Jesus To A Child

kindness in your eyes
I guess you heard me cry
you smiled at me
like Jesus to a child
I'm blessed I know
heaven sent and heaven stole
you smiled at me like Jesus to a child
and what have I learned
from all this pain
I thought I'd never feel the same
about anyone or anything again
but now I know

when you find a love
when you know that it exits
then the lover that you miss
will come to you on those cold, cold nights
when you know it holds such bliss
then the lover that you kissed
will comfort you when there's now hope in sight

sadness in my eyes
no one guessed, well no one tried
you smiled at me
like Jesus to a child
loveless and cold
with you last breath you saved my soul
you smiled at me
like Jesus to a child
and what have I learned
from all these tears
I've waited for you all those years
then just when it began
he took your love away
but I still say
repeat chorus

so the words you could not say
I'll sing them for you
and the love we would have made
I'll make it for two
for every single memory
has become a part of me
you will always be... my love
well I've been loved
so I konw just what love is
and the lover that I kissed is always by my side
oh the love I still miss... was Jesus to a child

Father Figure

That's all I wanted
Something special, something sacred -
In your eyes
For just one moment
To be bold and naked
At your side

Sometimes I think that you'll never
Understand me
Maybe this time is forever...
Say it can be

That's all you wanted
Something special, someone sacred-
In your life
Just for one moment
To be warm and naked
At my side

Sometimes I think that you'll never
Understand me
But something tells me together
We'd be happy

(Baby) I will be your father figure
(Oh baby) Put your tiny hand in mine
(I'd love to) I will be your preacher teacher
(Be your daddy) Anything you have in mind
(It would make me) I will be your father figure
(Very happy) I have had enough of crime
(Please let me) I will be the one who loves you-
Until the end of time

That's all I wanted
But sometimes love can be mistaken
For a crime
That's all I wanted
Just to see my baby's
Blue eyed shine
This time I think that my lover
Understands me
If we have faith in each other
Then we can be Strong

Iwill be your father figure
Put your tiny hand in mine
I will be your preacher teacher
Anything you have in mind
I will be your father figure
I had enough of criime
I will be the one who loves you
Until the end of time

If you are the desert
I'll be the see
If you ever hunger-
Hunger for me
Whatever you ask for
That's what I'll be...

So when you remember the ones who have lied
Who said that they cared
But then laughed as you cried
Beautiful darling
Don't think of me

Because all I ever wanted
It's in your eyes baby, baby
And love cdan't lie, no...
(greet me with the eyes of a child)
My love is always telling me so...
(Heaven is a kiss and a smile)
Just hold on, hold on
I won't let you go, my baby

I will be your father figure
Put your tiny hand in mine
I will be your preacher teacher
Anything you have in mind
I will be your father figure
I have had enough of crime
(So I am gonna love you)
Until the end of time
I will be your father
I will be your preacher
I'll be your daddy
I will be the one who loves you until the end of time

Careless Whisper

Time can never mend the careless whispers of a good friend
To the heart and mind, ignorance is kind
there's no comfort in the truth
pain is all you'll find

Should've known better

I feel so unsure
as I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor
as the music dies, something in your eyes
calls to mind the silver screen
and all its sad good-byes

I'm never gonna dance again
guilty feet have got no rhythm
though it's easy to pretend
I know your not a fool

Should've known better than to cheat a friend
and waste the chance that I've been given
so I'm never gonna dance again
the way I danced with you

Time can never mend
the careless whispers of a good friend
to the heart and mind
ignorance is kind
there's no comfort in the truth
pain is all you'll find

I'm never gonna dance again
guilty feet have got no rhythm
though it's easy to pretend
I know your not a fool

Should've known better than to cheat a friend
and waste this chance that I've been given
so I'm never gonna dance again
the way I danced with you

Never without your love

Tonight the music seems so loud
I wish that we could lose this crowd
Maybe it's better this way
We'd hurt each other with the things we'd want to say

We could have been so good together
We could have lived this dance forever
But noone's gonna dance with me
Please stay

And I'm never gonna dance again
guilty feet have got no rhythm
though it's easy to pretend
I know your not a fool

Should've known better than to cheat a friend
and waste the chance that I've been given
so I'm never gonna dance again
the way I danced with you

(Now that you're gone) Now that you're gone
(Now that you're gone) What I did's so wrong
that you had to leave me alone

Kissing A Fool

You are far
When I could have been your star
You listened to people
Who scared you to death, and from my heart,
Strange that you were strong enough,
To even make a start,
But you'll never find
Peace of mind,
Till you listen your heart,

