Free/Body & Soul

Children cry on the street
They don't have enough to eat
Mothers wait for days to end
A hopeless situation they can't mend

Is it good for you?
Is it good for me?
I don't know how the world can sleep
It's just not right to close the door turn out the light

[Chorus]
They'd better be the ones you love
The children ought to get some love
If no-one else should get enough
They'd better be the ones you love

Daddy waits there in line
A little work he hopes to find
Something wrong with times like these
It's enough to bring a man down to his knees

Is it good for you?
Is it good for me?
I don't know how the world can sleep
It's just not right to close the door turn out the light

[Chorus: x2]

Thinking of the children
You better be think about the children
Better be, you better be
Better be the ones you love
Better be, you better be
Better be the ones you love
Yeah yeah yeah

Is it good for you?
Is it good for me?
I don't know how the world can sleep
It's just not right to close the door turn out the light

They'd better be the ones you love
The children ought to get some love
If no-one else should get enough
They'd better be the ones you love

Everybody needs a woman in their life
A mother or a sister, a man may need a wife
If you have a woman in your life
Don't take her for granted you'll regret it by and by

[Chorus]
Don't use her or abuse her, or you'll lose her
She filled with emotion, strong as the sea
Deep as an ocean, and she'll always be
So high on her feelings, high on my list
She's everything, she is nature's gift

Give her the attention that she's worthy of
Show her some respect
And don't take advantage of the fact that she loves you

[Chorus]

Mother nature gave us
Mother nature gave us this creation
Mother nature gave us
Mother nature gave us this creation
Someone you can count on,
She'll always be there whenever you need her

[Chorus]

Weary from giving so much of herself
Never complaining, always seems
So high on her feeling, so high on my list
She's everything she is nature's gift

She's taken my time.
Convinced me she's fine.
But when she leaves, I'm not so sure.
It's always the same.
She's playing her game.
And when she goes I feel to blame.
Why won't she say she needs me?
I know she's not as strong as she seems.

Why don't I see her cry for help?
Why don't I feel her cry for help?
Why don't I hear her cry for help?

I wandered around
The streets of this town
Trying to find sense of it all.
The rain on my face,
It covers the trace
Of all the tears I'd had to waste.
Why must we hide emotions?
Why must we never break down and cry?

All that I need is to cry for help.
Somebody please hear me cry for help.
All I can do is cry for help.

No need to feel ashamed.
Release the pain.
Cry for help.

Cry for help is all I need.
All I need is a cry for help.
Cry for help is all I need.
All I need is a cry for help.

Why must we hide emotions?
Why can't we ever break down and cry?
All that I need is to cry for help.
I will be there when you cry for help.
Why don't I hear her cry for help?

All that I need is to cry for help.
Somebody please hear me cry for help.
All I can do is cry for help.

All that I need is to cry for help.
I will be there when you cry for help.
Is it so hard to cry for help?

Cry for help is all I need.
No need to feel ashamed.
All I need is a cry for help.
Come on and release the pain.
Cry for help is all I need.
Put your trust in me.
All I need is a cry for help.
My love is gonna set you free.

Woooooooooooooo.

Not so long ago my life was, oh, so easy
I did what I want, said what I want
I did what I want, said what I want
Not so long ago my life was, oh, so easy

I did what I want, said what I want
I did what I want, and then you came
Once in my life I found a joy like this
One special moment captured in a kiss
For the rest of my life I may never feel like this again, again

I don't know if I'm ready, I hope I'm strong enough
To be a man that someone can depend on
I don't know if I'm ready but I know I've got enough love

As the days go by I see that it's so easy
To do what I want, say what I want
Do what I want, say what I want
As the days go by, yeah, I feel that it's so easy

To do what I want, say what I want, do what I want
And only once in my life I may find a joy like this
One special moment captured by a kiss
For the rest of my life I may never feel like this again, again

I don't know if I'm ready, I hope I'm strong enough
To be a man that someone can depend on
I don't know if I'm ready but I know I've got enough love
I've got enough love, ooh yeah, I've got enough love, ooh

And only once in your life you may feel like this
One special moment captured in a kiss
For the rest of your life you may never feel like this again

I don't know if I'm ready, I hope I'm strong enough
To be a man that someone can depend on
I don't know if I'm ready but I know I've got enough love

Astley/Fisher

Someone called me just the other day
I thought it was you, but my hopes were washed away
I picked up the telephone, it sent a shiver down my spine
I wanted to hear your voice, and talk about old times

(Chorus)
Remember the days when we walked
The times that we talked for hours and hours
Remember the way it used to be, just you and me
Remember the days

Think it over what I say
I know it could be just like it used to be
Do you believe it baby, do you share my point of view
You know that I mean it baby, and all you have to do is

(Repeat chorus)

What can I do without you, how can I live without you
The day's gonna come, when I'm on the run
So I'm begging you baby please
Remember the days

(Repeat chorus)

What can I do without you, how can I live without you
So come on girl I'm begging you please
Come on and talk to me

The times that we walked
The days that we used to walk out in the park
Remember how it used to be
Do you remember, do you remember how good it used to be

Come on girl, I said come on girl

To the left, to the right, we're gonna rock all night

Astley/West

Do you believe it what the papers say?
They're driving me insane they push me over my limit
Do you believe it they catch me every time?
It ought to be a crime. Wo, the things they say

There ought to be a reason for turning black to white
Sometimes get the feeling that it's done to spite
They don't need a reason to turn your world around

(Chorus)
I'm waiting for the bell to ring
I want the children to sing
And I'm waiting for the bad man to fall
I'm just about done with it all

Do you believe it, when politicians talk
And make, make the people walk into the fire
Do, you concede, is there no reprieve
From their power game, I know there's someone to blame

We ought to be forgiven for taking in their words
They don't even write them now is that absurd
They don't need a reason to tear your world apart

(Repeat chorus)

And I'm just about done with it all

With it all

And I'm waiting, you know I'm waiting
For the angels to sing for the freedom it brings
For the bad man to fall
When the children call, I want the angels to sing
And I'm just about done with it all

And I'm waiting for the bell to ring
I want the children to sing
And I'm waiting for the bad man to fall
I'm done with it all

(Repeat chorus)
