Thunder Album

Holed up on the tenth floor, listening to the radio
I heard it as the news broke, saw it on a tv-show
(You ought to be delighted)
(You should be excided) Yeah

('Cos you wanna know)what's the word up on the inside?
(You wanna know)was it just another suicide?
(You wanna know)you're always looking for that one dime head line
'Cos it's the only way you know

To hell with any consequence, you're standing out there now
Shoot your bullet from the hip, just watch it all come down
(But you're so short sighted)
(And they're all invited)hey

('Cos you wanna know)who's been living in the fastlane?
(You wanna know)underneath it you're all the same!
(You wanna know)hurting people, it's your full time campaign!

('Cos you wanna know) - every morning it's the same thing
(You wanna know)you get a kick from the silver aim
(You wanna know)if you think we're gonna drown in our sin
Then it's the only way you know

(You ought to be delighted) mmm
(You should be excided)Yeah
(But you're so short sighted)
(And they're all invited)hey
Mmm

('Cos you wanna know)what's the word up on the inside?
(You wanna know)was it just another suicide?
(You wanna know)you're always looking for that one damn head line
'Cos it's the only way you'll know

('Cos you wanna know)who's been living in the fastlane?
(You wanna know)underneath it you're all the same!
(You wanna know)hurting people, it's your full time campaign!
'Cause it's the only way you know

I couldn't sleep last night, listening to the sound in my head
I couldn't fight it, so I thought I'd walk the street instead,
Then it started to rain, and all the guilt and the pain
just for a moment, I felt it washing away
Today was just the same, wondering when the feeling would pass,
I rearranged the room, but it didn't help me shake off the past, oh no

I can still see your face, frozen in time and in space
And I don't know, if I can take any more

'Cos all I ever wanted was you
But in a moment of weakness, I broke it in two
All i ever wanted was you
Just say you love me

I can still see your face, frozen in time and in space (Mmm)
And I don't know (I don't know), if I can take any, any more

'Cos all I ever wanted was you
But in a moment of weakness, I broke it in two
All i ever wanted was you
Just say you love me
All I ever wanted was you
I was jealous and stupid, but what can I do?
'Cos all I ever wanted was you
to say you love me
Just say you love me
Just say you love me

Walk on plastic, kiss my ass, then tell me that it's raining
Don't misplace your other face, the weather could be changing
(Seen on all the bets until the odd's shorter)
(God you threw it on the baby with the bath water now, yeah now)

Man I'm gag, i'ts such a crack, when no one ever listen
Shout it out above the crowd, and dazzle 'em with your vissions
(Hoe it out of the way when the shit starts falling)
So, how does it feel with the fingers pointing now?) yeah now

You did everything you had to do
Just tried to lit the one you needed to
You really did well, didn't you?
But you're giving the game away

Threw a lot of stuff at the wall
It didn't sick there after all
Running out of people you can call
'Cause you're giving the game away

Children freeze celebraties, they love your sense of humor
You can't see that you're about, as welcome as a tumor
(You came a long way, just riding your ego)
(But every one's seeing the things that we know now) yeah now

Work your magic on another fool
I can't believe they believe in you
'Cause in the end you won't see it thru
You're giving the game again


Promise everything beneath the sun
Your only gig is what you're working on
How much longer can you carry on
giving the game away?

(You came a long way, just riding your ego)
(But every one's seeing the things that we know now) yeah now

You did everything you had to do
Just tried to lit the one you needed to
You really did well, didn't you?
But you're giving the game away

Threw a lot of stuff at the wall
It didn't stick there after all
Running out of people you can call
You're giving the game away

Yes, you're giving the game away
Yeah, you're giving the game away
Giving the game away

*****Still not sure on some of these, please edit as you see fit******

Judging by the distance, that's written in your eyes
This is that defining moment, that people realise
It's not communication, it's not that we don't try
We don't want the same thing, the facts are hard to fight

But if this is how it's going to end
And if the rules you want to life by won't bend
Then when you finally find the life you expect
you'll still need a friend

