Feel i'm goin' back to massachusetts,
Something's telling me i must go home.
And the lights all went out in massachusetts
The day i left her standing on her own.
Tried to hitch a ride to san francisco,
Gotta do the things i wanna do.
And the lights all went out in massachusetts
They brought me back to see my way with you.
Talk about the life in massachusetts,
Speak about the people i have seen,
And the lights all went out in massachusetts
And massachusetts is one place i have seen.
I will remember massachusetts...
I know your eyes in the morning sun
I feel you touch me in the pouring rain
And the moment that you wander far from me
I wanna feel you in my arms again
And you come to me on a summer breeze
Keep me warm in your love then you softly leave
And it’s me you need to show
How deep is your love?
Chorus:
How deep is your love, how deep is your love
I really mean to learn
‘Cause we’re living in a world of fools
Breaking us down when they all should let us be
We belong to you and me
I believe in you
You know the door to my very soul
You’re the light in my deepest, darkest hour
You’re my savior when I fall
And you may not think I care for you
When you know down inside that I really do
And it’s me you need to show
How deep is your love?
Chorus
And you come to me on a summer breeze
Keep me warm in your love then you softly leave
And it’s me you need to show
How deep is your love?
I read the news today, oh boy,
about a lucky man who made the grade.
And though the news was rather sad,
well, I just had to laugh,
I saw the photograph.
He blew his mind out in a car.
He hadn't noticed that the lights had changed.
A crowd of people stood and stared,
they'd seen his face before.
Nobody was really sure
if he was from the House of Lords.
I saw a film today, oh boy.
The English army had just won the war.
A crowd of people turned away
but I just had to look,
having read the book.
I'd love to turn you on.
Woke up, fell out of bed,
dragged a comb across my head,
found my way downstairs and drank a cup,
and looking up I noticed I was late.
Found my coat and grabbed my hat,
made the bus in seconds flat,
found my way upstairs and had a smoke,
somebody spoke and I went into a dream.
Ah ah ah...
I read the news today, oh boy,
four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire.
And though the holes were rather small
they had to count them all,
now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall.
I'd love to turn you on.
Words and music makes a song
for a love to sing along
like a choir within the air
there'll be music everywhere
A bitter tear across your cheek
a smile for you is all i need
you give me cause to breath the air
there'll be lovers everywhere
Chorus
I'll be your singer and your song
for all the love you brought along
i'll be your day
i'll be your night
i'll see that everything's alright
i'll turn the ocean into sand
like my heart at your command
i'll make the raindrops turn to snow
and then everyone will know that we're in love...
And when the morning brings us light
misty moonlight says goodbye
my hands are shaking when you smile
you make me feel just like a child
My mind is searching for a way
so that you won't have to say
you've got to knowi can't come back
but i can't take you make me sad
Repet chorus (2x)
I started a joke which started the whole world crying
but i didn't see that the joke was on me oh no
i started to cry which started the whole world laughing
oh if i'd only seen that the joke was on me
I looked at the skies running my hands over my eyes
and i fell out of bed hurting my head from things that i said
'till i finaly died which started the whole world living
oh if i'd only seen that the joke was on me
I looked at the skies running my hands over my eyes
and i fell out of bed hurting my head from things that i said
'till i finaly died which started the whole world living
oh if i'd only seen that the joke was on me
oh no that the joke was on me
I was a midnight rider on a cloud of smoke
I could make a woman hang on every single stroke
I was an iron man
I had a master plan
But I was alone
I could hear you breathing
With a sigh of the wind
I remember how your body started trembling
Oh, what’s a night it’s been
And for the state I’m in
I’m still alone
And all the wonders made for the earth
And all the hearts in all creation
Somehow I always end up alone
Always end up alone
So I play, I’ll wait
’cause you know that love takes time
We came so far
Just the beat of a lonely heart
And it’s mine
I don’t want to be alone
Well, since I got no message on your answer phone
And since you’re busy every minute.
I just stay at home
I make believe you care
I feel you everywhere
But I’m still alone
I’m on a wheel of fortune with a twist of fate
’cause I know it isn’t heaven, is it love or hate
Am I the subject of the pain
An I the stranger in the rain
I am alone
And if there glory there to behold
Maybe it’s my imagination
Another story there to be told
So I play, I’ll wait
And I pray it’s not too late
We came so far
Just a beat of a lonely heart
And it’s mine
I don’t want to be alone
And all the wonders made for the earth
And all the hearts in all creation
Another story there to be told
So I play, I’ll wait
And I pray it’s not too late
We came so far
Just a beat of a lonely heart
And it’s mine
I don’t want to be alone
Gone, but not out of sight
I’m caught in the rain and there’s no one home
Face the heat of the night
The one that you love’s got a heart that’s made of stone
Shine and search for the light
And sooner or later you’ll be cruising on your ocean
And clean out of sight
I’m caught in the rain and there’s no one home
Oh, girl I’ve known you very well
I’ve seen you growing everyday
I never really looked before
but now you take my breath away.
Suddenly you’re in my life
part of everything I do
you got me working day and night
just trying to keep a hold on you.
Here in your arms I found my paradise
my only chance for happiness
and if I lose you now I think I would die.
Oh say you’ll always be my baby
we can make it shine, we can take forever
just a minute at a time.
More than a woman, more than a woman to me
more than a woman, more than a woman to me
more than a woman, oh, oh, oh.
There are stories old and true
of people so in love like you and me
and I can see myself
let history repeat itself.
Reflecting how I feel for you
thinking about those people then
I know that in a thousand years
I’d fall in love with you again.
This is the only way that we should fly
this is the only way to go
and if I lose you I know I would die.
