Chinese Whispers (Demo) (REMASTER ONLY)
. . .


So tired of waiting I walked an empty
land,
I was looking for something to help
me understand,
But bad luck kept turning,
My dreams into sand,

I didn't want pity,
I had my share of friends,
I wanted somebody,
More special than the rest,
I was aching inside,
Like I was approaching the end,

Just about that moment,
The timing was so right,
You appeared like a vision,
Sent down to my life,
I thought I was dreaming,
When I saw you that night,

That's when love walked in through
my door,
That familiar feeling I had once
before,
Love walked in through my door,
And it felt so strange,

It's hard to remember being on my
own,
That kind of loving makes a hard man
lose control,
But I sleep so much better,
Now I'm not alone,

So promise me baby,
You're always gonna stay,
I don't think I could take it,
Seeing you walk away,
You don't need to doubt it,
I remember that day,

That's when love walked in through
my door,
I found just what I wanted,
But I got so much more,
Love walked in through my door,
And it felt so strange,
Like a long lost friend that hadn't
changed,
Giving me hope again,
Love walked in,
Love walked in,
Love,

Just about that moment,
The timing was so right,
You appeared like a vision,
Sent down to my life,
I thought I was dreaming,
When I saw you that night,

That's when love walked in through
my door,
That familiar feeling I had once
before,
Love walked in through my door,

Love walked in through my door,
That familiar feeling I had it once
before,
Love walked in through my door,
And it felt so strange,
Like a long lost friend that hadn't
changed,
Giving me hope again,
Love walked in,
Love walked in,
Love,
Love walked in,
Love walked in.


. . .


Now I look out my window
To the street so far below
And I pray I'll see you approaching
Don't know why you had to go
It's been so long but I feel no better
I've gotta say I'm still so alone
Will I ever get used to this feeling
And the nights so long and cold

When all I want to do is hold you
But all I see to do is cry
And all you had to say the day you walked away
Was Don't wait for me, goodbye

All my friends they smile when they see me
I guess they know what I'm going through
They don't mention your name to protect me
Now what am I supposed to do?

When all I want to do is hold you
But all I see to do is cry
And the last thing that you said
and it's ringing round my head
Was Don't wait for me, goodbye

How can I replace you?
How am I gonna get through every night?
All the time I wasted
All the pain I tasted for you
I'm losing my mind.....

(Solo)

All I want to do is hold you
But all I see to do is cry
And all you had to say the day you walked away
Was Don't wait for me, goodbye

. . .


I can see the fading sun
Sinking at the edge of town
And it's one more day that's gone
I'm thinking 'bout the past
And the time that slipped away
But I can't change what I've done

Chasing after foolish dreams
I should've let go but I just can't seem to stop
I don't deserve your loving baby
I don't know why you stay

There's a child within the man
And it's keeping me keeping on
Yet you always understand
The future can't be planned
But I'm gonna keep fighting on
While I've still got two strong hands

Maybe I'll change someday
Maybe I'll chase those dreams away
I need you by my side now baby
'cos you're the price that I won't pay

Girl you're the only one to light a fire inside me
You're the only woman that can make me feel this way

I want to stay with you forever
I'll never let you go
Until my dying day

(Solo)

Chasing after foolish dreams
I should've let go but I just can't seem to stop
I don't deserve your loving baby
And I don't know why you stay

Hey baby you're the only one to light a fire inside me
You're the only woman that can make me feel this way

I want to stay with you forever
I'll never let you go
Until my dying day
Until my dying day

I don't deserve your loving baby
I don't know why you stay
I need you by my side now baby
'cos you're the price that I won't pay

I don't deserve your loving baby
I don't know why you stay
I need you by my side now baby
I don't know, I don't know

. . .


Mama, tell your children not to go
Down to the city, where the
desperate people go
And mama, don't let them stray
They won't find, peace of mind, in
such a lonely place
Wannabes and losers, all trying to get
a break
They don't give a damn, they'll do
whatever it takes
If they climb the ladder, they get to
play for higher stakes
That's why there's low life in high
places

Mama, things have changed since
you were young
When you scream, in the dead of
night
Now no one ever comes
And a poor man, he's cast as the
villan and a thief
See him down on the street, begging
for enough to eat

Waiting on the corner, I saw her
waiting for the man
When the limo pulled up I saw what
was changing hands
I should've tried to warn her, and
make her understand
There is low life in high places

There is low life, like you never even
knew
There is low life, and it lives in me and
you
But we don't all let it through

Don't let 'em go, you've got to have
some pity
Don't you let 'em go
You've got to keep 'em away, from
the big bad city

(SOLO)

Waiting on the corner, I saw her
waiting for the man
When the limo pulled up I saw what
was changing hands
I should've tried to warn her, and
make her understand

Mama, tell your children not to go
Down to the city, where the
desperate people go
And mama, don't you let them stray
They won't find, peace of mind in
such a lonely place


. . .


