"Puppet"

"Puppet"

We've been friends for such a long time,
My head has a mind of its own.
I don't wanna wait in no line
All i wanna do is go home.
Something's goin' on inside me,
I won't let it tear me apart.

You got to breakdown to breakthrough,
Growing up took someone like you.
Forget about the things in your head,
It's time to put the puppet to bed.

Don't tell me rome was built in a day, (no way)
You got to leave before you arrive.
If you're willing to give it away, (okay)
It's the only way to survive.
Never up is never in,
You got to lose before you can win.

You got to breakdown to breakthrough,
Growing up took someone like you.
Forget about the things in your head,
It's time to put the puppet to bed, yeah-ah!

Do yourself a favour,
You got to love your neighbour.
Even when the chips are down.

Cut the strings and let me go,
Now this is a one man show.

You got to breakdown to breakthrough,
Growing up took someone like you.
Forget about the things in your head,
It's time to put the puppet to bed.

You got to breakdown to breakthrough,
Growing up took someone like you.
Forget about the things in your head,
It's time to put the puppet to bed.

Alright! Alright! Alright!

"Pure Gold"

"Pure Gold"

Tell me, is she ev'rything i see
Or is she really not the one for me?
We know, and though some may disagree,
But do they know the way we want to be?

And do i still believe in stories i've been told?
Are all the things she brings me worth their weight in gold?
Oh yeah, (oh yeah) pure gold,
Oh yeah, (oh yeah) pure gold.

Building something, one thing made to last,
And holding something special from the past.

And do i still believe in stories we've been told?
Are all the things she brings me worth her weight in gold?
Oh yeah, (oh yeah) pure gold, (gotta believe me)
Oh yeah, (oh yeah) pure gold.

And do i still believe in stories i've been told?
Are all the things she brings me worth their weight in gold?
Oh yeah, (oh yeah) pure gold,
Oh yeah, (oh yeah) pure gold, (come on, over here, babe)
Oh yeah, pure gold,
Pure gold, (pure gold) pure gold,
Ev'rything she brings me is
(ev'rything she brings me is) pure gold,
(ev'rything she brings me is pure gold)
Pure gold, i said, pure gold.

"R U Ready?"

"R U Ready?"

Radio static

Are you ready to cross over, are you ready to let go?
To face the final curtain
In the land of I Don't Know
Jesus was a wise man
And everyone's a Saint
Are you ready to cross over, are you ready?

You can read the good and bad book
And bring the bad book home
But is it fact or fiction
There's just one way to know
Buddha was dancing, underneath the fig oak tree
He was ready to cross over, he was ready

So why hold on, hold on
It's good that you believe, but it's better if you don't
So hold on, hold on
Someone's there to catch you, when you're ready to let go...

I was sitting by the Ganji
Looking for another way
But all roads lead to Heaven
No matter what, they say

Preacher was a good man
Why was he so blue?
He was ready to cross over, he was ready

So why hold on, hold on
It's good that you believe, but it's better if you know
So hold on, hold on
Someone's there to catch you, when you're ready to let go

Play me to Heaven..

Are you ready to cross over, are you ready to let go?
To face the final curtain
In the land of I Don't Know
Every one can get there
Cuz we don't have a soul
Are you ready to cross over, are you ready??
So why hold on, hold on
It's good that you believe, but it's better if you know
So hold on, hold on
Someone's there to catch you when you're ready to let go.
Someone's there to catch you when you're ready to let go.
Someone's there to catch you when you're ready....
To let go.

That's the real thing there, isn't it?

"Red And Black Blues"

"Red And Black Blues"

Ended a worker, according to plan,
'Cause you're just a woman and i'm just a man.
Whatever the future might happen to bring,
It'll be the right thing.

It's all been happening for a long, long time,
There's a valley behind ev'ry mountain you climb.
So turn up the music and open the door
Nothing left to wait for.

Shine, shine your sweet light on me,
You said you were a rider but you feel like a woman to me.

Open the windows and unlock the locks
Ride all you can 'cause they may stop all your clocks.
Let all your hair down and open the wine
Things will be really fine.

Shine, shine your sweet light on me,
You said you were a woman but you feel like a rider to me.

