I woke up this morning
Wishing you were here Another cup of coffee And then you appeared A crystal vision Shining through the rain Smiling through my window pane In the morning traffic I turn on the radio And the song that’s playing Is one that we used to know When we were dancing slowly Under the mirror ball You were singing to me I felt like we had it all It was our adventure I won’t let it slip away Gonna make it like it was before this day I will be your witness (That much I can do) That much I can do (I wanna tell the world) I just want to tell the world How much I’m missing you I will be your witness (Don’t you know it’s true) Don’t you know it’s true (I wanna testify) I just want to testify How much I’m loving you Did you ever notice Just what you mean to me You’re the piece of the puzzle That makes my world complete I need your freedom I need your company Let me tell you how it’s going to be I will be your witness (That much I can do) That much I can do (I wanna tell the world) I just want to tell the world How much I’m missing you I’ll be your alibi tonight I’ll make everything all right I will be your defense When life makes no sense Baby you just wait and see It’s a crazy crazy world Woke up this morning Wishing you were here Poured a cup of coffee And then you appeared Such a great adventure I won’t let it slip away You know I need you every night and every day I will be your witness (That much I can do) That much I can do (I wanna tell the world) I just want to tell the world How much I’m missing you I will be your witness (Don’t you know it’s true) Don’t you know it’s true (I wanna testify) I just want to testify How much I’m loving you I will be your witness (I will be your witness) What else can I do (What else can I do) I just want to tell the world How much I’m loving you |

The lines are drawn in the sand across the caress of time
The lines are drawn in the sand across the caress of time There's a face in the glass Looking through the mirror At the maze of my past It was never clearer On the distant horizon The sun approaches Better cover my eyes Better hide the roaches In the best of my time There was something better And the quest of my mind Was to try and get her Something simple and pure As the thoughts in my head Not the tears in the rain Over me she shed We were almost there Still I was unaware Here in the Brave New World's embrace I watch the parade begin Searching for one familiar face And I wonder where I fit in How will I know if there's a place For me in the Brave New World To be calm in the eye Of the human storm In house full of dreams I am safe and warm Looking back at a life Filled with warm embraces No regrets only memories Of smiling faces We were almost there Now change is in the air Until now I held the zone I ruled the world I called it home I never saw the down side See the now see the Zen There is no division Through the eyes of a child There is perfect vision And the best of our lives Resonate the hills And the sun's gonna shine And you know that I will... |

Written by Dennis DeYoung
Lead Vocals by Dennis DeYoung How can I sleep tonight? When I know that tomorrow I'll be miles away, And how can I leave if I know when I kiss you goodbye, Baby you'll cry Where do I find the words? To convince you that there's a secret part of me, That dies every time I must pack up and walk out the door, When I'm wanting you more So while there's still time, Know that I love you, Baby please hold me tight, Girl while there's still time If I could stop the dawn, Make the moon and the stars shine on forever more, And never again have to say how much I'm missing you, But what can I do? So while there's still time, Say that you love me, Baby please hold me tight, Girl while there's still time If I should go, if I should go, There's a chance I could lose, The love of my life, the love of my life, Baby please don't make me choose Believe me Trust me Let me inside And while there's still time, Forget about tomorrow, Baby please let's not fight, Not while there's still time While there's still time While there's still time While there's still time Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh... |

There must be something out there,
There must be something real Well this mystery's a nightmare And I don't know what to feel Well I heard you had a hell of a time there I guess it chilled you down to the bone If there's one thing I can tell you It'll never leave you less than alone In spite of everything you told me In spite of everything I've heard There's nothing here that I call holy Not a solitary word Could you tell me what it's like on the outside Were you really lost and out of control Were you reaching for your freedom When the gatekeeper called for the toll Oh-oh, what have they done to you Where, where have you gone Oh-oh, I wanna run to you In spite of what you're saying I still can't let you go Well they say you witnessed some kind of lefe there Was it something real or nothing at all Or is your imagination all that's there to catch you If you start to fall Oh-oh, what have they done to you Where, where have you gone Oh-oh I wanna run to you In spite of what you're saying I still can't let you go Oh-oh, what have they done to you Where, where have you gone Oh-oh I wanna run to you In spite of what you're saying I still can't let you go What have they done to you |

