No Future In The Past

Written by stuart elliott
Yesterdays come easy
Theyre looking back at you
The sun will rise tomorrow
Theres nothing you can do
Its the same old story
Coming round again
What is done is done now
You know you cant hold back the rain
And theres no future in the past
So take it slow c youre getting nowhere fast
You could be saving the situation now
Youd better run like the devil if you still know how
You know the tide is turning
Its got you on the run
Your last bridge is burning
No time for having fun
Time will wait for no one
To get their days work done
Were in this boat together
You know one and one and one aint one
Chorus
Weve come a long long way
Maybe one day youll see the light
But dont let it die
Dont let it fade away into the night
Yesterdays come easy
Theyre looking back at you
The sun will rise tomorrow
Theres nothing you can do
Its the same old story
Coming round again
What is done is done now
You know you cant hold back the rain
Chorus

Hold Back The Rain

Were miles away from nowhere
And the wind doesnt have a name
So call it what you want to call it
Still blows down the lane
People tell me, I havent changed at all
But I dont feel the same
And I bet youve had that feeling too
You just cant laugh all the time
And if the fires burn out theres only fire to blame
(hold back the rain)
No time for worry cause were on the roam again.
(hold back the rain)
The clouds all scatter and we ride the outside lane
(hold back the rain)
Not on your own so help me please.. hold back the rain
-
So what if the words aint rhyming
Did you think that its just a game
I probably didnt even say that right
And I really dont give a damn
Okay go off and wander
Im guilty just the same
Sometimes youre needed badly
So please come back again
(chorus)
-
And if the stars burn out, theirs only fire to blame
(hold back the rain)
No time for worry cause were on the roam again.
(hold back the rain)
The clouds all scatter and we ride the outside lane
(hold back the rain)
Not on your own so help me please.. hold back the rain
Hold back the rain
Hold back the rain
Hold back the rain
Hold back the rain
Hold back the rain
Hold back the rain
Hold back the rain
Hold back the rain

Coming Back To You

Maybe Im still hurting
I cant turn the other cheek
But you know that I still love you
Its just that I cant speak
I looked for you in everyone
And they called me on that too
I lived alone but I was only
Coming back to you
Ah theyre shutting down the factory now
Just when all the bills are due
And the fields theyre under lock and key
Tho the rain and the sun come through
And springtime starts but then it stops
In the name of something new
And all the senses rise against this
Coming back to you
And theyre handing down my sentence now
And I know what I must do
Another mile of silence while im
Coming back to you
There are many in your life
And many still to be
Since you are a shining light
Theres many that youll see
But I have to deal with envy
When you choose the precious few
Whove left their pride on the other side of
Coming back to you
Even in your arms I know
Ill never get it right
Even when you bend to give me
Comfort in the night
Ive got to have your word on this
Or none of it is true
And all Ive said was just instead of
Coming back to you

When Are You Coming Back?

(l. stansfield/i. devaney/ a. morris)
Chorus:
Tell me when youre coming back
When are you comin back, when are you coming back
When are you comin back, when are you coming back
(when are you comin home, baby, baby)
When are you comin back, when are you coming back
When are you comin back, when are you coming back
You were in my arms yesterday, and now youre gone
I still feel your lips on mine, still feel your touch
Safe inside your arms is where I want to be, cant stand this space
Boy, Im gettin lonely, and out of place
Dont stray for too long
(till the next time)
Go back to my arms
Dont stray for too long
(till the next time)
Go back to my arms
Chorus
I sit here and wait patently for the telephone
Funny how I miss you, and I miss you so
When youre not at home
Dont stray for too long
(till the next time)
Go back to my arms
Dont stray for too long
(till the next time)
Go back to my arms
Chorus x 2
Dont stray for too long
(till the next time)
Go back to my arms
Dont stray for too long
(till the next time)
Go back to my arms
Chorus

Dont Stop

Written by christine mcvie.
If you wake up and dont want to smile,
If it takes just a little while,
Open your eyes and look at the day,
Youll see things in a different way.
Dont stop, thinking about tomorrow,
Dont stop, itll soon be here,
Itll be, better than before,
Yesterdays gone, yesterdays gone.
Why not think about times to come,
And not about the things that youve done,
If your life was bad to you,
Just think what tomorrow will do.
Dont stop, thinking about tomorrow,
Dont stop, itll soon be here,
Itll be, better than before,
Yesterdays gone, yesterdays gone.
All I want is to see you smile,
If it takes just a little while,
I know you dont believe that its true,
I never meant any harm to you.
Dont stop, thinking about tomorrow,
Dont stop, itll soon be here,
Itll be, better than before,
Yesterdays gone, yesterdays gone.
Dont you look back,
Dont you look back.

