My father sits at night with no lights on
His cigarette glows in the dark. The living room is still; I walk by, no remark. I tiptoe past the master bedroom where My mother reads her magazines. I hear her call sweet dreams, But I forgot how to dream. But you say it's time we moved in together And raised a family of our own, you and me - Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be: You want to marry me, we'll marry. My friends from college they're all married now; They have their houses and their lawns. They have their silent noons, Tearful nights, angry dawns. Their children hate them for the things they're not; They hate themselves for what they are- And yet they drink, they laugh, Close the wound, hide the scar. But you say it's time we moved in together And raised a family of our own, you and me - Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be: You want to marry me, we'll marry. You say we can keep our love alive Babe - all I know is what I see - The couples cling and claw And drown in love's debris. You say we'll soar like two birds through the clouds, But soon you'll cage me on your shelf - I'll never learn to be just me first By myself. Well O.K., it's time we moved in together And raised a family of our own, you and me - Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be, You want to marry me, we'll marry, We'll marry. |

Well I have known you
Since you were a small boy And your mama used to say "My boy is gonna grow up and be Some kind of leader some day" Then you'd turn on the radio And sing with the singer in the band Your mama would say to you "This isn't exactly what we had planned" But you're a legend in your own time A hero in the footlights Playin' tunes to fit your rhyme But a legend's only a lonely boy When he goes home alone. And though I know you Still have the heart of that small boy Well, you lend it out far too much And no one woman lovin' you Can ever feel that she's been really touched Then you turn on the radio And sing with the singer in the band Think kind of sadly to yourself This isn't exactly what you had planned But you're a legend in your own time A hero in the footlights Playin' tunes to fit your rhyme But a legend's only a lonely boy When he goes home alone Well a legend's only a lonely boy When he goes home alone |

We can never know about the days to come
but we think about them anyway. And I wonder if I'm really with you now or just chasing after some finer day Anticipation, anticipation is making me late is keeping me waiting And I tell you how easy it feels to be with you and how right your arms feel around me. But I rehearsed those words just late last night when I was thinking about how right tonight might be. Anticipation, Anticipation is making me late is keeping me waiting And tomorrow we might not be together I'm no prophet, i don't know nature's ways. So I'll try and see into your eyes right now and stay right here, 'cause these are the good old days. |

There's nothin' you can do to turn me away
Nothin' anyone can say You're with me now and as long as you stay Lovin' you's the right thing to do Lovin' you's the right thing I know you've had some bad luck with ladies before They drove you or you drove them crazy But more important is I know you're the one and I'm sure Lovin' you's the right thing to do Lovin' you's the right thing And it used to be for a while That the river flowed right to my door Making me just a little too free But now the river doesn't seem to stop here anymore Hold me in your hands like a bunch of flowers Set me movin' to your sweetest song And I know what I think I've known all along Lovin' you's the right thing to do Lovin' you's the right thing Lovin' you's the right thing to do Is the right thing Nothing you could ever do would turn me away from you I love you now and I love you now Even though you're ten thousand miles away I'll love you tomorrow as I love you today I'm in love babe I'm in love with you babe. |

Well, you said that we made such a pretty pair And that you would never leave But you gave away the things you loved And one of them was me.

You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you You're so vain, I bet you think this song is about you Don't you, don't you? You're so vain You probably think this song is about you |

All those crazy nights when I cried myself to sleep
Now melodrama never makes me weep anymore 'Cause I haven't got time for the pain I haven't got room for the pain I haven't the need for the pain Not since I've known you You showed me how, how to leave myself behind How to turn down the noise in my mind Now I haven't got time for the pain I haven't got room for the pain I haven't the need for the pain Not since I've known you Suffering was the only thing that made me feel I was alive Though that's just how much it cost to survive in this world 'Til you showed me how, how to fill my heart with love How to open up and drink in all that white love Pouring down from the heaven I haven't got time for the pain I haven't got room for the pain I haven't the need for the pain Not since I've known you |

The way that you hold me Whenever you hold me There's some kind of magic inside you That keeps me from runnin' But just keep it comin' How'd you learn to do the things you do? Oh, and nobody does it better Makes me feel sad for the rest Nobody does it half as good as you Baby, baby, darlin', you're the best Baby you're the best Darlin', you're the best Baby you're the best FADE Oh, oh, oh |

I have no need of half of anything
No half time, no half a man's attention Give me all the earth and sky And at the same time Add a new dimension Half the truth is of no use Give it all, give it all to me I can stand it, I am strong that way Give me all night Give me the full moon And if I can't take the whole of you Give it to me anyway Give me all night 'Till the last star fades And if you can' t take my heart and soul Take it from me anyway Don't give me fountains, I need waterfalls And, when I cry, my tears will fill an ocean The pain of love, I'll accept it all As long as you'll join me in that emotion Half of lovin' is no fun Give it all, give it all to me I can stand it, I am strong that way (Repeat Chorus) Don't leave me guessing alone Don't walk me half the way home You can do that tomorrow Just give me, give me all night (Repeat Chorus) |

Take a look around now Change the direction Adjust the tuning Try a new translation Don't look at your man in the same old way Take a new picture Just because you don't see shooting stars Doesn't mean it isn't perfect can't you see... It's the stuff that dreams are made of It's the slow and steady fire It's the stuff that dreams are made of It's your heart and soul's desire It's the stuff that dreams are made of So what's this about your best friend? She's got a brand new shiny boy And they're moving out to Malibu To play with all his pretty toys And you feel closed in by the same four walls The same old conversation With the same old guy you've know for years But use your imagination And you will see.... It's the stuff that dreams are made of It's the slow and steady fire It's the stuff that dreams are made of It's your heart and soul's desire It's the stuff that dreams are made of What if the Prince on the horse in your fairytale Is right here in disguise And what if the stars you've been reaching so high for Are shining in his eyes Don't look at yourself in the same old way Take another picture Shoot the stars off in your own backyard Don't look any further And you will see It's the stuff that dreams are made of.... |

