unknown

I left my home by the ocean,
I left my love by the sea,
Dreaming i could sing my songs in the city...

I thought the streets of london
Would be paved with gold,
But the only gold was in the setting sun,
And these city nights are so cold.

And you know that feeling when you've been too long,
And you wanna go home and it's so strong,

I'm going home, i'm going home,
Oh the leaves are falling and the wind is calling
And i must get on the road,
You'll be alone, you'll be alone,
But if you're crying to the rhythm of the falling rain,
It's alright, i'm on my way, i'm going home,
I'm going home, yea...

Jilly she's got a smile in her eye,
And a bed just right for two,
Silly how much i love her, but i do,

Sunny days will be here again,
She whispered in my ear,
Oh lord it's funny how much i've missed the country rain,
That's a sound i love to hear...

And i know that feeling and i've been too long,
And i wanna go home and it's so strong,

I'm going home, i'm going home,
Oh the leaves are falling and the wind is calling
And i must get on the road,
You'll be alone, you'll be alone,
But if you're crying to the rhythm of the falling rain,
It's alright, i'm on the way, i'm going home,
I'm going home, yea...
Oh hold on darling, i'm going home,
I'm on the way, i'm going home,
I'm going home, hold on darling...

I wake with the dawn, something is wrong, then i hear you
Breathing softly by my side,
And i know that i was dreaming of a time that may come when
You would be no longer in my life.

I slip out of bed, i go downstairs,
Still troubled by the power of the dream,
And i know that i don't say it quite as much as i should the
Way i feel and what you mean to me.

You are my lover, you are my friend, you are my life to the
Very end.
You bring me comfort, you keep me warm, you give me hope,
You make me strong, you take me away to a distant shore
And it's with you that i want to stay forevermore.

You go out at night, you're looking so good, people turning
As you walk into the room,
When i stand beside you i can feel the pride in my heart to
Know that you are here with me tonight.

You are my lover, you are my friend, you are my life to the
Very end.
You bring me comfort, you keep me warm, you give me hope,
You make me strong, you take me away to a distant shore
And it's with you that i'm going to stay forevermore.
Yes, it's with you that i'm going to stay forevermore.
Yes, it's with you that i'm going to stay forevermore.

You are my lover,
You are my friend,
Forever more,
Forever more.

I've got every reason to be high,
I've got a place in the heaven beyond,
I've got dreams to live and i've got love to give,
And i know it in my heart and soul,
Where we will be going;

Well i lay me down to the northern sky,
I wake up with the light of the sun,
And the savage beast will surely die,
In the bethlehem far below,
Where we will be going;

Oh... i've got the gold, and i've got the silver,
Oh... and i've got a place to call my own,

It's a way of living forever,
It's a way of living the dream,
It's a way of living the whole life,
Come down to the river,
Come down to the sea;

I remember footsteps on the moon,
After dallas darkened days,
When the whole world seemed to stop and look,
And they ask themselves every day,
Where are we going?

But the bowman turned and carried on,
Hal prepared for childhood's end,
And it came out of dark and wintry skies,
On a terrible december night,
In new york city;

Oh... hey john! are you out there listening,
Oh... way across the universe ?

It's a way of living forever,
It's a way of living the dream,
It's a way of living the whole life,
Come down to the river,
Come down to the sea;

Oh ay oh...
Oh ay oh...
Oh ay oh...
Come down to the river,
Come down to the sea;

I've got every reason to be high,
I've got a place in the heaven beyond,
I've got dreams to live and i've got love to give,
And i know it in my heart and soul,
Where we will be going
Where we will be going
Where we will be going...

Roll away the dawn,
Roll away the dawn and let me see,
The land of the free,
Has anything changed at all;

Sweet liberty,
Sweet liberty is in our hands
It's part of the plan,
Or is it a state of mind?

Horses and men,
Horses and men are on the field,
They didn't yield.
Many have fallen here;

Never forget
Never forget what they have done,
The time will come,
When it will change again.
Never forget!

Talk to me, i need a little advice,
I've got you on my mind,
Words of passion coming out of the night,
You make me feel alive;

I'm not one in a million, i'm a million in one,
Thinking of ways to your heart,
I've got a feeling that it will be your hand,
Taking me higher and higher,

Talk to me! talk to me...
Talk to me! talk to me...

