Album - 27 maggio 2010 - Debaser id 826912

Didn't I tell you everything is possible in this d�j� vu?
Try the river boat, the carousel, feed the pigeons, Bar-B-Q
Look at all the people, happy faces all around.
Smiling, throwing kisses, busy making lazy sounds.

It's a bright June afternoon, it never gets dark.
Wah-wah! Here come the sun
Get your green green tambourine, let's play in the park.
Wah-wah! Here comes the sun

Some folks are on blankets, slowly daydreaming and reaching for their food
Let's go buy an ice-cream and a magazine with an attitude and put on a cassette,
we can pretend that you're a star cos life�s so very simple just like la-la-la

It's a bright June afternoon, it never gets dark.
Wah-wah! Here come the sun
Get your green green tambourine, let's play in the park.
Wah-wah! Here comes the sun

There's a painter painting his masterpiece
There are some squirrels jumping in the trees.
There's a wide-eyed boy with a red balloon.
All my life I've longed for this afternoon.

It's a bright June afternoon, it never gets dark.
Wah-wah! Here come the sun
Get your green green tambourine, let's play in the park.
Wah-wah! Here comes the sun

She's the top, she's got the world on a string.
She makes me boogie, makes me do anything yeah yeah.
Hey now, touch the sky,
you've got a certain kind of look in your eyes.

Well, she's a miracle, she's all that I need
like the water and the air that I breathe yea yea
Hey now, reach the sky,
there's a certain kind of look in your smile.

And I know what love can do,
Yes I know what hearts can do.

The big love is taking the wheel,
the big love goes head over heels,
the big lust, bring it into
the small world, the bigger the better.

Big love, waiting to catch the big one,
head over heels,
the big one, bring it into the small world.
I'm building the big big love,
I'm building the big big love.

It's kinda strange , a bit mysterious,
I got to take it oh so so serious

Hey now, touch the sky,
you've got a certain kind of look in your eyes.
It used to be so hard, so lonely at night,
well, she's my baby and I'm feeling alright

Hey now, move the sky,
there's a certain kind of look in that smile.
When I'm making love with her, (I'm Making)
when I'm making lover to her yeah

The big love
The big love is taking the wheel,
the big love goes head over heels,
the big lust, bring it into
the small world, the bigger the better.

Big love, waiting to catch the big one,
head over heels,
the big one, bring it into the small world.
I'm building the big big love,
Yeah! I'm building the big big love.

It has to be a big thing.
It's bringing me to my knees.
Has to be a big thing,
big thing,
You know what I'm saying

The big love is taking the wheel,
the big love goes head over heels,
the big lust, bring it into
the small world, the bigger the better.

Big love, waiting to catch the big one,
head over heels,
the big one, bring it into the small world.
I'm building the big big love,
You know, I'm building the big big love.

Big love, I'm building the big love
(Big love, big love, big love, big love, big love, big love...)

What's the time, seems it's already morning
I see the sky, it's so beautiful and blue
The tv's on but the only thing showing is a picture of you

Oh I get up and make myself some coffee
I try to read a bit, but the story is too thin
I thank the Lord above you're not here to see me
in this shape I'm in

Spending my time
Watching the days go by
Feeling so small, I stare at the wall
hoping that you think of me too
I'm spending my time

I try to call but I don't know what to tell you
I leave a kiss on your answering machine
Oh help me please is there someone who can make me
wake up from this dream?

spending my time
watching the days go by
feeling so small, I stare at the wall
hoping that you are missing me too

spending my time
watching the sun go down
I fall asleep to the sound
of "tears of a clown"
a prayer gone blind
I'm spending my time

my friends keep telling me hey life will go on
time will make sure I'll get over you ooh
this silly game of love - you play, you win only to lose

I'm spending my time
watching the days go by
feeling so small, I stare at the wall
hoping that you think of me too

I'm spending my time
watching the sun go down
fall asleep to the sound
tears of a clown
a prayer gone blind

I'm spending my time...

