You've
always been there most of all,all,all,all

When
You're Gone
Hold
onto love that is what I do
Now
that I've found you
And
from above everything's stinking
They're
not around you
-
And
in the night I could be helpless
I
could be lonely,sleeping without you
And
in the day everything's is complex
There's
nothing simple, when I'm not around you
-
But
I'll miss you when you are gone
That
is what I do Hey, baby
And
its going to carry on
That
is what I do Hey , baby
-
Hold
onto my hands
I
feel I'm sinking,sinking without you
And
to my mind
Everything's
stinking,stinking without you
-
And

Free
To Decide
It's
not worth anything
More
than this at all
I'll
live as I choose
Or
I will not live at all
-
So
return to where you come from
Return
to where you dwell
Because
harassment's not my forte
But
you do it very well
-
I'm
free to decide,I'm free to decide
And
I'm not so suicidal after all
I'm
free to decide,I'm free to decide
And
I'm not so suicidal after all
At
all,at all,at all
-
You
must have nothing more with your time to do
There's
a war in Russia and Sarajevo too
-
So
to hell with what you're thinking
And
to hell with your narrow mind
You're
so distracted from the real thing
You
should leave your life behind,behind
-
Cause
I'm free to decide,I'm free to decide
And
I'm not so suicidal after all
I'm
free to decide,I'm free to decide
And
I'm not so suicidal after all
At
all,at all,at all
-
I'm
free to decide,I'm free to decide
And
I'm not so suicidal after all

Mind
the war child,we should mind the war child
I
spent last winter in New York and came upon a man
He
was sleeping on the streets and homeless
He
said "I fought in Vietnam"
Beneath
his shirt he wore the mark,he bore the mark with pride
A
two inch deep incision carved,into his side

I
would like to state my vision
Life
was so unfair
We
live in our secure surroundings
And
people die out there

Bosnia
was so unkind
Sarajevo
changed my mind
And
we all call out in despair
And
all the love we need isn't there
And
we all sing songs in our room
Sarajevo
erects another tomb

Sure
things will change if we really wanted them to
No
fear for children anymore
There
are babies in their beds
Terror
in their heads
Love
for the love of life
