The Cranberries(之二)



Ode To My Family


Understand the things I say
Don't turn away from me
Cause I spent half my life out there
You wouldn't disagree
D'you see me, d'you see
Do you like me. Do you like me standing there
D'you notice, d'you know
Do you see me, do you see
Does anyone care
Unhappiness, where's when I was young
And we didn't give a damn
'Cause we were raised
To see life as fun and take it if we can
My mother, my mother she hold me
Did she hold me, when I was out thered
My father, my father, he liked me
Oh he liked me, does anyone care
Understand what I've become
It wasn't my design
And people everywhere think
Something better than I am
But I miss you. I miss
'Cause you liked it. I liked it
When I was out there
D'you know this, d'you know
You did not find me, you did not find
Does anyone care
Unhappiness was when I was young
And we didn't give a damn
'Cause we were raised
To see life as fun and take it if we can
My mother, my mother she hold me
Did she hold me, when I was out there
My father, my father, he liked me
Oh me liked me, does anyone care
Does anyone care

Never Grow Old

I had a dream
In this dream it seems
It was my perfect day
Open my eyes
I realize this is my perfect day
Hope you never grow old
Hope you never grow old
Hope you never grow old
Hope you never grow old
Do ...
Birds in the sky
They look so high
This is my perfect day
I feel the breeze
I feel
This is my perfect day
Hope you never grow old
Hope you never grow old
Hope you never grow old
Hope you never grow old
Forever young
I hope you stay forever young
Do...

Stars

The Stars are bright tonight
And I am walking nowhere
Guess I will be alright
Desire gets you nowhere
And you are always right
I thought you were so perfect
Take you as you were
Have you as you were
Take you as you were
I love you just the way you are
I love you just the way you are
I'll take you just the way you are
Does anybody love the way you are
Aaa Aaa Aaa
The Stars are bright tonight
A distance is between us
And I will be OK
The worst I've ever seen us
And still I have my weaknesses
And still I have my strength
And still I have my ugliness
But I, I, I
I love you just the way you are
I love you just the way you are
I'll take you just the way you are
Does anybody love the way you are
Aaaa Aaaa Aaaa Aaaa Aaaaa
I love you just the way you are
I love you just the way you are
I'll take you just the way you are
Does anybody love the way you are
Aaaa Aaaa Aaaa Aaaa Aaaa Aaaa Aaaa

Animal Instinct

Suddenly something has happened to me
As I was having my cup of tea
Suddenly I was feeling depressed
I was utterly and totally stressed
Do you know you made me cry
Do you know you made me die
And the thing that gets to me
Is you'll never really see
And the thing that freaks me out
Is I'll always be in doubt
It is a lovely thing that we have
It is a lovely thing that we
It is a lovely thing, the animal
The animal instinct
So take my hands and come with me
We will change reality
So take my hands and we will pray
They won't take you away
They will never make me cry, no
They will never make me die
And the thing that gets to me
Is you'll never really see
And the thing that freaks me out
Is I'll always be in doubt
The animal, the animal, the animal instinct in me
It's the animal, the animal, the animal instinct in me
It's the animal, it's the animal, it's the animal instinct in me

When You're Gone

Hold on to 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
And in the day, everything's complex
There's nothing simple when I'm not around you
But I miss you when you're gone
That is what I do
Hey baby
It's hard to carry on
That is what I knew
Hey baby...
Hold on to my hands
I feel I'm stinking
Stinking without you
And to my mind
Everything's stinking
Stinking without you
And in the night I could be helpless
I could be lonely, sleeping without you
And in the day, everything's complex
There's nothing simple
When I'm not around you
I miss you when you're gone
That is what I do
Hey baby
It's hard to carry on
That is what I do
Hey baby...

Salvation

To all those people doing lines
Don't do it, don't do it
Inject your soul with liberty
It's free, it's free
To all the kids with heroin eyes
Don't do it, don't do it
Because it's not, not what it seems
No no it's not, not what it seems
Salvation...
Is free...
To all the parents with sleepless nights
Sleepless nights
Tie your kids home to their beds
Clean their heads
To all the kids with heroin eyes
Don't do it, don't do it
Cos it's not, not what it seems
No no it's not, not what it seems
Salvation...
Is free...

Time Is Ticking Out

We'd better think about the things we say
We'd better think about the games we play
The world went round, around and round
We'd better think about the consequences
We'd better think about the global senses
The time went down, the time went down
What about Chernobyl
What about radiation
We don't know, we don't know
What about deprivation
Gluttony, the human nation
We don't know, we don't know
For me love is all, for me love is all
For me love is all, for me love is all
Time is ticking out
I guess that we screwed up the ozone layer
I wonder if the politicians care
The time went down, the time went down
What about our children then
Is there nothing left for them
We don't know, we don't know Rel
For me love is all, for me love is all
For me love is all, for me love is all
La la la la the oxygen, la la la la the oxygen
For me love is all, for me love is all
For me love is all, for me love is all
Time is ticking out yeah
Time is ticking out

PRETTY EYES

Pretty eyes, pretty eyes
Not a cloud in my day
Not a cloud in my way
Angel eyes, no disguise
No pretention is here
No pretention, no fear
Don't leave me calling
Don't leave me falling
Don't leave me calling
Don't leave me falling
Stay awhile, stay awhile
I will tell you my mind
I will tell you my mind
I will kill everything
Just to take off your pain
Just to take off your pain
Don't leave me calling
Don't leave me falling
Don't leave me calling
Don't leave me falling

JUST MY IMAGINATION

There was a game we used to play
We would hit the town on Friday night
And stay in bed until Sunday
We used to be so free
We were living for the love we had
Living not for reality
It was just my imagination
There was a time I used to pray
I have always kept my faith in love
It's the greatest thing from the man above
The game I used to play
I've always put my cards upon the table
Let it never be said that I'd be unstablem
It was just my imagination
There is a game I like to play
I like to hit the town on Friday night
And stay in bed until Sunday
We'll always be this freee
We will be living for the love we have
Living not for reality
It's not my imagination
Not my
