Shine a Little Love
Although the things you´ve done I wouldn´t criticize
I guess you had your way
You see, I gotta make you understand
I know it sounds a foolish thing to say
But it don´t matter baby, ´cos today´s another dayCHORUS
You shine a little love on my life
You shine a little love on my life
You shine a little love on my life
And let me see
Remember, tonight we´re gonna run ´till dawn
Remember, tonight we´re gonna say
We´ll never stop, we got a good thing goin´ on
I know you´ve heard it all before
But I really need you darlin´ every day I need you more
REPEAT CHORUS
Can you understand (yes, I understand)
Can you feel it´s right (I know it is)
Will you be the same (I´ll do it all again)
It´s been a year now and it´s getting so much better
You came home without a word
Though everybody said you´ll soon forget her
They couldn´t see and they just didn´t understand
And lookin´ in the mirror there were fools at either hand
REPEAT CHORUS
Can you understand (yes, I understand)
Can you feel it´s right (I know it is)
Will you be the same (I´ll do it all again)
How many days had I been waiting there to tell you
I really can´t believe
We´re walkin´ out into the world tonight
We´ll do it all again until the break of light
And the feelin´ in your heart will soon be shinin´ in your eyes
Confusion
Everywhere the sun is shining
All around the world it´s shining
But cold winds blow across your mind
Confusion -- it´s such a terrible shame
Confusion -- you don´t know what you´re saying
You´ve lost your love and you just can´t carry on
You feel there´s no one there for you to lean on
Every night you´re out there darlin´
You´re always out there runnin´
And I see that lost look in your eyes
Confusion -- I don´t know what I should do
Confusion -- I leave it all up to you
You´ve lost your love and you just can´t carry on
You feel there´s no one there for you to lean on
Dark is the road you wander
And as you stand there under
The starry sky, you feel sad inside
Confusion -- you know it´s drivin´ me wild
Confusion -- it comes as no big surprise
You´ve lost your love and you just can´t carry on
You feel there´s no one there for you to lean on
Confusion, confusion
Confusion, confusion
Need Her Love
She gives me love that I could never hope to have
She tells me that she needs me
She tells me that she´s glad
And if she goes away
I´m like someone who´s left out in the rain
I need (her love)
I need her (her love)
I need her love
She came in from the west, a summer breeze, I couldn´t rest
I had to take a fast train
To be there by her side
She made me feel so good
She made it like it should be all the time
I need (her love)
I need her (her love)
I need her love
Just when I was thinkin´ of her
She came along and made me want her
I need her love
I need her love
I need her love
If she goes away
I´m like someone who´s left out in the rain
I need (her love)
I need her (her love)
I need her love
The boats that sail, the planes that fly, she is with me
I wonder if she wonders
If this is all for real
I couldn´t stand to see
Her cry because of me, that would be sad
I need (her love)
I need her (her love)
I need her love
She tells me everything, she makes me smile, she tries to sing
But never shares her suffering
If things are going wrong
She makes it like a dream
If things are like they seem, the world is good
I need her love
I need her love
I need her love
I need her
I need her love
I need her love
The Diary of Horace Wimp
Monday:
Late again, today
He´d be in trouble though he´d say he was sorry
He´d have to hurry out to the bus
Tuesday:
Horace was so sad
He´d never had a girl that he could care for
And if he was late once more, he´d be out
Uh-oh
CHORUS
Don´t be afraid, just knock on the door
Well, he just stood there mumblin´ and fumblin´
Then a voice from above said:
"Horace Wimp, this is your life
Go out and find yourself a wife
Make a stand and be a man
And you will have a great life plan"
Wednesday:
Horace met a girl
She was small and she was very pretty
He thought he was in love, he was afraid
Uh-oh
Thursday:
Asks her for a date
The cafe down the street tomorrow evening
His head was reeling when she said
"Yes, okay"
REPEAT CHORUS
Friday:
Horace this is it
He asks the girl if maybe they could marry
When she says "gladly," Horace cries
Boo-hoo
Sunday:
Everybody´s at the church
When Horace rushes in and says
"Now here comes my wife for the rest of my life"
And she did
Don´t be afraid, just knock on the door
Well, he just stood there mumblin´ and fumblin´
Then a voice from above said:
"Horace Wimp, this is your wife
Go out and find yourself a life
Make a stand and be a man
And you will have a great life plan"

Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Sunday
Last Train to London
It was 9:29
9:29, back street, big city
The sun was going down
There was music all around
It felt so right
It was one of those nights
One of those nights
When you feel the world stop turnin´
You were standing there
There was music in the air
I should have been away
But I knew I had to stay
CHORUS
Last train to London, just headin´ out
Last train to London, just leavin´ town
But I really want tonight to last forever
I really wanna be with you
Let the music play on down the line tonight
It was one of those nights
One of those nights
When you feel the fire is burning
Everybody was there
Everybody to share
It was so right
There you were on your own
Lookin´ like you were the only one around
I had to be with you
Nothin´ else that I could do
I should have been away
But I knew I had to stay
REPEAT CHORUS
Underneath a starry sky
Time was still but hours must really have rushed by
I didn´t realize
But love was in your eyes
I really should have gone
But love went on and on
REPEAT CHORUS
But I really want tonight to last forever
I really wanna be with you
Let the music play on down the line tonight
Midnight Blue
I see the lonely road that leads so far away
I see the distant lights that left behind the day
But what I see is so much more than I can say
And I see you in midnight blue
I see you cryin´ now you´ve found a lot of pain
And what you´re searchin´ for can never be the same
But what´s the difference ´cos they say "What´s in a name?"
