Hard Habit To Break

I guess I thought you'd be here forever 

Another illusion I chose to create 

You don't know what ya got until it's gone 

And I found out just a little too late 

I was acting as if you were lucky to have 

Doin' you a favor I hardly knew you were there 

But then you were gone and it all was wrong 

Had no idea how much I cared 

Chorus: 

Now being without you 

Takes a lot of getting used to 

Should learn to live with it 

But I don't want to 

Being without you 

Is all a big mistake 

Instead of getting easier 

It's the hardest thing to take 

I'm addicted to ya babe 

You're a hard habit to break 

You found someone else you had every reason 

You know I can't blame you for runnin' to him 

Two people together but living alone 

I was spreading my love too thin 

After all of these years 

I'm still tryin' to shake it 

Doin' much better they say that it just takes time 

Deep in the night it's an endless flight 

I can't get ya out of my mind 

Chorus 

i can't go just can't go on

2nd Chorus: 

Being without you 

Takes a lot of getting used to 

Should learn to live with

But, I don't want to 

Being without you 

Is all a big mistake 

Instead of getting any easier 

It's the hardest thing to take 

I'm addicted to you 

You're a hard habit to break

You're a hard habit to break ( hard habit to break)

I'm addicted to You

Hard To Say I'm Sorry

Everybody needs a little time away

I heard her say from each other

Even lover's need a holiday

Far away from each other

Hold me now

It's hard for me to say I'm sorry

I just want you to stay

After all that we've been through

I will make it up to you, I promise to

And after all that's been said and done

You're just the part of me I can't let go

Couldn't stand to be kept away

Just for the day from your body

Wouldn't wanna be swept away

Far away from the one that I love

Hold me now

It's hard for me to say I'm sorry

I just want you to know

Hold me now

I really want to tell you I'm sorry

I could never let you go

After all that we've been through

I will make it up to you, I promise to

And after all that's been said and done

You're just the part of me I can't let go

After all that we've been through

I will make it up to you, I promise to

You're gonna be the lucky one

When we get there gonna jump in the air

No one will see us 'cause there's nobody there

After all, you know we really don't care

Hold on, I'm gonna take you there

(I've Been) Searchin' So Long

As my life goes on I believe

Somehow something's changed

Something deep inside

Ooh a part of me 

There's a strange new light in my eyes

Things I've never known

Changing my life

Changing me 

I've been searchin'

So long

To find an answer

Now I know my life has meaning< 

Now I see myself as I am

Feeling very free

Life is everything

Ooh it's meant to be

When my days have come to an end

I will understand

What I left behind

Part of me 

I've been searching

So long

To find and answer

Now I know my life has meaning

Woah woah 

Searching

(Don't you know I'm)

For an answer

To the question,

Oh yeah

"Who am I?"

Maybe

Maybe it's true

It's only natural

(It's only natural baby, yeah)

Good things

In life

Take a long time

yeah yeah 

Zombie

Another head hangs lowly, 

Child is slowly taken. 

And the violence caused such silence, 

Who are we mistaken? 

But you see, it's not me, it's not my family. 

In your head, in your head they are fighting, 

With their tanks and their bombs, 

And their bombs and their guns. 

In your head, in your head, they are crying... 

In your head, in your head, 

Zombie, zombie, zombie, 

Hey, hey, hey. What's in your head, 

In your head, 

Zombie, zombie, zombie? 

Hey, hey, hey, hey, oh, dou, dou, dou, dou, dou... 

Another mother's breakin', 

Heart is taking over. 

When the vi'lence causes silence, 

We must be mistaken. 

It's the same old theme since nineteen-sixteen. 

In your head, in your head they're still fighting, 

With their tanks and their bombs, 

And their bombs and their guns. 

In your head, in your head, they are dying... 

In your head, in your head, 

Zombie, zombie, zombie, 

Hey, hey, hey. What's in your head, 

In your head, 

Zombie, zombie, zombie? 

Hey, hey, hey, hey, oh, oh, oh, 

Oh, oh, oh, oh, hey, oh, ya, ya-a... 

Ode To My Family

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo... 

