When you were here before Couldn't look you in the eye You're just like an angel Your skin makes me cry You float like a feather In a beautiful world And I wish I was special You're so flippin' special But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo. What the hell am I doing here? I don't belong here. I don't care if it hurts I want to have control I want a perfect body I want a perfect soul I want you to notice When I'm not around You're so flippin' special I wish I was special But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo. What the hell am I doing here? I don't belong here. She's running out again, She's running out She's run run run run Whatever makes you happy Whatever you want You're so flippin' special I wish I was special But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo, What the hell am I doing here? I don't belong here. I don't belong here.

It's gonna take some time this time To get myself in shape I really fell out of line this time I really missed the gate The birds on the telephone like, (next time) Are cryin' out to me, (next time) And I won't be so blind next time And I'll find some harmony But it's going to take some time this time And I can't make demands But, like the young trees in the winter time I'll learn how to bend After all the tears we've spent How could we make amends? So, it's one more round for experience And I'm on the road again And it's going to take some time this time And I can't make demands I'll learn how to bend It's going to take some time this time No matter what I've planned And, like the young trees in the winter time I'll learn how to bend After all the tears we've spent How could we make amends? So, it's one more round for experience And I'm on the road again And it's going to take some time this time Songwriters: Carole King/Toni Stern Lime lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC

Yeah, I'm gonna tell my tale come on, Come on, Give a listen, Cause I was born lonely down by the riverside Learned to spin fortune wheels, and throw dice And I was just thirteen when I had to leave home Knew I couldn't stick around, had to roam Ain't good lookin', but you know I ain't shy Ain't afraid to look a girl, in the eye So if you need some lovin, and you need it right away Take a little time out, and maybe I'll stay Then I got to ramble (ramblin' man) Lord I got to gamble (gamblin' man) Oh I got to ramble (ramblin' man) And I was born a ramblin' gamblin' man. HEEEEEEY!! Hey. I hope you got money, I'm sure gonna need some I ain't around to love you now, and I got to run I got to keep moving, never gonna slow down You can have your funky world, see you 'round I got to ramble (ramblin' man) Yeah, I got to gamble (gamblin' man) Ohh, I got to ramble (ramblin' man) I was born a ramblin' gamblin' man. Oh. Oooh yeah. Oh. Ramblin' man, everybody, Gamblin' man Ramblin' man, yeah, Gamblin' man Aahh, Ramblin' man Gamblin' man Alright, hey, yeah. Yeah.

So I'm back to the velvet underground Back to the floor that I love To a room with some lace and paper flowers Back to the gypsy that I was To the gypsy that I was And it all comes down to you Well, you know that it does, well Lightning strikes maybe once, maybe twice Oh and it lights up the night And you see your gypsy You see your gypsy To the gypsy That remains Her face says freedom With a little fear I have no fear I have only love And if I was a child And the child was enough Enough for me to love Enough to love She is dancing away from you now She was just a wish She was just a wish And her memory is all that is left for you now You see your gypsy, oh You see your gypsy Ooh ooh, oh oh, oh oh oh Goodness strikes Maybe once, maybe twice And it all comes down to you Ooh oh, and it all comes down to you Lightning strikes Maybe once, maybe twice (oh) I still see your bright eyes, bright eyes (And it all comes down to you) Songwriters: Stevie Nicks Lyrics © Kobalt Music Publishing Ltd., BMG Rights Management

When you wish upon a star Your dreams will take you very far But when you wish upon a dream Life ain't always what it seems What'd you see on a night so clear In the sky so very dear You're a shining star No matter who you are Shining bright to see What you could truly be (what you could truly be) Shining star come in to view Shine its watchful light on you Give you strength to carry on Make your body big and strong Born a man child of the sun Saw my work had just begun Found I had to stand alone Bless it now I've got my own So, if you find yourself in need Why don't you listen to these words of heed Be a giant grain of sand Words of wisdom, yes I can You're a shining star No matter who you are Shining bright to see What you could truly be You're a shining star No matter who you are Shining bright to see What you could truly be You're a shining star No matter who you are Shining bright to see What you could truly be Shinning star for you to see What your life can truly be Shinning star for you to see What your life can truly be Shinning star for you to see What your life can truly be Songwriters: Lorenzo Dunn/Philip Bailey/Maurice White Lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC

I can see the glow of a distant sun I can feel it inside Maybe this day could be the one I can hear the roar of a distant crowd They are waiting for me Calling my name Shouting out loud Holding on isn't always easy I ain't gonna change my mind Limelight you were all I ever wanted Since it all began Limelight shining on me Telling the world who I am Limelight don't let me slip right through your fingers There's a long way to fall After the years of waiting I'm gonna show them all I can see the world in a different light Now it's easy to say Where I went wrong What I did right I can hear the beat of a different drum Take it all in my stride Hold my head high Second to none Holding on wasn't always easy Nothing can change my mind Limelight you were all I ever wanted since it all began Limelight shining on me telling the world who I am Limelight don't let it slip right through your fingers There's a long way to fall After all the years of waiting, I'm gonna show them all Maybe the role's not easy, maybe the prize is small After all the years of waiting, I'm gonna show them all Songwriters: Alan Parsons/Eric Woolfson Lyrics © Universal Music Publishing Group