They Dont Make em Like They Used To

Its every young boys fancy
Its there hidden deep in the heart of a man
Its just a feeling
They wont ever understand
They know they gotta have one
A brand new model and its here today
And dont you know that shes made right here in the u.s.a.
(chorus)
Dont ever stop trying
Dont let her get away
They dont make em like they used to
I think theyre better than before
Its more than physical attraction
Keeps you coming back for more
Shes a home grown beauty
Shes born and raised with a mind of her own
And once you find her
Youll never want to leave her alone
Shes making you crazy
You cant live without her, shes here to stay
Dont you know that she lives right here in the u.s.a.
Chorus
They dont make em like they used to
Theyre so much better than before
Im so tired of hearing--(Im so tired)
Some people say--(what people say)
Everything is moving much too fast
Things were better in the good old days
Let them have their opinions--(let them have...)
Never gonna change their mind--(theyll never change)
They lived a long time ago
When times were tough
And a real good woman was hard to find
They dont make em like they used to
I think theyre better than before
Its more than physical attraction
That keeps you coming back for more
Chorus
They dont make em like they used to
Theyre so much better than before

Goin Home

Midnight on a southern highway
Dont know if Im going the right way
I havent seen a single sign for miles
All this stormy weather
Keeping us from being together
How long has it been since Ive seen your smile
In this tunnel called the night
I can finally see a light
Ive got a burning deep inside
I thought you might understand
Im drivin as fast as I can
And you said youd wait for me
Chorus
Goin home
Cause Ive been away much too long
Goin home
Going back to the place where my heart belongs
Goin home
Going back where I left my family
Goin home
And I hope that theyre still waitin there for me
In the eyes of the legal tender
Youre the one who must surrender
I think they call it responsibility
Im a man in emotion
With only one compulsion
Ive got to follow these dreams inside my heart
Im not looking for a fight
No ones wrong and no ones right
Maybe we all need time apart
So please understand
Im doin the best that I can
And you said youd wait for me
Chorus
Goin home
Cause Ive been away much too long
Goin home
Going back to the place where my heart belongs
Goin home
Going back where I left my sanity
Goin home
And I hope that its still waitin there for me
Solo
I thought youd might understand
Im drivinas fast as I can
And you said youd wait for me
Chorus
Goin home
Cause Ive been away much too long
Goin home
Going back to the place where my heart belongs
Goin home
Going back where I left my family
Goin home
And I hope that theyre still waiting there for me
Going home
Going home
Yeah, baby

Can’t Hold Back The Years

I sit here reading the letter
as my tears smudge the ink.
I can’t hold them back
no more than I could
hold back the years.
The words say you have left me
that you’ve moved out today.
That you won’t be coming back
no matter what I say.

I sit with my head bowed
remembering good time we had.
Remembering the sorrow and sadness
that followed in the good times wake.
Remembering those precious moments,
we wanted to last forever,
but disappeared at the blink of an eye.
I can’t hold back the years
nor the tears I cry.

Tomorrow heralds a brand new day,
a brand new start some would say.
When we should erase yesterdays
and start a new life,
but it isn’t that easy,
as we need our yesterdays
to build that new day.
If we haven’t got them,
what will happen is hard to say.

As I sit here and read your letter
my tears still fall,
and I can’t hold back the years
no more than I can hold back the tears
for our lost yesterdays.

Finding Me

I dont think you notice
When you see my face
I guess youre waiting
To spin me around again
Wheels I guess are turning
Somewhere inside my head
I know that this is
Deeper than you get
But youre coming back again
You dont mean to waste my time
But youre coming back so
Chorus
Dont tell me
How to be
cause I like some suffering
Dont ask me
What I need
Im just fine
Here finding me
Me
Ive already given
Up on getting through
I never question
Who Im talking to
Oh so much for nothing
But nothing means so much
I know its touching
But Ive been out of touch
And its all that I can do
Im a sight for my sore eyes
But its all I am so
Chorus
I dont think you notice
When I cant reach out
I guess youre waiting
On somebody else again
Oh so much for talking
Its all been said before
Im hearing something
But I wish youd just say more
But youre going off again
When I try to just hold on
But youre going off so
Chorus

