You Are Everything

From a run-down cathedral that stood on the edge of the city
On sundays came a sound i will always recall
It was sweet and complete
And it flowed through this cold-hearted city
And it sends me a heavenly shiver to think of it now ...

Come hear the voices of san pedro's children ...
Fill the air - oh-oh oh-oh ...
Joining hands and voices for the world to share ...

And how the cathedral would ring ...
When san pedro's children would sing ...
You'd hear them going ...
La la la la
La la la la la ...

"vaya con dios, mi amigo, en las noches felices"
I could not understand, but the message i found
'cause the heavens seemed to translate
The words they were singing
And i know that somewhere an angel is writing it down

Come hear the voices of san pedro's children ...
Fill the air - oh-oh oh-oh ...
Joining hands and voices
For the world to share ...

And how the cathedral would ring ...
When san pedro's children would sing ...
You'd hear them going ...
La la la la
La la la la la ...

Time presses on and they tore down that run-down cathedral
Never will the joy ring so clear through the town
But on sundays if you stand very still ...
As the sun's coming over the hill ...

I swear ...
Sweet lord ...
I hear them goin' ...

La la la la la ...
La la la la la ...
La la la la la ...

Come hear the ...
Come hear the ...

Voices of san pedro's children ...
Fill the air - oh-oh oh-oh ...
Joining hands and voices
For the world to share ... - oh-oh oh-oh ...

La la-la la la la la la la la-la ...
La la-la la la la la la la la-la ...
La la-la la la la la la la la-la ...
La la-la la la la la la la la-la ...

When the sun goes down on a saturday night
You will find her on the street
In her red ferrari with her top pulled down
You can feel, you can feel the heat
Got her motor runnin' and the wind in her hair
She ain't got nothing to lose
And her skin tight jeans
He'll be the wreck of a man
She will give, she will give you the blues
She will give, she will give you the blues
Cool it down now cool it down
11 o'clock we're ready to rock
11 o'clock yeah we ready to rock

Hot shot city on a saturday night
We're gonna party down until the morning light
Hot shot city on a saturday night
We're hotter than rock'n' roll
She's burning baby in my soul
Check it out, check it out

Let your hair down baby
We've been rocking all night
Now the sun's coming over the hill
We like to sleep all day, like to party all night
Our love is like red hot steel
Our love is like red hot steel
Cool it down now cool it down
11 o'clock we're ready to rock
11 o'clock yeah we ready to rock

Hot shot city on a saturday night
We're gonna party down until the morning light
Hot shot city on a saturday night
We're hotter than rock'n' roll
She's burning baby in my soul
Check it out, check it out

Down in barbados, jamaica too
It's partytime for me and you
In guadaloupe and martinique
And the dominican republic
They're dancing limbo under
Clear blue sky
In the tropical paradise
They're drinking rum in the hot
Sunshine
It's caribbean partytime

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh it's
Caribbean partytime
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh it's
Caribbean partytime
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh it's
Caribbean partytime
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh it's
Caribbean partytime

Forget your troubles,
Forget your cares
Calypso music's ringin'
In your ears
Down on the beach both night
And day
You can hear those
Steel-bands play
The pirateships go sailing by
Under the carribbean sky
The sea is green
And the sky is blue
It's partytime for me and you

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh it's
Caribbean partytime
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh it's
Caribbean partytime ...

When you're lookin at me thru the mirror
Tell me what you see
Am i just a face in the magazines baby
Is that how you want it to be
Flesh and blood
That's what i am lady
I need lovin too
And it ain't enough to treat me
Like some kind of freaky
Playboy pleasure machine
This man has a human heart
Show me that you have one too

Give me something real, girl
Give me something i can hold on to
Step into the real world
Of my sweet love
Cos this heart needs
More than a fantasy
Give me something real, girl

I'm not afraid to dive too deeply
I'm not afraid to live
And i'm not afraid if the tears start flowing
Like a river does to the sea
Cos i'm following the beat of my heart
And all that i want you to do is

Give me something real, girl
Give me something i can hold on to
Welcome to the real world
Of my sweet love
Cos this heart needs
More than a fantasy
Something i can feel, girl
Something i can feel

Cos i'm following the beat of my heart
Show me that you have one

Give me something real, girl
Give me something i can hold on to
Take me to the real world of your sweet love
Cos this heart bleeds like any other

Like a ship that's tossed out
On the ocean
We get caught up swimmin'
In the motion
Hearts were sailing, love was on
The right track
Got out so far that
We can't get back
But darlin we can't
Let our hopes go down
It's tough to find out were
There's solid ground

You've gotta reach out
Take hold of my hand
You've gotta reach out
Till you're safe on dry land
You've gotta hold on
Baby never give up
You've gotta reach out
When you're caught in the current of love

Keep your eye out, search for
The horizon
Life's a struggle,
Full of compromises
There'll be storms but we'll soon
See the sun shine
And i won't quit until i know
You're mine
If i can get you
In my arms tonight
We'll stay together
If you hold on tight

You've gotta reach out
Take hold of my hand
You've gotta reach out
Till you're safe on dry land
You've gotta hold on
Baby never give up
You've gotta reach out
When you're caught in the
Current of love

You've gotta reach out
Take hold of my hand
You've gotta reach out
Till you're safe on dry land

I remember the day you came into my life
I remember how time stood still
You were my lover my friend my joy
You were my life
I loved you then and i always will

How time has its way with things
And all the changes it brings - baby

If i could only say goodbye
There will always be a part of me for you
If i could find the reason why
If i could only say goodbye

I remember the day you walked out of my life
Thought the sorrow would never end
Then the tears came and all the joy
Was out of my life
Felt the heartbreak would never mend

Seems times like a stormy sea
Look what it's done to you and me - baby

If i could only say goodbye
There will always be a part of me for you
If i could find the reason why
If i could only say goodbye

Did we ever live a lie ?
Could i ever call you my friend ?
Will you always be a part of me ?
How can real love ever end ?

If i could only say goodbye
There will always be a part of me for you
If i could find the reason why
If i could only say goodbye

If i could only say goodbye
I know the love will never die
If i could only say goodbye

Try to see the thing from the other side
Don't forget where you come from
What went down before doesn't matter now

The best is yet to come ...

Yesterday is only a memory
'cause it's over, said and done ...
Listen close and you'll hear the laughter
The best is yet to come ...

Things have got to get better ...
Keep your face to the sun
And if we all just stick together

One for all ...
All for one ...
The best is yet to come

Life's a song and you are the melody ...
Though you might hear a different drum ...
Don't get satisfied with the rhythm ...

The best is yet to come ...

We have passed the edge of our innocence living fast
Living fast 'cause dreams die young
Don't get all caught up in moment

The best is yet to come ...

Things have got to get better ...
Keep your face to the sun ...
And if we all just stick together

One for all ...
All for one ...
One for all ...

When the darkness closes in
Don't be discouraged
Just remember
(everything's gonna be alright)
When your back's against the wall
Keep your spirit standing tall
Don't surrender
Because ...

The best is yet to come ...

Raise your glass it's time now to celebrate
Every nation
Every tongue
We've got to keep our eyes on the future
Cause the best is yet to come

Na na na nana nanana
Na na na nana nanana
Na na na nana nanana
The best is yet to come
