When It's Good

You're a prison I can't escape
You're a decision that I never make
Heard me laughing
You heard me weep and moan

Oh when it's good it's so, so good
And when it's gone, it's gone

They say that time will kill the pain
I say pain is gonna kill my time
Lord won't you save me
Or leave me alone

Cause when it's good it's so, so good
And when it's gone, it's gone
I hang your picture right above my mind
Don't do anything you can't deny
I could never be your pawn

Cause when it's good it's so, so good
And when it's gone, it's gone

Some drink to remember
Some to forget
Some for satisfaction
Some to regret
I hope a brighter day to you I've shown

Cause when it's good it's so, so good
And when it's gone, it's gone
And when it's gone, it's gone
And when it's gone, it's gone
Oh when it's gone, it's gone

Diamonds On The Inside

I knew a girl
Her name was truth
She was a horrible liar.

Ho conosciuto una ragazza
Il suo nome era verità
Era un bugiarda

She couldn't spend one day alone
But she couldn't be satisfied.

Non poteva restare neanche un giorno da sola
Ma non era (lo stesso) mai soddisfatta

When you have everything,
You have everything to lose.
She made herself a bed of nails
And she's planning' on putting' it to use.

Perchè quando hai tutto
Hai (anche) tutto da perdere
Si è costruita da sola un letto di chiodi
E sta pensando di metterlo in uso

But she had diamonds on the inside
She had diamonds on the inside
She had diamonds on the inside
Diamonds

Ma aveva diamanti dentro di sé
Aveva diamanti dentro di sé
Aveva diamanti dentro di sé
Diamanti

A candle throws its light into the darkness
In a nasty world, so shines the good deed
Make sure the fortune, that you seek
Is the fortune you need.

Una candela manda la sua luce nell'oscurità
E' così che una buona azione risplende in un mondo cattivo
Assicurati che la fortuna che cerchi
Sia la fortuna di cui hai bisogno

So tell me why the first to ask
Is the last to give every time
What you say and do not mean
Follow you close behind

Allora dimmi perchè il primo a chiedere
è l'ultimo a dare, ogni volta
Quello che dici e che non pensi
Ti segue da vicino

She had diamonds on the inside
She had diamonds on the inside
She wore diamonds on the inside
Diamonds

Aveva diamanti dentro di sé
Aveva diamanti dentro di sé
Aveva diamanti dentro di sé
Diamanti

Like the soldier standing long under fire
Any change comes as a relief
Let the giver's name remain unspoken
For she is just a generous thief

Come (per) il soldato a lungo sotto il fuoco nemico
Ogni cambiamento arriva come un sollievo
Fa che il nome di colui che dona resti anonimo
Perchè lei è solo una ladra generosa

She had diamonds on the inside
She had diamonds on the inside
She wore diamonds on the inside
She wore diamonds
Oh diamonds
She had diamonds
She wore diamonds
Diamonds

Aveva diamanti dentro di sé
Aveva diamanti dentro di sé
Portava diamanti dentro di sé
Lei indossava diamanti
Oh diamanti
Aveva diamanti
Lei indossava diamanti
Diamanti

Touch From The Lust

I need to sleep but I'm too tired
I need to come down but I'm too wired
When the sun comes up I miss the moon
'Cause I know tomorrow is gonna come too soon
Is gonna come too soon

Ho bisogno di dormire ma sono troppo stanco
Ho bisogno di fermarmi ma sono troppo su di giri
Quando sorge il sole mi manca la luna
Perchè so che domani arriverà troppo presto
Arriverà troppo presto

She only wants to be wanted
But time crumbles blue roses to dust
Now, I long to feel the touch from your lust

Lei vuole solo essere desiderata
Ma il tempo frantuma le rose blu rendendole polvere
Ora so di sentire il contatto del tuo desiderio

Scars on your back tell where you've been
But I'll roll like the ocean if you'll blow like the wind?
Sweet Texas angel what have your blue eyes seen?
I'll be your country gentleman
If you'll come be my Mason-Dixon Queen
Queen

Segni sulla tua schiena dicono dove sei stata
Ma io mi muoverò come l’oceano se tu soffierai come il vento
Dolce angelo texano cosa hanno visto i tuoi occhi azzurri?
Sarò il tuo gentiluomo di campagna
Se tu verrai da me sarai la mia regina della linea Mason-Dixon (1)
La mia regina

She only wants to be wanted
But time crumbles blue roses to dust
Now I long to feel the touch from your lust

Lei vuole solo essere desiderata
Ma il tempo frantuma le rose blu rendendole polvere
Ma ora so di sentire il contatto del tuo desiderio

