1. _ I Can't Stop Hurting You
She looked at me with eyes that cut right through me and said
"you must be blind
Let me tell you a little something about yourself
You're the hurtin' kind"
I must admit after the pain and fight
I've a sneaking suspicion that you might be right
I love you, i love you, i love you
But i can't stop hurting you
I want to, i want to
I can't stop hurting you
I can't, i can't
I can't stop hurting you, it's getting bad
I don't know what to do
I see you packing up all your precious little things
That mean so much to you
I hurt you now you're moving out again
But we know just what you'll do
We'll see the error of our ways in crime
With conciliatory promises we'll change this time
I love you, i love you, i love you
But i can't stop hurting you
I want to, i want to
I can't stop hurting you
I can't, i can't
I can't stop hurting you, it's getting bad
I don't know what to do
I love you, i love you
I can't stop hurting you
I need to, i need to
I can't stop hurting you
I can't, i can't
I can't stop hurting you
It's getting bad, i don't know what to do
And when you go i miss you all night
The wounds heal from the scratch and bite
I don't know what's wrong
I don't know what's right
But i can't stop hurting you
I can't stop hurting you
We talk so coolly about the pros and cons
When i get hot headed i just can't hold on
I love you, i love you, i love you
I can't stop hurting you
I need to, i need to
I can't stop hurting you
I can't, i can't
I can't stop hurting you
It's getting bad, i don't know what to do

2. _ Me & Johnny
Lookin' back i'd say we broke a few rules
Left one or two hearts in a ruin
Spent all that precious time doin'
Things we figured that presley might have done
Stole a few cars, never got caught
Started some fights in the scrimmage
We got caught up in the image
Of playing young rebels by the handbook
Looking back i guess we had some attitude
We were gonna be hard and tough
Me & johnny
We're gonna play tonight
It's gonna be alright
We're gonna shine
Look in the mirror watch our faces change
We were gonna be mccartney clones
We skipped school to see the rolling stones
And sang their songs on the train on our way home
We were gonna be like all of them
Uncompromising to the very end
Live for girls, guitars and glory
And someday they'd write our story
Sometimes i think that they clapped in sympathy
But we were gonna be hard and tough
Me & johnny
We're gonna play tonight
It's gonna be alright
We're gonna have some fun tonight
Me & johnny
We may get blood on our face
We're gonna have our place
In the sun
Johnny's still living, back in australia
I hear he's got himself a wife and kids
And i'm still chasing whatever it is
That put me out here on the road in the first place
I think of times, that i cursed out loud
Wishin' i was still runnin' with the same old crowd
Sometimes it can make you cry
Just watching the years roll by
Me & johnny
We're gonna play tonight
It's gonna be alright
We're gonna have fun tonight
Me & johnny
We may get blood on our face
We're gonna have our place
In the sun

3. _ Alyson
Talk about life, imitating art
Well i was sure that i heard the director yell,
"take it from the start"
And i could feel my body crushing yours
Camera dollied into place
Your husband's in the front row, i couldn't look him in the face
Part of the pleasure was that it felt so wrong
But it grew too fast, too strong
Don't you think your friends are talking alyson?
They're blaming it all on me
I'm blaming it all on love
Well don't you think your friends are talking alyson?
Just a little sexual tension
Under the guise of love
Young and tragic, i really felt the part
While we were sweating and screaming tearin' out his heart
Well i was sure i heard the wind and the wires
Crying in sympathy
For star-crossed lovers, ally that ain't you or me
Part of the pleasure was that it felt so wrong
But it grew too fast, too strong
Don't you think your friends are talking alyson?
They're blaming it all on me
I'm blaming it all on love
Well don't you think your friends are talking alyson?
Just a little sexual tension
Under the guise of love
For a limited run in to your local bedroom
We knew the curtain would be coming down soon
Reviews were mixed, the press was unkind
Ally i hope they will forgive us in time, in time
Part of the attraction was that we knew it couldn't last
So we closed our eyes and held on
Don't you thing your friends are talking alyson?
Who were we trying to fool?
What was i thinking of?
Don't you think your friends are talking alyson?
They're blaming it all on me
I'm blaming it all on love
Well don't you think your friends are talking alyson?
Just a little sexual tension
Under the guise of love

