Saturday night I was downtown
Working for the FBI Sitting in a nest of bad men Whisky bottles piling high Bootlegging boozer on the west side Full of people who are doing wrong Just about to call up the DA man When I heard this woman singing a song A pair of 45's made me open my eyes My temperature started to rise She was a long cool woman in a black dress Just a 5-9 beautiful tall With just one look I was a bad mess 'Cos that long cool woman had it all I saw her heading to the table Well a tall walking big black cat When Charlie said I hope that you're able boy Well I'm telling you she knows where it's at Well then suddenly we heard a siren And everybody started to run Jumping out of doors and tables Well I heard somebody shooting a gun Well the DA was pumping my left hand And she was holding my right Well I told her don't get scared 'Cos you're gonna be spared Well I'm gonna be forgiven If I wanna spend my living With a long cool woman in a black dress Just a 5-9 beautiful tall With just one look I was a bad mess 'Cos that long cool woman had it all |

Standing in the shadow Of a Spanish lady Second hand bargain With a song so sad And a rose in her hand Was crying Lonely rooms in back of bars Bright lights and sitting out in the stars There was room to write a poem But the words don't come easy They're hung on frozen lips standing there While the world's anticipating love And the words don't come easy Lady laughs a laughing tear and says All we really need today Is the sun in our life The sun in our life Money was only mean to buy time No money left over Made the street to show that the door was open Out in the silence of the angry crowd Only the beggars crying aloud Not a precious thing was spoken But the words don't come easy They're hung on frozen lips standing there While the world's anticipating love And the words don't come easy Lady laughs a laughing tear and says All we really need today Is the sun in our life The sun in our life |

With every thought of you, I wanna shout aloud And then I think about the love I had inside me How you brought what's inside out So now love's made it to the outside I wanna tell the world of everything I've found Somehow your love released a spring wound up inside me You've turned my living upside-down And I can't tell the bottom from the top Am I standing on my head or on my heels? Is it cloudy is it bright? Is it day or is it night? Am I wrong or am I right? And is it real? Tell me where you learned the magic The spell you used the day you made me fall Baby, now I know that love is no illusion I'm upside-down but ten feet tall And I can't tell the bottom from the top Am I standing on my head or on my heels? Is it cloudy is it bright? Is it day or is it night? Am I wrong or am I right? And is it real? On and on I drifted with the tide I didn't know that love could move me so You filled my life with love and much more besides And you showed me which way to go And I can't tell the bottom from the top Am I standing on my head or on my heels? Is it cloudy is it bright? Is it day or is it night? Am I wrong or am I right? And is it real? And I can't tell the bottom from the top Am I standing on my head or on my heels?

Shook my head out of dreams Reality's calling The early bird's been up all morning but I've got no notion of moving from where I am Though my legs won't move I feel disabled I'm on a shelf an article labeled waiting for someone to fetch me from lost and found I'm down No one to hear me calling I'm down No one to see me falling I'm down Had my ways with days of sunshine Life came easy it all fell in line But then again I didn't realise When you're used to one thing it's hard to accept another Like the woman who brought you up well she ain't your mother How do you cope with a thing like that chorus I always thought it was my dad who went to war Thought it was my sister who fell off the wall My pseudo-brother Billy emigrated long ago Someone went through pain to have me someone I should know I'm down I'm down To the folks who brought me up I'm not ungrateful Kept the secret from me they thought it was shameful It hurt me so to be the last one to know Maybe someone's out there looking for me Left on their own couldn't afford to clothe me And I I don't even know my real name chorus I'm down I'm down I'm down |

Look at us, we've come so far Every road travelled says who we are Like a tide, we rise and fall We sail on, through the storm, So many changes in my life Every precious moment has a sacrifice There were times when I stood alone I found the strength to carry on And when I thought the walls were closing in around me Oh baby you were my fight I was standing in the dark waiting for the light to shine on me When you came into my life like a thousand angels watching over me Well I have nowhere left to go And I can't take it any more You were right there in front of me Now I'm holding out my heart, giving all I've got 'Cos you're part of me, let it shine on me In a time where worlds collide So many teardrops from a strangers eyes There's an answer inside of you Close your eyes, see the truth Just when you think the walls are closing in around you Oh baby I'll be your fight I was standing in the dark waiting for the light to shine on me When you came into my life like a thousand angels watching over me Well I have nowhere left to go And I can't take it any more You were right there in front of me Now I'm holding out my heart, giving all I've got 'Cos you're part of me, let it shine on me You don't need to hide in the shadows alone All you have to do is stand up, you're not on your own Take a look around you babe Well I have nowhere left to go And I can't take it any more You were right there in front of me I was standing in the dark waiting for the light to shine on me When you came into my life like a thousand angels watching over me Let it shine on me I was standing in the dark waiting for the light to shine on me When you came into my life like a thousand angels watching over me |

What is this feeling, confusing me more and more I'm out of control and my body is oh so unsure Don't understand what's happened to me This is not how it should be Everyday the world gets harder to face For these loving arms there's no better place Emotions, running away with me Changing me endlessly, affecting my gravity Emotions, taking me up and down Turning my life around, Stealing my energy (Take, keep, holding, feel the gravity, Got no energy, changing endlessly) I search for solutions, no hope for conclusions, I'm torn What is this life about, I can't work out why I was born Ooh, don't know what is this thought, is the power of thought in me It's a strange reaction, but I never fekt this way before It seems to have a life of its own It goes on and on and on Emotions, running away with me Changing me endlessly, affecting my gravity Emotions, taking me up and down Turning my life around, Stealing my energy (Take, keep, holding, feel the gravity, Got no energy, changing endlessly) |

If I were the sun, way up there I'd roll around almost anywhere Oh, I'd be the moon when the sun goes down Just to let you know, I'm still around That's how strong my love is, oh That's how strong my love is, baby, baby That's how strong my love is, yeah That's how strong my love is I'd be the weeping willow, drown in my tears You could go swimming whenever you're near Oh, I'd be the rainbow when tears are gone Wrap you in my colors, keep you warm chorus I'd be the ocean so deep and so wide I'd shed your tears whenever you'd cry I'd be the breeze when the storms are gone And dry your eyes and keep you warm That's how strong love is, yeah That's how strong my love is, baby, baby That's how strong love is, listen to me know That's how strong my love is verse 3 chorus |

How soon tears begin to tumble From her laughing eyes She's been talking to somebody Who told her lies She'll never trust in anybody no more Who told her lies She'll never trust in anybody no more How can I begin to reach her Let her know the truth What that someone has been saying Is only lies She'll never trust in anybody no more It's only lies She'll never trust in anybody no more How could she think that I Would take advantage of a girl like her How could she think that I Would sacrifice all I have felt for her Would sacrifice all I have felt for her Like a flower she is fading Soon she'll wilt and die If she doesn't get the sunlight That I can give She'll never trust in anybody no more That I can give She'll never trust in anybody no more verse 3 verse 4 |

A winter's day in a deep and dark December I am alone Gazing from my window to the street below On a freshly fallen , silent shroud of snow I am a rock I am an island Don't talk of love Well, I've heard the word before It's sleeping in my memory Don't disturb the slumber Of feelings that have died If I never loved, I never would have cried chorus I build walls A fortress deep and might That none may penetrate I have no need of friendship Friendship causes pain It's laughter and it's loving I disdain chorus I have my books And my poetry to protect me I am shielded in my armor Hiding in my room, safe within my womb I touch no one and no one touches me chorus And a rock feels no pain And an island never cries chorus x 2 |
