I wasn't mean the wrong way
Won't you do me the right way
Where you gonna be tonight
Coz I won't stay too long

Maybe you're the light for me
When you talk to me it strikes me
Won't somebody help me
Coz I don't feel too strong

Was there something that I said
Was there something that I did
Or the combination I broke that did me have

You know I'm hoping you sing alone
Though it's not your favorite song
Don't wanna be the wind just nothing left to say
You know that someone those spin again
When you do you need a friend
Don't wanna be the wind just nothing left for me
And I hate the thought finally been erased
Baby that's the best of me

Everything's behind you
But the whole place I sit besides you
Living in every moment
Have I wasted all your time

Was there something that I said
Was there something that I did
Or the combination I broke that did me have

You know I'm hoping you sing alone
Though it's not your favorite song
Don't wanna be the wind just nothing left to say
You know that someone those spin again
When you do you need a friend
Don't wanna be the wind just nothing left for me
And I hate the thought finally been erased
Baby that's the best of me
Baby that's the best of me

You know I'm hoping you sing alone
Though it's not your favorite song
Don't wanna be the wind just nothing left to say
You know that someone those spin again
When you do you need a friend
Don't wanna be the wind just nothing left for me
And I hate the thought finally been erased
Baby that's the best of me

I don't believe in any longer bus
It got my motor wrong
For more than tears she cry
Then you know
That it's much to much

So walk from the sky
Let it rain on me
I got this sorrow fall down
So we can wash be clean
And you know
That it was much to much

Not coming back again
No more advice from my so called friends
And I am coming back no more

Driving away
You raise the real bill here
That you fade away
You start to deal this feel
That you know
Babe babe
Come on

I've been down
With the love almost flown
When I got backup
I got nothing to show
Show for you
That it was much to much

I'm not coming back again
No more advice from my so called friends
And I am coming back no more

You fooled me for the last time
I walked away
For you to make up
You might take more staring now
It's telling me out from inside
And you gotta know

I'm not coming back again
No more advice for so call friends
And I'm not coming back any more
I am coming back no more

Babe,I was pouring around
I won't be back to kiss you goodnight
I won't be back and you don't feel right
I should've known you make fool at me
Now I was known to know
I won't be back again
I won't be back.babe,I won't be back
I won't be back
You don't feel right
I should know you make fool at me
Now I was known to know
I won't be back again

. . .


life’s been good i can’t complain so far…
designer clothes expensive caviar
and gated homes to keep the wolves at bay
tinted glass to hide my guilt and shame…

neon signs and vagrants at the door
broken values, needles, liquor stores
won’t somebody help me to believe
help me to deny the things I see

Now whatever comes away
sometimes it's good sometimes it's bad
but I hope this time you make it through

you got the whole world around x2
something tells me not to make a scene
open up your heart and let me in…

you got the whole world around x3
open your heart and let me in

. . .


I woke up early to baby blue eyes from the ? whoah whoah
and when the sun comes through and lights you like the angel you are whoah whoah
I know I do you wrong when I'm with you I've been gone

With every season change, it looks the same ????? whoah whoah
And dont these empty streets skip a beat the flowers dont bloom whoah whoah

I can't believe I missed your birthday again
and I wanna come back but I just dont know when now

And I'm so lonely your not here with me
That's way I'm gonna be on the next plane home

The road that never ends next ends around the bend I see your smile whoah whoah
I'd swim acorss the sea to be with you for a while whoah whoah
cos I'm ???? life ??
now the way that I feel I just dont belong

And I'm so lonely you're not here with me
thats why I'm gonna be on the next plane home
And you're you're the only face I wanna see
thats why Im gonna be on the next plane home

Stand around try to make every moment
and be somebody yeah anybody
it seems the whole world is taking me over
I need somebody to help me get back ??

and I've always been a million miles away
but things are gonna change
I just wanna come home

And you're you're the only face I wanna see
thats why I gonna be on the next plane home
yeah I'm taking the next plane home
Now I'm getting the next plane home
Now I'm taking the next plane home

. . .


I don't get much from hero
I don't give them much thought
I crumble on the crashing
May you still around
I don't like my reflection
I don't like what i see
I'm scared of my shadow
You cast this doubt on me
But am I still the one?
Am I still the one?
Am I still the one?

