Europa (Earth's Cry Heaven's Smile)

그리스 신화에선 제우스의 사랑을 받은 포니시아의 왕녀로
천문학적으로는 목성의 위성중 하나이며 유로파의 표면은 얼음이다.
목성의 4대 위성 가운데 이오 다음으로 목성에 가까우며 가장 작은 위성이다.
1610년 G.갈릴레이가 손수 만든 망원경을 사용해 발견했고
네덜란드 천문학자 마리우스에 의해 이름이 지어졌다.
에우로파라고도 하는데 이 이름은 그리스 신화에서
목성의 영어명인 주피터(제우스)와의 관계에서 유래되었다.
특히 " Europa " 는 기타의 명인 Carlos Santana와
그룹 Santana의 키보드 주자 Tom Coster가 함께 작곡한 곡으로
산타나의 곡중 가장 잘 알려진 곡이다.

You've got to change your evil ways... baby
Before I stop loving you.
You've go to change... baby
And every word that I say, it's true.
You've got me running and hiding
All over town.
You've got me sneaking and peeping
And running you down
This can't go on...
Lord knows you got to change... baby.

When I come home... baby
My house is dark and my pots are cold
You're hanging round... baby
With Jean and Joan and a who knows who
I'm getting tired of waiting and fooling around
I'll find somebody, who won't make me feel like a clown
This can't go on...
Lord knows you got to change

Searching for a good time?
Is that you
Waitin' for all these years?

I can’t keep the rain from comin down

I can’t get out from under
But I wouldn’t want to

Something about you baby
Make me feel

Samba Pa Ti is a song that I wrote when we came back from
Europe the very first time. I was up in my room looking out my
window because I heard this sound. This cat blew a couple of
notes on the saxophone in the back of the alley.

And when I looked out, he was trying to stay up on his feet.
It looked like the whole world was moving around him. And he
was trying to decide between putting his saxophone in his
mouth and putting the bottle of booze from his back pocket
into his mouth.

And I thought "he is a prisoner." He didn't know what to put
in his mouth next - the horn or the bottle of booze, you know.
And it just hit me. It really broke me down because he looked
like all of us at one time or another.

And for some reason, i just heard these lyrics, "through every
step in life you find freedom from within." And then I heard
the melody.

It was one of the first songs that I felt really free, free
enough to forget about anything. You just let it flow through
you. And even though it's very simple, there's still a lot of
emotion in it.

She's a force of nature
That I can't outrun
A devil and a savior all in one
Her eyes can heal me
Or they can make me bleed
Her lips have me addicted to the poetry
Never really knowing just who I am
And I confess that I don't mind at all
Cause I would trade the world away
To stay inside this dream
I'll never find a better place to fall

[Chorus:]
I got a lover, a brown skin girl
She's got a magic of another world
And every time that I think of her, I'm on fire - fire
She knows a way, a spirtual flow
Of making me dizzy like vertigo
Her cinnamon kisses melt my soul like fire, yeah

I get a strong vibration
When she just says my name
And it drives me crazy
'Cause I don't know if she feels the same

But she likes to breathe some mystery in all she does
She laughs and says that I'm under her spell
Now I won't lie
I enjoy the ride
And pray it never ends
I feel her deeper than anything I've felt

[Chorus]

I can't help but crave another taste of her
Like a drowning man that's praying for the rain
And how she worked her way inside
I'll never understand
She's too beautiful to ever take the blame
But she'll always fan the flame

[Chorus]

A canta, a bailar vamos a bazilar
A canta, a bailar vamos a bazilar
A canta, a bailar vamos a bazilar
A canta, a bailar vamos a bazilar

A bailar con Santana
Todo mundo vamos a disfrutar
A bailar con Santana
Que mi gente le quiere celebrar

A veses siento que
Yo ya no le puedo seguir
La carga esta muy dura y ya
Yo no le tengo fe pa llegar

Entonces pongo yo
Musica que me hace feliz
Me llenda de amor Y luz
Siento que le voy a llegar
He pa gosar

A bailar con Santana
Todo mundo vamos a disfrutar
A bailar con Santana
Que mi gente le quiere celebrar

Yo ya apprendi mi leccion
Y no voy a hacer le mismo error
Y voy a continuar a vivir
Con gente que me adora

Y tu amor es la goma
Que pone todo en su lugar
Mi vida esta formada ya
Alrededor de tu presencia mi amor
He a gozar

Yo no cave duda
Vamos ya Colombia, Vamos ya Boriqua
Vamos ya Tijuiana, Vamos ya Peruana

[Verse 1:]
Going back to the memories
Reminiscing 'bout you and me
Thinking how it used to be
It's plain and clear I treated you bad
But girl you know that I care
Every relation(ship) have wear and tear..
Just draw near girl and try to hear and listen what my heart says.

