:(In And Out Of

Robbie Williams :(In And Out Of Lyrics
1.Shame(feat. Gary Barlow)

Well there's three versions of this story mine, yours and then
the truth
And we can put it down to circumstance, our childhood, then our
youth
Out of some sentimental gain I wanted you to feel my pain,
but it came back return to sender
I read your mind and tried to call, my tears could fill the
Albert Hall,
is this the sound of sweet surrender?

What a shame we never listened
I told you through the television
And all that went away was the price we paid
People spend a lifetime this way
Oh what a shame.

So I got busy throwing everybody underneath the bus
And with your poster 30 foot high at the back of Toys-R-Us
I wrote a letter in my mind, but the words were so unkind,
about a man I can't remember
I don't recall the reasons why, I must have meant them at the
time,
is this the sound of sweet surrender?

What a shame we never listened
I told you through the television
And all that went away was the price we paid

People spend a lifetime this way
And that's how they stay
Oh what a shame.

Words come easy, when they're true
Words come easy, when they're true

So I got busy throwing everybody underneath the bus
And with your poster 30 foot high at the back of Toys-R-Us
Now we can put it down to circumstance, our childhood then our
youth.

What a shame we never listened
I told you through the television
And all that went away was the price we paid
People spend a lifetime this way
And that's how they stay
Oh what a shame.

People spend a lifetime this way
Oh what a shame
Such a shame, what a shame


2.Heart And I

I hope there's a golden age
I pray for my sanity
Where we don't have to answer to anyone 'bout anything

This is not like a brochure
Flying cars and sex machines
We are all so compliant
'cause eveything is what it seems
And it can't be the satellite
To tell you how loved you are
Or some kind of live device that holds you when you've gone too
far

And I don't feel myself again
I thought I'd be fixed by now
Walking through the horizon, I found myself back here somehow
Give me something to die for
Or design a quiet mind
Something to like mankind for
Cause we don't lie, my heart and I.

You've been bending so long now
You think it's standing up
And they line up behind you to build you up, buttercup
We can lose all meaning
Quicker than a credit card
And not everyone's healing, so try your best and don't love too
hard
Cause they can't build a satellite
To tell you what's in your heart
Or some kind of live device that holds you when you've gone too
far

And I don't feel myself again
I thought I'd be fixed by now
Walking through the horizon, I found myself back here somehow
Give me something to die for
Or design a quiet mind
Something to like mankind for
Cause we don't lie, my heart and I.

Will I ever feel the waking
Naked as a lullaby
Don't ask me to explain again
I can't lie to my heart and I

And I don't feel myself again
I thought I'd be fixed by now
Walking through the horizon, I found myself back here somehow
Give me something to die for
Or design a quiet mind
Something to like mankind for
Cause we don't lie, my heart and I.

My heart and I
My heart and I

I've been feeling so lonely
Feeling so low
So low I almost let go.


3.Morning Sun

How do you rate the morning sun?

After a long and sleepless night,
How many stars would you give to the moon?
Do you see those stars from where you are?
Shine on the lost and loneliest,
The ones who can't get over it.
And you always wanted more than life,
And now you don't have the appetite

Send a message to the troubadour,
The world don't love you anymore,
Tell me how do you rate the morning sun?

Stuck inside the rainbow years,
And you could happen to me,
'cause I've been close to where you are.
I drove to places you have seen,
It all seems so familiar,
Like they've been sent to kill ya.

It doesn't take an astronaut
To float into space is just a thought
The morning brings the mystery,
The evening makes it history,
Tell me how do you rate the morning sun?

And the village drunk,
Sadly passed away,
It was a shame,
I never knew his name.
I wonder if he sat there every morning
And watched the sun rise.

How do you rate the morning sun?
It was just too heavy for me
And all I wanted was the world.
And you are the starlet in the sun,
Don't go wasting your time,
'cause there is no finish line.

And you don't see anything,
Not even love, not anything.
The night could take the man from you,
A sense of wonder overdue.

The morning brings the mystery,
The evening makes it history,
Who am I to rate the morning sun?


