Friends I have to tell you
They sent me on a mission
down to earth
to watch and to observe life
And gather information 'bout
your birth

But what I mostly see is misery
And it makes me sad

So capable of love yet,
too scared to open up and
Just wanna be accepted,
but can't show that you care
Creating problems daily,
no wonder some go crazy
So special and so gifted
but most don't know, it's there

Friends I have to ask you
Surrounded by the beauty
of this place
Why do you make it so hard
For all the things you want
to come your way

Well I don't think you see
your destiny
And it makes me sad

So capable of love yet,
too scared to open up and
Just wanna be accepted,
but can't show that you care
Creating problems daily,
no wonder some go crazy
So special and so gifted
but most don't know, it's there

Do it, just let it all out
Express emotion
Say how you're feeling
It's liberating
Nothing can hurt you
You can be happy
But you must believe it
(believe it)

Well I don't think you see
your destiny
And it makes me sad

So capable of love yet,
too scared to open up and
Just wanna be accepted,
but can't show that you care
Creating problems daily,
no wonder some go crazy
So special and so gifted
but most don't know, it's there
So capable of love yet,
too scared to open up and
Just wanna be accepted,
but can't show that you care
Creating problems daily,
no wonder some go crazy
So special and so gifted
but most don't know, it's there

Won't you let me take you
down to earth

Take your aftershave, take your rings
Take your clothes just take all of your things
Move your flash car it's wasting my space
Now take yourself and get outta my place

You think I'm crazy, Well hell I may be
Boy you're not welcome here
But if I'm crazy you made me crazy so
Boy you're not welcome here

Don't like problems, I don't like stress
Don't like to argue like tears even less
Ya' think it's clever to play all these games
Well say goodbye 'cause the rules have just changed

You think I'm crazy, well hell I may be
Boy you're not welcome here
But if I'm crazy, you made me crazy so
Boy you're not welcome here

Ba dom bom bom banna bom [x4]

I've got brains an' a hot body too
I'm not stupid I leave that to you
Don't think you counted on me being strong
Well I'm calling time now you, just run along

Not too perceptive, not too perceptive
Boy I'm not that kind of girl
Go find another, sleep with another
Boy I'm not that kind of girl

You think I'm crazy, well hell I may be
Boy you're not welcome here
But if I'm crazy, you made me crazy so
Boy you're not welcome here

Not too perceptive, not too perceptive
Boy I'm not that kind of girl
Go find another, sleep with another
Boy I'm not that kind of girl

And if I'm crazy, you made me crazy so
Boy you're not welcome here

Maria, salimos esta noche?
- Ay, no se.
Maria, igual encuentras un chico guapo.
- No se...estoy cansada.
¿Sabes que? Que vas a salir y será una gran noche.

Spinning round and I touch the ground
An' I, let go of my mind
Let the music take over my body
An' I start to unwind
Feel the heat as I rock the beat
An' I, see your sexy smile
Intense attraction, bodies like magnets
My, thoughts start to run wild

De arriba nace el amor

I want you to love me
I want you to touch me
I want you to know me
I want you to show me
I want you to love me
I want you to touch me
I want you to know me
I want you to...

Moving forward and arching back
With that, hot look in your eye
Up so close I can feel you touching me
No time to be shy
Head to head no I won't be lead
Well I, I'll put up a fight
Feel the bass, now my pulse is racing
And, I'm flying tonight

De arriba nace el amor

I want you to love me
I want you to touch me
I want you to know me
I want you to show me
I want you to love me
I want you to touch me
I want you to know me
I want you to...

De arriba nace el amor

I want you to love me
I want you to touch me
I want you to know me
I want you to show me
I want you to love me
I want you to touch me
I want you to know me (De arriba nace el amor)
I want you to show me
I want you to love me
I want you to touch me
I want you to know me (De arriba nace el amor)
I want you to...

