Sunflowers
Thank you for forgiving
Hurtful things Ive done as a child
Adolescent or woman
Thank you for embracing a flaxen-haired baby
Although Im aware you had doubts
I guess anybodyd have had doubts
Please be at peace father
Im at peace with you
Bitterness isnt worth cling to
After all the anguish weve all been through
Thank you for the mountains
The lake of the clouds
Im picturing you and me there right now
As the crystal cascades showered down
Strange to feel that proud, strong man
Grip tightly to my hand
Hard to see the life inside
Wane as the days went by
Trying to preserve each word
He murmured in my ear
Watch part of my life disappear
Father, thanks for reaching out and lovingly
Saying that youve always been proud of me
I needed to feel that so desperately
Youre always alive inside of me
Now youre shining like
A sunflower up in the sky
Way up high

Hand Me Down
Whatever I know too much
You wont be anyone
Now tell me what you are thinking of
How could think youd be enough
Its not that youve stayed too long
Its not that youve done something wrong
Its not your fault
But you embarrass yourself
Hand me down
Its better when youre not around
You feel good
And you look like you should
But you will never make us proud
Youve been used by a army of cues
Youve been touched by the lips of a queen
Now weve all made good use of you
But you wont be needed again
So dont you move and let someone else in
Make some room for a new harlequin
Its never enough
So dont disappoint us again
Hand me down
Its better when youre not around
You feel good
And you look like you should
But you wont ever make us proud
Hand me down
Its better when youre not around
You feel good
And you look like you should
But you could never make us proud
Hand me down
So look at you with your worn out shoes
Livin proof evolutions through
Were stuck with you
This revolutions due
Hand me down
Its better when youre not around
You feel good
And you look like you should
But you could never make us proud
Hand me down
Its better when youre not around
You feel good
And you look like you should
But you wont ever make us proud

Father Sun
Strange imaginations, children hide your secrets well
Is it not temptation, makes you kiss and makes you tell?
Theres a traveler on the airwaves, and hes pleading for my heart
Light up all the candles, Im still in the dark
Hurry operator, get redemption on the line
Pull back the curtains, I think I recognize those eyes
If love is so criminal, then my penance due
cause Im still holding onto letters written straight to you
Oh, wont you save me, father sun, father sun
I need to tell you that my life is on the run
And now you know that youre the only one
Oh, please forgive me, father sun, father sun
I swore I needed you in the back of my mind
Laid the beads upon the table, right beside the wine
It seems that we say forever, but forevers just a word
And I will be coming back for you is all I heard
Oh, wont you save me, father sun, father sun
I need to tell you that my life is on the run
And now you know that youre the only one
Oh, please forgive me, father sun, father sun
Please dont forget me, father sun, father sun
I think I hear him whispering
Put your hand in my hand and you wont feel a thing
Oh, wont you save me, father sun, father sun
I need to tell you that my life is on the run
And now you know that youre the only one
Oh, please forgive me, father sun, father sun
Oh wont you save me, father sun, father sun
I need to tell you that my life is on the run
And now you know that youre the only one
Oh wont you save me, father sun, father sun
Oh wont you save me, father sun, father sun

Never Felt So Alive
Written by ricki & kim wilde
Why do I seem to confuse you
Do I lose you
Do I really look so strange
A woman alone is a danger
Is a stranger
She is better off in chains
Oh, how can it be youre happier now
Dont you feel half of you has gone
Sorry to say Ive never felt so together
Ive never felt this strong
Im on my own again
And its never felt so good
(Im on my own)
I dont feel broken hearted
Dont feel that I should
Im on my own again
Hard to believe but I never felt so alive
Why do you want to control me
Try to own me
Like a pet youd like to tame
Dont look at me like Im crazy
Thats just lazy
Cause its you thats got to change
Oh, how can it be youre happier now
Isnt it lonely on your own
Sorry to say my loneliest days have gone
And Ive never felt so at home
Im on my own again
And its never felt so good
(Im on my own)
I dont feel broken hearted
Dont feel that I should
Im on my own again
Hard to believe but I never felt so alive
Im on my own again
After all the years inside
(Im on my own)
Ive destroyed all the things that hurt me
Rediscovered my pride
Im on my own again
Hard to believe but I never felt so alive
Feels so alive
I feel so alive
Im on my own again
And its never felt so good
(Im on my own)
I dont feel broken hearted
Dont feel that I should
Im on my own again
Hard to believe but I never felt so alive
Feels so alive
(Im on my own)
I dont feel broken hearted
Dont feel that I should
Im on my own again

