I'll supply the love
Chorus:
You supply the night, baby I´ll supply the love
You supply the night, baby I´ll supply the love

I see a horseman in the sky
It makes me turn and wonder why
I hear the same fourteen reasons
Must be the changin´ of the seasons

Chorus: You supply...

I met the girl across the sea
She saved my life and came to me
A tender night of dark persuasion
Could be my first and last occasion

Chorus: You supply...

Georgy porgy
It's not your situation, I just need contemplation over you
I'm not so systematic, it's just that I'm an addict for your love

Not the only one that holds you, I never ever should have told you
You're my only girl
I'm not the only one that holds you, I never ever should have told you
You're my only world

Just think how long I've known you, it's long for me to own you, lock and key
It's really not confusing, I'm just the young illusion, can't you see

I'm not the only one that holds you, I never ever should have told you
You're my only girl
I'm not the only one that holds you, I never ever should have told you
You're my only world

Georgy Porgy, pudding pie, kissed the girls and made them cry
Kissed the girls and made them cry, kissed the girls and made them cry

It's not your situation, I just need contemplation over you
I'm not so systematic, it's just that I'm an addict for your love

Not the only one that holds you, I never ever should have told you
You're my only girl
I'm not the only one that holds you, I never ever should have told you
You're my only world

Georgy Porgy, pudding pie, kissed the girls and made them cry
Kissed the girls and made them cry, kissed the girls and made them cry

Georgy Porgy, pudding pie, kissed the girls and made them cry
Kissed the girls and made them cry, kissed the girls and made them high

Georgy Porgy
Kissed the girls and made them cry, kissed the girls and made them high
Georgy Porgy
Kissed the girls and made them cry, kissed the girls and made them cry

Manuela run
Don't look now, you better watch that sword that's hanging over you
It's a long hard road and they will spit you out
When they get through with you
Don't hang your head, so the wise man said, or boy you'll soon be dead

Chorus:
You better run, run Manuela-uela run
They're gonna shoot you in the back with your own gun
You better run, run Manuela-uela run, Manuela run

There's no more time for living out your life, your sky is falling down
Don't close your eyes or make a wish on three
'Cause they will still be 'round
Don't hang your head, so the wise man said, or boy you'll soon be dead

Chorus: You better...

Don't hang your head, so the wise man said, or boy you'll soon be dead

Chorus: You better... (X amount of times)

You are the flower
You never lose a minute, if in it there is love
And "old man time" always pulls you through
It's better not to depend on the morning dew
For the rose you plant in your bed tends to you, hard and blue

Some folks take money, some take their life, some take forever to see
Blind faith, blind love, they're no mystery to me
You must take the time, for that's the fee

Chorus:
It's worth the pain that makes the tears
It's worth the light of a million years
Only your love I can't explain, you are the flower for my rain

You light the sun that shines from my eyes
It's all in return for what you're givin' me
You are the reason for the earth beneath my feet
And you kill the space that I call free

Chorus: It's worth...

You are the flower for my rain, you are the flower for my rain
You are the flower for my rain, you are the flower for my rain
You are the flower for my rain, you are the flower for my rain

Girl goodbye
Well I'm out on the road, and the devil's got my soul
And I'm looking for the Lord in New York City

Yeah I'm out on the run, got some heat, got a gun
If they don't find me soon, it'll be a damn pity

So it's

Chorus:
Goodbye girl, goodbye girl, girl goodbye
It's so hard to see the truth with the sun in your eyes
Goodbye girl, goodbye girl, girl goodbye
Must be in the way that she cries, must be in the way that she cries
Must be in the way that she cries

Oh there's smoke in the air and there's blood everywhere
But I'm hoping that the white man don't recognize me

I'm so sorry what I've done, and I say it not in fun
When I tell you that there's no one left inside me

And it's

Chorus: Goodbye girl....

So it's

Chorus: Goodbye girl...

Takin' it back
I think I'll go it alone, you should've shown me if you cared
Lies will turn a heart into stone, few would have known me if they dared

'Cause I'm takin' it back where it all began
The house on the cape, the place on the sand
I'd take it all back if it'd just make you understand

Girl how I've tried to forget you, now it would take more than I could buy
Sure I could lie to myself too, but that won't work seeing that I've tried

'Cause I'm takin' it back where it all began
I'd live in a shack eating out of a can
I'd take it all back if it'd just make you understand

Now that I'm feeling assured, you'd better watch your every move
Stop, think about every word, it's looking like you're going to lose

'Cause I'm takin' it back where it all began
The house on the cape, the place on the sand
I'd take it all back if it'd just make you understand

You should've shown me if you cared (repeats out)

Rockmaker
Don't know quite what to say, haven't seen you in seven ages
Can you tell that it's me, or is my picture on torn out pages?

Chorus:
And you think it's real, but it's just another future deal
And you know you're right, 'cause you've waited for it all night
Then you find yourself, sitting on a little shelf

Don't know quite what to do, I've been acting my life in phases
Is it really true that they're keeping us locked in cages?

Chorus: And you think...

Chorus: And you think...

Rockmaker (repeats 4x)

Hold the line
It's not in the way that you hold me, it's not in the way you say you care
It's not in the way you've been treating my friends
It's not in the way that you stayed till the end
It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you'll do

Chorus:
Hold the line, love isn't always on time, oh oh oh
Hold the line, love isn't always on time, oh oh oh

It's not in the words that you told me, girl
It's not in the way you say you're mine, ooh
It's not in the way that you came back to me
It's not in the way that your love set me free
It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you'll do

Chorus: Hold the line...

It's not in the words that you told me
It's not in the way you say you're mine, ooh
It's not in the way that you came back to me
It's not in the way that your love set me free
It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you'll do

Chorus: Hole the line...