Now the seats are all empty Let the roadies take the stage Pack it up and tear it down They're the first to come and last to leave Working for that minimum wage They'll set it up in another town Tonight the people were so fine They waited there in line And when they got up on their feet They made the show And that was sweet But I can hear the sound Of slamming doors and folding chairs And that's a sound they'll never know Now roll them cases out and lift them amps Haul them trusses down and get em up them ramps Cause when it comes to moving me You know you guys are the champs But when that last guitars been packed away You know that I still want to play So just make sure you got it all set to go Before you come for my piano But the bands on the bus And they're waiting to go We've got to drive all night And do a show in Chicago Or Detroit, I don't know We do so many shows in a row And these towns all look the same We just pass the time in our hotel rooms And wander round backstage Till those lights come up and we hear that crowd And we remember why we came Now we got country n western on the bus R&B We got disco in eight tracks, cassettes in stereo We got rural scenes and magazines And we got truckers on the CB And we got Richard Pryor on the video We got time to think of the ones we love While the miles roll away But the only time that seems too short Is the time that we get to play People youve got the power over what we do You can sit there and wait Or you can pull us through Come along, sing the song You know you can't go wrong Cause when that morning sun comes beating down You're going to wake up in your town But well be scheduled to appear A thousand miles away from here Stay Just a little bit longer. We wanna play Just a little bit longer. Now the promoter don't mind. And the union don't mind If we take a little time And we leave it all behind And sing one more song. Oh won't you stay Just a little bit longer. Please, please, please Say you will. Say you will.

Standin' at the airport Lookin' down the strip, She was cryin' her eyes, She was bitin' her lip. 747 just left from gate eleven And there's no turnin' round 'cos it's just leavin' the ground And gettin' higher. Standin' at the dock-side Lookin' out to sea When I saw her there But she did not see me. There she stood with no hope Because she'd missed the boat And as her dreams sailed away She headed back for the day, Back to the city. Night in the city, oh oh oh, Madness at midnight, Night in the city Drivin' you insane. I was runnin' kinda lonely At the city place. I waited for an hour, Never saw her face. Crazy ladies that wait And slide around like a snake I just can't take anymore, I'm going in through the door Into the city. Night in the city, oh oh oh, Madness at midnight, Night in the city Drivin' you insane. Songwriters: Jeff Lynne Lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC

Sold in silence I never thought I could ever fall so deep Now I need to know how you feel And with a kiss I steal the silence from your lips Hearts colliding Making waves that will echo through the years Never thought I would find a love so real And I know this I want the life that love can give Now I know what it means A love so rare In years of wasted promises A love to care Only love can make some sense of it A love affair And though it's only just begun A love to share When two hearts collide and beat as one Now I know you care And I'll provide you With a dream that will never disappear With the words that I know you want to hear Without end I've found a love I will defend Now you know what I mean A love so rare In years of wasted promises A love to care Only love can make some sense of it A love affair And though it's only just begun A love to share When two hearts collide and beat as one Now I know you care Lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC, Warner/Chappell Music, Inc, Spirit Music Group

I'm broke but I'm happy, I'm poor but I'm kind I'm short but I'm healthy, yeah I'm high but I'm grounded, I'm sane but I'm overwhelmed I'm lost but I'm hopeful, baby What it all comes down to Is that everything's gonna be fine, fine, fine 'Cause I've got one hand in my pocket And the other one is giving a high five I feel drunk but I'm sober, I'm young and I'm underpaid I'm tired but I'm working, yeah I care but I'm restless, I'm here but I'm really gone I'm wrong and I'm sorry baby What it all comes down to Is that everything is going to be quite alright 'Cause I've got one hand in my pocket And the other one is flicking a cigarette What it all comes down to Is that I haven't got it all figured out just yet 'Cause I've got one hand in my pocket And the other one is giving a peace sign I'm free but I'm focused, I'm green but I'm wise I'm hard but I'm friendly, baby I'm sad but I'm laughing, I'm brave but I'm chicken I'm sick but I'm pretty baby And what it all boils down to Is that no one's really got it figured out just yet I've got one hand in my pocket And the other one is playing the piano And what it all comes down to, my friends, yeah Is that everything is just fine fine fine I've got one hand in my pocket And the other one is hailing a taxi cab Songwriters: Alanis Morissette/Glen Ballard Lyrics © Universal Music Publishing Group, The Bicycle Music Company
