Conquest

I know this feeling inside
Has just made up my mind
I'm gonna take this chance
And do what's in my heart
You always said that
You'd stand by me
And help me get along
So understand
I must do what's in my heart

I know this feeling inside
Has helped me to carry on
So as the days go by
And the nights that never end
You play the clubs
And you play the game
The next day you will find
You'll have to try and
Please that fool again
Don't you know that

Fools play at games
Don't you know that
Fools play at games
And i know that
I'm not afraid of you

Day after day i feel this way
That i need to be moving on
You know i depend on you
Don't get me wrong
I'll throw the dice and
I play the game
And hope we get along
Even then i won't be fooled again

So i've read your words and
I've signed my name
But i can't make up my mind
If you really care or you're
Playing your games

Don't let love make a fool of you
Love is meant to tellin' truth
And never any lies
Came to me by seein' truth
In each other's eyes
Each other's eyes

What kind of a fool
Do you think i am?
'cos i have no money
Does it mean i'm half a man?
You know that i will give you all
Give you all that i can

You're lyin', tellin' me
What i should be
You're lyin', tellin' everyone it's me
You're lyin', tellin' me
What i should be
You're lyin', lyin', lyin', lyin'

Tellin' lies can only break you in two
You tell the biggest solo
What do you hope to gain?
If i were you then i would
Try to make amends
I'll tell all my friends

You livin' a world of dreams
But it's too late to change
Your way of life, it seems
So you just carry on
The best way you know how
You know how

You make it all sound easy
Now you've tasted all my wine
I never wanted to hear the news
That you'd found another man
But it's hard to see
What you want from me
It's not easy to be in-between
It's now up to you to
Make the move this time

But it ain't easy when you
Don't know where to turn
And it ain't easy
But you take the chance
The final chance to learn
Yes, to learn
That it ain't easy when you
Don't know where to turn
And it ain't easy, so you take a look
Another look at life - look at life

¡®cause it ain't what you've got
In the palm of your hand
And it's not what you'll get
From another man
That will last you
The rest of your life my friend

Monday morning's waiting
Take a look at what you see
Make the most of your life
Don't keep the pages clean
Baby, now you've got this chance
Don't leave me out
It's so hard when
You're in-between
What you need and
What may never be

It ain't easy ...

I'm at the point of no return
I'm watching the candle burn
Both ends
There's a lesson we
Both can learn - this time
So if you wanna make my day
There's something
You've gotta say
Now please don't laugh
And turn away - this time
I don't wanna make a fuss
But this is the time for us
And i ain't gonna miss the buss
This time

No return
So there'll be no turning back
Once i know that
You'll be by my side
No return
Maybe you'll give me all the love
That you always felt
You had to hide
No return
I've come a thousand miles
Across the ocean
But that ain't half
As far as my emotion
Now i've reached
The point of no return

While on my way down the avenue
I had to stop for a drink or two
Or three
Now not that i was stalling you
For time
It's just i wanted to feel my best
And i almost passed the test
I need your lovin' to do the rest
This time

No return - so please don't ever do
What you've done
So many times before
No return
Because i've made up my mind
That this time i'll make it
Thru' your door
No return - i rode above the clouds
So far below me
But didn't get as high as
When you hold me
Now i've reached
The point of no return

I'm at the point of no return
I'm watching the candle burn
Both ends
There's a lesson we
Both can learn - this time
I don't wanna make a fuss
But this is the time for us
And i ain't gonna miss the buss
This time

No return
So there'll be no turning back
Once i know that
You'll be by my side
No return
Maybe you'll give me all the love
You always felt you had to hide
No return - i rode above the clouds
So far below me
But didn't get as high as
When you hold me
Now i've reached
The point of no return

No return - so please don't ever do
What you've done
So many times before
No return
Because i've made up my mind
That this time i'll make it
Thru' your door
No return
I've come a thousand miles
Across the ocean
But that ain't half
As far as my emotion
Now i've reached
The point of no return

Out on the street, dead on my feet
At the mercy of the stone-cold night
It's hard to compete
In a dead-end street
With frustration in your line of sight
Do you ever stop to think
Do you ever stop at all
Do you have the time to feel
And if you do
Do you know the feeling's real

Followed a sign that
Pointed the way
And i found myself
Right back at that start
I like to feel good
I've tried feeling sad
But i can't stand a broken heart
Don't wanna wait till my dyin' day
To realise
I guess i'm lucky in
A strange kinda way
'cause it's clear before my eyes

A grey cloud they say
Hides a surprise
But it rained until i lost my belief
Just close your eyes
We'll show you the way
But i believe i've lost my faith
One man speaks and one man does
While another soul wields the sword
I hear you all, but i still can't see
Just who it is
Who speaks the chosen word

Feelings, empty feelings
Prayin', hopin', needin'
Just when i wanted to hold you
You're leavin', you're leavin'
Leavin', you're leavin'

I remember those magic nights
Those nights when it
All seemed right
But i knew that by mornin'
You'd be gone
And though you tell me
That it's not for long
It ain't easy here holdin' on
You gotta tell me where i stand

'cause either you don't give a damn
Or you don't even care to pretend
Or you won't spare a thought
Though you know
It must come to an end

You'd better know that
I've made up my mind
I gotta high of a different kind
And it's gonna take me
Where i wanna be
Sure i'll miss ya but i gotta choose
You can't believe that
I came here to lose
And you ain't a winner
That's easy to see

So i'll see you around or i'll write
And i'll send you some love
'cause where i wanna go
There ain't nothing to do but move

I was waiting for somebody
This afternoon
Hope that she remembered
Our rendezvouz
And when she didn't show
Just like yesterday
I do the last, i'll find another way

One night i saw the stranger
Across the hall
I knew he was the reason
Why she didn't call
I wish i had imagined
Or dreamt the lot
But the heart didn't choose
The pain i've got

Now she' turning me inside out
Upside down
And me heart is all a roundabout
Spinnin' round

She's turnin' me inside out
Inside out
She's turnin' me inside out
Inside out

Now he's got all so melt
With a diamond ring
And she was thinking through
Almost anything
She's like a shadow going up
Seventh avenue
But so what, she's only going
Where she's didn't to

I just got one thing to say
Just before i go
Since he was the offender
I want her to know
Now my mind has got me the day
I'm watching to
I'll never raise a thought
Of what she'd done
