The sirens are screaming and the fires are howling,
way down in the valley tonight. There's a man in the shadows with a gun in his eye, and a blade shining oh so bright. There's evil in the air and there's thunder in sky, and A killer's on the bloodshot streets. Oh and down in the tunnel where the deadly are rising, Oh I swear I saw a young boy down in the gutter, He was starting to foam in the heat. Oh baby you're the only thing in this whole world, that's pure and good and right. And wherever you are and wherever you go, there's always gonna be some light. But I gotta get out, I gotta break it out now, Before the final crack of dawn. So we gotta make the most of our one night together. When it's over you know, We'll both be so alone. Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone when the morning comes. When the night is over Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone gone gone. Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone when the morning comes. But when the day is done and the sun goes down, and the moonlights shining through, Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven, I'll come crawling on back to you. I'm gonna hit the highway like a battering ram, on a silver black phantom bike. When the metal is hot and the engine is hungry, and we're all about to see the light. Nothing ever grows in this rotting old hole. Everything is stunted and lost. And nothing really rocks And nothing really rolls And nothing's ever worth the cost. And I know that I'm damned if I never get out, And maybe I'm damned if I do, But with every other beat I've got left in my heart, You know I'd rather be damned with you. If I gotta be damned you know I wanns be damned, dancing through the night with you. If I gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned. Gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned. If I gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned, Dancing through the night Dancing through the night Dancing through the night with you. Oh baby you're the only thing in this whole world, that's pure and good and right. And wherever you are and wherever you go, there's always gonna be some light. But I gotta get out, I gotta break it out now, Before the final crack of dawn. So we gotta make the most of our one night together. When it's over you know, We'll both be so alone. Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone when the morning comes. When the night is over Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone gone gone. Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone when the morning comes. But when the day is done and the sun goes down, and the moonlights shining through, Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven, I'll come crawling on back to you. I can see myself tearing up the road, Faster than any other boy has ever gone. And my skin is raw but my soul is ripe. No-one's gonna stop me now, I gotta make my escape. But I can't stop thinking of you, and I never see the sudden curve until it's way too late. I never see the sudden curve 'till it's way too late. Then I'm dying at the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun. Torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike. And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell. And the last thing I see is my heart, Still beating, Breaking out of my body, And flying away, Like a bat out of hell. Then I'm dying at the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun. Torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike. And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell. And the last thing I see is my heart. Still beating, still beating, Breaking out of my body and flying away, Like a bat out of hell. Like a bat out of hell. Like a bat out of hell. Oh like a bat out of hell! Oh like a bat out of hell! Like a bat out of hell! |

I don't want to let another minute get by
They're slipping through our fingers, but we're ready to fly The night'll be our cover and we'll huddle below We got the music in our bodies and the radio And when the morning arrives it'll all be gone Disappearing in (to) the crack of dawn We better make our move now before the sun is awake It's time to put up or shut up and to pick up the pace And I don't want to let another minute get by Love is going to get us while the moon is in the sky We may be running out of night, but never running out of steam We're acting on a hunch, and we'll be acting out a dream There really isn't any time to lose They're going to catch us if we wait until it gets too light You're such a pretty boy Let me show you what to do, and you'll do it But you gotta move faster Faster than the speed of night Faster than the speed of night Faster than the speed of night It's all we ever wanted And all we'll ever need And it's slipping through our fingers Faster than the speed of night Faster than the speed of night Faster than the speed of night It's all we ever wanted And all we'll ever need And it's slipping through our fingers Faster than the speed of night Faster than the speed of night Faster than the speed of night Faster than the speed of night Faster than the speed of night Let me show you how to drive me crazy Let me show you how to make me feel so good Let me show you how to take me to the edge of the stars and then back again You've gotta show me how to drive you crazy You've gotta show me all the things you want to happen to you We've gotta tell each other everything we always wanted someone to do I don't want to push you now and I don't want to rush We're getting closer every second now, but close is not enough The night'll be our cover and we'll huddle below We got the music in our fingers and the radio There really isn't any time to lose We're going to lose it if we wait until it gets too light You're such a pretty boy Let me show you what to do, and you'll do it But you gotta move faster Faster than the speed of night Faster than the speed of night Faster than the speed of night It's all we ever wanted And all we'll ever need And it's slipping through our fingers Faster than the speed of night Faster than the speed of night Faster than the speed of night It's all we ever wanted And all we'll ever need And it's slipping through our fingers Faster than the speed of night Faster than the speed of night Faster than the speed of night Faster than the speed of night Faster than the speed of night |

