"Heaven's Rain"

"Heaven's Rain"


I look back on those days
At the permanent haze
And the dark that surrounded me
Then good fortune arrived
I saw life in your eyes
You talked about changing views
Freedom to choose, darkness to light

There lies the kingdom
Of beautiful stories
Pure as the heaven's rain
Shine on the heartache
The bittersweet glory
Shine over everyone

Down the road I would fall
The wrong side of the wall
Sound of madness
Moved in for the kill
Then good fortune arrived
I saw life in your eyes
You talked about taking me
To a place I should know
Just you and me

There's a hole in the sun
Where I wanted to run
There were clouds in the open sea
Then good fortune arrived
I saw life in your eyes
You talked about showing me
A place I should know
Just you and me

Shine over everyone...

"Here Am I"

"Here Am I"


I sit in my sunny chair
With my head held low
I know the reason I'm dreaming
It's really been fun
But where is there left to go
Save to give my life a new meaning

And if by chance
You'd come my way
I'll have to say
Here am I, give me love
Here am I, give me love

How was I to know
Your heart was unsatisfied
When you never troubled to tell me
No wish that you made to me
Ever was denied
I played it just the way
That it should be

But then you turned
And walked away
I have to say
Here am I, give me love
Here am I, give me love

Here am I, give me love

I imagine I must sit here
Till the winter comes
And just watch the days
Growing shorter
To gather in dust won't go
Till my thinking's done
And I walk from this troubled water

By then my need won't be so bad
And I'll gladly say
Here am I, give me love
Here am I, give me love...

"High Priestess"

"High Priestess"


You, who brought the sunshine to my eyes
You, who wondered through my sad disguise
And I have a love that can not die... for you

High Priestess of my heart
Tell me that we won't part

Then let's get together in the sky
To leave the lonely world to wonder why
For we have a love that cannot die... so true

High priestess of my heart
Tell me that we won't part

"Hold Your Head Up"

"Hold Your Head Up"


And if it's bad
Don't let it get you down - you can take it
And if it hurts
Don't let them see you cry - you can make it

Hold your head up woman
Hold your head up woman
Hold your head up woman
Hold your head up high

And if they stare
Just let them burn their eyes on you moving
And if they shout
Don't let it change a thing that you're doing

Hold your head up woman
Hold your head up woman
Hold your head up woman
Hold your head up high

"Holdin' On"

"Holdin' On"


Lost, lost, like a precious flame
The ashes burn on
The ghost of a love we had
Tries to hold on
Tries to hold on

No communication
All systems are down
No new conversation
Never a sound
Never a sound

What's the point in holdin' on
When the feelin' has gone
Holdin' on
What's the point in holdin' on
When the spirit has gone

Cold, cold as the empty night
Deep in your eyes
I know there's no truth, no light
Only your lies
Only your lies

What's the point in holdin' on
When the feelin' has gone
Holdin' on
What's the point in holdin' on
When the spirit has gone

The circle's broken, the damage is done
The crystal lies smashed on the floor

Your presence has left me now
Your spirit has gone
The ghost of a love we had
Tries to hold on
Tries to hold on

"Holy Roller"

"Holy Roller"


I was born an only boy
Away from palm of water
Never heard of right or wrong
I was given words to use
But I knew I was different
They wanted me to play along

How much fear can I keep
Locked away inside me
Will all these words
Disguise my pain
When all your scriptures fell
And leave us in the open
I will survive and try again

Here comes the holy roller
Here comes the book of life
Don't come knockin' round here
'Cause you ain't no friend of mine
Here comes the ghost of holy
He comes to twist your mind
Don't come knockin' round here
'Cause you ain't no friend
Ain't no friend of mine

What is the price that you've put
On your own salvation
Count the costs for savin' souls
Where is the sense in all this
Door-to-door damantion
When you're just left out in the cold

"Home Again To You"

"Home Again To You"


Don't throw it all away
Hear what I've gotta say
Because you're always on my mind
I've got an eye on you
And only you will do
And I don't wanna waste my time

So won't you hear me out
Because It's all about when
I come home again to you

You're such a little child
You're gonna drive me wild
As I just don't know what to say
I got an eye on you
And only you will do
And I don't wanna get in your play

Hesitate, because I cannot wait
Till I come home again to you

You make me feel so old
Just like I have been told
Because it's always up to you
Oh baby, hear me out
I've done all my time
I don't wanna be misused

So please don't hesitate
Because I cannot wait
Till I come home again to you

Home to you

"Hot Night In A Cold Town"

"Hot Night In A Cold Town"


Sonny's out strollin', amblin' slowly
Washed in amber street lights
Mexican wind blows in
Taking hold of Angelina's hair
And her halo
Motors runnin', mufflin' the sound
Of the streets
A big deal's goin' down in another

Hot night in a cold town
Got yourself a hot night
In a cold town

Johnny's got spare change
In his pocket
A ring and a watch to hock
For a sweet ride
A one way ticket
Hidden in his shoe
These last few hours
He says he'll spend them with you
He's leaving home without a trace
No forwarding address
He'll never know
How to face another

Well the losers and the groovers
And the corner boys
Are hangin' around
Running in and out of doorways
Up and down the stairways
Stray dogs headed for the pound

Hot night in a cold town
Got yourself a
Hot night in a cold town
It's just another hot night
In a cold town

"Hot Persuasion"

"Hot Persuasion"


You know you light my candle
You know you load my gun
You're way too hot to handle
There's nothing we ain't done

Give me your love
Give me that hot persuasion
I can't get enough
Give me that hot persuasion

I'm full of hot persuasion
You face me upside down
A love for all occasions
You won't catch me fooling around

I need to know you're near me
I need you by my side
You keep me tiger ready
You keep me up all night

"I Can See You"

"I Can See You"


She’s the candle that lights my room
Better look out ‘cos she’s coming here soon
Ooh, you’re in my mind forever
I hear every word you say
Ooh, you come to wherever
And turn my darkness into day

You taught me how to live a life that’s full
I never realized what it is to be cool
Ooh, you pushed me off the high board
And I took I took it like a man
Ooh, and now I hit the high score
Hear me Momma if you can

I can hear you, I can touch you,
I can see you in my head
I can touch you, I can hear you,
I can see you in my head

Hold tight to the driving wheel
You gave me strength and nerves of steel
Ooh, sometimes I do get lonely
I roll the dice and say a prayer
Ooh, I think about you only
I feel the power when you there

I can hear you, I can touch you,
I can see you in my head
I can touch you, I can hear you,
I can see you in my head

She’s the candle that lights my room
Better look out ‘cos she’s coming soon
Ooh, if we can stay together
There’d nothing in our way
Here me Momma when I say

I can hear you, I can touch you,
I can see you in my head
I can touch you, I can hear you,
I can see you in my head
