Don't Look Down
How much longer ‘til the
curtain rises ?
First night stage fright
always hypnotizes
Leading ladies never think about it
Live without it
Try to hide your fear of falling
Keep your eyes on me…I’m calling
Don’t look down girl
You know you’re holding aces
Don’t look down girl
Don’t give the game away
One more heartbeat and you
walk the wire
Why wait? It’s too late to
put out the fire
Almost strangers …can you
stop deceiving
Start believing
Try to hide your fear of falling
Keep your eyes on me…I’m calling
Even when you feel you can’t go on
Laughing at the rain you fool no one
If you don’t want to lose what you
have found
Then don’t look down
Changing partners is just substitution
It’s no solution
Try to hide your fear of falling
Keep your eyes on me… I’m calling
S.O.S
Watching your window
Across the street we share
Eyes on your shadow
You are unaware…unaware
Picture a stranger
Footsteps in gaberdine
You sense the danger
Something unforeseen
Burning fires on your shore
Never opened any door
I’m wasting my time
You don’t hear my S.O.S.
The perfect crime
To answer your S.O.S.
Leave you in silence
Change my identity
Second appearance
I will set you free
Burning fires on your shore
Never opened any door
Watching your window
Across the street we share
Eyes on your shadow
You are unaware
Burning fires on your shore
Never opened any door
Eye To Eye
Maybe it’s the wrong time
But when is the right time to say I lied?
I’ve been keeping secrets
Could this be the last time
we say goodbye?
(Here we are…)
Eye to eye…no conversation
You know what I’m going to say
Eye to eye it’s a sad situation
Girl…have I thrown it away?
I was missing you, missing you
I needed someone to comfort me
When you closed the door baby
How could I know that I still
had the key?
Your love…never thought that I
would lose it
My love…won’t you tell me what it
takes to prove it?
All I want is your love
It’s all up to you girl
I just couldn’t keep it to myself
She was nothing to me
And you know in your heart
I don’t want anyone else
Goodbye Girl
Footsteps echo on familiar streets
Crossing bridges never burned
I am tired of playing hide and seek
Is this all that I have learned?
Looking for a diamond in the dark
I was sure you were the one
You held me spellbound while you
made your mark
Now the damage has been done
Goodbye Girl
It’s a game we play every time we say
Goodbye Girl
You hypnotize…I can’t say goodbye
I’m afraid when I turn out the light
Words you say while you’re asleep
Where you were and what you
did last night
Those are secrets you can keep
Tied to you blood on the wire
Don’t you know you push me much too far…
Just who do you think you are?
I can’t escape…must all roads lead to Rome?
Every time I say goodbye
You hypnotize…
Footsteps echo on familiar streets
Crossing bridges never burned
I am tired of playing hide and seek
Is this all that I have learned?
I Want To Hear It From You
There’s a rumour I have heard
That it’s over – That’s the word
You have found somebody new
Now I need
To hear you say it’s not true
I call you up on the phone
No reply – No one home
On my own and out of touch
I want to talk to you
I think you owe me that much
I want to hear it from you
(Time to showdown)
I want to hear it from you
(Here’s the lowdown)
I want to hear you say
So long, baby, goodbye
There’s a smile on your face
But your eyes give you away
If I’m wasting precious time
Why don’t you play your hand
Is this the end of the line?
Years from now
You will remember
Someday you’ll feel like I do
Someone will twist the knife in you
In your hunger to be free
You have made a fool of me
I can take the letting go
But it hurts to find
That I’m the last to know
There’s a rumour I have heard
That it’s over – That’s the word
You have found somebody new
Now I need
To hear you say it’s not true
Faithful
Don’t cry baby
Kiss me and say farewell
Nothing’s going to break this spell
And if you’re thinking time will tell
I want you to know..
Every minute of every single day
Even when I’m miles away
I’ll keep the promises I made
I want you to know…
I will be faithful to my lover’s prayer
Faithful- and I don’t care
If the world around us gives up on love
I will make you see
You can count on me
I will be faithful-
Faithful to my lover’s prayer
Listen baby
You can lean on me
Though we sail on stormy seas
Nothing good comes easily
And I won’t let you down..
