letra de Guaranteed
Don't play this game with me

you know you came to be my world

when times were bad enough

seems I was good enough

you run out my door

you come back, and beg for more and more

just like the times before

you'll always be

Guaranteed a place inside my heart

I would never forget a single thing

always be a martyr to your heart

then you'll never regret a single thing

You think I just don't care (just don't care)

the fact is, I could not bear (could not bear)

to lose this kind of loving touch (I love your touch)

would you be bothered much?

you had so much planned (so much planned)

so take time to understand (understand)

my reasons for pulling you back to me (back to me)

you'll always be

Guaranteed a place inside my heart

I would never forget a single thing

always be a martyr to your heart

then you'll never regret a single thing

You hide so many years

(hide away)

you cried so many tears

(cried away your tears)

you think I just don't realise

(now I realise)

one thing I've come to know

(if you stay)

this pain will surely go

(all the way with me)

so soon before your very eyes

Guaranteed a place inside my heart

I would never forget a single thing

always be a martyr to your heart

then you'll never regret a single thing

Guaranteed a place inside my heart

I would never forget a single thing

always be a martyr to your heart

then you'll never regret a single thing

Guaranteed ...

letra de Overtime
Sometimes the looks I get

from people that I've never met

it's cruel

poor hard done by you

sometimes I hear remarks

like he's a snake out in the grass

it's cruel

poor hard done by you

Well I beat around the bush a lot

don't let my feelings show

'cause if I did I'd surely hit the roof

maybe if you'd listened

you'd've known something was missing

what I say surely is the truth

Well I've been working on this overtime

you might think that I don't care

but if you look inside this heart of mine

you'll still be there

Some lovers won't admit

that all the pieces just won't fit

it's cruel

poor hard done by you

so tell me that I'm blind

to let my heart go rule my mind

it's cruel

poor hard done by you

Well I've been working on this overtime

you might think that I don't care

but if you look inside this heart of mine

you'll still be there

I've been working on this overtime

what's been done I can't repair

but if you look inside this heart of mine

you'll still be there

My wanderlust betrayed your trust

don't want forgiving

all things must change, it ain't so strange

life's for the living

(baby baby please)

I've been working on this overtime

you might think that I don't care

but if you look inside this heart of mine

you'll still be there

I've been working on this overtime

what's been done I can't repair

but if you look inside this heart of mine

you'll still be there

I've been working on this overtime

you might think that I don't care

but if you look inside this heart of mine

you'll still be there

poor hard done by you

letra de Her Big Day
Too bad about the weather

but something even badder's gonna spoil her big day

he stands by the mirror

feelin' he's gone fifteen rounds with Cassius Clay

He hears a cockney classic

get me to the church on time - those stupid Bow Bells

she's dressed just like an angel

but very soon her heaven's gonna turn into hell

She knew all along it was wrong and she'd

better, better, better, better give it up

with a love so strong, had to carry on

better, better, better, better live it up

Church yard, he's in the bushes

nervous looking people say he must be delayed

they drive around in circles

she can see her big day slowly slippin' away

Down by the river, sanctuary (papa's snipeing, mama's wiping)

(tears away ... tears away)

deep inside, her father's happy (people leaving, disbelievin')