Hold the line, love isn't always on time, love isn't always on time
Love isn't always on time, love isn't always on time, oh oh oh

Angela
Can't eat, can't sleep, can't seem to find time anymore
Somewhere she weeps, her hair gently brushes the floor
I know my way, I know that I'll find her somehow

Chorus:
Angela carries me back to the time
When I knew that her love was still mine
Angela's holding the child in her womb
And I pray that she will be calling soon

Cold moon, dark sky, I'm watching my mind disappear
She sits alone, not knowing that I am so near
Why can't she hear my voice as I call out her name

Chorus: Angela carries...

It's a silly situation, it's just infatuation, no need to be sorry

Can't eat, can't sleep, can't seem to find time anymore
Somewhere she weeps, her hair gently brushes the floor
I know my way, I know that I'll find her somehow

Chorus: Angela carries...

It's a silly situation, it's just infatuation, no need to be sorry

Hydra
There was a man
He walked alone
Searching for the girl who had just caught his eye
"I was a fool!" he cried
His mind had wandered
He blinked and the sky moved innocence smiling
He searched the city
She was nowhere to be found
Meanwhile she was floating downward, downward

Chorus:
Do you want your freedom
Do you want my love
Do you want your freedom
From the one you're thinking of

There lies a lady
Naked and yet not knowing
A spell claims her heart forever
Preyed upon by the wolves in Time Square
Fell into an byss of thin air
Innocence caged in sanctuary
There sat the Dragon Lord
Playing solitairy
Confined to rule the holy walls 'neath Hell's Kitchen

Chorus:
Do you want your freedom
Do you want my love
Do you want your freedom
From the man who lives above

Suddenly a voice was heard
A fast and brave young man appeared
The Dragon Lord turned and uncoiled his tail
Chased him to the stairway
Caught him halfway to the top
Sent him whirling down by the serpent's solstice
The Dragon Lord descended down on him
She turned to look but saw only darkness silence

Chorus:
You don't want your freedom
You don't want my love
You don't want your soul caught
By the Satan I'm thinking of
				
top

St. George and the dragon
Can you tell me where I might find the Hydra
Is he wearing a familiar face
Does he still live below Seventh Avenue
With the princess dipped in lace And not a victim of circumstance
We drew lots for his soft underbelly
Now his fate is sealed with my lance

Chorus:
I can tell by the look in your eye
You've never seen the man with nothing to say
I can tell by the look in your eye
You'd better watch yourself
St. George is on his way

Is it true that he's a mighty warrior
And a viper of the first degree
I've been sentenced here to slay the giant
Geld this fear I cannot see

Can you tell me where I might find the Hydra
Is he wearing a familiar face
Does he still live below Seventh Avenue
In the slums of Satan's grace

Chorus: I can tell...

I've been waiting so long
Oh 99
Where did we go wrong
Oh 99
I love you

I keep breaking your heart
Oh 99
How can we be apart
Oh 99
I love you

Chorus:
I never thought it would happen
I feel quite the same
I don't want hurt you anymore
I never knew it would work out
No one to blame
You know I love you 99

99
You keep holding my hand
Oh 99
They don't know who I am
Oh 99
I love you

99
I can't take it no more
Oh 99
Oh we were so sure
Oh 99
I love you

Lorraine
I've heard a lot of stories
So tell me if they're true
Oh I would die for you
Knowing that you're mine
You tell me that you're sorry
You say your heart is new
Oh I will cry for you
Call me and we'll dine It's almost over Lorraine
Can you still feel the pain
Do you still want me to love you
It's such a funny day
Whoah oh oh
It's such a funny day

Tonight we sail for Paris
Where the streets are paved with gold
Your eyes have blessed my soul
Your lips, they've blessed the wine

We'll tame the Gulf of Lyons
I'll wed thee in Marseilles
We'll turn the moon to blood
If only there were time

Chorus: It's almost over...

All us boys
All us boys like to drink and smoke
Pull off a joke
Blow your minds and leave
Hot tires behind

All us boys like to fight and kick
Carry a stick
We're getting older
And acting bolder

Chorus:
Mothers tell your daughters
To stay away from rock and roll
'Cause it may entice them
And mesmerize them
Even satisfy their soul

I'm sure mama told you 'bout making love
AnAnd the skies above
With its fallen angels
Diet pills
Female thrills
But mama never told you 'bout
All us boys

Chorus: Mothers tell your...

All us boys just want to play
All us boys won't run away

Mama
Mama
I don't love you anymore
Money's
Got me crawlin' on the floor

Lover
I'm so ashamed that I must go
Funny
Somehow I thought by now you'd know

Chorus:
Girl you'd better take my hand
And say what you mean to say
(And she said)
"Stay as long as you can
But don't wait till you're thrown away."

Mama
Please throw me out in the cold
Woman
The love you bought waas never sold

Chorus: Girl you'd better...

Mama
I don't love you anymore
Sorry
I'm not the boy you're looking for

(See the girl with they eyes on fire
Now he know she's the one he desires)

White sister
How can you say you love me
When you don't even love yourself
You live your life like a jagged knife
Just waiting on the shelf

How can you live for tomorrow
When you curse the night and day
The minutes pass through the hour glass
As you let them slip away

Chorus:
Do you love me
White sister
Do you love me when I play your game
Do you love me
White sister
Do you love me
When I call your name

How can you touch the sorrow
With a leather gloved hand
When you summon the winds of anger
Just as fast as you can

You crucify an orphan
With the rainbow in your eyes
Then you send out invitations
And address them with his cries

I don't even know what's right
I can say
That you put up some kind of fight
I've been branded
I've been stranded
I'm so thankful for what I've been handed
I wish I could say that you're mine
Such a card game

Chorus: Do you...
				
top

A secret love
He never felt that she cared
Turning to leave
Feeling her lonely stare
If only a secret love

Left more than a broken heart
Like a fool thnks he felt the start
Of what he hoped for so long

He waits though he knows she's gone
Alone he climbs
Until he falls

Only a secret love brings more than a broken heart

Like a fool I have played the part
Of what I hoped for so long
The need to belong...
In love

Gift with a golden gun
It's a twelve o'clock depression, my mind is in recession
And I can't answer you
It's the day I can't remember, I think it's late September
Or is it April blue

I can't find peace of mind in a world so unkind
It's just a little heartbreaker, just a little heartbreaker, yeah

It's a sticky situation when I'm near hallucination, and I refuse to bow
They used to think me funny when I promised them their money
But they're not laughing now

Chorus:
I can't find peace of mind, then she calls me just in time
She's a gift with a golden gun, and she's got them on the run
She's a gift with a golden gun, 'cause she knows what they've done

Chorus: I can't find...

