Once upon a time you and I
When we were dreaming easy
Fresh as limes and happy as a Sunday sky
There was nothing we could sell or buy
‘Cause all we really needed
Was our bare feet and a pair of wings to fly

What do you think, darling?
Have we lived too much, too fast?
And have you
Have you felt melancholy, darling
Wishing that time hadn’t passed?

Can you tell me how it used to be?
Have we missed our chance?
Have we changed our hopes for fears
And our dreams for plans?

Can you tell me how it used to be
When we really cared?
And when love was on our side
On our side…

I remember all the times before
When we could spend our evening
Staring at the ceiling, lying on the floor
My vocabulary wasn’t broad
I spoke so little English
And the words transferred
Sound like something odd

What do you think, darling?
Have I lived too much, too fast?
And have you
Have you felt the melancholy, darling
Wishing that time hadn’t passed?

Can you tell me how it used to be?
Have we missed our chance?
Have we changed our hopes for fears
And our dreams for plans?
Can you tell me how it used to be
When we really cared?
And when love was on our side
On our side…

What is your guess, darling?
Have I lived too much, too fast?
So if you
If you ever come and find me crying
Now you know
Now you know why

Can you tell me how I used to be?
Have I missed my chance?
Have I changed my hopes for fears
And my dreams for plans?
Can you tell me how it used to be
When we really cared?
And when love was on our side
On our side…

Why do all my friends
Now want to be your lovers?
Your family got bigger
When they thought you were rich

And now like maniacs
They scratch your back
Even when it doesn’t itch

I want to figure it all
I want to figure it all out
I want to save you from
Save you from all the fame
Save you from the things that cause us pain

‘Cause it’s an animal city
It’s a cannibal world
So be obedient, don’t argue
Some are ready to fight you

It’s an animal city
It’s a cannibal world
So be obedient, don’t argue
Some are ready to fight you
My love

They believe you now
Have everything you wanted
And once you have become a star
You got no right to bitch

But someday when you fail
They’ll put you on sale
And buy you by the inch

But you’re the real deal
And “real” is your middle name
You know sometimes I feel
I gotta earn every breath you take
Baby, never mind the rules we break

‘Cause it’s an animal city
It’s a cannibal world
So be obedient, don’t argue
Some are ready to bite you

It’s an animal city
It’s a cannibal world
So be obedient, don’t argue
Some are ready rip you right off

With you I feel safe
There’s nothing to fear from us
Away from the fangs
The fangs of the world
I may be a coward but you are brave
And nothing seems so dangerous

‘Cause it’s an animal city
It’s a cannibal world
So be obedient, don’t argue
Some are ready to bite you

It’s an animal city
It’s a cannibal world
So be obedient, don’t argue
Some are ready rip you right off

Cannibal world
Cannibal world
Cannibal world
Cannibal world

So be obedient, don’t argue
Some are ready to bite you
My love

Who’s to say that we always have to agree
I think we both can take this one mistake
Like some kind of amnesty

Why to love and with such brutality?
We’re compatible
Maybe a bit too much
That’s our ambiguity

I’ve cried a thousand storms
I’ve blown away the clouds
The heartbeat of the sun is racing mine
I’m reaching out
My heart is waiting

This is the day and the time
I wanna believe that we may still have a chance
We took a leap in the dark
And I can see now
How shadows have turned to light

Well, we know
How ephemeral are things
Disillusion takes what illusion gives
What’s the use of make believe?

The needles of the clock
Are moving right to left
Pretend we never heard of things we said
Like we’ve been dead
And start all over

This is the day and the time
I wanna believe that we may still have a chance
We took a leap in the dark
And I can see now
How shadows have turned to light

Ah…

The heartbeat of the sun is racing mine
I’m missing out

Ah…

This is the day and the time
I wanna believe that we may still have a chance
We took a leap in the dark
And I can see now
How shadows have turned to light

Ahhh…

The time

Who would have thought that you could hurt me
The way you’ve done it
So deliberate, so determined

Since you have been gone
I bite my nails for days and hours
And question my own questions on and on

