7.Barcelona

Written:Freddie Mercury/Mike Moran

Barcelona Barcelona
Barcelona Barcelona
Viva

I had this perfect dream
Un sueno me envolvio
This dream was me and you
Tal vez estas aqui
I want all the world to see
Un instinto me guiaba
A miracle sensation
My guide and inspiration
Now my dream is slowly coming true

The wind is a gentle breeze
El me hablo de ti
The bells are ringing out
El canto vuela
They're calling us together
Guiding us forever
Wish my dream would never go away

Barcelona - It was the first time that we met
Barcelona - How can I forget
The moment that you stepped into the room you took my breath
away
Barcelona - La musica vibros
Barcelona - Y ella nos unio
And if God willing we will meet again someday

Let the songs begin
Dejalo nacer
Let the music play
Ahhhhhhhh...
Make the voices sing
Nace un gran amor
Start the celebration
Van a mi
And cry
Grita
Come alive
Vive
And shake the foundations from the skies
Ah,Ah,Shaking all our lives

Barcelona - Such a beautiful horizon
Barcelona - Like a jewel in the sun
Por ti sere gaviota de tu bella mar
Barcelona - Suenan las campamas
Barcelona - Abre tus puertas al mundo
If God is willing
If God is willing
If God is willing
Friends until the end
Viva - Barcelona


8.Time

Lyrics:Dave Clark/John Christie
Music:Dave Clark/John Christie

Time waits for nobody

Time waits for nobody
We all must plan our hopes together
Or we'll have no more future at all
Time waits for nobody

We might as well be deaf and dumb and blind
I know that sounds unkind
But it seems to me we've not listened to
Or spoken about it at all
The fact that time is running out for us all

Time waits for nobody
Time waits for no-one
We've got to build this world together
Or we'll have no more future at all
Because time - it waits for nobody

You don't need me to tell you what's gone wrong (gone wrong gone
wrong)
You know what's going on
But it seems to me we've not cared enough
Or confided in each other at all (confided in each other at all)
It seems that we've all got our backs against the wall

(Time) Time waits for nobody
(Time) waits for no-one
We've got to trust in one another
Or there'll be no more future at all
(Time)

Yeah - Time waits for nobody
No no - Time don't wait for no-one
Let's learn to be friends with one another
Or there'll be no more future at all

Time (time) time (time) waits for nobody waits for nobody
Time time time time waits for nobody at all

Time waits for nobody - yeah
Time don't wait - waits for no-one
Let us free this world for ever
And build a brand new future for us all

Time waits for nobody nobody nobody
For no-one


9.Foolin' Around

Lyrics:Freddie Mercury
Music:Freddie Mercury

You're so beautiful you just lay it on me
Foxy lady you really are the greatest show in town
You want to play
You wanna eat your cake and have it your way
You got it easy and you don't give a damn
Foolin' around you just keep foolin' around with me

Walking down the street people watching closely
Such a tease you can turn on any man you want
You masquerade

You you you don't have any time for me
You just keep foolin' around with me

Fooling around - everywhere I go you're the only only only

Fooling around all you do is keep me hanging around

10.Mr. Bad Guy

Lyrics:Freddie Mercury
Music:Freddie Mercury

Let's go chasing rainbows in the sky
It's my invitation
Let's all take a trip on my ecstasy

I'm Mr. Bad Guy
Yes I'm everybody's Mr. Bad Guy
Can't you see I'm Mr. Mercury
Oh, spread your wings and fly away with me.

Your big daddy's got no place to stay
Bad communication
I feel like the president of the USA

Mr. Bad Guy
Yes I'm everybody's Mr. Bad Guy
Can't you see I'm Mr. Mercury
Oh, spread your wings and fly away with me.

I'm Mr. Bad Guy
They're all afraid of me
I can ruin people's lives
Mr. Bad Guy they're all afraid of me
It's the only way to be
That's my destiny
Mr. Bad Guy, Mr. Bad Guy, Bad Guy

It's the only way for me
It's my destiny

Mr. Bad Guy
Yes I'm everybody's Mr. Bad Guy
Can't you see this is my destiny
Oh, spread your wings and fly away with me.


11.There Must Be More To Live Than This

Lyrics:Freddie Mercury
Music:Freddie Mercury

There must be more to life than this
There must be more to life than this
How do we cope in a world without love
Mending all those broken hearts
And tending to those crying faces
There must be more to life than living
There must be more than meets the eye
Why should it be just a case of black or white
There must be more to life than this

Why is this world so full of hate
People dying everywhere
And we destroy what we create
People fighting for their human rights
But we just go on saying c'est la vie
So this is life

There must be more to life than killing
A better way for us to survive
What good is life, in the end we all must die
There must be more to life than this

There must be more to life than this
There must be more to life than this
I live and hope for a world filled with love
Then we can all just live in peace
There must be more to life, much more to life
There must be more to life, more to life than this.


