Foreigner

How many times must i get up
Look out and see the same old view
How many times must i wear the same old things
And hear the same old things that i do, i do
How many times must i clean this face my face
And how many times must i shine my shoes, oh lord
How many times must i drink the same old drink
And dream the same old dreams that i do

Because i, i know one thing
There ain't nothing that could ever ease the pain
But for your line and mine
I want that loving again

How many times must i pass your place. your place
And how many times must i follow you, you
How many times must i see the same old things
When all i should be seeing is you

Because i, i know one thing
There ain't nothing that could ever ease the pain
But for your line and mine
I want that loving again, again

They brang us up with horns and hollywooden songs
Dead snakes and poisoned wisdoms between our teeth
The evil that's been done still is carrying on
And on this night there'll be no peace

The old leaders' bones still beat on our homes
They built our life before us, we had no choice
The evil that's been done still is carrying on
And when they're gone we'll be the voice

Blue bird on a rock, slow wind blowing soft
Across the bare face of the sleeping lake
Rise up and be free, voice whispered to me
And in this way you will awake

Go climb up on a hill, stand perfectly still
And silently soak up the day
Don't rush and don't you roam, don't feel so alone
And in this way you will awake

And in this way you will awake
And this way you will awake

Pick up the pieces you see before you
Don't let your weaknesses destroy you
You know wherever you go the world will follow
So let your reasons be true to you

Stay close to your friends up until the end
And when they know that you feel the same way
Rise up and be free and die happily
And in this way you will awake

And in this way you will awake
And this way you will awake

There are no words, i can use
Because the meaning still leaves for you to choose
And i couldn't stand to let them be abused, by you.

Dreams i had just last night
Made me scared, white with fright
But i'm over to that sunnyside road
Over to that sunnyside road

Fortunes come and fortunes go
But things get better babe, that's one thing i know
And i'm over to that sunnyside road
Over to that sunnyside road

I have a friend that i have met
Who gives me love and a certain respect
Just a little respect, everybody needs just a little respect
That means you. . .you...

And in a little while our love will spread
To you
Ain't no matter who inside this world you know
There'll he someone who will love you just for who you are
Really are

Dreams i had just last night
Made me worried to face up to the light
But i'm over to that sunnyside road
Over to that sunnyside road

Come on now it's freedom calling
Come on over and find yourself
Come on now it's freedom calling
Come on in and remind yourself

You can live in the largest house
And eleven apartments too
Run your own private plane
And a boat in malibu

But 'till you know' deep down what inside you really need
Well i love you baby, ooh my dear
And i think about you sometimes
But when you're with me boy it chokes my mind

Come on now it's freedom calling
Come on over and find yourself
Come on now it's freedom calling
Come on in and remind yourself

Man must fight for freedom sure that's what most other people would say
Look for a body to lead them but there's too many to lead them away.
Why wait until it's your time to die before you learn what you were born to do'?
Come on now it's freedom calling but there's only one freedom for you.
Love, love boy...
And i can't wait to be with you tomorrow night.

Won't you give me your word that you won't laugh
Cos you've been a saving grace to me
And i'd hate to face a day without you around
My life would be without sound

Love, love, love, love must've made you on a sunday
Cos you taste to me as good as god made honey taste babe
And the sky all glistens with gold
When you're talking to me
And the whirling wind turns to song
Why it sets my soul free

Love, love. love. love must've made you on a sunday

There are no words. i can use
Because the meaning still leaves for you to choose
And i couldn't stand to let them be abused, by you

Oh darling, you see my face
But it's in my heart that's where it's taking place
And i couldn't stand to let it go to waste
Can you ...

Oh love, sweet blue love
No man can ever get enough
But maybe one day we'll all die in love
Will you . .. oh love, sweet love, my... love

Oh babe, understand
Take my love that's all i have at hand
Please say you will ... don't say you can't
Oh will you will you will you

The moment you walked inside my door
I knew' that i need not look no more
I've seen many other girls before, ah but darling
Heaven must've programmed you

The moment you fell inside my dreams
I realised all i had not seen
I've seen many other girls before, ah hot darling
Heaven must've programmed you