4.You Know Me

If a man can be his own fantasy
Then to only breed in captivity
Is pointless
I've been doing what I like when I like how I like it's joyless
Only you know me

What a waste this peace
Baby steps and two more sleeps
Till I get to say sorry
I get hysterical, historicalS; of love it's just chemicalS
Give us something to stop me
Only you know me

Since you went away, my heart breaks everyday
And you don't know COUSE you're not there
You simply found the words to make ALL MODERN FEELINGS FADE AWAY
Only you know me

I'm DOING fine
the sun often shines
What are you thinking?
I DONE BRUISED UP MY MIND
With this thunderbird wine
Baby, I'm drinking
Only you know me

Since you went away, my heart breaks everyday
You don't know cos you're not there
You simply found the words to make ALL MODERN FEELINGS FADE AWAY
Only you know me
Only you know me

Since you went away, my heart breaks everyday
You don't know cos you're not there
You simply found the words to make ALL MODERN FEELINGS FADE AWAY
Only you know me
Only you know me

All the way
Waiting for you, all my life


5.Bodies

God gave me the sunshine,
Then showed me my lifeline
I was told it was all mine,
Then I got laid on a ley line
What a day, what a day,
And your Jesus really died for me
Then Jesus really tried for me

UK and entropy,
I feel like its ****in' me
Wanna feed off the energy,
Love living like a deity
What a day, one day,
And your Jesus really died for me
I guess Jesus really tried for me

Bodies in the Bodhi tree,
Bodies making chemistry
Bodies on my family,
Bodies in the way of me
Bodies in the cemetery,
And that's the way it's gonna be

All we've ever wanted
Is to look good naked
Hope that someone can take it
God save me rejection
From my reflection,
I want perfection

Praying for the rapture,
Cause it's stranger getting stranger
And everything's contagious
It's the modern middle ages
All day every day
And if Jesus really died for me
Then Jesus really tried for me

Bodies in the Bodhi tree,
Bodies making chemistry
Bodies on my family,
Bodies in the way of me
Bodies in the cemetery,
And that's the way it's gonna be

All we've ever wanted
Is to look good naked
Hope that someone can take it
God save me rejection
From my reflection,
I want perfection

Bodies in the Bodhi tree,
Bodies making chemistry
Bodies on my family,
Bodies in the way of me
Bodies in the cemetery,
Bodies in the bodhi tree,
Bodies making chemistry
Bodies on my family,
Bodies in the way of me
Bodies in the cemetery,
And that's the way it's gonna be

All we've ever wanted
Is to look good naked
Hope that someone can take it
So God save me rejection
From my reflection,
I want perfection

Jesus didn't die for you, what do you want?
(I want perfection)
Jesus didn't die for you, what are you on?
Oh Lord
(Jesus really died for you) Ohh
(Jesus really died for you)
(Jesus really died for you) Ohh


6.She's Madonna(Radio Edit)(feat. Pet Shop Boys)

Oh, Madonna, Madonna

I don't miss you
Just who
You used to be
And you don't ring true
So please
Stop calling me
Your 'I love you''s
Are ten a penny
You're dropping clues
Like you've got any
You got to choose
There's been so many ohhhh

I love you baby
But face it she's Madonna
No man on earth
Could say that he don't want her
This look of love
Says I'm leaving
You're frozen now
I've done the freezing
I'm walking out
Madonna's calling me

She's got to be
Obscene to be believed
That's her routine
Not what she means to me
I found myself
By circumstance
Across a room
Where people dance
And quite by chance
She' danced right next me

I love you baby
But face it she's Madonna
No man on earth
Would say that he don't want her
It's me not you
I've got to move on
You're younger too
But she's got her groove on
I'm sorry love
Madonna's calling me

Oh, Madonna, Madonna

I want to tell you a secret

We're having drinks
With Kate and Stella
Gwyneth's here
She's brought her fella
But all I wanna do
Is take Madonna home

I love you baby
But face it she's Madonna
No man on earth
Would say that he don't want her
It's me not you
I've got to move on
You're younger too
But she's got her groove on
I'm sorry love
Madonna's calling me


7.Lovelight

Did it again
Did it again
Did it again
Did it again

What am I supposed to do?
To keep me from going under
Now your making holes in my heart
And yes it's starting to show

I've been holding back
And is it any wonder
Since you walked right into my life
And interrupted the flow

And I wanna know
Baby when your with me
Who do you think your fooling
Making me feel so sure

And I don't know just how long I can stick around
Girl I need more
And it aint just physical
But I don't know what I can do
Cos I aint love this time around

Keep turning down the lovelight
Did it again
Keep turning down the lovelight

Who do you think your fooling
Making me feel so sure
Turning the lovelight down again

Turning the lovelight down again


8.Rudebox(Clean Radio Edit)

Do the rudebox, shake your rudebox
Do the rudebox, shake your...

OK, then, back to basics
Grab your shell toes and your fat laces
A little hand clap for some funk faces
And make your body move in the following places
Goes up your back and then down your spine
And when it hits your head...

