You're awake as dawn breaks, another day
And the gray clouds weep how you feel
Oh but the way she touch you just brings you back to life
Oh, don't let them bury your soul in concrete and steel
So what's so bad about feeling good?
What's so bad, what's so bad?
What's so bad about feeling good?
What's so bad, what's so bad?
Why hold back when you know you should?
Break the chains of your life and start
Feeling good, I said, feeling good
As we're walking home there's a whispering
From the city lights to the stars
And the way she move her body next to me
In her hair I breathe the air of Venus and Mars
So what's so bad about feeling good?
What's so bad, what's so bad?
Why hold back when you know you should?
Break the chains of your life and start feeling good
What's so bad about feeling good?
Break the chains of your life and start feeling good
Dream on, dream on
If you're happy, feeling sad
Dream on, dream on
'Bout the things you could've had
Then tell me what
Oh, what's so good about feeling bad?
Oh, tell [Incomprehensible]
So what's so bad about feeling good?
What's so bad, what's so bad?
Why hold back when you know you should?
Break the chains of your life and start
What's so bad about feeling good?
What's so bad, baby, what's so bad?
(About feeling good)
What's so bad about feeling good?
Break the chains of, baby
(What's so bad?)
What's so bad about feeling good?
What's so bad about feeling good? Yeah
(What's so bad, what's so bad?)

Baby ben really likes to swing
Baby ben really feels like a king
As the wail of the horns make his body sway
Peggy sue likes to rock and roll
Peggy sue gonna lose control
As electric guitars play all her fears away
Chorus:
You gotta swing down tonight
Swing it real tight
Swing with your baby tonight
You gotta swing down tonight
It's gotta feel right
Swing with your baby tonight
Swing tight with your baby tonight
Swing down, swing down tonight, swing!
Baby ben knows just where it's at
Baby ben wears a pork pie hat
Feeling so cool, he draws his baby in
Peggy sue don't care for no rules
'coz peggy sue is his queen of cool
Locked in the groove they surrender to the swing
Repeat chorus
Swing, swing, swing, swing
Whether it's rock or it's swing
The groove is the thing
Gather the night around you
'coz the world belongs to you
Swing with your baby tonight - swing tight
(Wang Chung)
On her televison, on her mamma's radio
She could paint a picture
More alive than all she ought to know
Her imagination running wild, she let it grow
In her imagination
Oh she felt she loved him so
Chorus:
The eyes of the girl are following me
Looking for the man that she pinned on me
The tears for a love that could never be
Now it's all over
They're raining on me
Oh it's raining
It's an empty world with a lifetime on your hands
Oh we must believe that
Something someone somewhere understands
Our imagination wants to capture what we feel
In our imagination
Everything is real
Repeat Chorus
Tears fall from the eyes of the girl
And the girl is watching me
Tears fall from the eyes of the girl
And the girl is watching me
Baby, please release me from the power of your mind
Baby, please release me, leave this crazy scheme behind
Baby, please release me
Baby, please release me
Repeat Chorus
Tears fall from the eyes of the girl
It's hard to recall how we were at school
Our ambitions and conditions and our hopes for the future
The teachers we had, our mums and our dads
Their decisions and revisions and their hopes for the future
But look at me now, I cannot count the cost
Of all the friends I lost and though my heart did break
Look at me now, I'm on the candle flame
I have a different name, I have your hand to take
But look at me now and here I am
I used to believe in an idea received
With concision, but derision was my natural reaction
You cannot pretend that its all gonna end
In a second to be reckoned like a soldier in action
But look at me now, I cannot count the cost
Of all the friends I lost and though my heart did break
Look at me now, I'm on the candle flame
I have a different name, I have your hand to take
But look at me now and here I am
And turn the lights down low,
And take it easy
Help me make it through the night, well
The look in your eyes tonight
Kills me completely
Cuts me deeply like a knive
I thought you'd understand
I need a helping hand
And I can make it on my own
But you can take it
Straight from my heart
Comes a love so untrue
Straight from my heart
I can't help loving you
And can't you see that love is blind.
Oh yes it is
You've been talking
You've been talking
In the heat of the night
You've been telling me
Everything's gonna be alright, yeah
DonÂ't whisper to a stranger
Or your brand new friends
Just open up your heart
Open up and let me in
I thought you'd understand
Why I need a helping hand
And I can make it on my own, yeah
But you can take it
Straight from my heart
Comes a love so untrue
Straight from my heart
I can't help loving you
Don't close your eyes
Can't you see that love is blind.
