Azalea place 01:THE MATCH There's a room where she kept all her dolls They covered the floor and the walls And she talked to them there By the pool she would always attract All the guys who were out on their backs With her towel wrapped Now did she know That she caught all the eyes in town Watching her walking around She was the match that would strike up a light And the day that said hi to the night And she was bowling me down And I was praying As I struggled to stand on my feet I walked tall with her there on the street But as the earth spun around Hope was fading There was a room where I kept all my things Baseball caps fraternity rings And I played my guitar With her picture pinned up on the wall I stood there to see where I'd fall She was the match that would strike up a light And the day that said hi to the night And she was bowling me down And I was praying As I struggled to stand on my feet I walked tall with her there on the street But as the earth spun around Hope was fading In our rooms there are thoughts that divide All those feelings that harbored inside Am I sinking too deep with what I'm saying All the words they got caught in my head Had no order in how they were said Am I really a creep Hope is fading 02:IF I'D ONLY KNOW One of those times when the truth comes out And the only thing I was sure of now I doubt One of those moments when it all comes clear When I feel the emptiness now you're not here You made yourself a new life Do you ever think of me I can see you look so good I'd take you right now if I could I wouldn't be here missing you so bad If I'd only known just what I had Seemed to me things were going well And just how wrong I was it's hard to tell You didn't hear for far too long What you needed me to say and now you're gone Here I am a stranger In a world I have not known I can see you look so good I'd take you right now if I could I wouldn't be here missing you so bad If I'd only known just what I had Standing here watching you Wondering what I have to do Oh just to get close to you I look at her I see no pain She's learning how to smile again Oh puts my memory to shame You've found yourself a new life Do you ever think of me I can see you look so good I'd take you right now if I could Just to feel your touch I must be mad I wish that I had read the signs Maybe tried to change your mind I would't be here missing you so bad If I'd only known just what I had Just what I had 03:THE ONE IN THE GLASS When you get what you want In the struggle for you And the world makes you king for a day Just go to the mirror and look at yourself See what that person has to say Now some people call you a straight shooting man They think you're a wonderful guy But the one in the glass says you're only a fool If you won't look him straight in the eye For it isn't your lover, your father or mother Whose judgement upon you must pass No, the verdict that counts the most in your life Is the one staring back from the glass Now the one you should please never mind all the rest Who is with you clear to the end And you've passed the most dangerous difficult test If the one in the glass can be your friend You can fool the whole world down the pathways of years Get a pat on the back as you pass But your final reward will be heartaches and tears If you cheat on the one in the glass For it isn't your lover, your father or mother Whose judgement upon you must pass No, the verdict that counts most in your life Is the one staring back from the glass 04:DANCE FOR YOU She said take time to know me I'm not as bad as I seem They say a heart needs a second chance I wanna know what that means I said where do you come from and what do you do I'm retired now but baby I would dance for you Don't walk away just because I look a little run down I was lost on the wrong side of midnight In the wrong part of town I don't know what kept me going Or what pulled me through But I'm retired now and baby I would dance for you Seemed such a lucky girl Not a fear in this whole wide world Makes it hard to see How she's dying for some company Why don't you stay here with me I think we're two of a kind Yeah lately the way things've been going Honey I sure wouldn't mind But don't think you owe me a thing Whatever you do 05:NOT WELCOME ANY MORE You were the highlight Of my evenings You brought a smile To every face And now you're building Some kind of wall And I'm not welcome any more You were my week-ends And my working days You were my bright light My darkest night But now you're building Some kind of wall And I'm not welcome any more Reaching out to someone You go a long way such a long way When the argument is over Don't let the sorrow lead the way You were my sins And my reward You were my good My big mistake 'cause now you're building Some kind of wall And I'm not welcome any more Any more 06:LOSING YOU AGAIN I lay in the dark on your side of the bed And the smell of your body drives me out of my head I keep thinking any minute I feel you moving around Not a sound not a sound It don't make much sense try to figure it out Why you ran away or what it's all about It don't make a difference it won't change a thing Not a thing - Not a thing I can take you're not here right now And I'll know I'll get through this night somehow I can make myself believe that this is the end But I couldn't take losing you again Everywhere that I look it's you that I see But it's my memory playing tricks on me I see something move and I look around There's not a sound not a sound A heart should only have to die one time And baby you know where I lost mine (where I lost mine) And if you let me come back to you Baby I don't know what I do (what I'd do) I can take you're not here right now And I'll know I'll get through this night somehow I can make myself believe that this is the end But I couldn't take losing you again No I couldn't take losing you again 07:REVOLUTION OF LOVE There's a word (es muy hermoso) - it is very beautiful that I recall (como los rayos de sol) - like rays of sun It didn't mean (es la flor del cariño) - it is the flower of your affection