Genesis
All that time I was searching, nowhere to run to, it started me thinking, Wondering what I could make of my life, who'd be waiting, Asking all kinds of questions, to myself, but never finding the answers, Crying at the top of my voice, no one listening, All this time, I still remember everything you said There's so much you promised, how could I ever forget. Listen, you know I love you, but I just can't take this, You know I love you, but I'm playing for keeps, Although I need you, I'm not gonna make this, You know I want to, but I'm in too deep. So listen, listen to me, You must believe me, I can feel your eyes go through me, But I don't know why. I know you're going, but I can't believe it's the way that you're leaving, It's like we never knew each other at all, it may be my fault, I gave you too many reasons, being alone, when I didn't want to I thought you'd always be there, I almost believed you, All this time, I still remember everything you said, There's so much you promised, how could I ever forget. Listen, you know I love you, but I just can't take this, You know I love you, but I'm playing for keeps, Although I need you, I'm not gonna make this, You know I want to, but I'm in too deep. So listen, listen to me, I can feel your eyes go through me It seems I've spent too long Only thinking about myself Now I want to spend my life Just caring bout somebody else. Listen, you know I love you, but I just can't take this, You know I love you, but I'm playing for keeps, Although I need you, I'm not gonna make this, You know I want to, but I'm in too deep.

It used to seem to me that my life ran on too fast And I had to take it slowly just to make the good parts last But when you're born to run it's so hard to just slow down So don't be surprised to see me back in that bright part of town I'll be back in the high life again All the doors I closed one time will open up again I'll be back in the high life again All the eyes that watched me once will smile and take me in And I'll drink and dance with one hand free Let the world back into me and on I'll be a sight to see Back in the high life again You used to be the best to make life be life to me And I hope that you're still out there and you're like you used to be We'll have ourselves a time And we'll dance 'til the morning sun And we'll let the good times come in And we won't stop 'til we're done We'll be back in the high life again All the doors I closed one time will open up again We'll be back in the high life again All the eyes that watched us once will smile and take us in And we'll drink and dance with one hand free And have the world so easily and oh we'll be a sight to see Back in the high life again High life High life Back in the high life again We'll be back in the high life again All the doors I closed one time will open up again We'll be back in the high life again All the eyes that watched us once will smile and take us in And we'll drink and dance with one hand free And have the world so easily and oh we'll be a sight to see Back in the high life again High life Back in the high life Oh, we'll be back Songwriters: Will Jennings/Steve Winwood Lyrics © Warner Chappell Music, Inc, Universal Music Publishing Group, Kobalt Music Publishing Ltd.

We're talking away I don't know what I'm to say I'll say it anyway Today's another day to find you Shying away I'll be coming for your love, okay? Take on me (take on me) Take me on (take on me) I'll be gone In a day or two So needless to say I'm odds and ends But I'll be stumbling away Slowly learning that life is okay Say after me It's no better to be safe than sorry Take on me (take on me) Take me on (take on me) I'll be gone In a day or two Songwriters: Pal Waaktaar/Morten Harket/Magne Furuholmen Lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC

Feeling down 'n' dirty, feeling kinda mean I've been from one to another extreme This time I had a good time, ain't got time to wait I wanna stick around till I can't see straight Fill my eyes with that double vision No disguise for that double vision Ooh, when it gets through to me, it's always new to me My double vision gets the best of me Never do more than I, I really need My mind is racing, but my body's in the lead Tonight's the night, I'm gonna push it to the limit I live all of my years in a single minute Fill my eyes with that double vision No disguise for that double vision Ooh, when it gets through to me, it's always new to me My double vision always seems to get the best of me, the best of me, yeah-ah Ooh, double vision, I need my double vision Ooh, It takes me out of my head, takin' me out of my head Ooh, I get my double vision Ooh, seeing double double, double vision Ooh, oh my double vision Ooh, double vision Yeah-ah, I get double vision, ooh . . .

