There’s a still in the street outside your window You’re keepin’ secrets on your pillow Let me inside, no cause for alarm I promise tonight not to do no harm I promise you baby,I won't be no harm And we're caught up in the crossfire A heaven and hell And were searching for shelter Lay your body down... Watching your dress as you turn down the light I forget all about the storm outside Dark clouds roll their way over town Heartache and pain came pouring down like Chaos in the rain, yeah They're handing it out And we're caught up in the crossfire Heaven and hell And were searching for shelter Lay your body down... Tell the devil that he can go back from where he came His fire he airs all through their beating vein. And when the hardest part is over we'll be here And our dreams will break the boundaries of our fears Boundaries of our fears Lay your body down(6x) Next to mine....
Look back in silence The cradle of your whole life There in the distance Losing its greatest pride Nothing is easy, nothing is sacred, why? Where did the bow break? It happened before your time And there were people there Lovely as you’d ever care Tonight, baby, you can start again Laughing in the open air Have yourself another dream Tonight, baby, we can start again Only the young can break away, break away Lost when the wind blows, on your own Only the young can break away, break away Lost when the wind blows, on your own Mother, it’s cold here Father, thy will be done Thunder and lightning are crashing down They got me on the run Direct me to the sun Redemption, keep my covers clean tonight Baby, we can start again Only the young can break away, break away Lost when the wind blows, on your own Only the young can break away, break away Lost when the wind blows, on your own And the sun will shine again And the sun will shine again Are you looking for a sign? Or are you caught up in the lie? Only the young can break away, break away Lost when the wind blows, on your own Only the young can break away, break away Lost when the wind blows, on your own
You let me in to your life unaware that there was magic and fire in the night And back then I was just a little boy I made mistakes that caused you so much pain All I know is that I’m older now
Some people think that it’s best to refrain from the conventions of old-fashioned love Their hearts are filled with holes and emptiness They tell themselves that they’re too young to settle down Girl I promise you I’m older now
And this has been hard enough on you I know it’s been hard enough on me In telling myself that I can roll with the changes
And when the water gets high above your head Darling don’t you see, While this has been hard enough on you It’s been hard enough on me
I wasn’t looking when we built these walls When we spread my dreams at your feet Let’s not let times build the flood rise Before my thoughts begin to run I think I’m getting older now
And this has been hard enough on you I know it’s been hard enough on me In telling myself that I can roll with the changes
And when the water gets high above your head Darling don’t you see, While this has been hard enough on you It’s been hard enough on me
Can’t stand the thought of another,talking to you sweet my dear Where would I be tonight if you hadn’t held me here, in your arms?
And this has been hard enough on you I know it’s been hard enough on me In telling myself that I can’t roll with the changes
And when the water gets high above your head Darling don’t you see, While this has been hard enough on you
Is there anyone out there? Somewhere I can belong Man the city just ain't so kind tonight I need a place to take refuge See I been loving you blind And I guess that made it hard for me to find Now we were caught up in the middle of a worn out dream I knew we were in trouble but baby I almost screamed When I saw you dancing On the moon now I watched him spin you round and round Why did you roll your dice? Show your cards? Jilted lovers and broken hearts You're flying away, while I'm stuck here on the ground Is there anyone out there? Somewhere I can belong Man the city just ain't so kind, tonight And if I had my suspicions I kept them out of my heart Just wished I would of known right from the start That you'd be speaking in riddles and you'd never confide You know I knew we were in trouble but honey I almost cried When I saw you dancing On the moon now I watched him spin you round and round Why did you roll your dice? Show your cards? Jilted lovers and broken hearts You're out on the wind and I'm still waiting to be found. You did a fine job of hiding That crooked ace up your sleeve You doubled down my direction You kiss me on the cheek and leave I followed you through the darkness I followed you through the cold Woman I can tell you one thing You're gonna wish you could go back and fold Why did you roll your dice? Show your cards? Jilted lovers and broken hearts You're flying away, while I'm stuck here on the ground Why did you roll your dice? Show your cards? Jilted lovers and broken hearts You're out on the wind and I'm still waiting to be found. Will I ever win? Only time can tell You got to suffer to remember how well That are our ideals never really marched in time That's the bottom line Jilted lovers and broken hearts
Daddy, I'm not gonna tell you that I'm sorry, But there aint nothin you can do to change my mind. I'm not here to know the things I cannot do, We've seen the outcome of the Boy's Who Didn't Fly. That road outside that you've been taking home forever, That'll be same road that I'll take when I depart. Those charcoal veins that hold this chosen land together May twist & turn but somewhere deep there is a heart.
