Don't go breaking my x 4
Don't go breaking my heart

SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW
(Sung by Ronan on the Parkinson Show)

Somewhere, over the rainbow, way up high
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true
Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
And way above the chimney tops
Is where you'll find me, and

Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby

Where troubles melt like lemon drops
And way above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me, and
Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true

If happy little blue birds fly
Beyond the rainbow
Why, or why, can't I?

TENDER - cover of Blur
Tender is the night
Lying by your side
Tender is the touch
Of someone that you love too much
Tender is the day
The demons go away
Lord I need to find
Someone who can heal my mind

Waiting for that feeling to come

Hiding from the sun
Waiting for the night to come

Lying by your side

Of someone that you love too much
Tender is my heart
you know I'm screwing up my life
Oh Lord I need to find
Someone who can heal my mind

THE TOWN I LOVED SO WELL

(Sung by Ronan Keating with Phil Coulter)

In my memory, I will always see
The town that I loved so well
Where our school played ball by the gas yard wall
And they laughed through the smoke and the smell
Going home in the rain, riding up the dark lane
Past the jail, and down behind the fountain
Those were happy days in so many, many ways
In the town I loved so well

In the early mornin' the shirt factory horn
Called women from cryin', the moor and the bog
While the men on the dole played a mother's role
Fed the children and then walked the dog
And when times got tough there was just about enough
And they saw it through without complainin'
For deep inside was a burning pride
In the town I loved so well

There was music there in the derriere
Like a language that we all could understand
I remember the day that I earned my first pay
When I played in a small pick-art band
There I spent my youth, and to tell you the truth
I was sad to leave it all behind me
For I learned about life, and I found a wife
In the town I loved so well

But when I returned, how my eyes have burned
To see how a town could be brought to its knees
By the armoured cars and the bombed-out bars
And the gas that hangs on to every breeze
Now the army's installed by that old gas yard wall
And the damn barbed wire gets higher and higher
With their tanks and their guns, Oh my God, what have they done
In the town I loved so well

Now the music's gone but they carry on
For their spirits be bruised, never broken
They will not forget but their hearts are set
For tomorrow they'll have peace once again
For what's done is done and what's won is won
And what's lost is lost and gone for ever
I can only pray for a bright, brand new day
In the town I loved so well

CHORUS

My Heart Is Not My Own

Oh,oh, yeah,
Oh yeah,
Underneath it all was everything I did not say,
All the scenes I've pulled was me just trying to find my way,
Just putting on a show, but in the light of day,
I see it all, it's crystal clear, what I needed most
Was waiting all along right here

Baby my love goes on,
Choices I made were wrong,
You are where I belong,
You're all I've got, my heart is not my own.
Not my own

Almost gave up hope of ever finding peace of mind,
Almost lost my soul, seeking what I could not find.
Chasing things I knew could never satisfy my heart,
I left my heart, I left my life, I left my senses
And I drove all night

Baby my love goes on,
Choices I made were wrong,
You are where I belong,
You're all I've got, my heart is not my own.
Not my own

I left my home, I left my life, I left my senses
And I drove all night,
I see it now, it's crystal clear, what I needed most
was right here, right here

Baby my love goes on,
Choices I made were wrong,
You are where I belong,
You're all I've got, my heart is not my own
Baby my love goes on
Choices I made were wrong,
You are where I belong,
You're all I've got, my heart is not my own.
Baby, Baby, Yeah Baby..... (fade)

ALL I ASK

(sung by Dina Carroll)
Written by Ronan Keating and Desmond Child

I'm not asking you to change
Who you are, where you're going
I'm not asking you to loose control
I'm not asking for the world
Or for you to keep it spinning
Just that you be the one receiving
All this loving that I'm giving

All I ask is that you love me
In my own special way
And that I'm the one who holds you
When there's nothing left to say
All I ask is that you need me
More than anybody else
That you're there for me to turn to
When I've lost myself
All I ask of you
All I ask of you....is that you love me

When I think of all the things
We do when we're together
Say a little prayer for love
I won't take up all your time
Just give me all your precious moments
Baby open up your arms
Let me fill them with emotions

Chorus
Is that you love me..yeah

I believe, I believe, I believe
You were meant for me
Let you be, let you breathe, let you fly
Cause you come right back to me
You come right back to me, baby

Repeat Chorus

Is that you love me....tell me ....do you love me?

