Nothing Happens In This World Until
Nothing happens in this world
until somebody falls in love
with somebody;
dating, marriages
and babies are born;
children raised
parents blessed;
homes made.
Nothing happens in this world
until somebody falls in love
with somebody.
Nothing happens in this world
until somebody falls in love
with something;
reading, books, work, science
teaching, ideas, culture, the future
the past.
Nothing good happens in this world
when somebody falls out of love badly;
broken dreams, divorces, jealousy
fear, anger, abandoned children,
murder, rape, hate and mayhem.
Nothing good happens in this world
when somebody stops loving
and eats from the dark side.
Nothing good happens in this world
when somebody puts too much love
in some things
cars, houses, money, power, greed
war.
Nothing happens in this life
that does not start from love.

Who Will You Run To
You're not sure what you want to do
with your life
but you sure don't want me in it
Yeah you're sure the life you're
living with me
can't go on one single minute
And there's a new one waiting
outside this door
and now's the time to begin it
You found a new world and
you want to taste it
But that world can turn cold and
you better face it
Who will you run to when it all falls down
Who's gonna pick you world up off the ground
Who's gonna take away the tears you cry
Who's gonna love you baby as good as I
You won't know what it's like to live
on your own
You've always had me there beside you
You think it's easy finding
someone out there
who's gonna care as much as I do
What's gonna happen baby
when you find out
that there's no one there to cry to
You can tell the whole world how you're
gonna make it
You can follow you heart but what ya do
when someone breaks it
Who will you run to when it all falls down
Who's gonna pick you world up off the ground
Who's gonna take away the tears you cry
Who's goona love you baby as good as I
You found a new world and
you want to taste it
But that world can turn cold and
you better face it
Who will you run to when it all falls down
Who's gonna pick you world up off the ground
Who's gonna take away the tears you cry
Who's gonna love you baby as good as I
Who will you run to when it all falls down
Who's gonna pick your world up off the ground
Who's gonna take away the tears you cry
Who's gonna love you baby as good as I

Let Me Go
One more kiss could be the best thing
One more lie could be the worst
And all these thoughts are never resting
And youre not something I deserve
In my head theres only you now
This world falls on me
In this world, theres real and make-believe
This seems real to me
You love me but you dont know who I am
Im torn between this life I lead and where I stand
You love me but you dont know who I am
So let me go
Let me go
I dream ahead to what I hope for
And I turn my back on loving you
How can this love be a good thing?
And I know what Im going through
In my head theres only you now
This world falls on me
In this world, theres real and make-believe
This seems real to me
You love me but you dont know who I am
Im torn between this life I lead and where I stand
You love me but you dont know who I am
So let me go
Just let me go
Let me go
And no matter how hard I try
I cant escape these things inside
I know, I know
When all the pieces fall apart
You will be the only one who knows
Who knows
You love me but you dont know who I am
Im tore in between this life I lead and where I stand
You love me but you dont know who I am
So let me go
Just let me go
You love me but you dont
You love me but you dont
You love me but you dont know who I am
You love me but you dont
You love me but you dont
You love me but you dont know me

All The Love In The World
Watching all the insects march along
Seem to know just right where they belong
Smears a face reflecting in the chrome
Hiding in the crowd, I'm all alone
No one's heard a single word I've said
They don't sound as good outside my head
It looks as though the past is here to stay
I've become a million miles aw-
Why do you get all the love in the world?
Why do you get all the love in the world?
All the jagged edges disappear
Colors all are brighter when you're near
The stars are all afire in the sky
Sometimes I get so lonely, I could
Why do you get all the love in the world?
Why do you get all the love in the world?
Why do you get all the love in the world?
Why do you get all the love in the world?
Why do you get all the love in the world?
Why do you get all the love in the world?
Why do you get all the love in the world?
Why do you get all the love in the world?

My World Your World
Why should I love someone who's horrible to me?
Why should I love someone who will never love me?
Why should I care about someone I can't count on?
Why should I love when I can hate?
If I hate you will you survive?
If I hate you will I die?
If I hate you I hope you crumble
If I hate you I hope you cry
If you hate me why do I care?
Why should I care?
If love didn't exist what would happen?
If love didn't exist would we talk?
If love didn't exist I would have no troubles
If love was made up you'd b alone
If love was made up you would crumble
In my world you love me
In my world I'm happy
In my world I can count on you
In my world I can love
In my world everyone cares
In my world your in my league
In my world I'm good-looking
In my world no one hurts me
In my world no one harms me
In my world bullies don't exist
In my world everything is perfect
In my world everything is picturesque
In my world dreams come true
In my world dreams exist
in your world what happens?
Am I loved in there?
Am I happy in there?
Do I even exist in there?
Do you kill in there?
Do you rule over everyone in there?
Do people smile?
Do people cry?
Do people die?
What happens?

