Ladies & Gentlemen (CD 1 : for the heart) » Ang lyrics [+ Idagdag +] |
1. _ Faith
Well i guess it would be nice
If i could touch your body
I know not everybody
Has got a body like you
But i've got to think twice
Before i give my heart away
And i know all the games you play
Because i play them too
Oh but i
Need some time off from that emotion
Time to pick my heart up off the floor
And when that love comes down
Without devotion
Well it takes a strong man baby
But i'm showing you the door
'cause i gotta have faith...
Baby
I know you're asking me to stay
Say please, please, please, don't go away
You say i'm giving you the blues
Maybe
You mean every word you say
Can't help but think of yesterday
And another who tied me down to loverboy rules
Before this river
Becomes an ocean
Before you throw my heart back on the floor
Oh baby i reconsider
My foolish notion
Well i need someone to hold me
But i'll wait for something more
Yes i've gotta have faith...

2. _ Hard Day
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
I've never been one
For playing games
You can move your mouth forever
But the words sound just the same
Something like
Bang bang you're dead
Couldn't we just make love instead
Say yes because it's what we do best
And i've had such a hard day
Take me where their eyes can't find us
Without you i may as well just...
How much - do i have to say
What more - do you have to see
What will it take to make you love me
Well you're not the first
You're not the last
You're not even the one who loves me the best
But all i think about is you
So take me where their eyes can't find us
Without you i may as well just...
So take me where their eyes can't find us
Without you i may as well just...
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
Please don't wander from my door
I've never been one
For playing games
You can move your mouth forever
But the words sound just the same
Bang bang you're dead
Shouldn't we just make love instead
Say yes 'cause it's what we do best
And i've had such a hard day
So don't bring me down
Won't you give me a break
Somebody give me a break now!
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
Sweet little boy with oh such a big mouth
Harsh words can get you into hot water
When people don't understand you baby
I'm always here for you
And i
And i will never bring you down, down, down my baby
Trust me
I want you to trust me
Oh trust me
'cause i won't bring you down
(don't bring me down)
I won't bring you down
Do you trust me
Yeah

3. _ Freedom 90
I won't let you down
I will not give you up
Gotta have some faith in the sound
It's the one good thing that i've got
I won't let you down
So please don't give me up
Because i would really, really love to stick around
Heaven knows i was just a young boy
Didn't know what i wanted to be
I was every little hungry schoolgirl's pride and joy
And i guess it was enough for me
To win the race? a prettier face!
Brand new clothes and a big fat place
On your rock and roll tv
But today the way i play the game is not the same
No way
Think i'm gonna get myself happy
I think there's something you should know
I think it's time i told you so
There's something deep inside of me
There's someone else i've got to be
Take back your picture in a frame
Take back your singing in the rain
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
All we have to do now
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see
Is that i don't belong to you
And you don't belong to me
Freedom
You've gotta give for what you take
Freedom
You've gotta give for what you take
Heaven knows we sure had some fun boy
What a kick just a buddy and me
We had every big shot good-time band on the run boy
We were living in a fantasy
We won the race
Got out of the place
I went back home got a brand new face
For the boys on mtv
But today the way i play the game has got to change
Oh yeah
Now i'm gonna get myself happy
I think there's something you should know
I think it's time i stopped the show
There's something deep inside of me
There's someone i forgot to be
Take back your picture in a frame
Don't think that i'll be back again
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
All we have to do now
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see
Is that i don't belong to you
And you don't belong to me
Freedom
You've gotta give for what you take
Freedom
You've gotta give for what you take
Well it looks like the road to heaven
But it feels like the road to hell
When i knew which side my bread was buttered
I took the knife as well
Posing for another picture
Everybody's got to sell
But when you shake your ass
They notice fast
And some mistakes were built to last
That's what you get
I say that's what you get
That's what you get for changing your mind
And after all this time
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes
Do not make the man
I'll hold on to my freedom
May not be what you want from me
Just the way it's got to be
Lose the face now
I've got to live

