BAD TO THE BONE
by Running Wild.

Fifty years ago with the world at war
Hands bloodied - devastated
Better believe they're back for more
Pounding the world with a fist of steel
Jack booted, heavy handed
Careless of the pain we feel

Bastards - throwing life away
Killers - alive today

Oh oh oh oh
Don't tell no lies
I see through your eyes
You're bad to the bone
Oh oh oh oh
Don't tell no lies
You can't hear the cries
'Cos you're bad to the bone

Times have changed but he don't know
Zoot suit, black tie
Careless that the lies are low
One for all and all for one
Talking smooth - hidden truth
Time bomb ticking just begun

Standing alone for the world to see
Non-starter - push
 
PILE OF SKULLS
by Running Wild

Hey, Mr. Priest, Mr. Military Man
Kings and Queens
More evil that it seems
You lie, you cheat, you betray, you kill all the way
You wade through blood in your boots of steel
You hide the truth from its reveal
The world's bleeding wounds will never heal

So look in the mirror and see who you are
You made our lives an abbatoir
A man-eating machine that's what you are

Pile of skulls, conspiracy
Beware of the revealing key
No dance of joy, no harmless spree
No chance for you to hide or flee

Liar's tongue, tricks of deepest dye
Snake-skinned pack
You're evil and you're sly
Injust, you hunt, you hate, you take all the way
You're cutting throats with poisoned blades
Your recklessness overflows the graves
You try to make us all your slaves

So look in the mirror and see who you are
You made our lives an abbatoir
A man-eating machine that's what you are

Pile of skulls, conspiracy
Beware of the revealing key
No dance of joy, no harmless spree
No chance for you to hide or flee

Tears and pain, never ending shame
Bloodsucking lice
Play their evil game
Your doom is sealed, the truth revealed all the way
Headless you still run around
You can't believe you're losing ground
On your knees to take the count

So look in the mirror and see who you are
You made our lives an abbatoir
A man-eating machine that's what you are

Pile of skulls, conspiracy
Beware of the revealing key
No dance of joy, no harmless spree
No chance for you to hide or flee
 
DIAMONDS OF THE BLACK CHEST
by Running Wild

Since then he heard about the chest
He's so wild he can't get no rest
A million diamonds blinding his eyes
Brighter than fire but colder than ice
Sweat on his brow, greed burns his mind
Hands like claws his teeth always grind
Soaked by sweat he wakes up and screams
"Oh, no, it was only a dream"

Diamonds, diamonds
Diamonds of the black chest

Years and years he sought that chest
He runs most every risk the man's obsessed
For too many years he's roamed all the lands
To feel the diamonds in his hands
He find the hallow spot, breaking its lock
He opens the gate which is carved of rock
Finding the chest he exults and screams
"Oh, yeah, it's no dream"

Diamonds, diamonds
Diamonds of the black chest

He holds out his hands and he touches the chest
He breaks its seals, he disturbs its rest
Curious and slow he opens the lid
He stares over the edge, what he sees he can't grip
No diamonds but he sees own face
A possessed wreck with an empty gaze
Thrilled by madness he's dying in pain
"No dream, he's insane"

Diamonds, diamonds
Diamonds of the black chest
 
METALHEAD
by Running Wild

There's power in your blood, there's thunder in your veins
Staunchness is the way to keep you away from pain
If your everlasting soul is shedding of its fear
You'll be a rebel at heart, a stone in their gear

Fear and pain, Hades' name
Sin and pride their evil guide

Metalhead, trust in yourself and fight
Metalhead, free your mind
Metalhead, deny the darkened side
Metalhead, your soul is prime

They try to break your back, they wanna take away your pride
Fatheads are what they need, they wanna take you for a ride
Backbiters're telling lies to bring you into line
They try to ban the truth cause power and money's prime

Fear and pain, Hades' name
Sin and pride their evil guide

Metalhead, trust in yourself and fight
Metalhead, free your mind
Metalhead, deny the darkened side
Metalhead, your soul is prime

They fear the ancient symbols, true evil always will
Now afcending's rising, the fate will be fullfilled
Banning of saviour from evil, the holy pentagram
They know exactly who they are, blackest minds and men