Many days and many nights
Many heartbreaks... many fights
Many wrongs but so many rights
So girl don't let this love die
Never meant to 'cause you no pain,
Girl I never meant to treat you lame.
Gimme one more chance rewind come back again.
Don't let this love die.

[Chorus:]
Just Cry Baby Cry
(Don't cry no more)
Cause every tear that flows falls into the ocean
And rises to the sky
And then the rain will come
Right before the sun shines...

[Verse 2:]
Can you feel me reaching out to you girl, can you hear my open thoughts
Never want (to) disrespect you girl don't let this come break us apart.
'Cause I know I would die without you, my girl can you hear my broken heart.
It's calling out to the good times that we had back at the start.

Baby... (Don't call me baby...)
You know I need you in my life daily. (You know you played me...)
I was a player but now your love changed me. (Dead wrong...)
I'm going crazy (I'm gone)... Never thought losing you would be so hard

[Chorus:]
It's your turn to cry baby cry
(Don't cry no more)
Cause every tear that flows falls into the ocean
And rises to the sky
And then the rain will come
Right before the sun shines...

[Tag:]
So let go
And move on
What we were
Is now undone
My tears have all dried
It's your turn now to cry...

Bridge
You're losing your love and your trust for me girl
And you know, I would go to the ends of the world.
If you wanted... Just like we started.
Girl 'cause I don't want to fight no more.
Make it like it was before.

Chat to her Santana! (i.e. talk to her... tell her how you feel... play your guitar for her!)

[Chorus:]
Gracias por el fuego
Gracias por el calor briante
Llevo siempre por dentro
Dentro de mi Corazon

[1st Verse:]
Me diste la liberdad
Para buscar mi realidad - Y deal
Encontre la claridad
Y la sinceridad, Y la unidad

A precio todo que me as dado
Tanta lections que me as ensenado
Inconditionalmente me as ofrecido
Tu carino - Y tu amor divino

[2nd Verse:]
Me aquerdo de esos dias
Sacando sobre la mismo
Con una sonrisa
Y me abrasaste, Y me dejiste
Que el dia de me suerte, De pronto llegara

[Bridge:]
Eres la rais divina
Algolio soy la rama
Eres la luz Y la oscuridad
Para ti te dico
Esta melodia pa ti

Sometimes, I imagine the world without you
But most times, I'm just so happy
that I ever found you
It's a complicated web,
that you weave inside my head
So much pleasure with such pain
How we always, always stay the same

I'm feelin' the way you cross my mind
And you save me in the nick of time
I'm ridin' the highs, I'm diggin' the lows
cause at least I feel alive

I've never faced so many emotional days
But my life is good I'm feelin' you
I'm feelin' you

You go, and then I can finally breathe in
cause baby I know, in the end you're never leavin'
Well we're rarely ever sane,
I drive you crazy and you do the same
But your fire fills my soul
And it wounds me up like no one knows

Cause I'm feelin' the way you cross my mind
And you save me in the nick of time
I'm ridin' the highs, I'm diggin' the lows
cause at least I feel alive
I've never faced so many emotional days
But my life is good I'm feelin' you
I'm feelin' you

I'm feelin' the way you cross my mind
And you save me in the nick of time
I'm ridin' the highs, I'm diggin' the lows
cause at least I feel alive
I've never faced so many emotional days
I'm feelin' you I'm feelin' you
I'm feelin' you I'm feelin' you

Oh I'm feelin' the way that you cross my mind
And the way that you save me in the nick of time
Oh I'm feeling the way when you walk on by
I feel light, I feel love, I feel butterflies