Understand the things I say, don't turn away from me, 

'Cause I've spent half my life out there, you wouldn't disagree. 

Do you see me? Do you see? Do you like me? 

Do you like me standing there? Do you notice? 

Do you know? Do you see me? Do you see me? 

Does anyone care? 

Unhappiness where's when I was young, 

And we didn't give a damn, 

'Cause we were raised, 

To see life as fun and take it if we can. 

My mother, my mother, 

She hold me, she hold me, when I was out there. 

My father, my father, 

He liked me, oh, he liked me. Does anyone care? 

Understand what I've become, it wasn't my desing. 

And people ev'rywhere think, something better than I am. 

But I miss you, I miss, 'cause I liked it, 

'Cause I liked it, when I was out there. Do you know this? 

Do you know you did not find me. You did not find. 

Does anyone care? 

Unhappiness where's when I was young, 

And we didn't give a damn, 

'Cause we were raised, 

To see life as fun and take it if we can. 

My mother, my mother, 

She hold me, she hold me, when I was out there. 

My father, my father, 

He liked me, oh, he liked me. 

Does anyone care?... [X9]

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo... 

Look Away

When you called me up this morning, 

told me 'bout the new love you found, 

I'm said "I'm happy for you, 

I really happy for you." 

Found someone else, 

I guess I won't be coming 'round. 

I guess it's over, baby; 

it's really over, baby, whoa... 

And from what you said 

I know you've gotten over me; 

it'll never be the way it used to be. 

So if it's gotta be this way, 

don't worry, baby, I can take the news okay. 

But if you see me walking by, 

and the tears are in my eyes, 

look away, baby, look away. 

If we meet on the streets someday, 

and I don't know what to say, 

look away, baby, look away. 

Don't look at me; 

I don't want you to see me this way. 

When we both agreed as lovers, 

we were better off as friends, 

that's how it had to be, 

yeah, that's how it had to be. 

I tell you I'm fine 

but sometimes I just pretend; 

wish you were holding me, 

wish you were still holding me, whoa... 

I just never thought, 

that I would be replaced so soon; 

I wasn't prepared to hear those words from you. 

I know I wanted to be free; 

yeah, baby, this is how we wanted it to be. 

But if you see me walking by, 

and the tears are in my eyes, 

look away, baby, look away. 

If we meet on the streets someday, 

and I don't know what to say, 

look away, baby, look away. 

Don't look at me; 

I don't want you to see me this way. 

[Repeat chorus 2x] 

When you called me up this morning, 

told me 'bout the new love you found. 

I said "I'm happy for you, 

I'm really happy for you." 

Will You Still Love Me

Take me as I am 

Put your hand in mine now and forever 

Darling here I stand, stand before you now 

Deep inside I always knew 

It was you, you and me 

Two hearts drawn together bound by destiny 

It was you and you for me 

Every road leads to your door 

Every step I take forever more 

CHORUS: 

Just say you'll love me for the rest of your life 

I gotta lot of love and I don't want to let go 

Will you still love me for the rest of my life? 

'Cause I can't go on 

No, I can't go on 

I can't go on 

If I'm on my own 

Take me as I am 

Put your heart in mine, stay with me forever 

'Cause I am just a man who never understood 

I never had a thing to prove 

Till there was you 

You and me 

Then it all came clear so suddenly 

How close to you that I wanna be 

CHORUS 

Bridge: 

Do you believe a love could run so stong? 

Do you believe a love could pass you by? 

There was no special one for me 

I was the lonely one, you see 

But then my heart lost all control 

Now you're all that I know 

CHORUS 

You're The Inspiration

You know our love was meant to be

The kind of love that lasts forever

An' I want you here with me

From tonight until the end of time

You should know, everywhere I go

Always on my mind, in my heart, in my soul, baby

You're the meaning in my life

You're the inspiration

You bring feeling to my life

You're the inspiration

Wanna have you near me

I wanna have you hear me sayin'

No one needs you more than I need you

And I know, yes I know that it's plain to see

So in love when we're together

Now I know that I need you here with me

From tonight until the end of time

You should know, everywhere I go

  (Yes you need to know)

