Let Love Come

Written by Peter Cox /Richard Drummie

I woke up – she was gone

I got a good idea who she’ll blame it on

Heaven sent – hell to pay

She was candy sweet when

she got her way

Guess I should be out crying in the rain

But it’s such a beautiful day

So I say to myself

I will save my soul for somebody else

Easy come – easy go

When I work it out you’ll be

the first to know

Guess I should be lost in the mystery

But it’s such a beautiful day

You gotta let love come to you

You can’t just turn it on

You gotta let love come to you

Make a wish, say a prayer

Neither one is gonna get you anywhere

Might as well take a drive

You could find an angel waiting

at the light

Maybe drop the top – blow your cares away

Isn’t it a beautiful day?

You gotta let love come to you

You can’t just turn it on

You gotta let love come to you

Stars Don't Shine

Written by Peter Cox /Richard Drummie

Minutes into hours

Hours into days

How do I still love you?

Let me count the ways

I was watching through the window

When you showed me the door

To another world

To another world..

Talked to me in colours

I’d never seen before

Painted me a picture of

All I’ve been wishing for

Seduced me with illusion

And then walked out the door

To another world

To another world..

And now the stars don’t shine

The way they did when you were mine

The stars don’t shine

You stole the diamonds from the sky

I’m lost without your spark

The night is dark

And the stars don’t shine

The stars don’t shine on me

Spring will follow winter

The sun will melt the snow

And when you love somebody

You’ve got to let them know

So I watched you through the window

As you walked down the road

To another world

And now the stars don’t shine

The way they did when you were mine

The stars don’t shine

Man On Fire

Written by Peter Cox /Richard Drummie

I walked the world alone

I was rolling like a stone

A heart without a home

I saw cities all the same

Full of faces with no names

I was searching for the flame inside

A flame that almost died..

But one touch from you

Man on fire

Whatever you do takes me higher

I’m shot up with desire

Man on fire

Set sail on the ocean wide

I was driftwood on the tide

Reaching for the other side

Crossed the desert through the night

Between the shadows and the light

I was waiting for the sun to rise

I saw it in your eyes..

Just one touch from you

Man on fire

Whatever you do takes me higher

Out of a lonely blue sky

I’m shot up with desire

Man on fire

Now I’m somebody else

A stranger to myself

I’ve never felt this way before

You gotta give me more

‘cause one touch from you

Man on fire

Whatever you do takes me higher

Out of a lonely blue sky

Just one touch from you

Man on fire

Now I feel..

Lolita

Written by Peter Cox /Richard Drummie

Lolita

She make summer sweeter

She cool like granita

A little heartbreaker

Surrender

You’ll never forget her

She own you forever

She will if you let her

Jeweled belly flat and brown

Hides her promise, eyes cast down

Turning heads all over town

Everywhere she goes

Lolita

She make summer sweeter

She do something to ya

The moment you meet her

I tell ya

One look and it’s over

She get to ya mister

No one can resist her

Crystal eyes and perfect skin

Angel smile so innocent

Making slaves of fools and kings

Everywhere she goes

Lolita

She make summer sweeter

She cool like granita

A little heart breaker

Surrender

You’ll never forget her

She own you forever

She will if you let her

Jewelled belly flat and brown

Hides her promise, eyes cast down

Turning heads all over town

Everywhere she goes

Glow

Written by Peter Cox /Richard Drummie

It’s after midnight and I’m lost in you

Nobody ever made me feel the way

you do

It won’t be long before the day is new

But I don’t want to close my eyes

‘cause every minute that you’re

here with me

Is one more minute that I’m where I

want to be

And though there’s almost nothing

left of me

I don’t want to close my eyes..

I want to watch you glow

‘cause I can sleep tomorrow

But baby tonight

I want to watch you glow

So you dream sweet

And I’ll turn out the light

So I can watch you glow..

Tangled together feeling skin on skin

I want to take you to a place you’ve

never been

And when you whisper

you’re surrendering

I don’t want to close my eyes..

I want to watch you glow

‘Cause I can sleep tomorrow

But baby tonight

I want to watch you glow

So you dream sweet

And I’ll turn out the light

Just kiss me one more time

Baby I know it’s late

The sandman calls

And he won’t wait

So lie back in my arms

And I won’t let you go

I want to watch you glow..

I don’t want to close my eyes

I want to watch you glow..

Only Love

Written by Peter Cox /Richard Drummie

Hey – I’m caught up in the web you weave

The perfect storm – a siren’s song

You carry me away

Hey – I’m tangled in the lies you tell

A honey trap – no way back

I’m just a game you play

I’m in the wind – I twist and turn

You light a flame in me

And you let me burn

But you give me nothing in return

And it’s only love that brings me

back to you

Right or wrong – no matter what I do

Only love – strong and true

It’s only love that’s taken hold of me

Fools my heart and fades my memory

Only love can stop the rain

Only love can make me stay

Only love..

