Runaway
It started some years agowhen the grownups were hunting meI knew, I couldn't struggle, against themThe performance principleis crushing me to deathI want to shake it off, I want to runaway
I try to hide away in dreamsbut reality frightens meCan't find no exit, no chance to runawayI try to hide away in lovebecause I know it helps me out...to have a girl whoe helps me, helps me runaway
There's no reason to stay, my life seems to be a runaway...
I try to hide away in barsbut all they want is moneyAnd so I have one more reason, reason to runaway
The performance principleis crushing me to deathI want to shake it off, I want to runaway
There's no reason to stay, my life seems to be a runaway...

The Desert Place
I'm sitting here in this desert placeAnd there's no sign of life on faceThere's no way back to my homeI have to stay here - here on my own
They really left me here to stayAnd now my world is so far away
There's no place for a man like you - They told meAnd so you stay in this desert place
I'm sitting here in this desert placeAnd there's no sign of life on faceThere's no way back to my homeI have to stay here - here on my own
They really left me here to stayAnd now my world is so far away
There's no place for a man like you - They told meAnd so you stay in this desert place

Birds And Dogs
Piecing together my thoughtsThe way it all beganTimes are changingAnd my thoughts are lost in space
Birds and dogs
Something very specialHad taken place in my lifeI'm thinking about the two of usAnd it turned me inside out
Birds and dogs
Now when hours seem longerI'll be alone with endless sounds and noiseIt won't break down, no chance to restAnd it sounds like a thousand birds and dogs
Seasons fading awayThere will always be tomorrowRestless shadows follow my rutExploring to my inside
Birds and dogs
Now when hours seem longer...

Face Fo Face - Heart To Heart
I thought it would be easy to forget youFor after all it's been such a long timeAnd yet the memories of you still hurt meThey've been inscribed with needles in my mind
I'm sure I could convince youIf only you would let us meet again
Face to face - Heart to heartFace to face - Heart to heart
Think back to when we were togetherHow long we thought our mutual love would lastHow hard it was for us to leave each otherIs all of that now buried in the past?
I'm sure I could convince youIf only you would let us meet again
Face to face - Heart to heartFace to face - Heart to heart

Not The Loving Kind
Is this what you call lifeAsking for trouble and longing for strifeYou're chasing methe rumour 's rife
Your intention's all too clearCalling me up and calling me dearAnd filling meWith dread And fear
I can't deny it's true that love is blindIf you can't see that it's all in the mindJust leave me be I'm not the loving kindIt's plain to see I'm not the loving kind
You know you won't succeedIn winning cocks with chicken feedThe sings are thereFor you to read
Your efforts are effeteThe stakes too high for easy meatWhy don't you justadmit defeat
I can't deny it's true that love is blindIf you can't see that it's all in the mindJust leave me be I'm not the loving kindIt's plain to see I'm not the loving kind

Love System
Hey boy in the corner there - you're keeping people at bayThe others dance, you sit and stare - it doesn't really have to stay that wayTake a chance and free yourself - don't get left on the shelf
Hey girl on the dance floor - don't get carried awayYou're looking good, but are you sure - you look to good by the light of dayTake a chance and free yourself - don't get left on the shelf
Love system, love system - all have the chanceLove system, love system - get up and danceLove system, love system - everyone's thereLove system, love system - let down your hair
Love system, love system...
Hey mother it can't be true - you're just not making senseNow you're alone it won't help you - to sit alone on the garden fenceTake a chance and free yourself - don't get left on the shelf
Love system, love system - all have the chanceLove system, love system - get up and danceLove system, love system - everyone's thereLove system, love system - let down your hair
Love system, love system...
Cause I know that there's a love systemIt's a circus, it's a fateIf you're unhappy, trust the love systemNow is never too late
It's up you to change your way of lifeTake a chance and free yourselfdon't get left on the shelf
Love system, love system...

The Game Of Chance
If there's trouble in paradise, you don't belive that it will hurt youThe lines in the book and the lines on your face, are fragments in a cosmic puzzle
Everything is covered by a veil of secrecyBut there's always someone who believes in destiny
My secret's a secret and will always be, I haven't got the heart to tell youI lie to your face while you're lieing with me, you never even guess the danger
Everything is covered by a veil of secrecyBut there's always someone who believes in destiny
You see meYou see me laughThe puppets danceAnd no one knowsAbout the game of chance[Repeat]
How do you feel when the night closes in, are you frightened by the darknessWhere's the solution that lulls you to sleep, if the deep of night is endless
Everything is covered by a veil of secrecyBut there's always someone who believes in destiny
You see meYou see me laughThe puppets danceAnd no one knowsAbout the game of chance[Repeat]
Everything is covered by a veil of secrecyBut there's always someone who believes in destiny
This is joke that nobody knowsit's a gift to the presentit's made for the futureit's a precious jokeit's all I own
You see me...

