Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day
you gave it away
This year
to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day
you gave it away
This year
to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Once bitten and twice shy
I keep my distance
but you still catch my eye
Tell me baby
do you recognize me
Well it's been a year
it doesn't surprise me
Happy Christmas
I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying
I love you I meant it
Now I know
what a fool I've been
But if you kissed me now
I know you'd fool me again
Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day
you gave it away
This year
to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day
you gave it away
This year
to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
A crowded room
friends with tired eyes
I'm hiding from you
and your soul of ice
my god, I thought you were
someone to rely on
Me I guess
I was a shoulder to cry on
A face on a lover
with a fire in her heart
A man under cover
but you tore me apart
Aha Woohoo
Now I've found a real love
you'll never fool me again
Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day
you gave it away
This year
to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day
you gave it away
This year
to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
A face on a lover
with a fire in her heart
A man under cover
but you tore me apart
I'll give it to someone
I'll give it to someone special

Time for bed
So i sit, and wait
For that gin and tonic
To go to your head

I know
It's a devious plan
But it's the only way that i know
To get those big bad car keys
Out of your hand

You know
That i remain a gentle man
But even so
There's only so much
A gentleman can stand
Sleep with me
Oh sleep with me tonight

My cards are on your table
My dreams are in your bed
If i was able
I'd be there instead

Sleep with me tonight

Well I guess it would be nice
If I could touch your body
I know not everybody
Has got a body like you

But I`ve got to think twice
Before I give my heart away
And I know all the games you play
Because I play them too

Oh but I
Need some time off from that emotion
Time to pick my heart up off the floor
And when that love comes down
Without devotion
Well it takes a strong man baby
But I`m showing you the door

`Cause I gotta have faith...

Baby
I know you`re asking me to stay
Say please, please, please, don`t go away
You say I`m giving you the blues
Maybe
You mean every word you say
Can`t help but think of yesterday
And another who tied me down to loverboy rules

Before this river
Becomes an ocean
Before you throw my heart back on the floor
Oh baby I reconsider
My foolish notion
Well I need someone to hold me
But I`ll wait for something more

Yes I`ve gotta have faith...

Well I guess it would be nice
If I could touch your body
I know not everybody

One day you say you love me
The next you tell me you don't
One day you say you will
And the next you tell me you won't
Hey little baby
There ain't much point in hanging around (Yea).
One day you make me feel like your love is in my hands
One day you say you'll stay
The next you're changing your plans
Hey little baby
Ain't much point in hanging around (Yea).
Cause' if you ain't got time for me I'll find another Fantasy.

It is kind of funny that you think that
I am the boy to make you cry
I can make you happy
If only for a while
Little baby I can give you all the loving that your heart desires
If you ain't got time for me I'll find another Fantasy.

It could be the price of love
Could the price of hate
What am I guilty of
Why do you make me wait
So long I don't know your intentions.
Look to the sky's above
I am in the hands of fate
Push till it gets to shove
I have got to know for heavens sake
Is this love or invention
Baby can't you see I'll find another Fantasy.

You hang around with people who are sure to make you cry
I can make you happy if only for a while
Little baby oh, oh little baby
I can give you all the lovin' that your heart desires
If you ain't got time for me I'll find another Fantasy.

You take someone's heart
And you kick it around
Keep on picking it up
So you can watch it come down
I don't know what I am suppose to do
Why I wait for you to make up your mind
Would you please be so kind
When you know what to do I'll be in the next room
But if you make it to late I may be in the next day
Hmm...

