Bon Džovi - tekstovi pesama (Bon Jovi lyrics)

"I Love This Town"

I always knew, that I'd like this place
You don't have to look too far, to find a friendly face
I feel alive when I'm walkin' on the street
I feel the heart of the city poundin' underneath my feet

[CHORUS]
Yeah let the world keep spinning round 'n' round
This is where it's goin' down, down, down
That's why I, love this town
That's why I, keep co-min' round

Say hey (say hey) say yeah (say yeah)
You make me feel at home some how, right, now
That's why I, love this town

I've got some good friends here, I might have broke a heart or two
It's gettin' loud over there, they boys must have had a few
And hey the cop on the corner, he knows everybody's name
And a kid with a dream singin' for some spare loose change

[CHORUS]
Yeah let the world keep spinning round 'n' round
This is where it's goin' down, down, down
That's why I, love this town
That's why I, keep co-min' round

Say hey (say hey) say yeah (say yeah)
You make me feel at home some how, right, now

That's why I, love this town

[GUITAR SOLO]

There's shoutin' from the rooftops
Dancin' on the bars
Hangin' out the window
Drivin' in their famous cars
You want it? You got it
You ready? I'm on it
Come on now, here we go again....

That's why I, love this town
That's why I, love this town

No matter where you're from, tonight you're from right here
This is where it all goes down, down, down
That's why I, love this town

[REPEAT x3]
Say hey (say hey) say yeah (say yeah)
I love this town
[END REPEAT]

Say hey (say hey) say yeah (say yeah)
I loove this town

[GUITAR SOLO - END OF SONG]
 
"Put The Boy Back In Cowboy"

They should have put her in the movies
My little country - cutie
She's the reason I believe god made blue jeans
I was a slicker from the city
When I met that little filly
I was six feet tall
Till she brought me to my knees
I sold my forghein car for a pick up truck
And have a drink Champaign
now its jack straight up
When you better like Hank here
Or you rather love
What's up?

She put the boy back in cowboy
and I was just a rednecked wanna be
She put the boy back in cowboy
That southern woman made a new man out of me

The transformation was amazing
Even Jesus couldn't save me
Late at night I was such a sight to see
At the rodeo she kissed me
then said"boy don't get too frisky
If you're lucky you might too step home with me"
Yeah I got the boots above
Was dancing high to get a big
i got a big belt buckle trying to rope a cow
For me the ring of fire is this cool as Johnny Cash

She put the boy back in cowboy
Hell,I was just a redneck wanna be
She put the boy back in cowboy
That's southern woman made a new man out of me
That country woman made a new man out of me

She put the boy back in cowboy
She put the boy back in cowboy
She's a live wire, bonefire
Desired to be high
She got me high high high

She put the boy back in cowboy
Hell i was just a rednecked wanna be
She put the boy back in cowboy
That country woman

She put the boy back in cowboy
hell I was just a rednecked wanna be
She put the boy back in cowboy
it sure be nice to make your company
That southern woman made a new man out of me
She put the boy back in cowboy
She put the boy back in cowboy
She put the boy back in cowboy
She put the boy back in cowboy
 
"We Weren't Born To Follow"

This one goes out to the man who mines for miracles
This one goes out to the ones in need
This one goes out to the sinner and the cynical
This ain't about no apology
This road was paved by the hopeless and the hungry
This road was paved by the winds of change
Walking beside the guilty and the innocent
How will you raise your hand when they call your name?
Yeah, yeah, yeah

We weren't born to follow
Come on and get up off your knees
When life is a bitter pill to swallow
You gotta hold on to what you believe
Believe that the sun will shine tomorrow
And that your saints and sinners bleed
We weren't born to follow
You gotta stand up for what you believe
Let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah

This one's about anyone who does it differently
This one's about the one who cusses and spits
This ain't about our livin' in a fantasy
This ain't about givin' up or givin' in
Yeah, yeah, yeah

We weren't born to follow
Come on and get up off your knees
When life is a bitter pill to swallow
You gotta hold on to what you believe
Believe that the sun will shine tomorrow
And that your saints and sinners bleed
We weren't born to follow
You gotta stand up for what you believe
Let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah
Let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah

[guitar solo]

We weren't born to follow
Come on and get up off your knees
When life is a bitter pill to swallow
You gotta hold on to what you believe
Believe that the sun will shine tomorrow
And that your saints and sinners bleed
We weren't born to follow
You gotta stand up for what you believe
Let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah
Let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah

We weren't born to follow - oh yeah
We weren't born to follow - oh yeah
 
"When We Were Beautiful"

The world is cracked
The sky is torn
I’m hanging in
You’re holding on

I can’t pretend
That nothings changed
Living in the shadows
Of the love we made

Back…When we were beautiful
Before the world got small
Before we knew it all
Back… When we were innocent
I wonder where it went
Let’s go back and find it

Sha la la Sha la la hey Sha la la
Sha la la Sha la la hey Sha la la

Some dreams live
Some will die
But the you and me
Is still alive

Now am I blessed?
Or am I cursed?
Cause the way we are
Aint the way we were

Back…When we were beautiful
Before the world got small
Before we knew it all
Back… When we were innocent
I wonder where it went
Let’s go back and find it

[Solo]

The world is cracked
The sky is torn
So much less
Meant so much more

Back…When we were beautiful
Before the world got small
Before we knew it all
Back… When we were innocent
I wonder where it went
Let’s go back and find it

Back…When we were beautiful
Back…When we were beautiful
Back…When we were beautiful
Back…When we were beautiful

Sha la la Sha la la hey Sha la la
Sha la la Sha la la hey Sha la la
 
"Work For The Working Man"

I'm here trying to make a living
I ain't living just to die
Never getting back what I'm giving
Can someone somewhere help me justify
Why these strong hands are on the un-employment line

Now there's nothing left
But what's on my mind
oh ohh oh ohh

Who's gonna work for the working man
(Hurt) for the working man
(Work) Get your hands in the dirt
Who's gonna work off the curse
(Work) Brother I'll be damned
(Work) If I don't raise a hand
(Work) Whose gonna work work work
For the working man, working man

Empty pockets full of worry
Had to get two jobs
And it was hard enough just getting by
With the grace of god I'll get us through
I only know what I know how to do
I'm the only one who's got to look my family in the eye

Day after day
Night after night
Oh Ohh Oh Ohh

Who's gonna work for the working man
(Hurt) for the working man
(Work) Get your hands in the dirt
Who's gonna work off the curse
(Work) Brother I'll be damned
(Work) If I don't raise a hand
(Work) Whose gonna work work work
For the working man, working man, working man, working man

I lost my pension
They took my I.D
These were my friends
These were my dreams
These were my hopes
These are my streets
Can you hear me?

Who's gonna work for the working man
(Hurt) for the working man
(Work) Get your hands in the dirt
Who's gonna work off the curse
(Work) Brother I'll be damned
(Work) If I don't raise a hand
(Work) Whose gonna work work work
For the working man, working man, working man, working man

These were my friens
These were my dreams
These were my hopes
These are my... streets
 
"Superman Tonight"

There's something about you
I want to rescue
I don't even know you
So what does that mean

Maybe I'm cynical
I'm painfully logical
You're tragic and beautiful
And that's good enough for me

You're looking for a hero, but it's just my old tattoo
Tonight I swear I'd sell my soul to be a hero for you

Who's going to save you
When the stars fall from your sky
And who's going to pull you in
When the tide gets too high
Who's going to hold you
When you turn out the lights
I won't lie I wish that I
Could be your superman tonight

If somebody sent you
An angel to save you
What would you tell him to turn him away

That your heart don't break
That your lips don't kiss
That life is just a lie
That heaven don't exist?

