Coming Around Again

I've been sitting in the darkness
But the sunlight’s creeping in
Now the ice is slowly melting
In my soul and in my skin
All the good times my friend
Are coming around again
Oh yeah

I've been thinking reminiscing
Of better nights and better days
Hiding in a refuge
Of memories I've made
I've got a feeling within,within
It’s coming around again


[It's coming around again]
We've been so long waiting
For the all time high
You've got a damn good reason
To put your troubles aside
And all your winter sorrows hang 'em out to dry
Throw it away
Gotta throw it away
All the colorful days my friend
Are coming around again

That’s right
Yeah yeah Mmm

I've got someone waiting for me
It's been so long since we met
And I may not be your salvation but I’ll offer nonetheless
And if like me u wanna take that chance
It's coming around again
Ooh yeah



Yeah yeah Mmm

I can feel a change of fortune
No more riding on my love
Feel the weight is off my shoulders
As my feet become unstuck
And all the good times on which we do depend
Oh it’s coming around again
 

Seventeen

Seventeen, I was living life
Chasing dreams and my hopes were high
Trying to get around my fear of
When and where do I go from here

I asked somebody close to me
Who could see a lot further than a boy could see
Oh, oh, oh and he said...

Oh my, oh my, oh my these days are flying by
I still feel seventeen inside, not one day over
Don't let the trials of life, change who you are tonight
Stay seventeen each time you get one year older

I said you're at that time of life when your heart is strong
Your future's bright, you can do no wrong
And don't you let those feelings out of sight
Keep a hold of them as the years go rolling by

These words have always stuck with me
But now I'm only getting what it all appears to mean
Oh, oh, oh and he said...

Oh my, oh my, oh my these days are flying by
I still feel seventeen inside, not one day over
Don't let the trials of life, change who you are tonight
Stay seventeen each time you get one year older

He said...my years have come and gone, in oh such little time
And I hope you live your life the way that I lived mine
Stay young at heart, stay young in mind

So I said...

Oh my, oh my, oh my these days are flying by
I'm still seventeen inside, not one day over
I won't let the trials of life, change who I am tonight
Stay seventeen each time you get one year older

One year older, one year older....oh my oh my oh my oh my

So stay seventeen each time you get one year older

 
Sunshine (Love Like That)

It's one of those times
When you know what to say
Should have said it a little more
But life gets in the Way
And that can be the fifference
Between a woman and a man
When one shows affection
And the other does the best he can
I just know, gotta get, from my heart to my head
Got the words on my breath right now.


(Like a shadow you are my sunshine)
You make me smile when the tide is running in high
Take all the weight that troubles my mind
(Like fire under the night sky)
You make me strong through the times both happy and sad
And everybody is looking for a love like that
Love like that, love like that

(Lay beside me, guide me home)
Everybody's searching
Trying so hard to find
Some kind of Angel
Who can share their whole lives
As we turn all the corners
Don't want to lose you on the way
So, i'll turn back the pages
I gotta say this girl before its too late
I just know
Gotta get from my heart to my head
Got the words on my breath right now


A love like that
Love like that
(Lay beside me, guide me home)
I just know
Gotta get from my heart to my head
Got these words on my breath right now
A love like that
A love like that

 
Go To Sleep

The light is fading, its the end of the day
She's lying awake
Wondering if tomorrow's going to be her friend
She's too young to understand
But he knows there's something wrong
Now Mama has gone
And daddy is doing all he can to recompense
And out of these lonely days
She's trying to make the most
This unfamiliar place
She's trying to make it home
She's working hard to get the kind of love her mama gave, oh


(Got to sleep my little baby)
Go to sleep my little baby
(Go to sleep my little baby)
Go to sleep my little baby
Your mama's gone away and your daddy's gonna stay

Don't leave, Nobody but the babe
She takes the pressure and hides it away
Still wakes everyday
And sets the table for an extra place
This ain't what she chose
This is what she's got
Hope that when she grows old
No one needs to pay the cost
She's working hard to be the kind of girl her mama was, oh

