Oh, yeah!
Huh!
Huh!

Walk me down to the wishin' well
Help me find that miracle
Splash that holy water on me
Drown my faith in Trinity, yeah
Oh, Lord

Little by little gonna get it I swear
One more piece of the puzzle, I'm there. Yeah
Gotta get lucky, gotta get that done
Little bit o' luck never hurt no one

Come on, take me down, down, down, down
I'm in a cold sweat
Lord, don't let me drown, drown, drown, drown
In Mother Earth's soul, yet!

Oh, yeah yeah!
Under darken skies
We'll see the light

Yeah!

Broken now, I can't help but feel
Someone cracked the seventh seal
Nothin' sacred, nothin' left unturned
When nothin's simple, then nothin's learned

So take me down to the virgin spring
Wash away my suffering, oh
Splash that holy water on me
Wash my eyes so I can see

Come on, take me down, down, down, down
I'm in a cold sweat
Yeah, don't let me drown, drown, drown, drown
In Mother Earth's soul, not yet
Lord, I think I found, found, found, found, found
My mother lode! Hey!
Oh, yeah!

Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord
Yeah! Down, down, down, down, down, down
Take me down, down, down, down, down, down
(Down, down, down, down, down, down)

Hey!

There's a time and place for everything. For everyone
We can push with all our might, but nothin's gonna come
Oh no, nothin's gonna change
An' if I ask you not to try, oh could you let it be?

I wanna hold you and say
We can't throw this all away
Tell me you won't go, you won't go
You have to hear me say

I can't stop lovin' you (Ooooo)
And no matter (Ooo-ooo-ooo) what I say or do
You know (Ooo-ooo-ooo) my heart is true, oh
(Ooo-ooo-ooo) I can't stop lovin' you

You can change your friends, your place in life
You can change your mind
We can change the things we say, and do any time
Oh no, but I think you'll find
That when you look inside your heart
Oh baby, I'll be there. Yeah!

Hold on. I'm holdin' on
Baby, just come on, come on, come on
I just wanna hear you say

I can't stop lovin' you (Ooooo)
And no matter (Ooo-ooo-ooo) what you say or do
You know (Ooo-ooo-ooo) my heart is true, oh-oh!
I can't (Ooo-ooo-ooo) stop lovin' you

Oh, I'm so twisted and tied
And all I remember, was how hard we tried
Only to surrender

(Guitar Solo)

(Ahh-ahh) And when it's over
(Ahhh-ahh) I know how it's gonna be
And true love will never die
Or, not fade away

And I can't (Ooo-ooo-ooo) stop lovin' you
And no matter (Ooo-ooo-ooo) what I say or do
You know (Ooo-ooo-ooo) my heart is true, oh
I can't (Ooo-ooo-ooo) stop lovin' you

And I know (Ooo-ooo-ooo) what I got to do
Hey Ray, what you said is true, oh
I can't (Ooo-ooo-ooo) stop lovin' you, oh no
(Ooo-ooo-ooo)

It's ok, I'll do what I want if I choose
I can take the fall, there's a choice
It's my destiny in my hands
Yeah, it's up to me

I can drive
I can shoot a gun in the streets
Score me some heroin
I can jump, be the sacrifice
Bear the cross just like Jesus Christ

And I don't wanna hear what love can do
No, I ain't gonna tell you what's right for you

Is it right, to take the easy way?
Close your eyes, get on your knees and pray
Now you're saved, by a higher voice
Givin' up, givin' up, givin' up your choice

If I'm wrong, then I'll pay for it
If I'm right, yeah you're gonna hear about it
But I'll try, yeah I'll try for it
I'll try and I'll try, 'til I'm satisfied

And I, I'm tired o' hearin' what love can do
And I, ain't gonna tell you what's right for you

I've seen the damage done
Yeah, I heard the shotgun
And felt the settin' sun on my kingdom come
Ohhh!

