Meet me downtown on the corner
I'll be waiting in a big yellow cab
Don't bring a suitcase
You won't need a thing
There'll be no worries
Where Angels sing
I got my ticket in my hand
Oh the price is paid in full
No man can stop me
Their words won't sting you
No dreams will haunt you
Where Angels sing
I get so weary
On this troubled road
Unlock these chains
And gently rock me home
Beyond the clouds and the rain
Where Angels sing
Where Angels sing
Where lies can't hurt me
The flesh desert me
No in or out
No loss or doubt
No living with or doing without
Where money ain't the power king
And kindness is the most precious thing
Where Angels sing
Oh, where Angels sing
Where time means nothing
No hustle
No one rushing
No dark of night
No hate or spite
No wrong or right
No day or night
No towns or no cities
There's no pain, no pity
Where hunger is no longer
And a good man just gets stronger
Where Angels sing
Where Angels sing
Where Angels sing
Where Angels sing

You sure of what your name is
You sure of where ya live
You know how much you make
Ah, you know how much you give
You know where your house is
You know which road to take
Ah, but you're sure `bout lots of things
Look out there's one mistake
There just ain't no doubt
There's just one thing you're never too sure about
Never can be too sure about the girl
Oh, you can never be too sure about the girl
You leave her there, when you get back
She calls you Bill, when your name is Jack
Never can be too sure about the girl
You know about the truth
You can see it in her eyes
One thing you know about love
It'll cut you down to size
You hear what they tell you
Do you do what you're told
And if they say yes --
Does it mean it's really so?
You're ready for the thrill tonight
You think you'll take it slow
But she's forgotten more, boy
Then you will ever know
She calls you up in the middle of the night
She says she's lonesome and alone
You're all revved up, finally some place to go
You knock on that door --
Nobody's home
Never can be too sure about the girl
Oh...you never can be too sure about the girl
You leave her there, when you get back
She calls you Bill, when your name is Jack
Never can be too sure about the girl
Oh...you never can be too sure about the girl
She'll drive you crazy...oh...girl

[Boy:]
There's a hole in the sky tonight
There the moon drift to far from sight
I would search thru this empty darkness
To see your face in the morning light
We've been lost in a sea of confusion
Got caught up in a selfish illusion
But make no mistake: I will bend till I break
Don't let fate make the choice for us
What about love that lasts forever?
What about time to see it through?
If you don't give you just don't get it
What about me?
What about you?
What about love?
[Girl:]
Once in a lifetime you'll find someone heaven send for you
For a lifetime you'll feel there's a reason to believe
In a love that's meant to be
[Boy:]
It feels like we've fallen from grace
Given up on the higher thing
'Cause I know deep inside if we search we will find
Something to give us wings
What about love that lasts forever?
What about time to see it through?
If you don't give you just don't get it?
What about me?
What about you?
What about love?
[Boy:]
I can't go on another day
Comin' home and seeing you cryin'
[Girl:]
Can't stand another night
Of telling you I'm tired when I'm dying
[Both:]
Forever means nothing
To live without you
Is reaching for something that never comes through
Together is heaven
Apart we're in hell
The time for forgiveness is now
Once in a lifetime you'll find
Someone to share your dreams
For a lifetime
Our love will always set us free
Forever we'll believe...
[Boy:]
I can't forget the feelin of your sweat upon my skin
And the tremble of your body on the day you let me in
It happens once, only once in a lifetime
[Girl:]
On a summernight's surrender with nothing to loose
You were scared and so was I when I gave myself to you
It happens once, only once in a lifetime
[Both:]
What about love that lasts forever?
What about time to see it through?
If you don't give you just don't get it
What about me?
What about you?
What about love that won't say never?
When you don't know what you can do
If you don't live you just regret it
What about me?
What about you?

(feat. Patti Russo)
(Steinman)
[Boy:]
I never knew so many bad times
Could follow me so mercilessly
It's almost surreal all the pain that I feel
The future ain't what it used to be
It doesn't matter what they're thinking
It doesn't matter what they're thinking of me
It's always so cold and I'm to young to be old
The future ain't what it used to be
Were there ever any stars in the sky?
And did the sun ever shine so bright?
Do you have any dreams I could borrow
Just to get me through the lonely nights?
Is there anything left to hold on to
When the rivers wash it all away?
Is there anyone left to hold on to?
Is there anything left I can say?
Say a prayer for the falling angels
Stem the tide of the rising waters
Toll a bell for the broken hearted
Burn a torch for your sons and daughters
The endless night has got a hold of me
Dark days are pulling me forward
And all these tears are washing over me
And I'm crying - I'm lost forever
In a future that ain't what it used to be
A future that ain't what it used to be
A future that ain't what it used to be no more...
(no more, no more, no more)
[Girl:]
It's like a storm that's never ending
It's like a shadow on the land and the sea
There's nothing so sad as a tomorrow gone bad
The future ain't what it used to be, now
[Boy:]
Some days I feel so numb and empty
And those would be the good days for me
[Both:]
Nothing gets to me now unless I'm thinking of how
The future ain't what it used to be
[Boy:]
Were there ever any stars in the sky?
And did the sun ever shine so bright?
Do you have any dreams I could borrow
Just to get me through the lonely nights?
Is there anything left to hold on to
When the rivers wash it all away?
Is there anyone left to hold on to?
Is there anything left I can say?
Say a prayer for the falling angels
Stem the tide of the rising waters
Toll a bell for the broken hearted
Burn a torch for your sons and daughters
The endless night has got a hold of me
Dark days are pulling me forward
And all these tears are washing over me
And I'm crying - I'm lost forever
In a future that ain't what it used to be
A future that ain't what it used to be
A future that ain't what it used to be no more
[Girl:] No more, no more, no more, no more
[Boy:] No more
[Girl:] No more, no more, no more, no more...
[Boy:] No more, no more, no more, no more...
The future just ain't what it used to be
The future just ain't what it used to be
The future just ain't what it used to be
Oh, the future just ain't what it used to be
[Girl:] The future that ain't what it used to be no more...
Oh, the future just ain't what it used to be
[Girl:] The future that ain't what it used to be no more...
Hmmm, the future just ain't what it used to be
[Girl:] Aaah, the future, the future, the future, the future...
Oh, the future, the future, the future just ain't what it used to be
(the future just ain't what it used to be)
Oh, future just ain't what it used to be
Aaaaah, the future just ain't what it used to be
[Girl:] The future...
[Both:]
I wish it wouldn't come
I wish it wouldn't come

Madder than a mad man and bored to the core
Minute hand crawling, can't take it anymore
Future's up the highway, I gotta get away
Gonna take a little trip and find a Tijuana stray
I got the time to take it
I got the balls to break it
Gotta car that'll make it
South of the border
Don't drink the water
Gonna have a good time tonight
Crazy from the heat and runnin' for the red light
Oh senorita
Have two Tequila
Love seeker
Lord, the will is getting weaker
Gonna have a good time tonight
Burnin' with the fever and runnin' for the red light
She ain't a teacher
She ain't a preacher
Just so close to holy that you're runnin' just to reach her
Time bomb is tickin', my head's about to burst
Need some personal attention or I swear I'm gonna rust
Gonna find a little place, no-one will tell you what to do
Tell her I'm a rebel, she says 'Yeah, without a clue'
Just need some understanding
A girl who ain't demanding
Who ain't afraid to fake it
South of the border
Don't drink the water
Gonna have a good time tonight
Crazy from the heat and runnin' for the red light
Oh senorita
Have two Tequila
Love seeker
Lord, the will is getting weaker
Gonna have a good time tonight
Burnin' with the fever and runnin' for the red light
She ain't a teacher
She ain't a preacher
Just so close to holy that you gotta run to reach her
Need some understanding
A girl who ain't demanding
A little bad behaviour
She's gonna be my saviour
My knees are shakin'
My back is breakin'
Oh mama mia
A' senorita
Gonna have a good time tonight
Crazy from the heat and runnin' for the red light
Oh senorita
Have three Tequila
Love seeker
Lord, the will is getting weaker
Gonna have a good time tonight
Burnin' with the fever and runnin' for the red light
She ain't a teacher
She ain't a preacher
Just so close to holy that you're runnin' just to reach her
Gonna have a good time tonight
Crazy from the heat and runnin' for the red light
Oh senorita
Have some Tequila
Need sneakers
Lord, the will is getting weaker
Gonna have a good time tonight
Burnin' with the fever and runnin' for the red light
Just heard the bell, that got me outta hell

It's only two o'clock
And the temperature's beginning to soar
And all around the city
You see the walking wounded and the living dead
It's never been this hot and I've never been so bored
And breathing is just no fun anymore
Then I saw you like a summer dream
And you're the answer to every prayer that I ever said
I saw you like a summer dream
And you're the answer to every prayer that I ever said
You can feel the pulse of the pavement
Racing like a runaway horse
The subways are sizzling
And the skin of the streets is gleaming with sweat
I've seen you sitting on the steps outside
And you were looking so restless and reckless and lost
I think it's time for you to come inside
I'll be waiting here with something that you'll never forget
I think it's time for you to come inside
I'll be waiting here with something that you'll never forget
Come on, come on and there'll be no turning back
You were only killing time and it'll kill you right back
Come on, come on, it's time to burn up the fuse
You got nothing to do and even less to lose
You got nothing to do and even less to lose
So wander down to the ancient hallway,
Taking the stairs only one at a time
Follow the sound of my heartbeat now
I'm in the room at the top,
You're at the end of the line
So open the door and lay down on the bed,
The sun is just a ball of desire
And I wanna take you out of the frying pan
And into the fire
Out of the frying pan and into the fire
Out of the frying pan and into the fire
And I wanna take you out of the frying pan
And into the fire
Out of the frying pan and into the fire
Out of the frying pan and into the fire
And into the fire, fire, fire,
And into the fire, fire, fire
And into the fire, fire, fire,
And into the fire
It's only two o'clock
And the temperature's beginning to soar
And all around the city
You see the walking wounded and the living dead
It's never been this hot and I've never been so bored
And breathing is just no fun anymore
Then I saw you like a summer dream
And you're the answer to every prayer that I ever said
I saw you like a summer dream
And you're the answer to every prayer that I ever said
And into the, and into the, and into the
And into the fire, fire, fire,
And into the fire, fire, fire
And into the fire, fire, fire,
And into the fire
And into the fire, fire, fire,
And into the fire, fire, fire
And into the fire!

Touch me
I'm so afraid to draw you close
Hold me
Before my hands fall away
I'll suffocate
If I cant breathe you in
And hold you there
Forever
I left a message at the hotel
They said you checked out
They said you ain't coming back
I tried to call you
But you turned off your cell
And it said at the tone
Just leave me alone
And I fall apart at the seams
It seems that I always, always fall apart
But as strong as I am
Why can't I break your heart?
I remember how it used to be
Making love to you all night long
I used to take you in my arms
And hold you there until all my strength was gone
I used to be a man of steel
I used to be a man of steel
I built this prison that I thought was a home
And we both lived here
Guess you were living alone
I'd tear it down if you would only have asked
And I would build you a bridge
So you could come back
And I fall apart at the seams
It seems that I always, always fall apart
But as strong as I am
Why can't I break your heart?
I remember how it used to be
Making love to you all night long
I used to take you in my arms
And hold you there until all your fears were gone
I used to be a man of steel
I used to be a man of steel
I used to be a man of steel
I used to take you in my arms
Girl: Hey, now tell me why can't you just break my heart?
I used to take you in my arms
And I used to take you in my arms
Girl: I loved you from the start
Now you can't tear my world apart
I used to be a man of steel
Now every bit of faith is gone
Girl: You used to be so strong
Now you can't even break my heart
I used to be a man of steel
I used to take you in my arms
What's it going to take for us to break down?
And finally fall
Apart at the seams
It seems that I always will fall apart
Girl: As strong as you are ...
As strong as I am ...
Girl: Why can't you break my heart?

I sit in my living room thinking of you
And the feelings I fear are coming true
And everything about you is wrong I know it
But I still taste you on my tongue
And I still breathe you in my lungs
And I wish I could stop breaking down
Wish I could love you out loud
Wish I could love you out loud
But I'll just keep it to myself
Wish I could hear how it sounds
To be with you and no one else
Don't make a sound
Don't tell a soul
It's 7:00am and I just want to call you
And tell you I'm falling in love
But, there's somebody else inside these four walls
If she smells you on my skin
I can't let her know where I've been
I wish I could be with you now
Wish I could love you out loud
Wish I could love you out loud
But I'll just keep it to myself
Wish I could hear how it sounds
To be with you and no one else
Wish I could love you out loud
Because I'm under your spell
Wish I could tell the whole world
But I'll just keep it to myself
Don't make a sound
Don't tell a soul
Don't tell them anything
And I won't let you go
Don't say a word
Don't tell a soul
And I shiver at the thought of you
I can't believe that you love me too
And we quiver when we touch
I can't believe I love you so much
And I hate it when you walk away
I know we can't go on this way
But there's magic when we touch
I can't believe I love you so much
Wish I could love you out loud
Wish I could hear how it sounds
Wish I could love you out loud
Wish I could hear how it sounds
Wish I could love you out loud
But I'll just keep it to myself
Wish I could hear how it sounds
To be with you and no one else
Wish I could love you out loud
Because I'm under your spell
Wish I could tell the whole world
But I'll just keep it to myself
Don't make a sound
Don't tell a soul
Don't tell them anything
And I won't let you go
Wish I could love you out loud
But I'll just keep it to myself
Wish I could hear how it sounds
To be with you and no one else
Wish I could love you out loud
Because I'm under your spell
Wish I could tell the whole world
But I'll just keep it to myself
Wish I could love you out loud
Wish I could hear how it sounds
Wish I could love you out loud
Wish I could love you out loud

Look at them now
What do they want?
And what do they do now?
Nothing at all!
What do they know?
What do they think?
And who do they tell?
Well, no one at all!
Lives are truely meaningless
And we are busy being blessed
With that we can take and pocket
No one needs to know
We're is the plug and they're the socket
Give us the juice and we'll go
Can't you hear the choir now?
Listen to the animals sing!
Can't you hear the slaughterhouse bells?
In the land of the pigs the butcher is king!
In the land of the pigs the butcher is king!
How do they sleep?
Their lives are so tart
Bring me the trash collectors
'Cause they're nothing but trash
What do you expect?
They've got no standards
So we lower the bar
'Cause they're waiting for us
We'll open up Pandora's Box
Pandora gave her keys and locks
They're the big dogs waiting for their mother
Come to the confessional
So I can tell you all to bugger off
There's no time like now!
Can't you hear the choir now?
Listen to the animals sing!
Can't you hear the slaughterhouse bells?
In the land of the pigs the butcher is king!
Can't you hear the choir now?
Listen to the market-place sing!
Can't you hear the slaughterhouse bells?
In the land of the pigs the butcher is king!
In the land of the pigs the butcher is king...
And we'll do it our way
It's our time to play
We know what to say
They stand in our way
Don't stand in our way
No time like today...
Can't you hear the choir now?
Listen to the anthems we sing!
Can't you hear the slaughterhouse bells?
In the land of the pigs the butcher is king!
Can't you hear the choir now?
Listen to the animals sing!
Can't you hear the slaughterhouse bells?
In the land of the pigs the butcher is king!
Can't you hear the choir now?
Listen to the chosen ones sing!
Can't you hear the slaughterhouse bells?
In the land of the pigs the butcher is king!
In the land of the pigs the butcher is king!
In the land of the pigs the butcher is king!

Hit it!
Everything I've ever dreamed of
Has begun to fade to black
Oh, I don't know where I ever lost love
Or where to go now to get it back
I'm a desperate, lonely child and I don't have enough
I've come to know the rules and laws and scriptures of love
If it ain't real - fake it!
If it ain't yours - take it!
If it don't exist - you make it!
If it ain't broke - break it!
If it ain't real - fake it!
If it ain't yours - take it!
If it's gone to sleep - you wake it!
If it ain't broke - break it!
Gimme some words I can live by
Gimme commandments to know
Gimme some fables and proverbs
You gotta gimme some signs where to go
There are designated angels who just might save your soul, no!
They give me words to live by - and that's all that I know
If it ain't real - fake it!
If it ain't yours - take it!
If it don't exist - you make it!
If it ain't broke - break it!
If it ain't real - fake it!
If it ain't yours - take it!
If it's all gone bad - forsake it!
If it ain't broke - break it...
There are designated angels who just might save your soul
They give me words to live by - and that's all that I know
If it ain't real - fake it!
If it ain't yours - take it!
If it don't exist - you make it!
If it ain't broke - break it!
If it ain't real - fake it!
If it ain't yours - take it!
If it's gone to sleep - you wake it!
If it ain't broke - break it!
If it ain't real - fake it!
If it ain't yours - take it!
If it don't exist - you make it!
If it ain't broke - break it!
If it ain't real - fake it!
If it ain't yours - take it!
If it's all gone bad - forsake it!

(Child/Marti Frederiksen)
If God could talk
Would He tell you to come back to me?
If God could talk
Would He tell you it's alright, just leave
And don't look back at all the memories
The best of times, the mess you made of me
Walk on, if you think it's gonna make you strong
Why don't you run away
And find yourself alive
Go on and turn the page
Before your lonely world collides
What's it gonna take to break the silence
That's been tearin' you apart?
If God could talk
Would He part the oceans straight to you
Make mountains move, crumble at your feet to get you through
Another day, another night alone
Step right out into the great unknown tonight
Even God knows, baby, that ain't right
Why don't you run away
And find yourself alive
Go on and turn the page
Before your lonely world collides
What's it gonna take to break the silence
That's been tearin' you apart?
If only God could talk
Did you swear to yourself
On the day it was over
That you'd never turn around
And get locked up in another cage?
Did you tear all the pictures
Of us living life together
Did you burn all the mem'ries
That have been made in a fit of rage?
Why don't you run away
And find yourself alive
Go on and turn the page
Before your lonely world collides
What's it gonna take to break the silence
That's been tearin you apart?
If only God could talk
If only God could talk
If only God could talk
If only God could talk

I'd never tell you one lie, I'd never let you down
I'd never leave, I'd be the one who'd always be around
Baby give me a chance
I'd pull the sun down from the sky to light your darkest night
I wouldn't let one drop of rain fall down into your life
Put your heart in my hands
Baby believe me I could never do you wrong
And I would never paint your world blue
And if sometimes it seems I must have lost my mind
I might be crazy, but I'm crazy about you
I'd lie for you and that's the truth
Do anything you asked me to
I'd even sell my soul for you
I'd do it all for you
If you'd just believe in me
Just take a look in my eyes, you'll see a love that's blind
Just take a hold of my hand, I'll take you to paradise
Ain't a star that's too far
Your every wish will be a wish that I will make come true
And if you want the moon I swear I'll bring it down for you
Let me into your heart
Believe me baby, got your name carved on my soul
'Cause you're the only one that I'll give it too
Go let'em say that I'm a fool to act this way
'Cause if I'm crazy, then I'm crazy 'bout you
I'd lie for you and that's the truth
Do anything you asked me too
I'd even sell my soul for you
I'd do it all for you
If you'd just believe in me
I'd lie for you and that's the truth
Move mountains if you want me to
I'd walk across the fire for you
I'd walk on the wild for you
If you'd just believe in me
And you will never see a day I'll ever break your heart
You'll see the sky fall down before it ever gets that far
I'll show you heaven every second that you're in my arms
Baby I'm crazy, but I'm crazy 'bout you
I'd lie for you and that's the truth
Do anything you asked me too
I'd even sell my soul for you
I'd do it all for you
If you'd just believe in me
I'd lie for you and that's the truth
Move mountains if you want me to
I'd walk across the fire for you
I'd walk on the wild for you
If you'd just believe in me
I'd lie for you and that's the truth
Do anything you asked me too
I'd even sell my soul for you
I'd do it all for you
If you'd just believe in me
I'd lie for you and that's the truth
Move mountains if you want me to
I'd walk across the fire for you
I'd walk on the wild for you
If you'd just believe in me
I'd lie for you and that's the truth

Whatever happened to Saturday Night
When you dressed up sharp and you felt alright
It don't seem the same since cosmic light
Came into my life, I thought I was divine
I used to drive around with a chick who'd go
Listen to the music on the radio
A saxaphone was blowing on a rock 'n' roll show
You climbed in the back seat
Really had a good time
Hot Patootie - Bless my soul
I really love that Rock and Roll
Hot Patootie - Bless my soul
I really love that Rock and Roll
Hot Patootie - Bless my soul
I really love that Rock and Roll
Hot Patootie - Bless my soul
I really love that Rock and Roll
My head used to swim from the perfume I smelt
My hand's kinda fumbled with her white plastic belt
I'd taste her baby pink lipstick and that's when I'd melt
She'd whisper in my ear tonight she really was mine
Get back in front put some hair-oil on
Buddy Holly was singing his very last song
With your arms around you girl you try to sing along
You felt pretty good
Really had a good time
Hot Patootie - Bless my soul
I really love that Rock and Roll
Hot Patootie - Bless my soul
I really love that Rock and Roll
Hot Patootie - Bless my soul
I really love that Rock and Roll
Hot Patootie - Bless my soul
I really love that Rock and Roll
Hot Patootie - Bless my soul
I really love that Rock and Roll
Hot Patootie - Bless my soul
I really love that Rock and Roll
Hot Patootie - Bless my soul
I really love that Rock and Roll
Hot Patootie - Bless my soul
I really love that Rock and Roll
Hot Patootie - Bless my soul
I really love that Rock and Roll
Hot Patootie - Bless my soul
I really love that Rock and Roll

Another night sleepless
I don't want to feel this
Nothing can stop this pain
Trying to get to
A time I forget you
Still tangled in yesterday
It's so easy for you
To give nothing for me
Did you ever feel anything?
I want you to cry over me
Die over me
Even for a moment
Even for a moment
I want you to hurt over me
Feel what I feel
I want you to cry over, die over me
Baby, just for one time
I want your heart broken
Some sign of emotion
I want to see the tears tumble down
Show me I meant something
And that you feel nothing
But your world crashing to the ground
It's so easy for you
To forget about me
Did I ever mean anything?
I want you to cry over me
Die over me
Even for a moment
Even for a moment
I want you to hurt over me
Feel what I feel
I want you to cry over, die over me
Baby, just for one time
Cry...
Cry...
Cry...
Well did you feel something?
Did we mean nothing at all?
I want you to cry over me
Die over me
Even for a moment
Even for a moment
I want you to hurt over me
Feel what I feel
Even for a moment
Oh why can't you just cry over, die over me
Baby, why can't you hurt like I do like I hurt over you
Can't you cry over, die over me
Baby, just for one time
I want you to cry over, die over me
Baby, want you to fall on your knees
Baby, crawl back to me
Want you to cry over, die over me
Baby, just one time...

