I pay the price for cheap advice

Sick of leaving in the morning
With the night you gave away
So now I'm gonna take that all that I can get
With those angel eyes
You make saints do sins all the time

Say I'm gonna stay, home and away, well well,
When I said I'd catch you when you're falling
I'd have my heart open wide
And you who's not naive I thought
Say I thought I'd mend my heart

People say I'm so automatic
People say I'm not so systematic
When I'm down I'm in manual, lord
And time on time again I walk on by
With the look of love

And with those angel eyes, woh woh
You set me on fire baby
And with those angel eyes, woh woh
C'mon now baby

The saddest thing I've ever seen on my tv screen
Was a dying man who died for his dream
Toughest thing I've ever heard
Was that new-born scream in this naked world

People say I'm so automatic
People say I'm not so systematic
When I'm down I'm in manual, lord
And time on time again I walk on by
With the look of love

And with those angel eyes, woh woh
You set me on fire baby
And with those angel eyes, woh woh
C'mon now baby

Say I'm gonna stay home and away
Show a little loving that'll make you shine girl
Say I'm gonna stay home and away

People say that I'm so automatic
People say I'm not so systematic
When I'm down I'm in manual, lord
Been all around those edges
But ain't never been in love
Ain't never been in love before babe
Never been in love
Never been in love

Set me on fire, baby

And with those angel eyes, woh woh
Set me on fire, fire

And with those angel eyes, woh woh
Set me on fire, fire

. . .



Oh, this time
I'm not gonna let you get away
Oh, this time
I'll find a way to make you stay
When I say I love you
I'm serious,
Coz this time

Oh, this time
I'll make this house a happy home
There's nothing to change about you girl
Coz this time

This time
I won't listen to what my friends say
Oh, this time
Gonna do everything my way
Oh, this time
I'll change my attitude
Oh, this time
I'll make all your dreams come true
This time
I won't stand to see you cry before I leave
Girl you know I'd rather die
When the sun beats through my window
I'll be loving you and you'll be loving me
This time

This time
I won't listen to what my friends say
Oh, this time
Gonna do everything my way
Oh, this time
I'll change my attitude
Oh, this time
I'll make all your dreams come true
This time
I won't stand to see you cry before I leave
Girl you know I'd rather die
When the sun beats through my window
I'll be loving you and you'll be loving me
This time

Oh this time
Oh this time, oh please please stay
Oh this time, oh please please stay

. . .



City wins another fight
To take the day into the nite
My shadows been around for too long
Daylight understands me, the part that's not alone
Hide 'n' seek they try to be discreet
Moonlight walks with me, sunset talks to me
But all I want from you is a brand new sunrise
Silently keeping what they are keeping
Moonclouds are flocking, streetlamps mockin'
Time to work it out somehow
But the day whispers someone
The nite moves so slowly
He won't take it out on his head
Nite walks away with the summer
Day gives into the fall
Moonlite walks with me
Sunset talks to me
But all I want from you is a brand new sunrise

. . .



Stop your pretending
Listen to what I've got to say
How your head's went away
Only here for a day
And that grave I just made
Is for me when I get paid

Won't you wait a while
Move to the blue
Sometimes people don't want to say
Old time dancers don't die that way
See that grave I've just made
It's for me when I get paid

Somebody's gotta hold back the river
Somebody like you

Do you love and surrender
Sometimes I don't feel I can remember
I think it's fair to mention
About the days when I get paid

Somebody's gotta hold back the river
Somebody like you
Somebody's gotta hold back the river
Somebody like you

I want a little loving
I told you all to listen
But you never liked what you heard
I take what I am given
This may sound absurd
I share a double vision
That started the transition

Hey where's jimmy jazz
Steady on the scale

I told you to listen
I told you all to listen

Somebody's gotta hold back the river
Somebody like you
Somebody's gotta hold back the river
Somebody like you

You know that somebody
You know that somebody
You know that somebody
But it ain't you

. . .



