Waiting For The Rain-Roxette

Lyrics With Thanks From-https://www.azlyrics.com
.
I'm waiting for the rain
I'm waiting for you
I'm waiting for the rain
To clean my soul
I'm waiting for the rain
Nothing's gonna be better
Without you

The day you left me
The day you came
I'll never forget you
Feel you in my pain
The time stood still
The time was flying
I wonder why
I'm not dying

I'm waiting for the sun
I'm waiting for a new day
I'm waiting for the night
To close my eyes
I'm waiting for the dark
Oh it's gonna be harder
Without you

The way we danced
I'll always miss
I'll never forget
The way we kissed
The time stood still
The time was flying
I wonder why
I'm not dying

Na na na na na

Na na na na na

You Can't Put Your Arms Around What's Already Gone-Roxette

Lyrics With Thanks From-https://www.azlyrics.com
.
I saw red, stayed at home
Placed a big pillow over the phone
In this town where I'm from
I've learned two is so much better than one

But you left me alone
You can't put your arms around what's already gone
Watch you sink like a stone
You can't put your arms around what's already gone

Well, you hurt to the core
You used to kiss like no one had done before
And your taste turned me on
Now you drive me real crazy just by being born

Cos you left (left left left) me alone (left me alone)
And you can't put your arms around what's already gone
Watch you sink like a stone
You can't put your arms around what's already gone

Baba b-baba b-baba ba
Baba b-baba b-baba ba

Took the tram 'round the bay
Where everyone tells you to have a nice day
And my pride almost broke
When the tears don't fit you, you look like a joke

And you left (left left left) me alone (left me alone)
You can't put your arms around what's already gone
Cryin' eyes gettin' worn
You can't put your arms around what's already gone

Hey, you left (left left left) me alone (left me alone)
You can't put your arms around what's already gone
Watch you sink like a stone
You can't put your arms around what's already gone

Baba b-baba b-baba ba
Baba b-baba b-baba ba


Behind The Wall-Tracy Chapman

Lyrics With Thanks From-https://www.azlyrics.com
.
Last night I heard the screaming
Loud voices behind the wall
Another sleepless night for me
It won't do no good to call
The police always come late
If they come at all

And when they arrive
They say, "they can't interfere
With domestic affairs,
Between a man and his wife."
And as they walk out the door
The tears well up in her eyes

Last night I heard the screaming
Then a silence that chilled my soul
I prayed that I was dreaming
When I saw the ambulance in the road
And the policeman said,
"I'm here to keep the peace."
Will the crowd disperse
I think we all could use some sleep"



Across The Lines-Tracy Chapman

Lyrics With Thanks From-https://www.azlyrics.com
.
Across the lines
Who would dare to go
Under the bridge
Over the tracks
That separates whites from blacks

Choose sides
Or run for your life
Tonight the riots begin
On the back streets of America
They kill the dream of America

Little black girl gets assaulted
Ain't no reason why
Newspaper prints the story
And racist tempers fly
Next day it starts a riot
Knives and guns are drawn
Two black boys get killed
One white boy goes blind

Across the lines
Who would dare to go
Under the bridge
Over the tracks
That separates whites from blacks

Choose sides
Or run for your life
Tonight the riots begin
On the back streets of America
They kill the dream of America

Little black girl gets assaulted
Don't no one know her name
Lots of people hurt and angry
She's the one to blame

Across the lines
Who would dare to go
Under the bridge
Over the tracks
That separates whites from blacks

Choose sides
Or run for your life
Tonight the riots begin
On the back streets of America

They kill the dream of America

Fast Car-Tracy Chapman

Lyrics With Thanks From-https://www.azlyrics.com
.
You got a fast car
I want a ticket to anywhere
Maybe we make a deal
Maybe together we can get somewhere
Any place is better
Starting from zero got nothing to lose
Maybe we'll make something
Me myself I got nothing to prove

You got a fast car
I got a plan to get us out of here
I been working at the convenience store
Managed to save just a little bit of money
Won't have to drive too far
Just 'cross the border and into the city
You and I can both get jobs
And finally see what it means to be living

See my old man's got a problem
He live with the bottle that's the way it is
He says his body's too old for working
His body's too young to look like his
My mama went off and left him
She wanted more from life than he could give
I said somebody's got to take care of him
So I quit school and that's what I did

