1. LOVING YOU

I used to run
I used to hide
From love
But now I'm satisfied

'Cause you showed me
That love could be
So good
So real
And oh so right

So many things I used to let get in my way
Now I open up my arms and say

[Chorus]
Hey loving you
All I wanna do
For the rest of my life
This feels so right
I'm Loving you
All I wanna do
For the rest of my days
I like the way I'm loving you

An open book
An open door
That's what you are
And I thank you for

The heart you give
That's sensitive
You're all I needed, you're so much more

I used to fill each hour of each single day
Now I slow it down enough to say

[Chorus]
I'm loving you
All I wanna do
For the rest of my life
This feels so right
I'm loving you
It's all I wanna do
For the rest of my days
I like the way I'm loving you

(I'm loving you don't you know, don't you know)

Every day (every day)
Every night (every night)
Holding me closer (closer)
Feeling so right
I'm loving you

[Chorus X2]

I'm loving you (you)
I like the way I'm loving you

Baby, baby, baby you're the one
Keep me wait baby all night long

Lookin' it over, thinkin' about all the times we spent together
Don't worry about it, cause the feelings I have no longer seem to be with me

Falling apart, does life get in the way

The way that you are

Feels like my world is coming together
The way that you smile
Just for a while
I know it took some time to discover
You're the only one

No more sadness to be
No more waiting til you come around
We know that you're the only one for me yeah
For reasons maybe only I can see

The way that you are
The look in your eyes
Feels like my world is coming together
The way that you smile
Just for a while
I know it took some time to discover
From one broken heart to another
You're the only one

8. IT'S ONLY LOVE THAT GETS THROUGH

Girl you are rich even with nothing
And you know tenderness comes from pain
It's amazing how you love
And love is kind and love can give
And get no gain

[1] - It's down a rugged road you've come
Though you had every reason
You didn't come undone
Somehow you made it to the other side
You didn't suffer in vain

You forgive those who have trespassed against you
And you know tenderness comes from pain
It's amazing how you love
And love is kind and love can give
And love needs no gain

[Repeat 1]

You didn't suffer in vain
You know it's only love
That gets you through
Only love, it's only love
It's only love that gets you through

9. BY YOUR SIDE

You think I’d leave your side baby?
You know me better than that
You think I’d leave down when your down on your knees?
I wouldn’t do that

I’ll do you right when your wrong
I-----ohhh, ohhh

If only you could see into me

Oh, when your cold
I’ll be there to hold you tight to me
When your on the outside baby and you can’t get in
I will show you, your so much better than you know
When your lost, when your alone and you can’t get back again
I will find you darling I’ll bring you home

If you want to cry
I am here to dry your eyes
And in no time you’ll be fine

You think I’d leave your side baby
You know me better than that
You think I’d leave you down when your down on your knees
I wouldn’t do that

I’ll do you right when your wrong
I-----i, ohhhh, ohhh

If only you could see into me

Oh when your cold
I’ll be there
To hold you tight to me
Oh when your alone
I’ll be there by your side baby
Repeat 1x

10. PEARLS

There is a woman in somalia
Scraping for pearls on the roadside
There's a force stronger than nature
Keeps her will alive
That's how she's dying
She's dying to survive
Don't know what she's made of
I would like to be that brave
She cries to the heaven above
There is a stone in my heart
She lives a life she didn't choose
And it hurts like brand-new shoes

Hurts like brand-new shoes

There is a woman in somalia
The sun gives her no mercy
The same sky we lay under
Burns her to the bone
Long as afternoon shaddows
It's gonna take her to get home
Each grain carefully wrapped up
Pearls for her little girl

Hallelujah
Hallelujah

She cries to the heaven above
There is a stone in my heart
She lives a life she didn't choose
And it hurts like brand-new shoes

11. LOVE IS STRONGER THAN PRIDE

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

R.E.M. : ROMANCE [11]





R.E.M. is an American rock band formed in Athens, Georgia, in 1980 by Michael Stipe (lead vocals), Peter Buck (guitar), Mike Mills (bass guitar), and Bill Berry (drums and percussion). R.E.M. was one of the first popular alternative rock bands, and gained early attention due to Buck's ringing, arpeggiated guitar style and Stipe's unclear vocals. R.E.M. released its first single, "Radio Free Europe", in 1981 on the independent record label Hib-Tone. The single was followed by the Chronic Town EP in 1982, the band's first release on I.R.S. Records. In 1983, the band released its critically acclaimed debut album Murmur, and built its reputation over the next few years through subsequent releases, constant touring, and the support of college radio. Following years of underground success, R.E.M. achieved a mainstream hit in 1987 with the single "The One I Love". The group signed to Warner Bros. Records in 1988, and began to espouse political and environmental concerns while playing large arenas worldwide.
In 1996, R.E.M. re-signed with Warner Bros. for a reported US$80 million, at the time the most expensive recording contract in history. The following year, Bill Berry left the band, while Buck, Mills, and Stipe continued the group as a three-piece. Through some changes in musical style, the band continued its career into the next decade with mixed critical and commercial success. In 2007, the band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Humming
All the way to reno
You’ve dusted the non believers
And challenged the laws of chance
Now, sweet
You were so sugar sweet
You may as well have had ’kick me’
Fastened on your sleeve

You know what you are
You’re gonna be a star
You know what you are
You’re gonna be a star

Wing
Is written on your feet
Your achilles heel
Is a tendency
To dream
But you’ve know that from the beginning
You didn’t have to go so far
You didn’t have to go.