Go to sleep
Go to sleep
Your daddy's going to stay
You're daddy's going to stay

 
Ain't True To Yourself

You ain't true to yourself
Its there in your eyes everytime you deny that you could need some help
You think i'm a fool, you pretend all is cool
And you do it all so well
I don't know you at all
You ain't true to yourself Its like you say you don't smoke
Think i don't hear you choke and its damaging your health
You give what you want, but you don't give it all
Cos you're saving it for someone else
I can see you heading for a fall


Well, its your life
Do what you like
Lord knows, i couldn't do any better
(This is more than a warning, let the truth do the talking)
And its alright
I've served my time
And i've gotta get out
You know its now or never
and though i wish you well
You ain't true to yourself, You know that you ain't
Cause you change everyday with the cards that you're dealt
You can't stay the same for too long
Feel its wrong, you're unhappy i can tell
I see you heading for a fall (alright)


I'm gonna be true to myself
I'm gonna be true to myself
(Say you don't smoke, think i don't hear you choke, just be true to yourself, think i'm a fool, you pretend all is cool, just be true to yourself)

 
Don't Wanna Be That Man

I know just how you feel cos i've been there before
You thought you found something that was for real that was for sure
You're taking it so bad, now you're counting for the cost
Not looking out for what you have, just what you've gone and lost
This is not like you, this is not the friend i'm used to
So we're going to get you through, oh


Find the life
Find the life
That you used to know
Let your memories touch your soul
All of your deepest hopes, oh
Shine the light
Shine the light
That you used to hold

Though you say you're just the same
Well you know it ain't so
Oh deny it all you can
But you don't want to be that man
Nobody's to blame
Just like when leaves fall
Scattered dry and
Left to wonder the reason for it all
Seasons they do change
and as they change we grow
In time we all get older wiser
Learning as we go
Where's the friend i knew
The one i used to turn to
Here's what you gotta do, oh


(That man) who left his hopes and dreams
Somewhere in the past
(That man) who's letting his life go through an empty glass
(That man) Just look at what you've got
Don't wish for what you had
Cos you're life could be so good
I just wish you'd live it like you should, so


You don't wanna be that man
You don't wanna be that man

 
Angel (My Life Began With You)

Back in the day before i met you
It was like the same old song
Spinning around with no direction
Lost a dream along the way somewhere
Just making do with second best
Secret yearning unfulfilled
But it all came alive again
The day you touched my soul
High as an eagle
I can see clearly now, my


Life has begun with you
I'm leaving all of my cares behind
Now i know that you are mine
My one and only angel
Lost in your beauty
Where my dreams came true
Baby, my life has begun with you

It could easy take a lifetime
To find the one you're looking for, oh yeah
I'm gonna cherish every moment
Now that love has come around
Fire, burning, on and on
Cos in my eyes, you're more than beautiful
And its to your flame i'm drawn
You take me higher
I see tomorrow now, my


Life has begun with you
I'm leaving all my cares behind
Now i know that you're mine
My one and only angel
Lost in your beauty
Where my dreams came true
Baby my life has begun with you
Now, i know where my heart belongs
I'm never looking back, no no no
Nothing compares to the joy that you bring
I see the beauty outside and the angel inside oh oh

 
Fool For You

Stood here in the rain
I see her looking over
I got so much to say
I wish that i could hold her
Memories come flooding back now
Reminis when we kiss
I can taste her lips now
Here's my chance
To put things right now
Take it slow, let her know
Exactly what you're feeling
I've let go my foolish pride, oh yeah
I'm gonna share those tears
That fall inside, oh yeah


I'm giving you all that i am
Take it all
Take it all
I threw away the love that we had
Was such a fool to let you go
I won't relax til i get her back in my arms
Cos i am still the fool, but for you

Sat down and we're talking
I think we're getting closer, oh yeah
Laughing and we're joking
Maybe this ain't over, oh no
Memories come flooding back now
Table for two, Deja vu
Will she stay or will she go now
Take it slow, let her know
Exactly what you're feeling
Girl, i'm done with all those lies
I've turned my life around
And you're the reason why, oh yeah


I won't let you down again, oh no
I didn't mean to do you wrong
Time has showed me
You're the one

My Soul Pleads For You

Oh yeh yeh, oh oh, hey

There’s a place I’ve never been
A place I long to be
Will I reach? I just don’t know
Still I hope one day I’ll go, hey