Why do you tell me lies
You keep me up all night
Thinking things ain't right
Oh I wanna hold you tight, baby
All through the night
Yeah, hey
Can't you see that love is blind
Oh, yes it is
Turn the lights down low,
And take it easy
Help me make it through the night
Yes you can, yes you can
The look in your eyes tonight
Fills me completely
Cuts me deeply like a knive, yeah
Straight from my heart
Comes a love so untrue
Straight from my heart
Just can't help loving you
Straight from my heart
Comes a love so untrue
Don't close your eyes
I got your letter
I felt so scared to
pick up the paper knife
and read within
I read the contents
I got what you meant
I know it's hard on you
but don't give in
Maybe, maybe
slow things go fast
Maybe, maybe
it's all in the past
(chorus)
Oh oh if you need me don't let go
(you know I'll never give up on you)
Oh oh if you need me don't let go
(you know I won't give up on you)
Ooh, ooh ooh
Ooh, ooh ooh
You know I will never
give up on you
I phoned the station
for information
To try and get the
times of trains to York
And on the platform
I saw your hatform
a kind of halo in the crowd
crush talk
But baby baby
don't run away
Maybe, maybe
it's just today
(chorus)
Don't let go
(don't let go)
No I will never
give up on you
I saw your sad face
you dropped your suitcase
And I appreciate
the state you're in
You mustn't worry
You mustn't hurry
I know it's hard on you
but don't give in
Maybe, maybe
slow things go fast
Maybe, maybe
it's all in the past
(chorus)
Don't let go
I will never give
up on you
I'll, I'll never give
(Nick Feldman)
I don't wanna play these games of power
I don't wanna fight this war no more
Don't wanna twist the knife
Just wanna better life for me & you & me & you
Chorus:
Is this what you call love
Is this what we've been fighting for
Is this what you call love
There must be so much more
Is this what you call love
Forget old scores we should be making love
Not war
Make love not war
Gotta try to break this vicious circle
Gotta find the love we've nearly lost
It's time to stop the pain
We've played the blaming game for far too long
For far too long
Repeat Chorus
You hurt me then I hurt you a bit more
Is this the love to end all the wars
We gotta escape this no man's land
And throw away all our battle plans
Oh yeah all right...
Oh yeah all right...
Oh yeah all right...
Oh yeah all right...
Is this what you call love
Is this what we've been fighting for
Is this what you call love
Is this what we've been fighting for
Is this what you call love
There must be so much more
This fight is not for us
Forget old scores we should be making love
Not war
Make love not war
Forget old scores we should be making love
Not war
(Jack Hues / Nick De Spig)
Dancing in the street love
Dancing in your hair
They'll never know
That you dance until you go
And then you're down
Dancing in your heart love
Dancing in the sea
They'll never say
That you danced your life away
And now you're down
Dancing, Oh
(jack hues)
If you have to leave after all that we've
Been through, been through
Been through
I can't be a friend if your heart has the end
In view, in view
In view
Chorus:
Because lovers never can be
Just devoted friends
How can we meet on a day in the week
And be true, be true
Be true
And how can I speak and pretend that I'm happy for you
For you, for you
Repeat chorus
How can we meet on a day in the week
And be true, be true
Be true
And how can I speak and pretend that I'm happy for you
[Deeko:]
I never would have thought it
Somebody must have been informing
Now tell me how the fuck they get a warrant
How they come to my house in the morning
Have a twelve gauge pointed at my month when I was yawning
A know it was a setup how the fuck did it happen
Check the phone lines internet cause somebody's tapped in
I'm going out my mind trying to think who it was
Another drug lord or maybe one of my squad
But no it could'ntbe wouldn't do that to me
These are my friends wouldn't mess around with loyalty
The only thing we ever shared was trust
An eye for an eye
Blood in blood out it's all love
So if it's not one of my boys it's got to be someone
A'l have to find out my cell like the place that I'm stuck in
This is not what I need right now
Av got a baby coming
And I really want to see that child
Got to get out
Thinking I should give them a plea
But what the fuck have I to gain if I tell him it wasn't me
Tell him it wasn't he I was somewhere else
And I Don't think they over look the fucking knife on my shelf
Had it right in my belt
Should have left it that night in the cell
That's where I have to pay the cost of that price
Oh well
Your looking at me like it's just my dumb luck
But I'm not a dumb fuck I just lost it that night
But it's not all bad shit you wouldn't believe
Al be out real soon see they work for me
Making deals do they dirt with me
Not for free you see
I got a brother and he is Police
And when I'm out
You know I'm going to find that prick that snitched
Grassed me up I will cut this dick
Seems you can't trust no one when you live like this
Put the flames to his head he has brunt this bridge
You known it's not like me to slip up and get caught
That's why a kind of think it's an inside job
So now I'm trying to think what this prick might want
He is living reckless
But not for long...