4. _ Killer
So you want to be free
To live your life the way you wanna be
Will you give if we cry
Will we live or will we die
Tainted hearts heal with time
Shoot bad love so we can
Stop the bleeding
Solitary brother, is there still a part of you that
Wants to live?
Solitary sister, is there still a part of you that
Wants to give?
Solitary brother,is there still a part of you that
Wants to live?
Solitary sister, is there still a part of you that
Wants to give?
If we try to live our lives
The way we wanna be
Solitary brother, is there still a part of you that
Wants to live?
Solitary sister,is there still a part of you that
Wants to give?
Solitary brother, is there still a part of you that
Wants to live?
Salitary sister, is there still a part of you that
Wants to give?
Racism in future kings can only lead to no good
And besides, all our sons and daughters already
Know how that feels

5. _ Monkey
Why can't you do it?
Why can't you set your monkey free?
Always giving into it -
Do you love your monkey or do you love me?
Why can't you do it
Why do i have to share my baby with a monkey?
Oh, i count to ten
But i don't know how and i don't know when
To open my eyes
If you kiss me again
Like you did just now, like you did just then
I've had the rest
Now it's time i had the best
So you tell me that you won't do anymore
Well i'd write your heart a letter
But i think you know me better
If i keep on askin' baby, maybe
I'll get what i'm askin' for
Why can't you do it?
Why can't you set your monkey free?
Always giving in to it -
Do you love your monkey or do you love me?
Why can't you do it
Why do i have to share my baby with a monkey?
Oh i hate your friends
But i don't know how and i don't know when
To open your eyes
Yes the monkey's back again
Do you want him now like you did back then?
I tried my best
But your head is such a mess
So i guess that i don't want you anymore
Well you say you care about me
That you just can't do without me
But you keep on dancin' baby
'til that monkey has you on the floor
Why can't you do it?
Why can't you set your monkey free?
Always giving into it
Do you love the monkey or do you love me?
Why can't you do it
Why do i have to share my baby with a monkey?
Don't look now
There's a monkey on your back
Don't look now
There's a monkey on you...

7. _ Outside
I think i'm done with the sofa
I think i'm done with the hall
I think i'm done with the kitchen table, baby
Let's go outside (let's go outside)
In the sunshine
I know you want to, but you can't say yes
Let's go outside
In the moonshine
Take me to the places that i love best
So my angel she says, don't you worry
'bout the things they're saying, yeah
Got no friends in high places
And the game that you gave away
Wasn't worth playing
Let's go outside
In the sunshine
I know you want to, but you can't say yes
Let's go outside
In the meantime
Take me to the places that i love best
And yes i've been bad
Doctor won't you do with me what you can
You see i think about it all the time
Twenty four seven
You say you want it, you got it
I never really said it before
There s nothing here but flesh and bone
There's nothing more nothing more
There's nothing more
Back to nature, just human nature
Getting on back to
I think i m done with the sofa
I think i m done with the hall
I think i'm done with the kitchen table, baby
Let's go outside
In the sunshine
I know you want to, but you can't say yes
Let's go outside
In the moonshine
Take me to the places that i love best
And yes i've been bad
Doctor won't you do with me what you can
You see i think about it all the time
I'd service the community
(but i already have you see!)
I never really said it before
There's nothing here but flesh and bone
There's nothing more, nothing more
There's nothing more
Let's go outside
Dancing on the d-train baby
When the moon is high
And the grass is jumpin'
Come on, just keep on funkin'
Keep on funkin', just keep on funkin'