When Youre Not Around
You come into my life
And then you go away
You make me feel like a fool
For wanting you to stay
But Im a busy guy
A lot of things to do
But theres a reason why
Some of them just seem to lose their flavor
I feel like death warmed up
I cant taste the coffee in my cup
I feel so low Im underground
Every time youre not around
And if I didnt feel so high
And if I didnt feel so proud
Then I wouldnt cry
I wouldnt feel so down
When youre not around
You come and fill me up
With ecstasy and pain
And then I run on empty
til I see you again
But Ive got things to do
And places I can go
I guess I cant blame you
If some of them just seem to feel like nowhere
No, I dont feel so great
I cant taste the sandwich on my plate
I try to sing but theres no sound
Every time youre not around
And if I didnt feel so high
And if I didnt feel so proud
Then I wouldnt cry
I wouldnt feel so down
When youre not around

Weird
Isnt it weird. isnt it strange.
Even though were just two strangers on this runaway train
Were both trying to find a place in the sun
Weve lived in the shadows, but doesnt everyone
Isnt it strange how we all feel a little bit weird sometimes
Isnt it hard. standing in the rain.
Youre on the verge of going crazy and your hearts in pain
No one can hear though youre screaming so loud
You feel all alone in a faceless crowd
Isnt it strange how we all get a little bit weird sometimes.
Sitting on the side. waiting for a sign. hoping that my luck will change.
Reaching for a hand that can understand, someone who feels the same.
When you live in a cookie cutter world being different is a sin.
So you dont stand out. and you dont fit in. weird.
Sitting on the side. waiting for a sign. hoping that my luck will change.
Reaching for a hand that can understand, someone who feels the same.
When you live in a cookie cutter world if youre different you cant win.
So you dont stand out and you dont fit in. weird.
Isnt it strange how we all feel a little bit weird
Strange, how we all get a little bit.
Strange, cause were all just a little bit weird sometimes.

On The Outside
You stay at home,
All on your own with nothing but walls to talk to.
You never go anywhere,
You say youve nothing to wear,
So you keep all your troubles inside of you.
Theres something hidden in you,
And you keep it out of view.
You shouldnt feel any guilt,
Or have any doubts,
You gotta let yourself out whilst theres something left of you
Hey baby blue,
Dont hide your troubles inside.
Id sure like to knoe you,
And theres so much to show you on the outside.
Somehow I know that we are goona get by,
So stop acting like a ladfy come and cry like a baby on the outside
Outside
I know that the weather is fine,
Outside
I know were gonna be alright.
Somehow I know that we are goonna survive.
So stop acting like a lady come and cry like a baby on the outside
On the outside
You think youre a freak,
And youre afraid to compete,
In a world that you thinks got it down on you,
Youre a closet queen,
You think its obscene,
To let the people see whats deep inside of you.
I know what youre going through,
But what you are is nothing new,
So dont feel ashamed
cos youre not to blame,
Role up the blinds and let the sun come shining through.
Hey baby blue
Dont hide your troubles inside,
You should be glad in the gay,
Nobody cares anyway on the outside.
Somehow I know that we are gonna get by,
So stop acting like a lady come and cry like a baby on the outside.
Outside
I know that the weather is fine
Outside
I know its gonna be alright.
Somehow I know that we are gonna get by,
So stop acting like a lady come and cry like baby on the outside.
On the outside

Natural Woman
Looking out on the morning rain
I used to feel uninspired
And when I knew I had to face another day
Lord, it made me feel, made me feel so tired
Before the day I met you, life was so unkind
But youre the key to my peace of mind
cause you make me feel
You make feel
You make me feel like
A natural woman
Oh, baby, what youve done to me
Ooh, you make me feel so good inside
And I just want to be close to you
You make me feel so aliive
You make feel
You make me feel like
A natural woman

Family
There's a child inside
A man inside
A woman inside
A sage inside
A mother inside with breasts of love
A father inside with hands of care
A child inside beautifully caressed
A mother inside with the wing of dove
A father inside the flight to share
A child inside with parents blessed
A sage inside with a peaceful face
The peace to bestow in all its grace

A Winters Tale
The winters bitterness is lost
Its the fireside warmth that comforts me
The peace for all my thoughts
The night brings shadows to the street
Its the time for dreams of things to come
To creep inside their lives
Youre concealing every feeling
Can you find me, deep inside you
Let me touch you, let me keep you
Let me know youre there
Youre concealing every feeling
Can you find me, no
Yes deep inside youre a part of me
Every day I need to know Im there, Im there, Im there
[with previous verse sung behind]
The evening fantasy begins
In the sandy lanes that cross the fields
The gentle rain will fall
The morning sweeps away the night
And the dreams of you still haunt my thoughts
Bring meaning to my life
Youre concealing every feeling
Can you find me, deep inside you
Let me touch you, let me keep you
Let me know youre there
Youre concealing every feeling
Can you find me, no
Yes deep inside youre a part of me
Every day I need to know Im there, Im there, Im there
[with previous verse sung behind]
[ad lib to fade]
Can you hold me with your small hand
Prepare much, length and beauty of our tiny lives
Futures brighter now
Our world is everything to me, to know, Im there
Lord! you see the world is brighter than the sky
The sky is shining everywhere in our world
You know you never said in your many times, all in me instead

