Trevor Horn

Memories, how they fade so fast
Look back, that is no escape
Tied down, now you see too late.
Lovers, they will never wait

I am a camera

Take heart, I could never let you go
And you, always let the feeling show
Love us all, how you never broke your heart
How you lose them
If you feel the feeling start

I am a camera, camera, camera

And you, may find time will blind you
This to just remind you
All is meant to be

There, by the waterside
Here, where the lens is wide
You and me
By the sea
Taken in tranquility

Taken, taken so easily
To pass into glass reality
Transform, to transfer, to energy

Take heart, I could never let you go
And you, always let the feeling show
Love us all, how you never broke your heart
How you lose them
If you feel the feeling start

I am a camera, camera, camera

Taken, taken, so easily
To pass into glass reality
Transformer, transferring energy

And you, may find time will blind you
This to just remind you
All is meant to be

I am a camera, camera, camera

Here, by the waterside
There, where the lens is wide
You and me
By the sea
Taken in tranquility

I am a camera, camera, camera

Memories, how they fade so fast
Look back, that is no escape
Tied down, now you see too late.
Lovers, they will never wait

I am a camera

Take heart, I could never let you go
And you, always let the feeling show
Love us all, how you never broke your heart
How you lose them
If you feel the feeling start

I am a camera, camera, camera

And you, may find time will blind you
This to just remind you
All is meant to be

There, by the waterside
Here, where the lens is wide
You and me
By the sea
Taken in tranquility

Taken, taken so easily
To pass into glass reality
Transform, to transfer, to energy

Take heart, I could never let you go
And you, always let the feeling show
Love us all, how you never broke your heart
How you lose them
If you feel the feeling start

I am a camera, camera, camera

Taken, taken, so easily
To pass into glass reality
Transformer, transferring energy

And you, may find time will blind you
This to just remind you
All is meant to be

I am a camera, camera, camera

Here, by the waterside
There, where the lens is wide
You and me
By the sea
Taken in tranquility

Part I

Run down a street
Where the glass shows
That summer has gone
Age, in the doorways
Resenting the pace of the dawn.
All of them standing in line
All of them waiting for time.
>From time, the great healer,
The machine-Messiah
Is born.

Cables that carry the life
To the cities we build
Threads that link diamonds of life
To the satanic mills
Ah, to see in every way
That we feel it every
Day, and know that
Maybe we'll change
Offered the chance
To finally unlearn our lessons
And alter our stance.

Part II

Friends make their way into systems of chance
(reply- friends make their way of escape into systems of chance)
Escape to freedom I need to be there
Waiting and watching, the tables are turning
I'm waiting and watching
I need to be there.

I care to see them walk away
And, to be there when they say
They will return.

Machine, Messiah
The mindless
Search for a higher
Controller
Take me to the fire
And hold me
Show me the strength of your
Singular eye.

Part III

History dictating symptoms of ruling romance
Claws at the shores of the water upon which we dance
All of us standing in line
All of us waiting for time
To feel it, all the way
And to be there when they
Say they know that
Maybe we'll change
Offered the chance
To finally unlearn our lessons
And alter our stance.

Machine, machine Messiah.
Take me into the fire

Hold me, machine Messiah
And show me
The strength of your singular eye.

I asked my love to give me shelter
And all she offered me were dreams
Of all the moments spent together
That move like never ending streams.

Run to the light
Everything is alright
Run thro' the light of day
You run to the light of night

And every movement made together
Till every thought was just the same
And all the pieces fit forever
In the game.

Welcome to the light
Now everything is okay
Run thro' the light of night
You run to the light of day.

I asked my love to give me shelter

And every movement made together
Till every thought was just the same
And all the pieces fit forever
In the game.

Welcome to the light
Now everything is okay
Run thro' the light of night
You run to the light of day.

Tempus Fugit
Downes/Horn/Howe/Squire/White

Born in the night
She would run like a leopard
That freaks at the sight
Of a mind close beside herself
And the nearer I came
How the country would change
She was using the landscape
To hide herself.


More in the mind
Than the body this feeling
A sense at the end
Of a circular line
That is drawn at an angle
I see when I'm with you
To navigate waters and finally answer to-yes.