Oh say you’ll always be my baby
we can make it shine, we can take forever
just a minute at a time.
More than a woman, more than a woman to me
more than a woman, more than a woman to me
more than a woman, oh, oh, oh.
Don't know why I'm surviving ev'ry lonely day,
When there's got to be no chance for me. my life would end.
And it just don't matter how I cry, my tears of love are waste of time.
If I turn away, am I strong enough to see it through? Go crazy is what I will do
chorus
If I can't have you, I don't want nobody, baby,
If I can't have you...uhuhhh...ahhh!
If I can't have you, I don't want nobody, baby,
If I can't have you...uhuhhh...ahhh!
music…… uhuhhh
Can't let go and it doesn't matter how I try
I gave it all so easily to you my love, To dreams that never will come true
Am I strong enough to see it through? Go crazy is what I will do
(chorus) repeat four times….. and fade
To love somebody
Jimmy Summerville
(1990) music & lyrics: Barry Gibb - robin Gibb notes: also performed by "bee gees" in 1967
(Written for "Otis Redding" who doesn't want it?)
There’s a light,
Certain kind of light
That never shone on me
I want my life to be lived with you, lived with you
There’s a way everybody say to do each and every little thing but what does it bring
If I ain't got you, ain't got?
You don't know what its like,
Baby you don't know what it's like
To love somebody to love somebody to love somebody
The way I love you
In my brain see your face again
I know my frame of mind
You ain't got to be so blind
And I’m blind, so very blind
Because I’m a man, can't you see what Aim I live and breathe for you?
But what good does it do
If I ain't got you, ain't got?
You don't know what its like,
Baby you don't know what it's like
To love somebody to love somebody to love somebody the way I love you
I can think of younger days when living for my life
Was everything a man could want to do.
I could never see tomorrow, but I was never told about the sorrow.
And how can you mend a broken heart?
How can you stop the rain from falling down?
How can you stop the sun from shining?
What makes the world go round?
How can you mend a this broken man?
How can a loser ever win?
Please help me mend my broken heart and let me live again.
I can still feel the breeze that rustles through the trees
And misty memories do days gone by
We could never see tomorrow, noone said a word about the sorrow.
And how can you mend a broken heart?
How can you stop the rain from falling down?
How can you stop the sun from shining?
What makes the world go round?
How can you mend this broken man?
How can a loser ever win?
Please help me mend my broken heart and let me live again.
Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk,
I’m a woman’s man: no time to talk.
Music loud and women warm, I’ve been kicked around
since I was born.
And now it’s all right. It’s OK.
And you may look the other way.
We can try to understand
the New York Times’ effect on man.
Whether you’re a brother or whether you’re a mother,
you’re stayin’ alive, stayin’ alive.
Feel the city breakin’ and everybody shakin’,
and we’re stayin’ alive, stayin’ alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin’ alive, stayin’ alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin’ alive.
Well now, I get low and I get high,
and if I can’t get either, I really try.
Got the wings of heaven on my shoes.
I’m a dancin’ man and I just can’t lose.
You know it’s all right. It’s OK.
I’ll live to see another day.

Don't shed a tear for me
No, it's not your style
If you're not here by me
Then it's not worth while
Chorus:
My world is our world
And this world is your world
And your world is my world
And my world is your world is mine
I've been crying
I'm lonely
What do I do to have you stay
I've needed you
To cry on
I've written to you nearly ev'ry day
Chorus:
Don't shed a tear for me
That's not your style
If you're not here by me
Then it's not worth while
Maybe you talk too high, man.
Maybe I talk too slow.
But you've got to live a little bit faster
'cause you've got a little less time to go.
I ain't lost and I ain't searching.
But then you know me very well.
And I can't change the wind and make it blow the other way.
I'm a fool and I can tell .
That I'm alive and that's all.
That I can get up just as fast as I fall.
And I can walk and run but I'll never crawl.
And in the end it doesn't matter at all.
I don't know about the people that I read about in books.
And the Kings and Queens around my room with their quiet dirty looks.
I know I should be going somewhere, I just can't arrive .
There's a reason for believing that I've never been alive , alive.
I ain't lost and I ain't searching.
But then you know me very well.
And I can't change the world and make it go the other way.
I'm a fool and I can tell.
That I'm alive and that's all .
That I can get up just as fast as I fall.
And I can walk and run but I'll never crawl.
And in the end it doesn't matter at all.
I don't know about those people that I read about in books.
And the Kings and Queens around my room with their quiet dirty looks.
I know I should be going somewhere, I just can't arrive.
There's a reason for believing that I've never been alive.
I know I should be going somewhere I just can't arrive.
There's a reason for believing that I've never been alive, alive, alive.
Listen to the ground:
there is movement all around.
There is something goin’ down
and I can feel it.
On the waves of the air,
there is dancin’ out there.
If it’s somethin’ we can share,
we can steal it.
And that sweet city woman,
she moves through the light,
controlling my mind and my soul.
When you reach out for me
yeah, and the feelin’ is bright,
then I get night fever, night fever.
We know how to do it.
Gimme that night fever, night fever.
We know how to show it.
Here I am,
prayin’ for this moment to last,
livin’ on the music so fine,
borne on the wind,
makin’ it mine.
Night fever, night fever.
We know how to do it.
Gimme that night fever, night fever.
We know how to show it.
In the heat of our love,
don’t need no help for us to make it.
Gimme just enough to take us to the mornin’.
I got fire in my mind.
I got higher in my walkin’.
And I’m glowin’ in the dark;
I give you warnin’.
And that sweet city woman,
she moves through the light,
controlling my mind and my soul.
When you reach out for me