Always on my mind, you're in my heart in my soul

You're the meaning in my life

You're the inspiration

You bring feeling to my life

Always on my mind

  (No one needs you more than I)

Till the end of time

When you love somebody

Always on my mind

If You Leave Me Now

If you leave me now, you'll take away the biggest part of me

Uh uh uh uh no baby please don't go

And if you leave me now, you'll take away the very heart of me

Uh uh uh uh no baby please don't go

Uh uh uh uh girl I just want you to stay

A love like ours is love that's hard to find

How could we let it slip away

We've come too far to leave it all behind

How could we end it all this way

When tomorrow comes and we'll both regret

The things we said today

A love like ours is love that's hard to find

How could we let it slip away

We've come too far to leave it all behind

How could we end it all this way

When tomorrow comes and we'll both regret

The things we said today

If you leave me now, you'll take away the biggest part of me

Uh uh uh uh no baby please don't go

Uh girl, just got to have you by my side

Uh uh uh uh no baby, please don't go

Oh mama, I just got to have your lovin, yeah

Run To You

She says her love for me could never die

But that'd change if she ever found out about you and I

Oh - but her love is cold

Would it hurt her if she didn't know, cause...

When it gets too much

I need to feel your touch

I’m gonna run to you

I’m gonna run to you

Cause when the feelings right I'm gonna run all night

I’m gonna run to you

She's got a heart of gold she'd never let me down

But you're the woman that always turns me on

You keep me coming round

I know her love is true

But it's so damn easy making love to you

I got my mind made up

I need to feel your touch

I’m gonna run to you

Yeah - I'm gonna run to you

Cause when the feeling right I'm gonna stay all night

I’m gonna run to you

Yeah - I'm gonna run to you

Oh when the feeling right I'm gonna run all night

I'm gonna run to you

Straight From The Heart

I could start dreamin' but it never ends

As long as you're gone we may as well pretend

I've been dreamin'

Straight from the heart

You say it's easy but who's to say

That we'd be able to keep it this way

But it's easier

Comin' straight from the heart 

Oh Give it to me straight from the heart

Tell me we can make another start

You know I'll never go - as long as I know

It's comin' straight from the heart

I see you on the street some other time

And all my words would just fall outta line

While we're dreamin'

Straight from the heart

Oh Give it to me straight from the heart

Tell me we can make one more start

You know I'll never go - as long as I know 

It's comin' straight from the heart

(oh)

(i'll never leave you darlin')

oh straight from the heart

tell me we can make one more start

you know i'll never go- as long as i know 

you'll give it to me now

straight from the heart 

tell me we can make one more start

you know i'll never go-as long as i kno

it's coming straight from the heart

give it to me

oh no, oh no 

straight from the heart 

you know i'll never go-as long as i know

it's coming straight from the heart

Summer Of '69

I got my first real six-string

Bought it at the five-and-dime

Played 'til my fingers bled

was summer of '69

Me and some guys from school

Had a Band and we tried real hard

Jimmy quit Jody got married

I shoulda known we'd never get far

Oh when I look back now

The summer seemed to last forever

And if I had the choice

Ya - I'd always wanna be there

Those were the best days of my life

(CHORUS)

Ain't no use in complainin'

When you got a job to do

Spent my evenin's down at the drive in

And that's when I met you yeah

Standin on your mama's porch

You told me that you'd wait forever

Oh and when you held my hand

I knew that it was now or never

Those were the best days of my life

(Chorus) 

Back in Summer of '69

OH

Man we were killin' time

We were young and restless

We needed to unwind

I guess nothin' can last forever, forever, no

Yeah

And now the times are changin'

Look at everything that's come and gone

Somethimes when I play that old six-string

I think about ya wonder what went wrong

Standin' on your mama's porch

You told me it would last forever

Oh and when you held my hand

I knew that it was now or never

Those were the best days of my life

Oh yeah

(Chorus) 

Back in summer of '69

(Repeats until fading off)

