Brown suede shoes and corduroys
Greasy hair not out of choice
Trying hard to blend in with the boys
Standing in the corner of the room
He would see her every friday night
Watching all the guys hold her so tight
Looks in her eyes
But she doesn't even know his name
He would give her just anything
To hear her voice
To hear her sing
"i love you"
Climbing mountains so high
He won't give in
Risk the thin thread of life
To find his dream
There is no turning back
In the face of attack
Looking for the key of her heart
She's the reason of his dreams
Heroine to his pirate king
Marylin to his jimmy dean
Swept away to the sound of violins
Friday night and it's all for real
She don't know just how he feels
Maybe this could be her lucky day
He would give her just anything
To hear her voice
To hear her sing
"i love you"
Climbing mountains so high
He won't give in
Risk the thin thread of life
To find his dream
There is no turning back
In the face of attack
(Payne/Downes)
They put away the DDT now
But gave metal to the sea
A hundred years can't wait
A hundred years can't wait another day
The only eagle, only tree
Within a desert that was green
A hundred years can't wait
A hundred years can't wait another day
Midnight
Draws ever near
Daylight
Is fading so fast
It's so close to midnight
Midnight
The melting ice will fuel the sea
By burning gold from ancient tree
A hundred years can't wait
A hundred years can't wait another day
This is progress, this is sin
Injecting poison in her skin
A hundred years can't wait
A hundred years can't wait another day
Midnight
Draws ever near
Daylight
Is fading so fast
It's so close to midnight
Now, the party's over
It's you and I, just you and I
Now, the guests have gone
It's one on one, one on one
Which way now will the eagle fly?
Tell me how will the stars shine in the sky?
Love now till eternity
Shooting for the moon
To put your hand in mine and say
"I vow to stay with you"
Love now till eternity
Shooting for the moon
To put your hand in mine and say
"I vow to stay with you"
You, you are my life
And so I give all that I can
All, all that is left
That you are woman, I am man
Which way now will the eagle fly?
Tell me how will the stars shine in the sky?
Love now till eternity
Shooting for the moon
To put your hand in mine and say
Heart and soul
You took me in a special way
No time at all
My feelings were just blown away
Angel in red
I couldn't take my eyes off you
A golden chance
Into the light out of the blue
This is the time
The place is a four-minute rendezvous
But oh my God
The thought never entered my mind
Before I saw you
Oh Kari-Anne
The first time that I ever saw your face
Well I knew
Oh Kari-Anne
I never should be standing in this place
But I do
Kari-Anne
Shameless love
We know what we're gonna do
Hopeless romance
But I love every inch of you
In your arms
Do anything you want me to
No way out
My heart just tells me what to do
Whoa, Oh Kari-Anne
I Will Be There For You
(Payne/Downes/Sherwood)
I remember long ago
A foolish one that hurt you so
I was someone you need to know
Stay here tonight
Turn back the tide
You've got to shine on my life again
I just need a second chance
To repair this circumstance
Stay here tonight
Turn back the tide
You've got to shine on my life again
Anything you want
Anything you need
I will be there for you
Every single day
Every little way
I will be there for you
Anything you want
Anything you need
I will be there for you
Every single day
Every little way
I will be there for you
I am so much wiser now
I live so fast I must slow down
Forget the past forgive me world
Stay here tonight
Turn back the tide
You've got to shine on my life again
Anything you want
Anything you need
I will be there for you
Every single day
Every little way
I will be there for you
Anything you want
Anything you need
I will be there for you
Every single day
Every little way
I will be there for you
It's not up to me
You have to believe
We must cross this sea alone
Did you ever know?
The day I let you go
I've been running on my own
After all is said and done
Time will wait no more
Have not the strength to carry on
Light grows cold
Steals away the life in me
Cold with this uncertainty
Forgive me
I can't wait a lifetime
Won't let this child die within my heart
I can't wait a lifetime
Don't let it slip away
Don't let it slip away
From me
In the end I had to turn
Hurt to see you cry
Beneath the skin the prison lies
Love the only crime
Do I unlock the life in me
Or ride the storm eternally
Forgive me
I can't wait a lifetime
Won't let this child die within my heart
I can't wait a lifetime
Don't let it slip away
Don't let it slip away
Through the fields that have changed with time
The spirit still grows stronger
I can see the boy inside
I can feel the hunger
But there's a shadow that is thrown upon us
Like a thief come in the night
They still try and put us down
We stand and fight
I believe
We're gonna rise and steal the thunder
I believe
We're gonna hold this flame forever
I believe
Like an arrow from a burning bow
It's aim once born of anger
Like a river that forever flows
The years our only danger
The water washes over me
But I still can breathe the fire
Oh lord, I'm just a man
No longer giving it all away
I believe
We're gonna rise and steal the thunder
I believe
We're gonna hold this flame forever
In the distance, I can see them
On the trade winds, across stormy seas.
They are many, please believe me,
There's something to find,
There's someplace here deep inside of my mind.
There is a time where,
There is no place here.
Tell me if you get there...
Heaven
Can you see this land I'm dreaming?
Such a place, I hope we will find.
Is it there now? tell me where now,
'cos I need to know.
Believe... it's still deep inside of my mind.
There is a time where,
There is no place here.
Tell me if you get there...
We are the future within our dome
A new generation, we live alone
Washed the words from the subway wall
We had to fight to survive
You still can have it all
So listen to our cry
With a mind of steel, but a heart of gold
The winds of change you can move the stone
By the hands of love you must free the soul
To live forever with a heart of gold
We are the future, we hold the key
The messengers are calling, "wake up your race"
All but man did turn to dust
Then we saw her fall
Cut her down by the sword of greed
So listen to our cry
With a mind of steel, but a heart of gold
The winds of change you can move the stone
By the hands of love you must free the soul
To live forever with a heart of gold
With a mind of steel, but a heart of gold
The winds of change you can move the stone
By the hands of love you must free the soul
To live forever with a heart of gold
You are the future, it's up to you
Dig for victory, go for gold
I don't wanna die before I get old
And I wonder where I'm going to
There's some way out, there's some way through
But I'm lost, I'm lost, I'm down again
My direction is changing, which way
Which way can I go?
Get up and go
You start me up, you slow me down
No one can deny, you get around
When you're hot, you're cold, you're in between
Keep asking myself, what does it mean?
And I walk that tightrope, you should know
I'm losing my balance, maybe
Maybe I should go
Get up and go
Just go
Get up and go
Face to face in sympathy
But now you turn your back on me
Turn a card and win, but you may lose
Fate only has that right to choose
If you're right, leave me here, I'll die alone
You've got the time, you've just got time
You've got the time, just go
Get up and go
Just go
Get up and go
Just go
Just go
Look into the distance, you're living in a cage
A fire burns inside you, that fuels all the rage
You're thinking of the outside, and dream of the past
The gates to freedom lie within your grasp
They're changing the system, rewriting the laws
Renaming religion, reshaping your cause
You'll always be lonely, walking with fools
The shadows in the doorways make the rules
Free, this time
Don't be scared of who you are
Free, to find
There's no hiding in the dark
A new day is dawning, a new age begun
Nobody told you which way you should run
Wait for the thunder, break from the shell
Is this the gate to freedom from this Hell?
Free, this time
Don't be scared of who you are
Free, to find
There's no hiding in the dark
Free, this time
You can learn to live again
Free, to find
There is shelter from the rain
They're razing the fences in the pastures of doom
The fields of our heroes, the land won by few
The call of a new world, dream to transcend
Now it's time to fight and start again
Free, this time
Don't be scared of who you are
Free, to find
There's no hiding in the dark
Free, this time
You can learn to live again
Free, to find
Feel my mind, the sleep is ending
As we rush into the sea
Take my eyes, and I will show you
The future in the deep
You must breathe on
You must be strong
Am I right to fight the distance
As we push against the tide?
You must breathe on
You must be strong
Rushing through my head, I can touch the thunder
Lighting up the mind, as the wind blows stronger
Pushing back the sea, as the storm is calling on
Louder than before, in the raging river
Faster than the stream, will it last forever?
Holding back the time, as the world stops turning
Feels like love...
Tell me, does it feel like love?
We look to the sky, to the statue of hope
She is holding the flame, as the island awoke
To the city of dreams, where the angel still sleeps
See the satellites glow as they rise from the sea
Feels like love...
Another meltdown
Another change of state
Some other big town
Where he can make his break
She said, "Oh no, I like it this way"
And he said, "Oh no, does this mean I can stay?"
I feel like I'm just caving in
I really do
And what is to be must be
Help me, now I'm falling
Give me early warning
Help me, I'm in danger over you
So how you feelin'?
You know it's not too late
Don't hold your head down
You must recuperate
I feel like I'm just caving in
I really do
And what is to be must be
Help me, now I'm falling
Give me early warning
Help me, I'm in danger over you
Help me, now I'm falling
Give me early warning
Help me, I'm in danger over you
Over you, over you, over you
I don't want to see your picture
On a faded video
I don't want to turn the clock back
To the way it used to go
Can you give me any reasons
Why I made this sacrifice?
When you thought, you walked on water
You were skating on thin ice
'Cause we don't see eye to eye
'Cause we don't see eye to eye
I don't want to be a memory
Just another Anglophile
I would never learn your language
Could it be there's no more time?
Is there any reason talking
'Bout your crazy point of view?
You can't even try to answer
The questions that I put to you
'Cause we don't see eye to eye
'Cause we don't see eye to eye
'Cause we don't see eye to eye
All of the nights when the light was low
And day seemed so far away
Darkness was endless
And I kept seeing ghosts turn in shades of gray
Wanted to see things just the way they used to be
Don?t want those shadows hanging over me
Daylight, wanna see daylight
Wanna see daylight that shines all around
Daylight, I wanna see clear blue light
Wanna see daylight that shines all around
Hours and hours in towers
On the back road of tragedy
Voices are calling
And fingers come on crawling all over me
Then when I sit up and my hands begin to shake
Suddenly, there I see the dawn break
Daylight, wanna see daylight
Wanna see daylight that shines all around
Daylight, wanna see clear blue light
Wanna see daylight that shines all around
Only one thing keeping me sane
Daylight, wanna see daylight
Wanna see daylight that shines all around
Daylight, I wanna see clear blue light
I wanna see daylight that shines all around
Daylight, I wanna see clear blue light
(Payne/Downes)
Do you believe?
The truth
Of who we are
Everyone must kneel
Everyone must bow
No matter how you feel
In the sacred hour
And the sun don't shine
Cos the moon won't fall
And the sun won't shine
Is there light at all?
Its darkness day
Ghost
I feel it to the bone
Enough
The messages in stone
Now the day has come
Everyone will see
A new age has begun
For eternity
And the sun don't shine
Cos the moon won't fall
And the sun won't shine
Is there light at all?
As a child, we played the game
Fought the war, but felt no pain
Arm to arm, we left the skin
Then said the words, remember them
Oh, never a moments doubt
Oh, feel it, scream it loud
Chorus:
Anytime that you call
Anytime if you fall
Anytime I'll be there for you
Any moment of fear
Anytime say the prayer
Swear that our word is true
Should I go
Should I stay?
I won't turn my head away
Cross the line, the great divide
So kill the silence, where we hide
Oh, never a moments doubt
Oh, feel it so scream it loud
Chorus
If clouds fall, stand tall
As mountains climb from endless sea
Call out, fear not
Bring back that memory
You're twisting what I say
You have me on the floor
I have to get away
I move toward the door
PC This is it, because I'm on my way...
Ch: (Tell me where you're going to now)
I'm going to find Al Gatto Nero
(What will you do, please tell me how?)
Mi sento fortunato, si si, é vero
(I need to know, when will you be there?)
I'll be there after midnight, and I will be solo
(And how are you feeling tonight?)
I'm feeling good
Via della Luna, quattro quattro zero
All's fair in war and love
I hear that's what they say
It's clear I've had enough
We fight another day
This is it, because I'm on my way...
Time after time
For those that are able
To go underground
Missiles disenable
They hit faster than sound
They're coming and you have no choice
The helpless with one human foice
That will categorically say
This underdog will have his day
One more dead is one more than it ought to be
A travesty
One more missed will be kissed to eternity
Or purgatory
After the war
Red button he's pressing
But he knows not why
He's programming orders
War lights up the sky
He's on the hotline tonight
His mind is high as a kite
His fingers decide wrong or right
This man has it all in his sights
Used as tools to believe in autonomy
Minorities are no more
Men are fools, one last cry to humanity
No sanity any more
After the war
On my arm, a tattoo for my sons to be
That numbers you and me
There's a scar on my face
That is photographed for all to see
Don't hang that sign on me
You're the stranger
Don't try to talk to me
You're the stranger
On the seas
They came from far away
From the skies
Their silver birds of prey
In one day
Ten thousand years could change
We are fools
To live your pilgrim ways
Don't hang that sign on me
You're the stranger
Don't try to talk to me
You're the stranger
And we drive
Five hundred miles this time
To the edge
Of crystal-cut blue sky
Silence breathes
South of the border line
Silent trees
Look back and wonder why
Did father and his holy son
Spread the word and point the gun?
And where the eagle used to fly
They carve their concrete in the sky
Tearing at our mother's skin
Taking all her blood within
Remember how it used to be?
Did father and his holy son
Spread the word and point the gun
And where the eagle used to fly
They carve their concrete in the sky
Tearing at our mother's skin
Taking all her blood within
Remember how it used to be?
Stand up again and say:
Don't hang that sign on me
You're the stranger
Don't try to talk to me
You're the stranger
Don't hang that sign on me
You're the stranger
Don't try to talk to me
Laser, breathing on my window
Two strings, beating out of time
Koto, warning of the danger
Wake up, is your head still mine?
Now they give you reasons
To fight for love
That's enough
In a paper world
That's enough
Said the chinese girl
That's enough
Another city falls
Just because we're two sides of the moon
Data, streaming through my window
Chrome stars, whispering their lies
Black sky, hides approaching stranger
Reach out, two should now be one
Disregard the reasons
And look above
That's enough
In a paper world
That's enough
Said the siamese girl
That's enough
Another city falls
He often wondered where he's from
The Holy Grail, the bloodline son
In his veins the answer comes
The Promised Land, Parisian
We sail today
Into the sun
To the place
Where life begun
From the sea
Into the soul
Tell Mother Earth
To conquer all
Their temple stones will point the way
They kept their secret to the grave
A final journey he must run
The Promised Land, Parisian
We sail today
Into the sun
To the place
Where life began
From the sea
Into the soul
Tell Mother Earth
There is no comeback from the big divide
Maybe there's a future to be found waiting on the other side
If it's illusion, then what is real?