I was born by the river
So I know where the river runs dry
I couldn't last forever

Accused just for living
But I know that the living was right
I couldn't last forever
Look at me making movies
Making living like I've never lived before

And the people wanting out of the river
Like a poor boy really should

Now I can sit and stand it
Like other people do
What you do for me I'll do for you, yeah

Now I can sit and stand it
Like other people do
What is blue for me, is blue for you

There's a man who I know
You know he's got a fist full of dirty dollars
And I know they won't last forever
Does he really know what people are saying
Always feeling sure what he is there saying
But the other's disappear he was alone

Now I can sit and stand it
Like other people do
What you do for me I'll do for you

Now I can sit and stand it
Like other people do
What is blue for me, is blue for you

I go back to the river
Cause I know where the river runs dry
I couldn't last forever
Take the night making movies
Like a villain never ever seen the night of day
Don't you know that I can't last forever

Now I can sit and stand it
Like other people do
What you do for me I'll do for you

Now I can sit and stand it
Like other people do
What is blue for me, is blue for you

Now I can sit and stand it
Like other people do
What is blue for me, is kind of blue for you, yeah

Hello I'm going down
You know I don't want to wear no pretty crown
Help people I'm going down

. . .



You can hear me so clearly
And see how I try
You feel me, so heal me
And tear me apart

I won't tell a soul
I won't tell at all
Do they have to know
About my goodnight girl

Caught up in your wishin' well
You hopes and sadness
Take your love 'n' promises
And make them last

You keep me so near you
And see me so far
And hold me and send me
And deep in your heart

It doesn't matter how sad
I made you
Doesn't matter how hard
I try

Just remember the same
Old reason
Reflected in your eyes
You said you wanted me

Caught up in your wishin' well
Your hopes and sadness
Take your love 'n' promises
And make them last

. . .



Hey there mr. taxi driver
Take me to the station
I've been around for too long

You said I lack understanding
That I don't know right from wrong
But oh no

There's a road that a man has to take
There's a road and it's filled with my mistakes
Ooh baby! don't misunderstand me

How long will it take
How long can you wait
Tell me how long
When we are living in a world
Of loves imagination

Senorita plays for the people who bother
Outside those old department stores
She's singing out loud for no reason
About a travelling man she's been hanging around
But oh no

There's a road that a man has to take
There's a road and it's filled with my mistakes
Ooh baby, don't you misunderstand me

How long will it take
How long can you wait
Tell me how long
When we are living in a world
Of loves imagination

So I should beg for some forgiveness
Borrowed time
'cause someone else can wait that long again
If only you'll be leavin'
Tell me just ...
How long

. . .



Gotta gotta know
I see the sun in your eyes
Let me take your hand
And we'll go to wonderland
Bet you've asked silly questions
Like do I still love you
Better than eating, honey

Cos you're the girl from the east of the river

They all went mad on the way out west end
But we've all bet our bottom dollar
That my archfull flame
Will win you over
Cos I'm the lie
That tells the truth

Cos you're the girl from the east of the river

Where all the grass is greener
And out pockets
Are all paved with gold
Please turn to gold
Please return to old east of the river
But it won't work with nobody but you

Cos you're the girl from the east of the river

. . .



Hurry won't you hurry

Light my eye with your smile
Cross my palm with your thought
For the hand that meets the eye
Brings you closer to my mind
Cos in one crowded hour
You plan to make all the moments
(plan to make all the moments)
Last a lifetime

I can give you everything
I can give you everything
I can give you everything
That I want to give

All alone in the heat of the night
Say come on lets be strong
Kindle my soul
For you are my pride and joy

For it is precious
Sing rejoice, sing rejoice
For I bring you good tidings

I can give you everything
I can give you everything
I can give you everything
That I want to give

All washed up and dirty
I had no place to go
I had no place to go
I can give you everything
I can give you everything
I can give you everything
That I want

Come on with your everything
