Sometimes You Can’t Make It on Your Own

U2

Tough
You think you’ve got the stuff
You’re telling me and anyone
You’re hard enough

You don’t have to put up a fight
You don’t have to always be right
Let me take some of the punches
For you tonight

Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don’t have to go it alone

And it’s you when I look in the mirror
And it’s you when I don’t pick up the phone
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own

We fight all the time
You and I, that’s alright
We’re the same soul don’t need, I don’t need to hear you say
That if we weren’t so alike
You’d like me a whole lot more

Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don’t have to go it alone

And it’s you when I look in the mirror
And it’s you when I don’t pick up the phone
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own

I know that we don’t talk
I’m sick of it all
Can you hear me when I sing?
You’re the reason I sing
You’re the reason why the opera is in me

Hey now
Still got to let you know
A house doesn’t make a home
Don’t leave me here alone

And it’s you when I look in the mirror
And it’s you that makes it hard to let go
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own
Sometimes you can’t make it
Best you can do, is to fake it
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own

Written by John Lennon and Yoko Ono “All we are saying is give peace a chance” – The song was written by John & Yoko during their weeklong ‘BED-IN’ advertising campaign for Peace, held in Montreal, Canada in 1969. The film features the original 31 May 1969 recording of ‘Give Peace A Chance’ and includes John & Yoko appearing at the National Peace Rally in Bryant Park, New York on 22 April 1972 plus additional protest footage from the era. It concludes with the hundreds of thousands of shocked fans who, after John’s sudden death, gathered for simultaneous vigils in Liverpool, London, New York and all around the world on 14 December 1980, to sing “Give Peace A Chance” and remember John.

Lyrics

Temperature Rise, It’s all right

Synapses fried, it’s alright

Got a banging headache and a fever

What a wonderful time to leave her

It’s the Summer, it’s the season

It’s the Summer so throw out all reason

It’s the Summer, it’s the season

So pop all those e’s in

Hold the horses and hold the phone

Hold a match to all you know

Hold a conversation and tune out

Hold on tight, don’t hold out

It’s the Summer, it’s the season

It’s the Summer so throw out all reason

Its the Summer, it’s the season

It’s the Summer so pop all those e’s in

And I know now, and I know why

And I know that it’s oh, it’s alright

It’s the Summer, it’s the season

It’s the summer, it’s the season

It’s the Summer, it seemed worth believin’

And it’s ok, it’s alright

It’s ok, no, I got it

Falling down, falling star

Falling out, no, I got it

And it’s a spell, and it’s a spark

And it’s a moonlight garden

Follow you, anywhere

Follow you, anywhere

Follow you, hold my heart out

It’s the Summer, it’s the season

It’s the Summer so pop all those e’s in

And I know now, and I know why

And I know that it’s oh, it’s alright

It’s the Summer, it’s the season

It’s the Summer, it seemed

worth…believe in

Lyrics – George Guilfoyle

Feet of a Dancer

Maura O’ConnellI

hope you find the feet of a dancer,
I hope you can sing in the rain,
I hope you find all the easy answers to your pain;
It won’t be easy, what can I say,
There will be trouble along the way;
‘Round every corner there’s terror and fear,
Always remember that we’re here.
I hope you find the feet of a dancer,
I hope you can sing in the rain,
I hope you find all the easy answers to your pain;
I hope you find love and affection,
I hope you find someone who cares;
I hope you find all the right directions everywhere,
Everywhere.
A shoulder to cry on whenever you’re alone,
You can rely on us you know;
Nothing too crazy, nothing too dear,
Always remember that we’re here.
I hope you find the feet of a dancer,
I hope you can sing in the rain,
I hope you find all the easy answers to your pain;
I hope you find love and affection,
I hope you find someone who cares;
I hope you find all the right directions everywhere,
Everywhere.

Sometimes when the rain comes pouring down,
When it comes pouring down,
Down on you.
I hope you find the feet of a dancer,
I hope you can sing in the rain,
I hope you find all the easy answers to your pain;
I hope you find love and affection,
I hope you find someone who cares;
I hope you find all the right directions everywhere,
Everywhere.
I hope you find all the right directions everywhere,
Everywhere.