Babe
Come in from the cold
And put that coat to rest
Step inside
Take a deep breath
And do what you do best
Yea
Kick off them shoes
And leave those city streets
I do believe
Love came our way
Fate did arrange
For us to meet

I love when you do
The hocus-pocus to me
The way that you touch
You've got the power to heal
You give me that look
It's almost unreal
It's almost unreal

Hey
We can't stop the rain
Let's find a place by the fire
Sometimes I feel
Strange as it seems
You've been in my dreams
All my life

I love when you do
The hocus-pocus to me
The way that you touch
You've got the power to heal
You give me that look
It's almost unreal
It's almost unreal

It's a crazy world out there
Let's hope our prayers
Are in good hands tonight

I love when you do
The hocus-pocus to me
The way that you touch
You've got the power to heal
You give me that look
It's almost unreal
It's almost unreal

I'll tell you what I've done
I'll tell you what I'll do
Been driving all night
just to get close to you
Baby babe - I'm moving so fast
you'd better come on

The moon is alright
the freeway's heading south
My heart is going boom
there's a strange taste in my mouth
Baby babe - I'm moving real fast
so try to hold on
Try to hold on!

Sleeping in my car
I will undress you
Sleeping in my car
I will caress you
Staying in the back seat of my car
making up, oh oh ...

So come out tonight
I'll take you for a ride
This steamy old wagon
the radio is getting wild
Baby babe - we're moving so fast
I try to hang on
Try to hang on!
yeah....

Sleeping in my car
I will undress you
Sleeping in my car
I will caress you
Staying in the back seat of my car
making love, oh yeah!
Sleeping in my car
I will posess you
Sleeping in my car
certainly bless you
Laying in the back seat of my car
making up. oh, oh...

The night is so pretty
and so young
The night is so pretty
and so young
So very young... yeah!

Sleeping in my car
I will undress you
Sleeping in my car
I will caress you
Staying in the back seat of my car
making love, to you!
Sleeping in my car
I will posess you
Sleeping in my car
certainly bless you
Laying in the back seat of my car
making up, making up...

My Papa told me to stay out of trouble
When you've found your man, make sure he's for real
I've learnt that nothing really lasts for ever
I sleep with the scars I wear that won't heal
They won't heal

'Cause every time I seem to fall in love
Crash! Boom! Bang!
I find the hope but then I hit the wall
Crash! Boom! Bang!
That's the call, that's the game
And the pain stays the same

I'm walking down this empty road to nowhere
I pass by the houses and blocks I once knew
My mama told me not to mess with sorrow
But I always did, and Lord, I still do
I'm still breaking the rule

I kick it up, I kick it down!

'Cause every time I seem to fall in love
Crash! Boom! Bang!
I find the hope but then I hit the wall
Crash! Boom! Bang!
That's my real middle name
It has always been the same
That's the call, that's the game
And the pain stays the same

I still feel the heat
Slowly fallin' (from the sky)
And the taste of the kissing
Shattered by rain
(Comin' tumblin') from behind
and the wild holy war

I kick it up, I kick it down!

Ohh
Every time I seem to fall in love
Crash! Boom! Bang!
I find the roses dying on the floor
Crash! Boom! Bang!
That's the call, that's the game
and the pain stays the same
That's my real middle name
It has always been the same

Oh yeah... Oh yeah
It has always been the same
It has always been the same

vulnerable

Everywhere I look I see her smile
Her absent-minded eyes
And she has kept me wondering for so long
How this thing could go wrong

It seems to me that we are both the same
Playing the same game
But as darkness falls this true love falls apart
Into a riddle of her heart

She's so vulnerable, like china in my hands
She's so vulnerable, and I don't understand
I could never hurt the one I love
She's all I've got
But she's so vulnerable
Oh so vulnerable

Days like these no one should be alone
No heart should hide away
Her touch is gently conquering my mind
There's nothing words can say

She's colored all the secrets of my soul
I've whispered all my dreams
But just as nighttime falls this vision falls apart
Into a riddle of her heart, yeah

She's so vulnerable, like china in my hands
She's so vulnerable and I don't understand
I could never hurt someone I love
She's all I've got
But she's so vulnerable
Oh so vulnerable.

Don't hide your eyes...

She's so vulnerable, like china in my hands
She's so vulnerable and I don't understand
I could never hurt the one I love
She's all I've got

She's so vulnerable, like china in my hands
She's so vulnerable and I don't understand
I could never hurt someone I love
She's all I've got
But she's so vulnerable
Oh so vulnerable.

She's so vulnerable
My Baby, She's vulnerable
She's so vulnerable

We grew up together,
we've been here forever.
Barefoot in the summer,
cold in stormy weather.
She taught me all there is,
like magic and love,
lots of forgotten words.

But now,
she doesn't live here anymore.
She's off and she's gone,
she doesn't live here anymore.
I'm sorry that's all there is to it,
I'm sorry that's all.

