I call you up See d'you wanna come around Though I know You're probably gonna let me down I won't give up Trying to turn your heart around Can't you see When you knock me down I'll just rebound I promise you the world The moon and all the stars above I've got it for ya girl Why d'you have to act so tough Can't you see I'm all filled up with love And I wanna give it all to you Tonight All right Baby ain't that enough I never give a false impression I never tell a lie I ain't the one who's messing round now I ain't that kind of guy When you need me I'll be standing by And I wanna give it all to you etc CHORUS Ain't that enough To take away the pain Ain't that enough To make the bad times good again Don't it fire up your emotions To know you've got my true devotion Baby ain't that enough Baby ain't that enough I promise you the world etc repeat CHORUS Ain't That Enough

Save me for a rainy day The sun ain't always gonna be there for ya You'll be sorry for a long time baby if you think that way Love's an easy game to play But you ain't always gonna come out the winner Some guy's gonna take you in and make you pay Girl you'd better start looking for someone who cares Give me a sign I'm not wasting my time i'll be there CHORUS You'll be let down And there'll be no-one else around To mend it with a kiss Then you're gonna wish you'd thought of me And saved me for a rainy day...saved me for a rainy day Save me for a rainy day Life ain't always gonna be good to ya You'll be the one left feeling blue when the sky turns grey Yeah the future starts today But I can't wait forever to be near you One word is all it's gonna take to make me stay CHORUS You don't need me now Not while it's going good anyhow You don't need me now Wait and see CHORUS END

V1 I touched your face And traced the lines Growing old Is the crime of crimes So hold on tight To the hands of time He'll lead us to The edge of forever V2 When darkness fell In the fading light Just out of reach And out of sight Chasing shadows In the shades of night Dawns chorus sang As we passed on by CHORUS We danced the dance In the moonlight Left footprints on our grave Forever young was a dream Our tears of sorrow gave Forever young was a promise The reaper never made V3 From youth of spring To autumn of life We lived in peace Died free from strife The summer sun Hid the truth in lies While winter whispered Her last goodbye BRIDGE Walk with me Come walk with me Soon be free We'll soon be free There ain't no place I'd rather be When the sandman Calls your name CHORUS

We conjured up A magic night The stars were right For casual romance We filled the cup In our delight And chanced a bite Of sweet circumstance Tricked by your charms My fate Trickled through my hands I loaned out my heart Only for a day Right back at the start I wanted it that way I can't believe I fell Under your spell x 2 Your whispered words Softly creep While I'm asleep You subjugate my soul Like clay in your hands I fold Now I'm yours to mould I loaned out my heart Not for you to keep Shallow at the start Now I'm in too deep I can't believe I fell Under your spell etc

Not A Slave 04:03
Ain't nothing quite so ugly As the face of a clock at dawn Another day, like any other To a king you'll play the pawn They'll cross your palms with silver While theirs are greased with gold Another day, another dollar Kills the dreams of wealth you hold It’s a blink and you missed it journey From the cradle to the grave The outcome never changes For the fearful or the brave Cast off your chains and shackles Be what you want to be The world don’t give a damn right now Be a free man, not a slave Yeah be a free man, not a slave Sharp suits hide dark secrets Your conscience cannot keep Another day as cannon fodder What you've sown you'll never reap Your masters take the credit But never share the blame Another day why do you bother When it’s you who bears the shame It’s a blink and you missed it journey From the cradle to the grave The outcome never changes For the fearful or the brave Cast off your chains and shackles Be what you want to be The world don’t give a damn right now Be a free man, not a slave Yeah be a free man, not a slave And ain't nothing quite so ugly As the face of a clock at dawn Another day, like any other Until your final breath is drawn

I'm Over You 05:19
Here you are, open as day Here am I, too scared to say OK you win OK I give in OK come in Here am I, just like before Here you are, always so sure That I'll say I give in I'll say come in I'll say you win CHORUS I'm over you no matter what you do It's understood I'm over you again This time for good SOLO Repeat chorus BRIDGE At moments like this It's hard to resist temptation's glow And who can explain, There's comfort in pain you know Here you are, dark as the night Here am I, too tired to fight OK come in OK you win OK I give in

V Tell me this is not a dream and I'm not gonna wake up all alone again Tell me you'll still be right here beside me when the night is through I wanna hear those words whipered soft and low I wanna watch your lips repeating them and then I'll know PRE Take me in your arms say it again Baby don't hold back Pull me close and love me again Make me believe CH It's really me lying here with you It's really me holding you It ain't no fairytale, it ain't no fantasy It's really me V I think of the times I've been let down and I wonder if I'll ever find somebody new I can feel the pain I hide deep down inside me start to push on through I never set my expectations up too high Another broken promise comes as no surprise any more It isn't easy now to put my fears aside To let myself go When I find myself falling in love again. PRE CH

