Who will cry for the little boy, lost and all alone?
Who will cry for the little boy, abandoned without his own?
Who will cry for the little boy? He cried himself to sleep.
Who will cry for the little boy? He never had for keeps.
Who will cry for the little boy? He walked the burning sand.
Who will cry for the little boy? The boy inside the man.
Who will cry for the little boy? Who knows well hurt and pain.
Who will cry for the little boy? He died and died again.
Who will cry for the little boy? A good boy he tried to be.
Who will cry for the little boy, who cries inside of me?
We are vastly different,
And yet there's common ground.
You're the warmth of the sun, I'm a blossoming flower,
You're the moon's glow, I'm a tranquil stream's power.
The stars you embody twinkle in my eyes,
Though we exist separate, we feel love's ties.
We dance to rhythms of life and its wonders,
Drawn to each other, star-crossed lovers.
Our love is endless, boundless and true,
Through the light and the darkness, we see it through.
You and I, together or apart,
Forever in love, heart to heart.
I've lived for eons, beyond all count,
When dragons roamed and ruled about,
When kings ascended regal thrones,
I saw it all, those grandiose zones.
I've watched as presidents rose and fell,
Celebrities, empire builders as well,
Experienced both joy and bitter strife,
And now I ponder, reflecting on life.
I wonder what the gods might see,
When they gaze upon humanity,
Do they spy towering spires to the skies,
And marvel at our planes that fly?
Or perhaps they view with saddened eyes,
As rockets soar, we fuel demise,
For what if what they see instead,
Is all the hurt and pain widespread?
How far the mighty human race has fallen,
Our selfish ways a stain upon our face.
What if our greed and evil ways,
Have left us lost in this dismal maze?
Let us aspire to rise again,
To be our better selves, to mend,
To rebuild, to heal and to sustain,
A brighter future for all to gain.
Around the corner I have a friend,
In this great city that has no end;
Yet the days go by, and weeks rush on,
And before I know it a year is gone,
And I never see my old friend's face,
For Life is a swift and terrible race.
He knows I like him just as well,
As in the days when I rang his bell,
And he rang mine. We were younger then,
And now we are busy, tired men:
Tired with playing a foolish game,
Tired with trying to make a name.
"To-morrow," I say, "I will call on Jim
"Just to show that I'm thinking of him."
But to-morrow comes -- and to-morrow goes,
And distance between us grows and grows.
Around the corner -- yet miles away,...
"Here's a telegram sir,..."
"Jim died today."
And that's what we get, and deserve in the end:
Around the corner, a vanished friend.
I died
So many years ago
But you can make me feel
Like it isn't so
And why you come to be with me
I think I finally know
mmm-mmm
You're scared
Ashamed of what you feel
And you can't tell the ones you love
You know they couldn't deal
Whisper in a dead man's ear
It doesn't make it real
That's great
But I don't wanna play
'Cause being with you touches me
More than I can say
And since I’m only dead to you
I’m saying stay away and
Let me rest in peace
Let me rest in peace
Let me get some sleep
Let me take my love and bury it
In a hole 6-foot deep
I can lay my body down
But I can't find my, sweet release
So let me rest in peace
You know,
You got a willing slave
And You just love to play the thought
That you might misbehave
But Till you do,
I'm telling you
Stop visiting my grave
Let me rest in peace
I know I should go
But I follow you like a man possessed
There's a traitor here beneath my breast
And it hurts me more than you've ever guessed
If my heart could beat, it would break my chest
but I can see you're unimpressed
So leave me be and
Let me rest in peace
Let me get some sleep
Let me take my love and bury it
Im a hole 6-foot deep
I can lay my body down
But I can't find my sweet release
Let me rest in peace
Why won't you
Let me rest in peace?
I never promised you a ray of light,
I never promised there'd be sunshine everyday,
I give you everything I have, the good, the bad.
Why do you put me on a pedestal,
I'm so up high that I can't see the ground below,
So help me down you've got it wrong, I don't belong there.
Chorus:
One thing is clear,
I wear a halo,
I wear a halo when you look at me,
But standing from here, you wouldn't say so
you wouldn't say so, if you were me
And I, I just wanna love you,
Oh oh I, I just wanna love you
Verse 2
I always said that I would make mistakes,
I'm only human, and that�s my saving grace,
I fall as hard as I try
So don't be blinded
See me as I really am, I have flaws and sometimes I even sin,
so pull me from that pedestal,
I don't belong there.
Chorus:
One thing is clear,
I wear a halo,
I wear a halo when you look at me,
But standing from here, you wouldn't say so
you wouldn't say so, if you were me
And I, I just wanna love you,
Oh oh I, I just wanna love you
Why you think that you know me
But In your eyes
I am something above you
It�s only in your mind
Only in your mind
I wear a
I wear a
I wear a Halo
One thing is clear,
I wear a halo,
I wear a halo when you look at me,
But standing from here, you wouldn't say so
you wouldn't say so, if you were me
And I, I just wanna love you,
Oh oh I, I just wanna love you
I met you not quite long ago,
Talked with you and somehow fell in love.
I wished I could have stayed with you,
But i just had to go back home.
And I will never forget,
A girl who I met and the times that we had.
Those lips, and those eyes, and those beautiful nights,
Will be in my dreams till I die.
Never thought that I will miss you so,
My friends tell me that I should move on.
But I guess, I will never be able to,
to forgot who you are and who you were.
Even If I try my best.
And I will never forget,
A girl who I met and the times that we had.
Those lips, and those eyes, and those beautiful nights
Will be in my dreams till I die.
I do still hear from you,
And it hurts that I can't see you.
It something that I look up to,
Well I think, I really love you
Love you.
And I will never forget,
A girl who I met and the times that we had.
Those lips, and those eyes, and those beautiful nights
Will be in my dreams till I die.
