Shellshock
Thats the way - shellshock
Hold on!its never enough
Its never enough until your heart stops beating
The deeper you get, the sweeter the pain
Dont give up the game until your heart stops beating
You call me on the phone, you left me all alone
All I get from you is shellshock
Another day goes by and all I do is cry
All I get from you is shellshock
Id tell the world and save my soul
But rain falls down and I feel cold
A cold that sleeps within my heart
It tears the earth and sun apart
But thats the way that I can win
A victim of your evil sin
Youve lost the hold youve had on me
By causing the changes that you never see
Hold on! its never enough
Its never enough until your heart stops beating
The deeper you get, the sweeter the pain
Dont give up the game until your heart stops beating
When we walk through open doorways,
Counting time in one or more ways
We cant find our peace of mind
And life becomes a life of crime
And thats the day I call your name
I came to you, I called in vain
You lost the faith within your heart
The fire in your soul from the end to the start
Hold on!its never enough
Its never enough until your heart stops beating
The deeper you get, the sweeter the pain
Dont give up the game until your heart stops beating
Ive been good and Ive been bad
But common sense Ive never had
No matter how I try and try,
I hide the truth behind a lie
But thats the way that I can win
A victim of your evil sin
You lost the faith within your heart
The fire in your soul from the end to the start
Hold on!its never enough
Its never enough until your heart stops beating
The deeper you get, the sweeter the pain
Dont give up the game until your heart stops beating

My Heart Stops
(diane warren)
(recorded by eric carmen)
Arista as1-2264 / 1992
I tell myself
This cant be love
That Im feelin
But if I think that my world
Will be the way that it was
Im dreamin
Why do I feel so high
At the mention of your name
Why do I act so shy
Cant explain, cant explain, cant explain
But darlin
Wo-wo-wo when you go walkin by
My heart stops
My heart stops
I cant explain it
Wo-wo-wo when you look in my eye
My heart stops
My heart stops
Every time youre near
Just thinkin about you
Darlin it just does
Something to me
And when we meet on the street
I feel the flame of love
Burnin through me
I try to play it cool
And never show a sign
But I give myself away
Every time, every time, every time
cause darlin
Wo-wo-wo when you go walkin by
My heart stops
My heart stops
I cant explain it
Wo-wo-wo when you look in my eye
My heart stops
My heart stops
Every time youre near
My heart stops, my heart stops
My heart stops, my heart stops
Oh, whenever youre close to me
Theres a wave of love rushin over me
And I never felt this way
Cant explain, cant explain, cant explain
But darlin
My darlin
Wo-wo-wo when you go walkin by
My heart stops
My heart stops
I cant explain it
Wo-wo-wo when you look in my eye
My heart stops
My heart stops
Every time youre near

Time Seems To Last Forever
Time seems to last forever
When we're together
My heart stops beating
Then yours stops beating
We become motionless
With our arms wrapped around each other
Gazing into each others eyes

Everywhere I Go
I hear your heart beating everywhere
When were apart I can hear you there
I hear your heart beating everywhere
Everywhere I go
People say that I must be in love
The way I forget what were speaking of
The way I stand there smiling straight ahead
And walk away without hearing a word they said
I hear your heart beating everywhere
When were apart I can close my eyes and hear you there
I hear your heart beating everywhere
Everywhere I go
In the middle of the football game
At the beach in the pouring rain
Standing on a hillside staring at the sun
People hurry by the unfortunate one
With the faraway eyes and the mystery smile
Moving my body in a ragamuffin style
I cant sit down when I hear it start
I hear you heart everywhere I go
People say that I must be a fool
Cause when Im near you I cannot be cool
I dont quite make sense when I talk to you
And when you smile I forget everything I knew
I hear your heart beating everywhere
When were apart I can close my eyes and hear you there
I hear your heart beating everywhere
Everywhere I go
Standing in the market where I buy my bread
With a hunger in my belly and a rhythm in my head
Looking all around for something good to eat
Between the butter and the beans and the mops and the meat
Coffee from the mountain, honey from the bee
Nothing tastes as good as you taste to me
Rocking in the aisle to my inside song
People staring at me think I got a walkman on
I hear your heart beating everywhere
I hear your heart
I hear your heart beating everywhere
I hear you heart
Beating everywhere I go

