*pokes head in*
Pavement Cracks by Annie Lennox

The city streets are wet again with rain
But I'm walkin' just the same
Skies turn to the usual grey
When you turn to face the day
And love don't show up in the pavement cracks
All my water colours fade to black
I'm goin' nowhere and I'm ten steps back
All my dreams have fallen flat

(Love don't show in the pavement cracks
There will be no turning back)

Time and space will pass us by and by
When we don't see eye to eye
I would have done anything
For happiness to bring ...
But it don't show up in the pavement cracks
I can't even cover up my tracks
I'm goin' nowhere and I'm light years back
Ooh I wish you well

How come
Every day
I'm still waiting for the change?
How come
I still say
Give me strength to live?

Where is my comfort zone?
A simple place to call my own
'Cause everything I wanna be
Comes crashing down on me
And it don't show up in the pavement cracks
I can't even recognise my tracks
You and I can't turn the whole thing back
Ooh I wish you well

Good Times Bad Times


In the days of my youth, I was told what it means to be a man,
Now I've reached that age, I've tried to do all those things the best I can.
No matter how I try, I find my way into the same old jam.
[Chorus]
Good Times, Bad Times, you know I had my share;
When my woman left home for a brown eyed man,
Well, I still don't seem to care.
Sixteen, I fell in love with a girl as sweet as could be,
Only took a couple of days 'til she was rid of me.
She swore that she would be all mine and love me till the end,
But when I whispered in her ear, I lost another friend, oooh.
[Chorus]
I know what it means to be alone, I sure do wish I was at home.
I don't care what the neighbors say, I'm gonna love you each and every day.
You can feel the beat within my heart.
Realize, sweet babe, we ain't ever gonna part.

A Day In The Life
The Beatles


I read the news today oh boy
About a lucky man who made the grade
And though the news was rather sad
Well I just had to laugh
I saw the photograph.
He blew his mind out in a car
He didn't notice that the lights have changed
A crowd of people stood and stared
They'd seen his face before
Nobody was really sure
If he was from the House of Lords.
I saw a film today oh boy
The English Army had just won the war
A crowd of people turned away
But I just had to look
Having read the book
I'd love to turn you on.

Woke up, fell out of bed,
Dragged my comb across my head
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup,
And looking up I noticed I was late.
Found my coat and grabbed my hat
Made the bus in seconds flat
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke,
Somebody spoke and I went into a dream.

I read the news today oh boy
Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire
And though the holes were rather small
They had to count them all
Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall.
I'd love to turn you on

The Juliana Theory - You Always Say Goodnight, Goodnight

Did you really think that it was over when you hung up the phone and said goodnight?
And did you you ever think it would be too much? I can't leave without saying goodbye.
So did you really think that you could take it? Could you make it alone tonight?
I never could have hoped for anything more. Be my angel if you can, alright.

You always say goodnight.
And you, you always goodnight.

So baby did you sleep an hour for me? How I wish I was there right now.
I wasn't going to tell you I could change things. I'm afraid I never will know how.
But I don't really think that I can take it. Will I make it alone somehow?
So hold me in your arms before I leave you. I'll be back as soon as time allows.

You always say goodnight.
And you, you always goodnight.

Born Country
Alabama


Clear creeks and cool mountain mornin's.
Honest work out in the fields.
Cornbread in my momma's kitchen.
Daddy saying grace before the meal.
Family ties run deep in this land.
And I'm never very far from what I am.

Chorus
I was born country and that's what I'll always be.
Like the rivers and the woodlands wild and free.
I got a hundred years of down home running through my blood.
I was born country and this country's what I love.

Moonlight and you here beside me.
Crickets serenadin' in the yard.
What more could two people ask for.
Laying here in love beneath the stars.
Now this is where I wanna raise my kids.
Just the way my mom and daddy did.

Chorus
I was born country and that's what I'll always be.
Like the rivers and the woodlands wild and free.
I got a hundred years of down home running through my blood.
I was born country and this country's what I love.

