I was born with a sacred sign
Mama said that I was born to shine
I'm special without any doubt
Just what it is, I haven't figured it out
Oh, woe is me
Why can't I do it right
Oh woe is me
Why can't I get it right
Oh woe is me
I know I'm half a cup
Oh woe is me
I'm just a fuck up
But it's just a disguise
I was chosen cuz God has a plan
That is why I'm not a working man
I don't worry how I am doing today
I'm just waiting for my big day
Oh, woe is me
Why can't I do it right
Oh woe is me
Why can't I get it right
Oh woe is me
I know I'm half a cup
Oh woe is me
I'm just a fuck up
But it's just a disguise
Oh, woe is me
Why can't I do it right
Oh woe is me
Why can't I get it right
Oh woe is me
I know I'm half a cup
Oh woe is me
I'm just a fuck up
But I'm gonna save the world
Yeah...

You only know what you don't know
Which way you're destined to go
You never know who you will meet
As you walk on down the street
People come and people go
However the winds may blow
Some you remember, some you forget
And some you haven't even met
Life goes on
I hope you found what you were looking for
Life is short
I hope you're there before they close the door
I'll see you at the better place
I'll see you at the better place
I'll see you there with a smiling face
I'll see you at the better place
I just want to thank you now
For loving me and showing me how
I know I promised I won't cry
But it's hard to say goodbye
Life goes on
I hope I find what I was looking for
Life is short
I hope I'm there before they close the door
I'll see you at the better place
I'll see you at the better place
I'll see you there with a smiling face
I'll see you at the better place
Sometimes I look around and it feels like we're sinkin'
You know, it's not a perfect place that we live in
And if the world don't look right, and it's dark as night
Don't be scared it's all right, there's a light, just follow the light.
I'll see you at the better place
I'll see you at the better place
I'll see you there with a smiling face
I'll see you at the better place
Which way you're destined to go
You never know who you will meet
As you walk on down the street
People come and people go
However the winds may blow
Some you remember, some you forget
And some you haven't even met
Life goes on
I hope you found what you were looking for
Life is short
I hope you're there before they close the door
I'll see you at the better place
I'll see you at the better place
I'll see you there with a smiling face
I'll see you at the better place
I just want to thank you now
For loving me and showing me how
I know I promised I won't cry
But it's hard to say goodbye
Life goes on
I hope I find what I was looking for
Life is short
I hope I'm there before they close the door
I'll see you at the better place
I'll see you at the better place
I'll see you there with a smiling face
I'll see you at the better place
Sometimes I look around and it feels like we're sinkin'
You know, it's not a perfect place that we live in
And if the world don't look right, and it's dark as night
Don't be scared it's all right, there's a light, just follow the light.
I'll see you at the better place
I'll see you at the better place
I'll see you there with a smiling face
I'll see you at the better place
Some say that I'm a player
A no-good love betrayer
But that was all before we met
And something I'd rather forget
All I want is to be good to you
I'm just trying to be my best for you
But you always see the worst in me
Yeah you only see the worst in me
I know that I'm no angel
My morality is hard to sell
But I've changed my ways I'm a different man
And I'm doing whatever I can
All I want is to be good to you
I'm just trying to be my best for you
But you always see the worst in me
Yeah you only see the worst in me
To prove my love I did the best I could
I am truthful and my intentions are good
But you always see the worst in me
Yeah you only see the worst in me
A no-good love betrayer
But that was all before we met
And something I'd rather forget
All I want is to be good to you
I'm just trying to be my best for you
But you always see the worst in me
Yeah you only see the worst in me
I know that I'm no angel
My morality is hard to sell
But I've changed my ways I'm a different man
And I'm doing whatever I can
All I want is to be good to you
I'm just trying to be my best for you
But you always see the worst in me
Yeah you only see the worst in me
To prove my love I did the best I could
I am truthful and my intentions are good
But you always see the worst in me
Yeah you only see the worst in me
I found a picture of us kissing the other day
We sure looked fine I must say
My world was you, you were the sun to my earth
Yeah I'm just saying, for what it's worth
Well I think about you now and then
Yes I think about it now and then
And I wonder if our paths should ever cross again
Would everything still be insane
We were young, everything was rock and roll
Letting our emotions take control
We were saved from killing ourselves somehow
Wish I knew what I know now
Well I think about you now and then
Yes I think about it now and then
And I wonder if our paths should ever cross again
Would everything still be insane
Now years went by, we have moved on in our lives
We all have husbands, kids, and wives
Life is good, peaceful I might say
We'd call it boring, back in the day
Well I think about you now and then
Yes I think about it now and then
And I wonder if our paths should ever cross again
Would everything still be insane
Would everything still be insane
Will you shoot a bullet through my brain
Well I think about you now and then
Yes I think about it now and then
Do you think about me now and then?
Do you think about it now and then?
We sure looked fine I must say
My world was you, you were the sun to my earth
Yeah I'm just saying, for what it's worth
Well I think about you now and then
Yes I think about it now and then
And I wonder if our paths should ever cross again
Would everything still be insane
We were young, everything was rock and roll
Letting our emotions take control
We were saved from killing ourselves somehow
Wish I knew what I know now
Well I think about you now and then
Yes I think about it now and then
And I wonder if our paths should ever cross again
Would everything still be insane
Now years went by, we have moved on in our lives
We all have husbands, kids, and wives
Life is good, peaceful I might say
We'd call it boring, back in the day
Well I think about you now and then
Yes I think about it now and then
And I wonder if our paths should ever cross again
Would everything still be insane
Would everything still be insane
Will you shoot a bullet through my brain
Well I think about you now and then
Yes I think about it now and then
Do you think about me now and then?
Do you think about it now and then?
Well you and I, we're worlds apart
Yet together we live on this planet we didn't choose how
And you and I, with our inadequate hearts
We get scared and we never see what we don't understand now
Well the world is ever-changing
You can live in your bubble today
Yeah everything is rearranging
Evolution's on the way
I just wanna be who I am
I don't need you to tell me how I am
Say what you want, I don't give a damn
Don't judge me, just respect who I am
I may not be what you want me to be
I just want you to love me for what I am
And it's alright, to be different from me
We believe in what we believe, so it's all the same
Well the world is ever-changing
You can live in your bubble today
Yeah everything is rearranging
Evolution's on the way
I just wanna be who I am
I don't need you to tell me how I am
Say what you want, I don't give a damn
Don't judge me, just respect who I am
We're all unique, and we ring our different bells
And so different just like everyone else
I just wanna be who I am
I don't need you to tell me how I am
Say what you want, I don't give a damn
Don't judge me, just respect who I am
Yet together we live on this planet we didn't choose how
And you and I, with our inadequate hearts
We get scared and we never see what we don't understand now
Well the world is ever-changing
You can live in your bubble today
Yeah everything is rearranging
Evolution's on the way
I just wanna be who I am
I don't need you to tell me how I am
Say what you want, I don't give a damn
Don't judge me, just respect who I am
I may not be what you want me to be
I just want you to love me for what I am
And it's alright, to be different from me
We believe in what we believe, so it's all the same
Well the world is ever-changing
You can live in your bubble today

