Looking back all I did was look away Next time is the best time we all know But if there is no next time where to go She's the sweetest queen I've ever seen (CPL593H) See here she comes see what I mean (CPL593H) I could talk talk talk talk talk myself to death But I believe I would only waste my breath Ooh show me (CPL593H) (CPL593H) I tried but I could not find a way Looking back all I did was look away Next time is the best time we all know But if there is no next time where to go She's the sweetest queen I've ever seen (CPL593H) See here she comes see what I mean (CPL593H) I could talk talk talk talk talk myself to death But I believe I would only waste my breath |

If there is something that I might find Look around corners Try to find peace of mind I say Where would you go if you were me Try to keep a straight course not easy Somebody special looking at me A certain reaction we find What should it try to be I mean If there are many Meaning the same Be specific just a game I would do anything for you I would climb mountains I would swim all the oceans blue I would walk a thousand miles Reveal my secrets More than enough for me to share I would put roses round our door Sit in the garden Growing potatoes by the score Shake your hair girl with your ponytail Takes me right back (when you were young) Throw your precious gifts into the air Watch them fall down (when you were young) Lift up your feet and put them on the ground You used to walk upon (when you were young) Lift up your feet and put them on the ground The hills were higher (when we were young) Lift up your feet and put them on the ground The trees were taller (when you were young) Lift up your feet and put them on the ground The grass was greener (when you were young) Lift up your feet and put them on the ground You used to walk upon (when you were young) |

Oh I was moved by your screen dream Celluloid pictures of living Your death could not kill our love for you Take two people - romantic Smoky nightclub situation Your cigarette traces a ladder Here's looking at you kid Celebrate years Here's looking at you kid Wipe away tears Long time, since we're together Now I hope it's forever Ideal love flies away now White jacket, mmmn, black tie wings too You gave her away to the hero Words don't express my meaning Notes could not spell out the score But finding not keeping's the lesson Here's looking at you kid Hard to forget Here's looking at you kid At least not yet Your memory stays It lingers ever Will fade away never |

I never thought I'd seen you again Where have you been until now' Well how are you' how have you been' It's a long time since we last met It seems like yesterday when I First saw you in your red dress smile How could I forget that day I know that time spent well is so rare |

I've been thinking now for a long time How to go my own separate way It's a shame to think about yesterday, It's a shame Now that we are lonely Life seems to get hard Alone what a word - lonely Alone it makes me cry Thought-train set in motion Wheels in and around Express our emotion Tracks up, then it cracks down We've been running round in our present state Hoping help would come from above But even angels there make the same mistakes In love |

There's a new sensation A fabulous creation A danceable solution To teenage revolution Do the Strand love When you feel love It's the new way That's why we say Do the Strand Do it on the tables Quaglino's place or Mabel's Slow and gentle Sentimental All styles served here Louis Seize he prefer Laissez-faire Le Strand Tired of the tango Fed up with fandango Dance on moonbeams Slide on rainbows In furs or blue jeans You know what I mean Do the Strand Had your fill of Quadrilles The Madison and cheap thrills Bored with the Beguine The samba isn't your scene They're playing our tune By the pale moon We're incognito Down the Lido And we like the Strand Arabs at oasis Eskimos and Chinese If you feel blue Look through Who's Who See La Goulue And Nijinsky Do the Strandsky Weary of the Waltz And mashed potato schmaltz Rhododendron Is a nice flower Evergreen It lasts forever But it can't beat Strand power The Sphynx and Mona Lisa Lolita and Guernica Did the Strand |

Valerie please believe it never could work out
The time to make plans has passed faded away Oooh the way you look makes my starry eyes shiver Then I look away too much for one day One thing we share is an ideal of beauty Treasure so rare that even devils might care Your swimming pool eyes in sea breezes they flutter The coconut tears heavy lidded they shed Swaying palms at your feet you're the pride of your street While you worship the sun summer lover of fun Gold number with neighbours who said that you'll go far Maybe someday be a star a fast mover like you And your dreams will all come true ... All of my hope and my inspiration I drew from you our life's patterns drawn in sand But the winds could not erase the memory of your face Deep in the night plying very strange cargo Our soul ships pass by solo trips to the stars in the sky Gliding so far that the eye cannot follow Where do they go? We'll never know |