If you were there you would want to be near me
Innocence, you could hold the materials
And though nothing would really be living
It would shock Your fall into landing light
In the north sky time flies fast to the morning
The cold of the dawn it meant nothing to us
You were keeping your best situation
An answer to-yes


(Yes, Yes) And the moment I see you
(Yes, Yes) It's so good to be near you
(Yes, Yes) And the feeling you give me
(Yes, Yes) Makes me want to be with you
(Yes, Yes) From the moment you tell me - yes


If you could see all the roads I have traveled
Towards some unusable last equilibrium
Run like an athlete and die like a dead beaten speed-freak
An answer to all of your answers to-yes


In the north sky time flies faster than morning
The cold of the dawn it meant nothing to us
You were keeping your best situation
An answer to Yes


(Yes, Yes) And the moment I see you
(Yes, Yes) It's so good to be near you
(Yes, Yes) And the feeling you give me
(Yes, Yes) Makes me want to be with you
(Yes, Yes) If we wait for an answer
(Yes, Yes) Will the silence be broken
(Yes, Yes) Should we wait for an answer
(Yes, Yes) Do we leave it unspoken


(Yes Yes Yes Yes . . .)

I see a man in a white car
Move like a ghost on the skyline
Take all your dreams
And you throw them away
Man in a white car.

I see a man in a white car
Move like a ghost on the skyline
Take all your dreams
And you throw them away
Man in a white car.

Memories, how they fade so fast
Look back, that is no escape
Tied down, now you see too late.
Lovers, they will never wait

I am a camera

Take heart, I could never let you go
And you, always let the feeling show
Love us all, how you never broke your heart
How you lose them
If you feel the feeling start

I am a camera, camera, camera

And you, may find time will blind you
This to just remind you
All is meant to be

There, by the waterside
Here, where the lens is wide
You and me
By the sea
Taken in tranquility

Taken, taken so easily
To pass into glass reality
Transform, to transfer, to energy

Take heart, I could never let you go
And you, always let the feeling show
Love us all, how you never broke your heart
How you lose them
If you feel the feeling start

Taken, taken, so easily
To pass into glass reality
Transformer, transferring energy

And you, may find time will blind you
This to just remind you
All is meant to be

I am a camera, camera, camera

All of those wild american bilinguals
Who talk to you in paris of their lonely lives
School days and last days out there in the midwest
They climb on their liners and rejoin their wives

Walking down boulevards electric eyes
Would gaze at the waveforms and gasp at their size
Let them be lonely and say you don't care

Astro boy, i'm watching the proles on parade
Astro boy, i'm watching the proles on parade

Una with long hair will stand by your side
And the friends who were hungry could swallow your pride
Chromium pets that video screens would show
Pictures of helplessness old kings and queens
Radio stations that fade as in dust

All their transmitters are crumbling with rust
Let them be broken and say you don't care

Astro boy, i'm watching the proles on parade
Astro boy, i'm watching the proles on parade
Astro boy, i'm watching the proles on parade
Let them be broken and say you don't care
Astro boy, i'm watching the proles on parade

oh go johnny kick me in the head
aimin for the floorboard but they pick me up instead
through the ringing from the night before
the engines running gotta pay a call

johnny drove the halftrack
cause we could not find the jeep

driving all night out of fear
got in the ribs every time I changed gear

I'm gonna take a ride, gonna pick up the trail

I'm gonna pick up the tail
(pickin up, picken up the tail)
now you know how it's hard to keep the fighting clean

oh go johnny gonna fight the war
shotgun in the morning at the local liquor store
oh go talking bout them diesel fules
johnny tell the captain go and polish his tunes
lying on the wasteground with a blanket on his face
indicating that he's left the human race
hell went open when the world came in
gotta keep your head if you wanna win

I'm gonna take a ride, gonna pick up the tail
gonna go where we've never been
I'm gonna pick up the tail
(picki8ng up, pickin up the tail)

I had a dream on a back lot
I saw my life like a long shot
I smile at faces in a picture parade
of all the stills from the films that you've made
and we would see me a ????
up there drinking coffee on the G O condo

Elstree, Remember me
I had a part in a B movie
I played a man from history
Elstree, I look at me
Now I work for the BBC
Life is not what it used to be

I took no dives in the fight scene
I had a stuntman keep my suit clean
there's no technology could make up the song
they stop the orchestra and you get it wrong

elstree, remember me
I had a part in a B movie
I played a man from history
Elstree, I look at me
Now I work for the BBC
Life is not what it used to be
Elstree

They made a field into a war zone
I beat the enemy on my own
all the bullets just went over my head
there's no reality and no one dead

elstree, remember me
I had a part in a B movie
I played a man from history
Elstree, I look at me
now I work for the BBC
Life is not what it used to be

I love you, Miss Robot
Programmed just to please
I love you, Miss Robot
Electronic tease

You make love like a metronome
Don't drive too fast when you take me home
Touch the seam on your silver skin
I feel so hard when you take me in

I love you, Miss Robot
Programmed just to please
I love you, Miss Robot
Electronic tease

We talk of love on the telephone
When your voice fades there's a paying tone
Force the coin and you're there again
D.I. the loneliness brain to brain

I love you, Miss Robot
Programmed just to please
I love you, Miss Robot
Electronic tease

I must leave, Miss Robot
Give your love to me
I love you, Miss Robot
Do you love me?

