 Close your eyes, do what you wanna, 
baby, how can I wait much longer? 
Make it hard to believe it happened to me. 

Morning comes too late tomorrow, 
all you lose is the dream you borrow, 
all you got is a soul that’s born to be free. 

And cries to the wind, 
waiting for you, 
my dream will find you someday, 
I stand beside my vision of you 
and have you loving me. 

I still love you, aah. 
I still love you, aah. 

Though you’re my imagination, 
you be there when we find salvation, 
only then will there be no reason to hide. 

Stormy night out in the heaven, 
I believe in the true forever, 
there’s a bright new star when somebody dies. 

I cry to the wind, 
waiting for you, 
sweet love returning someday, 
the day you learn love happened to you 
you will be here with me. 

I still love you, aah (I still love you, I still love you) 
I still love you, aah (I love you, I love you) 
I’ll be waiting for you, 
sweet love returning someday, 
the day you learn love happened to you 
you will be here with me. 

I still love you, aah (I still love you, I still love you) 
I still love you, aah (I still love you, I still love you)…

Oh…
I should have stayed in bed
I didn’t think it’d be this way
I didn’t know you’d be walking past my house today
I should have stayed in bed instead of falling for you
Heaven only knows what your loving will do

Woe is me, I should have realized
what your love could do to me now
I should have stayed beneath the
blankets and sheets and maybe we couldn’t be

I should have stayed in bed instead of falling in love
I didn’t know what this heart of mine was thinking of
oh…

oh…

Woe is me, I should have realized

I started a joke,

that the joke was on me, oh no.
 
I started to cry,
which started the whole world laughing.
Oh, if I’d only seen
that the joke was on me.
 
I looked at the skies,
running my hands
over my eyes,
and I fell out of bed,
hurting my head
from things that I’d said.
 
Til I finally died,
which started the whole world living.
Oh, if I’d only seen
that the joke was on me.

You say you don’t need me.
I know where your love goes.
You go missing after midnight.
I should know better and the bed is cold.

And if you think I’m not the real thing.
I don’t wanna die of hunger.
I got my world created for you.
But you don’t stay.

Not my imagination no more.
I can’t be dealing with the bad girl
that lives in your head.
You got your someone, I, don’t cry.
You go and take a stranger’s love instead.

Over you is where I should be .
I could be loving you too much.
Under me is where you should be.
I could be loving you too much.

You know I love the way you do it
when you do it right.
You ain’t no one man woman.
Were you ever?

If you don’t come back running
when you’ve had enough.
And baby, you got it, I want it.
Show me what’s left of your love.

Over you is where I should be.
I could be loving you too much.
Under me is where you should be.
I could be loving you too much.

It won’t be no dirty weekend.
I stay with you for good.
He can be your outside lover.
I’ve got eyes.

I know he’s in your blood.
Just let me hold you for the hour.
I go where you lead me.
I need some inspiration from you.
I’m ready for the mystery, take me.

Don’t let me fall.
Don’t let me drown down here in the rain.
There is no alibi, don’t lie.
You love a stranger and the world is pain.

Over you is where I should be.
I could be loving you too much.
Under me is where you should be.
I could be loving you too much,
too much, too much,
too much, too much,
too much, too much,
too much, too much (come a little bit closer)…

I saw three ships come sailing in

I saw three ships come sailing in
On Christmas Day in the morning

And what was in those ships all three,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day?
And what was in those ships all three
On Christmas Day in the morning?

The Virgin Mary and Christ were there
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day
The Virgin Mary and Christ were there
On Christmas Day in the morning

Pray, wither sailed those ships all three
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day
Pray, wither sailed those ships all three
On Christmas Day in the morning?

And O they sailed into Bethlehem
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day
And O they sailed into Bethlehem
On Christmas Day in the morning

And all the bells on earth shall ring
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day
And all the bells on earth shall ring

Your lonely house is ended
There’s no fun or laughter
From this day, I’m your friend, girl
Is it love you’re after?

I just want; I just wanna take care of you
Don’t let me hear it’s over
I’ve heard that song so many times before
Don’t let me hear it again

You don’t have to hold me
Come down off your laughter
Is it true what you told me
That it’s love you’re after?
(Is it love you’re after?)

Ah, I just want; I just wanna take care of you
Don’t let me hear it’s over

Listen to song 
When I see you out of sight 
I don’t care to feel all right 
I just don’t like to be alone 

When you walk away from me 
Leave this man in misery 
I just don’t like to be alone 

And when I’m holding you 
I find the things you do when I’m with you 
I’m not blue, I’m not blue 

When I see you out of sight 
I don’t care to feel all right 
I just don’t like to be alone 

And when I’m holding you 
I find the things you do when I’m with you 
I’m not blue, I’m not blue

I don’t care to feel all right

Only last night when your arms held me tight
you told me you thought our love could last forever, forever.
I was the one that gave you all my love when I thought

I lay down and die.
The whole world joins in
and everyone cries
as teardrops begin.
I lay down and die.
 
And when darkness falls,
can’t seem right there at all.
I lay down and die.
The whole world joins in.
I lay down and die.
The teardrops begin.
I lay down and die.
And die, and die.
I lay down and die.
The whole world joins in.
I lay down and die
and the teardrops begin.
I lay down and die

The circus is coming to see you.
The elephant smiles.
Everybody can hear you
say that’s out of style.

