1. _ Love Comes Tumbling
Love don't need to find a way
You find your own way
I forget that i can't stay
And so i say that
All roads lead to where you are
All roads lead to where you are
The seed is spilled, the bed defiled
For you, a virgin bride
Hide yourself in someone else
Don't find yourself in me
I can't lift you up again
Love comes tumbling down again
Love don't need to find a way
You find your own way
I forget that you can stay
And so i say that
All roads lead to where you are
All roads lead to where you are

3. _ Sunday Bloody Sunday
yes...
I can't believe the news today
Oh, i can't close my eyes and make it go away
How long...
How long must we sing this song?
How long? how long...
'cause tonight...we can be as one
Tonight...
Broken bottles under children's feet
Bodies strewn across the dead end street
But i won't heed the battle call
It puts my back up
Puts my back up against the wall
Sunday, bloody sunday
Sunday, bloody sunday
Sunday, bloody sunday (sunday bloody sunday...)
(allright lets go!)
And the battle's just begun
There's many lost, but tell me who has won
The trench is dug within our hearts
And mothers, children, brothers, sisters torn apart
Sunday, bloody sunday
Sunday, bloody sunday
How long...
How long must we sing this song?
How long? how long...
'cause tonight...we can be as one
Tonight...
Tonight...
Sunday, bloody sunday (tonight)
Tonight
Sunday, bloody sunday (tonight)
(come get some!)
Wipe the tears from your eyes
Wipe your tears away
Wipe your tears away
I wipe your tears away
(sunday, bloody sunday)
I wipe your blood shot eyes
(sunday, bloody sunday)
Sunday, bloody sunday (sunday, bloody sunday)
Sunday, bloody sunday (sunday, bloody sunday)
(here i come!)
And it's true we are immune
When fact is fiction and tv reality
And today the millions cry
We eat and drink while tomorrow they die
The real battle yet begun (sunday, bloody sunday)
To claim the victory jesus won (sunday, bloody sunday)
On...
Sunday bloody sunday
Sunday bloody sunday...

4. _ Hallelujah, Here She Comes
I see you're dressed to kill
I know i can't wait until
Hallelujah...here she comes
I see you're dressed in black
I guess i'm not coming back
Hallelujah...here she comes
Born and raised
On the wrong side of town
You get so high
That you can't come down
(yeah)
I see the road is rough
You know i'm not giving up
Hallelujah...here she comes
I know where the lady goes
I know she got a ring on her toes
Hallelujah...here she comes
Born and raised
On the wrong side of town
You get so high
That you can't come down
I'm going higher, higher, higher
Higher, higher, higher
Higher, higher, higher
Higher, higher, higher
I'm gonna be there
When that light's gonna shine
I'm gonna be there
When her heart kindles next to mine
I'm gonna be...
Here she comes
Yeah here she comes
I see you're dressed to kill
I know i can't wait until
Hallelujah...here she comes
I see you're dressed in black
I guess i'm not coming back
Hallelujah...here she comes
Born and raised
In the wrong side of town
You get so high
You can't come down
I'm gonna be there
Higher, higher, higher
Gonna get higher, higher, higher
Gonna get higher, higher, higher
Higher, higher, higher...
I'm gonna be there
When that light's gonna shine
I'm gonna be there
When that light's gonna shine...
Hallelujah...here she comes
Here she comes...

5. _ Bad
If you twist and turn away
If you tear yourself in two again
If i could, yes i would
If i could, i would
Let it go
Surrender
Dislocate
If i could throw this
Lifeless lifeline to the wind
Leave this heart of clay
See you walk, walk away
Into the night
And through the rain
Into the half-light
And through the flame
If i could through myself
Set your spirit free
I'd lead your heart away
See you break, break away
Into the light
And to the day
To let it go
And so to fade away
To let it go
And so fade away
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
Wide awake
I'm not sleeping
Oh, no, no, no
If you should ask then maybe they'd
Tell you what i would say
True colors fly in blue and black
Bruised silken sky and burning flag
Colors crash, collide in blood shot eyes
If i could, you know i would
If i could, i would
Let it go...
This desperation
Dislocation
Separation
Condemnation
Revelation
In temptation
Isolation
Desolation
Let it go
And so fade away
To let it go
And so fade away
To let it go
And so to fade away
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
Wide awake
I'm not sleeping
Oh, no, no, no