That's all I wanted
Something special, something sacred
In your eyes
For just one moment
To be bold and naked
At your side
Sometimes I think that you'll never
Understand me
Maybe this time is forever
Say it can be

That's all you wanted
Something special, someone sacred
In your life
Just for one moment
To be warm and naked
At my side

Sometimes I think that you'll never
Understand me
But something tells me together
We'd be happy

(Baby)
I will be your father figure
(Oh baby)
Put your tiny hand in mine
(I'd love to)
I will be your preacher teacher
(Be your daddy)
Anything you have in mind
(It would make me)
I will be your father figure
(Very happy)
I have had enough of crime
(Please let me)
I will be the one who loves you
Until the end of time

That's all I wanted
But sometimes love can be mistaken
For a crime
That's all I wanted
Just to see my baby's
Blue eyed shine
This time I think that my lover
Understands me
If we have faith in each other
Then we can be
Strong

I will be your father figure
Put your tiny hand in mine
I will be your preacher teacher
Anything you have in mind
I will be your father figure
I have had enough of crime
I will be the one who loves you
Until the end of time

If you are the desert
I'll be the sea
If you ever hunger
Hunger for me
Whatever you ask for
That's what I'll be

So when you remember the ones who have lied
Who said that they cared
But then laughed as you cried
Beautiful Darling
Don't think of me

Because all I ever wanted
It's in your eyes baby, baby
And love can't lie, no...
(Greet me with the eyes of a child)
My love is always tell me to...
(Heaven is a kiss and a smile)
Just hold on, hold on
I won't let you go, my baby

I will be your father figure
Put your tiny hand in mine
I will be your preacher teacher
Anything you have in mind
I will be your father figure
I have had enough of crime
(So I am gonna love you)
Until the end of time
I will be your father
I will be your preacher
I will be your daddy
I will be the one who loves you until the end of time

Jimmy got nothing but himself a name
With a gun that he polished for a rainy day
A smile and a quote from a vigilante movie
Our boy Jimmy just blew them all away
He said it made him crazy
Twenty five years living hand to mouth
Hand to mouth, hand to mouth, hand to mouth

Sweet little baby on a big white doorstep
She needs her mother but her mother is dead
Just another hooker that the lucky can forget
Just another hooker It happens everyday
She loved her little baby
But she couldn't bear to see her living hand to mouth
Hand to mouth, hand to mouth, hand to mouth

I believe in the gods of America
I believe in the land of the free
But no one told me (No one told me)
That the gods believe in nothing
So with empty hands I pray and from day to hopeless day
They still don't see me (See me)

Everybody talks about the new generation
Jump on the wagon or they'll leave you behind
But no one gave a thought to the rest of the nation
Like to help you buddy, but I haven't got the time
Somebody shouted save me
But everybody started living hand to mouth
Hand to mouth, hand to mouth, hand to mouth

There's a big white lady on a big white doorstep
She asked her daddy and her daddy said yes
Has to give a little for the dollars that we get
Has to give a little - They say it's for the best
Somebody shouted Maybe
But they kept on living from hand to mouth
Hand to mouth, hand to mouth, hand to mouth

So she ran to the arms of America
And she kissed the powers that be
And someone told me (Someone told me)
That the gods believe in nothing so with empty hands I pray
And I tell myself One day
They just might see me...

DON'T BRING ME DOWN
DON'T BRING ME DOWN
DON'T BRING ME DOWN

I've never been one for playing games
You can move your mouth forever
But the words sound just the same
Something like, bang bang you're dead
Couldn't we just make love instead?
Say yes because it's what we do best
And I've had sucha hard day

Take me where their eyes can't find us
Without you I may as well just...

How much - do I have to say
What more - do you have to see
What will it take to make you love me?

Well you're not the first, you're not the last
You're not even the one who loves me the best
But all I think about is you

So take me where their eyes can't find us
Without you I may as well just...

So take me where their eyes can't find us
Without you I may as well just...

And I've had such a hard day

So don't bring me down

Won't you give me a break?
Somebody give me a break now!

