I can't believe I could have been so blind But love is strange I thought about it for a long long time But the truth remains I don't need another lonely night To dry my tears The answer's plain as black and white And I can see the picture very clear I've been living on the edge of a broken heart I don't wanna fall, I don't wanna crawl I've been living on the edge of a broken heart Don't you wonder why I gotta say goodbye It isn't like you never had the chance To change your tune Did you think that I'm a dime a dance Well, the dance is through I've been doing things for way too long Baby, that's over (baby, that's over) It won't be easy but I gotta be strong If I wanna cry I don't need your shoulder I've been living on the edge of a broken heart I don't wanna fall, I don't wanna crawl I've been living on the edge of a broken heart Don't you wonder why I gotta say goodbye I'll find someone else Who's nothing like you Two can play the game as well And you'll be sorry, baby When it's over I've been doing things for way too long Baby, that's over (baby, that's over) It won't be easy but I gotta be strong And if I wanna cry I don't need your shoulder I've been living on the edge of a broken heart I don't wanna fall, I don't wanna crawl I've been living on the edge of a broken heart Don't you wonder why I gotta say goodbye I've been living on the edge of a broken heart I've been living on the edge of a broken heart Don't you wonder why I gotta say goodbye I've been living on the edge of a broken heart

Drip-drop; rain on my rooftop Don't stop; it's the melody of a broken heart Melody of a broken heart Drip-drop; this rain on my rooftop and it don't stop It's the melody of a broken heart Melody of a broken heart Beyond anything I need your voice I need to hear it every second, Every word because I don't know I never say it but I don't know Can I be the air that you breathe? I can speak the language you speak And when all is said and done I'll be coming home Always be coming home I wanna be the air that you breathe So when you feel like drowning You know you can't count on me I wanna be the air that you breathe So when you feel like drowning You know you can't count on me I see you every I go in every single soul I feel your presence in the wind and anytime it blows I feel whole I'm broken for you but I feel whole I can be the air that you're breathing I wanna speak every language you're speaking So when you feel like giving up because you're drowning I'll be the air you need and everything surrounding I wanna be the air that you breathe So when you feel like drowning You know you can't count on me I wanna be the air that you breathe So when you feel like drowning You know you can't count on me Drip-drop; rain on my roof top Don't stop; it's the melody of a broken heart The melody of a broken heart Oh I said this drip-drop; this rain on my rooftop and it don't stop It's the melody of my broken heart Melody of my broken heart

Lord unchain my hands Let me sing inside the crowded trams Let me dance among the traffic jams We're going to sleep On the St Kilda sands Lord unbind my feet Let me mingle with the good people We meet Water rising up into the street Unbind my feet 'The apparition of these faces in The crowd; Petals on a wet black bough" Ezra Pound found the formula Our houses are rectangular But life is curved not angular So when things start to strangular Remember Rain still falls on the halls of power New babies being born every hour And the eagle keeps watch on the old clock tower Over me... (CHORUS) On the train I refrain from sitting with head and shoulders bowed They told me time is of the essence No wandering allowed But then I saw a pretty girl Whose features stood out in the crowd Went ten minutes past my stop waiting for her to look around I'm just another clown kicking around in Melbourne town Cooling out, relaxing watching the World go round So if you ever have the time And you want to go drink some wine I'd rather greet you with a smile Than greet you with a frown... Lord unchain my hands Let me sing inside the crowded trams Let me dance among the traffic jams We're going to sleep On the St Kilda sands Lord unbind my feet Let me mingle with the good people We meet Water rising up into the street Unbind my feet