Love In The Dark
When I found you I was swept away by tidal waves of passionLike a sailor drinking rum beyond the limits of his ration
I'm all at sea and I'm lost like a vessel with no courseI can't see through the night and the winds are gale force
The ship sails onand you are sleeping down belowNow you're in the holdI'll never let you go(I'll never let you go)
Love in the darkIn the middle of the oceanLove in the darkIn the storm of our emotion
I don't need to know the time of day or night or our directionOnly one thing justifies itself and that is our affection
We don't look out for the signsthat the current ebbs and flowsAnd we live in a nestmade for love and not for crows
The ship sails onAnd you are sleeping down belowNow you're in the holdI'll never let you go(I'll never let you go)
Love in the darkIn the middle of the oceanLove in the darkIn the storm of our emotion

Deep Within My Heart
I regard myself with deep suspicionI feel my beating heart, feels no contritionGuilt is a dirty word that no one likes to hearBut nothing can hope to tread, where even angels fear
I've a feeling deep within my heartthere's no feeling deep within my heartit's an act in keeping with my partthere's no feeling deep within my heart
I believe I see whatever I believeThe greatest power of mind is the power to deceiveLove is a dirty word if you're not in loveHeaven is meaningless if there's nothing up above
I've a feeling deep within my heartthere's no feeling deep within my heartit's an act in keeping with my partthere's no feeling deep within my heart
I know I said I need youAnd that my heart was dyingI should have told you thenThat I was lying
I've a feeling deep within my heartthere's no feeling deep within my heartit's an act in keeping with my partthere's no feeling deep within my heart

Time Will Tell
Time was - when time stood still for our rendezvousMy heartbeat - hit danger-zone when I thought of youWhat we had - felt like an eternityAnd nothing could go wrong - or steal our ecstasy
When you're sleeping next to meI'm waiting for the dayI lie awake and dream of youA thousand miles away
So time will tell - and time's never wrongSo time will tell - but time takes so long
Our time is up - or that's the way that it seems to beYour heartbeat - is beating now for your libertyWhat we had - can never return againNo matter what we do - no matter who takes the blame
I lie awake and dream of youA thousand miles away
So time will tell - and time's never wrongSo time wil tell - but time takes so long

Hold On To Your Dreams
You came to me in one of these nightsAnd you told me - about your fearsI tried so hard to comfort youBut you couldn't hold back your tearsYou told me something about the plansThat you made - some years agoAnd you found out that it's not so easyTo get what you want
One more day and you will findWhat it takes to see the lightOne more day and you will seeWhat it means and what life's all about
Hold on to your dreamsdon't you remember the things I told youHold on to your dreamsdon't you know how much it means to me
I guess you understand what I meanAnd that you know - I never lie to youAnd if someone won't believe in youI'm sure you'll know what to say
One more day and you will findWhat it takes to see the lightOne more day and you will seeWhat it means and what life's all about
Hold on to your dreamsdon't you remember the things I told youHold on to your dreamsdon't you know how much it means to me

One Day
One Day's a day - when everything goes wrongNot like today - not like the rest and not so long
We should never say a word we can't defendAnd if I'm right in my conclusionWe should stay to the endWe need something on which we can dependAnd if I'm right about confusionWe should stay to the end
And I said, one daywon't you ever wonder what you're living forAnd before you move don't forget, one dayThis heart won't beat no moreAnd one dayWe'll be certain what we did this whole thing forSo before you move don't forget, one dayThis heart won't beat no more
One Day's enough - to squeeze the life from loveThis is the stuff - of which our nightmares are made up
We should never say a word we can't defendAnd if I'm right in my conclusionWe should stay to the endWe need something on which we can dependAnd if I'm right about confusionWe should stay to the end
And I said, one daywon't you ever wonder what you're living forAnd before you move don't forget, one dayThis heart won't beat no moreAnd one dayWe'll be certain what we did this whole thing forSo before you move don't forget, one dayThis heart won't beat no more
Don't you ever wonder what you're living for..