Just what they've done, done, done, done, done
What they've done, done, done, done, done
Just what they've done, done, done, done, done...

English eyes
What you're sayin' it never really crossed my mind
I hear playin' and everybody's keepin' time
I'm recallin' that girl I met in London town
She was strange, young and tender and narrowed all my choices down

Chorus:
We ran away into the night hypnotized
You carved your name right next to mine, English Eyes

I was tryin' to read her lips and knew the time was drawing near
I forgot what she said but I remember how she whispered in my ear
I can hear laughter coming from the places we once knew
There were stories from a stranger out of nowhere but they seemed so true

Chorus: We ran...

English Eyes, English Eyes

English Eyes

Red sky warning, girl you really put a spell on me
Never told me 'bout the daddy you refused to please
You took the bishop when the king was standing right in front of you
There's nothing in it if I can't have a girl with eyes like you

Chorus: We ran... (repeats 2x)

English Eyes, yeah, English Eyes, English Eyes

Live for today
Baby, I'm a liar when I tell you that I just don't care
Babe, I've got to have you but you're never ever, ever there
Hey, the game is over, give it up right now
You're teasin' me, baby, how do you expect me to be without you

Chorus:
You let your hair down low
You didn't want to know about lovin' me, babe
Let's live for today, tomorrow may never come
Let's live for today, tomorrow may never come
But you just can't tell anymore

Baby, you're a teaser but you just don't dare
Baby, keep your secrets, this whole thing just ain't fair
Tonight is almost over, tomorrow you'll be gone away
So please baby, won't you stay

A million miles away
I don't want to know the reason why you don't love me
I don't want to know the reason why you don't care
I don't want to know the reason why you're leavin' me
I'm not the only one that lost my love way down there - way down there

I don't want to hear the reason why you don't need me
I don't want to hear the reason why you don't stay
I don't want to hear the reason why you're seeing him
All I know is that I want you back, but you're

Chorus:
A million miles away and it's killin' me inside
There's a stranger in a carriage and he's takin' her out tonight
The devil's ridin' on a full moon and he sends his love
When I'm a million miles away

I don't want to be the reason why you don't love me
And I don't want to be the reason why you don't care
I don't want to be the reason why you're leavin' me
I'm not the only one that lost my love

Chorus: A million miles...

He sends his love and I'm a hundred million miles away

Goodbye elenore
I wanna give her something she'll remember
And she say, "No, no, no, no, no"
I wanna squeeze her tight and not offend her, yeah
She said, "No, no, no, no, no"
(And he thought that she was coming back, but she wrote him a letter)
Sealed it with a kiss and placed it in front of my door

Chorus:
Seems as though you've got your way before
You left me standing helpless just when I need more
You broke my heart for the last time, you broke my heart for the last time
You broke my heart for the last time, goodbye Elenore

I tried to tell the boys all about her, yeah
And they say, "No, no, no, no, no"
They told me she was loose, no doubt about her
Well I say, "No, no, no, no, no"
(And he thought that she was coming back, but she wrote him a letter)
Sealed it with a kiss and placed it in front of my door

Chorus: Seems as though...

I think I could stand you forever
Would you say no if I asked you for your hand
Could you believe in the same words that I don't understand
And would you cry if I told you I must go

Chorus:

I've been waiting such a long, long time, I think I could stand you forever
I've been wanting you a long, long time, I think I could stand you forever

Would you say no if I asked you for this one chance
Am I a fool to believe that this night is circumstance
I wish that for once you could see the look in your own eyes

Chorus: I've been waiting...

Chorus: I've been waiting...

I think I could stand you forever

Turn back
Only the wind sang the words he could hear
Born of the sand washed ashore on a tear
Time wrote the lines on his face like a scroll
Love is a loss to the man with no soul

Chorus:
Run through the darkness he hears - turn back
There's no survivors, you can't turn back
Dreams keep him turning back the years

Raising his sail cast away on his own
Motherless child on a sea all alone
Morpheus calls but they won't lay him down
Creatures of midnight appear with no sound

Chorus: Run through the...

Run through the darkness, turn back the years, turn back the years

If it's the last night
I don't know if you'll understand
But I'm hopin' that you'll follow me down to the waterway

Listening to the ticking of the hands on a clock working overtime

Chorus:
If it's the last night it oughta be left for lovin', girl
If it's the last night it oughta be left for lovin', girl
If it's the last night it oughta be left for lovin', girl

Now you're here standing next to me
I've seen your face on every girl that I've held since you went away
It's getting late and I have to know
I'm mending the wings of a heart that was broken not so long ago

Not quite a year since she went away, Rosanna yeah
Now she's gone and I have to say

Make believe
Chorus:
Why don't we make believe we're in love again
Who said the crimson moon doesn't shine
Where do people go when they're lookin' for that one of a kind

Why don't we make believe that we're sorry
Why must we hold it all inside
Where do lovers go when they're runnin' and there's no place to hide

Always with me - the day we met in the foreign rain
You were content and - we went our seperate ways
No matter which way thw wind blows now, hang on to it anyhow
Don't ever say it could never be the same

Chorus: Why don't we make...

Always with me - oh that haze on a summer day
You were content and - you took it all away
I did come here to change your mind, lead you on and waste your time
All alone in the evening, gettin' day

Why don't we make believe

Chorus: Why don't we make...

