It was the night rod stewart played
And we were, were standing in the pouring rain
If i had known it was the last time i would see you again...
I would change everything...

I look through the broken glass i watch the storm go through my mind
There's so much i had to say i know the words i left behind
And now i'm caught in a daydream with nowhere to run and hide
The world rushes by me, it's leaving me here all alone
(i would change everything, but i can't do anything
I would give all that i have to know where you are)

Chorus:
I'll always carry you inside my heart and you
You'll never know how much i wonder where you are
I always knew that you would take a part of me away with you
And i never got to say good-bye

I look in the mirror now and all i see is yesterday
At night i hear your voice and it is calling out my name
And with every hour just hold on to what you can
They're lost in a moment and fading away in the night
(i would change everything, but i can't do anything
I would give all that i have just to know where you are)

Repeat chorus

...and i never..ever...said good-bye...

That night is just a memory
But i still feel you standing next to me
And when i think i hear your voice all i hear is the rain...

Make sure she's alright
She just can't wait to party
She'll make it look so easy
Why won't you listen to me
Yeah

Jealousy - some girls have it rough oh baby
Loyalty - why is that so tough, the trust is gone

Chorus:
Jealous don't you know your girl is jealous
She can't help but be suspicious
Can't you see, that girl is jealous
So better make it right

Cruelty - it's easy for him to be
Fallacy - you're out on a limb for him

Conspiracy anxiety she just can't wait to party
Strategy totally she'll make it look so easy
Loyalty disagree why won't you listen to me
Fantasy novelty she will be free

Repeat chorus

Jealous - it's no fallacy
Jealous - she doesn't trust you much
Suspicious - so baby can't you see that girl
Don't trust you much make sure she's alright

Repeat chorus

Chorus:
Always too hot never too cold
You make your best shot too hot to hold
Never too young
Never too old
You gotta go for gold

Hey boy you wanted all or nothin'
Lose the apprehension baby
And go with the flow cause you know you've got
Stand up if you want the answers
You need to blast 'em straight up baby
So say what you mean and you mean to say now

Hey you don't have to go and prove it
You just go ahead and do it
Your time is for the takin', makin'
The best of what you got now

Repeat chorus

Don't care what they say about ya
You never throw a hero party
For those who oppose who you chose to be now
Maybe you could feel the power
It's like a bomb inside your head that blows if you're
Slow when you go to use it
You, you gotta show them that you mean it just go ahead and scream it
And show them what they're missin' listen
To what your heart could tell ya

Repeat chorus (x2)

You gotta go for gold and you'll make it baby
Gold! and when you're there you gotta
Throw your hands in the air
And wave 'em like you just don't care
Reachin' teachin' practice what you're preachin'
Throw your hands in the air
And wave 'em like you just don't care
Movin' provin' everything you're doin'

Repeat chorus

You, you don't have to go and prove it
You just go ahead and do it
Your time is for the takin', makin'
The best of what you got now
Always too hot
Never too cold
Give your best shot
Go with the flow cause you know you've got to

Repeat chorus

Baby, i've got this thing for you
I'm thinkin' there's somethin' goin' on now
A wicked imagination
A serious kind of somethin' new
It's drivin' me right out of my mind now
It's gotta be desperation
Can't feel no pain when i'm thinking about you
Dreamin' isn't black and white
Can't make no gain 'til my vision c-comes true
Give it to me like i'd like to give it to you

Chorus:
Love i wanna feel your love
Right from the bottom of my heart to your hands
(now baby now) love i wanna feel your love
You know this waitin' for you boy i can't stand

Bein' just who you wanna be and doin' whatever
Comes to mind boy
I gotta get information
Never knew what to do with you
You're givin' me somethin' to hold on to
My newest infatuation
"people power" means i gotta believe you
Can't you hear the voices callin'
Keep your flowers cause their colour will turn blue
Give it to me like i'd like to give it to you

Chorus:
Love i wanna feel your love
Right from the bottom of your heart to your hands
(now baby now) love i wanna feel your love
You know this waitin' for you boy i can't stand

Repeat chorus (x2)

You've got to give it all to baby
You know i want it all for me
I wanna get to know you baby
Is that a possibility

Hey, you're my man, i'm your woman
And i'm not too proud to tell you what you do to my head
I'm not kiddin'
You've got everythin' that any girl would want, yes you do
You're just wishin'
Well it's time you know the truth and that is
When you are beggin' me for money
Just got to tell me what you need
But if you want my lovin' buddy
You've got to get down on your knees

Chorus:
You've got to give what you got and take what i'm givin' you baby
You've got to want what you see and see what i'm givin' away

Hey, stick with me, i'm your momma
And you can run to momma everytime you skin your knee
No one ever
Could ever take your place, the way you move makes me hot
Let me tell you
You won't be satisfied without me
You've got to give it all to baby
You know i want it all for me
I wanna get to know you baby
Is that a possibility