Who's going to save you
When the stars fall from your sky
And who's going to pull you in
When the tide gets too high
Who's going to hold you
When you turn out the lights
I won't lie I wish that I
Could be your superman tonight

Who's going to fix you
The next time you break down
Stranded alone by the side of the road
It's your baggage that's dragging you down
Don't look back
Let it go

Ohhh, Ohhhhh

Who's going to save you
When the stars fall from your sky
And who's going to pull you in
When the tide gets too high
Who's going to hold you
When you turn out the lights
I won't lie I wish that I
Was that superman

Who's going to save you
When the stars fall from your sky
And who's going to pull you in
When the tide gets too high
Who's going to hold you
When you turn out the lights
I won't lie I wish that I
Could be your superman tonight

woooah, woooah, woooah ohhh
woooah, woooah, woooah ohhh
woooah, woooah, woooah ohhh
woooah, woooah, woooah ohhh
 
"Bullet"

Yeah, Yeah
Yeah, Yeah
Yeah, Yeah
Yeah, Yeah

Dateline early sunday morning
Shots ring out without a warning
No one seems to even blink in this town
Two dead and a baby missing
Sirens screaming in the distance
A mother pleading bring my baby home now

For the pink slip of an suv
A night cut down with tragedy
His defense another generation breakdown

Yeah, Yeah

What is the distance between a bullet and a gun
God are you listning
Or have you just given up

Yeah, Yeah
Yeah, yeah

Corporate countries go to war
Behind the lies they're fighting for
And black gold from an old king's soul won his round
How can someone take a life
In the name of god and say it's right
How does money lead to greed
When there's still hungry mouths to feed

Yeah, Yeah

What is the distance between a bullet and a gun
God are you listning
Or have you just given up

We need forgiveness
We all need a lot of love....

We need some hope
We need it now
A little faith man help me out
I'll learn to pray
But it's too late now

Yeah, Yeah

What is the distance between a bullet and a gun
God are you listening
Or have you just given up

What is the distance between a bullet and a gun
We need forgivness
We all need a lot of love...
A lot of love...
 
"Thorn In My Side"

Thorn in my side
You're always there
Just to remind me
That I still care

Thorn in my side
You won't let me go
Right there beside me
To let me know

I've been pushed around
Been knocked down
Lost a round or three
Life took a couple of things I loved
When I was too blind to see

But I'll survive
I gave up on luck but I'm still getting by
Yeah I'm going to be alright
You can test my faith
But you can't take my pride
Thorn in my side, thorn in my side, ooooah

Thorn in my side
You just won't quit
Once in a while when I crack a smile
You rub my face in it
Thorn in my side
You won't let me run
God bless the fights
That I've lost and won

But I'll survive
I gave up on luck but I'm still getting by
Yeah I'm going to be alright
You can test my faith
But you can't take my pride
Thorn in my side, thorn in my side, thorn in my side
Thorn in my side, thorn in my side, thorn in my side

I've been pushed around
Been knocked down
Lost a round or three
Life took a couple of things I loved
When I was too blind to see

But I'll survive
I gave up on luck but I'm still getting by
Yeah I'm going to be alright
You can test my faith
But you can't take my pride
Thorn in my side, thorn in my side, thorn in my side
Thorn in my side, thorn in my side, thorn in my side
Thorn in my side, wooah, wooooahh ohhh
wooah oh oh, woooah oh ohhhh
 
"Live Before You Die"

I was a little boy of 9 years old
The whole world in my hands
Trying to toss that ball across the yard
A game of catch with my old man

He would always say I'm sorry
Every time he had to leave
And I was much to young to understand
When he would say to me

When you're young you always think
The sun is going to shine
There will come a day
When you have to say hello to goodbye
Sit down son take my hand,
Look me in the eye
Take these words, promise me
You'll live before you die

I was barely seventeen summer of seventy-nine
Already I was feeling like I was running out of time
I had this girl we fell in love
Or should I say that she had me
Then one fateful night changed our lives
And made a memory

When you're young you always think
The sun is going to shine
There will come a day
When you have to say hello to goodbye
She laid me down she took my hand
And looked me in the eye
And just before she kissed me she said
You got to live before we die

You learn to love to live
You fight and you forgive
You learn what's wrong and right
You live before you die

I made mistakes I caught some breaks
But I got not regrets
There's some things I don't remember
But one thing I don't forget

When you're young you always think
The sun is going to shine
One day you're going to have to say hello to goodbye
Shout it out let someone somewhere
Know that you're alive
Take these words wear them well
Live before you die
Live before you die
Hey!
Live before you die

You learn to love to live
You fight and you forgive
You face the darkest night
Just live before you die
 
"Brokenpromiseland"

