Kindness in your eyes
I guess you heard me cry
You smiled at me like Jesus to a child
I'm blessed I know
Heaven sent and heaven stole
You smiled at me like Jesus to a child
And what have I learned from all this pain
I thought I never feel the same about anyone or anything again
But now I know
Chorus:
When you find a love
When you know that it exists
Then the lover that you miss
Will come to you on these cold, cold nights
When you've been loved
When you know it holds such bliss
Then the lover that you kissed
Will comfort you when there's no hope in sight
Sadness in my eyes
No one guessed and no one tried
You smiled at me like Jesus to a child
Loveless and cold
With your last breath you saved my soul
You smiled at me like Jesus to a child
And what have I learned from all these tears
I've waited for you all those years
Then just when it began he took your love away
But I still say
Chorus
So the words you couldn't say
I'll sind them for you
And the love we would have made
I'll make it for two
For every single memory
Has become a part of me
You will always be my love
Well I've been loved so I know just what love is
And the lover thet I kissed is always by my side
Oh the lover I still miss... was Jesus to a child
Star People
Star people
Counting your money till you soul turns green
Star people
Counting the cost of your desire to be seen
I do not count myself among you
I may be living in a dream
It's just seem to many of you
Can't help but hope
There's a difference between... you and me
You're a star
( I'm talking to you )
You're a star
Maybe your mama gave you up boy
( It's the same old same old )
Maybe your daddy didn't love you enough girl
Star people
Never forget your secret safe with me
Just look at all wonderful people
Trying to forget they had to pay for what you see
It's a deam
With a nightmare stuck in the middle
But where would you be
Without all of that attention
You'd die
I'd die
We'd die wouldn't we
( Well wouldn't we )
Big, big star
Sould go far
Talk about your mother
Talk about your father
Talk about the people
Who have made you what you are
Talk about your teacher
The bully boy who beat you
Talk about the people who have paid
For that new sports car
Did you get off on a bad foot, baby
Do you have a little tale to tell
Is that why you're a star ?
Is that what makes a star ?
Nothing comes for nothing, baby
That fame and fortune's heaven sent
And who gives a f*** about your probems, darling
When you can pay the rent
How much is enough ?
Faith
Well I guess it would be nice
If I could touch your body
I know not everybody
Has got a body like you
But I've got to think twice
Before I give my heart away
And I know all the games you play
Because I play them too
Oh but I
Need some time off from that emotion
Time to pick my heart up off the floor
And when that love comes down
Without devotion
Well it takes a strong man baby
But I'm showing you the door
'Cause I gotta have faith...
Baby
I know you're asking me to stay
Say please, please, please, don't go away
You say I'm giving you the blues
Maybe
You mean every word you say
Can't help but think of yesterday
And another who tied me down to loverboy rules
Before this river
Becomes an ocean
Before you throw my heart back on the floor
Oh baby I reconsider
My foolish notion
Well I need someone to hold me
But I'll wait for something more
Yes I've gotta have faith..
Praying for Time
These are the days of the open hand
They might just be the last
Look around now
These are the days of the beggars and the choosers
This is the year of the hungry man
Whose place is in the past
Hand in hand with ignorance
And legitimate excuses
The rich declare themselves poor
And most of us are not sure
If we have too much
But we'll take our chances
'Cause God's stopped keeping score
I guess somewhere along the way
He must have let us all out to play
Turned his back and all God's children
Crept out the back door
And it's hard to love, there's so much to hate
Hanging on to hope
When there is no hope to speak of
And the wounded skies above say it's much too much too late
Well maybe we should all be praying for time
These are the days of the empty hand
Oh you hold on to what you can
And charity is a coat you wear twice a year
This is the year of the guilty man
Your television takes a stand
And you find that what was over there is over here
So you scream from behind your door
Say what's mine is mine and not yours
I may have too much but I'll take my chances
'Cause God's stopped keeping score
And you cling to the things they sold you
Did you cover your eyes when they told you
That he can't come back
'Cause he has no children to come back for
It's hard to love there's so much to hate
Hanging on to hope when there is no hope to speak of
And the wounded skies above say it's much too late
So maybe we should all be praying for time
Freedom '90
I won't let you down
I will not give you up
Gotta have some faith in the sound
It's the one good thing that I've got
I won't let you down
So please don't give me up
Because I would really, really love to stick around
Heaven knows I was just a young boy
Didn't know what I wanted to be
I was every little hungry schoolgirl's pride and joy
And I guess it was enough for me
To win the race? A prettier face!