And I see you in midnight blue
CHORUS
I will love you tonight
And I will stay by your side
Lovin´ you, I´m feelin´ midnight blue
(Midnight blue)
I see you standing there, far out along the way
I want to touch you, but the night becomes the day
I count the words that I am never gonna say
And I see you in midnight blue
REPEAT CHORUS
Can´t you feel the love that I´m offering you
Can´t you see how it´s meant to be
Can´t you hear the words that I´m saying to you
Can´t you believe like I believe
It´s only one and one, it´s true
Still I see you in midnight blue
(Midnight blue)
I see beautiful days
And I feel beautiful ways of loving you
Everything´s midnight blue
On the Run
Whatever I do
Wherever I go
The same afterglow
Is keepin´ me low
Don´t wanna lose it
But don´t wanna stay here too long
They see you go by
I tell you no lie
You´re up in the sky
Make everyone cry
Don´t wanna lose it
But don´t wanna stay around here
CHORUS
I´m on the run again, I´m on the run again
But it´s like what they say
When it happens this way
You gotta do it again and again
I hear them talkin´ and they go on and on
They think that nothing is wrong
And so they just carry on about you
Don´t wanna lose it
But I gotta move out of here
I see them waiting there for most of the day
I know you asked them to stay
But they just won´t go away
Don´t wanna lose it
But I gotta do it again
REPEAT CHORUS
I know it ain´t real
But when you are near
You´re saying the things
That I wanna hear
Don´t wanna lose it
But I gotta do it again
REPEAT CHORUS
REPEAT CHORUS
Run around, gotta go, gotta run around
Run around, gotta go, gotta run
Run around, gotta go, gotta runaround
Run around, gotta go, gotta run
Woman, I gotta move around
Woman, I gotta get away
Woman, I gotta move around
Wishing
Little darlin´, don´t you cry
You know I´ll try and be there with you by-and-by
When everything is going wrong, now don´t you cry
I´m wishin´
Little darlin´, far away
I see the world go rollin´ by my window pane
But I can only wish that I was there again
I´m wishin´
CHORUS
I wish that everything was gold
I wish you were here to hold
I´m wishin´
Little darlin´, the night is long
I thought I´d be back now, I must have got it wrong
You and California call me in this song
I´m wishin´
REPEAT CHORUS
Little darlin´, I see you
You´re cryin´ in the sun, I gotta be with you
I´m gonna be there soon, I´ll make it all come true
I´m wishin´
Little darlin´, I´m wishin´
You know I´m wishin´
I´m always wishin´
Don't Bring Me Down
You got me runnin´ goin´ out of my mind
You got me thinkin´ that I´m wastin´ my time
Don´t bring me down, no, no, no, no, no
I´ll tell you once more before I get off the floor:
Don´t bring me down
You wanna stay out with your fancy friends
I´m tellin´ you it´s got to be the end
Don´t bring me down, no, no, no, no, no
I´ll tell you once more before I get off the floor:
Don´t bring me down
CHORUS
Don´t bring me down, grroosss
Don´t bring me down, grroosss
Don´t bring me down, grroosss
Don´t bring me down