perfect irony

Better, better, better, better give it up

She knew all along it was wrong and she'd

better, better, better, better give it up

with a love so strong, had to carry on

better, better, better, better live it up

You could knock her down with a feather

you could knock her way on, way on

you could knock her down with a feather

you could knock her way on, way on down

Who cares about the weather

'cause something so much better happened after that day

guess what? they're together

the best man put the bride up in the family way

letra de Seven Years
There's thunder rolling in your eyes

it's raining in your heart

what lies around the corner

you have seen an hundred times

but you never thought anything like it would happen to you

baby's gone

he walked out on you

Seven years have come and gone

all that time for you

and now both our hearts must beat the drum

to a different tune

send all those dreams away baby

You can lose yourself in yourself

hurt yourself a little more

turn the key and hate the boy

forget a soul in distress, leave the real world to others

that's not the way he's coming back ever again

baby's gone

now what are you gonna do

Seven years have come and gone

all that time for you

and now both our hearts must beat the drum

to a different tune

send all those dreams away baby

Each time I see a love, a love that's dying

I know what I would do, I know what I would do

but you can't see 'cause your heart is the way girl you're blinded

and its hurting so bad, and its hurting so bad

he's so gone, gone away and you can't find him

was there ever a day, just one day you were happy

believe in the power of love everlasting

to the end of all time, to the end of all time

In a funny way I don't feel sorry, you're getting what you served

just you remember very well the lesson you have learned

and its August now, your seven years are gone

all that time for you

Send all those dreams away baby

Set Me UpVer letra 4:28

letra de Set Me Up
Well a thing was said to me

time's your enemy

it may heal a wound, but it won't hide a scar

and the only thing to do

is to yourself be true

'cause a head that's in the clouds won't see the stars

When I was young I never walked away

I'd nail my colours to the wall

though black and white soon turned to shades of grey

there is one thing that I really know for sure

Nobody's gonna set me up

nobody's gonna set me up

There's a bitterness in you

'cause all you ever do

is to drag your spirit screaming to the floor

but you gotta make your luck

before your time is up

and they take you in your box out through the door

But I'm not saying I don't care at all

I'd rescue you before you drown

but if behind my back they start to talk

I'm a tougher kind of man this time around

Nobody's gonna set me up

nobody's gonna set me up

When you look back and see what you have done

well was it really that much fun

to laugh and kick the fallen ones

Gonna grow another skin

this one's getting thin

I've been bitten twice but never lost my nerve

well you gotta hide the hurt

when people dish the dirt

'cause if you don't try nothing that's what you deserve

There are people with their eyes of green

smiling when you take a fall

maybe a friend or someone never seen

but even with my back against the wall

Nobody's gonna set me up

nobody's gonna set me up

People said to me

time's your enemy

it may heal a wound, but it won't hide a scar

Nobody's gonna set me up

nobody's gonna set me up

And the only thing to do

is to yourself be true

'cause a head that's in the clouds won't see the stars

The ApeVer letra

[X]
letra de The Ape
Blue seas red summers

long years in slumber

deaf ears hear thunder

dump lips speak wonders

Red eyes burning through the night

giant wings rise up in flight

on the dark earth choked with life

nature's creature stands upright

See the beast upon the land

kneeling in the burning sand

and his heart beats in his hand

Dead seas long summers

lost years in slumber

blind eyes seek wonders

old hearts beat thunder

letra de If You Were Mine
I been waiting here for so long

counting all the holes in my shoes

you've been singing such a different song

I ain't gonna punch you in the eye

just 'cause you tell a crazy lie

Even so ...

I knew how you would go ...

I'm always the last to know you're trying to love me too

You've been wasting so much time away

never seem to get through to you

you've been lazy now it's time to pay

who's gonna be the one to say who's gonna make the move today

I won't stand by ...

asking you questions why ...

not while you say you're too shy to look me in the eye ...

If you were mine

I'd never need to wipe the smile from my face

it ain't no crime

what we'd achieve if we stayed in this place

You said once I had a hold on you

and I believed you first time around

but now you don't know what you're trying to do

so when you turn around and realise

I'm not around to dry your eyes

Then you'll know ...

it's crazy to let me go ...

you're always the last to know

I'm trying to love you too ...

If you were mine

I'd never need to wipe the smile from my face

it ain't no crime

what we'd achieve if we stayed in this place

If you kept your promise baby

everything would stay the same

but I can't shake the feeling you're searching maybe

for another love to blame

If you were mine

I'd never need to wipe the smile from my face

it ain't no crime

what we'd achieve if we stayed in this place

letra de Lasso the Moon
She carries the water from the well in the morning

while the sand burns her feet the sun only stares

and the loneliness lingers with slow grasping fingers

as the afternoon withers the flowers in her hair

Then night fills the sky as she sits on the hillside

and memories drift by like clouds past the stars

recalling romances and all the bright chances

but none of them lasted. they passed through her heart

And she says -

where is a man who can build a good fire

with a passion as wide as the sky at high noon

a man whose hand is strong as his longing

where is the man who can lasso the moon

She falls asleep and her dreams are her blanket

and she shares with the moon the secret she knows

as the dawn leaves its tears to wash the dry valley

the tears of a woman can wash a man's soul

And she says -

where is a man who can build a good fire

with a passion as wide as the sky at high noon

a man whose hand is strong as his longing

where is the man who can lasso the moon

And she says -

where is a man who can build a good fire

with a passion as wide as the sky at high noon

a man whose hand is strong as his longing

where is the man who can lasso the moon

and I say -

I am a man who can build a good fire

and my passion's as wide as the sky at high noon

come take my hand, it's as strong as your longing

just say the word and I'll lasso the moon

letra de With a Little Love
Would you like to see a world where no one ever hurts

live among a people where compassion is the word

never see the tears of a thousand children falling on the dirt

never hear the cry of a nation's people who's voice will not be heard

Calling out an engineer to save the planet earth

calling all the dreamers who can help me build a world

Don't want it [x6]

Listen to the voices of a god before your time

it has all the answers to the questions you might find

with a little love the hardest heart can be opened to the light

with a little love the darkest heart can be opened to the light

With a little love ...

Calling out an engineer to save the planet earth

calling all the dreamers who can help me build a world

Don't want it [x6]

With a little love ... [x4]