I feel butterflies -

SHE SAID, ILL FEEL STRANDED
AND I CAN`T TELL ANYMORE
IF I`M COMING OR I`M GOING
IT`S NOT HOW I PLANNED IT
I`VE GOT A KEY TO THE DOOR
BUT IT JUST WONT OPEN

AND I KNOW, I KNOW, I KNOW
PART OF ME SAYS LET IT GO
THAT LIFE HAPPENS FOR A REASON
BUT I DON`T, I DON`T, I DON`T
CAUSE IT NEVER WORKED BEFORE
BUT THIS TIME, THIS TIME
I`M GONNA TRY ANYTHING TO JUST FEEL BETTER

CHORUS
TELL ME WHAT TO DO
YOU KNOW I CANT SEE THROUGH
THE HAZE AROUND ME
AND ILL DO ANYTHING TO JUST FEEL BETTER
I CAN`T FIND MY WAY
GOD I NEED A CHANGE
AND ILL DO ANYTHING TO JUST FEEL BETTER
ANY LITTLE THING TO JUST FEEL BETTER

SHE SAID I NEED YOU TO HOLD ME
I`M A LITTLE FAR FROM THE SHORE
AND I`M AFRAID OF SINKING
YOU`RE THE ONLY ONE WHO KNOWS ME
AND WHO DOESN`T IGNORE,
THAT MY SOUL IS LEAKING

AND I KNOW, I KNOW, I KNOW
PART OF ME SAYS LET IT GO
EVERYTHING MUST HAVE ITS SEASON
AROUND, AROUND IT GOES
EVERYDAY`S THE ONE BEFORE
BUT THIS TIME, THIS TIME,
I`M GONNA TRY ANYTHING TO JUST FEEL BETTER

CHORUS REPEAT

BRIDGE
I`M TIRED OF HOLDING ON
TO ALL THE THINGS I OUIGHTA LEAVE BEHIND
IT`S REALLY GETTING OLD AND
I THINK I NEED A LITTLE HELP THIS TIME

Boom Boom Boom
Santana's in the room
Boom Boom Boom
Mary J's in the room
Boom Boom Ba-Boom Boom
Big Boi, Beat Bullies let's ride...

[Chorus:]
I got a man and he's so good to me
I give love and he gives it back to me
Say it for me once if you know what I mean
I said my man's what a man's supposed to be

I got a man and he's so good to me
I give love and and he gives it back to me
Say it for me once if you know what I mean
I said my man's what a man's supposed to be

[Mary Verse 1:]
He opens his arms and holds on to me
He tells me he loves me and oh I feel it
And all that I am and all that I'll be
Is there in his eyes when I hear him sayin' please

[Sleepy Pick Up:]
Who loves you baby?

[Big Boi Verse 1]
I do, I do trust you
See see this ain't just bout having sex
I don't even have to touch you
But you lustful I'm buggin'
You feel me bulgin' while we huggin'
We all over one another (scattered, covered, smothered)
You're my choosey lover
Never loving others only rubbing me (me)
Satisfy Big to the utmost mentally and physically (ly)
Every king must crown a queen to make his kingdom mean anything
Through thick and slim we gon' win we a team by any means y'all

[Chorus 2x]

[Mary Verse 2:]
The touch of his hand the sound of his voice
The way that he loves me 'til he knows I feel it
And all through the night forever rejoice
The angel above me starts to sweetly sing to me

[Sleepy Pick Up:]
Who loves you baby?

[Big Boi Verse 2:]
I do, I do adore you
I'm the best man for the job
Another man couldn't do nothing for you
Cause you're spicy just like me
We come together like thunder and lightning
With all of that scratching and biting
So exciting it's frightening
I'm your do-right man and you're my do right not my just for tonight woman
Making me feel just like a baker quick to put something in your oven
Not no dumplin's or no stuffin' but our own lil' flesh and blood'n
A bouncin' lil' baby something pretty girl or handsome son child

[Chorus 2x]

My man's what a man's supposed to be...
I got a man...