Some Peace Of Mind
You see me on the street, well you guess Im doing fine
Oh but its fantasy baby, almost all the time
Ive got to get away, by myself
Oh the way its going, soon be needing help
'cause Im just a man, doing the best I can
Dont you understand, I just want some peace of mind
You see me on the stage, doing my job
I learn to do it well, keep on singing the song
But sometimes it gets, so lonely out there
When youre on the road and youre going nowhere
Because Im just a man, oh I aint got no plans
Dont you understand, Im just trying to find some peace of mind
I have to stand in line, baby when Im in queue
I got to do it all, just the same as you
Got my doubts about it, oh but I try
Oh make it work with tears in my eyes
Because Im just a man, only trying to do the best I can
Dont you understand, I want some peace of mind
Oh Im just a man, baby I aint got no plan
Oh dont you understand, got to get some peace of mind
Oh got to get, got to get some peace of mind
Oh got to get, got to get some peace of mind
Got to get, got to get some peace of mind
Got to, got to, got to get, got to get, get some peace of mind
Got to get, got to get, get some peace of mind
Get me some, get me some, get me some, get me some peace of mind
Get me some, get me some, peace of mind
Get me some baby, get me some peace of mind.

Space
I see it inside your eyes,
Feel it in your soul.
A part of you is moving on,
The other half is gone.
I dont know what you want from me,
No, you lock it all inside.
I try to give you everything,
But theres nothing else that I can hide.
Weve been trying so long.
Youve been pushing too hard.
You should say whats wrong and echo whats right.
You need a little space and I need mine.
When you and I all alone, it feels so damn crowded.
The house we share is not a home when youre inside it.
So, now, I go and pack my things, girl,
I must be moving on.
I couldnt stand to face you,
So i, I guess thats why I wrote this song.
Youve been trying so long.
Weve been pushing too hard.
You should say whats wrong and echo whats right.
You need a little space and I need mine.
Oh, oh, oh, weve been trying so long.
Youve been pushing too hard.
You should say whats wrong and echo whats right.
You need a little space and I need mine.
You need a little space and I need mine.

Till We Get The Healing Done
Down those old ancient streets
Down those old ancient roads
Baby there together we must go
Till we get the healing done
Till we get the healing done
Till youre satisfied with your life
Till youre satisfied with your life
Till youre satisfied with your life
And its running right, and its running right
Till you deal with the poison inside
Sometimes youve got to sit down and cry
When you deal with the poison inside
Till we get the healing done
Till we get the healing done
Till you feel the tingle up your spine
Till youre satisfied and youre mine
Till you feel a tingle up your spine
Till we get the healing done
Till we get the healing done
Till you live in the glory of the one
Till you live in the land of the sun
Till you feel like your life has just begun
Till we get the healing done
Till we get the healing done
Till we dwell in the house of the lord
Till you dont have to worry no more
Till you open a brand new world
Till we get the healing done
Till we get the healing done
Till it makes you feel alright
Till youre satisfied with your life
Till you know you live in the light
Till we get the healing done
Oh till we get the healing done
Till you look at the mountains every day
Till you wash all your troubles away
And you live right here in the day
Till we get the healing done
Oh till we get the healing done
Oh till its truth and its beauty and its grace
Till youve finally found your true place
Till you know your original face
Till we get the healing done
Oh child, till we get the healing done
Oh when everythings going right
Till youre satisfied with your life
Till youre living in the light
Till we get the healing done
Oh till we get the healing done
Oh when you feel it, when you feel it in your soul
Baby, and you really know
That you reap just what you sow
When we get the healing done
Oh till we get the healing done
Till you know that its working every time
Till you work it out in your mind
And you know it straight down the line
Till you get the healing done
Oh make no worry till we get the healing done
Oh we gonna go back, back to our favourite place
Oh look at it again
See it all through different eyes
When we get the healing done
Oh when we get the healing done
Oh were living for the grace of the lord
Baby feel so good about it all
Oh give thanks every day
Till we get the healing done
Oh till we get the healing done
Till we get the healing done
Oh baby, baby till we get the healing done
Till we get the healing done
Baby you got to stay
Till we get the healing done
If it takes to the break of day
Till we get the healing done
Till we get the healing done
Till we get the healing done
Till we get the healing done
You got to stay all night long
Till we get the healing done