In life's confusion, take what you can
Fight it till you reach the goal.
And the higher you climb you can fall
But never look down
And the faster you run, it's a crawl
To the end of the line.
Seems all directions lead to one place
There are no signposts guiding me
It takes a long time to see
And the higher you climb you can fall
But never look down
And the faster you run, it's a crawl
To the end of the line.
The age of reason has come and gone
The changing seasons move on and on until you reach the goal
And the higher you climb you can fall
But never look down
And the faster you run, it's a crawl
Standing on the border,
Waiting on the line.
Silence is a stranger,
In these troubled times.
I recall a better place,
Where I controlled my mind.
We had no fears at all...
The day before the war.
Hands across the water,
The sun is in the east.
Who will feed the famine
After lions feast?
In the name of jesus,
In the name of god,
You took it all in vain...
The day before the war.
Standing on the border,
Waiting on the line.
Feet in bloody water,
Deafened by the crime.
I recall the beauty,
Young will never see.
We had no fears at all...
The day before the war.
Hearts across the water,
The sun is in the east.
Ships arrived this morning,
From the burning sea.
Take away the glory,
Take away the pain.
You were a friend of mine...
Tell me why,
I don't believe in you.
I don't believe it's true.
I don't believe in you.
Happens nearly every time,
If you let them, they'll control your mind,
Yes your mind.
But that was only yesterday,
So you had to wash your head in hate.
In hate, in hate.
Tell me why,
I don't believe in you.
I don't believe it's true.
I don't believe in you.
Shall we stand against the wind?
Staring at the justice of their sins,
Their sins.
What have they done to live this way?
In a modern world, the fragile pay
They pay, oh yes they pay.
Tell me why,
I don't believe in you.
I don't believe it's true.
Rock and roll dream
Not what it seems
Who is the dreamer now?
When I see the faces from the limousine
No chance of our survival
Armed forces, the guardians of the law
Awaiting our arrival
They all are young, we all were young
And I've seen this place before
Open up the door, let us in
All the things I'd seen
Words I said, I didn't mean
Feelings, I took for granted
But now reality
One thing we could never see
Everything, we always wanted
They all are young, we all were young
And I've seen this place before
Open up the door, let us in
Rock and roll dream
Not what it seems
Who is the dreamer now?
Rock and roll dream
Not what it seems
Who is the dreamer now?
If I had the choice
Words came through my voice
I should have left unspoken
Now it's obvious
Clear to all of us
The dream that now is broken
Take the stage tonight
Go, face the lights
With this image you should keep
You're crying in your sleep tonight
Rock and roll dream
Not what it seems
Who is the dreamer now?
Rock and roll dream
Not what it seems
Who is the dreamer now?
Rock and roll dream
Not what it seems
Who is the dreamer now?
I saw you standing hand in hand
And now you come to me the solitary man.
And I know what it is that made us live such ordinary lives
The where to go
the who to see
no one could sympathize.
The smile has left your eyes
the smile has left your eyes.
And I've become a rolling stone
I don't know where to go or what to call my own
But I can see that black horizon looming ever close to view
It's over now
it's not my fault
see how this feels for you
The smile has left your eyes
the smile has left your eyes.
But I never thought I'd see you standing there with him
So don't come crawling back to me.
I saw you standing hand in hand . . .
Now it's too late to realize
now that no one can sympathize
Now that the smile has left your eyes.
Now it's too late to realize
now that no one can sympathize
Now it's too late to realize
now that the smile has left your eyes.
Walking through the snow kicking my heels
Seems that sunlight never felt so good before
Bet you really don¡¯t know how it feels
I don¡¯t have to answer to no one no more
And better I¡¯ve never felt
Nothing to show, but nothing to lose,
I¡¯m on my own
Cast your mind back not so long ago
I was always busy playing by the rules
Bet you thought I really didn¡¯t know
You were double dealing, now you¡¯re back at school
Something you didn¡¯t learn
Faith in myself
Gives me the strength to carry on
I¡¯ll do what I want to anyway
I¡¯ll do what I want and I¡¯ll do it in
My Own Time
Don¡¯t give that same old pack of lies
I¡¯ll tell you the story how it really is
You think you always had me under ties
Someone better tell you that the table¡¯s turned
Getting your fingers burned, how does it feel?
Now it¡¯s for real this is the deal
I¡¯ll do what I want to anyway
I¡¯ll do what I want and I¡¯ll do it in
My Own Time is on my side again
And one thing I intend
Is to do it in My Own Time
Hard times you had before you
I knew when I first saw you
You girl you¡¯ve always been mistreated, cheated
So leave it all behind you
It took so long to find you
I know that we can last forever, ever and more, more, oh
Don¡¯t Cry now that I¡¯ve found you
Don¡¯ Cry take a look around you
Don¡¯t Cry it took so long to find you
Do what you want, but little darling please Don¡¯t Cry
I knew I¡¯d never doubt it
I was so sure about it
Don¡¯t think of all that¡¯s been before
I¡¯ll hear you when you¡¯re calling
I¡¯ll catch you when you¡¯re falling
Don¡¯t worry I will always be there, like never before, or, oh
All of the nights when the light was low and day seemed so far away
Darkness was endless and I kept seeing ghosts turn in shades of grey
I wanted to see things just the way they used to be
Don¡¯t want those shadows hanging over me
Daylight, I wanna see daylight
Wanna see daylight that shines all around
Daylight, I wanna see clear blue light
Wanna see daylight that shines all around
Hours and hours in towers on the back road of tragedy
Voices are calling and fingers come on crawling all over me
Then when I sit up and my hands begin to shake
Suddenly there I see the dawn break
Only one thing keeping me sane, oh
A perfect day
Or so I say
From where
I'm standing
This rollercoaster ride
Fate will decide
The ending
Love everlasting
Or lost on the way
The smiles
And the frowns
The ups and downs
Of fortune turning
The twists and turns
The lessons learned
The bridges burning
Nights to remember
And never forget
Go, seize the day
Wake up and say
This is an
Extraordinary life
Enjoy today
Come what may
This is an
Extraordinary life
I gave it all
My cards have fallen
But I'm still alive
And in the end
Believe my friend
I will survive
Glory and heartache
And some of the joy
Go, seize the day
Wake up and say
This is an
Extraordinary life
Enjoy today
Come what may
This is an
Extraordinary life
All of the good times
and all of the bad
Responsibility is totally
Mine I know
I rightly stand accused
But I believe
That I can change
I can change my world
Go, seize the day
Wake up and say
This is an
Extraordinary life
Enjoy today
Come what may
This is an
This time, you know just what Im saying
But you could never give a damn
Or so it seems
Its a fine line with this game that youre playing
And you could always turn around
Go running for home
ALIBIS, little lies
Procrastination
Secrecy, duplicity
The end of your ALIBIS
Something I could always believe in
Suddenly just disappeared
Its all over now
ALIBIS, little lies
Procrastination
Secrecy, duplicity
The end of your ALIBIS
Goodbye your tiny whispers of comfort
Never the victim of circumstance
You had me deceived
So Jodie, maybe this is the last time
That I will ever speak your name
Im going home
ALIBIS, little lies
Procrastination
Secrecy, duplicity
The fighting's over now
There's nowhere left to run
My ammunition's out
I'd better put down my gun
And as I face this life of fear
I'd better keep my conscience clear
Inside my mind I'm out of it
And I ain't never coming back
Chorus:
So don't come running here to find me
'cos I'm a military man
And as I spin this wheel of fortune
In my military world
I'm a military man
The architects of time
Are calling me
But I don't believe it
Necessarily
And as I face this life of fear
Break the chains
That bind me here
Inside my head I'm out of it
But I'm still never coming back
Chorus
I'm a military man
I'm looking at your photograph The picture on my wall
Life's too short for memories I can't have it all
You gave me the run-around So we go our own sweet ways
I'll be making the most of summertime Crazy nights and lazy days
Summer Can't Last Too Long Summer Can't Last Too Long
Spring, Winter or Fall But out of them all
The Summer Can't Last Too Long
One night can seem a lifetime And I've got no more time to lose
Sunshine on my shoulders Kissing away my blues
Looking to the future Searching for the girl
Not too much like the last one Just the prettiest in the world
Summer Can't Last Too Long Summer Can't Last Too Long
Spring, Winter or Fall But out of them all
The Summer Can't Last Too Long
Yeah, yeah
He was just a lonely kid
No matter what he did
Was never recognised
Then you came along
Was the second son
So special in their eyes
Oh how he ran
To the city where his dreams would turn to man
Oh how he ran
So he lived his life alone
Where he lay was home
Then they made him move along
From town to town
With his head held down
Then he turned twords the gun
Again how he ran
From the badge he had no chance to understand
Oh how he ran
Chorus:
Don't cut the wire, cos he really needs you now
Don't cut the wire, in the final hour
When it comes to the rest, you were always the best
Brother don't you cut the wire
Many years have passed
But behind the mask
He always thought of you
Now with a gun in hand
It's his final stand
Your brother needs you too
He knows how he ran
From the child he was
Then later from the man
Oh how he ran
Chorus
As I look back
In that last act
Far beyond the call of duty
Did I stay strong?
Did I give more?
Far beyond the call of duty
Walked the streets at night
Head low
To cross the borderline
That only you know
Then inside your room
You'll show
The man you did not want to be
Chorus:
Are you big enough?
Are you losing your touch?
And if you walk away
Don't you know you'd better change
From these early days
Don't want to let go
You'd climb the stairs of change
To her room
Held those clothes so soft
Was it so good
To paint the face the scars of youth?
Chorus
{chorus}
Rock and roll dream
Not what it seems
Who is the dreamer now?
When I see the faces from the limousine
No chance of our survival
Armed forces, guardians of the law
Awaiting our arrival
They all are young
We all were young
And I've seen this place before
Open up the door
Let us in
All the things I've seen
Words I said, I didn't mean
Feelings, I took for granted
But now reality
One thing we could never see
Everything, we always wanted
They all are young
We all were young
And I've seen this place before
Open up the door
Let us in
{chorus}
If I had the choice
Words came through my voice
I should have left unspoken
Now it's obvious
Clear to all of us
The dream that now is broken
Take the stage tonight
Go face the lights
With this image you should keep
You're crying in your sleep
Tonight
{chorus}
Standing there I've been watching you
All alone Your face says it all
Desperately I need to talk to you
Can you see me Will you answer my call
Am I In Love Or is it the magic of tonight
Am I In Love Or is it the magic of tonight
And will it be right Tomorrow morning
Hold me now I feel you close to me
It's so good, so good I want more
Something stirs Deep inside of me
Face to face as we move My life is yours
Just one kiss Remember this
And it will stay with you Forever
As the world is caving in
From the pressures of the day
And you feel that you can't win
But you know you'll have to stay
We have to toe the line
It's so hard to take the pace
You're a better man than I
In the perfect human race
So we live under the gun
We live under the gun
See the writing on the wall
In the city's caves of steel
Hear the echoes of the night
Will the anger ever heal?
So we live under the gun
We live under the gun
We live under the gun
We live
Your mind control, your gift of lies
You, brother, dear we're screaming
You said you cared, we needed you
You, mother, now you're leaving
So we live under the gun
We live under the gun
We live under the gun
If you want it
Don't look at my face
It's the last time
It's not forever
The dust in the wind
It's the last time
One world, one dream
The stars in your hand
No light, no life
The scars are made by man
Heaven can't help you now
In this madness
Take it while you can
It's the last time
This holy water
Running away
For the last time
One world, one dream
The stars in your hand
No light, no life
So heal the scars of man
One chance, this night
To shine on this land
This time, with pride
Give back now while you can
All these fields, that once were green
Have turned to smoke and steel
The sun will fall, and the last moon rise
Don't turn this tide away
If you want it
So start it again
It's the last time
(the scars were made by man)
It's not forever
The dust is the wind
For the last time
One world, one dream
The stars in your hand
No light, no life
So heal the scars of man
One chance, this night
To shine on this land
This time, with pride
Give back now while you can
Available on the u.k. digi-pack and u.s. releases.
Silent wave coming down on me
Washing out the lie
Living inside me
Life's not hard
Now I'm on tv
This sudden twist of fate
I am direct salvation
Just send in your donation
I can promise that you'll be saved
Forgive me, world
I'm just a man who's lost his way
Forgive me, these two words I pray
It's time to make a change
Yesterday was a different day
Thought I knew the answer
A vision in my mind
Search my soul
And then you will find
A shelter for my pain
The truth is in the open
And now my heart has spoken
Hoping maybe you'll hear my cry
Forgive me, world
I'm just a man who's lost his way
Forgive me, these two words I pray
It's time to make a change
Forgive me, world
I'm just a man who sins today
Forgive me, these two words I pray
My faith is still the same
Maybe I can't change the past
Maybe love can bring us back
Maybe we can try and start again.
Forgive me, world
It's all gone wrong, I just can't take no more
So don't you push me with your lies
Another parking fine, ten more deadly bills
They say it's gonna rain again
They tried to comfort you
To take the pain away
The words they said to you
Could never be explained
Come make my day
Come make my day
This useless radio, there's traffic everywhere
I wonder where she was last night
Why are we standing still? It's so hard to breathe
And stop the voices in my head
They tried to comfort you
To take the pain away
The words they said to you
Could never be explained
Come make my day
Come make my day
Let me out of here, the clouds are closing in
I need to see her one more time
They tried to comfort you
To take the pain away
The words they said to you
Could never be explained
Come make my day
Come make my day
Come make my day
[Instrumental]
Brown suede shoes and corduroys
Greasy hair not out of choice
Trying hard to blend in with the boys
Standing in the corner of the room
He would see her every Friday night
Watching all the guys hold her so tight
Looks in her eyes
But she doesn't even know his name
He would give her just anything
To hear her voice
To hear her sing
";I love you";
Climbing mountains so high
He won't give in
Risk the thin thread of life
To find his dream
There is no turning back
In the face of attack
Looking for the key of her heart
She's the reason of his dreams
Heroine to his pirate king
Marylin to his Jimmy Dean
Swept away to the sound of violins
Friday night and it's all for real
She don't know just how he feels
Maybe this could be her lucky day
He would give her just anything
To hear her voice
To hear her sing
";I love you";
Climbing mountains so high
He won't give in
Risk the thin thread of life
To find his dream
There is no turning back
In the face of attack
Looking for the key of her heart
Don't read Marx
He's a clean cut guy
Just the dream
On a TV eye
If you swim
In the dark
You lose a hand
When you feed the shark
Little rich boy
She's gonna find you
Little rich boy, yeah
Little rich boy
Those claws will blind you
Just a little rich boy
She got hooks
In your veins
Feel the pleasure
Kill the pain
Drop a pearl
See the dragon fly
Crack the diamond
Do you still feel high?