World of Love
Until the night, falls.
And all the criminals...
Are balled and chained!
With a sleep inducing done.
There can not be,
A world of love.
Or a peace.
That's when the air breathed,
Will be fresh and clean.
That's when there will be,
A world of love.
And all mental debris,
Has been swept and gone.
With the sight of flying doves above.
Until a consciousness lifts.
And all experienced tragedies disappear.
And creditors condoned...
No longer disturb with threats to phone.
With a peace of mind declared.
And those who have it know it is owned.
We'll have a world of love,
When all conflicts are fixed and solved.
And forgiveness is done.
We'll have a world of love.
Shared by everyone.
Without weapons to use,
To kill someone with a gun.
Until the night, falls.
And all the criminals...
Are balled and chained.
With no deceivers creeping stealthfully.
And they have been effectively,
Induced into eternal sleep.
You and I,
Can no longer deny...
We then have a world of love.
Without tears to cry,
To satisfy those who oppress.
A world of love comes to everyone.
And that love is all that is known to be addressed.

I've Seen A Love
Edwin McCain
I've Seen A Love
That kind of love it makes me wonder
Why my love causes me so much pain
I see my ring as it spins on the table
A perfect circle on the dusty wood
Tells of a life, the love and the laughter
Cries my tears for the times that were good
Ive seen a love that rolls like thunder
Ive seen a love that falls like rain
That kind of love it makes me wonder
Why my love causes me so much pain
One gets lost, one gets lonely
In another world love remains
That kind of love takes away all your empty
That kind of love takes away all your shame
I've seen a love that rolls like thunder
I've seen a love that falls like rain
That kind of love it makes me wonder
Why my love causes me so much pain
And our kind of love it burns like summer
Like I'm rolling down some old heartache road
And all my running and my demons
Can't seem to lift it
Can't seem to lift that love
I've seen a love that rolls like thunder
I've seen a love that falls like rain
That kind of love it makes me wonder
Why my love causes me pain

Facade
A little girl trapped in her knowledge and craft
Came tripping to my room last night
I cooked her a steak and I tried not to fake
And still make everything alright
She had dreads in her hair and problems and cares
She tried hard not to let em show
She was decent and sweet and I was sizin up the meat
But doubts fell in my mind like snow
And when the shove comes down to love
The facade falls down
And when the bricks fall from the tricks
The facade falls down
Its a sunny afternoon and Im sitting in my robe
Im dirty and Im here alone
Theres a story on my table that talks about me
And I want to stuff it down the authors throat
And Im sleeping with someone new every night
And in the morning politely saying bye
And Im nowhere and no one
And I only wanna run
And I feel like a hamburger bun
And when you must
Believe or bust
The facade falls down
When youre scared of a brand new care
The facade falls down
I got no reason to believe
I got no reason but Im new york scumbag tough
And Ill keep on truckin
So night is falling
And Im getting tired
And its time to get my slippers and books
Got a sweater and glasses
And something that passes
For a way to get by in this world
And Im getting tired
Of so many different things
I guess Im just plain tired
Or maybe too intelligent to believe
In the obvious side of things
And when voice says make a choice
The facade falls down
When your knees start to concede
The facade falls down
When the shove comes down to love
The facade falls down
And when the bricks fall from the tricks
The facade falls down
The facade falls down
The facade falls down
The facade falls down
The facade falls down
The facade falls down

No Good Man
Dan fisher, irene higginbotham, sammy gallop
No good man
Loving on a no good plan never treats me as he should
And that aint good hes always bringing me down
Hes no saint heaven knows tahts what he aint
Spends his money foolishly and not on me
Im the one who gets the run around
I ought to hate him but still I love him so
Cos I require love thats made of fire
And in his arms I find always get that kind
No good man
Ever since the world began teres been other folks like me
Born to be in love with a no good man
I ought to hate him but still I love him so
Cos you see I require love thats made of fire
And in his arms I find always get that kind

