George Michael Album

Written by George Michael

Somebody told me
Boy everything she wants is everything she sees
I guess I must have loved you
Because I said you were the perfect girl for me, baby

And now we're six months older
And everything you want and everything you see
Is out of reach not good enough
I don't know what the hell you want from me

Somebody tell me
(won't you tell me)
Why I work so hard for you
(To give you money, work to give you money)

Some people work for a living
Some people work for fun
Girl I just work for you
They told me marriage was give and take
Well you've shown me you can take
You've got some giving to do
And now you tell me that your having my baby
I'll tell you that I'm happy if you want me to
But one step further and my back will break
If my best isn't good enough
Then how can it be good enough for two

I can't work any harder than I do

Somebody tell me
(won't you tell me)
Why I work so hard for you
(To give you money, work to give you money)

Oh why do I do the things I do
I'd tell you if I knew
My God, I don't even think that I love you

(Won't you tell me)
(To give you money, work to give you money)

How could you settle
For a boy like me
When all I could see
Was the end of the week
All the things we sign
And the things we buy
Ain't gonna keep us together
It's just a matter of time

My situation
Never changes
Walking in and out of that door
Like a stranger
For the wages
I give you all
You say you want more

And all I could see
Was the end of the week
All the things we sign
And the things we buy
Ain't gonna keep us together
Girl it's just a matter of time

Written by George Michael

Jitterbug
Jitterbug
Jitterbug
Jitterbug

You put the boom-boom into my heart
You send my soul sky high
When your loving starts
A jitterbug into my brain
It goes bang, bang, bang
Till my feet do the same

But something's bugging me
Something ain't right
My best friend told me what you did last night
You left me sleeping in my bed
I was dreaming
But I should have been with you instead

Chorus:
Wake me up before you go-go
Don't leave me hanging on like a yo-yo
Wake me up before you go-go
I don't wanna miss it when you hit that high
Wake me up before you go-go
'Cos I'm not planning on going solo
Wake me up before you go-go
Take me dancing tonight

You put the grey skies out of my way
You make the sun shine brighter than Doris Day
Turned a bright spark into a flame
My beats per minute never been the same

'Cos you're my lady I'm your fool
It makes me crazy when you act so cruel
Come on baby lets not fight
We'll go dancing
Everything wiil be alright

(Chorus)

Cuddle up baby, move in tight
We'll go dancing tomorrow night
It's cold out there but it's warm in bed
They can dance We'll stay at home instead

(Repeat chorus to fade)

Written by George Michael

Every day I hear a different story
People say that you're no good for me
Sow you lover with another
She's making a fool of you
If you loved me baby, you'd deny it
But you laugh and tell me I should try it
Tell me I'm a baby and I don't understand
But you know that I'll forgive you
Just this once, twice, forever
'Cos baby, you could drag me to hell and back
As long as we're together
And you do

Chorus:
I don't want your freedom
I don't want to play around
I don't want nobody, baby
Part time love just brings me down
I don't want your freedom
Girl, all I want right now is you

Like a prisoner who has his own key
But I can't escape until you love me
I just go from day to day
Knowing all about the other boys
(Oh oh ...)
You take my hand and tell me I'm a fool
To give you all that I do
I bet you someday, baby
Someone says the same to you
But you know that I'll forgive you
Just this once, twice, forever
'Cos baby, you could drag me to hell and back
Just as long as we're together
And you do

Chorus:

You're hurting me, baby
You're hurting me, baby
Oh oh ...
You're hurting me, baby
You're hurting me, baby
But you know that I'll forgive you
Just this once, twice, forever
'Cos baby, you could drag me to hell and back
Just as long as we're together
And you do

Chorus:

I don't want your
I don't want your
I don't want your
I don't want your

To fade ...

well I guess it would be nice
if I could touch your body
I know not everybody
has got a body like you

but I've got to think twice
before I give my heart away
and I know all the games you play
because I play them too

oh but I
need some time off from that emotion
time to pick my heart up off the floor
and when that love comes down
without devotion
well it takes a strong man baby
but I'm showing you the door
'cause I've gotta have faith

baby
I know you're asking me to stay
say please please please don't go away
you say I'm giving you the blues
maybe
you mean every word you say
can't help but think of yesterday
and another one who tied me down to
loverboy rules

before this river becomes an ocean
before you throw my heart back on the floor
oh baby I reconsider
my foolish notion
well I need someone to hold me
but I'll wait for something more

yes I've gotta have faith...

(George Michael)

Hey, you're just too funky for me,
I gotta get inside of you,
And I'll show you heaven if you let me.
Hey you just too funky for me,
I gotta get inside, (I gotta get inside)
I gotta get inside of you (So then you will that be).
I watch your fingers working overtime (Overtime),
I got to thinking that they should be mine. Oh!
I'd love to see you naked baby,
I'd like to think that sometime maybe
Tonight, if that's all right. Yeah!

Hey, you're just too funky for me,
I gotta get inside of you , (Won't let you go)
Won't let you, no-no
Hey you're just too funky for me,
I gotta get inside, (I gotta get inside)
I gotta get inside of you (I'll let you love me).
I watch you drinkin' and I take my time,
I watch you drinkin' all that cheap red wine, Oh!
I've got to see you naked baby,
I'd like to think that sometime maybe,
Tonight my goal's in sight, Yeah!

Baby, baby, baby Why do you do this to me?
Won't let you go, (Won't let you go)
You're such a, you're such a
Baby, baby, baby Why do you do this to me?
I've got to know. (I've got to know)
(I'm gonna be the kind of lover that you never had)
Hey you're just too funky.
(You're never gonna have another lover in your bed)
You're just too funky for me.

