Like A Prayer
Life is a mystery
Everyone must stand alone
I hear you call my name
And it feels like home
When you call my name
It's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees
I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour
I can feel your power
Just like a prayer
You know I'll take you there
I hear your voice
It's like an angel sighing
I have no choice
I hear your voice
Feels like flying
I close my eyes
Oh God I think I'm falling
Out of the sky
I close my eyes
Heaven help me
When you call my name
It's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees
I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour
I can feel your power
Just like a prayer
You know I'll take you there
Like a child
You whisper softly to me
You're in control
Just like a child
Now I'm dancing
It's like a dream
No end and no beginning
You're here with me
It's like a dream
Let the choir sing
When you call my name
It's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees
I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour
I can feel your power
Just like a prayer
You know I'll take you there
When you call my name
It's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees
I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour
I can feel your power
Just like a prayer
You know I'll take you there
Life is a mystery
Everyone must stand alone
I hear you call my name
And it feels like home
Just like a prayer
Your voice can take me there
Just like a muse to me
You are a mystery
Just like a dream
You are not what you seem
Just like a prayer
No choice
Your voice can take me there
Just like a prayer
I'll take you there
It's like a dream to me
Just like a prayer
Your voice can take me there
Just like a muse to me
You are a mystery
Just like a dream
You are not what you seem
Just like a prayer
No choice
Your voice can take me there

Express Yourself
Come on girls
Do you believe in love
'Cuz I got something to say about it
And it goes something like this
Don't go for second best baby
Put your love to the test you know you know you've got to
Make him express how he feels and maybe
Then you'll know your love is real
You don't need diamond rings or eighteen karat gold
Fancy cars that go very fast you know they never last no no
What you need is a big strong hand to
Lift you to your higher ground
Make you feel like a queen on a throne
Make him love you til you can't come down
You'll never come down
Don't go for second best baby
Put your love to the test you know you know you've got to
Make him express how he feels and maybe
Then you'll know your love is real
Long stem roses are the way to your heart but
He needs to start with your head
Satin sheets are very romantic what happens when you're not in bed
You deserve the best in life
So if the time isn't right then move on
Second best is never enough
You'll do much better baby on your own
Baby on your own
Don't go for second best baby
Put your love to the test you know you know you've got to
Make him express how he feels and maybe
Then you'll know your love is real
Express yourself
You've got to make him
Express himself
Hey hey hey hey
So if you want it right now
Make him show you how
Express what he's got
Oh baby ready or not
And when you're gone he might regret it
Think about the love he once had
Try to carry on
But he just won't get it
He'll be back on his knees
To express himself
You've got to make him
Express himself
Hey hey
What you need is a big strong hand to
Lift you to your higher ground
Make you feel like a queen on a throne
Make him love you til you can't come down
You'll never come down
And when you're gone he might regret it
Think about the love he once had
Try to carry on
But he just won't get it
He'll be back on his knees
So please
Don't go for second best baby
Put your love to the test you know you know you've got to
Make him express how he feels and maybe
Then you'll know your love is real
Express yourself
You've got to make him
Express himself
Hey hey hey hey
So if you want it right now
Make him show you how
Express what he's got
Oh baby ready or not
Express yourself
So you can respect yourself
Hey hey

Love Song
Are you wasting my time
Are you just being kind
Oh no baby
My love isn't blind
Are you wasting my time
Are you just being kind
Don't give me one of your lines
Say what you mean
Mean what you say
Don't go and throw our love away
God strike me dead if I did you wrong
This is not a love song
Are you just being kind.. no
Am I losing my mind.. losing your mind
Oh no baby
Are you wasting my time
Are you just being kind
Oh no baby
My love isn't blind
Are you wasting my time
Are you just being kind
Don't go give me one of your lines
Say what you mean
Mean what you say
Don't go and throw our love away
God strike me dead if I did you wrong
This is not a love song
Ooh are you just being kind
Am I losing my mind
Don't Wait
Time goes by so slowly for those who wait
And those who run
Seem to have all the fun
But am I wasting my time.. she's so fine
Are you just being kind.. no
Come try to tell me what your enemies taught you
Show them never how I didn't do you wrong
That this is not a love song
Are you just being kind.. no
Am I losing my mind.. losing your mind
Oh no baby.. oh ya
Are you wasting my time.. wasting my time
Are you just being kind
Oh no baby
My love isn't blind
Are you wasting my time.. time time time
Are you just being kind
Don't go give me one of your lines
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
That's how I feel
Don't fog my mind
Mean what you say or baby I am gone
This is not a love song
Are you just being kind
Am I losing my mind
Love song
Love song
Don't try to tell me what your enemies taught you
I'm gone but I just want you to know
That this is not a love song
That I want to sing

