Because of You

The Kings Because of You Lyrics
1.Because of You

Everybody listen to me

I've had enough doom and gloom

Having fun is fundamental

Find a girl and the fun will resume

Heard the story, the one about the broken heart?

Gets a little tired right around the hurting part

The world is full of similar stories

I've seen them all and many more

But things changed, its all Because of You

Everything is new everything is fine

This morning you called me

Woke me up as I was dreaming of you

Had a lot of dreams lately

Not too many of them came true

Heard the story, the one about the happy man?

Wants to live his life according to his happy plan

The world is full of similar dreamers

I never thought that I could be

But things changed, its all Because of You

Everything is new, everything is fine

There can be no point in looking back

What could be the possible point in that

Now that I am yours, now that you are mine

Inside my mind I try to find some kind of doubt

It isn't there and I can't figure it out

Don't you know that things changed

Its all Because of You

Everything is new, everything is fine

There can be no point in looking back

What could be the possible point in that

Now that I am yours now that you are mine

Now that I am yours now that you are mine

You know it changed it really changed

You know it changed its all Because of You

You know it changed it really changed

And when it changed it really changed

You know it changed its all Because of You


2.A Protest Song

In the air I get to smoke a cigarette

I get to walking around the town

On my way to nowhere special

I got nothing to do today

Across the street a guy gets out an old guitar

Further along a girl goes by and I think

You gotta love this city

Look around there's girls all over

Ain't nothing like this back home

A car goes by playing 'A Protest Song'

The guy with the guitar starts to sing along

'Nothing really changes its here and then its gone'

Words in 'A Protest Song'

But what's it really saying about what's going on?

In the bar you got the tv news

You got the prices rising again they say

Five o'clock the bar is crowded

Everybody got paid today

And over there at the jukebox

Someone plays 'A Protest Song'

And people tap their feet, start to sing along

'Nothing really changes, its here and then its gone'

Words in 'A Protest Song'

But what's it really saying about what's going on?

And I wonder where it all begins

Count up all the money let me know who wins

And over there is Rosedale

A kid gets out his new guitar

And starts to write a song

About this violent world

And how there's something wrong

How nothing really changes

Its here and then its gone

But what's it really saying

About what's going on?

4.If the Stars Come Out Tonight

Looking back, it seems like a dream

Maybe too good to be true

Was as if we floated downstream

In a world made for two

And on the rainy nights we'd hide in our room

And shut out the lights

And when the weather was clear

We knew of a place that no-one came near

If The Stars Come Out Tonight

I'll meet you at our secret place, baby

We can watch the world go by

If The Stars Come Out Tonight

Summertime was the best

Those sun and thunder days

We found us, forgot about the rest

Found new ways to amaze

And we discovered what we meant to each other

Didn't have a dime but we had plenty of time

Did I ever tell you

When I needed a friend,

You were there till the end

Was I there for you

When you were fading away, taken away?

And now with every day,

You're getting further away


5.It's Up to You

Can I come to your party, I won't get in your way
I'll stand there in the corner with not too much to say
Except what you have heard by now
At least a million times

It's up to you
It's up to you
I've done all I can do
It's up to you

I've been your ivory tower, it's hard to read your mind
The letters and the flowers they're just my way to try
They can't express how much I miss
And wait for your reply

It's up to you
It's up to you
I've done all I can do
It's up to you

Go search forever if you need the time
I know someday you're gonna see the light
I know it's right

Someday you'll know your only love
Has been here all the time

It's up to you
It's up to you
I've done all I can do
It's up to you

I've done all I can do
It's up to you
It's up to you
