Meat Loaf

Some say it's wrong, some say it's right Some say it's politicians playing both sides Some say it's greed, some say it's change Some say it's all just the price we'll have to pay And I feel a storm coming in And I see the earth bending in the wind It's...

If you listen, to the night You can hear the darkness call I can barely stand to wait I can barely stand at all C'mon closer to me now It's like we're sharing the same skin We gotta get out of this jail We gotta let the future in So many things in your life Th...

And as the band began to play Without a song they lose their way A song of love and custom dreams A song of yesterday When they danced When they danced Her skirts were lifted high She felt the music in his arms The danger in his eyes And a woman said no And...

We search for an answer, And when it appears We can challenge the world with our sweat and our tears. Through winning and losing, The brave never bend, The hero keeps fighting, standing tall in the end. Time can change anything...and mend any fall. The moment...

I'm still alive Must have been a miracle It's been a hell of ride Destination still unknown It's a fact of life: If you make one wrong move with the gun to your head You better walk the line or you'll be left for dead I'm a runaway train on brok...

I caught a glimpse of myself today Wasn't a pretty picture, I must say Well, I threw a dagger of poison words straight for my heart Was it deserved? Well, it's too late to make up some excuse and say it wasn't me Well, what's the use? Oh, you've seen too much...

I was nothing but a lonely boy Looking out for something new And you were nothing but a lonely girl But you were something Something like a dream come true. I was a varsity tackle and a hell of a block When I played my guitar I made the canyons rock, b...

Love's an hourglass It goes out wide the comes in closer Time ticks away Drifts away leaving empty sanded shoulders Who said that love could last forever Oh, I'm growing tired of feeling like I do As we drift apart Little secrets come between us As we sail aw...

They say you never come home, boy you been drivin' too fast When you gonna shape up, how long is this gonna last You may be laughin' today, but listen to some good advice An' take a look at tomorrow in a workin' man's weary eyes You gotta pick a career, go f...

(Steinman) The sea is whipping the sky The sky is whipping the sea You can hide away forever from the storm But you'll never hide away from me The icy cold will cut us like a knife in the dark And we may lose everything in the wind But the Northern Lights are...

The sirens are screaming and the fires are howling, way down in the valley tonight. There's a man in the shadows with a gun in his eye, and a blade shining oh so bright. There's evil in the air and there's thunder in sky, and A killer's on the bloodshot street...

I was so hypnotized by the smile in your eyes today Flying free as a bird caught inside every word you say I want everyone to see... This is big time This is larger than life See the sparks fly When you're standing by my side Every step, every move, everythin...

I'm not afraid to show you who I am And I am not ashamed of my life Though I've walked alone down this cold and soulless road I've always felt you deep in my bones With every step, I rise and fall With everything to gain, I end up losing it all When the...

[Chorus:] And I'll go blind before I stop They're gonna have to come along and lock me up And I'll go blind before I stop 'Cause this boy Mama just- Wanna rock There's a two ton fireball burnin' through the headphones Cuttin' up my heart, makin' ashes of my s...

Have you a heart that beats? Have you a breath to breathe? And have you veins that bleed? Have you a brain that dreams? Is it so hard to see that we're all the same machine? Don't we all live and die under the same blue sky.... 

If it takes them so long So long to say yes Why don't they just say no We don't need anyone To be put to the test Why don't they let us be Livin' for the right to be Livin' for the right Livin' for the right to be Livin' for the right Livin' for the right to...

You see me now as large as life, but underneath you knew all too well The hollow shell, no spark of life Where once upon a time there beat a heart For you and you knew it from the start, and you went and blew it all away And you knew how, oh you knew best The...

And you said nothing at all Well I couldn't have said it better myself Tonight the conversation takes the fall Just love me like you love nobody else Little lady, I think there's something on your mind I've known you long enough to know The words are not that...

Another night sleepless I don't want to feel this Nothing can stop this pain Trying to get to A time I forget you Still tangled in yesterday It's so easy for you To give nothing for me Did you ever feel anything? I want you to cry over me Die over me Even fo...

