Way of the world

If you take the tears from crying eyes
will the hurt just disappear
put a weapon in the hand of a frightened man
will he show no fear
so we stand and we watch while the city lights go out one by one
Mother Nature site on the other side with a loaded gun

Why is there blue
why is there red sky,
now's the time to ask the reason,
should the blue sky,
meet the red sky
should the rules have te change at all
we all know whatever they say, time is on our side
This world has been here before just going round and round and round

We all agree as far as we can see
It's just the way of the world,
that's how it's meant to be
There's right and there's wrong
There's weak and there's strong
It's just the way of the world
and that's how it's meant to be

Take the motion from a spinning wheel and watch it stop
Take the danger out of a naked flame and what have you got
If you take the anger out of a broken heart, you feel no pain
Could you swear if you had that second chance you wouldn't do it again.

Why is there blue sky
why is there red sky,
now's the time to ask the reason,
should the blue sky,
meet the red sky
Should the rules have to change at all
we all know whatever they say, time is on our side
This world has been here before just going round and round and round

We all agree as far as we can see
It's just the way of the world,
that's how it's meant to be
There's right and there's wrong
There's weak and there's strong
It's just the way of the world
and that's how it's meant to be

Tonight, Tonight, Tonight

I'm coming down
Coming down like a monkey
But it's all right
It's like a load on your back
That you can't see
Oh but it's all right

Try to shake it loose, cut it free
Let it go
Just get it away from me

'Cos tonight, tonight, tonight
I'm gonna make it right
Tonight, tonight, tonight

I'm going down
Going down like a monkey
But it's all right
It's like a helter skelter
Going down and down
Round and round
But just get it away from me

Because tonight, tonight, tonight
We're gonna make it right
Tonight, tonight, tonight

I've got some money in my pocket
I don't remember where I got it
I gotta give it to you
So please answer the phone
'Cause I keep calling
But you're never home
What am I gonna do

Tonight, tonight, tonight
I'm gonna make it right
Tonight, tonight, tonight

You keep telling me I've got everything
You say I've got everything I want
You keep telling me you're gonna help me
You're gonna help me but you don't
But now I'm in too deep
It's got me so that I just can't sleep
Get me out of here
Please get me out of here
Just help me I'll do anything
Anything if you'll just help
Get me out of here

I'm coming down
Coming down like a monkey
But it's all right
Like a load on your back
That you can't see
But it's all right

Try to shake it loose, cut it free
Let it go
But just get it away from me

'Cause tonight, tonight, tonight
May be we'll make it right
Tonight, tonight, tonight

Please get me out of here
Someone get me out of here
Just help me I'll do anything
Anything if you'll just help
Get me out of here

Tonight I'm gonna make it right
Tonight, tonight, tonight

No son of mine

The key to my survival
was never in much doubt
the question was how I could keep sane
trying to find the way out

things were never easy for me
peace of mind was hard to find
and I needed a place where I could hide
somewhere I could call mine

I didn't think much about it
tel it started happening all the time
soon I was living with the fear everyday
of might happen that night

I couldn't stand to hear the
crying of my mother
and I remember when
I swore that, that would be the
last they'd see of me
and I never went home again

oh his words how they hurt me, I'll never forget it
and as the time, it went by, I lived to regret itthey said time is a healer
and now my wounds are not the same
I rang the bell with my heart in my mouth
I had to hear what he'd say

He sat me down to talk to me
he looked me straight in the eyes

he said:

You're no son, no son of mine
You're no son, no son of mine
You walked out, you left us behind
and you're no son, no son of mine

You're no son, no son of mine
but where should I go,
and what should I do
you're no son, no son of mine
but I came here for help, I came here for you

Well the years they passed slowly
I thought about him everyday
what would I do, if we passed on the street
would I keep running away

in and out of hiding places
soon I'd have to face the facts
we'd have to sit down and talk it over
and that would mean going back

they said time is a healer
and now my wounds are not the same
I rang the bell with my heart in my mouth
I had to hear what he'd say

He sat me down to talk to me
he looked me straight in the eyes

he said:

You're no son, no son of mine
You're no son, no son of mine
You walked out, you left us behind
and you're no son, no son of mine

Domino--In The Glow Of The Night

The grey of evening
Fills the room
No need to look outside
To see or feel the rain
I reach across to touch her
But I know that she's not there
Rain keeps running down the window pane
Time keeps running out for me

Can't you see what you are doing to me
Can't you see what you have done
As I try to pass another long and sleepless night
As a hundred crazy voices call my name
As I try to pass them by
I almost can believe that she is here
Here in the glow of the night

Do you know what you have done
Do you know what you've begun
Do you see we shall never be together again
All of my life

All the lonely people, empty rooms
And all the pointless violence, silent tombs
Could it be that we shall be together again

Sheets of double glazing
Help to keep outside the night
Only foreign city sirens can cut through
Nylon sheets and blankets
Help to minimize the cold
But they can't keep out the chilling sounds
Will the nightmare soon give way to dreaming
That she is here with me
Here in the glow of the night

Do you know what you have done
Do you know what you've begun
Do you see we shall never be together again
All of my life

