Sitting there and feeling lonely
Had my blue eyes for you only Suddenly you turned around and smiled at me It wasn't my imagination Had no doubts no hesitation When it comes to love I know where I wanna be Is it real am I dreaming I've been waiting light years for someone like you Can't believe you are here with me I've got you and I can't hide it anymore I want the world to know that Baby you're mine You are blowing my mind We are two of a kind Baby you're really mine Now I see what I've been missing It's the happiest girl you're kissing Baby only you can make me feel like this |

Oh, if they knew what is really going through her mind
Oh, how she dazzles triumphant, there's no competition... But when not dreaming She thinks her world will fall apart There's no one there to love her And quench this burning passion We, ordinary people Sometimes frightened a little Hiding our secret hopes Want an ordinary love Need someone to hold If they only knew What's going through her mind If they only knew How lonely is her life If only we could see Through other people's eyes We might understand each other's hearts Oh, if they knew, what is really going through his mind He is so helpless, his head in the sand, day-and-nightmares. But the crowd around him believes he has the power To change the world, stop wars and hunger Yet for his dreams no one cares We, ordinary people, Sometimes frightened a little Hiding our secret hopes Want an ordinary love Need someone to hold |

Father I didn't really know you
Mother you are so very far away from me Hopeless birthdays made me cry My heart kept saying: It's all right Obviously that's how it was meant toe Now I know There was a reason for it all And I am not lonely anymore I got my reward That's why I am loved I have you A lover and a friend You are everything I need You are the sun the air I breathe Without you, life wouldn't be the same Please never go away And if you go then don't forget to take me with you The love that I gave was used against me Honesty seemed a foreign and old-fashioned word Maybe I just don't understand 'cause I'm a stranger in this land Even friends failed to make me feel at home Now I know There was a reason for it all...

This is a song about the place I come from It's not on the moon at all Where people's hearts are filled with passion I miss it so, 'cause I'm here chasing love In my land of great romantics I'm the biggest dreamer of them all No way to stop their desire to change And to improve our world One invented Esperanto Ready to move and to try something new I'm convinced that Chopin too Would dig samba if he had a chance to groove Though it's true That I only know very few simple words of your language I've cracked it I've decided Because the only words we need to communicate Are the ones that can help me say "I do love you" And that make me understand you love me too Our love will take this globe by storm If it's London, Warsaw or New York 'Cause all around the world People want to love and be loved Open your eyes There's so much we don't know We don't even realise So you might get a better picture And if I say, that on this planet today We all have the same hearts, I don't claim I'm Curie or Copernicus Nasza miloscia podbijemy glob Londyn, Warszawe albo Nowy Jork Sporjz tylko wsyscy w krag Chca byc kochani i kochac chca |

i was dreaming when i jumped the lights
busy scaling dizzy heights hummed a somewhat strangely familiar tune my eyes as wide as open books and from my ears upon two hooks a big smile was hanging there like a crescent moon it sometimes comes as quite a shock when the gods of love decide to knock you're in a state of disarray just when you least expect it--you'll never know a better day day dreaming fever taking over no misdemeanour--stone cold sober the officer who stopped me said: "lucky you didn't wind up dead!" and he guessed that I was over and above i hoped he'd only caution me, and i made a plea for clemency on the grounds that i was only drunk on love day dreaming fever taking over no misdemeanour--stone cold sober it sometimes comes as quite a shock when the gods of love decide to knock you're in a state of disarray just when you least expect it--you'll never know a better day |

Nobody knows where she came from The tall and tanned young and lovely girl With a voice as light as air Nobody knows but no one cares Cause everybody loves her When she signs makes you dream a fairy tale With a certain smile She can make you feel so nice Saying gently Goodbye sadness Still will break your heart Listen to her once You'll feel lucky she was there One note samba would never be the same Where is she now the lovely girl With the softest voices you ever heard Asking fly me to the moon I know I'll find her in the sun of Copacabana Meditating Her lonely heart is nothing new With a certain smile She can make you feel so nice Saying gently Goodbye sadness Still will break your heart Listen to her once You'll feel lucky she was there One note samba would never be the same Never be the same Listen to her once You'll feel lucky she was there One note samba would never be Nobody knows where she came from The tall and tanned young and lovely girl With a voice as light as air Nobody knows but no one cares Cause everybody loves her When she signs makes you dream a fairy tale |