I was born country and that's what I'll always be.
Like the rivers and the woodlands wild and free.
I got a hundred years of down home running through my blood.
I was born country and this country's what I love.

I was born country.

pantera, hollow.

What's left inside him?
Don't he remember us?
Can't he believe me?
We seemed like bothers
Talked for hours last month
About what we wanna be
I sit now with his hand in mine
But I know he can't feel...

No one knows
What's done is done
It's as if he were dead

I'm close with his mother
And she cries endlessly
Lord how we miss him
At least what's remembered
It's so important to make best friends in life
But it's hard when my friend sits with blank expressions

No one knows
What's done is done
It's as if he were dead

He as hollow as I alone now
He as hollow as I alone
A shell of my friend
Just flesh and bone
There's no soul
He sees no love
I shake my fists at skies above
Mad at God

He as hollow as I converse
I wish he'd waken from this curse
Hear my words before it's through
I want to come in after you
My best friend

He as hollow as I alone

sevendust, waffle.
A Universe to fill
Can't scratch the surface
Now a slow pay
Still why everyone watching
It's like I'm real tired of the clones
I'm real tired of the clones

Whatever you say
Whatever you say
Whatever you say

Bring me a light
Make my life worth something more
Show me a light
Bring a light

Bring me a light
Make my life worth something more
Show me a light
Bring a light

Where's the space I fill
Where's the sympathy I KILLED
I need to find a meaning
I'm useless, I'M USELESS
Trapped inside my own web

Whatever you say
Whatever you say
Whatever you say

Bring me a light
Make my life worth something more
Show me a light
Bring a light

Bring me a light
Make my life worth something more
Show me a light
Bring a light

When I'm alone
I stare at nothingness
Painful silence
Painful silence kills

Bring me a light
Make my life worth something more
Show me a light
Bring a light
[repeat]

Whatever you say
Whatever you say

Bring me a light
Make my life worth something more
Show me a light
Bring a light

Enya - Flora's Secret

Lovers in the long grass
look above them
only they can see
where the clouds are going
only to discover
dust and sunlight
ever make the sky so blue

Afternoon is hazy
river flowing
all around the sounds
moving closer to them
telling them the story
told by flora
dreams they never knew

Silver willows
tears from Persia
those who come
from a far-off island
winter Chanterelle lies
under cover
Glory-of-the-sun in blue

Some they know as passion
some as freedom
some they know as love
and the way it leaves them
summer snowflake
for a season
when the sky above is blue
when the sky above is blue

Lying in the long grass
close beside her
giving her the name
of the one the moon loves
this will be the day she
will remember
when she knew his heart
was

loving in the long grass
close beside her
whispering of love
and the way it leaves them
lying in the long grass
in the sunlight
they believe it's true love
and from all around them
flora's secret
telling them of love
and the way it breathes
and
looking up from eyes of
amaranthine
they can see the sky
is blue
knowing that their love
is true
dreams they never knew
and the sky above is blue

He do the song about the knife
He do the walk, he do the walk of life

Hand me down my walking shoes
Here comes Johnny with the power and glory
Backbeat the talkin' blues

There's just a song in all the trouble and the strife
You do the walk, you do the walk of life

Feeling scared today
Write down "i am ok"
A hundred times the doctors say

I am ok
I am ok
Im not ok

Skin is crawling off
Mopping the sweaty drops
Sticking around for this ****

Another day
Another day
Not another day

Pink pill feels good
Finally understood
Take me in your warm, embrace
I am trying

"We've Got A Bigger Problem Now" Dead Kennedys

Last call for alcohol.
Last call for your freedom of speech.
Drink up. Happy hour is now enforced by law.
Don't forget our house special, it's called a Trickie Dickie Screwdriver.
It's got one part Jack Daniels, two parts purple Kool-Aid,
and a jigger of formaldehyde
from the jar with Hitler's brain in it we got in the back storeroom.
Happy trails to you. Happy trails to you.

