Well, I used to work the graveyard
Used to have to paint the stones
Now I clean the farmyard
Have to lick it clean alone
I got a wife and kid
Sharin' an econoline
We keep the sucker hid
Underneath the Hollywood sign
You know I do alright
Oh yeah, and it's okay
I'd like to kill the light
I'd love to sleep all day
Livin' in a dream
Livin' in the U.S.A.
Livin' in a dream
Livin' in the U.S.A.
And I used to have a penthouse
I used to have a wife like you
Now I keep the door locked
Her attorney's tryin' to break in to
Everyone's aboard
It's quite the social set
And they leave me Polaroids
Of everyone I never met
You know they do alright
It's the all American way
They like to stay all night
Oh, they love to drink all day
Livin' in a dream
Livin' in the U.S.A.
Livin' in a dream
Livin' in the U.S.A.
Purple mountain majesty
Crumble into the sea
Spirit of the spacious skies
Shine your grace on me
Livin' in a dream
Livin' in the U.S.A.
Livin' in a dream
Livin' in the U.S.A.
Livin' in a dream
Livin' in the U.S.A.
Livin' in a dream
(Tony Joe White)
If I ever saw a good thing
Baby it's you
If I ever had a sweet dream
Baby it's you
There ain't nothing else I want to do
But spend my time lovin' you
If I ever saw a good thing
Baby it's you
They say that one time in your life
You'll find the one
Who'll stand beside you
No matter where you go
And I know that must be true
'Cause baby I found you
If I ever saw a good thing
Baby it's you
You know that everybody needs
Someone to love
'Cause it's a lonesome soul
Who walks alone
But I don't know what I'd do
Baby if I didn't have you
'Cause it's a long and lonesome road
To walk alone
If I ever saw a good thing
Baby it's you
If I ever had a sweet dream
Baby it's you

Ah~ah~ahhh-ah!.
Ah~ah~ahhh-ah!.
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
Hammer of the Gods
Will drive our ships to new lands
To fight the horde, and sing and cry:
";Valhalla I am coming.";
On we sweep with, with threshing oar.
Our only goal will be the western shore.
Ah~ah~ahhh-ah!.
Ah~ah~ahhh-ah!.
An' we come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
How soft your fields so green
Can whisper tales of gore,
Of how we calmed the tides of war.
We are your overlords.
On we sweep with threshing oar.
Our only goal will be the western shore.
So now you better stop
And rebuild all your ruins.
For peace and trust can win the day
Despite of all your losing.
Ooh~ooh. Ooh~ooh. Ooh~ooh.
Ooh~ooh. Ooh~ooh. Ooh~ooh.
Ah hah hah hah hah hah.

No matter what you are
I will always be with you
'Cause no matter what you do, girl
Ooh girl, with you
No matter what you do
I will always be around
Won't you tell me what you found, girl
Ooh girl, want you
Knock down the old, grey wall
Be a part of it all
Nothing to say, nothing to see, nothing to do
If you would give me all
As I would give it to you
Nothing would be, nothing would be, nothing would be
No matter where you go
There would always be a place
Can't you see it in my face, girl
Ooh girl, want you

(Bitch: Jagger/Richards It's Only Rock 'n' Roll: Jagger/Richards Women: M. Jones)
I'm feeling so tired, can't understand it
Just had a full night's sleep
I'm feeling so stuck, I'm so distracted
Ain't touched a thing all week
I'm feeling drunk baby, too stoned and sloppy
Ain't touched a drink all night
I'm feelin' hungered, can't see the reason
Just had an all-meat pie
Girl when you call my name
I salivate like Pavlov's dog
Girl when you lay me out
My heart is beatin' louder than a big bass drum, oh right
Now you got the mix
and Audie you got the sticks
Love is a bitch
Yeah you got the mix
Audie you got the sticks boy
But love is just a bitch, oh yeah
She's just a bitch, baby
If I could sing you,
If I could sing you a love song so divine
Would it be enough for your cheatin' heart
Or would you think this boy's insane
He's insane
I'm talkin' 'bout the women
all around the world
Women behind bars
Women in fast cars
Women in distress
I like a lady with no dress
Women in aeroplanes
Women who play their games
Women in a uniform
See the woman with her clothes torn
Women who satisfy
Women you can't buy
Like the women in a magazine
And them ladies in the limousine
Women who sip champagne
Women who feel no pain
Women in a disco
Women that don't want to know, know, know
Women wanting sympathy
Women feelin' ecstacy
Women that live in a fantasy
About bringin' a man right down to his knees, yeah
Women that fall in love
Women that need a shove
Women that can't be beat
Check out that lady in my back seat
Women in the U.S.A.
The women steal your heart away
Women into rock 'n' roll
Or the ladies in the back of the bus after the show
Women that we write songs about
Women that turn around and kick you out
Women you dream about all your life
Women that stab you in the back with a switchblade knife
Yeah you got a mix
and Audie you got the sticks boy
But love is a bitch
Yeah you got a mix
Audie, you got the sticks baby
But love is a bitch, all right
She's a real cool bitch
She's a nasty bitch, yeah
Ain't love a bitch
(Rose, K.J.)
She was just sixteen, she was so sweet and clean
She walked just like she know where she'd been.
She set my blood on fire, I said ";Are you for hire?";
That's when she turned on me and screamed:
";That ain't no way to treat a lady,
That ain't no way to treat a lady.";
She had a Southern smile, had a New York style,
I couldn't let her get away.
She was the girl of my dreams,
and because I was mean, I had to listen to her say
";That ain't no way to treat a lady,
That ain't no way to treat a lady.";
I had to have her bad, but she left me mad;
that ain't the way it should be.
I'm gonna find that girl, take her around the world,
I'm gonna love her 'till she screams:
";That ain't no way to treat a lady,
That ain't no way to treat a lady.";
Found myself inside an empty room
Waitin' for the beast to make a move
Ridin' through the TV air
The devil makes his playground anywhere
One day little baby
Don't you be surprised
But I'll be gone
You know that's true
Meantime all my friends are comin' down
Overshootin' exits outta town
Trapped in cans inside of traffic stacks
As the bright lights call them back
To Psycho City
Psycho City
Someday if the smoke clears from your eye
You'll recognize your helter skelter life
One day little baby
You gonna realize
Right from wrong
It'll come right to ya
Meanwhile as the band is goin' on
Double-crossin' dodges get it on
Complicatin' every little fact
Don't ever turn your back
On Psycho City
Psycho City
Someday as I make my way by song
I'll find out where I should belong
Jump my wheels right off the twisted track
'Cause I'm never goin' back
To Psycho City
Psycho City
Oh Psycho City
(Kendall, Russell, Niven)
I been hanging my life from a frayed tight wire
I been walkin' thin ice with my heels on fire
Keep racing my heart so the beat won't miss me
Still wanting a night when the stars will kiss me
I got too much time
I don't know who's alive
Never satisfied
Livin' on the edge
The edge of time
waiting for a perfect crime
Livin' on the edge
Everyone I see's got the cool cold shoulder
Just hangin' around gettin' slow and older
Like a little girl suckin' chemical cola
strung out on lies that the T.V. sold her
I got too much time
I don't know who's alive
Livin' on the edge
Edge of time
As the light calls back the shadows she rises from her chair
Puts away the past and looks into the mirror
The faces she sees so empty hardly recognised
But the tears of a heart left broken linger in her eyes
Got to find a way, some way to ease the pain
With her hand on the trigger, hand on her heart
Just one shot for love, one last shot for love, one more shot for love
She dreams of times remembered but those were better days
When the love they shared ran true and clear like the lines on an empty page
It's funny how it changes she sees how love is blind
With the nights she spends now waiting forever on her mind
Got to find a way, some way to ease the pain
She's had herself enough, she's going to have her day
Got her hand on the trigger, hand on her heart
Just one shot for love, one last shot for love, one more shot for love
Yes she feels so helpless like she's outside of herself
Visions of a life denied raging on and on inside
Got to find a way, some way to ease the pain
She's had herself enough, she's going to have her day
With her hand on the trigger, hand on her heart
Just one shot for love, one more shot for love
Got her hand on the trigger, hand on her heart
Just one shot for love, one more shot for love, one last shot for love
With a hand on her heart
With a hand on her heart
With a hand on her heart
(Kendall, Russell, Holland, Black)
Every life has a price, every fool throws the dice
Even the winners have to pay. Every dog has its day
So watch out, watch what you do.
Someone's lookin' for you
It's the law of the land. Every fire burns a hand
Every chance that you take might turn out to be your last mistake
Streetkiller
Lay down your life, you'll pay the price
Lay down your life, you're in his sights
Streetkiller
...He's lookin' for you
...He's out for your blood
...He's playing your game
Needle and Spoon
...He's hard on your arse
Streetkiller
Closing your eyes to the truth that surrounds you
Won't make life easy to take
Filling your heart with the hate that inflames you
Just makes it burn out and break
Want someone to love you?
Want someone to care?
Want someone there by your side?
But you're building walls of plaster
Building walls of bone
Now there's nowhere left to hide
No better than hell, no, the way that you feel
No better than hell, no, the way that you are
Waiting all time for a soul to embrace you
Just makes you lonely and old
Turning your back on the lover who needs you
Turns the world slowly and cold
Want someone to love you?
Want someone to care?
Want someone there by your side?
But you're living off disaster
Living on your own
While everyone's taking their sides
No better than hell, no, the way that you feel
No better than hell, no, the way that you are
Want someone to love you?
Want someone to care?
Want someone there for a friend?
But you're burning all your bridges
Burning down your home
Burning the wax at both ends
No better than hell, no, the way that you feel
No better than hell, no, the way that you are
No better than hell, no, the way that you feel
No better than hell, no, the way that you are
Verse 1:
For the times You've been right by my side
to show me the way;
You've shown Your love toward me
each and every day.
Verse 2:
I found Him to be a friend when I needed one,
found Him to be a counselor when times were hard,
He lifted my spirit when I was feeling low;
oh, oh, thank You, Lord.
Chorus:
Thank You, thank You,
thank You, thank You, Lord.
Thank You, thank You,
oh, oh, thank You, Lord.
Vamp:
You've been a friend when I needed one.
You've been a counselor when the times were hard.
You lifted my spirit when I'm feeling low;
oh, oh thank You, Lord.
