Lyrics
Disc 1
1. HOLD THE LINE
Its not in the way that you hold me, its not in the way you say you care
Its not in the way youve been treating my friends
Its not in the way that you stayed till the end
Its not in the way you look or the things that you say that youll do
Chorus:
Hold the line, love isnt always on time, oh oh oh
Hold the line, love isnt always on time, oh oh oh
Its not in the words that you told me, girl
Its not in the way you say youre mine, ooh
Its not in the way that you came back to me
Its not in the way that your love set me free
Its not in the way you look or the things that you say that youll do
Chorus
(instrumental break)
Its not in the words that you told me
Its not in the way you say youre mine, ooh
Its not in the way that you came back to me
Its not in the way that your love set me free
Its not in the way you look or the things that you say that youll do
Chorus - love isnt always on time
Hold the line, love isnt always on time -
Love isnt always, love isnt always on time
Hold the line, love isnt always on time, love isnt always on time
Love isnt always on time, love isnt always on time, oh oh oh
2. ROSANNA
All I wanna do when I wake up in the morning is see you eyes
Rosanna, Rosanna
I never thought that a girl like you could ever care for me, Rosanna
All I wanna do in the middle of the evening is hold you tight
Rosanna, Rosanna
I didn't know you were looking for more than I could ever be
Not quite a year since she went away, Rosanna yeah
Now she's gone and I have to say
Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna yeah
Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna yeah
I can see your face still shining through the window on the other side
Rosanna, Rosanna
I didn't know that a girl like you could make me feel so sad, Rosanna
All I wanna take is a night you'll never ever have to compromise
Rosanna, Rosanna
I never thought that losing you could ever hurt so bad
Not quite a year since she went away, Rosanna yeah
Now she's gone and I have to say
Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna yeah
Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna yeah
Not quite a year since she went away, Rosanna yeah
Now she's gone and I have to say
Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna yeah
Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna yeah
Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna yeah
Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna yeah
3. THE SEVENTH ONE
(Instrumental)
4. IF YOU BELONG TO ME
I left you crying on that angry morning
You know I lied
I'll always run from anything that loves me
To my safe side
My world circles 'round a different sun
That's all burned away
I know that you're the only one
Now I'm walking down some distant street
And I know your touch is out of reach
Girl you belong to me I know
And it was wrong for me to ever let you go
Girl you belong to me I know
[ Find more Lyrics at www.mp3lyrics.org/R6Ce ]
Everybody has a lonely moment
They can't explain
And everybody wants to feed their hunger
Without the pain
There's no shadows in my hiding place
I'm so locked away
Now I wish that I could see your face
I know I hurt you when you say we're through
I never really will get over you 'cause
Girl you belong to me I know
And it was wrong for me to ever let you go
Girl you belong to me I know
[ Instrumental brake ]
Girl you belong to me I know
And it was wrong for me to ever let you go
[ Repeat with fade ]
I left you crying on that angry morning.
You know I lied; I'll always run from anything that loves me to my safe side. My world circles 'round a different sun, that's all burned away. I know that you're the only one. Now I'm walking down some distant street, and I know your touch is out of reach.
Girl you belong to me I know. And it was wrong for me to ever let you go. Girl you belong to me I know.
Everybody has a lonely moment, they can't explain. And everybody wants to feed their hunger, without the pain.
There's no shadows in my hiding place-I'm so locked away. Now I wish that I could see your face. I know I hurt you when you say we're through. I never really will get over you 'cause...
Girl you belong to me I know, and it was wrong for me to ever let you go. Girl you belong to me I know.
Girl you belong to me I know.
And it was wrong for me to ever let you go.
5. HOLYANNA
Your hair's a mess you better put on a dress
And get your feet back on the ground
You fix your eyes for some city guys
Who wouldn't save you if you drowned
You hang on Forty-second street
And do your homework in the bar
Saint Helen says you're missin' school
And I'm wonderin' where you are
Holyanna
Holyanna
Girl, what you do to me
Holyanna
Holyanna
Girl, you're a blue-eyed mystery
You read your books until nobody looks
And then you slip out after dark
You steal my love then say you're sorry
And do your penance in the park
You fooled your mother when you skipped ballet
To paint your face for the midnight show
And in the morning you knelt beside your bed
And prayed she'd never know
Holyanna
Holyanna
Girl, what you do to me
Holyanna
Holyanna
Girl, you're a blue-eyed mystery
6. ONLY YOU
Waiting for you again, seems like this never ends
I close my eyes and I see your face, and I see it all fading away
Woke up before you again, you're still asleep I can't pretend
I feel like I'm losing you, and I am trying to make everything right
Only you, only me, say the words I want to hear for all eternity
Only you, holding my heart in your hands
Only me, still trying to understand, whoa no oh oh
If I could have a second chance, maybe change the circumstance
Imagine if the dream came true, we could start it all over tonight
Only you, only me, say the words I want to hear for all eternity
Only you, holding my heart in your hands
Only me, still trying to understand, whoa no oh oh
Only you, only me, say the words I want to hear for all eternity
Only you, holding my heart in your hands
Only me, still trying to understand, whoa no oh oh
Only me, say the words I want to hear for all eternity
Only you, holding my heart in your hands
Only me, still trying to understand, whoa no oh oh
7. I'LL BE OVER YOU
Some people live their dreams
Some people close their eyes
Some people's destiny
