Go To Sleep

There's a shadow on the terrace
A snow dance for the living
There's heavy weather on the way
I heard it on the news.

And life's a tough principal who won't reward the losers
Your name is on the tea-cup
There's nothing I can do.

But to wish you'd think about me before you go to sleep
And I wish you the best there is before you go to sleep.

There are tears without the colour
A million seas with water
An ocean full of people where shattered hearts can go.

And love's a golden ripple where answers are so simple
But the explanations are very hard to do.

And I wish you'd think about me before you go to sleep
And I wish you the best there is before you go to sleep
Go to sleep.

Beautiful Things

Beautiful things
Are comin' my way
Beautiful things
I want them to stay
But after a while
My beautiful things
Don't seem beautiful at all

Terrible things
Like when you wake up
And all of your dreams
Seem to crack up
Like things you have done
Like breakin' my heart
For you it don't seem
Terrible at all

Is there someone I can talk to?
Someone on the line?
Does anybody want to hear
What's on my mind?

Beautiful things
Like leaves on a tree
Beautiful things
The sky and the sea
Since you've been gone
No beautiful things
Seem beautiful to me

Is there someone I can talk to?
Someone out there on the line?
Does anybody want to hear
What's on my mind?

Make the grass grow in the garden
When the rain is passin' by
Does anybody want to know
What's on my mind?

Waiting For The Rain

I'm waiting for the rain
I'm waiting for you
I'm waiting for the rain
To clean my soul
I'm waiting for the rain
Nothing's gonna be better
Without you

The day you left me
The day you came
I'll never forget you
Feel you in my pain
The time stood still
The time was flying
I wonder why
I'm not dying

I'm waiting for the sun
I'm waiting for a new day
I'm waiting for the night
To close my eyes
I'm waiting for the dark
Oh it's gonna be harder
Without you

The way we danced
I'll always miss
I'll never forget
The way we kissed
The time stood still
The time was flying
I wonder why
I'm not dying

Na na na na na

The First Girl On The Moon

She was the first girl on the moon
She didn't compromise
When she took off that cold afternoon
Heading for the northern skies.

I told her I could come
That I could come along.

She was the first girl on the moon
I think I was her only friend
She brought her raygun, an old harpoon
Just in case of accidents.

I told her I could come
That I could come along
But she didn't let me come along
Wave goodbye
Wave goodbye.

She was the first girl on the moon
Standing tall, flag in hand
She looked around humming a tune
The strangest song known to man.

I told her I could come
That I could come along
But she never let me come along
Wave goodbye. Wave goodbye.

Place Your Love

Sunday
Sick o' my tears
Monday morning
I could've felt much better.

Tuesday
You're in my way
I wish you would type my heart a letter.

Place your love
In my world
It's for you
It's made for you
I need time
A lot o' time
To get you off my mind
To get you off my mind.

Wednesday
Nuthin's OK
Thursday afternoon
I wish I was sleepin'.

Friday and Saturday sun
Gettin' up early but I can't get nuthin' done.

Place your love
In my world
It's for you
It's all made for you
I need time
A lot o' time
To get you off my mind
To get you off my mind.

Maybe you'll come here
Maybe you'll disappear
Maybe the clouds I fear will turn to flowers in the air
These cool vibrations
They're hitting me all the time
You've got me diggin' and divin' in the garden of my mind.

It's a high
To watch you fly
Across the sky
All the time
To watch you all the time.

I Love The Sound Of Crashing Guitars

Mao Mao Mao...

I love the sound of smashing guitars
I love the sound of crashing guitars
Red guitars against the wall
Big guitars can turn so small
I love the sound of crashing guitars
Show it!

The 6-string kick inside
The 6-string kick inside
The 6-string kick inside.

I love the sound of breaking guitars
I love the sound of crashing guitars
Hey you long haired vintage Jesus
Break the guitar into 1000 pieces
I love the sound of crashing guitars
Don't you?

The 6-string kick inside
The 6-string kick inside.

Don't you love the sound of crashing guitars?
Don't you love the sound of crashing electric guitars?
Don't you love that sound, drivin' in your car
Don't you love the sound of crashing electric guitars?
Don't you?
Don't you?

I love the touch of watching the stars
I love the sound of trashing guitars
Custom made, Townshend's ace
Smash the axe and break the case
I love the sound of crashing guitars
Crashing and crashing!

The 6-string kick inside
The 6-string kick inside.