Do it now
You know who you are
If feel it in your heart
And you're burning and wishing

At first, wait, won't get it on a plate
You're gonna have to work for it harder and harder
And I know 'cause I've been there before
Knocking on the doors with rejection (rejection)
And you'll see 'cause if it's meant to be
Nothing can compare to deserving your dreams

It's amazing, it's amazing
all that you can do
It's amazing, makes my heart sing
Now it's up to you

Patience now, frustration's in the air
And people who don't care
Well it's gonna get you down
And you'll (you'll) fall (fall)
Yes you will hit a wall
But get back on your feet
And you'll be stronger and smarter

And I know 'cause I've been there before
Knocking down the doors won't take "No" for an answer
And you'll see 'cause if it's meant to be
Nothing can compare to deserving your dreams

It's amazing, it's amazing
all that you can do
It's amazing, makes my heart sing
Now it's up to you

Ooo-ooo-ooo
[ electric voice ]

It's amazing, it's amazing
all that you can do
It's amazing, makes my heart sing
Now it's up to you

It's amazing, it's amazing
all that you can do
It's amazing, makes my heart sing
Now it's up to you
Ahh-ahh-ahh

The world's got so dark I need some guidance to see
'cause this pain in my heart is taking everything from me

If it's true that love makes the world go round
Please give some love to me
'cause I'm feeling so alone right now, it's suffocating me

God give me strength, to keep on walking
God give me strength, to keep on, keep on
God give me strength, to keep on walking
God give me strength, to keep on, keep on

The air's got so thick I find it hard to breath
And never before have I felt so desperately in need

I know that I must start listening to the voice inside of me
The truth is that when I speak to you, I hope to speak to me

God give me strength, to keep on walking
God give me strength, to keep on, keep on
God give me strength, to keep on walking
God give me strength, to keep on, keep on

Oooh, oooh, my darling
God is you
God is you

God give me strength, to keep on walking
God give me strength, to keep on, keep on
God give me strength, to keep on walking
God give me strength, to keep on, keep on

God give me strength, to keep on walking
(God, keep on giving me strength)
God give me strength, to keep on, keep on
(God, keep on, keep on giving me strength)
God give me strength, to keep on walking
(God, keep on giving me strength)
God give me strength, to keep on, keep on
(God, keep on, keep on giving me strength) [repeat]

(feat. Vusi Mahlasela)

Go to bed everything's alright
Don't know the whole world's changing
As you sleep through the night
Wake up slowly and it's a different world

Hear the news and the floods begin
Screams so loud but only felt within
Heart is shattered
The pieces can't be found

I feel your pain, I wrote this song for you, for you
You will make it, you will make it through
I promise you, he would want you to

Months go by, still living in a daze
Don't know what you've done
With the last seven days
Soul is numb and life is like a dream

Helping hands but you push them away
How could they understand
Don't wanna share your pain
Afraid to heal, 'cause that would mean goodbye

I feel your pain, I wrote this song for you, for you
You will make it, you will make it through
I promise you, she would want you to

One day sunlight hits a photograph
And it makes you smile
The memories dance around you now
And they make you smile
You're not alone
You'll never be
Just like the stars
They oversee
And they whisper to you
You're still, you're still, you're still, you're still alive

I feel your pain, I wrote this song for you, for you
You will make it, you will make it through
I promise you, they would want you to

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there; I do not sleep
I am a thousand winds that blow
I am the diamond glints on snow
I am the sun on ripened grain
I am the gentle autumn rain
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight
I am the soft stars that shine at night
Do not stand at my grave and cry
I am not there; I did not die

I always knew I would one day be here
But I couldn't be a puppet on a string
I've had my fights often I've been KO'd
But I've got back up no I won't give in

And now I know how it works
If you're too nice, you lose

I'm gonna make it to the top well let me show you
And if I have got to toughen up then that is what I'll do
But don't make me a monster baby you'd be crazy that's for sure
Becoming a bitch is not what I got into music for

Remember back to a bench in Wales
Where two young boys started mocking me
I looked at them thought I'll show you one day
But I didn't fight or stand up for me

And that young girl's learnt the hard way
If you're too nice, you lose

I'm gonna make it to the top well let me show you
And if I have got to toughen up then that is what I'll do
But don't make me a monster baby you'd be crazy that's for sure
Becoming a bitch is not what I got into music for

I'll make it crystal clear
I am not going anywhere
As long as there is music
I'll be here, here

I'm gonna make it to the top well let me show you
And if I have got to toughen up then that is what I'll do
But don't make me a monster baby you'd be crazy that's for sure
Becoming a bitch is not what I got into music for

I'm gonna make it to the top well let me show you
And if I have got to toughen up then that is what I'll do
I've sold you a million baby not just maybe that's for sure
Given the chance I'll show you I can sell a zillion more

If I had one wish, if I had one wish
It would be to be free of this fighting all around
'Cause it's so wrong and it could be so right
In my heart I know we're here to grow
To love, to give, to learn, to live together

And I believe in miracles, open up your eyes

Got a soul, got a mind, got a heart that beats in time
You've got a smile, got a voice, got the gift of love
You've got it good, don't forget how lucky you are
Darling, darling
Use it to connect with everyone

