Going My Way
In time gone by, I lost my will
To try and find a clear way through
Now, it's been a while
Since I asked myself what to do
It's been a while since I played the fool
Cos they said "raise your game, leave the shame
in this place where you will remain
unless you save your soul"
Chorus
Now it's going my way
Forget the time that I did then
Now it's going my way
I look and everything's OK
I've got nothing much to say except
The life that I now lead
Is going my way
Going my way
It's been a while since I spent the day
The whole day wrapped up in my dreams
It took a while upstaging misery
It isn't all it seems
Now I smooth my hair, feeling tight
I'm getting into something right
Living beyond those days
Repeat Chorus
I don't understand how it came to
(How it came to)
I don't understand those depths of despair
(Those despairs)
I don't understand how it came to
(How it came to)
I don't understand reaching that despair
(Reaching that despair)
Repeat Chorus x2
Cos I've settles my mind
Settled my mind (to fade)

Out Of My Mind
All you have to do is think about it (x4)
Baby...you drive me crazy all the time
When you play me
I'm burning with the lies that you feed me
Chasing my despair
I can see you smiling till I'm over the edge
Do yourself a favour
Realise you win every game
Cos it's plain to see that I'm a mouse of a man
Chorus
Yeah get me out of my mind
I don't feel so good
Breaking down the walls
While I'm falling apart
Get me out of my mind
I don't feel so good
Try to understand
Lately
You reply with your lies that I'm failing
You leave me high and dry
Over over over
You trip me around
I tell you baby
Do yourself a favour
Realise you win every game
Cos it's plain to see that I'm a mouse of a man
Yeah you made a mouse of a man

Breaking down the walls
I'm falling apart
Get me out of my mind
Try to understand that I'm losing my heart
Try to understand

Bring Out The Magic
(graham russell)
When all else fails and you have nothing
You know you really should believe in something
Take a look at what you have
To a dream thats not all that bad
Dont waste time with all your thinking
Wake up now your dreams are sinking
Making the change is up to you
Youll accept nothing less than the best
(chorus)
Come, come, come on
Bring out the magic
Come, come, come on
Bring out the magic
Its much quicker than the eye
Its your mind and its there all the time
Say good-bye this is tomorrow
Make your mind up not to follow
You can lead yourself away
Understand, you can have what you say
(chorus)
You can lead yourself away
Understand, you can have what you say
You can stay with me now
And tell me what you know
You can stay with me now
And tell me all you know
(chorus)
You can lead yourself away
Understand, you can have what you say

Time Goes On
Intro:
Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick
Repeat x14
Chorus
On and on, time goes on, never stops,
Just goes on
Repeat
Im seem forever, since time began
So full of mysteries we dont understand
Searching for answers and remedies
As problems plague us like an enemy
Bridge
Round and round in circles we go
Will we ever stop, nobody knows
Running with the hands of time
Always reaching, still we seem to find
Time just marches on
Chorus
So many blinded by life today
When will we realize love the only way
Its time to wake up
cause times have changed
Time waits for no one
Its a crucial game
Bridge
Chorus
Take care of business, dont procrastinate
We must decide on what becomes our fate
Nation to nation, love is the key
Lets take the time we need more unity

Im so misunderstood
I am a special girl
Living in my special world
You know you cant change me
Rather you gotta see me for me boy
Im doing the best I can
Try to understand
Chorus:
Accept me for who I am
No woman can take my place baby
Im doing the best I can
So please dont give up on me
Accept me for who I am

You are my soul, unique
My dream thats come to me

You seem to understand

Love Me Or Leave Me Alone
I think you do, then I think you dont
Maybe you will, maybe then you wont
Dont understand baby why you can
Just call it quits if you cant commit
I know what I want, only how I feel
But I dont want your love if it aint real no
I think its time you made up your mind
Baby whats your plan, I need to understand if...
Chorus:
Youre gonna love me or leave me
Dont say that you need me
Not if you really wanna let me go
You dont know hoe much it hurts me
Show me some mercy
Baby just love me or leave me alone
You needed time so I gave you that
To figure out where your heart is at
What do you say, do you go or stay
Is it no or yes, I shouldnt have to guess if..