I will be faithful to my lover’s prayer
Faithful- and I don’t care
If the world around us gives up on love
I will make you see
You can count on me
I will be faithful-
Faithful to my lover’s prayer
Baby you can lean on me
You can lean on me..
Trust me baby
This is not goodbye
There’s no need for you to cry
What we’ve got’s too strong
To be denied..
I will be faithful to my lover’s prayer
Faithful-and I don’t care
If the world around us gives up on love
I will make you see
You can count on me
I will be faithful to my lover’s prayer
Faithful to the dream we share
If the world around us gives up on love
I will make you see
You can count on me
I will be faithful
Faithful to my lover’s prayer
Faithful to the dream we share..
What You Won't Do For Love
I guess you wonder where I’ve been
I searched to find the love within
And I came back to let you know
Got a thing for you and I can’t let go
My friends wonder what is
wrong with me
But I’m in a daze from your
love you see
And I came back to let you know
Got a thing for you and I can’ let go
Some people go around the world
for love
But they may never find what
they dream of
What you won’t do..
Do for love
You’ve tried everything but you
won’t give up
In my world-only you
Make me do for love
What I would not do
My friends wonder what is
wrong with me
But I’m in a daze from your
love you see
And I came back to let you know
Got a thing for you and I can’t let go
And though I only want the best it’s true
I can’t believe the things I do for you
What you won’t do
Do for love
You’ve tried everything but you
won’t give up
In my world-only you
Make me do for love
What I would not do
What you won’t do
Do for love
You’ve tried everything but you
won’t give up
In my world-only you. only you
Make me do for love
What I would not do
Make me do for love
What I would not do
Make me do for love..
What you won’t do
Do for love
You’ve tried everything but you
won’t give up
In my world-only you
Make me do for love
What I would not do
Call Me
Face to face
My reflection in your eyes
I was scared to say too much
Perfect Strangers in perfect worlds apart
Almost close enough to touch
Staring at my shoes
Feeling so confused
Shot down without a gun
Victim of a hit and run
Call me – call me
No time to hesitate –
we must communicate
Call me – call me
Won’t you call this number now
Mesmerised
I go back to where we met
A reconstruction of the crime
I can’t track you down
Nowhere to be found
Now my one shot at success
Is the power of the press
Worlds apart – we are worlds apart
Watch this space
There’s a message here for you
No need to read between the lines
I am inside out
There can be no doubt
I want you and no-one else
Please identify yourself
A Taste Of Things To Come
I need a taste
Of what you keep hidden
Got to give it up
For the working man
The sweetest fruit
Is the fruit forbidden
Something in your smile
Says you understand
You can pump me up
You can let me down
You can sidestep
But you know what I need
I need a taste of things to come
I need a taste of things to come
(make me happy)
I need a taste on the tip of my tongue
I need a taste of things to come
I need a taste
Of what I’ve been missing
A little bit of love
Just to get me through
I’m on my knees
But you keep me wishing
There’s a part of me
That needs a part of you
You can pump me up
You can let me down
You can sidestep
But you know what I need..
I need a taste of things to come
I need a taste of things to come
(make me happy)
I need a taste on the tip of my tongue
I need a taste of things to come
You’ve been holding out
I’ve been holding on
’cause I’ve got you in my sights
I don’t want to let go
But I can’t wait another day
It’s got to be tonight.. girl
You know what I need..
I need a taste of things to come
Tracks Of My Tears
People say I’m the life of the party
’cause I tell a joke or two
Although I might be laughing loud and hearty
Deep inside I’m blue
So take a good look at my face
You’ll see my smile looks out of place
If you look closer, it’s easy to trace
The tracks of my tears
I need you, need you
Since you left me if you see me with another girl
Seeming like I’m having fun
Although she may be cute, she’s just a substitute
’cause you’re the permanent one
So take a good look at my face
You’ll see my smile looks out of place
If you look closer, it’s easy to trace
The tracks of my tears
Oh oh oh oh, I need you, need you
I’m masquerading
(Inside) my hope is fading
(Just a clown), ooh yeah
Since you put me down, my smile is my make up
I wear since my break up with you
Baby, take a good look at my face
You’ll see my smile looks out of place
If you look closer, it’s easy to trace
The tracks of my tears
Now, baby
Baby, baby, take a good look at my face
You’ll see my smile looks out of place
If you look closer, it’s easy
The tracks of my tears
The tracks of my tears
People say I’m the life of the party
’cause I tell a joke or two
Although I might be laughing, girl
Deep inside I’m blue
I’m blue
The King Of Wishful Thinking
I don’t need to fall at your feet
Just ‘cause you cut me to the bone
And I won’t miss the way that you kiss me
We were never carved in stone
If I don’t listen to the talk of the town
Then maybe I can fool myself..