Playing with fire You know you're gonna hurt somebody tonight And you're out on a wire You know we're playing with fire
I see his calling as the channel of invention, I will not blush if others see it as a crime. However dangerous the road, however distant, These things won't compromise the will of the design. Ten thousand Demons hammer down with every footstep, Ten thousand Angels rush the wind against my back. The church of mine may not be recognised by steeple, That doesn't mean that I will walk without a God.
Oh well River of Truth, can you spare me a sip? The holy fountain of youth has been reduced to a drip. I've got this burning belief in Salvation and love It's not you make me naive, but if push comes to shove I will till this ground
You know you're gonna hurt somebody tonight Oh woah oh woah woah (Out on a wire)
I might not get there. This little town, this little house, They seem to be leaning in the wrong direction I'm not afraid of you no more.
Playing with fire You know you're gonna hurt somebody tonight And you're out on a wire You know we're playing with fire
Please don't tell me I can't make it It aint gonna do me any good And please don't offer me your modern method By fixing the carpets out of wood
From Nogales to Magdalena There are 60 miles of sacred road And the promise is made to those who venture San Francisco lift your load
In the land of old Sonora A shallow river valley cries The summer left her without forgiveness It's mirrored in her children's eyes
Prodigle sons and wayward daughters Carry mandalas that they made He delivered from the debts of darkness And born again by candlelight And born again my candlelight
Blisters on my feet Wooden rosary I fell them in my pocket as I ran
A bullet in the night A feather of his life San Francisco do you understand
Tell them that I've made the journey And tell them that my heart is true Not like his blessing or forgiveness Before the angels send it through
And I will know that I am clean know And I will dance and the band will play And the old
And if I should fall to temptation Will I return to evil throws From Nogales to Magdalena As a two time beggar I will go And I know I can't be forgiven the broken heart of Mexico
There’s a still in the street outside your window You’re keepin’ secrets on your pillow Let me inside, no cause for alarm I promise tonight not to do no harm I promise you baby,I won't be no harm And we're caught up in the crossfire A heaven and hell And were searching for shelter Lay your body down... Watching your dress as you turn down the light I forget all about the storm outside Dark clouds roll their way over town Heartache and pain came pouring down like Chaos in the rain, yeah They're handing it out And we're caught up in the crossfire Heaven and hell And were searching for shelter Lay your body down...

When the lights go down in the city, getting real low Settling in my room, I'm unnoticed When the still comes in through my window, letting me go I feel a calm, come over me, on the floor
On the floor Where the rats all come away clean There on the floor Where the children all stomped and screamed straight out the door Well I find myself on my knees Begging please
When the lights go down in the city and everyone goes, to their room Walking the trail to dreamland When the lights go down in the city, something is roaring I find myself waiting to believe
On the floor Where the mice call shots in the corner that's where I'll be When the crickets come home and sing their symphony Well I find myself on my knees Begging please
On the floor Facing the things I've done here on the floor Where the years have gathered and run that's where I'll be And I find myself on my knees Begging please
Seek out the light between Time and confusion glowing up ahead Instead of slipping through You bit off more, much more than you could chew
You could not Swallow It No baby you're not ready, slow down And take the time to evolve You could not Swallow It No baby you're not ready, slow down
We had a lot to learn Table manners and grace, how to wait your turn when Time came to clear your slate You had too much, had too much on your plate
You could not Swallow It No baby you're not ready, slow down And take the time to evolve You could not Swallow It No baby you're not ready, slow down
Take your medicine and crawl before you walk Think it through before you open you open your mouth to talk Be an advocate of joy Find your little heart's desire and
Follow it Whoa baby you're not ready, slow down And take the time to evolve You could not Swallow It No baby you're not ready, slow down
(Baby you're not ready! )
You could not Swallow It No baby you're not ready, slow down And take the time to evolve You could not Swallow It No baby you're not ready, now
(Slow down! )
No, no, no, no!
