What can I say, what can I do? All of my life I've been a victim of you What can I say or do? Lost inside your love
What can it be, who can I see? All of your life you've been the winner in me What can I say or do? Lost inside your love
Is it any wonder there's no reason why? Is it all because I left it open wide for your pride To leave me one more time Are you leaving me one more time?
(guitar solo (Joey Molland))
What can I say, what can I do? All of my life I've been a winner with you What can I say or do? Lost inside your love Lost inside your love Lost inside your love.
LOST INSIDE YOUR LOVE (solo demo version) (Tom Evans) What can I say, what can I do? All of my life I've been a victim of you What can I say or do? I'm lost inside your love
What can it be, who can I see? All of my life you've been the loser in me What can I say or do? I'm lost inside your love
Is it any wonder there's no reason why? Is it all because I left it open wide for your pride To lose me once again Am I losing you once again?
What can I say, what can I do? All of my life I've been a loser with you What can I say or do? I'm lost inside your love Lost inside your love Lost inside your love.
There are times when it feels so hard just to carry on There are times when the days all seem to be so long Then this feeling inside of me sets me free from the past
And I know that when I'm ready, love is gonna come at last Yes, I know that when I'm ready, love is gonna come at last
Been alone in a crowded room, watched it all go on I've had so many sleepless nights when I dreamed alone Then a break in the clouds above feels like love shinin' down
And I know that when I'm ready, love is gonna come around Yes, I know that when I'm ready, love is gonna come around
I live for tomorrow, what it may bring I live through the sorrow Live in my dreams, in my dreams
(guitar solo (Joey Molland))
This feeling inside of me sets me free from the past And someday I'll find a way to make my dreams come true
'Cause I know that when I'm ready, love is gonna come at last Yes, I know that when I'm ready, love is gonna come at last Yes, I know that when I'm ready, love is gonna come at last Yes, I know that when I'm ready, love is gonna come at last Yes, I know that when I'm ready, love is gonna come at last.

There was a young man Watched his life unfold each day He only wanted to play He only needed a ray
And then he found out One rainy afternoon, he'd lost All he'd earned and was tossed In the rivers he'd crossed
CHORUS: And there he came across the dreamer Who told him life was but a dream And all that you can see is all that you can be
There was a young love destined to get old someday Didn't happen that way They never learned how to say
We've got a long, long time between us We've got a long, long way to go But I believe if we let it, our love will grow
(guitar solo (Joe Tansin))
CHORUS
We've got a long, long time between us We've got a long, long way to go We've got a long, long time between us We've got a long, long way to go We've got a long, long time between us We've got a long, long, long way to go Long way to go (Long, long time between us) And I believe if we let it, our love will grow Our love will grow Our love will grow.
I heard a lover lie, saw a lady cry her heart out He was on his way, she would have to play the part out And though he told her what she did was right He only loved her when the moon was bright And he was leavin'
She didn't understand, it didn't go the way she planned it She thought the ties were strong Then it all went wrong, she landed She come down hard
(guitar solo (Joe Tansin))
She was noticing just lately She had seen a thing or two Things would get a little shaky And there was nothin' she could do She go, "boo hoo hoo"
She looked around the place and there was no one there to save her, oh no And now her eyes would burn He would not return, she knew it And though he told her what she did was right He only loved her when the moon was bright And he was leavin' She come down hard
Leavin' Leavin' (come down hard) Leavin' (come down hard) Leavin', leavin', leavin', leavin', leavin', leavin', leavin', leavin'...
Many's the time I've been troubled in mind And I've not known where to go Deeper and darker, no way to believe Lying and dying, no way to conceive Making believe it's not true What in the world can you do?
Sail away, give it all to another day Sail away, throw it over your shoulder
You may find in your heart That you've made a new start with a future not so bad Then you can show all the feelings you know With a will to carry on, carry on, carry on
Then you can know all the feelings you show And you'll know just where to go Deeper and darker's no way to believe Lying and dying's no way to conceive Making believe it's not true What in the world can you do?
Sail away, give it all to another day Sail away, throw it over your shoulder You may... Carry on, carry on, carry on, carry on.