Hey – I lose myself in reverie,

You cast a spell so I can’t tell

The water from the wine

Hey – like a fever coming over me

I get so high that I can’t find

The reason or the rhyme

You break my heart – you bruise my soul

You tear my world apart

And you make me whole

I can’t hold on – I can’t let go

And it’s only love that brings me

back to you

Right or wrong – no matter what I do

Only love – strong and true

It’s only love that’s taken hold of me

Fools my heart and fades my memory

Only love can stop the rain

Only love can make me stay..

Never Enough

Written by Peter Cox /Richard Drummie

Since the day I was born

Had the feeling something’s wrong

With my circuitry

Something shorting inside

‘Cause I’m never satisfied

Will I ever be?

I know only fools believe in

picture perfect love..

Got a sign on my wall

Says ‘You can’t have it all

But try anyway’

I keep wondering if there’s

Something better somewhere

On some other day

I can’t even tell you what it is

I’m dreaming of..

But it’s never enough

I can’t help myself

It’s never enough

What’s a man to do?

I can’t help it

Will I find state of grace,

Is there something out of place

In my chemistry?

‘Cause I can’t give it up

Always one more for luck

I can’t let it be

I know only fools believe in

picture perfect love..

But it’s never enough

I can’t help myself

It’s never enough

What’s a man to do?

Give me just one more, just one

more, just one more

I won’t be happy till I’m face

down on the floor

Face down on the floor

I can’t help it..

I can’t even tell you what it is I’m

dreaming of

But it’s never enough..

Faded

Written by Peter Cox /Richard Drummie

Going down – sinking into the blue

I’m no good when I’m this way

I could drown trying to hold on to you

You already got away

Didn’t you say that I was your light?

Like a new star in the midnight sky..

I guess I faded

Now you look through me like I’m no one

When I’m standing right here

And I feel like I might disappear

Any hope I held onto

Any dream of me and you

Has faded..

Giving up isn’t easy for me

I don’t want to let you go

I’m in love – I don’t want to be free

You are all I want to know

Didn’t you tell me I was the one?

Didn’t I burn brighter than the sun?

I guess I faded

Now you look through me like I’m no one

When I’m standing right here

And I feel like I might disappear

Any hope I held onto

Any dream of me and you

Has faded..

And I know it’s time to walk away

I know there’s nothing more to say

I’ve already faded..

All Day, All Night

Written by Peter Cox /Richard Drummie

Anyone can see

All I wanna be is by your side

What you do to me

Makes me feel like I light up inside

And I don’t care what they say, baby

I love your way with me

When I look into your eyes

I see just what I want to see

‘cause you make me believe..

You know I dream about you girl – all day

Until the minute I can get away

‘cause I’m in heaven in your

arms all night

And all I wanna do is hold you tight

I never knew I could be so in love

I feel like I can never get enough

It can’t be wrong because it

feels so right

That’s why I love you all day – all night

You are all I need

You’re my lover – yeah, you’re

my best friend

And I feel incomplete

‘Til I’m lying in your arms again

So I don’t care what they say, baby

I love your way with me

When I look into your eyes

I see just what I want to see

‘Cause you make me believe..

You know I dream about you girl –

all day

Until the minute I can get away

‘Cause I’m in heaven in your arms

all night

And all I wanna do is hold you tight

I never knew I could be so in love

I feel like I can never get enough

It can’t be wrong because it feels

so right

That’s why I love you all day – all night

Any one can see

All I wanna be is by your side

And I don’t care what they say, baby

I love your way with me..

Hangin' On For Dear Life

Written by Peter Cox /Richard Drummie

My, my – how things have changed

All of my friends family men

PC and PTA

And no one’s coming out to play

They think I’ve got it made

And so I smile, and I pretend

Yeah I’m a lucky guy

But on the inside..

I’m just hangin’ on for dear life

Waiting for the wind to change

Running in circles

Trying to make a getaway

Hangin’ on for dear life

Gettin’ harder every day

Tryin’ to get you off my mind

Ever since you went away

Maybe it’s been too long

For me to say that I was wrong

But if it’s not too late

I wanna set the record straight

Why try to hide the truth?

You know that I could never lie to you

You can see behind my smile

You can see inside..

I’m just hangin’ on baby

Waiting for the wind to change

Round and round

Got to make a getaway

Hangin’ on

Gets harder every day

I can’t get you off my mind

Ever since you went away..
