Heaven, I'm in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek
Heaven, I'm in heaven
And the cares that hung around me through the week
Seem to vanish like a gambler's lucky streak
When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek
Oh I love to climb a mountain
And reach the highest peak
But it doesn't thrill me half as much
As dancing cheek to cheek
Oh I love to go out fishing
In a river or a creek
But I don't enjoy it half as much
As dancing cheek to cheek
Come on and dance with me
I want my arms about you
That charms about you
Will carry me through...
Right up to heaven, I'm in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek...
Life is a moment in space
When the dream is gone
Its a lonelier place
I kiss the morning goodbye
But down inside you know
We never know why
The road is narrow and long
When eyes meet eyes
And the feeling is strong
I turn away from the wall
I stumble and fall
But I give you it all...
Chorus:
I am a woman in love
And I do anything
To get you into my world
And hold you within
Its a right I defend
Over and over again
What do I do?
With you eternally mine
In love there is
No measure of time
We planned it all at the start
That you and i
Would live in each others hearts
We may be oceans away
You feel my love
I hear what you say
No truth is ever a lie
I stumble and fall
But I give you it all
Repeat chorus
I am a woman in love
And Im talking to you
Do you know how it feels?
What a woman can do
Its a right
That I defend over and over again......
Lights - Drive my soul
Seems somebody put out the moon
Now the road is a minefield
I can’t follow the way she moves
I can’t see past the shadows
You make the darkness disappear
I feel found when you stay near
I know where I am when you are here
My way becomes so clear
When you're gone
Will I lose control?
You're the only road I know
You show me where to go
Who will drive my soul?
Seems somebody burned up the signs
I can’t expect the hard curves
There's no borders
There are no lines
How can I know where to turn?
You make the street lights reappear
I feel bright when you stand near
I know what I am when you are here
My place becomes so clear
When you're gone
Will I lose control?
You’re the only road I know
You show me where to go
Who will drive my soul?
When a man loves a woman
Can't keep his mind on nothing else
He'll trade the world
For the good thing he's found
If she's bad he can't see it
She can do no wrong
Turn his back on his best friend
If he put her down
When a man loves a woman
Spend his very last dime
Tryin' to hold on to what he needs
He'd give up all his comfort
Sleep out in the rain
If she said that's the way it ought to be
Well, this man loves a woman
I gave you everything I had
Tryin' to hold on to your precious love
Baby, please don't treat me bad
When a man loves a woman
Down deep in his soul
She can bring him such misery
If she plays him for a fool
He's the last one to know
Lovin' eyes can't ever see
When a man loves a woman
He can do no wrong
He can never own some other girl
Yes when a man loves a woman
I know exactly how he feels
'Cause baby, baby, baby, you're my world
Oh, my love, my darling,
I've hungered for your touch a long, lonely time,
Time goes by so slowly and time can do so much.
Are you still mine?
I need your love, I need your love, God speed your love to me.
Lonely rivers flow to the sea, to the sea
To the open arms of the sea
Lonely rivers sigh, 'Wait for me, wait for me'
'I'll be coming home, wait for me!'
Are you still mine?
I need your love, I need your love, God speed your love to me
I cannot say ‘oh sweetness’
like he could
and I cannot play a lullaby
like it should
I’ll give you all night movie marathon
and a triple espresso so you can stay awake
it might be late - but
it’s never too late for that lovin'
my sexy babe
I used to cry but now I have to laugh
because she’s got that torment
to a fine art
smart like a foxy
and craf-ty-as-a-cat
i’m looking up
as i’m lying on my back
bite the beast
if i want a big piece of the pie
but she’s taken the feast
in the blink of an eye
I can-not-jus-ti-fy
what’s going on
- it feels so right
when it seems so wrong
like a plot hatched
in the sweet spot of that trap
- ask what she’s schemes
she say ‘oh this and that’
then she snaps like a camera
in black with a flash
puts the drum in the drama
the hand in the clap
she’s a map with no bearings
attached - no
safety-in-this-match
fire you can’t catch
then zap I was struck by that
bolt before dawn
then by breakfast honey
we was signed and sworn
I’ll give you all night movie marathon
and a triple expresso so you can stay awake
it might be late - but
it’s never too late for that lovin
my sexy babe
something always telling me
‘save prayers before dawn’
cos what happens when I’m with you
makes me shake my head then smile and yawn
I’m worn out but I’m beaming
and it seems that we are dreamy
as we head out through that strange old morning door
This game is no game
but it’s played all the same
and I love it even
if it makes me deranged
it’s like tears in the rain
burning spears in my brain
cause me pain sometimes
make me drained
but I cannot complain
- mad the ugly good and bad
had some happy with my sad
and some tricks in my bag
when it’s up run a muck
like a bull that just bucked
when it’s down it’s a drag
and you fight with no partner to tag
- at times I would dive in the sea
to escape from the rising
and crashing malea
drink tea with a fat fish
and find a golden key
then rise to the surface
and open my baby
and maybe she’d say ‘we are crazy’
the two of us together like Melbourne weather
be like balls in a maze see
we rolling along in obscurity
but when we meet in the middle
say mmm it’s a treat
I’ll give you all night movie marathon
and a triple espresso so you can stay awake
- it might be late but
it’s never too late for that lovin
my sexy babe
something always telling me
‘save your prayers before dawn’
cos what happens when I’m with you
makes me shake my head then smile and yawn
I’m worn out but I’m beaming
and it seems that we are dreamy
as we head out through that strange old morning door
I used to laugh
but now I have to cry
because today my baby tell me
that it’s time to say goodbye
ask her ‘why what did I do?
