I sit by the harbour
The sea calls to me I hide in the water But l need to breathe You are an ocean wave, my love Crashing at the bow I am a galley slave, my love If only I could find out the way To sail you Maybe I'll just stow away I've been run aground So sad for a sailor I felt safe and sound But needed the danger You are an ocean wave, my love Crashing at the bow I am a galley slave, my love If only I would find out the way To sail you Maybe I'll just stow away You are an ocean wave, my love Crashing at the bow I am a galley slave, my love If only I would find out the way To sail you Maybe I'll just stow away Stow away Stow away |

All that I have is all that you've given me
did you never worry that I'd come to depend on you I gave you all the love I had in me now I find you've lied and I can't believe it's true Wrapped in her arms I see you across the street and I can't help but wonder if she knows what's going on you talk of love but you don't know how it feels when you realise that you're not the only one Oh you'd better stop before you tear me all apart you'd better stop before you go and break my heart ooh you'd better stop Time after time I've tried to walk away but it's not that easy when your soul is torn in two so I just resign myself to it every day now all I can do is to leave it up to you Oh you'd better stop before you tear me all apart you'd better stop before you go and break my heart ooh you'd better stop Stop if love me (you will remember) now's the time to be sorry (that day forever) I won't believe that you'd walk out on me Oh you'd better stop before you tear me all apart you'd better stop before you go and break my heart ooh you'd better stop |

Somebody, somewhere turns off the lights
Somebody all alone faces the night You got to be strong When you're out on your own 'Cause sooner or later We all sleep alone Nobody, nowhere holds the key to your heart When love's a possession it'll tear you apart You may have lovers wherever you roam But sooner or later We all sleep alone The young and the young at heart waits But the wait never ends in the soul When you feel like it's all blown away Independence has come And into the night I go Don't make no promises That I can't keep Won't be no prisoner Of somebody's need Well you may have lovers Wherever you roam But sooner or later We all sleep alone And I know, and I know How you feel What you're thinking What you're saying to me Cause we all sleep alone |

I've been missing you
I've got the roses and I've got the wine With a little luck she will be here on time This is the place we used to go With romantic music and the lights down low And as you stand there amazed at the door And you're wondering what all this is for It's just a simple thing from me to you The lady that I adore Cause there's something that you should know It's that I've been missing you More than words can say And that I've been thinking about it every day And the time we had just dancing nice and slow And I said "Now that I've found you I'm never letting go" There is no reason to the things that we do You can break a heart with just a word or two And take a lifetime to apologise When the one you love's in front of your eyes And I will fall to my knees like a fool If it's the only way of getting through You see if I think you are beautiful Someone else is gonna feel it too So there's only on thing to do It's that I've been missing you More than words can say And that I've been thinking about it everyday Well tonight's our night for dancing nice and slow Because now I've found you I'm never letting... go. |

I'm not aware of too many things
I know what I know if you know what I mean Philosophy is the talk on a cereal box Religion is the smile on a day I'm not aware of too many things I know what I know if you know what I mean Choke me in the shallow water Before I get too deep What I am is what I am are you what you are or what? What I am is what I am are you what you are or what? I'm not aware of too many things I know what I know if you know what I mean Philosophy is a walk on the slippery rocks Religion is a light in the fog I'm not aware of too many things I know what I know if you know what I mean Choke me in the shallow water Before I get too deep What I am is what I am are you what you are or what? What I am is what I am are you what you are or what? Choke me in the shallow water Before I get too deep Don't let me get too deep 나는 너무 많은 걸 알고 있지 않아 내 말이 뭐냐하면 난 내가 아는 것만 알고 있어 철학이란 쌀통(곡식상자) 위의 이야기 종교는 하루의 웃음 난 너무 많은 걸 알고 있지 않아 내 말이 뭐냐하면 난 내가 아는 것만 알고 있어 내가 너무 깊게 들어가지 않게 얕은 물에서 나를 붙잡아줘 나는 나 이고 너는 너 잖아? 나는 나 이고 너는 너 잖아? 난 너무 많은 걸 알고 있지 않아 내 말이 뭐냐하면 난 내가 아는 것만 알고 있어 철학은 미끄러운 바위위를 걷는 것 종교는 안개 속의 불빛 난 너무 많은 걸 알고 있지 않아 내 말이 뭐냐하면 난 내가 아는 것만 알고 있어 내가 너무 깊게 들어가지 않게 얕은 물에서 나를 붙잡아줘 |