I am Emperor Ronald Reagan
Born again with fascist cravings
Still, you made me president

Human rights will soon go 'way
I am now your Shah today
Now I command all of you
Now you're going to pray in school
I'll make sure they're Christian too

California Uber alles
Uber alles California

Ku Klux Klan will control you
Still you think it's natural
Nigger knockin' for the master race
Still you wear the happy face

You closed your eyes, can't happen here
Alexander Haig is near
Vietnam won't come back you say
Join the army or you will pay

California Uber alles
Uber alles California

Yeah, that's it. Just relax.
Have another drink, few more pretzels, little more MSG.
Turn on those Dallas Cowboys on your TV.
Lock your doors. Close your mind.
It's time for the two-minute warning.

Welcome to 1984
Are you ready for the third world war?!?
You too will meet the secret police
They'll draft you and they'll jail your niece

You'll go quitely to boot camp
They'll shoot you dead, make you a man
Don't you worry, it's for a cause
Feeding global corporations' claws

Die on our brand new poison gas
El Salvador or Afghanistan
Making money for President Reagan
And all the friends of President Reagan

Husker Du - 59 Times The Pain

The most intense of burning hells
Blasting expectations into smithereens
Never feeling normal, can't accept the truth
Resign myself to hating it, I hate it all

Can't say that I don't like it
Because the words won't come out right
All I feel is bitter, and it won't make it better

59 times the pain, I could never be like you
59 times the pain, I could never be like you
59 times the pain

Never figured out eating 3 meals a day
When the people sit in their broken-down homes
Look at the photos from different eras gone by
Shows the changes, and I hate them all

Don't want to live with myself
Can't live with what goes on
All I see is the humiliation
I wish it was gone

Husker Du - Crystal

Avalanche looms overhead
Airplane flies overhead
Important man sits by the window
Sucked out of the first class window
Images run by, thousand miles an hour
But the time seems far away
Folding clothes in a folding closet
Folding money in a resume

Time to let off some pressure
Time to let off some steam
All your notebooks get thrown away
And you start your diary clean
Crystal glass lined up in a row
Watched over by the G.I. Joes
Sugar in your coffee doesn't taste quite right
Feeling the effects for a hundred thousand nights

When civilization falls in its grave
Technology throws on the dirt
You realize the finest things in life
Are the ones that can never be hurt

Shatters your brain in a million tiny pieces
The sounds you hear aren't coming out right
You think it might be mystic, you think I might be cryptic
The crystal in your china case is breaking in a million tiny pieces

Love
Love is strange
Lot of people
Take it for a game
Once you get it
You never wanna quit
After you've had it
You're in an awful fix

Many people
Don't understand
They think loving
Is money in the hand
Your sweet loving
Is better than a kiss
When you leave me
Sweet kisses I miss

Sylvia
Yes, Mickey
How do you call your lover boy
Come here, lover boy
And if he doesn't answer
Oh lover boy
And if he still doesn't answer
I simply say
Baby, oh baby
My sweet baby, you're the one
Baby, oh baby
My sweet baby, you're the one

I know your life on earth was troubled
And only you could know the pain
You werent afraid to face the devil
You were no stranger to the rain

Chorus:
Go rest high on that mountain
Son, you work on earth is done
Go to heaven a shoutin
Love for the father and son

Oh, how we cried the day you left us
We gathered round your grave to grieve
I wish I could see the angels faces
When they hear your sweet voice sing

Go rest high on that mountain
Son, you work on earth is done
Go to heaven a shoutin
Love for the father and son

Blur - Out of Time
Where's the love song
Set us free
Too many people down
Everything turning the wrong way round
And I don't know what love will be
But if we start dreaming now
Lord knows we'll never clear the clouds

And you've been so busy lately
That you haven't found the time
To open up your mind
And watch the world spinning
Gently out of time

Feel the sunshine on your face
It's in a computer now
Gone are the future
Way out in space

And you've been so busy lately
That you haven't found the time
To open up your mind
And watch the world spinning
Gently out of time

