You placed your bet while you were laughing in my face
And you let another woman take my place
No you wouldn't listen, wouldn't hear
I tried to change your mind
I never knew love was so conceited, so unkind
I was always one step ahead of you
Deep in my heart I always knew
Now admit it, you're gonna lose this fight
I'm not waiting any longer
Get him back to me tonight
Love send him back to me
Now that you've set him free
You better admit defeat
Love send him back to me
You broke her heart while you gambled with their souls
Now she's just another sad adventure you'll forget
But he didn't love her
Still you tried to satisfy your goal
I never knew love was so deceiving, so cold
I was always one step ahead of you
Deep in my heart I always knew
Now admit it, you're gonna lose this fight
I'm not waiting any longer

Caught in the times we live in
Caught in the times we know
It's taking a real hard line
You feel you're becoming a number
Nobody needs your trouble
Gives you the time of day
But kicking the world behind
Won't make it go away
Cos we're strong
And we're big enough to take
Whatever time will bring
We've only one life
And we've gotta lot to give
There's only one time
And we've got to make or break it
Let the Sparks fly out again
Let the feelings tell you when
Let the Sparks fly out again
Flick of the fingers
And they'll cut you down for sure
You gotta be hard sometimes
And so you pretend it's nothing
Finding what to believe in
That's what it's hard to do
Boy there was another time
I saw the best in you
Cos we're strong
And we're big enough to take
Whatever time will bring

They've been out on the road so long
Now they're working their way through all the dirty towns
Singing their hearts out
To the drunks who haunt the bars
Still the ghosts will keep on calling
Sing it out
Sing it out for love again
Guess she heard through a million tears
";When you sing you should brush the hair out of your eyes";
";Come and sit by me girl
Would you like to share my beer?";
Feel his hand slip down her shoulder
Sing it out
Sing it out for love again
But she's lonely - thinking of home
Thinking is sad
And knowing she lost the life
She could have had
Watching trucks as they roll on by
And she'll wave as they disappear around the bend
Shrugging her shoulders
And she'll head back to the bar
";Cue the band"; the boss is shouting
Sing it out
Sing it out for love again
But she's lonely - thinking of home
Thinking is sad
She's thinking about the good times
Never had
And wondering why the bad times
Get so bad
Written by Ricky & Marty Wilde
Mirrored in your face
Is a look that says it all
Boy I'm slow
I've been uncertain
Just couldn't be sure
Now I know
You say it's over
But just how long have you known
(You better go now)
But as you leave me
Shoot to disable
Shoot to disable
Maybe I got careless
Maybe it's true I ran too fast
But on recollection it didn't do much
So I pass
You're such a hard man
Why can't you take steady aim
(Just get it over with)
Don't fool around now
Shoot to disable
Shoot to disable
Oh what a fool I was to love
Written by Ricky & Marty Wilde
Stand at the mirror and look at my face
See all the changes I know somethings wrong
But when I think back to the love that we had
I look for escape 'cos I know that it's gone
I always looked on the touch of our love
As a soft stream running over me
But I always knew there would be a way out
But for you, not for me
Just a felling
Now all I see is the trace of a smile
Memories forgotten a long time ago
Never believed I could see you this way
I don't know what changed you, I'll just never know
I used to dream there was someone around
Who was there just to watch over me
Out in the crowds there was someone around
Who was meant just for me
Friends say ";impossible";
But I say it's got to be
Just a feeling
repeat to fade

Shadows run in the heat of the desert
Hands beat at the door
Someone stands and calls
For the name of Salome
As the veils were pushed away
He gazed upon a face
He'd never seen
Was she a dream ?
He heard the sound from a distance voice
You'd better watch out!
You'd better watch out!
He heard the sound from a thousand years
Calling out
Calling out
In the house of Salome
You have to surrender
";Run with her"; said the young handmaiden
";She will be your queen
All your life you'll live
In the dream of Salome
Take her mouth and with your hands
Just kiss her painted lips
Don't you make a move
'till Salome calls you";
As the music danced around the desert night
He smelt her perfumed skin
As they made love
He heard the sound of a distant voice
You'd better watch out!
You'd better watch out!
He heard the sound of a thousand years
Calling out
Calling out
In the house of Salome
You have to surrender

