25 years of my life and still I'm trying to get up that great big hill of hopeFor a destination I realized quickly when I knew I should That theworld was made up of this Brotherhood of man For whatever thatmeans
So I cry somethimes when I'm lying in bed To get it all out what's in myhead Then I start feeling a little peculiar So I wake in the morningand I step Outside I take deep breath I get real high Then I screamfrom the top of my lungs
What's goin' on And I say hey... And I say hey what's goin' on And I sayhey... I said hey what's goin' on
And I try, oh my God do I try I try all the time In this institution And I pray,oh my God do I pray I pray every single day For a revolution
So I cry sometimes when I'm lying in my bed To get it all out what's in myhead Then I start feeling a little peculiar So I wake in the morningand I step outside I take a deep breaththen I get real high Then Iscream from the top of my lungs
What's goin' on And I say hey... And I say hey what's goin' on And I sayhey... I said hey what's goin' on And I say hey... And I say heywhat's goin' on And I say hey... I said hey what's goin' on
25 years of my life and still I'm trying to get up that great big hill of hopeFor a destination
I'm sitting here in a boring room,it's just another rainy sunday afternoon. I'm waisting my time, I've got nothing to do, I'm hanging around and I'm waiting for you, but nothing ever happens and I wonder.
I'm driving around, in my car, I'm driving too fast and I'm driving too far. I'd like to change my point of view, I feel so lonely, I'm waiting for you, but nothing ever happens, and I wonder.
CHORUS I wonder how, I wonder why, yesterday you talked about the blue blue sky, and all that I can see is just a yellow lemon tree. I'm turning my head, up and down, I'm turning, turning, turning, turning, turning around, and all that I can see is just another lemon tree.
Say: da, da da da da, die da da, da da da da, die da da, da die die da
I'm sitting here, I miss the pal, I'd like to go out, taking a shower, but there's a heavy cloud inside my head. I feel so tired, put myself into bed. Well nothing ever happens, and I wonder.
Isolation, is not good for me. Isolation, I don't want to sit on a lemon tree.
I'm stepping around in the desert of joy, maybe anyhow I get another toy, and everything will happen, and you wonder.
CHORUS I wonder how, I wonder why, yesterday you talked about the blue blue sky, and all that I can see is just another lemon tree. I'm turning my head, up and down, I'm turning, turning, turning, turning, turning around, and all that I can see is just a yellow lemon tree.
CHORUS I wonder (x2) I wonder how, I wonder why, yesterday you talked about the blue blue sky, and all that I can see (x3) is just a yellow lemon tree.
You've broken my heart, and now you leave me Love of my life, can't you see? Bring it back, bring it back Don't take it away from me Because you don't know What it means to me
Love of my life, don't leave me You've taken my love, and now desert me Love of my life, can't you see? Bring it back, bring it back Don't take it away from me Because you don't know What it means to me
You will remember When this is blown over And everything's all by the way When I grow older I will be there at your side to remind you How I still love you (I still love you)
Back, hurry back Please, bring it back home to me Because you don't know What it means to me
Goodbye England's rose May you ever grow in our hearts You were the grace that placed itself Where lives were torn apart You called out to our country And you whispered to those in pain Now you belong to heaven And the stars spell out your name
And it seems to me you lived your life Like a candle in the wind Never fading with the sunset When the rain set in And your footsteps will always fall here Along England's greenest hills Your candle's burned out long before Your legend ever will
Loveliness we've lost These empty days without your smile This torch we'll always carry For our nation's golden child And even though we try The truth brings us to tears All our words cannot express The joy you brought us through the years
And it seems to me you lived your life Like a candle in the wind Never fading with the sunset When the rain set in And your footsteps will always fall here Along England's greenest hills Your candle's burned our long before Your legend ever will
Goodbye England's rose May you ever grow in our hearts You were the grace that placed itself Where lives were torn apart Goodbye England's rose From a country lost without your soul Who'll miss the wings of your compassion More than you'll ever know
And it seems to me you lived your life Like a candle in the wind Never fading with the sunset When the rain set in And you footsteps will always fall here Along England's greenest hills Your candle's burned out long before Your legend ever will
I've gotta take a little time A little time to think things over I better read between the lines In case I need it when I'm older
This mountain, I must climb Feels like a world upon my shoulders Through the clouds, I see love shine Keeps me warm as life grows colder
In my life, there's been heartache and pain I don't know if I can face it again Can't stop now, I've traveled so far To change this lonely life
I wanna know what love is I want you to show me I wanna feel what love is I know you can show me (hey)
Gotta take a little time Little time to look around me I've got nowhere left to hide Looks like love has finally found me
In my life, there's been heartache and pain I don't know if I can face it again Can't stop now, I've traveled so far To change this lonely life
I wanna know what love is I want you to show me I wanna feel what love is I know you can show me
I wanna know what love is (I wanna know) I want you to show me (I wanna feel) I wanna feel what love is (I know, I know, and I know) I know you can show me Let's talk about love
I wanna know what love is (Love that you feel inside) I want you to show me (I'm feeling so much love) I wanna feel what love is (And you know, you just can't hide) I know you can show me
Oh, I wanna know what love is (Let's talk about love) I know you can show me (I wanna feel) I wanna feel what love is (And you know you just can't hide) I know you can show me I wanna feel what love is (oh, I wanna know) I want you to show me
And I've got mine And it's a shame Two grown up worlds That will never be the same
Why can't we be Like storybook children Runnin' through the rain Hand in hand Across the meadow? Why can't we be Like storybook children In a wonderland Where nothing's planned for tomorrow?
You've got his ring You've got his heart You've got his baby And whether it's too late To turn away And start all over again Oh no, don't tell me it's too late, baby
Why can't we be Like storybook children Running through the rain Hand in hand Across the meadow? Why can't we be Like storybook children In a wonderland, in a wonderland Where nothing's planned for tomorrow?
How happy we would be If only we were storybook children