Tonight
I'm gonna ask you for your love - I cannot wait for the break of dayThe sun will shine above - And you will be so far away
Though moments come and go, I can see - This is the last with you
This is the chance of a lifetime tonightNot gonna wait till you're out of sightThis is dawn of a new day tonightNow that the time is right
So in the silence of the night - We must face up to our destinyThe stars are shinnig bright - And you are here in the dark with me
Though moments come and go, I can see - This is the last with you
This is the chance of a lifetime tonightNot gonna wait till you're out of sightThis is dawn of a new day tonightNow that the time is right
This is the chance of a lifetime tonightNot gonna wait till the sky is brightThis is the start of an era tonightNow that the time is right
Though moments come and go, I can see - This is the last with you
This is the chance of a lifetime tonightNot gonna wait till you're out of sightThis is dawn of a new day tonightNow that the time is right
This is the chance of a lifetime tonightNot gonna wait till the sky is brightThis is the start of an era tonightNow that the time is right
Tonight - The chance of a lifetime tonightTonight - The start of an era tonight

Love Is Blind
You know that I would never claimTo be the perfect manBut I could not complainAbout the way I am
Just take me as you see me'Cos it's the best I have to offerAnd if it doesn't look like muchIt doesn't really matter
It cannot hurt, To tell the truthI really don't mind,'Cos love is blindTo say the truth, Is not unkindI really don't mind,'Cos love is blind
You know that I would never tryTo be somebody elseAnd I can't tell a lieTo you about myself
Just take me as you see me,'Cos it's the best I have to offerAnd if it doesn't look like much,It doesn't really matter
It cannot hurt, To tell the truthI really don't mind,'Cos love is blindTo say the truth, Is not unkindI really don't mind,'Cos love is blind(Repeat)
Just take me as you see me,'Cos it's the best I have to offerAnd if it doesn't look like much,It doesn't really matter
It cannot hurt, To tell the truthI really don't mind,'Cos love is blindTo say the truth, Is not unkindI really don't mind,'Cos love is blind(Repeat)

Touch Of Heaven
The lights are all out, we're undercoverI can't do without you, my tactile loverI can't resist you, the way you play meI'm gonna miss you, I need you dailyYou're lips are lovely, they move my sensesYou sway above me, I lie defencelessly
I'm in captivityLiving in ecstasyDo what you want to meAnd watch me flying
This is the way to my heartAnd it's a touch of heavenYou can make love to an artAnd it's a touch of heaven
You give me the squezze, I'm under pressureYour fingers release, a perfect pleasureYou give my body, the strangest feelingYou lay upon me, your hands of healingYou are the goddess, of love eternalYour tongue is endless, when used internally
I'm in captivityLiving in ecstasyDo what you want to meAnd watch me flying
This is the way to my heartAnd it's a touch of heavenYou can make love to an artAnd it's a touch of heaven
I'm in captivity...

I Need You
I thought that you should goWhat were you worth to meI thought I'd find another girlAs soon as I was free
But then I saw you and I nearly diedStanding in the arms of mister niceSo finally he'd got you - it all became so clearYour lips were nearly touching - it was more than I could bear
I need youI need you and I need to know you're mineI need youI need you like the lyric needs a line
I knew that you loved meI didn't feel the sameWhile you were being true to meI was playing games
But then I saw you and nearly diedStanding in the arms of mister niceSo finally he'd got you - it all became so clearYour lips were nearly touching - it was more than I could bear
I need youI need you and I need to know you're mineI need youI need you like the lyric needs a line

Playing With Fire
I'm going where I please - And coming to my sensesI don't fall to my knees - At the fences
Taking – Life in – LaughingAnd playing with Fire
Lost in – Loving – LaughingAnd playing with Fire
I'm taking every chance - And giving up at nothingAnd altering my stance - Without warning
We're living for a lifetimeAnd playing with FireWe're living on the lineAnd playing with Fire
I'm living for today - And dying to be with herI never beg or pray - Exept to differ
Taking – Life in – LaughingAnd playing with Fire
Lost in – Loving – LaughingAnd playing with Fire
We're living for a lifetimeAnd playing with FireWe're living on the lineAnd playing with Fire

