Micky Lee Soule

I search for her in the dead of night
A silhouette lit by candle light
In a whispered word she is gone
Familiar stranger without a name
In a darkened room they all look the same
Like the sand of time she slips away so far away
In the mirror you can see her face
An angel dressed in the blackest lace
A sip of wine and the game can begin
Just an image lost in fantasy
Then you touch her and you can't break free
Till you see your fate written there in her eyes
Oh Ariel,
Lost in a distant dream, take me home
Ariel

I know the key to secrets never told, they're hidden in your soul
Feelings you hide never wanting me to find they've always been mine
Release all the madness within let it all begin
Now you'll see, the dark side of me
In our black masquerade
Let the moonlight surround you
The game that we play is
The black masquerade
The full moon unmasks the stranger in us all
And the cruel world takes its toll
The shadow is cast on who you used to be
Let me set you free
Come now, come take my hand, then you'll understand
We'll go to that forbidden land
Of our black masquerade
Let the darkness surround you
The game that we play is the black masquerade
Release all the madness within, let it all begin
We'll go to that forbidden land
Come let me take you there
Let the moonlight surround you
Don't be afraid, it's the black masquerade

She came from across the water
A devil's daughter was in disguise
I crid for mercy - she bound and chained me
and then she played me, I was mesmerized
When she gave me blood red roses
They were wrapped in razor thorns
She was sly in her temptation
Then she left me on my own
Sutch a cold hearted woman
She promised passion everlasting
And now I'm haunted by her name
I gave up all that I ever cared for
Oh if I only had my yesterdays again
I've been blinded, now I'm broken
Sometimes I can hear her song
No man's grass was ever greener
Now I find that I don't belong
With a cold hearted woman
She touched my world and I was shaken
But she was fakin,I never knew
These days are colder and there's no shoulder
I'm just the shell fo the man I was before
If there's somewhere I can run to
Till I kill the pain inside
I've been walking now for hours
Can't forget her, the Lord knows I've tried
Cause she's a cold, cold hearted woman

Mysteries of ages told, stories now will unfold
Tales of mystic days of old are hidden in these walls
Hear the witches play their tunes, sing their songs to the moon
As they play the night will move, in the hall of the mountain king
Wild child so innocent
You took that away
Thoughts of wonder and surprise hide themselves in your eyes
As the smoke begins to rise inside the mountain halls
Ancient tales of witches love, answers lie through that door
All you'd ever want and more, is calling for you now
Through darkend corridors
Try but you cannot break free
You took her innocence
Now you will answer to me
I am the mountain king
Are you not afraid? I am the mountain king
Listen to the bells
In a midnight fantasy, more than any eye can see
Hear them laughing crazily, It's out of control
Mysteries of ages told, stories now will unfold
Tales of mystic days of old are hidden in these walls
Through darkend corridors
Run but you cannot escape
You took her innocence
And for this crime you must pay
I am the mountain king, are you not afraid?
I am the mountain king

Justify, speak the lies, close your eyes
As we make love
Touch my skin, let the fun begin, once again
I hear your cries, rise oh rise
Feel the nails, tell tales trails across my spine
Beautiful
Silken kiss, on a night like this, who would miss
Our final hour
Closer still, close your eyes, see my world, it's animal
Insatiable
Velvet glove, unrequited love, find the words
And make them rhyme
One last dance, hypnotizing trance, a knowing glance
I love you
Closer still, lose your will, see my world, it's criminal
Insatiable
Things we hide, keep them out of signt, heard it said
It's unbearable
Feel my pain, taste my shame, who's to blame
Inexcusable

You say you want your freedom
It all gets a bit out of hand
Caught in the ocean as I'm watching you breathe
We all believe what we wanted to belive
That's the silence of love
You say all you want is money
You scream for a little bit more
Caught in a landslide as we're stumbling on
Who'd say we're right but who would say we're wrong
Silence of love
You say you need someone to hold you
You say that you're feeling afraid
I know the worst part of being alone
Is a book full of nombers with no one to phone
That's the silence of love

Can't say something if the words ain't there
What you trying to do
Money can't buy me out of trouble I'm in
I've been messing with the likes of you
Been so long since I left my home
Looks like I lost my way
Tried so hard just to make it work
You just turn around and walk away
Something's got to give, I ain't gonna leave
Time to dig down deep
If you wanna get out of this town alive
You gotta stand and fight
So infuriating the way you twist my words
I know you got your problems, it seems every day
That they're getting much worse
I hear you screaming for attention
You say your life's a mess
Something else to cry about
Just get on with it
Something's got to give, I ain't gonna leave
Time to dig down deep
If you wanna get out of this town alive
You gotta stand and fight

See the stars come fallin' down the sky
Gently passing, they kiss your tear drops dry
See the wind come, softly blow
Your hair from your face
And the rain comes falling down
In its crazy way
Still I'm sad

For myself my tears just fall in the dust
As I search in the night and find they're lost
See the wind come gently blow
Time into my heart
And the rain comes falling down
While we're apart
Still I'm sad

Version 2 (Yardbirds' version?)

See the stars come joining down from the skies
Gently passing they kiss your tears when you cry
See the wind of summer blow your hair upon your head
See the rain, the falling rain, it's rain
Still I'm sad

Oh my flowers, my tears are falling two days
They are driving the night profound, they are lost
Flower, flower the wind is blowing
Time into my heart
When the wind blows hard, we are apart
Still I'm sad

Oh, oh, oh, oh, Still I'm sad
Oh, oh, oh, oh, How I'm sad

Well I'm moving faster close to the edge
As I smoka a pack of strong cigarettes
When my fears run dry, you won't see me cry
Coz I know I got it coming
We touched the sun and went on our way
And we asked the stars to come out to play
But you said good night when they lost their light
And my world stopped spinning `round
What are we fighting for
Dontcha know that no one wins
What are we fighting for
Just give up and I'll give in
It's too late for tears
When the things you need are things you don't want
And you take the needle right to the point
I'd be heaven bound, but you shoot me down
Leave me broke and bleeding on the killing floor