Little rich boy
She's gonna find you
Little rich boy, yeah, yeah
Little rich boy
Those claws will blind you
Just a little rich boy
Hey, rich boy
It's too late, no
Real life rich boy
But you can wait
Little rich boy
She's gonna find you
Little rich boy
Little rich boy
Those claws will blind you
Just a little rich boy
Just a little rich boy
Wheels turn, smoke rise
Chrome wings, low ride
The freeway, red line
To city lights electric I glide
If there's escape from your illusion
You gotta break the whole constitution
A concrete, touch sky
Main street, the dogs lie
Steel bird and black tie
Is this what they call the freedom you buy?
Look at him behind the delusion
All you hear is the voice of confusion
The bad boy's back
The bad boy's back in town, oh yeah
The bad boy's back
Don't you shoot him down
Wheels spin, ace high, no win, no life
One world, truth lies
Love's just a word on a red neon sign
If there's escape from the conclusion
You gotta shake the whole institution
The bad boy's back
The bad boy's back in town, oh yeah
The bad boy's back
Don't you shoot him down
If there's escape from your illusion
You gotta break the whole constitution
The bad boy's back
The bad boy's back in town, oh yeah
The bad boy's back
Don't you shoot him down
I said, the bad boy's back
The bad boy's back in town, oh yeah
The bad boy's back
In the dead of the night
On the wings of the wind
I hear the ocean bell
With a flash of the light
In the beat of the dark
The sound I know so well
I shall never forget you
Itïs been so long
I should never have left you
The call so strong
CHORUS
Itïs a far cry from a wild world
I want to get back to you
Such a long road, to the homeland
I must make my way to a far cry
From the chords of the earth
To the depths of the sea
I will return
As I look to the hill
Through the eyes of the storm
I touch the flame
I shall never forget you
Itïs been so long
I should never have left you
The call so strong
CHORUS
Itïs such a far cry
====================================================================
This problem is insoluble
The answers seem impossible
The logic ceases to exist
Emotion is the beat we miss
I stand on a world
Where dreams, realities, existence are the same
We take from the mother's skin
But the world is not to blame
Who tells the wind which way to blow?
I wonder who will stop the rain
The rocks that hold the secrets, they don't know
So who can stop the rain?
We've lost the path for all we know
Now tell me when will it start again?
And as the old man lifts his hands
Please can you stop the rain?
Stars fall far away
Like they never did before
A new moon shining
Like it never will again
Desert white cloud
Spirits they sing
Rain falls from the big sky
Onto broken wing
There is no sense in turning back
To wash the debris from the track
World without fears without rhyme
We fought for peace within our time
If I whispered words, would you hear them now?
Would you cross the deepest seas?
In the fiercest winds, on the burning trail,
Seal it with your word.
If I whispered words, would you keep a lie?
Would you promise me till time?
So if we grow old and the distance parts,
So seal it with your word.
Oh, I'll scream upon the hill,
So, you can hear me still.
Now, will we ever fade?
I seal it with my word.
If I whispered words, would you hear them now?
Would you cross the deepest seas?
In the fiercest winds, on the burning trail,
Gazing at our sunrise
Reflected in your clear eyes
Misty morning forest smoke fires
Make our way through the broken day
I couldn't stand to stay
Without you
We must keep moving
While the light is clearing
Leaving your dark world behind you
You have to run
Life is just begun
I'll never be alone
Without you
One chilling thought
Come screaming through the dark
I saw a yellow moon at midnight
And now you woke
Glowing in the smoke
I'm suddenly alone
Without you
Wanting things the way they used to be
You don't know what that can do to me
One more day, maybe never
Might as well be forever
Outside the light,fading as I write
And another night reminds me
As I sleep, memory that I keep
It's just another night
Without you
It seems so long
I've been holding on
Since I felt my arms around you
Time will go, both of us will know
Never be a day
Wishing, hoping
How can I keep coping
'Til I know your wish is
To be with me
You go, I know
You were the one who told me so
I'm wishing you lying
In my arms again
Sad, so sad
It's written across my face
My tears leave no trace
They fall and disappear
Mad, so mad
Leaving you on your own
Your right to disown me
Will always be so clear
Wishing, so long
How can I keep holding on
While missing you
Wishing you home again
Sad, so sad
It's written across my face
My tears leave no trace
They fall and disappear
Mad, so mad
Leaving you on your own
Your right to disown me
Will always be so clear
Wishing, wishing, wishing
Wishing, so long
How can I keep holding on
When this song
Is wishing you home again
Wishing, wishing, wishing, wishing
It was a lie, nothing was real
Just a disguise you?re using, you?re using still
When you meet the preacher man remind him of your fear
Over which you operate, operate control
When the truth is recalled, the evidence resound
It?s the price you?ll pay on the rebound
Wish I'd known all along
What you?re running from
Wish I?d known all along
You can?t choose between weak, weak or strong
But you?re not there to turn the key
On your own two feet, two feet on the ground
Get a grip right on to the situation
Try to choose what you choose to ignore
Wish I'd known all along
What you?re running from
Wish I?d known all along
You can?t choose between weak, weak or strong
Your time has come, it?s not too late
Don?t hesitate, hesitate
Wish I'd known all along
What you?re running from
Wish I?d known all along
What you?re running from
When the present destroys the past
Wish I'd known all along
What you?re running from
Wish I?d known all along
You can?t choose between weak, weak or strong
When the present destroys the past
They decorated all the generals
Who fought the war behind the lines
They had forgotten all the soldiers
The brandy puts them way behind the times
Insanity has found its way to TV screens
Vision seems impossible to me
They fight for king and country
I never would have thought this in my
Wildest dreams
Wildest dreams
Wildest dreams
Wildest dreams
The evening comes, we sit and watch the VJs
Clips and rushes come from, who knows where
From Washington across to California
With fighting breaking out in Leicester Square
We see the soldiers moving on to victory
And children trampled under marching feet
They fight for king and country
How many millions will they put to sleep?
Wildest dreams
Wildest dreams
Wildest dreams
Wildest dreams
Fly away
No, not in this world
No, not in the next
No, not in my wildest dreams
They recommended euthanasia
For non-conformers anywhere
Some men's dreams for others turn to nightmares
This never would have happened in their
Wildest dreams
Wildest dreams
Wildest dreams
Wildest dreams
Fly away
No, not in this world
No, not in the next
Whenever your shadow falls on stony ground
And there's not a hand for you to hold
Whenever the dreams you dream come crashing down
Every time you think of home
Remember that you're not alone
And we'll be with you heart and soul
Wherever you are
And if you should lose the path along the way
And find yourself walking in the dark
Whenever the ones you love seem far away
Every time you think of home
Remember that you're not alone
And we'll be with you heart and soul
Wherever you are
Whenever the fears you hide come reaching through
Every time you think of home
Remember that you're not alone
And we'll be with you heart and soul
Every time you think of home
Remember that you're not alone
And we'll be with you heart and soul
And we'll be with you heart and soul
We'll be with you heart and soul
Wherever you are, wherever you are
We're with you heart and soul
We're with you heart and soul
We're with you heart and soul
We're with you heart and soul
We're with you heart and soul
We're with you heart and soul
We're with you heart and soul
Was a dark day through old eyes again
As the flames rise to lick blue wounds again
See the chrome claw kiss the black sky into again
Hear the pin fall like a steel fist on stone again
When we were young, we were strong
We'd belong, close at heart
So in time, as the powers dies
We must belong, till we fall
We fall apart
In the neon dawn we will rise again
From the thin shell deep inside the wall
When we were young, we were strong
We'd belong, close at heart
So in time, as the powers dies
We must belong, till we fall
We fall apart
When we were young, we were strong
We'd belong, close at heart
So in time, as the powers dies
We must belong, till we fall
I heard you on the radio, some other time
From some forgotten studio, way down the lines
So long, so long I've waited now, to hear you again
That song, that song will still remain, it's become a friend
And now, the tears are in my eyes, the sound you can't disguise
The truth comes back from lies, and all I want to hear
Voice of America, oh America
Voice of America, oh America
And then you came in stereo, calling to me
And so I watch the videos, across the TV
That sound, still ringing in my ears, from a decade ago
Around, around my head, the sound from my radio
I thought, that after all these year, the tears of the growing fears
That I would never hear, never again
Voice of America, oh America
Voice of America, oh America
Voice of America, oh America
Don't tell me what you are
Don't tell me what you're after
Don't tell me what you want
Don't tell me what you need
Aren't you just the one to always point the finger?
I don't care for you 'cos you don't care for me
Bring me down
Bring me down
I could breathe, I could fly
The day before you came
Think you own my skin now
Break the chains, free the slave
Turn the tides against you
Talking to the sky you promise evolution
Progression of the mind by selling of the soul
The last will be the first in the dust of revolution
Someone cares for me but no one cares for you
Bring me down
Bring me down
U bring me down, you're giving me no hope
(Bring me down)
Sucking off our land, blowing off the smoke
Virus in the veins that run into the sea
Poisoning the world with your generosity
U bring me down, you're killing me with lies
(Bring me down)
You take away our ears won't take away my eyes
The red, red sea will return into the vein
Will I breathe? Will I see?
Far beneath the clearest stream
To the deepest ocean
Break the chains, free the slaves
Give back the blood, that you claim from this world now
U bring me down, you're giving me no hope
(Bring me down)
Sucking off our land, blowing off the smoke
Virus in the veins that run into the sea
Poisoning the world with your generosity
U bring me down, you're killing me with lies
(Bring me down)
You take away our ears won't take away my eyes
The red, red sea will return into the vein
Covering the world, are you happy with your gain?
U bring me down, you're giving me no hope
(Bring me down)
Sucking off our land, blowing off the smoke
Virus in the veins that run into the sea
Poisoning the world with your generosity
U bring me down, you're killing me with lies
(Bring me down)
You take away our ears won't take away my eyes
The red, red sea will return into the vein
Covering the world, are you happy with your gain?
U bring me down, you're giving me no hope
(Bring me down)
Sucking off our land, blowing off the smoke
Virus in the veins that run into the sea
Poisoning the world with your generosity
U bring me down, you're killing me with lies
(Bring me down)
You take away our ears won't take away my eyes
The red, red sea will return into the vein
Took the ground,
From underneath my feet.
Silent town,
Ghosts this empty street.
I see the home that once was mine,
Now just bones of former life.
Touch this page of sacred time, again,
I see you call...
You don't have to be strong for me.
I won't shoot your defences down.
Whatever happens, I want you to see
We can face it together.
And turn it around.
A new life
Grows within his hands.
Coming back
To this promised land.
And with these bones we will rebuild,
To the flesh of future life.
Giving back that sacred time, again...
You don't have to be strong for me.
I won't shoot your defences down.
Whatever happens, I want you to see,
We can face it together.
This evening really came as some surprise
It showed me just how little faith
I think back when you couldn't criticize
You sure were glad to see my face
True colors, giving away your lies
True colors, seeing them in your eyes
True colors, giving away your lies
True colors, seeing them in your eyes, eyes
For you the tables turn full circle now
And all those people you call friends
See who defends you when you're down again
Don't count on money-spinners then
True colors, maybe you'll see them then
True colors, twisting the knife again
True colors, maybe you'll see them then
True colors, twisting the knife again
You did what you wanted to do
I lived to fight another day
And I know what I want you to do
Just pack your bags and get away
Away
Away
Away
Away
True colors, giving away your lies
True colors, seeing them in your eyes
True colors, giving away your lies
I say, no way
You've gone and stepped across that fine line
I cried, you lied
I tried, maybe a thousand times before
I can't take no more
Too late
You let the sun go down
Too late
You changed direction
Too late
For you to turn around
We tried everything
Move on, so long
Two side to every story
You told, good nights
Bad days, time to go our separate ways
I can't say no more
Too late
You let the sun go down
Too late
You changed direction
Too late
For you to turn around
We tried everything
Too late
You let the sun go down
Too late
You changed direction
Too late
For you to turn around
We tried everything
Too late
Listen Away
Too late
Listen Away
Too late
Listen Away
Too late
Listen Away
Too late
You let the sun go down
Too late
You changed direction
Too late
For you to turn around
Too late
You let the sun go down
Too late
Too late
For you to turn around
Too late
Too late
Too late
Too late
Too late
Hey you, you're walking down a new york street
Feel the tension in the midday heat
You're walking on blood
Tv, it's all there on a japanese screen
East, west, there's no in between
Now, we just love "the reds"
Everything is now because the past is dead
You've got to look forward if you want to get ahead
What kind of person sells a young person drugs?
You bring them up good but don't call them thugs
Third world stories, well they make the news
It's a five minute wonder, call it...
Satellite blues
Any way the wind blows
Dive, dive! underground is just the place to be
So cool, it keeps the city clean
Now walk on by
I said "walk, walk, don't run!"
Don't you know you've got to follow the signs?
This life's so cruel, so cruel to be kind
It's a one-way street
You've got to live on the edge just to make a big deal
This life's big fun, man, it's like a roulette wheel
What kind of world would let these children die?
There's so much money we could all retire
We could all live happily if we choose
But it's a five minute wonder, call it...
Satellite blues
When you wake, I'll be gone
Just a space, an empty chair
And I know, I was wrong
Just one more time, then I'll be gone
Who stopped the sky from falling?
Who held you back from harm?
Who stood as walls were falling?
A call still guides us on
Chorus:
It's a sad situation
And no one's to blame
I'ts a sad situation
Now you're gone
It's a sad situation
Which someday may change
It's a sad situation
Now you're gone
In the dawn, turn the page
We stand alone, as the lions rage
I suppose we'll move on
A fight of minds, that still breathe strong
Who stopped the sky from falling?
Who held you back from harm?
Who held you close when hurting?
Who keeps the doves of hope?
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
Tired and washed out by the pain
Do we share this problem, will it slip away?
Do we fight another day?
Was I looking for a friend?
One I count on 'til the end
Is there something that I didn't do?
Does it all begin with you?
So how did I, oh I
Give you reason?
How did I, oh I
Give you reason?
After all the fallen tears
When we wake the token dream
Who let the water slowly draw away?
All the colors that we made
So how did I, oh I
Give you reason?
So turn and walk away
How did I, oh I
Give you reason?