One, two, one, two, three, four Shed a tear 'cause I'm missin' you I'm still alright to smile Girl, I think about you every day now Was a time when I wasn't sure But you set my mind at ease There is no doubt you're in my heart now Said "woman take it slow, and it'll work itself out fine" All we need is just a little patience Said "sugar make it slow and we'll come together fine" All we need is just a little patience (Patience) Mm, yeah I sit here on the stairs 'Cause I'd rather be alone If I can't have you right now, I'll wait dear Sometimes I get so tense but I can't speed up the time But you know love there's one more thing to consider Said "woman take it slow and things will be just fine" You and I'll just use a little patience Said "sugar take the time 'cause the lights are shining bright" You and I've got what it takes to make it We won't fake it, I'll never break it 'Cause I can't take it Little patience, mm yeah, mm yeah Need a little patience, yeah Just a little patience, yeah Some more patience, yeah (I've been walking the streets at night) Just trying to get it right (A little patience, yeah) It's hard to see with so many around You know I don't like being stuck in the crowd (Could use some patience, yeah) And the streets don't change but maybe the names I ain't got time for the game 'cause I need you (Gotta have more patience, yeah) Yeah, yeah, yeah but I need you (All need more patience) Oh, I need you (All need some patience) Oh, I need you (Just a little patience) Ooh this time (Is all you need) Songwriters: Slash/Izzy Stradlin/Duff Mc Kagan/Steven Adler/W.

Maybe I'm amazed at the way you love me all the time Maybe I'm afraid of the way I love you Maybe I'm amazed at the way you pull me out of time You hung me on the line Maybe I'm amazed at the way I really need you Maybe I'm a man Maybe I'm a lonely man who's in the middle of something That he doesn't really understand Maybe I'm a man And maybe you're the only woman who could ever help me Baby, won't you help me to understand? Ooh Maybe I'm a man Maybe I'm a lonely man who's in the middle of something That he doesn't really understand Maybe I'm a man And maybe you're the only woman who could ever help me Baby, won't you help me to understand? Ooh Maybe I'm amazed at the way you're with me all the time Maybe I'm afraid of the way I leave you Maybe I'm amazed at the way you help me sing my song Right me when I'm wrong Maybe I'm amazed at the way I really need you Songwriters: Paul James McCartney Lyrics © Sony/ATV Tunes LLC, Sony Atv Tunes LLC, Sony Atv Music Publishing France

See the curtains hangin' in the window, in the evenin' on a Friday night A little light a-shinin' through the window, lets me know everything is alright Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind See the paper layin' in the sidewalk, a little music from the house next door So I walked on up to the doorstep, through the screen and across the floor Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind Sweet days of summer, the jasmine's in bloom July is dressed up and playing her tune And I come home from a hard day's work And you're waiting there, not a care in the world See the smile a-waitin' in the kitchen, food cookin' and the plates for two Feel the arms that reach out to hold me, in the evening when the day is through Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind Songwriters: Darrell Crofts/Jimmy Seals Lyrics © Songtrust Ave, Universal Music Publishing Group

Midnight at the oasis Send your camel to bed Shadows painting our faces Traces of romance in our heads Heaven's holding a half-moon Shining just for us Let's slip off to a sand dune, real soon And kick up a little dust Come on, Cactus is our friend He'll point out the way Come on, till the evening ends 'Til the evening ends You don't have to answer There's no need to speak I'll be your belly dancer, prancer And you can be my sheik I know your daddy's a sultan A nomad known to all With fifty girls to attend him, they all send him Jump at his beck and call But you won't need no harem, honey When I'm by your side And you won't need no camel, no no When I take you for a ride Come on, Cactus is our friend He'll point out the way Come on, till the evening ends 'Til the evening ends Midnight at the oasis Send your camel to bed Got shadows painting our faces And traces of romance in our heads Oh come on, oh come on Woo hoo hoo, yeah, oh yeah Oh oh, yeah, yeah Songwriters: David Nichtern Lyrics © Universal Music Publishing Group, Kobalt Music Publishing Ltd.