6. _ Desire
(yeah)
Lover, i'm on the street
Gonna go where the bright lights
And the big city meet
With a red guitar...on fire
Desire
She's a candle burning in my room
Yeah i'm like the needle, needle and spoon
Over the counter with a shotgun
Pretty soon everybody got one
And the fever when i'm beside her
Desire, desire...
And the fever...getting higher
Desire, desire...burning, burning
She's the dollars
She's my protection
Yeah she's a promise
In the year of election
Oh sister, i can't let you go
Like a preacher stealing hearts
At a traveling show
For love or money money money
Money money money money money
Money money money
And the fever, getting higher
Desire, desire, desire, desire
Desire, desire

8. _ All I Want Is You
You say you want
Diamonds on a ring of gold
You say you want
Your story to remain untold
But all the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all i want is you
You say you'll give me
A highway with no one on it
Treasure just to look upon it
All the riches in the night
You say you'll give me
Eyes in a moon of blindness
A river in a time of dryness
A harbour in the tempest
But all the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all i want is you
You say you want
Your love to work out right
To last with me through the night
You say you want
Diamonds on a ring of gold
Your story to remain untold
Your love not to grow cold
All the promises we break
From the cradle to the grave
When all i want is you
You...all i want is...
You...all i want is...
You...all i want is...
You...

9. _ Three Sunrises
Spirit of the rising sun lift me up
Hold me there and never let me fall
Love me 'til i die, my heart won't wait
Soon i will be loved...
In this love song, love

Wey hey hey, baby hang on
Wey hey hey, baby hang on
Empty heart, beat tight as a drum set
Empty love, she'd shine like a song
Wey hey hey, baby hang on (to anything)
Our love shines like rain

And i love the way you walk on me

But it's those spanish eyes
That get me home...home again
Wey hey hey, baby hang on
Wey hey hey, you know that
The night is young
Dazzled by lights that shine in your eyes
I'm standing in the shadows
And wait for the night
Forever in fever, forever in heat
You pick me up to put me out on the street
Wey hey hey, baby hang on, hang on
Wey hey hey, baby hang on, hang on
'cause i love the way you talk to me
And i love the way you're mean to me
And i need you

11. _ I Will Follow
I will follow...
I was on the outside when you said
You said you needed me
I was looking at myself
I was blind, i could not see
A boy tries hard to be a man
His mother takes him by his hand
If he stops to think he starts to cry
Oh why
If you walkaway, walkaway
I walkaway, walkaway...i will follow
If you walkaway, walkaway
I walkaway, walkaway...i will follow
I was on the inside
When they pulled the four walls down
I was looking through the window
I was lost, i am found
Walkaway, walkaway
I walkaway, walkaway...i will follow
If you walkaway, walkaway,
I walkaway, walkaway...i will follow
I will follow
Your eyes make a circle
I see you when i go in there
Your eyes, your eyes...
If you walkaway, walkaway
I walkaway, walkaway..i will follow
If you walkaway, walkaway
I walkaway, walkaway...i will follow
I will follow
I will follow...

12. _ Where The Streets Have No Name
I want to run
I want to hide
I want to tear down the walls
That hold me inside
I want to reach out
And touch the flame
Where the streets have no name
I want to feel sunlight on my face
I see the dust cloud disappear
Without a trace
I want to take shelter from the poison rain
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
We're still building
Then burning down love
Burning down love
And when i go there
I go there with you
It's all i can do
The city's aflood
And our love turns to rust
We're beaten and blown by the wind
Trampled in dust
I'll show you a place
High on a desert plain
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
We're still building
Then burning down love
Burning down love
And when i go there
I go there with you
It's all i can do
Our love turns to rust
We're beaten and blown by the wind
Blown by the wind
Oh, and i see love
See our love turn to rust
We're beaten and blown by the wind
Blown by the wind
Oh, when i go there
I go there with you
It's all i can do

13. _ I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For
I have climbed highest mountain
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you
I have run
I have crawled
I have scaled these city walls
These city walls
Only to be with you
But i still haven't found what i'm looking for
But i still haven't found what i'm looking for
I have kissed honey lips
Felt the healing in her fingertips
It burned like fire
This burning desire
I have spoke with the tongue of angels
I have held the hand of a devil
It was warm in the night
I was cold as a stone
But i still haven't found what i'm looking for
But i still haven't found what i'm looking for
I believe in the kingdom come
Then all the colors will bleed into one
Bleed into one
Well yes i'm still running
You broke the bonds and you
Loosed the chains
Carried the cross
Of my shame
Of my shame
You know i believed it
But i still haven't found what i'm looking for
But i still haven't found what i'm looking for
But i still haven't found what i'm looking for
But i still haven't found what i'm looking for...