I must leave, Miss Robot
Give yourself to me

Though today you might be riding
The engines of progress
Working in the major factories
Call me if you ever feel like letting go
I still remember the days of
Kid Dynamo, Kid Dynamo
Kid Dynamo, Kid Dynamo

bowowowowowo wa-ah ow
wowowowowowo wa-ah ow

spreading in the subways
of the playback from the train tracks
I think your mind was born with water wings
and now when I see you
all the generation screams
I remember the dreams of
Kid Dynamo, Kid Dynamo
Kid Dynamo, Kid Dynamo
dyna
Kid Dynamo, I remember you
Kid Dynamo, because I sleep with you
Kid Dynamo, cause I have been with you

oh let it be said how the media builds stars
and our minds will not change only our cars

Kid Dynamo, Kid Dynamo

Kid Dynamo
Kid Dynamo, I remember you
Kid Dynamo, because I think of you
Kid Dynamo, cause I have looked at you
Kid Dynamo

On some lonely motorway
I was forced to spend the day
Services--I stop the car
Restaurant and in the bar

I lie right back and turn the radio on

Now for major surgery
I'll be you and you'll be me
Wonder what was in her mind
Was I really so unkind

To lie right back and turn the radio on

Technopop
Technopop
Technopop

Can we settle out of court
Loyalty cannot be bought
Effortlessly changing gear
Maybe this will all end here

I lie right back and turn the radio on

Technopop
Technopop
Technopop
Technopop

I heard you on the wireless
back in Fifty Two
Lying awake intent at
tuning in on you
If I was young it didn't stop
you coming through
Oh a oh
They took the credit
for your second symphony
Rewritten by machine
and new technology
and now I understand
the problems you can see
Oh a oh
I met your children
Oh a oh
What did you tell them
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Pictures came
and broke your heart
Oh a a a
And now we meet
in an abandoned studio
We hear the playback
and it seems so long ago
And you remember the jingles
used to go
Oh a oh
You were the first one
Oh a oh
You were the last one
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
In my mind and in my car
we can't rewind
we've gone to far
Oh a a a oh
Oh a a a oh

Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
In my mind and in my car
we can't rewind
we've gone to far
Pictures came
and broke your heart
look I'll play my VCR
You are a radio star
You are a radio star
Video killed the radio star

Quarter moon, always makes me think of you
Are you thinkin' of me too?
When you see it shine
It's kind of sad
But I'm smiling, imagine that
'Cause we're lucky to have had
what we had-even for a time
Didn't we set the nights on fire?
Did ever a flame burn any higher?
Wasn't it so sweet? Wasn't it?
Didn't we love?
It's okay, sometimes I just get this way
I can't forget you anyway, I wouldn't even try
I'd rather fall than never to have flown at all
It was heaven after all, if only for a time
Didn't we set the nights on fire?
Did ever a flame burn any higher?
Wasn't it so sweet? Wasn't it?
Didn't we love?
Didn't we have it all back then?
Will I feel that way again?
Didn't we set the nights on fire?
Did ever a flame burn any higher?
Wasn't it so sweet? Wasn't it?
Didn't we love?
Isn't it bittersweet, isn't it?
Didn't we love?

Please remember, our time together
The time was yours and mine
While we were wild and free
Please remember, please remember me
Goodbye, there's just no sadder word to say
And it's sad to walk away
With just the memories
Who's to know what might have been
We'll leave behind a life and time
I'll never know again
Please remember, please remember
I was there for you
And you were there for me
And remember, Please remember me
Please remember, please remember
I was there for you
And you were there for me
Please remember, our time together
The time was yours and mine
While we were wild and free
Then remember, please remember me
And how we laugh and how we smile
And how this heart was yours and mine
And how a dream was out of reach
I stood by you, you stood by me
We took each day and made it shine
We wrote our names across the sky
We ride so fast, we ride so free
And I knew that you had me
Please remember, please remember