Why don't we make believe, why don't we make believe

I won't hold you back
If I had another chance tonight
I'd try to tell you that the things we had were right
Time can erase the love we shared
But it gives me time to realize just how much you cared

Now you're gone, I'm really not the same,
I guess I held myself to blame
Time can erase the things we said
But it gives me time to realize that you're the one who's sad

Chorus:
You know I won't hold you back now, the love we had just can't be found
You know I can't hold you back now

Now that I'm alone it gives me time to think about the years that you were mine
Time can erase the love we shared
But it gives me time to realize just how much you cared

Good for you
If you're dreamin', son don't you rise, I never get lost, so deep into us
I won't give up until you give in, but I know you must realize

I could be good for you, you could be good for me too

It's a feeling
It's a feeling, I don't belong here
But man's on the outside looking in, wonderin' losin' his old margin

It's a feeling, you never belonged to me
First you're on the up 'n up, only to down in sea
Only to down in sea

You're fighting me, you knew me, all desires
No lock or key can hide the truth you're keeping from me

It's a feeling...

Afraid of love
You stole my heart the moment you came to town
I said hello but you were gone when I turned around
You can't get away, can't get away, even if you try now
I wanna tell you but the words just can't be found

I like the way you move and just the way you are
I can't take anymore, 'cos girl, you're pushin' too hard
You can't get away, can't let you go, what's a boy to do now
You got me askin' myself how I survived this far

Chorus:
I gotta get away from you, girl
'Cos I've never been afraid of love 'til I met you
Never thought a girl could make me feel the way you do
Never been afraid of - never been afraid of love 'til I met you
Ooh, yes you say

Can't be something that you never ever had
When I start to think about you, it makes me laugh
You took me by surprise, I saw it in your eyes, I never had a chance, girl
Now that I see what you are, it doesn't hurt so bad

Chorus: I gotta get away...

Lovers in the night
It's just the soul that matters, and I don't know why
You know she's gonna make you cry, you know she's gonna make you cry
She'll have you walk beneath the ladder you were meant to climb
You know she's gonna make you try, you know she's gonna make you try

Chorus:
Ooh, you know we're lovers in the night
Ooh, you know we're lovers in the night

It's just the soul that matters, and keeps her satisfied
You know she's gonna make you cry, you know she's gonna make you cry
She'll have you wishin' that you had her come your way to shine
You know she's gonna make you try, ooh, you know she's gonna make you high

Chorus: Ooh, you know...

It's just the soul that matters, and keeps her satisfied
You know she's gonna make you cry, you know she's gonna make you cry

Ooh, you know we're lovers in the night

We made it
Bad time for love - you caught me on your birthday
I could feel your heart break into a hundred pieces
We were too torn apart, now it seems so senseless
And if we're clever, we'll put it together, it may be forever

Chorus:
We made it, made it, made it before, I know that we can make it again
We made it, made it, made it before, I know that we can make it again

Down on my luck, you arrived just in time, my angel
Thought you'd given me up, like a rhyme that needs no reason
I want you enough to keep my life untangled
If we're clever, we'll put it together, 'cos it may be forever

Chorus: We made it...

I want you enough to keep my life untangled

And I know we can take it, we got to take it, girl

If ever we can make it, we gotta make it

Waiting for your love
Hate, don't let her go, 'cos in the midnight eye she wins a blow
Eyes, give every drop, this ain't the way that should've made her stop
I just gotta know, know I'd feel the flame she used to grow
Smile, don't leave me now, 'cos you're the reason she's here anyhow

Words be gentle when you speak into her heart
'Cos if it breaks, she may not come again

Chorus:
I've been waitin' for your lovin', it's been here all the time
Right in front of me
I've been sittin', waitin' for your love, and all the time it's been here
Right in front of me

Love will get your pride, she might kiss as you're like even tide
Song, be in her heart, especially when we're apart
Love, be by my side, 'cos if she leaves there ain't no place to hide
Soul, be with her now, 'cos you're the first one she knew anyhow

Words be gentle when you speak into her heart
'Cos if it breaks, she may not come again

Chorus: I've been waitin'...

Words be gentle when you speak into her heart
'Cos if it breaks, she may not come again

I've been sittin', waitin' for your love, and all the time it's been here
Right in front of me
Draw the line, I'll step across, even further I give in, you got me, yeah
I've been sittin', waitin' for your love, and all the time it's been here
Right in front of me, yeah
Just separated by ten thousand miles, you're not alone, girl you got me, yeah
Guess I needn't tell you that I'm not around, I'm inside, you got me, yeah
I've been waitin' for your love, it's been here all the time
Right in front of me

Africa
I hear the drums echoing tonight
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
She's coming in 12:30 flight
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation
I stopped an old man along the way
Hoping to find some long forgotten words or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say , "Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you"

Chorus:
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless longing for some solitary company
I know that I must do what's right
As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serangetti
I seek to cure what's deep inside, frightened of this thing that I've become

Chorus: It's gonna take...

Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you

Chorus: It's gonna take...

Carmen
Last night she ran away
Left a letter by the telephone
She didn't take the time to say goodbye
He knows he has to find her
Find a way to make her come back home
She stretched her wings and learned to fly

Chorus:
Carmen
Carmen, don't you care for me
Carmen
Carmen, don't you care
Carmen, don't you care for me

He calls but there's no answer
Operator, ring it one more time
He thinks of her and shuts his eyes
She wears the ring he gave her
Something magic, and it once was mine
Will she be thinking of him tonight?

Chorus: Carmen...

He has to find her
I really miss that girl
He steals into the night
He'll go mad without her
I'm so mad about her

Lion
I got my feet back on the ground
We were headed for disaster
Woke up, I got ready for work
You weren't around
I was fast, but you were faster
Such a night, feeling right
Nothing I could say
(Then you went away)
Have to know, why'd you go?
Couldn't even beg you to stay

Chorus:
Lyin' in a sweat, tryin' to forget
All of my lovin' for you girl
Lyin' in a sweat, tryin' to forget
All of my lovin' for you girl

Huntress, you compell me with your eyes
It's my heart that you're enslaving
Serpent dance
You really hypnotize
To the lion's den is the road for me you're paving
In a trance, saw you dance
And you made romance to me
(Don't take it away)
Took a chance, circumstance
And it wasn't hard to see

Chorus: Lyin' in a sweat...

