Written in these walls are the stories that I can't explain I leave my heart open, but it stays right here empty for days She told me in the morning she don't feel the same about us in her bones It seems to me that when I die, these words will be written on my stone And I'll be gone, gone tonight The ground beneath my feet is open wide The way that I've been holding on too tight With nothing in between The story of my life, I take her home I drive all night to keep her warm and time Is frozen (the story of, the story of) The story of my life, I give her hope I spend her love until she's broke inside The story of my life (the story of, the story of) Written on these walls are the colors that I can't change Leave my heart open, but it stays right here in its cage I know that in the morning I'll see us in the light upon your hill Although I am broken, my heart is untamed still And I'll be gone, gone tonight The fire beneath my feet is burning bright The way that I've been holding on too tight With nothing in between The story of my life, I take her home I drive all night to keep her warm and time Is frozen And I've been waiting for this time to come around But, baby, running after you is like chasing the clouds, oh The story of my life, I take her home I drive all night to keep her warm and time Is frozen The story of my life, I give her hope I spend her love until she's broke inside The story of my life (the story of my life, the story of) The story of my life The story of my life The story of my life

Another head hangs lowly Child is slowly taken And the violence, caused such silence Who are we mistaken? But you see, it's not me It's not my family In your head, in your head, they are fighting With their tanks, and their bombs And their bombs, and their guns In your head, in your head they are crying In your head, in your head Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie What's in your head, in your head Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie, oh Du, du, du, du Du, du, du, du Du, du, du, du Du, du, du, du Another mother's breaking Heart is taking over When the violence causes silence We must be mistaken It's the same old theme Since nineteen-sixteen In your head, in your head, they're still fighting With their tanks, and their bombs And their bombs, and their guns In your head, in your head, they are dying In your head, in your head Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie What's in your head, in your head Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie

It's a little bit funny this feeling inside I'm not one of those who can easily hide I don't have much money but boy if I did I'd buy a big house where we both could live If I was a sculptor, but then again, no Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show I know it's not much but it's the best I can do My gift is my song and this one's for you And you can tell everybody this is your song It may be quite simple but now that it's done I hope you don't mind I hope you don't mind That I put down in words How wonderful life is While you're in the world I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss Well a few of the verses well they've got me quite cross But the sun's been quite kind while I wrote this song It's for people like you that keep it turned on So excuse me forgetting but these things I do You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue Anyway the thing is what I really mean Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen And you can tell everybody this is your song It may be quite simple but now that it's done I hope you don't mind I hope you don't mind That I put down in words How wonderful life is While you're in the world

There was a time I used to look into my father's eyes In a happy home I was a queen, I had a golden throne Those days are gone The memories are on the wall Still hear the sounds From the places where I was born Upon a hill across the blue lake That's where I had my first heartbreak I still remember how it all changed My father said Don't you worry, don't you worry, child Heaven's got a plan for you Don't you worry, don't you worry now My father said Don't you worry, don't you worry, child Heaven's got a plan for you Don't you worry, don't you worry now We were so young, I think of him now and then I hear the songs reminding me of a friend Don't you worry, don't you worry, child Heaven's got a plan for you Don't you worry, child

I need your love I need your time When everything's wrong You make it right I feel so high I come alive I need to be free with you tonight I need your love I take a deep breath everytime I pass your door I know you're there but I can't see you anymore And that's the reason you're in the dark I've been a stranger ever since we fell apart I feel so out of see Watch my eyes are filled with fear Tell me do you feel the same Hold me in your arms again I need your love I need your time When everything's wrong You make it right I feel so high I come alive I need to be free with you tonight I need your love Now I'm dreaming, will ever find you now? I walk in circles but I'll never figure out What I mean to you, do I belong I try to fight this but I know I'm not that strong All the years All the times You were never been to blame And now my eyes are open And now my heart is closing And all the tears All the lies I've been trying to make it change And now my eyes are open I need your love I need your time When everything's wrong You make it right I feel so high I come alive I need to be free I need your love

Where have all good men gone And where are all the gods? Where's the street-wise Hercules To fight the rising odds? Isn't there a white knight upon a fiery steed? Late at night I toss and turn and dream of what I Need I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night He's gotta be strong And he's gotta be fast And he's gotta be fresh from the fight I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero 'til the morning light He's gotta be sure And it's gotta be soon And he's gotta be larger than life Somewhere after midnight In my wildest fantasy Somewhere just beyond my reach There's someone reaching back for me Racing on the thunder and rising with the heat It's gonna take a superman to sweep me off my feet I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night He's gotta be strong And he's gotta be fast And he's gotta be fresh from the fight Up where the mountains meet the heavens above Out where the lightning splits the sea I would swear that there's someone somewhere Watching me Through the wind and the chill and the rain And the storm and the flood I can fell his approach Like a fire in my blood I need a hero 'Til the end of the morning light He's gotta be strong And he's gotta be fast And he's gotta be fresh from the fight