To give you reason, to change the river's flow
To give you reason, to point the bone
To give you reason, to set your spirit free
I don't know, I don't know why
So how did I, oh I
Give you reason?
Is there nothing I can say?
Is there nothing I can do, girl?
I didn't mean to break your life
Didn't mean to burn your world, no
How did I, oh I
Give you reason?
How did I, oh I
Give you reason?
You can keep the silver band
You can have the memories, girl
Now as Pilate cleans the hands
It's no more to do with me, no
How did I, oh I
Give you reason?
How did I, oh I
Give you reason?

"what passing-bells for these who die as cattle?
- only the monstrous anger of the guns.
Only the stuttering rifles' rapid rattle
Can patter out their hasty orisons.
No mockeries now for them; no prayers nor bells;
Nor any voice of mourning save the choirs, -
The shrill, demented choirs of wailing shells;
And bugles calling for them from sad shires."
(wilfred owen, 1918)
Now the day has run
When the cover comes
But any fool can see
Ahead
Silence is my friend
But it has to end
Any fool can see
Ahead
It's the longest night
It's the longest night
Cold winds may blow
On the longest night
So we write our letters
To those far away
Any fool can see
Ahead
The distant sound of thunder
A choir of wailing shells
Any fool can see
Ahead
It's the longest night
It's the longest night
Cold winds may blow
On the longest night
I don't want to fight
I don't know who's right
Cold winds they blow
On this longest night
It's the longest night
It's the longest night
Cold winds may blow
On this longest night
He kept it all inside - alive and screaming
Tears were not his style, his pride was leading
I watched the light dancing on the sea
As it turned to grey
Oh, how I wish that the tide would soon return
Someday, someday
I've a right to cry
That's not giving in
Scars from you and i, scars we kept within
There's a right to cry, it's not giving up
With my right to cry, now I've had enough
It's hard to break the bones of life, of living
A side you'll never show, let go, don't need it
Hold on, hold on, hold on
I can see in your eyes and I know how you're going to feel
I watched the light dancing on the sea
As it turned to grey
Oh, how I wish that the tide would soon return
Someday, someday
I've a right to cry
That's not giving in
Scars from you and i, scars we kept within
There's a right to cry, it's not giving up
Tomorrow the world will seem a little clearer
The planets align, and all will be revealed
Don't question it all, your dream is getting nearer
And you can tell the world just how you feel,
Oh...
The spinning roulette wheel
The lap of the gods
The odds are so good now
But the goods are all very odd
Tomorrow the world will be more simpatico
Tomorrow the world won't make you feel so small
Whenever the world is threatening to be so
Just wrap it all up, and throw it like a ball
The eye of a black cat
One turn of a card
A foot of a rabbit
And your world is falling apart
Just think what you can do
You can turn it around
You do what you have to
And you will be standing your ground
Don't walk away, don't you give up
Don't walk away, and please don't cry
Or say goodbye...
A dollar will get you ten that you'll be happy
But is that really all that you can see
The planet will not have changed but one iota
For as I give, the world will give to me...
Four leaves of a shamrock
May be your best shot
Your ship is in dry dock
'Cos you'll never be what you're not
Don't walk away, don't you give up
Don't walk away, and please don't cry
Fate looks certain but there's nothing guaranteed
Want for nothing, but is nothing what you need?
Always pushing but you're never satisfied
I did believe you 'til I found out that you lied
{chorus}
Time and time again
Time and time again again
For what I give you I get nothing in return
Can't forgive you watching all your bridges burn
All day long I sat and watched you do it wrong
Have to say that's how you did it all along
{chorus}
But others wouldn't see things you could only see
And someone showed you that I wasn't only me
You knew the limit you were always out of bounds
How could I trust you when I caught you messing 'round
When the doubts you have begin to show
When the winds of change begin to blow your dream away
As the winter cold can touch the bone
And like a crowd, voices in your mind
But as the thunder dies, you're standing on your own
Even in your darkest night
When the shadows hide the guiding light that leads the way alone
And heaven seems to turn it's head
Sometimes, to break away the ties
You have to find the strength to carry on
Fight against the tide
To cut the hardest stone
Fight against the tide
The blood begins to flow
Hold on, through the storm could take your life
Be strong and you will survive
You won't give in
Even though the walls around you fall
No don't give in
Still the flames alive
'till the end of time
And so you fight against the tide
When the doubts you have begin to show
When the winds of change begin to blow your dream away
When the fire has left your soul
Look straight ahead
In the face of fear
Take on the world and all it has to give
Fight against the tide
To cut the hardest stone
Fight against the tide
The blood begins to flow
Hold on, through the storm could take your life
Many days I've traveled, but I know not where I'm going to
I'm lost, lost along the way
From Mexico to Paris, always the same solitary circle
In an empty cafe
Their faces were so empty, meaningless and negative to me
I could have died
The bodies and the strangers reflected in their glasses as they drank
Not seeing eye to eye
Ride easy my friends, this journey ends
Before it begins
Ride easy my friends, this story ends
Before it begins
Long dead winter, when I thought that spring would never come again
Melting the snow
Many days I've reveled, evenings through to mornings through to evenings
With nothing to show
Ride easy my friends, this journey ends
Before it begins
Ride easy my friends, this story ends
Before it begins, oh
Their faces were so empty, meaningless and negative to me
I could have died
The bodies and the strangers, reflected in their glasses as they drank
Not seeing eye to eye
Many days I've traveled, going 'round in social circles lost
Lost along the way
Many nights I've reveled, but I thought I saw the message in a bottle
And drifting away
Ride easy my friends, this journey ends
Before it begins
Ride easy my friends, this story ends
The battlefield, the smoke has cleared
Silence in sight, the blood lies deep
Look from the hills, the valley calls
Six hundred fall, a lost to all
Someday, somewhere, ever calling
One time, one life, ever falling
Chorus:
And will you remember
The flowers in the fields?
And will you remember
The loss of one so dear
And will you remember
Through the mist of lies?
Remember
Their spirit never dies
Remember
Out of the skies, and into the green
Fuelled by the lies, paid by soul
Soldire, hero, well 'uncle sam'
He don't wanna know
It's down your wire, it's on your screen
Pirate satellite, next to MTV
Insert your hand, subscription free
It's reality
Put on the suit, connect the chord
Free mind of city life, just ecstasy
Don't block the flow, only you can see
Your reality
And as the programme runs surely to the screen
You can't hold back, you're in
Reality - so virtual
Reality - machinery
Designed by me, but physical
Reality, just anything you want to see
Is it wrong it's in your mind
Banned by the chosen ones, how they rule your life
Exit that page, enter brave new world
From reality
And as the programme runs surely to the screen
You can't hold back, you're in
Reality - so virtual
Reality - machinery
Designed by me, but physical
On the street below these walls
Where I used to walk, now I can barely crawl
All this darkness rising tall
Lord, shine a light for me I'm waiting to be called
I'm ready to go home
I'm ready to receive
Forgiveness for my sins
I'm ready to begin
Take this river to the sea
Where the delta flows, the tide is washing over me
Guide this soul to Heaven's door
Show me where tomorrow lies, I'm waiting to be home
I'm ready to lay down
I'm ready now to sleep
A promise I must keep
I'm ready to go home
Sometimes I lay down with these memories
Breathe shallow, deep inside of me
And time has run its course with me
And I'm ready to go home
When the evening shadows fall
When the time has come, I let defenses fall
To surrenders to survive
I will give up everything to those I leave behind
I'm ready to go home
I'm ready to receive
Forgiveness for my sins
I'm ready to begin
I'm ready to lay down
I'm ready now to sleep
A promise I must keep
So many faces in my life and time
Couldn't change the way I feel
I was hard wired to forgot
To live and love with no regret
And when I stumbled in the darkest night
Just when I thought that there could be no light
You came along, and you should know
Look in my eyes, the truth will show...
I'll be faithful, that's what I do
Ever faithful, my aim is true
Wherever you may go, you'll always know
Faithful, I'll be with you
I've been a stray all of my life, you see
I thought nothing would ever change for me
Now I've found you, here I stay
May it always be that way...
'Cause
I'll be faithful, that's what I do
Ever faithful, my aim is true
Wherever you may go, you'll always know
Faithful, I'll be with you
You came along and you should know
Midnight, firelight
Sympathy
Hold on, sit tight
Talk to me
Tell me, 'cause I know how you feel
You're destined, you, to hold on to
The fear inside
So let it go, with tears that flow
Purified
'Cos I know, I know how you feel
Yeah I know, I know how you feel
Somehow we find ourselves
Where others will not dare to go
Our lives become intertwined
Now you know this will always be so...
Daybreak, this heartache
Will be gone
Black clouds will clear, then disappear
Here comes the sun
I know, I know how you feel
Yeah I know, I know how you feel
It's alright, it's okey
Just lean on me
Trust me, and you'll see
How it can be
Tell me, I know how you feel
Yeah I know, I know how you feel
I know, exactly how you feel
Now it's time to put the past behin us
I want to see you shining like the sun
Always reaching higher keep it all in mind
Now we got to take it all the way today
'Cause I'm a runner with the wind
I'm a gypsy soul
I am calling you again
Now it's time to go
I'm a runner with the wind
I'm a gypsy soul
There will always be tomorrow
Gypsy soul
I hear you say you want to stay with me now
There comes a day when you know witch way to turn
Not very far until we're finally home
It's time for us to head on down that road again
'Cause I'm a runner with the wind
I'm gypsy soul
I am calling you again
Now it's time to go
I'm a runner with the wind
I'm a gypsy soul
There will always be tomorrow
I'm a gypsy soul
Gypsy soul
Gypsy soul
To only you and I
(Payne/Downes)
Kelly stands by the water
With a gun in her hand
She won't believe in the future
In a world made by man
There's nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
With so much to say and no time
Have we gone too far?
In a world so scarred
Have we gone too far?
Dream away
Joseph stands in the desert
With a gun in his hand
Brother still killing brother
Cold within this eastern land
There's nowhere to run
There's nowhere to hide
With so much to do and no time
Have we gone too far?
In a world so scarred
Have we gone too far?
Dream away
Gone too far
In a world so scarred
Have we gone too far?
Dream away
There must be some other way
A hundred years from green to grey
Close my eyes I'm safe today
Blindly fade away
Gone too far
In a world so scarred
Have we gone too far?
Dream away
(Payne/Downes/Sherwood)
I've been hearing voices
Voices in my head
Can't escape the noises
Lying in my bed
The winter nights grow colder
The darkness falls too soon
I will hide till morning
How silent is this moon?
Just one look and I will find
Someone else on the other side
A trick of light or the darker mind
Ghost in the mirror
And as the dawn is waking
The shadows burn away
The sun reborn the savior
The safety of the day
Just one look and I will find
Someone else on the other side
A trick of light or the darker mind
Ghost in the mirror
The darkness calls me
The shadows fool me
Is it safe on the other side?
Is this my future?
If it's a dream why can't I wake?
Just one look and I will find
Someone else on the other side
A trick of light or the darker mind
It seems such a long year
Since our eyes last met.
You were a lone child,
I have no regrets.
Oh, you know sometimes how I wonder,
If I am a fool.
The rocks that are pulling me under
Are heading a fall.
Dont be afraid
Youre not alone, now
By the guard of angels
A new rock will rise
As mountains cut sky, now
Heaven knows
Never, never,
I could never lose my faith in you
(could I ever break my faith to you)
Never, never,
Will I ever turn my back on you
You must be strong now
And stand as a man.
As I will be leaving,
Leaving this land.
Sometimes I wonder,
If I am a fool.
The rocks that are pulling me under
Are heading a fall.
Time and tide,
Are the dreams that come and go,
They wait for no man on the shore.
Should you step,
In the same dark river twice,
Let it wash the sins away,
Is there time at hand,
With so much to say?
And I know, it's a different world today,
And I know, to another God we pray,
And I know, we're in different worlds today.
Here I stand,
My philosophy held high,
Like a preacher in a foreign land.
And here we walk,
In the wilderness of sands,
With the prophet and the holy man.
Is there time at hand,
With so much to say?
And I know, it's a different world today,
And I know, to another God we pray,
And I know, we're in different worlds today,
And I know, it's a different world today.
They're burning the book, they're burning the faith,
Our dream will be over,
Let's wake from the sleep, a legion we'll be,
To live forever.
I know I as wrong, I have to put it right,
I just can't let it slip away,
'cause it's a different world today.
Different world, different world, different world today,
I'll go whichever way the winds blow
It's hard to swim against the tide
The willow bends in a tornado
The oak will shatter as it dies
Save me, and give me the peace to surrender at last
When I'm gone, do this thing for me
For this is my final day, and you know I would not joke
So bury me in willow, not in oak
Give me no standard, no eulogy
No red, white and blue, no sceptre and no cloak
Just bury me in willow, not in oak
A life of conflict was unending
Collision, damage, disarray
So blind, intolerant, unbending
Just let me die a different way
Free me, 'n' give me the beautiful silence at last
When I'm gone, do this thing for me
For this is my final day, and you know I would not joke
So bury me in willow, not in oak
Give me no standard, no eulogy
No red, white and blue, no sceptre and no cloak
Standing alone in solitude
Holding your head in your hands
Tears play like rain on your fingertips
Who but yourself is to blame?
How could I offer sympathy?
When all I feel is pure rejection
I was the first one to really know your name
You were the first one for me
But everyone knew but me
You were the first one to ever let me down
And I was just the last to know
I was the fool who trusted you
No evil thoughts in my mind
When I saw you going out with him
Who could I blame, for this deception?
I was the first one to really know your name
You were the first one for me
But everyone knew but me
You were the first one to ever let me down
And I was just the last to know
I was the first one to really know your name
You were the first one for me
But everyone knew but me
You were the first one to ever let me down
And I was just the last to know
I was the first one to really know your name
You were the first one for me
But everyone knew but me
You were the first one to ever let me down
And I was just the last to know
I was the first one to really know your name
You were the first one for me
But everyone knew but me
You were the first one to ever let me down
It don't come easy, that's understood
Faint-hearted loser, that's no good
Just take a lesson from the great mohammed
He said... he said...
Pick up a rifle, you must be strong
To take a title, can be so long
If you believe, you can't go wrong
I said... I said...
He's a fighter, he's my friend,
Always winning in the end,
He's no angel, he's no fool,
Never plays it by the rule,
Take the glory, steal the prize,
Only the hunter, only the hunter
You took your chances, you hurt your pride
A sense of failure, is hard to hide
You crossed the limit, you broke the code
Back on the road... remember?
