DON'T TELL ME
Don't tell me to stop
Tell the rain not to drop
Tell the wind not to blow
'Cause you said so, mmm
Tell the sun not to shine
Not to get up this time, no, no
Let it fall by the way
But don't leave me where I lay down
Chorus:
Tell me love isn't true
It's just something that we do
Tell me everything I'm not
But please don't tell me to stop
But don't ever tell me to stop
Tell the leaves not to turn
But don't ever tell me I'll learn, no, no
Take the black off a crow
But don't tell me I have to go
Tell the bed not to lay
Like the open mouth of a grave, yeah
Not to stare up at me
Like a calf down on its knees
Please don't
Please don't
Please don't tell me to stop
[Don't you ever]
Don't you ever
Don't ever tell me to stop
[Tell the rain not to drop]
Tell the bed not to lay
Like a open mouth of a grave, yeah
Not to stare up at me
Like a calf down on its knees
HERE I AM
Here I am - this is me
There's no where else on earth I'd rather be
Here I am - it's just me and you
Tonight we make our dreams come true
It's a new world - it's a new start
It's alive with the beating of - young hearts
It's a new day - it 's a new plan
I've been waiting for you
Here I am
Here we are - we've just begun
And after all this time - our time has come
here we are - still goin' strong
Right here in the place where we belong
It's a new world - it's a new start
It's alive with the beating of - young hearts
It's a new day - it 's a new plan
I've been waiting for you
Here I am
Here I am
Here I am
Waiting for you
Here I am - this is me
There's no where else on earth I'd rather be
Here I am - just me and you
Tonight we make our dreams come true
It's a new world - it's a new start
It's alive with the beating of - young hearts
It's a new day - it 's a new plan
I've been waiting for you
It's a new world - it's a new start
It's alive with the beating of - young hearts
It's a new day - it 's a new plan
I've been waiting for you
Here I am - next to you
And suddenly the world is all brand new
Here I am - where I'm gonna stay
Now there's nothin standin in our way
Here I am
This is what I call true(blind) love
IN THE END
It starts with one thing
I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard you try keep that in mind
I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time
All I know
Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
It's so unreal
Didn't look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on, but didn't even know
Wasted it all just to watch you go
I kept everything inside and even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when
I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
One thing, I don't know why
It doesn稚 even matter how hard you try, keep that in mind
I designed this rhyme, to explain in due time
I tried so hard
In spite of the way you were mocking me
Acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me
I'm surprised it got so (far)
Things aren't the way they were before
You wouldn't even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me (in the end)
You kept everything inside and even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when I
I致e put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
And for all this
There's only one thing you should know
NUMB
I'm tired of being what you want me to be
feeling so faithless
lost under the surface
I don't know what you're expecting of me
put under the pressure
of walking in your shoes
[caught in the undertow / just caught in the undertow]
every step that i take is another mistake to you
I've
become so numb
I can't feel you there
become so tired
so much more aware
i'm becoming this
all i want to do
is be more like me
and be less like you
can't you see that you're smothering me
holding too tightly
afraid to lose control
cause everything that you thought i would be
has fallen apart right in front of you
[caught in the undertow / just caught in the undertow]
every step that i take is another mistake to you
[caught in the undertow / just caught in the undertow]
and every second i waste is more than I can take
but I know
I may end up failing too
but I know
you were just like me
with someone disappointed in you
WHEN I'M GONE
There痴 another world inside of me that you may never see,
There痴 secrets in this life I can稚 hide.
Well, somewhere in this darkness, there痴 a light that I can稚 find
Well, maybe its to far away, maybe I知 just blind
Maybe I知 just blind,
Chorus
So hold me when I知 here,
Love me when I知 wrong,
Hold me when I知 scared,
And love me when I知 gone.
Everything I am,
And everything in me,
Wants to be the one you wanted me to be.
I値l never let you down,
Even if I could,
Give up everything,
If only for your good,
So hold me when I知 here,
Love me when I知 wrong,
Hold me when I知 scared,
You won稚 always be there,
So love me when I知 gone.
So love me when I知 gone
Refrain
When your education x-ray cannot see under my skin,
I won稚 tell you a damn thing that I could not tell my friends.
Now roaming through this darkness,
I知 alive but I知 alone,
Part of me is fighting this but part of me is gone.
Chorus
So hold me when I知 here,
Love me when I知 wrong,
Hold me when I知 scared,
And love me when I知 gone.
Everything I am,
And everything in me,
Wants to be the one you wanted me to be.
I値l never let you down,
Even if I could,
Give up everything,
If only for your good,
So hold me when I知 here,
Love me when I知 wrong,
Hold me when I知 scared,
You won稚 always be there,
So love me when I知 gone.
Maybe I知 just blind.

If I would tell you
How much you mean to me
I think you wouldn't understand it

Until this day comes
When you will understand me
But I can't help myself
I can't stop myself
I am going crazy

I cannot control myself

Chorus:
And I love
And I want you
I wanna talk to you
I wanna be with you
And I love
And I want you

One big hell of a fuss
I cannot turn my back
I've got to face the fact
Life without you is hazy

Kiss me thrill me don't say goodbye
Hold me love me don't say goodbye
Oh oh oh don't say goodbye
But I can't help myself
I can't stop myself
I am going crazy
I cannot turn my back ...
Kiss me goodbye
FELL IN LOVE WITH AN ALIEN
Out in the fields
Where the farmers grow bread
When called for the meals
The took for the shed
Then dark came to fall
And silence was all
A beauty shone bright
Surrounded by light
Refrain
I fell in love with an alien
I fell in love with her eyes
I fell in love with an alien
Iエm telling you no disguise
Iエm in love with an alien
Iエm in love with her eyes
Iエm in love with an alien
Iエm telling you no disguise
She came looking out babe for a Romeo
She ainエt looking out babe for a homeboy
I fell in love with an alien
I fell in love with her eyes
I fell in love with an alien
Iエm telling you no disguise
The moon went to bed
Sun growing red
A scarecrow appeard
And chased her in fear
She send me her love
Her love to me
And then we did grow
A big family
IT'S MY LIFE
This ain't a song for the broken-hearted
A silent prayer for the faith-departed
I ain't gonna be just a face in the crowd
You're gonna hear my voice
When I shout it out loud
Chorus:
It's my life
It's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just wanna live while I'm alive
It's my life
This is for the ones who stood their ground
For Tommy and Gina who never backed down
Tomorrow's getting harder make no mistake
Luck ain't even lucky
Got to make your own breaks
Chorus:
It's my life
And it's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive
'Cause it's my life
Better stand tall when they're calling you out
Don't bend, don't break, baby, don't back down
Chorus:
It's my life
And it's now or never
'Cause I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive
Chorus:
It's my life
And it's now or never
'Cause I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive
'Cause it's my life!
