Lyrics

1. IF IT AIN'T GONNA CHANGE

I Ain't got a lot to say
And I don't like this game you're playing
I really need you baby
What I thought could be forever
Now I realize will never
Ever be the same again

And I know
That I have to regret
When you go
And there's no one instead

If it ain't gonna change
I'll be loosing my mind
The way to your heart
Is so hard to find
I it ain't gonna change
And if you won't be back some day
I can't carry on
If it ain't gonna change some day

Hey girl you hold the key
To unlock me from these chains
If there's a chance that we can make it
Then why don't we just take it baby
It could be so easy you see
And I know
All the things that I said
When you go
It's too late to regret

Chorus

Now tell me do I ever cross your mind
Do you think of me
You're gonna give me all your love right now
That's all I need oh yeah

Girl you know
There's a place in my heart we could go
We could start from the start

Chorus


2. I'LL BE THERE

Nothing is simple
There's no perfect cure
Don't take for granted
What some take for sure
There are no heroes
And even no wonderland
This is for real babe
It's no farytale
Sometimes to easy to go off the rails
I'll give you comfort when you're feeling cold
One you can run to when there's no hands to hold

I'll be there when it's closing in
I'll be there try to keep you from falling
Take you into my temple of dreams
Now and then when it seems
That there's not enough love to go round

This is our world
This is insane
Life passing by
Just like a runaway train
Now we're just traveling
On a ship of fools
These are the times
Days of no trust
Love turns to hatred and diamonds to dust
I'll be a shelter be your compagny
Whenever you're lonely you can lean on me

I'll be there when it's closing in
I'll be there try to keep you from falling
Take you into my temple of dreams
Now and then when it seems
That there's not enough love to go round


3. FAR FAR AWAY (SLADE COVER)

I've seen the yellow lights go down the Mississippi
I've seen the bridges of the world and they are for real/
I've had a red light off-the-wrist without me even getting kissed
It still seems so unreal

I've seen the morning in the mountains of Alaska
I've seen the sunset in the East and in the West /
I've sang the glory that was Rome And passed the 'Hound Dog' singer's home
It still seems for the best

And I'm far, far a-way
With my head up in the clouds
And I'm far, far a-way
With my feet down in the crowds
Letting loose around the world
But the call of home is loud
Still as loud

I've seen the Paris lights from high upon Montmartre
And felt the silence hanging low in No Man's Land
And though those Spanish nights were fine It wasn't only from the wine
It still seems all in hand

And I'm far, far away, &c...

I've seen the yellow lights go down the Mississippi
The Grand Bahama Island stories carry on
And though those aligator smiles Stay in your memory for a while
There still seems more to come

And I'm far, far away &c...