Down Another Day

The end is near, the summer days
All the great things go away
Feel the cold comin' 'round again
Everything's gonna change again
Down another day, down another day
Oh, the winter i adore
Summer's gone forever more
Some days you come back to me
Seasons change, and set me free
Down another day, down another day
Don't have to bore you with details (i'll never let you down)
And every morning, the sun rise (will never let you down)
If i could hold you tomorrow (i'll never let you down)
When she's cold in the ocean (we'll never let you down)
The end is near, my winter fling
Change is melting everything
Now it's time, to sing for love
Season come, season go
Down another day, down another day
Don't have to bore you with details (i'll never let you down)
And every morning, the sun rise (will never let you down)
If i could hold you tomorrow (i'll never let you down)
When she's cold in the ocean (we'll never let you down)
I keep saying goodbye, saying goodbye
Keep saying goodbye
And she's all that's coming back, she keeps coming back
She keeps coming back
I keep saying goodbye, saying goodbye
Keep saying goodbye
And she's all that's coming back, she keeps coming back
You keep coming back
Don't have to bore you with details (i'll never let you down)
And every morning, the sun rise (will never let you down)
If i could hold you tomorrow (i'll never let you down)
When she's cold in the ocean (we'll never let you down)
Down another day, down another day
(we'll never let you down)
Down another day, down another day

Living On A Frontline

Bad days are coming
Back into my head
Theyre looking for trouble, is that alright
You know youve seen them before
And now theyre turning
Into the deepest nights
Shadows on the wall - dont surrender at all
Youre not alone this time
Do or die - youll always be on the run
Like a soldier in time - rain or shine
Aces high - youd better be on the ball
Dont move outta the way - stand for what youve gotta say
Were living on a frontline
Always trying not to go
Were living on a frontline
Its much more than enough this time
Were living on a frontline
Now you start searching
For a better life
Better not look back - go straight ahead
Just be yourself all the time
Do or die - youll always be on the run
Like a soldier in time - rain or shine
Aces high - youd better be on the ball
Dont move outta the way - stand for what youve gotta say
Were living on a frontline
Always trying not to go
Were living on a frontline
Its much more than enough this time
Were living - living on a frontline
Always trying not to go
Were living on a frontline
Its much - its much too much this time
Go ahead this time
Ah, were living on a frontline
Ah, its a bad game
Ive told you before
So stay away from the frontline
And your friends next door
You say youre lonely
But I dont want them no more
But one day - youre gonna see
Theyre gonna disappear
Were living on a frontline
Always trying not to go
Were living on a frontline
Its much more than enough this time
Were living - living on the frontline
Always trying not to go
Were living on a frontline
Its much - its much too much this time
On a frontline

You Aint Got A Hold On Me

You can roll me round your finger
You can roll me if Im blind
You can roll me tally ho ho

But dont think Im facin down hill
cause soon youll see
Youll lose your grip and slip
cause you aint got a hold on me

You aint got a hold on me
You aint got a hold on me
Why dont you let me free

You can take me to your bedroom
You can take me to your heart
You can take me to a climax
I wont fall apart
But dont count on me givin it
All back to you
Just because Im hooked on livin
Doesnt mean Im hooked on you

Dont Look Back

Written by cole-yancy-allen
Everyday the population is growing and to find some peace of mind is something rare
Dont you get discouraged keep on going and dont you mind the way that the people turn and stare
Now how long can you keep on feeling guilty and tell me why should you feel bad about feeling good
Dont you know that the world is cold and filthy, aw yes it is, but if youre a special child
They know sometimes youll be misunderstood, (you can never look back)
Yesterday is dead and gone, (dont you look back) your tomorrow is here today
Keep on fighting, a quitter never wins, hold your breath stick out your chin
Count to ten start again, everybody wants to be somebody
But they cant seem to see the forest for the trees, we just cant let our past
Hold back our future, oh, no, no, when its all over but the shouting
Nothing is left but memories, looks like you could use a little bit of happiness
Now I know that its really hard to find, but you owe it to yourself to have the very best
And only a fool will try to catch up to what he has left behind, (you can never look back)
No, no, cause yesterday is dead and gone, (dont you look back) your tomorrow is here today
And when youre crying, you need someone to hold on to
Its not the end of the world my friend, tip your hat, start again
And keep a positive direction, oh, keep your vision straight ahead
You cant lose with the stuff you use, weve come too far just to turn around, oh, oh,
Dont you look back, yesterday is dead and gone (dont you look back)
Your tomorrow is on the way and if youre fighting, people, a quitter never wins
Hold your breath stick out your chin, count to ten, start again, dont you look back
No, no, uh, oh, (dont look back) no cause weve come much too far
Just to turn around, uh, oh, oh, (repeat dont you look back) dont you look back now
Yesterday is dead and gone, dont you look back, your tomorrow is here today
And when youre crying, cause all your friends have forsaken you
Its not the end of the world my friend, just tip your hat start again
Keep on steppin yaul, dont look back, dont turn your head around
Get up, get out on the good foot, keep on fightin, yeah, hold your breath
Stick out your chin, count to ten and start again dont try it
You got to keep on movin yaul, get, get, get up on the good foot

