Soul Survivor - Irma Dee
lyrics
I can’t change you...no
take you by the heart
rearrange your life,
anything I
try to do, try to do
I can’t make it right.
I can’t heal you...no
you wanna bear the guilt?
won’t start to feel the peace,
never gonna
take the blame, take the blame.
It is such a mess.
I’m not the one who
makes your world go round.
Be a soul survivor
I tell you what for
don’t be a chancer,
gotta knock on heaven’s door
soul survivor, be a soul survivor
ah, ah ,ah ,ah.
Depends on who you lean
I tell you what I mean –
you can’t get enough,
had to learn to
play it rough, play it rough
it is selfish love.
I’m not the one who
makes your world go round.
Be a soul survivor
I tell you what for.
don’t be a chancer,
gotta knock on heaven’s door
soul survivor, be a soul survivor
you sure know how to move me,
find my tears
but you’ll never prove me wrong
you sure know how to
find my doubts and fears
I know where I belong
Be a soul survivor
I tell you what for.
don’t be a chancer,
gotta knock on heaven’s door.
soul survivor, be a soul survivor
ah, ah ,ah ,ah.

You Are The One

You are the One
I try to walk on water, but I sink without trace
When I run the second mile, I can’t keep the pace
It is written ‘love your neighbour’, that's out of control
Everywhere I turn they want a piece of your soul
People like me, they don't like me, then trouble begins
There’s really nothing new about original sin
I don’t do perfection, I just do my best
I need someone to take care of the rest.
CHORUS
You are the one for me
you're the heart, you're the beat, the day and the night
You are the one for me
Times are hard, and dark, where’s the sun, where’s the light
You are the love I need
What I want, you're all I'm thinking of
You are the one for me,
I know, I know your love will be enough
I put on my make-up, I choose the face
The coolest fashionista in the human race
When the show must go on, I don't have the power
What everybody wants from me, can change by the hour
I’m a tiny spec of dust on a tiny spec of earth
It’s a scary time of life whatever date of birth
Welcome to my world, it’s crazy everyday
No sweat, I’m happy with my DNA.
CHORUS
You are the one for me
you're the heart, you're the beat, the day and the night
You are the one for me
Times are hard, and dark, where’s the sun, where’s the light
You are the love I need
What I want, you're all I'm thinking of
You are the one for me,
I know, I know your love will be enough
BRIDGE

You are the one for me
you're the heart, you're the beat, the day and the night
You are the one for me
Times are hard, and dark, where’s the sun, where’s the light
You are the love I need
What I want, you're all I'm thinking of
You are the one for me,
I know, I know your love will be enough

Eye Candy

Eye Candy
every day she looks in the mirror
never likes what she sees
every day, tears on her face
saying I don’t want to be me
every day she puts on her make-up
knowing the smile is fake
got the face but no satisfaction
never knows, what will it take?
she will do anything to
be the centre of attention
so the world falls down at her feet
C H O R U S
eye candy, eye candy
look at me, I can tell you why
eye candy, eye candy
I could be real, could be a lie
eye candy, eye candy
all a game, it’s the way we try
eye candy, eye candy
to make men cry
here comes the Miss World final
there goes the catwalk queen
she had The Look to die for
the talk of the TV screen
every night, alone in the silence
the only thing on her mind
prays her look will make her happy
never the dream she finds
Sold her an empty future
Tried to be someone else too
bad she can never be herself
C H O R U S
eye candy, eye candy
look at me, I can tell you why
eye candy, eye candy
I could be real, could be a lie
eye candy, eye candy
all a game, it’s the way we try
eye candy, eye candy
to make men cry
BRIDGE
Who’s the fairest of them all?
Mirror, mirror on the wall
She never gets an answer
Can you hear the teardrops fall?
Mirror, mirror on the wall
She never gets an answer
No smile on her perfect face
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Such a mess inside –
Does it show? Does she know
what part of her has died?
C H O R U S
eye candy, eye candy
look at me, I can tell you why
eye candy, eye candy
I could be real, could be a lie
eye candy, eye candy
all a game, it’s the way we try
eye candy, eye candy
to make men cry
Every day she looks in the mirror
Never likes what she sees

Goodbye

I don’t understand, what was it for
all I try to ignore
Why did it end just like this
I give you my last goodbye kiss
I, I can’t believe we said goodbye
can we give it one more try
I am afraid on my own
I am waiting by the telephone
Let it go
End this show
Time to face the truth inside
CHORUS
I, I don’t wanna miss you no
Please stay here at my side
I don’t wanna let you go
Don’t wanna say goodbye
I, I never thought that we would part
Life is playing with my heart
I must have done all I can
It is hard to understand
let it go
end this show
time to face the truth inside
CHORUS
I, I don’t wanna miss you no
Please stay here at my side
I don’t wanna let you go
Don’t wanna say goodbye
Time for me to let you go
Time for me to end this show
Time to face the truth inside
Time for me to let you go
Time for me to end this show
Time to face the truth inside
My love will never die
I, I don’t wanna miss you no
Please stay here at my side
I don’t wanna let you go
Don’t wanna say goodbye
Why did it end
Just like this
I give you my last goodbye kiss

Rock, Scissors, Paper
is this what you've been waiting for?
the fun you never had before
for the dance
who cares what moves we're choosing
somewhere between the heart, the eye
life can take us by surprise
truth to tell
who cares who's winning or losing
put on your dancing shoes
C H O R U S
rock rock
I'm ready for the dance
scissors scissors
come on take a chance
paper paper
a never-ending story
rock rock
I'm ready for the dance
scissors scissors
come on take a chance
paper paper
winning, losing, glory
you think you have the upper hand?
I figured out the whole game plan
make your move
I promise I will see through it
it takes a sudden change of mind
see! I've left the game behind
I've got the style
I know the way to do it
put on your dancing shoes
CHORUS
(there's) something bigger going on
(so) who do you depend upon?
(the) best of three is not enough
I'm gonna call your bluff
well keep your hands up
keep your hand where I can see it
no, no, no, one more time
do it one more time
I can feel it’s my moment
I’ll be better than you
right, best of three here we go again
CHORUS

Glow In The Dark
04:27

it’s late in the evening, I’m laughing through my tears
that’s when I noticed the stars
they were dancing for me in a clear velvet sky
ah, the times you don’t know who you are
so I joined in the dance, let go of the memories
and a still, small voice whispering
C H O R U S
you may cry when it’s raining, there’s no trace of tears
smile away the shadows but never your fears
you’re always chasing rainbows - there’s never enough
just glow in the dark
I could see far below me the tracks of a child
running wild by the edge of the sea
all those hills she had climbed, bridges she cross
you never know what it costs to be free
so I flew down beside her, took her in my arms
and her face was the light of the dawn
C H O R U S
you may cry when it’s raining, there’s no trace of tears
smile away the shadows but never your fears
you’re always chasing rainbows - there’s never enough
just glow in the dark
on the horizon
the sun is slowly rising
through the stars -
healing the scars
C H O R U S
you may cry when it’s raining, there’s no trace of tears
smile away the shadows but never your fears
you’re always chasing rainbows - there’s never enough
just glow in the dark