Passes by
There are no guarantees
There are no alibis
That's how our love must be
Don't ask why
It takes some time
God knows how long
I know that I can forget you
As soon as my heart stops breakin'
Anticipating
As soon as forever is through
I'll be over you
Remembering times gone by
Promises we once made
What are the reasons why
Nothing stays the same
There were the nights holding you close
Someday I'll try to forget them
As soon as my heart stops breakin'
Anticipating
As soon as forever is through
I'll be over you
8. STOP LOVING YOU
Reflections in my mind, thoughts I can't define
My heart is racing and the night goes on
I can almost hear a laugh, coming from your photograph
Funny how a look can share a thousand meanings
Well-intended lies, contemplating alibies
Is it really you, or is it me I'm blaming
A distant memory flashes over me
Even though you're gone, I feel you deep inside
Dance beneath the light with that look in your eyes
I can't stop loving you, time passes quickly and chances are few
I won't stop till I'm through loving you, girl
There's a window in a heart, I've tried to look through from the start
You're never really sure what someone else is thinking
Someone's broken something new, another altered point of view
Just a certain someone's conscience playing
I held it in my hand, I did not understand
What lives inside the wind that cries her name
Tried to catch a shooting star, what seems so close can't be that far
I'm living in a dream that's never ending
Dance beneath the light with that look in your eyes
I can't stop loving you, time passes quickly and chances are few
I won't stop till I'm through loving you, girl
Dancing with that look that's in your eyes
I can't stop loving you, time passes quickly and chances are few
I won't stop till I'm through loving you, girl
I can't stop loving you, time passes quickly and chances are few
I won't stop till I'm through loving you, girl
9. HOME OF THE BRAVE
Everything's gonna be alright boys, help is on the way
Hold your head up high now, there's no need to cry now
We're not running anymore
Leave the politics behind boys, they're not working anymore
There's so much more at stake here, it's make or break here
Haven't we been here before - tell me what we're waiting for
You gotta remember, you don't have to be afraid
You still have the freedom to learn, and say what you wanna say
You gotta remember, don't let 'em take away
The land we call the home of the brave
Who sings the song of the people, you don't hear it anymore
I heard it late last summer, to the beat of a different drummer
It never sounded quite like that before
So you're trying to shake this feeling, that trouble's right outside the door
You lie awake each dark night, like a time bomb wound up too tight
A storm in waiting, just offshore - tell me what we're waiting for
You gotta remember, you don't have to be afraid
You still have the freedom to learn, and say what you wanna say
You gotta remember, don't let 'em take away
The land we call the home of the brave
You gotta remember, you don't have to be afraid
You still have the freedom to learn, and say what you wanna say
You gotta remember, don't let 'em take away
The land we call the home of the brave
You gotta remember, you don't have to be afraid
You still have the freedom to learn, and say what you wanna say
You gotta remember, don't let 'em take away
The land we call the home of the brave
10. I WON'T HOLD YOU BACK
If I had another chance tonight
I'd try to tell you that the things we had were right
Time can erase the love we shared
But it gives me time to realize just how much you cared
Now you're gone, I'm really not the same,
I guess I held myself to blame
Time can erase the things we said
But it gives me time to realize that you're the one who's sad
You know I won't hold you back now, the love we had just can't be found
You know I can't hold you back now
Now that I'm alone it gives me time to think about the years that you were mine
Time can erase the love we shared
But it gives me time to realize just how much you cared
You know I won't hold you back now, the love we had just can't be found
You know I can't hold you back now
You know I won't hold you back now, the love we had just can't be found
You know I can't hold you back now, the love we had just can't be found
11. STRAIGHT FOR THE HEART
Boy meets girl on the playground of life
Falls in love for the very first time
Late at night he sees her alone, but she's the type that can never be owned
He can't get her off his mind, but she knows he'll get over her in time
And the world goes round and round
She goes straight for the heart, she serves it sweet and cold
But she goes straight for the heart
It's just the only thing that she's ever known
Boy sees girl on the poor side of town
A city princess with her very own crown
He's too young to be taking such a chance
'Cause she walks the streets in the name of romance
Everywhere she goes he's there and she knows, he's just another fool who cares
And the world goes round and round
She goes straight for the heart, she serves it sweet and cold
But she goes straight for the heart
It's just the only thing that she's ever known
Everywhere she goes he's there and she knows, he's just another fool who cares
And the world goes round and round
She goes straight for the heart, she serves it sweet and cold
But she goes straight for the heart
It's just the only thing that she's ever known
'Cause that's the only thing that she's ever known
'Cause that's the only thing that she's ever known
'Cause that's the only thing that she's ever known
12. CHANGE OF HEART
I got your letter stating I'm the only one
Are you forgetting all the damage that I've done
Are you waiting, contemplating why you changed your mind
Can't push my luck, good ones are getting hard to find
I'm wond'ring now if everything will be the same
I feel so empty knowing I'm the one to blame
And all along I never thought I stood a chance
Those lonely hours, mem'ries of you did enhance
[ Chorus: ]
Deep in the night when I need you so
[ Find more Lyrics at www.mp3lyrics.org/R5x5 ]
You are the light, I can't let you go
You've been the one from the very start
You've got the power girl, to change a heart