If you hear the spirit
knocking open up and let it shine

If you hear the spirit
knocking open up and let it shine
If you hear the spirit
knocking open up and let it shine

Woke up this morning
With this pain inside my heart
Never thought the day would come
When I would leave you in the dark

You told me that you needed me
And I showed you I'd be there
But now you've got me wrapped up
In this crazy love affair

See lately I've been thinking
About the things you do to me
How we've been through all these ups and downs
And I was to blind to see

But now my vision's better
So I'm writing you this letter
By the time you get home, I'll be gone
And my life will be much better

It's one of those days
These are games that we play

There's one thing I want you to know now
Before I pack my bags and go
Girl, you got it all wrong, got it all wrong
Got it all twisted, baby

I gave you everything
Even gave you my ring
For better or for worse
Baby gave you my name

Been through every season
Summer, winter, spring, and fall
And one thing you can say is
I was with you through it all

I'll miss your touch, I'll miss your ways
These games with love that we can't play
I've gotta walk away, I've gotta leave
So I can find my way to still believe

'Cause I love you too much
And in no love with no trust

There's one thing I want you to know now
Before I pack my bags and go
Girl, you got it all wrong, got it all wrong
Got it all twisted, baby

One thing I want you to know now
Before I pack my bags and blow town
Girl you got it all wrong, got it all wrong
Got it all twisted

Lethal injection
Bittersweet affection
All in the wrong direction
But we had our connection

Try not to be affected
Oh, but I guess I was
Now I know what my momma meant
When she told me 'bout love

Take your time, don't rush in
Get to close and you'll get burned
But I got a heartache
You live, you learn

Thought that I was cheated
But baby not this time
It's just your insecurities
You're messing with your mind

You're driving me away
And there's nothing left to say

There's one thing I want you to know now
Before I pack my bags and go
Girl, you got it all wrong, got it all wrong
Got it all twisted, baby

One thing I want you to know now
Before I pack my bags and blow town
Girl you got it all wrong, got it all wrong
Got it all twisted

Talk about the walk away
Baby it's about that time
Packing up everything I own
Taking everything

Talk about the walk away
Baby it's about that time
Packing up everything I own
Taking everything

Talk about the walk away
Baby it's about that time
Packing up everything I own
Taking everything

Talk about the walk away
Baby it's about that time
Packing up everything I own
Taking everything

Talk about the walk away
Baby it's about that time
Packing up everything I own
Taking everything

Maria Maria
She reminds me of a west side story
Growing up in Spanish Harlem
She`s living the life just like a movie star

Maria Maria


She fell in love in East L.A.
To the sounds of a guitar, Yeah, yeah,
Played by Carlos Santana


Stop the looting, stop the shooting
Pick pocking on the corner
See as the rich is getting richer
The poor is getting poorer

Se mira Maria on the corner
Thinking of ways to make it better
In my mailbox there`s an eviction letter
Somebody just said see you later

Ahora venga mama chola Mama chola


I said a la favella los colores
The streets are getting hotter
There is no water
To put out the fire
Mi canto la esperanza
Se mira Maria on the corner
Thinking of ways to make it better
Then I looked up in the sky
Hoping of days of paradise

Ahora venga mama chola Mama chola


Maria you know you`re my lover
When the wind blows I can feel you
Through the weather and even when we`re apart
It feels like we`re together

Hey now, all you sinners
Put your lights on, put your lights on
Hey now, all you lovers
Put your lights on, put your lights on
Hey now, all you killers
Put your lights on, put your lights on
Hey now, all you children
Leave your lights on, you better leave your lights on
Cause there's a monster living under my bed
Whispering in my ear
There's an angel, with a hand on my head
She say I've got nothing to fear
There's a darkness living deep in my soul
I still got a purpose to serve
So let your light shine, deep into my home
God, don't let me lose my nerve
Lose my nerve
Hey now, hey now, hey now, hey now
Wo oh hey now, hey now, hey now, hey now
Hey now, all you sinners
Put your lights on, put your lights on
Hey now, all you children
Leave your lights on, you better leave your lights on
Because there's a monster living under my bed
Whispering in my ear
There's an angel, with a hand on my head
She say's I've got nothing to fear
La illaha illa Allah
We all shine like stars
La illaha illa Allah
We all shine like stars
Then we fade away..