Repeat chorus

Boganvilia fall into the pool
The hard shelled bugs bite my forearm
My right index fingernail chewed to the quick
My cervix is a long scalene
My sprinklers go off at 6pm each day
And sometimes they spray unsuspecting visitors
My pimples are gooses all over my legs
My brow is furrowed and my vision is blurred
And how I do love London
And how I do love London

The birds make guttural sounds and protect me
My friends come to visit and love me a lot
I don't have the energy to fill this
i am lagged from the jet and the 12 hour flight
And how I do love London
And how I do love London

I am intriguied by the boys with the androdonus songs
Sometimes they rhyme sometimes they rhyme not
The steam will smell of eucalyptus in the shower
The hug will feel forced upon you inconsolable thing
And how I do love London
And how I do love London

Deep breaths will not make my brain stand still
To be loved and swallowed are single and depraved
I love speaking french to the taxi drivers
We slept and were cold on the train out of france
And how I do love London
And how I do love London

I'm lookin' for someone who can made me feel
A serious love like juliet's is real
A little impulsive and a boy at heart
A little bit shy but he'll be oh so smart

Superman i need a superman

You got a complicated girl like me
He's gotta be fair and treat me properly yeah
I want him to understand equality
You gotta keep searchin' everywhere in the world
You gotta keep lookin' or you'll miss the feelin'

Chorus:
You gotta be tough to make it today
You do it your way and not how they say
You'll find him somewhere
You gotta be tough to make it today
And never be scared of finding your way
To superman

Should i call him on the telephone
Should i go see him or just stay at home
Will be different from the other boys
If i could find him i'd be overjoyed

Superman where are the supermen
Whenever it seems like everything's on the line
You gotta keep lookin' or you'll miss the feelin'

Repeat chorus

With all the other boys i never knew
What it took to make a choice
When he's mine i'm gonna stop
All my changin' around now
Between the two of us there'll be
Enough goin' on that's serious
I can't wait 'til i can stop
All my lookin' around now

I found my superman i found my superman

Whenever it seems like everything's
On the line you gotta keep lookin' or
You'll miss the feelin'

Repeat chorus

We play the game with determination
We don't give a damn 'bout our reputation baby
It's not a game, it's a revelation
Step inside the real world
The real world...yeahyeahyeah... the real world...yeah...

It's been every day now, and it just won't go away now...no
Life is so intense now, not much common sense now yeah
And late in the night i turn out my light yeah
A song in my head, and it says "step inside the real world"

Chorus:
We play the game with determination
We don't give a damn 'bout our reputation baby
It's not a game, it's a revelation
Just another day in the real world...yeah, the real world

I can make decisions with no one else believin' me
I just look inside me 'cause i've got my own voice to guide me
It came in a dream, a light so extreme yeah
A voice in my head, and it says "step inside the real world"

Repeat chorus

Chorus:
Ya gotta step inside the real world step-in-side-the-real-world
I woke from the dream, i know what it means
A voice in my head, and it says "you're here inside the real world"

Repeat chorus (x2)

A downtown cafe saturday evenin' and the
Place is about to be closed i'm meeting my baby
Yeah and order my hundredth cup of coffee today
My hands are shakin'

At half past seven i'm sittin here waitin' for
My boy all alone for too long it's after eleven
Yeah i'm tired of waitin' and i'm gonna go home
Cause i don't need this

You never think twice before you break all the rules
You gotta be crazy if you think i'm a fool

Chorus:
I'll walk away and say good bye
If you don't want me anymore
I've got my pride
I'll walk away and say good bye
If i don't get the love we had before
Not satisfied

He finally gets here i'm waitin' for him to ask me
Why there's a frown on my face he orders a
Cold beer he has an excuse about his car
Breakin' down but i don't buy it
You're givin' me somethin' i don't need anymore
Just gimme the word and i'll be slammin' the door

Repeat chorus

His best intentions are never the same as what
He does of the end of the day i'm feelin' the
Tension yeah don't gimme no reasons cause you
Don't comprehend what am i feelin'

You never think twice before you break all the rules
You gotta be crazy if you think i'm a fool
You're givin' me somethin' i don't need anymore
Just gimme the word and i'll be slammin' the door

Repeat chorus (x2)

So tell me now
Just say the word
It won't be long
I'll be long long gone...

