It was late at night on the open road, speeding like a man on the run
A lifetime spent preparing for the journey. He is closer now and the search is on, reading from a map in the mind: Yes there's that ragged hill and there's a boat on the river. And when the rain came down, he heard a wild dog howl There were voices in the night (Don't do it!) Voices out of sight (Dont't do it!) Too many men have failed before, whatever you do; Don't pay the ferryman! Don't even fix a price! Don't pay the ferryman Until he gets you to the other side. In the rolling mist, then he gets on board, now there'll be no turning back Beware that hooded old man at the rudder. And then the lightning flashed and the thunder roared, and people calling out his name, And dancing bones that jabbered-and-a-moaned on the water. And then the ferryman said "There is trouble ahead, So you must pay me now." (Don't do it!) "You must pay me now." (Don't do it!) And still that voice came from beyond, whatever you do; Don't pay the ferryman! Don't even fix a price! Don't pay the ferryman Until he gets you to the other side. |

I've got the roses, I've got the wine,
With a little luck she will be here on time, This is the place we used to go, With romantic music and the lights down low, And as you stand there amazed at the door, And you're wondering what all this is for, It's just a simple thing, from me to you, The lady that I adore, 'cos there's something That you should know, it's that I've been missing you, more than words can say, And that I've been thinking about it every day, And the time we had just dancing nice and slow, And I said now I've found you, I'm never letting go; There is no reason to the things that we do, You can break a heart with just a word or two, And take a lifetime to apologise, When the one you love's in front of your eyes, And I will fall to my knees like a fool, If it's the only way of getting through, You see if I think you are beautiful, Someone else is going to feel it too, So there's only one thing to do, tell you that I've been missing you, more than words can say, And that I've been thinking about it every day, Well tonight's our night for dancing nice and slow, Because now I've found you, I'm never letting go, No, now I've found you, I'm never letting go; I've been missing you... I've been missing you... I've been missing you... I've been missing you, darling... |

Ship to shore, do you read
me anymore. This line is bad, and fading, Ship to shore, answer my call, Send me a signal, a beacon to bring me home; I have been to see the world, tasted life at every turn, And all the time, Your face came back to haunt me; Day by day the feeling grew, I know I'm still in love with you, The farther that I go, the more I know it, I wanna show it, Ship to shore, do you read me anymore. This line is bad, and fading, Ship to shore, answer my call, Send me a signal, a beacon to bring me home; Moving fast, all systems go, You and I had time to grow, Before there was a breakdown in transmission; How I wish that we could turn The clock back to the days when We were lovers in the true sense of the meaning, you must believe me, Ship to shore, do you read me anymore. This line is bad, I'm drowning, Ship to shore, answer my call, Send me a signal, a beacon to bring me home; Ship to shore, ship to shore, ship to shore... I cannot believe my eyes, But I think I see a light; You are everything I've always Wanted in my life |

I've never seen you looking to lovely as you did tonight
I've never seen you shine so bright I've never seen so many men ask you if you wanted to dance They're looking for a little romance, given half a chance I have never seen that dress you're wearing Or the highlights in your hair that catch your eyes I have been blind *The lady in red is dancing with me cheek to cheek There's nobody here, it's just you and me, It's where I wanna be But I hardly know this beauty by my side I'll never for get, the way you look tonight I've never seen you looking to gorgeous as you did tonight I've never seen you shine so bright you were amazing I've never seen so many people want to be there by your side And when you turned to me and smiled, It took my breath away I have never had such a feeling Such a feeling of complete and utter love, as I do tonight *Repeat I never will forget, the way you look tonight The lady in red The lady in red The lady in red My lady in red (I love you.) |