Man it’s a hot one
Like seven inches from the midday sun
I hear your whisper and the words melt everyone
But you stay so cool
My Munequita, my spanish Harlem
Mona Lisa
You’re my reason for reason
The step in my groove

And if you said this life
ain’t good enough
I would give my world to lift you up
I could change my lift to better
suit your mood
Cause you’re so smooth

And it’s just like the ocean
under the moon
Well that’s the same as the emotion
that I get from you
You got the kind of lovin that could be so smooth
Give me your heart make it real
Or else forget about it

Well I’ll tell you one thing
If you would leave it be a crying shame
In every breath and every word
I hear your name calling me out
Out from the barrio,you hear my rhythm on your radio
You feel the turning of the
world so soft and slow
Turning you round and round

It’s midnight -
And I don’t want to see you leaving
Thought of you -
going back - back to him -
is killing me
Baby please - how can you torture my heart
We both know - where we belong
we belong here in each other’s arms

Come with me and
we can make the heavens sing
Can’t deny the forces that you feel within
Come with me and
we can make the heavens sing
"Let me love you tonight"
"Let me love you tonight"

(if you)
Go we’ll never know - what tomorrow brings
Got to be a way to end this - suffering
Come with me and
we can make the heavens sing
"Let me love you tonight"
"Let me love you tonight"

Baby I - I don’t wanna see you hurting…
(no more)
Gotta do what’s right - ’cos we can’t -
can’t go on
like this anymore
I’m on my knees - you know it’s over with him
So why go back - when all that you need
You know that it’s right here with me

Come with me and
we can make the heavens sing
Can’t deny the forces that you feel within
Come with me and

Got to be a way to end this - suffering

"Let me love you tonight"

Ho Maria Maria
She reminds me of a west side story
Growing up in Spanish Harlem
She's living the life just like a movie star

Ho Maria Maria
She fell in love in East L.A.
To the sounds of the guitar, yeah, yeah
Played by Carlos Santana

Stop the looting, stop the shooting
Pick pocking on the corner
See as the rich is getting richer
The poor is getting poorer

Se mira Maria on the corner
Thinking of ways to make it better
In my mailbox there's an eviction letter
Somebody just said see you later

Ahora vengo mama chola mama chola
Ahora vengo mama chola

I said a la favella los colores
The streets are getting hotter
There is no water to put out the fire
Mi canto la esperanza

Thinking of ways to make it better
Then I looked up in the sky
Hoping of days of paradise

Ahora vengo mama chola mama chola
Ahora vengo mama chola

When the wind blows I can feel you
Through the weather and even when we're apart
It feels like we're together

Lluvia de sol
Como Una Bendicion
La vida renace con su luz
La primavera ya llego


Todo es asi
Regreso a la raiz
Tiempo de inquieta juventud
En primavera ya


La tierra negra se vuelve verde
Y las montanas y el desierto
Un bello jardin


Como la semilla
Lleva nueva vida
Hay en esta primavera una nueva era


En el aire de este nuevo universo
Hoy se respira libertad
En primavera ya


La tierra negra se vuelve verde
Y las montanas y el desierto
Un bello jardin


Como la semilla
Leeva nueva vida
Hay en esta primavera una nueva era

Man it's a hot one
Like seven inches from the midday sun
I hear you whisper
and the words melt everyone
But you stay so cool
My Muñequita,
my Spanish Harlem Mona Lisa
You're my reason for reason
The step in my groove

*And if you said this life ain't good enough
I would give my world to lift you up
I could change my life to better suit your mood
Cause you're so smooth

And it's like the ocean under the moon
Well that's the same as the emotion
that I get from you
You got the kind of lovin' that could be
so smooth
Give me your heart
Make it real
Or else forget about it

Well I'll tell you one thing
If you would leave it be a crying shame
In every breath and every word
I hear your name calling me out
Out from the barrio, you hear my rhythm
on your radio
You feel the turning of the world so soft
and slow
Turning you round and round

*Repeat

And it's like the ocean under the moon
Well that's the same as the emotion
that I get from you
You got the kind of lovin' that could be
so smooth
Give me your heart
Make it real
Or else forget about it

Or let's forget about it (repeat)

Since the moment i spotted you,
Like walking round with little wings
on my shoes
My stomach's filled with the butterflies...
ooo and it's alright
Bouncing round from cloud to cloud
I got the feeling like
I'm never going to come down
If I said I didn't like it then you know I'd lied
ooo

*Everytime I try to talk to you
I get tongue-tied
Turns out that everything I say to you
Comes out wrong and never comes out right