With a rebel mind and a gypsy heart
No place could ever be home
Drawn like a wolf to the moon it calls to my soul
Ain't got no woman, they just tie me down
Freedom is my only friend
I get a feeling destiny lies 'round the bend
One for the road
Slave to the highway
King of the road
Chasing the sun as it sets in the sky
Swear that I'll catch it someday
Lights of the city behind are fadingg away
Makin' my way through the names on the map
No point in feeling alone
As long as I ride the open road I'll always have a home
One for the road
Slave to the highway
King of the road
My future is calling a cry in the wind
Leading me out of my past
Got no destination but know that I'm getting there fast
Crossed many miles got so many to go
Each one calling my name
Won't settle down and you know I'll never be tamed
One for the road
Slave to the highway
King of the road

Day after day I keep waking up
To find that you're slipping away
Night after night
I can't fight the emptiness inside
Nothing I can say
Now I know you're turning me away
You're wearing a disguise
You don't have to hide cause
The truth is in your eyes tonight

I don't want to live a lie
But I don't want to say goodbye
And I can't let you go even though it's over
I just can't let you go
Though your love is growing colder

One look in my eyes and you'd realize
That you got my heart in your hands
Won't you let me know something more
Where did we go wrong?

I don't want to fight
All I want to do is try to understand
I'm reaching out for you babe
What can I do
I've been holding on so long
I don't want to live a lie
But I don't want to say goodbye
I can't let you go
Even though it's over
I just can't let you go
I feel your love is growing colder
I don't want to live a lie
But I don't want to say goodbye
I want you by my side
And I can't let you go
Even though it's over
I just can't let you go
I feel your love is growing colder
I can't let you go even though it's over

Yesterday you were here by my side
Nothing to prove and nothing left to hide
You promised me the would be no goodbye
But now I find another set of lies
Babe you must be crazy
How could you be so blind
Why would you deceive me
Now you're saying that you're leaving me behind
So strong I'm not gonna run away
want you to know that I'm gonna break through
How long can I go on this way
There's nothing can I do
Desperate heart think you better hold out
Turn apart I was left to bleed
Don't start feeling you were sold out
Now you better face reality
Did my best did the best that I could
It's all been wanted just misunderstood
You been on talking
Your words are sounding so smoothe
Why don't you say it
You just want to out me loose
Oh don't say that you love me
Don't want to hear that you tried
Oh don't tell me that you need me
Don't want to hear none of your alibis
So strong I'm not gonna run away
Want you to know I'm gonna break through
How long can I go on this way
There's nothing I can do
Desperate heart think you better hold out
Turn apart I was left to bleed
Don't start feeling you were sold out
Now you better face reality

So strong I'm not gonna run away
Want you to know I'm gonna break through
How long can I go on this way
Tell me what can I do
There's nothing I can do
Desperate heart think you better hold out
Turn apart I was left to bleed
Don't start feeling you were sold out
Now you better face reality
Desperate hear Desperate hear

I never felt like this before
I think I'm gonna explode
Had so much I couldn't take no more
I'm heading for an overload
Oh no here I go
I can see the end
Looked around and I heard the sound
Of have one more my friend
Drinking with the devil
Gonna raise some hell
I'm just a rock and roll rebel
Got my soul to sell

Out all night till the sun comes up
You know I'm never gonna learn
Raise my glass and fill my cup
I'm playing with fire
And I'm gonna get burned
Like before he walked through the door
A glass was in his hand
Sat me down and poured me one more
And said I'm at you command
And I was drinking with the devil
Gonna raise some hell
I'm just a rock and roll rebel
Got my world to sell

Out all night till the sun comes up
You know I'm never gonna learn
Raise my glass and fill my cup
I'm playing with fire
And I'm gonna get burned
Like before he walked through the door
A glass was in his hand
Sat me down and poured me one more
And said I'm at your command yes I am

Drinking with the devil
Gonna raise some hell
I'm just a rock and roll rebel
Got my soul to sell
Drinking with the devil
You know I had my fill
Drinking with the devil
And he sticks me with the bill

Visions of artemis
Goddess of the moonlight
The spell remains unbroken
The wrong begin the rite of the fire dance
Standing strong and steady
Waiting for the night sign
The helix has just risen
Now we have no choice but to drink the wine
Now is the time of the fire dance fire dance

Black hearted woman
Creature of the deep night
In the darkness of your soul
I'm hungry and searching to find the light
You are in control
I am in your power
Bell eeeee the bell has tolled
Now I know that the hour is near
As I burn with fear of the fire dance

The dharuba voice the wind is calling your name
You leave me no choice
Here I am falling again and again
Again into the flames of the fire dance

I know just what you're thinking
I know just how you feel
Something somewhere inside you
Say you can't believe it's real
So you're gonna play the game
All the faces and the names
And you know you're never gonna change
Fool for the night
And you don't believe it
Fool for the night
And you just can't see it
Running through the shadows
Like a phantom in the night
And as the curtain raises
You get ready for the fight
Say you want to even up the score
Don't know what you're doing it for
Too much but you still need more
Fool for the night
And you don't believe it
Fool for the night
And you still can't see it
I ain't gonna try and tell ya
You know the story oh so well
Everybody's out to buy and sell ya
You're gonna wind up by yourself
Oh here it comes again
No it's never gonna end
I must be dreaming

Fool for the night
Fool for the night
I ain't gonna try and tell ya
You know the story oh so well
Everybody's out to buy and sell ya
You're gonna wind up by yourself
Oh here it comes again
And I know it's never gonna end
I must be dreaming
You love the night life
All the neon and the noise
And underneath the spotlight
You keep rockin with the boys
So you're gonna get it while you can
But you're never gonna understand
Nobody really gives a damn
Fool for the night and you don't believe it
Fool for the night why don't you see it
Fool for the night and you don't believe it
Fool for the night why don't you see it
Fool for the night Fool for the night

You better not mess around with me
You know you better think twice
Because I've been running on a really bad streak
And I'm just looking for a fight
So you took me by surprise
Thought I was gonna run
But the cross fire is in my eyes
And my body holds the gun
Here I come
You better get ready to make your move
Got my finger on the trigger and I'm gonna shoot
Get ready make your move
Got your name on my bullet and my aim is true

