Misguided

i said mama, he's crazy and he scares me
but i want him by my side
though he's wild and he's bad
and sometimes just plain mad
i need him to keep me satisfied

i said papa, don't cry 'cause it's alright
and i see you in some of his ways
though he might not give me the life that you wanted
i'll love him the rest of my days

misguided angel hangin over me
heart like a gabriel, pure and white as ivory
soul like a lucifer, black and cold like a piece of lead
misguided angel, love you til i'm dead

i said brother, you speak to me of passion
you said never to settle for nothing less
well, it's in the way he walks
it's in the way he talks
his smile, his anger and his kisses

Angel

i said sister, don't you understand?
he's all i ever wanted in a man
i'm tired of sittin' around the t.v. every night
hoping i'm finding a mr. right

misguided angel hangin over me
heart like a gabriel, pure and white as ivory
soul like a lucifer
black and cold like a piece of lead
misguided angel, love you til i'm dead

he says baby, don't listen to what they say
there comes a time when you have to break away
he says baby there are things we all cling to all our life
it's time to let them go and become my wife

misguided angel hangin over me
heart like a gabriel, pure and white as ivory
soul like a lucifer
black and cold like a piece of lead
misguided angel, love you til i'm dead

Fascinação

os sonhos mais lindos
sonhei
de quimeras mil
um castelo ergui
e no teu olhar
tonto de emoção
com sofreguidão
mil venturas previ

Fascinação

o teu corpo é luz
sedução
poema divino
cheio de esplendor
teu sorriso prende
inebria, entontece
és fascinação, amor

Fascinação

os sonhos mais lindos
sonhei
de quimeras mil
um castelo ergui
e no teu olhar
tonto de emoção
com sofreguidão
mil venturas previ

Fascinação

o teu corpo é luz
sedução
poema divino
cheio de esplendor
teu sorriso prende
inebria, entontece
és fascinação, amor

Hopelessly

guess mine is not
the first heart broken
my eyes are not the first to cry
i'm not the first to know
there's just no getting over you

Devoted

you know i'm just a fool who's willing
to sit around and wait for you
but, baby, can't you see
there's nothing else for me to do?
i'm hopelessly devoted to you

but now there's nowhere to hide
since you pushed my love aside
i'm out of my head
hopelessly devoted to you

To You

my head is saying
"fool, forget him"
my heart is saying
"don't let go"
"hold on till the end"
and that's what
i intend to do
i'm hopelessly
devoted to you

You Are

yeah i got busted
so i used my one phone call
to dedicate
a song to you on the radio

yeah i got busted
in custody
i imagined our melody
being played on a grand piano

i saw your face in front of me
it was perfect clarity
i saw a light in the end of the tunnel
and it was you

‘cause you are the light by which
i travel into this and that
you are the light
you are the light by which
i travel into this and that

The Light

yeah i got busted
i painted a dirty word
on your old mans mercedes-benz
‘cause he told me to do it

yeah i got busted
but soon they released me
‘cause the cops were sad
and they didn’t know how to prove it

it sounds so obvious, so obvious
why would anyone need a map or a compass?
it’s so beautiful
to be guided by you
‘cause you are the light

you are the light by which
i travel into this and that
you are the light
you are the light by which
i travel into this and that
you are the light light light
you are the light
