Anytime I need to see your face, I don't need to try and explain: Come stand a little bit closer Ooh, I want you I'm the kind of person Conversation has a time and a place Come stand a little bit closer Ooh, I want you Anytime I need to see your face, I don't need to try and explain: Ooh, I want you
She's taking her time making up the reasons I would fly to the moon and back if you'll be... She can't remember a time when she felt needed I would fly to the moon and back if you'll be...
I'll be your dream I'll be your wish A new beginning I want to stand with you on a mountain And when the stars are shining brightly in the velvet sky, I want to stand with you on a mountain You don't have to close your eyes I'll be your dream I'll be your wish I want to stand with you on a mountain You know every once and a while Would you be scared? Well, I bet He'd be cool What would He wear? Lord I need your protection spend some time in my direction
You know every once and a while I bet He'd be a star I bet my speeder bike He'd turn his back on all of that
Lord I need your protection spend some time in my direction
Well some people have just got it
Well you know everytime I look at that expression printed on the page I want your arms all around me, Like cold chardonnay chilled for a day, All around me I want you. So slide into your Jaguar, or Porsche baby, there you are. I never thought I'd change my opinion again
So break me, shake me, hate me, take me over
So your the kind that deals with the games in the mind
Just break me, shake me, hate me, take me over
She says, "I can help you, but what do you say?"
Break me, shake me, hate me, take me over
Listen, baby
Break me, shake me, hate me, take me, make me
The moonlight
In the moonlight
You're never safe 'till you see the dawn
Carry on, keep romancing There's a magic only two can tell In the moonlight Moving on...
Well I'd like to take you as I find you
Universe inside of your heart
Put time in a capsule
Universe inside your heart
But let me tell you that, this time,
You will only end up lost in loneliness
Universe inside your heart
I wait in the darkness,
Just a twist in time ...and you could be mine
A hand brushes by my love.
Just a twist in time ...and you could be mine
Won't you leave me in the darkness
And we stare each other down like victims in the grind
Is love really the tragedy the way you might describe?
Your kisses are like pearls, so different and so rare
All these mixed emotions
We twist and turn where angels burn
All these mixed emotions
If there's a way that you could be everything you want to be,
I've got a dream to take you over
You want to give ecstasy delivered with certainty
If there's a way to infiltrate you
Let your body move into the doorway
Contemplate jealousy intermixed with urgency
If there's a way to infiltrate you
Let your body move into the doorway
I'm gonna take you
Common sense is a game many people don't like to play
I've got a dream to take you over
Let your body move into the doorway
If there's a way that you could be everything you want to be,
We stumble in a tangled web, decaying friendships almost dead
So take all this noise into your brain and send it back again
Time manipulates your heart, preconception torn apart
So take all this noise into your brain and send it back again
Manipulation. Fabrication. Conversation. Annihilation
You could resurrect a thousand words to deceive
In Santa Monica, in the wintertime, the lazy streets so undemanding
But on the telephone line I am anyone, I am anything I want to be.
In Santa Monica, all the people got modern names like Jake or Mandy
But on the telephone line I am anyone,
Well don't you know I need a little indulgence?
Don't go making all these promises you know you cannot keep
So let you body move a little bit closer
Don't go making all these promises you know you cannot keep
Well, I'm only hanging on for what goes down
Well don't go making all these promises you know you cannot keep
I'd never let you down when you're in a fix
You get your kicks from the ghost of a memory
But memories fade
But you're so wrapped up in her you don't see straight
This thing you're using is worse then a photograph
But memories fade
She doesn't love you anymore
But memories fade
'Cos Woman I need your guiding hand
Whenever I feel like giving up
'Cos Woman I need your guiding hand
There's never been a boy who's luckier
Cos Woman I need your guiding hand
And if there's a storm that's close at hand
Whenever I feel like just giving up
Cos woman I need it
A fever that burns in my heart
Cos Woman I need your guiding hand
I want to move in time with you For this one time, one time
I want to feel your hand in mine
I want to move in time with you
I feel the danger, the separation
I want to move in time with you
I want to move in time with you
Get me through the heart of the freeway
Love can move you take you deeper every time
Get me to the heart of the subway Love can move you take you deeper every time
And I breathe the love you've given That love can move you Love can move you take you deeper every timeI Want You
I just close my eyes
And I am taken to a place
Where your crystal mind
And magenta feelings take up shelter
In the base of my spine
Sweet like a chic-a-cherry cola
I just hold on tight
And if it happens again,
I might move so slightly
To the arms and lips
And the face of the human cannonball
That I need to, I want to
Breathe in and get a bit higher
You'll never know what hit you
When I get to you
I don't know if I need you
But, ooh, I'd die to find out
Ooh, I want you
I don't know if I need you
But, ooh, I'd die to find out
Who endorses a deep commitment
Getting comfy, getting perfect
Is what I live for
But a look, then a smell of perfume
It's like I'm down on the floor
And I don't know what I'm in for
In the interaction of a lover and a mate,
But the time of talking
Using symbols, using words
Can be likened to a deep sea diver
Who is swimming with a raincoat
Breathe in and get a bit higher
You'll never know what hit you
When I get to you
I don't know if I need you
But, ooh, I'd die to find out
Ooh, I want you
I don't know if I need you
But, ooh, I'd die to find out
I just close my eyes
And I am taken to a place where
your crystal mind and
Magenta feelings take up shelter
In the base of my spine
Sweet like a chic-a-cherry cola
I just hold on tight
And if it happens again,
I might move so slightly
To the arms and the lips and
the face of the human cannonball
That I need to, I want to
I don't know if I need you
But, ooh, I'd die to find out
Ooh, I want you
I don't know if I need you
But, ooh, I'd die to find out
So can we find out?
Back to the top
To The Moon And Back
To justify all the hurt inside
Guess she knows from the smiles
And the look in their eyes
Everyone's got a theory about the bitter one
They're saying, "Mamma never loved her much"
And "Daddy never keeps in touch
That's why she shies away
From human affection"
But somewhere in a private place
She packs her bags for outer space
And now she's waiting for the right kind of pilot to come
And she'll say to him
If you'll be my baby
Got a ticket for a world where we belong
So would you be my baby?
If love was red then she was colour blind
All her friend they've been tried for treason
And crimes that were never defined
She's saying, "Love is like a barren place,
And reaching out for human faith
Is like a journey I just don't have a map for"
So baby's gonna take a dive and
Push the shift to overdrive
Send a signal that she's hanging
All her hopes on the stars
What a pleasant dream
If you'll be my baby
Got a ticket for a world where we belong
So would you be my baby?
Back to the topTruly, Madly, Deeply
I'll be your fantasy
I'll be your hope I'll be your love
Be everything that you need
I'll love you more with every breath
Truly, madly, deeply do
I will be strong I will be faithful 'cause I'm counting on
A reason for living
A deeper meaning
I want to bathe with you in the sea
I want to lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me
I'll make a wish to send it to heaven
Then make you want to cry
The tears of joy for all the pleasure in the certainty
That we're surrounded by the comfort and protection of
The highest powers
In lonely hours
The tears devour you
I want to bathe with you in the sea
I want to lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me
Oh can you see it baby?
'Cause its standing right here before you
All that you need will surely come
I'll be your fantasy
I'll be you hope I'll be your love
Be everything that you need
I'll love you more with every breath
Truly, madly deeply do
I want to bathe with you in the sea
I want to lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me

