Blood Red Roses (Goalby)
Heavens above - what on earth has this come to What have I done - what can I do now to show you There's still a chance if you're ready to make up It's not too late, cause I'm not ready to break up
I try to call, but you don't hear at all
I'm sending roses I'm sending blood red roses This burning in my heart is tearing me apart I'm sending roses I'm sending blood red roses You've got to understand that's my heart in your hand
No... Don't walk away - we can get this heart mended Or am I the fool - and has this love just ended
I tried to call, but you don't hear at all
I'm sending roses I'm sending blood red roses This burning in my heart is tearing me apart I'm sending roses I'm sending blood red roses
I gotta keep on trying To stop this love from dying
You've got to understand That my heart is in your hand
Rich Kid (Bolder)
She's a rich kid, she wears diamond rings Knows how to walk, knows everything About love, she's not too sure... What she's looking for Fresh from the woods, out on the street She's looking good, looking so neat She don't know if she should 'Cos she don't know if she's bad or good She don't care if it hurts her father She don't care if it breaks her mother She don't care anymore 'Cos she just wants what she's never had before
All she wants is love - she's ready She wants love and she's gonna get it All she needs is love - she's gotta have it Someone to love
All she wants is love - she's ready Gotta have love, she'll get it All she needs is love, she's never had it Someone to love
She was a school boy's dream, a high school queen She had it all when she was sixteen Stayed away from boys 'cos she thought she'd get hurt Why did she listen to her mother's words Couldn't go out - had to stay home How she hated being on her own She needs love like everybody else So now she's gonna get some for herself
She don't care if it hurts her father She don't care if it breaks her mother She don't care anymore 'Cos she just wants what she's never had before
Lifeline (Roddy, Medica, Frederikson, Haselden)
Well I'm not superstitious But there's something going on inside Could be friendly could be vicious And there isn't any place to hide It's my imagination A blessing or a curse No I can't ignore it For better or for worse It wakes me when I'm sleeping A thief that takes my breath away
And I find myself reaching For a lifeline Throw me a lifeline And bring me back this time I need a lifeline Throw me a lifeline I'm going down for the last time
Sometimes I can't control it Sometimes it isn't there at all Sometimes I try to roll it And wind up staring at the wall My imagination I love the games it plays I get in so deep That I get lost for days and days It sometimes leaves me shakin' Standing in the dark alone And I find myself reaching
Voice On My TV (Box, Lanzon)
It's a familiar voice Sometimes I wonder if I have a choice You give it everything You're selling God but am I listening
I hear you've seen the light Your message comes to me by satellite You say I must believe I say it's just another way to deceive
If my salvation has anything to do With your empty promises and what you think is true Well here's my donation, if it's all the same to you
I am the voice on your TV But I am one and I am free Always to say what I believe I know you're only a voice on my TV
The number on the screen Will help me get to heaven, so it would seem The money flows and flows And no one cares enough to know where it goes
Look at all the millions that you've taken for a ride With the warmest words, and the coldest heart inside And how much longer can I listen to... your lies
What are all credit card believers gonna say When they hear about the scandals And the lovers that you pay And all about the meetings in your secret hideaway
I am the voice on your TV But I am one and I am free Always to say what I believe
I can save you You're just a voice on my TV Your power's strong but I am free Always to say what I believe
This is your conscience speaking
Cry Freedom (Box, Lanzon)
She told me the story I listened with my eyes closed So sad, but so true She whispered softly, I asked her why she did so She knew that I knew She was a skater, the ice was her second home The country's finest, everyone could see She had a plan to break across the border Instead of waiting for the powers that be
Cry freedom, sweet freedom And tell the whole world to get ready Cry freedom, sweet freedom Now tell the whole world that we're ready
She said goodnight, and just as I was leaving Black car came into view And waiting there, they could hear me breathing They knew that I knew Cry freedom...
Insane questions, they asked me what did I know So strange, they let me go The more they try, the stronger our love grows I know that you know Cry freedom...