8. _ Heal The Pain
Let me tell you a secret
Put it in your heart and keep it
Something that i want you to know
Do something for me
Listen to my simple story
And maybe we'll have something to show
You tell me you're cold on the inside
How can the outside world
Be a place that your heart can embrace
Be good to yourself
Because nobody else
Has the power to make you happy
How can i help you
Please let me try to
I can heal the pain
That you're feeling inside
Whenever you want me
You know that i will be
Waiting for the day
That you say you'll be mine
He must have really hurt you
To make you say the things that you do
He must have really hurt you
To make those pretty eyes look so blue
He must have known
That he could
That you'd never leave him
Now you can't see my love is good
And that i'm not him
How can i help you
Please let me try to
I can heal the pain
That you're feeling inside
Whenever you want me
You know that i will be
Waiting for the day
That you say you'll be mine
Who needs a lover
That can't be a friend
Something tells me i'm the one you've been looking for
If you ever should see him again
Won't you tell him you've found someone who gives you more
Someone who will protect you
Love and respect you
All those things
That he never could bring to you
Like i do
Or rather i would
Won't you show me your heart
Like you should
Won't you let me in
Let this love begin
Won't you show me your heart now
I'll be good to you
I can make this thing true
And get to your heart somehow

9. _ Desafinado (english)
If you say my singing is off key, my love
You would hurt my feelings, don't you see, my love ?
I wish i had an ear like yours,
A voice that would behave
All i have is feeling
And the voice god gave
You insist my music goes against the rules
Yes, but rules were never made for lovesick fools
I wrote this song for you
But you don't care
It's a crooked song, ah,
But my heart is there
The thing that you would see if you would play the part
Is even if i'm out of tune i have a gentle heart
I took your picture with my trusty rolliflex
And now all i have developed is complex
Possibly in vain, i hope you weaken, oh my love
And forget those rigid rules that undermine my dream of
A life of love and music with someone who'll understand
That even though i may be out of tune when i attempt to say
How much i love you
And all that matters is the message that i bring,
Which is: my dear one, i love you

10. _ Fastlove
(gotta get up, get down...)
(gotta get up, get down...)
(ooh ooh, baby baby...)
Looking for some education
Made my way into the night
All that bullshit conversation
Baby can't you read the signs?
I won't bore you with the detail baby
I don't even wannna waste your time
Let's just say that maybe
You could help to ease my mind
Baby, i ain't mr. right
But if you're looking for fastlove
If that's love in your eyes
It's more than enough
Had some bad luck
Some fastlove is all that i've got on my mind
(ooh ooh, baby baby)
Ooh, yeah yeah
(ooh ooh, baby baby)
What's there to think about baby?
(ooh ooh, baby baby)
Hey baby, oh yeah
(ooh ooh, baby baby)
Looking for some affirmation
Made my way into the sun
My friends got their ladies
They're all having babies
I just wanna have some fun
I won't bore you with the detail baby
You gotta get there in your own sweet time
Let's just say that maybe
You could help to ease my mind
Baby, i ain't mr. right
But if you're looking for fastlove
If that's love in your eyes
It's more than enough
Had some bad luck
Some fastlove is all that i've got on my mind
Get yourself arrested for love
So close
I can taste it now baby
So close
In the absence of security
Made my way into the night
Stupid cupid keeps on calling me
But i see nothing in his eyes
I miss my baby, oh yeah
I miss my baby tonight
So why don't we make a little room
In my bmw babe
Searchin' for some peace of mind
Hey, i'll help you find it
I do believe that we are practicing the same religion
Oh you really oughta get up now
That's right
Oh you really oughta get up
(ooh ooh, baby baby...)
Oh yeah....
Looking for some affirmation...

11. _ One More Try
I've had enough of danger
And people on the streets
I'm looking out for angels
Just trying to find some peace
Now i think it's time
That you let me know
So if you love me
Say you love me
But if you don't just let me go...
'cos teacher
There are things that i don't want to learn
And the last one i had
Made me cry
So i don't want to learn to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
Because it ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Whose teacher has told him goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
When you were just a stranger
And i was at your feet
I didn't feel the danger
Now i feel the heat
That look in your eyes
Telling me no
So you think that you love me
Know that you need me
I wrote the song, i know it's wrong
Just let me go...
And teacher
There are things
That i don't want to learn
Oh the last one i had
Made me cry
So i don't want to learn to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
Because it ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Whose teacher has told him goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
So when you say that you need me
That you'll never leave me
I know you're wrong, you're not that strong
Let me go
And teacher
There are things
That i still have to learn
But the one thing i have is my pride
Oh so i don't want to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
Because there ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Who just isn't willing to try
I'm so cold
Inside
Maybe just one more try...

