I like to give a supershout-out to sin

A song sinead did together with
U2 "the edge" for the movie called
"captive"
----------------------------------
Afraid, but you will not run
Alone, thy will be done
Confessed, but you still feel the shame
Bring me into your arms again
Heroine
Heroine
Heroine
Heroine

Touch these eyes with a broken smile
Touch my mouth with your furrowed brow
With my heart feel my shame
Lead me into rest again
Heroine
Heroine
Heroine
Heroine

The night is long,
But the day will come
With promises were the chosen one
Soak the sea
Sweet taste the rain
Fall tonight into my arms again
Heroine
Heroine
Heroine
Heroine

The night is long
But the day will come
With promises were the chosen one
Soak the sea
Sweet taste the rain
Fall the night into the light of day

Fire (11x)

it's been seven hours and fifteen days
Since you took your love away
I go out every night and sleep all day
Since you took your love away
Since you been gone i can do whatever i want
I can see whomever i choose
I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant
But nothing
I said nothing can take away these blues
`cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you

It's been so lonely without you here
Like a bird without a song
Nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling
Tell me baby where did i go wrong
I could put my arms around every boy i see
But they'd only remind me of you
I went to the doctor n'guess what he told me
Guess what he told me
He said girl u better try to have fun
No matter what you do
But he's a fool
`cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you

All the flowers that you planted, mama
In the back yard
All died when you went away
I know that living with you baby was sometimes hard
But i'm willing to give it another try
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you

(phillip king/frank o'connor)

I am stretched on your grave
And will lie there forever
If your hands were in mine
I'd be sure we'd not sever
My apple tree my brightness
It's time we were together
For i smell of the earth
And am worn by the weather

When my family thinks
That i'm safe in my bed
From night until morning
I am stretched at your head
Calling out to the air
With tears hot and wild
My grief for the girl
That i loved as a child

Do you remember
The night we were lost
In the shade of the blackthorn
And the chill of the frost
Thanks be to jesus
We did what was right
And your maiden head still
Is your pillar of light

The priests and the friars
Approach me in dread
Because i still love you
My love and you're dead
I still would be your shelter
Through rain and through storm
And with you in your cold grave
I cannot sleep warm

So i'm stretched on your grave
And will lie there forever
If you hands were in mine
I'd be sure we'd not sever
My apple tree my brightness
It's time we were together
For i smell of the earth
And am worn by the weather

John i love you
I'm ever so fond of you
Will you wait for me
'til i am heavenly
Oh there's much work to do
But i love you

Oh you're tender
Your name's a whisper

I let tears fall like rain
Apple-sized they were
All over her
And through all of those times
When you could have died
This is what you find

There's life outside your mother's garden
There's life beyond your wildest dreams
There hasn't been any explosion
We're not spinning like dorothy
If you look now then you'll see why
Don't be afraid to cry
This time don't let yourself fly
Child
Pick up those dancing shoes
Kick off those wedding blues
These are the ways
You can choose

Child you're tender
Your name's a whisper

There's life outside your mother's garden
There's life beyond your wildest dreams
There hasn't been any explosion
We're not spinning like dorothy
And if you look now then you'll see why
Don't be afraid to cry
This time don't let yourself fly
Child
Pick up those dancing shoes
Kick off those wedding blues
These are the ways
You can choose

Child i love you
I'm ever so fond of you

(j. mullins)

We used to go out
Walking hand in hand
You told me all the big
Things you had planned
It wasn't long
Till all your dreams came true
Success put me in second
Place with you

You have no time
To love me anymore
Since fame and fortune
Knocked up on our door
And i spend all
My evenings all alone
Success has made a failure of our home

If we could share
An evening now and then
I'm sure we'd find true
Happiness again
You never hold me
Like you used to do
Oh, it's funny what success
Has done to you

You have no time to
Love me anymore
Since fame and fortune
Knocked up on our door
And i spend all my
Evenings all alone
Success has made a failure of our home
Success has made a failure of our home

I never changed
I'm still the same
I never changed
Stop what you're saying
You're killing me
And am i not your girl?
Am i not your girl?
...
Am i not?

