What a wonderful world this is
What a wonderful world this is
It makes me want to kiss
What a beautiful kiss this is
What a beautiful kiss of life
Just before I die
I've been spending time
I've been losing time
Time was all we had
But it was never ours to keep
Time can help you find the ground and knock you off your feet
All those minutes get lost in time
One step forward two steps behind
So before I think myself too deep
What a wonderful world this is
What a wonderful world this is
What a delicate tale of bliss
That I don't want to miss
In this moment where we all exist
On the precipice of the abyss
It always was, how it is
Spending time, wasting time
I've been spending time,
I've been wasting time
Time was all we had
But it was never ours to keep
Time can help you find the ground and knock you off your feet
All those minutes get lost in time
One step forward two steps behind
So before I think myself too deep
What a wonderful world this is
No time...
Am I losing my mind
No time...
Am I losing my mind
There's no time for us, no time for us
until we're out of time
(we're running out of time)
There's no time for us, no time
What a wonderful world this is
There's no time for us, no time (we're running out of time)
(Time was all we had
But it was never ours to keep
Time was all we had
But it was never ours to keep
Time was all we had
But it was never ours to keep)
Can't decide if I should read or think
I'll keep an open mind, till the day sets in
Hear you call me, I'm so willing to call back
Hear you thinking, hope you hear me thinking too
CHORUS:
Why can't I wake up with you
S you're there when I open my eyes
Baby why can't I wake up with you
You're my life
I feel alive, so I'll just begin
Te rest my mind, before you ring me
Hear you thinking, hope you hear me thinking too
CHORUS
So good to be near you, so dark when you walk from my side
Baby why can't I wake up with you, you're my life, you're my life
When we were young
the world seemed so old
Careless and cold
We did what we were told in our lifes
When we were young
Had the world by the tail
Good would prevail
Starships at sail
And none of us would fail in this life
Not when you're young
We were drawn to whoever
could keep us together
And bound by the heavens above
And we tried to survive travelling at the speed of love
(Wo oh oh)
When we were young
When we adored the fabulous
(Wo oh oh)
When we were young
We were the foolish fearless
Never knowing the cost of what we
paid letting someone else be strong
(Who oh oh)
When we were young
In a moment of grace
A long leap of faith
The still more glorious dawn awaits
It's my life...
I'm here with the lovers
And we burned the bridges
We're crossing over
Just to see the firelight
And the innocent are getting over
Being old... tonight
(Who oh oh)
When we were young
When everything was what it seemed
(Who oh oh)
When we were young
And every day was how we dreamed
Never knowing the cost of what we paid letting someone else be strong
(Who oh oh)
When we were young
And when you look at yourself tonight
Are you someone you recognize?
You can take back what you've given away
but it must be the last time
(Who oh oh)
When we were young
(Who oh oh)
When we were young
When we were young
I'm mad at you, because af all the things you do
I want you to see the way your games are hurting me
So why did I ever fall in love with you
You're all of my nightmares and dreams come true
What can I do to make you talk this problem through
You said you've nothing to hide
So let me hear your feelings inside
I never dreamed that I'd see this kind of thing in my life
So baby, plase let me go, let me go
Whatever you do to me
Somebody else will do to you
However you break my heart
Somebody else will break yours too
All I can see are staring eyes of mistery
I've tried to look behind before you take my dignity and pride
We sit and talk all night, still you never seem to lose your height
You believe in yourself, I hope I'm never gonna need your help
Whatever you do to me
Somebody else will do to you
However you break my heart
Somebody else will break yours too
You don't want me, you don't need me, I got news now
Cos baby I'm watching you
Whatever you do to me
Somebody else will do to you
However you break my heart
Somebody else will break yours too
My greatest fear is
we're just wasting tears
wasting several years
still being round here
My greatest fear is
Maybe you will notice
I'm not what you wanted
after all these years
But I, I've got a very big hope for us
I'm gonna keep looking out for us
It's been a difficult year
And I still wanna make love with you
So where do we go from here
What do you want from me?
What do you want from me?
I still think I'm in love with you
I still wanna belong to you
So what do you want from me?
What do you want from me now?
Your greatest fear is we're not getting wiser
We're not wise at all
It's getting harder, harder to recover
From the night before us
When you turn me on
But I, I like to think of us moving on
I like to think of us getting on
So answer me, where do we go from here?
Where do we go,
Because I, I still wanna get old with you
I still want us to grow
What do you want from me?
What do you want from me?
I, I still think I'm in love with you
I still feel you're the one
So, what do you want from me?
What do you want from me now?
Has it crossed your mind we might already know?
If we only let it go...
Yeah
I, I still wanna have sex with you
I still wanna go out with you
So what do you want from me?
What do you want from me?
I, I think somedays we're beautiful
I think someday's we're not
So what do you want from me?
What do you want from me now? <