I'll Bet He Was Cool
I shoot the breeze I spend my time
I talk about silly things
I like to talk about Jesus Christ
Cos I wonder what would happen if He passed you by
Would you believe in Him?
Would you bust your asses to get Him institutionalised?
I bet He'd be damn good looking
I bet that He'd smelt divine
I'm not talking about Calvin Klein's Obsession
Just one of those people smell good all the time
There's no reason why
Would He wear Tommy Hilfiger?
Or prefer Urban Outfitted?
I don't think so
Well, I bet He'd like Gaultier
But you'd never find Him in it
I bet He'd like Gaultier.
I shoot the breeze I spend my time
I talk about silly things
And tonight I'd like to talk to you about Jesus Christ
'Cos I wonder how we'd deal if He just passed you by
I bet my Star Wars figures He would be a movie star
A Quentin Tarantino next-big-thing
Prima donna, then he'd appear on Opera
You know what? I don't think so
But could you imagine him hanging Piccadilly Circus
Time Square, The Walk of Fame
At Christies He could easily become a regular
D'you know what? I don't think so
You know like standing next to Elvis Presley
Well then multiply that feeling by 1 million
And you know what I'm talking about
Coz I'll bet He was cool
Man I bet that cat was so dammed good looking, baby!

All Around Me
I think I hear you,
Whispering the magic and the compliments I need so badly
So baby come on, yeah, so baby come on
Now I've been running circles around the notion that you'd find me baby,
One day maybe.
But all the physic powers of suggestion I've been sending your way,
So can't you hear me say?
I want your face, yeah, all around me,
I want your perfume, all around me,
I like the way you move,
And do the funky groove.
All around me I want you.
All around me I need you.