All the lonely people, empty rooms
And all the pointless violence, silent tombs
Could it be that we shall be together again

Domino--The Last Domino

In silence and darkness
We held each other near that night
We prayed it would last forever

Blood on the windows
Millions of ordinary people are there
They gaze at the scenery
They act as if it is perfectly clear
Take a look at the mountains
Take a look at the beautiful river of blood

The liquid surrounds me
I fight to rise from this river of hell
I stare round about me
Children are swimming
And playing with their boats
Their features are changing
Their bodies dissolve and I am alone

Now see what you've gone and done
Now see what you've gone and done

Now you never did see
Such a terrible thing
That was showed last night on the TV
Maybe if were lucky
They will show it again
Such a terrible thing to see

There's nothing you can do
When you're next in line
You've got to go domino

Now I'm one with the living
And I'm feeling just fine
I know what I must do
Play the game of happiness
And never let on
That it only lives in a song

There's nothing you can do
When you're next in line
You've got to go domino

Do you know what you have done
Do you know what you've begun

In silence and darkness
Hold each other near tonight
For will it last forever

There's nothing you can do
When you're next in line
You've got to go domino

Fading Lights

Another time it might have been so different
Oh, if only we could do it all again
But now it's just another fading memory
Out of focus, though the out line still remains

Far away, away, fading distant lights
Leaving us all behind, lost in a changing world
And you know that these are the days of our lives, remember

Like the story that we wish was never ending
We know some time we must reach the final page
Still we carry on just pretending
That there'll always be one more day to go

Far away, away, fading distant lights
Leaving us all behind, lost in a changing world
And you know that these are the days of our lives, remember

Another chance hello, another goodbye
And so many things we'll never see again
Days of lives that seem so unimportant
They seem to matter and to count much later on

Far away, away, fading distant lights
Leaving us all behind, lost in a changing world
And you know that these are the days of our lives, rememb

Hold On My Heart

Hold on my heart
Just hold on to that feeling
We both know we've been here before
We both know what can happen

Hold on my heart
'Cause I'm looking over your shoulder
Ooh please don't rush in this time
Don't show her how you feel

Hold on my heart
Throw me a lifeline
I'll keep a place for you
Somewhere deep inside

So hold on my heart
Please tell her to be patient
'Cause there has never been a time
That I wanted something more

If I can recall this feeling
And I know there's a chance
Oh I will be there
Yes I will be there
Be there for you
Whenever you want me to
Whenever you call
Oh I will be there
Yes I will be there

Hold on my heart
Don't let her see you crying
No matter where I go
She'll always be with me
So hold on my heart
Just hold on to that feeling
We both know we've been here before
We both know what can happen

So hold on my heart
Just hold on my heart
Hold on my heart...

Home By The Sea

Creeping up the blind side, shinning up the wall
stealing through the dark of night
Climbing through a window, stepping to the floor
checking to the left and the right
Picking up the pieces, putting them away
something doesn't feel quite right

Help me someone, let me out of here
then out of the dark was suddenly heard
"Welcome to the Home by the Sea"

Coming out the woodwork, through the open door
pushing from abouve and below
Shadows with no substance, in the shape of men
round and down and sideways they go
Adrift without direction, eyes that hold despair
then as one they sigh and they moan

Help us someone, let us out of here
Living here so long undisturbed
dreaming of the time we were free
so many years ago
before the time when we first heard
"Welcome to the Home by the Sea"

Sit down...Sit down
As we relive our lives in what we tell you

Images of sorrow, pictures of delight
things that go to make up a life
Endless days of summer, longer nights of gloom
waiting for the morning light
Scenes of unimportance, photos in a frame
things that go to make up a life

Help us someone, let us out of here
Living here so long undisturbed
dreaming of the time we were free
so many years ago
before the time when we first heard
"Welcome to the Home by the Sea"

Sit down...Sit down
as we relive our lives in what we tell you
let us relive our lives in what we tell you

Sit down...Sit down
Cause you won't get away
no with us you will stay
for the rest of your days. So sit down
As we relive our lives in what we tell you
Let us relive our lives in what we tell you

I can't dance

hot sun beating down
burning my feet just walking around
hot sun making me sweat
gators getting close, hasn't got me yet
I can't dance, I can't talk.
the only thing about me is the way I walk
I can't dance, I can't sing
I m just standing here selling
everything.

blue jeans sitting on the beach,
her dog s talking to me, but she s
out of reach.
she's got a body under that shirt,
but all she wants to do is rub my face in the dirt.
'cos, I can't dance, I can't talk,
the only thing about me is the way that I walk.
no, I can't dance, I can't sing,
I'm just standing here selling.
and checking everything is in place,
you never know who's looking on.

young punk spilling beer on my shoes,
fat guy's talking to me trying to steal my blues.
thick smoke, see her smiling through;
I never thought so much could happen just shooting pool.
but I'can t dance, I can't talk
the only thing about me is the way I walk
I can't dance, I can't sing
I'm just standing everything is in place
you never know who's looking on
a perfect body with a perfect face

