Don't go (please stay)
Don't go (please stay)

If i got on my knees and i pleaded with you
not to go but to stay in my ar-arms
Would you walk out the door like you did once before
or would this time be different, would you sta-a-ay

Don't go (please stay)
Don't go

If i called out your name like a prayer in the night
would you leave me alone with my tears
Knowing i-i, i love you so-o, would you still turn and go
or would this time be different in some wa-a-ay

Don't go (please stay)
(please stay)

You took me away from the rest of the world
when you taught me to love you like this
Now i hang by a thread in the canyon of doom
but i still can be saved.. by your kiss

If i got on my knees and i pleaded with you
not to go but to stay in my ar-arms
Would you walk out the door like you did once before
or would this time be different, would you sta-a-ay

(don't go)
(please stay)
(don't go)
(please stay)
(don't go)
(please sta-ay-ay-ay-ay) (ay-ay-ay-ay) (ay-ay-ay-ay)

(Feat. Bitty McLean :: original by Charles & Eddie)

Look into my eyes
Can't you see they're open wide
Would I lie to you baby
Would I lie to you
Don't you know it's true
Girl there's no one else but you
Would I lie to you baby yeah

Everybody wants to know the truth
In my arms is the only proof
I've hidden my heart behind the bedroom door
Now it's open I can't do no more
I'm telling you baby you will never find another girl
In this heart of mine

Look into my eyes
Can't you see they're open wide
Would I lie to you baby
Would I lie to you
Don't you know it's true
Girl there's no one else but you
Would I lie to you baby yeah

Everybody's got their history
On every page a mystery
You can read my diary you're in every line
Jealous minds never satisfied (satisfied)
I'm telling you baby you will never find another girl
In this heart of mine

Look into my eyes
Can't you see they're open wide
Would I lie to you baby
Would I lie to you
Don't you know it's true
Girl there's no one else but you
Would I lie to you baby yeah

(Would I lie to you)
When you wanna see me night and day
(would I lie to you)
If I tell you that I'm here to stay
(Would I lie to you)
Do you think I give my love away
(would I lie)
That's not the kind of game I play

I'm telling you baby you will never find another girl
In this heart of mine

Look into my eyes
Can't you see they're open wide
Would I lie to you baby
Would I lie to you
Don't you know it's true
Girl there's no one else but you
Would I lie to you baby yeah
Would I lie to you

I want one of those,
in fact I want two,
One just for me, a spare one for you.
I want one of those,
a different view,
I'm tired of the old, I need something new.

I want to disclose my secret to you,
I might be smiling but inside im blue.

CHORUS
Don't make me wake from my sweet dream,
Don't ever take what might have been,
It's not a lot, try not to steal,
It's all I've got from a Raw Deal.

The Life that I chose, you give what you get,
Never complain, it ain't over yet,
I want some new clothes, some brand new hair do,
It don't have to cost much for a new pair of shoes.

And then I suppose a limousine ride,
to take me away with you by my side.

CHORUS
Don't make me wake from my sweet dream,
Don't ever take what might have been,
It's not a lot, try not to steal,
It's all I've got from a Raw Deal.

Hear the children cryin',
but I know they cry not in vain.
Now the times are changin';
love has come to bloom again.
Smelling the air when spring comes by raindrops
reminds us of youthful days.
But now it's not rain that water the cane crops,
but the sweat from man's brow;
the substance from our spine.
We gotta keep on living, living on borrowed time:
Hallelujah time!

Yes, you can hear the children singing: Hallelujah time!
As they go singing by and by: Hallelujah time!
Oh, "hallelujah" singing in the morning.
Hallelujah time! Let them sing; don't let them cry.

Over rocks and mountains
the sheep are scattered all around.
Over hills and valleys,
they are everywhere to be found.
But though we bear our burdens now,
All afflictions got to end somehow:
From swinging the hammer, pulling the plough.

Why won't you let us be, to live in harmony?
We like to be free like birds in a tree.

Hallelujah time! Yes, you can hear the children singing.
Hallelujah time! Yes, as they go singing by and by.
Hallelujah time! Oh "hallelujah" singing in the morning.
Let them sing; never let them cry.
Hallelujah time! "Hallelujah" singin' in the morning.

(feat. Katie Melua)

Don't try this at home
sitting all alone
Spending all your time
being on your own

Don't be on that phone
with that dialling tone
Calling on your friends
cause their not alone

Don't be on that phone
its a danger zone
Calling round pretending
that your not not alone

(Katie)

If your all alone
you can call on me
You can knock my door
for some company

If your all alone
fundamentaly
you ain't got nobody

(Ali)

Don't try this at home
sitting all alone
Spending all your time
being on your own

Don't try this at home
or believe you me
Everything ain't true
you see on your tv

Are they friend or foe
or are they enemy
If seeings believing
i don't believe what I see

(Katie)

If your all alone
you can call on me
You can knock my door
for some company

If your all alone
fundamentaly
you ain't got nobody

(Ali)

Don't try this at home
sitting all alone
Spending all your time
being on your own

Don't try this at home
As someone who knows
Trying to get high
Leads to lonely lows

Its bad to de bone
Its a no go zone
You don't notice that
It's as cold as stone

(Katie)

If your all alone
you can call on me
You can knock my door
for some company

If your all alone
fundamentaly
you ain't got nobody

(Ali & Katie sing together)

[Chorus]

I love the way you flex
I like the way you stay
Never know whats coming next
When your coming to play

But I'm willing to bet
Go as far as to say
Hey Hey Hey
You keep coming back

Coz you can't keep away
You Can't keep it up
You Can't keep it down
You can't disguise the way you feel
When I am around