Before I die I'll write this letter Here are the secrets you must know Until the cloak of evening shadow Changes to mantle of the dawn Will it be sunny then I wonder' Rolling and turning How can I sleep' Hold on till morning What if I fall' Over the hills and down the valleys Soaring aloft and far below Lying on stony ground the fragments Truth is the seed we tried to sow Marking the time spent on our journey There isn't much we have to show Counting the cost in money only Strikes me as funny don't you know' Tongue tied the thread of conversation Weighing the words one tries to use Nevertheless communication This is the gift you must not lose Hauling me always are the voices Tell us are you ready now' Sometimes I wonder if they're real We're ready to receive you now Or is it my own imagination' Have you any more to say' Guilt is a wound that's hard to heal It's a cross you have to bear Could it be evil thoughts become me Tell us what you're thinking now Some things are better left unsaid Magical moment The spell it is breaking There is no light here Is there no key' |

Well I'm here looking through an old picture frame Just waiting for the perfect view I hope something special will step in to my life Another fine edition of you A pin-up done in shades of blue Sometimes you find a yearning for the quiet life The country air and all its joys But badgers couldn't compensate at twice the price For just another night with the boys oh yeah And boys will be boys, will be boys They say love's a gamble, hard to win, easy lose And while sun shines you'd better make hay So if life is your table and fate is the wheel Then let the chips fall where they may In modern times the modern way And as I was drifting past the Lorelei I heard those slinky sirens wail - whooo So look out sailor when you hear them croon You'll never been the same again oh no Their crazy music drives you insane - this way So love, leave me. do what you will -Who knows what tomorrow might bring' Learn from your mistakes is my only advice And stay cool is still the main rule Don't play yourself for a fool Too much cheesecake too soon Old money's better than new No mention in the latest Tribune And don't let this happen to you |

In every dream home a heartache
And every step I take Takes me further from heaven Is there a heaven? I`d like to think so Standards of living They're rising daily But home oh sweet home It's only a saying From bell push to faucet In smart town apartment The cottage is pretty The main house a palace Penthouse perfection But what goes on What to do there Better pray there Open plan living Bungalow ranch style All of its comforts Seem so essential I bought you mail order My plain wrapper baby Your skin is like vinyl The perfect companion You float my new pool Deluxe and delightful Inflatable doll My role is to serve you Disposable darling Can't throw you away now Immortal and life size My breath is inside you I'll dress you up daily And keep you till death sighs Inflatable doll Lover ungrateful I blew up your body But you blew my mind Oh heartache, dream home heartache Oh heartache, dream home heartache Oh heartache, dream home heartache Oh heartache, dream home heartache |

The bogus man is on his way As fast as he can run He's tired but he'll get to you And shoot you with his gun Focussed his mind On something he cared about But it came out a shout Just like before The bogus man is at your heels Now clutching at your coat You must be quick now hurry up He's scratching at your throat Concealed his doubt By skilful evasion But he couldn't find out About deception The bogus man is on his way As fast as he can run He's tired but he'll get to you And show you lots of fun |

For your pleasure
In our present state Part false part true Like anything We present ourselves The words we use tumble All over your shoulder Gravel hard and loose There all night lying With your dark horse hiding Abhorring such extremes ... You’re rubbing shoulders With the stars at night Shining so bright Getting older But you'll wake up soon And fight In the morning Things you worried about Last night Will seem lighter I hope things Will turn out right Old man Through every step a change You watch me walk away Tara tara.... |

Wish everybody would leave me alone -yeah
They're always calling on my telephone When I pick it up there's no one there So I walk outside just to take the air Come on with me cruising down the street Who knows what you'll see, who you might meet This brave new world's not like yesterday It can take you higher than the milky way Now I'm blinded I can't really see - yeah No more bright lights confusing me - no Don't ask me why I'm feeling blue 'Cause loving you is all I can do Hey good-looking boys - gather around The sidewalk papers gutter-press you down All those lies can be so unkind, They can make you feel like you're losing your mind Street Life Street Life Street Life What a Life Back to nature boys - Vasser girls too Watch what you say, or think, or do Continental-style strasse girls might But you know exactly if it's wrong or right Education is an important key - yes But the good life's never won by degrees - no Pointless passing through Harvard or Yale Only window shopping - it's strictly no sale Week end starts Friday soon after eight Your jet black magic helps you celebrate You may be stranded if you stick around And that's really something |