12. _ I Can't Make You Love Me
Turn down the lights, turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head
Lay down with me, tell me no lies
Just hold me close, don't patronize
Don't patronize me
'cause i can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark in these final hours
I will lay down my heart, and i'll feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
And i can't make you love me
If you don't
I'll close my eyes and then i won't see
The love you do not feel, when you're holding me
Morning will come, and i'll do what's right
Just give me till then, to give up this fight
And i will give up this fight
And i can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
And here in the dark in these final hours
I will lay down my heart and i'll feel the power
But you won't, no, you won't
And i can't make you love me
If you don't
Ain't no use in you trying
It's no good for me baby without love
All my tears, all these years, everything i believed in
Baby
Oh yeah
Someone's gonna love me

13. _ Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me
I can't light
No more of your darkness
All my pictures
Seem to fade to black and white
I'm growing tired
And time stands still before me
Frozen here
On the ladder of my life
It's much too late
To save myself from falling
I took a chance
And changed your way of life
But you misread
My meaning when i met you
Closed the door
And left me blinded me by the light
Don't let the sun go down on me
Although i search myself,
It's always someone else i see
I'd just allow a fragment of your life
To wander free
But losing everything
Is like the sun going down on me
Ladies and gentlemen mr. elton john
I can't find
Oh, the right romantic line
But see me once
And see the way feel
Don't discard me (baby don't)
Just because you think i mean your harm
(just because you think i mean your harm, oh)
But these cuts i have, cuts i have
They need love
(they need love, they need love)
To help them heal
Oh, don't let the sun go down on me
Although i search myself,
It's always someone else i see
I'd just allow a fragment of your life
To wander free
Cause' losing everything
Is like the sun going down on me
Don't let the sun go down on me
Although i search myself,
It's always someone else i that see, yeah
I'd just allow a fragment of your life
To wander free baby oh
Cause' losing everything
Is like the sun going down on me

14. _ You Have Been Loved
she takes the back road and the lane
Past the school that has not changed
In all this time
She thinks of when the boy was young
All the battles she had won
Just to give him life
That man
She loves that man
For all his life
But now we meet to take him flowers
And only god knows why
For what's the use in pressing palms
When children fade in mother's armes **** missing
It's a cruel world
We've so mush to lose
And what we have to learn, we rarely choose
So if it's god who took her son
He cannot be the one living in her mind
Take care my love, she said
Don't think that god is dead
Take care my love, she said
You have been loved
If i was weak, forgive me
But i was terrified
You brushed my eyes with angels wings, full of love
The kind that makes devils cry
So these days
My life has changed
And i'll be fine
But she just sits and counts the hours
Searching for her crime
So what's the use of pressing palms
If you won't keep such love from harm
It's a cruel world
You've so much to prove
And heaven help the ones who wait for you
Well i've no daughters, i've no sons
Guess i'm the only one
Living in my life
Take care my love, he said *** he said / not she
Don't think that god is dead
Take care my love, he said *** he said / not she
You have been loved

15. _ I Want Your Sex (part 2)
Oh so much love
That you've never seen
Let's make love
Put your trust in me
Don't you listen to what they told you
Because i love you
Let me hold you
Oh
I'm not your brother
I'm not your father
Oh will you ever change your mind
I'm a gentle lover with a heart of gold
But baby you've been so unkind...oh
Come on
I want your sex
Come on, i want your sex
That's right, all night
Oh, i want your sex
I want your...sex
Sexy baby's

Sexy body
(sexy body)
Keeps me guessing
With a promise
I know we can come together
But the question is
Will we ever?
Together - you and me