THESE DAYS
Brian Kennedy and Ronan Keating
Written by J. Mc.Millan/ S.Peiken/ P.Murray

These days, I've been feeling lucky
Looking all around me
I see so many dreams that have come true
Like me right next to you
Like the angels coming through
These days have only just begun

Someone to come home to
Each and every night
All of my tomorrows
Are finally looking bright
Oh what, I won't rush it,
Why would I dare?
Nothing could compare
To the way I've been feeling these days

They are the best I've ever had
And they have only just begun
Here we we're so connected
Like the moon is to the sun
I never thought I'd feel this way
Cos all I ever really wanted is these days

If I could, I'd try to freeze the moment
Set aside the future
Stay right here right now
So time won't fly
Like the flame that never dies
Like the love that's in your eyes
These days have only just begun

Something to believe in
When the world is going mad
And when the rain is crashing down girl
It doesn't seem so bad
Oh what, I won't rush it
Why would I dare?
Nothing could compare
To the way I've been feeling these days

CHORUS (2)

They are the best I've ever had and they have only just begun..

In the Ghetto

As the snow flies
On a cold and gray Chicago mornin'
A poor little baby child is born
In the ghetto
And his mama cries
'cause if there's one thing that she don't need
it's another hungry mouth to feed
In the ghetto

People, don't you understand
the child needs a helping hand
or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day
Take a look at you and me,
are we too blind to see,
do we simply turn our heads
and look the other way

Well the world turns
and a hungry little boy with a runny nose
plays in the street as the cold wind blows
In the ghetto

And his hunger burns
so he starts to roam the streets at night
and he learns how to steal
and he learns how to fight
In the ghetto

Then one night in desperation
a young man breaks away
He buys a gun, steals a car,
tries to run, but he don't get far
And his mama cries

As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man
face down on the street with a gun in his hand
In the ghetto

As her young man dies,
on a cold and gray Chicago mornin',
another little baby child is born
In the ghetto

Brown-Eyed Girl (Van Morrison)

Hey where did we go, days when the rains came.
Down in the hollow, playin' a new game.
Laughin' and a runnin' , hey hey, skippin' and a jumpin'
in the misty mornin' fog with our hearts a thumpin' and you,
My Brown-Eyed Girl
You my Brown-Eyed Girl

Now what ever happened, Tuesdays and so slow,
Goin' down the old mine, with a transistor radio
standin' in the sunlight laughin'
hidin' behind a rainbow wall
Slippin' and a slidin', all along the waterfall with you,
My Brown-Eyed Girl
You my Brown-Eyed Girl.

Do you remember when, ah we used to sing

Sha la la la la la la la la la la dee dah
Sha la la la la la la la la la la dee dah
la dee dah

So hard to find my way, now that I'm all on my own
I saw you just the other day, oh my how you have grown,
Cast my memory back there Lord
Sometimes I'm overcome thinkin' bout,
makin love in the green grass, behind the stadium with you.
My Brown-Eyed Girl
You, my Brown-Eyed Girl.

Do you remember when, ah we used to sing

Sha la la la la la la la la la la dee dah
Sha la la la la la la la la la la dee dah
la dee dah

Circle of Life

Music by Elton John, lyrics by Tim Rice

From the day we arrive on the planet
And blinking, step into the sun
There's more to be seen than can ever be seen
More to do than can ever be done
 
Some say eat or be eaten
Some say live and let live
But all are agreed as they join the stampede
You should never take more than you give
 
(Chorus)
In the Circle of Life
It's the wheel of fortune
It's the leap of faith
It's the band of hope
Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the Circle, the Circle of Life
 
Some of us fall by the wayside
And some of us soar to the stars
And some of us sail through our troubles
And some have to live with the scars
 
There's far too much to take in here
More to find than can ever be found
But the sun rolling high
Through the sapphire sky
Keeps the great and small on the endless round
 
(Chorus repeats)
 
On the path unwinding
In the Circle, the Circle of Life.