Comprimised solution, still could save the day
But when I move toward the middle, you just turn away
I understand the reasons, but that don't stop the pain
Your path was there before me, but from it you won't stray

'Cause I know that you'll be better off alone
And our love was never written in stone
But when you're out there in the world on your own
you'll still need a friend
you'll still need a friend

We've reached the end, I can't deny it
I know the honeymoon is over now
But no matter where you go
I'm on your side

So if this is how it's going to end
And if the rules you want to life by won't bend
Wehn you finally find the life you expect
You're still gonna need a friend
oh Lord, you're still gonna need a friend

Yes, I understand the reasons baby
Lord knows I do
When you're out there in the world on your own
You'll still need a friend
Gonna need somebody baby, mmm
You'll still need a friend

Sitting on the tarmac getting ready to roll
Didn't sleep a wink the whole night before
Wondering how they get this chunck of metal in the sky
And all I wanna do is pull my shade down and die

I get tired sometimes when it's that kind of game
I've made my bed and I'm lying in it every day
It could be worse, I know it could
But I can't tell you it's bad when it's good
So I say

Rolling the dice, it's the price I pay

Sometimes wish I'd never learned to play that guitar
'Til I turn around and see the size of my car
'Cos if the truth be known I'm not a hit with the girls
And it's murder living up to all the stories they've heard

Just an ordinary guy, with a strange old job
Getting paid to behave, like a juvenille slob, yes I am

No body takes me seriously
Guess that's the way it was meant to be

Like I said
For rolling the dice, it's the price I pay
It's the prize I pay, uh yeah

Never used to worry what the future would bring
But how long can I really keep on doing my thing?
I'll be like an addict trying to quit his stuff, yes I will
But it's sad but it's true, it's a labour of love

Guess I'll have to retire to the south of Spain
Teeing off with the wife I forget about the rain
So when it's slipping away from me
I'll rather be a slave to eternity

Like I said
For rolling the dice, it's the price I pay, yes it is
For rolling the dice, that's the price I pay
It's the price I pay, uh

You tell me there's one thing, tearing down the love that we have
And how you sacrificed something, that you'll never live the dreams that you have
So if I stare at the floor, the same as before
Please forgive me, I can't hear you any more

Something's going on in my head, but I'm not there
like I'm drifting away
And something going on in my heart, but I don't care
I can't face it again, I'm numb with the pain that I feel

I don't know what I did, but I never held you back like you claim
Now that I see, I guess some one's gotta shoulder your blame
And everything that you said, every bitter regreat
Every poison arrow is flying over my head

Well, something's going on in my head, but I'm not there
like I'm drifting away
And something going on in my heart, but I don't care
I can't face it again, I'm numb with the pain that I feel

Numb with pain that I feel

Uh, mmm, yeah

If I stare at the floor, the same as before
Please forgive me, I can't listen anymore

Well, something's going on in my head, but I'm not there
like I'm drifting away
And something going on in my heart, but I don't care
I'm numb with the pain that I feel

(Something's going on in my head) Numb with the pain I feel
(something going on in my heart, but I don't care) Numb with the pain I feel

Hey…do it now…yeah hey

Yeah, once I was a boogie singer…playin' in a rock & roll band
I never had no problems, yeah…burnin' down the one night stands
And everything around me, yeah…got to start to feelin' so low
And I decided quickly (yes, I did)…to disco down and check out the show

Yeah, they were dancin' and singin' and movin' to the groovin'
And just when it hit me somebody turned around and shouted

Play that funky music white boy
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music white boy
Lay down that boogie and play that funky music till you die…
till you die…

At first it wasn't easy…changin' rock & roll and minds
And things were getting shaky…I thought I'd have to leave it behind
Oh, but now its so much better (It's so much better)…I'm funkin out in ev-er-y way
But-I'll never lose that feelin' (No I won't)…Of how I learned my lesson that day

When they were dancin' and singin' and movin' to the groovin'
And just when it hit me somebody turned around and shouted