You know what you are
You’re gonna be a star
You know what you are
You’re gonna be a star

You know who you are
You know who you are
You know who you are.

Humming
All the way to reno,
You’ve written your own directions
And whistled the rules of change

You know what you are
You’re gonna be a star
You know what you are
You’re gonna be a star
You know what you are

You know what you are

3. I DON'T SLEEP, I DREAM



(berry/buck/mills/stipe)


I’m looking for an interruption,
Do you believe?
You looking to dig my dreams
Be prepared for anything
You come into my little scene
Hooray, hooray, hip hip hooray
There’s one thing I can guarantee:
You won’t have to dig, dig too deep
Said leave me to lay, but touch me deep,
I don’t sleep, I dream
I’ll settle for a cup of coffee, but you know what I really need

Are you looking to drive my dreams?
You here to run my screens?
You come, deliver my demons
Hooray, hooray, hip hip hooray
Are you coming to ease my headache?
Do you give good head?
Am I good in bed?
I don’t know, I guess so
I don’t sleep, I dream
I’ll settle for a cup of coffee, but you know what I really need

I’m looking for an interruption,
Can you believe?
Some medicine
for my headache
Hooray, hooray, hip hip hooray
I’m pitching for a new direction
Pinch me when I wake
Don’t tell me my dreams are fake
You leave me to lay, you touch me deep,
I don’t sleep, I dream
I’ll settle for a cup of coffee, but you know what I really need
Leave me to lay, but touch me deep,
I don’t sleep, I dream
I’ll settle for a cup of coffee, but you know what I really need

4. BE MINE

(berry/buck/mills/stipe)


(a speed zone up here too)

I never thought of this as funny
It speaks another world to me
I wanna be your easter bunny
I wanna be your christmas tree

I’ll strip the world that you must live in
Of all it’s godforsaken greed
I’ll ply the tar out of your feathers
I’ll pluck the thorns out of your feet
You and me
You and me
You and me

And if I choose your sanctuary
I’ll want to wash you with my hair
I’ll want to drink of sacred fountains
And find the riches hidden there

I’ll eat the lotus and peyote
I’ll want to hear the caged-bird sing
I’ll want the secrets of the temple
I’ll want the finger with the ring
You and me
You and me
You and me

And if you make me your religion
I’ll give you all you will need
I’ll be the drawing of your breath
I’ll be the cup if you should bleed
I’ll be the sky above the ganges
I’ll be the vast and stormy sea
I’ll be the lights that guide you inland
I’ll be the visions you will see
Visions you will see
You will see
You will see
You and me
You and me
You and me
You and me
You and me
You and me

5. SHE JUST WANTS TO BE

It’s not that she walked away,
Her world got smaller.
All the usual places, the same destinations,
Only something’s changed.

It’s not that she wasn’t rewarded
With pomegranate afternoons
And Mingus, Chet baker and chess.

It’s not the stampede and fortune
Of prim affectations
She’s off on a right and she knows now
It’s greater than the whole
Of the past
It’s greater
And now she knows.

She just wants to be somewhere
She just wants to be.
She just wants to be somewhere
She just wants to be.

It’s not that the transparency
Of earlier incarnations
Now we’re back on, we’re enriched
And loaded
With beautiful vulnerability
And now she knows.

Now is greater
And she knows that.

She just wants to be somewhere
She just wants to be.
She just wants to be somewhere
She just wants to be.

Now is greater
Now is greater
And she knows that

She just wants to be somewhere
She just wants to be.
She just wants to be somewhere
She just wants to be.

It’s not like the angels
Could truly look down
Stir up the trappings
And light on the ground.
Remind us of what, when,
Why or who?
The how’s up to us, me and you
And now is greater than the whole
Of the past
Is greater and now she knows that.

Now she knows.

6. SWEETNESS FOLLOWS


(berry/buck/mills/stipe)


Readying to bury your father and your mother,
What did you think when you lost another?
I used to wonder why did you bother,
Distanced from one, blind to the other?