So much on my mind now Iv got to get out here
There's rules to the game and I'm going to call foul here
Al find who it was and whoever that did it
Is going to wish they where dead
Al make him live to regret it [x2]
[Werd:]
I'm not living happily
Work all week for that salary
Every days a tragedy
Another rape murder assault and fucking battery
But a look at my brother like he's a technicality
I let him off with no charge
For a small charge
Ten years in the force ain't made serge
My brother sells bars and I keep him out of bars
He might be a dealer but I hold the cards
And he does dirt cleans up and gets paid
Makes more a day than my weekly wage
He would be happy with the cage if he made front page
I'm not happy as I said I got stress in my way
The only thing I got good is my woman
And I love her as much as I should'nt
Helping out my brothers really getting on my nerves
I only want her
To protect and serve
And we could run away but she won't leave
And when I'm not with her makes my heart bleed
But somethings going to happen that will change her mind
Somethings going to happen that will make her mine
Now my bother he done done it again
Got himself locked up got himself to blame
This time someone snitched someone grassed his name
They say they got a warrant and they came in his home
So again he wants me to help him slip away
Can't get locked up there's a baby on the way
His wifes got a bump
Due in a few months
Can he raise a kid are you taking the
But you want to know a secret don't tell
I got a little problem with my girl as well
See love hurts
The girl I'm with it's his
It gets worse (what)
It's my kid
That why when he got caught I didn't help
In fact I even wrote the warrant myself
I knew he had the knife
I knew theyd give him life
I knew with him gone I could be with his wife
So I tell him this time that he must do time
Don't worry about your family
They'll be fine
Now he locked up with nowhere to go
Logic And Love
(Feldman / Chandler)
Love and logic just don't go together
Try to force it, you'll be trying forever
Why discuss it when you're missing the point
Girl
Forget the fakin' all I care is that you're
Chorus:
Making all the right moves
You're making all the moves that hit the spot
You're speaking only half-truths girl
Just tell me all the things I like a lot
Stop thinking you're much too intense
Don't even try to make love make sense
Don't even try to make love make sense
Don't even try to say we're just good friends
Logic and love clash in your head
You don't see reason you just see red
We could argue 'till you're blue in the face girl
The time you're taking is the time you could beRepeat Chorus
I'm talking logic and love
I'm talking logic and love
Our scientific world demands that everything's
explained
You're an ultra-modern girl
But can't you see there's nothing to be gained
In analyzing love
You're making only false moves
But everything you do still hits the spot
And do you know what that proves girl
That love is far away the best we got, you know
The best of lovers don't have to be friends
Don't even try to make love make sense
Don't even try to make love make sense
Don't even try to say we're just good friends
Don't even try to make love make sense
Don't even try girl don't pretend
I'm talking logic and love
I'm talking logic and love
Logic and love
Logic and love
You woke me from my sleep, we quietly crept
Outside
This memory I'll keep of bitter crimson
Winter sunrise lost in the icy silence
Our warm breath fading in the air
I'm not sure why I tell you, still less what I mean
It's like a dream and maybe there's no cause
But in the end it's
What you can give to someone
How you can help to set them free
Big world is turning as we dream tonight
Big world we've got so out of tune with you
Now we have to put it right
Big world help us through
Get us through the night
This world is wounded now and we inflict
The pain
We have to change our lives and think again
'Cause in the end it's
All that we're sure we're made of
All that we know to set us free
Big world is turning as we dream tonight
Big world we've got so out of tune with you
Now we have to put it right
Big world help us through
Get us through the night
Keep on rolling through the night
'Cause the big world is never gonna let you down
If we learn to treat her right
What got into you got into me too
What came over you is coming over me
I've had enough of all the old stuff
I saw the writing on the wall on my TV
It's another second coming, like it or not, yeah, oh yeah
It's another second coming, like it or not
You better start praying to a new God
Start praying, praying to a new God
Start praying to a new, new God
They're saying the Devil's got a new job
Start praying to a new
A lot of Babel came down the cable
Everybody can be famous for a day
From shore to shore, a big department store
Is all that's left of the American way
It's another second coming, like it or not, yeah, oh yeah
Well, it's another second coming, like it or not
You better start praying to a new God
Start praying, praying to a new God
Start praying to a new, new God
Start praying, what are you afraid of
Start praying to a new
There's a big world
In the street outside
In their uniform of pride
And they've all come
To see a star from the east
Is he man or beast? Decide
Feel like I'm crucified, still I'm not satisfied
The second coming is coming anyway
I see them pray for more on every dance floor
I hear the word go out across the milky way
It's another second coming, like it or not, yeah, oh yeah
It's another second coming, like it or not
You better start praying to a new God
Start praying, praying to a new God
Start praying to a new, new God
Success and money's what he's made of
Start praying to a new God
Start praying, praying on the airwaves
Start praying to a new, new God
Start praying, praying on the freeway
Start praying to a new God
Start praying, praying at the back door
Start praying to a new, new God
Start praying, praying on the dance floor
Start praying to a new God
Start praying, praying to a new God
Start swaying to a new, new God
Start praying, praying to a new God
Start swaying to a new God
Start praying, praying to a new God
(Michael Leeson / Peter Vale / Jack Hues / Peter Wolf)
The longer love survives
The more it's easy to be blind
When it is obvious it's over
I put my trust in you
I spent my love and I thought I knew
But now things just don't look the same
I paid the price with a love I thought was strong
Counting on you I was wrong
Chorus:
Just like a fool and his money
Just like a fool, I let it slip away
Just like a fool and his money
All the love has gone
You think everything's all right
But love can change that all over night
