When somebody loves you
It's no good unless he loves you all the way
Happy to be near you
When you need someone to cheer you all the way
Taller than the tallest tree is
That's how it's got to feel
Deeper than the deep blue sea is
That's how deep it goes if it's real
When somebody needs you
It's no good unless he needs you all the way
Through the good or lean years
And for all the in-between ye...
And what costume shall the poor girl wear
To all tomorrow's parties
A hand-me-down dress from who knows where
To all tomorrow's parties
And where will she go and what shall she do
When midnight comes around
She'll turn once more to Sunday's clown
And cry behind the door
And what costume shall the poor girl wear
To all tomorrow's parties
Why silks and linens of yesterday's gowns
To all tomorrow...

Angel Street
------------
Iva Davies / Robert Kretschmer
------------
she draws the curtain wide
and brushes back her hair
she stands before the mirror
wondering what to wear
but she knows no one will care
so easy to forget
just another sad affair
the girl on angel street
so she waits for the call
knowing only too well
a photograph a dusty window
where the sun strays in
everywhere ...
Her arms around a flag of blue
His colors flying black and white
She hears the voice between the lines
He hears the warning, he turns his black
Anybody's war who is there to catch the pieces
Anybody's war faces we don't recognize
She catches every last regret
She holds it gently like a dying star
He stands like a small boy in the street
Throwing rocks and stones into the crowd
Anybody's war wh...
Sunk deep in the night
I sink in the night
Standing alone underneath the sky
I feel the chill of ice
On my face
I watch the hours go by
The hours go by...
You sleep
Sleep in a safe bed
Curled and protected
Protected from sight
Under a safe roof
Deep in your house
Unaware of the changes at night
At night
I hear the darkness breathe
I sense the quiet despair
Listen to the silence
At night
Someon...
Ooh, don't talk to me
Well, you tell me I'm the one then you tell me not to come, oh yeah
Way you call me names way you play those games, oh yeah
Do you believe it? Do you believe it?
Could it be another man? Well, I just don't understand
Baby, you're so strange
She got high healed shoes, she got rhythm and blues, oh yeah
She got her red dress on 'n' her legs are long, oh yeah
Do you believe i...
In Berlin, by the wall
you were five foot ten inches tall
It was very nice
candlelight and Dubonnet on ice
We were in a small cafe
you could hear the guitars play
It was very nice
it was paradise
You're right and I'm wrong
hey babe, I'm gonna miss you now that you're gone
One sweet day
Oh, you're right and I'm wrong
you know I'm gonna miss you now that you're gone
One sweet day
One sweet day

The Paris hearts all line the boulevarde
she shows her hand and says, quot;please take a cardquot;
bouquets and lace
a femme fatale face
she breaks the hearts along the boulevarde
but beggers buy love on the boulevarde
and red light stains the stairs and life is hard
God only knows
it never pays
'cause they all die young on the boulevarde

Break These Chains

so tell me where are you now
now you know the way it feels
was always easy for you
they never let you down before
I saw you turning to go
I saw you walk away from me
I
I don't have to play your game
I never did belong in here
I don't hear you any more
now you listen to me 'cause I'm
standing on the outside
watching...
She comes walking down the street
That's the kind, hey,
That's the kind I want to meet
I think I'm making it up
I should be putting it down
and it's beginning to show
I get it fixed in my head
and it won't let go
Oh, I can't help myself
when I feel this way
I want to be someone else
When I get this feeling
it gets in my system
I can't put the brakes on
Now she's walking next to me
that's the p...
I ask myself should I put my finger to the left, no
I ask myself should I put my finger to the right, no
I say it really doesn't matter where I put my finger
Someone else will come along and move it
And it's always been the same
It's just a complicated game
A little girl asked me should she part her hair upon the left, no
A little girl asked me should she part her hair upon the right, no
I sai...
I've got a pocket full of holes
Head in the clouds the king of fools
You've got a ribbon of rainbows
The sun in your eyes burning through
Could be I'm happy and sad
Could be I'm losing my head over you
Well, you've gotta be crazy, baby
To want a guy like me, yeah
You've gotta be out of your mind, crazy
So if I'm dreaming don't wake me tonight
If this is all wrong I don't want it right
'Cause y...
Oh oh......So dangerous, like freedom she fades away
The vision that chains the heart, foundations that fall apart
Well, I know this place east, west, points to the nation
North, south, cut the connection
I said, stealer, steal her, we cross the border
Steal love, still life, we cross the border
And time builds the wall, the wall that is standing still
And she breaks the spell, the spell that ...