If you rudebox me, I'll rudebox your whole crew
Cos its what I do aint that right boo true

OK, give it what you got and dial 808 for the bass to drop

9.Sin Sin Sin(Single Version)

Don't let your eyes tell the brain
You should feel ashamed
Everyone needs it baby
And I feel the same
Didn't quite catch your name
Hush hush hush don't say a thing
Let's see what the night will bring
It might be everything

Oh it hurts when you're too blind to see
Please don't read my mind I tell the truth to me

Sin sin sin look where we've been
And where we are tonight
Hate the sin not the sinner
I'm just after a glimmer of love
And life deep inside

Hush hush hush
To speak is a sin
And neither of us need rescuing
Just relax
It's what Jesus would do
We're made in his image baby
Let's ride this thing through

Oh it hurts when you're too blind to see
What about us? Well it was just for me

Sin sin sin look where we've been
And where we are tonight
Hate the sin not the sinner
I'm just after a glimmer of love
And light deep inside

I won't sing of amore
It don't sound sincere
Love is a cliche
But it fits not me, I'll disappear

Sin sin sin look where we've been
And where we are tonight
Hate the sin not the sinner
I'm just after a glimmer of love
And light deep inside
Deep inside

It's love great sex joy
I love you, you love my hate
And it it feels inside my
Feels inside
Feels inside


10.Advertising Space

There's no earthly way of knowing
What was in your heart
When it stopped going
The whole world shook
A storm was blowing through you

Waiting for God to stop this
And up to your neck in darkness
Everyone around you was corrupted
Saying something

There's no dignity in death
To sell the world your last breath
We're still fighting over
Everything you left over

I saw you standing at the gates
When Marlon Brando passed away
You had that look upon your face
Advertising space

No one learned from your mistakes
We let our profits go to waste
All that's left in any case
Is advertising space

Through your eyes the world was burning
Please be gentle I'm still learning
You seemed to say as you kept turning up

They poisoned you with compromise
At what point did you realize
Everybody loves your life but you

A special agent for the man
Through Watergate and Vietnam
No one really gave a damn
Did you think the CIA did

I saw you standing at the gates
When Marlon Brando passed away
You had that look upon your face
Advertising space

No one learned from your mistake
We let our prophets go to waste
All that's left in any case
Is advertising space

I saw you standing at the gates
When Marlon Brando passed away
You had that look upon your face
Advertising space

No one learned from your mistakes
We let our profits go to waste
All that's left in any case
Is advertising space

I've seen your daughter
Man, she's cute
I was scared but I wanted to
Boy, she looks a lot like you


11.Make Me Pure(Edit)

So I sing a song
To reel 'em in
It's a song I've sung before and
a song I'm gonna sing again
I mean every word and I don't mean
a single one of them
Oh Lord make me pure but not yet

Tell a joke
Tell it twice
If no one else is laughing then why am I?
I split my sides both times and laugh until I cry
Oh Lord, please, make me pure but not yet

I don't have to try
I just dial it in
I've never found a job that for me
was worth bothering
I've got a ton of selfish genes
and lazy bones beneath this skin
Oh Lord, make me pure but not yet

Smoking kills
Sex sells
I've got one hand in my pocket but the
other one looks cool as hell
I know I'm going to die so my revenge
is living well
Oh Lord, make me pure but not yet

I stopped praying so I hope this song will do
I wrote it all for you
I'm not perfect, but you don't mind that,
do you?
I know you're there to pull me through
Aren't you?

So I look for love
I like the search
And I've been standing for election all across
the known universe
That every President gets the country she deserves
Oh Lord, make me pure but not yet

And I've been seeing
Somebody's wife
She said she'd leave him for me,
and I said that wasn't wise
You can't lie to a liar, because of all the lies
Oh Lord, please, make me pure but not yet


12.Tripping(Radio Edit)

First they ignore you
Then laugh at you and hate you
Then they fight you - then you win
When the truth dies
Very bad things happen
They're being heartless again

I know it's coming
There's going to be violence
I've taken as much
As I'm willing to take
Why do you think
We should suffer in silence
When a heart is broken
There's nothing to break

(Chorus backing vocals:
Want you to love me
Want you to be
The heavens above me
Eternally)

You've been mixing
With some very heavy faces
The boys have done a bit of bird
They don't kill their own
And they all love their mothers
But you're out of you depth son
Have a word

I know it's coming
There's going to be violence
I've taken as much
As I'm willing to take
Why do you think
We should suffer in silence?
The heart is broken
There's nothing to break

All is wonderful in past lives
Dreaming of the sun she warms
You should see me in the afterlife
Picking up the sons of dust

When you think we're lost
We're exploring
What do you think it's worthless
I'm adoring
You don't want the truth
Truth is boring
I got this fever need to
Leave the house leave the car
Leave the bad men where they are
Leave a few shells in my gun
Stop me staring at the sun

I know it's coming
There's gonna be violence
I've taken as much
As I'm willing to take
Why do you think
We should suffer in silence?
My heart is broken
There's nothing to break


