All I ever wanted wasn't you to know
Everything I do, I'll give my hardened soap
And all I ever wanted was for you to know
Everything I do, I give my heart and soul
All I ever wanted wasn't you to know
Everything I do, I'll give my heart and a song
And all I ever wanted was for you to know
Everything I do, I give my heart and soul
And in the day, everything's cold cuts.
And in the day, everything's complex.
And in the day, everything's cold cuts
And in the day, everything's complex
And in the day, everything's compact.
or
And in the day, everything's corn flakes.
And in the day, evrything's complex.
But always get me through the day
And make it all gay, I'm with you
Will always get me through the day
And make it okay, I miss you
But always get me through the day
And make it okay, I'm with you
Will always get me through the day
And make it okay, I miss you
Eating food that tastes like dirt
Even food don't taste that good.
Even food that days are good.
Even food don't taste that good.
Even food that tastes like dirt.
Even food don't taste that good.
Even fool days like these
They keep doing what it should.
Even food don't taste that good
Drink ain't doing what it should.
Even fool don't chase that girl.
Even food don't taste that good.
Even fools don't taste that good
Drinking, doing what he should.
Even food don't taste that good
Drink ain't doing what it should.
Even through the days that goes
Doing what it should.
Even food don't taste that good
Drink ain't doing what it should.
From the thongs I used to wear.
From the thorns I used to wear.
I realize I'm in love, stuck in love
or
I realize I'm in love, still in love
I realize I'm in love, so in love
I'm looking for a familiar face
But there's no one I know
Oh, this is Georgia
This is Jane.
I'm looking for a familiar face
But there's no one I know
Oh, this is torture
This is pain.
Pizza of my heart
The pieces of my heart
This Is Georgia
this is Spain
This is torture
this is pain
This is Georgia, this is Spain
This is torture, this is pain
This is gorgeous, this is pain
This is torture, this is pain
To always get me through the day
And make it all gay, I'm with you
To always get me through the day
And make it okay, I miss you
To always get me through the day
And make it okay, I'm with you
To always get me through the day
And make it okay, I miss you
Well it may be wrong
But baby Sheffield's right.
Well it may be wrong
But baby it sure feels right.
Sheffield is a city in the north of England and when Bryan Adams did a tour at the Sheffield Arena, everyone is sure he did actually sing 'Sheffield' and not the actual lyric.
When you're gone
The peas inside my heart are missing you.
When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you.
When you're gone,
the peas inside my heart are missing you
When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you.
When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing, too.
When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you.

You better