Born to be in love with a no good man

Tomorrow Never Dies
Darling Im killed
Im in a puddle on the floor
Waiting for you to return
Oh what a thrill
Fascination gallore
How you tease, how you leave me to burn
Its so deadly my dear
The power of having you near
Until the day
Until the world falls away
Until you say therell be no more goodbyes
I see it in your eyes
Tomorrow never dies
Darling youve won, its no fun
Martinis, girls, and of guns
Its murder on our love affair
But you bet your life every night
While you chase the morning light
Youre not the only spy out there
Its so deadly my dear
The power of wanting you near
Until the day
Until the world falls away
Until you say therell be no more goodbyes
I see it in your eyes
Tomorrow never dies
Until the day
Until the world falls away
Until you say therell be no more goodbyes
I see it in your eyes
Until the day
Until the day

The Reason I Was Born
If the world would ever end
tomorrow in the morn,
I'd hold your hand and know
the reason I was born.
I was born to love you
with every beat of my heart.
And if the world just faded away
it could never tear us apart.
For we would travel far and beyond
from this world we know.
We'd take our love along with us
wherever it is we go..
If the stars in the sky all went out
and darkened in the night
the light of the love I feel for you
would create its own sweet light.
For you, my love, came into my life
and made me feel complete.
So if the world could be no more
it still could not defeat
my purpose for living and loving you.
It doesn't have that power.
For all things end and new things start
and in the world's darkest hour
I'd feel your love and you'd feel mine
and I'd know that on that morn
it could never fade into nothing
for it's the reason I was born.

Can't Buy Me Love
Money can buy me a lot of things,
But I can not put a value on what love brings.
You can buy me all the things in the world,
But the cost is priceless of being your girl.
If I had you in bed with me at night,
Is worth more to me than any first class flight.
Having your arms around me and holding me close,
Is one of the things in the world I treasure most.
Gifts every now and then are okay,
But I would rather spend time with you everyday.
I don’t need the things that comes from tiffany’s,
Just to have you right here with me.
Money can’t buy me love…..
Money can’t buy me love…..
I’m not worried about fancy houses and cars,
Happiness to me is to be where you are.
The 2 of us can be broke together,
If the love is real we can last forever.
I don’t need all of those material things,
I want the peace and happiness true love brings.
You are my angel sent to me from up above,
Money is ok but money can’t buy me love.
All I want is for someone to love me for me,
I don’t care too much for money, because loving you is free…
Money can’t buy me love…..
Money can’t buy me love…..
Put A Little Love In Your Heart
Think of your fellow man
Lend him a helping hand
Put a little love in your heart
You see its getting late
Oh, please dont hesitate
Put a little love in your heart
And the world will be a better place
And the world will be a better place
For you and me
You just wait and see
Another day goes by
And still the children cry
Put a little love in your heart
If you want the world to know
We wont let hatred grow
Put a little love in your heart
And the world will be a better place
And the world will be a better place
For you and me
You just wait and see, wait and see
Take a good look around
And if youre lookin down
Put a little love in your heart
And I hope when you decide
Kindness will be your guide
Put a little love in your heart
And the world will be a better place
And the world will be a better place
For you and me
You just wait and see
Put a little love in your heart
Each and every day
Put a little love in your heart
Theres got to be a better way
Put a little love in your heart
Dont you think its time we start
Put a little love in your heart

When It Falls, It Falls All Over You
Selling papers on the corner,
I saw a man yesterday.
I asked him if hed wanna
Tell me what made him this way.
He said, when its born, its warm,
Then it gathers strength in lies,
When it falls, it falls all over you.
He used to pick his friends.
They left him in the end.
An easy thing to lose,
The right to pick and choose.
When its born, its warm,
Then it gathers strength in lies,
When it falls, it falls all over you.
He said he left his wife,
The back-bone of his life.
Another came along,
But now I guess shes gone.
When its born, its warm,
Then it gathers strength in lies,
When it falls, it falls all over you.
I think I used to see
That old man on tv,
Can you be the same?
It seems like such a shame.
When its born, its warm,
Then it gathers strength in lies,
When it falls, it falls all over you.
The world he thought he knew,
Has better things to do.
As I went on my way
I thought I heard him say:
When its born, its warm,
Then it gathers strength in lies,
When it falls, it falls all over you.

