(This is for you, Daddy.)
I took my love and I took it down I climbed a mountain and I turned around And I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills 'Til the landslide brought me down Oh, mirror in the sky What is love? Can the child within my heart rise above? Can I sail thru the changing ocean tides? Can I handle the seasons of my life? Mmm Mmm... I don't know... Mmm Mmm... Mmm Mmm... Well, I've been afraid of changing 'Cause I've built my life around you But time makes you bolder Children get older I'm getting older too So... (Guitar solo) I've been afraid of changing 'Cause I, I´ve built my life around you But time makes you bolder Children get older I'm getting older too... I'm getting older too... So, take this love, take it down Oh if you climb a mountain and you turn around If you see my reflection in the snow covered hills Well the landslide will bring you down, down And If you see my reflection in the snow covered hills Well maybe... The landslide will bring you down Well well... the landslide will bring you down |
I thought I saw a man brought to life He was warm He came around and he was dignified He showed me what it was to cry Well you couldn't be that man I adored You don't seem to know Or seem to care what your heart is for Well I don't know him anymore There's nothing where he used to lie My conversation has run dry That's what's going on Nothing's fine I'm torn I'm all out of faith This is how I feel I'm cold and I am shamed Lying naked on the floor Illusion never changed Into something real I'm wide awake And I can see The perfect sky is torn You're a little late I'm already torn So I guess the fortune teller's right I should have seen just what was there And not some holy light But you crawled beneath my veins And now I don't care I have no luck I don't miss it all that much There's just so many things That I can't touch I'm torn I'm all out of faith This is how I feel I'm cold and I am shamed Lying naked on the floor Illusion never changed Into something real I'm wide awake And I can see The perfect sky is torn You're a little late I'm already torn |
They're extraordinary, so better be wary
because they come in every shape and size, size, size, size If honey's what you covet you'll find that they love it because they'll guzzle up the thing you prize! |
I recognize the walls inside
I recognize them all I've paced between them Chasing demons down Until they fall In fitful sleep Enough to keep their strength Enough to crawl Into my head With tangled threads They riddle me to solve Again and again and again |
. . . maybe not from the directions
You are staring at twist your head around it's all around you all is full of love. . . |
burn
Do you wanna be a poet and write
Do you wanna be an actor up in lights Do you wanna be a soldier and fight for love Do you wanna travel the world Do you wanna be a diver for pearls Or climb a mountain and touch the clouds above Be anyone you want to be Bring to life your fantasies But I want something in return I want you to burn, burn for me baby Like a candle in my night Oh burn Burn for me Burn for me Are you gonna be a gambler and deal Are you gonna be a doctor and heal Or go to heaven and touch God's face Are you gonna be a dreamer who sleeps Are you gonna be a sinner who weeps Or an angel Under grace I'll lay down on your bed of coals Offer up my heart and soul But in return I want you to burn Burn for me baby Like a candle in my night Oh burn, burn for me, burn for me Yeah Ooh I want you to burn baby ooh Laugh for me Cry for me Pray for me Lie for me Live for me Die for me I want you to burn Burn for me baby Like a candle in my night Oh burn, burn for me, burn for me Yeah Ah yeah I want you to burn I want you to burn for me baby Ohh yeah |
Quiero que tus sueños y los mios se encuentren en el tiempo,
Y quiero ser tu pensamiento y quiero ser Y encontrarte cuando el sol se oculte allá detrás del cerro Ay descubrirte con mis besos y entregarte el corazón. |
Men walkin' 'long the railroad tracks Goin' someplace there's no goin' back Highway patrol choppers comin' up over the ridge Hot soup on a campfire under the bridge Shelter line stretchin' round the corner Welcome to the new world order Families sleepin' in their cars in the southwest No home no job no peace no rest The highway is alive tonight But nobody's kiddin' nobody about where it goes I'm sittin' down here in the campfire light Searchin' for the ghost of Tom Joad He pulls prayer book out of his sleeping bag Preacher lights up a butt and takes a drag Waitin' for when the last shall be first and the first shall be last In a cardboard box 'neath the underpass Got a one-way ticket to the promised land You got a hole in your belly and gun in your hand Sleeping on a pillow of solid rock Bathin' in the city aqueduct The highway is alive tonight But where it's headed everybody knows I'm sittin' down here in the campfire light Waitin' on the ghost of Tom Joad Now Tom said "Mom, wherever there's a cop beatin' a guy Wherever a hungry newborn baby cries Where there's a fight 'gainst the blood and hatred in the air Look for me Mom I'll be there Wherever there's somebody fightin' for a place to stand Or decent job or a helpin' hand Wherever somebody's strugglin' to be free Look in their eyes Mom you'll see me." The highway is alive tonight But nobody's kiddin' nobody about where it goes I'm sittin' downhere in the campfire light With the Ghost of ol' Tom Joad. |
