Being good isn’t good enough
Being good won’t be good enough
When I fly, I must fly extra high
And I’ll need special wings so far to go
From so far below
Should I try?
Am I strong enough?
Is there time, have I long enough?
Gotta fly and if I fall
That’s the way it’s gotta be
There’s no other way for me
Being good just won’t be good enough
I’ll be the best or nothing at all
*In the arms of the Angel
Fly away from here
From this dark, cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear…
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You’re in the arms of the Angel
May you find some comfort there…*
Undercover angel
Midnight fantasy
I never had a dream that made sweet love to me
Undercover angel
The answer to my prayer
You made me know that there’s a love for me out there
My prayer and the answer you give,
May they still be the same for as long as we live,
That you’ll always be there at the end of my prayer.
Wherever you go, wherever you may wander in your life,
Surely you know I always want to be there.
Holding your hand, and standing by to catch you when you fall.
Seeing you through in everything you do.
Let me be there in your morning,
Let me be there in your night.
Let me take whatever’s wrong, and make it right (make it right)
Let me take you to that wonderland that only two can share.
All I ask you is, let me be there.
ps — I love the bass vocal part on this chorus!
-“BB”-
Wherever we go, whatever we do
We’re gonna go through it together
We may not go far but sure as a star
Wherever we are it’s together
Through thick and through thin, all out or all in
And whether it’s win, place or show
With you for me and me for you
We’ll muddle through whatever we do
Together wherever we go
Win, place or show (Win, place or show)
She’s number one at my door
My baby, she’s a winner (She’s a winner)
Around the last lap into the home stretch
They’re running neck to neck
And, my baby and another woman
And my baby, she’s the winner!
(Ooohooohooo)
And it’s run for the roses,
As fast as you can.
Your fate is delivered,
Your moment’s at hand.
It’s the chance of a lifetime,
In a lifetime of chance.
And it’s high time you joined,
In the dance.
You better run for your life if you can, little girl
Hide your head in the sand, little girl
Catch you with another man
That’s the end, little girl
Me used to be angry young man
Me hiding me head in the sand
You gave me the word
I finally heard
I’m doing the best that I can
I’ve got to admit it’s getting better
Hello cowgirl in the sand
Is this place at your command
Can I stay here for a while
Can I see your sweet sweet smile
Met you at the mall
Didn’t know how far I would fall
My friends said I was a fool (You’re a fool) (Shut up)
Cause you were older and all kicked out of school (You were so rad)
Together we were gonna travel the globe
From Alberta to Ontario
But now I’m building…
Sandcastles in the sand (Sandcastles in the sand)
Thought I could fly when you held my hand (Thought I could fly)
Eternity turns to black and white
It was the greatest week and a half of my life
I can’t light no more of your darkness
All my pictures seem to fade to black and white
I’m growing tired and time stands still before me
Frozen here on the ladder of my life
It’s much too late to save myself from falling
I took a chance and changed your way of life
But you misread my meaning when I met you
Closed the door and left me blinded by the light
She’s a good girl, loves her mama
Loves Jesus and America, too
She’s a good girl, crazy ‘bout Elvis
Loves horses and her boyfriend, too
And it’s a long day livin’ in Reseda
There’s a freeway runnin’ through the yard
And I’m a bad boy, ‘cause I don’t even miss her
I’m a bad boy for breakin’ her heart
And I’m free, free fallin’
Yeah I’m free, free fallin’
I’m free, I’m free
And freedom tastes of reality
I’m free, I’m free
And I’m waiting for you to follow me
Free!
Sing it!
Free!
Spell it!
F-R- double–
No, the long way!
F-R-E-E!
Free!
Sing, sing, sing, sing
Sing it out as hard as you can
Make 'em hear from L.A. to Japan
Don’t let 'em bring you down
This is how we do it now
Go and roll them windows down and
Sing, sing, sing, sing
When the music goes around,
Everybody’s goes go to town.
But here is one thing you should know
Sing sing sing sing everybody start to sing like dee dee dee, bah bah bah dah
Now you’re singin with a swing.
And you know the sun’s settin’ fast
And just like they say nothing good ever lasts
Well, go on now and kiss it goodbye but hold on to your lover
‘Cause your heart’s bound to die
Go on now and say goodbye to our town, to our town
Can’t you see the sun’s settin’ down on our town, on our town
Goodnight
In my little town
I grew up believing
God keeps his eye on us all
And he used to lean upon me
As I pledged allegiance to the wall
Lord, I recall my little town
Coming home after school
Flying my bike past the gates of the factories
My mom doing the laundry
Hanging out shirts in the dirty breeze
And after it rains there’s a rainbow
And all of the colors are black
It’s not that the colors aren’t there
It’s just imagination they lack
Everything’s the same back in my little town