Fear and pain, Hades' name
Sin and pride their evil guide

Metalhead, trust in yourself and fight
Metalhead, free your mind
Metalhead, deny the darkened side
Metalhead, your soul is prime

Metalhead, trust in yourself and fight
Metalhead, free your mind
Metalhead, deny the darkened side
Metalhead, your soul is prime
 
FIGHT THE FIRE OF HATE
by Running Wild

Souldead fools, their hands up high
Spreading terror, the innocent die
Throwing bombs, the intention to kill
Soulless slaves, no reasons, no will

The evil madman has taken his toll
Possessing their minds, owning their souls
Souls of hate, hell awaits
Trembled with fear while they're walking its gates

Braindead phrase, screamed out loud
Imbecility rules, no slip up, no doubt
Bloodstained hands, the money rules
Taking their share by seducing fools

The evil madman has taken his toll
Possessing their minds, owning their souls
Souls of hate, hell awaits
Trembled with fear while they're walking its gates

Fight, the fire of hate
Fight the evil before it's too late
Fight, that life-killing flame
Cause when the blood flows no words can ease the pain

Bewilderment when the children die
As time goes by, no thought, no cry
Right-wing parties, lighting the flame
The fire of evil is ruling their game

The evil madman has taken his toll
Possessing their minds, owning their souls
Souls of hate, hell awaits
Trembled with fear while they're walking its gates

Fight, the fire of hate
Fight the evil before it's too late
Fight, that life-killing flame
Cause when the blood flows no words can ease the pain

Souldead fools, their hands up high
Spreading terror, the innocent die
Throwing bombs, the intention to kill
Soulless slaves, no reasons, no will

The evil madman has taken his toll
Possessing their minds, owning their souls
Souls of hate, hell awaits
Trembled with fear while they're walking its gates

Fight, the fire of hate
Fight the evil before it's too late
Fight, that life-killing flame
Cause when the blood flows no words can ease the pain
 
After that rather heavy section, a mellow interlude

Tubas in the Moonlight
by the Bonzo Dog Band (1968)


Through the twilight, I can hear the humming of a melancholy coon. (mm-mm)
For the memories that still linger, I thank you mister Moon.
And, although I've never smiled,
Winter, summer, autumn too,
Now here's one tune to remind me why I feel so blue-oo...
Tubas in the moonlight, playing for me all night,
Tell me what I want to hear.
Am I only dreaming?
Am I only scheming?
Stars above me, shining brightly.
Why can't she be sitting here beside me?
Tubas in the moonlight will bring my loved one home.

(Instrumental Verses)

Tubas in the moonlight will bring my loved one home.

Moonshadow
By Cat Stevens

Oh, I'm being followed by a moonshadow, moonshadow, moonshadow...
Leapin and a hoppin' on a moonshadow, moonshadow, moonshadow...

And if I ever lose my hands, lose my plough, lose my land, Oh if
I ever lose my hands, Oh if I ever lose my hands, lose my plough,
lose my land I won't have to work no more.

Oh, I'm being followed by a moonshadow, moonshadow, moonshadow...
Leapin and a hoppin' on a moonshadow, moonshadow, moonshadow...

And if I ever lose my eyes, if all my colours all run dry, Yes if,
ever lose my eyes, Oh if I ever lose my eyes, if all my colours
all run dry, I won't have to cry no more.

Oh, I'm being followed by a moonshadow, moonshadow, moonshadow...
Leapin and a hoppin' on a moonshadow, moonshadow, moonshadow...

And if I ever lose my legs, I won't moan and I won't beg, Yes if
I ever lose my legs, Oh if I ever lose my legs I won't moan and I
won't beg, I won't have to walk no more.

Oh, I'm being followed by a moonshadow, moonshadow, moonshadow...
Leapin and a hoppin' on a moonshadow, moonshadow, moonshadow...

And if I ever lose my mouth, all my teeth, north and south, Yes
if I ever lose my mouth, Oh if I ever lose my mouth, all my teeth
north and south, I won't have to talk...
Did it take long to find me? I ask the faithful light.
Did it take long to find me? And are you gonna stay the night?

Oh, I'm being followed by a moonshadow, moonshadow, moonshadow...
Leapin and a hoppin' on a moonshadow, moonshadow, moonshadow...
Moonshadow, moonshadow, moonshadow, moonshadow.

