A Floating Life
In your hands theres a photograph
You look up, she begins to laugh
So cold as she walks away
And you know that its time to pay
Youre caught in a web you spun yourself
Face to face with your failure this very day
You call out her name you cant help yourself
But you need love like you need a - kick in the head
You worked hard for the things you own
Fancy cars and a country home
Gave it all for a glittering prize
To be a face people recognise
On the walls of your home there are works of art
But you stare at the picture - on the floor
The face of a man with an aching heart
Its no fun to be famous anymore
(you said )
This is a sad day
And I would gladly give it all away
In exchange
For a floating life
Shed your tears for a shallow dream
Let your cry be a primal scream
A song through the mists of time
A serenade to your concubine
You were wrong to believe she could set you free
Youre trapped by the trappings - of success
And you know the shell never let you be
til the world knows the secrets - you confessed
(you said)
I see her cruel face
My heart is nothing but an empty space
And on this sad day
I would gladly give it all away
In exchange
For a floating life
Neither asleep nor awake
Losing control you start to shake
As the day begins to break
Theyre gonna shoot you down in flames
When that girl starts naming names
Theres nowhere to hide from your shame

Now Youre Gone
(coverdale/vandenberg)
Now youre gone
I can feel my heart is breaking,
An I cant go on
When I think of the love that youve taken
In the night I pray for your embrace,
Every time I close my eyes
I cant escape your face
Youre out of sight,
But, always on my mind,
I never realised
My love could be so blind
Youre all I want,
Cant you feel the love
In this heart of mine
Youre all I need,
So maybe we could turn back
The hands of time,
Maybe we could give it another try
One more time
But, now youre gone
Theres an emptiness closing around me,
An I cant go on
When all I have left is the memory
In the night I call out your name,
I wake up in a cold sweat
An Im all alone again
I need your love
Much more than I can say,
I realise without you
I cant face another day
Youre all I want,
Cant you feel the love
In this heart of mine
Youre all that I need,
Since I lost you, girl,
Ive been losing my mind
Youre all that I want,
So maybe we could turn back
The hands of time,
Maybe we could give it
Another try
One more time,
Baby, just one more time
Now youre gone
I can feel my heart is breaking,
An I cant go on
When all of my love has been taken
Youre all I want,
Cant you feel the love
In this heart of mine
Youre all that I need,
Since I lost you, girl,
Ive been losing my mind
Youre all I want,
Cant you feel the love
In this heart of mine
Youre all that I need,
Since I lost you, girl,
Ive been losing my mind...

Face To Face
Now I've got a chick who will be with me
Anytime, day or night
But I won't put up with no runnin' around
You know it just ain't right
I'm going down...
To the town -
Out to go drink with the clowns
You stay at home...
All alone -
And don't you talk on the phone
You're comin' face to face with the guy that's gonna knock you dead
Face to face with the guy that's gonna bust your head
I'm gonna knock you on the floor
You'll beg me for no more
You're comin' face to face with me, like it or not
When I got to town
The words going 'round
That you've been seen on your back
I open the door and you were on the floor
Spreadin' for the clowns in my pack
Now you were wrong...
If you thought -
I'd take it lyin' down like a dog
I put a match...
In her snatch
She thinks she's such a hot little vamp
You're comin' face to face with the guy that's gonna knock you dead
Face to face with the guy that's gonna bust your head
I'm gonna knock you on the floor
You'll beg me for no more
You comn' face to face with me, like it or not
Tear your face apart
Waste you in the dark
Rip you like a shark
Won't think you're so smart
Face to face (face to face) you disgrace
Face to face (face to face) you disgrace
Face to face (face to face) you disgrace
Face to face
Face to face
Face to face with the guy that's gonna knock you dead
Your're comin' face to face with the guy that's gonna bust your head
I'm gonna knock you on the floor
You'll beg me for no more
You're comin' face to face with me, like it or not
You're cominc12

