If I could live forever
Would you be there by my side?
If I could be a dreamer
Would you be the star in my sky?
If we could be together
Would you hold me when I cry?
If I could make the world sing
Would you help my spirit fly…oh so high?
(Pre-Chorus)
And when the days of sorrow
Come into my life
Will you go tomorrow
And leave me in my strife?
(Chorus)
I guess somethings in life are better left unsaid now
There’s room for doubts and fears and questions in my head how
Your love is like a drink that never gets me drunk so
I wish you could decide if I could be the true key to your heart
If I could be an ocean
Would you be my only tide?
If I could be a forest
Would you be my rain tonight?
If I could be a tunnel
Would you be that shed of light?
If I could be an angel
Would you be my wings for flight?
(Pre-Chorus)
And when the days of sorrow
Come into my life
Will you go tomorrow
And leave me in my strife?
(Chorus)
I guess somethings in life are better left unsaid now
There’s room for doubts and fears and questions in my head how
Your love is like a drink that never gets me drunk so
I wish you could decide if I could be the true key to your heart
(Chorus)
I guess somethings in life are better left unsaid now
There’s room for doubts and fears and questions in my head how
Your love is like a drink that never gets me drunk so
I wish you could decide if I could be the true key to your heart
She opens my eyes and paints a smile on my face
Her face is a canvas, her body divine
She captures my soul and keeps my heart waiting
But tomorrow the sun will rise…
(Chorus)
When I look in her eyes
When I look in her eyes
She dances from heaven, but she’s longing to be led
Her laughter is music, a spirit so sweet
She touches my life and keeps me enchanted
Her key is my heart’s disguise
(Chorus)
When I look in her eyes
When I look in her eyes
[Bridge]
She brings peace to my life
Sets me free when we unite
Who knew she’d be so right…
She lifts all my troubles with every breath she takes,
Every move she makes
Her style is amazing, she’s so full of grace
She leaves me no chance to try and surrender
Our fate is my own surmise…
(Chorus)
When I look in her eyes
When I look in her eyes
When I look in her eyes
When I look in her eyes
Oh….
Yeah…
Yeah…
Her eyes…
Her eyes…
When I look in her eyes…
(Intro)
When will all this end, suffering and such?
We take for granted the love we’ve got to give
So let’s not regress into ourselves
Just make the best of it…
Said I always want to live without regret, but I forget
I always thought time was always on my side
Guess that was always in my mind
We must learn to forget the things we expect
In order for us to evolve and respect
This gift of life is all we’ve got to see and withstand
(Pre-Chorus)
To love is life
And life is to love
Open your eyes, it’s plain to see
Be the cure instead of the disease
When you rise, when you rise…
When you rise, rise…
In my dreams I can only see what my mind sees
We can only believe what we want to believe
We must learn to forget the things we expect
In order for us to evolve and respect
This gift of life is all we’ve got to see and withstand
(Pre-Chorus)
To love is life
And life is to love
Open your eyes, it’s plain to see
Be the cure instead of the disease
When you rise, when you rise…
When you rise, rise…
(Re-intro)
When will all this end, suffering and such?
We take for granted the love we’ve got to give
So let’s not regress, but it all works out
Just make the best of it…
(Chorus)
Come on lift your head
Come on lift your head
Come on lift your head
Come on lift your head
Follow the sun
Follow the sun
Follow the sun
Follow the sun
(Chorus)
Come on lift your head
Come on lift your head
Come on lift your head
Come on lift your head
So you say
Separate ways
Another day goes by
I might find
The truth inside
Of my mind, but still…
(Chorus)
I will walk on water just to see your face again
I will walk on water just to see your face again
A tender touch
Is never much
When you’re not around
This time I see
Eternity
In my loss of you
Chorus)
But I will walk on water just to see your face again
I will walk on water just to see your face again
Yeah I will walk on water just to see your face again
Yeah I will walk on water just to see your face again
[Bridge]
Oh…yeah
Oh…yeah
Yeah ooh.