I was still there in the shadow
Just to understand your pain
But when I need it
Till them rush to left in the other way
I wanted to have comfort
The moment when we have begun
I love you though you love to listen I'm still the one

You call me through the windows
You call them through the floor
You sent these flyers to find me
Now they're kicking down my door
Am I still the one?
Am I still the one?
Am I still the one?

I was still there in the shadow
Just to understand your pain
But when I need it
Till them rush to left in the other way
There's something I've got emptiness all be settled down
I know you wanna me to be with
I'm still the one

So now would you leave angel?
You got me all the wrong

Tell me that you'll never leave me again,
Now you're sorry 'uhuh uh'
Tell me that you'll never leave me again,
Now you're sorry 'uhuh uh oh-huh-yo'
Tell me that you'll never leave me again,
'all these lovers'
Sorry 'oh-huh-yo'
Tell me that you'll never leave me again,
'all these lovers'
Sorry 'oh-huh-yo'
Tell me that you'll never leave me again,
'all these lovers'
Sorry 'oh-huh-yo'
Tell me that you'll never leave me again,
'all these lovers'

They’ve been messing with your mind
Cover up your skin
Lock out all the phony ones dying to get in
The problem with your circumstance
Theres nothing left to do
Maybe failing everyone, you're only failing fools

This intersection gets me lost
Maybe our two paths will finally cross

I don’t know my rights from wrong
I don’t know I’m halfway gone
In negative fashion
You’re all I need to be
You can catch me in the rye
You can be my alibi
Negative fashion
Walk away from me

They don’t need to pat us on the back
They don’t need to feed us what we lack

Reason with your evidence, that plagues you with details
Me and Amy walkin by into oblivion
So leave your excess baggage on the carousel
Me and Amy walkin by into oblivion

This intersection gets me lost
Maybe our two paths will finally cross

Because after all the garbage that we’ve been through
Theres no one else for us to answer to

I don't know my rights from wrong
I know I'm halfway gone
Negative fashion
Something I should be
You can catch me in the rye
You can be my alibi
Negative fashion
Something I should be

They don't need to pat us on the back
They don't need to feed us what we lack
And I don't need this intersection anymore.

. . .


I don't know what I did
But most bein' a fool
I got no excuses
So I wrote this song for you

Whatever the reasons did you come to say goodbye
I'm hoping for one more try
I want to change your mind

So I pick up the pieces
I swallow all my pride
I don't wanna wake up feeling this emptiness inside

Did it spinning around
Did it turn you upside down
I wonder when you found out I'm a waste of your time

So don't give up on me (don't give up on me)
I never meant to steal your smile
I haven't seen it for a while

Don't don't give up on me (don't give up on me)
Just try to understand
I can be your better man

I tell you once just don't give up on me

I tell you once just don't give up on me

And now I feel I'm out of please
I look for you on every stranger's face
I don't think I can do this any more
Don't think I do this any more

And every little things just falls apart
From the very first that day I broke your heart
It only makes me want you more and more
Just like before

Coz you're spinnin' around
And now you turn me upside down
I never meant to be a waste your time

So don't give up on me (don't give up on me)
I never meant to steal your smile
I haven't seen it for a while

Don't don't give up on me (don't give up on me)
Just try to understand
I can be your better man

I tell you once just don't give up on
Me and before
If you're not that alone
What am I supposed to do?

I tell you once just don't give up on me
Baby say you won't give up on me.

Hey there little baby won't you try your rise?
you tell me what I wanna know
you said your talent's ten,baby pushed around
you hitting down to Mexico

Tell me do you still in that same bikini
that you worn in sixty-five
You know that one more of those than other bands
the one that make me feel alive

if your daddy ask where've been you are
what am I supposed to do?
you just tell him the whole world pass me by
I ain't got nothing left to prove

I've been to fly fly fly away
If our love is strong
we would never go wrong
coz that's the place to be
baby bye bye bye baby
if you ever come down
we're still from around
watch the sunset to the sea

has that little black bird sit on the roof
where did my baby go
you said something's life have thrown you off track
the way we ain't got never know

if your daddy ask where've been you are
what am I supposed to say?
you are telling em the whole world's passed me by
could I live my life my own way

I've been to fly fly fly away
If our love is strong
we would never go wrong
coz that's the place to be
baby bye bye bye baby
if you ever come down
we're still from around
watch the sunset to the sea

you've seen the pictures
are we dancing all night long
you dress in that you used to be
long long gown

So baby you fly fly fly away
If our love is strong
we would never go wrong
coz that's the place to be
baby bye bye bye baby
if you ever come down
we're still from around
watch the sunset to the sea
fly fly fly away
If our love is strong
we would never go wrong
coz that's the place to be
baby bye bye bye baby
if you ever come down
we're still from around
watch the sunset to the sea

watch the sunset to the sea

. . .


