1.
I was born on Sunday afternoon With a tambourine and choir out of tune On a bright and sunny day Not yet knowing how to pray Don't worry boy, we'll teach you today I was born with a plastic spoon in my mouth The rear church pew as quiet as a mouse Comprehending all their words Not believing what I heard Quiet boy, you've so much to learn
2.
All the love that's in your heart All the joy that's in your soul Somehow you share it with the world But it never takes its toll All the magic in your mind All the beauty that's inside Somehow you give it all around but still you keep it in your life Won't you break it to me now if all these things are never what they seem Won't you break it to me gently now if you're not the woman of my dreams Cos you're the woman of my dreams.
3.
I lost my childhood in a sea of fun In an island of innocent, trying to do no wrong I lost my memories and my chance to belong Thinking there was a higher way, a connection went wrong Where are you my god I lost my believing in an island of 'love' Trying to search for something, escape my guilt and numb

Hope To Die 03:19
When the life you know is token, it's a way All the love we show unspoken, we can play Cross your heart and hope to die Needles in your eye Kiss the girls and make them cry Everything you do It all comes back to you Tell me what's the use All the thoughts we make inside our head can pierce the world Cautions that we take, keep believing like boys and girls

John Francis 02:28
I was born in a country not well known by some people in a place I now call home I live nearby the water All my sons and daughters now have sons and daughters of their own I travelled with the love of my life, Doreen, the girl I made my wife With us and God before, when mormans knock my door, you gotta know there's gonna be some strife
6.
I never start a fight I never know just how to make thing right I'm never in the light Always creeping off into the night It get so lonely on my own It gets so lonely all alone I never break a nail I don't want you to see it as a fail I won't admit abuse I don't want you to take it as an excuse
