Father comes home 'cos his money's run out -
seems a little loose tonight, he starts to shout.
Dinner's not on the...
Sometimes I lie awake, wondering if I'll make it out of here,
but the wind blows round my heels, so I stay
I remember lying...
She came looking for me with her arms open wide,
like some long lost friend of mine.
She said 'Excuse me, but do you...
It's in your eyes,
the love you hide away.
You can't disguise
the things you feel, the thing you say
If...
You oughta know by now
that a man can't hold on forever,
so why do you keep waiting here
when you know it makes me want...
Seems I've lingered too long in the darkness
unlock the door, turn the light on and wait.
I should know better than to rest on...
When the daylight comes and I look across the room,
I see you're gone.
As the morning breaks and I reach to hold your hand...
If we can cross at the place that divides us.
cross the river, the river so wide,
if we can smother the pain that's inside...
Well it's a long, long road when you're out there alone,
no matter what side you're on,
but there's a heart of gold behind the...
Come gather 'round people wherever you roam,
and admit that the waters around you have grown,
and accept it that soon you'll be...

When I saw him last
he had that look in his eyes
I said, \"Do you need to talk?\"
he said, \"No.\"
So I called him up, asked him again and I waited a while -
he began to speak, then he started to cry
You know some things are best left unspoken
and some things just never work out
and sometimes, seems you try and you try and whatever you do
There's a fix that you're in, and you just can't get out
he said, \"I need your help, I need it now
Give me the strength to go on\"
Though I didn't know what
I knew that something was wrong
but he still had his pride
he'd tell me in time
Well this feeling inside
kept eating at me
I was losing a friend, and I had to know why
When I heard the voice on the phone, I knew it was bad news
so I rushed to be by his side
and we said goodbye for the last time
I gently hugged him, and kissed him goodbye
he whispered, \"I need your help, I need it now
Give me the strength to go on.\"
We were always laughing
I just remember laughing, mama
We were always laughing
Oh I need your help, I need it now
Give me the strength to go on
Though as time goes by, and it all becomes clear
we can see the deceit, we see the lies
So I asked myself, over and over, and over again
What did they know? What did they hide?
Fools, leading the innocent blindly
Fools, turning away
And I know that
when I think of my friend with that look in his eyes
and if they told the truth, he might be here today
I need your help, I need it now
Just give me the strength to go on, on
I remember the laughing
We were always laughing
Oh no - it's just strength we need now
Just the strength to go on...