There is something on my mind,
and I'm losing concentration And I feel it everytime, that you are near me. I could tell you all about, your picture at my bedside, I should call you sometime, and talk it over. 'Cos I get a kick inside, and I feel a tingle too, It just comes from time to time, And it only happens, When I think of You, sleeping, when I'm dreaming, when I wake up, when I think of you, walking, when I'm talking, when I look up, when I think of You, take me away to a land of mass confusion, And I don't know what to say, when I am near you, I could stand here all day long, just staring at your window, But I have so much to do, that's so important, Then I get a kick inside, and I feel a tingle too, It just comes from time to time, And it only happens, When I think of You, sleeping, when I'm dreaming, when I wake up, When I think of you, walking, when I'm talking, when I look up, when I think of You may get the feeling that I'm dancing on the ceiling, When I get a kick inside, and my head is spinning too, It just comes from time to time, And it only happens When I think of You, sleeping, when I'm dreaming, when I wake up, When I think of you, when I whisper to your picture, when I kiss it, when I think of you When I think of you, when I'm dreaming we're together, on my sofa, When I think of you, when I'm wishing that we're kissing, when we're dancing, When I think of you. |

Waiting at the water's edge
Watching all the ships As they are heading for the harbour wall, I was just a boy, I was just a boy, Dreaming of the wide world, Dreaming of the wide world; Watching as they disappear, Reading out the names Of all the places I have never been, Looking out to sea, Staring out to sea, Dreaming of a wide world, Dreaming of the wide world, I wish I was sailing away, Sailing away, Sailing away, with you tonight, With you tonight; Walking down another street, Underneath the red lights, I am watching where the shadows fall, Looking at the girls, Listening to the girls, Dreaming of a new world, Dreaming of that new world, I wish I was sailing away, Sailing away, Sailing away, in your arms tonight, In your arms tonight; I wish I was sailing away, Sailing away, Sailing away, with you now, With you now... |

Oh how, at the journey's end,
I lie in the heat of the night, Feeling the heartache, wondering why, I want a friend, I want a friend to lay down beside me, I want a friend, I want her now, Someone who knows what I mean When I say, that I need Tender hands to hold me, I need tender hands tonight, Will you lay them on my shoulders, Will you lay them on my eyes, And I need tender hands to take me, All the way to paradise, And then, when it's over, I need tender hands To hold me through the night; Touch me with your velvet mouth, I will give all the love that I have, Under the moonlight, reaching your heart, Where are you now, where are you now, Come out of the shadows, Where are you now, I want you now, You know that I cannot always be strong, And I need Tender hands to hold me, I need tender hands tonight, Will you lay them on my shoulders, Will you lay them on my eyes, And I need tender hands to take me, All the way to paradise, And then, when it's over, I need tender hands To hold me through the night; I am only a voice in a city of noise, Can you hear me this time, I see the storm grow, There's a light in the desert tonight; And I need tender hands, Give me tender hands, Will you lay them on my shoulders, Oh give me Tender hands to take me All the way to paradise, And then, when it's over, I have tender hands To hold you through the night, darling, My tender hands will hold you Through the night; I want your tender hands, You have tender hands, I want those tender hands, Tender hands... |

A spaceman came traveling on his ship from afar
'Twas light years of time since his mission did start And over a village he halted his craft And it hung in the sky like a star Just like a star ----- He followed a light and came down to a shed Where a mother and child were lying there on a bed A bright light of silver shone round his head And he had the face of an angel And they were afraid ----- Then the stranger spoke He said" Do not fear I come from a planet a long way from here And I bring a message for mankind to hear" And suddenly the sweetest music filled the air ---- And it went la la ------ Peace and goodwill to all men And love for the child ------ This lovely music went trembling through the ground And many were wakened on hearing that sound And travelers on the road The village they found by the light of that ship in the sky Which shone all around ----- And just before dawn At the paling of the sky The stranger returned and said " Now I must fly When two thousand years of your time has gone by This song will begin once again, to a baby's cry --" And it went la la ------ This song will begin once again To a baby's cry ---- And it goes la la ---- Peace and goodwill to all men And love for the child ---- Oh the whole world is waiting Waiting to hear the song again There are thousands standing on the edge of the world And a star is moving somewhere The time is nearly here This song will begin once again To a baby's cry ---- |