Listen here, my sister and my brother
What would you care if you lost the other?
I always wonder why did we bother,
Distanced from one, deaf to the other

(chorus)
Oh, oh, but sweetness follows

It’s these little things, they can pull you under
Live your life filled with joy and wonder
I always knew this altogether thunder
Was lost in our little lives

(repeat chorus 3x)

It’s these little things, they can pull you under
Live your life filled with joy and thunder
Yeah, yeah, we were altogether
Lost in our little lives

Fire (she’s comin’ down on her own, now)

9. ROMANCE


Nations call
Par-parallels
Neighbors call
All in all in all in all in all

That's worth saving up for
Put our heads down on the chest
Mustn't even race for rest
Easy come, easy go

Easy come
Easy go
Easy come
Easy go

Stares conceal
Par-parallels
Neigh-neighbors call
All in all in all in all in all

That's worth saving up for
Put our heads down on the chest
Mustn't even race for rest
Easy come, easy go

Easy come
Easy go
Easy come
Easy go

Chance is yours
And call the shot
Even in a parking lot
With one romance
One romance

Easy come
Easy go
Easy come
Easy go

Neighbors call
Par-parallel
Late at night nations fall
All in all in all in all in all

That's worth saving up for
Put our heads down on the chest
Mustn't even race for rest
Easy come, easy go

Easy come
Easy go
Easy come
Easy go

10. TURN YOU INSIDE OUT


Divide your cultured pearls and paste
I'm looking for to lay to waste
Of all the things I cannot taste
and this not the racy race
They spoke loud

I believe in what you do
I believe in watching you
It's what you do

I could turn you inside-out
What I choose not to do
I could turn you inside-out
What I choose not to do

Given the choice
Given the heart
Given the tool
Given the word
Given the cheers

I believe in what you do
I believe in watching you
It's what you do

I could turn you inside-out
What I choose not to do
I could turn you inside-out
What I choose not to do

VIDEO




11. YOU ARE THE EVERYTHING


Sometimes I feel like I can't even sing (say, say, the light)
I'm very scared for this world
I'm very scared for me
Eviscerate your memory
Here's a scene
You're in the back seat laying down
The windows wrap around
To sound of the travel and the engine
All you hear is time stand still in travel
and feel such peace and absolute
The stillness still that doesn't end
But slowly drifts into sleep
The stars are the greatest thing you've ever seen
And they're there for you
For you alone you are the everything

I think about this world a lot and I cry
And I've seen the films and the eyes
But I'm in this kitchen
Everything is beautiful
And she is so beautiful
She is so young and old
I look at her and I see the beauty
Of the light of music
The voices talking somewhere in the house
Late spring and you're drifting off to sleep
With your teeth in your mouth
You are here with me
You are here with me
You have been here and you are everything

(repeat 1st verse)

1. LOVE SONG




Head under water and they tell me
To breathe easy for awhile
The breathing gets harder, even I know that

Made room for me, it's too soon to see
If I'm happy in your hands
I'm unusually hard to hold on to

Blank stares at blank pages
No easy way to say this
You mean well
But you make this hard on me

I'm not gonna write you a love song
'Cause you ask for it
'Cause you need one, you see

I'm not gonna write you a love song
'Cause you tell me it's make or breaking this
If you're on your way

I'm not gonna write you to stay
All you have is leaving
I'm gon' need a better reason
To write you a love song today, today

I learned the hard way that they all say
Things you wanna hear
My heavy heart sinks deep down under

You and your twisted words
Your help just hurts
You are not what I thought you were
Hello to high and dry

Convinced me to please you
Made me think that I need this too
I'm trying to let you hear me as I am

I'm not gonna write you a love song
'Cause you ask for it
'Cause you need one, you see

I'm not gonna write you a love song
'Cause you tell me it's make or breaking this
If you're on your way

I'm not gonna write you to stay
If all you have is leaving
Imay need a better reason
To write you a love song today

Promise me you'll leave the light on
To help me see daylight, my guide, gone
'Cause I believe there's a way
You can love me because I say

I won't write you a love song
'Cause you ask for it
'Cause you need one, you see

I'm not gonna write you a love song
'Cause you tell me it's make or breaking this

Is that why you wanted a love song?
'Cause you asked for it
'Cause you need one, you see

I'm not gonna write you a love song
'Cause you tell me it's make or breaking this
If you're on your way

I'm not gonna write you to stay
If your heart is nowhere in it
I don't want it for a minute

Babe, I'll walk the seven seas
When I believe that there's a reason
To write you a love song today, today

2. MY LOVE

He bends his breath around my name
And I am humbled
I feel small and plain
But his arms are angels by his side
You need not ask if they're open, just how wide

His lips are day
And his skin is night
Oooh, and with our love we conjure up the twilight
His fingers are music to my soul
And I feel his song play everywhere I go

My love, my love is on his way
I can't wait to see the day
I thankfully lay me down
Oh, my love, my love is on his way
I'm waiting patiently
But if you see me now
My love, please hurry