People,
You can never change the way they feel,
Better let them do just what they will,
For they will,
If you let them,
Steal your heart from you,
People,
Will always make a lover feel a fool,
But you knew I loved you,
We could have shown them all,
We should have seen love through,

Fooled me with the tears in your eyes,
Covered me with kisses and lies,
So goodbye,
But please don't take my heart

You are far,
I'm never gonna be your star
I'll pick up the pieces
And mend my heart,
Maybe I'll be strong enough,
I don't know where to star,
But I'll never find
Peace of mind,
While I listend to my heart,

People,
You can never change the way they feel
Better let them do just what they will,
For they will,
If you let them
Steal your heart,

And people,
Will always make a lover feel a fool,
But you knew I loved you,
We could have shown them all,

But remember this
Every other kiss
That you ever give
Long as we both live
When you need the hand of another man,
One you really can surrender with,
I will wait for you,
Like I always do,

There's something there,
That can't compare with any other,

You are far,
When I could have been your star,
You listened to people,
Who scared you to death, and from my heart,
Strange that I was wrong enough,
To think you'd love me too,
I guess you were kissing a fool,
You must have been kissing a fool.

Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me

I can't light no more of your darkness
All my pictures seem to fade to black and white
I'm growing tired and time stands still before me
Frozen here on the ladder of my life

Too late to save myself from falling
I took a chance and changed your way of life
But you misread my meaning when I met you
Closed the door and left me blinded by the light

Don't let the sun go down on me
Although I search myself, it's always someone else I see
I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free
But losing everything is like the sun going down on me

I can't find oh, the right romantic line
But see me once and see the way I feel
Don't discard me just because you think I mean you harm
But these cuts I have, oh they need love to help them heal

- Chommar Ipiet Ira Hani Apop -

I Can't Make You Love Me

Turn down the light
Turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head
Lay down with me
Tell me no lies
Just hold me close
Don't patronise
Don't patronise

'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel then I won't see
Here in the dar in these final hours
And I feel the power
But you won't, no you won't

'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
I'll close my eyes, then I won't see
The love you don't feel when you're holding me
Mornin' will come and I'll do what's right
Just give me till the to give up this fight
And I will give up this fight

'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel then I won't see
Here in the dar in these final hours
And I feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't

Heal The Pain

Let me tell you a secret
Put it in your heart and keep it
Something that I want you to know
Do something for me
Listen to my simple story
And maybe we'll have something to show

You tell me you're cold on the inside
How can the outside world
Be a place that your heart can embrace
Be good to yourself
Because nobody else
Has the power to make you happy

How can I help you
Please let me try to
I can heal the pain
That you're feeling inside
Whenever you want me
You know that I will be
Waiting for the day
That you say you'll be mine

He must have really hurt you
To make you say things that you do
He must have really hurt you
To make those pretty eyes look so blue

He must have known
That he could
That you'd never leave him
Now you can't see my love is good
And that I'm not him

How can I help you
Please let me try to
I can heal the pain
Won't you let me inside
Whenever you want me
You know that I will be

Waiting for the day
That you say you'll be mine

Who needs a lover
That can't be a friend
Something tells me I'm the one you've been looking for
If you ever should see him again
Won't you tell him you've found someone
Who give you more

Someone who will protect you
Love and respect you
All those things
That he never could bring to you
Like I do
Or rather I would
Won't you show me your heart
Like you should

Won't you let me in
Let this love begin
Won't you show me your heart now
I'll be good to you
I can make this thing true
And get your heart somehow

A Moment With You

(you can't keep holding it in when it's something good)

Hey this won't take much time
We won't touch, weäll just wait for signs
And nothing was further from my mind
Than this moment with you

But if you'd only told me baby
I would have made some other plans
If I'd only seen it sooner
But what away with you hands you had
I wanted that moment with you

I konw that its wrong
But "if you need me, I'm here", turns me on
I can't help thinking its a miracle you're here
I can't help thinking its a miracle

Say, you don't waste much time
We don't touch, do we baby?
But still my hands are tied
For that moment with you

But if you'd only told me baby
I would have made some other plans
If I'd only seen it sooner
But what away with you hands you had
I wanted that moment with you

You know that I'm strong
And I've no reason to fear, am I wrong?
I can't help thinking it's a miracle you're here
I can't help thinking it's a miracle
I can't help thinking it's american
I can't help thinking it's a miracle
I can't help thinking it's a miracle you're here

You can't keep holding it in when it's something good
Get up, get up
You can't keep holding it in when it's something good
Get up, get up

And who can you trust? dealing out justice
With a minimum of fuss
Who baby
Dealing out justice...