Play that funky music white boy
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music white boy
Lay down that boogie and play that funky music till you die…
Till you die…oh, till you die

They shouted (Play that funky music)
Play that funky music
(Play that funky music) Hmm got to keep on playing funky music
(play that funky music) Play that funky music
Lay down the boogie and play that funky music till you die
Till you die, Lord till you die

They shouted (Play that funky music)
Play that funky music
(Play that funky music) Hmm got to keep on playing funky music
(play that funky music) Play that funky music
Lay down the boogie and play that funky music till you die
Till you die, Lord till you die

I look in the mirror, I stand one eighty five
I'm glad I'm not too short, I'm glad that I'm alive
There's sometimes on a bad day, I got no self esteem
Especially when I see those shiny color magazines

Lord, you know I can see the picture now
Of the transformation they could do for me
If I was dumb enough I'd pick up that phone
And get in line, and they could stretch my sallow skin until it shines

Desire and envy, welling up in your heart
You wanna take a hammer to your next door neighbours car
So you dream of the good life, and how the fantasy burns
Makes you gamble on the tv, but you'll never ever learn

One in a million is better odds than you've got
But you still believe that this could be the one
Why don't you just relax and try to concieve the perfect plan
Or you can rub your lucky charm until it shines
Until it shines

You spent your heart and money on a house of cards
Not knowing which way the wind will blow
Invested all your loveing on a crazy whim
And there's no telling where she'll go

So you spend your time dreaming, thinking how it used to be
'Til you come to know the meaning of regreat
You've convinced yourself that everything's going how it ought to be, in your head
You're polishing the dirt until it shines
Lord until it shines, oh
Until it shines
Lord until it shines, oh

All that we're praying for, it ain't always what we find
So all of us sit waiting for the sun until it shines

You spend the night, just wasting your time away
waiting for a friend that didn't show
You wonder why you never tell them how you feel
All those freaky people that you know

Your mother calls to ask how it went today
Are you well and did you eat enough?
But what she really wants to know is something else
When will you settle down, and all that stuff
Enough!
It's time to get tough! Mmmm, uh

The girl you want is flirting with the competition
Then she tells you that she's in love
So you decide to tell her, he's the other way
To get your chances just a little shove
Shove! Mmm
It's time to get tough, uh

It's time to get tough
It's time to get tough
It's time to get tough
It's time to get tough, tough, tough
It's time to get tough, tough

When it all comes down
It's just another day

You know when you got the feeling, like you're running and standing still
Everybody's overtaking, and you can't get up that hill
Sun comes 'round too early, and the moon goes down too fast
While you're trying to make ends meet, The time is slipping past
I know you can't control the things that get you down
But it ain't all bad news, take a look around

Another day of freedom, another of life
Another little battle you'll survive
'Cause any way you cut it
there's still a lot to love in this world

('Cause we all go thru it)and when it all comes down it's another day
(There ain't nothing to it)we're gonna find you a way

Breaking down in the sunshine, and running home thru the rain
Failing in love the first time, feeling passion, feeling pain
Winning against a tall one, losing it on the cert
Drinking yourself to oblivion, and you know it's gonna hurt

The things you feel, they let you know that you're alive
So don't lock yourself away, celebrate your life

Another revolution, another point of view
You're doing things you thought you'd never do
What ever way you slice it, there's still a lot to love in this world

('Cause we all go thru it)and when it all comes down there's another day
(There ain't nothing to it)we're gonna find you a way

Another day of freedom, another you lie
Another little battle you survive
'Cause any way you cut it
there's still a lot to love in this world

('Cause we all go thru it)and when it all comes down there's another day
(There ain't nothing to it)you're gonna find your way
('Cause we all go thru it)and when it all comes down there's another day
(There ain't nothing to it) you're gonna find your way

Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na

Looking daggers at the sun
Counting each moment, that drags on and on
Praying for the night to come
Waiting just to see, if it's gonna be

It could be tonight
It could be tonight
If the stars all align, at the right place in time
Then it could be tonight

