THE
HEALING ROOM
(Sinéad
O'Connor)
I have
a universe inside me
Where
I can go and spirit guides me
There
I can ask oh any question
I
get the answers if I listen
I
have a healing room inside me
The
loving healers there they feed me
They
make me happy with their laughter
They
kiss and tell me I'm their daughter
I'm
their daughter
They
say
You
have a little voice inside you
It
doesn't matter who you think you may be
You're
not free if you don't know me
If
you don't know me
See
I'm not the lie that lives outside you
And
it doesn't matter what
You
think you believe
You're
not free if you don't know me
If
you don't know me
See
I am the universe inside you
You
come to me and I will guide you
And
make you happy with laughter
I
joy in seeing you're my daughter
You're
my daughter
So
believe you're not free if
you
don't know me
If
you don't know me
If
you don't know me
If
you don't know me
If
you don't know me
If
you don't know me

JEALOUS
(Sinéad
O'Connor)
You're
jealous
You
just can't stand to see me get along without you
Like
I do, you told me to
Now
you're jealous
You
don't know how hard it was to be alone without you
And
wanting you, like I do
I
would have stayed if you'd wanted
But
you said I treat you so badly
I
can't be forgiven
You
know I have done anything
To
make it through with you
But
I don't deserve to be lonely
Just
cuz you say I do
You're
jealous
You
don't know how hard it is to be a woman in love with you
When
you're so cruel, and so jealous
You
don't think about anybody's feelings but your own
Are
you coming home?
I
would have stayed if you'd wanted
Would
have been willing
But
you said I treat you so badly
I
can't be forgiven
You
know I would have done anything
To
make it through with you
But
I don't deserve to be lonely
Just
cuz you say I do
So
if you're gonna go you've gotta go and if you're stayin stay
Cuz
I can't take the pain you keep leavin when you go away
If
you're gonna go you've gotta go and if you're stayin stay
Cuz
I can't take the pain you keep leavin when you go away
I
don't deserve to be lonely
I
don't deserve to cry
I
don't deserve to be lonely

DADDY
I'M FINE
(Sinéad
O'Connor)
I was
born in Dublin town
Where
there was not too much going on down
For
girls whose only hope
Was
not to find a man who could piss in a pot
So
early I heard my first guitar
And
I knew I wanted to be a big star
And
I told my poor worried father
Said
I ain't gonna go to school no more
Cuz
see I wanna look cool and I wanna look good
With
my hair slicked back and my black leather boots
Wanna
stand up tall with my boobs upright
And
feel real hot when the makeup's nice
I
get sexy underneath the lights
Like
I wanna fuck every man in sight
Baby
come home with me tonight
Make
you feel good make you feel all right
I'm
going away to London
I
got myself a big fat plan
Gonna
be a singer in a rock 'n' roll band
And
I'm gonna change everything I can
Sorry
to be disappointing
Wasn't
born for no marrying
Wanna
make my own living singing
Strong
independent Pagan woman singing
And
I feel real cool and I feel real good
Got
my hair shaved off and my black thigh boots
I
stand up tall with my pride upright
And
I feel real hot when the makeup's nice
I
get sexy underneath them lights
Like
I wanna fuck every man in sight
Baby
come home with me tonight
Make
you feel good make you feel all right
I'm
glad I came here to London
I've
myself some big fat fun
And
I have even made some mon'
I
got the most angelic son
My
baby daughter is golden
And
I do what I like for fun
And
I'm happy in my prime
Daddy
I'm fine I'm fine Daddy I'm fine
Daddy
I'm fine I'm fine Daddy I love you
TIL
I WHISPER U SOMETHING
(Sinéad
O'Connor)
Sure

Delicate
man it needn't be that bad
U

You'll
feel much better when u open
U
said all u want was a good time
It's
a big hill u have to climb
And
u got to be willing
U
stand tall and u be strong
U
have ruthless compassion
For
yourself and everyone
Yeah
it's hard but it can be done
I
know you're every right to feel grief
You've
not had anything that u need
But
u put your head on my shoulder
'Till
I whisper u something
'Till
I whisper u something
It
don't take much to have a good time
A
lot of lovemakingand a little wind
And
u got to be willing
U
stand tall
U
have ruthless compassion
For
yourself and everyone
Yeah
it's hard but it can be done
U
put your head on my shoulder
'Till
I whisper u something
'Till
I whisper u something
It's
a long walk towards a good time
Like
a big hill u have to climb
And
u got to be willing
It

A
lot of lovemakingand a little wind
And
u got to be willing
If
you've never seen a good time
If