My wish just never seems to come, yeh
I know for certain you’re the one, yeh
So close I get, still no cigar
Carrying my wounded heart, yeh

I can’t stop the river from running, I can’t, I can’t
I can’t stop the rain from falling down on me, oh no no
I know I’m not what you want
I’m hoping in time you’ll see how
My soul pleads for you

Not every time you meet someone and
You both just click in a minute
Baby it’s the eye contact, smile like that
Click click and you’re rolling
Can’t stop calling you, I don’t know what to do
Baby you’re making me break down all of my rules, yeh

I can’t stop the river from running, (I can’t stop the river from running)
I can’t stop the rain from falling down on me, oh no no
I know I’m not what you want
I’m hoping in time you’ll see how
My soul pleads for you, yeh, yeh, yeh

Now I can believe you’ve put a spell on me
Oh it’s the way it seems, I can’t keep you out my dreams
Oh I get chills baby, when I can’t talk to you
I’m in pain and I hope you feel the way I do

I can’t stop the river from running, (I can’t stop the river from running)
I can’t stop the rain from falling down on me, oh no no
I know I’m not what you want
I’m hoping in time you’ll see how
My soul pleads for you, yeh, yeh, yeh

I know for certain you’re the one baby
So close, and no cigar
I carry this, my wounded heart
So close but yet so far

Chorus until fade

That's The Way It Goes

Some days i don't know how i got here
It been a journey through the dark
I lived a lie that had no answers
The truth was always in my heart
I spin a coin to make decisions
And still i always got it wrong
Tried to avoid head on collision
The chance was there but now its gone
So I say


OOh thats the way it goes
I live to fight another day
And i, ooh
Thats the way it goes

Life is a game we have to play
Play, play on, play on, play on, play on
Its like a book that has no ending
Its like a story never told
Its like a night when you're on fire
Why does the morning feel so cold
Feels like i'm trapped inside a circle
And though i plan my great escape
Its like i'm back where i started
The only thing i have is faith


Feels like i'm trapped inside a circle
And though i plan my great escape
Looks like i'm back where i started
The only thing i have is faith
 

 
Take Your Time

I know exactly what i'm talking about
Cos i've been there
I've been scared
So many dreams i've been in & then out
Turned dreams into nightmares
I realised my wants criticised my needs
(I didn't make enough)

I couldn't figure out my wrongs and
I found it hard to breathe
Have a right to cry (sometimes)
When i'm under the weather
Feels like my world is comin' down
And my job could be better
Thats yesterdays news
Maybe tomorrow this is what we can do


Sieze the day
Change your life
Find all of your limits in the sky
Take a moment
Clear your night
Believe that your angels never lie
Change is good, just keep it moving

Uncover new colours that are kind
Different ways, brand new heights
Don't worry, just take your time
And you'll be fine
Too many people get frightened of lightning
(Always strikes them in the same place twice)
Never seeking true guidance it may be
They need a little direction in life
Its alright to cry (sometimes)
When you're under the weather
Feels like your world is coming down
And your job could be better
Yeah, and thats todays news
You see tomorrow this is what we can do


You don't have to be fed up each & every day of your life
(stop complaining, stop all the hating, open your eyes)
And the world will be better if you believe and you try
(Stop complaining about what you can't get)
You won't know til you try

Grace

(Grace, grace)
Reaching out, looking for some way to escape the crowd
You whispered words that I’ve been searching for
Somehow you answered my call
Reaching out I feel I’m rising up


You give me (grace)
In a world that doesn’t sleep at all
You give me (grace)
It’s a place I’ve never been before
You give me (grace)
And in all of the confusion you’re the peace in my soul
That’s why I will never really be alone

Suddenly, I’m up on the surface now where I can see
And picture the person who I need to be
And I know, yes I know I can make it
See me now, I’m slowly rising up



Well yeah, these are difficult times
These are difficult days
But I know we can face it
Ours are difficult lives
In a difficult place
Oh you give me grace to say when I got it wrong
The grace and the will to carry on
Reaching out I feel I’m rising up

Lay Your Hands



Do what you do
What you say
What you feelin
Do what you do
With your hands
Do the heeling

