I close my eyes
Only for a moment, and the moment's gone
All my dreams
Pass before my eyes, a curiosity
Dust in the wind
All they are is dust in the wind
Same old song
Just a drop of water in an endless sea
All we do
Crumbles to the ground, though we refuse to see
Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind
Now don't hang on
Nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky
It slips away
And all your money won't another minute buy
Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind
Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind
...
When I was young, I fell in love We used to hold hands, man, that was enough (yeah) Then we grew up, started to touch Used to kiss underneath the light on the back of the bus (yeah) I know your daddy didn't like me much And he didn't believe me when I said you were the one Oh, every day, she found a way out of the window to sneak out late
She used to meet me on the Eastside In the city where the sun don't set And every day, you know that we ride Through the backstreets in a blue Corvette Baby, you know I just wanna leave tonight We can go anywhere we want Drive down to the coast, jump in the sea Just take my hand and come with me, yeah
We can do anything if we put our minds to it Take your whole life, then you put a line through it My love is yours if you're willing to take it Give me your heart 'cause I ain't gonna break it So come away, starting today Start a new life together in a different place We know that love is how all these ideas came to be So baby, run away with me
Seventeen and we got a dream to have a family A house, and everything in between And then, oh, suddenly, we turned twenty-three And now we got pressure for taking our life more seriously We got our dead-end jobs and got bills to pay Half our old friends are now our enemies And now I, I'm thinking back to when I was young Back to the day when I was falling in love

We can do anything if we put our minds to it Take your whole life, then you put a line through it My love is yours if you're willing to take it Give me your heart 'cause I ain't gonna break it So come away, starting today Start a new life together in a different place We know that love is how all these ideas came to be So baby, run away with me
Run away, now Run away, now Run away, now Run away, now Run away, now Run away, now

My love is yours if you're willing to take it Give me your heart 'cause I ain't gonna break it
You know I've been hurt before
Yeah, you know the score and I know you want more
You want me to thaw out
But you know I get ice cold, I get cold
When you don't go slow, but I know you want more
You need me to thaw out
And I know you were worth it
And I know this could work if
I could only let you in
But I'm freezing
I'm not running away
I'm not running away
I will feel the pain and stay
I'm not running again
I'm not running again
Even though I'm scared, baby
And I won't freeze you out

I'm gonna let you in
And I won't freeze you out
Like I have been

My heart is melting
So here's my heart for you to hold
Feel it beat, feel the warm blood flow through my cold
Feel it thaw out
Yeah, I've felt the fear but I push through
It's so worth loving you, you wanted more
And so I thawed out
And I know you were worth it
And I know this could work if
I could only let you in
But I was freezing

And I won't freeze you out
Like I have been

My heart is melting
You're as cold as ice
You're willing to sacrifice our love
You never take advice
Someday you'll pay the price, I know
I've seen it before
It happens all the time
You're closing the door
You leave the world behind
You're digging for gold
Yet throwing away
A fortune in feelings
But someday you'll pay
You're as cold as ice
You're willing to sacrifice our love
You want Paradise
But someday you'll pay the price
I know
I've seen it before
It happens all the time
You're closing the door
You leave the world behind
You're digging for gold
Yet throwing away
A fortune in feelings
But someday you'll pay
Cold as ice, you know that you are
Cold, (cold) as, (as) ice,
As cold as ice to me

Cold as ice I know
(You're as cold as icccce)
Oh, yes I know
(Cold as icccce)
There's a rumor here
And it's going round
Can you hear it on the street
If you realize that the pleasure lies
Between surrender and the heat
Just take a walk
on the wild side babe
And I'll meet you halfway there
And if you're talking about paradise
There's no need to say a prayer
Cause baby I'll take you there
Hey girl
Haven't you heard
Heaven is a four letter word
One touch is never enough
You'll find out when you enter the world
Heaven is a four letter word
Lose your innocence
For experience
But you've got to take the chance
Can you rock and roll
Can you get down babe
Cause it's tough for you to dance
Don't need to ride in a limousine
To feel like a millionaire
And if you're talking 'bout fantasy
It could happen anywhere
Baby I'll take you there
Hey girl
Haven't you heard
Heaven is a four letter word
One touch is never enough
You'll find out when you enter the world
Heaven is a four letter word
It's like love and kiss
And it feels like this
Baby don't wait too long
It's just me and you
We know what to do
And it's a long way til dawn
Yeah
Hey girl
Haven't you heard
Heaven is a four letter word
One touch is never enough
You'll find out when you enter the world
Heaven is a four letter word

