I'll get you everything you wanted,
I'll get you everything you need,
You don't need to believe in hereafter,
Just believe in me.
I'll get you everything you wanted,
I'll get you everything you need,
You don't need to believe in hereafter,
Just believe in me.
I remember long ago when the sun was shining,
Yes, and the stars were bright all through the night,
And the sound of your laughter as I held you tight, so long ago.
Say something to me, anything at all,
I want you to mean what you say,
I've seen all I want to see,
And you mean the world to me,
I've lived for each moment
To be with you, with you, with you.
And take in your hands
A little ray of light
And turn it into a beam,
That pierces the darkness of the night...
And on the morning after
Do you realise,
See the ruined faces
And the ruined lives,
Inside your head
Do you never have
the thought, a moment of doubt?
Mothers crying in the street,
Children dying at their feet,
Tell me why, tell me why?
People starving everywhere,
There's too much food
But none to spare,
tell me why, tell me why?
I won't be coming home tonight,
My generation will put it right.
We're not just making promises,
That we know, we'll never keep.
Isn't it a shame that you were lying,
When you said to me (small talk),
I was the only one,
You and I were meant to be?
The last cold ray of sunshine
Slowly disappears
Round the corner of the building
And leaves you alone,
When darkness covers the city
And the streets are silent too,
What will you turn to?
Things were never easy for me
Peace of mind was hard to fin.
And I needed a place where I could hide,
Somewhere I could call mine.