You're the one that made me feel this way
So alone without your smile
You took my heart
Left my soul to pay
Just to watch me crawl on another smile

Stranger in town
I remember it was late one night
in the middle of a dream
woke up in a pool of sweat
thought I heard a scream
Ran over to the window sill
stuck my head out for a peek
Dressed in black was a man I didn't recognise
running down my back street
My heart skipped a beat

Chorus:
You better watch out, there's a stranger in town
You better watch out, there's a stranger in town
You better watch out when he comes around
Don't make a sound

The morning paper and the head-lines read: Danger to the queen
Buckingham Palace better tighten things up
The son of a bitch is mean.
Vendors on the corner just doin' their job
acting like nothing's new
Scotland Yard's still looking for him
but he doesn't leave a single clue
What can they do?

Chorus: You better watch out..

Who's this man who fell out of the sky?
What's he done and where's he live?
How can a man who's a criminal be a hero to the kids?
The old couple swear that the Riper's back
they say it's him all right.
The young girl says it's Jesus
and he won't be back again tonight
I wonder who's right?

Chorus (2x): You better watch out..

Angel don't cry
Uncanny woman
You weaved your spell on me
I was taken by the look in your eyes
For all the wrong reasons
You must have been a spiteful child
Full of anger
Raised by the hand of a duchess, a mother and a heathen

You laid your tender trap of crystals and wine
Your neck was sweetly laced with a scent I did not mind

Chorus:
I can't lie
I can't lie
I can't lie
Angel don't cry
Angel don't cry

Queen of darkness
You got your way with me
You caressed ev'ry part of me soul
You got what you were after
A savage and an angel
You innocently hunger for love
Still shivering from the coldness of you laughter

You laid your tender trap of crystal and wine
Your neck was sweetly laced with a scent I did not mind

How does it feel
Morning's here
I feel so far away
It seems like I felt this before
All alone
Sun burns my skin
I can't live with pain anymore

And with you on my mind
Thinking of all that we've said
Were they just words
We'll live to regret
Why won't you stay?

Chorus:
How does it feel to make me fall apart
Could this be love or just a broken heart
How do you feel when you see me cryin' again

Times have changed
Is love at an end?
What makes us wonder why?
Rearranged
Just pretend
I can't stand the thought of goodbyes

And with you on my mind
Thinking of all that we've said
Were they just words
We'll live to regret
Why won't you stay?

You better wrap yourself around me
It's a miracle that you've found me
I can't fool myself any longer
We're both willing, young and able
Let's put our cards on the table
This feelin's gettin' stronger
I see the sunlit tears in your eyes again
Now I realize
Maybe it's the right time
Oh, maybe you're the right one
Ooh, and now I understand
You could've slipped through my hands
Well, I just can't wait anymore
There's a chance we can make it
We just gotta take it

Chorus:
Endless are the nights
I stay with you
Endless are the dreams
You made come true
Forever in my arms
You're the reason tonight our love is endless

We better get ourselves together
Before we hit bad weather
And we can't go any further
Won't you give me some affection
Point me in the right direction
This storm is blowin' harder
Here comes that voice deep inside again
And it says to me
That maybe it's the right thing
Oh, maybe you're the right one
Ooh, and now I understand
You could've slipped through my hands
Well, I just can't wait anymore
There's a chance we can make it

Isolation
I'm stranded here in a dream and there's no ticket back
I feel a cold wind blowin', my future looks black
You left me here and you've taken all my yesterdays
I guess to stand alone is the price that I pay
Now look what you've done to me
Because we just disagree
I'm out here alone and it's you that I'm waiting for

Chorus:
Can't go livin' without you, girl
It doesn't matter what you say or do, girl
Can't go livin' without you, girl
Isolation

I close my eyes and you're dancin' in the moonlight with me
I try to touch you, but you, you had to get free
I turned around and you're nowhere left in sight
I'm just a lone survivor, you know it ain't right
Now look what you've done to me
Because we just disagree
I'm out here alone and it's you that I'm waiting for

Chorus: Can't go livin'...

I remember holding you just yesterday
But you're memory is all that I have today
We were talking 'bout promises we once had made
But you never came back
Why'd you run away

Mr. friendly
Get out I won't even listen
I can't hear a single word you say
Enough of your intimidation
Don't tell me 'bout the price I pay
Take off don't want your kind of trouble
Don't wanna see you hangin' 'round my place
It's late and here's the situation
I never wanna see your face

You just drag me down
And I've got the scars to show
I think you oughta know

Chorus:
You got the best of me
Mr. Friendly
You got the best of me

Don't ask can't promise any favors
Don't want to owe you in anything again
Bad luck it's your occupation
Can't you see you are your own worst friend
I'm gone the masquerade is over
I'm cashin' in the silver tray
So long I can't buy this evil game you play

You just drag me down
And I've got the scars to show
I think you oughta know

Chorus: You got the best...

