You've done me wrong
Your time is up
You took a sip (just a sip)
From the devil's cup
You broke my heart
There's no way back
Move right outta here baby
Go on pack your bags
Just who do you think you are
Stop acting like some kinda star
Just who do you thi

Sometimes the river flows but nothing breathes.
A train arrives but never leaves.
It's a shame.
Oh life - like love that walks out of the door,
of being rich or being poor.
Such a shame.
But it's then, then that faith arrives
to make you feel at least alive.
And that's why you should keep on aiming high,
just seek yourself and you will shine.

[chorus]
You've go to search for the hero inside yourself,
search for the secrets you hide.
Search for the hero inside yourself
until you find the key to your life.

In this life, long and hard though it may seem,
live it as you'd live a dream.
Aim so high.
Just keep the flame of truth burning bright.
The missing treasure you must find
because you and only you alone
can build a bridge across the stream.
Weave your spell in life's rich tapestry -
your passport to a feel supreme.

[chorus]

Search inside yourself. (You've got to search) [x2]

[chorus] [x2]

You've got to.
(Search inside yourself) [x3]

Search.

Ain't love, ain't love, ain't love a surprice. [x4]

Oh yeah. [x4]

Another dollar, another day.
Some old routine in my way.
My eyes are achin', my body tired.
I'm all strung up you know I feel so wired.
And then you walk into the room.
Time stops, everything drops, boom boom boom.
Vision of love, heavens above.
I feel your body like a velvet glove.
Because...

[chorus]
You're a sight for sore eyes.
As a mater of fact at the drop of a hat,
you're my love surprice.

So radical, so very chic.
But without you I feel so weak
when lover boy comes into sight.
I don't know why but it feels so right.
Need energy, a vitamin shock?
No way for me, you're what I got.
Don't need no drugs to make me high,
I just need to look you baby right in the eye.
Because...

[chorus]

Ain't love, ain't love, ain't love a surprice. [x4]

Surprice me baby. [x4]

[chorus] [x2]

Ain't love, ain't love, ain't love a surprice. [x8]

The world can beat me black 'n' blue,
it can hurt so much it's just not true.
Down and out and down at heel,
but it sure can't change the way I feel.
I feel a strength so deep within
a love to wash away the sin.
Like the sound of the sea deep within a she

Go take the fast line baby, you travel so light.
The fast lane mother, your bark is your bite.
Fast lane baby, it's all such a gas.
Fast lane honey, you wave as you pass.
Get busy one time.
I got a packet, I keep it for my mind.
I'm so impressive so han

Well a strange thing happened to me yesterday.
I looked at your stars and ooh I saw the Milky Way.
And if you could feel just half as much as me.
Then I wouldn't be just another leaf on your tree.
Well I never thought I'd feel this way.
You are my life, m

Someone to count on in a world ever changin'.
Here I am, stop where you standin'.
What you need is a lover, someone to take over.
Oh baby don't look any further.

Strange when you think of the chances
that we've both been in a state of mind.
Too cool to be careless. Looking for the right thing.
Oh baby don't look any further.

Tonight (tonight) we're gonna taste a little paradise.
Rockin' all night long. Rockin' all night long.
Daylight (daylight) I'll still be looking in your heavenly eyes.

Oh we rocked on and on and on.

Day o umba day o mambu ji ay o.
Don't look any further. Don't you look no furhter.
Day o umba day o na jam bay um bay o.
Don't look any further.

I enter the temple of holy love,
And shout your name to God above.
I tell myself this is no game;
I only hope you feel the same.

They say that love's a two way thing,
And all of the pleasures it may bring.
But our love will never be,
Until you give yourself to me.

[Chorus]
How can I love you more?
How can I love you more?
Please tell me,
How can I love you more?
I give you a love so pure.

Losing you would make me feel
Helpless, weak, alone, unreal.
Life I could not contemplate.
I need your love, don't make me wait.

Don't tell me it's not enough,
I try so hard don't be so tough.
I never felt this way before.
I'm sick, and baby, you're my cure.

How can I love you more?
How can I love you more?
Oh baby,
How can I love you more?
I give you a love so pure.

[Chorus]

You're my masterpiece, my priceless friend,
my inspiration, love 'til the end.
Like a ray of light, a flower in bloom,
you change the day, sun and moon.

[chorus] [x2]
Colour my life, ooh child you've got to
colour my life. Mmmm I said
colour my life.
Fill my canvas with everything nice.

