Lyrical Response

[SinceThe70s]

Fast as a shark he'll cut out of the dark
He's a killer - he'll rip out your heart
On a one way track and you're not coming back
'Cause the killer's on the attack

[WhoTom]

You better stay away from him
He'll rip your lungs out, Jim
Huh, I'd like to meet his tailor.

[PastaJoe]

I'd like to meet the preacher who prayed
For the preacher who prayed with me down on my knees.
I'd like to shake the hand that reached
Out a hand to the hand that reached out to me.

[walstib]

Reach out your hand

if your cup be empty.

If your cup is full, 

may it be again.

Let it be known, 

there is a fountain,

that was not made,

by the hands of man.

[Bill from NYC]

There's a chapel in the pines
Waiting for us, around the bend
Picture in your mind
Love forever, but 'til then

If she gives me a sign that she wants to make time (stop)
I can't stop (stop) I can't stop myself (stop, stop)

Lightning is striking again
Lightning is striking again and again and again and again
Lightning is striking again and again and again and again

[WhoTom]

Come away, come away, if you're going
Leave the sinking ship behind.

Come on the rising wind
We're going up around the bend.

 

[PastaJoe]

Against the wind
We were runnin' against the wind
We were young and strong, we were runnin' against the wind

[DD4Bills]

Young enough not to care too much
About the way things used to be.
I’m young enough to remember the future —
The past has no claim on me.

 

I’m old enough not to care too much
About what you think of me.
But I’m young enough to remember the future
And the way things ought to be.

[WhoTom]

He's old enough to know what's right
And young enough not to choose it
He's noble enough to win the world
But weak enough to lose it

 

[SinceThe70s]

Oh, well, a young man
Ain't got nothin' in the world these days

[PastaJoe]

You used to be so amused
At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used
Go to him he calls you, you can't refuse
When you ain't got nothing, you got nothing to lose
You're invisible now, you've got no secrets to conceal

[Bill from NYC]

Nothin' can hold us and nothin' can keep us down

And someday our names will be spread all over town

We can get in while the getting is good

So make it on your own, yeah, you know that you could

Oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh

We got to make the break

'Cause we got too much at stake

Oh, we ain't got nothin' yet

No, we ain't got nothin' yet

[WhoTom]

Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose
Nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free.

 

[SinceThe70s]

Nothin' from nothin' leaves nothin'
You gotta have somethin' if you wanna be with me

[PastaJoe]

You've gotta have heart
All you really need is heart
When the odds are sayin' you'll never win
That's when the grin should start

[Bill from NYC]

As I walk this land of broken dreams
I have visions of many things
But happiness is just an illusion
Filled with sadness and confusion

What becomes of the broken hearted
Who had love that's now departed
I know I've got to find
Some kind of peace of mind
Maybe

[WhoTom]

As I walk through this wicked world
Searchin' for light in the darkness of insanity
I ask myself, "Is all hope lost?
Is there only pain and hatred and misery?"

And each time I feel like this inside
There's one thing I wanna know
What's so funny 'bout peace, love and understanding?
 

[PastaJoe]

Till some day they just cut it loose
Cut it loose or let it drag 'em down
Where no one asks any questions
Or looks too long in your face
In the darkness on the edge of town
In the darkness on the edge of town

[Bill from NYC]

Where are you going now my love?
Where will you be tomorrow?
Will you bring me happiness?
Will you bring me sorrow?

Oh, the questions of a thousand dreams
What you do and what you see
Lover can you talk to me?

[SinceThe70s]

Can this lovin' we have found within us
Ooh, suddenly exist between

Did we somehow try to make it happen
Ooh, was it just a natural thing

 

I'd like to know
Can you tell me, please don't tell me
It really doesn't matter anyhow
It's just that the thought of us so happy
Appears in my mind, as a beautifully mysterious thing
Yes it does now, baby