Angels falling from the sky
Imagine that imaine that
Nobody getting out of here alive
No turning back no turning back
Who's going to bail out all our shattered dreams
And scrape some truth off of these city streets
No time for praying get up off your knees

There's hope I know
Out on that lonely road
Cause home is where you are and where I am
Breathe in breathe out
There's only now
And all I got I'm holding in my hands
We're breaking out of brokepromiseland

Let's close our eyes and just disappear
Slip through the cracks no looking back
We'll get a million miles away from here
And let the past just fade to black
So what you learn to live with your regrets
No need to fear what hasn't happened yet
Life will get you but you can't forget

There's hope I know
Out on that lonely road
Cause home is where you are and where I am
Breathe in breathe out
There's only now
And all I got I'm holding in my hands
We're breaking out of brokepromiseland

So rise my fallen angel
Come on now come on now
Shine, don't let them break you
Come on now, come on now
Come on now, come on now

Come on now, come on now
Come on now, come on

There's hope I know
Out on that lonely road
Cause home is where you are and where I am
Breathe in breathe out
There's only now
And all I got I'm holding in my hands
We're breaking out of brokepromiseland

La la la la la la la la... breaking out of brokenpromiseland
La la la la la la la la... breaking out of brokenpromiseland
La la la la la la la la, La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la, La la la la la la la la
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh ohh
 
"Love's The Only Rule"

I don't give a damn
How it's supposed to be
That might work for you
It don't work for me

You write your truth
And I'll write mine
One man's ceiling's
Another man's sky high

Flying like an aeroplane
Crying Like the lonely whistle of a long black train
Dance in the pouring rain
Spit in the eye of a hurricane
Who said life has got to be so cruel
Love's the only rule

It's written in the scars
Where I fit in
It's going to hurt sometimes
You got to lose to win

You've got your sins
And I got mine
Sell your secrets kiss them all goodbye

Flying like an aeroplane
Alive like a lonely note from John Coltrane
Run like it's a getaway
Say those things that you shouldn't say
Think about it wouldn't that be cool?
If love's the only rule

Might be a wrecking ball
Or just a wake up call
Don't matter where the peices fall

Wooooah, wooooah, wooooah

I'm gonna fly like an aeroplane
Cry like the whistle of a long black train
Dance in the pouring rain
I'm alive like a lonely not from John Coltrane
Run like it's a getaway
Say those things that you souldn't say

Where love, love's the only rules
Yes love, love's the only rule
Ah love, love's the only rule
Love, only rule
Love's the only rule

Wooooah, wooooah , wooooah
 
"Fast Cars"

How can I defend
"Let's live for now not then"
We're chasing tail lights
Let them fade into the distance
Let's say the engine stalled and start again
Turn around let's turn around
It's a dark road we been heading down
Trust me tonight I swear I know where we are
We're gonna run all the lights
We're gonna blow right through the radar

Fast cars
We are fast cars

How can I pretend the signs don't say dead end
So many hearts just wind up in a junkyard
Where memories are nothing but spare parts
Turn around just turn around
And leave the past behind us now
Come on we aint gonna crash
This time we ain't slowing down
we'll pull ahed of the pack
Slip thru the cracks cause we are

Fast cars
On a long ride take your foot off the brake
Let's just put it in drive
We are fast cars on the inside
There's no turning back
On the highway of life
Fast cars
We are fast cars

(Sha La Sha La)
Flying through the stop signs
(Sha La Sha La)
Running over bad times
(Sha La Sha La)
Gunning down the daylight
Counting days like white lines
Holding on for our lives

We are fast cars

We are fast cars
On a long ride take your foot off the brake
Let's just put it in drive
We are fast cars on the inside
There's no turning back on this highway tonight
(Sha La Sha La)
(Sha La Sha La)
We are fast cars
(Sha La Sha La)
We are fast cars
We are fast cars
 
"Happy Now"

What would you say to me
If I told you I had a dream
If I told you everything
Would you tell me to go back to sleep
Take a look in these tired eyes
They're coming back to life
I know I can change
Got hope in my veins
I'm telling you I ain't going back to the pain