Tell me now, tell me now
Why you’re so far away
When I’m still so close

You don’t even know the meaning of the words I’m sorry
You said you would love me until you die
As far as I know you’re still alive
Baby
You don’t even know the meaning of the words I’m sorry
I’m starting to believe it should be illigal to deceive a woman’s heart

I tried so hard to be attentive
To all you wanted always supportive always patient
What did I do wrong?
I’m wondering for days and hours
it’s here, it isn’t here where you belong

Anyhow, Anyhow
I wish you both all the best
I hope you get along

She’s got the kind of look that defies gravity
She’s the greatest cook
And she’s fat free

She’s been to private school
And she speaks perfect French
She’s got the perfect friends
Oh isn’t she cool

She practices Tai Chi
She’d never lose her nerve
She’s more than you deserve
She’s just far better than me

Hey Hey

So Don’t Bother
I won’t die of deception
I promise you won’t ever see me cry
Don’t feel sorry

And Don’t Bother
I’ll be fine
But she’s waiting
The ring you gave to her will lose its shine
So Don’t Bother, be unkind

I’m sure she doesn’t know
How to touch you like I would
I beat her at that one good
Don’t you think so?

She’s almost 6 feet tall
She must think I’m a flea
I’m really a cat you see
And it’s not my last life at all

Hey Hey

So Don’t Bother
I won’t die of deception
I promise you won’t ever see me cry
Don’t feel sorry

Don’t Bother
I’ll be fine
But she’s waiting
The ring you gave to her will lose its shine
So don’t bother, be unkind

For you, I’d give up all I own
And move to a communist country
If you came with me, of course
And I’d file my nails so they don’t hurt you
And lose those pounds, and learn about football
If it made you stay, but you won’t, but you won’t

So Don’t Bother,
I’ll be fine, I’ll be fine, I’ll be fine, I’ll be fine
Promise you won’t ever see me cry

And after all I’m glad that I’m not your type
Promise you won’t ever see me cry

Don’t bother,
I’ll be fine, I’ll be fine, I’ll be fine, I’ll be fine
Promise you won’t ever see me cry

And after all I’m glad that I’m not your type
Promise you won’t ever see me cry

Forgive us our trespasses
As we forgive those who have trespassed against us
Give us this day our daily bread,
Daily bread, daily bread

In cello et in terra fiat voluntas tua
Gloria Espirituí Sancto

What language do you speak
If you speak at all?
Are you some kind of freak,
Who lives to raise the ones who fall?

Hey, would you tell me why
The cat fights the dog?
Do you go to the mosque
Or the synagogue?

And if our fates have all been wrapped around your finger
And if you wrote the script then why the trouble makers?

How do you do?
How does it feel to be so high
And are you happy?
Do you ever cry?

… I sometimes cry …

You’ve made mistakes
Well that’s OK ’cause we all have
But if I forgive yours
Will you forgive mine?

Hey, do you feel our pain
And walk in our shoes?
Have you ever felt starved
Or is your belly always full?

How many people die
And hurt in your name?
Hey, does that make you proud
Or does it bring you shame?

And if our fates have all been wrapped around your finger
And if you wrote the script then why the troublemakers?

How do you do?
How does it feel to be so high
And are you happy?
Do you ever cry?

… I sometimes cry …

You’ve made mistakes
Well that’s OK ’cause we all have
But if I forgive yours
Will you forgive mine?

Forgive us our trespasses
As we forgive those who have trespassed against us
… Mehila …
Give us this day our daily bread
… Mehila …
Daily bread
… Mehila …
Daily bread
… Mehila …

Forgive us our trespasses
As we forgive those who have trespassed against us
… Mehila …
Give us this day our daily bread
… Mehila ….
Daily bread
Daily bread
Thine is the Kingdom and the Power and the Glory
Amen!

How do you do?
How does it feel to be so high
And are you happy?
Do you ever cry?

… I sometimes cry …

You’ve made mistakes
Well that’s OK ’cause we all have
And if I forgive yours
Will you forgive mine?

… Will you forgive mine? …

How do you do?
How does it feel to be so high
And are you happy?
Do you ever cry?

… I sometimes cry …

You’ve made mistakes
And that’s OK ’cause we all have
But if I forgive yours
Will you forgive mine…?