And you've been so busy lately
That you haven't found the time
To open up your mind
And watch the world spinning
Gently out of time

Tell me I'm not dreaming
But are we out of time?
We're out of time
Out of time
Out of time

Dumb by Nirvana

I'm not like them
but I can pretend
The sun is gone
but I have a light
The day is done
but I'm having fun
I think I'm dumb
or maybe just happy...
Think I'm just happy
Think I'm just happy
Think I'm just happy

My heart is broke
but I have some glue
Help me inhale
and mend it with you
We'll float around
and hang out on clouds
Then we'll come down
and have a hangover...
Have a hangover
Have a hangover
Have a hangover

Skin the sun
Fall asleep
Wish away
The soul is cheap
Lesson learned
Wish me luck
Soothe the burn
Wake me up...

I'm not like them
but I can pretend
The sun is gone
but I have a light
The day is done
but I'm having fun
I think I'm dumb
or maybe just happy
Think I'm just happy...
Think I'm just happy
Think I'm just happy

I think I'm dumb

DOCTOR MY EYES

Doctor, my eyes have seen the years
And the slow parade of fears without crying
Now I want to understand
I have done all that I could
To see the evil and the good without hiding
You must help me if you can
Doctor, my eyes
Tell me what is wrong
Was I unwise to leave them open for so long
'Cause I have wandered through this world
And as each moment has unfurled
I've been waiting to awaken from these dreams
People go just where there will
I never noticed them until I got this feeling
That it's later than it seems
Doctor, my eyes
Tell me what you see
I hear their cries
Just say if it's too late for me
Doctor, my eyes
Cannot see the sky
Is this the prize for having learned how not to cry

------------------------------------------------------------------

TENDER IS THE NIGHT


Between the darkness on the street
And the houses filling up with light
Between the stillness in my heart
And the roar of the approaching night
Somebody's calling after somebody
Somebody turns the corner out of sight
Looking for somebody
Somewhere in the night
Tender is the night
When you hold your baby tight
Tender are the motions, tender is the night
Between a life that we expected
And the way it's always been
I can't walk back in again
After the way we fight
When just outside there are people laughing
Living lives we used to lead
Chasing down the love they need
Somewhere in the night
Tender is the night
And the benediction of the neon light
Tender are the hunters, tender is the night
You're gonna want me tonight
When you're ready to surrender
Forget about who's right
When you're ready to remember
It's another world at night
When you're ready to be tender
Tender, tender tender...
And in the hard light of an angry sun
No one remembers what was said or done
Tender are the words they choose
You win, I win, we lose
Tender
Tender is the night
Tender
The benediction of the neon light
Tender
Tender are the hunters
Tender is the night
When they hold each other tight
Tender
Tender are the undercover
Tender
The stranger and the secret lover
Tender
Tender are the motions
Tender is the night
When you hold your baby tight
Tender, tender tender...

Fire Inc - Tonight Is What It Means (To Be Young)
Lyrics by Jim Steinman

I got a dream 'bout an angel on the beach
And the perfect waves are starting to come
His hair is flying out in ribbons of gold
And his touch has got the power to stun.

I got a dream 'bout an angel in the forest
Enchanted by the edge of a lake
His body's glowing in the jewels of light
And the earth below him's starting to shake.

But I don't see any angels in this city
I don't hear any holy choirs sing
And if I can't get an angel
I can still get a boy
And a boy would be the next best thing
The next best thing to an angel
A boy would be the next best thing.

I got a dream 'bout a boy in a castle
And he's dancing like a cat on the stairs
He's got the fire of a prince in his eyes
And the thunder of a drum in his ears.

I got a dream 'bout a boy on a star
Looking down upon the rim of the world
He's there all alone and he's dreaming of someone like me
I'm not an angel but at least I'm a girl.

I got a dream when the darkness is over
We'll be lying in the rays of the sun
But it's only a dream and tonight it's for real
You'll never know what it means
But you'll know how it feels
It's gonna be over
(Over)
Before you know it's begun
(Before you know it's begun)
It's all we've really got

Tonight!
Stop your crying, hold on
Tonight!
Before you know it, it's gone
Tonight!
Tonight is what it means to be young
Tonight is what it means to be young.