She's come undone
She didn't know what she was headed for And when I found what she was headed for It was too late She's come undone She found a mountain that was far too high And when she found out she couldn't fly It was too late It's too late She's gone too far She's lost the sun She's come undone She wanted truth but all she got was lies Came the time to realize And it was too late She's come undone She didn't know what she was headed for And when I found what she was headed for Mama, it was too late It's too late She's gone too far She's lost the sun She's come undone Too many mountains, and not enough stairs to climb Too many churches and not enough truth Too many people and not enough eyes to see Too many lives to lead and not enough time It's too late She's gone too far She's lost the sun She's come undone (Doe-doe-doe-doe-doe doe un doe-doe-doe un doe-doe-doe) (Doe doe-doe-doe-doe un doe-doe-doe doe-doe-doe) (Doe doe-doe-doe doe doe-doe-doe doe doe) [break] It's too late She's gone too far She's lost the sun She's come undone She didn't know what she was headed for And when I found what she was headed for It was too late She's come undone She found a mountain that was far too high And when she found out she couldn't fly Mama, it was too late It's too late She's gone too far She's lost the sun She's come undone (No no-no-no-no-no no) (Doe doe doe-doe) |
Te lo agradezco pero no
Te lo agradezco mira niña pero no Yo ya logré dejarte aparte No hago otra cosa que olvidarte Te lo agradezco pero no... |
In this quiet little place
I can't remember having known a different pace In this quiet little place I can surrender to the beauty of its face... |
. . . i tip-toe down to the shore
stand by the ocean make it roar at me and i roar back. . . |
Just before our love got lost you said, "I am as constant as the northern star." And I said, "Constantly in the darkness? Where's that?" |
Look to the heavens, you can look to the sky,
You can find redemption staring back into your eyes. There is protection and there's peace the same Burning your ticket for that long black train. |
"Into the ocean, end it all..
...into the ocean, end it all.." |

Here I'm going Walkin' with my baby in my arms 'Cuz I am at the wrong end of the eight ball black And the devil, see, he's right behind us And this worker said she's gonna take my little baby My little angel back But they won't getcha, 'Cuz I'm right here witcha On the night train |
Quote:
You and me and the devil makes three Don't need no other loving, baby. |
Quote:
Now the tailpipe spit and the engine roared The tailpipe spit and the engine roared I's waving out the Plymouth door And the devil had a hold of me The devil had a hold of me The old folks saw the last they'd see The devil had a hold of me |
Quote:
When I strap on my boots And I slip on my suit You see the vixen in me Becomes an angel for you. Some days I'm a super bitch Up to my old tricks But it won't last forever. Next day I'm your super girl Out to save the world And it keeps getting better. |
Quote:
You look a sight, sure you look great Your stocking seams, not even straight And that old faded dressing gown Your hair in curlers hanging down What could I have been thinking of Was it with you I fell in love Are you the girl that could inspire A heart with passion and desire I gaze at you in sheer despair And see your Mother standing there In front of strangers you're the same You don't mind putting me to shame You contradict each word I say Why, you would turn night into day You like to hurt me when you can I'm just a rug and not your man I hit the jackpot, yes, I know You've let yourself go I couldn't hate you if I tried I really want you by my side So try, try and be the girl I knew Let's really start our love anew I want to hold you in my arms And then surrender to your charms Let there be fire, not just a glow Come close to me, let yourself go |
Quote:
Right here, right now I give my life to live again I'll break free, take me My everything, I surrender all to you. |
Quote:
Now when we first met you promised you'd get a house on the hill with a pool well, this trailer stays wet and we're swimming in debt and you want me to go back to school I bought these new heel, did my nails had my hair done just right I thought this new dress was a sure bet for romance tonight well, it's perfectly clear between the TV and beer I won't get so much as a kiss And as I head out the door, I turn around to be sure Did I shave my legs for this? |
Quote:
When it’s been out of sight and out of mind for such a long time That’s how one forgets. So I reached in the back of my closet, pulled it out And tried it on and it still fits. Some cover their pain up with Lots of MAC make-up But I can’t help but blush. |
Quote:
In your red lipstick and lilac kercheif You're the most pretty lady in the world |
Quote:
Loose lips might sink ships but loose kisses take trips to San Francisco, double dutch disco, Tech tv hottie, do it for scotty Do it for the living and do it for the dead Do it for the monsters under your bed Do it for the teenagers and do it for your mom Broken hearts hurt but they make us strong and We won't stop until somebody calls the cops And even then we'll start again and just pretend that Nothing ever happened. |
The absolute best of Tina Arena, imo, besides Burn
Chains
Your arms are warm but they make me feel As if they're made of cold, cold steel A simple kiss like a turnin' key A little click and the lock's on me Can't move my arms, can't lift my hands I won't admit to where I am But I know baby, I'm in chains I'm in chains I pretend I can always leave Free to go whenever I please But then the sound of my desperate calls Echo off these dungeon walls I've crossed the line from mad to sane A thousand times and back again I love you baby, I'm in chains I'm in chains I'm in chains I'm in chains Should have known passing through the gate That once inside I could not escape I never thought this could happen to me Never thought this is where I'd be But baby, baby, baby, look at me Baby, baby, look at me, I'm in chains I'm in chains I never thought this is where I'd be Never thought this could happen to me No Shame It took me twenty years to stand up straight and tall It took me all of twenty seconds for everything to fall I don't worry about my pride anymore 'Cause pride is something, I just can't afford I'd go beggin' in the rain If I could spare you any pain When it comes to you, I have no shame No shame, no shame There's no life by your side, I wouldn't live There's no sin you could commit that I would not forgive I don't try to understand anymore 'Cause I just know my world begins at your door If I could keep you from the cold If I could make your tears my own I'd do anything, I have no shame No shame - for the first time in my life No shame - to get it right for you I wouldn't think twice No shame - nothin' I won't sacrifice There's nothing I won't do baby To get you through the night Fallin', fallin' I'll be there to reach you baby To catch you when you're cryin' I'll be callin', I'll be callin' With a love for you that no name I have no shame I'd go beggin' in the rain If I could spare you any pain When it comes to you, I have no shame No shame - for the first time in my life No shame - to get it right for you I wouldn't think twice No shame - nothin' I won't sacrifice There's nothing I won't do baby To get you through the night Sixteen Years I'm leaving now Sixteen years and comes to this Parting lines and a final kiss Your hands are shaking A cab waits in the rain Now I've never felt more alone I can't believe that these days are gone After all that we've begun You say you'll be there I just have to call Must you choose between Me and all your dreams When you can be free right here with me Those sixteen years Don't they mean anything to you How can you leave With so much to lose When you walk away You're taking the morning from my day Show me the pain That's inside of you I need to understand Sixteen years now, my thoughts run wild How you held me like a child I'll fight these tears But I can hide the way I feel When you find what you want Isn't it all you need When you wanna run right back to me Those sixteen years Don't they mean anything to you How can you leave There's so much to lose Oh, when you walk away You're taking the morning from my day Show me the pain that's inside of you Time moves on And you'll be gone And I hold on to the finer things I need to keep me strong But one sweet day We'll put them all away I'll hope you know that no one stays the same Those sixteen years Don't they mean anything to you How can you leave There's so much to lose Yeah When you walk away You're taking the morning from my day Show me the pain that's inside of you I need to understand Someday you'll understand Yes you will Show Me Heaven There you go Flashing fever from your eyes Hey babe Come over here and shut them tight I'm not denying We're flying above it all Hold my hand Don't let me fall You've such amazing grace I've never felt this way