16. _ A Different Corner
I'd say love was a magical thing
I'd say love would keep us from pain
Had i been there, had i been there
I would promise you all of my life
But to lose you would cut like a knife
So i don't dare, no i don't dare
'cause i've never come close in all of these years
You are the only one to stop my tears
And i'm so scared, i'm so scared
Take me back in time maybe i can forget
Turn a different corner and we never would have met
Would you care
I don't understand it, for you it's a breeze
Little by little you've brought me to my knees
Don't you care
No i've never come close in all of these years
You are the only one to stop my tears
I'm so scared of this love
And if all that there is, is this fear of being used
I should go back to being lonely and confused
If i could, i would, i swear

17. _ Kissing A Fool
You are far,
When i could have been your star,
You listened to people,
Who scared you to death, and from my heart,
Strange that you were strong enough,
To even make a start,
But you'll never find
Peace of mind,
Til you listen to your heart,
People,
You can never change the way they feel,
Better let them do just what they will,
For they will,
If you let them,
Steal your heart from you,
People,
Will always make a lover feel a fool,
But you knew i loved you,
We could have shown them all,
We should have seen love through,
Fooled me with the tears in your eyes,
Covered me with kisses and lies,
So goodbye,
But please don't take my heart,
You are far,
I'm never gonna be your star,
I'll pick up the pieces
And mend my heart,
Maybe i'll be strong enough,
I don't know where to start,
But i'll never find
Peace of mind,
While i listen to my heart,
People,
You can never change the way they feel,
Better let them do just what they will,
For they will,
If you let them,
Steal your heart,
And people,
Will always make a lover feel a fool,
But you knew i loved you,
We could have shown them all,
But remember this,
Every other kiss,
That you ever give
Long as we both live
When you need the hand of another man,
One you really can surrender with,
I will wait for you,
Like i always do,
There's something there,
That can't compare with any other,
You are far,
When i could have been your star,
You listened to people,
Who scared you to death, and from my heart,
Strange that i was wrong enough,
To think you'd love me too.
I guess you were kissing a fool,
You must have been kissing a fool.

18. _ Careless Whisper
i feel so unsure,
As i take your hand and lead you to the dance floor.
As the music dies...
Something in your eyes,
Calls to mind a silver screen,
And all its sad goodbyes.
Chorus
I'm never gonna dance again,
Guilty feet have got no rhythm.
Though it's easy to pretend,
I know you're not a fool.
I should have known better than to cheat a friend,
And waste a chance that i'd been given.
So i'm never gonna dance again,
The way i danced with you.
Time can never mend,
The careless whisper of a good friend.
To the heart and mind,
Ignorance is kind
There's no comfort in the truth,
Pain is all you'll find.
Repeat chorus
What am i without your love?
Tonite the music seems so loud,
I wish that we could lose this crowd.
Maybe it's better this way,
We'd hurt each other with the things we want to say.
We could have been so good together,
We could have lived this dance forever...
But now, who's gonna dance with me?
Please stay.
(alternatively):
And now it's never gonna be
That way...
Repeat chorus
Now that you're gone...
Now that you're gone...
Now that you're gone...
Was what i did so wrong?
So wrong that you had to leave me alone?

19. _ Praying For Time
these are the days of the open hand
They will not be the last
Look around now
These are the days of the beggars and the choosers
This is the year of the hungry man
Whose place is in the past
Hand in hand with ignorance
And legitimate excuses
The rich declare themselves poor
And most of us are not sure
If we have too much
But we'll take our chances
'cause god's stopped keeping score
I guess somewhere along the way
He must have let us all out to play
Turned his back and all god's children
Crept out the back door
And it's hard to love, there's so much to hate
Hanging on to hope
When there is no hope to speak of
And the wounded skies above say it's much too much too late
Well maybe we should all be praying for time
These are the days of the empty hand
Oh you hold on to what you can
And charity is a coat you wear twice a year
This is the year of the guilty man
Your television takes a stand
And you find that what was over there is over here
So you scream from behind your door
Say what's mine is mine and not yours
I may have too much but i'll take my chances
'cause god's stopped keeping score
And you cling to the things they sold you
Did you cover your eyes when they told you
That he can't come back
'cause he has no children to come back for
It's hard to love there's so much to hate
Hanging on to hope when there is no hope to speak of
And the wounded skies above say it's much too late
So maybe we should all be praying for time