(I will survive without you)
(Don't tell me that you won't love me) If you wanna leave I won't beg you to stay And if you gotta go, darling Maybe it's better that way I'm gonna be strong I'm gonna do fine Don't worry about this heart of mine (And walk out that door See if I care Go on and go) But... Don't turn around 'cause you're gonna see my heart breakin' Don't turn around I don't want you seein' me cry Just walk away It's tearin' me apart that you're leavin' I'm lettin' you go But I won't let you know I wont let you know I won't miss your arms around me Holdin' me tight (holdin' me tight) And if you ever think about me Just know that I'll be alright (I'll be alright) I'm gonna be strong I'm gonna do fine Don't worry about this heart of mine (I know I'll survive I'll make it through I'll even learn to live without you) Don't turn around 'cause you're gonna see my heart breakin' Don't turn around I don't want you seein' me cry Just walk away It's tearin' me apart that you're leavin' I'm lettin' you go But I won't let you know I wont let you know I wish I could scream out loud that I love you I wish I could say to you "don't go" As he walks away, he feels the pain gettin' strong People in your life, they don't know what's going on Too proud to turn around, he's gone Don't turn around 'cause you're gonna see my heart breakin' Don't turn around I don't want you seein' me cry Just walk away It's tearin' me apart that you're leavin' I'm lettin' you go But I won't let you know I wont let you know |

The flowers you gave me
Are just about to die When I think about What could've been It makes me want to cry The sweet words you whispered Didn't mean a thing I guess our song is over As we begin to sing Could've been so beautiful Could've been so right Could've been my lover Every day of my life Could've been so beautiful Could've been so right I'll never hold what could've been On a cold and lonely night The members of our lovin' Still linger in the air Like the faded scent of your roses They stay with me everywhere Everytime I get my hopes up They always seem to fall Still what could've been is better than What could neveRepeat be at all Could've been so beautiful Could've been so right Could've been my lover Every day of my life Could've been so beautiful Could've been so right you'll never know what could've been On a cold and lonely night Could've been so beautiful Could've been so right you'll never know what could've been On a cold and lonely night How could I hold what could've been On a cold and lonely night |

I know you're out there somewhere Somewhere somewhere I know I'll find you somehow And somehow I'll return again to you The mist is lifting slowly I can see the way ahead And I've left behind the empty streets That once inspired my life And the strength of the emotion Is like thunder in the air 'Cos the promise that we made each other Haunts me to the end CHORUS I know you're out there somewhere Somewhere somewhere I know you're out there somewhere Somewhere you can hear my voice I know I'll find you somehow Somehow somehow I know I'll find you somehow And somehow I'll return again to you The secret of your beauty And the mystery of your soul I've been searching for in everyone I meet And the times I've been mistaken It's impossible to say And the grass is growing Underneath our feet CHORUS The words that I remember From my childhood still are true BRThat there's none so blind BRAs those who will not see BRAnd to those who lack the courage BRAnd say it's dangerous to try BRWell they just don't know BRThat love eternal will not be denied BR BRCHORUS BR BRYou know it's going to happen BRI can feel you getting near BRAnd soon we'll be returning BRTo the fountains of our youth BRAnd if you wake up wondering BRIn the darkness I'll be there BRMy arms will close around you BRAnd protect you with the truth |