Edge of Reality- Elvish Presley

I walk along a thin line darling
Dark shadows follow me
Here's where life's dream lies disillusioned
The edge of reality

Oh I can hear strange voices echo
Laughing with mockery
The border line of doom I'm facing
The edge of reality

On the edge of reality she sits there tormenting me
The girl with the nameless face
On the edge of reality where she overpowers me
With fears that I can't explain
She drove me to the point of madness
The brink of misery
If she's not real then I'm condemned to
The edge of reality

On the edge of reality she sits there tormenting me
The girl with the nameless face
On the edge of reality where she overpowers me
With fears that I can't explain
She drove me to the point of madness
The brink of misery
If she's not real then I'm condemned to
The edge of reality

Reality, reality, reality, reality,
Reality, reality, reality, reality
 
I'm not sure if I have all the words right on this song. It's a little difficult to listen and type at the same time. But it's approximate.

Not Forgotten You
Kelly Willis

Came home a little early last night,
Shed not tear when I turned out the light.
No I don’t hurt like I used to.

Didn’t wait for a knock on my door.
Draw in my room ain’t empty anymore,
So many got it tougher than I do.

But I have not forgotten,
I have not forgotten,
I have not forgotten you.

Time flies and you just know,
Time to think about lettin’ go.
Times I forget to be blue.

Big feet shuffling sand,
Leave not a trace to slip right through your hands.
Done every little thing I know to do.

But I have not forgotten,
I have not forgotten,
I have not forgotten you.

I said hey I'm western bound with his black tails flying.
Leave me on the rails to remember
When your love was mine.

Times flies and you just know,
Time to think about letting go.
Times I even forget to be blue.

But I have not forgotten,
I have not forgotten,
I have not forgotten you.

No, I have not forgotten,
I have not forgotten,
I have not forgotten you.

I have not forgotten,
I have not forgotten,
I have not forgotten you.
 
I Believe in Father Christmas
Emerson, Lake, and Palmer

They said there'll be snow at Christmas
They said there'll be peace on Earth
But instead it just kept on raining
A veil of tears for the Virgin's birth
I remember one Christmas morning
A winters light and a distant choir
And the peal of a bell and that Christmas Tree smell
And their eyes full of tinsel and fire

They sold me a dream of Christmas
They sold me a Silent Night
And they told me a fairy story
'Till I believed in the Israelite
And I believed in Father Christmas
And I looked at the sky with excited eyes
'Till I woke with a yawn in the first light of dawn
And I saw him and through his disguise

I wish you a hopeful Christmas
I wish you a brave New Year
All anguish pain and sadness
Leave your heart and let your road be clear
They said there'll be snow at Christmas
They said there'll be peace on Earth
Hallelujah Noel be it Heaven or Hell
The Christmas you get you deserve

Pete Shelley/Buzzcocks

I bet that you love me like I love you
But I should know that gambling just don't pay
So I look up to the sky
And I wonder what it'll be like in days gone by
As I sit and bathe in the wave of nostalgia for an age yet to come

I always used to dream of the past
But like they say yesterday never comes
Sometimes there's a song in my brain
And I feel that my heart knows the refrain
I guess it's just the music that brings on nostalgia for an age yet to come

Ah nostalgia for an age yet to come
Nostalgia for an age yet to come

About the future I only can reminisce
For what I've had is what I'll never get
And although this may sound strange
My future and my past are presently disarranged
And I'm surfing on a wave of nostalgia for an age yet to come

I look I only see what I don't know
All that was strong invincible is slain
Takes more than sunshine to make everything fine
And I feel like I'm trapped in the middle of time
With this constant feeling of nostalgia for an age yet to come

Ah nostalgia for an age yet to come

About the future I only can reminisce
For what I've had is what I'll never get
And although this may sound strange
My future and my past are presently disarranged
And I'm surfing on a wave of nostalgia for an age yet to come

I look I only see what I don't know
All that was strong invincible is slain
Takes more than sunshine to make everything fine
And I feel like I'm caught in the middle of time
And this constant feeling of nostalgia for an age yet to come

Ah nostalgia for an age yet to come

Nostalgia for an age yet to come
Nostalgia for an age yet to come
 
Let Me Touch You For a While
Alison Krauss and Union Station
CD- New Favorite


It's been a long time coming
As you shed a lonesome tear
Now you're in a wonderama
I wonder what you're doing here.