Who knows where the cold wind blows,
I ask my friends, but, nobody knows
Who am I to believe in love,
Oh, love ain't no stranger
I looked around an' what did I see
Broken hearted people staring at me,
All searching 'cos they still believe,
Oh, love ain't no stranger
I was alone an' I needed love
So much I sacrificed all I was dreaming of,
I heard no warning, but, a heart can tell
I'd feel the emptiness of love I know so well
Love ain't no stranger,
I ain't no stranger
Love ain't no stranger,
I ain't no stranger to love, no, no, no
Can't hold the passion of a soul in need,
I look for mercy when my heart begins to bleed
I know good loving an' I'm a friend of pain,
But, when I read between the lines it's all the same
Love ain't no stranger,
I ain't no stranger
Love ain't no stranger,
I ain't no stranger to love
So who knows where the cold wind blows,
I ask my friends, but, nobody knows
Who am I to believe in love,
Lord, have mercy,
Love ain't no stranger,
I ain't no stranger
I was alone an' I needed love
So much I sacrificed all I was dreaming of,
Can't hold the passion of a soul in need,
I look for mercy when my heart begins to bleed
Love ain't no stranger,
I ain't no stranger
Love ain't no stranger,
I ain't no stranger to love
Love ain't no stranger,
Love ain't no stranger,
I ain't no stranger...
I know the way the story goes
The first part is the fun
We leave the room a little cold
To keep each other warm
Just for a minute
'Fore the bombs are hitting
And every night it turns to war
Thought we had a vision
Don't know what I see in us
No more
Cause we're halfway broken
Tryna make up
Damage already done
And it's only
One way down
Guess now we'll join the club
'Cause everyone falls so hard
And everything falls apart
But we know we
Still got heart
Here's to the broken ones
Here's to the broken ones
Broken
Here's to the broken ones
I used to know your breathing sounds
You'd sound me off to sleep
Oh, we're just lying quiet now
Both wide awake
But dreaming of that minute
'Fore the bombs were hitting
And every night it turns to war
Thought we had a vision
Don't know what I see in us
No more
Cause we're halfway broken
Tryna make up
Damage already done
And it's only
One way down
Guess now we'll join the club
'Cause everyone falls so hard
And everything falls apart
But we know we
Still got heart
Here's to the broken ones
Here's to the broken ones
Here's to the broken ones
Here's to the broken ones
Here's to the broken ones
Here's to the broken ones
Here's to the broken ones
Uhh, uhh, uhh
I was thinking 'bout her, thinking 'bout me
Thinking 'bout us, what we gon' be?
Opened my eyes, yeah
It was only just a dream
So I travel back, down that road
Will she come back? No one knows
I realize, yeah
It was only just a dream
I was at the top and now it's like I'm in the basement
Number one spot, now she found her a replacement
I swear now I can't take it
Knowing somebody's got my baby
And now you ain't around, baby I can't think
I shoulda put it down, shoulda got that ring
'Cause I can still feel it in the air
See her pretty face, run my fingers through her hair
My love of my life
My shorty, my wife
She left me, I'm tight
'Cause I knew that it just ain't right
Uhh, uhh, uhh
I was thinking 'bout her, thinking 'bout me
Thinking 'bout us, what we gon' be?
Opened my eyes, yeah
It was only just a dream
So I travel back, down that road
Will she come back? No one knows
I realize, yeah
It was only just a dream
When I be riding man I swear I see her face at every turn
Trying to get my Usher on but I can't let it Burn
And I just hope she know that she the only one I yearn - for
More and more, I miss her, when will I learn?
Didn't give her all my love, I guess now I got my payback
Now I'm in the club thinking all about my baby
Hey, she was so easy to love
But wait, I guess that love wasn't enough
I'm going through it every time that I'm alone
And now I'm missing, wishing she pick up the phone
But she made a decision that she wanted to move on
'Cause I was wrong
Uhh, uhh, uhh
I was thinking 'bout her, thinking 'bout me
Thinking 'bout us, what we gon' be?
Opened my eyes, yeah
It was only just a dream
So I travel back, down that road
Will she come back? No one knows
I realize, yeah
It was only just a dream
If you ever loved somebody put your hands up
If you ever loved somebody put your hands up
And now they're gone
And you wishing you could give them everything
Everything (heyyy)
Said if you ever loved somebody put your hands up
If you ever loved somebody put your hands up
And now they're gone
And you wishing you could give them everything
Uhh, uhh, uhh
I was thinking 'bout her, thinking 'bout me
Thinking 'bout us, what we gon' be?