Promises, promises
Old tired, worn out second hand sentences
One thing with you is certain
You're a really sad person, so sad
Disappointed a few people
When friendship reared its ugly head
Disappointed a few people
Well, isn't that what friends are for?
What are friends for?
What are friends for?
You, you're just a really bad person
Who won't? You won't, listen to anyone, no, not you
With thos...
I never counted on this
Guess that's the way that it goes, yeah
You used to be someone I knew
Somebody I could understand but
Now, I don't know what to do
And I don't know who you are, no
All those things, I hear you say
You talk that way, you're a stranger and I
I don't know where to begin
Don't want to hear it again
I don't believe anymore
And this is all I know
I know, I've heard it before
...
???...with kinds of job.??? ???Kinds of class, huh????
Uh-huh-uh...Uh huh
Window frosted in the rain, dusty pages, broken lines is all I have
Candle shadow in the flame of the moments that we try to start again
Of many things that I remember too many now that you forget
How can you tell me that it's gone? How can you turn and walk away?
Don't say it's over, don't turn away, a love so fine
Now ...
Electric blue
I just freeze
Every time you see through me
Help me, baby
Tell me, what can I do?
Electric blue
If a boy had a chance
A chance with someone like you
Are you gonna break his heart?
Let him cry for the moon?
Are you hiding somewhere behind those eyes?
I just freeze
Every time you see through me
And it's all over you
Electric blue
On my knees
Help me, baby
Tell me, what can I do?

Fatman, fatman, fatman, fatman
On Second Avenue, night life is second nature
Black jazz in numbers land
Affairs are all night long
The girl's best friend is a fatman
He gives her pearls and diamonds
Sometimes she looks so blown away
She hangs her head against the window
Toasting brandies to her shadow
Champagne from Paris, France
Cigars, the best Havana
The boys don't like the way you do thing...
You got a long face, no place
Everywhere a bad case of nowhere news
And the weather man telling me
All of the time looks like rain
Put on my Cadillac boots
And my magazine jeans though the colors don't rhyme
And I won't stop walking till I turn the blue world upside down
I say, hey, to the girl in the moon
There's a mad clock ticking inside of my brain
And it might just explode I got a subway ...

