chorus
And the river cried, 'coz I lost your love
The river cried, aaaaahhhh
The river cried, for my lonely soul
The river cried, you were the only one that really knew me
You were the only one in whom I confide
And hearing this... the River Cried
Oh . . .
I say myself today, through these gray lonely streets
Did you have to leave this town or did you just have to leave me?
All these questions in my mind
I didn't see the signs,
The river keeps flowing, I can't keep going
Waiting for you too return, my pride
chorus 3x
chorus:
He needs something to believe in
He needs something to believe in
All he ever wanted was to get away
Little sister's getting serious with a fella nearly twice her age
And she's aiming to move in with him
As soon as they can find a place
But there's no getting through to her, there's no other way
You can't learn from mistakes that somebody else made ...
chorus
Caught in the void of no hope and no choice
it's a nobody wins situation
What can they do? - it's a catch 22
It's a breakdown in communication
Little wonder they're confused no wonder we misunderstand
Little wonder there's a wind of change blowing through the land,
Nobody's guilty ... it's a sign of the times
But we won't see the future 'til we open our eyes
We need something to believe in
(Something to Believe In)
We need something to believe in
(Something to Believe In)
We need something to Believe In
(Something to Believe In)
We need something to believe in
All we ever wanted was to get away
Multi-colored sweaters
That moths have eaten holes
A paire of breaded mocassins with worn out soles
Boots were made for walking
Winds were blowing change
Boys fall in the jungle
As I Came of Age
Black and white TV
With a broken 12 - inch screen
Dylan's highway 61
And Jackie's love machine
I reread your letters and again
I cry great tears
Light comes to the surface
Even after all these years
Oh, it feels so good to have you around
I feel the walls come tumbling down
I'm ready to change, ready to feel
To be revealed
Take my life, in your hands
Take my love, be my man
I'm tired of all the lonely nights
I need someone to hold me in the candlelight
Take my life, I wanna live
I have so much more I want to give
I need a love that cuts like a knife
Take My Life
There's a river that's runnin' wild
Could I take you back when I was a child
I want to see just who I am
To be revealed
Take My hand, and lead me
With your love you can free me
Oh, take the chains, away from my heart
Take My Life
Hair like honey (SOME GIRLS!)
Have lips like wine (SOME GIRLS!)
Make lots of money (SOME GIRLS!)
Some legends in their own time
Some legends in their own time
Some girls make front page news
Some girls really pay their dues
We'll turn your head round and round
Get on your knees - say "baby please!"
But you can't keep us down
Some girls are mothers and wives
And they dont' have to apologize
We don't beg, borrow or steal
We'll paint the town if we don't
Drown in sex appeal
It felt just like old times
When you were by my side
I could see your love shine through
Brown Eyes
Tenderly, you were kissing me
And I held you so tight
And you promised me, forever
As we loved into the night
You may be a dream
A dream that's passed me by
But I'll always dream of you
Brown Eyes
Love, love changes everything: days are longer, words mean more.
Love, love changes everything: pain is deeper than before.
Love will turn your world around, and that world will last forever.
Yes, love, love changes everything, brings you glory, brings you shame.
Nothing in the world will ever be the same.
Off into the world we go, planning futures, shaping years.
Love bursts in and suddenly all our wisdom disappears.
Love makes fools of everyone: all the rules we make are broken.
Yes, love, love changes everything: live or perish, in its flame.
Love will never ever let you be the same.
Love will never ever let you be the same.
Good morning starshine, you lead us along
My love and me as we sing
Our early morning singing song
Gliddy glup gloopy nibby nabby noopy la la la lo lo
Sabba sibby sabba nooby abba nabba le le lo lo
Tooby ooby walla nooby abba nabba
Early morning starshine
Good morning starshine,
There's love in yoru skies
Reflecting the sunlight
In my lover's eyes
Good morning starshine
so happy to be
My love and me as we sing
Our early morning song
Can you hear me?
Singing a song, humming a song, singing a song
Loving a song, laughing a song, singing the song
Sing the song, song the sing
Song song song sing sing sing sing song
Yeah, I heard a funny thing
Somebody said to me
You know that I could be in love, with almost everyone
I think that people are the greatest fun
And I will be alone again tonight, my dear
Yeah, I heard a funny thing
Somebody said to me
You know that I could be in love with almost everyone
I think that people are the greatest fun
And I will be alone again tonight, my dear
Yesterday, you stopped crying
Yesterday your old friend just walked on by
The friend that used to wake you up and
Make you think the world was going to end
Your old friend
I'm sure you know
The old love is ugly now
But no one wants to turn away
From something they think is still allowed
It's clear, that what you're thinking is
How many perfect loves are made
But you've got to believe in faith-healing
Cause everyone's afraid
Yesterday, you stopped, stopped crying
Yesterday your old friend walked on by
Yesterday, you stopped, stopped crying
Yesterday your old friend walked on by
Bowling Green folks treat you kind
They let you think your own mind
A man in Kentucky sure is lucky
In Bowling Green you walk your owl line
Kentucky sunshine makes the heart unfold
It warms the body and I know it touches the soul
Blue Grass is find. Kentucky owns my mind
The fields down in Bowling Green
Have the softest grass I've ever seen
A man in Kentucky sure is lucky
To lie down in Bowling Green
Bowling Green girls treat you right
They wear dresses cut country right
A man in Kentucky sure is lucky
If he's seen the Bowling Green light
Cause everybody wants a piece of you, you don't give much, but when you
do, you're nobody's friend, you're nobody's fool, tell me It must be tough
to be that cool ...
Another notch on your belt another new pair of shoes
Another sidewalk show, where did you get that suit?
Did you think I was waiting or were you just testing me?
You're gonna come up empty, come out angry
Come out alone, now you can't see it
Well I should be more forgiving there's a soul down there
I can hear it crying but I can't find it anywhere
'Cause everybody wants a piece of you, you don't give much
But when you do, you're nobody's friend, you're nobody's fool
Tell me,
It must be tough to be that cool
It must be tough to be that cool
It must be tough to be that cool
It must be tough to be that cool ......
From: As I came of age (1990).
