Spending all my
nights, all my money going out on the town
Doing anything just to get you off of my mind, yeah
But when the morning comes, I'm right back where I started again
And tryna forget you is just a waste of time
Baby come back, any
kind of fool could see
There was something in everything about you
Baby come back, yeah, you can blame it all on me
'Cause I was wrong, and I just can't live without you
All day long, wearing
a mask of false bravado (false bravado)
Tryna keep up a smile that hides a tear (hides a tear)
But as the sun goes down, I get that empty feeling again
How I wish to God that you were here
Baby come back, yeah,
any kind of fool could see
There was something in everything about you
Baby come back, you can blame it all on me
I was wrong, and I just can't live without you, no
Now that I put it all
together, ooh
Give me the chance to make you see (make you see, baby)
Have you used up all the love in your heart? (Oh)
Nothing left for me?
Ain't there nothing left for me?
Baby come back, any
kind of fool could see
There was something in everything about you
Baby come back, you can blame it all on me
'Cause I was wrong, and I just can't live without you
Baby I was wrong, and
I just can't live
Baby come back.

There is freedom within, there is freedom withoutTry to catch the deluge
in a paper cupThere's a battle ahead, many battles are lost
But you'll never see the end of the road
While you're travelling with me
Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
We know they won't win
Now I'm towing my
car, there's a hole in the roof
My possessions are causing me suspicions but there's no proof
In the paper today tales of war and of waste
But you turn right over to the TV Page
Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
We know they won't win
Now I'm walking again
to the beat of a drum
And I'm counting the steps to the door of your heart
Only the shadows ahead barely clearing the roof
Get to know the feeling of liberation and relief
Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
We know they won't win
Don't let them win
Hey now, hey now
Hey now, hey now
Don't let them win
Hey now, hey now
Hey now, hey now.
YOU'RE IN MY HEART

becoming a hit in the UK and the Netherlands (number one), Germany (number

three-album run of going number one or top three in North America, the UK and
Australia with each release. That album's "Tonight's the Night (Gonna Be Alright)"

five in other countries. Foot Loose

single, reaching the top ten of many national charts, including number 4 on the
USBillboard Hot 100, number
2 in Canada, and number 1 for one week in Australia.
Billboard Magazinedeclared that "You're in My Heart" should become
"Stewart's biggest easy listening hit" and felt the vocal style was
similar to that of "The Killing
of Georgie".
The lyrics mention two of Stewart's favourite
football teams in the phrase "Celtic,
United".
The inner sleeve to the album Foot Loose & Fancy Free also pictures artwork
with the names Glasgow Celtic and Manchester United drifting out of a car
stereo.
I didn't know what
day it was
When you walked into the room
I said hello unnoticed
You said goodbye too soon
Breezing through the
clientele
Spinning yarns that were so lyrical
I really must confess right here
The attraction was purely physical
I took all those
habits of yours
That in the beginning were hard to accept
Your fashion sense, Beardsley prints
I put down to experience
The big bossed lady
with the Dutch accent
Who tried to change my point of view
Her ad lib lines were well rehearsed
But my heart cried out for you
You're in my heart,
you're in my soul
You'll be my breath should I grow old
You are my lover, you're my best friend
You're in my soul
My love for you is
immeasurable
My respect for you immense
You're ageless, timeless, lace and fineness
You're beauty and elegance
You're a rhapsody, a
comedy
You're a symphony and a play
You're every love song ever written
But honey what do you see in me
You're in my heart,
you're in my soul
You'll be my breath should I grow old
You are my lover, you're my best friend
You're in my soul
You're an essay in
glamor
Please pardon the grammar
But you're every schoolboy's dream
You're Celtic, United, but baby I've decided
You're the best team I've ever seen
And there have been
many affairs
Many times I've thought to leave
But I bite my lip and turn around
'Cause you're the warmest thing I've ever found
You're in my heart,
you're in my soul
You'll be my breath should I grow old
You are my lover, you're my best friend
You're in my soul.

for its complex production and themes of modern alienation, it is acclaimed as a landmark record and one
of the best albums in popular music. Kid A(2000) marked a dramatic change in style,
incorporating influences from electronic music, jazz, classical music and krautrock. Though Kid A divided listeners, it later
attracted wide acclaim. It was followed by Amnesiac(2001), recorded in the same sessions.
Hail to the Thief(2003), with lyrics inspired by
the War on Terror, was Radiohead's final album for EMI. Their
subsequent releases have pioneered alternative release platforms such as pay-what-you-wantand BitTorrent; Radiohead self-released their seventh album, In Rainbows(2007), as a downloadfor which customers could set their
own price, to critical and chart success. Their eighth album, The King of Limbs(2011), an exploration of rhythm, was developed

Please, could you
stop the noise? I'm trying to get some rest
From all the unborn chicken voices in my head
What's that?
(I may be paranoid, but not an android)
What's that?
(I may be paranoid, but not an android)
When I am king, you
will be first against the wall
With your opinion which is of no consequence at all