Change The World
By tommy sims, gordon kenney and wayne kirkpatrick
If I can reach the stars,
Pull one down for you,
Shine it on my heart
So you could see the truth:
That this love I have inside
Is everything it seems.
But for now I find
Its only in my dreams.
And I can change the world,
I will be the sunlight in your universe.
You would think my love was really something good,
Baby if I could change the world.
And if I could be king,
Even for a day,
Id take you as my queen;
Id have it no other way.
And our love would rule
This kingdom we had made.
Till then Id be a fool,
Wishing for the day...
That I can change the world,
I would be the sunlight in your universe.
You would think my love was really something good,
Baby if I could change the world.
Baby if I could change the world.
I could change the world,
I would be the sunlight in your universe.
You would think my love was really something good,
Baby if I could change the world.
Baby if I could change the world.
Baby if I could change the world.

Parents Vs Children
Things that i don't understand in this world is that why do some people
get into relationship, getting married, enjoying life and making love.
But when it comes to children or when they already have kids, they
could not accept their responsibilities as parents. They do have
regrets of having kids especially if the kids are naughty, giving problem
or giving them headaches. They always beating, shouting, saying bad words to the kids saying wish you never exist, wish you never been born.
Instead of being calm, giving advice, doing good things which would make their children happy and be proud to have good parents.
Instead of thinking good ideas which would make them close to each other
.
Child is a child, they need more time with their parents. They need
attention, care, and love. Children are curious to everything, they need
to know antyhing as part of growing up. They need the guidance of
parents, but what I see nowadays is different. Parents just give material things to show their love for their kids.
Some parents just go out to parties, shopping, prefer to hang out with their friends rather than their kids. Then they just leave the children
to the nannies/babysitter.
Parents make their children be far from them instead children to get
close to the nannies who always there for them and give the love to the children. Parents must be a role model for the children, but what i see
now is that children do as what their parents do, they become more liberated.
There are also some parents who give up for their children. Some choose their own happiness, they don't like to stay at home with their kids. especially if thier husband dont have time for them too. the tendency, both couple would have a problem that result to divorce.
Where is the love that they shared? where is the promises and vows they had?

Cars Are Cars
Words & music by paul simon 1983
Cars are cars all over the world
Cars are cars all over the world
Similarly made. similarly sold
In a motorcade. abandoned when theyre old
Cars are cars all over the world
Cars are cars all over the world
Cars are cars all over the world
Engine in the front. jack in the back
Wheels take the brunt. pinion and a rack
Cars are cars all over the world
Cars are cars all over the world
But people are strangers
They change with the curve
From time zone to time zone
As we can observe
They shut down their borders
And think theyre immune
They stand on their differences
And shoot at the moon
But cars are cars all over the world
Cars are cars all over the world
Drive em on the left. drive em on the right
Susceptible to theft in the middle of the night
Cars are cars all over the world
Cars are cars all over the world
I once had a car
That was more like a home
I lived in it, loved in it
Polished its chrome
If some of my homes
Had been more like my car
I probably wouldnt have
Travelled this far
Cars are cars all over the world
Cars are cars all over the world
Cars are cars all over the world
Cars are cars all over the world
Cars are cars all over the world

My Man
My man is the best in the world,
Hes got the sun in his heart and the moon in his soul.
His heads in the clouds, but his feet on the ground,
And when he speaks, all the birds come around.
I love you, I love you.
My man is the best in the world,
His eyes got the shine of the ancient stars,
His heartbeat is the beat of the ocean,
He smells like an aztec magic potion.
I love you, I love you.
Ah - ah - ah -
Babalu-babalu-babalu, I love you, I love you.
Babalu-babalu-babalu, I love you, I love you.
My man is the best in the world,
He knows me like the palm of his hand.
When Im good, hes so very good
And when Im bad, he laughs and says, dont be sad.
I love you, I love you.
Babalu-babalu-babalu, (babalu) I love you, I love you.
Babalu-babalu-babalu, (babalu) I love you, I love you.

Miracle Of Love
The Miracle Of Love: Eurythmics
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How many sorrows
Do you try to hide
In a world of illusions
That's covering your mind?
I'll show you something good
Oh I'll show you something good.
When you open your mind
You'll discover the sign
That there's something
You're longing to find...
The miracle of love
Will take away your pain
When the miracle of love
Comes your way again.
Cruel is the night
That covers up your fears.
Tender is the one
Who wipes away your tears.
There must be a bitter breeze
To make you sting so viciously-
They say the greatest cowards
Can hurt the most ferociously.
But I'll show you something good
Oh I'll show you something good.
If you open your heart
You can make a new start
When your crumbling world falls apart.
(Chorus repeat

Leave the world like it
We may pass the bequest
So our children, too say
