The Girl With The Weight Of The World In Her Hands
She wont recover from her losses
Shes not chosen this path
But she watches who it crosses
Maybe move to the right
Maybe move to the left
So we can all see her pain she wears
Like a banner on her chest
And we all say its sad
And we think its a shame
And shes called to our attention
But we do not call her name
The girl with the weight
Of the world in her hands
Cause were busy with our happiness
And busy with our plans
I wonder if alone she wants it
Taken from her hands
But if things didnt keep getting harder
She might miss her sacred chance
To go a consecrated martyr
The girl with the weight
Of the world in her hands
I wonder which saint
That lives inside a bead
Will grant her consolation
When she counts upon her need
It makes us all angry
Though we feign to care
But who will be the scale
To weigh the cross she has to bear
The girl with the weight
Of the world in her hands
Is the glass half-full or empty
I ask her as I fill it
She said it doesnt really matter
Pretty soon youre bound to spill it
With the half logic language
Of the sermon she delivers
And the way she smiles so knowingly
At me gives me the shivers
I pull the blanket higher
When Im finally safe at home
And shell take a hundred with her
But she always sleeps alone
The girl with the weight
Of the world in her hands
I wonder which saint
That lives inside a bead
Will grant her consolation
When she counts upon her need
It makes us all angry
Though we feign to care
But who will be the scale
To weigh the cross she has to bear
The girl with the weight
Of the world in her hands

Weight Of The World
I used to carry the weight of the world
On my back
I never trusted my friends or my girl
Can you imagine that
I used to shuffle my feet
When I walked I hung my head down low
Kept to myself all my private thoughts
But when I met you girl.
I dropped the weight of the world
Weight of the world
I dropped the weight of the world
Weight of the world.
I knew some people used to dance all night
But not me
I never knew if it was wrong or right
To be so free
I used to close my eyes
And try to hide from the light of love
Spent all my time with the darkness inside
But when I met you girl.
I dropped the weight of the world
Weight of the world
I dropped the weight of the world
Weight of the world.
I was alone for all of my life
I was alone for all of my life
I was alone for all of my life
I was alone for all of my life
Until you came my way
I dropped the weight of the world
Weight of the world
I dropped the weight of the world
Weight of the world.

Who Will Cry For The Little Girl?
Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl that sleeps
Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl that weeps
Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl that will soon be grown
Who will cry for the little
the little girl who can't make it on her own
Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl who sits and stands
Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl who watches life in her hands
Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl that gives
Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl that lives
Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl that sleeps
Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl inside of me
Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl who used to be ME! !

What You Got
The way your body keeps moving
Is something that makes me weak
Lets start our own little secrets
For just you and me to keep
Too late to come off shy now
You've already gone this far
So baby make your move, take charge
Show me what you got for me
Oh no
(Girl)
Is that your hands, (your hands), rubbing on me
Oh no
(Girl)
Oh no
(Girl)
Is that your hands, (your hands), ooh on me
Oh no

Is that your hands, (your hands), rubbing on me
If so

If that's your hands, (your hands), then tell me what you got for me

My Girl
(rod stewart / chen, savigar, cregan, grainger, appice)
Miss you babe
Miss you babe
Shes everywhere I go
Shes everything I know
And now I think shes finally
Touched my soul
Shes heaven here on earth
Much more than I deserve
And I dont wanna ever let her go
Im getting used to all her ways
Everything she says
Her smiles, her frowns
Her ups and all her downs
Shes every move that I make
Shes every breath I take
Shes got a hold on me
That I dont wanna break
I mean my girl bring her home to me
My girl cant wait for you to see
My girl means everything to me
My girl my girl
My friends keep coming round
Saying come out on the town
Whats wrong, you aint the guy
We used to know
And I tell them I say
Without her by my side
Im only half alive
I love her so bad
And I dont care if it shows
I mean my girl
Bring her home to me
My girl, means everything to me
My girl, cant wait for you to see
My girl, my girl, my girl
At last my heart has found a home
This time I know where I belong
I mean my girl
Bring her home to me
My girl, cant wait for you to see
My girl, means everything to me
My girl, I just wanna see
My girl, my girl, my girl,my girl

