It's all about our love
So shall it be forever, never ending
After all this time
After all is said and done
We have seen some suffering, baby
It has not always been perfect
After all this time
After all is said and done
Darling, we know it, whatever may come
We can get through it as if it's just begun
Oh, it's just begun
It's all about our love
So shall it be forever, never ending
Darling we k...
Step off the train, walking down your street again
Passed your door, but you don't live there anymore
It's years since you've been there, and now you've disappeared somewhere
To outta space, you've found some better place
chorus:
And I miss you, like the deserts miss the rain
And I miss you, oh, like the deserts miss the rain
Could you be dead? You always were two steps ahead
And eveyrone, wou...
I was so in love with you
You rarely see a love that true
Wasn't that enough for you?
Wasn't that enough for you?
I would climb a mountain
I wouldn't want to see you fall
Rock climb for you
And give you a reason for it all
You kept on thinking
You were the only one
Too busy thinking
Love is a gun
Hit me like a slow bullet
Like a slow bullet
It took me some time to realize it
You kept on thinki...
You think I'd leave your side baby
You know me better than that
You think I'd leave you down when you're down on your knees
I wouldn't do that
I'll tell you you're right when you want
And if only you could see into me
Oh when you're cold, I'll be there
Hold you tight to me
When you're on the outside baby and you can't get in
I will show you, you're so much better than you know
When you're lost...
You're ruling the way that I move
Not breathe your air
You only can rescue me
This is my prayer
If you were mine
If you were mine
I wouldn't want to go
To heaven
I cherish the day
I won't go astray
I won't be afraid
You won't catch me running
You're ruling the way that I move
You take my air
You show me how deep love can be
You're ruling the way that I move
Not breathe your air
You only can re...

Gotta find out what I meant to you
You're the one who broke my heart
Gotta find out what I meant to you
You're the one who broke my heart
When I met you boy, you were as sweet as cherry pie
That smiling eye you were as wild as Friday night
I should have known how ever hard you try

It was bound to die
You were sweet as cherry pie

Clean dream bad start
He loved his brother and his sister Luke and Tony called him Mister
They made him feel much more like a man
He loved his daddy though he never told him
And how he loved his mama, he loved, he loved her like an Italian
Little Janet said you look so fine, so fine
Something in his smile made them feel like strangers
And then he straightened his b...
He laughing with another girl
And playing with another heart
Placing high stakes
Making hearts ache
He's lovely
Seven nights and days
Diamond nights and groupie life
High in the sky
Heaven help him when he falls
Diamond life, lover boy
We move in space
We've been on our ways for maximum joy
City lights
Business nights
When we require
Street court desire for higher [...]
No place for beginners ...
Love is what the word was
I saw a picture
How could you be so careless?
How could you have done that to us?
And I write this letter
Send it all back to you
And every word you said
In there every word, oh oh oh oh
How could you have done that to us?
You treated me like a stranger
And all the time I was loving you
All your slick moves they were once innocent moves
I wanted to look up to you
I re...
Blue is the colour of the red sky
Will he, will he come home tonight?
Blue is the colour that she feels inside
Matador, I can't hide my fear anymore
Azul es el color del rojo cielo
Volvera, volvera a mi esta noche
Azul es el color que siente a dentro
Matador, no puedo esconder mi temor
Can she tame the beast that is her fear?
Puede domar la fiera que es su temor
Waiting for her matador

Ooh baby, mmm
When you hold me
When you hold me
The sound
Is it possible I could feel this cool?
I could really love you the way I do
Is it possible I could feel this good?
I could really love you the way I do
See me

Flowing
Take me to you
Like the river to the sea
You come down
I'm in the light
You cover
Pull me to you
And the waves rush over me
I feel a love light rush over ...
Frankie, didn't I tell you?
You've got the world