Dream Operator
When you were little
You dreamed you were big
You must have been something
A real tiny kid
You wish you were me
I wish I was you
Now dont you wake up
The dream will come true
Every dream has a name
And names tell your story
This song is your dream
Youre the dream operator
Its bigger than life
You know its all me
My face is a book
But its not what it seems
Three angels above
The whole human race
They dream us to life
They dream me a face
And every dream tells it all
And this dream is your story
You dreamed me a heart
Youre the dream operator
Shake-it-up dream
Hi-di-ho dream
Fix-it-up dream
Look at me dream
Ive been waiting so long
Now I am your dream
Hard to forget
Hard to go on
When you fall asleep
Youre out on your own
Let go of your life
Grab on to my hand
Here in the clouds
Where well understand
And you dreamed it all
And this is your story
Do you know who you are?
Youre the dream operator
And you dreamed it all
And this is your story
Do you know who you are?
Youre the dream operator

Addicted To Love
Your lights are on, but youre not home
Your mind is not your own
Your heart sweats, your body shakes
Another kiss is what it takes
You cant sleep, you cant eat
Theres no doubt, youre in deep
Your throat is tight, you cant breathe
Another kiss is all you need
Whoa, you like to think that youre immune to the stuff, oh
Yeah
Its closer to the truth to say you cant get enough, you
Know youre
Gonna have to face it, youre addicted to love
You see the signs, but you cant read
Youre runnin at a different speed
You heart beats in double time
Another kiss and youll be mine, a one track mind
You cant be saved
Oblivion is all you crave
If theres some left for you
You dont mind if you do
Whoa, you like to think that youre immune to the stuff, oh
Yeah
Its closer to the truth to say you cant get enough, you
Know youre
Gonna have to face it, youre addicted to love
Might as well face it, youre addicted to love
Might as well face it, youre addicted to love
Might as well face it, youre addicted to love
Might as well face it, youre addicted to love
Might as well face it, youre addicted to love
Guitar solo (once around)
Your lights are on, but youre not home
Your will is not your own
Youre heart sweats and teeth grind
Another kiss and youll be mine
Whoa, you like to think that youre immune to the stuff, oh
Yeah
Its closer to the truth to say you cant get enough, you
Know youre
Gonna have to face it, youre addicted to love
Might as well face it, youre addicted to love
Might as well face it, youre addicted to love
Might as well face it, youre addicted to love

Just One Kiss
You look a little lonely, babe, a little blue
You know youre not the only one, Im lonely too
I been surviving just day by day
I had some dreams but they all blew away
And then I saw your face across a crowded room
My heart missed a beat, oh, did you feel it too
To trust someone you just gotta be bold
The wall that youre building is crumbling, oh
Why dont we break it down
Why dont we break it down, pretty baby
Its gonna, its gonna take
Take just one kiss, just one kiss
Its gonna, its gonna take
Take just one kiss
To break it down
You look a little lonely, babe, a little blue
I said youre not the only one, Im lonely too
I cant deny my heart anymore
You give me a feeling that I cant ignore
You try to play it safe, but youre not really shy
You try to look away, but I caught your eye
You cant hide, its all over your face
The barrier between us is losing its place
Why dont we break it down
Why dont we break it down, pretty baby
Its gonna, its gonna take
Take just one kiss, just one kiss
Its gonna, its gonna take,
Take just one kiss, yeah just one kiss,
Its gonna, its gonna take
Take just one kiss
To break it down
Why dont we break it down
Why dont we break it down, pretty baby
Its gonna, its gonna take
Take just one kiss, just one kiss

Dont Run Away
(tell me) does your head keep turning,
From the feelings churning,
Deep inside of you?
(tell me) when your mind is racing,
All the things youre chasing,
Worth your while, well?

Why youre always guessin
Reasons for your life?

Long ago the savior,
Died...for you, so,
Dont run away,
Youre headed no where, (dont run away....)
Keep up the face,
Youre gonna go there, (keep up the face.)
Youll feel alone,
Who do you know there?
Please turn back now.
Dont run away,
He wants your heart now, (dont run away....)
Hear what I say,
And play it smart now, (what I say....)
Wise up today,
And give him all of your love....
(tell me) does the fear of losing
Keep your heart from choosing
Who has hold of you?
(tell me) have you felt the yearning,
Deep inside, a burning
Need for love, now?
(tell me) tell me, can you sense a fighting?
Hate is now igniting,
Fear of loving you.
(listen) listen, God is still here waiting;
Hell remove the hating
Part...of you, so,
Dont run away,
Youre headed no where, (dont run away....)
Keep up the face,
Youre gonna go there, (keep up the face.)