I love the sound of crashing guitars
Mao Mao Mao...

What's She Like

What's she like when she turns around to kiss you goodnight?
When she wakes up in the morning by your side?
What's she like?

What's she like?
The yellow moon or the deep blue of the sea?
Do you feel the same way you did when it was me?
What's she like?

Oh I've been holding on
I've been holding on for far too long
I've been holding on
I've been holding on much too long.

What's she like when you're making love and stars are in her eyes?
When you're looking for the answers in her smile?
What's she like?

Oh I've been holding on
I've been holding on for far too long
I've been holding on
I've been holding on much too long
Too long.

I never knew I could love somebody the way I loved you
I never thought I'd be the broken-hearted
Well, nothing hurts you like the truth.

So what's she like when she turns to you, when push comes to shove?
When she whispers in your ear that she's in love?
What's she like?

Oh I've been holding on
I've been holding on for far too long
I've been holding on
I've been holding on much too long
So what's she like?

Do You Wanna Go The Whole Way?

Before we take off all our clothes and get close together
Before it gets too serious both of us need to know
Are we gonna go the whole awy this time?
This time?

Before all secrets are revealed old scars must heal or wither
But it's getting very late and I can't wait anymore
Are we gonna go the whole way this time
Do you wanna go the whole way this time?
This time?

Do you wanna go the whole way now?
We're taking it easy
Do you wanna go the whole way, Babe?
Kick it in, kick it in slowly.

Do you wanna go the whole way this time?
Do you wanna go the whole way for sure
Do you wanna go the whole way this time?
This time?
This time?
Do ya?

Lies

Put 'em on
Put the big boots on
Baby put them big boots on.

Make a mark
Make a good kick start
Kick yourself right outa my heart.

It's a cookin' jumpin' jivin' shout
Cos you're every little thing I can do without
Every line you lay, every trick you trade
They could never ever make the grade.

Lies
La-la-la-la-lies
It's all lies
La-la-la-la-lies
You're all lies.

Honeybutt
Keep your big mouth shut
Baby keep that big mouth shut.

It's a steamin' jumpin' jivin' shout
Cos you're every little thing I still dream about
But the love you lay, every prayer you pray
It will never ever make my day
Listen to me good...

Lies
La-la-la-la-lies
It's all lies
Only lies
La-la-la-la-lies
You're all lies.

Doo doo doo doo doo.

I'm Sorry

The first time we met time stood still
You left me breathless
Suddenly speechless.

Within the hour we were one
Two total strangers kissing the moonlight.

Oh, you know I'm sorry I had to go
I'm really sorry it had to die
I'm really sorry I made you cry
Cry.

We fell in love between the nights
Of too many lovers and too many teardrops.

And fate won't resist some satin sheets
I was so helpless
Totally ruthless.

Oh, you know I'm sorry I had to go
I'm really sorry you're hurt inside
I'm really sorry I made you cry
Cry, cry.

Love is lifting you up and draggin' you down
Makes you go round and round and round
Time makes a stop then it's all gone
Funny how memories keep lingering on.

Dangerous


Hold on tight,
you know she's a little bit dangerous.
Ooh, just a little bit dangerous.

You pack your bag,
you take control.
You're movin' into my heart
and into my soul.
Get out of my way!
Get out of my sight!
I won't be walking on thin ice
to get through the night.

Hey, where's your work?
What's your game?
I know your business,
don't know your name.

Hold on tight,
you know she's a little bit dangerous.
She's got what it takes to make ends meet,
the eyes of a lover that hit like heat.
You know she's a little bit dangerous.

You turn around,
so hot and dry.
You're hidin' under a halo,
your mouth is alive.
Get out of my way!
Get out of my sight!
I'm not attracted to gogo
deeper tonight.

Hey, what's your word?
What's your game?
I know your business,
but I don't know your name.

Hold on tight,
you know she's a little bit dangerous.
She's got what it takes to make ends meet,
the eyes of a lover that hit like heat.
You know she's a little bit dangerous,
ooh, just a little bit dangerous.

Hey, hey, hey, what's your word?
What's your game?
I know your business,
but I don't know your name.

Hold on tight,
you know she's a little bit dangerous.
She's got what it takes to make ends meet,
the eyes of a lover that hit like heat.
You know she's a little bit dangerous.

