The Seventh One

Side by side, i'll be yours forever
Rain or shine, any kind of weather
There isn't anything i wouldn't do for you
Let's take what's getting old and make it new

Oh, eye to eye, it's a blinding confrontation
You and i, we're a deadly combination
So don't start mixing truth with jealousy
The road we're on is clear as far as i can see

Chorus:
Pamela, don't break this heart of mine
Just remember, it may not heal this time
Pamela, there is no second chance, for the one who leaves it all behind

Black and white always go together
Day and night you're the precious juwel i treasure
Wanting every part of you is not a crime
Or could it be that you're the one who's wrong this time

Chorus:
Pamela, don't break this heart of mine
Just remember, it may not heal this time
Pamela, there is no second chance, for the one who leaves it all behind

(instrumental break)

All that i love (all that i love)
Thousands of miles away, but always in my heart

Chorus:
Pamela, don't break this heart of mine
Just remember, it may not heal this time
Pamela, there is no second chance, for the one who leaves it all behind

Anna please turn around, we'll work it out somehow
Anna don't turn me down, there's still a chance if we can hold out once more

'cause we started out with love, that was more than enough
And that's a lot to give up

Chorus:
Even if you turn and walk away, love will bring you back somehow
I will wait forever and a day, 'cause i believe without a doubt
The time will not run out on our love

Anna you gotta stay, it's just a stage we're going through
And anna this all can change, if we turn the page then we can start all again

'cause we almost touched the sky, and it could never again be this right
Anna please change your mind

Chorus:
Even if you turn and walk away, love will bring you back somehow
I will wait forever and a day, 'cause i believe without a doubt
The time will not run out on our love
(instrumental break)

Chorus:
Even if you turn and walk away, love will bring you back somehow
I will wait forever and a day, 'cause i believe without a doubt
The time will not run out on our love

Chorus:
Even if you turn and walk away, love will bring you back somehow
I will wait forever and a day, 'cause i believe without a doubt
The time will not run out on our love

And i believe without a doubt, the time will not run out
And i believe without a doubt, the time will not run out on our love

Everything's gonna be alright boys, help is on the way
Hold your head up high now, there's no need to cry now
We're not running anymore

Leave the politics behind boys, they're not working anymore
There's so much more at stake here, it's make or break here
Haven't we been here before - tell me what we're waiting for

Chorus:
You gotta remember, you don't have to be afraid
You still have the freedom to learn, and say what you wanna say
You gotta remember, don't let 'em take away
The land we call the home of the brave

Who sings the song of the people, you don't hear it anymore
I heard it late last summer, to the beat of a different drummer
It never sounded quite like that before

So you're trying to shake this feeling, that trouble's right outside the door
You lie awake each dark night, like a time bomb wound up too tight
A storm in waiting, just offshore - tell me what we're waiting for

Chorus

(instrumental break)

Chorus repeats 2x

Boy meets girl on the playground of life
Falls in love for the very first time
Late at night he sees her alone, but she's the type that can never be owned

He can't get her off his mind, but she knows he'll get over her in time
And the world goes round and round

Chorus:
She goes straight for the heart, she serves it sweet and cold
But she goes straight for the heart
It's just the only thing that she's ever known

Boy sees girl on the poor side of town
A city princess with her very own crown
He's too young to be taking such a chance
'cause she walks the streets in the name of romance

Everywhere she goes he's there and she knows, he's just another fool who cares
And the world goes round and round

Chorus

Everywhere she goes he's there and she knows, he's just another fool who cares
And the world goes round and round

She goes straight for the heart, she serves it sweet and cold
But she goes straight for the heart

'cause that's the only thing that she's ever known (repeats 4x)

We keep hurting each other when words can't be easily said
No understanding or reason, just fear and confusion instead
We need hope for the future, and the young need a chance to survive
No one knows the pain that's felt by the innocent, they're
Fighting to stay alive, can no one see the tears in their eyes

Chorus:
Only the children, only the children cry, only the children

Why do those who have plenty ignore those with nothing at all
Why must the ones just beginning, stand with their backs to the wall
They keep asking for answers and we keep on telling them lies
They only want to understand what they feel inside
The hunger that tears them apart
It's the one thing they've known from the start

Chorus - (only the children cry)

(instrumental break)

Chorus repeats ...

You gave me too many chances, now it's drivin' us apart
I keep on runnin' with the boys, girl, but then you knew that from the start
It must keep building up inside you, 'cause you never let it show
I know i'm hanging on the edge now, but i won't let go

I never meant to hurt you, but something was on my mind
Just give me one more chance, we can make it this time

Stay away, stay away from my heart - bet i'm trying my best
Stay away, stay away from my heart

If you gave me three wishes, i'd throw two of them away
I've seen that look in your eye girl, i'd use the last one this way
We've been from rags to riches, but your love can't be bought
I'm just a junkyard dog, girl, who's afraid he's been caught

You're standing in the shadows, watching everything that i do
And i know the way things must look, it couldn't be further from the truth

Stay away, stay away from my heart - i'm doing all that i can
Stay away, stay away from my heart

Remember how it used to be girl, makin' love like it's the last time
We held each other close, not knowing what we'd found
You felt the pounding of my thunder, as your rain was pouring down

(instrumental break)

I never meant to hurt you, but something was on my mind
Just give me one more chance, we can make it this time

Stay away, stay away from my heart - yeah, but i wanna stay here with you
Stay away, stay away from my heart - yeah, i'm doing all i can do
Stay away, stay away from my heart - but i wanna stay away from you
Stay away, stay away from my heart...