(spoken)
BOY: On a hot summer night, would you offer your throat to the wolf with the red roses? GIRL: Will he offer me his mouth? BOY: Yes. GIRL: Will he offer me his teeth? BOY: Yes. GIRL: Will he offer me his jaws? BOY: Yes. GIRL: Will he offer me his hunger? BOY: Yes. GIRL: Again, will he offer me his hunger? BOY: Yes! GIRL: And does he love me? BOY: Yes. GIRL: Yes. BOY: On a hot summer night, would you offer your throat to the wolf with the red roses? GIRL: Yes. BOY: I bet you say that to all the boys! (sung) It was a hot summer night and the beach was burning. There was fog crawling over the sand. When I listen to your heart I hear the whole world turning. I see the shooting stars falling through your trembling hands. You were licking your lips and your lipstick shining. I was dying just to ask for a taste. We were lying together in a silver lining by the the light of the moon. You know there's not another moment Not another moment Not another moment to waste. You hold me so close that my knees grow weak. But my soul is flying high above the ground. I'm trying to speak but no matter what I do I just can't seem to make any sound. And then you took the words right out of my mouth. Oh it must have been while you were kissing me. You took the words right out of my mouth. And I swear it's true, I was just about to say I love you. And then you took the words right out of my mouth. Oh it must have been while you were kissing me. You took the words right out of my mouth. And I swear it's true, I was just about to say I love you. Now my body is shaking like a wave on the water And I guess that I'm beginning to grin. Oh we're finally alone and we can do what we want to. The night is young And Ain't no-one gonna know where you No-one gonna know where you No-one's gonna know where you've been. You were licking your lips and your lipstick shining. I was dying just to ask for a taste. We were lying together in a silver lining by the the light of the moon. You know there's not another moment Not another moment Not another moment to waste. And then you took the words right out of my mouth. Oh it must have been while you were kissing me. You took the words right out of my mouth. And I swear it's true, I was just about to say I love you. And then you took the words right out of my mouth. Oh it must have been while you were kissing me. You took the words right out of my mouth. And I swear it's true, I was just about to say I love you. |

Some one told me long ago
There's a calm before the storm I know, and it's been coming for sometime When it's over so they say It'l bring a sunny day I know, shining down like water I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain Coming down on a sunny day Yesterday and days before Sun is cold and rain is hot I know, been that way for all my time Till forever on it goes Fill the circle fast and slow I know, an it can't stop my wonder I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain Coming down on a sunny day I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain Coming down on a sunny day Have you ever seen the rain |

I've been trying for hours just to think of what exactly to say
I thought i'd leave you with a letter or firey speech Like when an actor makes an exit at the end of a play And i've been dying for hours trying to fill up all the holes with some sense I'd like to know how you faded and you threw it away I'd like to give you all the reasons and what everything meant Well i could tell you good-bye or maybe see you around With just a touch of a sarcastic thanks We started out with a bang and at the top of the world Now the guns are exhausted and the bullets are blanks And everything's blank Chorus: If i could find the words then i would write it all down If i could only find a voice i would speak Oh it's there in my eyes so can't you see me tonight C'mon and look at me and read 'em and weep Chorus I've been whispering softly, trying to build a cry up to a scream We let the past slip away, and put the future on hold Now the present is nothing but a hollowed out dream And i've been dying for hours trying to fill up all the holes with some sense I'd like to know why you faded and you threw it away I'd like to give you all the reasons and what everything meant Well i could tell you good-bye or maybe see you around With just a touch of a sarcastic thanks But now the rooms are all empty, the candles are dark The guns are exhausted and the bullets are blanks, and everything's blank Chorus It's there in my eyes and coming straight from my heart It's running silent and angry and deep It's there in my eyes and it's all i can say, c'mon and read 'em and weep Read 'em and weep - for all the hours we'll be spe |

