    Eddy Grant - Gimme Hope Joanna (1988)



    Lyrics:

    Well Jo'anna she runs a country
    She runs in Durban and the Transvaal
    She makes a few of her people happy, oh
    She don't care about the rest at all
    She's got a system they call apartheid
    It keeps a brother in a subjection
    But maybe pressure can make Jo'anna see
    How everybody could a live as one

    [chorus:]
    Gimme hope, Jo'anna
    Hope, Jo'anna
    Gimme hope, Jo'anna
    'Fore the morning come
    Gimme hope, Jo'anna
    Hope, Jo'anna
    Hope before the morning come

    I hear she make all the golden money
    To buy new weapons, any shape of guns
    While every mother in black Soweto fears
    The killing of another son
    Sneakin' across all the neighbours' borders
    Now and again having little fun
    She doesn't care if the fun and games she play
    Is dang'rous to ev'ryone

    [chorus]

    She's got supporters in high up places
    Who turn their heads to the city sun
    Jo'anna give them the fancy money
    Oh to tempt anyone who'd come
    She even knows how to swing opinion
    In every magazine and the journals
    For every bad move that this Jo'anna makes
    They got a good explanation

    [chorus]

    Even the preacher who works for Jesus
    The Archbishop who's a peaceful man
    Together say that the freedom fighters
    Will overcome the very strong
    I wanna know if you're blind Jo'anna
    If you wanna hear the sound of drums
    Can't you see that the tide is turning
    Oh don't make me wait till the morning come

    [chorus]

    Brown Eyed Girl

    Van Morrison - Brown Eyed Girl (1967)



    Steel Pulse - Brown Eyed Girl (1996)



    Lyrics:

    Hey where did we go,
    Days when the rains came
    Down in the hollow,
    Playin' a new game,
    Laughing and a running hey, hey
    Skipping and a jumping
    In the misty morning fog with
    Our hearts a thumpin' and you
    My brown eyed girl,
    You're my brown eyed girl.

    Whatever happened
    To Tuesday and so slow
    Going down the old mine
    With a transistor radio
    Standing in the sunlight laughing,
    Hiding behind a rainbow's wall,
    Slipping and sliding
    All along the water fall, with you
    My brown eyed girl,
    You're my brown eyed girl.

    Do you remember when we used to sing,
    Sha la la la la la la la la la la te da
    Just like that
    Sha la la la la la la la la la la te da, la te da

    So hard to find my way,
    Now that I'm all on my own.
    I saw you just the other day,
    My how you have grown,
    Cast my memory back there, Lord
    Sometime I'm overcome thinking 'bout
    Making love in the green grass
    Behind the stadium with you
    My brown eyed girl
    You're my brown eyed girl

    Do you remember when we used to sing
    Sha la la la la la la la la la la te da (lying in the green grass)
    Sha la la la la la la la la la la te da (bit, bit, bit, bit, bit, bit)
    Sha la la la la la la la la la la te da ( sha la la la la la...)
    Sha la la la la la la la la la la te da

    Bee Gees - Tragedy (1979)



    Lyrics:

    Here I lie
    In a lost and lonely part of town
    Held in time
    In a world of tears I slowly drown
    Goinhome
    I just can't take it all alone
    I really should be holding you
    Holding you
    Loving you loving you

    Tragedy
    When the feelings gone and you can't go on
    Its tragedy
    When the morning cries and you don't know why
    Its hard to bear
    With no-one to love you youre
    Goin nowhere
    Tragedy
    When you lose control and you got no soul
    Its tragedy
    When the morning cries and you don't know why
    Its hard to bear
    With no-one to love you youre
    Goin nowhere

    Night and day
    There's a burning down inside of me
    Burning love
    With a yearning that wont let me be
    Down I go
    And I just can't take it all alone
    I really should be holding you
    Holding you
    Loving you loving you

    Tragedy
    When the feelings gone and you can't go on
    Its tragedy
    When the morning cries and you don't know why
    Its hard to bear
    With no-one to love you youre
    Goin nowhere
    Tragedy
    When you lose control and you got no soul
    Its tragedy
    When the morning cries and you don't know why
    Its hard to bear
    With no-one to love you youre
    Goin nowhere

    Bee Gees - Words (1968)



    Boyzone - Words (1996)



    Lyrics:

    Smile an everlasting smile
    A smile could bring you near to me
    Don't ever let me find you gone
    'Cause that would bring a tear to me
    This world has lost it's glory
    Let's start a brand new story
    Now my love right now there'll be
    No other time and I can show you
    How my love
    Talk in everlasting words
    And dedicate them all to me
    And I will give you all my life
    I'm here if you should call to me
    You think that I don't even mean
    A single word I say
    It's only words, and words are all
    I have to take your heart away
    You think that I don't even mean
    A single word I say
    It's only words, and words are all
    I have to take your heart away
    It's only words, and words are all
    I have to take your heart away

    R. Kelly - I believe I can fly (1996)



    Lyrics:

    I used to think that I could not go on
    And life was nothing but an awful song
    But now I know the meaning of true love
    I'm leaning on the everlasting arms

    If I can see it, then I can do it
    If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

    [Chorus:]
    I believe I can fly
    I believe I can touch the sky
    I think about it every night and day
    Spread my wings and fly away
    I believe I can soar
    I see me running through that open door
    I believe I can fly
    I believe I can fly
    I believe I can fly

    See I was on the verge of breaking down
    Sometimes silence can seem so loud
    There are miracles in life I must achieve
    But first I know it starts inside of me, oh

    If I can see it, then I can be it
    If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

    [Chorus]

    Hey, cause I believe in me, oh

    If I can see it, then I can do it (I can do it)
    If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