She dressed just like a painter,
a female street Picasso and I,
I will remember the heaven in her laughter.
And the scent of her sweet perfume
when we made love under an August moon

But now,
she doesn't live here anymore.
She's off and she's gone,
she doesn't live here anymore.
I'm sorry that's all there is to it,
I'm sorry that's all.

[Bridge]

But now, she doesn't live here anymore.
She's off and she's gone,
she doesn't live here anymore
She's gone since long, so long,
she doesn't live here anymore.
She took off and left home,
She doesn't live here anymore.
I'm sorry that's all there is to it,
I'm sorry that's all.
That's all.

In everything I see you appear with me, how come? How come?
And everything I do involves you too. We are like one.
In my life there has been so many changes
and I don't want to be left out in the rain.

I don't want to get hurt, I've done my time.
All I want from you is to tell the truth.
I don't want to get hurt no more this time.
I don't want to go blind and find
it's falling apart all the time.

In the middle of a dream you are there for me, your face, your lips.
But there's no way you can tell cos I hide it really well, so well.
In my life there has been loving and lying
and I don't need another reason to cry.

I don't want to get hurt...

i'm falling apart one more time

[Bridge]


I don't want to get hurt, I've done my time.
All I want from you is to tell the truth.
I don't want to get hurt no more this time.
I don't want to go blind and find
it's falling apart all the time.

I've been up all night,
you've been putting up a fight
Seems like nothin' I say gets through.
How did this old bed fit a world between me and you
We said "Goodnight" but the silence was so thick
you could cut it with a knife.
We've hit the wall again and there's nothin' I can do

You're the one, yea,
I've put all my trust in your hands.
Come on and look in my eyes,
here I am, here I am

You don't understand me, my baby,
You don't seem to know that I need you so much.
You don't understand me, my feelings,
the reason I'm breathin', my love

The mornin' comes and you're reachin' out for me
just like everything's the same
and I let myself believe things are gonna change
When you kiss my mouth and you hold my body close,
do you wonder who's inside?
Maybe there's no way we could feel each other's pain.
Tell me why it gets harder, to know where I stand.
I guess loneliness found a new friend, here I am

You don't understand me
You don't seem to get me, my baby,
You don't really see that I live for your touch
You don't understand me,
my dreams or the things I believe in, my love
You don't understand me.
You don't understand me.
Understand me.

1-2-3-4
walking like a man
hitting like a hammer
she's a juvenile scam.
Never was a quitter
tasty like a raindrop
she's got the look.

Heavenly bound cause heaven's got a number
when she's spinning me around
kissing is a colour.
Her loving is a wild dog
she's got the look.

chorus:
She's got the look.
(She's got the look.)
She's got the look.
(She's got the look.)
What in the world can make a brown-eyed girl turn blue.
When everything I'll ever do I'll do for you and I go:
la la la la la she's got the look.

Fire in the ice naked to the t-bone is a lover's disguise.
Banging on the head drum
shaking like a mad bull
she's got the look.

Swaying to the band
moving like a hammer she's a miracle man.
Loving is the ocean
kissing is the wet sand
she's got the look.

Chours

walking like a man
hitting like a hammer
she's a juvenile scam.
Never was a quitter
tasty like a raindrop
she's got the look.

And she goes: na na na na na na na na. Shes got the look

Chorus

na na na na na na na na na

chorus 2x

Yeah Yeah Yeah

Tried to make it little by little,
tried to make it bit by bit on my own.

Quit the job,
the grey believers,
another town Where I get close to the bone.

For your love,
Yeah Yeah Yeah

For your love,
Yeah Yeah Yeah

For you love,
Yeah Yeah Yeah

For your love,
Yeah Yeah Yeah

I know there's something in the wake of your smile
I get a notion from the look in your eyes, yeah
You've built a love, but that love falls apart
Your little piece of heaven, turns too dark

Listen to your heart, when he's calling for you
Listen to your heart, there's nothing else you can do
I don't know where you're going and I don't know why
But listen to your heart before you tell him goodbye

Sometimes you wonder if this fight is worthwhile
The precious moments are all lost in the tide, yeah
They're swept away, nothing is what it seems
The feeling of belonging to your dreams...

Listen to your heart, when he's calling for you
Listen to your heart, there's nothing else you can do
I don't know where you're going, and I don't know why
But listen to your heart, before you tell him goodbye...