I'm playing my cards on the table no secrets, no sense of direction
It's tough, baby, it's no party, I said something I lost a connection
And it's all I can do to forget about U, loving you is such a fascination
'Cause I've loved you so long and my love is so strong
But you know a certain party's missing
I'll sit by the window, now you sit anywhere that you want to
Sitting in the sunshine now ...
Standing at the limit of an endless ocean
Stranded like a runaway, lost at sea
City on a rainy day, down in the harbor
Watching as the gray clouds shadow the bay
Looking everywhere 'cause I had to find you
This is not the way that I remember it here
Anyone will tell you, it's a prisoner island
Hidden in the summer for a million years
Great southern land
Burned you black
So you look into the la...
Dusty wind blew 'cross the high plains
As the stranger rode into town
With a certain reputation
For the ladies and the gun
Walked to the barstool casual
Just as easy as you please
He was bound to do some damage
With those Valentino eyes
Well, the barmaid was an angel
And she looked so out of place
And she said her name was Sunset
She was different from the rest
And she couldn't help but notice...
Everyone is trying to get to the bar.
The name of the bar, the bar is called Heaven.
The band in Heaven plays my favorite song.
They play it once again, they play it all night long.
Heaven is a place where nothing ever happens.
Heaven is a place where nothing ever happens.
There is a party, everyone is there.
Everyone will leave at exactly the same time.
Its hard to imagine that nothing at all...
I, I wish you could swim
Like the dolphins
Like dolphins can swim
Though nothing, nothing will keep us together
We can beat them, forever and ever
Oh, we can be heroes just for one day
I, I will be King
And you, you will be Queen
Though nothing will drive them away
We can be heroes just for one day
We can be us just for one day
I, I can remember
I remember
Standing by the wall
By the wall
And ...
When everything goes wrong, sometimes
It makes no sense, there once was a time
I should have known better then although
You may try, it won't come your way again
Hey little girl, where will you hide?
Who can you run to now?
Hey little girl, where will you go?
Who can you turn to now?
So why should I care if somebody let you down
That's nothing new, I know just what that can mean
Well, the way ...
It's always cold inside the icehouse
Though the rivers never freeze
There's a girl outside the icehouse
I can see her clearly through the trees
Now she's dreaming of a new love
And she hopes he'll be there soon
She's got so long to wait for him
'Cause he needs another year to get there
She'll wait another lifetime longer
There's no love inside the icehouse
Devil lives inside the icehouse
At le...
The rest you need for just one kiss
How could you know? You'd pay the price
You try in love, just once or twice, no last regrets, no sacrifice
Hey, hey, hey...Hey, hey, hey...Ooh Did you follow me?
Ooh Just walk into the fire hey Into the wild
Well, there she goes, that friend of mine
If I could read between the lines...My one last chance, I let her go
So when you talk, don't talk of love, ooh...
There's a mist over Broadway
Breathing cool sheets of rain
Lights his last cigarette
And turns his back to the wind
She says, baby, I don't know
Just how to explain
And I can't see the sense
And I can't play this game
But he's not even listening
He stares at the ground
And she won't ever know
What was on his mind
Well, now he's a rebel without a cause
Hey c'mon, let's make a deal
See your name...
Secrets of lovers whisper tonight
Broken down angel
Got lost in the cold daylight
City is screaming, I look for your eyes
Someone to lean on through the night
Your music talks to me, hits me tonight
One candle burning, I hear you say
So let there be love
Let there be love, oh yeah
Love, let there be love, oh yeah
Heals and it hurts
She leads you to heaven's door
And leaves you for dirt
Someone...
Give you my heart and soul
I give you everything
Put it all in your hands
Now, is it such a sin?
Uh huh, 'round again
Taking that back step one more time
Oh no, there she goes
Look at that girl, love in motion
I'm gonna follow you
Anywhere you go
And when I make you mine
Won't ever let you go
Uh huh, 'round again
Taking that back step one more time
Oh no, there she goes
Making it easy feel lik...
We must play our lives like soldiers in the field
But life is short i'm running faster all the time
Strength and beauty destined to decay
So cut the rose in full bloom
'til the fearless come and the act is done
A love like blood, a love like blood
Everyday through all frustration and despair
Love and hate fight with burning hearts
'til legends live and man is god again
and self-preservation ru...
Watching them come and go
The templars and the saracens
They're traveling the holy land
Opening telegrams
Torture comes and torture goes
Knights who'd give you anything
They bear the cross of coeuf de leon
Salvation for the mirror blind
But if you pray all your sins are hooked upon the sky
Pray and the heathen lie will disappear
Prayers they hide the saddest view
Believing the strangest things...
Hey She raves and she's talking, she's a dirty girl and she's disgusted
Some people are not so lucky...Oo oo...Lucky me...
A red light on Notre Dame, I don't drink a ???osh-osh??? champagne
Some people are not so lucky...Oo oo...Lucky me...
Well they stare from the windows, and they lean on the buttons
As the cars die crashing in the street
I feel like Attila the Hun, I feel like Nagasaki
Some...
There's a noise upstairs in the attic
It's the shuffle of worn out shoes
And the scent of the oil and brushes
Drifts down like a pale perfume
And he says, "I I am a man
A simple man, a man of colors
And I can see, see through the years
Years of a man, a man of colors"
And the old man rubs his failing eyes
And takes a moment to watch the view
From a window nobody knows is there
He can see the e...
When he's dancin', baby, knows just how to move
When he's in a jam, he knows just what to do
He's talking', baby, knows just what to say
Think what you want, he don't care anyway
But something is missing, Mr. Big...Something is missing, Mr. Big...
You can see him, yeah he's always on the town
And he's dressed to kill he always looks so fine
When he wants to walk he'll walk all over you

I used to be the one who made you feel so safe and strong
I could always make it right when everything was going wrong
I don't know why it seems no different now I'm on my own
And I don't know what it is that scares me when I'm all alone
I can't believe that everyone I know would lie to me
When they all tell me that I'm not the man I used to be
Don't want to hear about the things that I alread...
She tells me that she has to go, she says that it's all over now
She knows how to break me, she knows that it's easy
But when the rain is coming in, she calls me on the telephone she says
quot;Where did you get to? So come on I need youquot;
It's a mysterious thing, well it's something I can't explain
Mysterious thing, got me under the spell again
It's a mysterious thing, don't believe what my...
A winter palace
From the Arabian Nights
White waves on an ocean
Gems from a golden age
Life in your new world
Turning round and round
Making some sense
Where there's no sense at all
No promises
But if you should fall
Stars die in the silence
Of Arabian Nights
Wind washes the seasons
In these days of a golden age
Life in your new world
Turning round and round
Making some sense
Where there's no ...
Inside this city, on this empty train
hoping that the late night never lets me go
I travel to the station, to the underground
Where the dark is a friend to me
we race along the subways
he's a cold hand on my shoulder
he has a plan to get you nowhere
and the wind is a friend to me
we're singing on the sidewalk
with the gay boys in the back street
there's a new band and a new beat
well, I rememb...
I'm finding my feet
absolutely midseason mediocre street
I got nothing to say
want nothing to do
with people like you
there's nothing to see
you see there's nothing like a good time
well I remember
I heard it on the radio
and then I
read it in a magazine
steppin' on the same shoes
and I've got nothing to do
'cept turn over stones
and head for home
or someone like you
I stare at the ground
and ...
Twenty story buildings coming down on me
Mountain ranges sliding into the sea
Rivers of blood, burning red
I got a broken heart, and a broken head
I got a broken heart, and a broken head
I had a little accident, nothing too serious
Take a look at this place, take a look at this mess, nothing too serious
If you close your eyes it may go away, nothing too serious
We can do it again some other da...
Out on the highway, where does it go? Don't think I really care now
And I just know, I don't need you now, does it matter going nowhere
Well I said to myself, I got to leave her, far behind but
But now I wonder, it's all very wrong, you're always on my mind, yeah
Night and day, mile after mile with only the time between us.
'Cause it was something I had to do, you've got to take some chances

