Sarah McLachlan - Building A Mystery Lyrics

Sarah McLachlan - Building A Mystery Video

You come out at night
That's when the energy comes
And the dark side's light
And the vampires roam
You strut your rasta wear
And your suicide poem
And a cross from a faith that died
Before Jesus came
You're building a mystery
 
You live in a church
Where you sleep with voodoo dolls
And you won't give up the search
For the ghosts in the halls
You wear sandals in the snow
And a smile that won't wash away
Can you look out the window
Without your shadow getting in the way?
 
You're so beautiful
With an edge and charm
And so careful
When I'm in your arms
 
Cause you're working
Building a mystery
Holding on and holding it in
Yeah you're working
Building a mystery
And choosing so carefully
 
You woke up screaming aloud
A prayer from your secret god
But you feed off our fears
And hold back your tears, oh
You give us a tantrum
And a know it all grin
Just when we need one
When the evening's thin
 
You're so beautiful
A beautiful fucked-up man
You're setting up your
Razor-wire shrine
 
Cause you're working
Building a mystery
Holding on and holding it in
Yeah you're working
Building a mystery
And choosing so carefully
 
Ooh you're working
Building a mystery
Holding on and holding it in
Yeah you're working
Building a mystery
And choosing so carefully
 
Yeah you're working
Building a mystery
Holding on and holding it in
Yeah you're working
Building a mystery
And choosing so carefully
 
You're building a mystery

Roxette - I'm Sorry Lyrics

Roxette - I'm Sorry Video

The first time we met time stood still
You left me breathless
Suddenly spechless
Within the hour we were one
Two total strangers kissing the moonlight
 
Oh, you know I'm sorry I had to go
I'm really sorry it had to die
I'm really sorry I made you cry
Cry
 
We fell in love between the nights
Of too many lovers and too many teardrops
And fate won't resist some satin sheets
I was so helpless
Totally ruthless
 
Oh, you know I'm sorry I had to go
I'm really sorry you're hurt inside
I'm really sorry I made you cry
Cry, cry
 
Love is lifting you up and draggin' you down
Makes you go round and round and round
Time makes a stop then it's all gone
Funny how memories keep lingering on
 
Oh, you know I'm sorry I had to go
I'm really sorry it had to die
I'm really sorry I made you cry
 
Oh, you know I'm sorry I had to go
I'm really sorry you're hurt inside
I'm really sorry I made you cry
Cry, cry

Richard Marx - I'm Never Gonna Fall In Love Again Lyrics

Richard Marx - I'm Never Gonna Fall In Love Again Video

I've been in love so many times.
I thought I knew the score,
But now you've treated me so wrong.
I can't take any more.
 
And it looks like
I'm never gonna fall in love again.
 
All those things I heard about you,
I thought they were only lies,
But when I caught you in his arms,
I just broke down and cried.
 
And it looks like
I'm never gonna fall in love again.
Fall in love.
I'm never gonna fall in love,
Fall in love again.
 
I gave my heart so easily.
I cast aside my pride,
But when you fell for someone else, baby,
I broke up all inside.
 
And it looks like
I'm never gonna fall in love again.
 
That's why I'm singing,
Fall in love,
I'm never gonna fall in love.
Please don't make me
Fall in love again!

Ratt - Givin' Yourself Away Lyrics

Ratt - Givin' Yourself Away Video

You say you don't want me
You say you don't care
You say that your heart
Ain't got no room for me there
You say you don't need me
But I know that it's just a lie
'Cause when you call me in the night
Tellin' me your life is better off without me
How come you're sleepin' all alone
Tellin' me you don't ever think about me...
 
Hey, you're givin' yourself away
It's there in every move you make
You can't hide your heartache away
Hey, it's somethin' you don't have to say
It's written in the tears on your face
I see through the part that you play
Your givin' yourself away...
Your givin' yourself away...
It doesn't matter what you say
Your givin' yourself away...
Your givin' yourself away...
 
So you got all your freedom
And you got all your time
So you got the illusion that your doin' fine
So you smile in the mirror
Through the sadness your smile can't disguise
Why don't you come right out and say
Baby you can't take another day without me
You know I'm runnin' through your blood
You need me like a drug and you can't live without me...
 
Hey, you're givin' yourself away
It's there in every move you make
You can't hide your heartache away
Hey, it's somethin' you don't have to say
It's written in the tears on your face
I see through the part that you play
Your givin' yourself away...
Your givin' yourself away...
It doesn't matter what you say
Your givin' yourself away...
Your givin' yourself away...
 
