New Song
by Howard Jones I've been waiting for so long To come here now and sing this song Don't be fooled by what you see Don't be fooled by what you hear This is a song to all my friends They take the challenge to their hearts Challenging preconceived ideas Saying goodbye to long standing fears Don't crack up Bend your brain See both sides Throw off your mental chains I don't wanna be hip and cool I don't wanna play by the rules Not under the thumb of the cynical few Or laden down by the doom crew |

I love you whether or not you love me
I love you even if you think that I don't Sometimes I find you doubt my love for you but I don't mind Why should I mind, Why should I mind What is Love anyway, Does anybody love anybody anyway What is Love anyway, Does anybody love anybody anyway Can anybody love anyone so much that they will never fear Never worry never be sad The answer is they cannot love this much nobody can This is why I don't mind you doubting What is Love anyway, Does anybody love anybody anyway What is Love anyway, Does anybody love anybody anyway And maybe love is letting people be just what they want to be The door always must be left unlocked To love when circumstance may lead someone away from you And not to spend the time just doubting What is Love anyway, Does anybody love anybody anyway What is Love anyway, Does anybody love anybody anyway |

And the fear goes on shadows
And the tear flows on for nothing And the fear goes on shadows And the tear flows on for nothing Under his nose was a dream come true Been there all the time and he almost knew And the fear goes on shadows And the tear flows on for nothing And the fear goes on shadows And the tear flows on for nothing Under his nose was a dream come true Been there all the time and he almost knew Thoughts of people in misfortune stopped him doing things well His duty was to use it - left his pearl in the shell |

Like to get to know you well
Like to get to know you well Like to get to know you well So we can be one We can be one together Like to get to know you well Like to get to know you well Like to get to know you well So we can be one We can be one together Together we can cast away the fear Together we can wipe away the tear Together we can strip down the barriers And be one Don't wanna talk about the weather Don't wanna talk about the news Just wanna get to the real you inside Like to get to know you well Like to get to know you well Like to get to know you well So we can be one We can be one together Don't you think now is the time We should be feelin' Just wanna simply say Won't let you slip away People wanna talk about the future Don't wanna linger on the past Just wanna reach the real you inside Forget cold glances and rejections Leave the things that separate Build on a trust that we can stand on Like to get to know you well Like to get to know you well Like to get to know you well So we can be one We can be one together Finding all are insecure Opening the same door Leaving out a stubborn pride Seeing from the other side Like to get to know you well Like to get to know you well Like to get to know you well So we can be one We can be one together Like to get to know you well Like to get to know you well Like to get to know you well So we can be one We can be one together Like to get to know you well Like to get to know you well Like to get to know you well So we can be one We can be one together Like to get to know you well Like to get to know you well Like to get to know you well So we can be one We can be one together Like to get to know you well Like to get to know you well Like to get to know you well So we can be one We can be one together |

Things Can Only Get Better
by Howard Jones We're not scared to lose it all Security throw through the wall Future dreams we have to realize A thousand sceptic hands Won't keep us from the things we plan Unless we're clinging to the things we prize And do you feel scared - I do But I won't stop and falter And if we threw it all away Things can only get better Wow wow wow oh, wow wow wow oh oh oh oh Treating today as though it was The last, the final show Get to sixty and feel no regret It may take a little time A lonely path, an uphill climb Success or failure will not alter it And do you feel Wow wow wow oh... And do you feel... |

Life in One Day
by Howard Jones The old man said to me Said don't always take life so seriously Play the flute And dance and sing your song Try and enjoy the here and now The future will take care of itself somehow The grass is never greener over there Time will wear away the stone Gets the hereditary bone CHORUS: Don't try to live your life in one day Don't go speed your time away Don't try to live your life in one day Don't go speed your time away The old man said to me Said you can't change the world single handedly Raise a glass enjoy the scenery Pretend the water is champagne And fill my glass again and again While the wolves are gathering round your door Time will wear away the stone Gets the hereditary bone CHORUS The old man said to me Said don't always take life so seriously Play the flute And dance and sing your song Try and enjoy the here and now The future will take care of itself somehow The grass is never greener over there Time will wear away the stone Gets the hereditary bone I tried to live my life in one day Don't go speed your time away I bit off more than I can chew Only so much you can do Wolves are gathering round my door Ask them in and invite some more I tried to live my life in one day Don't go speed your time away Don't try to live your life in one day |

Ride the wild one cowboy in the rodeo
Love like crazy juliet and romeo Living only to consume Bruising hearts collecting gloom Seems no place to hide away From the hammer and caress Dress with passion Fashion for the parking lot Make some action Pushing time out of the clock Take away identity Parcel up what's left of me Water down the youthful drop Call the sane insanity All I want is to live with you All I want is to cry with you Dance til sunrise Reggae til the cows come home Fight the bigot Champion you're not alone I can sort of work things out Juggling the fear and doubt Even when it's watertight In the end I have to say All I want is to live with you All I want is to cry with you I can sort of work things out Juggling the fear and doubt Even when it's watertight In the end I have to say I have to say Ride the wild one cowboy in the rodeo Love like crazy Juliet and Romeo |

Everlasting Love
by Howard Jones He wasn't looking for a pretty face She wasn't searching for the latest style He didn't want someone who walked straight off the tv She needed someone with an interior smile She wasn't looking for a cuddle in the back seat He wasn't looking for a five minute thrill She wasn't thinking of tomorrow or of next week This vacancy he meant to permanently fill I need an everlasting love I need a friend and a lover divine An everlasting precious love Wait for it, wait for it, give it some time Back in the world of disposable emotion In the climate of temporary dreams He wasn't looking for a notch on his bedpost A love to push, pull, and burst at the seams I need an everlasting love I need a friend and a lover divine An everlasting precious love Wait for it, wait for it, give it some time Is this love worth waiting for? Something special, something pure [chorus] Is this love worth waiting for? Bitterness will die for sure Something precious, something pure Is this love worth waiting for? |

You have watched me, safe in your anonymity
I have dreamed you, held in your security Some people believe a photograph traps your mortal soul Your eyes were the camera and you've take hold And you captured me I need you to take control I am a prisoner of no confidence You've entered me now make me whole Every place I go I feel your lenses trained on me This distant concentration takes away my energy Your image burns it's negative Behind my waking eyes Then the night comes and you stalk your prize And you captured me I need you to take control I am a prisoner of no confidence You've entered me now make me whole Some people believe a photograph traps your mortal soul Your eyes were the camera and you've taken hold And you captured me I need you to take control I am a prisoner of no confidence You've entered me now make me whole |
