There is too much hatred, there is too much starvation, too much inhumanity

Some people get the kicks out of throwing bricks at me
No real reason, just jealousy
Angry words and bad attitudes is gonna get you nowhere

Watching you watching me, it's alright, 'cos I will make it right

Chorus:
Love has the power, it's strong as a tower you can lean on
Love is a fire, a burning desire, it's so warm (oh)

Some believe in the almighty dollar, some don't believe in nothing at all
There's a power that's within you, it will never never ever let you down

I'm the way, I'm the key to liberty and unity, are you listening

Chorus

One hundred million voices singing (can you hear the voices singing)
No weak, no strong, no right, no wrong - imagine (you gotta keep imagining)
Impossible, the sceptics say,wait and see there's gonna come a day

Chorus

Love has the power, it's strong as a tower you can lean on
Love has the power, it's strong as a tower you can lean on

There's no difference between black or white, the light of life
I can hear the children laughing
Men at war, stop your worries, give peace a chance, there's a new day dawning
Come together, come together, come together
(Wisdom is the mouth of peace, of innocence

. . .


I hear the drums echoing tonight
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
She's coming in, 12:30 flight
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation

I stopped an old man along the way
Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say
Hurry, boy, it's waiting there for you

It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had, ooh-ooh

The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless, longing for some solitary company
I know that I must do what's right
Sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti
I seek to cure what's deep inside
Frightened of this thing that I've become

It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had, ooh-ooh

Hurry, boy, she's waiting there for you

It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa (I bless the rains)
I bless the rains down in Africa (I bless the rains)
I bless the rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa (Ah, gonna take some time)
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had, ooh-ooh

. . .


It's not in the way that you hold me
It's not in the way you say you care
It's not in the way you've been treating my friends
It's not in the way that you stayed till the end
It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you'll do

Hold the line
Love isn't always on time, whoa, whoa, whoa
Hold the line
Love isn't always on time, whoa, whoa, whoa

It's not in the words that you told me, girl
It's not in the way you say you're mine, ooh
It's not in the way that you came back to me
It's not in the way that your love set me free
It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you'll do

Hold the line
Love isn't always on time, whoa, whoa, whoa
Hold the line
Love isn't always on time, whoa, whoa, whoa

It's not in the words that you told me
It's not in the way you say you're mine, ooh
It's not in the way that you came back to me
It's not in the way that your love set me free
It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you'll do

Hold the line
Love isn't always on time, whoa, whoa, whoa
Hold the line
Love isn't always on time
Love isn't always on time

Hold the line
Love isn't always on time
Love isn't always, love isn't always on time
Hold the line
Love isn't always on time
Love isn't always on time
Love isn't always on time
Love isn't always on time, whoa, whoa, whoa

Paint me a picture of two lovers, show me the lovers torn apart

You made me fall in love with you, the dance of lovers takes two
Somehow the music stopped, and so did our love

I tried to put the pieces together, and I got a grip on my life
They say there's one born every minute who has all for a lifetime
What good is a lifetime if I can't be with you

I just wanna hold you, just wanna touch you, just let me love you
When I see your face, my heart cries out for you
I guess that fools never learn how to fall out of love

I do admit I really miss you, there are some things time cannot change
And I would be a liar baby, if I told you I didn't care
'Cos it makes a difference, baby when you're not there

I just wanna hold you, just wanna touch you, just let me love you
When I see your face, my heart, my heart goes crazy baby
It's what's calling your name

I just wanna hold you, just wanna touch you, I just wanna hold you
When I see your face, my heart cries out for you
I guess that fools never learn how to fall out of love

. . .


It's not your situation
I just need contemplation over you
I'm not so systematic
It's just that I'm an addict for your love

I'm not the only one that holds you
I never ever should have told you
You're my only girl
I'm not the only one that holds you
I never ever should have told you
You're my only world

Just think how long I've known you
It's wrong for me to own you, lock and key
It's really not confusing
I'm just the young illusion, can't you see

I'm not the only one that holds you
I never ever should have told you
You're my only girl
I'm not the only one that holds you
I never ever should have told you
You're my only world

Georgy Porgy, pudding pie
Kissed the girls and made them cry
Georgy Porgy, pudding pie
Kissed the girls and made them cry
Georgy Porgy, pudding pie
Kissed the girls and made them cry
Kissed the girls and made them cry
Kissed the girls and made them cry