Desafinando

Se voce disser que eu desafi no amor
Saiba que isto em mim provocaimensa dôr
Sò privilegia dos têm ou vidoigual ao seu
Eu possuo a penas o que deus me deu

Se você insiste em classificar
O meu comportamento de anti musical
Eu mesmo mentindo possoargu mentar
Que is to è bossa nova que is to è mui to natural

O que voce nao sabe nem siquer presente
È que os desafindos tambem tèm coracao
Fotografei vocè na minha Rolleiflex
Revelouse a sua enor mein gratidâo

Sô nao podera falar assim do meu amor
È le è maior que vocè pode encontrar 'viu'
Vocè com a sua musica es que ceu o principal

È que no peito dos desafindos
No fundo do peito bate cala do
È que no peito dos desafina
Dos tambem bate um coracao

Cowboys and Angels

When your heart's in someone else's hands
Monkey see and monkey do
Their wish is your command
You're not to blame
Everyone's the same

All you do is love and love is all you do
I should know by now the way I fought for you
You're not to blame
Everyone's the same

I know you think that you're safe
Mister
Harmless deception
That keeps love at bay
It's the ones who resist that we most want to kiss
Wouldn't you say?
Cowboys and angels
They all have the time for you
Why should I imagine that I'd be a find for you
Why should I imagine
That I'd have something to say

But that scar on your face
That beautiful face of yours
In your heart there's a trace
Of someone before

When your hearts in someone else's plans
Thing you say and things you do
They don't understand
It's such a shame
Always ends the same

You can call it love but I don't think it's true
You should know by now
I'm not the boy for you
Always ends the same

I know you think that you're safe

Sister
Harmless affection
That keeps thinks this way
It's the ones who persist for the sake of a kiss
Who will pay
Cowboys and angels
They all take a shine to you
Why should I imagine that I was designed for you
Why should I believe
That you would say

But that scar on your face
That beautiful face of yours
Don't you think that I know
They've hurt before

Take this man to your bed
Maybe his hands will help you forget
Please be stronger than your past
The future may still give you a chance

Praying For Time

These are the days of the open hand
They will not be the last
Look around now
These are the days of the beggars and the choosers

This is the year of the hungry man
Whose place in the past
Hand in hand with ignorance
And legimate excuses

The rich declare themselves poor
And most of us are not sure
If we have too much
But we'll take our chances
Because God's stopped keeping score
I guess somewhere along the way
He must have let us all out to play
Turned his back and all Gods children
Crept out the back door

And its hard to love, there's so much hate
Hanging on to hope
Where there is no hope to speak of
And the wounded skies above say it's
Much too late

Well maybe we should all be praying for time
Oh you hold on to what you can
These are the days of the empty hand
And charity is a coat you wear twice a year

This is the year of the guilty man
Your television takes a stand
And you find that what was over there is over here

So you scream from behind your door
Say what's mine is mine and not yours
I may have too much but I'll take my chances
Because God's stopped keeping score
And you cling to the things they sold you
Did you cover you eyes when they told you

That he can't come back
Because he has no children to come back for

Its hard to lvoe there's so much to hate
Hanging on to hope when there is no
Hope to speak of
And the wounded skies above say its much too late
So maybe we should all be praying for time

One More Try

I've had enough of danger
And people on the streets
I'm looking out for angels
Just trying to find some peace
Now I think it's time
That you let me know
So if you love me
Say you love me
But if you don't
Just let me go...

'Cos teacher
There are things that I don't want to learn
And the last one I had
Made me cry
So I don't want to learn to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
Because it ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Whose teacher has told him goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Whe you were just a stranger
And I was at your feet
I didn't feel the danger
Now I feel the heat
That look in your eyes
Telling me no
So you think that you love me
Know that you need me
I wrote the song, I know it's wrong
Just let me go...

And teacher
There are things
That I don't want to learn
Oh that last one I had
Made me cry
So I don't want to learn to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
Because it ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Whose teacher has told him goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

So when you say that you need me
That you'll never leave me
I konw you're wrong, you're not that strong
Let me go

I'd say love was a magical thing
I'd say love would keep us from pain
Had I been there, had I been there

I would promise you all of my life
But to lose you would cut like a knife
So I don't dare, no I don't dare

'Cause I've never come close in all of these years
You are the only one to stop my tears
And I'm so scared, I'm so scared

Take me back in time maybe I can forget
Turn a different corner and we never would have met
Would you care

I don't understand it for you it's a breeze
Little by little you've brought me to my knees
Don't you care

No I've never come close in all of these years
You are the only one to stop my tears
I'm so scared of this love

And if all that there is is this fear of being used
I should go back to being lonely and confused
If I could, I would, I swear.
