There were times when I thought there was nothin' in this world There was nothin' in this world for me Everywhere I looked there was trouble in my life Trouble far as I could see Hey there's a man doin' alright What's his philosophy? He come over here and whispered in my ear
You're the Buddha, you're the Christ, You're the Mohammed, and the Mother Mary
So who am I so nervous and shy To be brilliant and talented It's the light not the dark that frightens us most And the power lies in our head You playin' small doesn't help at all The world need the things you give Switch yourself on, turn the pressure on
You're the Buddha, you're the Christ, You're the Mohammed, and the Mother Mary
There are times when I think there's plenty in this world There's plenty in this world for me Anytime I see trouble in my life It becomes an opportunity Now there's a chance to make the world dance You do it unconsciously Help this Winter turn into Spring
You're the Buddha, you're the Christ, You're the Mohammed, and the Mother Mary
I want to be... The coffee in your pot I want to be the shower in the morning that's steamy and hot
I want to be... The cherry that paints your lips I want to be the stick shift at your fingertips
What ever I think of its never enough to show you my love I want to be your everything!
I want to be... The wine that swirls around your tongue I want to be the Harley that you sit upon
I want to be... The Elvis that makes you scream and shake I want to be the velvet that hugs your pretty shape
What ever I think of its never enough to show you my love I want to be your everything!
The trouble is you just don't know who the hell I am But I'll change that little detail, if I can
What ever I think of its never enough to show you my love I want to be... I want to be your everything!
[solo]
The trouble is you don't even know who the hell I am But I'll change that little detail, if I can
What ever I think of its never enough to show you my love I want to be... I want to be... I want to be your everything!
I want to be your everything! (that's all just everything) I want to be your everything! (that's all just everything) I want to be your... I want to be your... I want to be your everything! (that's all just everything)
The tide is turning Its coming from the street Read your own wisdom Not the headlines Don't let them tell you Its fine the way it is Its our agenda We know better
Let the people have their say Let the people show the way Every woman child and man Has the power in this land
Now don't you worry The future will unfold If we are open and ready We all have choices Not just the chosen few So raise your voices Hold them steady
Let the people have their say Let the people show the way Every woman child and man Has the power in this land
(Let the people)
The time has come now To realize our dream To claim our future...together
Let the people have their say (Let the people have their say) Let the people show the way (Let the people show the way) Every woman child and man (Every woman child and man) Has the power in this land (Has the power in this land)

* If you love You know you're gonna feel the hurt See the flowers Growin' from the muddy earth
You never see the sun You're never gonna feel the rain With your life under glass In the middle lane You'll never feel the joy Never feel the pain
*Repeat
Try to build a house on top of the highest tree It's dangerous and a bit risky But what about the view See the clouds and the mountains too
*Repeat
Get your hands dirty Get a little insane Come out and play with me Barefoot in the rain
If you love You know you're gonna feel the hurt (Feel the joy, feel the pain) See the flowers Growin' from the muddy earth (You see the sun and then you see the rain)
You never see the sun You're never gonna feel the rain With your life under glass In the middle lane You'll never feel the joy Never feel the pain
If you love You know you're gonna feel the hurt (Feel the joy, feel the pain) See the flowers Growin' from the muddy earth (You see the sun and then you see the rain) If you love You know you're gonna feel the hurt
Growin' from the muddy earth (Feel the joy, feel the pain) Never feel the pain (You see the sun and then you see the rain)
Sleep my angel It is time for bed I will be there To watch over you I'll protect you from the world And the voices in your head I'll be with you With my life I will defend I'll be with you I will be there in the end
And I'll cry your tears As you feel every pain Coax out the sun From the endless rain Thought I'd never feel So much love for another I'll be with you I will be there in the end
Love that is there Through the false and the real Love that desires No reward and no gain As I hold your tiny hand You'll never know how I feel There's a promise With my life I will defend I will be there with you 'til the end
And I'll cry your tears As you feel every pain Coax out the sun From the endless rain Thought I'd never feel So much love for another I'll be with you I will be there 'til the end
All that potential Bursting inside Let me help you on your journey Let me help you with life
Heaven is a somewhere locked inside and I must find the key Wish I'd never locked the door Ordinary things in life are where this heaven likes to be Hold the sky, feet on the floor Hold the sky, feet on the floor
We make our sun to shine We make our space and time We make the weather We make it change
Hell is not somewhere but a state of mind I choose to be When my faith in life has gone Cruelty rebounds to hurt itself puts shackles on the free Vicious circle carries on Hold the sky, feet on the floor
We make our sun to shine We make our space and time We make the weather We make it change We make the weather We make it change
