Definitely Maybe lyrics

I live my life in the city
There's no easy way out
The day's moving just too fast for me
I need some time in the sunshine
I've gotta slow it right down
The day's moving just too fast for me

I live my life for the stars that shine
People say it's just a waste of time
When they said I should feed my head
That to me was just a day in bed
I'll take my car and drive real far

I'd like to be somebody else and not know where I've been
I'd like to build myself a house out of plasticine
Shake along with me
I've been driving in my car with my friend Mr. Soft
Mr. Clean and Mr. Ben are living in my loft
Shake along with me!

I'm sorry but I just don't know I know
I said I told you so
But when you're happy and you're feeling fine
Then you'll know it's the right time

Maybe I don't really want to know
How your garden grows
I just want to fly
Lately did you ever feel the pain
In the morning rain
As it soaks it to the bone

Maybe I just want to fly
I want to live I don't want to die
Maybe I just want to breath
Maybe I just don't believe
Maybe you're the same as me
We see things they'll never see
You and I are gonna live forever

Hey you! Up in the sky
Learning to fly
Tell me how high
Do you think you'll go
Before you start falling
Hey you! Up in a tree
You wanna be me
But that couldn't be
Cos the people here they don't hear you calling
How does it feel
When you're inside me

Hey you! wearing the crown
Making no sound
I heard you feel down
Well that's too bad
Welcome to my world
Hey you! Stealing the light

There we were now here we are
All this confusion nothings the same to me
There we were now here we are
All this confusion nothings the same to me

But I can't tell you the way I feel
Because the way I feel is oh so! new to me
No I can't sell you the way I feel
Because the way I feel is oh so! new to me

What I heard is not what I hear
I can see the signs but they're not very clear

I need to be myself
I can't be no one else
I'm feeling supersonic
Give me gin and tonic
You can have it all but how much do you want it
You make me laugh
Give me your autograph
Can I ride with you in your BMW
You can sail with me in my yellow submarine

You need to find out
'Cos no one's gonna tell you what I'm on about
You need to find a way for what you want to say
But before tomorrow

What was that sound ringing around your brain
Today was just a blur, you gotta head like a ghost train
What was that sound ringing around your brain
You're here on your own who you gonna find to blame

You're the outcast - you're the underclass
But you don't care - because you're living fast

You're the un-invited guest who stays 'till the end
I know you've got a problem that the devil sends

Is it my imagination
Or have I finally found something worth living for?
I was looking for some action
But all I found was cigarettes and alcohol

You could wait for a lifetime
To spend your days in the sunshine
You might as well do the white line
Cos when it comes on top . . .

You gotta make it happen!

Is it worth the aggravation

What a life it would be
If you would come to mine for tea
I'll pick you up at half past three
And we'll have lasagne
I'll treat you like a Queen
I'll give you strawberries and cream
And then your friends will all go green
For my lasagne

These could be the best days of our lives
But I don't think we've been living very wise
Oh no! no!

What a life it would be
If you would come to mine for tea

Slide away - and give it all you've got
My today - fell in from the top
I dream of you - and all the things you say
I wonder where you are now

Hold me down - all the world's asleep
I need you now - you've knocked me off my feet
I dream of you - we talk of growing old
But you said please don't !

Slide in baby - together we'll fly
I've tried praying - and I know just what you're saying to me

There's no need for you to say you're sorry
Goodbye I'm going home
I don't care no more so don't you worry
Goodbye I'm going home

I hate the way that even though you
Know you're wrong you say you're right
I hate the books you read and all your friends
Your music's shite it keeps me up all night

There's no need for you to say you're sorry
Goodbye I'm going home

Sing a sad song
In a lonely place
Try to put a word in for me
It's been so long
Since I found this place
You better put in two or three
We as people, are just walking 'round
Our heads are firmly fixed in the ground
What we don't see
Well it can't be real
What we don't touch we cannot feel

Where we're living in this town
The sun is coming up and it's going down

Mesat ngapung luhur jauh di awang-awang

Meberkeun jangjangna bangun taya karingrang

Dipika gimir dipika serab ku sasama
Taya karentan kasiuen leber wawanena

Chorus:

Manuk dadali, manuk panggagahna

Perlambang sakti ISRAELna jaya

Manuk dadali, pangkakoncarana

Resep ngahiji rukun sakabehna

Hirup sauyunan tara pahiri-hiri

Silih pikanyaah teu inggis belapati

The paper boy is working before he goes
Lying to the teacher he knows he knows
He didn't and he should've
Brought his lines in yesterday
Ernie bangs the sound and the day begins
The letterbox is open and your cash falls in
I'll meet you at the office
Just before the staff clock in