Let the revels begin
Let the fires be started
We're dancing for the restless and the broken hearted
Let the revels begin
Let the fires be started
We're dancing for the desperate and the broken hearted

Let the revels begin
Let the fires be started
We're dancing for the restless and the broken hearted
Let the revels begin
Let the fires be started
We're dancing for the desperate and the broken hearted.
Say a prayer in the darkness for the magic to come
Cos no matter what it seems tonight is what it means to be young

Tonight is what it means to be young
Before you know it, it's gone
Tonight is what it means to be young
Before you know it, it's gone.
I got a dream when the darkness is over
We'll be lying in the rays of the sun

But it's only a dream and tonight it's for real
You'll never know what it means
But you'll know how it feels
It's gonna be over
(Over)
Before you know it's begun
(Before you know it's begun)
It's all we've really got

Tonight!
Stop your crying, hold on
Tonight!
Before you know it, it's gone

Tonight!
Tonight is what it means to be young
Tonight is what it means to be young.

Let the revels begin
Let the fires be started
We're dancing for the restless and the broken hearted
Let the revels begin
Let the fires be started
We're dancing for the desperate and the broken hearted
Let the revels begin
Let the fires be started
We're dancing for the restless and the broken hearted
Let the revels begin
Let the fires be started
We're dancing for the desperate and the broken hearted.

Say a prayer in the darkness for the magic to come
Cos no matter what it seems tonight is what it means to be young
Tonight is what it means to be young
No matter what it seems

Tonight is what it means to be young
The things they say and then the things they do
Nothing's gonna stop us if our aim is true.
The things they say and then the things they do
Nothing's gonna stop us if our aim is true.

Long As I Can See The Light
Creedence Clearwater Revival



Put a candle in the window
'cause I feel I gotta move.
Thought I'm goin' goin'
I'll be comin home soon
long as I can see the light.

Pack my bag and let's get moving
'cause I'm bound to drift a while.
When I'm gone gone
you don't have to worry
long as I can see the light.

Guess I've got that travelin' bone
'cause this feeling won't leave alone.
But I won't won't
be losin' my way
long as I can see the light.

Granny

Hello, how are you doing today
I hope I find you feeling healthy
I'm So glad our paths crossed this time today
On our way into the night
I say its love thats hiding deep, deep down, inside us all
So maybe, we should let it up above from deep inside
Love , your tears they fall like rain, now tell me
Baby your hearts into a thousand pieces
Stop only the old and wise, with clouded eyes,
You can't see what I can't hide
Blindly throw my faith to the face
Of the next pretty girl to come my way
So here we are all of us stand around
We're leaning heavy on each other
Always wondering what is it lies behind
the worried eyes of one another
I Believe its love that's hiding there
in the shadows, in the darkness
Maybe we'll shed a little light and it will shine
Love when I approach, my tears that fall like rain as you know
Maybe, my heart's into a thousand pieces
Stop only old and wise, with clouded eyes
You can't see what I can see
Cause I blindly throw my faith to the face
Of the next good thing that comes my way
I say its love so share it out
Share it far and share it ever
Maybe things are better world and they could be ours
Love as I approach the tears they fall like rain you tell me
Baby your heart's into a thousand peices dashed
Stop
Only old and wise with clouded eyes
You can see what I can
I blindly throw my faith
To the face of the next good thing to come my way
------------------------------------------------------------------