She's armed and she's extremely dangerous.
She's got what it takes to make ends meet,
the eyes of a lover that hit like heat.
You know she's a little bit dangerous,
ooh, just a little bit dangerous.

Oh, oh oh, hey, where's your work?
Mmm, what's your game?
I don't know your name.
Hey, you!
ooh, just a little bit dangerous.
I don't know your name.

Joyride

Hello, you fool I love you!
C'mon join the joyride

I hit the road out of nowhere,
I had to jump in my car
and be a rider in a love game
following the stars,
don't need no book of wisdom,
I get no money talk at all

She has a train going downtown,
she's got a club on the moon
and she's telling all her secrets
in a wonderful balloon.
She's the heart of the funfair,
she's got me whistling her private tune

And it all begins where it ends,
and she's all mine,
my magic friend

She says: hello, you fool, I love you,
c'mon join the joyride, join the joyride

She's a flower, I can paint her,
she's a child of the sun,
we're a part of this together,
could never turn around and run
Don't need no fortune teller
to know where my lucky love belongs oh no

Cos it all begins again when it ends, yea,
and we're all
magic friends.

She says: hello, you fool, I love you,
c'mon join the joyride, join the joyride

She says: hello, you fool, I love you,
c'mon join the joyride, be a joyrider

I take you on a skyride,
I feeling like you're spellbound
The sunshine is a lady
who ROX you like a baby

She says: hello, you fool, I love you,
c'mon join the joyride, join the joyride

Hello, you fool, I love you,
c'mon join the joyride, join the joyride

Hello, hello, you fool, I love you,
c'mon c'mon join the joyride, be a joyrider

Almost Unreal

Babe
Come in from the cold
Put that coat to rest
Step inside
Take a deep breath
And do what you do best
Yea
Kick off them shoes
And leave those city streets
I do belive
Love came our way
Fate did arrange
For us to meet
Refrain
I love when you do
That hocus pocus to me
The way that you touch
You've got the power to heal
You give me that look
It's almost unreal
It's almost unreal
Hey
We can't stop the rain
Let's find a place by the fire
Sometimes I feel
Strange as it seems
You've been in my dreams
All my life
- refrain -
It's a crazy world out there
Let's hope our prayers
Are in good hands tonight

7Twenty7

7twenty7 is ready to move
You know she packed her bags
With nothing left to prove
I thought I didn't care
Now I'm fallin' through
Wouldn't you?

Well, it's a long long journey to the other side
Oh I've been wishin' all night I was on that flight
And god, you'd better take care of the sweetest eyes
I hear myself swallowin' the tears I cry I hear myself swallowin' the tears I cry

7twenty7 is up in the air
You know I feel her hands
On me everywhere
I thought I didn't care
Now I'm saying a prayer
Hey mister, do you know the way
To salvation square?

It's a long long winter 'til the birds will sing
Oh I'll be waitin' all night for the phone to ring
I'm goin' up in smoke and phoney magazines
Everything is just pieces of my stupid dreams
Everything is just spieces of my stupid dreams

With the clouds passin' by
With the clouds passin' by
It's all right

7twenty7 is close to the sky
It carries the world
Between hello and goodbye
Like the Monday we met
That disappeared in a breath
Like the Sunday she left
Forever smellin' of death

Another jet black night, another drink to go
Oh I'll be diving my head in the pure white snow
God, you'd better take care of this gold skinned friend
Tell me, will I ever see her again
Tell me, will I ever see her again

Love Is All (Shine Your Light On Me)

Love is all
Love is all around you
Love is there in your laughter
In your hair
Love flows everywhere.

Love is old
Love is older than you
But the light shining through
Makes me see
Your love is all new.

Hey
Sha la la
Shine a light
Shine on me
Shine your light on me
Sha la la
Shine your light on me.

Love is all
Love will always be The Law
And higher love radiates on us all
On us all.

Spending My Time


What's the time, seems it's already morning
I see the sky, it's so beautiful and blue
The tv's on but the only thing showing is a picture of you

Oh I get up and make myself some coffee
I try to read a bit, but the story is too thin
I thank the Lord above you're not here to see me
in this shape I'm in

Spending my time
Watching the days go by
Feeling so small, I stare at the wall
hoping that you think of me too
I'm spending my time

I try to call but I don't know what to tell you
I leave a kiss on your answering machine
Oh help me please is there someone who can make me
wake up from this dream?

spending my time
watching the days go by
feeling so small, I stare at the wall
hoping that you are missing me too

spending my time
watching the sun go down
I fall asleep to the sound
of "tears of a clown"
a prayer gone blind
I'm spending my time

my friends keep telling me hey life will go on
time will make sure I'll get over you ooh
this silly game of love - you play, you win onlyto lose

I'm spending my time
watching the days go by
feeling so small, I stare at the wall
hoping that you think of me too

I'm spending my time
watching the sun go down
I sleep to the sound
tears of a clown
praying I'm found

I'm spending my time...

