Angels

Don't it feel right
Lyin' here tonight
Everything's surreal
I think you know the way I feel
And when we touch in the night
I know the angels
They got it right
Angels, angels
They've got their eye on me
Angels, angels
It's plain to see
Angels, angels
They're watching over me
Don't it feel nice
To get away from that fight
When we walk downtown
The way we talk when no one's around
And when we kiss in the night
I know the angels
They got it right
Angels, angels
They've got their eye on me
Angels, angels
It's plain to see
Angels, angels
They're watching over me
Over me, over me
They're watching over me
Over me, over me
They're watching over me
Angels, angels
They've got their eye on me
Angels, angels
It's plain to see
Angels, angels
They're watching over me

Won't Go

Open up your eyes it's Monday
Take a look around this last day
Call up the president, call up a witness
Better pack it up it's Monday
Time to say goodbye, time to say
It's over, forever
Won't go, won't leave my world behind
Won't go, won't let it slip away
Won't go, won't leave my world behind
Better hurry up it's Monday
No time to wonder, no time to waste
It's time to find your boarding gate
Call up the president, call up the princess
We need someone, we need a witness
on this day, on this historic day
Won't go, won't leave my world behind
Won't go, won't let it slip away
Won't go, won't leave my world behind

LA

Everybody wants her, LA
Where the sunshine meets a smoggy shoreline
From another town, LA
The glitters not so bright as you get closer
I can see that she's lost her heart again
I can see that there's not much point in
Hanging around, hanging around
Hanging around, hanging around
We gotta go see, LA
Where everybody says it's all so fine there
Never mind she's been around some
She always fresh beneath that yellow sunshine
I can see that she's lost her heart again
I can see that there's not much point in
Hanging around, hanging around
Hanging around, hanging around

Don't cry now Suzy
I know things go astray
And everybody thinks
They've got the right to say
Don't waste those teardrops
Don't waste another day
There'll be another chance
To find out your own way
Hey, oh Hey Suzy
Hey, oh Hey Suzy
I know we've grown up
Things all go by so fast
Start to wonder
What happened to the past
Some days it's better
You know that this just can't last
Bad comes in threes and it's already past
Hey, oh Hey Suzy
Hey, oh Hey Suzy
Won't cry now Suzy
Remember the fun we had
Late nights, blue skies
Summer on the Ave
Maybe tomorrow
There's sunlight across your face
Love and happiness
A state of grace
Hey, Hey Suzy
Hey, Hey Suzy

Walking Home
03:43

|
I can hear the streetlight hummin'
I can hear the cars their coming and they're gone
I can feel the night it's fallin'
Down on the neighborhood it's coming on
I could see the words were hard to find
Telling me that you're no longer mine
And I'm walking home
I'm walking, walking home
So alone, walking home
Walking home, walking home
Walking away
I'll go to Mexico
I'll go to somewhere they won't know my name
I'll take a pickup truck
Highway 5 down through the rain
I could see the words were hard to find
Telling me that you're no longer mine
And I'm walking home
I'm walking, walking home
So alone, walking home
Walking home, walking home
Walking away

Sunset City

A little trouble in sunset city
What to do when the sun goes down
I've got a friend with a girl so pretty
We get together when he's out of town
Did my best to try to forget her
Did my best just to stay away
But when we touch we touch because
And when we kiss we kiss because
And when we love we love because
It's lonely in the city when the sunlight fades away
There's a rumor in sunset city
About a boyfriend that's back in town
Heard she's been just a little too cozy
Heard his women's been runnin' around
If I were him I'd never forgive me
How the hell can I explain
That when we touch we touch because
And when we kiss we kiss because
And when we love we love because
It's lonely in the city when the sunlight fades away
A little trouble in sunset city
A little heat when the sun goes down
She's a friend but she's so pretty
We're together when he's out of town
I did my best to try to forget her
Still I lover her anyway
Because when we touch we touch because
And when we kiss we kiss because
And when we love we love because
It's lonely in the city
It's lonely in the city when
It's lonely in the city when the sunlight fades away

