Bread
Sleeping at night in a plaster board box
Scratching the earth with the nails on my fingers
And the ground pukes up rocks and rocks and more rocks
And when the seeds finally reach the ground
Its all been for nothing
I hear the cries of children at night
I watch their faces grow sallow with hunger
Who draws the line between whats wrong and right
And when I ask my life is for
Its all been for nothing
Save your regrets for the dead, but for the living
Give them love and give them bread
One more hungry mouth to be fed
Remember the living
Give them love, give them bread
Standing in the light of the kitchen screen door
Like some kind of untouchable stuck in calcutta
I almost forget what Im standing here for
And I dont know what to do but I know
I wont leave with nothing
Where are the days when life was carefree
Why must I suffer this, what was my crime
Begging or thievery, which shall it be
Is there no other choice for me
I cant live with nothing
Justice only comes to the dead
And when they ask me what life is for
I must give them something

Kingdom Come
Well I walked in the pouring rain
And I heard a voice that cries its all in vain
The voice of doom was shining in my room
I just need one day somewhere far away
Lord I just need one day
Well Ill be breaking these rocks
And cutting this hay
Yes Ill be breaking these rocks
Whats my price to pay
Well the rivers so muddy, but it may come clear
And I know too well whats keeping me here
Im just the slave of a burning ray
Oh give me the night, I cant take another sight
Please, please give me the night
Well Ill be breaking these rocks
And cutting this hay
Yes Ill be breaking these rocks
Whats my price to pay
Sun keeps beating down on me, walls a mile high
Up in the tower theyre watching me hoping Im gonna die
I wont be breaking no rocks
I said I wont be breaking no rocks
(I wont be breaking no rocks) oh-oh-oh
(I wont be breaking no rocks) oh-oh-oh
(I wont be breaking no rocks)

Love Comes To Me
(graham russell)
As long as I live all that I receive is what I want to give to you
I know that if I can stay for a while you will soon love me too
Lets take a chance at least well learn a lesson
It beats hanging round waiting for moments that wait into days
I dont want to love you in two different ways
Do you want to give, do you want to give me you whole day and more
Do you want to give, do you want always the key to the door
Its easy for you talking your way out of all situations
When you cant see thru and leave it up to me
And thats what I do
And thats what I do
Love comes to me and leaves me with you
Love runs thru me in all that you do
Dont walk away, dont leave me standing here
Thats not the way, dont lead me anywhere
I need you now, I need you now
Dont leave me standing here
Oh, I dont know, I just dont know
Its much too fast for me cant we go slow
Oh, I dont know, I just dont know
What do you want me to do

At This Point In My Life
Done so many things wrong I dont know if I can do right
Oh i, oh ive
Done so many things wrong I dont know if I can do right
At this point in my life
Ive done so many things wrong I dont know if I can do right
If you put your trust in me I hope I wont let you down
If you give me a chance Ill try
You see its been a hard road the road Im traveling on
And if I take your hand I might lead you down the path to ruin
Ive had a hard life Im just saying it so youll understand
That right now, right now, Im doing the best I can
At this point in my life
At this point in my life
Although Ive mostly walked in the shadows
Im still searching for the light
Wont you put your faith in me
We both know thats what matters
If you give me a chance Ill try
You see Ive been climbing stairs but mostly stumbling down
Ive been reaching high always losing ground
You see Ive been reaching high but always losing ground
You see Ive conquered hills but I still have mountains to climb
And right now right now Im doing the best I can
At this point in my life
Before we take a step
Before we walk down that path
Before I make any promises
Before you have regrets
Before we talk commitment
Let me tell you of my past
All Ive seen and all Ive done
The things Id like to forget
At this point in my life
At this point in my life
Id like to live as if only love mattered
As if redemption was in sight
As if the search to live honestly
Is all that anyone needs
No matter if you find it
You see when Ive touched the sky
The earths gravity has pulled me down
But now Ive reconciled that in this world
Birds and angels get the wings to fly
If you can believe in this heart of mine
If you can give it a try
Then Ill reach inside and find and give you
All the sweetness that I have
At this point in my life
At this point in my life

Life's Too Short
I let you escape, slip through my fingers
We made our mistakes, but memories linger
Each time I turn a corner I swear I see your face
But I'm standing here alone in the wonder
What I really needed, what made me run away?
Was it just somebody's spell I was under
(Chorus)
We all love on borrowed time, tomorrow's flying blind
And life's too short to be living without you
You laughed at my jokes, broke down my defenses
It's like my heart just awoke, and brought back my senses
I've got my motor running, it's all that I can do
Cause every road I'm taking, is leading back to you
Repeat Chorus
We all love on borrowed time, tomorrow's flying blind
And life's too short to be living without you
And life's too short
And life's too short
I give in I can't go it alone, yeah I'm done now I know that you're gone
I need someone to save me and life's too short, too short
I give in I can't go it alone
Life's too short to be living without you
Life's too short
I give in I can't go it alone
Life's too short can't be living without you
Life's too short
I give in I can't go it alone
I can live without you
Life's too short
I give in I can't go it alone
Life's too short to be living without you