Sometimes life can be a burden
Trying to stay 1 step ahead
Feel the world upon my shoulder each time
Standing out upon the edge
My hopes have all deserted me
Like they’re washed away in the sand
And it’s hurting my pride
Trying to survive
But I know that I stand a chance
When you lay your hands

Do what you do
What you say
What you feeling (Oh yeah)
Do what you do
With your hands
Do the heeling

‘Cos it’s the only thing that I have that still makes sense

Oh baby when I’m calling out
Give me love and affection
Keep telling me,
Showing me the way
Oh if you see me falling down
Lift me up from the shadows
Will you take me away to a better place
And when I’m in my darkest hour,
Be by my side
And turn the tide
And let the suffering fade
When life is getting me down, getting me down
And close to defeat
Come and lay your hands on me


Do what you do
What you say
What you feeling
Do what you do
With your hands
Do the heeling


See this road is getting longer now
And I’m too far away from home
Still I gotta keep on moving on
But I can’t do it on my own


Baby keep my head above water
Help mem upon my life
Cos the game is getting harder
The strain is getting stronger
And I can only face the fight
When you lay your hands

Do what you do
What you say
What you feeling (Oh yeah)
Do what you do
With your hands
Do the heeling

‘Cos it’s the only thing that I have that still makes sense

Oh baby when I’m calling out
Give me love and affection
Keep telling me,
Showing me the way
Oh if you see me falling down
Lift me up from the shadows
Will you take me away to a better place
And when I’m in my darkest hour,
Be by my side
And turn the tide
And let the suffering fade
When life is getting me down, getting me down
And close to defeat
Come and lay your hands on me

Do what you do
(until I’m healed again)
Do what you do
(rediscovered my strengths)
Do what you do
(those bitter blues are gone)
Do what you do

Oh gone..

No pain, no strife
I’m falling
Put your hands up

Oh baby when I’m calling out
Give me love and affection
Keep telling me,
Showing me the way
Oh if you see me falling down
Lift me up from the shadows
Will you take me away to a better place
And when I’m in my darkest hour,
Be by my side
And turn the tide
And let the suffering fade
When life is getting me down, getting me down
And close to defeat
Come and lay your hands on me

Do what you do
What you say
What you feeling
Do what you do
With your hands
Do the heeling (lay your hands on me)

Do what you do
What you say
What you feeling
Do what you do
With your hands
Do the heeling (can you hear what you do what you do)

Do what you do
What you say
What you feeling (with your hands feel my pain)
Do what you do
With your hands
Do the heeling




No Worries


I just know your life’s gonna change
Gonna get a little better
Even on the darkest day
I just know your life’s gonna change
Gonna get a little further
Right until the feelings change

So, this is how it goes?
Think you’ve come this far with nothing to show
That ain’t so, no
You don’t see where you are
And if you don’t look back you know you’ll never know

Cause you think that you’ve been living, just treading water
And waiting in the wings for the show to begin
But I always see you searching
As you try that bit harder
Getting closer, oh yeah, to the life you’re imagining

(I just know your life’s gonna change)
Maybe not today, maybe not today
Some day soon you’ll be all right
(I just know your life’s gonna change)
Don’t turn the other way, turn the other way
Feel lucks on your side
(Just wanna live)
No worries, no worries
(Don’t wanna die)
No worries, no worries
(Fight thought the lows)
Say it for me, say it for me
(And take all the highs)
We all need somebody
(Yeah we can sink)
No worries, no worries
(Or can you swim)
No worries, no worries
(Or walk on out)
Say it for me, say it for me,
(Or jump right in)
We all need somebody

So, baby keep drifting on
Your endeavours ain’t just selfless wasted time
Seek and find, yeah yeah
You’re not that far from what you’ve hoped and wished for all along

Cause you think that you’ve been living, just treading water
And waiting in the wings for the show to begin
But I always see you searching
As you try that bit harder
Getting closer, oh yeah, to the life you’re imagining

(I just know your life’s gonna change)
Maybe not today, maybe not today
Some day soon you’ll be all right
(I just know your life’s gonna change)
Don’t turn the other way, turn the other way
Feel lucks on your side
(Just wanna live)
No worries, no worries
(Don’t wanna die)
No worries, no worries
(Fight thought the lows)
Say it for me, say it for me
(And take all the highs)
We all need somebody
(Yeah we can sink)
No worries, no worries
(Or can you swim)
No worries, no worries
(Or walk on out)
Say it for me, say it for me,
(Or jump right in)
We all need somebody