You've got the power girl, to change a heart
You've got the power girl, to change a heart
The timing's right for all our diff'rences to end
We've come so far from all the places that we've been
My heart is telling me that you're my closest friend
It's alright, hold on tight, and do it all again
[ Repeat chorus two times ]
You've got the power girl, to change a heart
You've got the power girl, to change a heart (fading)
Disc 2
1. AFRICA
I hear the drums echoing tonight
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
She's coming in 12:30 flight
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation
I stopped an old man along the way
Hoping to find some long forgotten words or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say , "Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you"
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless longing for some solitary company
I know that I must do what's right
As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serangetti
I seek to cure what's deep inside, frightened of this thing that I've become
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
2. LEA
Here's to the few, who fared my love
Only for you, I cared my love
I've given it hope, and I know it's only you
Encased in silence
Here's to the you, who saved my love
Only to you, I gave my love
I've given it thought, and it's not all that appears
Lea, how long will you still want me to want you
In and around you
Lea, my concertina
Will you still want me to want you
Here's to the you, who dared my love
Only with you, I shared my love
I've given it thought, and it's not all that appears
Lea, how long will you still want me to want you
In and around you
Lea, my concertina
Will you still want me to want you
Who cares what the cynics say
I care if only you're on your way
Lea don't let the same be true
Lea do you still want me to want you
3. ONLY THE CHILDREN
We keep hurting each other when words can't be easily said
No understanding or reason, just fear and confusion instead
We need hope for the future, and the young need a chance to survive
No one knows the pain that's felt by the innocent, they're
Fighting to stay alive, can no one see the tears in their eyes
Only the children, only the children cry, only the children
Why do those who have plenty ignore those with nothing at all
Why must the ones just beginning, stand with their backs to the wall
They keep asking for answers and we keep on telling them lies
They only want to understand what they feel inside
The hunger that tears them apart
It's the one thing they've known from the start
Only the children, only the children cry, only the children
Only the children, only the children cry, only the children
4. DON'T CHAIN MY HEART
Tired and frozen, I'm under your spell
I thought I knew you, but now I know you well
I wake up beside you, move across your killing floor
I need my freedom and I see an open door
The room is getting smaller and the walls are closin' in
No one's leavin' and nobody's gettin' in
I try to run, I try to hide, I try to tell you what I'm feelin' inside
Should I stay, should I go
You know I wanna touch you, but there's nothing left to hold
Don't chain my heart (don't chain my heart)
Don't chain my soul (don't chain my soul)
Don't chain my heart (don't chain my heart), 'cause you got to let it go
Looks like trouble, the signs are everywhere
I bend a little but you take more than your share
Crimes of passion, crimes of mortal men
It's a deadly attraction and I won't be fooled again, baby
The storm is coming, the winds begin to rise
Please release me from this house of compromise
All day, all night, your love is like an outlaw waiting till the time is right
Nobody's wrong, no one's to blame
Maybe it's just too hot because we're standin' in the flame
Don't chain my heart (don't chain my heart)
Don't chain my soul (don't chain my soul)
Don't chain my heart (don't chain my heart), 'cause you got to let it go
I'm a victim of your pain and jealousy
I feel like a prisoner and you hold the lock and key
We lost our vision, we lost our paradise
But there's still a part of me I refuse to sacrifice
I try to run, I try to hide, I need to tell you what I'm feelin' inside, baby
Should I stay, should I go
You know I wanna touch you, but there's nothing left to hold
Don't chain my heart (don't chain my heart)
Don't chain my soul (don't chain my soul)
Don't chain my heart (don't chain my heart), 'cause you got to let it go
Don't chain my heart (don't chain my heart)
Don't chain my soul (don't chain my soul)
Don't chain my heart (don't chain my heart), 'cause you got to let it go
5. GYPSY TRAIN
Downtown Jimmy, say you're feelin' kinda blue
It's no problem, this is whatcha gotta do
Telephone your baby, tell her that you're workin' late
Come and pay a visit, please don't hesitate
Come join the party, come along and be our guest
Sit back and let us do the rest, we're the best, yeah
Come on an' meet me at the station, don't pack your bags, just fix your hair

Play a little poker, love when the stakes are high
Lotta nasty women, givin' everyone the eye
Say downtown Jimmy, tell me whatcha need, satisfaction guaranteed
Guaranteed, yeah
It's a perfect situation, it's so nice to have you here
Gotta get up, gotta get in, gotta pull out, happy shiny people everywhere

Feed the fire, let's go one more time again
6. IF IT'S THE LAST NIGHT
I don't know if you'll understand
But I'm hopin' that you'll follow me down to the waterway
I'll be there if you change your mind
Listening to the ticking of the hands on a clock working overtime
If it's the last night it oughta be left for lovin', girl
If it's the last night it oughta be left for lovin', girl
If it's the last night it oughta be left for lovin', girl
Now you're here standing next to me
I've seen your face on every girl that I've held since you went away
It's getting late and I have to know
I'm mending the wings of a heart that was broken not so long ago
If it's the last night it oughta be left for lovin', girl
If it's the last night it oughta be left for lovin', girl
If it's the last night it oughta be left for lovin', girl
[Instrumental break]
If it's the last night it oughta be left for lovin', girl
[repeats 5x]
7. PAMELA
Oh! Yeah.
