"Dreamin'"

"Dreamin'"


I heard you cry tonight while you were sleeping tight
What were you dreamin'?
Was it another guy and did he make you cry
While you were dreamin'?
I don't find it easy to say
But I think it's right that you have to know

Why won't you understand you're being underhand
About your dreamin'?
I love you more and more, of that you can be sure,
Even your dreamin'.
I don't mind if you just say
You dream of us both but I have to know
You've got to understand you're being underhand about your dreamin'

Dreams, dreams, dreams, some are never long enough
Dreams, dreams, dreams, some are never good enough
I wonder do, do, do you ever get to sleep at night?
Who, who, who is it gonna be tonight?

You've been a naughty girl, you've got me in a whirl
I do believe it
You know you can be sure I want you more and more
Can you believe it?
I don't find it easy to say
But I think it's right that you have to know
You've been a naughty girl, you've got me in a whirl
I do believe it
You are a naughty girl, you've got me in a whirl
Can you believe it?
You've been a naughty girl, you've got me in a whirl
About your dreamin'
About your dreamin'
About your dreamin' ....

"Drifting Away"

"Drifting Away"


You can't see what you mean to me
I just can't get you out of my head
You move me more than I've ever been
Like a wild supersonic jet
But I can't see your love drifting away
And I don't want your love d-d-d-drifting away

I got told by a friend of mine
That you don't want me anymore
Now my friend's got a broken nose
Sure, and I got a broken jaw
So don't push me around, I'm coming your way
And I don't want your love d-d-d-drifting away

Don't you know what I'm living for?
Don't you know what I'm trying to say?
Don't try to shove me outta that door
'Cos you're mine and it's staying that way
I'm giving you my love, don't throw it away
But I can see your love d-d-d-drifting away
Oh, drifting away, you got me drifting away
Oh, drifting away

"Dust To Gold"

"Dust To Gold"


We know you're watching over us
the job you took for better or worse
dying in the scene from the burning cold
you turned this desert from dust to gold

Someone was born to be a beauty king
all ripping muscles when his sun-kissed skin
and getting paid for the shape I'm in
God's gift to women and I knew it then

I love to sting them like a butterfly
I used to kill them for the natural high
a real hoot, such a crazy guy
another shooter hold me out to dry

Suddenly the blind man can see
suddenly the force is with me
oh Lord, to have, to hold
like dust to gold

You wouldn't ever wanna treat with me
a belt fasten and a downhill ski
no-one would touch me with a ten foot pin
'cos there was no telling where I'd been

A multi-national waste of space
by five o' clock I will be off of my face
without a single litlte saving grace
and yet you call me for the human race

Suddenly the blind man can see
suddenly the force is with me
oh Lord, to have, to hold
like dust to gold

We know you're watching over us
the job you took for better or worse
dying in the scene from the burning cold
you turned this desert from dust to gold

Suddenly the blind man can see
suddenly the force is with me
oh Lord, to have, to hold
like dust to gold
with me oh Lord, to have, to hold
like dust to gold
like dust to gold
like dust to gold
like dust to gold
like dust to gold

"Ease Your Mind"

"Ease Your Mind"


I'm gonna ease your mind, I'm gonna write a line
And write a letter to you
I'm gonna let you know that I'll be coming home
And make it better with you

I sang a sad lullaby
I left you all alone to cry
Well I need you, oh my
Just to sing a lullaby
It won't be very long before I right my wrongs
And make it better with you.

It's such a crying shame I had to break away
To find the same old road
But now I'm getting wise, and I've realised
That that's the way that it goes

So put a smile upon your face
Let me know I've found my place
We've got no time to waste
'Cos all the time for heaven's late.
Now don't you be afraid, it's gonna be the same
I'll make it better with you

I'm gonna ease your mind, I'm gonna write a line
And write a letter to you
I'm gonna sign my name and send it straight away
And I'll be following through

I sang a sad lullaby
I left you all alone to cry
Well I need you, oh my
Just to sing a lullaby
It won't be very long before I right my wrongs
And make it better with you.

"Electric Arena"

"Electric Arena"


I have been there
I've been seen there
And I keep going on
Telling anyone
Who'll keep hanging on
That I don't mind at all

Electric Arena
Wired for sound
End of the alleyway
Back end of any town
Electric Arena
I loved you so
Taught me the kind of things
My mama should never know

Ooh my memory
Always takes me
Back to way back when
Things were happening
Always happening
All because of you

Electric Arena
Wired for sound
End of the alleyways
Back end of any town
Electric Arena
I loved you so
Taught me the kind of things
My mama should never know

When I'm feeling blue
I sometimes think of you
Then I'm feeling so much better

I'm wondering
Was it better then
Or is it all the same
Was it happening
And still happening
All because of you

Electric Arena
Wired for sound
End of the alleyways
Back end of any town
Electric Arena
I loved you so
Taught me the kind of things
My mama should never know