Look at me 'cos i've been looking at you,
I see desire in the night again,
Fascination and mysterious touch,
I know you feel the same;

This is one in a million, it's a million to one,
But i will be your lover in time,
Go with the feeling that is breaking inside,
You will discover it when you,

Talk to me! talk to me...
Talk to me! talk to me...

I am the one, yes i know i am the one,
I am the one for you now,
I want you beside me,
I dream of your body,
I see you and me there forever...

Talk to me! talk to me...
Talk to me! talk to me...

He was but a traveller on the lonely road of life,
She, her name was mary, a lady of the night,
She found him lying in that road, on a winter's night so cold,
Just another poor boy, treat him right;

She saw that he was hungry and gave him food to eat,
She knew that he was weary and he had no place to sleep,
She took him home to her own bed, she lay down his wounded head,
And washed away the world from his hands and his feet,

He was just another poor boy, just another poor boy,
When he cried out in his sleep she held him tight,
Just another poor boy, just another poor boy,
And she gave him love and comfort through the night,
Till the morning's light...

At night she sat beside him, by the fire he would talk,
He said all men were brothers and that love could conquer all,
Many gathered round to hear, many for his life did fear,
In troubled times like these men seldom talked.

Oh they came for him one morning at the breaking of the day,
She woke to hear him calling as they carried him away,
Accusing him of spreading lies and hate,

His public meetings were a danger to the state,
Some soldier said "who was he anyway?"

Just another poor boy, just another poor boy,
And the tears were falling from her face like rain,
Just another poor boy, just another poor boy,
And they hung him on a hillside far away,
And on the ground she lay...poor boy...oh my lord...
Oh my lord...oh my lord...

Just another poor boy, just another poor boy,
And the tears were falling from her face like rain,
Just another poor boy, just another poor boy,
And they hung him on a hillside far away, just another poor boy,
Just another poor boy, just another poor boy,
And she never dreamed she'd see his face again...

I'm standing in the station,
I am waiting for a train,
To take me to the border,
And my loved one far away,
I watched a bunch of soldiers heading for the war,
I could hardly even bear to see them go;

Rolling through the countryside,
Tears are in my eyes,
We're coming to the borderline,
I'm ready with my lies,
And in the early morning rain, i see her there,
And i know i'll have to say goodbye again;

And it's breaking my heart, i know what i must do,
I hear my country call me, but i want to be with you,
I'm taking my side, one of us will lose,
Don't let go, i want to know,
That you will wait for me until the day,
There's no borderline, no borderline;

Walking past the border guards,
Reaching for her hand,
Showing no emotion,
I want to break into a run,
But these are only boys, and i will never know,
How men can see the wisdom in a war...

And it's breaking my heart, i know what i must do,
I hear my country call me, but i want to be with you,
I'm taking my side, one of us will lose,
Don't let go, i want to know,
That you will wait for me until the day,
There's no borderline, no borderline,
No borderline, no borderline...

He walked alone up the rocky road,
To find the place, to read the stone,
And bring the word back, from the top of the mountain,
Where it would be;

The lightning struck, and the thunder roared,
As he lifted it up,
In the name of the lord,
And many waited for the new revelation,
They are ready to go, they're going home;

And the rivers of abraham are running free,
With the dawn of a waking man, and destiny,
To the garden of eden, and paradise,
We will never be broken, and we will never die;

We cross the bridge to the silver bird,
And say goodbye to the ones that we love,
No skies or oceans in the place we are going,
Like seeds on the wind;

The time has come, we shut the door,
We are ready to go, in the name of the lord
A world is waiting for a new destination,
We are ready to go, we're going home;

And the rivers of abraham are running free,
With the dawn of a waking man, and destiny,
To the garden of eden and paradise,
We will never be broken and we will never die;

And the rivers of abraham, are running free,
With the dawn of a waking man and destiny,
To the garden of eden and paradise,
We will never be broken,
We will never die,

And the rivers of abraham are running free,
With the dawn of a waking man, and destiny,
To the garden of eden and paradise
We will never be broken and we will never die.

I'd like you to meet my last queen,
Over there large as life
She's been hanging there for almost a week,
My poor late wife;

What do think of the colour of her skin,
It has the bloom of the rose,
You see she begged me to bring a certain painter in,
And for that picture in her bedroom she would pose;

Well after a while he was driving me mad,
As you could well understand,
Sitting in there, day after day,
With my wife in the palm of his hand...
It was -

"madam please do this and madam please do that",
You've never heard such display,
But he didn't mind he was taking his time,
It was me that had to pay,
"oh madam i think we should take a walk in the woods,
You understand it's the light",
And did i mind, no, i was so kind when they,
Came back in the middle of the night,
And i swear i'll take care of the painter, oh the painter...