13.Misunderstood

Tryin' to be misunderstood
But it doesn't do me any good
Love the way they smile at me
Held that face for eternity
Now let them all fly off

When it comes down
It all comes down
You will not be found

When it's over
It's all over
Even if i make a sound

I'll be misunderstood
By the beautiful and good in this city
None of it was planned
Take me by the hand
Just don't try and understand

Try to be misunderstood
Just a product of my childhood
And still I find myself outside
You cant say I havent tried
Perhaps I tried too hard

No excuses
I won't apoligise
Or justify your lies
Come find me
Tell them to me
Look me in the eyes

I'll be misunderstood
By the beautiful and good in this city
None of this was planned
Take me by the hand
Just don't try and understand

Can't forgive sorry to say
You don't know your guilty anyway
Isn't it funny how we don't speak
The language of love


14.Radio

He's chosen my attic
I feel it in the static
He lives in my basement
And I can hardly face it
My performance is easy
I am the god of romance
And in my confusion
I have the right to reign

He's stolen my Oscars
He trades on my jokes
He makes all my engines go oh oh oh
He put an 'e' in the arsenal
A comb in my 'fro
Devine retribution
And away we will go
Hey hey hey hey

Something's happening I can feel it
Moving out of time you'll hear it
Falling in the way you fear it
Jumping thumping shout out something
Jumping thumping shout out something

Listen to the radio
And you will hear the songs you know
Make it effervescent here
And you might have a job my dear

I'm searching for something
Beyond my understanding
Looking for meaning
Where nothing is demanding
There are no surprises
Where nothing is expected
If you offer nothing
Then everyone accepts

He's stolen my Oscars
He trades on my jokes
He makes all my engines go oh oh oh
He put an 'e' in the arsenal
A comb in my 'fro
Devine retribution
And away we will go
Hey hey hey hey

Something's happening I can feel it
Moving out of time you'll hear it
Falling in the way you fear it
Jumping thumping shout out something
Jumping thumping shout out something

Listen to the radio
And you will hear the songs you know
Make it effervescent here
And you might have a job my dear, my dear
Ouch
Ouch
Ouch
Radio
Ouch ouch
Ouch
Ouch
Radio

Something's happening I can feel it
Moving out of time you'll hear it
Falling in the way you fear it
Jumping thumping shout out something

Something's happening I can feel it
Moving out of time you'll hear it
Falling in the way you fear it
Jumping thumping shout out something

Listen to the Radio


15.Sexed Up(Radio Edit)

Loose lips sunk ships
I'm getting to grips with what you said
No it's not in my head
I can't awaken the dead day after day
Why don't we talk about it?
Why do you always doubt that there can be a better way?
It doesn't make me wanna stay

Why don't we break up?
There's nothing left to say
I've got my eyes shut
Praying they won't stray
And we're not sexed up
That's what makes the difference today
I hope you blow away

You say we're fatally flawed
Well I'm easily bored, is that ok?
Write me off your list
Make this the last kiss, I'll walk away
Why don't we talk about it?
I'm only here don't shout it
Given time we'll forget
Let's pretend we never met

Why don't we break up?
There's nothing left to say
I've got my eyes shut
Praying they won't stray
And when I'm sexed up
That's what makes the difference today
I hope you blow away

Screw you, I didn't like your taste
Anyway, I chose you and that's all gone to waste
It's Saturday, I'll go out
And find another you

Why don't we break up?
There's nothing left to say
I've got my eyes shut
Praying they won't stray
And when I'm sexed up
That's what makes the difference today
I hope you blow away
I hope you blow away
I hope you blow away
I hope you blow away
Blow away
Away
Just blow away


16.Something Beautiful(Radio Edit)

You can't manufacture a miracle
The silence was pitiful - that day
And love is getting too cynical
Passion's just physical - these days

You analyse everyone you meet
But get no sign - the loving kind
Every night you admit defeat
And cry yourself blind

If you can't wake up in the morning
'Cause your bed lies vacant at night
If you're lost, hurt, tired or lonely
Can't control it - try as you might

May you find that love that won't leave you
May you find it by the end of the day
You won't be lost, hurt, tired and lonely
Something beautiful will come your way

The DJ said on the radio
Life should be stereo - each day
And the past that cast the unsuitable
Instead of some kind of beautiful
You just couldn't wait

All your friends think you're satisfied
But they can't see your soul, no, no, no
Forgot the time feeling petrified
When they lived alone

If you can't wake up in the morning
'Cause your bed lies vacant at night
If you're lost, hurt, tired or lonely
Can't control it - try as you might

May you find that love that won't leave you
May you find it by the end of the day
You won't be lost, hurt, tired and lonely
Something beautiful will come your way

