What do you do, when it's all behind you
Every day, someone else reminds you
When times were sweet.
Wings on your feet, and bells on your toes
Ahh, only heaven knows....

What do you do when you've lost the feeling
Nowhere to go, you've reached the ceiling
Right behind the floor, no window, no door,
Yeah, everything's closed
Oh, only heaven knows.

Love is a treat, it's a magical feat


Illusion of the real;
You're never quite sure if it's real what you feel
Or just something, yeah, that you've felt before.
Only heaven knows.

Love is a treat, it's a magical feat, etc.
What do you do when you know you're losing
Sit on your ass and let the blues in;
Think of what you had
And how it all went bad;
You sent her a rose
And only heaven knows only heaven knows

. . .


I don't understand anymore
As I grow older
Nothing seems to be clearer
Than before, um hum

Old shoulders
Become cold shoulders
Nothing left to dream on

We're all kept in fear
We're afraid to take
Too many chances

We must keep in step
But there are just too many
Different dances

And those old shoulders
Become cold shoulders
Nothing you can lean on

. . .


Some people seem to walk on water
Some people just got it made
And never see themselves completely
Never think there's any other way

But you know
It's only a show
And you reap what you sow
In your own way

Some people really need attention
Just see what they wanna see
Never more than their reflection
In someone else's fantasy

But they know
It's only a show
And they reap what they sow
In their own way

A pretty face will find a place
It's an easy place to be
You're not allowed to change the picture
Picture people wanna see

But you know
You're only a show
And you'll reap what you sow
In your own way

. . .


Why do you still play with me? Treat me like a game
I don't need the pain, I've had enough

You say we should stay in touch, and you're there for me
But it's plain to see, you're somewhere else

Funny how the situation changes
Love can turn the best of friends into strangers

Why do you still lie to me? Why do you pretend?
Everything must end, just let me go

Funny how the situation changes
Love can turn the best of friends into strangers

Why do you still lie to me? Why do you pretend?
Everything must end, just let me go

Funny how the situation changes
Your love can turn the best of friends into strangers

Yeah, funny how the situation changes
Love can turn the best of friends into strangers

. . .


You shine a light in my darkness
I guess you showed me the way
A chance for love to fly again
A chance for come what may

You brought along the colors
When life was turning, turning gray
You opened up your paint box
And painted the blues away

But you're far away, I can't touch you
You're far away and it's too much to
Feel this way, I?ve got to be with you

But you're far away, I can't touch you
You're far away and it's too much to
Feel this way, got to be with you

You to me are special
Can't find the words to say
Only that I miss you
Miss you in every way

But you're far away, I can't touch you
You're far away and it's too much to
Feel this way, I've got to be with you

But you're far away and I can't touch you
You're far away and it's too much to
Feel this way, I've got to be with you

. . .


Another night and I can't sleep
I need to cry but I can't weep
Feeling that I've lost control
Where's my spirit, where's my very soul?

What's the future? There's no cheer
Feeling too much doubt and fear
I hide and run, I run and hide
I just can't face the world outside my dreaming

Ooh, I'm wide awake and there's you
Giving me a shake and it's true
Love is what pulls us through

It's so good when you're by my side
No longer need to run and hide
And when I'm dancing, singing along
Nothing seems to be so right or wrong

Don't you worry, don't you sigh
It's not on you that I rely
You sing love, I sing along
Celebration in this song for you

Ooh, I'm wide awake and there's you
Giving me a shake and it's true
Love is what pulls us through

Ooh, I'm wide awake and there's you
Giving me a shake and it's true
Love is what pulls us through

. . .


Couldn't get to sleep last night
Missing you so much, it hurts
Missing your company
All the things you mean to me, girl

Baby, won't you please come home
Baby, won't you please come home
Baby, won't you please come home to me

Don't have very much to say
Never was so good with words
It's only that I'm missing you
Wishing I was kissing you now

Baby, won't you please come home
Baby, won't you please come home
Baby, won't you please come home to me

Baby, won't you please come home
Baby, won't you please come home
Baby, won't you please come home to me

Baby, won't you please come home
Baby, won't you please come home
Baby, won't you please come home to me

. . .


You're safe and you're warm
Got a break from the storm
And it's visiting time in the past
And you've just reached the part
Where you're losing your heart
And your spirit is leaving you fast

A then the storm blows a scream
And it crashes your dream
Like a fist through the curtain of glass
And there's a giant of darkness
Surrounds you with fright
And the only way out is to stand up and fight

And so you shout, scream
Give me back my dream
I need one to get through the day
If it's lost and if it's gone
I won't keep hanging on
And the storm can just blow me away
Blow me away

It's a long way till dawn
And you've got to get warm
'Cause you're shivering deeply inside
So you turn on the light
Try to burn up the night
But your spirit has run off to hide

There's nowhere to run
So you wait for the sun
Nowhere to run
You wait for the sun

Shout, scream
Give me back my dream
I need one to get through the day
If it's lost and if it's gone
I wont keep hanging on
And the storm can just blow me away
Blow me away

So shout, scream
Give me back my dream
I need one to get through the day
But if it's lost and if it's gone
I won't keep hanging on
The storm, just blow me away
Blow me away

Wait for the sun
Nowhere to run
Wait for the sun
Nowhere to run

. . .


It catches fire at midnight
It leaves the room for doubt
But every thing's so well defined
There's only one way out

And all the girls are on tonight
The colored wheels all spin
You're more aware than ever before
You need a prize to win

And all the funfair's will have one
That is the usual theme
No secret Jack in this box
To help the pain within

Quiet country roads and trees
Birds singing from a cage
You understand you just lost one
You step outside your rage

And what's left to believe in
The children in the lake?
I didn't see them go under
Let's try another take

Pass me the bottle, baby
One day you'll understand
We almost make the same mistakes
And hold each other's hands

Take this particular shade of gray
Just for a change I shout
There's nothing in this fairground
That couldn't be left out

There isn't much left to show you
Maybe the tunnel of love
Who knows we'll be there forever
Just like the stars above

. . .


You run run run, you get nowhere
Oh, take it easy, oh, take it easy
A long time gone, babe, I still care
It isn't easy, it isn't easy

I still feel that it's true
Still in love with you

You push, you pull but that's not fair
Oh, take it easy, oh, take it easy
You're not here, so you must be there
It isn't easy, it isn't easy

I still feel that it's true
Still in love with you

You're running, you're running
You're running away
You're running, you're running
You're running away

You're running, you're running
You're running away
You're running, you're running
You're running away

You're running, you're running
You're running away
You're running, you're running
You're running away

You're running, you're running
You're running away
You're running, you're running
You're running away

You push, you pull but that's not fair
Oh, take it easy, take it easy
You're not here, babe, you must be there
It isn't easy, it isn't easy

I still feel that it's true
Still in love with you

You're running, you're running
You're running away
You're running, you're running
You're running away

You're running, you're running
You're running away
You're running, you're running
You're running away

You're running, you're running
You're running away
You're running, you're running
You're running away
?
