Oh Lord, what’s wrong with me
I can’t seem to be what I wanna be
And it’s not for the sake of tryin’
I tried so hard, God know, and felt like dyin’
And if you’ve been watchin’
You woulda seen me cryin’
So oh Lord, oh Lord
Won’t You give me your hand
Won’t You give me your handThey say „you can do almost anything“
If you really try
But this can’t be right
Cause I tried both day and night
So if I’m doin’ it wrong
Please, won’t You put me right
So oh Lord, oh Lord
Won’t You give me your hand
Won’t You give me your handHope I’m not askin’ too much of You
Don’t like really askin’, but what else can I do
Oh, here I go again, I’m cryin’
The pen that I’m writin’ this with is dyin’
Paper in this book sure took some buyin’, Lord
So oh Lord, oh Lord
Won’t You give me your hand
Won’t You give me your handThink that’s about all I have to say
So if You can do anything to help me find my way
Sure would appreciate you tryin’
‘Cause life’s too short and I don’t wanna spend it cryin’
My ma tells me I’m a fool, but I keep on tryin’, Lord
So oh Lord, oh Lord
Won’t You give me your hand(knock knock)
Someone’s knocking at the door (outside)
Somebody’s ringing the bell (inside)
Someone’s knocking at the door (outside)
Somebody’s ringing the bellIt’s an inside thing (open the door, open the door, open the door)
It’s an inside thing (an inside thing)like rides that only take the tall
The water running down the wall
Your nose is pressed against the glass
You left the club without a pass
They closed the door
You can’t get in
I don’t know where the hell you’ve been
This behaviour isn’t great
Seems to me I’m always late
No matter what you have to say
It’s always me that’s gotta to pay
Your only just a kiss away
You left me here and yes
It’s cold out here
So coldWhen the night comes down
Always get so lonely here
In this old town
You gotta change the atmosphere
If I had wings
I’d fly my body out of here
Cause when you get the feeling
You need a little healing
You just need protection
Loving and affection
(that’s all) Love and affectionOh, Oh, Oh
There’s a ghost outside the window
Oh, Oh , Oh
Don’t know where he’s been
Oh, Oh, Oh
When that old cold wind blows
Open the door and let’em in, oh yeahSomeone’s knocking at the door (outside)
Somebody’s ringing the bell (inside)
Someone’s knocking at the door (outside)
Somebody’s ringing the bellIt’s an inside thing (open the door, open the door, open the door)
It’s an inside thingSome hearts are made of solid gold
And some are magic I’ve been told
But ever time that I’ve been kissed
I’m so aware of all the risks to take
But my bold heart is bare
Cause there’s many things in there
Even when we are miles apart
It doesn’t matter where we are
Cause you and I knew from the start
The answer lives within the heart
So why are you looking so suprised
You know where the truth survives
Spread your wings (spread your wings, let us sing)When you see my face
Better look behind my eyes
Cause I don’t show
Everything I feel inside
Sometimes boy
I’ve been known to wear disguise
When I get the feeling
I need a little healing
I might need protection
Loving and affection (love and affection)Oh, Oh, Oh
Ghost outside the window
Oh, Oh , Oh
Don’t know where he’s been
Oh, Oh, Oh
When that old cold wind blows
Open the door, let’em in, oh yeah yeahSomeone’s knocking at the door (outside)
Someone’s ringing the bell (inside)
Someone’s knocking at the door (outside)
Someone’s ringing the bellIt’s an inside thing (open the door, open the door, open the door)
It’s an inside thingOh, no, no, babe
I ain’t gonna ride
I ain’t gonna run
No, no, no babe
I ain’t gonna use a gun
You should know babe
When all is said and done
You could be the one
And maybe sometimes we could even have some fun
Oh yeahWell if I knock knock on the door
You gotta let me in
And if I tap tap on the window
Even if it’s in
I wanna hip hop all night
You know how old cool boo
With Paul Mac and Lulu
Shouting at the new school
Bringing in the new cools
For students that were tardy
So were fine
Bring your fellows
Cause were having a party
Outside it’s getting funky
So let me bring
The moral here “Make it an inside thing”Someone’s knocking at the door (Outside)
Somebody’s ringing the bell (inside)

Somebody’s ringing the bellIt’s an inside thing (open the door, open the door, open the door)
It’s an inside thingYeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Someone’s knocking at the door door
(it’s an inside thing)
Somebody’s ringing the bell
Somebody’s knocking at the door, now, now
Somebody’s ringing the bell
Ring-ding-ding-ding-a-ding-ding-ding
Ringing the bell
That’ll be himpaul Mccartney
Have you seen the old man
In the closed-down market
Kicking up the paper,
with his worn out shoes?
