lyrics

HAVE I EVER TOLD YOU BABY
I´VE NEVER LET YOU BEHIND
I´VE TRYING TO REACH YOU AND MAYBE
I WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND
I COULD NEVER FIND THE ANSWERS
I COULD NEVER SEE THE SIGNS
I GUESS NOW IT DOESN’T MATTER
COULD I JUST GO BACK IN TIME?
BUT I PROMISE THIS FOR SURE
NOTHING HAS BEEN IN VAIN
CAUSE YOU GAVE US ALL A LESSON
AND I KNOW THAT WE HAVE LEARNED
WE WILL TRY TO LIVE WITHOUT YOU
WE WILL TRY TO MAKE IT WORK
CAUSE WE KNOW THAT’S WHAT YOU WANTED
EVERY NIGHT AND EVERY DAY

MICK JACK:
Take me to the place, you promised long ago
When I was a little kid, and just wanted to know
You told me it was good, you told me it was right
You also even mention something about paradise

You gotta take me to that place, where your life is more than sorrow
Where the values of the world don’t turn out to be so hollow
Where a friend like you, with a soul like that
Will never feel compelled to quit before his time is right

We are spending everyday forgetting what it matters
We know whats going on, but we don’t even bother
So if you ask me, how can we change tonight
Forget about ourselves and just look to the right

Take me to the place you promised long ago
Where everyone could get whats really going on
Cause a friend like you, with a soul like that
Could only end, in a place like paradise.


HAVE I EVER TOLD YOU BABY
WHEN I SEE THE BRIGHT BLU SKY
I SEE YOU, I SEE YOUR FACE
HOW CAN I FORGET THAT SMILE
I CAN FEEL YOUR ARMS AROUND ME
I CAN EVEN FEEL YOUR SOUL
TALK TO ME, SAY MY NAME
HOW CAN I STILL MISS YOU SO
WILL YOU WHISPER IN MY EAR?
“YOU HAVE ALWAYS MADE ME PROUD,
YOU GO ON, CAUSE I AM WATCHIN
I WILL NEVER LET YOU DOWN”
MY WHOLE LIFE I´LL CRY FOR ANSWERS
CANT BELIEVE ITS BEEN SO LONG
BUT I KNOW YOU WILL BE WAITING
HOW CAN I STILL MISS YOU SO.
