Ohhhh

I'm sorry the way that I am,
I'm turnin' away from the past,
I'm lookin' for a better place,
I'm lonely but finding my way... around...

So wrong, it's just history repeating;
it keeps following me around.
So wrong, I'm sick of history repeating;
Because it keeps turning me around.

It's starting to push at my mind.
Forget all the things that I took with me.
I'm throwing away all my dreams...
Dreams, dreams, dreams...

So wrong, it's just history repeating;
it keeps following me around.
So wrong, it's just history repeating;
History repeating.
So long.

ah
Oh well, the music is coming to an end
I fell for you and the love pretend
You know, I smelled the truth
But denied my instinct
I left the city, my family, my precinct

And now I'm looking
At liberty, good belief,
Revolution, new obsession,
Ideas, like new years
And good things
I've grown wings
With hope and dope and charity

I ain't being disarmed like this
I don't seek your foolish kiss
This is feeling victory
And I won't tell you what I see
No more, no more

Don't think it- i'll feel this time
You've got to trust in someone
Drop your guard and make love
Don't play your cards to your heart now
Don't play your cards to your heart now

Stop, yell, make a noise!-that's for all of us
Don't think revenge is a path to happiness
For the real link to enlightenment is forgiveness
For under the sun we are better and warmer together

I ain't being disarmed like this
I don't seek your foolish kiss
This is feeling victory
And I won't tell you what I see
No more, no more

Hey!
Don't think it- I'll feel this time
You've got to trust in someone
Drop your guard and make love
Don't play your cards to your heart now
Don't play your cards to your heart now

Let the sun ray in
Let the oceans wave
Let the trees rise up
Let all my love come play
Drive away

I'll be a bystander
That innocent man (That enters the mind?)
Out of a nightmare
Back into my heart

All of the reds,
Drop your guard and make love, love

Revolution, new obsession
Ideas, new years
Good things
I've grown wings
Hope, dope, charity

Don't play your cards to your heart now

No chance for me to start again
Break my heart(hold?) again
No more reason why I'm here
There's a flood in my room I'm distraught(destroyed?)

There's extra news and that's for sure
Bring back my chance to survive
Fall of man are bullshit and lies
Hope shatters my whole damn life

Even though I'm not alone tonight (Tonight - Tonight - Tonight)
My saviour breaks through
Clouds drain down on you (I'm left? I'm left? I'm left?)
With you girl come on give in to what I've done (I'm left? I'm left? I'm left?)

Turn the lights out on my life
Can't you see I'm losing my mind?
You walk away again out of my sight
Cause I'll never have you as my wife

I'll just fall silent (I'm left? I'm left? I'm left?)
My saviour breaks through
Clouds drain down on you (I'm left? I'm left? I'm left?)
With you girl come on give in to what I've done (I'm left? I'm left? I'm left?)

Ohhhh

I'm sorry the way that I am,
I'm turnin' away from the past,
I'm lookin' for a better place,
I'm lonely but finding my way... around...

So wrong, it's just history repeating;
it keeps following me around.
So wrong, I'm sick of history repeating;
Because it keeps turning me around.

It's starting to push at my mind.
Forget all the things that I took with me.
I'm throwing away all my dreams...
Dreams, dreams, dreams...

So wrong, it's just history repeating;
it keeps following me around.
So wrong, it's just history repeating;
History repeating.
So long.

I, I long to be beside of you
I was wrong to tell you what was true
'Cause I know I'm a victim of my pride
I belong to all that I've been through

I drove for miles in a city in trance
I came to ask for a second chance
But I won't dance, no I won't dance
I came for miles on a broken wheel
I came to see whether love can heal
But I won't kneel, no I won't kneel
'Cause I can't bend, can't hold, can't lend, can't fold
Can't lose, won't cry, can't choose, 'cause I know why I…

I, I want to always be with you
I was wrong, to tell you what I knew
'Cause I know, I'm a slave to lonely pride
I belong to all that I've been through