Don't bring your gun 'round here
Don't need you mouthing off your fear
It touches all you can build a wall
We all have tasted tears
Everything we know
Everything we know
Everything we know
Everywhere we go
We walked along the beach
Once lovers now we're out of reach
Windy skies, they kissed me goodbye
It takes experience to teach
Everything we know
Everything we know
Everything we know
Everywhere we go
Nobody laughed today
I went to watch the children play
Their smiles and mine were frozen in time
I'll just remember them that way
Everything we know
Everything we know
Everything we know
Everywhere we go
I was driving out to meet you that night
Getting reports on the weather
You were coming home, had caught the last flight
But we would soon be together
You'd been gone such a long time
When my radio gave the warning
Chorus:
Chaos at the airport tonight, something ain' t right
No-one can land in the weather
Planes are crashing out of control
And all in all I think you've lost him forever
Looking up I started searching the skies
Was he still up there above me
Was the man who'd waved a million goodbyes
Now just a stranger who loved me
But as I drove to the terminal sign
I heard a great loud explosion
Chorus
I ran so, so fast but if I could only reach you
But you're so far away, you're oh so far away
Landing lights approaching
Out from a sea of darkness
But you're so far away, you're oh so far away
Like a bird of death it hovered around
Until the wheels started turning
Then I saw the jets just touching the ground
And I could see it recurring
And as I looked for the last time
My radio gave the warning
Written by Ricky & Marty Wilde
Shadows across the floor
Memories fading in
Voices are far away
Now it can all begin
";New York are on the 'phone
They want you here today";
";Was it a fashion show ?";
";Sorry they wouldn't say";
There's a world full of dreams
Lying on a pillow
There's a world no-one knows
Wrapped up in her mind
(It's all imagination)
Now she is back in school
(It's the revolution)
Staring at broken glass
(Do what we want you to)
Flicking the flies away
(Total autonomy)
Watching the trains go past
Fighting the Indian war
Cochise is closing in
Now she can touch his face !
Riding so close to him
There's a world full of dreams
Lying on a pillow
There's a world no-one's seen
Living in her mind
Sailing across a sea
Images on a screen
Watching the boats go by
Red merging into green
Roxanne don't run away
(You've been naughty girl)
I told you not to go
(Stay in the garden)
Why do you run away ?
Mommy will sorry so
Written by Kim Wilde & Steve Byrd
Never, ever felt this way before
You are the one that I'am craving for
Another step nearer your heart
Another step closer to knowing you
Another step nearer your heart
I'm on my way
I never thought it could happen
Being close to someone like you
But you know this isn't just a minute affair
If we make time and take a lot of care
I love everything about it
There's such a good feel about it
And I know where I'm gonna be
If you take a step closer to me
I couldn't even describe it
Though I tried I couldn't find the words
When you're stumbling through life
And love is one step away
Carry on or do you stay
We've got to promise faithfully
To hang on to each other and never leave
That's the way love's gonna be
If you take a step closer to me - come on now
The only way to deal with affairs of the heart
You've got to jump right in, doesn't matter who starts
Take a step nearer, come over here
Together we can make it tonight
Written by Ricky & Marty Wilde
Suddenly there's a shadow on a nation
Suddenly it's a changing situation
Fear is on the face of every tiger as the jungle grows
Suddenly people running never walking
Nobody wants to know, nobody's talking
But rushing through the air
I feel the wind of change about to blow
Chorus:
Watch out tonight, the dogs are down in action city
There out tonight, there's trouble down in action city
Watching the police running from the station
Suddenly flashing lights and confrotation
The devil walks the streets
Just as the flames of hell begin to grow
Chorus
It's a brave new world, It's a brave new world
Such a brave new world
Well I don't know where it's going
But it's heading for some changes I know
People are wondering why there's such confusion
There is a face of youth with disillusion
Don't look for the reasons
They were sprayed on every wall I know
Chorus
It's a brave new world, It's a brave new world
Such a brave new world
Well I don't know where it's going
But it's heading for some changes I know
You say everything's alright
I say nothing can go right, yeah
Oh what a game you can play
Sad days add to confusion
Sad ways end in dillusion, yeah
That's the name of the game
CHORUS:
Well I know your love is rough
And the road you take is tough
But I just can't get enough
Chequered love
Touch me, do what you want to
Say no, then, I just need you
Babe, your gonna drive me insane
You are man for all seasons
You are man with no reasons, yeah
You're the man with no pain
CHORUS
Oh I can't let go (x 2)
'Cos I need you so tonight
You say everything's alright
I say nothing can go right, yeah
Oh what a game you can play
Sad days add to confusion
Sad ways end in dillusion, yeah
That's the name of the game
Well I know your love is rough
And the road you take is tough
But I just can't get enough
Chequered love
Oh I can't let go (x 2)
Something's coming down the street
something static under your feet
Never looking left or right 'cos shelljust blow you out of sight.
She's never waiting on your smile - devastating
what's in her style?
Situation no-go zone
but shell cut loose when she's alone.
She's a love blonde
she's a love blonde
She's a love blonde
she's got that sensuality for love.
When the boys say
how you been
what you doin'
can we get in?"
Eyes'll flash and lips will smile
but shell just tease them for a while
'cos now you see her
now you don't. You could be there
only you won't.
If you've got that
Savoir Faire"
well
that girl knows and she's aware.
She's a love blonde
she's a love blonde
. . .
Well
if you fill her dreams tonight
just lay back and hold on tight.
She's a love blonde
she's a love blonde
. . .
She's a love blonde. she's a love blonde
View from a bridge - Can't take anymore
View from a bridge - Can't take anymore.
I guess it all began about a year ago
Like a cheap love magazine
You know the kind you read about and have to laugh
At the pages in between.
Now I can't believe that fool inside is me
'cos Ijust can't face the world I've grown to see.
View from a bridge - Can't take anymore
. . .
I saw you kissing her
I saw you makin her
In the soft sheets in between.
But when you turned around I saw your eyes were fire
And you crashed out aU. my dreams
And like a fool Ijust stood there and let it go -
I should have fought right back and let my feelings show.
View from a bridge - Can't take anymore
. . .
You sure as hell knew how to make a fool outa me.
Well
you cut me down for the things you want