Like a cactus flower in the desert sand,
an oasis of love in a desolate land,
our emotions flow, paint from a brush.
Sweet thing I love you oh so much.

[chorus] [x3]

Colour my life, ooh child you've got to
colour my life. Mmmm I said
colour my life. Mmmm I said,
Fill my canvas with everything nice.

I'm coming home, I'm coming home to your house.
Boy there's so many things to give.
I've been aware of your charms for so long
and there's nothing that you can do
to stop me from coming around, round
to your house.
I'm coming home, I'm coming home to y

You walk on in and my heart catches fire.
My head explodes with visions of desire.
Mmm, you touch my heart, oh you,
you tear me apart.
I can't even think,
you touch me and I, I...

I get so excited,

If I only knew how you feel
I would give my heart to you.
And if you let me in on your deal
maybe I won't feel so blue.
Give me a signal... from the heart.
Some kind of sign boy... of who you really are.
Don't waste my time 'cos... we've come too far.
You must decide now... if I'm your star.

[chorus]
Open up your heart. (Oh baby, baby)
Open up your heart.
Make me feel a part. (Oh baby, baby)
Open up your heart.

Why don't you wear your heart on my sleeve
then you can take your place by me.
And as I've got more to give than you need,
come on and end this misery.
Give me a signal... from the heart.
Some kind of sign boy... of who you really are.
Don't waste my time 'cos... we've come too far.
It makes no sense now... when we're apart.

[chorus] [x2]

Give me a signal... from the heart.
Some kind of sign boy... of who you really are.
Don't waste my time 'cos... we've come too far.
You must decide now... if I'm your star.

[chorus] [x2]

Baby, baby, baby. [x2]

One night in heaven. One night in heaven. [x4]
Sometimes I get to thinking, while you are far away,
just how much I miss you and how time it ticks away.
So sad when we are fighting, too much tension too much hate.
Sometimes I need reminding, before it ge

(If you reach)

Over bridge of sighs,
to rest my eyes in shades of green
under dreaming spires
to Itchycoo Park. That's where I've been.
(What did you do there?)
I got high...
(What did you feel there?)
Well, I cried...
(But why the tears then?)
Tell you why...

It's all too beautiful! [x4]

I'll tell you what I'll do.
(What will you do?)
I'd like to go there now with you,
you can miss out school.
(Won't that be cool?)
Why go to hear the words of fools?
(What did you do there?)
I got high...
(What did you touch there?)
I touched the sky...
(But why the tears then?)
I'll tell you why...

It's all too beautiful! [x4]

(Beaty) [x10]

(Beatiful) [x3]
(-ful yeah)

I feel inclined to blow my mind,
get hung up, feed the ducks with a bun.
They all come out to groove about
be nice and have fun in the sun.

(What did you do there?)

Yeah heah. [x3]

(It's all too beautiful!)
It's so beautiful, yeah.
(It's all too beautiful!)
It's beautiful.
(It's all too beautiful!)
Beautiful, yeah.
(It's all too beautiful!)

Beaty all around me.

The world is cold and times are bad.
Everytime I think about it, it makes me sad.
War and drugs are everywhere
and it's getting so hard to breathe the air.
But it doesn't have to be like this,
all the rancour and bitterness.
If we can just open our eyes
we can make this world a paradise.

Someday.
We'll live as one family in perfect harmony.
Someday.
If we all pull together we will all be free.

Someday (someday!) [x3]

Free from the pressure and the prejudice
(FREE FROM OPRESSION AND PREJUDUICE )
we can change it all with tenderness.
There'll be no void between black and white.
We'll be able to walk the streets at night.
I won't be fooled while someone dies of starvation,
the whole world will be my nation.
We will walk hand in hand.
I'll go to South Africa and be called woman.

Someday.
We'll live as one family in sweet harmony.
Someday.
If we all pull together we will all be free.

Mmmm, someday.
We'll all be free - mmmm, you and me.
Someday (someday!) [x3]
We will all be free, (someday) free, FREE!

Someday!
I wanna be
Someday!
Free!
Someday!
Free!
Someday! [x2]
Someday! (someday) [x2]
Someday!

Someday we'll all be free... [x2]
Hmm,
someday [x6]
we'll all be free...
Hey I wanna be free, free, FREE!

There'll be no ghettos, no addiction.
All today's troubles will seem like fiction.
We will walk hand-in-hand.
I'll go to South Africa and be called woman.

Someday (someday!) [x2]
Hey , I wanna be
Someday (someday!)
Free!
Someday...
