What are you thinking?
Didn't you know?
Maybe you listened
But didn't want to let go
So what were the answers you were hoping to find?
We're all serving the master, and he's robbing us blind
But take it from me, hold on, coz it gets so much better
And you've got to believe you're so close,
Coz there's more than one way to Heaven
You've got to

Rise,
Don't just stand there open your eyes
Shame shame, shame on you
You've got to
Try
Don't just sit there wasting time
Shame, shame, shame,
Shame, shame, shame on you.
Shame on you.

You didn't get to the party, missed the start of the show
An emotional virgin, 10 times in a row
It's all just a wind-up, but I'm starting to learn
That the sooner you sign up, the quicker the worm turns
So take it from me, hold on
Coz it gets so much better
And you've got to believe, you're so close, and there's
More than one way to Heaven
You've got to

Rise,
Don't just stand there open your eyes
Shame shame, shame on you
You've got to
Try
Don't just sit there wasting time
Shame, shame, shame,
Shame, shame, shame on you.
Shame on you.

Sin, sin, sin
That's what they spin, spin, spin,
But if you don't rise up, now that you can, everyone, woman man and child
On all sides, you've got to

Rise,
Don't just stand there open your eyes
Shame, shame, shame on you
You've got to
Try
Don't just sit there wasting time
Shame, shame, shame,
Shame, shame, shame on you.
You've got nothing to lose

Eve and Adam's only child
Body that goes on miles
Heaven only knows that real
Can be better than the fantasy
And her eyes shouldn't have blurred my vision I know that she
She

Was a beauty queen
And if you are gonna cry, don't cry for me
Cos from here on the ground
The truth I have found
Is we all fall down
Yes we all fall down

Sidney told me something once
When he came and sat down next to me
He said "Beware of the beautiful ones
Because they never let you rest in peace."
But her eyes shouldn't have blurred my vision I know that she
Oh she

Was a beauty queen
And if you are gonna cry, don't cry for me
Cos from here on the ground
The truth I have found
Is we all fall down
Yes we all fall down

Taken in, by the sweetest sin
Milk and honey tasting skin
's why she always wins

She's a beauty queen
And if you were gonna cry, don't cry for me
Cos from here on the ground
The truth I have found
Is we all fall down
Yes we all fall down
Yes we all fall down
We can all fall down

You sit and you stare and you wait and you wonder
You think "Maybe it's me and I'm being a fool."
You start to believe it's a curse that you're under
And you're just a doll for a girl who is cruel
With a pin

So let me out
Or let me in
And tell me how, we can win
Cause I really wanna know now
Before I begin
To let you go
(To let you go)
So let me know

I'd rather be wandering hungry and homeless
Than here in the warmth of a silent defeat
You've gotta be honest with me and be ruthless
‘stead of shifting uncomfortably there in your seat
And your skin

Ch 2

And who'd've thought I'd have the strength to say
"Let me out or let me in"
But as the words are pouring from my mouth
I wanna say them again, and again and again

So let me out
Or let me in
And tell me how, we can win
Cause I really wanna know now
Before I begin
To let you go
(To let you go)
Oh
Let me out, or let me in,
Oh no no
And tell me how
We can win
Oh no I really wanna know now
Before I begin
Oh to let you go, to let you go
Let me know

When you're lost, and you're lonely
And your only way is up
When your day rises from you
Like a mountain to its top
Look beside you, and you will find me
I will guide you, when your will is gone

So carry on, carry on, carry on
What ever comes, and however painful, however long
When your hope has been denied you
I will walk beside you, carry on

All my life has been a battle
Fought within me with myself
You always know what the truth is
But the trick is to know yourself

I looked around me in the darkness
And you found me when there was no one else

So carry on, carry on, carry on
Whatever comes, and however painful, however long
When your hope has been denied you
I will walk beside you, carry on

Let me count the ways that I love you
Let me count the days that we have known
Show me a place to be with you
Cos I can't do this on my own, on my own

So carry on, carry on, carry on
What ever comes, and however painful, however long
When your hope has been denied you
I will walk beside you, carry on

So carry on, carry on, carry on
Whatever comes, and however painful, however long
When your hope has been denied you
I will walk beside you, carry on

When your hope has been denied you
I will walk beside you, carry on

Sitting in my bedroom
Thinking of a love gone
Wondering why it went wrong
Over again

You didn't really know me
And it feels like you owe me
But I guess at least you showed me
Not to do it again

Coz I've been knocked out,
Found out
About time that it turned around
Coz I've got to find the one thing that will get me over you, so

One day, you've gotta find me an angel
Someone to save me
Someone to put me back together again
One day, you've got to send me an angel
Coz I'm back at the beginning but I'm holding out for more
This time

I'm tired of being lonely
I'm getting to it slowly
But I'm running out of patience
Running out of strength

There's got to be a reason
For everything I'm feeling
But I think I've learned my lesson
I'm never doing it again

Coz I've been knocked out
Found out
About time that it turned around
Coz I've got to find the one thing that will get me over you, so

One day, you've gotta find me an angel
Someone to save me
Someone to put me back together again
One day, you've got to send me an angel

Coz I'm back at the beginning but I'm
Holding out for more
This time

I'm not unbreakable
But what I'm trying to say
Is I don't think I am capable
Of doing this alone so

One day, you've gotta find me an angel
Someone to save me
Someone to put me back together again
One day, you've got to send me an angel
Coz I'm back at the beginning but I'm
Holding out for more
This time

No I don't mind if you think I should grow my hair
And no I don't mind if you pick out the clothes I wear
But know I can keep my head when all around me are losing theirs
Because