Side by side, I'll be yours forever
Rain or shine, any kind of weather
There isn't anything I wouldn't do for you
Let's take what's getting old and make it new
Oh, eye to eye, it's a blinding confrontation
You and I, we're a deadly combination
So don't start mixing truth with jealousy
The road we're on is clear as far as I can see
Pamela, don't break this heart of mine
Just remember, it may not heal this time
Pamela, there is no second chance, for the one who leaves it all behind
Black and white always go together
Day and night you're the precious juwel I treasure
Wanting every part of you is not a crime
Or could it be that you're the one who's wrong this time
Pamela, don't break this heart of mine
Just remember, it may not heal this time
Pamela, there is no second chance, for the one who leaves it all behind
All that I love (all that I love)
Thousands of miles away, but always in my heart
Pamela, don't break this heart of mine
Just remember, it may not heal this time
Pamela, there is no second chance, for the one who leaves it all behind
Pamela, don't break this heart of mine
Just remember, it may not heal this time
Pamela, there is no second chance, for the one who leaves it all behind
8. STRANGER IN TOWN
I remember it was late one night
in the middle of a dream
woke up in a pool of sweat
thought I heard a scream
Ran over to the window sill
stuck my head out for a peek
Dressed in black was a man I didn't recognise
running down my back street
My heart skipped a beat
You better watch out, there's a stranger in town
You better watch out, there's a stranger in town
You better watch out when he comes around
Don't make a sound
The morning paper and the head-lines read: Danger to the queen
Buckingham Palace better tighten things up
The son of a bitch is mean.
Vendors on the corner just doin' their job
acting like nothing's new
Scotland Yard's still looking for him
but he doesn't leave a single clue
What can they do?
You better watch out, there's a stranger in town
You better watch out, there's a stranger in town
You better watch out when he comes around
Don't make a sound
Who's this man who fell out of the sky?
What's he done and where's he live?
How can a man who's a criminal be a hero to the kids?
The old couple swear that the Riper's back
they say it's him all right.
The young girl says it's Jesus
and he won't be back again tonight
I wonder who's right?
You better watch out, there's a stranger in town
You better watch out, there's a stranger in town
You better watch out when he comes around
Don't make a sound
You better watch out, there's a stranger in town
You better watch out, there's a stranger in town
You better watch out when he comes around
Don't make a sound
9. CAN'T STAND IT ANY LONGER
Standin' on thin ice
Walkin' on a fine line
Never seem to buy, enough for you
If you're lookin' for a way out
Then you're headed for the right place
Givin' up is something I can't do
Ooh you got sharp claws
Always got your back up
Venom in your eyes, and blood so blue
Hangin' on a black tie
Sippin' on a half shell
Holdin' all the cards, and a joker too
Bridge:
You should have told me sooner
I would have let you go
Now you're driving me crazy
I can't stand it any longer
When you pay the price for freedom
It ain't wrong girl
I can't stand it any longer
Dancin' on hot coals
Playin' with a live wire
Sneakin' out the back door, you're so cool
If you really wanna move on
Then there's nothing left to say
Here's a ticket for the bus stop
I'm no fool
Bridge:
You should have told me sooner
I would have let you go
Now you're driving me crazy
I can't stand it any longer
When you pay the price for freedom
It ain't wrong girl
I can't stand it any longer
(Instrumental brake)
I can't stand it any longer (I can't take it anymore)
When you pay the price for freedom
It ain't wrong girl
I can't stand it, I can't stand it, I can't stand it any longer
I can't stand it any longer (I can't take it anymore)
When you pay the price for freedom
It ain't wrong girl
I can't stand it anymore
I can't take this anymore no
10. JUST CAN'T GET TO YOU
I'm driving' through the rain, just to talk to you again. Please don't run away this tim, until I say what's on my mind.
Tonight I need to stay with you. This time I'm not passing throught. Tear down the walls around your heart, and though I know it's who you are...
I just can't get to you girl. Oh yeah, I just can't get to you. If you won't let me through girl. Oh no, I just can't get to you.
You say you really need me here, so I can't let you disappear. Even though it's getting late, somehow I seem to hesitate.
'Cause I just can't get to you girl. Oh yeah, I just can't get to you...if you won't let me through girl. Oh no, I just can't get to you.
You're afraid that you'll get hurt again. Yes, I knw htat's how it feels. Don't surrender, that's no way to win. Let it go, let me in. 'Cause I just can't get to you. Just can't get to you girl. Oh yeah, just can't get to you. If you won't let me through girl...oh no, I just can't get to you.
Just can't get to you girl. Oh yeah, just can't get to you. You won't let me thfrough girl...oh no, I just can't get to you.