You and me we were so sly’
then she sigh ‘that’s true
we were slinky through and through
but it’s sad and it’s set
I get high then I get depressed
and I guess when we’re together
it’s that happy kind of stress’
touching left right down
kiss my finger I reply
‘I can’t deny you were the best
and by the best I mean the mess you made
I must confess I never
met-a-more sexy maid
that smell like me
so bless your wayward ways
and loving craze and crazy days
and things you’d say
and looks you made
you’re not the queen of hearts
you’re the queen of spades
and you’d take my breath away
any day that way
so anyway is this the end?
Is this the fifth act of the play?
I kissed her then I turned
and was about to walk away
when I sense a little tingle
that begin down from below
then I hear her with a whisper
‘you’re the most gullible man I know’
Love, love is a verb
Love is a doing word
Feathers on my breath
Gentle impulsion
Shakes me makes me lighter
Feathers on my breath
Teardrop on the fire
Feathers on my breath
Nine night of matter
Black flowers blossom
Feathers on my breath
Black flowers blossom
Feathers on my breath
Teardrop on the fire
Feathers on my breath
Water is my eye
Most faithful mirror
Feathers on my breath
Teardrop on the fire of a confession
Feathers on my breath
Most faithful mirror
Feathers on my breath
Leave me out with the waste
This is not what I do
It's the wrong kind of place
To be thinking of you
It's the wrong time
For somebody new
It's a small crime
And I've got no excuse
Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright?
If you don't shoot it
how am I supposed to
hold it
Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright
With you?
Leave me out with the waste
This is not what I do
It's the wrong kind of place
To be cheating on you
It's the wrong time
She's pulling me through
It's a small crime
And I've got no excuse
Is that alright?
I give my gun away
when it's loaded
Is that alright?
If you dont shoot it,
how am I supposed to
hold it
Is that alright?
I give my gun away
when it's loaded
Is that alright
Is that alright with you?
Is that alright?
I give my gun away
when it's loaded
Is that alright?
If you don't shoot it,
how am I supposed to
hold it
Is that alright?
If I give my gun away
when it's loaded
Is that alright
Is that alright with you?
Is that alright?
Is that alright?
Is that alright with you?
Is that alright?
Is that alright?
Is that alright with you?
Same old story is back again
She's not a lover, she's just a friend
I'm sick and tired for you to blame on me
Now you think it's funny
Now you wanna spend your money on klix
But you forgot when you were down
That I was around
Call my lover, hang up, call again
What in the world is happening
Listen in, but don't yell at me
Isn't it ironic all you wanna do is smoke chronic
Boy, you forgot when you were down
Who was around
I can't eat, I can't sleep anymore
Waiting for love to walk through the door
I wish I didn't miss you anymore
Memories don't live like people do
I'm sick for ever believing you
Wish you'd bring back the man I knew
Was good to me, oh Lord
Everytime you say you're coming
Boy, you disappoint me, honey
How well you forgot when you were down
And I was around
I can't eat, I can't sleep anymore
Waiting for love to walk through the door
I wish I didn't miss you anymore
I can't eat, I can't sleep anymore
Waiting for love to walk through the door
I wish I didn't miss you anymore
One of these days, it's gonna happen to you
Missing a love like I'm missing you, babe yeah yeah
One of these days, when your dreams come true
That's the one that's gonna do it to you
Oh oh oh, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah
I can't eat, I can't sleep anymore
Waiting for love to walk through the door
I wish I didn't miss you anymore
I can't eat, I can't sleep anymore
Waiting for love to walk through the door
I wish I didn't miss you anymore
I won't pretend that I intend to stop living
I won't pretend I'm good at forgiving
But I can't hate you
Although I have tried
I still really really love you
Love is stronger than pride
I still really really love you
I won't pretend that I intend to stop living
I won't pretend I'm good at forgiving
But I can't hate you
Although I have tried
I still really really love you
Love is stronger than pride
I still really really love you
Sitting here wasting my time
Would be like
Waiting for the sun to rise
It's all too clear things come and go
Sitting here waiting for you
Would be like waiting for winter
It's gonna be cold
There may even
Be snow
I still really really love you
Love is stronger than pride
I still really really love you
Love is stronger
I still really love you
Love is stronger than pride
Don't the hours grow shorter as the days go by?