When your laughter's around
still there right in the face
and you lay on the ground
wonder often to space
it laugh at your bad
it take what they see
but you are good enough for me

I see you run to the moon
and you left us behind
was all just too cruel
or we're just to one kind

I hope you remember
I hope you're clear
that you are good enough for me
yeah you are good enough for me

You are learning how to fly away
my beauty queen from yesterday
and how's it felt to fall from grace
coz I never had the chance to say
that you are good enough good enough for me

If I can go back to the place
There would be time I must understood
even though it's complicated
I can seem to overstate it I think finally
The moment should go
would you kiss me good bye

Wherever you go
I hope you believe
that you are good enough for me
yeah you are good enough for me

I guess I wasn't very strong
I should've told you I was wrong
and i wish i had a second chance
coz I really need to understand

Why you have to fly away
my beauty queen from yesterday
and how's it felt to fall from grace
I never had the chance to say
that you are good enough good enough
for me

. . .


Running late, in my hit at my coffee table
then I run out of gas
I heard the count but ended up in the middle of nowhere
and someone stole all my cash
guess,guess
oh what a tango way by wave
I've got no tricks that left on my sleeves
I've tossed my head into the rain

I've got it bad
you've got it even worse now
let's put our heads together
and reverse the curse

I've dressed up but slip into the muddy water
the stages just ain't going right
bottom vices always need be strict to crisis
that's my so called life.life,life

oh what a tango way by wave
I've got no tricks that left on my sleeves
I've tossed my head to the rain

I've got it bad
you've got it even worse now
let's put our heads together
and reverse the curse

I'm all out of lock
or raising running out of me
I'm all all screwed up
but there's no place I rather be

oh, I've got it bad
you've got it even worse now
baby we put our heads together
and reverse the curse

oh, I've got it good (I've got it good now)
you've even got it better now
baby we put our heads together
and reverse the curse
yes we reverse the curse
so my so called life

. . .


You packed your last two bags.
A taxi's 'round the bend.
You used to laugh out loud,
But you can't remember when.
You lost your lies.
It's like your moving out of time,
And the whole word crumbles right beneath you.

So, I might've made a few mistakes,
But that was back when you would smile,
And we would go everywhere,
But we ain't been there for awhile.
And this I know,
There's a place that we can go-
A place where I can finally let you know.

'Cause I'm the one that loves you lately.
You and me, we got this great thing.
We're the only one's that around,
We're the only one's that around this Babylon.

I hope you find whatever you've been lookin' for.
Just remember where you're from and who you are,
'Cause there's a thousand lights that'll make you feel brand new,
But if you ever lose your way, I'll be right here for you.

'Cause I'm the one that loves you lately.
You and me, we got this great thing.
So, come back and you sit down. Relax.
Everything's to see that you've come a long, long way,
And it's the place that you should be.

'Cause I'm the one that loves you lately.
You and me, we got this great thing.
'Cause I'm the one that loves you lately.
You and me, we got this great thing.
And we're the only one's that around,
We're the only one's that around this Babylon.

Where is the moment when needed the most
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
They tell me your blue skies fade to grey
They tell me your passion's gone away
And I don't need no carryin' on

*You stand in the line just ahead of the law
You're faking a smile with the coffee you go
You tell me your life's been way off line
You're falling to pieces everytime
And I don't need no carryin' on

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
*You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

Well you need a blue sky holiday
The point is they laugh at what you say
And I don't need no carryin' on

You had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
*You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day

(Oh.. Holiday..)

Sometimes the system goes on the brink
And the whole thing turns out wrong
You might not make it back and you know
*That you could be well oh that strong
And I'm not wrong

So where is the passion when you need it the most
Oh you and I
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
*You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
You've seen what you like
And how does it feel for one more time
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

Had a bad day
Had a bad day