You better not mess around with me
I got you in my sights
I've been running on a really bad streak
Gonna shoot you down tonight
My back's against the wall
You know that you better think twice
One of us is gonna fall
I'm looking for a fight and the time is right
You better get ready to make your move
Got my finger on the trigger and I'm gonna shoot
I say you better get ready
Make your move
Got your name on my bullet and my aim is true

Dog night I'm so alone
A million miles out on my own
No one to talk no one to care
Searching for someone they could be anywhere
Magic and madness it's so very strange
Sometimes I think it's all pre-arranged
That same old feeling hits me again
Just the beginning but it feels like the end
Oh feel like I'm stranded out here
Oh I think I might disappear
No don't leave me stranded out here
Oh it's just the loneliness I fear

Lonely window fading star
You never felt so near yet so far
Tried to forget you the bet that I could
Don't try to find me it won't do any good
I'm caught in a dream so hard to locate
I'm just a captive of my own fate
No turning back no not tonight
You're moving on way out of sight
Oh I think I might disappear
No don't leave me stranded out here
Oh it's just the loneliness I fear
Stranded } * 8 times
Oh I feel like I'm stranded out here
Same as before
Stranded } * 8 times

I heard the sound of voices in the night
Spellbound there was someone calling
I looked around no one was in sight
Pulled down I just kept on falling
I've seen this place before
You were standing by my side
I've seen your face before tonight
Maybe I just see what I want it to be
I know it's a mystery
Do you remember me on a street of dreams
Running through my memory
On the street of dreams

There you stood a distant memory
So good like we never parted
Said to myself I knew you'd set me free
And here we are right back where we started
Soemthing's come over me
And I don't know what to feel
Maybe this fantasy is real
Now I know I see what I want it to be
But it's still a mystery

Do you remember me on the street of dreams
Running through my memory
On the street of dreams
You are on every face I see
On the street of dreams

SOLO

Tell me have you always been
On the street of dreams
Will we ever meet again my friend
Do you know just what it meand to be
On the street of dreams
Never know just who you'll see do ya
On the street of dreams
You can be who you want to be oh yeah
I can hear you calling me
I can feel you haunting me
Haunting me

I was taking a chance on a tight-rope
Walking the line to the end
I was ready to fall had my back to the wall
But I'm flying again...
I been shifting my gears. I been moving
Cause they wanted me dead or alive
But I'm making a break and I want you to take a ride
Take a ride -
Bring on the night
into the shadows and out of the light
Bring on the night
Let the Dream Chaser take you away

When the sun hits another horizon...
and the joker has started to deal...
You can quit if you choose but there's nothing to lose
By a spin of the wheel
Gotta burn all your bridges behind you, they'll keep dragging
you down if you stay...
and I know I ain't wrong cause I'm free and I'm on my way
on my way...
Bring on the night
into the shadows and out of the light
Bring on the night
Let the Dream Chaser take you away

I live on the edge of tomorrow
I'm racing along on the wind
I can see what I need, you better believe
I'm playin' to win
I got nothin' to fear when I'm flyin...
Cause yesterday's over and gone
and there's nothin' I can do...so I gotta keep movin' on..
Movin' on -
Movin' on -
Bring on the night
into the shadows and out of the light
Bring on the night
Let the Dream Chaser take you away...take you away
Bring on the night
"Dream Chaser"

Hungry and wild she was born to the night
A demon, a daughter or madness
One look from her eyes could burn you alive...
Drown you in oceans of sadness
Oh - even the deadly shades of night
Won't let me hide...from her eyes of fire

Face in the mirror we meet eye to eye
Passions of eternal fire
Desperately wanting and out of control
Dancing on winds of desire
Oh - even the deadly shades of night
Won't let me hide...from her eyes of fire

Curtain of darkness, screams of delight
Taunts me with her sirens calling...
I got to be strong but I can't hang on
Into the flames I am falling...
Oh - even the deadly shades of night
Won't let me hide (no, no, no, no)
from her eyes of fire...

She keeps burning...
She keeps burning me, burning me, burning me, burning me down
Eyes of fire

I know you been runnin' around
I know what you been sayin'
I treat you wrong, keep lettin' you down
I'm not giving what I'm taking
So hurt... Deep inside
You say there's nothin' to it
But my eyes are open wide
And I don't know why you do it
You say I cheated, you say that I lied
People tell ya I'm taking you for a ride
Oh but baby they lied...
Give you my love, I'll give you all of my time
Just to keep you satisfied
It's never enough until it's over the line
So you're livin' on the wild side
Undercover lovers late at night
Won't take the pain away...
Two wrongs don't make a right
But you wanna make me pay
I know, love can be real
You're not the only one whose got a bad deal
I know just how you feel, oh yeah

44 calibre rock and roll
Fever deep inside her
Hits me straight between the eyes
When she open's fire...
Ooh... you
Drippin' with desire
Skin tight, you're dynamite
I can't get much higher

Chorus: }x3 times

Every night I have the same old dream
'bout you and me and what's in between
So many changes, so many lies
Try to run, try to hide
)From everything that I feel inside
But I can't escape you or your frozen eyes...
Searching in the darkness
Fading out of sight
Love was here and gone like a thief in the night...
Stone Cold...
and I thought I knew you so well
Stone Cold
Can't break away from your spell

Another dark and empty night
If I was wrong I wanna make it right
But you are so distant, so far away
Your words like ice fall on the ground
Breaking the silence without a sound
Oh familiar strangers with nothing to say
Searching in the darkness
Fading out of sight
Love was here and gone like a thief in the night...
Stone Cold...
and I thought I knew you so well...
Stone Cold
Can't break away from your spell...
You leave me Stone Cold

Searching in the darkness
Fading out of sight
Love was here and gone like a thief in the night...
Stone Cold...
and I thought I knew you so well
Stone Cold
Can't break away from your spell
You're Stone Cold...yeah
I can't break away from your spell
Stone Cold...baby
I thought I knew you so well
You're stone cold...ice cold
Can't break away from your spell
(you put me in the deep freeze)
(oh baby don't you leave me)
(stone...cold, your leavin' me cold)
Stone Cold...I thought I knew you so well
Stone Cold...Can't break away from your spell

repeat til fade

First time I saw your face
By your side was the only place
That I would wanna be
Sometimes and I don't know why
Love can come or it can pass you by
Now you take all the love you gave to me
(You take it from me)
You're tearin' out my heart
Oh -

Never thought I'd see the day
You would throw my love away
And oh... it's killing me
One thing you'll never know
How it hurts to let you go...
As you turn and walk away from me...
(Walk away)
You're tearin' out me heart
Feel like I been ripped apart
You're tearin' out my heart...

