| » Dark Street « |
When will it stop raining? When will these dark clouds go?
some days I get so low, but you turn me around, you turn me around
won't you come down to my dark street, and shine a light
'cause I need your sweet sunshine
Won't you come down to my dark street, and shine a light
'cause I need your sweet sunshine
You take away my sadness and the pain inside my heart
sometimes I fall apart, but you turn me around, you turn me around
Won't you come down to my dark street, and shine a light
'cause I need your sweet sunshine
Won't you come down to my dark street, and shine a light
'cause I need your sweet sunshine
sunshine
Won't you come down to my dark street, and shine a light
'cause I need your sweet sunshine
Won't you come down to my dark street, and shine a light
'cause I need your sweet sunshine
oh yeah, oh come on down, come on down
and never leave my sky again
shine your love light, love light, love light, love light
down on me, down on me |

Those days when our hearts were as big as the sun
turn around with a smile for everyone
that feeling's a memory
funny how it fades away
You won't see those pale grays returning to blues
the colors will wash out as I shrink in my shoes
and I won't always live and breathe
watch me as I fade away
we wake in the morning and work all day
we dress up in the evening with nothing to say
just like a candle burning bright
burning like forever then it fades away
who on this planet would ever refuse
the chance of a lifetime to love and lose
when time is of no importance
have you seen it slip away?
we wake in the morning and work all day
we dress up in the evening with nothing to say
just like a candle burning bright
burning like forever then it fades away
we wake in the morning and work all day
we dress up in the evening with nothing to say
just like a candle burning bright
burning like forever then it fades away |
| » Goodbye « |
Digging a hole down in your room
I watched you disappear too young, too soon
and you run out of stories to keep them entertained
all of the vampires forgot your name
you forgot why you came here today
and so you ran away
I said bye bye bye
when the world has passed you by
I will never forget your name
do you know why?
millions of people know what you did
but when it hit ya, you ran and hid
from the money and muscle
the rules of the game
they bought your face boy
they bought your name
you forgot why you came here today
and so you ran away
I said bye bye bye
when the world has passed you by
I will never forget your name
do you know why?
you forgot why you came here today
and so you ran away
I said bye bye bye
when the world has passed you by
I will never forget your name
do you know why?
I said bye bye bye
when the world has passed you by
I will never forget your name
do you know why? |

VERSE
You can talk to me about powder kegs
And how I'm sitting on one right now
You can warn me about candles
and whole things burning from the outside in
But don't tell me about true love
'Cause I don't think you really know
CHORUS
You need to pay the costs
You need to feel the loss
'Cause love is expensive and free
Love is expensive and free
VERSE
Talk to me about appearances
I tell ya' lately they mean less and less
Do your best to keep me occupied
It's hard to concentrate, I must confess
Don't you tell me about heartbreak
'Cause it ain't written in the stars
CHORUS
You need to pay the costs
You need to feel the loss
'Cause love is expensive and free
Love is expensive and free
Alright, you got me
VERSE
Don't you worry 'bout my baby
Her eyes are open all the time
I could never bare to see her
Much less remove her from my mind
I didn't talk to you about true love
I didn't think you'd understand
CHORUS
You need to pay the costs
You need to feel the loss
'Cause love is expensive and free
Love is expensive and free
Love is expensive and free |

Riding down the freeway, I've got to stay free
I need a little leeway and an angel to watch over me
don't give up on me
don't give up on me
cause I know I let you down girl
once, twice, or maybe three
I fell into temptation
won't you tell me that you'll wait for me
don't give up on me
don't give up on me
don't give up on me
don't give up on me
riding down the freeway, I've got to stay free
I need a little leeway and an angel to watch over me
don't give up on me
don't give up on me
don't give up on me
don't give up on me
don't give up on me, please
don't give up on me |
| » This Is Not My Life « |
Written by Miles Zuniga
This, this is not my life
This, this is not my life
This is not my face,
This is not my place, no it's just isn't right
This, this is not my life
You, do you remember me?
Remember, the way that it used to be.
Do you remember our car,
Do you remember our house,
Do you remember what it was like
Cause this, this is not my life
CHORUS:
My life, my life, (Now I live in the shadows)
My life, my life, (Because you are my life)
My life, my life,
My life
You're the only one, who can see, the real me
You're the only one, can't you see, can't you see...
You took away my world
You took away my world
You took away my smile,
You took away my life,
You took away my reason to live
You, you took away my world
And this is not my life
And this is not my life
CHORUS:
My life, my life, ('Cause now I live in the shadows)
My life, my life, (Because you are my life)
My life, my life, (And now it's endless night)
My life, my life, (And this is not my life)
My life, my life,
My life, my life |
| » Morning Star « |
As I wake I see a morning star
through the window dimly shines
its final statement at the closing of the day
I've got a few more minutes of night time before I rise
as the dawn is breaking through the darkness
the morning star will fade but never die
morning star, I can't see your face no more, and that's good
get out now, out on the streets of your nowhere neighborhood
as I laid down last night I felt no pain
the day went on without a sound
another night to put all the business away
I had a few more hours of night time before I'd rise
all the stars were out last night in the sky
I slept right through as they all went by
soon the dawn was breaking up the darkness
the morning star will fade but never die
morning star, I can't see your face no more, and that's good
get out now, out on the streets of your nowhere neighborhood
you come along with a color that I can't match
gold chain and a crystal ball attached
you're coming from the wrong direction
and as I sleep tonight I'll dream of you
sleeping somewhere far away
you come into my head so pretty and so true
I get a few more hours to dream of you till I rise
as the fireworks shoot off in the sky
I sleep right through as it all goes by
soon the darkness would suck up into the dawn
the morning star will fade but never die
morning star, I can't see your face no more, and that's good
get out now, out on the streets of your nowhere neighborhood
you come along with a code that I can't crack
gold chain and a crystal ball attached
you were coming from the wrong direction
you were coming from the wrong direction
you were coming from the wrong direction |
| » Time « |
Time's a teacher yesterday
you know I had nothing but time
why'd you have to go away
I never got to tell you goodbye
and time beats up on me
life is funny, life is strange
you know I'm just trying to get by
money, honey, buys you things
it can't buy a place in the sky
and time beats up on you
another year disappeared
where did it go?
people ask me
what's the time
I really don't know
I really don't know
I really don't
I really don't know
and time beats up on you
and time beats up on you
time beats up on
time beats up on
time beats up on
time beats up on
time beats up on me
beats up on you
beats up on you |

