Through these misty eyes I see lonely skies
Lonely road to Babylon Where's my family And my country heaven knows where I belong Pack my bags tonight Here's one Jacobite Who must leave or surely die Put me on a train In the pouring rain say farewell but don't say goodbye Seagull carry me, over land and sea To my own folk, that's where I want to be Every beat of my heart Tears me further apart I'm lost and alone in the dark I'm going home One more glass of wine Just for auld lang syne And the girl I left behind How I miss her now In my darkest hour And the way our arms entwine Seagull carry me, over land and sea To my own folk, that's where I want to be Every beat of my heart Tears me further apart I'm lost and alone in the dark I'm going home And we'll drink a toast To the blood red rose Cheer a while the Emerald Isle And to the northern lights And the swirling pipes How they make a grown man cry Seagull carry me, over land and sea To my own folk, that's where I want to be Every beat of my heart Tears me further apart I'm lost and alone in the dark I'm going home |

I saw my love walking down the aisle
And as he passed me by He turned and gave me a smile Then, the preacher, then the preacher The preacher joined their hands And all the people, all the people began to stand When I shouted, "you know it should have been me" (Instead of her walking with you) You are leaving me stranded You know that it should have been me baby Oh baby gettin' ready to marry you Darlin' darlin' darlin' You made a promise that we would never part Then you turned around and broke my little heart Now you're standing there saying I do Holding hands with somebody new You know that it should have been me (I can't stand it) Instead of her standing by you You know that it should have been me It should have been me (Baby don't do it) Then the preacher oh yeah the preacher asked That there be silence please If anybody objects to this wedding Speak now or forever or forever hold your peace Thin I shouted, "It should have been me" You know that it should have been me Don't you know that it should have been me You know that it should have been me I've been faithful to you baby, baby, baby You were leaving me stranded |

Sunshine blue skies please go away
The girl has found another and gone away. With her went my future my life is filled with gloom So day after day I stay locked up in my room. I know to you, it might sound strange but I wish it would rain, Cause so badly I wanna go outside But everyone knows that a man ain't supposed to cry Listen, I gotta cry 'cause crying eases the pain, Oh yeah, people this hurt I feel inside. Words could never explain, I just wish it would rain. Day in day out my tear-stained face Pressed against the window pain, My eyes search the skies desperately for rain, Cause rain-drops will hide my tear -drops And no one will ever know that I'm crying, Crying when I go outside. To the world outside my tears, I refuse to explain, oh I wish it would rain, let it rain, let it rain. I need rain to disguise the tears in my eyes. Oh, let it rain. I'm a man and I got my pride Til' it rains I'm gonna stay inside and let it rain. ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By STRONG, BARRETT/WHITFIELD, NORMAN J./PENZABENE, RODGER, SR. <i>Lyrics © EMI Music Publishing</i> |

Well, well, well, well
Seems like it was only yesterday When my mama told me don't fall in love With the first guy that comes your way He was handsome and nice But I took her advice and passed him by Years have passed and don't look Like love's gonna give me a second try Boy the look on your face tells me you understand could it be your love life's like mine Needs a helping hand well, well You need love like I do (don't you). Boy I can tell by the way You look when I'm looking at you I know it ain't fit and proper for a girl to talk this way But I can't cope with this loneliness Not one more doggone day Everyday has been an uphill climb Keeping my hopes a-float Judging from your silence boy You must be in the same boat ain't it true now You need love like I do (don't you) Boy I can tell by the way you look When I'm looking at you Well, well, well you need love Like I do (don't you) Boy it seems like I'm looking in the mirror When I'm looking at you I can't begin to tell The many nights I sit home lonely Come on and tell me boy Has it ever happened to you Boy I'm gonna tell you something And believe me it ain't no joke My love life is just like a sinking boat I can understand a person being without money But there sho' ain't no reason For a person to be without love Listen to me now I'm a girl and you're a guy So come on let's give love a try Tell me lil' boy You need love like I do (don't you) I can tell by the way you look When I'm looking at you Boy finding true love is a dream That everyone wants to come true Boy can't you see it's up to us To make this dream come true oh. |

I`m imagining A lot of happy people
And most of you are with Someone you love Well, you are the lucky ones All over the world, there are Lots of people who are alone tonight I imagine most of us have Been it that situation At one time or another I know I have Recently, I heard a beautiful song With a dynamic lyric that really Expresses this feeling of lonlieness It means a lot to me, personally And I`d like to share with you I think you`ll see what I mean Take the ribbon from my hair Shake it loose and let it fall Laying soft against your skin Like the shadows on the the wall Come and lay down by my side Till the early morning light All I'm taking is your time Help me make it through the night I don't care what's right or wrong I won't try to understand Let the devil take tomorrow 'Cause tonight I need a friend Yesterday is dead and gone And tomorrow is out of sight And it's sad to be alone Help me make it through the night And it's sad to be alone Help me make it through the night I don't want to be alone Help me make it through the night - |

It's sad to think we're not gonna be here
And it's gotten to the point Where we just can't fake it For some ungodly reason We just won't let it be I guess neither one of us Neither one of us wants to be the first to say good-bye I keep wondering Wondering What I'm gonna do without you And I guess you must be wondering the same thing too So we go on Go on together Living a lie Because I guess neither one of us Neither one of us wants to be the first to say good-bye Everytime I find the nerve Everytime I find the nerve to say I'm leaving Memories Those old memories get in my way Lord knows it's only me Only know it's me That I'm missing you When it comes to saying good-bye That a simple word that I just cannot say There can be no way There can be no way This can have a happy ending No, no So we just go on Hurting and pretending Convincing ourselves to give it just one more try Because I guess neither one of us Neither one of us wants to be the first to say Neither one of us wants to be the first to say Neither one of us wants to be the first to say Farewell my love Goodbye |
