HEAVEN ONLY KNOWS

Heaven only knows
Where I'll sing my song tonight
If the road I chose had been the low
But I took the high road
Was a long, long way to go
And it let me right up to your door
Oh, and now you and I are about to say goodbye
To our cares and woes
Heaven only knows
What you ever saw in me
Your simple show of faith
Helped me carry on
And in my heart
Oh, and deep down in my soul
I know that all my fears and my troubles will be gone
Did life throw me a curve
Or is this something I deserve
Do you suppose?
Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows
What lies in store for us
Just playin' our hand come what may
No, I ain't gonna worry
'Cos whatever comes our way
I know we got to stop and smell the roses every day
Though my fears may have gone
Still I wonder from now on
Where our love goes
Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows what lies in store
Heaven only knows what lies ahead
Oh, what lies ahead
Heaven only knows what lies in store
Heaven only knows what lies in store
Heaven only knows what lies ahead
Heaven only knows what lies in store
What lies in store
Heaven only knows what lies ahead
For us all...

VOODOO DANCE
03:55
|

Whenever you do that Voodoo
It puts me in a trance
Why don't you do that Voodoo dance
Whenever you do that Voodoo
It puts me in a trance
Why don't you do that Voodoo dance
Loving you makes perfect sense
It's one on one in the present tense
It's a whirlpool and I'm gonna dive on in
Bolt the door, dim the lights
Let the carnival begin
Let the carnival begin
Whenever you do that Voodoo
It puts me in a trance
Why don't you do that Voodoo dance
Whenever you do that Voodoo
It puts me in a trance
Why don't you do that Voodoo dance
You're a masterpiece of modern art
You've got a sacred soul in a sacred heart
You know, I'm in love with you
Oh, and Baby! It's my thing
And I thank my lucky starts
For the wonderland I'm in
For the wonderland I'm in
Whether or not it's magic
I'm in the hands of the divine
Whether or not it's magic
I get a tingle up and down my spine
A tingle up and down my spine
Whenever you do that Voodoo
It puts me in a trance
Why don't you do that Voodoo dance
Whenever you do that Voodoo
It puts me in a trance
Why don't you do that Voodoo dance
Come on Baby, and shake that thing
Show me your sacred soul
Come on Baby, and do your thing
Do it to me, come on!
Whenever you do that Voodoo
It puts me in a trance
Why don't you do that Voodoo dance
Whenever you do that Voodoo
It puts me in a trance
Why don't you do that Voodoo dance

NATHALIE
05:26

They made it tough
They made it hard for her
But she tried to survive
And get through each day
Though she was strong
And made of better stuff
She felt guilty
Longed to live another way
She packed her bags
Along with all her dreams
Took a ride on a train
Toward the city lights
But she found out
Things just weren't what they seemed
And now her great plan
Has gone another way
An her name is Nathalie
she came from straight from gay Paris
Yes, Siree!
She'll make you want to say "mais oui!"
She's only doin' whatever comes naturally
Just dial seven five six seven oh oh three
She had it made in the material sense
Oh, but deep in her heart
There was an empty place
She fell in love
And things were looking good
Till he found out that she'd lived another way
An her name is Nathalie
she came from straight from gay Paris
Yes, Siree!
She'll make you want to say "mais oui!"
She's only doin' whatever comes naturally
Just dial seven five six seven oh oh three
And her name is Nathalie
She'll take you all around the world instantaneously
And she works in the quarter down in New Orleans
She'll do the one-two respectively
She's only doin' the things that come so naturally
just dial seven five six seven oh oh three
That's alright!
She's had it rough
Life has been hard for her
But she's tried to survive
And get through each day
'Cos she was strong
And made of better stuff
She holds her head high
Respectable, respectfully
An her name is Nathalie
She'll do anything you want but it's not for free!

