There's a place for us
Somewhere a place for us
Peace and quiet and open air
Waits for us
Somewhere


There's a time for us
Somedays there'll be a time for us
Time together with time to spare
Time to learn, time to care


Someday
Somewhere
We'll find a new way of living
We'll find there's a way of forgiving
Somewhere...

There's a time for us
Someday there'll be a time for us
Hold my hand and we're halfway there
Hold my hand and i'll take you there
Someday, somewhere
Somewhere...


There's a place for us
A time and a place for us
Hold my hand and we're halfway there
Hold my hand and i'll take you there
Someday, somehow
Somewhere!

How can i be sure
In a world that's constantly changing
How can i be sure where i stand with you
Whenever i'm away from you
I wanna die
'cos you know i wanna stay with you
How do i know
Maybe you're trying to use me
Flying too high and confuse me
Touch me but don't bring me down


Whenever i'm away from you
All my alibi is telling people
I don't care for you
Maybe i'm just hanging around
With my head up, upside-down
It's a pity
I can't seem to find someone
Who is as free to love me as you


How can i be sure
Really, really want to know
Really, really want to know
However, whether or not we're together
Together we'll see much better
I'll love you, i love you forever
You know that i can be found
How can i be sure
How can i, how can i, how can i
Really, really want to know
How can i, how can i, how can i
Really, really want to know
How can i be sure
Really want to know

The most beautiful sound i've ever heard
Maria, maria, maria
Oh, the most beautiful sounds of all the world
A single world
Maria, maria, maria

I've just met a girl named maria
And suddenly that name
Will never be the same to me

Maria, i've just kissed a gril named maria


I 've suddenly found how wonderful a sound can be
Maria, say it loud
And it's almost like music playing
Say it soft, it's almost like praying.
I'll never stop saying
Maria, maria, maria, maria
Maria, maria, maria, maria
Maria, maria


Say it loud and there's music playing
Say if soft

Maria
I'll never stop saying maria

The most beautiful sound i've ever heard
Maria

We're coming to the edge
Running on the water
Coming through the fog
Your sons and daughters
Let the rivers run
Let all the dreamers wake the nation
Come, the new jerusalem


Silver cities rise
The morning lights, the streets that meet them
Sirens call them on with a song

Asking for the taking
Trembling, shaking
Oh, my heart is aching
Coming to the edge, running on the water
Coming through the fog, your sons and daughters
Sing the greatest song
Stand on a star
And blaze a trail of desire
Through the dark'ning dawn

Oh, it's asking for the taking
Come run with me now
The sky is the colour of blue
You've never ever seen
In the the eyes of your lover
My heart is aching
Coming to the edge, running on the water
Coming through the fog, your sons and daughters
Oh, so sing the greatest song
Stand on a star
And blaze a trail of desire
Through the dark'ning dawn
Oh, it's asking for the taking
Trembling, shaking
Oh my heart is aching
Coming to the edge, running on the water
Coming through the fog, your sons and daughters
Oh, so let the rivers run
Let all the dreamers wake the nation
Come, the new jerusalem

Let the rivers run
Let all the dreamers wake the nation
Come, the new jerusalem

Some say love,
It is a river that drowns the tender reed.
Some say love,
It is a razor that leaves your soul to bleed.
Some say love,
It is a hunger, an endless aching need.
I say love, it is a flower,
And you its only seed.
It's the heart, afraid of breaking,
That never learns to dance.
It's the dream, afraid of waking,
That never takes a chance.
It's the one who won't be taken,
Who cannot seem to give.
And the soul, afraid of dying,
That never learns to live.
When the night has been too lonely,
And the road has been to long,
And you think that love is only for
The lucky and the strong
Just remember
In the winter far beneath the bitter snows
Lies the seed that with the sun's love
In the spring becomes the rose.