You know the tricks

Ohh, it's a crying shame, mmm
You left a trail of destruction

In heaven's name
why are you walking away?
Hang on to your love.
In heaven's name
why do you play these games?
Hang on to your love.
Take time if you're down on luck
it's so easy to walk out on love.
Take your time if the going gets tough
it's so presious.
So
if you want it to get stronger
you'd better not let go.
You've gotta hold on longer if you want your love to grow.
You gotta stick toget...
Haunt me in my dreams if you please
Your breath is with me now
And always it's like a breeze
So should you ever doubt me
If it's help that you need
Never dare to doubt me
And if you want to sleep I'll be quiet like an angel
As quiet as your soul could be
If you only knew you had a friend like me
So should you ever doubt me
If it's help that you need
Never dare to doubt me
I couldn't love you more
If time was running out
I couldn't love you more
Oh, right now baby
Oh, right now baby
Take me by the hand come on
Be my darling, be the one
I wouldn't want to lay
Or ever love with another
If everyone in the world

You shed a shadow on my life
Shed a shadow on a love
Took the shelter out of my life
Took the shelter of a lie
I could see it in your restless eyes
The truth I was hiding
The truth you could not disguise
But I never thought I'd see the day
I knew I'd need a miracle to make you stay
I knew I needed a miracle
And I never thought I'd see the day
You put a shadow on a love
Took a shelter of a lie

I know that lately
Things haven't been so good
I've always said
If I could ever help you, I would
Ooh hoo, ooh hoo
I love you for a thousand years
Ooh hoo, ooh hoo
I'm here to wipe away the tears
I will be your friend
Until the end of time
I will be your friend
I'm here to make you smile
When your falling apart
I pick up each piece and build a wall around your dream
The punches to you heart

Coming from where he did
He was turned away from
Every door like Joseph
To even the toughest among us
That would be too much
He didn't know what it was to be black
'Til they gave him his change
But didn't want to touch his hand
To even the toughest among us
That would be too much
Isn't it just enough?
How hard it is to live
Isn't it hard enough?
Just to make it through a day
The secret of thei...
This may come, this may come as some surprise
But I miss you
I could see through all of your lies
But still I miss you
He takes her love, but it doesn't feel like mine
He tastes her kiss, her kisses are not wine, they're not mine
He takes, but surely she can't give what I'm feeling now
She takes, but surely she doesn't know how
Is it a crime
Is it a crime
That I still want you
And I want you t...
Girl you are rich even with nothing
And you know tenderness comes from pain
It's amazing how you love
And love is kind and love can give
And get no gain
It's down a rugged road you've come
Though you had every reason
You didn't come undone
Somehow you made it to the other side
You didn't suffer in vain
You forgive those who have trespassed against you
And you know tenderness comes from pain

Jezebel wasn't born with a silver spoon in her mouth
She probably had less than every one of us
But when she knew how to walk she knew
How to bring the house down
Can't blame her for her beauty
She wins with her hands down
Jezebel, what a belle
Looks like a princess in her new dress
How did you get that?
"Do you really want to know", she said
It would seem she's on her way
It's more, more than...
Some will tell you that you're wrong
You do it all the wrong way
Some will tell you that you're wrong
That you don't know the way
They enjoy cheapness don't show your weakness
Don't let them bother you, no
They enjoy cheapness don't show your weakness
Oh no
It's no use sitting down, don't walk round with a frown
Oh no, keep looking
It's no use sitting around with your head in your hands
Oh no,...
Pretty little thing...
She held all the magic,
that's so hard to believe...
Never too far away... It's hard to conceive...
Never thought she'd have to go.
Never thought she'd leave.
It came like a killer blow,
killer blow...
Funny, isn't it?
That a little girl can make the world seem so small...
Hard to believe, the little girl can seem so tall...
And the thing that he calls love, isn't thick ...
I'm cryin' everyone's tears
And there inside our private war I died the night before
And all of these remnants of joy and disaster
What am I suppose to do?
I want to cook you a soup that warms your soul
But nothin' would change, nothin' would change at all
It's just a day that brings it all about
Just another day and nothin's any good
The D.J's playin' the same song