20. _ Spinning The Wheel
Spin the wheel
Five o'clock in the morning
You ain't home
I can't help thinking that's strange
Baby i just want you to know
I won't go through it again
Yes, those clouds are closing in
And i will not accept this as a part of my life
I will not live in fear
Of what may be
And the lessons i have learned...
I would rather be alone than watch you
Spinning that wheel for me
You've got a thing about danger
Ain't you getting what you want from me
You've got a thing about strangers
Baby that's what we used to be
You've got a thing about danger baby
I guess the hungry just can't see
One of these days
You're gonna bring some home to me
Six o'clock in the morning
You ain't home
I can't help thinking that's strange
It seems that everybody takes their chances
These days
Oh yeah we're standing in the rain
And i will not accept this as part of my life etc...
How can you love me
When you are playing with my life
You say give me time and i'll do better i swear
Give me time and i'll lead you back to despair
And i don't want to go back there

21. _ A Moment With You
(you can't keep holding it in when it's something good)
Hey this won't take much time
We won't touch, we'll just wait for signs
And nothing was futher from my mind
Than this moment with you
But if you'd only told me baby
I would have made some other plans
If i'd only seen it sooner
But what away with your hands you had
I wanted that moment with you
I know that is wrong
But "if you need me, i'm here", turns me on
I can't help thinking its a miracle you're here
I can't help thinking its a miracle
Say, don't waste much time
We don't touch, do we baby?
But still my hands are tied
For that moment with you
But if you'd only told me baby
I would have made some other plans
If i'd only seen it sooner
But what away with your hands you had
I wanted that moment with you
You know that i'm strong
And i've no reason to fear, am i wrong?
I can't help thinking its a miracle you're here
I can't help thinking its a miracle
I can't help thinking its a american
I can't help thinking its a miracle
I can't help thinking its a miracle you're here
You can't keep holding it in when it's something good
Get up, get up
You can't keep holding it in when it's something good
Get up, get up
And who can you trust? dealing out justice
With a minimum of fuss
Who baby
Dealing out justice...

22. _ Cowboys And Angels
When your heart's in someone else's hands
Monkey see and monkey do
Their wish is your command
You're not to blame
Everyone's the same
All you do is love and love is all you do
I should know by now, the way i fought for you
You're not to blame
Everyone's the same
I know you think that you're safe
Mister
Harmless deception
That keeps love at bay
It's the ones who resist that we most want to kiss
Wouldn't you say?
Cowboys and angels
They all have the time for you
Why should i imagine
That i'd be a find for you
Why should i imagine
That i'd have something to say
But that scar on your face
That beautiful face of yours
In your heart there's a trace
Of someone before
When your heart's in someone else's plans
Things you say and things you do
They don't understand
It's such a shame
Always ends the same
You can call it love but i don't think it's true
You should know by now
I'm not the boy for you
You're not to blame
Always ends the same
I know you think that you're safe
Sister
Harmless affection
That keeps things this way
It's the ones who persist for the sake of a kiss
Who will pay
Cowboys and angels
They all take a shine to you
Why should i imagine that i was designed for you
Why should i believe
That you would stay
But that scar on your face
That beautiful face of yours
Don't you think that i know
They've hurt you before
Take this man to your bed
Maybe his hands will help you forget
Please be stronger than your past
The future may still give you a chance

