Альбом Boyzone

I like the feel of your name on my lips
And I like the sound of your sweet gentle kiss
The way that your fingers run through my hair
And how your scent lingers even when you're not there

And I like the way your eyes dance when you laugh
And how you enjoy your two-hour bath
And how you've convinced me to dance in the rain
With everyone watching like we were insane

But I love the way you love me
Strong and wild, slow and easy
Heart and soul so completely
I love the way you love me

And I like the sound of old R 'n' B
And you roll your eyes when I'm sloppily off key
And I like the innocent way that you cry
At sappy old movies you've seen thousands of times

CHORUS

(Listen to me now..)
And I could list a million things
I love to like about you
But they could all come down to one reason
I could never live without you..

CHORUS

Chica cha ha ha
Chica cha ha ha
Chica cha ha ha
Chica cha ha ha
Chica cha ha ha
Chica cha ha ha

No matter what they tell us
No matter what they do
No matter what they teach us
What we believe is true

No matter what they call us
However they attack
No matter where they take us
We'll find our own way back

I can't deny what I believe
I can't be what I'm not
I know our love forever
I know, no matter what

If only tears were laughter (ooh)
If only night was day (ooh)
If only prayers were answered (hear my prayers)
Then we would hear God say (say)

No matter what they tell you (ooh)
No matter what they do (ooh)
No matter what they teach you
What you believe is true

And I will keep you safe and strong
And shelter from the storm
No matter where it's barren
A dream is being born

(Ooh)

No matter who they follow
No matter where they lead
No matter how they judge us
I'll be everyone you need

No matter if the sun don't shine (sun don't shine)
Or if the skies are blue (skies are blue)
No matter what the end is
My life began with you

I can't deny what I believe (what I believe, yeah)
I can't be what I'm not
(I know, I know) I know this love's forever
That's all that matters now
No matter what

No matter what (no, no matter, no)

No, no matter
That's all that matters to me
(Repeat X 7)

I was lost and alone
Trying to grow, making my way down that long winding road
Had no reason, no rhyme
Like a song out of time
And there you were, standing in front of my eyes

How could I be such a fool
To let go of love and break all the rules
Girl when you walked out that door
left a hole in my heart
And now I know for sure

You're the air that I breathe
Girl you're all that I need
And I wanna thank you, lady
You're the words that I read
You're the light that I see
And your love is all that I need

I was searching in vain
Playing a game
Had no-one else but myself left to blame
You came into my world
No diamonds or pearls
Could ever replace what you gave to me girl

Just like a castle of sand
Girl, I almost let love slip right out of my hands
And just like a flower needs rain
I will stand by your side through the joy and the pain

CHORUS X 2

You're all that I need, girl
You're the air that I breathe, yeah
And I want to thank you
(and I want to thank you, lady)

You're the words that I read, girl
You're love is all I need, yeah
And I want to thank you
(and I want to thank you, lady)

You're all that I need, girl
You're the air that I breathe, yeah
And I want to thank you..
(to fade)

"I'm sorry,"
It's all that you can't say
Years gone by and still
Words don't come easily
Like "sorry" (like "sorry"..like "sorry"..)

"Forgive me,"
is all that you can't say
Years gone by and still
Words don't come easily
Like "forgive me" ("forgive me"..."forgive me"..)
Forgive me..

But you can say, baby
Baby can I hold you tonight?
Baby, if I told you the right words
oooh, at the right time
You'll be mine

I love you
is all that you can't say
Years gone by and still
Words don't come easily (words don't come easily..)
Like "I love you", I love you..

But you can say, baby
Baby can I hold you tonight?
Baby, if I told you the right words
oooh, at the right time
You'll be mine

(Baby can I hold you...)
But you can say, baby
Baby can I hold you tonight?
Baby, if I told you the right words
oooh, at the right time
You'll be mine

(Baby, if I hold you..)
(Baby, can I hold you..) You'll be mine..
(Baby if I told you..)
(Baby, can I hold you..)
You'll be mine..
(Baby if I told you..)
Baby, can I hold you.

Didn't they say that I would make a mistake
Didn't they say you were gonna be trouble
People told me you were too much to take
I could see it, I didn't wanna know
I let you in and you let me down
You pushed me up and you turned my whole life around
I could feel that I had no where to go
I was alone, how was I too know that..