I am who I am, and you can't change me
I've done what I can, now I'll stand my ground
You're tying my hands if you re-arrange me
It all falls down,
It all falls down

Why when you dream do you see me as something I'm not?
Why don't you wake up and see all the good things you've got?
A heart isn't made out of clay
Not something you shape with your hands
Understand

I am who I am, and you can't change me
I've done what I can, now I'll stand my ground
You're tying my hands if you re-arrange me
It all falls down,
It all falls down

Is the reason you ask me to change so that you'll stay the same?
Well I'm sorry if I keep disappointing you again and again
But

I am who I am, and you can't change me
I've done what I can, now I'll stand my ground
You're tying my hands if you re-arrange me
It all falls down,
It all falls down
It all falls down
It all falls down
It all falls down
I am who I am

Shouting down an answerphone
A thousand miles from you
Why's the world a combat zone
That I'm a stranger to?
And I don't know where to go
I don't know what to do
Tell me how I find my way back home

Absence makes the heart grow cold,
No matter what they say
Especially when the one you want is half the world away
And I don't know where to go
I don't know what to do
I don't know where to go
I don't know what to do
I don't know where to go
And I don't know what to do
Someone tell me how I get back home
To you..

Watching me, watching you
Watching me touch your face
Touching me, touching me
With your grace

I can't sleep
Cos without you
Life is a bad dream

Nobody knows how it feels
To hear the slightest answer
From your lips straight to me
Like the flight of a dancer
Born to move coz without you
Life is a bad dream

There's no way you can leave now in the night
And I don't want to believe now that you might
go
No,
So open your eyes, open your eyes
I need you wide awake now
Come on get up, come on get up
Cos I'm having a breakdown
Show me your love, show me your love
Tell me that you'll never leave me

Cover my ears, cover my eyes
Don't tell me the bad news
I'll go for years, wondering why
Was there something I could do?
That's not right, that's not true
Tonight is a bad dream

There's no way you can leave now in the night
And I'm starting to believe now that you might
go
No,
So open your eyes, open your eyes
I need you wide awake now
Come on get up, come on get up
Coz I'm having a breakdown
Show me your love, show me your love
Tell me that you'll never leave me

All I own now, all I own now
Take it
All I own now, all I own now
Take it

Open your eyes, open your eyes
I need you wide awake now
Come on get up, come on get up
Cos I'm having a breakdown
Show me your love, show me your love
Tell me that you'll never leave me

So open your eyes, open your eyes
I need you wide awake now
Come on get up, come on get up
Cos I'm having a breakdown
Show me your love, show me your love
Tell me that you'll never leave me

I used to be a dreamer
Who couldn't fall asleep
Trying to find an answer
A reason to believe
Living in between worlds
This one and the next
Trying to make my mind up
Which one of them is best

And every time I think I've got it right
It just slips away from me
But my conscience always catches up eventually
I've gotta learn to live
In a different way
A little for tomorrow
A little for today

Crossed seven different oceans
Coz I'm looking for escape
Tired of emotions
Getting in the way
Trying to make my mind up
If it's better just to
Dream on
Running with my eyes shut
Somewhere in between

But every time I think I've got it right
It just slips away again
Maybe I'll just shut my eyes and count to ten
I've gotta learn to live
In a different way
A little for tomorrow
A little for today

I used to be a dreamer
Who couldn't fall asleep
Trying to find the answer
A reason to believe..
I've gotta learn to live
In a different way
A little for tomorrow
A little for today
I've gotta learn to live

What if life wasn't long
And everybody got just a single moment?
If you wasted the moment alone
Spent your while time thinking: "Why should I need love?"
Then look above to the sky and beyond
Cos you don't know what you've got ‘til it's gone, believe me

Everybody needs a lover sometimes
And you were mine
My God by another name
Everybody needs a lover sometimes
And you were mine
My shelter from the rain outside

What if life was a car
And you didn't really know how to start it
Would you sit in your car like a clown
Or get out and walk to the nearest crowded bar?
And kiss a mouth, make it smile and be proud
That at least you had a good time for a while?
Believe me

Everybody needs a lover sometimes
And you were mine
My God by another name
Everybody needs a lover sometimes
And you were mine
My shelter from the rain outside

And if you hold on to me now
And never let go
Then I guess at least we'll know
The sense that it all made, oh

Cos everybody needs a lover sometimes
And you were mine
My God by another name
Everybody needs a lover sometimes
And you were mine
My shelter from the rain outside

But you stayed

(Instrumental)

A second, a minute, an hour, a day and its gone
Little by little it fritters away try as you may you can never replace it
A moment of beauty you stumble upon,
As long as you treasure whatever it is, whatever it is could never be wasted

So if we all turn to dust
Better to've loved and lost
Cos everything has a cost

So if you're gonna spend time
Spend it upon me
Spend it up on me
Just give me your time
I don't want your money

I'd crawl then I'd walk then I'd run but then I'd stumble and fall
Somewhere between the love and the lust
I tried my best I was maladjusted
And I'm not saying that I know it all
Maybe I'm a little more self-aware
Still get scared but I've learned to trust it

So when it comes to us
I've weighed up all the odds
I bet that this is love

So if you're gonna spend time
Spend it upon me
Spend it up on me
Just give me your time
Don't take it from me

I know hard it is
Getting it right
At a time like this
So you'd better believe
Believe
How right it could be

So if you're gonna spend time
Spend it upon me
Spend it up on me
Just give me your time
I don't want your money