(Steinman)
The sea is whipping the sky
The sky is whipping the sea
You can hide away forever from the storm
But you'll never hide away from me
The icy cold will cut us like a knife in the dark
And we may lose everything in the wind
But the Northern Lights are burning
And they're giving off sparks
I want to wrap myself around you like a winter skin
You know I'm onto your scent
We're near the end of the chase
Take a look out your window and I'll be there in the night
Your love is so close that I can almost taste it
The icy cold will cut us like a knife in the dark
And we may lose everything in the wind
But the Northern Lights are burning
And they're giving off sparks
I want to wrap myself around you like a winter skin
You've been living your life like a girl in a cage
And you whisper when I want you to shout
And I wonder why you wanna go on sleeping
When there's nothing left to dream about
But you better remember
If it's something I want then it's something I need
I wasn't built for comfort I was built for speed
If it's something I want then it's something I need
I wasn't built for comfort I was built for speed
And I know that I'm gonna be like this forever
I'm never gonna be what I should
And you think that I'll be bad for just a little while
But I know that I'll be bad for good
I know that I'll be bad for good
I know that I'll be bad for good
Your eyes are darker than sin
And I've been watching them glow
Take a chance on a promise and a roll of the dice
Put your foot on the gas, let it go, let it go, let it go
You've been living your life like a girl in a cage
And you whisper when I want you to shout
And wonder why you wanna go on sleeping
When there's nothing left to dream about
But you better remember
If it's something I want then it's something I need
I wasn't built for comfort I was built for speed
If it's something I want then it's something I need
I wasn't built for comfort I was built for speed
And I know that I'm gonna be like this forever
I'm never gonna be what I should
And you think that I'll be bad for just a little while
And you think that I'll be bad for just a little while
And you think that I'll be bad for just a little while
But I know that I'll be bad for good
I know that I'll be bad for good
I know that I'll be bad for good
I know that I'll be bad for good
Bad for good
Bad for good
For the good of some thrills on a long frigid night
For the good of the fire in your soul
For the good of the kiss let me hold you so tight
For the good of getting out of control
For the good of the action and a race in the dark
For the good of those chills up your spine
For the good of the rock and the roll in your heart
For the good of what's yours and what's mine
For the good of believing in a life after birth
For the good of your body so bright
For the good of the search for some heaven on earth
For the good of one hell of a night
For the good of one hell of a night
For the good of the action and a race in the dark
For the good of the fire in your soul
For the good of the rock and the roll in your heart
For the good of getting out of control
For the good of believing in a life after birth
For the good of your body so bright
For the good of the search for some heaven on earth
For the good of one hell of a night, for the good of one hell of a night
God speed!
God speed!
God speed! speed us away!
God speed!
God speed!
God speed! speed us away!
I'll be bad for good (God speed)
I'll be bad for good (God speed)
I'll be bad for good (God speed)
Speed us away, speed us away, speed us away, speed us away
The sea is whipping the sky
The sky is whipping the sea
You can hide away forever from the storm
But you'll never hide away from me
The icy cold will cut us like a knife in the dark
And we may lose everything in the wind
But the Northern Lights are burning
And they're giving off sparks
I want to wrap myself around you like a winter skin
I know that you can be bad
At least a little while
But if you give me a chance, give me one little chance
And give me all the love that you should
Then instead of being bad for just a little while
Then instead of being bad for just a little while
Then instead of being bad for just a little while
I'm gonna make you bad for good
I'm gonna make you bad for good
I'm gonna make you bad for good
I know that you'll be bad for good

I was nothing but a lonely boy looking for something new
And you were nothing but a lonely girl
But you were something
Something like a dream come through
I was a varsity tackle and a hell of a block
When I played my guitar
I made the canyons rock -- but --
Every Saturday night
I felt the fever grow
Do ya know what it's like
All revved up with no place to go
Do ya know what it's like
All revved up with no place to go
In the middle of a steaming night
I'm tossing in my sleep
And in the middle of a red-eyed dream
I see you coming
Coming on to give it to me
I was out on the prowl down by the edge of the track
And like a son of a jackal
I'm a leader of the pack -- but --
Every Saturday night
I felt the fever grow
Do ya know what it's like
All revved up with no place to go
Do ya know what it's like
All revved up with no place to go
Oh, baby, I'm a hunter in the dark of the forest
I've been stalking you and tracking you down
Cruising up and down the main drag all night long
We could be standing at the top of the world
Instead of sinking further down in the mud
You and me 'round about midnight
You and me 'round about midnight
Someone's got to draw first
Draw first
Someone's got to draw first blood
Someone's got to draw first blood
Oooh I got to draw first blood
Oooh I got to draw first blood
I was out on the prowl down by the edge of the track --
And like a son of a jackal I'm a leader of the pack -- but --
Every Saturday night
I felt the fever grow
Do ya know what it's like
All revved up with no place to go
Do ya know what it's like
All revved up with no place to go
I was nothing but a lonely all-American boy
Looking out for something to do
And you were nothing but a lonely all-American girl
But you were something like a dream come true
I was a varsity tackle and a hell of a block
And when I played my guitar I made the canyons rock
But every Saturday night
I felt the fever grow
All revved up with no place to go
All revved up with no place to go
All revved up with no place to go
All revved up with no place to go

Come with me and bless the night
Let the darkness be your salvation
Curse the day - escape the light
Break the chain of imagination
Come with me and seize the night
Now's the time for some inspiration
Leave the day and loose the light
No taboos only new sensations...
In the shadows of the city
A hero's waiting for the call
And all the angels are waking up
And all the devils start to fall
In the shadows of the city
They're dying for a thrill
They're going out over the edge
They're moving in for the kill
You gotta curse the day: it's nothing but a merciless light
So open up your arms and then you get down on your knees
You suck in all the darkness and you're ready now to seize
Seize the night
Seize the night
Dies irae, Kyrie! Libera me, Domine!
Dies irae, Kyrie! Requiem da, Domine!
Dies irae, Kyrie! Libera me, Domine!
Dies irae, Kyrie! Requiem da, Domine! [etc.]
Dies irae, Kyrie! Sanctus, Sanctus exultate!
Bless the night, before it has the chance to pass
Seize the night, you do what it takes to make it last
Bless the night, before it has the chance to pass
Seize the night, you do what it takes to make it last
Bless the night, before it has the chance to pass
Seize the night, you do what it takes to make it last...
Let your dreams out of their cages
Every passion and desire
Let your visions be outrageous
Set your fantasies on fire
Everything will be permitted
There'll be nothing left to fear
I got the magic in your body
Your inhibitions disappear
You gotta curse the day: it's nothing but a merciless light
So open up your arms and then you get down on your knees
You suck in all the darkness and you're ready now to seize
Seize the night
Seize the night
Dies irae, Kyrie! Libera me, Domine!
Dies irae, Kyrie! Requiem da, Domine!
Dies irae, Kyrie! Libera me, Domine!
Dies irae, Kyrie! Requiem da, Domine! [etc.]

Bam, Bam, Bam my sweet
You can sip it through s straw; you can throw it back neat
Just don't be hesitating, waiting for it
Because in an ideal world they'll be coming for you
Could be tokin' on the bale, could be sniffing out clues
Better stake your faking reputation on it
Do it, do it, just do it!
In a tax-free zone, down a tin can alley
There's a slipper girl-thing and man name Sally
They were talk-talk-talking about a clever little coffin nail
Seems, down at the docks the intended lies awaiting
And the privileged information's gonna get wet too
You can't be too careful when it comes to being careful
Do it, do it, just do it!
There's a man in my street keeps a flock of gray doves
And he's set in his ways, wearing Everlast gloves
His opinion can be beat when push becomes a shove
Says he doesn't give a monkey about the youth of the day
They should all drop dead, should be taken away
Put somewhere cold and all be made to stay
Do it, do it, just do it!
Bag it up, Bag it up
Do it!

Boy: On a hot summer night, would you offer your throat to the wolf with the red roses?
Girl: Will he offer me his mouth?
Boy: Yes
Girl: Will he offer me his teeth?
Boy: Yes
Girl: Will he offer me his jaws?
Boy: Yes
Girl: Will he offer me his hunger?
Boy: Yes
Girl: Again. Will he offer me his hunger?
Boy: YES
Girl: And will he starve without me?

Girl: And does he love me?
Boy: Yes
Girl: Yes
Boy: On a hot summer night, would you offer your throat to the wolf with the red roses?
Girl: Yes
Boy: I bet you say that to all the boys.
It was a hot summer night and the beach was burning
There was fog crawling over the sand
Oh when i listen to your heart i hear the whole world turning
I see the shooting stars falling through your trembling hands
Oh you were licking your lips and your lipstick shining i was dying just to ask for a taste
oh we were lying together in a silver lining by the light of the moon you know there's not another moment, not another moment, not another moment to waste
Oh well you hold me so close that my knees grow weak
and my soul is flying high above the ground
I'm trying to speak but no matter what i do
I just can't seem to make any sound
And then you took the words right out of my mouth
Oh it must have been while you were kissing me
You took the words right out of my mouth
Oh and i swear it's true
I was just about to say i love you
Now my body is shaking like a wave on the water and i guess that I'm beginning to grin
oh we're finally alone and we can do what we wanna
oh the night is young
and no-one's gonna no where you
no-one's gonna know where you
No-one's gonna know where you've been
Oh you were licking your lips and your lipstick shining i was dying just to ask for a taste
oh we were lying together in a silver lining by the light of the moon you know there's not another moment to waste
And then you took the words right out of my mouth
Oh it must have been while you were kissing me
You took the words right out of my mouth
Oh and i swear it's true
I was just about to say i love you

Should've listened when you said I'd miss you
Should've listened but I could not hear
You said I'd want you back
I said not a chance
Now I can see I was so blind
You're right I was wrong
To ever leave you
I made a mistake
I'm sorry now
You're right I was wrong
To ever let you go
Now I know, now I know
You're right I was wrong
Couldn't see it when I had you with me
Couldn't see that I had everything
And now I see it clear
And now you are not here
You said someday I'd change my mind
You're right I was wrong
To ever leave you
I made a mistake
I'm sorry now
You're right I was wrong
To ever let you go
Now I know, now I know
You're right I was wrong
If I could have one more chance to hold you
I would keep you here in my arms
And never let you got
Because now I know
You're right I was wrong
To ever leave you
I made a mistake
I'm sorry now
You're right I was wrong
To ever let you go
Now I know, now I know
You're right I was wrong

It was a hot summer night and the beach was burning
There was a fog crawling over the sand
When I listen to your heart I hear the whole world turning
I see the shooting stars
Falling through your trembling hands
You were licking your lips and your lipstick shining
I was dying just to ask for a taste
We were lying together in a silver lining
By the light of the moon
You know there's not another moment to waste
Not another moment
Not another moment to waste
You hold me so close that my knees grow weak
But my soul is flying high above the ground
I'm trying to speak but no matter what I do
I just can't seem to make any sound
And then you took the words right out of my mouth
Oh-it must have been while you were kissing me
You took the words right out of my mouth

Oh-it must have been while you were kissing me
You took the words right out of my mouth

Now my body is shaking like a wave on the water
And I guess that I'm beginning to grin
Oooh, we're finally alone and we can do what we want to
The night is young
And ain't no one gonna know where
No one gonna know where
No one's gonna know where you've been
You were licking your lips and your lipstick shining
I was dying just to ask for a taste
We were lying together in a silver lining
By the light of the moon
You know there's not another moment to waste
Not another moment
Not another moment to waste
And then you took the words right out of my mouth
Oh-it must have been while you were kissing me
You took the words right out of my mouth
And I swear it's true
I was just about to say I love you
And then you took the words right out of my mouth
Oh-it must have been while you were kissing me
You took the words right out of my mouth
And I swear it's true
I was just about to say I love you

Two a.m. with the lost and the lonely
Walkin' past the kids, comin' back from the party
Smiles on their faces, you remember so well how it was
Nights in the back of that Buick that you got runnin'
Your baby by your side, told the whole world you're comin'
Chorus:
Work so hard to do what is right
Believed in what you're doin',
but so many fights
Trusted too many, believed too much,
workin' your life to the bone
There's a wolf at your door,
he wants your money, wants your soul
A wolf at your door, you give it all, he wants more
There's a wolf at your door,
he says he's playin' for keeps
Breathin' down your neck, boy
it's sure hard to sleep
With a wolf at your door
They'll take it away, when you're not lookin'
Look you in the eyes, tell you how good they're doin'
Smiles on their faces, are lies to keep you from knowin'
You're not guilty, you are the victim,
but you still pay for the crime
Don't look for trouble, it'll always find you in time
Work so hard to do what is right
Believed in what you're doin',
but so many fights
Trusted too many, relieved too much,
workin' your life to the bone
There's a wolf at your door,
he says he's playin' for keeps
Breathin' down your neck, boy
it's sure hard to sleep
With a wolf at your door
It won't be broken, I'll fight 'til I drop,
blood burnin' hot in my veins
But they won't be satisfied until they take everything
(chorus repeats out...)

I don't know how I can do this
What am I supposed to say?
You have been my dream for so long
Now that dream is slipping away
I don't want to let you go
It's only that I know I must
I can't hardly get the words out
Baby is this the end of us?
You know that I want you
You know that I need you baby
You know that I love you
So why isn't that enough?
I've been sleeping in the daytime
I've been weeping at the scene
Wishing you would haunt me
And you would tell me this was all a dream
Wishing you ere here beside me
What I would give to hold you tight
But nothing I can do or say
Will change the truth tonight
You know that I want you
You know that I need you baby
You know that I love you
So why isn't that enough?
If I want you
And I need you
And I love you
And I want that to be enough
Because I want you
And I need you
And I love you
And I want that to be enough
Yes I want you
And I need you
And I love you
And I want that to be enough
(2x)
I don't want to let you go
It's only that I know I must
I can hardly get the words out
Baby is this the end of us?
You know that I want you
You know that I need you baby
You know that I love you
So why isn't that enough?
Why isn't that enough?
I wish it was enough

(Desmond Child/Nikki Sixx/John '5' Lowery)
I've been living my life in a cage
Freedom spits in my face
It was such a disgrace
And I was lonely
And feeling empty
Desperate
I had my head in a noose
I had nothing to loose
Had enough of abuse
And now I'm dangerous
Hateful, contagious
It haunts us
I'm angry (I'm angry)
I'm raging (I'm raging)
I'm breaking through the pain
The monster's loose
And now you know the truth
Tell me can you feel it
As you hit the wall
The monsters loose
And now you have to choose
And prove you can take it
To the top before you fall
I've walked a slippery road
Felt a twitch in my soul
Through the wind and the cold
With no protection
Just one direction
Destruction
I've paid for all my mistakes
Taking all I can take
Until I'm ready to break
I'm feeling vicious
And so outrageous
It breaks us
I'm leaving
Still breathing
I'm tearing through these chains
The monster's loose
And as you know the truth
Tell me can you feel it
As you hit the wall
The monster's loose
And now you have to choose
And prove you can take it
To the top and never fall
[Musical interlude]
I've lived a thousand years in darkness
Banished all alone
Inside my mind with just my madness
Behind these walls of stone

I was falling apart at the seams
Holding my breath just to breathe
I tasted the sting of my tears
[Musical interlude]
I was waking up stuck in a dream
Ran out of air, couldn't screamed
Wasted away by my fears
OOOOOOO
[Musical interlude]
The monster's loose
And now you know the truth
Tell me can you feel it
As you hit the wall
The monster's loose
And now you have to choose
And prove that you can take it
To the top and never fall
The monster's loose
You've lost your last excuse
Now show me that you got it
Even when you fall
The monster's loose
This game is win or loose
Sometimes you gotta' do it
And show the world you want it all
Yeahhhhhhaw
Yeahhhhhhaw
Yeahhhhhhaw
Yeahhhhhhaw

Listen
I was born on the other side
Just always looking to you
I made it over the great divide
Now I'm coming for you
Your forces lined up in battle
Your soldiers and your machines
The sun been blacked out by shadows
The darkest hour now you've ever seen
And I'm easy and I'm serious
They try and tear me down
You want me baby I dare you
Try and tear me down
I rose up on the doctor's slab
Like Lazarus from the pit
And everyone wants to take a stab
Decorate me with blood, graffiti and spit
I've been held up on money
I've been beaten out of spite
You want a piece of me honey?
Lose or win
You know you've been in a fight
And I'm easy and I'm serious
They try and tear me down
You want me baby I dare you
Try and tear me down
Girl: On March 6th, 1836 the walls of the Alamo fell to the Mexican army. After a 12-day siege, the troops of Santa Ana were victorious but too exhausted to hold on and the Texans won the war. It's further from El Paso to Texarkana, then from New York to Chicago. And when it joined the Union, Texas was the biggest state. Yeah, everything from Texas is big, larger than life and none bigger than little Marvin Aday. So big his daddy called him Meat Loaf. He grew into a big man, with a big voice. And he sings big songs and has big hits. You can try and tear him down.
Now there ain't much difference
Between a bridge and a wall
Without me right in the middle baby
You'll be nothing at all
And I'm easy and I'm serious
They try and tear me down
You want me baby I dare you
Try and tear me down

The waves are poundin' on the sand tonight
I want to take your hand and make it feel so right
I know I'm ready and I'll never be like this again
And the sky is trembling and the moon is pale
We're on the edge of forever and we're never gonna fail
I know you're ready and we're runnin' on the back of the wind
Chorus: [
And my body is burnin' like a naked wire
I wanna turn on the juice, I wanna fall in the fire
I'm gonna drown in the ocean in a bottomless sea
I'm gonna give you what I'm hopin' you'll be givin' to me
And when the waves are poundin' on the sand tonight
I wanna take your hand and make it good and make it right
Now the sky is trembling and the moon is pale
We're on the edge of forever and we're never gonna fail
How hard, how hard, how hard do I gotta try (I want all of your love)
Surf's up (I need it so bad), surf's up (I need it so bad)
Surf's up and so am I (I gotta give you some love)
Surf's up and so am I
(Solo)
(chorus)
Surf's up and so am I, surf's up and so am I

(Talking, talking - wealth, talking - money, talking - power
Talking - horses, talking - fun, talking - self, talking - power
Talking - diamonds, talking - ego, talking - man, talking - wealth)
(And talking - power) (repeats)
Money is power, power is fame
Chorus:
Talking about rock 'n' roll mercenaries
Soldiers of fortune by some other name
I'm talking about rock 'n' roll mercenaries
Money is power, 'n' power is fame
Everything you pay to hear - just listen
Everything to catch your ear - just listen
Whatever it takes, they're ready to sell
Anything and everything they do it themselves
(chorus)
Young are the victims so easily [swayed/slain]
[As some given are poisoned, all continuous placed]
Our conscience is a load, so heavy to carry, for a rock 'n' roll mercenary
(chorus)
It starts with a game, see how they play
Till all of the laughter is faded away
It's not for the song, it's not for the love
It's just for the gold and there's never enough - never enough
(chorus)
It's not for the song, it's not for the love
It's just for the gold, there's never enough
(chorus)
(Rock 'n' roll mercenaries)
(Talking, talking) (repeats out)
Rock 'n' roll mercenaries - ooh, talkin' about
Rock 'n' roll mercenaries... (to fade)

I've been trying for hours just to think of what exactly to say
I thought I'd leave you with a letter or firey speech
Like when an actor makes an exit at the end of a play
And I've been dying for hours trying to fill up all the holes with some sense
I'd like to know how you faded and you threw it away
I'd like to give you all the reasons and what everything meant
Well I could tell you good-bye or maybe see you around
With just a touch of a sarcastic thanks
We started out with a bang and at the top of the world
Now the guns are exhausted and the bullets are blanks
And everything's blank
Chorus:
If I could find the words then I would write it all down
If I could only find a voice I would speak
Oh it's there in my eyes so can't you see me tonight
C'mon and look at me and read 'em and weep
chorus
I've been whispering softly, trying to build a cry up to a scream
We let the past slip away, and put the future on hold
Now the present is nothing but a hollowed out dream
And I've been dying for hours trying to fill up all the holes with some sense
I'd like to know why you faded and you threw it away
I'd like to give you all the reasons and what everything meant
Well I could tell you good-bye or maybe see you around
With just a touch of a sarcastic thanks
But now the rooms are all empty, the candles are dark
The guns are exhausted and the bullets are blanks, and everything's blank
chorus
It's there in my eyes and coming straight from my heart
It's running silent and angry and deep
It's there in my eyes and it's all I can say, c'mon and read 'em and weep
Read 'em and weep - for all the hours we'll be spending alone
Read 'em and weep - for the dreams we'll ignore
Running silent and deep -
And all those promises we promised to keep, they won't be kept anymore
Read 'em and weep - for the magic that our bodies had made
Read 'em and weep - for the blood that we lost
Running silent and deep - and all the secrets that we somehow betrayed
For whatever the cost
Read 'em and weep - for the memories still alive in the bed
Read 'em and weep - for the lies we believed
Running silent and deep - and all the things that can never be said
Why don't you look at me and read 'em and weep
C'mon and look at me and read 'em and weep
It's there in my eyes and coming straight from my heart
It's running silent and angry and deep
It's here in my eyes and it's all I can say
C'mon look at me and read 'em and weep

Well, I remember every little thing as if it happened only yesterday
Parking by the lake and there was not another car in sight
And I never had a girl looking any better than you did
And all the kids at school, they were wishing they were me that night
And now our bodies are, oh, so close and tight
It never felt so good, it never felt so right
And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
C'mon, hold on tight
Oh, c'mon, hold on tight
Thought it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night
I can see paradise by the dashboard light
Ain't no doubt about it we were doubly blessed
'Cause we were barely seventeen and we were barely dressed
Ain't no doubt about it, baby, got to go and shout it
Ain't no doubt about it, we were doubly blessed
'Cause we were barely seventeen and we were barely dressed
Baby, doncha hear my heart you got it drowning out the radio
I've been waiting so long for you to come along and have some fun
Well, I gotta let you know no you're never gonna regret it
So open up your eyes, I got a big surprise, It'll feel all right
Well, I wanna make your motor run
And now our bodies are, oh, so close and tight
It never felt so good, it never felt so right
And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
C'mon, hold on tight
Oh, c'mon, hold on tight
Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night
I can see paradise by the dashboard light
Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night
I can see paradise by the dashboard light
You got to do what you can and let mother nature do the rest
Ain't no doubt about it we were doubly blessed
'Cause we were barely seventeen and we were barely
We're gonna go all the way tonight
We're gonna go all the way
And tonight's the night
We're gonna go all the way tonight
We're gonna go all the way
And tonight's the night
We're gonna go all the way tonight
We're gonna go all the way
And tonight's the night
We're gonna go all the way tonight
We're gonna go all the way
And tonight's the night
Okay, here we go, we got a real pressure cooker going here
Two down, nobody on, no score, bottom of the ninth
There's the windup, and there it is, a line shot up the middle
Look at him go, this boy can really fly, he's rounding first and really
Turning it on now, he's not letting up at all, he's gonna try for
Second, the ball is bobbled out in center, and here comes the
Throw, and what a throw! He's gonna slide in head first, here he
Comes, he's out! No, wait, safe, safe at second base, this kid
Really makes things happen out there, batter steps up to the
Plate, here's the pitch, he's going, and what a jump he's got!
He's trying for third, here's the throw, it's in the dirt-safe at
Third! Holy cow, stolen base! He's taking a pretty big lead out
There, almost daring him to try and pick him off, the pitcher
Glances over, winds up, and it's bunted, bunted down the third
Base line, the suicide squeeze is on, here he comes, squeeze
Play, it's gonna be close, holy cow, I think he's gonna make it
Stop right there! I gotta know right now
Before we go any further do you love me?
Will you love me forever? Do you need me?
Will you never leave me?
Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life?
Will you take me away and will you make me your wife?
Do you love me? Will you love me forever?
Do you need me? Will you never leave me?
Will you make me happy for the rest of my life?
Will you take me away and will you make me your wife?
I gotta know right now before we go any further
Do you love me? Will you love me forever?
Let me sleep on it, baby, baby, let me sleep on it
Let me sleep on it and I'll give you an answer in the morning
Let me sleep on it, baby, baby, let me sleep on it
Let me sleep on it and I'll give you an answer in the morning
Let me sleep on it, baby, baby, let me sleep on it
Let me sleep on it and I'll give you an answer in the morning
I gotta know right now, do you love me?
Will you love me forever? Do you need me?
Will you never leave me?
Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life?
Will you take me away and will you make me your wife?
I gotta know right now before we go any further
Do you love me? And will you love me forever?
What's it gonna be, boy? Come on
I can wait all night
What's it gonna be, boy? Yes or no
What's it gonna be, boy? Yes or no
Let me sleep on it, baby, baby, let me sleep on it
Well, let me sleep on it, I'll give you an answer in the morning
I gotta know right now, do you love me?
Will you love me forever? Do you need me?
Will you never leave me?
Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life?
Will you take me away and will you make me your wife?
I gotta know right now before we go any further
Do you love me? Will you love me forever?
Let me sleep on it
Will you love me forever?
Let me sleep on it
Will you love me forever?
Praying for the end of time, Lord, I was crazed
And when the feeling came upon me like a tidal wave
I started swearing to my God and on my mother's grave
That I would love you to the end of time
I swore that I would love you to the end of time
So now I'm praying for the end of time
To hurry up and arrive
'Cause if I gotta spend another minute with you
I don't think that I can really survive
I'll never break my promise or forget my vow
But God only knows what I can do right now
I'm praying for the end of time, It's all that I can do
Praying for the end of time so I can end my time with you
It was long ago and it was far away
And it was so much better that it is today
When it was long ago and it was far away
And it was so much better that it is today
It was long ago and it was far away
And it was so much better that it is today
When it was long ago and it was far away
And it was so much better that it is today
It was long ago and it was far away
And it was so much better that it is today
When it was long ago and it was far away
And it was so much better that it is today

