Show me the magic, I must've lost it somewhere In my dreams, so far away I turned around, every thing's changing but me Where is the soul in my song? And once there was Heaven in my eyes Whatever happened to those skies Somebody show me How to get back to the...

Flamingos walk and sway in peace Seeing this, it makes my troubles cease The sun is hiding, leaving a pink scar That stretches right across the sky That's all we've seen so far And all I do is look into your eyes For that special touch of paradise Just a tou...

From the day that we were born we've been heading down a track Sometimes it's made for good, sometimes for bad But if we look behind us there's a wave coming down Carrying us forward to a new age What about the world around us? How can we fail to see? And now...

There's a time for love and a time for healing You can't go back and undo what's been done The word of mouth, time is revealing Just how far we've let this kingdom come Hand to hand we're finding our way And today is just tomorrow's yesterday Some will die f...

There's a young girl working the corner There's an old man lost at sea They could tell you a million stories About the wrong side of the street There's a rich man making money From a poor man's misery It's always the same Always the same, fight for survival...

The touch of your hand will let me know You take me in and let me go If not for love, why would we meet? How is it done, two into one so easily? We're lifted up by angels Higher than the world Strong enough to leave it Bound to learn the secrets Angels never...

I'm searching for the anger Consider it a gift Open up that window Come betray me with a kiss You have won, if nothing else Rope enough to hang yourself What is that to us? Go beyond the call of love Beyond the dreams of man I have seen where glory...

From the darkness of the ocean There's a wind that comes your way When a hurricane is blowing And there's nothing you can say The world may turn against you But life will take its course Like the storm that pours upon you And hides none of its force I wanna h...

Frozen in silence Facin it alone Gotta keep my cool Make em think I'm made of stone It's a game of wills we're playin A love two made of steel Balanced on the edges of everything we feel It's gonna take of we've got Just to make it through this night...

Don't let me slip back under My motor's running warm I'm rolling with the thunder I'm riding out this storm Burn down the night Burn down the night If you can't make it right Burn down the night So patiently you guide me Whispering in the dark Reach way down...

Got myself into some trouble tonight Guess I'm just feelin' blue It's been so long since I've seen your face This distance between me and you That voice you showed me is not the one that I know I must be strung out on what I do Don't hang up again Ther...

Ooh, one shot in a revolution One drop from a poison pen One fruit, too small and bitter One tree, too proud to bend And one man to start the trouble One kiss to seal your fate One kid that needs some action One link in a chain reaction I've got a fe...

I looked there across to the horizon The moon was bright and high up in the east I stretched out to touch what I was seeing And then I looked up and found it out of reach Diamonds on the water I saw star fire on the sea There were diamonds on the water You do...

Today, such a lonely day I try to find my way But you, only you Occupy my mind And I try to understand the reason why You're pushing me away And I try to understand the reason why Don't let it end 'cause I can't pretend I'm not gonna cry if you do Don't let...

If I could ask you things unspoken Give to you all my honesty If I could show you any token Of the love welling up in me I'd let you see what you mean to me If you could hear me, I'd sing love songs As you drift gently into sleep If you could see me, I'd blow...

Sometimes when people meet Before too long, they feel they were always meant to be Sometimes I look around wondering where I might be now If I'd never met you, I might have never found out what it means To make a simple dream come true without you You've giv...

Never before have i seen you look so blue I can't find a cure and nothing comforts you the light at the end of the tunnel doesn't shine at the end of the day Every time you cry save up all your tears, i will be your rainbow when they disappe...

Things have changed, since we met you It's hard to see your point of view It's not the same, we've been sold out Don't you know, what it's all about Going, going, gone, don't wait too long You can't hold on, if you're too far gone Going, going, gone, the pres...

I'm tryin' to believe in forever And I'm tryin' to believe in The little jewel box life we lead Babe, I get so close sometimes All I really know is I believe That we've been makin' Hard promises to keep You want me to believe in forever Do you know how tight...

See the lovers in the faded photograph She's making funny faces, he's trying not to laugh Do you remember the way we used to be When love lifted us up, made us feel so free? How we betrayed each other Trying to rediscover That feeling once again This i...

Last rites, first blood Maybe a dream but then it's clear enough Can't hide, can't sleep Is it the vision or the body heat? True love's when your heart's on fire If I'm the paper, you're the sparkin' wire True love's when your heart's on fire One step too de...

Who's to say that you don't have the answers Who's to say that you do They say what goes around comes around I believe that it's true The tears will pass away And you'll see the day It's alright, whatever you do It's alright, it's coming back to you It's alr...

Every time you speak, every time you say the things you say All the pain you put me through starts to melt away You say, "Forgive me", and you say your sorry now Keep talking, I'm listening, tell me from the heart Keep talking The words may lead you back into...

If it's all the same to you I'd just as soon not come to see you anymore You're not giving, I'm not taking I'm like a salesman with one foot inside the door Well, I seem to get the feeling That I'm filling in for someone else's time Trapped inside a prison wi...

And then time stood still We touched in the heart of the fire We crossed over lines The magic we shared in our perfect desire Then love came undone in the spell Of something that's broken we danced In the night of satin and lace We were suddenly woken Now w...

