MTV Unplugged lyrics

some people walk the straight and narrow - some walk the rocky road
some get the silver spoon and some get the heavy load
there's a man in a paper box he smiles whenever we walk by
we just walk a little faster and say "there but for the grace of God go i"
but a little love - just a little love - a little love can change it all

i've been up and down this highway and i ain't seen a road sign yet

i've been down, i've been beat
i've been so tired that i could not speak
i've been so lost that i could not see
i wanted things that were outta reach
then i found you and you helped me through
and you showed me what to do
and that's why i'm coming back to you

like a star that guides a ship across the ocean
that's how your love can take me home and back to you

She gotta nasty reputation
and a talent for sin
she's a kinda trouble
I like to be in
I wanna be her lover
I wanna be her slave
She's a kinda woman
makes me wanna misbehave
she said I'll give ya what you want boy
let's make it understood
if you wanna be bad - you gotta be good

she says There'll be no lying
no foolin' around
there'll be no seven day weekends
no nights on the town

when you love someone - you'll do anything
you'll do all the crazy things that you can't explain
you'll shoot the moon - put out the sun
when you love someone

you'll deny the truth - believe a lie
there'll be times that you'll believe you could really fly
but your lonely nights - have just begun
when you love someone

when you love someone - you'll feel it deep inside

Star

What cha wanna be - when you grow up
What cha gonna do - when your time is up
What cha gonna say - when things go wrong
What cha wanna do - when you're on your own

There's a road - long and winding
The lights are blindin' - but it gets there
Don't give up - don't look back
There's a silver linin' - it's out there somewhere
Everybody wants an answer - everybody needs a friend

Put on your best dress darling
Can't you see the time is right
There will never be another tonight

If you got your motor runnin'
Then I got my engines on
Say the word and darlin' we'll be gone
Outside the world is waitin'
But we won't lose control
So come on now - let the good times roll

You gotta ride your broom right into my room
Kick off your shoes make yourself at home

Wanna be young the rest of my life,
Never say no, try anything twice.
When the angels come and ask me to fly,
Gonna be 18 til I die.

18 til I die, can't live forever, that's wishful thinkin',
Whoever said that must of been drinkin'.
Don't wanna grow up, I don't see why,
I couldn't care less if time flies by.

18 til I die,
Gonna be 18 til I die.
Ya, it sure feels good to be alive,

Waitin' here
For the workin' day to end,
Five o'clock and those walls
To school'll be closin'
You get home so down and worn out,
It's understood,
Yeah, it fits ya good,
Oh, fits ya good,
Yeah, it fits ya good.

Was a time
You were bringin' me down,
But I know
It's just the way you live your life,
But you don't know like I know, baby,
I did all that I could,
Now it fits ya good,

I wanna be young the rest of my life
never say no - try anything twice
til the angels come and ask me to fly
I'm gonna be 18 til I die - 18 til I die

can't live forever that's wishful thinkin'
who ever said that must of bin' drinkin'
don't wanna grow up I don't see why
I couldn't care less if time flies by

18 til I die - gonna be 18 til I die
it sure feels good to be alive