I can't live without your love
It's bad to live without you, honey, honey, honey

The Look

1-2-3-4 walking like a man,
hitting like a hammer,
she's a juvenile scam.
Never was a quitter,
tasty like a raindrop,
she's got the look.

Heavenly bound
cause heaven's got a number
when she's spinning me around,
kissing is a colour.
Her loving is a wild dog,
she's got the look

She's got the look.
She's got the look.
What in the world can make a brown-eyed girl turn blue.
When everything I'll ever do I'll do for you
and I go: la la la la la
she's got the look

Fire in the ice
naked to the t-bone
is a lover's disguise.
Banging on the head drum,
shaking like a mad bull,
she's got the look.

Swaying to the band,
moving like a hammer
she's a miracle man.
Loving is the ocean,
kissing is the wet sand,
she's got the look

She's got the look.
She's got the look.
What in the world can make a brown-eyed girl turn blue.
When everything I'll ever do I'll do for you
and I go: la la la la la
she's got the look

walking like a man,
hitting like a hammer,
she's a juvenile scam.
Never was a quitter,
tasty like a raindrop,
she's got the look.

And she goes: na na na na na na na na.

She's got the look.
She's got the look.
What in the world can make a brown-eyed girl turn blue.
When everything I'll ever do I'll do for you
and I go: la la la la la
she's got the look

Listen To Your Heart

I know there's something in the wake of your smile.
I get a notion from the look in your eyes, yea.
You've built a love but that love falls apart.
Your little piece of heaven turns too dark.

Listen to your heart
when he's calling for you.
Listen to your heart
there's nothing else you can do.
I don't know where you're going
and I don't know why,
but listen to your heart
before you tell him goodbye.

Sometimes you wonder if this fight is worthwhile.
The precious moments are all lost in the tide, yea.
They're swept away and nothing is what is seems,
the feeling of belonging to your dreams.

And there are voices
that want to be heard.
So much to mention
but you can't find the words.
The scent of magic,
the beauty that's been
when love was wilder than the wind.

Crazy About You

Ooooo...
I'm crazy about you
I'll give you all my love
Yes I'm crazy about you
Night and day, day and night
I'll be your heart's salvation

Hey baby, let's stay together
Let's make it now and forever
I want to show it and shout it
and tell the whole world about it

I thought it never could happen
I thought you never would see me
You run a lovin' locomotive
You make my needs very primitive

The more I get, the more I want from you, of your affection
When you're around, I'm in control, I feel a complete connection

Hello, hello
I'm so crazy about you, you know... baby
Hello, hello, hello
Yes I'm crazy, so crazy about you

C'mon close your eyes, honey, trust me!
I want to enjoy your body
I want to take you much higher
and play the game of desire

Well I can't hide
I'm getting hungry for a bite
I'm blinded by this obsession
I keep dancing like your possession

I'll wrap my legs all around you I'll show you total devotion
No need to talk Love will speak to you with sweet emotions

Hello, hello
I'm so crazy about you, you know...baby
Hello, hello, hello
Yes I'm crazy, so crazy about you

Run To You

baby sometimes i feel like dying
driving while i'm closing my eyes
moving in and out of hiding
trying to catch some truth in my life
watching your stars and your moonlight
come tumbling down from the sky
take it now

i'm gonna run to you
i'm gonna come to you
i wanna find you
in everything that i do
i'm gonna run to you
i'm gonna count on you
i'm gonna follow
baby what else can i do?

sunday morning my town is sleeping
lying all alone in my bed
there's not a sound i can't help but listening
wishing i was somewhere else instead
but sometimes they're too hard to handle
those voices inside my head
listen now

i'm gonna run to you
i'm gonna come to you
i wanna find you
in everything that i do
i'm gonna run to you
i'm gonna count on you
i'm gonna follow
baby what else can i do?

take a walk inside my dream: a church a lonely road
all the people come and go
do it now!