12.Love Me Like There's No Tomorrow

Lyrics:Freddie Mercury
Music:Freddie Mercury

You had to kill the conversation
You always had the upper hand
Got caught in love and stepped in sinking sand
You had to go and ruin all our plans
Packed your bags and you're leaving home
Got a one-way ticket and you're all set to go
But we have one more day together, so

Love me like there's no tomorrow
Hold me in your arms, tell me you mean it
This is our last goodbye and very soon it will be over
But today just love me like there's no tomorrow

I guess we drift alone in separate ways
I don't have all that far to go
God knows I learnt to play the lonely man
I've never felt so low in all my life
We were born to be just losers
So I guess there's a limit on how far we go
But we only have one more day together so

Love me like there's no tomorrow
Hold me in your arms, tell me you mean it
This is our last goodbye and very soon it will be over
But today just love me like there's no tomorrow

Tomorrow god knows just where I'll be
Tomorrow who knows just what's in store for me
Anything can happen but we only have one more day together, yeah
Just one more day forever, so

Love me like there's no tomorrow
Hold me in your arms, tell me you mean it
This is our last goodbye and very soon it will be over
But today just love me like there's no tomorrow


13.In My Defence

Written:Dave Clark/David Soames/Jeff Daniels

In my defence what is there to say
All the mistakes we made must be faced today
It's not easy now knowing where to start
While the world we love tears itself apart

I'm just a singer with a song
How can I try to right the wrong
For just a singer with a melody
I'm caught in between
With a fading dream

In my defence what is there to say
We destroy the love - it's our way
We never listen enough never face the truth
Then like a passing song
Love is here and then it's gone

I'm just a singer with a song
How can I try to right the wrong
For just a singer with a melody
I'm caught in between
With a fading dream

I'm just a singer with a song
How can I try to right the wrong
I'm just a singer with a melody
I'm caught in between with a fading dream
Caught in between with a fading dream
Caught in between with a fading dream

Oh what on earth
Oh what on earth
How do I try
Do we live or die

Oh help me God
Please help me


14.Man Made Paradise

Lyrics:Freddie Mercury
Music:Freddie Mercury

I want to gaze into your eyes and see the fire in their glow
But it's the same old story
Want you to melt inside my arms like falling rain upon the snow
But you say no, you say no
Want you to help me thru deep waters when my ship is in a storm
Want you to give me all the power like a king on his throne
But you don't care, you don't care
History repeats itself, I seem to be all by myself again.

Come into my life, it's a manmade paradise
Come into my life, it's a manmade paradise
Come into my life, it's a manmade paradise
Come into my life, it's a manmade paradise, paradise

One day I'll look into your mind and understand which way to go
But it's the same old story
When you refuse me all the time I'm suicidal on my own
But you don't know, you don't know
I want to be beside you now, lie in the stand and kiss your brow
I want to fly beyond the moon and do the things we do for love
But you don't care, you don't care
History repeats itself, I seem to be all by myself again.

Come into my life, it's a manmade paradise
Come into my life, it's a manmade paradise
Come into my life, it's a manmade paradise
Come into my life, it's a manmade paradise, paradise

I want to be beside you now, lie in the stand and kiss your brow
I want to fly beyond the moon and do the things we do for love
But you say no, you say no
History repeats itself, I seem to be all by myself again.

16.Made In Heaven

Lyrics:Freddie Mercury
Music:Freddie Mercury

I'm taking my ride with destiny
Willing to pay my part
Living with painful memories
Loving with all my heart

Made in heaven, made in heaven
It was all meant to be, yeah
Made in heaven, made in heaven
That's what they say
Can't you see
That's what everybody says to me
Can't you see
Oh I know, I know, I know that it's true
Yes it's really meant to be
Deep in my heart

I'm having to learn to pay the price
They're turning me upside down
Waiting for possibilities
Don't see too many around

Made in heaven, made in heaven
It's for all to see
Made in heaven, made in heaven
That's what everybody says everybody says to me
It was really meant to be
Oh can't you see
Yeah, everybody, everybody says
Yes it was meant to be
Yeah, yeah

When stormy weather comes around
It was made in heaven
When sunny skies break through behind the clouds
I wish it could last forever, yeah
Wish it could last forever, forever

I'm playing my roll in history
Looking to find my goal
Taking all this misery
But giving it all my soul

Made in heaven, made in heaven
It was meant to be
Made in heaven, made in heaven
That's what everybody says everybody says
Wait and see, it was really meant to be
So plain to see
Yeah, everybody, everybody, everybody tells me so
Yes it was plain to see, yes it was meant to be
Written in the stars...
Written in the stars...


17.One Year Of Love

Lyrics:John Deacon
Music:John Deacon
Vocal:Freddie Mercury/Queen

Just one year of love
Is better than a lifetime alone
One sentimental moment in your arms
Is like a shooting star right through my heart
It's always a rainy day without you
I'm a prisoner of love inside you -
I'm falling apart all around you - yeah
My heart cries out to your heart
I'm lonely but you can save me
My hand reaches for to your hand
I'm cold but you light the fire in me
My lips search for your lips
I'm hungry for your touch
There's so much left unspoken
And all I can do is surrender
To the moment just surrender

And no one ever told me that love would hurt so much
Oooh yes it hurts
And pain is so close to pleasure
And all I can do is surrender to your love
Just surrender to your love
Just one year of love
Is better than a lifetime alone
One sentimental moment in your arms
Is like a shooting star right through my heart
It's always a rainy day without you
I'm a prisoner of love inside you
I'm falling apart all around you
And all I can do is surrender


18.Who Wants To Live Forever

Lyrics:Brian May
Music:Brian May
Vocal:Freddie Mercury/Queen

There's no time for us
There's no place for us
What is this thing that builds our dreams yet slips away
from us

Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever....?

There's no chance for us
It's all decided for us
This world has only one sweet moment set aside for us

Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever?

Who dares to love forever?
When love must die

But touch my tears with your lips
Touch my world with your fingertips
And we can have forever
And we can love forever
Forever is our today
Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever?
Forever is our today

Who waits forever anyway?