(PART ONE)
At sunset you hear the soft parade is coming
And the cars and the beast behind, they all start humming
And ooh you got a cool machine, so let's get it runnin'
We'll break the silence of the night
And you know they're gonna hear us comin'
We always see them whisper, we know they're gonna talk
They fantasize the mysteries 'bout the night and the dark
So baby one more kiss, baby one more kiss,
We never have to say goodbye
Oh one more kiss, baby one more kiss,
It brings a little luck to the night
Artists got their easels, they're ready on the mark
Gonna try and take the pictures
Of the dust and the gold in the sparks
And ooh you got a cool machine, baby let's get it runnin'
You never looked so good before
And you know your time it's finally comin'
'Cause our home is the wind, you know we're gods of the mornin'
Champions of the night, when the engines are rumblin'
Our home is the wind, you know we're gods of the mornin'
Champions of the night, when the engines are rumblin'
So just one more kiss, baby one more kiss,
We never have to say goodbye
One more kiss, baby one more kiss,
I never wanna see you cry
One more kiss, baby one more kiss,
It brings a little luck to the night
One more kiss, baby one more kiss,
We never have to say goodbye
(PART TWO)
Ready, ready to roll, ready, ready to roll, ready, ready to roll, ready
Under my foot gonna hit it down,
Take this stance before the crowd
Sleepin' city urban fall,
Summer's sadness time to answer the call
Cool machine, get it runnin', ready to roll
Soft hands around my neck,
One more kiss then it's time to connect
Leave this child, leave me all alone,
This one's mine and I'm takin' it home
Ready, ready, ready to roll - this one's mine and I'm takin' it home
(PART THREE)
Now behind closed walls new histories start to rise
Of the soft parade and the heroes where they lie
And ooh you got a cool machine, baby let's get it runnin'
You never looked so good before
And you know your time it's finally comin'
'Cause our home is the wind, you know we're gods of the mornin'
Champions of the night, when the engines are rumblin'
Our home is the wind, you know we're gods of the mornin'
Champions of the night, when the engines are rumblin'
One more kiss, one more kiss, one more kiss, one more kiss
One more kiss, one more kiss
It brings a little luck, brings a little luck to the night
One more kiss, one more kiss, Ooh one more kiss
One more kiss, baby one more kiss, we never have to say goodbye
And ooh you got a cool machine, baby let's get it runnin'

The skies were pure and the fields were green
And the sun was brighter than it's ever been
When I grew up with my best friend Kenny
We were close as any brothers than you ever knew
It was always summer and the future called
We were ready for adventures and we wanted them all
And there was so much left to dream and so much time to make it real
But I can still recall the sting of all the tears when he was gone
They said he crashed and burned
I know I'll never learn why any boy should die so young
We were racing, we were soldiers of fortune
We got in trouble but we sure got around
There are times I think I see him peeling out of the dark
I think he's right behind me now and he's gaining ground
Chorus:
But it was long ago and it was far away, oh God it seems so very far
And if life is just a highway, then the soul is just a car
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
(Solo)
And when the sun descended and the night arose
I heard my father cursing everyone he knows
He was dangerous and drunk and defeated
And corroded by failure and envy and hate
There were endless winters and the dreams would freeze
Nowhere to hide and no leaves on the trees
And my father's eyes were blank as he hit me again and again and again
I know I still believe he'd never let me leave, I had to run away alone
So many threats and fears, so many wasted years before my life becamemy own
And though the nightmares should be over
Some of the terrors are still intact
I'll hear that ugly coarse and violent voice
And then he grabs me from behind and then he pulls me back
chorus
(Solo)
There was a beauty living on the edge of town
And she always put the top up and the hammer down
And she taught me everything I'll ever know
About the mystery and the muscle of love
The stars would glimmer and the moon would glow
I'm in the back seat with my Julie like a Romeo
And the signs along the highway all said, Caution! Kids At Play!
Those were the rights of spring and we did everything
There was salvation every night
We got our dreams reborn and our upholstery torn
But everything we tried was right
She used her body just like a bandage, she used my body just like a wound
I'll probably never know where she disappeared
But I can see her rising up out of the back seat now
Just like an angel rising up from a tomb
chorus
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
She used her body just like a bandage, she used my body just like a wound
I'll probably never know where she disappeared

Not a dry eye in the house
After love's curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking
I can still see you standing there
Midnight wind blowing through your hair
Remember, kisses sweet in the salty air
When love was forever
Turn the page and we fade to blue
The scene has changed now I'm without you
Well you just walked away when the act was through
And the dream was over
It was almost like a movie
(Aah)
The way you said, "Goodbye"
(Aah)
You must have spend a lot of time
(Aah)
Rehearsing each and every line
Now there's not a dry eye in the house
After loves curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking, breaking
Not a smile left on my face
The ending's just too sad to take
And there's not a dry eye
(Aah)
Not a dry eye in the house
(Aah)
The greatest story was you and me
We had it all we had everything, but now the
Story's done it's just history
(Ooo)
The last act is over
You every line had the sweetest sound
(Ooo)
(Oo, ooo)
Your every touch turned my world around
But then the, the lights came up and my world crashed down
(Aah)
End of show, it's over
It was almost like a movie
(Aah)
Those nights we touched the stars
(Aah)
Time stood still for you and I
(Aah)
Now it's sad enough to make you cry
And there's not a dry eye in the house
After love's curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking, breaking
Not a smile left on my face
The ending's just too sad to take
And there's not a dry eye
(Aah)
Not a dry eye in the house
(Aah)
Act one, the story's just begun
Act two, I fell in love with you
Act three, knew it was meant to be
(Aah, aah)
Act four, you don't love me no more
(Aah)
Not a dry eye in the house
After love's curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking
(Breaking)
Breaking
(Breaking)
Not a smile left on my face
The ending's just too sad to take
And there's not a dry eye
(Aah)
Not a dry eye
Not a dry eye in the house
After love's curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking, breaking
Not a dry eye in the house
Not a dry eye in the house
Not a dry eye in the house

The entire city is burning
You can see the flames like the inside of a mad jukebox
Lost boys stalk the streets with those jungle markings on their chests
Barbarians prowl in shadows, their heads rocking with rodents
Motorcycles reproduce in nocturnal alleys groaning with greasy pleasure
And they've blown up the YWCA like a giant balloon
And sent it out to sea full of screaming, lovely, lonely girls

(Child/Holly Knight/Elena Casals)
Tu eres cruel (monstro)
No eres fiel (monstro)
Hijo del mal (monstro)
Un ser fatal (monstro)
Tu corazon (monstro)

Operator number please.
It's been so many years.
And she'll remember my old voice.
While I fight the tears.
Hello, hello there is this Martha?
This is old tom frost.
And I am calling long distance.
Don't worry about the cost.
It's been 40 years or more.
Now Martha please recall.
And meet me out for coffee.
Where we'll talk about it all.
And those were days of roses.
Poetry and prose and Martha.
And all I had was you and all you had was me.
And there was no tomorrow's.
As we packed away our sorrows.
And we saved it for a rainy day.
And I feel so much older now.
And you're much older too.
Oh how's the husband how's the kids?
You know that I got married too!
Oh lucky that ya found someone.
to make ya feel secure.
Oh cause we were all so young and foolish.
And now we are mature.
And those were days of roses.
Poetry and prose and Martha.
And all I had was you and all you had was me.
And there was no tomorrow's.
As we packed away our sorrows.
And we saved it for a rainy day.
And I was so implusive.
I guess that I still am.
But all that really mattered then.
Was that I was a man.
I guess that our being together.
Was never meant to be.
Oh but Martha, Martha I love you.
Can't you see.
And those were days of roses.
Poetry and prose and Martha.
And all I had was you and all you had was me.
And there was no tomorrow's.
As we packed away our sorrows.
And we saved it for a rainy day.
And I remember quiet evenings.
Trembling close to you.

I want my money back
I want my money back
It's all or nothing
And nothing's all I ever get
Every time I turn it on
I burn it up and burn it out
It's always something
There's always something going wrong
That's the only guarantee
That's what this is all about
It's a never ending attack
Everything's a lie, and that's a fact
Life is a lemon and I want my money back!
And all the morons
And all the stooges with their coins
They're the ones who make the rules
It's not a game - it's just a rout
There's desperation
There's desperation in the air
It leaves a stain on all your clothes
And no detergant gets it out
And we're always slipping through the the cracks
Then the movie's over - fade to black
Life is a lemon and I want my money back!
I want my money back
I want my money back
What about love?
It's defective!
It's always breaking in half
What about sex?!
It's defective!
It's never built to really last
What about your family?
It's defective!
All the batteries are shot
What about your friends?
They're defective!
All the parts are out of stock
What about hope?
It's defective!
It's corroded and decayed
What about faith?
It's defective!
It's tattered and it's frayed
What about your Gods?
They're defective!
They forgot the warranty
What about your town?
It's defective!
It's a dead end street to me
What about your school?
It's defective!
It's a pack of useless lies
What about your work?
It's defective!
It's a crock and then you die
What about your childhood?
It's defective!
It's dead and buried in the past
What about your future?
It's defective!
And you can shove it up your ass!!
I want my money back
I want my money back
It's all or nothing
And nothing's all I ever get
Every time I turn it on
I burn it up and burn it out
It's a never ending attack
Everything's a lie, and that's a fact
Life is a lemon and I want my money back!
And we're always slipping through the the cracks
Then the movie's over-fade to black
Life is a lemon and I want my money back!

Well, I went home with the waitress
You know the way I always do
Well how was I to know
She was with the Russians, too
I was gambling in Havana
You know I took a little risk
Send lawyers, guns and money
Daddy, won't you get me out of this
I'm an innocent bystander
Somehow I got stuck
Between a rock and a hard place
And I'm down on my luck
Oh yea, I'm down on my luck
Oh yea, I'm down on my luck
Oh baby, I'm down on my luck
I'm so far down, I don't think I'll ever get up
If it weren't for bad luck
Oh if it weren't for bad luck
I wouldn't have no luck at all
Now I'm stranded in Honduras
I'm a desperate man
Send lawyers, guns and money
The shit has hit the fan
Send lawyers, guns and money
Send lawyers, guns and money
Get me out of this
Send lawyers, guns and money
You know the shit has hit the fan

I know you're goin', I know this is good-bye
And I can't make you stay, no matter how I try
But ooh if you're leaving, please grant this one request
And leave my heart with some happiness
If this is the last kiss, let's make it last all night
If this is the last time I'm ever, ever gonna hold you
Let me hold you tight till the morning light
If this is the last time, ooh we'll ever be together
Kiss me and baby give me something
Tender to remember you by
If I can't be with you, oh baby all my life
The next best thing is you next to me all through the night
Pull all the shades down, put your heart next to mine
Tonight give me a chance to feel heaven just one more time
And ooh if you're leaving, honey I'll set you free
Just leave my arms this one sweet memory
If this is the last kiss, let's make it last all night
If this is the last time I'm ever, ever gonna hold you
Let me hold you tight till the morning light
If this is the last time, ooh we'll ever be together
Kiss me and baby give me something
Tender to remember you by
If I can't be with you, oh baby all my life
The next best thing is you next to me all through the night
If this is the last kiss, let's make it last all night
If this is the last time I'm ever, ever gonna hold you
Let me hold you tight till the morning light
If this is the last time, ooh we'll ever be together
Kiss me and baby give me something
Tender to remember you by
Kiss me and baby give me something
Tender to remember you by
Baby give me something
Tender to remember you by

And I would do anything for love,
I'd run right into hell and back,
I would do anything for love,
I'll never lie to you and that's a fact.
But I'll never forget the way you feel right now
- Oh no - no way - And I would do anything for love,
But I won't do that, No I won't do that,
And some days it don't come easy,
And some days it don't come hard
Some days it don't come at all,
And these are the days that never end.
And some nights you breathing fire,
And some nights your carved in ice,
Some nights your like nothing I've ever seen before, or will again.
And maybe I'm crazy, Oh it's crazy and it's true,
I know you can save me, no one else can save me now but you.
As long as the planets are turning,
As long as the stars are burning,
As long as your dreams are coming true - You better believe it! -
That I would do anything for love!
Oh I would do anything for love,
Oh I would do anything for love,
But I won't do that, no I won't do that...
I would do anything for love,
Anything you've been dreaming of,
But I just won't do that...
I would do anything for love,
Anything you've been dreaming of,
But I just won't do...
And some days I pray for Silence,
And some days I pray for Soul,
Some days I just pray to the God of Sex and Drums and Rock 'N' Roll.
And Maybe I'm lonely, that's all I'm qualified to be,
There's just one and only, the one and only promise I can keep.
As long as the wheels are turning,
As long as the fires are burning,
As long as your prayers are coming true - You better believe it!
That I would do anything for love!
And you know it's true and that's a fact,
I would do anything for love!
And there'll never be no turning back -
But I'll never do it better than I do it with you,
So long - So long - And I would do anything for love,
Oh I would do anything for love,
I would do anything for love,
But I won't do that, No, No. No, I won't do that!
Girl : Will you raise me up?
Will you help me down?
Will you help get me right out of this Godforsaken town?
Will you make it all a little less cold?
Meat Loaf : I can do that! Ooh
I can do that!
Girl : Will you cater to every fantasy I've got?
Will ya hose me down with holy water - if I get too hot - hot?
Will you take me to places that I've never known?
Meat Loaf : I can do that! Ooh
I can do that!
Girl : I know the territory - I've been around,
It'll all turn to dust and we'll all fall down,
Sooner or later you'll be screwing around.
Meat Loaf: I won't do that!
No I won't do that!
Anything for love,
But I won't do that!

I can't stand to see it no more
The way you're living with a goddess but you treat her like a slave
And you can't hold her back anymore
She's like a dreamer in a dungeon or an angel in a cave
Chorus: [
And I'll be closer to you now than any other boy
And you know that what I'm saying is true
You're gonna break her up and tear her down and fade her away
And then there's no telling what I'm gonna do
I'll make you pay for everything that you do
I'll make you pay for everything that you do
But if you give me your girl, and then you give me your trust
And if you give me till the end of the night
I'm gonna love her for both of us
I'm gonna give her everything you always wanted to give
I'm gonna love her for both of us
I'm gonna take her every moment that she wanted to live
I'll let her shine like a jewel in the crown of the holy sun
You turned her into a ghost but she'll be burning when the night is done
I'll let her shine like a jewel in the crown of the holy sun
You turned her into a ghost but she'll be burning when the night is done
You gotta give me your girl and your trust
I'm gonna love her for both of us
You can't hide away anymore
You had a chance but you blew it and you'll never get it back
And your holiness was never so pure
She needs a fire in the heart and not a stabbing in the back
chorus
When the screws are tightnin' and the tears are falling
I can hear her crying out to be saved
And like a bolt of lightning I go answer the call
But she's singing like a siren to me over the waves
I never wanted to take away your lover
Until I heard her crying out to be saved
I always thought of you as one of my brothers
But she's singing like a siren to me over the waves
Singing like a siren to me over the waves
There ain't no holding me down!
(Instrumental break)
I'll let her shine like a jewel in the crown of the holy sun
You turned her into a ghost but she'll be burning when the night is done
I'll let her shine like a jewel in the crown of the holy sun
You turned her into a ghost but she'll be burning when the night is done
You gotta give me your girl and your trust
I'm gonna love her for both of us
I'm gonna love her for both of us, I'm gonna love her for both of us
(1):
I'm gonna love her for both of us
(Gonna give her everything you always wanted to give)
I'm gonna love her for both of us
(Gonna take her every moment that she wanted to live)
I'm gonna love her for both of us
(Gonna give her everything you always wanted to give)
(1) repeats 3x
I'm gonna love her for both of us
(Gonna take her every moment that she wanted to live)

I'd never tell you one lie, I'd never let you down
I'd never leave, I'd be the one who'd always be around
Baby give me a chance
I'd pull the sun down from the sky to light your darkest night
I wouldn't let one drop of rain fall down into your life
Put your heart in my hands
Baby believe me I could never do you wrong
And I would never paint your world blue
And if sometimes it seems I must have lost my mind
I might be crazy, but I'm crazy about you
I'd lie for you and that's the truth
Do anything you asked me to
I'd even sell my soul for you
I'd do it all for you
If you'd just believe in me
Just take a look in my eyes, you'll see a love that's blind
Just take a hold of my hand, I'll take you to paradise
Let me into your heart
Believe me baby, got your name carved on my soul
'Cause you're the only one that I'll give it to
Go let'em say that I'm a fool to act this way
'Cause if I'm crazy, I'm just crazy 'bout you
I'd lie for you and that's the truth
Move mountains if you want me to
I'd walk across the fire for you
I'd walk on the wire for you
If you'd just believe in me
And you will never see a day I'll ever break your heart
You'll see the sky fall down before it ever gets that far
I'll show you heaven every second that you're in my arms
Baby I'm crazy, but I'm crazy 'bout you
(Instrumental)
I'd lie for you and that's the truth
Do anything you asked me too
I'd even sell my soul for you
I'd do it all for you
If you'd just believe in me
I'd walk across the wire for you
(Move mountains if you want me to)
I'd walk across the fire for you
(Do anything you asked me too)
I'd lie for you...
...and that's the truth
Move mountains if you want me to
I'd walk across the fire for you
I'd walk on the wire for you
If you'd just believe in me

When the wind is howling through your window pane
It's not the only pain of the night
Your burning up in your bed, you gotta fever of love
And there's not an antibody insight
Hey Jenny, Jenny why are you crying
There's a beauty of a moon in the sky
But I guess when you've been leading such a sheltered life
You never lift your head and look so high
You don't have a lot
But it's all that you've got
And you can turn it into more than it seems
Just give it a shot
Fantisize every movement
And imagine every inch of your dreams
And no one said it had to be real
But it's gotta be something you can reach out and feel now
It ain't right
It ain't fair
Castles fall in the sand
And we fade in the air
And the good girls go to Heaven, but the bad girls go everywhere
Ooh now good girls go to Heaven, but the bad girls go everywhere
Sombody told me so
Somebody told me now I know
Every night in my prayers
I'll be praying
That the good girls go to Heaven, but the bad girls go everywhere
When the sweat is sizzling
On you skin in the dark
And your desperate now for somewhere to turn
Every muscle's in rebellion
Every nerve is on edge
And every limb is being erotically burned
Hey Johnny, Johnny why are you shaking?
When a boy should do whatever he can
You've been nothing but an angel
Every day of your life And now you wonder what it's like to be bad
You don't have a lot
But it's all that you've got
And you can turn it into more than it seems
Just give it a shot
Fantisize every movement
And imagine every inch of your dreams
And no one said it had to be real
But it's gotta be something you've been wanting to feel now
It ain't right
It ain't fair
Castles fall in the sand
And we fade in the air
And the good boys go to Heaven, but the bad boys go everywhere
Good boys go to Heaven, but the bad boys go everywhere
Sombody told me so
Somebody told me now I know
Every night in my prayers
I'll be praying
That the good boys go to Heaven, but the bad boys go everywhere
Every time I try and dream you
I can't beleive how hard it's been to
Conjure up your face and trace your body in the air
All the seconds go on forever
But the thirds and the forth ones are even better
And every time I do it just a little bit longer
Every time I dream, it's just a little bit stronger than
Real Life
And no one said it had to be real
But it's gotta be something you can reach out and feel now
It ain't right
It ain't fair
Castles fall in the sand
And we fade in the air
And the good girls go to Heaven, but the bad girls go everywhere
Ooh now good girls go to Heaven, but the bad girls go everywhere
Sombody told me so
Somebody told me now I know
Every night in my prayers
I'll be praying
That the good girls go to Heaven, but the bad girls go everywhere

Good girls go to heaven
But the bad girls go everywhere
When the wind is howling through your window pane
It's not the only pain of the night
You're burning up in your bed, you got a fever of love
And there's not an anti-body in sight
Hey Jenny, Jenny, why are you crying?
There's a beauty of a moon in the sky
But I guess when you've been leading such a sheltered life
You never lift your head and look so high
You don't have a lot, but it's all that you've got
And you can turn it into more than it seems
Just give it a shot,
Fantasize every movement
And imagine every inch of your dream
No one said it had to be real
But it's gotta be something you can reach out and feel now
It ain't right, it ain't fair
Castles fall in the sand and we fade in the air
And the good girls go to heaven,
But the bad girls go everywhere
Good girls go to heaven,
But the bad girls go everywhere
Somebody told me so,
Somebody told me now I know
Every night in my prayer,
I'll be praying that the
Good girls go to heaven,
But the bad girls go everywhere
When the sweat is sizzling on your skin in the dark
And you're desperate now for somewhere to turn
Every muscle in rebellion, every nerve is on edge
And every limb has been erotically burned
Hey Johnny, Johnny, why are you shaking?
When a boy should do whatever he can
You've been nothing but an angel every day of your life
And now you wonder what it's like to be damned
You don't have a lot, but it's all that you've got
And you can turn it into more than it seems
Just give it a shot,
Fantasize every movement
And imagine every inch of your dream
No one said it had to be real
But it's gotta be something you've been wanting to feel now
It ain't right, it ain't fair
Castles fall in the sand and we fade in the air
And the good boys go to heaven,
But the bad boys go everywhere
Good boys go to heaven,
But the bad boys go everywhere
Somebody told me so,
Somebody told me now I know
Every night in my prayer,
I'll be praying that the
Good boys go to heaven,
But the bad boys go everywhere
Every time I try and dream you,
I can't believe how hard it's been to
Conjure up your face
And trace your body in the air
All the seconds go on forever,
But the thirds and fourth ones are even better
Everytime I do it just a little bit longer
Everytime I dream,
It's just a little bit stronger than real life
Good girls go to heaven,
Bad girls go everywhere

May God bless and keep you always
May your wishes all come true
May you always do for others
And let others do for you
May you build a ladder to the stars
Climb on every rung
And may you stay forever young
Forever young, forever young
May you stay forever young
May you grow up to be righteous
May you grow up to be true
May you always know the truth
And see the lights surrounding you
May you always be courageous
Stand upright and be strong
And may you stay forever young
Forever young, forever young
May you stay forever young
May your hands always be busy
May your feet always be swift
May you have a strong foundation
When the winds of changes shift
May your heart always be joyful
May your song always be sung
And may you stay, yeah, forever young
Forever young, forever young

Instrumental Only

I took one look and something snapped inside,
I said I love your eyes
You took my heart, you took my breath away,
I felt my temperature rise
You said you've never loved a man this way
That it was heaven you were here to stay
Chorus:
And now you're just another fallen angel
And I hope that the fall didn't do you no harm
And now you're just another fallen angel
Falling into somebody else's arms
I took one look and I was paralyzed and was in paradise
I must admit that when I first laid eyes,
you had me hypnotized
You said I'm sorry but I don't say much
And I'm in heaven when I feel your touch
(chorus)
Follow your own road baby, I'll be there when you need me
To love and to comfort you
And what he got ain't enough to keep you in the air -
I'll be there
You said you've never loved a man this way
That it was heaven you were here to stay
(chorus)

I stare in the mirror, my eyes refuse to blink
Sympathy for me, hell I can't even think
Send for the iceman, my temperature is startin' to rise
I've heard it before 'n I know the truth from the lies
Is it any wonder heaven's racked with thunder
And all of my dreams go under like the fallin' rain
Execution day, execution day (execution day, execution day) - execution day
Execution day
Voices like locusts keep smothering me
Twisting and turning my senses like a cyclone at sea
Don't touch me now, won't let you crucify me
You ain't no damn jury, you can't pass no sentence on me
Is it any wonder heaven's racked with thunder
'N all of my dreams go under like the pourin' rain
Execution day, execution day, execution day
Whose blood on whose hands, where's the promises they preached for this land
Standin' there with bibles clutched in their hand
Whose blood on whose hands, whose blood on whose hands
(Whose blood, whose hands)
(Solo)
Execution day, execution day
Father my hands are shakin', I see the light, it's breakin'
Show me the way to set my soul free, I hope it rains on me
Let it rain on me
Execution day, execution day

