(Wetton/Downes)
They decorated all the generals Who fought the wars behind the lines They had forgotten all the soldiers The brandy put them way behind the times Insanity has found its way to TV screens Vision seems impossible to me They fight {they fight} for king {for king} and country I never would have thought this in my {chorus} Wildest dreams Wildest dreams Wildest dreams Wildest dreams The evening comes, we sit and watch the VJs Clips and rushes come from who knows where From Washington across to California With fighting breaking out in Leicester Square We see the soldiers moving on to victory And children trampled under marching feet They fight {they fight} for king {for king} and country How many millions will they put to sleep? {chorus} Wildest dreams Wildest dreams Wildest dreams Wildest dreams Fly away... No, not in this world No, not in the next No, not in my wildest dreams They recommended euthanasia For non-conformists anywhere Some men's dreams for others turn to nightmares This never would have happened in my {chorus} Fly away... No, not in this world No, not in the next No, not in my wildest dreams... |

When I ride the hounds of hell
Twist my foot, I nearly fell I was lucky I was alive One look back, I could have died I was the sole survivor Sole survivor, sole survivor Solitary fire When I saw it I was amazed One time glory right in my gaze I saw the sorry, I saw the joy Light in the darkness none could destroy And from the wreckage I will arise Cast the ashes back in their eyes See the fire I will defend Just keep on burning right to the end I'll be the sole survivor Sole survivor |

Don't Cry
by Asia Hard times you had before you I knew when I first saw you You girl you’ve always been mistreated, cheated So leave it all behind you It took so long to find you I know that we can last forever, ever and more, more, oh Don’t Cry now that I’ve found you Don’ Cry take a look around you Don’t Cry it took so long to find you Do what you want, but little darling please Don’t Dry I knew I’d never doubt it I was so sure about it Don’t think of all that’s been before I’ll hear you when you’re calling I’ll catch you when you’re falling Don’t worry I will always be there, like never before, or, oh |

I heard you on the radio
Some other time From some forgotten studio Way down the line So long, so long I've waited now To hear you again That song, that song will still remain Become an old friend And now, the tears are in my eyes The sound you can't disguise The truth comes back from lies And all I want to hear Voice of America, ooh, America Voice of America, ooh, America And then you came in stereo Calling to me And so I watch the videos Across the T.V. That sound, still ringing in my ears From a decade ago Around, around my head, the sound from my radio I thought, that after all these years The tears, the growing fears That I would never hear Never again Voice of America, ooh, America Voice of America, ooh, America |

Fate looks certain but there's nothing guaranteed
Want for nothing, but is nothing what you need? Always pushing but you're never satisfied I did believe you 'til I found out that you lied Chorus: Time and time again Time and time again again For what I give you I get nothing in return Can't forgive you watching all your bridges burn All day long I sat and watched you do it wrong Have to say that's how you did it all along Chorus But others wouldn't see things you could only see And someone showed you, then why was it always me You knew the limit you were always out of bounds How could I trust you when I caught you messing 'round Chorus |

I saw you standing hand in hand
But now you come to me the solitary man And I know what it is that made us live Such ordinary lives The where to go, the who to see No one could sympathize The smile has left your eyes The smile has left your eyes And I've become a rolling stone I don't know where to go Or what to call my own But I can see that black horizon Looming ever close to view It's over now, it's not my fault See how this feels for you The smile has left your eyes The smile has left your eyes I never thought I'd see you Standing there with him So don't come crawlin' back to me I saw you standing hand in hand But now you come to me the solitary man And I know what it is that made us live Such ordinary lives The where to go, the who to see No one could sympathize The smile has left your eyes Now it's too late you realized Now there's no one can sympathize Now that the smile has left your eyes Now it's too late you realized Now there's no one can sympathize Now it's too late you realized Now that the smile has left your eyes The smile has left your eyes |