and now its killing me
oh -
But then a voice said jump and I just let go and I'm floating out in space.
But then I feel your arms and I turn around to a ghost without a face
And I just don't know what's fact or fantasy
'cos when I look below the bridge I see it's me.
View from a bridge - Can't take anymore
. . .
View from a bridge - Can't take anymore
. . .
View from a bridge - Can't take anymore
Everyone round keeps putting us down, let it go.
It's the same odl play in a grown up day.
It's a stinging sensation.
Hanging round on every corner.
Where, all the young kids I know want to be.
A. We anly wanna stay young, we only wanna be free.
He doesn't wanna be you, she doesn't wanna be me.
R. We're young heroes. (2) [End of A.]
Shouted down pushed and we're getting real bushed.
Just have your say and we'll do it your way,
if it makes you feel better.
Nothing much to add to what I say,
'cause I know just how it feels to be...
[Repeat A.]
Keep me hangin' on -
Set me free
why don't you
baby?
Get ofF my life
why don't you
baby?
'Cause you don't really love me
you just keep me hangin' on.
Set me free
why don't you
baby?
Get off my life
why don't you
baby?
'Cause you don'r really need me
but you keep me hangin' on.
Why do you keep a comin' around playing with my heart?
Why don't you get out of my life
and let me make a brand-new start?
Let me get over you
the way you've gotten over me.
Set me free
why don't you
baby?
Get off my life
why don't you
baby?
'Cause you don't really love me
you just keep me hangin' on.
Now you don't really need me
you just keep me hangin' on.
You say although we broke up
You still iust wanna be friends
But how can we still be friend;
When seeing you only breaks my heart again?
- And there ain't nothing I can do about it -
Get out
get out of my life and let me sleep at night
'Cause you don't really love me
you just keep me hangin' on.
You say you still care for me
But your heart and soul needs to be free.
And now that you've got your freedom
You wanna still hold on to me.
You don't want me for yourself
So let me find somebody else.
Set me free
why don't you
baby?
Get off my life
why don't you
baby?
'Cause you don't really love me
you just keep me hangin on.
Why don't you be a man about it and set me freez
Now you don't care a thing about me
you're just using me
using me.
Get out
get out of my life and let me sleep at night
'Cause yov don't really love me
you just keep
I couldn't believe what I read when I got your letter.
Said you needed to take some time to work out your life... Yeah.
Well it's easy for you to just go out and do what you want any time youy please.
Don't expect me to wait if you need me too late.
You gonna have to come back on your knees.
A. Wotcha gonna do?
When it gets so lonely.
When you're down, you're so far away from home.
How's it gonna feel?
You know it won't get better.
Coz' you've made your bed so you can lie in it on your own.
Wotcha gonna. [End of A.]
I really ??? feeling a need to just change direction.
But I didn't know you were gonna walk away from me... Noo.
Now you're out on your own ??? you have left behind.
Now it's crazy to see coz' know where I be ??? find.
[Repeat A.]
??? don't be a fool ????? you got so much to loose.
And I really love you baby, don't you know that I do?
If you ??? all around you.
Changing shapes as you move around open mine.
R. Just watching for shapes that go. (2)
Like electronic spark ??? open window.
??? Looking around
There be there ???
R. Just watching for shapes that go. (2)
[Short solo]
In my mind it's a space that's full of painted pictures.
Now and then is a flash...
R. Just watching for shapes that go. (2)
Try again, try again
I can't see your face
Hear the excuses for the mistakes that you make
I've heard all your lies
I don't know how much I can take before I break
I've tried to be so strong while you broke the promises
All the vows that we made
We know something's wrong but we carry on anyway
Day by day
You're the one
Who let me down
And now I find it hard to forgive
In my heart
But I'll try again to forget all the pain
And love you again I'll try again
Though you hurt me I know
I can't let you go
How can we forget the sweetness of yesterday
We just can't let it go
Lost in bitterness I'm losing my self control
And my soul
You're the one
Who let me down
And now I find it hard to forgive
In my mind
But I'll try again to forget all the pain
And love you again I'll try again
Though you hurt me I know
I can't let you go
Oh why, why do we hurt each other more
When there's a way 'cos we never really found
What we were looking for
Can we try again?
'Cos you're the one
Who let me down
And now I find it hard to forgive
In my heart
But I'll try again to forget all the pain
And love you again I'll try again
Though you hurt me I know
I can't let you go
Try again
Hard to get a view of things
Through a broken window
Hard to understand the reasons
Why love comes and goes
Just when you turn a corner
And think that you'll find
Some peace of mind
Confusion will strike you blind
It's too late to turn back now
It's too late to turn it all around
It's too late, no words to say
I know it's gonna be another lonely day
I can't find a reason I should stay
Hard to understand the reasons
Why love comes and goes
Just when you turn a corner
And think that you'll find
Some peace of mind
Confusion will strike you blind
It's too late to turn back now
It's too late to turn it all around
It's too late, no words to say
I know it's gonna be another lonely day
I can't find a reason
(I know, I know)
I know it's gonna be another lonely day
(I know, I know)
I know it's gonna be another lonely day
Confusion will strike you blind
It's too late to turn back now
It's too late to turn it all around
It's too late, no words to say
'Cos I know it's gonna be another lonely day
But I can't find a reason I should stay
It's too late to turn back now
It's too late to turn it all around
I know I'm right
It's too late, no words to say
'Cos I know it's gonna be another lonely day
Funny
what fate can bring you and the things that it can do.
Funny
how life will change you when you least expect it to.
I wasn't into anyone
I danced in a sea of faces.
I wasn't into anything
but baby
you know:
Together we're so right;
the touch that I get from you's incredible.
So right; the touch that I get when I look at you.
Maybe the touch you give me is the look I get from you.
Maybe the spell it's weaving is the way you feel it
too.
Maybe you'll stop and walk away
don't look at me to follow.
I wouldn't run for anyone
but baby
you know:
Together we're so right;
the touch that I get from you's incredible.
So right; the touch that I get
that I get from you.
Whatever it is we've got
Well
maybe we could find out more about it.
Baby
we'll create this feeling
anytime
anytime.
I wasn't into anyone
I danced in a sea of faces.
I wasn't into anything
but baby
you know:
Together we're so right;
the touch that I get from you's incredible. ...
So right

