DROWNING MAN

SURRENDER
"40"
SUNDAY BLOODY SUNDAY
I can't believe the news today
I can't close my eyes and make it go away
How long,
How long must we sing this song?
How long? Tonight we can be as one
Broken bottles under children's feet
Bodies strewn across a dead end street
But I won't heed the battle call
It puts my back up, puts my back up against the wall
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
And the battle's just begun
There's many lost, but tell me who has won?
The trenches dug within our hearts
And mother's children brothers, sisters torn apart
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
How long,
How long must we sing this song?
How long? Tonight we can be as one
Tonight, tonight
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Wipe the tears from your eyes
Wipe your tears away
Wipe your bloodshot eyes
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
And it's true we are inmune
When fact is fiction and TV is reality
And today the millions cry
We eat and drink while tomorrow they die
The real battle just begun
To claim the victory Jesus won
On a Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
SECONDS
It takes a second to say goodbye
Say goodbye
It takes a second to say goodbye
Say goodbye, say bye bye where are you going to now?
Fall, rise and... Fall, rise and...
Lightning flashes across the sky
From east to west you do or die
Like a thief in the night
You see the world by candlelight
Fall, rise and... Fall, rise and...
In an apartment
On Times Square
You can assemble them anywhere
Held to ramson, hell to pay
A revolution every day
U.S.S.R., D.D.R., London, New York, Peking
It's the puppets, it's the puppets
Who pull the strings
Say goodbye, say goodbye
Say goodbye, say goodbye
It takes a second to say goodbye
Push the button and pull the plug, say goodbye
Fall, rise and... Fall, rise and...
They're doing the atomic bomb
Do they know where the dance comes from?
Yes they're doing the atomic bomb
They want you to sing along
Say goodbye, say goodbye
NEW YEAR'S DAY
All is quiet on New Year's Day
A world in white gets underway
And I want to be with you
Be with you night and day
Nothing changes on New Year's Day
I will be with you again
I will be with you again
Under a blood-red sky
A crowd has gathered in black and white
Arms entwined, the chosen few
Newspapers say, it says it's true it's true
And we can break through
Though torn in two we can be one
I will begin again, I will begin again
Oh and maybe the time is right
Oh maybe tonight
I will be with you again
I will be with you again
And so we are told this is the golden age
And gold is the reason for the wars we wage
Though I want to be with you
To be with you night and day
Nothing changes on New Year's Day
LIKE A SONG
.
Like a song I have to sing
I sing it for you
Like the words I have to bring
I bring them to you
And in leather
Lace or chains
We stake our claim
Revolution once again
But I won't
I won't wear it on my sleeve
I can see through this expression,
And you know I don't believe
I'm too old to be told
Exactly who are you?
Tonight, tomorrow's too late
And we love to wear a badge, a uniform
And we love to fly a flag
But I won't let others live in hell
As we divide against each other
And we fight amongst ourselves
Too set in our ways to try to rearrange
Too right to be wrong,
in this rebel song
Let the bells ring out, is there nothing left?
Is honesty what you want?
A generation without name, ripped and torn
Nothing to lose, nothing to gain
Nothing at all
And if you can't help yourself
Well take a look around you
When others need your time
You say it's time to go it's your time
Angry words won't stop the fight
Two wrongs won't make it right
A new heart is what I need
Oh God, make it bleed
Is there nothing left?