I’ll get over you.. I know I will
I’ll pretend my ship’s not sinking
And I’ll tell myself I’m over you
‘cause I’m the king of wishful thinking
I am the king of wishful thinking
I refuse to give into my blues
That’s not how it’s going to be
And I deny the tears in my eyes
I don’t want to let you see.. no
That you have made a hole in my heart
And now I’ve got to fool myself..
I’ll get over you. I know I will
I’ll pretend my ship’s not sinking
And I’ll tell myself I’m over you
‘cause I’m the king of
wishful thinking
I’ll get over you.. I know I will
I’ll pretend my ship’s not sinking
And I’ll tell myself I’m over you
’cause I’m the king of wishful thinking
I will never, never shed a tear for you
I’ll get over you
If I don’t listen to the talk of the town
Then maybe I can fool myself
I’ll get over you.. I know I will
I’ll pretend my ship’s not sinking
And I’ll tell myself I’m over you
‘cause I’m the king of wishful
thinking..
I’m the king of wishful thinking
I’ll get over you.. I know I will
You made a hole in my heart
But I won’t shed a tear for you
I’ll be the king of wishful thinking
I’ll get over you..
I’ll pretend my heart’s still beating
‘cause I’ve got no more tears for you
I am the king of wishful thinking..
The Sun And The Moon
My friend the night never lets me down
But I can’t keep dreaming for ever
I need a picture for this empty frame
Tell me the waiting is over
‘cause I can see myself in you
we are leaves in the wind
but together we can light up the sky
I’ll tell you why…baby
I will be the sun.. you’ll be the moon
Won’t you let me be the one
To shine a light on you?
The day that we’re together
Can’t come too soon
And baby I will be the sun..
you’ll be the moon
You’ll be the moon
I’ve been searching for a desert bloom
And I’ve found my one in a million
So when the river is a raging flood
I’ll be the rock that you stand on
The years of talking to myself
Were like leaves in the wind
From the moment I looked into your eyes
I’ll tell you why.. baby
I will be the sun.. you’ll be the moon
Won’t you let me be the one
To shine a light on you?
The day that we’re together
Can’t come too soon
And baby I will be the sun..
you’ll be the moon
You’ll be the moon every midnight
When I’m scared of the dark
You will be there, baby
To take care of me
And I’ll be the sun when you’re sleeping
I will watch over you
I will hold you close and keep you
safe forever…
Forever girl…
‘cause I can see myself in you
We are leaves in the wind
But together we can light up the sky
Girl together we can light up the sky
I’ll tell you why…
I will be the sun … you’ll be the moon
We Close Our Eyes
Inside, everyone hides one desire
Outside no one would know
Danger, close to the edge of the knife
Safer not to let go
And while we miss chances
You can almost hear time
slipping away
We close our eyes we never
lose a game
Imagination never lets us
take the blame
We close our eyes to see
the final frame
We close our eyes to time
slipping away
No Show…Wednesday girl
waits with the wine
She knows just what to say
While no one listens
You can almost hear time
slipping away
We close our eyes we never
lose a game
Imagination never lets us
take the blame
We close our eyes to see
the final frame
We close our eyes and…..
We can talk to strangers
We are burning with the spark
And we can walk on water
We are tigers in the dark
We are burning !
We close our eyes
Heroes never give in to the night
He knows how far he can run
And as he surrenders
You can almost hear time
slipping away
Hangin' On For Dear Life
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..
I got no one I can run to
No one to turn to – I know
That’s the price I gotta pay
Every minute every day
I got nothing to come home to
Living without you
I’m hangin’ on for dear life
Hangin’ on
You could always see behind my smile
You can see inside..
All Day All Night
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..
