Paperback writer

Dear Sir or Madam, will you read my book?
It took me years to write, will you take a look?
Based on a novel by a man named Lear
And I need a job, so I want to be a paperback writer,
Paperback writer.

It’s the dirty story of a dirty man
And his clinging wife doesn’t understand.
His son is working for the Daily Mail,
It’s a steady job but he wants to be a paperback writer,
Paperback writer.

Paperback writer

It’s a thousand pages, give or take a few,
I’ll be writing more in a week or two.
I can make it longer if you like the style,
I can change it round and I want to be a paperback writer,
Paperback writer.

If you really like it you can have the rights,
It could make a million for you overnight.
If you must return it, you can send it here
But I need a break and I want to be a paperback writer,
Paperback writer.

Todo por amor
(1993)

Smile
an everlasting smile,
a smile could bring you near to me.

E nao (And no,)
Nao quero nem pensar (I don’t want even think)
Chorar ao ver voce partir (of crying when you leave)

This world has lost its glory.
Let’s start a brand new story
now, my love.

Eu sei ( I know)
e tempo de amar (it’s time for loving)
E quero me entregar, amor (and I want to give myself to you, love)

Talk in everlasting words
and dedicate them all to me.
And I will give you all my life
I’m here if you should call to me.

Eu sei, palavras eu falei (I know I’ve said words)
e não acreditou (I didn’t mean)

O que fazer (What can I do)
Se eu tenho so palavras (if words are all I have)
Para conquistar voce (to take your heart away)

And you think
that I don’t even mean
a single word I say.

O que fazer (What can I do)
Se eu tenho so palavras (if words are all I have)
Para conquistar voce (to take your heart away)

It’s only words
and words are all I have
to take your heart away.

It’s only words
and words are all I have
to take your heart away.

They say a fool never learns,
you agree, I’m not superstitious,
you know unlucky as I’ve been I’m still around.
And you can tell me to go,
I’ve been reading your true confessions,
but then you don’t believe I’d let this chance go by.
 
Show me inside,
sorry that I’ve been so far away,
you know I’m only human,
it’s the call of the wild,
it’s the law of the jungle,
don’t say no.
 
Wanna be with you, won’t you stay with me overnight.
Give a little bit to you, won’t you stay with me, stay.
Pulling me to you, won’t you stay with me overnight.
It’ll be forever if you stay with me, stay with me, stay.
 
As long as time will allow, you’ll be losing your inhibitions.
One night is not enough for all the love to grow.
And, baby, you and I rule the world,
maybe I could be your magician,
just give me long enough
my spell will hypnotize.
 
Show me inside,
live in every corner of your heart.
You know I’m only human,
it’s the call of the wild,
it’s the law of the jungle,
don’t say no.
 
Wanna be with you, won’t you stay with me overnight.
Give a little bit to you, won’t you stay with me, stay.
Pulling me to you, won’t you stay with me overnight.
It’ll be forever if you stay with me, stay with me, stay.
Stay with me overnight, stay.
 
Stay with me overnight, stay.
Stay with me overnight, stay.
Stay with me, stay.
Stay with me, stay.
Stay with me, stay.
 
Wanna be with you, won’t you stay with me overnight.
Give a little bit to you, won’t you stay with me, stay.
Pulling me to you, won’t you stay with me overnight.
It’ll be forever if you stay with me, stay with me, stay.

Oh I know you’re out of line
Yes I know you’re out of line

    I’m lying in my bed, all alone
Called you once again, no one is home
It’s raining outside, on Saturday night
Turning out the light, again I tried

My friends say I’m too good, too good for you
And maybe that is true, well I don’t care
What do they all know, they got it all wrong
This is so unfair, they’re playing our song

Nobody gets too much heaven no more
It’s much harder to come by
I’m waiting in line
Nobody gets too much love anymore
It’s as high as a mountain
And harder to climb

Something’s going on, what is wrong
I want you to be here, why won’t you come
And spend some time with me, can’t you see
Have we come undone
Is this the end of our song

Nobody gets too much heaven no more
It’s much harder to come by
I’m waiting in line
Nobody gets too much love anymore
It’s as high as a mountain
And harder to climb

Nobody gets too much heaven no more
It’s much harder to come by
I’m waiting in line
Nobody gets too much love anymore
It’s as high as a mountain
And harder to climb

[BRIDGE]
How do I deal
With how I feel
How to reveal
Oooh… what is real love
As another day fades away
So I say

Nobody gets too much heaven no more
It’s much harder to come by
I’m waiting in line
Nobody gets too much love anymore
It’s as high as a mountain
And harder to climb

Nobody gets too much heaven no more
It’s much harder to come by
I’m waiting in line
Nobody gets too much love anymore
It’s as high as a mountain
And harder to climb

Maybe I don’t wanna know the reason why.
But lately you don’t talk to me.
Darling, I can’t see me in your eyes.
 