Testostarone in large amounts
Your Little sister just kick out of
God you can't shave your head
Come to the Show
the boys rock harder
Your mother lent you her slip
She lent you her bright red lipstick
And your shoes are hurting your back
But boy don't you look gorgeaus

You look gorgeous
You look gorgeous
You look gorgeous
How you look gorgeous

This is but an observation
You put a bullet in your foot
You make it hard for us bitches inconsequential in your back bends
And your taste in men leaves something to de desired
You love them to be aloof and self obsessed
They love you in your mini dress

You are looking gorgeous
You're looking gorgeous
You're looking gorgeous
How you look gorgeous

When your voice is raised above a certain level
I'm afraid you must go to the ladies room
I left your competence in curlers

You look gorgeous
You look gorgeous
You're looking gorgeous
How you look gorgeous

Can you relate to what it says
The lyrics are straight from the heart
The soul is expressed in the lyrics
The virtues and vices are released

Chorus:
Keep the radio on,
This song means so much to me
Keep the radio on,
The words live right through me
The lyrics are comforting
Like i expressed them my self
Keep the radio on, the song speaks for itself.

Why can't you relate
To my way of thinking
Why don't you understand
All the things i am feeling
I am not a stranger to opinions
In fact i have my own
I am no stranger to delusions
Although you live through mine

Repeat chorus

Keep the radio on
Keep the radio on
The words have their meaning
Keep the radio on
Can't you feel what they are saying
Keep the radio on

Repeat chorus

My unborn forgive me
I only wish i had the strength to bring
You into this world
More faithful

Why do i feel it's all up to me to see that
Everything's right and it's how it should be
Why don't they just leave me alone
I've got to prove i can
Little girl with stars in her eyes they've
Got her all figured out and there's nowhere
To hide why can't they all see who i am
When will they understand

It may take some time they don't know how
It feels because they can't read my mind
They always say i'm too young and they
Feel they should help me
But i can make it all alone out here on my own
Every day i feel so in demand and all i
Wish i could find is a place i can land
One day i'll feel comfort inside cause i'll
Know who i am

I can hold the line if i know in the end
That i won't be left behind i don't regret
What i've done i don't think you can blame me
Now i'm standin' all alone out here on my own

I'm not thinking 'bout leavin' home
But i need to be on my own
Doesn't mean i have a heart of stone
I won't even ask them why
I can't ever let them see me cry
Here i'm standing all alone out here on my own...
Out here on my own

Feeling lost in a world full of lies
I can't help thinkin' that love is just
Passin' me by hold on to what i believe
And keep an open hand

Can i have it all if there's no one to
Turn to when i stumble and fall
Is there a secret i need because no one
Has told me - all alone

It may take some time cause i know
How it feels to have a lot on your mind
I'll never feel all alone cause i
Know that i have me
Now i can make it all alone out here on my own

I'm wise and ambitious,
And angry and free,
And smart and available,
And sexy...
I'm soft and appealing,
And wearing pajamas,
And twisted and willing,
And crazy...

And this is the story of the death of Cinderella
She'd grow to be a maid if she couldn't find a fella
Who can use her
And it's all you could do not to throw her on the floor.

And thought-provoking,
And opinionated
Cultured and funny,
And experienced...
Fearless and tender,
And sweetly innocent,
Uninhibited,
Likes a good debate.

And this is the story of the death of Cinderella
She'd grow to be a maid if she couldn't find a fella
Who can use her
And it's all you could do not to tie her to the bed.

I could fall in love a million times before I die,
You could draw me a bubble bath,
We could walk into the sunset...

And this is the story of the death of Cinderella
She'd grow to be a maid if she couldn't find a fella
Who can use her
And it's all you could do not to throw her on the floor
And this is the story of the death of Cinderella
I'm gonna grow to be a maid and I'll never find a fella
Who can use me
And that's all you can do not to kick me in the ass.

What did you think i'd be doing now
While you left me, i was thinking aloud
Would there be no end to my sorrow
Will i make it through tomorrow

Chorus:
Let the autumn leaves fall
The chilly raindrops freeze
The white snow melts
I'll just sail on those seas
Fate, fate, fate stay with me
I wanna be, wanna be, wanna be free
Fate, fate, fate stay with me
I wanna be, wanna be, wanna be free

That wouldn't be any fun
I'd rather be lying on the sun
Together alone with you
Beneath the sky of blue

Repeat chorus

Tell me! tell me!
Will my light be blown out crying
Baby! baby!
I feel as though i'm dying

Fate, fate, fate

Repeat chorus into fade

By moon we gather
For the ascension
Great sky shelter us
With your endless compassion

Last survivor
It is you who must pass
Into the light of the new world

Under a sky of innocence
We are now all dying
In a slow black rain
Was it a failure
Of man and angels?
Was it a failure of love?