And I'll show myself to you so you can see
Yes I'll show myself as truthful as can be
Working hard every day and night
Where they don't even know my name
Trying to keep all the kids alive
Everyday seems all the same
All I want is a day or two
Like a postcard from Hawaii
Sometimes I wonder what it's like to die
And then I heard somebody calling me
I saw an angel flying over me
I'm just standing in the falling rain
Getting wet from head to toe
I'm just waiting for that midnight train
'cuz it's time for me to go
I've got everything money can buy
All the things I need to keep me high
Everybody knows my face and name
But nobody knows who I am
All the money and the fame,
All the diamonds and the gold
Can I take it with me when it's time to fold
And then I heard somebody call my name
I saw an angel flying over me
I'm just standing in the falling rain
Getting wet from head to toe
I'm just waiting for that midnight train
'cuz it's time for me to go
Everybody all aboard
Everybody all aboard
Everybody all aboard right now
And then I heard somebody calling me
I saw an angel flying over me
I'm just standing in the falling rain
Getting wet from head to toe
I'm just waiting for that midnight train
'cuz it's time for me to go
Where they don't even know my name
Trying to keep all the kids alive
Everyday seems all the same
All I want is a day or two
Like a postcard from Hawaii
Sometimes I wonder what it's like to die
And then I heard somebody calling me
I saw an angel flying over me
I'm just standing in the falling rain
Getting wet from head to toe
I'm just waiting for that midnight train