I just know your life’s gonna change
Say it for me, say it for me
We all need somebody




After All This Time



After all, the broken storms
that were thrown, for no good reason
inside, she's loving him still
after all this time
And though her heart, begs the stars
No sign of healing, It's All right
She's loving him still, after all this time.

ohh yeahh

Trying to push the past away
still waiting for the lights to change
try, try for the sake of it
learning to barely feel the pain

And though it's really hurting
she aint breaking, breaking, breaking
coz she's loving him still, after all this time

now he knows his weakness? shows
selfish soul, never changing
that's fine, because she's loving him still
after all this time

and to the outside eye
you see you found a different guy
and it all seems perfect, and that's how she wants it
coz she's loving him still, after all this time.

Trying to push the past away
still waiting for the lights to change
try, try for the sake of it
learning to barely feel the pain

And though it's really hurting
she aint breaking, breaking, breaking
coz she's loving him still, after all this time

after all this time....
after all, after all, after all this time

bones have to grow, and age it shows
though we try and hide it
inside, she's loving him still
after all this time
And behind his tired eyes, she sees the boy with his arms wide

who made her feel like an angel
ohh thats why she's loving him still
for the rest of her life, she's loving him still
for the last of many
she's loving him still
after all this time

Time Of  Your Life



You say, you've got all you'd ever want
Then how come you're
Demanding everything
A little more from everyone
You're always
Turning all my rights to wrongs
With the bitter words you're whispering
I see we've come undone, well

There's something wrong about it
Your life's too over crowded
I'm tired of giving it all
And taking the fall, I Guess

Chorus:
I'm wasting your time, baby
If something within you
Can't be satisfied
Then Get up, Get out, Give In, oh if
I'm cramping your style, lately
If something is greener on the other side
Then go on, and have
The time of your life

Shameful, always treated me the same
Twisting every little circumstance
In to your gain
Resentful, gone too far to give a damn
All those things that did belong to me
Keep 'em like you planned, well

There's no two ways about it
My life's too short for shouting
I'm tired of giving it all
And taking the fall, I guess

Chorus

Ain't no reason in me holding you down
So move on baby, and someone else
proud, because...

Chorus

The time of your life
The time of your life
The time of your life
The time of your life

There's no two ways about it
My life's too short for shouting
I'm tired of giving it all
And taking the fall, I guess




Unjustified



Good love, left me feeling kinda bad,
Riled up, after all the fun we had,
Put off, by your dirty meddlin'
Ain't that long since,
I was your hootchie cootchie man,

But you're getting off spreading dirty lies,
Ya' broke promise don't come as no surprise,
No, no, that ain't gonna bother me,
I ain't making a scene,

Chorus
So have it your way,
But you'll pay the price,
You had ya chances,
Still got no answers,
No leaving with your head held high,
I ain't gonna run,
I ain't gonna fight,
So don't go making business,
When you ain't got no witness,
I guess you gotta let love lie,
Unjustified,

So sad, turning on me like you did,
Cold cash, got you like a sedative,
Lifestyle, live the life of luxury,
While somehow, I'm sleeping with the enemy,

You'll get none of that money making lies,
You can't bare to do better thinking twice,
If you're taking me on, you're doing it all wrong yeah,
And where d'ya get that attitude from?

Chorus

I thought that I was seeing something else,
Something sweeter, nothing like the rest,
But you were trouble dressed as tenderness,
Cos this deception that you played on me,
Has left you where you didn't wanna be,
But don't come knockin' here for sympathy,

Chorus

Yours were the words that I won't forget,
Mine are the ones that I won't regret,
Made me feel good and I told you that,
But you twist the knife when I turned my back,
You took a chance and you lost control,
Got little heart and you got no soul,
Guess all of these things, gotta let them lie,
Unjustified




