1. I'M STEPPING OUT

Woke up this morning blues around my head
No need to ask the reason why
Went to the kitchen and lit a cigarette
Blew my worries to the sky

I'm stepping out
I'm stepping out
I'm stepping out
I'm stepping out

If it don't feel right you don't have to do it
Just leave a message on the phone and tell them to screw it
After all is said and done you can't go pleasing everyone
So screw it

I'm stepping out
I'm stepping out
I'm stepping out baby
I'm stepping out

Baby's sleeping the cats have all been blessed
Ain't nothing doing on TV summer repeats
Put on my space suit I got to look my best
I'm going out to do the city

I'm stepping out
I'm stepping out
I'm stepping out babe
I'm stepping out boogie

I'm stepping out hold it down
I'm stepping out
I'm stepping out
Gotta gotta gotta gotta get out
I'm stepping out babe
Just awhile
Ain't been out for days


2. SLEEPLESS NIGHT

Sleepless night
The moon is bright
All I'm asking for is
Three minute love

Legs
What am I going to do with my legs
They are so hot, they won't stay on the cot
And they are screaming

Sleepless night
All I'm asking for is
Three minute love

Head
What am I going to do with my head
It's so light, it just gives me the fright
It's full of champagne and dreams

Sleepless night
All, all I'm asking for is
Three minute love

This brush must sell like crazy
I mean there's a lot of lonely people out there
I wanna go to the ball
I wanna give it all, I'll take it all

Sleepless night
All I'm asking for is
What am I asking for


3. I DON’T WANNA FACE IT

Say you're looking for a place to go
Where nobody knows your name
You're looking for oblivion
With one
Eye on the Hall of Fame

I don't wanna face it oh no
I don't wanna face it no no no no
Well I can dish it out
But I just can't take it

Say you're looking for some peace and love
Leader of a big old band
You wanna save humanity
But it's people that you just can't stand

I don't wanna face it oh no
I don't wanna face it no no no no
Well I can sing for my supper
But I just can't make it

Well now you're looking for a world of truth
Trying to find a better way
The time has come to see yourself
You always look the other way

I don't wanna face it oh no
I don't wanna face it no no no no
Well I can see the promised land
And I know I can make it

I don't wanna face it I know
I don't wanna face it oh no
I don't wanna face it oh no
I don't wanna face it

I don't wanna face it
I just can't face it no more
Every time I look in the mirror
I don't see anybody there


4. DON’T BE SCARED

Don't be scared
Don't be scared
Don't be scared to love
Better to love than never love at all
Don't be scared

Don't be shy
Don't be shy
Don't be shy to tell
You may lose the chance to tell
Don't be shy

When your hearts are lit
Drop your survival kit
Then you never have to
Run or split

Sun in the east
Moon in the west
This boat's moving slow
There's no land in sight at all
Away we go

Don't be scared
Don't be scared
Don't be scared to love
It's better to love than never love at all
Don't be scared


5. NOBODY TOLD ME

Everybody's talking and no one says a word
Everybody's making love and no one really cares
There's nazis in the bathroom just below the stairs
Always something happening and nothing going on
There's always something cooking and nothing in the pot
They're starving back in China so finish what you got

Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Strange days indeed, strange days indeed

Everybody's running and no one makes a move
Everyone's a winner and nothing left to lose
There's a little yellow idol to the north of Katmandu
Everybody's flying and no one leaves the ground
Everybody's crying and no one makes a sound
There's a place for us in the movies you just gotta lay around

Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Strange days indeed, most peculiar, mama

Everybody's smoking and no one's getting high
Everybody's flying and never touch the sky
There's a UFO over New York and I ain't too surprised

Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Strange days indeed, most peculiar, mama


6. O' SANITY

It's only sane to be insane
Psychotic builds a castle and neurotic lives in it
I don't know what to do with my sanity
When the world's at the verge of calamity

O' sanity
O' sanity
What am I to do with you
Drink up, shoot up, anything you please
But you're always standing behind me like a devil in hell

O' sanity
Sanity
Why don't you let me go
Let go, let go, cut it out


7. BORROWED TIME

When I was younger
Living confusion and deep dispair
When I was younger ah hah
Living illusion of freedom and power

When I was younger
Full of ideas and broken dreams my friend
When I was younger ah hah
Everything simple but not so clear

Living on borrowed time
Without a thought for tomorrow
Living on borrowed time
Without a thought for tomorrow

Now I am older
The more that I see the less that I know for sure
Now I am older
The future is brighter and now is the hour

Living on borrowed time
Without a thought for tomorrow
Living on borrowed time
Without a thought for tomorrow

Good to be older
Would not exchange a single day or a year
Good to be older
Less complications everything clear

Living on borrowed time
Without a thought for tomorrow
Living on borrowed time
Without a thought for tomorrow


8. YOUR HANDS

Anatano te, konnani kireina
Anatano te, yumenimade miru
Your hands, so beautiful
Your hands, I even dream about them

Anatano hade, konnani atsui
Anatano hade, yumenimade miru
Your skin, so hot
Your skin, I even dream about it

Ichinichi ni
Nando attemo aitarinai
Isshoni
Nando attemo aitarinai

In a day
No matter how many times we meet
It's not enough
In a lifetime
No matter how many times we meet
It's not enough

Isshoni
Nando attemo aitarinai
Ikusei ni
Isshoni
Nando attemo aitarinai.

