Here are a list of lyrics, I have collected over time, gradually it will get bigger and bigger, but for now here goes.
Onto the Lyrics
Hide and Seek by Imogen Heap.
Poor Unfourtunate Souls by Ursula.
When Doves Cry from Romeo And Juliet with Leo.
If we hold on together by Diana Ross.
Hide and Seek
where are we? what the hell is going on?
the dust has only just began to fall crop circles in the carpet, sinking, feeling
spin me around again and rub my eyes
this can't be happening when busy streets a mess with people would stop to hold their heads heavy
hide and seek trains and sewing machines? all those years they were here first
oily marks appear on walls where pleasure moments hung before the takeover, the sweeping insensitivity of this still alive
hide and seek trains and sewing machines? oh, you won't catch me around here blood and tears they were here first
mm what you say oh that you only meant well, well of course you did mm what you say mm that it's all for the best, of course it is mm what you say that it’s just what we need, you decided this mm what you say what did she say?
ransom notes keep falling at your mouth mid-sweet talk, newspaper word cut outs speak no feeling no i don't believe you you don't care a bit you don't care a bit
you don't care a bit you don't care a bit you don't care a bit you don't care a bit you don't care a bit
Poor Unfourtunate Souls
( [Ursula:] The only way to get what you want is to become a human yourself. [Ariel:] Can you do that? [Ursula:] My dear, sweet child. That's what I do - it's what I live for. To help unfortunate merfolk - like yourself - poor souls with no one else to turn to. )
I admit that in the past I've been a nasty They weren't kidding when they called me, well, a witch But you'll find that nowadays I've mended all my ways Repented, seen the light and made a switch True? Yes
And I fortunately know a little magic It's a talent that I always have possessed And here lately, please don't laugh I use it on behalf Of the miserable, lonely and depressed (Pathetic)
Poor unfortunate souls In pain In need This one longing to be thinner That one wants to get the girl And do I help them? Yes, indeed Those poor unfortunate souls So sad So true They come flocking to my cauldron Crying, "Spells, Ursula please!" And I help them? Yes, I do
Now it's happened once or twice Someone couldn't pay the price And I'm afraid I had to rake 'em 'cross the coals Yes, I've had the odd complaint But on the whole I've been a saint To those poor unfortunate souls ( [Ursula:] Have we got a deal? [Ariel:] If I become human, I'll never be with my father or sisters again. [Ursula:] But you'll have your man. Life's full of tough choices, innit? Oh - and there is one more thing. We haven't discussed the subject of payment. [Ariel:] But I don't have any - [Ursula:] I'm not asking much. Just a token, really, a trifle. What I want from you is . . . your voice. [Ariel:] But without my voice, how can I - [Ursula:] You'll have your looks! Your pretty face! And don't underestimate the importance of body language! Ha! )
The men up there don't like a lot of blather They think a girl who gossips is a bore Yes, on land it's much preferred For ladies not to say a word And after all, dear, what is idle prattle for?
Come on, they're not all that impressed with conversation True gentlemen avoid it when they can But they dote and swoon and fawn On a lady who's withdrawn It's she who holds her tongue who gets her man
Come on, you poor unfortunate soul Go ahead! Make your choice! I'm a very busy woman And I haven't got all day It won't cost much Just your voice! You poor unfortunate soul It's sad But true If you want to cross a bridge, my sweet You've got to pay the toll Take a gulp and take a breath And go ahead and sign the scroll! Flotsam, Jetsam, now I've got her, boys The boss is on a roll This poor unfortunate soul
When Doves Cry
How can you leave me standing
alone in a world that is so cold?
Maybe I’m just too demanding.
Maybe I’m just like my father: too bold.
Maybe I’m just like my mother.
She’s never satisfied.
Why do we scream at each other?
This is what it sounds like when doves cry.
Yes, they cry, oh they cry.
How could you leave me standing
alone in a world that’s so cold?
Maybe I’m just too demanding.
Maybe I’m just like my father: too bold.
Maybe I'm just like my mother.
She’s never satisfied.
Why do we scream at each other?
This is what it sounds like
When doves cry.
This is what it sounds like
This is what it sounds like
This is what it sounds like
Oh ah, oh ah
Dream, if you can, a courtyard, an ocean of violence in bloom.
Animals strike curious poses.
They feel the heat, the heat between me and you.
Maybe I'm just like my mother.
She’s never satisfied.
She’s never satisfied.
Why do we scream at each other?
This is what it sounds like when doves cry.
Doves cry
You know that they cry
You know that they cry
You know that they cry
You know that they cry
You know that they cry
How could you leave me standing
( You know that they cry )
alone in a world that’s so cold?
( You know that they cry )
Maybe I’m just too demanding.
( You know that they cry )
Maybe I’m just like my father: too bold.
( You know that they cry )
Maybe I'm just like my mother.
( You know that they cry )
She’s never satisfied.
( You know that they cry )
Why do we scream at each other?
( You know that they cry )
This is what it sounds like
When doves cry.
If we hold on together
Don't lose your way
with each passing day
you've come so far
dont throw it away
Live beliveing
dreams are for weaving
wonders are waiting to start
Live your story
faith, hope, and glory
hold to the truth in your heart
Chorus:
If we hold on, together
I know our dreams will never die
Dreams see us through to forever
Where clouds roll by
for you and I
Souls in the wind must
learn how to bend
Seek out a star
hold onto the end
valley, mountain,
there is a fountain
washes our tears all away
Words are swaying
Someone is praying
please let us come home to stay
Chorus:
When we are out there in the dark
We'll dream about the sun
In the dark we'll feel the light
warm out hearts everyone
If we hold on, together
I know our dreams will never die
Dreams see us through to forever
As high as souls can fly
the clouds roll by
for you and I.