If

How

How

If

HOLD
BACK THE NIGHT
(Robert
Hodgens)
I want
to walk
Into
the light
Day
has turned cold
So
hold back the night
What
will become
Of
you and I
We
had a dream
Don't
let it die
Do
you want to be
Do
you want to be
My
dying day
My
darkest hour
My
overdose
Cuz
that's what you'll be
Just
hold back the night
There
was a time
I'm
sure you'll agree
We
saw it all
A
glorious sight
Everyone's
burned
Everyone's
gone
What
we once were
Now
we are not
So
hold back the night
WHAT
DOESN'T BELONG TO ME
(Sinéad
O'Connor)
The
woman named Iris gave birth to the goddess
In
her son who can't say his name
Because
of all the pain
I
miss you, but I'm gald you're gone
I
want you but I'm not alone
I'm
haunted by you
But
I'll get you gone if it takes me all my life long
Take
back the pain you gave me
Take
back what doesn't belong to me
Take
back the shame you gave me
Take
back what doesn't belong to me
I'm
Irish, I'm English, I'm Moslem, I'm Jewish,l
I'm
a girl, I'm a boy
And
the goddess meant for me only joy
And
real love requires you, give up those loves
Whom
you think you love best
Love
puts you through the test
And
only loyal love will be me happiness
Take
back the rage you gave me
Take
back the hatred you gave me for me
Take
back the anger that nearly killed me
Take
back what doesn't belong to me
And
real love requires you
Give
up those loves
That
you think you love best
Love
put you through the test
And
only loyal love will bring me happiness
Take
back the pain you gave me
You
take back what doesn't belong to me
Take
back the blame you gave me
Take
back what doesn't belong to me
Take
back what doesn't belong to me
Take
back what doesn't belong to me
Take
back what doesn't belong to me
THE
STATE I'M IN
(Scott
Cutler & Anne Preven)
I'm
circling around the Sun
Hoping
for a chance to see
You
above everyone
To
rescue me from this heat
I'm
wating for night to fall
And
it's been days
Are
you sorry yet?
You
took our one and final breath
When
the flag was halfway down
Just
look at me now...
Oooooh-
It's like a breeze blowing deep beneath my skin
Oooooh-
Won't you help me out of the state I'm in
Oooooh-
I can't stand myself since you've been gone
There's
nothing there to lean upon
Walk
into a photograph
That
waiter took so well
Oooh
if I could only laugh
Like
that girl did at some hotel
I
call out to anyone
But
not too loud
I'm
not ready yet
To
share the phone or TV set
It's
long way to come
Out
of this one...
Oooooh-
It's like a breeze blowing deep beneath my skin
Oooooh-
Won't you help me out of the state I'm in
Oooooh-
I can't stand myself since you've been gone
There's
nothing there to lean upon
And
now it seems so fatal
The
last stone we left uncradled
And
I ask you are you sorry yet?
Are
you sorry yet?
Cuz
I may never come
Out
of this one...
Ooooh-
It's blowing deep
Ooooh-
And I can't get out
Oooooh-
No I can't get out, I can't get out
Ooooh-
It's blowing deep beneath my skin
The
state I'm in
This
is the state I'm in
The
state I'm in
This
is the state ... I'm ... in ...
THE
LAMB'S BOOK OF LIFE
(Sinéad
O'Connor)
Out
of Ireland I have come
Great
hatred and little room
Maimed
us at the start
And
now home just breaks my heart
To
America I have come
I
hope to bring your preacherman
Home
to show my people how they can
Get
their names back in the book of the life of the lamb
I
know that I have done many things
To
give you reason not to listen to me
Especially
as I have been so angry
But
if you know me maybe you would understand me
Words
can't express how sorry I am
If
I ever caused pain to anybody
I
just hope that you can show compassion
And
love enough to just please listen
Out
of Ireland I did run
Great
hatred and little room
Aimed
to break my heart
Wreck
me up and me all apart
To
America I have come
I
hope to find a good preacherman
Who
can show me how I can
Get
my name back in the book of the life of the lamb
I
bring these blessings with me
A
strong heart full of hope and a feeling
That
everything in this world would be okay
If
people just believed enough in God to pray
But
the world thinks that sounds crazy
And
that's the thing that makes me sing sadly
To
think that we would leave God so lonely
To
think that we would mess up our destiny
Out
of history we have come
With
great hatred and little room
It
aims to break our hearts
Wreck
us up and tear us all apart
But
if we listen to the Rasta man
He
can show us how it can be done
To
live in peach and live as one
Get
our names back in the book of the life of the lamb
IF
U EVER
(Sinéad
O'Connor)
The
memories u bring
Make
my eyes both sting
I
can't help that pain that's tearing
At
my throat and my chest
Where
everything is kept
When
I start remembering
HOw
the clothes that u wore
Made
my heart so sore
I
just couldn't think anymore
Of
u once u were gone
And
it's been so long
I've
been carrying on
And
if u ever come home in the night
Darling
I'd treat u right,
Oh
darling I'd treat u right
U
got into your car and drove as far
As
u could and even further
And
no matter how I sang
I
just never can
Stop
needing your hand
Though
got into my own car and drove as far
As
I could so that I might forget u
I
never could, does that I'm no good?
If
it doesn't it should
But
if u ever came home in the night
Darling
I'd treat u right
Oh
darling I'd treat u right
If
u ever came home in the night
Darling
I'd treat u right
Darling
I'd treat u right
And
I'd treat u right
EMMA'S
SONG
(Sinéad
O'Connor)
(Note
: This song is available only in some pressings of the CD)
The
first time I saw you
I
loved you
I
loved you
Your
face blue
Your
eyes too
Your
mouth too
Your
mouth too
When
I heard you
I
wanted you
Give
birth to you
Give
birth to you
I
made love to you
Made
love to you
The
great goddess
Had
us blessed
The
last time I saw you
I
fought with you
I
fought with you
I
didn't mean to
I
didn't mean to
Oh
say you'll see me
Let
me say sorry
The
next time I see you
I'll
love you
I'll
be sweet to you
I'll
take you to
My
healing room
Oh
we both know
How
loneliness goes
Everytime
I see you
I
want you
I
want you
The
more I do
You
hate me to
But
the great goddess
Had
us blessed
