"Isolation"

"Isolation"


People say we got it made don't they know we're so afriad
we're afraid to be alone, everbody got to have a home
Isolation

Just a boy and a little girl
trying to change the whole wide world
Isolation

All the world is a little town
everybody trying to put us down
Isolation

I don't expect you to understand
after you caused so much pain
But the again you're not to blame
your just a human, a victim of the insane

We're afrain of everyone, afraid of the sun
Isolation

The Sun will never disappear
but the world my not have many years
Isolation

"It's All Over But The Shoutin'"

"It's All Over But The Shoutin'"


Said it's all over but the shoutin' ya'll
It's all over but the shoutin' ya'll
After many sleepless nights alone
Believin' lies about where you've been gone
Well I hear the people whisper
Why's he never with her
And quickly hanging up their phone

Oh I put them all together
And it spelled sadness forever
And if I'm gonna change my fate
I'm gonna get out before it's too late
Said it's all over but the shoutin' ya'll
Well, well, well it's all over but the shoutin' ya'll

So pretend to be surprised
About the love that I've been denied
Once I thought that we could make it
But I couldn't fake it
So I'd rather let the whole thing ride
Oh and maybe in some time
I'll free your memory from my mind
Oh 'cause there's no turning back the clock
I've put you down boy
You've been counted out
And it's all over but the shoutin' ya'll
It's all over but the shoutin'

So if every thing's been said
I'll go prepare for the road ahead
Though at first I'll be regretting
Soon I'll start regretting
Till you're finally out of my head

Oh and one day, if I'm lucky
Someone's gonna come and love me oh
And fill my life with love each day
Till then all I have to say
That it's all, it's all over
Said it's all over
Said it's all over but the shoutin' ya'll
Well, well, well it's all over

"It's Only Love"

"It's Only Love"


It's never too late to turn a night into day
I'll meet you halfway and we'll see it through
We're just standing here
There's only me and you
Don't tell me you don't feel it
Cause I feel it too

Well these dreams we can use
Gods grace is living proof
We'll take the time, and get it right

So come on, come on, come on
I know we can make it
I'll hold you in my arms
It's only love that keeps us strong
So come on, come on, come on
So much we've wasted
We're right where we belong
I't only love that keeps us strong

Never too late to finally take a second chance
And I saw mine, when I saw you
Everything changed the moment we began again
Our broken hearts were pulling through
Something real, something close
Helped us feel, and let us go
So here we are, now we know

So come on, come on, come on
I know we can make it
I'll hold you in my arms
It's only love that keeps us strong
So come on, come on, come on
So much time we've wasted
We're right where we belong
I't only love that keeps us strong

I have been a beggar
And yu have been a fool
We've been lost beyond repair
But you have touched my soul
And I have bent your rules
Only love could save us
Show us what we're made of

So come on, come on, come on
I know we can make it
I'll hold you in my arms
It's only love that keeps us strong
So come on, come on, come on
So much time we've wasted
We're right where we belong
I't only love that keeps us strong

"Jack-A-Diamonds"

"Jack-A-Diamonds"


Jack-a-Diamonds
Jack-a-Diamonds
Take my money
You can have
My life of luxury
You can have my precious
Silver studded saddle
But you can't have my soul
Cannot have my soul today

Sweet mama
Oh sweet mama
Say you'll love me
Let me hold you
Hold you in my arms
Please tell me
I'm not really not fallin'
To pieces (oh no)
Keep me tender, mama
Tender now, keep me warm

Jack-a-Diamonds
Jack-a-Diamonds
I still got my ace
If you want me to do it
I can throw it
Straight in your face
You can stuff your trade
Union bull-shit up your kyber
But you can't have my soul
Cannot have my soul today

Jack-a-Diamonds
Jack-a-Diamonds
Gonna be alright
Going down the road

"Jamaica Say You Will"

"Jamaica Say You Will"


Jamaica was the lovely one, I played her well
As we lay in the tall grass where the shadows fell
Hiding from the children so they would not tell
We would stay there 'till her sister rang the evening bell

Jamaica, say you will
Help me find a way to fill these empty hours
Say you will come again tomorrow

The daughter of a captain on the rolling seas
She would stare across the water from the trees
Last time he was home he held her on his knees
And said the next time they would sail away just where they pleased

Jamaica, say you will
Help me find a way to fill these lifeless sails
And stay until my ships can find the sea

Jamaica was a sweet young one, I loved her true
She was a comfort and a mercy through and through
Hiding from this world together, next thing I knew
We had brought her things down to the bay
- what could I do

Jamaica, say you will
Help me find a way to fill these sails
And we will sail until our waters have run dry

"Jealous Guy"

"Jealous Guy"


I was dreaming of the past
And my heart was beating fast
I began to lose control
I began to lose control

I didn't mean to hurt you
I'm sorry that I made you cry
Oh no, I didn't want to hurt you
I'm just a jealous guy

I was feeling insecure
You might not love me anymore
I was shivering inside
I was shivering inside

I didn't mean to hurt you
I'm sorry that I made you cry
Oh no, I didn't want to hurt you
I'm just a jealous guy

I didn't mean to hurt you
I'm sorry that I made you cry
Oh no, I didn't want to hurt you
I'm just a jealous guy

I was trying to catch your eyes
Thought that you was trying to hide
I was swallowing my pain
I was swallowing my pain

I didn't mean to hurt you
I'm sorry that I made you cry
Oh no, I didn't want to hurt you
I'm just a jealous guy, watch out
I'm just a jealous guy, look out babe
I'm just a jealous guy

"Just Like A Woman"

"Just Like A Woman"


Nobody feels any pain
Tonight as I stand here in the rain.
Everybody knows that baby's got new clothes,
But lately I see her ribbons and her bows
Have fallen from her curls.