Well as you can see it was hard for me,
But something has to be done,
She only has eyes for him and his lies, and as for me,
Not a glance, not a single one;
My orders were severe and she disappeared,
It really was such a shame,
And when they told me she was dead i broke down and said,
"it's that painter, it's him, he's to blame."

With his "madam please do this and madam please do that",
You've never heard such display,
But he didn't mind he was taking his time,
It was me that had to pay,
"oh madam i think we should take a walk in the woods,
You understand it's the light",
And did i mind, no, i was so kind when they
Came back in the middle of the night,
And i hope it's the rope for the painter,
When he's found, it's hellbound for the painter,
I'll get that painter...

We're riding on a rainbow
We're flying free
We're riding on a rainbow
Yes, you and me

There is a place i love in africa,
That they call the rainbow land.
It is a place to grow and live as one,
In a brotherhood of man

There is light that comes from africa,
And its shining round the world.
Let all the colours speak of pride and joy,
In a voice that must be heard

We're riding on a rainbow,
We're flying free,
We're riding on a rainbow,
Yes, you and me.

There is a heart i hear in africa,
And its beating like a drum.
Let everyone get up and to the stars,
We will go marching on.

I had a dream i was in africa,
I was soaring like a bird,
And then a million voices all around,
Was singing to the world...

That we are riding on a rainbow,
We're flying free,
We're riding on a rainbow,
Yes, you and me.

We are together on a rainbow
We're flying free,
We are forever on a rainbow,
Yes, you and me.

We're flying free
We're riding on a rainbow
Yes, you and me

Ship to shore, do you read
Me anymore.
This line is bad, and fading,
Ship to shore, answer my call,
Send me a signal, a beacon to
Bring me home;

I have been to see the world,
Tasted life at every turn,
And all the time,
Your face came back to haunt me;

Day by day the feeling grew,
I know i'm still in love with you,
The farther that i go,
The more i know it, i wanna show it,

Ship to shore, do you read
Me anymore.
This line is bad, and fading,
Ship to shore, answer my call,
Send me a signal, a beacon to
Bring me home;

Moving fast, all systems go,
You and i had time to grow,
Before there was a breakdown in
Transmission;

How i wish that we could turn
The clock back to the days when
We were lovers in the true sense
Of the meaning, you must believe me,

Ship to shore, do you read
Me anymore.
This line is bad, i'm drowning,
Ship to shore, answer my call,
Send me a signal, a beacon to
Bring me home;

Ship to shore, ship to shore,
Ship to shore...

I cannot believe my eyes,
But i think i see a light;
You are everything i've always
Wanted in my life

Don't worry darling,
That's not forever in my eyes,
Just want to hold you for a while,
Nobody knows how it will go,
Spending this night together;

I can hardly believe it's true,
I can hardly believe it's you,
A celebration...

Turn it on and let it fly away,
And let's see what we can do,
Oh little darling, it's really something,
When it's me and when it's you;

I'm going to give you everything i have,
Until the night is through,
Did you ever believe in love?
Did you ever believe in love?

I've got a feeling,
I've got a feeling in my heart,
We'd be together from the start,
Something inside you just cannot hide,
Is waiting the time to show it;

I can hardly believe it's true,
I can hardly believe it's you,
A celebration...

Turn it on and let it fly away,
And let's see what we can do,
Oh little darling, ain't you something,
When it's me and when it's you;

I'm going to give you everything i have,
Until the night is through,
Did you ever believe in love?
Did you ever believe in love?
Well this is it!

Something inside you cannot hide,
Is waiting the time to show it;

And i can hardly believe it's true,
I can hardly believe it's you,
A celebration...

And this is it!