I hold you near but you’re so far away.
And it’s losing you I can’t believe,
to watch you leave and let this feeling die.
 
You alone
are the living thing that keeps me alive.
And tomorrow
if I’m here without your love,
you know I can’t survive.
Only my love can raise you high above it all.
 
Don’t throw it all away, our love, our love.
Don’t throw it all away, our love.
Don’t throw it all away, our love, our love.
Don’t throw it all away, our love.
 
We can take the darkness and make if full of light.
But let your love flow back to me.
How can you leave and let this feeling die.
 
This happy room will be a lonely place when you are gone.
And I won’t even have your shoulders for the crying on .
No other woman’s love could be as true, I’m begging you…
 
Don’t throw it all away, our love, our love.
Don’t throw it all away, our love.
Don’t throw it all away, our love, our love.
Don’t throw it all away, our love.
 
We changed the world, we made it ours to hold.
But dreams are made for those who really try.
This losing you is real.
But I still feel you here inside.
 
Don’t throw it all away, our love, our love.
Don’t throw it all away, our love.
Don’t throw it all away, our love, our love.
Don’t throw it all away, our love….

There’ll be one small light all over the world tonight.
The search will go on for the one.
It was love with no name
and we glowed in the sun.
 
There was one small dream,
incredible highs and lows,
what little we knew living ordinary lives (lives).
Made a dream for you, living ordinary lives (lives).
 
Ordinary people living ordinary lives.
Ordinary people living ordinary lives.
 
We were ordinary people living ordinary lives.
We were ordinary people living ordinary lives.
 
The clock on the wall keeps moving,
time stands still,
no matter how the dice may fall,
someone else always gets to call the number.
 
Say goodbye cruel world.
No pity no pain tonight.
Whatever the cost all is lost.
If this is love with no name,
then it’s all in the stars.
 
Whether it’s wrong (wrong) or right,
there’s no one to blame no (no) lies.
What else could we do
living ordinary lives (lives)?
Made a dream for you,
living ordinary lives (lives).
 
Oh, oh. We were ordinary people living ordinary lives.
We were ordinary people living ordinary lives.
We were ordinary people.
 
What else could we do,

Oh, oh. We were ordinary people living ordinary lives.
We were ordinary people living ordinary lives.
We were ordinary people living ordinary lives.

I ain’t got time, only got a dime to make a last call.
I’m getting soaking wet and it ain’t rained yet since last fall.
I got myself a coach ticket on the Southern railroad line.
I don’t have to worry ‘cause I know it never leaves on time.
 
Late last night we made love and everything was all right.
You walked out the door and the only thing I saw was the hall light.
I got myself a coach ticket on the Southern railroad line.
I don’t have to worry ‘cause I know it never leaves on time.
 
Why didn’t you see that you don’t feel the same way as I do?
I understood before that you couldn’t take much more as I knew.
I got myself a coach ticket on the Southern railroad line.
I don’t have to worry ‘cause I know it never leaves on time.

And I’ve got a picture
Of the woman I love, oh

Who sees her lovely face? Who sees my shame?
Nobody in the place can tell me her name

Cause she was only one woman, only one woman
And I’ve got a picture
Of the woman I love

Ten little Indians now there are none
I bet there are many and life still goes on

Cause she was only one woman, only one woman
Well, she was only one woman, only one woman

One road to happiness
One road to loneliness
The devil’s hand or the promised land
Which one will you choose?

Life is a strange thing
It can make you happy or sad
There’s two roads that you can take
The good one or the bad

One road to happiness
One road to loneliness
The devil’s hand or the promised land
Which one will you choose?

You may take the long road
Lots of people do
But you will find no peace of mind
Till Jesus comes to you

One road to happiness
One road to loneliness
The devil’s hand or the promised land
Which one will you choose?