She takes just like a woman.
She makes love just like a woman.
And then she aches just like a woman.
But she breaks just like a little girl.

Queen Mary, she's my friend.
Yes I believe I'll go see her again.
Nobody has to guess that baby can't be blessed
'Till she finally sees that she's like all the rest
With her fog, her amphetamines, and her pearls.

She takes just like a woman.
She makes love just like a woman.
And then she aches just like a woman.
But she breaks just like a little girl.

It raining at first, and I was dying there of thirst,
So I came in here.
And your long-time curse hurts, but what's worse
Is this pain in here.
I can't stay in here.
Ain't it clear...

That I just can't fit.
I believe it's time for us to quit.
But when we met again and are introduced as friends,
Please don't let on that you knew me when
I was hungry, and it was your world.

You take just like a woman.
You make love just like a woman.
And then you ache just like a woman.
But you break just like a little girl.

"Just Like Always"

"Just Like Always"


Every year when this day rolls around
I think of the night we both tore up the town
And I wonder if your're laughing with your eyes glowing
Making pretty conversation where the wine's flowing
And running and playing just like always

Every day at least one time
I picture your face in the back of my mind
Smiling at the ocean with your eyes shining
Your hair's a red river and it's all mine
You're a thousand days, just like always

Maybe someday I really will forget
Maybe start to live again a life without regret
Funny isn't it, but the man ain't laughing yet
Does love really last forever
Does the ocean miss the sunset everytime

I pass your street, I look both ways
So incomplete
And I think that I might see you
Lord knows I won't
I wish that you would call me
But I know you won't
But I love you anyway
Just like always
Just like always
Just like always

"Just Pass It On"

"Just Pass It On"


You don't owe me, ha! I'll be hoping, ha!
I'll be praying, ha!
Toombo iso, ha! toombo iso, ha!
Toombo iso, ha!

You don't owe me, you don't owe me a solitary thing.
If I lend a hand it's 'cause I choose to.
You don't owe me.

(Just pass it on.) Pass it on, pass it on. (Pass it on.)
Help make the world go round. (Pass it on.)
Pass it on to who ever you need, they won't owe you.
Toombo iso, ha! toombo iso, ha!

I'll be hoping, I'll be hoping for the big one out of the blue,
When it comes I want it to come to you.
I'll be hoping.

(Just pass it on.) Pass it on, pass it on. (Pass it on.)
Hope makes the world go round. (Pass it on.)
Pass it on to who ever you need, they won't owe you.
Toombo iso, ha! toombo iso, ha!

I'll be praying, I'll be praying that the best will come your way.
And when it comes that's going to make my day.
I'll be praying.

(Just pass it on.) Pass it on, pass it on. (Pass it on.)
Hope makes the world go round. (Pass it on.)
Pass it on to who ever you need, they won't owe you.
You don't owe me, no you don't.

I'll be hoping, ha!
I'll be praying, ha!
Toombo iso, ha! toombo iso...

"Just To Keep From Drowning"

"Just To Keep From Drowning"


I went down to the river
Just to see if it would rain
I looked down in the water
I could not believe my eyes
A face and a reflection
Was staring back at me ahah
And it scares me just to think
About the power that this woman has on me

Just to keep from drowning
I get down on my knees to pray
Just to keep from drowning
I'll do anything you say
Help me now
Help me now

It rained the day I met her
I should have known that was a sign
But I couldn't see the weather
That woman almost made me blind
I wanted her to love me
Now all I want is to be free
And it scares me just to think
About the power that this woman has on me

Just to keep from drowning
I'll do anything I can
Just to keep from drowning
Lord I need a helping hand
Help me now
Help me now

I hear the river call my name
But the water's dark and cold
I see your face
And I'm afraid this time
That I will lose my soul
I will lose my soul
I might lose my soul
Help me
Help me now

Just to keep from drowning
I get down on my knees to pray
Just to keep from drowning
I'll do anything you say
Help me now
Help me please

What else's gonna save me from drowning here
Just to deliver me
Keep from drowning
I get on my knees to pray
Just to free my soul
Just to keep from drowning
You know I'd do anything you say woman
Ooh
Have me talking baby
Drowning
Drowning

Can't we
Living like it should
With unbroken heart
I'd do anything

Just to keep from drowning
Just to keep from burning down
I get on my knees to pray

I said it scares me
Just to think about you woman
How will she help for me
I gotta keep from drowning