11. TURN BACK
Only the wind sang the words he could hear
Born of the sand washed ashore on a tear
Time wrote the lines on his face like a scroll
Love is a loss to the man with no soul
Run through the darkness he hears - turn back
There's no survivors, you can't turn back
Dreams keep him turning back the years
Raising his sail cast away on his own
Motherless child on a sea all alone
Morpheus calls but they won't lay him down
Creatures of midnight appear with no sound
Run through the darkness he hears - turn back
There's no survivors, you can't turn back
Dreams keep him turning back the years
Run through the darkness, turn back the years, turn back the years
1. HOLD THE LINE
Its not in the way that you hold me, its not in the way you say you care
Its not in the way youve been treating my friends
Its not in the way that you stayed till the end
Its not in the way you look or the things that you say that youll do
Chorus:
Hold the line, love isnt always on time, oh oh oh
Hold the line, love isnt always on time, oh oh oh
Its not in the words that you told me, girl
Its not in the way you say youre mine, ooh
Its not in the way that you came back to me
Its not in the way that your love set me free
Its not in the way you look or the things that you say that youll do
Chorus
(instrumental break)
Its not in the words that you told me
Its not in the way you say youre mine, ooh
Its not in the way that you came back to me
Its not in the way that your love set me free
Its not in the way you look or the things that you say that youll do
Chorus - love isnt always on time
Hold the line, love isnt always on time -
Love isnt always, love isnt always on time
Hold the line, love isnt always on time, love isnt always on time
Love isnt always on time, love isnt always on time, oh oh oh
2. ROSANNA
All I wanna do when I wake up in the morning is see you eyes
Rosanna, Rosanna
I never thought that a girl like you could ever care for me, Rosanna
All I wanna do in the middle of the evening is hold you tight
Rosanna, Rosanna
I didn't know you were looking for more than I could ever be
Not quite a year since she went away, Rosanna yeah
Now she's gone and I have to say
Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna yeah
Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna yeah
I can see your face still shining through the window on the other side
Rosanna, Rosanna
I didn't know that a girl like you could make me feel so sad, Rosanna
All I wanna take is a night you'll never ever have to compromise
Rosanna, Rosanna
I never thought that losing you could ever hurt so bad
Not quite a year since she went away, Rosanna yeah
Now she's gone and I have to say
Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna yeah
Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna yeah
Not quite a year since she went away, Rosanna yeah
Now she's gone and I have to say
Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna yeah
Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna yeah
Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna yeah
Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna yeah

(Instrumental)
4. IF YOU BELONG TO ME
I left you crying on that angry morning
You know I lied
I'll always run from anything that loves me
To my safe side
My world circles 'round a different sun
That's all burned away
I know that you're the only one
Now I'm walking down some distant street
And I know your touch is out of reach
Girl you belong to me I know
And it was wrong for me to ever let you go
Girl you belong to me I know
[ Find more Lyrics at www.mp3lyrics.org/R6Ce ]
Everybody has a lonely moment
They can't explain
And everybody wants to feed their hunger
Without the pain
There's no shadows in my hiding place
I'm so locked away
Now I wish that I could see your face
I know I hurt you when you say we're through
I never really will get over you 'cause
Girl you belong to me I know
And it was wrong for me to ever let you go
Girl you belong to me I know
[ Instrumental brake ]
Girl you belong to me I know
And it was wrong for me to ever let you go
[ Repeat with fade ]
I left you crying on that angry morning.
You know I lied; I'll always run from anything that loves me to my safe side. My world circles 'round a different sun, that's all burned away. I know that you're the only one. Now I'm walking down some distant street, and I know your touch is out of reach.
Girl you belong to me I know. And it was wrong for me to ever let you go. Girl you belong to me I know.
Everybody has a lonely moment, they can't explain. And everybody wants to feed their hunger, without the pain.
There's no shadows in my hiding place-I'm so locked away. Now I wish that I could see your face. I know I hurt you when you say we're through. I never really will get over you 'cause...
Girl you belong to me I know, and it was wrong for me to ever let you go. Girl you belong to me I know.
Girl you belong to me I know.
And it was wrong for me to ever let you go.