So I travel back, down that road
Will she come back? No one knows
I realize, yeah
It was only just a dream
Sun is going down, time is running out
No one else around but me
Steady losing light
Steady losing my mind
Moving shadows and grinding teeth
Without you, there ain't no place for me to hide
Without you, there's no way I can sleep tonight
What I'd do for a little bit of peace and quiet
Without you I keep
Slippin' into bad dreams
Where there's no you and I
No sound when I cry
I love you and I need you to set me free
From all of these
Bad dreams
Waiting on the other side
No sound when I cry
I love you and I need you to set me free
From all of these, all of these
(Ooh) Bad dreams
(Ooh) All of these, baby, please
Come around
Help me settle down
Hellish habits can cloud my head
What you waiting for
Something physical
I can't do this by myself
Without you, there ain't no place for me to hide
Without you, there's no way I can sleep tonight
What I'd do for a little bit of peace and quiet
Without you I keep
Slippin' into bad dreams
Where there's no you and I
No sound when I cry
I love you and I need you to set me free
From all of these
Bad dreams
Waiting on the other side
No sound when I cry
I love you and I need you to set me free
From all of these, all of these
(Ooh) Bad dreams (bad dreams), baby, please
(Ooh) All of these (baby, please), all of these
Vai minha tristeza E diz a ela Que sem ela não pode ser Diz-lhe numa prece Que ela regresse Porque eu não posso mais sofrer Chega de saudade A realidade É que sem ela não há paz Não há beleza É só tristeza E a melancolia Que não sai de mim Não sai de mim, não sai Mas se ela voltar, se ela voltar Que coisa linda, que coisa louca Pois há menos peixinhos a nadar no mar Do que os beijinhos Que eu darei na sua boca Dentro dos meus braços Os abraços Hão de ser milhões de abraços Apertado assim Colado assim Calado assim Abraços e beijinhos E carinhos sem ter fim Que é pra acabar com esse negócio De você viver sem mim Não quero mais esse negócio De você longe de mim Vamos deixar desse negócio De você viver sem mim
Quando eu me encontrava preso Na cela de uma cadeia Foi que eu vi pela primeira vez As tais fotografias Em que apareces inteira Porém lá não estavas nua E sim, coberta de nuvens
Terra, terra Por mais distante O errante navegante Quem jamais te esqueceria?
Ninguém supõe a morena Dentro da estrela azulada Na vertigem do cinema Mando um abraço pra ti Pequenina Como se eu fosse o saudoso poeta E fosses à Paraíba
Terra, terra Por mais distante O errante navegante Quem jamais te esqueceria?
Eu estou apaixonado Por uma menina, terra Signo de elemento terra Do mar se diz: Terra à vista Terra para o pé, firmeza Terra para a mão, carícia Outros astros lhe são guia
Terra, terra Por mais distante O errante navegante Quem jamais te esqueceria?
Eu sou um leão de fogo Sem ti me consumiria A mim mesmo eternamente E de nada valeria Acontecer de eu ser gente E gente é outra alegria Diferente das estrelas
Terra, terra Por mais distante O errante navegante Quem jamais te esqueceria?
De onde nem tempo, nem espaço Que a força mande coragem Pra gente te dar carinho Durante toda a viagem Que realizas no nada Através do qual carregas O nome da tua carne
Terra, terra Por mais distante O errante navegante Quem jamais te esqueceria?
Terra, terra Por mais distante O errante navegante Quem jamais te esqueceria?
Terra, terra Por mais distante O errante navegante Quem jamais te esqueceria?
Nas sacadas dos sobrados Da velha São Salvador Há lembranças de donzelas Do tempo do Imperador Tudo, tudo na Bahia Faz a gente querer bem A Bahia tem um jeito
Terra, terra Por mais distante O errante navegante Quem jamais te esqueceria?
Sexo verbal não faz meu estilo Palavras são erros e os erros são seus Não quero lembrar que eu erro também Um dia, pretendo tentar descobrir Porque é mais forte quem sabe mentir Não quero lembrar que eu minto também
Eu sei Eu sei
Feche a porta do seu quarto Porque se toca o telefone, pode ser alguém Com quem você quer falar por horas e horas e horas A noite acabou, talvez tenhamos que fugir sem você Mas não, não vá agora, quero honras e promessas Lembranças e histórias, somos pássaro novo longe do ninho
Et si tu crois que tous ses rêves t'appartiennent, tu vis sans sommeil (tu vis sans sommeil) Elle vient de là où tous les gens déçus saignent, elle venait du ciel Elle venait du ciel, une fée, une magicienne Elle venait du ciel, une fée, une magicienne