Cry, baby, cry Cry, cry to heaven Say a prayer and light a candle Toll a bell Cry, baby, cry Cry, cry to heaven If that doesn't do it for you Go ahead, and cry like hell... Cry, baby, cry Cry, cry to heaven Storm the castle, stem the tide Rise above yourself...

Every night I grab some money and I go down to the bar I got my buddies and a beer, I got a dream, I need a car You got me begging on my knees, c'mon and throw the dog a bone A man he doesn't live by rock 'n roll and brew alone Baby baby, baby baby [Chorus:]...

So this is what it feels like To be the one left behind To give it all you've got, then find You've already changed your mind And this is what it sounds like Crying on the bed that we both made Waiting for a sign that you just can't give me Any kind of sign...

Bam,Bam, Bam my sweet You can sip it through a straw; you can throw it back neat Just don't be hesitatin', waitin' for it Cause in an ideal world they'll be comin' for you Could be tokin' on the bale, could be sniffin' our clues Better stake your fakin' reput...

Under your protective wing I walked into the night And a thousand angry demons up and took flight And I went running through the fields with the fever in my veins And the rain came crashing down and tried to clear my name Above my head, all in red, I could see...

I still dream of you wakin' up, openin' your eyes Like a little girl I once knew Walkin' to the window, lookin' down on the street You walk with me, and I walk with you Well I thought it all over, it doesn't make any sense Why did it fall apart, when it seeme...

I didn't take a suitcase I had to travel light I climbed out my bedroom window It was just about quarter past midnight Out on the highway I hitched a ride I was heading west I had to listen to some trucker Tell me all about the meaning of life Got a ride jus...

Everything is permitted, everything is allowed And all our gods we have outwitted, we are running with the crowd And all the clocks are showing zero, and all our parents must have fled And we just never had no heroes And all our enemies will soon be stone...

I know that I will never be politically correct And I don't give a damn about my lack of etiquette As far as I'm concerned the world could still be flat And if the thrill is gone, then it's time to take it back! If the thrill is gone, then it's time to take it...

I stare in the mirror My eyes refuse to blink Sympathy for me Hell I can't even think Send for the iceman, my temperature is startin' to rise I've heard it before, I know the truth from the lies Is it any wonder, heaven's racked with thunder and all of my dre...

I took one look and something snapped inside, I said I love your eyes You took my heart, you took my breath away, I felt my temperature rise You said you've never loved a man this way That it was heaven you were here to stay [Chorus:] And now you're just anot...

I was lost till you were found But I never knew how far down I was falling Before I reached the bottom I was cold and you were fire And I never knew how the pyre Could be burning On the edge of the ice field And now the chilly Californian wind Is blowing dow...

May God bless and keep you always May your wishes all come true May you always do for others And let others do for you May you build a ladder to the stars And climb on every rung May you stay forever young Forever young Forever young May you stay forever youn...

She thought she had the only key She thought you only opened up to her, well you see I don't know why you call it love She though she was the brightest light But someone else was lighting up your life, what I think I don't know why you call it love I'm not s...

Oh, a storm is threat'ning My very life today If I don't get some shelter Oh yeah, I'm gonna fade away War, children, it's just a shot away It's just a shot away War, children, it's just a shot away It's just a shot away Ooh, see the fire is sweepin'...

Sometimes if the night and the way it seems to cry and whisper terrifying secrets in your ear Sometimes its the day, and the sun has got no mercy lighting up burning everything that's in its way There were times I got to run Times I gotta hide Things I'v...

When the wind is howling through your window pane, it's not the only pain of the night You're burning up in your bed, you've got a fever of love, and there's not an antibody in sight Hey Jenny, Jenny, why are you crying? There's a beauty of a moon in the sky...

Heaven can wait, And a band of Angels wrapped up in my heart, Will take me through the lonely night, Through the cold of the day. And I know, I know, Heaven can wait, And all the gods come down here just to sing for me, And the melody's gonna make me fly, With...

The locusts are singing, the sun is red It's gotten so late somehow There's gonna be trouble, you know what they said We should have been home by now The thunder is rolling, the sky is black It's gotten so dark somehow There's gonna be danger, God I wish we w...

Whatever happened to Saturday Night When you dressed up sharp and you felt alright It don't seem the same since cosmic light Came into my life, I thought I was divine I used to drive around with a chick who'd go Listen to the music on the radio A saxaphone was...

