LYRICS

Let me hear your voices singin' out loud
Let me hear some noises, if you know how
Let me see your hands clappin' in time
Let me see you dance and have a good time

Oh, the music's fine
Oh, just like old time
Oh, while the sun still shines
Pick up my guitar and play
Sing the songs of yesterday

People try and tell me 'bout some brand new sound
From what I hear, it's only clear, it comes around
There ain't nothin' new 'bout havin' some fun
Get together and sing some songs with everyone

Oh, can you hear the sound?
Oh, spreadin' all around
Oh, when the sun goes down
Pick up my guitar and play
Sing the songs of yesterday

Early hours of another day fade away
They fade away, but you still stay
You're the only one who makes me feel this way

Turn my head and I see you there - you're everywhere
You're everywhere, and you still care
Could it be your love that makes me feel this way?

Love'll turn you around / it'll leave you upside-down
But no one can take away the love you've found
It'll turn you away / bring you back another day
Leave you by my side and walk away

Morning hour comes too soon / what can I do?
When the morning hour comes too soon
Pull a pillow across my head / it smells like you
When the morning hour comes too soon

See the light, it shines on me / too much for my eyes
You were right here, next to me / by my side
In the morning hour

Sleepy dream inside my head / I dream of you
But the morning hour comes too soon
Dreamed you right here next to me / you smelled like you
But the morning hour comes too soon

See the light, it shines on me / too much for the dawn
You were right here, next to me / and now you're gone
In the morning hour

Dreams escape from me / dreams turn sour
Dreams of you and me escape from me / history
In the morning hour

Across the ocean, there's so much to see
Big city's waiting - waiting there for me
Across the ocean

I left my home to see what I could see
Big city's calling - calling out to me
I left my home to see what I could see

L.A., Hollywood, that's the place to be
New York City skyline, I just had to see
East coast, West coast, in between - Now I know just what they mean
When they call it Paradise

Home, if you remember me
Home, please save a place for me
'Cause I'm on my way, I leave today, and I can't wait to see
My home is where I want to be

Across the ocean, there's a place for me
Blue sky is waiting - waiting there for me
Across the ocean

She says she loves you when there's nothing else to say
She says she needs you, and then she turns away
She used to say 'forever'
Now that's just a memory

She used to be the only one - the only one she loved
But now she's almost gone - you're almost out of love
She says she's had enough
She's given up on love

She says,
"Don't let it tear you apart - it's only a change of heart"

When the rain goes away / won't be back another day
She's left you all alone / you're on your own

Seasons change, and the wind blows away
Fallen leaves around your cage - don't let it pass you by
Find the key, open up your eyes, realize:
There's a book that's waiting for you turn the page
And walk away

you can hang on to dreams that you hold dear
But dreams fade away - you can watch them disappear
You can listen, but you can't hear what tomorrow has to say
'Till you turn your back on yesterday
And walk away

It ain't easy, but it's what you've got to do
It ain'r easy, but it's calling out to you

You can't hear what tomorrow has to say
'Till you turn your back on yesterday
And walk away

I want to know the story / she never says the same thing twice
My love burns like a fire / her fire is more like ice
She's gone and found another place to call a home
And I'm left alone

I gave the world away / she kept her own
I came outside to play / she wasn't home
She's gone and found another face to call her own
And I'm left alone

I was the one who came straight home from school
She was the one who broke all the rules
I was the fool

Rain fills an empty heart
You and happiness are miles apart
The sky is grey, and you can't recall the last time
The sun shined - the sun shined
It's been a long, long time, you've been alone
And still you stand tall, even though
The rain falls down, you know
The sun will shine again

Walk with me in the rain
Turn around and go back home again
And when I'm gone, you can't recall the last time
The sun shined - the sun shined
And when the rain falls down, just like a tear
You hold your head high, and even though
You cry inside, now you know
The sun will shine again

Now you're alone again
You can't see clear skies ahead
But you'll be fine, the wounds will heal in time
When the sun shines - the sun shines
The sun not seen lies in between
The drops of rain
Ignore the pain
The sun will shine again

Time and time again, alone without a friend
You come to me
Here I am, holding out my hand, doing all I can
To show you what you want to see

But I can't be your superman
I can only be your lover
So, if you need a magic man
Don't come to me

Tears, like rain fall from your eyes - I try, and then I try
To make you understand
A man is all I am - not a shepherd for this lamb
Just a black sheep doing what he can

'Forever, girl', that is what he'd say
'Forever, girl, forever and a day'
But promising 'forever', he would turn and walk away
When she believed deep inside that he would stay
Forever, girl, forever and a day.

A lonely girl should fill her lonely day
A lonely girl should find another way
But she would never find the answers in her lonely way
Believing deep inside that he would stay
A lonely girl should find another way

She knew that time would ease her mind, but still she had to cry
And now she sits alone at night, and she don't know why
She had to cry, but she had to cry

A moment, girl, can fill the empty years
A moment, girl, can wash away your tears
Just a moment, you and I will find a better way
If you'll believe deep inside that I will stay
A moment, girl, will find a better way