And the hand you hold is colder
And then your fortunes fade
You really need the gold that you've thrown away
And all you believed in has changed
I paid the price for leaving love to chance alone
Now I know this bird has flownRepeat Chorus
As the rain pours down in a starless night
And my heart longs only for you
A fool to cry
Repeat Chorus
(wang chung)
The world in which we live is peopled by people who
Fuck, shit, screw everybody, don't care, swear
Do things without a care, are seen everywhere
And write about each other
The world in which we live is peopled by people who
Can't afford to eat, can't make ends meet
Got nowhere to sleep, can't feel the heat
Can't get out
Can't find a voice to scream it out
The world in which we live
The world on which all we are depends
Whoever could forgive
The way we treat the world in which we live
Chorus:
The world is a mosaic upon a golden floor
Moving silently, darkly through space
And our lives are the fragments and all that's gone before
Broken jewels in excrement base
Millions over millions are the world
Oh the world in which we live
Millions over millions are the world
Oh the world in which we live
The world in which we live
The world on which all we are depends
Whoever could forgive
The way we treat the world in which we live
The world in which we live is peopled by people who
Get up, stand up, speak up, fight
And do all the things that they think are necessary and right
The world in which we live is peopled by people who
Believe what they hold to be true, to be true for everybody
Repeat chorus
Millions over millions are the world
Oh the world in which we live
Millions over millions are the world
(jack hues / nick feldman)
These days our problems seem to come in waves
Sometimes it's hard to count them all
You're reading all alone when suddenly
You feel yourself about to fall
Chorus:
If you need someone to talk it out
Then talk it out with me
If you need someone to talk it out
Then I'm the one you need
Your fear of past mistakes intensifies
Your fear of everything that's new
You need a friend around to sympathise
Someone to help you with the view
Repeat chorus
If you need someone to talk it out
To talk of what you see
If you need someone to talk it out
Then I'm the one you need
Repeat chorus
Talk it out
Talk it out oh oh
Yeah
Drifting on the space-way
By the Betelgeuse Hotel
Mapping out constellations
Of the place I know so well
Sifting through the system
For the piece that knows my name
Endlessly I listen
In the master game
Welcome to my world
(Welcome to my world)
Welcome to my only world
(Welcome to my only world)
It is full of space junk
But your words are coming through
I'm riding on the space junk
And it's bringing me to you
Bringing me to you
Through the tenth dimension
To the certainties beyond
Dreamily in attention
And the sub-atomic bomb
Machine that spins within me
And the spirit that drives me on
Searching for an answer
Welcome to my world
(Welcome to my world)
Welcome to my only world
(Welcome to my only world)
My head is full of space junk
But your words are getting through
I'm riding on the space junk
And it's bringing me to you
Bringing me to you, yeah
It's bringing me to you, yeah, yeah oh
Sitting on the space junk
What am I to do?
I'm riding on the space junk
And it's bringing me to you
My head is full of space junk
But your words are getting through
I'm riding on the space junk
And it's bringing me to you
It's bringing me to you
It's bringing me to you
Meet me in a restaurant
Meet me on the top of the world
Meet me and we'll talk
the language of love
I'll meet you anywhere you want
I'll meet you on a ballroom floor
Meet me and we'll float to a level above
I wish you'd stop what you're doing
and get on the case
We could blow this existence
right out into space
and share a sweet isolation
Let's go there today
go today, go today
Everyway, right away
Oh, let's go
(chorus)
Let's go, baby, let's go, baby, come on
Let's go, baby, let's go, baby, come on
Let's go, baby, let's go, baby, come on
Let's go, 'cause we can't hold back no more
There's no way, there's no way
No, no way
Meet you on a mountain-top
I'll meet you at the end of the block
As long as we can talk
in the language of love
I'll take you in my arms again
I'll take you to the edge of time
Together we can reach
for the heavens above
(chorus)
Let's go, baby, let's go, baby, come on
'cause baby, I want your love
Let's go, baby, let's go, baby, come on
'cause baby, I'm saying
Take your cue from me now
I'm saying baby, let's go
Will you listen to me
I'm saying baby, come on now
Let's go 'cause we can't hold back no more
There's no way
Meet me on the dancefloor
and we'll dance to the rhythm
Get your feet in motion
and we'll dance to the rhythm
Dance to the rhythm
dance to the rhythm of love
Oh, baby
Let's go, baby, let's go, baby, come on
'cause baby, I want your love
Let's go, baby, let's go, baby, come on
'cause baby, I'm saying
Take your cue from me now
I'm saying baby, let's go
Will you listen to me
I'm saying baby, come on now
Let's go, 'cause we can't hold back no
Let's go, 'cause we can't hold back no
Let's go, 'cause we can't hold back no more
Hot on the run from the grip of the power game
The man who leads the way, the man who leads the way
Shell in it?s box from his home that they?ll never tame
The man who leads the way, the man who leads the way
He is burning, burning in the twilight
He is burning, turning to face us, he is burning, fire in the twilight
He is burning, turning to lead us away, away, away
Lead us away, away, away
Taking a break from the role of the everyday boy
The man who leads the way, the man who leads the way
Is he for real or is he back to the old way boy
Can he lead the way, oh can he lead the way?
He?s searching, but he?s lonely, and he?s hurting, but he?s only
Waiting for a chance just in time to live a life
Does he need ya, does he want ya? Does he listen to what you say?
Is he only waiting for the simple way?
He is burning, burning in the twilight
He is burning, turning to face us, he is burning, fire in the twilight
He is burning, turning to lead us away, away, away
In the heat of the day
Every time you go away
I have to piece my life together
Every time you're away
In the heat of the day
In the dark of the night
Every time I turn the light
I feel that God is not in heaven
In the dark of the night
The dark of the night
I wonder why I live alone here
I wonder why we spend these nights together
Is this the room I'll live my life forever
I wonder why in L.A.
To live and die in L.A.
I wonder why we waste our lives here
when we could run away to paradise
But I am held in some invisible vice
and i can't get away
To live and die in L.A.