Here in this empty room, the memories will remain
You may never learn, you make the same mistakes again
One by one...You count them one by one...
Days that were lost and found, old memories will remain
Here in this empty room, you count them one by one
One by one...You count them one by one...
Here in this empty room, you count them one by one
Oh hoh...Oh hoh...
One by one...You count them one...

it isn't meant to be this way

you have to face another day

One step one step that takes you closer to heaven
One road one road that stretches out ahead
One word one word that drives you to the point of decision
One wave one wave that closes on a drowning man
One man who never knew the meaning of resistance
So now the turning tide will take another prayer 2 paradise paradise
Tonight tonight, a mist is rolling with the river
Tonight tonight, the rain is...

Well, I heard the news, get it down, get it down in black and white
Sensation fills the headlines, Coast To Coast
And with a single step, you make the move
Standing face to face face to face face to face face to face
And when you know there's nothing left to lose left to lose
You got to make the choice make the choice makes the choice
Oooh...You've gotten shot down, shot down, shot down

Sidewalk, sleep on the sidewalk, the ragman stands at the end of a line
His eyes burn hard in the light of day, so proud of the American Way
But it's a lie, yeah, lie, and you believe every word

And when the walls come down on the American dream
You're gonna sleep on the sidewalk

She's not the usual kind
She's made of mindless metal
She's not exactly normal
But I don't care

Got to be the three
Got to be the four
Behind the scanners and tapes
She's programmed for perfection
But sometimes simple mistakes
Get by without detection
Her figures need correction

the sailors drown

and see them drink and fall around

the radio plays out of tune

The masquerader in the mirror
appears to be a certain stranger to me
he slips a film of glow through glow on his hand
and paints my features where his face ought to be
young flesh, young frame
slow pulse, no pain
inside my fit on skin
sometimes I wonder just where to begin
I need action
inside my fit on skin
I make a novel of everything
it's like fiction