Don't be afraid, this is your year It's gonna be alright, you're a performer Just take your time, but not too much time
Me and Valentina went down to the chapel but the gates were shut I had my vows in my pocket and a gold plated ring for my honey love We headed down Tropicana to the corner with a late night restaurant We sat across from each other when I looked in her eyes there was something gone
Was it something that I said or did? Was it something that I should have kept hid If you leave me hanging I don't know what I'll do It doesn't matter who's wrong or right In the clear of a blue moonlight You got me on my knees Valentina this is not like you
I got a job at the nugget and I saved a thousand dollars for a brand new start She said: I didn't wanna do it but I did it cuz I didn't want to break your heart The waiter whispered when he said we had to take the conversation to the parking lot Please baby, please Valentina, baby you're the only thing I got
Was it something that I said or did? Was it something that I should have kept hid If you leave me hanging I don't know what I'll do It doesn't matter who's wrong or right In the clear of a blue moonlight You got me on my knees Valentina this is not like you
I hear church bells ringing in my head and I'd take them everywhere I'd go Valentina met a dealer and I heard they had a baby five months ago
Was it something that I said or did? Was it something that I should have kept hid If you leave me hanging I don't know what I'll do It doesn't matter who's wrong or right In the clear of a blue moonlight You got me on my knees Valentina don't say it's true This is not like you
I did my best to notice When the call came down the line Up to the platform of surrender I was brought but I was kind And sometimes I get nervous When I see an open door Close your eyes Clear your heart... Cut the cord
Are we human? Or are we dancer? My sign is vital My hands are cold And I'm on my knees Looking for the answer Are we human? Or are we dancer?
Pay my respects to grace and virtue Send my condolences to good Give my regards to soul and romance, They always did the best they could And so long to devotion You taught me everything I know Wave goodbye Wish me well.. You've got to let me go
Are we human? Or are we dancer? My sign is vital My hands are cold And I'm on my knees Looking for the answer Are we human? Or are we dancer?
Will your system be alright When you dream of home tonight? There is no message we're receiving Let me know is your heart still beating
Are we human? Or are we dancer? My sign is vital My hands are cold And I'm on my knees Looking for the answer
You've got to let me know
Are we human? Or are we dancer? My sign is vital My hands are cold And I'm on my knees Looking for the answer Are we human Or are we dancer?

Michael plays with stars Soul Sister won't you take a ride in his car Late to call When you wanted to be all Baby don't be so shy Rock children hold your heads up high In the night while I try And tell the ballad of Valentine
You got it bad, but you know it's true
I caught up with a friend in Dallas We took a trip to New Orleans Those black-eyed ladies Won't say they're sorry
We finally caught a train to Memphis Where everybody talks the same Those blue suede babies All know my name
And I said hold tight Can't you see it's hurting me But I've got the buzz Like Marlon Brando Michael Valentine, can't we unite?
We ended up in North Dakota Although my heart's in Mexico My ... (?) All went to Soho
With your new suit, and your black tie Hold on, you're just a gambling man, all proper like I broke to the right and I caught your eye Shut your mouth and wave goodbye Tonight, I ain't gonna let you rain on this parade
And I said hold tight Can't you see it's hurting me But I've got the buzz Like Marlon Brando Straight faced with misery tonight
And I will not lie when I say I ain't cold no more But I've got the buzz Like Greta Garbo Walking forwards in the sun And I've got a cold tale left to write
She's got her halo and wings Hidden under his eyes But she's an angel for sure She just can't stop telling lies But it's too late for his love Already caught in a trap His angel's kiss was a joke And she is not coming back
Because heaven sends and heaven takes Crashing cars in his brain Keep him tied up to a dream And only she can set him free And then he says to me
Kill me now, kill me now, kill me now, kill me now Kill me now, kill me now, kill me now, kill me now
Yeah she's got a criminal mind He's got a reason to pray His life is under the gun He's got to hold every day
Now he just wants to wake up Yeah, just to prove it's a dream Cause she's an angel for sure But that remains to be seen
Because heaven sends and heaven takes Crashing cars in his brain Keep him tied up to a dream And only she can set him free And then he says to me
Kill me now, kill me now, kill me now, kill me now Kill me now, kill me now, kill me now, kill me now
Stupid on the streets of London James Dean in the rain Without her it's not the same The same, the same, but it's alright
Because heaven sends and heaven takes Crashing cars in his brain Keep him tied up to a dream And only she can set him free And then he says to me
Kill me now, kill me now, kill me now, kill me now Kill me now, kill me now, kill me now, kill me now Again and again