If it takes them so long, so long to say yes, why don't they just say no
We don't need anyone to be put to the test, why don't they let us be
Chorus:
Livin' for the right to be, livin' for the right
Livin' for the right to be, livin' for the right
Livin' for the right to be free
We needed a plan, we needed defences, they couldn't raise a smile
As the world looked down, they raided our senses, there can be no reconcile
(chorus)
Burnin' down, burnin' down, burnin' down, burnin' down
There was a time in our life was taken for granted, it'll never come again
Our flower is dead, the seed is unplanted, they put it all to the flame
Burnin' down, burnin' down, burnin' down, burnin' down
Burnin' down, burnin' down, burnin' down, burnin' down
(chorus)
(Solo)
Burnin' down, burnin' down
Burnin' down, burnin' down, burnin' down, burnin' down... (to fade)

I still dream of you wakin' up, openin' your eyes
Like a little girl I once knew
Walkin' to the window, lookin' down on the street
You walk with me, and I walk with you
Well I thought it all over, it doesn't make any sense
Why did it fall apart, when it seemed so innocent?
You and I were like a light from a fallen star
You can't go back, you can't run away from your heart
Chorus:
Don't you look at me like that, 'cause I fall all over again
And I just can't hold on to your love anymore
Don't you look at me like that, 'cause I start all over again
And it just can't be, like it was once before
Don't stand there in the rain, lookin' like some long lost angel
You and I were like a light from a fallen star
You can't go back, you can't run away from your heart
Don't stand there in the rain, lookin' like some long lost angel
(No, I never could turn away from you)
(chorus repeats out)

So this is what it feels like
To be the one left behind
To give it all you've got then find
You've already changed you mind
And this is what it sounds like
Crying on the bed that we both made
Waiting for a sign that you just can't give me
Any kind of sign
I don't want to be here wide awake
Clinging to a love that can't be saved
Hanging off the edge of every word
that you say
So I asked myself, "Do I love you so much
That I'm willing to let you go?"
At the tip of my tongue the answer was "Yes"
But, at the bottom of my heart I'm wondering...
Did I say that?
Did I say that?
Sometimes you know I over react
And what I say is not a matter of fact
And I wish that I could take it all back
And you know I'd drag myself through fiire at
your side
And you know the gates of Heaven are surely
open wide
And I need some sympathy here
And I need someone to call my own
I'm standing in the light of my mistakes
And begging you, "come home"
And I know you need some time to run and hide
But the truth is hard to swallow when you're
choking on your pride
So I ask myself "Do I love you so much
that I'm willing to let you go?"
At the tip of my tounge the answer was "Yes"
But, at the back of my mind I'm wondering...
Did I say that?
Did I say that?
Sometimes you know I overreact
And what I say is not a matter of fact
And I wish that I could take it all back
But I said that
And I wish that I could take it all back
And I need some sympathy here
And I want a love to call my own
I want to take you in the back seat now
And slowly drive you home
And I know you need some time to run and hide
But the truth is hard to swallow when you're
choking on your pride
I don't want to be this wide-awake
Fighting for a love I can't save
And hanging off the edge of every word you say
Knowing that it might make me cry
I don't want to be this complicating
You can drag it out but I'll be waiting
I stumbled on "I love you" tonight
But it sounded like goodbye
Did I say that?
Did I say that?
Did I tell you that I loved you cause it
Would have been a matter of fact?
Did I say that?
This time I'm not letting go
Did I say that?
This time I'll have and I'll hold
Did I tell you that I loved you cause it
Would have been a matter of fact?
Did I say that?
This time I'm walking through fire
Did I say that?
This time I'll feed your desire
Did I say that?
This time I'll stand by your side
Did I say that?
This time I will be your pride
Did I say that?
This time I'm not letting go
Did I say that?
This time I'll have and I'll hold
Did I say that?
This time I'm walking through fire
Did I say that?
And I wish that I could take it all back
So this is what it feels like
To be the one left behind
To give it all you've got then find
That you've already changed your mind

(Steinman)
Cry, baby, cry
Cry, cry to heaven
Say a prayer and light a candle
Toll a bell
Cry, baby, cry
Cry, cry to heaven
If that doesn't do it for you
Go ahead, and cry like hell...
Cry, baby, cry
Cry, cry to heaven
Storm the castle, stem the tide
Rise above yourself
Cry, baby, cry
Cry, cry to heaven
If that doesn't do it for you
Go ahead, and cry like
Go ahead, and cry like

And you said nothing at all
Well - I couldn't have said it better myself
Tonight the conversation takes the fall
Just love me like you love nobody else
Little lady
I think there's something on your mind
I've known you long enough to know
The words are not that hard to find
And the harder you try
And the longer you go
Well, there's nothing but love
In those eyes any more
You know what to say - but you never know how
You can keep your mouth shut
Because it doesn't really matter right now
I will guide you all the way
Because I know exactly what you're trying to say:
You have the right
To remain silent
I'll get the lights ...
You get that smile
And you said nothing at all
Well - I couldn't have said it better myself
Tonight the conversation takes the fall
Just love me like you love nobody else
I see angels
They're standing right outside your door
Girl: They're watching over me
They're watching over us all
You can send them home tonight
Because you won't need them anymore
Girl: In your arms I think
I've found the safest place to fall
When I step in the door
And I stare at your face
There are so many things
That I wish I could say
Well I struggle with words - but they put up a fight
You can keep your mouth shut
Because it doesn't really matter tonight
I will guide you all the way
Because I know exactly what you're trying to say
Girl:
You have the right
To remain silent
I'll get the light
You get that smile
And you said nothing at all
Well - I couldn't have said it better myself
Tonight the conversation takes the fall
Just love me like you love nobody else
And I know you feel the same
You've been searching for the words
Now you know what to say, oh yeah ...
Just say nothing
(don't say a word)
(silence is gold)
(son't say a word)
Shhh ...
Oh , this is the moment we've been waiting for, oh yeah
Girl: If I exercise my right
I will take your body-language
And hold it against it you tonight, oh yeah
And I know you feel the same
I've wondered all my life
If this moment comes
Would I know what to say?
Then you say nothing at all
Girl: So many times I stumbled on the words that I wanted to say
Yeah you say nothing at all
Girl: So many thoughts, that I should have just let my heart explain
You say nothing at all
Girl: So many ways we could turn the words around
You said nothing at all
Girl: So many nights our hearts came crashing to the ground
You say nothing at all
Girl: So many dreams that are finally coming true
Well, I couldn't have said it better myself
Girl: Now you finish me off when you finish my thoughts the way you do!
Oh, you said nothing at all
(well I couldn't have said it better myself)
(tonight the conversation takes the fall)
(just love me like you love nobody else)
Well, I couldn't have said it
No I couldn't have said it
Oh better myself
(you said nothing at all)
Well I couldn't have said it better myself
Tonight the conversation takes the fall
Just love me like you love nobody else
You said nothing at all
Well I couldn't have said it better myself
Tonight the conversation takes the fall
Just love me like you love nobody else
Hey you said nothing at all

I am not afraid
To show you who I am
And I am not ashamed of my life
Though I've walked alone
Down this cold and soulless road
I've always felt you deep in my bones
With every step I rise and fall
With everything to gain
I end up losing it all
When the darkness gets in
I scream out and
Your light sets me free
I'm not afraid of the past no more
I'm not afraid that I'm bad for good
I used to dance to the devil's beat
If I could bust into hell I would
I'm not afraid to shed all my skin
I'm not afraid of the faults you see
I'm tearing down these walls right now
They're coming down cause I believe
Your love is blind
Blind as a bat
The way that you're leading me
Home like that
Your love is blind
Blind as a bat
I'm not afraid when they kick me down
I'm not afraid when I start to bleed
I'm not afraid if I live or die
I'm not afraid cause I believe
Your love is blind
Blind as a bat
The way that you're leading me
Home like that
Your love is blind
Blind as a bat
And I wish that I could give you
Something in return
For the precious time you wasted
On the tears I never earned
For reachin' out to help me
Cross the bridges I have burned
And in the end you'll finally see
That baby I've done everything I possibly can
I'd do it again
Cause I know you're everything that I need
I'm not afraid of the the truth no more
I'm not afraid of the lies I hid
I'm not afraid of the price of my sins
I curse the day for the wrongs I did
I'm not afraid of the things you know
I'm just a book for the world to read
My final words on the final page
Will be your name cause I believe
Your love is blind
Blind as a bat
The way that you're leading me
Home like that
Your love is blind
Blind as a bat
Your heart is kind
Mine's painted black
The way you forgive me
And just take me back
Your love is blind

I was so hypnotized by the smile in your eyes today
Flying free as a bird caught in every word you say
I wont ever want to see you
This is big time
This is larger than life
See the sparks fly when your standing by my side
Every step, every move, everything I do
Life is beautiful because of you
Every breathe that you give
You are my sweet oxygen i breathe
You made me fall away fast
So my dreams could get pass the end
I wont ever want to feel
This is big time
This is larger than life
See the sparks fly when your standing by my side
Every step, every move, everything I do
Life is beautiful because of you
How did I survive before you came into my life
I'd do anything at all
Anything at all
For you
This is big time
This is larger than life
See the sparks fly when your standing by my side
Every step, every move, everything I do
Life is beautiful because of you
This is big time
This is larger than life
See the sparks fly when your standing by my side
Every step, every move, everything I do
Life is beautiful because of you

instrumental

I'm still alive
Must have been a miracle
It's been a hell of ride
Destination still unknown
It's a fact of life:
If you make one wrong move with a gun to your head
You better walk the line or you'll be left for dead
I'm a runaway train on broken track
I'm the ticker on the bomb that you can't turn back this time
That's right
I got away with it all and I'm still alive
Let the end of the world come tumbling down
I'll be the last man standing on the ground
As long as hot blood runs trough my veins
I'm still alive
Lost in the night
Feeling so invisible
Oh, a dead man walking the wire
High above the devils net
That's made of fire
And it's a long way down from the top of the world
You better look around or you gonna get burned
I'm a runaway train on abroken track
I'm the ticker on the bomb that you can't turn back this time
That's right
I got away with it all and I'm still alive
Let the end of the world come tumbling down
I'll be the last man standing on the ground
And as the dust clears look in my eyes
I'm still alive
I'm still alive
The darkest night ain't black enough
To keep the morning light from shinin'
The highest wall ain't tall enough
To keep the smallest man from climbin'
The more that you resist the tide
The more it pulls you in
The more you hang on for your life
(I'm a runaway train on broken track)
(I'm the ticker on the bomb that you can't turn back this time)
(that's right)
That's right
I got away with it all and I'm still alive
I'm a runaway train on broken track
I'm the ticker on the bomb that you can't turn back this time
That's right
I got away with it all and I'm still alive
Let the end of the world come tumbling down
I'll be the last man standing on the ground
And if my sad old sonnet survives
I'm still alive

45 second of ecstasy
How it comes right back to me
Fly so high and feel so free
45 seconds of ecstasy
45 seconds of ecstasy
Cuts right through the complexity
When I feel him right next to me

45 Seconds of ecstacy
Oh, how it comes right back to me
Fly so high and feel so free
45 seconds of ecstacy
45 seconds of ecstacy
Cuts right through the compelxity
When I feel him right next to me

I've been looking for an original sin.
One with a twist and a bit of a spin.
I've done all of the old ones.
Till they've all been done in.
Now I'm just looking -
Then I'm gone with the wind -
Endlessly searching for an original sin.
You can dance forever.
You got a fire in your feet.
But will it ever be enough?
You know it'll never be enough.
You can fly and never land.
And never need to sleep.
But will it ever be enough?
You know it'll never be enough.
Not enough to make the nightmares go away.
Not enough to make the tears run dry.
Not enough to live a littel better everyday.
Everything that they taught us.
Was nothing but lies.
Everthing thing they brought us.
Was nothing but bribes.
But it'll all be over now -
All I wanted was a piece of the night.
I never got an equal share.
When the stars are out of sight.
And the moon is down -
The natives are so restless tonight.
I've been looking for an original sin.
One with a twist and a bit of a spin.
I've done all of the old ones.
Till they've all been done in.
Now I'm just looking -
Then I'm gone with the wind -
Endlessly searching for an original sin.
You can lose yourself in pleasure.
Till your body's going numb.
But will it ever be enough?
You know it'll never be enough.
You can always take whatever.
You conceivably could want.
But will it ever be enough?
You know it'll never be enough.
Not enough to make the nightmares go away.
Not enough to make the tears run dry.
Not enough to live a littel better everyday.
Everything that they taught us.
Was nothing but lies.
Everthing thing they brought us.
Was nothing but bribes.
But the lies are over now -
All I wanted was a piece of the night.
It neve rhad to get so dark.
When the stars are out of sight.
And the moon is down -
The natives are so restless tonight.
I've been looking for an original sin.
One with a twist and a bit of a spin.
I've done all of the old ones.
Till they've all been done in.
Now I'm just looking -
For an original sin.
I've been looking for the ultimate crime.
Infinite victims, infinitesimal time -
And I'm so guilty for no reson or rhyme.
So now I'm just looking.
And killing some time -
Endlessly searching for the ultimate crime.
I've been looking for an original sin.
One with a twist and a bit of a spin.
I've done all of the old ones.
Till they've all been done in.
Now I'm just looking -
Then I'm gone with the wind -
Endlessly searching for an original sin.
I'm applying for a license to thrill.
Going out on the edge -
Moving in for the kill.
They'll be hell to pay someday.
So put it all on the bill.
Cause we'll always be paying!
And paying until -
We're beyond expiration.
With a license to thrill.

You don't need to sneak in the door
Just come on in to the room
I've been lying in our bed in the dark all alone
I've been waiting, I've been waiting for you
There's been no reason to move
It's been as still as a tomb
I needed you oh so badly tonight
But I guess you had better things to do
I should have known that it was coming to this
But I must have been blind
I bet you still got a trace of his love in your eyes
And you still got his eyes on your mind
You swore you'd be with me at 7 o'clock
Now it's a quarter to 3
Well whatever you got and whoever it who was
I guess you couldn't get it from me
Whatever you got and whoever it who was
I guess you couldn't get it from me
I know that you love me, there's no need to talk
I see the look in your eyes and I got the proof
And there are no lies on your body so take off your dress
Oh I just want to get at the truth
I know that you love me, there's no need to talk
I see the look in your eyes and I got the proof
And there are no lies on your body ohh so take off your dress
Ohh I just want to get at the truth
And there are so many things that I just got to know
You tell me who, you tell me where, you tell me when?
But don't tell me now
I don't need any answers tonight
I just need some love, so turn out the lights
And I'll be left in the dark again
I just need some love, so turn out the lights
And I'll be left in the dark again
I just need some love, so turn out the lights
And I'll be left in the dark again ooh, in the dark again
I should have known that it was coming to this
But I must have been blind
I bet you still got a trace of his love in your eyes
And you still got his eyes on your mind
You swore you'd be with me at 7 o'clock
Now it's a quarter to 3
Well whatever you got and whoever it who was
I guess you couldn't get it from me
No I guess you couldn't get it from me
Oh but down in my soul, down in my soul I know
I know that you love me, there's no need to talk
I see the look in your eyes and I got the proof
And there are no lies on your body so take off your dress
Ohh, I just want to get at the truth
But there are so many things that I just got to know
You tell me who, you tell me where, you tell me when?
But don't tell me now
I don't need any answers tonight
I just need some love, so turn out the lights
I'll be left in the dark again
I just need some love, so turn out the lights
I'll be left in the dark again
Ohh, I just need some love, so turn out the lights
I'll be left in the dark again
Oh I just need some love, so turn out the lights
I'll be left in the dark again
Oh I just need some love, so turn out the lights
I'll be left in the dark again
Oh I just need some love, so turn out the lights
I'll be left in the dark again
Left in the dark

I know your goin'.
Iknow this is good-bye
And I can't make you stay.
No matter no matter how I try.
But ooh if your leaving.
Please grant this last request.
And leave my heart with some happiness.
If this is the last kiss.
Let's make it last all night.
If this is the last time I'm ever, ever gonna hold you.
Let me hold you tight till the morning light.
If this is the last time.
Ooh we'll ever be together.
Kiss me and baby give me something.
Tender to remember you by.
If I can't be with you.
Oh baby all my life.
The next best thing.
Is you next to me all through the night.
Pull all the shades down.
Put your heart next to mine.
Tonight give me a chance.
To feel heaven just one more time,
And ooh if your leaving.
Honey I'll set you free.
Just leave my arms this one sweet memory.
If this is the last kiss.
Let's make it last all night.
If this is the last time I'm ever, ever gonna hold you.
Let me hold you tight till the morning light.
If this is the last time.
Ooh we'll ever be together.
Kiss me and baby give me something.
Tender to remember you by.
If I can't be with you.
Oh baby all my life.
The next best thing.
Is you next to me all through the night.
If this is the last time I'm ever, ever gonna hold you.
Let me hold you tight till the morning light.
If this is the last time.
Ooh we'll ever be together.
Kiss me and baby give me something.
Tender to remember you by.
Kiss me and baby give me something.
Tender to remember you by.
Baby give me something.
Tender to remember you by.

Love's an hourglass
It goes out wide the comes in closer
Time ticks away
Drifts away leaving empty sanded shoulders
Who said that love could last forever
Oh, I'm growing tired of feeling like I do
As we drift apart
Little secrets come between us
As we sail away
Feelin' comfort in the distance
You said that love would last forever
Oh but neither one of us will ever surrender
There's a time
There's a place
A change of heart
About face
This is about love
It's about forgiveness
Tell me now, tell me like it is
You don't have to give
Amnesty is granted
What's done is done, for everyone
Come on baby let's start again right now
Amnesty is granted
You said that love would last forever
But neither one of us will ever surrender
There's a time
There's a place
A change of heart
About face
This is about love
It's about forgiveness
Tell me now, tell me like it is
You don't have to give
Amnesty is granted
What's done is done, for everyone
Come on baby let's start again right now

Lost Boys and Golden Girls - Taken from Bat Out Of Hell 2
Lost Boys and Golden Girls,
Down on the corner and all around the world,
Lost Boys and Golden girls,
Down on the corner and all around, all around the world.
It dosnt matter where there going, or wherever they've been,
'Cause they got one thing in common it's true,
They'll never let a night like tonight go to waste,
And let me tell you something, Neither will you, Neither will you.
We gotta be fast, we were born out of time,
Born out of time and alone,
And well never be as young as we are right now,
Running away and running for home, running fro home.
It dosnt matter where there going, or wherever they've been,
'Cause they got one thing in common it's true,
They'll never let a night like tonight go to waste,
And let me tell you something, Neither will you, Neither will you.
Lost Boys and Golden Girls,
Down on the corner and all around the world,
Lost Boys and Golden girls,

Wasted youth! Wasted youth!
I know that I will never be politically correct
And I don't give a damn about my lack of etiquette
As far as I'm concerned, the world could still be flat
And if the thrill is gone, then it's time to take it back
If the thrill is gone, then it's time to take it back
Who am I? Why am I here? Forget the questions, someone gimme another beer
What's the meaning of life, what's the meaning of it all?
You gotta learn to dance before you learn to crawl
You gotta learn to dance before you learn to crawl
So sign up all you raw recruits, throw away those designer suits
You got your weapons cocked, your targets in your sights
There's a party raging somewhere in the world
You gotta serve your country, gotta service your girl
You're all enlisted in the armies of the night
And I ain't in it for the power, and I ain't in it for the health
I ain't in it for the glory of anything at all
And I sure ain't in it for the wealth
But I'm in it till it's over and I just can't stop
If you wanna get it done, you gotta do it yourself
And I like my music like I like my life
Everything louder than everything else, everything louder than everything else
Everything louder than everything else, everything louder than everything else
Everything louder than everything else, everything louder than everything else
Wasted youth! Wasted youth! Wasted youth! Wasted youth!
They got a file on me and it's a mile long
And they say that they got all of the proof
That I'm just another case of arrested development
And just another wasted youth
They say that I'm in need of some radical discipline
They say I gotta face the truth
That I'm just another case of arrested development
And just another wasted youth
They say I'm wild and I'm reckless, I should be acting my age
I'm an impressionable child in a tumultuous world
And they say I'm at a difficult stage
But it seems to me to the contrary
Of all the crap they're going to put on the page
That a wasted youth is better by far than a wise and productive old age
A wasted youth is better by far than a wise and productive old age
A wasted youth is better by far than a wise and productive old age
A wasted youth is better by far than a wise and productive old age
A wasted youth is better by far than a wise and productive old age
A wasted youth is better by far than a wise and productive old age
If you want my views of history then there's something you should know
The three men I admire most are Curly, Larry and Mo!
If you don't worry 'bout the future, sooner or later it's the past
And if they say the thrill is gone, then it's time to take it back
If the thrill is gone, then it's time to take it back
So sign up all you raw recruits, throw away all those two-bit suits
You got your weapons cocked, your targets in your sights
There's a party raging somewhere in the world
You gotta serve your country, gotta service your girl
You're all inducted in the armies of the night
And I ain't in it for the power, and I ain't in it for the health
I ain't in it for the glory of anything at all
And I sure ain't in it for the wealth
But I'm in it till it's over and I just can't stop
If you wanna get it done, you gotta fight for yourself
And I like my music like I like my life
Everything louder than everything else (repeats out)

Into each life a little sunlight wants to shine
Let me tell you fortune life that once was mine
Chorus:
She was a special girl and she meant the world to me and I gave her everything
When I found her, I'd been looking everywhere
And when I lost her, I was lost beyond despair
(chorus)
Dreams are hard to touch, could it be I love her too much
(chorus)
Bottom line is she was fine in every way
And it's not with hesitation that I say
(chorus)
Dreams they come and go, but thoughts, like love, will always grow

I sold my soul to rock 'n' roll, when it didn't cost a thing
Stacks of scratched up 45's and taught myself how to sing
What does it take to be a rock 'n' roll hero, just like the king
Livin' your life in a blaze of glory, burnin' it up in a smoke filled club
Givin' your soul to the world
Chorus:
Like a rock 'n' roll hero, a soldier of fortune in the night
Like a rock 'n' roll hero, when the white hot lights cut thru the night
And the sound of the thunder starts roaring
That's when you know what you're savin' it for
And you're feeling like a rock 'n' roll hero
I owe it all to rock 'n' roll, and I wouldn't want to change a thing
Got this old guitar strapped round my neck, and my baby waitin' in the wings
What does it take to be a rock 'n' roll hero, just like the king
Livin' your life in a blaze of glory, a spark in your eyes
A flame in your soul, givin' it all to the world
(chorus)
Yes you're feeling like, oh you're feeling like
(chorus)
(Like a rock 'n' roll hero, like a rock 'n' roll hero)

(PART ONE)
At sunset you hear the soft parade is coming
And the cars and the beast behind, they all start humming
And ooh you got a cool machine, so let's get it runnin'
We'll break the silence of the night and you know they're gonna hear us comin'
We always see them whisper, we know they're gonna talk
They fantasize the mysteries 'bout the night and the dark
So baby one more kiss, baby one more kiss, we never have to say goodbye
Oh one more kiss, baby one more kiss, it brings a little luck to the night
Artists got their easels, they're ready on the mark
Gonna try and take the pictures of the dust and the gold in the sparks
And ooh you got a cool machine, baby let's get it runnin'
You never looked so good before and you know your time it's finally comin'
'Cause our home is the wind, you know we're gods of the mornin'
Champions of the night, when the engines are rumblin'
Our home is the wind, you know we're gods of the mornin'
Champions of the night, when the engines are rumblin'
So just one more kiss, baby one more kiss, we never have to say goodbye
One more kiss, baby one more kiss, I never wanna see you cry
One more kiss, baby one more kiss, it brings a little luck to the night
One more kiss, baby one more kiss, we never have to say goodbye
(PART TWO)
(Ready, ready to roll, ready, ready to roll, ready, ready to roll, ready)
Under my foot gonna hit it down, take this stance before the crowd
Sleepin' city urban fall, summer's sadness time to answer the call
(Cool machine, get it runnin', ready to roll)
Soft hands around my neck, one more kiss then it's time to connect
Leave this child, leave me all alone, this one's mine and I'm takin' it home
(Ready, ready, ready to roll)
This one's mine and I'm takin' it home
(PART THREE)
Now behind closed walls new histories start to rise
Of the soft parade and the heroes where they lie
And ooh you got a cool machine, baby let's get it runnin'
You never looked so good before and you know your time it's finally comin'
'Cause our home is the wind, you know we're gods of the mornin'
Champions of the night, when the engines are rumblin'
Our home is the wind, you know we're gods of the mornin'
Champions of the night, when the engines are rumblin'
(One more kiss, one more kiss, one more kiss, one more kiss)
(One more kiss, one more kiss)
It brings a little luck, brings a little luck to the night
(One more kiss, one more kiss)
Ooh one more kiss
One more kiss, baby one more kiss, we never have to say goodbye
And ooh you got a cool machine, baby let's get it runnin'