Buttercup daisies And most anything They wither and fade After blossom in Spring Time conquers innocence Pride takes a fall In knowledge lies wisdom That's all Everything changes Weather blows hot or cold Through alchemy iron turns gold Quicksilver baby So hard to pin down Oh when are you coming around' Hopelessly grounded I walk through the streets Remembering how we spent time Hopefully yearning that someday we'll meet But when will we, how could we - why' Oh my! Fashion houses ladies Need plenty loose change When the latest creation Is last year's fab-rave Thought patterns hazy This auto-style age Will lady luck smile old and sage' She knows that ...... Never again, no, will I give up my heart To gamble with fate is my crime Nevertheless love, it's all here in my book I'd write it but don't have much time You see, I know it sounds crazy But what can I do' I've fallen head over heels, over you Chameleon colour All phases of moon The shifting of planets And leopard spots too As destiny wills it So seasons will change Just like you |

Amazona Is a zone where There is no doubt No more fall-out - Why don't you step Through the mirror and see' From Arizona To Eldorado Sure is a mighty long way. Hey little girl Is something wrong' I know it's hard For you to get along The bell-tower rings It tolls a hollow sound But your castles in Spain Still may be realised And longings more profound. You see - every cloud Has a silver lining And sometimes paradise Around your corner lies. In Amazona everything is nice Little one - come take my hand' I'll try to help you there - I'll take you there. Amazona's Getting closer Oh soon you'll see. Journey's over We're almost there |

Here as I sit
At this empty cafe Thinking of you I remember All those moments Lost in wonder That we'll never Find again Though the world Is my oyster It's only a shell Full of memories And here by the Seine Notre-Dame casts A long lonely shadow Now - only sorrow No tomorrow There's no today for us Nothing is there For us to share But yesterday These cities may change But there always remains My obsession Through silken waters My gondola glides And the bridge - it sighs... I remember All those moments Lost in wonder That we'll never Find again There's no more time for us Nothing is there For us to share But yesterdays Ecce momenta Illa mirabilia Quae captabit In aeternum Memor Modo dolores Sunt in dies Non est reliquum Vero tantum Comminicamus Perdita Tous ces moments Perdus dans l`enchantement Qui ne reviendront Jamais Pas d'aujourd'hui pour nous Pour nous il n'y a rien A partager Sauf le pass? |

Oh look at the sun - it's all a-glow Slow burning star - sinking low Heaven knows where you go Out of sight, out of minds eye, no Aw such a shame - you must leave All day long you were a friend to me Still - the moons company Until morning when larks will sing Horizons appointment youll keep For sunswept flamingos must sleep Scenes like these from my dreams Cover cutting-room floors all over ..... Warm heart we spin slowly from view Why are you sad - do you disapprove? How weve wasted our time Sunset - end of my day - my decline Postscript you trace colours the sky Red-letter light fades, is filed away Sunburst fingers you raise One last sigh of farewell - goodbye |

The sky is dark
The wind is cold The night is young Before it's old and grey We will know The trill of it all The time has come It's getting late It's now or never Don't hesitate or stall When I call Don't spoil The thrill of it all And before you go to sleep at night Preying shadows - do they ask you why? And in the morning through the afternoon Do you wonder where you're going to? ... Every word I use Each crumpled page Strange ideas Mature with age Like leaves When autumn falls Turn gold Then they hit the ground Every time I hear The latest sound It’s pure whiskey Reeling round and around My brain Oh and all o’ that jive It’s driving me wild - The dizzy spin I’m in Everywhere I look I see your face I hear your name It’s all over the place Hey girl Though you’ve gone Still I recall The trill of it all You might as well know what is right for you And make the most of what you like to do For all the pleasure that’s surrounding you Should compensate for all you’re going through ... So if you’re feeling fraught With mental strain Too much thinking’s got you down again Well let your senses skip Stay hip Keep cool To the thrill of it all When you try too much You lose control Pressure rises And so I’m told Something’s got the give Oy Veh High life ecstasy You might as well live I can’t see I can’t speak I couldn’t take more than another week Without you - oh no So I will drink my fill Till the trill is you Oh the thrill of it all Oh the thrill of it all No I won’t forget The thrill of it all No no no no no no no.... |