**So I'll say 'why don't you and I get togehter
and take on the world and be together forever
Heads we will and tails we'll try again'
So I say 'why don't you and I hold each other
and fly to the moon and straight on to heaven
Cause without you
they're never going to let me in'

When's this fever going to break?
I think I've handled more than any man can take
I'm like a love-sick puppy chasing you around
ooo and it's alright
Bouncing round from cloud to cloud
I got the feeling like
I'm never going to come down
If said I didn't like it then you know I'd lied

*Repeat

**Repeat

And slowly I begin to realize
this is never gonna end
Right about the same you walk by
And I say 'Oh here we go again, oh'

*Repeat

**Repeat (2x)

You got to free all the people in South Africa...
You got to make life worth living in Soweto
You got to free all the people in South Africa
You got to make life worthwhile
Give reason to smileFreedom is a birthright
Given by Jah to Man
You can not claim it...This you must understand
Who are you to decide...Who has to give it up
Know it in your heart...That it’s wrong
They’ve had enough
:
Slavery is brutal...It steals your identity
Wherever it’s living...Suffer humanity
What leads you to believe...You can treat people so
You know it isn’t right...Give up the fight
Let them Go!
It’s not right...This hate for Life you’re teaching
No more fight...We’re all in this together
You’ve lost sight...You’ll never find what your
Soul is seeking
You...you abolish...Apartheid

In this world there is so
Much anger
Our lives are in danger
We are all living in fears
We?ve got to stop the tearsLife is for living
Why must we wait
We all need some loving
Then why do we hate?In South Africa things are
Still the same
The face of humanity still
Hasn?t changed
People have to fight to live together
And share with one another
:
We can change this to be
A better place for all
If we listen to others when they call
Give a shoulder to lean on
When they fall
Let us bring down the
Apartheid wallInnocent people pay with their lives
?Cause the truth it cuts like a knife
Mandela?s life is wasted in jail
Raise your voices for freedom
Woza Mandela

You've got to change your evil ways... baby
Before I stop loving you.

All over town.
You've got me sneaking and peeping
And running you down
This can't go on...
Lord knows you got to change... baby.

When I come home... baby
My house is dark and my pots are cold
You're hanging round... baby
With Jean and Joan and a who knows who
I'm getting tired of waiting and fooling around
I'll find somebody, who won't make me feel like a clown
This can't go on...
Lord knows you got to change

This is America
POD and Santana live in La Casa
Live and direct for you and yours
Yo America, America
Was it the way that she looked at me
She had caught my eye
She stole my heart she freed my mind
The way we loved it was magical
Truly wonderful
It was me and your so beautiful
And I know that you feel this too
Will our dreams come true
I believe in you
Show me the way to my better days
What's the price to pay
If I follow you
America, America
Will you come back to me baby please don't away don't let me go
America, America
Can you get back to me baby don't run away I need you so
I trust in you still you walk away
You just ran away
I thought our love would never change
The way you move had me hypnotized
Now I realize
I fell again the same old lies
Plans you change the present rearranged
If we don't know the path the future we can't attain
So I maintain, dealt my hands so I deal with it
Know what is truth myself
I stay real with it

(Featuring Macy Gray)

Standing in the doorway
Beneath the moonlit sky
An angel stood before me
And looked me in the eye
Aye aye

Aye aye aye
Aye aye aye
Aye aye aye

She moved up right beside me
And we began to dance
The groove was all around us
The slipped into a trance
Aye aye

Aye aye aye
Aye aye aye
Aye aye aye

[Bridge - spanish lyric]
[Middle section - african lyric]

Dancing to the rhythm
Moving to the beat
Everybody's singing
You could feel the heat
Aye aye

I'm telling you it's over
Now there's an angel
Holding me
My way's easy
Even if you're fallen
Oh you're struggling
There's still beauty
In what we do

So que sera
Let's go sailing on
There's a wise man
In every fool

*I say come back
Come in from the cold
Into the warm
I feel like fire
Guiding you back home
As darkness falls

So everyone stands in line
Cos they wanna stay alive
To wait alone
No dog no bone
And then you find it's over
Still it tears your heart
To slip away
From the crowd

But if you have
What it takes
To return to where
All the world
Knows your name
Then que sera
Let's go sailing on
There's a wise man
In every fool