Harsh words can get you into hot water
When people don't understand you baby
I'm always here for you
And I, and I will never bring you down, down,
down my baby

Trust me, I want you to trust me
Oh trust me
'Cause I won't bring you down

And I, and I will never bring you down, down,
down my baby

Trust me, I want you to trust me
Oh trust me
'Cause I won't bring you down
(Don't bring me down)
I won't bring you down
Do you trust me?
Yeah

Shattered dreams, Worthless years
Here am I encased inside a hollow shell
Life began, Then was done
Now I stare into a cold and empty well
The many sounds that greet our ears
The sights our eyes befall
Will open up our merging hearts
And feed our empty souls

I believe when I fall in love with you it will be forever
I believe when I fall in love this time it will be forever

Without despair, we will share
And the joys of caring will not be erased
What has been, must never end
The joys of caring will not be replaced
When the seeds of love have planted firm
They won't be hard to find
And the songs of love I sing to you
Will echo in my mind

Hey!
I believe when I fall in love with you it will be forever. I said.
I believe when I fall in love this time it will be forever.
I believe when I fall in love with you it will be forever. Yeah!
I believe when I fall in love this time it will be forever.
I believe when I fall in love with you it will be forever.
I believe when I fall in love this time it will be forever.
I believe when I fall in love with you it will be forever. Yeah!

I believe when I fall in love this time it will be forever.
You know god has answered my prayers
Won't you listen to me now
God for sure will answer my prayers
Won't you listen to me now


God will answer your prayers
Just ask him and God is sure to answer all your prayers
Oh come on and lets fall in love

Your the one that I've been waiting for
Come on lets fall in love

That you've never seen
Let's make love
Put your trust in me

Don't you listen to what they told you
Because I love you
Let me hold you
Oh

I'm not your brother
I'm not your father
Oh will you ever change your mind
I'm a gentle lover with a heart of gold
But baby you've been so unkind...oh

Sexy baby's
(Sexy baby's)
Sexy body
(Sexy body)
Keeps me guessing
With a promise
I know we can come together
But the question is
Will we ever?

Together - you and me

U are far
When i could have been your star
U listende to peaple
who scared you to death, and from my heart
당신은 내게 너무 먼 사람이에요
당신은 인연이 될 수도 있었지만
당신은 사람들 말에 귀를 귀울여
너무 겁을 먹고 내마음에서 멀어진거죠

Strange that you were strong enough
To even make a start
But you'll never find peace of mind
Till you listen to your heart
그러고도 당신이 새 삶을 다시
시작할 만큼 강인하다는게 이상하군요
하지만 당신의 마음이 이끄는 대로 살지 않는다면
당신은 마음의 평안을 찾지 못할거에요

Peaple
U can never change the way they feel
Butter let them do just what they will
For they will, if u let them
steal your heart from you

사람들
당신은 결코 그들이 생각하는 방식을 바꿀 수 없어요
그들을 그냥 내버려 두는 것이 좋을 거에요
당신의 마음을 흠치려 한다면
그들이 원하는 데로 하게 하세요

Peaple
will always make a lover feel a fool
But you knew i love you
We could have shown them all
We shoud havs seen love through
사람들은 항상 연인을 바보라고 느끼게 만들죠
하지만 그대는 내가 그대를 사랑한다는 것을 알았잖아요
우리의 사랑을 그들에게 보여줄 수도 있었어요
우린 계속 사랑해야 했어요

Fooled me with the tears in your eyes
Covered me whith kisses and lie
So goodbye
But please don't take my heart
눈가에 맺혀있는 눈물로 날 속이고
키스로 거짓을 감추었죠
그러니 이제 떠나세요
하지만 내 마음 까지 가져가진 마세요

But remember this every other kiss
That u ever give long as we both live
When u need the hand of another man
One u really can surrender with
I will wait for you like i always do
There's someting there
That can't compare with any other

하지만 이건 기억해요
우리가 살아있는 동안 당신이 하는 모든 사랑 속에서
다른 사람의 도움이 필요할때
당신이 의지할 수 있는 사람은 저라는 것을
언제나 늘 그렇듯 난 당신을 기다리겠어요
다른 사람들과 비교할 수 없는 그 무언가가 있어요