Don't start to fumble it up
Just do it
Go, go
Don't wanna know about vacations in this cheap motel
Don't wanna know about your sea green curtains
'Cos all I want and all I need is just some time with you
Don't complicate it, just do it once again
Just go for it
Just go for the second time
Just go for it, just go, just go
Don't wanna hear about the time and how it's gettin' late
How can you stop when I could go for hours
You need some magic, come on let me lean on you
Don't look around, you're not goin' anywhere
Just go for it
Just go for the second time
Just go for it, just go, just go for it
All I need and all I need
'Cos all I want and all I need
I'm never letting go, baby don't expect me to
How can you stop when my whole world's exploding
Look in the mirrors and see the heat of something new
Why don't we do it, just do it once again
Just go for it
Just go for the second time
Just go for it, just go for it
Don't be so nervous
Don't get so hot
Don't start to fumble it up
'Cos all I want and all I need
There's such an urgency in everything I need from you
Stop giving up, you know you can't refuse me
I've every reason to believe there's still a man in you
You done it once, so come on go again
Just go for it
Just go for the second time
Just go for it, just go
Just go for it, just go
Just go for it, just go
Missing, missing, missing
They said "Stick with your own kind
You're out of your depth
Think you've had it bad so far
You're not finished yet"
And all she's known is the taste of tears
She's going nowhere, can anybody hear?
Now she's missing in the eyes of the law
She got out quick, she couldn't take much more
Now she's missing in the eyes of the law
Somebody help her
(Missing)
It's cold in the street
There's a cold in her nose
She's been walking all night
And the rain's soaked her clothes
She doesn't know what she's doin' here
She shrugs her shoulders, guess, that's the way it goes
An' now she's missing in the eyes of the law
She only did it 'cos she wanted much more
An' now she's missing in the eyes of the law
Somebody help her, somebody help her
Somebody help her, missing
Now she's missing in the eyes of the law
She only did it 'cos she wanted much more
Now she's missing in the eyes of the law
Somebody help her, somebody help her
Somebody help her, somebody help her
Light of the moon
You can't touch it
It won't let you near
You can't hold it
'Cos it will disappear
You can't keep it
It don't belong to you
And when you need it
There's nothing you can do
Love has the final word
You're a fool if you can't see
But I know that the light of the moon
Belongs to me
(Belongs to me, belongs to me)
Not the warmth of the sun
Caress of the breeze
Not the sound of the wind
As it blows through the trees
But the light of the moon
(Light of the moon)
Belongs to me
(Belongs to me, belongs to me)
Not the warmth of your smile
Caress of your hand
Not the love that you give me
Again and again
But the light of the moon
(Light of the moon)
Belongs to me
(Belongs to me, belongs to me)
So many people forget
To set love free
Love is a river
Love is a raging sea
Don't try to tame it
Or you will watch it die
Don't try to chain it
You've got to let it fly
Love has the final word
You're a fool if you can't see
But I know that the light of the moon
(Belongs to me)
Not the warmth of the sun
Caress of the breeze
Not the sound of the wind
As it blows through the trees
But the light of the moon
(Light of the moon)
Belongs to me
(Belongs to me, belongs to me)
Not the warmth of your smile
Caress of your hand
Not the love that you give me
Again and again
But the light of the moon
(Light of the moon)
Belongs to me
(Belongs to me, belongs to me)
Ooh, you say I live in a dream
That I live in a make-believe
But I know that the light of the moon
Belongs to me
Belongs to me, belongs to me
Belongs to me, belongs to me
Not the warmth of the sun
(Belongs to me)
Caress of your hand
(Belongs to me)
Not the love that you give me
(Belongs to me)
Again and again
(Belongs to me)
But the light of the moon
(Light of the moon)
Belongs to me