(Would you like me to seduce you, is that what you're trying to tell me?)
(Everybody wants a lover like that)
Baby
(Everybody wants a lover like that) Yeah! Yeah!
(Everybody wants a lover like that) Everybody, everybody
(Everybody wants a lover like that)
(Is that what you are trying to tell me?)
(Everybody wants a lover, everybody wants a lover like that.
Everybody wants a lover, everybody wants a lover like that.
Everybody wants a lover, everybody wants a lover like that.
Everybody wants a lover, everybody wants a lover like that.)
(Would you like me to seduce you?)
You're such a, you're such a
(Would you like me to seduce you?) Yeah! Yeah!
(Would you like me to seduce you?) you're such a, you're such a.
Yeah! Yeah!

looking for some education
made my way into the night
all that bullshit conversation
well baby can't you read the signs

I won't bore you with the details baby
I don't even want to waste your time
let's just say that maybe
you could help to ease my mind
baby, I ain't Mr. Right

chorus
but if you're looking for fastlove
if that's love in your eyes
it's more than enough
had some bad luck
so fastlove is all that I've got on my mind

what's there to think about baby?

looking for some affirmation
made my way into the night
my friends got their ladies
they're all having babies
but I just want to have some fun

I win't bore you with the details baby
gonna get there in your own sweet time
let's just say that maybe
you could help to ease my mind
baby, I ain't Mr. Right

chorus

what's there to think about baby?
get yourself some lessons in love

in the absence of security
I made my way into the night
stupid cupid keeps on calling me
but I see nothing in his eyes
I miss my baby
I miss my baby, tonight
so why don't we make a little room
in my BMW babe
searching for some peace of mind
I help you find it
I do believe that we are practicing
the same religion
you really ought to get up now

looking for some affirmation?

(George Michael)

I won't let you down
I will not give you up
gotta have some faith in the sound
it's the one good thing that I've got
I won't let you down
so please don't give me up
because I would really, really love to stick around

heaven knows I was just a young boy
didn't know what I wanted to be
I was every little hungry schoolgirls pride and joy
and I guess it was enough for me
to win the race? a prettier face!
brand new clothes and a big fat place
on your rock and roll TV
but today the way I play the game is not the same
no way
think I'm gonna get me some happy

I think there's something you should know
I think it's time I told you so
there's something deep inside of me
there's someone else I've got to be
take back your picture in a frame
take back your singing in the rain
I just hope you understand
sometimes the clothes do not make the man

chorus
all we have to do now
is take these lies and make them true somehow
all we have to see
is that I don't belong to you
and you don't belong to me
freedom
you've gotta give for what you take
freedom
you've gotta give for what you take

heaven knows we sure had some fun boy
what a kick just a buddy and me
we had every big-shot goodtime band on the run boy
we were living in a fantasy
we won the race
got out of the place
I went back home got a brand new face
for the boys on MTV
but today the way I play the game has got to change
oh yeah
now I'm gonna get myself happy

I think there's somethig youshould know
I think it's time I stopped the show
there's something deep inside of me
there's someone I forgot to be
take back your picture in a frame
take back your singing in the rain
I just hope you understand
sometimes the clothes do not make the man

chorus

well it looks like the road to heaven
but it feels like the road to hell
when I knew which side my bread was buttered
I took the knife as well
posing for another picture
everybody's got to sell
but when you shake your ass
they notice fast
and some mistakes were build to last

that's what you get

I say that's what you get

that's what you get for changing your mind

and after all this time
I just hope you understand
sometimes the clothes do not make the man

I'll hold on to my freedom
may not be what you want from me
just the way it's got to be
lose the face now
I've got to live

(George Michael)

spin the wheel

five o'clock in the morning
you ain't home
I can't help thinking that's strange
baby I just want you to know
I won't go through it again
yes, those clouds are closing in

chorus
and I will not accept this as a part of my life
I will not live in fear of what may be
and the lessons I have learned...
I would rather be alone then watch you
spinning that wheel for me
+
you've got a thing about danger
ain't you getting what you want from me
you've got a thing about strangers
baby that's what we used to be
you've got a thing about danger baby
I guess the hungry just can't see
one of these days
you're gonna bring some home to me

six o'clock in the morning you ain't phoned
I can't help thinking that's strange
it seems that everybody takes
their chances
these days
oh yeah, we're standing in the rain

chorus

how can you love me
when you are playing with my life
you say give me time and I'll do better I swear
give me time and I'll lead you back to despair

and I don't want to go back there

(George Michael/Jon Douglas)

I think I'm done with the sofa
I think I'm done with the hall
I think I'm done with the kitchen table, baby

let's go outside (let's go outside)
in the sunshine
I know you want to, but you can't say yes
Let's go outside
in the moonshine
take me to the places that I love best

So my angel she says, don't you worry
'bout the things they're saying, yeah
got no friends in high places
and the game that you gave away
wasn't worth playing

let's go outside
in the sunshine
I know you want to, but you can't say yes
let's go outside
in the meantime
take me to the places that I love best

and yes I've been bad
doctor won't you do with me what you can
you see I think about it all the time
twenty four seven

you say you want it, you got it
I never really said it before
there s nothing here but flesh and bone
there's nothing more nothing more
there's nothing more

back to nature, just human nature
getting on back to

I think I m done with the sofa
I think I m done with the hall
I think I'm done with the kitchen table, baby

let's go outside
in the sunshine
I know you want to, but you can't say yes
let's go outside
in the moonshine
take me to the places that I love best

and yes I've been bad
doctor won't you do with me what you can
you see I think about it all the time
I'd service the community
(but I already have you see!)
I never really said it before

there's nothing here but flesh and bone
there's nothing more, nothing more
there's nothing more
let's go outside
dancing on the D-train baby

when the moon is high
and the grass is jumpin'
come on, just keep on funkin'

As around the sun the Earth knows she's revolving
And the rosebuds know to bloom in early May
Just as hate knows love's the cure
You can rest your mind assure
That I'll be loving you always

As now can't reveal the mystery of tomorrow
But in passing will grow older every day
Just as all is born is new
Do you know what I say is true
That I'll be loving you always

Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
Until the day that 8x8x8 is 4
Until the day is the day that are no more

Did you know that true love asks for nothing
Her acceptance is the way we pay
Did you know that life has given love a guarantee
To last through forever and another day

As today I know I'm living but tomorrow
Could make me the past
but that I mustn't fear
I know deep in my mind
The love of me I've left behind
Cause I'll be loving you always

Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea
Until we dream of live and live becomes a dream
Until the day is night and night becomes the day
Until the trees and seas just up and fly away
Until the day that 8x8x8 is 4
Until the day that is the day that are no more

did you know that true love asks for nothing
her acceptance is the way we pay
did you know that life has given love a guarantee
to last through forever and another day

As around the sun the earth knows she's revolving
and the rosebuds know to bloom in early May
for now I know deep in my mind
the love of me I've left behind
cause I'll be loving you always

Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea
Until we dream of live and live becomes a dream

Until the day is night and night becomes the day
Until the trees and seas just up and fly away
Until the day that 8X8X8 is 4

No matter what you put me through

Written by George Michael / Jon Douglas

I was mixed up when you came to me
Too broke to fix
Said ‘daddy get you gone, I'm missing my baby'
Still missing my baby…

I was stitched up by the hands of fate
Said how you gonna make it on your own
If luck is a lady?
Maybe luck is a lady

I was going down for the third time
My heart was broken, I was not open to your suggestions
I had so many questions
That you just kissed away

Tell me, I guess that cupid was in disguise
The day you walked in and changed my life
I think it's amazing,
The way that love can set you free

So now I walk in the midday sun
I never thought that my saviour would come
I think it's amazing
I think it's amazing

I think you're amazing

You tried to save me from myself
Said 'Darling ,kiss as many as you want!
My love's still available
And I know you're insatiable'

We're like victims of the same disease
Look at your Big Bad Daddy, and your mom
And your mom ….was always acting crazy

I was going down for the third time
My heart was broken, I thought that loving you
was out of the question
Then I saw my reflection
Saying please don't let this go

Tell me, I guess that cupid was in disguise
The day you walked in and changed my life
I think it's amazing,
The way that love can set you free
So now I walk in the midday sun
I never thought that my saviour would come
I think it's amazing
I think you're amazing

Celebrate the love of the one you're with

Celebrate, this life with you baby
I think you should celebrate yeah
Don't put your love in chains baby
No no, walk in the midday sun
I thought I was dreaming
I think it's amazing
I think you're amazing

I said celebrate the love of the one you're with

As this life gets colder
And the devil inside

Written by George Michael

'Cause you're beautiful (Like no other)
'Cause you're beautiful (maybe tonight, they'll see you tonight)

Beautiful .... beautiful

And it's no good waiting by the window
It's no good waiting for the sun
Please believe me, the things you dream of
They don't fall in the laps of no-one

And it's no good . . . Waiting, waiting
And it's no good . . . Waiting

You've got to go to the city

Always the same
Always the same dreams yeah yeah
Always the same (yes you're movin' up)

Well you've got to think of something
'Cause your job pays you nothing
But you've got the things God gave you
So the music may yet be your saviour

Got to be a way, some way
Got to be some way to make your way to the light (All the girls say)
Got to be some way, today, today, maybe tonight, maybe tonight

And it's always the same . . .
Always the same dreams yeah yeah
Always the same (yes you're movin' up)

You're beautiful, you are, and you know it
You're wasted here, you're a star
In this small town of hand-me-downs who don't even know it

Sometimes it brings you down
Sometimes it eats you up
Sometimes you think that your head's going to blow
It doesn't get better . . .

Don't you know, you've got to go to the city
You've got to reach the other side of the glass
I think you'll make it in the city baby
I think you know that you are more than just
Some fucked up piece of ass

Got to be a way, some way
Got to be some way to make your way to the light (All the boys say)
Got to be some way, today, today, maybe tonight,
They'll see you tonight

And it's always the same
A lways the same
Always the same dreams yeah yeah
Always the same (yes you're movin' up)

Cause you're beautiful (like no other)
Cause you're beautiful (take me, make me)
Cause you're beautiful (maybe tonight, they'll see you tonight)

Beautiful .... beautiful

And it's no good waiting by the window
It's no good waiting for the sun
Please believe me, the things you dream of
They don't fall in the laps of no-one

And it's no good . . . Waiting, waiting
And it's no good . . . Waiting

You've got to go to the city
You've got to go to the city,
They're going to find you there

'Cause you're beautiful
'Cause you're beautiful

Sometimes it brings you down
Sometimes it eats you up
Sometimes you think that your head's going to blow and
It doesn't get better . . .

Don't you know, you've got to go to the city
You've got to reach the other side of the glass
I think you'll make it in the city baby
I think you know that you are more than just
Some fucked up piece of ass

More than just ...

Sid you've got to think of something
'Cause your job pays you nothing
But you've got the things God gave you
So the music may yet be your saviour

Do you want a saviour, saviour
Say that you do,
You know you're wasted here, wasted here

Here comes one for the ladies
For the ones who love me
To think I thought I could be some kind of family man
I told myself I was straight
But I shouldn’t have worried
‘Cos my Maker had a better plan for me

And I’m dancing with the freaks now
I'm havin’, I’m havin’ so much fun
What you sow is what you reap now
I’ll do my dance with everyone
I’ve been getting too much Sun
(Yes I’m dancin’ with the freaks now)
We’re havin’, we’re havin’ too much fun for them
Look who’s talking Guilty feet now…

Well let me tell you people
It’s an easier affair
Not living my life with other people on my mind
No, got nothing to hide from anyone
Yes, I’m walking on new air
Just living my life
Better believe I'm gonna get what’s mine
See I don’t have the time
For the haters

And all the time that I wasted
How careless of me
Too young and stupid to see
I put my life in their hands
(Gonna look for Cupid, man)
Oh, and I know that they want me to hate them
There’s no hurry
I’ll just have to be the bigger man

Dancin’ with the freaks now
I’m havin’, I’m havin’ so much fun
What you sow is what you reap now
I’ll do my dance with everyone
I’ve been getting too much Sun
If I turn the other cheek now
Would that be, would that be too much fun for them?
Look who’s talking
Guilty feet now…

Well let me tell you people
It’s an easier affair
Not livin’ my life with other people on my mind
No, got nothing to hide from anyone
‘Cos I’m walking on new air
Just living my life
Better believe I’m gonna get what’s mine
See I don’t have the time for the haters