Someday You’ll Know
by New Radicals

90 miles outside Chicago
Can't stop driving
I don't know why
So many questions
I need an answer
Two years later you're still on my mind
Whatever happened to Emelia Earhart
Who holds the stars up in the sky
Is true love once in a lifetime
Did the captain of the titanic cry

Someday we'll know
If love can move a mountain
Someday we'll know
Why the sky is blue
Someday we'll know
Why I wasn't meant for you

Does anybody know the way to Atlantis
Or what the wind says when she cries
I'm speeding by the place that I kissed you
For the 97th time tonight

Someday we'll know
If love can move a mountain
Someday we'll know
Why the sky is blue
Someday we'll know
Why I wasn't meant for you
Someday we'll know
Why Samson loved Delilah
One day I'll go
Dancing on the moon
Someday you'll know
That I was the one for you

I bought a ticket to the end of the rainbow
I watched the stars crash in the sea
If I could ask god just one question
Why aren't you here with me
Someday we'll know
If love can move a mountain
Someday we'll know
Why the sky is blue
Someday we'll know
Why I wasn't meant for you
Someday we'll know
Why Samson loved Delilah
One day I'll go
Dancing on the moon
Someday you'll know
That I was the One for you

I Couldn't Love You More - MICHAEL LEONARD

(Written & composed by Ronan Keating, Brian Kennedy & Callum McColl)

I am here to hold you.
Let my thoughts surround you.
And I will send this ship to shore, I will calm the tide.

I couldn't love you more if I tried.
I couldn't write the words cause there are no lines.
If loving you is a crime then I'll do the time.
I couldn't love you more if I tried.
Baby if I tried.


Take my hand, walk with me
I will be strong until the hurt is gone

I couldn't love you more if I tried.
I couldn't write the words cause there are no lines.
If loving you is a crime then I'll do the time.
I couldn't love you more if I tried.
Baby if I tried.

If I tried, If I tried.

I couldn't love you more if I tried.
I couldn't write the words cause there are no lines.
If loving you is a crime then I'll do the time.
I couldn't love you more if I tried.


I couldn't love you more if I tried.
I couldn't write the words cause there are no lines.
I couldn't love you more if I tried
Let your spirit lift me.
And when you're weak

Pump It Up

I've been on tenterhooks

ending in dirty looks,

list'ning to the Muzak,

thinking 'bout this 'n' that.

She said that's that.

I don't wanna chitter-chat.

Turn it down a little bit

or turn it down flat.

Pump it up when you don't really need it.

Pump it up until you can feel it.

Down in the pleasure centre,

hell bent or heaven sent,

listen to the propaganda,

listen to the latest slander.

There's nothing underhand

that she wouldn't understand.

Pump it up until you can feel it.

Pump it up when you don't really need it.

She's been a bad girl.

She's like a chemical.

Though you try to stop it,

she's like a narcotic.

You wanna torture her.

You wanna talk to her.

All the things you bought for her,

putting up your temp'rature.

Pump it up until you can feel it.

Pump it up when you don't really need it.

Out in the fashion show,

down in the bargain bin,

you put your passion out

under the pressure pin.

Fall into submission,

hit-and-run transmission.

No use wishing now for any other sin.

Pump it up until you can feel it.

Pump it up when you don't really need it.

Drops of Jupiter

Now that she's back in the atmosphere
With drops of Jupiter in her hair, hey, hey
She acts like summer and walks like rain
Reminds me that there's time to change, hey, hey
Since the return from her stay on the moon
She listens like spring and she talks like June, hey, hey

Tell me did you sail across the sun
Did you make it to the Milky Way to see the lights all faded
And that heaven is overrated

Tell me, did you fall for a shooting star
One without a permanent scar
And did you miss me while you were looking at yourself out there

Now that she's back from that soul vacation
Tracing her way through the constellation, hey, hey
She checks out Mozart while she does tae-bo
Reminds me that there's time to grow, hey, hey

Now that she's back in the atmosphere
I'm afraid that she might think of me as plain ol' Jane
Told a story about a man who is too afraid to fly so he never did land

Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And head back to the Milky Way
And tell me, did Venus blow your mind
Was it everything you wanted to find
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there

Can you imagine no love, pride, deep-fried chicken
Your best friend always sticking up for you even when I know you're wrong
Can you imagine no first dance, freeze dried romance five-hour phone conversation
The best soy latte that you ever had . . . and me

Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And head back toward the Milky Way

Repeat 1st Chorus
