I got the call today, I didn't wanna hear But I knew that it would come An old true friend of ours was talkin' on the phone She said you found someone And I thought of all the bad luck And all the struggles we went through How I lost me and you lost you What are these voices outside love's open door Make us throw off our contentment And beg for something more? I've been learning to live without you now But I miss you sometimes The more I know, the less I understand All the things I thought I knew, I'm learning them again I've been tryin' to get down to the heart of the matter But my will gets weak And my thoughts seem to scatter But I think it's about forgiveness Forgiveness Even if, even if you don't love me anymore These times are so uncertain There's a yearning undefined And people filled with rage We all need a little tenderness How can love survive in such a graceless age And the trust and self-assurance that lead to happiness They're the very things we kill, I guess Pride and competition cannot fill these empty arms And the work they put between us You know it doesn't keep us warm I've been trying to live without you now But I miss you, baby The more I know, the less I understand And all the things I thought I figured out, I have to learn again I've been tryin' to get down to the heart of the matter But my will gets weak And my heart is so shattered But I think it's about forgiveness Forgiveness Even if, even if you don't love me anymore All the people in your life who've come and gone They let you down, you know they hurt your pride Better put it all behind you; 'cause life goes on You keep carryin' that anger, it'll eat you up inside I wanna be happily, ever, after And my heart is so shattered But I know it's about forgiveness Forgiveness Even if, even if you don't love me anymore I've been tryin' to get down to the heart of the matter Because the flesh will get weak And the ashes will scatter So I'm thinkin' about forgiveness Forgiveness Even if you don't love me anymore Even if you don't love me anymore

You're looking for a way out, I can feel it Come on, show me where it hurts, maybe I can heal it Your feelings are your own, now you keep them under lock and key You've got me driving through the streets for an answer to the mystery The world's still awake on Charleston Avenue Outside that vacant starlight motel I see you Laughing with your girlfriends Not a care in the world Not a burden on your mind It was a matter of time There's a panic in this house and it's bound to surface Just walking through the front door makes me nervous It's creeping up the floorboards, got me wondering where I stand I cannot put out the fire, I've got a book of matches in my hand When we first met, headstrong and filled with doubt Made just enough, hustling tables, that summer to take you out I was falling back on forever When you told me about your heart You laid it on the line Laughing with your girlfriends Not a care in the world Not a burden on your mind You're hanging on the line! It was just a matter It was a matter of time We'd find ourselves a place, we belong in this forever Ain't that what it's all about? Make the promise and keep it Come hell or high water We'd figure it out It was the night, it was the moon It was the green grass in the garden The victory and the sin I know you're weary, look at me Flailing in the corner Here's the towel Go on, throw it in It was a matter of time Can't you see that it's tearing me up inside? Look what's laying at our feet That's the wreckage of broken dreams And burned out halos And it's here on our street

Every part in my heart I'm giving out Every song on my lips I'm singing out Any fear in my soul I'm letting go And anyone who ask I'll let them know She's the one, she's the one I say it loud She's the one, she's the one I say it proud Ring a bell, Ring a bell For the whole crowd Ring a bell, Ring a bell I'm telling the world That I've found a girl The one I can live for The one who deserves Every part in my heart I'm giving out Every song on my lips I'm singing out Any fear in my soul I'm letting go And anyone who ask I'll let them know She's the one, she's the one I say it loud She's the one, she's the one I say it proud Ring a bell, Ring a bell For the whole crowd Ring a bell, Ring a bell I'm telling the world That I've found a girl The one I can live for The one who deserves To give all my heart A reason to fly The one I can live for A reason for life Oe oh oe oh Yeah yeah Oe oh oe oh Yeah yeah Oe oh oe oh Yeah yeah

