Twenty Seven - Layto

Some folks say there's a price on love Watch your freedom go watch your freedom go Just can't breathe when you're 'hand in glove' Watch your freedom go baby I don't know But how can they mean it How come they give it up How long until they see The modern laws of lovin' don't apply to me Chorus Twenty four seven stay here with me Twenty four seven throw away the key Twenty four seven I don't wanna be free You get by if you kiss and tell Hear the people say hear the people say Two strong hearts gotta share one cell Hear the people say but it ain't my way How can they mean it how come they add it up I'll give my heart and my soul if loving you is prison I don't need parol Chorus Twenty four seven stay here with me Twenty four seven throw away the key Twenty four seven I don't wanna be free free free Twenty four seven around the clock Twenty four seven I never want it to stop Twenty four seven mmmm here with me I'm gonna count the time That you're gonna be mine Seven days a week Twenty four hours ain't enough for me How can they mean it How come they add it up I'm gonna give my heart and my soul if loving you is prison I don't need parol Repeat chorus

The bus was late And forced us all to congregate Twenty seven strangers Made to stand and wait The time went by The sun went down A baby cried I just stood in line But there is no cue No stage hand saying what to do And you are me And I am you The bus it came And everybody loaded in Twenty seven strangers In a moving can The fluorescent light Doubled everyone inside The baby's face reflected In the shop fronts, in the sky But faces change And rules they all get rearranged And photographs All fade away The bus broke down At the graveyard on the edge of town Twenty seven strangers Separate without a sound So I walked home Just feeling nothing on my own Noticing that tree of yours I've been watching it grow So that's why I'm late My dearest one what can I say And tomorrow it could be the same When I do it all again

Oh baby, can we find a way to live together? Can we try to start a new? We'll survive in rain and stormy weather, Take this chance for me and you... Walking all alone but I don't ever realize, That it's a question of love, but with a high price. Being together make me feel like a happy man, But now you're gone, And I don't understand. Can you remember all the good times, When the power of love was like a good lime. I keep on askin' why becuase I wanna know, Why you had to go and go. You see, a girl like you is like a dream cometrue, You can't imagine how I feel, but what can I do? It is a fact of life, that after all these years, Now I'm standing in the rain, My eyes in tears. Tell me, will I see you again and tell me when, Is there a chance of love, but even then. If we were ment to be, we're gonna stay, Yeah, maybe some day. I wanna hold you in my arms and give You all my charms, girl Cause now it's cold, but I wanna be so warm, girl. I can't concentrate, I can't hold the line, Can it be to late get back what's mine? Everybody needs a love, Everybody needs a good love, Now let me tell you. But sometimes you you can't help but losing, It is a part of life without choosing. Wondering for hours around and going nowhere I see the couples around me, But I don't care. I guess my time will come, So I just have to wait, Looking for a new, finding out my own fate. I close my eyes and guess what I see, It's like a visio of you while your kissing me. It's not a lot but at least now I'm satisfied, Casuie if I can't have you here, I wanna dream all night. Oh baby! Can we find a way to live together? Can we start a new? Oh baby! We'll survive in rain and stormy weather. Take this chance for me and you. Tell me that we'll be together, Tell me why my feelings are afraid. Give me time to make it better, Or give me one good reason now to wait.

Breakin' up is so hard to do, To bye a love that you knew. To walk away with a broken heart again, Is sometimes hard to understand. But what can you do, that's the way it is, Try to hold on cause even this Is a way to make you know, A way to know. Love, what a funny thing, It can bring you up and down and sing. Make you feel like a clown in the rain, Just play the rules of the game. Sometimes you win, but you can also loose, That's the nature of what you choose. So now you're breakin' up, But don't stop, don't stop. Make up your mind and start again, I'm sure you'll find a new boyfriend. Find a plan and then do it right, Don't decide after overnight. Everybody has a time of life now to break-up, Just remember always to make up. Come back to what you know, Go, go!