Real Emotional Girl
Shes a real emotional girl
She wears her heart on her sleeve
Every little thing you tell her
Shell believe
She really will
She even cries in her sleep
Ive heard her
Many times before
I never had a girl who loved me
Half as much as this girl loves me
Shes real emotional
For eighteen years she lived at home
She was daddys little girl
And daddy helped her move out on her own
She met a boy
He broke her heart
And now she lives alone
And shes very, very careful
Yes she is
Shes a real emotional girl
Lives down deep inside her heart
She turns on easy
Its like a hurricane
You would not believe it
You gotta hold on tight to her
Shes a real emotional girl

Ghazal (3)
Hidden inside me lives this - delicate girl
Strange aspects, strange passions she has, this girl.
I an tell you why my hands bleed so
Bare hands chiselled her from stone, this girl.
Again in the pagan temple of thought she stands
With her wounded hands - she must be Aazar's girl.
She died of grief, when they stole her dignity
So tender was the girl who lived inside this girl.
Why should you blame me for this art-
I am not the artist, not am I Aazar's girl.
Though she scatters into myriad crystals
She curls into the apparition of a flower, this girl.
The owners of the haveli really wanted
To keep within the family their own girl.

A Care In The World
shes a girl perfect and small
shes a girl no care in the world
shes a girl popular and sweet
shes a girl no where to turn
out all night
boys all over her
doesnt realise
that its not safe
shes a girl perfect and small
shes a girl no care in the world
shes a girl popular and sweet
shes a girl no where to turn
but one night
shes all alone
no where to turn
now she has a care in the world.

That Girl
That girl will never be mine
Oh
First time, I saw her at the front door
That girl, her face on every billboard
Hands down
You wont believe the way she laid her eyes on me
Six feet, strut up from the catwalk
So fly, we got into a small talk
Too bad, she had to move along
One smile and she was gone
Cant explain
I never thought that I was gonna lose my head
Call me insane
Theres got to be a way
How can I get next to her
Now tell e how its gonna be done
Will I win or lose this one
Dont care about the fact that
Shes in a different league
They say its no use
That I try
That girl will never be mine
Mmm
Oo oo
Next thing,shes living in my tv
That girl, is stealing every daydream
Tough luck
She had to be a star when Im just same old me
Last night, I ran into her briefly
Guess what, she didnt want to see me
They said I was out of line
Whos wrong, whos right this time?
Cant explain
I never thought that I was gonna lose my head
Call me insane
Theres got to be a way
How can I get next to her
Now tell e how its gonna be done (tell me how its gonna be done)
Will I win or lose this one

Dont care about the fact that shes all that

Ha blown out the doubt
Theres no way for me to stop

Tough luck, she had to be the one for me (oh)

No matter what theyre tryin to say (trying to say)

Living In A World Without Her
My girl could break my heart
And tear my soul apart, but i
Couldnt see myself living in a world
Without her
Shes a tear, shes a scream
Takes me high, but my worst dream
Could I survive living in a world
Without her
As my mother said open the door
I didnt want to be that boy
All my friends told me Id pull through
But all thats said and all thats done
Wont persuade me that Im wrong
I know Id die living in a world
Without her
All my hopes and all my dreams
Rest with her, or so it seems
I never want to see the world
Without her
Shes a saint, shes a clown
Picks me up when Im down
Thered be so much missing from the world
Without her
Tangled up in falling vines
She took my hand, I know shes mine
Pickin up the pieces of the past
Well, I awoke before the dawn
Dreamed wed fought and she had gone
Now I know how it feels
Without her
An empty club, when we first met
Sharing our last cigarette
How could I have lived in a world
Without her
The sweetest girl I ever had
Shes the best, she must be mad
Theres no way I would live in a world
Without her
We walked four miles to get back home
Through the crowds we walked alone
She told me all about her last stand
The sun came up and lit the scene
She looked so fine, so I see
Theres no way Im living in a world
Without her