We're coming to the edge
running on the water coming through the fog your sons and daughters Let the river run let all the dreamers wake the nation Come, the New Jerusalem. Silver cities rise the morning lights the streets that lead them and sirens call them on with a song It's asking for the taking trembling shaking Oh, my heart is aching We're coming to the edge running on the water coming through the fog your sons and daughters We the great and small stand on a star and blaze a trail of desire through the darkening dawn It's asking for the taking Come run with me now the sky is the colour of blue you've never even seen in the eyes of your lover Oh, my heart is aching We're coming to the edge running on the water coming through the fog your sons and daughters It's asking for the taking trembling, shaking Oh, my heart is aching We're coming to the edge running on the water coming through the fog your sons and daughters Let the river run let all the dreamers wake the nation Come, the New Jerusalem |

Better not tell her, that I was your lover Better not make her jealous of me Better convince her there was nothing between us I'm not those initials in your diary But if you slip and my name comes up Don't deny that you knew me Just leave out the white nights The moon in your window The break in your whisper The promises after Better not tell her why you love Spanish dancing Don't bother to say that it's hot in the summer in Madrid Let it all go now, Like smoke from a candle Like the trace of a song that you hear in the wind But if you slip and my name comes up Don't deny that you knew me Just leave out the white nights The moon in your window The break in your whisper The promises after Leave out the tears and the laughter She won't need to know That I cried when you left That I think of you still But if you slip and my name comes up Don't deny that you knew me Just leave out the white nights The moon in your window The break in your whisper The promises after Leave out the tears and the laughter She won't need to know That I'd die for your love That I still...love...you |

Ukuleles and fireworks And Woody Allen and walking in the snow But you've got to know You're the love of my life You are the love of my life You are the love of my life You are the love of my life From the moment I first saw you The second that you were born I knew that you were the love of my life Quite simply the love of my life I love Lucy and pumpernickel bread The Statue of Liberty and standing ovations And falling into bed But get it through your head You're the love of my life You are the love of my life You are the love of my life You are the love of my life From the moment I first saw you The second that you were born I knew that you were the love of my life Quite simply the love of my life You can drive me crazy You can drive me anywhere Here are the keys Just do as you please It may not always be easy But you're the love of my life My heart is riding on a runaway train You are the love of my life Through all the pleasure and pain From the moment I first saw you I knew, I knew it right away I knew that you were the love of my life Simply the love of my life You are the love The great love of my life. |

Dear mother the struggle is over now
And your house is up for sale We divided your railway watches Between the four of us I fought over the pearls With the other girls But it was all a metaphor For what was wrong with us As the room is emptying out Your face so young comes into view And on the back porch is a well-worn step And a pool of light you can walk into I'll wait no more for you like a daughter, That part of our life together is over But I will wait for you, forever Like a river... Can you clear up the mystery of the Sphinx? Do you know any more about God? Are you dancing with Benjamin Franklin On the face of the moon? Have you reconciled with Dad? Does the rain still make you sad? Last night I swear I could feel you Moving through my room And I thought you touched my feet I so wanted it to be true In my theater there is a stage And a footlight you can step into... I'll wait no more for you like a daughter, That part of our life together is over But I will wait for you, forever Like a river... In the river I know I will find the key And your voice will rise like the spray In the moment of knowing The tide will wash away my doubt 'Cause you're already home Making it nice for when I come home Like the way I find my bed turned down Coming in from a late night out. Please keep reminding me Of what in my soul I know is true Come in my boat, there's a seat beside me And two or three stars we can gaze into... I'll wait no more for you like a daughter, That part of our life together is over But I will wait for you forever Like a river... I'll never leave, always just a dream away A star that's always watching Never turn away We'll never leave, always just a thought away A candle always burning Never turn away The moon will hide, the tree will bend I'm right beside you I'll never turn away |

If you want to be brave And reach for the top of the sky And the farthest point on the horizon Do you know who you'll meet there Great soldiers and seafarers, Artists and dreamers Who need to be close, close to the light They need to be in danger of burning by fire And I, I want to get there I, I want to be one One who is touched by the sun, One who is touched by the sun Often I want to walk The safe side of the street And lull myself to sleep And dull my pain But deep down inside I know I've got to learn from the greats, Earn my right to be living, Let my wings of desire Soar over the night I need to let them say "She must have been mad" And I, I want to get there I, I want to be one One who is touched by the sun, One who is touched by the sun I've got to learn from the greats, Earn my right to be living, With every breath that I take, Every heartbeat And I, I want to get there I, I want to be one, One who is touched by the sun, One who is touched by the sun. |

We were so strong then
We built our house on our love We had a heart on the hill Love was so proud then We lived in the clouds when The tower was crumbling down Around us on the hill Oh, we've got to leave this town together Clean out another house Amity Amity is not too much to ask We reach to the sky still In hopes we'd be able To see the bigger picture later on But we tumbled down Jack 'n Jill all around As the valley swallowed up All the dreams we had made Oh, see the lighthouse in the distance On some farther shore We were so strong then We built our house on our love We had a heart on the hill Love was so proud then We lived in the clouds when The tower was crumbling down Around us on the hill |
