Looking out a dirty old window Down below the cars in the City go rushing by I sit here alone And I wonder why Friday night and everyone's moving I can fell the heat But it's shooting Heading down I search for the beat in this dirty town Down town the young ones are going Down town the young ones are growing Chorus : We're the kids in America (x 2) Everybody live for the music-go-round Bright lights the music gets faster Look boy, don't check on your watch Not another glance I'm not leaving now, honey not a chance Hot-shot, give me no problems Much later baby you'll be saying never mind You know life is cruel, life is never kind Kind hearts don't make a new story Kind hearts don't grab any glory Ch. Come closer, honey that's better Got to get a brand new experience Feeling right Oh don't try to stop baby Hold me tight Outside a new day is dawning Outside Sububia's sprawling everywhere I don't want to go baby New York to East California There's a new wave coming I warn you Ch. We're the kids We're the kids We're the kids in America |

Cascading down There's a sound vaporising into vision It's a sound in my head That I feel and it shuts me in a prison Say it won't last Say it will pass Always the sound in my brain Can you hear it Water on glass running down again Water on glass that sound Water on glass running round again Help me, the sound of running water's Coming down Dancing away Like the lights on a moving coloured river Sounds in my head seem to run And again I feel a shiver Say it won't last Pray it will pass Always that sound in my brain Can you hear it (Can you hear it) Water on glass running down again Water on glass that sound Water on glass running round again Help me, the sound of running water's Coming down Water on glass running down again Water on glass that sound Water on glass running round again Help me, the sound of running water's Coming down |

Fresh out of school the young girl lose the sound
She's gonna go where the young bands hang around And it's still to right with a voice inside She's screaming, dreaming And there's no disguise when you look in her eyes she's scheming I'm thinking about the boys She's thinking about the boys Thinking about the boys There in the dark he starts to touch her hair Others go round but right now you don't care Well you just don't fight when they're holding you tight That feeling, feeling Well it looks to good and he's making it so appealing I'm thinking about the boys Thinking about the boys Thinking about the boys Still feeling ground as she goes to make the kill Watching her move the world is standing still Cos its still too right with a voice inside You screaming, dreaming And there's no disguise when you look in their eyes she's scheming I'm thinking about the boys Thinking about the boys Thinking about the boys |

This is your town, this is my place This is where my whole world is lived in Nothing much, and just out of reach of all the city lights It's a high town, it's a low town It's get here, come on you grow town No-one does, but everyone thinks they're gonna make it soon This is one place I respected Now I feel it's really dejected No-one cares and the people just stare And a man on the box says "Hey you, don't walk away, vote for me You'll get more pay, keep working hard" But they work slow Here it comes now, Sunday morning Just another sleepy town yawning Down below everything looks just like another day But, in the warm glow of the sunrise There's a child who's searching with young eyes Looking 'round and feeling inside he's gonna fly away There was one time I was leaving But the folks around me kept grieving Friends said go, but my dad said no And my mum kept saying "Don't go, don't go away Don't leave us, you've got to stay Just raise them kids, oh mother no" No prospects, just projects Don't try to tell me we're living There's no real need to try Can't you see this town gonna die Hail the new age, it's a rat cage Join the place for breeding dumb spieces All stacked up and doing whatever someone tells you to Burn the place down, make it dead ground Show the people just what they're missing Wake up, wake up, can't you believe in what I'm telling you There's a house where I was born in Now it's changed without any warning Cranes just crash and bricks just smash While a billboard's saying "Let's go, let's get away Come fly me, you've weeks to pay When sunshine calls, but I won't go This is our town |

Don't bring your gun 'round here Don't need you mouthing off your fear It touches all you can build a wall We all have tasted tears Everything we know Everything we know Everything we know Everywhere we go We walked along the beach Once lovers now we're out of reach Windy skies, they kissed me goodbye It takes experience to teach Everything we know Everything we know Everything we know Everywhere we go Nobody laughed today I went to watch the children play Their smiles and mine were frozen in time I'll just remember them that way Everything we know Everything we know Everything we know Everywhere we go |

Just two lovers in a seedy cafe Someone's leaving, the waiter says "Hey, won't you wait" Running nowhere, she hides in her room What he told her had to get out and soon It's just a bad affair you've had No need to cry, don't take it bad You'll soon be glad when you're far apart You'll never be so wrong, not for a long time You'll never be so wrong, not for a long time 'Cause I'm never gonna find that feeling again I'm never gonna find that feeling again Now she's breaking but what can she do Somewhere out there a car disappears out of view Fumbles somewhere for stale cigarettes Looks for numbers, the ones she could dial but forgets No point in you just looking down No way that you can turn it around You've go to realise you''re free You'll never be so wrong, not for a long time You'll never be so wrong, not for a long time 'Cause I'm never gonna find that feeling again I'm never gonna find that feeling again No point in you just looking down No way that you can turn it around You've go to realise you're free You'll never be so wrong, not for a long time You'll never be so wrong, not for a long time 'Cause I'm never gonna find that feeling again I'm never gonna find that feeling again |

Well he was Thailand based She was an airforce wife He used to fly weekends It was the easy life But then it turned around And he began to change She didn't wonder then She didn't think it strange But then he got a call He had to leave that night He couldn't say too much But it would be alright He didn't need to pack They'd meet the next night He had a job to do Flying to Cambodia And as the nights passed by She tried to trace the past The way he used to look The way he used to laugh I guess she'll never know What got inside his soul She couldn't make it out Just couldn't take it all He had the saddest eyes The girl had ever seen He used to cry some nights As though he lived a dream Ans as she held him close He used to search her face As though she knew the truth Lost inside Cambodia But then a call came through They said he'd soon be home She had to pack a case And they would make a rendez-vous But now a year has passed And not a single word And all the love she knew Has disappeared out in the haze Cambodia - Don't cry now - No tears now And now the years have passed With not a single word But there is only one thing left I know for sure She won't see his face again |