Your voice that sounded soft and sweet Your manners knocked me off my feet Infatuation made me blind Today I know you are someone else Than the one I keep in my mind So now you think I'm yours And you don't have to try Seems nothing I do is right How dare you talk to me like that If you're not careful I'll get mad How dare you talk to me like that Let this be a warning You made me hope we'd live a dream But now you make me want to scream Poetic style turned into prose This gentleman that once I knew I wonder if it was really you 'Cause now you think I'm yours And you don't have to try Seems nothing I do is right How dare you talk to me like that If you're not careful I'll get mad How dare you talk to me like that Let this be a warning Now you think I'm yours And you don't have to try Seems nothing you do is right How dare you talk to me like that If you're not careful I'll get mad How dare you talk to me like that Let this be a warning How dare you talk to me like that |

I'm sorry darling but I was miles away from here (and didn't listen) But don't worry---I'm with you 'Cause nowhere else I would rather be Couldn't live without you Wouldn't do without you near me I'm so happy where I am But too much of a good thing Never hurt anybody So let's leave this noisy town And move out to tread on enchanted ground I've got to get things ready Don't delay it any longer And find a little house in a valley Where the sun's always smiling A perfect place for you and me Miles away Now you see the reason Why I'm drifting miles away (but now without you) Just imagine a great big world Only waiting for us to discover it I'm getting so impatient Our life could be even better In our little house in a valley Where the sun's always smiling Where we got some more space to breathe Miles away When the world gets too much We'll hide So no one can find us there (says answering machine "Phone again leave your name Don't disturb our little home miles away.") Let's find a little house in a valley Where the sun's always smiling My neighbors are Jeff and Jill Miles away---somewhere Miles away |

I've got a friend who had a schoolboy dream He wanted every luxury that money could bring He fancied himself as a King of the castle Impressing all the ladies with the size of his car But none of them would have it They left the morning after As a giver of love he was a walking disaster Who will ever know of this charade Unless you tell us who you really are How far will you go Down a road that's paved with gold but takes away your soul Come to masquerade Keep your heart out of sight You can be a winner A master of disguise Then one night he met a beautiful girl She was a viable concern, he couldn't help thinking But he ran out of small talk and started to panic The comedy was turning into something tragic Never mix business with pleasure You can play them independently but never together Who will ever know of this charade Unless you tell us who you really are How far will you go Down a road that's paved with gold but takes away your soul Come to masquerade Keep your heart out of sight You can be a winner A master of disguise |

This is a song about the place I come from
It's not on the moon at all Where people's hearts are filled with passion I miss it so, 'cause I'm here chasing love In my land of great romantics I'm the biggest dreamer of them all No way to stop their desire to change And to improve our world One invented Esperanto Ready to move and to try something new I'm convinced that Chopin too Would dig samba if he had a chance to groove Though it's true That I only know very few simple words of your language I've cracked it I've decided Because the only words we need to communicate Are the ones that can help me say "I do love you" And that make me understand you love me too Our love will take this globe by storm If it's London, Warsaw or New York 'Cause all around the world People want to love and be loved Open your eyes There's so much we don't know We don't even realise So you might get a better picture And if I say, that on this planet today We all have the same hearts, I don't claim I'm Curie or Copernicus Nasza miloscia podbijemy glob Londyn, Warszawe albo Nowy Jork Sporjz tylko wsyscy w krag Chca byc kochani i kochac chca |