It's a lifelong project of a life on the lash I've forgotten how to care but I'll remember for cash It's my party and I'll cry if I want to Light the fuse, sing the blues, I can die if I want to Tonight we're gonna bring tomorrow's happiness Gonna live like it's the end I love you to death, but I must suggest You'd better run, run, run boy Faster than the past Through the looking glass If you want the night to last You'd better run, run, run boy Faster than the past Through the looking glass If you want the night to last He's an old time blagger Wraps a hand in band Still knows the streets of Camden like the back of his hand He's an all time lover and a marathon man And with the strength of a thousand men He's a nightmare hangover He's a one night stand He can eat more chicken than any man in the land Well I've given up caring for happiness When this heart gives out is when I'll rest Run, run, run boy Faster than the past Through the looking glass If you want the night to last You'd better run, run, run boy Faster than the past Through the looking glass If you want the night to last Cause tonight we are gonna spend All tomorrow's happiness If we don't break before we bend And tonight your sole aside It'll turn out nice again It's only money in the end Run, run, run boy Faster than the past Through the looking glass If you want the night to last You'd better run, run, run boy Faster than the past Through the looking glass If you want the night to last You'd better run, run, run boy Faster than the past Through the looking glass If you want the night to last You'd better run

You'll never fumigate the demons No matter how much you smoke So just say you love me For three good reasons And I'll throw you the rope You don't need it Because you are the survivor Of more than one life And you're the only lover I had Who ever slept with a knife But you're not Judy Garland Oh Just like me you've never really had a home Of your own But I'm not Tony Hancock baby Until the dawn We'll stone the crows We'll stone the crows We'll stone the crows And you see I've brought you flowers I've brought you flowers All collected from the Old Vic Stage Well I've been sitting here for hour's baby Just chasing these words Across the page Cos you're my Waterloo I'll be your Gypsy Lane I'm so glad we know just what to do And exactly who's to blame And you're my Waterloo I'll be your Stanley Park Well I'm so glad we know just what to do And no ones left Stumbling around Tumbling around Fumbling around In the dark Always in the dark Always in the dark Always in the dark You're my Waterloo I'll be your Calvary Well I'm so glad we know just what to do And everyone's gonna be happy Everyone's gonna be happy Everyone's gonna be happy But of course

The only rule to stay alive Just keep breathing you'll be fine You know she's pulling up outside The car lights crawl across the curtain So put the gun back on the wall Take the suitcase from the wardrobe There's a dead man on the floor He's not going anywhere You're moving to the door And everything he ever did He only ever did for love Everything he ever said He only ever said for love And now, now he lies dead, He's dead for love His mind's at ease, he sleeps in peace Your reflection in her eyes You just don't recognise And soon you'll realise This guy's not going anywhere Now he's done with you once more Race with the shadows to the door A guy like this needs to be sure No one was there was there when the devil rode out before And everything he ever did He only ever did for love Everything he ever said He only ever said for love And now, now he lies dead, Oh he's dead for love His mind's at ease, he sleeps in peace In English shadows you will walk tall And there you'll stay until you fall And when the final hour arrives It's only lovers left alive Wretched souls and gangsters' molls Beyond the valley of the dolls The story they will never tell Because their lips are sealed And everything you ever did You only ever did for love And everything you ever said You only ever said for love And now, now he lies dead, Oh he's dead for love Your mind's at ease, you sleep in peace And everything you ever did You only ever did for love And everything you ever said You only ever said for love And now, now he lies dead, Oh he's dead for love Your mind's at ease, you sleep in peace

They just don't make That kind of license anymore That way of life anymore That type of world anymore What you've done Get out of my dreams you scum They weren't meant for anyone They weren't meant for anyone but me In my cinematic mind I see battles fought at sea I awake in dawn's empire It must be lonely being you being me What you've done Get out of my dreams you scum They weren't meant for anyone but me What you've done I just get so over-run Impossible dreams they come for me For me It's for the worlds they never see This beatific revelry By windswept kisses heavens rave Lovers rise and fall and fall and rise again What you've done Get out of my dreams you scum They weren't meant for anyone but me What you've done I just get so over-run These unthoughtful dreams they come for me What you've done Get out of my dreams you scum They weren't meant for anyone but me But me