He's a rival, he's my friend,
Always winning in the end,
He's a tiger, he's a swan,
He's the one I'm counting on,
To take the glory, steal the prize,
Only the hunter, only the hunter survives
I'm on the outside, I'm looking in
Through the lenses, then into film
I've got the target set in my sights
I see a vision of truth... look out!
We're gonna fight until we drop,
We're gonna get back to the top,
We're gonna be the first in line,
Winners till the end of time
Only the hunter, only the hunter,
Only the hunter, only the hunter,
You walk tall, got your head in the clouds
You talk soft but you're thinkin' aloud
And you know exactly what you want
You talk shy, you're hard to get
You got the face that I can't forget
And I know, I know the heat goes on
I know that the heat goes on
I know that the heat goes on
You play tight, you're nobody's fool
You're not cold but I know that you're cool
Look at you, I know the heat goes on
Now tell me with your hand on your heart
That you knew you were right from the start
And you're sure you felt it all along
You know that the heat goes on
You know that the heat goes on
Times to decide, times that I've lied
Problems will never be solved
Which way is wrong, which could be right?
This heat will always go on, on and on
You walk tall, got your head in the clouds
You talk soft but you're thinkin' aloud
And you know exactly what you want
You talk shy, you're hard to get
You got the face that I'll never forget
You and I know, we know the heat goes on
You know that the heat goes on
You know that the heat goes on
You know that the heat goes on
I told her, I'd hold her
All through that first cold winter
Defend her, protect her
From our darkest demons
Then spring came, our world changed
We found a different corner
Still heading, still searching
For what we had that season
I thought I was so strong, a man on a blue mountain
The sword in my hand, but my thoughts in the clouds then
See them
Hear them
I would never change another day
If that season was the one to stay
I swear I'd never change another day
Ten years now, I've waited
For that coldest winter
No whiter, no wiser
And all we hear is thunder
I thought I was so strong, a father on a mountain
The sword in my hand, but my thoughts in the clouds then
See them
Hear them
I would never change another day
If that season was the one to stay
I swear I'd never change another day
(repeat)
Ten years now, I've waited
For that coldest winter
No wiser, no whiter
Tears in my eyes
Tears in my eyes
Feeling like there's nothing left to say
Maybe I should wait for another day, one more day
Tried to find myself, but now you're gone
I had to find the strength to carry on, carry on
Ghosts of love will come, now the light is gone
Haunting my soul, never letting go
Losing you would always be my fear
Never knowing if you'd still be here, still be here
Remembering the words you said to me
Saying that you had to set me free, set me free
Run through the fields like a child who's closing the door
(Lonely like the wind)
You're feeling the wind, now the sun don't shine
(Echoes back again)
Tears in my eyes, how they fall like rain to the floor
(Ghosts of love will come)
Where do you go when the summer's gone?
(Now the light is gone)
Walking away is the same as closing the door
(Haunting my soul)
Can you look at the sky when the sun don't shine?
(Never letting go)
Look in my eyes, you can see my dreams on the floor
(Through my broken dreams)
Where do I go now the summer is gone?
(Hear you calling me)
Tears in my eyes, how they fall like rain to the floor
(Ghosts of love will come)
Where do you go when the summer's gone?
(Now the light is gone)
Walking away is the same as closing the door
(Haunting my soul)
Can you look at the sky when the sun don't shine?
(Never letting go)
Look in my eyes, you can see my dreams on the floor
(Through my broken dreams)
Where do I go now the summer is gone?
(Hear you calling me)
Run through the fields like a child who's closing the door
(Lonely like the wind)
You're feeling the wind, now the sun don't shine
(Echoes back again)
Tears in my eyes, how they fall like rain to the floor
(Ghosts of love will come)
Where do you go when the summer's gone?
(Now the light is gone)
Walking away is the same as closing the door
(Haunting my soul)
Can you look at the sky when the sun don't shine?
(Never letting go)
Look in my eyes, you can see my dreams on the floor
(Through my broken dreams)
Where do I go now the summer is gone?
Where were you yesterday?
I called you up, no one answered
The phone rings now
All the time I pick it up
No one answers
I know it seems like I just can't go ahead
Sometimes it's like holding a gun to my head
I get the green light but I'm still seeing red
Somethin' I can't stand
Suspicion
In the park yesterday
I saw a face that spelled danger
Friendly smile, a worried look
I mistook for a stranger
I keep on fighting and I know I can't win
Something's biting me, I'll never give in
Coming back to me again and again
The message in my hand
Suspicion, suspicion
Eating away at me, it won't let go
Suspicion is following, everywhere I go
He walks before me, he's someone that I don't know
Suspicion, suspicion
Where were you yesterday?
I'm looking at your photograph
The picture on my wall
Life's too short for memories
I can't have it all
You gave me the run around
So we go our own sweet ways
I'll be making the most of summertime
Crazy nights and lazy days
Summer can't last too long
Summer can't last too long
Spring, winter or fall but out of 'em all
The summer can't last too long
One night can seem a lifetime
And I've got no more time to lose
Sunshine on my shoulders
Kissing away my blues, ohh
Summer can't last too long
Summer can't last too long
Spring, winter or fall but out of them all
The summer can't last too long, ohh
Summer can't last too long
Summer can't last too long
Spring, winter or fall but out of them all
The summer can't last too long
(Ooo ooh)
Ohh ohh, oh ohh ohh oh ohh
(Ooo ooh)
Looking to the future
Searching for the girl
Not too much like the last one
Just the prettiest in the world
Summer can't last too long
Summer can't last too long
Spring, winter or fall but out of them all
The summer can't last too long
Yea, yea
Summer can't last too long
Summer can't last too long
Spring, winter or fall but out of them all
The summer can't last too long
(Ooo ooh ooh)
Summer can't last too long
Summer can't last too long
(Ooo ooh ooh, ooo ooh ooh)
Summer can't last too long
Summer can't last too long
(Ooo ooh ooh, ooo ooh ooh)
(Ooo ooh ooh, ooo ooh ooh)
Don't want to live in another world
Don't want to dream of another girl
That's the way it was meant to be, oh oh
I couldn't sleep through the lonely night
I just cried till the morning
It's not the way it was meant to be
Someday you may find somebody else
Someday love may shine on you
Someday you may find the one
You didn't leave me, you ran away
Couldn't face what you had to say
It's not the way it was meant to be, no no
Now you can live in your other world
Me, I've found me another girl
And that's the way that it has meant to be
Someday you may find somebody else
Someday love may shine on you
Someday you may find the one
When I dream, I dream of one world
But I know there's no such place
If I could ever find that one girl
In my world, in my world
Someday, someday, someday
Someday you may find somebody else
Someday love may shine on you
Someday you may find the one
Someday you may find somebody else
Someday love may shine on you
When I ran the hounds of hell
twist my foot L I nearly fell.
I was lucky
I was alive - one look back
I could have died.
I was the sole survivor
sole survivor
Sole survivor
solitary fighter.
When I saw it
I was amazed. One time glory right in my gaze.
I saw the sorrow
I saw the joy -
Light in the darkness
none could destroy.
I am the sole survivor
sole survivor
. . .
And from the wreckage I will arise.
Cast the ashes back in their eyes.
See the fire I will defend
just keep on burnin' right to the end.
I'd be the sole survivor
sole survivor
. . .
Sole survivor
sole survivor
(Payne/Downes)
Shake the hand of time
With the builders of stone
Are you recognized?
You're not going home
Have to find a hideaway
So turn up the neighbors
The eagle is listening today
It's not up to me
To change what has been done
It's not up to me
A speechless world looks on
It just has to be!
Silent nation
No longer have a name
A number will do
Cutting the wires of doom
'Cos they're watching you
Raging in thought
Mouthless, the millions obey
So call off your dogs
You preachers of what we can say
It's not up to me
To change what has been done
It's not up to me
A speechless world looks on
It just has to be!
Silent nation
In a silent nation
We must change what has been done
It's a travesty
Silent nation
It's not up to me
To change what has been done
It's not up to me
A speechless world looks on
It just has to be!
She cried to the southern wind
About love that was sure to end
Every dream in her heart was gone
She's headin' for a showdown
She cried to the southern wind
About love that was sure to end
Every dream in her heart was gone
Headin' for a showdown
Bad dreamer, what's your name
Looks like we're ridin' on the same train
Looks like though there'll be more pain
There's gonna be a showdown
And it's rainin' all over the world
It's rainin' all over the world
Tonight's the longest night
She came to me like a friend
She blew in on a southern wind
Now my heart is turned to stone again
There's gonna be a showdown
Save me, oh, save me
It's unreal the suffering
There's gonna be a showdown
And it's rainin' all over the world
It's rainin' all over the world
It's rainin' all over the world
Tonight's the longest night
Rainin', rainin
Rainin', rainin
Rainin', rainin
Rainin' all over the world
Yes, it's rainin' all over the world
Tonight's the longest night
Rainin' all over the world
Rainin' all over the world
Tonight's the longest night
Tonight, she came to me
She came to me
She came to me
Bad dreamer, what's your name
She came to me
She came to me
Shadow of a Doubt
(Wetton/Downes)
Words trip from my tongue
Saying be strong, always be strong
Scenes flash past my eyes
Telling me here is where we belong
If you believe, what I believe
Then were home,
Yeah, were home
I should have seen it coming
I could have worked it out
Your feminine mentality
Reveals the things I cannot see
I should have seen it coming
I could have worked it out
The danger signs have left my mind,
Its way beyond a
SHADOW OF A DOUBT
So, it wont be long
Stay with me now, this can't be wrong
Its our right, to fly to the stars
Just for one night, this world is ours
If you believe what I believe
Then were home
Yeah, were home
I should have seen it coming
I could have worked it out
Your feminine mentality
Reveals the things I cannot see
I should have seen it coming
I could have worked it out
The danger signs have left my mind,
Its way beyond a
I've been flat out of luck
Spent my very last buck
Can't sink no lower than this
I'm so broken inside
Had to spit out my pride
This ain't no way to exist
Every place that I go
Everyone that I meet
Sees me like I'm some dog in the street
And it's bringing me down to my knees
Now I'm prayin', prayin'
Prayin' for a miracle
I'm prayin', prayin'
Prayin' for a miracle
Prayin' for a miracle
Since I left you that night
Less than nothing's gone right
Living this hell that I made
So I'm back at your feet
I'm admitting defeat
Girl, I never felt so afraid
Just give back my life
I admit my mistakes
Now I'm willing to do whatever it takes
I'm begging you now, can't you see
That I'm prayin', prayin'
Prayin' for a miracle
Prayin', prayin'
Prayin' for a miracle
Prayin' for a miracle
Don't walk away
'Cause I know I'm still worth saving
Can you forgive the way
I turned my back on you
And I'm prayin', prayin'
Prayin' for a miracle
Prayin', prayin'
Prayin' for a miracle
Prayin', prayin'
Prayin' for a miracle
(Prayin' for a miracle)
Prayin', prayin'
Prayin' for a miracle
(Prayin' for a miracle)
Prayin', prayin'
Prayin' for a miracle
(Prayin' for a miracle)
Prayin', prayin'
Prayin' for a miracle
(Prayin' for a miracle)
Prayin', prayin'
If our only chance was in today
Let it lift us up above someway
As the evening shadows fall
I?ll confide in you once more
Over, over and over again
We will resolve our true destiny
Only through love our passage guaranteed
Let it lift me up above
We are on a journey to where we can?t be sure
When we are as one it opens every door
I don?t want to take you across the great divide
This horizon?s nearer much easier to find
Don't taint this ground with the color of the past
Are the sounds in bloom with you?
Cause you feel like an orchard of mines
Just take one step at a time
And you seem to break like time
So fragile on the inside, you climb these grapevines
Would you look now unto the pit of me on the ground
And you wander through these to climb these grapevines...
I'll say it to be proud, won't have my life turn upside down
Says the man with some, with some gold forged plan
Of life so incomplete, like weights strapped around my feet
Tread careful one step at a time
And you seem to break like time
So fragile on the inside, you climb these grapevines
Would you look now unto the pit of me on the ground
And you wander through these to climb these grapevines...
To know, to feel, to play me once again
Do you denote from what we feel
Do you not know, i see you play the game
Do you denote...
La flama niposa, la ombra dispare
La noce immortale, la voce murmure
To know, to feel, to play me once again
Do you denote...
Do you not know, i see you play the game
What on earth are you doing here, in the western world?
Another situation yeah, you?re a different girl
You have lived your life dreaming, you were someone else
Succeeding?s, believing in yourself
Open your eyes
And see the world that stands before you now
Open your eyes
And see the world that stands in front of you
You have spent your days, trying for something new
You have looked at magazine girls, wishing that they were you
Do you see in photographs, an angel that once was you?
Does she tell you stories that are true?
Open your eyes
And see the world that stands before you now
Open your eyes
And see the world that stands in front of you
If I could stand with you right now and speak my mind
I would tell you no lies
I would shoot straight between the eyes
You have stared a thousand times, right into the lens
Have you ever thought just once, does it all make sense?
Your beauty?s eternal, so don?t just pretend
Got to wake up girl, or it?s the end
Open your eyes
And see the world that stands before you now
Open your eyes
And see the world that stands in front of you
Open your eyes
And see the world that stands before you now
Open your eyes
And see the world that stands in front of you
Open your eyes
Open your eyes
Open your eyes
You're leaving now it's in your eyes
There's no disguising it
It really comes as no surprise
To find that you planned it all along
I see it now becomes so clear
Your insincerity
And me all starry eyed
You think that I would have known by now
Now sure as the sun will cross the sky
This lie is over
Lost like the tears that used to tide
Me over
(Only time will tell)
One thing is sure
That time will tell
(Only time will tell)
If you were wrong
The brightest ring around the moon
Will darken when I die
Now sure as the sun will cross the sky
The lie is over
Gone like the tears that used to tide
Me over
You're leaving now it's in your eyes
There's no disguising it
It really comes as no surprise
To find that you planned it all along
(Only time will tell)
I see it now
Becomes so clear
(Only time will tell)
Your insincerity
And me all starry eyed
You think that I would have known by now
Now sure as the sun will cross the sky
This lie is over
Lost like the tears that used to tide
Me over
(Over, over, over)
(Only time will tell)
You're on your own
Inside your room
(Only time will tell)
You're claiming victory
You were just using me
And there is no one you can use now
(Only time will tell)
One thing is sure
That time will tell
Loneliness, a constant friend and lover
I know well
Crowded rooms the iron bar
That surround me
Trying hard to catch your eye
Just once, you see
Knowing from this moment if you did
We could be
{chorus}
One step closer
Closer than we are
One step closer
Closer than before
So many lines, you've heard them all
A lie in every one
From men who never understand
Your personality
And though we never even met
No talking needs to be done
The hum of conversation will disolve you
Into me
{chorus x2}
Do you remember years ago?
