I told the preacher don't count on any second coming
God got his ass kicked the first time he came down here slummin'
Tho I don't wonder why, I wonder what he thought it would get us
Hey hey, good bye tomorrow Wendys goin' to die
Hey hey, good bye tomorrow Wendys goin' to die
 
No I can't forget tomorrow
When I think of all my sorrow
When I had you there but then I let you go
And now it's only fair that I should let you know
What you should know

I can't live, if living is without you
I can't live, I can't give anymore
I can't live, if living is without you
I can't give, I can't give anymore
Frigging live that tune. Mariah's version was good but that original just has more power
 
Slip inside the eye of your mind
Don't you know you might find
A better place to play
You say you've never been but all the things you've seen will slowly fade away
........
So Sally can wait, she knows it's too late as we're walking on by
Her soul is sad to wait
But don't look back in anger, I heard you say
 
Night-time is so lonely
When you hear a sound
But it's only an empty heart
Beating on through the night
A sad sad drum
And I'm lying here listening
And the raindrops are all glistening
In my dreams
And it seems
That the sun never comes
And I want my sad reflection
To go drifting through the skies
To be in your eyes
 
No I can't forget tomorrow
When I think of all my sorrow
When I had you there but then I let you go
And now it's only fair that I should let you know
What you should know

I can't live, if living is without you
I can't live, I can't give anymore
I can't live, if living is without you
I can't give, I can't give anymore
This is a great one to work on your breathing.
Try singing the whole of the verse without taking a breath
 
I get so lost, sometimes
Days pass and this emptiness fills my heart
When I want to run away
I drive off in my car
But whichever way I go
I come back to the place you are
 
You walked into the party like you were walking onto a yacht
Your hat strategically dipped below one eye
Your scarf it was apricot
You had one eye in the mirror, as you watched yourself gavotte
And all the girls dreamed that they'd be your partner
They'd be your partner and
You're so vain
You probably think this song is about you
 
I heard that you're settled down
That you found a girl and you're married now
I heard that your dreams came true
Guess she gave you things I didn't give to you
Old friend, why are you so shy?
Ain't like you to hold back or hide from the light

I hate to turn up out of the blue, uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it
I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That, for me, it isn't over
 
And when you breathe,
You breathe for two
And if you think you've finally found the perfect light
I hope it's true
You say you saw him laughing
I hope it's true
I'd like to see it happen
I hope it's true
'Cause I can feel it
I hope it's true
 
Like anyone would be
I am flattered by your fascination with me
.......
Must be strangely exciting
To watch the stoic squirm
........
I don't think you unworthy
I need a moment to deliberate
 
Please remember that I never lied
And please remember how I felt inside now honey
You got to make it your own way but you'll be alright now sugar you'll feel better tomorrow
Come the morning light now, baby
 
No, nothing makes sense, nothing seems to fit
I know you'd hit out if you only knew who to hit
And I'd join the movement
If there was one I could believe in
Yeah I'd break bread and wine
If there was a church I could receive in
'Cause I need it now!
To take the cup, fill it up
To drink it slow
I can't let you go
I must be an acrobat
To talk like this, and act like that
And you can dream so dream out loud
And don't let the bastards grind you down
 
She's got pretty eyes as a pair of jewels
Falling down the Camden
Like a couple drunken criminals
She had a messy bedroom on the edge of town
I had never been good enough
To ever keep around
 
Well, it was kinda cold that night
She stood alone on her balcony (ooh-ooh)
Yeah, she could hear the cars roll by out on 441
Like waves crashing on the beach
 
Too many shadows, whispering voices
Faces on posters, too many choices
If, when, why, what?
How much have you got?
Have you got it, do you get it, if so, how often?
And which do you choose, a hard or soft option?
 
You're a rich girl, and you've gone too far
'Cause you know it don't matter anyway
You can rely on the old man's money
You can rely on the old man's money
It's a bitch, girl, but it's gone too far
'Cause you know it don't matter anyway
Say money, money won't get you too far
Get you too far
 
I remember a girl called Johnny
Black as hell, white as a ghost
"Don't talk about life or death"
She said "I've had enough of both"
A girl called Johnny, who was not scared
They would have torn her to pieces but
Who would dare?
 
Oh, thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
Say, women, they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean, you'll know
You'll know

Now here I go again, I see the crystal visions
I keep my visions to myself
It's only me who wants to wrap around your dreams
And have you any dreams you'd like to sell?
Dreams of loneliness
 
Oh, thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
Say, women, they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean, you'll know
You'll know

Now here I go again, I see the crystal visions
I keep my visions to myself
It's only me who wants to wrap around your dreams
And have you any dreams you'd like to sell?
Dreams of loneliness
Would love to sing this as a duet with someone
 
You're lost, little girl
You're lost, little girl
You're lost
Tell me who are you?

Think that you know what to do
Impossible? Yes, but it's true
I think that you know what to do, yeah
Sure that you know what to do
 
Big ol' jet airliner
Don't carry me too far away-ay
Big'ol jet airliiiiner
Cuz it's here that i got to stay

Bum bum wow wah yaya 🎸
Bum bum wow wah yaya 🎸
 
What the hell is wrong with you tonight?
I can't seem to say or do the right thing
Wanted to be sure you're feeling right
Wanted to be sure we want the same thing

She said, "I can't believe it
You can't possibly mean it
Don't we all want the same thing?
Don't we?
Well, who said anything about love?"