You'll be there, when I needed somebody
You'll be there, the only one who can help me

I had a picture of you in my mind
never knew it could be so wrong
Why'd it take me so long just to find
the friend that was there all along.

Who'd believe that after all we've been through
I'd be able to put my whole trust in you
Goes to show you can't forgive and forget
looking back, I have no regrets cause..

You will be there, when I needed somebody
You will be there, the only one to help me

CHORUS

You will be there, when I needed somebody
You will be there, the only one to help me

CHORUS - repeat to fade

It's the sign of the times, girl
Sad songs on the radio
It's the sign of the times, girl
As the leaves begin to go
But all these signs now,
showing on my face
Proving me wrong, taking it's place

And I pray to God
That there's more that we can do, yeah
And I pray to God
That there's more that we can show
More that we can do, yeah

Isn't It a Wonder
as a newborn baby cries
And isn't it a wonder
with the sweetness in my eyes
and isn't it a wonder
at the crossroads of my life
Isn't it a wonder?
Isn't it a wonder, to me?

It's the way of the world when,
Wrong takes hold of right
It's the way of the world
In which we've all lost sight
But isn't this world
Too simple to be true?
Holding on to memories of you

And I pray to God
That there's more that we can do, yeah
And I pray to God
That there's more that we can show
More that we can do, yeah

CHORUS

That I can see, a change in me
But I won't look back
Cos that's behind me
And after all,
Strong words are spoken
My heart will never be, never be
Never be broken...

CHORUS

That I can see, a change in me
But I won't look back
Cos that's behind me
And after all
Strong words are spoken
My heart will never be, never be
Never be broken...

(Arrican voices)
Let's not forget this place
Let's not neglect the our race
Let unity become
Life on earth be one

So let me take your hand
We are but grains of sand
Born throught the winds of time
Given a special sign

So let's take a stand
and look around us now, people
So let's take a stand
and look around us now, people...

Eeyeah--oh, eayeh--oh, eayeh (and the world is turning)--oh, by--yah
To a different beat
Eayeh--oh, eayeh--oh, eayeh (and the world is turning)--oh, by yah
(to a different beat)

Humanity's lost face
Let's understand its grace
Each day one at a time
Each life including mine

So let's take a stand
and look around us now, people oh, people oh people!

CHORUS

I've seen the rain, fall in Africa
I've touched to snow of Alaska
(Oh tell me now...)
I've felt the mists of Niagara
Now I believe...
In you..

repeat CHORUS twice

How far we've come
and how far to go
rain does not fall
on one roof alone..(to a different beat)..

Smile, an everlasting smile
A smile can bring you near to me
Don't ever let me find you wrong
Cause that would bring a tear to me
This world has lost it's glory
Lets start a brand new story
Now my love
You think that I don't even mean
A single word I say...

It's only words
And words are all I have
To take your heart away

Talk, in everlasting words
And dedicate them all, to me
And I will give you all my life
I'm here if you should call to me
You think that I don't even mean
a single word I say...

CHORUS, repeat

Da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da

This world has lost it's glory
Let's start a brand new story
Now, my love
You think that I don't even mean
a single word I say...

repeat CHORUS twice

It's not time to make a change
Just relax--take it easy
You're still young--that's your fault
There's so much you have to know
Find a girl, settle down
If you want, you can marry
Look at me--I am old
But I'm happy

I was once like you are now
And I know that it's not easy
To become when you've found
Something going on
But take your time--think a lot
Think of everthing you've got
For you will still be here tomorrow
But your dreams may not...

How can I try to explain?
When I do--it turns away again
And it's always been the same
Same old story
From the moment I could talk
I was ordered to listen
Now there's a way, and I know
That I have to go away
I know, I have to go...

It's not time to make a change
Just sit down
and take it slowly
You're still young--that's your fault
There's so much you have to go through
Find a girl, settle down
If you want, you can marry
Look at me--I am old
But I'm happy

All the times, that I've cried
Keeping all the things I knew inside
And it's hard
But it's harder to ignore it

If they were right--I'd agree
But it's them--they know
Not me That I have to go away
I know, I have to go.

I've heard it before
And you're telling me no, and I'm crazy
We're talking too fast
We've just got to take it nice and slow
Sit back let it flow now

Don't be misunderstood
When baby, maybe, you know...

We're gonna be so good
Like I knew we would
Like only we could
Come on and hear me now
Gonna be so good
Cos it's understood
Like I knew we should
So good now, baby...