Exploder
Met a man locked away
For things he hadnt done
Innocense on a ball and chain
Never feel the sun
A grin on his face
Roses in his hands
But when he smiled at me
I could understand
If youre free youll never see the walls
If youre head is clear youll never freefall
If youre out right you never fear the wrong
If youre head is high you never fear at all
There was a daughter of a man
Took his life too young
She swore shed never do those things
Then did just what hed done
And a boy whose gone insane
Voices in his head
No one knows what they say
Now his mothers dead
If youre free youll never see the walls
If youre head is clear youll never freefall
If youre right you never fear the wrong
If youre head is high you never fear at all
Cuttin me down
Cuttin me down
There was a man who had a face
It looked alot like me
I saw him in the mirror and I fought him in the street
Then when he turned away I shot him in the head
Then I came to realize I had killed myself
If youre free youll never see the walls
If youre head is clear youll never freefall
If youre right you never fear the wrong
If youre head is high you never fear
Cuttin me down and
Cuttin me down

Shell Have You Back
(track 3 - time 3:25)
(deryl dodd/blake a. chancey)
Once upon a lonely time
She swore shed never let you down
You held her tight without a care in mind
While she did her runnin round
At first you wouldnt face the truth
You loved her too much to let go
And though the story had to end
You wanna be her fool again
Friend theres something you should know
Shell have you back
Back to drinkin in no time
Back to walkin on your knees
Boy open up your eyes and see the light
Some things just arent meant to be
I understand how she can get to you
cause shes made more than one man blind
So try and face the cold hard fact
She would gladly have you back
Back to drinkin in no time
It just dont make no sense to me
To play a game youll never win
You asked me here for my advice
You say she wouldnt break you twice
Friend youd better think again
Shell have you back
Back to drinkin in no time
Back to walkin on your knees
Boy open up your eyes and see the light
Some things just arent meant to be
I understand how she can get to you
cause shes made more than one man blind
So try and face the cold hard fact
She would gladly have you back
Back to drinkin in no time
So try and face the cold hard fact
She would gladly have you back
Back to drinkin in no time

Prisoners
This song appears on two albums, and was first released on the rocky mountain high album, and has also been released on this is john denver album.
Josie works the counter at the downtown five and dime
Anything at all to help her pass the time
Her mama keeps the baby and grandpa rambles on
About the good times playing in his mind
Its a hard life livin when youre lonely
Its a long night sleepin alone
Its a hard time waitin for tomorrow
Its a long, long way home
Josie spends the evening with the people in the pages
Of the paperback she picked up in the store
Or sometimes its the tv or shell try to write a letter
But they dont come too often anymore
Its a hard life livin when youre lonely
Its a long night sleepin alone
Its a hard time waitin for tomorrow
Its a long, long way home
And I stare at the gray walls before me
And I see her face in the stone
And I try to imagine our baby
And I wish they would let me go home
And I wish they would let me go home
And I wish they would let me go home
Its a hard life livin when youre lonely
And I wish they would let me go home
Its a long night sleepin alone
And I wish they would let me go home
Its a hard time waitin for tomorrow
And I wish they would let me go home
Its a long, long way home
And I wish they would let me go home
Its a long, long way home
And I wish they would let me go home
Bring me and the other boys home
And I wish they would let me go home
Bring me and the other boys home
And I wish they would let me go home
Bring me and the other boys home

Nobody around just stars and the moon
A race against the clock, is there some time?
Just wait for the light, wait for the sign
You made the same mistakes that you made in the past
Didnt help you out, didnt make you last

