Cos’è successo?
Sei scappata da una vita che hai vissuto,
da una storia che hai bruciato e ora fingi che non c’è…
Cos’è successo?
Sei cambiata, non sei più la stessa cosa,
o sei ancora quella che è cresciuta insieme a me?
Cos’è successo?
Sei scappata e con te anche la mia vita: l’ho cercata,
l’ho cercata e l’ho trovata solo in te!
Ma c’è qualcosa di grande tra di noi che non potrai cambiare mai,
nemmeno se lo vuoi!
Ma c’è qualcosa di grande tra di noi che non puoi scordare mai,
nemmeno se lo vuoi!
Cos’è successo?
Sei caduta, sei caduta troppo in basso e ora provi a risalire,
ma è la fatica che non vuoi!
Cos’è successo?
La fortuna non ti ha mai abbandonata,
ma ricordati il destino non ti guarda in faccia mai!
E c’è qualcosa di grande tra di noi che non potrai cambiare mai,
nemmeno se lo vuoi!
Ma c’è qualcosa di grande tra di noi che non puoi scordare mai,
nemmeno se lo vuoi!
Adesso cosa fai?
Che cosa inventerai,
per toglierti dai guai… dove andrai?
Adesso cosa fai?
Che cosa inventerai?
Puoi fingere di più di come fai?
Cos’è successo?
La tua luce, la tua luce si è oscurata,
con qualcuno che conosco e ti ha portata via da me.
Cos’è successo?
La tua stella, la tua stella si è eclissata
e ora provaci dal buio a brillare senza me!
Ma c’è qualcosa di grande tra di noi,
che non potrai cambiare mai
nemmeno se lo vuoi!
Ma c’è qualcosa di grande tra di noi,
che non puoi scordare mai
nemmeno se lo vuoi!
Ma c’è qualcosa di grande tra di noi, che non puoi scordare mai nemmeno se lo vuoi!
E c’è qualcosa di grande tra di noi, che non potrai cambiare mai nemmeno se lo vuoi!
…se lo vuoi
…se lo vuoi.

Io voglio per me le tue carezze
sì io t’amo più della mia vita!
Ritornerò in ginocchio da te
l’altra non è non è niente per me
ora lo so ho sbagliato con te
ritornerò in ginocchio da te…
e bacerò le tue mani amor
negli occhi tuoi
che hanno pianto per me
io cercherò il perdono da te
e bacerò le tue mani amor.
Io voglio per me le tue carezze
sì io t’amo più della mia vita
Io cercherò il perdono da te
e bacerò le tue mani amor
ritornerò in ginocchio da te
l’altra non è non è niente per me
ora lo so ho sbagliato con te
ritornerò in ginocchio da te
sì io t’amo più della mia vita
io voglio per me le tue carezze
oh sì io t’amo più della mia vita

It was a cold and wet December day
When we touched the ground at JFK
Snow was melting on the ground
On BLS I heard the sound
Of an angel
New York, like a Christmas tree
Tonight this city belongs to me
Angel

Soul love…this love won’t let me go
So long…Angel of Harlem

Birdland on fifty-three
The street sounds like a symphony
We got John Coltrane and a love supreme
Miles says she’s got to be an angel
Lady Day got diamond eyes
She sees the truth behind the lies
Angel

Soul love…this love won’t let me go
So long…Angel of Harlem
Angel of Harlem

She says it’s heart…heart and soul…
Yeah yeah…(yeah)
Yeah yeah…(right now)

Blue light on the avenue
God knows they got to you
An empty glass, the lady sings
Eyes swollen like a bee sting
Blinded you lost your way
Through the side streets and the alleyway
Like a star exploding in the night
Falling to the city in broad daylight
An angel in Devil’s shoes
Salvation in the blues
You never looked like an angel
Yeah yeah…Angel of Harlem