Funny Old Heart
The heart is such a funny thing
So many things can pull its strings
Young at heart we fall in love
And gets broken when they have had enough
The pain when someone’s past away
That really broke my heart that day
To think that someone close has gone
But your heart it keeps beating on
The joy it feels when your babes born
And the life it brings keeps you warm
Your heart its heart beat as one
You love and protect that ray of sun
The sadness you feel when disaster strikes
No matter were in the world those plights
In a heart beat you feel the pain
If there a god this is just insane
Your heart is pounding in your chest
When it’s full of Christmas festiveness
Waiting for that Christmas morn
Wide eyed Children eyes all glazed
Standing there just amazed
That final day will come to you
When your heart stops beating too
Have no fear you will go to rest
And join the spirits of happiness

Heart Like Mine
Night grows cold
I've been lonely so much
Out of reach
Save it only for me
Nothing in life is the same
And the sooner we stop to start
And there's a heart like mine
Somewhere in this world
There's a heart like mine
Beating but left to burn
Maybe you can hide your face forever
God knows it's true
That when you search for someone
There's a heart like mine
There's a heart like mine
To be heard
Souls on fire
Feel her voice in your ear
She goes on
Living only for me
Nothing you say could be wrong
'Cause you give me the lovers sign
And there's a heart like mine
Somewhere in this world
There's a heart like mine
Beating but left to burn
Maybe we can share it all forever
But not 'til we do
I'm gonna search for someone
There's a heart like mine
There's a heart like mine
To be heard
And baby are we waking up together
'Cause God knows it's you
If there is love for someone
And there's a heart like mine
Somewhere in this world
There's a heart like mine
Beating but left to burn
Maybe we can share it all forever
But not 'til we do
I'm gonna search for someone
There's a heart like mine
There's a heart like mine
To be heard
There's a heart like mine
There's a heart like mine

The Song Of The Beating Drums We’re Never Apart
The song of the beating drums we’re never apart
Overfills a dam just like a beating flood
The beating love for a beating heart
The beating song of a beating heart
Play the song of the beating drums
The love lust of the beating blood
Always together never ever apart
The beating song of the drums
Crashing through everything
We’re here for each other
Never ever beating apart
Just like a beating heart
Our beating hearts
The Beating Song OF The Drums
The beating song of the drums
The beating song of a beating heart
The love lust of the beating blood
Overfills a dam just like a beating flood
Crashing through everything
Never ever beating apart
The beating love for a beating heart
Just like a beating heart
Always together never ever apart
We’re here for each other
Our beating hearts
Play the song of the beating drums
The song of the beating drums we’re never apart
Holding On
There are times when you’re feeling down,
and the whole world is making you frown,
times when all hope appears to have gone,
and you no longer have the will to go on.
Teetering on the brink, wanting to end it all,
there seems to be nothing to catch your fall,
take another look; see your friends all around you,
holding true, especially when you’re cold and blue,
bringing you warmth and sunshine on a cloudy day,
along with love and laughter when the sky is grey.
So the summer is not over until the sun stops shining,
the day is not over until the moon comes out of hiding,
I’ll hold on to my faith, always believing,
so I won’t stop, I’ll keep on dreaming,
for all those around me, are forever keeping,
me holding on until my heart stops beating.

Two Old Friends
Preacher went up to the Golden Gate,
And met God there,
With the glow of love in his flowing hair.
I'm dreamin' of a time when love and music,
Is everywhere.
Can you see that time comin'?
No my son that time has gone,
There's things to do.
The world has changed since I first met you.
Back when The Band played Rock of Ages,
In their prime,
And the old juke joint was rockin'...
Oh Lord there's so much hate,
In a world where we're from another place.
Show me how to be like you.
See no evil, hear no evil,
Feel no evil in my heart.
In my heart, in my aching heart.
In my heart, in my heart,
In my old black heart.
In my heart, in my heart,
In my beating heart.
Sky had turned a lotta shades of gray,
As they walked on,
And a gentle rain fell down on them.
They found faith in the way things are and,
The way things change,
And they said goodbye like two old friends.
Take me up to the mountains high,
Or a building top where the spirits fly.
Show me how to be like you.
See no evil, feel no evil,
Fear no evil in my heart.
In my heart, in my aching heart.
In my heart, in my heart,
In my old black heart.
In my heart, in my heart,
In my beating heart.
Oh Lord there's so much hate,
In a world where we're from another place.
Show me how to live like you.
See no evil, hear no evil,
Feel no evil in my heart.
In my heart, in my aching heart.
In my heart, in my heart,
In my old black heart.
In my heart, in my heart,
In my beating heart.