You've maybe seen me walk behind you
I follow you just everywhere you go
I've heard a whisper, they're telling me you've missed her
I know you're loving someone else
Instead of loving me, so I've been
Wasting my time, running after you girl
Wasting my time, still I feel a sense of love
Never be mine, you're someone else's lady
Always on my mind, that I could steal your love away
Even now I know it doesn't change me
Maybe someday you'll be free again
Till then remember, babe I won't surrender
Still hurts me when I know you're loving someone else
Instead of loving me, so I've been
Wasting my time, running after you girl
Wasting my time, still I feel a sense of love
Never be mine, you're someone else's lady
Always on my mind, that I could steal your love away
You said you've been missing me
But how can that be girl, how can that be girl
Now all our plans that used to be passing us by
You say I wanna be free
(Oh no! )
Turning into cannibals and everything that she wants is made out of minerals
I don't know what I done she only speaks in subliminals
The reception here is lousy and the service is minimal
(Oh no! )
I live with an Eskimo I
(Swallowed! ) cause we become mechanical and
(Hollow! ) I seem to make you miserable so take your tiny chemicals cause I need a miracle
(Free your soul to me)
Meet me on the corner cause the wall's on fire
(Words can set us free)
Can you make it go away make it stop! Stop!
Wait! There's something that I want to say
Something that we hid away
Something that I'd like to change
These words have never left a mouth
We never got to get it out
Communication not allowed
Somethings we don't talk about
(On no! )
I've fallen off a pedestal and your selected memory is really quite incredible to
(Morrow! )
When you get forgettable I'll try being wonderful yet totally inedible
(Free your soul to me)
Meet you there in China cross the wall of fire
(Words can set us free)
Can you make it go away make it stop! Stop!
Wait! There's something that I want to say
Something that we hid away
Something that I'd like to change
These words have never left a mouth
We never got to get it out
Communication not allowed
Somethings we don't talk about
(Free your soul) Free your soul to me
(Words can set us free)
Can you make it go away make it stop! Stop!
Wait! There's something that I want to say
Something that we hid away
Something that I'd like

I, I’m just a piece of your pie chart
You’re in a room with a rock star
Only I play the good parts of a kind heart
The sky’s too low and the room’s too dark
But she just carries on
And I get her in but her friend gets turned away
But what can I say?
When the boy meets girl and the girl meets boy
And the boy thinks the girl’s all right
Get your head out the library
Get the courage of the cavalry
You might be good looking,
But you can’t sleep with yourself tonight
Oh what a beast, oh what a man
You’ve gotta get it while you can
Oh what a beast, oh what a man
Oh I, I wish that beggars were choosers
Unload my love like a looter
I need some gas and a kick start, for a good heart
The lightings cheap, and the room is cold
But she just carries on
And you’ll get no sleep
But you might be turned away
So what will you say?
When the boy meets girl and the girl meets boy
And the boy thinks the girl’s all right
Get your head out the library
Get the courage of the cavalry
You might be good looking,
But you can’t sleep with yourself tonight
Oh what a beast, oh what a man
You’ve gotta get it while you can
Oh what a beast, oh what a man
Oh what a beast, oh what a man
When the boy meets girl and the girl meets boy
And the boy thinks the girl’s all right
Get your head out the library
Get the courage of the cavalry
If you’re so good looking
Why don’t you sleep with yourself tonight?
Oh what a beast, oh what a man ... Read more »
Oh I can see the future
Coming to you
Crying with the sadness in your eyes
And I can find a faith in years I've wasted
Being around enough to feel alive
And when the world is broken, hurt and colder
No one ever knows the reason why
For the ones we may become
For the balance we have won
For the day we wish the sun
Gonna play it loud tonight
When you dream of a dream
And you live in the world
Every hope is a hope
For the best don't want you resting my bones
And you're calling me now
I will see you all the time
Should be out there living the life
And not just watching you
Take me back
Before we all explode
Before we turn to stone
Before the light is gone
Take me back
To where it all began
To where our memories grow
Before the day goes off
Tonight we gotta live for
We gotta live for these days
Tonight, tonight, we'll remember
We'll remember these days
What a day to believe
To believe in the night
Want a date to belong, to a face in the crowd to the beat of your heart
And the moment begin
And you're working it out
And you're holding us all
In your hands, don't want you waiting for
Take me back
Before we lose control
Before the tables turn
Before we break it off
Take me back
To where it all began
To where our memories grow
Before they take us off
Tonight we gotta live for
We gotta live for these days
Tonight, tonight, we'll remember
We'll remember these days
Oh I can see the future
Coming to you
Crying with the sadness in your eyes
And I can find a faith in years I've wasted
Being around enough to feel alive
And when the world is broken, hurt and colder
No one ever knows the reason

Standing on the edge of forever,
At the start of whatever,
Shouting love at the world.
Back then, we were like cavemen,
We'd beam at the moon and the stars,
Then we forgave them.
We will meet you where the lights are,
The defenders of the faith we are.
Where the thunder turns around
They'll run so hard
we'll tear the ground away.
You know no one dies,
In these love drowned lies,
Through our love drowned eyes,
We'll watch you sleep tonight.
Although no one understood
We were holding back the flood,
Learning how to dance the rain.
We were holding back the flood
They said we'd never dance again.
Bleeding, but none of us leaving,
Watch your mouth son
Or you'll find yourself floating home.
Here we come now on a dark star,
Seeing demons, not what we are.
Tiny minds and eager hands hands
Will try to strike
But now will end today.
There's progress now
Where there once was none,
Where there once was ah,
Then everything came along.
Although no one understood
We were holding back the flood,
Learning how to dance the rain.
We were holding back the flood
they said we'd never dance again.
Although no one understood
We were holding back the flood,
Learning how to dance the rain.
There was more of them than us
Now they’ll never dance again.
We will meet you where the lights are,
The defenders, of the faith we are.
Where the thunder turns around
They'll run so hard
we'll tear the ground away.
Although no one understood
There was more of them than us
learning how to dance the rain.
(learning how to dance the rain)
There was more of them than us
Now they’ll never dance again.