He's standing in your way
You smile like it's okay
Knowing you'll show him somehow
You're running out of time
Too late to change your mind
No one can save you now

Change of heart
I got your letter stating I'm the only one
Are you forgetting all the damage that I've done
Are you waiting, contemplating why you changed your mind
Can't push my luck, good ones are getting hard to find

I'm wondering now if everything will be the same
I feel so empty knowing I'm the one to blame
And all along I never thought I stood a chance
Those lonely hours, memories of you did enhance

Chorus:
Deep in the night when I need you so
You are the light, I can't let you go
You've been the one from the very start
You've got the power, girl, to change a heart
You've got the power, girl, to change a heart

The timing's right for all our diff'rences to end
We've come so far from all the places that we've been
My heart is telling me that you're my closest friend
It's alright, hold on tight, and do it all again

Holyanna
Your hair's a mess you better put on a dress
And get your feet back on the ground
You fix your eyes for some city guys
Who wouldn't save you if you drowned
You hang on Forty-second street

Saint Helen says you're missin' school
And I'm wonderin' where you are

Chorus:
Holyanna
Holyanna
Girl, what you do to me
Holyanna
Holyanna
Girl, you're a blue-eyed mystery

You read your books until nobody looks
And then you slip out after dark
You steal my love then say you're sorry
And do your penance in the park
You fooled your mother when you skipped ballet
To paint your face for the midnight show
And in the morning you knelt beside your bed
And prayed she'd never know

Till the end
I know what's on your mind
Let's lay it on the line
All the things were missin'
Look I just came back to town
Drink that green dragon down

I know my heart, I know it well
Bet your analyst forgot to ask that question
We're at the start and time will tell

Chorus:
Till the end
Your name will touch my lips like prayin'
Till the end
I'll be the keeper of the words your heart is sayin'
Till the end
You and I will learn a language new and unspoken
Till the end
We'll be the ones who hold the key to a lock that's open

Girl not so long ago
A boy that didn't know
That he was hurtin'
Pushed somebody down
They fell and hit the gound
But i never meant for you to be that person
You know my heart, you know me well
It's never been my style to take advantage
We're at the start and time will tell

We can make it tonight
I'm counting on you
Gotta know, the time has come to follow through
Drive straight through the night

So break away from this pain, girl
We've held out much too long

We can make it tonight
If you give me the sign
And I'll be by your side

Ya gotta know that nothing is impossible
The things I've seen with these eyes
Precious dreams

Without your love
It's late at night, nothin's feelin' right
Since you've gone away
I think I know why you left this time,
But it's still hard to say
I nearly lost it, when he came around you
Now I'm holdin' it all inside and it's killin' me

We used to meet at an old cafe in Chi-Town
At first you could hear the wind stop,
Then my heart would pound
I remember everything you used to do, girl
Now I'm learning something that you already knew

Chorus:

It's not the same without your love
Every night and every day, girl
It's not the same without your love
You don't have to be afraid
It's not the same without your love
Every night and every day, girl
It's not the same without your love

I sa you through the door, with your motor runnin'
I can still hear the sound
I knew then, when you asked him in, you let your guard down
You're talking soft, don't tell me,
I know you're sincere
I just called to tell you I'm the only one here

Chorus: It's not the same...

Can't stand it any longer
Standin' on thin ice
Walkin' on a fine line
Never seem to buy, enough for you
If you're lookin' for a way out
Then you're headed for the right place
Givin' up is something I can't do

Ooh you got sharp claws
Always got your back up
Venom in your eyes, and blood so blue
Hangin' on a black tie
Sippin' on a half shell
Holdin' all the cards, and a joker too

Bridge:
You should have told me sooner
I would have let you go
Now you're driving me crazy

Chorus:
I can't stand it any longer
When you pay the price for freedom
It ain't wrong girl
I can't stand it any longer

Dancin' on hot coals
Playin' with a live wire
Sneakin' out the back door, you're so cool
If you really wanna move on
Then there's nothing left to say
Here's a ticket for the bus stop
I'm no fool

It takes some time
God knows how long
I know that I can forget you

Promises we once made
What are the reasons why

Someday I'll try to forget them

Find out what your people are sayin'

Feel the heat - in the street
Find out what the people are sayin'

Makin' rules for games that they're playin'

When you meet - on the street
You find out all along they're playin'
Me against you

I've heard that all before
Just make this one exception
Give me your affection

Could this be love
There was a young girl
Ridin' on the wind
She had all of the answers
Didn't need to pretend
I remember - she was the only friend I ever needed

Now I wonder
How to work it all out
My hands are tremblin'
I've got this feelin' now

There's a bit of thunder
Pounding in my heart
A little uncertainty
That's been there from the start
Don't tell me all the look you gave
Were the ones that I misread
'Cause all I hear now

Could this be love
That I hear calling
Could this be love

Got a fast education
Holding you in tears
Someone finally hurt you
After all these years
Got to get my message to you somehow

Too late to think this through

Stop loving you
Reflections in my mind, thoughts I can't define
My heart is racing and the night goes on
I can almost hear a laugh, coming from your photograph
Funny how a look can share a thousand meanings
Well-intended lies, contemplating alibies
Is it really you, or is it me I'm blaming
A distant memory flashes over me
Even though you're gone, I feel you deep inside

Dance beneath the light with that look in your eyes

Chorus:
I can't stop loving you, time passes quickly and chances are few
I won't stop till I'm through loving you, girl

There's a window in a heart, I've tried to look through from the start
You're never really sure what someone else is thinking
Someone's broken something new, another altered point of view
Just a certain someone's conscience playing

I held it in my hand, I did not understand
What lives inside the wind that cries her name
Tried to catch a shooting star, what seems so close can't be that far
I'm living in a dream that's never ending

Dance beneath the light with that look in your eyes

Chorus: I can't stop loving...

Dancing with that look that's in your eyes

Mushanga
I can't forget you, my little Mushanga, I keep a place in my heart for you
The days of waiting, they keep getting longer, and not a thing I can do
I was a poet, a magazine writer, sent to report on political views
It was by chance, through a lens that I met you, a Cape town girl with no shoes

You were runnin' down the road, I was going your way
You stopped and turned around, and lent you my hand
You smiled though you were suffering, I didn't understand, then

Chorus:
You broke into my heart, I saw your eyes and then I knew
You broke into my heart, like the wind and rain that followed you
You broke into my heart, had the Lord above forgotten you?
You broke in from the start, and all my tears belong to you
Mushanga, oh, Mushanga, oh

I sat and watched as she danced by the fires
Through ancient songs did the tale unfold
They sang of diamonds that came from their mountains
And loss of lives mining white man's gold

I had to leave and go back to Manhattan
Where all my stories are bought and sold
I know the city would surely be saddened, if what I knew could be told

Chorus: You broke into my...

