Sandy was from out of town
And I met her at the beach
She drove a white Mondeo ride
Which I thought was kinda cheap

She danced a while and drank some wine
Before she rolled her eyes at me
I picked them up and I rolled them back
And then we swam into the sea

She's Alright x5
She's Okay, She's with me
She's Alright x5
She's Okay, She's with me

We talked all night into the morning light
Until it was time to find some food
We drank coffee until it made me shake
And I rolled into a beer

She got drunk and loud and laughed
And then it all turned into tears
And then she got into a bar-room brawl
So I said "It's okay, she's with me"

She's Alright x5
She's Okay, She's with me
She's Alright x5
She's Okay, She's with me
She's Alright x5
She's Okay, She's with me
She's Alright x5
She's Okay, She's with me

Oooooh x4

They said "Get out",
I said "She's alright"
They said "Get out",
I said "She's alright"
They said "Get out",
I said "She's alright"
They said "Get out",
I said "She's alright"

She's Alright x5
(They said "Get out", I said "She's alright")
She's Okay, She's with me
She's Alright x5
(They said "Get out", I said "She's alright")
She's Okay, She's with me
She's Alright x5
(They said "Get out", I said "She's alright")
She's Okay, She's with me
She's Alright x5
(They said "Get out", I said "She's alright")
She's Okay, She's with me

I remember.. walking around the streets at night
I remember people talking about their lives
One of us never made it home that night
Drunken high got the better of her mind
Jenny Died
The setting sun with music on
The risk and day was...
You canґt see when thereґs sun in your eyes
You're innocent
You think everything is possible
And nothings gonna get you baby
Everything is touchable
Nothing's gonna beat you in this life
It's alright
Holding hands
Drinking cans
in the orange light
Summer breeze
Feeling free
Kissing the first time
One of us never made it home that night
Easy love someone said
"Give this stuff a try"
Jenny tried
The railway bridge, the river flowed
With shallow water down below
You canґt see with the sun in your eyes
You're innocent
You think everything is possible
And nothings gonna get you baby
Everything is touchable
Nothings gonna beat you in this life
Its alright
The setting sun with music on
The risk and day was.....
You canґt see with the sun in your eyes
You're innocent
You think everything is possible
And nothing's gonna get you baby
Everything is touchable
Nothings gonna beat you in this life
And nothings gonna get you baby
Everything is touchable
Nothing's gonna beat you in this life
It's alright

i watched the water rise in our house
the rain poured in and washed out our stuff
my father drank from beer bottles
then he'd say
we'll walk on, walk on, what's done, is done
walk on, my son, never let this world drag you down

all that we had was deep in the mud
our photographs and family treasures
my mother drank from beer bottles
then she'd say
we'll walk on, walk on, what's done, is done
walk on, my son, never let this world drag you down

don't let it bring you down (and let your head drop down)
don't let the sun go down (and let your light go out)
don't let yourself fall down
just pick yourself up from the street and get up on your feet

walk on, walk on, what's done, is done
walk on, my son, never let this world drag you down
never let this world drag you down

Oh can you feel it?
There's no money in this town
Oh can you see it?
There's people dyin' all around

I'm in trouble
You're in trouble
Deep deep trouble
Someone burst our bubble
I'm in trouble
Won't ya save our souls tonight

Oh work to borrow
'Cause we can't buy with what we got
Oh no-one to follow
No one's saying such a lot

I'm in trouble
You're in trouble
Deep deep trouble
Someone burst our bubble
I'm in trouble
Won't ya save our souls tonight

Oh nowhere to run to
There's fighting everywhere we go
Oh getting brainwashed
What do you believe in any more?

Oh can you feel it?
There's no money in this town

I'm in trouble
You're in trouble
Deep deep trouble
Someone burst our bubble
I'm in trouble
Won't ya save our souls tonight

Every little thing you do is magic lately
Every single thing that you do is cool
Every little thing you do is tragically hip
Even when you tend to play the fool

When you open up your tired eyes
And take a look at what’s inside
The mirror on your wall tells you the truth
You’re exactly where you wana be
There is no room for streams of tears
The sun is shining down, the clouds have cleared

Could you be the one for me
Could you be the one for me
Could you be the one for me
Could you be the one

Could you be the one for me
Could you be the one for me
Could you be the one for me
Could you be the one

Every single thing you do is magic baby
Every little thing that you do is cool
Every little thing you do is fashionably hip
Even when you’re mixing greens with blues

When you open up your pain stained eyes
From the night before when you were high
The smile upon your face tells you the truth
You’re exactly where you wana be
There aint no fear of misery
The sun is shining down, the clouds have cleared

Could you be the one for me
Could you be the one for me
Could you be the one for me
Could you be the one

Could you be the one for me
Could you be the one for me
Could you be the one for me
Could you be the one, oohhh....

(Could you be the one for me)
(Could you be the one for me)
(Could you be the one for me)
(Could you be the one)

Could you be the one for me
Could you be the one for me
Could you be the one for me
Could you be the one

You think you're pretty special
Mix in your social circle
I watch you dance the night away
You seem to hypnotise me
We drank until the sun beamed
And when I woke you'd gone away

But I know, and you know
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
You told me lies right to my face
I've got your number you're a fake
One too many times I took the bait
You told me lies right to my face
I've got your number you're a fake

You act like you're so happy
You play the role so badly
Put down your pills and walk away
You line up on your mirror
Inventing all your grandeur
Why don't you stare into your face?

But I know, and you know
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8
You told me lies right to my face
I've got your number you're a fake

One too many times I took the bait
You told me lies right to my face
I've got your number you're a fake
Fake, and I know, yes I know

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8
I've got your number you're a fake
One too many times I took the bait
You told me lies right to my face
I've got your number you're a fake

Time bomb where did it go wrong
Street fights in the city lights for you, who are you?
The uppercut from the upper class
I spilled my drink and I broke my glass for you, who are you?