There must have been an angel by my side
Something heavenly led me to you
Look at the sky
It's the color of love
There must have been an angel by my side
Something heavenly came down from above
He led me to you
He led me to you
He built a bridge to your heart
All the way
How many tons of love inside
I can't say
When I was led to you
I knew you were the one for me
I swear the whole world could ...
He told me sweet lies of sweet loves
Heavy with the burden of the truth
He spoke of his dreams
Broken by the burden
Broken by the burden of his youth
Fourteen years, he said
I couldn't look into the sun
She saw him laying at the end of my gun
Hungry for life
And thirsty for the distant river
I remember his hands
And the way the mountains looked
The light shot diamonds from his eyes
Hungry for ...
I won't pretend that I intend to stop living
I won't pretend I'm good at forgiving
But I can't hate you
Though I have tried
Aaa, aaa, aaa, aaa, aaa
I still really, really love you
Love is stronger than pride
I still really, really love you
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
I won't pretend that I intend to stop living
I won't pretend I'm good at forgiving
But I can't hate you
Although I have tried

I am in the wilderness
You are in the music
In the man's car next to me
Somewhere in my sadness
I know, I won't fall apart completely
When I need to be rescued
And I need a place to swim
I have a rock to cling to in the storm
When no one can hear me calling
I have you, I can sing to
And in all this
And in all my life
You are the lovers rock
The rock that I cling to
You're the one
The one, I sw...

It's hard to explain
Never gonna see you again
And you'll never meet my new friends
Maureen, I miss you
I just can't explain
Never gonna see you again
I wish you could meet my new friends
Walking along the subway listening to
Loving you is easy acapella
You were a souped-up car in that rent-a-go-cart town
And I miss you Maureen
We're as thick as thieves
Maureen, Maureen

Good times they come and they go
Never going to know
What fate is going to blow
Your way just hope that it feels right
Sometimes it comes and it goes
You take it ever so slow
And then you lose it
Then it flows right to you
So we rely on the past
Special moments that last
Were they as tender
As we dare to remember
Such a fine time as this
What could equal the bliss
The thrill of the first kiss

I gave you more than I could give

A love like that won't last?
Didn't I give you all that I've got to give, baby?

Always hope that you remember
We'll never really learn the meanin' of it all
What we have is strong and tender
So hold on
In the middle of the madness
When the time is runnin' out and you're left alone
All I want is you to know that
It's strong still, can't pull us apart
Nothing can come between us
Nothing can pull us apart
Can come between us
I always hope that you remember

There is a woman in Somalia
Scraping for pearls on the roadside
There's a force stronger than nature
Keeps her will alive
This is how she's dying
She's dyin' to survive
Don't know what she's made of
I would like to be that brave
She cries to the heaven above
There is a stone in my heart
She lives a life she didn't choose

Understanding and peace of mind

Please send me someone to love

Put your hands together for Sally
She's the one who cared for them

Diamond life, lover boy
He move in space with minimum waste and maximum joy
City lights and business nights
When you require streetcar desire for higher heights
No place for beginners or sensitive hearts
Sentiment is left to chance
No place to be ending but somewhere to start
No need to ask
He's a smooth operator
Smooth operator
Smooth operator
Smooth operator
Coast to coast, L.A. to Chicago, ...
You came along when I needed a savior
Someone to pull me through somehow
I've been torn apart so many times
I've been hurt so many times before
So I'm counting on you now
Somebody already broke my heart
Somebody already broke my heart
Here I am, so don't leave me stranded
On the end of a line, hanging on the edge of a lie
I've been torn apart so many times
I've been hurt so many times before

Quietly while you were asleep
The moon and I were talking
I asked that she'd always keep you protected
She promised you her light

You bring your light and shine like morning
And then the wind pulls the clouds across the moon
Your light fills the darkest room
And I can see the miracle that keeps us from falling
She promised all the sweetest gifts

On the end of a line, hanging on the edge of a lie
I've been torn apart so many times
I've been hurt so many times before
S...
Quietly while you were asleep
The moon and I were talking
I asked that she'd always keep you protected
She promised you her light
That you so gracefully carry
You bring your light and shine like morning
And then the wind pulls the clouds across the moon
Your light fills the darkest room
And I can see the miracle that keeps us from falling
She promised all the sweetest gifts
That only the Heave...

