Break out the wall
Baby why are you so sad?
What's the thing your running from?
Caught in the red light.
As if money is the cure
Is this your only way to survive?
Are you trying to get even with the past
What happened to the dreams you had?
I think it's time for you, to
Show them you are able.
To leave without saying one word
I know it won't be easy, baby
But i will run with you
Cause every night has a day
Every wish has a prayer
Don't loose your faith
And I'll be holding your hand
Cause it's never too late
There's someone who needs you
[Chorus]
So break down that wall, baby
There's a new world out there waiting
Just tear down that wall girl
Run away and don't look back
Breakdown that wall
Breakdown that wall
There's someone who needs you
Lady, it's your turn now
Just walk the streets with your head op high
Oh, baby doesn't that feel right
Put a big smile on your face, walk on straight
Yeah, tell the motherfuckers they were wrong
Isn't this your sweetest revenge?
Feels good he! I told you so
Cause every night has a day
Every wish has a prayer
Don't loose your faith
And I'll be holding your hand
Cause it's never too late
There's someone who needs you
[Chorus]
baby
baby
oh
So, break down that wall, babe
Break down that wall babe
There's a new world out there
Tear down that wall babe
Run away, run away, run away
Breakdown that wall
Breakdown that wall
Cause I need you
The other side of me
Do I really want to know myself
Do I want to see
Why I'm wondrin' every morning,
Who's it gonna be today
Staring in the mirror, come tell me,
How's that under my skin
And what's the reason they're here for
Tell me what is my one treu face
Tell me what is my one treu face
But hey here I come
I'm the show's main attraction
I'm a beautiful ceature
That's what I am, yeah that's what I am
But the other side of me
I can't explain why I've become
Negative as can be
I'm wonderin' where it's coming
I know I can't do without it, sure makes me what I am
So I will never stop believin'
In that I love myself someday
In that I love myself someday
But hey here I come
I'm the show's main attraction
I'm a beautiful creature
Yeah that's what I am
Yeah That's what I am...
Don't
No hurry, I'll be waiting for you
My baby, now do't you worry
I'll be fine
Just take your time
To make up your mind
Draw a line
Or flip a dime
Waiting for you
It's easy, if you want to please me
Don't tell me maybe
Cme back home complte me
No strings attached
That's a promise I can keep
So I waste my time
With lazy crazy dreaming
Asparkling wine
A twist of lime
A whisky soda, hole in tme
When you're not here
Don't say you're sorry
Don't say it
No
Don't say you're sorry
R U kiddin' me
Sure got my piece of heaven
An angel in disguise
gone wild
But I thought you were a man
Who knew right from wrong
That's why I really don't understand
Why he's with her
It's killing me
What has she got that I don't have
Is it the way she looks at you
Laughs at you, can she
Does she make you beg for more
This is hurting
What does she got that I don't have
I tried to call him
Anytime anywhere
But he's never there
So I went to his place
Waited all day
So he would explain it to me
And this is what he said
He said:
There is nothing left to say
I had my fill, I went away
Your crying eyes won't change a thing
It was just a fling
Well how could an angel break my heart
He said: We could still be friends
R U kiddin' me?
What has she got that I don't have
Is it the way she looks at you
Talks to you, can she
Does she make you beg for more
This is hurting
What has she got that I don't have
But twice a year
When he's in tears
When he loses his mind
And can't help but cry
He'll call me and then
I am better than I am
Michel
Hey Michel how's life are you okay?
I wonder if you ever think of me.
It's been nine years since that kiss.
I can't help but reminisce
Hey Michel do you remember?
We walked the street to the beat
Hand in hand you and me
Smiling faces, so in love
Hoping that they all could see
That we belonged together, you and me against the world
But we found out the hard way cause it wasn't meant to be
Now it's you and her I see
You were my first and worst love
So it only could go wrong
But ain't that just the way you learn
Hey Michel I just wanted to let you know
That someone else has stole my heart
That doesn't mean I don't think of you
I'm just hoping that she'll treat you right
Do you remember
How we walked the street to the beat
Hand in hand you and me
Smiling faces so in love
Hoping that they all could see
That we belonged together, you and me against the world
But we found out the hard way cause it wasn't meant to be
Now it's you and her I see
It was just a silly dream
Na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
Hey Michel, do you remember?
