25 Years 03:47
25 Years, so many memories God knows how I feel inside Without you don’t know what would I be But I don’t want to know that I don’t want to find out The laughter and the pain The sunshine and the rain Always by our side I wouldn’t change a thing But 25 is not enough Give me 99 Give me 99 Give me 99 25 is not enough We’ll fight against the time I remember when I met you babe You where shining like a sun Then you gave me the two brightest stars We are not the only ones now We are not the only ones After all that’s said and done We still have a lot of fun I am so glad I am by your side I wouldn’t change a thing But 25 is not enough Give me 99 Give me 99 Give me 99 25 is not enough We’ll fight against the time I will walk the earth I will sail the oceans As long as we can smile It’s been a crazy ride With you by my side I would do it all again I want to fly Give me 99 Give me 99 Give me 99 25 is not enough We’ll fight against the time

Have you Ever Need Someone? Have you Ever Need Someone? Have you Ever Need Someone So Bad? And I Need You So That my Heart Can’t Even Go Running the Destiny of my Life Feel Feel the Words with Love Through the Skies Above Making it Shine there with the Stars You Don’t need the Answer Cause Your Heart Needs Love Strike me Like a Dancer Cause I Need You So My Heart Goes into… Have you Ever Need Someone? Have you Ever Need Someone? Have you Ever Need Someone So Bad?

Who cares about the meaning of this century? Do you have a love? I ain’t got it by my side I always choose to take my foolish pride away Heartbreaks are the stories that your best friend cries Love bleeds in his eyes Drowned at a desert Burned by a million frozen lies Should we all betray all the things that we want to say? Near the river there’s a tree, Where we can go and scream all our tears away What goes on? If things you care about are just Meant to fade away Abandoned and forgotten Reminds me of an old God turning gray Should we fight ? For all the things that we believe Are the turning point The end and beginning Of this amazing endless road we share Should we all betray all the things that we want to say? Near the river there’s a tree Where we can go and scream all our tears away Should we all betray all the things that we want to say? Near the river there’s a tree Where we can go and scream all our tears away Who cares about the meaning of this century? Should we all betray all the things that we want to say? Near the river there’s a tree Where we can go and scream all our tears away Should we all betray all the things that we want to say? Near the river there’s a tree, Where we can go and scream all our tears away

I cannot get my heart to you I cannot see my eyes on you I cannot talk to you And walk with you And all with you And I I cannot talk my heart to you I’m in love with you In love with you In love with you There’s nothing I can do There’s nothing else I wouldn’t do And I I’m getting used to missing you I’m getting used to myself too I’m getting used to use my phone To listen and to see you And I I’m getting used to missing you I’ve been waiting for so long I don’t know if I can keep on holding on Do you want me? Do you love me? Will we ever be as one For time to come… Forever… I cannot get my heart to you I’m in love with you In love with you In love with you There’s nothing I can do There’s nothing else I wouldn’t do I’m so in love with you right now I’ve been so in love with you that I don’t know where I am going I’ve been so in love with you Been so in love with you that I don’t eat don’t drink, don’t fall asleep And I Without you I am so lonely I’m in love with you So in love with you that I don’t know what else to say... I cannot get my heart to you…

My eyes are losing color Draft of memories Screaming in my brain You are the target I’m flying for Love without a stain Insane You know what I’m dying for I still want you To dance the tango To stick to my skin Silk as weather and morning sun Flowers for our love Lying in the sand Like a promise never gone Now I’m here Miles away And I still see that shadow in your eyes And I want you I will always be by your side I still want you Still got that needing of your eyes In steel we are building a sunset That will never set So real As a tear in your eyes I still love you Still write the letters of my wild, wild, wild dreams As “till the morning rise I’ll kiss you” London is my child, she swears Thames River waits for us Now I’m here Miles away And I still see that shadow in your eyes And I want you I will always be by your side And I still see that shadow in your eyes And I want you Be by my side

Now she’s gone And I don’t have to feel like I’m in love I don’t have to feel that way Now she’s gone Gone forever Never felt so alone And I don’t have to feel this way That I can’t change Dress you up in women’s clothes Get you all the things you ever need But never had the strength to hold Now she’s gone And I don’t have to feel like I’m in love I don’t have to feel that way Cause I can change I’d pay for all your crazy tolls Let you cross the bridge Where the end begins Lights the breeze that heals the souls Now she’s gone Gone forever Never felt so alone And I don’t have to feel this way Cause I can change

Climbing up and then going down again (I’m going to get up) Trying to keep my head up high (High) Step by step I’m gonna find my way (find my way) Through the twists and turns of everyday There is something in the air tonight Yeah the stars are shining bright I feel this magic over you and me (Magic) I feel this power Feel this energy We don’t have to fall and never get back up again We can learn with our mistakes and sail the winds away We have been given another chance today Let’s just turn the blues away Life is hard but I won’t complain (I never complain) I keep on playing my own game (My own game) I paint the night with dreams of clear blue sky (Clear blue sky) I know that the sun will rise and shine There is something in the air tonight Yeah the stars are shining bright I feel this magic over you and me (Magic) I feel this power Feel this energy We don’t have to fall and never get back up again We can learn with our mistakes and sail the winds away We have been given another chance today Let’s just turn the blues away I decided today that I will make a new reality I am gonna stop thinking about the things that I don’t want to be I’m gonna live my dreams Energize my happy streams I’m the one who’s going to have it all from tonight I’m gonna wear my smile Let it flow Enjoy the ride I will be a magnet I will make it alright I will make you laugh till you forget to cry Start this chain reaction that has been waiting for life There is something in the air tonight Yeah the stars are shining bright

