"Top Of The World"
Such a feelin's comin' over me
There is wonder in most every thing I see
Not a cloud in the sky, got the sun in my eyes
And I won't be surprised if it's a dream
Everything I want the world to be
Is now comin' true especially for me
And the reason is clear, it's because you are here
You're the nearest thing to Heaven that I've seen
I'm on the top of the world lookin' down on creation
And the only explanation I can find
Is the love that I've found ever since you've been around
Your love's put me at the top of the world
Somethin' in the wind has learned my name
And it's tellin' me that things are not the same
In the leaves on the trees and the touch of the breeze
There's a pleasin' sense of happiness for me
There is only one wish on my mind
When this day is through I hope that I will find
That tomorrow will be just the same for you and me
All I need will be mine if you are here
I'm on the top of the world lookin' down on creation
And the only explanation I can find
Is the love that I've found ever since you've been around
Your love's put me at the top of the world
I'm on the top of the world lookin' down on creation
And the only explanation I can find
Is the love that I've found ever since you've been around
Your love's put me at the top of the world

DON'T TELL ME
I'll stay with you until the end
I'll say you'll let me be your friend
I'll say you'll let me in the end
I just want to be your friend
How can I be sure you're breaking all the rules
How can I be sure I should be high above
I'll climb the mountain, reaching for the skies
And all too soon I jump the moon
and find I'm losing my mind
And don't tell me I'm the howling wind
And don't tell me you're the moonlit star
And don't tell me I'm the devil's friend
And don't tell me, don't tell me
I've gone too far
I didn't hear you as you left my room last night
You turned your back on me
I didn't hear you as you left my room last night
Please return and set me free
I'll climb the mountain, reaching for the skies
And all too soon I jump the moon
and find the sun burns my eyes
And don't tell me I'm the howling wind
And don't tell me you're the moonlit star
And don't tell me I'm the devil's friend
And don't tell me, don't tell me
I've gone too far
No no no...No no no...
I can't get a grip on...
I can't get a grip on...
I can't get a grip on... (you)
I can't get a grip on...
no no I can't get a grip on!
I'll say you'll let me in the end
I'll say you'll let me be your friend
I've maybe asked this once before
Don't you love me anymore?

Lie To Me

"Lie To Me"
Come on and lay with me
Come on and lie to me
Tell me you love me
Say I'm the only one
Come on and lay with me
Come on and lie to me
Tell me you love me
Say I'm the only one
Experiences have a lasting impression
But words once spoken
Don't mean a lot now
Belief is the way
The way of the innocent
And when I say innocent
I should say naive
So lie to me
But do it with sincerity
Make me listen
Just for a minute
Make me think
There's some truth in it
Come on and lay with me
Come on and lie to me
Tell me you love me
Say I'm the only one
Come on and lay with me
Come on and lie to me
Tell me you love me
Say I'm the only one
Promises made for convenience
Aren't necessarily
What we need
Truth is a word
That's lost its meaning
The truth has become
Merely half-truth
So lie to me
Like they do it in the factory
Make me think that at the end of the day
Some great reward
Will be coming my way
Come on and lay with me
Come on and lie to me
Tell me you love me
Say I'm the only one

The Boy From The Chemist Is Here To See You
Every day of every year you live your life in hope and fear,
That each small sin and imperfection is buried deep beyond detection.
But one by one the ghosts return, and each selects it's place to burn,
Into your soft and breaking heart, and this is how the aching starts.
The jokes about the ugly kid.
The things you said but never did.
The people torn and crushed and battered.
The ones you broke but should've flattered.
Oh, you should have run whilst you had time.
Oh, you should have left the past behind.
The boy from the chemist is here to see you.
The laughing stops cause he's too near you.
The boy you left that always loved you.
Returns to earth from miles above you now.
So wash away the dirty skin, there's always worse remains within.
The tangled web and bitter mesh, but each shall have their pound of flesh.
No sympathy, no charity, no false pleas of humility.
No money back, no guarantee, no great escape for you and me.
Oh, you should have run whilst you had time.
Oh, you should have left the past behind.
The boy from the chemist is here to see you.
The laughing stops cause he's too near you.
The boy you left that always loved you.
Returns to earth from miles above you
And everyone that's ever suffered, friend or foe husbands or lovers
They'll come back to have their day.
In time you find your mind has no escape.
Don't believe that you can hide, don't believe they'll be denied.
They'll come knocking at your door, this is what they've waited for.
The chance to even up the score.
The boy from the chemist is here to see you.
The laughing stops cause he's too near you.
The boy you left that always loved you.
Returns to earth from miles above you
And everyone that's ever suffered, friend or foe husbands or lovers
They'll come back to have their day.
In time you find your mind has no escape.

