Lose Control

I can't stop- can't stop thinking
About you at all
I called you up to come on round tonight
You wouldn't give a straight answer
But you wouldn't say no
Even though you're going with him

Here comes the night
Lead me on
In your veins
Warm inside
Heart beats fast
Lights are low
I want you
Let it go

You arrive with cool in your eyes
And explain to me
How he makes you feel inside
So safe, secure
Later on as the night is falling
You bring me on with violent words
Desire and being young

Here comes the night
Lead me on
In your veins
Warm inside
Heart beats fast
Lights are low
I want you
Let it go

Here comes the night- it is coming on
The lights are low and out records on
Inside your veins and you lead me on
Here comes the night- it is coming on

Goldfinger

Move closer, set my mind on fire
Taking over, the world seems so alive
The world seems so alive

She slips into the night, and she is gone
Gone to settle the score, gone into the town
Rain shining in her eyes
Her brother started school
Again today, a thought to pass the time
To occupy my mind, while I'm waiting for her

Down in the basement, listening to the rain
Thinking things over, I think it over again
I think it over again

She slips into the night, and she was gone
Gone to settle the score, gone into the town
Rain shining in her eyes
Her brother started school
Again today, a thought to pass the time
To occupy my mind, while I'm waiting for her

I'm riding it down, listen to the rain
She'll be here soon, I lie back and drift away
I lie back and drift away

She slips into the night, and she was gone
Gone to settle the score, gone into the town
Rain shining in her eyes
Her brother started school
Again today, a thought to pass the time
To occupy my mind, while I'm waiting for her

I'm feeling so alive, feeling so real
On a stormy night, the rain is coming down
Rain like never before
I've got some records on, some bottles of wine
On a stormy night, the rain is lashing down
And I'm waiting for her

Girl From Mars

Do you remember the time I knew a Girl From Mars
I don't know if you knew that
Oh we'd stay up late playing cards
Henri Winterman Cigars
Though she never told me her name
I still love you, Girl From Mars

Sitting in our dreamy days by the water's edge
On a cool summer's night
Fireflies and the stars in the sky
Gentle glowing light
From your cigarette
The breeze blowing softly on my face
Reminds me of something else
Something that in my memory has been replaced
Suddenly all comes back
And as I look to the stars

I remember the time I knew a Girl From Mars
I don't know if you knew that
Oh we'd stay up late playing cards
Henri Winterman Cigars
Though she never told me her name
I still love you, Girl From Mars

Surging through the darkness over the moonlight strand
Electricity in the air
Twisting all through the night on the terrace
Now that summer's here
I know that you are almost in love with me
I can see it in your eyes
Strange light shimmering over the sea tonight
And it almost blows my mind
And as I look to the stars

I remember the time I knew a Girl From Mars
I don't know if you knew that
Oh we'd stay up late playing cards
Henri Winterman Cigars
Though she never told me her name
I still love you, Girl From Mars

Today I sleep in the chair by the window
It felt as if you'd returned
I thought that you were standing over me
When I woke there was no-one there
I still love you, Girl From
Mars

Do you remember the time I knew a Girl From Mars
I don't know if you knew that
Oh we'd stay up late playing cards
Henri Winterman Cigars
Though she never told me her name

Do you remember the time I knew a Girl From Mars
I don't know if you knew that
Oh we'd stay up late playing cards
Henri Winterman Cigars
And I still dream of you
I still love you, Girl From Mars

I'd Give You Anything

The days seem the same and you feel like
You are losing your mind
I tasted the danger and went south of
Heaven tonight
I didn't mind she wasn't into letting go
I didn't mind 'cos she still was
Nothing like you

How can you lose when it's waiting for you
You should come on when
It's there for the taking
It's waiting for you

The days seem the same and you feel like
You are losing your mind
I tasted the danger and went south of
Heaven tonight
I want to wake up in the morning
Feeling fine
Just like you I want to wake up
Feeling alright

How can you lose when it's waiting for you
You should come on when
It's there for the taking
It's waiting for you

