LOVE AN ADVENTURE        RCA   1987


A Beat For You (B. Canham)

In my life I've many strong desires
And still in all I'm reaching for the fire
You never look, you never see
You never notice when you're next to me
But feel my heart, it's burning with desire

There's a beat for you in my heart
I tell you true from the start

Catch a glimpse, remember it forever
And still I try to keep myself together
You never speak, you never hear
You're never closer when I want you near
But feel my heart, it's burning with desire

There's a beat for you in my heart
I tell you true form the start


Living In A Dream (B. Canham)

Walking in a strange light, looking at the walls
The walls are getting higher and I think they're gonna fall
They're gonna fall down over me, crush me till I scream
Now I'm only hoping that I'm living in a dream
It's just a dream

Fear lies over me, I feel it all around
Something's looking at me and I think it's got a crown
It's not a king or a queen but something in between
Now I'm only hoping that I'm living in a dream
It's just a dream

It's strange how things seem to be different
When you're living in a dream

Wars and violence here happen every day
But I'm in another world a million miles away
It's just like real life, true life, living in a dream
But everything is better then, or that's the way it seems
It's just a dream

It's strange how things seem to be different
When you're living in a dream


Try (B. Canham/J. Leigh)

Once the light shined high and bright in you
All your feelings were aglow
Then you always knew just what to do
Now you never seem to know

Which way to look
Which way to turn
You never took the time to learn
Which way to look
Which way to turn
Try, make it your concern

You've never got the notion
You've never got the time
You never show emotion
Why don't you try, try

You have changed so much, I don't know why
Won't you give this thing a go
Now you never take the time to try
Though I wonder if you know

Which way to look
Which way to turn
You never took the time to learn
Which way to look
Which way to turn
Try, make it your concern

You've never got the notion
You've never got the time
You never show emotion
Why don't you try, try


Listening (B. Canham)

Listening like you did before
Now you're listening no more
See that girl, she's the one I want
To be holding, holding me close

I say, you say, weren't you listening
Now it's too late, you're not listening

I've said it all before
So many words, but you just closed the door
Did you notice the changes in me
But now it's too late to see

I say, you say, weren't you listening
Now it's too late, you're not listening

I hope you understand
The feeling of freedom I demand

I say, you say, weren't you listening
Now it's too late, you're not listening


I Will Be You (B. Canham/A. Argiro)

You spend your life here waiting
And another day goes by
But the time we fought together
Shared the laughter and the sighs

You can take a chance or two
But don't ever let this end
And our life is so enduring
You're more a brother than a friend

Time is over my friend
I'll always wait till the end

I will be you
You will be me
We'll be each other for a day
I will be you
You will be me
We'll be each other for a day

I spend my life here searching
In these walls the pain and cries
And your trust I was always testing
Yet your heart could only smile

I could never hold you here
But I can never let you go
You've been the one constant companion
And I need to let you know

But the time is over again
I'll always wait till the end

I will be you
You will be me
We'll be each other for a day
I will be you
You will be me
We'll be each other for a day


Love An Adventure (B. Canham)

Days and the years go by
Always passing time
Never realise all the questions in my mind

Sure I need an answer
Sure I need a high
But I don't anticipate
I just wait till the moment's right

'Cause I love an adventure
A journey into my mind
Yes I love an adventure
It's something to pass the time

Now as I realise
Nothing is enough
Time is on my side
Even though times can get rough

Yes I need the reasons
Reasons in your mind
But I don't anticipate
I just wait till the moment's right

'Cause I love an adventure
A journey into my mind
Yes I love an adventure
It's something to pass the time


Destination Unknown (B. Canham / P. Pierre / F. Scalzo)

I'm in the middle of nowhere
And there's not a single thing I can do
I wonder if I'll be found here
Will I ever get a message to you

The days are dark, the time unknown
And how I got here I don't know

I'd walk for miles
Only there's a million miles of nothing to do
I've never felt so lonely
Will I ever get a message to you

The days are dark, the time unknown
And how I got here I don't know

Destination unknown
Population zero
Send somebody, don't leave me alone

The situation's hopeless
It's a waste of time looking for clues
The only thing to hope for
Is that I'll somehow get a message to you

The days are dark, the time unknown
And how I got here I don't know

Destination unknown
Population zero
Send somebody, don't leave me alone


Funkytown (S. Greenberg)

Gotta make a move to a town that's right for me
Town to keep me movin', keep me groovin' with some energy
Well I talk about it talk about it talk about it talk about it
Talk about talk about talk about movin'

Gotta move on
Gotta move on
Gotta move on

Won't you take me to Funky Town
Won't you take me to Funky Town
Won't you take me to Funky Town
Won't you take me to Funky Town


Lonely Without You (B. Canham/J. Leigh)

One heart, one man's goal
Can't see light in another soul
Don't care for what I see
Nothing matters if this can't be

My love is an ocean away
I can hear the waves
Can you hear me pray
My love is an ocean away
I can hear the waves
Can you hear me say

My life is so lonely without you

Though we're so far apart
You're still close to my heart
Can this be what it seems
One love, one man's dream

My love is an ocean away
I can hear the waves
Can you hear me pray
My love is an ocean away
I can hear the waves
Can you hear me say

My life is so lonely without you


Lies Are Nothing (B. Canham/J. Leigh)

I never questioned you and your ways
Yet all your stories led me astray
I should've noticed
I should've known
Yet I believed you all on my own

Lies are nothing
Lies are nothing
Lies are nothing next to your truth

I still remember your precious smile
You had me playing fool for a while
I never noticed
I never knew
All that you told me never was true

Lies are nothing
Lies are nothing
Lies are nothing next to your truth


Tell Me (B. Canham/J. Leigh/V. Leigh)

Every day I see the sun shining
It doesn't mean a thing to me
Either way, I'll never stop trying
Until I am the one you seek

Suddenly my heart stops beating
Silence, not a word from you
How can I keep on waiting
Without a single tear from you

So why don't you tell me
(Tell me that you want me)
Why don't you tell me
(Tell me that you care)

Every night I see your eyes
There never is a clue for me
Is it right that you should hide
Every single thing you feel from me

Suddenly my heart stops beating
Silence, not a word from you
How can I keep on waiting
Without a single tear from you

So why don't you tell me
(Tell me that you want me)
Why don't you tell me
(Tell me that you care)