And for all of the sweet loving that I have received In the sun in the rain By the moon by the sea There is one time that I'm thinking of On time where one woman Did knock me off my feet And my knees were shaking And my jaw was dropping And my eyes were squinting And my smile was growing And my pants were bulging And my hands were sweating And my chest was beating So I cried "excuse me, What is the secret to your soul?" Cause when you're walking along And when you're walking along Your legs are a melody my hands Would like to play And your hips are a not That does take me away And your face and your eyes and your hair And your waist and your smile Drive me to distraction She turned and she gave the evil eye "Why thank you" she said Then she sigh "Oh there's one thing I think you failed to mention" "What?" I said, then she said "It's the rhythm you forgot" And right then I knew what was what And she snuck to my lips And she kissed them She said "Young man, I'll show you some rhythm" And she'll show you some rhythm And since then, ha The ryhthm's been running through my veins In my thoughts in my eyes In my head it's insane It's the thing that does drive me To scream On the street when I think of some Places it's taken me I feel horny when I'm thinking of some of that Rhythm in my mind What she gave, what she gives To me all of the time Say a little bit of sweet loving in your day All my friends know it keeps the Bad thoughts away So sing with your hips my baby When you're dancing to this tune And when this tune is through We'll sneak to some place And continue to... So sing with your hips my baby When you're dancing to this tune And when this tune is through We'll sneak to some place And continue to... She said i'll show you some rhythm And she'll show you some rhythm

Oh this man he wakes up in the morning Don't know where His eyes do squint The sun does glare Stands up yawns Does stretch his limbs Turns his face to the sun And begins to sing Seen many places Done many things I've been drinking from the earth I've see the world from within Had my share of women And I've had my share of fights I've been searching for the moon I've seen some long long nights Shook too many hands And I made too many bets My friends are all gypsies And I laughed before I wept I learnt how to live when I saw that sunrise And now I sing this song about looking on my life Some say you should try to be rich man Some they say you should be number one But my wealth will be inside And will grow under the sun Some say you should try to be rich man Some they say you should be number one But my wealth will be inside And will grow under the sun After hearing this song I feel some warmth on my face I look into the sky And start to feel a sense of place This mans song means something to me My eyes they do open And I sing this melody Might write some mystery Might read some text Might create a family This world I might affect Might be a wise man Might be a fool Be conquering like a tiger Or suffer like a mule Might learn too late But might drift in sleep Might learn how to hide my thoughts And promises to keep All these things my life might see And now I be singing about how my life might be and Some say you should try to be rich man Some they say you should be number one But my wealth will be inside And will grow under the sun Some say you should try to be rich man Some they say you should be number one But my wealth will be inside And will grow under the sun After hearing this song I feel some warmth on my face I look into the sky and start to feel a sense of place This mans song means something to me My eyes do open and I sing this melody Might write some mystery Might read some text Might create a family This world I might affect Might be a wise man Might be a fool Be conquering like a tiger Or suffer like a mule Might learn too late But might drift in sleep Might learn how to hide my thoughts And promises to keep All these things my life might see And now I be singing about how my life might be and Some say you should try to be rich man Some they say you should be number one But my wealth will be inside And will grow under the sun Some say you should try to be rich man Some they say you should be number one But my wealth will be inside And will grow under the sun

I felt my heart rate begin to Choke out the fucking noise like I was cursed It felt like storms were directly overhead And where I went it poured And in a flash came the flood that washed over my eyes Now I could see inside the room of the blind I lost myself inside And as I fell into the black I left my past to die Tonight we'll sail to the edge of the world And watch the stars fall down You'll put your head in my arms as we wonder "Is there anything we could've done?" Why not try starting revolution? And in the morning find a new sunrise Tonight we'll sail to the edge of the world And watch the stars fall down As our world ignites What will we do? Will we sit back and watch? I'm sick of apathy dictating how I think and how I talk I'd like to know as I lay down to die I still control the way I think, before they make up my mind As I gaze up towards the sky I feel lost in the world of the blinding lights We all hope to reach these heights But we're all so afraid of the fall No one will take the fall We're all so comfortable with living in our sheltered holes No one will take the fall But if we try, we could all change the world Tonight we'll sail to the edge of the world And watch the stars fall down You'll put your head in my arms as we wonder "Is there anything we could've done?" Why not try starting revolution? And in the morning find a new sunrise Tonight we'll sail to the edge of the world And watch the stars fall down As our world ignites We are gathered here today as brothers and sisters Not bound by fate But by the understanding that our survival Lies only in harmony We have only one life to live And then we're cast into the night Will you carry the torch and be the keeper of the light? Or will you let darkness fall? Or will you let darkness fall? Tonight we'll sail to the edge of the world Tonight we'll sail to the edge of the world Tonight we'll sail to the edge of the world And watch the stars fall down You'll put your head in my arms as we wonder "Is there anything? Is there anything?"