Don’t let them tell you who you are is not enough
Don’t let them tell you that it’s wrong
Or that you won’t find love

Don’t let them use my life to put your future down
Don’t let them tell you that happiness can’t be found

For my life

Take it to the streets
There are stories you can keep
They’re just passing you by

Don’t let them tell you who you are is not enough
Don’t let them tell you that it’s wrong
Or that you won’t find love

Don’t let them use my life to put your future down
Don’t let them tell you that happiness can’t be found

Time can never mend the careless whispers, of a good friend
To the heart and mind, ignorance is kind
There's no comfort in the truth 
Pain is all you'll find

Should've known better

I feel so unsure
As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor
As the music dies, something in your eyes
Calls to mind the silver screen
And all its sad good-byes

I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know your not a fool

Should've known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I've been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you

Time can never mend
The careless whispers of a good friend
To the heart and mind
Ignorance is kind
There's no comfort in the truth
Pain is all you'll find

I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know your not a fool

Should've known better than to cheat a friend
And waste this chance that I've been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you

Never without your love

Tonight the music seems so loud
I wish that we could lose this crowd
Maybe it's better this way
We'd hurt each other with the things we'd want to say

We could have been so good together
We could have lived this dance forever
But no one's gonna dance with me
Please stay

And I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm 
Though it's easy to pretend
I know your not a fool

Should've known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I've been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you

(Now that you're gone) Now that you're gone
(Now that you're gone) What I did's so wrong
That you had to leave me alone

Written by George Michael

Chorus:
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, you gave it away
This year to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special (X2)

Once bitten and twice shy
I keep my distance, but you still catch my eye
Tell me baby, do you recognise me?
Well, it's been a year, it doesn't surprise me

(Happy Christmas)

I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying "I love you" I meant it
Now I know what a fool I've been
But if you kissed me now, I know you'd fool me again

(Repeat chorus)

A crowded room, friends with tired eyes
I'm hiding from you and your soul of ice
My god I thought you were someone to rely on
Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man undercover but you tore me apart (ooh, ooh)
Now I've found a real love, you'll never fool me again

(Repeat chorus X2)

(Gave you my heart)
(You gave me away)


(A face on a lover with a fire in his heart)
(A man undercover but you tore me apart)

(Maybe, next year)
(I'll give it to someone)
(I'll give it to someone special)


(I'll give it to someone)
(I'll give it to someone special)
Ooh, give me something in return
Hold my heart and watch it burn

(I'll give it to someone)
(I'll give it to someone special)

I thought you were here to stay
How can love be for a day?

(I thought you were someone special)

(Gave you my heart)

(I'll give it to someone)
(I'll give it to someone)

Last Christmas I gave you my heart
You gave it away

(I'll give it to someone)
(I'll give it to someone)

Written by George Michael 

I'd say love was a magical thing
I'd say love would keep us from pain 
Had I been there, had I been there
I would promise you all of my life 
But to lose you would cut like a knife
So I don't dare, no I don't dare 

'Cause I've never come close in all of these years 
You are the only one to stop my tears
And I'm so scared, I'm so scared 

(Instrumental break)

Take me back in time maybe I can forget 
Turn a different corner and we never would have met
Would you care? 
I don't understand it, for you it's a breeze 
Little by little you've brought me to my knees
Don't you care? 
No I've never come close in all of these years 
You are the only one to stop my tears
I'm so scared of this love 
And if all that there is, is this fear of being used 
I should go back to being lonely and confused

that's all I wanted
something special, something sacred-
in your eyes
for just one moment
to be bold and naked
at your side

sometimes I think that you'll never
understand me
maybe this time is forever
say it can be

that's all you wanted
something special, someone sacred-
in your life
just for one moment
to be warm and naked
at my side

sometimes I think that you'll never
understand me
but something tells me together
we'd be happy

chorus
(baby)
I will be your father figure
(oh baby)
put your tiny hand in mine
(I'd love to)
I will be you preacher teacher
(be your daddy)
anything you have in mind
(it would make me)
I will be you father figure
(very happy)
I have had enough of crime
(please let me)
I will be the one who loves you-
until the end of time

that's all I wanted
bu sometimes love can be mistaken
for a crime
that's all I wanted
just to see my baby's
blue eyed shine
this time I think that my lover
understands me
if we have faith in each other
then we can be
strong

chorus

if you are the desert
I'll be the sea
if you ever hunger
hunger for me
whatever you ask for
that's what I'll be...

so when you remember the ones who have lied
who said that they cared
but then laughed when you cried
beautiful darling
don't think of me

because all I ever wanted
it's in you eyes baby, baby
and love can't lie, no...
(greet me with the eyes of a child)
my love is always telling me so...
(heaven is a kiss and a smile)
just hold on, hold on
I won't let you go, my baby

chorus

I will be your father
I will be your preacher
I'll be your daddy
I will be the one who loves you
until the end of time

(George Michael)

I've had enough of danger
and people on the streets
I'm looking out for angels
just trying to find some peace
now I think it's time
that you let me know
so if you love me
say you love me
but if you don't
just let me go...

chorus
'cos teacher
there are things
that I don't want to learn
and the last one I had
made me cry
so I don't want to learn to
hold you, touch you
think taht you're mine
because it ain't no joy
for an uptown boy
whose teacher has told him goodbye,
boodbye, goodbye

when you were just a stranger
and I was at your feet
I didn't feel the danger
now I feel the heat
that look in your eyes
telling me no
so you think that you love me
know that you need me
I wrote the song, I know it's wrong
just let me go...

chorus

so when you say that you need me
that you'll never leave me
I know you're wrong, you're that strong
let me go

and teacher
there are things
that I still have to learn
but the one thing I have is my pride
oh so I don't want to
hold you, touch you
think that you're mine
because there ain't no joy
for an uptown boy
who just isn't willing to try
I'm so cold
Inside
maybe just one more try

