Let me tell you all a story 'bout this time I was down and out Just goes to prove there's always a light on But if you look you'll find it's inside of you So I want y'all to listen up I Been sitting here all night Tryin' to make this thing word out right I been getting nowhere fast Suddenly as I lay down on the bed I hear a little voice inside my head It says if you want to do it girl - you got to have some faith Come over here and listen - hurry up or you'll be late Chorus : Listen to my story Listen to me well Ooh I will make you a believer If you're feeling sorry for yourself I can tell Ooh I will make you a believer Yeah - I will make you a believer So you been trying to make amends for The bloodsuckers you call friends Drag you deep into the hole Crazy - that you'd let them into your world They will take your diamonds, baby they will steal your pearls If you want to play the game You got to lose the rules You can play with passion Rules are just for fools CHORUS You got to learn to fall in love with vhat's inside Get on the horse I wanna ride I got a reason to believe the light's inside Some things I can have now Some things have to wait Some things I will never get I will always - I will always have my faith |

She's getting married - looking at her life Every time she turns around - she's somebody's wife But no dice - she wants to break that chain tonight He's been working sales - sleeping on the phone Every time he wants to quit - he can't make his loan But he'll drive - they'll make that Texas line tonight C'mon baby - no more maybe This could make us young again - for awhile Chorus : If you're gonna love me - love me tonight If we're gonna do it - let's do it right If you're gonna love me - love me tonight The devil's getting dusty - cause sin is outta style Mommy's leaving daddy - found another man They can't feed the family - sent the kids to uncle Sam But he lied - he couldn't feed them if he tried Let's get together - let's forget the ties Let's be like in the movies - for a night CHORUS Now and then we think that everything's changing That we can see the light Then we stop and see it's always the same thing Reality comes into sight Comon baby - no more maybe This could make us young again - for awhile |

Wind blows thru this empty room
Like blood from an open wound Shut my eyes - I don't wanna see Outside there's a big parade Some girl - She got it made Things change in the time it takes to breathe But I can't stand to see her hands on you Cause you were my religion too You don't have to remind me I don't need you to bring it home You don't have to remind me Cause every night - I sleep alone My friends all say I got nothin' to lose So what if I can pick and choose Those substitutes - They're just a waste of my time So here I sit in this lonely room Just me and a lover's moon Funny how love can be so unkind Sometimes I wish I could forget the past Cause I can't stand to see it last You don't have to remind me I don't need you to bring it home You don't have to remind me Cause every night - I sleep alone I know there's people who can walk upon the water So how come I'm sinking like a storm? You part the sea - Then you walk away from me I don't know how much longer I can breathe You don't have to remind me I don't need you to bring it home You don't have to remind me Cause every night - I sleep alone |

Sun's going down now I'm one day older got to spread my wings Shadows get longer Still you won't let up grinding your opinions on things Over the border Invading my intimate territory Now who's the fool here Look into the mirror, baby, tell me if you like what you see Chorus : Who do you think you are Tellin' me how I'm sypposed to run my life Who do you think you are Guaranteed I'll hit the highway Know I'll hit the highway tonight So you think you're a winner But you're losing points with every word you toss And if you're only human What gives you the right to be nailing me up here on your cross CHORUS I believe in compassion I believe in some sympathy You need self education Before you get to slammin' what you don't like in me Sun's going down now I'm one day older got to spread my wings And I'm for the highway God gave me the reason to sing |

Is there a reason why you're so handy with the knife
You cut me up on the inside then say you love me like your life I try to defend my self-respect But it's getting harder cos you always think that you know best Your love is winding me up Your love makes push come to shove Your love is winding me up Baby I can't get enough I have spent the whole night crying after one of your remarks You set me up like you're trying To see if I will fall apart I'm the fool in this story And it always seems to make you laugh And you won't rest until you break my heart in half Your love is winding me up Your love makes push come to shove Your love is winding me up Baby I can't get enough |

