Sing with me!

[limlight81]

I don't know what it is

That makes me feel alive

I don't know how to wake

The things that sleep inside

I only wanna see the light

That shines behind your eyes

 

I hope that I can say

The things I wish I'd said

To sing my soul to sleep

And take me back to bed

You want to be alone

When we could be alive instead

 

Because we need each other

We believe in one another

And I know we're going to uncover

What's sleepin' in our soul

Because we need each other

We believe in one another

(And) I know we're going to uncover

What's sleepin' in our soul

What's sleepin' in our soul

 

There are many things

That I would like to know

And there are many places

That I wish to go

But everything's depending

On the way the wind may blow

I don't know what it is

That makes me feel alive

I don't know how to wake

The things that sleep inside

I only wanna see the light

That shines behind your eyes

 

Because we need each other

We believe in one another

And I know we're going to uncover

What's sleepin' in our soul

Because we need each other

We believe in one another

(And) I know we're going to uncover

What's sleepin' in our soul

What's sleepin' in our soul

 

What's sleepin' in our soul

What's sleepin' in our soul

'Cause we believe

'Cause we believe

Yeah, we believe

'Cause we believe

'Cause we believe

'Cause we believe

Because we need

Because we need

 

[limlight81]

Slip inside the eye of your mind

Don't you know you might find

A better place to play

You said that you'd never been

But all the things that you've seen

Will slowly fade away

 

So I start a revolution from my bed

'Cause you said the brains I had went to my head

Step outside the summertime's in bloom

Stand up beside the fireplace

Take that look from off your face

You ain't ever gonna burn my heart out

 

And so Sally can wait, she knows it's too late as we're walking on by

Her soul slides away, but don't look back in anger

I heard you say

 

Take me to the place where you go

Where nobody knows, if it's night or day.

Please don't put your life in the hands

Of a Rock 'n Roll band

Who'll throw it all away

 

I'm gonna start the revolution from my bed

'Cos you said the brains I had went to my head

Step outside cos summertime's in bloom

Stand up beside the fireplace

Take that look from off your face

Cos you ain't ever gonna burn my heart out

 

And So Sally can wait, she knows it's too late as she's walking on by.

My soul slides away, but don't look back in anger

I heard you say

 

So Sally can wait, she knows it's too late as we're walking on by

Her soul slides away, but don't look back in anger

I heard you say

 

And So Sally can wait, she knows it's too late and she's walking on by

My soul slides away, but don't look back in anger, don't look back in anger

I heard you say

 

At least not today.

What she said

She said to me

Take me high on a mountain side

She was dressed up in leopard skin

And her soul would never be denied

 

I met her down the disco in a beat up car

She was burning down the road

She looked just like a star in a Jaguar

She needs to lighten her load

 

And when you might

Think you're gonna cry

It will be all right

Step out tonight

 

You might

Think you're gonna cry

It will be all right

Step out tonight

 

What I said

I said to her

I'm alive when you walk that way

Can you hear what I can hear?

It's the sound of a brand new day

 

She met me down a disco in a beat up car

I was burning down the road

I can be a star in a Jaguar

I need to lighten my load

Because you might think you're gonna cry

It will be all right

Step out tonight

 

You might

Think you're gonna cry

It will be all right

Step out tonight

 

Well my whole life been sinking in the water

I need a ship not your sweet lip tonight

 

You might

Think you're gonna cry

It will be all right

Step out tonight

 

You might

Think you're gonna cry

It will be all right

Step out tonight

 

You might

Think you're gonna cry

It will be all right

Step out tonight

 

You might

Think you're gonna cry

It will be all right

I live my life in the city

There's no easy way out

The day's moving just too fast for me

I need some time in the sunshine

Gotta slow it right down

The day's moving just too fast for me

I live my life for the stars that shine

People say it's just a waste of time

When they said I should feed my head

That to me was just a day in bed

I'll take my car and drive real far

They're not concerned about the way we are

In my mind my dreams are real

Now you concerned about the way I feel

 

Tonight I'm a rock n roll star

I get up - when I'm down

I can't swim - but my soul won't drown

I do believe - I got flare

I got speed and I walk on air

 

Cos God gimme soul and all rock'n'roll (babe)

Cos God gimme soul and all rock'n'roll (babe)

 

And I get so high I just can't feel it

And I get so high I just can't feel it

 