Free



what a way to wake up
just to find you there and
touch you in the morning
you turn your head and look up
there's no need to catch me
baby, I'm not falling
could have guessed after all that
Id be standing tall
you make me feel

chorus:
free
when you're near me
yeah I'm free
all the time
I just need you to hear me
it's only you that makes me free
I'm not used to being loved, not me

open up the window
just as the sun comes over the horizon
what a perfect moment
trying to catch my breath
I find it so surprising
who'd have guessed after all that
I'd be standing tall
you make me feel

chorus

seem to exist with these
chains around me
I thought that I was free
I never knew that's not
an easy thing to be
it's just the way that
your love surrounds me
who'd have guessed after all that
I'd be standing tall
you make me feel
free, when you're near me

who'd have guessed after all that
I'd be standing tall
you make me feel

chorus

not me




Ashamed



Is there something wrong tonight, or am I being paranoid,
Guess I might have had a little too much to drink.
I wonder who she's talking too, cos I'm about to act the fool,
I smell something cooking and I don't know what to think.

Bridge
What's going on, I don't know whose right or wrong, Yeah
Tell me babe, it looks like you've been crying
What did he say before he walked away
Maybe I was outta line thinking you were flirting with another guy…

Chorus
I realise that we all can make mistakes
And I'll do whatever it takes babe
(You know I'd do anything for you)
I don't know if I could stand the pain
If you'd taken your love away babe
If you asked me now I guess I feel Ashamed

Ashamed, Ashamed, Ashamed

I didn't mean to cause a fight, cross my heart and hope to die
I guess I'm terrified of the thought of losing you
You say he's just a friend, but I don't think it's true
Once upon a time it would never have crossed my mind

Bridge

Chorus

Ashamed, Ashamed, Ashamed (repeat)

Chorus (repeat)




Only Love



the sun is shining through
oh this perfect morning
and I know that I am blessed
but I'm guilty nonetheless
so many people lost
so many people hurting
and I wish I had a way
to make everything okay

I don't know why
how we got here
but i reach inside
and the answer clear

chorus:
only love can heal the pain
it can right the wrong
can take the blame
only love can realize
nothin' more we need
cause it's all inside
so we fight, fight, fight
and we won't let go and we reach up high
til everybody knows
only love can understand
only love can bring us together again

and it seems since time began
that people just been fightin'
and it ain't just black or white
and it ain't just wrong or right
and I get so overwhelmed
so disconnected
til you reach out to me
you know just what I need

as long as I
can hold you near
it's gonna be alright
won't have no fear

chorus

I pray for peace to shine on you and me
I pray for strenght, hope and faith
for love to lead the way

and we won't run run
and we'll rise above
only love, love, love

and we'll fight, fight, fight
for the light, light, light
and we won't stop, no

chorus




All I Want

could possibly be,
well I'm already there girl
guess how long it took
to set all my demons free
well I'm already there girl

I got my wake up call
when you shut that door
and it all becameclear to me

chorus:

Star



All of the girls and the boys at the party
And I'm the only one alone
So I crossed the dance floor
Heading for the back door
Ready to make my way home
But wait a minute what's this I see
J-lo glow and legs to spare
Something you got put it on me
Guess I ain't going anywhere

Chorus
I don't know what it is
But it's shining like a star
So come on over
And show me who you are
A little closer I can't touch it for afar
Just you and me girl
Dirty dancing in the dark
And Oh

Well we could talk a little
Laugh a while and maybe
Talk a little more
But let's sidestep the usual bullshit
Make are way onto the floor

Baby there's something bright about you
Your eyes, your smile, your style of dress
You make me feel like I'm a sinner
And now I'm ready to confess

Chorus

And oh if you touch your body
Girl I'll let you put it on me
I can make you feel so good, so good

And oh if you touch your body
Girl I'll let you put it on me
And I really wish you would, you would

So everybody, everybody
Nice and slow now
With the flow now

(repeat x 3)

So everybody, everybody
Nice and slow now

Chorus

Uh Oh




Sanctuary



Can't keep a flower underground
Can't keep the sun from shining down
And I can't make you stay
You feel your world is undefined
You feel that what you need is time
Open up your wings and find your way

And I won't try to hold you back
And I hope you already know that

Chorus
I'll be your sanctuary
Be the last one left here standing
If you're feelin all alone
When the world feels so temporary
And you think there's such a long
Long way to go
You're all ready home
You're home

You might be somewhere flyin free
The same sky is watching over me
Close your eyes and look around
What ever ocean that you cross
Thought you many drift you're never lost
And I will be your solid ground

