Looking For Freedom

Forget your troubles and your aggravations
we're gonna have ourselves a celebration
forget you worries and any sorrow
we're gonna dance like there is no-no tomorrow
whatever the hang up
we're getting a gang up
and we are gonna have us some fun

I-if you're worried and fu-ull of trouble
come on do-own and it will pop like a bubble
i-if your problems are caused by heartbreak
come on and join us you'll forget your heartache
whatever the hang up
we're getting a gang up
and we are gonna have us some fun

Is everybody happy
we are gonna have us some fun
is everybody happy
well everybody have a lotta
everybody have a lotta of fun
If you're sorrounded by clouds of thunder
don't let it get ya and pull-ull you under
you gotta fight it and learn your lesson
or you will end up in deep depression
whatever the hang up
we're getting a gang up
and we are gonna have us some fun

Really tho't that I could live without you
really tho't that I could make it on my own
send you away ya I said I did't need you
I let you go, I let you go, I let you go
now I'm so lost without you
now you're not here and now I know

Lonely is the night when I'm not with you
lonely is the night and there ain't no light shining through
til you're in my arms til you're here by my side
lonely am I

Never tho't that I that I would need you
never tho't that I that I'd be missing you
gotta get you back
I just got to find a way now
to let you know, to let you know, to let you know
that I'm so lost without you
and now this world just ain't right

I can make it through the day
I can fake it okay
I just smile and pretend
and I tell myself it's alright
but lonely is the night
lonely is the night

Springtime in Paris it was late in the night
and, I was looking round at all the usual sights
suddently there right in front of my eyes
I saw this girl and I sighed je t'aime

Felt my passion rising as I watched her go by
I speak a little francais so I gave it a try
I was confused - she'd put my mind in a haze
Then I remembered a phrase - je t'aime

Stay with me - mon cherie
maybe then
you'll say je t'aime
stay with me - please say oui
to a rendez-vous
je t'aime means I love you

Parlez-vous anglais didn't bring me success
And she won't say her name or even write her address
don't wanna lose her in the Champs Elysees
only one thing I can say - je t'aime

Mademoiselle has got to me like no-one before
and I just wanna love her
and then love her some more
wish that I'd learnt - my lessons better at school
I'm standing here like a fool-je t'aime

I need protection
needed a place to hide
I wanted
a fortress
so love couldn't get inside
and
I made it strong and tall
I swore I'd never see it fall
and no one at all
could break through this sheltered heart

Break through this sheltered heart
break through this sheltered heart
oh won't you tear down the walls
I've built all around me
I wanna learn to win
I think I could love again
break down these walls
break dowm this sheltered heart

Been keeping
my distance safe
behind this guarded wall
concealing my feelings
till I couldn't feel at all
and
I closed and locked the door
but maybe I've been waiting for
someone like you
to break down this sheltered heart

She was just a child when fell in love
and he was everything that she'd been dreaming of
she was proud to be the princess of a brave matador
cause she knew that it was her that he was always fighting for

She brings him Spanish roses
cause she can still remember
all of the Spanish roses
her lover gave her

Torero
te quiero
Torero
te quiero

And noe he's just a dream that she used to love
cause deep inside her heart she'll hold the memory of
the days she used to watch him as the crowd cheered his name
the day he lost the battle and they carried him away

The picture of her still hangs in the hall
the one that I took by the beach
the day that we walked
for hours and hours
talkin' 'bout how things would be

So many nights she slept in my arms
I never thought it would end
so I keep on telling myself that she's gone
but I can't get her out of my head
yes I keep on saying
these words to myself
over and over again

She is yesterday's love
she's yesterday's dreams
I know tomorrow will come
but I'm somewhere lost in between
she is yesterday's love
she's yesterday's dreams
I know tomorrow will come
and she'll leave her life without me

She said she was mine
to have and to hold
forever till death do as part
I gave her my love
she carried by name
but I couldn't carry her heart

So I'll just be holding my pillow tonight
trying to stay warm in this bed
and I'll keep on telling myself that she's gone
but I don't get her out of my head
yes I to keep on saying
these words to myself
over and over again

One morning in June some twenty years ago
I was born a rich man's son
I had everything that money could buy
But freedom - I had none

I have been lookin' for freedom
I have been lookin' so long
I have been lookin' for freedom
still the search goes on
I've been lookin' for freedom
since I left my home town
I've been lookin' for freedom
still it can't be found

I headed down the track, my baggage on my back
I left the city far behind
Walkin' down the road, with my heavy load
tryin' to find some peace of mind
father said you'll be sorry, son,
if you leave your home these way
and when you realize the freedom money buys
you'll come running home some day.