Round are way the birds are singing
Round are way the sun shines bright

Won't you take me
Won't you take me to the edge of night and make me
Won't you make me walk into the light
And there'll be no eyes
No eyes that see such beauty would lose their sight
And there'll be no lies
No lies that you could tell me to make things right

Cos I gave all my money to people and things
And the price I'm still playing for the shit that it brings

I hear my heart beatin faster
I feel it in my bones
I want it now 'cos I have ta
But why, no-one knows
I'm like the angel on the a train
I'm like the angel of the A train
My eyes are diamond white
From the cradle till your insane
For life you have to fight
But no-one knows why there's a spirit in the sky, there's escape for no-one

I heard a whisper on my radio
But I paid no mind
I just sat back and I let it go
To catch the rain from a lonely waterfall
But I might beware
'Cos they could drown me like a doll
They got me running in and out of time
I feel like a Bona Fide
Keeper of the right and wrong
And I've known all along, but let me just make it clear
Everybody's gone for quick, sure fire solution

Spend you days just walking and shopping
Depending on how much you're luck is in
Spend the night-life table-hopping
And trying to keep that bag of bones in trim
I don't mind not being immortal
'Cos it ain't all that as far as I can tell
I don't mind not going to heaven
As long as they've got cigarettes
As long as they've got cigarettes in hell

maybe, I don't really wanna know
How your garden grows
Coz I just wanna fly
Lately did you ever feel the pain
in the morning rain
as it soaks it to the bone

and maybe I just wanna fly
wanna live , I don't wanna die
maybe I just wanna breathe
maybe I just don't believe
maybe you're the same as me
we see things they'll never see
you and I are gonna live forever

I need to be myself
I can't be no one else
I'm feeling supersonic
Give me gin and tonic
You can have it all but how much do you want it?
You make me laugh
Give me your autograph
Can I ride with you in your B.M.W ?
You can sail with me in my yellow submarine

You need to find out
'Cos no one's gonna tell you what I'm on about
You need to find a way for what you want to say

Mesat ngapung luhur jauh di awang-awang
Meberkeun jangjangna bangun taya karingrang
Dipika gimir dipika serab ku sasama
Taya karentan kasiuen leber wawanena

Chorus:
Manuk dadali, manuk panggagahna
Perlambang sakti israelna jaya
Manuk dadali, pangkakoncarana
Resep ngahiji rukun sakabehna

Hirup sauyunan tara pahiri-hiri
Silih pikanyaah teu inggis belapati
Manuk dadali ngandung siloka sinatria

Just when it falls apart
And when it's time to start
Will you sit down here for another day
And when it's time to be
All the things that we
Are wishing away for another day
Cos in my soul we know where we're goin
We're goin where the grass is green, the air is clean and the good times are growin'
So take me away
Just for today
Cos I'm sat here on my own
I'd like to be
Under the sea

I heard a whisper on my radio
But I paid no mind
I just sat back and let it go
To catch the rain from a lonely waterfall
But I might beware
'Cos they could drown me like a doll

They got me running in and out of time
I feel like a Bona Fide
Keeper of the right and wrong
And I've known all along but let me just make it clear

Everybody's gone for a quick sure fire solution

Breaks like glass
But not in your hand
They'll shoot you down
Right where you stand
And it don't care for what you wear
Or which way you might sway
It calls you up
But not on the phone
And they will drag you from your throne

And you may laugh while you sit there
Sipping your champagne
And they all laugh at your despair
Sniffing your cocaine

The people will know it's not the time to change it
It's just for now but not for good
It's my feelings that I think you're draining
Take them now if you think you should
You want something for nothing
The higher that you climb the longer you fall
Maybe your time is coming
Will you have to climb when you find a wall?
Is it time to doubt?, is it time to wait?