And when you call me in the night
Tellin' me your life is better off without me
I know that you're lyin' there alone
Baby cause I know you can't live without me

R. Kelly - Tempo Slow Lyrics

R. Kelly - Tempo Slow Video

What's up baby
I know what you're thinking
What did I call you over here for
I wanna take you somewhere
 
Chorus
Tempo slow, lights down low
Let me take you to a place
Where only love grooves go
 
Step into my territory
And let the vibes begin
Don't be afraid
Just let this love groove in
Let the passion lead you to a place beyond
Exploring my bedroom, having freaky fun
 
Chorus
 
All the players go
All the gangstas go
 
Chorus
 
Rules they are so simple, so very simple
As our bodies connect
And those juices start to flow
Makin' sweet love 'til the morning light
And satisfying love's appetite
 
Chorus (2x's)
 
Baby tell Daddy what it is you want
Come on and unravel those little secrets unknown
Time to taste what love has in store for me
So let's take a sip of this love groove chemistry
 
Chorus (3x's)

Prince - Purple Rain Lyrics

Prince - Purple Rain Video

I never meant to cause you any sorrow
I never meant to cause you any pain
I only wanted one time to see you laughing
I only wanted to see you laughing in the purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
I only wanted to see you bathing in the purple rain
 
I never wanted to be your weekend lover
I only wanted to be some kind of friend
Baby I could never steal you from another
It's such a shame our friendship had to end
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
I only wanted to see you underneath the purple rain
 
Honey, I know, I know, I know times are changing
It's time we all reach out for something new, that means you too
You say you want a leader, but you can't seem to make up your mind
I think you better close it, and let me guide you to the purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain (If you know what I'm singin' about up here, c'mon, raise your hand)
Purple rain, purple rain
I only want to see you, only want to see you in the purple rain

Pop Evil - 100 In A 55 Lyrics

Pop Evil - 100 In A 55 Video

Turn back on the broken heartache
Some things are just meant to be
I still believe that we got a chance
Still believe that we got a chance to be
Too much is never enough and
Too little is never enough
Full speed got me looking out my rear view
I can't go back
 
Chorus:
Goin' 100 in a 55 and I don't know why I'm still alive but I
Do what I can but I know I can't take anymore
I still believe in this rock and roll
And I pray the music gonna save my soul
But till then I still believe some things are just meant to be
 
It's messed up but I got this mission
Drunk again wont remember anyway
She said it's just a game boy
Don't be gone don't be gone for long
Ten years I've been doing this forever
Its all I know baby please don't turn away
I know you don't believe in me
But I do believe in you
 
I'm still falling
Away from here
Away from here
I'm still falling
The wings are falling off
I can't go back
I'm in too deep
 
I still believe
Some things are just meant to be

Phil Collins - Both Sides Of The Story Lyrics

Phil Collins - Both Sides Of The Story Video

'Though we might hate to admit it, there are always two sides to every story...'
 
Find yourself in the gutter in a lonely part of town
Where death waits in the darkness with a weapon to cut some stranger down
Sleeping with an empty bottle, he's a sad and an empty hearted man
All he needs is a job, and a little respect, so he can get out while he can
 
We always need to hear both sides of the story
 
A neighbourhood peace is shattered it's the middle of the night
Young faces hide in the shadows, while they watch their mother and father fight
He says she's been unfaithful, she says her love for him has gone
And the brother shrugs to his sister and says looks like it's just us from now on
 
We always need to hear both sides of the story
 
And the lights are all on, the world is watching now
People looking for truth, we must not fail them now
Be sure, before we close our eyes
Don't walk away from here
'til you hear both sides
 
Here we are all gathered in what seems to be the centre of the storm
Neighbours once friendly now stand each side of the line that has been drawn
They've been fighting here for years, but now there's killing on the streets
While small coffins are lined up sadly, now united in defeat
 
We always need to hear both sides of the story
 
And the lights are all on, the world is watching now
People looking for truth, we must not fail them now
Be sure, before we close our eyes
Don't walk away from here
'til you see both sides
 
White man turns the corner, finds himself within a different world
Ghetto kid grabs his shoulder, throws him up against the wall
He says would you respect me if I didn't have this gun
'cos without it, I don't get it, and that's why I carry one
 
We always need to hear both sides of the story

Pet Shop Boys - I Don't Know What You Want But I Can't Give It Any More Lyrics

Pet Shop Boys - I Don't Know What You Want But I Can't Give It Any More Video

(Tennant/Lowe)
 
Did you get what you want?
Do you know what it is?
Do you care?
Is he better than me?
Was it your place or his?
Who was there?
Did you think it was wrong?
Do you find that it's worse than it was?
Has it gone on too long?
Do you mind that it hurts me?
Because
You're breaking my heart
 
I don't know what you want
But I can't give it any more
I don't know what you want
But I can't give it any more
You're breaking my heart
 
Was it cracking the code
Or just filling in time?
Was that all?
So then why'd you go back
To the scene of the crime?
Did he call?
Shall I take further blame
Or another assault on how it was
Then we'll get to the fact
That it's always my fault just
Because
You're breaking my heart
 
I don't know what you want
But I can't give it any more
I don't know what you want
But I can't give it any more
You're breaking my heart
I don't know what you want
But I can't give it any more
I don't know what you want
But I can't give it any more
You're breaking my heart
 
Don't know what you want
Don't know what you want