Green Light 03:31
I got the green light tonight Right from the top I'm on the move and I don't ever want to stop I looked in your eyes And much to my surprise I got the green light to go all the way I got the green light tonight No holds are barred Yes you were mine once you had let down your guard Here in my arms You showed me all your charms I got the green light to go all the way Nothing can stop us now We're on the road to paradise The brakes are off We're all revved up I don't need telling twice BREAK Don't think you're gonna stop us now It's a one way trip to paradise Engine room full steam ahead There'll be no compromise I got the green light tonight The flags are down We've gone too far to turn this keen machine around You said "Life's too short for having second thoughts." I got the green light to go all the way

You took all you wanted from me Let me down without a thought Playin' fancy free Now you say you want me back But I've got no more to give Leave me my dignity It's not just to spite you, you see I ain't one for playing games Or acting casually They say revenge tastes sweet But I ain't a bitter man Leave me my dignity And if my hide's got tougher It happens that way It's the deepest wound that leaves the biggest scar It hurts to see you suffer When I turn you away Your broken heart Tears me apart But baby there's no way we can make a new start Now I am finally free I waited long enough to see How much you cared for me You had me on my knees Now I'm on my feet again Leave me my dignity

Forty-one high summer The hottest time of the year Holidays are fun baring your body in the sun Everyone's gonna come and make a party down here Holidays are fun baring your body in the sun And I'll be there on a bench Smoking a cigarette I'll be with all my friends Under a jacaranda Thirty-one brandy sours A hundred bottles of beer Holidays are fun drinking cheap brandy in the sun Currant bun, happy hour Revelation is near Holidays are fun drinking cheap brandy in the sun And I'll be there on a bench Passing the bagaceira I'll be with all my friends Under a jacaranda Twenty-one sweet Paloma Spends all day on the beach Holidays are fun baring your body in the sun With her friend Melanoma Burning up like a hot-house peach Holidays are fun baring your body in the sun And I'll be there on a bench, on a bench Smoking a cigarette, cigarette Watching the pretty girls, pretty girls Under a shady tree, under a jacaranda

Pretty Blue 03:16
13.
There's only one boy and girl in a perfect world They ain't got time for anybody else There's no malign temptation in a perfect world They say the gods help those who help themselves I wouldn't say that every move I make is calculated I ain't a logical man at all But when I saw you standing there I wasn't pulling out my hair Trying to figure out that you and me would make a winning pair One boy one girl In a perfect world One boy one girl In a perfect world It would be easy I hate it when the straightforward things in life get complicated I ain't a devious kind of man at all I never lie it's understood And I wouldn't even if I should Just to make you see that you and me could add up to something good One boy one girl In a perfect world One boy one girl In a perfect world It would be easy There's a simple solution It's gonna work out fine With a tidy conclusion If you'll be mine SOLO CHORUS END

Funny how the same things seem so different day by day A little cloud passes overhead and everything turns to grey What you see depends on what you're looking for sometimes What you get and what you find might reflect your state of mind Everybody has a strong reaction to the mood And that evolves in a definite way, sometimes subtle, sometimes crude Are you revealing what you're feeling or are you building a wall? Put it up or let it down, we can all hear nature's call Stand tall   Embrace it all See the girl in the yellow dress standing in the rain In a city bar at midnight the fever's running high The day's end is drawing near, time is tickin on by Another chance to leave your mark is slipping through your hands A little action, satisfaction, completion of a plan Stand tall Embrace it all Then the girl in the yellow dress walks into the room SOLO She takes her line from no-one else She's got the mind to be herself Any way the wind blows she never bends But she won't break A brighter day is fast approaching all's becoming clear A time to shine, don't get behind. Set aside your fear If you don't learn you haven't earned the right to criticise If you do then I bet the world looks better through your eyes Stand tall Embrace it all There's a girl in a yellow dress waiting in the park

Jump right on in Baby don't be shy Jump right on in The fever's running high The time is right To dim the light Give your man a try I've been waiting for a long time baby For you to come around I bought you things And a big diamond ring I really went to town Now I'm ready for a little bit of loving So let your hair hang down Jump right on in Baby don't be shy Jump right on in The fever's running high The time is right To dim the light Give your man a try Now you've got me going baby You sure know how to tease With your little red dress And all the rest I'm begging you darling please It's getting hot And I'm coming to the top Now ain't the time to freeze Jump right on in Baby don't be shy Jump right on in The fever's running high The time is right To dim the light Give your man a try Come on girl It'll make you feel good I think you're gonna like it Yeah I know you would Jump right on in Baby don't be shy Jump right on in The fever's running high The time is right To dim the light Give your man a try

We're gonna do it all over again We're gonna chase that star We don't know what that first fiery glow Might finally portend We're going through it all over again We're gonna play that card We won't be told there might be no pot of gold Down at the rainbow's end CHORUS From one tentative kiss To unrelenting bliss From candlelight until the break of day Will paradise be found Once the flame dies down Or is forever just something to say SOLO repeat CHORUS Looks like we blew it all over again Looks like our leading car Will finish last It took the road too fast And didn't make the bend