Preachers Of The Night

See the gates of hell and theyre still bleeding
Creatures of the night are creeping out - so proud
Ill be there once more to feed them
More and more theyre sneaking in my mind - so strong
All in all nothings left behind
Cannot hold it back this dark desire
Dont turn your head or youll be dead
The good have gone to ground - you know why
Preachers of the night - theyre calling
Preachers of the night - there will be no tomorrow
Preachers of the night - Im falling
Preachers of the night - they want me back
Touch the gates of hell while theyre still bleeding
Tearing at my soul and watch it weep - so raw
You better back off
My mind is not my own take heed then
All evils been unleashed within us all - so war!
You better back off
All in all nothings left behind
Cannot hold it back this dark desire
Dont turn your head or youll be dead
The good have gone to ground - you know why
Preachers of the night - theyre calling
Preachers of the night - there will be no tomorrow
Preachers of the night - Im falling
Preachers of the night - they want me back
Deal me out - Ive had enough
Trading in the kingdom of te beast
Step by step - not far behind me
Flesh and blood will never rest in peace
All in all nothings left behind
Cannot hold it back this dark desire
Dont turn your head or youll be dead
The good have gone to ground - you know why
Preachers of the night - theyre calling
Preachers of the night - there will be no tomorrow
Preachers of the night - Im falling
Preachers of the night - they want me back
Preachers of the night - theyre calling
Preachers of the night - there will be no tomorrow
Preachers of the night - Im falling
Preachers of the night - they want me back

Yesterdays Songs

Written by: neil diamond
Yesterdays songs
Dont stay around long
Not much anymore
Yesterdays words
Dont make themselves heard
Like they did before
Baby, yesterdays blues
May be yesterdays news
But the truth always stays the same
And good things will never change
Like sayin I love you
Sayin I love you
Yesterdays songs
Dont seem to belong
Theyre here and theyre gone
Yesterdays moves
Dont stay in the grooves
They keep moving on
Maybe yesterdays rhyme
Was for yesterdays time
And the futures not ours to see
But theres some things that always will be
Like sayin I love you
Sayin I love you

Heaven must be wonderin where you are
Mornin finds me prayin please let me keep her
Each night finds me wishin on a star

With the one who never, ever was in love
Im back to bein me
These eyes that used to cry myself to sleep
Now theyre dry they dont lay me down to weep
For the first time in a long time I like seeing what I see
No thanks to you
Im back to bein me
These eyes that used to cry myself to sleep
Now theyre dry they dont lay me down to weep
For the first time in a long time I like seeing what I see
No thanks to you
Im back to bein me
Im back to bein me
Im back to bein nobody
The who I was before I was your used to be
Im back to bein me
Im back to who I was
Before I was the one who fell in love
With the one who never, ever was in love
Im back to bein me

Keep Coming Back

You know just how to hurt me
And how to take all the pain away
Girl, you must be the devil in disguise
There were tiimes, I think you knew
When I was so afraid of you
Theres some kind of madness in your eyes
You know a place buried deep in my heart
Nobody else can see
Something in you has taken some kind of hold on me
Chorus
I dont know why I keep coming back to you, baby
I dont know why I keep coming back to you
To you baby
You say we shouldnt be lovers
And I say we cant just be friends
And all this talking just makes me want you more
Youve got a way of confusing a heart
That nobody else could do
Why should I try, I dont want to get over you
Chorus
I dont know why I keep coming back to you, baby
Just tell me why I keep coming back to you
I dont know why I keep coming back to you, baby
Tell me why I keep coming back to you
Im so in love, so in love with the games that you play
So in love, and nothing can keep me away
Youve got a way of confusing a heat
That nobody else could do
Why should I try, I dont want to get over you
Repeat chorus