Out on my own
In the suburbs of Moscow
Out in the rain
Walking down this long avenue
Out to the crowds in the square
Feelings are high everywhere
But the feeling is gone
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
And I can't break away
(Living in Moscow)
Out in the cold
(So cold)
When there's nowhere to stay
Look at the girl
Gazing through the window
Clutching her books
Memorizing every line
Keep your belief at the start
This was the faith in my heart
But the feeling is gone
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
And I can't break away
(Living in Moscow)
Out in the cold
(So cold)
When there's nowhere to stay
Where can we go
In the suburbs of Moscow?
Watching the rain
Beating down empty streets
Yes, the feeling is gone
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
And I can't break away
(Living in Moscow)
Out in the cold
(So cold)
When there's nowhere to stay
Yes, the feeling is gone
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
And I can't break away
(Living in Moscow)
Out in the cold
(So cold)
When there's nowhere to stay
Yes, the feeling is gone
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
And I can't break away
(Living in Moscow)
Out in the cold
(So cold)
When there's nowhere to stay
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Living in Moscow
Hidden away, it's the end of a day
And you're not really thinking at all
There's that same stupid paper on the wall
And a stain where the damp's crawling
He's still looking for his Shangri-la
But he wouldn't know it
If it hit him in the face
If it hit him in the face
Day turns to daze and indifference plays
While a sun goes on beating in the sky
And a small child falls over as she crys
Somewhere someone is calling her
She's still looking for her Shangri-la
But she wouldn't know it
If it hit her in the face
If it hit her in the face
I take a look behind me
And the sun shines brighter there
And the people are much more beautiful
In a place without a care
And I'm wondering if there'll ever be room for me
In Shangri-la
Wondering now, do you love me
As I burn with a dangerous desire
Is our time up and on to the next fire
Got my fingers burnt and cut into the wire
Do you think we will ever learn now
We keep looking our Shangri-la
Our Shangri-la
But we wouldn't know it
If it hit us in the face
If it hit us in the face
If it hit us in the face
If it hit us in the face
If it hit us in the face
If it hit us in the face
If it hit us in the face
I dreamed I lived? the whole thing ? last night
Somehow I still don't seem to get it right
I watched the dusty wasted skyes
? woman ?? ??? ? Pick me up and fill my? ?eyes
A. Shane! Can't you hear me calling you?
Shane if I thought that you would still be riding through.
I said shane.
Please take me back there with you.
Take a tune/tour. [End of A.]
I'm watching Marian as she let go.
I felt I was ? a timeless zone
It's hard for anyone to understand her pain.
You got to see the man to understand he wouldn't change.
It's something else to see the way you're growing
From a sweet little baby to a grown-up girl.
And I pray though darling I've no way of knowing
Thnt you'll discover a beautiful world.
As you skip down the street and hold your books so tightly
Tell me what are you learning in your abc ?
Are you dreaming of all the many things you might be?
You know that we're just waiting to see you !
Schoolgirl - you're such an inspiration
Schoolgirl - oh
you're as fresh as the breeze.
You've got the whole world
it's waiting for you
You're really Comething
something to see.
It's easy to worry in a world of trouble
When there's nothing but bad news trying to bring you down.
But life doesn't have to be an uphill struggle
There's still some wonderful things to be found !
Schoolgirl - you're such an inspiration
. . .
There is sadness and confusion in our hearts
And the world prepares to fight
As it tears itself apart - it isn't fair !
Schoolgirl - you're such an inspiration
. . .
You little schoolgirl -
Schoolgirl - oh
you're as fresh as the breeze. . . .
Schoolgirl - you're such an inspiration
You say hug and I hug.
You say drop and I drop.
You say stop and I stop.
Anything you say, ??????????????
I'm just that putty... putty in your hands.
You can use be use me
lauging at
Don't you treat me as a fool.
I'm not gonna play.
I knew there was danger
but couldn't resist
The touch of a stranger
the thrill of his kiss.
'Cause this time I thought it was love
I thought it was heaven
Having the time of my life
I know it's not true
never trust a stranger with your heart
Oh no
never trust a stranger with your heart!
My world is in pieces
you've stolen my pride
And I'm left defeated and crushed by your life.
I thought it was love
I thought it was heaven
Having the time of my life
I know it's not true.
never trust a stranger with your heart
Like a tiger you hunted and tracked me down
savaged my soul and took over control.
And then you'd used all the love you found
You left without trace
not a note or a single good-bye.
I thought it was love
I thought it was heaven
Having the time of my life
I know it's not true.
never trust a stranger with your heart
And they please you.
Singing songs about love
They'll upset you
Almost believe
So don't believe they writing all those songs for you.
Coz' there is only lies you listening to.
can't you see
What would you do with your life.
...hurt you hurt you
Looking out a dirty old window.
Down below the cars in the city go rushing by.
I sit here alone and I wonder why.
Friday night and everyone's moving.
I can feel the heat but it's soothing.
Heading down, I search for the beat in this dirty town.
Down town the young ones are going.
Down town the young ones are growing.
We're the kids in America.
We're the kids in America.
Everybody live for the music-go-round.
Bright ligths the music get faster.
Look boy, don't check on your watch, not another glance.
I'm not leaving now, honey not a chance.
Hot-shot, give me no problems.
Much later baby you'll be saying never mind.
You know life is cruel, life is never kind.
Kind hearts don't make a new story.
Kind hearts don't grab any glory.
We're the kids in America.
We're the kids in America.
Everybody live for the music-go-round.
Come closer, honey that's better.
Got to get a brand new experience.
Feeling right.
Oh don't try to stop baby.
Hold me tight.
Outside a new day is dawning.
Outside Suburbia's sprawling everywhere.
I don't want to go baby.
New York to East California.
There's a new wave coming I warn you.
We're the kids in America.
We're the kids in America.
Everybody live for the music-go-round.
We're the kids
We're the kids
Set me free, why don't you babe?