If you gave me a fresh carnation
I would only crush itâs tender petals
With me youâll have no escape
And at the same time thereâll be nowhere to settle
I trample down all life in my wake
I eat it up and take the cake
I just avert my eyes to the pain
Of someoneâs loss helping my gain

If you gave me a dream for my pocket
Youâd be plugging in the wrong socket

Wake up! there's a new day dawning
think I'll take a walk for a while
I need shades cos the sun is shining
And I can see for miles and miles
I can feel the earth beneath me
I lie down we are as one
And they look but they cannot find me
Coz I'm off heading for the sun

But it's getting colder
I feel a chill in the air
There's a change in the weather
Here it comes again

So you think you got an evil mind
Well I'll tell you honey
And I don't know why
I don't know why
So you think my singin's' out of time
Well it makes me money
And I don't know why
I don't know why
Anymore, oh no

So cum on feel the noize
Girls rock your boys
We'll get wild, wild, wild
We'll get wild, wild, wild
Cum on feel the noize
Girls rock your boys
We'll get wild, wild, wild

I spend my time sittin' on the fence with a mate of mine
I'm tryin to write the line of a story
We belive that everything said is a waste of time
Cos life is well tried and it bores me
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah

In my well paid opinion
These things they really don't matter
But from my crystal gazing eye
There shines a light, like dynamite

Sittin' on a throne will give a bad back to you

I, I wish I could swim
Just like a dolphin, like dolphins can swim
And nothing, is gonna keep us together
And we can beat them, for ever and ever
Cos we can be Heroes, just for one day

I, I will be king
And you, you're gonna be my queen
Yeah but nothing, is gonna drive us away
Cos we can be Heroes, just for one day
And we're gonna be ourselves, just for one day

I'm tired of my life but my heads alright
I got the fever off a man I know
I can feel it comin' in the air tonight
And I know, I know, I know
Swear I heard a song on the radio
My heart is laughing back at me
I can see it comin' but I just don't know
If it's gon' , it's gon, it's gonna let me be

As I saw, on the breeze
I can see the sons of those who came before me

Turn off your mind, relax
And float down stream
It is not dying
It is not dying

Lay down all thought
Surrender to the void
It is shining
It is shining

That you may see
The meaning of within
It is being
It is being

That love is all
And love is everyone
It is knowing
It is knowing

That ignorance and hate
May mourn the dead
It is believing
It is believing

But listen to the
Color of your dreams

I'm locked up in chains
For the rest of my life
There's no one else to blame but me
The start of the day's
Just the end of the night
I'm feeling like I'm lost at sea
Sometimes is just seems so simple
I'm feeling like I'm down on my knees
Sometimes like a man in the middle
I don't know my own mind
Won't you let me be

Coz I can find you
Living in my world
Dragging me round

When I wake up early in the morning,
Lift my head, I'm still yawning.
When I'm in the middle of a dream,
Stay in bed, float upstream
(Float upstream).

Please don't wake me,
no, don't shake me,
Leave me where I am, I'm only sleeping.

Everybody seems to think I'm lazy,
I don't mind, I think they're crazy,
Running everywhere at such a speed,
Till they find there's no need

well you can say what you want
but you won't get a thing from me
and if you don't understand
that's it's not in your hands you need

let there be love
let there be love
let there be love
let there be love

but you can say what you feel
and it might never steal from me
and then you must understand
that it's all in your hands what you need

let there be love
let there be love

It's better people love one another
'Cause livin' your life can be tough
It's better people speak to each other
Your shame is not enough
If everybody came alive
And stayed alive
And lived their lives instead, yeah
So come outside
And feel the light
It's cold inside
But it's lonely in your bed
In your bed

And though we might be
But what you heard before

There's nothing you can say
I know exactly where I'm going
You said there was no way
but I could go without you knowing

Just you wait and see
I will get what I have come for
so don't try telling me
I could've given you a lot more
Just you wait and see
I will get what I have come for
so don't try to tell me
âcos I will show you all the way

I used to live my life in vain
Until today itâs been the same
Iâve gone away to diappear
My life with you was just too dear
A better life is all I need
To free me from this naughty league
Iâve been and gone
I wonât be back
Iâll live my life without all that

With my own eyes
I realise
It was time to say goodnight
I was never really sure
But now I know Iâm right

And how does it feel like to wake up in ther sun?
And how does it feel like to shine on everyone?
How does it feel like to let forever be?
And how does it feel like to spend a little lifetime sitting in the gutter?
Scream my symphony
(screen my sin for me)?
How does it feel like to sail in on the breeze?
And how does it feel like to spend a little lifetime sitting in the gutter?

Don't believe in Jesus
don't believe in Jah
don't believe in the wars we fight
just to prove how real we are

I believe in lovers
I believe in friends
I believe in heaven here on earth
'till the, the beginning ends

love me and leave me
love me and leave me
love me and leave me
leave me to love

don't you ever tell me it came from above
just love me and leave me
leave me to love

Are you hanging up your stockings on a wall ?