(George Michael)

these are the days of the open hand
they will not be the last
look around now
these are the days of the beggars
and the choosers

this is the year of the hungry man
whose place is in the past
hand in hand with ignorance
and legitimate excuses

the rich declare themselves poor
and most of us are not sure
if we have too much
but we'll take our chances
because God stopped keeping score
I guess somewhere along the way
He must have let us all out to play
turned his back and all God's children
crept out the back door

chorus
and it's hard to love,
there's so much to hate
hanging on to hope
when there is no hope to speak of
and the wounded skies above
say it's much too late
well maybe we should all be
praying for time

these are the days of the empty hand
oh you hold on to what you can
and charity is a coat you wear
twice a year

this is the year of the guilty man
your television takes a stand
and you find that what was over there
is over here

so you scream from behind your door
say what's mine is mine and not yours
I may have too much
but I'll take my chances
because God stopped keeping score
and you cling to the things
they sold you
did you cover your eyes when
they told you
that he can't come back
because he has no children
to come back for

chorus

(George Michael)

let me tell you a secret
put it in your heart and keep it
something that I want you to know
do something for me
listen to my simple story
and maybe we'll have something to show

you tell me you're cold on the inside
how can the outside world
be a place that your heart can embrace
be good to yourself
because nobody else
has the power to make you happy

chorus
how can I help you
please let me try to
I can heal the pain
that you're feeling inside
whenever you want me
you know that I will be
waiting for the day
that you'll say you'll be mine

he must have really hurt you
to make you say the things that you do
he must have really hurt you
to make those pretty eyes look so blue

he must have known
that he could
that you'd never leave him
now you can't see my love is good
and that I'm not him

chorus

who needs a lover
that can't be a friend
something tells me I'm the one
you've been looking for
if you should ever see him again
won't you tell him you've found
someone who gives you more

someone who will protect you
love and respect you
all those things
that he could never bring to you
like I do
or rather I would
won't you show me your heart
like you should

won't you let me in
let this love begin
won't you show me your heart now
I'll be good to you
I can make this thing true
and get to your heart somehow

(George Michael)

Duet with Elton John

I can't light no more of your darkness
all my pictures seam to fade to black and white
I'm growing tired and time stands still before me
frozen here on the ladder of my life

it's much to late to save myself from falling
I took a chance and changed the way of life
but you misread my meaning when I met you
closed the door and left me blinded by the light

chorus
Don't let the sun go down on me
although I search myself, it's always someone else I see
I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free
but losing everything is like the sun going down on me

I can't find oh, the right romantic line
but see me once and see the way I feel
don't discard me just because you think I mean you harm
but these cuts I have, oh they need love to help them heal

chorus

chorus

kindness in your eyes
I guess you heard me cry
you smiled at me like
Jesus to a child
I'm blessed I know
heaven sent and heaven stole
you smiled at me like
jesus to a child
and what have I learned
from all this pain
I thought I'd never feel the same
about anyone or anything again
but now I know

chorus
when you find a love
when you know that it exists
then the lover that you miss
will come to you on those cold,
cold nights
when you've been loved
when you know it holds such bliss
then the lover that you kissed
will comfort you when there's
no hope in sight

sadness in my eyes
no one guessed, well no one tryed
you smiled at me like
Jesus to a child
loveless and cold
with your last breath you saved my soul
you smiled at me like
Jesus to a child
and what have I learned
from all those tears
I've waited for you all those years
and just when it began
He took your love away
but I still say

chorus
so the words you could no say
I'll sing them for you
and the love we would have made
I'll make it for two
for every single memory
has become a part of me

you will always be...my love

well I've been loved
so I know just what love is
and the lover that I kissed
is always by my side
oh the lover I still miss...
was Jesus to a child
(George Michael)

I should have known
it seemed too easy
you were there
and I was brathing blue

strange
don't you think I'm looking older?
but something good has happened to me
change is a stranger
you have yet to know

well you're out of time
I'm letting go
you'll be fine
well that much I know
you're out of time
I'm letting go
I'm not the man you want

I should have known
it seemed too easy
you were there
I thought I needed you

strange
don't you think I'm looking older?
but something good has happened to me
change is a stranger
who never seems to show

well you're out of time
I'm letting go
you'll be fine
(or maybe you won't)
you're out of time
I'm letting go
I'm not the man that you want

I never should have looked back in your direction
I know that
just the same old fights again, baby
these are wasted days without affection
I'm not that foolish anymore

(George Michael)

Written by George Michael

My daddy got here on the gravy train
I guess my mama had a real bad start to the game
They went walking and she took his name
Round here

There was dancing in the afternoons those days
Waiting tables, chasing girls with the money he made
It was 1957, and love felt the same, love felt the same

Frightened little girl, she makes a break
Into the arms of… something better
Round here

I hear my mama call in Kingsbury Park
Just me and David and a football that glowed in the dark
Waiting patiently to make my mark
Round here

And I remember my first day at school
And I remember trouble, and thinking I was so cool
I remember it all, like yesterday

Don't you

Every time I try to leave this place
Something inside says, “You can do better”
Round here

So come with me, let me show you where I've lived
I want to put my hands in this earth again
Music fell like rain to the streets
The Specials and The Jam, to The Beat
Even though I think I've seen everything there is to see of this world
I gotta be thankful that this crowded space
Is the place of my birth

When all that I wanted, was to be someone.

Two little Hitlers in an old church hall
Some cheesy covers and those neighbours that banged on the walls
Andy says it's time to show them all
Round here

Please sir, we two have other plans
Please sir you would not understand,
What's going on
Is magical, can't you see
That some of us do more than dream

Every time I try to leave this place
Something inside says, “Keep on keeping, on and on….”
Around here

So come with me, let me show you where I've lived
I want to put my hands in this earth again
Music fell like rain to the streets
The Specials and The Jam, ABC
Even though I think I've seen everything there is to see of this world
I gotta be thankful that this crowded space
Is the place of my birth