14. _ New Year's Day
Yeah...
All is quiet on new year's day
A world in white gets underway
I want to be with you
Be with you night and day
Nothing changes on new year's day
On new year's day
I will be with you again
I will be with you again
Under a blood red sky
A crowd has gathered in black and white
Arms entwined, the chosen few
The newspapers says, says
Say it's true it's true...
And we can break through
Though torn in two
We can be one
I...i will begin again
I...i will begin again
Oh...
Maybe the time is right
Oh...maybe tonight...
I will be with you again
I will be with you again
And so we're told this is the golden age
And gold is the reason for the wars we wage
Though i want to be with you
Be with you night and day
Nothing changes
On new year's day
On new year's day

15. _ When Love Comes To Town
I was a sailor, i was lost at sea
I was under the waves
Before love rescued me
I was a fighter, i could turn on a thread
Now i stand accused of the things i've said
Love comes to town i'm gonna jump that train
When love comes to town i'm gonna catch that flame
Maybe i was wrong to ever let you down
But i did what i did before love came to town
I used to make love under a red sunset
I was making promises i was soon to forget
She was pale as the lace of her wedding gown
But i left her standing before love came to town
I ran into a juke joint when i heard a guitar scream
The notes were turning blue, i was dazing in a dream
As the music played i saw my life turn around
That was the day before love came to town
When love comes to town i'm gonna jump that train
When love comes to town i'm gonna catch that flame
Maybe i was wrong to ever let you down
But i did what i did before love came to town
[repeat chorus]
I was there when they crucified my lord
I held the scabbard when the soldier drew his sword
I threw the dice when they pierced his side
But i've seen love conquer the great divide
When love comes to town i'm gonna catch that train
When love comes to town i'm gonna catch that flame
Maybe i was wrong to ever let you down
But i did what i did before love came to town

16. _ Luminous Times (hold On To Love)
Hey...sister love
Hey...sister soul
Hey...oh my love
You turn me around tonight
Hey...sister love
Save my soul, save my soul
Hold on to love, hold on to love
Love won't let you go
Love won't let you go
Hold on to love
See the sunshine in her soul
Hey...sister love
Hey...seems so bright
She comes like carnival
She is the big wheel
She turned my head around
Turned my head around
She is the speedway
She is the slipstream
She is coming 'round
Hold on to love
Hold on to love
Love won't let you go
Hold on to love
Hold on to love
She the sunlight in her song
See the sunlight in her soul
She is the gun fire
She is the car crash
She is a avalanche
She is the thunder
She is the waves and
She pulls me under
I love you 'cause i need to
Not because i need you
I love you 'cause i understand
That god has given me your hand
He holds me in a tiny fist
And still i need your kiss
Hold...on to love
Hold...
See the sunlight in her song
See the sunlight in her soul

17. _ Sweetest Thing
My love she throws me like a rubber ball
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
She won't catch me or break my fall
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Baby's got blue skies up ahead
But in this i'm a rain cloud
You know she likes a dry kind of love
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
I'm losing you
Hey hey hey, i'm losing you yeah
Ain't love the sweetest thing
I wanted to run but she made me crawl
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Eternal fire, she turned me to straw
Oh oh, the sweetest thing
You know i got black eyes
But they burn so brightly for her
Mine is a blind kind of love
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
I'm losing you
Oh oh oh, i'm losing you yeah
Ain't love the sweetest thing
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Oh oh, yeah
Blue-eyed boy meets a brown-eyed girl
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
You can sew it up but you still see the tear
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Baby's got blue skies up ahead
And in this i'm a rain cloud
You know we got a stormy kind of love
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Oh oh, the sweetest thing
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