"tender feelings heal with flowers
when your woes and sorrows leave you overwhelmed for the state of endless sadness or uncompleted mourning-- take star of bethlehem, there's willow if bitter, when helpless-- wild rose, some sunshine wattle revives all lost hopes" but for a simple case of longing-- what are we to do when homeless in our hearts and souls some of us take daring chances following our lovers-- the passion we can trust... others just cannot sit still-- they're driven by the power of mighty wanderlust wherever we go, god, we're trying so hard to make every place feel like home left behind but despite of all endeavours--nothing changed, as ever--we're homeless in our hearts... but i'm yearning no more 'cause i found my home in you and now it's where i belong i gave up the world to be with you come to me, i'll soothe your yearning... is this what you've always dreamed of the aim of our desire is hard to recognize it often stares you in the face and yet, against all reason, takes the longest time to find you circle the globe, go native, go far... but it's not a country or a town, not a house... what's the use of distant travel if only to discover--you're homeless in your heart but i'm yearning no more 'cause i found my home in you and now it's where i belong i gave up the world to be with you so come to me, let me soothe your yearning... |

(and didn't listen) But don't worry---I'm with you 'Cause nowhere else I would rather be Couldn't live without you Wouldn't do without you near me I'm so happy where I am But too much of a good thing Never hurt anybody So let's leave this noisy town And move out to tread on enchanted ground I've got to get things ready Don't delay it any longer And find a little house in a valley Where the sun's always smiling A perfect place for you and me Miles away Now you see the reason Why I'm drifting miles away (but now without you) Just imagine a great big world Only waiting for us to discover it I'm getting so impatient Our life could be even better In our little house in a valley Where the sun's always smiling Where we got some more space to breathe Miles away When the world gets too much We'll hide So no one can find us there (says answering machine "Phone again leave your name Don't disturb our little home miles away.") Let's find a little house in a valley Where the sun's always smiling My neighbors are Jeff and Jill Miles away---somewhere Miles away |

How well I know this feeling
Seems that you will never learn It can't go on forever But very soon the tide will turn When it won't go away And no one else can cover you I'll shelter you from thunder Run for cover,got to run for cover When danger is around Run for cover,got to run for cover I'll never let you down down down If you play with fire You're gonna get your fingers burned Now the stakes are higher Remember what it was we learned When it won't go away And no one else can cover you I'll shelter you from thunder Run for cover,got to run for cover I'll always be around Run for cover,got to run for cover When the sky is falling down down down Everyday I'm getting stronger On a wave of hope that's going round There's another world inside my heart It's not impossible to turn it inside out When it won't go away And no one else can cover you I'll shelter you from thunder Run for cover,got to run for cover When danger is around Run for cover,got to run for cover I'll never let you down down down Run for cover,got to run for cover I'll always be around Run for cover,got to run for cover When the sky is falling down down down |

Take him back Rachel
It's time to stop lying When he looks at me he's dreaming of your eyes Don't be hard Rachel There is no denying He wa never truly happy in my arms Take him back, oh take him back Rachel Ignore what people say and listen to your heart Someone up there knows it is only your silly pride Maybe that's the best thing that ever happened to you Sail against the wind Against the tide Don't say it's not right Take him back Take him back Rachel He is pining for you Just a mention of your name His heart flutters Don't waste time Rachel Sure you know too That being with him is the only thing that matters |

You know me well by now
There's more to be discovered And Baby my good heart Might improve your inner life Listen -- I'm your friend I don't try to be your mother Strange as it may seem I believe wrong can turn to right Against the rule I'm always here for you On each other's side There's so much that we can do Because no matter where we are going there together There's no doubt we will get there in the end And if we have to stop Gonna wait through stormy weather If not lovers we still remain best friends |

look around - it's almost summer
yet there's winter in her heart you could never love another still, can your fire melt her ice... can your fire melt her ice seasons change, you cry in silence for the love you cannot live without you've done your best, you tried your hardest the time has come, be strong, give it up all you need is a clear horizon, a clear horizon all we wish is everyday, hope and pray, for all of us a clear and quiet sky the darkest night is slowly fading and the sun willl come out to blind your eyes could it be a new beginning? trust yourself - you're an angel, you can fly trust yourself - you're an angel, you can all we need is a clear horizon... |