You might remember
How it used to be 3 and 9 could show you Any fantasy Parti-coloured pictures Now and then 3D No cheap nostalgia Conjured up by me ... Back to the old days Close to home Show me some new ways I'll carry on Whether making out or played out Three and nine make twelve I've a dozen reasons Lying on the shelf B feature back rows Filed away No point pretending Change is here to stay 3 and 9 to 45 Decimal romance If you've warmed to centigrade You stand a sporting chance ... I'm not so special You're a misfit too Why must they interfere In everything we do? Should we play safe now Or go all the way? Six and two threes now More I cannot say |

Somebody told me
Just the other day That you're leaving me We're through Well if you knew How it hurt me so Then you'd change your mind I'm sure Don't want to hear What's going on I don't care What's new Don't want to know About anything Cause all I want Is you Going out with other girls Was always such a bore But since I fell in love with you I need you more and more Don't want to know About one-night-stands Cut-price souvenirs All I want is The real thing And a night that lasts For years. If you ever change your mind I've a certain cure An old refrain, it lingers on L'amour, toujours l'amour Don't want to learn About etiquette From glossy magazines Why should I try To talk correct Like they do In another scenes Say no more About imagery You're starting to confuse Just make an offer Of more romance Of course I can't refuse All I want is you Oo oo I'm all cracked up on you. ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By FERRY <i>Lyrics © Universal Music Publishing Group</i> |

All you cares
Now they seem Oh so far away All your fears I fear I once shared Now I know There's a future For all of us Not so long ago I was so scared You seemed so sad I could see Through your twisted smile So unsure Always confused Pale blue eyes Gazing down From your ivory tower Through the haze All broken and bruised Then: out of the blue Love came rushing in Out of the sky Came the sun Out of left field Came a lucky day Out of the blue No more pain I don't mind If it's only A passing craze Throwaway lines Often ring true If I were you I would stay For a little while I you were me Would you walk out In style? |

Well this is such A sad affair Ive opened up my heart So many times But now its closed Oh my dear Every salted tear It wrings Bitter - sweet applause But when the shows in full swing Every once in a while High stepping chorus lines Mean Im forgetting Mein lullaby - liebchen How rich in contrast Love can be Sometimes Im quite amused To see it twist and turn To taste - both sweet and dry These vintage years! Lovers you consume, my friend As others their wine Nein - das ist nicht Das ende der welt Gestrandet an leben und kunst Und das spiel geht weiter Wie man weiss Noch viele schnste...wiedershen And now, as you turn to leave You try to force a smile - As if to compensate - Then you break down and cry |

You - the hero So many times You've loved And didn't linger Now my finger Points at you - Another loser You - an island On your own Complete In every detail Monumental A precious jewel Or just a fool Innovator It's in your mind And blood I watch it simmer I see you're courting More despair No hope' Not a glimmer Now you're nothing But second hand In glove With second rate now Now you're flirting With heroin - Or is it cocaine' Casanova - Is that your name Or do you live there' I know my place Is here with you Tonight But not together |

You're heard enough Of the blues and stuff You're pretty swell now 'Cause you're pretty tough But I don't have to tell you How hard it can be to get by You never bothered About anyone else You're well educated With no common sense But love - that's one thing You really need to get by All your troubles Come from yourself Nobody hurts you - They don't care Just as long as you show them A really good time All the things You used to do A trip to the movies A drink or two They don't satisfy you They don't tell you anything new You know I don't talk much Except to myself 'Cause I've not much to say And there's nobody else Who's ready and willing And able to know me - I guess Listen to me I'm not finished yet There's something to tell you That I can't forget Just have a really good time There's a girl I used to know Her face is her fortune She's got a heart of gold She never goes out much But boy - when she does Then you know She's got no money Well, maybe a dime But she knows what she's worth And that's reason why She's gonna make it She's got what it takes You'll appreciate that She's probably late But I know And you know We all know She'll have a really good time |

'T ain't no big thing to wait for the bell to ring
't ain't no big thing the toll of the bell. Aggravated spare for days I troll down town the redlight place Jump up bubble up what's in store Love is the drug and I need to score. Showing out showing out Hit and run Boy meets girl where the beat goes on Stiched up tight can't shake free Love is the drug got a hook on me Oh catch that buzz love is the drug I'm thinking of Oh can't you see love is the drug for me. Late at night I parked my car staked my place in the singles bar. Face to face toe to toe Heart to heart as we hit the floor. Lumbered up limbo down The locked embrace stumble round I say go she say yes Dim the lights you can guess the rest. Oh catch the buzz |