Gone The Dream

At the end of the day when all had been done
And all had been bad
In the kitchen laughing with you
Before I went to bed
My face in the light illuminated
Untroubled and safe
As your face is shining upon me
A love that would never cease

Went out where the cold wind blows
It rocks my childhood sleep
And up in the starry skies
And further out to sea
Late in time when it will come
I see it in my dreams
At night with the cold wind blowing
At night with the cold wind blowing outside

Gone the dream, it's all faded now
Gone the dream, it's all faded now
Take me home

Hours pass ticking slowly
Lying wide awake
All across the land the lights are out
Under an open sky
I fell for you and everybody
Dreaming in your beds
I'm feeling lost, there is nothing
Nothing more than this

Going out where the cold wind blows
It rocks my childhood sleep
And up in the starry skies
And further out to sea
Late in time when it will come
I see it in my dreams
At night with the cold wind blowing
At night with the cold wind blowing

Kung Fu

Kung Fu do what you do to me
I haven't been the same since my teenage lobotomy
Full on, I moved to Hong Kong
With Bruce Lee's brother and Johnny Wong

I think it's strange
He's friends with Fu Manchu
And he thinks he knows you
Uh uh uh uh uh oh
Oh Daniel San made in Taiwan
Come on Jackie Chan
Uh uh uh uh uh oh

Last night Jackie Chan came around
I played pool with him and we hung out
Mr. Miagi and the X-men
Called in for a while as well

I think it's strange
He's friends with Fu Manchu
And he thinks he knows you
Uh uh uh uh uh oh
Oh Daniel San made in Taiwan
Come on Jackie Chan
Uh uh uh uh uh oh

Kung Fu do what you do to me
I can't live without my Kung Fu movies
'Shanghei Killers' and 'Deadly Road'
My life was ruined when the Green Dragon closed

Oh I think it's strange
He's friends with Fu Manchu
And he thinks he knows you
Uh uh uh uh uh oh
Oh Daniel San made in Taiwan
Come on Jackie Chan
Uh uh uh uh uh oh

I think it's strange
He's friends with Fu Manchu
And he's in love with you
Uh uh uh uh uh oh
Oh Daniel San made in Taiwan
Come on Jackie Chan
Uh uh uh uh uh oh

Oh Yeah

Oh yeah she was taking me over
Oh yeah it was the start of the summer

On warm June evenings
She would come to my house
Still in her school skirt
And her summer blouse
Talking too long as the night came on
It was the best time of my life
Her bee stung lips
Kisses sweeter than wine
The things she whispered
With breathless sighs
The summer air was soft and warm
Her eyes were making silent demands
As her hair came undone in my hands

Oh yeah she was taking me over
Oh yeah it was the start of the summer

Driving her home after midnight
I felt so good everything was alright
Her thoughts seemed so lost in the night sky
I remember everything
I don't know why these things ever send
I sometimes wish it was that summer again
I still see her in my sleep
And hear the sighing of the summer wind
Still I don't regret one thing

Oh yeah she was taking me over
Oh yeah it was the start of the summer

Oh yeah she was taking me over
Oh yeah it was the start of the summer
It felt just like it was the start of forever
Oh yeah it was the start of the summer

Let It Flow

Here she comes walking across the sand
She'll never know how she blows my mind
She's there with the chemicals in my brain
Spinning softly round my head
I'm gonna give in, I'll never change my mind
I feel it now, tonight is the night
And why should I try to resist
When it's calling out to me
Calling out to me

She's blowing my mind
She's always blowing my mind
She's blowing my mind
She's always on my mind

The autumn and the winter have been and gone
Half the time I never knew what was wrong
I never noticed I was feeling down
It just went day by day
She'll never know how she turned it round
She'll never know how she blows my mind
It was a long time coming to me
I'm gonna outshine every star
She's gonna make it through

She's blowing my mind
She's always blowing my mind
Look in my eyes
She's always on my mind

I won't be able to help myself
Falling in love with her
I have all the time in the world
The answer was always there
Why should I try - try to resist
When it's calling out to me
She can take my heart or pay the price
She's the sweetest thing I've ever known

