Where's The Love

Whoa oh oh, Whoa yeah! Whoa Whoa! Oh

Somethings been going on and I don't know what it is. Whoa!
You don't mind the taking girl, but you don't know how to give.
Ohh, you drove me crazy, but I don't know maybe (Oh, oh, oh)
You're thinking that it's me you're fooling
Where's the right in, all of our fighting (Oh, oh)
Look at what you're doing.

Where's the love, it's not enough (Come on!)
It makes the world go 'round and 'round and...
Where's the love, give it up (Come on!)
It makes the world go 'round and 'round and 'round.

Oh yeah! Oh, OHH!

Can you tell me what you see whenever you look around
Round, Round, Round
We're tripping all over ourselves and pulling each other down, whoa
Oh, we're seperating, consciousness is fading (Oh, oh, oh)
You thinking that it's me you're fooling
Where's the right in, all of our fighting (Oh, oh)
Look at what we're doing

Where's the love, it's not enough (Come on!)
It makes the world go 'round and 'round and...
Where's the love, just give it up
It makes the world go 'round and 'round and 'round.

Dark clouds all around, lightening, rain pouring down.
We're waiting for the bright light to break through.
Face down on the ground, pick us up at the lost and found.
We've got to change out point of view, if we want the sky blue.

Guitar solo (Yeah!)

Oh, we're segregating, consciences are fading (Oh, oh, oh)
You're thinking that it's me you're fooling
Where's the right in, all of our fighting (Oh, oh)
Look at what we're doing.

Where's the love, it's not enough
It makes the world go 'round and 'round and (Come on!)
Where's the love, just give it up
It makes the world go 'round and 'round and 'round.

Where's the love, it's not enough (Come on!)
It makes the world go 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round
Where's the love, just give it up (Yeah!)
It makes the world go 'round and 'round and 'round.

Where's the love, it's not enough
It makes the world go 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round
Where's the love, just give it up
Oh, won’t you, won’t you give it up. (Whoa-oh)

Guitar solo (Oh, come on! Get up on your feet! Whoa-oh!)

Where's the love, it's not enough
It makes the world go 'round and 'round and
Where's the love, just give it up
It makes the world go 'round and 'round and 'round.

Where's the love, it's not enough
It makes the world go 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round
Where's the love, just give it up (Yeah!)

River

Lately we’ve been talking ‘bout who we are
Seems we don’t know anymore
And all this time that we’ve been thinking
At night I’ve been dreamin’ about you

And I know you don’t believe me when I say
I’ll love you till the end, forever and a day

And I guess we’ll never know (We’ll never know)
Exactly where this river is gonna flow
And I guess we’ll never understand (Understand)
Until we reach that promise land

So I guess we’ll
I guess we’ll never know (Oh)

Short Guitar Break
People say that we’re sweethearts
They say nothing in the world could tear us apart
Well I don’t know about you
But this thing we’re going through is tearin’ me in two

And I know you don’t believe me when I say
I’ll love you till the end, forever and a day

And I guess we’ll never know (We’ll never know)
Exactly where this river is gonna flow
And I guess we’ll never understand (Understand)
Until we reach that promise land

So I guess we’ll
I guess we’ll never know (Whoa-oh)

Short Guitar Break
We’ve had our highs and lows
But we let our feelings flow into the sea
Well these feelings come and go
But if we let our feelings show
This river just might flow to you and me, yeah

Guitar Break Give it up for Isaac Hanson! Come on!

I guess we’ll never know (Never know)
Exactly where this river is gonna flow
And I guess we’ll never understand (Understand)
Until we reach that promise land

So I guess we’ll
I guess we’ll never know

Yeah-yeah, whoa-whoa

Said I guess we’ll never know, yeah-yeah, whoa-whoa

Ike: Are you guys ready to rock? Alright, well then let’s rock!
Speechless

Whoa-ho, yeah!


Everybody wonders, and some people know
I guess that I'm some people 'cause baby it shows.
When will you do it, and why will you go
If you've already decided then deliver the blow

The way you walk around me, the way you talk around me
You act so speechless, you've got nothing to, nothing to say
The way you walk around me, the way you're talking to me
Makes me wonder if this was only play
And I wonder, will you still love me
Do you still love me like you did before, yow!

Said come on baby, you think I'm so blind
I see what you're doing behind my back all the time
I get suspicious when you call me someone elses name
You think I don't notice that nothing's the same anymore

The way you walk around me, the way you talk around me
You act so speechless, you've got nothing to, nothing to say
The way you walk around me, the way you're talking to me
Makes me wonder if this was only play
And I wonder, will you still love me
Did you ever love me or are you showing me the door.

