Hit the message, I can hear you calling
No one's going anywhere tonight We conceived a modern generation It was free but now we pay the price We're the victims of our own creation Chasing rainbows that are painted black or white Watch the struggle of our temptation Instincts barely keeping us alive Back to the rhythm that we all came from Voices of Babylon, streets of London Back to the people that we know so well Space and time removed too soon to tell Just a product of imagination Patiently we wait for our turn to come A small collection of the population By the time our number's up, we could be gone Back to the rhythm that we all came from Voices of Babylon, streets of London Back to the people that we know so well Space and time removed too soon to tell Back to the rhythm that we all came from Voices of Babylon, streets of London Back to the people that we know so well Space and time removed too soon to tell Back to the rhythm that we all came from Voices of Babylon, streets of London-town |

Think I might get lucky tonight
Let my hair down get a little crazy, yeah My reflection's doing alright It don't take nothing to introduce suggestion Everybody's got one thing on their mind A set of wheels and a cranked up radio In this town there might be nowhere to hide In this town there might be nowhere to go but [Chorus] On my left, to my right This is my paradise You can call it what you like, I know This is my paradise I might get lucky again I got a deal I know won't break me yeah If I can afford what money can't buy There's nothing better than a small town lady I'm no different to the boy next door A good time's the same for everyone I don't need another chance to be sure Since the day I was born I've always felt secure 'cos [Chorus] Reputation's got a price of its own But not too many people want to pay for it Everybody needs a place to come from Everybody needs a place where they belong Everybody, this is my paradise |

You're taking this hard - and I still don't know
If we've got a price - I'll let you go I don't wanna be just a part of your life I can't complain if I'm not sure I'll only remain if you're still pure I'm not gonna be just a part of your life You know I won't share you with another man So don't expect me to try and understand I don't wanna be just a part of your life [Chorus] There's another choice There's another dream There's another place Another reason for living There's another face There's another mind There's another soul Another heart I could find I don't wanna be just a part of your life I don't wanna know what might be wrong Start looking for something that might be gone I'm not gonna be just a part of your life Making up for lost time won't ease the pain Or start looking for something - just to ease the strain I don't wanna be just a part of your life [Chorus] I don't want a friend just to turn to I don't need a hand that can only pull me through I'm not gonna be just a part of your life I don't wanna be just a part of your life |

I wonder how I'd feel
If we made love together I wonder how I'd feel Every time we trembled In each others arms I wonder how I'd feel If we could spend this night together I wonder how I'd feel With your body held against me All through the night [Chorus] Oh-oh-oh Shelter me Oh-oh-oh I need you to shelter me I wonder how I'd feel If our emotions came together I wonder how I'd feel If the future was forever And not just tonight [Chorus] This time it's not so easy to take A broken heart can't be replaced Don't wanna play a waiting game From the moment we part I'll be counting the days I wonder how I'd feel If we made love together I wonder how I'd feel Every time we trembled In each others arms |

Staying up all night, this could be a party
I've got some friends outside, looking for a good time You better head my way, this is where it's starting No rules, no laws, tonight you're gonna stay [Chorus] Hey girl hold me tight, the night ain't over Hey girl hit that light- the night ain't over I'm staying up all night, this could be a showdown I've got this thing inside, telling me don't run and hide And there's so many roads, only you can go down Don't close, your eyes, there just might be another way [Chorus] Ooh I might be losing my soul But life's only fun when it's dangerous And I don't wanna be told I won't play safe and start growing old It's five in the morning And I can feel the beads of sweat Running down the back of my neck It's so good to be with you again Oh-oh-oh Someday, wait and see This will be just a memory And I'll look back with no regrets Good times like this I can't forget ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By JOHN SPINKS <i>Lyrics © NETTWERK ONE MUSIC OBO JOHN SPINKS MUSIC</i> |

This ain't working out
It's not worth the time I spent on it When I've been next to you It's not the way you want it And all I wanna do Is get away and as far away from it There's no point 'cos I'm not winning There's no point going back to the beginning There's no point to keep on waiting There's no point in talking it over There's no point in getting any closer If it was up to you We'd go around in circles forever There's nothing left to do I go around, around in you I've tried to see it through All I've seen is the stormy weather There's no point in still pretending There's no point 'cos this is never ending There's no point in keep on trying There's no point to carry on lying There's no point acting like children There's no point 'cos this time I'm gone There's no point in talking it over There's no point in getting any close There's no point in still pretending There's no point 'cos this is never ending There's no point in keep on trying There's no point to carry on lying There's no point in talking it over There's no point in getting any closer There's no point 'cos I'm not winning There's no point going back to the beginning There's no point in hesitating There's no point tonight There's no point at all |

She wakes me up in the middle of the night
When I'm rolling over, rolling over She keeps on asking is there something on my mind, I know She's getting close just a little too closer, and yet Secrets are hard form me to hide 'Cos I never know what she might find Telling her lies Taken by surprise, taken by surprise yeah She calls me up every minute of the day It's like she's checking me over, always over my should and then We talk and talk until there's nothing left to say But she won't leave me alone every night She never says what's on her mind And the way it looks, well I know she ain't blind Telling her lies Taken by surprise, taken by surprise yeah You know this game is the same All the world over But no one laughs when they're taking the blame Over your should, taken by surprise Can't close my eyes in case I talk in my sleep Ooh I gotta lotta secrets that I know I wanna keep yeah And she might even know what's going on And it's all just an act when she says nothing's wrong Like a disguise Taken by surprise, taken by surprise |

Never been afraid to learn, at the speed I've been living
Never tried to run away, when my luck's been sinking Looking back doesn't seem that long I was too blind to see what was going on [Chorus] Tried to reach out and touch you but you were gone, Oh I Sometimes I wonder If I was wrong, so wrong Never been afraid to say, anything I been thinking Never tried to run away, even from the beginning Looking back doesn't seem that long The way I feel now don't care if I carry on [Chorus] Tried to reach out, tried to touch you Tried to reach out, tried to touch you |

Hey you, what's your problem, I been mystified
You might come from a different city, your body talks just like mine Some things get misunderstood, and we can't stop the fight But there's one thing that we don't disagree on putting right [Chorus] Makin' up, makin' up by makin' love Makin' up, makin' up by makin' love Hey I don't need to be teased, I'm no suicide You might think I'm on the edge, just about to dive Don't look back or turn around, when you say you've gone for sure 'Cos every night when talk gets cheap, you still come back for more [Chorus] Hey little dream maker, you can stick the cream I've abused so many times, I don't believe in me It's the best if I suggest, and you just try to please There's one thing we both agree, can end hostility |

Inside your skin, there's a girl I want to know
Inside your skin, you could let my feelings grow Where do I begin, to tell you that I want you so [Chorus] Doesn't matter what color you are Doesn't matter if you're so far away Inside your arms, I would always feel secure Inside your arms, I would always be so sure Tearing us apart, would only make me want you more [Chorus] Think about a world, free of pain Think about a world, where nothing changed Always the same Inside your heart, no one's ever been before Inside your heart, someone who remained so pure Knowing where to stop or to start Telling you I want you more |