He loves with rhythm
And paints with flame
He comes in pieces with no name
I won't need answers, I'll just know
Cause I've read the sonnets about his soul

He can be ordinary in the best ways
And still dance like a poet
Through every word he says

My love, my love is on his way
I can't wait to see the day I thankfully
Lay me down
My love, my love is on his way
I'm waiting patiently
But if you see me now
My love, please hurry

All that I never knew
Can you see me now
All that I never said
Can you see me now

He makes me crazy
He makes me cruel
Oh, but I pray he makes me anything
But a fool

Oooh, my love
Please hurry

3. BOTTLE IT UP

There'll be girls across the nation
That will eat this up babe
I know that it's your soul but could you bottle it up and
Get down to the heart of it,
No it's my heart you're shit out of your luck
Don't make me tell you again my love love love love.
Love love love love.

I am aiming to be somebody this somebody trusts
With her delicate soul
I don't claim to know much except soon as you start
To make room for the parts
That aren't you it gets harder to bloom in a garden of
Love love love love
Love Love love love

Only thing I ever could need, only one good thing
Worth trying to be and it's

Love
Love
Love
Love
I do it for Love
Love
Love
Love

We can understand the sentiment you're saying to us
Oh,
But sensible sells so could you kindly shut up
And get started
At keeping your part of the bargain aw please
Little darlin'
You're killing me sweetly with love love love love
Love love love love

Only thing I ever could need only one good thing
Worth trying to be

Love
Love
Love
Love
I do it for Love
Love
Love
Love

Started as a flicker meant to be a flame
Skin has gotten thicker but it burns the same
Still a baby in a cradle got to take my first fall
Baby's getting next to nowhere with her back
Against the wall.
You meant to make me happy make me sad.
Want to make it better better so bad.
But save your resolutions for your never new year
There is only one solution I can see here.

Love you're all I ever could need only one good thing
Worth trying to be and it's
Love
Love
Love
Love
I do it for love, love, love, love
Oh, only gonna get get what you give away,
So give love, love
Only gonna get get what you give away
Love.

4. GRAVITY

Something always brings me back to you
It never takes too long
No matter what I say or do
I still feel you here 'til the moment I'm gone

You hold me without touch
You keep me without chains
I never wanted anything so much
Than to drown in your love and not feel your rain

Set me free, leave me be
I don't wanna fall another moment into your gravity
Here I am and I stand so tall
I'm just the way I'm supposed to be
But you're on to me and all over me

You loved me 'cause I'm fragile
When I thought that I was strong
But you touch me for a little while
And all my fragile strength is gone

Set me free, leave me be
I don't wanna fall another moment into your gravity
Here I am and I stand so tall
I'm just the way I'm supposed to be
But you're on to me and all over me

I live here on my knees
As I try to make you see
That you're everything I think I need
Here on the ground

But you're neither friend nor foe
Though I can't seem to let you go
The one thing that I still know
Is that you're keeping me down
You're keeping me down

You're on to me, on to me and all over
Something always brings me back to you
It never takes too long

VIDEO


5. LOVE ON THE ROCKS

We met on a rainy evening in the summertime
Don't think I need to tell you more
I needed a raise I worked so hard for this love of mine
Still I got nothing to show for it.

Tongue tied and twisted, go on baby and go to my head.

Here's a simplification of everything we're going though
You plus me is bad news
But you're a lovely creation and I like to think that I am too
But my friend said I look better without you.

Tongue tied and twisted, go on baby and go to my head.

Babe, baby believe me
If I stay it ain't gonna be easy
Okay we'll do it your way
But this is the last time
You'll hear the beautiful sound of love coming down
Love on the rocks.

You love the chase but hate me for the runaround
We both just tired of the whole thing.
You tell me what you want you need you know you have to have
And I just pretend I'm listening

Too tired this time to deal with old suits you wear with your ties that won't bind.

Babe, baby believe me
If I stay it ain't gonna be easy
Okay we'll do it your way
But this is the last time
You'll hear the beautiful sound of love coming down
Love on the rocks.

Hot as hell cold as ice sip it slow cause it's so nice
Dulls my senses drives my pain but I do it again
Burns a bit to the touch dangerous if it's too much
If this bottle could talk
Love on the rocks

Babe, baby believe me
If I stay it ain't gonna be easy
Okay we'll do it your way
But this is the last time
You'll hear the beautiful sound of love coming down
Love on the rocks.