My birth,
In this town,
Yes I guess I got to be someone

To be somebody
In the Beautiful city

This place I call home
These streets of London
It's everything I know (everything and everybody)
On the streets of London
I want to thank you

she takes the back road and the lane
past the school that has not changed
in all this time
she thinks of when the boy was young
all the battles she had won
just to give him life

that man
she loved that man
for all his life
but now we meet to take him flowers
and only God knows why

for what's the use in pressing palms
when children fade in mother's arms
it's a cruel world
we've so much to lose
and what we have to learn
we rarely choose

so if it's God who took her son
he cannot be the one living in her mind

take care my love, she said
don't think that God is dead
take care my love, she said
you have been loved

if I was weak, forgive me
but I was terrified
you brushed my eyes with angels wings
full of love
the kind that makes devils cry

so these days
my life has changed
and I'll be fine
but she just sits and counts the hours
searching for her crime

so what's the use of pressing palms
if you won't keep such love from harm
it's a cruel world
you've so much to prove

and heaven help the ones
who wait for you

well I've no daughters I've no sons
guess I'm the only one
living in my life

take care my love, he said
don't think that God is dead
take care my love, he said
you have been loved

Written by George Michael

Close friend of mine as a child fell into a slumber
No sign of life since '75
Then one day he just, what do you know
I guess God just called his number

He called me up he called me up and said
“I've been awake about a week
I'm thinking about asking the doctor
If he could put me back to sleep”
Then he laughed and said
“Hey all the girls they look the same”
Don't they know just what their mothers
Paid in blood, and tears to change

But the words that made me cry
The thing he softly said
It stayed with me, it keeps messing with my head
He said, “If Jesus Christ is alive and well
Then how come John & Elvis are dead?”

Youth, beautiful youth
We walked through the walls until we found the truth
And said “Change it, it's ugly just change it”
Everyone we used to know
Must have given up, so long ago
You can see it, it's written on their faces
And the inside of their clothes

But the words that made me cry
'Cos I knew just what they meant
He turned to me and said
“Hey boy, if Jesus Christ is alive and well
Then how come John & Elvis are dead?”

“Tell me if Jesus Christ is alive and well
Then how come Marvin & Elvis are dead?”

I said “If Jesus Christ is going to save us from ourselves

with Mutya Buena

George:
Don't kiss me, darling
I want you to hear the things I say
I loved you in my way
But you know I'm gonna leave you
Mutya:
The clock was always ticking
And your heart,
Yes I know your heart is always on the run

George:
I hate what I've become
But I'm still gonna leave you
And I don't think you should stay for the night

Mutya:
Baby you know that my flesh is weak
You know I simply

Both:
I cannot sleep without you
My heart has simply nowhere to go

Mutya:
Nothing to hold
Those tears you're crying

George:
Time and time again you take me back in baby

Mutya:
You don't have to make it plain

Both:
This is not real love

Mutya:
Look at us dancing baby
Let's dance and show them all
(Dance and show them all)
How close we are
The lies have worked so far
So we go on deceiving

George:
But darling don't you know the time
Baby, look at yourself, holding back the tide
Like you've got something else up your sleeve
That's why I've got to leave

Both:
And I don't think you should stay here tonight
(Baby don't you know that my flesh is weak, you know)
I simply I cannot sleep without you
But someday I'll have nothing to show
(Nothing to show)
(Nothing to show)
I've nothing to hold

George:
Oh, baby, crying
All those simple things that won't come again
Oh do I have to make it plain
This is not real love

And I said this is not real love
Mutya:
Real love
Baby it don't glisten and shine the way it used to

George:
This is not real love (real love)
Baby think of all the promises I made on the day that I seduced you
Baby don't wait for me like some angel of tragedy
I have to set you free
Darling you should be long gone, oh long gone by now
You should be with someone, someone

Mutya:
Glisten and shine
You promised me

George:
You've gotta face it woman, you ain't ever gonna change me

Mutya:
Where will I go, what do I know
About life without you
You promised me you'd never leave me, no
This is not real love

Written by George Michael

In my house there's a circle, where the life comes in
From the stars to my home, down through the stone,
I could have been so alone,
Without my precious box
Have I a family? I guess not
I've never seen a lot of beauty
In my life.

Well in your house there are servants, and the lights all dim
Such a beautiful home, your agent's on the phone, they never
leave you alone
The party never stops!
You say that's fantasy, I say “So what, I need a little beauty…”

So let me in,
You know you've kind of got under my skin
You know we never see a lot of the action round here
My dear
You may want to strip again

And you look so fine in your Gucci suit
And you're making more money than your daddy
could have imagined
But people can go out of fashion, honey, yeah, any time

So take that picture, stop acting so dumb
Don't you know that the moment will come
I will find someone like you
But with something extra, I'm sorry baby
I don't know why
I don't know why that is

The systematic breakdown of my community
You know I hate my job, I try to save but God
There's just never enough
Switch on, the pressure - stops
You know the one for me, she's on Fox
And she's a little beauty…

Give me your life, give me your life, I want it
Because lately, it's so freezing out here
(This side of the glass, life keeps kicking my ass)
In so many ways, but you make it good
Made me the kind of happy that my baby never could
(This side of the glass…)

So take that picture, stop acting so dumb
Don't you know that the moment will come
I will find someone like you
But with something extra, I'm so sorry baby
I don't know why
I don't know why that is

Precious keeps me company
Keeps me from being alone

Because no-one comes in the morning
No-one comes in the evening time
I'd sit and wait for the phone to ring
I could be waiting my whole damn life

So sick of the same old faces
In this street, where nobody talks to me
And the funny side of the situation is
I don't care, I'll always be there

When you come down from the sky
And make yourself at home
In my house

Because these days it's the money the money
The money, honey, or your life
I said don't you know you can't have both

Stop acting so dumb
The moment will come
I will find someone like you
Something extra, (always happens baby to me) sorry baby
I don't know why (something)
Said I don't know why that is

You may want to strip again
You may want to let me in
You may want to sacrifice
More than you think is fair or right

You may want to think again
You may want to watch your friends
You may want to change your mind

You don't have to put on the red light
Those days are over
You don't have to sell your body to the night

Roxanne
You don't have to wear that dress tonight
Walk the streets of money
You don't care if it's wrong or if it's right

Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light
Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light

Roxanne (Put on the red light)
Roxanne (Put on the red light)
Roxanne (Put on the red light)
Roxanne (Put on the red light)
Roxanne (Put on the red light)
Roxanne

I loved you since I knew you
I wouldn't talk down to you
I have you to tell just how I feel
I won't share you with another boy

I know my mind is made up
So put away your make up
Told you once I won't tell you again
It's a bad way

Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light
Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light

Roxanne (Put on the red light)
Roxanne (Put on the red light)
Roxanne (Put on the red light)

One day you say you love me
The next you tell me you don't
One day you say you will
And the next you tell me you won't
Hey little baby
There ain't much point in hanging around (Yea).
One day you make me feel like your love is in my hands
One day you say you'll stay
The next you're changing your plans
Hey little baby
Ain't much point in hanging around (Yea).
Cause' if you ain't got time for me I'll find another Fantasy.

