Here I am
Just like I said I would be
I'm your friend
Just like you think it should be
Did you think I would stand here and lie
As our moment was passing us by
Oh I am here
Waiting for your change of heart
It just takes a beat
To turn it around
Yes I'm waiting for your change of heart
At the edge of my seat
Please turn it around
Days go by
Leaving me with a hunger
I could fly
Back to when we were younger
When adventures like cars we would ride
And the years lied ahead still untried
While I stand here
Waiting for your change of heart...
Blind leading blind
Never hear the laughter
Search through time
Nothing reveals the answer
If it's truth that you're looking to find
It is nowhere outside of your mind
I bide my time
Waiting for your change of heart...
Maybe He'll Know
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Maybe he'll know
I'm not so sure
Maybe he'll know, well
Maybe he'll be my cure
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Maybe he'll know, well
I'm not so sure
Maybe he'll know why
Maybe he'll be, oh oh
Something calls to me,
I know
I hear an echo start to pound
Like a drum
Chanting a song, anchor me
But don't take too long, no no
I got this anxious feeling
I got this ache engraved
In me like stone
Don't take too long
Say you'll never leave me
Say you'll never go
No no no no
Oh oh, oh oh, ...
(repete a música e canta sozinha)
Boy Blue
You never knew yourself well enough
but she never knew you at all
and when she put you out on your road
it may have stolen your innocence
but not your soul
Tell me where is a little boy blue
you'll find him standing always
one step ahead
fast alittle, shy alittle, boy blue
wise blood runs warm and deep
on the street
...Kids walking, just a kid walking
You send a letter with photographs
and I'll tuck them under my dreams
and if we wake up old beyond our years
not quite as brave as we seem
it's just the pain that never disappears
Tell me where is little boy blue
you'll find him standing always one step ahead...
Dance alittle, cry alittle...
where are you boy blue
where are you...
True Colors
You with the sad eyes
don't be discouraged
oh I realize
it's hard to take courage
in a world full of people
you can lose sight of it all
and the darkness inside you
can make you fell so small
But I see your true colors
shining through
I see your true colors
and that's why I love you
so don't be afraid to let them show
your true colors
true colors are beautiful
like a rainbow
Show me a smile then
don't be unhappy, can't remember
when I last saw you laughing
if this world makes you crazy
and you've taken all you can bear
you call me up
because you know I'll be there
And I'll see your true colors
shining through
I see your true colors
and that's why I love you
so don't be afraid to let them show
your true colors
true colors are beautiful
like a rainbow
Calm Inside the Storm
I can get up
on the right side of the bed
but that won't stop the rain
from coming down on my head
I can live my life
playing hide and seek
but when I look inside
it's hard to make believe,
ah ha
'n lately
you seem so far away
I wish I could say something
but I don't know what to say
I can feel your eyes
I don't have to look at you
boy, discontentment
is-a-sneaking' through
You never really want anything
but what you really need is everything
I'll give you something only life can bring
the calm inside a storm
love me a little, love me long
wo yeah
the calm inside a storm
love me a little, love me long
Don't you know
you should be holding me
but you're locked inside
why don't you throw me your keys
I'm like a rockin' ship
on your rollin' sea
you know crash lightnin'
never frightens me, nah
...you never really wanted
but what you really needed
I wanna give u something
mmm...the calm inside the storm
love me a little, love me long
love me a little, love me long
What's Going On
Mother, mother

brother, brother, brother

you know we've got to find a way
to bring some lovin' here today
Father, father

war is not the answer
for only love can conquer hate
you know we've got to find a way
to bring some understanding yeah today
Aw, picket lines, picket signs

talk to me so you can see
oh what's going on,
tell me what's going on
Mother, mother
ev'ry body thinks we're wrong
baby who are they to judge us
'cause our hair is long
you know we've got to find a way
to bring some understanding here today

The Faraway Nearby
Out in the faraway nearby
can you hear me call
out in the faraway nearby
I'm breaking down the walls
till you're here to stay
out from the faraway
Hot looks, cold words,
don't know what it is you heard
but I didn't meant it,
if I said something wrong
short nights, long dreams
something happens in between
then a weird feeling,
like you're here but still you're gone
...oo, heart beats
like a knock on the door
but it sounds so faraway
In the faraway nearby
can you hear me call
out in the faraway nearby
I'm breaking down the walls
till you're here to stay
out from the faraway
Big whisper, small scream
but it's not like what it seems
locked up in the open
don't know which way to go
deserts, oceans
leaving footprints in the sand
hoping that you'll se them
and wishing you'd follow
...and walk with me hand in hand, ya-ha
and talk with me you got a plan, ah-ha
and hold me, and hold me
don't stop...in the faraway nearby
can you hear me call
911
There's a riot in the kitchen and the bed's on fire
there's a locket in my pocket that I can't find
oh I'm at the window whistling in the wind
I'm at my own front door and I can't get in
I'm dialing up 911
I'm on the brink of trouble again,
if you could change the time, a little,
then everything would be
fine, fine, fine
Tell me do you have a home-made remedy,
the only time we talk is in your sleep
oh he likes mornings, I like the moon
it's a typical case of too little, too soon
I'm dialing up 911
I'm on the brink of trouble again,
if you could change the time, a little,
then everything would be
fine, fine, fine
...My back is in the corner,
my boat is taking on water,
you can't wrap fire up in paper
and you can't rap your way out of here
Oh I like mornings, he likes the moon
it's a typical case of too late, too soon
I'm dialing up 911...
One Track Mind
ah, ah
ah, ah
(got a one track mind)
Something's happening
I want everything
...what does the moment bring
I want it now
(got a one track mind)
I want it, I need it
(got a one track mind)
I really think so
ah, ah...I want everything
and I want it now!
(got a one track mind)
People say to me
mind my Q's and P's
...why do they bother me
something inside
(got a one track mind)
comes over me,
I want it, I need it
(got a one track mind)
I really think so
ah, ah...
(got a ...)
I climb up the stairs
I sit up and stare
but nobody's there
I walk ahead
(got a one track mind)
you fall behind
another victim
got a one track mind
ah, ah...I want everything
and I want it now!