I drove for miles in a city in trance
I came to ask for a second chance
But I won't dance, no I won't dance
I came for miles on a broken wheel
I came to see whether love can heal
But I won't kneel, no I won't kneel
'Cause I can't bend, can't hold, can't lend, can't fold
I get close, and get scared, i'm this close in my head

Won't you give me something, something to hold
Won't you give me something, something to hold
Something to…

Thought I told you
to memorize all the traces
This only comes once in a life
I could never be so true
And be here with you
I'm gon' give it a try

Just for tonight
Feels good
Just for tonight

Wanna help you
To leave behind all the faces
It's just you and me tonight
We could only be the fruit
I'll stay here with you
I'm gon' give it a try

Just for tonight
Just for tonight
Feels good, hey yeah
Just for tonight

You say you don't need them
But when you don't need them
You send them off
Yeah you send them off

Do what you think you should do
Leave them like you said you would do
But you never stop
It's how you are

Better fight
You better fight yeah
You better fight
If you if you stand up

Look me in the eye sister
We're just mocked by doofus
I am a stranger
Giving it up against the wall
Up against the wall
Up against the wall

You don't own me
Oh you don't let it be
Just 'cause you're lost
Don't cut off your arm

Before it comes now
Before it comes down
Before it comes down
Are you ready for

Look me in the eye sister
We're just mocked by doofus
I am a stranger
Giving it up against the wall

Up against the wall
Up against the wall
Up against the wall
Up against the

Before it comes down
Before it comes down
Before it comes down
Are you ready for
Ready for

Don't you blame it on me
Don't you blame it on me

Look me in the eye sister
We're just mocked by dufus
I am a stranger
Giving it up against the wall

Up against the wall
Up against the wall
Up against the wall
Up against the

I think you know about it
Think you know about it
Think you know about it
Think you know about it
Think you know
Think you know oh oh

Look me in the eye sister
Look me in the eye sister
Think you know about it
Think you know about it

Up against the wall
Up against the

Up against the wall
Up against the

taste it in the air so sweet
because they come alive
visions of the city street
all of electrify
I feel your heat heat heat
I never wanna let you go
let you go let you go let you go
I rock too this beat beat beat
I'm standing here to let you know
let you know let you know
yeah you can write me a love letter
but there's nothing to say
don't wanna take a
chance on your paper romance anyway
yea you can rub it off much better
if you come away
don't wanna take a
chance on your paper romance anyway

chance on your paper romance anyway

I can read your lips
I can read your mind,
It's all I want to hear,
Why am I so blind?

And the way we were
Fatefully entwined
In a shameless world,
Rock 'n roll desire

All the things you are
In a single word
Famously inspired
Privately absurd

And the way we were
Fatefully entwined
In a shameless world,
Rock 'n roll desire

And the days go by
Morning noon and night,
Permanently wired
To the simple life,

And the way we were
Fatefully entwined
In a shameless world,
Rock 'n roll desire

Rock 'n roll desire

I got an inkling
That I've got an avalanche
Falling down on me
Crushing my everything

Whenever I'm down
I call on you my friend
A helping hand you lend
In my time of need
Whenever I'm down
I call on you my friend,
I call on you my friend

Listen, Listen, Listen

(Chorus)
Whenever I'm down
I call on you my friend
A helping hand you lend
In my time of need
Whenever I'm down
I call on you my friend,
I call on you my friend

Whenever I'm down
And all that's going on
Is really going on
Just one of those days (and ju-h..)
You say the right things
To keep me moving on
To keep me going strong

Whenever I'm down

ain't nobody

Whenever I'm down
I call on you my friend
A helping hand you lend
In my time of need
Whenever I'm down
I call on you my friend,
I call on you my friend

Whenever I'm down
And all that's going on
Is really going on
Just one of those days (and ju-h..)
You say the right things
To keep me moving on
To keep me going strong

Repeat Chorus

If you're fond of sand dunes and salty air,
quaint little villages here and there.
(repeated several times)