TURN AROUND
Every now and then I get a little bit lonely and you're never coming round. TURN AROUND Every now and then I get a little bit tired of list ning to the sound of my tears. TURN AROUND Every now and then I get a little bit nervous that the best of all the years have gone by. TURN AROUND Every now and then I get a little bit terrified and then I see the look in your eyes. TURN AROUND, BRIGHT EYES Every now and then I fall apart. TURN AROUND, BRIGHT EYES Every now and then I fall apart. TURN AROUND Every now and then I get a little bit restless and I dream of something wild. TURN AROUND Every now and then I get a little bit helpless and I'm lying like a child in your arms. TURN AROUND Every now and then I get a little bit angry and I know I've got to get out and cry. TURN AROUND Every now and then I get a little bit terrified but then I see the look in your eyes. TURN AROUND, BRIGHT EYES Every now and then I fall apart. TURN AROUND, BRIGHT EYES Every now and then I fall apart. And I need you now tonight and I need you more than ever and if you only hold me tight we'll be holding on forever. And we'll only be making it right 'cause we'll never be wrong. Together we can take it to the end of the line. Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time. I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark. We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks. I really need you tonight, forever's gonna start tonight, forever's gonna start tonight. Once upon a time I was falling in love but now I'm only falling apart. There's nothing I can do, a total eclipse of the heart. Once upon a time there was light in my life but now there's only love in the dark. Nothing I can say, a total eclipse of the heart. TURN AROUND, BRIGHT EYES TURN AROUND, BRIGHT EYES TURN AROUND Every now and then I know you'll never be the boy you always wanted to be. TURN AROUND But every now and then I know you'll always be the only boy who wanted me the way that I am. TURN AROUND Every now and then I know there's no one in the universe as magical and wondrous as you. TURN AROUND Every now and then I know there's nothing any better, there's nothing that I just wouldn't do. TURN AROUND, BRIGHT EYES Every now and then I fall apart. TURN AROUND, BRIGHT EYES Every now and then I fall apart. And I need you now tonight... Once upon a time I was... A total eclipse of the heart, a total eclipse of the heart. Turn around, bright eyes, Turn around, bright eyes, turn around. |

Baby we can talk all night
But that ain't getting us nowhere I told you everything i possibly can There's nothing left inside of here And maybe you can cry all night But that'll never change the way that i feel The snow is really piling up outside I wish you wouldn't make me leave here I poured it on and i poured it out I tried to show you just how much i care I'm tired of words and i'm too hoarse to shout But you've been cold to me so long I'm crying icicles instead of tears And all i can do is keep on telling you I want you I need you But -- there ain't no way i'm ever gonna love you Now don't be sad 'cause two out of three ain't bad Now don't be sad 'cause two out of three ain't bad You'll never find your gold on a sandy beach You'll never drill for oil on a city street I know you're looking for a ruby in a mountain of rocks But there ain't no coupe de ville hiding at the bottom of a cracker jack box I can't lie I can't tell you that i'm something i'm not No matter how i try I'll never be able To give you something Something that i just haven't got There's only one girl that i will ever love And that was so many years ago And though i know i'll never get her out of my heart She never loved me back Ooh i know I remember how she left me on a stormy night She kissed me and got out of our bed And though i pleaded and i begged her not to walk out that door She packed her bags and turned right away And she kept on telling me She kept on telling me She kept on telling me I want you I need you-aca |

Holding Out For A Hero Where have all the good men gone And where are all the gods? Where's the street-wise Hercules To fight the rising odds? Isn't there a white knight upon a fiery steed? Late at night toss and turn and dream of what I need I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night He's gotta be strong And he's gotta be fast And he's gotta be fresh from the fight I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero 'til the morning light He's gotta be sure And it's gotta be soon And he's gotta be larger than life(larger than life) Somewhere after midnight In my wildest fantasy Somewhere just beyond my reach There's someone reaching back for me Racing on the thunder and rising with the heat It's gonna take a superman to sweep me off my feet Up where the mountains meet the heavens above Out where the lightning splits the sea I would swear that there's someone somewhere Watching me Through the wind and the chill and the rain And the storm and the flood I can feel his approach Like the fire in my blood I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero 'til the morning light He's gotta be sure And it's gotta be soon And he's gotta be larger than life he's gotta be strong and he's gotta be fast and gotta be fresh from the fight I need a hero