Brand new clothes and a big fat place
On your rock and roll TV
But today the way I play the game is not the same
No way
Think I'm gonna get me some happy
I think there's something you should know
I think it's time I told you so
There's something deep inside of me
There's someone else I've got to be
Take back your picture in a frame
Take back your singing in the rain
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
All we have to do now
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see
Is that I don't belong to you
And you don't belong to me
Freedom
You've gotta give for what you take
Freedom
You've gotta give for what you take
Heaven knows we sure had some fun boy
What a kick just a buddy and me
We had every big shot good-time band on the run boy
We were living in a fantasy
We won the race
Got out of the place
I went back home got a brand new face
For the boys on MTV
But today the way I play the game has got to change
Oh yeah
Now I'm gonna get myself happy
I think there's something you should know
I think it's time I stopped the show
There's something deep inside of me
There's someone I forgot to be
Take back your picture in a frame
Don't think that I'll be back again
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
All we have to do now
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see
Is that I don't belong to you
And you don't belong to me
Freedom
You've gotta give for what you take
Freedom
You've gotta give for what you take
Well it looks like the road to heaven
But it feels like the road to hell
When I knew which side my bread was buttered
I took the knife as well
Posing for another picture
Everybody's got to sell
But when you shake your ass
They notice fast
And some mistakes were built to last
That's what you get
I say that's what you get
That's what you get for changing your mind
And after all this time
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes
Do not make the man
I'll hold on to my freedom
May not be what you want from me
Just the way it's got to be
Lose the face now
I've got to live
I Believe (When I Fall In Love It Will Be Forever)
Shattered dreams, Worthless years
Here am I incased inside a hallow shell
Life began, Then was done
Now I stare into a cold and empty well
Living sounds that greet our ears
The sights our eyes befall
We'll open up our merging hearts
And feel our empty souls
I believe when I fall in love with you it will be forever
I believe when I fall in love this time it will be forever
Without despair, we will share
And the joys of care will not be erased
What has been, must never end
The joys of caring will not be replaced
When the seeds of love are plentiful
They won't be hard to find
And the songs of love I sang to you
Will echo in my mind
Hey!
I believe when I fall in love with you it will be forever. I said.
I believe when I fall in love this time it will be forever.(x7)
You know god has answered my prayers
Won't you listen to me now
God's soul answered my prayers
Won't you listen to me now
God will answer all your prayers
Just ask him and God's soul will answer all your prayers
Oh come on and lets start and love
Your the woman I've been waiting for
Come on lets start and love
Your the woman that I adore
Don't you wanna (x3)
Fall in love with me baby
Don't you wanna (x3)
Fall in love with me this time, this time, this time
Oh, no no no
Don't you wanna fall
Don't you wanna fall in love
Oh, no no no
Yea
This time (x4)
O.K. I want you to sing this after me
It will be forever
It will be forever
Don't you wanna fall in love
Come on, Come on don't you wanna fall in love
With me forever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever
With me forever (x4)
Don't you wanna
Don't you wanna
Don't you wanna fall in love with me, baby, Yea!
Don't you wanna
Don't you wanna
Don't you wanna fall in love with me this time, this time, this time
Oh, no no no
Don't you wanna fall in
Don't you wanna fall in love
Oh, no no no. Oh!
Whoo!
I Can't Make You Love Me
Turn down the lights, turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head
Lay down with me, tell me no lies
Just hold me close, don't patronize
Don't patronize me
'Cause I can't make you love me If you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark in these final hours
I will lay down my heart, and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
And I can't make you love me
If you don't
I'll close my eyes and then I won't see
The love you do not feel, when you're holding me
Morning will come, and I'll do what's right
Just give me til then, to give up this fight
And I will give up this fight
And I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
And here in the dark in these lonely hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no, you won't
And I can't make you love me
If you don't.
Ain't no use in you trying
It's no good for me baby without love
All my tears, all these years, everything I believed in
Baby
Somebody to love
Each morning I get up I die a little
Can barely stand on my feet
Take a look in the mirror and cry
Lord, what you're doing to me
I have spent all my years in believing you
But I just can't get no relief, Lord!
Somebody, somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love?
I work hard every day of my life
I work till I ache my bones
At the end I take home my hard earned pay all on
My own-
I get down on my knees
And I start to pray
Till the tears run down from my eyes
Lord-somebody-somebody
Can anybody find me-somebody to love?
(He works hard)
Everyday-I try and I try and I try-
But everybody wants to put me down,
They say I`m goin` crazy
They say I got a lot of water in my brain
Got no common sense
I got nobody left to believe
Yeah-yeah yeah yeah
Oh, Lord
Somebody-somebody
Can anybody find me to love?
Got no feel, I got no rhythm
I just keep losing my beat
I`m ok,I`m alright
Ain`t gonna face no defeat
I just gotta get out of this prison cell
Someday I`m gonna be free, Lord!
Find me somebody to love
Somebody, somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love?