The flame no longer flickers
You're feeling just like a fool
You keep staring into your liquor
Wondering what to do.

I don't hardly know you
But I'd be willing to show you
I know a way to make you smile
Let me touch you for a while.

I'm gonna ruin my black masscara
You're drinking whiskey when it should be wine
You keep looking into that mirror
But to me you're looking really fine.

I don't hardly know you
But I'd be a willing to show you
I know a way to make you laugh at that cowgirl as she's walking out your door
I know a to make you smile.

Just let me whisper things you never heard before
Just let me touch you baby, just let be touch you for a while.

I don't hardly know you
But I'd be willing to show you
I know a way to make you smile
It's been a long time, let me touch you for a while.
 
Spreading the Christmas Cheer...

"Father Christmas"
By The Kinks

When I was small I believed in Santa Claus
Though I knew it was my dad
And I would hang up my stocking at Christmas
Open my presents and I'd be glad

But the last time I played Father Christmas
I stood outside a department store
A gang of kids came over and mugged me
And knocked my reindeer to the floor

They said:
Father Christmas, give us some money
Don't mess around with those silly toys.
We'll beat you up if you don't hand it over
We want your bread so don't make us annoyed
Give all the toys to the little rich boys

Don't give my brother a Steve Austin outfit
Don't give my sister a cuddly toy
We don't want a jigsaw or monopoly money
We only want the real McCoy

Father Christmas, give us some money
We'll beat you up if you make us annoyed
Father Christmas, give us some money
Don't mess around with those silly toys

But give my daddy a job 'cause he needs one
He's got lots of mouths to feed
But if you've got one, I'll have a machine gun
So I can scare all the kids down the street

Father Christmas, give us some money
We got no time for your silly toys
We'll beat you up if you don't hand it over
Give all the toys to the little rich boys

Have yourself a merry merry Christmas
Have yourself a good time
But remember the kids who got nothin'
While you're drinkin' down your wine

Father Christmas, give us some money
We got no time for your silly toys
We'll beat you up if you don't hand it over
We want your bread, so don't make us annoyed
Give all the toys to the little rich boys
 
Out The Blue (John Lennon)


Out the blue you came to me
And blew away life's misery
Out the blue life's energy
Out the blue you came to me

Everyday I thank the Lord and Lady
For the way that you came to me
Anyway it had to be two minds one destiny

Out the blue you came to me
And blew away life's misery
Out the blue life's energy
Out the blue you came to me

All my life's been a long slow knife
I was born just to get to you
Anyway I survived long enough to make you my wife

Out the blue you came to me
And blew away life's misery
Out the blue life's energy
Out the blue you came to me

Like a U.F.O. you came to me
And blew away life's misery
Out the blue life's energy
Out the blue you came to me

Working Class Hero (John Lennon)

As soon as you're born they make you feel small
By giving you no time instead of it all
Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be

They hurt you at home and they hit you at school
They hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool
Till you're so ****ing crazy you can't follow their rules
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be

When they've tortured and scared you for twenty odd years
Then they expect you to pick a career
When you can't really function you're so full of fear
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be

Keep you doped with religion and sex and TV
And you think you're so clever and classless and free
But you're still ****ing peasants as far as I can see
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be

There's room at the top they are telling you still
But first you must learn how to smile as you kill
If you want to be like the folks on the hill
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be

If you want to be a hero well just follow me
If you want to be a hero well just follow me


Remember (John Lennon)

Remember when you were young?
How the hero was never hung
Always got away
Remember how the man
Used to leave you empty handed?
Always, always let you down
If you ever change your mind
About leaving it all behind
Remember, remember, today

And don't feel sorry
The way it's gone
And don't you worry
'Bout what you've done

Just remember when you were small
How people seemed so tall
Always had their way
Do you remember your Ma and Pa
Just wishing for movie stardom
Always, always playing a part
If you ever feel so sad
And the whole world is driving you mad
Remember, remember, today