We never get to stop and open our eyes.
One minute you're waiting for the sky to fall
Next you're dazzled by the beauty of it all.
Lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time
These fragile bodies of touch and taste
This fragrant skin, this hair like lace
Spirits open to thrust of grace,
Never a breath you can't afford to waste.
Lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time
When you're lovers in a dangerous time,
Sometimes you're made to feel as if your loves a crime. Nothing worth having comes without some kind of fight
You gotta kick at the darkness till it bleeds daylight.
Lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time
So put a spanner in the works
of your mind
It's easier to work,
But I don't mind,
You're better in defeat
so just don't try
To take away all the things
so dear in my life
I have to break down all
the corners of the world
Don't heap this praise on me,
I know I don't deserve i
What's all this I see?
You're leaving right beside me,
And I miss you, and I need you
I do
Don't go and take my love,
I won't let you, I'm saying please don't go
So leave your lover now,
it's your turn
Gonna see your mother now,
I hope she's okay
You're better in defeat
so let us not try
To take away all the things so dear in our lives
I have to break down all the corners of the world
Don't heap this praise on me,
I know I don't deserve it
What's all this I see?
Yeah you're leaving right beside me,
And I miss you, and I need you
I do
But don't go and take my love,
I won't let you, I'm saying please don't go
All of my life,
trying to understand
All of my life,
trying to hold a hand
I have to break down all,
the corners of this world
Don't heap this praise on me,
I know I don't deserve it
What's all this I see?
Yeah you're leaving right beside me,
And I miss you, and I love you
And that's true
Well he was in Thailand based.
She was an airforce wife.
He used to fly weekends, it was the easy life.
But then it turned around, and he began to change.
She didn't wonder then, she didn't think it strange.
But then he got a call, he had to leave that night.
He couln't say too much, but it would be alright.
He didn't need to pack, they'd meet the next night.
He had a job to do, flying to Cambodia.
And as the nights passed by, she tried to trace the past.
The way he used to look, the way he used to laugh.
I guess she'll never know, what got inside his soul.
She couldn't make it out, just couldn't take it all.
He had the saddest eyes the girl had ever seen.
He used to cry some nights, as though he lived a dream.
And as she held him close, he used to search her face.
As though she knew the truth, lost inside Cambodia.
But then a call came through, they said he'd soon be home.
She had to pack a case and they would make a rendez-vous.
But now the year has passed and not a single word and
all the love she knew has disappeared out in the haze.
And now the years have passed without a single word.
But there is only one thing left I know for sure,
She won't see his face again.
A cigarette that bares a lipstick's traces
An airline ticket to romantic places
And still my heart has wings
These foolish things remind me of you.
A tinkling piano in the next apartment
Those stumblin'words That told you what my heart meant
A fairground's painted swings
These foolish things
remind me of you.
You came,
You saw,
You conquered me
When you did that to me
I knew somehow this had to be
The winds of March That made my heart a dancer
A telephone that rings But who's to answer
Oh, how the ghost of you clings
These foolish things
Remind me of you
First daffodils
And long excited cables
And candle lights
on little corner tables
And still my heart has wings
These foolish things remind me of you
The park at evening
When the bell has sounded
The Isle de France
With all the gulls around it
The beauty that is spring
These foolish things
Remind me of you
How strange,
How sweet,
To find you still,
These things are dear to me
They seem to bring you near to me
The sigh of midnight trains
At empty stations
Silk stockings thrown aside
Dance invitations
Oh how the ghost of you clings
These foolish things
Remind me of you
Gardenia perfume
Lingering on a pillow
Wild strawberries
Only seven francs a kilo
And still my heart has wings,
These foolish things,
Remind me of you
The smile of Garbo
And the scent of roses
The waiters whistling
As the last bar closes
The song that Crosby sings
These foolish things
Remind me of you
How strange
How sweet
To find you still
These things are dear to me
They seem to bring you near to me
The scent of smoldering leaves
The wail of steamers
Two lovers on the street
Who walk like dreamers
Oh how the ghost of you clings
These foolish things
Remind me of you.