In and out my brain, runnin' through my veins

Cos you're my sunshine you're my rain

 

There's a light - that shines on

Shines - on - me - and it keeps me warm

It gimme peace - I must say

I can't sleep - cos the world won't wait

 

[limlight81]

Today is gonna be the day

That they're gonna throw it back to you

By now you should've somehow

Realized what you gotta do

I don't believe that anybody

Feels the way I do about you now

 

Backbeat, the word is on the street

That the fire in your heart is out

I'm sure you've heard it all before

But you never really had a doubt

I don't believe that anybody

Feels the way I do about you now

 

And all the roads we have to walk are winding

And all the lights that lead us there are blinding

There are many things that I would

Like to say to you

But I don't know how

 

Because maybe

You're gonna be the one that saves me

And after all

You're my wonderwall

 

Today was gonna be the day

But they'll never throw it back to you

By now you should've somehow

Realized what you're not to do

I don't believe that anybody

Feels the way I do about you now

 

And all the roads that lead you there were winding

And all the lights that light the way are blinding

There are many things that I would like to say to you

But I don't know how

 

I said maybe

You're gonna be the one that saves me

And after all

You're my wonderwall

 

I said maybe

You're gonna be the one that saves me

And after all

You're my wonderwall

 

I said maybe

You're gonna be the one that saves me

You're gonna be the one that saves me

You're gonna be the one that saves me

 

[limlight81]

found what I lost inside

my spirit has been purified

take a thorn from my pride

and hand in hand we'll take a walk outside

 

thank you for the sun

the one that shines on everyone

who feels love

now there's a million years between my fantasies and fears

i feel love

 

i'm leaving all that I see

now all my emotions fill the air I breathe

now you understand that this is not the promised land they spoke of

there's nothing more to be if you can be the remedy who heals love

 

i thank you for the sun

the one that shines on everyone

who feels love

now there's a million years between my fantasies and fears

i feel love

i thank you for the sun, the one that shines on everyone

who feels love

now there's a million years between my fantasies and fears

i feel love

 

 

[limlight81]

Hold up

Hold on

Don't be scared,

You'll never change what's been and gone

May your smile, (may your smile)

Shine on, (shine on)

Don't be scared, (don't be scared)

Your destiny may keep you warm,

 

'Cause all of the stars,

Have faded away

Just try not to worry,

You'll see them someday,

Take what you need,

And be on your way and

Stop crying your heart out

 

Get up, (get up)

Come on, (come on)

Why you scared? (I'm not scared)

You'll never change what's been and gone

 

'Cause all of the stars,

Have faded away

Just try not to worry,

You'll see them some day,

Take what you need,

And be on your way and

Stop crying your heart out

 

'Cause all of the stars,

Have faded away

Just try not to worry,

You'll see them someday.

Just take what you need,

And be on your way and

Stop crying your heart out

 

We're all of the stars,

We're fading away.

Just try not to worry,

You'll see us someday.

Just take what you need,

And be on your way and

Stop crying your heart out...

 

[limlight81]

I wanna run, I want to hide

I wanna tear down the walls

That hold me inside.

I wanna reach out

And touch the flame

Where the streets have no name.

 

I wanna feel sunlight on my face.

I see the dust-cloud

Disappear without a trace.

I wanna take shelter

From the poison rain

Where the streets have no name

Where the streets have no name

Where the streets have no name.

 

We're still building and burning down love

Burning down love.

And when I go there

I go there with you

(It's all I can do).

 

The city's a flood, and our love turns to rust.

We're beaten and blown by the wind

Trampled in dust.

I'll show you a place

High on a desert plain

Where the streets have no name

Where the streets have no name

Where the streets have no name.

 

We're still building and burning down love

Burning down love.

And when I go there

I go there with you

(It's all I can do).

[limlight81]

I have climbed the highest mountains

I have run through the fields

Only to be with you

Only to be with you.

 

I have run, I have crawled

I have scaled these city walls

These city walls

Only to be with you.

 

But I still haven't found

What I'm looking for.

But I still haven't found

What I'm looking for.

 

I have kissed honey lips

Felt the healing in her finger tips

It burned like fire

(I was) burning inside her.

 

I have spoke with the tongue of angels

I have held the hand of a devil

It was warm in the night

I was cold as a stone.

 

But I still haven't found

What I'm looking for.

