Hold me tight, we've got a way to go tonight We tore ourselves apart in spite of all the promises we made Name your price but take a note of my advice Don't ever make a sacrifice without a chance of being paid. No return, you've reached the point of no return You lit the fire and let it burn You've reached the point of no return. Right or wrong, I was with you all along But now you're back where you belong among your family and friends Make or break, we really made a big mistake There's one decision left to take and that is how the story ends. No return, you've reached the point of no return You lit the fire and let it burn You've reached the point of no return, no return. Through my life is a mystery, my heart is an open page If only you would choose to read between the lines of age. No return, you've reached the point of no return No return, you lit the fire and let it burn No return, you've reached the point of no return No return, you lit the fire and let it burn No return, you've reached the point of no return No return, you lit the fire .. |

Joey and me were out on the freeway leaving the city race Out of the hustle, into the country, searching for open space Shoulder to shoulder, mile for mile, but neither of us knew where Sleeping at night out under the stars, inhaling the mountain air. Under the open skies, living in paradise Joey and me were free Nobody else allowed, anyone more's a crowd Joey and me makes three. Often we talked of wasting our time and bridges that we had crossed But mostly we looked in vain for ourselves forgetting that we were lost Joey and me were two of a kind in love with our own ideals Aiming to keep the gathering years in pace with our rolling wheels. Under the open skies, living in paradise Joey and me were free Nobody else allowed, anyone more's a crowd Joey and me makes three. Let me tell you how it all went wrong How me and Joey didn't belong We were tripping the light fantastic (Intergalactic) Joey and me. The wilderness road had taken its toll, I knew I could never last The lines had gone down in a flurry of snow, the winter was on us fast I made my way back into the city, hitched to a guiding star Joey is out on his own again, he's richer than me by far. Under the open skies, living in paradise Joey and me were free Nobody else allowed, anyone more's a crowd Joey and me makes three. Under the open skies, living in paradise Joey and me were free Nobody else allowed, anyone more's a crowd Joey and me makes three. Under the open skies, living in paradise Joey and me were free Nobody else allowed, anyone more's a crowd Joey and me makes three. … |

I must have been the saddest man who ever wrote a love song For when I spoke of ways and means, I knew it would not last long After all the years, the growing pains and heartaches I swore that I would die for you and sealed it with a traitor's kiss. We must have been a crazy pair to think we'd stay together I hope you find your own new world and make it last forever You gave me your best, I gave you all my worst years I swore that I would die for you and sealed it with a traitor's kiss. Thank you for your sympathy God bless you for your kindness I'm sure that as the years roll by You'll understand my sadness. I can't have been the only man who ever wrote a song for you. Take care of the kids, I didn't want to hurt them I swore that I would die for you and sealed it with a traitor's kiss. |

This is the last resort you'll ever know The old straight track, the long way back One more familiar face has gone Will you miss me ? I doubt it. There are many more at the last resort There are many more at the last resort. This is the last resort you'll ever take The summer old, the winter cold And now the seasons will never change Will you miss me ? I doubt it. There are many more at the last resort There are many more at the last resort. This is the last resort, it's make or break The ray of hope, the silken rope, your feet are on the endless slope Just one more chance to touch the sun Will you miss me ? I doubt it, the damage has been done. This is the last resort you'll ever know The lights are down on you favourite clown The time has come, the final bow Will you miss me ? I doubt it. There are many more at the last resort There are many more at the last resort There are many more at the last resort There are many more at the last resort. |

Time is the power, the enemy hour The soul survivor of the news, the headlines Life is a friend, I value its end For I can take it when I choose, the deadlines. Time and life will meet at dawn The swords have been drawn for the takers. Time has no heart, it wins from the start Was I so foolish as to try to ignore it ? Life is complete and proud in defeat At last I understand why I adore it. Time and life fight to the end But life has to bend to her makers. Time and life will meet at dawn The swords have been drawn for the takers Time and life fight to the end But life has to bend to her makers Time and life will meet at dawn The swords have been drawn for the takers Time and life fight to the end But life has to bend to her makers Time and life will meet at dawn The swords have been drawn for the takers Time and life fight to the end But life has to bend. |

I see myself reborn in every generation I took to children for my source and my salvation And I will build my house of rock on their foundation stone. I can see the new beginning The universal loser winning I can hear the children singing Making a date with tomorrow. Once I was blinded by the light of my reflection The mirror's eyes were moist with tears of deep affection I could not see my way to make the last connection home. I can see the new beginning The universal loser winning I can hear the children singing Making a date with tomorrow. The leaves of my life have been falling And time rolls along like a wheel The innocent games that we once played as kids are for real. I can see the new beginning The universal loser winning I can hear the children singing Making a date with tomorrow. I can see the new beginning The universal loser winning I can hear the children singing Making a date with tomorrow. I can see the new beginning The universal loser winning I can hear the children singing Making a date with tomorrow. |

The silent prophet seeks his inspiration after midnight With a candle lit for comfort in the shadow of the shade Belladonna waves a parasol beneath the window So enchanting and inviting in the scheme that she had laid. The lonely prophet waves to Belladonna from the window In the hope that she will notice and may wish to know his name But cruel Belladonna turns to face the waiting sunrise With its promise of excitement thinking little of the game. Shine your lantern brightly Do not heed the darkness lightly We must always talk politely In the presence of the night. Deadly nightshade, hear me calling Shadows of the evening falling down. The quiet prophet gathers up his papers for the fire He alone will read the message in the words that he has burned Belladonna tries the door to find the room is empty And she coldly rakes the ashes for the love that she has spurned. Shine your lantern brightly Do not heed the darkness lightly We must always talk politely In the presence of the night. Deadly nightshade, hear me calling Shadows of the evening falling down. Deadly nightshade, hear me calling Shadows of the evening falling down. |

The wise man came in deep disguise All the way from Mexico We sat in circles on the ground And listened to his words of wisdom He spoke of unclimbed mountain ranges And plains that stretched beyond the point of no return (no return). We talked in terms of solitude And parted with respect Realising that the world held a place for us both Somewhere, somewhere, somewhere, somewhere. |
