I have a picture
Pinned to my wall An image of you and of me and we´re laughing We´re loving it all But look at our life now We're tattered and torn We're fussing and fighting, delighting with tears That we cry until dawn CHORUS (Oh oh) Hold me now (Whoa) Warm my heart Stay with me Let loving start Let loving start You say I'm a dreamer We're two of a kind Both of us searching for some perfect world We know we'll never find So perhaps I should leave here Yeah, go far away But you know that there's nowhere that i'd rather be Than with you here today (Oh oh, oh oh oh) Hold me now (Oh) Warm my heart Stay with me Let loving start Let loving start Oh hold me now (whoa) Warm my heart Stay with me Let loving start Let loving start Whoa oh oh You ask if I love you What can I say You know that I do and that this is just one Of those games that we play So I sing you a new song Please don't cry any more And I'd ask your forgiveness though I don't know just what i'm asking it for (Oh oh oh oh) Hold me now (Whoa) Warm my heart Stay with me Let loving start Let loving start... (repeats til end) |

Wake up in a strange land, one of forty thieves
And I see for the first time just what you believe I go down to the market where I can buy or sell And listen to the chanting and all the lies the wise ones tell They say (chorus) East is east, west is west Two diff'rent colors on the map We say break the line, chew the fat a keep moving out into the gap Beggars in the back street, there for all the world to leave It's you that's begging for attention Well it's all the same to me And I won't ask permission, not from teachers or from kings Cause I can see for myself all the pain that you will bring They say (REPEAT CHORUS) Hey! (East)...(West) (East)...(West) (East)...(West) (East)...(West) (East)...(West) (East)...(West) (REPEAT CHORUS) Can you smell the perfume of a hundred thousand years? Dare you look into the eyes that hide a hundred million tears? And there's no need to be so fightened of all the figures in the night Cause we share the same emotions and no one's wrong and no one's right They say (REPEAT CHORUS x 3) |

I was dancing in heaven, you were keeping time
Then I read your letter, sent shivers down my spine Said our love was over, I was not the one If it lasts forever, forever wouldn't be much fun (chorus) Who can stop the rain? Who can stop the rain from falling? Who can stop this pain that's drowning me? I could hear the sound of laughter I thought that love was in the air I was drowning in that golden age You really seemed to care I'm haunted by a dream, a giant human beings I wait alone for hours Love is never what it seems (REPEAT CHORUS) (REPEAT CHORUS) You always had fantastic plans, that I always knew And now you want to leave me out, so it's raining just for you Those changes that you wanted make you ten feet tall I tried to move those mountains but mountains never move at all (REPEAT CHORUS x 3) Who can stop the rain? (can stop the rain?) Who can stop the rain from falling? (can stop the rain?) Who can stop this pain that's drowning me? |

I'm always treading on dangerous ground
And everything seems to be upside down Are you practicing for judgement day? Or do you really mean those things you say? (chorus) Day after day, night after night There's a panic in this heart of mine Day after day, night after night I'm looking for something that's just too hard to find I'm not the man you wanted me to be He's kept alive inside your fantasy But now the magic me is fading fast Let me remind you of the face behind the mask (REPEAT CHORUS) Can't you see there's just no promised land, doesn't happen that way I hope you'll try and understand there's nothing I can do or say (REPEAT CHORUS x 3) |

You say they've been making plans
Oh your life's not your own-it's out of your hands You can betray your dreams Or trade them in for a life that's easy to lead (or you could) Gather pearls on a coral reef Walk the wall of China Fall in love with me (chorus) You better Follow Your Heart Don't let no-one else do your livin' for you Follow Your Heart And to yourself and no-one else always be true How will you be the one If you dance to the beat of another man's drum How will you feel the sun Knowin' all the time it could've been love (or you could) Sail down the Nile on a royal barge Be a mother or a lover You could go far CHORUS Do you really want to live on dreams Forever thinkin' what could've been Do you really want to play the game Forever lookin' for someone to blame And do you really want to stand in line Keepin' the faith 'til your old 'n tired Do you really want to live on lies Or watch as your life just passes you by (Or you could) Gather pearls on a coral reef Walk the Wall of China Fall in love with me CHORUS ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By M.

Well, you know We all want to change the world. You tell me that it's evolution, Well, you know We all want to change the world. But when you talk about destruction, Don't you know that you can count me out.

(REPEAT CHORUS) You say you'll change a constitution Well, you know We all want to change your head. You tell me it's the institution, Well, you know You better free your mind instead. But if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao, You ain't going to make it with anyone anyhow. (REPEAT CHORUS) |