Surely you cannot be leading me on?
Well if that??s so, oh never again will I love How could I believe again? How can I hold on? Sentimental fool Knowing fate is cruel, You ought to forget it. Yes, I know it??s true, I??ve seen what love can do, But I don??t regret it. Oh, you silly thing- Can??t you see what??s happening? You??re better without it. No, that??s not the case- If you were in my place, Then you wouldn't doubt it. Sentimental fool Who broke the golden rule? You couldn??t resist it. Though it??s all in vain, I??d do it all again Just to re-live one minute. A woman in love Can make you feel good- You know what you??re living for. She??ll give you so much And keep you in touch With all that??s worth living for. Oh once she gets in Through thick and through thin She??ll show you what living??s for. The rhythm of love It must go on Can??t stop. The beat of your heart Is like a drum Will it stop? |

To delight in your company? Could it happen to me? Do you know what I쨈m certain of? I would love to fall in love Could it happened to me? Hey - won쨈t you look at me? Now I??m cracked wide open - I can??t conceal My all over trembling - I??m acting strange And while you??re out of reach, I never change God knows - I??m beside myself If a tear??s a crime, then I must confess My guilty secret - I??m not ashamed Take me as I am - an average man Oh boy, is it getting rough When my old world charm isn??t quite enough? I throw you cantos - I jazz ??em up but when I lay me down - you don??t pick up Once more it??s a crying shame Only this time no-one but myself to blame All I touch turns to dust It??s right there in my cards - I ought to cut Let us sing of the tortured heart And the lonely soul in this world apart As he plays a field - takes a little pain then move our separate ways again Is it easy to say ??I do?? At this moment, 'I love you' Seems beyond me, it??s true Now that evening is closing in Should I light that fire again? Could it happen to me? Did it happen to you? |

Tell me will I ever learn? It's too late, the rush is on Both ends burning and I can't control The fires raging in my soul tonight Oh will it never end? Put your foot around the bend Drive me crazy to an early grave Tell me what is there to save tonight Both ends burning Burning Burn Keep on burning till the end, until the end Keep on burning till the end, the very end |

I쨈m just another crazy guy playing at love was another high Just another high Couldn??t believe in my eyes You drifted into my life But marriages made in heaven Can they survive in this life? Surely it came as no surprise Love was too hot to handle? Well I really blew my cool, and you, you just blew out the candle... Didn??t you just try just another high? Didn??t you sign as you waved goodbye - 'just another high? I??m just another crazy guy playing with love was another high such a crazy high Lately it seems so empty here But I suppose I??m alright Maybe tomorrow??s not so clear Still I remember that night Singing to you like this is my only way to reach you and though I쨈m too proud to say it oh how I long too see you Shattered my dreams by your goodbye shattered my hopes - they fill the sky Desolate am I I'm just another crazy guy playing at love was another high just another high just another high just another high such a crazy high Maybe I should start anew and maybe I'll find someone who will maybe love me like I love you but maybe I쨈m too stuck on you yes maybe I got stuck on you maybe I got stuck on you |

I am for a life around the corner
That takes you by surprise That comes leaves all you need And more besides I am for a life and time by numbers Blast in fast 'n' low Add 'em up, account for luck You never know I am into friendship and plain sailing Through frenzied ports o' call O shake the hand to beat the band With love is all Or nothing to the man who wants tomorrow There's one in every town A crazy guy, he'd rather die Than be tied down I am for the man who drives the hammer To rock you 'til the grave His power drill shocks A million miles away I am for the revolution's coming I don't know where she's been For those who dare because it's there I know I've seen Now and then I've suffered imperfection I've studied marble flaws And faces drawn pale and worn By many tears I am that I am from out of nowhere to fight without a cause Roots strain against the grain With brute force you'd better Hold out when you're in doubt Question what you see And when you find an answer Bring it home to me. |

Through the undercover hour
Bad and bleak To be brief, too much sorrow And flesh is weak No more feelings No more tears The river's wide enough Flowing stronger through the years Silver lips, kisses borrowed Glances steal To quick, how they quiver Too late they're sealed No more feelings No more tears The river's wide enough Flowing stronger through the years |

I've been around
So far it seems Too bad the blues Blew my schemes Dynamite Such sweet surprise In southern heat Or northern skies Ain't that so Shadows cling Where shutters close Who can tell Heaven knows Why some can laugh And some can sing Stand in line Or get on down and swing Ain't that so Cross the street who's ringing bells? Peeling walls Of cheap hotels Neon flare A sudden chill And there you lie And time stands still Ain't that so |