And don't feel sorry
'Bout the way it's gone
And don't you worry
'Bout what you've done

No, no, remember, remember
The fifth of November

Hurdy Gurdy Man (Donovan)

Thrown like a star in my vast sleep
I'm opening my eyes to take a peep
To find that I was by the sea
Gazing with tranquility

'Twas then when the hurdy gurdy man
Came singing songs of love
Then when the hurdy gurdy man
Came singing songs of love

Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy gurdy he sang
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy gurdy he sang
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy gurdy he sang

Histories of ages past
Unenlightened shadows cast
Down through all eternity
The crying of humanity

'Tis then when the hurdy gurdy man
Comes singing songs of love
Then when the hurdy gurdy man
Comes singing songs of love

Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy gurdy he sang
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy hurdy gurd
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy gurdy he sang

Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy gurdy he sang
Here comes the roly-poly man
He's singing songs of love
Roly poly, roly poly, roly poly poly he sang
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy gurdy he sang
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy gurdy he sang
Roly poly, roly poly, roly poly poly he sang
 
A Seattle Song

The Who, from Quadrophenia
"Love Reign O'er Me"

Only love
Can make it rain
The way the beach is kissed by the sea.
Only love
Can make it rain
Like the sweat of lovers'
Laying in the fields.

Love, Reign o'er me.
Love, Reign o'er me, rain on me.

Only love
Can bring the rain
That makes you yearn to the sky.
Only love
Can bring the rain
That falls like tears from on high.

Love Reign O'er me.

On the dry and dusty road
The nights we spend apart alone
I need to get back home to cool cool rain.
The nights are hot and black as ink
I can't sleep and I lay and I think
Oh God, I need a drink of cool cool rain.
 
Crazy Faith
Alison Krauss and Union Station


I lit my love and watched it burn
Asking nothing in return
Except the lessons I have learned
While holding crazy faith.

I've been touched by that bright fire
Down to the root of my desire
While the smoke it rises higher
Holding crazy faith.

You're not asking if I love this man
I know you don't, you don't belive you can
Yet I've seen love open like a dancer's fan
It's crazy I know, but my faith say so, it tells me.

Am I a fool for hanging on?
Would I be a fool to be long gone?
When is daylight going to go?
Or my crazy faith.

The quesitons will not let me sleep
Answers buried way too deep
At the bottom of a lover's leap
Made by crazy faith.

You're not asking if I love this man
I know you don't, you don't belive you can
Yet I've seen love open like a dancer's fan
It's crazy I know, but my faith say so, it tells me.

Love your lose and lose your love
Let the hawk fly from the glove
Do not search the skies above
Search your crazy faith.

Love is lightning, love is ice
It only strikes the lucky twice
Once and you will know the price
And once for crazy faith.

You're not asking if I love this man
I know you don't, you don't belive you can
Yet I've seen love open like a dancer's fan
It's crazy I know, but my faith say so.
 
After the thrill is gone by the eagles

Same dances in the same old shoes
Some habits that you just can't lose
There's no telling what a man might lose,
After the thrill is gone
The flame rises but it soon descends
Empty pages and a frozen pen
You're not quite lovers and you're not quite friends
After the thrill is gone, oh,
After the thrill is gone

What can you do when your dreams come true
And it's not quite like you planned?
What have you done to be losing the one
You held it so tight in your hand well

Time passes and you must move on,
Half the distance takes you twice as long
So you keep on singing for the sake of the song
After the thrill is gone
After the thrill is gone

You're afraid you might fall out of fashion
And you're feeling cold and small
Any kind of love without passion
That ain't no kind of lovin' at all, well

Same dances in the same old shoes
You get too careful with the steps you choose
you don't care about winning but you don't want to lose
After the thrill is gone
After the thrill is gone
After the thrill is gone, oh
After the thrill is gone
 
Jesus Freak by dc talk

[What will people think
When they hear that I'm a Jesus Freak?
What will people do
When they find that's it's true?]

