I wanna know what love is...

I gotta take a little time
A little time to think things over
I better read between the lines
In case I need it when Im older

Now this mountain I must climb
Feels like a world upon my shoulders
I through the clouds I see love shine
It keeps me warm as life grows colder

In my life theres been heartache and pain
I dont know if I can face it again
Cant stop now, Ive traveled so far
To change this lonely life

I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me

Im gonna take a little time
A little time to look around me
Ive got nowhere left to hide
It looks like love has finally found me

In my life theres been heartache and pain
I dont know if I can face it again
I cant stop now, Ive traveled so far
To change this lonely life

I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me

I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
And I wanna feel, I want to feel what love is
And I know, I know you can show me

Lets talk about love
I wanna know what love is, the love that you feel inside
I want you to show me, and Im feeling so much love
I wanna feel what love is, no, you just cannot hide
I know you can show me, yeah

I wanna know what love is, lets talk about love
I want you to show me, I wanna feel it too
I wanna feel what love is, I want to feel it too
And I know and I know, I know you can show me
Show me love is real, yeah
I wanna know what love is...

Hotel California

On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night
There she stood in the doorway;
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself,
this could be heaven or this could be hell
Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor,
I thought I heard them say...

Welcome to the hotel california
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the hotel california
Any time of year, you can find it here

Her mind is tiffany-twisted, she got the mercedes bends
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat.
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget

So I called up the captain,
please bring me my wine
He said, we havent had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine
And still those voices are calling from far away,
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say...

Welcome to the hotel california
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
They livin it up at the hotel california
What a nice surprise, bring your alibis

Mirrors on the ceiling,
The pink champagne on ice
And she said we are all just prisoners here, of our own device
And in the masters chambers,
They gathered for the feast
The stab it with their steely knives,
But they just cant kill the beast

Last thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back
To the place I was before
relax, said the night man,
We are programmed to receive.
You can checkout any time you like,
But you can never leave!

Challa...the Ring

Chhalla vas nahi oo mere (The ring it listens to no one )

Chhalla vas meri maan de (The ring it listens only to my mom)
Ghallegi tan jange (It will leave only if she tell it to)
Ve gall sun chhallia (Listen my love)
Khaure keeta kis is ‘te toona (Don’t know who’s done this voodoo )

Chhalla ambian kachian (The ring unripe mangoes )
Mattan de koi sachian (Someone give me sage advices )
Laiey lekhe jo bachian (Let’s commit to contemplation )
Terian merian gharian (What’s left of time yours and mine )
Ve gall sun chhallia (Listen my love)
Langh javan ain na umran khaali( Or our lives will go waste )



Chhalla gut ik lammi (The ring a long braid )
Asan supne chummi (I kissed it in my dream )
Hoi neeyat si anni (The desire had gone blind)
Asan dil di si manni( But I listened to my heart )
Ve gall sun chhallia (Listen my love )
Hun de lai jehrhi deni ey sazaa (Now punish me as you will )

Chhalla boharh ik ‘kalla (The ring a lone banyan)
Unhe farhia ey palla ( He holds on to the )
Thalle dharat utte Allah ....(Earth below and God above)
Ve gall sun chhallia...( Listen my love )
Khaure jandian kinni dunghian jarhan ....(How far run his roots
Es gall da os khud nu nahi pata ....(He knows not himself)

Summer of '69

I got my first real six-string
Bought it at the five-and-dime
Played 'til my fingers bled
It was summer of '69

Me and some guys from school
Had a Band and we tried real hard
Jimmy quit and Jody got married
I shualda known we'd never get far

Oh when I lock back now
That was seemes to last forever
And if I had the choice

Ya - I'd always wanna be there
Those were the best days of my life

Ain't no use in complainin'
When you got a job to do
Spent my evenin's down at the drive in
And that's when I met you

Standin on a mama's porch
You told me that you'd wait forever
Oh and when you held my hand
I knew that it was no or never
Those were the best days of my life

Back in Summer of '69

Man we were killin' time
We were young and restless
We needed to unwind
I guess nothin' can last forever, no

And now the times are changin'
Look at everything that's come and gone
Somethimes when I play that old six-string
I think about ya wonder what went wrong

Standin' on a mama's porch
You told me it would last forever
Oh the way you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life

Back in summer of '69

18 Till I Die...

I wanna be young the rest of my life
never say no - try anything twice
til the angels come and ask me to fly
I'm gonna be 18 til I die - 18 til I die

can't live forever that's wishful thinkin'
who ever said that must of bin' drinkin'
don't wanna grow up I don't see why
I couldn't care less if time flies by