(Guitar Solo)

Is it right, uh, to take the easy way?
I don't know, I get down on my knees and pray
Now I'm saved, by a higher voice
Givin' up, givin' up, givin' up my choice

If I'm wrong, hey! Then I'll pay for it
If I'm right, yeah, you're gonna deal with it
'Cause I'll try, yeah I'll try for it
I'll try and I'll cry, even die for it

No, I don't wana hear what love can do
No, I, I can't tell you what's right for you
Oh, I, I, I tell you what love can do
No, I, I, I can't say when your time is through

I've seen the damage done
Oh Lord, I heard the shotgun
I felt the settin' sun on my kingdom come
Nooo!

A little thick in the bottom
But still lookin' alright, yeah

Got a pocket full o' money
Got me a long night ahead
Quick stop by the Bulldog

Oh, wham bam, oh Amsterdam (Yeah yeah yeah)

Woo! Hot damn, roll an Amsterdam (Yeah yeah yeah)

Some say money is bad for the soul
Bad for the rock, bad for the roll
Bad for the heart, bad for the brain
Bad for damn near everything, oh yeah!

Oh. Hey, it must be good for somethin'
Come on, pay the rent
(Yes)

Telephone, telefax, telefuckin' teletrash
Tell a cop, tell a friend, think we hit the stoney end
Nothin' left, nothin' right, now they want a bigger bite
Everybody wants some, everybody wants big money. Oh yeah!
They want big fat money
That's what I want, big fat money

Too much temptation, 'nuff to kill a generation
Space station, starvation, premature ejaculation
This ain't groovy, this ain't funky
It's on my back but it ain't my monkey, no! Oh yeah
Gimme some o' that big, big money
That's what I want, big fat money. Yo!
Big, big money!

(Guitar Solo)

Ow! Smoke this, eat that, my old lady's gettin' fat
High rise, high rent, before it's earned it's all been spent
Where's it gonna come from? Who's it gonna go to?
I ain't beatin', but I'm bein' eaten by money. Oh yeah
Big big money. Woo!
Now gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme!
Some o' that big money. Oh yeah

That's what I want
It's all I need
Gimme big fat money
Yeah, I gotta wallet full
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme!

To love somebody naturally
To love somebody faithfully
To love somebody equally
Is not enough, it's not enough
It's not enough

To love somebody secretly (And never touch)
To love somebody honestly (And always trust)
To love somebody tenderly
The tender touch is not enough
It's not enough

Love hurts you sometimes
It's not so easy to find, no
Searchin' everywhere, you turn and swear (Ahh-ahh-ahh)
It's always been there

To love somebody foolishly (Can happen once)
To love somebody hopelessly (It hurts so much)
To love somebody equally
Is not enough, it's not enough
It's not enough

Love takes a little time
It's not so easy to find, no, no
Searchin' everywhere, you turn and swear
It's always been there

(Guitar Solo)
Standin' there....

Oh!

And if it don't come easily
One thing you must believe
You can always have trust in me
'Cause my heart will always be, yours honestly

Yeah! Love hurts you sometimes
Not so easy to find, no-oh
Searchin' everywhere, you turn and swear (Ahh-ahh-ahh)
It's always been there, standin' there
Love hurts you sometimes
It's not yours, it's not mine, no-oh
Love is only to share
You turn and swear (Ahh-ahh-ahh) it's everywhere
Standin' there (Ahh-ahh)

Oh, yeah!
Alright

I don't care 'bout the way that you're treatin' me
And I ain't cryin' about the love I been payin' for
No I ain't bitchin' 'bout the things you been puttin' down
Yeah, in my street

Oh! I ain't goin' around sayin' things about you
Lord, I can't repeat

Hey, it ain't gonna change overnight, no
And it ain't goin' away without a fight, no!

Now I ain't sayin' that I'm never gonna beg you
Oh, baby come back
Right now baby, I don't really wanna see your face
Yeah, and that's a fact

Oh, I know honey all I know is what I'm feelin' inside
Right now baby I'm alone and I'm swallowing
Lord, a lot a' pride

And it ain't gonna change overnight, no
And it ain't goin' away without a fight
Yeah!