My brother is friendly for reasons,
if I am the same.
Just for four hundred seasons
we all live in rain.

So I laugh in your face.
You’re only one race.
Yes, I laugh in your face
and I’m right.

You lie just like the rest.
But there’s nobody best.
So I laugh in your face
and I’m right.

I’ll pull out your plug
so you’re small.
You’ll slide down the drain.
On the steps of St. Peter’s,
you all look the same.

So I laugh in your face.
You’re only one race.
Yes, I laugh in your face
and I’m right.

You lie just like the rest.
But there’s nobody best.
So I laugh in your face
and I’m right.

And the feeling that I feel for you is more than strong, girl.
Take it from me.
If you give a little more than you’re asking for,
your love will turn the key.

Darling mine,
I would wait forever for those lips of wine.
Build my world around you, darling.
This love will shine, girl.
Watch it and see.
If you give a little more than you’re asking for,
your love will turn the key.

I, I just want to be your everything.
Open up the heaven in your heart and let me be
the things you are to me and not some puppet on a string.
Oh, if I stay here without you, darling, I will die.
I want you lying in the love I have to bring.
I’d do anything to be your everything.

I held a party and nobody came.
Strangely I was upset.
Poured out a drink and then Birkworth approached
saying ‘Have no regrets.
Maybe your gentle friends had some delay.
Don’t try to take on the world.’
 
Made up my bed and decided to sleep,
dreaming I was awake.
Maybe I drank in excess of my drink.
Nice clan, cordial crowd.
Birkworth suggested we sleep through the night.
I never knew him so well.
 
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
Ah, ah…

There ain’t a thing that you could give me,

That’s the only thing that satisfies my soul.

I don’t wanna be the one. Remember it was only fun.
Two strangers touching in the sun, it had to end.

I’m a fool, I’ve taken no advice,
and I’m so cruel, I’m talking to you nice,
but then again you may not take me back,
oh, just to put my handbag on your rack.
 
Guess I don’t know why I bother with myself.
You will find a part of me in someone else.
I never argued with the fact that she is mine.
I only hurt her and kissed her three times out of nine.
 
You have the edge to talk to men and make them feel at home.
You spent that every lasting cent on someone that’s not your own.

Bear with me there’s bound to be a chance
to heal the wound and start back our romance.
I gained a heart and part of it is yours.
Oh, just to see my love walk through these doors.
 
Oh, and my life’s bound out ahead, I cannot look,
and if you read me, then I am just a book.
You don’t care if rain falls in my room.
You won’t be there if trouble fills my spoon.
I’m just a clown that plays around with misery in my way,
forgetting all the rules of love…

Now that we’re alone.
No more hide and seek.
You are the highest dream to me.
And as you softly sleep
then I can tell you what it means.

Locked in my arms like lovers lie,
I will not let you slip away.
Is this the summer of them all.
Is this my night of nights
that you came to stay.

Here you are, owner of my heart,
just the way that love should be.
And there’s something I must say to you,
if you promise to believe
that it’s you I’m living for
and I could not love you more.

Seasons may come and seasons go
but these are the truest words I know.
Face to face, eye to eye.
This is the summer of of our lives.
One love that cannot die.

Here you are, owner of my soul,
never let you say goodbye.
And there is something I must say to you,
we leave the world outside
and you have come to me at last, we start.

Open up your heart,
let my deepest love inside.
I’m only doing what I have to do.
If you promise to believe
that I could not love you more.

Here you are (you are), owner of my heart,
just the way that love should be.
And there’s something I must say to you,
we leave the world outside
and you have come to me at last (at last), we start.

Open up your heart,

I’m only doing what I have to do.
If you promise to believe

I'm just trying to make my whole life through

You lived inside me
You caused me sorrow
And I should forgive you everything

I cannot give you my love

Always be in your world
No matter how far you fly
To the moon and back and back (and back)

I cannot give you my love
But I strive.

And we are oceans apart
But I follow my heart.
There is nothing, nothing that I would rather be.
I understand you,
You've got to be free (you've got to be free).

So fly away, butterfly.
Take it to your journey's end.
You are here today and gone tomorrow,

I should thank you for the flowers.
Can’t imagine how you came to think of those.
That same colour rose for me.
My world is made up of memories.
You and I, the laughter and tears.
You never need to worry.

I can’t see anything,
see anything but you.
There could be so many others,
but I can’t see anything,
see anything but you.

I remember all the good things,
when you held me for the first time.
Things were right
on that rainy night for us.
Love then, now and forever.
No time real and right where we are
as good as my eyes can be.

I can’t see anything,
see anything but you.
There could be some many others,
but I can’t see anything,
see anything but you.

No one ever cried.
No one ever stood in the way.
Everybody lies.
Everybody buys what love is today.
You can be a fool.
In the beginning, baby, you were there.
And when you’re winning,
what do you do?
Don’t ask me.

Do you love me woman, truly do you?
Can you feel this feeling going through you?

Are you of the mind
that we could live together through this night?

Or tell me you’re my virgin queen
and it may not be right.

But don’t make me say.
I can’t let you go.
And it’s breaking me down,

Just look at me now.
I feel a stranger inside,

When all this world of ours
is falling apart,
I’ll keep on hanging on

‘Cause everyone is just like me

surviving when they’re gone.