* Repeat

So everyone stands in line
Cos they wanna stay alive
To wait alone
No dog no bone
And then you find it's over
Still it tears your heart
To slip away
From the crowd

But if you have
What it takes
To return to where
All the world
Knows your name
Then que sera
Let's go sailing on
There's a wise man
In every fool

* Repeat

I say come home
Leave it all behind
And settle down
I feel my love
Can give me what I want
For all time

So que sera
Let's go sailing on
There's a wise man
In every fool

* Repeat

Its midnight - And I dont want to see you leaving
Thought of you - going back - back to him -
is killing me
Baby please - how can you torture my heart
We both know - where we belong
we belong here in each others arms

Chorus
Come with me and we can make the heavens sing
Cant deny the forces that you feel within
Come with me and we can make the heavens sing

I am a victim of my time
A product of my age
There's no choosing my direction
I was a holy man but now
With all my trials behind me
I am weak in my conviction

And so I walk to try to get away
Knowing that someday I will finally have to face
The fear that will come from knowing that
The one thing I had left was you
And now you're gone

You were a victim of my crimes
A product of my rage
You were a beautiful distraction
I kept you locked away outside
Let misery provide
And now I am ashamed

And so I walk to try to find a space
Where I can be alone to live with my mistakes
And the fear that will come
From knowing that the one thing
I had left was you
And now you're gone

Chorus:
Is there nothing at all
That I can do to turn your heart
Is there nothing to lean on
That could help erase the scars
Te quiero - me quiero
And I could use a little strength before I fall
Is there nothing at all

I am victim of my time
A product of the age
You alone are my obsession
You were the one I left behind
You've been heavy on my mind
It's been a lonely road I've traveled

And so I walk to try to get away
Knowing that someday I will finally have to face
The fear that will come from knowing that
The one thing I had left was you
And now you're gone

Chorus:
Is there nothing at all
That I can do to turn your heart
Is there nothing to lean on
That could help erase the scars
Te quiero - me quiero
And I could use a little strength before I fall
Is there nothing at all

I've been searching for freedom
I've been looking for someone
In the dreams of my heart, I see your face
Calling me into the light

You're the vision of beauty
You're so radiant and lovely
I just can't believe you're here with me
Your touch is my ectasy - my love

Looking into the future
We can see the beginning
Children living in peace and harmony
That is the way it will be

Way down here on these dead end streets
People live in doubt and fear
And it kept them down for oh so long
Now their time is getting near
I don't know where
I don't know how
I don't know when
But I'll tell you right now


One of these days you'll cross that line
The people gonna take you by surprise
The're gonna look their leaders in the eye (yeah)
One of these days you'll cross that line
The people gonna think with their own minds
They're gonna leave the system for behind (yeah)

How many of us spend our lives
On the outside lookin in
Well it seems they got us all convinced
That we're never gonna win
I don't know where
I don't know how
I don't know when
But I'll tell you right now


Do you really think we'll ever stop
Lookin for as brighter day
While it looks today like you're on top
It could neverstay that way

You know it isn't easy
For these thoughts here to leave me
There are no words to describe it
In french or english
Cause diamonds they fade
And flowers they bloom
And I'm telling you


That these feelings won't go away
They've been knockin me sideways
They've been knockin me out litely
Whenever you come around me
These feelings won't go away
They've been knockin me sideways
I keep thinking in a moment that
Time will take them away
But these feelings won't go away

Tell me just what you want me to be
One kiss and boom you're the only one for me
So please tell me why don't you come around no more
Cause right now I'm crying outside
the door of your candy store

*It just takes a little bit of this
A little bit of that
It started with a kiss
Now we're up to bat
A little bit of laughs
A little bit of pain
I'm telling you, my babe
It's all in the game of love

This, whatever you make it to be
Sunshine set on this cold lonely sea
So please baby try and use me for what I'm good for
It ain't sayin' goodbye that's knocking
down the door of your candy store

*It's all in this game of love
You roll me
Control me
Console me
Please hold me
You guide me
Divide me
Into what...

