Please lock me away And do not allow the day here inside Where I hide withe my loneliness I do not care what they say I will not stay in a world without love
Birds sing out of tune And raindrops hide the moon I am okay, here I will stay With my loneliness
So I wait and in awhile I will see my true love smile, yeah He may come, I know not when But when he does I will know So baby until then lock me away And do not allow the day here inside Where I hide with my loneliness...
Got a room about 20 feet wide There's a blue light bulb Hanging from the sky Threw a mattress on the floor where we can hide Hold my hand to the subway door I can make us invisible All the way to Chinatown Steam is rising from the street below Neon sign like a carnival You bring the color to a grey rainbow My guitar and a bottle of the red So much pain that I want to forget On our way to Chinatown Take you over to my side of town Show you how the real world gets down Trouble, I thought I could hold you down All the way to Chinatown Sheets of rain banging on the window Turning into a blanket of snow Getting good of pulling over the wool Miles away there's another world I know I am the luckiest girl Found my heart in Chinatown Take you over to my side of town Show you how the real world gets down Trouble, I thought I could hold you down All the way to Chinatown
There's a secret path I ollow To a place no one can find Where I meet my perfect someone I've kept hidden in my mind Where my heart makes my decisions 'Til my dream becomes a vision And the love I feel Makes him real someday
*Cause I know he's out there somewhere Just beyond my reach Though I've never really touched him Or ever heard him speak Though we've never been together We've never been apart No, we've never met, haven't found him yet But I know him by heart
Am I living an illusion? Wanting something I can't see If I compromise, I'd be living lies Pretending he's not meant to be Cause I know my heart's worth saving And I know that he'll be waiting So I'll hold on and I'll stay strong 'til then
* Repeat
No we've never met Haven't found him yet But I know him by heart

Blown away like the wind, restless again My only friend has gone away Washed like the tide but I'm still alive I'm gonna drive all night long
This is crazy now, I'll fill the space somehow If there were someway to get through This is crazy now, I'll fill the space somehow I can't walk away from you
Shaken like a leave, sharpened like a reef All of my senses need relief Looking out to sea, I still believe That you and I were meant to be
This is crazy now, I'll fill the space somehow If there were someway to get through This is crazy now (like a finger paint) Fill the space somehow (smearing in the rain) I can't walk away from you (wash it all away)
This is crazy now (shaken like a leave) I'll fill the space somehow (Sharpened like a reef) I can't walk away from you
This is crazy now (Shaken' like a leaf) Fill the space somehow (Sharpened like a reef) I can't walk away from you
I like the way you wanted me Every night for so long baby I like the way you needed me Every time things got rocky I was believing in you Was I mistaken Do you say, do you say what you mean? I want our love to last forever
But I would rather you be mean than love and lie I would rather hear the truth and have to say goodbye I would rather take a blow at least then I would know But baby do not you break my heart slow I like the way you would hold me Every night for so long baby And I like the way you would say my name In the middle of the night While you were sleeping
I was believing in you Was I mistaken Do you mean, do you mean what you say? When you say our love could last forever...
As I walk this land of broken dreams I have visions of many things Lovez happiness is just an illusion Filled with sadness and confusion What becomes of the brokenhearted Who had love that is now departed I know I have got to find Some kind of peace of mind, maybe The fruits of love grow all around But for me they come tumbling down Everyday heartaches grow a little stronger I can not stand this pain much longer I walk in shadows searching for light Cold and alone, no comfort in sight Hoping and praying or someone to care Always moving and going nowhere I am searching though I do not succeed But someone look, there is a growing need Oh he is lost, there is no place for beginning All that is left is an unhappy ending...
Starry, starry night Paint your palette blue and gray Look out on a summerz day With eyes that know the darkness in my soul Shadows on the hill Sketch the trees and daffodils Catch the breeze and the winter chills In colors on the snowy linen land Now I understand What you tried to say to me And how you suffered you sanity And how you tried to set them free They would not listen, they did not know how Perhaps they will listen now
Starry, Starry night Flaming flowers that brightly blaze Swirling clouds in violet haze Reflect in Vincentz eyes of China blue Colors changing hue Morning fields of amber grain Weathered faces lined in pain Are soothed beneath the artistz loving hand Now I understand What you tried to say to me They did not listen, they did not know how Perhaps they will listen now Starry, starry night
I was alright for awhile I could smile for awhile But I saw you last night You held my hand so tight As you stopped to say hello Oh you wished me well You could not tell that I had been Crying over you .. When you said, so long Left me standing all alone Alone and crying Crying, crying, crying, crying It is hard to understand How the touch of your hand Can start me crying
I thought that I was over you But it is true, oh so true I love you even more Than I did before But darling what can I do? For you do not love me And I will always be Crying for you Yes now you are gone And from this moment on I will be crying...over you
I need your sweet inspiration I need you here on my mind Every hour of the day Without your sweet inspiration The lonely hours of the night Just do not go my way A woman in love Needs sweet inspiration Yeah, and honey that is all I ask, that is all I ask from you I have gotta have your sweet inspiration You know there just aint no telling what a satisfied woman might do
The way you call me baby, baby Is such a sweet inspiration The way you call me darling, darling Sets my heart to skating And if I am out in the rain, baby And in a bad situation You know I just reach back in my mind And there I find your sweet, sweet inspiration Oh, what a power And I have got the power Every hour of the day I need your inspiration To go on, to go on living To keep on giving this way...
