1.If Only Had My Mind On Something Else
verse 1:
I could be king of kings ; wear a crown and all the things
I'd want I'd never need.
I'd be an ace in an aeroplane and every year I'd fly to Spain.
If I could get the nerve to plant the seed.
chorus:
Oh, tell me how to say goodbye.
I see her face in myself.
Why, tell me why I made her cry
If only had my mind on something else.
verse 2:
Captain of the submarine beneath the icebergs never seen.
A hero with a medal for ev'ryday.
I find me fame,reach the top.
I keep on pushing never stop.
If I could just forget her name.
chorus:
end:
If only had my mind on something else.
2.I.O.I.O.
I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O.
I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O.
I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O.
I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O.
You know I love getting up in the morning
When the sun first strikes the trees
All the morning birds that sing above
Still bring back memories
Of a girl who stood beside me
When the rights I did were wrong
But she went back down the river
Just when I thought I could be strong
When I thought I could be strong, so I sing
I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O.
I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O.
She never told me why she left me
But the letter say goodbye
Now my mornings are for wondering
And my nights to reason why
Why a stranger comes to steal the love
Of a girl I had to hold
But she went back down the river
Just when I thought I could be strong
When I thought I could be strong, so I sing
I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O.
I sing, I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O.
I sing, I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O.
I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O.
I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O.
I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O.
I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O.
3.Then You Left Me
I never ask for any time from you baby.
I never ask for any lies.
You only hurt the one you love the most baby.
You only had to make me cry.
'Cause you left me (you left me) all alone (you left me)
You left me(you left me) to stand alone.
And ev'ry night I sit beside my bed baby.
And I keep thinking of your love.
The things we dreamed about.
How much I love you baby.
We had the world and the stars above.
But then you left me (you left me) all alone.(you left me)
You left me . You left me (you left me) to stand alone.
You left me to stand alone.
You left me to stand alone.
You left me. You left me. You left me. You left me.

5.I Was The Child
When I was you we walked to school
And I carried your books 'cause even then I was a fool
But you grew up and said goodbye
I still remember the things that made me cry
For all too soon my story ends
I found a love, now not even friends
Tell me why
loving you , loving me like you used to do
I was the child
I held your hand and I told you things
And I made you believe, believe in fairy tales
and diamond rings
hen all too soon my story ends
I found a love ,now not even friends
Tell me why
loving you , loving me like you used to do
I was the child
Ah .....
6.I Lay Down And Die
Only last night when your arms held me tight
you told me you thought our love could last forever, forever
I was the one that gave you all the love when I thought
that our love could last forever, forever
I lay down and die
The whole world joins in
And everyone cries as teardrops begin
I lay down and die
And when darkness falls
can't seem right there at all
I lay down and die
The whole world joins in
I lay down and die. The teardrops begin.
I lay down and die. And die. And die.
I lay down and die. The whole world joins in
I lay down and die and the teardrops begin
I lay down and die and I lay down and die
7.Sweetheart
If your heart tells you so that you should leave me
Don't try to forget , you and I never met
And before you fly, one kiss should tell me why
You've forgotten all the words that you once said
Long as I've got you there beside me
Long as you're there to stand and guide me
The love we share no one can ever tear apart
Long as I've got this life I'm living
Long as it's you the love I'm with then
I'll keep on calling you sweetheart
If my love for you can't make you happy
Just open the door and you won't see my anymore
And before you fly , one kiss should tell me why
You've forgotten all the words that you once said
When you said
Long as I've got you there beside me
Long as you're there to stand and guide me
The love we share no one could ever tear apart
Long as I've got this life I'm living
Long as it's you the love I'm with then
I'll keep on calling you sweetheart
And I'll keep on calling you sweetheart
8.Bury Me Down by the River
I wasn't born in the morning, no
I must have been born in the night
I've done my load and I'll carry my load
And all I own is my life
I wasn't born to be lucky ,
'cause luck had no future with me
I've done my wrong and I'll sing, sing, sing my song
and stand beneath the hanging tree
Bury me down by the river
Let all the towns people see
Their enemy's dead, let me lay, lay my head
Just put me down and set me free
I wasn't born as a rich man, no
A rich man I never, I never could be
I've done my wrong and I'll sing, sing, sing my song
And stand beneath the hanging tree (Everybody sing now)
Bury me down by the river, lord no
Let all the towns people see, see
Their enemy's dead, let me lay, lay, lay my head
Just put me down and set me free
(I want to hear everybody sing)
Bury me down by the river
Let all the towns, let all the towns people see
Their enemy's dead, let me lay, let met lay, let me lay my head
along
Just put me down and set me free (set me free)
9.My Thing
I see my dog lying under the table
I see him licking my brother's girlfriend's hand
La de da da da
La de du da de du da de du du
I can't understand those eyes that keep staring at me
I can't understand how you do what you do to me
I keep on looking for you everywhere
I can't get used to the feeling you're giving me
Bowzey wow wowzey
Bowzey wow wowzey bow wowzey bow wowzey
du du du du
la la la la la la la la la
10.The Chance of Love
You and me we're both the same
In this life a lonely game
I used to be a happy man
And now I understand just what it's all about
I never had a doubt on the chance of love
As a boy I lived down here
I always saw you near
To be together was happiness
And I just can't forget the moment we first kissed
I'd like to try again on the chance of love
Yeah, on the chance of love
I'll do anything to get you by my side
On the sound of love I will love you girl
You'll be mine
All the world would then be free
An apple falls from an apple tree
You and I will be together
And you will understand when I take your hand
I'll open up the door to the chance of love
11.Turning Tide
What would I say if you should turn away from me
I do not know if there are words that I can see
I only know that I am reaching too high
And who are we to touch the wind
and say our ship is coming in
The turning tide
Tell me the answer in your changing mind, changing mind
I don't know if love can last
When time is gone and we are on the roundabout
Would you still laugh and be a clown when love runs out
Or will you say that I am reaching too high
And who are we to touch the wind
and say our ship is coming in
The turning tide
And who are we to touch the the wind
and say our ship is coming in
The turning tide
12.Don't Forget To Remember
Oh my heart won't believe that you have left me
I keep telling my self that it's true
I can get over anything you want my love
But I can't get myself over you
Don't forget to remember me
And the love that used to be
I still remember you
I love you
In my heart lies a memory to tell the stars above
Don't forget to remember me my love
On my wall lies a photograph of you girl
Though I try to forget you somehow
You're the mirror of my soul so take me out of my hole
Let me try to go on living right now
Don't forget to remember me
And the love that used to be
I still remember you
I love you
In my heart lies a memory to tell the stars above
Don't forget to remember me my love