If I let myself go
and for where I just don't know
I'd maybe hit some cold new river
that led out to the sea
An unknown sea
I'd either swim or I'd drown
or just keep falling down and down
I think it's that that makes me quiver
just to keep falling down
Down, down, down
I wonder why I live alone here
I wonder why we spend these nights together
Is this the way I'll live my life forever
I wonder why in L.A.
To live and die in L.A.
In every word that you say
I feel my freedom slip away
I feel the bars come down around me
and I can't get away
I can't get away
I wonder why I live alone here
I wonder why we spend these nights together
Is this the room I'll live my life forever
I wonder why in L.A.
To live and die in L.A
I wonder why we waste our lives here
when we could run away to paradise
But I am held in some invisible vice
and I can't get away
To live and die in L.A.
I can't get away
To live and die in L.A.
I can't get away
To live and die in L.A.
I can't get away
To live and die in L.A.
I can't get away
I'd drive a million miles
to be with you tonight
So if you're feeling low
turn up your radio
The words we use are strong
they make reality
But now the music's on
Oh baby dance with me
Rip it up
move down
Rip it up
move it down to the ground
Rip it up
cool down
Rip it up
and get the feeling not the word
(chorus)
Oh everybody have fun tonight
Everybody have fun tonight
Everybody Wang Chung tonight
Everybody have fun tonight
Everybody Wang Chung tonight
Everybody have fun
Deep in the world tonight
our hearts beat safe and sound
I'll hold you so close
just let yourself go down
Rip it up
move down
Rip it up
move it down to the ground
Rip it up
cool down
Rip it up
and get the feeling not the word
(chorus)
On the edge of oblivion
all the world is babylon
And all the love and everyone
a ship of fools sailing on
Across the nation, around the world
Everybody have fun tonight
A celebration so spread the word
Take your baby by the hand
and make her do a high hand stand
Take your baby by the heel
and do the next thing that you feel
We were so in phase
in our dance hall days
We were cool on craze
When I, you, and everyone we knew
could believe, do, and
share in what was true
Oh I said
Dance hall days, aw
Dance hall days, aw
Take your baby by the hair
and pull her close
and there there there
Take your baby by the ears
and play upon her darkest fears
We were so in phase
in our dance hall days
We were cool on craze
When I, you, and everyone we knew
could believe, do, and
share in what was true
Oh I said
Dance hall days, aw
Dance hall days, aw
(instrumental)
So take your baby by the wrist
and in her mouth an amethyst
And in her eyes two sapphires blue
and you need her and she needs you
And you need her and she needs you
We were so in phase
in our dance hall days
We were cool on craze
When I, you, and everyone we knew
could believe, do, and
share in what was true
Oh I said
Dance hall days, aw
Dance hall days, aw
(jack hues)
A star is shining
Into my eyes
It will not fall
A star is wise
Across the harbor
Perfumed hills
The silent waters
And all is still
Oh yeah
Chinese girls stand, see right through you
Chinese girls can sway
Chinese girls will melt your heart
And take your breath away
Chinese girls would dance with god
Chinese girls don't care
Put their hands around their heads
And through their chinese hair
She is not moving
She does not talk
Birds in her hair
Where she walks
And when she gazes
There's a pearl
I will not forget
(jack hues / nick de spig)
China, china, on the sea shore
China, china, on the dance floor
China, china, I must have seen your face before
I've been to cairo and I've been to khartoum
I've seen them places from my rented room
I've been to paris and I've been to marseille
But that was nothing till I got to cathay
I've been to new york and I've been to l.a.
I've been to delhi and I've been to bombay
I've been to venice and I've been to rome
But now it's peking that I think of as home
China, china, on the sea shore
China, china, on the dance floor
China, china, there's no finer place on earth
(jack hues)
You're sending messages to me girl
I feel them flashed across the land
It's such that I can disbelieve girl
And what you feel is in my hand
Chorus:
Ti na na, ti na na ne girl
Ti na na, ti na na ne
Ti na na, ti na na ne girl
Ti na na, ti na na ne
It's cold outside, I can't breathe girl
Without a pain inside my heart
And if I should ever leave girl
And even then without a start
So I'm sitting by the fireside
Or on the beach or some hotel
And I feel like sitting down and crying
I sing the words I know so well
(jack hues / darren costin / nick feldman)
Working at your job all day
Sends the time spinning away
Watch tv from half past six
Cook, make love and pick up sticks
But you can hear the waves crash on the beach
At night
Books you read can sublimate
Music seems to dissipate
And maybe just a bottle of wine
And a couple of smokes and you'll be fine
But you still hear the waves crash on the beach
At night
You can feel the waves crash on the beach
At night
Your lover lies beside you fast asleep
The moonlight falls upon the tears you weep
And you can hear the waves crash on the beach
At night oh at night
So all you really need is love
Love to give, receive above
And then the waves will soothe your heart
Your one true love will never part
True love (is the answer to everything
True love is the answer true love is the thing)
True love (is the answer to everything
True love is the answer true love is the thing)
And we will lie together both asleep
The moonlight will provide the tears we weep
And as we breathe the waves crash on the beach
At night
And as we breathe the waves crash on the beach
(Wang Chung)
I wanna paint your portrait in bright color
I wanna paint the lines in red and blue
I wanna make your eyes appear like starlings
Saying, "Darling, I love you!"