In his eyes you see no pride
And held loosely at his side
Yesterday’s paper telling yesterday’s newsSo how can you tell me you’re lonely,
And say for you that the sun don’t shine?
Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London
I’ll show you something to make you change your mindHave you seen the old girl
Who walks the streets of London
Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags?
She’s no time for talking,
She just keeps right on walking
Carrying her home in two carrier bags.Chorus
In the all night cafe
At a quarter past eleven,
Same old man is sitting there on his own
Looking at the world
Over the rim of his tea-cup,
Each tea last an hour
Then he wanders home aloneChorus
And have you seen the old man
Outside the seaman’s mission
Memory fading with
The medal ribbons that he wears.
In our winter city,
The rain cries a little pity
For one more forgotten hero
And a world that doesn’t careBut I got an emptiness deep inside
And I’ve tried, but it won’t let me go
And I’m not a man who likes to swear
But I never cared for the sound of being alone“I am,” I said
To no one there
An no one heard at all
Not even the chair
“I am,” I cried
“I am,” said I
And I am lost, and I can’t even say why
Leavin’ me lonely stillHere’s a song
It reminds me of when we were young
Looking back at all the things we’ve done
You gotta keep on keepin’ onOut to sea
Is the only place I honestly
Can get myself some peace of mind
You know it’s getting hard to flyIf I’m to fall
Would you be there to applaud
Or would you hide behind them all?
‘Cos If I am to go
In my heart you grow
And that’s where you belongIf I’m to fall
Would you be there to applaud
Or would you hide behind them all?
‘Coz If I am to go
In my heart you grow
And that’s where you belongIf I’m to fall
Would you be there to applaud
Or would you hide behind them all?
‘Coz If I am to go
In my heart you grow
And that’s where you belongYes I’m outta time
I’m outta time
I’m outta time
I’m outta time
I’m outta timedarling stop confusing me
with your wishful thinking
hopeful enbraces
don’t you understand?
i have to go through this
i belong to here where
no-one cares and no-one loves
no light no air to live in
a place called hate
the city of feari play dead
it stops the hurting
i play dead
and hurting stopsit’s sometimes just like sleeping
curling up inside my private tortures
i nestle into pain
hug suffering
caress every achei play dead
it stops the hurtingHow can you see into my eyes like open doors?
Leading you down into my core where I’ve become so numb
Without a soul, my spirit sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back homeWake me up
(Wake me up inside)
I can’t wake up
(Wake me up inside)
Save me
(Call my name and save me from the dark)Wake me up
(Bid my blood to run)
I can’t wake up
(Before I come undone)
Save me
(Save me from the nothing I’ve become)Now that I know what I’m without
You can’t just leave me
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to lifeWake me up
(Wake me up inside)
I can’t wake up
(Wake me up inside)
Save me
(Call my name and save me from the dark)Wake me up
(Bid my blood to run)
I can’t wake up
(Before I come undone)
Save me
(Save me from the nothing I’ve become)I’ve been living a lie
There’s nothing inside
Bring me to lifeFrozen inside without your touch
Without your love, darling
Only you are the life among the deadAll this time, I can’t believe I couldn’t see
Kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
I’ve been sleeping a thousand years it seems
Got to open my eyes to everythingWithout thought, without voice, without a soul
Don’t let me die here
There must be something more
Bring me to lifeWake me up
(Wake me up inside)
I can’t wake up
(Wake me up inside)
Save me
(Call my name and save me from the dark)Wake me up
(Bid my blood to run)
I can’t wake up
(Before I come undone)
Save me
(Save me from the nothing I’ve become)I’ve been living a lie
There’s nothing inside
Bring me to lifeVery superstitious, writing’s on the wall
Very superstitious, ladders bout’ to fall
Thirteen month old baby, broke the lookin’ glass
Seven years of bad luck, the good things in your pastWhen you believe in things that you don’t understand
Then you suffer
Superstition ain’t the wayVery superstitious, wash your face and hands
Rid me of the problem, do all that you can
Keep me in a daydream, keep me goin’ strong
You don’t wanna save me, sad is my songWhen you believe in things that you don’t understand
Then you suffer
Superstition ain’t the way, yeh, yehVery superstitious, nothin’ more to say
Very superstitious, the devil’s on his way
Thirteen month old baby, broke the lookin’ glass
Seven years of bad luck, good things in your pastWhen you believe in things that you don’t understand
Then you suffer
Superstition ain’t the way, no, no, noWould you dance if I asked you to dance?
Would you run and never look back
Would you cry if you saw me crying
Would you save my soul tonight?Would you tremble if I touched your lips?
Would you laugh oh please tell me these
Now would you die for the one you love?
Hold me in your arms tonight?