Only Time Will Tell
by Asia You're leaving now It's in your eyes There's no disguising it It really comes as no surprise To find that you planned it all along I see it now Becomes so clear Your insincerity And me all starry-eyed You'd think that I would have known by now Now, sure as the sun will cross the sky The lie is over Lost, like the tears that used to tide me over CHORUS: Only time will tell One thing is sure That time will tell Only time will tell If you were wrong The brightest ring around the moon Will darken when I die Now sure as the sun will cross the sky The lying's over Gone, like the tears that used to tide me over You're leaving now It's in your eyes There's no disguising it It really comes as no surprise To find that you planned it all along Only time will tell I see it now, become so clear Only time will tell Your insincerity And me all starry-eyed You'd think that I would have known by now Now, sure as the sun will cross the sky The lie is over Lost, like the tears that used to tide me over Only time will tell You're on your own inside your room Only time will tell You're claiming victory You were just using me And there is no one you can use now Only time will tell One thing is sure... |

The sun was shining
The sky was crying It just tore apart And down came the rain And I was soaking Yeah I was freezing But I was feeling No kind of pain Come a fireball I held it in my hand You see before you A man who's known greatness I had a vision A revelation I took a look inside of me And I am a sensation Days like these I feel like I can change the world Days like these I feel like I can change the world It's either easy Or it's impossible And if you ain't got it You ain't never gonna get it But once you find it You gotta grab it Reach down your own throat And yank it to the surface That may be brutal May be gory But whatever else it is It's my story And I believe it Yeah, I can see it I sing it out, shout it out Gimme death or glory Days like these I feel like I can change the world Days like these I feel like I can change the world Days like these, days like these I think I'll move a mountain or two Days like these, days like these Anything you want you know I'll get it for you Days like these I feel like I can change the world The sun was shining I was crying I saw a thousand people Singing in the rain And I was thinking About the Indians And how they say true wisdom Only comes from pain Come a rumbling Humbling feeling Like things will never Ever be the same But what doesn't kill you Only makes you stronger Today I'm strong enough And anyway, I love the rain Days like these I feel like I can change the world Days like these I feel like I can change the world |

You walk tall, got your heads in the clouds
You talk soft, but you're thinking aloud And you know, exactly what you want You box shy, you're hard to get You got the face that I can't forget And I know, I know the heat goes on I know that the heat goes on I know that the heat goes on You play tight, you're nobody's fool Not cold, but I know that you're cool Look at you, I know the heat goes on Now tell me, with your hand on your heart That you knew, you were right from the start And you know, you knew it all along You know that the heat goes on You know that the heat goes on |

Go
by Asia Dig for victory, go for gold I don't wanna die before I get old And I wonder where I'm going to There's some way out, there's some way through But I'm lost, I'm lost, I'm down again My direction is changing, which way, Which way can I go... Get up and go You start me up, you slow me down No one can deny you get around When you're hot, you're cold, you're in between Asking myself what does it mean? And I walk that tightrope, you should know I'm losing my balance, maybe, Maybe I should go... Get up and go Face to face in sympathy But now you turn your back on me Turn a card and win, but you may lose Fate only has that right to choose If you're right, leave me here, I'll die alone You've got the time, you've just got time You got the time just go... Get up and go Go Just go... |

Heat Of The Moment
by Asia I never meant to be so bad to you One thing I said that I would never do One look from you and I would fall from grace And that would wipe this smile right from my face Do you remember when we used to dance And incidence arose from circumstance One thing lead to another we were young And we would scream together songs unsung It was the heat of the moment Telling me what your heart meant Heat of the moment shone in your eyes And now you find yourself in 82 The disco hotspots hold no charm for you You can't concern yourself with bigger things You catch the pearl and ride the dragon's wings And when your looks are gone and you're alone How many nights you sit beside the phone What were the things you wanted for yourself Teenage ambition you remember well |

What on earth are you doing here, in the
western world? Another situation yeah you're a different girl You have lived your life dreaming you were someone else Succeeding's believing in yourself Open your eyes And see the world that stands before you now Open your eyes And see the world that stands in front of you You have spent your days trying for something new You have looked at magazine girls, wishing that they were you Do you see in photographs an angel that once was you? Does she tell you stories that are true? Open your eyes And see the world that stands before you now Open your eyes And see the world that stands in front of you If I could stand with you right now and speak my mind I would tell you no lies I would shoot straight between the eyes You have stared a thousand times, right into the lens Have you ever thought just once, does it all make sense? Your beauty is eternal so don't just pretend Got to wake up girl, or it's the end... |