Can I be happy now
Can I let my breath out
Let me believe
I'm building a dream
Don't try to drag me down
I just want to scream out loud
Can I be happy now
Been down on my knees
I learned how to bleed
I'm turnin my world around

Can I be happy now
Can I break free somehow
I just want to live again
Love again
Pick my pride up off of the ground
I'm ready to pick a fight
Crawl out of the dark to shine a light
I ain't throwing stones
Got sins of my own
Ain't everbody just trying to find a way home

Can I be happy now
Can I let my breath out
let me believe
I'm building a dream
Don't try to drag me down
I just want to scream out loud
Can I be happy now
Been down on my knees
I learned how to bleed
I'm turning my world around

You're born then you die
it's all gone in a minute
I ain't looking back
Cause I don't want to miss it
You better live now
Cause no one's going to get out alive, alive

Can I be happy now
Can I let my breath out
let me believe
I'm building a dream
Don't try to drag me down
I just want to scream out loud
Can I be happy now
Been down on my knees
I learned how to bleed
I'm turning my world around
Can I be happy now
Ohhhh
I'm turning my world around
Can I be happy now
 
"Learn To Love"

I have run from the truth
Since the days of my misspent youth
I was hungry for kindness
I was lost in life's blindness
When you're born without wings
All you dream of all you want
Is that feeling of flying?
Of rising and climbing

Halle Halle
We're one breath away
Halle Halle
From our judgement day

You leave it all on the table
If you lose or you win
You've got to learn to love
The world you're living in

Always thought I'd die young
In these hands I held the gun
But it's too late for dying
Now there's nothing worth hiding
I've lost love lived with shame
I was humbled by my fall from grace
On the steps of decision
It's revenge or forgiveness

Halle Halle
We're one breath away
Halle Halle
From our judgement day

You leave it all on the table
If you lose or you win
You got to learn to love
The world you're living in

Halle Halle
Halle Halle

Halle Halle
We're one breath away
Halle Halle
From our judgement day
You leave it all on the table
If you lose or you win
You got to learn to love
The world you're living in

Halle Halle
And that's how it is
You've got to learn to love
The world you're living in

Halle Halle
Halle Halle
Halle Halle
 
"Because We Can"

I don't wanna be another wave in the ocean
I am a rock not just another grain of sand
I wanna be the one you run to when you need a shoulder
I ain't a soldier but I'm here to take a stand
Because we can

She's in the kitchen staring out the window
So tired of living life in black and white
Right now she's missing those technicolor kisses
When he turns down the lights

Lately he's feeling like a broken promise
In the mirror staring down his doubt
There's only one thing in this world that he knows
He said forever and he'll never let her down

I don't wanna be another wave in the ocean
I am a rock not just another grain of sand
I wanna be the one you run to when you need a shoulder
I ain't a soldier but I'm here to take a stand
Because we can

TV and takeout on the coffee table
Paper dishes, pour a glass of wine
Turn down the sound and move a little closer
And for the moment everything is alright

I don't wanna be another wave in the ocean
I am a rock not just another grain of sand
I wanna be the one you run to when you need a shoulder
I ain't a soldier but I'm here to take a stand

Because we can, our love can move a mountain
We can, if you believe in we
We can, just wrap your arms around me
We can, we can

I don't wanna be another wave in the ocean
I am a rock not just another grain of sand
I wanna be the one you run to when you need a shoulder
I ain't a soldier but I'm here to take a stand

I don't wanna be another wave in the ocean
I am a rock not just another grain of sand
I wanna be the one you run to when you need a shoulder
I ain't a soldier but I'm here to take a stand

Because we can, our love can move a mountain
We can, if you believe in we
We can, just wrap your arms around me
We can, we can
Because we can
 
"I'm With You"

Look at this world
It's filled with worn out faces
Forgotten places and nothing changes
Whatever happened to that new day rising
We're just surviving when living is dying

Aren't you tired of being let down?
Another day, another shakedown

I'm with you

When hope is gone and all you want is the truth
(I'm with you)
You carry on when they say, "It's no use"
(I'm with you)

If I got one thing, I got something to prove
We all got nothing if there's nothing to lose
(I'm with you)

I walk in shadows that seem all familiar
I've read the papers, life forsaken
A vacant store front, I want more for sale sign
Down on main street you just walk by

How many times we gotta break down
Before somebody's gonna shout out?