Hand Me Down
Someday theyll find your small town world on a big town avenue
Gonna make you like the way they talk when theyre talking to you
Gonna make you break out of the shell cause they tell you to
Gonna make you like the way they lie better than the truth
Theyll tell you everything you wanted someone else to say
Theyre gonna break your heart, yeah
[chorus]
From what Ive seen
Youre just a one more hand me down
Cause no ones tried to give you what you need
So lay all your troubles down
I am with you now
Somebody ought to take you in
Try to make you love again
Try to make you like the way they feel
When theyre under your skin
Never once did think theyd lie when theyre holding you
You wonder why they havent called
When they said theyd call you
You start to wonder if youre ever gonna make it by
Youll start to think you were born blind
[chorus]
From what Ive seen
Youre just a one more hand me down
Cause no ones tried to give you what you need
So lay all your troubles down
I am with you now
Im here for the hard times
The straight to your heart times
Whenever it aint easy
You can stand up against me
And maybe rely on me
And cry on me, yeah
Oh no, no, no
Some day theyll open up your world
Shake it down on a drawing board
Do their best to change you
They still cant erase you
[chorus]
From what Ive seen
Youre just a one more hand me down
Cause no ones tried to give you what you need
So lay all your troubles down
I am with you now
Lay them down on me
Oh yeah
Youre just one more hand me down
And all those nots dont give you what you need
So lay all your troubles down...on me

Youre Gonna Break My Heart Again
(coverdale/sykes)
Now I know
Ive seen that look
On your face before
When you realised
All the memories
Walked right out the door...
Now its eye for an eye
A tooth for a tooth
No more hiding behind the truth
Im gonna get exactly
Whats coming to me
Youre gonna break my heart again,
You never let me forget it
Youre gonna break my heart again
But, youre gonna live to regret it
Now you say
I took advantage of you
When you never knew the score
But, you should know
Weve been this way
One thousand times before
You told me once,
You told me twice
Its down to me, girl
To pay the price
But, this times the last time
Thats for sure...
Youre gonna break my heart again,
You never let me forget it
Youre gonna break my heart again
But, youre gonna live to regret it
Yes you are
You talk of how our love
Was meant to be
And all the time
You sacrificed for me...
So how could I forget it,
Why should I regret it
cos when you told me you loved me
I knew it was lies
So no more crying, no more goodbyes,
cos this times the last time
Thats for sure...break my heart...
Now you say
There is no one in the world
Can get the better of you
An you should know
cos you never made it easy
With the pain you put me thru
I told you once
I told you twice
Its down to you, girl
To pay the price
cos this times the last time
Thats for sure...
Youre gonna break my heart again,
You never let me forget it
Youre gonna break my heart again
But, youre gonna live to regret it
I just cant take anymore,
No more, no more, no more...

So here you are again
Standing at my door
You know Id understand
Well thats what friends are for
Whats he done this time
What did he say
To make you so darn mad
That youre running away
Now you say you want to be like me
Independent and free
Chorus:
But if you only knew
What a single girl goes through
The long working days and the lonley nights
The empty I love yous
Oh if you only knew what its like to be alone
Youd put your anger down
Turn around and go back home
My life looks good to you
Im always in control
No one to answer to
But no one there to hold
You see in my eyes you are the lucky one
With loving arms that you can lean upon
Id give anything I could to say
What youre throwing away
Cause (repeat chorus)
I know its hard to face that love aint perfect everyday
But I know a hundred girls who would gladly take your place
So (repeat chorus)
Youd put your anger down

Face To Face
We never talk to one another
We just disagree
Im the one who runs for cover
And you turn your back on me
They say nothings gonna last forever
But some things are worth fighting for
Yeah, well love could bring us back together
But love dont come round here no more
The words unspoken in the night
Locked away in my heart
And Im feeling out of place
But if love is the key
Let it open the door
So well be standing -- face to face
You never want to see me face to face
Think it over
Face to face
If only it could be just face to face
Baby you and me
Face to face
I may be better off without it
I cant go on this way
Time has come to talk about it
This is our judgement day
You know we swore it would last forever
Always felt so sure it would
But its looking like now or never
Time to turn a bad thing into good
The words that echo in the night
Theyre fading away
And theyre gone without a trace
Now its up to you and me
Lets open the door
And meet each other -- face to face
Its time we saw each other face to face
To talk it over
Face to face
You know its gotta be just face to face
Baby you and me
Face to face
We gotta see each other -- face to face
And talk about it
Face to face
Hope it aint too late to meet face to face
Just you and me
(solo)
Face to face
Its time we saw each other face to face
To talk it over
Face to face
You know its gotta be just face to face
Baby you and me
Face to face
We gotta see each other
Face to face
And talk about it
Face to face

Hold me

So proud
Youre on the town youre on your own
Dont walk away dont pass me by and run for home
Hold me

