Still of the night
Bad boys
Give me all your love
Looking for love
Crying in the rain
Is this love
Straight for the heart
Don't turn away
Children of the night
Here I go again
You're gonna break my heart again
Still of the night
In the Still of the Night
I hear the wolf howl, honey
Sniffing around your door
In the Still of the Night
I feel my heart beating heavy
Telling me I gotta have more

In the shadow of night
I see the full moon rise
Telling me what's in store
My heart start aching
My body start a shaking
An' I can't take no more

Now I just wanna get close to you
An' taste your love so sweet
An' I just wanna make love to you
Feel your body heat

In the Still of the Night
In the Still of the Night

In the heat of the day
I hang my head down low
An' hide my face from the sun
Thru the light of the day
Until the evening time
I'm waiting for the night to come

In the Still of the Night
In the cool moonlight
I feel heart is aching
In the Still of the Night

In the Still of the Night
I hear the wolf howl, honey
Sniffing around your door
In the Still of the Night
I feel my heart beating heavy
Telling me I gotta have more

Now I just wanna get close to you
An' taste your love so sweet
An' I just wanna make love to you
Feel your body heat

In the Still of the Night

Bad boys
I know you, you know me
I'm the black sheep of the family
I'm in an' out of trouble
I'm the talk of the town
I get wild in the street
When the sun goes down...

I steal around, like a thief in the night
Dancing 'til the break of day

Bad Boys
Running undercover of moonlight
Bad, bad Boys
Getting wild in the street,
wild in the city

I see you, you see me
Just a back street boy in society
With high-heeled women full of
champagne an' lies
Getting wild in the street
Til the hot sunrise
Stealing round like a thief in the night
Dancing 'til the break of day

Bad Boys
Runnign undercover of moonlight
Bad, bad Boys
Getting wild in the street
Wild in the city
Wild in the city
Wild in the city

Bad, bad Boys
Running undercover of moonlight
Bad, bad Boys
Getting wild in the street
Wild in the city

I know you, you know me
I'm the black sheep of the family
I'm in an' out of trouble
I'm the talk of the town
I get wild in the street
When the sun goes down...

I don't care what the people think
I can't hear what the people say
I steal around like a thief in the night
Dancing 'til the break of day
Bad, bad Boys
Running undercover of moonlight
Bad, bad Boys
Getting wild in the street

Wild in the city

Give me all your love
When I first saw you baby
You took my breath away
I knew your name was Trouble
But, my heart got in the way
I couldn't stop myself from reaching out
I couldn't turn away

I don't even know know your name
An' I can't leave you alone
I'm running round in circles
Like a dog without a bone
I know the game you're playing
But baby I just can't let go

So give me all your love tonite
Give me all your love tonite
I'll do anything you want
Just give me all of your lovin' tonite

I'll work hard everyday
To love and treat you right
I'll rock you in the morning
And roll you in the nite
Any way you want
I'm gonna prove my love for you...

So give me all your love tonite
Give me all your love tonite
I'll do anything you want
Just give me all of your lovin' tonite

I am blinded by your smile
And I'm crazy 'bout your walk
I shiver and I shake
When I hear your baby talk...
I'm a fool for your lovin', babe
Give me all your lovin' tonite

So give me all your love tonite
I'll do anything you want
Just give me all of your lovin' tonite

Anything you want from me
So give me all your love tonite
Give me all your love tonite
I'll do anything you want
Just give me all of your lovin' tonite

Tonite, tonite

Looking for love
I'm tired of waiting
An' closing my eyes
I'm asking myself
Why is it all my horizons
Are so far away

I look in the mirror
Don't like what I see
In my reflection
A stranger is staring at me
Looking for love

The love of a woman
The needs of a man
I try so hard to believe
But I don't understand
The search goes on

But over the mountains
Across the sea
I know love is waiting
I hear it calling to me
Calling my name