Been Here Once Before

Got your back up against the wall
Now you know that after all
When you make mistakes like that
Theres no more turning back
Now weve gone and weve lost our heads
Youre better off just playing dead
Why you wearing that black hat
Theres no point in turning back
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before
Well all you know is you need to win
Should you go when your call comes in
Once you see all the blood that flows
I dont think youll be winning more
Now I thought that was all in the past
And that beast would come back last
Once again we are at war
Yes I know weve been here before
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before...thats for sure
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before
And I dont think youll be winning more
Weve been here once before
Weve been here thats for sure
I dont think youll be winning more
Weve been here once before
Weve been here thats for sure
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before...thats for sure
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before
And I dont think youll be winning more
Weve been here once before
Weve been here thats for sure
I dont think youll be winning more
Weve been here once before
Weve been here thats for sure
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before
Been here once before...

She Keeps On Coming

(b, r & m gibb)
Front and centre
I dont know how it happened then
I cant explain it
What was she thinking of when
Mother nature
She put us both together, and
The way she touched me
And I ran that red light and so i
Said I love her
She tell me I dont matter
I try to kiss her
But every dream is shattered
No early warning
Except the morning after
Look in the mirror like a rabbit in the headlights
She keeps on coming back for more
She keeps on coming back for more
She keeps on coming back for more
Champagne and roses
Breakfast in bed
Wrapped in each other
And out of my head
She keeps on coming back for more
She keeps on coming back for more
Oh no
Oh no
Yeah
Oh no
She aint no cleopatra
I aint no julius caesar
I aint no casanova
She aint no mona lisa
She charm a nation
She send you out to die
And we were flying when she ran that red light
I aint no valentino
She aint no greta garbo
No aphrodite
Ill never be apollo
But when we come together
Theres no one else can follow
Theres no tomorrow when we run that red light
She keeps on coming back for more
She keeps on coming back for more
She keeps on knocking at the door
Drunk on desire
Erotic delights
Sooner or later, shell kiss you goodnight
She keeps on coming back for more
She keeps on coming back for more
Oh no
Oh no
Oh no
Oh no
Midnight
Die in the arms of a lover
Hold tight
I close my eyes and shes gone
Dream time
Shes mine
Always here
Small town
Daytime
Disappear
She keeps on coming back for more
She keeps on coming back for more
She keeps on coming back for more
Drunk on desire
Erotic delights
Sooner or later, shell kiss you goodnight
But she keeps on coming back for more
She keeps on coming back for more
She keeps on knocking at the door
She keeps on coming back for more
She keeps on coming back for more

Seven Nation Army

Im gonna fight em off
A seven nation army couldnt hold me back
Theyre gonna rip it off
Taking their time right behind my back
And Im talking to myself at night
Because I cant forget
Back and forth through my mind
Behind a cigarette
And the message coming from my eyes
Says leave it alone
Dont want to hear about it
Every single ones got a story to tell
Everyone knows about it
From the queen of england to the hounds of hell
And if I catch it coming back my way
Im gonna serve it to you
And that aint what you want to hear,
But thats what Ill do
And the feeling coming from my bones
Says find a home
Im going to wichita
Far from this opera for evermore
Im gonna work the straw
Make the sweat drip out of every pore
And Im bleeding, and Im bleeding, and Im bleeding
Right before the lord
All the words are gonna bleed from me
And I will think no more
And the stains coming from my blood
Tell me go back home

If I Dont Have You

Every day girl I wake up and pray
That youll come back home
And dont take to long
cause since youve been gone
Everythings gone all wrong
I wish you were here
Holding me near
You know Id go
Out of my mind
If you ever left
My heart beats high
So Im begging you please
Bring your sweet love back to me(please come back to me)
Chorus
If I dont have you(dont have you)
To hold on to(to hold on to)
I cant go on
In this world alone
Baby its true
If I dont have you
If you said good-bye(you said good-bye)
Girl I would die(girl I would die)
Im a star with no light
A day with no night
If I dont have you
Late at night
I reach to hold you tight
But youre not there(youre just not there baby)
I know you still care(I know you still care)
And all I need
Youre soft and love, lovely kiss
You give to me (to me)
So tenderly
Will you still feel
The time will stand still
When I see you, baby you will
So hurry home
You know you made me just so
Chorus(x2)
You know Ill go crazy without you