PHONECALL:
(This is one of the neighbors from down the street.
This record of this music has been goin' on all afternoon
and I'm sick and tired of it. If it doesn't stop I'm calling the police!)
You got me on the run, you got it your way
Now I'm feeling pretty good and I'm beginning to sweat
Your love is so fine, it's got me feelin' alright
Going out of my mind, I got to have you tonight
The girl's so deep inside, like blood in my veins
Never lets me hide, now I'm going insane
It makes me climb the walls, bite my nails to the bone
It's always by my side, it never leaves me alone
Chorus:
When it's time to get tough, I'm masculine (masculine, masculine)
When she wants to play rough, I'm masculine (masculine, masculine)
Masculine
I know that I'm a man from the spark in my soul
It can make me so hot, you got out of control
Grab her by the hair, drag her back to your cave
It's what makes a man a man, people always stay the same
(chorus)
I'm masculine
(Masculine, masculine)
(repeats)
Anytime, anyplace, anyway, in the heat of the nite and in the dark of the day
Anytime, anyplace, anyway
When it's time to get tough, I'm masculine (masculine, masculine)
When she wants to make love, I'm masculine - what d'you say?
When she wants to make love, I'm masculine
When she wants to play rough, I'm masculine (masculine, masculine)
When she wants to make love, I'm masculine (masculine, masculine)
If you push me I'll shove, I'm masculine
When she wants to play rough, I'm masculine
When she wants to make love, I'm masculine...
(to fade)

She thought she had the only key
She thought you only opened up to her, well you see
I don't know why you call it love
She thought she was the brightest light
But someone else was lighting up your life, what I think
I don't know why you call it love
I'm not suspicious, no not me, but I'm not blind
And I'd have to be not to see
Chorus:
Gettin' away with murder, you can love a girl and hurt her
That's gettin' away with, gettin' away with murder
You can tell a girl you love her, while you're working on another
That's gettin' away with, gettin' away with murder
You have had to love and run
Two in the hand has left you holding none, and I don't
I don't know how you call it love, no, no
You're not demanding, no not you, you're understanding
You do what you wanna do
(chorus)
You said she was the only one, but you were cheating all along
There ought to be a law for what you've done
I got to save you from yourself, I got to stop you from hurtin' someone else
(chorus repeats out)

Somewhere a red-eyes waitress glances at another movie magazine
Down on the corner there's a grocery boy stuffin' boxes fulla hungry dreams
Someone's cleanin' up the offices, one window burnin' in the dark
Somebody's cryin' is there any way in hell
To light a comet from a single spark
Workin' so hard I can't remember much about the freedom I been workin' for
Felt like a prisoner 'til I looked in your eyes
And saw a million wide open doors
Ya tell me put a little money away, well every dog will have his day in time
Well I been slavin' like a dog and I got nothin' to show ya
But a collar and a fist fulla nickels and dimes
Chorus:
I want a piece, a piece of the action, give me a shot at the real thing
I want a piece of the action, a piece of the action
Gonna turn on the master, gonna cut these strings
Gonna turn on the master, gonna cut these strings
Been livin' just like my old man did and neither once of us could get it right
Punchin' in when the day begins and punchin' out the local boys at night
There's someone leanin' on a peelin' porch
And someone leavin' on a silver plane
And I finally know the man I'd rather be
Girl I won't be back to getcha 'til they know my name
(chorus)
They hand you a paycheck every week and steal a piece of your soul every day
An' I don't need no gold watch in fifty years, baby let's be golden today
(chorus repeats 2x...)
(Solo)
(chorus)
Somewhere a red-eyes waitress glances at another movie magazine
Down on the corner there's a grocery boy stuffin' boxes fulla hungry dreams

It's getting cold, it's getting dark and the nights are longer everyday
The air is heavy and the clouds will never burn away
And we've been waiting here so long that we've forgotten, what it's like
To run into the fire, looking straight into the, straight into the light
Your heart is trying to rock but it can barely beat at all
You're soul is trying to run but all your body does is crawl
You don't need any signal, you don't need any sign
Nothin's gonna stop you once you cross over the line
I wanna tear it all apart and take the clothes right off your back
We're tearing down the highway and we're breaking away, breaking away
Breaking away, breaking away from the pack
Breaking away from the pack
And if you don't have anywhere to go
You go down on your pedal and you're ready to roll
And even if you don't have anywhere to go
You go down on your pedal and you're ready to roll
Speed, it's all you'll ever need
All you'll ever need to know
You and me we're going nowhere slowly
And we gotta get away from the past
There's nothing wrong with going nowhere baby
But we should be going nowhere fast
Everybody's going nowhere slowly
They're only fighting for the chance to be last
There's nothing wrong with going nowhere baby
But we should be going nowhere fast
It's so much better going nowhere fast
You shouldn't always see your world so clearly
You shouldn't always know your place so well
And all we're doing here is hanging around
And going anywhere, it's gonna be heaven
'Cuz staying here is gonna be hell
And going anywhere, it's gonna be heaven
'Cuz staying here is gotta be hell
I'm getting lost, I'm getting found, I'm getting born again each day
We're dying on the vine until we finally, till we finally get away
The boundaries of this town are closin' in just like a noose
The future's gonna rust if we don't put it to some, put it to some use
Your heart is trying to rock but it can barely beat at all
You're soul is trying to run but all your body does is crawl
You don't need any signal, you don't need any sign
Nothin's gonna stop you once you cross over the line
I wanna tear it all apart and take the clothes right off your back
We're tearing down the highway and we're breaking away, breaking away
Breaking away, breaking away from the pack
Breaking away from the pack
And if you don't have anywhere to go
You go down on the pedal and you're ready to roll
And even if you don't have anywhere to go
You go down on the pedal and you're ready to roll
And your speed it's all you'll ever need
All you'll ever need to know
You and me we're going nowhere slowly
And we gotta get away from the past
There's nothing wrong with going nowhere baby
But we should be going nowhere fast
Everybody's going nowhere slowly
They're only fighting for the chance to be last
There's nothing wrong with going nowhere baby
But we should be going nowhere fast
You and me we're going nowhere slowly
And we gotta get away from the past
There's nothing wrong with going nowhere baby
But we should be going nowhere fast
Everybody's going nowhere slowly
They're only fighting for the chance to be last
There's nothing wrong with going nowhere baby
But we should be going nowhere fast
You and me we're going nowhere slowly
And we gotta get away from the past
There's nothing wrong with going nowhere baby

(with Zee Carling)
Heaven blesses those who wait, patience is a virtue, son
Keep your toe on the line, keep your foot on the brake
No sense jumpin' the gun
But girl I'm tired of waitin', you know life's too short
Lemme kiss ya 'til the night is done
Ain't no doubt about it, you're my favourite sport, God I wanna jump the gun
Chorus:
Feel like jumpin' the gun, tonight I'm gonna jump the gun
No crime in havin' some fun, how about jumpin' the gun
(chorus)
Now they say it doesn't matter if ya win or lose
Only matters how ya play the game
Well, but let me tell ya baby, if I had to choose
Gotta win ya now or go insane
(chorus)
Willya hold me like a trophy, willya burn up the track
Willya love me when the title's won
Blow away the competition baby, never look back, honey willya jump the gun
Gonna hold ya like a trophy, gonna burn up the track
Gonna love ya when the title's won
They'll be eatin' up the dust baby, never look back
Tonight I'm gonna jump
(Solo)
Better get ready, better get set girl - this time we're jumpin' the gun
Ya think we're goin' too fast, ain't seen nothin' yet girl
This time we're jumpin' the gun
Ready take your mark, ooh I just can't wait - this time we're jumpin' the gun
Ya gotta break a couple rules if ya wanna break the tape
This time we're jumpin' the gun
(chorus repeats out)

Under your protective wing I walked into
the night
And a thousand angry demons up and
took flight
I went running through the fields with
the fever in my veins
And the rain came crashing down and
tried to clear my name
Above my head, all in red, I could see
you bearing down on me
You said you're not running out, you said
you're not leaving now
I will find you, there is no way
I'll keep tracking you down in the still of
the night
Forever, you're mine forever
Chorus:
Don't leave your mark on me, no need to
reply
I'm not staying, I'm just killing time
Don't leave your mark on me, no need to
reply
I'm not staying, no, I'm not staying no
This nightmare never ends, memories of
absent friends
Mistress of the darkness, accomplice of
the night
A shadow in the doorway beckons me
inside
And something led the way though I
couldn't see its face
And a voice from deep inside me
screamed to get out of this place
In my head, someone said that the jailor
turned the key on me
He said you're not running out, he said
you're not leaving now
I will find you, there ain't no way, no
way, yeah
(chorus)
This nightmare never ends, memories of
absent friends
(Solo)
Don't leave your mark on me
(Nightmares that will never end, drink a
toast to absent friends)
(repeats out)
--------------------------------------------------

Everything is permitted, everything is allowed
And all our gods we have outwitted, we are running with the crowd
And all the clocks are showing zero, and all our parents must have fled
And we just never had no heroes
And all our enemies will soon be stone cold dead
Everything is permitted, there is nothing out of bounds
There are no limits or no fences, there is always some way round
And all the compass points are zero, and all the navigators fled
And we just never had no heroes
And all our enemies will soon be stone cold dead
If everything is permitted, if nothing ever is taboo
Then there is always something shattered
When there is something breaking thru
(Instrumental break)
And all the clocks are showing zero, and all our parents must have fled
And we just never had no heroes
And all our enemies will soon be stone cold dead
If everything is permitted, if nothing ever is taboo
Then there is always something shattered
When there is something breaking thru
Then there is always something shattered
When there is something breaking thru

If a love as strong as ours
Couldn't make it all the way,
Can anything make sense at all?
If a love so deep and true
Couldn't stand the test of time,
Then Mount Everest could slide,
And Jeruselem could fall.
Is nothing sacred anymore?
Is forever just another word?
Is a promise something people used to keep
When love was worth fighting for?
If we can say good-bye,
If we can say good-bye,
Is nothing sacred anymore?
If we can say good-bye
Is nothing sacred anymore?
I can hear the final words
Every sentence that was said
Don't know what turned our lives around.
It doesn't matter who was right,
There's no justice in a dream.
Never thought a heart could break
Without making any sound.
Is nothing sacred anymore?
Is forever just another word?
Is a promise something people used to keep
When love was worth fighting for?
If we can say good-bye,
If we can say good-bye,
Is nothing sacred anymore?
If we can say good-bye
If we can say good-bye
Is nothing sacred anymore?
Our love was as certain as the dawn,
As solid and save as any love could be.
Our love was the star you wished upon,
And you thought that I saved you,
Could've sworn that you saved me.
Is nothing sacred anymore?
Is forever just another word?
Is a promise something people used to keep
When love was worth fighting for?
If we can say good-bye,
If we can say good-bye,
Is nothing sacred anymore?
Is nothing sacred anymore?
Is forever just another word?
Is a promise something people used to keep
When love was worth fighting for?
If we can say good-bye,
If we can say good-bye,
Is nothing sacred anymore?
If we can say good-bye,
If we can say good-bye...
Is nothing sacred anymore...
Is nothing sacred anymore...
Is nothing sacred anymore...

The locusts are singing
The Sun is red
It's gotten so late somehow
There's gonna be trouble
You know what they said
We should have been home by now
We should have been home by now
The thunder is rolling
The sky is black
It's gotten so dark somehow
There's gonna be danger
God I wish we were back
We should have been home by now
We should have been home by now
No matter what they tell us
No matter what they do
No matter what they teach us
What we believe is true
No matter what they call us
However they attack
No matter where they take us
We'll find our own way back
I can't deny what 1 believe
I can't be what I'm not
I know I'll love forever, I know -
No matter what.
If only tears were laughter
If only night was day
If only prayers were answered.
Then we would hear God say:
No matter what they tell you
No matter what they do
No matter what they teach you
What you believe is true
And I will keep you safe and strong
And sheltered from the storm
No matter where it's barren
A dream is being born
No matter where they follow
No matter where they lead
No matter how they judge us
I'll be everyone you need
No matter if the sun don't shine
Or if the skies are blue
No matter what the ending
My life began with you
I can't deny what I believe
I can't be what I'm not
I know this love's forever
I know no matter what
I can't deny what believe
I can't be what I'm not
I know this love's forever
That's all that matters now
No matter what
The thunder is rolling
The sky is black
It's gotten so dark somehow
There's gonna be danger God, I wish we were back
We should have been home by now
We should have been home by now

If you listen, to the night
You can hear the darkness call
I can barely stand to wait
I can barely stand at all
C'mon closer to me now
It's like we're sharing the same skin
We gotta get out of this jail
We gotta let the future in
So many things in your life
That your bound to regret
Why didn't I do That?
Why didn't I do this?
So many chances you lost
That you'll never forget
Why didn't I make it?
Why didn't I take it right there?
The loneliest words you'll ever know
";If only-if only it was so";
The emptiest words that there'll ever be:
";It could have been me";. ";It could have been me";
The loneliest words you'll ever know
";If only-if only it was so";
The emptiest words that there'll ever be:
";It could have been me";. ";It could have been me";
You'll have to pay for it later
If you don't get it when it's going for free
Believe me -! Believe me -!
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
It's something that's always been so
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
And one of these nights
You're gonna show me that you already know
There's a feast waiting for you
And you've never even gotten a taste
It's later than you think and
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste!
You shouldn't tremble when we touch
There's no reason for these fears
It's a promise that was made
We've been promised this for years
I wanna show you it all
What to do and where and how!
Cause we'll never be as young as we are right now
WE'LL NEVER BE AS YOUNG AS WE ARE RIGHT NOW!
So many cries in the night
That you try to ignore
Why didn't I do this?
Why didn't I do that?
So many unanswered prayers
So many unopened doors
Why didn't I take it?
Why didn't I make it come true?
The loneliest words you'll ever know:
";If only - if only it was so";
The emptiest words that there'll ever be:
";It could have been me";
";It could have been me";
The loneliest words you'll ever- know:
";If only - if only it was so";
The emptiest words that there'll ever be:
";It could have been me";
";It could have been me";
You'll have to pay for it later:
If you don't get it when it's going for free!
Believe me! Believe me, believe me!
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
It's something that has always been so
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
And one of these nights
I'm gonna show you that you already know...
There's a feast waiting for you
And you've never even gotten a taste
It's later than, you think and
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste!
There's a feast waiting for you
And you've never even gotten a taste
It's later than you think and
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste!
Tyre tracks and broken hearts
That's all we're leaving behind!
It doesn't matter what we're losing
It only matters what we're going to find!
Tyre tracks and broken hearts
That's all we're leaving behind!
It doesn't matter what we're losing
It only matters what we're going to find!
Tyre tracks and broken hearts
That's all we're leaving behind!
It doesn't matter what we're losing
It only matters what we're going to find!
Tyre tracks and broken hearts
That's all we're leaving behind!
It doesn't matter what we're losing
It only matters what we're going to find!
There's a feast waiting for you
And you've never even gotten a taste
It's later than you think and
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste

You sure know what your name is, you sure of where ya live
You know how much you make, ah, ya know how much you give
You know where your house is, you know which road to take
Ah, you're sure 'bout lots of things, look out there's one mistake
Chorus:
There just ain't no doubt, there's just one thing you're never too sure about
Never can be too sure about the girl
Oh, you never can be too sure about the girl
You leave her there, when you get back
She calls ya Bill, when your name is Jack
Never can be too sure about the girl
You know about the truth, you can see it in her eyes
One thing you know about love, it'll cut ya down to size
You hear what they tell you, do you do what you're told
And if they say yes, does it mean it's really so?
(chorus)
You're ready for the thrill tonight, you think you'll take it slow
But she's forgotten more, boy, than you will ever know
She calls you up in the middle of the night, she says she's lonesome and alone
You're all revved up, finally some place to go
You knock on that door - nobody's home
Never can be too sure about the girl
Ooh, you never can be too sure about the girl
You leave her there, when you get back
She calls ya Bill, when your name is Jack
Never can be too sure about the girl
Oh, you never can be too sure about the girl
She'll drive you crazy boy, oh, girl, no no
Never can be too sure about the girl
Never too sure, never too sure, never too sure, never too sure
Never too sure about that girl
No, you never can be too sure about the girl
Oh, you never can be too sure about the girl... (to fade)

I left my home in Norfolk, Virginia, California on my mind
I straddled that greyhound and rode him into Raleigh, and on across Caroline
I had motor trouble that turned into a struggle, halfway across Alabama
And that 'Hound broke down and left me all stranded in Downtown Birmingham
Right away I bought me a through train ticket, ridin' across Mississippi clean
And I was on the Midnight Flyer out of Birmingham, smokin' into New Orleans
Somebody helped me get out of Louisiana, just to help me get to Houston Town
There are people there who care a little 'bout me
And they won't let a poor boy down
Sure as you're born, they bought me a silk suit, they put luggage in my hand
And I woke up high over Albuquerque on a jet to the Promised Land
Workin' on a T-bone steak, I had a party flyin' over to the Golden State
When the pilot told me in thirteen minutes
He would get us at the Terminal zone
Swing low, chariot, come down easy, taxi to the Terminal zone
Cut your engines and cool your wings, and let me make it to the telephone
Los Angeles, give me Norfolk, Virginia, Tidewater 41009
And tell the folks back home this is the Promised Land callin'
And the poor boy's on the line
(repeats 2x)
And tell the folks back home this is the Promised Land callin'
And their big boy's on the line

Another New York waltz at four a.m., in the canyons lost at night
The city's just a jail for me, full of high rise prison walls
And I'm riding through this darkness, 'cause I know there's life within
And I'm searching through the shadows, just to find that light again
Keep driving (keep driving), let the meter run
Keep driving (keep driving), oh the night's not really done
Keep driving
And I'm hanging on a memory, and I feel it in the air
I'm a prisoner of these lonely streets, but I know I'll find you there
And oh Lord, you look so pretty, but you can see it in my eyes
And just before my tear will fall, oh you smile and get inside
It seems so real until the light turns green
Don't wake me up, don't ruin this dream, don't take me from my scene
Keep driving, keep driving, keep driving, keep driving
I can't go home, don't take me home, I can't go home alone
(Solo)
They don't tell you when the music stops, or how the movie ends
Is it too late once the feeling's gone, to back it up and start it all again?
Oh Lord you look so pretty, and you can see it in my eyes
And just before that tear will fall, oh you smile and get inside
(Keep driving) keep driving, driving
I can't go home, don't take me home, I can't go home alone
(Keep driving) let the meter run, (keep driving) don't take me home
(Keep driving) ooh, the night's still young
(Keep driving) I gotta find someone, (keep driving) I gotta find someone
(Keep driving) I gotta find someone, (keep driving) I gotta find someone
(Keep driving) ooh find someone, (keep driving) I gotta find someone
(Keep driving) find someone, (keep driving) find someone
(Keep driving, keep driving, keep driving, keep driving, keep driving)

You say you're all alone, and after all the changes you've been through today
You can use a little tenderness, right now
OK, I've been alone, and I can understand the way you feel tonight
Maybe together we can charge it all right now
I can tell by the look in your tear-filled eyes
You need somebody you can hold onto
If you really want to, I'd love to hold you
If you really want to, then I'd love to be the body that you hold onto
You say, he broke your heart, he left you crying, but he did not set you free
And now you feel like you can never love again
OK, so let me know, it's up to you how long you let his memory stay
And do you really wanna carry on this way
I can tell by the look in your tear-filled eyes
You need somebody you can hold onto
If you really want to, I'd love to hold you
If you really want to, then I'd love to be the body that you hold onto
If you really want to, if you really want to, then I really can't deny you
So many things you need to know, so many left to say
But you mean more than words I know, I can help you chase the pain away
(Solo)
I can tell by the look in your tear-filled eyes
You need somebody you can hold onto
If you really want to, if you really want to
If you really want to, then I'd love to be the body that you hold onto
If you really want to, if you really want to, then I really can't deny you
If you really want to, if you really want to
If you really want to... (to fade)

MAN:
Ain't no hidden treasure
In this pot of gold you see
Ain't no way for you to make
No silky purse out of me
WOMAN:
Well I'm never ever gonna change your way
I dig you as you are
And you've got something that I want
And that's worth waiting for
CHORUS (TOGETHER):
What you see is what you get
And you ain't seen nothing yet
What you see is what you get
And you ain't seen nothing yet
MAN:
I told you that I loved you
Right from the very start
Now don't you make me sorry girl
That I opened up my heart
WOMAN:
Well I know that I'm no angel
This ain't my first time out
But you can count on what I got
Cause what I got's a lot don't you know
CHORUS (TOGETHER)
MAN (spoken):
WOMAN:
When it's cold I want it hot
I've always wanted what is not
But when it comes to loving you
I'm yours no matter what you do
MAN:
Oh you're my baby, and I'm your man
This is mother natures plan
WOMAN:
Can't you see, it's a fact
Loving you is where it's at
What you see is what you get
And you ain't seen nothing yet
(repeats)

Out of the Frying Pan (And into the Fire)
It's only two o'clock and the temperture's beginning to soar
And all around the city you see the walking wounded and the living dead
It's never been this hot and I've never been so bored
And breathing is just no fun anymore
And then I saw you like a summer dream
And you're the answer to every prayer that I ever said
I saw you like a summer dream
And you're the answer to every prayer that I ever said
You can feel the pulse of the pavement racing like a runaway horse
The subways are steaming and the skin of the street is gleaming with sweat
I've seen you sitting on the steps outside
And you were looking so restless and reckless and lost
I think it's time for you to come inside
I'll be waiting here with something that you'll never forget
I think it's time for you to come inside
I'll be waiting here with something that you'll never forget
Come on! Come on!
And there'll be no turning back
You were only killing time and it'll kill you right back
Come on! Come on!
It's time to burn up the fuse
You've got nothing to do and even less to lose
You've got nothing to do and even less to lose
So wander down the ancient hallway
Taking the stairs only one at a time
Follow the sound of my heartbeat now
I'm in the room at the top, you're at the end of the line
Open the door and lay down on the bed
The sun is just a ball of desire
And I wanna take you out of the frying pan (and into the fire)
Out of the frying pan (and into the fire)
Out of the frying pan (and into the fire)
And I wanna take you out of the frying pan (and into the fire)
Out of the frying pan (and into the fire)
Out of the frying pan (and into the fire)
And into the fire! fire! fire!
And into the fire! fire! fire!
And into the fire! fire! fire!
And into the fire!
It's only two o'clock and the tempertures beginning to soar
And all around the city you see the walking wounded and the living dead
It's never been this hot and I've never been so bored
And breathing is just no fun anymore
And then I saw you like a summer dream
And you're the answer to every prayer that I ever said
I saw you like a summer dream
And you're the answer to every prayer that I ever said
Come on! Come on!
And there'll be no turning back
You were only killing time and it'll kill you right back
Come on! Come on!
It's time to burn up the fuse
You've got nothing to do and even less to lose
You've got nothing to do and even less to lose
So wander down the ancient hallway
Taking the stairs only one at a time
Follow the sound of my heartbeat now
I'm in the room at the top, you're at the end of the line
Open the door and lay down on the bed
The sun is just a ball of desire
And I wanna take you out of the frying pan (and into the fire)
Out of the frying pan (and into the fire)
Out of the frying pan (and into the fire)
And I wanna take you out of the frying pan (and into the fire)
Out of the frying pan (and into the fire)
Out of the frying pan (and into the fire)
And into the fire! fire! fire!
And into the fire! fire! fire!
And into the fire! fire! fire!
And into the fire!