(sinead o'connor)

It seems like years since you held the baby
While i wrecked the bedroom
You said it was dangerous after sunday
And i knew you loved me
He thinks i just became famous
And that's what messed me up
But he's wrong
How could i possibly know what i want
When i was only twenty-one?
And there's millions of people
To offer advice and say how i should be
But they're twisted
And they will never be any influence on me
But you will always be
You will always be

If i treated you mean
I really didn't mean to
But you know how it is
And how a pregnancy can change you

I see plenty of clothes that i like
But i won't go anywhere nice for a while
All i want to do is just sit here
And write it all down and rest for a while
I can't bear to be in another city
One where you are not
I would return to nothing without you
If i'm your girlfriend or not

Maybe i was mean
But i really don't think so
You asked if i'm scared
And i said so

Everyone can see what's going on
They laugh `cause they know they're untouchable
Not because what i said was wrong
Whatever it may bring
I will live by my own policies
I will sleep with a clear conscience
I will sleep in peace

Maybe it sounds mean
But i really don't think so
You asked for the truth and i told you

Through their own words
They will be exposed
They've got a severe case of
The emperor's new clothes
The emperor's new clothes
The emperor's new clothes
The emperor's new clothes

[released as a single in 1988, this version is slightly
Different from it's original which can be found on
'the lion and the cobra'. this version features a rap by mc lyte.]


I want your hands on me
What i want, give me
You know i wanna please you
What i wanna do to you

You don't waste no time, do you?
You know i'm looking through you
Why you wanna tease me
I want you to come and please me

Put'em on, put'em on, put'em on me
Put'em on, put'em on, put'em on me
Put'em on, put'em on, put'em on me
Put'em on, put'em on, put'em on me
Put'em on, put'em on, put'em on me
Put'em on, put'em on, put'em on me
Put'em on, put'em on, put'em on me
Put'em on, put'em on, put'em on me

You know that i can thrill you
I want you to call me to you
I wanna move, will you?
I really wanna feel you

Put'em on, put'em on, put'em on me
Put'em on, put'em on, put'em on me
Put'em on, put'em on, put'em on me
Put'em on, put'em on, put'em on me
Put'em on, put'em on, put'em on me
Put'em on, put'em on, put'em on me
Put'em on, put'em on, put'em on me
Put'em on, put'em on, put'em on me

Say hello my name is.......
How my name is lyte, lyte, lyte, lyte, lyte
Look i'm in the mood for love
Look i'm in the mood for love
Simply because you're near me
Simply because you're near me

I'm not the type of girl to put on a show
'cause when i say no, yo i mean no
But when it comes to you
I just can't refuse
I've been around the bush
Give you all types of boot
I love the way you make me feel
I'd never fight it
And when you are near i get so excited
I want you to love me and just touch me
Oh put your hands, put your hands on me

Put your hands on me
Put your hands on me
Put your hands on me
Put your hands on me
Put your hands on me
Put your hands on me
Put your hands on me

Put'em on, put'em on, put'em on me
Put'em on, put'em on, put'em on me
Put'em on, put'em on, put'em on me
Put'em on, put'em on, put'em on me

Hands, gimme those
Hands, gimme loads

I want yours
Gimme, yes
Gimme, yes

Aaahhhh

Put'em on, put'em on, put'em on me
Put'em on, put'em on, put'em on me
Put'em on, put'em on, put'em on me
Put'em on, put'em on, put'em on me

Hands, gimme those
Hands, gimme loads

[this is one of the 12" versions from this song]

I want your
I want your hands on me
What i want, give me
You know i wanna please you
What i wanna do to you

You don't waste no time, do you?
You know i'm looking through you
Why you wanna tease me
I want you to come and please me

I like you, i know you can tell
And you like me, just as well
You wanna make love
Well i want you to touch me
But first of all, baby don't don't rush me
Take it slow and do it easily
Not just to please you but also please me

Put them on, put them on, put them on me
Put them on, put them on, put them on me

When we first met, yes we were attracted
Like bees to a house
Steel to a magnate
You said 'hello' and 'hello how do you do'
You gave a little wink,
I guess you knew that i could hypnotize
Cause that's what i did,
I had to do it like a baby a baby without a bid

I really wanna
Hands on me
What i want, give me
You know that i wanna please you
What i wanna do to you

You don't waste no time, do you?
You know i'm looking through you
Why you wanna tease me
I want you to come and please me

Situations like this there's only one thing to do
You listen to me and i listen to you
It may be to early in the game to tell
But for sure you are qualified to ring my bell
Isn't it real yet sort of like a dreams
That i can be a player with you on my team
Winning individually but yet together
Some problems comes easy, difficult never

Say hello my name is.......
How my name is lyte, lyte, lyte, lyte, lyte
Look i'm in the mood for love
Look i'm in the mood for love
Simply because you're near me
Simply because you're near me

I really wanna feel you

I'm not the type of girl to put on a show
'cause when i say no, yo i mean no
But when it comes to you
I just can't refuse
I've been around the bush
Give you all types of boot
I love the way you make me feel
I never fight it
And when you are near i get so excited
I want you to love me and just touch me
Oh put your hands, put your hands on me
