We're caught in a trap
I can't walk out
Because I love you too much baby
Why can't you see
What you're doing to me
When you don't believe a word I say?
We can't go on together
With suspicious minds
And we can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds
So, if an old friend I know
Drops by to say hello
Would I still see suspicion in your eyes?
Here we go again
Asking where I've been
You can't see these tears are real
I'm crying
We can't go on together
With suspicious minds
And be can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds
Oh let our love survive
Or dry the tears from your eyes
Let's don't let a good thing die
When honey, you know
I've never lied to you
Mmm yeah, yeah
Handprints On The Wall Composer(s): Scott Innes; Claude Parish; Nelson Blanchard Performer(s): Kenny Rogers
The wait turned into hours Before you came my way The smile that filled a daddy's heart On the special day The moment left me speechless I didn't know what to say Then you took your first breath That took mine away
Days go by so quickly Summer turns to fall Seems like only yesterday That you began to crawl So don't be afraid to take that step I'll catch you when you fall I don't mind if you leave behind A few handprints on the wall
I can't describe this feeling Way down deep inside The itsy-bitsy spider Was the first thing that we tried Patty cake, the baker's man With your hands so very small You could always stay this young And I wouldn't mind at all
Days go by so quickly Summer turns to fall Seems like only yesterday That you began to crawl So don't be afraid to take that step I'll catch you when you fall I don't mind if you leave behind A few handprints on the wall
Is Always Over Now? Composer(s): Gerry Morgan First performance by: Dawn Martin - 1998
I never thought that it would end You were the one my love, my friend You were my every dream come true Always, you said, was me and you
So how can you say it's over now? How can you wave it all goodbye? Always, you said, this love would be Always, you said, was you and me
Is always over now? Does it never last that long? Were the feelings that I had Ever right, or was it wrong? To think that love should last Was mistaken on my part But you promised me the earth (You promised me...) And you only broke my heart
You touched my soul You touched my life You always would, you said But now, you are taking always away
Is always over now? Does it never last that long? Were the feelings that I had Ever right, or was it wrong? To think that love should last Was mistaken on my part But you promised me the earth (You promised me...) And you only broke my heart
Is always over now? Does it never last that long? Were the feelings that I had Ever right, or was it wrong? To think that love should last Was mistaken on my part But you promised me the earth (You promised me...) And you only broke my heart (You promised me...)
Handouts In The Rain Composer(s): Richie Havens Performer(s): Richie Havens; Paul Weller
You can talk about your neighbor You can grab him by the collar You can hurt him only if he hollers "Let me go let me go"
But we all know that's old-fashioned And it can only lead to pain Where we might end up on the corner Taking handouts in the rain
You can bomb your foreign brother You can hurt him until he dies You can kill him until he never asks you why You're on his land you're on his land
But we all know that's all over And that can only lead to blame Where we might end up for our country Taking handouts in the rain
You can trample on your sister You can hurt her only if she cries You can hurt her only if she cares With all her heart with all her heart
But we all know she'd be a mother And that could only lead to shame Where she might end up for her children Taking handouts in the rain
Teach your children stories You can fill them full of lies You can make them all despise One another one another
But when they all find out later And they call us by our rightful names And send us shamefully to old age Taking handouts in the rain Taking handouts in the rain Taking handouts in the rain

Sound The Bell Composer(s): Clarence Garlow - W. Shuler Performer(s): Johnny Winter; Brophy Dale
I went out and got married Thought I'd live a happy life But before I could settle down Another man had stole my wife
Well, sound the bell-yes it feels so sad Nobody knows, the troubles I had-no
If you see my woman, won't you tell her for me That you left me crying, and my heart's in misery
Well, sound the bell-well I feel so sad Nobody knows, the troubles I had (long "no")

You might think I'm crazy, but I'll never love again I'm going back home to my mama, 'cause she's my only friend

Handbags And Gladrags Composer(s): Michael d'Abo Performer(s): Mike d'Abo; and various other artists
Ever seen a blind man cross the road Trying to make the other side Ever seen a young girl growing old Trying to make herself a bride And what becomes of you my love When they have finally stripped you of The handbags and the gladrags That your Grandad had to sweat so you could buy
Once I was a young man And all I thought I had to do was smile So listen all you young girls Who have bought everything thats in style Cos once you think you're in you're out For you don't mean a thing without The handbags and the gladrags That your Grandad had to sweat so you could buy
Sing a song of six-pence for your sake And take a bottle full of rye Four and twenty blackbirds in a cake And bake em all in a pie They told me you missed school today So I suggest you just throw away The handbags and the gladrags That your Grandad had to sweat so you could buy
And what becomes of you my love When they have finally stripped you of The handbags and the gladrags That your Grandad had to sweat so you could buy
Hand To Hold On To Composer(s): John Mellencamp Performer(s): John Cougar Mellencamp
You can laugh and joke and make fun of your friends Spin in the middle when the troubles begin Take it nice and easy and always pretend That you're cool, so cool, so cool
Say I'm alone and I'm wild and I will not be pained Talk like a jerk or an educated brain Be an old girl driving the young boys insane Be a joker, a preacher it does not matter
Everyone needs a hand to hold on to Everyone needs a hand to hold on to Don't need to be no strong hand Don't need to be no rich hand Everyone just needs a hand to hold on to
Having good luck with your financial situation Play the ponies, be president of the United Nations Go to work and be a Hollywood stud Drive your four wheel drive right into the mud
Everyone needs a hand to hold on to Everyone needs a hand to hold on to Don't need to be no strong hand Don't need to be no rich hand Everyone just needs a hand to hold on to
And them those hours when you're alone And there's nobody there except yourself I know it, you wanna pick up the phone And say talk to me, talk to me somebody please talk to me yeah
Oh yeah Everyone needs a hand to hold on to Everyone needs a hand to hold on to Don't need to be no strong hand Don't need to be no rich hand Everyone just needs a hand to hold on to (repeat)
Sound out the galleon to travel to cross close the space between pastures as rightly attained As old stands to plunder expectant as one dear companion can utter the right we achieve
Climb summer mornings and tell me of days past did we all to sing of the praises of love And is one hand raised high in the dark
Total relating appointed close factors of what we regard as the answer lies there and is one hand raised high in the dark
There stands Olias to outward to build a ship Holding within all we hope to retain The frame will be so built to challenge the universe clasped with the skins of the fish of the plain
Mastered volcano erupt with the pleasure and sing to the power, we will sail to the East and all hands shall rise to the call
Do Ga Riytan Sha Too Raytan