I'm with you

When hope is gone and all you want is the truth
(I'm with you)
You carry on when they say, "It's no use"
(I'm with you)

If I got one thing, I got something to prove
We all got nothing if there's nothing to lose
(I'm with you)

[Guitar Solo]

When hope is gone and all you want is the truth
(I'm with you)
You carry on when they say, "It's no use" (you say, "It's no use")

Well, I've got one thing, I got something to prove
We all got nothing if there's nothing to lose
(I'm with you)

I'm with you.
I'm with you.
I'm with you.
 
"What About Now"

You wanna start a fire
It only takes a spark
You gotta get behind the wheel
If you're ever gonna drive that car

If you wanna take a bite
You'd better have the teeth
If you're gonna take that step
Then get up off of your knees

'Cause tonight we're alive

Who'll stand for the restless and the lonely?
For the desperate and the hungry?
Time for the count, I'm hearing you now.
For the faithful, the believer,
For the faithless and the teacher.
Stand up and be proud...
What about now?

You wanna start a fight
You gotta take a swing.
You gotta get your hands in the dirt
To see what the harvest will bring.

You wanna raise your voice
Don't be scared to breathe
Don't be afraid to hurt
Don't be ashamed in need

'Cause tonight we're alive

Who'll stand for the restless and the lonely?
For the desperate and the hungry?
Time for the count, I'm hearing you now.
For the faithful, the believer,
For the faithless and the teacher.
Stand up and be proud...
What about now?

The leaves fall like reasons that drift through the seasons
'Til dreams are just fade dark and grey.
And all of your plans that slip right through your hands
Are just things that you take to your grave.

Tonight we're alive.

Who'll stand for the restless, for the lonely?
For the desperate and the hungry?
Time for the count, I'm hearing you now.
For the faithful, the believer,
For the faithless and the teacher.
Stand up and be proud...
What about now?
What about now?
What about now?
What about now?
 
"Pictures Of You"

I feel just like Picasso
And you're my masterpiece
I painted you a lifetime
Now what's left are memories
Oooh

Sunlight's in the curtains
Diamonds in the trees
I gave you colors blue and gold
As you lay upon the sheets
Something so familiar drawn from this blank page
Every line from my hand takes me back to what I can't erase
No matter how I try, no matter what I do
I'm still painting pictures of you

I could almost smell your perfume
In each brush stroke of the flowers
I left you tea from China
Waiting in your sacred tower
Something so familiar drawn from this blank page
Every line from my hand takes me back to what I can't erase
No matter how I try, no matter what I do
I'm still painting pictures of you

If I should go crazy, if I would go blind
I'd still fill the canvas from the pictures in my mind
If that's the only way to make you mine

It was something so familiar
Drawn from this blank page
Every line from my hand takes me back to what I can't erase
No matter how I try, no matter what I do
I'm still painting pictures, I'm always painting pictures
Still painting pictures of you

Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh...
 
"Amen"

Last night I had a dream
The dream I had was true
I fell through the stars
When walking on the moon
Burned like a thousand candles in her arms

Her skin under my finger tips
The honeysuckle on her lips
Sweeter than a man deserves to taste
Mercy, mercy, what else can I say?

But amen, amen, amen

Last night we were born together
It was like we’d always been
She’ll be with me forever
If I don’t see her again
We poured the wine until our cup ran over

Unfolding like a mystery
Inside of her like poetry
A thousand horses running through my veins
Mercy, mercy what else can I say

Amen, amen, amen

I laid down in her garden
Naked on her floor
Windows up, the curtains blowing
She don’t lock the door

Amen, amen

At the banquet table
A beggar at a feast
I felt her tongue between my lips
And I forgot to breath
We stayed there ‘til the candles burned the carpet

Last night I had a dream
The dream I had was true
Mercy, mercy, what else can I say
Mercy, mercy, I kneeled down and prayed

Amen, amen, amen
 
"That's What The Water Made Me"

Baby, baby, baby
There's no use in trying to save me
There's devils in heaven
There's angels in hell
So, blow me one last kiss
And wish me well, well

