All my bags are packed I'm ready to go I'm standing here outside your door I hate to wake you up to say goodbye But the dawn is breakin' this early morn The taxi's waitin' he's blowin' his horn Alreaday I'm so lonesome I could cry
*So kiss me and smile for me Tell me that you'll wait for me Hold me like you'll never let me go Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane Don't know when I'll be back again Oh babe I hate to go
There's so many times I've let you down So many times I've played around I tell you now they don't mean a thing Every place I go I think of you Every song I sing I sing for you When I come back I'll wear your wedding ring
*Repeat
Now the time has come to leave you One more time let me kiss you Close your eyes, I'll be on my way Dream about the days to come When I won't have to leave alone About the time when I don't have to say
I used to carry the weight of the world and now all I wanna do is spread my wings and fly
I don't know why I was So afraid all the time Memories seemed To bother me My whole life
I used to carry the weight of the world and now all I wanna do is spread my wings and fly I used to carry the weight of the world and now all I wanna do is spread my wings and fly
I don't know why I was So ashamed Such a waste of time And I don't know Who I was trying to be, All those lies
I used to carry the weight of the world and now all I wanna do is spread my wings and fly I used to carry the weight of the world and now all I wanna do is spread my wings and fly
Ohhh and there's always something somebody right behind but we're not meant to be everything we're just a piece so spread your wings, ohh
I don't know why I was so afraid All the time
I used to carry the weight of the world and now all I wanna do is spread my wings and fly (repeat 3x) (repeat again 2x)
Ahhh There are places I remember, all my life Though some have changed, some forever, not for better Some have gone and some remain All these places have their moments With lovers and friends I still can recall Some are dead and some are living In my life I've loved them all
But of all these friends and lovers There is no one compares with you And these memories lose their meaning When I think of love, as something new Though I know I'll never lose affection For people and things that went before Know I'll often stop and think about them In my life I love you more
Though I know I'll never lose affection For people and things that went before Know I'll often stop and think about them In my life I love you more In my life I love you more
I used to carry the weight of the world and now all I wanna do is spread my wings and fly
I don't know why I was So afraid all the time Memories seemed To bother me My whole life
I used to carry the weight of the world and now all I wanna do is spread my wings and fly I used to carry the weight of the world and now all I wanna do is spread my wings and fly
I don't know why I was So ashamed Such a waste of time And I don't know Who I was trying to be, All those lies
I used to carry the weight of the world and now all I wanna do is spread my wings and fly I used to carry the weight of the world and now all I wanna do is spread my wings and fly
Ohhh and there's always something somebody right behind but we're not meant to be everything we're just a piece so spread your wings, ohh
I don't know why I was so afraid All the time
I used to carry the weight of the world and now all I wanna do is spread my wings and fly (repeat 3x) (repeat again 2x)
They say we're in a state of emergency So how come no one is panicking
Where were you when they wrote the news And how are oyu are you feeling blue
The paper doesn't cause Too much of a fuss Perhaps it's becuse it's not, it's not sad enough
Where were you when they wrote the news And how are oyu are you feeling blue
You've never seen the colour blue
Call me in the morning We'll go for toast and tea
Where were you when they wrote the news And how are oyu are you feeling blue
You've never seen the colour blue You've never seen the colour blue
We'll you've never
No you've never seen the colour Never seen the colour blue Never seen the colour blue Never seen the colour blue You've never seen the colour blue Oh no you've never seen the colour blue oh... You've never seen the colour blue
I could almost remember your face When I heard your voice today I could see your lips moving At the other end of the receiver
It was almost a very good bye But dial tones tend to make me cry I call back within moments You laugh and don't even ask why
That's what we do Can we do it until we die
You don't see me but I feel so exposed Each time there's a pause on the phone I wish there was another button to press So I could read your mind In heaven we won't have to call I'll be with you spring, summer and fall But for now, soon you'll be here And heal in my arms as the night goes by
That's what we do Can we do it until we die
So for now soon you'll be here And heal in my arms as the night goes by
Baby before you Well I was bad news In letting me love you I think I can get through
Oh baby before you I was so scared I was a train wreck waiting to happen On the way to nowhere
And now I think it's kind of funny that you say you love me You tell me that I'm crazy then you smile
And now I think I'll get through The end of the world Now I think I'll get through Being a girl Now I think I'll get through Anything Now I think I'll get through