4. _ Souls
It all started here, she was a girl form the midwest
He was a stranger in a strange land
Same old story
He came for the glory
She came looking for a young man's hand
But they found bright lights
And endless nights
And men just used her innocent ways
He found it all so pretty, hypnotized by the city
They lost sight of the reason
They lost count of the days
And they were two souls searching for each other
One spirit looking for the other
Caught between a hard hard place and a rock
Two souls searching for heaven
Rolling the dice looking for a seven
To the tick, tick, ticking of time
Gotta beat the clock
Too many nights on the ledge
He acquired a knife-edge
Still the city didn't acquiesce to his demands
Some nights she cried for pity in the heart of the city
The city smacked her hands
He met her one endless night
Her eyes had a light
There was something familiar about the smell of her skin
He held her tighter and tighter
As he danced inside her
She knew from the moment that she let him in
They'd been two souls searching for each other
One spirit looking for the other
Caught between a hard hard place and a rock
Two souls searching for heaven
Rolling the dice looking for a seven
To the tick, tick, ticking of time
Gotta beat the clock
Beat the clock
Beat the clock
Beat the clock
Two souls searching for each other
One spirit looking for the other
Caught between a hard hard place and a rock
Two souls searching for heaven
Rolling the dice looking for a seven
To the tick, tick, ticking of time
Gotta beat the clock

5. _ Like Father Like Son
He was raised in the english way
His daddy taught him respect, he taught him how to pray
They sent him off to boarding school
Where he learned how to live by someone else's rule
And he went to confession
He went to confession
Holy father wash my sins away
He went to confession
He went to confession
Mother mary take the pain away
He read letters from home at night in his bed
And got this uneasy feeling when his father said
Fear of god and the feel of the rod
Will raise a good boy
The fear of god and the feel of the rod
Will raise a good boy
He bought his daddy's car and he learned to drive
And when he left school he got a nine to five
He met the girl and he got his spouse
And they had the child and they got the house
And he went to confession
He went to confession
Holy father wash my sins away
He went to confession
He went to confession
Mother mary take the pain away
He loved his son and he helped him build walls and fronts
He knew he'd heard it before
Someone had said it once
Fear of god and the feel of the rod
Will raise a good boy
The fear of god and the feel of the rod
Will raise a good boy
He raised his son in the english way
And he taught him respect, he taught him how to pray
He sent him off to boarding school
Where he learned how to live by someone else's rules
And he went to confession
He went to confession
Holy father wash my sins away
He went to confession
He went to confession
Mother mary take the pain away
It must be something much deeper than fear or pain
Another child learns a pattern he won't break the chain
Fear of god and the feel of the rod
Will raise a good boy
The fear of god and the feel of the rod
Will raise a good boy
The fear of god and the feel of the rod
Will raise the next boy

6. _ Tiger By The Tail
What a shock it was so surprising
You looked so small and frail
I didn't know what to do
I grabbed the tiger by the tail
I grabbed the tiger by the tail
I grabbed the tiger by the tail
People said that you must be joking
You let emotions run away with you
I realized a little too late
I bit off more than i could chew
I grabbed the tiger by the tail
I grabbed the tiger by the tail
Sometimes you grip it right
And sometimes you fail
I grabbed the tiger by the tail
I grabbed the tiger by the tail
I grabbed the tiger by the tail
At times life can be so enlightening
But it can turn on you
Lately it gets so complicated |
7. _ Motel Eyes
Her come on was direct and strong
From her question to her kiss
She said she'd had a little much to drink
She didn't usually do this
But she was looking for another head to scalp tonight
And she had me right between her sights
I turned to face her as the jukebox clicked off
Playing a favorite song
And she looked pretty in the low lit bar
But something was wrong
I saw a dull red neon sign flashing in her eyes
It said " vacancy," she had motel eyes
They were black as the night
And shone like a star
Fueled by the light
From a medicine jar
I looked again but there was nothing there
But ice in her eyes
There's no disguising motel eyes
She had the angles all down pat
Her average must be high
And though it could have been a pleasure
I just had to say goodbye
Though there was something wicked
'bout the way she flexed her thighs
She scared me with her motel eyes
They were black as the night
And shone like a star
Fueled by the light
From a medicine jar
I looked again but there was nothing there
But ice in her eyes
There's no disguising motel eyes
She started saying something
'bout movement versus size
The sign kept flashing in her motel eyes
They were black as the night
And shone like a star
Fueled by the light
From a medicine jar
I looked again but there was nothing there
But ice in her eyes
There's no disguising motel eyes
Black as the night
Black as the night, motel eyes