So can't you hear me say?
I want your arms all around me,
I want your face, yeah, all around me,
I want your perfume, all around me,
I like the way you move,
And do the funky groove.
Your smooth and crisp and on display.
Like Cartier, Armani, like TAG, Gucci, Versace.
In the middle of the night you're a kiss so long.
You're the only good thing when all is wrong.
You're a magic time reversal clock.
You're the fries on the side with a cherry on top.
You're sleek, velvet, gold lame, patent leather, enchante.
You're a legend, you're a glamour queen.
God I'm running out of words but you know what I mean...
All around me I need you.
All around me I want you,
So can't you hear me say?
I want your arms all around me,
I want your face, yeah, all around me,

Well chop chop darling au revoir
Pick up your things you're a star
Back to the topBreak Me Shake Me
But you moved me in a way that I've never known
You moved me in a way that I've never known
But straight away you just moved into position again
You abused me in a way that I've never known
You abused me in a way that I've never known
When the madness stops then you will be alone
Just break me, shake me, hate me, take me over
When the madness stops then you will be alone
Well you confuse me in a way that I've never known
You confuse me in a way that I've never known
So break me shake me hate me take me over
When the madness stops then you will be alone
When the madness stops then you will be alone
But it's not for free baby, you'll have to pay
You just keep me contemplating, that your soul is slowly fading
God don't you know that I live with a ton of regret?
'Cause I move you in a way that you've never known
But then I accused you in a way that you've never known
But you hurt me in a way that I've never known...
When the madness stops then you will be alone
Just break me, shake me, hate me, take me over
When the madness stops then you will be alone
You'll be, you'll be alone
Fake me, break me, shake me, hate me, take me
Break me!

Carry On Dancing
Shines down interstellar beams
And the groove tonight
Is something more than you've ever seen
The stars and planets taking shape
A stolen kiss has come too late
Carry on, keep romancing
Carry on, carry on dancing
In the moonlight
Carry on, keep romancing
Carry on, carry on dancing
And the clock strikes past midnight
The hope is gone
To move under...
In the moonlight
Carry on, carry on dancing
In the moonlight
Carry on, keep romancing
Carry on, carry on dancing
Move. Closer. Passion. Stronger
In the dark night
Ultra Violet is a wicked spell
The stars and planets taking shape
A stolen kiss has come to late
Carry on, keep romancing
Carry on, carry on dancing
In the moonlight
Carry on, keep romancing
Carry on, carry on dancing
Moving all night...

Imagine our clothes are on the floor
Feel my caress so soft and gentle
So delicate you cry for more
But you know baby
You know baby does it right
And you know baby does it right...
You gotta let me know so you can be free baby
You wanted it so much, and now that it's over
You don't know what you want
Two minds consensual
Entwined to perfection
If we could...
Cuddle up close
Lay your head on my chest now
Listen my heart beat's coming down
If you get tired you close your eyes now
When you wake up I won't be found
'Cause I know baby I know you're the nervous kind
With so much going on in your mind
You gotta let me know so you can be free baby
You wanted it so much, and now that it's over
You don't know what you want
I'm going to make you mine (I won't let you go)
'Cause I know, this time I'm going to make sure I look out for me
'Cause I know baby
Well you know baby does it right
And you know baby does it right...
And wake up with the words already in your lips
So I'll let you go, baby
So I'll let you go...
You gotta let me know so you can be free, baby
You wanted it so much, and now that it's over
You don't know what you want.
Back to the topMine
Frozen winds surround my face.
In the cover of darkness I can make believe it's you.
I feel you like the rain,
I feel you like a storm cloud building in my heart.
I wonder if you know the pain,
To want the one thing you haven't got.
Just a sip of wine ...and you could be mine
Just a kiss devine
A smile fuels a steel inferno
You don't have to die to leave my world.
Stand still and you've departed.
It seems I'm now on your mind and I'm wasting my time.
I'm just a fool to believe.
In the death of the night can you feel me inside?
I wish that you could conceive...
Just a sip of wine ...and you could be mine
Just a kiss devine ...and you could be mine
Take away the pride, all the dignity that's burning inside!
Can't you see I'm standing naked
I'll bear all the crosses and the crucifixes you can provide!
If you could decide...
Just a twist in time ...and you could be mine
Just a sip of wine ...and you could be mine
Just a kiss devine ...and you could be mine

Tears Of Pearls
Probing all the weakness and hurt still left behind and we cry
The tears of pearls
We do it. Oh we do it.
Or would a thousand lovers still leave you cold inside?
Make you cry...
These tears of pearls.
All these mixed emotions
We keep locked away like stolen pearls
Stolen pearls devotions we keep
Locked away from all the world.
But anger stole the jewels away and love has left you bare,
Made you cry...
These tears of pearls.
Well I could be the tired joker pour my heart to get you in
Sacrifice my happiness just so I could win
Maybe cry...
These tears of pearls.
We keep locked away like stolen pearls
Stolen pearls devotions we keep
Locked away from all the world
Like fallen soldiers we will learn
That once forgotten, twice removed
Love will be the death...
The death of you...
We keep locked away like stolen pearls
Stolen pearls devotions we keep
Locked away from all the world.