Ending
Early one mornin' the sun was shinin'
I was layin' in bed
Wond'rin' if she'd changed at all
If her hair was still red
Her folks they said our lives together
Sure was gonna be rough
They never did like Mama's homemade dress
Papa's bankbook wasn't big enough
And I was standin' on the side of the road
Rain fallin' on my shoes
Heading out for the East Coast
Lord knows I've paid some dues gettin' through
Tangled up in blue
She was married when we first met
Soon to be divorced
I helped her out of a jam, I guess
But I used a little too much force
We drove that car as far as we could
Abandoned it out west
Split up on a dark sad night
Both agreeing it was best
She turned around to look at me
As I was walkin' away
I heard her say, over my shoulder
We'll meet again someday on the avenue
Tangled up in blue
I had a job in the great north woods
Working as a cook for a spell
I never did like it all that much
And one day the axe just fell
So I drifted down to New Orleans
Where I was lucky to be employed
Workin' for a while on a fishin' boat
Right outside of Delacroix
But all the while I was alone
The past was close behind
I seen a lot of women
But she never escaped my mind and I just grew
Tangled up in blue
She was workin' in a topless place
And I stopped in for a beer
I just kept lookin' at the side of her face
In the spotlight so clear
And later on the crowd thinned out
I's just about to do the same
She was standing there in back of my chair
Sayin', Jackie, don't I know your name?
I muttered somethin' underneath my breath
She studied the lines on my face
I must admit I felt a little uneasy
When she bent down to tie the laces of my shoe
Tangled up in blue
She lit a burner on the stove and offered me a pipe
I thought you'd never say hello, she said, you look like the silent type
Then she opened up a book of poems and handed it to me
Written by an Italian poet from the thirteenth century
And every one of them words rang true
And glowed like burnin' coal
Pourin' off of every page
Like it was written in my soul from me to you
Tangled up in blue
I lived with them on Montague Street
In a basement down the stairs
There was music in the cafes at night
And revolution in the air
Then he started into dealing with slaves
And something inside of him died
She had to sell everything she owned
And froze up inside
And one day finally the bottom fell out
I became withdrawn
The only thing I knew how to do
Was to keep on keepin' on like a bird that flew
Tangled up in blue
So now I'm goin' back again
I got to get to her somehow
All the people we used to know
They're an illusion to me now
Some are mathematicians
Some are carpenter's wives
Don't know how it all got started
I don't know what they're doin' with their lives
But me, I'm still on the road
Headin' for another joint
We always did feel the same
We just saw it from a different point of view
Measuring a summer's day, I only finds it slips away to grey,
The hours, they bring me pain.
*Tangerine, Tangerine, Living reflection from a dream;
I was her love, she was my queen, And now a thousand years between.
Thinking how it used to be, Does she still remember times like these?
To think of us again? And I do.
* Chorus
I know you think that you're one bad mother
Got no time for a rock 'n roll lover
You strut around like the original Queen of Sheeba
To I love you, you reply with, "See ya"
But this is how it's gonna be
You're gonna give your love to me
I know you won't come easily
But you're gonna give your love to me
This is how it's gonna be
You're gonna give your love to me
I know your life is runnin' free
But you're gonna give your love to me
You got that face for a part in a devil's dream
You got that shape from a deal with a voodoo fiend
One of a kind, there surely ain't no other
If it keeps on rainin', levee's goin' to break, (X2)
When The Levee Breaks I'll have no place to stay.
Mean old levee taught me to weep and moan, (X2)
Got what it takes to make a mountain man leave his home,
Oh, well, oh, well, oh, well.
Don't it make you feel bad
When you're tryin' to find your way home,
You don't know which way to go?
If you're goin' down South
They go no work to do,
If you don't know about Chicago.
Cryin' won't help you, prayin' won't do you no good,
Now, cryin' won't help you, prayin' won't do you no good,
When the levee breaks, mama, you got to move.
All last night sat on the levee and moaned, (X2)
Thinkin' about me baby and my happy home.
Going, going to Chicago... Going to Chicago... Sorry but I can't take you...
Going down... going down now... going down....
I've been to London, seen seven wonders. I know to trip is just to fall
I used to rock it, sometimes I'd roll it. I always knew what it was for.
There can be no denyin' that the wind 'll shake 'em down
And the flat world's flyin'. There's a new plague on the land
If we could just join hands (X3)
Traversed the planet when heaven sent me. I saw the kings who rule them all
Still by the firelight and purple moonlight. I hear the rested rivers call
And the wind is crying, from a love that won't grow cold
My lover, she is lying, on the dark side of the globe
If we could just join hands (X3)
You got me rockin' when I ought to be a-rollin'
Darlin', tell me, darlin', which way to go
You keep me rockin', baby, then you keep me stolen
Won't you tell me, darlin', which way to go... that's right
Oh how I wonder, oh how I worry and I would dearly like to know
I've all this wonder of earthly plunder will it leave us anything to show
And our time is flyin' see the candle burnin' low
Is the new world rising, from the shambles of the old
If we could just join hands.
There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
When she gets there she knows, if the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for.
Ooh, ooh, and she's buying a stairway to heaven.
There's a sign on the wall but she wants to be sure
'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings.
In a tree by the brook, there's a songbird who sings,
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it makes me wonder.
There's a feeling I get when I look to the west,
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees,
And the voices of those who standing looking.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it really makes me wonder.
And it's whispered that soon if we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason.
And a new day will dawn for those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter.
If there's a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed now,
It's just a spring clean for the May queen.
Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on.
And it makes me wonder.
Your head is humming and it won't go, in case you don't know,
The piper's calling you to join him,
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow, and did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind.
And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul.
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How everything still turns to gold.
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last.
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll.
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
Working from seven to eleven every night,
It really makes life a drag, I don't think that's right.
I've really, really been the best of fools, I did what I could.
'Cause I love you, baby, How I love you, darling, How I love you, baby,
How I love you, girl, little girl.
But baby, Since I've Been Loving You. I'm about to lose my worried mind, oh, yeah.
Everybody trying to tell me that you didn't mean me no good.
I've been trying, Lord, let me tell you, Let me tell you I really did the best I could.
I've been working from seven to eleven every night, I said It kinda makes my life a drag.
Lord, that ain't right...
Since I've Been Loving You, I'm about to lose my worried mind.
Said I've been crying, my tears they fell like rain,
Don't you hear, Don't you hear them falling,
Don't you hear, Don't you hear them falling.
Do you remember mama, when I knocked upon your door?
I said you had the nerve to tell me you didn't want me no more, yeah
I open my front door, hear my back door slam,
You must have one of them new fangled back door man.
I've been working from seven, seven, seven, to eleven every night, It kinda makes my life a drag...
Baby, Since I've Been Loving You, I'm about to lose, I'm about lose to my worried mind.
(Young, Young, Scott)
Diamonds and dust
Poor man last, rich man first
Lambourginis, caviar
Dry martinis, Shangri-la
I got a burning feeling
Deep inside of me
Let your love run
I'm going to set it free
I'm going in to sin city
I'm gonna win in sin city
The lights are bright
Through the town tonight
I'm gonna win in sin city
Ladders and snakes
Ladders give, snakes take
Rich man, poor man, beggarman, thief
Ain't got a hope in hell, that's my belief
Fingers Freddy, Diamond Jim
Get ready, I'm coming in
So spin that wheel, cut that rack
And roll those loaded dice
Bring on the dancing girls
And put the champaign on ice
All right yeah
Sippin' down shoutin' 'bout, yeah
We used to shake it out
Those days, now I remember
When anything was all right
Someone had my video
Blastin' through the radio
Neighbors screamin' out
"What the hell is going on here"
We were already gone
With a whole lot to go
When the police showed
I told 'em kiss my ass
So young, livin' to die
And I was on my own
Two wrongs making a right
I was rollin' stoned
Rich is building houses
Gary's doing hard time
Jamie's in the desert
And Brently bought a gun
I saw an old photograph
All that I could do was laugh
And scratch my head in wonder
Where did all the days go?
We were already gone
With nowhere to go, oh no
I was singing my songs
With a heart and soul
So young, I was livin' to die
I was rollin' stoned
Two wrongs making a right
I was rollin' stoned, yeah
It's a wonder I'm alive
Can't believe I ever made it through that ride
Rockin' all over the night
I was rollin' stoned, yeah yeah
So young, livin' to die
I was rollin' stoned
Two wrongs making a right
I was rollin' stoned, yeah
Damn good to be alive
Wonder how I ever managed to survive
Rockin' all over the night, I was rollin' stoned
Stoned, stoned, stoned, yeah
Sippin' down, shoutin' 'bout
Yeah we used to shake it out
Rich is building houses
Gary's doing hard time
Brently bought a gun
Where did all the days go
Rollin' stoned
(Kendall, Niven)
Adrift out on an open sea
A life raft seekin' company
Sailing on a sea insane
Rolling with the waves of pain
Chance determines destiny
Tide can be the enemy
When the moon is shining bright
It hangs there like a becon light
Your're looking for a place to stay
A place to leave another day
Water leaves no trace behind
Of all the ways your life unwinds
So sail away
Sail away
Sail away
Sail away
As you come you come alone
All you are is what you know
Dependent on your memory
Remember who you used to be
Reason is a raging wind
Beating on your weathered skin
Confusion is the tidal flow
Pulls you like an undertow
Adrift out on a sea of tears
Navigating by your fears
Searching in the stars above
A way to find your isles of love
So sail away
Sail away
Sail away
Sail away
A sea of faces flow by me
Islands of identity
Isolated constantly
No ones's where he ought to be
So sail away
Sail away
Sail away
Sail away
Close the door, put out the light.
You know they won't be home tonight.
The snow falls hard and don't you know?
The winds of Thor are blowing cold.
They're wearing steel that's bright and true
They carry news that must get through.
They choose the path where no-one goes.
They hold no quarter.
Walking side by side with death, The devil mocks their every step
The snow drives back the foot that's slow, The dogs of doom are howling more
They carry news that must get through, To build a dream for me and you
They choose the path where no-one goes.
They hold no quarter. They ask no quarter.
The pain, the pain without quarter.
They ask no quarter.
The dogs of doom are howling more!
(Page, Plant)
It's been a long time since I rock an' rolled.
It's been a long time since I did the stroll.
Ooh, let me get it back, let me get it back, let me get it back,
Mm-baby where I come from.
It's been a long time, been a long time, been a long
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time. Yes it has.
It's been a long time since the book of love.
I can't count the tears of a life with no love.
A-carry me back, carry me back, carry me back,
Mm-baby where I come from. Whoah~ooh~oh ~whoah~ooh~ooh~hohh.
It's been a long time, been a long time, been a long
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time.
Ahhh-ahh~ahh ahh~ahh.
Hohhh, it seems so long since we walked in the moonlight,
A-makin' vows that just couldn't work right.
Hahh-yeah! Open your arms, open your arms, open your arms,
Mm-baby let my love come runnin' in. Let it!
It's been a long time, been a long time, been a long
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time.
Yeah~hey.
Yeah~ay~ay.
Yeah hey.
Yeah hey.
Ooh-yeah, ooh~ooh-yeah.
Ooh-yeah, ooh~ooh-yeah.
It's been a long time, been a long time, been a long
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time.
Leaves are falling all around, It's time I was on my way.
Thanks to you, I'm much obliged for such a pleasant stay.
But now it's time for me to go. The autumn moon lights my way.
For now I smell the rain, and with it pain, and it's headed my way.
Sometimes I grow so tired, but I know I've got one thing I got to do...