    [Chorus]

    Hey, if I just spread my wings
    I can fly
    I can fly
    I can fly, hey
    If I just spread my wings
    I can fly-eye-eye-eye
    Hum, fly-eye-eye

    When a Man Loves a Woman

    Percy Sledge - When a Man Loves a Woman (1966)



    Michael Bolton - When a Man Loves a Woman (1991)



    Lyrics:

    When a man loves a woman
    Can't keep his mind on nothin' else
    He'd trade the world
    For a good thing he's found
    If she is bad, he can't see it
    She can do no wrong
    Turn his back on his best friend
    If he puts her down

    When a man loves a woman
    Spend his very last dime
    Trying to hold on to what he needs
    He'd give up all his comforts
    And sleep out in the rain
    If she said that's the way
    It ought to be

    When a man loves a woman
    I give you everything I've got (yeah)
    Trying to hold on
    To your precious love
    Baby please don't treat me bad

    When a man loves a woman
    Deep down in his soul
    She can bring him such misery
    If she is playing him for a fool
    He's the last one to know
    Loving eyes can never see

    Yes when a man loves a woman
    I now exactly how he feels
    'Cause baby, baby, baby
    I am a man
    When a man loves a woman

    Chicago - Hard To Say I'm Sorry (1982)



    Lyrics:

    Everybody needs a little time away
    I heard her say, from each other
    Even lovers need a holiday
    Far away from each other

    Hold me now
    It's hard for me
    To say I'm sorry
    I just want you to stay

    After all that
    We've been through
    I will make it up to you
    I promise to

    And after all that's
    Been said and done
    You're just the part of me
    I can't let go

    Couldn't stand to be kept away
    Just for the day, from your body
    Wouldn't wanna be swept away
    Far away from the one that I love

    Hold me now
    It's hard for me
    To say I'm sorry
    I just want you to know

    Hold me now
    I really want to
    Tell you I'm sorry
    I could never let you go

    After all that
    We've been through
    I will make it up to you
    Promise to

    And after all that's
    Been said and done
    You're just the part of me
    I can't let go

    After all that
    We've been through
    I will make it up to you
    I promise to

    You're gonna be the lucky one

    When we get there
    Gonna jump in the air
    No one'll see us
    Cause there's nobody there

    After all, you know
    We really don't care
    Hold on, I'm gonna take you there

    Journey - Faithfully (1983)



    Lyrics:

    Highway run
    Into the midnight sun
    Wheels go round and round
    You're on my mind

    Restless hearts
    Sleep alone tonight
    Sending all my love along the wire
    They say that the road
    Ain't no place to start a family
    Right down the line it's been you and me
    And loving a music man
    Ain't always what it's supposed to be
    Oh Girl
    You stand by me
    I'm forever yours
    Faithfully

    Circus life
    Under the big top world
    We all need the clowns to make us smile

    Through space and time
    Always another show
    Wondering where I am lost without you
    And being apart ain't easy on this love affair
    Two strangers learn to fall in love again
    I get the joy of rediscovering you
    Oh girl
    You stand by me
    I'm forever yours
    Faithfully

    Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
    Oh oh oh oh oh oh
    Faithfully
    I'm still yours
    I'm forever yours
    Ever yours
    Faithfully

    Fool's Garden - Lemon Tree (1995)



    Lyrics:

    I'm sitting here in the boring room
    It's just another rainy Sunday afternoon
    I'm wasting my time
    I got nothing to do
    I'm hanging around
    I'm waiting for you
    But nothing ever happens and I wonder

    I'm driving around in my car
    I'm driving too fast
    I'm driving too far
    I'd like to change my point of view
    I feel so lonely
    I'm waiting for you
    But nothing ever happens and I wonder

    I wonder how
    I wonder why
    Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky
    And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon-tree
    I'm turning my head up and down
    I'm turning turning turning turning turning around
    And all that I can see is just another lemon-tree

    I'm sitting here
    I miss the power
    I'd like to go out taking a shower
    But there's a heavy cloud inside my head
    I feel so tired
    Put myself into bed
    While nothing ever happens and I wonder

    Isolation is not good for me
    Isolation I don't want to sit on the lemon-tree

    I'm steppin' around in the desert of joy
    Baby anyhow I'll get another toy
    And everything will happen and you wonder

    I wonder how
    I wonder why
    Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky
    And all that I can see is just another lemon-tree
    I'm turning my head up and down
    I'm turning turning turning turning turning around
    And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon-tree
    And I wonder, wonder

    I wonder how
    I wonder why
    Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky
    And all that I can see, and all that I can see, and all that I can see
    Is just a yellow lemon-tree

    Richard Marx - Right Here Waiting (1989)



    Lyrics:

    Oceans apart day after day
    And I slowly go insane
    I hear your voice on the line
    But it doesn't stop the pain

    If I see you next to never
    How can we say forever

    Wherever you go
    Whatever you do
    I will be right here waiting for you
    Whatever it takes
    Or how my heart breaks
    I will be right here waiting for you

    I took for granted, all the times
    That I thought would last somehow
    I hear the laughter, I taste the tears
    But I can't get near you now

    Oh, can't you see it baby
    You've got me going crazy

    Wherever you go
    Whatever you do
    I will be right here waiting for you
    Whatever it takes
    Or how my heart breaks
    I will be right here waiting for you

    I wonder how we can survive
    This romance
    But in the end if I'm with you
    I'll take the chance

    Oh, can't you see it baby
    You've got me going crazy

    Wherever you go
    Whatever you do
    I will be right here waiting for you
    Whatever it takes
    Or how my heart breaks
    I will be right here waiting for you
    Waiting for you