Violet
Would you complain that it came to easy?
Just like the games with you and me
A resolution hard to see,
But that's O.K. 'cause I don't see things that are plain to see
Exploding like a supernova
I'm going to crash into your world
And that's no lie!
But you're afraid that the pleasure won't be needed
In a way, we're the same two people looking out to sea
For a wave that would carry all our fantasies
Sway your mind and complicate you
I'm going to crash into your world
And that's no lie
To the disco inside your head (Violet)
Wear a colour that you want to cling to
The colour inside your head (Violet)
A million things take a damned good shot at you and me
Sway your mind and complicate you
I'm going to crash into your world
And that's no lie
To the disco inside your head (Violet)
Wear a colour that you want to cling to
The colour inside your head (Violet)
I'll do my best to break you
I'm gonna take you higher
And that's no lie
But give it in and the moment takes you either way
Exploding like a supernova
I'm going to crash into your world
And that's no lie
To the disco inside your head (Violet)
Wear a colour that you want to cling to
The colour inside your head (Violet)
Would you complain that it came too easy?
In a way, we're the same two people looking out to see
For a wave that would carry all our fate...

A Thousand Words
And hide behind a mask of lies
We twist and turn and we avoid, all hope of salvage now devoid
I see the truth inside your eyes
I'll bear the cost, shed my skin, call you up and then...
I'll say the words out loud
You could resurrect a thousand words to deceive me
More and more
A thousand words will give the reasons why
I don't need you anymore!
Begin to doubt my state of mind
But I won't go down on what I said
I won't retract convictions read
I may perplex, but I'm not blind
I'll bear the cost, shed my skin, call you up and then...
I'll say the words out loud
You could resurrect a thousand words to deceive
Me more and more
A thousand words will give the reasons why
I don't need you anymore!
I'll say a thousand words or more
Damnation. Frustration. Elevation. Procreation
I'll say a thousand word or more
Me more and more
A thousand words will give the reasons why

Santa Monica
I walk into the crowd
In Santa Monica, you get your coffee from the coolest places on the promenade
Where people dress just so
Beauty so unavoidable, everywhere you turn it's there.
I sit and wonder what am I doing here?
I could be a super model or Norman Mailer
And you wouldn't know the difference
Or would you?
And modern bodies too
In Santa Monica, on the boulevard, you'll have to dodge those in-line skaters
Or they'll knock you down
I never felt so lonely
Never felt so out of place...
I never wanted something more than this
I am anything I want to be
I could be a super model or Norman Mailer
And you wouldn't know the difference
On the telephone line I am any height,
I am any age I want to be
I could be a caped crusader, or space invader
And you wouldn't know the difference
Or would you?

Listen to the hunter becoming hunted
Every day there's a million advances
Don't be too forceful you'll ruin your chances
Well don't you know that time is a broken glass
That splinters against to wall?
But the picture is coming back now baby,
And I want to take it all.
There's a time to play a king and time to be a thief
'Cause if you're makin' all these promises you know you cannot keep
You know time will be the thief and your fallen king will end up alone
Silent like the sound proceeding a cyclone
Don't you know that powerful thinking
Can be a force you don't want to relinquish?
Well don't you know that,
They say that hanging on will justify the wait?
But patience and elated wisdom don't share a common phrase
There's a time to play a king and time to be a thief
'Cause if you're makin' all these promises you know you cannot keep
You know time will be the thief and your fallen king will end up alone
I'm floating high and my feet don't touch the ground
I'd take advantage but I can't see through the charade
So don't you, don't go make it harder than hell
'Cause when it comes down to the making
You better be damned sure you can take it
Hey baby
There's a time to play a king and time to be a thief
'Cause if you're makin' all these promises you know you cannot keep
You know time will be the thief and your fallen king will end up alone
Time will be the thief and your fallen king will end up...

So tell her can't you see?

It picks you up and it turns you inside out now baby
And it just won't let you go

Love Can Move You
Got to see the lights up in New York City
I'm so close I think I can hear the sound of the taxi siren symphony
Don't you want to feel amazing?
Baby you know I do
You get back ten times what you give freely
Like my mamma told me:
Can make the darkest moments like heaven's come alive
Love can move you to a place inside your heart
Where you can fear no evil and acceptance is a natural part of life.
Creepin' like a snake into New York City
I'm so close I think I can see those lights
Let the sun get closer to the ground
Don't you want to feel amazing?
Baby you know I do
You get back ten times what you give freely
Like my mamma told me
Can make the darkest moments like heaven's come alive
Love can move you to a place inside your heart
Where you can fear no evil and acceptance is a natural part of life.
And I feel the love you've hidden
And though it's cold down here well I can honestly say
I can still stay
That love can move you too, child...
Can make the darkest moments like heaven's come alive
Love can move you to a place inside your heart
Where you can fear no evil and acceptance is a natural part of life.