Separated, I cut myself clean
From a past that comes back in my darkest of dreams
Been apprehended by a spiritual force
And a grace that replaced all the me I've divorced

I saw a man with tat on his big fat belly
It wiggled around like marmalade jelly
It took me a while to catch what it said
Cause I had to match the rhythm
Of his belly with my head
'Jesus Saves' is what it raved in a typical tattoo green
He stood on a box in the middle of the city
And claimed he had a dream

(chorus)
What will people think
When they hear that I'm a Jesus freak
What will people do when they find that it's true
I don't really care if they label me a Jesus freak
There ain't no disguising the truth

Kamikaze, my death is gain
I've been marked by my Maker
A peculiar display
The high and lofty, they see me as weak
Cause I won't live and die for the power they seek

There was a man from the desert with naps in his head
The sand that he walked was also his bed
The words that he spoke made the people assume
There wasn't too much left in the upper room
With skins on his back and hair on his face
They thought he was strange by the locusts he ate
The Pharisees tripped when they heard him speak
Until the king took the head of this Jesus freak

(repeat chorus 2x)

People say I'm strange, does it make me a stranger
That my best friend was born in a manger
People say I'm strange, does it make me a stranger
That my best friend was born in a manger

(repeat chorus 2x)

What will people think
[What will people think]
What will people do
[What will people do]
I don't really care
[What else can I say]
There ain't no disguising the truth
[Jesus is the way]

Wild Wind
Robert Earl Keen

Down on Main street after sundown,
Good Time Charlie and Wonderin' Bill
Thought they might hold up Happy's Drive-In.
One got away, one never will.

That's the way it goes around here,
(Around here)
I think everybody knows.
(I guess everybody knows)
And that's the song they've been singin' for years.
(For years)
That's the way the wild wind blows.
(Wild wind blows)

Too Tall Annie kept her money
In a Bible she never read.
They found Lefty, her first ex-husband
In his new pick-up truck at the bottom of the river bed.

And that's the way it goes around here,
(Around here)
I think everybody knows.
(I guess everbody knows)
And that's the song they've been singin' for years.
(For years)
That's the way the wild wind blows.
(Wild wind blows) And it blows.

Luther Martin he ain't got nobody,
But he sells papers and buys his wine.
His great-granddaddy owned half of main street,
Luther's daddy didn't have a dime.

That's the way it goes around here,
(Around here)
I think everybody knows.
(I guess everybody knows)
And that's the song they've been singin' for years.
(For years)
That's the way the wild wind blows.
(Wild wind blows)

Ain't no secret old Doc Skimmer
Wrote perscriptions, made lots of friends.
He could dance like nobody's business,
Folks around here are sure missing him.

That's the way it goes around here,
(Around here)
I think everybody knows.
(I guess everybody knows)
That's the song they've been singin' for years.
(For years)
That's the way the wild wind blows.
(Wild wind blows) And it blows.
 
And my favourite song is Dominator by Human Resource which is a gabber song with lots of beats and very little lyrics, these are the lyrics:

I'm bigger
I'm bolder
I'm rougher
I'm tougher
In other words sucker
There is no other
I'm the one and only
Dominator

Kind of cool isn't it?
(by the way, I didn't make this up, it really is a song....)

Faye Wong - Eyes On Me (You can hear this in Final Fantasy VIII)

Whenever I sang my songs
On the stage, on my own
Whenever I said my words
Wishing they would be heard
I saw you smiling at me
Was it real or just my fantasy
You'd always be there in the corner
Of this tiny little bar

My last night here for you
Same old songs, just once more
My last night here with you?
Maybe yes, maybe no
I kind of liked it your way
How you shyly placed your eyes on me

Oh, did you ever know?
That I had mine on you

Darling, so there you are
With that look on your face
As if you're never hurt
As if you're never down
Shall I be the one for you
Who pinches you softly but sure
If frown is shown then
I will know that you are no dreamer

So let me come to you
Close as I wanted to be
Close enough for me
To feel your heart beating fast
And stay there as I whisper

How I loved your peaceful eyes on me
did you ever know
That I had mine on you

Darling, so share with me
Your love if you have enough
Your tears if your're holding back
Or pain if that's what it is
How can I let you know
I'm more than the dress and the voice
Just reach me out then
You will know that you're not dreaming

Darling, so there you are
With that look on your face
As if you're never hurt
As if you're never down
Shall I be the one for you
Who pinches you softly but sure
If frown is shown then
I will know that you are no dreamer