VIDEO


6. HOLD MY HEART


I never meant to be the one to let you down
If anything, I thought I saw myself going first
Didn't know how to stick around
How to see anybody but me be getting hurt

I keep remembering the same night
And the conversation breaking up the moon
I didn't wanna tell you, you were right
Like the seasons changing, oh, I felt it too

Does anybody know
How to hold my heart
How to hold my heart
Cause I don't wanna let go, let go, let go
Too soon

I wanna tell you so
Before the sun goes dark
How to hold my heart
Cause I don't wanna let go, let go, let go
Of you

I'm the kind to try to tell you lies
But the truth is, you've been hiding from me too
Sitting and sneaking in behind your eyes
Same thing yours could ever do

Does anybody know
How to hold my heart
How to hold my heart
Cause I don't wanna let go, let go, let go
Too soon

I wanna tell you so
Before the sun goes dark
How to hold my heart
Cause I don't wanna let go, let go, let go
Of you

Is anybody listening?
Cause I'm crying
Is anybody listening?

Does anybody know
How to hold my heart
How to hold my heart
Cause I don't wanna let go, let go, let go
Too soon

I wanna tell you so
Before the sun goes dark
How to hold my heart
Cause I don't wanna let go, let go, let go
Of you

Does anybody know
How to hold my heart
How to hold my heart
Cause I don't wanna let go, let go, let go
Too soon

I wanna tell you so
Before the sun goes dark
How to hold my heart
Cause I don't wanna let go, let go, let go

Don't wanna let go, let go of you
Don't wanna let go

7. BREATHE AGAIN

Car is parked, bags are packed, but what kind of heart doesn't look back
At the comfortable glow from the porch, the one I will still call yours?
All those words came undone and now I'm not the only one
Facing the ghosts that decide if the fire inside still burns

All I have, all I need, he's the air I would kill to breathe
Holds my love in his hands, still I'm searching for something
Out of breath, I am left hoping someday I'll breathe again
I'll breathe again

Open up next to you and my secrets become your truth
And the distance between that was sheltering me comes in full view
Hang my head, break my heart built from all I have torn apart
And my burden to bear is a love I can't carry anymore

All I have, all I need, he's the air I would kill to breathe
Holds my love in his hands, still I'm searching for something
Out of breath, I am left hoping someday I'll breathe again

It hurts to be here
I only wanted love from you
It hurts to be here
What am I gonna do?

All I have, all I need, he's the air I would kill to breathe
Holds my love in his hands, still I'm searching
All I have, all I need, he's the air I would kill to breathe
Holds my love in his hands, still I'm searching for something
Out of breath, I am left hoping someday I'll breathe again
I'll breathe again

8. ONE SWEET LOVE

Just about the time the shadows call
I undress my mind and dare you to follow
Paint a portrait of my mystery
Only close my eyes and you are here with me
A nameless face to think I see
To sit and watch the waves with me till they're gone
A heart I'd swear I'd recognize is made out of
My own devices....
Could I be wrong?

[CHORUS]
The time that I've taken
I pray is not wasted
Have I already tasted my piece of one sweet love?

Sleepless nights you creep inside of me
Paint your shadows on the breath that we share
You take more than just my sanity
You take my reason not to care.
No ordinary wings I'll need
The sky itself will carry me back to you
The things I dream that I can do I'll open up
The moon for you
Just come down soon

[CHORUS]
The time that I've taken
I pray is not wasted
Have I already tasted my piece of one sweet love?
Ready and waiting for a heart worth the breaking
But I'd settle for an honest mistake in the name of
One sweet love.

Savor the sorrow to soften the pain sip on
The southern rain
As I do, I don't look don't touch don't do anything
But hope that there is a you.

The earth that is the space between,
I'd banish it from under me...to get to you.
Your unexpected love provides my solitary's
Suicide...oh I wish I knew

[CHORUS]
The time that I've taken
I pray is not wasted
Have I already tasted my piece of one sweet love?
Ready and waiting for a heart worth the breaking
But I'd settle for an honest mistake in the name of
One sweet love.

9. KING OF ANYTHING

Keep drinking coffee, stare me down across the table
While I look outside
So many things I’d say if only I were able
But I just keep quiet and count the cars that pass by

You’ve got opinions, man
We’re all entitled to ‘em, but I never asked
So let me thank you for your time, and try not to waste anymore of mine
And get out of here fast

I hate to break it to you babe, but I’m not drowning
There’s no one here to save

Who cares if you disagree?
You are not me
Who made you king of anything?
So you dare tell me who to be?
Who died and made you king of anything?

You sound so innocent, all full of good intent
Swear you know best
But you expect me to jump up on board with you
And ride off into your delusional sunset

I’m not the one who’s lost with no direction
But you’ll never see
You’re so busy making maps with my name on them in all caps
You got the talking down, just not the listening

And who cares if you disagree?
You are not me
Who made you king of anything?
So you dare tell me who to be?
Who died and made you king of anything?

All my life I’ve tried to make everybody happy
While I just hurt and hide
Waiting for someone to tell me it’s my turn to decide

Who cares if you disagree?
You are not me
Who made you king of anything?
So you dare tell me who to be?
Who died and made you king of anything?

Who cares if you disagree?
You are not me
Who made you king of anything?
So you dare tell me who to be?
Who died and made you king of anything?

