I love you and you love me  
And that’s the way it’s got to be  
I loved you from the start  
'Cause Christmas ain’t the time for breaking each other’s heart

Don’t go breaking my heart  
I couldn’t if I tried  
Honey, if I get restless  
Baby, you’re not that kind

As I walk this land with broken dreams  
I have visions of many things  
But happiness is just an illusion  
Filled with sadness and confusion  
What becomes of the broken-hearted  
Who had love that’s now departed?  
I know I’ve got to find  
Some kind of peace of mind  
Maybe

Don’t argue amongst yourselves  
Because of the loss of me  
I’m sitting amongst yourselves  
Don’t think you can’t see me  
Don’t argue amongst yourselves  
Because of the loss of me  
I haven’t gone anywhere  
But out of my body

Yes, it seems so long  
Girl, since you’ve been gone  
And I just can’t go on  
If you won’t see me (you won’t see me)  
You won’t see me (you won’t see me)

Spending all my nights, all my money going out on the town  
Doing anything just to get you off of my mind  
But when the morning comes, I’m right back where I started again  
Trying to forget you is just a waste of time

I didn’t know it would be so strong  
Waiting and wondering about you  
I didn’t know it would last so long  
Nights are forever without you

Love can make you weep  
Can make you run for cover  
Roots that spread so deep  
Bring life to frozen ground

Something so strong  
Could carry us away  
Something so strong  
Could carry us today

Cuddle up baby  
Keep it all out of sight

Undercover

Undercover angel, midnight fantasy

You made me know that there’s a love for me out there

Come fly with me, let’s float down to Peru  
In llama-land there’s a one-man band  
And he’ll toot his flute for you  
Come fly with me, let’s take off in the blue

Supposing you need a vacation  
Brazil is the place you should be  
So you can’t understand what they’re saying  
Or you can’t read a sign that you see  
But, you don’t have to know the language  
With the moon in the sky  
And the girl in your arms  
And a look in her eyes

If you visit American city,  
You will find it very pretty.  
Just two things of which you must beware:  
Don’t drink the water and don’t breathe the air!

Lemon tree very pretty, and the lemon flower is sweet,  
but the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat.

Turn 'em to lemonade
