How have you been, I haven't seen you for so long.
As strange as it seems, the memories of you linger on. Remember that day, my car broke down in the rain. Well all you could say, was let's kill time another way. We thought our love would do it. But then we seem to lose it, but we are doing fine. I hear you're doing fine, (doing fine, I hear you're doing fine) Through a friend of mine, (doing fine, I hear you're doing fine) You seem to be happy, you found someone who understands. Well how about me, yes I am still a single man. We thought our love would do it. But then we seem to lose it, but we are doing fine. I hear you're doing fine, (doing fine, I hear you're doing fine) Through a friend of mine, (doing fine, I hear you're doing fine) I hear, I hear you're doing fine, (doing fine, I hear you're doing fine) Through a friend of mine, (doing fine, I hear you're doing fine) It seems we're like two ships at sea that sail with different destinies, Only together for a while. Now you've got your life, and I've got mine. It's funny how things can change with time. Only together for a while. We thought our love would do it. But then we seem to lose it, but we are doing fine. I hear you're doing fine, (doing fine, I hear you're doing fine) Through a friend of mine, (doing fine, I hear you're doing fine) I hear, I hear you're doing fine I hear you're doing fine (doing fine, I hear you're doing fine) Through a friend of mine, (doing fine, I hear you're doing fine) I hear, I hear you're doing fine. We thought our love would do it, but then we seem to lose it. |

Sweet sugar, pumping through my veins. Every nerve is on a wire.
Sweet sugar, you say it's just a game, soon to be your one desire. When the devil holds your hand, then you know he's in command of temptation. Like the beauty of a rose, or a summer that will go, where's salvation. Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me. Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me. Sweet sugar, your world just tumbles down, how you hunger for illusion. Sweet sugar, will take more than you own, all you have is your confusion. You'll be standing in the rain. You'll be crying out in shame, for mercy. So you turn to every man, say you need a helping hand, don't desert me. Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me. Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me. Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me. I don't know what I've done with my life. I don't want to think of all this wasted time. I was in search of paradise, yet this seems a heavy price to pay. Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me. Won't you say a prayer, Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me. Won't you say a, Say a little prayer, say a little prayer. (repeat to fade) |

Aimlessly walking through a winter that's so bitterly cold,
Christmas is coming, all the stores are wrapped in the neon glow. But I don't feel festive, oh I've lost the woman I held so dear. I'm so reflective, as I think of all our happy years. I brush against a stranger so I turn to apologize. When I saw her with another man and a sparkle in her eyes. Does she love that man, the way that I'm loving her still. Does she love that man, for she has broken my will to survive. I walked to a cafe where I sat and stared at an empty wall. The waitress talked to me but I could not hear her words at all. The only sound that I could hear was the screaming of my soul. My world revolved around one single thing I wished to know. Does she love that man, the way that I'm loving her still. Does she love that man, for she has broken my will to survive. The weather was changing, snow began falling, The sky became dark like the mood of my heart. I watched other lovers sharing together. Their smiles and laughter were painful reminders. I seem to recapture one moment I held her. I made her swear that she'd always be there. But she left me sorrow and a fear of tomorrow, For soon as I wake there's a pain I can't shake in my heart. Does she love that man, the way that I'm loving her still. Does she love that man, for she has broken my will. Does she love him. Does she love him. Does she love him. Does she love that man. Does she love that man for she has broken my will. Does she love that man. Does she love him. Does she love that man. |

A painted lady sings a lullaby. A raindrop falls from an empty sky.
A steamboat's lying on a river bed. The captain smiles and his eyes are red. Mississippi water washing over me. Mississippi water washing over me. A lady's riding bareback on a horse. I know that Babylon must be her course. An old man's laughing at the dead of night, but I don't care if he is black or white. Mississippi water washing over me. Mississippi water washing over me. The summer heat burns the skin on my face, and the trees shimmer so in this quiet place. A bird up high sings a song that I know, and those sweet melodies fall down like snow. A crowd of people watch an empty stage. There's no performers but still they stay. Moonlight dances on a slide trombone. T he captain whistles as he wanders home. Mississippi water washing over me. Mississippi water washing over me. Mississippi water washing over me. Mississippi water washing over me. Mississippi water. Mississippi water. Mississippi water washing over me. (to fade) |

I see a coldness in your eyes like a winter's day.
You won't accept the compromise love brings your way. Perfection you see as your prize, but will the circle be unbroken. You can only learn to love when you understand, Accepting people as they are puts the key in hand. You may be looking at the stars but on earth you stand. Will the circle be unbroken. Will the circle be unbroken. Will it be unbroken. Loving you is loving your imperfection. In loving me just let me see I'm your inspiration. You're driven solely by a dream that can never be. You resign yourself to search, it's your destiny. You may be looking at the stars, but there's only me. Will the circle be unbroken. Will the circle be unbroken. Will it be unbroken. Loving you is loving your imperfection. In loving me just let me see I'm your inspiration. Will it be, will it be, will it be unbroken. Will it be, will it be, will it be unbroken. Will it be, will it be, will it be unbroken. Will it be, will it be, will it be unbroken. Loving you is loving your imperfection. In loving me just let me see I'm your inspiration. Loving you is loving your imperfection. In loving me just let me see I'm your inspiration. Will it be, will it be, will it be unbroken. Will it be, will it be, will it be unbroken. Will the circle be unbroken. |