Now honey around you I'm feeling so good 'Cause you picked me up out of the rough And you polished me up and made me brand new Now baby before you ho ho There was just a black hole Yah, I was beat down blacked out My darling you couldn't even know But ever since I met you on a cloudy Monday I can't believe how much I love the rain
And now I think I'll get through The end of the world And now I think I'll get through Life as a girl Now I think I'll get through Anything Now I think I'll get through
Ever since I met you on a cloudy Monday I can't believe how much I love the rain
And now I think I'll get through The end of the world And now I think I'll get through Life as a girl Now I think I'll get through Anything Now I think I'll get through
Oh oh... Oh oh... And now I think I'll get through Oh oh... And now I think I'll get through
They must mean business To say there's nothing worse Then to let your precious love child Leave the planet first
'Cause oh they've got to just let her go All the things that you swear you're gonna do Reservations on the next train to the moon Pack your things 'cause there ain't no time to lose And all the things you never
So I think we're gonna have to record her Sometimes against her will We're gonna keep her alive with black and whites Colour moving and still And then oh they've got to just let her go
All the things thats you swear you're gonna do Reservations on the next train to the moon Pack your things 'cause there ain't no time to lose
Let her go
All the things thats you swear you're gonna do Reservations on the next train to the moon Pack your things 'cause there ain't no time to lose
All the things thats you swear you're gonna do Reservations on the next train to the moon Pack your things 'cause there ain't no time to lose
You were searching for a soul Tearing yourself apart Just to become a whole oh You were walking down the road Only to find your reflection In the puddles below
Chorus Uh oh uou're soul searching I see that dangerous look in your eyes Uh oh you're soul searching But is a soul really worth your whole life
In these circles you seem to go Never finding the centre Never finding your way home And do you ever see yourself When you look in the mirror Or is it a reflection of everyone else
Chorus
There's a part of me that wants to hold you And tell you everything is gonna be OK And there's a part of me that Wants to shake you And tell you there's no such thing As a soul anyway
I see that dangerous look in your eyes Uh oh you're soul searching But is a soul really worth your whole life
Misery's turning my luck around Framed all the faces on my way down I don't have a reason, a reason to lie That dull pain is screaming to be left behind Oh...
It's never easy to see your past Unfold before you, the outcast You don't have a reason, a reason to cry Caterpillars turn into rare butterflies Oh...woa....
The little things we hide The little things inside Don't want to show them and I'll be alright Oh, oh...
Humility's easing my ego down The past holds the truth like a lost and found There's no need to worry, no need to be scared 'Cause little things will come along And life's never fair
No Oh, oh...
The little things we hide The little things inside I don't want to show them that I'll be alright Oh, oh...
Everything is gonna be Everything is alright
Everything is gonna be Everything is alright Is alright Is alright
The little things we hide The little things inside I don't want to show them that we'll be alright
The little things we hide The little things inside I don't want to show them that I'll be alright Oh, oh
Let me show you what I'm made of Good intentions are not enough To get me though today and this life. You're in the basement watching the TV, I'm on the second floor watching the ceiling. We sleep underneath the same big sky at night. I dream the same dream we can fly You can run from me You can hide form me But I am right beside you In this life. Let me tell you who you really are You're my comfort You're not a superstar I can reach up and bring you back down to the ground And give you everything you dream about You can run from me You can hide from me But I am right beside you In this life. I'll give you all the things that I never get Give you all I have and have no regret Take you to the places that I've never been Forgive you all the things that you cant forget Take away the pain with my healing hands Wash away your sins and set your spirit free You can run from me You can hide from me But I am right beside you In this life. Let me show you what I'm made of
Time, where did you go? Why did you leave me here alone? Wait, don't go so fast I'm missing the moments as they pass Now I've looked in the mirror and the worlds getting clearer So wait for me this time I'm down I'm down on my knees I'm begging for all your sympathy But you (I'm just an illusion) you don't seem to care (I wish that I could) You humble people everywhere (I don't mean to hurt you) Now I've looked in the mirror and the worlds getting clearer I'll take what you give me. Please know that I'm learning So wait for me this time I should've know better I shouldn't have wasted those days And afternoons and mornings I threw them all away Now this is my time I'm going to make this moment mine. (I shouldn't have wasted those days) I'll take what you give me. Please know that I'm learning I've looked in the mirror My world's getting clearer So wait for me this time