I gave you all the love I got
I gave you more than I could give
I gave you love
I gave you all that I have inside
And you took my love
You took my love
Didn't I tell you
What I believe
Somebody say that
A love like that won't last
Didn't I give you
All that I've got to give baby
I gave you all the love I got
I gave you more than I could give
I gave you love
I gave you all that I have inside
And you took my love
You took my love
I keep crying
I keep trying for you
There's nothing like you and I baby
This is no ordinary love
No ordinary love
This is no ordinary love
No ordinary love
When you came my way
You brightened every day
With your sweet smile
Didn't I tell you
What I believe
Did somebody say that
A love like that won't last
Didn't I give you
All that I've got to give baby
This is no ordinary love
No ordinary love
This is no ordinary love
No ordinary love
I keep crying
I keep trying for you
There's nothing like you and I baby
This is no ordinary love
No ordinary love
This is no ordinary love
No ordinary love
Keep trying for you
Keep crying for you
Keep flying for you
Keep flying I'm falling
I'm falling
Keep trying for you
Keep crying for you
Keep flying for you
Keep flying and I'm falling
and I'm falling
You were from the North, I was from the South
We were from opposite places, different towns
But I knew it was good and you knew it was too.
So we moved together like a ball and chain
Mind becoming two halves of the same
It was real, but in the shadows it grew.
Cos you’ve got a secret don’t ya babe?
I would’ve shout aloud and broken through
I would’ve given it all to belong to you
But there were different plans and different rules
You said “were I’m from is a lock and key
If you’d be so kind as to follow me
I will show you the way to the rest of my sins”
Cos you’ve got a secret don’t ya babe?
Yeah you, you got a secret don’t ya babe?
And I should know
Yeah I should know
So this room was damp where your sins laid
There was that smell in the air of an old place
That hadn’t seen much daylight in years
And you threw me down, said “ If you don’t mind
I’m gonna leave you here to night time
Then we can do what we want my baby out of the spot light”
Cos you’ve got a secret don’t ya babe?
Yeah you, you got a secret don’t ya babe?
And I should know
Yeah I should know
For I am your secret aren’t I babe?
Yeah I am your secret aren’t I babe?
Aren’t I babe?
Glen Hansard - Leave
I can't wait forever is all that you said
Before you stood up
And you won't disappoint me
I can do that myself
But I'm glad that you've come
Now if you don't mind
Leave, leave,
And free yourself at the same time
Leave, leave,
I don't understand, you've already gone
And I hope you feel better
Now that it's out
What took you so long
And the truth has a habit
Of falling out of your mouth
But now that it's come
If you don't mind
Leave, leave,
And please yourself at the same time
Leave, leave,
Let go of my hand
You said what you have to now
Leave, leave,
Let go of my hand
You said what you came to now
Leave, leave,
Leave, leave,
Let go of my hand
You said what you have to now
Leave, leave...
Let's take the train to anywhere
I wanna feel the wind in my hair with you.
Let's tell them all, that soon they'll know
how very wrong they were to think we'd never go,
and if you tell me yours I'll tell you mine
and we will clean the cobwebs out of one another's minds.
Don't ever say you've tried to leave me in this life
Don't ever say you've tried for the last time.
We'll get a house where the trees hang low and pretty little flowers
on our window sill will grow
We'll make friends with the milk man and the butcher Mr. Timms
will give us discounts when he can,
and if you tell me yours I'll tell you mine,
and we will clean the cobwebs out of one another's minds.
Don't ever say you've tried to leave me in this life
Don't ever say you've tried for the last time
So, if you want something
And you call, call
Then I'll come running
To fight, and I'll be at your door
When there's something worth running for
When your mind's made up
When your mind's made up
There's no point trying to change it
When your mind's made up
When your mind's made up
There's no point trying to stop it
You see, you're just like everyone
When the shit falls all you want to do is run, away
And hide all by yourself
When you're far from me, there's nothing else
When your mind's made up
When your mind's made up
There's no point trying to change it
When your mind's made up
When your mind's made up
There's no point even talking
When your mind's made up
When your mind's made up
There's no point trying to fight it
So, if you ever want something
And you call, call
Then I'll come running.