5. HOLYANNA
Your hair's a mess you better put on a dress
And get your feet back on the ground
You fix your eyes for some city guys
Who wouldn't save you if you drowned
You hang on Forty-second street
And do your homework in the bar
Saint Helen says you're missin' school
And I'm wonderin' where you are
Holyanna
Holyanna
Girl, what you do to me
Holyanna
Holyanna
Girl, you're a blue-eyed mystery
You read your books until nobody looks
And then you slip out after dark
You steal my love then say you're sorry
And do your penance in the park
You fooled your mother when you skipped ballet
To paint your face for the midnight show
And in the morning you knelt beside your bed
And prayed she'd never know
Holyanna
Holyanna
Girl, what you do to me
Holyanna
Holyanna
Girl, you're a blue-eyed mystery
6. ONLY YOU
Waiting for you again, seems like this never ends
I close my eyes and I see your face, and I see it all fading away
Woke up before you again, you're still asleep I can't pretend
I feel like I'm losing you, and I am trying to make everything right
Only you, only me, say the words I want to hear for all eternity
Only you, holding my heart in your hands
Only me, still trying to understand, whoa no oh oh
If I could have a second chance, maybe change the circumstance
Imagine if the dream came true, we could start it all over tonight
Only you, only me, say the words I want to hear for all eternity
Only you, holding my heart in your hands
Only me, still trying to understand, whoa no oh oh
Only you, only me, say the words I want to hear for all eternity
Only you, holding my heart in your hands
Only me, still trying to understand, whoa no oh oh
Only me, say the words I want to hear for all eternity
Only you, holding my heart in your hands
Only me, still trying to understand, whoa no oh oh
7. I'LL BE OVER YOU
Some people live their dreams
Some people close their eyes
Some people's destiny
Passes by
There are no guarantees
There are no alibis
That's how our love must be
Don't ask why
It takes some time
God knows how long
I know that I can forget you
As soon as my heart stops breakin'
Anticipating
As soon as forever is through
I'll be over you
Remembering times gone by
Promises we once made
What are the reasons why
Nothing stays the same
There were the nights holding you close
Someday I'll try to forget them
As soon as my heart stops breakin'
Anticipating
As soon as forever is through
I'll be over you
8. STOP LOVING YOU
Reflections in my mind, thoughts I can't define
My heart is racing and the night goes on
I can almost hear a laugh, coming from your photograph
Funny how a look can share a thousand meanings
Well-intended lies, contemplating alibies
Is it really you, or is it me I'm blaming
A distant memory flashes over me
Even though you're gone, I feel you deep inside
Dance beneath the light with that look in your eyes
I can't stop loving you, time passes quickly and chances are few
I won't stop till I'm through loving you, girl
There's a window in a heart, I've tried to look through from the start
You're never really sure what someone else is thinking
Someone's broken something new, another altered point of view
Just a certain someone's conscience playing
I held it in my hand, I did not understand
What lives inside the wind that cries her name
Tried to catch a shooting star, what seems so close can't be that far
I'm living in a dream that's never ending
Dance beneath the light with that look in your eyes
I can't stop loving you, time passes quickly and chances are few
I won't stop till I'm through loving you, girl
Dancing with that look that's in your eyes
I can't stop loving you, time passes quickly and chances are few
I won't stop till I'm through loving you, girl
I can't stop loving you, time passes quickly and chances are few
I won't stop till I'm through loving you, girl
9. HOME OF THE BRAVE
Everything's gonna be alright boys, help is on the way
Hold your head up high now, there's no need to cry now
We're not running anymore
Leave the politics behind boys, they're not working anymore
There's so much more at stake here, it's make or break here
Haven't we been here before - tell me what we're waiting for
You gotta remember, you don't have to be afraid
You still have the freedom to learn, and say what you wanna say
You gotta remember, don't let 'em take away
The land we call the home of the brave
Who sings the song of the people, you don't hear it anymore
I heard it late last summer, to the beat of a different drummer
It never sounded quite like that before
So you're trying to shake this feeling, that trouble's right outside the door
You lie awake each dark night, like a time bomb wound up too tight
A storm in waiting, just offshore - tell me what we're waiting for
You gotta remember, you don't have to be afraid
You still have the freedom to learn, and say what you wanna say
You gotta remember, don't let 'em take away
The land we call the home of the brave
You gotta remember, you don't have to be afraid
You still have the freedom to learn, and say what you wanna say
You gotta remember, don't let 'em take away
The land we call the home of the brave
You gotta remember, you don't have to be afraid
You still have the freedom to learn, and say what you wanna say
You gotta remember, don't let 'em take away
The land we call the home of the brave
10. I WON'T HOLD YOU BACK
If I had another chance tonight
I'd try to tell you that the things we had were right
Time can erase the love we shared
But it gives me time to realize just how much you cared
Now you're gone, I'm really not the same,
I guess I held myself to blame
Time can erase the things we said
But it gives me time to realize that you're the one who's sad
You know I won't hold you back now, the love we had just can't be found
You know I can't hold you back now
Now that I'm alone it gives me time to think about the years that you were mine
Time can erase the love we shared
But it gives me time to realize just how much you cared
You know I won't hold you back now, the love we had just can't be found
You know I can't hold you back now
You know I won't hold you back now, the love we had just can't be found
You know I can't hold you back now, the love we had just can't be found
11. STRAIGHT FOR THE HEART
Boy meets girl on the playground of life
Falls in love for the very first time
Late at night he sees her alone, but she's the type that can never be owned
He can't get her off his mind, but she knows he'll get over her in time
And the world goes round and round
She goes straight for the heart, she serves it sweet and cold
But she goes straight for the heart
It's just the only thing that she's ever known
Boy sees girl on the poor side of town
A city princess with her very own crown
He's too young to be taking such a chance
'Cause she walks the streets in the name of romance
