1.Against all odds
how can i just let you walk away,
just let you leave without a trace
when i stand here taking every breath with you, ooh
you're the only one who really knew me at all
how can you just walk away from me,
when all i can do is watch you leave
cos we've shared the laughter and the pain,
and even shared the tears
you're the only one who really knew me at all
so take a look at me now,
'cos there's just an empty space
and there's nothing left here to remind me,
just the memory of your face
take a look at me now,
'cos there's just an empty space
and you coming back to me is against all odds
and that's what i've got to face
i wish i could just make you turn around,
turn around and see me cry
there's so much i need to say to you,
so many reasons why
you're the only one who really knew me at all
so take a look at me now,
'cos there's just an empty space
and there's nothing left here to remind me,
just the memory of your face
take a look at me now,
'cos there's just an empty space
but to wait for you,
well that's all i can do
and that's what i've got to face
take a good look at me now,
'cos i'll still be standing here
and you coming back to me is against all odds
that's the chance i've got to take, oh, oho
just take a look at me now
2.season in the sun
goodbye to you, my trusted friend,
we've known each other since we were nine or ten;
together we've climbed hills and trees,
learned of love and a-b-c`s,
skinned our hearts and skinned our knees.
goodbye my friend, it's hard to die,
when all the birds are singing in the sky;
now that the spring is in the air,
pretty girls are every where;
think of me and i'll be there.
we had joy, we had fun,
we had seasons in the sun;
but the hills that we climb
were just seasons out of time.
goodbye, papa, please pray for me,
i was the black sheep of the family;
you tried to teach me right from wrong,
too much wine and too much song,
wonder how i got along.
goodbye, papa, it's hard to die,
when all the birds are singing in the sky;
now that the spring is in the air,
little children every where,
when you'll see them, i'll be there.
we had joy, we had fun,
we had seasons in the sun;
but the wild and the song,
like the season has all gone
chorus:
goodbye, michelle, my little one,
you gave me love and helped me find the sun;
and every time that i was down,
you would always come around
and get my feet back on the ground.
goodbye, michelle, it's hard to die,
when all the birds are singing in the sky;
now that the spring is in the air,
with the flowers every where
i wish that we could both be there.
all our lives we had fun,
we had seasons in the sun;
but the stars we could reach
were just starfish on the beach.
3.Bring Me to Life
How can you see into my eyes
Like open doors
Leading you down into my core
Where I've become so numb
Without a soul. My spirit's sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home
(Wake me up) Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up) Wake me up inside
(Save me) Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up) Bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up) Before I come undone
(Save me) Save me from the nothing I've become
Now that I know what I'm without
You can't just leave me
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life
(Wake me up) Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up) Wake me up inside
(Save me) Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up) Bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up) Before I come undone
(Save me) Save me from the nothing I've become
Bring me to life
(I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside)
Bring me to life
Frozen inside without your touch
Without your love, darling
Only you are the life among the dead
(All of this time I can't believe I couldn't see
Kept in the dark but you were there in front of me)
I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
Got to open my eyes to everything
(Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul)
Don't let me die here
(There must be something more)
Bring me to life
(Wake me up) Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up) Wake me up inside
(Save me) Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up) Bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up) Before I come undone
(Save me) Save me from the nothing I've become
Bring me to life
(I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside)
Bring me to life
4.Memory
Midnight
Not a sound from the pavement
Has the moon lost her memory
She is smiling alone
In the lamplight
The withered leaves collect at my feet
And the wind begins to moan
Memory! All alone in the moonlight
I can smile at the old days
I was beautiful then
I remember the time
I knew what happiness was
Let the memory live again
Every street lamp seems to beat
A fatalistic warning
Someone mutters and the street lamp sputters
Soon it will be morning
Burn out ends smoky days
The stale cold smell of morning
A street lamp dies
Another night is over
Another day is dawning
Daylight! I must wait for the sunrise
I must think of new life
And I mustn't give in
When the dawn comes tonight will
A memory too
And a new day will begin Sunlight through the trees in summer And next morn is waiting Like a flower as the dawning's breaking The memory's fading
Touch me! It's so easy to leave me
All alone with the memory
Of my days in the sun
If you touch me
You'll understand what happiness
Look a new day has begun!
