1 INDIAN RAIN
Rain Clouds in the sky, ( I ) Don't know why
They make me blue, when I'm thinking of you
Maybe they want to cry, As I walk on by
Hiding my tears, in a world of good byes
{Dhentha Dhentha Dhena na Dhena ///
Dhentha Dhena na.........na ne na }
Love during summer rain, Causes no pain
Cause I'm looking back, at you once again
Memories crowding my mind, You're one of a kind
Life with out love, I'm helpless I'm dying
{Dhentha Dhentha Dhena na Dhena ///
Dhentha Dhena na.........na ne na }
Rain drops and dance, strange kind of romance
I don't know why (whether) to cry out loud, But I'm feeling fine
Watch the rhythm of the rain falling down
{Dhentha Dhentha Dhena na Dhena ///
falling down //.............}
Sa, re, ma, pa, ni ma, ni, re ni, ma, ma, re, ni, sa, re, ma, ma,
Re
Ma ma re ....... ma, ma, sa, re, ni, ma, ni, sa, re, ma, ma, re, ma, pa, ni
Pa, ni, sa ni, sa, re, ma, re, ni, ma
Rain drops and dance, strange kind of romance
I don't know why (whether) to cry out loud, But I'm feeling fine
Watch the rythm of the rain falling down
(Trumpet Solo)
Rain falling around, it's just the sound
I like to here, when my hearts feeling down
{Ah..............}
Try to smile once again, As they slash in my window pain
I quiet like that, I don't mind
I've got no complaint
{Dhentha Dhentha Dhena na Dhena ///
Dhentha Dhena na.........na ne na }
Rain drops and dance, strange kind of romance
I don't know why (whether) to cry out loud, But I'm feeling fine
Watch the rhythm of the rain falling down
{Dhentha Dhentha Dhena na Dhena ///
falling down //.............}
(Trumpet Solo)
{Ah..............}

2. VISIONS
Visions in your eyes, Telling me no lies
I can see, deep within your heart
Heart is on fire, it's human desires
Feel the pain, (of loosing you again ///)
Water in my eyes, Telling me no lies
I feel the pain, of loosing you again
CHORUS :
Water runs down on my face......
Fire runs in empty space
Let the air, take me in
Only Phool* with, carry me away
(Interlude)
CHORUS
Visions in your eyes, Telling me no lies
I can see, deep within your heart
Heart is on fire, it's human desire
Feel the pain, of loosing you again
Water in my eyes, Telling me no lies
I feel the pain, of loosing you again
CHORUS
Don't go, please stay, I'll promise you I'll change my way //......
(fade..)
*Phool - meaning "flowers"

3. GUIDING STAR
Some say right, and some say wrong,
Tell me where to go..
Trust my heart, or trust my mind,
I just want to know..
Guiding Star, I’m just following you…
Should I run, or should I stay,
Should I walk away?
I’ll just hold on to my belief,
Though I’m here to stay
Guiding star, I’m just following you..
I’ve been tryin’ to hold my ground, so long..
Tryin’ to make them understand my song…
I’ve been tryin’ to hold my ground so-o lo-o-ng,
Guiding star…
You’re the one who knows where I’m at again..
Give me strength, give me hope,
To do all that I must do..
Show me light to see the way,
‘Coz all I see is you..
Guiding star, I’m just following you….

4. WILL YOU BE MY LADY
Will you be my lady ? Will you be my lover ?
Will you be the one Love, always and forever ?
Will you be the Sunlight, wake me in the Morning ?
Will you be the Starshine,touch me when I'm dreaming ?
Will you be my lady......
When your friends surround you, I'll be your Laughter
When the Party's over, I'll be there after
When you're feeling down girl, I'll be your Sorrow
When your day is over, I'll be Tomorrow
Will you be my lady......
When your eyes are smiling, I'll be the Reason
King of you Heart girl, right through all the Seasons
When your world is lonely, I'll be your Shadow
When your day is over, I'll be Tomorrow
Will you be my lady......
Sajana.... kahe nahin aaye...?
When your feeling lonely, I'll be your Shadow
When your day is over, I'll be Tomorrow
Will you be my lady.....