Everything I Do, I Do It For You

Look into my eyes - you will see 

What you mean to me 

Search your heart - search your soul 

And when you find me there you'll search no more 

Don't tell me it's not worth tryin' for 

You can't tell me it's not worth dyin' for 

You know it's true 

Everything I do - I do it for you 

Look into your  heart - you will find 

There's nothin' there to hide 

Take me as I am - take my life 

I would give it all - I would sacrifice 

Don't tell me it's not worth fightin' for 

I can't help it - there's nothin' I want more 

Ya know it's true 

Everything I do - I do it for you 

There's no love - like your love 

And no other - could give more love 

There's nowhere - unless you're there 

All the time - all the way yeah

(background quite)

To your heart baby

Oh - you can't tell me it's not worth tryin' for 

I can't help it - there's nothin' I want more 

I would fight for you - I'd lie for you 

Walk the wire for you - ya I'd die for you 

Ya know it's true 

Everything I do - oooww - I do it for you 

Heaven

Oh - thinkin' about all our younger years

There was only you and me

We were young and wild and free

Now nothin' can take you away from me

We bin down that road before

But that's over now

You keep me comin' back for more

Baby you're all that I want

When you're lyin' here in my arms

I'm findin' it hard to believe

We're in heaven

And love is all that I need

And I found it there in your heart

It isn't too hard to see

We're in heaven

Oh - once in your life you find someone

Who will turn your world around

Bring you up when you're feelin' down

Ya - nothin' could change what you mean to me

Oh there's lots that I could say

But just hold me now

Cause our love will light the way

N' baby you're all that I want

When you're lyin' here in my arms

I'm findin' it hard to believe

We're in heaven

And love is all that I need

And I found it there in your heart

It isn't too hard to see

We're in heaven

I've been waitin' for so long

For something to arrive

For love to come along

Now our dreams are comin' true

Through the good times and the bad

Ya - I'll be standin' there by you

Born To Be My Baby

Rainy night and the worked all day

Both got jobs 'cause there's bills to play

We've got somethin' they can't take away

Our love, our lives

Close the door, leave the cold outside

Don't need nothin', by your side

We've got somethin' that won't never die

Our dreams, our pride

Beats like a drum

Flesh to flesh, one to one

I'll never let go

Somethin' I know deep inside

You were born to be my baby

I was made to be your man

We've got somethin' to believe in

If we don't know where we stand

Only God knows the reason

But He must have had a plan

'Cause you were born to be my baby

And I was made to be your man

Light a candle, blow the world away

Table for two on a TV tray

Nothin' ain't fancy, but that's okay

Our time, our way

Hold me close baby, hang on tight

Buckle your seats, for a bumpy ride

We're two kids hitchin' this road of life

Our world, our fights

Stand side by side

There's a chance we'll get by

I know that you'll live

In my heart till the day I die

You were born to be my baby

I was made to be your man

We have got to believe in

Even if we don't know where we stand

Only God knows the reason

But He must have had a plan

'Cause you were born to be my baby

I was made to be your man

My heart beats like a drum

Flesh to flesh, one to one

I'll never let go

There's somethin' I know deep inside

You were born to be my baby

I was made to be your man

We've got somethin' to believe in

If we don't know where we stand

God knows the reason

But He must have had a plan

'Cause you were born to be my baby

And I was made to be your man

Livin' On A Prayer

Once upon a time

Not so long ago

Tommy used to work on the docks

Union's been on strike

He's down on his luck...it's tough, so tough

Gina works the diner all day

Working for her man, she brings home her pay

For love - for love

She says: We've got to hold on to what we've got

It doesn't make a difference

If we make it or not

We've got each other and that's a lot

For love - we'll give it a shot

Ohh We're half way there

Woah Livin' on a prayer

Take my hand and we'll make it - I swear

Livin' on a prayer

Tommy's got his six string in hock

Now he's holding in what he used

To make it talk - so tough, it's tough

Gina dreams of running away

When she cries in the night

Tommy whispers: Baby it's okay, someday

We've got to hold on to what we've got

'Cause it doesn't make a difference

If we make it or not

We've got each other and that's a lot

For love - we'll give it a shot

Ohh We're half way there

Woah Livin' on a prayer

Take my hand and we'll make it - I swear

Livin' on a prayer

Livin' on a prayer

We've got to hold on ready or not

You live for the fight when thats all that you've got

Ohh We're half way there

Woah Livin' on a prayer

Take my hand and we'll make it - I swear

Woah Livin' on a prayer 

(Repeat to fade)