Well I wonder some times as I look at you, was it so very long ago?
There were times, there were so many times
Holding on, and it comes only once in your life
There maybe just a chance, I'll live with you, maybe you
Maybe someone like you...Someone like you...
If a day should go by I'm without you, moves so slowly it never ends
All the while wondering how it could be
Does he know that it comes...
We don't know this place
this wasted stretch of land
and these steaming horizons
it's locked in our past
it's stragely so familiar
like a scar on our memory
no sign of the ancient heroes
who gave us this one last hour
it's so still, there's so few of us here
there's no sound here at all
the last light disappears
with the Sons of decay
the ones left to stay
For years we were lost
we slept as sy...
Just we two people in this perfect place
Just you and me and all this time to waste
So through the long nights we could watch the waves
Wake up the sun to see the dawn of day
We sail away, sail away, sail away, searching for Spanish Gold
We sail the seas, seven seas, seven seas, sail across endless skies
O come on now, come on now, come on now, I give U precious days
So stay with me, stay with...
Ooh, ooh...ooh, ooh...uh, uh, uh...Mmm, mmm, mmm...
Now as the day is closing, hold every moment
It may slip through your hands
Evening falls so slowly, so something warm as only summer nights can
Every sound that you're hearing, every smile that you catch
Is somehow lost in the crowd
And I know it's not easy, oh girl you know me
There's no need to go now
All those tears you've wasted All thos...
If there were no tomorrows
If there was just one more chance
I'd take it again, you know I'd take it again
You turn and it's gone forever
In time you forget
You know that's love, it's only love
And no matter where the days have left you
Everyday ends at the street cafe, the street cafe
And no matter where the road may take you
Everytime it brings you back to the street cafe, it's where you hav...
On the edge of the bay
A day just like the next
They gather their nets
And face their boats around
Over the rooftops
Hear the hum of wings
In seventeen seconds
The world explodes
And it buries the night, a brave new sunrise
With a sweep of the sword, a blood red sunrise
You'll never see the faces
Of the fishermen
But you may see their shadows
Burned against the wall
And in the temple grounds
N...
Hah
They say there's only one tonight
Oh yeah we're gonna make some changes, mmm-hmmm
Those boys are gonna shake their spades tonight
Raise the doubt yeah, re-arranger...re-arranger...
So if U think it's safe, yea you think it's fine, well U better think again
Because we're coming out, oh yeah we're coming out
We're gonna turn it all upside down
Oh yeah we're taking this town nah nah nah nah
O...
On the edge of the city in the dust and the daylight
There's a place where the truth cannot hide
There's no hell and no heaven, no sense in believing
All you have is your hope and your pride
Rusting iron, bricks and paper, hold each other for shelter
So you sleep and you call it a home
You may just hear the sound of the ???Calm Before The Storm???
In my heart of the country far away from the t...
One of those days
That just comes and goes
It's not so special
She watches the birds
Shat rest on a ledge
Outside her room
The wallpaper old and faded
A crack in the window pane
The radio just keeps playing
Playing that same old song
She smiles to herself
They think that I'm strange
They say I'm a dreamer
But I don't complain
Though I don't have much
To call my own
She's not a movie star, no

The mountain I've seen...The mountain I've seen...
Talking about money, we sweep to Mexico
And though when there's a sun and a river

The song to everything follow their way to the valley
And when does the summer avoids?
The mountain's song...The mountain's song...
Voice of the wind...Voice o...
Hear me crying, pushing back, lost and lonely I know it so very well
Spending hours by the river, walking through the still of night
Oh was it here that I saw you?
Way downtown there's a promise of something
In the lights on the avenue
As he turned the corner maybe just a step away
There's no mistake when you find it
This time it feels so right, yes I know it, this time I can be so very sure
O...
Just give me the sign and I'll be walking out that door
Don't want to remember this the way it was before
As the rain falls on the ocean and the desert feels the sign
We let it die here, let it slip right through our hands
It's too late now...too late to love, too late to cry
So don't look back...another place, another time
Too late now...to start again, to wonder why...too late now

She moves like a mystic
Like a priestess, tall and pale
She lays down the mystery
All her secrets are unveiled
Wherever I look, I see her there
Wherever I go, you know she's there
And she takes possession, she has control
Next to you, I can touch the fire
And when the fever takes a hold
Next to you, I can touch the fire
Her words fall in echoes
Ringing bells like gypsy rhymes
She has the power...
The soldiers standing on the shore, shake up their golden shields
You watch them from your room, high on the city walls
In the distance on the shifting sea, a thousand coloured sails
Is this the moment you made? Is this the way that you planned?
You know it won't be long now
The finest treasures of kings, all of those precious things
They never tempted you
So as you stood in the ruins, how cou...
Well you want
to be in the gang
and you've got
got to join the team
to be on the team
you must play to win
you play to win
you may not make it home
up the hill, down again
you're the one
every body wears a badge
uniform
soldier boys
we've got plans for you
a brand new game
we call it "mass control"
when you grow up
it's not so obvious
dirt on your face
holding your broken toys
up the hill, dow...
Listen
if you listen
you will hear an endless heartbeat
on the inside
through the walls
the sound is crawling
down the corridors and halls
it cracks the ceiling
the windows and the doors
all the rest won't listen
though the walls have ears
but they never really look
they just stand and stare
they're all standing
staring at the walls
who put the writing on the walls?
will no-one ever know?
Oh, ...
There must be something we can talk about
And maybe, there's something here that we can do
No matter what your friends say, don't go too far
Remember there's just one thing
Whenever you come this way
You know I wouldn't get you down
I just like talking to you
It's raining outside
I shake my shoes, downstairs
You never stop dancing
You don't make much sense
No matter what your friends say
Don't...
I know it isn't right, ah yeah
faith has been broken
and if I have to wait I will
I will be waiting
'cos I watched as the rain come down
and I held it in the palm of my hand
some things will never change
it's just a matter of time
oh I, I believe
I will find you there
someday
and I will follow
whereever you lead
where the river meets the sea
there's got to be a way, ah yeah
faith is still brea...