Make me feel good, yeah

So please tell me why don't you come around no more
Cause right now I'm dying outside
the door of your loving store

* Repeat

It's all in this game of love
It's all in the game of love
Yeah, in the game of love

Roll me
Control me
Please hold me
(make me feel good, yeah)

Since the moment I spotted you
Like walking around with little wings on my shoes
My stomach's filled with the butterflies...and it's alright
Bouncing round from cloud to cloud
I got the feeling like I'm never going to come down
If I said I didn't like it then you know I'd lied

Everytime I try to talk to you
I get tongue-tied
Seems like everything I say to you
Comes out wrong and never comes out right

So I'll say 'why don't you and I get together and take on the world and be together forever
Heads we will and tails we'll try again
So I say why don't you and I hold each other and fly to the moon and straight on to heaven
Cause without you they're never going to let me in
And slowly I begin to realize this is never going to end
Right about the same you walk by
And I say 'Oh here we go again'

When's this ever going to break?
I think I've handled more than any man can take
I'm like a love-sick puppy chasing you around
And it's alright
Bouncing round from cloud to cloud
I got the feeling like I'm never going to come down
If I said I didn't like it then you know I'd lied

Stay with me baby
And that's all I ask of you
And I know that someday
You won't remember
The way that this moment feels to you
Don't let it go
Don't turn your back on what you think you know
You never know you know
Don't leave it alone
Cause I need you to cling to

Cause you are my kind
You're all that I want
Here in this life
Until we are gone
Our breath and our skin
Our hearts and our minds
They're one and the same
You are my kind

Well call on me baby
If you should ever need someone
To help get your head straight
I'll be your resident all night
Sure am glad just having you around
Well all that I know
When you find love you never let it go
You never know you know
Without you I'm lost
I get scattered
I'm shattered

Cause you are my kind
You're all that I want
Here in this life
Until we are gone
Our breath and our skin
Our hearts and our minds
They're one and the same
Cause you are my kind
We're one and the same
You are my kind

Don't let it go
Don't turn your back on what you think you know
You never know you know
Don't leave it alone
Cause I need you to cling to

Cause you are my kind
You're all that I want
Here in this life
Until we are gone
Our breath and our skin
Our hearts and our minds
They're one and the same
Cause you are my kind

I love and our life
My heart and my soul
Need you tognight
Your love makes me whole
And it's all I can stand
Until you come home
I need you tonight
Cause you are my kind
I need you tonight
Cause you are my kind

Oh, oh, oh ,oh you are my kind
Oh, oh, oh ,oh you are my kind

Tell me
Just what you want me to be
One kiss
And boom you're the only one for me
So please tell me why don't you come around no more
Cause right now I'm crying
Outside the door of your candy store

[Chorus]
It just takes a little bit of this
A little bit of that
It started with a kiss
Now we we're up to bat
A little bit of laughs
A little bit of pain
I'm telling you, my babe
It's all in the game of love....

..Is whatever you make it to be
Sunshine set on this cold lonely sea
So please baby try and use me for what I'm good for
It ain't sayin' goodbye it's knocking down the door of your candy store

[Chorus]

It's all in this game of love

You roll me
Control me
Console me
Please hold me
You guide me
Divide me
Into two...

[Guitar solo]

So please tell me why don't you come around no more
Cause right now I'm dying outside the door of your loving store

[Repeat Chorus]

It's all in this game of love
It's all in the game of love
Yeah, in the game of love

Roll me
Control me
Please hold me
(Make me feel good, yeah)

I'm out here on my own
On my own...

She reminds me of a west side story
Growing up in Spanish Harlem
She`s living the life just like a movie star

She fell in love in East L.A.
To the sounds of a guitar, Yeah, yeah,
Played by Carlos Santana


Stop the looting, stop the shooting
Pick pocking on the corner
See as the rich is getting richer
The poor is getting poorer

Se mira Maria on the corner
Thinking of ways to make it better
In my mailbox there`s an eviction letter
Somebody just said see you later

Ahora venga mama chola Mama chola


I said a la favella los colores
The streets are getting hotter
There is no water
To put out the fire
Mi canto la esperanza
Se mira Maria on the corner
Thinking of ways to make it better
Then I looked up in the sky
Hoping of days of paradise

Ahora venga mama chola Mama chola


Maria you know you`re my lover
When the wind blows I can feel you
Through the weather and even when we`re apart
It feels like we`re together

Maria Maria
She reminds me of a west side story
Growing up in Spanish Harlem
She`s living the life just like a movie star