JUST BECAUSE
03:52
|
|||
There's a million and one good reasons why
If I needed my love for you to justify
But I love you
Just because you walk into the room
You brighten up my day, Dear
Just because of the scent of your perfume
All my worries disappear
It's a mystery, a sweet mystery
How you do these things to me
There's a million and one good reasons why
If I needed my love for you to justify
But I love you just because...
Just because of the sparkle in your eyes
My soul is on fire
Just because your kiss is hotter than July
Keeps me burning with desire
It's a mystery, a sweet mystery
How you do these things to me
There's a million and one good reasons why
If I needed my love for you to justify
But I love you just because...
There's a million and one good reasons why
If I needed my love for you to justify
But I love you just because...
There's a million and one good reasons why
If I needed my love for you to justify
But I love you just because...
Yes, I do, I love you
Just because...

IT'S EASY IF YOU TRY
04:32
|
|||
Oh, it's easy if you try
You can kiss your blues bye bye
My life was one big complication
Caught between a rock and a place that was hard
Then one day I had a sweet visitation
It was you appeared in a leopard-skin leotard
Said it's easy if you try
You'll do more than just get by
Yes, it's easy when you try
You can kiss all your blues goodbye
Our life was a blissful celebration
We believed it would last forever and a day
Then came the trials and the tribulations
But we turned those lemons into lemonade
Oh, it's easy if you try
You'll do more than just get by
Yes, it's easy when you try
You can kiss all your blues goodbye
Though I might say it's easy
I know just how hard easy can be
Sometimes I drive you a little crazy
And you do me
So let's sit down with a nice cup of rosie
Work our own destiny
'Cos it's easy if you try
You'll do more than just get by
Yes, it's easy when you try
You can kiss all your blues goodbye
You're still my one and only inspiration
Touch me and I'm all tongue twist and tied
Gotta work, work, work
To keep up this fascination
24/7 till the day we die
Oh, it's easy if you try
Oh, it's easy, yes it is
Yes, it's easy when you try
Oh, it's easy if you try
Help me, help me try
You can kiss your blues bye bye
You can kiss your blues goodbye
Oh, it's easy if you try
Oh, it's easy, yes it is
Yes, it's easy when you try
Oh, it's easy if you try
Help me, help me try
You can kiss your blues bye bye
You can kiss your blues goodbye

FLYING HIGH
03:59
|
|||
At the end of '99
We were singing 'Aud Lang's Syne
At a party with some friends in Battersea
Captured by your smile
I was speechless for a while
I knew you were the one for me
I got a funny little tingling
Up and down my spine
Working that ol' magic on me
I've heard it said before
When your heart begins to soar
Say goodbye to misery!
I'm flying high in the sky
I'm ready to sanctify
Whoa, I'm flying high in the sky
If you'll be my girl
Come fly with me around the world
Casablanca, New York City, Gay Paree
Got a crazy wild idea
If you trust in me, my Dear
On safari we could be
Oh, now that I've got you
Right under my skin
You've become a great part of me
If you'd like perchance
To build on this romance
Come fly with me!
I'm flying high in the sky
I'm ready to sanctify
I'm flying high in the sky
Whoah, yeah
An' I can't come down!
Oh, no I won't come down!
Darling, I'll never come down!
'Cos I'm flying so high
Way up there in the sky
Flying high in the sky
Now we've set the date
It's time for us to celebrate
We'll invite the whole neighbourhood
I will wear your ring
And together we can sing
"Just Because" - it feels good!
I still get a tingling up and down my spine
Working that ol' magic on me
Like I said before
When your heart begins to soar
Say goodbye to misery!
I'm flying high in the sky
I'm ready to sanctify
I'm flying high in the sky
Whoah, yeah
I'm flying high in the sky
I'm ready to sanctify
I'm way up there in the sky
Whoah, yeah
I'm flying high in the sky
I'm ready to sanctify
I'm flying in the sky
An' I can't come down!
Oh, no I won't come down!
Darling, I'll never come down!
'Cos I'm flying high
Flying high in a friendly sky