Yesterday - well it seemed so cool
When I walked you home, kissed goodnight I said "it's love" you said "all right" It's funny how I could never cry Until tonight and you pass by Hand in hand with another guy You're dressed to kill and guess who's dying? Dance away the heartache Dance away the tears Dance away Loneliness is a crowded room Full of open hearts turned to stone All together all alone All at once my whole world had changed Now I'm in the dark, off the wall Let the strobe light up them all I close my eyes and dance till dawn Dance away Now I know I must walk the line Until I find an open door There was I - many times a fool I hope and pray, but not too much Out of reach is out of touch All the way is far enough Dance away |

Some expression in your eyes
overtook me by surprise where was I how was I to know ? How we can drive to a movie show when the music is here in my car ? There's a band playing on the radio with a rhythm of rhyming guitars they're playing oh yeah on the radio. And so it came to be our song and so on through all summer long day and night drifting on into love. Driving you home from a movie show so in tune to the sounds in my car. There's a band playing on the radio ... It's some time since we said goodbye and now we lead our seperate lives. But where am I where can I go ? Driving alone to a movie show so I turn to the sounds in my car. There's a band playing on the radio and it's drowing the sound of my tears. They're playing oh yeah on the radio. |

do I ever wonder?
more than words can say heaven knows it's hard enough to pray let me tell you something there's a change in me even now you're gone you'll always be my only love does it seem so funny for a fool to cry? do you know the meaning of goodbye? there's a river flowing by a willow tree when you need to know remember me my only love let me tell you something more than words can say but they're all I have, no other way there's a river flowing by a willow tree when you find you're there remember me my only love |

Oh baby this is nowhere.
Wish I was somewhere - over you. Your sweet lips tell me there's no chance No more romance - over you. Oh baby how can I go on. Crying so long - over you. Where strangers look for new love I'm so lost in love - over you. Some day yes it might come babe When I'll bebabe - over you. And always up to that moment I will try to say I'm - over you. Oh baby how can I go on? Crying so long - over you. Where stranger look for new love I'm so lost in love - over you. |

so there goes your life
disappeared from ever loving friends and now a slave to obsession your strange delight you lie awake how your senses ache shaking off the night is there more strange delight? there goes your self in the clear forever out of line and there you'll stray through obsession your strange delight can't bear this heat your poor heart skips a beat tearing off the years to when you really cared so where's your soul? in the field where every story ends and then how plain your obsession your strange delight so this is hell not so hard to tell better men than I have tried your strange delight is there no strange delight |

I could feel at the time
There was no way of knowing Fallen leaves in the night Who can say where they're blowing As free as the wind And hopefully learning Why the sea on the tide Has no way of turning CHORUS More than this-there is nothing More than this-tell me one thing More than this-thre is nothing It was fun for a while There was no way of knowing Like a dream in the night Who can say where we're going No care in the world Maybe I'm learning Why the sea on the tide Has no way of turning CHORUS |

Now the party's over
I'm so tired. Then I see you coming out of nowhere. Much communication in a motion Without conversation or a notion. - Avalon Where the samba takes you out of nowhere And the background's fading out of focus. Yes the picture's changing every moment and your destination you don't know it. - Avalon Dancing dancing dancing @ dancing. When you bossa nova there's no holding Would you have me dancing out of nowhere. - Avalon Avalon Avalon Avalon Avalon Avalon |

All of those people
Everywhere Ever so needing Where's it all leading Tell me where Nothing insincere I'd better have pity I'd better go easy I never will lay down While my heart is still beating Where's it all leading Walk on air Am I still dreaming Words to spare Lost in their meaning I'd better be strong now I'd better stop dreaming My heart has flown away now Will it never stop bleeding? |

As they say, two can play But keep that song away from me In my time, too much love Has made me sad for so long I was blind, can't you see Through the long, lonely night Heaven knows I believe Won't you take a chance with me Sometimes I get so blue People say I'm just a fool All the world, even you Should learn to love the way I do I was lost, can't you see Through the long, lonely night Haven knows, I believe You can take a chance with me |