Oh, show me heaven, cover me Leave me breathless Oh, show me heaven please Here I go I'm shaking just like the breeze Hey babe I need your head to steady me I'm not denying I'm frightened a much as you Though I'm barely touching you I've shivers down my spine, and it feels divine Oh, show me heaven, cover me Leave me breathless Oh, show me heaven please Do you know what it's like to dream a dream Baby hold me tight and let this be Oh, show me heaven, cover me Leave me breathless Oh, show me heaven please If I Was a River If I was the sun I would shine my light To light your world If I was the rain I would wash your tears away I keep your world right Be your light in the night If I was the sky I would rain down love into your life If I was a river You would be my ocean Every stream would lead me to your arms And if If I was a river I'll flow to you forever Love would run forever in this heart of mine If I, if I If I was a river If I was the wind I would carry you Above the clouds And if I was the earth I would be your solid ground If I could I'll be All you ever would need I would be your world You're the only world there is for me If I was a river You would be my ocean Every stream would lead me to your arms And if If I was a river I'll flow to you forever Love would run forever in this heart of mine If I, if I If I was a river I'll run into your arms Into your arms Oh yeah I'll run to you baby Oh yeah If I was a river You would be my ocean Every stream would lead me to your arms And if If I was a river I'll flow to you forever Love would run forever in this heart of mine If I, if I If I was a river |
“Wrong Side of Town” Tell me a story about something pretty A guardian angel up in the sky And make me believe you no hill for a climber Ask me no questions and tell you no lies I’m hanging on, my mouth hanging open World spinning faster, round and round Hey what’s the matter, you look unexpected Like you took a right turn on the wrong side of town You left the light on looking so hopeful You’re just pretending you know what you’ve done Crying your heart out, nobody’s looking It’s not getting better, we’re not having fun I'm hanging on,my mouth hanging open World spinning faster, round and round Hey what's the matter,you look unexpected Like you took a right turn on the wrong side of town Jesus was wrong about all the sinners That we’d take a stump for a sign of the times Running for shelter like nobody’s business You don’t even notice the face of the sky So many answers just loose talking whispers Pick up some pieces and gobble them down Don’t talk in words so I won’t understand you Hold up your fingers and cry like a clown |
No more politics I know what's next call me hypocrite and burn down bridges
I got a river running through my neck I got a river running through my heart And all the blood it spills, runs to the ocean While the oceans rise up, mingle with the air Growing finger tips and the semen stained covers Singing mercy me, oh God, oh ecstasy, oh yeah right there Fantastic chick strawberry hips light me a candle blow out my wish Unconscious ear turns towards the sun knows where the warmth is knows what it wants Wants to be filled in wants to be filled up wanna be reborn wanna be reloved All the babies born swim from the ocean While the rain that falls runs into the sea growing crazy mixed up frogs preach the coming of disaster singing mercy me oh God oh hell and ecstasy El Dorado blues nowhere left the run grandma got plutonium under the rug Fanatical bliss fanatical fire fanatics don't let their babies go dancing You repress the beach you repress the wine your mama mistook you for a lion She cut off your head she don't know you're dead and all the streets you ruled run red Mmmm the grass grows green where the homeless man sleeps and the mystic sneezes rain showers are like your polka dotted panties and the heat grows desire as her white back arches under a hot blue sky sunny afternoon in the park No more politics I know whats next You call me hypocrite Come on burn in down |

I'm just a normal boy
That sank when I fell overboard My ship would leave the country But I'd rather swim ashore Without a life vest I'd be stuck again Wish I was much more masculine Maybe then I could learn to swim Like 'fourteen miles away' Now floating up and down I spin, colliding into sound Like whales beneath me diving down I'm sinking to the bottom of my Everything that freaks me out The lighthouse beam has just run out I'm cold as cold as cold can be... be... I want to swim away but don't know how Sometimes it feels just like I'm falling in the ocean Let the waves up, take me down Let the hurricane set in motion, yeah Let the rain of what I feel right now come down Let the rain come down Where is the coastguard? I keep looking each direction For a spotlight, give me something I need