OBJECTS IN THE REAR VIEW MIRROR MAY APPEAR CLOSER THAN THEY ARE
The skies were pure and the fields were green
And the sun was brighter than it's ever been
When I grew up with my best friend Kenny
We were close as any brothers than you ever knew
It was always summer and the future called
We were ready for adventures and we wanted them all
And there was so much left to dream and so much time to make it real
But I can still recall the sting of all the tears when he was gone
They said he crashed and burned
I know I'll never learn why any boy should die so young
We were racing, we were soldiers of fortune
We got in trouble but we sure got around
There are times I think I see him peeling out of the dark
I think he's right behind me now and he's gaining ground
But it was long ago and it was far away, oh God it seems so very far
And if life is just a highway, then the soul is just a car
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
And when the sun descended and the night arose
I heard my father cursing everyone he knows
He was dangerous and drunk and defeated
And corroded by failure and envy and hate
There were endless winters and the dreams would freeze
Nowhere to hide and no leaves on the trees
And my father's eyes were blank as he hit me again and again and again
I know I still believe he'd never let me leave, I had to run away alone
So many threats and fears, so many wasted years before my life became
my own
And though the nightmares should be over
Some of the terrors are still intact
I'll hear that ugly coarse and violent voice
And then he grabs me from behind and then he pulls me back
There was a beauty living on the edge of town
And she always put the top up and the hammer down
And she taught me everything I'll ever know
About the mystery and the muscle of love
The stars would glimmer and the moon would glow
I'm in the back seat with my Julie like a Romeo
And the signs along the highway all said, Caution! Kids At Play!
Those were the rights of spring and we did everything
There was salvation every night
We got our dreams reborn and our upholstery torn
But everything we tried was right
She used her body just like a bandage
She used my body just like a wound
I'll probably never know where she disappeared
But I can see her rising up out of the back seat now
Just like an angel rising up from a tomb
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
She used her body just like a bandage
She used my body just like a wound
I'll probably never know where she disappeared
But I can see her rising up out of the back seat now

And I would do anything for love, I'd run right into hell and back
I would do anything for love, I'll never lie to you and that's a fact
But I'll never forget the way you feel right now, oh no, no way
And I would do anything for love, but I won't do that, I won't do that
Anything for love, oh I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love, but I won't do that, oh I won't do that
Some days it don't come easy, and some days it don't come hard
Some days it don't come at all, and these are the days that never end
Some nights you're breathing fire, and some nights you're carved in ice
Some nights you're like nothing I've ever seen before or will again
Maybe I'm crazy, but it's crazy and it's true
I know you can save me, no one else can save me now but you
As long as the planets are turning, as long as the stars are burning
As long as your dreams are coming true, you better believe it
That I would do anything for love, and I'll be there til the final act
I would do anything for love, and I'll take a vow and seal a pact
But I'll never forgive myself if we don't go all the way tonight
And I would do anything for love, oh I would do anything for love
Oh I would do anything for love, but I won't do that, no I won't do that
I would do anything for love, anything you've been dreaming of
But I just won't do that
Some days I pray for silence, and somedays I pray for soul
Some days I just pray to the God of Sex and Drums and Rock 'N Roll
Some nights I lose the feeling, and some nights I lose control
Some nights I just lose it all when I watch you dance and the thunder rolls
Maybe I'm lonely and that's all I'm qualified to be
There's just one and only, the one and only promise I can keep
As long as the wheels are turning, as long as the fires are burning
As long as your prayers are coming true, you better believe it
That I would do anything for love, and you know it's true and that's a fact
I would do anything for love, and there'll never be no turning back
But I'll never do it better than I do it with you, so long, so long
And I would do anything for love, oh I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love, but I won't do that, no no no I won't do that
I would do anything for love, anything you've been dreaming of
But I just won't do that
But I'll never stop dreaming of you every night of my life, no way
And I would do anything for love, oh I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that
No I won't do that
Will you raise me up, will you help me down?
Will you get me right out of this Godforsaken town?
Will you make it all a little less cold?
I can do that! I can do that!
Will you hold me sacred? Will you hold me tight?
Can you colorize my life, I'm so sick of black and white?
Can you make it all a little less old?
I can do that! Oh oh, now I can do that!
Will you make me some magic, with your own two hands?
Can you build an emerald city with these grains of sand?
Can you give me something I can take home?
I can do that! Oh oh now, I can do that!
Will you cater to every fantasy I got?
Will ya hose me down with holy water, if I get too hot?
Will you take me places I've never known?
I can do that! Oh oh now, I can do that!
After a while you'll forget everything
It was a brief interlude and a midsummer night's fling
And you'll see that it's time to move on
I won't do that! No I won't do that!
I know the territory, I've been around
It'll all turn to dust and we'll all fall down
And sooner or later, you'll be screwing around
I won't do that! No I won't do that!
Anything for love, oh I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love, but I won't do that, no I won't do that

hot patootie
what ever to saturday nights
when you dressed up sharp and you felt alright
it doesnt feel the same since cosmic light
came into my life and i thought i was divine
i used to go for a ride with a chick who'd go
and listen to the music on the radio
a saxafone blowing on a rock 'n' roll show
hot patootie bless my soul i really love that rock 'n' roll
(repeat 3 times)
saxaphone solo
My head used to swim from the perfume i smelled
my hands kind of fumbled with her white plastic belt
i taste her baby pink lipstick and that's when i melt
she whispered in my ear tonight she really was mine
get back in front put some hair oil on
buddy holly was singing his very last song
with you're arms around the girl you really tried to sing along
it felt pretty good , woo you really had a good time
hot patootie bless my soal i really love that rock 'n' roll
(repeat three times)
saxaphone solo
hoy patootie bless my soal i really love that rock 'n' roll
(repeat eight times)

When the wind is howling through your window pane
It's not the only pain of the night
Your burning up in your bed, you gotta fever of love
And there's not an antibody insight
Hey Jenny, Jenny why are you crying
There's a beauty of a moon in the sky
But I guess when you've been leading such a sheltered life
You never lift your head and look so high
You don't have a lot
But it's all that you've got
And you can turn it into more than it seems
Just give it a shot
Fantisize every movement
And imagine every inch of your dreams
And no one said it had to be real
But it's gotta be something you can reach out and feel now
It ain't right
It ain't fair
Castles fall in the sand
And we fade in the air
And the good girls go to Heaven, but the bad girls go everywhere
Ooh now good girls go to Heaven, but the bad girls go everywhere
Sombody told me so
Somebody told me now I know
Every night in my prayers
I'll be praying
That the good girls go to Heaven, but the bad girls go everywhere
When the sweat is sizzling
On you skin in the dark
And your desperate now for somewhere to turn
Every muscle's in rebellion
Every nerve is on edge
And every limb is being erotically burned
Hey Johnny, Johnny why are you shaking?
When a boy should do whatever he can
You've been nothing but an angel
Every day of your life And now you wonder what it's like to be bad
You don't have a lot
But it's all that you've got
And you can turn it into more than it seems
Just give it a shot
Fantisize every movement
And imagine every inch of your dreams
And no one said it had to be real
But it's gotta be something you've been wanting to feel now
It ain't right
It ain't fair
Castles fall in the sand
And we fade in the air
And the good boys go to Heaven, but the bad boys go everywhere
Good boys go to Heaven, but the bad boys go everywhere
Sombody told me so
Somebody told me now I know
Every night in my prayers
I'll be praying
That the good boys go to Heaven, but the bad boys go everywhere
Every time I try and dream you
I can't beleive how hard it's been to
Conjure up your face and trace your body in the air
All the seconds go on forever
But the thirds and the forth ones are even better
And every time I do it just a little bit longer
Every time I dream, it's just a little bit stronger than
Real Life
And no one said it had to be real
But it's gotta be something you can reach out and feel now
It ain't right
It ain't fair
Castles fall in the sand
And we fade in the air
And the good girls go to Heaven, but the bad girls go everywhere
Ooh now good girls go to Heaven, but the bad girls go everywhere
Sombody told me so
Somebody told me now I know
Every night in my prayers
I'll be praying
That the good girls go to Heaven, but the bad girls go everywhere

BOY: On a hot summer night would you offer your throat to the wolf with the red roses?
GIRL: Will he offer me his mouth?
BOY: Yes
GIRL: Will he offer me his teeth?
BOY: Yes
GIRL: Will he offer me his jaws?
BOY: Yes
GIRL: Will he offer me his hunger?
BOY: Yes
GIRL: Again, will he offer me his hunger?
BOY: Yes!
GIRL: And will he starve without me?
BOY: Yes!
GIRL: And does he love me?
BOY: Yes
GIRL: Yes
BOY: On a hot summer night would you offer your throat to the wolf with the red roses?
GIRL: Yes
BOY: I bet you to say that to all the boys.
It was a hot summer night and the beach was burning
There was fog crawling over the sand
When I listened to your heart I hear the whole world turning
I see the shooting stars
Falling through your trembling hands
You were licking your lips and your lipstick shining
I was dying just to ask for a taste
We were lying together in a silver lining
By the light of the moon
You know there's not another moment
Not another moment
Not another moment to waste
When you hold me so close that my knees grow weak
And my soul is flying high above the ground
I'm trying to speak but no matter what I do
I just can't seem to make any sound
And then you took the words right out of my mouth
Oh it must have been while you were kissing me
You took the words right out of my mouth
And I swear it's true
I was just about to say I love you
And then you took the words right out of my mouth
Oh it must have been while you were kissing me
You took the words right out of my mouth
And I swear it's true
I was just about to say I love you
Now my body is shaking like a wave on the water
And I guess that I'm beginning to grin
Oooh, we're finally alone and we can do what we want to
The night is young
And ain't no one gonna know where you
No one gonna know where you
No one's gonna know where you've been
You were licking your lips and your lipstick shining
I was dying just to ask for a taste
We were lying together in a silver lining
By the light of the moon
You know there's not another moment
Not another moment
Not another moment to waste
And then you took the words right out of my mouth
Oh it must have been while you were kissing me

Every night I grab some money and I go down to the bar
I got my buddies and a beer, I got a dream, I need a car
You got me begging on my knees, c'mon and throw the dog a bone
A man he doesn't live by rock 'n roll and brew alone
Baby baby, baby baby
Chorus: [
Rock 'n roll and brew, rock 'n roll and brew
They don't mean a thing when I compare 'em next to you
Rock 'n roll and brew, rock 'n roll and brew
I know that you and I oh we got better things to do
I don't know who you are or what you do, or where you go when you're not around
I don't know anything about you baby, but you're everything I'm dreaming of
I don't know who you are, but you're a real dead ringer for love
A real dead ringer for love
(girl:) Ever since I can remember you been hanging 'round this joint
You been trying to look away but now you finally got the point
I don't have to know your name and I won't tell you what to do
But a girl - she doesn't live by only rock 'n roll and brew
Baby baby, baby baby - chorus
You got the kind of legs that do more than walk
(girl:) I don't have to listen to your whimpering talk
(boy:) Listen you got the kind of eyes that do more than see
(girl:) You got a lotta nerve to come on to me
(boy:) You got the kind of lips that do more than drink
(girl:) You got the kind of mind that does less than think
But since I'm feeling kinda lonely and my defenses are low
Why don't you give it a shot and get it ready to go
I'm looking for anonymous and fleeting satisfaction
And I want to tell my daddy I'll be missing in action
Ever since I can remember I've been hanging 'round this joint
My daddy never noticed, now he'll finally get the point
(boy:) You got me beggin' on my knees, c'mon and throw the dog a bone
A man he doesn't live by rock 'n roll and brew alone
Baby baby - chorus
Dead ringer for love
Dead ringer for love - dead ringer (repeats 12x)

You sure know what your name is, you sure of where ya live
You know how much you make, ah, ya know how much you give
You know where your house is, you know which road to take
Ah, you're sure 'bout lots of things, look out there's one mistake
Chorus:
There just ain't no doubt, there's just one thing you're never too sure about
Never can be too sure about the girl
Oh, you never can be too sure about the girl
You leave her there, when you get back
She calls ya Bill, when your name is Jack
Never can be too sure about the girl
You know about the truth, you can see it in her eyes
One thing you know about love, it'll cut ya down to size
You hear what they tell you, do you do what you're told
And if they say yes, does it mean it's really so?
(chorus)
You're ready for the thrill tonight, you think you'll take it slow
But she's forgotten more, boy, than you will ever know
(Solo)
She calls you up in the middle of the night, she says she's lonesome and alone
You're all revved up, finally some place to go
You knock on that door - nobody's home
Never can be too sure about the girl
Ooh, you never can be too sure about the girl
You leave her there, when you get back
She calls ya Bill, when your name is Jack
Never can be too sure about the girl
Oh, you never can be too sure about the girl
She'll drive you crazy boy, oh, girl, no no
Never can be too sure about the girl
Never too sure, never too sure, never too sure, never too sure
Never too sure about that girl
No, you never can be too sure about the girl
Oh, you never can be too sure about the girl... (to fade)

Somewhere some girl is crazy, and some boy's half out of his head
Somewhere somebody's fearless and someone won't wind up dead
Somewhere two hearts are pounding, and they don't care what's correct
Somewhere somebody's fallin' in love, without a background check
Son I'm Mr. PC, believe you me, I'm the ultimate king of correct
And if you wanna make it, you gotta make her take it
As a sign a' your deep respect
If you're gonna do it, you gotta see through it
To the heavenly trust that it is
Then you can call her a slut, and you can call her a slave
If you remember to call her MS.
Where the rubber meets the road
Welcome to protection mode
Used to be sex was a fine hello
Now the rubber meets the road
Ya say "girl, you're a beauty", but I'm no beast
I got a little contrcat right here
See, you can slam on the brakes, anytime you got the stick
Even if we're in 4th gear
Cop in the front seat, lawyer in the back seat
Gettin' it on videotape
Got a shrink in the bed, lord, sittin' on the headboard
Swearin' that we both got raped
Where the rubber meets the road
Welcome to protection mode
Used to be sex was a fine hello
Now the rubber meets the road
Where the rubber meets the road
Boy meets girl then watch it explode
Yes means no means yes means no
Where the rubber meets the road!
Somewhere some girl is crazy, and some boy's half out of his head
Somewhere somebody's fearless and someone won't wind up dead
Somewhere two hearts are pounding, and they don't care what's correct
Somewhere somebody's fallin' in love, without a background check
Somewhere somebody's fallin' in love, without a background check
Where the rubber meets the road
Welcome to protection mode
Used to be sex was a fine hello
Now the rubber meets the road
Where the rubber meets the road
Boy meets girl then watch it explode
Yes means no means yes means no
Where the rubber meets the road!
Somewhere some girl is crazy, and some boy's half out of his head
Somewhere there's just a moment, when it all remains unsaid
Somewhere two hearts are pounding, and they don't care what's correct

Wasted youth! Wasted youth!
[spoken]:
I remember everything!
I remember every little thing as if it happened only yesterday
I was barely seventeen, and I once killed a boy with a Fender guitar
I don't remember if it was a telecaster or a stradacaster
But I do remember that it had a heart of chrome and a voice like a horny angel
I don't remember if it was a telecaster or a stratacaster
But I do remember that it wasn't at all easy
It required the perfect combination of the right power chords
And the precise angle from which to strike
The guitar bled for about a week afterward
And the blood was sough dark and rich, like wild berries
The blood of the guitar was Chuck Berry red
The guitar bled for about a week afterward, but it rung out beautifully
And I was able to play notes that I had never even heard before
So I took my guitar, and I smashed it against the wall
I smashed it against the floor
I smashed it against the body of a varsity cheerleader
Smashed it against the hood of a car
Smashed it against a 1981 Harley Davidson
The Harley howled in pain, the guitar howled in heat
And I ran up the stairs to my parents' bedroom
Mummy and daddy were sleeping in the moonlight
Slowly I opened the door, creeping in the shadows
Right upto the foot of their bed
I raised the guitar high above my head
And just as I was about to bring the guitar crashing down
upon the centre of the bed, my father woke up, screaming " Stop!"
"Wait a minute! Stop it boy! What do ya think you're doin'?
That's no way to treat an expensive musical instrument!"
And I said: "God damn it daddy!

Baby we can talk all night
But that ain't gettin us nowhere
I told you everything I possibly can
There's nothing left inside of me
And baby you can cry all night
But that'll never change the way that I feel
The snow is really piling up outside
I wish you wouldn't make me leave here
I poured it on and I poured it out
I tried to show you just how much I care
I'm tired of words and I'm too hoarse to shout
But you've been cold to me so long
I'm crying icicles instead of tears
And all I can do is keep on telling you
I want you, I need you
But there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you
Now don't be sad
'Cause two out of three ain't bad
Now don't be sad
'Cause two out of three ain't bad
You'll never find your gold on a sandy beach
You'll never drill for oil on a city street
I know you're looking for a ruby in a mountain of rocks
But there ain't no Coup de Ville hiding at the bottom
of a Cracker Jack box
I can't lie, I can't tell you that I'm something I'm not
No matter how I try
I'll never be able to give you something
Something that I just haven't got
well there is only one girl that I will ever love
And that was so many years ago
And though I know I'll never get her out of my heart
She never loved me back,ooh I know
I remember how she left me on a stormy night
How she kissed me and got out of our bed
And though I pleaded and I begged her not to walk out that door
She packed her bags and turned right away
And she kept on telling me
She kept on telling me
She kept on telling me
I want you, I need you
But there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you
Now don't be sad
'Cause two out of three ain't bad
I want you, I need you
But there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you
Now don't be sad
'Cause two out of three ain't bad
Baby we can talk all night

Ooh, come a little closer it's a feeling that I can't deny
I was weak, but I never thought I'd speak about the darker side
Ooh, is that a tent? I could repent upon the side of the road
Oh, but I kept on going yeah I headed for another load
I get up from the ground in the middle of the morning
Up from the ground in the middle of the evening
Up from the ground in the middle of the night
Ohh, I testify
I was laid upon the grave by a preacher's hand I cannot lie
And, I forsake the many vows I made to be with you tonight
Oh, could you be the salvation 'cause I never felt like this before
And, could you lend me your hand, because I'm falling back on the floor
I get up from the ground in the middle of the morning
Up from the ground in the middle of the evening
Up from the ground in the middle of the night
Ohh, I testify
I get up from the ground in the middle of the morning
Up from the ground in the middle of the evening
Up from the ground in the middle of the night
Ohh, I testify
On a road outside of nowhere, in the middle of the night
Well I guess I hit rock bottom and the dawn was not in sight
And a tempest made of fire, onset the sky aglow
And a sweet young thing called out my name
And this is how it goes
She says
Go boy, can you hear them?
Are you falling through the cracks in your eyes?
Go boy, can you hear them?
Are you falling through the cracks in your eyes?
Go boy, can you hear them?
Are you falling through the cracks in your eyes?
Go boy, can you hear them?
Are you falling through the cracks in your eyes?
Go boy, can you hear them?
Are you falling through the cracks in your eyes?
I get up from the ground in the middle of the morning
Up from the ground in the middle of the evening
Up from the ground and I'm falling back down
Up from the ground and I testify
Up from the ground in the middle of the morning
Up from the ground in the middle of the evening
Up from the ground and I'm falling back down
Up from the ground and I testify
Ohh, every cut that heals reveals a scar that you can never hope to hide
Oh, and all the pain that you restrain keeps on building up deep inside
Ooh, you think you're above it then it's you my friend that I implore
You've got to walk before you run, see the night before dawn
Before you pull yourself off the floor
I get up from the ground in the middle of the morning
Up from the ground in the middle of the evening
Up from the ground in the middle of the night
Ohh, I testify
Up from the ground, yeah
I testify
Up from the ground in the middle of the morning
Up from the ground in the middle of the evening
Up from the ground and I'm falling back down
Up from the ground and I testify
Up from the ground in the middle of the morning
Up from the ground in the middle of the evening
Up from the ground in the middle of the night
Ohh, I testify
Up from the ground in the middle of the morning
Up from the ground in the middle of the evening
Up from the ground in the middle of the night
Ohh, I testify
Up from the ground in the middle of the morning
Up from the ground in the middle of the evening
Up from the ground in the middle of the night

I ain't livin' here no more, I ain't even keepin' score
It's too late to change, it's over, I'm drownin' in a sea of tears
Nothin' I can say to you makes any difference
There ain't nothin' I can do, none of it's makin' sense
Chorus:
Standing on the outside - I'm lookin' in at you - standing on the outside
Standing on the outside - I'm running out of time - standing on the outside
I'm so tired of bein' alone in a world that feels so cold
There's got to be a light that I can find
There's got to be a soul somewhere that shines for me
Now I don't want to live without love anymore, I just wanna live my life
Love's gonna open up the door, show me it's light again
(chorus)
(Solo)
Nothin' I can say to you makes any difference
There ain't nothin' I can do, none of it's makin' sense
Standing on the outside - I'm lookin' in at you - standing on the outside
Standing on the outside - what can I do - standing on the outside
Standing on the outside - I'm lookin' in at you
Standing on the outside - yes I'm lookin' in at you
Standing on the outside - I'm lookin' in at you... (to fade)

Long distance callin' in the middle of a rainy night
So much static, hardly knew your voice
An' you've been cryin', want me to love you like I did before
Girl when it comes to you, you know I've got no choice
You put a storm inside me, I wanna head for a safer harbor
They all tell me I should give you up, but no man coulda tried any harder
Feels like an odyssey that's never gonna reach an end
Every time I hear you callin' me, just wanna feel you in my arms again
Chorus:
Like a sailor to a siren, like a moth to a flame
I know your love might be the death for me, but I run to you just the same
Like a sailor to a siren, nothing's gonna keep us apart
Crashin' over the wreckage of all the sailor's broken hearts
Musta met you when we were livin' in another time
Had nothin' but the jealous gods to point our way
When men were sailors and a woman was a rocky shore
Wailin' like a siren leadin' him astray
I got another woman and I know you got another man
They all tell me I should give you up, but I don't think that any mortal can
Feels like an odyssey that's never gonna reach an end
Every time I hear you callin' to me, just wanna feel you in my arms again
(chorus)
Gonna abandon ship, steal you from the cliff
Take you to a place where the gods can't find us no more
Let the sailors listen to the sirens if they dare
Gonna be dancin' on the water, drownin' in your yellow hair
(Solo)
(chorus repeats out)

Mader than a mad man and bored to the core
Minute hand crawling can't take it anymore
Future's up the highway ya gotta get away
Gonna take a little trip and find a Tijuana stray
Got the time to take it
Got the balls to break it
Gotta car that'll make it
South of the border, don't drink the water
Gonna have a good time tonight
Crazy from the heat and runnin' for the red light
Oh Senorita, have two tequila
Heat seeker, Lord the will is gettin' weaker
Gonna have a good time tonight
Burnin' with the fever and runnin' for the red light
She ain't a teacher, she ain't a preacher
Just so close to holy that you're runnin' just to reach her
Time bomb is tickin', my heads about to bust
Need your personal attention or I swear I'm gonna rust
Find a little place no one will tell you what to do
Tell her I'm a rebel, she says "Yea, without a clue"
Just need some understanding a girl who ain't demanding
Who ain't afraid to fake it, leave you breathless
She's one of a kind
Gonna have a good time tonight
Crazy from the heat and runnin' for the red light
Oh Senorita, have three tequila
Love seeker, Lord the will is gettin' weaker
Gonna have a good time tonight
Burnin' with the fever and runnin' for the red light
She ain't a teacher, she ain't a preacher
Just so close to holy that you gotta run to reach her
Need some understanding, a girl who ain't demanding
A little bad behavior, she's gonna be my savior
My knees are shakin', my back is breakin'
Oh Mama Mia, a Senorita
Gonna have a good time tonight
Crazy from the heat and runnin' for the red light
Oh Senorita, have two tequila
Heat seeker, Lord the will is gettin' weaker
Gonna have a good time tonight
Burnin' with the fever and runnin' for the red light
She ain't a teacher, she ain't a preacher
Just so close to holy that you're runnin' just to reach her
Gonna have a good time tonight
Crazy from the heat and runnin' for the red light
Oh Senorita, have some tequila
Need sneakers, Lord the will is gettin' weaker
Gonna have a good time tonight
Burnin' with the fever and runnin' for the red light
Just heard the bell, that got me outta hell