It's the time that every centre has a ball

Does he ride a red nosed reindeer ?

Do a 'ton up' on a sleigh

Do the fairies keep him sober for a day ?

So here it is merry Christmas

Everybody's having fun

Look to the future now

It's only just begun

Are you waiting for your family to arrive ?

I'm free to be whatever I
whatever I choose and I'll sing the blues if I want
I'm free to say whatever I
whatever I like if it's wrong or right it's alright
always seems to me
you only see what people want you to see
how long's it gonna be
before we get on the bus and cause no fuss
get a grip on yourself it don't cost much

free to be whatever you
whatever you say if it comes my way it's alright

sometimes i listen to what people try to say
then when i tune in
i think, no that's not the way
sometimes i listen to what people have to say
then when i tune in
i think, no that's not the way

it must be the music
it sounds so confusing
it must be the music
thats opening my eyes
it must be the music
sounds so confusing
it must be the music
when people realise

(original version by The Who 1965)

People try to put us down
(talkin' 'bout my generation)
Just because we get around
(talkin' 'bout my generation)
Things they do look awful cold
(talkin' 'bout my generation)
I hope I die before get old
(talkin' 'bout my generation)

This is my generation
This is my generation, baby

Why don't you all fade away
(talkin' 'bout my generation)

A feeling sleeping deep inside
You hide it so I'll never find
Today I think I'll waste my time
You never notice, you are blind
The dream I have can never be
To photograph what the eye can't see
I fight to live another day
I live to find out, come what may

Faith in the lord is something I can never have
Faith in my sister is gonna set me free

I wanna get high, but I never could take the pain
'Cos it would blow away my soul like a hurricane
Like a one man band clapping in the pouring rain
If I know where I'm going, I don't know from where I came
Where we gonna be in summertime?
And are we gonna see the heavens shine
Like diamonds in the sky?

As soon as they come
The feelings they go
All alone, on a one way road

See the Sun

Trying to press, what you might be feeling,
Why suppress what you might be needing.

You missed the moon on Monday morning,
you were lying in your sin.
You missed the moon on Monday morning,
because you don't mean anything to anyone, anymore.

Why confess, well you wouldn't need to,
because on your desk, theres more to be seen to.

By the time just keep on ticking,

Setting Sun

Your the devil in me, I brought in from the cold
You said your body was young but your mind was very old
Your comin' on strong and I like the way
The visions we had are fading away
You're part of the life I never had
I'll tell you now it's just too bad
I'll tell you now it's just too bad
I'll tell you now it's just too bad
I'll tell you now it's just too bad

hope we found our sweet release
i hope filled that hole within your soul
i hope at last we get some peace
i hope the light shines on we as one

there'll never be enough to love
the river's deep and the road is long
and every which way we turn
it seems insane
but it makes me feel alive

shout it out loud that i'm alive
shout it out loud when i'm alive
shout it out loud that i'm alive

They took my faith
they put it in a headlock and
they sealed my fate
somewhere inside the world
in which they live
because I failed
they constantly ignore me and
they told me I lost my mind but
i believe that I rule the world

I'm singing out my revolution song
like nothing else matters
and you can pitch your gold against my soul
but I bet you get shattered

Here lives a pocket full of lives with no future
Take it for what it is, itâs only drunken lies
You should open up your mind, look to the future
You could be waiting for the ship that sails you home
Iâm going home

What would you give me for the songs that Iâve been singing
How could you ever say that youâve got more than me?

Everywhere I hear the sound of marching feet, boy
Cause summer's here and the time is right for fighting in the street, boy
But what can a poor boy do
'cept to sing for a rock 'n' roll band
Cause in sleepy London town
There's just no place for a street fighting man
No!

Hey! Think the time is right for a palace revolution
But where I live the game to play is compromise solution

Here I stand head in hand
Turn my face to the wall
If she's gone I can't go on
Feelin' two-foot small
Everywhere people stare
Each and every day
I can see them laugh at me
And I hear them say

Hey you've got to hide your love away
Hey you've got to hide your love away

How could I even try
I can never win
Hearing them, seeing them
In the state I'm in

How could she say to me

Sing a sad song
In a lonely place
Try to put a word in for me
It's been so long
Since I found this place
You better put in two or three
We as people, are just walking 'round
Our heads are firmly fixed in the ground
What we don't see
Well it can't be real
What we don't touch we cannot feel

Where we're living in this town
The sun is coming up and it's going down