Snowfall On The Sahara
Your love like wine
Tasting sweeter to me everyday
Your kiss, divine and it melts the cold inside away
All of my life Ive been waiting for a love like this
And now that youre here, romance is just a second away
Its gonna stay
Till the snowfalls on the sahara and the sun freezes over
Till the mojave red turns into blue
When my lungs get tired of breathing
And my heart stops its beating
Then Ill stop loving you
And if the dark, when theres no one calling out your name
Well Ill hold you so tight
And Ill whisper to you once again and again
When the snowfalls on the sahara and the sun freezes over
When the mojave red turns into blue
When the musics no longer playing and the faithless stop praying
Ill stop loving you
When the snowfalls on the sahara (oh, oh)
And the sun freezes over
When the mojave red turns into blue (thats a long time)
When my lungs get tired of breathing
And my heart stops its beating
Ill stop loving you
I dont wanna miss a single heartbeat
Sometimes my words get in the way
But I hear your love just fine---
Just fine-----
And its gonna take a long time
When the snowfalls on the sahara and the sun freezes over
When the mojave red turns into blue (thats a long time)
When the musics no longer playing and the faithless stop praying
Ill stop loving you

Scream
Scream!
Fell forth, destroy the source
Can't see and my voice is hoarse
Trying to wash your hands off
You should know better than to leave us in disgust
Let me take you right to the point
All you ever do is encage in disjoint
That does it the time has arrived
Take it or leave it you better not side!
You did it again
All you ever did was doubt
What do you want?
Let me tell you what it's all about
One life
Nine hearts
And eighteen hands that'll rip you all apart
We're here to decimate
To show you all we will never fall
It's gonna get serious
And critical
Don't stop because the feeling is terminal!
Scream!
Scream like you never have before!
Scream!
Scream till you cant scream anymore!
Scream!
Scream like your throat is bleeding!
Scream!
Scream till your heart stops beating!
Scream for me!
Get off of me, and get away
Show the whole damn World this will never die
No matter how the energies scatter
Got to know nothing exists but the dream
Give it all
Till there's nothing left to give
Save it all
Quit saving you
If you're going to let the pain inside
Never under estimate the way you live your life
Scream!
Scream like you never have before!
Scream!
Scream till you can't scream anymore!
Scream!
Scream like your throat is bleeding!
Scream!
Scream till your heart stops beating!
Scream for me!
All our lives!
All we ever sacrificed has paid
Everything!
Everything is possible to me
Why no fight?!
Found everything that I had to take away
Save your life!
Save it all and make a better way
Yeah!
This stress, is a feeling that you can't compress
Everything your going through is total stress
Are you going to be a momentary run around
How will you handle their ? of stress?
All our lives!
All we ever sacrificed has paid
Everything!
Everything is possible to me
Why no fight?!
Found everything that I had to take away
Save your life!
Save it all and make a better way!

Mine
O HOW my heart is beating as her name I keep repeating,
And I drink up joy like wine:
O how my heart is beating as her name I keep repeating,
For the lovely girl is mine!
She's rich, she's fair, beyond compare,
Of noble mind, serene and kind--
And how my heart is beating as her name I keep repeating,
For the lovely girl is mine!
O how my heart is beating as her name I keep repeating,
In a music soft and fine;
O how my heart is beating as her name I keep repeating,
For the girl I love is mine.
She owns no lands, has no white hands,
Her lot is poor, her life obscure;--
Yet how my heart is beating as her name I keep repeating,
For the girl I love is mine!

