"When Love Turns To Pain"

"When Love Turns To Pain"



She's got the touch of an angel
She's got hypnotizing eyes
No sign of badness
No evidence of lies

Sometimes it feels like I'm floating on cloud nine
Like changes in the weather
She flies on different feathers
Sometimes it feels like feels like I'm slowly dying

She's got the looks of a lady
But she's lethal like a knife
She performs to perfection
And brings you back to life
She puts magic in her power
She puts heat into your blood
But somehow I can't handle it
And wonder what to do
I can dream on forever
But I want a love that's true
But somehow she has a hold on me
With a grip so tight
And I recognize the feeling
And I know... and I know that's why
There's no remedy
When love turns to pain

And I know she's got me
And man, it hurts
But the pain is sweet
You can believe my words
And my mind goes blind
And I don't give a damn
Now you think I'm crazy
So what if I am?

Yesterday I stared into the dark horizon
Now I burned my skin to your fire
It's just the kind of light I desire
Baby I can cherish all your treasures now
Your love tells me how

She's got the looks of a lady
But she's lethal like a knife
She performs to perfection
And brings you back to life
She puts magic in her power
She puts heat into your blood
But somehow I can't handle it
And wonder what to do
I can dream on forever
But I want a love that's true
But somehow she has a hold on me
With a grip so tight
And I recognize the feeling
And I know... and I know that's why
There's no remedy
When love turns to pain

"When The Lady Smiles"

"When The Lady Smiles"



When the lady smiles,
You know it drives me wild
Her lips are warm and resourceful
When her fingertips,
Go drawing circles in the night
Then the mood is soft and sensual, hu-u
And I love it, yeah I love it
It's the answer to all my dreams
Every time it feels like the earth is shakin'
It doesn't matter, a glass is fallin',
I hear it shatter,
Maybe it's raining, faster and faster, shadow dancin'
Together oh I, I'm a bettin' on the game of love
Oh oh oh I, I'm bettin' that love is gonna come out
When the walls no longer shout, back at me
And I'm feelin' proud

When the lady smiles,
She holds me in her hand
As a matter of fact,
She could always let me down
But when the lady smiles,
I can't resist her call
As a matter of fact,
I don't resist at all
'cos I'm walking on clouds
And she is leadin' the way

My friends tell me,
She's the beast inside your paradise
I guess you've heard it all before
A fallen angel,
That has got you hypnotized
And that always needs some more, hu-u
And I love it, yeah I love it
She's done nothin' to mislead me
'cos every time we meet,
The earth is shakin'
It doesn't matter, a glass is fallin'
I hear it shatter , maybe it's rainin'
Faster and faster, shadow dancin'
Together oh I, I'm bettin' on the game of love
Oh oh oh I, I'm bettin' that love is gonna come out
When the walls no longer shout, back at mea
Nd I'm feeling proud

When the lady smiles,
She holds me in her hand
As a matter of fact, she could always let me down
But when the lady smiles,
I can't resist her call
As a matter of fact,
I don't resist at all
'cos we're walkin' on clouds
And she is leadin' the way

Oh no, oh no, oh nooooo......

"Where Will I Be"

"Where Will I Be"



Where will I be
When the sun won't shine anymore
Where will I be
When the moon won't smile anymore
Where will I be, where will I be

Maybe there's a place to hide from the frost
A place where life can get lost
Until then the end is near
And the skies will never be clear

Where will I be
When the sun ain't shining
Where will I be
When the moon ain't smiling
Where will I be

Where will I be
When the children stop crying
Where will I be
When the sun comes near flying

Faster than a bird
Is this again the birth of the earth
No place to hide from the warmth
Where the rays can do no harm

Where will I be
When the sun is burning
Where will I be
When man is yearning, for deliverance
Now, where will I be

Where will I be
When the children stop crying
Where will I be
When the sun comes near flying
Faster than a bird
Is this again the birth of the earth
No place to hide from the warmth
Where the rays can do no harm
Where will I be
When the sun ain't shining
Where will I be
When the moon ain't smiling
Where will I be

Where will I be
When the sun is burning
Where will I be
When man is yearning, for deliverance
Where will I be

"Whisper In A Crowd"

"Whisper In A Crowd"



You can't play with feelings
The way you sometimes do
And hide your true intentions
Behind those eyes so blue

Always pretending
You're nobody's fool
Now until forever
The world was made for you

You cheat, you lie
You hurt, my pride
You fake desire
Upset my life
You fly solo,
Make up your own rule
You break your word
As if I don't know

Whisper in a crowd
Just like a silent scream
Ah ah ah ah,
No one, will hear
Your cry of fear

You made your seven wishes
None of them came true
Like your expectations
You gotta face the truth

"Who Do You Love"

"Who Do You Love"



I walk 47 miles of barbed-wire
Wear a cobra snake for a neck-tie
Got a brand new house built on a hill
Made out a rattle snake hide
I got a great big chimney way on the top
Made out of human skulls
So come on over here, you cute little thing
And tell me now, who do you love
Who do you love, who do you love

A voodoo man, he took me by the hand
He said: woo baby, I can understand
Crushed a bone on a ju-ju stone
Rolled his eyes and he cast a spell
Said: who do you love
Who do you love, who do you love, who do you love