Babys Got A Brand New Hairdo
Babys got a brand-new hairdo, and doesnt she look so nice?
She said everything that she cares to, she said it not once but twice
She said it doesnt matter unless its her matters
Well, I dont care bout all
The girl that used to love it, and the girl I still hate
Babys got a brand-new hairdo, and doesnt she look so fine?
She said everything that she used to,
Except shes picking your heart, not mine
She said it doesnt matter unless I say it matters
She said pretty pink things on silver platters
I dont care about all the moms and dads
The girl that used to love it, and girl I still hate
Shes the girl that used to love it, and the girl I still hate
Babys got a brand-new hairdo, and doesnt she look so good?
She looks like jennifer harlow, said I wish you would
I wish you would
Babys got a brand new hairdo , I wonder whats left inside
She used to meet me at the mens room, before she learned how to be snide
She walks in the place and everybody scatters
I dont care about all the martin dress
Shes the girl who used to love it and the girl I used to hate

To Every Girl
To every girl that's said, 'Sex CAN wait'
To every girl that's said, 'You're handsome.'
To every girl that was never too busy to drive across town to see him.
To every girl that gives flowers and a card when he is sick.
To every girl who has given him flowers just because.
To every girl that said she would die for him.
To every girl that really would.
To every girl that took time to do what he wanted to do.
To every girl that he cried in front of.
To every girl that holds hands with him.
To every girl that kisses him with meaning.
To every girl that hugs him when he's sad.
To every girl that hugs him for no reason at all.
To every girl who would give their jacket up for him.
To every girl that calls to make sure he got home safe.
To every girl that would sit and wait for him for hours
just to see him for ten minutes.
To every girl that would give her seat up.
To every girl that just wants to cuddle.
To every girl that reassured that he was handsome
no matter what.
To every girl who told her secrets to him.
To every girl that tried to show how much she cared
through every word and every breath.
To every girl that thought maybe this could be the one.
To every girl that believed in his dreams.
To every girl that would have done anything
so he could achieve them.
To every girl that never laughed at him
when she told him her dreams.
To every girl that walked him to his car.
To every girl that gave her heart.
To every girl who prays that he is happy
even if she is not with him.

One Boy Girl
Written: kylie minogue, willie wilcox
Im a one boy, one boy girl
You know Im a one boy girl
1:
Some girls, say in their world
They couldnt bear to have just him
But i, dont need a load of guys
To pump up my self esteem
Girl what you doin with just one guy
Given all my lovin
What you gonna do when
Theres lipstick on his collar
Youre gonna get old before your time
You cant tell me nothing,
bout this man of mine
Chorus:
No other love could ever
Compare to my lover
Im a one boy, one boy girl
No other touch could mean half as much
As my lover
You know Im a one boy girl
2:
Check it out
Some guys never realise
What a girl needs from a man
But my guy always satisfies
Its a love we understand
Dont you wanna go out and play
Im sorry but Im busy
What if you call and there isnt any answer
Youre gonna find him gone one day
Hell always be with me no matter what you say
Chorus:
No other kiss is the one that I miss
With my lover
Im a one boy, one boy girl
No other man could love like he can
As my lover
You know Im a one boy girl
Rap:
Hey you kylie...mmm hmmm
Whats up with this one-boy-girl thing...well
Let me break it down like this, yeah right
It doesnt play to stay or be good
You know how guys are, I dont think he good
Be with just one, and what if he cheats ya
Girl just have fun go out and meet ya
Two or three more.. I dont think so
You should see more..no I dont think so
How could you be sure..i believe him
Youre in for heartbeat you dont need him
What if he hurts you..he wont do that
Are you sure...yeah thats a fact
Theres lots of guys in this world
Not for me, Im a one-boy-girl
No other love (no other love)
My lover, ohh
One boy, one boy girl
No other touch (no other touch)