How Long
Its so hard just waitin
But I guess thats what I have to do
My poor heart keeps on breakin
With every moment Im away from you
I know youre smart takin
Your time
cause of what it cost you
Once before
But its not then and I love
You a lot
Now and forever
Chorus:
How long do I wait before you make up your mind
How long I wonder
How long before you take away the hardest of times
How long I wonder
Its unfair when two who care
Have to face such a perilous sea
Despair lingers everywhere
Like a cloud nobody can reach
I understand youre afraid of it all
Love is one hell of a step
Ill be there if you panic or fall
No matter what the depth

All I can say Ive already said
More than a thousand times

Despair Is Darkness
DESPAIR IS DARKNESS
Despair is darkness-
Despair is death inside and death in the world and death in one’s own sad soul-
Despair is no way out -
Despair is the place where one is forever stuck -
Despair is the realization that one has done what one could – and one is not going anywhere else-
Despair is the admission of failure-
Despair is no sign of help anywhere around-
Despair is so much lost-
Despair is one‘s life is over-
Despair is regret-
Despair is the sense that one will never have the time to have another chance -
Despair is ‘it’s finished’-
Despair is no way out-
Despair is going down and more down and more dark and more afraid all the time -
Despair is the scream which hurts and does not stop the hurting -
Despair is the understanding that even Death will not save one -
Despair is that the pain will never end-not even with death.
Despair is no way out again and again and again- without end.

Shine A Little Love
Although the things youve done I wouldnt criticize.
I guess you had your way.
You see I gotta make you understand.
I know it sounds a foolish thing to say.
But it dont matter baby cos todays another day.
Chorus
You shine a little love on my life
You shine a little love on my life
You shine a little love on my life and let me see.
Remember,tonight were gonna run till dawn
Remember,tonight were gonna say.
Well never stop we got a good thing goin on.
I know youve heard it all before.
But I really need you darlin every day I need you more.
Repeat chorus
Can you understand.(yes I understand) can you feel its right.
(I know it is) will you be the same.(Ill do it all again).
Its been a year now and its getting so much better.
You came home without a word.
Though everybody said youll soon forget her.
Thay couldnt see and they just didnt understand.
And lookin in the mirror there were fools at either hand.
Can you understand.(yes I understand) can you feel its right.
(I know it is) will you be the same.(Ill do it all again).
How many days had I been waiting there to tell you.
I really cant believe.
Were walkin out into the world tonight.
Well do it all again until the break of light.
And the feelin in your heart will soon be shinin in your eyes

Softly Over
Its over, theres nothing more to say
Silent comes the night time, end another summers day
I can just remember, or is this the dream that never goes away.
(chorus)
Understand me, Im calling -
Understand me, can you hear me call.
Night time, surely its a lie,
No-one ever told me, I just let the chance go by
Wishing there was time enough, you tell me theres no time, but I can try.
(chorus repeat)
Speak now, without the summer light
All the words I should have spoken, when you held me tight
Still Ill keep in calling, till the morning ends another lonelynight.

Ill be waiting for you hoping, that someday youll hear me calling
But theres never any answer, just the echo of the call

Estoy Aqui - I Am Here
I'm Here
I know you aren't coming back
everything we got time left it behind
I know you aren't bringing back what we spent together
it wouldn't never repeat again
A thousand years won?t be enough
to erase you and forget
And now I'm here trying to convert
cities from countries
mixing sky with sea
i know I let you run away
I know I lost you
nothing is gonna be the same
A thousand years can be reach so I can forgive
chorus:
I'm here, loving you
drawning myself
between pictures and notebooks
between things and memories
that i can't understand
I'm turning crazy
changing feet for my face
this night for day
and there's nothing i can do
The letters i wrote i never sent them away
you wouldn't want to know about me
I can't understand
how fool i was
is a matter of faith and time
A thousand years with others a thousand years more
Are enough to love