I can see
You're slipping away from me
And yet so afraid
I'll plead with you to stay
But i'm gonna be strong
And let you go your way


Our love is gone
There's no sense in holding on
Cause your pity now
Would be to much to bear
So i'm gonna be strong
And pretend that i don't care


Chorus:
I'm gonna be strong
And stand as tall as i can
Yes, i'm gonna be strong
And as you walk along
I'll take it like a man


I can see
You're slipping away from me
And yet so afraind
I'll plead with you to stay
But i'm gonna be strong
And let you go your way


Chorus


When you says it's the end
I'll just have you a line
I'll smile and say,
Don't you worry, i'm fine
And you'll never know, darling
After you kiss me goodbye
How i'll breakdown and cry

The higher you build your barriers
The taller i become
The farther you take my rights away
The faster i will run
You can deny me
You can decide to turn your face away
No matter
'cos there's --


Chorus:
Something inside so strong
I know that i can make it
Though you're doing me wrong, so wrong
You thought that my pride was gone
There's something inside so strong
Something inside so strong


The more you refuse to hear my voice
The louder i will sing
You're hiding behind the walls of jericho
Your lies will come tumbling
Deny my place in time
You squander wealth that's mine
My light will shine
So brightly it will blind you
'cos there's --


Chorus


Brothers and sisters
When they insist we're just not good enough
When we know better
Just look 'em in the eyes and say
We're gonna do it anyway
We're gonna do it anyway
We're gonna do it anyway
We're gonna do it anyway


Chorus


Something inside so strong
Something inside so strong
Something inside so strong
Something inside so strong

Sure, i came out here
To make my name
Wanted my pool, my dose of fame
Wanted my parking space at warners'.


But, after a year
A one-room hell
A murphy bed
A rancid smell
Wallpaper peeling at the corners


Sunset boulevard
Twisting boulevard
Secretive and rich, a little scary.


Sunset boulevard
Tempting boulevard
Waiting there to swallow the unwary.


Dreams are not enough
To win a war
Out here they're always keeping score
Beneath the tan, the battle rages.


Smile a rented smile
Fill someone's glass
Kiss someone's wife
Kiss someone's ass
We do whatever pays the wages.


Sunset boulevard
Headline boulevard
Getting here is only the beginning.


Sunset boulevard
Jackpot boulevard
Once you've won you have to go on winning.


You think i've sold out?
Dead right i've sold out.
I just keep waiting
For the right offer:
Comfortable quarters,
Regular rations,
24-hour five-star room service.


And if i'm honest
I like the lady
I can't help being
Touched by her folly.
I'm treading water,
Taking her money,
Watching her sunset...
Well, i'm a writer.


L.a.'s changed a lot
Over the years
Since those brave gold rush pioneers
Came in their creaky covered wagons.


Far as they could go
End of the line,
Their dreams were yours
Their dreams were mine
But in those dreams
Were hidden dragons.


Sunset boulevard
Frenzied boulevard
Swamped with every kind of false emotion.


Sunset boulevard
Brutal boulevard
Just like you, we'll wind up in the ocean.


She was sinking fast
I threw a rope
Now i have suites
And she has hope
It seemed an elegant solution.


One day this must end,
It isn't real
Still i'll enjoy
A hearty meal
Before tomorrow's execution.


Sunset boulevard
Ruthless boulevard
Destination for the stony-hearted.


Sunset boulevard
Lethal boulevard
Everyone's forgotten how they started
Here on sunset boulevard!

There's a grief that can't be spoken
There's a pain goes on and on
Empty chairs at empty tables
Now my friends are dead and gone.


Here they talked of revolution
Here it was they lit the flame
Here they sang about 'tomorrow'
And tomorrow never came


From the table in the corner
They could see a world reborn
And they rose with voices ringing
I can hear them now
The very words that they had sung
Became their last communion
On the lonely barricade at dawn!


Oh my friends, my friends, forgive me
That i live and you are gone.
There's a grief that can't be spoken
There's a pain goes on and on.


Phantom faces at the window
Phantom shadows on the floor
Empty chairs at empty tables
Where my friends will meet no more.


Oh my friends, my friends, don't ask me
What your sacrifice was for
Empty chairs at empty tables
Where my friends will sing no more.