Daybreaks, I try to be free
But your memory is haunting me
Oh - there's nothing I can do
All alone in the candlelight
I see your face again tonight
And I feel all the emptiness without you
(Without you) tearin' out my heart
Oh, I feel like I been ripped apart
Tearin' out my heart...
Whoa... my heart

I ain't lyin' to you baby...I hope you don't refuse
But I'm red hot...Ready or not...to give my love to you
I don't have forever, but I got tonight
The look in your eye said you'll give it a try...
I know the moment's right...
Ooh - give it to me...you got everything I need
Ooh - do it to me...Bring me to my knees
When you gimme that tite squeeze...
Baby, baby please
Gimme that tite squeeze

When you start to touch me...I can't believe it's real
You make it hard for me to take. I love the way you feel
I'm hungry for you baby, I just can't get enough..
If it's alright I'll take a bite, I'll taste your love
Ooh - give it to me...you got everything I need
Ooh - do it to me...Bring me to my knees
When you gimme that tite squeeze -
gimme that tite squeeze - yeah

Rock me in your cradle, roll me like the dice
Do it to me and I'll do it to you, do it till we do it right
Don't tell me that you love me, when you walk out the door
cause I'll hold you down, turn you around, I'll come back for more
Ooh - give it to me...you got everything I need
Ooh - do it to me...Bring me to my knees
When you gimme that tite, tite, tite yeah...
Gimme that tite squeeze, ooh baby, gimme that tite squeeze
Oh - bring me to my knees, gimme that tite squeeze

Contaminated fish and micro chips
huge supertankers on Arabian trips
oily propaganda from the leaders' lips
all about the future
there's people over here, people over there
everybody's looking for a little more air
crossing all the borders just to take their share
planning for the future

and we're so abused, and we're so confused
it's easy to believe that someone's gonna light the fuse
can't happen here, can't happen here
all that you fear they're telling you, can't happen here

Supersonic planes for a holiday boom
Rio de Janeiro in an afternoon
people out of work but there's people on the moon
looking for the future
concrete racktracks nationwide
juggernauts carving up the countryside
cars by the million on a one way ride
using up the future

and we're so abused, and we're so confused
it's easy to believe that someone's gonna light the fuse
can't happen here, can't happen here
all that you fear they're telling you, can't happen here

Satellites spying for the CIA
the KGB and the men in grey
wonder if I'm gonna see another day
somewhere in the future
We got everything we need for a peaceful time
take what you want but you can't take mine
everybody's living on the Siegfried line
worried 'bout the future
and we're so abused, and we're so confused
it's so easy to believe that someone's gonna light it
easy to believe someone's gonna light the fuse
can't happen here, can't happen here
all that you fear they're telling you, can't happen here can it?

You can't control me tell me what to do
chained in mediocrity so I can be like you
I am not a statue not part of a machine
I'm sick and tired of the whole routine
calculate your future, computerise your past
instant replay if it's gone too fast
take away my freedom, take away my home
i'm only human but it might now show
I'm not made of stone

I'm a freedom fighter I got something to say
I'm a freedom fighter get out of my way

Hide behind your politics, hide behind your rules
tell me I'm a man but you treat me like a fool
it's the same old story with a different name
you give us all a number and nothing changes
out in the winter of a world upon it's knees
everyone is watching but no one sees
you can't take my freedom you know it is my right
if you try and stop me I'm gonna fight
with all of my might

I'm a freedom fighter and I'm taking command
I'm a freedom fighter and I'm making a stand

Fighting for breath as the world gathers speed
time's running out for the things that I need

I'm a freedom fighter I gotta take a stand
I'm a freedom fighter, yeah that's what I am
I'm a freedom fighter I can't take it no more
I'm a freedom fighter no no more
I'm a freedom fighter but I'm not afraid
I'm a freedom fighter get out of my way.

I surrender to your heart babe
do anything that you want me to do
please be tender I'm in your hands girl
this is a feeling I never knew
you know I tried to make it on my own
that's not the way it was meant to be
spend my time waiting by the phone
oh darling come back to me

I surrder, I surrender
I'm giving up the role of pretender
oh be tender, girl be tender
can't you feel the love that I send you
I surrender.

I remember, seems like a lifetime
can't believe it's a matter of days
since you left I'm near to heartbreak
I want you so bad don't turn away
what does it take to stay by my side
you know I'll do what you want me to
don't take away this feeling inside
I'm still in love with you

I surrender, I surrender
I'm giving up the role of pretender
oh be tender, girl be tender
can't you feel the love that I send you
I surrender.

I surrender, I surrender
darling now won't you be tender
surrender, oh surrender
feel the love that I send you
I surrender.

There's a light in the sky
That hangs on the edge of illusion
Something very fine but it's something
You know is there
Mystery of time hidden by a man of confusion
But the hand is quicker than the eye

Only the stranger knows why
'Cos it's magic
You know it's magic that you'll find
You see it's magic
I know who you are there's magic in you

Keep your eye on the man
And don't look away for a moment
How is it done how does he make me see
Something up his sleeve when he speaks you want
To believe him

But the hand is quicker than the eye
Only stranger knows why
'Cos it's magic
Can't you see it's magic that you'll find
You know it's magic
I know who you are 'cos there's magic in you

Driven by a force
Moving in another dimension
Here for today, gone for eternity
Seeking for truth
hidden by the word of his wisdom

But the hand is quicker than the eye
Only the stranger knows why
Can't you feel it's magic
You know it's magic that you'll find
I said it's magic
I know who you are 'cos there's magic in you

Take good care it's a tightrope ride
neon city is on the dreamers' side
prime time losers going underground
they take you up and they shake you down

can't see nowhere
don't know, and I don't care
'cos here comes another midtown tunnel vision

