Every time I look at you, I go blind.
Every time I look at you, I go blind.
Every time I look at you, I go blind.
Every time I look at you, I go blind.
In the morning, I get up, and I try to feel
alive, but I can't.
Every time I look at you, I go blind.
I don't know, what it is. Something in me
just won't give me a chance.
I think it's that I feel, more confused by the deal, love has
shown me.
Little child did you know that there's a
light?
And it's gonna shine right through your eyes.
What did you think that love is like?
Every time I look at you, I go blind. I go blind.
Well, somewhere over there, there's a
purpose, there's a care for free.
In me there's nobody, no one plan, no one stand to be free.
I think it's that because, I have seen all
the fuss and it's no big deal.
No big deal.
Hold me, hold me 'cause I want to get higher
and higher.
Every time I look at you, I go blind.
Hold me, hold me 'cause I want to get higher and higher.
Every time I look at you, I go blind.
Hold me, hold me 'cause I want to get higher and higher.
Every time I look at you, I go blind.
Hold me, hold me 'cause I want to get higher and higher.
Every time I look at you, I go blind.
It's hard to rely on my good intentions
When my head's full of things that I can't mention
Seems I usually get things right
But I can't understand what I did last night
It's hard to rely on my own good senses
When I miss so much that requires attention
Have to laugh at myself sometimes
And I can see that I'm not blind
There's little relief
Give us reprieve
For all the things I've left behind
I'm positive that I'm not blind
I'm not afraid things won't get better
But it feels like this has gone on forever
You have to cry with your own blue tears
Have to laugh with your own good cheer
It's hard to rely on my good intentions
When my head's full of things that I can't mention
Seems I usually get things right
But I can't understand what I did last night
There's little relief
Give us reprieve
Imagining the world outside
I'm positive that I'm not blind
I can't be hard on you
'Cause you know I've been there too
Learned a lot of things from you
But life gives little relief
Give us reprieve
And when everyone is cold as ice
I clinch my fists and close my eyes
Imagining the world outside
But I can see that i'm not blind
Some things come to he who waits
But all is lost if you hesitate
And I was never one to wait
You'll know you were loved
You can hire great lawyers you can speak to
your friends
You can say "he did this and that" - some things don't
change
Unwrap the present and burn the remains
But you'll know you were loved
Now you take Rosco he ain't much
People say things are ruined after his touch
It's like a tar was driven from his brush
But you'll know you were loved
Or Stan and Jake emerging from your past
From those love affairs that didn't last
But me, I'll give it my last gasp
And you'll know you were loved
A parrot, a donkey, a dog or bone
Some of us never had a home
And if we did we left it long ago
And didn't know we were loved
Empty as a wooden clock
Left in the woods at 12 o'clock
Insides all of us could have spring his pop
But you'll know you were loved
Even when you sleep at night
Inside, your heart will cry
You can never say goodbye
When you know you were loved
Underachievers of the world unite
You have nothing to lose except your fright
And together we can perhaps pass a night when
You know you were loved
And together we can perhaps pass a night
when
You'll know you were loved
Come on
Come on
Shed the skin that's held you in
Yeah, held you far too long
Now how bad could it be,
If you should fall in love with me?
Now how bad could it be?
Sexuality
Come on
Come on
Kiss away the ones who say
"The lust you feel is wrong"
Now how bad could it be,
If you amuse yourself with me?
Now how bad could it be?
Sexuality
Release yourself upon me
And free the realms of chastity
Unleash your sexuality
On me
How bad could it be,
If you should lose yourself in me?
Yeah, how bad could it be?
Sexuality
Release yourself upon me,
And free the realms of chastity
Unleash your sexuality
On me
Release yourself upon me,
And free the realms of chastity
Unleash your sexuality
On me
A key in the door, a step on the floor,
A note on the table, and a meal in the micro
Note says "I'm in bed, please make sure that you're fed
If you're taking a shower, you can borrow my bathrobe
When I'm asleep I dream you move in next week"
I crumple the note and save it to put inside
CHORUS:
My shoe box
Shoe box of lies
Shoe box
Shoe box of lies
It's under my bed, it's never been read
It's in with my school stuff and my mom never cleans there
From my first little fib, when I still wore a bib
To my latest attempt at pretending I'm someone
Who's not seventeen, doesn't know what you mean
When talk to single malts, or stilton, or
CHORUS
Did somebody tell you
This is how it's supposed to be?