'cause you don't really love me
you just keep me hanging on
Set me free, why don't you babe?
get out my life, why don't you babe?
'cause you don't really need me
but you keep me hanging on
Why do you keep a comin' around

You say although we broke up
you still just wanna be friends
but how can we still be friends
when seeing you only breaks my heart again
(and there ain't nothing I can do about it...)
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa x4
Yeah …
Get out, get out of my life
and let me sleep at night
'cause you don't really love me
you just keep me … hanging on
You say you still care for me
but your heart and soul needs to be free
and now that you've got your freedom
you wanna still hold on to me
you don't want me for yourself
so let me find somebody else
Set me free, why don't you babe?
get out my life, why don't you babe?
'cause you don't really love me
you just keep me hanging on
Why don't you be a man about it … set me free
now you don't care a thing about me
you're just using me, hey, abusing me
get out, get out of my life
and let me sleep at night
'cause you don't really love me
Now, really what a day, I never thought to seeing you here.
Funny how it goes never thought to see you fall.
??? down on love Now I can see it all
Do you take a train...Do you take a train to nowhere,
Breathing on the the phone ???
So you remember ? Now I don't need you at all.
A. R. You're just another guy.
You just another lie. (2)
Out in the ??????? [End of a.]
??? shot ??? hearts where knowing
It's really shame heart show
There's no big deal ??? I know.
[Repeat A.]
Gotta say goodbye, gotta catch a train to nowhere.
I didn't wanna love, I didn't wanna come on strong.
??? there's no big scene hanging around.
In my life
In my life
In my life
Look for the strength you know you can feel
Search of the truth you know that it's real
Then reach for the place you know they can't steal
And say, "I'm feeling good with my life"
No point in letting life bring you down
There's always something bad hanging 'round
Face up to trouble and stare it out
I know I'm feeling good with my life
In my life everything is feeling good
In my life feeling like you know it should
In my life can't you see it's understood
I'm feeling good with my life
No better place to start than with you
Get your head together then follow through
It's not what you're saying, it's what you do
I know I'm feeling good with my life
Don't fantasize how your life could be
Make all your dreams a reality
Then there is nothing can bring you down
I know I'm feeling good with my life
In my life everything is feeling good
In my life feeling like you know it should
In my life can't you see it's understood
I'm feeling good with my life
We've got to make it living together
Learning to share our lives
We've got to speak from the heart
Find a new way to start
That's something we've all got to realize
In my life
I'm feeling good with my life
I'm feeling good with my life
In my life everything is feeling good
In my life feeling like you know it should
In my life can't you see it's understood
I'm feeling good with my life
I'm feeling good with my life
I'm feeling good with my life
In my life, in my life
In my life, in my life
We were dancing
dancing in the dark
Sweet romancing
something's gonna start. We were dancing.
He stepped into the night with his heart open wide
I was standing there with nowhere left to hide.
He looked to me like a shadow moving in the night
Then he took a hold of my hand in the soft moonlight.
And we were dancing
dancing in the dark
. . .
I could hear his heartbeat pounding in the night
I could feel his body starting to be kind.
With his soft red lips made up my mind
His soothing kiss was all I desired.
And we were dancing
dancing in the dark.
We kissed and touched but it wasn't enough to stop this wheel of fire
One step at a time and I knew he was mine
We were lost in the heat of desire.
And we were dancing
dancing in the dark
. . .
No way
no way at all to stop us moving closer
Each look in his eyes made my heart beat in time
Over and over and over and over.
And we were dancing
dancing in the dark
. . .
And we were dancing
dancing in the dark
Darling
don't you know I've had enough wasting all my time?
Darling
put it on the line.
'Cause I heard you Iying time and time again
and I don't want to any more.
This is where our loving has to end
Darling
now you know the score
so good-bye
baby.
Mr. Heartache
how much can you fake?
How many hearts break before you get enough?
Mr. Heortache
you don't give
you just take
I hope for your sake you don't turn your back on love.
Darling
don't know what you're looking for
But I'm not waiting round to see.
Darling
can't take any more
I still love you but I'm gonna set you free
'Ooh
and that's the way it's got to be.
'Cause I know I can't change you anyway
Darling
there's nothing left to say
but good-bye
baby.
Mr. Heartache
how much can you fake? . . .
Listen to me
so listen to me
baby
baby
baby
baby
baby
baby.
'Cause I was stupid to believe you could give me what I need
You use anyone you can
yet you call yourself a man.
Well
I've seen through your disguise
and it's all that I despise
Now you've iust run out of time
go before I change my mind!
Mr. Heartache
I still love you
baby
Mr. Heartache
I still love you