Sidewalk cruiser in stiletto heels
frozen heart, eyes of steel
wrap your body around my soul
electric love is gonna take its' toll

can't see nowhere
don't know and I just don't care
that girl is the mother of my midtown tunnel vision

Sunset skyline night turns to day
down on the street you could fade away
no second chances in this here wasted life
it'll cut you down like a switchblade knife

can't see nowhere
don't know and I just don't care

Through the smoke of dancers move
Demonic dirty downtown groove
Visions of the day retreat
Come on baby feel the heat

Then I can disappear
And be at peace
But when my mind is clear
I can't get no release

In the dark the dancers shout
Scream the cry of freedom out
Strobe crescendos in the night
Minds take cover, souls take flight

Oh let me disappear
Set me free, set me free
But when my mind is clear
I can't get no release

Set me free, set me free baby
Well I can feel it yeah
I can feel it, feel it, feel it, feel it

You don't know what's happening, you want to go home
But there's nowhere to hide
You walk out on stage, your first time alone
The crowd's going wild
And you feel so alive
You could stand up and take this all night
They love you but you're in love with the spotlight
You're the spotlight kid

Jokers and women they hang 'round your door
They're all part of the scene
Just like a junkie you've got to have more
It's a pleasure machine
And you fly every night
But the dressing room mirror don't lie
They love you but you're in love with the spotlight
You're the spotlight kid

Your audience died, faded away
It's been so many years since that first matinee
It seems like an age
Encore one more time
For the ghosts of the part in your mind
They love you but you're in love with the spotlight
You're the spotlight kid
You're living in a dream
You're the spotlight kid
You're in love with the spotlight

You're walking up
with your eyes on me~
It's looking good but
I just don't know~
I need a girl who can
keep her head~~
All night long
you didn't come
Just to see the show~
I guess you know
What you want to see~
the way you smile
Let me know
I can't go wrong
I wanna touch you
I wanna feel you
I wanna make you mine~
I wanna love you
All night long
I wanna be with you
All night long
I wanna love you
All night long
I wanna be with you
All night long
I saw you standing
There by the stage~
your black stockings
And your
see through dress~
Your mouth is open
but I don't want to
Hear you say
good night
You're so young but
your over rated~~
I don't care 'cause
I like your style~~
Don't know
about your brain
But you look alright~
I wanna touch you
I wanna feel you
I wanna make you
Mine~~~~~
I wanna love you
All night long
I wanna be with you
All night long
I wanna love you
All night long
I wanna be
With you
all night long~

You're under cover but
your hands are clean
You show no class
but you like your own~
I know I can't stand
another night
All alone hey girl
would you like
Some wine~
what's your name
Are you by yourself~~
are you the one
What's your sign
can I take you home
I wanna touch you
I wanna feel you
I wanna make you mine
ah~ I wanna love you
All night long
I wanna be with you
All night long
I wanna love you
All night long
I wanna be with you
All night long
I wanna love you
All night long
I wanna be with you
All night long
I wanna love you
All night long
I wanna be
With you
all night long~

Look away from the sea
I can take you anywhere
Spend a vision with me
A chase with the wind

Move closer to me
I can make you anyone
I think you're ready to see
The Gates to Babylon
The power of what has been before
Rises to trap you within
A magic carpet ride a genie maybe more
A city of heavenly sin
Sleep with the devil and then you must pay
Sleep with the devil, the devil will take you away
Oh Gates of Babylon

You can see but you're blind
Someone turned the sun around
But you can see in your mind
The Gates of Babylon
You're riding the endless caravan
Bonded and sold as a slave
A saber dance removing all the veils
Getting as good as you gave
A saber dance removing all the veils
Getting as good as you gave
Sleep with the devil and then you must pay
Sleep with the devil, the devil will take you away

Look away from the sea
I can take you anywhere
Spend a vision with me
A chase with the wind

Move closer to me
I can make you anyone
I think you're ready to see
The Gates of Babylon

The power of what has been before
Rises to trap you within
A magic carpet ride a genie maybe more
A city of heavenly sin
Sleep with the devil and then you must pay
Sleep with the devil, the devil will take you away
Black Gates of Babylon

The devil is me
And I'm holding the key
To the gates of sweet hell
Babylon

Danger, danger the Queen's about to kill
There's a stranger, stranger and life about to spill
Oh no move me out of harm
I need a spell and a charm
Fly like the wind
I'm no pawn, so be gone, speed on and on
Kill the king
Tear him down

Kill the king, yeah
Strike him down

Power, power it happens every day
Power, devour all along the way
Oh no, move me out of harm
I need a spell and a charm
And fly like the wind
I'm no pawn, so be gone, speed on and on
Kill the king

Treason, treason, the spectre looms again
Treason, reason, the realm is safe and then
Oh no, move away from harm
I need a spell and a charm
Fly like the rainbow
I'm no pawn, so be gone, speed on and on

Kill the king
Tear him down
Kill the king, yeah
Got to take his crown
Crown

Kill the king
He'll rule no more
Strike him dead
The people roar

Kill the king, yeah
Take his head
Down, down, down, down
Oh, kill
Oh, kill
Oh, oh

Carry home my broken bones and lay me down to rest
Forty days of cries and moans I guess
I've failed to pass the test
I've been sent away not a thing to say
I'm banished from the fold
I'm a fallen angel who's lost his wings
And left out in the cold

Chorus:

Ooooh L. A. Connection
Oh L. A. Connection
L. A. Connection

Operator place a call keep a secret put it through
Investigator knows it all he's at the window I wonder who
I've got to cut the line and let me drift
Find a haven in the storm
I got no time I need a lift to where
It's sweet and close and warm

Chorus:
Ooooh L. A. Connection
Oh L. A. Connection
L. A. Connection

Carry home my broken bones and lay me down to rest
Forty days of cries and moans well
I've just failed test
Feel I'm balanced on the brim should I lean another way
Like a flame that's going on the dim
Needs blessing from the day

Chorus:

Ooooh L. A. Connection
Oh take me away I got nothing to say
It's got to be an L. A. Connection
L. A. Connection

There's a magical sound sliding over the ground
Making it shiver and shake Refrain 1
And a permanent cry falling out to the sky
Slippery and sly like a snake

With a delicate move kind of shifty and smooth
A shadow has covered light Refrain 2
Then e beam in the shade from a silvery blade
Has shattered the edge of the night