Or did you just find it
And you don't want any more from me?
CHORUS
Was it something I said, or was it something
you read
That's making me think I should never have come here
I can offer you lies, I can tell you good-bye,
I can tell you I'm sorry, but I can't tell you the truth, dear
And what if I could - would it do any good?
You'll still never get to see the contents of
CHORUS
You're so nineteen-ninety
And it's nineteen-ninety-four
Leave this world behind me
'Cause you don't want me anymore
I was hungry when I said
I never got to sleep
You go ahead
You can get whatever you want
There's a feeling in my belly
It's the new tomorrow scene
It's an interesting job
It's the fireworks
CHORUS :
I don't need it (I don't need it)
I hit my head (he hit his head)
I can't feel anything
You gave too much away
You came to say
It's a free world baby
And you gave too much away
(get whatever you want)
Me, I'm tired of this candy
My teeth ache my head
Boys in bed, girls in bed
All now go to sleep
Sleep, sweet dreams
Wake to a new today tomorrow
CHORUS
Boys in bed, girls in bed
All now go to sleep
Sleep, sweet dreams
Wake to a new today tomorrow
Sleep, sweet dreams
Wake to a new today tomorrow
CHORUS
(repeat last verse)
Sunshine go away today
Don't feel much like dancing
Some man's gone he's trying to run my life
Don't know what he's asking
He tells me I better get in line
I can't hear what he's saying
When I grow up I'm gonna make him mine
Please help dude I'm in pain
How much does it cost?
I'll buy it
The time is all we lost
I'll try it
He can't even run his own life
Be damned if he'll run mine
Sunshine
Sunshine go away today
I don't feel much like dancing
Some man's gone he's trying to run my life
Don't know what he's asking
When working starts to make me wonder to
wear
The feats are what I do, I'm going
He says in love and war all is fair
He's got cards he ain't showing
How much does it cost?
I'll buy it
The time is all we lost
I'll try it
He can't even run his own life
Be damned if he'll run mine
Sunshine
Sunshine go away today
I can't feel much like singing
And this old world, she's gonna turn around
The brand new bells will be a-ringing
There'll be no strings to bind your hands
not if my love can't bind your heart.
And there's no need to take a stand
for it was I who chose to start.
I see no need to take me home,
I'm old enough to face the dawn.
Just call me angel of the morning ANGEL
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby.
Just call me angel of the morning ANGEL
Then slowly turn away from me.
Maybe the sun's light will be dim
and it won't matter anyhow.
If morning's echo says we ve sinned,
Well, it was what I wanted now.
And if we're the victims of the night,
I won't be blinded by light.
Just call me angel of the morning ANGEL
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby.
Just call me angel of the morning ANGEL
Then slowly turn away,
I won't beg you to stay with me
Through the tears of the day,
Of the years, baby baby baby.
Just call me angel of the morning ANGEL
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby.
There's a room where I can go and tell my
secrets to
In my room, in my room
In this world I lock out all my worries and
my cares
In my room, in my room
Do my dreaming and my scheming
Lie awake and pray
Do my crying and my sighing
Laugh at yesterday
Now it's dark and I'm alone and I won't be
afraid
In my room, in my room
In my room, in my room
In my room, in my room

It ain't no big deal that,
I feel you are layin' him
I see you lain against the floor
It ain't nobody's business
Who you see or who you kiss
I feel you breathing in the hall
CHORUS :
It's okay,
Stained and not for fun
I won't stain your blood
I won't stain love (x2)
Got an eye for an exit
And an ear that just begs to
I hear does anybody here think you're great
Forever they ignore us
Not the guys that only bores us
Together we're gonna love everything that they hate
CHORUS
I don't care
If she's right
Cross my heart
Hope to die
Is it love?
They're gonna talk about us
They're gonna stare when we walk by
They're gonna talk about us
For the first time in our lives
CHORUS
Is it love?
Is it love?
