Purple Rain, Prince
I never meant to cause you any
sorrow;
I never meant to cause you any pain.
I only wanted one time to see you laughing.
I only wanted to see you laughing in the purple rain.
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
I only wanted to see you bathing in the purple rain
I never wanted to be your weekend lover;
I only wanted to be some kind of friend, hey
Baby, I could never steal you from another.
It's such a shame our friendship had to end.
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
I only wanted to see you underneath the purple rain.
Honey, I know, I know, I know times are changin’.
It's time we all reach out for something new, that means you to.
You say you want a leader, but you can't seem to make up your
mind.
I think you better close it and let me guide you to the purple
rain.
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
If you know what I'm singin’ about up here, come on raise
your hand.
Purple rain, purple rain
I only want to see you, only want to see you in the purple rain.
As Tears Go By, Rolling
Stones
It is the evening of the day.
I sit and watch the children play.
Smiling faces I can see;
But not for me.
I sit and watch
As tears go by.
My riches can't buy ev'rything.
I want to hear the children sing.
All I hear is the sound
Of rain falling on the ground.
I sit and watch
As tears go by.
It is the evening of the day.
I sit and watch the children play;
Doin' things I used to do
They think are new.
I sit and watch
As tears go by.
Wild Horses, Rolling Stones
Childhood living is easy to do.
The things you wanted I bought them for you.
Graceless lady you know who I am,
You know I can't let you slide through my hands.
Wild Horses couldn't drag me away,
Wild, wild horses, couldn't drag me away.
I watched you suffer a dull aching pain,
Now you've decided to show me the same.
No sweeping exits or offstage lines
Can make me feel bitter or treat you unkind.
Wild Horses couldn't drag me away,
Wild, wild horses, couldn't drag me away.
I know I dreamed you a sin and a lie,
I have my freedom but I don't have much time.
Faith has been broken, tears must be cried,
Let's do some living after we die.
Wild Horses couldn't drag me away,
Wild, wild horses, we'll ride them someday.
Wild Horses couldn't drag me away,
Wild, wild horses, we'll ride them someday.
You Can't Always Get What You Want, Rolling Stones
I saw her today at the reception,
A glass of wine in her hand.
I knew she was gonna meet her connection,
At her feet was a footloose man.
I saw her today at the reception,
A glass of wine in her hand.
I knew she was gonna meet her connection,
At her feet was a footloose man
You can't always get what you want,
You can't always get what you want,
You can't always get what you want,
But if you try sometimes you just might find
You'll get what you need.
I went down to the demonstration,
To get my fair share of abuse.
Singing "we're gonna vent our frustrations,
And if we don't we're gonna blow a 50-amp fuse."
You can't always get what you want,
You can't always get what you want,
You can't always get what you want,
But if you try sometimes you might find
You'll get what you need.
I went down to the Chelsea drugstore
To get your prescription filled.
I was standing in line with Mr. Jimmy,
And man, did he look pretty ill.
We decided that we would have a soda,
My favorite flavor, cherry red.
I sung my song to Mr. Jimmy,
And he said one word to me, and that was "dead,"
I said to him,
You can't always get what you want,
You can't always get what you want,
You can't always get what you want,
But if you try sometimes you just might find
You'll get what you need.
You'll get what you need--yeah, oh baby.
I saw her today at the reception,
In her glass was a bleeding man.
She was practiced at the art of deception,
Well I could tell by her bloodstained hands.
You can't always get what you want,
You can't always get what you want,
You can't always get what you want,
But if you try sometimes you just might find
You just might find
You'll get what you need.
You can't always get what you want,
You can't always get what you want,
You can't always get what you want,
But if you try sometimes you just might find
You just might find
You'll get what you need.
Heart Of Stone, Rolling Stones
There have been so many girls that
I've known.
I've made so many cry and still I wonder why.
Here comes the little girl;
I see her walking down the street.
She's all by herself.
I try and knock her off her feet.
But she'll never break, never break, never break, never break
This heart of stone.
Oh no, no this heart of stone.
What's different about her?
I don't really know.
No matter how I try
I just can't make her cry.
But she'll never break, never break, never break, never break
This heart of stone.
Oh no, no this heart of stone.
Don't keep on looking that same old way.
If you try acting sad,
You'll only make me glad.
Better listen little girl.
You go on walking down the street.
I ain't got no love;
I ain't the kind to meet.
