Seven weeks have passed now since she left me She shows her face to ask me how I am She says the kids are fine and that they miss me Maybe I could come and baby sit sometime She says "Are you O.K.? I was worried about you Can you forgive me? I hope that you′ll be happy." I′m so happy that I can′t stop crying I′m so happy I′m laughing through my tears
I saw a friend of mine He said "I was worried about you I heard she had another man, I wondered how you felt about it?" I′m so happy that I can′t stop crying I′m so happy I′m laughing though my tears Saw my lawyer, Mr Good News He got me joint custody and legal separation I′m so happy that I can′t stop crying I′m laughing through my tears I′m laughing through my tears
I took a walk alone last night I looked up at the stars To try and find an answer in my life I chose a star for me I chose a star for him I chose two stars for my kids and one star for my wife Something made me smile Something seemed to ease the pain Something about the universe and how it′s all connected
The park is full of Sunday fathers and melted ice cream We try to do the best within the given time A kid should be with his mother Everybody knows that What can a father do but baby-sit sometimes? I saw that friend of mine, he said, "You look different somehow" I said, "Everybody′s got to leave the darkness sometime" I′m so happy that I can′t stop crying I′m laughing through my tears I′m laughing through my tears I′m so happy that I can′t stop crying I′m laughing through my tears I′m laughing through my tears
Downtown′s been caught by the hysteria People scream and shout A generation′s on the move When disco spreads like a bacteria These lonely days are out Welcome the passion of the groove
The golden years The silver tears You wore a tie like Richard Gere I wanna get down You spin me around I stand on the borderline Crying at the discoteque Crying at the discoteque
I saw you crying I saw you crying at the discoteque I saw you crying I saw you crying at the discoteque
Tonight′s the night at the danceteria The joining of the tribe The speakers blasting clear and loud The way you dance is our criteria The DJ takes you high Let tears of joy baptise the crowd
The golden years The silver tears You wore a tie like Richard Gere I wanna get down You spin me around I stand on the borderline Crying at the discoteque Crying at the discoteque I saw you crying I saw you crying at the discoteque I saw you crying I saw you crying at the discoteque
The passion of the groove Generation on the move Joining of the disco tribe Let the music take you high
The golden years The silver tears You wore a tie like Richard Gere I wanna get down You spin me around I stand on the borderline Crying at the discoteque Crying at the discoteque I saw you crying I saw you crying at the discoteque I saw you crying I saw you crying at the discoteque
Hold up... hold on... don′t be scared, You′ll never change what′s been and gone. May your smile... Shine on... Don′t be scared, Your destiny may keep you warm.
Cause all of the stars have faded away, Just try not to worry, You′ll see them some day. Take what you need, And be on your way, And stop crying your heart out.
Get up... (Get Up) Come on... (Come On) why you scared? (I′m not scared) You′ll never change what′s been and gone.
Cause all of the stars have faded away, Just try not to worry, You′ll see them some day. Take what you need, And be on your way, And stop crying your heart out.

When all of the stars were faded away, Just try not to worry, You′ll see us some day. Just take what you need, And be on your way, And stop crying your heart out.
We smile and smile We smile and smile Laughter echoes in your eyes We climb and climb We climb and climb Footfall softly in the pines We cry and cry We cry and cry Sadness passes in a while We role and role We role and role Help me role away the stone
Sat in the cafe by the cracker factory You were practicing a magic trick And my thoughts got rude, as you talked and chewed On the last of your pick and mix
Said your mistaken if your thinking that I haven′t been caught cold before As you bit into your strawberry lace And then a flip in your attention in the form of a gobstopper Is all you have left and it was going to waste
Your past-times, consisted of the strange And twisted and deranged And I love that little game you had called Crying lightning And how you like to aggravate the ice-cream man on rainy afternoons
The next time that I caught my own reflection It was on it′s way to meet you Thinking of excuses to postpone You never look like yourself from the side But your profile did not hide The fact you knew I was approaching your throne
With folded arms you occupy the bench like toothache Saw them, puff your chest out like you never lost a war And though I try so not to suffer the indignity of a reaction There was no cracks to grasp or gaps to claw
And your past-times, consisted of the strange And twisted and deranged And I hate that little game you had called Crying lightning And how you like to aggravate the icky man on rainy afternoons
Uninviting But not half as impossible as everyone assumes You are crying lightning
Your past-times, consisted of the strange And twisted and deranged And I hate that little game you had called Crying lightning Crying lightning Crying lightning Crying lightning
Your past-times, consisted of the strange And twisted and deranged And I hate that little game you had called Crying
There was a time When I was so broken hearted Love wasn′t much of a friend of mine The tables have turned, yeah ′Cause me and them ways have parted That kind of love was the killin′ kind
Listen, all I want is someone I can′t resist I know all I need to know by the way that I got kissed
I was cryin′ when I met you Now I′m tryin′ to forget you Your love it sweet misery I was cryin′ just to get you Now I′m dyin′ ′cause I let you Do what you do down on me
Now there′s not even breathin′ room Between pleasure and pain Yeah you cry when we′re makin′ love Must be one and the same
It′s down on me Yeah I got to tell you one thing It′s been on my mind Girl, I gotta say We′re partners in crime You got that certain something What you give to me Takes my breath away
Now the word out on the street Is the devil′s in your kiss If our love goes up in flames It′s a fire I can′t resist
I was cryin′ when I met you Now I′m tryin′ to forget you Your love is sweet misery I was cryin′ just to get you Now I′m dyin′ ′cause I let you Do what you do to me
′Cause what you got inside Ain′t where your love should stay Yeah, our love, sweet love, ain′t love ′Til you give your heart away
I was cryin′ when I met you Now I′m tryin′ to forget you Your love is sweet misery I was cryin′ just to get you Now I′m dyin′ just to let you Do what you do what you do down to me, baby, baby, baby...