I wanna set your face upon a landscape
I wanna show the love and toil and sweat
I wanna show your beauty like a crystal
In an all-night launderette
Chorus:
Oh this line is the flat horizon
And you are the shape on the left
Oh this line is the flat horizon
And this is the sun in the sky
Oh this line is the flat horizon
And makes the great divide
Between heaven and angels
And earth and men
I wanna show what lies beneath the surface
In little squares of purple, green and gold
So everyone can see their own reflection
In the mirror of your soul
I wanna paint your arrogance and beauty
I wanna paint the way you laugh at me
I wanna paint the world in which I see you
Fixed for all eternity
Repeat Chorus
I wanna paint your portrait in bright color
I wanna paint your personality
I wanna show the world just how I see you
I wanna show the world just how I see you
You know that only I can guarantee you
Precious immortality
Precious immortality
Wake up, stop dreaming
The sun is in the sky again
There's a hole in the ocean
And water's pouring through
Oh, wake up, stop dreaming
And wipe the sleep from your eyes
Are you frightened of heights?
Are you falling?
Wake up, stop dreaming
There's more than just two steps to heaven
I'm saying if you wanna get to heaven
You'd better wake up
Wake up, stop dreaming
I'm talkin' 'bout dream and reality
I'm talkin' 'bout love and brutality
And I'm saying wake up, wake up
Wake up, stop dreaming
Before the shutters start to groan
Well it's something you said in the noon day sun
But I don't recall, I don't recall
Wake up, stop dreaming
Stop this seeming half reality
Don't turn your face away
Look at me
As you lie sleeping
Someone's keeping everything I knew
Don't try to run away
It's all new
Wake up, stop dreaming
There's more than just two steps to heaven
I'm saying that if you wanna get to heaven
You'd better wake up
Wake up, stop dreaming
I'm talkin' 'bout dream and reality
I'm talkin' 'bout love and brutality
And I'm saying wake up
Wake up, stop dreaming
There's more than just two steps to heaven
I'm saying that if you wanna get to heaven
Street corners seem designed to lie in wait
For a chance to get involved in lovers' fate
This one seems as good as any I've seen
So wait here with me until six-fifteen
I'm waiting for you but you're very late
I know you'll come anyway
And I can hardly wait
Evidently, there's a difficulty
I know you'll come anyway
And I can hardly wait
I can hardly wait, wait
I see you approaching, you're the eyes of the crowd
The traffic and people, God, they're all so loud
But in a couple of moments they will all disappear
Because we're ever so close when we're ever so near
I'm waiting for you but you're very late
I know you'll come anyway
And I can hardly wait
Evidently, there's a difficulty
I know you'll come anyway
And I can hardly wait
I can hardly wait, wait
Punctuality was never much to me
Being yourself is the main thing
Forget about the time, forget about the time
Being yourself is the main thing
The main thing, the main thing
The main thing, love
Forget about the time, forget about the time
I'm waiting for you but you're very late
I know you'll come anyway
And I can hardly wait
Evidently, there's a difficulty
I know you'll come anyway
And I can hardly wait
I can hardly wait
I can hardly wait
I can hardly wait
I can hardly wait
I can hardly wait
I can hardly wait
(I can hardly wait)
I can hardly wait
(I can hardly wait)
I can hardly wait
(I can hardly wait)
I can hardly wait
Don't be my enemy
Don't be my enemy
You had your dreams
You required a scheme of things
Evolved, resolved through the years
And I had my part
(When you wrote me)
But you broke my heart
(When you wrote me)
You spend your whole time trying
To burn me to the ground
Don't be my enemy
Can't you see, what you're doing to me?
Don't be my enemy
Can't you see, what an effect this is having on me?
Don't be my enemy
Can't you see, what you're doing to me?
Don't be my enemy
Can't you see, what an effect this is having on me?
I had a thought
It was just a simple thought
Of a friend, very close, very clear
But then it stopped looking so straight
(When you wrote me)
You found the hate
(When you wrote me)
You spend your whole time trying to make
Me look like your main fool
Don't be my enemy
Can't you see, what you're doing to me
Don't be my enemy
Can't you see, what an effect this is having on me?
Don't be my enemy
Can't you see, what you're doing to me?