It's not your situation
I just need contemplation over you
I'm not so systematic
It's just that I'm an addict for your love

I'm not the only one that holds you
I never ever should have told you
You're my only girl
I'm not the only one that holds you
I never ever should have told you
You're my only world

Georgy Porgy, pudding pie
Kissed the girls and made them cry

Kissed the girls and made them cry
Kissed the girls and made them cry

Some people live their dreams
Some people close their eyes
Some people's destiny
Passes by

There are no guarantees
There are no alibis
That's how our love must be
Don't ask why

It take some time
God knows how long
I know that I can forget you

As soon as my heart stops breakin'
Anticipating
As soon as forever is through
I'll be over you

Remembering times gone by
Promises we once made
What are the reasons why
Nothing stays the same

There were the nights
Holding you close
Someday I'll try to forget them

As soon as my heart stops breakin'
Anticipating
As soon as forever is through
I'll be over you

As soon as my heart stops breakin'
Anticipating
Someday I'll be over you

As soon as my heart stops breakin'
Anticipating
Someday I'll be over you

As soon as my heart
Anticipating

. . .


The world is precious, a gift to you and me
I suggest we treat her right, with love and dignity

Everybody's looking for some peace of mind
If you seek the truth then you will surely find
Everybody wants to have global peace
While the press of a button can shake the world to its knees

Chorus:

Can you hear what I'm saying, can you hear what I'm saying

There are those who say might is right, I beg to disagree
I say we all unite and redirect our destiny

Everybody's looking for a quick solution
Our lungs are chocking from beathing air polution
I say put down your guns and stop the revolution
I say it's time we make a restitution, yes

Chorus - can you hear me now

Chorus repeats 2x

Can you hear me now, I am calling out to you
(Can you hear me calling out to you, can you hear me calling out to you)

There's so much starvation, so much say untruth
So much prejudice, there's so much liquidation - oh how long, how long

Can you hear what I'm saying

Africa, America, Eurasia, Latin Africa

. . .


All I wanna do when I wake up in the morning is see your eyes
Rosanna, Rosanna
I never thought that a girl like you could ever care for me, Rosanna

All I wanna do in the middle of the evening is hold you tight
Rosanna, Rosanna
I didn't know you were looking for more than I could ever be

Not quite a year since you went away, Rosanna, yeah
Now she's gone and I have to say

Meet you all the way
Meet you all the way, Rosanna, yeah
Meet you all the way
Meet you all the way, Rosanna, yeah

I can see your face still shining through the window on the other side
Rosanna, Rosanna
I didn't know that a girl like you could make me feel so sad, Rosanna

All I wanna tell you is now you'll never ever have to compromise
Rosanna, Rosanna
I never thought that losing you could ever hurt so bad

Not quite a year since she went away, Rosanna, yeah
Now she's gone and I have to say

Meet you all the way
Meet you all the way, Rosanna, yeah
Meet you all the way
Meet you all the way, Rosanna, yeah

Not quite a year since she went away
Who is it? Rosanna
Now she's gone and I have to say

Meet you all the way
Meet you all the way, Rosanna, yeah
Meet you all the way
Meet you all the way, Rosanna, yeah

Meet you all the way, Rosanna
Meet you all the way, Rosanna

. . .


If I had another chance tonight
I'd try to tell you that the things we had were right
Time can't erase the love we shared
But it gives me time to realize just how much you cared

Now you're gone, I'm really not the same
I guess I have myself to blame
Time can't erase the things we said
But it gives me time to realize that you're the one instead

You know I won't hold you back now
The love we had just can't be found
You know I can't hold you back now

Now that I'm alone it gives me time
To think about the years that you were mine
Time can't erase the love we shared
But it gives me time to realize just how much you cared

You know I won't hold you back now
The love we had just can't be found
(Listen to me baby)
You know I can't hold you back now

You know I won't hold you back now
The love we had just can't be found
You know I can't hold you back now
The love we had just can't be found

. . .