Bad Bad Man (Lanzon)
In this supermarket city Among the native smiles You have to pay for attention And do the best you can There's a raging silence And it's charged with action Got no time for weakness 'Cos I'm a bad bad man
Down the streets of darkness Where they know my name Lies a force of evil And a destructive plan There's no time for questions When you run into danger Don't get too close to me 'Cos I'm a bad bad man
I'm working for the LA division To stop the inner city collision I'm bringing law and order To the twenty-first century
I don't care for politics You can keep your point of view You're better off without it I got my own bad plan
A tough cop has a lonely existence A reputation of the highest resistance A mean runner bringing order To the twenty-first century
I don't believe in passion Don't believe in feelings I take peace from the wicked Run and hide while you can I got no time for small talk Got no time for off-the-wall talk Don't care who I tread on 'Cos I'm a bad bad man Bad bad man...
More Fool You (More Fool Me) (Box, Lanzon)
I held the rope so tightly As she climbed down from her room We said we'd make our getaway Underneath the moon I always will remember the night that we left home And the words of warning ringing in my ears
More fool you, more fool me
New job, new friends and a family In a house on the sunny side We played on the wheel of fortune But it was me that took the ride It didn't work between us I had to give it all away And in the end I knew it had to be
More for you - more fool me More for you - more fool me
If I've told you once Then I've told you twice But I'll tell you once again Now she's taken away most everything And I've lost my only friend
When The War Is Over (Prestwich) When the war is over, got to get away Pack my bags to no place in no time no day You and I we used each other's shoulder Still so young, but somehow so much older How can I go home and not get blown away
Ain't nobody gonna steal this heart away Ain't nobody gonna steal this heart away
When the war is over, got to start again Try to hold a trace of what it was back then You and I, we shared each other's stories How can I go home and not get blown away
You and I had our sights set on something Hope this doesn't mean our days are numbered I've got plans for more than ordered days All around is chaos and madness Cannot feel you're nothing more than sadness Only choice, to face it the best I can
When the war is over, got to start again Try to hold a trace of what it was back then You and I, we shared each other's stories But just to think I'm lost in all its glories How can I go home and not get blown away
Rough Justice (Box, Lanzon, Bolder, Shaw)
The gates have opened, now I'm a free man My time is over, I need a new plan But I've had no loving for a year and a day My lady's waiting, got a taste for her wine She's wearing money, but none of it's mine She's been surviving while I've been wasting away
Back in my room, it ain't quite the same You can't hide it, I'm onto your game
Rough Justice, there's no disguise Losing my lover And I can tell by the look in your eyes Rough Justice, I've had my share Looking for cover I've done my time, but I'm still running scared Rough Justice, coming down on me Hand on my shoulder Long arm of the law never setting me free Rough Justice, I bide my time
Back in action, riding the crest Putting all that I learned to the test No complications, taking it day by day Freedom of movement, freedom of choice Free to be right back here with the boys Ready to listen, but you've got nothing to say Back in my room, it ain't quite the same Just can't help it I'm part of your game
Hold Your Head Up (Argent, White)
And if it's bad Don't let it get you down - you can take it And if it hurts Don't let them see you cry - you can make it
Hold your head up woman Hold your head up woman Hold your head up woman Hold your head up high
And if they stare Just let them burn their eyes on you moving And if they shout Don't let it change a thing that you're doing
Hold your head up woman Hold your head up woman Hold your head up woman Hold your head up high
Miracle Child She got me to walk on water I did what she said She got me to steal the moonlight Put it over her head And after I moved the mountain Which stood in the way The answer was in the question She asked me if I wanted to stay
All of my friends said it wouldn't last I'd be another there in her past But I disagree 'cause I can't say say no, no, no, no
Save me, she's so hungry Make a man do anything I know, she gets hungry Gets away like an innocent child Save me, she's so hungry Has the appetite to everything I know, she's just hungry She's got the mind of a miracle child
And when I changed the seasons And water to wine I took all the wordly problems And got the peace in our time And after I built the temple She wanted so bad I took her ?? on Sunday To look at everything she had
I could say no, but I always do Someone outside put me comin' through And I can't stop her I can't say no, no, no, no
She's so hungry She gets hungry ... |