You can't run away forever
But there's nothing wrong with getting a good head start
You want to shut out the night, you want to shut down the sun
You want to shut away the pieces of a broken heart
Think of how we'd lay down together
We'd be listening to the radio so loud and so strong
Every golden nugget coming like a gift of the gods
Someone must have blessed us when he gave us those songs
[1]:
I treasure your love, I never want to lose it
You've been through the fires of hell
And I know you've got the ashes to prove it
I treasure your love, I want to show you how to use it
You've been through a lot of pain in the dirt
And I know you've got the scars to prove it
Remember everything that I told you, and I'm telling you again that it's
true
When you're alone and afraid, and you're completely amazed
To find there's nothing anybody can do
Keep on believing, and you'll discover baby
Chorus:
There's always something magic, there's always something new
And when you really really need it the most
That's when rock and roll dreams come through
The beat is yours forever, the beat is always true
And when you really really need it the most
That's when rock and roll dreams come through for you
(Solo)
Once upon a time was a backbeat, once upon a time all the chords cameto
life
And the angels had guitars even before they had wings
If you hold onto a chorus you can get through the night
Remember everything that I told you, and I'm telling you again that it's
true
You're never alone cause you can put on the phones
And let the drummer tell your heart what to do
Keep on believing, and you'll discover baby
chorus

Never callin', unanswered letters, how you been, feelin' better?
Never lookin', but you're hearin', never speakin', but you're feeling
All the silence, and it's wounding, you're not healing, just concealing
Play the game, play the game
Chorus:
Oh brother to brother, all the blood runs red
Don't roll over, don't play dead
We're all livin' on the razor's edge
Oh brother to brother, all the blood runs ruby red
We're all victims of the razor's edge
All the rules don't mean a thing, they're wasting time, the mem'ries sting
Keep your image, plant that smile, answer questions, don't let on
Make up stories all put on, that's your life, oh, your life is gone
(chorus)
You see you're losing, yet you still try
The game just a'watches your life go by
You're playin' well, you're playin' - why? Oh, play the game
(Solo)
You see you're losing, yet you still try
The game just a'watches your life go by
You're playin' well, oh you're playin' the game
(chorus)

It's a bent town burnt bloodhound saturday night
Under the crimson cut throat canyon sky
oh the city's on fire but the hills are alive
With the sound of this night oh yeah
And baby leans close and she whispers you don't care
She wraps her legs round my waist
Runs her finger through my hair
She rest her head on the soft valance
Feel the world rushing under the sky
To hear the cold hard waves explode over and by her
Now the only thing that matters
Is this leather cutting through this California wind
She said take me anywhere
She said take me everywhere
Everybody's got someone they don't wanna be
I don't wanna be you
You don't wanna be me
Everybody's got a plan
Everybody's got a dream
I ain't got nothing
I just wanna be free
In mostrix boots and his time
Maybe i'll take you right outta here
Maybe i'll take you right outta here
I'm a prizefight lover soul actually
Now the 101 is blacker than a funeral parade
Now i ground the throttle on the scar on the interstate
Ya see the funny thing about leaving town
You leave with something you think you can't live
without
Now we're heading north. but she's looking south
She whispered one last request
Apolgised to the desert wind
She said i'll never look back again
She said i'll never look back again
Everybody's got someone they don't wanna be
I don't wanna be you
I don't wanna be me
Everybody's got a plan
Everybody's got a dream
I ain't got nothing
I just wanna be free
In mostrix mind and his boots and his time
Maybe i'll take you right outta here
Maybe i'll take you right outta here
I'm a prizefight lover soul that you need
I got you right here tucked behind my ear
Whisper all your fears and your dreams to me
I can feel ya heat I can feel your scars so speak
With the longing and the nerving and it's depth and
it's need
The night is alive
This monsters the night
Running shotgun tonight on your conscience
I gotta keen promonition a wild proposition
Let the smouldering hunger in you explode
She ripped the night from the scene with a fugitive
scream
And her chips are grey
She said take me anywhere
She said take me everywhere
Everybody's got someone they don't wanna be
I don't wanna be you
You don't wanna be me
Everybody's got a plan
Everybody's got a dream
I ain't got nothing
I just wanna be free
In mostrix mind and his boots and his time
Maybe i'll take you right outta here
Maybe i'll take you right outta here
Maybe i'll take you right outta here
I'm a prizefight lover soul
I'm a prizefight lover soul
I'm a prizefight lover soul actually
some of these lyrics maynot be correct if not please

You like ridin' around with your big brother, in your uncle's custom van
You wanna bleach your hair so bad, but your mama don't understand
Hangin' around by the monument, dancin' to the radio
You got a memory even shorter than your dress
But there's nothin' that you don't know
Chorus:
Priscilla, Priscilla, nearly sixteen but they treat you like a kid
Priscilla, Priscilla, they're gonna kill ya for what you did
Cuttin' class with a backstage pass, and always skippin' lunch
Ya put your hand on the knees of the boys, and daddy's vodka in the punch
Learned how to jump start your grandma's car, how to French inhale your Kools
And now you know that breakin' hearts is easy as breakin' the rules
(chorus)
You don't remember no revolution, you don't belong to no baby boom
Just you and your headphones, dreamin' in your pink bedroom
(Solo)
Strong girls break the records, and rich girls break their nails
Smart girls always know by heart, what some girls always fail
Bad little girls grow up to be good, and good girls finish last
But crazy girls don't care how they grow up, as long as they grow up fast
(chorus repeats out...)

Every day of my life they say the same old thing
Hey boy! Oh boy, you better wait for your turn
And every day of my life I get the same old line
Hey boy! Oh boy, when are you going to learn
I wanna go on the red, I wanna go on the green
I wanna go on all colors that I see in between
I wanna run all the tolls, I wanna run all the signs
I wanna run all the way across a double white line
But every day of my life I see the same old road
Hey girl! Oh girl, we gotta pull up our routes
And every day of my life I see the same old dream
Hey girl! Oh girl, I need a dream I can use
I wanna go on the red, I wanna go on the green
I wanna go on all colors that I see in between
I wanna run all the tolls, I wanna run all the signs
My body is the car and my soul is the ignition
Your love will be the key and we'll jockey for position till we -
Chorus:
Peel out! Peel out! Peel out! We're sick and tired of waiting in line
Peel out! Peel out! Peel out! Nobody's taking our time
Peel out! Peel out! Peel out!
Tire tracks and broken hearts, that's all we're leaving behind
There oughta be a law and there better be a crime
There oughta be a law and there better be a crime
(Instrumental break)
And every night of my life there's something holding me back
Hey girl - what is it boy - oh girl, I know it's time to cut loose
And every night of my life I dream of someone like you
Hey girl - what is it boy - oh girl, you got a dream I can use
Tire tracks and broken hearts, that's all we're leaving behind
My body is the car and my soul is the ignition
Your love will be the key and we'll jockey for position till we -
chorus repeats 3x
Peel out!

Well, goodbye my friend it was good to know you,
I hope you understand,
Twenty-one years and I ain't got nothing,
But sitting, wondering if I can,
Wishing and dreaming, Hoping and reaching,
For things I was never meant to have,
If my foolish life's a product of my gross misconceptions,
Who's gonna give a damn?
I don't want,
Peace on earth,
I just want to go,
I just want to go home.
I know I never was much more than you expected,
I expect I won't disappoint,
But my dreams were not as hollow as the empty world I saw though,
I guess I never did get the point,
Life cannot just be the only option left,
The only thing you can count on in this world in regret.
I don't want,
Peace on earth,
I just want to go,
I just want to go home.
Right world, wrong time
and they say to me, "Hang cool teddy bear"
Best thing to do,
We'll just feed them fear,
Get them thinking about there,
And forgetting about here,
We won't try to fight,
We won't try to win,
When they knock you down
You gotta get back up again
I don't wanna be an end,
For someone else's dirty hand,
To rape the desert of it's sand,
And pluck the fertile, virgin land,
I don't wanna be.
But I'm not so self-righteous to think that I,
Would not take one hundred thousand lives,
To see my mother's eyes,
And trace that southern smile,
I don't wanna die,
I don't wanna die,
I don't want too much more than a working man deserves,
Just a life worth living and a death worth dying for.
I don't want,
Peace on earth,
I just want to go home.
I don't want,
Peace on earth,
I just want to go home.
I just want to go home.
I just want to go home.
I just want to go home.
I don't want,

From the very first moment I saw you
I knew our love would be so strong
And the very first moment I kissed you
I knew our joy would last so long
And then I saw you making love to my best friend
I didn't know whatever to say
I saw you making love to my best friend
So I looked him right in his eyes and I said
Listen boyWon't you take some more it's what you came for
And don't mind me I won't throw you no curves
Have yourself a ball with my good woman
Won't you take some more boy it's more than you deserve
Won't you take some more boy it's more than you deserve
When I saw you hanging round the truck stop
Shining like an angel in the night
And when I saw you crying like a baby
I knew you'd have to be my wife
Then I saw you making love to my best friend
I didn't know whatever to say
I saw you making love to my best friend
So I looked him right in his eyes and I said
Listen boy
Won't you take some more it's what you came for
And don't mind me I won't throw you no curves
Have yourself a ball with my good woman
Won't you take some more boy it's more than you deserve
Won't you take some more boy it's more than you deserve
Now I think I'm gonna have to leave you
Because I'm feeling much too weak to share
And the pie, oh it's cut in too many pieces
The flavour that I crave is no longer there
Then I saw you making love to two of my best friends
I didn't know whatever to say
I saw you making love to a group of my best friends
So I looked them right in their eyes and I said
Listen here group
Won't you take some more it's what you came for
And don't mind me I won't throw you no curves
Have yourself a ball with my good woman
Won't you take some more boy it's more than you deserve
Won't you take some more boy it's more than you deserve

Once a beautiful Miss America married Mr. Right
Had a little baby girl born on a stormy night.
But that was once upon a time
now it's a brand new world.
Gimme the future

Somewhere just between the past and somethin' dawnin' new
There's a break in the chain
a skip in the clock
Girl
that's where I'm gonna find you.
Between the boy I was before and what I'm gonna be
There's a clash on the border
a flame in the sky
Girl
that's where you're gonna find me.
Can't you hear the planet groanin' like a broken down machine
Rusted with the guilty tears of fallen kings and queens.
But you and I stand innocent
baby

Gimme the future

Hey Ricky, now mine is empty, how about one for you
We could sell it out together, seems tomorrow's overdue
Captain Video, done went home, one pilot laid to rest
And dragon ladies now talk that talk, about who loves who, who loves best
Silver bullets in the jukebox, spin another round
Everybody at the back of the line, it's midnight at the lost and found
Chorus:
Midnight at the lost and found, lost souls in the hunting ground
A remedy for all your ills, at the lost and found
Midnight at the lost and found, midnight
Have a double, it's gettin' late, you'll get home, just rely on fate
Place just finally came alive, good old boys just arrived
Stools keep changin' faces, and the night just slips away
And like a long distance love affair, soon you've got to pay
Silver bullets in the jukebox, spin another round
Everybody at the back of the line, it's midnight at the lost and found
(chorus)
Hangin' on barely, hitch a ride away
Belly up and bury, boy, all the hurt you feel today
(Solo)
Hangin' on barely, hitch a ride away
Belly up and bury, boy, all the hurt you feel today
Silver bullets in the jukebox, spin another round
Everybody get back in line, last call for the lost and found
(chorus repeats out...)

I've got steel on my fingers, granite on my breath
A bottle in one ear and a spike in my chest
A nickel in my boot and my finger in a damn
I hang out with a bunch of losers I call my friends, and we sing
oooh
oooh
oooh
oooh
But I'm headin' out today, I'm goin' down Elijah's way
Spinnin' wheels on fire, with my speed needle between my jeans
So darlin', show my what you're hiding behind that ring
Behind your pink silhouette, young lust balcony
C'mon baby, just ride with me
C'mon baby, just ride with me
C'mon baby, just ride with me
We got two-thousand miles between here and home
They won't even know we're gone
I got mama's smile and my daddy's gun
You got your honest face and your liar's tongue
Until Armageddon takes me
It's just you and my baby
Running like the only sinners left
Loving like the only sinners left
Livin' like the only sinners left alive
Livin' on the outside
I got one shot to steal this world
If you wanna go with me you can be my girl
Here's a bullet for your thoughts and a penny for the train
Next time I'm here they'll be diggin' my grave
C'mon baby, just ride with me
C'mon baby, just ride with me
We got two-thousand miles between here and home
They won't even know we're gone
I got mama's smile and my daddy's gun
You got your honest face and your liar's tongue
Until Armageddon takes me
It's just you and my baby
Running like the only sinners left
Loving like the only sinners left
Livin' like the only sinners left alive
Livin' on the outside
Livin' on the outside (hey hey hey)
Livin' on the outside (oh, yeah yeah, livin')
Livin' on the outside (yeah yeah yeah yeah, ooh)
Livin' on the outside (oh yeah, oh yeah, oh hey)
Well, if I gotta go, I'm going in style
You're gonna find me running down that Calvary mile
A beggar's son on the potter's tree
C'mon, baby just ride with me
C'mon, baby just ride with me
C'mon, baby just ride with me
Come on!
Come on! …
We got two-thousand miles between here and home
They won't even know we're gone
I got my mama's smile and my daddy's gun
Bring your honest face and your liar's tongue
Until Armageddon takes me
It's just you and my baby
Runnin' like the only sinners left
Livin' like the only sinners left
Lovin' like the only sinners left alive

You better pray she took her morning medication
Or you might have to pick her up at the police station
Coz if there's trouble in this town, you know she's gonna find it
She's like the devil in a short skirt but I don't mind it
Everybody thinks I'm crazy, but they don't even know
She's kinda like a rose
She'll cut you on the your thumb
She'll kick you when you're low
And fuck you when she's done
The bitch is like a rose
And let me tell you son
That every time you think you've got control
Sh-sh-she got it
Maybe I'm a victim of infatuation
You know that hot-blooded girl's got my inspiration
Yeah it doesn't really matter that she isn't 21
Coz she's always backstage when the band gets done
Everybody thinks I'm crazy, but they don't even know
She's kinda like a rose
She'll cut you on the your thumb
She'll kick you when you're low
And fuck you when she's done
The bitch is like a rose
And let me tell you son
That every time you think you've got control
Sh-sh-she got it
She got jagged edges and a dirty mouth
(What a lady)
She got everything that I don't wanna live without
She's kinda like a rose
She's kinda like a rose
She's kinda like a rose
And you might wanna run
Coz even when she's cold
She's burnin like the sun
The bitch is like a rose
And smokin like a gun
Don't care if you don't like her
I love her
I love her
She's kinda like a rose
She's kinda like a rose
She'll cut you on the your thumb
She'll kick you when you're low
And fuck you when she's done
The bitch is like a rose
And let me tell you son
That every time you think you've got control
Every time you think you've got control

It's all or nothing,
and nothing's all I ever get
Everytime I turn it on,
I burn it up and burn it out
It's always something,
there's always something going wrong
That's the only guarantee,
that's what this is all about
It's a never ending attack,
everything's a lie and that's a fact
Life is a lemon and I want my money back
And all the morons and all the stooges with their coins
They're the ones who make the rules,
it's not a game,
it's just a rout
There's desperation,
there's desperation in the air
It leaves a stain on all your clothes and
no detergent gets it out
And we're always slipping thru the cracks
Then the movie's over, fade to black
Life is a lemon and I want my money back
What about love?
It's defective - it's always breaking in half
What about sex?
It's defective - it's never built to really last
What about your family?
It's defective - all the batteries are shot
What about your friends?
They're defective - all the parts are out of stock
What about hope?
It's defective - it's corroded and decayed
What about faith?
It's defective - it's tattered and it's frayed
What about your Gods?
They're defective - They forgot the warranty
What about your town?
It's defective - it's a dead end street to me
What about your school?
It's defective - it's a pack of useless lies
What about your work?
It's defective - it's a crock and then you die
What about your childhood?
It's defective - it's dead and buried in the past
What about your future?
It's defective - and you can shove it up your ass!
I want my money back - life is a lemon
I want my money back - life is a lemon, life is a lemon
It's all or nothing, and nothing's all I ever get
Everytime I turn it on, I burn it up and burn it out
It's a never ending attack, everything's a lie and that's a fact
Life is a lemon and I want my money back
And we're always slipping thru the cracks
Then the movie's over, fade to black
Life is a lemon and I want my money back
Back, back, back, back!
I want my money back,

There were nights when the wind was so cold
That my body froze in bed if I just listened
To it right outside the window
There were days when the sun was so cruel
That all the tears turned to dust and
I just knew my eyes were drying up forever
I finished crying in the instant that you left
And I can't remember where or when or how
And I banished every memory you and I have ever made
But when you touch me like this
(Touch me like this)
And you hold me like that
(Hold me like that)
I just have to admit
That it's all coming back to me
When I touch you like this
(Touch you like this)
And I hold you like that
(Hold you like that)
It's so hard to believe
But it's all coming back to me now
It's all coming back
It's all coming back to me now
There were moments of gold and there were flashes of light
There were things I'd never do again
But then they'd always seemed right
There were nights of endless pleasure
It was more than any laws allow, maybe baby
If I kiss you like this
(Kiss you like this)
And if you whisper like that
(Whisper like that)
It was lost long ago
But it's all coming back to me
If you want me like this
(If you want me like this)
And if you need me like that
(If you need me like that)
It was dead long ago
But it's all coming back to me
It's so hard to resist
And it's all coming back to me
I can barely recall
But it's all coming back to me now
But you were history with the slamming of the door
And I made myself so strong again somehow
And I never wasted any of my time on you since then
But if I touch you like this
(Touch you like this)
And if you kiss me like that
(Kiss me like that)
It was so long ago
But it's all coming back to me
If you touch me like this
(Touch me like this)
And if I kiss you like that
(Kiss you like that)
It was gone with the wind
But it's all coming back to me now
It's all coming back
It's all coming back to me now
There were moments of gold and there were flashes of light
There were things we'd never do again
But then they'd always seemed right
There were nights of endless pleasure
It was more than all your laws allow, baby, baby, baby
When you touch me like this
(Touch me like this)
And when you hold me like that
(Hold me like that)
It was gone with the wind
But it's all coming back to me
When you see me like this
(See me like this)
And when I see you like that
(See you like that)
Then we see what we want to see
All coming back to me
The flesh and the fantasies
All coming back to me
I can barley recall
But it's all coming back to me now
If you forgive me all this
(Forgive me all this)
If I forgive you all that
(Forgive you all that)
We forgive and forget
And it's all coming back to me now
It's all coming back to me now
(When I touch you like this)
It's all coming back to me now
(And if you do it like this)
It's all coming back to me now

And I never really sleep anymore
And I always get those dangerous dreams
And I never get a minute of peace
And I gotta wonder what it means
Maybe it's nothing and I'm under the weather
Maybe it's just one of those bugs going round
Maybe I'm under a spell and it's magic
Maybe there's a witch doctor with an office in town
Oh is this a blessing or is it a curse?
Does it get any better? Can it get any worse?
Will it go on forever or is it over tonight?
Does it come with the darkness? Does it bring out the light?
Is it richer than diamonds or just a little cheaper than spit?
(I don't know what it is)
I don't know what it is but it just won't quit
And there used to be such an easy way of living
And there used to be every hope in the world
And I used to get everything that I went after
But there never used to be this girl, but there never used to be this girl
Maybe I'm crazy and I'm losing my senses
Maybe I'm possessed by a spirit or such
Maybe I'm desperate and I've got no defenses
Can you get me a prescription for that one perfect touch?
Oh is this a blessing or is it a curse?
Does it get any better? Can it get any worse?
Will it go on forever or is it over tonight?
Does it come with the darkness? Does it bring out the light?
It's a stairway to heaven or a subway going down to the pits
(Is it some kind of love?)
I don't know what it is but it just won't quit
There was a time when nothing ever really mattered
There was a time when there was nothing I didn't know
There was a time when I knew just what I was living for
There was a time and the time was so long ago
There was a time and the time was so long ago...

I know you're goin', I know this is good-bye
And I can't make you stay, no matter how I try
But ooh if you're leaving, please grant this one request
And leave my heart with some happiness
If this is the last kiss, let's make it last all night
If this is the last time I'm ever, ever gonna hold you
Let me hold you tight till the morning light
If this is the last time, ooh we'll ever be together
Kiss me and baby give me something
Tender to remember you by
If I can't be with you, oh baby all my life
The next best thing is you next to me all through the night
Pull all the shades down, put your heart next to mine
Tonight give me a chance to feel heaven just one more time
And ooh if you're leaving, honey I'll set you free
Just leave my arms this one sweet memory
If this is the last kiss, let's make it last all night
If this is the last time I'm ever, ever gonna hold you
Let me hold you tight till the morning light
If this is the last time, ooh we'll ever be together
Kiss me and baby give me something
Tender to remember you by
If I can't be with you, oh baby all my life
The next best thing is you next to me all through the night
If this is the last kiss, let's make it last all night
If this is the last time I'm ever, ever gonna hold you
Let me hold you tight till the morning light
If this is the last time, ooh we'll ever be together
Kiss me and baby give me something
Tender to remember you by
Kiss me and baby give me something
Tender to remember you by
Baby give me something

Well I'm looking at the man in the broken glass
There's a crack where his heart was beating last
Oh I can tell he's been through hell
I say never stop dreaming
Oh yesterday's gone
Tomorrow is the day
Oh we're not dying
We're just paving the way
For the lovers, the dreamers
The kids who say
Never stop living
Oh never stop living
Cause if it rains it rains
We'll be in the street looking thunder in the face
Singing na na na na na
I won't change
Cause if it rains it rains
Oh like water in your lungs
They try to shut you down
Take your good ideas
And your shout out louds
But they don't know
The movement's growing
We'll never stop breathing
Oh never before and never again
Will there be a moment like this my friend
To make a change
Stand up and say
Never stop living
No never stop living
Cause if it rains it rains
We'll be in the street looking thunder in the face
Singing na na na na na
I won't change
Cause if it rains it rains
Cause if it rains it rains
We'll be in the street looking thunder in the face
Singing na na na na na
I won't change
Cause if it rains it rains
If it rains it rains
We'll be in the street looking thunder in the face
Singing nan na na na na
I won't change
Cause if it rains it rains
Oh if it rains it rains
Oh no now

>From the minute I turned and laid my eyes on you, I had no eyes of my own
I was blind to the world, you were too good to be true
But you were something to see, so very young and alone
And I still don't believe the way you turned on me
Now where's the girl that I knew?
I gave you somewhere to live and then somebody to love
You gave me nothing but trouble, man, I've been such a fool
You gave me nothing at all, now let me give it to you
You taught me how to be cruel, now let me try it on you
How do you abuse me, let me count the ways
How many hours in how many days
How does it amuse you, let me count the pain
How many rules breaking how many games
Chorus: [
How do you abuse me, let me count the ways
How many hours in how many days
How does it amuse you, let me count the pain
How many rules breaking how many games
You got your ass out of gear and your soul out of whack
Go on and take all your stuff, don't even bother to pack
In every way I want you out of my life
But I'll kill you if you don't come back, I'll kill you if you don't come back
In the pit of the night you used to pull me so close
And then you'd hold me so tight
And in the wink of an eye you used to give me it all
And with a kiss in the darkness you'd deliver the light
And in the pit of the night I hear you laughing so loud
I know you're laughing at me
Oh ain't it funny and sad the way I fell for your lies
The way I fell into love and then I begged to be free
You gave me nothing at all, now let me give it to you
You taught me how to be cruel, now let me try it on you
chorus
Somebody bless all the girls in the sand on the beach
They're dreamin' of boys and staying just out of reach
Bless all the cheerleaders down on the track
They're glistening like diamonds with sweat on their backs
Bless all the girls in the gangs on the street
They're looking for danger and they're holding their piece
Bless all the girls staying late after school
They're playing with fire and oh they're playing it cool
And bless all the shy girls who're learning to dance
They stare in the mirror and they conjure romance
Bless all the girls who are always alone
They kneel down in prayer and they wait up by the phone
Bless all the homecoming queens of the night
They're looking for magic in gymnasium lights
And bless all the girls who know what love is about
They try not to cry and then they try to put out
And bless all the homecoming queens of the night
They're looking for magic in gymnasium lights
And bless all the girls who know what love is about
They try not to cry and then they try to put out
Somebody bless all these girls that I never have met
But damn you and curse you after all that you've done
You're the one girl I'll never forget
You're the one girl I'll never forget
Somebody bless all these girls and everything that they do
But damn me and curse me for still needing you
And I'll kill you if you don't come back
I'll kill you if you don't come back (repeats out)