You got a fast car
Is it fast enough so we can fly away?
We gotta make a decision
Leave tonight or live and die this way

So remember when we were driving driving in your car
Speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone

You got a fast car
We go cruising, entertain ourselves
You still ain't got a job
And I work in a market as a checkout girl
I know things will get better
You'll find work and I'll get promoted
We'll move out of the shelter
Buy a bigger house and live in the suburbs

So remember when we were driving driving in your car
Speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone

You got a fast car
I got a job that pays all our bills
You stay out drinking late at the bar
See more of your friends than you do of your kids
I'd always hoped for better
Thought maybe together you and me would find it
I got no plans I ain't going nowhere
So take your fast car and keep on driving

So remember when we were driving driving in your car
Speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone

You got a fast car
Is it fast enough so you can fly away?
You gotta make a decision

Leave tonight or live and die this way

Talkin' Bout A Revolution-Tracy Chapman

Lyrics With Thanks From-https://www.azlyrics.com
.
Don't you know
They're talkin' 'bout a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
Don't you know
They're talkin' about a revolution
It sounds like a whisper

While they're standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines
Sitting around waiting for a promotion

Don't you know
Talkin' 'bout a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
Poor people gonna rise up
And get their share
Poor people gonna rise up
And take what's theirs

Don't you know
You better run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run
Oh I said you better
Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run

'Cause finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin' bout a revolution
Yes, finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin' bout a revolution, oh no
Talkin' bout a revolution, oh

While they're standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines

Sitting around waiting for a promotion

i don't wanna fight no more- westlife

Lyrics With Thanks From-https://www.azlyrics.com
.
I can't sleep,
everything i ever knew,
Is a lie,
without you,

I can't breathe,
when my heart is broke in two,
There's no beat,
without you,

You're not gone,
but you're not here,
At least that's the way it seems tonight,
If we could try to end these wars,
I know that we can make it right,
cause baby,

I don't wanna fight no more,
I forgot what we were fighting for,
and this lonelyness that's in my heart,
won't let me be apart from you,

I don't wanna have to try,
Girl, to live without you in my life,
So, i'm hoping we can start tonight,
cause i don't wanna fight,
no more,

How can I leave,
when everything that I adore,
and everything I'm living for,
Girl, it's in you,

I can't dream,
sleepless nights have got me bad,
The only dream i ever had,
is being with you,

I know that we can make it right,
It's gonna take a little time,
Lets not leave ourselves with no way out,
lets not cross that line,(that line)

I don't wanna fight no more,
I forgot what we were fighting for,
and this lonelyness that's in my heart,
won't let me be apart from you,

I don't wanna have to try,
Girl, to live without you in my life,
So, i'm hoping we can start tonight,
cause i don't wanna fight,
no more,

Remember that i made a vow,
that i would never let you go,
I meant it then, I mean it now,
and i want to tell you so,

I don't wanna fight no more, (oh no)
I forgot what we were fighting for,
and this lonelyness that's in my heart,
won't let me be apart from you,

I don't wanna have to try,
Girl, to live without you in my life,
So, i'm hoping we can start tonight,
(can we start)
cause i don't wanna fight,
no more...

I don't wanna fight no more,
I forgot what we were fighting for, (oh yeah)
and this lonelyness that's in my heart,
(my heart)
won't let me be apart from you,

I don't wanna have to try,
Girl, to live without you in my life,
So, i'm hoping we can start tonight,
(I'm hoping)
cause i don't wanna fight,
no more.......

It's all a lie,
Without you,

without you......

No No- Westlife

Lyrics With Thanks From-https://www.azlyrics.com
.
Once,
we had it all for the taking,
love was just me and you,
You better think twice,
about the plans that you're making,
of splitting one word in two,

Put your mind in doubt,
did you ever think about,
everything that we're missing,
Don't you make me see,
what is best for me,
cause I just won't listen, baby

no no no no
I don't need nobody,
anyone to take your place but you,
no no no no
I just couldn't fall for anyone new,
nobody but you,

Girl,
you are the life that i'm living,
I just can't go on without you,
Let's make it alright,
wake up to what we've been given,
remember the things we've been through,