So much sweeter than the rest
You're what lies between pain and death
Sinners and saints call you by name
If you're gonna take the praise
You're gonna have to learn to take the blame

Sei molto più dolce delle altre
Tu sei ciò che si trova tra il dolore e la morte
Peccatori e santi ti chiamano per nome
Se accetterai la lode
Dovrai imparare ad accettare anche il rimprovero

She only wants to be wanted
But time crumbles blue roses to dust
Now, I long to feel the touch from your lust
She only wants to be wanted
Time crumbles blue roses to dust
Now I long to feel the touch from your lust

Lei vuole solo essere desiderata
Ma il tempo frantuma le rose blu rendendole polvere
Ora so di sentire il tocco del tuo desiderio
Lei vuole solo essere desiderata
Il tempo frantuma le rose blu rendendole polvere
(Ma) ora so di sentire il contatto del tuo desiderio

When She Believes

The good Lord is such a good Lord
With such a good mother too
They have blessed me
They have blessed me
In the good graces of you
Now I
I have heard a hundred violins crying
Oh, I
I have seen a hundred white doves flying

Il buon Signore è così un buon Signore
(e ha) anche una buona madre
Mi hanno dato la benedizione
Mi hanno dato la benedizione
Consegnandomi alle tue grazie
Ora io
Ho sentito piangere cento violini
Oh, io
Ho visto volare cento colombe

But nothing is as beautiful
As when she believes
When she believes
When she believes
When she believes
When she believes
When she believes
In me
Oh,  in me
Oh,  no no...

Ma non c'è nulla di così bello
Come quando lei crede in me
...



 

How good it must feel
To be so young, young and free
And a song that pleases a queen
Will always
Always please me
I have heard the wisest of wisdom
Now I have dined in palaces and kingdoms

Come deve essere bello
Essere così giovane, giovane e libera
E una canzone che piacerebbe ad una regina
Gratificherà sempre
sempre anche me
Ho ascoltato la più profonda delle saggezze
Ho cenato in palazzi e reami

Ma non c'è nulla di così bello
Come quando lei crede in me
...

Now, all of life
Is just passing the time
Until
Until once again
Your eyes look into mine

Ora, tutta a vita
è solo un far passare il tempo
Finché
Finchè i tuoi occhi un'altra volta
I tuoi occhi guarderanno dentro i miei

Ora io,
Sono stato adorato, adorato da una persona sconosciuta
Ho ascoltato un angelo, un angelo sussurrare

But nothing is as beautiful
As when she believes
When she believes
When she believes
When she believes
When she believes
When she believes
In me
Oh,  in me
Oh... she believes in me

Ma non c'è nulla di così bello
Come quando lei crede in me
...

Brown Eyed Blues

If I say I knew being here with you today,
Would mean being alone tomorrow.
I would gladly trade all of my tomorrows away
For a moment with you.

Brown eyed blues
You can find yourself another fool.
Say yeah, yeah, yeah

Can you look
Can you look into my eyes
Or has your heart
Said has your heart gone blind?
Can you look
Can you look into your own
And find the safe place to hide.

Brown eyed blues
You can find yourself another fool.
Say yeah, yeah, yeah

Why be with strangers
When you could be with your friend.
If you're ever lonely
You know I'm lonely too
And I will stay lonely until I'm again with you
With you

I say brown eyed blues
You can find yourself another fool.
Say yeah, yeah, yeah
I say brown eyed blues
Oh no
I say brown eyed blues

Bring The Funk

When it's all in one
You know the funks begun
When you're down and out
There is no doubt
You need the funk
Just bring the funk
Bring the funk
Bring the funk

Now what's the problem
Everybody's got 'em
Just get the hole
Out of your soul
And bring the funk
Bring me the funk
Bring the funk

If you got a glass closet
Don't you throw no bones
There's only gettin'
Until the getting's gone
So pass me the funk
Got to have my funk
Need funk
Some are jiving
Some are shuck
Some are just down on their luck
They just need the funk
Just bring them some funk
Bring it ,bring it, bring it

Well stay black, stay white,
Stay brown, get on down
Just bring the funk
Bring the funk
I need it, i need it

Well it's got to be solid
That's what you call it
Funk me up
Funk me down
Funk me sideways
Funk me all ways
Bring the funk
Got to bring the funk

Some things money can't fix
Something's only money will do the trick
It's not the end of the world
But I can see it from here
So bring me the funk
Just bring me the funk
Bring me the funk

Everything

Behind all of your tears
There's a smile, there's a smile
Behind all of the rain
There's a sunshine 'for miles and miles'
Everything
You mean everything
Everything to me

The colors of your garden
They're yellow, blue, green
The sound of your sweet voice
It's better than all my dreams

Everything
You mean everything
Everything to me

You're my first thought in the morning
When I rise, when I rise
You're my last thought in the evening
When I rest my head at night

Everything
You mean everything
Everything to me

Everything to me
You mean everything
Everything to me

"Amen Omen"

What started as a whisper,
Slowly turned in to a scream.
Searching for an answer
Where the question is unseen.
I don't know where you came from
And I don't know where you've gone.
Old friends become old strangers
Between darkness and the door

Amen omen
Will I see your face again?
Amen omen
Can I find the place within
To live my life without you?