'Cause you'll never break, never break, never break, never break
This heart of stone.
Oh no, no you'll never break this heart of stone, darlin'.
No, no this heart of stone.
You'll never break it darlin',
You won't break this heart of stone.
Oh no, no, no
You better go, you better go home...
Get Off Of My Cloud, Rolling Stones
I live in an apartment on the
ninety-ninth floor of my block.
And I sit at home looking out the window,
Imagining the world has stopped.
Then in flies a guy who's all dressed up like a Union Jack
and says, I've won five pounds if I have his kind of detergent
pack.
I says, Hey! You! Get off of my cloud.
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud.
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud.
Don't hang around 'cause two's a crowd
On my cloud, baby.
The telephone is ringing,
I say, "Hi, it's me. Who is it ther on the line?"
A voice says, "Hi, hello, how are you?"
Well, I guess I'm doin' fine.
He says, "It's three a.m., there's too much noise.
Don't you people ever wanna go to bed?
Just 'cause you feel so good, do you have
To drive me out of my head?"
I says, Hey! You! Get off of my cloud.
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud.
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud.
Don't hang around 'cause two's a crowd
On my cloud, baby.
I was sick and tired, fed up with this,
And decided to take a drive downtown.
It was so very quiet and peaceful.
There was nobody, not a soul around.
I laid myself out, I was so tired and I started to dream.
In the morning the parking tickets were just like
A flag stuck on my window screen.
I says, Hey! You! Get off of my cloud.
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud.
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud.
Don't hang around 'cause two's a crowd
On my cloud.
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud.
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud.
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud.
Don't hang around 'cause two's a crowd.
Time Is On My Side, Rolling Stones
Time is on my side, yes it is.
Time is on my side, yes it is.
Now you always say
That you want to be free.
But you've come running back.
Said you will, baby.
You've come running back.
Done that so many times before;
You've come running back to me.
Oh, time is on my side, yes it is.
Time is on my side, yes it is.
You're searching for good times;
But just wait and see.
You'll come running back.
I won't have to worry no more.
You'll come running back.
Spend the rest of my life with you, baby.
You'll come running back to me.
Go ahead, go ahead and light up the town.
And baby, do everything your heart desires.
Remember, I'll always be around.
And I know, I know,
like I told you so many times before,
You're gonna come back, baby.
'Cause I know, I know,
You're gonna come back knocking,
Yeah, knocking right on my door.
Well, time is on my side, yes it is.
Time is on my side, yes it is.
'Cause I got the real love;
The kind that you need.
You'll come running back.
Said you would, baby.
You'll come running back.
I don't always said you would.
You'll come running back;
I won't have to worry no more.
Yes time, time, time is on my side, yes it is.
Time, time, time is on my side, yes it is.
Oh, time, time, time is on my side, yes it is.
I said, time, time, time is on my side, yes it is.
Oh, time, time, time is on my side.
Yeah, time, time, time is on my side.
Dream Weaver
I have just closed my eyes again.
Climbed aboard the Dream Weaver train.
Driver take away my worries of today,
And leave tomorrow behind...
Dream Weaver... I believe you can get me through the night.
Dream Weaver... I believe we can reach the morning light.
Fly me high through the starry skies,
Or maybe to an astral plane.
Cross the highways of fantasy,
Help me to forget today's pain...
Dream Weaver... I believe you can get me through the night.
Dream Weaver... I believe we can reach the morning light.
Though the dawn may be coming soon,
There still may be some time.
Fly me away to the bright side of the moon,
And meet me on the other side...
Dream Weaver... I believe you can get me through the night.
Dream Weaver... I believe we can reach the morning light.
Send In The Clowns, Stephen Sondheim
Isn't it rich?
Are we a pair?
Me here at last on the ground, you in midair...
Send in the clowns.
Isn't it bliss?
Don't you approve?
One who keeps tearing around, one who can't move...
Where are the clowns?
Send in the clowns.
Just when I'd stopped opening doors,
finally knowing the one that I wanted was yours,
making my entrance again with my usual flair,
sure of my lines,
no one is there.
Don't you love farce?
My fault I fear.
I thought that you'd want what I want. Sorry, my dear.
But where are the clowns?
Quick, send in the clowns.
Don't bother, they're here.
Isn't it rich, isn't it queer, losing my timing this late in my
career?
And where are the clowns?
There ought to be clowns.
Well, maybe next year...