But I still haven't found

What I'm looking for.

 

I believe in the Kingdom Come

Then all the colours will bleed into one

Bleed into one.

But yes, I'm still running.

 

You broke the bonds

And you loosed the chains

Carried the cross of my shame

Oh my shame, you know I believe it.

 

But I still haven't found

What I'm looking for.

But I still haven't found

What I'm looking for.

 

But I still haven't found

What I'm looking for.

But I still haven't found

What I'm looking for.

[limlight81]

[limlight81]

In the howlin' wind

Comes a stingin' rain

See it drivin' nails

Into the souls on the tree of pain.

 

From the firefly

A red orange glow

See the face of fear

Runnin' scared in the valley below.

 

Bullet the blue sky

Bullet the blue sky

Bullet the blue

Bullet the blue.

 

In the locust wind

Comes a rattle and hum.

Jacob wrestled the angel

And the angel was overcome.

 

You plant a demon seed

You raise a flower of fire.

We see them burnin' crosses

See the flames, higher and higher.

 

Woh, woh, bullet the blue sky

Bullet the blue sky

Bullet the blue

Bullet the blue.

 

Suit and tie comes up to me

His face red like a rose on a thorn bush

Like all the colours of a royal flush

And he's peelin' off those dollar bills

(Slappin' 'em down)

One hundred, two hundred.

 

And I can see those fighter planes

And I can see those fighter planes

Across the tin huts as children sleep

Through the alleys of a quiet city street.

Up the staircase to the first floor

We turn the key and slowly unlock the door

As a man breathes into his saxophone

And through the walls you hear the city groan.

Outside, is America

Outside, is America

America.

 

See across the field

See the sky ripped open

See the rain comin' through the gapin' wound

Howlin' the women and children

Who run into the arms

Of America.

[limlight81]

And so she woke up

Woke up from where she was lyin' still.

Said I gotta do something

About where we're goin'.

 

Step on a fast train

Step out of the driving rain, maybe

Run from the darkness in the night.

Singing ah, ah la la la de day

Ah la la la de day.

 

Sweet the sin, bitter the taste in my mouth.

I see seven towers, but I only see one way out.

You gotta cry without weeping, talk without speaking

Scream without raising your voice.

You know I took the poison, from the poison stream

Then I floated out of here, singing

Ah la la la de day

Ah la la la de day.

 

She walks through the streets

With her eyes painted red

Under black belly of cloud in the rain.

In through a doorway

She brings me white golden pearls

Stolen from the sea.

 

She is ragin'

She is ragin'

And the storm blows up in her eyes.

She will suffer the needle chill

She's running to stand still.

[limlight81]

[limlight81]

Desert sky, dream beneath the desert sky.

The rivers run but soon run dry.

We need new dreams tonight.

Desert rose, dreamed I saw a desert rose

Dress torn in ribbons and bows

Like a siren she calls (to me).

 

Sleep comes like a drug in God's country

Sad eyes, crooked crosses, in God's country

 

Set me alight, we'll punch a hole right through the night.

Every day the dreamers die to see what's on the other side.

She is liberty, and she comes to rescue me.

Hope, faith, her vanity

The greatest gift is gold.

 

Sleep comes like a drug in God's country

Sad eyes, crooked crosses, in God's country

 

Naked flame, she stands with a naked flame

I stand with the sons of Cain

Burned by the fire of love

Burned by the fire of love.

[limlight81]

In the distance, she saw me comin' round

I was callin' out, I was callin' out.

Still shakin', still in pain

You put me back together again.

I was cold and you clothed me, honey

I was down, and you lifted me, honey.

 

Angel, angel or devil?

I was thirsty

And you wet my lips.

You, I'm waiting for you

You, you set my desire

I trip through your wires.

 

I was broken, bent out of shape

I was naked in the clothes you made.

Lips were dry, throat like rust

You gave me shelter from the heat and the dust.

No more water in the well

No more water, water.

 

Angel, angel or devil?

I was thirsty

And you wet my lips.

You, I'm waiting for you

You, you set my desire

I trip through your wires.

 

Oh I need, oh I need

Oh I need, oh I need it.

Oh I need, oh I need

All I need, yeah, yeah!

 

Thunder, thunder on the mountain

There's a raincloud

In the desert sky.

In the distance

She saw me comin' round

I was callin' out

I was callin' out.