Jimi Thing

You've got your ball
you've got your chain
Tied to me tight tie me up again
Who's got their claws
in you my friend
Into your heart I'll beat again
Sweet like candy to my soul
Sweet you rock
and sweet you roll
Lost for you I'm so lost for you
You come crash into me
And i come into you,
I come into you
In a boys dream
In a boys dream
Touch your lips just so i know
In your eyes, love, it glows so
I'm bare-boned and crazy for you
When you come crash
into me, baby
And I come into you
In a boys dream
In a boys dream
If I've gone overboard
Then I'm begging you
to forgive me
In my haste
When I'm holding you so girl...
close to me
Oh and you come crash
into me, baby
And I come into you
Hack up your skirt a little more
and show the world to me
Hike up your skirt a little more
and show your world to me
In a boys dream...In a boys dream
Oh i watch you there
through the window
And i stare at you
You wear nothing but you
wear it so well
Tied up and twisted,
the way I'd like to be
For you, for me, come crash
into me,
crash into me
crash into me
crash into me
crash into me
I'm the king of the castle
You're the dirty rascle
Crash into me
Oh see you crash into me baby,
'Cause I am swimming in your seas
And in your ocean
And I feel your waves come and crash into me
Oh yes I see the waves come and crash into me
Oh yes I feel the waves come and crash into me
I will be your dixie chicken,
If you'll be my Tennessee lamb,
We can walk together
Down in Dixieland
Crash into me,
Crash into me
hey hey yeah
Crash into me
Crash into me
oh, and you come crash into me.

Sleep To Dream Her

I know I'll miss her later,
Wish I could bend my love to hate her,
Wish I could be her creator,
To twist her arms now,
She stares up at the stars when,
The stars fell from her hair then,
I bent down to collect them,
And then she was gone,
I sleep just to dream her,
I beg the night just to see her,
That my only love should be her,
Just to lie in her arms,
Oh I came there to find out,
Find out if she's made up her mind ohh,
My arms are all tied up,
To me she was blind.
This space between us
Where wingless dreams fall earless,
Will you not bear me witness,
With your back to me now,
It seems so unnerving,
Still somehow deserving,
That she could hold my heart so tightly,
And still not see me here.
Oh I sleep just to dream her,
Beg the night just to see her,
That my only love should be her,
Just to lie in her arms,
I know I'll miss her later,
Wish I could bend my love to hate her,
Wish I could be her creator,
To be the light in her eyes.

Bell Bottom Blues
Eric Clapton


Bell bottom blues, you made me cry.
I don't want to lose this feeling.
And if I could choose a place to die
It would be in your arms.


Do you want to see me crawl across the floor to you?
Do you want to hear me beg you to take me back?
I'd gladly do it because
I don't want to fade away.
Give me one more day, please.
I don't want to fade away.
In your heart I want to stay.


It's all wrong, but it's all right.
The way that you treat me baby.
Once I was strong but I lost the fight.
You won't find a better loser.


Chorus

Chorus

Bell bottom blues, don't say goodbye.
I'm sure we're gonna meet again,
And if we do, don't you be surprised
If you find me with another lover.


Chorus

I don't want to fade away.
Give me one more day please.
I don't want to fade away.
In your heart I long to stay.

Dream, when you're feeling blue
Dream, that's the thing to do
Just watch the smoke rising rise in the air
You'll find your share of memories there

So dream when the day is through
Dream, and they might come true
Things never are as bad as they seem
So dream, dream, dream (Repeat)

Gimme Back My Bullets:
Lynarnd Skynard
Lyrics: (Allen Collins -- Ronnie Vanzant)


Life is so strange when its changin, yes indeed
Well Ive seen the hard times and the pressures been on me
But I keep on workin like the workin man do
And Ive got my act together, gonna walk all over you

Gimme back my bullets
Put em back where they belong
Aint foolin around cause I done had my fun
Aint gonna see no more damage done
Gimme back my bullets

Sweet talkin people done ran me out of town
And I drank enough whiskey to float a battleship around
But Im leavin this game one step ahead of you
And you will not hear me cry cause I do not sing the blues

Gimme back my bullets
Put em back where they belong
Aint foolin around cause I done had my fun
Aint gonna see no more damage done
Gimme back, gimme back my bullets
Oh, put em back... where they belong

Been up and down since I turned seventeen
Well Ive been on top, and then it seems I lost my dream
But I got it back, Im feelin better everyday
Tell all those pencil pushers, better get out of my way

Gimme back my bullets
Put em back where they belong
Aint foolin around, cause I done had my fun
Aint gonna see no more damage done
Gimme back, gimme back my bullets
Oh put em back where they belong
Gimme back my bullets

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

Note: Apparently this wasnt the original verson of House of the Rising Sun. I found alternate lyrics that I didn't know about.