It's been so long since I last heard your laughter
So many letters and still no news

You know my heart is with you

Stay away
You gave me too many chances, now it's drivin' us apart
I keep on runnin' with the boys, girl, but then you knew that from the start
It must keep building up inside you, 'cause you never let it show
I know I'm hanging on the edge now, but I won't let go

I never meant to hurt you, but something was on my mind
Just give me one more chance, we can make it this time

Chorus:
Stay away, stay away from my heart - bet I'm trying my best
Stay away, stay away from my heart

If you gave me three wishes, I'd throw two of them away
I've seen that look in your eye girl, I'd use the last one this way
We've been from rags to riches, but your love can't be bought
I'm just a junkyard dog, girl, who's afraid he's been caught

You're standing in the shadows, watching everything that I do
And I know the way things must look, it couldn't be further from the truth

Chorus: Stay away...

Remember how it used to be girl, makin' love like it's the last time
We held each other close, not knowing what we'd found
You felt the pounding of my thunder, as your rain was pouring down

I never meant to hurt you, but something was on my mind
Just give me one more chance, we can make it this time

Straight for the heart
Boy meets girl on the playground of life
Falls in love for the very first time
Late at night he sees her alone, but she's the type that can never be owned

He can't get her off his mind, but she knows he'll get over her in time
And the world goes round and round

Chorus:
She goes straight for the heart, she serves it sweet and cold
But she goes straight for the heart
It's just the only thing that she's ever known

Boy sees girl on the poor side of town
A city princess with her very own crown
He's too young to be taking such a chance
'Cause she walks the streets in the name of romance

Everywhere she goes he's there and she knows, he's just another fool who cares
And the world goes round and round

We need hope for the future, and the young need a chance to survive
No one knows the pain that's felt by the innocent, they're
Fighting to stay alive, can no one see the tears in their eyes

Chorus:
Only the children, only the children cry, only the children

Why do those who have plenty ignore those with nothing at all
Why must the ones just beginning, stand with their backs to the wall
They keep asking for answers and we keep on telling them lies
They only want to understand what they feel inside
The hunger that tears them apart
It's the one thing they've known from the start

Chorus: Only the children...

A thousand years
Day after day, I feel myself slowing down, what does it mean?
The air has changed, it's getting harder to breathe, or so it would seem
Sail me away to a distant shore, where everything's fine

Chorus:
A thousand years, lost in the blink of an eye
If the sky keeps fallin', the world will come tumblin' down
In a thousand years

Tell me my friend, can you imagine a place free of boundaries and lies
There's blood on the wind and it's come all of the way from faraway skies
Take me away to a different world where everything's fine

Chorus: A thousand years...

A thousand years, one day for every life
Just keep on going, we'll find you a home underground, in a thousand years

Sail me away to a distant shore, where everything's fine

Chorus: A thousand years...

A thousand years, one day for every life
Just keep on going, we'll find you a home underground, in a thousand years

These chains
Everybody keeps talkin' about you, I can't lie anymore
Been too long, what went wrong? It's a mystery
Why you ever walked out that door
What direction should I go? Girl what's next for me, I don't know

Chorus:
Is it gonna get easier than tryin' to break these chains around my heart
Ohhh ohhh
Does it ever get easier, without you I can't pull these chains apart
Ohhh ohhh

I see your face when I look in the mirror
I feel your touch but you're not there
Wakin' up, had enough of this dream of mine, girl this just isn't fair
What direction should I go? Girl what's next for me, I don't know

Chorus: Is it gonna get...

Day by day, until they break, ohhh ohhh

Chorus (repeats): is it gonna get...

Home of the brave
Everything's gonna be alright boys, help is on the way
Hold your head up high now, there's no need to cry now
We're not running anymore

Leave the politics behind boys, they're not working anymore
There's so much more at stake here, it's make or break here
Haven't we been here before - tell me what we're waiting for

Chorus:
You gotta remember, you don't have to be afraid
You still have the freedom to learn, and say what you wanna say
You gotta remember, don't let 'em take away
The land we call the home of the brave

Who sings the song of the people, you don't hear it anymore
I heard it late last summer, to the beat of a different drummer
It never sounded quite like that before

So you're trying to shake this feeling, that trouble's right outside the door
You lie awake each dark night, like a time bomb wound up too tight
A storm in waiting, just offshore - tell me what we're waiting for

Chorus (3x): You gotta remember...

Africa
I hear the drums echoing tonight
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
She's coming in 12:30 flight
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation
I stopped an old man along the way
Hoping to find some long forgotten words or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say , "Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you"

Chorus:
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless longing for some solitary company
I know that I must do what's right
As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serangetti
I seek to cure what's deep inside, frightened of this thing that I've become

Chorus: It's gonna take...

Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you

Chorus: It's gonna take...

Georgy porgy
It's not your situation, I just need contemplation over you
I'm not so systematic, it's just that I'm an addict for your love

Not the only one that holds you, I never ever should have told you
You're my only girl
I'm not the only one that holds you, I never ever should have told you
You're my only world

Just think how long I've known you, it's long for me to own you, lock and key
It's really not confusing, I'm just the young illusion, can't you see

I'm not the only one that holds you, I never ever should have told you
You're my only girl
I'm not the only one that holds you, I never ever should have told you
You're my only world

Georgy Porgy, pudding pie, kissed the girls and made them cry
Kissed the girls and made them cry, kissed the girls and made them cry

It's not your situation, I just need contemplation over you
I'm not so systematic, it's just that I'm an addict for your love

Not the only one that holds you, I never ever should have told you
You're my only girl
I'm not the only one that holds you, I never ever should have told you
You're my only world

