Tommy Stinson [Bass]

When I look into your eyes
I can see a love restrained
But darling, when I hold you
Don't you know I feel the same

Nothing lasts forever
And we both know hearts can change
And it's hard to hold a candle
In the cold November rain

We've been through this such a long, long time
Just trying to kill the pain, ooh yeah
But lovers always come and lovers always go
And no one's really sure who's letting go today, walking away
If we could take the time to lay it on the line
I could rest my head just knowing that you were mine, all mine

So if you want to love me
Then darling, don't refrain
Or I'll just end up walking
In the cold November rain

Do you need some time on your own?
Do you need some time all alone?
Ooh, everybody needs some time on their own
Ooh, don't you know you need some time all alone?

I know it's hard to keep an open heart
When even friends seem out to harm you
But if you could heal a broken heart
Wouldn't time be out to charm you?
Oh!

Sometimes I need some time on my own
Sometimes I need some time all alone
Everybody needs some time on their own
Don't you know you need some time all alone?

And when your fears subside
And shadows still remain
I know that you can love me
When there's no one left to blame

So never mind the darkness
We still can find a way
Nothing lasts forever
Even cold November rain

Don't you think that you need somebody?
Don't you think that you need someone?
Everybody needs somebody
You're not the only one
You're not the only one

Don't you think that you need somebody?
Don't you think that you need someone?
Everybody needs somebody
You're not the only one
You're not the only one

Don't you think that you need somebody?
Don't you think that you need someone?
Everybody needs somebody
You're not the only one
You're not the only one

Don't you think that you need somebody?
Don't you think that you need someone?
Everybody needs somebody

One, two
One, two, three, four

Shed a tear 'cause I'm missin' you, I'm still alright to smile
Girl, I think about you everyday now
Was a time when I wasn't sure but you, set my mind at ease
There is no doubt you're in my heart now

Said woman, take it slow, it'll work itself out fine
All we need is, just a little patience
Said sugar, make it slow, and we'll come together fine
All we need is just a little patience

(Patience) Mmm, yeah

I sit here on the stairs, 'cause I'd, rather be alone
If I can't have you right now, I'll wait dear
Sometimes, I get so tense, but I can't speed up the time
But you know love, there's one more thing to consider

Said woman, take it slow, and things will be just fine
You and I'll just, use a little patience
Said sugar, take the time, 'cause the lights are shining bright
You and I've got, what it takes to make it

We won't fake it
Oh, I'll never break it
'Cause I can't take it

A little patience, mm yeah, ooh yeah
Need a little patience, yeah
Just a little patience, yeah
Some more patience, yeah

I've been walkin' these streets (Yeah) at night
Just tryin' to get it right (Could use some patience)
It's hard to see, with so many around (Yeah)
You know I don't like, being stuck in the crowd (Could use some patience)
And the streets don't change, but (Yeah) baby the name
I ain't got time for the game (Everybody have some patience)
'Cause I need you
Yeah-e-yeah, (Yeah) well I need you
Ooh, (All it takes is patience) I need you
Whoa, (Just a little patience) I need you
Ooh, (Is all you need) this time

She′s got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything
Was as fresh as the bright blue sky
Now and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that special place
And if I′d stare too long
I′d probably break down and cry

woah oh oh
Sweet child o′ mine
woah oh oh oh
Sweet love of mine


She′s got eyes of the bluest skies
As if they thought of rain
I hate to look into those eyes
And see an ounce of pain
Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place
Where as a child I′d hide
And pray for the thunder
And the rain
To quietly pass me by

woah oh oh
Sweet child o′ mine
woah oh oh oh
Sweet love of mine

woah oh oh
Sweet child o′ mine
woah oh oh oh
Sweet love of mine

woah oh oh oh
Sweet child o′ mine
woah oh oh oh
Sweet love of mine

woah oh oh oh
Sweet child o′ mine
woah oh oh oh
Sweet love of mine

Where do we go
Where do we go now
Where do we go
Where do we go
Where do we go
Where do we go
Where do we go now
Where do we go
Sweet child o′ mine
Where do we go now
ah ah aiai ai ai
Where do we go now
Where do we go

Where do we go
Where do we go now
where do we
where do we go now
sweet child
sweet child of mine

When you were young
and your heart was an open book
You used to say live and let live
you know you did
you know you did
you know you did
But if this ever changin
in which we live in
Makes you give in and cry
Say live and let die
Live and let die

What does it matter to ya
When ya got a job to do
Ya got to do it well
You got to give the other fella hell

You used to say live and let live
you know you did
you know you did
you know you did
But if this ever changin
in which we live in
Makes you give in and cry
Say live and let die
Live and let die

When you were young
and your heart was an open book
You used to say live and let live
you know you did
you know you did
you know you did
But if this ever changin
in which we live in
Makes you give in and cry
Say live and let die
Live and let die

What does it matter to ya
When ya got a job to do
Ya got to do it well
You got to give the other fella hell

You used to say live and let live
you know you did
you know you did
you know you did
But if this ever changin
in which we live in
Makes you give in and cry
Say live and let die
Live and let die

Took my chances carelessly
Choked on my own cigarette
You can hand me another bottle of whiskey baby
But you aint seen the worst yet


Now I'm reckless, gonna have some fun
And the woman who is dead
Who was out alnight, no I'm not the only one


And I ain't standing, never standing
In the shadow of your love
Shadow of your love
Shadow of your love
Shadow of your love


Wrote my changes helplessly
Yeah but I got no regrets
Money it was on the table
So I booked with all the bets


Living like a lemon aint so hot
And you aint my idea
Of one high-rollin' shot


No I ain't standing, never standing

Chorus

Big dark clouds hanging over your head
Hope you've heard, baby all I've said
You've been told, what I've said
No use crying, you're as good as dead


Now I'm reckless, gonna have some fun
And the woman who is dead, who is out alright
Now I'm not the only one,br>

And I ain't standing, never standing

when you're talkin to yourself
and nobody's home

you can fool yourself
you came in this world alone
alone

so nobody ever told you baby
how it was gonna be

what happen to you baby
guess have to wait and see

but I'm only 28and
I'm much too young
to let love break my heart
young at heart
but it's getting much too late
to find ourse so far apart
I don't know how you're sposed to
find me latel yan
I what more could you ask from me
how could you say
that I never needed you
when you took everything
said you took everything
from me

young at heart
an it gets so hard to wait
when no one I know can seem
to help me now
old at heart
but I mustn't hesitaateif
I'm to find my
own way out still
talkun to myself
and nobody's home alone

so nobody ever told us baby
how it was gonna be

So what happen to us baby
guess we'll have to wait and see

when I find all of the reasons
may be I'll find another way
find another day
with all the changing seasons
of my life
may be I'll get it right
mext time
an now that you've been broken down
got your head out
of the ground
got the under ground
you don't talk so loud
you don't walk so proud
any more
and what for

well I jumped into the river
too many times to make it home
I'm out here on my own
an drifting all alone
it doesn't show
give it time
to read between the lines
I see the storm getting closer
and the waves they get so high
seems everything
we've ever known's here
why must it drift away and die

I'll never find anyone to
replace you
guess I'll have to make it thruth
this time
oh this time
without you
I knew the storm
getting closer
and all my friends said
I was high
but everything
we've ever known's here
I never wanted it to die