Little Sister
Verse 1:
Hey, little sister
Did that boy make you cry, did he steal your heart away with a look in his eye
Are you feeling like your world is over now
Hey, little sister
Everything will be alright, what you feel is gonna change all your tears will dry
Time has a way of healing hearts that break somehow
Dont give up on love cause this ones let you down
Chorus:
Tonight youve lost lost the only one you want
Seems all youve got all youve got left is yesterday
But time wont stop (uh-uh)
And when all your crying stops tomorrow comes
Verse 2:
Hey, little sister youve gotta trust me (just a part of love)
Soon youll open up your eyes and the sun is gonna shine a light you never seen
Theres so much more to love than what youre feeling now
Someday youll find someone wholl never let you down
Chorus:
Tonight youve lost lost the only one you want
Seems all youve got all youve got left is yesterday (all youve got is yesterday)
But time wont stop (it dont stop)
And when all your crying stops tomorrow comes (tomorrow comes)
Bridge:
Its alright, hey little sister
And you gotta wake up and face up that breaking ups just a part of loving
So his kiss hit you hard it broke your heart but it dont mean nothing
You gotta wake up and face up that breaking ups just a part of loving
The hurt you feel, yes its real, but its gonna heal as a new days coming
Chorus:
Tonight youve lost lost the only one you want (one you want)
Seems all youve got all youve got left is yesterday (yesterday)
But time wont stop (time wont stop) (it wont stop, it wont stop)
And when all your crying stops tomorrow comes (and when all your crying stops)
Come on little sister
Tonight youve lost lost the only one you want (one you want)
Seems all youve got all youve got left is yesterday
But time wont stop
And when all your crying stops tomorrow comes

I'm Lost, I need change
I'm lost in a darkness as dark as the night
but lighter then the stars above
I'm lost in a memory that once were
but now is gone far away
I'm lost in the sadness after the dark
but live my life with laughter
I'm lost in this world, so beautiful it is
but it takes my life from me
I'm lost in myself and so confused
that my heart is broken in two
It's dark, it's light
it's noon, it's night
everything is changing but me
I'm lost in a life so still and slow
that my heart stops beating soon
I'm lost in a town where my heart isn't placed
and without my heart I can't live
I need my life back,
I need to change,
I need to get out of here
I'm lost in this place where i don't belong
And if I stay my breathing will stop
Therefore I go
out into the world
to a place greater then here
There I am lost in a big new world
But my heart will be with me again

Heart
We giving up on all the emptiness
I fill it up with your sweet love beside me.
Ain't no fun to be a rolling stone inside
You buy the feeling and you pay with tears.
For what it matters you flow with the motion
Then out of nowhere there's a full moon rising
And it's mine.
And every
every moment is the history we make - and more
We got a legacy of understanding
I can love you better
But donY let your -
Heart stop beating in time
Don't take me below the danger level.
Caught up in the middle of a misery -
Don't let me die.
And I warn you if you let your
Heart stop beating in time
Don't make it a fatal combination
I won't ever find another your love no more.
Got to get closer
got to be in sight
You make it heaven to breathe with you woman.
Don't you get lonely in the midnight hour like me?
And there's an angel that I follow on the wind - and more
Within a universe of undiscovered eyes
We found each other
so don't let your -
Heart stop beating
in time
Don't take me below the danger level.
Caught up in the middle of a misery.
Oh baby
don't let it be.
Save my soul
I don't wanna be no chains that hold
Gotta be a wild new world out.
There is a plan
I don't wanna be no one night stand
Gonna be alive for you down.
Here is the love I can hold out in my hand
And you can feel it I'm nothing if you let your -
Heart stop beating in time
. . .
Don't let your heart stop beating in time

Lonely Cities Of The Heart
As the midnight fades in boys town
And the hustle stops to glow
This urban landscape sprawls before me
And the hunger starts to grow
But something more than my daddy showed to me
How he wanted to make a man of me
Living in the lonely cities of the heart
Hiding in the shadows and searching in the dark
My mama reads me like an open book
She knows when Im up or down
But every night I stay longer
In the creole part of town
Something more than what the good lord gave to me
Something more, much more than this
Living in the lonely cities of the heart
Hiding in the shadows, searching in the dark
And it never stops, no it never stops, no one defends you now
Living in the lonely cities of the heart
(instrumental)
I can take a little pain, but not tonight again
Outside my hotel window I hear the mardi gras
Keep the candle burning bright babe, Ive come too far
As daylight creeps through the curtains I start to slip away,
And everything that seems so certain is just another day
Living in the lonely cities of the heart
Hiding in the shadows searching in the dark
And it never stops, no it never stops, no one defends you now
Living in the lonely cities of the heart
Hiding in the shadows searching in the dark
And it never stops, no it never stops, no one defends you now
Living in the lonely cities of the heart
Living in the lonely cities of the heart...

