Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy, sunshine in my eyes can make me cry.  
Sunshine on the water looks so lovely, sunshine almost always makes me high.  
If I had a day that I could give you, I’d give to you the day just like today.  
If I had a song that I could sing for you, I’d sing a song to make you feel this way.

</div>

Softly, deftly, music shall caress you  
Hear it, feel it, secretly possess you  
Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind  
In this darkness which you know you cannot fight  
The darkness of the music of the night

Close your eyes start a journey through a strange, new world  
Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before  
Close your eyes and let music set you free  
Only then can you belong to me

There’s a land that I see  
Where the children are free  
And I say it ain’t far  
To this land from where we are

There is a place where dreams are born and time is never planned.  
It’s not there on any chart, you must find it with your heart: Never-Never-Land.

Wish upon a star  
Take a step enter the land  
walk through the air  
Take my hand  
Wishmaster’s will  
Join him the quest of dream  
A make-believe  
Is all we need  
Wish upon a star  
No matter wgçho you are  
The second star to the right  
Harbinger’s gate  
Beyond the boundaries  
Blossom ballet  
In the great wide somewhere  
Wish upon a star  
Believe in will  
The realm of the king of fantasy  
The master of the tale-like lore  
the way to kingdom I adore  
Where the warrior’s heat is pure  
Where the stories will come true

Janie’s got a gun  
Janie’s got a gun  
Her whole world’s come undone  
From lookin’ straight at the sun  
What did her daddy do?  
What did he put you through?  
They said when Janie was arrested  
they found him underneath a train  
But man, he had it comin’  
Now that Janie’s got a gun  
she ain’t never gonna be the same.

So all alone I keep the wolves at bay  
There is only one thing that I can say

Did you stand by me  
Did you stand by me  
No, not at all  
Did you stand by me  
No way

The wolves, my love, will come  
Taking us home where dust once was a man  
Is there life before a death?  
Do we long too much?  
(And never let in)

Howl! Seven days to the wolves  
Where will we be when they come?  
Seven days to the poison  
And a place in heaven  
Time drawing near us  
They come to take us

Whistle down the wind  
Let your voices carry  
Drown out all the rain  
Light a patch of darkness  
Treacherous and scary

Howl at the stars  
Whisper when you’re sleepy  
I’ll be there to hold you  
I’ll be there to stop  
The chills and all the weeping

Make it clear and strong  
So the whole night long  
Every signal that you send  
Until the very end  
I will not abandon you my precious friend

Under the Arctic fire  
Over the seas of silence  
Hauling on frozen ropes  
For all my days remaining  
One North be true…

All colours bleed to red  
Asleep on the ocean’s bed  
Drifting on empty seas  
For all my days remaining

One North be true…

Why should I?  
Why should I cry for you?  
Dark angels follow me  
Over a godless sea  
Mountains of endless falling,  
For all my days remaining,

One North be true…

Sometimes I see your face,  
The stars seem to lose their place  
Why must I think of you?  
Why must I?  
Why should I?  
Why should I cry for you?  
Why would you want me to?  
And what would it mean to say,  
That, “I loved you in my fashion”?

Now I’ve seen you in blue and I’ve seen you in yellow  
But only you red will do for this fellow  
For you are the Abbott to my Costello  
And you are the fruit to my loom

So don’t be afraid to let them show  
Your true colors  
True colors  
Are beautiful like a rainbow

So true funny how it seems  
Always in time, but never in line for dreams.  
Head over heels when toe to toe.  
This is the sound of my soul,  
This is the sound

I bought a ticket to the world,  
But now I’ve come back again  
Why do I find it hard to write the next line?  
Oh I want the truth to be said

Huh huh huh hu-uh huh  
I know this much is true

Tell you straight - no intervention.

I’ll hide behind a smile  
And understanding eyes  
And I’ll tell you things that you already know  
So you can say  
I really identify with you, so much  
And all the time that you’re needing me  
Is just the time that I’m bleeding you  
Don’t you get it yet?  
I’ll come to you like an affliction  
And I’ll leave you like an addiction  
You’ll never forget me  
You wanna know why?  
Cause I’m a liar  
Yeah I’m a liar  
I’ll rip your mind out  
I’ll burn your soul  
I’ll turn you into me  
I’ll turn you into me  
Cause I’m a liar, a liar  
Liar, liar, liar, liar

Oh Maggie I wish I’d never seen your face  
You made a first-class fool out of me  
But I’m as blind as a fool can be  
You stole my heart but I love you anyway