Chorus:

I know she waits below
Only to rise on command
When she comes for me
She's got my life in her hands

When a movement behind hit the side of my mind
I trembled and shook it away
Then another assault and I started to faulter
Fibres of steel turned to clay

With a bubbly turn now the water should churn
And push it way from the core
And a lady in white will bring sun the night
Brighter than ever before

Chorus:

Lady of the lake

Refrain 1

Refrain 2

Chorus:

Straight down I'm swirling around
Blinded and bruised by the strain
There must be some way to see
Diamonds out of the rain

Chorus:

Lady of the lake

At the end of a dream
If you know where I mean
When the mist just starts to clear

In a similar way
At the end of today
I could feel the sound of writing on the wall
It cries for you
It's the least that you can do

Like a spiral on the wind
I can hear it screamin' in my mind
Long live Rock and Roll
Long live Rock 'n' Roll
Long live Rock and Roll

in a different time
When the words didn't rhyme
You could never quite be sure
Then on with the change
It was simple but strange
And you knew the feeling seemed to say it all
It cries for you
It's the least that you can do
Like a spiral on the wind
I can hear it screamin' in my mind
Long live Rock and Roll
Long live Rock 'n' Roll
Long live Rock and Roll

If you suddenly see
What has happened to me
You should spread the word around

And tell everyone here
That it's perfectly clear
They can sail above it all on what they've found
It cries for you
It's the best that you can do
Like a sound that's everywhere
I can hear it screaming through the air
Long live Rock and Roll
Long live Rock 'n' Roll
Long live Rock and Roll

At the end of a dream
If you know where I mean
When the mist just starts to clear
In a similar way
At the end of today
I could feel the sound of writing on the wall
It cries for you
It's the least that you can do

Like a spiral on the wind
I can hear it screamin' in my mind

Long live Rock and Roll
Long live Rock 'n' Roll
Long live Rock and Roll

In a different time
When the words didn't rhyme
You could never quite be sure
Then on with the change
It was simple but strange
And you knew the feeling seemed to say it all
It cries for you
It's the least that you can do

Like a spiral on the wind
I can hear it screamin' in my mind

Long live Rock and Roll
Long live Rock 'n' Roll
Long live Rock and Roll

If you suddenly see
What has happened to me
You should spread the word around
And tell everyone here
That it's perfectly clear
They can sail above it all on what they've found
It cries for you
It's the best that you can do
Like a sound that's everywhere
I can hear it screaming through the air

Long live Rock and Roll
Long live Rock 'n' Roll
Long live Rock and Roll

She's been gone since yesterday
Oh, I didn't care
Never care for yesterdays
fancies in the air

No sighs or mysteries
She lay golden in the sun
No broken harmonies
But I've lost my way
She had rainbow eyes
Rainbow eyes

Love should be a simple blen
A whispering on the shore
No clever words
You can't defend
They lead to never more

Summer nights colder now
They've taken clown the fair
All the lights have died somehow
Or were they ever there
(Repeat)

I was feeling rather good
Should've touched some wood
Here she comes again
Reachin' out to bend my ear

She's worth another look
All the time it took
Pleasin' to the eye
How can I just disappear
It ain't clear
She's a bright and shining star
But I just must be sensitive to light
Oh I just might

I could have let her in
Give her just a spin
Let her think it's love
Better rise above it all

She's knockin' at the door
Seem to want some more
Never gets the clue
What am I to do she's fall
And she might call
She's a bright and shining star
But I just must be sensitive to light

She could dome well
I can always tell
She's ready for the kill
But I think that I will go

Sure I'm gonna see
Something just for me
Till it comes alone
When it's feeling wrong I'll know
Gotta take it slow
She's a bright and shining star
But I just must be sensitive to light

She's a bright and blazing star
But I just must be sensitive to light

I'm like a freight train
Feelin' no pain
I never turn back one track
Better step aside

Like a shot gun
I'm really someone
You'll feel my heat wave
Won't save anyone near to me

Chorus:
I'm steel
So come and try to bend me if you can
I don't feel
Before you know it it's over
Get out of my way
I'm street walking

No reputation
You better quick run
Cause I got no time I'll climb
All over you

You need a strong hand
To be a mean man
You've got to think fast
I'll last longer than you could I know

Chorus:
I'm steel
So come and try to bend me if you can
I don't feel
Before you know it it's over
Out of my way
I'm street walking

I'm a wild cat
Don't need to prove that
I'm always howlin' prowlin'
Stalkin' my prey

It could be your night
To feel the dog bite
And hear the slashing, crashin'
Tearin' inside of you

Chorus:
I'm steel
So come and try to break me if you can
Like a wheel
About to roll you over
Get out my way
I'm street walkin'

Can't forget his face
What a lonely place
Has he really let us go?

All the time that's lost
What's the final cost
Will I really get away?

All my life it seems
Just a crazy dream
Reaching for somebody's star

Can't believe it all
Did he really fall
What to do now I don't know

Something's called me back
There's a light in the black
and I´m ready to go
I'm coming home

Breathed the air before
Hear the thunder roar
Never knew it was for me

Always looking down
Lost and never found
Eyes that look but not to see

All my life it seems
Just a crazy dream
Reaching for somebody's star

Like an open door
That you passed before
But you never had a key

Something's called me back
There's a light in the black

I'm coming home, I'm coming home, yeah
I'm going back to my home

I'm going home, home, home
Going home, home, home
I'm coming back

Don't forget his face
What a lonely place
Did he really let us go

All the time that's lost
What's the final cost
Will I really get away?