(It'll come your way)
(It'll come your way) Some kind of beautiful
(It'll come your way) Some kind of beautiful
(It'll come your way) Some kind of beautiful
(It'll come your way)

All your friends think you're satisfied
But they can't see your soul, no, no, no
Forgot the time feeling petrified
When they lived alone

If you can't wake up in the morning
'Cause your bed lies vacant at night
If you're lost, hurt, tired or lonely
Can't control it - try as you might

May you find that love that won't leave you
May you find it by the end of the day
You won't be lost, hurt, tired and lonely
Something beautiful will come your way

You won't be lost, hurt, tired and lonely
Something beautiful will come your way


17.Come Undone(UK Radio Edit)

So unimpressed but so in awe
Such a saint but such a whore
So self aware so full of shit
So indecisive so adamant

I'm contemplating thinking about thinking
It's so overrated just get another drink in

Watch me come undone
They're selling razor blades and mirrors in the street
I pray that when I'm coming down you'll be asleep
If I ever hurt you your revenge will be so sweet
Because I'm scum
And I'm your son
I come undone
I come undone

So rock and roll so corporate suit
So damn ugly, so damn cute
So well trained, so animal
So need your love, so fuck you all

I'm not scared of dying I just don't want to
If I stop lying I'd just disappoint you

I come undone
They're selling razor blades and mirrors in the street
I pray that when I'm coming down you'll be asleep
If I ever hurt you your revenge will be so sweet
Because I'm scum
And I'm your son
I've come undone

So write another ballad
Mix it on a Wednesday
Sell it on a Thursday
Buy a yacht by Saturday
It's a love song
A love song

Do another interview
Sing a bunch of lies
Tell about celebrities that I despise
And sing love songs
We sing love songs
So sincere
So sincere

(come undone)
They're selling razor blades and mirrors in the street
(come undone)
I pray that when I'm coming down you'll be asleep
(come undone)
The young pretend you're in the clouds above the sea
I come undone, I am scum, love your son
You've gotta love your son
You've gotta love your son
Love your son, I am scum
I am scum
I am scum
I am scum


18.Feel(Radio Edit)

Come and hold my hand
I wanna contact the living
Not sure I understand
This role I've been given

I sit and talk to God
And he just laughs at my plans
My head speaks a language
I don't understand

I just want to feel real love
Feel the home that I live in
'Cause I got too much life
Running through my veins
Going to waste

I don't want to die
But I ain't keen on living either
Before I fall in love
I'm preparing to leave her
I scare myself to death
That's why I keep on running
Before I've arrived
I can see myself coming

I just want to feel real love
Feel the home that I live in
'Cause I got too much life
Running through my veins
Going to waste
And I need to feel real love
And a life ever after
I cannot give it up

I just want to feel real love
Feel the home that I live in
I got too much love
Running through my veins
To go to waste

I just wanna feel real love
In a life ever after
There's a hole in my soul
You can see it in my face
It's a real big place

Come and hold my hand
I want to contact the living
Not sure I understand
This role I've been given
Not sure I understand
Not sure I understand
Not sure I understand
Not sure I understand


19.Mr. Bojangles

I knew a man Bojangles
And he'll dance for you
In worn out shoes
With silver hair and ragged shirt, baggy pants
He would do the old soft shoe
He would jump so high
Jump so high
Then he'd lightly, touch down

Told me of the time
He worked with, with minstrel shows
Travelling throughout the south
Spoke with tears for fifteen years
How his, how his dog and he
They would travel about
But his dog up and died
Bought up and died
And after twenty years he still grieves

He said
I dance now and
Every chance in honky tonks
for my drinks and tips
but most the time I, I spend behind these county bars
You see son I, I drinks a bit
Then he shook his head
Oh Lord, when he shook his head
I could swear I heard somebody say please, please

There's mister Bojangles
Call him mister Bojangles
Mister Bojangles come back and dance and dance
and dance please dance

Mister Bojangles
Mister Bojangles
Mister Bojangles come back and dance and dance
and dance please dance

Come back and dance mister Bojangles


20.I Will Talk And Hollywood Will Listen

I wouldn't be so alone
if they knew my name in every home
Kevin Spacey would call on the phone
But I'd be too busy
Come back to the old five and dime
Cameron Diaz give me a sign
I'd make you smile all the time
and your conversation would compliment mine

I will talk and Hollywood will listen
See them bow at my every word
Mr Spielberg look just what you're missing
Doesn't that seem a little absurd
Bow at my every word

Buy up the rights to my book
I live on a ranch from what the box office took
I'll go and visit the set
They'll call me their saviour
All of the peoples will scorn celebrity
Lives on the moon
But I'll be back home in June
To promote the sequel