It happened once before, it could happen again Do you spend your life not trying anything? It's turning you into what you don't want to be A lonely man You hide yourself away, you hide inside your head Don't you know that life is never what you plan I know wh...

You have no cause to doubt what you see Close your eyes and set your feelings free Who has the right to say that you're wrong? Open your heart and let our love grow strong I want our love to shine down on me Shining down from up above You are part of me I fi...

May you never lay your head down Without a hand to hold May you never make your bed out in the cold You're just like a great and strong brother of mine And you know that I love you true You never talk dirty behind my back And I know that there's those that do...

My day starts off the same Looks like it might rain But I will not complain 'Cause I can see the sun I say my little prayers Running down the stairs The streets are going nowhere But I don't care Because this day is beautiful Nothing's gonna get me down It'...

What kind of fool throws away a chance That may never come again? The chance to forgive and forget What good is pride when it clears the room? Leaves you standing on your own I'm not so proud that I don't know No, I don't want to leave and just say goodbye D...

Where did you come from I knew it all along 'Cause I've been waiting for Someone like you You took me by surprise The look was in your eyes I won't be taking chances any more But it seems like a long time ago I was the only one But one look I was hooked and...

Man got his woman To take his seed He got the power She got the need She spends her life through Pleasing up her man She feeds him dinner Anythign she can She cries alone at night too often He smokes and drinks And don't come home at all Only women bleed O...

In the light of the dashboard Something flickers then dies The last cigarette 'til the next town I'm driving through dreamland Strange and familiar And the rain is coming down Head's down low, moving so slow And I really don't know why I feel so alive When I...

If you want me, come and get me You don't have a chance if you don't move now I'm not waiting any longer You know that I'm playing to win this time When you make your move, I won't hesitate If you take too long, you could be too late This time I'm playi...

Please don't ask me What am I thinkin', it's about you Please don't ask me I never can see you what can I do? My first impulse is to run to your side My heart's not free and so I must hide Please don't ask me What I'm gonna say to you I toss and turn, can't...

Oh yeah Set the wheels in motion And watch them turning round I wanna sail across the ocean I've grown weary of this town Take the pressure down 'Cause I can feel it, it's rising like a storm Take hold of the wheels and turn them around Take the pres...

VERSE 1 Raindrops are falling on my head, I'm just like a guy who's feet are too big for his bed, nothing seems to fit. Those raindrops are falling on my head they keep falling. VERSE 2 So I just did me some talking to my son, and I said I didn't like...

We all have a second skin (Sometimes it's superficial) From without or from within (Can be beneficial) When you have your second skin (All of it essential) You can be almost anything (Very superficial) We all have a second skin (A real infatuation) From witho...

I've been a fool, I have been cruel You put your faith in me Ask myself why, no alibi Now that you're facin' me Did things my way, I've had my say Sometimes I crossed that line But it seemed like a good idea Seemed like a good idea at the time I know...

I've got a strange disposition I've got to dig down deep sometimes Can't explain my reasons I didn't mean to be unkind I could not tolerate The same from you, I know I can't begin to understand If you were me, I'd know I've been so long in love with you Thou...

Holed up in a motel, only she knows why Stars dancing in her eyes Wants her fifteen minutes, so much she could cry She'll take it on at any price She was somebody's mother, somebody's wife Now she's only headline news By her own admission, it had all been a l...

I don't know what you want from me Or what you think a love ought to be I want something that's open and strong As the country, this road's moving on From the mountain to the valley From the ocean to the alley From the highway to the river One emotion to deli...

Well, I told you once and I told you twice But you never listened to my advice You don't try very hard to please me And with what you know it should be easy Well, this could be the last time This could be the last time Maybe the last time I don't know, oh no,...

What did I do Before the day I set my eyes on you? Spending my time Just working at the things I had to do And then I saw your face I was captured heart and soul You gave me so much more You're the reason why I listen in the night And steal the soft...

As the clock winds down on another day Worked your hands to the bone You know no other way You're just working all night, sleeping all day The time of your life just gets taken away Time, time, time and money Slip away from me into the air Time, time and mone...

I've been watching him Wearing you down Somehow you're different When he's around I know you feel it The heart doesn't lie It's going nowhere We both know why And it makes me sad 'Cause you can do better than that I've seen this movie before I'm not gonna wa...

Yesterday haunts me still Somebody just like you She smiled the way you do Memories are all too real Was just too good to be true Something as strong as this Can never fade away Undeniably real True reflections of what I feel There's no use hiding it This th...

Manufacture of consent Turn your fiction into fact The story's more important Than the truth Selective information sold Won't tell us what we should know The printed word is set With biased hands There it is in black and white What you can't see and don't h...

I'm searching for something That's so hard to find I'm falling down mountains I can't seem to climb I'm driving down highways That don't have an end I can't find the sign Am I lost again When all else fails You will be there When all else fails I'll hold on...

Every time I look into the mirror Every time I have to close my eyes I ask myself is it a sin to be a sinner? If it's only something on my mind 'Cause I know that we could never be like we want to be I'm only make believing I'm only self deceiving Tell me, ho...