Radan Atto Raddan Atto Stou To Mutto Sha Go Teka Sha Go Teka D E I
Sighting our vision Ranyart will precision us from all our points to our destined recall and shall all but rejoice to it all
There stands Qoquaq and shall point to the four corners reaching out faster shall overtake you To bring you to safety to travel away from this moment that's rightly attained as your view
So sound out the galleon to travel to cross close the space between pastures as rightly attained As old stands to plunder expectant as one dear companion can offer the right we achieve
Sound Of Thunder Composer(s): Simon Lebon - Nick Rhodes - Andy Taylor - John Taylor - Roger Taylor Performer(s): Duran Duran
I've been in this grass here for the last 10 hours My clothes are dirty but my mouth isn't dry How does it happen? Does it fly through the air? Oh I gave up asking days away I gave up asking Days away
And now I'm lying here waiting for the Sound of Thunder Waiting for the Sound of Thunder Here I am, I'm a dotted line Cut the corner, stick me to your door I'm the man who stepped off the path and I just lie here It's what I was made for
And now my eyes are closing, but I still feel the land Leaning out for the touch of my hand The world spins so fast that I might fly off The world spins so fast that I might fly off The world spins so fast, I might fly off
Waiting for the Sound of Thunder I'm waiting for the Sound of Thunder I'm waiting for the Sound of Thunder I'm waiting for the Sound of Thunder I'm waiting for the Sound of Thunder I'm waiting for the Sound of Thunder I'm waiting for the Sound of Thunder ...
Hand In Hand Again Composer(s): Raymond B. Egan; Richard A. Whiting Performer(s): Midnight Syndicate
There were tears in the hour that was darkest The hour that came just before dawn But a smile lurks today Where a tear used to stray And the curtain of darkness is drawn
Not a sparrow may fall from the tree top Unknown to the angels above So then why should our fears Turn our smiles to tears Heaven watches o'er all hearts that love
Ev'ry heart is lighter Ev'ry smile is brighter Sad "Adieu is changing to Hello" again Sorrow walk'd before us But a pray'r watch'd o'er us We stray'd far buy here we are Hand in Hand Again
Laß Ihn Composer(s): Gunvor Guggisberg - Egon Egemann First performance by: Gunvor Guggisberg - 1998
Cocktails serviert er jeden Abend Verzaubert jede Frau Spielt mit seinem Charme Auch du ließt dich von ihm blenden Warst schon nach ein Stunden in seinem Arm
Laß ihn endlich geh'n Oft ließ er dich steh'n Es war nur ein Schein Laß ihn endlich sein
Wie oft betrog er dich Dachtest, er ändert sich Doch da belügst du dich Sag', tut 's nicht weh
Samstag, freust dich auf den Abend Hast noch viel zu tun bis zum Feierabend Aber die Gedanken schweifen 'rüber Denkst nur noch an ihn Schmeißt die Arbeit Sogar die Stelle hin
Laß ihn endlich geh'n Oft ließ er dich steh'n Es war nur ein Schein Laß ihn endlich sein
Wie oft betrog er dich Dachtest, er ändert sich Doch da belügst du dich Sag', tut 's nicht weh
Laß ihn endlich geh'n Oft ließ er dich steh'n Es war nur ein Schein Laß ihn endlich sein
Wie oft betrog er dich Dachtest, er ändert sich Doch da belügst du dich Sag', tut 's nicht weh
Hand In Hand Composer(s): Tom Whitlock; Giorgio Moroder Performer(s): Koreana
See the fire in the sky We feel the beating of our hearts together This is our time to rise above We know the chance is here to live forever For all time
Chorus: Hand in Hand we stand All across the land We can make this world A better place in which to live
Hand in Hand we can Start to understand Breaking down the walls That come between us for all time Arirang
Everytime we give it all We feel the flame eternally inside us Lift our hands up to the sky The morning calm helps us to live in harmony For all time
Chorus: Hand in hand we stand All across the land We can make this world A better place in which to live
Hand in Hand we can Start to understand Breaking down the walls That come between us for all time Arirang
Hand in hand we stand All across the land We can make this world A better place in which to live
Hand in Hand we can Start to understand Breaking down the walls That come between us for all time
Hand in hand (Breaking down the walls between us) Hand in Hand (Breaking down the walls)