I will talk and Hollywood will listen
See them bow at my every word
Mr. Spielberg look just what you're missing
Doesn't that seem a little absurd
Bow at my every word


21.Somethin' Stupid(feat. Nicole Kidman)

I know I stand in line
until you think you have the time
to spend an evening with me

And if we go some place to dance
I know that there's a chance
you won't be leaving with me

And afterwards we drop into a quiet little place
and have a drink or two
And then I go and spoil it all
by saying something stupid
like: 'I love you'

I can see it in your eyes
you still despise the same old lines
you heard the night before

And though it's just a line to you
for me it's true
and never seemed so right before

I practice everyday
to find some clever lines to say
to make the meaning come true

But then I think I'll wait
until the evening gets late
and I'm alone with you

The time is right
your perfume fills my head
the stars get red
and oh, the night's so blue

And then I go and spoil it all
by saying something stupid
like: 'I love you'

The time is right
your perfume fills my head
the stars get red
and oh, the night's so blue

And then I go and spoil it all
by saying something stupid
like: 'I love you'

'I love you'
'I love you'


22.The Road To Mandalay(Radio Edit)

Save me from drowning in the sea
Beat me up on the beach

What a lovely holiday
There's nothing funny left to say

This sombre song would drain the sun
But it won't shine until it's sung

No water running in the stream
The saddest place we've ever seen

Everything I touched was golden
Everything I loved got broken
On the road to Mandalay
Every mistake I've ever made
Has been rehashed and then replayed
As I got lost along the way

There's nothing left for you to give
The truth is all that you're left with
Twenty paces then at dawn
We will die and be reborn

I like to sleep beneath the trees
Have the universe at one with me
Look down the barrel of a gun
And feel the Moon replace the Sun

Everything we've ever stolen
Has been lost returned or broken
No more dragons left to slay
Every mistake I've ever made
Has been rehashed and then replayed
As I got lost along the way

Save me from drowning in the sea
Beat me up on the beach
What a lovely holiday
There's nothing funny left to say


23.Eternity(Radio Edit)

Close your eyes so you don't feel them
They don't need to see you cry
I can't promise I will heal you
But if you want to I will try
To sing this summer serenade
The past is done we've been betrayed
It's true
Someone said the truth will out
I believe without a doubt
In you

You were there for summer dreaming
And you gave me what I need
And I hope you'll find your freedom
For eternity, for eternity

Yesterday when we were walking
You talked about your ma and dad
What they did that made you happy
What they did that made you sad
We sat and watched the sun go down
Then picked a star before we lost
The moon
Youth is wasted on the young
Before you know it's come and gone
Too soon

You were there for summer dreaming
And you gave me what I need
And I hope you'll find your freedom
For eternity, for eternity
For eternity

To sing this summer serenade
The past is done we've been betrayed
It's true
Youth is wasted on the young
Before you know it's come and gone
Too soon

You were there for summer dreaming
And you are a friend indeed
And I hope you'll find your freedom
For eternity
You were there for summer dreaming
And you are a friend indeed
And I know you'll find your freedom
Eventually
For eternity, for eternity


24.Let Love Be Your Energy(Edit)

Out of a million seeds
Only the strongest one breathes
You made a miracle mother
I'll make a man out of me

Daddy where's the sun gone from the sky?
What did we do wrong, why did it die?
And all the grown ups say 'sorry kids we got no reply'

If you're willing to change the world
Let love be your energy
I've got more than I need
When your love shines down on me

Every tear that you cry
Will be replaced when you die
Why don't you love your brother?
Are you out of your mind?

Daddy where's the sun gone from the sky?
What did we do wrong, why did it die?
And if you've got no love for me then I'll say goodbye

If you're willing to change the world
Let love be your energy
I've got more than I need
When your love shines down on me

If you're willing to change the world
Let love be your energy
I can't contain how I feel
When your love shines down on me

Well if you want it come and make a stance
So when it's in your hands
People show me love
Well if you want it come and make a stance
So when it's in your hands
People show me love

If you're willing to change the world
Let love be your energy
I got more than I need
When your love shines down on me

If you're willing to change the world
Let love be your energy
I can't contain how I feel
When your love shines down on me


25.Supreme

Oh, it seemed forever stopped today
All the lonely hearts in London
Caught a plane and flew away
And all the best women are married
All the handsome men are gay

Is there a tumour in your humour,
Are there bags under your eyes?
Do you leave dents where you sit,
Are you getting on a bit?
Will you survive

This new century keeps bringing you down
All the places you have been
Trying to find a love supreme

Another partner in your life to
Abuse and to adore?
Is it lovey dovey stuff,
Do you need a bit of rough?
Get on your knees

'Cause you can't avoid the sentiment
That echoes in your ear
Saying love will stop the pain
Saying love will kill the fear
Do you believe
You must believe

