Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me

George Michael - Ladies and Gentlemen

 

I can't light
no more of your darkness
All my pictures
seem to fade to black and white     
I'm growing tired
and time stands still before me
Frozen here
on the ladder of my life

It's much too late
to save myself from falling
I took a chance
and changed your way of life
But you misread
my meaning when I met you
Closed the door
and left me blinded me by the light

Don't let the sun go down on me
Although I search myself,      
it's always someone else I see
I'd just allow a fragment of your life
to wander free
But losing everything
is like the sun going down on me

Ladies and Gentlemen Mr. Elton John

I can't find
Oh, the right romantic line
But see me once
and see the way feel
Don't discard me (baby don't)
Just because you think I mean your harm 
(Just because you think I mean your harm, oh)
But these cuts I have, cuts I have
They need love 
(They need love, they need love)
to help them heal

Oh, Don't let the sun   go down on me
Although I search myself,
it's always someone else I see
I'd just allow a fragment of your life
to wander free
Cause' losing everything
is like the sun going down on me

Don't let the sun go down on me
Although I search myself,
it's always someone else I that see, yeah
I'd just allow a fragment of your life
to wander free baby oh
Cause' losing everything       
is like the sun going down on me

Mr. Elton John

I Can't Make You Love Me

George Michael - Ladies and Gentlemen

 

Turn down the lights, turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head
Lay down with me, tell me no lies
Just hold me close, don't patronize
Don't patronize me

'Cause I can't make you love me If you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark in these final hours
I will lay down my heart, and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
And I can't make you love me
If you don't

I'll close my eyes and then I won't see
The love you do not feel, when you're holding me
Morning will come, and I'll do what's right
Just give me till then, to give up this fight
And I will give up this fight

And I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
And here in the dark in these final hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no, you won't
And I can't make you love me
If you don't

Ain't no use in you trying
It's no good for me baby without love
All my tears, all these years, everything I believed in
Baby
Oh yeah
Someone's gonna love me

Desafinado (English)

George Michael - Ladies and Gentlemen

 

If you say my singing is off key, my love
You would hurt my feelings, don't you see, my love ?
I wish I had an ear like yours,
A voice that would behave
All I have is feeling
And the voice God gave

You insist my music goes against the rules
Yes, but rules were never made for lovesick fools
I wrote this song for you
But you don't care
It's a crooked song, ah,
But my heart is there

The thing that you would see if you would play the part
Is even if I'm out of tune I have a gentle heart
I took your picture with my trusty Rolliflex
And now all I have developed is complex

Possibly in vain, I hope you weaken, oh my love
And forget those rigid rules that undermine my dream of
A life of love and music with someone who'll understand

That even though I may be out of tune when I attempt to say
How much I love you
And all that matters is the message that I bring,
Which is: my dear one, I love you

Desafinado (Portoguese)

George Michael - Ladies and Gentlemen

 

Se você disser que eu desafino amor
Saiba que isto em mim provoca imensa dor
Só previlegiados têm ouvido igual ao seu
Eu possuo apenas o que Deus me deu

Se você insiste em classificar
Como o meu comportamento de anti-musical
Não lhes vou mentir, até vou comentar
Que isso é bossa-nova
Que isso é muito natural
Que você não sabe nem sequer pressente
É que os desafinados também têm um coração

Fotografei você na minha role-flix
Revelou-se a sua enorme ingratidão

Só não poderá falar assim do meu amor
Que é o maior que você pode encontrar
Você passou a musica e esqueceu o principal
Que no peito dos desafinados
No fundo do peito bate calado
No peito dos desafinados também bate um coração

A Moment With You

George Michael - Ladies and Gentlemen

 

(you can't keep holding it in when it's something good)

hey this won't take much time
we won't touch, we'll just wait for signs
and nothing was futher from my mind
than this moment with you

but if you'd only told me baby
I would have made some other plans
if I'd only seen it sooner
but what away with your hands you had
I wanted that moment with you

I know that is wrong
but "if you need me, I'm here", turns me on
I can't help thinking its a miracle you're here
I can't help thinking its a miracle

say, don't waste much time
we don't touch, do we baby?
but still my hands are tied
for that moment with you

but if you'd only told me baby
I would have made some other plans
if I'd only seen it sooner
but what away with your hands you had
I wanted that moment with you

you know that I'm strong
and I've no reason to fear, am I wrong?
I can't help thinking its a miracle you're here
I can't help thinking its a miracle
I can't help thinking its a american
I can't help thinking its a miracle
I can't help thinking its a miracle you're here

you can't keep holding it in when it's something good
get up, get up
you can't keep holding it in when it's something good
get up, get up

and who can you trust? dealing out justice
with a minimum of fuss
who baby
dealing out justice...

Waltz Away Dreaming

George Michael - Ladies and Gentlemen

 

She's got a song in her head and she'll sing to me,
She's got a laugh that reminds me of why she's in love with me,
She'd never let show she was lonely in case it had frightened me,
She was carpet and stone, independent, alone,
But her love always shone around me,
Every time...