Everywhere she goes he's there and she knows, he's just another fool who cares
And the world goes round and round
She goes straight for the heart, she serves it sweet and cold
But she goes straight for the heart
It's just the only thing that she's ever known
Everywhere she goes he's there and she knows, he's just another fool who cares
And the world goes round and round
She goes straight for the heart, she serves it sweet and cold
But she goes straight for the heart
It's just the only thing that she's ever known
'Cause that's the only thing that she's ever known
'Cause that's the only thing that she's ever known
'Cause that's the only thing that she's ever known
12. CHANGE OF HEART
I got your letter stating I'm the only one
Are you forgetting all the damage that I've done
Are you waiting, contemplating why you changed your mind
Can't push my luck, good ones are getting hard to find
I'm wond'ring now if everything will be the same
I feel so empty knowing I'm the one to blame
And all along I never thought I stood a chance
Those lonely hours, mem'ries of you did enhance
[ Chorus: ]
Deep in the night when I need you so
[ Find more Lyrics at www.mp3lyrics.org/R5x5 ]
You are the light, I can't let you go
You've been the one from the very start
You've got the power girl, to change a heart
You've got the power girl, to change a heart
You've got the power girl, to change a heart
The timing's right for all our diff'rences to end
We've come so far from all the places that we've been
My heart is telling me that you're my closest friend
It's alright, hold on tight, and do it all again
[ Repeat chorus two times ]
You've got the power girl, to change a heart
You've got the power girl, to change a heart (fading)
Disc 2
1. AFRICA
I hear the drums echoing tonight
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
She's coming in 12:30 flight
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation
I stopped an old man along the way
Hoping to find some long forgotten words or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say , "Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you"
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless longing for some solitary company
I know that I must do what's right
As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serangetti
I seek to cure what's deep inside, frightened of this thing that I've become
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
2. LEA
Here's to the few, who fared my love
Only for you, I cared my love
I've given it hope, and I know it's only you
Encased in silence
Here's to the you, who saved my love
Only to you, I gave my love
I've given it thought, and it's not all that appears
Lea, how long will you still want me to want you
In and around you
Lea, my concertina
Will you still want me to want you
Here's to the you, who dared my love
Only with you, I shared my love
I've given it thought, and it's not all that appears
Lea, how long will you still want me to want you
In and around you
Lea, my concertina
Will you still want me to want you
Who cares what the cynics say
I care if only you're on your way
Lea don't let the same be true
Lea do you still want me to want you
3. ONLY THE CHILDREN
We keep hurting each other when words can't be easily said
No understanding or reason, just fear and confusion instead
We need hope for the future, and the young need a chance to survive
No one knows the pain that's felt by the innocent, they're
Fighting to stay alive, can no one see the tears in their eyes
Only the children, only the children cry, only the children
Why do those who have plenty ignore those with nothing at all
Why must the ones just beginning, stand with their backs to the wall
They keep asking for answers and we keep on telling them lies
They only want to understand what they feel inside
The hunger that tears them apart
It's the one thing they've known from the start
Only the children, only the children cry, only the children
Only the children, only the children cry, only the children
4. DON'T CHAIN MY HEART
Tired and frozen, I'm under your spell
I thought I knew you, but now I know you well
I wake up beside you, move across your killing floor
I need my freedom and I see an open door
The room is getting smaller and the walls are closin' in
No one's leavin' and nobody's gettin' in
I try to run, I try to hide, I try to tell you what I'm feelin' inside
Should I stay, should I go
You know I wanna touch you, but there's nothing left to hold
Don't chain my heart (don't chain my heart)
Don't chain my soul (don't chain my soul)
Don't chain my heart (don't chain my heart), 'cause you got to let it go
Looks like trouble, the signs are everywhere
I bend a little but you take more than your share
Crimes of passion, crimes of mortal men
It's a deadly attraction and I won't be fooled again, baby
The storm is coming, the winds begin to rise
Please release me from this house of compromise
All day, all night, your love is like an outlaw waiting till the time is right
Nobody's wrong, no one's to blame
Maybe it's just too hot because we're standin' in the flame
Don't chain my heart (don't chain my heart)
Don't chain my soul (don't chain my soul)
Don't chain my heart (don't chain my heart), 'cause you got to let it go
I'm a victim of your pain and jealousy
I feel like a prisoner and you hold the lock and key
We lost our vision, we lost our paradise
But there's still a part of me I refuse to sacrifice
I try to run, I try to hide, I need to tell you what I'm feelin' inside, baby
Should I stay, should I go
You know I wanna touch you, but there's nothing left to hold
Don't chain my heart (don't chain my heart)
Don't chain my soul (don't chain my soul)
Don't chain my heart (don't chain my heart), 'cause you got to let it go
Don't chain my heart (don't chain my heart)
Don't chain my soul (don't chain my soul)
Don't chain my heart (don't chain my heart), 'cause you got to let it go
5. GYPSY TRAIN

Come join the party, come along and be our guest

6. IF IT'S THE LAST NIGHT
I don't know if you'll understand
But I'm hopin' that you'll follow me down to the waterway
I'll be there if you change your mind
Listening to the ticking of the hands on a clock working overtime
If it's the last night it oughta be left for lovin', girl
If it's the last night it oughta be left for lovin', girl
If it's the last night it oughta be left for lovin', girl
Now you're here standing next to me
I've seen your face on every girl that I've held since you went away
It's getting late and I have to know
I'm mending the wings of a heart that was broken not so long ago
If it's the last night it oughta be left for lovin', girl
If it's the last night it oughta be left for lovin', girl
If it's the last night it oughta be left for lovin', girl
[Instrumental break]
If it's the last night it oughta be left for lovin', girl
[repeats 5x]
7. PAMELA
Oh! Yeah.