the dark
I'm walking in the park
And I'm talking to the dark
But there ain't nobody listening
My heart has turned to stone
When I found myself alone
Now all I do is whisper to the dark
There's only so much you can take
You've gotta to give yourself a break
But I don't think you're listening
If you're gonna take it all so hard
You gonna tear yourself apart
I can understand you miss him in the dark
Yeah, teach your heart how to sing get the courage again now
Yeah, take the 10:50pm train to the city
Yeah, I had a chance for romance so I do it again now
If love is no longer being served
You've got to leave the table
Mister aznavour told me, merci beaucoup
Though I miss him, got to let go
Though I miss him, got to let go
Let it go
It's about that time to leave it all behind you
You don't want to but life is passing by you
The hard knocks, got you twisted like dreadlocks
Catalogue your dark and set some new marks
I understand your body's filled with hesitation
Trust me it's gonna be a whole new situation
Turn this page I guess you know what to do
Rise up like phoenix I'm bringing out the beauty in you
Yeah, teach your heart how to sing get the courage again now
Yeah, take the 10:50pm train to the city
Yeah, I had a chance for romance so I do it again now
It wasn't me
Can you tell me how you feel
When you turn on your tv
When you see me singing through my tears
I've saved up all these years
Can you tell me what you see
When you read the magazines
Do you see yourself in me
When you read the magazines
When the DJ plays this song
Can you tell me what you hear
And I hope you feel the way we felt
When you put us all through hell
Can you tell me how you feel now
How do feel, how do you feel
Tell me how you sleep at night
Do you take those pills like me
Or do you toss and turn
and lay your head on the pillow and fall asleep
cause you just don't care,
how do you feel
And now I'm in your face
And you feel that empty space
Why did we how did we come to fall from grace
Falling, falling
Didn't you just hear us calling out
No there's nothing left to say
Cause you shouldn't have stayed away
No man leaves his flesh and blood this way
And I hope you feel the way we felt
When you put us all through hell
Can you tell me how you feel now
How do feel, how do you feel
Tell me how you sleep at night
Do you take those pills like me
Or do you toss and turn
and lay your head on the pillow and fall asleep
cause you just don't care
how do you feel
It took a crowd for me to see
That it really wasn't me
The swaying crowd is the cleansing rain
It took the pain away
And I hope you'll find yourself alone
In a million dollar home
You will be stuck
With a heart like a rock
I hope you run out of luck fool
How do you feel now
Does it hurt, does it hurt
How do you feel now
I'm just wonderin' how it feels
It's so hard
I'm just thinkin' about the child in me
That I sometimes feeling inside
And I'm figuring out just what it is
That makes me feel so small
Is it you that hurts me when I give myself
Every day and every night
Am I too blind too see that it doesn't work out
Did I really ask too much of you baby
Do you mean to tell me that's the way it is
Do you mean to say
It's all so hard,it's so hard
It's all so hard,it's so hard
As I search for an answer,I see the clear blue sky
And I know that you're the one to blame
And I feel so naive
When you say that our love to you was just a game
I dream,my dream,I'm sane,I'm insane
Oh,please don't,please don't speak to me that way
Do you mean to tell me
That's the way it is
Do you mean to say
It's all so hard,it's so hard
It's all so hard,it's so hard
Damned it's so hard,why you're so hard
Why you're so hard,It's tearing me apart
Do you mean to tell me
That's the way it is now
Do you mean to say
It's all so hard,yeah all so hard
Why all so hard as we apart
It's all so hard,it's all so hard
It's all so hard,why all so hard as we apart
So hard,so hard ,so hard ,so hard ,so hard ,so hard ,so hard, so hard.....
Nobody's wife
I'm sorry for the times that I made you scream
For the times that I killed your dreams
For the times that I made your whole world rumble
For the times that I made you cry
For the times that I told you lies
For the times that I watched and let you stumble
[Chorus]
It's too bad, but that's me
What goes around comes around, you'll see
That I can carry the burden of pain
'cause it ain't the first time that a man goes insane
and when I spread my wings to embrace him for life
I'm suckin' out his love, 'cause I, I'll never be nobody's wife
I'm sorry for the times that I didn't come home
Left you lyin' in that bed alone
Was flyin' high in the sky when you needed my shoulder
You're like a stone hangin' round my neck, see
Cut it loose before it breaks my back, see
I've gotta say what I feel before I grow older
I'm sorry but I ain't gonna change my ways
You know I've tried but I'm still the same
I've got to do it my own way
[Chorus] 2x