It is kind of funny that you think that
I am the boy to make you cry
I can make you happy
If only for a while
Little baby I can give you all the loving that your heart desires
If you ain't got time for me I'll find another Fantasy.

It could be the price of love
Could the price of hate
What am I guilty of
Why do you make me wait
So long I don't know your intentions.
Look to the sky's above
I am in the hands of fate
Push till it gets to shove
I have got to know for heavens sake
Is this love or invention
Baby can't you see I'll find another Fantasy.

You hang around with people who are sure to make you cry
I can make you happy if only for a while
Little baby oh, oh little baby
I can give you all the lovin' that your heart desires
If you ain't got time for me I'll find another Fantasy.

You take someone's heart
And you kick it around
Keep on picking it up
So you can watch it come down
I don't know what I am suppose to do
Why I wait for you to make up your mind
Would you please be so kind
When you know what to do I'll be in the next room
But if you make it to late I may be in the next day

Mama's gone and got herself a new man
It's a shame,
He's the same
Mama please please, stop pretending
This time, it won't end in tears
I find myself, with a new daddy
My mama needs love you see
Guess she don't wanna be lonely

And nobody's keeping score
I don't say hi to those guys no more
Said mama can't you feel me
Holding my breath as they knock, knock, knock on our door

You're just taking your ass to the top of that building
Throwing yourself under cars and trains
Taking the pill that you know will kill you
Under the wheels,
The same, the same….

Johnny's gone and got himself a new man
He gets laid, every day
Johnny please please, stop pretending
This time, may just end in tears
Take care of yourself
Because you won't find 'daddy'
When you're popping those pills
Oh Johnny, is the danger just part of the thrill?

And nobody's keeping score
Johnny those guys that you shake it for
I said “Johnny can't you hear them
Saying mama knows best as they knock, knock,
knock on your door”

You're just taking your ass to the top of that building
Throwing yourself under cars and trains
Taking the pill that you know will kill you
Under the wheels, the same, the same

Taking your ass to the top of that building
Throwing yourself under cars and trains
Taking the pill that you know will kill you
Under the wheels, wheels, wheels

Pretty girl, little girl, what were you thinking
Just 18 at the time
You were a mother and child, at the same time
You were a mother and child
So young and fucked up baby
Always higher than a child should see…
Forgive me

To the top of that building
Under cars and trains
Taking the pill that you know will kill you
Under the wheels, wheels, wheels

Mama don't you let him stay

From bastard to loser, hurt you, used you in every way,
Mama, don't you let him stay, please
Don't let him stay

I said Jesus, Mary, and the Saints above,

Written by George Michael

It's like a conversation, where no-one stops to breathe
Is it my imagination, or did God already leave the table?
Such destruction, and pure white castles in the sand
No time for introduction
With all that money changing hands

And the satellite says, “Take a look at all we have”
But the old man says,
“You want my family, for your liberty…I can't do that.”

Look into the eyes of any patient man
Whether they be amber, green or blue,
There's a piece of God staring back at you
But they see our children, and the old folk fend for themselves
They see our broken women
On imaginary shelves

But the satellite says, “Won't you people look at all we have?
Don't you want it?

Can't you see the things that you lack?”

lover don't love too much
it's a bad thing, a sad thing
it is heaven to the touch
hey everybody's got a moment in their lives
they can't change
(don't they baby)

I know you don't care
what's right or wrong
all that I know
is that love don't belong heer
so it's better to turn the page
watch me walk away my dear
watch me walk away
you say

chorus
I can't stop but you know that I want to
I can't stop don't you know that I want you
I want you baby
more than ever
I can't stop but you know that I want to
I can't stop don't you know that I want you

but it's never gonna be that easy
I don't wanna waste your time

lover don't love too much
I'm a bad boy, a sad boy
and I'll never give you much
hey everybody's got some moment in their lives
they can't change
yeah

so I do not dare
take you home
all that I know
is that something's so wrong with this heat
why do you touch the flame
you know you feal the pain my dear
you always find it here
you say

chorus

but it's never gonna

so what happens everytime
it's so easy to forget myself where
a little while you want a boy
in a place you will be all mine
can't you see

oh, I'm losing you baby

chorus

but it's never gonna be that easy
you want a lover, I am just a friend

Written by George Michael

My mother had a brother
They say that I was born on the day that he died
Someone to cling to, she said
When all the noises and the shame came calling

My mother had a brother
I thought I knew them all, I thought I knew
But she lied
I said, “Show me his face again, tell me again why he died”

She said he couldn't wait for the things that I've seen
She said he wasn't strong enough, he never dared to dream a life like mine

My mother had a brother
Over-sensitive and kind
Seems it all became too much for him..
It seems he took his own life
Mum, I can't imagine the joy and pain in equal measure
Tears in the dirt, and all over your newborn treasure

I guess he had to wait until my momma had me
I guess he couldn't wait another moment to be free
In endless sky…..