Let me hold your crown, babe

10. LET THE RAIN

I wish I were pretty
I wish I were brave
If I owned this city
Then I'd make it behave

And if I were fearless
Then I'd speak my truth
And the world would hear this
That's what I wish I'd do, yeah

If my hands could hold them you'd see
I'd take all these secrets in me
And I'd move and mold them to be
Something I'd set free

I want to darken in the skies
Open the floodgates up
I want to change my mind
I want to be enough
I want the water in my eyes
I want to cry until the end of time

I want to let the rain come down
Make a brand new ground
Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down
Make a brand new ground
Let the rain come down tonight

I hold on to worry so tight
It's safe in here right next to my heart
Who now shouts at the top of her voice
Let me go, let me out, this is not my choice

And I always felt it before
That the world was filled with much more
Than the drowning soul I've learned to be
I just need the rain to remind me

I want to darken in the skies
Open the floodgates up
I want to change my mind
I want to be enough
I want the water in my eyes
I want to cry until the end of time

I want to let the rain come down
Make a brand new ground
Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down
Make a brand new ground
Let the rain come down

I want to let the rain come down
Make a brand new ground
Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down
Make a brand new ground
Let the rain come down

I want to let the rain come down
Make a brand new ground
Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down
Make a brand new ground
Let the rain come down tonight

11. KALEIDOSCOPE HEART

All the colors
Of the rainbow
Hidden 'neath my skin

Hearts have colors
Don't we all know?
Red runs through our veins

Feel the fire burning up
Inspire me with blood
Of blue and green

I have hope
Inside is not a heart
But a kaleidoscope

RAINBOW: MAKE YOUR MOVE [9]




The brainchild of former Deep Purple guitarist Ritchie Blackmore, Rainbow quickly developed into one of the '70s most successful heavy metal bands behind charismatic front man Ronnie James Dio. Together, the duo would produce a string of acclaimed albums which are still considered classics of the genre. But the group would change their musical approach numerous times following the singer's departure, eventually confusing and alienating much of their audience. Releasing eight albums during it's decade long run, the band finally came to an end when Blackmore departed to rejoin his old Deep Purple comrades in a full-fledged reunion in 1984. And while the impact of Rainbow's influence has faded with the intervening decades, theirs was a crucial chapter in the development of heavy metal and hard rock.

Rainbow (also known as Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow or Blackmore's Rainbow) were an English rock band, controlled by former Deep Purple guitarist Ritchie Blackmore from 1975 to 1984 and 1994 to 1997. It was originally established with former Elf members, though over the years Rainbow went through many lineup changes. In addition to lead singers Ronnie James Dio, Graham Bonnet, Joe Lynn Turner and Doogie White, the project consisted of numerous backing musicians. The band started out combining mystical lyric themes with neo-classical metal, but went in a more streamlined commercial style following Dio's departure from the group.

Rainbow was ranked #90 on VH1's 100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock.

1. CATCH THE RAINBOW


When evening falls
She’ll run to me
Like whispered dreams
Your eyes can’t see
Soft and warm
She’ll touch my face
A bed of straw
Against the lace

* we believed we’d catch the rainbow
Ride the wind to the sun
Sail away on ships of wonder
But life’s not a wheel
With chains made of steel
So bless me come the dawn
Come the dawn

2. DESPERATE HEART

Yesterday you were here by my side
Nothing to prove and nothing left to hide
You promised me there would be no goodbye
But now I find another set of lies
Babe you must be crazy
How could you be so blind
Why would you deceive me
Now you’re saying that you’re leaving me behind
So strong I’m not gonna run away
Want you to know that I’m gonna break through
How long can I go on this way
There’s nothing I can do

Desperate heart think you better hold out
Torn apart I was left to bleed
Don’t start feeling you were sold out
Now you better face reality
Did my best did the best that I could
It’s all been wasted just misunderstood
You keep on talking
Your words are sounding so smoothe
Why don’t you say it
You just want to cut me loose
Oh don’t say that you love me
Don’t wont to hear that you tried
Oh don’t tell me that you need me
Don’t want to hear none of your alibis
So strong I’m not gonna run away
Want you to know that I’m gonna break through
How long can I go on this way
There’s nothing I can do

Desperate heart think you better hold out
Torn apart I was left to bleed
Don’t start feeling you were sold out
Now you better face reality

So strong I’m not gonna run away
Want you to know that I’m gonna break through
How long can I go on this way
Tell me what can I do
Nothing I can do

Desperate heart think you better hold out
Torn apart I was left to bleed
Don’t start feeling you were sold out
Now you better face reality

3. I SURRENDER



I surrender to your heart babe
Do anything that you want me to do
Please be tender I’m in your hands girl
This is a feeling I never knew
You know I tried to make it on my own
That’s not the way it was meant to be
Spend my time waiting by the phone
Oh darling come back to me

I surrender, I surrender
I’m giving up the role of pretender
Oh be tender, girl be tender
Can’t you feel the love that I send you
I surrender.