Once in a while, I drift in time
To a place in my memory, that it still
hurts to find
I was taking on the world with a see-
through smile
But dying on the inside all the while
I was, dying on the inside all the
while

Like a martyr that don't want
sympathy
I locked away my feelings, and
threw away the key
It was gonna take a miracle to pierce
my pride
And you were the tower of strength
to try
When your loving washed right over
me like the tide

And now I believe in love (I believe
in love)
I believe in love (I believe in love)
You're the reason why I can
Cos when I look, at myself, in the
mirror
I see a better man
A better man
Yes its hard finding words that can
say how I feel about you
I don't care if it sounds like another
old cliche
But I can't stand the thought of
living my life without you
For even a day

Oh baby

And now I believe in love (I believe
in love)
Yes I believe in love (I believe in
love)
You're the reason why I can
Cos when I look, at myself, in the
mirror
Oh baby
When I look at myself in the mirror
When I'm looking at myself in the
mirror
I see a better man


. . .


I can't believe the conversation we just had, came like a bolt out of the blue
You said you couldn't see a future anymore for me and you

It feels like someone's dropped a bomb upon my life
And I can't help wondering who's to blame
You thrust a dagger oh so deep into my heart
And I'm slain, all you left me is the pain

'Cos you stole my soul, then you broke my heart
And I don't know why, but I'm still yearning
Darling in my mind you've frozen the hands of time
Because today the world stopped turning

I was numb at first but now it's sinking in
Don't think I've felt this way before
It wasn't easy but I let my feelings show, and you slammed the door

I gave you all the space you needed in your life
How could I give you anymore?
You told me that you really didn't understand
So what's the score, what did I take the trouble for?

'Cos you stole my soul, then you broke my heart
And I don't know why, but I'm still yearning
Darling in my mind you've frozen the hands of time
Because today the world stopped turning

The world stopped turning

(Solo)

I gave you all the space you needed in your life
How could I give you anymore?
You told me that you really didn't understand
So what's the score, what did I take the trouble for?

'Cos you stole my soul, then you broke my heart
And I don't know why, but I'm still yearning
Darling in my mind you've frozen the hands of time
Because today the world stopped turning

The world stopped turning

You lit the fire and I'm still burning, yes I'm burning

. . .


In the quiet of evening I start to drift away,
Imagining a place where you'll be starting off your day,
I fight the distance with a picture in my head,
But I don't know when I'll see you,
I guess I'll have to dream instead,
You're so far away,

If I could be I'd be with you,
Even if for just one day.

Cos if I close my eyes and dream on,
I can fool myself in sound and vision,
Like a satellite reaching out through the night,
I could almost be touching you.

And when we're talking long distance on the phone,
You know it makes me feel like I'm not so alone,
The situation never causes me pain,
The communication that we have is on another plane,

All the waiting makes me stronger,
And the time between us flies

Whenever I close my eyes and dream on,
I can fool myself in sound and vision,
Like a satellite reaching out through the night,
I could almost be touching you.

If I could be I'd be with you,
Even if for just one day,
Those miles between us,
They'd just start fading away.

Whenever I close my eyes and dream on,
I can fool myself in sound and vision,
Like a satellite reaching out through the night,
I could almost be touching you.

. . .


There must have been a moment
A second or a time
When I didn't look up
Or I missed some kind of sign
Turned the wrong direction
When she was just an inch away
Like a missed connection
And my future slipped away

There's been times when I feel like I'm conspired against by fate
It's almost bad enough to make me hate

I'm sick of building castles in the sand
Waiting for another fake to break my promised land
I've been looking for the real thing in a lonely one night stand
Just building castles in the sand

Cos it terrifies me, ending up alone
And it walks beside me, the ghost of chances gone
Did I have it, did I let it go,
Or close the door to fast?
Is there an answere locked up in my past
In my past...

I'm sick of building castles in the sand
Waiting for another fake to break my promised land
I've been looking for the real thing in a lonely one night stand
Just building castles in the sand

I've been dying, I've been living alone so long
Going over and over the reasons, but I can't find a thing that's wrong
In my mind all the evidence seems to say
I wouldn't even know it if she walked right in today

I'm sick of building castles in the sand
Waiting for another fake to break my promised land
I've been looking for the real thing in a lonely one night stand
Just building castles in the sand

In A Broken Dream

[Нет текста]

. . .


Should you ever change your mind
About leaving everything we had behind
It don't matter, for whatever length of time
I'll be waiting

Things are always gonna change
Every day is like another unread page
So if you ever feel the gypsy in you age
I'll be waiting

Cos I'm sure one day, that you're gonna find
That there's an answer to the questions in your mind
And when you realise that the answer's inside
I'll be waiting

So don't you cry now,don't be sad
Just keep the memory of the good times that we had
You might discover,going back aint all that bad
I'll be waiting, I'll be waiting forever

Cos I'm sure one day, that you're gonna find
That there's an answer to the questions in your mind
And when you realise that the answer's are there inside
I'll be waiting, I'll be waiting

Should you ever change your mind
About leaving everything we had behind
It don't matter, any place or any time
I'll be waiting
Mmm I'll Be waiting
I'll be waiting
I'll be waiting

. . .