I can't walk away
I can't concentrate
I can't imagine you and me
Not staying up late

[Chorus]

I love the way you flex
I like the way you stay
Never know whats coming next
When your coming to play

But I'm willing to bet
Go as far as to say
Yeah Yeah Yeah
You keep coming back

Coz you can't keep away
You know what I mean
You know what I say
You get where I'm coming from
When I go away

We just get it on
We just burnin bright
We just stick together
Everything is alright

[Chorus]

I love the way you flex
I like the way you stay
Never know whats coming next
When your coming to play

But I'm willing to bet
Go as far as to say
Yeah Yeah Yeah
You keep coming back

Coz you can't keep away
I've gotta move on
I gotta get rest
I gotta let you know
Exactly just how I flex

You see that I'm here
You see I'm not there
You see to me when
I pretend that I don't really care

[Chorus]

I love the way you flex
I like the way you stay
Never know whats coming next
When your coming to play

But I'm willing to bet
Go as far as to say
Yeah Yeah Yeah
You keep coming back

Coz you can't keep away

You keep coming back
You keep comin back
You keep comin back

Coz you can't keep away

(feat. Mick Hucknall/Simply Red :: original by Smokey Robinson 1981)

I don't care what they think about me
I don't care what they say
I don't care what they think if you're leaving
I'm gonna beg you to stay
I don't care if they start to avoid me
I don't care what they do
I don't care about anything else
But being with you being with you

Honey don't go don't leave this scene
Be out of the picture and off of the screen
Don't let them say we told you so
Don't tell me you love me and then let me go
I heard the warning voice
From friends and my relation
They tell me all about your heart-break reputation

I don't care what they think about me
I don't care what they say
I don't care what they think if you're leaving
I'm gonna beg you to stay
I don't care if they start to avoid me
I don't care what they do
I don't care about anything else
But being with you being with you

People can change they always do
Haven't they noticed the changes in you
Or can it be that like love I am blind
Do I want it so much 'til it's all in my mind
One thing I know for sure
Is really really real
I never felt before the way you make me feel

I don't care what they think about me
I don't care what they say
I don't care what they think if you're leaving
I'm gonna beg you to stay
I don't care if they start to avoid me
I don't care what they do
I don't care about anything else
But being with you being with you
Being with you being with you

This feelins so strong
That something is wrong
I've been waiting here for ages
But Its taking too long

I gotta get away
Take a holiday
Take myself away
From reality

[Chorus]

Gotta get away
Take a holiday
From everything thats buggin me
What I say
I gotta get away
From the poverty
Find myself a better place

I can't tell a lie
I need to get high
I've been living in the gutter
For so long I could cry

I need to get away
Take a holiday
Take myself away
From reality

[Chorus]

I gotta get away
From reality
From everything thats buggin me
What I say
I gotta get away
From the poverty
I'll find myself a better day

My feet feel like lead
I can't lift my head
I'm so empty in my belly
Did you hear what I say

I gotta get away
Take a holiday
Take myself away
from reality

[Chorus 2x]

I gotta get away
Take a holiday
From everything thats buggin me
What I say
I gotta get away from the poverty
I'll find myself a better day

I gotta get away
From the poverty
I'll find myself a better day
I gotta get away
Take a holiday

(feat. Robin Campbell :: original by The Everly Brothers 1958 )

Darlin’ you can count on me
Till the sun dries up the sea
Until then I’ll always be devoted to you
I’ll be yours through endless time
I’ll adore your charms sublime
Guess by now you know that I’m devoted to you

I’ll never hurt you, I’ll never lie
I’ll never be untrue
I’ll never give you reason to cry
I’d be unhappy if you were blue

Through the years my love will grow
Like a river it will flow
It can’t die because I’m so devoted to you

I’ll never hurt you, I’ll never lie
I’ll never be untrue
I’ll never give you reason to cry
I’d be unhappy if you were blue

Through the years my love will grow
Like a river it will flow
It can’t die because I’m so devoted to you

(feat. Aston `Family Man' Barrett and Don Yute :: original by Stevie Wonder 1976)

Would you like to go with me
Down my dead end street
Would you like to come with me
To Village Ghetto Land

See the people lock their doors
While robbers laugh and steal
Beggars watch and eat their meal -from garbage cans

Broken glass is everywhere
It's a bloody scene
Killing plagues the citizens
Unless they own police

Children play with rusted cars
Sores cover their hands
Politicians laugh and drink-drunk to all demands

Families buying dog food now
Starvation roams the streets
Babies die before they're born
Infected by the grief

Now some folks say that we should be
Glad for what we have
Tell me would you be happy in Village Ghetto Land

Village Ghetto Land

So cold around my heart
So cold around my heart

Here in the afterglow
Of the late night show
one thing I want to know
Do you really have to go

Here in my loneliness
I fear I must confess
My lifes become a mess
So full of emptyness

It gets so cold around my heart
Whenever your not here
It feels like I've been torn apart
Its everything i fear

So cold around my heart
So cold around my heart

It gets so cold around my heart
Whenever your not here
it feels like I've been pulled apart
Its everything I fear

So cold around my heart
So cold around my heart

So here inside of me
Theres a raging sea
You know I can't break free
And I stay here willingly

If there was someone who
Would make me feel brand new
I think that I would do
all i could do to forget you

It gets so cold around my heart
Whenever your not here
It feels like i've been pulled apart
its everything I fear

So cold around my heart
So cold around my heart
So cold around my heart
So cold around my heart