The Devil went down to Georgia,
he was looking for a soul to steal.
He was in a bind, 'cause he was way behind,
he was willing to make a deal.
When he came across this young boy
sawing on a fiddle and playing it hot.
Well the Devil jumped up on a hickory stump,
said, "Boy let me tell you what.
I guess you didn't know it,
but I'm a fiddle player too,
Now if you care to make a dare,
well I'll make a bet with you.
Now you play pretty good fiddle boy,
but give the Devil his due,
I'll bet a fiddle of gold against your soul
'cause I think I'm better than you."
The boy said,
"My name's Jonny and it might be a sin,
But I'll take your bet, you're gonna regret,
'cause I'm the best there's ever been."
Jonny rosin up you bow
and play your fiddle hard.
'cause hell's broke loose in Georgia
and the Devil deals the cards.
And if you win you'll get this shiny
fiddle made of gold,
But if you loose the Devil gets your soul.
So the Devil opened up his case, said,
"I guess I'll start this show."
And fire flew from his finger tips
as he rosined up his bow.
When he drew that bow across the strings,
it made an evil hiss.
Then a band of demons joined in,
it sounded something like this.

So the Devil finished, Jonny said,
"Well you're pretty good old son.
Sit down in that chair out there,
let me show you how it's done."
He played Fire on the Mountain,
run, boys, run.
The Devil's in the house with the rising sun,
Chicken in the breadpan picking out dough,
Granny does your dog bite, "No, child, no."
- 간 주 중 -
So the Devil bowed his head
because he knew that he'd been beat.
He laid that golden fiddle
on the ground at Jonny's feet.
And Jonny said,
"Devil, just come on back
if you ever want to try again,
'cause I've told you once, you son of a gun,
I'm the best there's ever been."
He played Fire on the Mountain,
run, boys, run.
The Devil's in the house with the rising sun,
Chicken in the breadpan picking out dough
Granny does your dog bite, "No, child, no."

Quality I possess something I'm fresh
When my voice goes through the rest
Of the microphone that I am holdin'
Copywritten lyrics so they can't be stolen
If they are snap
Don't need the police to try to save them
Your voice will sink so
please stay off my back
Or I will attack and you don't want that
I've got the power
He's gonna break my heart
He's gonna break my heart of hearts
He's gonna break my heart
He's gonna break my heart of hearts
He's got the power oh-oh-oh-oh
I've got the power
He's gonna break my heart
He's gonna break my heart of hearts
He's gonna break my heart
He's gonna break my heart of hearts
He's got the power oh-oh-oh-oh

You burden me with your questions
You'd have me tell no lies
You're always asking what it's all about
But don't listen to my replies
You say to me I don't talk enough
But when I do I'm a fool
These times I've spent, I've realized
I'm going to shoot through
And leave you
The things, you say
Your purple prose just gives you away
The things, you say
You're unbelievable
You burden me with your problems
By telling me more than mine
I'm always so concerned
With the way you say
You've always go to stop
To think of us being one
Is more than I ever know
But this time, I realize
I'm going to shoot through
And leave you
The things, you say
Your purple prose just gives you away
The things, you say
You're unbelievable
- 간 주 중 -
Seemingly lastless, don't mean
You can ask us
Pushing down the relative
Bringing out your higher self
Think of the fine times
Pushing down the better few
Instead of bringing out the clues
To what the world and everything anger to
Brace yourself with the grace of ease
I know this world ain't what it seems.
You burden me with your questions
You'd have me tell no lies
You're always asking what it's all about
But don't listen to my replies
You say to me I don't talk enough
But when I do I'm a fool
These times I've spent, I've realized
I'm going to shoot through
And leave you
The things, you say
Your purple prose just gives you away
The things, you say
You're unbelievable
The things, you say
Your purple prose just gives you away
The things, you say
You're unbelievable

You're unbelievable

You take my hand
And you hold my heart
You stand by me
And I can touch the stars
I can see eternity
In your eyes
Now we're looking
For a tune forever
And as long as
We can go together
We can get there
We can fly
There's no dream
Too far away, there's
No hope to high
If we follow the feelings
That answers our prayers
And this love of destiny
As long as we believe
We can get there
There's no mistake
That we met like this
We sealed our fate
With our first kiss
Let the light in our hearts
Lead the way
To the paradise
We discovered
Holding on to each other
We can get there
We can fly
There's no dream
Too far away, there's
No hope too high
If we follow the feelings
That answers our prayers
And this love of destiny
As long as we believe
We can get there
I know, oh, Baby, baby
Ohh
Now we're looking
For a tune forever
And as long as
We can go together
To the paradise
We discovered
Holding on to each other
We can get there
We can fly
Oh There's no dream
Too far away, there's
No hope to high
If we follow the feelings
That answers our prayers
Gave me something
To believe
You and I were meant to be
Come inside my heart
You'll see
That's the place
That we'd be free
In this love of destiny
Darling you and me
We can get there