And now its time to go underground
Ive never been alone with you
So hold my hand and lead me through
If you say Ill make room for you
If you do exactly what I tell you to
The saddest face the perfect thing
Its time to face whats happening
Now that youre here
Theres nothing to fear
Just look at me
Look at me
Theres something I cannot resist
Let me tell you what it is
Its when you walk away from me
I promise not to set you free
Dont try to run Im everywhere

Ill walk with you, dont hide away
And leave me here alone

Hand On My Heart
Rescue me
I cant dream this dream any more, my dream oh my dream
Set me free
I keep holdin on but
I dont know what for
All I know
Is that Ive breathed your name for what feels like a lifetime
I cant let go, youre a part of me
And I die each time
I lose a little more of you
And I look for a sign, to give me hope
Well find a love we once knew
And all I know
Is when were face to face when theres no one between us
With one last embrace, well let time heal the pain
Keep your hand on my heart dont let go
I cant see youre too close to me
Dont leave me in the dark, keep your hand on my heart
Oh please, only you, lonely me
Its not enough, to simply talk about love
As if it were in our control
Now as I struggle with the past, I cant think about the future
Its so hard to let go
And all I know
Is I still whisper your name, girl it wont be the last time
As our lives go separate ways
And let time heal the pain
Keep your hand on my heart dont let go
I cant see youre too close to me
Dont leave me in dark, keep your hand on my heart
Oh please, only you, lonely me
Keep your hand on my heart dont let go
I cant see youre too close to me
Dont leave me in dark, keep your hand on my heart
Oh please
Keep your hand on my heart dont let go
I cant see youre too close to me
Dont leave me in dark, keep your hand on my heart

Girl On A Train
Waking on a train, dreaming
Charmed alone, they started speaking
Captured in his artist way
Before the memories fade away
To remember a face
Oooh, and youre home or want to
Certain they would meet soon
Paint a portrait of a family
To remember a face
Oooh, and youre home
Single light on
Single way
Single light away
To remember a face
Oooh, and youre home, the night fell
Saw a painting on the stairwell
To mourn the passing of a daughter dear
Her soul, upon the train, so far, so near
To remember a face
Oooh, and youre home
Single light on
Single way
Single light away
Single light on
Single way
And oooh, and youre home
Just close your eyes and youre home
Just give you time, and youre home
Oooh, and youre home
Oooh, and youre home

Go Home
Her parents said, girl dont leave home
But her heart kept cheering her on
She had a real good man, steady job
But the two of them just werent in her heart
She only wanted to be close to me
To give me the love she knew someday Id need
But I kept saying girl youre wrong, go home
Long days, short nights when youre on the road
For a pretty girl its a heavy load
And even so wholl pay your fare
She said Ill make it on a wing and a prayer
She only wanted to be close to me
To give me the love she knew someday Id need
But I kept saying girl youre wrong, go home
She said Ive on right to tell her how life should be
Especially when the only one she ever cared about in life was me
But she agreed to go along with my final word
As fate would have life come around
My world started tumbling down
I lost my family, my friends and job
And set free the only one who stuck with me from the start
She only wanted to be close to me
To give me the love she knew someday Id need
But I kept saying girl youre wrong, go home
She said Ive on right to tell her how life should be
Especially when the only one she ever cared about in life was me
But she agreed to go along with my final word, my final word
As fate would have life come around
My world started tumbling down
I lost my family, my friends and job
And set free the only one who stuck with me from the start
She only wanted to be close to me
To give me the love she knew someday Id need
But I kept saying girl youre wrong, go home
She only wanted to be close to me
To give me the love she knew someday Id need
But I kept saying girl youre wrong, go home
Go home baby, you better go home right now
Go home, little girl you better go home
(repeat)

I Dont Wanna Face It
Say youre looking for a place to go
Where nobody knows your name
Youre looking for oblivion
With one
Eye on the hall of fame
I dont wanna face it oh no
I dont wanna face it no no no no
Well I can dish it out
But I just cant take it
Say youre looking for some peace and love
Leader of a big old band
You wanna save humanity
But its people that you just cant stand
I dont wanna face it oh no
I dont wanna face it no no no no
Well I can sing for my supper
But I just cant make it
Well now youre lookin for a world of truth
Trying to find a better way
The time has come to see yourself
You always look the other way
I dont wanna face it oh no
I dont wanna face it no no no no
Well I can see the promised land
And I know I can make it!
I dont wanna face it I know
I dont wanna face it oh no
I dont wanna face it oh no
I dont wanna face it
I dont wanna face it
I just cant face it no more
Every time I look in the mirror
I dont see anybody there

Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!
(b.andersson / b.ulvaeus)
Half past twelve, and Im watching the late show
In my flat all alone.
How I hate to spend the evening on my own.
Autumn winds blowing outside the window,
As I look around the room,
And it makes me so depressed to see the gloom.
Theres not a soul out there;
No one to hear my prayer...
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight!
Wont somebody help me chase these shadows away?
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight!
Take me through the darkness till the break of the day.
Movie stars, find the end of the rainbow,
With that fortune to win.
Its so different from the world Im living in.
Tired of t.v., I open the window,
And I gaze into the night,
But theres nothing there to see, no one in sight.
Theres not a soul out there, no one to hear my prayer.
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight!
Wont somebody help me chase the shadows away?
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight!
Take me through the darkness till the break of the day.
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight!
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight!
Theres not a soul out there, no one to hear my prayer.
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight!
Wont somebody help me chase the shadows away?
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight!
Take me through the darkness till the break of the day.
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight!
Wont somebody help me chase the shadows away?
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight!
Take me through the darkness till the break of the day.
Who needs love like that
Who needs love like that
Theres something going on
Something not quite right
Theres something strange
Happening to me
Theres someone at the door
Hear voices in my head
It seems things arent the way
They ought to be
Who needs love like that
Who needs love like that
It seemed so clear before
I held my point of view
I kept my conversation
Never changed
Now its all gone wrong
Words are kind of hard
Nothing else around me
Looks the same
Who needs love like that
Who needs love like that
Love can turn you upside-down
And leave you cold
Its plain to see
Youre losing all control
(losing all control)
Id like to understand
Like to find out why
I cant remember all
The lines that you said
But then I see your face
And nothing really counts
Dont tell me now
This feeling will stay
Who needs love like that
Who needs love like that
Love can turn you upside-down
And leave you cold
Its plain to see
Youre losing all control
(losing all control)
Who needs love like that
Who needs love like that
Love can turn you upside-down
And leave you cold
Its plain to see
Youre losing all control
(losing all control)
Oh lamour
Oh lamour
Broke my heart
Now Im aching for you
Mon amour
Whats a boy in love
Supposed to do
Looking for you
You were looking for me
Always reaching for you
You were too blind to see
Oh love of my heart
Why leave me alone
Im falling apart
No good on my own
Oh lamour
Broke my heart
Now Im aching for you
Mon amour
Whats a boy in love
Supposed to do
Why throw it away
Why walk out on me
I just live for the day
For the way it should be
There once was a time
Had you here by my side
You said I wasnt your kind
Only here for the ride
Oh lamour
Broke my heart
Now Im aching for you
Mon amour
Whats a boy in love
Supposed to do
No emotional ties
You dont remember my name
I lay down and die
Im only to blame
Oh love of my heart
Its up to you now
You tore me apart
I heard inside-out
Oh lamour
Broke my heart
Now Im aching for you
Mon amour
Whats a boy in love
Supposed to do
Oh lamour
Broke my heart
Now Im aching for you
Mon amour
Whats a boy in love
Supposed to do
My heart...so blue
Ive got her picture
Its there on the wall
I cant remember why
I keep it at all
The doors are cold and
All the windows seem grey
I write the book
Theres so much more I should say
Wave goodbye
See my heart...so blue
Wave goodbye
See my heart...so blue
And now its over
I write it all down
No one to notice
One less face in the crowd
Our eyes are open
When it suits us to say
Dear God in heaven
Show no mercy to me
Wave (wave) goodbye
See my heart...so blue
Wave (wave) goodbye
Lost for you
I shed no tears
And theres no reason for shame
A small consolation
Hides a stone with her name
Just a victim
Still the light shines all bright
Ive got her picture
Think Ill hold it tonight
Wave goodbye
See my heart...so blue
Wave goodbye
See my heart...so blue
Wave (wave) goodbye
See my heart...so blue
Wave (wave) goodbye
Lost for you