This new century keeps bringing you down
All the places you have been
Trying to find a love supreme
A love supreme

Sit back and watch the royalties stack up
I know this girl she likes to switch teams
And I'm a fiend, but I'm living for a love supreme

When there's no love in town
This new century keeps bringing you down
All the places you have been
Trying to find a love supreme
A love supreme

Come and live a love supreme
Don't let it get you down
Everybody lives for love

Don't let it get you down
Everybody lives for love

30.Strong

My breath smells of a thousand fags
And when I'm drunk I dance like me Dad
I've started to dress a bit like him

Early morning when I wake up
I look like Kiss but without the make up
And that's a good line to take it to
The bridge

And you know and you know
'Cos my life's a mess
And I'm trying to grow so before
I'm old I'll confess

You think that I'm strong you're wrong
You're wrong
I'll sing my song my song my song

My bed's full of takeaways and fantasies
Of easy lays
The pause button's broke on my video

And is this real 'cos I feel fake
Oprah Winfrey Rikki Lake
Teach me things I don't need to know

And you know and you know
'Cos my life's a mess
And it's starting to show so before
I'm old I'll confess

You think that I'm strong you're wrong
You're wrong
I'll sing my song my song my song

If I did it all again I'd be a nun
The rain was never cold when I was young
I'm still young we're still young
Life's too short to be afraid
Step inside the sun

And you know and you know
'Cos my life's a mess
And I'm trying to grow

You think that I'm strong you're wrong
You're wrong
I'll sing my song my song my song

You think that I'm strong you're wrong

31.No Regrets

Tell me a story
Where we all change
And we'd live our lives together
And not enstranged

I didn't lose my mind
It was mine to give away
Couldn't stay to watch me cry
You didn't have the time
So I softly slip away

No regrets they don't work
No regrets now they only hurt
Sing me a love song
Drop me a line
Suppose it's just a point of view
But they tell me I'm doing fine

I know from the outside
We looked good for each other
Felt things were going wrong
When you didn't like my mother

I don't want to hate but that's
All you've left me with
A bitter aftertaste and a fantasy of
How we all could live

No regrets they don't work
No regrets now they only hurt
(We've been told you stay up late)
I know they're still talking
(You're far too short to carry weight)
The demons in your head
(Return the videos they're late)
If I could just stop hating you
(Goodbye)
I'd feel sorry for us instead

Remember the photographs, insane
The ones where we all laugh, so lame
We were having the time of our lives
Well thank you it was a real blast

No regrets they don't work
No regrets now they only hurt
Write me a love song
Drop me a line
Suppose it's just a point of view
But they tell me I'm doing fine

Everything I wanted to be every
Time I walked away
Every time I wanted to be every
Time I walked away
Every time you told me to leave
I just wanted to stay
Every time you looked at me and
Every time you smiled
I felt so vacant you treat me like a child
I loved the way we used to laugh
I loved the way we used to smile
Often I sit down and think of you
For a while
Then it passes me by and I think of
Someone else instead
I guess the love we once had is
Officially dead


32.Millennium(Radio Edit)

We've got stars directing our fate
And we're praying it's not too late
Millennium

Some say that we are pawns

Relate to

34.Angels

I sit and wait
Does an angel contemplate my fate
And do they know
The places where we go
When we're grey and old
'Cos I've been told
That salvation lets their wings unfold

So when I'm lying in my bed
Thoughts running through my head
And I feel that love is dead
I'm loving angels instead

And through it all she offers me protection
A lot of love and affection
Whether I'm right or wrong
And down the waterfall
Wherever it may take me
I know that life won't break me
When I come to call she won't forsake me
I'm loving angels instead

When I'm feeling weak
And my pain walks down a one way street
I look above
And I know I'll always be blessed with love

And as the feeling grows
She breathes flesh to my bones
And when love is dead
I'm loving angels instead

And through it all she offers me protection
A lot of love and affection
Whether I'm right or wrong
And down the waterfall
Wherever it may take me
I know that life won't break me
When I come to call she won't forsake me
I'm loving angels instead

And through it all she offers me protection
A lot of love and affection
Whether I'm right or wrong
And down the waterfall
Wherever it may take me
I know that life won't break me
When I come to call she won't forsake me
I'm loving angels instead


35.South Of The Border

I know a freaky young lady
Name of Cocaine Katie
She makes my temperature freeze
She's got a blood red powder
When she gives a shout
She'll bring you to your knees

Well we were being clever
Playing God games forever
She said she only meant to please
But I'm someone's brother
Got a father and a mother
You know I'm going to have to leave

South of the Border
I think you oughta
South of the Border
I think you oughta

'Cos you know you're gonna have to leave
To a place where you can breathe
And you know there's no reprieve