On the east side of St Laurence Blvd
There's a whole different world People talking and laughing at anything In the summertime whirl Nobody's asking questions 'Bout who you are and where you've been Just willing to live and let live Whatever state you might find yourself in I'm goin' back again someday Down where the river meets the ocean I'm goin' back again - someday And that's where I'll stay - That's where I'm gonna stay On the west side of St Lawrence Blvd It's somethin' else again Another feeling, a different culture And people hangin' with their old friends Nobody seems to notice - About what's changing on the other side Someday we will come together Reach across this great divide I'm goin' back again someday Down where the river meets the ocean I'm goin' back again - someday And that's where I'll stay - That's where I'm gonna stay Some people tell no lies - some people wear their hats too tight Some people forgive and forget you - Some of them never let you They say my home in the land of snow is nice Let me tell you what it's like It's eleven months of winter baby and Just one month of pretty thin ice I'm goin' back again someday Down where the river meets the ocean I'm goin' back again - someday And that's where I'll stay - That's where I'm gonna stay |

I know they say that you're a problem child
But you don't look so dangerous to me Why don't you give them your shoes and make them walk for a mile Maybe they will see how it feels Amazing how when you change your perspective Certain myths come tumbling down The things you hate in yourself are reflected No one's to blame but the denial you've found So just do what you want and don't do what you oughta Do what you want and don't listen to order And you're thinking the end is in sight Just remember you're still here tonight So just do what you want and you'll be alright Well who's the little girl with the tight dress on All the boys are going insane Every other girl thinks she's looking too nasty On Halloween they all dress the same The social rules we accept like we're good sheep Don't give me a reason to live Cos I intend to have fun while I'm down here The more I have well the more I can give So just do what you want and don't do what you oughta Do what you want and don't listen to order And you're thinking the end is in sight Just remember you're still here tonight So just do what you want and you'll be alright And if you're looking for the door to escape It's on the left by the barbed wire gate And baby if you take the 'd' out of doubt What you get is 'out' Time to jump and shout Take the 'd' out of doubt And you can leave it as you walk on out Amazing how when you change your perspective Certain myths come tumbling down The things you hate in yourself are reflected But we can change any speed or direction And we can change it tonight So just do what you want and don't do what you oughta Do what you want and don't listen to order And you're thinking the end is in sight Just remember you're still here tonight So just do what you want and you'll be alright |

They say no one takes a fall
Quite as hard the second time around I don't know it all - But I know that sure ain't what I have found I need you to release me Forgive me if you think that I was wrong Put your arms around me honey - Make me feel that it's alright Nothin' could be darker than this long and ugly fight Down to the ground we fall - Just like fallin' leaves to the ground We fall and I hear you callin' me - Crybaby Who knows what your hidin' - Hidin' in the fortress of your mind Who knew I'd be feelin' - Feelin' like this ain't too far from dying Life is made for change - I know that that's what you will say And you know I believe you honey - I don't know why I still cry Maybe it runs deeper than what only meets the eye Take me by the hand Lead me up the stairway I've been here before I know what you will say I been on the wrong road I got in too deep - Got no room for maybe's I can here you sayin' - Crybaby |

( Jordan / Neigher )
You been holding up your banner Saying who's the master planner Who's the cat that got me in this hole? Everytime you wish for something You have set the wheels to running Hold on tight cause it's the ride you chose But if you want her to love you Your gonna get what you give out in the meantime Make damn sure that you know what you want Cause thats what you'll get Chorus : Careful what you wish for baby It will all come true someday Listen hard to every word that you wanna say Where there's a will there's a way Everything is made for changing We spend lifetimes rearranging Hopes and dreams that don't turn out like we planned Cause what you think it is, is one thing But how it feels when you get it is another Make damn sure that you know what you want Cause that's what you'll get CHORUS Everything you see Isn't what it seems But you'll get what you need |

I've had the blues and I had the breaks
I had a million dollars just a little too late But I stood up - For what I believed in I ain't never gettin' down on my bended knee To kiss the ass of the powers that be And I ain't givin' up on what I believe in So nobody can dig that thorn in my side I ain't worried about no perfect disguise Time flies and I'm on the run Time flies - I'm a loaded gun Even if I'm fightin' at the starting gate Can't hold me back - I'm gonna win the race There'll me be no backin' down - From what I believe in I've got the courage and I got the mouth Ain't gonna live my life without doubt No givin' up - On what I believe in Time flies and I'm on the run Time flies - I'm a loaded gun Nobody can dig that thorn in my side I ain't worried about no perfect disguise I've opened my mind and I've opened my eyes Time flies and I'm on the run Time flies - I'm a loaded gun |