"tender feelings heal with flowers
when your woes and sorrows leave you overwhelmed for the state of endless sadness or uncompleted mourning-- take star of bethlehem, there's willow if bitter, when helpless-- wild rose, some sunshine wattle revives all lost hopes" but for a simple case of longing-- what are we to do when homeless in our hearts and souls some of us take daring chances following our lovers-- the passion we can trust... others just cannot sit still-- they're driven by the power of mighty wanderlust wherever we go, god, we're trying so hard to make every place feel like home left behind but despite of all endeavours--nothing changed, as ever--we're homeless in our hearts... but i'm yearning no more 'cause i found my home in you and now it's where i belong i gave up the world to be with you come to me, i'll soothe your yearning... is this what you've always dreamed of the aim of our desire is hard to recognize it often stares you in the face and yet, against all reason, takes the longest time to find you circle the globe, go native, go far... but it's not a country or a town, not a house... what's the use of distant travel if only to discover--you're homeless in your heart but i'm yearning no more 'cause i found my home in you and now it's where i belong i gave up the world to be with you so come to me, let me soothe your yearning... |

How well I know this feeling
Seems that you will never learn It can't go on forever But very soon the tide will turn When it won't go away And no one else can cover you I'll shelter you from thunder Run for cover,got to run for cover When danger is around Run for cover,got to run for cover I'll never let you down down down If you play with fire You're gonna get your fingers burned Now the stakes are higher Remember what it was we learned When it won't go away And no one else can cover you I'll shelter you from thunder Run for cover,got to run for cover I'll always be around Run for cover,got to run for cover When the sky is falling down down down Everyday I'm getting stronger On a wave of hope that's going round There's another world inside my heart It's not impossible to turn it inside out When it won't go away And no one else can cover you I'll shelter you from thunder Run for cover,got to run for cover When danger is around Run for cover,got to run for cover I'll never let you down down down Run for cover,got to run for cover I'll always be around Run for cover,got to run for cover When the sky is falling down down down |

Freeze---thaw
Slow but sure It breaks my heart Either---or Make up your mind I'm hanging on If I counted all the times You are as sure as me I'd give you up for someone else Whose heart was free When you change your tune With every mood What am I to do with you Freeze---thaw Freeze and thaw Don't love and ignore me Come and go When you want I never know I open up You close me down We're out of time When you show the other side It warms the heart of me But there again It's not enough To keep my love When you change your tune With every mood What am I to do with you Freeze---thaw Freeze and thaw Don't love and ignore me Freeze---thaw Slow but sure It breaks my heart Either---or Make up your mind I'm hanging on When you change your tune With every mood What am I to do with you |

Once upon a time it was for real
Nothing mattered---then we were together And I couldn't ask for more My dream came true You were nearest to my heart I can't make you love me anymore Nothing matters now when you are gone Tried so many times before Only now I understand We never felt the same But I don't mind I don't mind A better combination won't be hard to find Got to learn to walk again It's so new---being free Start the life of different kind No more us From now on it's---me I know this empty room too well I've got to plan my new life's resolutions First of all I show you how I can survive I never knew that I could laugh like this So I don't mind I don't mind A better combination won't be hard to find Got to learn to walk again It's so new---being free Start the life of different kind No more us From now on it's---me I don't mind (x16) Got to learn to walk again It's so new---being free Start the life of different kind No more us From now on it's---me Once upon a time it was for real Nothing mattered then we were together You were nearest to my heart Only now I understand We never felt the same I don't mind,I don't mind,I don't mind I don't mind,I don't mind,I don't mind I don't mind I don't mind,I don't mind,I don't mind |