Laying my feelings open wide
It's never been easy, they've always been denied
But there's something in your eyes
And it's reaching out to me, I can't wait to see, yeah

It could be tonight
It could be tonight
I've been waiting so long, and if I don't get it wrong
Then it could be tonight
Mmm, oh

I guess you wouldn't need to read my mind
to know the way I feel inside
Baby, I know it's your decision
So make it right
Oh, make it right

It could be tonight
It could be tonight
If the stars all align, at the right place in time
It could be tonight, oh yeah
I've been waiting so long, and if I don't get it wrong
Then it could be tonight, mmm
Baby in the morning

Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Then it could be tonight
The stars all align
Oh it could be tonight, oh baby
Oh it could be tonight baby
Baby in the morning

Welcome to the party, there's a new kid in town
Looking like a million, gonna bring your burden down
And he's talking about love, stamping out hate
He's gonna fight for the welfare state
He's got a vision of a better day
Rip up the past and throw it all away

Welcome to the party, there's a feeling in the air
Can't you feel the vibrations, bringing everybody here
We got the right face at the right time
Leading from the front, racing for the line
This train's a rolling so get on board
C'mon everybody, you know that you'll be heard

Oh oh, there ain't no better place to go
And all the doors are open wide
So come on in, don't you worry about a thing
You can't fight against this tide
Say welcome to the party tonight

Welcome to the party, where the future's looking bright
See the people comming from the left and from the right
'Cause everybody knows there's got to be a change
So many things we've got to re-arrange
We've got to bring a sense of freedom back
for everybody, yellow white or black

Oh oh, we'll be watching the fat cats roll
when all of the dogs have had their day
Can't you see, tomorrow's down to you and me
So don't you hang around outside
Say welcome to the party tonight

You're gonna love the show, I know
So won't you step right up today, yeah yeah

Welcome to the party, there's a new kid in town
Looking like a million, gonna bring your burden down
And he's talking about love, stamping out hate
He's gonna fight for the welfare state
He's got a vision of a better day
Rip up the past and throw it all away

Oh oh, there ain't no better place to go
And all the doors are open wide
So come on in, don't you worry about a thing
You can't fight against this tide
Say welcome to the party tonight

So don't you hang around outside
Say welcome to the party tonight
(come on in!)

Tell me why you have to be watching me nearly all the time
'Cause even when I look in the mirror now, I see you standing behind
That's right, that's right had enough of accusations and fights
Got me wound up tight so don't wait up for me on Saturday night, yeah

I don't know why you're feeling the way you are, but something made you change
I tried to re-assure you so many times, but now I'm tired of the game

That's right, that's right keep telling me I have, then I might
You can say what you like just don't wait up for me on Saturday night

You keep on saying you've lost your faith in me
Keep on telling me where I'm s'posed to be
But now I've got to the point where I just don't care

Every time I pick up the telephone, I hear you there on the party line
You ask me if I'm sleeping with all your friends, but they ain't no friends of mine
That's right, that's right had enough of accusations and fights
Got me wound up tight so don't wait up for me on Saturday night, listen honey

You keep on saying you've lost your faith in me
Keep on telling me where I'm s'posed to be
But now I've got to the point where I just don't care
Yeah yeah

Don't wait up, 'cause I won't be home baby
Don't wait up, 'cause I won't be home
Don't wait up Saturday night, mmm
I won't be home,
I won't be home,

I feel the wind blow on the corner
And I'm looking down along this dead end street
All the people are getting older
But they don't give a damn their lives are incomplete

It don't look no better than it did before
And I know what's happening behind each door

If I don't get out today, I'm gonna waste my life away
And that's a part that I can't play

I don't wanna spend my whole life in this town, I can feel it driving me away
Baby you and me were meant for higher ground, we've got to steal away

As a young boy I didn't fit in,
and I knew it then I wouldn't be the same
But that was only in the beginning
And as the time rolled on deeper grew the pain