Yeah, je tombe, donne-moi des ailes Dans les décombres de ma vie je cherche un p'tit bout de ciel Tu pleurais souvent en t'imaginant notre vie en mieux On ferme les yeux quand on meurt mais seule la mort nous ouvre les yeux Yeah, premier couplet, dernier souffle Même avec une tonne de parfum mes sapes puent la bouffe Elles sentent l'huile et la friture J'suis né à Trappes, ça sent la biture, la piqûre Si seulement le voisin du haut ne tapait pas sa femme Si seulement l'voisin du bas n'vendait pas d'la came Si seulement Amidou n'avait pas pris cette moto Si seulement Mourad nous avait pas quittés trop tôt J'ai mal et souvent j'les vois dans mes rêves Aucun tatouage sur ma peau je reste en "Adam et Eve" Mal dans ma tête elle me donnait des ailes Quand t'as pas connu l'vinaigre comment apprécier le miel ?
Et je repense à toi les yeux fermés J'attends que ton souffle vienne m'emporter J'ai les mains vides et le coeur avide de toi, de toi Si tu savais à quel point je t'aimais Otage de mes deux bras à jamais J'ai les mains vides et le coeur avide de toi, de toi

Woke up falling
Press into your side
Your body's an ocean
Pull me into your tides
All I see is you
All I see is you
All I see is you
All I see is you
All I see is you
All I see is you
In everything I do
All I see is you
Fall in deeper
Melt beneath your skin
Your breath tied against me
How do I breathe you in
All I see is you
All I see is you
All I see is you
All I see is you
All I see is you
All I see is you
In everything I do
All I see is you
All I see is you
All I see is you
In everything I do
All I see is you
Although the things you've done, I wouldn't criticize
I guess you had your way
You see, I gotta make you understand
I know it sounds a foolish thing to say
But it don't matter, baby
'Cause today's another day
You shine a little love on my life
You shine a little love on my life
You shine a little love on my life
And let me see
Remember, tonight we're gonna run 'til dawn
Remember, tonight we're gonna say
We'll never stop, we got a good thing goin' on
I know you've heard it all before
But I really need you, darlin'
Every day, I need you more
You shine a little love on my life
You shine a little love on my life
You shine a little love on my life
And let me see
Can you understand (yes, I understand)
Can you feel it's right (I know it is)
Will you be the same (I'll do it all again)
Hu, hu, hu-ha, hu-ha, hu-ha, hu-ha, hu
It's been a year now and it's gettin' so much better
Came home without a word
Though everybody said you'll soon forget her
They couldn't see and they just didn't understand
And lookin' in the mirror
There were fools at either hand
You shine a little love on my life
You shine a little love on my life
You shine a little love on my life
And let me see
Can you understand (yes, I understand)
Can you feel it's right (I know it is)
Will you be the same (I'll do it all again)
Hu-ah-aah-aah-aah-aah-hu-aah, hu
How many days had I been waitin' there to tell you
I really can't believe
We're walkin' out into the world tonight
We'll do it all again until the break of light
And the feeling in your heart
Will soon be shinin' in your eyes
You shine a little love on my life
You shine a little love on my life
You shine a little love on my life
And let me see
You shine a little love on my life (Shine on me)
You shine a little love on my life (Whoa, whoa, whoa)
You shine a little love on my life
And let me see
You shine a little love on my life (Shine)
You shine a little love on my life (E.L.O.)
You shine a little love on my life
And let me see
Loving you
Isn't the right thing to do
How can I ever change things that I feel?
If I could