Hell nobody's perfect
One hundred percent No saint, no Pope, no King no Queen No President But our hunger for heroes Has made us blind We seek salvation From the cup of human kind But every time we hear the voice Of some new Abraham We wake too late to realize It was just another scam Fallen angel, fallen angel Well I guess you were no angel after all Fallen angel, fallen angel You always take us with you when you fall I said nobody's perfect From head to toe Not Einstein or Elvis or Lenin or Marx Or Marilyn Monroe Cause it's mostly illusion In flesh and bone An image, a look, a song or a book That we all claim for our own But even in the best of us There lies beneath the skin The tragic flaw in nature's law That's bound to do us in Fallen angel, fallen angel Well I guess you were no angel after all Fallen angel, fallen angel You always take us with you when you fall Pretty faces up on the silver screen Flawless bodies on covers of magazines They all look perfect to us So rich and cool and bored But hold the presses boys They've checked into Betty Ford Turns out nobody's perfect From "A" to "Z" It's best to follow your heart Then to follow me Cause I'm only a singer Playin' a song And I've just been making it up As I went along See I met a man who told me once "Sincerity's the key And once you learn to fake it Son you're gonna be home free" Fallen angel, fallen angel Well I guess you were no angel after all Fallen angel, fallen angel You always take us with you when you fall |

Everybody will be watching
Just to see what can you do They'll be waiting, anticipating For the genius to come through So raise the bar up A little higher They expect so much of you Feel the madness accelerating Cause you feel the same way too Great, Great, Great Expectations Everybody's masturbating Wondering what you're gonna do And all the doctors are contemplating Can the smart ass still pull through Mister big shot With all the answers One more time through the hoop for you Light a fire To the whole thing Feel the flame as you go through Great, Great, Great Expectations Did you think that your ambition Would ever end up in remission Did ya Now did ya Did you think your sacrifices Would turn your dreams into your vices Now did ya How could ya All the cynics & the ciphers Make you question what you do So turn your amp up a little louder To drown out that void in you While the mantra keeps repeating There are dreams you must pursue If you just try a little harder There ain't nothing you can't do Great, Great, Great Expectations |

Sittin' here on terra firma
It's the kind of place we were meant to be Out here kinda lost in space now Pondering life's mysteries All of minkind worship at the altar Of old mythology But the genie's out of the bottle Collision course with eternity Young children playing in the chat room With the freaks and the satellites Upload the nearset planet Burnin' out at the speed of light Better living for the masses With the new technology But some fool went and pushed the button He didn't get an apology Feeling good is a new sensation Panacea for the Prozac nation Heavy, heavy water Won't wash away the sins of the father Sacred cow sizzling in the fire As we all go up in flames With millions of true believers And their unfamiliar names On the road to good intentions Blown to hell by our own inventions Heavy, heavy water Won't wash away the sins of the father Unholy, holy water Leading us like lambs to the... Custom made for the self reliant Lemonade for the thirsty giant Heavy, heavy water Won't wash away the sins of the father Unholy, holy water Leading us like lambs to the (slaughter) |

It was 8:15 When I pulled into the 7 Eleven I bought a 12 ounce coffee And I threw down a 357 I guess I was thinking I would never be found Next thing I knew I was spread-eagle Down on the ground I just fell into a manic depression And I really want to spend it with you I got pretty paper shoes And I'm weaving you a basket for Christmas Three hots and a cot And a cellmate who keeps calling me missus But I like to think I'm the king of the couch And I like my shrink 'Cause he always brings me smoke in a pouch I just fell into a manic depression And I really want to spend it with you We don't have any inhibitions We're not consumed by ambition We've got no mission control They say Dr. Freud might call me an anal retentive But my PO says I'm delinquent and I got no incentive Rehab is a thing of the past I step into the cab and say "Hey buddy, step on the gas" Just fell into a manic depression And I really want to spend it with you Okay ladies, it's time for your medication |

There was a time
When we were children Blue skies would shine And all was forgiven And there were heroes to guide us And we had family beside us And there were dreams to believe in Each and every day And I was your friend Father and brother And you were my wife Mistress and mother And through the good times and bad times We shared the love of a lifetime Oh what a shame and a damn crime For it all to end So goodbye to Roseland How I wish I could stay To live in the memory Of your sweet sweet day But every road that we travel, has an end And so the time now has come to say Farewell old friend Well goodbye to Roseland How I want you to know Just how much I miss you So I got to let go But all the love that you gave me will remain And every tear that I've cried has not been shed in vain |

No fear
No pain Never any need to worry again More new cures No more war We're better off now than we were before And the sun will always shine You never shed a tear again In the brave new world You never shed a tear again In the brave new world Here in the brave new world's embrace I watch the parade begin How will I know if there's a place For me in the brave new world Heavy, heavy water Won't wash away the sins of the father Who's that walking out the door Who can't take it any more Who's walking that path will fall Forever (Heavy) You tell me who's number one (Heavy water) Who's not here who's having fun (Won't wash away the sins of the father) Who's that knocking on the door Who's not taking any more Who's been down that road before Without you |