[limlight81]

We turn away to face the cold, enduring chill

As the day begs the night for mercy, love.

 

A sun so bright it leaves no shadows

Only scars carved into stone on the face of earth.

 

The moon is up and over One Tree Hill

We see the sun go down in your eyes.

 

You run like a river on to the sea

You run like a river runs to the sea.

 

And in the world, a heart of darkness, a fire-zone

Where poets speak their heart then bleed for it

 

Jara sang, his song a weapon in the hands of love.

You know his blood still cries from the ground.

 

It runs like a river runs to the sea.

It runs like a river to the sea.

 

I don't believe in painted roses or bleeding hearts

While bullets rape the night of the merciful.

 

I'll see you again when the stars fall from the sky

And the moon has turned red over One Tree Hill.

 

We run like a river runs to the sea

We run like a river to the sea.

 

And when it's rainin', rainin' hard

That's when the rain will break a heart.

 

Rainin', rainin' in your heart

Rainin' in your heart.

Rainin', rain into your heart

Rainin', rainin', rainin'

Rain into your heart.

Rainin', ooh, rain in your heart, yeah.

Feel it.

 

Oh great ocean

Oh great sea

Run to the ocean

Run to the sea.

[limlight81]

You know he got the cure

But then he went astray

He used to stay awake

To drive the dreams he had away.

He wanted to believe

In the hands of love.

 

His head it felt heavy

As he came across the land

A dog started cryin'

Like a broken-hearted man

At the howling wind

At the howling wind.

 

He went deeper into black

Deeper into white.

He could see the stars shine

Like nails in the night.

 

He felt the healing

Healing, healing, healing hands of love

Like the stars shiny, shiny from above.

 

A hand in the pocket

Fingering the steel

The pistol weighed heavy

And his heart he could feel was beating

Beating, beating, beating,

Oh my love, oh my love

Oh my love, oh my love.

 

So hands that build

Can also pull down

The hands of love.

[limlight81]

Midnight, our sons and daughters

Were cut down and taken from us.

Hear their heartbeat

We hear their heartbeat.

 

In the wind we hear their laughter

In the rain we see their tears.

Hear their heartbeat, we hear their heartbeat.

 

Night hangs like a prisoner

Stretched over black and blue.

Hear their heartbeats

We hear their heartbeats.

 

In the trees our sons stand naked

Through the walls our daughter cry

See their tears in the rainfall.

 

[limlight81]

yesterday i got so old

i felt like i could die

yesterday i got so old

it made me want to cry

go on go on

just walk away

go on go on

your choice is made

go on go on

and disappear

go on go on

away from here

 

and i know i was wrong

when i said it was true

that it couldn't be me and be her

inbetween without you

without you

 

yesterday i got so scared

i shivered like a child

yesterday away from you

it froze me deep inside

come back come back

don't walk away

come back come back

come back today

come back come back

why can't you see?

come back come back

come back to me

 

and i know i was wrong

when i said it was true

that it couldn't be me and be her

inbetween without you

without you

 

[limlight81]

A nightmare of you

Of death in the pool

Wakes me up at quarter to three

I'm lying on the floor of the night before

With a stranger lying next to me

A nightmare of you

Of death in the pool

I see no further now than this dream

The trembling hands of the trembling man

Hold my mouth

To hold in a scream

 

I try to think

To make it slow

If only here is where i go

If this is real

I have to see

I turn on fire

And next to me...

It looks good!

It tastes like nothing on earth

It looks good!

It tastes like nothing on earth

It's so smooth it even feels like skin

It tells me how it feels to be new

 

it tells me how it feels to be new

a thousand voices whisper it true

it tells me how it feels to be new

and every voice belongs

every voice belongs to you

 

[limlight81]

tell me who doesn't love

what can never come back

you can never forget how it used to feel

the illusion is deep

it's as deep as the night

i can tell by your tears you remember it all

 

i am paralysed by the blood of christ

though it clouds my eyes

i can never stop

 

how it feels to be dry

walking bare in the sun

every mirage i see is a mirage of you

as i cool in the twilight

taste the salt on my skin

i recall all the tears

all the broken words

 

i am paralysed by the blood of christ

though it clouds my eyes

i can never stop

 

when the sunset's glow drifts away from you

you'll no longer know

if any of this was really true at all...