Time to judge the act don't judge the actor of the circumstance Time to free compassion's world Life is not the end we're passing through like bubbles on the sea Time to learn and time to mend Hold the sky, feet on the floor
We make our sun to shine We make our space and time We make the weather We made a change We make the weather We make a change
Soon the warm night breezes roll on in A steamy blanket for the shore This is streetlight time You said you were mine So the fool believes What the night conceives
The light of love is in your eyes Is in your smile again Is in your life again
Was a time when love grew cold for you Turned your back on memories
I was there for you I will see you through Darkest hours fade The promises we made Were not the kind to fade away We'll face another day We'll face another day When that was yesterday
Will the ocean rollers bring you home Or will they take you out to sea This is real-time And you are still mine The fool that loves his dreams Breaks the cruelest schemes
The light of love is in your eyes Is in your smile again Is in your life again Back in your smile again Back in your life again
I can see you On your wedding day With the one you love To share the way A life ahead of you Youth left behind Go out and make yourself Some memories
Dispair and pleasure Faced at every turn And there's children To save from harm's way Three thousand doorways Reveal a thousand more Treasure each moment Forever more
I promise to love you and do my best for you I need you to help me to find my strength Walk with me all through my life My lover my husband my wife Share this journey with me Write this story with me
Life comes and it will go And there's no time to sit and watch the grass grow When we are old and grey you know we'll say We went and made ourselves some memories
We're starting our life We're starting together now I need you to help me to find my strength Walk with me all through my life My lover my husband my wife Share this journey with me Write this story with me
I don't know but I've been told There's a place where dreams are bought and sold I'd like to steal me a dream with you Together we can sail the oceans blue Do you feel like I do? Don't get me wrong But I need your love
And I feel like dreaming on But I wake to find you gone
Hope you like the things I say I look forward to the day When I can take you into my life One day you just might say you'll be my wife And I don't want to push I don't want to rush you But I need your love
And I feel like dreaming on But I wake to find you gone And I feel like dreaming ...
Throw this caution to the wind Be my lover, be my friend If it goes wrong we'll start anew What else are we going to do?
And I feel like dreaming on But I wake to find you gone And I feel like dreaming on But I wake to find you gone And I feel like dreaming on
If you find a time when things just seem to fall apart And there's no way to keep a cheery face When the sight of your own reflection only breaks your heart And all your dreams have given up the chase
Pick up the telephone You know I'm always home Any old time of night or day Let me be the first to know Let me be the first to know Let me be the first to know
If you find a time when you just have to walk away Because of a call to pastures new You're in need of some fresh words to wish you on your way You need to fly on up and touch the moon
Sharing this temporary weight No time to hesitate I will be everything you need Let me be the first to know Let me be the first to know Let me be the first to know Let me be the first ...
We're water breaking on an endless wave Potential bursting from the sea Compassion is what sets our minds apart Be cheerful when you break The chains of morality
Oo, sharing this welcome weight Don't even hesitate I will be everything you need Let me be the first to know Let me be the first to know Let me be the first to know Let me be the first to know Let me be the first one to know
What freezes love in your eyes What steals the force from your life What holds us ransom tonight What stops you seeing yourself? Only fear can stand On potential's hands
This is the greatest day of your life If you make it And the old spells you know They can be broken Nothing to fear Nothing to fear
The greatest faults can be beaten The grandest problems defeated Impossible choices completed Infinite pain will be treated Only fear can stand On potential's hands
This is the greatest day of your life And we made it And the old spells you know 'Cause they can be broken Nothing to fear Nothing to fear
This is the greatest day of your life And we've made it Break the old spells Oh, let them be broken Nothing to fear No, nothing to fear
This is the greatest day Break the old spells and throw them away Break the old spells Don't y'know they can be broken No, Nothing to fear Nothing to fear Nothing to fear Nothing to fear
Bring me down to earth Take this weight from tired shoulders Kiss me tenderly Let me drown in waves of your love
You part the trees so I Can cherish things that matter Your single voice sounds through A room of din and chatter Oh take me home When the streetlights shine above
Safe in your arms So simple to me Safe in your arms Oh so temporary Safe in you arms Oh so tenderly Not one of the lonely tonight
Flying hectically Through a cloud of buts and maybes Passing frantically Over nights and days unended
You turn my head and laugh When my world turns sour You give me strength to pass Through my darkest hour Oh take me home When the streetlights shine above
Here in the dark, the shadows, they haunt me, Here in the shade, oh the bright lights, they blind me
Yesterday is gone, time for moving on, Here's a brand new start, gonna base it on my heart, It's another day, I've got to find a better way, Won't you help me?