18. _ Silver And Gold
In the shit house a shotgun
Praying hands hold me down
Only the hunter was hunted
In this tin can town
Tin can town
No stars in the black night
Looks like the sky fell down
No sun in the daylight
Looks like it's chained to the ground
Chained to the ground
The warden said
The exit is sold
If you want a way out
Silver and gold
Broken back to the ceiling
Broken nose to the floor
I scream at the silence, it's crawling
It crawls under the door
There's a rope around my neck
And there's a trigger in your gun
Jesus say something
I am someone, i am someone
I am someone
Captain and kings
In the ships hold
They came to collect
Silver and gold
Silver and gold
Seen the coming and going
Seen them captains and the kings
See them navy blue uniforms
See them bright and shiny things
Bright shiny things
The temperature is rising
The fever white hot
Mister, i ain't got nothing
But it's more than you got
Chains no longer bind me
Not the shackles at my feet
Outside are the prisoners
Inside the free
Set them free
Set them free
A prize fighter in a corner is told
Hit where it hurts
Silver and gold
Silver and gold
[spoken part follows:]
Yep, silver and gold... this song was written in a hotel room in new york city 'round about the time a friend or ours, little steven, was puting together a record of artists against apartheid. t
S a song written about a man in a shanty town outside of johannesburg. a man who's sick of looking down the barrel of white south africa. a man who is at the point where he is ready to take up a

19. _ Dancing Barefoot
She is benediction
She is addicted to he
She is the root connection and
She is connecting with me
Here i go and i don't know why
I spin so ceaselessly
Could it be he's taking over me
I'm dancing barefoot
Headed for a spin
Some strange music drags me in
It makes me come up like some heroine
She is sublimation
She is the essence of thee
She is concentrating on
He who is chosen by she
Here i go when i don't know why
I spin so ceaselessly
Could it be he's taking over me
I'm dancing barefoot
Headed for a spin
Some strange strange music drags me in
It makes me come up like some heroine
She is recreation
She intoxicated by thee
She has the slow sensation that
He is levitating with she
Here i go when i don't know why
I spin so ceaselessly
'til i lose my sense of gravity
I'm dancing barefoot
Heading for a spin
Some strange music drives me on
Makes me come up like some heroine
Oh god i feel for you
Oh god i feel for you
Oh god i feel for you
Oh god i feel for you

20. _ Trash, Trampoline And The Party Girl
I know a girl, a girl called party
Party girl
I know she wants more than a party
Party girl
And she won't tell me her name
I know a boy, a boy called trash
Trash can
I know he does all that he can
Wham bam
And he won't tell me his name
I have a heart, a heart that's beating inside
When i was three i thought the world revolved around me
I was wrong
And so i sing along
And if you dance, then dance with me
I know a girl, a girl called party
Party girl
I know she wants more than a party
Party girl
I know a boy, a boy called trampoline
You know what i mean
I think you know what he wants
I think he knows what he wants
I think he knows what he wants

21. _ Angel Of Harlem
It was a cold and wet december day
When we touched the ground at jfk
Snow was melting on the ground
On bls i heard the sound
Of an angel
New york, like a christmas tree
Tonight this city belongs to me
Angel
Soul love...this love won't let me go
So long...angel of harlem
Birdland on fifty-three
The street sounds like a symphony
We got john coltrane and a love supreme
Miles says she's got to be an angel
Lady day got diamond eyes
She sees the truth behind the lies
Angel
Soul love...this love won't let me go
So long...angel of harlem
Angel of harlem
She says it's heart...heart and soul...
Yeah yeah...(yeah)
Yeah yeah...(right now)
Blue light on the avenue
God knows they got to you
An empty glass, the lady sings
Eyes swollen like a bee sting
Blinded you lost your way
Through the side streets and the alleyway
Like a star exploding in the night
Falling to the city in broad daylight
An angel in devil's shoes
Salvation in the blues
You never looked like an angel
Yeah yeah...angel of harlem
Angel...angel of harlem...

