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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