Pick me up when people kick me down
Lift me up when skies are looking grey
Hook me up with all your love and care
Soak me up with all I have to bear
(Pre-Chorus)
If I only knew where I stood
With you then I could…
(Chorus)
Be cool
So cool…
Thinking through my actions and retorts
Faking few with all the games I play
Picture you, you’re always on my mind
Picture me, the one you left behind
(Pre-Chorus)
If I only knew where I stood
With you then I could…
(Chorus)
Be cool
So cool…
[Bridge]
So I looked away keeping each other for a rainy day
I do regret you couldn’t appease me with your lonesome ways
Be cool…
Thinking back on all the hope I had
But to you it was always just a fad
Misery can only keep a memory
When it’s you keeping me a prisoner
(Pre-Chorus)
’Cause I’ve always know where I stand
With you now I can…
Be cool
I want to be crazy, sexy cool, crazy, sexy cool
I want to be crazy, sexy cool like you
I want to be crazy, sexy cool like you
Crazy sexy cool, crazy, sexy cool
I want to be crazy, sexy cool like you
I want to be crazy, sexy cool like you
(Intro)
So our paths fork on this road
So our paths fork on this road
You go your way
I go mine
You go your way
I go mine
But tonight I want to make you mine…
All mine
Tonight I want to make you mine…
All mine
Tonight I want to make you mine
All mine
Tonight I want to make you mine
All mine
It’s so hard to know when to let go
It’s so difficult to say goodbye
I try to hold on, but you’ve got to leave
When will the night be just a dream?
(Pre-Chorus)
All I see is how I long to be
By your side…
(Chorus)
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight
You kiss me with all the love inside
Yet run away so you can hide
You fight the battle of the heart and mind
Once you surrender, you will find…
(Pre-Chorus)
All I see is how I long to be
In your arms…
(Chorus)
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight
[Bridge]
All I want is to hold you tight through the night
All I want is to hold you tight through the night
Tonight
I hope someday my love will do
But know this, I’ve always loved you
You are the reason love can be so strong
Why keep me waiting so long?
(Pre-chorus)
All I see is what you mean to me
Stay with me/In your heart…
(Chorus)
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight
I want you, need you tonight
I want you, need you tonight
I want you, need you tonight
I want you, need you tonight
I’ll stand alone to adore you
I’ll stand alone waiting for something new
I’ll stand alone if my heart breaks
I’ll stand alone no matter how long it takes
(Pre-Chorus)
Your troubled ways make my day
(Chorus)
I’ll stand alone living without you
I’ll stand alone not knowing what to do
(Pre-Chorus)
Those endless fights saved my nights
(Chorus)
When everybody thinks you’re wrong
But your light still carries on
I will always stand alone
I’ll stand alone looking through you
I’ll stand alone to find every clue
(Pre-Chorus)
You held my heart from the start
(Chorus)
When everybody thinks you’re wrong
But your light still carries on
I will always stand alone
When every chance you take is gone
And you turn over each stone
I will always stand alone
[Bridge]
I keep holding on to your last breath
I get cold knowing you keep us apart
I’ll stand alone for a chosen few
I’ll stand alone in the love we once knew
(Pre-Chorus)
All this time, you’re on my mind
(Chorus)
When everybody thinks you’re wrong
But your light still carries on
I will always stand alone
When every chance you take is gone
And you turn over each stone
I will always stand alone
I’ll stand alone
I will always stand alone
So here I am waiting for each other
You make the first move and I’ll follow is the common plea
And here I stand sifting through this madness
When there’s simplicity, why does there have to be misery?
(Chorus)
Wise men say all we need is each other
But still we stay the same
What’s left of me is yearning to discover
A world that sees you and me and all that’s free
In harmony
(Chorus)
Wise men say all we need is each other
But still we stay the same
[Bridge]
And she can make me fly
If she decides to try
Oh…
Some years ago this song remained unspoken
But once your trust is broken, what’s the point of faith in anyone?
So there you are looking for the answers
Take from me, lift from me the burden we disagree
In dignity
(Chorus)
Wise men say all we need is each other
But still we stay the same
There’s a difference…
You’re the difference
I’m the difference
Together we’re the difference.