There’s a motion in her eyes That makes me laugh, that makes me cry For the beauty that I see is something close to eternity And I I feel extraordinary by her side And I wonder why When she walks, her movement talks And tells me things I want to hear It may be a consequence of my imagination And I I feel extraordinary by her side And I wonder why I wish she was mine All the time I don’t know my destination But I am walking by her side She will surely go her own way And I know I’ll follow mine And I I feel extraordinary by her side And I wonder why And I I feel extraordinary by her side And I wonder why There’s a motion in her eyes That makes me laugh, that makes me cry For the beauty that I see is something close to eternity And I I feel extraordinary by her side And I wonder why

Man in the mirror Watch yourself You’ve been hiding a little You’ve been held Cross the border to the other side Need yourself Can’t you see I’m feeling down? Feeling lonely like I’ve never been Talk to me Give me just an “Hi” Tonight The air heavy I need to feel alive And cry Spread my wings and fly You got the right to be free You got the right to believe in yourself You got the right to be here, with me Man in the mirror Caught in a crossfire You’ve been the needing I’ve been trying to hide Give you a little love and affection Give you the right Part of the action Man in the mirror What do you want? Man in the mirror In case you don’t know There’s a lot of things we’ve gotta do Maybe shout and scream To share our point of view Together You belong to me I see myself in you Before the day comes We’ll be getting through To grab the light and move You got the right to be free You got the right to believe in yourself You got the right to be here, with me Man in the mirror Caught in a crossfire You’ve been the needing I’ve been trying to hide Give you a little love and affection Give you the right Part of the action There’s a Man in the Mirror

Night is on my way But I just can’t sleep Cause I got a crazy dream about a feeling So much to do Many dreams have flown away Far away From you Just got to fight upon a reason Explode and turn the walls That hang your life Babe and I’ve tried To see ourselves building our reason Climbing high Winning all the sky Keep on shining Up in your way, oh darling Got to face that I’m still running for your love Woo babe Tonight “Amor”, I feel so lonely The lights are off, I can feel the candle Burning wild But smooth and silent as we feel There’s a magic coming Up on me Keep on shining Up in your way, oh darling Got to face that I’m still running for your love Whatever you say or do This is our song Remember times of living wild About the old times Tonight “Amor”, I feel so lonely The lights are off I can feel the candle Burning wild But smooth and silent as we feel There’s a magic coming Up on me That’s the dream that I will chase Up in my way, oh darling Got to face that I’m still running for your love Keep on shining Up in your way, oh darling Got to face that I’m still running for your love Whatever you say or do This is our song Remember times of living wild About the old times

You got wonder eyes and a pretty face A beautiful mind that can make a difference And this ain’t easy to be found Those happy brains With a pretty smile Believe me I really want to be with you And I need you I really want to stay with you Why don’t you give me some time? Tell me your stories and rhymes Don’t be afraid of emotion There’s a new day on the rise Just a little bit of time So I can look in your eyes Enjoy the sound of your voice Let me take you for a ride Show me all your dreams and fantasies The reason for tears and mysteries The fire and light The thunder and rain The joy and the laughter The sorrow and pain Believe me I really want to be with you And I need you I really want to stay with you Why don’t you give me some time? Tell me your stories and rhymes Don’t be afraid of emotion There’s a new day on the rise Just a little bit of time So I can look in your eyes Enjoy the sound of your voice Let me take you for a ride You got wonder eyes and a pretty face A beautiful mind that can make a difference Pretty smile But inside you cry So much wisdom twisting through the lies But the hope keeps you in disguise Like a light through the night Why don’t you give me some time? Tell me your stories and rhymes Don’t be afraid of emotion There’s a new day on the rise Just a little bit of time So I can look in your eyes Enjoy the sound of your voice Let me take you for a ride

Buying things and show it Taking photos of your eyes Forcing smiles and gestures Posting phrases Enigmatic alibis So we wish that we could have your Perfect Life Underneath the surface You are wondering why Why this pain of being lonely Why this need to hide and cry All you want is just an ordinary life As you are growing older Sometimes feeling tired You don’t have to be a legend All you want is just an ordinary life With ordinary dreams Ordinary people Living ordinary things Give me ordinary love With your ordinary kisses from above Listen to your inner voice Where are you now? You’re forgiven But it’s time to rise It’s time to fight Remember days of wonder Days of million smiles Feeling safe there in his arms Feeling happy with an ordinary life With ordinary dreams An ordinary voice Whispering ordinary things Give me ordinary love With your ordinary kisses from above Listen to your inner voice Where are you now? You’re forgiven But it’s time to rise It’s time to fight Where are you now? You’re forgiven But it’s time to rise It’s time to fight