She will bring a little box of moonlight
To light my way on such a very dark night
Dreams so real they grow wild on the vine
Until sundown, when she comes
She comes just like a daydream
And the sun surrenders to the evening
I've waited all day long to be with you girl
We'll burn like falling stars tonight
And hide like vampires from the daylight
Until sundown
Dreams so real they grow wild on the vine
We'll burn like falling stars tonight
And hide like vampires from the daylight
Our world comes alive at night
And like the stars, they shine so bright
As long as you are mine
As long as you are mine
As long as you are mine |

I picked up the paper
flipped through the pages
reached for my coffee cup
yes, I'm still waking up
late in the day now
what can I say now
some folks are morning people
I never was one of those
all the same
I get in the game
give me muddy, muddy water
now I'm feeling better
you know whatever gets you on
and keeps you up right past the dawn
I'm feeling good now
I'm feeling great now
let's do the town now
vodka and tonic, a touch of the chronic
I'd trade my days for nights
I love the city lights
It's none of your business
who I might sleep with
some things are bad for me
and some things I just can't resist
all the same (I don't worry)
I get in the game (I don't worry)
give me muddy, muddy water
now I'm feeling better
you know, whatever gets you on
and keeps you up right past the dawn
I'm feeling good now
I'm feeling great now
let's do the town now
I'm feeling so free-wheelin'
that it's so hard to contain
fascinate me, medicate me
'cause I can't get over the pain
picked up the paper
flipped through the pages
coffee and cigarettes
turned on the tv set
night time is falling
people are calling
I like to watch them run
round and round and round and round
you know, whatever gets you on
and keeps you up right past the dawn
I'm feeling good now
I'm feeling great now
let's do the town now |
| » Wind Me Up « |
Funny how I couldn't see
this is not at all about you, it's about me
everything has happened the way it was meant to be
here's an opportunity for us to find
a way for me to tell you what's been on my mind
please forgive me, I don't mean to seem unkind
but you wind me up, so wind me up again
I feel the tug of war, it only seems to happen
when we open love's door
everything is back to the way it was before
can you tell the difference or is it the same
does it really count if we don't give it a name
please forgive me, I don't mean to seem insane
but you wind me up, better wind me up again
funny, but I thought you knew
all those things you think about I think about too
gotta seperate the unreal from what is true
here's an opportunity for us to find
a way for me to tell you what's been on my mind
please forgive me, I don't mean to seem unkind
but you wind me up, so wind me up again
(French Lyrics)
Quand le vin est tiré, il faut le boire / When the wine is opened, you
must drink it
Oh non, ce n'est pas grand chose / Oh no, it's nothing
Ce n'est qu'un emploi provisoire / It's only a temporary job
Oui, je comprends / Yes, I understand
Il a nié mordicus / He denied everything
Il trompe sa femme / He cheats on his wife
C'est du toc / It's all fake
C'était très visible / It was obvious
Mais j'ai entendu / But I heard
J'étais terriblement gênée / I was terribly embarrassed
C'est un cercle vicieux / It's a vicious circle
Il a pris la poudre d'escampette / He ran away
J'ai un maillot de bain à une pièce / I have a one-piece swim suit
Quand le vin est tire, il faut le boire
Oh non, ce n'est pas grand chose
Ce n'est qu'un emploi provisoire
Oui, je comprends
Il a nie mordicus
Il trompe sa femme
C'est du toc
C'etait tres visible
Mais j'ai entendu
J'etais terriblement genee
C'est un cercle vicieux
Il a pris la poudre d'escampette
J'ai un maillot de bain a une piece... |
| » You're An Ocean « |
Written by Tony Scalzo
VERSE
Can you make it easier for me to understand,
How you're holding my heart, in your trembling hands...
Eyes that rise to meet me half way up among the stars,
You may be from Venus but I'm definitely not from Mars
CHORUS
You're An Ocean, You're An Ocean
Settle Down, Settle Down,
What's the commotion,
I'm an island, but you're an ocean,
It's a stormy sea of love and emotion,
You've got me suspended motionless in time
VERSE
Make the warm winds circle round my head just like you do,
If I could do it, I'd be doing it to you,
I believe I'd buy whatever you would sell to me,
Nothing in my life ever came with a guarantee,
CHORUS
You're An Ocean, You're An Ocean
Settle Down, Settle Down,
What's the commotion,
I'm an island, but you're an ocean,
It's a stormy sea of love and emotion,
You've got me suspended motionless in time
BREAK
I believe I'd buy whatever you would sell to me,
Nothing in my life ever came with a guarantee,
You're An Ocean, You're An Ocean
Settle Down, Settle Down,
What's the commotion,
I'm an island, but you're an ocean,
It's a stormy sea of love and emotion,
You've got me suspended motionless in time |