So give me one good reason why I should stay
I think I've got enough money for the late night train

There's a world you've never seen, but I've been there in my dreams
It's calling out to me

I don't wanna spend my whole life in this town, I can feel it driving me away
Baby you and me were meant for higher ground, we've got to steal away

(Solo)

If I don't get out today, I'm gonna waste my life away
I'm gonna waste my life away, and that's a part that I can't play

I don't wanna spend my whole life in this town, I can feel it driving me away
Baby you and me were meant for higher ground, we've got to steal away

I don't wanna spend my whole life in this town, I can feel it driving me away
Baby you and me were meant for higher ground, we've got to steal away

You and me baby, we've got to steal away, turn it on, turn it on

Mama, tell your children not to go
Down to the city, where the
desperate people go
And mama, don't let them stray
They won't find, peace of mind, in
such a lonely place
Wannabes and losers, all trying to get
a break
They don't give a damn, they'll do
whatever it takes
If they climb the ladder, they get to
play for higher stakes
That's why there's low life in high
places

Mama, things have changed since
you were young
When you scream, in the dead of
night
Now no one ever comes
And a poor man, he's cast as the
villan and a thief
See him down on the street, begging
for enough to eat

Waiting on the corner, I saw her
waiting for the man
When the limo pulled up I saw what
was changing hands
I should've tried to warn her, and
make her understand
There is low life in high places

There is low life, like you never even
knew
There is low life, and it lives in me and
you
But we don't all let it through

Don't let 'em go, you've got to have
some pity
Don't you let 'em go
You've got to keep 'em away, from
the big bad city

(SOLO)

Waiting on the corner, I saw her
waiting for the man
When the limo pulled up I saw what
was changing hands
I should've tried to warn her, and
make her understand

Mama, tell your children not to go
Down to the city, where the
desperate people go
And mama, don't you let them stray
They won't find, peace of mind in
such a lonely place

I was running late for a night
downtown
Me and the boys gonna tie one down
So I took a short cut through an
alleyway
And this sound just took my breath
away

There she stood with just one guitar
Looking much too good to be in this
bar
I tried to leave but my feet were
lead
And the song she played just filled
my head

'Cos when she sang out that melody,
I heard a sound like a backstreet
symphony
My senses sung my head was spun,
as I walked through the door
I gotta hear some more

So I watched the show in a state of
trance
Staying 'til the end waiting for a
chance
To meet with her and make her mine
And keep her there 'til the end of
time

When she unfolded that melody, I
heard a sound like a backstreet
symphony
My destiny had guided me through
the bar room door
I got to hear some more, I wanna
hear some more

(Solo)

'Cos when she sang out that melody,
I heard a sound like a backstreet
symphony
My destiny had guided me through
the bar room door, through the door
I gotta hear some more, I got to got
to got to got to hear some more
Backstreet love...

Should you ever change your mind
About leaving everything we had behind
It don't matter, for whatever length of time
I'll be waiting

Things are always gonna change
Every day is like another unread page
So if you ever feel the gypsy in you age
I'll be waiting

Cos I'm sure one day, that you're gonna find
That there's an answer to the questions in your mind
And when you realise that the answer's inside
I'll be waiting

So don't you cry now,don't be sad
Just keep the memory of the good times that we had
You might discover,going back aint all that bad
I'll be waiting, I'll be waiting forever

Cos I'm sure one day, that you're gonna find
That there's an answer to the questions in your mind
And when you realise that the answer's are there inside
I'll be waiting, I'll be waiting

Should you ever change your mind
About leaving everything we had behind
It don't matter, any place or any time
I'll be waiting
Mmm I'll Be waiting
I'll be waiting
I'll be waiting

Laying down in this Spanish bar, that last slammer hit me like a car
I've got the 6 a.m. Balearic blues, can't even focus on my own tattoos
I had a fight with this German guy, I saw him give my little girl the eye
While he was trying hard to be so cool, I hit him with a stool

Oh yes, alright, I'll be going all night
Gonna drink 'til they take me away, I'm an Englishman on holiday