"Bette Davis Eyes"
Her hair is Harlow gold
Her lips sweet surprise
Her hands are never cold
She's got Bette Davis eyes
She'll turn the music on you
You won't have to think twice
She's pure as New York snow
She got Bette Davis eyes
And she'll tease you
She'll unease you
All the better just to please you
She's precocious, and she knows just
What it takes to make a pro blush
She got Greta Garbo's standoff sighs
She's got Bette Davis eyes
She'll let you take her home
It wets her appetite
She'll lay you on the throne
She got Bette Davis eyes
She'll take a tumble on you
Roll you like you were dice
Until you come out blue
She's got Bette Davis eyes
She'll expose you, when she snows you
Off your feet with the crumbs she throws you
She's ferocious, and she knows just
What it takes to make a pro blush
All the boys think she's a spy
She's got Bette Davis eyes
And she'll tease you
She'll unease you
All the better just to please you
She's precocious, and she knows just
What it takes to make a pro blush
All the boys think she's a spy
She's got Bette Davis eyes
She'll tease you
She'll unease you
Just to please you
She's got Bette Davis eyes
She'll expose you
When she snows you
She knows you
She's got Bette Davis eyes

I'm Going Slightly Mad

I'm Going Slightly Mad
When the outside temperature rises
And the meaning is oh so clear
One thousand and one yellow daffodils
Begin to dance in front of you, oh dear
Are they trying to tell you something?
You're missing that one final screw
You're simply not in the pink my dear
To be honest you haven't got a clue
I'm going slightly mad
I'm going slightly mad
It finally happened, happened
It finally happened, ooh woh
It finally happened, I'm slightly mad
Oh dear
I'm one card short of a full deck
I'm not quite the shilling
One wave short of a shipwreck
I'm not my usual top billing
I'm coming down with a fever
I'm really out to sea
This kettle is boiling over
I think I'm a banana tree
Oh dear
I'm going slightly mad
I'm going slightly mad (I'm going slightly mad)
It finally happened, happened
It finally happened, uh huh
It finally happened, I'm slightly mad
Oh dear
Uh uh ah ah
Uh uh ah ah
I'm knitting with only one needle
Unraveling fast it's true
I'm driving only three wheels these days
But my dear, how about you?
I'm going slightly mad
I'm going slightly mad
It finally happened
It finally happened, oh yes
It finally happened
I'm slightly mad
Just very slightly mad
And there you have it

Hide And Seek

HIDE AND SEEK
Go if you've got to go
Leave me here if you've got to know
But don't think me a fool
No i'm not worried, no i'm not worried at all
Be sad if you're feeling sad
But don't play sad if you're feeling glad
I know you all too well
No i'm not worried, no i'm not worried so tell
Sometimes i will find i've got to be
A million miles away before i'll see...
I don't know why but you've gotta be
I don't know why but you've gotta be for me
Hide if you've got to hide
I'll only be one step behind
I've lost you once before
And i don't want to lose you, i don't want to lose you no more
Run if you've got to run
The chase has always been the most fun
But this time don't make a meal
Because i don't want to lose you, i don't want to lose you for real
Sometimes i will find i've got to be
A million miles away before i'll see...
I don't know why but you've gotta be
I don't know why but you've gotta be for me
I don't know why but you've gotta be
I don't know why but you've gotta be for me
Sometimes i will find i've got to be
A million miles away before i'll see...
I don't know why but you've gotta be
I don't know why but you've gotta be for me
For me
For me

EVERY SINGLE DAY
I could watch you cry, if I tried,
Although it would hurt me to
I can hold your hand, and understand
The pain you're going through
I can see in you
You want to be in love again
I can only say
My only words to keep you free of doubting
Every single day,
I'll give you my heart
I'll give you my soul
Every single day,
I'll give you my heart
I'll give you my soul
You were just a girl,
Lost and alone until my eyes found you
I was just a boy,
Who wandered in shelter of the cold
When the sun came up
It smiled on you, it smiled on me
We both realized
It had to be, I made this promise to you
Every single day,
I'll give you my heart
I'll give you my soul
Every single day,
I'll give you my heart
I'll give you my soul
So you see my love,
Don't you suffer
Don't you worry anymore