You Give Love A Bad Name

Shot through the heart

And you're  to blame

Darlin'you give love a bad name

An angel's smile is what you sell

You promise me heaven then put me through hell

Chains of love got a hold on me

When passion's a prison you can't break free

Woah! You're a loaded gun(yeah)

Whoa! There's no where to run

No one can save me

The damage is done

Shot through the heart

And you're to blame

You give love a bad name

I play my part and you play your game

You paint your smile on your lips

Blood red nails on your fingertips

A school boy's dream you act so shy

Your very first kiss was your first kiss goodbye

Whoa! You're a loaded gun

Whoa! There's nowhere to run

No one can save me

The damage is done

Shot through the heart

Blaze Of Glory

I wake up in the morning

And I raise my weary head

I've got an old coat for a pillow

And the earth was last night's bed

I don't know where I'm going

Only God knows where I've been

I'm a devil on the run

A six gun lover

A candle in the wind

When you're brought into this world

They say you're born in sin

Well at least they gave me something

I didn't have to steal or have to win

Well they tell me that I'm wanted

Yeah, I'm a wanted man

I'm a colt in your stable

I'm what Cain was to Abel

Mister catch me if you can

I'm going out in a blaze of glory

Take me now but know the truth

I'm going out in a blaze of glory

Lord I never drew first

But I drew first blood

I'm no one's son

Call me young gun

You ask about my conscience

And I offer you my soul

You ask if I'll grow to be a wise man

Well I ask if I'll grow old

You ask me if I've known love

And what it's like to sing songs in the rain

Well, I've seen love come

And I've seen it shot down

I've seen it die in vain

Shot down in a blaze of glory

Take me now but know the truth

'Cause I'm going down in a blaze of glory

Lord I never drew first

But I drew first blood

I'm the devil's son

Call me young gun

Solo

Each night I go to bed

I pray the Lord my soul to keep

No I ain't looking for forgiveness

But before I'm six foot deep

Lord, I got to ask a favor

And hope you'll understand

'Cause I've lived life to the fullest

Let this boy die like a man

Staring down a bullet

Let me make my final stand

Shot down in a blaze of glory

Take me now but know the truth

I'm going out in a blaze of glory

Lord I never drew first

But I drew first blood

And I'm no one's son

Call me young gun

I'm a young gun

I'll Be There For You

I guess this time you're really leaving

I heard your suitcase say goodbye

And as my broken heart lies bleeding

You say true love is suicide

You say you've cried a thousand rivers

And now you're swimming for the shore

You left me drowning in my tears

And you won't save me anymore

Now I'm praying to God you'll give me one more chance, girl

I'll be there for you

These five words I swear to you

When you breathe I want to be the air for you

I'll be there for you

I'd live and I'd die for you

I'd steal the sun from the sky for you

Words can't say what love can do

I'll be there for you

I know you know we've had some good times

Now they have their own hiding place

I can promise you tomorrow

But I can't buy back yesterday

And Baby you know my hands are dirty

But I wanted to be your valentine

I'll be the water when you get thirsty, baby

When you get drunk, I'll be the wine

I'll be there for you

These five words I swear to you

When you breathe I want to be the air for you

I'll be there for you

I'd live and I'd die for you

I'd steal the sun from the sky for you

Words can't say what love can do

I'll be there for you

*Solo*

And I wasn't there when you were happy

I wasn't there when you were down

I didn't mean to miss your birthday, baby

I wish I'd seen you blow those candles out

I'll be there for you

These five words I swear to you

When you breathe I want to be the air for you

I'll be there for you

I'd live and I'd die for you

I'd steal the sun from the sky for you

Words can't say what a love can do

I'll be there for...

I'll be there for you

These five words I swear to you

When you breathe I want to be the air for you

I'll be there for you

I'd live and I'd die for you

I'd steal the sun from the sky for you

Words can't say what a love can do

I'll be there for you
