Woke up in the morning staggered out of bed
Thought about getting back again, but went downstairs instead Read the daily paper have to know the truth Slammed the door as I ran outside, looked at my watch and cried Gotta get to work on time Gotta get to work on time Then the sky turned a deeper blue Not a cloud as the sun shone through But all around rain kept falling to the ground The wind was blowing but the trees didn't make a sound Just another alien afternoon Just another alien afternoon Time that I was leaving while there's still a chance Before I start believing in what I see or hear Nothing here to keep me, nothing anywhere Gotta get out pack my bags before I go insane Gotta get away in time Gotta get away in time Then the sky turned from blue to green Took on colours I have never seen Then a sound started ringing in my ears I heard voices but in truth there's nobody there Just another alien afternoon Just another alien afternoon To be there back where I belong To feel again the wind upon my face To see again all that I took for granted All that I left and everything I knew We are home We are your home We are all your home Not another alien afternoon Never more to go wandering Never leaving my world behind There was never a reason To leave my heart and my home behind Where I was born is where I should be now I would never be lonely I would never be sad again I wanted to go anywhere I wanted to see how strange it all could be Nothing would ever take me away again Never more to go wandering Never leaving my world behind No, no, no, no Nothing will ever take me away again, away again No, no, no, no |

And whether you want it
Or whether you hate it And try to battle it out Someday you may just come to discover It was all for the best The change has come, maybe a second chance Anything now could be there for you But whether you want it Or whether you hate it Nothing will ever be quite the same again Everything is in it's place I know my limitations I don't want to change a thing I know that I can live with them Why should I care? But then sometimes right out of the blue News on the radio Words on the telephone Suddenly change everything Nothing's quite what it seems And whether you want it Or whether you hate it And try to battle it out Someday you may just come to discover It was all for the best The change has come, maybe a second chance Anything now could be there for you But whether you want it Or whether you hate it Nothing will ever be quite the same again I got my lines, I got a part to play I don't want to be surprised I like to plan from day to day Why should I care?

Gimme a song I know, something I can relate to
People never criticize the way I play Show me the way to go, I need to make a breakthrough I don't think that I can wait another day It's putting years on me, I'm a young man going grey I don't believe that I can wait another day This simple melody is all I have I make my living that way I make good friends that way Ooh, I really can make no sense of it, as hard as I try Is it something I do wrong please won't you tell me why People all seem to like it and no one knows about it more than I I met a man today who walked in my direction Stopped took off his hat and lit a cigarette He listened carefully to what I had been playing He threw a coin into my hat and walked away Always play just what they want me to Everybody wants the same song If only I could do it in my own way I feel such emotion, emotion, ooh, emotion, emotion, ooh Say gimme a song I know, something I can relate to And no one wants to criticize the way I play I should just say no and play them what I want to Cos I don't think that I can wait another day It's putting years on me, I'm a young man going grey I don't believe that I can wait another day This simple melody is all I have I make my living that way I make good friends that way They feel my emotion, emotion, ooh, ooh emotion, emotion, ooh |

Calling all stations
Can anybody tell me, tell me exactly where I am I've lost all sense of direction Watching the darkness closing around me Feeling the cold all through my body That's why I'm calling all stations In the hope that someone hears me A single lonely voice I feel the sensation disappearing There's a tingling in my arms And there's a numbness in my hands All the broken promises All my good intentions don't add up to very much And I realise whatever happened, whatever happened I remember all the moments that I've wasted in my life All the things I was always gonna do Why is it now when it's too late That I've finally realised it's important to me To think that everything that's dear to me And is always in my heart Could so easily be taken And it's tearing me apart Going over and over in my mind I relive it one second at a time Calling all stations Can anybody tell me, tell me exactly where I am How different things look when your all on your own Watching the darkness closing all around me All around me And I'm lost with feeling Of your arms to remind me Of everything that's dear to me And is always in my heart Could so easily be taken And it's tearing me apart Going over and over in my mind I relive it one second at a time Don't you know there's never been a moment When I haven't had the thought That everything that's dear to me And is always in my heart Could so easily be taken And it's tearing me apart Going over and over in my mind I relive it one second at a time As I sit here in the darkness Feeling so alone And everything that's dear to me And is always in my heart... |

So why do I find it so difficult to let my feelings unfold Had I the courage to tell you I'd promise you this If that's what you need I'll be the river I'll be the mountain always beside you If that's what you need I will be stronger I will be braver than ever before When you came along and turned it all around I promised myself I wouldn't tell you Until we stood on solid ground Holding the candle between us I'll tell you this If that's what you need I'll be the river I'll be the mountain always beside you If that's what you need I will be stronger I will be braver than ever before And if there's any kind of danger I hear you calling out my name You can follow in my footsteps And I will lead you safely back again I never understood you however hard I tried But it took me a while until I realised That all the problems were mine Holding you nearer to me to tell you this If that's what you need I'll be the river I'll be the mountain always beside you If that's what you need I will be stronger I will be braver than ever before And when things go wrong I'll be your conscience there to remind you all of your life When you go wrong I'll be the reason you'll be protected all of your days |