*Ramble On, And now's the time, the time is now, to sing my song.
I'm goin' 'round the world, I got to find my girl, on my way.
I've been this way ten years to the day, Ramble On,
Gotta find the queen of all my dreams.
Got no time to for spreadin' roots, The time has come to be gone.
And to' our health we drank a thousand times, it's time to Ramble On.
* Chorus
Mine's a tale that can't be told, my freedom I hold dear.
How years ago in days of old, when magic filled the air.
T'was in the darkest depths of Mordor, I met a girl so fair.
But Gollum, and the evil one crept up and slipped away with her, her, her....yeah.
* Chorus
Gonna ramble on, sing my song. Gotta keep-a-searchin' for my baby...
Gonna work my way, round the world. I can't stop this feelin' in my heart
Gotta keep searchin' for my baby. I can't find my bluebird!
(Ralphs)
Walkin' down this rocky road
Wonderin' where my life is leadin'
Rollin' on to the bitter end
Findin' out along the way
What it takes to keep love living
You should know how it feels, my friend
Ooh, I want you to stay
Ooh, I want you today
I'm ready for love
Oh baby, I'm ready for love
Ready for love
Oh baby, I'm ready for love
Now I'm on my feet again
Better things are bound to happen
All my dues surely must be paid
Many miles and many tears
Times were hard but now they're changing
You should know that I'm not afraid
Ooh, I want you to stay
Ooh, I want you today
I'm ready for love
Oh baby, I'm ready for love
Ready for love
Oh baby, I'm ready for love
Oh, I'm ready for your love
I get up in the morning, just to work all day.
I never had no vacation, and what's a holiday?
I'm tired of workin' 9 to 5. Sombody give me a break.
Caught up in this rat race, I've got no time to waste.
I want out (you can't make it)
I want out (no way)
I want out (so don't mistake it)
It's all that you've got and your not gonna leave it, no way.
There's no way.
Maybe I'll buy me a new car.
Maybe I'll hop on a plane.
Get off in some foreign station,
Somwhere that don't look the same.
You're stuck in a rut. No, no, you can't give it up.
There's no way.
(Lardie, Niven)
Lit a candle and I
Set it on the wall
Let the wax like teardrops fall
And then I wonder why
I used to dream on baby
Dream that we could have it all
I see now love for you
Was what you had to do
You change your mind
Like you change your dress
I thought I knew you everyway
Saw the child, the woman plain as day
I thought I knew myself
But now I come to find
Love is blind and I'm the lovin' kind
Bought a diamond and I
Set it on your hand
Introduced you to the band
And now I hear them say
You've been a bad girl baby
You don't seem to understand
Just for the social whirl
You play the party girl
Now you drink your wine
Oh baby time to forget
You made a game of love
What were you thinkin' of
It takes a heartbeat baby
To say goodbye
(Kendall, Russell, Niven)
Howling night of bitter winds
This old house is burnin'
Reasons why forever retold
and no one is learning
I stand in the strange light
in a world with no eyes
Miss a turn in the midnight rain
never come this way again
When loves light deserts you
never change your heart
When lightning strikes and love is gone
don't let it break your heart
Don't let it turn you 'round
so people mistake you
this worlds gonna still burn down
no matter what it comes to
Return what you're given
then be on your way
Move on. Be strong
You gotta carry on
Never change your heart
On the horizon there's a storm on the rise
Black seas are forming there's terror in the skies
My life has been a river headed for a fall
These days I can never child make sense of it all
My world is hanging on a line
Here in my world, my world
Searching for some peace in time
My world is darker every day
Here in my world, my world
I can't find a meaning in the season of the time
I'm standing on the edge waiting for a sign
But I just can't go on this way
I don't believe I'll stay, just won't stay
My world is hanging on a line
Here in my world, my world
Looking for some love this time
My world is smaller every day
Here in my world, my world
My world my world
My world is hanging on a line
Here in my world, my world
Searching for some peace in time
My world is colder every day
Here in my world, my world
My world my world
My world my world
This is my world
This is my world
Wheels keep on rolling, mindless of our flight
Our sounds like in slumber, we head into the night
The city’s so familiar, like a long lost friend
With open arms that shelter me and bring me home to them
And we’re miles away
Always miles away, yeah
Rolling on down the highway
Living for the day
Seems I’m always miles away
Just outside of Memphis, where rock n’ roll began
We say a prayer for Elvis, then on the road again
The mind begins to wander as memories unfold
The music on the radio reminds us of our homes
And we’re miles away
Always miles away, yeah
Rolling on down the highway
Living for the day
Seems I’m always miles away
Sometimes it seems the road will never end
Sometimes it seems my only friend, yeah, yeah, yeah
What will tomorrow tell, I just can’t seem to tell
Cos I’m always miles away, miles away
The one I left at home took his first steps today
I watch him on the video before I leave to play
Cos we’re miles away
Always miles away
Rolling on down the highway
Living for the day
Seems I’m always miles and
Miles away
Always miles away, oh yeah
All of my life is rolling
I’m living just to play
Seems I’m always miles away
Yeah, seems I’m always miles away
Seems I’m always miles away
My heart is empty like cold open ground
Where ghosts and memories follow you round
Replacing old friends no more to be found
All gone their ways with the new stars in town
All of their laughter has drifted away
Gone with the wind like yesterday's song
Gone with the wind like yesterday's song
Gone, gone with the wind, oh
There's no sign of the lover who pins butterflies
No sign of fair-weather, no sweet soundin' lies
Now I'm a stranger, my eyes are set free
Like a man on a mountain, oh how I can see?
All the ways illusions deceive
In a city of prayers where no one believes
When all of your dreams have scattered away
Gone with the wind like yesterday's song
Gone with the wind like yesterday's songs
With a purple umbrella and a fifty cent hat,
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.
Missus cool rides out in her aged Cadillac.
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.
*Come on, babe on the round about, ride on the merry-go-round,
We all know what your name is, so you better lay your money down.
Alimony, alimony payin' your bills,
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.
When your conscience hits, you knock it back with pills.
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.
* Chorus
Tellin' tall tales of how it used to be.
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.
With the butler and the maid and the servants three.
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.
Nobody hears a single word you say.
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.
But you keep on talkin' till your dyin' day.
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.
* Chorus
Livin', Lovin', She's just a woman.
(Kendall, Lardie, Niven, Russell)
Free me from this restless curse
That follows me through the dark
Bring back an innocence
A strength to fill my heart
In this world of emptiness
That I have come to know
Love is only a lie
Only a lie, only a lie
Love is only a lie
Only a lie, only a lie
When the promise is broken
When your eyes open
Then the wind whispers and sighs
Love is a lie
My bird of paradise
Colored in blues and gold
She's got a soul on ice
And calculation cold
This bird of avarice
Has left me now I know
Love is only a lie
Only a lie, only a lie
Love is only a lie
Only a lie, only a lie
When the promise is broken
When your eyes are open
When the wind whispers and sighs
Love is a lie
So breathe a last and broken sigh
Oh silent night come now to me
And if I dream of light come down
And be with me and in the dark we will not see
Love is only a lie
Only a lie, only a lie
Love is only a lie
Only a lie, only a lie
When the promise is broken
When your eyes open
When the wind whispers and cries
Love is only a lie, only a lie
(Dewar, Trower)
Lady love, I heard a voice and it soothed me
Lady love, a simple tune and it moved me
Move me and sooth me
Leading me home
Too late for me now
Lady love
Lady love, a mans a fool to be leaving
Dreams of love, passing by like the seasons
Maybe I'll wake up
Oh tell me I will
Find you there waiting
Lady love
Lady love, I need some warm and tender
nights of love, sweet and fine to remember
Maybe tomorrow, your fever will find me
Waiting for me now
Lady love
Well, I found a new way
Not the way the old folks tried
Well, I'm pushing harder
Got my sights set for the sky
I live my life on the run
I do my time on my own
If you get too close
You can steal my heart
So you want me back now
Sorry, baby, I can't stay
You had your chance, girl
But you threw it threw it away
I tried to make you mine
You wouldn't give me the time
I don't want to feel that pain any more
The last time, the last time, the last time I fall
The last time, the last time, the last time I fall
Well I'm on my way
I've got no time to lose today
I tried to make you mine
You wouldn't give me the time
I don't want to feel that pain any more
Pain any more
The last time, the last time, the last time I fall
The last time, the last time, the last time I fall
The last time, the last time, the last time I fall
The last time, the last time, the last time I fall
The last time, the last time, the last time I fall
The last time, the last time, the last time I fall
The last time, the last time, the last time
The last time, it's the last time that I'll fall
And if you feel that you can't go on
And your will's sinking low
Just believe and you can't go wrong
In the light you will find the road
You'll find the road
Hey, ooh, did you ever believe
That I could leave you standin' out in the cold
Hey, baby, I know how it feels
'Cause I have slipped through
To the very depths of my soul
Oh, baby, I just want to show you what I'd give you
In case you ever been on the road
Now, listen, oh, as I was and would do for you, too
Honey, as you would do for me
I would share your load, let me share load
Ooh, let me share you load
And if you feel that you can't go on
In th light you will find the road
Hey, oh the winds of change my blow around you
But that will always be so
Oh wo, when love is pain it can devour you
If you are ever alone
I'll share your load, I will share your load
Baby, let me, oh let me, in the light
Everybody needs a light, oh yeah, oh baby
Everybody, everybody, everybody sure 'nuff they do
Light, light, light, in the light (Repeat)
(Kendall, Lardie, Niven, Russell)
I don't want the rap that yer layin'
Don't give me no abuse
I don't want no motormouth jivin'
Another lame excuse
I don't want my head to keep sayin'
Oh baby what's the use
I don't want no patter, no way
I want you
I don't want no mommasan preyin'
To strip me to the bone
I don't want no hustle today
Leave my vibe alone
I don't want to worry 'bout nothin'
There's nothin' I must own
I don't want to deal that way
I want you
I love lovin'
Oh yeah, lovin' is fine
Why no love
Why waste your time
Gotta give it someway
Can ya hold out alone
Ooo just a little lovin'
It's alright let it go
I don't want another dog makin'
Another big pretense
I don't wanna be brought down
On a capital offense
I don't want no pressure drop baby
Don't make it so intense
I don't want no promise, no way
I want you
It's only lovin' baby
Get it back down the road
Yes it comes back
Like a magic motherload
Make a lovin' man
Make him know it's alright
Ooo, that givin' love
Gonna get us thru the night
I don't want the song you keep playin'
All lovers are insane
I don't want my heart to be breakin'
I want you
I don't want the trouble of lovin'
And here it comes again
I don't want the game you like playin'
I want you
Slow blues can turn her on
But let me tell you she's a whole lotta woman
When the band rocks on watch her move for the backstage door
The show may be over now she's gonna get some more
She says, "I know what I want, I know just what I need
You got nowhere to run I'm gonna get you", she says
"You got nowhere to hide, I'm gonna getcha
I'm gonna get you down"
Now it's late, oh but she don't care
We got a whole lotta waiting so we can make it next year
Yeah she knows, she knows it's hit and run
But she wants to ride a rocket into the midnight sun
She says, "I know what I want, I know just what I need
You got nowhere to run I'm gonna get you", she says
"You got nowhere to hide I'm gonna gonna getcha
I'm gonna get you down"
She do what she wants
She gets just what she needs
"You got nowhere to run I'm gonna get you", she says
"You got nowhere to hide I'm gonna gonna getcha"
You got nowhere to run I'm gonna get you", she says
"You got nowhere to hide I'm gonna gonna getcha
I'm gonna get you down, get, get, get you down, oh yeah
(Kendall, Russell, Niven, Lardie)
I had a woman, gave her all of my lovin'
Gave her all that I had
Kinda' woman she could make you believe her
Nothing's gonna go bad
Took awhile, and all the hurtin'
Since she left and went away
Behind her smile though I can't be certain
But I thought I heard her say
My heart's a hunter
And love is a loser's game
My heart's a hunter
And love is a loser's game
Little baby I won't give ya no heartaches
I won't give ya no pain
Sweet little darlin' can't ya see what is comin'
Cause ya know me by name
Used to be when I was a child
I thought lovin' should be free
And it's so hard to be reconciled
That ain't the way it oughta be
It's only lovin' when she's gone and she's left ya
It goes to show it's always something
That I felt when I met ya
It comes and it goes
I ride alone tonight
So bittersweet
I took a chance
I tried to love her
Someone whispered her name
Heartbreaker
You might notice if you look
I'm getting loose tonight
Well I'm a man of action
It gives me the right
To live it to the limit
Or rip it to the ground
If you're looking for trouble
You're going to find me around
There ain't enough tomorrows
I'm living for today
So come on and love me
Get your shot tonight
Don't bother loosening
I like it tight
I'll take you any time of night or day
But don't get used to that, I never stay
Hard and cold, giving you a warning
Hard and cold, your turn tonight
Hard and cold, it's my war on these streets tonight
Hard and cold, giving you a warning
Hard and cold, your turn tonight
Hard and cold, it's my war on these streets tonight
Hard and cold
Hard and cold
Spent my days with a woman unkind, Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine.