And I would do anything for love I'd run right into hell and back I would do anything for love I'll never lie to you and that's a fact But I'll never forget the way you feel right now Oh no - no way - And I would do anything for love But I won't do that No I...

I'd never tell you one lie, I'd never let you down I'd never leave, I'd be the one who'd always be around Baby give me a chance I'd pull the sun out from the sky to light your darkest night I wouldn't let one drop of rain fall down into your life Put your hea...

From the minute I turned and laid my eyes on you, I had no eyes of my own I was blind to the world, you were too good to be true But you were something to see, so very young and alone And I still don't believe the way you turned on me Now where's the girl that...

I can't stand to see it no more The way you're living with a goddess but you treat her like a slave And you can't hold her back anymore She's like a dreamer in a dungeon or an angel in a cave [Chorus:] And I've been closer to you now than any other boy And yo...

If God could talk Would He tell you to come back to me? If God could talk Would He tell you it's alright, just leave And don't look back at all the memories The best of times, the mess you made of me Walk on, if you think it's gonna make you strong Why...

Boy : To say it's love would be too simple, too obvious It's more like a calling, a vocation Something I was put on this earth to do Now I'm shooting with the stars and I'm flying with the angels And my heartbeat is a symphony the closer I get to you I never...

Everything I've ever dreamed of Has begun to fade to black Oh, I don't know where I ever lost love Or where to go now to get it back I'm a desperate, lonely child and I don't have enough I've come to know the rules and laws and scriptures of love If it ain't...

I know you're going I know this is goodbye And I can't make you stay no matter, no matter how I try But ooh, if you're leaving Please grant this one request, and leave my heart with some happiness If this is the last kiss, let's make it last all night If this...

You say you're all alone, and after all the changes you've been through today You can use a little tenderness, right now OK, I've been alone, and I can understand the way you feel tonight Maybe together we can charge it all right now I can tell by the look i...

Look at them now What do they want? And what do they do now? Nothing at all! What do they know? What do they think? And who do they tell? Well, no one at all! Lives are truely meaningless And we are busy being blessed With that we can take and pocket No one...

If a love as strong as ours Couldn't make it all the way, Can anything make sense at all? If a love so deep and true Couldn't stand the test of time, Then mount everest could slide, And jeruselem could fall. Is nothing sacred anymore? Is forever just another...

And I never really sleep anymore And I always get those dangerous dreams And I never get a minute of peace And I gotta wonder what it means And I gotta wonder what it means Maybe it's nothing, and I'm under the weather Maybe it's just one of those bugs...

(Jim Steinman) [Boy:] There were nights when the wind was so cold That my body froze in bed if I just listened to it right outside the window [Girl:] There were days when the sun was so cruel That all the tears turned to dust and I just knew my eyes were dryi...

Heaven blesses those who wait, patience is a virtue, son Keep your toe on the line, keep your foot on the brake No sense jumpin' the gun But girl I'm tired of waitin', you know life's too short Lemme kiss ya 'til the night is done Ain't no doubt about it, you...

Another New York waltz at four a.m., in the canyons lost at night The city's just a jail for me, full of high rise prison walls And I'm riding through this darkness, 'cause I know there's life within And I'm searching through the shadows, just to find that lig...

You don't have to sneak in the door Just come on into the room I've been lying in our bed in the dark all alone And I've been waiting, I've been waiting for you There's been no reason to move It's been as still as a tomb I needed you oh so badly tonight But I...

When I find myself in times of trouble, Mother Mary comes to me, Speaking words of wisdom, let it be. And in my hour of darkness, She is standing right in front of me, Speaking words of wisdom, let it be. Let it be, let it be. Let it be, let it be, Whis...

It's all or nothing And nothing's all I ever get Ev'ry time I turn it on, I burn it up and burn it out It's always something There's always something going wrong That's the only guarantee, that's what this is all about It's a never ending attack Ev'rything's...

You better pray she took her morning medication Or you might have to pick her up at the police station Coz if there's trouble in this town, you know she's gonna find it She's like the devil in a short skirt but I don't mind it Everybody thinks I'm crazy, but t...