If You Were A Woman (And I Was a Man)
From the CD Secret Dreams and Forbidden Fire Written by Desmond Child How's it feel to be a woman How's it feel to be a man Are we really that different Tell me where you stand I look at you, you look away Why do you say we're night and day I'd like to try another way Oh baby for just one day If you were a woman and I was a man Would it be so hard to understand That a heart to heart and we do what we can If you were a woman and I was a man If you were a woman and I was a man How's it feel to be the hunter How's it feel to be the prey Is there really a reason For this game we play I look at you, you look away Why do you say we're night and day I'd like to try another way Oh darling, just one day If you were a woman and I was a man Would it be so hard to understand That a heart to heart and we do what we can If you were a woman and I was a man If you were a woman and I was a man INSTRUMENTAL Hey, we're just two people trying to love Oh but how, how can we love With this wall between us, holding us back If you were a woman and I was a man Would it be so hard to understand That a heart to heart and we do what we can If you were a woman and I was a man If you were a woman and I was a man 1985 April Music and Desmobile Music |

I could start dreaming but it never ends
As long as you're gone we may as well pretend I've been dreaming And that's straight from the heart You said it's easy but who's to say That we'd be able to keep it this way But it's easier Coming straight from the heart Give it to me straight from the heart Tell me we could make another start You know i'll never go As long as i know It's coming straight from the heart I'll see you on the street some other time But all our words will just fall out of line While we're dreaming Straight from the heart Give it to me straight from the heart Tell me we could make another start You know i'll never go As long as i know It's coming straight from the heart Give it to me straight from the heart Tell me we could make another start You know i'll never go As long as lknow It's coming straight from the heart Give it to me straight from the heart Tell me we could make another start You know i'll never go As long as i know It's coming straight from the heart You know i'll never go As long as i know It's coming straight from the heart You know i'll never go As long as i know It's coming straight from the heart |

(there were times we lost it all) Girl: When the sky is falling and you're looking 'round for somewhere to hide Did you ever call out to someone? Did you ever call out to me? I've never been gone, I've been right here by your side There ain't nothin' but clouds There ain't nothin' but clouds in your eyes Why don't you believe it when you finally found the truth?

Would you follow your secret dreams and forbidden fire? Let's just peel out of this town Both: It's been nothing but dreams It's been nothing but dreams until now Boy: You're never gonna see it Both: You got your head stuck in the sand Boy: It's the land of the free and easy streets Girl: It's the home of the damned Boy: You're never gonna see it Both: You better open up your eyes Girl: You're the only one who's left Both: Who's gonna believe all your lies Boy: I can't explain it away It doesn't make any sense Both: To know what it's like I guess you gotta go through it I guess you gotta go through it I guess you gotta go through it It doesn't matter baby Girl: Loving you's a dirty job (it's a dirty job... but we can make it) But somebody's gotta do it Both: There were times when our bodies glistened There were times that we can't stop missing Boy: There were times that we'd lay in bed and listen To the pounding, pounding chorus of our desperate hearts Both: Nothing could have torn us apart There were times we had it all There were times we had it all Girl: There were times when we fought like tigers There were times we were damn good liars Boy: There were times we extinguished every fire Both: That was burning, burning, burning, up each other alive Boy: From the heavens all down to the dives Both: There were times we lost it all There were times we lost it all....

Heaven can wait,
And a band of Angels wrapped up in my heart, Will take me through the lonely night, Through the cold of the day. And I know, I know, Heaven can wait, And all the gods come down here just to sing for me, And the melody's gonna make me fly, Without pain, without fear. Give me all of your dreams, And let me go alone on your way. Give me all of your prayers to sing, And I'll turn the night into the skylight of day. I got a taste of paradise, I'm never gonna let it slip away. I got a taste of paradise, It's all I really need to make me stay Just like a child again. Heaven can wait. And all I've got is time until the end of time. I won't look back. I won't look back. Let the altars shine. And I know that I've been released, But I don't know to where, And nobody's gonna tell me now, And I don't really care. No, no, no. I got a taste of paradise. That's all I really need to make me stay. I got a taste of paradise. If I had it any sooner you know You know I never would have run away from my home. Heaven can wait. And all I've got is time until the end of time. I won't look back. I won't look back. Let the altars shine. Heaven can wait. Heaven can wait. I won't look back. Let the altars shine. Let the altars shine. |