All our hopes would ebb and flow
We thought we'd find a promised land
Our footprints in the sand
The mysteries, the twists of fate
Have changed the path from love to hate
But won't erase sins of the past
They hide behind the mask
If I could conquer all our fears
Can forgiveness dry the tears?
If I falter, my soul I'll sell
On the coldest day in hell
I'll never let you down
How can I tell you now?
But only heaven knows
I won't let you go
I dream of demons through the night
A restless fever till morning light
My body's cold, my head's on fire
Give me back my life
Kill this ghost inside of me
Let me sail on deep blue seas
A new beginning, another page
Dawn gives in to day
I will conquer all our fears
Let forgiveness dry the tears
If I falter my soul I'll sell
On the coldest day in hell
I'll never let you down
How can I tell you now?
But only heaven knows
I won't let you go
I swear I'll stand my ground
How can I turn this round?
As this time heaven knows
I won't let you know
When I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming of you
When I'm breathing, I'm breathing with you
But only heaven knows
I won't let you go
Can I feel your hair soft on wet skin
Deep inside I bleed from the blade within
Can I reach the burning, burning moon
Can I change this madness, lust consume
Breathing out and breathing in - begin
Suddenly I wake from a calling sweat
Blood red water on my head
Was I only dreaming the flesh so real
What would another good sin reveal
Breathing out and breathing in
I can't fight the drug within
Feel the first hit to the heart
You're my shot, your my obsession
Hear the voices say
I can't turn and walk away - yeah
You're my shot, your my obsession
Hear the voices
Oh - how I need to hold onto fire to win
Pumping through my veins love's adrenalin
Can you hear those voices
Breathing out and breathing in
I can't fight the drug within
Feel the first hit to the heart
You're my shot, your my obsession
Hear the voices say
I can't turn and walk away - yeah
You're my shot, your my obsession
Nothing's Forever
(Wetton)
Last night I roamed in San Francisco
Tomorrow Shibuya is my home
I will be waiting in the darkness
In the pouring rain
And always Im alone
Walking the streets of New York City
Light years away from where Im born
I study the faces of the people
While Im standing in the shadows
Of their fi nal dawn
You know that NOTHINGS FOREVER
Its just for today
Cant live for the future, forget yesterday
And hold on to life, for in moments it can fade away
Maybe Im following too closely
Sometimes you feel youve had enough
Make the most of what you have today
Just hope and pray, for those you really love
You know that NOTHINGS FOREVER
Its just for today
Cant live for the future, forget yesterday
Nothing from nothing is nothing, Amen, so I say
NOTHINGS FOREVER
I'll see you in the castle,
Corner of Wigmore Street
We'll take a drink, and maybe think
Seek a sordid place where we can meet
More forgotten people, rain still teeming down
That's all there is to do,
In this desperate old town
But I still I keep on comin'
I daisy chain my life away
Gotta keep on doing nothing
Till the call on Judgement Day
Got no religion, just living hell
If I had money, I'd drop it all in a wishing well
Stand in the doorway, wait for the Man to come
Got no religion, and my life's just begun
Waiting for next Sarurday night,
When it all kicks off
Got a date with miss Ludo, Ludovica Nabokov
Nothing happened last weekend,
I guess it never will
It stays the same if I don't change,
There is no panacea pill
I try to change most everything,
I even change my name
I change my clothes, and I change my friends
But I end up still the same
"Change must come from within"
That's what the man said...
"Willingness is all you need,
Son - you're old, but you're not dead"
Got no religion, nowhere to run
Got nothing going, and I still can't feel the sun
Wait for a new day, a Messianic dawn
Same terraced houses
Plain evil, I know what's on your mind
Never say you're leaving me behind
No trouble, get that from the start
You know the cost of loving is your heart
I would never leave you
I would never go
I would never leave you
Never in a million
Never in a million
Never in a million years
Pure pleasure, the love that's in your eyes
You never give me feelings in disguise
Same fever, it comes on all the time
Always lets me know what's on your mind
I would never leave you
I would never go
I would never leave you
Never in a million
Never in a million
Never in a million years
Live angel, you come to me and cry
Like tears of joy come raining from the sky
I'd never leave you, you knew that from the start
I'll give it to you now straight from the heart
I would never leave you
(Never in a million years)
I would never go
(Never in a million years)
I would never leave you
(Never in a million years)
I would never go
(Never in a million years)
I would never leave you
(Never in a million years)
I would never go
I saw the universe, I held it in my hand
The planets and the stars, merely grains of sand
The darkness that I knew is no more
The sun will shine for me, of that I can be sure
This is the day, the day of my ascendance
A time for life, a time for independence
NEVER AGAIN will I bear arms against my brother
NEVER AGAIN will I dishonour anyone
NEVER AGAIN will I wish evil on another
NEVER AGAIN will I spill blood of any mothers son
The age of Gemini, a dazzling creation
A new enlightenment, a great illumination
Dark acts of history must never be repeated
I know I must treat you, the way Id be treated
This is the day, the day of liberation
A time for life, for new regeneration
NEVER AGAIN will I bear arms against my brother
NEVER AGAIN will I dishonour anyone
NEVER AGAIN will I wish evil on another
NEVER AGAIN will I spill blood of any mothers son
Im climbing now, Im gaining altitude
And now my hands can feel the grip
My head is spinning with a synergy
The power that takes me up and up
NEVER AGAIN will I bear arms against my brother
NEVER AGAIN will I dishonour anyone
NEVER AGAIN will I wish evil on another
Walking through the snow kicking my heels
Seems that sunlight never felt so good before
Bet you really don?t know how it feels
I don?t have to answer to no one no more
And better I?ve never felt
Nothing to show, but nothing to lose, I?m on my own
Cast your mind back not so long ago
I was always busy playing by the rules
Bet you thought I really didn?t know
You were double dealing, now you?re back at school
Something you didn?t learn
Faith in myself, gives me the strength to carry on
I?ll do what I want to anyway
I?ll do what I want and I?ll do it in, my own time
I?ll do what I want to anyway
I?ll do what I want and I?ll do it in, my own time
Don?t give that same old pack of lies
I?ll tell you the story how it really is
You think you always had me under ties
Someone better tell you that the table?s turned
Getting your fingers burned, how does it feel?
Now it?s for real this is the deal
I?ll do what I want to anyway
I?ll do what I want and I?ll do it in, my own time
I?ll do what I want to anyway
I?ll do what I want and I?ll do it in, my own time
Time is on my side again
And one thing I intend
Is to do it in my own time
I?ll do what I want to anyway
I?ll do what I want and I?ll do it in, my own time
I?ll do what I want to anyway
I?ll do what I want and I?ll do it in, my own time
Time is on my side again
And one thing I intend
Is I'll do it in my own time
I?ll do what I want to anyway
I?ll do what I want and I?ll do it in, my own time
I?ll do what I want to anyway
I?ll do what I want and I?ll do it in, my own time
I?ll do what I want to anyway
I?ll do what I want and I?ll do it in, my own time
I?ll do what I want to anyway
I?ll do what I want and I?ll do it in, my own time
My own time
My own time
My own time
My own time
In the movement of the waves
Feel the rushing of the wind
You're in everything I see
Like a visionaries dream
Preaching to the silence
It's waiting for me
Like a moon under the water
There's a sky under the sea
This world is like an ocean
An it's drowning me
There's a moon under the water
Throw a stone into the pool
See the ripples run forever
And, time, for longer still
See the moon under the water
And the sky under the sea
This world is like an ocean
An it's drowning me
There's a moon under the water
As far as the eye could see
From the horizon to infinity
Static forces down the line
Connecting voices talking rhymes
Can't decode nor can define
The signal's perfect, indicates a sign
Midnight sun
Guiding light
Take the eye
Go skimming
Across the sky
Midnight sun
Guiding light
Take the eye
Go skimming
Across the sky
As far as the eye could see
Communications were all down
Connecting voices in the air
New formations moving sound
Then came what I could not explain
I felt a hand turned 'round and saw a face
Midnight sun
Guiding light
Take the eye
Go skimming
Across the sky
Midnight sun
Guiding light
Take the eye
Go skimming
Across the sky
Midnight sun
Guiding light
Take the eye
Go skimming
Across the sky
Midnight sun
Guiding light
Take the eye
Go skimming
You tell me lies that you believe
You say it's the real thing
I can see how you've deceived
I know what's happening
And seeing is believing 'til you find out
That you're blind
You're lying to yourself
(Lying to yourself)
You're lying to yourself
(Lying to yourself)
Wake up, shake up, turn around
I'll give it to you straight
It's been too long, it's past a joke
Something I can't take
The cost is due, now tell me
Money ain't the means
You're lying to yourself
(Lying to yourself)
You're lying to yourself
(Lying to yourself)
Lying to yourself again
You're lying to yourself again
(You're lying to yourself again)
You're lying to yourself again
You're lying to yourself again
(You're lying to yourself again)
Lying in the morning
I'll kiss you goodbye
You won't regret a part of this
And neither will I
Revealing hearts with a common need
Play their hands
You're lying to yourself
(Lying to yourself)
You're lying to yourself
Here we go

I Will Remember You
(Wetton/Downes)
Somewhere Ill see you again
These words are true
Inside I carry a fl ame
It burns for you
Sometimes I reach for you
But youre not there
The place you take me to
I know not where
In dreams, you come to me

For I know wherever I go, whatever I do,
I WILL REMEMBER YOU
Locked in my memory
Your silhouette
The only face I see
I cant forget
In dreams, you come to me
Im never free
For I know wherever I go, whatever I do,
I WILL REMEMBER YOU
And if I should light a candle
For all the others Ive known
No matter how I try
Youre there before my eye
And the thought will never subside, forever
I WILL REMEMBER YOU
These streets and these houses
All of the places Ive seen
If I run from you, no matter what I do
The fi re will always survive
The embers are still alive, and
I WILL REMEMBER YOU
And if I should light a candle
For all the others Ive known
No matter how I try
Youre there before my eye
And the thought will never subside, forever
I WILL REMEMBER YOU
These streets and these houses
All of the places Ive been
If I run from you, no matter what I do
The fi re will always survive
The embers are still alive, and

Love under fire
We stand in the flame
Now and forever
After the rain
When is forever?
You can take it from me
It may be never
C'est la vie
Love under fire
We stand in the flame, now
Now and forever
After the rain
When is forever?
You can take it from me
It may be never
Just wait and see
Oh, you can hide in the jungle
You can climb up a tree
You can scan the horizon
Tell me what do you see?
As cold as a mountain
With a heart that can freeze
There's a storm on the water
With every heart that she seas
Love under fire
Love under fire
Love under fire
Love under fire
Love under fire
Love under fire
So love under fire
And we stand in the flame
Now and forever
After the rain
When is forever?
You can take it from me
It may be never
C'est la vie
(Love under fire)
Love under fire
Love under fire
Love under fire
(Love under fire)
Love under fire
Love under fire
Love under fire
Love under fire
Love under fire
Love under fire
Love under fire
Love under fire
Love under fire
Love under fire
Love under fire
Love under fire
Love under fire
She sends her smile by satellite
Steaming up the screen at night
Got the mouth, knows how to squeeze
Every line of make-believe
In the flesh, just like a dream
Fingers touch the fantasy
To hold so close, her lips near mine
Bodies on the borderline
Oh, when the lights went down
I held my breath
But she held the freeze frame
Love like the video
Why can't she love like the video
Captured hot on thirty-five
Tempting all to idolise
Leading lady, pleading man
Picture post, l.a., cannes
Every take is just like the first
Every fake so well rehearsed
Passions are the cruelest part
Deception in the coolest heart
Oh, when the lights went down
I held my breath
But she held the freeze frame
Love like the video
(Payne/Downes)
There's a black Siberian
Look a white guy in the sun
Miles away from where the quest begun
From the ice to the sand
Nations moved across the land
Ever since time designed the man
Someday to return
To the place of my birth
I'm a long way from home
But I know where I belong
It's a long way I know
But the heart will still carry me home
Firewater in the blood
Took away the livelihood
Giving thanks every single year
Who the hell
Owns this land?
Is it God or is it man?
With the blood we draw the line again
I'm called to return
To the place of my birth
I'm a long way from home
But I know where I belong
It's a long way I know
But the heart will still carry me home
I'm a long way from home
But I know where I belong
It's a long way I know
We used to live in a better world
Where sky and water were free
We point the finger, we point the gun, yeah
Is that the way it should be?
We rape the land and we tear the skin
Burn the blood in the stone
To fuel the fire of the selfish mind
Do you want to live here alone? Come on
Lay down your arms, surrender
You know you'll never get out of here
Lay down your arms, remember
No force, you'd better lay down your arms, ooh
Such are the sins of humanity
Dark is the air that we breathe
A war to hide in society, no
Don't close your eyes to deceive
Lay down your arms, surrender
You know you'll never get out of here
Lay down your arms, remember
No force, you'd better lay down your gun
Lay down your arms, surrender
You know you'll never get out of here
Lay down your arms, remember
No force, you'd better lay down your arms, oh, ooh
Too many promises
Too may tears
Where does the future lie
If we burn away the years, years?
Listen, they can make this a better world
Where sky and water are free
So give a hand without the gun, ow
Is that' the way it will be, no
Lay down your arms, surrender
You know you'll never get out of here
Lay down your arms, remember
No force, you'd better lay down your arms
Heat of the Moment
I never meant to be so bad to you
One thing I said that I would never do
One look from you and I would fall from grace
And that would wipe this smile right from my face
Do you remember when we used to dance
And incidence arose from circumstance
One thing lead to another we were young
And we would scream together songs unsung
{chorus}
It was the heat of the moment
Telling me what your heart meant
Heat of the moment shone in your eyes
And now you find yourself in 82
The disco hotspots hold no charm for you
You can't concern yourself with bigger things
You catch the pearl and ride the dragon's wings
{chorus}
And when your looks are gone and you're alone
How many nights you sit beside the phone
What were the things you wanted for yourself
Teenage ambition you remember well
{chorus x2}
Only Time Will Tell
You're leaving now
It's in your eyes
There's no disguising it
It really comes as no surprise
To find that you planned it all along
I see it now
Becomes so clear
Your insincerity
And me all starrey-eyed
To think that I would have know by now
{chorus}
Now, sure as the sun will cross the sky
This lie is over
Lost, like the tears that used to tide me over
{Only time will tell}
One thing is sure
That time will tell
{Only time will tell}
If you were wrong
The brightest ring around the moon
Will darken when I die
{chorus}
{repeat first verse}
{repeat second verse}
{chorus}
{Only time will tell}
You're on your own
Inside your room
{Only time will tell}
You're claiming victory
You were just using me
And there is no one you can use now
{Only time will tell}
One thing is sure
That time will tell...