Hey I was walking my bag
Through a 20 storey non stop snow storm Pirrelli calendar girls wrestling in body lotion My head's swimming with poetry and prose Excuse me one moment whilst I powder my nose Me and my good thing are just about as close as can be We gave up sleep at the age of 17 My world's getting bigger as my eyesight gets worse I can't see the lines on my idiot board What about love? I don't let that stuff in my house This is the glamorous life there's no time for fooling around Lord have mercy I know what I'm doing I don't need an alibi I need a fire escape and an open window It's my problem it's nothing I can't deal with I'm not chasing anything just jogging baby What's your bag? Hundred million dollar jam Got some traffic yessir in my nose Motorcycle speed cops burning up my dust roads My baby left me heck ain't that a shame She's over in the corner with my new best friend I'm doing fine with my whisky and wine And meet me in the john john meet me in the john john Lord have mercy ...What's your bag? Spin spin whisky and gin I suffer for my art Bartender I got wild mushrooms growing in my yard Fix me a quart of petrol clams on the half shell Feels like prohibition baby give me the hard sell More give me more give me more more more I'm your yes man yes ma'am I'm your yes man Lord have mercy... ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By CLARK, NEIL ROBERT/COLE, LLOYD/COWAN, BLAIR GRAY <i>Lyrics © EMI Music Publishing</i> |

Every night that I held you
Made heaven from hell, yea I did it for love Like the change of the season You grew cold for that reason I did it for love And when it all went wrong And there's no use hanging on I turned and walked away Chorus: I did it, I did it, I did it for love Now you want to know Why I let you go I did it for love Well, I thought that I was tough Well, I guess I'm not tough enough I didn't do it for the glory I did it for love When you were lost in the night And you feared for your life I came running to you And as I held you so tight You said forever you and I But girl, I knew And now you stand and you say How could I walk away I love you too much to stay (chorus) Oh, I remember how it started And we felt so alive And the passion was burning inside There's a lesson in love When the heart grows wild Well, I thought that I was tough Well, I guess I ain't tough enough I did it for love Oh, Oh I did it, I did it, I did it for love Now you want to know Why I let you go I did it for love |

Lost in a dream in the arms of the night
Two lonely prisoners of our own device Don't let me go. Hold on together You wanna know if love can be real I wanna take everything I can steal Love on the line, it's now or never. Why can't the night last forever. This could be Paradise Holding you here by my side If we just close our eyes We'll be in Heaven tonight. Run through the night down streets of desire Burning my soul, my heart's on fire Give up the fight, it's sweet surrender With trembling hands we reach for it all Two desperate hearts waiting to fall I need you now, now more than ever. Why can't the night last forever. This feels like Paradise I see the world in our eyes If we just hold on tight We'll be in Heaven tonight. |

Cold Metal
Uh I played tag in the auto graveyard I looked up at the radio tower Rag tent by the railroad tracks Concrete poured over steel bridge Pondered my fate While they built the interstate I'm a product of America From the morgue to the prisons Cold metal, when I start my band Cold metal, in my garbage can Cold metal, gets in my blood And my attitude Yeah, a huh Threw my hide in an automobile Heard a song called "Drive the wheel" Truckers, trailers, tractors caught me workin' This is the song of my heritage From the bad to the Buddha Cold metal, that's what it be Cold metal, from sea to sea Cold metal, it's how we win And also how we sin How we sin, how we sin, how we sin, how we sin Cold metal, in the afternoon Sounds lovely like a Hendrix tune Cold metal, it's the father of beat The mother of the street Cold metal, it rolls on by Cold metal, gonna raise it high Cold metal, it'll even fly Rust buckets in the sky Cold metal, got to be Skeleton of the free Cold metal, it's gotta be Better save a tree Save a tree, save a tree, save a tree, save a tree Yeah |

Christine - Still walking at me
Still talking at me Christine - Such a sense of loss and the baby cried Christine Christine And the whole world dragged us down The whole world turned aside Christine - You're in deep, pristine - With a god-like glow Christine - Christine - Heart and the glory and me Chaos and the big sea Christine - Still walking at me Still talking at me Christine Christine Christine And the whole world dragged us down Not a sonnet not a sound And the whole world turned aside The cruelest hand just turned an eye Christine |