Strange taht i was wrong enough to think you 'd love me too
이상하네요 당신도 날 사랑한다고 생각한것이 나의 잘못이였다니
I guess u were kissing a fool
당신은 바보에게 키스한거에요
u must have been kissing a fool
분명히 바보에게 키스한거에요

I loved you once but look at you now
You're in somebody else's bed
I loved you once so I don't know how
You're with a man like that
You'd be better off dead
He don't care, he don't treat you right
It's not fair I still want you at night
Can't you see you made a mistake girl
He treats you like dirt and I hate it

Na na na na na na lady look at your hands
You got two fat children and a drunken man
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like your life
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like it
Ma ma ma ma baby look at your hands
You should have been my woman when you had the chance
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like your life
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like your life now

He hits you once, he hits you twice
He don't care about the blood on his hands
But that's OK 'Cause it's his wife
"It's the only she understands" he says

Say you're gonna leave him, say you're gonna try
But you're only talking
Oh I know you think I'm a young boy
But I'm good and I think we can make it

Na NA NA NA NA NA lady look at your hands
You've got two fat children and a drunken man
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like your life
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like it
Ma ma ma ma baby look at your hands
You should have been my woman when you had the chance
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like your life
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like your life now
(Don't like your guy now)

Well excuse me baby but it's making me mad
The only one you want is the only one you'll never have
It's so sad
The only one you'll never have
It's too bad Only one you'll never have

NA NA NA NA NA NA lady look at your hands
You've got two fat children and a drunken man
And I bet you don't like your life now...

Good morn or evening friends
Here's your friendly announcer
I have serious news to pass on to every-body
What I'm about to say
Could mean the world's disaster
Could change your joy and laughter to tears and pain

It's that
Love's in need of love today
Don't delay
Send yours in right away
Hate's goin' round
Breaking many hearts
Stop it please
Before it's gone too far

The force of evil plans
To make you its possession
And it will if we let it
Destroy ev-er-y-body
We all must take
Precautionary measures
If love and please you treasure
Then you'll hear me when I say

Oh that

Breaking many hearts, break-ing hearts
Stop, stop it please
Before it's gone too far, gone too far

Love's in need of love today, love's in need of love today
Don't delay, don't delay

Bring it down a little, love is very peaceful
So bring it down a little
Well, please stop it
Uh L-O-V-E love Oh,
Love's in need of love today
Don't delay
Right away
Just give the world LOVE

Why can't you do it?
Why can't you set your monkey free?
Always giving in to it -
Do you love your monkey or do you love me?
Why can't you do it?
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey?
(With a monkey, with a monkey, aye, aye, aye, uh-huh)

Oh, I count to ten
But I don't know how and I don't know when
To open my eyes
If you kiss me again
Like you did just now, like you did just then
I've had the rest, now it's time I had the best
So you tell me that you won't do anymore

Well I'd write your heart a letter
But I think you know me better
If I keep on askin' baby, maybe I'll get what I'm askin' for

Why can't you do it? Why can't you set your monkey free?
Always giving in to it -
Do you love your monkey or do you love me?
Why can't you do it?
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey?

Oh I hate your friends
But I don't know how and I don't know when
To open your eyes
Yes the monkey's back again
Do you want him now like you did back then?

I tried my best, but your head is such a mess
So I guess that I don't want you anymore
Well you say you care about me
That you just can't do without me
But you keep on dancin' baby
'Til that monkey has you on the floor

Why can't you do it? Why can't you set your monkey free?
Always giving into it
Do you love the monkey or do you love me?
Why can't you do it
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey?

Don't look now
There's a monkey on your back
Don't look now
There's a monkey on you...

Why can't you do it?
Why can't you set your monkey free?
Always giving in to it -
Do you love your monkey or do you love me?
Why can't you do it?
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey?
(With a monkey, with a monkey, aye, aye, aye, uh-huh)

Oh, I count to ten
But I don't know how and I don't know when
To open my eyes
If you kiss me again
Like you did just now, like you did just then
I've had the rest, now it's time I had the best
So you tell me that you won't do anymore

Well I'd write your heart a letter
But I think you know me better
If I keep on askin' baby, maybe I'll get what I'm askin' for

Why can't you do it? Why can't you set your monkey free?

