Are You Gonna Go My Way Written by: Lenny Kravitz/Craig Ross I was born long ago I am the chosen I'm the one I have come to save the day And I won't leave until I'm done So that's why you've got to try You got to breath and have some fun Though I'm not paid I play this game And I won't stop until I'm done But what I really want to know is Are you gonna go my way? And I got to got to know I don't know why we always cry This we must leave and get undone We must engage and rearrange And turn this planet back to one So tell me why we got to die And kill each other one by one We've got to love and rub-a-dub We've got to dance and be in love But what I really want to know is Are you gonna go my way? And I got to got to know Are you gonna go my way? 'Cause baby I got to know Yeah Fly Away Written by: Lenny Kravitz I wish that I could fly Into the sky So very high Just like a dragonfly I'd fly above the trees Over the seas in all degrees To anywhere I please I want to get away I want to fly away Yeah yeah yeah Oh I want to get away I want to fly away Yeah yeah yeah Let's go and see the stars The milky way or even Mars Where it could just be ours Let's fade into the sun Let your spirit fly Where we are one Just for a little fun I want to get away I want to fly away Yeah yeah yeah Rock And Roll Is Dead Written by: Lenny Kravitz You think you're on top of the world But you know itīs really over Runnin' round with diamond rings And coke spoons that are overflowin' Rock an Roll is dead But all the money in the world Can't buy you from the place you're going to Rock an Roll is dead Rock an Roll is dead Rock an Roll is dead You can't even sing or play an instrument So you just scream instead You're living for an image So you got five hundred women in your bed Rock an Roll is dead But it's real hard to be yourself When you're living with those demons In your head Rock an Roll is dead Rock an Roll is dead Rock an Roll is dead Again I've been searching for you I heard a cry within my soul I never had a yearning quite like this before Now here you are walking right through my door All of my life Where have you been I wonder if I'll ever see you again And if that day comes I know we could win I wonder if I'll ever see you again A sacred gift of heaven For better, worse, wherever And I would never let somebody break you down Or take your crown never All of my life Where have you been I wonder if I'll ever see you again And if that day comes I know we could win I wonder if I'll ever see you again I've searched through time I've always known That you were there upon your throne A lonely queen without her king I've longed for you my love forever All of my life Where have you been I wonder if I'll ever see you again And if that day comes I know we could win I wonder if I'll ever see you again All of my life Where have you been I wonder if I'll ever see you again And if that day comes I know we could win I wonder if I'll ever see you again I wonder if I'll ever see you again I wonder if I'll ever see you again I wonder if I'll ever see you again I wonder if I'll ever see you again I wonder if I'll ever see you again It Ain't Over 'Til It's Over Written by: Lenny Kravitz Here we are still together We are one So much time wasted Playing games with love So many tears I've cried So much pain iside But baby it ain't over 'til it's over So many years we've tried To keep our love alive But baby it ain't over 'til it's over How many times Did we give up But we always worked things out And all my doubts and fear Kept me wondering If I'd always be in love So many tears I've cried So much pain iside But baby it ain't over 'til it's over So many years we've tried And kept our love alive 'Cause baby it ain't over 'til it's over So many tears I've cried So much pain inside Baby it ain't over 'til it's over So many years we've tried And kept our love alive 'Cause baby it ain't over 'til it's over (Repeat) Can't Get You Off My Mind Written by: Lenny Kravitz Life is just a lonely highway I'm out here on the open road I'm old enough to see behind me But young enough to feel my soul I don't wanna lose you baby And I don't wanna be alone Don't wanna live my days without you But for now I've got to be without you I've got a pocket full of money And pocket full of keys that have no bounds But then I think of lovin' And I just can't get you off of my mind Babe can't you see That this is killing me I don't want to push you baby And I don't want you to be told It's just that I can't breathe without you Feel like I'm gonna lose control I've got a pocket full of money oh yes I do And a pocket full of keys that have no bounds But when it comes to lovin' I just can't get you off of my mind Am I a fool to think that there's a little hope tell me baby What are the rules the reasons and the do's and don'ts Tell me baby tell me baby What do you feel inside?