Made up my mind to make a new start, Going To California with an aching in my heart.
Someone told me there's a girl out there with love in her eyes and flowers in her hair.
Took my chances on a big jet plane, never let them tell you that they're all the same.
The sea was red and the sky was grey, wondered how tomorrow could ever follow today.
The mountains and the canyons started to tremble and shake
as the children of the sun began to awake.
Seems that the wrath of the Gods
Got a punch on the nose and it started to flow;
I think I might be sinking.
Throw me a line if I reach it in time
I'll meet you up there where the path
Runs straight and high.
To find a queen without a king,
They say she plays guitar and cries and sings... la la la
Ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn
Tryin' to find a woman who's never, never, never been born.
Standing on a hill in my mountain of dreams,
Telling myself it's not as hard, hard, hard as it seems.
(Kendall, Niven, Russell)
Been thinkin' now what I should do
I gotta decide
Waitin' here on the likes o' you
My Thursday child
I'll face the music that I hear in my head
As the night rolls by
Song of a drifter lost to the road
Tryin' to reach for the sky
Gotta get on the road
Gotta long way to go
Gotta get on home
Gotta get on the road
Gotta long way to go
Gotta get on home
So nothin' lasts n' I can't change
Been this way too long
Love burns so fast when you see the flame
Y'gotta let it shine on
God only knows it's hard to find
Ooo a place to belong
And as you grow to find your way
Ya have to move on
So I go my way like a shadow at night
Like a name on the wind
I'll sail away to an ocean of love
Oh let the tide roll in
Gotta get on the road
Gotta long way to go
Gotta get back home
Gotta get on the road
Gotta long way to go
Gotta get back home
Like a river runnin' outta the snow
Down to the ocean I'll go
Like a river with a soul of its own
I gotta let my love flow
I don't want to face the day the day, today
Long nights leave me stranded
Black visions, danger signs
No love- I need protection
Feels like I'm on a production line
Daggers of dawn, cold hearted day
Why does if have to be morning?
Cover my head, stayin' in bed
Too late the luckless warning
Outside the screaming city
Red lights, hungry eyes
Sucks like a space invader
The vacuum of its lies
Stealin' my strength, stealin' my time
It's raining in a world of traders
Let me keep on sleeping
Forget that I'm alone
One day of faceless living-
is twenty-four hours too long
I don't want to face the day
Give me the night, it's more forgiving
Hold back the light from my eyes
Please stay invisible darkness
can't see the tears that I cry
I know it's comin', loaded with nothing
Trapped in a tunnel of time
I don't want to face the day
There she goes, Miss Heartattack
That girl is gone, ain't comin' back
Love we had, call it yesterday
But now is now, today's today
And when the sun is shinin'
I still feel the same
And when the rain is comin' down
I'm hurtin' with the pain
I've been here before
No love, no way, no more
Am I just a fool to fall for love
Put my heart in gunnysack
Dress it up in black on black
Take it down to Congo Square
Raise it from the dead down there
And when the sun is shinin'
I will feel no pain
And when that rain is pourin' down
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You don't have to go oh oh oh oh oh
You don't have to go oh oh oh oh oh
Baby please don't go.
Ay ay ay ay ay ay
All those tears I cry ay ay ay ay ay
All those tears I cry ay ay ay ay ay
Baby please don't go.
*CHORUS
When I read the letter you wrote, it made me mad mad mad
When I read the news that it brought me, t made me sad sad sad.
But I still love you so, I can't let you go
I love you- ooh baby I love you.
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Every breath I take oh oh oh oh oh
Every move I make oh oh oh oh oh
Baby please don't go.
Ay ay ay ay ay ay
You hurt me to my soul ay ay ay ay ay
You hurt me to my soul ay ay ay ay ay
Darling please don't go.
CHORUS
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You don't have to go oh oh oh oh oh
You don't have to go oh oh oh oh oh
(Baby please don't go)
(Jupp)
Leavin' the show
Still feel alive
Want a place to go now
Round about five
Down to the doctor
Down to the doctor
Come on down to the doctor
Make me feel good all night
Everybody needs a shot of R 'n B
So come on down to my surgery
Down to the doctor
Down to the doctor
Down to the doctor
Make you feel good all night
Down to the doctor
Down to the doctor
Down on the doctor
Make me feel good all night
Come on here baby
Won't do you no harm
I just want to shoot
Some rock 'n roll in your arm
Down to the doctor
Down to the doctor
Down to the doctor
Make you feel good all night
(Kendall, Lardie, Niven)
Hey, hey, momma, well my box don't play
My strings is rusted, they're all frayed away
Hey, hey what now, my drive is shot
I'm all tied up inside a misery knot
Ain't no dancin', got no tango feet
I'm jammin' traffic down on my love street
Now I don't know what I ought to do
I've lost the lock on my groove with you
So what now honey, so I'm screwed up too
But I can't fit without my piece of you
Without your touch I won't pull through
I burn a fever like a hoodoo stew
So doctor me, baby, down to my soul
I need love to break its stranglehold
Doctor me baby, down to my soul
I need a love to bring me out of the cold
Well there ain't no words that I know to say
To make it better lord in any way
Sister, Sister, my need is you
This heart is hopin' you can treat it too
See my blood's on fire, yet I feel so cold
Oh baby touch me, make this feelin' go
Can't you see what you need to do
I feel better when I'm touched by you
So doctor me baby, down to my soul
Oh little baby, don'cha slip away
Your love in motion takes my pain away
Young man in Morocco
Buys a diamond ring
Takes it across the water
Just to see what luck it brings
Young girl dressed in midnight
Sets his blood on fire
You can't buy my soul with gold
But my heart is up for hire
I can't shake it
Drivin' in your Fleetwood
To the sports of kings today
Top hat cane and ascot
That's the game you play
Jumpin' from a window
Shirt half off your back
Better take the elevator
And find another track
I can't shake it
I gotta a monkey on my back
Hey, hey, baby
No more lies
Hey, hey, baby
This is the big goodbye
Remember baby
Dreams we shared
We ran with crazies
Lived on solid air
Do you remember lady
Who you used to be
Did you become the stranger
Baby you or me
I guess you were just tryin'
To keep a love alive
But baby all your lyin'
Just took it for a ride
A man of constant sorrow
Under an evil eye
Oh baby when it's over
The truth is first to die
Oh, I believe in magic
Fire that binds a band
Baby there's no magic
In hidin' sleight of hand
I guess that I was tryin'
To keep myself alive
But then there's no denyin'
I was losin' all my pride
Hey, hey, baby
No more lies
Hey, hey, baby
This is the big goodbye
Hey, hey, baby
No more lies
Hey, hey, baby
This is the big goodbye
I guess you were just tryin'
To buy some piece of mind
But baby there's no buyin'
Eyesight for the blind
Hey, hey, baby
No more lies
Hey, hey, baby
This is the big goodbye
Hey, hey, baby
No more lies
Hey, hey, baby
This is the big goodbye
Hey, hey, baby
No more lies
Hey, hey, baby
(Cervenka, Doe)
Drive by my house late at night,
you can see it from the freeway above,
No silhouette, but a light left on,
burnin' there for love, burnin' there for love.
Smoke is risin' from the black,
comin' out my back door.
I'm inside, sound asleep, a cigarette on the floor,
burnin' there for love, burnin' there for love.
Well, I can still remember a couple of years ago,
when the smoke and flame from our name,
was a burnin' house of love, burnin' house of love.
a burnin' house of love...
Burnin' house of love, burnin' house of love.
The rusty nail over our front door,
is where I hung our tears in the rain.
I threw that horseshoe into the weeds,
I seen what love can bring, I seen what love can bring.
Now you're in your bed and I'm in mine,
on either side of town;
I think I might take a little ride,
and burn your love house down,
like a burnin'
The Angel Song
Great White
Fallen angel
Ripped and bruised
Think on better days
Life is rude
Treats you bad
Tears your wings away
Raise your eyes to star and sky
Believe in fly aways
Take your dreams, your broken schemes
And sweep the past away
Fly lonely angel
High above these streets of fire
Fly lonely angel
Far away from mad desire
Hollywood ain't paved with gold
It's just a trick of light
Sunset falls on stars of old
And blinds you with its light
A spider's web of tangled lives
Lays stretched across the hills
From distances it's glistening
Like El Dorado's halls
The dream was light
And fragrant nights
But how were you to know
The streets are hard
They're mean and scared
Where only fools find gold
Fly lonely angel
Spread your wings another way
Fly lonely angel
Find a better way
A better day
From: "Susan Gornati"
Should I fall out of love, my fire in the light
To chase a feather in the wind
Within the glow that weaves a cloak of delight
There moves a thread that has no end.
For many hours and days that pass ever soon
the tides have caused the flame to dim
At last the arm is straight, the hand to the loom
Is this to end or just begin?