Real Me
I know a girl who welcomes the world
I think though the world is spoiled
And she holds on to me
She holds my head up so that I can breathe
And Ive found that when Im on the ground
Shes the only one still sticking around
Only she knows the real me
And I know that she wont let me down
And I get mine
No way I could ever leave today
Cause she listens to the dumb things that I say
And I seem to get high
With just one smile as she walks on by
And I found that when Im on the ground
She is the only one sticking around
Only she knows the real me
And I know that she wont let me down
Theres only one girl in this world who understands the real me
Theres nothing superficial artificial
You get just what you see
I know a girl who takes up my world
Takes all of me and every breath that I hold
We meet and she makes me feel free
With one look she knows just what I need
And Ive found that shes got me bound
Cause shes the only one that my mind surrounds
Only she knows the real me
And I know that she wont let me down
I know a girl who wakes up my world
Brings in the warmth when Im feeling cold
And shes got places to be
But she says that she would rather stay here with me
And Ive found that when Im on the ground
Shes the only one sticking around
Only she knows the real me
And I know tht she wont let me down

Don’t fall little girl
Don’t let them see you cry
Stand tall little girl
Keep your head held high

Don’t express little girl
Don’t let them see the pain in your eyes
Walk on little girl
Walk through all those pitiful lies

Don’t forget little girl
Don’t let them do it to you once more
Protect yourself little girl
There’s plenty more in store

Don’t hate little girl
That’s what they want you to do
Smile bright little girl
Try you’re hardest to be true

Don’t wait little girl
The world will move on without you
Move on little girl
Do what you need to do

Don’t look back little girl
You cant change your past
Open your eyes little girl
Enjoy the world while it lasts

Live life little girl
Cause you only got one
Laugh loudly little girl
And put down you damn gun

You’re me little girl
Haven’t we learned a lot?
But your also them little girl
In each of us you have fought

Some call you hope, little girl
You glow dim then turn bright
Some call you dreams, little girl
Thinking of you every night

But to me, little girl
You will always just be me
Guide us, little girl

Who's the Girl?
Who's the girl in the mirror?
Who's the girl in the frame?
Who's the girl with the smile that has faded off her face?
Who's the girl with the tears slowly rolling off her cheeks?
Who's the girl that cared about you?
Who's the girl that gave up everything?
Who's the girl that can't smile?
Who's the girl that's in denial?
Who's the girl that hit the ground, thinking that you'd catch her now?
Who's the girl that was betrayed?
Who's the girl that's in pain?
Who's the girl in the shadows?
Who's the girl in the shade?
Who's the girl whose light can't shine?
Who's the girl that's been left behind?
Who's the girl in that world that's been left? , There's no doubt.... she's not there.
Who's the girl that was once deep inside your heart?
Who's the girl that has cried and slowly died inside her mind?
Who's the girl you've forgotten?
Who's the girl you have hurt?
Who's the girl that has left?
Who's the girl?
Who is she?
You've forgotten her....

The Lights Are Going Out
Theres a painting on the wall
That wasnt there at all
Ten minutes ago
Theres a girl who walks the line
Shes with you all the time
She wont let go
And I cant see me with another girl
As everything slows down across the world
The lights are going out
One by one
Across the world
With faces turning sown
The night will hide the sound
She comes to you
And I cant see me with another girl
As everything slows down across the world
In a harbor safe from storm
She waits for darkened forms
Shes seen you there
And time and time again
You hear her call your name
She calls for you
And I cant see me with another girl
As everything slows down across the world
The lights are gong out
One by one
Across the world
The lights are going out
One by one
Across the world