Cause I know that inside my heart
Gonna get back to where we started

Chorus

You're already here in my arms
The way that you are tonight
Just give me till mornin' comes
(It's gonna be all right – (repeat)

I'll...(Sanctuary)
I'll...I
(Repeat)

Chorus (Repeat to fade)

Rain

When the water gets too deep
And your spirit gets cold
Don`t you kn ow everybody`s got that something
The journey`s getting sweeter and getting to the end
And i know cos` I`m starting to believe it

I`m walking this rocky road not knowing where it`s leading
I find then the courage to overcome my fears


So let the rain fall down
And wash away your sorrows
Let the sun come out
And dry your away your tears
Just be moving on,moving on
It doesn`t matter where you`re going
Sometime you just gotta let it out
And let the rain fall down


So if you think there`s no way to turn it around
Don`t you know that you`re the reason
Walking through this wonderland
Not knowing where it`s leading
(Find then)Find the courage to overcome your fears


So let the rain fall down
And wash away your sorrows
Let the sun come out
And dry your away your tears
Just be moving on,moving on
It doesn`t matter where you`re going
Sometime you just gotta let it out
And let the rain fall down


I`ve been walkin g down this rocky road
Million miles away from home
And i`m starting to erase all of my fears



So let the rain fall down
And wash away your sorrows
Let the sun come out
And dry your away your tears
Just be moving on,moving on
It doesn`t matter where you`re going
Sometime you just gotta let it out
And let the rain fall down
 

Give A Man Hope



I was damned from the day I was born
No wake up call, I was locked into falling apart
And set to waste it all I was out of control
Cold and I think it showed
And it? getting hard to play the part but it’s all that I know

And it’s getting so complicated
Without any good intentions
Something has to change
So complicated
So point me in the right direction
I guess what am trying to say is…

If you give a man hope
You know something to believe in
You get more if you give a little sometime
You get more if you give a little sometime
Forget about gold, oh no
You know you don’t need it, you don’t even need it
Its clear to see you’ve gotta give a man hope

You know, you know,
You’ve gotta give a man hope

Nowhere to stay no place called home
What happened here when you step into the unknown?
Outside my comfort zone ah yeah am not the man you use to know
Am in control gonna kick back relax

And it’s getting so complicated
Without any good intentions
Something has to change
So complicated
So point me in the right direction
I guess what am trying to say is…

If you give a man hope
You know something to believe in
You get more if you give a little sometime
You get more if you give a little sometime
Forget about gold, oh no
You know you don’t need it, you don’t even need it
It’s clear to see

Things will never be the same again
Give a man a little trust and faith
A ray of light I can see day break ahead
A little confidence is all it takes and whatever happens from today
They see the good in you the light comes through

Guess all am trying to say is

If you give a man hope
You know something to believe in
You get more if you give a little sometime
You get more if you give a little sometime
Forget about gold, oh no
You know you don’t need it, you don’t even need it
It’s clear to see

If you give a man hope
You know something to believe in
You get more if you give a little sometime
You get more if you give a little sometime
Forget about gold, oh no
You know you don’t need it, you don’t even need it
Its clear to see you gotta give a man hope

You know, you know you gotta give a man hope




I Ain't You



Some days when I was young and I was dressed up as I do
Not looking like the rest but, what I felt as cool
They said that I was the one who was playing a fool for attention
I’d stand out the way that I do

They use to pick and tease not take me seriously
But see I did not care cos we were only kids
So back then they did laugh and make fun out of me
But developing my style, looking right as I did.

They say that I don’t eat
And that I don’t get no sleep
They say that I ain’t cool and that I look like a freak
I said I ain’t you and you are not me
We are who we are let us be

Here are reunion and I meet them same old kids
Don’t recognise their kids but do remember me
So back then they did laugh and make fun out of me
But developing my style looking right as I did.