Guitar solo Whoa-ho, yeah! Come on!

Said oh baby, you think I'm so blind
Said oh baby, I'm not playing around this time.
Said oh baby, did you ever love me or are you showing me the door. Whoa-ho,
yeah.

The way you walk around me, the way you talk around me
The way you walk around me, the way you talk around me, whoa
The way you walk around me, the way you talk around me

A Minute Without You

Well I woke up this morning
And the night had been so long
It seems that I had had my mind on you, whoa-ho
Well the day it has begun
And I can't get a minute, can't get a minute without you, oh yeah
You're always on my mind
You're always in my head, whoa-ho
And I can't live, I said I can't live another day without you.

Cause when the minutes seem like hours
And the hours seem like days
Then a week goes by you know it takes my breath away
All the minutes in the world could never take your place
There's 1440 hours in my day.

Ladies and gentleman, Zac Hanson on the drums!

I've been trying to call you all day
Cause I got so many things that I want to say, yeah (oh yeah)
I'm going crazy, cause all my thought are filled you
There's got to be some way I can get through to you, oh!

Cause when the minutes seem like hours
And the hours seem like days
Then a week goes by you know it takes my breath away
All the minutes in the world could never take your place
There's 1440 hours in my day.

Yeah-hey, in my day.

Well I can't keep myself from thinking 'bout you, whoa-ho
It's because I love you and I know, that it's true, oh-ho
I'll call it desperation, can't you see it in my eyes
That I want to be with you until the sun falls from the sky.

Cause when the minutes seem like hours
And the hours seem like days (when the minutes)
Then a week goes by
You know it takes my breath away (they seem like hours)
All the minutes in the world could never take your place
There's 1440 hours in my day.

Cause when the minutes seem like hours
And the hours seem like days
Then a week goes by you know it takes my breath away
All the minutes in the world could never take your place
There's 1440 hours in my day
Yeah, hey-yeah, in my day, yeah-hey yeah, 1440 hours in my day

Tay: "This song, we got our title of our album, Middle Of Nowhere, from and also the title of this tour, The Albertane Tour."
Zac: If you guys have the album you know the bonus track."
Tay: Man From Milwaukee!"
Man From Milwaukee

Bet you didn't know...

It started at a bus stop in the middle of nowhere
Sitting beside me was a man with no hair
From the look on his face to the size of his toes
He comes from a place that nobody knows.

Ohh, maybe I'm hallucinating, hyperventilating
Letting this big-toed bald man sitting here tell me about the sky, oh
Maybe I'm hallucinating, hyperventilating
If you asked me now, then I couldn't tell you why.

I've been sitting here too long, by a man from Milwaukee
He's been talking too long on his yellow walkie-talkie.
He's talking to Mars, but I think he's wacky
He says they'll come get him, come get him someday.

He says where he's from is called Albertane
But there they use more than 10% of their brain
But you couldn't tell it from the way they behave
The run around in underwear and they never shave.

Ohh, maybe I'm hallucinating, hyperventilating
Letting this big-toed bald man sitting here tell me about the sky, oh
Maybe I'm hallucinating, hyperventilating
If you asked me now, then I couldn't tell you why.

I've been sitting here too long, by a man from Milwaukee
He's been talking too long on his yellow walkie-talkie.
He's talking to Mars, but I think he's wacky
He says they'll come get him, come get him someday.

Ike: "Ladies and Gentleman, ZAC HANSON!"
This is Mother Bird, calling Baby Bird
Baby Bird, come in
Come in, Baby Bird
For the love of Pete, come in.

This is Baby Bird, sorry I watching Court TV, do you copy? Do you copy?

Of course we copy, 24 hours a day, in color.

Short Guitar Break

You wouldn't believe me if I told you the rest
The man sitting by me who was just barely dressed
Flew off to Milwaukee or perhaps Albertane
And left me at the bus stop, just barely insane.

Ohh, maybe I'm hallucinating, hyperventilating
If you asked me now, then I couldn't tell you why.

I've been sitting here too long, thinking 'bout Milwaukee
Yes, I've been talking too long on my yellow walkie-talkie.
I'm talking to Mars, you might think I'm wacky
I know they'll come get me, come get me someday.
I know they'll come get me and take me away.
I know they'll come get me, come get me someday...someday...
If not tomorrow, then maybe today!