Misfit Beatings
I take a beating for my needs!
I kick myself and sit in despair.
I need a love of mine right here,
Not 'there'
Behind someone's closed doors,
Like a whore who disappears
Doing whore chores!
Seeking fresh pieces...
To admire and adore.
Then suddenly reappear?
At my door?
As if that's not clear,
A 'respect' was ignored.
I take a beating for my needs!
I close myself off...
When open I want to be.
I want to unleash this love and release,
But someone I trust must receive...
And be pleased to be with me.
Or I will go on denying,
It's pride I feel from a wounded heart!
And not from a touch I long to feed,
From depths surfacing seeking a fresh start!
Alone I groan...
And take a beating,
For my needs.
I know what I want...
But I'm not getting it with ease,
And that is upsetting.
So much so,
I have been on my knees!
I take a beating for my needs.
But sorrow does not come to share them.
I may take a beating for my needs...
Knowing what I want,
Will be what it is.
When it comes to give fulfillment,
That is complete without self deceit
To relive...
Or surrender!
And come for me with a goodness,
Meant to be.
I take a beating for my needs...
To one day taste the sweetness,
Delivered just for me!
To one day taste the sweetness,
Delivery just for me!
To one day taste the sweetness,
Delivery just for me!
I take a beating for my needs...
And in the meaning of this feeling,
Repeated it will be...
Until I have the will and strength,
To set myself finally free.
I take a beating for my needs.
I know that more and I can see.
I'm not as eager to punish,
Or as quick to accept defeat!
I take a beating for my needs,
I do!
But I do it to clean the slate...
For whoever arrives when that time comes.
To mate.
For whomever that will be,
To help me forget
The foolish things done!
To free myself finally to enjoy fun.
When that one comes and stops my urge,
To end my misfit beatings...
Inflicted with such fits!

Why Keep On Breaking My Heart
why keep on breaking my heart?
when it's beating for you
only you
why do you toy with my dreams
they're depending on you to come true
when you invaded my mind
you took over complete control
then i surrender to you
all my dreams, my heart and soul
please say
there's a chance some day you may feel just the way
that i do
but why keep on breaking my heart
when it's beating for you
only you
why keep on breaking my heart
when it's beating for you
only you

Full stops and commas
Life's full of punctuation if we only stop to see,
like the middle of a rain storm or a lovely cup of tea.
Some are marked as commas, some as asterisks
I bet you've had some commas, take stock and think a bit.
A colon is a long pause for something that I treasure
such as a special friend, although it's hard to measure.
Apostrophe's a hiccup for something that I've missed
and if it's you I'm sorry, for sometimes I'm remiss.
Full stops are very sad for that's when someone dies
and though we know it happens, it startles hearts and minds.
That's when my heart stops beating for just a tick or tock,
I stumble and I falter, a colon stops the clock.
Life's full of punctuation if we only stop to see,
like the pausing of the traffic or the falling of a leaf.
Without some punctuation life's meaning would be less,
you may give this some thought, (in brackets would be best)

Where Tomorrow Is
Shes gone
Im a victim of love
And I reach for her cry
Theres no perception of time
Shes out of my world and Im alone
The city sleeps , she comes and she goes
She loves another one
And I got no chance, no time
Aint nothing stops the rain but the sunshine
I can see nobody , tell me where my angel goes
I say the devil knows
Im lost
No sky above me
No earth below me
Show me where tomorrow is and teach me to see
Someone else may cry for me , could be
Show me where tomorrow is cos I dont know
Show me where tomorrow is cos I dont know
Show me where tomorrow is
Suspicion
The lies on your lips and your tenderness
I lie in wait for the gift of her pain
Shell never be mine and Im all alone
And through a stranger, lives can change
And hearts can overcome
But I need her face , so young
Aint nothing stops the fire and it burns on
Too late now she tells me
We cannot live this lie
She came home to say goodbye
Im lost
No sky above me
No earth below me
Show me where tomorrow is and teach me to see
Someone else may cry for me, could be
Show me where tomorrow is , cos I dont know
Show me , I must go on
Whatever the heart must take
Ill keep my love alive
And all you got is freedom
It aint enough
Im lost
No sky above me
No earth below me
Show me where tomorrow is and teach me to see
Someone else may cry for me , could be
Show me where tomorrow is , cos I dont know
Show me