And there are voices that want to be heard
So much to mention but you can't find the words
The scent of magic, the beauty that's been (beauty that's been)
When love was wilder than the wind

Listen to your heart (take a listen to it) when he's calling for you
Listen to your heart (take a listen to it) there's nothing else you can do
I don't know where you're going, and I don't know why
But listen to your heart, before,

Listen to your heart (take a listen to it) when he's calling for you
Listen to your heart (take a listen to it) there's nothing else you can do
I don't know where you're going, and I don't know why
But listen to your heart, before
You tell him goodbye...

Hold on tight,
you know she's a little bit dangerous.
Ooh, just a little bit dangerous.

You pack your bag,
you take control.
You're movin' into my heart
and into my soul.
Get out of my way!
Get out of my sight!
I won't be walking on thin ice
to get through the night.

Hey, where's your work?
What's your game?
I know your business,
don't know your name.

Hold on tight,
you know she's a little bit dangerous.
She's got what it takes to make ends meet,
the eyes of a lover that hit like heat.
You know she's a little bit dangerous.

You turn around,
so hot and dry.
You're hidin' under a halo,
your mouth is alive.
Get out of my way!
Get out of my sight!
I'm not attracted to gogo
deeper tonight.

Hey, what's your word?
What's your game?
I know your business,
but I don't know your name.

Hold on tight,
you know she's a little bit dangerous.
She's got what it takes to make ends meet,
the eyes of a lover that hit like heat.
You know she's a little bit dangerous,
ooh, just a little bit dangerous.

Hey, hey, hey, what's your word?
What's your game?
I know your business,
but I don't know your name.

Hold on tight,
you know she's a little bit dangerous.
She's got what it takes to make ends meet,
the eyes of a lover that hit like heat.
You know she's a little bit dangerous.

She's armed and she's extremely dangerous.
She's got what it takes to make ends meet,
the eyes of a lover that hit like heat.
You know she's a little bit dangerous,
ooh, just a little bit dangerous.

Oh, oh oh, hey, where's your work?
Mmm, what's your game?
I don't know your name.
Hey, you!
ooh, just a little bit dangerous.
I don't know your name.

(Must have been love ... But it's over now)

Lay a whisper on my pillow
Leave the winter on the ground
I wake up lonely, in this air of silence
In the bedroom and all around
Touch me now, I close my eyes
And dream away

It must have been love, but it's over now
It must have been good, but I lost it somehow
It must have been love, but it's over now
From the moment we touched, 'til the time had run out

Make-believing we're together
That I'm sheltered by your heart
In and outside I turn to water
Like a teardrop in your palm
And it's a hard winter's day
I dream away

It must have been love, but it's over now
It was all that I wanted, now I'm living without
It must have been love, but it's over now
It's where the water flows
It's where the wind blows

It must have been love, but it's over now
It must have been good, but I lost it somehow
It must have been love, but it's over now
From the moment we touched, 'til the time had run out

It must have been love, but it's over now
It was all that I wanted, now I'm living without
It must have been love, but it's over now
It's where the water flows
It's where the wind blows

Oohh

''C'mon, join the joyride, everybody
Get your tickets here
Step right this way''

Hello, you fool, I love you
C'mon join the joyride

I hit the road out of nowhere
I had to jump in my car
And be a rider in a love game
Following the stars
Don't need no book of wisdom
I get no money talk at all

She has a train going downtown
She's got a club on the moon
And she's telling all her secrets
In a wonderful balloon
She's the heart of the fun fair
She's got me whistling a private tune
And it all, begins where it ends
And she's all mine, my magic friend

She says, "Hello, you fool, I love you
C'mon join the joyride"
Join the joyride

She's a flower, I could paint her
She's a child of the sun
We're a part of this together
Could never turn around and run
Don't need no fortune teller
To know where my lucky love belongs, woah-no
'Cause it all, begins again when it ends, yeah
And we're all magic friends (magic friends, magic friends)

She says, "Hello, you fool, I love you
C'mon join the joyride"
Join the joyride
She says, "Hello, you fool, I love you
C'mon join the joyride"
Be a joyrider

I'll take you on a sky ride
I'm feeling like I'm spellbound
The sunshine is a lady
Who rocks you like a baby

She says, "Hello (hello) you fool (you fool) I love you (I love you)
C'mon join the joyride"
Join the joyride

Hello, you fool, I love you
C'mon join the joyride
Join the joyride

Hello, hello, you fool, I love you
C'mon, c'mon join the joyride
Be a joyrider