This silent world, we're living in,
Nobody knows, nobody knows 'bout me and you;
In silent words, we talk together,
Nobody hears, nobody hears a word we say;

And i would give anything to be with you now;
Yes i would give anything to be with you now;
Yes i would give anything to be with you now;

In silent dreams, we sleep together,
Holding you tight, holding you tight till morning comes;
With silent eyes, we see each other,
I'm looking at you, i'm looking at you, you look at me;

And i would give anything to see you right now;
Yeah i would give anything to see you right now;
Yes i would give anything to see you right now;

Oh i don't care what the people say,
Our secret will not fall,
'cos i know love is here to stay,
We've got to keep a wall, 'round a silent world;
Come over here darling, come over here and talk to me;

And i would give anything to hold you right now;
Yeah i would give anything to hold you right now;
Yes i would give anything to hold you right now;
Yes i would give anything to hold you right now;

This silent world - i would give anything;
This silent world - i would give anything...

When the night comes she'll be here,
Lying down in my bed,
I have woken way before the dawn,
With all the things that she said;

On and on i hear gondoliers,
Passing in the dark,
It's another moment for the heart,

'cos she means everything to me,
She means everything to me,
I know that i love her;

When the day comes she'll be gone,
From the one who will not see,
He doesn't love her, he doesn't love her any more,
But he will not set her free;

So on and on we've been like aeroplanes,
Passing in the night,
But there's no more hiding it this time,

That she means everything to me,
She means everything to me,
I know that i need her;

There comes a time when we must be,
With those we love,
And she means everything to me,

She means everything to me,
She means everything to me,
She is the one who gives me life,
She will be here with me tonight...

I cannot sleep tonight, i have you on my mind,
Even the wind is calling your name,
Though you are far away, i feel that you are near,
Whispering words from over the sea,
And if you wake in your night,remember that i will be here;

And like the same sun, that's rising on the valley with the dawn,
I will walk with your shadow and keep you warm,
And like the same moon, that's shining through my window here tonight,
I will watch in your darkness, and bring you safely to the morning light.

Where there is love like this, forever, for all time,
I will be there, wherever you lie,
And where there are hearts that live together in one soul,
Nothing on earth will keep us apart,
And if you're crying inside, remember that i will be here;

And like the same sun that's rising on the valley with the dawn,
I will walk with your shadow and keep you warm,
And like the same moon that's shining through my window here tonight,
I will watch in your darkness, and bring you safely to the morning light;
I love you, i love you, i love you;

And if you're crying inside, remember that i will be here;

And like the same sun, that's rising on the valley with the dawn,
I will walk with your shadow and keep you warm,
And like the same moon that's shining through my window here tonight,
I will watch in your darkness and bring you safely to the morning light;

Same sun, same moon,
Same sun, same moon,
Same soul, same heart,
Same world, same stars - you will be forever in my world;

Same sun, same moon,
Same sun, same moon,
Same soul, same heart, oh, i love you i love you i love you,
Same world, same stars - you will be forever in my heart.

A great lord came walking through the forest
One morning with a weapon in his hand;
Rich was his castle, he lacked for nothing,
But killing was his plan;
When a white bird flew by she fell from the sky,
Nothing was found, only blood on the ground, she was gone;

Cursing his fortune,
He turned to the forest to kill once again,
And standing before him was a lovely young woman
With her hand hung in pain,
When he saw her his eyes were filled with desire,
He said "i must have her, she must be mine,
She will be mine..."

He offered her silver, he offered her gold,
But she threw it on the ground,
He fell to his knees and he begged her,
"oh please come with me,
What you wish will be found;"
She said, "sire, i'll go if you'll put up your bow,
And spare these creatures, leave them in peace,
You have no need..."

But her words were lost in the wind
His eyes were fixed on a queen
And all he saw was a woman
And all she was, was a dream...
Oh oh...and all he saw was a woman, and all she was,
Was a dream...

He took her and bound her with ropes tied around her
To his castle he did ride;
In the wood was a bower where stood an an old tower
And he threw her deep inside;
Then the birds left the sky and a terrible cry,
Brought thunder and lightning, rain falling down,
Tears on the ground...

All through the days on her face he would gaze,
For she was lovely as the spring;
No words would she speaketh but "leave them in peace",
And some sad lament she would sing,
Oh one day by the door, through the window he saw
A single white feather lying on the floor.
She was there no more...

Now that great lord is dying,
His cold heart is crying for the love of a girl;
For many an hour he has wept on the tower
For she meant more than the world;
And once in the sky, a white bird flew by,
He lifted his hands, he cried out in pain
"come back again..."

But his words were lost in the wind,
His castle was built upon sand,
All he saw was her memory,
And all he yearns is her hand...
Ah ah..all he has, is the memory,
And all he yearns is her hand.