<P>Follow me into a solo
Get in the flow - and you can picture like a photo Music mixed mellow maintains to make Melodies for MC's motivates the breaks I'm everlastin, I can go on for days and days With rhyme displays that engrave deep as X-rays I can take a phrase that's rarely heard, FLIP IT Now it's a daily word I can get iller than 'Nam, a killin bomb But no alarm - Rakim will remain calm Self-esteem make me super superb and supreme But for a microphone still I fiend This was a tape I wasn't supposed to break I was supposed to wait, but let's motivate I want to see who can keep followin and swallowin Takin the making, bitin it and borrowin Brothers tried and others died to get the formula But I'ma let ya sweat - you still ain't warm You a step away from frozen, stiff as if ya posin Dig into my brain as the rhyme gets chosen So follow me and were ya thinkin' you were first? Let's travel at magnificent speeds around the Universe What could ya say as the Earth gets further and further away Planets are small as balls of clay Astray into the Milky Way - world's outasight Far as the eye can see - not even a satellite Now stop and turn around and look As ya stare in the darkness, ya knowledge is took! So keep starin soon ya suddenly see a star You better follow it cause it's the R This is a lesson if ya guessin and if ya borrowin Hurry hurry step right up and keep followin The Leader </P><P>This is a lifetime mission, vision of prison Aight listen In this journey you're the journal I'm the journalist Am I Eternal? Or an eternalist? I'm about to flow long as I can possibly go Keep ya movin cause the crowd said so Dance - cuts rip ya pants Eric B on the blades, bleedin to death - call the ambulance Pull out my weapon and start to squeeze A magnum as a microphone murderin' MC's Let's quote a rhyme from a record I wrote (follow the leader) Yeah - dope Cause everytime I stop it seems ya stuck Soon as ya try to step off ya self-destruct I came to overcome before I'm gone By showin and provin and lettin knowledge be born Then after that I'll live forever - you disagree? You say never? Then follow me! From century to century you'll remember me In history - not a mystery or a memory God by nature, mind raised in Asia Since you was tricked, I have to raise ya From the cradle to the grave, but remember You're not a slave Cause we was put here to be much more than that But we couldn't see it because our mind was trapped But I'm here to break away the chains, take away the pains Remake the brains, reveal my name I guess nobody told you a little knowledge is dangerous It can't be mixed, diluted; it can't be changed or switched Here's a lesson if ya guessing and borrowing Hurry hurry, step right up and keep following The leader </P><P>A furified freestyle, lyrics of fury My third eye makes me shine like jewelry You're just a rent-a-rapper, your rhymes are minute-maid I'll be here when it fade to watch you flip like a renegade I can't wait to break and eliminate On every traitor or snake - so stay awake and follow and follow, because the tempo's a trail The stage is a cage, the mic is a third rail I'm Rakim the Fiend of a Microphone I'm not HIM, so leave my mic alone Soon as the beat is felt, I'm ready to go So fasten your seatbelt, cause I'm about to flow No need to speed slow down to let the leader lead Word to daddy, indeed! The R's a rollin stone, so I'm rollin Directions is told, then the rhymes are stolen Stop buggin', a brother said, dig em, I never dug 'em He couldn't follow the leader long enough so I drug 'em into danger zone, he should arrange his own Face it, it's basic, erase it, change ya tone There's one R in the alphabet It's a one-letter word and it's about to get More complex from one rhyme to the next Eric B be easy on the flex I've been from state to state, followers tailgate Keep comin but you came too late, but I'll wait So back up, regroup, get a grip, come equipped You're the next contestant - clap ya hands, you won a trip! The price is right - don't make a deal too soon How many notes could you name this tune? Follow the Leader is the title, theme, task Now ya know, you don't have to ask Rap is Rhythm And Poetry, cuts create sound effects You might catch up if you follow the records E. wrecks Until then keep eatin and swallowin You better take a deep breath and keep followin The leader. </P><P> </P> |