It's all about our love
So shall it be forever, never ending
After all this time
After all is said and done
We have seen some suffering, baby
It has not always been perfect
After all this time
After all is said and done
Darling, we know it, whatever may come
We can get through it as if it's just begun
Oh, it's just begun
It's all about our love
So shall it be forever, never ending
Darling we k...
Love is what the word was
I saw a picture
How could you be so careless?
How could you have done that to us?
And I write this letter
Send it all back to you
And every word you said
In there every word, oh oh oh oh
How could you have done that to us?
You treated me like a stranger
And all the time I was loving you
All your slick moves they were once innocent moves
I wanted to look up to you
I re...
Coming from where he did
He was turned away from
Every door like Joseph
To even the toughest among us
That would be too much
He didn't know what it was to be black
'Til they gave him his change
But didn't want to touch his hand
To even the toughest among us
That would be too much
Isn't it just enough?
How hard it is to live
Isn't it hard enough?
Just to make it through a day
The secret of thei...
Girl you are rich even with nothing
And you know tenderness comes from pain
It's amazing how you love
And love is kind and love can give
And get no gain
It's down a rugged road you've come
Though you had every reason
You didn't come undone
Somehow you made it to the other side
You didn't suffer in vain
You forgive those who have trespassed against you
And you know tenderness comes from pain
It...
I'm cryin' everyone's tears
And there inside our private war I died the night before
And all of these remnants of joy and disaster
What am I suppose to do?
I want to cook you a soup that warms your soul
But nothin' would change, nothin' would change at all
It's just a day that brings it all about
Just another day and nothin's any good
The D.J's playin' the same song
I have so much to do, I hav...
I am in the wilderness
You are in the music
In the man's car next to me
Somewhere in my sadness
I know, I won't fall apart completely
When I need to be rescued
And I need a place to swim
I have a rock to cling to in the storm
When no one can hear me calling
I have you, I can sing to
And in all this
And in all my life
You are the lovers rock
The rock that I cling to
You're the one
The one, I sw...

Blue is the colour of the red sky
Will he, will he come home tonight?
Blue is the colour that she feels inside
Matador, I can't hide my fear anymore
Azul es el color del rojo cielo
Volvera, volvera a mi esta noche
Azul es el color que siente a dentro
Matador, no puedo esconder mi temor
Can she tame the beast that is her fear?
Puede domar la fiera que es su temor
Waiting for her matador
Will th...
Maureen
It's hard to explain
Never gonna see you again
And you'll never meet my new friends
Maureen, I miss you
I just can't explain
Never gonna see you again
I wish you could meet my new friends
Walking along the subway listening to
Loving you is easy acapella
You were a souped-up car in that rent-a-go-cart town
And I miss you Maureen
We're as thick as thieves
Maureen, Maureen
Remember when m...
He don't care
Where he's been playin'
He doesn't hear
The word she's sayin'
She's a fancy girl
So why's, she stayin'
Hangin' on for Mr. Wrong
He doesn't show her
That he needs her
She doesn't know
His love's a liar
She's a fancy girl
Got to be strong
Say so long, Mr. Wrong
Bye bye
Get out on your own girl
Show him how
You can be strong girl
You don't need him now
Run away, pretty girl
Say so l...
Grandma came to see somethin' she could not believe
How could her girl be so naive?
Tar baby, tar baby told the secret she conceived
Oh, that big old smile of yours could turn the wind into a song
How could I have doubted, honey it's with me that you belong
Tar baby, tar baby I love you so, I love you
Like a brand new blade you cut into my life
Cut through two decades like a hot coal on ice
Ta...
I could aim
But I could not fire
Got a bullet to spare
To kill my desire
Who's callin' the shots
One of us must make the peace
To have or to have not
The fire has got to cease
I'm loaded, fon't know
Where to point this thing
It's a sin, how we hit
Where it hurts
Who's calling the shots
One of us must end this masquerade
One of us
To have or to have not
Let's heal the wounds that we've made
It'...
You're not the man who gave me everything I've ever wanted
You're not the man who stepped inside my life and haunted
Every, everyday
You're not the one who said he'd never leave
Couldn't breathe and could not sleep without me
That was someone who you left behind a long time ago
You're not the man who would bleed for me never shed a tear
You're not the one said he'd always be near
You're not th...

