I've found my way I don't need your love to prove that I'm somebody Maybe I was just too scared And maybe what you're Looking for is gone 'cause baby I Chorus: I learned to love myself I don't need no-one else Baby can't you see that I don't need your chains around me You said that it was love It was just too much I needed to be free Your kind of love was killing me Baby baby Your kind of love was killing me yeah yeah Baby baby Oh baby yeah Your kind of love was killing me I don’t need no one else I learned to love myself