1.The time has gone, For closing book and long last looks must end And as I leave I know that I am leaving my best friend, A friend who taught me right from wrong, And weak from strong, that's a lot to learn. What, what can I give you in return, If you wanted the moon I would try to make a start But I would rather, you let give my heart To Sir With Love.
2.Those schoolgirl days Of telling tales and hitting nails are gone, But in my mind I know they will still live on and on. But how do you think someone Who has taken you from crayons to perfume, It isn't easy but I'll try. If you wanted the sky I'd write across the sky in letters That would soar a thousand feet high To Sir With Love.
3.Those awkward years, Have hurried by why did they fly away Why is it, Sir Children grow up to be people one day. What takes the place of climbing trees And dirty knees in the world outside What, what is there for you I can buy, If you wanted the world I'd surround it with a wall I'd scrawl These words with letters ten feet tall To Sir With Love.
Someday we will be together Someday we will be together You are far away, baby From me my love, ooh yeah And just as sure my, my baby As there are stars above I wanna say Someday we will be together Someday, some sweet day We will be together
My love is yours, baby Right from the start, oh yeah You, you, you possess my soul now honey I know, I know you own my soul now honey And I wanna say
A long time ago, my, my sweet thing I made a big mistake honey I, said I, said goodbye Ever, since that day now All I, all I wanna do All I wanna do Is cry, cry, cry I long for you Every, every night Ooh, just to kiss your sweet lips baby Hold you ever, and ever so tight, and I wanna say...
Go ahead and cry now Just give in to the madness The only way to feel your joy Is to first feel the sadness Go ahead and sail now Just give in to the ocean The only way to tame your fear Is to feel her rocky motion
You are a long way from somewhere you call home, yeah There is a place in your heart, you are not alone All of the happiness you seek All of the joy for which you pray Is closer than you think It is just 100 tears away
Go ahead and listen Just give into the voices You think you are backed into a corner But you have got so many choices You are a long way from somewhere you call safe Peace of mind comes from just one place All of the happiness you seek All of the joy for which you pray Is closer than you think It is just 100 tears away...
We held hands and laughed Then we jumped in the water Off the jetty we would fly As the sun got hotter We were any age Floating through space Happy for once in the human race On this sweet Sunday, and into Monday Your arms wrapped around me Where my love has found me But am I really free?
If I could read your mind I hope I would find The same love I have in mine If I could go back in time I would try to find you And make up for all this wasted time
Like a broken record I have stayed protected From promises, from disappointments I wanna hear your dreams, wanna drift away Wanna break you in Oh I wanna stay Stay in heaven, oh in heaven And see my life finally begin Will we be together, oh forever? Darling please let me in...
I'm gonna discontinue him like a Line that's breaking, breaking Our love seemed to crash Like a wave that's taking Taking down everything Seven days, that's all it's been Tomorrow will be eight Feel like I'm counting The raindrops in a hurricane In this perfect place I believe
Swimming through the days While the world goes crazy No wonder the state I'm in Am I wrong to wanna dream Myself into oblivion, sweet oblivion Seven days I am amazed Tomorrow will be eight Feeling like I'm counting The raindrops in a hurricane In this perfect place I believe that there Is someone for me
Seven days, that's all it's been Tomorrow will be eight Feel like I'm counting The raindrops in a hurricane In this perfect place I believe Is someone for me In this perfect place I believe
There's a place where we hung out At The Sunset Marquis And I miss the way your hand felt Resting on my knee It was one of the few times I didn't want to change a thing And the way the light hit your face just right Was like a movie, a movie And the way you laughed Well it warmed the draft Running through me, through me And I wanna go back to try and unwind
A couple is snapping at each other Like dirty old rubber bands While a waitress in a cat suit Is starting to expand I draw a line around your finger Like a wedding band Then I scribble down some poetry On a book of matches Cause I realise I am sitting with One of the finest catches And suddenly in the background it was you Playing on that radio Burning on that stereo In the bar at The Sunset Marquis
There was a party in my head Where did everybody go One night in the blue light I sat there all alone And I tried to remember The smell of your coat Then I touched my hand and I Whispered into my own ear, my own ear In the background something familiar Something was so clear, so clear And I realised that it was me Playing on that radio Burning on that stereo In the bar at The Sunset Marquis singing 'bout All the laughs we once had darling Oh the way it felt to me In the bar at The Sunset Marquis