You look fit but you ain't got it
Think you're a dog well you're just a bitch
I bet you'd like to take me for a ride

Sing loud all you people
We're fighting in the streets
Sing loud all you people
This city's killing me

With no money and the cupboard's bare
knew who I was and I didn't care for you, who are you?
The undercurrent of the underdog
Will wipe the floor with your suit and job you do, who are you?

You box clever like to box you hard
So what do you got without your credit card
Not a lot 'cause what you think you've got's not real

Sing loud all you people
We're fighting it in the streets
Sing loud all you people
This city's killing me

Time bomb where did it go wrong
Street fights and the city lights
For you, who are you?
The uppercut from the upper class
I spilled my drink and I broke my glass for you, who are you?

Sing loud all you people
We're fighting in the streets
Sing loud all you people
This city's killing me

Change what can
But the rest you just gotta let go
Taste every drop of life you can
You know
'Cause time is short
It soon be time to go

Don't be afraid to dream
But live life here and now
'Cause that's what's real
All the rest of it
Is just all make believe
So live here in the moment
And live the...

... dream my angel
Be my saviour
Take my soul and live 'n' love today

You'll never understand it all
And things go right and wrong
Take that from me

In love 'n' life there ain't much
Sympathy
So grab your coat it's cold
And live the...

... dream my angel
Be my saviour
Take my soul and live 'n' love today

You'll never understand it all
Read the writing on the wall
See the world and be what
You wanna be
Don't be afraid to dream
Live a life and live it free
The rests all make believe to me

So live the dream my angel
Be my saviour
Take my soul
And live 'n' love today

. . .


Is it heaven or hell at dawn
you really go it up or your going down
do you say your prayers late at night
or do you save them for the desperate times

do you see the beauty of a rose, i doubt it
do you hear the children sing aloud, no
can you see the leaves change the colors out there
can you taste the water in your mouth

is it any wonder
is there any hope
100mph
yet the race just still runs slow
the race just still feels slow

do you believe in good will forever guide
does your devil take you to your other side
can karma kill you in your mind
do you plan to solve this one tonight
do you see the beauty in a rose, i doubt it
can you hear the children sing aloud

is it any wonder
is there any hope
100mph
yet the race just still runs slow
the race just still feels slow

were running out of time, my friends
your running out of time, oh yeah, oh yeah

is there any wonder
is there any hope
100mph
yet the race just still runs slow
the race just still feels slow
the race just still runs slow
the race just still feels slow

I wanted it all, wanted what I could not
Control, I just could not control it all
I levelled it off
To a place where I can feel alive
And not weighed down at all
I'm learning alot
Learning that I've just gotta let go,
I cannot carry it all, it's not who I was
Taking me back to the place
Where I loved when I was just a boy
Don't you wanna,
Just remember who you are?

I wanna be, back in our summer,
Do you remember?
Come with me
No room for thunder
Not going under
I wanna be, free, breathe, dream about
Our summer, I'll always wonder

Yeah we wandered around,
Swimming at night under the stars
And no-one there to bring us down,
We'll never be down
Now I know that when I think back,
All this stuff's a state of mind
Don't you wanna,
Just remember, who you are?

I wanna be, back in our summer,
Do you remember?
Come with me
No room for thunder
Not going under

I wanna be, as good as it was,
It wasn't enough, I wanted it all,
I wanted too much, I'll never forget,
About our summer,
I'll always wonder,
About our summer...

. . .


You make do with your lot, You gotta choice to make
You gotta follow your gut, you're head's in a state
You're stuck in a rut, you're wasting you're days
Time don't wait so...
Make your choice, either go or stay
What you got in your heart is dying every day
You're scared to let go, though your mind is made
Just pack your soul and don't stay

You're feeling down and low
You're dreaming, of how it should feel
Staying will set your soul on fire

You're stuck in,
A rut and,
Your life is,
Forgotten

So it's only a house, don't make it a home
Are you a man or a mouse, you gotta walk it alone
It's time to let go, get on with the show
The clock is ticking

What you've got is long gone, draw a line in the sand
You're poker face is shot, i can see through your hand
Stop lying to yourself, gotta make new plans
Time don't wait for no man

You're feeling down and low
You're dreaming, of how it should feel
Staying will set your soul on fire

You're stuck in,
A rut and,
Your life is,
Forgotten

. . .


Blacken mood, I'm sick of you,
It's time that you get out my life,
You bring me down,
Lack of sleep is killing me, I think it's time I close my eyes for a while.

I almost touched it, but then it slipped right through my hands.
Could almost see it, but then it slipped dropped out my mind.

I want you to show me, I know you know how,
To live every moment,
Like they all count.
Teach me to love you,
Show me the light,
'Cause I'm in the darkness,
It's time I got out.

Cracked and wounded, down and out,
Its time the bleeding got cleaned up
Stitch me up.

I almost touched it, but then it slipped right through my hands.
Could almost see it, but then it slipped dropped out my mind.

I want you to show me, I know you know how,
To live every moment,
Like they all count.
Teach me to love you,
Show me the light,
'Cause I'm in the darkness,
It's time I got out.

I want you to show me, just show me, then shine me the light
Won't you show me, just show me, shine me the light.
Won't you show me, just show me, shine me the light.
Show me how, show me how, show me how, show me how, show me how, show me how, show me how, Shine the light on me, on me.

Won't you show me how to live every moment, shine me the light of your soul, and teach me how to love like you do, like it's the last day of the world.