If you take the bad roadyou will never see
The happiness that you would find through all eternity

One road to happiness
One road to loneliness
The devil’s hand or the promised land
Which one will you choose?

One road to happiness
One road to loneliness
The devil’s hand or the promised land
Which one will you choose?

I send you down my love tonight
on a dream that I can hold you near.
Will the message in your eyes
take shape and crystalize?
Or will you disappear?
That feeling when you sigh.
I could not want you more.
 
Ah, so close and yet so far.
And you know it’s where we are.
And the moment I have waited for.
 
The rhythm of the turning tide,
and every star that shines in harmony,
like the fairy tale you read,
like the only heart you need,
is here inside of me.
 
And we are held in time.
Your love lost in mine.
 
There is no yesterday.
Just the music on the bay.
We can lie together.
Make forever..
 
One night for lovers.
Kiss your lover tonight.
 
On a night like this you lie awake,
and no one can tell you why
you fall in love, and love takes over
with no goodbye.
 
I’m dancing in your arms.
Tonight I’d give my life for you
if you were….
 
Mia, no te voy a hacer llorar. (Mine, I won’t make you cry)
Dime lo que quieres, mi amor (Tell me what you want, my love)
 
It’s the way it has to be.
If I get you close to me
I will not let you go.
 
Say you’ll be in my arms.
Don’t make me wait so long.
 
Ah, love me with your lips.
Touch me with your touch.
Fill me up with one anticipation.
 
One night for lovers.
Kiss your lover tonight.
 
On a night like this you lie awake
and no one can tell you why
you fall in love and love takes over
and there is no goodbye.
 
I’m dancing in your arms
and I’m close enough to know,
you make me yours,
and you,
you’re mine.
You’re mine.
 
And the wonder of it all,
when tomorrow comes, I call you mine.
I’m the promise you fulfill.
In a lifetime you will still be mine.

Your eyes will shine like new, yeah
I close my eyes and you’re nowhere
And I’ll wait for you for one million years
 
My face has long been wet
Ever since we met
We wed, I knew she’d stay
Then I passed away

And in my way I made you love me.
And through it all, there’s gotta be.

One love is better than many.
Who cares what magic dream
there might have been.
I’m lonely for one love.
I live without any.
Your love, the dream,
make it real.
 
This time I’m someone else.
I’m not the one who hurt you.
You are my destiny.
The love light inside of me.
And who am I, if not for you.
An empty soul with no tomorrow.
Smiling eyes or starless skies.

Just as my life fades to darkness,
you make me see the light.
Show me that my search is over,
I pay the price, I pay the price.
 
I tell you someday,

Do it always,

two souls become entwined.
Someday,

So I’m standing ‘round this corner
tall enough to touch the New York sky, oh yeah.
My love is so blind
I just cannot hear or see the world go by, oh yeah.
 
Someone can love so completely,
one kiss should break the seal.
Truth can be stranger than fiction,
this love is real,

Ah, we are one, we are one.
 
I will follow,
count on me, I’ll never let you down, oh yeah.
My devotion,

You’ll be my only possession,
I’ll be a slave to you.
We hold the power together,
just me and you,
just me and you.
 
I tell you someday (someday),

Transcribed by

    Once in royal David’s city
Stood a lowly cattle shed
Where a mother laid her Baby
In a manger for His bed
Mary was that mother mild
Jesus Christ, the little Child

He came down to earth from heaven
Who is God and Lord of all
And His shelter was a stable
And His cradle was a stall
With the poor, and mean, and lowly
Lived on earth our Saviour holy

And our eyes at last shall see Him
Through His own redeeming love
For that Child so dear and gentle
Is our Lord in heaven above
And He cares when we are sad
And He shares when we are glad

Ooh, ooh, ooh ooh…
 
We set the same scene.
Circumstances different than they
might have been.
People in two places can be
pulled into a scheme.
Never what you’re fighting for.
 
Life alone.
Lose a lover’s arms.
Never makes it easy when you try too hard.
I wish you would define what you feel.
Hard on or letting go.
 
I’m the Omega Man.
Stand tall and understand.
Everybody needs a plan.
Mine is a better way.
There’ll be trouble in the world.
Sex and the single girl.
I’m an over-eager man.
Find me a better way.
Find me a better way.
 
We share the same pain.
Underneath the covers I will set you free.
I will prove to you my love is
older than the sky,
stronger than the night is long.
 