It's all right i'm not lost,
I've got a reading on the southern cross,
And i've been listening to the radio,
For signs of new life,
Some people find the game too tough,
And there are those who've simply had enough,
But i'm still here and i'm not giving up,
I'm going the distance;

Whatever it takes ... i have to fight,
To build a better world ... and make it right,
And when i am alone ... it's late at night,
I reach out and you're right here by my side;

When everything has gone,
You help me carry on,
You lift me up, you make me strong,
You give love to see me through,
Oo oo oo what would i do,
Without you by my side,

By my side,

And out here on the flight,
I'm on a wing and a prayer tonight,
The moon is showing me the way to go,
I'm flying forever.

I've got what it takes ... to win the fight,
And build a better world ... and make it right,
But when i am alone ... it's late at night,
I reach out and you're here by my side,

When everything has gone,
You help me carry on,
You lift me up, you make me strong,
You give love to see me through,
Oo oo oo what would i do,
Without you by my side,

Always you're in my heart,
Always by my side,
Always you're in my life,
Always right here, and i love you now,
Always you're in my world,
Always i think what would i do without you, without you,
By my side,
Always you're in my heart...
And i need you now...

Old friend, so you're in trouble again, you ask me today,
To try and find a little time, and maybe buy a glass of wine,
Old friend, i'm coming through...

Old friend, yes i remember you, always a smile on your face,
Oh memory from years before, an old man and a little boy,
Old friend, i remember you...

You used to take me fishing down by the wishing well,
One day you threw a wish in, and we listened while it fell,
And you made a wish...

"when the years are heavy, and my heart is growing cold,
Well i wish when the evening comes that there'll always
Be...some old friend who'll miss me too..."

Well i do, so old friend i'm coming through...
Yes, for you i'll always find the time, we will have a bottle
Of wine, old friend, i'm here by your side, oh, to the very end,
Old friend...i miss you too...my dear old friend...
Old friend...old friend...

I was walking down that road, to the place that was my home,
And the memories of a life go on forever,
Here's the village, here's the sea and here's the place where it began,
When i found myself in the arms of lady madonna,
And then i listen for those footsteps, coming down the hall,
A father to his young boy, who was hurting from a fall,
You must have heard me crying, you must have dried my tears,
But you know, i just can't remember, just can't remember,
The son and the father, the son and the father;

Now i'm walking with my boy through the place that is our home,
And the memories of his life are growing forever,
And i'm looking through his eyes at all the wonders of the world,
Then hand in hand we will make this journey together;
And we will talk of men and pirates, and heroes in the dark,
I will tell him of the hungers and the mysteries of the heart,
And i will always hear you crying, i will always dry your tears;

And i pray you'll always remember, always forever
The son and the father, the son and the father...

Up on the hill i see it begin,
Marking the heroes where they fall,
In the stone, in the stone the names of those who have gone;

And over the river, there is a place,
Where they remember boys and men,
Widows talk, widows talk of all that they could have been;

We can hear you, we can hear you whisper our names;
We can see you, we can see you reading our names;

Up here in heaven, we stand together,
Both the enemy and the friend, 'till the end of time,
Up here in heaven, we are forever,
There is only on god up here, for all of the world;

What of the children caught in the war,
How can we tell them what it's for,
When they cry, when they cry are voices heard anymore?

Are you listening, are you listening men of the war?
There is nothing, there is nothing worth dying for;

Up here in heaven, we stand together,
Both the enemy and the friend, 'till the end of time,
Up here in heaven, we are forever,
There is only one god up here, for all of the world;
There is only one god up here, the god of the world.

Oh my brave hearts, we must leave this land tomorrow,
We can't live here anymore,
And in the quiet hours, we talk before the dawn;

And the old hearts, they are calling from the shadows,
Telling us we must not go, oh but we cannot fight
The power of the gun, to take away our land,
They take it from our sons, swear it on my hands,

We will return to run here like the wolf,
And see the hunter's moon, and watch our river flow,
It's not gone forever;

Oh my bold hearts, we will go down to the city,
We will live by city light, but in the darkest hour,
We'll keep this fire alive;

We will grow strong, we will bring our wealth together,
Never showing what we have,
And when the time has come, we'll reach out for the gun,
Taking back our land, take it for our sons,
Swear it on my hands,

We will return to run here like the wolf,
And see the hunter's moon, and watch our river flow,
We will return to touch the open sky,
And see the eagle fly, and feel the morning rain
It's not gone forever,
We're gonna come back...
We will return...