I Want It.....
Four in the morning and I just can't sleep I've got a craving now for something sweet So I head off for my local all-night supermarket, When I get there, it's deserted; And now I'm standing at the chocolate shelf, Under the sign that says, "Help Yourself" If you really gotta have it, then we really gotta sell it to ya This is for people who say.... I want it and I want it now! I want it and I just can't wait! I want it and I want it now. I want it and I will not wait...... I want it.......now I sit at home and when I watch TV, I gotta have remote control with me, Oh and when I'm watching football, I can go to total recall, I got freeze frame, I got slo - mo. This is the way that it was meant to be, You gotta get ready for the century I'm a total modern man, And I got total modern plans And it's so easy when you say..... I want it and I want it now! I want it and I just can't wait! I want it and I want it now. I gotta get a feel to try, gotta get a meal inside, Gotta get a deal tonight, I gotta say.... I want it now, I want it now, I want it now, And I just can't wait.... I want it and I want it now! I want it and I just can't wait! I want it and I want it now. I want it and I will not wait... I want it now, I want it now, I want it now, And I just can't wait I want it now, I want it now, I want it now, And I just can't wait Here it is the new sensation, Listen to the new generation, We want something, we want it now! You don't need no invitation, Listen to the new conversation, We want something, we want it now....... We want it now, |

I'm standing in the station,
I am waiting for a train, To take me to the border, And my loved one far away, I watched a bunch of soldiers heading for the war, I could hardly even bear to see them go; Rolling through the countryside, Tears are in my eyes, We're coming to the borderline, I'm ready with my lies, And in the early morning rain, I see her there, And I know I'll have to say goodbye again; And it's breaking my heart, I know what I must do, I hear my country call me, but I want to be with you, I'm taking my side, one of us will lose, Don't let go, I want to know, That you will wait for me until the day, There's no borderline, no borderline; Walking past the border guards, Reaching for her hand, Showing no emotion, I want to break into a run, But these are only boys, and I will never know, How men can see the wisdom in a war... And it's breaking my heart, I know what I must do, I hear my country call me, but I want to be with you, I'm taking my side, one of us will lose, Don't let go, I want to know, That you will wait for me until the day, There's no borderline, no borderline, No borderline, no borderline... |

We took a boat over Lake Geneva.
It was raining all night long, We were lucky and we saw no enemy, And came from Switzerland poor refugees, Far from the guns of war, We said goodbye to it all; They brought us in to a nurse's station, Half a mile behind the lines, Oh Lord, how my heart was breaking, To see the children, and the walking wounded, Hoping for a ticket home, And say goodbye to it all; I woke up on a cold blue morning, To see her there, standing right beside me, Long years since I left her at the borderline, And how she found me I'd never know, But we decided there and then, To say goodbye to it all; Say goodbye to it all, Say goodbye to it all.... Took a train from Paris to the ocean, Found a small hotel by the coast, As we walked along the beaches of Normandy, We came to Juno, Omaha and Gold, And whispered a prayer for the boys, Who said goodbye to it all; Now we've got our own place by the water, And I have a job in the old hotel, She is ready and she's hoping for a daughter, Well I don't mind, we've made our choice. We've got all the time in the world, We said goodbye to it all, We said goodbye co it all. Say goodbye to it all, Say goodbye to it all, Say goodbye to it all, Say goodbye to it all. |

Restless heart, it has been a long time
Out here on the journey, for a glimpse of paradise It's getting hard to find a place to go Where peaceful waters flow. I took a walk past the old saxon well Down by the cathedral, I heard the chapel bell And joined the people singing for a way to go Where peaceful waters flow. And if you don't know by now, you never will Only love can find the door If you could see it now, it's in your hands Only love can reach the shore, to heaven Always, she is standing by my side She's my inspiration, and she's my battle-cry And in her arms is the only place I know Where peaceful waters flow. And if you don't know by now, you never will Only love can find the door If you could see it now, it's in your hands Only love can reach the shore, to heaven |

Oh my heart is spinning like a wheel,
Only she can see the way that I fell, Eyes are holding right across the room, High explosion coming out of the blue; Well here we go again, Living in a world that others cannot share, Yea here we go again, We are moving from a spark to a flame; I am high on emotion, high again, High on emotion, your love will find the way; Oh my heart is burning like a fire, Closer now and she is breathing desire, Take my hand and give it all your light, Take command I am your rhythm tonight; Well here we go again, Living in a world that others cannot share, Yea here we go again, We are moving from a spark to a flame; I am high on emotion, high again, High on emotion, your love will find the way; I am high on emotion, high again, High on emotion, your love will find the way; High on emotion, high again, High on emotion, your love will find the way; |