You′ll end up crying With your mother′s eyes Pretend you can′t see yourself Could have been better Could have been worse You could have been yourself
Brought up in mom′s arms Nowhere to fall Now you′re out climbing Taking it all
You′ll end up crying With your mother′s eyes Suffer that moment′s pain Could have done better Could have done worse Lost in your love for more
Now you′re out climbing And you should know You′ll end up crying Wherever you may go
Brought up in mom′s arms Nowhere to fall Now you′re out climbing Climbing to fall
You′ll end up crying With your mother′s eyes Something is lost from the start Could have been better Could have been worse You′re going to need me there
I′ll never let you see The way my broken heart is hurting me I′ve got my pride and I know how to hide All my sorrow and pain I′ll do my crying in the rain
If I wait for stormy skies You won′t know the rain from the tears in my eyes You′ll never know that I still love you so Though the heartaches remain I′ll do my crying in the rain
Raindrops falling from heaven Could never take away my misery But since we′re not together I pray for stormy weather To hide these tears I hope you′ll never see
Someday when my crying′s done I′m gonna wear a smile and walk in the sun I may be a fool But till then, darling, you′ll never see me complain I′ll do my crying in the rain
I′ll do my crying in the rain I′ll do my crying in the rain I′ll do my crying in the rain
it′s such a tight game will it ever stop ? how will this all play out of sight out of mind now
by now we should know how to communicate instead of coming to blows we′re on the road and there aint no stopping us now we′re burning under control isn′t it strange how we′re all burning under the same sun by now they say if it′s a war for peace it′s the same old game but do we really wanna blame ? we could close our eyes it′s still there we could say it′s us against them we could try but nobody wins gravity has got a hold on us all we could try to put it out but it′s a growing flame using fear as fuel burning down our name and it won′t take too long Words all burn the same And who are we going to blame now and all
it′s such a crying, crying, crying shame it′s such a crying, crying, crying shame it′s such a crying, crying, crying shame shame shame shame
by now it′s beginning to show A number of people are numbers that aren i could close my eyes it′s still there close my mind, be alone i could close my heart and not care but gravity has got a hold on us all
it′s a terrific price to pay but in the true sense of the word are we using what we′ve learned in the true sense of the word are we losing what we were
It will it ever stop ? it′s not for me to say and is it in our blood ? or is it just our fate ? and how will this all play out ? both sides out of my mind now who are we gonna blame all in all ?
it′s just a crying, crying crying shame it′s such a crying, crying crying shame it′s such a crying, crying crying shame shame shame shame
I got all systems go, nothing standing in my way I should be far down the road but I′m not Something′s holding me back like a wild boar attack And I got you by my side but you′re not
Do you remember when we thought there was no end A shooting star around the sky Do you remember when you were from heaven sent How far the wind could make me fly
Angels crying when you′re far away from me Always trying, I will make you see Angels crying (the angels cry) when you′re far away from me No denying (there′s no denying), we were meant to be
I tumbled from the sky where I was soaring so high I never thought that I could fall back down to the ground Somewhere along the ride I found that we can′t stop the tide It′s time for me to buy another round
Do you remember when we thought there was no end A shooting star around the sky Do you remember when you were from heaven sent How far the wind could make me fly
Angels crying when you′re far away from me Always trying, I will make you see Angels crying (the angels cry) when you′re far away from me No denying (there′s no denying), we were meant to be
Angels are crying Angels are crying Angels are crying Yeah
I got all systems go, nothing standing in my way I should be far down the road but I′m not Something′s holding me back like a wild boar attack And I got you by my side but you′re not
Angels crying (the angels cry) when you′re far away from me Always trying (I always try), I will make you see Angels crying (the angels cry) when you′re far away from me No denying (there′s no denying), we were meant to be
See our love is in ruins, who′s said it would, It′s about to vanish without a trace now. We′ve given up the fight, both of us hungry, Hungry for life but not for love. Now that we don′t stand the ghost of a chance To get back together, find romance. If I had the choice to make you feel better, I′d make it better for all times.
Are you crying or is it the rain Falling down to wash away your tears? Are your crying or is it your pain? I see glistening in your eyes. Say you want me to be near, Want those tears to disappear.
See our love light shining through a cloudy day, Make it go away ′cause it′s all pain. Say you want me back, want me to come nearer, Just in case I won′t you′ll be crying. Now that we don′t stand the ghost of a chance To get back together, find romance. If I had the choice to make you feel better, I′d make it better for all times.