Come what may become my way.
When the tears dry up
And the clouds seem to linger on
If the battle makes you weary
When the conflict keeps you lost
Cling to the passing of every moment
Where there is fire on your road
(Chorus)
Only hope can make you strong
Believe in fate to make things right
And after all the stars have sung
It’s all going to fade away
Even the toughest man can fall apart
When choices are all we have
Take the wrong turns for the right ones
To bring us closer to what we need
Sometimes the changes we find the hardest
Will conquer darkness for room to breathe
(Chorus)
Only hope can make you strong
Believe in fate to make things right
And after all the stars have sung
We’re all going to fade away
[Bridge]
I keep on holding on
To all the colors you painted in my world
Unlocking endless thoughts
That melted through my dream of you
Life can be a test of blind faith
When we’re wading in a sea of doubt
I’ve watched you struggle in your silence
To find the lonely voice of reason
I hear your whisper, but cannot follow
While the door to your heart is closed
(Chorus)
Only hope can make you strong
Believe in fate to make things right
And after all the stars have sung
We’re all going to fade away (x3)
Fade away, fade away
We’re all going to fade away…
Dead end roads are no place to go
Where’s the fork in this road
Could you point me in the right direction
When I just wanna go where I’m known
(Chorus)
Where do these broken roads go
When does the light shine on down
Where do these broken roads go
And can one of these please take me home
Life is made up of all these roads
The trick’s to find which one keeps you going on and on
If you find one, please let me know
‘Cause I just want a place to call my own
(Chorus)
Where do these broken roads go
When does the light shine on down
Where do these broken roads go
And can one of these please take me home
[Bridge]
If home is where the heart is
Then I guess I’m just (still) lost at sea
Is there anybody out there
Who can give me the faith to believe
Time will dry all these tears of pain
But how can I not look without regret
I shall keep on this path of unknown
Just hope I can find my way home…
(Chorus) x2
Where do these broken roads go
When does the light shine on down
Where do these broken roads go
And can one of these please take me home
On this journey, several paths lay before me
And I don’t know which to take, which one to forsake,
Which one of these will leave me alone
Please take me home
So I choose a direction
Only time can stop me now
There’s no more looking back, nothing to distract,
I keep my feet intact,
But will this be enough to find my way home
(Chorus)
Home is what I can believe in
Home is where my darkness falls
Home is how I can be needed to love
For the unforgiven, can we stop this clouded sky?
‘Cause we all have touched the rain, felt the kiss of pain,
Loved with much refrain,
But are we even close, close to coming home
(Chorus)
Home is what I can believe in
Home is where my darkness falls
Home is how I can be needed to love
Home is home. Home is home.
Crowd together to hear
No matter your fear
To acknowledge, the storms
Come around so much more
Realize in time
Rain will knock on your door
If your life is to you
Worth a penny or two
Then you best start your paddling’
Or you’ll drown to the floor
For the world keeps on revolving
All reporters and press
Who exploit with your words
Leave your eyes fully open
Moments fly like the birds
Don’t be quick to say
For the deed’s still not done
Hold our enemies close
Or they’ll stray from the herd
And there’s no pointing fingers
When the war isn’t won
How the world keeps on revolving
Politricks, young and old
Take notice of our stance
No need to/don’t block the wind of change
To show us your dance
Oh, the country’s at stake
Don’t miss this fine chance
Civil storms are around
And it’s thunder is fuming
It will soon rock your whimpers
And shatter your rants/halls
But the world keeps on revolving
To our mothers and fathers
Who live in this land
(Please) don’t pick apart each true lesson
When you won’t/don’t understand
Your children are marching
Way beyond past the sand
Your old ways behind us
While our jobs have been canned
Please let go of your stronghold
If you can’t give a hand
While the world keeps on revolving
The walls have come down
Foundations have crashed
The mind that moves slow
Can always win fast
As time slips on by
The future never can last
The results have come in
But these games soon will pass
The smart ones someday
(May) fall to the back of the class
When the world keeps on revolving
See the world keeps on revolving
Help the world keep on revolving