Clean heart, clean and sharp
Clean dream bad start
He loved his brother and his sister Luke and Tony called him Mister
They made him feel much more like a man
He loved his daddy though he never told him
And how he loved his mama, he loved, he loved her like an Italian
Little Janet said you look so fine, so fine
Something in his smile made them feel like strangers
And then he straightened his b...
Tell me the secrets of your soul
Give it up and let go
Give it up
Give it all
Give it up
Give it all
Give it up
Give it all
Give it up
Give it all
I give you it all
I couldn't give you more if I tried
I give you my love
I give you everything I feel inside
I give you my life
It isn't a lie
I tell only the truth
I give you my love
I think I'd even die with you
Surrender your love
Surrender your ...
Haunt me in my dreams if you please
Your breath is with me now
And always it's like a breeze
So should you ever doubt me
If it's help that you need
Never dare to doubt me
And if you want to sleep I'll be quiet like an angel
As quiet as your soul could be
If you only knew you had a friend like me
So should you ever doubt me
If it's help that you need
Never dare to doubt me
You shed a shadow on my life
Shed a shadow on a love
Took the shelter out of my life
Took the shelter of a lie
I could see it in your restless eyes
The truth I was hiding
The truth you could not disguise
But I never thought I'd see the day
I knew I'd need a miracle to make you stay
I knew I needed a miracle
And I never thought I'd see the day
You put a shadow on a love
Took a shelter of a lie

Some will tell you that you're wrong
You do it all the wrong way
Some will tell you that you're wrong
That you don't know the way
They enjoy cheapness don't show your weakness
Don't let them bother you, no
They enjoy cheapness don't show your weakness
Oh no
It's no use sitting down, don't walk round with a frown
Oh no, keep looking
It's no use sitting around with your head in your hands
Oh no,...

To turn my back on you
Now would I turn my back on me
To turn my back on you
Now would I turn my back on me
No, I'm not gonna turn my back on you
You know, I'll never let you down, no way
I'll never let you down
I'll never let you down, no way
Try to tell you that it's alright
Ooh, I'm not playing
Can't you see what I'm saying
You are my religion
To turn my back on you
Now would I turn my back...