View from a bridge, can't take anymore View from a bridge, can't take anymore I guess it all began about a year ago Like a cheap love magazine You know the kind you read about And have to laugh At the pages in between Now I can't believe that fool inside is me 'Cos I just can't face the world I've grown to see View from a bridge, can't take anymore View from a bridge, can't take anymore I saw you kissing her I saw you making her In the soft sheets in between But when you turned around I saw your eyes were fire And you crashed out all my dreams And like a fool I just stood there And let it go I should have fought right back And let my feelings show View from a bridge, can't take anymore View from a bridge, can't take anymore You sure as hell knew how To make a fool out of me Well you cut me down For the things you want And now it's killing me I'll lay it on the line now You're running out of time now But then a voice said jump And I just let go And I'm floating out in space But then I feel your arms And I turn around To a ghost without a face And I just don't know What's fact or fantasy 'Cos when I look below the bridge I see it's me |

Something's coming down the street Something static under your feet Never looking left or right 'coz she'll just blow you out of sight She's never waiting on your smile Devastating, what's in her style ? Situation no-go zone But she'll cut loose when she's alone Chorus: She's a love Blonde She's a love Blonde She's a love Blonde She's got that sensuality for love When the boys say "how you been What you doin', Can we get in ?" Eyes'll flash and lips will smile And she'll just tease them for a while 'coz now you see her, now you don't You could be there, only you won't If you've got that "Savoir Faire" Well that girl knows and she's aware Chorus Oooh, well if she fills your dreams tonight Oooh, just lay back and hold on tight Chorus |

Shadows run in the heat of the desert Hands beat at the door Someone stands and calls For the name of Salome As the veils were pushed away He gazed upon a face He'd never seen Was she a dream ? He heard the sound from a distance voice You'd better watch out! You'd better watch out! He heard the sound from a thousand years Calling out Calling out In the house of Salome You have to surrender "Run with her" said the young handmaiden "She will be your queen All your life you'll live In the dream of Salome Take her mouth and with your hands Just kiss her painted lips Don't you make a move 'till Salome calls you" As the music danced around the desert night He smelt her perfumed skin As they made love He heard the sound of a distant voice You'd better watch out! You'd better watch out! He heard the sound of a thousand years Calling out Calling out In the house of Salome You have to surrender |

We were dancing Dancing in the dark Sweet romancing Something's gonna start He stepped into the night With his heart open wide I was standing there With nowhere left to hide He looked to me like a shadow Moving in the night Then he took a hold of my hand In the soft moonlight And we were dancing Dancing in the dark Sweet romancing Something's gonna start I could hear his heartbeat Pounding in the night I could feel his body Starting to be kind With his soft red lips Made up my mind His soothing kiss Was all I desired And we were dancing Dancing in the dark Sweet romancing Something's gonna start We kissed and touched But it wasn't enough To stop this wheel of fire One step at a time And I knew he was mine We were lost in the heat of desire And we were dancing Dancing in the dark Sweet romancing Something's gonna start No way No way at all To stop us moving closer Each look in his eyes Made my heart beat in time Over and over and over and over And we were dancing Dancing in the dark Sweet romancing Something's gonna start And we were dancing Dancing in the dark Sweet romancing Something's gonna start |

Child come away It's the girl with the deputy walking by Child go and play No I won't give you reasons so don't ask why I read the story about a week ago They found her on the beach that night They thought the light had gone out of her eyes and no-one thinks she'll ever be right She was so full of her life Happy with the people she knew But then no-one can tell Child come away It's the girl with the deputy walking by Child go and play No I won't give you reasons so don't ask why Guess all they found were some marks in the sand A message saying 'She is mine' Nobody touched her as she got in the car Well nobody dares to anytime She was so full of her life The girl that everybody once knew But now no-one can tell Child come away It's the girl with the deputy walking by Child go and play No I won't give you reasons so don't ask why And when they read a story out to the judge I heard they had to turn away It's all over town I saw her face in the back of a car As they were speeding out of town She's got a mark on the side of her face that no-one's ever seen around And what she is or what she's become I guess the town will never know Child come away It's the girl with the deputy walking by Child go and play No I won't give you reasons so don't ask why |

Lost in the dark the lovers embrace As the last song plays, everyone makes for home Now it's just me and you alone And I won't really care if we can't meet again You just live your life I'm just a night to pass You're just a dream that couldn't last Take me tonight Take me tonight Take me tonight I want you, I want you - want me too ? No way of knowing just where my life's going Who cares if it's wrong or it's right When all I believe in is just how I'm feeling tonight Oh, take me tonight Take me tonight Take me tonight I want you, I want you to fade |

I'm touching your face and I Can't get very far You travel a million miles Always in the stars And crossing the clouds A fading moon Whispered ";It's goodbye"; But as it starts to die Stay awhile Show your love Child amoung the stars Just stay awhile Lay with me Tell me who you are I've never believed in much What can I be worth ? I'm always a shooting star Falling down to earth I prayed in my heart You'd never know Feelings wouldn't show But now before you go Stay awhile Show your love Child amoung the stars Just stay awhile Lay with me Tell me who you are And crossing the clouds A fading moon Whispers ";It's goodbye"; But as it starts to die Stay awhile Show your love Child amoung the stars Just stay awhile Lay with me Show me who you are Just stay awhile |
