(....forever)
Sometimes you're better off dead There's gun in your hand and it's pointing at your head You think you're mad, too unstable Kicking in chairs and knocking down tables In a restaurant in a West End town Call the police, there's a madman around Running down underground to a dive bar In a West End town In a West End town, a dead end world The East End boys and West End girls In a West End town, a dead end world The East End boys and West End girls West End girls Too many shadows, whispering voices Faces on posters, too many choices If, when, why, what? How much have you got? Have you got it, do you get it, if so, how often? And which do you choose, a hard or soft option? (How much do you need?) In a West End town, a dead end world The East End boys and West End girls In a West End town, a dead end world The East End boys and West End girls West End girls West End girls (How much do you need?) In a West End town, a dead end world The East End boys and West End girls Oooh West End town, a dead end world East End boys, West End Girls West End girls You've got a heart of glass or a heart of stone Just you wait 'till I get you home We've got no future, we've got no past Here today, built to last In every city, in every nation From Lake Geneva to the Finland station (How far have you been?) In a West End town, a dead end world The East End boys and West End girls A West End town, a dead end world East End Boys, West End girls West End girls West End girls West End girls (How far have you been?) Girls East End boys And West End girls And West End girls And West End girls East End boys The West End girls The West End boys And West End girls The West End girls The West End boys The West End girls |

You can live your life lonely
Heavy as stone Live your life learning And working alone Say this is all you want But I don't believe that it's true 'Cause when you least expect it Waiting round the corner for you Love comes quickly, whatever you do You can't stop falling (Ooh ooh) Love comes quickly, whatever you do You can't stop falling (Ooh ooh) You can live a life of luxury If that's what you want Taste forbidden pleasures Whatever you want You can fly away to the end of the world But where does it get you to? 'Cause just when you least expect it Just what you least expect Love comes quickly, whatever you do You can't stop falling (Ooh ooh) Love comes quickly, whatever you do You can't stop falling (Ooh ooh) I know it sounds ridiculous, but speaking from experience It may seem romantic, and that's no defense Love will always get to you Sooner or later, sooner or later, this happens to everyone To everyone You can fly away to the end of the world But where does it get you? Love comes quickly, whatever you do You can't stop falling (Ooh ooh) Love comes quickly, whatever you do You can't stop falling (Ooh ooh) Love comes quickly, whatever you do You can't stop falling (Ooh ooh) (Oooh) Love comes quickly, whatever you do You can't stop falling (Ooh ooh) Love comes quickly, whatever you do You can't stop falling (Ooh ooh) |

Lost in the high street, where the dogs run
Roaming suburban boys Mother's got a hairdo to be done She says they're too old for toys Stood by the bus stop with a felt pen In this suburban hell And in the distance a police car To break the suburban spell Let's take a ride, and run with the dogs tonight In Suburbia You can't hide, run with the dogs tonight In Suburbia Break the window by the town hall Listen, the siren screams There in the distance, like a roll call Of all the suburban dreams Let's take a ride, and run with the dogs tonight In Suburbia You can't hide, run with the dogs tonight In Suburbia I only wanted something else to do but hang around I only wanted something else to do but hang around I only wanted something else to do but hang around I only wanted something else to do but hang around It's on the front page of the papers This is their hour of need Where's a policeman when you need one To blame the colour TV? Let's take a ride, and run with the dogs tonight In Suburbia You can't hide, run with the dogs tonight In Suburbia Take a ride, and run with the dogs tonight In Suburbia You can't hide, run with the dogs tonight In Suburbia Run with the dogs tonight In Suburbia You can't hide In Suburbia In Suburbia In Suburbia In Suburbia In Suburbia |

Every time I see you
something happens to me Like a chain reaction between you and me My heart starts missing a beat Every time Oh oh oh, every time If I didn't love you, I would look around for someone else But every time I see you, you have the same effect My heart starts missing a beat Every time Oh oh oh, every time I hear your heart beat next to me I'm in love with you I mean what I say I'm in love with you, and you don't know What it means to be with you (Beats) (H-H-Heartbeats) (Beats) (H-H-Heartbeats) Every time I see you, no matter what we do There's a strange reaction, can you feel it too?

I don't know why, I don't know how I thought I loved you, but I'm not sure now I've seen you look at strangers too many times A love-you-once is of a, a different kind Remember when we felt the sun A love like paradise, how hot it burned A threat of distant thunder, the sky was red And when you walked, you always - turned every head (All day, all day) Watch them all fall down (All day, all day) Domino dancing (All day, all day) Watch them all fall down (All day, all day, domino dancing) I thought that when we fought I was to blame But now I know you play a different game I've watched you dance with danger, still wanting more Add another number to the score (All day, all day) Watch them all fall down (All day, all day) Domino dancing (All day, all day) Watch them all fall down (All day, all day, domino dancing) When you look around you wonder Do you play to win? Or are you just a bad loser? (All day, all day) (All day, all day) I don't know why, I don't know how I thought I loved you but I'm not sure now I hear the thunder crashing, the sky is dark And now a storm is breaking within my heart (*) (All day, all day) Watch them all fall down (All day, all day) Domino dancing (All day, all day) Watch them all fall down (All day, all day, domino dancing) |