Side by side, I'll be yours forever
Rain or shine, any kind of weather
There isn't anything I wouldn't do for you
Let's take what's getting old and make it new
Oh, eye to eye, it's a blinding confrontation
You and I, we're a deadly combination
So don't start mixing truth with jealousy
The road we're on is clear as far as I can see
Pamela, don't break this heart of mine
Just remember, it may not heal this time
Pamela, there is no second chance, for the one who leaves it all behind
Black and white always go together
Day and night you're the precious juwel I treasure
Wanting every part of you is not a crime
Or could it be that you're the one who's wrong this time
Pamela, don't break this heart of mine
Just remember, it may not heal this time
Pamela, there is no second chance, for the one who leaves it all behind
All that I love (all that I love)
Thousands of miles away, but always in my heart
Pamela, don't break this heart of mine
Just remember, it may not heal this time
Pamela, there is no second chance, for the one who leaves it all behind
Pamela, don't break this heart of mine
Just remember, it may not heal this time
Pamela, there is no second chance, for the one who leaves it all behind
8. STRANGER IN TOWN
I remember it was late one night
in the middle of a dream
woke up in a pool of sweat
thought I heard a scream
Ran over to the window sill
stuck my head out for a peek
Dressed in black was a man I didn't recognise
running down my back street
My heart skipped a beat
You better watch out, there's a stranger in town
You better watch out, there's a stranger in town
You better watch out when he comes around
Don't make a sound
The morning paper and the head-lines read: Danger to the queen
Buckingham Palace better tighten things up
The son of a bitch is mean.
Vendors on the corner just doin' their job
acting like nothing's new
Scotland Yard's still looking for him
but he doesn't leave a single clue
What can they do?
You better watch out, there's a stranger in town
You better watch out, there's a stranger in town
You better watch out when he comes around
Don't make a sound
Who's this man who fell out of the sky?
What's he done and where's he live?
How can a man who's a criminal be a hero to the kids?
The old couple swear that the Riper's back
they say it's him all right.
The young girl says it's Jesus
and he won't be back again tonight
I wonder who's right?
You better watch out, there's a stranger in town
You better watch out, there's a stranger in town
You better watch out when he comes around
Don't make a sound
You better watch out, there's a stranger in town
You better watch out, there's a stranger in town
You better watch out when he comes around
Don't make a sound
9. CAN'T STAND IT ANY LONGER
Standin' on thin ice
Walkin' on a fine line
Never seem to buy, enough for you
If you're lookin' for a way out
Then you're headed for the right place
Givin' up is something I can't do
Ooh you got sharp claws
Always got your back up
Venom in your eyes, and blood so blue
Hangin' on a black tie
Sippin' on a half shell
Holdin' all the cards, and a joker too
Bridge:
You should have told me sooner
I would have let you go
Now you're driving me crazy
I can't stand it any longer
When you pay the price for freedom
It ain't wrong girl
I can't stand it any longer
Dancin' on hot coals
Playin' with a live wire
Sneakin' out the back door, you're so cool
If you really wanna move on
Then there's nothing left to say
Here's a ticket for the bus stop
I'm no fool
Bridge:
You should have told me sooner
I would have let you go
Now you're driving me crazy
I can't stand it any longer
When you pay the price for freedom
It ain't wrong girl
I can't stand it any longer
(Instrumental brake)
I can't stand it any longer (I can't take it anymore)
When you pay the price for freedom
It ain't wrong girl
I can't stand it, I can't stand it, I can't stand it any longer
I can't stand it any longer (I can't take it anymore)
When you pay the price for freedom
It ain't wrong girl
I can't stand it anymore
I can't take this anymore no
10. JUST CAN'T GET TO YOU
I'm driving' through the rain, just to talk to you again. Please don't run away this tim, until I say what's on my mind.
Tonight I need to stay with you. This time I'm not passing throught. Tear down the walls around your heart, and though I know it's who you are...
I just can't get to you girl. Oh yeah, I just can't get to you. If you won't let me through girl. Oh no, I just can't get to you.
You say you really need me here, so I can't let you disappear. Even though it's getting late, somehow I seem to hesitate.
'Cause I just can't get to you girl. Oh yeah, I just can't get to you...if you won't let me through girl. Oh no, I just can't get to you.
You're afraid that you'll get hurt again. Yes, I knw htat's how it feels. Don't surrender, that's no way to win. Let it go, let me in. 'Cause I just can't get to you. Just can't get to you girl. Oh yeah, just can't get to you. If you won't let me through girl...oh no, I just can't get to you.
Just can't get to you girl. Oh yeah, just can't get to you. You won't let me thfrough girl...oh no, I just can't get to you.
11. TURN BACK
Only the wind sang the words he could hear
Born of the sand washed ashore on a tear
Time wrote the lines on his face like a scroll
Love is a loss to the man with no soul
Run through the darkness he hears - turn back
There's no survivors, you can't turn back
Dreams keep him turning back the years
Raising his sail cast away on his own
Motherless child on a sea all alone
Morpheus calls but they won't lay him down
Creatures of midnight appear with no sound
Run through the darkness he hears - turn back
There's no survivors, you can't turn back
Dreams keep him turning back the years
Run through the darkness, turn back the years, turn back the years