OH!
05:07
|

Oh! Oh! Oh oh oh!
Oh oh oh oh!
Oh! Oh! Oh, oh oh oh!
Oh oh oh oh!
It was a long time ago
Down in Mexico
In a little shack by the sea
Nowhere to go
Just taking it slow
Nothing much mattered to me
I was on the run from almost everyone
Tryna steal away from the past
Having some Fundador and more
That bender could have been my last
Then into my space came a sweet angel face
Thought I'd died and gone to Heaven
She took me in hand and on her command
We made love twenty-four-seven
Now I'm not a guy who's easily tongue-tied
But all I could say was
Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh oh oh oh!
Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh oh oh oh!
Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh oh oh oh!
So we went with the flow
It was magnifico
Our life was muy bien
But the pendulum swings
And like all good things
This too came to an end
So I found myself back
In my little shack
I've hit rock bottom again
Feels like I'm going insane
So I ease the pain with
El Fundador, my old friend
But just when I curse
That it cannot get worse
I think I'm not long for this world
I look through the haze
And into the gaze
Of a lovely Mexican girl
We could speak if we could
But she understood
When all I could say was
Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh oh oh oh!
Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh oh oh oh!
Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh oh oh oh!
We could speak if we could
But she understood
When all I could say was
Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh oh oh oh!
Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh oh oh oh!
Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh oh oh oh!
Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh oh oh oh!
Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh oh oh oh!
Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh oh oh oh!
We would speak if we could
But I know she understood
When I said
Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh oh oh oh!
Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh oh oh oh!
We would speak if we could
But I really understood
When she said
Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh oh oh oh!
Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh oh oh oh!

THE BEAUTY
04:26
|
|||
I didn't know your name
Till after I'd witnessed your demise
Let me try to explain
How it opened up my eyes
You've been released from your pain
To a kind of paradise
To the beauty of being free
Oh, of being free
And on that fateful day
Our lives became intertwined
How I wish there'd been a way
To help you
Oh, but now I'm resigned
To the idea that it may
Have allowed you to find
The beauty of being free
Oh, of being free
Oh, the beauty
The beauty of being free
But now life goes on
And I'm trying to keep my ducks in a row
I stop sometimes to reflect upon
How like you, we've all gotta go
And one thing when I'm dead and gone
It will be my turn to know
The beauty of being free
Oh, of being free
Oh, the beauty
The beauty of being free

WHEN YOUR LOVE HAS GONE
04:30
|

IT’S SO HARD TO BEGIN LIFE ALL OVER AGAIN WHEN YOUR WORLD HAS TURNED UPSIDE DOWN
THERE’S A HOLE WHERE THERE ONCE WAS A HEART
WHEN YOUR LOVE HAS GONE
THERE ARE CLOUDS AND IT’S GREY WHERE THERE USED TO BE NOTHING BUT SUNNY DAYS
AND YOU SEARCH FOR THE WILL TO GO ON
WHEN YOUR LOVE HAS GONE
OH, THE MOON AND THE STARS IN THE SKY TOLD YOU LIES THAT YOU CAN’T BELIEVE
BUT EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE SO DON’T GIVE UP
TRY TO FIND A NEW LOVE TO FILL THAT EMPTY SPACE
AND HOPE THAT THERE WILL NEVER COME ANOTHER DAY
WHEN YOUR LOVE HAS GONE
EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE SO DON’T GIVE UP
TRY TO FIND A NEW LOVE TO FILL THAT EMPTY SPACE
OH, AND HOPE THAT THERE WILL NEVER COME ANOTHER DAY
WHEN YOUR LOVE HAS GONE
THERE ARE CLOUDS AND IT’S GREY WHERE USED TO BE NOTHING BUT SUNNY DAYS
THERE’S A HOLE WHERE THERE ONCE WAS A HEART
WHEN YOUR LOVE HAS GONE
WHEN YOUR LOVE HAS GONE
WHEN YOUR LOVE HAS GONE - DON’T GIVE UP!
TRY TO FIND A NEW LOVE AND HOPE THAT THERE WILL NEVER
COME ANOTHER DAY
WHEN YOUR LOVE HAS GONE AWAY