Till Death Do Us Part
Our luck is running out of time
You're not in love with me anymore
I wish that it would change but it won't
'Cuz you don't love me no more
You need so much but not from me
Turn your back in my hour of need
Something's wrong but you pretend you don't see
I think I interrupt your life
When you laugh it cuts me just like a knife
I'm not your friend I'm just your little wife
Our luck is running out of time
You're not in love with me anymore
I wish that it would change but it won't if you don't
Our luck is running out of time
You're not in love with me anymore
I wish that it would change but it won't
'Cuz you don't love me no more
They never laugh
Not like before
She takes the keys
He breaks the door
She cannot stay
Here anymore
He's not in love with her anymore
The bruises they will fade away
You hit so hard with the things you say
I will not stay to watch your hate as it grows
You're not in love with someone else
You don't even love yourself
Still I wish you'd ask me not to go
Our luck is running out of time
You're not in love with me anymore
I wish that it would change but it won't if you don't
Our luck is running out of time
You're not in love with me anymore
I wish that it would change but it won't
'Cuz you don't love me no more
He takes a drink
She goes inside
He starts to scream
The vases fly
He wishes that
She wouldn't cry
He's not in move with her anymore
He makes demands
She draws the line
He starts the fight
She starts the lie
But what is truth
When something dies
He's not in love with her anymore
You're not in love with someone else
You don't even love yourself
Still I wish you'd ask me not to go
Our luck is running out of time
You're not in love with me anymore
I wish that it would change but it won't if you don't
Our luck is running out of time
You're not in love with me anymore
I wish that it would change but it won't
'Cuz you don't love me no more
They never laugh
Not like before
She takes the keys
He breaks the door
She cannot stay
Here anymore
He's not in love with her anymore
He takes a drink
She goes inside
He starts to scream
The vases fly
He wishes that
She wouldn't cry
He's not in love with her anymore
He makes demands
She draws the line
He starts the fight
She starts the lie
But what is truth
When something dies
He's not in love with her anymore
She's had enough
She says the end
But she'll come back
She knows it then
A chance to start it all again
Til death do us part

Promise To Try
Little girl
Don't you forget her face
Laughing away your tears
When she was the one who felt all the pain
Little girl
Never forget her eyes
Keep them alive inside
I promise to try
It's not the same
Keep your head held high.. ride like the wind
Never look behind life isn't fair
That's what you said so I try not to care
Little girl
Don't run away so fast
I think you forgot to kiss.. kiss her goodbye
Will she see me cry when I stumble and fall
Does she hear my voice in the night when I call
Wipe away all your tears it's gonna be all right
I fought to be so strong
I guess you knew I was afraid
You'd go away too
Little girl
You've got to forget the past
And learn to forgive me
I promise to try.. but it feels like a lie
Don't let memory play games with your mind
She's a faded smile frozen in time
I'm still hanging on.. but I'm doing it wrong
Can't kiss her goodbye.. but I promise to try

Of always having you here by my side

And baby I perish the thought
Of ever leaving I never would

So don't underestimate my point of view
Cherish the thought
Of always having you here by my side
Oh baby I cherish the joy

So don't underestimate my point of view

Dear Jessie
Baby face don't grow so fast
Make a special wish that will always last
Rub this magic lantern
He will make your dreams come true
For you
Ride the rainbow to the other side
Catch a falling star and then take a ride
To the river that sings and the clover that
Brings good luck to you
It's all true
Pink elephants and lemonade dear Jessie
Hear the laughter running through the love parade
Candy kisses and a sunny day dear Jessie
See the roses raining on the love parade
If the land of make believe
Is inside your heart it will never leave
There's a golden gate where the fairies all wait
And dancing moons
For you
Close your eyes and you'll be there
Where the mermaids sing as they comb their hair
Like a fountain of gold you can never grow old
Where dreams are made
Your love parade
Pink elephants and lemonade dear Jessie
Hear the laughter running through the love parade
Candy kisses and a sunny day dear Jessie
See the roses raining on the love parade
Your dreams are made inside your love parade
It's a holiday inside your love parade
On the merry-go-round of lovers and white turtle doves
Leprechauns floating by
This is your lullaby
Sugarplum fingertips kissing your honey lips
Close your eyes sleepy head
Is it time for your bed
Never forget what I said
Hang on you're already there
Close your eyes and you'll be there
Where the mermaids sing as they comb their hair
Like a fountain of gold you can never grow old
Where dreams are made
Your love parade
Pink elephants and lemonade dear Jessie
Hear the laughter running through the love parade
Candy kisses and a sunny day dear Jessie
See the roses raining on the love parade
Your dreams are made inside your love parade
It's a holiday inside your love parade

Oh Father
It's funny that way
You can get used
To the tears and the pain
What a child will believe
You never loved me
You can't hurt me now
I got away from you
I never thought I would
You can't make me cry
You once had the power
I never felt so good about myself
Seems like yesterday
I lay down next to your boots and I prayed
For your anger to end
Oh Father I have sinned
You can't hurt me now
I got away from you
I never thought I would
You can't make me cry
You once had the power
I never felt so good about myself
Oh Father
You never wanted to live that way
You never wanted to hurt me
Why am I running away
Oh Father
You never wanted to live that way
You never wanted to hurt me
Why am I running away
Maybe someday
When I look back I'll be able to say
You didn't mean to be cruel
Somebody hurt you too
You can't hurt me now
I got away from you
I never thought I would
You can't make me cry
You once had the power
I never felt so good
You can't hurt me now
I got away from you
I never thought I would
You can't make me cry
You once had the power
I never felt so good about myself