Whats Wrong With That
I may be rotten to the core
And stop me if you think I am
A kid in a candy store
The same as any dirty old man
I know Im not the first to see
I guarantee Im not the last
So take some good advice from me
Just try it once before you ask
I hear an enticing voice
(live it up, live it up, do it now, boy)
I dont like the other choice
(live it up, live it up)
Chorus:
Whats wrong with that
Whats wrong with the fountain of youth
Whats wrong with that
Whats wrong with a little self delusion
Who you think is foolin who
And who will be the last to laugh
Heres another lame excuse
Youre old enough to be her dad
Ive heard all the reasons why
(give it up, give it up, take a powder)
I turn them my blindest eye
(give it up, give it up)
Repeat chorus
Whats wrong with that
Whats wrong with a flower in bloom
Whats wrong with that
Whats wrong with a little self delusion
Days dont hide secrets of the heart
Only you and I do
Little white lies rip you right apart
And any way they want to
Life goes by, done before you start
I cant wait around to satisfy you

A Horse With No Name
On the first part of the journey
I was looking at all the life
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There was sand and hills and rings
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
And the sky with no clouds
The heat was hot and the ground was dry
But the air was full of sound
Ive been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
cause there aint no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...
After two days in the desert sun
My skin began to turn red
After three days in the desert fun
I was looking at a river bed
And the story it told of a river that flowed
Made me sad to think it was dead
You see Ive been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
cause there aint no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...
After nine days I let the horse run free
cause the desert had turned to sea
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There was sand and hills and rings
The ocean is a desert with its life underground
And a perfect disguise above
Under the cities lies a heart made of ground
But the humans will give no love
You see Ive been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
cause there aint no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...

Give Up

Give up, give up
Give up youre love to me
Give up, give up
Give up youre love to me
You better listen well
When I tell you
To be on the look out
You cant call for help
cause I know you inside out
Despite all your hideouts
Im no great pretender
Ill make you surrender
So come along quietly
Heres a thought to remember
I have not met a man yet
To escape from my drag-net
Give up, give up
Give up youre love to me
Give up, give up
Give up youre love to me
Give up, give up
Give up youre love to me
Ill give you just the facts man
And you can draw all your own conclusions
Ill keep your mind surrounded
With chains of love so strong
You cant break through them
My arsenal is stocked
With all kinds of seductive weapons
Although your hearts locked up
My love will assist me
So that you cant resist me
Give up, give up
Give up youre love to me
Give up, give up
Give up youre love to me
Give up, give up
Give up youre love to me
Give up, give up
Give up youre love to me
Give up, give up

No One Can Love You More
Give you love 2x
I'm gonna give you all my love, all my love (give you all my love)
Give you love 2x
I'm gonna give you all my love, all my love
I used to be on my own
Every night, every day by myself
Feeling so far from home
How would I know I would go
Down the road that would lead me right into your arms
Destiny told me that you were the one
Stars fill the sky now I've finally found you
Chorus:
No one can love you more
No one can give it all
I'm gonna give you all my loving
No one can love you more
I'll give you my heart and soul
Feel it deep down inside
Give you love 2x
I'm gonna give you all my love, all my love (give you all my love)
Give you love 2x
I'm gonna give you all my love, all my love
I thought I was wasting time
Living in hope that I'd find a new love
Love can be so unkind
How could it be you and me took so long
To discover that dreams do come true
Everything's changed since the day I met you
The sun's gonna shine every time we're together
(Chorus 2x)
Yesterday has gone
And from this moment on you will see
This will be a forever lasting love
Give you love 2x
I'm gonna give you all my love, all my love
Give you love 2x
I'm gonna give you all my love, all my love
(Chorus 2x)
Give you love 2x
I'm gonna give you all my love, all my love
Give you love 2x
I'm gonna give you all my love, all my love
No one can love you more 3x

Kiss Of Life
Never more aware of what you do
I got you leavin' me and missing you
And me believing that you've never done right
When you've never done wrong
You been comin' to me late at night
It's not the eye alone that gives you sight
I've never given anybody my soul
But I'm coming undone
I'm a survivor but I'm reaching my low
But I'm not ready to die
I'm here for the kiss of life
I'm here for the kiss of life
Just give me the kiss of life
Watch them hold you
Count their faces
A never-ending line
But they're only imitations
Existing out of time
So now you're telling me it's just a ring
You say it's nothing but it's everything
I'm under pressure and I'm under
Your gun and I'm fingers and thumbs
You got the questions and the answers
I know
I'm being buried alive
I'm here for the kiss of life
I'm here for the kiss of life
Just give me the kiss of life
I can't stay here
Lost without you
Strangers in the dark
Holyangel
Living for you
To love and never cry
I'm a survivor but I'm reaching my low
But I'm not ready to die
I'm here for the kiss of life
I'm here for the kiss of life
Just give me the kiss of life