But mama will you tell him from your boy
The times they changed
I guess the world was getting warmer
And we got stronger
Mother will you tell him about my joy
I live each day for him
The sun came out, yeah, and I'm just breathing it in

(breathing…)

My mother had a brother
Same desire, different time
Seems the empty spaces tortured him
Until he took his own life

I don't know why I waited so long for love
I just don't know what I was thinking of..
All that wasted time

But mama will you tell him from your boy
The times they changed
I guess the world was getting warmer
While we got stronger
Mother will you tell him about my joy
I live each day with him
Your son came out, yeah,
And I'm still breathing it in

And I swear now that freedom is here
I'm gonna taste it all for you boy
I'm bad to the bone, I'm just a little torn
I'm making so much love

So those of us who have nothing to fear
We've got to make damn sure that it was worth it
I'm bad to the bone, I'm just a little stoned
I'm making so much love

I was a prisoner, but he saved me
Broke into my dreams and said, “Who cares?”
I was a prisoner, so disgrace me
I'm glad to be home

Written by The Isley Brothers

You're the one that makes my day
A dream come true
Yet and still you wonder
If I think of you
You ought to see how the other girls behave
When you're not around
And only then you would know
That it's on your finger I'm wound

Uh-huh

Chorus:
If you were there you'd know
If you were there you'd know
If you were there you'd know
That I care

There's no need for you not to have faith in me
'Cos it's by your side girl
That I long to be
Yes there are times with my friends
When I don't have much to say
But what you don't know is with you
I could never act that way

(Repeat chorus)

I care for you baby

I swear that I care

There's no need for you not to have faith in me
'Cos it's by you're side girl
That I long to be
Yes there are times with my friends
When I don't have much to say (Uh-huh)
But what you don't know is with you
I could never act that way

(Repeat chorus)

I care for you baby

I swear that I care for you baby
I do
Have faith in me

I care for you baby

Oh-oh

sweet thing
I know how strong that I appear
but you don't know the days
since someone loved me
I stopped bleading
you came
and led me through that door again
you say you wanna stay
but you don't know me (no you don't know)

you make me feel safe

someday
my darkest fears will find their way
after all
somebody loves me (loves me, loves me)
all day

my heart tells strangers how I feel
and it's hard not to feel this way
when you thought your future was on prescription
(baby)

you make me feel safe
you make me feel safe

Written by George Michael

Bless the day you came into my life, I still remember
Horny cowboy with your stars and stripes
Bringing the light into my day
With that Texan smile

Too afraid to love, to hope that you would stay
So broken that I never saw you chase the past away

My American Angel, he doesn't want to fight (doesn't need to fight)
My U.S of Angel, holds me in the dead of night
Takes away that fear that I carried forever
You stopped to wipe away my tears
And you stayed forever and more

( I don't think that I…)

Yesterday it seemed my life was colder than December
All alone I watched the eagles fly
Even the light seemed to have changed
In the Californian sky

Through all of those battles then you came
Stepped out of the fading light
Said, “Baby I'm American, dry your eyes again,
Because I'm here to save your life”

My American Angel, he doesn't want to fight (doesn't need to fight)
My U.S of Angel, holds me in the dead of night
Takes away that fear that I carried forever
You stopped to wipe away my tears
But you stayed forever amore

And more, didn't you baby..

Because I don't think that I could love and lose again
I don't think I have the strength
I don't think I have the strength

my baby don't care for shows
my baby don't care for clothes
my baby just cares for me

my baby don't care for cars and races
my baby don't care for high tone places

Elizabeth Taylor is not his style
and even Ricky Martin's smile
is something he can't see
my baby don't care who knows it
my baby just cares for me

I wonder what's wrong with baby
my baby just cares for
he just says his prayers for
my baby just cares
for me

Once I built a railroad, made it run
Made it race against time
Once I built a rairoad, now it’s done
Brother can you spare a dime?
Once I built a tower to the sun
Brick and rivet and lime
Once I built a tower, now it’s done
Brother can you spare a dime?

Once in khaki suits
Gee, we looked swell
Full of that yankee doodle de dum
Half a million boots went slogging through hell
I was the kid with the drum
Say don’t you remember, they called me al
It was al all the time
Say don’t you remember, I’m your pal!
Brother can you spare a dime?

Some people said, if I could only care for you
Some people said, he will never love again
Some people said, you can see it in his eyes
He keeps it all inside and yet . . . .
Some people say, in time, we all teach ourselves to live this way

And for a thousand days, I was lost
I thought never to be found,
Underground
And don't you think I'm ready now?
So please send me someone to love . . .

Please send me someone, someone to love
As much as I loved you
(The way I loved you, darlin')
Please, please send me someone, someone to love
Please send me someone

Any time, any day, any time, any day now
Any time any day, any time, any day now
Please, please send me someone
Just to hold me now that you're gone

Some people say, “I hope you know I'm there for you”
Some of the people said - nothing,
And nothing was just fine
(You know how I get sometimes . . .)

And for a thousand days, I was lost
I said, “Heaven knows I'm ready to be found”,
Underground
But I think I'm ready now
So please send me someone to love

Please send me someone, someone to love
As much as I loved you
Please, please send me someone, someone to love
Please send me someone
Please send me someone

Any time any day any time any day now
Any time any day any time any day now
Please, please send me someone

So say that you will, because the nights are long
Without our song to sing
Just search the clouds until . . . until
So say that you will
Show me right from wrong,
Without our song to sing
Just search the clouds until . . . until
And Darlin' darlin' though I can't replace you, there's a
space in my heart
A space that you left in my heart
Just give me something that will pull me back from the blue

Oh send me someone like you

Darlin' darlin' no I can't replace you, there's a space in my heart
A space that you left in my heart
Just give me something that will pull me back from the blue

Written by George Michael

Is that enough?
I think it's over
See, everything has changed
And all this hatred may just make me strong enough
To walk away

They may chase me to the ends of the earth
But I've got you babe
And they may strip me of the things that I've worked for
But I've had my say

So hear me now
I've enough of these chains
I know they're of my making
No one else to blame for where I stand today
I've no memory of truth
But suddenly the audience is so cruel
So God, hey God you know why I'm through

Through

I guess it's tough, I guess I'm older
And everything must change
But all this cruelty and money instead of love
People, have we no shame?

They may chase me to the ends of the earth
But I've got you babe
And they may take away the things that I've worked for
But you'll pull me through

It's so clear to me now
I've enough of these chains
Life is there for the taking
What kind of fool would remain in this cheap gilded cage
I've no memory of truth
But suddenly the audience is so cruel
Oh God, I'm sorry

I think I'm through
I think I'm through