18 til I die - gonna be 18 til I die
it sure feels good to be alive
someday I'll be 18 goin' on 55! - 18 til I die

anyway - I just wanna say
why bother with what happened yesterday
it's not my style I live for the minute
if ya wanna stay young get both feet in it - 18 til I die

a 'lil bit of this - a 'lil bit of that
'lil bit of everything - gotta get on track
it's not how ya look, it's what ya feel inside
I don't care when - I don't need ta know why

18 til I die - gonna be 18 til I die
ya it sure feels good to be alive
someday I'll be 18 goin' on 55! - 18 til I die
ya there's one thing for sure - I'm sure gonna try

don't worry 'bout the future - forget about the past
gonna have a ball - ya we're gonna have a blast
gonna make it last - 18 til I die

" Pocketful of Sunshine "

I got a pocket, Got a pocket full of sunshine
I got a love and I know that it's all mine
Do what you want, But you never gonna break me,Sticks and stones are never gonna shake
(take me away)A secret place
(a secret place)A sweet escape
(a sweet escape)Take me away
(take me away)Take me away
take me away...To better days
A hiding place
Wish that you could, But you ain't gonna own me
Do anything you can to control me
There's a place that I go Where nobody knows
Where the rivers flow And I call it home
And there's no more lies
And darkness is light
And nobody cries
There's only butterflies
Take me away
A secret place
The sweet escape
My hiding place
To better days
The sun's on my side
Take me for a ride
I smile up to the sky
I know I'll be alright

"Hey There Delilah"

Hey there Delilah, What's it like in New York City?

I'm a thousand miles away

But girl tonight you look so pretty

Yes you do

Time Square can't shine as bright as you

I swear it's true

Hey there Delilah, Don't you worry about the distance

I'm right there if you get lonely

Give this song another listen

Close your eyes

Listen to my voice it's my disguise

I'm by your side

Hey there Delilah, I know times are getting hard
But just believe me girl

Someday I'll pay the bills with this guitar

We'll have it good

We'll have the life we knew we would

My word is good

Hey there Delilah, I've got so much left to say

If every simple song I wrote to you
Would take your breath awayI'd write it all
Even more in love with me you'd fall

We'd have it all

A thousand miles seems pretty far,

But they've got planes and trains and cars

I'd walk to you if I had no other way

Our friends would all make fun of us

And we'll just laugh along because we know

That none of them have felt this way

Delilah I can promise you

That by the time we get through

The world will never ever be the same

And you're to blame

Hey there Delilah,

You be good and don't you miss me

Two more years and you'll be done with school

And I'll be making history like I do

You know it's all because of you

We can do whatever we want to

Hey there Delilah here's to you

This ones for you

Who I Am....

And I'd give up forever to touch you

Cause I know that you feel me somehow

You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be

And I don't want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life

Cause sooner or later it's over

I just don't want to miss you tonight

And I don't want the world to see me

Cause I don't think that they'd understand

When everything's made to be broken

I just want you to know who I am

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming

Or the moment of truth in your lies

When everything feels like the movies

Yeah you bleed just to know you're alive

And I don't want the world to see me

Cause I don't think that they'd understand

When everything's made to be broken

I just want you to know who I am

I don't want the world to see me

Cause I don't think that they'd understand

When everything's made to be broken

I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am

Afterglow

Here I am, Lost in the light of the moon,

That comes through my window.

Bathed in blue, The walls of my memory divides,

The thorns from the roses. It's you and the roses.

Touch me and I will follow, In your afterglow.

Heal me from all this sorrow, As I let you go.

I will find my way When I see your eyes, Now I'm living, In your afterglow.

Here I am, Lost in the ashes of time,

But who wants tomorrow,

In between, Longing to hold you again, I'm caught in your shadow. I'm losing control. My mind drifts away, We only have today.

Touch me and I will follow, In your afterglow.

Heal me from all this sorrow, As I let you go.

I will find my way, I will sacrifice, 'Til the blinding day, When I see your eyes.

Now I'm living, In your afterglow [in your afterglow].

When the veils are gone, As I let you go, As I let you go.

Touch me and I will follow, In your afterglow.

Heal me from all this sorrow, As I let you go.

I will find my way I will sacrifice, Now I'm living, In your afterglow.

Bathed in blue, The walls of my memory divides, The thorns from the roses. It's you who is closest