Don't you know we're golden, covered up with mud
One day you'll see the truth that we all share the same blood
Supposed to love thy neighbor, together we should stand
Whatever color, race, or creed, come on and hold my hand

'Cause I don't differentiate, we're all the same to me

Got a soul, got a mind, got a heart that beats in time
You've got a smile, got a voice, got the gift of love
You've got it good, don't forget how lucky you are
Darling, darling
Use it to connect with everyone

And it's getting so serious
Crush my heart in pieces
But I know I'm not alone in wanting peace
No, ooh

And if you feel what I feel, raise your hands with me

Got a soul, got a mind, got a heart that beats in time
You've got a smile, got a voice, got the gift of love
You've got it good, don't forget how lucky you are
Darling (darling), darling (darling)
Use it to connect with everyone
Got a soul, got a mind, got a heart that beats in time
You've got a smile, got a voice, got the gift of love
You've got it good, don't forget how lucky you are
Darling (darling), darling (darling)

Put on your clothes, I know what's underneath
You think you're separate from everyone, but it's just from your Self
Without all the colors in the world, there'd be no picture
We are interwoven more than you'll ever know

So I say

Please stop talking to me I don't agree
How would you like it
Just 'cause the color of my skin's the same no you don't know me
How would you like it
Please stop, stop right there with your hypocrisy
Don't wanna hear it
You don't realize if you take away any one of us
We all fall down now

I wanted to write this a long time ago
But I thought someone would say who are you to speak of this
Well I've got eyes and ears and a heart and I can feel it
And it pains me more than you will ever know

And I say

Please stop talking to me I don't agree
How would you like it
Just 'cause the color of my skin's the same well you don't know me
How would you like it
Please stop, stop right there with your hypocrisy
Don't wanna hear it
You don't realize if you take away any one of us
We all fall down now

So sad, so sad
It's said we wouldn't know love without hate
I'd really rather just have the love
I'm tired of our history repeating enough is enough
Enough is enough
Please stop talking

Please stop talking to me I don't agree
How would you like it
Just 'cause the color of my skin's the same well you don't know me
How would you like it
Oh, shame, shame, shame on you and your profanity
Can't stand to hear it
Don't you realize if you take away any one of us
We all fall down now

In the end life'll go on and on
But I for one am clear we're all brothers and sisters

Storm is brewing in the
air tonight
So many pressures on my mind
Want to escape just
wanna run away
But it's not an option
I have to stay
And so I pray
I wish that all these things
would go away
To disappear if only for a day
Know I can't go but I don't
wanna stay

Can't believe the irony
The thing I wanted is killing me
All the happy smiles I miss
Didn't think it would be like this
And so I pray
I wish that all these things
would go away
To disappear if only for a day
Know I can't go but I don't
wanna stay

Storm is brewing in the
air tonight
So many pressures on my mind
Want to escape just
wanna run away
But it's not an option
I have to stay
And so I pray
I wish that all these things
would go away
To disappear if only for a day
Know I can't go but
I don't wanna stay
To be left alone if only
for a day
I wish that all these things
would go away
(pray to you I hope it will
be alright)
To be someone else
if only for a day
(and over soon, I feel it)
Know I can't go but I don't
wanna stay
(hope that you hear me)

Too much information
Need to calm down, let go
Breath in peace
Worry and anxious feelings
Need to close your eyes, let go
Breathe and release

All of a sudden the people, the talking, the telephone, all fades away
You visit a place in a timeless dimension where all of your fears are at bay

You can fly away
Fly like a bird
Across the sky
Above the clouds so high
Moon and the stars
Light up the sky

Presence fights illusion
It's not all as serious as your mind
Wants you to think it is
Unsure of your future
Need to focus on, what you want
And something will come your way

All of a sudden the negative voices and weaknesses all fade away
You visit a place in a timeless dimension where all of your fears are at bay

You can fly away
Fly like a bird
Across the sky
Above the clouds so high
Moon and the stars
Light up the sky

Sun sets low across the bay
A beautiful light
Closes the day
You can visit anytime
It's always there
Just close your eyes [repeat]

(You know, you know, you know, you know, you know
If you wanna be, home free, just breathe
You know, you know, you know, you know, you know
If you wanna be, home free, just breathe
You know all you need, all you need, all you need, all you need, is to feel connected
You know all you need, all you need, all you need, all you need, is to be connected
Slow down, slow down, what you rushing for)