Waltz away dreaming till your day begins again,
Free from the seasons and this state I'm in,
And oh, I can't hold it all under one love,
It was so long ago when we kissed in the streets,
Now you fly like an eagle above,
While I waltz away anyway,
I'll be waltzing my days away,
Searching for this woman I love.

She had a history of joy and pain in time,
And she chose to leave,
She had a thousand and one photographs,
That you would not believe,
She'll come to you in disguise,
She's there in your children's eyes,
Still our mother...
She' still your wife,
(So let her...)

Waltz away dreaming till your day begins again
Free from the reasons for this state I'm in,
And oh, (trust me, she ain't going anywhere)
I can't hold it all under one love,
(Trust me, she told me, when you're ready she'll be there)
It was so long ago, (no don't let go of her)
When we kissed in the streets,
Now you fly like an eagle above,
While I waltz away anyway,
I'll be waltzing my days away,
Searching for this woman I love.

And the moment you see me
I will live in your life
We will walk through my garden
I will see through your eyes,
I was in despair 'till she found me there,
Every grown man cries with his mother's eyes,
And when you're ready too,
She'll come back to you,
She's waiting,
Father...
She's waiting.

Outside

George Michael - Ladies and Gentlemen

 

I think I'm done with the sofa
I think I'm done with the hall
I think I'm done with the kitchen table, baby

let's go outside (let's go outside)
in the sunshine
I know you want to, but you can't say yes
Let's go outside
in the moonshine
take me to the places that I love best

So my angel she says, don't you worry
'bout the things they're saying, yeah
got no friends in high places
and the game that you gave away
wasn't worth playing

let's go outside
in the sunshine
I know you want to, but you can't say yes
let's go outside
in the meantime
take me to the places that I love best

and yes I've been bad
doctor won't you do with me what you can
you see I think about it all the time
twenty four seven

you say you want it, you got it
I never really said it before
there s nothing here but flesh and bone
there's nothing more nothing more
there's nothing more

back to nature, just human nature
getting on back to

I think I m done with the sofa
I think I m done with the hall
I think I'm done with the kitchen table, baby

let's go outside
in the sunshine
I know you want to, but you can't say yes
let's go outside
in the moonshine
take me to the places that I love best

and yes I've been bad
doctor won't you do with me what you can
you see I think about it all the time
I'd service the community
(but I already have you see!)
I never really said it before

there's nothing here but flesh and bone
there's nothing more, nothing more
there's nothing more
let's go outside
dancing on the D-train baby

when the moon is high
and the grass is jumpin'
come on, just keep on funkin'
keep on funkin', just keep on funkin'

As

George Michael - Ladies and Gentlemen

 

As around the sun the Earth knows she's revolving
And the rosebuds know to bloom in early May
Just as hate knows love's the cure
You can rest your mind assure
That I'll be loving you always

As now can't reveal the mystery of tomorrow
But in passing will grow older every day
Just as all is born is new
Do you know what I say is true
That I'll be loving you always

Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
Until the day that 8x8x8 is 4
Until the day is the day that are no more

Did you know that true love asks for nothing
Her acceptance is the way we pay
Did you know that life has given love a guarantee
To last through forever and another day

As today I know I'm living but tomorrow
Could make me the past
but that I mustn't fear
I know deep in my mind
The love of me I've left behind
Cause I'll be loving you always

Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea
Until we dream of live and live becomes a dream
Until the day is night and night becomes the day
Until the trees and seas just up and fly away
Until the day that 8x8x8 is 4
Until the day that is the day that are no more

did you know that true love asks for nothing
her acceptance is the way we pay
did you know that life has given love a guarantee
to last through forever and another day

As around the sun the earth knows she's revolving
and the rosebuds know to bloom in early May
for now I know deep in my mind
the love of me I've left behind
cause I'll be loving you always

Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea
Until we dream of live and live becomes a dream

Until the day is night and night becomes the day
Until the trees and seas just up and fly away
Until the day that 8X8X8 is 4
Until the day that is the day that are no more

George Michael - Ladies and Gentlemen

 

Hey, you're just too funky for me,
I gotta get inside of you,
And I'll show you heaven if you let me.
Hey you just too funky for me,

Star People '97

George Michael - Ladies and Gentlemen

 

Star people
Counting your money until your soul turns green
Star people
Counting the cost of your desire to be seen

I do not count myself among you
I may have been living in a dream
It's just there seem so many of you
Can't help but hope there's a difference between

And if I live to be a hundred and one
I will never understand what you are, honey?

I'm looking for sympathy
Just get me on NBC
And where's the hell's my dumb ass PR?