Reflections in my mind
Thoughts I can't define
My heart is racing and the night goes on

I can almost hear a laugh
Coming from your photograph
Funny how a look can share a thousand meanings

Well-intended lies
Contemplating alibis
Is it really you or is it me I'm blaming

A distant memory
Flashes over me
Even though you're gone I feel you deep inside

Dance beneath the light with that look in your eyes

I can't stop loving you
Time passes quickly and chances are few
I won't stop 'til I'm through loving you, girl

There's a window in the heart
I've tried to look through from the start
You're never really sure what someone else is thinking

Someone's broken something new
Another altered point of view
Just a certain someone's conscience playing

I held it in my hand
I did not understand
What lives inside the wind that cries her name

Tried to catch a shooting star
What seems so close can't be that far
I'm living in a dream that's never ending

Dance beneath the light with that look in your eyes

I can't stop loving you
Time passes quickly and chances are few
I won't stop 'til I'm through loving you, girl

Oh, dancin' with that look that's in your eyes

I can't stop loving you
Time passes quickly and chances are few
I won't stop 'til I'm through loving you, girl

I can't stop loving you
Time passes quickly and chances are few
I won't stop 'til I'm through loving you
Loving you

. . .


99
I've been waiting so long
Oh, 99, where did we go wrong?
Oh, 99
(I) I love you

99
I keep breaking your heart
Oh, 99, how can we be apart?
Oh, 99
(I) I love you-ou-ou

I never thought it would happen
I feel quite the same
I don't want to hurt you anymore
I never knew it would work out
No one to blame
You know I love you, 99

99
You keep holding my hand
Oh, 99, they don't know who I am
Oh, 99
(I) I love you

I never thought it would happen
I feel quite the same
I don't want to hurt you anymore
I never knew it would work out
No one to blame
You know I love you, 99

99 (Whoo)
I can't take it no more
Oh, 99, oh, we were so sure
Oh, 99
(I) I love you

99 (Whoo)

I love you

99
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
I love you

. . .


Oh, yeah
Side by side
I'll be yours forever
Yes I will
Rain or shine
Any kind of weather
Any kind

There isn't anything
I wouldn't do for you
Let's take what's getting old
And make it new

Oh, eye to eye
It's a blinding confrontation
You and I
We're a deadly combination

So don't start mixing
Truth with jealousy
The road we're on is clear
As far as I can see

Pamela
Don't break this heart of mine
Just remember it may not heal this time

Pamela
There is no second chance
For the one who leaves it all behind
Yeah, yeah
I love you, little girl

Black and white
Always go together
Day and night
You're the precious jewel I treasure

Wanting every part of you
Is not a crime
Could it be that you're the one
Who's wrong this time

Pamela
Don't break this heart of mine
Just remember it may not heal this time

Pamela
There is no second second chance
For the one who leaves it all behind
Leave all

Oh, Pamela, oh
Thousands of miles away
But always in my heart

Pamela
So don't break this heart of mine
Just remember it may not heal this time

Pamela
There is no second chance
For the one who leaves it all behind

Pamela
Don't break this heart of mine
Just remember it may not heal this time

Pamela
There is no second chance
For the one who leaves it all
Leave all behind
Leave all behind

I still love you, little girl
I still love you
And you know it, little Pamela
I still love you, yes I do
And you know it, little Pamela
Come on
Oh, little Pamela

. . .


I never felt like this with someone,
I never knew I could feel this way at all
Predestination by appointment,
Storybook realities are coming true
I was scared, you looked so helpless,
Lust was dressed in good disguise

I took you on to meet my mother
Just like me, she fell straight in love with you
You took me to your own apartment,
was it me or does the night do things to you
You read from Venus and Adonis, so honey how could I resist!

C'mon baby we've got tonight
No one loses when two tigers fights
I lift you up, never let you down
I'll be the jester and you'll be the crown
We're instinctively impulsive, we're animal!

A body like yours should be arrested,
Honey I should be locked up in a cage
We are flesh, we are carnal, we are human
We've got desires we can't contain
Smoke alarm is going off again,
I guess I'm gonna have to cool you down

Say c'mom baby, we've got tonight,
No one loses when two tigers fight
You'll be fire, I'll be the ice,
so come on baby melt me ooh so nice
Instinctively impulsive, we're animal!

Some girls may turn my head,
but only you, baby, turn me on
When we touch it's so explosive,
it's seems my life's been leading to this! YEA!

Say c'mon baby, we've got tonight,
no one loses when to tigers fight
You'll be fire, I'll be the ice,
so come on baby melt me ooh so nice
Is it venom, is it magic? we're animal!

Ohhhhhh! We're Animaaaal!!