something for protection Maybe flotsam, junk will do just fine the jetsam sunk, I'm left behind I'm treading for my life, believe me (How can I keep up this breathing?) Not knowing how to think I scream aloud, begin to sink My legs and arms are broken down With envy for the solid ground I'm reaching for the life within me How can one man stop his ending I thought of just your face Relaxed, and floated into space I want to swim away but don't know how Sometimes it feels just like I'm falling in the ocean Let the waves up, take me down Let the hurricane set in motion, yeah Let the rain of what I feel right now come down Let the rain come down Now waking to the sun I calculate what I had done Like jumping from the bow, yeah Just to prove I knew how, yeah It's midnight's late reminder of The loss of her, the one I love My will to quickly end it all Set front row in my need to fall Into the ocean, end it all Into the ocean, end it all Into the ocean, end it all Into the ocean...end it all [Zayra] Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye) Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye) Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye) I want to swim away but don't know how Sometimes it feels just like I'm falling in the ocean Let the waves take me down Let the hurricane set in motion, yeah Let the rain of what I feel right now come down Let the rain come down Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye) (Into space) Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye) Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye) Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye) Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye) Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye) (I thought of just your face) Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye) Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye) Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye) Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye) |

Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue, And the dreams that you dare to dream Really do come true. |
Are you breathing
What I'm breathing Are your wishes The same as mine Are you needing What I'm needing I'm waiting for a sign My hands tremble My heart aches Is it you calling Is it you calling If I'm alone in this I don't think I can face The consequences of falling Are you thinking What I'm thinking Does your pulse Quicken like mine Are you dreaming What I'm dreaming I can't read your mind One step towards you Two steps back Feels like I'm crawling Feels like I'm crawling If I'm alone in this I don't think I can face The consequences of falling |
Tracing angels half asleep
Counting heartbeats four feet deep Distant sirens drawing near Will they find me lying here... |
And she was Blinded by the light.
wrapped up like a douche, another runner in the night. |
One night when I was feelin' all alone
I saw a shadow walking in the danger zone I knew that I would have to make a choice Hunger in my heart, hunger in my spirit We won't be free until we equalize The price of power to the price of every life And though I know it's gonna take some time Someday we're all gonna find Love and compassion |
I stand here a black man I have no history I was brought up in East Chicago And I grew up on the streets The chains around the playground were the chains around my heart The brand upon my shoulder Well it reminds you who you are And it all comes true Yes it all comes true Like a wheel inside a wheel It turns on you And you think, What have I done? What can I do? What you believe about yourself It all comes true I was just a young girl My mother called me "Hon" My father was unhappy 'Cause I should have been his son They said, "Learn to be a waitress and learn to be a wife And be thankful for a chance to live an ordinary life" And it all comes true Yes it all comes true Like a wheel inside a wheel It turns on you And you think, What have I done? What can I do? What you believe about yourself It all comes true My life is a contradiction of sorrow and desire I drag my heart across the ash to throw it on the fire Maybe there's a reason and could there be a plan Or are we all just fools to think we'll understand And it all comes true Yes it all comes true Like a wheel inside a wheel It turns on you And you think, What have I done? What can I do? What you believe about yourself It all comes true And it all comes true Yes it all comes true Like a wheel inside a wheel It turns on you And you think, What have I done? What can I do? What you believe about yourself It all comes true |
So don't become some background noise
A backdrop for the girls and boys Who just don't know or just don't care And just complain when you're not there You had your time, you had the power You've yet to have your finest hour... |
