When You're Gone

Bryan Adams featuring Melanie C

(Bryan Adams / Kennedy)

(When you're gone!)

I've been wandering around the house all night Wondering what the hell to do
Yeah, I'm trying to concentrate, but all I can think of is you

Well the phone don't ring 'cos my friends ain't home I'm tired of being all alone
Got the TV on 'cos the radio's playing songs that remind me of you

Baby when you're gone
I realize I'm in love
Days go on and on
And the nights just seem so long
Even food don't taste that good
Drink ain't doin' what it should
Things just feel so wrong
Baby when you're gone

(Yeah)

I've been driving up and down these streets trying to find somewhere to go
Yeah I'm looking for a familiar face but there's no one I know

Oh this is torture, this is pain It feels I'm gonna go insane
I hope you're comin' back real soon 'cos I don't know what to do

Baby when you're gone (when you're gone)
I realize I'm in love
Days go on and on (on and on)
And the nights just seem so long
Even food don't taste that good
Drink ain't doin' what it should
Things just feel so wrong (oh, yeah)
Baby when you're gone

(Hey, don't go Bryan, when you're gone babe)

Don't go, don't go

(Oh baby)
Baby when you're gone (when you're gone)
I realize I'm in love (so in love)
The days go on and on (yeah)
And the nights just seem so long
Even food don't taste that good (oh-whoa)
Drink ain't doing what it should (oh)
Things just feel so wrong (so wrong)
Baby when you're gone (you're gone)

Oh Baby when you're gone Yeah, baby when you're gone

Angel On My Shoulder
(Melanie Chisholm / Phil Thornally / Hewerdine)

Sometimes when I'm lonely I can feel you on the breeze
In the darkness, when I'm sleeping you're the colour in my dreams

And I'm not alone No I'm not alone

You're the angel on my shoulder
You're always there (you're always there)
You're the angel on my shoulder
I know you care (I know you care)
I know you're there, angel

Sometimes when I'm nervous and I try to catch my breath
You're the space between my heartbeats you're the reason I feel blessed

And I'm not alone No I'm not alone

You're the angel on my shoulder
You're always there (you're always there)
You're the angel on my shoulder
Now I'm not scared (now I'm not scared)

I know you watch me when I'm good or bad
But I could never let you down you always understand

You're the angel on my shoulder
You're always there (you're always there)
You're the angel on my shoulder

I Want You Back
(Melanie Chisholm / Phil Thornally / Colin Campsie)

Everyday in my thoughts You're my one obsession
Can't go on, need a fix This is my confession

When you're not around the nights go on
You may be with her, but with me you belong
I am the only one I am the only one

I want you back Whatever you do
I want you back I've got nothin' to prove
I don't care what you said Want you back in my bed
I want you back I want you back

Can't let go, guess you know Now I've blown my cover
What I want, what I need Is no other lover

Try to deny it but you know it's true
No one can make you feel like I do
I am the only one I am the only one

I want you back Whatever you do
I want you back I've got nothin' to prove
I don't care what you said Want you back in my bed
I want you back I want you back

You can't keep runnin' away from me
When something feels so right
Then it's meant to be
Like a dog with a bone
I won't let go, won't let go

Try to deny it but you know it's true
No-one can make you feel like I do
I am the only one I am the only one

I want you back (I want you back)
Whatever you do
I want you back (I want you back)
I've got nothin' to prove
I don't care what you said
Want you back in my bed
I want you back I want you back

I want you I need you I want you I need you

I want you, I need you I want you, I need you
I want you, I need you (Ooh)

Goin' Down (Single) 1999

Follow Me

(Melanie Chisholm / Bryan Adams / Billy Steinberg)

Light comes in I watch you wake

Wanting you so much my heart could break
To touch your skin, to feel your hair I'd follow you anywhere

Light goes out I watch you sleep Never imagine love so deep
I close my eyes to breath the air I'd follow you anywhere

In the waves that wash over me, wash over you
Follow me, I'll follow you
Through your dreams to secret places
Here's my hand just take it
Do as I do I'll follow you