23. _ Father Figure
Father figure
That's all i wanted, something special,
Something sacred in your eyes,
For just one moment, to be bold and naked
At your side
Sometimes i think that you'll never understand me
Maybe this time is forever, say it can't be
That's all you wanted, something special,
Someone sacred in your life
Just for one moment, to be warm and naked
At my side
Sometimes i think that you'll never understand me
But something tells me together, we'd be happy
I will be your father figure (oh baby)
Put your tiny hand in mine (i'd love to)
I will be your preacher teacher (be your daddy)
Anything you have in mind (it would make me)
I will be your father figure (very happy)
I have had enough of crime (please let me)
I will be the one who loves you
Until the end of time
That's all i wanted
But sometimes love can be mistaken for a crime
That's all i wanted just to see my baby's blue eyes shine
This time i think that my lover understands me
If we have faith in each other
Then we can be strong
I will be your father figure
Put your tiny hand in mine
I will be your preacher teacher
Anything you have in mind
I will be your father figure
I have had enough of crime
I will be the one who loves you
Until the end of time
If you are the desert, i'll be the sea
If you ever hunger - hunger for me
Whatever you ask for, that's what i'll be
So when you remember the ones who have lied
Who said that they cared
But then laughed as you cried
Beautiful darling, don't think of me
Because all i ever wanted
It's in your eyes baby, baby
And love can't lie, no...
(greet me with the eyes of a child)
My love is always telling me so
(heaven is a kiss and a smile)
Just hold on, hold on
I won't let you go, my baby
I will be your father figure
Put your tiny hand in mine
I will be your preacher teacher
Anything you have in mind
I will be your father figure
I have had enough of crime
So i am gonna love you
Until the end of time
I will be your father
I will be your preacher
I'll be your daddy
I will be the one who loves you
Until the end of time

24. _ Jesus To A Child
Kindness in your eyes
I guess you heard me cry
You smiled at me
Like jesus to a child
I'm blessed i know
Heaven sent and heaven stole
You smiled at me
Like jesus to a child
And what have i learned
From all this pain
I thought i'd never feel the same
About anyone
Or anything again
But now i know
When you find love
When you know that it exists
Then the lover that you miss
Will come to you on those cold, cold nights
When you've been loved
When you know it holds such bliss
Then the lover that you kissed
Will comfort you when there's no hope in sight
Sadness in my eyes
No one guessed
Or no one tried
You smiled at me
Like jesus to a child
Loveless and cold
With your last breath
You saved my soul
You smiled at me
Like jesus to a child
And what have i learned
From all these tears
I've waited for you all those years
And just when it began
He took you away
But i still say
When you find love
When you know that it exists
Then the lover that you miss
Will come to you on those cold, cold nights
When you've been loved
When you know it holds such bliss
Then the lover that you kissed
Will comfort you when there's no hope in sight
So the words you could not say
I'll sing them for you
And the love we would have made
I'll make it for two
For every single memory
Has become a part of me
You will always be my love
Well i've been loved
So i know just what love is
And the lover that i kissed
Is always by my side
Oh the lover i still miss
Was jesus to a child

25. _ Papa Was A Rolling Stone
Papa was a rollin` stone
It was the third of september
That day i`ll always remember, yes i will
`cause that was the day that my daddy died
Never had a chance to see him, no
Never heard nothin` but bad things about him
Mama, i`m depending on you to tell me the truth
Mama just hung her head and said
Chorus
"papa was a rollin` stone
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died
All he left us was alone" (repeat)
Hey, mama, is it true what they say
That papa never worked a day in his life
Some bad talk going around sayin`
Papa had there outside children
And another wife
That ain`t right
Heard some talk about papa and his storefront
Preachin`
Talkin` about saving souls and all the time
Leaching
And dealing in dirt
Stealin` in the name of the lord
But mama she just said
Chorus
Say, i heard my papa was a jack of all trades
Is that what sent papa to an early grave?
Folks say papa would beg, borrow or steal just
To pay his bills.
Hey, mama, folks say papa was never much on thinkin`
Spent most of his time chansin` women and drinkin`
But mother, i`m depending on you to tell me the
Truth
But my mama she just said
Chorus(2x)