She can't see him stumbling through the door
She don't hear him laying down the law
She can't feel him strike her to the floor
She can't reach him, there's no use anymore

Tells herself she's still the man she loves
She cries till the river runs dry
And he'll be sorry when the morning comes
She cries till the river runs dry
Till the river runs dry

She remembers the way it used to be
They were young then amd life was so carefree
Every mountain was small enough to climb
She hangs on to every memory sublime

As he slips into a restless sleep
She cries till the river runs dry
And she blames the whole world for his scars so deep
She cries till the river runs dry
Till the river runs dry

There were so many times before,
When she'd walked right out the door
She's tried so hard to leave him
But when she sees him breaking down
He knows she'll come around
She can't see past his tears, or all those years

Tells herself she's still the man she loves
She cries till the river runs dry
And he'll be sorry when the morning comes
She cries till the river runs dry
Till the river runs dry
Till the river runs dry

Till the river's all run dry

She can't reach him
There's no use anymore

. . .


Tired and weary and fraying at the seams
So disillusioned
I'd forgotten how to dream for just a while
I knew a change would have to come.
So wrapped up in myself
That I couldn't see the truth
But the moment I looked up
I knew I'd seen the future in your eyes
And my life had just begun.

Cos they can take away the sun and rain
And everything I've ever owned
Let them have it all
Cos you give me something more
A love worth dying for.

It's been such a long time since I felt so strong inside
I know you're the reason
And the words can't quite express the way I feel
But they're all I have to use.
Oh!
Cos there ain't nothing in this Universe
Can hold a candle next to you
And now my life's complete
Since you opened up the door
With a love worth dying for.

In the morning when the sunlight hits your face
It's such a beautiful collision that nothing could replace.

Cos they can take away the sun and rain
And everything I've ever owned
Let them have it all
Cos you give me something more…
Oh Baby!
Cos there ain't nothing in this Universe
Can hold a candle next to you
And now my life's complete
Since you opened up the door
With a love worth dying for.

. . .


I felt the cold today, winter's coming on
Clouds are steel grey and all the leaves are gone
But every day's the same since you took away the sun

I'm out of cigarettes, I must've smoked them all last night
I should eat I know, but I've got no appetite
I wonder where you are
And if you feel my sorrow

'Cause you won't ever know what a mess you left me in
I wish you could feel it for a day
'Cause you abandoned me
As pain and misery descend
I know I've lost a lover, not a friend

Now I don't once recall ever feeling quite so bad
You shattered all those dreams of the future that we had
I hate my stupidity
As much as what you've done to me, oh

So don't you kid yourself that you're ever coming back
'cause even if you beg and pray
You won't convince this man
'Cause there's no feelings left to lend
I've lost a lover, not a friend

I hope your latest squeeze is a smarter guy than me
I hope he keeps his faith and trust under lock and key
And just for old times' sake
I hope your heart he'll break, oh

'Cause you won't ever know what a mess you left me in
I wish you could feel it for a day
'Cause you abandoned me
As pain and misery descend
I know I've lost a lover, not a friend

You won't convince this man
'Cause there's no feelings left to lend
I've lost a lover, not a friend

. . .


I couldn't sleep last night, listening to the sound in my head
I couldn't fight it, so I thought I'd walk the street instead,
Then it started to rain, and all the guilt and the pain
just for a moment, I felt it washing away
Today was just the same, wondering when the feeling would pass,
I rearranged the room, but it didn't help me shake off the past, oh no

I can still see your face, frozen in time and in space
And I don't know, if I can take any more

'Cos all I ever wanted was you
But in a moment of weakness, I broke it in two
All i ever wanted was you
Just say you love me

I can still see your face, frozen in time and in space (Mmm)
And I don't know (I don't know), if I can take any, any more

'Cos all I ever wanted was you
But in a moment of weakness, I broke it in two
All i ever wanted was you
Just say you love me
All I ever wanted was you
I was jealous and stupid, but what can I do?
'Cos all I ever wanted was you
to say you love me
Just say you love me
Just say you love me

. . .


You tell me there's one thing, tearing down the love that we have
And how you sacrificed something, that you'll never live the dreams that you have
So if I stare at the floor, the same as before
Please forgive me, I can't hear you any more

Something's going on in my head, but I'm not there
like I'm drifting away
And something going on in my heart, but I don't care
I can't face it again, I'm numb with the pain that I feel

I don't know what I did, but I never held you back like you claim
Now that I see, I guess some one's gotta shoulder your blame
And everything that you said, every bitter regreat
Every poison arrow is flying over my head

Well, something's going on in my head, but I'm not there
like I'm drifting away
And something going on in my heart, but I don't care
I can't face it again, I'm numb with the pain that I feel

Numb with pain that I feel

Uh, mmm, yeah

If I stare at the floor, the same as before
Please forgive me, I can't listen anymore

Well, something's going on in my head, but I'm not there
like I'm drifting away
And something going on in my heart, but I don't care
I'm numb with the pain that I feel

(Something's going on in my head) Numb with the pain I feel
(something going on in my heart, but I don't care) Numb with the pain I feel