Nobody knows who made the stars Baby the whole world is ours
From Liverpool to Leicester Square I'd follow you anywhere

Angels that watch over me, watch over you
Follow me, I'll follow you
Through your dreams to secret places
Where nobody can trace us
We'll make it through I'll follow you

In the waves that wash over me, wash over you
Follow me, I follow you
When nobody can find you
I'll be right behind you
You make it through I follow you

Follow me I'll follow you
Through your dreams to secret places
Here's my hand just take it
Do as I do I'll follow you

Something's Gonna Happen
(Melanie Chisholm / Marius De Vries / Steve Sidelnyk)

A shadow falls across the sky The silence sings a lullaby
The room is spinning, close my eyes
Something's gonna happen (Something's gonna change)

Distant voices call my name I'm like an insect in a flame
The darkness overcomes my shame
Something's gonna happen, yeah (Something's gonna change)

Fly away Find a way to find me
The night is near, and you are here
To take my living breath away

Dream weaver, soul believer
Feeding on my lover's fever
Soul catcher, body snatcher
Feel the fever

Out of sight, not out of mind Love is cruel, love is blind
Cast a spell, drink the wine
Something's gonna happen (Something's gonna change)

Taste the danger, oh so sweet Feel the hunger, feel the heat
My heart is falling at your feet
Something's gonna happen, yeah (Something's gonna change)

Fly away Find a way to find me
The night is near, and you are here
To take my living breath away

Dream weaver, soul believer Feeding on my lover's fever
Soul catcher, body snatcher Feel the fever comin' atcha
Dream weaver, soul believer Living on my lover's fever
Soul catcher, body snatcher Feel the fever

(Na na na na na na na na na) Whoa oh yeah
(Na na na na na na na na na) Whoa oh yeah
(Na na na na na na na na na) Something's gonna happen
(Na na na na na na na na na) Something's gonna change

I Wonder What It Would Be Like
(Melanie Chisholm / Rick Nowels / Billy Steinberg)

I see you every day I've known you for a while
You always say hello I love the way you smile

Do you have any idea what seeing you does to me
I can feel you look in my direction, when will you give into me?

I wonder what it would be like
If we turned out the light
I wonder what it would be like
I'm longing for ya, wanna adore ya
Who would be the first to strike
If you stayed the night
I wonder what it would be like to love you

Well don't you think its strange Fate brought you to my side

(brought you to my side)
I was doing crunches You were on stationary bike

I had given up on love I'd met too many freaks (met too many freaks)
Ever since I was seventeen I've been on this loosing streak

I wonder what it would be like (What would it be like)
If we turned out the light
I wonder what it would be like (What would it be like)
I'm longing for ya, wanna adore ya
Who would be the first to strike (Who would be the first to strike)
If you stayed the night
I wonder what it would be like to love you (What would it be like)

You can look at someone and use your imagination
Oh give in (give in), give in (give in) give in to temptation

I wonder what it would be like (What would it be like)
If we turned out the light (Turned out the light)
I wonder what it would be like (What would it be like)
I'm longing for ya, god I adore ya
Who would be the first to strike (Who would be the first to strike)
If you stayed the night (You stayed the night)
I wonder what it would be like to love you

I wonder what it would be like (What would it be like)
If you would hold me tight (Turned out the light)
I wonder what it would be like (What would it be like)
To love you, to love you, to love you

Never Be The Same Again (Single) 2000

Independence Day
(Melanie Chisholm / Elliot Kennedy)

I know I make mistakes I will have to live and learn
Sometimes you play with fire and sometimes you get burned

I have my dream to live Following that star
It doesn't matter how long it takes It doesn't matter how far

No time for make believing
And it's too late to turn back now, you-you-you

I've been dreaming about it
I can't live without it
I've got to find my own way
I'm not changing my mind now
Or looking behind now
This is my independence day
My independence day

I know it'll take some time But I won't give up the fight
Sometimes you win, sometime you lose But that's alright, oh yeah