In too deep

All the time I was searching
Nowhere to run to
It started me thinking
Wondering what I could make of my life
And who'd be waiting
Asking all kinds of questions to myself
But never finding the answers
Crying at the top of my voice
But no-one listening

All this time
I still remember everything you said
There's so much you promised
How could I ever forget

Listen
You know I love you but I just can't take this
You know I love you but I'm playing for keeps
Although I need you I'm not gonna make this
You know I want to but I'm in too deep

So listen, listen to me
Oh you must believe me
I can feel your eyes go thru me
But I don't know why

Oh I know you're going
But I can't believe
It's the way that you're leaving
It's like we never knew each other at all
It may be my fault
I gave you too many reasons for being alone
When I didn't want to
I thought you'd always be there
I almost believed you

All this time
I still remember everything you said
There's so much you promised
How could I ever forget

Listen
You know I love you...

So listen, listen to me
I can feel your eyes go thru me

It seems I've spent too long
Only thinking about myself
Now I want to spend my life
Just caring bout somebody else

Listen
You know I love you...

Invicible touch

Well I've been waiting
Waiting here so long
But thinking nothing
Nothing could go wrong
But now I know
She has a built in ability
To take everything she sees
And now it seems I'm falling
Falling for her

She seems to have
An invisible touch
Yeah
She reaches in
Grabs right hold of your heart

She seems to have
An invisible touch
Yeah
It takes control and slowly tears you apart.

I don't really know her
I only know her name
But she crawls under your skin
You're never quite the same
And now I know
She's got something you just can't trust
It's something mysterious
And now it seems I'm falling
Falling for her

She seems to have
An invisible touch
Yeah
She reaches in
Grabs right hold of your heart

She seems to have
An invisible touch
Yeah
It takes control and
Slowly tears you apart

She don't like losing
To her it's still a game
Though she'll mess up your life
You'll want her just the same

Now I know
She has a built in ability
To take everything she sees
And now it seems I've fallen
Fallen for her

She seems to have
An invisible touch
Yeah
She reaches in
Grabs right hold of your heart

She seems to have
An invisible touch
Yeah
It takes control
And slowly tears you apart

Land of Confusion

I must've dreamed a thousand dreams
Been haunted by a million screams
But I can hear the marching feet
They're moving into the street

Now did you read the news today
They say the danger's gone away
But I can see the fire's still alight
They're burning into the night

Too many men, too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go round
Can't you see this is the land of confusion

This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in

Oh Superman where are you now
Everything's gone wrong somehow
The men of steel, men of power
Are losing control by the hour

This is the time, this is the place
So we look for the future
But there's not much love to go round
Tell me why this is the land of confusion

This is the world we live in...

I remember long ago
Oh when the sun was shining
And the stars were bright all through the night
And the sound of your laughter as I held you tight
So long ago

I won't be coming home tonight
My generation will put it right
We're not just making promises
That we know we'll never keep

Too many men, too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go round
Can't you see this is the land of confusion

This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth fighting for

This is the world we live in
And these are the names we're given
Stand up and let's start showing
Just where our lives are going to

Mama

I can't see you mama
But I can hardly wait
Oh to touch and to feel you mama
Oh I just can't keep away
In the heat and the steam of the city
Oh its got me running and I just can't brake
So say you'll help me mama
'Cause its getting so hard - oh

But I know you're always there
You listen, you teach me mama

Don't take it away

Ha ha, ha ha ha, ha, argh

It's hot, too hot for me mama
But I can hardly wait
My eyes they're burning mama
And I can feel my body shake
Don't stop, don't stop me mama
Oh make the pain, make it go away - hey

But its getting so hard - oh

Now I can't see you mama

Oh got me running and I just can't brake
So stay don't leave me mama
'Cause its getting so hard - oh

Don't go no no, don't go
No no no, don't go...

Dreaming while you sleep

In and out of darkness, in and out of sleep
trying to keep my hands upon the wheel.
Never saw the corner in the driving rain.
I never saw her step into the street

Dreaming while you sleep
dreaming while you sleep
memories to keep
dreaming while you sleep

I can never understand what went thru my mind
I didn't stop to see what I had done.
I had to keep on driving deep into the night
the miles between would somehow put it right.

Dreaming while you sleep
dreaming while you sleep
memories to keep
dreaming while you sleep

All my life you lie silently there
All my life in a world so unfair
All my life and only I'll know why
and it will live inside of me,
I will never be free all my life,
trapped in her memory all my life
Till the day that you open your eyes,
please open your eyes

Dreaming while you sleep
dreaming while you sleep

Heard it on yhe radio, saw it on TV,
but could I take my secret to the grave.
If I hade another chance, would I do the same. Would I still denie that it was me.

Dreaming while you sleep,
dreaming while you sleep
Dreaming while you sleep,
Are you dreaming while you sleep?

All my life I'll be haunted by
all my life just one moment in time
all my life until the day I die
and it will live inside of me
I will never be free all my life
trapped in her memory all my life
Till the day that you open your eyes

All of my life - you lie silently there
All my life - in a world so unfair
All my life - and only I know why
And it will live inside of me
I will never be free all my life
Trapped in her memory - all my life
Till the day that you open your eyes.
