You are to me as sweet as apple pie You're next to me, we'll reach the highest high Oh, can't you see it could be ecstasy You and I, you and I, you and I, you and I
Turn down the light, we'll turn ‘em way down low No need to fight, we'll take it nice and slow Baby, tonight, we gotta let go Do you know, do you know, do you know, do you know
Stay the night You're a woman, I'm a man Stay the night We can do what things you planned
Stay the night Stay the night Stay the night
We're all alone, there's only you and I Pull out the phone, we'll kiss the world goodbye We'll stay at home and make it on our own You and I, you and I, you and I, you and I
Turn down the light, we'll turn ‘em way down low No need to fight, we'll take it nice and slow Baby, tonight, oh, we gotta let go Do you know, do you know, do you know, do you know
Stay the night You're a woman, I'm a man Stay the night We can do what things you planned
Stay the night Stay the night Stay the night
Stay Stay the night Stay Stay the night
Stay Stay the night Stay Stay the night (Stay the night, stay the night)

No, woman, no cry;
No, woman, no cry;
No, woman, no cry;
No, woman, no cry.
Said - said - said: I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown,
Oba - obaserving the 'ypocrites
As they would mingle with the good people we meet.
Good friends we have, oh, good friends we've lost
Along the way.
In this great future, you can't forget your past;
So dry your tears, I seh.
No, woman, no cry;
No, woman, no cry.
'Ere, little darlin', don't shed no tears:
No, woman, no cry.
Said - said - said: I remember when-a we used to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown.
And then Georgie would make the fire lights,
As it was logwood burnin' through the nights.
Then we would cook cornmeal porridge,
Of which I'll share with you;
My feet is my only carriage,
So I've got to push on through.
But while I'm gone, I mean:
Everything's gonna be all right!
Everything's gonna be all right!
Everything's gonna be all right!
Everything's gonna be all right!
I said, everything's gonna be all right-a!
Everything's gonna be all right!
Everything's gonna be all right, now!
Everything's gonna be all right!
So, woman, no cry;
No - no, woman - woman, no cry.
Woman, little sister, don't shed no tears;
No, woman, no cry.
I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown.
And then Georgie would make the fire lights,
As it was logwood burnin' through the nights.
Then we would cook cornmeal porridge,
Of which I'll share with you;
My feet is my only carriage,
So I've got to push on through.
But while I'm gone:
No, woman, no cry;
No, woman, no cry.
Woman, little darlin', say don't shed no tears;
No, woman, no cry.
Eh! (Little darlin', don't shed no tears!
No, woman, no cry.
Little sister, don't shed no tears!
No, woman, no cry.)

Me and all my friends
We're all misunderstood
They say we stand for nothing
And there's no way we ever could
Now we see everything that's going wrong
With the world and those who lead it
We just feel like we don't have the means
To rise above and beat it
So we keep waiting
(Waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting
(Waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
It's hard to beat the system
When we're standing at a distance
So we keep waiting
(Waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
Now if we had the power
To bring our neighbors home from war
They would have never missed a Christmas
No more ribbons on their door
And when you trust your television
What you get is what you got
'Cause when they own the information
Oh, they can bend it all they want
That's why we're waiting
(Waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting
(Waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
It's not that we don't care
We just know that the fight ain't fair
So we keep on waiting
(Waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
And we're still waiting
(Waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting
(Waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
One day our generation
Is gonna rule the population
So we keep on waiting
(Waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
No, we keep on waiting
(Waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting
(Waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
Waiting on the world to change
Waiting on the world to change
Waiting on the world to change
In Your Eyes Lyrics love I get so lost, sometimes
days pass and this emptiness fills my heart
when I want to run away
I drive off in my car
but whichever way I go
I come back to the place you are
all my instincts, they return
and the grand facade, so soon will burn
without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside
in your eyes
the light the heat
in your eyes
I am complete
in your eyes
I see the doorway to a thousand churches
in your eyes
the resolution of all the fruitless searches
in your eyes
I see the light and the heat
in your eyes
oh, I want to be that complete
I want to touch the light
the heat I see in your eyes
love, I don't like to see so much pain
so much wasted and this moment keeps slipping away
I get so tired of working so hard for our survival
I look to the time with you to keep me awake and alive
and all my instincts, they return
and the grand facade, so soon will burn
without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside
in your eyes
the light the heat
in your eyes
I am complete
in your eyes
I see the doorway to a thousand churches
in your eyes
the resolution of all the fruitless searches
in your eyes
I see the light and the heat
in your eyes
oh, I want to be that complete
I want to touch the light,
the heat I see in your eyes
in your eyes in your eyes
in your eyes in your eyes
in your eyes in your eyes

War (No More Trouble) lyrics Until the philosophy which holds one race Superior and another inferior Is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned Everywhere is war, me say war That until there is no longer first class And second class citizens of any nation Until the colour of a man's skin Is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes Me say war That until the basic human rights are equally Guaranteed to all, without regard to race Dis a war That until that day The dream of lasting peace, world citizenship Rule of international morality Will remain in but a fleeting illusion To be pursued, but never attained Now everywhere is war, war And until the ignoble and unhappy regimes That hold our brothers in Angola, in Mozambique, South Africa sub-human bondage Have been toppled, utterly destroyed Well, everywhere is war, me say war War in the east, war in the west War up north, war down south War, war, rumours of war And until that day, the African continent Will not know peace, we Africans will fight We find it necessary and we know we shall win As we are confident in the victory Of good over evil, good over evil, good over evil Good over evil, good over evil, good over evil

Very superstitious, writing's on the wall, Very superstitious, ladders bout' to fall, Thirteen month old baby, broke the lookin' glass Seven years of bad luck, the good things in your past.
oo When you believe in things that you don't understand, Then you suffer, Superstition ain't the way
Very superstitious, wash your face and hands, Rid me of the problem, do all that you can, Keep me in a daydream, keep me goin' strong, You don't wanna save me, sad is my song.
When you believe in things that you don't understand, Then you suffer, Superstition ain't the way, yeh, yeh.
Very superstitious, nothin' more to say, Very superstitious, the devil's on his way, Thirteen month old baby, broke the lookin' glass, Seven years of bad luck, good things in your past
When you believe in things that you don't understand, Then you suffer, Superstition ain't the way, no, no, no
First of all I’d like to say good evening And we’re so pleased that So many of you could come out and share In all the love and all the happiness we have in store for you We want you to have a real good time ‘Cause that’s just what we have in mind Is that alright with you Now, this is a tune that I composed And it’s called Tonight is the night That you make me a woman Now I never intended recording this song It was a personal poem This is until the day that my producer Happened to thumb through the pages of my notebook He came across the words and he said “We got to somethin’ with these words It’s happening every day And people wanna hear about it, Betty” You see, it’s the story of a young girl Making love for the very first time Now when I finally got a melody I took it home and I-I played it for my mother Now I got to tell you a little bit about my mother You see I come from one of those pretty large families And I’m the baby of the family And you know you never grow up to your mother I’ll never forget the way she looked at me when I played it for her She said, “Uh, I like the music You know, baby, the melody it’s really nice But I know you’re not gonna sing that song” But we eased it right on by, yes, we did And it became one of my biggest records too So I want you to do this for me if you will Everybody think back to your very first time Now I’ll give you a little while longer ‘Cause I know some of you Have to think back a little further than others Come on now, I want you to play catch-up ‘Cause I don’t want you waitin’ till I get to the end of my song Sayin’, “Oh, yeah, now I remember” Now whether it was good Or you just smilin’ it was good Or on the other hand if it was not so good Here’s my story