I get out of bed at half past ten
Phone up a friend, who's a party animal Turn on the news and drink some tea Maybe if you're with me we'll do some shopping One day I'll read, or learn to drive a car If you pass the test, you can beat the rest But I don't like to compete, or talk street, street, street I can pick up the best from the party animal I could leave you, say goodbye Or I could love you, if I try And I could And left to my own devices, I probably would Pick up a brochure about the sun Learn to ignore what the photographer saw I was always told that you should join a club Stick with the gang, if you want to belong I was a lonely boy, no strength, no joy In a world of my own at the back of the garden I didn't want to compete, or play out on the street For in a secret life I was a round head general I could leave you, say goodbye Or I could love you, if I try And I could And left to my own devices, I probably would Left to my own devices, I probably would Oh, I would I was faced with a choice at a difficult age Would I write a book? Or should I take to the stage? But in the back of my head I heard distant feet Che Guevara and De'bussy to a disco beat It's not a crime when you look the way you do The way I like to picture you When I get home, it's late at night I pour a drink and watch the fight Turn off the TV, look at a book Pick up the phone, fix some food Maybe I'll sit up all night and day Waiting for the minute I hear you say I could leave you, say goodbye Or I could love you, if I try And I could And left to my own devices, I probably would Come on, baby, say goodbye Or I could love you, if I try And I could And left to my own devices, I probably would Left to my own devices, I probably would (Come on baby) Left to my own devices, I probably would |

I came across a cache of old photos
And invitations to teenage parties "Dress in white" one said, with quotations From someone's wife, a famous writer In the nineteen-twenties When you're young you find inspiration In anyone who's ever gone And opened up a closing door She said: "We were never feeling bored 'Cause we were never being boring We had too much time to find for ourselves And we were never being boring We dressed up and fought, then thought: 'Make amends' And we were never holding back or worried that Time would come to an end" When I went I left from the station With a haversack and some trepidation Someone said: "If you're not careful You'll have nothing left and nothing to care for In the nineteen-seventies" But I sat back and looking forward My shoes were high and I had scored I'd bolted through a closing door I would never find myself feeling bored 'Cause we were never being boring We had too much time to find for ourselves And we were never being boring We dressed up and fought, then thought: "Make amends" And we were never holding back or worried that Time would come to an end We were always hoping that, looking back You could always rely on a friend Now I sit with different faces In rented rooms and foreign places All the people I was kissing Some are here and some are missing In the nineteen-nineties I never dreamt that I would get to be The creature that I always meant to be But I thought in spite of dreams You'd be sitting somewhere here with me 'Cause we were never being boring We had too much time to find for ourselves And we were never being boring We dressed up and fought, then thought: "Make amends" And we were never holding back or worried that Time would come to an end We were always hoping that, looking back You could always rely on a friend And we were never being boring We were never being bored 'Cause we were never being boring We were never being bored |

I want to run, I want to hide
I want to break down the walls that hold me inside I want to reach out, and touch the flame Where the streets have no name I want to feel the sun on my face I see the dust cloud disappear without a trace I want to take shelter from poison rain Where the streets have no name We're still building, then burning down love Burning down love And when I go there I go there with you Where the streets have no name Can't take my eyes off of you I love you, baby, and if it's quite alright I need you, baby, to warm a lonely night So let me love you, baby Let me love you The city's aflood, our love turns to rust We're beaten and blown by the wind, trampled in dust I'll show you a place, high on a desert plain Where the streets have no name We're still building, then burning down love Burning down love And when I go there It's all I can do Where the streets have no name I can't take my eyes off of you Love you, baby, let me love you Where the streets have no name |

At dead of night, when strangers roam
The streets in search of anyone who'll take them home I lie alone, the clock strikes three And anyone who wanted to could contact me At dead of night, 'till break of day Endless thoughts and questions keep me awake It's much too late Where've you been? Who've you seen? You didn't phone when you said you would! Do you lie? Do you try to keep in touch? You know you could I've tried to see your point of view But could not hear or see For jealousy I never knew time pass so slow I wish I'd never met you, or that I could bear to let you go At dead of night, 'till break of day Endless thoughts and questions keep me awake It's much too late Where've you been? Who've you seen? You didn't phone when you said you would! Do you lie? Do you try to keep in touch? You know you could I've tried to see your point of view But could not hear or see For jealousy Where've you been? Who've you seen? You didn't phone when you said you would! Do you lie? Do you try to keep in touch? You know you could I've tried to see your point of view But could not hear or see For jealousy I never knew 'til I met you |

Well I don't know why I was dreaming about you
But I do know that I was dancing without you Then you smiled, and I was lost You fall in love, why count the cost? All I gave to you All you made me do I react when I hear people ask [Chorus] Was it worth it? Yes it's worth living for Was it worth it? Yes it's worth giving more If I'd had my way this would have happened much sooner But until that day it was only a rumour All at once you changed my life And led me in to paradise Where I had to do What I wanted to I react when I hear people ask [Chorus] I reserve the right to live My life this way, and I don't give A damn when I hear people say I'll pay the price that others pay Because it's worth it Yes it's worth living for Because it's worth it Yes it's worth living for All I gave to you All you made me do I react when I hear people ask [Chorus] And I reserve (what?) The right to live (where?) My life this way (how?) I couldn't give A damn when I (what?) Hear people say (who?) I'll pay the price That others pay [Chorus] I don't know why I never thought I'd fall in love I don't know why I don't know why I never thought I'd fall in love I don't know why I don't know why ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By TENNANT/LOWE <i>Lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC</i> |