I could show you in a word
If I wanted to A window on a world With a lovely view >From close up inside a single room With an open book aside Like you read in school It's so easy, believe me When you need fun I'd do anything to turn you on Anything to to turn you on Is it raining in New York On Fifth Avenue And off Broadway after dark Love the lights, don't you I could walk you through the park If you're feeling blue Or whatever Spring, summer, whenever Winter through fall I'd do anything to turn you on Anything to turn you on I could leave you as you were If I wanted to Then I wonder, is it fair Now you're on your own Who cares about you Except me, God help me When things go wrong I'd do anything to turn you on Must phone me, you know me When things go wrong I'd do anything to turn you on |

Make me a deal and make it straight
All signed and sealed, I´ll take it To Robert E. Lee I´ll show it I hope and pray he don´t blow it ´cause We´ve been around a long time just try try try tryin´ to Make the big time... Take me on a roller coaster Take me for an airplane ride Take me for a six days wonder but don´t you Don´t you throw my pride aside besides What´s real and make believe Baby Jane´s in Acapulco We are flyin´ down to Rio Throw me a line I´m sinking fast Clutching at straws can´t make it Havana sound we´re trying hard edge the hipster jiving Last picture shows down the drive-in You´re so sheer you´re so chic Teenage rebel of the week Flavours of the mountain steamline Midnight blue casino floors Dance the cha-cha through till sunrise Open up exclusive doors oh wow! Just like flamingos look the same So me and you, just we two got to search for something new Far beyond the pale horizon Some place near the desert strand Where my Studebaker takes me That´s where I´ll make my stand but wait Can´t you see that Holzer mane? What´s her name Virginia Plain |

(Ferry)
Couldn't sleep a wink last night Oh how I'd love to hold you tight They say you have a secret life Made sacrifice your key to paradise Never mind, take the world by storm Just boogaloo a rhapsody divine Take a sweet girl just like you How nice if only we could bill and coo I may seem a fool to you for ev'rything I say or think or do How could I apologise for all those lies The world may keeps us far apart but up in heaven, angel You can have my heart Diamonds may be your best friend But like laughter after tears I'll follow you to the end |

I am for a life around the corner
That takes you by surprise That comes leaves all you need And more besides I am for a life and time by numbers Blast in fast 'n' low Add 'em up, account for luck You never know I am into friendship and plain sailing Through frenzied ports o' call O shake the hand to beat the band With love is all Or nothing to the man who wants tomorrow There's one in every town A crazy guy, he'd rather die Than be tied down I am for the man who drives the hammer To rock you 'til the grave His power drill shocks A million miles away I am for the revolution's coming I don't know where she's been For those who dare because it's there I know I've seen Now and then I've suffered imperfection I've studied marble flaws And faces drawn pale and worn By many tears I am that I am from out of nowhere to fight without a cause Roots strain against the grain With brute force you'd better Hold out when you're in doubt Question what you see And when you find an answer Bring it home to me. |

Oh angel eyes
Am I deceived or did you sigh? For all I know you let your love light Shine on me Oh angel eyes You never close, who's got the time? Well I can wait until your love light Shine on me Oh angel eyes Seems to me you fill the skies I'm far below so let your love light Shine on me Oh angel eyes On the wing and opened wide Now matter now how how the moon Shine down on me [Repeat: x4] Angel, angel eyes ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By FERRY, MACKAY <i>Lyrics © Universal Music Publishing Group</i> |

Following the morning star
But there's no sense In always running Take what you want to know Just give me time Always unknowing World passing by That's how it looks Always unknowing Don't you leave my side There is no sense In always running Just one more time Is all I need Always unknowing Hold back tonight With your sight Always unknowing |

I was dreaming of the past
And my heart was beating fast I began to lose control I began to lose control I didn't mean to hurt you I'm sorry that I made you cry Oh no, I didn't want to hurt you I'm just a jealous guy I was feeling insecure You might not love me anymore I was shivering inside I was shivering inside I didn't mean to hurt you I'm sorry that I made you cry Oh no, I didn't want to hurt you I'm just a jealous guy I didn't mean to hurt you I'm sorry that I made you cry Oh no, I didn't want to hurt you I'm just a jealous guy I was trying to catch your eyes Thought that you was trying to hide I was swallowing my pain I was swallowing my pain I didn't mean to hurt you I'm sorry that I made you cry Oh no, I didn't want to hurt you I'm just a jealous guy, watch out I'm just a jealous guy, look out babe I'm just a jealous guy |