No Son of Mine
Well, the key to my survival was never in much doubt the question was how I could keep sanetrying to find a way outthings were never easy for me peace of mind was hard to find and I needed a place where I could hide somewhere I could call mineI didn't think much about it til it started happening all the time soon I was living with the fear everyday of what might happen at nightI couldn't stand to hear the crying of my motherand I remember when I swore that, that would be the last they'd see of me and I never went home againthey say time is a healer and now my wounds are not the same I rang the bell with my heart in my mouth I had to hear what he'd sayHe sat me down to talk to me he looked me straight in the eyeshe said: You're no son, no son of mine You're no son, no son of mine You walked out, you left us behind and you're no son, no son of mine Oh his words how they hurt me, I'll never forget it and as the time, it went by, I lived to regret it You're no son, no son of minebut where should I go and what should I doyou're no son,no son of mine but I came herefor help, I came here for you Well the years they passed slowly I thought about him everyday what would I do, if we passed on the street would I keep running away in and out of hiding places soon I'd have to face the facts we'd havw to sit down and talk it over and that would mean going back they say that time is a healer and now my wounds are not the same I rang the bell with my heart in my mouth I had to hear what he'd say He sat me down to talk ro me he looked straight in the eye she said:You're no son of mine. |

As the buildings crumble, tumble to the ground
And the dust-filled smoke rises in the air You know that somebody somewhere looks with pride, they're satisfied To all who think they know To everyone that knows that they're right D'you ever wonder why D'you never ask the question even in the depths of night? Now as the daylight fading ends another day For too many life will never be the same And it is all for the reason they will never understand To all who think they know To everyone that knows that they're right D'you ever wonder why D'you never ask the question even in the depths of night? And on the morning after do you realise See the ruined faces and the ruined lives Inside your head do you never have the thought a moment of doubt? To all who think they know To everyone that knows that they're right D'you ever wonder why D'you never ask the question even in the depths of night? There are only dreams one like any other What means the earth to one or few means nothing to another There are only dreams like any other Drawing lines upon the sand, on the land, on the sea Then dying to defend them seems quite meaningless to me Don't you know what means the earth to some or only one Can mean just nothing nothing nothing to another There are only dreams like any other There are only differences, worth living but not dying for One man's joy makes another man weep Nothing you can do is ever gonna change it One man's saint is another man's fool One man's hot is another man's cool And when the war is over, won Will there be peace for evermore? Statues carved right out of stone, out of wood, made from gold Praying for their mercy that won't save their souls Don't you know what means the earth to some or only one Can mean just nothing nothing nothing to another There are only dreams like any other There are only hopes and beliefs one like any other (there are only dreams like any other) Worth living but not dying for Living but not dying for not killing for There are only dreams like any other like any other To all of those who think that they know All I can say yes all I can say One man's joy makes another man weep Nothing you can do is ever gonna change it One man's saint is another man's fool One man's hot is another man's cool There are only dreams like any other There are only hopes and beliefs, one like any other There are only dreams like any other... |

Well I heard you sold them America
You said it was built to last Price is right, the time is now You said it was going fast Well I've got my beliefs And I don't agree with a single word you say A convincing smile, a twist of truth You seem to get your way And they believed you With every word you said It always sounded so convincing As you signed their life away So tell me what you're thinking When you lie in your bed The suffering you've caused Surely it must go around your head Well they call you Mr Cover A predator at heart A man who's reputation Was dangerous from the start You lie and you steal, cheat and you rob Sold anything you could You never had a second thought for people that you hurt And they believed you With every word you said It always sounded so convincing As you signed their life away So tell me what you're thinking When you lie in your bed The suffering you've caused Surely it must go around your head It's been so many years Well you've hurt so many people As you've singed their lives away Do you ever spare a moment's thought about the price they have to pay? And they believed you With every word you said It always sounded so convincing As you signed their life away So tell me what you're thinking When you lie in your bed The suffering you've caused Surely it must go around your head... |

Don't talk back to me, don't talk back to me
Don't talk back to me, don't talk Going round in circles, hearing too many points of view Just words to tire me out, small talk I could do without I would be amazed if you returned to see things my way Now that you've been disrespectful to my sense of pride Isn't it a shame that you were lying when you said to me (small talk) I was the only one, you and I were meant to be I expect you'll never really feel the way that I do All of this is with regret, I'm sure you will agree Say something to me, anything at all I want you to mean what you say I've seen all I want to see, and you mean the world to me I've lived for each moment to be with you, with you, with you Small talk, small talk, small talk, small talk You say I don't talk enough, that applies to both of us Don't try to sound me out, something I could do without So much goes on inside your head, I often wonder Have you heard enough to know, there's nothing left to say Say something to me, anything at all I want you to mean what you say I've seen all I want to see, and you mean the world to me I've lived for each moment to be with you, with you, with you Small talk Small talk Ooh small talk That's all I ever hear Small talk I'll be alright It may take sometime But I'll be alright (don't talk back to me) I'll be alright (don't talk back to me) (don't want to be alone, nothing worth to carry on) I'll be alright (don't talk back to me) (try hard to understand, you won't seem to lend a hand) I'll be alright (don't talk back to me) (without you'll fail to see, you never spare a thought for me) I'll be alright (don't talk back to me) (so many things you said, going round in circles) I'll be alright (don't talk back to me) (I'll rise above it all, enough to see another day) I'll be alright I'll be alright Don't talk back to me... |