Lord of hearts,
leader of us all,
let it be together if we rise or fall.
Or is it just my imagination,
or the light of a precious stone.
 
You’ll never be alone.
 
I’m the Omega Man.
I travel over land.
Everybody needs a plan.

There’ll be trouble in the world.
Sex and the single girl.
I’m an over-eager man.
Find me a better way.
Find me a better way.
 
Here at the scene of the crime.
Laid in your arms I will die.
I know it’s more than infatuation
that’s keeping this man alive.
 
I’m the Omega Man.
Stand tall and understand.
Everybody needs a plan.
Mine is a better way.

Every season of my life
People say it, she go far
I exceeded what as needed
Don’t you wanna know what I came here for
 
Turn the lights way down
I will find you somewhere in the dark
I’m lying with you, you’re lying with me
I wanna to show you what I know so far
 
By doing it right
I’m working on my design
I’m making love with a friend of mine
I wanna do it, I’ll get you through it
There’s nothing to it
You won’t be leaving me without a star
 
Oh teacher, you get the test of my love
No matter what you learn
Oh teacher you got the best time, the last time
But this time you’re gonna get burned
 
Oh teacher, you made me study all night
After the end of term
Oh teacher,you’ve got the first time, the last time
But this time you’re gonna get burned
 
Walk, think, act
As the book to you defines
Reach out for the one you love
It may be someone you left behind
 
You’re the reason that I breathe
You’re the savior of my nights
Did I leave you without a lover
But I’ll never let you out of sight
 
You’re gonna be mine
I’ve got a wider range
We keep the system but the rules may change
My lips are wetter, I do it better
And if you let me I will help you grow
Baby, don’t say no
 
Oh teacher, you get the test of my love
No matter what you learn
Oh teacher, you’ve got the best time, the last time
But this time you’re gonna get burned
 
Oh teacher, you made me study all night
After the end of term
Oh teacher, you’ve got the first time, the last time
But this time you’re gonna get burned
 
Talk, move, smile
Do it right
We know the way
Watch out for the danger lies
In any game that you wanna play
In any game
 
Oh teacher, you get the test of my love
No matter what you learn
Oh teacher, you’ve got the best time, the last time
But this time you’re gonna get burned
 
Oh teacher, you made me study all night
After the end of term
Oh teacher, you’ve got the first time, the last time
But this time you’re gonna get burned.

Oh Darling

Oh! darling, please believe me,
I’ll never do you no harm.
Believe me when I tell you
I’ll never do you no harm.
 
Oh! darling, if you leave me
I’ll, I’ll never make it alone.
So believe me when I beg you
don’t you ever leave me alone.
 
When you told me you didn’t need me anymore,
well you know I nearly broke down and cried.
When you told me you didn’t need me anymore,
well you know I nearly broke down and died.
 
Oh! darling, if you leave me
I’ll never make it alone.
So believe me when I tell you
I’ll never do you no harm.
 
When you told me you didn’t need me anymore,
well you know, you know I nearly broke down and cried.
When you told me you didn’t need me anymore,
well you know, you know I nearly broke down and died.
 
Oh! darling, please believe me,
I’ll never let you down.
So believe me when I tell you
I’ll never do you no harm.

Odessa
(1969)

Fourteenth of February, eighteen ninety-nine,
the British ship Veronica was lost without a sign.
 
Baa baa black sheep,
you haven’t any wool.
Captain Richardson
left himself a lonely wife in Hull.
 
Cherub,
I lost a ship in the Baltic sea.
I’m on an iceberg running free.
 
Sitting,
filing this berg to the shape of a ship;
sailing my way back to your lips.
One passing ship gave word that
you have moved out of your old flat,
you love the Vicar more than words can say.
Tell him to pray
that I won’t melt away and I’ll see your face again.
 
Odessa, how strong am I?
Odessa, how time goes by.
 
Treasure,
you know the neighbours that live next door,
they haven’t got their dog anymore.
 
Freezing,
sailing around in the North Atlantic,
can’t seem to leave the sea anymore.
I just can’t understand
why you just moved to Finland.
You love that Vicar more than words can say.
Ask him to pray
that I won’t melt away and I’ll see your face again.
 
Odessa, how strong am I?
Odessa, how time goes by.
 
Oooh, ooooh….
Fourteenth of February, eighteen ninety-nine,
the British ship Veronica was lost without a sign.