The autumn leaves were falling
On those old cathedral walls,
There were candles in the darkness,
Singing in the choir,
And reading out the names,
Of all the ones who've gone before,
Well i could tell that you were thinking,
About the meaning of it all.

And you said to me "who will open up my eyes,
To the wonder and the glory, and the stars in the sky"
And you said to me
"for this road i'm travelling on,
I need someone beside me forever. who?"
And i said, "it's me, and i'm ready to go, ready to show
That i'll never let you down.
And i want you to know, that this power will grow,
Every day, every beat of my heart,
Forever, forever...
We went down to the river,
And we found a small cafe,
They say that over in the corner
Sat the writer ernest hemmingway
And here he made his story of the lovers in the war,
Anmd through it all they stayed together till the rain had
To fall,
And you said to me, "who will be the one apart,
Who will teach me, with conviction all the ways of the
Heart?"
And you said to me
"on this journey of my life,
I need someone to love me forever. who?"
And i said listen:
"it's me,and i'm ready to go,
Ready to show, that i'll never let you down.
And i want you to know, that this power will grow,
Every day every beat of my heart,
I love you, i love you, it's me,
Amd i'll never let you down,
And i want you to know that this power will grow,
Every day every beat of my heart,
Forever, i love you, forever...

And he laid her down in a field of corn,
And the sun was on his back,
Up above there was, a clear blue sky,
She held him by the hand,
She had known him since they both were young,
He'd been always in her life,
And the first time that he had kissed her lips,
She knew it deep inside, that this was;

Love of a different world, love of the life,
Love of the ancient ones, love of the heart divine;

Through the long hot days and the summer nights,
He was always by her side,
Just a boy and girl in an innocent world, before the flanders tide,
When the autumn leaves had turned to gold,
She would have her wedding day,
And the people sang like an angel choir,
And everybody said that this was;

Love of a different world,love of the life,
Love of the ancient ones,love of the heart divine;

Then the winter came, and the winds of war were blowing with the snow,
And he looked so fine in his uniform, she knew that he must go,
When the soldiers left on the morning train,
She was waving him goodbye,
And as the tears rolled down, for the very first time,
The baby kicked inside, and this was;

Love of a different world,love of the life,
Love of the ancient ones,love of the heart divine;

Love of a different world,love of the life,
Love of the ancient ones,love of the heart divine.

Blonde hair, blue jeans, best thing i've ever seen,
She looks great, she feels good, lives in my neighbourhood,
And when she walks past my house she brings me to my knees,
It's like a long dark shadow falling over me; i'm talking 'bout

Blonde hair, blue jeans, she haunts me in my dreams
I wake up, i fall down, i'm lost in what i've found,
Because she lies beside me and whispers in my ear, please, please,
And when i start to kiss her she just disappears;

I'm gonna be where i wanna be,
That's holding her right next to me,
I'm gonna get her in my life, anyway at all; i'm talking 'bout

Blonde hair, blue jeans, best thing i've ever seen,
We're so right, we're skintight, and i'll be with her tonight,
I'm gonna bring her up and take her on the floor,
And when the morning comes then she's gonna beg for more,

I'm talking 'bout, blonde hair, blue jeans,
I'm talking 'bout, i'm talking 'bout,
Blonde hair, blue jeans.

Living in this fantasy, working with reality,
I have come back here again,to touch the sun and feel the rain,
Invitations, conversations,friends to make me strong,
I've seen that light, and i watch it shine, living in the world;

Well i believe that destiny is written in the darkest sea,
With every movement that we make, and every footstep that we take,
Inspirations, correlations, where we're meant to be,
There's so much more that i want to know,living in the world;

Oh-oh still the hunger, oh-oh to see it all,
Oh-oh and the wonder of the sunlight in the morning,
And the moonlight on the bay,
I'm singing now;

Oh oh oh oh...oh oh oh oh.
Oh oh oh oh, living in the world
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh...
Living in the world.

Don't believe a word you read, and only half of what you see,
'cos there are those who make it up, just to make that extra buck,
And when they write the poison,they will surely get it back,
And i'm still here, and i'm gonna stay, living in the world;

Oh-oh - in the spotlight, oh-oh - it can be hard,
Oh-oh - it's a hotlight, when it's shining on the tough,
That's when the tough begin to shine,
I'm singing now;

Oh oh oh oh...oh oh oh oh.
Oh oh oh oh, living in the world,
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh,
Living in... the world;

I've seen the wonder of the forest in the light,
I've seen the miracle of winter birds in flight,
I've seen the universe come flashing in the night,
Living in the world;

And when they call me, i will be waiting, when it's time to go,
But i'm not ready yet!

Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh,
Living in the world,
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh,
Living in the world,
Living in the world,
Living in the world.

Living in, living in, living in the world......

Saint peter's gate

I was lost in the dark,
And the fear was in my heart,
All around me the forest and the rain,
Then with the flash of a light, i saw it in the night,
I must be getting near - saint peter's gate!

When i went through the door, he was standing in the hall,
An old man with a beard of shining white,
He said "i've been expecting you, let me show you to your room",
And he took me all the way by candlelight,
And lying there on the bed, a book, black & red,
My name was written on the front in gold,
And when i opened it up, there were pictures of my life,
And a voice began to call from down below;

Nobody will get through, nobody,
Not even you, can escape the judgement day,
Nobody will be spared, heaven is only there,
For the ones who satisfy them at - saint peter's gate.

"come with me" said that old man, as he took me by the hand
"there is someone here that you have seen before,
In this room on the left, a man who did his best,
To bring joy and happiness to one and all;

But in that room on the right, a dictator in life,
We've been waiting for him here,as you can tell,
For all the blood he's spilled,
And for all the ones he's killed,
We condemn him to eternity in hell;

Nobody will get through, nobody,
Not even you, can escape the judgement day,
Nobody will be spared,heaven is only there,
For the ones who satisfy them at - saint peter's gate.

I woke up with the dawn, there was someone in my room,
A woman, like an angel all in white,
And then she told me "you must run, for your time has yet to come,
Go now, before they change their minds",

And from the window i saw,
A thousand or more,
Bringing that dictator to his knees,
And his cries broke the sound,
Of my footsteps on the ground,
As i made it to the safety of the trees:

Nobody will get through,
Nobody not even you,
Can escape the judgement day,
Nobody will be spared,
Heaven is only there,
For the ones who satisfy them at...
Saint peters gate.

Nobody will get through,
Nobody not even you,
Can escape the judgement day,
Nobody will be spared,
Heaven is only there,
For the ones who satisfy them at,
St peters gate.

When i wake up in the morning she is there,
With her sleepy smile and a long night of windy hair,
And when i hold her close beside me,
Well it feels so good,
That i'd like to stay here all day long,
If there's a way that i could;

And when we go downstairs and start off onto the day,
Just one more cup of coffee, and i'm on my way,
We may not have perfection,
But we're halfway there,
And i know it's sentimental,
But i just wanted to say,

That all the love i have inside me is for you,
All the love i have inside me is for you,
All the love i have inside me is for you;

And when i've had a heavy day and i'm going home,
She gives me time if she sees i want to be alone,
Ah but when the evening's over,
And we go to bed,
Here comes the same old feeling,
It's like a song in my head,

Well all the love i have inside me is for you,
All the love i have inside me is for you,
All the love i have inside me is for you;
Here's my love song to you, you...

I want it.....

Four in the morning and i just can't sleep
I've got a craving now for something sweet
So i head off for my local all-night supermarket,
When i get there, it's deserted;

And now i'm standing at the chocolate shelf,
Under the sign that says, "help yourself"
If you really gotta have it,
Then we really gotta sell it to ya
This is for people who say....

I want it and i want it now!
I want it and i just can't wait!
I want it and i want it now.
I want it and i will not wait......

I want it.......now

I sit at home and when i watch tv,
I gotta have remote control with me,
Oh and when i'm watching football,
I can go to total recall,
I got freeze frame, i got slo - mo.

This is the way that it was meant to be,
You gotta get ready for the century
I'm a total modern man,
And i got total modern plans
And it's so easy when you say.....

I want it and i want it now!
I want it and i just can't wait!
I want it and i want it now.

I gotta get a feel to try, gotta get a meal inside,
Gotta get a deal tonight, i gotta say....
I want it now, i want it now, i want it now,
And i just can't wait....



I want it and i want it now!
I want it and i just can't wait!
I want it and i want it now.
I want it and i will not wait...
I want it now, i want it now, i want it now,
And i just can't wait

I want it now, i want it now, i want it now,
And i just can't wait

Here it is the new sensation,
Listen to the new generation,
We want something, we want it now!