Gimme a song I know, something I can relate to
People never criticise the way I play Show me the way to go, I need to make a breakthrough I don't think that I can wait another day It's putting years on me, I'm a young man going grey I don't believe that I can wait another day This simple melody is all I have I make my living that way I make good friends that way Ooh, I really can make no sense of it, as hard as I try Is it something I do wrong please won't you tell me why People all seem to like it and no one knows about it more than I I met a man today who walked in my direction Stopped took off his hat and lit a cigarette He listened carefully to what I had been playing He threw a coin into my hat and walked away Always play just what they want me to Everybody wants the same song If only I could do it in my own way I feel such emotion, emotion, ooh, emotion, emotion, ooh Say gimme a song I know, something I can relate to And no one wants to criticise the way I play I should just say no and play them what I want to Cos I don't think that I can wait another day It's putting years on me, I'm a young man going grey I don't believe that I can wait another day This simple melody is all I have I make my living that way I make good friends that way They feel my emotion, emotion, ooh, ooh emotion, emotion, ooh |

There has always been a dividing line
But you choose, you choose, yes you choose not to see it And then you wonder why you fall It cuts through the heart of every city If you climb to the top of the highest building You can see where it falls 'cause the streetlights stop The colours start to change You hear a voice inside you Not the words that you wanted to hear Not the things that you wanted to see hey, hey, hey, hey In the comfort and safety of your own home Remember those outside in the cold And the wind and the rain And take in your hands a little ray of light And turn it into a beam that pierces the darkness of the night There has always been a dividing line But you choose, you choose, yes you choose not to see it Sometimes we believe if we close our eyes The rain might wash it away That's why we stumble and we fall Not the words that you wanted to hear Not the things that you wanted to see hey, hey, hey, hey When everything that you hold dear to you Has finally faded away from your life The last cold ray of sunshine slowly disappears Round the corner of the building And leaves you alone When darkness covers the city and the streets are silent too What will you turn to... |

You're no longer part of my life
I must remind myself again Too much has happened to us to cause eachother pain It's over now, there's too much guilt to share Once there would have been a time for talking and learning There must be some other way To get where we have to go There must be some other way Please show me another way Once it would have been so easy, to do what we have to do There must be some other way Please show me another way Are we no more than parts in a play Letting other people, strangers say our lines? To think it should come to this, after all these years What was mine and what should stay behind Once there would have been a time of sharing, of caring There must be some other way To get where we have to go There must be some other way Please show me another way Once it would have been so easy to do what we have to do (there must be some other way) There must be some other way Please show me, show me another way... ------ There's nothing much left to say We have said it once and said it all again This time we have gone too far, it could never be the same It's time to carry on create new lives Once we promised we would stay together forever There must be some other way To get where we have to go (there must be some other way) There must be some other way Please show me another way Once it would have been so easy to do what we have to do (what we have to do) You know there must be some other way Please show me another way You know there must be another way Please show me, show me another way (there must be some other way) You know there must be some other way... |

All I need is a TV show, that and the radio
Down on my luck again, down on my luck again I can show you I can show you some of the people in my life I can show you I can show you some of the people in my life It's driving me mad just another way of passing the day I, I get so lonely when she's not there I... You're just another face that I know from the TV show I have known you for so very long I feel you like a friend Can't you do anything for me, can I touch you for a while Can I meet you another day and we can fly away I can show you I can show you some of the people in my life I can show you I can show you some of the people in my life It's driving me mad just another way of passing the day I, I get so lonely when she's not there I... Turn it on, turn it on, turn it on again Turn it on, turn it on, turn it on again I can see another face Turn it on, turn it on, turn it on again I can see another face Turn it on, turn it on, turn it on again |

A day of uncertain weather
Captured in a frame forever A face in a faded photograph He must have had a life Maybe with a family People who meant everything to him A sinner, a saint, a soldier Caught up in a war he never Had a chance to start or build a life All gone long ago Leaving no trace Disappearing like smoke in the wind To become just a face without a name Leaving no trace Disappearing like smoke in the wind Hopes and fears important plans Forgotten memories Footsteps fading in the sand, ooh Schemes and dreams small and grand Nothing left to see Footsteps fading in the sand, ooh Someone who cast a shadow Maybe just a lazy man Doesn't make much difference now it's true A day of uncertain weather Captured in a frame forever A face in a faded photograph All gone long ago Leaving no trace Disappearing like smoke in the wind To become just a face without a name One more to add to the total Of those never heard of again Yes he's gone Just a face without a name Leaving no trace Disappearing like smoke in the wind All gone Just a face without a name Leaving no trace Disappearing like smoke in the wind... |