Sole Survivor
When I ran from the hounds of hell
Twist my foot, I nearly fell
I was lucky I was alive
One look back I could have died
{chorus}
I was the sole survivor
Sole survivor
Sole survivor
Solitary fighter
When I saw it I was amazed
One time glory right in my gaze
I saw the sorrow, I saw the joy
Right in the darkness none could destroy
{chorus}
And from the wreckage I will arise
Cast the ashes back in their eyes
See the fire, I will defend
Just keep on burning right to the end
{chorus}
One Step Closer
Loneliness, a constant friend and lover
I know well
Crowded rooms the iron bar
That surround me
Trying hard to catch your eye
Just once, you see
Knowing from this moment if you did
We could be
{chorus}
One step closer
Closer than we are
One step closer
Closer than before
So many lines, you've heard them all
A lie in every one
From men who never understand
Your personality
And though we never even met
No talking needs to be done
The hum of conversation will disolve you
Into me
{chorus x2}
{chorus}
Time Again
Fate looks certain but there's nothing guaranteed
Want for nothing, but is nothing what you need?
Always pushing but you're never satisfied
I did believe you 'til I found out that you lied
{chorus}
Time and time again
Time and time again again
For what I give you I get nothing in return
Can't forgive you watching all your bridges burn
All day long I sat and watched you do it wrong
Have to say that's how you did it all along
{chorus}
But others wouldn't see things you could only see
And someone showed you, then why was it always me
You knew the limit you were always out of bounds
How could I trust you when I caught you messing 'round
{chorus}
Wildest Dreams
They decorated all the generals
Who fought the wars behind the lines
They had forgotten all the soldiers
The brandy put them way behind the times
Insanity has found its way to TV screens
Vision seems impossible to me
They fight {they fight} for king {for king} and country
I never would have thought this in my
{chorus}
Wildest dreams
Wildest dreams
Wildest dreams
Wildest dreams
The evening comes, we sit and watch the VJs
Clips and rushes come from who knows where
From Washington across to California
With fighting breaking out in Leicester Square
We see the soldiers moving on to victory
And children trampled under marching feet
They fight {they fight} for king {for king} and country
How many millions will they put to sleep?
{chorus}
Fly away...
No, not in this world
No, not in the next
No, not in my wildest dreams
They recommended euthanasia
For non-conformists anywhere
Some men's dreams for others turn to nightmares
This never would have happened in my
{chorus}
Fly away...
No, not in this world
No, not in the next
No, not in my wildest dreams...
Without You
Gazing at our sunriseReflected in your clear eyes
Misty morning forest smoke fires
Make our way through the broken day
I couldn't stand to stay
Without you
We must keep moving
While the light is clearing
Leaving your dark world behind you
You have to run
Life is just begun
I'll never be alone
Without you
One chilling thought
Come screaming through the dark
I saw a yellow moon at midnight
And now you woke
Glowing in the smoke
I'm suddenly alone
Without you
Wanting things the way they used to be
You don't know what that can do to me
One more day, maybe never
Might as well be forever
Outside the light,fading as I write
And another night reminds me
As I sleep, memory that I keep
It's just another night
Without you
It seems so long
I've been holding on
Since I felt my arms around you
Time will go, both of us will know
Never be a day
Without you
Cutting It Fine
The door swings open but you won't go it
You hate the movie that you haven't seen
You couldn't see what I have in mind
I see you laughing but you're
Cutting it, cutting it fine
You never should have done those things to me
There's one thread left 'tween you and history
And while our temperature is rising high
I'm warning you that you are
Cutting it, cutting it fine
Cutting it, cutting it fine...
You gambled all on one important game
Now take the debt and don't complain
Your game was up, I saw it all the time
I saw that vice, girl, you're
Cutting it, cutting it fine
Your sole advisor watch out for yourself
You never listen to anyone else
You were the one who ignored the signs
Dancing on a fine line
Cutting it, cutting it fine
Cutting it, cutting it fine...
Here Comes the Feeling
All through the winter I thought I'd never see you again
Oh God where were you when I needed you
I know that you, no, you would never have betrayed me
I thought I'd die, why? All the reasons still evade me
But you're back
{chorus}
Now I can see you
Now I can feel you
Now that I want you
Now I can touch you
Next to me
Here it comes
Here comes the feeling
Here comes that same old feeling
Here comes the feeling
Here comes that same old feeling
This is for real, I never felt so good before
I see the world through different eyes
Now that you're back, nothing in the least can overcome me
Misery gone, plus all the doubt that overran me
But you're back
{chorus}
{repeat first verse}
(regis diem)
Heroes of the future
The keepers of the past
And objects of our beauty
Remaining till the last
Walking on the water
The oceans at our feet
The passage of our nature
The taste of bitter-sweet
So shall we be kings?
Born just to win
Proud voices sing
And we wish that this life would go on and on
Looking in the distance
The fever on the street
Cast away the covers
Let my people see
Rulers of the network
Leaders from the dark
Embrace a generation
The first will be the last
So shall we be kings?
Born just to win
Proud voices sing
And we wish that this life would go on and on
Shall we be kings?
Born just to win
Proud voices sing
We will never give up till the day is done
Shall we be kings?
Born just to win
Proud voices sing
And we hope that the word will live on and on
Time waiting
Time taking
Life
Heroine
(Wetton/Downes)
I hold the razor blade up to my face
I feel the pulse beneath my skin
The crimson line describes the outer trace
Of my broken heart within
I thought I was invincible
Until the sky fell down on me
You are my HEROINE, do with me what you will
This is no time to die, no time to kill
My heroine, my lover to the end
You give me life again, you are my heroine
I turn my mind back not so long ago
When I was cast upon the ground
Then utter chaos rained into my life
What I had lost, could not be found
I thought Id lived forever
My time on earth had ceased to be
You are my HEROINE, do with me what you will
This is no time to die, no time to kill
The gentle waves of rolling sea
Washing my demons from me
You are my HEROINE, all that matters to me.
I may have loved you for a thousand years
But then youve known that all along
I always saw you as an eagle high in the sky
So tell me why
Only you, hold the key to set me free
.
I thought I saw eternity
With my own eyes too blind to see
You are my HEROINE, do with me what you will
This is no time to die, no time to kill
My HEROINE, my lover to the end
You give me life again, with peace you send
The gentle waves of rolling sea
To wash all the demons from me
You are my HEROINE,
All through the winter I thought I'd never see You again
Oh God, where were You when I needed You?
I know that You, no, You would never have betrayed me
I thought I'd die, why? All the reasons still evade me
But You're back
Now I can see You
Now I can feel You
Now that I want You
Now I can touch You
Next to me
Here it comes
Here comes the feeling
Here comes that same old feeling
Here comes the feeling
Here comes that same old feeling
This is for real, I never felt so good before
I see the world through different eyes
Now that You're back, nothing in the least can overcome me
Misery gone, plus all the doubt that overran me
But You're back
Now I can see You
Now I can feel You
Now that I want You
Now I can touch You
Next to me
Here it comes
Here comes the feeling
Here comes that same old feeling
Here comes the feeling
Here comes that same old feeling
All through the winter I thought I'd never see You again
Oh God, where were You when I needed You?
I know that You, no, You would never have betrayed me
I thought I'd die, why? All the reasons still evade me
'Cause You're back
Now I can see You
Now I can feel You
Now that I want You
Now I can touch You
Next to me
Here it comes
Here comes the feeling
Here comes that same old feeling
Here comes the feeling
Here comes that same old feeling
Here comes the feeling
Here comes that same old feeling
Here comes the feeling
Here comes that same old feeling
Here comes the feeling
Here comes that same old feeling
Here comes the feeling
I am caught in the heat
Hold your head as you sleep
How can I close my eyes watching you
Such a fever inside from emotions within
Burning the night with the truth
Sweetest poison - positive attraction
Raging in my mind
Oh if you walk away
You'll take the life from me
Oh if you walk away
You'll take the air I breathe
Life would be lonely
More than you'll ever know
'cos you've put all heaven on earth
I hear the sound of your voice
On the breach of the wind
I feel the touch of an angel
Next to my skin
It cuts so deep inside
It draws out the life
Harder with every time
Sweetest poison - positive attraction
Raging in my mind
I never meant to be so bad to you
One thing I said that I would never do
A look from you and I would fall from grace
And that would wipe the smile right from my face
Do you remember when we used to dance?
And incidents arose from circumstance
One thing lead to another we were young
And we would scream together songs unsung
It was the heat of the moment
Telling me what my heart meant
The heat of the moment showed in your eyes
And now you find yourself in '82
The disco hot spots hold no charm for you
You can concern yourself with bigger things
You catch a pearl and ride the dragon's wings
'Cause it's the heat of the moment
Heat of the moment
The heat of the moment showed in your eyes
And when your looks are gone and you're alone
How many nights you sit beside the phone
What were the things you wanted for yourself?
Teenage ambitions you remember well
It was the heat of the moment
Telling me what your heart meant
The heat of the moment showed in your eyes
Heat of the moment
Heat of the moment
Heat of the moment showed in your eyes
Heat of the moment
Heat of the moment
Heat of the moment
I never meant to be so bad to you
One thing I said that I would never do
A look from you and I would fall from grace
And it would wipe the smile right from my face
Do you remember when we used to dance
And incidents arose from circumstance
One thing led to another, we were young
And we would scream together songs unsung
* It was the heat of the moment
Telling me what my heart menat
The heat of the moment showed in your eyes
And now you find yourself in '82
The disco hot spots hold no charm for you
You can concern yourself with bigger things
You catch a pearl and ride the dragon's wings
'Cause it's the heat of the moment
The heat of the moment
The heat of the moment showed in your eyes
And when your looks have gone and you're alone
How many nights you sit beside the phone
What were the things you wanted for yourself
Teenage ambitions you remember well
A secret smile
Comes to my eyes like a bolt from the blue
It's not your style
But it leads me to dream about what we could do
Could it be the same
(Could it be the same)
Ever be the same
(When I call your name)
Could it be the same again
Ever the same again?
It's hard on me
And I know, nothing comes easy
But it's hard on you
Believe me, baby it's hard on me
A trick of light
Your face in the shadows alone in the night
You're in my sights
All I've been thinking I know that it's right
See you standing there
(See you standing there)
Magic in the air
(Magic in the air)
Now the smoke has cleared
Time has disappeared
It's hard on me
But you know, nothing comes easy
But it's hard on you
I need you, always believe me
Could it be the same?
(Could it be the same)
Ever be the same
(When I call your name)
Could it be the same
Ever the same again?
It's hard on me
But I know, nothing comes easy
But it's hard on you
I need you, always believe me
It's hard on me
But you know, nothing comes easy
But it's hard on you, I've hurt you before
It was a day, just like any other day
I walked alone, through the old town
But what happened then, would have happened anyway
The water stopped turning, and time stood still
What could it be, that set you apart from the people I meet
Thousands of faces, there's only one I can see
A face in the crowd, that's calling so loud that it hurts me
Here in this place, you are the face on the bridge
Unlock my head, to the king of Bohemia
I give my thanks, for she set me free
Without this girl, I would simply not be here
Her face on the bridge, made a man of me
What could it be, that set you apart from the people I meet
Thousands of faces, there's only one I can see
A face in the crowd, that's calling so loud that it hurts me
Here in this place you are the face on the bridge
You offered your hand, you brought me back from the edge
Here in this place, you are the face on the bridge
What could it be, that set you apart from the people I meet
Thousands of faces, there's only one I can see
A face in the crowd, that's calling so loud that it hurts me
Here in this place, you are the face on the bridge
You offered your hand, you brought me back from the edge
Here in this place, you are the face on the bridge
You are the face on the bridge
You are the face on the bridge
So early in the morning
It's the same now every day
Sign your name and number
Cutting from the ball and chain
Never letting go when
The weight was so deceiving
Treading on a turning wheel
Machinery is screaming
Shoulder to the stone again
Praying for the evening
Hiding as the fist hits steel
Chorus:
Enough's enough
It's eye to eye
Enough's enough
We cry
Enough's enough
Of smoke and steel
Enough's enough
Of turning this wheel
Looking at his picture
Steel did turn the skin to bone
Father I remember
The hands that had to break the stone
I walk the line, look straight ahead
A second chance, one slip and it's gone
Though the bird has flown, the sands of time stand still
Scars that never heal, wounds you always feel
Keep on walking that dusty road, blinded by the flame
Keep on walking that dusty road, never giving in
A single light, you hold your breath
Your heart beats fast, a skin that burns
Maybe the tide has turned, one goal you know is near
And wish of a thousand nights, voices you always hear
So keep on walking that dusty road, blinded by the flame
He was just a lonely kid
No matter what he did
Was never recognised
Then you came along
Was the second son
So special in their eyes
Oh how he ran
To the city where his dreams would turn to man
Oh how he ran
So he lived his life alone
Where he lay was home
Then they made him move along
From town to town
With his head held down
Then he turned twords the gun
Again how he ran
From the badge he had no chance to understand
Oh how he ran
Chorus:
Don't cut the wire, cos he really needs you now
Don't cut the wire, in the final hour
When it comes to the rest, you were always the best
Brother don't you cut the wire
Many years have passed
But behind the mask
He always thought of you
Now with a gun in hand
It's his final stand
Your brother needs you too
He knows how he ran
From the child he was
Then later from the man
Oh how he ran
Hard times you had before you, I knew when I first saw you
You girl, you've always been mistreated, cheated
So leave it all behind you, it took so long to find you
I know that we can last forever ever and more, oh, oh, oh
Don't cry, now that I've found you
Don't cry, take a look around you
Don't cry, it took so long to find you
Do what you want but little darlin' please don't cry
I knew I'd never doubt it, I was so sure about it
Don't think of all that's been before
I'll hear you when you're callin', I'll catch you when you're fallin'
Don't worry I will always be there like never before, oh, oh, oh
Don't cry, now that I've found you
Don't cry, take a look around you
Don't cry, it took so long to find you
Do what you want but little darlin' please don't cry
Don't cry, now that I've found you
Don't cry, take a look around you
Don't cry, it took so long to find you
Do what you want but little darlin' please don't cry
Don't cry, now that I've found you
Don't cry, take a look around you
Don't cry, it took so long to find you
Do what you want but little darlin' please don't cry
Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry
Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry
Don't cry, it took so long to find you
Walking down the avenue
Every step I take I see you
There's nothing more that I can do
To hold back from crying
It's not that I don't have the time
To hear your voice would only cost a dime
I'm gonna save myself a dime
And you know why
'Cos in the night when you're alone
There is no one you can turn to
As you're reaching for the phone
Oh, don't come to me
I won't be there, you see
You turned this heart to stone
Now you'll walk alone
So don't come to me, yeah
How do I get left this way?