Take A Train

Written by Dave Dysart
Take a train to the Mersey
Follow it down to her banks
Take a train to the Mersey
To see if there's still a chance
And if she's mine tonight
Then everything's all right
I'll see her there
Down in the morning light
Take a train to the Mersey
Wander onto her fields
Take a train the Mersey
To see if this could be real
And if she's mine tonight
Then everything's all right
I'll see her there
Down in the morning light
(Solo)
And if she's mine tonight
Everything's all right
I'll see her there
Down in the morning light
When I grow old
Will I look back
And see my world
As clear as glass
And if she's mine tonight
Then everything's all right
I'll see her there
Down in the morning light
Take a train to the Mersey
Take a train to the Mersey
Take a train to the Mersey

Fade Away
03:48

6 O'clock in the morning
I can hear my own heart beating
Daylight crawls upon the wall
Feelin' broken
No longer hoping
That there's a happy ending after all
Out here on my own
Like a Sunday morning
I can feel it slip away
Like a footstep falling
I can feel you fade away
9 O'clock in the morning
Coffee's cold and I'm near freezing
Just staring at the walls
Whatever I said
I didn't mean it
Seems like I've always let you down
Out here on my own
Like a Sunday morning
I can feel it slip away
Like a footstep falling
I can feel you fade away
2 O'clock in the afternoon
I can turn my stereo up
I can see the pictures on my wall
See the faces
People, places
All the things that I once knew
I'm out here on my own
Like a Sunday morning
I can feel it slip away
Like a footstep falling
I can feel you fade away
Fade away

Keeps Me Running

Tried to call you the other day
Hung up not sure what to say
My feet never touching the ground
Disconnected another time
Can't hold on to what is mine
A part of the lost never found
Keeps me running
Keeps me running
I can't slow down
Keeps me running
Keeps me running
Spinning round and round
Keeps me running
Keeps me running
Unwound
Sun rise ends another day
Dog tired, hell to pay
Never enough, never satisfied
Here there and back again
These days never end
Like trying to hold back the tide
Keeps me running
Keeps me running
I can't slow down
Keeps me running
Keeps me running
Spinning round and round
Keeps me running
Keeps me running
Unwound
I can feel you here
As I disappear
Darling, close your eyes and dream away
Close my eyes I'm crying
Solo
Keeps me running
Keeps me running
I can't slow down
Keeps me running
Keeps me running
Spinning round and round
Keeps me running
Keeps me running
Unwound

Say

What would you say
If I took your hand
Pulled you along
Told you a plan
What would you do if that day was today
What could we see
Where would we go
Moving along just us and the road
Where would we be if we left here today
I'm don't know where we're going
I'm not sure where we've been
I think cracks have been showing
We can patch them again
I want to take you there with me
Won't you come along with me
What would you say if I said hello
We packed it all up ready to go
How would you feel if that day were today
I'm don't know where we're going
I'm not sure where we've been
I think cracks have been showing
We can patch them again
I want to take you there with me
Won't you come along with me
Solo
I'm don't know where we're going
I'm not sure where we've been
I think cracks have been showing
We can patch them again
I want to take you there with me
Won't you come along with me
I want to take you there with me
Won't you come along with me
What would you say
What would you say
What would you say

Can't Let Go
03:54
|
|||
|
Maybe tonight
I'll hear the voice I long to hear
Maybe tonight
A whisper in my ear
Sometimes I wait
I wonder if someone else waits too
Beside a phone
In some other distant room
Will someone please explain
(I can't let go)
What I just can't forget
(I can't let go)
The good times I remember
(I can't let go)
The things that I regret
I can't let go
Some other day I won't feel this way
Some other time I won't wish that you're still mine
Will someone please explain
(I can't let go)
What I just can't forget
(I can't let go)
The good times I remember
(I can't let go)
The things that I regret
I can't let go
I Don't believe that time can heal it all
So stuck in yesterday
Broken pieces on the ground
Are bound to blow away
Will someone please explain
(I can't let go)
What I just can't forget
(I can't let go)
The good times I remember
(I can't let go)
The things that I regret
I can't let go
Someday I'll see
That we weren't meant to be
But here and now
I'll dream you back somehow