If you still think some of me
you know I'm still waiting for you

Is It Really Love
(don scott hare, rita gannon)
They say that its the same the whole world over
That loves the hardest thing to understand
I thought once in love my troubles would blow over
But it seems thats when the heartache just begins
And I remember when you first said that you love me
I tried not to let the words go to my head
The things you said you spoke so sincerely
Somewhere in between the lines of red
Chorus:
Is it really love
Is it really love
Or just my heart playing tricks on me
I fall so easily
Is my heart telling me
That Im your fool
Or is it really love
This time loves got me feeling so uncertain
My hearts seen all the breaks that it can take
I cant tell you if this is just infatuation
Or another chance to learn from my mistakes
Repeat chorus
Im a little bit leary
Of the love em and leave em behind kind
Im just a little bit weary
Cause other lovers like messing with my mind
Oh all the time

Am I your fool
Or is it really love

But Don't Despair
Despair, if you must –
But how's it going to pull you through?
Despair, when you trust
Naught since then there's naught to do.
Despair, should you thrust
Aside your pride, your self-esteem.
And so despair, if it's dust,
The only substance that you deem.
Despair, when a gust
Of slightly breeze can break your stance.
And do despair, when lust
Is your interpretation of romance.
But don't despair, if you can care
About the plight of any other being.
And you can focus on the help,
Support, and altruistic further actions
For the seeing. Be believing,
As despair will start receding
All around – simply since you found
A way to steer you clear
From this: the very cause of your despair!
So give to others; give them all a helping lift:
Despair, you'll find will disappear –
And that has got to be a well-deserved
And saintly gift!

Reelin In The Years
Your everlasting summer
You can see it fading fast
So you grab a piece of something
That you think is gonna last
You wouldnt know a diamond
If you held it in your hand
The things you think are precious
I cant understand
Chorus:
Are you reelin in the years
Stowin away the time
Are you gatherin up the tears
Have you had enough of mine
You been tellin me youre a genius
Since you were seventeen
In all the time Ive known you
I still dont know what you mean
The weekend at the college
Didnt turn out like you planned
The things that pass for knowledge
I cant understand
Chorus
I spend a lot of money
And I spent a lot of time
The trip we made in hollywood
Is etched upon my mind
After all the things weve done and seen
You find another man
The things you think are useless
I cant understand

Happy Ending
i may be a princess to you
but youre not a prince to me
no use rescuing me from a tower
im not there to be reascued too
my king youll never be
i dont believe in never say never
cant you see what im saying
[pre-chorus]
now is not the time
there is no time for you
oh

theres no time for your happy ending
youre happy ending is long gone and forgotten
its worth nothin'
mines worth somethin'
that love you sent isnt sending
like i said theres no time for your happy ending
some days ill try to break free
of this misery
some days ill try to find
a thought swarming in my mind
to say to you
i dont know what to do
[repeat pre-chorus and chorus]
there must be something going on
this dumb thing is making me run
what is that called again
oh yes a rumor
it must end sooner
ive counted rumors up to ten
[repeat pre-chorus and chorus]
you cant be happy when there is no happiness
you cant be angry when there is no angryness
you cant be sad when there is no sadness
you cant be mad when there is no madness
in the air
please dont look and stare
at me
please

no time i said for your happy ending

Killing The Blues
Leaves were falling ..just like embers
In colors red and gold they set us on fire
Burning just like a moonbeam ..in our eyes

Somebody said they saw me
Swinging the world by the tail
Bouncing over a white cloud.
Killing the blues
I am guilty of something
I hope you never do because there is nothing
Sadder than losing .. yourself in love

Now, you ask me just to leave you
To go out on my own and get what I need to
You want me to find ..what Ive already had

Whats In Your World
Tell me what world youre living in
Im trying so hard to understand
Searching my soul just so find any line

We shared the best baby, the best of everything
Now it seems like were slowly drifting apart
Tell me when did we stop communicating
Heart to heart

Whats in you world
Whatcha trying to hide from me
I cant fight what I cant see
I need so know whats going on
Whats in your world
Im standing here with a broken heart
Trying to stop before l start
Falling all over again
Baby I need to know
Need for you to show
Whats in your world
Girl lm not ready to walk away from you
Unless you say that its over and done, I know
Iii do what I gotta do
Lts time to remind you that loves on the line
So baby say what you gotta say
But if youre gonna walk away (tell me)
Chorus: (repeat)
Now Im sure you understand
That a man must be a man
Ive got so many promises to keep
Maybe lm in too deep
Cant see tho other side
And baby all I want to do is satisfy
How can I give you what you need
When youre not telling me

When they open will you be right here with me
