Verse 1

Eyes, like a sunrise
Like a rainfall
Down my soul
And I wonder,
I wonder why you look at me like that
What you're thinking,
What's behind
Don't tell me, but it feels like love

Chorus

I'm gonna take this moment
and make it last forever
I'm gonna give my heart away
and pray we'll stay together
'Cause you're the one good reason
You're the only girl that I need
'Cause you're more beautiful than I have ever seen
I'm gonna take this night
and make it Evergreen

Verse 2

Touch, like an angel
Like velvet to my skin
And I wonder,
Wonder why you wanna stay the night
What you're dreaming
What's behind
Don't tell me, but it feels like love

Chorus

(Don't tell me, but it feels like love)
Chorus to end

You know that it would be untrue
You know that I would be a liar
If I was to say to you girl
We couldn't get much higher

Come on baby, light my fire
Come on baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire

Oh, the time to hesitate is through
There's no time to wallow in the mire
If I was to say to you
That our love becomes a funeral pyre

Come on baby, light my fire
Come on baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh oh
Mmmm, yeah
Oh oh

Light my fire
Light my fire yeah yeah
Mmmm, yeah

The time to hesitate is through
There's no time to wallow in the mire
Try now we can only lose
And our love becomes a funeral pyre

Come on baby, light my fire
Come on baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire
Yeah

Come on baby light my fire
Come on baby light, light my fire
Light my fire, light my fire, light my fire
Whoa, yeah
Light, light, light, light, light, girl

All you've got to do is light my fire
You gotta light it girl
You gotta light it yeah
Light my fire, light my fire, light my fire,
Whoa, yeah
Light, light, light, light, light, girl, girl

(Peden/Johnson/Johnson)

Cut to the chase, your pretty face 
Search outer space, leaving no trace 
Making love in the heavens above 
Flying so high, you and I 
You and I, You and I 

Chorus 
Can't get my head around you 
Can't bare to be without you 
Can't stop from thinking 'bout you 
You turn my life around 
Can't get my head around you 
Can't bare to be without you 
Can't stop from thinking 'bout you 
You turn my life around 

Time standing still, inch time to kill 
Cheating the wheel, there are moments to steal 
So another day gets brushed away 
Pre-occupied, you and I 
You and I, you and I. 

Repeat Chorus 

Yeah, yeah. Oh-oh yeah 

Making love in the heavens above 
Flying so high, you and I 

Repeat Chorus to fade

Verse 1
I'm here just like I said
Though its breaking every rule I've ever made
My racing heart is just the same
Why make it strong to break it once again?
And I'd love to say I do
Give everything to you
But I can never now be true
So I say...

Chorus
I think I'd better leave right now
Before I fall any deeper
I think I'd better leave right now
Feeling weaker and weaker
Somebody better show me how
Before I fall any deeper
I think I'd better leave right now

Verse 2
I'm here so please explain
Why you're opening up a healing wound again
I'm a little more careful
Perhaps it shows
But if I lose the highs, at least I'm spared the lows
Bridge
Now I tremble in your arms
What could be the harm
To feel my spirit calm
So I say..

Repeat Chorus

Middle 8
I wouldn't know how to say
How good it feels seeing you today
I see you've got your smile back
Like you say your right on track
But you may never know why
Once bitten twice is shy
If I'm proud perhaps I should explain
I couldn't bear to lose you again

Repeat Chorus

Yes I will...

Repeat Chorus

(W Young/B MacKichan/T Onile-Ere)

I see you floating it constantly
You're making me feel like you and I could be real
But then you're flipping the game
You walk away and turn your back baby
Stop treading on me baby
Cos I'm mystified
And you know I've tried
I just can't get through to you

Chorus
What you gonna do
I don't know
What you gonna say
I ain't sure
Always the same
All the time
Every day
Played my mind
I can't keep wasting my time on your game

Ain't no doubt about it x4

I've taken all that I can
I've given to you my all
But you don't seem to respond baby
Oh I can't stand all this waiting
Cos I can't stand all this waiting
Cos my patience is fading
Pretty soon I'll be gone

Let's rectify it
You can't deny it
The way that you feel for me
Tell me

Repeat Chorus

I can't keep wasting my time on your game

No more, no more
No more wasted time
Playing your game
I've seen this all before
Time and time, no way

Cos I'm mystified
You know that I've tried
I just can't get through to you

Repeat Chorus x2

I can't keep wasting my time on your game

No more, no more
No more wasted time
Playing your game
I've seen this all before
Time

(S Lee/ D Taylor)

We've been told to live our lives
Just working on a feeling
Waiting for the sun on what
We do believe in
I'm every man
I hear the cry of someone else
A drowning man reaching out
But no-one hears
I know a man living out his life
Without a reason
And he says...