I walk along the city streets you used to walk along with me,
And every step I take recalls how much in love we used to be.
Oh, how can I forget you?
When there is always something there to remind me
Always something there to remind me
I was born to love you, and I will never be free
You’ll always be a part of me, whoa oh whoa

When shadows fall, I passed a small cafe where we would dance at night
And I can’t help recalling how it felt to kiss and hold you tight
Oh, how can I forget you?
When there is always something there to remind me
Always something there to remind me
I was born to love you, and I will never be free
You’ll always be a part of me, whoa oh whoa, whoa oh whoa

If you should find you miss the sweet and tender love we used to share
Just come back to the places where we used to go, and I’ll be there
Oh, how can I forget you?
When there is always something there to remind me
Always something there to remind me
I was born to love you, and I will never be free
You’ll always be a part of me, whoa oh whoa

She had something to confess to
But you don’t have the time so
Look the other way
You will wait until it’s over
To reveal what you’d never shown her
Too little much too late

Too long trying to resist it
You’ve just gone and missed it
It’s escaped your world

Can you see that I am needing
Begging for so much more
Than you could ever give
And I don’t want you to adore me
Don’t want you to ignore me
When it pleases you
And I’ll do it on my own

I have played in every toilet
But you still want to spoil it
To prove I’ve made a big mistake
Too long trying to resist it
You’ve just gone and missed it
It’s escaped your world

Can you see that I am needing
Begging for so much more
Than you could ever give
And I don’t want you to adore me
Don’t want you to ignore me
When it pleases you
And I’ll do it on my own
I’ll do it on my own

So while I’m turning in my sheets
And once again I cannot sleep
Walk out the door and up the street
Look at the stars beneath my feet
Remember rights that I did wrong
So here I go

Hello, hello

There is no place I cannot go
My mind is muddy but
My heart is heavy does it show
I lose the track that loses me
So here I go

And so I sent some men to fight
And one came back at dead of night
Said he’d seen my enemy
Said he looked just like me
So I set out to cut myself
And here I go

I’m not calling for a second chance
I’m screaming at the top of my voice
Give me reason, but don’t give me choice
Cause I’ll just make the same mistake again

And maybe someday we will meet
And maybe talk and not just speak
Don’t buy the promises cause
There are no promises I keep
And my reflection troubles me
So here I go

I’m not calling for a second chance
I’m screaming at the top of my voice
Give me reason, but don’t give me choice
Cause I’ll just make the same mistake

So while I’m turning in my sheets
…
And once again I cannot sleep
…
Walk out the door and up the street
…
Look at the stars
…
Look at the stars falling down
…
And I wonder where
…
Did I go wrong?

Do I attract you?
Do I repulse you with my queasy smile?
Am I too dirty?
Am I too flirty?
Do I like what you like?

I could be wholesome
I could be loathsome
I guess I’m a little bit shy
Why don’t you like me?
Why don’t you like me without making me try?

I try to be like Grace Kelly
But all her looks were too sad
So I try a little Freddie
I’ve gone identity mad!

I could be brown
I could be blue
I could be violet sky
I could be hurtful
I could be purple
I could be anything you like
Gotta be green
Gotta be mean
Gotta be everything more
Why don’t you like me?
Why don’t you like me?
Why don’t you walk out the door!

How can I help it
How can I help it
How can I help what you think?
Hello my baby
Hello my baby
Putting my life on the brink
Why don’t you like me
Why don’t you like me
Why don’t you like yourself?
Should I bend over?
Should I look older just to be put on your shelf?

I try to be like Grace Kelly
But all her looks were too sad
So I try a little Freddie
I’ve gone identity mad!

I could be brown
I could be blue
I could be violet sky
I could be hurtful
I could be purple
I could be anything you like
Gotta be green
Gotta be mean
Gotta be everything more
Why don’t you like me?
Why don’t you like me?
Walk out the door!