The light was black and the night was blue
And down the alley I crept on through
A shot of a pistol, somebody screamed
You should a heard just what I seen
Who do you love, who do you love
Who do you love, who do you love

I got a tombstone head and a graveyard mind
I'm just twenty-two and I ain't stole a dime
Got the eyes of a wolf, and a gator smile
I lived long enough, and I don't mind dyin'
Who do you love, who do you love
Who do you love, who do you love

"Why Do I"

"Why Do I"



We swing high, we swing low
Never worry about a dull moment
You're mine, I'm yours
We fight while we know that we shouldn't

Ten dollar, ten times
On sale to the highest bidder
Ten dollar, ten times
Is the price of love considered
You're right, I'm wrong
You always knew a good thing in the first place
One sundown, one moon down
One hole in a sky-blue ceiling

Ten dollar, ten times
Every time you hold the trigger
Ten dollar, ten times
Is the price of love
Why do I, hurt you so
Why can't I just let you go
Why do I, hurt you so
While I idolize you forever more

Ten dollar, ten times
On sale to the highest bidder
Ten dollar, ten times
Is the price of love considered

Your "yes" against my "no"
We never worry 'bout a dull moment
You're mine, and I'm yours
We fight while we know that we shouldn't

Ten dollar, ten times
Every time you hold the trigger
Ten dollar, ten times
It's the price of love

Why do I, hurt you so
Why can't I just let you go
Why do I, hurt you so
While I idolize you forever more

Ten dollar, ten times
Why do I, hurt your soul

"Why Me?"

"Why Me?"



I'm standing on the cliff top, watchin' storm clouds grow
It's disappointment time again, I've been up here before
The wind balloons my jacket, seabirds collide below
A pier stands on a hundred stilts, some stranded UFO
I've stopped the car, in a dead end street
Rear view mirror, nothing but empty seats
I could brace myself, smash through the concrete
Find what's behind that wall of insecurity

From gin and jags, to squalor and scab
Selena, what a drag
Once we were, back to back
Almost there, but white was black

Why me, designed to compete
Always, flirtin' with defeat
Why me, I knew it when we met
Hell, what else could you expect
Why me, hungry for affection
It ends, with chaos and rejection

Through the wall and over the cliff
I made the decision, you took quite a risk
Selena says, as she strokes my head
With luck like yours, you should be dead

Forget the past and melt my silver spoon
Selena, not a minute too soon
Broke the chains of negativity
At last I score a victory

Why me, no need to compete
Nowadays, I think at defeat
She's me, I felt it when me met
That feel, cancels all regret
Me, the center of attraction
The end, adds to your confusion
I'm standin' on the cliff top, waving, waving

Why me, no need to compete
Nowadays, I wink at defeat
She's me, I felt it when we met
That feel, cancels all regret
Still me, the center of attraction
The end, adds to your confusion
I'm standin', on the cliff top
Waitin' for the cops

"Will & Mercy"

"Will & Mercy"



Will's a broken down lover
Who's never been outside the city he lives in
He's got memories of better days
And he's floatin' in his dream
But tonight's the night that's gonna change his life
Gonna change the whole situation
Mercy just got off the train
Gets a cab at the station

Time and time ahead, coming in the clear
Lonely hearts, disappear
Cause Mercy's on her way and Will don't have to wait
Time and time for the day, anymore

Mercy's got enough of the now and then
Of her strait jacket existence
So she packs her bags and cuts her hair
And throws away the ribbons
Cause tonight's the night that's gonna change her life
Gonna change the whole situation
Will just turned the free sign off
Baby where can I take you

Time and time ahead, coming in the clear
Lonely hearts, disappear
Cause Mercy's on her way and Will don't have to wait
Time and time for the day

Who, who will stop the rain again
We will stop the rain and then....

Time and time ahead, coming in the clear
Lonely hearts, disappear
Cause Mercy's on her way and Will don't have to wait
Time and time for the day, anymore

"Yellow And Blue"

"Yellow And Blue"



When I wake up early in the morning
And sometimes I really do
Then you get up and you do some yawning
That's nothing new
But then, you know I wonder
If the morning couldn't open his eyes
No reflections from the sun in the window
Nothing to blow your mind

Morning light, oh morning sun
'cross my calendar
Morning light, oh morning sun
Every new day I will remember

I'm glad you're still there
Even though many don't care
Colours from you
Make you feel that all is new
Yellow and blue
Are reflections in water and dew
And more of that all in the morning
In the morning
Yellow and blue
Are reflections in water and dew

"Yes! We're On Fire"

"Yes! We're On Fire"



Here we are, ready to run fast
And far better than anyone before
We chase the sun in the morning
We jump for gold
There are no losers in this game
Only winners participate
And you know I'm not a liar when I say

Yes we're on fire, Yes we're on fire
Yes we're on fire, Yes we're on fire

Silver, bronze and maybe gold
The blazing heat, the chilling cold
In this arena we all strive

To beat the records head up high
To break the records head up high

Yes we're on fire, Yes we're on fire
Yes we're on fire, Yes we're on fire

From javelin to boxing ring
From weightlifting to skating rink
Young and proud and passionate
Planet earth top athletes
The competition always fierce
With beating hearts and eyes so clear

To beat the records head up high
To break the records head up high

The sweat the tears, the blood we bleed
We are the living legends carving history
The flag that fills our hearts with pride
