From Luxury To Heartache

I was cold till you touched me

Fear had no place to hide
I felt nothing but sadness
Love is the great divide

Felt like someone was counting
The tears that rush from my eyes
I was broken and doubting
Love and my own sweet pride

Come clean, come clean
You know where you've been
Slipping and stepping inside
Come clean, come clean
I know that's a dream
Love is the divide

Felt a rush from the mountain
Oh lord, i pushed you aside
I felt nothing but sadness
I'll be alone tonight

How can we lose? there's no laws to abuse
There was never more passion in crime
You took my hand, told me you'd understand
There'd be time, so much time

I was cold till you touched me
Fear had no place to hide
I felt nothing but sadness
Love is the great divide

This is america the land of dreams
You're lifting me up again

I feel dangerous scared

My children don't like thunder
My children don't like rain
My children don't like fighting
My children play the game
My children don't like violence
My children don't like change
My children don't like silence
My children don't like pain

Hearts are lost and found
(take me to america)
Hearts are lost and found
I'll be you won't stay

Too bad
They've given you a heart, too bad
They've given you a start, too bad
They've given you a heart, too bad
I cannot function, too bad

My children don't like movies
My children don't have dreams
My children don't think money
My children never scheme

(the land of dreams
I've given you everything
That you could ask for)

My children don't like thunder
Don't like rain
Change change change
My children don't like thunder
Rain rain rain

Many lives they come, many lives they go
Without reason
In my heart i know i cannot let go
Without reason

Little children don't you feel so sad
When you come home feeling lost and bad
You got a reason, oh you got a reason
Oh woman, i gave my heart to you
When i found out what you've been through
You got a reason, oh you got a reason

Many lives they come, many lives they go
Without a reason in your heart
How could you know?
In my heart i know i cannot let go

Without a reason in my heart
How could you know?
(i know)
When they find you crying sorrows tears
And it's too late after all these years
You got a reason, gimme that reason
It's boys be strong and girls be weak
But children, careful how you speak
You got a reason, gimme that reason

Many lives they come, many lives they go
Without a reason in your heart
How could you know?
In my heart i know i cannot let go
Gotta reason in my heart and don't you know?

I believe in love
I believe in you baby
What about love?
Give it to me, you gotta give me a reason baby

Little children don't you feel so bad
When you come home feeling lost and sad
You gotta reason
Believe it in your heart and it will show

Yeah baby

I wanna tell you something girl

God intended and you planned it
It was meant to be
Like a lover, or a brother
I'll shield you from the enemy

Don't say forever
Don't say forever
Hold me
Let's stay together
Let's say together
Look in my eyes
Can't you see what i need?

Work on me baby
Work on me baby
I do it better when i'm under pressure
Work on me baby
Work on me baby
Some boys are devils
And some fools say
Maybe we'll work it out

I think we'll work it out

God intended, he depended
On our honesty
Like a lover, like no other
I'll shield you from the enemy

You've been trying baby
Just painting a picture for me
Ain't no use crying darling
When we love so easily

Every day in every way we'll work

United (i get tired of speaking)

What if you're a lonely boy?
What if you're a broken man?
What if you're just tired of speaking?

I live with my heartache, you bet that i do
I'm sad and i'm shaken, i'm empty and so blue
Magical function, i gave it all to you
They say they'll never let you down
United we stand so tall
They say they'll never let you down
United we fall

What if you're a lonely boy?
What if you're a broken man?
What if you're just tired of speaking?
What if you're alone at night?
What if we're all heaven's children?

I grew up in darkness, my enemies few
I gave you my life, it was easy for you
No explanation, this boy has grown up too
That say they'll never let you down
United we stand so tall
They say they'll never let you down
United we stand so tall
They say they'll never let you down
United we fall

I believe the world should always be our standing ground
And i believe the world should hold us close
And spin this great big world around
Don't be scared at night alone
And spin this great big world around

What if you're a lonely boy?
What if you're a broken man?
What if you're just tired of speaking?
What if they break hearts for you?
(and i will never let go)
What if your intent is true?
(no matter how we control)
What if you're just tired of crying
(i will never let you go, no matter how we control)
Heaven's children

I was young but still i knew
People were just frightened too
I would talk, they would not hear me

I have been a lonely boy
I have been a broken man
I am here and still crying