Every year I get to do the same, I meet the boys and get on the plane
We like to sing and shout out "here we go"
'Cos they're the only words that we all know
We've got the loudest shirts you've ever seen
We're gonna take the beaches like a team
We've got so much duty free to drink, enough to float a ship

Oh yeah alright, I'll be going all night
So light the paper, get out of the way, I'm an Englishman on holiday

We never look for trouble at the start, but it always comes our way
We've got our pride and we just can't walk away

(Solo)

This morning I woke up inside a cell
They dragged me screaming out of my hotel
I don't remember what it was I did
But I've got this drummer banging in my head
I've got to get out 'fore I miss the plane, next summer I'll be back again
I'll be fighting for the Union Jack, if they let me back

Oh yes, alright, I'll be going all night
Gonna drink 'til they take me away, I'm an Englishman on holiday...

I see you walking by, you've got
that faraway look in your eye
It was only yesterday, like a cheap
suit you were all over me
I should know better by now my
friend, just what I mean to you
You've been running in and out of
my life so long
I don't want nothing to do with you

Chorus:
I don't need your dirty love, I don't
want you touching me
I don't want your dirty love, it's
enough, trying to live with the
memory

Na na na na na na na, na na na na
na na na na

Chew me up, spit me out, you
turned my whole world inside out
There's a name for girls like you
You belong in the gutter, I know that
you do
Baby I've had enough lies to last the
rest of my days on earth
So now you're gonna get what you
deserve

I don't need your dirty love, I don't
want you touching me
I don't want your dirty love, it's
enough

I know there ain't no way I'll stay,
we were gonna break it up some day
And that day is now, baby I'm
getting out
So don't you cry now, sigh now
'Cos you've been living a lie now
when I'm not around

(Solo)

You've been running in and out of
my life so long
There ain't no way I'll stay, no way

chorus

Na na na na na na na, na na na na
na na na na
Na na na na na na na, na na na na
na na na na, I don't need your dirty
love

So get out, I've packed your bags, I
left 'em at the door
So get 'em out, start walkin'...

Once in a while, I drift in time
To a place in my memory, that it still
hurts to find
I was taking on the world with a see-
through smile
But dying on the inside all the while
I was, dying on the inside all the
while

Like a martyr that don't want
sympathy
I locked away my feelings, and
threw away the key
It was gonna take a miracle to pierce
my pride
And you were the tower of strength
to try
When your loving washed right over
me like the tide

And now I believe in love (I believe
in love)
I believe in love (I believe in love)
You're the reason why I can
Cos when I look, at myself, in the
mirror
I see a better man
A better man
Yes its hard finding words that can
say how I feel about you
I don't care if it sounds like another
old cliche
But I can't stand the thought of
living my life without you
For even a day

Oh baby

And now I believe in love (I believe
in love)
Yes I believe in love (I believe in
love)
You're the reason why I can
Cos when I look, at myself, in the
mirror
Oh baby
When I look at myself in the mirror
When I'm looking at myself in the
mirror
I see a better man

I can see the fading sun
Sinking at the edge of town
And it's one more day that's gone
I'm thinking 'bout the past
And the time that slipped away
But I can't change what I've done

Chasing after foolish dreams
I should've let go but I just can't seem to stop
I don't deserve your loving baby
I don't know why you stay

There's a child within the man
And it's keeping me keeping on
Yet you always understand
The future can't be planned
But I'm gonna keep fighting on
While I've still got two strong hands

Maybe I'll change someday
Maybe I'll chase those dreams away
I need you by my side now baby
'cos you're the price that I won't pay

Girl you're the only one to light a fire inside me
You're the only woman that can make me feel this way

I want to stay with you forever
I'll never let you go
Until my dying day

(Solo)

Chasing after foolish dreams
I should've let go but I just can't seem to stop
I don't deserve your loving baby
And I don't know why you stay

Hey baby you're the only one to light a fire inside me
You're the only woman that can make me feel this way