Chorus
Monday's got a beautiful baby
And Wednesday's child can never win
Little Saturday will work till he's crazy
But Friday's child was born to give

Now what about all the unborn people that will suffer
At the hands of Mr. Right
Who cares about no other
I see a mother who lets her children use her up
I know a father who sacrifices his wayward son
I wonder
What you give that someone else is needing nothing
Next to nothing

(W Young/S Lipson/R Peterson/K Poole/S Wolf)

I can see I'm a little unstable
Mystified, I'm tired and unable
To switch it on and switch it off daily
It's OK to say how you see me

It's about my time
There's no way
Please, this isn't working
I can't breathe
Got no air now

How can I live when I want to be free?
This is my time and these are my needs
It's OK to want before you fall down
You're sending me off on a mission I'm bound

Got to, got to, got to go crazy

Can you tell I'm a little bit hungry?
Mr Fabulous don't impress me
He talks to me with a speech without words
With the vowels all missing and the truth unheard

Please, this isn't working
I can't breathe
Got no air now

It's all about the money
It's all about the fame
It's not about the way you live your life
This is how I'm gonna break it down now

How can I live when I want to be free?
This is my time and these are my needs
It's OK to want before you fall down
You're sending me up on a mission, I'm bound

Give it to me
Ha!

Can't you see I'm a little bit weary
In a three piece suit and shoes that don't fit me
You're bright-eyed-bushy-tailed pushing it round
No I won't let it go, no I won't stop, won't stop

How can I live when I want to be free?
This is my time and these are my needs
It's OK to want before you fall down
You're sending me up on a mission, I'm bound

How can I live when I want to be free?
This is my time and these are my needs
It's OK to want before you fall down
You're sending me up on a mission, I'm bound

You're sending me up on a mission, I'm bound
You're sending me up on a mission, I'm bound
You're sending me up on a mission, I'm bound

Sometimes you walk by the good ones
'Cos you're trying to hard, too hard to see them
And sometimes you don't find the right lines
'Cos you're trying too hard, too hard to hear them
But you know what it feels like
'Cos you're like me
And you won't give up
'Till an all time love
'Cos nothing else is good enough
I want an all time love to find me

Some days you're too set in your ways
And you forget to shut up, shut up and listen
And some days you just have to misplace all your mistakes
Somewhere that you won't miss them
So stop lying that you're fine
'Cos you're like me
And you can't give up

'Till an all time love
'Cos nothing else is good enough
I want an all time love to find me

I don't believe that it's a failing
I don't believe that it's a fault
'Cos if everything were plain sailing
Oh tell me what would there be left to resolve

But an all time love
'Cos nothing else is good enough
I want an all time love to find me
I want an all time love
'Cos nothing else is good enough

Sometimes you know you push me so hard
I don't know how I feel
You almost make me doubt I feel at all

It's not as though I always listen
But there's just so much I don't hear
Maybe I'll never be what you want
I know that all you're asking for
Is a little place in my heart
But I don't find it easy to give

Maybe I get a little selfish sometimes
Why shouldn't I?
I used to say I love you
But would it make a difference this time?

Chorus
And who am I to tell you that I would never let you down
That no-one else could love you half as much as I do now
And who am I to tell you I'll always catch you when you fall
Well I, I wouldn't be myself at all
I wouldn't be myself at all, at all.

I always find a reason why I didn't put you first
It's not that complicated I know
I really hate it when you shake your head like this ain't gonna work
Maybe you'll never reap what you sow

Chorus

I didn't want to do what everybody does
And hide the truth to find we never knew a thing about love
Cos this is real life, real love
And knowing what it comes down too
It just might be enough

Gotta shake myself
Up here
I should run away
Run away, run away
People say
Don’t even go near
I can see the danger
I’m aware
I see the danger

If I go back once again
It’s like
I learned nothing
Standing at the front
Of a queue
Heading for trouble

Hope it changes
Hope my life changes
Gets alright somehow
Oh
I’m waiting for tomorrow
I hope it changes
Can’t you stay the same
Been out of luck
For so long
And I don’t get much
So there’s nothing
Much to lose

It’s like a record
Going round
Yes, it’s going round
Going round, going round
I know I should wanna
Take it off
But I find it hard
Why do I find it hard?