You don't need no invitation,
Listen to the new conversation,
We want something, we want it now.......

We want it now,

I never knew love was so nice,
I never kissed anyone twice,
I never wanted a beau;
Poor me! i just didn't know.
You came along, i got a thrill;
One kiss from you, i feel it still.
Now each time you look my way
You're gonna hear me say:

Come on and do what you do!
It seems so new, what you do,
It thrills me through, what you do;
So do what you do some more!
You know i love what you do,
Keep dreaming of what you do;
Don't be above what you do,
But do what you do some more!

Can't get enough of the kisses you throw me,
I need a big supply;
Give me the kisses you owe me.
Oh, me! oh, my!
Do i adore what you do?
More and more, and more, and more what you do,
I'm crazy for what you do,
So do what you do some more!

Some people fall in love
In rooms that are so dark.
They can't see where they are going
And they lose their hearts.
But when i saw your face,
It was a light so strong!
I could feel a long night coming on...!

In your eyes...!
In your eyes...!

And i saw driving down to the river;
Laughing in the rain;
Dancing out in the moonlight;
Papers in bed!
And i saw your delights as a lover
Until the break of day!
And oh... every time i look
It's you and me together... in your eyes.

Some people say that time changes everything.
With love there's no way of knowing
What the world may bring.
But i don't mind at all, because it's you and me!
And all i've ever wanted, i can see...

In your eyes...!
In your eyes...!

And we are driving down to the river;
Laughing in the rain;
Dancing out in the moonlight;
Papers in bed.
And i feel your delights as a lover
Until the break of day!
Oh and every time i look
It's you and me together in your eyes!

In your eyes...!
In your eyes...!

And i feel your delights as a lover
Until the break of day!
And oh every time i look
It's you and me forever... in your eyes!

In your eyes...!
In your eyes...!

Driving down to the river...
Your delights as a lover...
Dancing out in the moonlight...

Searchlights, rain on the road,
Waiting for the airport limousine,
Your time in this foreign land,
Is nearly over, i'll never forget how

Last night, after he called,
You held me like you'd never let me go,
But your eyes are happy now,
And you are beautiful, you're ready to leave me,

Homeward, back to your world,
Back to the one who is there,
Go now, but go in love,
For it's the only way;

And you'll be crying, laughing,
Half a world away,
You'll be crying, laughing,
For the love we have,
When you go away...

Long ride, holding her hand,
Looking all the words we cannot speak,
One mile to the boulevard,
And the aeroplane that's waiting to take you

Homeward, back to your land,
Back to the one who is there,
Go now, but go in love,
For it's the only way,

And you'll be crying, laughing,
Half a world away,
You'll be crying, laughing,
For the love we have,
But you must go,
Crying, laughing,
Half a world away,
You'll be crying, laughing,
Don't forget me love,
When you go away...

Is it real, what i feel, is it love,
Is it love that's making me weak, in the night,
And when she's next to me,
I just stumble on my words,
And all the things i want to say,
Come out wrong,
I am lost in a dream,
But i know this is more than it seems,
I need a little help;

Someone put on a love song,
To bring her closer to me,
All i want is this diamond in the dark,
To begin what must be;

When she turns at her name, when she smiles,
When she smiles, i feel it again, in my heart,
Across the crowded room,
She is just a dance away,
And i can feel her like a fire that's burning strong,
She keeps looking at me,
And i know this was all meant to be,
And then it had to come;

Someone put on a love song,
To bring her closer to me,
All i want is this diamond in the dark,
To begin what must be,
All i want is this diamond in the dark,
To begin what must be,
All i want is this diamond in the dark, to begin what must be,
All i want is this diamond in the dark, to begin what must be.

Nothing can compare with the connemara coast,
Gazing out in silence with the one you love the most,
The beauty of this place and the echoes deep inside,
Make me think we're only just a moment in time;

Then lead on good light gently through the night,
Hand in hand together we will cross that line;

Nothing can compare with the way you are tonight,
Lying here beside me in the firelight,
And one thing i will say before this journey's end,
That more than being my lover, you are my friend;

Then lead on good light gently through the night,
Hand in hand together we will cross that line,
Whatever may come and wherever we may go,
I will always be with you,
Because you are my heart and soul,

Whatever may come and wherever we may go,
I will always be with you,
Because you are my heart and soul.