* Chorus: All of my love, all of my love, All of my love to you. (repeat)
The cup is raised, the toast is made yet again
One voice is clear above the din
Proud Aryan one word, my will to sustain
For me, the cloth once more to spin
Chorus
Yours is the cloth, mine is the hand that sews time
his is the force that lies within
Ours is the fire, all the warmth we can find
He is a feather in the wind
Chorus
[Instrumental]
(music & lyrics: Floyd Rose and K.J.)
She was just sixteen, she was so sweet and clean
she walked just like she know where she'd been.
She set my blood on fire, I said ";Are you for hire?";
That's when she turned on me and screamed:
";That ain't no way to treat a lady,
that ain't no way to treat a lady.";
She had a Southern smile, had a New York style,
I couldn't let her get away.
She was the girl of my dreams,
and because I was mean, I had to listen to her say
I had to have her bad, but she left me mad;
that ain't the way it should be.
I'm gonna find that girl, take her around the world,
I'm gonna love her 'till she screams...
I wake in the night
to find you on my mind
Deep in a dream
you'll always be
until the end of time
I look in your eyes
they touch my soul
My love is hard to hide
I'm never alone when we're apart
I feel you by my side
And here in my heart
where no one else will ever be
I know who you are
so lock the door
and throw away the key
Save all your love
Save your love for me
When I'm alone at night
you're all I see
I wake from a dream
and see you by my side
How could I belong to someone else
when holdin' you feels so right?
And here in my heart
where no one else will ever be
We've made it so far
so lock the door
and throw away the key, yeah
Save all your love
Save your love for me
When I'm alone at night
you're all I see
Save all your love
Save your love for me
Don't turn your back on me
You're all I need (I need)
Save all your love
(save all your love)
Save your love
(baby save all your love)
Come the mornin' don't ya wake me
I'll be dreamin' that I'm free
Come the daybreak don't ya shake me
send me back to misery
Cause I'm dealin' with a devil
with no help from above
I'm stealin' with the devil
through this house of broken love
Takin' chances with you baby
I saw something in your eyes
And though no one else could blame me
there were signs I shoulda recognized
Now I'm dealin' with a devil
with no help from above
I'm sleepin' with the devil
in this house of broken love
If you don't wanna lose my lovin'
use it constantly
If it's gonna be lies, suspicious eyes
baby oh baby set me free
When the night falls and she's leavin'
ooh the moon shines cold and grey
Hear my heartbeat yeah yeah hear my weepin'
pain and sorrow's here to stay
I begged you baby help me
but you turned your back on me
You didn't even listen
you should have set me free
Now I'm leavin' with the devil
gonna leave this search for love
Leavin' with the devil
Young boy, a hard, gin, ride
On the loose again
Live fast to play both sides
I'm out to win
I'm no loser
I have nothing to lose
My life ain't easy
But it's mine to use
Raised on the streets
I know
To get what you want
You gotta take control
I'm on the run, bad boys
I'm on the loose, bad boys
I'm on my way, I've paid my dues
Pull of the trigger, time starts to crawl
Two lives have ended
When the hammer falls
Raised on the streets
I know
To get what you want
You gotta take control
The lost years were long
Each night was cold
The way I felt
Feel the snow
I've done my time
Paid what I owed
Don't want those walls
Of steel and stone
I put myself behind the wall
So many years to go by
So many tears can fill your eyes
So many fears to lock behind the door
So you drift away
And yet another day
Day goes by
Empty as before
I'll be there
Come the mornin' light
Waitin' there
I'll wait for you
She only needs someone
She only needs some time
She only needs someone
To stay this time
She's waiting for love to come
She waits there on her own
She's waiting for someone
To get it right this time
So many days drift by
Oh, there's too many ways to slowly die
How may shadows fade across the wall
Baby, soon the day will come
You may find someone
Only now
Lonely evermore
She's still there
Come the morning light
She's waiting here
She waits for you
She only needs someone
She only needs some time
She only needs someone
To stay, stay this time
She's waiting for love to come
She waits there on her own
She's waiting for someone
There's always more than meets the eye
Sometimes a smile can hide a lie
Learnt me the hard way, don't it show
So listen up and you will know
Baby's got a set of wheels
She knocks me off my feet
Ooh, she's got me burnin'
Cruisin' down the street
I gotta have that girl to ease my achin' love
Oh, won'tcha take me for a ride
She says, "I gotta steal her stars from above"
She says, "I gotta did her diamonds from the mine
Before she'll, now that's cold hearted lovin'"
Now papa told me what to do
Go find a love, pure and true
I know how lovin' ought to be
Hey girl, whatcha see in me?
Baby's got me scratchin' like a dog outside her door
Ooh, she's got me slavin' and I can't take no
More, more, more, more
Every day I wake to find
Empty arms, shuttered blinds
No-one holding to my side
Laying in my lonely bed
Confused about the things we said
Nothing’s straight in my mind
Can’t stand waiting, anticipating
Being here without you
Waiting for love
I’m waiting for love
A prisoner in an ivory tower
Stranded in my darkest hour
All the broken bridge of sighs
If it’s true then love has lied
If it’s true my heart will cry
No-one else can make it right
Can’t stand waiting, anticipating
Being here without you
If only I could see you
My heart will always need you
Here I stand, heart in hand for you
Waiting for love, waiting for love
Waiting for love, I’m just waiting for your love
Can’t stand waiting, anticipating
Here I stand, heart in hand
Waiting on you
I’m just waiting for your love
Well I’m waiting for your love
Waiting for your love
Now I’m waiting
I need it, I need it
Waiting for love
Oh your love
Now give it, give me your love
Fallen angel ripped and bruised
think on better days
Life is rude, treats you bad
tears your wings away
Raise your eyes to star and sky
believe in fly aways
Take your dreams, your broken schemes
and sweep the past away
Fly lonely angel
high above these streets of fire
Fly lonely angel
far away from mad desire
Hollywood ain't paved with gold
it's just a trick of light
Sunset falls on stars of old
and blinds you with its light
A spiders web of tangled lives
lays stretched across the hills
From distances it's glistening
like Eldorado's halls
Fly lonely angel
high above these streets of fire
Fly lonely angel
leave behind the mad desire
(instrumental)
The dream was light
and fragrant nights
But how were you to know?
The streets are hard
they're mean and scarred
where only fools find gold
Fly lonely angel
high above these streets of fire
Fly lonely angel
leave behind the mad desire
Fly lonely angel
spread your wings another way
Fly lonely angel
find a better way
Bye New York, so long Philly
Hollywood your Wacko City
Chicago got just too damn windy for me
Frisco's fine apart from that line
New Orleans is just a good time
And southern belles boy
Suddenly ring my chimes, yeah
But my feet are achin' to feel the sound
Of those Golden Town
(I call it home, man)
We call 'em, South Bay Cities
Only place I call my home, my home
(Right down in)
South Bay Cities
Sweetest life I've ever known
If you can't find me baby
Well, that breeze has gone
And blown me home
(Right down home, come on)
Well, big old sun and cool sea breezes
Roller girls ain't no teases
I know she'll do just what she pleases for me
Ain't no stoppin' the rain tree rockin'
After hours one stop shoppin'
And Blotz is always totally out of his mind
And my dream is sleepin'
Right in the arms of those Golden Town
(Talking about boys)
Talking about, South Bay Cities
Only place I call my home
You know there?s South Bay Cities
That?s the sweetest life I?ve ever known
And If you can?t find me baby
That breeze has gone and blown me home
(C'mon play like you know it boy, ha, ha)
We call ?em South Bay Cities
That?s the only place we call our home
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Ridin? South Bay Cities
That?s sweetest life we?ve ever known
(Known known known)
Lord if you can?t find me baby
That breeze has gone and blown me home
C?mon, I said, South Bay Cities
(Alright)
I?m talkin? about, South Bay Cities
Now if you can?t find me momma
Let the world be still tonight
Let the fire be the only light
Draw the curtain, pull down the shade
In easy arms, we'll lay
So come on lady, now close your eyes
Let the madness pass on by
Loosen up your golden hair
Stroke away my every care
There's no comfort in strangers
That I can't find right here
Layin' down in the arms of Sister Mary
Will her lovin' ever last?
Layin' down in the arms of Mother Mary
Let the world drift past
For a moment, a perfect love
Pure and silent, like a star above
Never mind 'bout tomorrow's fears
Peace of mind is here
Outside's a world of strangeness
So I will stay right here
Layin' down in the arms of Sister Mary
Will her lovin' ever last?
Layin' down in the arms of Mother Mary
Nothin' more to ask
Let her lovin' come to you
Let her lovin' come to you
Oh, her love will come to you
And bring you home, yeah
Alright, alright
Outside's a world of strangers
So I will stay right here
Layin' down in the arms of Sister Mary
Will her lovin' ever last?
Layin' down in the arms of Mother Mary
Nothin' more to ask
Layin' down in the arms of Sister Mary
Will her lovin' ever last?