All my life it seems
Just a crazy dream
Reaching for somebody's star

Can't believe it all
Did he really fall
What to do now, well I don't know

Something's called me back
Like a light in the black
Yes, I'm ready to go
I'm coming home, home, yeah

I've got my way back home
To the sky
There in the sky
I see your star

Oh na na na na
Mystery in me is something I can't see
But I see you very well
You slippy, cool, nobody's fool
But there's something inside I can't tell

I know a poor man, a rich man
I know I can talk to a king
But nobody here is gonna tell me
I can't find out one thing

I see your glow around you
Open your arms 'cause
I'm walking to you, come straight or through
Maybe I'm wrong but
I know it won't take long to see
Do you close your eyes
Do you close your eyes
Do you close your eyes when you making love, yeah, yeah
Making sweet love to me, yeah

The logical friend said that
I know in the end
The things that make me smile
To right from the start, I take the image of your heart
and know it all the while

I know a rich man, a poor man
I know I can talk to a king, yeah
So nobody here is gonna make me believe
I can't find out one thing

I see your glow around you
Open your arms 'cause I'm coming, running, straight or through
I could be wrong but I know it won't take long to see
Do you close your eyes
Do you close your eyes
Do you close your eyes when you making love, yeah

Do you close your eyes
Do you close your eyes, I've gotta know
Do you close your eyes when you making love

In the light of the day
You can hear the old one say
Was the sound last night the wind
Can you feel the change begin

By the fall of the snow
A single soul will go
The footsteps on the white
There's an unholy light

There's a hole in the sky
Something evil's passing by
What's to come - when the siren calls you go
To run with the wolf

When the world makes a turn
The eyes of one will learn
That the sound just like the wind
Only makes the change begin

By the end of the rain
The feelings passed again
And things that snapped and bited
Unholy light

There's a hole in the sky
Something evil's passing by
What's to come - when the siren calls you go
To run with the wolf

There's a break in the ground
Like the swirling water's angry as they pull you down

When the siren calls you go, yeah
To run with the wolf
Run with the wolf

There's a hole in the sky
Something evil is passing by
What's to come - when the siren calls you go, yeah
To run with the wolf
Run with the wolf

Like a beast in a field
You know just it pays in steel
You run with the wolf, oh oooh

Run with the wolf

See the break, you know it's the same
Now we go
To run, run, run
Run, run, run, run

Run with the wolf
Run with the wolf
Run with the wolf
Run with the wolf
Run, run, run
Now we go run, run, run, run
Run with the wolf
All right
Run with the wolf
Run with the wolf

High noon, oh I'd sell my soul for water
Nine years worth of breakin' my back
There's no sun in the shadow of the wizard
See how he glides, why he's lighter than air?
Oh I see his face!

Where is your star?
Is it far, is it far, is it far?
When do we leave?
I believe, yes, I believe

In the heat and the rain
With the whips and chains
To see him fly
So many die
We built a tower of stone
With our flesh and bone
Just to see him fly
But don't know why
Now where do we go?

Hot wind, moving fast across the desert
We feel that our time has arrived
The world spins, while we put his dream together
A tower of stone to take him straight to the sky
Oh I see his face!

Where is your star?
Is it far, is it far, is it far?
When do we leave?
Hey, I believe, I believe

In the heat and the rain
With the whips and chains
Just to see him fly
Too many die
We built a tower of stone
With our flesh and bone
To see him fly
But we don't know why
Ooh, now where do we go

All eyes see the figure of the wizard
As he climbs to the top of the world
No sound, as he falls instead of rising
Time standing still, then there's blood on the sand
Oh I see his face!

Where was your star?
Was it far, was it far
When did we leave?
We believed, we believed, we believed

In heat and rain
With the whips and chains
To see him fly
So many died
We built a tower of stone
With our flesh and bone
To see him fly

But why
In all the rain
With all the chains
Did so many die
Just to see him fly

Look at my flesh and bone
Now, look, look, look, look, Look at the tower of stone
I see your rainbow rising
Look there, on the horizon oh no, who's rising
And I'm coming home, I'm coming home, I'm coming home

Time is standing still
You, give back my will
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Going home I'm going home

My eyes are bleeding
And my heart is lead ahead
But it's not home
But it's not home
Ooh

Take me back
You, give me back my will
Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Going home
I'm going home

My eyes are bleeding
And my heart is lead ahead
But it's not home
But it's not home

Take me back, take me back
Back to my home ooh, ooh, ooh

If I'm high on the hill
She'd still been looking down at me
What does she see that brings her closer every day to my heart
If I'm away from home
And think I'm all alone
She's there, somewhere
I look around and see
And looking back at me
She's there, beware!

Creeping like a hungry cat
I've seen her before
I know it can mean that

The lady starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck
The lady starstruck, running after me
The lady starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck, yeah

I could fly to the moon
But she soon find me and wait me there
I never knew for a while as smile made me really care

She wants a souvenir
To everyone it's clear
She's hot, hot - hot, hot, one look
She want a photograph
But everybody laughs but not me 'cause I see

She's creeping like a hungry cat
I've seen her before
I know I can mean that

The lady starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck
The lady starstruck, running after me
The lady starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck, oh oh o-o-oh
Oh my
The lady starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck
The lady starstruck, running after me, yeah
The lady starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck, yeah

It used to be a game
Now I can't repeat my name at all
She seems to believe that
I never can refuse a call

She wants a souvenir
To everyone it's clear
She's hot; one look
She want a photograph
And everybody laughs, hah!
But not me 'cause I see

She's creeping like a hungry cat
I've seen her before
I know it can mean that

The lady starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck
The lady starstruck, running after me
The lady starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck, bad luck
The lady starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck

The lady starstruck running after me
The lady starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck
Bad luck, bad luck, bad luck
And back in the tree looking back at me
Climbing up my stair
I've just got to beware
Lady starstruck, yes, she's bad luck, bad luck

I've got nothing in my head, got a floor for a bed.
My future's at the bottom of a teacup
I've got half a pair of shoes and no time to lose.
I'm wondering when I'm gonna wise up

So, Fortune, shine your light on me (and my nose),
Cause I need some security.
You get a little bad luck and it grows and it grows.
I'm the black sheep of the family.

I've got half a pound of rice, a beard full of lice,
Political retrogression.
I've got a pocket full of dust, and eating is a must
If you want to make a good impression.

So, Fortune shine your light on me (and my dog),
Cause we need some security.
While other folks are living high on the hog.
I'm the black sheep of the family.

Don't talk to me about Society.
You got to play by the rules or pay the penalty.
Because there's nothing to choose between a handful of blues.
Double indemnity.

The whole world's wrong and my shadow's getting long.
I realize this song don't mean much.
I got an ache in my head. I want to go to bed.
Tomorrow, I don't have to wake up.

