Was alone then along came Mary, hair of gold and lips like cherries
Was amazed when she stole my thunder, filled my world with the ways of wonder

Come away come away with me, Far away where the eyes can't see
Come away to another time, Pardon me if you lose your mind

Who are you now? Who makes the rules?
Follow your heart and get back....

Hey what would you do, caught between Death - Death and a zoo?
What if your world was stuck in a cage would you feel rage boy?
Caught in a crossfire, stung by the cold wire
Would it feel lonely?

Hey what would you give so that your heart in freedom could live?
What if your love was stuck in a cage, hey don't you feel rage boy?
Caught in a landslide, where does the child hide?

Did I tell you I need your love a little more each day
Did I tell you I'm feeling old since you went away
Did I tell you my love was cold like the desert night
Did I tell you my heart was dry like the desert sky

Oh, will you love me again, won't you help out a friend
Will you love me again

For every man who has a dream, there's a light that's rarely seen 
Within a world where all is greed, all is lies 

For every child who lies awake and hopes that dawn will never break 
To be alone, to be afraid but never cry 

Where is the love, where is the fire we used to share, we used to live 
Where is the hope, where is the flame we used to feel, we used to give 

Give a little bit
Give a little bit of your love to me
Give a little bit
I'll give a little bit of my love to you
See the man with the lonely eyes
Take his hand, you'll be suprised

So i'll give a little bit

The sun goes up, the son goes down, and still my life is just spinning around
It builds me up, it drags me down, and keeps me looking for some solid ground

Hai hai, hai hai, hai hai
The race is on, the stakes are high, they want your body better dance or die
The game is up, the die is cast, this roller-coaster may well be your last

Hai hai, hai hai, hai hai

There's a house on the corner, lives a man who went to war
And it tries to give him shelter from the pain of what he saw
There's a child out the window painting faces in the snow
And they smile a sad reminder of a life he used to know

There's a house on the corner, lives a man with empty eyes
For his heart has been broken for he was sold a pack of lies

This morning when I woke up, I fixed myself a drink
I was feeling kind of broke up, my mind was on the blink
I couldn't see a future, can't seem to hold a job
I feel I'm just a loser, oh when's it gonna stop

I said Baby, say you'll always get to hold me
Say we'll never go hungry, never run out of money
You say we'll just have to hold on, maybe life is just a put on

In jeopardy, in jeopardy, I feel I'm about to cry
In jeopardy, in jeopardy, oh tell me the reason why
In jeopardy, in jeopardy, I'm watching the feeling
grow
In jeopardy, in jeopardy, oh tell me I want to know
In jeopardy, in jeopardy, the writing is on the wall
In jeopardy, in jeopardy, I can't seem to sleep at all
In jeopardy, in jeopardy, we utter a lonely cry

Please don't turn me away, please don't leave me alone
Oh I'm not asking for paradise, I just got to find me a home

I said land-ho, will I be sailing forever
Oh-oh I gotta find some shelter from the cold
Land-ho, will I be searching forever
Oh-oh I gotta find an anchor for my soul

I wish I was in London, walkin' in the rain
I wish I was in London, ooh I really miss the rain
Oh, just take me home again

I wish I was in England, I really miss the Queen
I wish I was in England, ooh I really miss the Queen
Oh, just take me home again

Love, love is a thousand times stronger than me, stronger than you
Well if you want to be a soldier go marching off to war
You think you're going to be a hero but we've heard it all before, boy

Love, love is a thousand times dearer than me, dearer than you
Well if you want to be a leader, Then go and lead the way
You're never going to give us freedom no matter what you say, boy
I said it'd better come soon...

Time is always on the run
We've only just begun
Lovers in the wind

Life is all we have to share
You know we must take care
Lovers in the wind

Tell me what you like, I'll print it all
You need laughs, 'cause you don't need misery
Just tell me what you need, I'll tell it all
Screw the facts, I can give you fantasy

My magazine, I'm talking about my magazine

Just tell me what you want, I print it all

And so we sail towards the dawn, joining those who gently mourn for you
It's only because of you
Friends may come and friends may go, the only friend I need to know is you
It's only because of you
Mighty castles, lonely kings, hear the ragged children sing it's you
It's only because of you
He who smiles at lofty schemes, stems the tide of broken dreams is you
It's only because of you

Who's to say, who's to know, where the ship is going to blow 
Taking time beneath the trees, State of mind, state of ease 

Easy come, easy go, what a life, what a show, 
Caught in old familiar ways, has our love gone astray?... 
Gone away?...gone away?... 

Open the door ... Open the door 

Why did you leave me all alone
Why didn't you tell me you were going home
Everything changes now you're gone
Making me wonder how to carry on

Over and over you gave to me
I wish I had told you what you meant to me
Why does it always have to end

Put it in the right place, oh get into the right space
Move it at the right pace, don't you turn into a head case
Oh you drive me crazy

Don't say that you'll never be lonely, baby
Don't say that you'll never take chances, lady
Fee, fi, fo fum everyone wants it baby
Be high, have fun, everyone needs it baby

Say goodbye to the old way, say hello to a new day
Well if you want to linger, a trail a finger
It'll only leave you wondering what the future might have been

Say goodbye to the old scene, say hello to a new dream
You say you want your freedom, but is it freedom
When you leave it all behind you but your mind just can't let go?-oh no 

Well there's crying in the kitchen
And there's fighting in the street
And there's cocaine in the schoolyard
Yet my heart, don't miss a beat
Can't let go, oh I can't let go

And the preacher's on the telly
And he's handing me the phone

Walk around the garden, choking at the weeds
Won't you come and help me try and sow some seeds
All the trees are weeping, branches hanging low
Seems as if they know that they haven't long to go

All the world's a funfair, hide behind your mask
Say that you're enjoying it if anybody asks
Don't believe in sinners, don't believe in sin

When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful,
a miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical.
And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily,
joyfully, playfully watching me.
But then they send me away to teach me how to be sensible,
logical, responsible, practical.
And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable,
clinical, intellectual, cynical.

The more I look, more I see
The more that life asks of me
The more it hurts, the more I feel
The more it takes time to heal

For easy times they come and they go
Come and they go so quickly
And peace of mind is so hard to know

Who believes in magic, who's afraid of the wolf
Who believes it's tragic living life by the book
I see daylight coming, in the eastern sky
Oh my love awaken, oh my love don't die
Who's afraid of madness, who's afraid of the moon
Who's afraid of sadness, afraid of being alone
I can feel it coming in the eastern sky
Oh my love don't hurt me, oh my love don't die

Alright, you make me love you
It's alright, you make me love you
I said alright, you make me love you
It's alright, you make me love you
When the winter wind in a-blowing'
Well you never know where it's goin'
For the skies are dark and the clouds are rollin' in
You can feel your heart is getting older