There she lies, silent in slumber.
How she moves my soul in precious moments like these. The scent on her skin, makes me remember The wonders of a woman that are not always seen. My spirit to my lady belongs. I'll show my devotion in singing my song. Woman, woman, you are a treasure to me. Woman, woman, you shape my destiny. Evening brings a delicate sunlight, A warm and gentle glow bathes her body in gold. Some kind of magic, moves me inside. The mysteries of love we find, just seem to unfold. This shining moment left me so dazed, The force of my love made me so amazed. Woman, woman, you are a treasure to me. Woman, woman, you shape my destiny. The splendor of a raging sea, the peace of waters calm. All this beauty lies within the lady in my arms. The music of this strange event would move a man of stone. Once you know the taste of love, your hunger only grows. Woman, woman, you are a treasure to me. Woman, woman, you shape my destiny. |

There are certain times, when I feel there's something stirring in me.
Let's get back to basics with the clarity it brings, then maybe I will see. When waters run too high, or sun gets in my eyes, It's your name I will call, to catch me when I fall. It seems I look for comfort, like a child in its mother's arms, safe against the storm. A puzzle with no ending, I struggle just to keep my calm. I wonder what we've done. When waters run too high, or sun gets in my eyes, It's your name I will call, to catch me when I fall. Got to get by, got to get by, got to, Got to get by, got to get by, got to, Got to get by, got to get by, got to. Amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wreck like me. I once was blind but now I see amazing grace for me. Got to get by, got to get by, got to, got to get by, got to get by, got to, Got to get by, got to get by, got to, got to get by, got to get by, got to get by, Got to get by, got to get by, got to, got to get by, got to get by, got to, Got to get by, got to get by, got to get by. |

Another shot of courage in a whisky glass.
I'm frozen with desire every time you walk past. Distant admiration just won't get me near. God knows I've tried so hard to shake away all my fears. I wish I had the courage just to say hello, to say hello to you. I wish I had the courage just to say hello, to say hello to you. Even when you smiled at me across the room, That chance for conversation I let go like a fool. I wish I had the courage just to say hello, to say hello to you. I wish I had the courage just to say hello, to say hello to you. I wish I had the courage just to say hello, to say hello to you. I wish I had the courage just to say hello, to say hello to you. I once had a dream I shed my skin, I turned into some Superman and things were fine Because you were simply mine, But dreams don't last. Got to face reality and make a move. Living with this fantasy I know it's no use. I wish I had the courage just to say hello, to say hello to you. I wish I had the courage just to say hello, to say hello to you. I wish I had the courage just to say hello, to say hello to you. I wish I had the courage just to say hello, to say hello to you. To say hello, to say hello, to say hello, to say hello to you, to you. (repeat to fade) |

Outside in a winter world sits a woman all alone,
It's not the air that seems so cold, it's the love she's never known. Outside in a winter world one lonely child roams, Will ever loving arms unfold to give this soul a home. So they're living on hopes, and they're living on dreams, While the devil is pushing them to extremes, Can their spirits be strong, when for loving they long For the day will come when they must move on. Where angels fear to walk, there you must walk, where angels fear. Outside in a winter world there's a man who's lost his love. So many secrets left untold should he turn and look above. Outside in a winter world one old man sits alone. He thinks of all the years gone by and what little love he's known. So they're living on hopes, and they're living on dreams, While the devil is pushing them to extremes, Can their spirits be strong, when for loving they long For the day will come when they must move on. Where angels fear to walk, there you must walk, where angels fear, There you must love, where angels fear (to love) We all have troubles in our life that we must face. We're merely players in this game we call the human race. Where angels fear to walk, there you must walk, where angels fear, There you must love, where angels fear (to love) |

Like the desert blooms with new fallen rains,
The joy you bring me makes me live just the same, Like a northern star that shines through the night, The peace you offer feels so right, I can't live without your love, without your love, If you were to leave me now I would be lost somehow, without your love. As Mother Nature makes her seasons go by, Both our lives are just as deeply entwined, All the ocean's waters flow into one, Just like this union we've begun, I can't live without your love, without your love, Without your love, without your love, If you were to leave me now I would be lost somehow. Without your love, One empty space, one fear that I could never face. Without your love, Those silent tears, those are the payment for your years. Without your love I'd lose my way, I'd never see the light of day. Without your love I could never trust this way again. Without your love, without your love, Without your love, without your love, Without your love, without your love. (repeat to fade) |

I try to paint pictures drawn from my world,
A song is my canvas, brush strokes are words, But do I portray love that is just my ideal, Like sculptures of stone that can never be real. For I am a man with romance in my soul, Do I cry for the moon as I reach for my goal Looking for a perfect love, Longing for a perfect love. Born of such innocence, how little we save, Our spirits are tempered from cradle to grave, If one drop of virtue can somehow survive, >From oceans of doubt all our dreams can arise. For I am a man with the child in his soul, I live on my hopes as I follow that road Looking for a perfect love, Longing for a perfect love. A thirst for perfection is in every heart, Like a painter who won't be content with his art. For those who drink deeply, all dreams heavy wine, Look for heaven on earth, see a world more divine. Looking for a perfect love, longing for a perfect love, Looking for a perfect love, longing for a perfect love. |