Livin' with the aftershock
I said, "My, my, my"
Well I never thought she'd walk
But now I'm livin' with the aftershock
And it ain't gonna change
It ain't goin' away, no

(Guitar Solo)

Yeah, she opened up my eyes (Seein' what I wanna see)
She came and took me by surprise (Showed me what I hadn't seen)

Yeah, yeah, livin' with the aftershock

(Guitar Solo)

Oh, yeah!
Alright

Watch it, watch it!

Yeah, yeah, livin' with the aftershock
I said, "My, my, my"
Baby, I never thought you would
Give in and learn it from the aftershock

And it ain't gonna change
It ain't goin' away
I said, "It ain't gonna change without a fight, no"

(Guitar Solo)

Livin' with the aftershock
I'm livin' with the aftershock
Ow!

Alright
Yeah, yeah, yeah!

I thought I saw you from a distance
I swore I'd found you once again
Touched on that feelin' for an instant
Could not recall just where or when
Oh, no

Some desert island off Morocco
We had a love so hard to find
Oh, so full of life, so free and easy
Another place, another time, oh!

Take me back
I wanna be there with you
It happened just like that, yeah!
Slip in a dream or two
Come on, take me back
Oh, deja vu

One soul, one mind
One light that shines
One love so fine
Oh, come on and take me back

Some call it fate, some superstition
Some call it luck, it's all the same
Oh, just one of the mysteries of creation
Somethin' you feel but can't explain, oh!

Take me back
I wanna be there with you
It happens just like that, baby
I've fallen deep into
Oh!

(Guitar Solo)

Oh girl, do it, come on
Oh do it, take me there
Oh, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know

Come on, take me back, baby
'Cuz I swear I've been there with you
It happened just like that, wow!
Send me a dream or two
Oh, come on, take me back

Outta touch most the time
Got a lotta things on my mind
Kickin' down, but where to start
It's the hardest thing, oh Lord

Grow it long, shave it off
Life is hard, never soft
I need a change, I need it quick
Before it makes me sick

That's what's on my mind

(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
Now pay attention, watch your back
Pay your dues and stay on track
Got no room to second guess
Puts me under stress, oh Lord

(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
If I were you, if you were me
Wonder who I'd wanna be
With just one wish ya can't refuse
I wouldn't know what to choose

Yeah! Feelin'
No I don't like what I been told
I'm feelin'
Feelin', what no one else will ever know
I'm feelin'

Ohh, now! Black is white and white is black, ah!
Got politicians smokin' crack
And John Paul's all bullet proof
And it puts me through the roof, and yeah!
If I were you, and you were me
I wonder who I'd rather be
And if I had one wish I, uh, I'd take it

Feelin', oh I don't like what I been told
I'm feelin'
And I'm seein' what no one else will ever know
I'm seein'
Come on! Feelin', hey I don't understand these things
I'm feelin'
Nooo!

Yeah!

(Guitar Solo)

Yeah!
Oh, yeah!
Oh, yeah!
Uh!

Outta touch most all the time
Got too many things on my mind
Shuttin' down, I gotta stop this thing

Yeah! Feelin', no I don't like what I been told
I'm feelin'
And I'm bleedin', like no one else will ever know
I'm bleedin'
Whoa! Dealin', I'm dealin' with these things
I'm feelin'
Oh, I'm dreamin', I'm dreamin', I'm dreamin' things that show me
What I'm seein'
Yeah! Seein', I'm seein' things that don't know
What I'm feelin', yeah
Lord, I've been feelin', I'm feelin', I'm feelin' things that
I don't, I don't know, I don't know!
Lord, what I'm seein'

Yeah!
Yeah, yeah yeah

I reach across to the other side
To make contact with you
Though in slumber you fill my dreams
And I make contact with you
Don't ask me why I'm crossing over

Oh, crossing over....

I never got to really know you
The way I want to now
So many things I didn't tell you
I wanna tell you now
Tell me why, oh Lord, you're crossing over

(I gotta come back to see your face)
Oh, crossing over
(I wanna hear you call my name, feel your touch)
Reaching out, reaching out
(Hear your voice again)
(To hear your voice again)
Crossing over
(To feel your touch)
Reaching out
(To feel you)
Crossing over
(To feel)
Reaching out, reaching out