I said maybe your mama gave you up boy
(it's the same old same old)
I said maybe your daddy didn't love you enough girl
(how much is enough)

Star people
Never forget your secret's safe with me
Just look at all the wonderful people
Trying to forget just who and what they have been

Oh, it's a dream
With a nightmare stuck in the middle
Are you serious? I'm just curious
Without all this attention
You'd die
I'd die
We'd die (wouldn't we baby)

And if I live to be a hundred and one
I will never understand what you are (I'm talking to you)
You're looking for sympathy from people who work to eat
And they don't really seem to mind

I said maybe your mama gave you up boy
(it's the same old same old)
I said maybe  baby your daddy didn't love you enough girl

How much is enough?
How much is enough?
How much is enough?
Are you serious? I'm just curious
Are you serious? I'm just curious

Yeah more glycerine
Let's go back to the day
DJ (why do you wanna tell me that?)
DJ (get yourself some Oprah cash)
Is that what makes a star?

Did you get off on a bad foot, baby
Do you have a little tale to tell
Did you get off on a bad foot, bad, bad foot?
Is that why you're a star?

Do you really think you've got it so hard?
Do you think it might do you some good to look around you
And decide how you might feel
If the pain you felt was real
Tell me

Now nothing comes for nothing, baby
That fame and fortune's heaven sent
And who gives a fuck about your problems, darling
'cos you can pay the rent
You can pay

Fantasy

George Michael - Ladies and Gentlemen

 

One day you say you love me
The next you tell me you don't
One day you say you will
And the next you tell me you won't
Hey little baby
There ain't much point in hanging around (Yea).
One day you make me feel like your love is in my hands
One day you say you'll stay
The next you're changing your plans
Hey little baby
Ain't much point in hanging around (Yea).
Cause' if you ain't got time for me I'll find another Fantasy.

It is kind of funny that you think that
I am the boy to make you cry
I can make you happy
If only for a while
Little baby I can give you all the loving that your heart desires
If you ain't got time for me I'll find another Fantasy.

It could be the price of love
Could the price of hate
What am I guilty of
Why do you make me wait
So long I don't know your intentions.
Look to the sky's above
I am in the hands of fate
Push till it gets to shove
I have got to know for heavens sake
Is this love or invention
Baby can't you see I'll find another Fantasy.

You hang around with people who are sure to make you cry
I can make you happy if only for a while
Little baby oh, oh little baby
I can give you all the lovin' that your heart desires
If you ain't got time for me I'll find another Fantasy.

You take someone's heart
And you kick it around
Keep on picking it up
So you can watch it come down
I don't know what I am suppose to do
Why I wait for you to make up your mind
Would you please be so kind
When you know what to do I'll be in the next room
But if you make it to late I may be in the next day
Hmm...

I Knew You Were Waiting For Me

George Michael - Ladies and Gentlemen

 

Like a warrior that fights
And wins the battle
I know the taste of victory
Though I went through some nights
Consumed by the shadows
I was crippled emotionally
Somehow I made it through the heartache
Yes I did, I escaped
I found my way out of the darkness,
Kept my faith (I know you did)
Kept my faith

When the river was deep I didn´t falter
When the mountain was high I still believed
When the valley was low iIt didn´t stop me, no no
I knew you were waiting
I knew you were waiting for me

With and endless desire I kept on searching
Sure in time our eyes would meet
Like the bridge is on fire
The hurt is over, one touch and you set me free
No, I don´t regret a single moment
No I don't looking back
When I think of all those disappointments
I just laugh (I know you do), I just laugh

When the river was deep I didn´t falter
When the mountain was high I still believed
When the valley was low iIt didn´t stop me, no no
I knew you were waiting
I knew you were waiting for me

So we were drawn together through destiny
I know this love we share was meant to be
I knew you were waiting, knew you were waiting
I knew you were waiting, knew you were waiting for me

Somebody To Love

George Michael - Ladies and Gentlemen

 

can anybody find me
somebody to love?
each morning I get up I die a little
can't barely stand on my feet

take a look in the mirror and cry
Lord, what you're doing to me
I have spent all my years in believing you
but I just can't get no relief, Lord
somebody, somebody

can anybody find me someone to love
I work hard everyday of my life
I work till I ache my bones

at the end I take home my
hard earned pay all of my own
I get down on my knees and I start to pray
'til the tears run down from my eyes, Lord

somebody, somebody
can anybody find me somebody to love
everyday I try and I try
but everybody want to put me down

they say I'm goin' crazy
they say I got a lot of water in my brain
got no common sense
I got nobody to believe

yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh, somebody
somebody can anybody find me
somebody to love

got no feel, I got no rhythm
I just keep losing my beat
I'm OK, I'm alright
ain't gonna face no defeat

I just got to get out of this prison cell
one day I'm gonna be free, Lord
find me somebody to love
find me somebody to love
find me somebody to love
find me somebody to love
find me somebody to love
find me somebody to love
find me somebody to love
find me somebody to love
find me somebody to love
somebody, somebody, somebody, somebody