Here she comes walking across the sand
She'll never know how she blows my mind
She's there with the chemicals in my brain
Spining softly round my head
I'm gonna give in, I'll never change my mind
I feel it now, tonight is the night
And why should I try to resist
When it's calling out to me
Calling out to me

She's blowing my mind
She's always blowing my mind

Innocent Smile

Tripping round the town
When the sun comes down
Flying with your friends
With the stars alive
Tripping around the town
When the sun comes down
Flying with your friends
With the stars alive
Running on a high from the spirit inside
Taking on the world with an innocent smile
Running on a high from the spirit inside
Taking on the world with an innocent smile

Something knocked me down
And I fell far to the ground
I lost it all in one night
Just wandering around

Vandalism's fun when there's nothing to do
Break a few things say it wasn't you
Vandalism's fun when there's nothing to do
Break a few things say it wasn't you
Let it all kick in, take you for a ride
Strapped to a rocket heading for the sky
Let it all kick in, take you for a ride
Strapped to a rocket heading for the sky

Something knocked me down
And I fell far to the ground
I lost it all in one night
Just wandering around

That's when I got the shiver
That reawoke my mind
Swinging from a chandelier
Hanging from the sky
Hanging from the sky

Running on a high from the spirit inside
Taking on the world with an innocent smile
Running on a high from the spirit inside
Taking on the world with an innocent smile

Angel Interceptor

I stayed in last night
I wasn't feeling alright
I knew it couldn't last
I started thinking of you
And I wished we could be dancing in the darkness

Oh, it's good to know
Tomorrow you are coming home
(I won't be so alone)
I feel heaven in you, don't you know
I feel heaven in you, don't you know I feel heaven in you
Oh, it's true
I can't let go
I miss you, oh you know

Sitting alone
With the TV on
I fell asleep
I was hoping you'd call
And I dreamed we could be dancing in the darkness

Oh, it's good to know
Tomorrow you are coming home
(I won't be so alone)
I feel heaven in you, don't you know
I feel heaven in you, don't you know
I feel heaven in you
Oh it's true, I can't let go
I miss you oh you know

Angel Interceptor - Apollo 21 - Uri Gagarin
Flew into the sun
The angels in heaven look down
Where he lay
Oh tomorrow you are coming home
I feel heaven in you, don't you know
I feel heaven in you, don't you know
I feel heaven in you
Oh it's true, I can't let go
I miss you oh you know

Lost In You

Lying wide awake under strange skies
Wanting to call you, but it is late at night
And you're far away, but you are always on my mind

I feel like I'm on fire, nothing I can do
I'm troubled with doubt, though it know its not true

And it's times like these when I am dying to speak to you
Dying to get through, I'm dying to speak to you
Dying to get through, I'm dying to speak to you.

Staring at the wall, I sink inside
I think about it all, I get caught up in my life
I can't think straight, because it's tearing up my mind

I feel like I'm on fire, nothing I can do
I'm troubled with doubt, though I know it is not true

And it's times like these when I am dying to speak to you
Dying to get through, dying to get through

The more that I think how I need you
The more that I think, the more it seems true
And now it means more that I ever meant it to
Ever meant it to

Lying wide awake under strange skies
Wanting to call you, but it is late at night
And you're far away, but you are always on my mind

You are always on my mind
You are always on my mind
You are always on my mind
You are always on my mind
You are always on my mind
You are always on my mind

Darkside Lightside

Remembering the warm summer lights
When everything is gonna turn out right
When all the answers lie behind your eyes
And everything's gonna turn out right

All I want it to see you smile
All I want it to see you smile

The answers always are waiting there
You give me feelings that I used to get
And remember things that I had forgotten
Long ago

Remembering the warm summer lights
When everything is gonna turn out right
When all the answers lie behind your eyes
And everything's gonna turn out right

All I want it to see you smile
All I want it to see you smile

The answers always are waiting there
You give me feelings that I used to get
And remember things that I had forgotten
I get the feelings I used to get
And remember things that I had forgotten
Long ago