Failing that, If you have to go, It's all up to me, I know
I just wanna change my world, But from the inside, I just wanna live my life, And make this place, make this time, For all our lives to be, Respected
Here in the cold, light of day, this vision, Paints a different world, a world of the heart, And I'd like to live there
I've been on the run, from all the people I've become, I want to shed this skin, and start it all again, I want to draw a line, in the sand for one last time, Will you help me?
Failing that, If you have to go, It's all up to me I know
I just wanna change my world, But from the inside, I just wanna live my life, With some hope, and to do what's right, I just wanna change this world, And make this place, make this time, For all our lives to be, Respected
I've known you since you were a girl When things just didn't work out for you I said don't crack up and see both sides But you kept on blaming the world for everything I tried to tell you that you were in control But you didn't seem to listen to a word I say But I'm never giving up giving up on you (I try to ) Help you see the world in a different way
Hey Yeah ? just look at you now Riding on a silver wave That keeps on going Through the sun and through the rain Through the good and the bad times Through the joy and through the pain Hey look at you now See what you've become
Now look me in the eye, now and tell me straight Did you find it hard to tell me everything I said things can only get better dear But they won't if you don't lift a finger to help me What's the point in taking this human form If we can't understand the point of living here Who would ever want to live alone Without sharing this world with everyone and everything
Just look at you now Riding on a silver wave That keeps on going Through the sun and through the rain Through the good and the bad times Through the joy and through the pain Hey look at you now See what you've become
It's a frighten time For people round the world Feel uneasy now about the future Time to end the war against humanity Time to build the peace In our new century
We're talking 'bout a revolution, an evolution of the heart
The listening heart Opens up but won't surrender Just as you are To what you could be Opening Mind Reaching out for something better Changing my life A revolution of the heart
There's a beating heart that beats in everyone Fills the universe without exception From a speck of dust to far off galaxies Right back down to Earth The heart of you and me
We're talking 'bout a revolution, an evolution of the heart
The listening heart Opens up but won't surrender Just as you are To what you can be
Opening Mind Reaching out for something better Changing my life A revolution of the heart
We're talking 'bout a revolution, an evolution of the heart
The listening heart Opens up but won't surrender Just as you are To what you can be
Opening Mind Reaching out for something better Changing my life A revolution of the heart
Put that finger back to my lips, Will I taste of sugar or of cold wet stone Hope the shell will break on a paper dinner plate Ooh not a headstone
How long does it take to change the man How much sun to melt a frozen life How long will it take for the mask to slip And find a way to mend this broken heart
I've said too much, I've opened up I've spilled my guts, I can't go back, no I won't go back, no I shouldn't ever go back to you.
Push your finger into my ribs Am I made of honey am I made of bone Scrape your nails over my skin To find how many layers I'm wrapped in
How long does it take to change the man How much sun to melt a frozen life How long will it take for the mask to slip And find a way to mend this broken heart
I've said too much, I've opened up I've spilled my guts, I can't go back, no I won't go back, no I shouldn't ever go back to you.
shouldn't ever go back to you shouldn't ever go back shouldn't ever go back to you
Here's the person, you used to know A strange new alchemy, produces the gold A local warming of a frozen ghost A homeless entity returned to the host.
How long does it take to change the man How much sun to melt a frozen life How long will it take for the mask to slip And find a way to mend this broken heart
I've said too much, I've opened up I've spilled my guts, No I can't go back, no I won't go back, no I shouldn't ever go back to you
I've said too much, I've opened up I've spilled my guts, I can't go back, no I won't go back, no I shouldn't ever go back to you
shouldn't ever go back to you shouldn't ever go back shouldn't ever go back
This time, it's different Be sure, I mean it Can't go on trading on ideas that I just don't own A life with some meaning, a life with some sense I want, to blame you Give you, my power I keep it all on the inside, keep it locked in the dark I keep it all on the inside, keep it locked in the dark People telling me it's not my responsibility But it is my problem and it's my life, my life I must believe the solutions, to the problems, are in my hands
Feel the presence of other Love the resistance it presents Different from and outside of me Pushing me to find what is self
Slow down, just talk Sit down, right here Must be an answer to the question of birth and death A world with some meaning A world with some peace Inside, it's turbulent, outside, reflects it Hear you knockin' on the inside Hear me breathe answer please Hear you knockin' on the inside Hear you breathe answer me People telling me what they think that I should be Only thing that I can be is myself, myself I must believe in my choices to create value out of everything
Feel the presence of other Love the resistance it presents Different from and outside of me Pushing me to find what is self Feel the presence of other Love the resistance it offers Different from and outside of me Pushing me to find what is self
This time, it's different I'm sure I mean it Slow down, just listen It's my life, it's my life
