and "i'd give my life for yours."

i know we are… we are the lucky ones.
i know we are… we are the lucky ones.
i know we are… we are the lucky ones, dear.

the first time we made love, i… i wasn't sober.
and you told me you loved me over and over!
how could i ever love another, when i miss you every day…

and you took my picture in all sorts of poses!
how could i ever get over you, when i'd give my life for yours.

i know we are... we are the lucky ones.
i know we are... we are the lucky ones.
i know we are... we are the lucky ones.

DEXTER FREEBISH

* Leaving Town *

Oh your reputation is so golden
your never lonely and your never home
I know you've been talking about leaving
you've lost all your feelings for this town.
Paint your nails and put your lipstick
you don't want to miss your ticket out.
Just because you graduate from school
so high in the gene pool that's point of view.

But when your broke and down and no one else is around
You'll come running back to this town and
I'll be there, yeah I'll be there.

Cause I remember how we shared time together
and how you used to say that the stars are forever.
And dreamed about how to make your live better by
leaving town, leaving town.

Pack your bags, your smokes in your pocket
Your wearing my locket around your neck
Take your drag and wait for the Greyhound
the world is your playground and you want to win.

But when your broke and down and no one else is around.
You'll come running back to this town and
I'll be there, yeah I'll be there.

Cause I remember how we shared time together and
how you used to say that the stars are forever.
And dreamed about how to make your life better by
leaving town, leaving town.

Nothing in life will ever come that easy.
Doesn't mean it has to be that hard.
I know you will find out who you are
But when your broke and down and no one else is around.
You'll come running back to this town and
I'll be there, yeah I'll be there.

Cause I remember how we shared time together
and how you used to say that the stars are forever.
And dreamed about how to make your life better by
leaving town, leaving town.
Yeah I remember how we shared time together and
how you used to say that the stars are forever.
And dreamed about how to make your life better by
leaving town, leaving town.
Your leaving town, yeah
 

EVITA MOTION PICTURE SOUNDTRACK

* Oh What a Circus *

(Che:)
Oh what a circus, oh what a show
Argentina has gone to town
Over the death of an actress called Eva Peron
We've all gone crazy, mourning all day and mourning all night
Falling over ourselves to get all of the misery right

Oh what an exit, that's how to go
When they're ringing your curtain down
Demand to be buried like Eva Peron
It's quite a sunset and good for the country in a roundabout way
We've made the front page of all the world's papers today

But who is this Santa Evita?
Why all this howling, hysterical sorrow?
What kind of goddess has lived among us?
How will we ever get by without her?

She had her moments, she had some style
The best show in town was the crowd
Outside the Casa Rosada crying, "Eva Peron"
But that's all gone now
As soon as the smoke from the funeral clears
We're all gonna see and how, she did nothing for years

(Crowd:)

Salve regina mater misericordiae
Vita dulcedo et spes nostra
Salve salve regina
Ad te clamamus exules filii Eva
Ad te suspiramus gementes et flentes
O clemens o pia

 Hail, oh queen, mother of mercy
Our life, sweetness, and hope
Hail, hail, oh queen
To you we cry, exiled sons of Eve
To you we sigh, mourning and weeping
Oh clement, oh loving one
 

(Che:)
You let down your people Evita, You were supposed to have been immortal
That's all they wanted, not much to ask for, but in the end you could not deliver

Sing you fools, but you got it wrong
Enjoy your prayers because you haven't got long
Your queen is dead, your king is through and she's not coming back to you

Show business kept us all alive since seventeen October 1945
But the star has gone, the glamour's worn thin
That's a pretty bad state for a state to be in

Instead of government we had a stage
Instead of ideas, a prima donna's rage
Instead of help we were given a crowd
She didn't say much, but she said it loud

Sing you fools, but you got it wrong
Enjoy your prayers because you haven't got long
Your queen is dead, your king is through, she's not coming back to you

(Crowd:)
Salve regina mater misericordiae
Vita dulcedo et spes nostra
Salve salve regina Peron
Ad te clamamus exules filii Eva
Ad te suspiramus gementes et flentes
O clemens o pia

(Eva:)
Don't cry for me Argentina
For I am ordinary, unimportant and undeserving of such attention
Unless we all are, I think we all are
So share my glory, so share my coffin
So share my glory, so share my coffin

(Che:)
It's our funeral too

GOO GOO DOLLS

* Name *

And even though the moment passed me by
I still can't turn away
'Cause all the dreams you never thought you'd lose
Got tossed along the way
And letters that you never meant to send
Get lost or thrown away
 