Georgy Porgy, pudding pie, kissed the girls and made them cry
Kissed the girls and made them cry, kissed the girls and made them cry

Georgy Porgy, pudding pie, kissed the girls and made them cry
Kissed the girls and made them cry, kissed the girls and made them high

Georgy Porgy
Kissed the girls and made them cry, kissed the girls and made them high
Georgy Porgy
Kissed the girls and made them cry, kissed the girls and made them cry

I'll be over you
Some people live their dreams
Some people close their eyes
Some people's destiny
Passes by

There are no guarantees
There are no alibis
That's how our love must be
Don't ask why

Bridge:
It takes some time
God knows how long
I know that I can forget you

Chorus:
As soon as my heart stops breakin'
Anticipating
As soon as forever is through
I'll be over you

Remembering times gone by
Promises we once made
What are the reasons why
Nothing stays the same

Bridge:
There were the nights holding you close
Someday I'll try to forget them

Chorus: As soon as my heart...

I won't hold you back
If I had another chance tonight
I'd try to tell you that the things we had were right
Time can erase the love we shared
But it gives me time to realize just how much you cared

Now you're gone, I'm really not the same,
I guess I held myself to blame
Time can erase the things we said
But it gives me time to realize that you're the one who's sad

Chorus:
You know I won't hold you back now, the love we had just can't be found
You know I can't hold you back now

Now that I'm alone it gives me time to think about the years that you were mine
Time can erase the love we shared
But it gives me time to realize just how much you cared

Chorus: You know I won't...

You know I won't hold you back now, the love we had just can't be found

You know I can't hold you back now, the love we had just can't be found

Little wing (tribute to Jimi Hendrix)
Well she's walking through the clouds
With a circus mind that's running round
Butterflies and zebras
And moonbeams and fairy tales
That's all she ever thinks about
Riding with the wind.

When I'm sad, she comes to me
With a thousand smiles, she gives to me free
It's alright she says it's alright
Take anything you want from me, anything
Anything.

Fly on little wing,
Yeah yeah, yeah, little wing

Without your love
It's late at night, nothin's feelin' right
Since you've gone away
I think I know why you left this time,
But it's still hard to say
I nearly lost it, when he came around you
Now I'm holdin' it all inside and it's killin' me

We used to meet at an old cafe in Chi-Town
At first you could hear the wind stop,
Then my heart would pound
I remember everything you used to do, girl
Now I'm learning something that you already knew

Chorus:

It's not the same without your love
Every night and every day, girl
It's not the same without your love
You don't have to be afraid
It's not the same without your love
Every night and every day, girl
It's not the same without your love

I sa you through the door, with your motor runnin'
I can still hear the sound
I knew then, when you asked him in, you let your guard down
You're talking soft, don't tell me,
I know you're sincere
I just called to tell you I'm the only one here

Chorus: It's not the same...

English eyes
What you're sayin' it never really crossed my mind
I hear playin' and everybody's keepin' time
I'm recallin' that girl I met in London town
She was strange, young and tender and narrowed all my choices down

Chorus:
We ran away into the night hypnotized
You carved your name right next to mine, English Eyes

I was tryin' to read her lips and knew the time was drawing near
I forgot what she said but I remember how she whispered in my ear
I can hear laughter coming from the places we once knew
There were stories from a stranger out of nowhere but they seemed so true

Chorus: We ran...

English Eyes, English Eyes

English Eyes

Red sky warning, girl you really put a spell on me
Never told me 'bout the daddy you refused to please
You took the bishop when the king was standing right in front of you
There's nothing in it if I can't have a girl with eyes like you

Chorus: We ran... (repeats 2x)

English Eyes, yeah, English Eyes, English Eyes

Rosanna
All I wanna do when I wake up in the morning is see you eyes
Rosanna, Rosanna
I never thought that a girl like you could ever care for me, Rosanna

All I wanna do in the middle of the evening is hold you tight
Rosanna, Rosanna
I didn't know you were looking for more than I could ever be

Chorus:
Not quite a year since she went away, Rosanna yeah
Now she's gone and I have to say
Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna yeah
Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna yeah

I can see your face still shining through the window on the other side
Rosanna, Rosanna
I didn't know that a girl like you could make me feel so sad, Rosanna

All I wanna take is a night you'll never ever have to compromise
Rosanna, Rosanna
I never thought that losing you could ever hurt so bad

Chorus: Not quite a year...

Chorus: Not quite a year...

Afraid of love
You stole my heart the moment you came to town
I said hello but you were gone when I turned around
You can't get away, can't get away, even if you try now
I wanna tell you but the words just can't be found

I like the way you move and just the way you are
I can't take anymore, 'cos girl, you're pushin' too hard
You can't get away, can't let you go, what's a boy to do now
You got me askin' myself how I survived this far

Chorus:
I gotta get away from you, girl
'Cos I've never been afraid of love 'til I met you
Never thought a girl could make me feel the way you do
Never been afraid of - never been afraid of love 'til I met you
Ooh, yes you say

Can't be something that you never ever had
When I start to think about you, it makes me laugh
You took me by surprise, I saw it in your eyes, I never had a chance, girl
Now that I see what you are, it doesn't hurt so bad

Chorus: I gotta get away...

hold the line
It's not in the way that you hold me, it's not in the way you say you care
It's not in the way you've been treating my friends
It's not in the way that you stayed till the end
It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you'll do

Chorus:
Hold the line, love isn't always on time, oh oh oh
Hold the line, love isn't always on time, oh oh oh

It's not in the words that you told me, girl
It's not in the way you say you're mine, ooh
It's not in the way that you came back to me
It's not in the way that your love set me free
It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you'll do

Chorus: Hold the line...

It's not in the words that you told me
It's not in the way you say you're mine, ooh
It's not in the way that you came back to me
It's not in the way that your love set me free
It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you'll do

Chorus: Hole the line...

Hold the line, love isn't always on time, love isn't always on time
Love isn't always on time, love isn't always on time, oh oh oh