So, Wisdom shine your light on me (and my knees).
It's true what they say about familiarity.
There's nothing good this way, it's true what they say!
I'm the black sheep of the family

When evening falls
저녁이 질때쯤
She'll run to me
그녀는 내게 달려올거예요
Like whispered dreams
속삭이는 꿈과 같이
Your eyes can't see
당신의 눈으로는 볼 수 없지요
Soft and warm
부드럽고 따뜻하게
She'll touch my face
그녀는 나의 얼굴을 어루만질 거예요
A bed of straw Against the lace
레이스로 장식된 침대가 아닌
짚으로 만든 침대에서

We believed we'd catch the rainbow
우리는 무지개를 잡을 수 있다고 믿었죠
Ride the wind to the sun
태양까지 바람을타고
Sail away on ships of wonder
상상의 배를 타고 항해해요
But life's not a wheel
With chains made of steel
그러나 삶은 쇠사슬로 얽힌 수레는 아니죠
So bless me come the dawn
그래서 새벽이 찾아온 것을 감사해요

Come the dawn
새벽이 옵니다
Come the dawn
새벽이 옵니다
Come the dawn
새벽이 옵니다
Come the dawn
새벽이 옵니다

You'd never know there was music playing,
Until you talked your way inside the door.
And then a sound like rolling thunder
Began to push you right through the floor.
And there's a great white sign with big black letters
That just about explains it all:

That just about explains it all:

I'm a wheel, I'm a wheel
I can roll, I can feel
And you can't stop me turning
'Cause I'm the sun, I'm the sun
I can move, I can run
But you'll never stop me burning

* Come down with fire
Lift my spirit higher
Someone's screaming my name
Come and make me holy again
I'm the man on the silver mountain
I'm the man on the silver mountain

I'm the day, I'm the day
I can show you the way
And look I'm right beside you
I'm the night, I'm the night
I'm the dark and the light
With eyes that see inside you

* x 2

Just look at me and listen
I'm the man, the man, give you my hand
Come down with fire
Lift my spirit higher
I'm the man on the silver mountain
I'm the man on the silver mountain
I'm the night the light
The black and the white
The man on the silver mountain

Paint me a picture and hang it on your wall.
Color it dark where the lines must start to crawl.
Down, down, down.
Spin me around and around.
Draw me away to the night from the day.
Leave not a trace to be found.
Down, down.

Nothing is real but the way that I feel.
And I feel like going down, down, down, down,
Down, down, down, down, down.

Paint me a picture of eyes that never see,
With flashes of light that will burn for only me.
Hey, hey, hey, there's only the Devil to pay.
I'm ready to go. Pull me down from below.
Give me a place I can lay.
Hey, Hey.

Nothing is real but the way that I feel.
And I feel like going down, down, down, down,
Down, down, down, down

It's only been an hour
Since he locked her in the tower
The time has come
He must be undone
By the morning

Many times before
The tyrant's opened up the door
Then someone cries
Still we close our eyes
Not again

Meet me when the sun is in the western skies
The fighting must begin before another someone dies
Cross bows in the fire light
Greensleeves waving
Madman raving
Through the shattered night

Flames are getting higher
Make it leap unto the spire
Draw bright down
Cut it to the ground
We shall dance around the fire

No more night
We have seen the light
Let it shine on bright
Hang him higher

Old hollow eyes
Got no ties
Walking by the light of the moon
A pair of shiny boots
With strings and flutes
Rising like a crazy balloom
Close your door
He's on the loose
Here he comes
No hope for you
Ooh Shake Charmer

Hey mystery man
What's your plan
I've got to tell the world
To beware you don't care
He'll hipnotise you
And tell you lies
He's hiding at the top of the stairs
Close your door
I see him coming out
There's no hope for you
Ooh Snake Charmer
Shake Charmer

Hey fancy face
Got no place
Living from a hole in the ground
Old sparkle eyes
He never cries
One step ahead of the hounds
Close your door
He's on his way
He's coming out of the shadows now
There's no hope for you
Ooh Snake Charmer
Shake Charmer

Old hollow eyes
Got no ties
Play your strings and flutes
Mystery man what's your plan
Snake Charmer
He'll harm yer

See the stars come fallin' down the sky
Gently passing, they kiss your tear drops dry
See the wind come, softly blow
Your hair from your face
And the rain comes falling down
In its crazy way
Still I'm sad

For myself my tears just fall in the dust
As I search in the night and find they're lost
See the wind come gently blow
Time into my heart
And the rain comes falling down
While we're apart
Still I'm sad

Version 2 (Yardbirds' version?)

See the stars come joining down from the skies
Gently passing they kiss your tears when you cry
See the wind of summer blow your hair upon your head
See the rain, the falling rain, it's rain
Still I'm sad

Oh my flowers, my tears are falling two days
They are driving the night profound, they are lost
Flower, flower the wind is blowing
Time into my heart
When the wind blows hard, we are apart
Still I'm sad

Oh, oh, oh, oh, Still I'm sad
Oh, oh, oh, oh, How I'm sad

One day in the Year of the Fox
Came a time remembered well
When the strong young man
of the rising sun
Heard the tolling of the
great black bell
One day in the Year of the Fox
When the bell began to ring
It meant the time had come
for one to go
To the temple of the king
There in the middle of the
circle he stands
Searching seeking
With just one touch of
his trembling hand
The answer will be found
Daylight waits while the
old man sings
Heaven help me
And then like the rush
of a thousand wings
It shines upon the One
And the day has just begun

One day in the Year of the Fox
Came a time remembered well
When the strong young man
of the rising sun
Heard the tolling of the
great black bell
One day in the Year of the Fox
When the bell began to sing
It meant the time had come
for the One to go
To the temple of the king
There in the middle of the
people he stands
Seeing feeling
With just a wave of the
strong right hand
he's gone
To the temple of the king

Far from the circle
at the edge of the world
He's hoping wondering
Thinking back on the
stories he's heard of
What he's going to see
There in the middle of a
circle it lies
Heaven help me
Then all could see by the
shine in his eyes
The answer had been found
Back with the people
in the circle he stands
Giving feeling
With just one touch of a
strong right hand
they know
Of the temple and the king
