Amazing
04:40

I kept the right ones out
And let the wrong ones in
Had an angel of mercy to see me through all my sins
There were times in my life
When I was goin' insane
Tryin' to walk through
The pain
When I lost my grip
And I hit the floor
Yeah, I thought I could leave, but couldn't get out the door
I was so sick and tired
Of livin' a lie
I was wishin' that I would die
It's amazing
With the blink of an eye, you finally see the light
It's amazing
When the moment arrives that you know you'll be alright
It's amazing
And I'm sayin' a prayer for the desperate hearts tonight
That one last shot's permanent vacation
And how high can you fly with broken wings?
Life's a journey, not a destination
And I just can't tell just what tomorrow brings
You have to learn to crawl
Before you learn to walk
But I just couldn't listen to all that righteous talk, oh yeah
I was out on the street,
Just a tryin' to survive
Scratchin' to stay alive
It's amazing
With the blink of an eye, you finally see the light
It's amazing
When the moment arrives that you know you'll be alright
Oh, it's amazing
And I'm sayin' a prayer for the desperate hearts tonight
Desperate hearts, desperate hearts

Ooh Child Things Are Gonna Get Easier
Ooh, Ooh
Ooh Child Things Are Gonna Get Easier
Ooh Ooh
Right Now, Someday
Right Now, Someday
Kiss the Sun Hello, a child in the dark
Make his life a loving thing, I'm so tired, you're so wired
I'm a poet without a poem
And you are my child
What is life?
Did you read about us in a magazine, silent lies
never give you what you need
is there hope for a mother and an elf on speed?
Ooh Child Things Are Gonna Get Easier
Ooh, Ooh
What is love? Child I am here to stand by you
you will find, that you own way hard and true
I'll find mine, cuz I'm growin' with you
Someday Someday we'll put it together and we'll get it all done
Someday when the world is much lighter
Someday Someday, we'll walk in the rays of a beautiful sun
Someday when the world is much brighter
Ooh Child Things Are Gonna Get Easier
Ooh, Ooh
Right now, someday
Right Now, someday

Soldier
03:46

Where did all the people go?
They got scared when the lights went low.
I'll get you through it nice and slow,
When the world's spinning out of control.
Afraid of what they might lose
Might get scraped or they might get bruised.
You could beg them, what's the use?
That's why it's called a moment of truth
I'll get it if you need it,
I'll search if you don't see it,
You're thirsty, I'll be rain,
You get hurt, I'll take your pain.
I know you don't believe it,
But I said it and I still mean it,
When you heard what I told you,
When you get worried I'll be your soldier.
Funny when times get hard,
At the last moment when you're supposed to charge,
Always on the longest yard,
Oh, they feel their feet getting cold.
Hiding here, hiding there,
Find them underneath the stairs,
People hiding everywhere,
Trying to be still like a stone.
I'll get it if you need it,
I'll search if you can't see it,
You're thirsty, I'll be rain,
You get hurt, I'll take your pain.
I know you don't believe it,
But I said it and I still mean it,
When you heard what I told you,
When you get worried I'll be your soldier.
My aim is so true,
I wanna show you,
I'll try forever,
I'm never gonna say "surrender".
I'll get it if you need it,
I'll search if you can't see it,
You're thirsty, I'll be rain,
You get hurt, I'll take your pain.
I know you don't believe it,
But I said it and I still mean it,
When you heard what I told you,
When you get worried I'll be your soldier.
I'll be your soldier
Well I'll be, oh I'll be your soldier
I'll be your soldier

Universal Child

How many mountains must you face before you learn to climb?
I'm gonna give you what it takes, my universal child
I'm gonna try to find a way to keep you safe from harm
I'm gonna be a special place, a shelter from the storm
And I can see you, you're everywhere, your portrait fills the sky
I'm gonna wrap my arms around you, my universal child
And when I look into your eyes, so innocent and pure
I see the shadow of the things that you've had to endure
I see the tracks of every tear that ran right down your face
I see the hurt, I see the pain, I see the human race
And I can feel you, you're everywhere, shining like the sun
I wished to god that kids like you could be like everyone
How many tumbles must it take before you learn to fly?
I'm going to help you spread your wings, my universal child
I'm gonna try to find a way to keep you safe from harm
We're gonna be a special place, a shelter from the storm
I can feel you, you're everywhere, shining like the sun
And I wished to god that kids like you could be like everyone
And I wished to god that kids like you could be like everyone

I've had my share
Of life's ups and downs
But fate's been kind
The downs had been few
I guess you could say
That I've been lucky
And I guess you could say
It's all because of you
If anyone, should ever write, my life story
For whatever reason there might be
You'd be there
Between each line of fame and glory
'Cause your the best thing that ever happened to me
You're the best thing that ever happened to me
Oh there have been times
When times were hard
But always somehow I made it through
'Cause for every moment I've spent hurting you
There was a moment spent
That I spent loving you
If anyone should ever write my life story
For whatever reason there might be
You'd be there, between each line of fame and glory
'Cause your the best thing that ever happened to me
You're the best thing that ever happened to me
You're the best thing
That ever happened me
You're the best thing

When you're weary, feeling small
When tears are in your eyes, I'll dry them all (all)
I'm on your side, oh, when times get rough
And friends just can't be found
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
When you're down and out
When you're on the street
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you (ooo)
I'll take your part, oh, when darkness comes
And pain is all around
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Sail on silver girl
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine
Oh, if you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind

Stoney End
02:31
|
|||
I was born from love
And my poor mother worked the mines
I was raised on the Good Book Jesus
Till I read between the lines
Now I don't believe
I want to see the morning
Going down the Stoney End
I never wanted to go
Down the Stoney End
Mama let me start all over
Cradle me, Mama, cradle me again
I can still remember him
With love light in his eyes
But the light flickered out and parted
As the sun began to rise
Now I don't believe
I want to see the morning
Going down the Stoney End
I never wanted to go
Down the Stoney End
Mama let me start all over
Cradle me, mama, cradle me again
(Cradle me, mama, cradle me again
Mama, cradle me again...)
Never mind the forecast
'Cause the sky has lost control
'Cause the furry and the broken thunders
Come to match my raging soul
Now I don't believe
I want to see the morning
Going down the Stoney End
I never wanted to go
Down the Stoney End
Mama let me start all over
Cradle me, mama, cradle me again
Going down the Stoney End...

Imagine
03:27

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion, too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace
You, you may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you will join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world
You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

Cry Like a Rainstorm
02:39
|
|||
Life isn't easy
Love never lasts
You just carry on
And keep moving fast
I pulled off the highway
And rolled into town
I'm just fancy free babe
And I travel 'round
Sometimes I'm up
Sometimes down
Where can I run to
How have I sinned
When you cry like a rainstorm
And you howl like the wind
And my thoughts are filled with memories
They won't let me be
But if all the stars are shining bright
Well they would not let me see
It's so cold and the rain keeps blowing
It's tearing through the town
But I'm still fancy free darling
And I travel 'round
Sometimes I'm up
Sometimes down
Oh where can I run to
How have I sinned
When you cry like a rainstorm
And you howl like the wind
Sometimes I'm up
Most times down
Oh where can I run to
Tell me how have I sinned
When you cry like a rainstorm
And you howl like the wind
Who can I turn to
Tell me where to begin
When you cry like a rainstorm
And you howl like the wind
When you cry like a rainstorm
And you howl like the wind