I must have been born yesterday
Every single word you'd say
Were lies, lies, lies
Still walking down that avenue
Every step I take, I see you
There's nothing more that I can do
To hold back from crying
So if you're looking for a friend
And you need someone that you can turn to
If you've got some time to spend
Don't come to me
I won't be there, you see
You turned this heart to stone
Now you'll walk alone
So don't come to me, yeah
'Cos in the night when you're alone
There is no one you can turn to
As you're reaching for the phone
Don't come to me
I won't be there, you see
You turned this heart to stone
Now you'll walk alone
So don't come to me, don't come to me
[Incomprehensible]
You know I'll never understand your reasons
I gave you all the love that I could give
Now I'm sitting on a plane to take me far away
I've got to find a new place to live
It used to feel so good when you stood beside me
How can you forget the words you said?
Things like, 'Gonna stay with you forever'
Will always echo in my head
Don't call me, don't call me no more
Don't call me, don't call me no more
If this plane ride lasts forever
I couldn't quite get over you, no
We spent too much time together
I can't believe we're through
You know I'll never understand your reasons
I gave you all the love that I could give
Now I'm sitting on a plane to take me far away
I've got to find a new place to live
Don't call me, don't call me no more
Don't call me, don't call me no more
If this plane ride lasts forever
I couldn't quite get over you, no
We spent too much time together
I just can't believe we're through
Don't call me, don't call me no more
Don't call me, don't call me no more
Desire
From the very first rush
To the very last sigh
In a moment's touch
To the whole of time
Be the secrets of pain
Kiss the tears that you cry, oh girl
Just to hold without
Get to touch within
From the sound of your breath
To the taste of your skin
I'd give all my days
Just for one of your nights
I've just got to get next to you
Let it out, let it go
(Let it out)
Desire, make it physical
Looks to feed the thrill
Desire, with its hungry eyes
Closing for the kill
Desire, all that's left in me
Tears the night in two
Desire, like a primitive
Claw my way to you
Are you thinking of me
Like I'm thinking of you?
How the innocence dies
In a passionate stare
A shaft of light, a silent dare
The call of the wild
From the very first crime
Of original sin
To the carnal lie
Where the truth begins
Just to feel your nails
Lift me up like wings
I've just got to get next to you
(Next to you)
Let it out, let it go
(Let it out)
Desire, make it physical
Looks to feed the thrill
Desire, with its hungry eyes
Closing for the kill
Desire, all that's left in me
Tears the night in two
Desire, like a primitive
Claw my way to you
Are you thinking of me
Like I'm thinking of you?
Are you thinking of me
Like I'm thinking of you?
Are you thinking of me
Like I'm thinking of you?
Are you thinking of me
Like I'm thinking of
Desire, make it physical
Looks to feed the thrill
Desire, with its hungry eyes
Closing for the kill
Desire, it tears the night in two
(Desire)
Desire, make it physical
Looks to feed the thrill
Desire, with its hungry eyes
The sun was shinin'
The sky was cryin'
It just tore apart
And down came the rain
An' I was soakin'
Yea I was freezing
But I was feeling
No kind of pain
Come a fireball
I held it in my hand
You see before you
A man who's known greatness
I had a vision
A revelation
I took a look inside of me
And I am a sensation
Days like these
I feel like I can change the world
Days like these
I feel like I can change the world
It's either easy
Or it's impossible
But if you ain't got it
You ain't never gonna get it
Once you find it
You gotta grab it
You gotta reach down your own throat
And yank it to the surface
May be brutal
May be glory
But whatever else it is
It's my story
And I believe it
Yea, I can see it
I sing it out, shout it out
Give me death or glory
Days like these
I feel like I can change the world
Days like these
I feel like I can change the world
Days like these, days like these
You know I think I'll move a mountain or two
Days like these, days like these
Anything you want you know I'll get it for you, ooo ooo ooh
Ohh ohh ohh
Days like these
I feel like I can change the world
The sun was shinin'
I was cryin'
I saw a thousand people
Singin' in the rain
And I was thinkin'
About the Indians
And how they sing true wisdom
Only comes through pain
Come a rumblin'
Humblin' feelin'
Like things will never
Ever be the same
What doesn't kill your
Only makes you stronger
And today I'm strong enough
And anyway, I love the rain
Days like these
I feel like I can change the world
Days like these
I feel like I can change the world
(Ooh ooh what a day like these)
Days like these
I feel like I can change the world
Days like these
I feel like I can change the world
(Ohh change the world)
Days like these
I feel like I can change the world
Days like these
I feel like I can change the world
(I feel like I can change the world)
Days like these
The door swings open but you won't go it
You hate the movie that you haven't seen
You couldn't see what I have in mind
I see you laughing but you're
Cutting it, cutting it fine
You never should have done those things to me
There's one thread left 'tween you and history
And while our temperature is rising high
I'm warning you that you are
Cutting it, cutting it fine
Cutting it, cutting it fine...
You gambled all on one important game
Now take the debt and don't complain
Your game was up, I saw it all the time
I saw that vice, girl, you're
Cutting it, cutting it fine
Your sole advisor watch out for yourself
You never listen to anyone else
You were the one who ignored the signs
Dancing on a fine line
Cutting it, cutting it fine
Dreams that have melted, now frozen like statues
Under the surface here, lies the unknown
Love has a way of disguising it's purpose
Seeing your pain, my hand goes out to you
You should have known better than to trust him
How the pain shines through your eyes
Nothing hits harder than a crime of the heart
It breaks you up and it tears you apart
You just want to die, you've been so abused
Now you know how it feels to be used
Nothing hurts harder than a crime of the heart
I'm such a fool, I should have known from the start
I saw it coming and I feel I'm to blame
But love don't give in
I watch your face as you stare into distance
Eyes filled with tears that look so far away
(So far away)
Deep in your heart can you feel a resistance?
Love, it just happens, there's no one to blame
You should have known better than to sacrifice
The stained glass soul you hide
Nothing hits harder than a crime of the heart
It's the kind of feeling that pulls you apart
There's nowhere to run, there's nothing to say
You never knew that it could feel this way
Nothing hurts harder than a crime of the heart
I could have told you he was wrong from the start
I'm not guilty but I feel I'm to blame
My love won't give in
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Crime of the heart
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Crime of the heart
Crime of the heart
Crime of the heart
The night is cold, the sun is down
I see faces through the wire
No chance for them
No shoulder left to cry on
It's 4 am out on the street
Through the smoke I see the fire
It's a funeral pyre
For them to die on
Countdown to zero
Just begun
Countdown to zero
It's time to start the run
The city lights are fading now
As I climb into the plane
To shield me from
The stinging acid rain
And this is it, it's over now
As we taxi down Runway One
Tell me please
You'll wake me when it's over
Countdown to zero
Just begun
Countdown to zero
It's time to start the run
Do you realize what's happening in Western Europe?
Norway, Finland, Scotland, England
We'll be the first to go
Don't do it
Countdown to zero
Just begun
Countdown to zero
It's time to start the run
Don't do it
Don't do it
Don't start the countdown to zero
We want to live
We want to live
We will live
You've got your finger on the trigger
Take it off
Let it go
Let it pass
Let it go
You said time would heal all the scars inside,
But hurt seems to grow not die
No matter how I try
I regret the things that I've said
Can't forget the words you misread that night
I know I was unkind
Sitting here all alone
How I wish I could change the past
Feelings hidden, unshown
Behind the mask
Can't stop the rain from falling
Can't stop the world from turning
Can't take the cold, the hurting
Can't tell these walls I'm missing you
Fallen down, can I pick myself up from the ground?
Look at the face of this clown
I've tried to hide the tears
Sitting here all alone
How I wish I could change the past
Is there ever a chance?
Still the river flows
Can't stop the rain from falling
Can't stop the world from turning
Can't take the cold, the hurting
Echoes of a million years, lie twisted in my face
In a world without no name, and a stranger human race
In the distance how it shines, sparkles in the light
Like a flower pulls you in, you lose your mind.
And it really doesn't matter if the sky should fall
Your living under ground, there's no sky at all
Nothing much changes
We're the boys of the diamond city
We're tough like diamond
We're the boys of the diamond city
So rough, like diamonds
I remember nightmare days, like packs of dogs we'd roam
Through the broken city streets, through the broken city's bone
It's so hard to stand your ground, it's so hard to stay alive
'cos when you fight for what you keep, you know you fight for your life
And it really doesn't matter if the sky should fall
Your living under ground, there's no sky at all
Nothing much changes
We're the boys of the diamond city
We're tough like diamond
We're the boys of the diamond city
So rough, like diamonds
I remember a time
A giant skyline
And a blue, blue sky
It's almost dreamlike
We're the boys of the diamond city
We're the boys of the diamond city
We're tough like diamond
We're the boys of the diamond city
(Payne/Downes)
So scared of the dark
Frightened now to close heavy eyes
Escape this dream
Haunts my every cell
Whenever I sleep
I wake into a world
After the war
Cities turned to sand
We live underground
Ever since the end of the fall
Nations erased
Programmed 20 years ago
I'm alive
Blue Moon Monday
Blue Moon Monday
I can't believe the scene
Some day, some day
So safe within my arms
One day, one way
We will return again
Blue Moon Monday
Again I awake
Into a perfect world
The sun always shines
Here I feel so safe
I'm living two lives
The darkness and the light
Heaven and Hell
I don't wanna die
Don't let me sleep
Why can't just you hear what I say?
Which is the dream
Now I don't understand
Am I alive?
Blue Moon Monday
Blue Moon Monday
I can't believe the scene
Some day, some day
So safe within my arms
One day, one way
We will return again
I saw the writing on the wall
The story of our birth then fall
Within their tombs of holy stone
The scrolls of life, one man alone
If we try, we can live and learn
The sands will pull you under
Don't let them pull you under
Awake
I traveled to a foreign land
Through stormy seas and burning sand
Led by the stars, the ancient stream
The call of treasures yet unseen
If we climb to the rocks of kings
Together we'll discover
The source of all our wonder
Awake
Someday we're gonna go back to the stars
And find the answer, who we really are
A traveler through the lonely mists of time
Creation from the sky
The dawning of a brand new day
The waking of the whispers say
That sleeping heavens will return
In deepest night the secret learned
From these walls this city lies
The past will be our future
The journey will be over
Awake
Someday we're gonna go back to the stars
And find the answer, who we really are
A traveler through the lonely mists of time
Creation from the sky
Someday we're gonna to back to the stars
And find the answer, who we really are
If we try, we can live and learn
Together we'll discover
The source of all our wonder
Awake
We saw the writing
We read the story
We saw the writing
We read the story
We saw the writing
We read the story
We saw the writing
We read the story
We saw the writing
We read the story
We saw the writing
We read the story
We saw the writing
We read the story
We saw the writing
You can take it
If you want it
You can break it
If you need it
I'll never fight another day
But you can take the flesh not the soul away
They're calling from the lions den
They're fighting for the ghosts of holy men
Into the arena we climb
We look to the sky
Into the arena we climb
You and i
Is it over
When the light goes?
Bella nova
Tell me who knows
Scars will beat the minds of men
Can you feel the thorns upon the skin?
I'll never fight another day till I die
{chorus}
Yes I hear you
Yes I see you
Yes I feel you
And I need you
Is it over, I'll never fight another day
When the light goes?
But you can take the flesh, not the soul away
Bella nova, they're calling from the lions den
Tell me who knows?
They're fighting for the souls of holy men
Fra i fiori tropicali, fra grida di dolcezza
la lenta lieve brezza scivolava.
E piano poi portava fischiando fra la rete
l'odore delle sete e della spezia.
Leone di Venezia, leone di S. Marco,
l'arma cristiana al varco dell'oriente.
Ai porti di ponente il mare ti ha portato
i carichi di avorio e di broccato.
Le vesti dei mercanti trasudano di ori,
tesori immani portano le stive.
Si affacciano alle rive
le colorate vele,
fragranti di garofano e di pepe.
Trasudano le schiene,
schiantate dal lavoro,
son per terra mirra, oro e incenso.
Sembra che sia nel vento
su fra la palma somma
il grido del sudore e della gomma.
E l'Asia par che dorma,
ma sta sospesa in aria
l'immensa millenaria sua cultura.
I bianchi e la natura
non possono schiacciare
i Buddha, i Chela, gli uomini ed il mare.
Leone di S. Marco, leone del Profeta,
ad est di Creta corre il tuo vangelo.
Si staglia contro il cielo
il tuo simbolo strano
la spada, e non il libro hai nella mano.
Terra di meraviglie,
terra di grazie e mali,
di mitici animali da "bestiari".
S'arriva dai santuari
fin sopra all'alta plancia
il fumo della Ganja e dell'incenso.
E quel profumo intenso
rotta di gabbiani:
segno di vani simboli divini.
E gli uccelli marini
additano col volo
la strada del Katai per Marco Polo.
lontano, lontano, al di là del mare
oltre questo cielo, oltre il polo
lontano, lontano, al di là del mare
ancora più in alto ti raggiungerà
questo mio sentimento che non conosce frontiere
vorrei farti sentire il mio calore
a te così lontano
vorrei farti sentire questa mia gioia
questa felicità che mi invade
lontano, lontano al di là del mare
con te, insieme, come in un sogno
ascolta questo mio incontenibile amore

Asia, full of riches and poverty,
I'm calling, won't you come on to me,
I saw you crying, while I was dying, for Asia.
Millions, lost in a human sea, like children needing
identity,
Will tomorrow, bring joy or sorrow, for Asia.
Oh oh oh who will go for me, who will set their beauty
free.
Oh oh oh if they refuse me, who will cry for Asia with
Asia, I'm the sunrise from on high, can you see me, I
shine in your Eastern sky.
I'm longing for you, to heal and hold you.