And I would do anything for love,
I'd run right into hell and back,
I would do anything for love,
I'll never lie to you and that's a fact.
But I'll never forget the way you feel right now
- Oh no - no way - I would do anything for love,
But I wont do that, I wont do that, anything for love,
I would do anything for love, I would do anything for love,
But I wont do that, I wont do that.
Some days it don't come easy,
Some days it don't come hard
Some days it don't come at all,
And these are the days that never end.
Some nights you breath fire,
Some nights your carved in ice,
Some nights your like nothing I've ever seen before, Or will again.
Maybe I'm crazy, But it's crazy and it's true,
I know you can save me, No one else can save me now but you.
As long as the planets are turning,
As long as the stars are burning,
As long as your dreams are coming true - You better believe it! -
That I would do anything for love,
And I'll be there until the final act -
I would do anything for love!
And I'll take a Vow and Seal a pact -
But I'll never forgive myself if we don't go all the way - Tonight -
I would do anything for love!
I would do anything for love,
I would do anything for love,
But I wont do that, I wont do that...
I would do anything for love,
Anything you've been dreaming of,
But I just wont do that...
Some days I pray for Silence,
Some days I pray for Soul,
Some days I just pray to the God of Sex and Drums and Rock 'N' Roll.
Some nights I lose the feeling,
Some nights I lose control,
Some nights I just lose it all when I watch you dance and the thunder rolls.
Maybe I'm lonely, And that's all I'm qualified to be,
There's just one and only, The one and only promise I can keep.
As long as the wheels are turning,
As long as the fires are burning,
As long as your prayers are coming true - You better believe it - !
That I would do anything for love!
And you know it's true and that's a fact,
I would do anything for love!
And there'll never be no turning back -
But I'll never do it better than I do it with you,
So long - So long - I would do anything for love,
I would do anything for love,
I would do anything for love,
I would do anything for love,
But I wont do that, I wont do that!
I would do anything for love,
Anything you've been dreaming of,
But I just wont do that...
But I'll never stop dreaming of you
Everynight of my life - No Way -
I would do anything for love,
I would do anything for love,
I would do anything for love,
But I wont do that, I wont do that!
Girl : Will you raise me up?
Will you help me down?
Will you help get me right out of this Godforsaken town?
Will you make it a little less cold?
Boy : I can do that!
I can do that!
Girl : Will you hold me sacred?
will you hold me tight?
Can you colorize my life I'm so sick of black and white?
Can you make it a little less old?
Boy : I can do that!
I can do that!
Girl : Will you make me some magic, with your own two hands?
Can you build an Emerald city with these grains of sand?
Can you give me something that I can take home?
Boy : I can do that!
I can do that!
Girl : Will you cater to every fantasy that I've got?
Will ya hose me down with holy water - if I get too hot - ?
Will you take me to places that I've never known?
Boy : I can do that!
I can do that!
Girl : After a while you'll forget everything,
It was a brief interlude, And a midsummer night's fling,
And you'll see that it's time to move on.
Boy : I wont do that!
I wont do that!
Girl : I know the territory - I've been around,
It'll all turn to dust and we'll all fall down,
And sooner or later you'll be screwing around.
Boy : I wont do that!
I wont do that!
Anything for love, I would do anything for love,
I would do anything for love,

Boy:
I could stay awake just to hear you breathing,
Watch you smile while you are sleeping,
While you're far away and dreaming,
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender,
I could stay lost in this moment forever,
When every moment spent with you is a moment I treasure,
Boy (with the vocalizing choir):
I don't wanna close my eyes,
I don't wanna fall asleep,
'Cause I'd miss you babe,
And I don't wanna miss a thing,
'Cause even when I dream of you,
The sweetest dream would never do,
I'd still miss you babe,
And I don't wanna miss a thing.
Boy:
Lying close to you,
feeling your heart beating,
And I'm wondering what you're dreaming,
Wondering if it's me you're seeing,
And then I kiss your eyes,
And thank God we're together,
I just wanna stay with you in this moment forever,
Boy (with the vocalizing choir):
I don't wanna close my eyes,
I don't wanna fall asleep,
Cause I'd miss you babe,
And I don't wanna miss a thing,
'Cause even when I dream of you,
The sweetest dream would never do,
I'd still miss you babe,
And I don't wanna miss a thing.
Boy:
And I don't wanna miss one smile,
I don't wanna miss one kiss,
I just wanna be with you,
Right here with you, just like this,
Well I just wanna hold you close,
And feel your heart so close to mine,
And just stay here in this moment,
For all the rest of time
The vocalizing choir:
I don't wanna close my eyes,
I don't wanna fall asleep,
'Cause I'd miss you babe,
And I don't wanna miss a thing,
Boy (with the vocalizing choir):
'Cause even when I dream of you,
The sweetest dream would never do,
I'd still miss you babe,
And I don't wanna miss a thing.

The sweetest dream would never do,
I'd still miss you babe,

The locusts are singing.The Sun is red - It's gotten so late somehow.
There's gonna be trouble. You know what they said.
We should have been home by now. We should have been home by now.
The thunder is rolling. The sky is black.
It's gotten so dark somehow.There's gonna be danger.
God I wish we were back. We should have been home by now. We should have been home by now.
No matter what they tell us. No matter what they do. No matter what they teach us.
What we believe is true. No matter what they call us.
However they attack. No matter where they take us.
We'll find our own way back. I can't deny what I believe.
I can't be what I'm not. I know I'll love forever.
I know - No matter what. If only tears were laughter.If only night was day. If only prayers were answered.
Then we would hear God say:. No matter what they tell you. No matter what they do. No matter what they teach you. What you believe is true. And I will keep you safe and strong. And sheltered from the storm. No matter where it's barren. A dream is being born. No matter who they follow. No matter where they lead. No matter how they judge us. I'll be everyone you need. No matter if the sun don't shine. Or if the skies are blue. No matter what the ending. My life began with you.
I can't deny what I believe. I can't be what I'm not.I know this love's forever. I know. No matter

Heaven can wait
And a band of angels wrapped up in my heart
Will take me through the lonely night
Through the cold of the day
And I know
I know
Heaven can wait
And all the gods come down here just to sing for me
And the melody's gonna make me fly
Without pain
Without fear
Give me all of your dreams
And let me go along on your way
Give me all of your prayers to sing
And i'll turn the night into the skylight of day
I got a taste of paradise
I'm never gonna let it slip away
I got a taste of paradise
It's all I really need to make me stay --
Just like a child again
Heaven can wait
And all I got is time until the end of time
I won't look back
I won't look back
Let the altars shine
And I know that I've been released
But I don't know to where
And nobody's gonna tell me know
And I don't really care
No no no
I got a taste of paradise
That's all i really need to make me stay
I got a taste of paradise
If I had it any sooner you know
You know I never would have run away from my home
Heaven can wait
And all I got is time until the end of time
I won't look back
I won't look back
Let the altars shine
Heaven can wait
Heaven can wait
I won't look back
I won't look back
Let the altars shine

Not a dry eye in the house
After love's curtain comes down
Listen an you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking...
I can still see you standin'there
Midnight wind blowin'through your hair remember
Kisses sweet in the salty air
When love was forever
Turn the page and we fade to blue
The scene hat changed now I'm without you well you just
Walked away when the act was through
And the dream was over
It was almost like a movie
the way you said good-bye
You must have spent a lot of time rehearsing each and every line
Now there's not a dry eye in the house
After love's curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking - breaking
Not a smile left on my face
The ending's just too sad ta takeAnd there's not a dry eye
Not a dry eye in the house...
The greatest story was you and me
We had it all we had everything, but now the
Story's done it's just history
The last act is over
Your every line hat the sweetest sound
Your every touch turned my world around
But then the light came up and my world crashed down
End of show
It's over....
It was almost like a movie
Those nights we touched the stars
Time stood still for you and I
Now it's sad enough to make you cry ...
And there's not a dry eye in the house
After love's curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking - breaking
Not a smile left on my face
The ending's just too sad to takeAnd there's not adry eye
Not a dry eye in the house
... Act one - the story's just begun
Act two - I fell in love with you
Act three - knew it was meant to be
Act four - you don't love me no more...
Not a dry eye in the house
After love's curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking - breaking
Not a smile left on my face
The ending's just too sad to takeAnd there's not a dry eye
Not a dry eye
Not a dry eye in the house
After love's curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking - breaking
Not a dry eye in the house
Not a dry eye in the house

Good girls go to heaven
Good girls go to heaven
Good girls go to heaven
(But the bad girls go everywhere)
Good girls go to heaven
(Everybody go to heaven)
Good girls go to heaven
(But the bad girls go everywhere)
When the wind is howling through your window pane
It's not the only pain of the night
You're burning up in your bed you got a fever of love
And there's not an anti-body in sight
Hey Jenny Jenny why are you crying?
There's a beauty of a moon in the sky
But I guess when you've been leading such a sheltered life
You never lift your head and look so high
You don't have a lot but it's all that you've got
And you can turn it into more than it seems
Just give it a shot, fantasize every movement
And imagine every inch of your dream
No one said it had to be real
But it's gotta be something you can reach out and feel now
It ain't right it ain't fair
Castles fall in the sand and we fade in the air
And the good girls go to heaven
But the bad girls go everywhere
The good girls go to heaven
But the bad girls go everywhere
Somebody told me so
Somebody told me now I know
Every night in my prayer, I'll be praying that the
Good girls go to heaven but the bad girls go everywhere
When the sweat is sizzling on your skin in the dark
And you're desperate now for somewhere to turn
Every muscle in rebellion every nerve is on edge
And every limb has been erotically burned
Hey Johnny Johnny why are you shaking?
When a boy should do whatever he can
You've been nothing but an angel every day of your life
And now you wonder what it's like to be damned
You don't have a lot but it's all that you've got
And you can turn it into more than it seems
Just give it a shot, fantasize every movement
And imagine every inch of your dream
No one said it had to be real
But it's gotta be something you've been wanting to feel now
It ain't right it ain't fair
Castles fall in the sand and we fade in the air
And the good boys go to heaven
But the bad boys go everywhere
Good boys go to heaven
But the bad boys go everywhere
Somebody told me so
Somebody told me now I know
Every night in my prayer, I'll be praying that the
Good boys go to heaven but the bad boys go everywhere
Every time I try and dream you
I can't believe how hard it's been to
Conjure up your face and trace your body in the air
All the seconds go on forever
But the thirds and fourth ones are even better
Every time I do it just a little bit longer
Every time I dream
It's just a little bit stronger than real life
No one said it had to be real
But it's gotta be something you can reach out and feel now
It ain't right it ain't fair
Castles fall in the sand and we fade in the air
And the good girls go to heaven
But the bad girls go everywhere
The good girls go to heaven
But the bad girls go everywhere
Somebody told me so
Somebody told me now I know
Every night in my prayer, I'll be praying that the
Good girls go to heaven but the bad girls go everywhere
Good girls go to heaven, bad girls go everywhere
Good girls go to heaven, bad girls go everywhere
Good girls go to heaven, bad girls go everywhere

I was lost 'til you were found
But I never knew how far down
I was fallin' before I reached the bottom
I was cold and you were fire
And I never knew how the pyre could be burning on the edge
Of the ice field
And the now chilly California wind
Is blowing down our bodies again
And we're sinking deeper and deeper into the
Chilly California sand
Oh I know you belong inside my aching heart
And can't you see my faded Levis bursting apart
And don't you hear me crying oh babe don't go
And don't you hear me screamin' how was I to know
I'm in the middle of nowhere
Near the end of the line
But there's a border to somewhere waiting
And there's a tankful of time
Oh give me just another moment
To see the light of the day
And take me to another land where I won't have to stay
And I'm gonna need somebosy to make me feel like you do
And I will receive somebosy with open arms open eyes
Open up the sky and let the planet that I love shine through
For crying out loud you know I love you (3X)
I was damned and you were saved
And I never knew how enslaved I was kneeling
In the chains of my master
I could laugh ah but you could cry
And I never knew just how high I was flying
With you right above me
:|| A
For taking in the rain when I'm feelin' so dry
For giving me the answers when I'm asking you why
My oh my for that I thank you
For takin' in the sun when I'm feelin' so cold
For givin' me a child when my body is old
Don't you know for that I need you
For comin' to my room when you know I'm alone
For findin' me a highway and drivin' me home
You gotta know for that I serve you
For pullin' me away when I'm startin' to fall
For revvin' me up when I'm startin' to stall
And all in all for that I want you
For taking and for giving and for playing the game
For praying for my future in the days that remain
Oh lord for that I hold you
Ah but most of all
For cryin' out loud
For that I love you
(repeat 3X)
When you're crying out loud

I didn't take a suitcase
I had to travel light
I climbed out my bedroom window
It was just about quarter past midnight
Out on the highway
I hitched a ride I was heading west
I had to listen to some trucker
Tell me all about the meaning of life
Got a ride just outside of Memphis
I was wild out on the road
I saw shanties' and shacks
And burnt out Cadillac's
And faces that flittered like fawn
Should have seen it coming
Oh I should have seen the signs
I saw seven horses running
I had a front row seat at the end of time
I was just fifteen
And the world was mine
And I watched my dreams
Come to life on that night
I saw Elvis in Vegas
I saw Elvis in Vegas
Now since that long lost summer
I ain't ever looked back
Now the lines on my face
Are looking more like cracks
When things all crumble
Its time to face the facts
I don't care about tomorrow
Oh there's no looking back
I should have seen it coming
Oh I should have seen the signs
I saw seven horses running
I had a front row seat at the end of time
I was just fifteen
And the world was mine
And I watched my dreams
Come to life on that night
I was standing tall
Felt I would never die
And I watched it all
In the white spot light
I saw Elvis in Vegas
I saw Elvis in Vegas
I saw Elvis in Vegas
I saw Elvis in Vegas
[Instrumental]
I should have seen it coming
Oh I should have seen the signs
I saw seven horses running
I had a front row seat at the end of time
When the lights went out
I heard a young girl scream
The sound of my heart beat
?The make up on her brow?
I was just fifteen
And the world was mine
And I watched my dreams
Come to life on that night
I was standing tall
Felt I would never die
And I watched it all
In the white spot light
I saw Elvis in Vegas
I saw Elvis in Vegas
I saw Elvis in Vegas
I saw Elvis in Vegas
I saw Elvis in Vegas
I saw Elvis in Vegas

Did you ever love somebody
So much that the earth moved
Did you ever love somebody
Even though it hurt to
Did you ever love somebody
Nothin' else your heart could do
Did you ever love somebody
Who never knew
Did you ever lay your head down
On the shoulder of a good friend
And then had to look away somehow
Had to hide the way you felt for them
Have you ever prayed the day would come
You'd hear them say they'd feel it too
Have you ever loved somebody
Who never knew
And if
And if
You did
You did
Well you know I'd understand
I could
I could
I would
More than anybody can
Did you ever love somebody
So much that the earth moved
Did you ever love somebody
Even though it hurt to
Did you ever love somebody
Nothin' else your heart could do
Did you ever love somebody
Like I love you

You see me now as large as life, but underneath you knew all too well
The hollow shell, no spark of life
Where once upon a time there beat a heart
For you and you knew it from the start, and you went and blew it all away
And you knew how, oh you knew best
The strings to pull and buttons to press
To wind me up and make me shake, you controlling every move I made
I couldn't see through it, all the pain, and you put me through it
Over and over again, just tell me over and over and over
Chorus:
How could you say there was no other, why is it nothing's what it seems
You told me I'm your greatest lover, do you even know what that word means
Your lovin' is coolin', baby who ya think you're foolin'
'Cos when I woke up I caught you cheatin' in your dreams
When I woke up I caught you cheatin' in your dreams
Stop it! Stop it! Don't you say a word
I feel my hands around her neck and everything went blurred
Broken, broken, she slipped from out my hands
She lay so still and lifeless, I cried baby, baby, baby
(chorus)
(Cheatin', cheatin', cheatin' in your dreams)
(Cheatin', cheatin', cheatin' in your dreams)
It was my dumb luck, I just came unstuck
My whole world shook, I'd had about enough
When I woke up, I caught you cheatin' in your dreams
(Cheatin', cheatin', cheatin' in your dreams) (repeats out)

I'll go blind before I stop
Chorus:
And I'll go blind before I stop, they're gonna have to come in and lock me up
And I'll go blind before I stop, 'cause this boy mama just wanna rock
There's a two ton fireball burnin' through the headphones
Cuttin' up my heart, makin' ashes of my soul
A lightning bolt petition, tonight I'm gonna sign
Trouble out my window and I'm gonna find it
And I'm feelin' the fever, takin' in the heat
Bouncin' to the boogie, hittin' with the beat
Wrapped in rhythm, dancin' till we drop
(chorus)
Moonlite madness masquerade, I got my invitation, baby, time to play
Rip off the headphones, shove my arm into the socket
Sound comes rushing thru me like an intravenous rocket
And I'm feelin' the fever, takin' in the heat
Bouncin' to the boogie, hittin' with the beat
Wrapped in rhythm, dancin' till we drop
(chorus)
(Solo)
Doin' it in the market, doin' it in the mall
Doin' it in the bushes and the high school hall
Doin' it in the alley, doin' it for free
Now they're doin' it baby on MTV
Doin' it in the backseat, doin' it on the beach
Doin' it in the grandstand, just dancin' on the seats
Doin' it in the movies, doin' it on the train
Doin' it mile high in a big jet plane
And I'm feelin' the fever, takin' in the heat
Bouncin' to the boogie, hittin' with the beat
Wrapped in rhythm, dancin' till we drop
And I'll go blind before I stop, they're gonna have to come in and lock me up
(chorus)

The sirens are screaming and the fires are howling
Way down in the valley tonight
There's a man in the shadows with a gun in his eye
And a blade shining oh so bright
There's evil in the air and there's thunder in the sky
And a killer's on the bloodshot streets
And down in the tunnel where the deadly are rising
Oh I swear I saw a young boy
Down in the gutter
He was starting to foam in the heat
Oh Baby you're the only thing in this whole world
that's pure and good and right
And wherever you are and wherever you go
There's always gonna be some light
But i gotta get out
I gotta break it out now
Before the final crack of dawn
So we gotta make the most of our one night together
When it's over you know
We'll both be so alone
Like a bat out of hell
I'll be gone when the morning comes
When the night is over
Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone gone gone
Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone when the morning comes
But when the day is done
And the sun goes down
And the moonlight's shining through
Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven
I'll come crawling on back to you
I'm gonna hit the highway like a battering ram
On a silver black phantom bike
When the metal is hot and the engine is hungry
And we're all about to see the light
Nothing ever grows in this rotten old hole
Everything is stunted and lost
And nothing really rocks
And nothing really rolls
And nothing's ever worth the cost
And I know that I'm damned if I never get out
And maybe I'm damned if I do
But with every other beat I got left in my heart
You know I'd rather be damned with you
If I gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned
Dancing through the night with you
If I gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned
Gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned
If Gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned
Dancing through the night
Dancing through the night
Dancing through the night with you
Oh Baby you're the only thing in this whole world
that's pure and good and right
And wherever you are and wherever you go
There's always gonna be some light
But I gotta get out
I gotta break it out now
Before the final crack of dawn
So we gotta make the most of our one night together
When it's over you know
We'll both be so alone
Like a bat out of hell
I'll be gone when the morning comes
When the night is over
Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone gone gone
Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone when the morning comes
But when the day is done
And the sun goes down
And the moonlight's shining through
Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven
I'll come crawling on back to you
Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven
I'll come crawling on back to you
I can see myself tearing up the road
Faster than any other boy has ever gone
And my skin is raw but my soul is ripe
And no one's gonna stop me now
I gotta make my escape
But I can't stop thinking of you
And I never see the sudden curve until it's way too late
I never see the sudden curve till it's way too late
Then I'm dying on the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun
Torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike
And I think somebody somewhere is tolling a bell
And the last thing I see is my heart
Still beating
Breaking out of my body
And flying away
Like a bat out of hell
Then I'm dying at the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun
Torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike
And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell
And the last thing I see is my heart
Still beating
Still beating
Breaking out of my body and flying away
Like a bat out of hell
Like a bat out of hell
Like a bat out of hell
Like a bat out of hell
Like a bat out of hell

(with Roger Daltry)
They say you never come home, boy you been drivin' too fast
When you gonna shape up, how long is this gonna last
You may be laughin' today, but listen to some good advice
An' take a look at tomorrow in a workin' man's weary eyes
You gotta pick a carreer, go for the gold
Smile for the camera, do what you're told
Well you can take away the ladder 'cos I ain't gonna climb it
If there's a stairway to heaven I swear I'm gonna find it
Chorus:
Well there are winners and outlaws and leaders and lovers
Behind every man in the news
And one thing I know is behind everyone there's a boy who had nothin' to lose
Behind every man who has somethin' to say
There's a boy who had nothin' to prove
An' every hero was once, every villain was once just a boy with a bad attitude
Every hero was once, every villain was once just a boy with a bad attitude
She says you never call, how come you're actin' so tough
You either hold me too tight, or you don't hold me enough
Don't be afraid of me angel, I ain't about to clip your wings
Just put your feet on the ground and your arms around the real thing
You gotta love me for keeps, feather the nest
Plan for the future, an' gimme your best
Boy we're never gonna have a normal family life
Steamin' up and down the speedway on the back a' your bike
(chorus)
Bad attitude, you got us tearin' our hair
Such a bad attitude, boy you just don't seem to care
We try to lay down the rules, but you were born to refuse
What's the world gonna do with a boy like you
You got it bad, you got a bad attitude
You try to lay down the rules, well I was born to refuse
What's the world gonna do with a man like you
You got a bad - no, you got a bad, you got a bad - ooh, you got a bad
You got a bad - no, you got a bad, you got a bad attitude
(Solo)
Every hero was once, every villain was once just a boy with a bad attitude
Every hero was once, every villain was once just a boy
(chorus)
Oh, you got a bad, ooh, you got a bad, oh, you got a bad attitude
No, you got a bad, you got a bad, you got a bad attitude

We search for an answer,
And when it appears
We can challenge the world with our sweat and our tears.
Through winning and losing,
The brave never bend,
The hero keeps fighting, standing tall in the end.
Time can change anything...and mend any fall.
The moment of truth is facing us all,
It's time for the hero to stand tall.
It's a time for heroes,
Time to answer the call,
It's a time for the hero in us all.
We carry the flame
For all to see
The fire and the passion, of what we can be.
Sometimes we must fight,
But we never bend
The hero keeps fighting, standing tall in the end.
Love can change anything...it's inside of us all
To reach out a hand whenever we fall.
It's time for the hero to stand tall.
It's a time for heroes,
Time to answer the call,
It's a time for the hero to stand tall.
It's a time for heroes,
When our back's to the wall

And as the band began to play
Without a song they lose their way
A song of love and custom dreams
A song of yesterday
When they danced
When they danced
Her skirts were lifted high
She felt the music in his arms
The danger in his eyes
And a woman said no
And a man said but I love you so
And a woman moved closer
And a man said take my love into your heart
I must have you here by my side
It happened all too fast
They came to love and they came to last
No-one remembers now who lied
True love is made glass
And a woman said change
And a man said as soon as I can
And a woman said open up
And a man said your way's right
You're my love
I want to be holdin' you down
In the evening of their lives
No regrets and clear blue skies
They meet again in old New York
He tells her one sweet lie
And they danced
And they danced
And a man said I love you
And a woman said take my love into your heart

Some say it's wrong, some say it's right
Some say it's politicians playing both sides
Some say it's greed, some say it's change
Some say it's all just the price we'll have to pay
And I feel a storm coming in
And I see the earth bending in the wind
It's gonna rain, yeah
Wash it all away, yeah
And it ain't gonna stop
No, it ain't gonna stop
For forty days
Some say it's fate, some say it's chance
Some say it's the blood of our fathers on our hands
Some say it's a lie, some say it's the truth
Some say it's all coming down on me and you
And I see a fire in the sky
And I hear the thunder out on the edge of night
It's gonna rain, yeah
Wash it all away, yeah
And it ain't gonna stop
No, it ain't gonna stop
For forty days
Some say the stars will fall down from heaven
Some say the angels will cry and ask us why
It's gonna rain—
Yeah
It's gonna rain
Oh, it's gonna rain
It's gonna rain, rain, rain, rain, yeah
Wash it all away
(it's gonna rain) for forty days
(it's gonna rain) for forty days
(it's gonna rain) for forty days
(it's gonna rain) for forty days
(it's gonna rain)
(it's gonna rain)
(it's gonna rain)
