ONE
OF US
(Joan
Osborne)
If God had a name, what
would it be
And would you call it to
His face
If you were faced with Him
in all His glory
What would you ask if you
had just one question.
Yeah, yeah, God is great
Yeah, yeah, God is good
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah.
What if God was one of us
Just a slob like one of
us
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make His way home.
If God had a face, what would
it look like
Andwould you want to see
If seeing meant that you
would have to believe
In things like Heaven and
in Jesus and the Saints
And all the Prophets and...
Yeah, yeah, God is great
Yeah, yeah, God is good
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah.
What if God was one of us
Just naa slob like one of
us
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make His way home.
Tryin'to make His way home
Back up to Heaven all alone
Nobody callin'on the phone
'Cept for the Pope maybe
in Rome.
Yeah, yeah, God is great
Yeah, yeah, God is good
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah.
What if God was one of us
Just a slob like one of
us
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make His way home.
Just tryin'to make his way
home. |
ST.
TERESA
(Joan
Osborne)
Sit down on the corner,
just a little climb
When I make money, got to
get my dime
Sit down whit her baby,
wind is full of trash
she bold as the street light,
dark and sweet as hash.
Way down in the hollow, leavin'so
soon
Oh,St.Teresa, higher than
the moon.
Reach down for the sweet
stuff, when she looks at me
I know any man sees you
like I see
Follow down the side street
moving'single file
She say...
That's where I'll hold you,
sleeping like a child
Way down in the hollow, leavin'so
soon
Oh, St.Teresa, higher than
the moon.
Jus what I've been needin',
feel it rise in me
She say...
Every stone a story, like
a rosary
Cornet St. Teresa, Just
a little crime
When i make my money, got
to get my dime
Way down in the hollow, leavin'so
soon
Oh, St.Teresa, higher than
the moon.
You called up in the sky
you called up in the clouds
Is there something you forgot
to tellme...
tell me, tell me, tell me,
tell me, tell me.
Show me my Teresa, feel it
rise in me
Every stone a story, like
a rosary. |
UNIVERSE
(Savage
Garden)
Well I'd like to take you
as I find you
Imagine our clothes are
on the floor
Feel my caress so soft and
gentle
So delicate you cry for
more
But you know baby
You know baby does it right
And you know baby does it
right
Universe inside of your
heart
You gotta let me know so
you can be free baby
You wanted it so much, and
now that it's over
You don't know what you
want
Put time in a capsule
Two minds consensual
Entwined to perfection
If we could...
Cuddle up close
Lay your head on my chest
now
Listen my heart beat's coming
down
If you get tired you close
your eyes now
When you wake up I won't
be found
'Cause I know baby I know
you're the nervous kind
With so much going on in
your mind
Universe inside your heart
You gotta let me know so
you can be free baby
You wanted it so much, and
now that it's over
You don't know what you
want
But let me tell you that,
this time,
I'm going to make you mine
(I won't let you go)
'Cause I know, this time
I'm going to make sure I look out for me
'Cause I know baby
Well you know baby does
it right
And you know baby does it
right
You will only end up lost
in loneliness
And wake up with the words
already in your lips
So I'll let you go, baby
So I'll let you go...
Universe inside your heart
You gotta let me know so
you can be free baby
You wanted it so much, and
now that it's over
You don't know what you
want... |
TWO
BEDS AND A COFFEE MACHINE
(Savage
Garden)
And she takes another step
Slowly she opens the door
Check that he is sleeping
Pick up all the broken glass
and furniture on the floor
Been up half the night screaming
now it's time to get away
Pack up the kids in the
car
Another bruise to try and
hide
Another alibi to write
Another ditch in the road
You keep moving
Another stop sign
You keep moving on
And the years go by so fast
Wonder how I ever made it
through
And there are children to
think of
Baby's asleep in the backseat
Wonder how they'll ever
make it through this living nightmare
But the mind is an amazing
thing
Full of candy dreams and
new toys and another cheap hotel
Two beds and a coffee machine
But there are groceries
to buy
And she knows she'll have
to go home
Another ditch in the road
You keep moving
Another stop sign
You keep moving on
And the years go by so fast
Wonder how I ever made it
through
Another bruise to try and
hide
Another alibi to write
Another lonely highway in
the black of night
But there's hope in the
darkness
You know you're going to
make it
Another ditch in the road
Keep moving
Another stop sign
You keep moving on
And the years go by so fast
Silent fortress built to
last
Wonder how I ever made it. |