Layin' down in the arms of Mother Mary
Let the world drift past
Sometimes I wonder how I'm gonna pay the rent
All I do is work my fingers to the bone
No time to rest, no doubt I think I'm a fool
I used to think I couldn't get out of this
Stuck in a race car out of control
Man I was doin' 'bout one O five, then I met you
And then I blinked
Oh yeah taught me to think
I owe it all to you
My my rain
You got me singin' along to the radio
You nailed my brain
I call you Saint Lorraine
You put out the trash, cleaned up my living room
Took me to bed, now I'll never be the same
Brought out the man that must have been hidin' oh yeah
Yeah there's two kinds of lovers one that takes and one that gives
Sometimes I shudder thinkin' how I've been used
I found my rhythm, you'll never catch me singing no blues oh no
Sometimes I think
'Bout how you call me with a wink
I give it all to you
My my rain
You got me singin' along to the radio
You nailed my brain
I call you Saint Lorraine
My my rain
You got me rockin' along I'll never let you go
You took my pain
I call you Saint Lorraine
Yes I do, yes I do
Oh and then you call me with a wink
Oh I'll never let you go
I, I, I, oh I'm rockin' all night long
Sometimes I wonder how I'm going to pay the rent
I used to think I'll never get out of this
And then I blinked and you took me out of that
My my rain
You got me singin' along to the radio
You nailed my brain
I call you Saint Lorraine
Thank you very much Lorraine
You got me rockin' along I'll never let you go
You took my pain
I call you Saint Lorraine
Oh yeah
Saint Lorraine, Saint Lorraine, Saint Lorraine
Sweet little baby, you don't have to go
Little baby, tell me you won't go
We'd be so good together if we had the time
Bein' alone's a nowhere state of mind
Lovin' ain't no crime, oh no
I see your man ain't here, he don't care
The way of the night has gone, we'll move on
Got to find a way to face another day
I search the world for someone I'll never find
Someone who ain't the hurtin' kind
If you stay the night, oh yeah
We'll make the wrong seem right, so come on now
Rock me, rock me, roll me through the night
Rock me, rock me, roll me through the night
Rock me, rock me, roll me through the night
We'll burn in love tonight
Sweet little baby, oh, don't you go, you ain't so innocent, I know
I know your heart's like mine, oh yeah
And I will find the time to make you mine
And if your love goes bad, if it makes you sad
I'll be back for more at your door
Rock me, rock me, roll me through the night
Rock me, rock me, roll me through the night
Rock me, rock me, roll me through the night
Before the mornin' light we'll burn with love tonight
Burn with love tonight
And when your man don't care, I will be there
Still be lovin' real good love so baby now
Rock me, rock me, roll me through the night
Rock me, rock me, roll me through the night
Rock me, rock me, roll me through the night
There's no wrong or right, we'll burn with love
Rock me, rock me, roll me through the night
Rock me, rock me, roll me through the night
Rock me, rock me, roll me through the night
There's nothing left to do but make sweet love to you
Well the times are gettin' hard
for you little girl
I'm a-hummin' and a-strummin'
all over God's world
You can't remember when
you got your last meal
And you don't know
just how a woman feels
You didn't know what
rock-n-roll was
Until you met my drummer
on a grey tour bus
I got there in the nick of time
before he got his hands
across your state line, yeah
Now it's the middle of the night
on the open road
And the heater don't work
and it's oh so cold
You're lookin' tired
you're lookin' kinda beat
The rhythm of the street
sure knocks you off your feet
You didn't know how rock-n-roll looked
until you caught your sister
with the guys from the group
Halfway home in the parking lot
by the look in her eye
she was giving what she got
(chorus)
I said my, my, my
I'm once bitten twice shy baby
My, my, my
I'm once bitten twice shy baby
My, my, my
I'm once bitten twice shy baby
Oh woman you're a mess
gonna die in your sleep
There's blood on my amp
and my Les Paul's beat
Can't keep you home you're messin' around
My best friend told me
you're the best lick in town
You didn't know that rock-n-roll burned
so you bought a candle
and you lived and you learned
You got the rhythm
You got the speed
Mama's little baby
likes it short and sweet
(chorus)
Alright
(instrumental)
I didn't know you had a rock-n-roll record
until I saw your picture
on another guy's jacket
You told me I was the only one
But look at you now
it's dark and you're gone
(chorus)
My, my, my
I'm once bitten twice shy baby
So shy
So shy
So shy
Got a head full of fever
My body's wracked with pain
Staring into blackness
Something's waiting there for me
Try to hold to my senses
But darkness has its hand on me
Stripping back the covers leavin'
A bed of doubt and agony
It's in the shadows, waiting
Nightmares
Parasites sucking on my veins
Unholy fears are coming true
I wish, I could sleep in the silent deep
You leave home 'cause it brings you down
No attention from a sleepy Midwest town
Make you way to the center stage
A spotlight makes it justifiable rage
It's reinvention as celebrity
Don't touch, just look at me
I say, oh no, never trust a pretty face
Oh no, never trust a pretty face
You said baby put your trust in me
When darkness fall I will always help you see
Stole the key from tomorrow's door
You had it all but you only wanted more
Sold your soul for the company
You went and took advantage of me
I say, oh no, never trust a pretty face
Oh no, never trust a pretty face
That's all
A silent face in a magazine
You learn to lie as you sell the world a dream
Listen now for the drop of a name
A steppin' stone on the stairway to fame
I only saw what I wanted to see
I let my heart make a fool outta me
I say, oh no, never trust a pretty face
Oh no, never trust a pretty face
Oh no, no, no, never trust a pretty face
And slowly she turns away
Oh, don't look anymore
There's only stillness
No more air can he draw
No time to say goodbye
No last little kiss
No life where bullets fly
And now it comes to this
What's left in her world
The child's gone
Softly she whispers
"Where did I go so wrong?"
My future, my baby
Tell me what's goin' on?
No light in mother's eyes
Nothing you can say
No answers for the why's
She'll ask every day
What's left for the world
Well, I never thought I'd see you back
On my side of the railroad tracks
Just blown in from Tokyo
Hangin' out at the rock n' roll show
You're lookin' for some kid to sign
Catchin' jive off the grapevine
'Billboard's' runnin' a picture next week
'Hits' applauds you on your winnin' streak
Never mind, you're sleepin' alone
There's always someone else on the phone
So momma, don't stop your rock n' roll
You might just find your heart has gone cold
Momma, don't stop your rock n' roll
All day long
Said, "I'm really impressed with the things that you've done"
Look how far this lady has come
Used to be so quiet and sweet
Now your name's all over the street
You used to charge it by the hour
Well, now you own an apartment tower
It's a shame about your former friends
Everyone now is a means to an end
Never mind, you're livin' alone
It's hard to get a scratch on the lovin' Jones
Momma, don't stop your rock n' roll
You might just find your little lost soul
Momma, don't stop your rock n' roll
All night long
It's so hard to be a woman today
To get what you deserve
It's not easy when you're workin' this way
You have to keep a distant reserve
So momma, don't stop your rock n' roll
You might just find your heart has gone cold
Momma, don't stop your rock n' roll
All day long
Momma, don't stop your rock n' roll
You might just find your heart has gone cold
Momma, don't stop your rock n' roll
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
I love you for you baby
[Incomprehensible]
Somethin' 'bout the way she walks
The way she wears her hair
Somethin' 'bout the way she talks
She makes her meaning clear
Animal grace, the angel face
She gets it all for free
You'll be sorry, believe it
She used to put that on for me
Fire's in her eyes but eyes can lie
Blinded by the light of the stars
She's a mean mistreater
But you just can't leave her alone
She's a mean mistreater
And no, you can't leave her alone
She's a mean mistreater
We came to town in seventy-five
From somewhere way back east
Whole lot more to staying alive
Than they tell you 'bout down on main street
Took our place, lost in space
Two more dreamers in town
You know the story, believe it
And now she chooses cold company
Fire's in her eyes but her eyes lie
Listen mister, take it from me
She's a mean mistreater
You just can't leave her alone
She's a mean mistreater
And no, you can't leave her alone
She's a mean mistreater
You just can't leave her alone
She's a mean, mean mistreater
No, you can't leave her alone
She's a mean mistreater
Fire's in her eyes but her eyes still lie
Listen mister, take it from me
She's a mistreater
She gonna treat you real bad
Real bad bad bad bad
She's a mean mistreater, yeah
She's a mean mistreater
No, you can't leave her alone
Stone trick teaser
No, you can't leave her alone
She's a mean, mean mistreater
No, you can't leave her alone
Yeah
She's a mean, mean mistreater
Now she's got to [Incomprehensible]
Take a walk
That girl is just a cool good looker
That baby's sweeter than raw brown sugar
Never mind 'cause the fancy took her
She says she wants to have the small head rock her
What a smile, don't it drive you insane
Ooh, my baby, uh huh
Drive a mile, just to ride back again
Baby, won't you rock it tonight
And when she's in the mood
When she needs that lovin' groove
When she wants it rude
She grooves with Mista Bone
If she's in the mood
If she hits that lovin' groove
When she's gettin' rude
She grooves with Mista Bone
Just take it like a sweet injection
Just a token of my affection
Another night we'll take another direction
I'm gonna play you like a rhythm section
What style, let me see that again
Ooh, my baby, oh yeah
Drive a mile, just to ride you again
Baby, won't you rock it tonight
And when she's in the groove
When she gets that lovin' mood
When she wants it rude
She grooves with Mista Bone
When she's in the mood
When she hits that lovin' groove
When she's gettin' rude
She grooves with Mista Bone
Oh, when she's in the mood
When she needs that lovin' groove
When she wants it rude
She grooves with Mista Bone
If she's in the mood
If she hits that lovin' groove
When she's gettin' rude
She grooves with Mista
Well, I've been driftin' alone in the night
I've had the blues for you so long
I've been down, I've been so confused
Searchin' for an answer baby
One that I can use
Lyin' here in the mornin' light
Promises fade like the dreams of the night
My old lover, you don't come no more
Bring me lovin' baby like you did before
Was it the time?
Was it someone on your mind?
Was it a love just for a while?
Maybe someday when the hurtin' is gone
Baby, someway love will stay on
Maybe someday we will do no wrong
I know we can make it alright, babe, if we try, yeah
Maybe someday
I've been thinkin', darlin' of all the times before
When I needed lovin', why did it walk right out the door?
Do I hold you too hard, baby? Jealous, you don't stay
I guess that's lovin' you, darlin'
I'm lovin' the wrong way
Is it the time?
Is there someone on my mind?
Is it love once in a while?