I'm looking for love all around me
Looking for love to surround me
The love that I need
To rescue the state of my heart

Alone again. It's always the same
I've just been marking my time
Since the day I was born
With no one to blame

The candle is burning
It's way down low
I just need someone
To show me the way to go
Which way to go

I'm looking for love all around me
Looking for love to surround me
The love that I need
To rescue the state of my heart

I'm looking for love
An' finding only heartache
Looking for a love
An' finding only heartache
I'm looking for love to rely on
Looking for love, a shoulder to cry on
I'm looking for love
To rescue the state of my heart

Crying in the rain
A black cat moans
When he's burning with the fever
A stray dog howls
When he's lonely in the night
A woman goes crazy
With the though of retribution
But, a man starts weeping
When he's sick and tired of life

I keep on dreaming dreams of tomorrow
Feel I'm wasting my time
Lighting candles in the wind
Always taking my chances
On the promise of the future
But, a heart full of sorrow
Paints a lonely tapestry

The sun is shining
But, it's raining in my heart

No one understands the heartache
No one feels the pain
Cos no one ever sees the tears
When you're crying in the rain
When you're crying in the rain
Crying in the rain

I can never deny
All the sweet things I have tasted
Tho' I've been mistreated
I keep coming back for more
I know where I'm going
There's no hope of absolution
I can't seem to separate
The good times from the bad

The sun is shining
But, it's raining in my heart

No one understands the heartache
No one feels the pain
Cos no one ever sees the tears
When you're crying in the rain
When you're crying in the rain

Is this love
I should have known better
Than to let you go alone
It's times like these
I can't make it on my own
Wasted days, and sleepless nights
An' I can't wait to see you again

I find I spend my time
Waiting on your call
How can I tell you, babe
My back's against the wall
I need you by my side
To tell me it's alright
Cos I don't think I can take it anymore

Is this love that I'm feeling
Is this the love that I've been searching for
Is this love or am I dreaming
This must be love
Cos it's really got a hold on me
A hold on me

I can't stop the feeling
I've been this way before
But, with you I've found the key
To open any door
I can feel my love for you
Growing stronger day by day
An' I can't wait to see you again
So I can hold you in my arms

Is this love that I'm feeling
Is this the love that I've been searching for
Is this Iove or am I dreaming
Is this the love that I've been searching for
Is this love or am I dreaming
This must be love
Cos it's really got a hold on me
You really got a hold on me

Straight for the heart
I'm coming round to see you
Kicking down your door
I've got to tell you girl
I really can't take no more...
Cos i've been hearing about you
Everybody says you're front page news
Layint it down, all around the town
Giving all the boys the blues

Stand and deliver in the name of Love
I'm coming after you
I'll tell you want I'm gonna do

I'm going straight for the heart
Gonna drive you crazy...
Going straight for the heart
I'm gonna drive you insane...

I never loved a woman
The way that I love you
I can't escape the feeling
You don't know what you're
putting me thru...

So stand and deliver in the name of Love
My heart is in your hand
So try to understand...

Straight for the heart

I'm going straight for the heart
Gonna drive you crazy...
Going straight for the heart
I'm gonna drive you insane...

You got the love I dream of
The kind that cost so much,
Just cover me with kisses, baby
Surrender to my touch...

Stand and deliver in the name of Love

So try to understand

I'll tell you what I'm gonna do...

Gonna drive you crazy...
Going straight for the heart
I'm gonna drive you insane...