DROWNING MAN
Take my hand
You know I'll be there
If you can I'll cross
The sky for your love
For I have promised for
To be with you tonight
And for the time that will come
Take my hand
You know I'll be there
If you can I'll cross
The sky for your love
And I understand
These winds and tides
This change of times
Won't drag you away
Hold on, hold on tightly
Hold on and don't let go
Of my love
The storms will pass
It won't be long now
The storms will pass
But my love last forever
And take my hand
You know I'll be there
If you can I'll cross the sky
For your love
Give you what I hold dear
Hold on, hold on tightly
Hold on, hold on tightly
Rise up, rise up, with wings
Like eagles you'll run, you'll run
You'll run and not grow weary
Take my hand, take my hand
Hold on, hold on tightly
Hold on, hold on tightly
This love lasts forever
This love lasts forever
Take my hand
Take my hand
THE REFUGEE
War
She is a refugee, I see her face
I see her starin' back at me
War
She is a refugee, her momma say
One day she's gonna live in America
In the morning she is waiting
Waiting for her ship to sail
Sail away
Here
She's got a heart
War
Poppa go to war, he go to fight
But he don't know what for
War
Poppa go to war, her mama say
One day he's gonna come back from far away
Heartbeat
I can hear a heartbeat
In the evening, she is waiting
Waiting for her man to come
And take her by the hand
And take her to this promised land
War
She is a pretty face
Born at the wrong time, and in the wrong place
War
She is a pretty face
Her mama say
One day she's gonna live in America
(Yeah, America)
War
She is a pretty face
Her mama say
One day she's gonna live in America
War
She is a refugee
She'll come and dance
She'll keep you company
War
She is a refugee
Her mama say
One day she's gonna live in America
TWO HEARTS BEAT AS ONE
I don't know
I don't know which side I'm on
I don't know my right from left
Or my right from wrong
They say I'm a fool
They say I'm nothing
But if I'm a fool for you
Oh, that is something
Two hearts beat as one
Two hearts beat as one
Two hearts
I can't stop to dance
This is my last chance
I said I can't stop to dance
Baby, this is my last chance
Two hearts beat as one
Two hearts beat as one
Two hearts
Beat on black, beat on white
Beat on everything, don't get it right
Beat on you, beat on me
Beat on love
I don't know how to say
What's got to be said
I don't know if it's black or white
There's others see it red
I don't get the answers right
I leave that to you
Is this love out of fashion
Or is it the time of year
Are these words distraction
To the words you want to hear
I try to spit it out
I try to explain
The way I feel
Oh yeah, two hearts
RED LIGHT
I talk to you, ooh walkaway
You're still on the downbeat
you say you don't mind
But you get hurt scared
If you're running from yourself
I give you my love
I give you my love
Give you my love
And still you walkaway, well
It's your own late show
As you jump to the street below
But where can you go to leave yourself behind
Alone in the spotlight
Of this your own tragedy
Give my love
Love love love love
Love love love love
Love...
In the heart of the city, see me
Calling, calling, calling
See me calling
I spend my life just calling you
And I'll bring you
And I'll bring you
Night and day
I'll give you my love
Give you my love, give you my love
Give you my love, give you my love
SURRENDER
The city's alight
With lovers and lies
Bright blue eyes
The city is bright
Brighter than day tonight
Surrender, Surrender
Surrender, Surrender
Sadie said she couldn't
Work out what it was all about
And so she let go
Now Sadie's on the street
And the people she meets you know
She tried to be a good girl
And a good wife
Raise a good family
Lead a good life
It's not good enough
She got herself up on the 48th floor
Go to find out, find out
What she's living for
Surrender, Surrender
Surrender, Surrender
The city's a fire
A passionate flame
That knows me by name
The city's desire
To take me for more and more
It's in the street getting under my feet
It's in the air it's everywhere I look for you
It's in the things I do and say
If I want to live, I've got to die to myself someday
Papa sing my sing my song
Papa sing my sing my song
Papa sing my sing my song
"40"
I waited patiently for the Lord
He inclined and heard my cry
He brought me up out of the pit
Out of the miry clay
I will sing
Sing a new song
I will sing
Sing a new song
How long
To sing this song?
How long
To sing this song?
How long, how long
How long, how long
To sing this song?
Well he set my feet upon a rock
And made my footsteps firm
Many will see
Many will see and hear
I will sing
Sing a new song
I will sing
Sing a new song
How long
To sing this song?
How long
To sing this song?