They say that I don’t eat
And that I don’t get no sleep
They say that I ain’t cool and that I look like a freak
I said I ain’t you and you are not me
They say that I don’t know and that my mind is too weak
They say my body’s slow and say I ain’t got no beat
I said I ain’t you and you are not me
We are who we are let us be


So my story to you is stand up and be proud
If you’re quiet then that’s cool
If your not shout it loud

They say that I don’t eat
And that I don’t get no sleep
(It’s all about foolish kids)
They say that I ain’t cool and that I look like a freak
They say that I don’t know and that my mind is too weak
They say my body’s slow and say I ain’t got no beat
I said I ain’t you and you are not me
We are who we are let us be
I said I ain’t you and you are not me
We are who we are let us be

They say that I don’t eat
And that I don’t get no sleep
(It’s all about foolish kids)
They say that I ain’t cool and that I look like a freak
They say that I don’t know and that my mind is too weak
They say my body’s slow and say I ain’t got no beat
I said I ain’t you and you are not me
We are who we are let us be
I said I ain’t you and you are not me
We are who we are let us be

What a foolish thing to say




No Pressure On You



So here I am
And I'm ready to
Talk all through the
Night if you want to
We'll do whatever you wanna do
See, I'll make you understand
I won't be the man to let you down
Coz baby I'll be around, yeah

And girl I know that
You've been hurt before
Let me reassure you
There's only good intentions
If you'll relax and let
Your feelings flow
Soon you'll know

Chorus:

Girl there ain't no pressure
We'll do it the way you like to
Just remember
I will always be here for you
Girl whenever
Rain or sunny weather
Just remember
That there ain't no pressure on you

And there you are
Right in front of me
My soul sister and my queen
Ain't nobody else compares
The way you look
And the things you say
Amazes me in each and every way
And I'm reminded every day

Coz girl I know that
You've been hurt before
You can't take no more
Of all the false pretences
So let me take this
Chance to ease your mind
We can take our time

Chorus:

Pressure...
Like to...
Remember...
I will always be here for you
Girl whenever
Rain or sunny weather
Just remember
That there aint no pressure on you

And girl I know that
You've been hurt before

Simon Says

Whatcha know about Simon
When I’m winding
On the dance floor
With a girl
Bumping and grinding
Still I’m undecided
Which girl
I’m gonna jump in
X5 with
Fly back to my crib

Yeah I made a little green
Out of blue
No guns
I was still a 16 with ya crew
Make ‘em lean back
Like a phat Joe track
Black throwback
Clean shave
Called me Co-shack
Where the flows at
Cos this beat
Kicks harder
Then Jimmy Floyd
With The Steel-Toe-Caps
So clap to the rhythm like so
Let me see you go low
Bounce like a pogo

Yo this is what I came to do
See I came from the ghetto
Just the same as you
But I paid my dues
And I made it through
Now I’m on the TV
And in your daily news


Simon says stop
Simon says go
Simon says
Everybody take it to the floor
Simon says shake and you gotta shake it
And keep winding, grinding

Simon says stop
Simon says go
Simon says
Everybody take it to the floor
Simon says shake and you gotta shake it
And keep winding, grinding

Simon says touch your toes
Then we all know Simon says go
Simon stays cold
Neck-a-wrist froze
See the wrist going
And flip to like Sisco
Simons gonna make it
Your daughters disco
Simons on the radio
Don’t rap with this girl
Keep ya trap closed
Peep the new close
projects
Just to run with me
Is a no go
(Oh-No)

Yes the number one
Chart topper
Are stop bossing me
Around the dance papa
Yeah blacker
I’ve got the game wrapped tightly
Like the laces on my air max nikey
Clothes pricy
Flow icely
Sexy like pepper so spicy
No wifey
I’m still young free and single
And I’m looking mingle with you (you)


Simon says stop
Simon says go

Everybody take it to the floor
Simon says shake and you gotta shake it
And keep winding, grinding

Simon says stop
Simon says go
Simon says
Everybody take it to the floor
Simon says shake and you gotta shake it
And keep winding, grinding

Yes
I made my momma so proud
Rose from the concrete
Shone through the crowds
Now I jump out of my black limousine
They don’t see the same colour
All they see is the green
I’ve seen more cream then
You’ve seen in your dreams
If you’re seeing what I’m seeing
Then you’ll see what I mean
I’m keen to be seen
Out with the hot beings
And the leaning of a hot set of wheels
And the gleam

Simon says stop
Simon says go
Simon says
Everybody take it to the floor
Simon says shake and you gotta shake it
And keep winding, grinding