The Best Of Sade |
You're ruling the way that I move
Not breathe your air
You only can rescue me
This is my prayer
If you were mine
If you were mine
I wouldn't want to go
To heaven
I cherish the day
I won't go astray
I won't be afraid
You won't catch me running
You're ruling the way that I move
You take my air
You show me how deep love can be
You're ruling the way that I move
Not breathe your air
You only can re...
In heaven's name
why are you walking away?
Hang on to your love.
In heaven's name
why do you play these games?
Hang on to your love.
Take time if you're down on luck
it's so easy to walk out on love.
Take your time if the going gets tough
it's so presious.
So
if you want it to get stronger
you'd better not let go.
You've gotta hold on longer if you want your love to grow.
You gotta stick toget...
This may come, this may come as some surprise
But I miss you
I could see through all of your lies
But still I miss you
He takes her love, but it doesn't feel like mine
He tastes her kiss, her kisses are not wine, they're not mine
He takes, but surely she can't give what I'm feeling now
She takes, but surely she doesn't know how
Is it a crime
Is it a crime
That I still want you
And I want you t...
Jezebel wasn't born with a silver spoon in her mouth
She probably had less than every one of us
But when she knew how to walk she knew
How to bring the house down
Can't blame her for her beauty
She wins with her hands down
Jezebel, what a belle
Looks like a princess in her new dress
How did you get that?
"Do you really want to know", she said
It would seem she's on her way
It's more, more than...
There must have been an angel by my side
Something heavenly led me to you
Look at the sky
It's the color of love
There must have been an angel by my side
Something heavenly came down from above
He led me to you
He led me to you
He built a bridge to your heart
All the way
How many tons of love inside
I can't say
When I was led to you
I knew you were the one for me
I swear the whole world could ...
He told me sweet lies of sweet loves
Heavy with the burden of the truth
He spoke of his dreams
Broken by the burden
Broken by the burden of his youth
Fourteen years, he said
I couldn't look into the sun
She saw him laying at the end of my gun
Hungry for life
And thirsty for the distant river
I remember his hands
And the way the mountains looked
The light shot diamonds from his eyes
Hungry for ...
I won't pretend that I intend to stop living
I won't pretend I'm good at forgiving
But I can't hate you
Though I have tried
Aaa, aaa, aaa, aaa, aaa
I still really, really love you
Love is stronger than pride
I still really, really love you
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
I won't pretend that I intend to stop living
I won't pretend I'm good at forgiving
But I can't hate you
Although I have tried
Mmm, m...
Good times they come and they go
Never going to know
What fate is going to blow
Your way just hope that it feels right
Sometimes it comes and it goes
You take it ever so slow
And then you lose it
Then it flows right to you
So we rely on the past
Special moments that last
Were they as tender
As we dare to remember
Such a fine time as this
What could equal the bliss
The thrill of the first kiss
...
I gave you all the love I got
I gave you more than I could give
I gave you love
I gave you all that I have inside
And you took my love
You took my love
Didn't I tell you what I believe?
Did somebody say that
A love like that won't last?
Didn't I give you all that I've got to give, baby?
I gave you all the love I got
I gave you more than I could give
I gave you love
I gave you all that I have i...
Always hope that you remember
We'll never really learn the meanin' of it all
What we have is strong and tender
So hold on
In the middle of the madness
When the time is runnin' out and you're left alone
All I want is you to know that
It's strong still, can't pull us apart
Nothing can come between us
Nothing can pull us apart
Can come between us
I always hope that you remember
What we have is st...
I'd wash the sand off the shore
Give you the world if it was mine
Blow you right to my door
Feels fine
Feels like
You're mine
Feels right
So fine
I'm yours, you're mine
Like paradise
I'd give you the world if it was mine
Feels fine
Feels like you're mine
And I'm yours so fine
Like paradise
I'd wash the sand off the shore
Give you the world if it was mine
Blow you right to my door
Feels fine

There is a woman in Somalia
Scraping for pearls on the roadside
There's a force stronger than nature
Keeps her will alive
This is how she's dying
She's dyin' to survive
Don't know what she's made of
I would like to be that brave
She cries to the heaven above
There is a stone in my heart
She lives a life she didn't choose
And it hurts like brand new shoes
Hurts like brand new shoes
There is a w...
Heaven please send to all mankind
Understanding and peace of mind
But, if it's not asking too much
Please send me someone to love
Show the world how to get along
Peace will enter when hate is gone
But, if it's not asking too much
Please send me someone to love
I lay awake night and ponder world troubles
My answer is always the same
That unless men put an end to all of this
Hate will put the wo...
Diamond life, lover boy
He move in space with minimum waste and maximum joy
City lights and business nights
When you require streetcar desire for higher heights
No place for beginners or sensitive hearts
Sentiment is left to chance
No place to be ending but somewhere to start
No need to ask
He's a smooth operator
Smooth operator
Smooth operator
Smooth operator
Coast to coast, L.A. to Chicago, ...
If I tell you
If I tell you now
Will you keep on
Will you keep on lovin' me?
If I tell you
If I tell you how I feel
Will you keep bringin' out the best in me?
You give me, you give me the sweetest taboo
You give me, you're giving me the sweetest taboo
Too good for me
There's a quiet storm
And it never felt like this before
There's a quiet storm that is you
There's a quiet storm
And it never fe...
Your love is king, crown you in my heart
Your love is king, never need to part
Your kisses ring, round and round and round my head
Touching the very part of me, it's making my soul sing
Tearing the very heart of me, I'm crying out for more
Your love is king, crown you in my heart
Your love is king, you're the ruler of my heart
Your kisses ring, round and round and round my head
Touching the ve...