House Of The Rising Sun
ANIMALS


There is a house in New Orleans, they call the "Rising Sun",
and it's been the ruin of many a poor boy,
and God, I know, I'm one.

My mother was a tailor, she sewed my new blue jeans,
my father was a gambling man,
down in New Orleans.

Now the only thing a gambler needs,
is a suitcase and chum
and the only time, he'll be satisfied, is when
he's on a drum.

Oh mother, tell your children,
Not to do what I have done
Spend your lives in sin and misery,
In the "House of the Rising Sun"

Well, now one foot on the platform,
The other foot on the train,
I'm going back to New Orleans,
To wear that ball and chain.

Well, there is a house in New Orleans,
They call the "Rising Sun",
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy,
And God, I know, I'm one.

How I Spent My Summer Vacation
The Ataris



got out of bed today
I'm alive, what can I say?
I'm really happy to be
somewhere with someone who makes me happy.

I took the bus downtown.
all day long I walked around
I looked at all the sights
and thought about how lucky I am now.

I was sick of feeling down.
so I gave it all away.
2000 miles from all I know
and so much better off today.
I'm still waiting for the world.
to come crashing down again.
and I'm still waiting for someone
to call me up and tell me your dead.
sometimes I wonder what was
going through your head
I don't know but I won't go there again.

you make me smile so wide
when I look into your eyes.
when your not around
you know your somewhere stuck inside my mind.

so here I am today
I was lost for 20 years
I found clarity
the day I took a chance
and moved away.

Got spare money?

Innocent by Fuel

Satan, you know where I lie
Gently I go, into that good night

All our lives get complicated
Search for pleasure's overrated
Never armed our souls
For what the future would hold
when we were innocent
Innocent

Angels, lend me your might
Forfeit all my lives to get just one right

All those colors long since faded
All our smiles are confiscated
Never were we told
that we'd be bought and sold
when we were innocent
Yeah

Yeah this prayer is for me tonight
This far down that line
And still ain't got it right

Oh and while confessions not yet stated
Our next sin is contemplated
Never did we know
What the future would hold
Or that we'd be bought and sold
No
when we were innocent

The Boys Are Back In Town
Thin Lizzy


Guess who just got back today
Them wild-eyed boys that had been away
Haven't changed that much to say
But man, I still think those cats are crazy

They were askin' if you were around
How you was, where you could be found
Told 'em you were livin' downtown
Drivin' all the old men crazy

The boys are back in town
(The boys are back in town)

The boys are back in town
(The boys are back in town again)

You know that chick that used to dance a lot
Every night she'd be on the floor, shakin' what she got
When I say she was cool she was red hot
I mean, she was steamin'

And that time over at Johnny's place,
Well, this chick got up and she slapped Johnny's face
Man, we just fell about the place
If that chick don't wanna know, forget her

The boys are back in town
(The boys are back in town)

The boys are back in town
(The boys are back in town)

The boys are back in town
(The boys are back in town)
The boys are back in town
(The boys are back in town again)

Spread the word around
Guess who's back in town

Just spread the word around

Friday night they'll be dressed to kill
Down at Dino's Bar 'n' Grill
The drink will flow and the blood will spill
And if the boys wanna fight, you better let 'em

That jukebox in the corner blastin' out my favorite song
The nights are getting longer, it won't be long
Won't be long till the summer comes
Now that the boys are here again

The boys are back in town
(The boys are back in town)

The boys are back in town
(The boys are back in town)

The boys are back in town
(The boys are back in town)
Spread the word around
The boys are back in town
(The boys are back in town again)

The boys are back in town again
Been hangin' down at Dino's
The boys are back in town again