that much at all (lo tiene todo) - it has everything It was the language (llena la vida) - it fills the life no one spoke (con dulces desengaños) - with sweet disappointments It was dying (todos lo sentimos) - we all feel it without hope (no debemos esconderlo) - we must not hide it No ones talking 'bout No ones talking 'bout And when it's spoken without passion Like something common something plain Oh everyday we abuse it So much harder to reclaim No one's talking 'bout (love) No one's talking 'bout (love) Then someone made a connection We should have known it from the start This word to us means nothing Unless spoken from the heart From the heart Bring back the revolution of love (es la flor de tu cariño) - it is the flower of your affection Bring back the revolution of love (el amor, el amor es muy hermoso) - the love, the love is very beautiful Bring back the revolution of love no one's talking 'bout Won't you talk about 08:BETTER THAN REAL If you're leaving me can I come to I don't know what I want but I want it with you I think I know just how you feel Still we've come this far You can't get better than real I know baby that's what we are Now who am I to judge you And tell you what you're supposed to do I think I know just how you feel Still we've come this far You can't get better than real I know baby that's what we are You say To be kissed by a fool is bad enough But to be fooled by a kiss that's even worse And every time my life is blessed There always seems to be a curse So If you're leaving me can I come to I don't know what I want but I want it with you I think I know just how you feel Still we've come this far You can't get better than real I know baby that's what we are That's what we are 09:IF WE STAY OR IF WE GO Every body wants to move It's such a human thing To start again try to win See what tomorrow brings People leaving distant lands Take one last look around Lovers part ask their hearts If somehow they're still bound Will they ever really know Are they sorry if they stay or if they go We worked so hard to make it here Just to leave it all But hey baby they worked on Rome for a thousand years Then they had to watch it fall The unknown's always tempting us With all we're gonna miss A better life a truer love And we just can't resist Will we ever really know Are we sorry if we stay or if we go It's all wrong - It's all right It's all dark - It's all light We're all thrown into this life We hurt for what we learn And when we tire we set the bridge on fire And laugh and watch it burn Will we ever really know Are we sorry if we stay or if we go Are we sorry if we stay or if we go 10:IN CONFIDENCE Won't you sit right down and talk to me Tell me all about yourself Tell me about these people in the pictures Up here on the shelf Is there someone special in your life Are you on your own again Well whatever you may say to me You can say in confidence Are you restless do you worry Have you found your peace at last Are you still close to your family Maybe they're something of the past Do you think about your school days Were they fun or filled with pain Well whatever you may say to me You can say in confidence In confidence We all need someone to talk to In confidence Tell me all about yourself Maybe you're running away from something Double crossed by so called friends Well whatever you may say to me You can say in confidence Are you following astrology Do you search for inner light Practicing a religion Or have your own view of what's right Have you tried most everything in life Or do you live in innocence Well whatever we may do tonight We can do in confidence In confidence If you think that you've said too much In confidence We all need some of that human touch Have you tried most everything in life Or do you live in innocence Well whatever we may do tonight We can do in confidence Yeah whatever we may do tonight We can do in confidence 11:FURTHER FROM THE TRUTH Messed around I'd had enough I Lost control I was all shook up Yesterday was on my mind When I came to you laid it on the line Baby I was pushed right to the edge What came over me I lost my head If you think what I said was aimed at you Well that couldn't be much further from the truth Now baby you know how good you are At bringing me back when things go too far You're the last I want to do this to But you're the first that I come to I'll admit that I was wrong I pushed too hard I came on too strong If you think what I said was aimed at you That couldn't be much further from the truth I confess there's one thing baby I am guilty of As much as I don't want to I hurt the one I love (one I love) I was pushed right to the edge What came over me I lost my head If you think what I said was aimed at you Yeah I'll admit that I was wrong I pushed too hard I came on too strong If you think what I said was aimed at you That couldn't be much further Couldn't be much further from the truth 12:LUCKY Some people live all their lives in the past No longer believe in a love that can last Some people never let others come close Even when they need them the most And some folks keep hiding behind a locked door Others find comfort in the hands of the lord Some people work all their lives to the bone Suddenly wake up alone Some folks get tired of turning their heads Looking at love from afar If you have someone lying there with you tonight I hope you know how lucky you are Now some people live on the edge till the end Finding the bottle the closest of friends They've lost that one love they thought was so true And the courage to find someone new And some people never quite learn how to give Never let go of their hearts If you have someone lying there with you tonight I hope you know how lucky you are Some people find out the hard way Just what it means Living alone in this world It ain't what it seems What it seems And we're all getting tired of turning our heads Looking at love from afar If you have someone lying there with you tonight I hope you know how lucky you are If you have someone lying there with you tonight I hope you know how lucky you are