No matter the cost
When we're out on the town
Getting lazy
I'll show you who's boss
We're just gonna take it all away
No matter what they say now

Be so good
Be so good now

CHORUS

So good
Cos it's understood
You know we're good...

"Weeks, day, hours, minutes
('till I'll be home)."

A kiss on the cheek in the old town park
Carved your name in the shape of a heart
Walked together, hand in hand
I didn't feel the rain

And there's a picture, girl
That hangs inside my mind
And there's a letter, girl
Saying I'm doing fine
And there's a picture, girl
That hangs inside my mind
And there's a letter, girl
Saying I'm doing fine

And I'm coming home now
It's been so long now
Gonna get there somehow
Praying you'll be there
And I'm coming home now
it's been so long now
Gonna get there somehow
Praying you'll be there

"Weeks, days ('till I'll be home)".

Children on the street still playing their games
Smiles on their faces have never changed
I hope it's all the same
I didn't leave in vain

And there's a picture, girl
That hangs inside my mind
And there's a letter, girl
Saying I'm doing fine
And there's a picture, girl
That hangs inside my mind
And there's a letter, girl
Saying I'm doing fine (on my way...)

And I'm coming home now
It's been so long now
Gonna get there somehow
Praying you'll be there
Coming home now
It's been so long now
Gonna get there somehow
And this is where I'll stay...

(Dear the close ones
I remember seeing
Here in my heart and overseas
I feel you close and not so far
Soon we'll be together
And this time, it's forever)

Coming home now
Been so long now
Gonna get there somehow
Praying you'll be there...

(--to fade--)

You're the key to my life...

Rain on the window covers the trace
Of all the tears that I've had to waste
And now I'm missing you so
And I won't let you go away
Stain on the desktop where coffee cups lay
And memories of you forever will stay
And the scent of your perfume
And the smile on your face will remain...

And I never gave up hope when things got me down
But I just bit on my lip and my face began to frown
Cos that was just my pride and I've nothing else to hide
And now the way is clear and all I want to say is..

All of my life the doors have been closed now
And all of my dreams have been locked up inside
But you came along and captured my heart, girl
You're the key to my life
Yeah

Year after year, was blaming myself (blaming myself..)
For what I'd done, just thought of myself
I know that you'll understand (you'll understand...)
This was all my own fault, don't go away..

And I never gave up hope when things got me down
But I just bit on my lip
And my face began to frown
Cos that was just my pride and I've nothing left to hide
And now the way is clear and all I want to say is...

CHORUS

Girl you know that I feel for you
There ain't nothing that I wouldn't do
Stop the thunder and the pouring rain
You're the one that's going to stop the pain
Girl you know that I feel for you
There ain't nothing that I wouldn't do
Stop the thunder and the pouring rain
Listen to me can't you hear what I say...

CHORUS

Girl when you hold me
How you control me
You bend and you fold me
Any way you please

It must be easy for you
To love the things that you do
But just a pastime for you
I could never be

And I never know, girl
If I should stay or go
Cos the games that you play
Are driving me away...

Don't love me for fun, girl
Let me be the one, girl
Love me for a reason
Let the reason be love
Don't love me for fun, girl
Let me be the one, girl
Love me for a reason
Let the reason be love

Kisses and caresses
Are only minor tests, babe
Of love turned to stresses
Between a woman and a man
So if love everlasting
Isn't what you're asking
I'll have to pass, girl
I'm proud to take a stand

I can't continue guessing
Because it's only messing
With my pride, and my mind
So write down this time to time

CHORUS

I'm just a little old-fashioned
It takes more than a physical attraction
My initial reaction is
Honey give me a love
Not a fascimile of

CHORUS to fade

When the going gets tough
The tough get going, tough, tough, huh, huh, huh
When the going gets tough, the tough gets ready

Yeah, ooooh, du da do da

I got something to tell you
I got something to say
I'm gonna put this dream in motion
Never let nothing stand in my way

When the going gets tough
The tough gets going

I'm gonna get myself 'cross the river
That's the price I'm willing to pay
I'm gonna make you stand and deliver
And give me love in the old-fashioned way

Darlin', I'll climb any mountain
Darlin', I'll do anything

Ooh, can I touch you (can I touch you)
And do the things that lovers do
Ooh, wanna hold you (wanna hold you)
I gotta get it through to you, oooh

When the going gets tough
The tough gets going
When the going gets rough
The tough gets rough
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Ooooh baby