Open the windows and unlock the locks
Ride all you can 'cause they may stop all your clocks.
Let all your hair down and open the wine
Things will be really fine.

"Runaways"

"Runaways"

Outside there's a runaway,
The lights go down, the world goes rushing in.
Neon light takes the light of day,
Stars like dust start falling.

Inside there's a loneliness,
The demon tries to charm you with his smile.
No time to dream or rest,
In the caves of steel, faces are changing.

They're the runaways,
They're the runaways,
Children of the damned.
They're the runaways,
Running for their life, faster than they can.
They're the runaways.

On the street the traffic dies,
The break of day, it always comes too soon.
Running out of reasons why
All your life you blamed it on the moon.

Look out for the danger signs,
You're stealing time but you know you'll never win.
Another border line,
In the caves of steel, faces are changing.

They're the runaways,
Children of the night.
They're the runaways,
Running for your life, faster than you can.
They're the runaways, run, run, runaways.

Nightmares chase the dreams away,
The cold night reflects the way you feel.
It's just another town,
It's just one more night to kill.

All the streets are empty now,
Like the wolf, you walk this night alone.
And in some other world,
In the caves of steel, faces are changing.

They're the runaways, (they're the runaways)
(run, run, run)
They're the runaways, (they're they runaways)
Children of the night.
They're the runaways, (run, run, run, run away)
Running for your life, faster than you can.
They're the runaways. (run, run, run, run away)
Children of the damned.
They're the runaways, (they're the runaways)
Running for your life, (faster than they can)
They're the runaways. (run, run, runaways)
They're the runaways, (they're the runaways)
(children of the night)
They're the runaways. (they're the runaways)
(running for their life, faster than they can)
(they're the runaways)
(run, run, run, run away)
Run.

"Samba"

"Samba"

One step forward and two steps back
The crowd will roar and bones will crack
And you'll be Samba to me
And by the calm of the sea
You gave your promise to me

We go hand in hand
Backing up the band
Put things on the sand
Understand I love you

[Chorus:]
It's a rock 'n tumble, never give up
You've got the stuff
We've got enough
We are in love

Take two steps forward and two steps back
Two steps back

[Chorus]

It's a rock 'n tumble, never give up
Never give up, never give up

[Chorus 2x]

"Satisfied"

"Satisfied"

Give me all the time you have
Won't be satisfied
I'm happy when you hold my hand
Still not satisfied

And when you tell me it's time to go
I'll ask for a minute more
And if you never leave my side
I won't be satisfied

If I only had one day with you
Won't be satisfied
Even with a year or two
Still not satisfied

I'm not asking for too much
Not a smile or a touch
And if you ever leave my side
I won't be satisfied
I'm not satisfied

I've spent my lifetime looking for someone like you
And when you're laying next to me you made a dream come true

I've spent my lifetime looking for someone like you
And when you're laying next to me you made a dream come true

Here in the morning light
Yes I'm satisfied
If I'm ever out of your sight
I am satisfied

I only want to hear your smile
I want forever not just a while
And if you never leave my side
I'll be satisfied

Yes satisfied
Satisfied
I'll be satisfied

"Sentimental Journey"

"Sentimental Journey"

Gonna take a sentimental journey,
Gonna set my heart at ease.
Gonna make a sentimental journey,
To renew old memories.

I've got my bag and got my reservation,
Spent each dime i could afford.
Like a child in wild anticipation,
Long to hear that "all aboard!"

Seven, (seven)
That's the time we leave,
At seven. (seven)
I'll be waiting out for heaven, (heaven)
Counting ev'ry mile of railroad track
That takes me back.

Never thought my heart could be so yearning,
Why did i decide to roam?
Got to take this sentimental journey,
Sentimental journey home.

I said at seven,
That's the time we leave,
At seven.
I'll be waiting out for heaven,
Counting ev'ry mile of railroad track
That takes me back.

I never thought my heart could be so yearning,
Why did i decide to roam?
Got to take this sentimental journey,
Sentimental journey home.
Sentimental journey home, let's go now,.
Sentimental journey home,
Sentimental journey home,
Sentimental journey home,
Sentimental journey home.

Maybe i'd better go by plane!