I want to stay with you forever
I'll never let you go
Until my dying day
Until my dying day

I don't deserve your loving baby
I don't know why you stay
I need you by my side now baby
'cos you're the price that I won't pay

I don't deserve your loving baby
I don't know why you stay
I need you by my side now baby
I don't know, I don't know

It was early in the evening, I was
waiting for a train
I was thinking to myself as I watched
the pouring rain
I need love, but I don't know where
to get it
Then underneath this big umbrella
she walked in the waiting room
I just had to tell her though it might
have been too soon
I need love and I think I might have
found it

She was some kind of priestess with
a black dress on
With her film star kind of features, she
really turned me on

And if it takes until forever and a day,
I've gotta make that woman mine
If I don't tell her then I'll wish my life
away, she's so fine, she's so fine

I said don't misunderstand me, I didn't
mean to make you blush
But when I got this feeling, I knew I
had to rush
I need love, and you know I want to
give it

I've been waiting for a lifetime for a
woman like you
I know I'm walking on a fine line, but
I've got to see it through

If I should pass away tonight while I'm
asleep
At least I'll know I spoke my mind
I'm being driven by some other force
that won't be denied, she's so fine

(Solo)

She's so fine

I've been waiting for a lifetime for a
woman like you
I know I'm walking on a fine line, but
I've got to see it through, through

She's so fine, she's so fine, she's so
fine
Ooh, I took one look at you baby,
babe it feels so good inside
She's so fine, makes me feel good...

So tired of waiting I walked an empty
land,
I was looking for something to help
me understand,
But bad luck kept turning,
My dreams into sand,

I didn't want pity,
I had my share of friends,
I wanted somebody,
More special than the rest,
I was aching inside,
Like I was approaching the end,

Just about that moment,
The timing was so right,
You appeared like a vision,
Sent down to my life,
I thought I was dreaming,
When I saw you that night,

That's when love walked in through
my door,
That familiar feeling I had once
before,
Love walked in through my door,
And it felt so strange,

It's hard to remember being on my
own,
That kind of loving makes a hard man
lose control,
But I sleep so much better,
Now I'm not alone,

So promise me baby,
You're always gonna stay,
I don't think I could take it,
Seeing you walk away,
You don't need to doubt it,
I remember that day,

That's when love walked in through
my door,
I found just what I wanted,
But I got so much more,
Love walked in through my door,
And it felt so strange,
Like a long lost friend that hadn't
changed,
Giving me hope again,
Love walked in,
Love walked in,
Love,

Just about that moment,
The timing was so right,
You appeared like a vision,
Sent down to my life,
I thought I was dreaming,
When I saw you that night,

That's when love walked in through
my door,
That familiar feeling I had once
before,
Love walked in through my door,

Love walked in through my door,
That familiar feeling I had it once
before,
Love walked in through my door,
And it felt so strange,
Like a long lost friend that hadn't
changed,
Giving me hope again,
Love walked in,
Love walked in,
Love,
Love walked in,
Love walked in.

I should've seen it coming now
Should've known it would happen
this way
If I'd trusted my initial instincts
Then maybe you'd be here today

Cos the more that I gave
The more I could see a change
You only wanted my love
When you thought I might take it
away, I'm afraid

Now I'm drowning in a river of pain
Slowly going down
All I did was love you too much
So now I'll remain
Stranded here forever
Drowning in a river of pain

I don't know when it happened now
Suddenly you'd taken control
One day I was pulling your strings
girl
Then the next you had a grip on my
soul

So I let myself go baby
Cos my heart wouldn't be denied
There was distance in your eyes
And your touch turned fire to ice, no
surprise

That I'm drowning in a river of pain
Here with my regrets
Going round and round in my head
But still I remain
Stranded here forever
Drowning in a river of pain

(SOLO)

Somehow when you saw the other
side of me
Then I lost my mystery

Now I'm drowning in a river of pain
Slowly going down
All I did was love you too much
So now I'll remain
Drowning in a river
Oh I’m drowning