I'm gonna buy me a one-way ticket
Nothing's gonna hold me back
Your love's like a slow train coming (slow train coming)
And I feel it coming down the track (woah)

Darlin', I'll climb any mountain
Darlin', I'll do anything

Ooh (ooh) can I touch you (can I touch you)
And do the things that lovers do
Ooh, (ooh) wanna hold you (wanna hold you)

And do the things that lovers do (can I touch you)
Oooh, wanna hold you (wanna hold you)
I gotta get it through to you

When the going gets tough
Going gets tough
Going gets rough
Going gets rough...(to fade)

I cried a tear
You wiped it dry
I was confused
You cleared my mind
I sold my soul
You bought it back for me
And held the earth
You gave me dignity
Somehow you needed me

You gave me strength
To stand alone again
To face the world
Out on my own again
You put me high
Upon a pedestal
So high that I could almost see eternity
You needed me
You needed me

I can't believe it's you
I can't believe it's you
I needed you
And you were there
And I'll never leave, why should I leave?
I needed you
I finally found someone who really cares

(You needed me)

You held my hand
It was cold
And I was lost
You took me home
You gave me love
That I was at the end
I turned my life
Back into truth again You even called me 'friend'

You gave me strength
To stand alone again
To face the world
Out on my own again
You put me high
Upon a pedestal
So high that I could almost see eternity
You needed me
You needed me

You needed me
You needed me
Oh, yes, you needed me
You needed me

I know you're feeling kind of nervous
'Cause we're finally all alone
I know you've had some other lovers
And they left you kind of cold
And so you built a fortress so mighty high and hopeless
Takes a lot of time to make walls crumble
Stone by stone i'd make them tumble for you

'Cause I've got all the time in the world
All my life for you girl
Now the timin' is right, baby we got all night
Lay right here by my side, take your dreams for a ride
Love's like sand making pearls
And I've got all the time in the world

I know it's hard to let me love you
When my trust is on the line
I know it takes a lot of courage
When your faith is hard to find
I'd never try to hurt you
Fight heaven and earth to protect you
There's nothing to fear when I'm with you

CHORUS to fade

It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word, you can light up the dark
Try as I may I could never explain
What I hear when you don't say a thing
The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me whenever I fall
You say it best..when you say nothing at all

All day long I can hear people talking out loud
But when you hold me near, you drown out the crowd (the crowd)
Try as they may they can never define
What's been said between your heart and mine

{CHORUS X 2}

(You say it best when you say nothing at all
You say it best when you say nothing at all..)

The smile on your face
The truth in your eyes
The touch of your hand
Let's me know that you need me..

Chorus

(You say it best when you say nothing at all
You say it best when you say nothing at all..)

The smile on your face
The truth in your eyes
The touch of your hand
Let's me know that you need me..

(You say it best when you say nothing at all
You say it best when you say nothing at all..)

I may not need to sail the ocean
I've got no need to climb a mountain high
But there'll be no time I won't need you by my side
You can depend on my love forever
You can be sure baby, sure baby..

I'll never not want you.. (never not care)
Never not need to always be there
No I'll never stop
Loving you the way that I do
No matter what you'll do
I'll never not want you sharing my life
Never not need to feel your touch at night
No there's one thing I'll never not do
I'll never not need you..
Never not need you baby

I don't want no one else's kisses
I'll never hunger for another's touch
And there'll be no one else this heart will ever love
You can be sure I am your forever
'Cause you are my world baby,
World baby..

CHORUS

I don't need the whole world at my feet
But I will always need you loving me
You're just so much a part of me
I'll stop breathing before I'll ever stop
Needing you..

CHORUS to fade

Walk on, she's gone
Better leave the girl alone
Walk on, she's gone
Don't even call her on the telephone
Walk on, move on now
You've got to be strong, so they told me
But when I see you and my heart drops
I still remember and it won't stop
The night I kissed you on the rooftop
We reached up and touched the sky
But then you told me goodbye
Don't try to tell me that a man don't cry

Chorus

My friends they want me to forget you
Pretend I never even met you
I try to smile but I bet you
Loneliness and tears still show
One thing that nobody knows
You hold my heart and you won't let it go

Chorus

And if I get you back you'll see
All the love in me
So take my hand and
Your heart will grow stronger (heart will grow stronger)
Never, never, never let it go..

{CHORUS to fade}