22. _ With Or Without You
See the stone set in your eyes
See the thorn twist in your side
I wait for you
Sleight of hand and twist of fate
On a bed of nails she makes me wait
And i wait without you
With or without you
With or without you
Through the storm we reach the shore
You give it all but i want more
And i'm waiting for you
With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you
And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away
My hands are tied
My body bruised, she's got me with
Nothing to win and
Nothing left to lose
And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away
With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you
With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you
With or without you

23. _ Walk To The Water
She said it wasn't cold
She left her coat at home that day
She wore canvas shoes
White canvas shoes
Around her neck
She wore a silver necklace
It was given to me by my father, she said
It was given to me
She took the back way home
Passed the lights and the summerhill
Turned left onto the north strand
And on, and towards the sea
He said he was an artist
But he really painted billboards
In large capital letters
Large capital letters
He was telling jokes
Nobody else would listen to him
I saw you that day
Your lips were cherry red
Your legs were crossed
Your arms wide open
Your hair was coloured gold
Like a field of corn
You were blown by the wind
You were blown by the wind
Walk, walk, walk...to the water
Walk with me a while
Walk, walk, walk...to the roadside
Walk me in the light
A room in the royal hotel
Sea facing views
A man with a suitcase
Full of things he doesn't need
I'm looking through your window
I'm walking through your doorway
I'm on the outside
Let me in
Let me love you
Let me love you
Let me...
Walk, walk, walk...to the water
Walk with me...yeah
Walk, walk, walk...to the roadside
Walk with me again

24. _ The Unforgettable Fire
Ice
Your only rivers run cold
These city lights
They shine as silver and gold
Dug from the night
Your eyes as black as coal
Walk on by
Walk on through
Walk 'til you run
And don't look back
For here i am
Carnival
The wheels fly and the colors spin
Through alcohol
Red wine that punctures the skin
Face to face
In a dry and waterless place
Walk on by
Walk on through
So sad to beseige your love so head on
Stay this time
Stay tonight in a lie
I'm only asking but i...
I think you know
Come on take me away
Come on take me away
Come on take me home
Home again
And if the mountain should crumble
Or disappear into the sea
Not a tear, no not i
Stay in this time
Stay tonight in...
Ever after, this love in time
And if you save your love
Save it all
Don't push me too far
Don't push me too far
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight...

25. _ Everlasting Love
Hearts gone astray
Keeping up when they go
I went away
Just when you needed me so
You won't regret
I'll come back begging you
Don't you forget
Welcome love we once knew
Yeah
Open up your eyes
Then you'll realize
Here i stand was my
Everlasting love
Need you by my side
Come and be my bride
You'll never be denied
Everlasting love
From the very start
Open up your heart
Feel the love you've got
Everlasting love
This love will last forever
This love will last forever
Hearts gone astray
Keeping up when they go
I went away
Just when you needed me so
You won't regret
I'll come back begging you
Don't you forget
Welcome love we once knew
Yeah...
When love's river flows
No one really knows
'til someone's there to show the
Way to lasting love
Like the sun it shines
Endlessly it shines
You always will be mine
Eternal love
Whatever love went wrong
Ours would still be strong
We'd have our own
Everlasting love
This love will last forever
This love will last forever
Open up your eyes
Then you'll realize
Here i said was my
Everlasting love
Need you by my side
Come and be my pride
Never be denied
Everlasting love
From the very start
Open up your heart
Feel the love you've got
Everlasting love

26. _ Pride (in The Name Of Love)
One man come in the name of love
One man come and go
One man come, he to justify
One man to overthrow
In the name of love
What more in the name of love
In the name of love
What more in the name of love
One man caught on a barbed wire fence
One man he resist
One man washed on an empty beach.
One man betrayed with a kiss
In the name of love
What more in the name of love
In the name of love
What more in the name of love
(nobody like you...)
Early morning, april 4
Shot rings out in the memphis sky
Free at last, they took your life
They could not take your pride
In the name of love
What more in the name of love
In the name of love
What more in the name of love
In the name of love
What more in the name of love...

27. _ Unchained Melody
Oh, oh my love
Oh my darling
I've hungered for your touch
A long and lonely time
And time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine
I need your love
I need your love
I need your love
God speed your love to me
Lonely rivers flow
To the sea, to the sea
To the open arms of the sea
Lonely rivers sigh
Wait for me, wait for me
I'll be coming home
Wait for me
Oh, oh my love
Oh my darling
I've hungered for your touch
A long and lonely time
And time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine
I need your love
I need your love
I need your love
God speed your love to me (it to me)
God speed your love to me
(i need your love)