And now we're grown up orphans
That never knew their names
We don't belong to no one
That's a shame
But if you could hide beside me
Maybe for a while
And I won't tell no one your name
And I won't tell em' your name
 

And scars are souvenirs you never lose
The past is never far
Did you lose yourself somewhere out there
Did you get to be a star
And don't it make you sad to know that life
Is more than who we are

We grew up way too fast
And now there's nothing to believe
Reruns all become our history
A tired song keeps playing on a tired radio
And I won't tell no one your name
And I won't tell em' your name
I won't tell em' your name
Mmm, mmm, mmm,
I won't tell em' your name… Ow!
 

I think about you all the time
But I don't need the same
It's lonely where you are come back down,
And I won't tell em your name

GREENDAY

* Good Riddance *

Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road.
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to do.
So make the best of this test, and don't ask why.
It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time.

It's something unpredictable, but in the end is right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

So take the photographs, and still frames in your mind.
Hang it on a shelf of good health and good time.
Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial.
For what it's worth, it was worth all the while.
I hope you had the time of your life.

I hope you had the time of your life

SPICE GIRLS

* Good-Bye *

Listen little child
There will come a day
When you will be able
Able to say
Nevermind the pain
Or the aggravation
You know there's a better way for you and me to be

Look for the rainbow in every storm
Fly like an angel, heaven sent to me

(Chorus)
Goodbye my friend
I know you're gone, you said you're gone, but I can still feel you here
It's not the end
You gotta keep it strong before the pain turns into fear

So glad we made it
Time will never change it no no nooo
(No no no nooo)

Just a little girl
Big imagination
Never letting no-one take it away
Went into the world (into the world)
What a revelation
She found there's a better way
For you and me to be

Look for the rainbow in every storm
Find out for certain
Love's gonna be there for you
You'll always be someone's baby

Goodbye my friend
I know you're gone, you said you're gone, but I can still feel you here
It's not the end
You gotta keep it strong before the pain turns into fear

So glad we made it
Time will never change it no no noooo
(No no no nooo)
You know its time to say Goodbye
(No no no nooo)

(Instrumental solo)

The times when we would play about
The way we used to scream and shout
We never dreamt you'd go your own sweet way

Look for the rainbow in every storm
Find out for certain
Love's gonna be there for you
You'll always be someone's baby

Goodbye my friend
I know you're gone, you said you're gone, but I can still feel you here
It's not the end
You gotta keep it strong before the pain turns into fear

So glad we made it time will never never ever change it
(No no no nooo)
You know it's time to say goodbye
(No no no nooo)
And don't forget you can rely
(No no no nooo)

You know it's to say goodbye
And don't forget on me you can rely
(No no no nooo)
I will help you help you on your way
(No no no noooooo)
I will be with you every day
(no no no nooo)

(Fade to end)

THE VERVE PIPE

* Freshmen *
 

     When I was young I knew everything
     And she a punk who rarely ever took advice
     Now I'm guilt stricken, sobbing with my head on the floor
    Stop a baby's breath and a shoe full of rice

     I can't be held responsible
     'Cause she was touching her face
     I won't be held responsible
     She fell in love in the first place

     For the life of me I cannot remember
     What made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise
     For the life of me I cannot believe we'd ever die for these sins
     We were merely freshmen

     My best friend took a week's vacation to forget her
     His girl took a week's worth of Valium and slept
     Now he's guilt stricken sobbing with his head on the floor
     Thinks about her now and how he never really wept he says

     I can't be held responsible
     'Cause she was touching her face
     I won't be held responsible
     She fell in love in the first place

     For the life of me I cannot remember
     What made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise
     For the life of me I cannot believe we'd ever die for these sins
     We were merely freshmen

     We've tried to wash our hands of all of this
     We never talk of our lacking relationships
     And how we're guilt stricken sobbing with our heads on the floor
     We fell through the ice when we tried not to slip, we'd say

     I can't be held responsible
     'Cause she was touching her face
     I won't be held responsible
     She fell in love in the first place

     For the life of me I cannot remember
     What made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise
     For the life of me I cannot believe we'd ever die for these sins
     We were merely freshmen

     For the life of me I cannot remember
     What made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise
     For the life of me I cannot believe we'd ever die for these sins
     We were merely freshmen
     We were merely freshmen
     We were merely freshmen