8. _ Living In Oz
Ever since i was a kid
I remember having dreams of grandeur
I was gonna be someone, i know what i want
Everybody played second best
And i held you back just like all the rest
I think i got what i want
Everybody's got to fight their demons
And you know i had to fight mine, too
It took a lot out of me, it took a lot out of you
To be living in oz, living in oz
Sometimes the dream can wake you
Living in oz, living in oz
Sometimes the dream can shock you, too
All the money that i spend on you
Doesn't mean a thing if the love's not true
Baby please, i'll get what you want
Can't you tell me you and me ain't lost
I know what i did, i know what it cost
Now i'm yours and i've got what you want
All the fightin' will have been for nothin'
If at the end i can't have you
I'll throw it all away if that's what you want me to do
Living in oz, living in oz
Sometimes the dream can wake you
Living in oz, living in oz
Sometimes the dream can shake you, too
Funny how desire can burn you up inside
And make you commit emotional suicide
Everybody's got the desire to leave their mark
Some just do it over a trail of broken hearts
And all the people that protect and serve
Would disappear if the well dried up
I'm thirsty for affection
Let me drink from your loving cup
Living in oz, living in oz
Sometimes the dream can shock you
Living in oz, living in oz
Sometimes the dream can rock you
Living in oz, living in oz
Sometimes the dream can shake you
Living in oz, living in oz
Sometimes the dream can wake you, too

9. _ Human Touch
Everybody's talking to computers,
They're all dancing to a drum machine
I know i'm living on the outside
Scared of getting caught between
I'm so cool and calculated alone in the modern world
But sally has a hard time holding back
The alley to her heart is a beaten track
She's got the love monkey riding on her back
We all need the human touch
We all need the human touch
I need it the human touch
We all need the human touch
We all need it, and i need it too
You know, i got my walls, sally calls them prison cells
Sometimes i need protection, i've got the chains
I got the warning bells
I sit so snug and isolated alone in the modern world
But sally has a hard time holding back
The alley to her heart is a beaten track
She's never out of love, yeah she's got the knack
You've got love i want it, come on girl
We all need the human touch
We all need the human touch
I need it the human touch
We all need the human touch
We all need it, and i need it too
Human touch
Human touch
Human touch
Human touch
I'm so scared and isolated in the modern world
We all need
We all need the human touch
We all need the human touch
We all need the human touch
I need it the human touch
We all need human touch
I need it the human touch
We all need it, and i need it too
Human touch

10. _ Affair Of The Heart
Heart in my mouth; pulse in my head
Mercury rising into the red
The smell of your skin can light up all the fires in me
Hungry to touch, i'm eager to please
Out of control and i hand you the keys
Every night i am burning to make love to you
But don't try to tell me you think it's all physical
It goes much deeper than that
You ought to know it's an affair of the heart
It's an affair of the heart
It's an affair of the heart
Have a little blind faith, believe
It's an affair of the heart
When we make love, it's a passionate thing
You shudder and shake, sink your teeth in my skin
I almost believe you were made to be played by my hands
And you got the power; it amazes me still
How you play my emotions with consummate skill
I don't have to look any further than into your eyes
So don't try to tell me you think it's just physical
It goes way deeper than that
You better know it's an affair of the heart
It's an affair of the heart
It's an affair of the heart
Have a little blind faith, believe
It's an affair of the heart
I'm the controller and i want to touch you and seize you
And make you mine |