I still hear you saying
"All of life is chance,
And is sweetest, is sweetest when at a glance"
But I live,
I live a hundred 
Hundred lifetimes in a day
But I die a little
In every breath that I take.

Amen omen
Will I see your face again?
Amen omen
Can I find the place within
To live my life without you?

I listen to a whisper,
Slowly drift away
Silence is the loudest
Parting word you never say
I put, I put your world
Into my veins
Now a voiceless sympathy
Is all that remains

Amen omen
Will I see your face again?
Amen omen
Can I find the place within
To live my life without you?

Temporary Remedy

I killed the snake with a bible
I was living a Johnny Cash song 
I'm afraid for this I may be liable
so its best be moving
Moving along

Just a temporary remedy
Running through my
Running through my veins

Summer lasted through November
Funny when its gone you miss cold
Words can be spoken for a lifetime
We can never hear until we're told

Just a temporary remedy - yeah
And is running through
Running through my veins

Well they tell me nothing is perfect
Then tell me why is it a word
Yesterday's news is tomorrow's blues
And now they're perfectly blurred

Temporary remedy
Running through
Running through my veins
Just a temporary remedy - yeah
Running through
Running through my veins

So High So Low

Oh,  Once you know you can never
You can never turn back
Oh,  But I understand
'Cause we all fear what we lack
Being with you
Makes me tired as hell
Tired as hell

And it's so high, so low
Oh,  So high, so low

Now if I was strong
And you were male
You'd be dead
And I would be in jail
Being with you
Oh,  makes me tired as hell
Tired as hell

Now it's so high, so low
Oh,  it's so high, so low

Don't go making promises
You know you won't keep
Weddings turn to funerals
Both with songs that make you weep
Being with you
Makes me tired as hell

And it's so high, so low
Oh,  Now it's so high, so low
Now it's so high, so low
So high, so low

Blessed To Be A Witness

Corcovado parted the sky
And through the darkness
On us he shined
Crucified in stone
Still his blood is my own
Glory behold all my eyes
Have seen

I am blessed 
I am blessed 
I am blessed to be a witness

Some have flown away
And can't be with us here today
Like the hills of my home
Some have crumbled and now are gone
Gather around for today
Won't come again
Won't come again

I am blessed 
I am blessed 
I am blessed to be a witness

So much sorrow and pain
But I will not live in vain
Like a good question never asked
Is wisdom wasted on the past
Only by the grace of God
Go I
Go I

I am blessed 
I am blessed 
I am blessed to be a witness

Picture Of Jesus

It hangs above my altar 
Like they hung him from a cross
I keep one in my wallet 
For the times that I feel lost, I feel lost
In a wooden frame with splinters
Where my family kneels to pray
And if you listen close
You will hear the words he used to say

I've got a picture of Jesus
In his arms, so many prayers rest
We've got a picture of Jesus
And with him we shall be forever blessed
Forever blessed

Now it has been spoken
That he would come again
But would we recognize
This king among men?
There was a man in our time
His words shine bright like the sun
He tried to lift the masses
He was crucified by gun

And he was a picture of Jesus
With him so many prayers rest
He is a picture of Jesus
In his arms so many prayers, so many prayers, so many prayers rest
With him we shall be forever blessed
Forever blessed

Some days have no beginning
And some days have no end
Some roads are straight and narrow
And some roads only bend
So let us say a prayer for every living thing
Walking towards a light
From the cross of a king

We long to be a picture of Jesus
Of Jesus
In his arms so many prayers rest
I long to be a picture of Jesus
With him we shall be forever blessed
With him we shall be forever blessed
I long
I've got a picture of Jesus

She Is Only Happy In The Sun

I know you may not want to see me
On your way down from the clouds
Would you hear me if I told you
That my heart is with you now

She's only happy in the sun
She's only happy in the sun

Did you find what you were after
The pain and laughter brought you to your knees
But if the sun sets you free, sets you free
You'll be free indeed

She's only happy in the sun
She's only happy in the sun

Every time I hear you laughing
Hear you laughing
It makes me cry
Like the story of life
Of life
Is hello goodbye

She's only happy in the sun
She's only happy in the sun

She's only happy in the sun
She's only happy in the sun