Put your mind in doubt,
did you ever think about,
everything that we're missing,
Don't you make me see,
what is best for me,
cause I just won't listen, baby

no no no no
I don't need nobody,
anyone to take your place but you,
no no no no
I just couldn't fall for anyone new,
nobody but you,

I can't imagine,
the two of us apart,
Can't find a reason,
cause I still believe,
There's no one like you,
that is why I need,
nobody but you,

don't need nobody,
yeahhhhhh.........
To take your place but you,
no no no no no no
Don't need nobody at all,
no no no no no no

no no no no
I don't need nobody,
(don't need nobody)
anyone could take your place but you,
no no no no
I just couldn't fall for anyone new,
(no no no no)
nobody but you,

no no no no no no
I don't need nobody,
no no no no no ,baby
I don't need nobody,
no no no no no no
I just couldn't fall for anyone new,
nobody but you


daydream-- john denver

Lyrics With Thanks From-https://www.azlyrics.com
.
Yes, I been dreaming about you every day, each and every day.
And I been thinking about all night long, I even wrote a song.
Just to try and tell you how I really feel, to make you understand my love is real,
that you're on my mind all the time, I wish to God you were mine once again.

I remember talking to you, I remember walking with you,
I remember laughing all the time when you were mine.
Now the days seem so long, I can't face the night alone,
I beg you please, won't you please come home.

I remember talking to you, I remember walking with you,
I remember laughing all the time when you were mine.
Now the days seem so long, I can't face the night alone,

I beg you please, won't you please come home.

Catch Another Butterfly-- John Denver

Lyrics With Thanks From-https://www.azlyrics.com
.
Do you remember days not so very long ago, when the world was run by people twice your size?
And the days were full of laughter and the nights were full of stars,
and when you grew tired you could close your eyes.
Yes, the stars were there for wishing and the wind was there for kites,
and the morning sun was there for rise and shine.
And even if the sniffles kept you home from school in bed,
you couldn't hardly stay there after nine
And I wonder if the smell of morning's faded,
what happened to the robin's song that sparkled in the sky?
Where's all the water gone that tumbled down the stream? Will I ever catch another butterfly?

Do you remember campouts right in your own backyard wondering how airplanes could fly?
And the hours spent just playing with a funny rock you found
with crystal specks as blue as all the sky.
And I wonder if the smell of morning's faded,
what happened to the robin's song that sparkled in the sky?
Where's all the water gone that tumbled down the stream? Will I ever catch another butterfly?

Now I watch my son, he's playing with his toys, he's happy, I give him all I can.
But I can't help feeling just a little tingly inside when I hear him say he wants to be a man.
And I wonder if the smell of morning's faded,
what happened to the robin's song that sparkled in the sky?

Where's all the water gone that tumbled down the stream? Will I ever catch another butterfly?

The Love Of Common People --John Denver

Lyrics With Thanks From-https://www.azlyrics.com
.
Living on free food tickets. Water in the milk from the hole in the roof
where the rain came through, what can we do? Mmm.
Tears from your baby sister, crying 'cause she doesn't have a dress
Without a patch for the party to go, oh but you know she'll get by,
Because she's living in the love of the common people, smiles from the heart of a family man.
Daddy's gonna buy you a dream to cling to,
Mommy's gonna love you just as much as she can, and she can.

It's a good thing you don't have bus-fare, it would fall through the hole in your pocket
And you'd lose it in the snow on the ground, walking to the town to find a job.
Trying to keep your hands warm, but the hole in your shoe lets the snow come through
and it chills to the bone. Boy you better go home where it's warm.
And you can live in the love of the common people, smiles from the heart of a family man.
Daddy's gonna buy you a dream to cling to,
Mommy's gonna love you just as much as she can, and she can.

Living on dreams ain't easy, but the closer the knit, the tighter the fit
and the chills stay away, you take them in stride, family pride.
You know, faith is your foundation, with a whole lot of love
and a warm conversation and many a prayer, making you strong where you belong.
Living in the love of the common people, smiles from the heart of a family man.
Daddy's gonna buy you a dream to cling to,
Mommy's gonna love you just as much as she can, and she can.
Living in the love of the common people, smiles from the heart of a family man.
Daddy's gonna buy you a dream to cling to,

Mommy's gonna love you just as much as she can, and she can.