I remember, seems like a lifetime
Can’t believe it’s a matter of days
Since you left I’m near to heartbreak
I want you so bad don’t turn away
What does it take to stay by my side
You know I’ll do what you want me to
Don’t take away this feeling inside
I’m still in love with you

I surrender, I surrender
I’m giving up the role of pretender
Oh be tender, girl be tender
Can’t you feel the love that I send you
I surrender.

I surrender, I surrender
Darling now won’t you be tender
Surrender, oh surrender
Feel the love that I send you
I surrender.

4. BRING ON THE NIGHT [ DREAM CHASER]


I was taking a chance on a tight-rope
Walking the line to the end
I was ready to fall had my back to the wall
But I'm flying again...
I been shifting my gears. I been moving
Cause they wanted me dead or alive
But I'm making a break and I want you to take a ride
Take a ride -
Bring on the night
into the shadows and out of the light
Bring on the night
Let the Dream Chaser take you away
When the sun hits another horizon...
and the joker has started to deal...
You can quit if you choose but there's nothing to lose
By a spin of the wheel
Gotta burn all your bridges behind you, they'll keep dragging
you down if you stay...
and I know I ain't wrong cause I'm free and I'm on my way
on my way...
Bring on the night
into the shadows and out of the light
Bring on the night
Let the Dream Chaser take you away
I live on the edge of tomorrow
I'm racing along on the wind
I can see what I need, you better believe
I'm playin' to win
I got nothin' to fear when I'm flyin...
Cause yesterday's over and gone
and there's nothin' I can do...so I gotta keep movin' on..
Movin' on -
Movin' on -
Bring on the night
into the shadows and out of the light
Bring on the night
Let the Dream Chaser take you away...take you away
Bring on the night
"Dream Chaser"
repeat till fade

5. MAKE YOUR MOVE



You better not mess around with me
You know you better think twice
Because I’ve been running on a really bad streak
And I’m just looking for a fight
So you took me by surprise
Thought I was gonna run
But the cross fire is in my eyes
And my body holds the gun
Here I come
You better get ready to make your move
Got my finger on the trigger and I’m gonna shoot
Get ready make your move
Got your name on my bullet and my aim is true

You better not mess around with me
I got you in my sights
I’ve been running on a really bad streak
Gonna shoot you down tonight
My back’s against the wall
You know that you better think twice
One of us is gonna fall
I’m looking for a fight and the time is right
You better get ready to make your move
Got my finger on the trigger and I’m gonna shoot
I say you better get ready
Make your move
Got your name on my bullet and my aim is true

6. STILL I AM SAD

See the stars come fallin' down the sky
Gently passing, they kiss your tear drops dry
See the wind come, softly blow
Your hair from your face
And the rain comes falling down
In its crazy way
Still I'm sad

For myself my tears just fall in the dust
As I search in the night and find they're lost
See the wind come gently blow
Time into my heart
And the rain comes falling down
While we're apart
Still I'm sad

Version 2 (Yardbirds' version?)

See the stars come joining down from the skies
Gently passing they kiss your tears when you cry
See the wind of summer blow your hair upon your head
See the rain, the falling rain, it's rain
Still I'm sad

Oh my flowers, my tears are falling two days
They are driving the night profound, they are lost
Flower, flower the wind is blowing
Time into my heart
When the wind blows hard, we are apart
Still I'm sad

Oh, oh, oh, oh, Still I'm sad
Oh, oh, oh, oh, How I'm sad

7. STAR STRUCK


If I’m high on a hill
She will still be looking down at me
What does she see
That brings her closer every day to my heart
If I’m away from home
And think I’m all alone
She’s there, somewhere
I look around to see
And looking back at me
She’s there, beware
Creeping like a hungry cat
Seen it before
And I know it can mean that

* the lady’s starstruck she’s nothing but bad luck
The lady’s starstruck running after me
The lady’s starstruck she’s nothing but bad luck, yeah, yeah

I could fly to the moon
But she’d soon find a way to be there
I never knew for a while
That a smile made ’em really care
She wants a souvenir
To everyone it’s clear
She’s hooked, one look
She wants a photograph
And everybody laughs
But not me, ’cause I see
She’s creeping like a hungry cat
Seen it before and I know it can mean that

*

I used to be a game
Now I can’t repeat my name at all
She seems to believe that
I never can refuse her call
She wants a souvenir
To everyone it’s clear
She’s hooked, one look
She wants a photograph
And everybody laughs
But not me, ’cause I see
She’s creeping like a hungry cat
Seen it before and I know it can mean that

* x 2

And back of a tree
I’m looking back at me
Blind and off my state
I’ve just got to beware
The lady’s starstruck
Yes, she’s bad luck, bad luck