Love is like fingerprints
They don't wash away
I left mine all over you
I take the blame

Ask me how
Ask me what
Ask me why, baby

That's what the water made me
That's who I am and what I'll be
That's what the water, that's what the water made me
There ain't no doubt about it
It makes you or brings you to your knees
That's what the water, that's what the water made me

This world is cracked and crazy
Say one of your pretty prayers for me
No rose in the garden
Or wish in the well

I don't know how
Don't know what
Don't know why, baby

That's what the water made me
That's who I am and what I'll be
That's what the water, that's what the water made me
There ain't no doubt about it
It makes you or brings you to your knees
That's what the water, that's what the water made me
That's what the water, that's what the water

Ask me how
Ask me what
Ask me why

Baby, baby, baby
There's no use in trying to save me
There's devils in heaven
There's angels in hell

(Hold me close, hold me close, hold me)

That's what the water made me
That's who I am and what I'll be
That's what the water, that's what the water made me
There ain't no doubt about it
It makes you or brings you to your knees
That's what the water, that's what the water
 
"What's Left Of Me"

For thirty odd years I was a newspaper man
I made my living with a pen and a pad
God I miss the smell of paper and the ink on my hands

Been back from the desert for a year or so
I left more in that sand than you'll ever know
Another war was waiting for me when I got back home

In the name of the flag some gave their lives
I'm still living, yeah, Semper Fi
Well, that's my story, what else can I say
Hey, hey

I got a lot to give say can you see
I'm still breathing and my heart still beats
They took the car but they left the lease
Does anybody want what's left of me?

Boarded up the house, they left the keys
Foreclosed on my city, rolled up these streets
But I ain't checking out, I still got my dreams
Does anybody want what's left of me?
Hey, hey, hey, hey

They called us "Dirty Harry", we're a punk rock band
Why they sold old CBGB's I don't understand
All that’s left now are the t-shirts and they come from Japan

I sold my drums to make ends meet
The band broke up, we had to eat
It's the same old shit, it just happens more these days,
Hey, hey

I got a lot to give say can you see
I'm still breathing and my heart still beats
They took the car but they left the lease
Does anybody want what's left of me?

Boarded up the house, they left the keys
Foreclosed on my city, rolled up these streets
But I ain't checking out, I still got my dreams
Does anybody want what's left of me?
Hey, hey, hey, hey

I'm a teacher, I'm a farmer, I'm a union man
It's getting hard to make a living in this hard land
We ain't working in our factories, all those jobs went overseas.
Hey, hey.

Does anybody want, does anybody want,
Does anybody want what's left of me?

I got a lot to give, say can you see
I'm still breathing and my heart still beats
They took the car but they left the lease
Does anybody want what's left of me?

Does anybody want to buy or rent,
Take a chance or place a bet?
I ain't checking out, I still got my dreams
Does anybody want what's left of me?
Hey, hey, hey, hey.

Does anybody want, does anybody want,
Does anybody want what's left of me?
Hey, hey, hey, hey

Does anybody want, does anybody want,
Does anybody want what's left of me?
 
"Army Of One"

I’m in this war
But got no gun
Still standing strong
An army of one
So sign me up
I’m a soldier

I’ve got a voice
It’s all I need
A beating heart inside of me
I’m an army of one
I’m a soldier

These eyes hold no disguise
We’re fighting for our lives
We’re all trying to get back home tonight

Never give up
Never give up
Never
Never give up
Never let up
Ever
Never give in
You’re an army of one

Never give up
Never give up
Never
Never forget
Where you’re from
Never give up
You’re an army of one

I can’t hurt but I still feel
I know that life’s a battlefield
When the times get tough
I’m a soldier

And when it’s time to face the fight
With just my shadow at my side
I’m an army of one
I’m a soldier

Never give up
Never give up
Never
Never give up
Never let up
Ever
Never give in
You’re an army of one

Never give up
Never give up
Never
Never forget
Where you’re from
Never give up
You’re an army of one

So don't apologize
Defend, just be alive
We’re all trying
To get it right tonight

Never give up
Never give up
Never
Never give up
Never let up
Ever
Never give in
You’re an army of one