26. _ Somebody To Love
Can anybody find me
Somebody to love?
Each morning i get up i die a little
Can't barely stand on my feet
Take a look in the mirror and cry
Lord, what you're doing to me
I have spent all my years in believing you
But i just can't get no relief, lord
Somebody, somebody
Can anybody find me someone to love
I work hard everyday of my life
I work till i ache my bones
At the end i take home my
Hard earned pay all of my own
I get down on my knees and i start to pray
'til the tears run down from my eyes, lord
Somebody, somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love
Everyday i try and i try
But everybody want to put me down
They say i'm goin' crazy
They say i got a lot of water in my brain
Got no common sense
I got nobody to believe
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh, somebody
Somebody can anybody find me
Somebody to love
Got no feel, i got no rhythm
I just keep losing my beat
I'm ok, i'm alright
Ain't gonna face no defeat
I just got to get out of this prison cell
One day i'm gonna be free, lord
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Somebody, somebody, somebody, somebody
Somebody find me somebody
Find me somebody to love
Can anybody find me
Somebody to love
Find me somebody to love!
Find me somebody to love!
Find me, find me, find me, find me

27. _ Star People '97
Star people
Counting your money until your soul turns green
Star people
Counting the cost of your desire to be seen
I do not count myself among you
I may have been living in a dream
It's just there seem so many of you
Can't help but hope there's a difference between
And if i live to be a hundred and one
I will never understand what you are, honey?
I'm looking for sympathy
Just get me on nbc
And where's the hell's my dumb ass pr?
I said maybe your mama gave you up boy
(it's the same old same old)
I said maybe your daddy didn't love you enough girl
(how much is enough)
Star people
Never forget your secret's safe with me
Just look at all the wonderful people
Trying to forget just who and what they have been
Oh, it's a dream
With a nightmare stuck in the middle
Are you serious? i'm just curious
Without all this attention
You'd die
I'd die
We'd die (wouldn't we baby)
And if i live to be a hundred and one
I will never understand what you are (i'm talking to you)
You're looking for sympathy from people who work to eat
And they don't really seem to mind
I said maybe your mama gave you up boy
(it's the same old same old)
I said maybe baby your daddy didn't love you enough girl
How much is enough?
How much is enough?
How much is enough?
Are you serious? i'm just curious
Are you serious? i'm just curious
Yeah more glycerine
Let's go back to the day
Dj (why do you wanna tell me that?)
Dj (get yourself some oprah cash)
Is that what makes a star?
Did you get off on a bad foot, baby
Do you have a little tale to tell
Did you get off on a bad foot, bad, bad foot?
Is that why you're a star?
Do you really think you've got it so hard?
Do you think it might do you some good to look around you
And decide how you might feel
If the pain you felt was real
Tell me
Now nothing comes for nothing, baby
That fame and fortune's heaven sent
And who gives a fuck about your problems, darling
'cos you can pay the rent
You can pay

28. _ Waiting For That Day
So every day i see you in some other face
They crack a smile, talk a while
Try to take your place
My memory serves me far too well
I just sit here on this mountain thinking to myself
You're a fool boy
Why don't you go down
Find somebody
Find somebody else
My memory serves me far too well
It's not as though we just broke up
It's not as though it was yesterday
But something i just can't explain
Something in me needs this pain
I know i'll never see your face again
C'mon now
I've got to be strong now
Now everybody's talking about this new decade
Like you say the magic numbers
Then just say goodbye to
The stupid mistakes you made
Oh my memory serves me far too well
Don't you know that
The years will come and go
Some of us will change our lives
Some of us still have nothing to show
Nothing baby
But memories
And if these wounds
They are self-inflicted
I don't really know
How my poor heart could have protected me
But if i have to carry this pain
If you will not share the blame
I deserve to see your face again
C'mon now
You don't have to be so strong now
Come back
Come back to me darling
I will make it worth your while
Come back to your baby
I miss your kiss
I miss your smile
Seems to me the peace i search to find
Ain't going to be mine until you say you will
Don't you keep me waiting for that day
I know, i know, i know
You hear these words that i say
You can't always get what you want