Don't be my enemy
(jack hues / nick de spig)
Simple scenes that I've never seen
A hole in my living, a kind of in-between
A geisha girl, a hard won world
A wall that divides us from an eastern spell
So we're rising in the east
I've seen america, america
Where they're so tired of living, they don't walk alone
And my europeans, just do what they're told to do
That means me and you, me and you
So we're rising in the east
True love is the answer to, to everything
True love is the answer, true love is the thing
True love is the answer to, to everything
True love is the answer, oh, is the thing
True love is the answer to, to everything
True love is the answer, true love is the thing
True love is the answer to, to everything
True love is the answer, true love is the thing
Long days spent on the edge of space
Oh, maybe someone will come along, love
All day with every familiar face
Oh, tells me you're very very wrong, love
True love is the answer to, to everything
True love is the answer, true love is the thing
True love is the answer to, to everything
True love is the answer, true love is the thing
True love, true love
True love, true love
Oh, true love
This dance could never be true enough
Oh, there's more than lead us to our destiny
Entranced, we traveled, the two of us
Oh, and I knew that only you could rest the world for me
I live deep in the heart of things
Feel such a part of things
That remind me of you, love
And I know whatever the future brings
Wherever the pointer swings
There will always be true love, you love
True love is the answer to, to everything
True love is the answer, true love is the thing
True love is the answer to, to everything
True love is the answer, true love is the thing
True love
True love is the answer to, to everything
True love is the answer, true love is the thing
True love is the answer to, to everything
True love is the answer, true love is the thing
True love, yes, that's the answer to, to everything
It's the answer, it's the thing
True love, it's the answer to everything
It's the answer, it's the thing
(jack hues)
A man lives in the city
Surrounded by machines
They take away his pity
And give him what he dreams
A stream of information
On a green letter screen
Makes him feel in touch with the world
And sure of what it means
Chorus:
At the speed of light you're in endless night
At the speed of sound you don't see the ground
And in your sports car with the windows down
And the radio on and you don't stop talking
Thanks, I'll keep walking
I'm doing things in my own way
Well I'm doing things as I please
And then everything else goes it's own way
At the speed of life
A man lives in the city
Distracted by the news
From sitting down with the ones he loves
Or taking time to choose
And what of conversation?
And what is left when he dies?
Is there a diary of an honest man
To stand against the lies?
Repeat chorus
I'm doing things for their own sake
A picture on a screen won't do
I need to feel and touch it too
Do what I feel
I'm doing things for their own sake
I gotta find that essential, deep emotion
Get unhooked from this low commotion
And do what I feel
I'm doing things in my own way
I'm doing things in my own way
Well I'm doing things as I please
And then everything else goes it's own way
At the speed of life
(Jack Hues)
Well I'm sitting on a hillside
On the warmer side of cool
With the future laid before me
Like a green and misty jewel
And to climb above the tree line
Is only for the fools
So they say
So they say
Chorus:
On the warmer side of cool
What you feel in your heart is all
On the warmer side of cool
Being cool it's so easy to be cold
Well I'm sitting by the seaside
On the warmer side of cool
With the ocean spread before me
Like a blue and misty jewel
And if I jump into the water
Would an angel break my fall
So they say
So they say
On the warmer side of cool
What you feel in your heart is all
I'm sorry if I offend you
If I'm a little bit intense
But I never did intend us
To be sitting on the fence
And even though I'm guilty
Of making total sense
I'm happy when it's all
On the warmer side of cool
Repeat Chorus
(jack hues)
Times are hard and times will change
Things can never be the same
A love that's fallen, that makes no sense
It's better than indifference
I can't help all things I feel
But I don't need a compact seal
A love that's over, a love that's spent
I'll never be indifferent
Chorus:
I never want to love you in a half hearted way
Oh, oh, oh
(repeat)
I never want to love you in a half hearted way at all
So if I ever leave your hand
I know that you will understand
A love that's fallen that makes no sense
It's better than indifference
I never want to be that way
(Jack Hues)
Let's rent a place in town
Somewhere we can call our own
Let's knock these barriers down
We need to spend some time alone
Everything in the world has a name
Oh doesn't it make you feel
Like you've moved into a rented apartment
Everything is real
But it doesn't belong to you
Chorus:
All the words are dead, so we need to
Snakedance
All the words are dead, so we need to
Snakedance
Let's get that empty room
But first I really must be sure
Every word, every name you know
Will vanish when we close the door
Just say oh (All the words are dead)
Just say yeah (So we need to snakedance)
Just say Ugh (All the words are dead)
Just say Ooo (So we need to snakedance)
Wrap yourself around me
Help me start again
Wrap yourself around me
And girl let's snakedance
Snakedance
Don't give me talking, give me snakedance
All the words are dead, so we need to
Snakedance
Nothing more be said, so we need to
Snakedance
If logic is a glass bead game
And science is an iron wheel
And your life is a riderless horse
Dragging you by the heel
You need a place where you can concentrate
On what it is to be
Don't think, don't speak any language
The silence in the room
Is all that belongs to you
Wrap yourself around me
Help me start again
Wrap yourself around me
And girl let's snakedance
(Jack Hues / Nick De Spig)
It's good to have a good time
It's good to let your feelings be known
It's good to go out dancing
And it's good to have your people back home
The fashions, oh they're way out babe
I love the colour of your hair
Darling can we go now, oh no
I don't think that you care
Why do you laugh
When everybody's crying
Why do you laugh
When everybody's crying
Why do you, Why do you
Oh why?
Is it just that you don't notice
Is it so long since a tear passed your eye?