Nobody knows where she came from
The tall-and -tanned-young-and-lovely girl With a voice as light as air Nobody knows but no one cares 'Cause everybody loves her When she sings makes you dream a fairy tale With a certain smile She can make you feel so nice Saying gently "Goodbye sadness" Still will break your heart Listen to her once You'll feel lucky she was there One note samba would never be the same Where is she now, the lovely girl? With the softest voice you ever heard Asking, "Fly me to the moon" I know I'll find her in the sun of Copacabana Meditating Her lonely heart is nothing new With a certain smile She can make you feel so nice Saying gently "Goodbye sadness" Still will break your heart Listen to her once You'll feel lucky she was there One note samba would never be the same Never be the same Listen to her once You'll feel lucky she was there One note samba would never be.... |

Your voice that sounded soft and sweet
Your manners knocked me off my feet Infatuation made me blind Today I know you are someone else Than the one I keep in my mind So now you think I'm yours And you don't have to try Seems nothing I do is right How dare you talk to me like that If you're not careful I'll get mad How dare you talk to me like that Let this be a warning You made me hope we'd live a dream But now you make me want to scream Poetic style turned into prose This gentleman that once I knew I wonder if it was really you 'Cause now you think I'm yours And you don't have to try Seems nothing I do is right How dare you talk to me like that If you're not careful I'll get mad How dare you talk to me like that Let this be a warning Now you think I'm yours And you don't have to try Seems nothing you do is right How dare you talk to me like that If you're not careful I'll get mad How dare you talk to me like that Let this be a warning (x5) How dare you talk to me like that (x5) |

I'm sorry darling but I was miles away from here
(and didn't listen) But don't worry---I'm with you 'Cause nowhere else I would rather be Couldn't live without you Wouldn't do without you near me I'm so happy where I am But too much of a good thing Never hurt anybody So let's leave this noisy town And move out to tread on enchanted ground I've got to get things ready Don't delay it any longer And find a little house in a valley Where the sun's always smiling A perfect place for you and me Miles away Now you see the reason Why I'm drifting miles away (but now without you) Just imagine a great big world Only waiting for us to discover it I'm getting so impatient Our life could be even better In our little house in a valley Where the sun's always smiling Where we got some more space to breathe Miles away When the world gets too much We'll hide So no one can find us there (says answering machine "Phone again leave your name Don't disturb our little home miles away.") Let's find a little house in a valley Where the sun's always smiling My neighbors are Jeff and Jill Miles away---somewhere Miles away |

Cry
Come to me and cry I know, I know, I know it's not easy Your heart is aching But so is mine, How can I tell you Why For so long, so long, so long, I've been thinking Now I know I can't live a lie They say true love lasts forever If we want it There will be waiting A second chance Baby but now we need time Time to learn Time to understand Where we went wrong 'Cause I feel so strong We are cruising for bruising My Baby Go I must let you go Don't stop, don't stop 'cause it's better now When I still love you Don't say goodbye So bye for now, don't let it die 'cause we can try some other time |

You know me well by now
There's more to be discovered And Baby my good heart Might improve your inner life Listen -- I'm your friend I don't try to be your mother Strange as it may seem I believe wrong can turn to right Against the rule I'm always here for you On each other's side There's so much that we can do Because no matter where we are going there together There's no doubt we will get there in the end And if we have to stop Gonna wait through stormy weather If not lovers we still remain best friends |

Looking out of the window
Can't believe what I see Where was all this beauty when I loved you >From now on this is my world Yes we lost but I don't hurt any more I knew there must be more to life than this Now is the time for me I'm grateful -- you set me free Baby one good turn deserves another Now is the time for you Pray our dreams come true Could not see the world around me You were my world But now I keep inside my heart a Brave New Hope There is no need to worry I'll find my place in the sun Better days arehere to stay forever Times are changing so am I Not alone 'cause there's a heart needing love I know that God will give me one more chance Everything seems new Have to get to know my friends again I never realized that it could be like this Time is a love-continuum And I've got so much love to give I'm not afraid to start this journey again tomorrow |