Don't turn away
You say your dreams
Are burned to ashes
And your smiles
Have turned to tears
It seems to me
You welcome saness
As you surrender
To your fears

So what's a man like me
Supposed to do
When all I want is
Just to make love to you

Don't turn away
Before the night is over
Don't turn away
Before the night is gone
Don't turn away
The night may hold the answer
So don't turn away
Before the night
Before the night is gone

You say your heart
Is lost forever
And you're always gonna give
Your love in vain
So you paint yourself
A lonely portrait
And hide your love away again

You turn away from what you
feel inside
You can't forget all your foolish pride

Don't turn away
Before the night is over
Don't turn away
Before the night is gone
Don't turn away
The night may hold the answer
So don't turn away
Before the night is gone

So now i'm asking
You this question
Am I gonna give you
All my love in vain
Do you wanna
Drown in your own sorrow
Or are you gonna
Try to love again

Don't turn away from what you
feel inside
You should try to forget about
All your foolish pride

Don't turn away
Before the night is over
Don't turn away
Before the night is gone
Don't turn away

The night may hold the answer
So don't turn away
Before the night
Before the night
Before the night is gone

Children of the night
I'm getting ready
I'm in the mood to fool around
It's time for action
Now the boys are back intown

So turn up the music
Make it loud and proud
Let's see reaction
Let the spotlite hit the crowd

Don't hide what you feel inside
Don't let anybody stand in your way
Just let the music take you higher

Now are you ready to rock
Children of the Night
Are you ready to roll
Children of the Night

You got the power
I feel your fire in my soul
You got the fever
Cos you were born to rock an' roll
Don't run for cover
I'm gonna show you what I've learned
Just come a little closer
Come on an' get your fingers burned

Don't hide what you feel inside
Don't let anybody stand in your way
Just let the music take you higher

Now are you ready to rock
Are you ready to roll

Are you ready to rock

Now are you ready to rock
Children of the Night
Are you ready to roll
Children of the Night

I'm getting ready
I'm in the mood to fool around
It's time for action
Cos' now the boys are back in town

Don't hide what you feel inside
Don't let anybody stand in your way
Just let the music take you higher

Now are you ready to rock
Children of the Night
Are you ready to roll
Children of the Night

Here I go again
I don't know where I'm going
But I sure know where I've been
Hanging on the promises
In songs of yesterday
An' I've made up my mind
I ain't wasting no more time
But here I go again
Here I go again

Tho' I keep searching for an answer I never seem to find what I'm looking for,
Oh Lord, I pray
You give me strength to carry on
Cos I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams

An' here I go again on my own
Goin' down the only road I've ever known
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone
An' I've made up my mind
I ain't wasting no more time

I'm just another heart in need of rescue
Waiting on love's sweet charity
An' I'm gonna hold on
For the rest of my days
Cause I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams

An' here I go again on my own
Goin' down the only road I've ever known
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone
An' I've made up my mind
I ain't wasting no more time
An' here I go again
Here I go again
Here I go again
Here I go again
Here I go again

An' I've made up my mind
I ain't wasting no more time

An' here I go again on my own
Goin' down the only road I've ever known
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone

Cos I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams

An' here I go again on my own
Goin' down the only road I've ever known
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone
An' I've made up my mind
I ain't wasting no more time
Here I go again

You're gonna break my heart again
Now I know
I've seen that look
On your face before
When you realized
All the memories
Walked right out the door...

Now it's eye for an eye
A tooth for a tooth
No more hiding behind the truth
I'm gonna get exactly
What's coming to me

Chorus
You're gonna break my heart again
You never let me forget it
You're gonna break my heart again
But, you're gonna live to regret it

Now you say
I took advantage of you
When you never knew the score
But, you should know
We've been this way
One thousand times before

You told me once
You told me twice
It's down to me, girl
To pay the price
But, this time's the last time
That's for sure...

Repeat chorus

You talk of how our love
Was meant to be
And all the time
You sacrified for me...

So how could I forget it,
Why should I regret it
Cos when you told me you loved me
I knew it was lies
So no more crying, no more goodbyes,
Cos this time's the last time
That's for sure... break my heart...

Now you say
There is no one in the world
Can get the better of you
An' you should know
Cos you never made it easy
With the pain you put me thru

I told you once
I told you twice
It's down to you, girl
To pay the price
Cos this time's the last time
That's for sure...

Repeat chorus fade