For The Love Of Him
When he opens the door and says I'm home
Be aware of the look in his eyes
They tell you the mood he's in
What kind of day its been
They'll be times where he wont say a word
And you'll wonder if its something you've said
A gentle touch of your hand
Will tell him you understand
For the love of him
Make him your reason for living
Give all the love you can give him
All the love you can
For the love of him
Make him your reason for living
Give all the love you can give him
All the love you can
He's a man and a man has to try
Let them run let them fall let them cry
His world wont fall apart
If you take him into your heart
For the love of him
Make him your reason for living
Give all the love you can give him
All the love you can
For the love of him
Make him your reason for living
Give all the love you can give him
All the love you can
He's a man and a man has to try
Let them run let them fall let them cry
His world wont fall apart
If you take him into your heart
For the love of him
Make him your reason for living
Give all the love you can give him
All the love you can
For the love of him
Make him your reason for living

High Hopes
Monday morning runs to sunday night
Screaming slow me down before the new year dies
It wont take much to kill a lovin smile
And every mother with a baby cryin in her arms singin
Give me help, give me strength
Give a soul a night of fearless sleep
Give me love, give me peace
Dont you know these days you pay for everything
Got high hopes
Comin from the cities, comin from the wild
I see a breathless army breakin like a cloud
Its gonna smother love its gonna shoot your hopes
Before the meek inherit theyll learn to hate themselves
Singin
Give me help, give me strength
Give a soul a night of fearless sleep
Give me love, give me peace
Dont you know these days you pay for everything
Got high hopes
So tell me someone whats the price
I wanna buy some time and maybe live my life
I wanna have a wife I wanna have some kids
I want to look in their eyes and know theyre gonna stand a chance
Singin
Give me help, give me strength
Give a soul a night of fearless sleep
Give me love, give me peace
Dont you know these days you pay for everything
Got high hopes

The Least You Can Do
I was lying awake last night, waiting for your call
But if the rumours are true, that wont bother you at all
Im trying hard to understand
What it takes to be your man
Now I dont have to wonder anymore
Least you can do is say youre sorry
Least you can do is give me back my heart
Just give me back my heart
Seems living in hope was wrong those years I was away
Thinking your letters, I never received, had gone astray
You said youd always be there for me
Like a fool I thought youd be
Now I dont know what I was thinking at all
But the least you can do is say youre sorry girl
Least you can do is give me back my heart
I wont come around no more
You wont find me standing outside your door
Least you can do is tell me why, tell me why
The least you can do is say youre sorry girl
Least you can do is give me back my heart
I wont come around no more
You wont find me standing outside your door
But the least you can do is tell me why
I wont be your fool anymore
Theres no need to be cruel anymore no, no
Least you can do is say youre sorry girl
The least you can do is give me back my heart .just give me back my heart

Here Am I
I sit in my sunny chair
With my head held low
I know the reason Im dreaming
Its really been fun
But where is there left to go
Save to give my life a new meaning
And if by chance
Youd come my way
Ill have to say
Here am i, give me love
Here am i, give me love
How was I to know
Your heart was unsatisfied
When you never troubled to tell me
No wish that you made to me
Ever was denied
I played it just the way
That it should be
But then you turned
And walked away
I have to say
Here am i, give me love
Here am i, give me love
Here am i, give me love
I imagine I must sit here
Till the winter comes
And just watch the days
Growing shorter
To gather in dust wont go
Till my thinkings done
And I walk from this troubled water
By then my need wont be so bad
And Ill gladly say
Here am i, give me love
Here am i, give me love ...

Till The End Of Time
(giorgio moroder/ tom whitlock)
Producer for bonnie: giorgio moroder
I remember times like this
Memories you can't dismiss of paradise
Looking for a way to start our love again
Every night and every day
We can find a better way to live all our lives
We can be as one again
Finally find a way to say that we know the truth
'til the end of time we love
Reaching for the higher ground
'til the end of time we live
Giving all we have to give
Children of another time
We lay it all upon the line
To say i love you
Every night and every day
We can find a better way to say
I love you
'til the end of time we love
Reaching for the higher ground
'til the end of time we live
Giving all we got to give
Giving all we got to give
Giving all we got to give
'til the end of time we love
Every night and every day
Reaching for the higher ground
Reaching for the higher ground
'til the end of time we live
Giving all we got to give
