London Rain [Nothing Heals Me Like You Do]

I'm coming home to you
I'm alive, I'm a mess
I can't wait to get home to you
to get warm and undressed
There've been changes beyond my dreams
Everybody wants me to sing
There've been changes beyond my grasp
Things I'm sinking in

So keep me in your bed all day
Nothing heals me like you do

And when somebody knows you well
Well, there's no comfort like that
And when somebody needs you
Well, there's no drug like that

And when I'm home, curled in your arms
And I'm safe again
I'll close my eyes and sleep
to the sound of London Rain

Nothing falls like London Rain
Nothing heals me like you do
Nothing falls like London Rain
Nothing heals me like you do

Have a Little Faith in Me

When the road gets dark
And you can no longer see
Just let my love throw a spark
And have a little faith in me

And when the tears you cry
Are all you can believe
Just give these loving arms a try
And have a little faith in me
And

CHORUS:
Have a little faith in me
Have a little faith in me
Have a little faith in me
Have a little faith in me

When your secret heart
Cannot speak so easily
Come here darlin'
From a whisper start
To have a little faith in me

And when your back's against the wall
Just turn around and you will see
I will catch, I will catch your fall baby
Just have a little faith in me

REPEAT CHORUS

SUNG OVER FADE:
Well, I've been loving you for such a long time girl
Expecting nothing in return
Just for you to have a little faith in me
You see time, time is our friend
'Cause for us there is no end
And all you gotta do is have a little faith in me
I said I will hold you up, I will hold you up
Your love gives me strength enough
So have a little faith in me

(Also covered by Joe Cocker in the album "Have a Little Faith" and by Jewel in the "Phenomenon" soundtrack.)

"Sway"

Don't stray don't ever go away
I should be much too smart for this
You know it gets the better of me
Sometimes when you and I collide
I fall into an ocean of you
Pull me out in time
Don't let me drown
Let me down
I say it's all because of you
And here I go losing my control
I'm practising your name
So I can say it to your face
It doesn't seem right to look you in the eye
Let all the things you mean to me come tumbling out my mouth
Indeed it's time tell you why I say it's infinitely true
Say you'll stay don't come and go like you do
Sway my way yeah I need to know all about you
And there's no cure no way to be sure
Where everything's turned inside out
But still in so much doubt
It makes me so tired I feel so uninspired
My head is battling with my heart
My logic has been torn apart
And now it's all so sour
Cause sweets in every afternoon
Say you'll stay don't come and go like you do
Sway my way yeah I need to know all about you
Say you'll stay don't come and go like you do
Sway my way yeah I need to know all about you
It's all because of you
It's all because of you
Now it all turns sour
Cause sweets in every afternoon
It's time to tell you why I say it's infinitely true
Say you'll stay don't come and go like you do
Sway my way yeah I need to know all about you
Say you'll stay don't come and go like you do
Sway my way yeah I need to know all about you
It's all because of you
It's all because of you
It's all because of you

"Get 'Em Outta Here"

Well I walked outside into a sunny day
called some friends to back my play
went downtown to taste a few
then over to the coast
to see what kind of trouble we could get into
what trouble we could get into (3x)
in sweet home San Diego
now over to p.b. the tanning ladies
San Diego girls they drive me crazy
hooked up on a number or two
I'll call 'em later
to see what kind of trouble we could get into
what trouble we could get into (3x)
now all of the bad times
get 'em outta here
to the bum with the cheap wine
get 'em outta here
to the perps of the hate crimes
get 'em outta here
because the owner of a calm hand he is the real man
punks on the get low
get 'em outta here
to the fools with their fake gold
get 'em outta here
to the San Diego po po
get 'em outta here (2x)
now I called up zing to hit some spots
bought a couple of beers to chase the shots
pacers, platinum until two
then over to the vu to see what kind of trouble we can get into
what trouble we could get into (3x)
to the nines in the front row
get 'em outta here
to the swollen tongue coke ho
get 'em outta here
to the watered down drinks low
get 'em outta here
because unless it is a stiff trip
you get no tip
filly in the peep booth
get 'em outta here
you got the tweeker with the one tooth
get 'em outta here
say poppa on the eighty proof
get 'em outta here (2x)
now back home to find my bed
i gotta cool buzz chillin' inside my head
but just before the sun breaks through
i choke a little laugh and think about
the trouble that we get into (4x)
to the busta with the hippy crack
get 'em outta here
to the gold chain hair backs
get 'em outta here
to the locs with the swag sacks
get 'em outta here
cause unless you got the kind nugs
you get no love
wannabe pornstars
get 'em outta here
to the toughs that are so hard
get 'em outta here
granny in her sports car
get 'em outta here (2x)
to the label with the crook deals
get 'em outta here
to the bands that play with no feel
get 'em outta here
to the sailor in the high heels
get 'em outta here
got the stuffin' that bottleneck
talk about shipwreck
itchy faced crackheads
get 'em outta here
you got the flatulating fat chicks
get 'em outta here
you got to blast all hypocrites
get 'em outta here (2x)

"Kiss the Rain"

Hello
Can you hear me?
Am I gettin' through to you?

Hello
Is it late there?
There's a laughter on the line
Are you sure you're there alone?

Cause I'm
Tryin' to explain
Somethin's wrong
Ya just don't sound the same

Why don't you
Why don't you
Go outside
Go outside

Kiss the rain
Whenever you need me
Kiss the rain
Whenever I'm gone, too long.

If your lips
Feel lonely and thirsty
Kiss the rain
And wait for the dawn.

Keep in mind
We're under the same sky
And the nights
As empty for me, as for you
If ya feel
You can't wait till morinin'
Kiss the rain
Kiss the rain
Kiss the rain

Hello
Do you miss me?
I hear you say you do
But not the way I'm missin' you

What's new?
How's the weather?
Is it stormy where you are?
Cause I'm so close but it feels like you're so far
Oh would it mean anything
If you knew
What I'm left imagining
In my mind
In my mind
Would you go
Would you go
Kiss the rain

And you'd fall over me
Think of me
Think of me
Think of me
Only me
Kiss the rain
Whenever I'm gone too long
If your lips
Feel lonely and thirsty
Kiss the rain
and wait for the dawn

Keep in mind
We're under the same skies
And the nights
As empty for me, as for you

If you feel
You can't wait till morning

Kiss the rain
Kiss the rain
Kiss the rain
Kiss the rain
Kiss the rain
Oooooohhhhh
Kiss the rain
Oooooohhhhh
Kiss the rain

Hello
Can ya hear me?
Can ya hear me?
Can ya hear me?

"Save Tonight"

Go on and close the curtains
'cause all we need is candlelight
You and me and the bottle of wine
and hold you tonight

Well, we know I'm going away
And how I wish, I wish it weren't so
so take this wine and drink with me
let's delay our misery...

Save tonight
fight the break of dawn
Come tomorrow
Tomorrow I'll be gone

There's a log on the fire
and it burns like me for you
Tomorrow comes with one desire..
to take me away

It ain't easy to say goodbye
darling please don't start to cry
'cause girl you know I've got to go
and Lord I wish it wasn't so

[chorus]

Tomorrow comes to take me away
I wish that I, that I could stay
but girl you know I've got to go, oh
and Lord I wish it wasn't so

[chorus]