I've had enough of danger
And people on the streets
I'm looking out for angels
Just trying to find some peace
Now I think it's time
That you let me know
So if you love me
Say you love me
But if you don't just let me go...

'Cos teacher
There are things that I don't want to learn
And the last one I had
Made me cry
So I don't want to learn to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
Because it ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Whose teacher has told him goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

When you were just a stranger
And I was at your feet
I didn't feel the danger
Now I feel the heat
That look in your eyes
Telling me no
So you think that you love me
Know that you need me
I wrote the song, I know it's wrong
Just let me go...

And teacher
There are things
That I don't want to learn
Oh the last one I had
Made me cry
So I don't want to learn to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
Because it ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Whose teacher has told him goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

So when you say that you need me
That you'll never leave me
I know you're wrong, you're not that strong
Let me go

And teacher
There are things
That I still have to learn
But the one thing I have is my pride
Oh so I don't want to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
Because there ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Who just isn't willing to try

I'm so cold
Inside
Maybe just one more try...

They used to tell me I was building a dream,
And so I follwed the mob
When there was earth to plow or guns to bare
I was always on the job.
They used to tell me I was building a dream,
With peace and glory ahead
Why should I be standing in line
Just waiting for bread

Once I built a railroad, made it run
Made it race against time
Once I built a railroad, now it's done
Brother can you spare a dime?
Once I built a tower to the sun
Brick and rivet and lime
Once I built a tower, not it's done
Brother can you spare a dime?

Once in khaki suits
Gee, we looked swell
Full of yankee Doodle De Dum
Half a million boots went slogging thru hell,
I was the kid with the drum.
Say don't zou remember, they called me AlIt was Al all the time
Say, don't zou remember I'm your pal
Buddy, can you spare a dime?

Say, don't you remember I'm your pal!

I Remember You


I remember you
you're the one who made my dreams come true
a few kisses ago

I remember you
you're the one who said I love you too
didn't you know

I remember too
a distant bell
and stars that fell
like rain out of the blue

when my life is through
and the angels ask me to recall
the thrill of them all
then I will tell them I remember you

I remember you
you're the one who made my dreams come true
a few kisses ago

I remember you
you're the one who said I love you too
didn't you know

I remember too
a distant bell
and stars that fell
like rain out of the blue
I miss you darling

when my life is through
and the angels ask me to recall
the thrill of them all
then I will tell them I remember you

Miss Sarajevo


Is there a time for keeping a distance
A time to turn your eyes away
Is there a time for keeping your head down
For getting on with your day

Is there a time for kohl and lipstick
A time for cutting hair
Is there a time for high street shopping
To find the right dress to wear

Here she comes
Heads turn around
Here she comes
To take her crown

Is there a time to walk for cover
A time for kiss and tell
Is there a time for different colors
Different names you find it hard to spell

Is there a time for first communion
A time for east 17
Is there a time to turn the mecca
Is there a time to be a beauty queen

Here she comes
Beauty plays the crown
Here she comes
Surreal in her crown

(Pavarotti)
Dici che il fiume
trova la via al mare
E come il fiume
giungerai a me
Oltre i confini
e le terre assetate
Dici che come fiume
come fiume
L'amore giunger
L'amore
E non so pi pregare
E nell'amore non so pi sperare
E quell'amore non so pi aspettare

English translation:

You say that the river
finds the way to the sea
And as the river
you'll come to me
Beyond the borders
and the thirsty lands
You say that as river
As river
Love will come
Love
And I cannot pray anymore
And I cannot hope in love anymore
And I cannot wait for love anymore

(Bono)
Is there a time for tying ribbons
A time for Christmas trees
Is there a time for laying tables
When the night is set to freeze