I still love you but I'm gonna set you free

'Cause I know I can't change you anyway

but good-bye
baby.
Mr. Heartache

Go go
Don't wanna know about vacations in this cheap motel
Don't wanna know about your sea green curtains
Cos all I want 'n' all I need is just some time with you
Don't complicate it - Just do it once again
Just go for it
Just go for the second time
Just go for it, just go - just go
Don't wanna hear about the time and how it's gettin' late
How can you stop when I could go for hours
You need some magic; come on let me lean on you
Don't look around - you're not goin' anywhere
Just go for it
Just go for the second time
Just go for it, just go - just go for it
'Cos all I need
And all I need
'Cos all I want 'n' all I need
I'm never letting go - baby don't expect me to
How can you stop when my whole world's exploding (go)
Look in the mirrors - and see the heat of something new
Why don't we do it - just do it once again
Just go for it
Just go for the second time
Just go for it, just go - just go for it
Don't be so nervous
Don't get so hot
Don't start to fumble it up
'Cos all I want 'n' all I need
There's such an urgency in everything I need from you
Stop giving up - you know you can't refuse me (go)
I've every reason to believe there's still a man in you
You done it once so come on go again
Just go for it
Just go for the second time
Just go for it, just go
Fit in, fit in
I'm spending nights just dreaming
And playing the music loud
They're banging on the ceiling
They're praying that I'll soon be out
I almost thought of leaving
Get away from the glares
And their unfriendly stares
And now I'm all alone
And the telephone teases and dares
(You gotta ring, you gotta ring)
I'll get away from them all, oh, oh
So pride comes before a fall
But I'm not for giving in
(Fit in, fit in)
Ah, ooh
(Fit in, fit in)
They're kicking up a storm in
Some strange place they know out of town
Why won't I go along there
It's crazy they're all doing it now
But right now it's the last place
That I wanna see, it's my way to be free
And I'm getting bored
Of the way they expect me to be
(You gotta be, you gotta be)
I'll get away from them all, oh, oh
So pride comes before a fall
But I'm not for giving in
I don't fit in, fit in
I don't fit in, fit in
I'm holding on so tightly
But I don't want to take any more
'Cos what they say just bites me
And gets to me down to the core
A ring and kids invite me
Or a house and a home
And a car and a phone, and a video
Won't they ever leave it alone
(You gotta ring, you gotta ring)
I'll get away from them all, oh oh
So pride comes before a fall
But I'm not for giving in
(Fit in, fit in)
Ah, ooh
(Fit in, fit in)
I won't fit in, fit in
I don't fit in, fit in, ah ooh
I don't fit in, fit in
I don't fit in, fit in
Feel it in the rushing wind.
Brushing up against your mind.
Look for a way to go.
Head for the border sign.
You could be gone.
You could be far away.
Soon you must fly free.
And yes...
Somehow you'll find what you've been missing.
There was more to life than visions we had dreamed about.
A. Can you hear it calling you?
Can you?
Can you hear it calling you?
Can you hear it coming through to you?
When you hear it calling you.
It's your freedom. [End of A.]
If you're on your own.
If you have been betrayed.
Stand by the truth you love.
Don't get it mislaid.
You're not alone.
And nothing can hold you down.
Soon you will be free.
And yes...
Somehow you'll find what you've been missing.
There was more to life than anything you dreamed about.
[Repeat A.]

