When suffering grows too much to bear
Just remember He is there
Among the stars He hears the words you say
And those you kept away

And while you live life in despair
Don’t forget that He’s been there
Upon the cross where He was made to lay
And live His dying day

Do you think He knows no pain?
How could he not when you heard Him say

אלי למא שבקתני אלי (Eloi, Lema Sabachtani, Eloi)
אלי למא שבקתני אלי אלי (Eloi, Lema Sabachtani, Eloi, Eloi)

If God and angels didn’t care
Then why had He been sent to share
‘Cos with His cross He carried all the way
He taught us how to pray

If Heaven has no time to spare
Then why is He a solitaire
He’s been a man whom fellowmen betray
He loves them anyway

Does His tears fall with the rain?
Yes He’s crying when you hear Him say

אלי למא שבקתני אלי (Eloi, Lema Sabachtani, Eloi)
אלי למא שבקתני אלי אלי (Eloi, Lema Sabachtani, Eloi, Eloi)

If someone strikes you when you’re weak
Just smile and turn the other cheek
Bear no grudge today - unclench your fist
Letting go is bliss

Don’t you think He feels your pain?
How can he not when you hear him say

אלי למא שבקתני אלי (Eloi, Lema Sabachtani, Eloi)
אלי למא שבקתני אלי (Eloi, Lema Sabachtani, Eloi)
אלי אלי אלי למא שבקתני אלי (Eloi, Eloi, Eloi, Lema Sabachtani, Eloi)
אלי אלי אלי למא שבקתני (Eloi, Eloi, Eloi, Lema Sabachtani)
אלי אלי (Eloi, Eloi)

אני אוהב אותך אלי (Ani ohev otcha, Eloi)
אלי אלי (Eloi, Eloi)

Joey sat by the edge of his bed
His body’s bruised
With burning scars that bled
From a hundred cigarettes
Maybe more

Mommy’s gone away
To a different place to stay
Only memories remained
To this day
Daddy’s on his way
Joey knew he had to pray
That would make most of the pain
Go away

And he knew that
It would all soon be over
‘Cos he knew that
These things don’t last forever

Many years has passed since then
He’s all grown up
He’s been a fine young man
With a shadow for a friend
Waiting for…

Daddy’s gone away
To a different place to stay
Only memories tear his mind in two
And he knows he’s gotta let it go
He knows he’ll make it through

These scars won’t heal
These dreams won’t fade
But these are the things that will make him feel
That life is so real
It’s all worth the wait
Someday he’ll find what he’s looking for

ON VALENTINE’S

Many tales are told
In ancient rhymes
Lovers behold
True love on Valentine’s

There are tales untold
Of modern times
Strangers left cold
On Valentine’s

The magic first kiss
Of eternal bliss
Or as long as they will stay together
The deepest romance
The sweetest last dance
Before one falls for another

Broken glass that laid
This road of mine
Pieces that made
My love on Valentine’s

Fallen angels paid
The fools in kind
Love turns to hate
On Valentine’s

He bends his promise
In a moment like this
Breaking a vow that’s meant forever
She asks for a chance
But the story ends
When the lights go in the darkest hour

These are tales untold
Of modern times
Strangers left cold
And alone on Valentine’s

Such a waste is
A pretty face like this
Oh yeah
She’s born with eyes that can’t see
Oh how can it be

He’s only sixteen
But sittin’ in between
Oh yeah
He’s got a girl and boyfriend
I don’t understand

Chorus 1
I wanna live my life
Not gonna let it waste away
I’m learnin’ to survive
Don’t wanna wait for another day
I’m gonna work and strive
For my dreams, make ‘em mine today
Oh yeah
Before they start to fade away

His wife is horny
He loves his family
So much
He lets her have a new man
I can’t comprehend

Chorus 2
I wanna live my life
Not gonna let it waste away
I’m learnin’ to survive
Don’t wanna wait for another day
I’m gonna work and strive
For my dreams, make ‘em mine today
Oh yeah
Before they start to fade away
Oh yeah
Before I start to waste away

Life is wasted
When you’re livin’ for another
Complicated
When you think things last forever

I’m makin’ money
I don’t know if I’ll be
Oh yeah
A bachelor or father
I should have known better

(Repeat Chorus 2)

I wanna live
I wanna live
I wanna live my life
Don’t wanna wait for another day
I’m gonna strive
I’m gonna strive
I’m gonna strive for my dreams
Gonna make ‘em all mine today

在一個夢幻的世界裡
我和妳走在一起
陪妳穿梭每個境界
伴妳渡過漫漫長夜

我真的真的愛妳
失去一切也沒什麼関係
但我卻不可失去妳… 哦…

在這個真実的世界裡
妳已不屬於我的
但我卻誠懇地希望
妳會回到我的身旁

我真的真的愛妳
失去世界也沒什麼了不起
但我卻不能放棄妳
也許你覚得我煩死妳
也許也沒有也許
一相情願是最大的問題
但我還想要告訴妳… 哦…

不要走
You’re everything that I can’t let go
You’re my strength and my soul
勿放手
あなただけが僕の
全然忘れないよ

Maybe you’ll be back someday
當妳在流淚
我將會守在妳的身邊擦乾妳的傷悲
君がすべて (すべて)
每一分每一秒都不會覚得累
因為我真的真的愛妳

YOU’LL NEVER KNOW

You see me wearing a smile on my face
You see me travelling far and wide
You don’t think that I’m out-of-place
You don’t see a reason for me to hide

The truth is I’m wandering aimlessly
The truth is I’m a lonely, pathetic little thing
Outside I’m a plastic tree
Inside I’m actually crying

I’m cool
I’m hot
I’m anything that you want me to, want it to be
But a fool
I’m not
I’m everything that you don’t wanna see
You’ll never know

This sadness has got to end somewhere
This madness is driving my head up the wall
It seems that I don’t really care
I thought I’d laugh when I answered your call
But as soon as I heard you, tears started to fall

I’m cool
I’m hot
I’m anything that you want me to, want it to be
But a fool
I’m not
I’m everything that you don’t wanna see

I’m Moses
I’m God
I’m anyone that you think I have to be, ought to be
But, Jesus
I’m a fraud
Things are not what they appear to be
You’ll never know

You think I’m strong and all
With the cards to make
And with the heart to break
You think I’ll never fall
Never made a mistake
Never sounded so fake
You’ll never know

I’ve grown used to this pain
Every story must end
It’s just a question of when
As the stars begin to wane
Night will fade from the land
The sun will rise again

The years passed so silently
I’m growing old and astray
You’re now the star of the day
The tears fell so tenderly
I’ve lost the words to say
But I still love you today
You’ll never know

Ohh…
You’ll never know