Baby I'd give you my world
How can I
When you won't take it from me?
You can go your own way
Go your own way
You can call it another lonely day
You can go your own way
Go your own way
Tell me why
Everything turned around
Packing up
Shacking up's all you wanna do
If I could
Baby I'd give you my world
Open up
Everything's waiting for you
You can go your own way
Go your own way
You can call it another lonely day
You can go your own way
Go your own way
Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Remember me to one who lives there
He once was a true love of mine
Tell him to make me a cambric shirt
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Without no seams nor needle work
Then he'll be a true love of mine
Tell him to find me an acre of land
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Between salt water and the sea strands
Then he'll be a true love of mine
Tell him to reap it with a sickle of leather
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
And gather it all in a bunch of heather
Then he'll be a true love of mine
Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Remember me to one who lives there
He once was a true love of mine
When in the springtime of the year
When the trees are crowned with leaves
When the ash and oak, and the birch and yew
Are dressed in ribbons fair
When owls call the breathless moon
In the blue veil of the night
The shadows of the trees appear
Amidst the lantern light
We've been rambling all the night
And some time of this day
Now returning back again
We bring a garland gay
Who will go down to those shady groves
And summon the shadows there
And tie a ribbon on those sheltering arms
In the springtime of the year
The songs of birds seem to fill the wood
That when the fiddler plays
All their voices can be heard
Long past their woodland days
We've been rambling all the night
And some time of this day
Now returning back again
We bring a garland gay
And so they linked their hands and danced
Round in circles and in rows
And so the journey of the night descends
When all the shades are gone
"A garland gay we bring you here
And at your door we stand
It is a sprout well budded out
The work of Our Lord's hand"
We've been rambling all the night
And some time of this day
Now returning back again
We bring a garland gay
We've been rambling all the night
And some time of this day
Now returning back again
We bring a garland gay
If God had a name
What would it be and would you call it to his face
If you were faced with him in all his glory
What would you ask if you had just one question
And yeah, yeah, God is great
Yeah, yeah, God is good
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
What if God was one of us
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make his way home
If God had a face
What would it look like and would you want to see
If seeing meant that you would have to believe
In things like heaven and in Jesus and the saints
And all the prophets
And yeah, yeah, God is great
Yeah, yeah, God is good
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
What if God was one of us
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make his way home
Just trying to make his way home
Back up to heaven all alone
Nobody calling on the phone
'Cept for the Pope, maybe, in Rome
Yeah, yeah, God is great
Yeah, yeah, God is good
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
What if God was one of us
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make his way home
Just trying to make his way home
Like a holy rolling stone
Back up to heaven all alone
Just trying to make his way home
Nobody calling on the phone
'Cept for the Pope, maybe, in Rome