Well
he was Thailand based
she was an airforce-wife.
He used to fly weekends
it was the easy life.
But then it turned around and he began to change.
She didn't wonder then
she didn't think it strange.
But then he got a call
he had to leave that night.
He couldn't say too much
but it would be all right.
He didn't need to pack - they'd meet the next night.
He had a job to do
flying to Cambodia.
And as the nights passed by she tried to trace the past.
The way he used to look
the way he used to laugh.
I guess she'll never know what got inside his soul.
She couldn't make it out
just couldn't take ist all.
He had the saddest eyes the girl had ever seen.
He used to cry some nights as though he lived a dream.
And as she held him close he used to search her face
As though she knew the truth - lost inside Cambodia.
But then a call came through
they said he'd soon be home.
She had to pack a case and they would make a rendezvous.
But now a year has passed and not a single word
And all the love she knew
Has disappeared out in the haze. - Cambodia.
Don't cry now - no tears now.
And now the years have passed with not a single word
But there is only one thing left
I know for sure
Dancing with Back Street Joe.
That was a time I loved.
When we were kids so young, so long ago.
Dancing with Back Street Joe, back in a time I loved.
We used to move all night, that was a time to know.
There comes a time in your life. When you just wanna break free.
But now I wanna go back, I wanna have him with me.
Dancing with Back Street Joe. We used to want that sound.
And everytime it played, we used to hang around.
A. There was music and there was rhythm and
there was something I can't expain.
Out of nowhere he'd move his shoulder and
make you feel you could live again. [End of A.]
Then came a moment in time when I just had to be free.
But now I wanna go back.
I wanna go back and see... that look in his eyes again.
And now in the streets... I look for you Joe.
Dancing with Back Street Joe.
Back in the streets I love.
We used to dance all night. Was it so long ago?
[Repeat A.]
R. Dancing with Back Street Joe. (*)
Let's think of the good things
Instead of all the bad
We mustn't give into
A world that's going mad
So hold on, we can survive
We've got to keep the spirit
Of destiny alive
Just say that we can if we try
Like the rivers need the mountains
Just like the flowers need the rain
Pleasure need the pain
However far away it seems
I'm dreaming for a world
In perfect armony
And we've got to face it
There's nowhere left to hide
(but we need) a determination
To change the wrong to right
The future's a baby born
Looking for us for strength
To keep it from harm
You know we'll succeed if we try
Like the rivers need the mountains
Just like flowers need the rain
Pleasure need the pain
How ever far away it seems
I'm dreaming for a world
In perfect harmony
Don't let your dreams escape
Are you the devil come to carry away my soul?
I want to love you but I don't want to lose control
You're taking over me with each little move you make
I want to trust you but it could be a big mistake
I know
But the moment you're here every thing's right
I lose the fear of the shadows in the night
But then the moment you're gone every thing's wrong
It never felt this strong
Baby, hold on
A miracle's coming
Can you believe it?
Take it in and breathe it
Baby, hold on
A miracle's coming
You gotta understand
It's right here in our hands
I know
I hear the questions when you look into my eyes
You're scared of rumors, but I tell you they're only lies
This is forever, how can either of us be sure?
All I can tell you is I never felt this before
I know
But the moment you're here every thing's right
I lose the fear of the shadows in the night
But baby, the moment you're gone every thing's wrong
It never felt this strong
Baby, hold on
A miracle's coming
Can you believe it?
Take it in and breathe it
Baby, hold on
A miracle's coming
You gotta understand
It's right here in our hands
I know, I know, I know, I know
Take it in and breathe it
A miracle's coming
Baby, hold on
A miracle's coming
Can you believe it?
Take it in and breathe it
Baby, hold on
A miracle's coming
You gotta understand
It's right here in our hands
A miracle's coming
Baby, hold on
A miracle's coming
You gotta understand
It's right here in our hands
A miracle's coming
I tell you
it's hell
yeah
When love says good-bye it's a four letter word.
Because your heart knows when love goes
The feeling is bad
it's the pits (worst) of the world.
It's sad but true when nothing you can do bring it back.
Standing in the rain she starts to cry
Is it all a game she wonders why.
Why it had to start
why should it end and take her apart?
Because she shows it
she knows it
But what can she do
it's a four letter word.
Because it shakes you
it breaks you
And when it's the end
it's the worst thing you heard.
It's over now and nothing you can do can bring it back.
Calling out his name she starts to cry
Guys are all the same
she wants to die.
Hide away the tears no-one will see and no-one must hear.
But oh
how can the love that she has be profain?
And how can something that's so beautiful just Jeckyl and Hyde around?
It's too said!
I tell you
it's hell
yeah
Standing in the rain she starts to cry
Shouting out inane

Fresh out of school the young girl lose the sound
She's gonna go where the young bands hang around
And it's still to right with a voice inside
She's screaming, dreaming
And there's no disguise when you look in her eyes she's scheming
I'm thinking about the boys
She's thinking about the boys
Thinking about the boys
There in the dark he starts to touch her hair
Others go round but right now you don't care
Well you just don't fight when they're holding you tight
That feeling, feeling
Well it looks to good and he's making it so appealing
I'm thinking about the boys
Thinking about the boys
Thinking about the boys
Still feeling ground as she goes to make the kill
Watching her move the world is standing still
Cos its still too right with a voice inside
You screaming, dreaming
And there's no disguise when you look in their eyes she's scheming
I'm thinking about the boys

someone I know is staring at me
And when I look into her eyes
I see a girl that I used to be
I hardly recognise
Cos in the space of a year
I've watched the old me disappear
All of the things I once held precious
Just don't mean anything anymore
Cos suddenly
You came, and changed the way I feel
No one could love you more
Because you came and turned my life around
No one could take your place
I've never felt good with permanent things
Now I don't want anything to change
You can't imagine the joy you bring
My life won't be the same
And I'll be there when you call
I'll pick you up if you should fall
Cos I have never felt such inspiration
Nobody else ever gave me more because
You came, and changed the way I feel
No one could love you more
Because you came and turned my life around
No one could take your place
I watch you sleep in the still of the night
You look so pretty when you dream
So many people just go through life
Holding back, they don't say what they mean
But it's easy for me
Since you came
No one could love you more
Because you came and turned my life around
No one could take your place
You came, and changed the way I feel
No one could love you more
Because you came and turned my life around
No one could take your place