Youre The One
Evry night, evry day
Youre the one I always dream of
Evry line of your face
Is sketched so plain inside my heart
Youve grown so deep inside of me
Youre everything I feel and see
And youre the one, youre the one I love
All my life, all my love
I can feel when youre beside me
All thats right, all thats wrong
Suddenly becomes so clear
My heart has overtaken me
With feelings you awake in me
And youre the one, youre the one I love
Only you could move me enough to believe in love one more time
All I need to know for tomorrow is that youre mine
Mine for a lifetime
If our friends all around
Find it hard to understand us
You and I understand the other one so very well
And thats what Ive been looking for
So I keep coming back for more
cause youre the one, youre the one I love
Youre the one, youre the one I love

I Need You
Like an eagle soaring through the sky
I can see beyond the borders of our lives
No more fighting, no more taking sides
Now Im standing here with both arms open wide
Talk to me and I wont be a stranger
Close your eyes, and we both feel the same
I need you
Like the air Im breathing
I need you
Youre a part of me inside
Im with you
As long as my hearts beating
And together well survive
Stand beside me, we can work it out
I could use some help, and thats what loves about
Look through my eyes, past the setting sun
I could see a day when we can live as one
Take my hand; let nothing come between us
I will be here for you til the end
I need you
Like the air Im breathing
I need you
Youre a part of me inside
Im with you
As long as my hearts beating
And together well survive
Hear me out; use your heart to listen
Different worlds cant keep us apart
I need you
Like the air Im breathing
I need you
Youre a part of me inside
Im with you
As long as my hearts beating
And together well survive
I need you
Ill be here when you need me
Ill hold you as dear to me as life (as dear to me as life)
I need you
Youve given love a new meaning
Youre a part of me inside

Youre a part of me inside

Never Leave Your Side
I know youre feeling down
Because she broke your heart
Dont think that its the end you just gotta try and start
Over with someone
Someone whos gonna care
Care about the way you feel when no one else is there
But you gotta be patient because
Love takes some time
And you always gotta be on guard cuz true love is so hard to find
Never know who or where how or why
When the woman youve been waiting for is right before your eyes
Chorus
Whenever youre lonely
You can call on me
Cuz I promise to be there until eternity
If the mountains may fall
And the sun refused to shine
Ill be with you through it all
Whenever you hold me
I get a rush inside
You could tell by my touch that I just cant hide
They way I feel about you just feels so right
Baby I will never leave
2nd verse
So open up your eyes
And let your mind free
What youve been searching for is all disguised in me
So dont you be afraid
Cuz I wont let you down
Sweet love and honesty in you I finally found
Ill be your fantasy
Ill be your dreams at night
Dont ever have a doubt cuz the feelings oh so right
To have you here with me feels like youre heaven sent
And since youve been with me Ive been in love ever since
Chorus
Whenever youre lonely
You can call on me
Cuz I promise to be there until eternity
If the mountains may fall
And the sun refused to shine
Ill be with you through it all
Whenever you hold me
I get a rush inside
You could tell by my touch that I just cant hide
They way I feel about you just feels so right
Baby I will never leave your side
Baby...baby...baby...Ill be with you through it all...baby...baby...baby...
Baby I will never leave your side

The Way You Want Me
Wont throw no shade on you
Dont wanna put you through
Those lies you lived before
Girl, I can give you more
Baby take my hand
And try to understand
That Ill be here for you
Just the way you want me to
Feel like youre wasting all of your time
Youre going out of your mind
From all the tears youve been crying
And I know all the things hes putting you through
The cheating no one can prove
You never know what to do, yeah
Just tell me what you feel inside
Dont be consumed by foolish pride
cause I can see with my two eyes
The pain that youve been holding tight
Its time that you begin to feel
The kind of love thats really real, yeah
Girl, let me tell you the deal
[chorus]
Its time for you to decide
What you want from your life
No room for compromise
cause I can give you everything that you need
Open your eyes and youll see
That I can set you free, baby
So come to me with your broken heart
Youll feel the love from the very start
I think its time for you to part
From a man that leaves you in the dark
Youre the type that needs romance
Someone to break you from your trance
Now baby here is your chance

Someday
(branson/mindel)
Theres only one way to go when youre up too high
Youve gotta come down; youve gotta come down
And theres only one way of saying the word goodbye
Youve gotta come down; youve gotta come down
Youve gotta be sure youre not throwing your life away
You know I can say youll regret it someday
But someday, many tears and far away
Theres gonna be something thats gonna make you want to stay
And if someday you should wake and want me near
Ill still be here
Theres only one thing to do when you reach the end
Youve gotta let go; youve gotta let go
And theres only one scene when its all pretend
Youve gotta let go; youve gotta let go
Youve gotta be sure youre not throwing your life away
You know I can say youll regret it someday
And you know that someday, when theres no one sleeping on your mind
Youre gonna wake up and see tomorrow isnt hard to find
And if years dont heal the memories you feel
Ill still be here
Someday
And if someday you should wake and want me near
Ill still be here
Someday