"Elizabeth Dreams"

"Elizabeth Dreams"


Elizabeth dreams of the day when the way
That I looked at her made her feel she was real
Elizabeth dreams of the time she was mine
When she didn't need any more, she was sure
She was sure

Out of sight, by candlelight
And sea green, and see green horses
I said she's out of sight by candlelight ??
And fairy, fairy stories
Elizabeth is not what she seems
Elizabeth dreams, Elizabeth dreams

Elizabeth dreams, holding fast through the past
When a morning was something new, flowers grew
Elizabeth dreams but it's late and she's waited too long
And tomorrow goes, now she knows
Now she knows

Out of sight by candlelight
And sea green, and sea green horses
I said she's out of sight, by candlelight
And fairy, fairy stories
Elizabeth is not what she seems
Elizabeth dreams, Elizabeth dreams
Elizabeth dreams

Elizabeth dreams, Elizabeth dreams
Elizabeth dreams

"End Of The Line"

"End Of The Line"


Call me if you need me, woman
Don't feel you're all alone
You've been away for much too long
It's time that you came home

Out on the town, you've been fooling around
I've been talking to myself
I fantasise about the look in your eyes
It's magic in itself

But my heart's stopped healing
And I can't help feeling it's the end of the line
Staying away, don't let them say
That it's the end of the line
Please don't hurt me
Don't desert me, it's the end of the line
Think it over, come on over
It's the end of the line

When you say that you want me woman
Is it just a lie?
Saying things that you don't believe
Can only mean goodbye

Dreaming of all the times we had
It seems all over now
Can't you see that I want you back
But I just can't see how

But my heart's stopped healing
And I can't help feeling it's the end of the line
Staying away, don't let them say
That it's the end of the line
Please don't hurt me
Don't desert me, it's the end of the line
Think it over, come on over
It's the end of the line

But my heart's stopped healing
And I can't help feeling it's the end of the line
Staying away, but don't let them say
That it's the end of the line
Please don't hurt me
Don't desert me, it's the end of the line
Think it over, come on over
It's the end of the line

"Enough Is Enough"

"Enough Is Enough"


I don't care what you say to me
I'm gonna try and kick you outta my door
Ain't no use entertaining me
Or paint your pretty little face for me
You don't like rock, you don't like roll
You don't like rock and roll no more
I've had enough, I can't anymore
Enough is enough, I can't stand no more
Enough is enough

I don't care what you say to me
I never get the message through when I call
What you do is a shame to see
Making plans of your own for me
You don't know where, you don't know when
You don't know where, or where or when
Oh I don't care what you say to me
I'm gonna kick you outta my door
Enough is enough, and I have had it
I've had enough, I can't anymore
Enough is enough, I can't stand no more
Enough is enough, I can't anymore
Enough is enough

Oh I don't care what you say to me
You're gonna be back banging round at my door
What you say is all the same to me
Making plans of your own for me
You don't know where, you don't know when
You don't know where, or where or when
I've had enough, I can't anymore
Enough is enough, I can't stand no more
Enough is enough, I can't anymore
Enough is enough, I can't stand no more
Enough is enough, I can't anymore
Enough is enough

"Everything"

"Everything"


My eyes can see, my hands can feel
My ears can hear, my eyes can see
They can see everything, everything

A bird that flies, a bird that dies
And who knows why? But with my eyes
I can see everything, everything

And now the dawn is breaking
I see the dawn is breaking
And life seems very good to me
I see your face is smiling
Your bed looks warm, inviting
I feel your hand walk over me

I climb in bed beside you
The past is not behind you
You feel a little pain inside
And now our heads are whirring
It's done, there's no returning
You feel the little pain - it dies

My eyes can see, my hands can feel
My ears can hear, my eyes can see
They can see everything, everything

A bird that flies, a bird that dies
And who knows why? But with my eyes
I can see everything, everything
And who knows what it all means?

"Everytime I Think Of You"

"Everytime I Think Of You"


I wrote a letter but I threw it away
I can't forget you, that's what I want to say
Anytime or place, just to see your face
Everytime I think of you
You know it makes me sad
That you feel this way 'cos I want you so bad
And it don't seem right that you won't be here tonight
Everytime I think of you

Everytime I think of you I wanna shout about it
But waiting's so hard when you live without love
Oh-oh-oh-oh, everytime I think of you

There's nothing left at all
Only a photograph a-hanging on my wall
It was my mistake, but it's my heart that aches
Everytime I think of you

Everytime I think of you I wanna shout about it
But waiting's so hard when you live without love
Oh-oh-oh-oh, everytime I ...

I wrote a letter, down to let you know
That I still want you and I just can't let go
And it still ain't right that you won't be here tonight
Everytime I think of you

Everytime I think of you I wanna shout about it
But waiting's so hard when you live without love
Oh-oh-oh-oh, everytime I think of you
Everytime I think of you
Everytime I think of you
Everytime I think of you