I used to have a vision
I was sitting
Somewhere up there
Looking down on myself
Doing right
For once in my life
It changes
Hope my life changes
Gets alright somehow
Oh
I’m waiting for tomorrow
I hope it changes
Can’t you stay the same
Been out of luck
For so long
And I don’t get much
So there’s nothing
Much to lose

I just need a break
A little one
To get me up
To watch the sun
And hey
It’s peaceful here

Hope it changes
Hope my life changes
Gets alright somehow
Oh
I’m waiting for tomorrow
Hope it changes
Can’t you stay the same
(Can’t you stay the same)
Been out of luck
For so long
(Can’t you stay the same)
Don’t get much
So there’s nothing
Much to lose
Changes
Oh
I’m waiting for tomorrow
Hope it changes
Can’t you stay the same
Been out of luck
For so long

Feeling so strange I’m seeing you clearly now
Your beauty’s deadlier everyday
All these people am I the only one
Who found you out
Is no one willing to say, willing to say, willing to say

Why don’t you slow down
Turn your head round
Been treading on hearts
That are giving in with a little
Grace - you’re getting away with it
Words - but nothing to say with it
You smile and take what you need in any way that you please
Isn’t it a shame
You’ve
Nothing to show from these
Lies - I told you you’d pay for it
Lonely are the days of your life

You spoke in rhymes and rhythms
The sweetest sounds
They drew me in like a moth to a flame
Oh, all these people you hurt along the way
Will haunt you now
‘Cos things are going to change, going to change, going to change

Why don’t you slow down
Turn your head round
Been treading on hearts
That are giving in with a little
Grace - you’re getting away with it
Words - but nothing to say with it
You smile and take what you need in any way that you please
Isn’t it a shame
You’ve
Nothing to show from these
Lies - I told you you’d pay for it
Lonely are the days of your life

You’re beginning to lose
Things are fading in front of your eyes

You’ve a long way to fall
Before you even realize
That this loneliness hurts
Lonely will be the days of your life
Oh

Grace - you’re getting away with it
Words and nothing to say with it
You blame but you’re not ashamed of it
Hurt - you don’t feel the pain of it
Lie - straight in the face of it
Your mind - you should be afraid of it
Your grace - you’re getting away with it
Nothing to get in my way
With a little grace - you’re getting away with it
Words and nothing to say with it
Lonely are the days of your life

Lonely are the days
You lie - straight in the face of it
Your mind, your mind - you should be afraid
You’re heading for trouble

I have never been afraid of being alone
It's somehow typical of being a man - I know
But I woke in the night
My body full of fright
Could I provide for you?
Everything you've ever wanted
Could I really be the man I promised I would be
And support you tenderly

Let it go
Let it go
Let it go
'Cause it's out of my control
Let it go let it go
Don't have to have it all
Grips so tight it shatters
Only thing that matters
Only got one life
Heaven knows
What I'm stressing for
Let it go let it go

It's the simple things in life that bring me down
Like always being right
It leads to fights - oh no no
I'm running low on energy
The world keeps bugging me
And I keep thinking baby
How we gonna stay together
Can I really make a vow I'm never gonna keep
See that's what's bothering me - eee - eee

Let it go
Let it go
Let it go
'Cause it's out of my control
Let it go
Let it go
Don't have to have it all
Grips so tight it shatters
Only thing that matters
Only got one life
Heaven knows
What I'm stressing for
I've let it go

I know you tell me that I always think too much
And all that stupid stuff
Well, I've thought enough

Let it go
Let it go
Let it go
'Cause it's out of my control

Don't have to have it all
Grips so tight it shatters
Only thing that matters
Only got one life
Heaven knows
What I'm stressing for
Let it go
Let it go

...
you don't take crae of me like you should
...
gotta help me out,
i'm losing my mind without a doubt!
...

hopes and fears
bring us all to tears
babe, this will tear us apart
i don't even know what you want

there ain't no way of knowing
if we are coming or going
you just do what you want...
there ain't no way of knowing
if we are coming or going
you're telling me what i want to hear
...

hopes and fears
bring us all to tears
babe, this will tear us apart
i don't even know what you want

hopes and fears
bring us all to tears
they'll bring us to our knees,
so,baby won't you please, let go!let go!

...
