Yearning
Nobody knows where she came from
The tall-and-tanned-young-and-lovely girl
With a voice as light as air
Nobody knows but no one cares
'Cause everybody loves her
When she signs makes you dream a fairy tale
With a certain smile
She can make you feel so nice
Saying gently "Goodbye sadness"
Still will break your heart
Listen to her once
You'll feel lucky she was there
One note samba would never be the same
Where is she now the lovely girl
With the softest voices you ever heard
Asking---fly me to the moon
I know I'll find her in the sun of Copacabana
Meditating
Her lonely heart is nothing new
With a certain smile
She can make you feel so nice
Saying gently "Goodbye sadness"
Still will break your heart
Listen to her once
You'll feel lucky she was there
One note samba would never be the same
Never be the same
Listen to her once
You'll feel lucky she was there
One note samba would never be
Nobody knows where she came from
The tall-and-tanned-young-and-lovely girl
With a voice as light as air
Nobody knows but no one cares
'Cause everybody loves her
When she signs makes you dream a fairy tale
Thug Life (Extended Version)
I've been irreverent to the power controlling me
It's like a force coming down hard on me
When in a war with fate you learn to lose
Give me the sun the clouds are on the way
In on a guilt trip for a holiday
Coming apart the pieces all need glue
It's a shame the voice of reason faintly falls astray
Insane with all the seasons seeing shades of fall in May
Now all I can do is lay on the bed I've made
If I'm reborn or given another way
I would resolve and take what I'm given
Or I'll never find the forest for the trees
I'd only reach out for