From this human river
Too cruel for winter
Welcome to the gates
A rehearsal for the silence
Pray we do not enter

Under a sky of innocence
We bathe in the seduction
Beautiful
The light is unraveling now
We open our arms to it

It is close to ground zero

I am no one
Yet i am everyone

We are nothing, but we are all
When i am still, i am inspired

We are not yet born

Half sadness
But half choice

When i am still i can hear
You speak most clearly

Father can you help me
For the ocean is big
And my boat is small

Find the courage

Standing there on a road that leads to anywhere
Like a child left in the wilderness, standing there penniless
Wanting to be the best

Here's a place where life runs at a different pace
Where love is just convenient, none are obedient
And we are subservient

Look at me, i'm a girl that some may preconceive
Why do they try and generalize, why are they antagonizing me
But something i can't control that...

Chorus:
I wantcha
You know i'll never stop 'til i've gotcha
You'll never be quite the same when i rock ya
I'm not the kind of girl that you thought i was
You'll have a good time 'cause i wantcha
I'm breaking down the walls 'till i have you, feel you
Show you the time of your life

Here we are and i wonder how we've come this far
In a world that does not recognize women are victimized
What does that symbolize

Why do i want the things i usually criticize
It may be self destructiveness, or maybe it's emptiness inside
But something i can't control that...

Repeat chorus

You'll have a good time...
It's a lonely road, and no one knows the way that i feel
I'm not giving up now... i'll never try to justify
They'll never understand, you'll be a happy man
You'll have the time of your life

It's something, it's something, it's something that i can't control
The time of your life...

(repeat)

After a year like this one
I'm surprised I do not hate your guts
And, After a year like this one
I'm suprised I still love music just as much
After a year like this one
I'm suprised I did not eat my arm
And, After a year like this one
I'm sorry if I'm not cordial to everyone

La la la la la ....

After a year like this one
I'm suprised I do not hate your guts
And, After a year like this one
I'm suprised I still love music just as much
After a year like this one
I'm suprised I did not eat my arm
And, After a year like this one
I'm sorry if I'm not cordial to everyone

La, la, la, la, la.....

After a year like this one
I'm supised I am convinced at all
And, After a year like this one
I do not roll my eyes at the cynical
And,After a year like this one
I can't help wonder how they've been
After a year like this one
I think I'll leave it all to my next-of-kin

La, la, la, la, la.....

After a year like this one
I'm suprised we're all not raving drunks and
After a year like this one
I want you to choose the restaurant
After a year like this one
I'll need a good whole 16 months alone and
After a year like this one
I think I'll make the west coast beaches my new home

La, la, la, la, la.....

Whenever we talk about sun all i see is the rain
It's like looking for tears in a ocean
I'm hearing your words like the wind
They blow straight through my heart
Will you ever give into emotion

And we hurt the ones that we love the most
Why we do only heaven knows
And i don't know why i'm still holding on...holding on

Chorus:
I reach in my heart to see
If your love is alive in me
But now i feel alone
My feelings turn to stone
My heart makes no apologies

When an apology's made it isn't always enough
To erase all the past in a moment
Whenever i need you the most
You always leave me behind
With a word from your lips i'm alone

You've been blind not to realize
All the love that i hold inside
So tell me why do i keep holding on...holding on

Repeat chorus (x2)

(and we hurt the ones that we love the most
Why we do only heaven knows
And i don't know why i'm still holding on...holding on)

What i need is your sympathy
Like a light flowing into me
Will i ever give up holding on... holding on...

Repeat chorus

Spoken : The women of this family seem to feel that they owe it to the men
of the family to look relaxed, rested, and attractive at dinnertime.

For you they live in a quiet monastery
For you they wear whatever you want them to as long as it is short
They count to ten when you tell them how to drive
And when they're afraid they let you speak for them

All hail the king of intimidation
Mocker of good Christian behavior
For you we wax, we scale, and chicken our legs
For you we chew our nails if we had any left buy fake ones to do it
We counted to 10 temporarily
And it was somethin' about how you talk down to me

All hail the king of intimidation
Mocker of good Christian behavior
The roles of compromising for the family, you don't want some
There's only so much we can do to make your dress short

I am single
I am weary
You're just jealous
You're just confused
You're just hungry
You're in sin now
You're not happy
You are petty

All hail the king of intimidation
Mocker of good Christian behavior
He knows not of what he has wrongly done
Forgive his ignorant behavior
You are tortured
You are captured
You are busted
We were silent
You were tested
You knew better
You are lonely
Was it worth it?
La,la,la

I know there's a reason you're forcing a smile
You hide what you're feeling and you have for a while
I can tell that you're falling
And you feel that you can't go on
But a new day is calling
And you'll see that the feeling is gone

Chorus:
You know you're not the only one
Who has a lot to overcome
And when the time has come then you move on
'cause you've been crying for too long
Sometimes life is so unkind
But change is never a waste of time

I know how you're feeling, i've been there before
The hurting is something much to strong to ignore
Don't be waiting for someone
Who can take all your fear away
When there's no one to listen
That is when you should not be afraid

Repeat chorus

But change is never a waste... it's never a waste of time