Keep It Together
Keep keep it together
Forever keep keep it together
Keep keep it together
Forever keep keep it together
Keep keep it together
Forever keep keep it together
Keep keep it together
Forever keep keep it together
I got brothers
I got some sisters too
Stuck in the middle
Tell you what I'm gonna do
Gonna get out of here
I'm gonna leave this place
So I can forget
Every single hungry face
I'm tired of sharing all the hand me downs
To get attention
I must always be the clown
I wanna be different
I wanna be on my own
But Daddy said listen
You will always have a home
Keep it together in the family
They're a reminder of your history
Brothers and sisters they hold the key
To your heart and your soul
Don't forget that your family is gold
I hit the big time
But I still get the blues
Everyone's a stranger
City life can get to you
People can be so cold
Never want to turn your back
Just givin' to get something
Always wanting something back
When I get lonely and I need to be
Loved for who I am not what they want to see
Brothers and sisters
They've always been there for me
We have a connection
Home is where the heart should be
Keep it together in the family
They're a reminder of your history
Brothers and sisters they hold the key
To your heart and your soul
Don't forget that your family is gold
When I look back on all the misery
And all the heartache that they brought to me
I wouldn't change it for another chance
'Cuz blood is thicker than any other circumstance
Keep keep it together
Forever keep keep it together
Keep keep it together
Forever keep keep it together
When I get lonely and I need to be
Loved for who I am not what they want to see
Brothers and sisters
They've always been there for me
We have a connection
Home is where the heart should be
When I look back on all the misery
And all the heartache that they brought to me
I wouldn't change it for another chance
'Cuz blood is thicker than any other circumstance
Keep it together in the family
They're a reminder of your history
Brothers and sisters they hold the key
To your heart and your soul
Don't forget that your family is gold
Keep, keep it together
Keep people together forever and ever
Keep, keep it together
Keep people together forever and ever
(repeat)

Spanish Eyes
I know for sure his heart is here with me
Though I wish him back I know he cannot see
My hands trembling
I know he hears me sing
I light this candle and watch it throw
Tears on my pillow
And if there is a Christ
He'll come tonight
To pray for Spanish eyes
And if I have nothing left to show
Tears on my pillow
What kind of life is this
If God exists
Then help me pray for Spanish eyes
He had to fight like all the rest
In the barrio all the streets are paved with fear
I don't understand
At least he was a man
I light this candle and watch it throw
Tears on my pillow
And if there is a Christ
He'll come tonight
To pray for Spanish eyes
And if I have nothing left to show
Tears on my pillow
What kind of life is this
If God exists
Then help me pray for Spanish eyes
How many lives will they have to take
How much heartache
How many suns will they have to burn
Spanish eyes
When will they ever learn
You were not the Maravilla in our minds
We were proud to fight but we cannot win this blind
Stand your guns against the wall
Who's next in line to fall
I light this candle and watch it throw
Tears on my pillow
And if there is a Christ
He'll come tonight
To pray for Spanish eyes
And if I have nothing left to show
Tears on my pillow
What kind of life is this
If God exists
Then help me pray for Spanish eyes
How many lives will they have to take
How much heartache
How many suns will they have to burn
Spanish eyes
When will they ever learn

Act Of Contrition
Oh my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended Thee
And I detest all my sins because of Thy just punishment
But most of all, because I have offended Thee, Oh my God
Who art all good and deserving of all my love
I firmly resolve with the help of Thy grace
To confess my sins, to do penance, to amend my life,
And to avoid the temptations of evil
Oh my God
I am heartily sorry
For having offended Thee
And I detest
All my sins
Because of Thy
Just punishment
But most of all
Because my God
I have offended Thee
Who art all good
Like I knew you would
And deserving of all
My love
I reserve
I reserve
I reserve
I reserve
I resolve
I have a reservation
I have a reservation!!
What you do you mean it's not in the computer??!!

Supernatural
Made your acquaintance late one night
You were floating around, you know you gave me quite a fright
You didn't seem like an ordinary man
More like a ray of light
You transcendentally imposed yourself upon my bed
You know you didn't say very much
I'm out of body and I feel so good in my head
You know I'm really quite touched
I wake up with your fragrance and it's all over me
What cologne do you wear?
I walk around with a smile on my face, 'cause you're close to me
Well I know you're somewhere
Gonna take my chance on a different kind of romance
A supernatural thing
Gonna have my fill, it gives me such a big thrill to be with
A supernatural thing
You say you've lived here for quite some time
And I'd say that your skills as a lover are very refined
You know just what I want and I don't have to ask
Are you reading my mind?
You're not demanding for a man, that's really quite rare
You're not the least bit obsessed with your hair
You're not upset when I come home later than ten
For a ghost you're a very good friend
I've got to be a very careful, never know what the neighbors would say
They already think I'm crazy
I wouldn't like to wake up and find myself in the family way
A ghost baby?
I can't see you
I know you're out there you little rascal
Stop that
Gonna take my pants off for a different kind of romance
That super-duper naturally big thing
It's outrageously large