Never give up
Never give up
Never
Never forget
Where you’re from
Never give up
You’re an army of one
 
"Thick As Thieves"

In an empty room or a downtown bar
'Cross the universe, there's no place too far
Ya wherever you are, you and me
Thick as thieves

Well it ain't always pretty, sometimes it got rough
Could have thrown the towel in and thrown our hands up
Seems like we've always been and always will be
Thick as thieves

Time, time won't ever drag us down
You, me, us, ain't looking back or turning around
It's classic boy meets girl, with our backs against the world
You and me
Thick as thieves

In a world without faith, you're what I believe
When they're stacking the deck,
You're the card up my sleeve in my hour of need,
You and me, yeah
Thick as thieves

And that are all that's left behind us now
You, me, us, ain't looking back or turning around
It's classic boy meets girl, with our backs against the world
You and me
Thick as thieves

If I robbed a bank you wouldn't care
You'd come sit on my lap in the electric chair
And when they flipped the switch, huh, we'd just kiss

I know nothing's gonna stop us now
You, me, us, on the edge and never looking down
What's a boy to do, it's classic me and you
Lucky you, lucky me
Thick as thieves, oooh

Thick as thieves, woah, woah.
 
"The Beautiful World"

Every day it's the same when they say that it might be the end
In the end when it ends then I'll listen to them
You wake up, go to work, go to sleep
Then you do it, you do it, if you're lucky then you do it again
Yeah, we walk through a world that we don't understand
When I look in your eyes I'm just happy I can
Yeah, we'll laugh and we'll cry and we'll lose and we'll win
We'll get through it and to prove it yeah we'll do it again

There's glory in the saddest story

Look at it, just sticks and bricks
Makes you wonder how the pieces fit
Where we're going, where we've been
This ain't paradise we're living in
It's a diamond, it's a dirty plastic pearl
Ah, but ain't it a beautiful world?

It's a shame when they say that it's been done and said
They keep digging that grave, let them bury their heads
There's a kid with a dream and a sky full of stars
There's another first kiss in the back of some car

Turn a page and write the story

Look at it, just sticks and bricks
Makes you wonder how the pieces fit
Where we're going, where we've been
This ain't paradise we're living in
It's a diamond, it's a dirty plastic pearl
Ah, but ain't it a beautiful world?

They're running numbers out of the Spanish grocery
Mary Mary says her rosary
We get a ladder, there's a cat up in a tree
Ah

The Pretzel man's wearing Gucci glasses
A widow spreads her lover's ashes
I'll hold on to you, hold on to me, yeah
We'll do it, we'll do it, yeah, we're lucky then we'll do it again
Ah

Look at it, just sticks and bricks
Makes you wonder how the pieces fit
Where we're going, where we've been
This ain't paradise we're living in
It's a diamond, it's a dirty string of pearl.
Ah, but ain't it a beautiful world?

Oh, ain't it a beautiful world?
Oh, oh, ain't it a beautiful world?
 
"Room At The End Of The World"

There's a room at the end of the world
Where my secrets go to hide
There's a room at the end of the world
Where I'll wait for you tonight

Where the roads all go to end
Where lost Valentines get sent
Where a rose comes back to life
Where young love never dies
Where we never say goodbye

Don't say no, just give in
Close your eyes, there's no sin
Don't hold back, just let go
Take your time, take it slow
It's me and you in our room at the end of the world

There's a room at the end of the world
Where your memories are safe
There's a room at the end of the world
Just gotta have some faith

Where all prayers go to be heard and the truth will have its turn
Take a look into these eyes, there's no place I'd rather be tonight
No place I'd rather be tonight

Don't say no, just give in
Close your eyes, there's no sin
Don't hold back, just let go
Take your time, take it slow
It's me and you in our room at the end of the world

There's no looking back in our room
Fade to black

There's a room at the end of the world
That I hang on to
There's a room at the end of the world
Where I wait for you,
I'll wait for you

Don't say no, just give in
Close your eyes, there's no sin
Don't hold back, just let go
Take your time, take it slow
It's me and you in our room at the end of the world

Where I wait for you in our room
Dreams are coming true in our room
It's just me and you in our room.