In a lifetime
No matter how many times we meet
It's not enough
In many lifetimes
No matter how many times we meet
It's not enough

Futarino koi konnani tsuyoi
Futarino koi konnani moroi
Futarino koi itsumademo

Our love so strong
Our love so frail
Our love forever

Konnani kireina
Anatano me
Your eyes, so beautiful
Your eyes


9. MY LITTLE FLOWER PRINCESS (FORGIVE ME)

Forgive me, my little flower princess
For crushing your delicateness
Forgive me, if you could forgive me

Forgive me, my little flower princess
For selfishness
Forgive me, forgive me

Well, I know there is no way to repay you
Whatever it takes I will try to
The rest of my life I will thank you
Thank you, thank you, my little

If you'll forgive me, my little flower princess
Never too late unless you can't forgive

Time is on our side
Let's not waste another minute
'Cause I love you, my little friend
I really love you

Give me just one more chance
And I'll show you
Take up the dance where we left off
The rest of our life is the, my little

I'm home


10. LET ME COUNT THE WAYS

Let me count the ways how I love you
It's like that gentle wind you feel at dawn
It's like that first sun that hits the dew
It's like that cloud with a gold lining telling us softly
That it'll be a good day, a good day for us
Thank you, thank you, thank you

Let me count the ways how I miss you
It's like that oak tree in my childhood garden
It's like that first summer I spent in Egypt
It's like that warm evening you read to me
Both knowing deeply that it's a good time, a good time for us
Thank you, thank you, thank you

Let me count the ways how I see you
It's like that lake in the mountain you heard about
It's like that autumn sky that stays so blue
It's like that air around me that holds me gently
Whispering strongly that you're always there, always for me
Thank you, thank you, thank you


11. GROW OLD WITH ME

Grow old along with me
The best is yet to be
When our time has come
We will be as one
God bless our love
God bless our love

Grow old along with me
Two branches of one tree
Face the setting sun
When the day is done
God bless our love
God bless our love

Spending our lives together
Man and wife together
World without end
World without end

Grow old along with me
Whatever fate decrees
We will see it through
For our love is true
God bless our love
God bless our love


12. YOU'RE THE ONE

Mountains may move, river may run
But you make me be myself, you make me be
How do I tell you, how do I tell
You're the one

Stars may move, time may run
But you make me free myself
But you make me free
How do I tell you, how do I tell
You're the one, you're the one

In the world's eye, we were Laurel and Hardy
In our minds, we were Heathcliff and Cathy
In a moment of wisdom
We were a wizard and a witch

In a moment of freedom
We were Don Quijote and Sancho
In reality, we were just a boy and a girl
Who never looked back

How do I tell you
How do I tell you
How do I tell you
How do I tell you
How do I tell you
How do I tell you
How can I tell you
How could I tell you

You're the one
You're the one
You're the one
You're the one


13. EVERY MAN HAS A WOMAN WHO LOVES HIM

Every man has a woman who loves him
In rain or shine or life and death
If he finds her in this lifetime
He will know when he presses his ear to her breast

Why do I roam when I know you're the one
Why do I laugh when I feel like crying

Every woman has a man who loves her
Rise or fall of her life and death
If she finds him in this life time
She will know when she looks into his eyes

Why do I roam when I know you're the one
Why do I run when I feel like holding you

Every man has a woman who loves him
If he finds her in this lifetime
He will know


14. I'M STEPPING OUT

Woke up this morning blues around my head
No need to ask the reason why
Went to the kitchen and lit a cigarette
Blew my worries to the sky

I'm stepping out
I'm stepping out
I'm stepping out
I'm stepping out

If it don't feel right you don't have to do it
Just leave a message on the phone and tell them to screw it
After all is said and done you can't go pleasing everyone
So screw it

I'm stepping out
I'm stepping out
I'm stepping out baby
I'm stepping out

Baby's sleeping the cats have all been blessed
Ain't nothing doing on TV (summer repeats)
Put on my space suit I got to look my best
I'm going out to do the city

I'm stepping out
I'm stepping out
I'm stepping out babe
I'm stepping out boogie

I'm stepping out hold it down
I'm stepping out
I'm stepping out
Gotta gotta gotta gotta get out
I'm stepping out babe
Just awhile
Ain't been out for days


15. I'M MOVING ON

Save your sweet talk for when you score
Keep your monday kisses for your glass lady
I want the truth and nothing more
I'm moving on, moving on you're getting phony

You didn't have to tell a white lie
You know you scored me for life
Don't stick your fingers in my pie
You know I'll see through your jive
I want the truth and nothing more
I'm moving on, moving on you're getting phony

When you were angry you had love in your eyes
when you were sad you had a dream in your voice
But now your giving me your window smile
I'm moving on, moving on you're getting phony