As your light is gone I'm gone
I seem to get me nowhere
The boys that try to raise a laugh
But there's nothing to smile about down there
And all the faces you're so bored
I know you've heard it all before
But what frightened me is all those people
(jack hues)
Tall trees in a blue sky
Stand together don't ask why
Stretch up to the blue sky
Pierce that ceiling if you try
You say these feelings do not last
Well I am gonna prove you wrong
You say our future's in the past
But I am gonna turn you on
Bright leaves in the sunshine
Pick me up when I feel down
Deep freeze if we don try
Seems like we go round and round
You say a dream will not last
Well I am gonna prove you wrong
You say our future's in the past
But I am gonna turn you on
Chorus:
You and me could last forever
If only we could stand together like
Tall trees in a blue sky
Like tall trees in a blue sky
It's a deep freeze if we don't try
Big man in a blue tie
Tells you things must be this way
Tall tree when the man dies
Haven't heard a word he say
You say these feelings do not last
Well I am gonna prove you wrong
You say our future's in the past
But I am gonna turn you on
I am gonna turn you on
I am gonna turn you on
I am gonna turn you on
You and me could last forever
If only we could stand together like
Tall trees in a blue sky
It's a deep freeze if we don't try
Like tall trees in a blue sky
(jack hues)
Living at speed
It's so hard, turns a year to days
The things that I need
It's so sad, but they will always change
So when you call my name
And the answer's not the same
Hold back the tears
The tears
Oh, it's raining
Though water's pouring down my face
There's no complaining
We must find another place
So when you're on your own
And you can't even telephone
Hold back the tears
I see your faces
I'll never see them again
The only traces
A single colour, you're in a frame
In a frame
So when you're on your own
Remeber we're all alone
(hues / burnand)
I'm picking up paper
I'm doing the things that
I never thought I'd do again
I'm writing you letters
I'm getting the better
Of things I thought I'd lose again
Chorus:
You know I wish I was your lover
Even if you dream of him
I wish I was your brother
Baby when you dream of him
If you dream of him?
If you dream of him
I'm sitting in graveyards
I'm doing the things that
I never thought I'd do again
I got in your backyard
I got so nervous
I never thought I'd breathe again
Repeat chorus
Baby I need you
Baby I'm in love with you
I wish I was your lover
Even if you dream of him
(oh if you dream, even if you dream of him
Oh if you dream, even if you dream of him)
Repeat chorus
Baby I need you
Baby I'm in love with you
I wish I was your lover even if you dream of him
In a rusty ruined tavern
Face to face they sat all night
One was good, another evil,
They had dice and ale to fight
Good was dressed in long white cloak,
Red coat wore another man
Wolves a-howled and ravens croaked
Three eyes watched at dice as one
In a rusty ruined tavern
Face to face they sat all night
One was good, another evil,
They had dice and ale to fight
Many bets were made by players
Many crowns were spent that night
One was good, another evil,
Thus they had a lot to fight
Final round - they're to throw
Once and winner takes the bank
Only one appeared for old man
But another's dice was blank
Evil looked with growing hatred,
Heat was both in air and mind
So he turned into the fire
Good had vision of a kind
One was thrown for eye and water
One - the water rears the vine
One - the rival is immortal
One - we have one face and sign
Nothing thrown for tree of wisdom
Nothing - arrow mistletoe
Nothing - is the evil guilty?
Nothing - is he friend or foe?
Fire vanished, empty chair
Was aside of good old man
Void in jug and void in memory
Were there three of eyes or one?
So the good rose up his brimmer,
Drained it dry and fell asleep
Ravens croak and wolves a-howling
Were enough for dreams to keep
Weaver smiled and turned the spindle
And a day replaced the night
One was good, another evil,
I can't sleep
when you're gone
nighttime speaks
and i'm too proud to break the firing line
i'm waiting for the gods to take my eyes
take them out beyond the border line
show me the road through eagles eyes
i know that way we haven't far to ride
books and hooks and paper cups
oh help me i can't sleep
its just a game but oh that game
something strong
crawling round my mind does not belong
pillows soft
tell myself again till i get lost
i'm looking for the space between the space
that gathers dust in every eager age
skate across the top of this great maze
skate as though i know i can't be saved
strangers from the future
now are speaking right though me
they lead the way to my escape
(jack hues)
I feel the tension
In your hand
I'm on a plane to a
Foreign land
So far away with no
Telephone line
I'm flying into spring
And leaving winter behind
I know it'll be winter
In your heart
Icy stone cold winter
All the time we're apart
Chorus:
As I look at you
Looking back at me
The wordless tears in your eyes
What's inside of you?
What's inside of me?
You may not realize for days and days
The consequences of that gaze
When love looks back at you
When love looks back at you
Love is a monster
With a need to devour
All who fall
In her power
And love is a sweet thing
With a need to caress
Security, stability and happiness
I'm flying, flying from
Reality
Where two things can be true
Simultaneously
Repeat chorus
I feel a cold wind
In the street outside
A plane flies low
Through the rain-filled sky
Winter's come to get me
And it's tearing me apart
As cool blue summer
Floods your open heart
(wang chung)
Darlin', I believe in love
Since I met you, baby
I believe in love
The way you hold me
My heart is stirred
You can control me
Without a word
Chorus:
Turn on you white light
In my open eyes
Oh girl, you hypnotize me
I feel your white light
You're so bright
I'm hypnotized
And as you're looking at me
It's a deep ecstasy
And no word is enough
Just shine the light in my eyes
And hypnotize me love
Darlin', I believe in love
In this hate-ridden world
I believe in love
Do you know the power
You have over me
Use it every hour
Shine the light on me
Repeat chorus
Turn me on (with your love)
Turn me on (with your love)
Turn your light around to mesmerise me
Turn me on, oo-oh
Just shine the light in my eyes
And hypnotize me love
Just shine the light in my eyes
And hypnotize me love
