“i think it’s dark and it looks like rain” you said
“and the wind is blowing like it’s the end of the
world” you said “and it’s so cold it’s like the
cold if you were dead” and then you smiled for
a second.
“i think i’m old and i’m feeling pain” you said
“and it’s all running out like it’s the end of the
world” you said “and it’s so cold it’s like the
cold if you were dead” and then you smiled for
a second
sometimes you make me feel like i’m living at
the edge of the world like i’m living at the edge
of the world “it’s just the way i smile” you said
Tough, you think you’ve got the stuff
You’re telling me and anyone
You’re hard enough
You don’t have to put up a fight
You don’t have to always be right
Let me take some of the punches
For you tonight
Listen to me now
I need to let you know You don’t have to go it alone
And it’s you when I look in the mirror
And it’s you when I don’t pick up the phone
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own
We fight all the time
You and I… that’s alright
We’re the same soul
I don’t need… I don’t need to hear you say
That if we weren’t so alike
You’d like me a whole lot more
Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don’t have to go it alone
And it’s you when I look in the mirror
And it’s you when I don’t pick up the phone
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own
I know that we don’t talk
I’m sick of it all
Can you hear me when I Sing,
you’re the reason I sing
You’re the reason why the opera is in me
Where are we now?
I’ve got to let you know A house still doesn’t make a home
Don’t leave me here alone
And it’s you when I look in the mirror
And it’s you that makes it hard to let go
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own
Sometimes you can’t make it The best you can do is to fake it
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own
I first saw you.
You had on blue jeans.
Your eyes couldn’t hide anything.
I saw you breathing
And I saw you staring out in space.
I next saw you, you was at a party.
Thought you wasn’t cool, oh so flirty.
I came against.
Didn’t say excuse.
You knew what I was doing,
We looked very fine ’cause we were leaving.
Like Saint Joan, doing a cool, cool jerk
Oh I want you, Oh I want you… like a kangaroo…
I’m sentimental
So I walk in the rain
I’ve got some habits
even I cant explain
Go to the corner
and I end up in Spain
Why try to change me now?
I seat and day dream
I got day dreams galore
Cigarette ashes that they go on the floor
Go away weekend
Leave my keys in the door
Why try to change me now?
Why cant I be more conventional
People talk and they stay… So I try
But that cant be
cos I cant see
my strange little world
just go passing me by
let people wonder
let them laugh let them frown
you know I love you
till the moon is upside down
don’t you remember
I was always your clown
Why try to change me now?
Why cant I be more conventional
People talk and they stay…. So I try
But that cant be
cos I cant see
my strange little world
just go passing me by
let people wonder
let them laugh let them frown
you know I love you
till the moon is upside down
don’t you remember
I was always your clown
Why try to change me?
Why would you want to change me?
Why try to change me now?