Say what you want to satisfy yourself
But you only want what everybody else says you should want

I could be brown
I could be blue
I could be violet sky
I could be hurtful
I could be purple
I could be anything you like
Gotta be green
Gotta be mean
Gotta be everything more
Why don’t you like me?
Why don’t you like me?
Walk out the door!

Let the raining teardrops rain down on me tonight 
I think making up, faking up stories is alright
tick tock stop the clock, fiction is my thing
my attitude is always I and me and mine

oh I’m so clever
until my paranoia kicks in then I’ll accuse her
of doing all the worst things i do best
its funny how me, fucking her about,
has got me in this fucking mess

liar liar pants on fire
lies alibis lies more alibis
from the truth, I admit I’m more than shy
ain’t the the times we are living in
everybody’s doing it so why cant I?

I tally up tonight’s strangers
and stragglers that I’ve kissed
training ground notches, perfectly executed notches
and near misses
its all about going out and getting pissed with eagle eyes
and sincerity bottom on my list
what’s the story morning glory?
i feel so low and worthless

so this is where the outcome unfurls and the truth is being told
a cloud has gathered over my head and now i know
infidelity and my good friend ecstasy doesn’t work, it makes you worse
I’m feeling so guilty about the things i said to my mum when i was ten years old
I’m feeling so guilty about any old shit
and how I think my missus is fucking every guy that she looks at
this is it, the end was always coming and now its here

so this is the grande finale
the crescendo of demise
this is the happy ending
where the bad guy goes down and dies
this is the end
with me on my knees and wondering why?
cross my heart, hope to die
its my own cheating heart that makes me cry

She’s a rainbow and she loves the peaceful life
Knows I’ll go crazy if I don’t go crazy tonight
There’s a part of me in chaos that’s quiet
And there’s a part of you that wants me to riot
Everybody needs to cry or needs to spit
Every sweet-tooth needs just a little hit
Every beauty needs to go out with an idiot
How can you stand next to the truth and not see it?
Change of heart comes slow..

It’s not a hill it’s a mountain
As you start out the climb
Do you believe me or are you doubtin?
We’re gonna make it all the way to the light
But I know I’ll go crazy if I don’t go crazy tonight

Every generation gets a chance to change the world
Divination that will listen to your boys and girls
Is the sweetest melody the one we haven’t heard?
Is it true that perfect love drives out all fear?
The right to be ridiculous is something I hold dear
But change of heart comes slow…

It’s not a hill it’s a mountain
As you start out the climb
You see for me I’ve been shoutin
But we’re gonna make it all the way to the light
But I know I’ll go crazy if I don’t go crazy tonight

Baby, baby, baby, I know I’m not alone
Baby, baby, baby, I know I’m not alone
Ha, ha, ha

It’s not a hill it’s a mountain
You see for me I’ve been shouting
Let’s shout until the darkness, squeeze out sparks of light
You know we’ll go crazy
You know we’ll go crazy
You know we’ll go crazy, if we don’t go crazy tonight

Baby slow down
The end is not as fun as the start
Please stay a child somewhere in your heart

I’ll give you everything you want
Except the thing that you want
You are the first one of your kind

And you feel like no-one before
You steal right under my door
And I kneel cos I want you some more
I want the lot of what you got
And I want nothing that you’re not

Everywhere you go you shout it
You don’t have to be shy about it

Some things you shouldn’t get too good at
Like smiling, crying and celebrity
Some people got way too much confidence baby

I’ll give you everything you want
Except the thing that you want
You are the first one of your kind

And you feel like no-one before
You steal right under my door
I kneel cos I want you some more
I want the lot of what you got
And I want nothing that you’re not

Everywhere you go you shout it
You don’t have to be shy about it, no
And you’ll never be alone
Come on now show your soul
You’ve been keeping your love under control

Everywhere you go you shout it
You don’t have to be shy about it

Everywhere you go you shout it
Oh my my

And you feel like no-one before
You steal right under my door
I kneel cos I want you some more
I want you some more, I want you some more