I have been lookin' for freedom
I have been lookin' so long
I have been lookin' for freedom
still the search goes on
I've been lookin' for freedom
since I left my home town
I've been lookin' for freedom
still it can't be found

I paid a lotta dues, had plenty to lose
travelling across the land
worked on a farm, got some muscle in my arm
but still I'm not a self-made man
I'll be on the run for many years to come
I'll be searching door to door
but, given some time, some day I'm gonna find
the freedom I've been searching for

I have been lookin' for freedom...

I guess I'll never understand it
a billion people on this planet
and here I've found
the one who's made for me

Just when I thought my hopes had faded
I found the one who was created
to hold my hand
and share this world with me

(We're) flying all the wings of tenderness
ride on a river of gentelness
into the garden of love we'll flow
and watch it grow together

We'll build a castle out of honesty
fill every room with the armony
seeing the world thru each others eyes
we'll live our lives together

I've always hidden my emotions
but now my heart is free and open
to give to you
the love you gave to me

Cause now the sands of time have shifted
and every burden has been lifted
cause now I know
our love will show the way

Lady you're and angel
falling from the stars
lady love is waiting
right here in my arms
lady lie beside me
love me tonight
two hearts found each other
one love can make it right
yes, two hearts are bound forever
my lady, my love

Lady I'll be with you
every night and day
lady I was lonely
now you're here to stay
lady lie beside me
love me tonight
two hearts found each other
one love can make it right
yes, two hearts are bound forever
my lady, my love

The light of day is fading, you're asleep beside me
I'd give my life if you would stay
but this is where you leave me, closing the door behind you
upon the secret of your day

Song of the night
I'm facing a night of loneliness
song of the night
I'm lost in the emptiness
we never share your midnight melody
cos she's with another man, instead of me
song of the night
oh help me to fight what lies ahead
I stand in my room and I look at an empty bed

I need her, I want her, I just can't take it
oh what I would give, if you could make it
be alright, song of the night

I will see you tomorrow, for one stolen moment
I'll be at peace, a part of you
magic moments together, then the spell is broken
I'm in a dream that can't come true

Song of the night...

I take your hand in mine
and journey back in time
to Avignon
do you recall the day
it seems like yesterday
when love came along
the little street cafe
where we would hide away
just playin' our song
we strolled along lover's lane
ignoring showers of rain
my sweet Madeline

We didn't own a thing
but we had everything
my Madeline
down by the riverside
we'd sit and watch the tide
my Madeline
we used to have such fun
we used to be as one
we're still the same
just picture in your mind
all those carefree times
my sweet Madeline

I found my first love
in Avignon
my first and last love
in Avignon
let's go back and say hello
to the memories of long ago
together we'll wander
through old Avignon

The cafe still remains
although it's rearranged
our table's still there
the same old atmosphere
is that our song I hear
love everywhere
you look the same today
as you did yesterday
sunin your hair
gonna walk through the town
take a look around
with my sweet Madeline

Afer manana mi ciello
I'll be with you in the morning
wait for me down by the station
there is gonna be some celebration
afer manana mi ciello
I'm gonna hold you tomorrow
darling be mine when I come to you
manana my friend mi ciello

It's been so long so many nights
I had to see
those big city lights
I've seen a hundred places
and millions of faces
but one girl is still on my mind
I've seen a hundred places
and millions of faces
but one girl is still on my mind

How do you look
how do you feel
d'you still believe
my lovin' is real
give me a chance to show you
and baby I know you
we'll never be lonely again
give me a chance to show you
and baby I know you
we'll never be lonely again

Two people who met
from two different worlds,
amore amore
an Italian boy and a rich little girl,
amore amore
they've all been saying it loud and clear
I'm just no good for you
but I say - amore amore

Elizabeth,
with every breath I will fight for you
my destiny is with you girl
Elizabeth,
you are the best and I'm right for you
a little town with little minds
we'll leave it all behind
our lives begins today
amore amore

I'm fixing the phone
and I'm locking the door
amore amore
nobody will hurt you
no not anymore, amore, amore
tomorrow will be far away
from cold hypocrisy
in sunny Italy and amore amore