8. Since You've Been Gone

I get the same old dream, same time every night
Fall to the ground and I wake up
So I get out of bed ? put on my shoes and in my head
Thoughts like that since our break-up

These four walls are closing in
Look at the fix you've put me in

CHORUS Since you've been gone
Since you've been gone
I?m out of my head, can?t take it
Could I be wrong, but since you've been gone
You cast a spell, so break it
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Since you've been gone

So in the night I stand beneath the back street light
I read the words that you sent to me
I can take the afternoon, but night-time comes around to soon
You can?t know what you mean to me

Your poison letter, your telegram
Just go to show you don?t give a damn

CHORUS

If you will come back baby, you know you'll never do wrong

CHORUS

9. STREET OF DREAMS

I heard the sound of voices in the night
Spellbound there was someone calling
I looked around no one was in sight
Pulled down I just kept on falling
I’ve seen this place before
You were standing by my side
I’ve seen your face before tonight
Maybe I just see what I want it to be
I know it’s a mystery
Do you remember me on a street of dreams
Running through my memory
On the street of dreams

There you stood a distant memory
So good like we never parted
Said to myself I knew you’d set me free
And here we are right back where we started
Something’s come over me
And I don’t know what to feel
Maybe this fantasy is real
Now I know I see what I want it to be
But it’s still a mystery

Do you remember me on the street of dreams
Running through my memory
On the street of dreams
You are on every face I see
On the street of dreams

Solo

Tell me have you always been
On the street of dreams
Will we ever meet again my friend
Do you know just what it meant to be
On the street of dreams
Never know just who you’ll see do ya
On the street of dreams
You can be who you want to be oh yeah
I can hear you calling me
I can feel you haunting me
Haunting me

3. THE WORLD AIN'T READY

[Verse 1:]
She had the mind of a woman, and a body of a man
No one she talked to,would wanna understand
Spent her lonely days pretending
Some how fitting in
But at night she put her high heels on
Showing her sexy skin
She'd tear up the dance floor
Breaking every rule
Driving every guy crazy
No one really knew
The struggle she was goin through
Playing different roles
Wouldn't let you get you close
Afraid to be exposed

[Chorus:]
Be you the real you
Love who you are
Don't let nobody confuse your precious heart
Somebody's right might be a wrong
Girl you know where you belong
Do what you gotta do
Even if the world aint ready for you

[Verse 2:]
Guy at the corner store
Got a daughter who likes girls
No matter how he tries
Daddy can't change her morals
So he buys her pretty dresses
Instead of Baseball Caps
And handpicks her flowers
And kisses her while she naps
The girl loves her daddy
And wants to see him happy
Says "I do" to a man
Hugs her family at the wedding
But underneath the vail
She feels she decieved
Herself
Her man
Her lover
And the daddy she wanted to please

[Chorus]

[Verse 3:]
So easy to laugh at somebody
Without giving a chance
Single out the stranger
Not trying to understand
That people come in different
Sizes, colors, and beliefs
So quick to point the finger
Until the finger points at you

[Chorus]

4. NO REGRETS

No, no, no, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
No regrets

I'm at the station pumping gas in my car
Ready to take a road trip, but scared to go too far
I'm on a tight rope trying to balance beam
But inside I feel like I'm falling emotionally, y'all

Because my body's strong, but my mind is stressed
So I say a prayer and jump the fence
I've gotta find my confidence
No looking back, no regrets

See there's a road in front of me
And what is there, I can't see
But I have no fear, no second guess
I'm gonna take my chance with no regrets

I'm at my computer, I got an e-mail to send
But if I dare press that button, it might be the end
I've got decisions, people in my life to please
I wanna do what's best for them, but somehow leave some for me
Hey, hey, hey, hey

Because my body's strong, but my mind is stressed
So I say a prayer and jump the fence
I've gotta find my confidence
No looking back, no regrets

See there's a road in front of me
And what is there, I can't see
Visit http://www.xtralyrics.com
But I have no fear, no second guess
I'm gonna take my chance with no regrets

If I had to make one wish for my life
It would be unconditional love and freedom of my mind
I'm gonna ask for what I'm worth and give from the heart
I'm gonna place my past behind
And watch the blessings rain from the sky

Because my body's strong, but my mind is stressed
So I say a prayer and jump the fence
I've gotta find my confidence
No looking back, no regrets

See there's a road in front of me
And what is there, I can't see
But I have no fear, no second guess

I don't know about you but here's what I have to do
I have to get up dust myself off
Accept myself, keep moving on
Because I'm stronger and I'm wiser and I'm better than I was before

Now I can say no
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
I can say no
No, no, no, no, no, no, no

I can say no
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
No regrets, no regrets
No, no, no, no, no, no, no

We can say no
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
You can say no
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
No regrets, no regrets