HUMAN
Come on, baby, dry your eyes
Wipe your tears
Never like to see you cry
Won't you please forgive me
I wouldn't ever try to hurt you
I just needed someone to hold me
To fill the void while you were gone
To fill this space of emptiness
I'm only human
Of flesh and blood I'm made
Human
Born to make mistakes
So many nights I longed to hold you
So many times I looked and saw your face
Nothing could change the way I feel
No one else could ever take your place
I'm only human
Of flesh and blood I'm made
Human
Born to make mistakes
(I am just a man) Human
(Human) Please forgive me
The tears I cry aren't tears of pain
They're all to hide my guilt and shame
I forgive you, now I ask the same of you
While we were apart, I was human too
(Human
Human)
I'm only human
Of flesh and blood I'm made (I am just a man)
Human
Born to make mistakes

Color My Love
When I'm lost and down
It is you that I miss
Now my love is somewhere
Lost in your kiss
And my heart is beating
I need you, baby
You can get me high
You can drive me crazy
I need you, you're so funny
I love you 'cause you're sweet, honey
Put me now in a new direction
With your love and, and with your affection
Color my love
With a flower or just a kiss
Color my love
I see dreams when I kiss your lips
Color my love
On a rainbow, just me and you
Color my love
Love has a color, the color of my love is you
Well, there will be no one - to take your place
You can color my love, my world, my space
When you say you love me
Looking through the window
I can see the stars playing with the rainbow
Close to you there's no darkness
When I am with you there's no sadness
Take my hand, I need all your protection
And I will give you all my love and passion
Color my love
With a flower or just a kiss
Color my love
I see dreams when I kiss your lips
Color my love
On a rainbow, just me and you
Color my love
Love has a color, the color of my love is you
We can take a trip in a magic heaven
Living in a fantasy
Flowers everywhere
Out in space and no cares
Only you can get me high
And can color my, my, my my my ?
Color my love
I need your touch, your love, you're too much
Color my love
With your good style, I dress me up
Color my love
When I am with you all my dreams come true
Color my love
Love has a color, the color of my love is you

To the night
Hold each other tight, real tight
Baby, don't you go
I need you
Stay here by my side, please do
Oh-oh, babe, we're gonna love tonite
Just the thought of you, baby
Oh-oh, babe, we're gonna love tonite
Yeah, we're gonna love tonite

CASTLES IN THE SKY
Do you ever question your life?
Do you ever wonder why?
Do you ever see in your dreams...
All the castles in the sky?
Oh tell me why...
Do we build castles in the sky?
Oh tell me why...
Are the castles way up high
Please tell me why...
Do we build castles in the sky?
Oh tell me why...

TIME WILL TELL
Time was - when time stood still for our rendezvous
My heartbeat - hit danger-zone when I thought of you
What we had - felt like an eternity
And nothing could go wrong - or steal our ecstasy
When you're sleeping next to me
I'm waiting for the day
I lie awake and dream of you
A thousand miles away
So time will tell - and time's never wrong
So time will tell - but time takes so long
Our time's up - or that's the way that it seems to be
Your heartbeat - is beating now for your liberty
What we had - can never return again
No matter what we do - no matter who takes the blame
I lie awake and dream of you
A thousand miles away
So time will tell - and time's never wrong
So time will tell - but time takes so long

Before The Next Teardrop Falls
If he brings you happiness
Then I wish you both the best
It's your happiness that matters most of all
But if he ever breaks your heart
If the teardrops ever start
I'll be there before the next teardrop falls
Si te quire de verdad
Y te da felicidad
Te deseo lo mas bueno pa' los dos
Pero si te hace llorar
A mi me puedes hablar
Y estare contigo cuando triste estas
I'll be there anytime
You need me by your side
To drive away every teardrop that you cried
And if he ever leaves you blue
Just remember, I love you
And I'll be there before the next teardrop falls
And I'll be there before the next teardrop falls

Movin' On Up
Well we're movin' on up,
To the east side.
To a deluxe apartment in the sky.
Movin' on up
To the east side.
We finally got a piece of the pie.
Fish don't fry in the kitchen;
Beans don't burn on the grill.
Took a whole lotta tryin'
Just to get up that hill.
Now we're up in the big leagues
Gettin' our turn at bat.
As long as we live, it's you and me baby
There ain't nothin wrong with that.
Well we're movin' on up,
To the east side.
To a deluxe apartment in the sky.
Movin' on up
To the east side.
We finally got a piece of the pie
