8. Nothing Turned Out Right I looked in the mirror But someone else had taken my place I pulled on my blue jeans Then found out I was so out of shape So I walked in the sunshine And suddenly it started to rain So I reached for the crossword But couldn't find where I'd left my brain It's just one of those days When nothing turns out right It's just one of those days When nothing turns out right I tried to hide in the darkness When someone went and turned up the light All I wanted was peace and quiet The everybody started to fight So I called for a taxi But the man said I'd have to wait Cause i thought it was tomorrow When I found out it was yesterday It's just one of those days When nothing turns out right It's just one of those days When nothing turns out right I turned on the T.V. But all I got was the same old repeats I asked for coke with my whisky And the waiter brought it to me neat I took a drive in the country But couldn't find my way out of town I booked a table for dinner But then the restaurant went and closed down It's just one of those days When nothing turns out right It's just one of those days When nothing turns out right 9. Out Of The Shadows Wipe the tears from your eyes It's time for leaving but not goodbye You don't know what it's like They went and took the best years of my life And they broke all our hearts But not our spirit while we were apart Now it's their turn to pay But they can't give back what they took away Oh I've waited such a long time That I can't believe it's true That somebody finally realized It wasn't me or you I wanna stand on the streets tonight Out of the shadows and into the light I wanna stand on the streets tonight Out of the shadows and into the light Who do you think you are? If you've got problems I'll show you my scars So don't turn away, you better listen I've something to say There's a wrong and a right And there's a law if you're black or you're white So we all make mistakes Like being born in the wrong time and place Crossing weeks and months off on a wall Counting hours in a day Writing letters well into the night There was no other way I wanna stand on the streets tonight Out of the shadows and into the light I wanna stand on the streets tonight Out of the shadows and into the light I'll take it all, take what's mine Cause all i ever got was time Take it all, take what's mine And maybe it will work out fine Wipe the tears from your eyes It's time for leaving but not goodbye You don't know what it's like They went and took the best years of my life And they broke all our hearts But not our spirit while we were apart Now it's their turn to pay But they can't give back what they took away I wanna stand on the streets tonight Out of the shadows and into the light I wanna stand on the streets tonight Out of the shadows and into the light