Maybe someday the need will be gone
Maybe someway I'll find to move on
Maybe someday there's a way to belong
Maybe I'll find it today, baby, our way, oh
Maybe someday
Lit a candle and I set it on the wall
Let the wax like teardrops fall
Then I wonder why I used to dream on, baby
Dream that we could have it all
I see now love for you was what you had to do
Change your mind like you change your dress
I thought I knew you every way
I saw the child, the woman plain as day
Well I thought I knew myself
And now I come to find
Love is blind and I’m the loving kind
Bought a diamond and I set it on your hand
It’s a ………… to the band
And I hear them say you’ve been a bad girl, baby
You don’t seem to understand
Just for the social whirl you play the party girl
Now you drink your wine, and oh baby, time to forget
I thought I knew you every way, oh
I saw the child, the woman as plain as day
And I thought I knew myself
But now I come to find
Love is blind, I’m the loving kind
You made a game of love
What were you thinking of
It takes a heartbeat, baby
To say goodbye
I thought I knew you every way
I saw the child, the woman as plain as day, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, and I thought I knew myself
But now I come to find
Love is blind and I’m the loving kind
Well I thought I knew you every way
I saw the child, the woman as plain as day
Yeah, yeah, and I thought I knew myself
But now I come to find
When I was younger, trusted fate to pave the way
Love was so easy, just a game that children play
No time-out for changes, all my days are darkened dreams
Now there ain't nothin' and nothin's what it seems
You know heartache comes full circle, yeah
Has the past returned again, again
I'm upside down, I don't understand you anymore
Is it somebody else I see walkin' through my door
No more lies on the table, no more pictures on the wall
Feel like I'm livin' in a loveless age
Night brings no comfort, a rider on the storm
Lookin' for reason in the face of destiny
'Cause faith has no meanin' in a broken dream
Where there ain't no one, and no one's who they seem
You know heartache comes full circle, yeah
And the scars on the soul never fade
I'm upside down, I don't understand you anymore
Is it somebody else I see walkin' through my door
No more lies on the table, no more pictures on the wall
Feel like I'm livin' in a loveless age
Feel like I'm livin' in a loveless age
I don't want you, what I need is the touch of a woman
Who won't try to make me bleed
Maybe I'm crazy, yeah baby that's me
No, no, no, no, no, no don't go draggin' me down
And then leave me to drown in this loveless age
I'm upside down, I don't understand you anymore
Is it somebody else I see walkin' through my door
No more lies on the table, no more pictures on the wall
Feel like I'm livin' in a loveless age
Feel like I'm livin' in a loveless age
Feel like I'm livin', in a loveless age, oh
Livin' in a loveless age, oh yeah
It's not that easy in a loveless age
No more, no more in a loveless age
Loveless, yeah
Feel like I'm livin' in a loveless age
Woke up to catch the early train destination anywhere
Found myself walking down the side of road still your
memory won't disappear
I could never run far enough away from you to free you from my heart
And even if I walked a million miles I could ever forget your smile
You've been getting what you want forever with nothing
but that look in your eyes
The only time you found for me babe is when it's time
for you to find a place to hide
Now it's the last chance maybe one more time will do
Yeah it's the last chance and all I want to do is be with you
Feeling like the sun at the end of the day overtaken by the night
I'm hoping we can find our peace of mind in between the dark and the light
Been taking what you want from the ones that you love
you took it all yeah that's true
But even in the light of a thousand moons I've never seen eyes so blue
But it's the last chance maybe one more time will do
Yeah it's the last chance
Now it's the last chance and all I want to do is be with you
I remember those summer nights lying underneath the stars
Living only to be holding you closer to closer to my heart
Well you've been getting what you want forever with
nothing but that look in your eyes
But now there's no place left for you to run and hide
It's the last chance maybe one more time will do
Yeah it's the last chance
Baby it's the last chance maybe one more time will do
Deep in the night, alone in the dark
I get a need for you
In a hotel room I remember the way
How we do what we do
Too long without your touch
Too long without your love
My lady of lights
I'm coming over for you
I'll call you lover, I'll call you friend
But when I need another
She's got a heart
A heart to lend
Lady Red Light, rock me tonight
Baby's got a way to make it alright
Lady Red Light, rock me tonight
She knows how to move me
My Lady Red Light, Lady Red Light, lady
A shadow of light waiting in time
Well really no need to be cold and alone
I've made up my mind who I need to see
I'll call you lover, I'll call you friend
But when I need another
She's got a heart
A heart to lend
Lady Red Light, rock me tonight
Baby's got a way to make it alright
Lady Red Light, rock me tonight
She knows how to move me
Lady Red Light, rock me tonight
Baby's got a way and I'm felling alright
Lady Red Light, rock me tonight
She knows how to move me
Lady Red Light
Red Light, rock me tonight
Baby's got a way to make it alright
Lady Red Light, rock me tonight
She knows how to move me
Lady Red Light, rock me tonight
Baby's got a way to make it alright
Lady Red Light, rock me tonight
She really knows how to move me, yeah
Well Lady Red Light, Lady Red Light
She knows how to move me
Walking through the darkness
A lonely man searching for a soul
Look everywhere, no one around
Something in the distance
A memory reminds me of a time
Look everywhere, no one around
And I'm looking, reaching out again
I'm trying to find someone alive
Do you hear me? Is anybody there?
Do you hear me? Is anybody there?
Standing in the darkness
A troubled mind, talking to myself
So all alone, is it a dream
Sidewalk's cold and lonely
The shadows of the night begin to fade
Open my eyes, nobody's there
And I'm looking, reaching out again
Trying to find someone alive
Do you hear me? Is anybody there?
Do you hear me? Is anybody there?
Do you hear me? Is anybody there?
(Do you hear me calling?)
Do you hear me? Is anybody there
(Do you hear me call?)
And I'm looking, reaching out again
Still trying to find someone alive
Do you hear me? Is anybody there?
Do you hear me? Is anybody there?
Do you hear me? Is anybody there
(Do you hear me calling?)
Do you hear me? Is anybody there
(Do you hear me call?)
Do you hear me calling?
Do you hear me call?
(Do you hear?)
Do you hear me calling?
Do you hear me? Is anybody there
(Do you hear me call?)
Do you hear me calling?
Do you hear me? Is anybody there
Here I am hearin' the same old good advice
Surrounded by fools who could swear each heart loves twice
I can't pretend everything's good
Believe me I wish that I could
I can't fake a smile through the evenin'
I'll probably crack if the pain's too strong
Play a song for me
But it has to be in the tradition of love gone wrong
I've noticed today I have one less friend to call
And no one to tell me it's all right as my world starts to fall
I'm doing the best that I can
And I've had all the help I can stand
I can't fake a smile through the evenin'
I'll probably crack if the pain's too strong
Play a song for me
But it has to be in the tradition of love gone wrong
I'm ready to crash, yes I am
But I'll hide it the best that I can
I can't fake a smile through the evenin'
I'll probably crack if the pain's too strong
Play a song for me
Make it last for me in the tradition of love gone wrong
I know the spell you're under
I know it so well
How far? Well may you wonder
No way to tell
I've traveled miles from nowhere
Where suns never rise
Lookin' to find a meaning
Now open your eyes
Yeah
I've been this way so long
Tomorrow's gone
See if the rhyme has reason
Chasing the wind
Look for a change of season
Somewhere to begin
Yeah
The freeway is my song
Now hiway nights, red tail lights
Lead my love light on
Hiway nights, freeway sights
To this eagle I belong, it rolls me on
So how can I bring you lovin'
Out of the night
Is it a dream
To fade in the light?
Yeah
The freeway is my song
Hiway nights, red tail lights
To this eagle I belong
Hiway lights, freeway sights
Lead my love light on
Hiway nights, red tail lights
Lead my love light on
Hiway lights, of the freeway sights
To this eagle I belong, it rolls me on
Baby, won't you start your motor?
Oh baby, won't you turn it over?
Baby, won't you drive me
Drive me through the night?
Hiway nights, red tail lights
To this eagle I belong
Hiway lights, of the freeway sights
Lead my love light on
Hiway nights, red tail lights
Lead my love light on
Hiway lights, of the freeway sights
To this eagle I belong, it rolls me on
So outta reach, so far away
Another's woman and can't keep away
Can't be alone wastin' all of my time
I'm in pain, I'm in heartache
It's gonna end up in a heartbreak
And no one knows how to make it alright
I've seen love before
I can't take this anymore
Someone's losin' her heart
She's got the lovin' that gives me peace of mind
I'm still here waitin' for her to see the light
It would be so good, be so fine
Give me the love that you know is mine
It would be so good, be so fine
Let me know when your heart is mine
To love a brother, to love another
To have a friend you can count on forever
How can you tell him his lovin' is mine
She's got the lovin' that gives me peace of mind
I'm still waitin' for her to see the light
Search my soul to find out wrong from right
All I know I'm alone tonight
I know I outta try to leave it
I know I should
But my heart needs to keep her
Leavin' here on a goodbye road
Been holdin' on for too long
One way out still open to me
Just be a rock rolling stoned
City lights, summer nights
The modern day call of the wild
Faces come, the faces go
All looking for someone to be
I don't mind, I do fine
There's nowhere that I'd rather be
It's a mainline
Fast road to nowhere
Don't you cry, baby don't ask why
And what does this all mean to me
Sometimes it just seems to be
We all have need to break free
I don't mind, I do fine
There's nowhere that I'd rather be
On a mainline
Fast road to nowhere
A straight line
Fast road to nowhere
Take me along for the ride
No return, no return
There's fire in your eyes
And fire in the heat of the night
[Incomprehensible]
Nowhere that I'd rather be
On a mainline
Fast road to nowhere
Just a straight line
The fast road to nowhere
A straight line
Fast road to nowhere
A straight line
Let's shake this town, baby
Come with me
I need a little lovin' company
C'mon now, I know where we can go
This is the time
T'stay out all night
I've gotta fire like a heavenly light
C'mon baby, let's take a drive
C'mon, baby
Let's do it right
Time to dance
In the magic light
Of the desert moon
Well, let's lay it down
Under a cactus tree
Give a little lovin' ecstacy
C'mon now, it's time to go
Little baby
You're a beautiful sight
I've got the love, we have the night
C'mon baby, it's time to fly
C'mon, baby
Let's do it right
Time to dance
In the magic light
Of the desert
Come on, honey
Let's get it right
Make romance
In the magic light
Of the desert moon
C'mon, baby
Let's do it right
Time to dance
In the magic light
Of the desert
Come on, honey
Let's get it right
Make romance
In the magic light
black rain following me around
i'm clawing my way from the underground
i've set myself up for some big time hell to pay
self destruction's a part of me
a demolition man to the first degree
and every life i touch gets blown away
i'll be fine here 'cause it's familiar
feel so alive when i'm dancing on the edge
oh no no i'm in the danger zone again
oh no no i'm living in the danger zone
oh no no living in the danger zone
i'll be all right here i've got no worries
i've already paved the way
i've already paved the way
i live my life any way i choose
i've told you before it's mine to use
and the way i live doesn't leave that much to lose
too old to change too young to die
too fast to live too high to fly
and i found out too late love is just a lie
i'll be fine here 'cause it's familiar
can't read the signs but i know what's up ahead
oh no no i'm in the danger zone again
oh no no i'm living in the danger zone
oh no no living in the danger zone
i'll be all right here i've got no worries
i've already paved the way
i've already paved the way
(Guitar Solo)
i'll be fine here don't you worry
yeah i was lost for a time but jack is back again
i already know the way baby
i already know the way
i've already paved the way
i've already paved the way
oh no no i'm in the danger zone again
oh no no i'm living in the danger zone
oh no no living in the danger zone
i'll be fine here 'cause it's familiar
feel so alive when i'm jumping off the edge
oh no no i'm in the danger zone again
oh no no i'm living in the danger zone
oh no no living in the danger zone
i'll be fine here 'cause it's familiar
Lately I've been tryin'
To have a word or two
Waitin' for a moment
To get to you
As I've been restrainin'
What I need to say
Silence gets misunderstood
Some way
Now it's time to sit right down
And make my point of view
Otherwise, oh, love of mine
I'll fall away from you
Woman, I'm a singer
That's all I'll ever be
Give n' take n' don't complicate
The simple harmonies
There's nothing I need from you
That you should keep from me
Nothing that you hold
Sets you free
And all I have, these simple words
That I will give to you
He's the fool who won't reach out
And tries to play it cool
I'm cryin'
Baby, I'm cryin'
And it feels like I'm dyin'
'Cause I can't get next to you
I'm cryin'
Baby, I'm cryin'
And it feels like I'm dyin'
'Cause I can't get next to you
Darlin', come on and hold me
I need a one and only
Baby, hear me when I say
I'm cryin'
Baby, I'm cryin'
And it feels like I'm dyin'
'Cause I can't get next to you
I'm cryin'
Baby, I'm cryin'
And it feels like I'm dyin'
Tell me which way the wind blows
And of the song it sings
Tell me where did the time go
And for who the bells ring
Baby, days are so empty now
No promises, no pain
I guess I, I guess I realized
I overstayed my day
And I wonder now as I write this down
How it's gonna sound when I'm old
Did I learn to fly, did I reach the sky
Am I goin' underground?