They'll be tears on leaving
But there won't be no grieving
'Cos a city soon forgets
To me it's magic
To the landlord it's tragic
He's got another room to let

There'll be the same old faces
In the same old places
Where my youth was well misspent
But I tow the line
And move the time
To a town called 'No Regrets'

South of the Border
I think you oughta
South of the Border
I think you oughta

'Cos you know you're gonna have to leave
To a place where you can breathe
And you know there's no reprieve

'Cos you know you're gonna have to leave
To a place where you can breathe
And you know there's no reprieve


36.Lazy Days

Lazy days calling to you
Come out to play
The future lies with you
Now you can be sure love is the cure
What we're searching for
Is to have a jolly good time

Crazy days but you'll get me through
And here I'll stay holdin' on to you
Now you can be sure
Our thoughts unpure
Will unlock the door
And we will have a jolly good time

It can happen in any season
We don't need any reason
To sit around and wait
The world can change in a second so
I find the sunshine beckons me
To open up the gate
And dream and dream

Lazy days don't let them get you down
Wear your smile
I don't want to see you frown
Don't let them get you down

It can happen in any season
We don't need any reason
To sit around and wait
The world can change in a second so
I find the sunshine beckons me
To open up the gate
And dream and dream

Then we will have - a jolly good time

Her heart's beating faster
So I'll ask her to leave
These are strange days
We're livin' in today
Am I straight or gay

Before I die

The Pope gets high

Live for today

But tonight I'm gonna
Live for today

Old before I die
Old before
Old before I die
Old before I die

It's the one good thing that I've got
I won't let you down
So please don't give me up
Because I would really really love to stick around, stick around

Heaven knows I was such a young boy
I didn't know what I wanted to be
I was every little hungry schoolgirl's pride and joy
And I guess it was enough for me
To win the race a prettier face
Brand new clothes and a big fat place
On your rock and roll TV
But today the way I play the game has got to change
And now I'm gonna get me so happy

I think there's something you should know
I think it's time I told you so
There's something deep inside of me
There's someone else I've got to be
Take back your picture in a frame
Take back your singing in the rain
I just hope you'll understand
Somehow the clothes do not make the man
All we have to do now
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see
Is that I don't belong to you
And you don't belong to me yeah yeah

(Freedom) I won't let you down
(Freedom) I will not give you up
(Freedom) You've gotta have some faith in my sound
(You've gotta give for what you take)
It's the one good thing that I've got
(Freedom) I won't let you down
(Freedom) So please don't give me up
(Freedom) Because I would really really love to stick around,
stick around
(You've gotta give for what you take)

Heaven knows we sure had some fun boy
What a kick just my buddies and me
(What a kick just my buddies and me)
We won the race
Got out of the place
I went back home got a brand new face
For the boys on MTV(boys on MTV)
But today the way I play the game has got to change
And now I'm gonna get myself happy

I think there's something you should know
I think it's time I stopped the show
There's something deep inside of me
There's someone I forgot to be
Take back your picture in a frame
Don't think that I'll be back again
I just hope you'll understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
All we have to do now
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see
Is that I don't belong to you
And you don't belong to me yeah yeah

(Freedom) I won't let you down
(Freedom) I will not give you up
(Freedom) You've gotta have some faith in my sound
(You've gotta give for what you take)
It's the one good thing that I've got
(Freedom) I won't let you down
(Freedom) So please don't give me up
(Freedom) Because I would really really love to stick around,
stick around
(You've gotta give for what you take)

Girl, come on over here
Let me hold you for a little while
And remember I'll always love you
Forever
Everything changes but you

We've said goodbye, the taxi cab is waiting
Now don't you cry, just one more kiss
Before I have to go
Hey girl I know the situation changed
And so much is new but something in my life
Remains the same cos

Everything changes but you
We're a thousand miles apart
But you know I love you
Everything changes but you
You know everyhting single day
I'll be thinking about you

The rumors true, you know that there've been others
What can I do, I tell you baby they don't mean a thing
Now girl don't go and throw our love away
I'll be home soon back in your arms to hear you say that

Eveything changes but you
We're a thousand miles apart
But you know I love you
Everything changes but you
You know everyhting single day
I'll be thinking about you

Everything changes but you
We're a thousand miles apart
But I still love you
Everything changes but you
I'll spend everyhting single day
Thinking about you

Though everything changes around us
(Baby don't U cry)
We will be the same as before more

Everything changes but you
We're a thousand miles apart
And I still miss you baby
Everything changes but you
You know everyhting single day
I'll be thinking about you

Everything changes but you
I'll be thinking about you,
Thinking about you
Everything changes but you
Cos you know I love you

Everything changes but you

Thinking about you