I've got to spread my wings And learn how to fly
Cos this feeling drives me on It's something I cannot deny

No time to make excuses
Cos it's too late to turn back now, you-you-you

I've been dreaming about it
I can't live without it
I've got to find my own way
I'm not changing my mind now
Or looking behind now
This is my independence day
My independence day
Hey, my independence day, oh-oh

No matter what comes my way I'm gonna live for today, yeah-yeah
This is my, this is my independence day (Gonna live for today)

I've been dreaming about it
I can't live without it
I've got to find my own way
I'm not changing my mind now
Or looking behind now
This is my independence

I've been dreaming about it
I can't live without it
I've got to find my own way
I'm not changing my mind now
Or looking behind now
This is my independence day
My independence day (independence day)
Day, my independence day (independence day)

Wishing on that same bright star
I shouldn't wish my life away, wish my life away (independence day)
They say it's a small small world
They say it's a small small small small world (independence day)
(Independence day)

Bend It Like Beckham (OST) 2002

I Turn To You (German Translation)

Ich komme zu dir

(Melanie Chisholm / Rick Nowels / Billy Steinberg)

Wenn die Welt dunkler ist

Als ich es begreifen kann

Wenn nichts so wird, wie ich es plante

Wenn der Himmel grau wird

Und kein Ende in Sicht ist

Wenn ich in einsamer Nacht

Nicht schlafen kann

Refrain:

Dann komme ich zu dir

Wie eine Blume, die sich zur Sonne neigt

So komme ich zu dir

Denn du bist der Einzige

Der mich auf die Füße stellt

Wenn ich Kopf stehe

Ich komme zu dir

Wenn alles in mir ganz kaputt ist vor Angst

Dann ist es deine Berührung

Die mich beruhigt

Du gibst mir Mut, du schmilzt das Eis

Wenn ich Aufmunterung brauche

Wenn ich deinen Rat brauche

Refrain

Wo wäre ich bloß, was würde ich nur tun

Wenn du mir nicht weiterhelfen würdest?

Ich hoffe nur, dass eines Tages

Wenn du von deinem Weg abgekommen bist

Du zu mir kommen könntest

(Du zu mir kommen könntest)

So wie ich zu dir komme

Refrain

Ich komme zu dir

Wenn die Angst mich zur Umkehr drängt

Ich komme zu dir

Denn du bist der Einzige

Der mich auf die Füße stellt

Wenn ich Kopf stehe

Ich komme zu dir

If That Were Me (German Translation)

Wenn ich da sitzen würde

(Melanie Chisholm / Rick Nowels)

Manche bleiben stehen.
Manche werden nur langsamer.
Manche schauen dich an.
Und manche starren dich an.
Wo sie hingehen, was sie tun – keine Ahnung.
Und ob sie helfen würden, oder ob es sie auch nur kümmert – auch keine Ahnung.
Und ich geb lediglich das lose Kleingeld, was ich so in der Tasche habe.
Ob das was hilft, wenn du kein Dach überm Kopf hast?
Andere drehen sich gleich weg.
Wenn ich da sitzen würde – du würdest wahrscheinlich stehenbleiben.

Warum bist du so tief gefallen?
Bist du überhaupt gefallen?
Bist du zufrieden, wenn du unterm freien Himmel schläfst?
Oder fühlst du dich einsam zwischen all den Autos aufm Parkplatz?
Wenn ein Gewitter kommt – wo gehst du dann hin?
Und wenns kalt wird, ist es dann deine Hoffnung, die dich warm hält?

Ich könnte ohne mein Telefon nicht leben.
Du hast noch nicht mal eine Adresse.
Du hast nichts und DU lebst auf der Straße.
Vergib mir bitte mein Selbstmitleid.

Aber – wie tief sind wir eigentlich gefallen?
Und kommen wir überhaupt nochmal irgendwie hoch?
Sind wir glücklich, so wie wir sind auf unserem privaten kleinen Stern?
Du hast zumindest noch eine Hoffnung, die dich wärmt, wenn es kalt wird.