But I know, I know
I can tell you pretty darlin'
What it means to be alone
And I know, I know
I can tell you little darlin'
It's no good to be alone
Sometimes as the rain comes down
I feel it wash away my fears
And sometimes as the rain comes down
It's another veil of tears
And I wonder if I missed a turn
On the long and winding road
Did I lose my eyes, did my radar die
Is it time to crash and burn?
But I know, I know
I can tell you without lyin'
I don't wanna be alone
And I know, I know
I know the sky is cryin'
And I don't wanna be alone
And if I find you out there in the streets
Will you know me the moment our eyes meet?
Will you find me, will I know you?
And I wonder if I missed a turn
On the long and winding road
Did I lose my eyes, did my radar die
Am I gonna crash and burn?
And I know, I know
I can tell you pretty darlin'
I don't wanna be alone
And I know, I know
I know the sky is cryin'
Grew up on promises
Tomorrow will be all right
Held on to my defenses
In fear of the night
Covered my worried head
As she turned out the light
And just as tomorrow comes
Again comes the night
The only comfort I received
All you can do is let it be
It's gonna be all right, uh huh?
It's gonna be all right, uh huh?
We'll make it through the night
It's gonna be all right
Took on an education
I learnt to compete
It don't take no qualification
To sleep on the street
There's not much humanity
In this kind of race
How civil is competition
A foot on a face?
And at the time I still believed
A little more juice and I'll be free
It's gonna be all right, uh huh?
It's gonna be all right, uh huh?
We'll make it through the night
It's gonna be all right
All right
Now as I take your hand
Show you the stars
Try to explain to you
Who we are
With so little expectation
In this manner of life
All of the complications
The fear in the night
Will you be able to believe
There will be love eventually
It's gonna be all right, uh huh?
It's gonna be all right, uh huh?
We'll make it through the night
Woke up a little too rough
Looking like a quarter
When a dollar ain't enough
This room is just a mess
Nothings ever working
And I couldn't care less
You know I ain't got no honey
Because I ain't got no money
Broke up, no good bye
Now it's down to slumming
And living high and dry
So don't go comin' around
No more bringin' me down
There's nothin' left, baby
It's all over now
That's why, can't cry
Now you've got a ticket
It's all over now
So tough, all her jive
Need a lot of action
Just to keep it alive
Blue moon love in June
Nothin' but a promise
Of trouble comin' soon
Ain't got a lover
Who ain't got another
Woke up, just enough
Give you all I ought to
But it never was enough
No more comin' around
No more bringin' me down
Nothin' left, baby
It's all over now
That's why, can't cry
It's all over now
Nothin' left, baby
It's all over now
That's why, can't cry
Now you've got a ticket
It's all over now, yeah
She done me wrong
It's all over town
Now she's gone
Your turn to cry
Nothin' left, baby
It's all over now
That's why, can't cry
It's all over now
Nothin' left, baby
It's all over now
That's why, can't cry
Now you've got a ticket
It's all over now, oh yeah
Over now, its all over now
Ain't no line, ain't no lyin' to love
Ain't no crime, Lord there ain't no cryin' to love
Yeah to love
Well you say your sick and tired of being lonely
And you say you've had enough of sympathy
And you find there's no one there to share your midnights
Well that just ain't the way it ought to be
And it ain't no shame
Ain't no shame to be loved
And you better believe it, 'cause when you're there
There's nothing else you'd ever want to do
Ain't no shame to be loved, can't you hear me
Look inside your heart'll tell you true
All my love belongs to you
To walk the path, the path of life alone, so alone
A single light in an empty sky so alone, yes I'm so alone
When it seems there's no one there to lend a shoulder
And your nights are cold and filled with misery
Well it's time you took a look a little closer
'Cause that's just ain't the way it is with me
And ain't no shame
Ain't no shame to be loved
And you better believe it, 'cause when you're there
There's nothing else you'd ever want to do
Ain't no shame to be loved, can't you hear me
Look inside your heart'll tell you true
All my love belongs to you
Well you say you're sick and tired of being lonely
And your nights are cold and filled with misery
Well it's time you took a look a little closer, a little closer
'Cause that's just ain't the way it ought to be
No, ain't no shame
Ain't no shame to be loved
And you'd better believe it, 'cause when you're there
There's nothing else you'd ever want to do
Ain't no shame to be loved
All my love belongs to you
Ain't no shame to be loved
Your love, love is all around me, everywhere
Love has come to touch my soul
With someone who really cares
No-one can deny us
People who once passed me by
Will turn their heads
I’m happy just to be with you
And loving you the way I do, oh
Is everything I need to know
Just resting in the afterglow of your fire
You, yes you have always been here
A feeling deep inside
A feeling that I could not see
Or touch, or try to hide
My love is in and without you
I bless the day that I found you
So listen baby
I’m happy just to be with you
Girl, loving you the way I do
Is everything I need to know
Just resting in the afterglow of your fire
Love is like a voice in my head
Keeps turning out all the things that we said
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I’m happy just to be with you
Baby, loving you the way I do
Is everything I need to know, yeah
You'll never believe whats going throuh my head Or how many times I've been down and left for dead I'm in from the out, yeah, turnin' ouside in You'll never believe how crazy this road has been
New destinations, It's day it's not no wrong nor right I'm on the top, and I'm back to the rhythm again Feels like it's never gonna stop and I'm back to the rhythm again
(Fraser, Rodgers)
Every single day,
I got a heartache comin' my way
I don't wanna say goodbye, baby
but look at the tears in my eyes
I don't wanna say goodbye, mama
but look at the way you made me cry
Every way that's nice, you show
You got a heart that's made of ice
And I know...
Fire and water must've made you their daughter
You got what it takes to make a poor man's heart break,
a poor man's heart break
Lover, you turn me on,
but quick as a flash, your love is gone
Baby I'm gonna leave you now,
but I've got to make you grieve somehow
Fire and water must've made you their daughter
You got what it takes to make a poor man's heart break
a poor man's heart break
And my heart is breakin'
I don't wanna say goodbye, yeah
but look at the way you made me cry
Every way that's nice, you show
You got a heart that's made of ice
And I know...
Fire and water must've made you their daughter
You got what it takes to make a poor man's heart break,
Well my temperature's rising and my feet are on the floor
Twenty people knocking 'cos they're wanting some more
Let me in baby, I don't know what you've got
But you'd better take it easy, this place is hot
And I'm so glad we made it, I'm so glad we made it
You've gotta gimme some lovin'
(Gimme some lovin')
Gimme some lovin'
(Gimme, gimme some lovin')
Gimme some lovin' everyday
Well I feel so good, everything is sounding hot
Better take it easy 'cos the place is on fire
Been a hard day and I don't know what to do
Wait a minute baby, it could happen to you
I'm so glad we made it, I'm so glad we made it
You've gotta gimme some lovin'
(Gimme some lovin')
Gimme some lovin'
(Gimme, gimme some lovin')
Gimme some lovin' everyday, every single day
Well I feel so good, everybody's getting high
Better take it easy 'cos the place is on fire
Been a hard day and nothing went too good
Now I'm gonna relax, honey, everybody should
So glad we made it
I'm so glad we made it
Come on
Gimme some lovin'
(Gimme some lovin')
Gimme some lovin'
(Gimme, gimme some lovin')
Gimme some lovin' everyday
Gimme
Gimme some lovin'
Gimme gimme some lovin'
Thats right, baby
When the truth is found to be lies and all the joy within you dies don't you want somebody to love don't you need somebody to love wouldn't you love somebody to love you better find somebody to love
When the garden flowers baby are dead yes and your mind [, your mind] is [so] full of red don't you want somebody to love don't you need somebody to love wouldn't you love somebody to love you better find somebody to love
your eyes, I say your eyes may look like his [yeah] but in your head baby I'm afraid you don't know where it is don't you want somebody to love don't you need somebody to love wouldn't you love somebody to love you better find somebody to love
I sit and watch you while you sleep
As you lie there dreaming
Knowing all that's left to give
Is the soul you're stealing
Time goes on love rolls by
Your eyes send emotion
I feel at home in an empty room
As I stare and wonder
There's no sound of laughter any more
And I'm alone inside
Of this cold world
It's your world
It's not mine any more
It's a cold world
It's your world
Now I'm slamming the door
On your cold world
In the silence of the night
I can feel the darkness
I'm alone but it's all right
It's so clear and I know
There's no warmth inside you any more
And I can't survive
In this cold world
It's your world
It's not mine any more
It's a cold world
It's your world
Now I'm slamming the door
On your cold world
You don't live to love me any more
And I can't go on no i can't go on
In this cold world
It's your world
It's not mine any more
It's a cold world
It's your world
Now I'm slamming the door
It's your world
It's a cold world
It's your world
I'm slamming the door
On your cold world
It's a cold world
It's a cold world
I took a look around
It's time to shake this town
It's bringing me so down
Hey, yeah, I'm on my way
So tired of people's greed
And how they make you bleed
When they got all they need
But tell me, "Boy, you going to pay"
Cutting loose
Slipping from the noose
Loud and proud
Dancing on a cloud
If there ever was a time that time is now
Going to do it anyway I can
Going to make it or break it anyway I can
Going to take it anyway I can
It's my life in my hands I hope you understand
A friend told me today
If it keeps on this way
He's going to make a play
And do the big goodbye
Seems everywhere I look
The taking has all been took
And then someone writes a book
Telling me it's going to be all right
So naïve
I really can't conceive
How people lie
Just waiting around to die
Looking up for answers from the sky
Going to do it anyway I can
Going to make it or break it anyway I can
Going to take it anyway I can
It's my life in my hands I hope you understand
No, no, no, no
Desperate and a loser
A failure at his trade
Nothing more to live for
A decision that he made
He said that he's sorry
But that won't work this time
End of the line, end of the line
Bargained for his freedom
His last chance to run
Forced into a corner
And killed by his own gun
He said that he's sorry
But that won't work this time
End of the line, end of the line
End of the line, end of the line
Can't take it, can't take it, can't take it no more
Can't take it, can't take it, can't take it no more
He said that he's sorry
But that won't work this time
End of the line, end of the line, end of the line
Where is the love that waits for me?
Where is the love?
Where is the love to care for me?
To shelter me?
Alone I try to see the world through innocent eyes
But through these eyes it's all the same
Days go by sands of time love denied
And as I wait alone remain
Where is the love that waits for me?
Where is the love?
Where is the love to care for me?
To comfort me?
Passions played lovers' games abate
The seasons change and then the fire is gone
Where is the love that's going to save me?
Where is the light to guide my way?
Where is the love that sighs the clear blue skies an angel's eyes
Where is the one to call my own?
Where is the love?
Where is the love that waits for me?
Where is the love?
Where is the love to care for me?
To shelter me?
Where is the love?
Where is the love that waits for me?
Where is the love?
Where is the love to care for me?
To shelter me?
Where is the love?
Where is the love that waits for me?
Where is the love to cry for me?