Can't get out
And when the nightime closes in - the pretty picture show beginsand you can not defend - the darkness at the other endAnd when the nightime closes in - the colors crumble from withinand you can not control - the darkness trippin' through your soul
And when the nightime closes in - the voices in the dark beginand you can not defend - upon the dream to ever endAnd when the nightime closes in - then something changes from withinand you can not escape - the one direction of your faith
I resigned to timeCan't get out of it, can't get outI'm confined in another mindCan't get out of it, can't get out
And when the nightime closes in - the voices in the dark beginand you can not defend - upon the dream to ever endAnd when the nightime closes in - then something changes from withinand you can not escape - the one direction of your faith
And in the middle of the night - you search around you for the lightbut still you cannot find - a piece of luck or peace of mindAnd as the shadows grow around - the silence deafens you for soundand everything you hear - instills in you a sense of fear
I resigned to timeCan't get out of it, can't get outI'm confined in another mindCan't get out of it, can't get out
When the nighttime closes in on youthere is nothing, nothing you can dothere is nothing, nothing left for youCan't get out of it, can't get out
When the darkness comes before your eyeslike the silence, just before your eyesthere is nothing, nothing you can doCan't get out of it, can't get out

War on War
In the darkness you cannot use bayonetsThe only way you can kill peopleis to throw a couple of granadesand then machinegun itand then get on
Of course there are casualties in warBut what is important, is not that one dies,but the principles that one dies forThe fighting unit is simply an expression of morality,thus the motto of the armed forces isWe have nothing to loose, but our honour
It is anywhere a scientific factthat the modern techniques of armed combatwhatever the theater of war, whether arctic or tropicallow even the foot soldier, to avoid the discomfort of rain, water, gales of heat, cold and mud
Fight the good fightFight for your lifeYour country is callingFight for right
Fight the good fightFight for your lifeYour country is burning, burning bright
War on WarWhat you're here forWar on WarWhat you fight for
A military spokesman has described the situation at the front as graveThe ravaged army is limping in retreatwith the general staff giving orders for the troopsto assemble and regroupand present arms, and legs and severed heads

Breaking my heart
It’s not an art to break my heartYou always did it from the startApart from other games you playEvery day, in every way
It’s all the same to you, who you screwWho survives and who slips throughAnd they all get their dues, you sayWhat's gonna happen to you?
Now your’re breaking my heartNow your’re breaking my heartNow I’m falling apartDon't go breaking my heart
It’s not the way you say goodbyeThe things you do that make me dieEternal lies about eternityYou turn the key and I feel free
But I’m a prisoner, I’m yoursAnd I crawl to you on all foursI bare my soul behind closed doorsI don’t regret it what’s happening to me
Now your’re breaking my heartNow your’re breaking my heartNow I’m falling apartDon't go breaking my heart
Call meI'll give you anything, for freeFall into meI’ll want to you say: You love me
Now your’re breaking my heartNow your’re breaking my heartNow I’m falling apartDon't go breaking my heart

I don't know what to do
You were the oneWho broke my mind in twoNow we're in halfI talk to me not you
And I numbered youAmong my friends and moreI could count on youNow I ask what for
I'm on my ownYou've gone to scoreYou're in your primeAnd I'm no more
You're adding to the pain each dayCos all you do is take awayAnd I don't know what to do(Don't know what to do)
I calculated you would stayBut all you do is take awayAnd I don't know what to do(Don't know what to do)
I even askedWhy you were so oddYou only careFor number one and God
I'm on my ownYou've gone to scoreYou're in your primeAnd I'm no more
You're adding to the pain each day...

Going through the motions
I can't believe that it's for realI can't believe you told the truthIt doesn't matter what you feelYou look to old to play the youth
And so I put the pressure on youIt's time for you to act your ageThough I can't tell you what to doI can destroy your gilded cage
I want youDo you want meYou know you want to want somebody
We're going through the motionsI'm living on emotionWe're going through the motionsI'm living on devotion
It's not to late to stop the rotThe time has come to make a standAnd if I put you on the spotI hope that you will understand
I want you...

Forever and ever
I saw your face, through a windowBut you vanished without traceAnd I searched, all the nightAll around the place
Then when you came, I knew I'd found youAnd I'd never feel the sameEvery day, we're apartIs a crying shame
Time is flying - And I've been missing you babyOur love's not dying - It's getting stronger each day
You and me, was meant to beAnd we'll be lovingForever and ever
All we need is harmonyAnd we'll be lovingForever and ever
You're in the mould of something specialThat can't be bought and soldAnd I know, that what's mineis a heart of gold
And come what may, we're togetherForever and a dayCos we've found, what we wantAnd it's here to stay
Time is flying - And I've been missing you babyOur love's not dying - It's getting stronger each day
You and me, was meant to beAnd we'll be lovingForever and ever
All we need is harmonyAnd we'll be lovingForever and ever