But nobody knows who I am

Can I take it with me when it's time to fold
And then I heard somebody call my name
I saw an angel flying over me
I'm just standing in the falling rain
Getting wet from head to toe
I'm just waiting for that midnight train

Everybody all aboard
Everybody all aboard
Everybody all aboard right now
And then I heard somebody calling me
I saw an angel flying over me
I'm just standing in the falling rain
Getting wet from head to toe
I'm just waiting for that midnight train
'cuz it's time for me to go
Tell me the story of way back when
Human race lived on the face of the Earth
It’s so hard to believe all the stories
Flowers and trees and water so blue
Where did they go?
Did they really exist?
Once upon a time
Once upon a time
Once upon a time, long ago
Why did they love and why did they hate?
If they were so smart then why did they kill?
I’ve also heard that they knew how to fly
Even reached out to the stars above
Where did they go?
Did they really exist?
Once upon a time
Once upon a time
Once upon a time, long ago
I wish they could see what they did to their world
Their children, nowhere to be seen
Where are they now to pay for their crime
Why must we live in the dark
Tell me the story of way back when
Human race lived on the face of the Earth
Human race lived on the face of the Earth
It’s so hard to believe all the stories
Flowers and trees and water so blue
Where did they go?
Did they really exist?
Once upon a time
Once upon a time
Once upon a time, long ago
Why did they love and why did they hate?
If they were so smart then why did they kill?
I’ve also heard that they knew how to fly
Even reached out to the stars above
Where did they go?
Did they really exist?
Once upon a time
Once upon a time
Once upon a time, long ago
I wish they could see what they did to their world
Their children, nowhere to be seen
Where are they now to pay for their crime
Why must we live in the dark
Tell me the story of way back when
Human race lived on the face of the Earth
I don't know why I hurt you babe

Maybe something that you did
I don't know why you hurt me babe

Was it something that I said
I don't know why you hurt me babe
Was it something that I did
Don't say a word
Let me hear your heart
Don't say a word
Let me hear your heart
Don't say a word
Let me hear your heart
Don't say a word
Let me hear your heart
Beautiful flowers that make you cry
But they all eventually die
My favorite toy that I had as a boy
It always gave me so much joy
But now it's lost somewhere
I don't know where
Tell me how to keep love alive
What does it need to thrive
Tell me how to keep love alive
Our love is dying to survive
Do you remember when we first met
We were a Russian roulette
My heart was always there for you dear
My feelings were always sincere
I must have lost it
I don't know when
I won't care if I don't see it again
But now it's gone somewhere
I don't know where
And frankly I don't even care
Tell me how to keep love alive
What does it need to thrive
Tell me how to keep love alive
Our love is dying to survive
Tell me how to keep love alive
What does it need to thrive
Tell me how to keep love alive
Our love's about to die
But they all eventually die
My favorite toy that I had as a boy
It always gave me so much joy
But now it's lost somewhere
I don't know where
Tell me how to keep love alive
What does it need to thrive
Tell me how to keep love alive
Our love is dying to survive
Do you remember when we first met
We were a Russian roulette
My heart was always there for you dear
My feelings were always sincere
I must have lost it
I don't know when
I won't care if I don't see it again
But now it's gone somewhere
I don't know where
And frankly I don't even care
Tell me how to keep love alive
What does it need to thrive
Tell me how to keep love alive
Our love is dying to survive
Tell me how to keep love alive
What does it need to thrive
Tell me how to keep love alive
Our love's about to die
Life is short
So enjoy it while you can
Come alive
Don't just sit there in the can
Life is like a merry-go-round
It goes round and round
Life is like a merry-go-round
It got its ups and downs
Life is like a merry-go-round
It goes round and round
Life is like a merry-go-round
No matter what you say
You just cannot make me stay
Life is like a merry-go-round
It goes round and round
Life is like a merry-go-round
It got its ups and downs
Life is like a merry-go-round
It goes round and round
Life is like a merry-go-round
(repeat)
So enjoy it while you can
Come alive
Don't just sit there in the can
Life is like a merry-go-round
It goes round and round
Life is like a merry-go-round
It got its ups and downs
Life is like a merry-go-round
It goes round and round
Life is like a merry-go-round
No matter what you say
You just cannot make me stay
Life is like a merry-go-round
It goes round and round
Life is like a merry-go-round
It got its ups and downs
Life is like a merry-go-round
It goes round and round
Life is like a merry-go-round
